Translator: 549690339

After saying goodbye to Gu Ji, Pei Xuanjing secretly returned to his place of residence and embarked on his third life simulation.

“The Great Tao numbers fifty, the Forty-Nine Heavenly Paths are the unfolding of it, with one path remaining hidden! Therefore, in all things, there is a glimmer of life!”

At the age of twenty-one: You will cultivate the “Dragon Elephant Skill” to the third level and leave Anping Prefecture.

At the age of twenty-two: You will visit the Four Symbols Sword Sect.

At the age of twenty- three: You will leave the Four Symbols Sword Sect.

At the age of twenty-four: You will go to the Diamond Gate intending to acquire the subsequent cultivation method of the “Dragon Elephant Skill.”

Three months later, you will be defeated in a challenge against a Third-Grade Elder of the Diamond

Gate. The Diamond Gate’s Master will take pity on your qualifications and wish you to join the Diamond Gate, promising to overlook Yuwen Leopard’s death.

You will firmly decline, but the Diamond Gate’s Master will restrain you within the Diamond Gate.

At the age of twenty-five: You are confined within the Diamond Gate but stubbornly refuse to surrender.

At the age of twenty-seven: A group of mysterious visitors arrive at the Diamond Gate. A conflict arises during the negotiation between them and the Diamond Gate, resulting in a fierce battle.

You seize this opportunity to escape from the Diamond Gate during the chaos. Even though you are seriously injured in the process, you gain freedom. Unfortunately, you do not manage to acquire the cultivation method for the next stage of the “Dragon Elephant Skill.”

At the age of twenty-eight: You cultivate the “Dragon Elephant Skill” to the fourth stage, get caught in an uprising in the Northwest Dao, and with your astonishing strength, you protect countless lives.

Behind the scenes, the Liu family sends a third-grade Martial Artist to kill you. To not endanger those you protect, you choose to meet your enemy outside the city.

You are unable to defeat the Third-Grade Martial Artist. You use all of your abilities, but still fall short. You have no choice but to flee in disgrace. Leveraging on your beefy cultivation of the “Dragon Elephant Skill,” you lead your pursuer away despite the injuries, into a barren land.

At the age of twenty-nine: You, who were certain of your impending death, miraculously escape with your life. However, your True Qi is entirely lost, your elixir stocks are completely depleted, and you are trapped within a forest.

You manage to restore your strength without relying on any elixirs or spiritual materials and begin to search for a way out.

Unfortunately, despite countless attempts, it feels like you’re trapped – as if the forest will not let you escape.

At the age of thirty: Even though trapped, you do not grow despondent. You feel that this place is perfect for intensive cultivation.

At the age of thirty-one: Even though you, once rich, now have to survive on animal hair and blood, and be exposed to winds and dews, you still tirelessly search for an exit.

You make up your mind to set a direction and chop down each tree in your path, opening a way out even if it means deforesting the area.

At the age of thirty-nine: Although you didn’t intentionally cultivate, your body’s True Qi naturally flows in alignment with the daily tree chopping, cultivating your “Dragon Elephant Skill” to the fifth level.

Still, you do not find a way out. You have carved out hundreds of miles of path, but still, see no hope of escaping. It seems like this forest stretches endlessly.

At the age of forty-one: The leaves turn green then yellow, yellow then green. Year after year passes by, and you chop down countless trees in madness, but you always find unlimited trees blocking your path.

At the age of forty-two: You have lost count of how much path you have carved out a thousand miles? Ten thousand miles? You even consider giving up, but you continue to preserve, unwilling to quit.

At the age of forty-nine: You have completely given up and no longer wish to continue forward.

Twenty years have passed. It has been twenty years since you last spoke to a person. You feel like you are going insane, constantly talking to yourself and finding companionship in solitude and loneliness. Perhaps you have already gone mad.

At the age of sixty-one: You cultivate the “Dragon Elephant Art” to the sixth rank, and finally see a glimmer of hope. After what felt like an eternity, you finally manage to escape the forest.

Over thirty years have passed— you emerge from the forest into a world that feels unfamiliar to you.

You transform from a vibrant youth into an elderly man with white hair. While the “Dragon Elephant Art” has kept your body youthful, your heart feels aged.

The martial world has become nothing like how you remember it. Most of the people you knew have either passed away or lost contact with you.

At the age of sixty-two: You use the silver money on you to buy a batch of elixirs and spiritual materials, planning to break through your realm. Nonetheless, you fail but barely manage to hang onto life.

Three months later, you return to the small town in Border County, where the Everlasting Observance was stationed. The town, after having gone through the Northwest Dao rebellion, has regained its prosperity. However, everything has changed.

At the age of sixty-three: You spend money to rebuild a new Everlasting Observance and take in some disciples, wishing to pass down your knowledge.

At the age of sixty-five: Although your disciples are not particularly talented, they are very hardworking, which makes you feel relieved. Feeling your deteriorating health and knowing that you have successors, you feel happy.

At the age of seventy-six: Your most promising disciple is killed during a venture into the martial world.

You, who had previously let go of your desire for revenge, draw your sword in fury and slaughter your enemies ruthlessly. However, this drains you of your final strength.

A month later, you return to Everlasting Observance, settle your affairs, and pass away peacefully.

“End of life simulation.”

“Mysterious forest?”

Pei Xuanjing carefully recalled the situation about the Northwest Dao. To his knowledge, there doesn’t seem to be such a strange forest within the territory of the Northwest Dao.

If there were such a mysterious forest, news of it would have spread long ago.

“Could it be an unknown Blessed Land or Cave Heaven?” Pei Xuanjing felt uncertain.

He thought he had already gained some understanding of this heaven and earth. However, as his strength increases, his understanding of this world seems to be getting more and more superficial, as if shrouded in a thick fog.

“Thirty years without human interaction, talking only to yourself every day, that is truly terrifying!”

Pei Xuanjing thought about this recent experience, and his face showed deep concern.

He lived until the age of seventy-six in this simulation, but the experience was somewhat bone-chilling.

Even being reincarnated twice, he’d never had such an experience. Humans are social animals, after all. Thirty years of isolation from society, how mad and terrifying is it?

However, seeing the result of this simulation, a satisfied smile appeared on his face. “The simulation is over. You can choose one of the following rewards to keep.”

“First, the “Dragon Elephant Skill” at the sixth rank.” “Second, an experienced level in logging.”

“Third, thirty years of True Qi accumulation.”

Pei Xuanjing didn’t expect his laborious efforts would yield such odd rewards – was he meant to become a carpenter?

He grumbled to himself. After hesitating between the first and third options, he eventually chose the first one..
