《Simulating Endless Possibilities: Invincible Once I Act》 Chapter 1: I am still in the Simulator listening to music at the Pleasure House Great Abyssal Kingdom. Green Hills City, Jiang Family Mansion. "Ding, Life Simtor binding in progress..." Jiang Yifeng, who was lying in the arms of a maid enjoying a massage, suddenly heard an electronic voice in his mind. "WHAT?" Jiang Yifeng was shocked, waving the maid away. At the same time, lines of text appeared in his mind. [Life Simtor lv1] [Host: Jiang Yifeng][Age: 20] [Simtion Attempts: 3] [Energy Value: 0] (Note: Everything has energy. The host can convert items into energy value upon contact; silently reciting in your mind will show the energy value of all items.) [Function 1: You can simte life once a week, with attempts that can be stored up to a maximum of 3.] [Function 2: After each simtion, you can spend energy value to exchange for part of the rewards.] [Tip: As this is the host''s first time obtaining the simtor, 3 simtion attempts are gifted!] [Do you want to start the simtion?] [Yes] [No] Looking at the system panel in his mind, Jiang Yifeng excitedly eximed. "Five years! Golden Finger, you finally arrived! Do you know how I''ve lived these years? Every day I could only listen to music and drink, wasting my life in luxury! I, a model youth of the 21st century, have been living such a decadent life. Do you know how painful it is?" That''s right, Jiang Yifeng is a transmigrator. Five years ago, he inexplicably transmigrated from Earth to this different world, bing the young master of the Jiang n Firm in the Great Abyssal Kingdom. The Jiang n Firm is a renownedrge firm in the Great Abyssal Kingdom, with endless wealth. After transmigrating into this young master¡¯s body, Jiang Yifeng began a life of drunken revelry, bing the number one yboy in Green Hills City. Jiang Yifeng didn''t want this either; he wanted to strive for something, but he was good at nothing. The most crucial thing was that the beauties and fine wines were just too hard to resist! From the original host''s memories, Jiang Yifeng learned that this world was simr to ancient times in his previous life. There were several dynasties, and everyone was ruled by these dynasties. There were also some martial artists who knew martial arts. But most of these martial artists'' skills were just shy moves; practicing them only made one slightly stronger than ordinary people. Because of this, Jiang Yifeng thought that being a yboy and living a life of luxury was not bad. After all, with the scale and power of the Jiang n Firm, it was enough to protect him for a lifetime of debauchery. But now, the Golden Finger had arrived. Jiang Yifeng felt that he could experience different lives through the simtion. Without hesitation, he silently recited. "Start simtion!" [Consuming 1 simtion attempt, remaining attempts 2] [Detected that the host has no energy value, randomly drawing from free white talents.] Jiang Yifeng eximed, "I was careless," having forgotten to exchange for energy value. But it was toote now, so Jiang Yifeng could onlyfort himself. "Forget it, remember to exchange next time. Let''s continue watching!" [Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining the white talent: Three-Minute Enthusiasm.] [Three-Minute Enthusiasm]: You have three minutes each day of being particrly enthusiastic and firm. "What the hell?" Jiang Yifeng looked at this talent, feeling something was off. "Only three minutes of firmness each day? Who are you looking down on?" Afterining a bit, Jiang Yifeng continued to look at the simtor. *** [First Simtion Start] [Jiang Family Mansion, after obtaining the Golden Finger, you decided to turn over a new leaf and shed the title of yboy.] [That day, you visited the most famous martial arts school in Green Hills City, the Wu Family Martial Arts School, expressing your desire to learn martial arts.] [Although you thought the martial arts in this world were not advanced, you now had the Golden Finger and might create miracles.] [Wu Youdao, the head of the Wu Family Martial Arts School, thought you couldn''t endure the hardships of martial arts, but under your financial persuasion, he epted you as a disciple.] [In the morning, you did martial-art squats for an hour.] [In the afternoon, you did martial-art squats for half an hour.] [In the evening, after a day of hard work, you felt it was time to rx, so you invited some rascally friends to the Spring Blossom Pavilion to listen to music.] [That night, you fought for three minutes before surrendering.] [It wasn''t until the afternoon of the next day that you recovered, staggering out of the Spring Blossom Pavilion.] [You felt you overexerted yourselfst night and decided to rest at home, nning to train harder the next day.] *** In reality, Jiang Yifeng''s face turned ck. "Damn it, fought for three minutes and surrendered. And then rested until the afternoon of the next day, overexerted? This damn thing, you call it a talent?" *** [On the third day, your friend Liang Zhilei invited you to drink andpose poetry. You refused, but he said Qiu Zhixuan, the top courtesan of the Spring Blossom Pavilion, would be there; you replied that training could wait until tomorrow.] [Another day of drunken revelry, and that night you fought for three minutes again.] [On the fourth day, you listened to music at the pleasure house, firm for three minutes that night.] [On the fifth day, drinking and having fun...] [A year passed, you practiced martial arts for an hour and a half, listened to music at the pleasure house for 364 days, and stayed firm for three minutes every night.] *** Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng''s face twisted in pain, tears welling up in his heart. "Am I really this kind of person? Only three minutes every time? And every day? How could I be like this? There must be a mistake. Can''t I work hard to practice martial arts, strengthen myself, and experience the world of martial artists? That would be pretty good too! Show some backbone!" Jiang Yifeng shouted in his heart, looking at the simtion panel again. *** [On a certain day in the second year, you felt you shouldn''t continue to be so decadent, starting to refuse your rascally friends'' invitations to the pleasure house, and worked hard to practice martial arts.] [On the first day, you practiced martial arts for half a day, then copsed from exhaustion.] [On the second day, you practiced martial arts for 2 hours, then copsed for the rest of the time.] [On the third day, you practiced martial arts for 1 hour.] [On the fourth day, unable to resist temptation, you went to the pleasure house to listen to music again.] [Ten years passed without you realizing it.] [You shouted slogans of hard work again and again, but the actual progress was almost zero.] [During these ten years, under the efforts of your father Jiang Fushan, the Jiang n Firm grew bigger and bigger.] [Now, the Jiang n Firm is the number one firm in the Great Abyssal Kingdom, and it''s not an exaggeration to say it''s as wealthy as a nation.] [In the eleventh year, the Jiang n Firm received a big business deal, and your father Jiang Fushan went on a business trip to the neighboring Liang Kingdom.] [In the twelfth year, you noticed that your father often seemed restless, as if he had something on his mind.] [In the thirteenth year, you saw a shadowy figure arriving with the wind, standing in the void outside your mansion.] [The shadowy figure said nothing, directly striking forward, a huge palm shadow descending.] [Your mansion copsed instantly, and you were crushed to death.] [In an instant, you died at the age of 33!] [This simtion ends.] [You can choose one reward from this simtion: Three-Minute Enthusiasm (Talent), Martial Arts Experience (8.5 hours), Pleasure House Listening to Music (10 years of experience)] [Three-Minute Enthusiasm (Talent)]: Price 100 energy value. [Martial Arts Experience (8.5 hours)]: Price 0 energy value. [Pleasure House Listening to Music (about 13 years of experience)]: Price 0 energy value. Looking at the words on the simtor. Jiang Yifeng''s eyes widened, and he blurted out. "W T F!" Arriving with the wind, standing in the void? One palm destroyed the entire Jiang Family Mansion! What was that? A cultivator?Jiang Yifeng suddenly felt a bit scared! Originally, he just nned to treat the simtor as a game, but he didn''t expect such a huge change. He had been in this world for over five years, always thinking it was just an ancient society with divided dynasties. But thirteen yearster, a cultivator appeared, and even targeted his family. From the simtor''s description, that shadowy figure''s palm shadow crushed the entire Jiang Family Mansion. If this happened in reality, wouldn''t the Jiang Family be doomed? At this moment, he was immensely grateful for obtaining the simtor, knowing what would happen thirteen yearster. This way, he still had a chance to change everything. Chapter 2: Is talent used like this? Jiang Yifeng couldn''t understand why he had never heard of cultivators before. And why did that ck-d cultivator attack the Jiang family? Jiang Yifeng muttered to himself, "Looks like I need to find a way to understand this world anew." He didn''t want to die inexplicably. Before, without any crises, he could loaf around and listen to music at the pleasure house. But now, knowing the dangers ahead, Jiang Yifeng felt he really needed to change. Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng recalled the twelfth year of the simtion. It seemed his father had started to be restless around that time. Could it be that he knew something? He noted down this clue. After some analysis, Jiang Yifeng nced at the simtion rewards.He couldn''t bear to look! The "Three-Minute Enthusiasm" (Talent) was definitely not an option. As for the "Pleasure House Listening to Music Experience" (about 13 years) and the "Martial Arts Experience" (8 and a half hours). The simtor didn''t even bother to collect energy value for these rewards, which showed their "value." Shaking his head, Jiang Yifeng could only choose the "Martial Arts Experience" (8 and a half hours). [Ding, Martial Arts Experience (8 and a half hours), consumed 0 energy value, remaining energy value 0.] The first simtion reward settlement wasplete. Jiang Yifeng didn''t feel any improvement. He secretly pondered whether to simte again. After a moment of thought, Jiang Yifeng muttered to himself. "Indeed, I need to simte again. Even if I don''t get any rewards, I need to understand the true nature of this world and investigate what cultivators are all about." Only by understanding these things could he better save himself and protect his family. With a clear n in mind, Jiang Yifeng casually exchanged some items in his room for energy. "Detected one silver ingot, sessfully absorbed, gained 10 energy points." "Detected one gold ring, sessfully absorbed, gained 50 energy points." "Detected one night pearl, sessfully absorbed, gained 200 energy points." *** This time, he didn''t want those useless free talents. So he promptly exchanged some energy points for backup. After everything was done, Jiang Yifeng kept reminding himself, "No pleasure house listening to music, investigate cultivators, improve myself." Then he silently recited, "Start simtion." [Consumed 1 simtion attempt, remaining attempts 1] [Host privileges allow drawing white talent or green talent!] [Drawing white talent does not consume energy, green talent consumes 1000 energy points, draw?] "1000 energy points, that''s just a few ordinary night pearls, not expensive." Jiang Yifeng mumbled to himself. This amount of energy was a piece of cake for Jiang Yifeng, the young master of the Jiang n Firm, the top firm in the Great Abyssal Kingdom. Since that''s the case, why hesitate? "Draw green talent." [Ding, deducted 1000 energy points, remaining energy points 5260, drawing green talent.] [Congrattions on obtaining green talent: Passerby A.] [Passerby A]: As a passerby, you can always hear information that most people don''t know; Note: Limited to mortals. Seeing this talent description, Jiang Yifeng''s eyes lit up. Sure enough, spending money made a difference. This information-type talent came just in time, as he wanted to investigate the truth of this world. Without further thought, Jiang Yifeng turned his gaze to the simtion panel. [Second simtion begins.] [Due to the oue of the first simtion, you realized this world is not as simple as you thought.] [This made you feel a sense of urgency; you wanted to save yourself and also wanted to cultivate.] [You thought that your father, Jiang Fushan, might know something.] [So you hurried to ask your father if there were cultivators in this world.] *** Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng smiled knowingly. His anxious heart finally rxed a bit. It turned out that his actions outside the simtor could influence the simtion process; his previous psychological hints worked. However, with the unreliable experience from the first simtion, Jiang Yifeng didn''t dare to be careless. He kept reminding himself, "No pleasure house listening to music, investigate cultivators." Then he continued to watch the simtion. *** [Your fatherughed when he heard you ask if there were cultivators in this world, telling you to read fewer storybooks.] [You didn''t know if your father was deliberately not telling you or if he really didn''t know.] [In the end, you could only give up on getting clues from him.] [The next day, you scoured Green Hills City for information about cultivators.] [Mostmoners said there were immortals, but when you asked where the immortals were, who they were, and if they had seen them, the answer was always no.] [You instantly understood that the immortals they spoke of were different from the cultivators you were looking for.] [They were talking about fantasy immortals, while you were searching for real cultivators.] [On the third day, you learned that the head of the Wu Family Martial Arts School, Wu Youdao, had traveled extensively, and you thought he might know something.] [So you visited the Wu Family Martial Arts School to ask Wu Youdao about cultivators.] [Unfortunately, Wu Youdao said he had only heard about cultivators in storybooks and had never seen them in reality.] [Despite this, Wu Youdao said that if martial arts were practiced to the extreme, one could split mountains and cut through the earth; he asked if you were willing to learn from him for a tuition fee of a thousand taels of silver per year.] [Wu Youdao''s words inspired you; you thought that perhaps you should not only investigate cultivators but also martial arts masters.] [Those martial arts masters might also be able to fly and escape, or kill with sword qi.] [So you asked Wu Youdao to demonstrate. If he could do it, you were willing to pay ten thousand taels of gold per year to be his disciple.] [Wu Youdao''s face darkened, and he kicked you out.] [On the fourth day, you continued to gather information, to no avail.] [On the fifth day, Passerby A (Talent) was triggered. As you walked on the west side of the city, you suddenly heard someone talking about Old Wang the butcher from the east side of the city having an affair with Widow Liu next door.] [This made you a bit stunned. The voice in your ear sounded familiar, like Aunt Li who sold tofu on the east side.] [But this was too exaggerated. Someone talking on the east side, and you heard it on the west side. Could this be the talent''s ability?] *** In reality, Jiang Yifeng was also shocked by the power of this talent. But he was also quite speechless. Who told you to use the talent like this? I wanted to know more useful information! "Sigh."Jiang Yifeng sighed helplessly. Although this information was useless, it at least helped him understand the Passerby A (Talent) better. This talent triggered randomly, and when it did, it transmitted conversations from other ces directly into his ears. Whether the information was useful or not might depend on luck. Jiang Yifeng smiled wryly and continued to look at the simtion panel. Chapter 3: A distant view of a small Taoist Temple [You shook your head, disappointed that this gossip wasn''t what you were looking for, and you automatically ignored it.] [On the sixth day, you gathered information, but to no avail.] [A year passed, and you had asked more than half the residents of Green Hills City, but you didn''t get any useful information about cultivators.] [Instead, thanks to Passerby A (Talent), you learned a lot about the everyday lives of the people in Green Hills City.] [That same year, your obsession with seeking immortals became widely known, and rumors started spreading that the young master of the Jiang n Firm, which is you, had gone mad.] [When your father, Jiang Fushan, learned about your situation, he repeatedly advised you to stop reading storybooks and to give up on seeking cultivation.] [You couldn''t reveal the existence of the simtor, nor could you exin your reasons for seeking cultivators, so you just nodded in agreement.] [However, you didn''t give up on gathering information; you just did it more discreetly.] [In the second year, you realized that individual efforts were limited, so you spent arge sum of money to hire a group of people to secretly search for information about cultivators.][Half a year passed in the blink of an eye, and you felt that you had exhausted all leads in Green Hills City. Perhaps it was time to search further afield.] [So, you took four guards and arge sum of money and left Green Hills City.] [Two monthster, you encountered mountain bandits. All four guards were killed, and your money was stolen.] [Fortunately, you revealed your identity in time, iming that keeping you alive could bring them more money, thus temporarily saving your life.] [A monthter, your father, Jiang Fushan, ransomed you back with arge sum of money, and you returned to Green Hills City.] *** Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng frowned and muttered to himself. "Mountain bandits?"who would have thought that after just two months out of Green Hills City, he would encounter danger? It seemed that he had been too naive, thinking the outside world was as simple as his life of indulgence in Green Hills City. From now on, he needed to be more cautious in reality. Jiang Yifeng reminded himself and continued to look at the simtion panel. *** [After returning to Green Hills City, you felt that your previous preparations were inadequate, so you started spending a lot of money to hire guards skilled in martial arts.] [In the third year, you regrouped and left Green Hills City once again.] [This time, you brought dozens of guards, all of whom were martial practitioners.] [Under your financial influence, even Master Wu became the head of your guards.] [That year, you passed through several towns and cities, but still found no useful information about cultivation.] [In the fourth year, you encountered mountain bandits twice, but with the protection of Wu Youdao and others, you remained safe.] [This made you realize that martial arts might not be as useless as you had thought.] [Especially Wu Youdao, who could handle dozens of mountain bandits single-handedly.] [On a certain day in the fifth year, your Passerby A (Talent) triggered, and you overheard someone mentioning an anomaly in the Evergreen Mountain Range, possibly indicating the presence of an immortal.] [Although the truth of this information was still unknown, you were extremely excited.] [After all, this was information obtained through your talent, and you believed it had a high probability of being true.] [So, you immediately set off for the Evergreen Mountain Range with your men.] [In the sixth year, you had been exploring the Evergreen Mountain Range for over a year.] [But the area was too vast; you hadn''t seen any sign of cultivators, nor even another person besides your group.] [In the seventh year, you continued to search for information about cultivators in the Evergreen Mountain Range, but to no avail.] [In the eighth year, you saw a small Taoist temple in the distance.] [Just as you were about to lead your men towards it, a cold voice sounded from behind: "Seeking immortals without permission, die!"] [You instinctively turned around and saw a shadowy figure flying towards you on a sword.] [Without a word, the shadowy figure shed at you with a sword light.] [Wu Youdao tried to save you, but it was in vain.] [You died at the age of 28!] [This simtion has ended.] [You may choose one reward from this simtion: Passerby A (Talent), Heavenly Profound Temple Coordinates (Map)] [Passerby A (Talent)]: Price 1000 Energy Value [Heavenly Profound Temple Coordinates (Map)]: Price 10000 Energy Value; the coordinates of a small Taoist temple in the Evergreen Mountain Range. *** Jiang Yifeng stared at the simtion panel, silent and in thought. What was going on? Another shadowy figure. But it seemed like it wasn''t the same person. The first shadowy figure used palm techniques, while this one used a sword. Judging by the simtor''s text, the phrase "Seeking immortals without permission, die" clearly indicated that this shadowy figure was targeting him. It was because he was seeking information about cultivators that he was deliberately killed. At this moment, Jiang Yifeng finally understood why he had never heard of cultivators in reality. Even after searching for so long in the simtor, he couldn''t find any information about cultivators. It turned out that these shadowy figures, using swords, were preventing others from learning about cultivators. Most likely, those who knew about cultivators had already been silenced! As for the information he obtained through his Passerby A talent, Jiang Yifeng thought it was just a rare exception. It was highly likely that the person who shared this information had just learned it themselves. That person might have even been silenced before him. Of course, this was all Jiang Yifeng''s spection. But he believed this spection was highly probable. However, even if he guessed correctly, what could he do? Give up on seeking cultivators? Jiang Yifeng shook his head with a bitter smile. No, he couldn''t. There was still the threat of a cultivator thirteen yearster. If he gave up on seeking cultivation, how could he improve his strength, save himself, and protect his family? Fortunately, he had the simtor. Jiang Yifeng decided that any investigation into cultivators would only be done discreetly within the simtor. He must never mention anything about cultivators in reality. Jiang Yifeng had a rough idea of the situation from this simtion. He turned his attention to the simtion rewards. This time, there were only two rewards. But they were much better than the first time. Jiang Yifeng kept calcting in his mind which would be the better choice. Passerby A (Talent) mostly provided trivial gossip, but sometimes it could be very useful. The Heavenly Profound Temple Coordinates (Map) clearly marked the location of the small Taoist temple seen in the simtion. Jiang Yifeng also thought it was quite important. If he didn''t choose the map this time, he felt that he might not be able to find that location again in the Evergreen Mountain Range. Jiang Yifeng had heard of the Evergreen Mountain Range; it was thergest mountain range in the Great Abyssal Kingdom and was said to even connect to other countries. Of course, this was all hearsay, as he had never left Green Hills City and didn''t know where other countries were. The Great Abyssal Kingdom was vast. But regardless, the Evergreen Mountain Range was definitelyrge, and finding a Taoist temple within it wouldn''t be easy. Moreover, Jiang Yifeng had a subconscious feeling that the Heavenly Profound Temple was indeed rted to cultivators. After all, who would build a Taoist temple in thergely uninhabited Evergreen Mountain Range? Jiang Yifeng had made his decision and silently uttered. "I choose the Heavenly Profound Temple Coordinates (Map)." This choice wasn''t just based on a feeling. From the simtor''s performance, Jiang Yifeng saw that Passerby A (Talent) required someone to genuinely know and discuss information for him to randomly overhear it. With shadowy figures deliberately killing those who sought information about cultivators, there wouldn''t be many people who knew. The fact that he overheard some information this time was purely due to luck. Relying on this talent to investigate was too unreliable; the known Taoist temple had a better chance of providing some information about cultivation. As soon as Jiang Yifeng made his choice, an electronic voice sounded in his mind. "Ding, insufficient energy value detected. Please exchange for energy value promptly. Simtion rewards can be retained until the next simtion begins." Upon hearing this, Jiang Yifeng understood. Energy value, huh. He hadn''t noticed it was insufficient earlier. Without hesitation, he exchanged all the misceneous items in his room for energy value. Chapter 4: Where is the Heavenly Profound Temple? Why is it a ruin? "Detected Golden Silkwood chair and bench, exchanged for 500 Energy Value." "Detected Jade Wish-Fulfilling Scepter, exchanged for 600 Energy Value." "Detected several Silk Brocade Clothes, exchanged for 500 Energy Value." *** As for the Silver Notes, he had observed that they basically had no Energy Value, even thergest denominations were worth only 1 point of energy. Jiang Yifeng thought that the simtor exchanged energy based on the inherent energy of the items themselves, not the value defined by people. After a series of operations, Jiang Yifeng''s previously luxurious and elegant room waspletely emptied, and the energy value in the simtor had increased. It wasn''t as much as he had imagined, but it was enough for now. Jiang Yifeng directly exchanged for the coordinates (map) of the Heavenly Profound Temple, and there was still some energy left.Looking at the map in his hand, Jiang Yifeng roughly checked it. The Heavenly Profound Temple, located in the Evergreen Mountain Range, was several thousand kilometers away from Green Hills City. Even if he knew the exact coordinates, it would take several months to travel there by carriage in reality. Riding a horse would be faster, but he didn''t know how. Thinking about the mountain bandits that appeared in the simtion, Jiang Yifeng felt that it was safer to stay in Green Hills City in reality and use the simtion as much as possible. By then, he should be able to see the information he wanted in the simtor. Looking at thest simtion