["We don't know! If we did, why would we be asking you..."]

["How can you be certain that the human world has the Path to Immortality!"]

["The human world is the Ancestral Realm. When the Human Ancestor ascended to the Real Realm, he left behind a broad highway leading there. This is a legend recorded in many parts of the Void Realm."]

["You spent over a hundred years and massive resources searching for the human world, all because of a single legend?"]

["Our clan has a powerful figure who sent word back from the Real Realm, confirming that those legends aren't mere tales—they're real history."]

[You smiled faintly.]

["I see. So you know the human world has the Path to Immortality, but you have no idea where it actually is."]

["That's right... Senior, could you perhaps spare us this time? We can cooperate with you, search for the Path to Immortality together, and ascend to the Real Realm in pursuit of eternal life!"]

["What do you think?"]

[Having extracted all the intelligence you needed, these five aliens had outlived their usefulness.]

[Though they were also divine-rank, they were far inferior to the Three Grand Venerables.]

[They hadn't reached the peak of divine-rank, and their combat abilities were merely average.]

[On top of that, they were aliens, completely crippled by your trait tags.]

[Killing them would be as easy as reaching into your pocket and taking something out.]

[If you didn't chop them into minced meat on the spot, it would be a dereliction of duty as the Sword Wielder.]

[While fighting the Winged Clan, you also used "Calamity of Ten Thousand Races" to copy their racial talent.]

[Five Elements Affinity: Every member of the Winged Clan is born with a high affinity for one of the Five Elements. Cultivating techniques and martial arts corresponding to that element, as well as comprehending divine abilities aligned with it, will all receive bonuses. Affinity is divided into four tiers: Low, Medium, High, and Special Grade.

The element you randomly received this time is: Water.

The affinity level you randomly received this time is: Medium.]

"Oh? This Winged Clan is quite something."

After all, the Martial God realm was far from the end of cultivation.

There was still a long road ahead.

This Winged Clan talent was enormously beneficial for cultivation.

However, you had to randomly roll the element that suited you—which was Fire. Most of Chen Yi's techniques were Fire-attributed, and his True Qi was also Fire-attributed.

And you also had to randomly roll the highest affinity level.

Racial talents acquired through "Calamity of Ten Thousand Races" could be relinquished at any time—the original, innate talents could not.

After giving up, you could simply touch the target again to recopy it.

This way, you could keep rolling for the perfect random talent.

[This battle drained the last of your meager lifespan.]

[You felt an immense sense of emptiness wash over you.]

[You knew it was time to leave.]

[Standing in the sky, you spoke to the adopted children back home.]

["Children... I have to go now..."]

[It was only today that your adopted children learned their grandfather was such a formidable being, possessing earth-shattering power.]

[You could only imagine the shock and astonishment in their hearts from earlier.]

[But that joy was soon overshadowed by the sorrow of an eternal parting.]

["Grandfather! What's wrong?!"]

["Grandfather! You're so strong! Nothing can happen to you!"]

["Grandfather, please don't go! You haven't seen me start a family yet, haven't seen me pass the imperial examinations..."]

[Your expression was calm and composed.]

["Children, death is not something to fear. It's precisely because no one can escape it that we choose to walk this life with effort, with heart, and without regret."]

[The younger children, unable to understand life and death, continued playing around.]

[Those a bit older couldn't accept reality and cried bitterly with grief.]

[The ones even older had learned to hold back, but they still hung their heads and sobbed.]

[Shen Yue and the others hovered above Baiyun County, their emotions a tangled mess.]

[The people of Baiyun County also sensed something was wrong. Their revered God Yi... was he about to pass away?]

["Children, don't cry. Do you still remember the song I taught you? Sing it for me one more time..."]

[The older children held the younger ones' hands. Boys and girls alike raised their heads, tears streaming down their cheeks, and sent off their most beloved grandfather with song.]

[♫...]

[♫ Only after countless twists and turns do you truly know the depth of love.]

[♫ Only after traveling a thousand mountains and ten thousand rivers do you know where to go.]

[♫ Why must it be only years after missing the chance...]

[♫ That you finally understand your truest dream.]

[♫ Do you still remember me...]

[♫ Or have you already forgotten me...]

[♫ Tonight, the gentle breeze blows...]

[You, the first Sword Wielder of the human world, spent your entire life fighting far and wide. Even in the final moment of your life, you were expelling foreign enemies from the human world.]

[Amidst the songs of the children you had adopted, your glorious life came to an end.]

"Phew..."

Seeing this, Chen Yi, who was outside the simulation, couldn't help but take a deep breath.

For some reason, even though they were just words, his eyes were burning with tears.

The protagonist was himself. The sense of immersion was far too strong.

Chen Yi felt as if he was really standing amidst the children's song, recalling his own magnificent and tumultuous life, silently closing his eyes.

Fortunately, it was only a simulation.

In reality, Chen Yi was still a twenty-year-old ambitious youth, about to set his dreams soaring in the Void Realm.

"Huh? It's not over yet?"

[The "Unfinished Business" trait tag takes effect. You will now see some information from after your death.]

[This content is randomly selected and its continuity is not guaranteed.]

[Year 122, the first year after death.]

[The Sword Wielder's funeral was held in Baiyun County. Representatives from all factions of the human world, regardless of size, attended.]

[Funeral paper money was scattered for seven days and seven nights, blanketing the entire Baiyun County town in a layer.]

[Countless people, upon hearing the news, broke down and wailed uncontrollably.]

[Someone suggested being buried alive with you as a sacrifice, but the Female Emperor refused.]

[Year 123, the second year after death.]

[Li Lingyue abdicated the throne. She wanted to guard your spirit.]

[Year 124, the third year after death.]

[Shen Qingshan officially succeeded as the second Sword Wielder. He joined forces with the formation masters of the Three Great Holy Lands and devoted himself wholeheartedly to studying the Seven Luminaries Immortal Array.]

[Year 134, the tenth year after death.]

[Li Lingyue came to the Spirit Artifact Nation and found the Ten Thousand Souls Banner. She claimed to have found a way to resurrect you.]

[The Ten Thousand Souls Banner was very excited, saying it would fully cooperate.]

[Year 135, the eleventh year after death.]

[Li Lingyue's secret technique failed. Her hair turned white overnight.]

[Year 145, the twenty-first year after death.]

[Shen Qingshan mastered the Seven Luminaries Immortal Array.]

[Li Lingyue shattered the void through martial prowess, and her whereabouts became unknown.]

[Year 155, the thirty-first year after death.]

[Traces of new alien races appeared in the human world.]

[Shen Qingshan proposed a new war preparation plan. He believed that the human world's coordinates must have been changed back by someone.]

[Year 165, the forty-first year after death.]

[After the war with the Dragon-Men, human prodigies erupted in explosive growth. By now, Martial Kings were no longer rare; they could be seen everywhere.]

[Year 200, the seventy-eighth year after death.]

[During battle with the Ironheart Clan's vanguard, the human world coalition army accidentally opened the "Ancient Wasteland Secret Realm" at the northern edge of the human world.]

[A group of powerful ancient wasteland survivors lived there, claiming they were guarding the Path to Immortality left by the Human Ancestor and refused entry to any outsiders.]

[To obtain the Path to Immortality, the human world coalition army joined forces with the Ironheart Clan's army to attack the Ancient Wasteland Secret Realm...]

[The "Unfinished Business" display has ended.]

[This simulation has officially concluded!]
