The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Chapter 334: Chapter 271: Ultimate True Qj, Perfect Great Circulation

Translator: 549690339

“Your guess is not wrong, 108 strands of True Qi are not the extreme of the True Qi Realm, in fact, it can only be called Minor Circulation.” Mr. Pei Laozhu chuckled: “Above this, the only way to truly reach the extreme of the Qi Realm is to condense a full 360 strands of True Qi, which is called the Great Circulation. And there exists a legend that the Perfect Great Circulation consists of 365 strands of True Qi. Li Tiange was able to condense 360 strands of True Qi, thus stepping into the Gang Qi Realm through the Great Circulation. My guess is that he hasn’t stepped into the Perfect Great Circulation.”

Given Mr. Pei Laozhu’s high regard for Pei Xuanjing, he naturally would not want to waste Xuanjing’s talent. He would have brought up some of the secrets of cultivation even if Xuanjing hadn’t asked about them.

However, seeing that Xuanjing was able to uncover these secrets, Mr. Pei Laozhu was convinced that he had not misjudged him. He indeed has a tremendous talent for cultivation.

“Minor Circulation, Perfect Great Circulation, Ultimate Great Circulation – so it is indeed.” Pei Xuanjing nodded in agreement, Mr. Pei Laozhu’s answer solved his doubts.

However, he thought of another question, “Why is that so?”

If 108 strands of True Qi are not the extreme of the Qi Realm, why isn’t this common knowledge?

Pei Xuanjing was curious.

“Hahaha…” Mr. Pei Laozhu gave a hearty laugh, then asked him a question in a serious tone: “Tell me this: among the countless cultivators in the world, how many possess talents like yours?”

Pei Xuanjing was taken aback, then realized what he meant and nodded, “I understand.”

He realized he had fallen into a common misconception.

While his martial arts talent could be considered at the pinnacle of this world, like Mr. Pei Laozhu had pointed out, among the countless cultivators, those with mediocre abilities were the majority. He was just one of the few exceptions.

The so-called extreme of the True Qi Realm was, for most people, an unreachable dream, like the moon reflected in the water or flowers in a mirror. It was better if they didn’t know about it; it could give them more confidence. Seeing Xuanjing’s enlightened expression, Mr. Pei Laozhu nodded in approval and went on:

“Actually, as you may have noticed, the ultimate goal of the three realms leading up to the Heavenly Rank is to solidify the cultivator’s foundations, preparing them for the Heavenly Rank.”

“In the ancient times, cultivation was a difficult process, with most people getting stuck at the ultimate level of True Qi. Later, a great sage emerged who took a different path at the True Qi Realm and crafted the practice of the Minor Circulation with 108 strands of True Qi. This knowledge was shared worldwide once they reached the Heavenly Rank, to compensate for the foundations and facilitate progress in cultivation.”

“So, it’s not that we don’t want to share these secrets with everyone, it’s to prevent ordinary people from having unrealistic expectations in the Qi Realm, wasting their lives only to end up with nothing.”

“I understand!”

Pei Xuanjing nodded nonchalantly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing with this rule and its advantages or disadvantages. He didn’t feel any personal connection to it.

Rules like these are present in all worlds. However, as it is now, he is a beneficiary, not a deceiver, so he didn’t feel any resentment.

Even in the Great Ming World, there were many hidden rules that one could only come to know once they reached a certain status.

“In one month, it will be the annual provincial examination in Yunzhong

County. The examination will also determine who will be eligible to go to the

Capital for the inter-kingdom martial arts tournament. There, you will meet Li Tiange, the most outstanding young talent of the Da Li Dynasty.” Mr. Pei Laozhu told Pei Xuanjing.

Pei Xuanjing nodded: “Hmm!”

Having said that, Mr. Pei Laozhu left swiftly.

The simulator’s reminder once again popped into his mind, “At the age of fifteen, you will perfect your swordsmanship and cause a sensation at the conference in Yunzhong City.”

Pei Xuanjing didn’t take these reminders seriously.

He didn’t think they meant anything. His primary goal in this world was to cultivate, learn the various methods of cultivation in different worlds and absorb the essence to solidify his own foundations.

Although the Pei Mansion had many methods, they were negligible compared to what the entire world had to offer.

So, at the early stage, he didn’t intend to deviate from the track of normal life immediately.

For now, he could follow the current path and see what to do later. However, what he didn’t know was that after Mr. Pei Laozhu left, he called in old Han.

“Let the news out, Min’er will participate in this Yunzhong County’s provincial examination.”

“Yes!” Old Han noaaecl In agreement.

Generally, only Yunzhong Academy pupils could participate in provincial exams like this, others would need a recommendation unless a significant figure backed them, and they usually could not participate in such contests.

With Mr. Pei Laozhu’s fame and prestige, he could surely recommend Young Master Min to participate. However, it was strange why Young Master Min, who had never practiced cultivation, was suddenly participating in the provincial examination.

Although Old Han was puzzled, he was always obedient to his master’s orders and would not defy them even if he was confused.

“Have you heard?”

“It seems you know, too?” “Hmm, how do you see this matter?”

“How do I see? Haha…

If one were to ask about the hottest topic in Yunzhong County over the past month, it would undoubtedly be the upcoming annual provincial examination.

However, there was a topic even hotter than the provincial examination. It was about the mysterious young man who was highly favored by Mr. Pei Laozhu, who he had brought back to the Pei Mansion but had never appeared in public; it was said that he would participate in this year’s provincial examination.

When Mr. Pei Laozhu brought Pei Xuanjing back to the mansion, his treatment was considered lavish. Even Mr. Pei Laozhu’s own grandson did not receive such favor, causing a significant stir.

The Pei Mansion has its rules after all. The uproar was due to the favor given to a nobody who had not made any progress in ten years. This naturally led to dissatisfaction among many.

Even people from other households in Yunzhong City were watching this spectacle, snickering at the Pei Mansion’s folly.

Although Mr. Pei Laozhu was originally from the influential Hedong family, his current position was hard-earned. He was the one who had the final say in

Yunzhong City, and his strong influence managed to suppress all the unrest.

Nevertheless, even with all of this, there was still dissatisfaction among many elders in the Pei Mansion toward Pei Xuanjing, the mysteriously silent and obscure young man.

And now the news of his participation in the upcoming provincial examination had set off an uproar, especially when it came out that the exam would determine the participants of the upcoming competition in the Capital; his intentions were clear..