opportunity, Jiang Yifeng made a n in his heart. This time, he couldn''t openly investigate the cultivators. First, he would secretly go to the Heavenly Profound Temple to see if he could find any information. It would be best if he could step onto the path of cultivation. If he couldn''t get any information about cultivation, he would start learning martial arts. Currently, he was too weak, and hiring bodyguards every time was too inconvenient. Without improving himself, he couldn''t make any progress, even in the simtion. After confirming his goal, Jiang Yifeng silently chanted. "Start simtion." [Consume 1 simtion opportunity, remaining opportunities 0.] [Drawing White Talent does not consume Energy Value, Green Talent consumes 1000 Energy Value, draw?] "Draw Green Talent." Without any hesitation, Jiang Yifeng silently chanted. [Ding, 1000 Energy Value deducted, remaining Energy Value, drawing Green Talent.] [Congrattions, you have obtained the talent: Fitness Expert.] [Fitness Expert (Talent): Your exercise improvements are significantly better than ordinary people.] Seeing this talent, Jiang Yifeng''s eyes lit up. Is the simtor giving him a cheat? He had just thought about improving his strength, and now he got a talent to enhance his physical fitness. Not bad, not bad! *** [Third simtion begins.] [After the first two simtions, you realized the dangers of this world and are determined to improve yourself this time.] [But you still n to go to the Evergreen Mountain Range first to check out the small Taoist temple.] [That day, you went to the Wu Family Martial Arts School and asked Wu Youdao to apany you to the Evergreen Mountain Range.] [Perhaps because you only invited him this time, Wu Youdao did not immediately agree.] [Instead, he exined that he was the head of the martial arts school, not a bodyguard.] [So you directly threw out a silver note worth one million taels, Wu Youdao''s expression changed, and he said he was just a bodyguard, being the head of the martial arts school was just a side job.] [You just smiled slightly, agreed to set off early the next morning, and sighed in your heart that money power is indeed effective.] [The next day, at dawn, you arrived at the Wu Family Martial Arts School.] [You took out the prepared bamboo hat and mask, handed them to Wu Youdao, and signaled him to hide his identity.] [Wu Youdao felt that your actions were a bit unnecessary.] [But with your previous simtion experience, you felt it was more reliable to be discreet and insisted repeatedly.] [In the end, you and Wu Youdao left Green Hills City stealthily, wearing bamboo hats and masks.] [A day passed, and in the evening, you and Wu Youdao found a clearing to camp for the night, having walked 20 kilometers that day.] [Seeing you copsed on the ground, Wu Youdao suggested buying a carriage at the next town.] [You were about to agree, but then remembered dying twice in the simtion, and shook your head, reminding yourself not to ck off and to seize every moment to improve your strength.] [Although the day''s walk was exhausting, you felt a significant improvement in your physical condition.] [Normally, someone who hasn''t exercised for a long time would have swollen and painful calves after walking a day like this, but you only felt tired without any difort.] [You knew this was probably the effect of the Fitness Expert (Talent), which strengthened your resolve to train hard.] [On the third day, nothing special happened, and you walked 23 kilometers with difficulty.] [On the fourth day, you walked 25 kilometers with difficulty.] [On the fifth day, you walked 27 kilometers with difficulty.] [On the sixtieth day, you easily walked 90 kilometers.] *** In reality, Jiang Yifeng was shocked to see this. Is the Fitness Expert (Talent) really this strong? In just two months, he had improved from a weakling who copsed after walking 20 kilometers a day to someone who could easily walk 90 kilometers a day. With these stats, excluding time for eating and sleeping, he had already surpassed the level of hiking experts and even athletes from his previous life. With a soft exmation of "Awesome," Jiang Yifeng turned his gaze back to the simtion panel. *** [Wu Youdao had been observing your changes during this time.] [He eximed that you were a martial arts prodigy and asked if you were willing to learn martial arts from him, charging only nine hundred taels of silver for a year''s tuition.] [Hearing this, you knew Wu Youdao truly cherished talent.] [As far as you knew, the Wu Family Martial Arts School always followed a high-end route; there was never any discount, and it always cost a thousand taels of silver a year.] [Even though there were few students each year, he never lowered the price.] [This was why everyone said Wu Youdao was greedy for money, and now he was offering you a discount, which was indeed rare.] [However, you politely declined, saying you would consider it after returning to Green Hills City.] [Currently, you still had many questions in your heart and wanted to find the Heavenly Profound Temple first.] [Who knows, you might find immortal fate there!] [If you obtained immortal fate, who would still practice martial arts?] [Wu Youdao did not insist, and you continued your journey.] [In the third month, you and Wu Youdao officially entered the Evergreen Mountain Range.] [At the same time, you encountered mountain bandits again, and Wu Youdao fought against a hundred enemies without falling behind.] [As for you, although your physical fitness had improved significantly and you were much stronger than the mountain bandits, your fighting skills were stillcking, and you could only flee in embarrassment.] [After half a day of fighting, Wu Youdao finally drove the mountain bandits away, and you, relying on your stronger physical fitness, ran faster and were only a bit disheveled, without any injuries.] [In the fourth month, you finally arrived at the coordinates marked on the map for the Heavenly Profound Temple.] [However, seeing the scene before you, you were puzzled.] [You remembered that thest simtion showed a small Taoist temple.] [But now, it was a ruin.] [You were very confused.] *** In reality, Jiang Yifeng was also puzzled by this. Why were there two different scenes when he came twice? Logically, the coordinates given by the simtor shouldn''t be wrong. Could it be that the timing was off? "That''s right, the timing is different!"Jiang Yifeng immediately thought of a possibility. Now, the simted version of himself had arrived at the coordinates of the Heavenly Profound Temple in the fourth month, while thest simtion was in the eighth year. It was possible that at this time, the coordinates were still ruins. It might be that in the following years, someone built the Heavenly Profound Temple on these ruins. Thinking of this possibility, Jiang Yifeng turned his gaze back to the simtor. *** [You thought that perhaps the timing was off, and this time you arrived several years earlier thanst time.] [Maybe the Heavenly Profound Temple hadn''t been built yet.] [Thinking of this, you felt a bit disappointed. Did you reallye all this way for nothing?] [The ruins didn''t look small, but they weren''t veryrge either, covering about a few hundred acres.] [You couldn''t imagine what this ce was originally used for.] [You thought that if it were a sect, it seemed too small, and if it were a mansion, who would build it in the deep mountains?] [Looking at the ruins before you, you decided to explore a bit since you were already here.] Chapter 5: The pinnacle of martial arts can also create worlds [Month Five: You have been searching through these ruins for over a month.] [Aside from countless skeletal remains, you haven''t found any useful information yet.] [As someone from the 21st century, you couldn''t bear to see these skeletons exposed to the elements, so you invited Wu Youdao to help you build graves for them.] [Month Six: The ruins remain, but a graveyard has now appeared around them.] [You look at thest skeleton in the distance, thinking that once it''s buried, it will be time to leave.] [You can basically confirm that these ruins were once a very small cultivation sect, given the skeletal remains and broken weapons.] [Unfortunately, even if this was once a cultivation sect, it doesn''t seem to be of any practical use to you now.] [As you lift thest skeleton, your eyes light up. There are two books beneath it.] [This discovery brings a flicker of hope to your otherwise disheartened mood.][After burying the skeleton, you start to examine the two books with a mix of excitement and anxiety, hoping to glean some information about cultivation.] [Upon examination, one of the books is titled "Heavenly Profound Art," and it turns out to be a cultivation technique.] [Seeing a cultivation technique makes you incredibly excited, and you can''t help but think that good deeds are indeed rewarded.] [If you hadn''t decided to bury these skeletons, you might have missed this entirely.] [The book "Heavenly Profound Art" is written in archaguage, making it difficult for you to understand at the moment.] [You decide to keep it safe and n to study it slowly once you return to Green Hills City.] [The other book, titled "Cultivation Notes," is unfortunately quite damaged.] [Despite this, you manage to extract some information from it.] [The first page records that this world is called the Nine Mystic Realm, but the rest is too blurred to read.] [Flipping through a few more pages, you find a record of the cultivation levels.] [You learn that cultivation is divided into Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul, Spirit Transformation, Void Refinement, Body Integration, Great Ascension, and Tribtion Crossing... and then it bes blurred again.] [Further on, there are some scattered words, but they are too fragmented to piece together into coherent sentences, so you stop your research.] [These discoveries already make you ecstatic.] [After all, the "Heavenly Profound Art" is well-preserved, and you feel hopeful about your path to immortality.] *** "Huh? I actually found a cultivation technique?"In reality, Jiang Yifeng is also somewhat excited. Suppressing his excitement, he continues to watch the simtor''s progress. *** [You are pleased with your findings in the ruins, but also a bit conflicted.] [You had originally nned to visit the Heavenly Profound Temple again in a few years, but now that you have obtained a cultivation technique, you wonder if it''s still necessary.] [You don''t have an immediate answer and decide to think about itter.] [Meanwhile, you notice that Wu Youdao has been observing your discoveries.] [To ensure your safety, you agree to let him copy the technique.] [Wu Youdao just chuckles and says he only wants to practice martial arts; even if there is a path to immortality, he has no interest in it.] [You are filled with respect for him.] [Month Seven: You set off on your journey back.] [Month Nine: Thanks to your improved physical condition, it takes only two months for you and Wu Youdao to return to Green Hills City.] [Back in Green Hills City, you spend every day studying the "Heavenly Profound Art."] [Year One: You can now understand and smoothly read the "Heavenly Profound Art."] [Year Two: You attempt to practice the "Heavenly Profound Art" but achieve nothing; you can''t draw Qi into your body.] [Year Three: You still achieve nothing.] [Year Four: You think perhaps your physical strength is insufficient, so you start training daily.] [Year Five: Your physical strength has increased significantly; you can now lift five to six hundred pounds with one hand, but you still can''t draw Qi into your body.] *** In reality, Jiang Yifeng furrows his brow. Is there a problem with the technique? Or do Ick the talent for cultivation? This won''t do. ording to the previous simtion, a shadowy figure will appear in the thirteenth year. With the current progress in the simtor, there''s no way to resist. "If it doesn''t work out, I''ll practice martial arts. With stronger skills, I can leave Green Hills City and avoid the shadowy figure, extending the simtion time to improve further." Jiang Yifeng shouts in his mind. Hoping to influence his simted self. *** [Year Six: You still make no progress with the "Heavenly Profound Art," and you start to feel disheartened, wondering if youck the talent for cultivation.] [After all, you''ve read many novels in your previous life and know that cultivation requires various talents.] [So you stop obsessing over the "Heavenly Profound Art."] [This year, you start learning martial arts from Wu Youdao at the Wu Family Martial Arts School.] *** "Haha." Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng can''t help butugh out loud in reality. He understands the simtor even better now. As expected, even in the middle of a simtion, his real self can influence it. Just as he thought about practicing martial arts, the simtor immediately followed suit. *** [Year Seven: After a year of training with Wu Youdao, yourbat skills have improved significantly.] [Your physical strength has increased astonishingly; you can now easily lift over a thousand pounds with one hand.] [Year Eight: Your strength doesn''t increase further, as if you''ve reached a limit.] [However, your martial arts techniques have improved greatly, and with your strength, you can now spar evenly with Wu Youdao.] [Year Nine: Wu Youdao is no longer your match. He says he has nothing more to teach you.] [However, he mentions an ancestral martial arts manual and asks if you are willing to learn it.] [Now you understand that as long as it can enhance your strength, it doesn''t matter what it is.] [So you agree without hesitation and even hand over a stack of silver notes as tuition.] [But the usually money-loving Wu Youdao shakes his head and doesn''t ept them.] [Afterward, Wu Youdao solemnly hands you an old, yellowed manual.] [Wu Youdao says this manual is a treasured heirloom.] [He exins that his ancestors imed that mastering this manual could lead to ascending to immortality through martial arts.] [Unfortunately, hecks the talent to meet the training standards.] [He hopes this manual can shine in your hands and revive the glory of martial arts.] [Hearing Wu Youdao''s words, you can''t help but feel curious.] [But when you take the yellowed manual and see it doesn''t even have a title, you instantly think less of it.] [Casually flipping through it, the words inside make your heart skip a beat.] [In the beginning, humans had no techniques. They used martial arts to break the heavens, y demons, exterminate devils, move mountains, and fill seas; they guarded the human realm for countless eras.] [Just reading one line makes your blood boil.] [You can''t help but wonder if you were wrong. Is martial arts in this world not as simple as you thought?] [You continue reading.] [The pinnacle of martial arts can also create worlds, but it requires breaking through human limits and enduring countless crises.] Chapter 6: Practicing the Unnamed Manual, encountering a Bottleneck again [After continuously studying the Unnamed Manual, you gained some new insights into it.] [If the records are true, this Unnamed Manual can hardly be considered martial arts. It might be more urate to describe it as Martial Dao or body cultivation.] [The manual contains only a set of strange movements, said to be used for body cultivation.] [The rest of it details the divisions of Martial Dao realms and some theoretical knowledge.] [It exins how to break through limits and continue to increase one''s strength.] [After reading it, you think this might indeed be a good thing.] [So you take out a stack of silver notes and hand them to Wu Youdao. Before he can refuse, you thank him and leave with the manual.] [If what the manual says is true, then its appearance couldn''t havee at a better time.] [ording to the Unnamed Manual, the beginning of Martial Dao is body tempering, making the body continuously stronger, hence the Body Tempering Realm.][Body Tempering is divided into nineyers, each threeyers forming a stage, respectively called the Skin Refinement Realm, Flesh Refinement Realm, and Bone Refinement Realm.] [Each stage has a bottleneck at its limit.] [To break through the bottleneck and advance further, one needs either special opportunities or certain methods.] [Without these, just ordinary training can only push a mortal to the thirdyer of the Body Tempering Realm, the limit of the Skin Refinement Realm.] [You realize that even the talent of a fitness expert can no longer increase your current strength, which should be the limit of the Skin Refinement Realm as mentioned in the Unnamed Manual.] [Originally, you had no method and were blindly training, possibly never able to break through.] [But now you have the Unnamed Manual, and the set of strange movements in it is said to be the orthodox method of Martial Dao cultivation, capable of breaking the limit of the Skin Refinement Realm.] [In other words, Wu Youdao''s Unnamed Manual is like a timely aid in a snowstorm.] [In the same year, you begin practicing the strange movements described in the Unnamed Manual.] [However, those seemingly strange movements make you suffer greatly.] [With your current physical condition, you can barelyplete the set once.] [Afterwards, you are utterly exhausted, lying on the ground like a dead dog.] [You instantly understand why Wu Youdao said he never practiced it.] [With such difficulty, ordinary people really can''t practice it.] [You feel that if it weren''t for your fitness expert talent, which has made your physical condition several times better than ordinary people, you wouldn''t be able toplete the set of movements either.] [The good news is that after practicing this set of movements a few times, your strength begins to increase again.] *** In reality, Jiang Yifeng''s expression changes as he reads this. Indeed, the Martial Dao of this world is extraordinary. The limit that he couldn''t surpass in the simtion was easily broken after practicing the Unnamed Manual. But clearly, not everyone can do this, just as Wu Youdao said he couldn''t practice it. Jiang Yifeng guesses that Wu Youdao couldn''tplete the set of movements, so he couldn''t use the Unnamed Manual to improve. Jiang Yifeng bes more curious about this world. There is Martial Dao and there are cultivators, so where have these people gone? Why has he never heard anyone talk about them? With curiosity in his heart, Jiang Yifeng continues to look at the simtion panel. *** [You find that your strength increases again, and in the following days, you train even harder.] [At the same time, you notice that every time you practice the movements from the Unnamed Manual, your appetite increases dramatically.] [You also be more and more fond of eating meat, feeling like you could eat an entire cow in a day.] [And as you continue to train, your appetite grows evenrger.] [Fortunately, you are not short of money.] [But your father, Jiang Fushan, bes worried about your health when he sees you gorging yourself after each training session.] [He repeatedly seeks out famous doctors to examine you.] [You have no choice but to cooperate obediently.] [Until all the doctors say you are fine, just consuming too much energy from martial arts training, causing your appetite to increase, your father Jiang Fushan finally rxes.] [In the tenth year, thanks to your father Jiang Fushan''s efforts, the Jiang n Firm bes the top firm in the Great Abyssal Kingdom.] [In the eleventh year, the Jiang n Firm receives a major business deal, and your father travels to the neighboring Liang Kingdom for business.] [In the twelfth year, you know that the shadowy cultivator who uses palm techniques wille to attack the Jiang Family next year. You think it''s time to leave Green Hills City.] [However, before you can leave, your father Jiang Fushan finds you.] [He tells you to leave Green Hills City and go on a journey for a while.] [You realize something is wrong and think that perhaps your father really knows about the Jiang Family''s crisis.] [You quickly ask him why he wants you to leave.] [But your father Jiang Fushan insists that he just wants you to gain some experience.] [With no other choice, you eventually leave Green Hills City alone.] *** In reality, Jiang Yifeng sees this. He can now be certain that his father knows something. But he is puzzled as to why this time is different from the first simtion. In the first simtion, although his father was restless this year, he didn''t tell him to leave Green Hills City. What did he do differently? What changed his father? Jiang Yifengpares the first simtion with this one. He has some guesses in his heart. He thinks it is highly likely that his martial arts training in this simtion is the reason. His father might think that as a martial arts expert, he has a better chance of escaping if he leaves early. Soon, Jiang Yifeng shakes his head, denying his guess. Normally, if his father knew there was a crisis at home, he would have told him to escape, even if he wasn''t a martial arts expert, and perhaps the whole family would have fled together. The correct exnation should be that his father knows there is danger, but there is also a chance of survival in the danger. So in the first simtion, he didn''t tell him to run away. Running away as a weakling might be more dangerous than staying with the Jiang Family. After all, from the simtions, leaving Green Hills City led to many encounters with mountain bandits, indicating that the outside world is not safe. In this simtion, because he has martial arts skills, the risk of being alone outside is low, making staying with the Jiang Family more dangerous. "Sigh!"Jiang Yifeng sighs. The key is his father, who is so stubborn. Why won''t he exin the reason? If he doesn''t say, how can he find a way to solve it? Jiang Yifeng helplessly continues to look at the simtor. *** [After leaving Green Hills City, you hide in the deep mountains to train hard.] [In the thirteenth year, your strength increases significantly, but without testing, you don''t know the exact progress.] [In the fourteenth year, your physical strength continues to improve well.] [In the fifteenth year, your strength increases noticeably slower.] [In fact, thest bit of improvement is hard to perceive, as if you have reached another bottleneck.] [You know this is the limit of the sixthyer of the Body Tempering Realm, the peak of the Flesh Refinement Realm.] [ording to the Unnamed Manual, after this, it is best to use a medicine called the Bone Tempering Pill to assist in training.] [Otherwise, using the slow method might take a long time to break through.] [Unfortunately, you don''t know what the Bone Tempering Pill is or where to get it.] [This makes you anxious, feeling that relying on this slow training, you don''t know when you will reach the strength to match that shadowy figure.] [So you don''t give up and turn to study the "Heavenly Profound Art," hoping to cultivate, but unfortunately, you make no progress and waste a year.] Chapter 7: Black clothes, not festive [Year Sixteen, you suddenly think that perhaps now is the time to find the Heavenly Profound Temple.] [The ce you found before was a ruin, but the first simtion showed a Taoist temple, clearly builtter by someone.] [Based on your guess, there is a cultivation technique in those ruins, definitely belonging to a cultivation sect.] [Whoever built the Taoist temple on the ruins is very likely a descendant of that sect.] [You believe that if you can find the person who built the temple, you might be able to figure out whether the cultivation technique is wed or if you simplyck the talent.] [So you prepare to set off for the Evergreen Mountain Range.] [But just as you emerge from your hiding ce in the deep mountains, you encounter a shadowy figure.] [He sees you and sneers, "Jiang n remnant, die."] [Then a palm strikees at you.][Facing the overwhelming force of the strike, you turn and run, trying to escape.] [You hear the shadowy figure''s disdainfulugh, "Hah, a mere Body Tempering Realm martial artist trying to struggle."] [In an instant, you die; at the age of 36!] [This simtion ends.] [You can choose one reward from this simtion: Fitness Expert (Talent), Unnamed Manual (Martial Dao Technique), Heavenly Profound Art (Cultivation Method), Martial Dao Cultivation.] [Fitness Expert (Talent)] Price: 1000 Energy Value. [Unnamed Manual (Martial Dao Technique)] Price: 10 million Energy Value; a fragment of a mysterious martial art. [Heavenly Profound Art (Cultivation Method)] Price: 10 million Energy Value; a fairly good cultivation method. [Martial Dao Cultivation (Sixth Layer of Body Tempering Realm)] Price: 60,000 Energy Value. *** Jiang Yifeng looked at the simtion panel, feeling the urge to curse. The shadowy figure from the first simtion appeared again, calling him a Jiang n remnant. Clearly, in this simtion, the Jiang n still couldn''t escape disaster, and his early departure only allowed him to live a few more years. The shadowy figure hadn''t let him go, even deliberately hunting him down. Jiang Yifeng found it hard to understand and repeatedly recalled the contents disyed by the simtor. At first, he wondered if the shadowy figure was after wealth. After all, both the first and third simtions showed that in the tenth year, the Jiang n Firm became the number one firm in the Great Abyssal Kingdom. Moreover, his father, knowing the inside story, didn''t let him escape the first time, indicating there was a chance of survival, fitting the scenario of being targeted for wealth. But now it seemed his guess was wrong. If it were for wealth, there was no need to deliberately hunt him down when he wasn''t home. There must be another reason, but Jiang Yifeng couldn''t figure it out for the moment. He really wanted to rush over and ask his father. But based on his father''s behavior in the simtor, Jiang Yifeng felt that even if he asked in reality, he wouldn''t get an answer. So he stopped dwelling on it. The real issue was hisck of strength. Only with greater power could everything be resolved. All the secrets would naturally be revealed then. Jiang Yifeng turned his attention to the rewards from this simtion. This time, the rewards seemed much richer than the previous two simtions. Judging by the energy value required for exchange, they were all good things. For a moment, Jiang Yifeng found it hard to choose. He wanted them all. First, the Fitness Expert (Talent). This talent was good; it allowed him to surpass Wu Youdao in a short time of martial arts training. But itcked potential and couldn''t break through the bottleneck, so he temporarily excluded it. Second, the Unnamed Manual, valued at 10 million energy value. Jiang Yifeng didn''t think it was overpriced, given its performance in the simtor. Although the simtor showed that his progress slowedter on. But that wasn''t the manual''s fault. It was just missing the auxiliary Bone Tempering Pill. Even so, he could still slowly improve using the training moves from the Unnamed Manual. A very good thing. The key was that ording to the simtor, it was a fragment of a mysterious martial art, clearly of significant origin. Just a fragment was so strong; ifplete, its effect would be extraordinary. Jiang Yifeng was determined to get this manual. But he couldn''t believe such a thing was in the hands of a martial arts school master. Maybe Wu Youdao''s ancestors were remarkable figures too! However, he didn''t need to exchange for the Unnamed Manual; Wu Youdao''s home was in Green Hills City. He could find a way to get it in reality. So he excluded this option as well. Finally, he was left with the Heavenly Profound Art (Cultivation Method) and Martial Dao Cultivation (Sixth Layer of Body Tempering Realm); he had to choose one. The Heavenly Profound Art was the most expensive of all the rewards. And the simtor said it was a good cultivation method, clearly a valuable item. But he couldn''t start cultivating yet. And he had the coordinates of the Heavenly Profound Temple; he could improve his strength first and get it in the next simtion, so he excluded it. Jiang Yifeng silently made his choice. "I choose Martial Dao Cultivation (Sixth Layer of Body Tempering Realm)." [Ding, Martial Dao Cultivation (Sixth Layer of Body Tempering Realm) extracted sessfully, 60,000 energy value deducted, remaining energy value:] As soon as the simtor''s electronic voice fell. Jiang Yifeng felt his blood boiling, his physical fitness constantly improving. In just a few seconds, Jiang Yifeng clenched his fists, feeling as if he had endless strength. He walked out of the room and punched a decorative tree in the yard. In an instant, the tree, as thick as a bowl, fell to the ground. Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng eximed. "Is this my current strength?" Although the tree wasn''t big, breaking it with a punch without any sharp tools showed how much force he had. Jiang Yifeng felt a bit ted. Couldn''t he now kill an ordinary person with a single punch? Just then, a team of ck-d guards walked past the yard. Seeing the ck clothes, Jiang Yifeng thought of the shadowy figure from the simtion, and his excitement instantly cooled. "I can''t get carried away, can''t get carried away. With my current strength, I can''t even take half a move from the shadowy figure in the simtion, what''s there to be excited about." Jiang Yifeng kept reminding himself to stay calm. But why did he find those ck-d guards so annoying now? "Little Peach, go call Uncle Dafu." Jiang Yifeng shouted to the maid who had just walked out of the room. Little Peach was the maid serving Jiang Yifeng, living in the adjacent room in his courtyard. She had naturally heard the sound of Jiang Yifeng breaking the tree and came out to check. Although she didn''t know what had happened, Little Peach went to call Uncle Dafu as instructed. *** Soon, the maid Little Peach returned with a slightly chubby middle-aged man. "Young Master, what can this old servant do for you?" The slightly chubby man bowed and asked Jiang Yifeng. This man was Uncle Dafu, whom Jiang Yifeng had asked Little Peach to find. His name was Jiang Dafu, the steward of the Jiang Family Mansion. "Uncle Dafu, I think the guards'' uniforms are old, let''s change them. Don''t buy ck clothes anymore, they''re not festive." Jiang Yifeng said seriously. He wouldn''t admit that he now had a phobia of ck clothes and got agitated just seeing them. Chapter 8: Simulator Upgrade 2.0 Jiang Dafu listened to Jiang Yifeng''s words and frowned slightly, wondering if the guards'' uniforms hadn''t just been reced. Nevertheless, he nodded and replied, "Alright, Young Master, do you have any other instructions?" Since the Young Master said to change them, then change them. The guards'' uniforms weren''t worth much anyway. After pondering for a moment, Jiang Yifeng continued, "Also, purchase arge amount of gold, silver, jewels, and other precious items. The more, the better. Once you''ve acquired them, deliver them to me immediately!" Since he had already sought out the steward Jiang Dafu, he decided to entrust him with the task of collecting energy as well. "Yes, Young Master!" Jiang Dafu didn''t ask any further questions. As long as Jiang Yifeng gave the order, he would carry it out. Asking was pointless; everyone knew that in the Jiang Family, as long as Jiang Yifeng spoke, even the most outrageous things had to be done. The head of the family, Jiang Fushan, was known throughout Green Hills City for his doting on Jiang Yifeng.After giving all the instructions, Jiang Yifeng dismissed the steward and the maid. *** He then began to summarize the experiences from his three simtions. Having first encountered the simtor, Jiang Yifeng felt that he hadn''t used it effectively. In three consecutive simtions, he had done many pointless things. For instance, he had gone back and forth, only to end up practicing martial arts. Would it have been better if he had started practicing martial arts from the beginning? But on second thought, he realized that wasn''t the case. The unnamed manual from Wu Youdao was obtained because, in thest simtion, he had demonstrated impressive Martial Dao cultivation and talent. Even if he had spent money to learn martial arts from Wu Youdao earlier, he wouldn''t have taken it out. In the end, Jiang Yifeng shook his head, no longer pondering whether he had used the simtor effectively. Everything was the best arrangement. He wasn''t afraid of taking the wrong path; with the simtor, if he took the wrong path, he could just walk it a few more times and eventually choose the right one. The simtion attempts were now used up, and the next simtion would be avable in seven days. Jiang Yifeng nned to use this time to go to the Wu Family Martial Arts School and obtain the unnamed manual. *** In the following days, Jiang Yifeng visited the Wu Family Martial Arts School and met Wu Youdao. At first, Jiang Yifeng pretended to have heard that the Wu Family Martial Arts School had a powerful manual and expressed his desire to buy it. But Wu Youdao kept ying dumb, pretending not to understand what he was talking about. Jiang Yifeng, helpless, had to show a bit of his Martial Dao prowess. With one punch, he shattered their training post. Wu Youdao was shocked and eximed, "Young Master Jiang is truly a martial arts prodigy." He then solemnly presented the unnamed manual to Jiang Yifeng. Wu Youdao stated that he hoped Jiang Yifeng could master this manual and restore the glory of Martial Dao. Jiang Yifeng had somewhat anticipated this situation. After all, in the simtor, Wu Youdao had also taken out the unnamed manual because he saw Jiang Yifeng''s impressive Martial Dao talent and didn''t charge him initially. No one would have guessed that beneath Wu Youdao''s greedy exteriory a heart dedicated to reviving Martial Dao. But regardless, Jiang Yifeng had achieved his goal. However, revealing his strength made him feel uneasy, so he repeatedly instructed Wu Youdao not to spread the word about his abilities. Wu Youdao didn''t understand but still nodded in agreement. After obtaining the unnamed manual, Jiang Yifeng studied it. He understood the difference between Martial Dao and martial arts. The martial arts practiced by ordinary people were essentially just shy moves. Martial Dao, however, was different; it emphasized entering the Dao through martial arts, ultimately reaching heightsparable to the Immortal Dao. Butpared to the Immortal Dao, Martial Dao was harder to practice. All Martial Dao cultivation aimed to push one''s physical limits. By constantly breaking one''s limits, one could achieve the power to ovee all techniques. The special body-strengthening movements were a unique method summarized by predecessors. However, practicing it wasn''t easy; one had to reach the physical limits of an ordinary person through effort before mastering the movements. In the previous simtion, Wu Youdao said he couldn''t master it, clearly indicating that his physical strength didn''t reach the ordinary person''s limit. Jiang Yifeng, on the other hand, had forcibly met this requirement due to his talent as a fitness expert, allowing him to practice the special movements. Additionally, there were other extreme training methods, each more brutal than thest. For example, some involved using thunder to temper the body or ground fire to refine it, burning away impurities. In essence, they utilized various dangerous ces in the world to break and rebuild the body. But these methods were only for those who had reached a certain level in Martial Dao; he couldn''t practice them now even if he wanted to. With his current frail body, using these extreme methods would be a death sentence. Jiang Yifeng hadn''t nned to train rigorously in reality anyway, so it didn''t matter. In the days that followed, he continued as before, spending his time listening to music at the Pleasure House. Outsiders couldn''t see any change in Jiang Yifeng. This was, of course, intentional. He wasn''t sure if the appearance of the shadowy figure thirteen yearster was a coincidence or a premeditated n. With the simtor, he didn''tck the time to train in reality. So maintaining his yboy image was safer. *** A week passed in the blink of an eye. During this time, Jiang Yifeng received arge amount of gold, silver, and jewels from the steward Jiang Dafu. Jiang Yifeng ced his hand on the boxes and silently said, "Convert to energy." [Detected arge amount of gold, silver, and jewels, gained 7.5 million energy value.] [Detected arge amount of gold, silver, and jewels, gained 6 million energy value.] [Detected arge amount of gold, silver, and jewels, gained 8.2 million energy value.] *** After converting all the boxes of gold, silver, and jewels, Jiang Yifeng''s energy value reached an astonishing nearly 200 million. And this was just from the gold, silver, and jewels collected in Green Hills City. Jiang Dafu said there were stillrge amounts being transported from other cities. "Heh, being rich is great!"Jiang Yifeng sighed. He thought of those simtor novels from his previous life, where the protagonists had to risk their lives for a bit of simtion energy. How could theypare to his ease? He just had to give an order and wait for the energy value to pour in. So, whether for his family or his future simtions, he had to protect his family in reality. Just then, Jiang Yifeng heard an electronic voice. [Ding, detected that the host''s energy value exceeds 100 million, meeting the upgrade conditions for the simtor. Do you wish to spend 100 million energy value to upgrade?] "Huh? Upgrade the simtor?" Jiang Yifeng was stunned. So sudden? Spending 100 million energy value was a bit expensive. But it didn''t matter; there was plenty of energy value on its way to Green Hills City. "Upgrade!" Without much hesitation, Jiang Yifeng made his choice. [Ding, simtor upgraded to version 2.0, deducting 100 million energy value from the host, remaining energy value.] [Settings modified: White talent extraction canceled, blue talent extraction enabled, reward selection after each simtion increased to two items.] Seeing the upgrade details, Jiang Yifeng was very satisfied. Not only could he extract blue talents now, but the reward selection after each simtion had also increased to two items. Jiang Yifeng now regretted not knowing that the upgrade was based on energy value; he should have stored more energy value sooner. But it wasn''t toote now. From now on, he would pay attention and convert all acquired gold, silver, and jewels to energy value immediately. He aimed to upgrade the simtor as soon as possible, hoping for more features. Chapter 9: Lost, mistakenly entered the desert At this moment, the simtor had alreadypleted its upgrade, and the simtion count had refreshed. Jiang Yifeng didn''t think much about it and silently chanted, "Start simtion!" [Consuming 1 simtion count, remaining count: 0] [Extracting Green Talent costs 1,000 Energy Value, Blue Talent costs 100,000 Energy Value. Please choose!] The increase was significant, but to Jiang Yifeng, it was a piece of cake. "Extract Blue Talent." [Ding, 100,000 Energy Value deducted, remaining Energy Value: ; Blue Talent extraction in progress.] [Congrattions, you have obtained Blue Talent: Five Elements Fake Spiritual Root] [Five Elements Fake Spiritual Root: A defective spiritual root with attributes of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. It can be cultivated, but the speed is extremely slow. (Note: Among fake spiritual roots, it is the worst!)]Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng was delighted. A cultivation talent had arrived. Even though it was described as the worst talent, he didn''t mind much. Regardless, having a spiritual root was better than having none. Without further thought, Jiang Yifeng eagerly looked at the simtion panel. [Fourth simtion begins.] [You realize you are already in the simtion.] [After thinking for a moment, you feel that your progress in Martial Dao is difficult.] [Now that you have a spiritual root, you should first obtain the Heavenly Profound Art and then try cultivation.] [So you set off immediately, preparing to head to the Evergreen Mountain Range.] [As soon as you step out of the door, you encounter your father, Jiang Fushan.] [He asks you what has been going ontely and why you have been buying gold, silver, and jewels inrge quantities.] [You are momentarily speechless; you can''t directly say you need energy. So you lie and say you''ve developed a new hobby.] [Your father, Jiang Fushan, hearing this, doesn''t press further and just asks if you have enough money.] [You touch the few million silver notes left on you, nod, and say you are indeed short of money.] [Hearing this, your father, Jiang Fushan, smiles and hands you a key.] [He says it''s the key to his study, and you can take money from there if you need it.] [You feel touched and tearfully say, "Alright, I''ll definitely take it."] [After your father leaves, you quickly depart from Green Hills City.] [You still choose to run this time.] [It''s not because you want to train; running no longer enhances your strength.] [It''s just because you still don''t know how to ride a horse.] [On the first day, even though you set off at noon, by evening, you are already two hundred miles away from Green Hills City.] [This is all because you now have a Martial Dao cultivation at the sixth level of body tempering.] [If you run at full speed, your speed isparable to an average fast horse.] [On the second day, you quicken your pace and continue on your journey without any special incidents.] [On the third day, you travel all day and spend the night in an unknown dpidated temple.] [On the fourth day, you continue at full speed, and nothing happens.] [On the fifth day, during a break, you encounter mountain bandits.] [Seeing the group of bandits, you not only don''t panic but even feel a bit excited.] [You shout, "Eliminate evil for the people," and charge forward.] [These ordinary bandits, even if there are hundreds of them, are no match for you.] [In just a few minutes, most of the bandits are dead, with only the bandit leader escaping on a good horse.] [But you don''t let it go and chase after him, determined to root them outpletely.] [While shouting to eliminate evil for the people, you are actually thinking about how these bandits had robbed you several times in previous simtions.] [Now that you have the strength, you must take revenge.] [The bandit leader flees on horseback, and you chase after him on foot, both of you moving at equal speeds.] [Two hourster, after running at full speed, you are out of breath.] [Although your speed isparable to a fast horse, your endurance is clearlycking.] [But thinking about the bandits'' previous robberies, you refuse to give up the chase.] [A dayter, you run the bandit leader''s horse to death, and he dies under your fists.] [Feeling avenged for the robberies in the simtor, youugh heartily.] [Afterughing, you copse, lying on the ground, exhausted and in pain.] [A whole day of running at full speed has left you utterly exhausted.] [Once you lie down, you quickly fall asleep,pletely ignoring the fact that you are in the wild.] *** Jiang Yifeng felt speechless seeing this. Was he really that petty? Was it necessary to kill the bandit leader''s horse just to avenge a couple of simted robberies? One of which didn''t even seed? Moreover, it wasn''t clear if these bandits were the same group. "Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Jiang Yifeng thought that the simted version of himself must have been thinking about eliminating evil for the people. *** [Fortunately, your luck was good. The next day, you woke up unharmed, without encountering any wild beasts.] [Waking up, you look around, feeling a bit lost.] [You realize that you have deviated from your nned route.] [Suddenly, you remember that you chased the bandit leader at full speed for an entire day, possibly covering nearly a thousand kilometers.] [Deviating from the route was normal.] [You quickly take out the Heavenly Profound Temple''s coordinate map forparison.] [After a few minutes, you stand there, dazed, with only three words in your mind: Where am I?] [The coordinate map of the Heavenly Profound Temple only shows the route from Green Hills City to the temple.] [But your current location is beyond the map, and you have no idea where you are.] [You think about retracing your steps from the previous day''s chase, but you can''t remember the route.] [Feeling lost for a while, you look towards thergest mountain range in the distance and head in that direction.] [You remember that the Evergreen Mountain Range spans several countries.] [You think that heading towards thergest mountain range should be the right choice.] [A dayter, you have traveled several hundred kilometers without encountering a single person, and the surroundings be increasingly deste.] [Therge mountain range you saw earlier is still far away.] [At this moment, you realize you arepletely lost.] [Another two days pass, and you still haven''t encountered anyone. You have no idea where you are!] [Logically, even in the most remote areas, after traveling one or two thousand kilometers, you should have encountered a few viges.] [Now, looking at your dwindling rations, you start to panic.] [Three more days pass, and you lie in the desert, your eyes vacant, having lost hope in life.] [Not only are you lost in an unknown desert, but you also haven''t had food or water for two days.] [You feel you might starve to death here.] Chapter 10: Simulation has ended, aged 63 When Jiang Yifeng saw this in reality, his face turned quite grim. Lost and on the brink of starvation. How humiliating would it be to tell others about this? Jiang Yifeng kept shouting in his heart. "Get up, don''t give up!" *** ["No," the lying-down you suddenly let out a roar.] [You feel you can''t give up like this; you must survive.] [You think about how you still need to save yourself and the Jiang Family.][Compared to facing cultivators 13 years from now, what is this minor difficulty?] [You struggle to get up from the desert.] [You continuously check your surroundings, looking for any signs of animal life.] [As the saying goes, hard work pays off. You eventually find a few sand snakes, barely staving off starvation.] [Days pass by, and you gradually get used to life in the desert, managing to find some desert animals to eat each day.] [A yearter, you no longer resemble a wealthy young master, looking more like a primitive man.] [Thergest mountain range you see is still far away, even after a year of walking.] [By now, you understand that thergest mountain range you see might not be the Evergreen Mountain Range.] [Perhaps the Evergreen Mountain Range is thergest in the Great Abyssal Kingdom, but from an open area, what you see could be mountains outside the kingdom.] [After realizing you arepletely lost, you no longer deliberately search for the Evergreen Mountain Range, but instead, you pick a direction and keep moving.] [With your survival now assured, you start practicing the Unnamed Manual daily.] [In the second year, your Martial Dao cultivation shows slight improvement.] [In the third year, still not out of the desert, your Martial Dao cultivation improves a bit more.] [In the fifth year, your Martial Dao cultivation progresses, but you still haven''t broken through to the sixth level of body tempering.] [In the tenth year, you are still in the desert.] [After so many years, you feel you haven''t strayed off course, always moving in one direction.] [But you can''t fathom why the desert is so vast.] [In the thirteenth year, you continue diligently practicing the Unnamed Manual.] [You keep wondering if the Jiang Family has fallen victim to misfortune again.] [In the fifteenth year, your persistent cultivation of the Unnamed Manual finally pays off, and your Martial Dao cultivation breaks through to the seventh level of body tempering.] [In the twentieth year, you feel like a blind cat stumbling upon a dead mouse, finding a way to survive. After all these years, the shadowy figure hasn''te to kill you.] [In the fortieth year, you are in your sixties but still trapped in the desert.] [The good news is, this year your Martial Dao cultivation finally breaks through to the eighth level of body tempering.] [In the forty-third year, you feel the desert ground starting to churn.] [You see something flying out of the desert.] [Suddenly, you see a giant shadow cast over the desert.] [You know that whatever just flew out is now in the air. As you look up to see what it is, you are instantly swallowed whole.] [You died at the age of 63!] [Simtion ended.] [You can choose two rewards from this simtion: Five Elements Fake Spiritual Root (Talent), Martial Dao Cultivation (Eighth Layer of Body Tempering Realm), Desert of Death Map (Iplete).] [Five Elements Fake Spiritual Root (Talent)]: Price 100,000 Energy Value. [Martial Dao Cultivation (Eighth Layer of Body Tempering Realm)]: Price 800,000 Energy Value. [Desert of Death Map (Iplete)]: Price 1 million Energy Value; a map of the routes you traveled in the desert during the simtion. This simtionpletely deviated from the initial n. Originally, with the talent for cultivation, the n was to go to the Evergreen Mountain Range to obtain a cultivation technique and start cultivating. But due to chasing bandits and getting lost, you ended up spending your entire life in the desert. Whether the oue is good or bad is hard to say. Although you didn''t start cultivating, you did live a long time this time. Even if you hadn''t been swallowed by that giant shadow in the end, you might have died of old age soon anyway. Jiang Yifeng thought this could be considered as avoiding the shadowy cultivator. Perhaps this was also a way to live by hiding. As for the giant shadow that appeared at the end? You couldn''t even see its face before it killed you, clearly something extraordinary. Jiang Yifeng couldn''t figure out what it was and didn''t dwell on it. For now, he just kept it in mind since it posed no immediate threat to his real self. Jiang Yifeng was quite interested in all three simtion rewards this time. [Five Elements Fake Spiritual Root (Talent)] is a must-have for cultivation, no doubt about it. Even if it''s described as the worst spiritual root, it''s still the foundation for cultivation. Although Martial Dao is confirmed to be strong, this simtion showed that Martial Dao is really hard to improve. It took forty years to advance just two minor realms. And that''s just the beginning. If you reach higher levels, it will take even more time. So Jiang Yifeng felt that cultivation was still necessary. Even if cultivation is difficult, it can extend your lifespan. A longer lifespan means more time in the simtor to practice. The second reward, [Martial Dao Cultivation (Eighth Layer of Body Tempering Realm)], was also hard to give up. It took forty years to achieve. Not taking it would be wasting one or even multiple simtion attempts. As for the [Desert of Death Map (Iplete)], its other uses are currently unknown. But from this simtion, it''s clear that this map can help avoid the shadowy cultivator, allowing for a longer survival time. If you take this map, in future simtions, you can use it to hide and practice in the Desert of Death. The longer you survive in each simtion, the more your strength will naturally increase. In the long run, this choice is more cost-effective than directly choosing Martial Dao cultivation. After all, it''s better to have consistent meals than just one feast, and Jiang Yifeng understood this well. After much thought, Jiang Yifeng made his choice. "I choose the Five Elements Fake Spiritual Root and the Desert of Death Map." Besides the must-have cultivation talent. [Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining the Five Elements Fake Spiritual Root, deducting 100,000 Energy Value, remaining Energy Value:85,065,000] [Ding, obtained the Desert of Death Map (Iplete)], deducting 1 million Energy Value, remaining Energy Value:84,065,000] As soon as the simtor''s electronic voice finished, an iplete map appeared in Jiang Yifeng''s hand. As for the Five Elements Fake Spiritual Root, Jiang Yifeng didn''t feel anything. Maybe it will only be noticeable once he starts cultivating. Jiang Yifeng nced at his Energy Value again. He hadn''t spent much; there was still plenty left, more than he could use. Since that was the case, there was no need to rush Jiang Dafu to speed up the acquisition of gold and silver treasures! *** Knock, knock, knock! "Feng''er, are you there?" Just as Jiang Yifeng was still staring at the Desert of Death Map, a knock and a call came from outside the door. Hearing the voice, Jiang Yifeng knew it was his father, Jiang Fushan. "My old man is here to give me money." Jiang Yifeng muttered to himself. It seemed like this had happened in the simtor before, where he ran into his father on his way out. Then his father asked why he was acquiring gold and silver treasures and eventually gave him the key to the study where the silver notes were kept. Without hesitation, Jiang Yifeng casually put away the Desert of Death Map and cheerfully went to open the door for Jiang Fushan. Chapter 11: Induce the Qi Sea, Cultivation Entry As expected, things unfolded just as Jiang Yifeng had anticipated. After leaving the key to the study where the silver notes were kept with Jiang Yifeng, Jiang Fushan hurriedly departed, iming he had business to attend to. Watching him leave, Jiang Yifeng felt a sudden pang of sadness. Jiang Fushan had always doted on him excessively. Whatever Jiang Yifeng wanted, as long as Jiang Fushan could provide it, he would find a way to get it for him. Yet, ever since he transmigrated here, Jiang Yifeng had never really cared about this convenient father of his. He only knew that his father was often busy outside, but he never considered how exhausting it might be or whether he faced any dangers. Previously, Jiang Yifeng might not have thought much about it, but after several simtions, he knew that the world outside was far from peaceful. In every simtion, he encountered mountain bandits as soon as he left Green Hills City. So, could his father, who was out all year round, have never encountered them? Thinking about this, Jiang Yifeng''s eyes grew moist. "Damn mountain bandits, they must be eradicated!"Finally, Jiang Yifeng made a decision¡ªto eliminate the bandits! He couldn''t do much to help his father, but he could at least make it safer for him outside. Although this decision was partly driven by personal grievances, it was mostly for his father''s safety. Yes, that''s right, just like that! Jiang Yifeng took the key Jiang Fushan had given him and retrieved a pile of silver notes from the study. Then, he headed straight to the Wu Family Martial Arts School. He stated his purpose directly, hoping that Wu Youdao would lead the effort to eradicate the bandits. After all, he had witnessed Wu Youdao''s strength in the simtor. As long as Wu Youdao took the lead and gathered some other skilled fighters, those mountain bandits wouldn''t stand a chance. Wu Youdao was about to refuse when Jiang Yifeng threw arge pile of silver notes at him. And just like that, the matter was settled. From that day on, the Wu Family Martial Arts School posted notices, offering high sries to recruit "experts" skilled in martial arts. In less than three days, Wu Youdao led arge group out of Green Hills City to eliminate the bandits. Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng, who was secretly orchestrating everything, smiled and then swaggered into the Spring Blossom Pavilion to listen to music at the pleasure house. Eradicating the bandits was necessary, but he couldn''t do it himself. It didn''t fit his yboy persona. If money could solve the problem, why should he get his hands dirty? A few days passed in the blink of an eye. The simtor''s usage count had refreshed today. Jiang Yifeng closed his door early and muttered, "Start simtion." [Simtion count used: 1, remaining: 0] [Drawing Green Talent costs 1000 Energy Value, drawing Blue Talent costs 100,000 Energy Value. Please choose!] "Draw Blue Talent." [Ding, 100,000 Energy Value deducted. Drawing Blue Talent, remaining Energy Value...] [Congrattions, you have obtained Blue Talent: Perfect Aim] [Perfect Aim]: When engaging in intimate activities, your uracy rate reaches an astonishing 100%. Seeing this talent, Jiang Yifeng was stunned. "System, simtor,e out! This is consumer fraud!" Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but vent. He had hoped to draw a better talent, but this? Was this even a talent? A Blue Talent, no less. What use was it? [Ding, please view the talent rationally. This talent is extremely useful for those unable to conceive offspring. Why shouldn''t it be considered a Blue Talent?] Just as Jiang Yifeng finished venting, a sudden electronic voice sounded, startling him. He hadn''t expected the simtor to actually respond. So, Jiang Yifeng quickly asked, "Simtor, can I draw talents multiple times? Deduct more Energy Value if needed!" ... Whether the simtor had a specific way of speaking or simply didn''t want to respond, it didn''t reply again. Seeing that the simtor really wasn''t going to respond, Jiang Yifeng stopped talking and obediently looked at the simtion panel. [Simtion 5 begins.] [You stare at the space in front of you, not seeing any simtion subtitles, realizing you have entered the simtion.] [In reality, you can always see the simtor''s presence.] [So, you begin to think about how to act in this simtion.] [You realize this talent is useless, so you n to follow your original n and head to the Evergreen Mountain Range to obtain the cultivation technique.] [You repeatedly remind yourself not to get distracted this time and to obtain the cultivation technique first.] [On the first day, you quietly leave Green Hills City without alerting anyone.] [On the second day, you travel several hundred kilometers.] [Along the way, you see many ces with traces of blood, indicating past battles.] [On the third day, you hear the sounds of fighting from a distance.] [You recognize it as a fight between ordinary people, posing no threat to you, so you don''t avoid it.] [As you get closer, you discover it''s Wu Youdao''s bandit-eradication team fighting the mountain bandits.] [You observe the battle and see that with Wu Youdao present, the bandits have no chance of resisting.] [So, you quietly leave without intervening.] [On the eighth day, you arrive at the Evergreen Mountain Range and see the ruins.] [During these days of travel, everything is normal, with no unexpected incidents or encounters with bandits.] [You believe that the news of Wu Youdao''s bandit eradication has made the other bandits more cautious.] [On the tenth day, you reach the ruins in the Evergreen Mountain Range.] [As usual, you bury all the skeletons in the ruins, creating a small graveyard nearby.] [Of course, you also obtain the cultivation technique "Heavenly Profound Art" as you wished.] [After finishing everything, you don''t leave but build a small shed beside the ruins and settle down there.] [You n to wait and see who will build the future Heavenly Profound Temple here.] [You think that whoever builds a new temple on these ruins is either a descendant or a friend of the sect.] [You believe that the descendants or friends of a cultivation sect are likely to be cultivators.] [By staying here, you might obtain some useful information.] [Of course, you understand that this involves some risk.] [After all, the cultivators in your previous simtions were not very friendly, and it''s possible that all cultivators might attack those seeking information about cultivation.] [You know this possibility is quite high.] [But after careful consideration, you decide to take the risk, as you currently know too little about cultivators.] [In the following days, you live a very routine life.] [You practice the "Unnamed Manual" martial art every morning, hunt for food at noon, and then study the "Heavenly Profound Art" in the afternoon.] [A month passes, and you finally sense the location of your Qi Sea.] [ording to the technique, once you sense the Qi Sea, you can start channeling the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into it, marking the beginning of your cultivation journey.] [You know this means the "door" to cultivation has opened for you, making you very excited. You eat an extra deer that day.] [Unknowingly, a year passes. Your Martial Dao cultivation is still at the sixth level of body tempering, but you continue to practice the "Unnamed Manual" daily, making slow progress.] [Your cultivation has also barely begun. After a year of effort, you finally manage toplete one cycle of the technique, sessfully channeling a small wisp of spiritual energy into your Qi Sea.] Chapter 12: The Gratitude of the Woman in White [Year Two, you continue to cultivate near the ruins, and nothing else happens.] [After a year, your Qi Sea has umted a dozen strands of spiritual energy.] [Cultivation is harder than you thought. Even after sessfully entering the path, absorbing spiritual energy into your Qi Sea is not easy.] [Most of your cultivation efforts have been in vain.] [You know that for highly talented geniuses, there is a chance to absorb a strand of spiritual energy into their Qi Sea with each cycle of their technique.] [For those with average talent, the sess rate is about fifty percent.] [As for you, the chance of absorbing spiritual energy with each cycle is only a few percent.] [This slow cultivation speed makes you realize once again how poor your talent is. The fake spiritual root truly lives up to its name.] [In the third year, one day, a woman in white suddenly appears above the ruins.][You can''t tell how she appeared, as if she materialized out of thin air.] [You instantly understand that she must be a cultivator, and a very powerful one at that.] [You feel a bit uneasy. Previous simtions have given you a bad impression of cultivators, as every encounter ended in death.] [But to save yourself, you need to understand cultivators, so you muster the courage to approach.] [However, after walking for a long time, you find yourself still in the same spot, not having moved an inch closer.] [You realize that she doesn''t want you to get near.] [You don''t know her intentions, but since she only prevents you from approaching, you think she doesn''t harbor ill will towards you.] [So you stand quietly in ce, not wanting to anger her, hoping for a chance to ask her some questions about cultivation.] [In your eyes, the woman in white keeps staring at the ruins, lost in thought.] [After a long while, she suddenly sighs and waves her long sleeve.] [Instantly, you feel the ground shake, and a Taoist temple slowly rises from the ruins.] [You are dumbfounded by the scene, unable toprehend such immense power.] [You can''t tell if the temple was buried underground or if she created it with her immense power.] [Either way, it makes you acutely aware of the strength of cultivators.] [Half a day passes in the blink of an eye, and the ground stops shaking. The temple, named Heavenly Profound Temple, is fully revealed.] [Before you can take a closer look, the woman in white suddenly appears beside you.] [She asks if you built the graveyard.] [You don''t hide it and nod in affirmation.] [You figure she must be a friend or descendant of the sect that once stood here. Admitting it might earn you some goodwill.] [The woman in white stares at you for a long time, as if judging whether you''re lying.] [After a while, she thanks you for burying her dear friend and offers to help you abolish your cultivation as a reward.] [You are startled; is this how she repays kindness?] [You shake your head repeatedly, unwilling to give up your cultivation.] [The woman in white doesn''t force you but tells you that cultivating in this area will lead to certain death.] [You ask for the reason, but she just shakes her head, saying it''s not something you should know.] [Seeing that she won''t exin, you change the topic and ask about other aspects of cultivation.] [Unfortunately, she doesn''t answer, only saying that with your current strength, knowing more would only lead to a quicker death.] [Finally, seeing your determination not to abolish your cultivation, she hesitates for a moment and then casts a rune at you.] [You are caught off guard, wondering why she suddenly wants to attack you.] [But soon, you realize you were mistaken. After the rune hits you, you don''t feel any difort.] [The woman in white tells you that it''s a Breath Concealing Talisman, which has fused into your body and willst for 20 years. It can conceal your cultivation, making it undetectable.] [Hearing this, you breathe a sigh of relief. You thought she was going to force you to abolish your cultivation!] [However, she also says that if you actively use your powers, the talisman won''t be able to conceal your cultivation. She advises you to avoid revealing your cultivation unless absolutely necessary.] [You take her words to heart, deciding not to expose your strength unless it''s a matter of life and death.] [After that, the woman in white throws you a storage ring, saying it contains some cultivation resources, which shouldst you a long time given your aptitude.] [You thank her profusely, feeling overjoyed inside.] [You know that her kindness is because you buried her friend.] [You keep sighing inwardly, thinking that good deeds indeed bring good rewards!] [What you did out of respect for the dead has unexpectedly brought you so many benefits.] [Three days pass in the blink of an eye. The woman in white walks out of the Heavenly Profound Temple, gives you a nce, and then disappears.] [You check around to confirm that she has indeed left.] [During these few days, aside from the first day, you had no further contact with the woman in white. She spent her time in the temple, lost in thought, not allowing you to approach.] [You don''t know her story or her name, and you don''t care.] [The only disappointment is that you didn''t get much information from her.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng felt a bit disappointed as he read this. "Sigh, it''s still because I''m not strong enough!" He sighed. It was clear that the woman in white in the simtion knew a lot. She wasn''t unwilling to speak but said that with his current strength, knowing more would only lead to a quicker death. It was obviously for his own good. If he were stronger, he might have learned many secrets from her. Jiang Yifeng collected his thoughts and continued to look at the simtion panel. [In the days that followed, you returned to your routine of daily cultivation and hunting.] [Two monthster, you used up a Spirit Stone, and your Qi Sea gained dozens of strands of spiritual energy.] [You sigh, realizing that cultivation indeed requires resources!] [Compared to your previous cultivation speed, where you could only absorb a dozen strands of spiritual energy from the air in a year, now you gained dozens in just two months. The difference is stark.] [One Spirit Stone is equivalent to years of hard cultivation.] [This effectively mitigates your talent deficiency in drawing spiritual energy.] [You understand that this feeling is because of your poor talent.] [For those with good talent, one Spirit Stone wouldn''t make much difference.] [However, you also know that having Spirit Stones doesn''t eliminate the disadvantage of poor talent.] [Your technique''s operation speed is still slow, allowing you to cycle it only once a day.] [This is all rted to talent.] [This is why the woman in white said the resources she gave you wouldst a long time.] [The storage ring contains nearly a thousand Spirit Stones. At your current rate of absorbing one Spirit Stone every two months, it''s enough tost you a lifetime!] Chapter 13: Abundant rewards, hard to choose [Year Four: You prepare to leave the Evergreen Mountain Range.] [You remember that in one simtion, the shadowy figure with a sword killed you here in the eighth year.] [It seemed that your inquiry into cultivators drew him to you.] [You decide it''s safer to leave the Evergreen Mountain Range earlier.] [You hesitate for a long time about where to go next.] [You understand that your dangeres not only from the shadowy figure with the sword but also from the one who attacked the Jiang Family with his palm.] [In the end, you decide to stick to your original n and head to the Desert of Death, where you think you can live by hiding for a longer time.] [Although you have a Breath Concealing Talisman given by the woman in white, which can hide your cultivation, you still feel unsafe.] [You remember that in one simtion, the shadowy figure who attacked the Jiang Family with his palm tracked you down.][At that time, you hadn''t started cultivating yet, so you think he must have some portrait of you, making the Breath Concealing Talisman ineffective against him.] [Year Five: You have ventured deep into the Desert of Death.] [This time, unlike your previous simtion, you have a storage ring and have prepared plenty of food, so you won''t suffer from hunger.] [Your cultivation progress hasn''t stopped either. You continue to practice the Unnamed Manual once a day, then circte the "Heavenly Profound Art" for one cycle, and spend the remaining time on traveling.] [With your diligent cultivation, your Martial Dao is still at the sixth level of body tempering, but your Qi Sea now contains several hundred strands of spiritual energy.] [Year Six: The spiritual energy in your Qi Sea now upies one-tenth of it.] [ording to the cultivation technique, the Qi Refining period is the process of filling up the Qi Sea.] [The stages of the Qi Refining period are also divided based on the amount of spiritual energy in the Qi Sea.] [So at this point, you have truly reached the first level of Qi Refining.] Jiang Yifeng looked at the simtor''s text and couldn''t bear to look directly at it. His talent for cultivation was truly poor. Even with the use of spirit stones, it took him several years to reach the first level of Qi Refining. Although traveling must have wasted a lot of time, Jiang Yifeng felt that it was more a matter of talent. Without spirit stones, Jiang Yifeng believed that with his cultivation talent, he might only reach the first or second level of Qi Refining in his lifetime. Jiang Yifeng shook his head, thinking that this was reasonable. It was said to be the weakest cultivation talent, so the efficiency of cultivation must be extremely poor. Otherwise, if resources alone could easily boost one''s cultivation, then those cultivation families and major sects with abundant resources would be invincible. In the end, cultivation still mainly depends on talent! It seems that to improve quickly, he still has to rely on the simtor to get good talents. Jiang Yifeng continued to look at the simtor. [Year Seven: You continue to walk deeper into the desert while cultivating, not daring to stop, fearing that if you don''t go deep enough, the shadowy figure will find you.] [Year Eight: The spiritual energy in your Qi Sea has increased significantly, but you still haven''t broken through.] [Year Nine: Your Martial Dao cultivation has reached the seventh level of body tempering.] [The improvement in Martial Dao is much faster than in the previous simtion.] [This is because you have started cultivating, and the spiritual energy has strengthened your body, promoting faster improvement in Martial Dao.] [Year Ten: You have reached the second level of Qi Refining and can now use some minor spells.] [Unfortunately, you don''t have any techniques in this area.] [Year Eleven: Everything is safe, and your cultivation steadily improves.] ... [Year Fourteen: This year, you have made great progress. Your Martial Dao has reached the eighth level of body tempering, and your Immortal Dao cultivation has reached the third level of Qi Refining.] [Year Fifteen: You encounter a bit of trouble, facing a pack of wolves.] [Hundreds of sand wolves make you cautious.] [After several days of a tug-of-war, you finally turn them into your reserve food.] [You suffer some injuries as a result.] [You think you''re safe after killing the wolf pack, but a few dayster, you realize that this is just the beginning.] [The strong smell of blood on you continuously attracts various creatures in the desert to attack.] [This leaves you with no time for cultivation, and you spend every day in constant battle.] [One day, after killing an attacking beast, you suddenly feel the desert churning.] [You see a giant ck python rushing towards you from afar.] [Your heart skips a beat, and you start running.] [But it''s toote. The ck python reaches you in an instant and swallows you whole.] [You died at the age of 35.] [This simtion has ended.] [You can choose two rewards from this simtion: Perfect Aim (Talent), Martial Dao Cultivation (Eighth Layer of Body Tempering Realm), Immortal Dao Cultivation (Third Layer of Qi Refining), Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method), Spirit Stones (912 pieces), Storage Ring (one), Breath Concealing Talisman (one).] [Perfect Aim (Talent)]: Costs 100,000 Energy Value. [Martial Dao Cultivation (Eighth Layer of Body Tempering Realm)]: Costs 80,000 Energy Value. [Immortal Dao Cultivation (Third Layer of Qi Refining)]: Costs 30,000 Energy Value. [Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method)]: Costs 10,000,000 Energy Value. [Spirit Stones (912 pieces)]: Costs 912,000 Energy Value;mon cultivation resources. [Storage Ring (one)]: Costs 500,000 Energy Value. [Breath Concealing Talisman (one)]: Costs 1,000,000 Energy Value; a rune personally inscribed on you by a powerful figure, extracted by the simtor and turned into a jade talisman that can be worn at any time. Jiang Yifeng didn''t expect that the Desert of Death, where he had previously lived by hiding for decades, would be so dangerous this time, and he didn''t survive as long as he did while hiding outside. Clearly, the simtion where he survived for decades had an element of luck, as he happened to avoid the creatures in the desert during that time. Judging by this simtion, the ordinary creatures in the Desert of Death aren''t actually dangerous, but killing too many of them and the resulting smell of blood can attract danger. It seems that in future simtions, he can''t go to the Desert of Death casually. Even if he does, he must avoid creating a bloody scent. Jiang Yifeng stopped thinking about it and looked at the rewards in the simtor. This time, the rewards were abundant, making him dizzy with excitement. Many of the rewards, such as spirit stones, storage rings, and Breath Concealing Talismans, werepletely unexpected for Jiang Yifeng. He had never thought that these could be brought out of the simtor. Unfortunately, he could only choose two. Apart from the Perfect Aim talent, Jiang Yifeng wanted everything else. He was torn for a while. After careful consideration, Jiang Yifeng made his choice. "I choose the Breath Concealing Talisman and Immortal Dao Cultivation." These two choices were actuallyplementary. ording to what the woman in white said in the simtion, cultivating would lead to certain death, so the Immortal Dao cultivation must not be exposed. Therefore, the Breath Concealing Talisman was a must. After all, Jiang Yifeng knew that he was destined to cultivate. As for the Immortal Dao cultivation, it took Jiang Yifeng a long time to decide. After all, spirit stones, the Immortal Dao mental cultivation method, and even the storage ring wouldn''t be worse than the Immortal Dao cultivation, and could be better in the long run. What made Jiang Yifeng choose this was that the Immortal Dao mental cultivation method was in that ruin, and he could go find it in the next simtion. As for the spirit stones and the storage ring, Jiang Yifeng felt that he needed to take both together; otherwise, just taking the spirit stones would be inconvenient to carry and might attract other cultivators. So after choosing the Breath Concealing Talisman, he had to give up the others and wait for another opportunity to take advantage of the woman in white. In the end, the choice was between Martial Dao and Immortal Dao. The reason for choosing Immortal Dao was simply curiosity. After all, Jiang Yifeng had never experienced the Immortal Dao and wanted to try it out. [Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining the Breath Concealing Talisman (one), deducting 1,000,000 Energy Value, remaining Energy Value.] [Ding, Immortal Dao Cultivation (Third Layer of Qi Refining) sessfully extracted, deducting 30,000 Energy Value, remaining Energy Value.] Chapter 14: Misidentified as a descendant of a ruined sect As soon as he made his choice, a jade talisman appeared in Jiang Yifeng''s hand. He examined it carefully but couldn''t discern its secrets, so he decided to keep it close to him. After all, this was something that concerned his own safety. At the same time, Jiang Yifeng felt some changes happening in his body. He sensed that there seemed to be strands of energy flowing within him. Gradually, he became aware of the existence of his Qi Sea, where arge amount of spiritual energy was constantly swaying. At this moment, Jiang Yifeng understood that the simtor was extracting Immortal Dao cultivation for him. "Bang!" Jiang Yifeng suddenly felt as if a switch had been flipped in his body, and his physical strength was continuously increasing.In an instant, his Martial Dao cultivation broke through to the seventh level of body tempering. "This..." Jiang Yifeng was taken aback. This waspletely unexpected. He hadn''t anticipated this pleasant surprise; the improvement in his Immortal Dao cultivation had actually elevated his Martial Dao cultivation by a stage in reality. However, upon careful thought, Jiang Yifeng found it quite reasonable. The simtion had mentioned that spiritual energy washing over the body could enhance its strength. In reality, he was already at the peak of the sixth level of body tempering. Now, after being washed by the spiritual energy of the third level of Qi Refining, it was only natural for his physical strength to increase to the seventh level of body tempering. When everything was over, Jiang Yifeng recalled the situation in the simtion. He felt that the most crucial issue now was his poor cultivation talent. To improve, he still needed to upgrade the simtor to extract higher-level talents. So he found the steward, Jiang Dafu, and asked him to speed up the acquisition of gold, silver, and jewels. After doing all this, Jiang Yifeng leisurely headed to the Spring Blossom Pavilion to listen to music. Days spent listening to music in the pleasure house always passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, seven days had gone by. During this period, steward Jiang Dafu had already transported arge amount of gold, silver, and jewels to Jiang Yifeng''s small courtyard. Without hesitation, Jiang Yifeng exchanged them for energy values, and box after box of jewels disappeared. To avoid suspicion from the disappearance of these treasures, Jiang Yifeng had long instructed his subordinates to make a grand show of digging a huge underground chamber in his courtyard. The purpose was to inform everyone that he now had a hobby of collecting, and all these gold, silver, and jewels were hidden underground. Soon, all the gold, silver, and jewels were exchanged, and an electronic voice sounded. [Ding, exchanged 130 boxes of various gold, silver, and