The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Chapter 602: Chapter 552: Life Simulation – The Human Emperor Seal

To be born with the cosmos, and be indestructible as long as the cosmos exists; even if one experiences a temporary death, as long as the mark imprinted in the cosmos persists, resurrection is inevitable.

To Pei Xuanjing, the power of this Heavenly Mandate was hardly an exaggeration. If anything, it seemed somewhat understated.

Still, should he really accept this Heavenly Mandate? Pei Xuanjing held doubts in his heart.

Actually, when he hesitated, Pei Xuanjing knew for certain that he was reluctant to accept this Heavenly Mandate.

Perhaps, for the indigenous creatures of this desolate world, absorbing and refining the Heavenly Mandate to achieve eternal life and tremendous power, and sharing the same life and death as the cosmos is seen as a coveted opportunity. After all, in comparison to the endless lifespan of the cosmos, even the lives of the most powerful species and individuals ultimately have an end.

It was not the same for Pei Xuanjing. Although the idea of sharing eternal life with the cosmos was tempting, the lifespan of the cosmos eventually ends too. Once a Heavenly Mandate is refined, it signifies a complete binding with the cosmos. When the day comes that the cosmos decays, he would decay along with it.

This is a future Pei Xuanjing cannot endure. For him, even if he was to pursue eternal life, it would not be the one bound with the cosmos.

He aspires to ascend the Immortal Path, to become a True Immortal whose existence surpasses that of the cosmos; despite the cosmos decaying, he would remain.

Being in possession of a simulator, Pei Xuanjing had boundless confidence. He believed he could ascend the Immortal Path, possessing eternal life, thus rendering the immortality offered by the Heavenly Mandate beneath his consideration.

Year 222: Pei Xuanjing did not want this type of longevity. His lack of enthusiasm for refining the Heavenly Mandate did not mean that other powerful beings from various races would feel the same. For many powerful beings of the desolate world, absorbing the Heavenly Mandate to acquire a Divine Position and sharing life with the cosmos was a colossal desire too great to overlook.

All of these strong beings hastened to refine the Heavenly Mandate to seize more power and status. Attracted by this offer, the powerful beings from strong races sought to attack those races whose members had the Heavenly Mandate, aiming to seize more Heavenly Mandates to enhance their power and status.

Once again, war ignited. However, this time, every race had a specific target in mind: they aimed for those races with the Heavenly Mandate.

The Dragon Clan, Phoenix Clan, and Qilin Clan, despite their losses, did not attack each other. Instead, they chose to target the slightly inferior races to seize their Heavenly Mandates.

After much contemplation, Pei Xuanjing decisively ordered the human race into action.

He was indeed indifferent to the Heavenly Mandate, and he did not want to use it to attain longevity. Yet, it did not mean the Heavenly Mandate had no use to him, nor that he was content with it falling into other races’ hands.

The human race now was undeniably a powerful force in this desolate world. With Pei Xuanjing, Emperor Xi as their leader, no one dared to underestimate them.

Thus, when the human race marched again, many races viewed it as something that was to be expected. After all, with the rise in status of the human race, they naturally would not want to miss the opportunity to seize a Heavenly Mandate.

Year 232: Pei Xuanjing continuously seized several Heavenly Mandates. By then, he held nine Heavenly Mandates, the furthest limit he could reach.

He understood that his possession of nine Heavenly Mandates was in line with his strength and status. But if he continued to be greedy and demanded more, it would inevitably incur the dissatisfaction of powerful beings from other races.

Thus, Pei Xuanjing stopped his actions. He withdrew from the battle over the Heavenly Mandates and retreated to the borders of the human race for closed-door training.

His withdrawal was approved by the powerful beings from other races. After all, although Pei Xuanjing was only in the middle phase of the Sixth Level, he had repeatedly killed those in the later phase of the Sixth Level. He was undoubtedly one of the strongest in this desolate world. Unless absolutely necessary, no one wanted to battle him.

While other powerful beings were battling for the Heavenly Mandate, Pei Xuanjing entered a state of seclusion. However, his goal was not to absorb the Heavenly Mandate as others assumed. Instead, he planned on leveraging the Heavenly Mandate to strengthen the human race.

After much thought, Pei Xuanjing had an idea. He decided to use the Heavenly Mandate to forge a unique item for the human race, acting as the foundation to preserve Qi Luck. As long as this item existed, even without anyone refining the Heavenly Mandate, the human race would still have sufficient strength to stand tall in this desolate world.

Year 256: After several decades, Pei Xuanjing eventually melded the nine Heavenly Mandates with various Divine Materials, refining an artifact for the human race—the Human Emperor Seal.

The seal had the Heavenly Mandate as its core, was paired with Divine Material, supplemented with the Qi Luck and bloodline of the human race, and finally yielded an exclusive seal stamp for the human race.

An operation similar to how Pei Xuanjing initially forged the Sanbao Jade Ruyi to control the Divine Position. This Human Emperor Seal was an object Pei Xuanjing crafted to wield the authority of the Heavenly Laws. Whoever held the Human Emperor Seal would be favoured by the desolate world and bestowed with the blessing of Heaven’s Will.

Furthermore, the Human Emperor Seal, infused with the human race’s bloodline, would be unusable by other races. If someone else obtained it, they would only face repulsion and backlash.

It could be said that once Pei Xuanjing had forged the Human Emperor Seal, it would become a symbol of the human race, the tribal treasure. As long as the seal existed, the human race would never need to worry about interruptions in their lineage and ensured the constant presence of top-tier combat power.

Year 278: After the Heavenly Mandates were refined, there would naturally be a cosmic phenomenon. Although the Qilin Clan had been critically hit by the combined forces of the Dragon and Phoenix Clans along with the human race, it still possessed formidable power. After seizing several Heavenly Mandates, Mo Qilin, after meditating for several decades, eventually refined the Heavenly Mandate, receiving Heaven’s Will’s favour and commanding even greater power.

Now that Mo Qilin had enough power, he naturally wanted to demonstrate it. He chose to target the human race, not only to free the trapped Water Qilin but also to disrupt Pei Xuanjing’s Heavenly Mandate refining opportunity.

War was on the brink of breaking out.

All races had their eyes on Mo Qilin from the Qilin Clan and Emperor Xi from the human race. They wanted to know just how strong the further advanced Mo Qilin was, whether he was powerful enough to suppress Emperor Xi of the human race.

After all, despite Emperor Xi from the human race only being in the middle phase of the Sixth Level, his power was not that simple. This was bound to be a stunning battle, where the outcome could potentially lead to a shift in the global situation.
