Chapter 938: 886-887 Chapters – When the Human Immortal of Life Simulation Martial Arts Awakens: Parts One and Two Combined_2
However, the friends and relatives of True Immortals are not necessarily True Immortals themselves. Their lives will eventually come to an end, and this is a form of torment for True Immortals.
Therefore, the friends and foes of a True Immortal are all True Immortals. They may die by each other’s hand, but they are also companions in the long years of the Dao.
“Hmm?” Martial Lunatic suddenly emerged from his nostalgia, his gaze travelling afar and settling on Pei Xuanjing, who stood on the high platform.
“Who would have thought that after millions of years, there would still be peers appearing among heaven and earth,” Martial Lunatic’s sonorous voice rose, reaching clearly into the ears of everyone present.
Indeed, in the eyes of a True Immortal, only True Immortals exist. Martial Lunatic had awakened because he could not plunder vitality; his original intention was to investigate the reason behind it.
But the moment he saw Pei Xuanjing, he sensed that the other was a being of the True Immortal Realm. Since ascending, Martial Lunatic had never encountered another True Immortal, thus naturally, his attention focused on Pei Xuanjing.
And as Martial Lunatic, who had risen from a desperate village child to a True Immortal, his wisdom was certainly not to be underestimated. The instant he saw Pei Xuanjing, he intuited that perhaps everything was this particular True Immortal’s doing.
Even though Pei Xuanjing had not ascended to True Immortal in any of the five Dao he now possessed, his true spirit of a True Immortal could not be concealed.
“Indeed, His Highness has ascended to become a True Immortal!”
“The Path of the True Immortal, a way untrodden by countless predecessors for tens of thousands of years, and to think it has been stepped upon by a junior who has cultivated for mere decades, this…”
“Could it be that all he did was to awaken this slumbering Martial True Immortal?”
“Could it be that this person is not some Dahong’s vassal prince, but has been possessed by an old monster?”
…
When Martial Lunatic announced Pei Xuanjing’s identity as a True Immortal, these martial powerhouses also instantly came to a realization, their gazes filled with shock as they looked towards Pei Xuanjing.
Even though their earlier belief that he could potentially have reached the domain of Immortal Path was because he had easily killed Mad Saber Guest, the confirmation of this matter still left them indescribably shaken.

Feeling Martial Lunatic’s gaze, Pei Xuanjing no longer had any trace of concealment. He slowly released his aura and then, stepping into the void, he stood in the air and looked towards the other.
“I’ve seen Taoist Friend, the first Martial Human Immortal of these lands, I am Shenxiao True Monarch.” Pei Xuanjing’s attire changed, transforming into a black Taoist robe.
This was a sign of respect for the fellow True Immortal, as well as for himself. There was no need to hide any longer.
“Taoist Friend? These lands? Martial Human Immortal? Shenxiao True Monarch?”
Upon hearing Pei Xuanjing’s words, Martial Lunatic frowned slightly, as if he recalled some unpleasant memories, and coldly said, “Such a form of address was the custom of those Qi cultivators in the past; are you a Qi cultivator? But in my memory, there has never been a figure called Shenxiao True Monarch.”
Martial Lunatic had an inherent disdain for Qi cultivators; if it weren’t for them, he would not have fallen to his current state.
So hearing such words, he instinctively remembered the detestable faces of those Qi cultivators from the Immortal Path era, utterly hypocritical, and his joy at encountering a peer faded.
“Additionally, these ‘lands’ you speak of, could it be that you are not a creature of this world? Is Martial Human Immortal the term you use for martial artists of my realm?” Martial Lunatic asked.
After ascending to the status of True Immortal and receiving much information from Heaven and Earth, he knew that this world was not the only one; beyond the heavens, stepping into the Chaos Void, there were countless worlds like grains of sand, each with its own living beings.
Yet, what he never expected was for a True Immortal to descend into his world; did this mean there were more True Immortals out there? This was good news for him, as it meant he wouldn’t be alone.
No matter whether those True Immortals were friends or opponents in the future, it was all the same to him.
