The Sims, My Alien Path

[You knew the simulation had begun, and said goodbye to Xiaoyao and Zhao Yanran that day. ]

[Before leaving, you asked Zhao Yanran to take good care of Xiaoyao. ]

[Even though you were very reluctant, you still embarked on an unknown journey. ]

[Then, you left the capital alone and headed towards Yuncang Mountain. ]

[You had to leave this world before the weirdness came. After all, if you were contaminated by the weird breath, you might be hated by everyone in the world of immortal cultivation. ]

[After opening the formation, you encountered the time and space storm again, and you felt a hint of fate's mockery. ]

[The storm seemed to have an indissoluble bond with you. Although your strength increased greatly, you still couldn't resist its violent power. ]

[In the end, you successfully teleported to the world of immortal cultivation at the cost of serious injuries. ]

[You endured the severe pain, quickly left the formation, and hid in the depths of the mountains. ]

[You took the elixir and began a long process of healing. ]

[In the first year, you lived alone in the mountains, concentrating on healing. ]

[As time passed, your injuries gradually healed. ]

[After you recovered, you decided to go down the mountain to get information. ]

[You came to the nearest mortal town, mingled in the market, and listened carefully to various rumors and gossips. ]

[Three days later, you got an important news: the Yufeng Sect in Yufeng Valley is about to recruit disciples. ]

[This news gave you an idea. ]

[When you first arrived in the world of immortal cultivation, you had no power to rely on, and survival was undoubtedly a big challenge. ]

[You decided to join the Yufeng Sect to enhance your strength and seek shelter at the same time. ]

"Join the Yufeng Sect..." Ling Tian muttered to himself, with a glimmer of thought in his eyes. He nodded gently, "It's indeed a good idea."

Ling Tian stood up and walked slowly in the courtyard. The autumn wind brushed across his sleeves, bringing a hint of coolness.

He took a deep breath and continued to ponder: "When I first arrived in the world of immortal cultivation, I was unfamiliar with the place and might offend someone I shouldn't offend if I wasn't careful. With the support of the sect, I can at least cultivate with peace of mind for a while."

Ling Tian looked over the courtyard wall and looked into the distance.

"Moreover, there must be a lot of magical skills hidden in the sect. If I can learn one or two, my strength will definitely increase greatly."

He showed a bitter smile on his face, "The most important thing is that I am plagued by bad luck. If I venture into the world of immortal cultivation alone, I might meet some demon cultivators and become a member of the Soul Refining Banner."

Thinking of this, Ling Tian couldn't help but shudder.

"I can't live up to the saying 'If you don't work hard in cultivating immortals, you will become brothers in the Soul Refining Banner'..."

Shaking his head, Ling Tian dispelled these ominous thoughts and refocused his attention on the simulation panel.

[Three months later, the Yufeng Sect opened its gates and began to recruit disciples. ]

[You set out on a journey to the Yufeng Sect, feeling both excited and anxious. ]

[Soon, you arrived at the gate of the Yufeng Sect. ]

[At this time, a large number of seekers had gathered in front of the gate, all of them looking forward to it. ]

[After three days of waiting, the ceremony of recruiting disciples finally began. ]

[A white-haired old man appeared in front of the sect gate. With a wave of his hand, a mysterious compass with a radius of three feet appeared on the ground. ]

[The old man announced that everyone had to touch the compass to test their spiritual roots. ]

[There were nine scales on the compass, and as long as three scales were lit up, they would pass. ]

[After the test began, expressions of joy and disappointment kept alternating among the crowd. ]

[You noticed that most people didn't even have spiritual roots. It seemed that even in the world of immortal cultivation, not everyone was qualified to embark on the path of immortal cultivation. ]

[Finally, it was your turn. ]

[When your hand touches the compass, the compass suddenly bursts into colorful light. ]

[You are surprised to find that you have lit up four scales and successfully passed this round of tests. ]

"My five-element spiritual root is a blue talent, but I can only light up four scales?" Ling Tian frowned and said to himself, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

He touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "How is this spiritual root divided? According to the simulator standard, blue should be considered the third level."

"But the result of this compass test only lit up four scales... This doesn't match at all."

Ling Tian's eyes became deep, "It seems that I have to find an opportunity to understand the spiritual root division standards here. I have to figure out what level I am at."

Thinking of this, Ling Tian shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

He took a deep breath and continued to focus on the simulation panel, looking forward to the next development.

[As time passed, the first round of testing ended. The team of thousands of people originally only had more than a hundred people left. 】

【The second round of testing began immediately. 】

【The white-haired old manAfter another move, the remaining hundred people disappeared in an instant and appeared in front of a trail covered by fog. ]

[The old man announced that this was the path of refining the mind, which could reflect how strong everyone's desire to seek the truth was. ]

[The test was simple. As long as you passed this trail and reached the other side, you would be considered successful. ]

[The moment you stepped into the trail, you felt all kinds of distracting thoughts suddenly emerge in your heart. ]

[Desire, anger, jealousy, fear, greed and other negative emotions kept surging in your mind. ]

[But you successfully dispelled these distracting thoughts with your strong willpower. ]

[You walked towards the end of the trail step by step and firmly. ]

[Finally, you successfully reached the end. ]

[Only more than 30 people passed this round of tests, and you were one of them. ]

A hint of surprise flashed in Ling Tian's eyes, and then he showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.

"So that's how it is," he whispered to himself, "it seems that willpower is not only effective in fighting against strange mental pollution, but also very beneficial to cultivating immortals."

A thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

"It seems that if you encounter a talent that can increase willpower in the future, you must grasp it well."

"This will definitely be of great help in overcoming the various difficulties in cultivation."

Ling Tian continued to look at the simulation panel.

[After the second round of tests, the last round of tests began immediately. ]

[The white-haired old man asked everyone to come forward, and he reached out and gently stroked the hands of each tester. ]

[Soon, the test results came out. ]

[Surprisingly, everyone passed the test, but you were rejected. ]

[It turned out that this round of tests was to measure bone age. ]

[And your bone age is already an astonishing one hundred years. ]

When he saw this result, an expression of disbelief instantly appeared on Ling Tian's face.

"What? I passed all the tests, but failed the bone age test?"

His voice was full of reluctance and confusion.

"Could it be that the life span deducted by the simulator is not just as simple as shortening my life span? It will also lead to an actual increase in bone age?"

"I thought it was just extracting vitality and turning me into a short-lived ghost."

"I didn't expect it to actually make me spend that time being extracted..."

Ling Tian tried to calm his inner fluctuations.

He murmured to himself: "It seems that the role of the simulator is much more profound than I thought."

Although there were still many questions in his mind, Ling Tian forced himself to calm down and continue to pay attention to the subsequent developments in the simulation.

[The white-haired old man looked at you strangely, with a hint of doubt in his eyes. ]

[He didn't expect that you looked so young and energetic, but your bone age was more than a hundred years old. ]

[However, the old man didn't ask much. ]

[He just told you calmly that you couldn't join the Yufeng Sect because you were over the age limit. 】

【Then, he waved his hand, signaling you to leave Yufeng Valley. 】

【You stood outside the mountain gate of Yufeng Valley, watching the other monks who successfully entered the gate excitedly, and a complex emotion surged in your heart. 】

【You took a deep breath, turned around and left, looking into the distance. 】
