Absolute Destiny Game

What is your goal? This question really stumped Xiao Jie.

His biggest goal before was to become immortal, followed by reviving his teammates. Now that he has achieved the Immortal Path, and the matter of reviving his teammates is starting to take shape, what should he do next? Should he continue exploring this increasingly real and dangerous world, seeking greater strength? Or should he be satisfied with enjoying the carefree and worry-free life of an Immortal, and perhaps even consider "quitting the game"?

The real world is certainly stable, but can he really give up the powerful ability to shake the world with a mere wave of his hand and the feeling of being almost omnipotent in the game so easily? Moreover, there are the mysterious "new expansions" and the vast "Great Thousand Worlds" waiting to be explored.

His mind was momentarily unstable, with various thoughts intertwining. After pondering for a long while, he suddenly laughed: Since he couldn't make a long-term decision at the moment, this path of "Ten Thousand Transformations Immortal" seemed like an excellent choice. This advanced path seems to be a so-called "Jack of all trades" profession with strong adaptability. Whether he wants to live a secluded life away from the world, endure disasters, or walk the path of slaughter and becoming stronger in the future, the Path of Transformation seems to provide corresponding support, without immediately narrowing his path.

It may be somewhat lacking in comparison to the other three specialized choices in each aspect, but overall, it is the most cost-effective.

Fortunately, he didn't have to decide on a profession immediately. He was only at Level 39 now and still had time. Perhaps it would be better to visit the Scripture Pavilion and consult some secret books, gaining more information before making a decision.

"I have some inclinations, tentatively deciding on this 'Ten Thousand Transformations Immortal' path," Xiao Jie said, "but for the specific decision, I will wait until I visit the Scripture Pavilion and look through the relevant Immortal Technique Books before making the final call."

After all, the mainstream of cultivation should be the Daoist Skills of Calling the Wind and Rain, and controlling the Yin Yang Five Elements. The Demon Immortal and Path of Transformation are ultimately unconventional. If there are no suitable advanced Transformation Immortal Laws in the Scripture Pavilion, he could only settle for other paths.

The image of the Ten Thousand Transformations Immortal in the mirror laughed heartily: "Hahaha, good lad! Truly perceptive and tasteful!"

The other three mirror images had displeased expressions, either snorting coldly or shaking their heads, muttering as they dispersed.

Xiao Jie said no more and removed his hand from the icy base of the Three Lives Mirror. The brilliance on the mirror surface quickly dimmed, and the images inside rippled away like stones on a water surface before completely disappearing, returning to being an ordinary ancient copper mirror.

"I would like to first visit the Scripture Pavilion to browse and find some suitable Immortal Laws to cultivate. Are there any recommendations from my three Daoist friends who are familiar with this place?" Xiao Jie looked at Lin Xuance and the other two.

The three exchanged glances and nodded.

Miao Fa Yuanjun said softly, "We have no particular duties at the moment, so let us accompany you on this trip. The Scripture Pavilion is vast, like a sea of information, so with our guidance, you may save some effort."

"In that case, I appreciate your assistance, Daoist friends."

The four then left the Three Lives Hall, ascending the steps up towards the higher reaches of the palace complex.

This grand Immortal Palace was built against the mountain, with layers of halls rising into the Clouds. The Scripture Pavilion was located at the top of the entire immortal mountain, a towering and majestic building with flying eaves and brackets, exuding endless grandeur.

At the entrance of the pavilion, two statues of Guardian God Generals over three zhang tall, clad in armor and holding weapons, stood on either side. Although motionless, they possessed an unapproachable aura of majesty, indicating it was a heavily guarded place at first glance.

However, on closer inspection, the Golden Armor of these two Divine Generals appeared somewhat dim, and their expressions revealed a level of wooden stiffness, lacking the vivacity and spirituality that living beings should possess.

Miao Fa Yuanjun quietly explained, "These Guardian God Generals were created and refined by the combined efforts of Immortals when the 'Mountain and Sea Painting Realm' was first established. Unfortunately, after thousands of years of neglect in maintenance and infusion of Immortal Spirit, their Spiritual nature has gradually faded, and now… alas, they have become somewhat rigid.

Most Immortal Friends believe that as long as they hide in this Mountain and Sea Reminiscences, they can rest easy, long since abandoning the matters of Artifact Refining, maintenance, or even the advancement of cultivation. They only pursue revelry and self-indulgence all day. It is something that even Daoist Sui Feng would find laughable."

Xiao Jie hastily responded, "Daoist, you speak too seriously. As a New Immortal, everything here is new and awe-inspiring to me. I have a heart only to learn and would never presume to judge." His words were sincerely spoken, as all the resources here were once unattainable for him. Being able to freely access them now was a great fortune.

It's good to maintain a humble attitude.

Entering the Scripture Pavilion's interior, the scene slightly took his breath away. The internal space was far more expansive and magnificent than what was visible from the outside, seemingly employing some kind of Immortal Law for spatial expansion. Row after row of towering bookshelves stood like a silent giant forest, majestically arranged. Countless scrolls, Jade Scrolls, and silk books were systematically and precisely categorized, emanating an ancient, vast aura.

The interior of the Scripture Pavilion was divided into many levels, each extending upward like a tower reaching into the heavens.

Lin Xuance introduced, "In this Scripture Pavilion, all the texts accumulated over tens of thousands of years from the Nine States World are collected: classics, history, philosophy, military strategy, secret martial arts manuals, craftsmanship, agriculture, medicine, divination, various schools of thought… encompassing geography, records of strange things, astronomical omens, nothing is left out. If, in the future, Daoist finds yourself idle, you could always come here, with reading a joy capable of passing the long immortal years."

Just as he was speaking, a clear and gentle voice, hinting at scholarly refinement, came from the depths of one of the bookshelves:

"Oh? It's rare today; a new face has come here? Have I been reading for too long, and my eyes are playing tricks on me?"