jewels, gaining 2.6 billion energy values.] Jiang Yifeng looked at the nearly 2.7 billion energy values on the simtor and waited quietly. Unfortunately, the "ding" he was waiting for never came. "Could it be that it takes 10 billion to upgrade the simtor?" Jiang Yifeng muttered to himself. The previous upgrade required 1 billion energy values, and he originally thought that 10 billion would be enough for the next upgrade. Unexpectedly, even with nearly 2.7 billion energy values, there was no upgrade. This made Jiang Yifeng frown. If it really required 10 billion, how much would the next upgrade need? It was really quite troublesome. If this continued, wouldn''t it bankrupt the Jiang n Firm? Jiang Yifeng felt a bit guilty. Soon, he dismissed these thoughts. It''s just a firm, no big deal. Once he became invincible, he could have whatever he wanted. Since the simtor couldn''t be upgraded, Jiang Yifeng decided not to simte for the time being. After all, simtion attempts could be stored up to three times. He might as well save them; perhaps by the time he had three attempts, he would have enough energy to upgrade the simtor. Day by day, Jiang Yifeng noticed that ever since he elerated the acquisition of gold, silver, and jewels to gain energy, his father, Jiang Fushan, seemed to be getting busier. Jiang Yifeng understood that his actions might have somewhat affected the firm. However, his father didn''t say anything but worked even harder to earn money and make up for the losses he had caused. Seeing his father like this, Jiang Yifeng silently cheered for his old man: "Keep it up!" Then he walked into the Spring Blossom Pavilion to listen to music. Jiang Yifeng felt quite helpless. His persona was like this; if he suddenly changed and became diligent, wouldn''t it be dangerous if someone with ill intentions found out? After all, he didn''t know if the cultivator targeting the Jiang family was constantly watching them. For the safety of himself and the Jiang family, he had to listen to music every day. Really, Jiang Yifeng felt quite innocent. In the blink of an eye, another two weeks passed. During this period, Jiang Yifeng exchanged arge amount of energy values, and now the total energy value was close to 8 billion, still a bit short of 10 billion. The simtor still hadn''t upgraded. Unfortunately, the simtion attempts had umted to three times. Jiang Yifeng knew he couldn''t wait for the simtor to upgrade. So he returned to his room and silently said, "Start simtion!" [Consumed 1 simtion attempt, 2 attempts remaining] [Extracting Green Talent costs 1,000 energy values, extracting Blue Talent costs 100,000 energy values, please choose extraction!] "Extract Blue Talent." [Ding, deducted 100,000 energy values, extracting Blue Talent, remaining energy values: 7.9 billion...] [Congrattions, you have obtained Blue Talent: Human Bomb] [Human Bomb]: Upon your death, a violent explosion will ur, ensuring that the person who wants your life won''t escape unscathed. "Hah!" Jiang Yifengughed in exasperation at this talent. Could this violent explosion kill a powerful cultivator? Jiang Yifeng thought it was impossible. After all, the talent only said they wouldn''t escape unscathed, which probably just meant they would be in a sorry state. In the end, its only function was to ensure that even in death, he wouldn''t leave aplete corpse. It was simply beyond ridicule. Fortunately, Jiang Yifeng had already nned this simtion and didn''t have high hopes for the talent. So he looked at the simtion text. [Simtion 6 begins.] [You survey your surroundings and realize you have entered the simtion.] [You quietly leave Green Hills City alone.] [Five dayster, you arrive at the ruins in the Evergreen Mountain Range.] [Upon arrival, you bury all the bones and erect tombs, and obtain the Immortal Dao mental cultivation method "Heavenly Profound Art."] [This time, you have a little scheme. To please the white-clothed woman who will appearter, you even erect a delicate tombstone for each grave.] [After finishing everything, you build a wooden hut next to the cemetery.] [Then you begin a daily life of cultivation and hunting.] [The first year passes uneventfully.] [The second year also passes without incident.] [In the third year, the white-clothed woman appears in the ruins. To be precise, it can no longer be called ruins!] [You, full of schemes, have long cleaned it up bright and tidy.] [The white-clothed woman looks around in confusion, wondering if she hase to the wrong ce.] [Finally, she looks at the well-maintained cemetery and the small wooden hut beside it where you reside.] [This time, the white-clothed woman doesn''t start by dazing in the ruins but instantly appears before you.] [Before you can react, she grabs your wrist.] [You feel a strong spiritual energy rushing into your meridians, directly reaching your Qi Sea.] [The white-clothed woman is probing the Immortal Dao mental cultivation method you practice.] [After a while, the spiritual energy is withdrawn by the white-clothed woman, who looks at you kindly and says: "So, there are still descendants of my senior brother''s sect."] [You instantly understand that she has mistaken you for a descendant of the sect that once upied these ruins.] Chapter 15: My son, you are truly talented! [The white-robed woman''s mistaken identity, you neither refuted nor confirmed.] [You knew in your heart that if you admitted it directly, you would surely gain her immense favor and receive many benefits.] [But you were also worried about being exposed, thinking that such a powerful cultivator might have some way to detect lies.] [In the end, you chose to stay silent, letting her misunderstand. If she insisted on asking, you would then tell the truth.] [Your silence was taken as tacit agreement by the white-robed woman.] [Contrary to your expectations, she didn''t bombard you with questions but instead informed you that she wanted to stay here for a few days and hoped you would agree.] [Hearing this, you felt a bit panicked, wondering if you had gone too far. She actually mistook you for the owner of this ce, something you had never anticipated.] [You worried that if you were exposed, she might be enraged, and this simtion woulde to an abrupt end.] [However, you knew it was toote to deny it now, so you quickly nodded in agreement.][For the next few days, you were on edge.] [But you were overthinking it; the white-robed woman didn''t pay much attention to you at all.] [She spent her days staring nkly at the ruins and the cemetery.] [She seemed to consider herself a guest, not even bothering to rebuild the Heavenly Profound Temple.] [While the white-robed woman was enjoying her stay, you grew increasingly anxious.] [You felt something was off. It had been two days already, and she should be leaving tomorrow. Why hadn''t she given you any benefits yet?] [You began to suspect that you had overyed your role.] [You wondered if by pretending to be a disciple of the ruined sect, the white-robed woman thought everything you did was your duty, and thus didn''t give you any rewards.] [Another day passed in the blink of an eye. You remembered that in thest simtion, the white-robed woman had only stayed for three days, and today should be the day she left.] [But the benefits you had been eagerly anticipating still hadn''t arrived, leaving you disheartened.] [Just then, the white-robed woman moved and came to your side.] [She told you she was leaving.] [She also informed you that this area was under someone''s control, and cultivation was forbidden. If discovered, you would be hunted down. She advised you not to reveal your cultivation easily.] [She also told you that while she could enter, she couldn''t take anyone out, and hoped you could survive in thisnd.] [After that, she drew a Breath Concealing Talisman on you.] [Then she gave you two items, a jade te and a storage ring.] [She said the storage ring contained some cultivation resources.] [The jade te was a treasure called the Teleportation Jade te. When you encounter danger, you can activate it with spiritual energy to teleport randomly up to a thousand kilometers away, hoping it could save your life in critical moments.] [She exined that the Teleportation Jade te could only be used three times and advised you not to use it lightly unless absolutely necessary.] [Looking at these items, you were extremely excited, thinking that pretending to be a disciple of the ruined sect was a brilliant move.] [This time, the white-robed woman gave you even more things. The Teleportation Jade te was practically a life-saving artifact, probably more valuable than the Breath Concealing Talisman and spirit stones.] [Moreover, she revealed that this area was controlled and cultivation was forbidden, confirming your previous suspicions.] [You didn''t dwell on it further and quickly bowed to thank the white-robed woman.] [When you looked up, she had already disappeared.] [After the white-robed woman left, you didn''t stay there for long.] [You had nned this simtion for a long time, aiming to get the items she gave you and take them out as simtion rewards.] [Then you would return to Green Hills City to investigate why the shadowy figure attacked the Jiang Family.] [So, you returned to Green Hills City that same year.] [It took you only three days to travel from the Evergreen Mountain Range back to Green Hills City.] [When you arrived, you found the entire city stered with reward notices.] [Upon closer inspection, you realized they were all posted by the Jiang n Firm, looking for you.] [You immediately understood that you had left secretly, and no one knew. Your father, Jiang Fushan, probably thought you were missing and posted the reward notices.] [When you returned home, you found your father, Jiang Fushan, looking incredibly aged, unrecognizable from thest time you saw him.] [At that moment, even though you knew it was just a simtion, tears welled up in your eyes.] [Your heart was filled with guilt.] [In the fourth year, you didn''t cultivate but instead followed your father every day, saying you wanted to help him.] [This touched your father, Jiang Fushan, who felt you had finally grown up, and your allowance increased significantly.] [You felt a bit embarrassed, as your real intention wasn''t to help with the business but to find out when the Jiang Family had offended a cultivator.] [In the fifth year, you continued to pretend to learn business from your father, Jiang Fushan, but found nothing unusual.] [In the sixth year, you had apanied your father on many business trips, visiting many unfamiliar cities, broadening your horizons.] [In the seventh year, your father, Jiang Fushan, felt you had learned enough about business and could handle things on your own, so he wanted you to take over the Jiang n Firm.] [Your goal was to stay by your father''s side to find out how the Jiang Family had offended the shadowy figure, not to run the business, so you naturally refused.] [You shook your head repeatedly, saying you still needed to learn.] [Your father was gratified, praising your eagerness to learn, and didn''t force you.] [Years passed in the blink of an eye.] [In the eleventh year, the Jiang n Firm received a major business deal, requiring Jiang Fushan to travel to the Liang Kingdom.] [The journey was long, taking more than half a year just to travel, and your father was worried about idents on the way, not wanting you to apany him.] [You insisted repeatedly, even revealing some of your Martial Dao cultivation.] [Jiang Fushan was overjoyed to see you easily subdue a group of guards, eximing, "My son, you are truly talented!"] [Unsurprisingly, Jiang Fushan agreed to let you apany him.] [In the twelfth year, the business in the Liang Kingdom went smoothly, and you and your father, Jiang Fushan, began your journey back.] [While passing through the Yuyang Mountain at the border of the Liang Kingdom and the Great Abyssal Kingdom, the ground shook violently, and a huge crack appeared not far from you.] [Unable to slow down in time, your entire group fell into the crack.] [With only the third level of Qi Refining and the seventh level of body tempering in Martial Dao, you couldn''t fly and could only watch yourself fall.] [You didn''t know how long it took, but with a thud, you hit the ground.] [The impact knocked you unconscious.] Chapter 16: This reasoning will definitely not be wrong; I have understood everything When you wake up again, you find yourself in an ancient and austere hall. Not far from you, your father, Jiang Fushan, is sitting cross-legged. Above his head, a ball of light is halfway merged into his body. Seeing this, you instinctively think it''s a possession attempt and rush forward to stop it. Unfortunately, as you approach, a light barrier blocks your way. Three days pass in the blink of an eye, and your father, Jiang Fushan, finally wakes up slowly. Just as you are about to ask what happened, a shadowy figure suddenly appears. You hear the shadowy figure shout, "How dare you seek the Immortal Dao inheritance!" Then you see him strike a palm towards your father.At that moment, the light barrier that had blocked you flickers, and your father looks at you anxiously, as if wanting to say something. Before he can speak, he vanishes in an instant, teleported away! Immediately after, you hear the shadowy figure shout angrily, "You can''t escape, I will find you!" Seeing your father, Jiang Fushan, teleported away, the shadowy figure doesn''t hesitate and strikes a palm at you. You could have used the Teleportation Jade te left by the white-robed woman to escape, but you didn''t. The Teleportation Jade te can only be used three times, and you n to take it out of the simtor, fearing that using it in the simtion would reduce its usage count outside. This time, you have already obtained the answers you wanted from the simtion. So, you watch as the shadowy figure''s palm shadow shatters you. The Human Bomb talent activates, and the terrifying explosion permanently ckens the shadowy figure''s skin. You died at the age of 32. This simtion ends. You can choose two rewards from this simtion: Human Bomb (Talent), Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method), Storage Ring (One), Spirit Stone (1000 pieces), Teleportation Jade te (Damaged). Human Bomb (Talent): Price 1 million Energy Value. Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method): Price 10 million Energy Value. Storage Ring (One): Price 500,000 Energy Value. Spirit Stone (1000 pieces): Price 10 million Energy Value. Teleportation Jade te (Damaged): Price 2 million Energy Value; a damaged teleportation array te, can be used three times. This time, Jiang Yifeng''s goal in the simtion was to investigate, so he didn''t focus much on cultivation. He managed to gather a lot of information as he wished. Now, Jiang Yifeng thinks he might have been wrong before. In this simtion, he witnessed his father obtaining the Immortal Dao inheritance twelve yearster. Judging by the situation, this inheritance doesn''t seem weak, so did his father really die in the first simtion where he himself died? Back then, the text he saw in the simtor said that the Jiang Family mansion was destroyed with a single palm strike, and he was killed by falling bricks. Thinking back now, it didn''t say that everyone in the Jiang Family died. In the subsequent simtions, he was only killed by the shadowy figure once. At that time, the shadowy figure called him a leftover faction of the Jiang Family. Was he really deliberately searching for him? He was just an ordinary person who had just entered the Martial Dao. Was he worth the effort for a cultivator to search for? If his father escaped after obtaining the Immortal Dao inheritance, the shadowy figure might have been investigating and searching for him. During this process, he learned that Jiang Yifeng was Jiang Fushan''s son, and by bad luck, Jiang Yifeng encountered the shadowy figure and was killed. Thinking this way, it seems more reasonable. As for why his father didn''t tell him to run the first time but did in ater simtion, it''s the same reasoning as before. In the first simtion, he was just a yboy and wouldn''t have survived if he ran away. Staying in the Jiang Family, his father might have had a glimmer of hope, thinking the shadowy figure might not find him, or even if he did, he could escape with Jiang Yifeng. But his father underestimated the shadowy figure''s strength and overestimated Jiang Yifeng''s luck, so he was killed by falling bricks in an instant. In ater simtion, Jiang Yifeng had started cultivating Martial Dao, so his father, Jiang Fushan, thought it was better for him to leave early to avoid the shadowy figure and increase his chances of survival. The only question now is why it took the shadowy figure a year to find the Jiang Family in the first simtion. Jiang Fushan was quite a notable figure in the Great Abyssal Kingdom. Either the shadowy figure didn''t see his father''s face clearly at the time, or the inheritance his father obtained had some way to hide him. Jiang Yifeng feels he has understood the truth of the matter, and his current deduction must be correct. He is now thinking that if he can stop his father from going to that business meeting in the eleventh year, his father won''t get the Immortal Dao inheritance, and everything might be avoided. Jiang Yifeng thinks he can try this in future simtions. As for reality, there''s no need. He has the simtor and has already started cultivating. In ten years, if he still fears that shadowy figure, wouldn''t that be too pathetic? After finishing his reasoning, Jiang Yifeng looks at the rewards from this simtion. This time, there''s no Breath Concealing Talisman as a reward. He doesn''t know if it''s because the same item can only appear once, or if the simtor thinks one is enough for him and doesn''t include it in the reward list anymore. But it doesn''t matter; Jiang Yifeng didn''t n to exchange for it this time anyway. Before starting the simtion, Jiang Yifeng nned to bring out the Storage Ring and Spirit Stones. He mainly wanted the Spirit Stones. The more Spirit Stones he has in reality, the less he''llck cultivation resources in future simtions if he gets a good cultivation talent. But taking only the Spirit Stones seems dangerous to Jiang Yifeng. Spirit Stones have a unique aura that can be easily sensed by cultivators. So Jiang Yifeng thinks he must have the Storage Ring to block the aura before taking the Spirit Stones. Unfortunately, ns can''t keep up with changes. This time, there''s another life-saving item, the Teleportation Jade te (Damaged). He definitely has to take this. It can save his life in reality and might be very useful in future simtions when he wants to cultivate safely. Jiang Yifeng quickly makes his choice. "I choose the Storage Ring and the Teleportation Jade te (Damaged)." He can only choose two rewards each time. Jiang Yifeng estimates that the simtor might upgrade again soon, and then he might have to choose talents from the simtion rewards. And he will also need to take cultivation levels, making it hard to bring out both the Storage Ring and Spirit Stones together. So he can only take the Storage Ring first. "Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining a Storage Ring (One), deducting 500,000 Energy Value, remaining Energy Value: 7.9 billion..." "Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining the Teleportation Jade te (Damaged), deducting 2 million Energy Value, remaining Energy Value: 7.8 billion..." An ancient ring and an octagonal jade te appear in Jiang Yifeng''s hand. First, Jiang Yifeng keeps the Teleportation Jade te close to him. He doesn''t n to put it in the Storage Ring, fearing that in a real crisis, he won''t have time to take it out and use it. After that, Jiang Yifeng starts ying with the Storage Ring. He puts everything in his room into the Storage Ring and then takes it all out again, enjoying himself immensely. Clearly, it''s his first time encountering a storage item in reality, and he''s a bit overly excited. It takes him a full half hour to stop. Chapter 17: Embodiment of a Foodie Expert The excitement passed, and Jiang Yifeng looked at the remaining two simtion attempts. Instead of starting the simtion immediately, he went to find the butler, Jiang Dafu. He asked how long it would take for the next batch of gold and silver jewelry to arrive. Jiang Dafu hesitated for a long time before finally saying that the firm had been spending too much cash recently, making it difficult to turn around, and the next acquisition hadn''t started yet. Jiang Yifeng was taken aback, realizing that this was definitely due to his recentrge-scale purchases of gold and silver jewelry. He hadn''t expected his actions to impact the Jiang n Firm''s development so quickly. Thinking back, it was only natural that such arge cash flow would have an effect. However, despite the impact, Jiang Yifeng felt that he still needed to gather 10 billion energy value to upgrade the simtor quickly. After all, money was a minor issue; rapidly improving his strength and saving himself was the major concern!So he told Jiang Dafu to acquire another two hundred boxes of gold and silver jewelry, and then they could pause the acquisitions. This was roughly what Jiang Yifeng had estimated. Two hundred boxes of gold and silver jewelry should amount to about 3.4 billion energy value, which should be enough to upgrade the simtor. Once the simtor was upgraded, the Jiang n Firm could take a break! After all, who knew how much energy value would be needed in the future? He still had to rely on the Jiang n Firm to help him; otherwise, earning it himself would be too slow. So, he couldn''t copse the Jiang n Firm just for the immediate energy value. Jiang Dafu was overjoyed to hear that Jiang Yifeng only needed another two hundred boxes of gold and silver jewelry. He praised the young master for his wisdom and then withdrew. At this moment, Jiang Yifeng was thinking that with only two simtion attempts left, even if he waited until next week for the full three attempts, he wouldn''t be able to gather 10 billion energy value. Even if Jiang Dafu started acquiring gold and silver jewelry immediately. It would be impossible to acquire and bring back two hundred boxes within a week. After all, the cities near Green Hills City had almost been bought out by him, and he would need to go to more distant ces for acquisitions. So Jiang Yifeng decided not to continue storing simtion attempts. He returned to his room and silently recited. "Start simtion!" [Consumed 1 simtion attempt, 1 attempt remaining] [Drawing Green Talent consumes 1,000 energy value, drawing Blue Talent consumes 100,000 energy value, please choose!] "Draw Blue Talent." [Ding, 100,000 energy value deducted, drawing Blue Talent, remaining energy value 7.8 billion...] [Congrattions, you have obtained Blue Talent: Big Eater.] [Big Eater]: Your appetite is astonishing, and the food you consume will convert into a small amount of energy, enhancing your physical body, with a limit. Jiang Yifeng was delighted to see this talent. Finally, a talent that looked promising. The talents from previous simtions were all quite useless! Judging by the talent description, it should enhance his Martial Dao, so this simtion would focus on improving his Martial Dao. And since it relied on eating, he would stay in Green Hills City for now. Soon, Jiang Yifeng had a n in mind and then looked at the simtor. [7th simtion begins.] [You briefly zoned out, realizing you had entered the simtion state.] [Thinking of your newly acquired Big Eater talent, you didn''t rush to leave Green Hills City.] [On the first day, you went to thergest restaurant in Green Hills City, "Food Delight Pavilion," and ordered an entire menu.] [After eating more than ten dishes, you still didn''t feel full.] [After consuming so much food, you felt a slight improvement in your Martial Dao cultivation.] [The improvement was equivalent to one session of practicing the Unnamed Manual.] [This made your eyes light up. You could only practice the Unnamed Manual once or twice a day.] [You thought the Big Eater talent was excellent. Eating one meal was almost equivalent to a day''s practice. If you ate all day, wouldn''t your improvement speed skyrocket?] [With that thought, you ordered several more menus, over a hundred dishes.] [To avoid drawing attention, you had the restaurant deliver all the food to the Jiang Family Mansion.] [On the second day, you didn''t go to the Food Delight Pavilion yourself but had a servant order hundreds of dishes to take away, then dismissed the servant and ate alone in the courtyard.] [On the third day, you ordered food and ate.] [In the following days, youpletely transformed into a Foodie Expert, either eating or on the way to eat.] [This significantly elerated your Martial Dao improvement.] [Although you didn''t quickly break through to the eighth level of body tempering, you could feel your progress in Martial Dao every day.] [On the twelfth day, after finishing all the food, the butler Jiang Dafu brought arge batch of gold and silver jewelry and handed it to you.] [Knowing you were in a simtion, you had no particr thoughts and dismissed him.] [A month passed in the blink of an eye, and rumors spread in Green Hills City that the Jiang Family''s cook had an ident.] [The entire household had to order takeout from the Food Delight Pavilion.] [This made many people envious, wanting to work for the Jiang Family.] [Hearing this, you realized that if this continued, your gluttony would be exposed.] [You weren''t afraid of public gossip, but you feared unknown dangers.] [After all, you thought it was impossible for a normal person to eat so much every day. You worried that the organization preventing others from cultivating might notice you.] [So you stopped ordering from the Food Delight Pavilion and had servants buy various meats from the market instead.] [The Jiang Family wasrge, so buying a few hundred pounds of meat daily wouldn''t attract attention.] [You then started grilling meat in your courtyard daily, self-sufficient.] [This didn''t slow your Martial Dao improvement; it even sped it up a bit.] [You concluded that eating various meats provided more enhancement.] [After all, half of the takeout from the Food Delight Pavilion was vegetarian for variety.] [Two years passed in the blink of an eye, and your Martial Dao cultivation recently broke through to the eighth level of body tempering.] [This year, you felt it was time to leave Green