The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Chapter 612: Chapter 562: Bluffing

Originally, Pei Xuanjing thought that this rule would not be so easily agreed upon by the No Phase True Monarch.

But to his surprise, upon hearing this, the latter laughed heartily: “What does His Majesty consider me to be? I completely agree with this rule and absolutely have no objections. I can sign it right now.”

The No Phase True Monarch’s unhesitating agreement caught Pei Xuanjing a bit off guard.

In fact, he still didn’t fully understand the other party. Though they both were masters of first-rate powers, the affairs of Wuxiang Palace were determined solely by the No Phase True Monarch. He didn’t care about these things at all. If it weren’t for his own enjoyment and collection of resources, he would not have established the Wuxiang Palace.

So for these constraints, they might influence the thoughts of other people’s disciples, but the No Phase True Monarch didn’t need to consider at all.

However, for Pei Xuanjing, since the other party had accepted his request, his aim had been achieved. As long as the No Phase True Monarch signed, nothing else mattered, regardless of the reason behind his agreement.

Pei Xuanjing slowly extended his clean and slender palm, and the artifact originally used for reaching an agreement with Xue Renfang of the great Xue ancient country appeared in his hand again.

The Book of Covenant emitted a faint aura, unfolding gently towards the No Phase True Monarch, waiting for him to sign his true name.

“Please,” Pei Xuanjing signified.

Without needing Pei Xuanjing to explain, the No Phase True Monarch was clear about the purpose of the Book of Covenant as soon as it appeared before him.

“Who’d have thought that you, National Teacher, are truly set on doing this.” The No Phase True Monarch, while signing his true name, simultaneously sighed with emotion, “I do not care about these things, I don’t have any disciples, so this constraint means nothing to me. But for some others, it is not the same, and I wonder if they will be willing to submit?”

Even though he was indifferent to this event, it didn’t mean that the No Phase True Monarch didn’t understand the difficulty and significance of what Pei Xuanjing was doing. He knew that such an event, for someone of his character, was of no consequence, but would other people be willing to bow their heads and accept this constraint?

If this National Teacher really has a firm resolve to proceed with this, then the resistance he will face in the future would be unimaginably strong. At least in the impression of the No Phase True Monarch, from the arrogant and untamed characters he knows, they’re likely to be unwilling to accept such restrictions.

Even with their pride, they won’t attack ordinary human race martial artists, but they wouldn’t be willing to sign this either. Being restricted by others for no reason would, in some people’s view, be blasphemous to the strong.

“Everything is done as best as one can!” Pei Xuanjing chuckled lightly, not explaining much more.

He was fully aware of how difficult the task he wanted to undertake was, and the amount of resistance he would encounter, regardless of what others said. But so what? Should some things not be done simply because they’re difficult?

After storing the Book of Covenant, Pei Xuanjing said to the No Phase True Monarch: “I thank the True Monarch for today. But I have some matters to attend to, so I won’t keep the True Monarch any longer.”

“No need, I too have some matters to deal with, so I won’t be a bother,” The No Phase True Monarch quickly replied.

After he finished speaking, seeing Deer Elder clear the path, he left without hesitation, as if fleeing from the plague. Before one could take a breath, his presence could no longer be sensed.

“Master, are we really letting him go just like that?” Deer Elder, stepping forward, asked Pei Xuanjing.

Having become accustomed to life in the Sky Wasteland world, he was somewhat at a loss as to why his master let his opponent off so easily. After all, according to the rules of the Sky Wasteland world, one must seize the opportunity to detain such an enemy, to avoid any future calamities.

Pei Xuanjing laughed and said: “You don’t understand, sometimes there is no need to put too much pressure on the opponent.”

This No Phase True Monarch has dominated the Sky Wasteland for thousands of years, and definitely isn’t just a big name. Despite seemingly yielding in front of him, it was simply a result of the No Phase True Monarch’s estimation of their respective strengths. If he truly wanted to take the other’s life, the other would not surrender and would definitely resist.

What’s more, Pei Xuanjing wasn’t the type to consider the world his enemy, like Long Aotian. Destroying a mere incarnation would not mean a thing, but would instead create an enemy for no reason and attract even more hostility and resentment.

After all, there were still many things he wanted to do in the future. He couldn’t just bulldoze through everything with his own strength, which would be the worst option.

Deer Elder nodded and said no more, he was just expressing his own understanding. Since his master thought it was right, then it must be right.

Pei Xuanjing knew that Deer Elder meant well, and didn’t add anything more. He then asked him: “How much have you understood about this world during this period? Are you familiar with this Heaven and Earth, do you still feel a sense of rejection when you make a move, and can you exert all your strength for a long time?”

For a strong character like Deer Elder, he naturally wouldn’t let him stay idle in the Taoist Academy, as that would be a complete waste of talent. Particularly in the present situation, where having a cultivator of Spirit Realm Eightfold Level at his disposal would be exceptionally beneficial to his plans.

However, Deer Elder was a creature he had attracted from the Sky Wasteland world. Even though he paid ten million Taoyun value for the simulator to erase his origins, to this Heaven and Earth, Deer Elder was still an outsider, and an even more alien and remote one than those who returned from the Sky Wasteland world.

Therefore, while Deer Elder’s strength seemed to signify that of the Spirit Realm Eightfold Level, in reality, he could only exert limited strength for a short duration. Once that duration exceeded a certain limit, he would attract the scrutiny of Heaven and Earth. If he couldn’t conceal his aura, he would definitely be repelled and suppressed by Heaven and Earth.

Therefore, even though it appeared to be a two-on-one confrontation against the No Phase True Monarch, in truth, Deer Elder couldn’t engage in combat for a prolonged period. Deer Elder was more of a bluff.

Of course, with Pei Xuanjing’s strength, he alone was enough to suppress the other’s incarnation, which prompted Deer Elder’s inquiry. He wouldn’t believe that it was because of him that his master held back.

Hearing his master’s question, Deer Elder was silent for a moment, then shared his recent status: “I have come to understand some aspects of this world, at least not revealing anything in terms of language and habits.”