Hearing the doubts of the Martial Lunatic, Pei Xuanjing was also willing to explain, even if the other party was an opponent.
“I do indeed qualify as a Qi cultivator, yet I have no connection with the Qi cultivators of this Immortal Path,” he said with a smile: “Of course, I’m not a creature of this world. By a twist of fate, I arrived here and heard of your story. As for the title of Martial Human Immortal, that is how I address those who have achieved enlightenment on a different path as True Immortals.”
“In the boundless Chaos Void lie countless worlds, and among these different worlds, the cultivation systems are as complex as sand; therefore, I synthesized various cultivation systems to create a framework for power classification. I consolidated the cultivation paths into three: Refining Essence, Refining Qi, Refining Spirit, and I also categorized Dao-Certifying True Immortals into five types: Heavenly Immortals, Earth Immortals, Human Immortals, Immortals, and Ghost Immortals. As for your Martial Arts, it belongs to the Way of Essence Refinement, and after becoming a True Immortal, you should be called a Martial Human Immortal!”
Pei Xuanjing harbored ambitions of becoming a founder of a Dao; aside from promoting his own Dao and Law, he was subtly imparting his understanding of cultivation.
The division of the cultivation path, the classification of power, and the naming of True Immortals were all part of Pei Xuanjing’s plan. When more people accepted it, Pei Xuanjing would naturally benefit.
“Seven stages of cultivation, the first three for the common folk; stages four, five, and six are considered spiritual, and seven is revered as Immortal. Refining Essence, Refining Qi, Refining Spirit, Martial Human Immortal.” The Martial Lunatic mulled over the information Pei Xuanjing had shared, a smile appearing on his face: “Your classification seems simple, yet it’s clear and precise. Not bad, not bad. I quite like this title, Martial Human Immortal.”
“Hahahaha, Martial Human Immortal!” The Martial Lunatic’s hearty laughter spread in all directions. But moments later, his laughter ceased, and a chill came over his face as he said sternly, “Then, the one who awakened me—you’re the one behind it, aren’t you?”
Although it was a question, he was almost certain it was the other’s doing.
No matter the other’s intentions or what they wanted to do, it was a fact that their actions had interrupted his healing process, preventing him from fully recovering, ending his treatment. He had been roused from his slumber, and the rage inside the Martial Lunatic had not subsided; he needed an explanation.
“Don’t you think that what you’re doing right now has led you astray onto the Demonic Way, losing sight of your true self?” Pei Xuanjing’s smile also faded as he spoke indifferently.
With these words, Pei Xuanjing unquestionably set the Martial Lunatic against everyone else.
“Hmm, the Demonic Way? I am the pioneer of the Martial Arts. Without me, where would the Martial Arts be?” the Martial Lunatic did not deny it, for powerhouses at his level never cared to conceal their true selves.
He also did not believe what he had done was wrong. As a True Immortal who had been injured and needed healing, he had forsaken the path of massacring the world. Instead, using the life force of many Martial Artists to heal was already merciful.
Of course, such an admission only caused the Martial Artists to glare in anger—no one wanted to be used as a tool from the beginning, especially those with great power.
Unfortunately, while they once thought they had the power to lash out at the world, the Martial Human Immortal, the Martial Lunatic, imposed the same treatment upon them.
“But isn’t our life also a life?” A Martial Artist could not help but blurt out in anger.
“Heh, how different are your actions from those Qi cultivators of the Immortal era? Those who kill mercifully are always killed in return!” The Martial Lunatic scoffed.
The flames of rage from the others did not concern the Martial Lunatic at all. As a True Immortal and one who buried the era of Immortals, his will in the Martial Arts was unfaltering, and he would not be swayed by these matters.
Although he founded the Martial Arts, seeing the attitude of these Martial Artists before him, he knew they were no different from the Qi cultivators of the Immortal era.
In the end, he buried the Immortal Path, initiated the Martial Arts, but he had not altered the essential nature of survival of the fittest that pervaded Between Heaven and Earth.