Hills City and head to the Heavenly Profound Temple in the Evergreen Mountain Range.] [On a moonless, windy night, you left a letter and sneaked away alone.] [Three dayster, you arrived at the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple.] [As usual, you buried all the remains in the ruins, erected a meticulously crafted tombstone, and cleaned up the ruins.] [You also obtained the Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method, Heavenly Profound Art.] [You then built a small wooden house beside the graveyard and resumed your gluttonous days.] [Two monthster, you realized a problem: the meat stored in your storage ring from Green Hills City wouldn''tst long.] [In just two months, you had already consumed a third of it.] [After that, you spent a few hours daily hunting wild beasts for food.] [In the third year, a white-robed woman appeared on schedule, mistaking you for a descendant of the ruined sect.] [Three dayster, before leaving, she found you and advised you not to reveal your cultivation easily, to carry the hope of the Heavenly Profound Temple, and to live well.] [She then inscribed a Breath Concealing Talisman on you and gave you a Teleportation Jade te and a storage ring.] Chapter 18: Unexpected, the movable Immortal Dao inheritance [Not long after, you also prepared to leave and return to Green Hills City.] [You felt that with your current talent of being a Big Eater, you could improve faster in Green Hills City!] [It only took three days to return to Green Hills City from the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple.] [This time, you left a letter in advance. Although your father, Jiang Fushan, was worried, he didn''t go as far as posting a bounty like before.] [However, after you returned, he still had a heartfelt conversation with you, urging you to always take guards with you when you go out.] [In the fourth year, you rarely went out and spent most of your days just digging in.] [In the fifth year, you continued to dig in every day!] [In the sixth year, with your routine of eating eight meals a day, each consisting of ten bowls, your Martial Dao cultivation sessfully broke through to the ninth level of Body Tempering.] [In the blink of an eye, several years passed.][In the ninth year, you found that no matter how much you ate, your Martial Dao cultivation couldn''t advance any further.] [You felt a bit disappointed. You had originally hoped to quickly improve your Martial Dao cultivation with your Big Eater talent, but you didn''t expect to hit a bottleneck so soon.] [However, you quickly came to terms with it. After all, Big Eater was just a blue talent; its upper limit might not be that high.] [So, you tried practicing the Unnamed Manual once, and saw some slight improvement.] [This made you sigh in admiration; the Unnamed Manual was indeed impressive.] [You thought the only drawback of the Unnamed Manual was its slow progress!] [Of course, you only thought this in your heart. You knew it was slow because you couldn''t find the pills toplement your cultivation.] [In the eleventh year, your father received an invitation to go to the Liang Kingdom for business talks.] [Upon hearing this, you remembered that in the twelfth year, when your father returned, he would obtain an Immortal Fate, attracting the shadowy figures.] [So, you decided to stop your father from going to the Great Abyssal Kingdom, hoping to change the course of events.] [But your efforts were in vain. This business deal was too significant, and although your father, Jiang Fushan, doted on you, he didn''t agree with your suggestion.] [He only gave you arge amount of silver notes to appease you.] [Unwilling to give up, you resorted to drastic measures, stabbing yourself in the chest and severely injuring yourself.] [Your father, Jiang Fushan, was thus forced to abandon the business trip to the Great Abyssal Kingdom.] [In the days that followed, your father stayed by your side, taking care of you as you recovered.] [In the blink of an eye, a year passed, and your injuries healed. Your father had hardly gone out during this year, being tightly bound to the Jiang Family Mansion by you.] [In the twelfth year, you suddenly sensed the ground shaking, and a massive crack appeared in the middle of Green Hills City.] [Everyone in the city fell into the crack.] [As you fell, your eyes widened in disbelief.] [This event waspletely unexpected. You couldn''t understand why what had happened at Yuyang Mountain on the border of the Great Abyssal Kingdom and Liang Kingdom was now happening in Green Hills City.] [With a thud, you hit the ground and lost consciousness.] [You didn''t know how much time had passed, but when you woke up, you saw your father sitting cross-legged.] [A ball of light was merging into his body from above his head.] [You tried to approach him, but a light barrier blocked your way.] [Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and a shadowy figure suddenly appeared, shouting, "How dare you seek the Immortal Dao inheritance!"] [Then he struck a palm towards your father.] [You saw the light barrier flicker a few times. Your father looked at you anxiously, as if he wanted to say something.] [Before he could speak, your father, Jiang Fushan, was teleported away!] [The shadowy figure shouted, "You can''t escape; I will find you!"] [Then he nced at you and struck a palm towards you.] [This time, you didn''t n to surrender. You quickly activated the Teleportation Jade te and vanished instantly.] [In the blink of an eye, you appeared in a city a thousand miles away.] [Your sudden appearance startled the townsfolk.] [For a moment, the vendors and passersby all looked at you, and some even knelt down, calling you a deity.] [But you didn''t notice any of this; you only felt dizzy and unsteady.] [You guessed this was a side effect of the rapid teleportation.] [Suddenly, you stumbled, and a nearby vendor in ck cloth quickly came over to support you.] [Just as you were about to thank him, you saw the vendor smile mysteriously.] [You immediately felt something pierce through your heart.] [Your consciousness began to fade, and you vaguely heard the vendor say, "What luck! I didn''t expect to find a local cultivator and score a kill."] [You died at the age of 32.] [This simtion has ended.] [You can choose two rewards from this simtion: Big Eater (Talent), Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method), Martial Dao Cultivation (Body Tempering Perfection), Spirit Stones (2000 pieces)] [Big Eater (Talent): Price 100,000 Energy Value.] [Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method): Price 10,000,000 Energy Value.] [Martial Dao Cultivation (Body Tempering Perfection): Price 100,000 Energy Value.] [Spirit Stones (2000 pieces): Price 2,000,000 Energy Value.] Jiang Yifeng stared at the text on the simtor, feeling a bit lost. He had thought that by stopping his father from going to the Great Abyssal Kingdom in the simtion, they wouldn''t obtain the Immortal Dao inheritance, thus avoiding the Jiang Family''s crisis. He never expected that the Immortal Dao inheritance could change locations. Jiang Yifeng couldn''t understand the principle behind it. But he had a general idea that the Immortal Dao inheritance was targeting his father. There was no way to avoid it; as long as the time came, the inheritance would find his father, Jiang Fushan, no matter where he was. "It seems my father has deeper secrets!" Jiang Yifeng muttered to himself. He didn''t n to delve into it now, but it made him feel a bit troubled. He had originally wanted to change his father''s movements to avoid the shadowy figure and extend the simtion time to improve his cultivation. Now it seemed that path was not feasible. Besides, there was another point in this simtion that made Jiang Yifeng feel a bit scared. That was the ck-clothed vendor who attacked him at the end. ording to the simtion, ordinary people were shocked and even worshipped him as a deity when they saw him appear out of thin air through teleportation. But the ck-clothed vendor attacked him, so he couldn''t be an ordinary person. Especially thest sentence, "scored a kill." The more he thought about it, the more terrifying it became. Jiang Yifeng realized that those who obstructed others from cultivating or even investigated cultivation matters might not be just one or two people but arge organization. This organization might have already infiltrated the grassroots, hiding among the masses. Jiang Yifeng thought that there might be such people hiding in Green Hills City as well. Thinking back to the second simtion, he had been killed after searching for cultivators for several years. He was indeed lucky! Of course, it could also be that this organization didn''t kill those who sought immortality but those who were close to bing cultivators. For example, in that simtion, he was killed only when he approached the Heavenly Profound Temple. And there was indeed a white-robed woman, a cultivator, who had appeared there. Perhaps the organization had learned about the Heavenly Profound Temple''s location shortly after the white-robed woman appeared. Thinking this way, Jiang Yifeng felt fortunate that in previous simtions, he had left after the white-robed woman departed. Otherwise, he might have died even earlier in those simtions! Chapter 19: Simulation energy exceeds 10 billion, yet cannot upgrade the Simulator Jiang Yifeng shook his head, putting away all his thoughts. He felt that thinking too much now was useless. In the future, not showing any signs of cultivation in reality was fundamental to staying safe. He then turned his attention to the rewards from this simtion. Jiang Yifeng didn''t hesitate much about the rewards this time. The Big Eater (Talent) had reached its limit after perfecting his body, so there was no need to choose it again. He had long wanted to select the Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method), but there was no rush. The method was always there, and he could obtain it in any simtion, so he would choose itter when the opportunity arose. Quickly, Jiang Yifeng made his choice. "I choose Spirit Stones (2000 pieces) and Martial Dao Cultivation (Body Refining Perfection)." [Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining 2000 Spirit Stones, deducting 20 million energy points, remaining energy value 7.8 billion...][Martial Dao Cultivation (Body Refining Perfection) sessfully extracted, deducting 100,000 energy points, remaining energy value 7.8 billion...] Immediately, Jiang Yifeng felt a warm current pass through his body, with his bones making slight "crackling" sounds. He understood that this was the simtor enhancing his Martial Dao cultivation. The process involved a slight pain, but fortunately, it didn''tst long. After the enhancement, Jiang Yifeng clenched his fists, clearly feeling that his strength had increased several times. He now just wanted to shout: "Who else!" Fortunately, he was rational enough to quickly control his impulse. With his cultivation in hand, Jiang Yifeng looked around but didn''t find the Spirit Stones. He couldn''t help but softly call out. "Simtor, simtor, where are the Spirit Stones?" [Ding, the Spirit Stones have been ced in the host''s storage ring, please check!] Upon hearing this, Jiang Yifeng hurriedly checked his storage ring. Sure enough, 2000 Spirit Stones were piled up inside. With all rewards confirmed, Jiang Yifeng looked at the remaining simtion chance in the simtor, pondering whether to continue simting. The simtor could store up to three simtion chances, with half a month left before reaching the limit. Could he gather enough energy points to upgrade the simtor during this time? Could the steward Jiang Dafu bring back 200 chests of gold and silver within half a month? Jiang Yifeng wasn''t sure, but he decided to wait and see. After making his decision, Jiang Yifeng left the Jiang Family Mansion and headed towards the Spring Blossom Pavilion. The yboy persona was unshakable. However, as Jiang Yifeng walked down the street, he subconsciously observed the crowd. Especially those wearing ck clothes, he even wanted to keep a few steps away from them. The days of listening to music at the pleasure house passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed. At this time, Jiang Yifeng''s simtion chances had returned to three. And steward Jiang Dafu was indeed reliable. The 200 chests of gold and silver had just been delivered, and Jiang Yifeng arranged for them to be ced in his basement. Now, the basement looked like it had over a thousand chests. Of course, most of them were empty chests used by Jiang Yifeng to mislead others. Ignoring the empty chests, Jiang Yifeng ced his hand on the 200 chests containing gold and silver. He converted them one by one into energy points. As Jiang Yifeng converted them, the number of empty chests in the basement increased by 200. [Ding, conversion sessful, obtained 3.8 billion energy points, remaining energy value 12.6 billion...] ... After a long while, Jiang Yifeng was a bit dazed. What was going on? 10 billion energy points still weren''t enough to upgrade? Jiang Yifeng frowned, wondering if he had made a mistake somewhere. So he tried calling out in his mind, "Simtor upgrade?" [Ding, detected that the host''s strength is too low to meet the upgrade conditions!] [Solemn reminder to the host, the next upgrade condition for this simtor is: possess 1 billion energy points, and either Immortal Dao or Martial Dao cultivation must reach the second major realm.] "Damn it, why didn''t you say so earlier!!" Jiang Yifeng was about to go crazy. He had been waiting for the simtor to upgrade, thinking he could draw a better talent and quickly enhance his strength. Now he was told that the energy points for the upgrade had long been sufficient, but hecked the strength and realm. Wasn''t this a joke! Jiang Yifeng''sints received no response from the simtor. He shook his head helplessly. This might be the trouble of being wealthy. Clearly, the energy points were enough to upgrade the simtor. Now, the value had to be disyed with ellipses, but he was stuck at insufficient strength. The simtor probably didn''t expect to be bound to such a wealthy host who didn''t need to worry about energy points. It seemed that he needed to focus on enhancing his strength in future simtions. Since that was the case, Jiang Yifeng didn''t hesitate any longer and silently chanted in his mind. "Start simtion!" [Consume 1 simtion chance, remaining chances 2] [Drawing Green Talent consumes 1000 energy points, drawing Blue Talent consumes 100,000 energy points, please choose!] "Draw Blue Talent." [Ding, deducting 100,000 energy points, drawing Blue Talent, remaining energy value 12.6 billion...] [Congrattions, you have obtained Blue Talent: Luck +1] [Luck +1]: Your luck is slightly better than the average person. Looking at this luck-rted talent, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t tell if it was good or bad. So he didn''t think much about it and looked at the simtor''s progress. [8th simtion begins.] [You sense that you have entered the simtion.] [On the first day, you leave a letter at home and sneak out of Green Hills City under the cover of darkness.] [On the fourth day, you arrive at the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple in the Evergreen Mountain Range.] [On the fifth day, you clean up the ruins, bury all the skeletons, and build a delicate cemetery.] [At the same time, you obtain the Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method "Heavenly Profound Art."] [In the following days, you practice the unnamed cultivation method once a day, and spend the rest of your time either searching for food or fully cultivating the "Heavenly Profound Art."] [In the first year, you consume 6 Spirit Stones, and your Immortal Dao cultivation improves.] [In the second year, you consume another 6 Spirit Stones, feeling that you are close to reaching the fourth level of Qi Refining.] [In the third year, a white-robed woman suddenly arrives, mistaking you for a disciple of the ruined sect.] [Three dayster, when she leaves, she ns to leave you some life-saving items and resources.] [But she finds that you already have them, so she just waves her hand and says goodbye.] [After the white-robed woman leaves, you feel a bit frustrated, realizing you should have hidden your cultivation resources.] [You don''t mind having one Breath Concealing Talisman and one Teleportation Jade te, but not getting any Spirit Stones makes you a bit heartbroken.] [But there''s nothing you can do about it now.] [This time, you n to focus on improving your cultivation to meet the simtor upgrade conditions.] [Feeling unsafe here, you pack up and prepare to leave.] [As for where to go? You hesitate for a while!] [Based on your previous simtions, the shadowy figure who attacked the Jiang Family wasn''t specifically targeting you.] [Actually, with the Breath Concealing Talisman, as long as you don''t expose your cultivation and your luck isn''t too bad, you should be safe.] [But that''s just your assumption, not yet verified. To be more cautious, you decide to head to the Desert of Death.] [It''s the ce where you survived the longest in multiple simtions. Although there was an ident the second time, you are well-prepared this time.] [You believe that as long as you avoid creating too much bloodshed, you should be able to live by hiding.] [In the fourth year, you reduce your cultivation time, spending most of your time traveling. You follow the route from the Desert of Death Map (Fragment) and cover a considerable distance.] Chapter 20: Green Robe battles the giant dragon [In the fifth year, you arrived at an oasis in the desert.] [After examining the Desert of Death Map (fragment), you realized that the final destination was only a few thousand miles away.] [You knew that the destination was the ce where you first died in this desert, where a giant shadow loomed. You suspected it was a powerful demonic beast.] [So, you stopped and decided to settle down at this oasis, not daring to get any closer.] [In the same year, your cultivation in the Immortal Dao finally broke through to the fourth level of Qi Refining.] [In the sixth year, youpletely settled in the oasis in the desert. Besides cultivating, you went out to hunt animals to fill your hunger.] [With lessons learned from previous simtions, you always chose solitary animals to avoid attracting too many and causing a heavy scent of blood.] [In the seventh year, you continued to diligently cultivate and made significant progress.] [In the ninth year, your cultivation in the Immortal Dao broke through to the fifth level of Qi Refining.][In the thirteenth year, you reached the sixth level of Qi Refining.] [In the eighteenth year, you reached the seventh level of Qi Refining.] [In the twenty-third year, you reached the eighth level of Qi Refining.] [In the twenty-eighth year, you reached the ninth level of Qi Refining.] [Over these years, without any external disturbances and consuming hundreds of Spirit Stones, your cultivation in the Immortal Dao steadily improved.] [On a certain day in the thirtieth year, after waking up, you practiced the Unnamed Manual as usual. Just as you finished, you suddenly sensed a stream of energy flowing through your flesh.] [You knew clearly that this was not spiritual energy but Martial Dao Primordial Energy condensed from your flesh.] [You didn''t expect that by merely practicing the Unnamed Manual once a day, the Martial Dao you were about to give up on would actually break through to the second major realm, the Condensing Core Realm.] [You just smiled faintly at this. Decades of cultivation had made your mindset much more serene.] [In the days that followed, you did not intensify your Martial Dao cultivation despite the breakthrough.] [Most of your time was still spent on cultivating the Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method, as you had Spirit Stone resources for the Immortal Dao.] [However, youcked the pills or the blood and essence of demonic beasts needed to enhance your physical body''s vitality for Martial Dao cultivation.] [You thought that there might be demonic beasts in this desert, like the giant shadow that devoured you in previous simtions, and that ck giant python.] [But you wanted to simte for a few more years and didn''t dare to target them yet!] [Of course, you also considered using the extreme methods in the Unnamed Manual to cultivate Martial Dao, but unfortunately, this required specific dangerous ces.] [And you didn''t know where such ces were.] [In the thirty-third year, you reached the peak of the Qi Refining period.] [After reaching the peak of Qi Refining, you needed to break through to Foundation Establishment to continue improving.] [The Mental Cultivation Method of the Heavenly Profound Art stated that the Qi Sea must be filled, and the gathered Qi must condense into liquid to achieve Foundation Establishment.] [You understood that after reaching the peak of Qi Refining, you needed to liquefy the spiritual energy to break through to the Foundation Establishment period.] [You didn''t know if there was any quick method to condense spiritual energy into liquid.] [You could only continuouslypress the spiritual energy by circting the Mental Cultivation Method.] [It was a long process, but you were not discouraged and kept working hard.] [In the thirty-fourth year, you were stillpressing the spiritual energy without much progress.] [In the thirty-fifth year, you sessfullypressed a few strands of spiritual energy together, causing them to start merging. Each strand became slightly thicker, but there was no sign of turning into liquid.] [Years passed in the blink of an eye.] [In the forty-first year, you sessfullypressed and merged multiple strands of spiritual energy into a single droplet.] [You were somewhat excited, feeling like you saw the hope of Foundation Establishment.] [But this was just the beginning. You needed to turn all the spiritual energy in your Qi Sea into liquid to step into Foundation Establishment.] [In the forty-third year, while cultivating, you suddenly felt a tremor.] [You felt a bit uneasy, recalling the giant shadow in the desert from your first simtion. You remembered that it seemed to fly out of the desert this year.] [You felt somewhat reassured, thinking you were still far from that location.] [However, you didn''t let your guard down and stopped cultivating, holding the Teleportation Jade te in your hand, ready to teleport away if anything went wrong.] [At that moment, you saw a dragon shadow appear in the distant sky.] [Although it was far away, you were certain it was a dragon.] [This made you even more anxious. As a transmigrator, you had only heard of dragons in mythological stories, where they were synonymous with invincible power.] [But then you saw an astonishing scene.] [A dazzling light suddenly burst out in front of the demonic dragon, shooting straight towards it.] [Immediately, a high-pitched dragon roar echoed, audible even from thousands of miles away.] [It was then that you noticed a small ck dot in front of the demonic dragon.] [Previously, due to the distance, you hadn''t observed this detail.] [Now it seemed that the ck dot was likely a person.] [You suddenly thought that perhaps a cultivator was fighting the demonic dragon?] [Time passed bit by bit as you watched the sky from afar.] [Your guess was soon confirmed; indeed, someone was battling the demonic dragon.] [Their battlefield was gradually moving towards you.] [You could now clearly see the figure fighting.] [The person, d in a green robe, was evenly matched with the demonic dragon, which seemed to be thousands of meters long.] [The figure felt inexplicably familiar, as if you had seen them before.] [But you had no time to ponder who this person was.] [The battle between the person and the dragon was terrifying. The intensity of the fight made you feel that if you got caught in it, you would surely die.] [Now that their battlefield was very close to you, you decided it was time to run.] [Without hesitation, you activated the Teleportation Jade te and instantly disappeared from your original spot.] [When you reappeared, the scene before you almost made you wet your pants.] [You had been teleported right in front of the demonic dragon.] [The earth-colored demonic dragon was also stunned to see you appear, but it quickly spewed a mouthful of dragon mes towards you.] [In your panic, you tried to activate the Teleportation Jade te again.] [But the aftereffects of the previous teleportation made it difficult for you to gather Qi to activate the teleportation array.] [Just as you thought this simtion was about to end, you suddenly heard a familiar voice: "Feng''er!"] [Then you saw a familiar face appear in front of you, blocking the dragon mes.] [You didn''t expect that the familiar figure in the green robe was actually your father, Jiang Fushan.] Chapter 21: Fortune favors the bold! ¡¾So many years have passed, and you, at the ninth level of Qi Refining, already have the appearance of a middle-aged man. However, your father, Jiang Fushan, looks unchanged.¡¿ ¡¾You know that this is because your father''s cultivation level has reached a realm you can''tprehend.¡¿ ¡¾You have many questions in your heart, but clearly, now is not the time to ask.¡¿ ¡¾After blocking the dragon mes of the giant dragon, your father, Jiang Fushan, directly threw you far away.¡¿ ¡¾You feel yourself spinning rapidly in the air, but you don''t feel any difort because you sense a gentle spiritual energy enveloping you.¡¿ ¡¾You understand that this must be a technique used by your father.¡¿ ¡¾At the same time, you hear your father shout, "Run, escape along the desert from this sealednd."¡¿ ¡¾As soon as he finished speaking, your father, Jiang Fushan, resumed his fierce battle with the earth-colored demonic dragon.¡¿ ¡¾By the time yound, you are already thousands of miles away. However, with your father Jiang Fushan''s spiritual energy surrounding you, you are not injured when you hit the ground.¡¿¡¾You look back and can vaguely see the battle between your father and the demonic dragon.¡¿ ¡¾But you have no intention of staying to watch.¡¿ ¡¾You know that staying here would only be a burden to your father, Jiang Fushan.¡¿ ¡¾From your father Jiang Fushan''s shout, you vaguely understand a few things.¡¿ ¡¾The sealednd he mentioned might be the area the white-robed woman said was controlled to prohibit cultivation.