My Simulated Road to Immortality

Chapter 633: Extra Chapter – A Hundred Thousand Times for Me Part 2

“Why?”

“Why has the course of history in this life returned to its previous path?”

Qiao Sidao awakens from the darkness once more, his head throbbing in pain.

But he had no time for that, as his mind was filled with doubts, constantly recalling and comparing his experiences from his two previous lifetimes.

As a minor character, he was swept along by the major trends of the time; he had no control over his own fate.

In terms of worldly matters, he hardly knew the full picture.

However, he did know about certain key events that could change the course of history.

After comparing each one, Qiao Sidao realized that a world without Sect of Creation’s [Wu] would align with the history he remembered—in which the Immortal Lord handed down the law, ignited the fire of the new law, destroyed the decayed Immortal Dao Ten Clans, and created the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals that ruled the Xuanhuang World for tens of thousands of years.

So, was [Wu] the anomaly?

Without Wu, would things return to their proper course?

After a long period of contemplation, Qiao Sidao finally came up with an explanation that seemed somewhat reasonable.

“So, in this life, should I first investigate the Sect of Creation to see if there is a person named [Wu], before making a decision?”

“But the Sect of Creation is one of the respectable Immortal Dao Ten Clans, while I am merely an outer disciple from a lesser sect. We are worlds apart. How could I possibly learn any news about them?”

“This kind of secret is clearly beyond the reach of my current body. If someone with ulterior motives notices, I might end up having my soul searched and exposing my ability to reincarnate endlessly.”

…

Qiao Sidao was thoughtful and not unfamiliar with the various methods cultivators possess.

Therefore, he had many concerns.

Luckily, he didn’t have to worry about this for long.

Because after he had absorbed the memories of the body he occupied, Qiao Sidao was shocked to discover that the era he was in was not at the beginning of the new law as expected.

Instead, it was a strange and unfamiliar period.

There were restrictions between Heaven and Earth that prohibited the cultivation of multiple methods at the same time. Sects were extinct, with not a single cultivator surviving.

The surviving cultivators were all alone, roaming between Heaven and Earth.

They trusted no other person, struggling hard to survive on the vast wilderness.

Qiao Sidao was unclear about what exactly happened back then.

And the reason why he kept reincarnating and experiencing different worlds each time was even more confusing.

Qiao Sidao could only carefully ensure his survival first, then venture into the dangerous ruins of various sects, trying to piece together and unravel the true history.

It took Qiao Sidao more than a decade to finally figure out what had happened that year.

The deviation in historical trajectory occurred during the turbulent era when the old and new laws fiercely conflicted.

In this world line, the life force of the sects was unexpectedly tenacious.

They not only fended off the countless armies of the new legalists, but they also reformed themselves, beginning to cultivate the new law internally.

Once they lost the advantage of cultivation speed, there was no doubt that they were far behind the new cultivation civilization in terms of Techniques, Magic Treasures, and Divine Techniques.

They barely held on by relying on the absolute number of cultivators.

The tug of war between the two sides lasted for decades.

During this period, in order to achieve the final victory in the war, both the Immortal Alliance and the Immortal Dao Ten Clans almost pulled out all the stops.

Large numbers of mortals were forcibly drafted and given the techniques to cultivate.

After brief training, they were forced into the battlefield.

With various prohibitions on them, they had to fight hard for their lives.

It’s said that blood was shed on every inch of the Xuanhuang World. Even today, on the desolate land, Qiao Sidao could still vaguely see traces left by the bloody war back then.

The two sides recklessly poured cultivator soldiers into the war, crazily fighting over territories.

One day, a catastrophe suddenly fell.

It was the terrifying curse that prevented dual cultivation.

Those who cultivated the same method lost their sanity in an instant, treating each other as mortal enemies.

Keep in mind, to raise the combat power as quickly as possible, the massive number of cultivator soldiers in both the Immortal Alliance and Immortal Dao Ten Clans were cultivating the same, specially modified technique.

Therefore, when the Great Calamity arrived, the entire Xuanhuang World fell into chaos and mutual slaughter in an instant.

Not only the lower levels, but also the upper levels.

The Immortal Dao Ten Clans, which valued the inheritance of the sect. Those who were cultivating the same method were innumerable. In front of the Great Calamity, even the elders who shunned the world unsheathed their swords and started slaughtering their fellow disciples.

The Immortal Alliance, which valued mutual aid. Everyone took the Law Transmission as their teacher, and were mainly individual cultivators from various sects. To defeat the ancient sects with a tradition of ten thousand years, they had to gather the wisdom of most of the cultivators and constantly deduce and perfect a common technique that could be used by most cultivators in the alliance. This technique, known as the Heavenly Net Divine Technique, was originally the foundation of the Immortal Alliance’s unity and mutual aid, but at this moment it became a deadly curse.

It was a dark time that made later generations shudder even in their imaginations.

The outcome of the great war was, of course, the complete destruction of both sides, leaving the Xuanhuang World a vast and clean wasteland.

Thousands of years later, the ordinary people who were fortunate enough to survive found the cultivating manuals left behind in the ruins and restarted the cultivation civilization.

The whereabouts of the leaders of the Law Transmission and Immortal Dao Ten Clans, who were once the top powers in the Xuanhuang World, remained unknown.

For the rest of his life, Qiao Sidao delved into various ruins trying to find traces of them.
