The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Chapter 676: Chapter 626: Reincarnation?

“No matter how you look at it, the result has already been determined. Do you really think that if I write a memorial to the throne, it would change the Emperor’s insistence?” Mr. Gu, Wang Boan, asked with a calm gaze.

After many years of ups and downs in the bureaucratic life, Wang Boan was no longer the naive young man he was before. As for the emperor of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, Wang Boan understood him very well. The emperor was not a King who easily listens to advice.

The reason why he wanted opinions from officials in the court on the cooperation with the Witch Deity Teaching was not to know something in particular, but rather to test the attitudes of the various ministers of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty and to know which faction they belonged to.

Therefore, Wang Boan did not really care about writing this memorial because it was meaningless. The emperor wouldn’t care about its content, he would only care about which faction you belonged to.

The position he currently held, with millions of troops under his control, could not easily shake the emperor’s position under the current Divine Dynasty’s system. However, the environment in which Wang Boan found himself was quite sensitive.

With these thoughts and decisions, he naturally had no interest in writing the memorial. Persuading was useless and might invite suspicion from the emperor.

“Bo’an, it seems you will have to write the memorial this time, whether you want to or not.”

At this moment, someone entered the army tent and handed a letter to Gu Ji.

After Gu Ji finished reading the letter, a strange smile appeared on his face. He spoke to Wang Boan.

“Brother Gu, why do you say so?” Wang Boan frowned.

Without speaking, Gu Ji handed the letter to him. After reading it, Wang Boan sighed helplessly, “It’s even worse than that.”

The message on the letter was simple. It was a message passed down by Wang Qiong, the Minister of the Ministry of War. The emperor had dispatched Yan Weizhong, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, to personally tell Wang Boan to respond to the emperor’s decision.

So after reading the message, Gu Ji said that regardless of whether Wang Boan thought this matter was meaningless, he still needed to give a response.

Wang Boan was also a little helpless. He did not expect the emperor to be so obstinate this time, even sending Yan Weizhong personally. Given Yan Weizhong’s level of devotion to the emperor’s orders, it seemed he would have to give the emperor a reply this time.

…

As Wang Boan was anxiously working out a response to the emperor, Pei Xuanjing had quietly returned to Shenxiao Mountain after leaving the Taoist Academy alone.

Shenxiao Mountain was once one of the famous mountains in the world. As the Heaven and Earth recovered, powerful being like Pei Xuanjing resided and attracted innumerable Heaven and Earth Essence Qi, which made Shenxiao Mountain even more prestigious and suitable for cultivation.

With the Heaven and Earth reviving to their peak, Pei Xuanjing, being a powerful entity in this world, had been favored by the will of the Daming World. Therefore, Shenxiao Mountain naturally received more blessing from Heaven and Earth, turning into one of the treasured cultivation places in the world and one of the Taoist Holy Lands.

The moment Pei Xuanjing descended onto Shenxiao Mountain, even though he did not deliberately alarm anyone, many cultivators in the Spirit Realm stationed at Shenxiao Mountain understood the arrival of their leader.

Not because these Spirit Realm cultivators were too strong, or that they could easily sense Pei Xuanjing’s every move, but due to the change in the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi around them, and the arrival of the unspoken will of Heaven and Earth, which made them feel that understanding the Taoist Skill became easier.

At this moment, due to the continuous connection between the Small Thousand World Pei Xuanjing opened up and the Daming World, although Pei Xuanjing never agreed to merge the Small Thousand World into the Daming World, the divine favor he received from the Daming World gradually strengthened his authority.

It seemed like the will of the Heaven and Earth of the Daming World was tempting Pei Xuanjing, trying to attract him with these continuously strengthening authorities, hoping that he would offer the Small Thousand World in the end, as a boost for the promotion of the Daming World.

The moment he descended to Shenxiao Mountain, the Divine favor brought by him naturally triggered the transformation of Shenxiao Mountain. While this transformation is subtle, it is quite noticeable for the many cultivators in their cultivation. They almost instantly understood everything.

Pei Xuanjing also easily understood this. He didn’t intentionally isolate the divine favor, since, at his realm, if he wanted to, he could completely isolate this force, at least not let ordinary cultivators easily perceive it.

He didn’t summon any residing cultivators of Shenxiao Mountain, but just sent them spiritual consciousness, asking them to calmly cultivate. Then, he entered his own seclusion place.

After entering his seclusion place, Pei Xuanjing finally calmed down and recalled the various matters discussed recently with the Witch God Sect Leader.

Eventually, the two reached a cooperation agreement. Although the terms offered differed from what the Witch God Sect Leader initially anticipated, their cooperation was still as expected. At least, for now, both parties were very satisfied.

In addition to the conditions proposed by Pei Xuanjing, the Witch God Sect Leader also needed to provide Pei Xuanjing with enough Heaven and Earth Spiritual Materials and research on Divine Arts and Secret Skills.

Although the total value of these items was somewhat inferior compared with the path which increased the success rate of the Eightfold Spirit Realm cultivators ascending to the omnipotent Nine Realms of Spirit, those things were of no value to Pei Xuanjing. Only the things most suited to him were the most valuable.

“However, according to the Witch God Sect Leader, many powerful beings of the Ancient times have already fallen. Even if they have left behind things that rely on the survival of forbidden places and blessed lands, it’s no longer them. They are more akin to a newborn.” Pei Xuanjing thought of the words of the Witch God Sect Leader and pondered carefully.

For cultivators who cannot achieve longevity, especially those at the top, once they find their lifespan nearing its end, they naturally wish to go through the cycle of rebirth, hoping to live another life.

The initial fragmentation of the Netherworld Book was caused by powerful beings constantly fighting for it, hoping to use its power to live another life.

However, according to the Witch God Sect Leader, they didn’t count these as a success. Even if there were powerful beings using the Page of the Netherworld Book for supposed reincarnation, in reality, they had already forgotten their past lives. This life was more like a new life, with no major entanglements to their past selves.

It was more like a similar leaf growing from a tree, not completely identical.