¡¿ ¡¾Your father said to escape along the desert, and you think that perhaps crossing the desert would mean leaving the area where cultivation is forbidden.¡¿ ¡¾Without hesitation, you start running towards the depths of the desert.¡¿ ¡¾In the blink of an eye, half a day has passed. With your full-speed sprint, you have already reached the ce where the demonic dragon emerged.¡¿ ¡¾This is the same ce where you died in the Desert of Death during your first simtion.¡¿ ¡¾Here, you can still see a massive crevice cave, and the surrounding sand hasn''t filled it in.¡¿ ¡¾You look at the downward cave, and it feels like a voice in your heart is urging you to explore it.¡¿ ¡¾For a moment, you hesitate.¡¿ ¡¾You think about how you just ran for half a day, yet you haven''t covered as much distance as your father''s casual throw.¡¿ ¡¾If a powerful pursuer were to chase you, you feel you wouldn''t be able to escape.¡¿ ¡¾You also recall the novels you read in your previous life, where demonic dragonirs usually contain treasures.¡¿ ¡¾You think that encountering such an opportunity is rare, and knowing the demonic dragon is out, their shouldn''t be too dangerous.¡¿ ¡¾The saying goes, "Fortune favors the bold," and you''ve already made up your mind.¡¿ ¡¾You think that if someone were to chase you, you wouldn''t be able to escape anyway.¡¿ ¡¾So you might as well enter the demonic dragon''sir to see if there are any treasures.¡¿ ¡¾In the end, you jump down into the crevice cave.¡¿ ¡¾The crevice cave is very deep, and it takes several tens of seconds before yound.¡¿ ¡¾Fortunately, you are no longer a mortal. Although you can''t fly yet, dissipating force in the air is easy for you, so you aren''t injured from such a height.¡¿ ¡¾You look around at the scene. The bottom of the crevice cave, which is several thousand meters deep, isn''t as dark as you imagined.¡¿ ¡¾Moreover, the underground area in this desert surprisingly has no sand or stones; it''s all glittering gold.¡¿ ¡¾The sight dazzles you.¡¿ ¡¾The underground area is vast, and you carefully search around, hoping to find some treasures.¡¿ ¡¾After several tens of minutes, you discover that besides the countless gold and arge number of Night Pearls, there are no cultivation items here.¡¿ ¡¾If this were reality, such a vast amount of gold and Night Pearls would be immensely valuable to you, worth a fortune in Energy Value.¡¿ ¡¾But you clearly know that you are in a simtion, and these things are of no use to you.¡¿ ¡¾You sigh helplessly and prepare to leave, but returning to the desert above bes a big problem.¡¿ ¡¾After several attempts at climbing, you give up and finally decide to use the teleportation array disk.¡¿ ¡¾As for where you will end up, you can only rely on luck.¡¿ ¡¾With a sh from the teleportation array disk, you disappear from your original spot.¡¿ ¡¾When you reappear, you find that you are not above the desert.¡¿ ¡¾But seeing the glittering golden walls, you realize you are still in the demonic dragon''sir.¡¿ ¡¾You are curious about this ce since you didn''t see it during your previous exploration of the undergroundir.¡¿ ¡¾You wonder if this is the hidden treasure chamber of the demonic dragon.¡¿ ¡¾Thinking of this, you feel a bit excited and start scanning your surroundings.¡¿ ¡¾You find that this ce seems small, like a secret chamber.¡¿ ¡¾Aside from the glittering gold, there is nothing else, not even an entrance or exit.¡¿ ¡¾However, in the center, there is a huge golden egg.¡¿ ¡¾Seeing this golden egg, the words "dragon egg" pop into your mind.¡¿ ¡¾"Raise a dragon?" You wipe the drool from the corner of your mouth, feeling conflicted.¡¿ ¡¾Not long after, you light a fire and ce the dragon egg on a makeshift grill.¡¿ ¡¾You think this is only fair; the demonic dragon ate you once in the previous simtion, so now you eat its offspring to even the score!¡¿ ¡¾You consider yourself a magnanimous person, not holding grudges.¡¿ ¡¾A few minutester, the dragon egg shows no signs of cooking.¡¿ ¡¾At this moment, you hear a loud dragon roar.¡¿ ¡¾Though you don''t understand the meaning of the roar, you sense that the demonic dragon is returning.¡¿ ¡¾You frown and strike the dragon egg with a hammer.¡¿ ¡¾You think to yourself, whether it''s cooked or not, you''re determined to eat this dragon egg today!¡¿ ¡¾You start sucking through the crack you made.¡¿ ¡¾Meanwhile, the dragon roar outside echoes through the heavens, tinged with a hint of urgency.¡¿ ¡¾At this moment, you seem to understand that the demonic dragon has sensed someone tampering with its egg.¡¿ ¡¾Run? A thought of escape crosses your mind.¡¿ ¡¾But you quickly dismiss it.¡¿ ¡¾It''s a dragon egg, after all. If you finish it, you believe it will significantly boost your strength.¡¿ ¡¾You speed up your sucking of the dragon egg while muttering, "Run? Forget it, I''ll just wait for the next simtion."¡¿ ¡¾As you suck the dragon egg, you feel your body heating up, and the strength of your physical body noticeably increases.¡¿ ¡¾Condensing Yuan Stage Two, Condensing Yuan Stage Three... your Martial Dao is continuously improving.¡¿ ¡¾These are the benefits you expected.¡¿ ¡¾But besides these, there is another phenomenon that frightens you.¡¿ ¡¾You even consider stopping your consumption of the dragon egg.¡¿ ¡¾You see arge amount of golden dragon qi continuously flowing into your Qi Sea, but it neither merges with your spiritual energy nor transforms it into liquid.¡¿ ¡¾Instead, it keeps expanding your Qi Sea, making itrger andrger.¡¿ ¡¾At the same time, your Immortal Dao cultivation decreases instead of increasing, dropping from the peak of Qi Refining to the ninth level, then the eighth, all the way down to the third level of Qi Refining.¡¿ Chapter 22: Simulator Upgrade 3.0 ¡¾If it were just that, you wouldn''t be worried.¡¿ ¡¾Although your cultivation level has decreased, you don''t feel any loss in strength.¡¿ ¡¾Even though your knowledge of cultivation is iplete, you believe that the expansion of your Qi Sea has solidified your foundation, which will surely be beneficial in the future.¡¿ ¡¾However, this isn''t the end. You sense that as your Qi Sea expands to a certain size, cracks begin to appear, as if it''s about to explode.¡¿ ¡¾What would happen if your Qi Sea bursts? You think that you would definitely be unable to cultivate anymore!¡¿ ¡¾Now you face a choice: continue absorbing the dragon egg to enhance your martial cultivation andpletely give up on cultivation.¡¿ ¡¾Or abandon the enhancement of martial cultivation to preserve your chance at cultivation.¡¿ ¡¾If this were reality, you would definitely stop absorbing the dragon egg immediately to save your Qi Sea, but since this is a simtion...¡¿ ¡¾Heh, you grin and speed up your absorption of the dragon egg.¡¿¡¾"Crack, crack," you can vaguely hear the sound of your Qi Sea fracturing.¡¿ ¡¾Is your Qi Sea about to shatter? You think to yourself.¡¿ ¡¾"Boom!" With a loud explosion, you burst!¡¿ ¡¾No need to think about it, you''re dead! You lived to the age of 63.¡¿ ¡¾This simtion has ended.¡¿ ¡¾You can choose two rewards from this simtion: Luck +1 (Talent), Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method), Martial Dao Cultivation (Ninth Level of Condensing Core Realm), Immortal Dao Cultivation (Perfect Qi Refining/Third Level of Qi Refining).¡¿ ¡¾Luck +1 (Talent): Price 1 million Energy Value.¡¿ ¡¾Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method): Price 100 million Energy Value.¡¿ ¡¾Ninth Level of Condensing Core Realm (Martial Dao Cultivation): Price 9 million Energy Value.¡¿ ¡¾Immortal Dao Cultivation (Perfect Qi Refining/Third Level of Qi Refining): Price 950,000 Energy Value/100 million Energy Value.¡¿ (Note: You can only choose one for Immortal Dao Cultivation. Perfect Qi Refining is a normal cultivation level, while Third Level of Qi Refining is the cultivation level after absorbing the dragon egg, with an expanded Qi Sea and some dragon essence. Note: The cracks in the Qi Sea have been repaired by the simtor.) Jiang Yifeng looked at the simtor, surprised that in this simtion, he didn''t die from being killed. But from overeating! However, thinking about the gains from this simtion, he couldn''t help but smile. The rewards from this simtion were incredibly rich. There were two particrly important pieces of information. First, he learned that his father did not die in the event thirteen yearster. In fact, even forty yearster, he was able to fight a Demonic Dragon, indicating that he had be an extremely powerful cultivator. Second, he discovered a way to leave this so-called sealednd. ording to his father Jiang Fushan in the simtion, crossing the Desert of Death might allow him to escape. Jiang Yifeng felt that in future simtions, he must find a way to leave here. Otherwise, theck of resources for cultivation and the constant need to evade pursuit would hinder his progress. The rewards from this simtion were also unexpected. There were two options for Immortal Dao Cultivation. Although one was only at the third level of Qi Refining, Jiang Yifeng believed it was better than Perfect Qi Refining. The simtor had indicated that this was the cultivation level after expanding the Qi Sea. Although Jiang Yifeng didn''t know much about Immortal Dao, he knew that arger Qi Sea meant more spiritual energy storage and greater strength in the future. Moreover, this third level of Qi Refining cultivation even contained some dragon essence in the Qi Sea. Jiang Yifeng didn''t know what dragon essence was, but he believed it was rted to the dragon egg he absorbed in the simtion. Anything rted to dragons couldn''t be weak, right? So Jiang Yifeng didn''t need to think much; he had to choose this third level of Qi Refining cultivation. Choosing this would make his path in Immortal Dao more powerful and longersting. As for the other reward, he could put off the Heavenly Profound Art for now. In reality, he wouldn''t actively cultivate or fight, so the Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method wasn''t urgent. That left him with a choice between Luck +1 and Martial Dao Cultivation. Jiang Yifeng felt that the Luck +1 talent might be useful, but also might not be. It was hard to judge. It might have been useful in finding the dragon egg this time, but it didn''t prevent his death. In the end, Jiang Yifeng shook his head and made his choice. "I choose Martial Dao Cultivation (Ninth Level of Condensing Core Realm) and Immortal Dao Cultivation (Third Level of Qi Refining)." Jiang Yifeng felt that Luck +1, a blue talent, might be useful asionally, but not consistently. Strength was more important. ¡¾Ding, Martial Dao Cultivation (Ninth Level of Condensing Core Realm) extracted sessfully, 9 million Energy Value deducted, remaining Energy Value: 12.6 billion...¡¿ ¡¾Ding, Immortal Dao Cultivation (Third Level of Qi Refining) extracted sessfully, 100 million Energy Value deducted, remaining Energy Value: 12.5 billion...¡¿ After choosing his rewards, Jiang Yifeng immediately felt changes in his body and Qi Sea! He could clearly sense the increase in his strength. A few secondster, the enhancement wasplete, and Jiang Yifeng felt an overwhelming sense of invincibility. But his rationality quickly suppressed it. Soon, the simtor''s upgrade prompt sounded. ¡¾Ding, detected that the host has met the conditions for upgrading the simtor. Would you like to spend 1 billion Energy Value to upgrade?¡¿ "Upgrade!" Jiang Yifeng responded immediately. No need to ask, he had been waiting for this. ¡¾Ding, simtor upgraded to version 3.0, 1 billion Energy Value deducted, remaining Energy Value: 11.5 billion...¡¿ ¡¾Simtor version 3.0: Green Talent extraction removed, Purple Talent extraction added.¡¿ ¡¾New feature: Host can choose an appropriate time to spend Energy Value for deep simtion; 10,000 Energy Value per hour.¡¿ (Note: Death in deep simtion will not affect the host in reality.) ¡¾Deep Simtion: A feature developed to enhance the host''s state of mind, allowing the host''s soul to enter a realistic simtion environment to experience the joys of cultivation andbat.¡¿ Jiang Yifeng looked at the upgraded simtor and nodded in satisfaction. Not bad, he could finally extract Purple Talents. As for the deep simtion feature. Jiang Yifeng thought it was great. It could help him improve his state of mind andbat skills in the simtion. Currently, he had cultivation levels but no state of mind, no mental cultivation method, and nobat skills. If an unexpected situation arose, could he fight? The answer was definitely no. Even if he did, he would be a weakling. Jiang Yifeng was aware of this. He hadn''t even exchanged for an Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method, so he didn''t know how to circte spiritual energy or fight. He had no intention of fighting in reality for now. But with the deep simtion feature, he could consider improving hisbat skills when his cultivation level became stronger. For now, he wouldn''t need it. In the simtions, the cultivators he encountered were all formidable. With his current cultivation level, encountering those cultivators would mean instant death. Deep simtion would only enhance his ability to die. Chapter 23: Purple Talent, Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root Jiang Yifeng had already understood the upgraded functions of the simtor, so he didn''t dwell on it further. He looked at the remaining two simtion attempts. Without hesitation, he silently chanted, "Start simtion!" ¡¾Consumed 1 simtion attempt, remaining attempts: 1¡¿ ¡¾Extracting Blue Talent costs 100,000 Energy Value, extracting Purple Talent costs 1,000,000 Energy Value. Please choose!¡¿ "Hmm?" Jiang Yifeng looked at the energy consumption and felt it was much less than he had anticipated. Previously, the energy value difference between extracting Green Talent and Blue Talent was a hundredfold. Yet, extracting Purple Talent was only ten times more than Blue Talent.This made Jiang Yifeng a bit puzzled and even worried if Purple Talent was not as powerful. ¡¾Ding, Green Talent and Blue Talent are worlds apart. Green Talent only affects ordinary people, while Blue Talent allows one to start cultivating and affects cultivators; hence therge energy consumption difference.¡¿ The simtor seemed to sense Jiang Yifeng''s thoughts and provided an exnation. Hearing this, Jiang Yifeng''s anxious heart calmed down. He softly muttered, "Extract Purple Talent." ¡¾Ding, 1,000,000 Energy Value deducted, extracting Purple Talent. Remaining Energy Value: 11.5 billion...¡¿ ¡¾Congrattions, you have obtained Purple Talent: Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root.¡¿ ¡¾Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root: A mutated top-tier true spiritual root with both thunder and fire attributes.¡¿ ¡¾Ding, detected that the host already has Five Elements Fake Spiritual Root. Recing talent...¡¿ ¡¾Recementplete. With the mutated Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root, you are now a small genius in the Immortal Dao.¡¿ "YES, hit the jackpot!" Jiang Yifeng excitedly pumped his fist. Looking at the Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root (Talent) he had drawn, his emotions surged. This spiritual root talent was exactly what he had been yearning for. The previous Five Elements Fake Spiritual Root was truly garbage, no wonder the simtor marked it as the worst spiritual root. In his previous simtions, his Immortal Dao cultivation progress was excruciatingly slow. But now, just from the description, this Thunder-Fire Mutated True Spiritual Root was vastly superior. The simtor even marked him as a small genius in the Immortal Dao with this root, making Jiang Yifeng quite eager. He couldn''t wait to see the effects of this talent on the simtor. ¡¾9th simtion begins.¡¿ ¡¾You were dazed for a moment, realizing you had entered the simtion state.¡¿ ¡¾On the first day, you left Green Hills City under the cover of darkness.¡¿ ¡¾On the third day, you arrived at the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple in the Evergreen Mountain Range.¡¿ ¡¾Upon arrival, you cleared the ruins, buried all the remains, and built exquisite tombstones.¡¿ ¡¾You also obtained the Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method, Heavenly Profound Art.¡¿ ¡¾After obtaining the Heavenly Profound Art, you couldn''t wait to start cultivating, eager to see the effects of your new spiritual root talent.¡¿ ¡¾You took out a Spirit Stone from your storage ring, activated the mental cultivation method, and began cultivating.¡¿ ¡¾In just a moment, youpleted one cycle of the technique, absorbing the spiritual energy from the Spirit Stone into your Qi Sea.¡¿ ¡¾In less than half an hour, the Spirit Stone turned to dust.¡¿ ¡¾You stared at the remaining powder in your hand, stunned!¡¿ ¡¾You remembered that with the Five Elements Fake Spiritual Root, it took you two whole months to absorb a single Spirit Stone.¡¿ ¡¾Now, with the Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root, it only took half an hour to absorb one.¡¿ ¡¾In terms of efficiency, the difference was more than a thousandfold.¡¿ ¡¾This made you realize that cultivation indeed depends on talent.¡¿ ¡¾Even those protagonists in past-life novels who could rise from being nobodies, how many were truly nobodies?¡¿ ¡¾They were just temporarily down on their luck.¡¿ ¡¾With an excellent cultivation spiritual root, you naturally wouldn''t waste it. You spent every day diligently cultivating.¡¿ ¡¾A month passed in the blink of an eye. Besides practicing an unnamed technique once a day, you spent most of your time cultivating the Immortal Dao.¡¿ ¡¾In a month, you skyrocketed from the third level of Qi Refining to Perfect Qi Refining.¡¿ ¡¾Keep in mind, this was with your Qi Sea expanded several times.¡¿ ¡¾If your Qi Sea hadn''t been expanded, it would have taken you less than ten days to go from the third level of Qi Refining to Perfect Qi Refining.¡¿ ¡¾Ten days to catch up to the decades of progress in your previous simtions.¡¿ ¡¾This speed was beyond your wildest dreams.¡¿ ¡¾In the second month, youpressed all the spiritual energy in your Qi Sea into liquid form.¡¿ ¡¾With good talent, Foundation Establishment was not a bottleneck for you. It took you just one month to break through and be a Foundation Establishment cultivator.¡¿ ¡¾You were puzzled that the dragon energy in your Qi Sea didn''t merge with the spiritual energy and couldn''t be controlled, remaining separate.¡¿ ¡¾However, since it didn''t hinder your breakthrough, you didn''t pay much attention to it.¡¿ ¡¾In the third month, you clearly felt that after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, progress became more difficult.¡¿ ¡¾In a month, you only broke through one minor realm, reaching the second level of Foundation Establishment, still some distance from the third level.¡¿ ¡¾This month, you also encountered a more troublesome issue.¡¿ ¡¾You ran out of Spirit Stones.¡¿ ¡¾With improved talent, your cultivation speed increased, but so did your resource consumption.¡¿ ¡¾In just three months, you consumed 1,800 Spirit Stones, leaving you with only 200.¡¿ ¡¾With no solution, you continued cultivating.¡¿ ¡¾Ten dayster, you exhausted your Spirit Stones, and your Immortal Dao cultivation just reached the third level of Foundation Establishment.¡¿ ¡¾Without Spirit Stones, you felt your cultivation progress slow down significantly.¡¿ ¡¾Nine more months passed, making it a year since the simtion started. Your Immortal Dao cultivation broke through one minor realm, reaching the fourth level of Foundation Establishment.¡¿ ¡¾This made you realize the importance of cultivation resources again.¡¿ ¡¾With enough Spirit Stones, breaking through a minor realm took only a month, but without resources, it took several times longer.¡¿ ¡¾In the second year, you felt the time needed for breakthroughs increasing. It took you a whole year to break through one minor realm, reaching the fifth level of Foundation Establishment.¡¿ ¡¾In the third year, you hid the Teleportation Jade te, storage ring, and even the Breath Concealing Talisman early on.¡¿ ¡¾Based on your previous simtion experience, you worried that keeping these items on you would prevent you from taking advantage of the white-robed woman.¡¿ ¡¾Two months after hiding these items, a white-robed woman appeared at the ruins.¡¿ ¡¾You felt a bit excited, thinking your Spirit Stone resources had finally arrived.¡¿ ¡¾But on the surface, you pretended to be indifferent, acting as if you hadn''t seen the white-robed woman.¡¿ ¡¾The white-robed woman nced at you, then her expression turned stern, and she disappeared from her spot, reappearing in front of you.¡¿ ¡¾Before you could react, she grabbed your neck.¡¿ ¡¾The sudden change caught you off guard.¡¿ ¡¾You couldn''t understand what went wrong in this simtion.¡¿ ¡¾In previous simtions, although the white-robed woman had checked your cultivation method, she had never acted directly.¡¿ ¡¾You couldn''t figure out what was happening now.¡¿ Chapter 24: Trapped in a unreal land, death loop At this moment, you no longer have the luxury of overthinking. The intense feeling of suffocation makes you instinctively want to resist. Unfortunately, even though your strength has increased significantly, under the oppressive aura of the white-robed woman, you can''t make any movements at all. Just as you are about to lose consciousness, the white-robed woman loosens her grip slightly. She asks who you are and why you are here. You quickly respond that you are a disciple of the Heavenly Profound Temple, here to guard the graves of your ancestors. Although you don''t understand why the white-robed woman''s actions in this simtion are different from before, you believe that iming to be a disciple of the Heavenly Profound Temple might still save you. After all, this ruin has no name, and the Heavenly Profound Temple is a name you guessed based on previous simtions where the white-robed woman rebuilt it. You think you can''t be wrong. Sure enough, when you say "disciple of the Heavenly Profound Temple," a flicker of change appears on the white-robed woman''s face, as if she is lost in some memory. Her grip on your neck loosens a bit more.You breathe a sigh of relief. But it seems you rxed too soon. In just a moment, the white-robed woman''s grip on your neck tightens again. At the same time, she coldly demands, "Who are you really? Why have you cultivated the Heavenly Profound Art, and why are you pretending to be a disciple of the Heavenly Profound Temple?" At this point, you arepletely bewildered. Why isn''t the white-robed woman following the script this time? You are very confused and don''t know how she determined that you are not a disciple of the Heavenly Profound Temple. In previous simtions, she never doubted it! You have no idea how to answer the white-robed woman''s questions. You can''t possibly say that you have a simtor and are pretending to be a disciple of the Heavenly Profound Temple to exploit her. Moreover, you think that even if you told the truth, she probably wouldn''t believe you. After all, a simtor is likely an unfamiliar concept to cultivators! So you can only grit your teeth and insist that you are indeed a disciple of the Heavenly Profound Temple. But the white-robed woman seems not to believe you, and her grip tightens even more. Gradually, you feel your head getting heavier, and your consciousness bing increasingly blurry. A single thought echoes in your mind: Am I going to die? In the real world, Jiang Yifeng is equally puzzled. He can''t figure out what''s going on. He thinks to himself: Is this simtion going to end like this? "Sigh, too bad I didn''t get any Spirit Stones!" Jiang Yifeng sighs. He doesn''t mind that this simtion is ending like this. After all, each simtion can only bring out two rewards. This time, the talent is a must-have; as for cultivation, it''s secondary. With such a strong spiritual root talent, his Immortal Dao cultivation can quickly improve next time. Originally, Jiang Yifeng nned to exploit the white-robed woman and then continuously hint to his simted self not to spend the rewards but to bring them out. This way, each subsequent simtion could yield more Spirit Stones for cultivation and greater improvement. Jiang Yifeng even considered using deep simtion to forcibly change his simted self if the hints didn''t work. But now it seems these ideas are not feasible. Shaking his head, Jiang Yifeng continues to watch the development in the simtor. You feel as if your soul is being torn apart, and soon, you die. Quickly, you find yourself seemingly alive again. The white-robed woman is still standing on the original ruins, looking at you from a distance. "What''s going on? Is this an illusion?" you wonder. Soon, you see the white-robed woman''s figure disappear from the ruins and reappear in front of you. Then she grabs your neck again. Things fall into a loop, with the same events happening over and over. Once, twice, three times, the same thing keeps happening. You die again and again, but the simtion does not end, making you realize you are trapped in an illusion. It seems the white-robed woman is using this method to force you to reveal why you are pretending to be a disciple of the Heavenly Profound Temple. But you really have no other motive; you just want to exploit her. You can''t reveal the simtor, and you genuinely don''t know what to say. So you stubbornly refuse to answer her questions, keeping your mouth shut. You think to yourself, "At worst, I''ll just die for real. It''s just a simtion; who am I afraid of!" You even keepining in your mind that if you hadn''t gained so many benefits from her in previous simtions, you would have started cursing her out long ago! You don''t know how much time has passed, but the scene returns to the white-robed woman looking at you from a distance. You look at her with a resigned expression, ready to be strangled to death again. After all, you''ve already died thousands of times in this illusion, and you''re somewhat numb to it. But this time, what you were waiting for doesn''t happen. You see the white-robed woman''s lips curl into a slight smile. Then she asks you how you escaped the massacre of the Heavenly Profound Temple. For a moment, your brain freezes, and you don''t answer her question. The white-robed woman thinks you are angry about her previous actions, so she starts to exin. She says you have an exceptional spiritual root for cultivation, and logically, you couldn''t have escaped the massacre of the Heavenly Profound Temple. Those who attacked the Heavenly