The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings - Chapter 649
Chapter 649: Chapter 599: The power of Gods?
In the center of this scroll, a thunderbolt is like a thunder dragon, roaming and circling within the scroll. This thunderbolt transformed into a thunder dragon filled with vitality and destruction, making this scroll even more lifelike.
Pei Xuanjing was sitting on the cloud platform, clad in a cyan Taoist robe that danced with the wind. His long hair fluttered elegantly, eyes slightly closed, exuding calmness and tranquility. He appeared exceptionally ethereal, giving off the feeling of soaring with the wind, on the verge of ascending immortality.
Although Pei Xuanjing was seated here, he had already journeyed millions of miles away in spirit. His spiritual consciousness split into thousands, descending inside the statues of all branches of Taoist academies across the Daming World. Whether it was state Daoist Prefecture or remote small cities, Pei Xuanjing’s divided spiritual consciousness descended.
The moment his spiritual consciousness descended, those originally dull statues suddenly seemed to acquire spirituality and everything around them fell into his senses.
In Pei Xuanjing’s mind, countless bright lights blinked as if he were stargazing. These specks of light each represented a location of the Daoist academy and where Pei Xuanjing’s consciousness had fallen.
These countless lights, in Pei Xuanjing’s mind, turned into numerous twinkling stars, continuously connecting together, slowly forming a vast light web. It was as if the entire contour of the Daming World had been sketched out and was appearing in Pei Xuanjing’s mind.
Through these dots of starlight, whenever he focused more on a spot, he could clearly perceive everything around the branch academy, perceive the discourse and actions of the students in the academy, and even the movements of the common people and martial artists in the city.
“It is said that the divine can descend their spirits to observe everything in the world. What I’m doing now seems to have some early signs of that!” Pei Xuanjing thought with emotion in his heart.
In Pei Xuanjing’s understanding, the divine knew everything. They could easily ascertain the prayers and hopes of their believers, then decide to issue revelations and blessings.
Although Pei Xuanjing was not quite able to do everything like the divine, using these statues in the branch academies to descend his spirit avatars, he could have a similar effect.
In his view, with the continuous progression of his abilities, one day in the future, he might achieve that.
At this moment, Pei Xuanjing suddenly realized, rumors had it that divine care a lot about the number of their believers and whether they could obtain the abundant Power of Incense Fire.
“Perhaps for many divine beings, the support of believers and the Power of Incense Fire is the foundation of their divinity…”, he thought to himself.
However, at present, he was merely getting a glimpse of this and could not clearly see it all, only speculating and pondering by his own imagination.
Of course, even so, for Pei Xuanjing, it was a breakthrough discovery. He didn’t have many clues to verify this in a world without traces of divine beings. Therefore, he had to rely on himself to explore gradually.
What Pei Xuanjing could do now was to follow the memories of his previous life, as well as the clues left by cultivators of this world, to slowly piece together an impression of the immortals, and then gradually attempt, sum up experience.
With Pei Xuanjing suppressing and killing the avatar of the Taixu Venerable this time, it was enough to make many forces of the Sky Wasteland hesitate and quiet down. They wouldn’t easily make a move without figuring out Pei Xuanjing’s true strength.
As for Canglang Palace and Taixu Sect, they will need some time to descend from the Sky Wasteland.
Therefore, for Pei Xuanjing, this was a unique opportunity. He could perfectly seize this opportunity and begin to experiment with his Divine Domain and Divine Kingdom plan.
Pei Xuanjing had long planned for this Divine Kingdom initiative. He made preparations when he launched more branch academies. Now, after several decades, everything was ready, and it was time for the results to emerge.
In the last life simulation, as the Human Emperor of the human race, Pei Xuanjing arranged the entire Human Domain, establishing Divine Temples, and tried to early stage plan and solidify the Divine Kingdom.
Although he didn’t succeed in the last life’s simulation, it was a great enhancement for Pei Xuanjing’s own strength. Besides, it also allowed him to accumulate experience, in order to better rectify his plan.
During this period, Pei Xuanjing continuously calculated, decomposing every step of his plan in his mind. He analyzed every possible mishap for each step and the corresponding remedial measures, until now, when everything was finally prepared.
Everything is ready now, just waiting for the right wind to blow.
“Deer Elder, come to me!” Pei Xuanjing’s voice fell into Deer Elder’s ears in the Daoist Academy.
Hearing Pei Xuanjing’s summons, Deer Elder immediately put down what he was doing and appeared before Pei Xuanjing in the blink of an eye.
“What is your command, Master?” Deer Elder respectfully asked Pei Xuanjing.
Pei Xuanjing said: “I have some things for you to do…”
After a long time, having received Pei Xuanjing’s instructions, the Deer Elder nodded solemnly and said, “Please rest assured, Master. I will surely not disappoint you.”
“No worries, do your best.” Pei Xuanjing waved his hand nonchalantly, instructing him, “This matter might require some manpower. Go find Pang Hong for this; he will surely assist you wholeheartedly.”
After the previous battle, Pang Hong had contact with Deer Elder. Although he did not know the true strength of Deer Elder, he was extremely shocked to know that the other party was Xuanjing’s mount, a Demon King from the Demon Race.
Considering that Pei Xuanjing had been retreating at the Tiandu Daoist Academy for many years without showing much sign of leaving, Pang Hong was surprisingly and curious about when and how he had tamed a Demon King of the Demon Race.
Of course, Pang Hong also knew that his master’s abilities were vast and inscrutable, perhaps he had done this quietly at some point in time.
Having received Pei Xuanjing’s instructions, Deer Elder immediately headed to the Shenxiao Sect’s base outside the Daming domain to find Pang Hong. He indeed needed Pang Hong’s cooperation for some things.
The task that Pei Xuanjing indicated this time wasn’t hard but somewhat cumbersome, requiring enough manpower to push it forward. With Pang Hong now controlling the Shenxiao Sect affairs and the support he had received from the Taoist School, accomplishing this task would be quite effortless.
Pei Xuanjing watched Deer Elder’s departing figure, a faint smile on his lips. What he needed him to do was not difficult, just a bit complex.
Even though he had used his spiritual consciousness to grasp all the Daoist academies within the Daming domain, there were still many inaccuracies which could have considerable influence.
