Journey to Immortality
by KairokuYT
Journey to Immortality is a Fabric magic mod that turns cultivation into a path a player climbs through 26 realms, a xianxia theme built on qi and spiritual roots.
What it does
Players walk the path of a cultivator: they gather qi, awaken spiritual roots and refine pills to advance. The mod sets out 26 realms across 14 major tiers, from Mortal through Dao Ancestor, and each breakthrough raises maximum health. Five elemental spiritual roots, Metal, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth, follow the wuxing cycle, so a character's root shapes how it advances.
A mortality clock limits how long a character lives. Each realm grants a finite number of years, and a player can extend them through closed-door seclusion, by trading lifespan for spirit stones, or by breaking through to a higher realm. Good deeds bring fortuitous opportunities, while sin draws calamity. Heavenly Tribulation tests the character with realm-scaled, multi-phase lightning trials, and a sect can help a player survive them.
The mod requires Fabric API and runs on Fabric 1.21.1 only. Because it is client and server, the server and every player need the mod. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source.
