The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Chapter 1386: Chapter 134–135 Life Simulation–Secrets of Fire Country Chapter 1386: Chapter 134–135 Life Simulation–Secrets of Fire Country Pei Xuanjing was brought back to the Royal Capital of Fire Country by Prince Sui, and this did not cause any disturbance, nor did it attract much attention.

After all, Prince Sui enjoyed making friends and often invited acquaintances to the Royal Capital as guests, an event that had happened countless times.

If in the beginning people wondered if Prince Sui had any ulterior motives, as the years passed and nothing happened, everyone assumed that it was simply in Prince Sui’s nature.

The fact that Pei Xuanjing entered the Royal Capital was even disregarded by the King of Fire Country himself, even though Pei Xuanjing was a member of the human race, and was a being from the God Clan poised at the pinnacle of the Demi-God Realm beginning to attempt ascending to the Divine Position.

In the eyes of the others, a mortal clan cultivator from the Communicating with God Realm was vastly inferior in status to themselves; although not to be considered an ant, he was certainly not worthy of their attention.

Thus, Pei Xuanjing temporarily resided in Prince Sui’s residence in the Royal Capital, and his appearance did not cause any disturbance. Even when several princes of Fire Country came to see Prince Sui, they completely overlooked Pei Xuanjing’s presence.

After all, Pei Xuanjing was merely from the Mortal Clan, while they were from the God Clan. Their regard for Prince Sui was because of the King of Fire Country, as well as their shared feelings of growth and friendship. As for others from the Mortal Clan, they were simply not worth mentioning.

Prince Sui even comforted Pei Xuanjing once about this, hoping his friend would not mind. Pei Xuanjing simply laughed it off.

Being ignored like this might anger others, especially a young one fresh to the world, but for a seasoned old monster like Pei Xuanjing, it hardly mattered.

Indeed, even considering his life simulation experiences, Pei Xuanjing was only a few thousand years old, not having lived ten thousand years yet, but to the beings of Fire Country he was still considered an old monster.

In this world, apart from truly ascending to the Divine Position and entering the Divine Court, which allowed for a lifespan of over ten thousand years, even those demi-gods, born of the God Clan, would not live beyond five thousand years.

Pei Xuanjing’s aim in entering the Royal Capital was to come closer to understanding the civilization of this world, its cultivation system, and its many secrets.

Previously, as he roamed between the heavens and the earth, he was mostly contemplating the nature of this world. After all, the structure of those tribes was too primitive. Even if some tribes produced strong beings in the Divine Fire Realm, their breakthroughs were accidental and not reproducible even by themselves, let alone transferring to others.

Only these God Clans, these true kingdoms established by the God Clan, were qualified to record all these matters and pass them down, thus organizing a relatively perfected, systematic knowledge.

Initially, even when Pei Xuanjing arrived in the Royal Capital, he was still thinking about how to acquire this knowledge and whether he needed to give something in return, given that his identity was just from the Mortal Clan and innately rejected by the God Clan.

But, by a fortuitous coincidence, he met Sui, whose authority, although insufficient to impart many cultivation methods to Pei Xuanjing, allowed him access to some books and other records not related to cultivation.

Indeed, just as Pei Xuanjing realized upon first arriving in this world, the existence of the Divine Court suppressed the development of the world, not just the development of the cultivation system but also of civilization in general.

The lengthy lifespans of the God Clan made them less urgent about many matters, driving slowly and neglecting many things.

If it were an ordinary Human Tribe Dynasty, due to their shorter lifespans, they would document many matters, especially important ones, and pass them down as a legacy for future generations.

But for the God Clan, a strong person in the Demi-God Realm could live up to five thousand years, a normal individual in the Communicating with God Realm could live several hundred years, and a strong-blooded member of the God Clan, even in the Communicating with God Realm, could live up to a thousand years.

This span of time was enough for their descendants to slowly grow up; for the human race, what needed to be recorded and passed down was only the personal experiences of some strong beings of the God Clan, which they chose not to set down in writing but to keep in their memories and pass down orally.

Thus, they did not value these textual records, considering them incomplete and fragmentary, and likely to be overlooked.

If a being of the God Clan really wanted to understand something, their first reaction would not be to look up textual records but to seek out their elders, to find those ancient beings and ask them directly.

However, for Pei Xuanjing, even though these records were incomplete and fragmentary, they were more than sufficient for him. He could use these pieces to assemble a rough understanding of the historical transitions, thereby reinforcing his own deductions and guesses.

Pei Xuanjing was not a historian; for him, delving into these things was merely to aid in gaining a deeper understanding of the historical changes and some key matters in this world.

Some things require deep understanding to unveil their secrets; otherwise, from an external perspective, it is no more than looking at flowers in the fog.