Profound Temple wouldn''t let a talented disciple like you survive, which is why she was suspicious. Hearing the white-robed woman''s words, you understand. It turns out the changes in this simtion were triggered by your new talent. But you think the white-robed woman has a point. You think that if you were the one carrying out the massacre, you wouldn''t let a talented disciple from that sect survive either. If they cultivated sessfully and came back for revenge, wouldn''t that be leaving a hidden danger for yourself! Previously, you had a Five Elements Fake Spiritual Root, a poor talent that would only allow you to reach the Qi Refining period at best after a lifetime of cultivation. A disciple with such poor talent surviving the massacre seems more reasonable. Understanding is one thing, but you still don''t know how to answer her question about how you escaped the massacre. So you retort, "Didn''t they leave you alone too!" Normally, you wouldn''t dare say such a thing, but after being killed repeatedly in the illusion by the white-robed woman, you harbor some resentment and blurt it out. But as soon as you say it, you regret it because you realize that the white-robed woman might not belong to the Heavenly Profound Temple. Although in previous simtions, she mentioned that this was her senior brother''s sect, it doesn''t prove that she belongs to the Heavenly Profound Temple. After all, her senior brother might have left the sect and established his own. Otherwise, how could those who destroyed the Heavenly Profound Temple allow such a powerful figure like the white-robed woman to remain free? Moreover, the white-robed woman only came to check on the Heavenly Profound Temple after learning it was destroyed, which doesn''t align with being a disciple of the sect. Sure enough, after your retort, the white-robed woman''s gaze once again fills with suspicion. Chapter 25: Deep simulation, disguise identity exposed! [Seeing the situation, you silently curse in your heart, "This is bad!"] [Your brain is working at lightning speed, trying toe up with a way to make up for the mistake you just made.] [You nervously look at the white-robed woman in front of you and notice that her expression is bing increasingly off.] [At that moment, you suddenly recall those tragic romance novels from your past life, where the junior sister often secretly loves the senior brother.] [So, you grit your teeth and muster the courage to say, "Actually... I''ve seen many paintings in Master''s room, and the person in the paintings is you."] [Then, you gather more courage and continue, "You must be Master''s wife, right? Why did you only show up now after Master has been in trouble for so long? Why didn''t you think of avenging him?"] [As soon as you finish speaking, your heart starts to race.] [After all, such a risky move to change the topic and shift the me could easily backfire, and you worry that she might kill you in a fit of rage.] [Right now, you''re taking a gamble, hoping for some luck.][If this white-robed woman really has feelings for her senior brother, you think there''s a good chance she''ll be misled by your words.] [But whether she truly has special feelings for her senior brother, you have no idea.] [Anyway, you''re choosing to gamble now, and maybe you''ll get it right.] [If you get it wrong, at worst, this simtion will end here.] [After you finish speaking, the white-robed woman shows a hint of helplessness on her face, as if she''s lost in some memories.] [You feel that you might have gambled correctly.] [Because the white-robed woman doesn''t trouble you anymore and doesn''t ask you any more questions.] [In the following days, the white-robed woman continues to stay here.] [After the previous illusion incident, you know that the white-robed woman is not someone to be trifled with, so you don''t dare to approach her casually.] [But the white-robed womanes over instead, telling you that the previous illusion incident was a misunderstanding and hopes you won''t mind.] [She says she''ll stay here for a few days, and if you have any questions, you can ask her anytime.] [After saying that, she once again sits cross-legged on the cleared ruins, seemingly wanting to apany her deceased senior brother.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng sees this and feels thoughtful. This white-robed woman clearly knows a lot, and now she says you can ask her questions anytime. The previous simtion didn''t say that. Jiang Yifeng thinks this might be rted to his improved talent and what he said about her rtionship with her senior brother. But regardless, it doesn''t matter. He knows this is a rare opportunity, and he thinks it''s time to use the deep simtion. Jiang Yifeng quickly organizes the questions in his mind. Then he silently says, "Start deep simtion for 3 days." [Ding, deep simtion activated, duration 72 hours, energy value deducted 720,000, remaining energy value 1.15 billion...] [Reminder: Once deep simtion starts, you can exit anytime, but the deducted energy value will not be refunded.] As soon as the simtor''s words fall, Jiang Yifeng feels the environment around him suddenly change. Just a moment ago, he was in a luxurious and bright bedroom, but now he''s in a simple wooden hut. Jiang Yifeng realizes that he has entered the deep simtion. Filled with curiosity, he carefully observes the surroundings and finds that the wooden hut is surrounded by towering trees. Not far away, there''s a cemetery and the cleared ruins. Jiang Yifeng takes a deep breath and steps out of the wooden hut. As soon as he steps out, he sees the beautiful woman in a white dress standing on the ruins. Her skin is as white and delicate as snow, her face is stunningly beautiful, and she looks very young, like a girl in herte teens. But Jiang Yifeng knows that her actual age is far from that. Jiang Yifeng sighs inwardly, "This must be the legendary immortal who can retain her youthful appearance forever!" He steadies himself and walks towards the white-robed woman, softly calling out, "Auntie, I have some questions I''d like to ask you." Hearing his voice, the white-robed woman smiles slightly. "You''re not a disciple of my senior brother, so you don''t need to call me Auntie. You can just call me Bai Ruoxue or Senior Bai." Bai Ruoxue''s words leave Jiang Yifeng momentarily stunned, and he feels a sense of unease. What''s going on? He clearly managed to deceive her in the previous simtion! What''s happening now? Seeing your stunned expression, Bai Ruoxue continues to smile and speak. "Did you really think your little trick could fool me?" "I don''t care who you are, as long as you''re not from the Immortal Arrival Sect!" "And based on your previous behavior, it''s clear you''re not." Jiang Yifeng scratches his head awkwardly. But what is this Immortal Arrival Sect! His mind is racing with thoughts, which eventually condense into a single sentence. "I''m sorry, Senior Bai!" Bai Ruoxue waves her hand dismissively. "Don''t be. I used an illusion on you before, and you didn''t hold a grudge." Hearing this, Jiang Yifeng feels speechless. He thinks: Come on,dy, I was in a simtion! Even so, do you think I''d forget? Hmph, if I were stronger than you, I would''ve hit you already; besides, if it weren''t for the benefits I could get from you, I would''ve cursed you out long ago! However, despite the turmoil in his heart, Jiang Yifeng tries his best to remain calm on the surface. He doesn''t want her to notice his true thoughts. So, he quicklyposes himself and asks calmly. "Senior Bai, you know I''m not a disciple of the Heavenly Profound Temple, yet you''re still willing to answer my questions. May I know why?" This question had juste to his mind and didn''t hold much practical significance for Jiang Yifeng. But he couldn''t help but want to understand. After all, in previous simtions, he had sessfully deceived Bai Ruoxue into thinking he was a disciple of the Heavenly Profound Temple, but she didn''t allow him to ask questions then. Now that she knows he''s not a disciple, her attitude has changed, which piques Jiang Yifeng''s curiosity. Bai Ruoxue smiles slightly and softly says to Jiang Yifeng. "Because I already know the questions you want to ask." She pauses, then continues. "I guess you want to know why cultivating the Immortal Dao here leads to being hunted down, or why there are so few cultivators here, or even how to escape this ce, right?" Hearing this, Jiang Yifeng feels a bit puzzled. How does she know what he''s thinking? However, Bai Ruoxue doesn''t stop there. She smiles gently and continues in a soft voice. "If you were my senior brother''s disciple, out of concern for your safety, I might only advise you to hide your strength, rather than answer your questions." Her tone turns cold, "But now that you''re not, your life and death have nothing to do with me." At this point, Bai Ruoxue nces at Jiang Yifeng with interest, a hint of a smile on her lips. "If those are indeed your questions, by telling you, I''d be creating another enemy for those who displease me. That would be quite amusing!" Finally, she smiles slightly and asks Jiang Yifeng, "So, now that you understand my thoughts, do you still insist on asking?" After hearing Bai Ruoxue''s words, Jiang Yifeng ispletely stunned. Chapter 26: Sealed land, immortal’s killing game! Jiang Yifeng''s gaze became deep and solemn, as if he had fallen into endless contemtion. He pondered silently, "How did she know the questions I wanted to ask?" Time ticked by, and Jiang Yifeng remained silent, lost in thought. Various possibilities swirled in his mind. Gradually, a thought shed through his mind. In this ce, there had always been someone deliberately hunting down local cultivators. Even those seeking the Immortal Dao couldn''t escape their fate. To survive and continue cultivating in such a harsh environment, one must have faced such pursuits. Even if not directly hunted, they would surely be aware of the ongoing persecution of local cultivators. Otherwise, surviving here would be nothing but a fool''s dream. With this realization, Jiang Yifeng finally understood.The questions he wanted to ask were precisely the ones every cultivator in thisnd desperately sought answers to. No wonder Bai Ruoxue could read his mind so easily. Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but sigh deeply in his heart, "It truly confirms the old saying, ''Ginger gets spicier with age!''" Bai Ruoxue, worthy of being a great cultivator, had seen through everything long ago. At the same time, Jiang Yifeng understood her intentions. Bai Ruoxue likely harbored resentment towards those who hunted local cultivators. Moreover, once he knew the truth, he would undoubtedly seek a path to redemption, inevitably shing with those people. However, none of this mattered. Even without knowing the reasons, he couldn''t escape their pursuit. Previous simtions had made Jiang Yifeng deeply aware: whether it was personal misfortune or family upheaval, it all stemmed from the prohibition of cultivation in this ce. Only by understanding the root cause could he better use the simtor to solve the problems. Without hesitation, Jiang Yifeng decisively spoke. "Senior Bai, may I ask why cultivation is forbidden here? And why are cultivators hunted once they start cultivating? More importantly, how can one escape this sealednd?" Bai Ruoxue wasn''t surprised by Jiang Yifeng''s questions. She slowly began to speak. "This ce was originally called the Southern Regions, one of the four major regions of the Nine Mystic Realm." "For some unknown reason, it angered the beings from the heavens, turning this ce into and of divine punishment. Every few decades, Heavenly Thunder descends to annihte cultivators." "My senior brother''s sect was actually wiped out by Heavenly Thunder, so you understand why I could see through that you''re not a disciple of the Heavenly Profound Temple, right?" Saying this, Bai Ruoxue smiled at Jiang Yifeng. Jiang Yifeng nodded in understanding. No wonder she saw through it. He had wondered why those who destroyed the Heavenly Profound Temple didn''t trouble Bai Ruoxue or let her seek revenge. But there was no enemy; it was caused by Heavenly Thunder. Or rather, the enemies weren''t from this realm but were celestial beings from above. How could one seek revenge against them? Of course, that wasn''t important. From Bai Ruoxue''s words, Jiang Yifeng had already gleaned a lot of useful information. That was, above this world, there was another world, a world above the nine heavens. Those Bai Ruoxue referred to as heavenly beings might be those who had ascended to immortality. As Jiang Yifeng pondered, Bai Ruoxue continued speaking. "After this ce became and of divine punishment, it naturally became uninhabitable, and everyone wanted to leave." "But people discovered that the entire perimeter of the Southern Regions was inscribed with a massive formation, making it impossible to leave, turning it into a cage." "Over time, it gradually became known as the sealednd." "However, the world is never short of geniuses. After millions of years, a brilliant individual emerged, who withstood the Heavenly Thunder and forcibly broke through the formation, escaping." "This massive formation developed cracks, and subsequently, many experts managed to escape through it." "But the good times didn''tst long. Shortly after, powerful fierce beasts appeared at the cracks of the formation, guarding the four directions!" "At the same time, arge organization called the Immortal Arrival Sect emerged, permanently stationed in this sealednd!" "They are not affected by the Heavenly Thunder here and can freely enter and exit the sealednd. They specifically hunt down those who cultivate and seek immortality here." "In the outside world, these people are also known as Immortal ves!" At this point, Bai Ruoxue stopped and looked at Jiang Yifeng, saying. "Now you know who is hunting the cultivators in the sealednd? Are you afraid? Do you dare to resist?" Jiang Yifeng was still digesting Bai Ruoxue''s previous words when he was suddenly asked this question. He felt a bit nervous. Resist? Dare to resist? From her words, the Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect were just a bunch ofckeys. The real threat to the Southern Regions'' cultivators was the celestial beings from above! But thinking of his simtor, Jiang Yifeng felt no fear. Quickly, he looked up at the sky andughed heartily. "Why wouldn''t I dare!" Seeing Jiang Yifeng look up at the sky, Bai Ruoxue covered her face andughed. "Such ambition, but did you misunderstand? I was asking if you dare to resist those Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect." Jiang Yifeng couldn''t exin, so he asked back. "Since the Immortal Arrival Sect is hunting cultivators, how can you be sure your senior brother died from Heavenly Thunder and not by their hands?" Bai Ruoxue''s face showed a hint of disdain. "That group? They aren''t qualified to kill my senior brother!" Hearing Bai Ruoxue''s words, Jiang Yifeng felt reassured. It seemed those from the Immortal Arrival Sect weren''t the strongest. The real challenge was the Heavenly Thunder. Bai Ruoxue seemed to understand his thoughts and continued. "The people from the Immortal Arrival Sect are not to be feared. The most dangerous thing in the Southern Regions is indeed the Heavenly Thunder, followed by the fierce beasts guarding the four directions!" Her words reminded him of the giant dragon he saw in a previous simtion. Could it be one of the fierce beasts? As for the Heavenly Thunder, Jiang Yifeng had yet to experience it. Without further spection, Jiang Yifeng shifted the topic and asked Bai Ruoxue again. "Senior Bai, since this is a sealednd with fierce beasts guarding it, how did you get in? And how can one get out? Can I sneak out?" Hearing this, Bai Ruoxue chuckled, seemingly amused by Jiang Yifeng, and teased. "Oh, you were so full of ambition just now, shouting ''Why wouldn''t I dare,'' and now you want to sneak out?" Jiang Yifeng felt a bit embarrassed, but it was hard to exin. Could he say he wanted to sneak out in a future simtion to cultivate and thene back to overturn everything? Seeing Jiang Yifeng remain silent, Bai Ruoxue seemed to lose interest and directly said. "To leave, there are four ces: the Desert of Death, the Endless Sea, the Valley of mes, and the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords. But each ce is guarded by fierce beasts." "I came in through the Endless Sea. That fierce beast is greedy, and I bribed it with a vast amount of resources. But I can only stay here for a few days; I can''t take anyone out!" "If you want to leave, other than breaking through by force, I can''t think of another way." After Bai Ruoxue finished speaking, the atmosphere turned cold. Jiang Yifeng didn''t expect the final oue to be like this. Although Bai Ruoxue had said a lot, giving him much information. But thinking carefully, it seemed none of it was useful to him. In the end, it still depended on strength to break through. Seeing Jiang Yifeng''s disappointed look, Bai Ruoxue patted his shoulder and said. "Keep it up. I hope you can bring some excitement to those Immortal ves!" After saying that, she left a storage ring for Jiang Yifeng and then walked aside, staring at the ruins in a daze. Chapter 27: Discovered a simulator bug Jiang Yifeng quicklyposed himself and returned to the wooden hut with the storage ring. Although he knew that Bai Ruoxue had given him these resources to create some trouble for the Immortal ves, he still managed to benefit from it. Jiang Yifeng opened the storage ring, and his mood instantly brightened. There was a pile of spirit stones, and he counted them¡ªthere were a full twenty thousand. However, this time, there was no teleportation array disk or breath concealing talisman. People are indeed fickle. Once they knew he wasn''t a disciple of the Heavenly Profound Temple, they didn''t give him any life-saving items. It was clear they saw him as dispensable entertainment. Jiang Yifeng nced at Bai Ruoxue in the distance and chuckled to himself, "Heh, you see me as a ything? Little do you know, I see you as an ATM!" Looking at the storage ring in his hand, Jiang Yifeng thought that since he had gotten the answers to his questions and the resources he wanted, it was time to end it.He silently recited, "End deep simtion!" In an instant, the scene before him changed, and he found himself back in his bedroom at the Jiang Family Mansion. Of course, in reality, he had never left; it was just his consciousness that felt like it had gone and returned. Rubbing his head, Jiang Yifeng didn''t rush to summarize the gains from this deep simtion but instead looked at the simtor. [You received arge number of spirit stones from Bai Ruoxue, but you didn''t use them for cultivation; you kept them well-preserved.] [Three days passed in a sh, and Bai Ruoxue left. Before she left, she gave you a half-smiling "Good luck!"] [Shortly after Bai Ruoxue left, you also departed from that ce.] [However, this time, you didn''t head straight to the Desert of Death.] [You remembered Bai Ruoxue mentioning the Endless Sea, the Valley of mes, and the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords¡ªces you had never heard of.] [You felt that the rewards for this simtion''s objectives had been achieved, so you didn''t need to cultivate or be overly cautious. You decided to search for those ces first.] [In the fourth year, you bought many maps but couldn''t find those locations.] [You discovered that most of the maps you bought only covered the Great Abyssal Kingdom, the Liang Kingdom, and a few neighboring countries.] [The only ce Bai Ruoxue mentioned that was recorded on the maps was the Desert of Death, but it was just marked as a desert without a specific name!] [This made you realize that the Southern Regions might be muchrger than you had imagined.] [Mortals can only travel so far in their lifetime, so buying maps to find locations wasn''t realistic.] [As for asking around, you had no intention of doing so. You knew that if you dared to inquire, you''d definitely be watched by those Immortal ves Bai Ruoxue mentioned.] [In the fifth year, you stopped buying maps and left the Great Abyssal Kingdom, heading towards the Liang Kingdom.] [In the sixth year, you left the Liang Kingdom and arrived in thepletely unfamiliar Min Kingdom.] [In the tenth year, you traveled further and further, learning about many countries and tribes you had never known before.] [It seemed you had given up on finding those locations and started a true journey.] [In the eighteenth year, you began to move away from inhabited areas.] [You found that with your pace, it took one or two months to asionally encounter a primitive tribe!] [In the twenty-third year, you seemed to reach the end of the road and saw a vast valley that looked like mes.] [The words "Valley of mes" immediately appeared in your mind.] [You were overjoyed and thought to yourself, "Finally found it, my persistence paid off."] [You carefully wrote down a note: "From the Liang Kingdom, head east to the end, and you''ll find the Valley of mes."] [After writing it once, you didn''t stop but continued to write it over a hundred times!] [After finishing, you still felt it wasn''t reliable enough, so you muttered it dozens of times.] [After doing all this, you thought, "Now the outside me should know, right?"] [Still feeling uncertain, you set a goal for yourself to say and write this sentence at least ten times a day.] Jiang Yifeng outside the simtor couldn''t help butugh. Even in the simtor, he was still so clever. If the simted version of himself hadn''t written it down and given hints, the simtor might have glossed over this information. Although he didn''t know if having the approximate coordinates of the Valley of mes would be useful, it mighte in handy someday! Jiang Yifeng thought to himself, "Is this considered finding a bug in the simtor?" He gave himself a thumbs-up and continued to look at the simtor. [After finding the location of the Valley of mes, you had no intention of entering it but started to head back.] [On the way back, you moved even more urgently.] [In the thirty-seventh year, you returned to the Great Abyssal Kingdom.] [During this time, nothing significant happened. You hid well and didn''t encounter any Immortal ves.] [Of course, you understood that the breath concealing talisman Bai Ruoxue had given you yed a significant role.] [In the thirty-eighth year, you entered the Desert of Death.] [In the forty-second year, you settled in an oasis in the Desert of Death, using the map you had.] [You believed this location was where you had stayed during yourst simtion.] [In the forty-third year, you hid early, waiting for the Demonic Dragon to emerge.] [Not long into the year, you felt the desert shaking.] [You knew the Demonic Dragon was about to be born.] [You kept a close eye on the sky and saw a figure in a green robe battling the Demonic Dragon in the distance.] [You knew it was your father, Jiang Fushan, but you had no intention of approaching or waiting in ce.] [Instead, you rushed towards the Demonic Dragon''sir.] [Your improved strength increased your speed significantly.] [Covering thousands of miles, you reached their in just two or three hours.] [Once inside their, you began searching everywhere.] [You even started chiseling at the golden rock walls, hoping to find something hidden.] [Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and their was already unrecognizable, full of holes from your chiseling.] [As you chiseled a new section of the rock wall, you suddenly heard a "thunk."] ["Hollow," you eximed in surprise and intensified your chiseling.] [After several hours, you finally made a head-sized hole in the rock wall.] [Through the hole, you saw a dragon egg ced in the enclosed space.] [Seeing this, you were overjoyed and put more effort into chiseling.] [As you chiseled, you muttered to yourself, "I wonder if taking the dragon egg can be considered a reward from the simtor!"] [If it could, you thought spirit stones could take a backseat.] [But before you could put your n into action, you saw a yellowish-brown Demonic Dragon descending from the sky. It had returned to itsir.] [The Demonic Dragon, perhaps sensing your threat to the dragon egg, immediately breathed dragon mes at you!] [You quickly activated the teleportation jade te to escape.] [In an instant, you disappeared from the spot and reappeared in the desert.] Chapter 28: New Talent, Extreme One-for-One "You''ve underestimated the power of the Demonic Dragon. As soon as you teleported out, it was already in pursuit." "At this moment, your cultivation level had increased significantly, and the aftereffects of teleportation were minimal. You quickly activated the Teleportation Jade te for the second time, and in the blink of an eye, you disappeared again." "However, this did not allow you to escape. Despite teleporting twice in a row, the Demonic Dragon still managed to catch up in an instant." "Soon, after using up three teleportations, you despairingly watched as the Demonic Dragon caught up to you once more." "In the end, you shouted, ''Southwest corner.''" "You died at the age of 63." "This simtion has ended." "You can choose two rewards from this simtion: Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root (Talent), Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method), Cultivation Level (Foundation Establishment Stage Five), Spirit Stones (20,000 pieces), Valley of mes (Route Map)." "Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root (Talent): Price 10 million Energy Value.""Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method): Price 100 million Energy Value." "Cultivation Level (Foundation Establishment Stage Five): Price 5 million Energy Value." "Spirit Stones (20,000 pieces): Price 200 million Energy Value." "Valley of mes (Route Map): Price 10 million Energy Value; a route map from the Great Abyssal Kingdom to the Valley of mes." The simtion finally ended. Jiang Yifeng reflected on the simtion. He felt he had gained a lot. This time, he had obtained a lot of secret information from Bai Ruoxue. He thought that the shadowy figures who used palms, swords, and even the shadowy vendor who appeared in a previous simtion, were all likely the Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect that Bai Ruoxue had mentioned. Jiang Yifeng carefully recalled that they all wore ck clothes and killed cultivators or seekers of immortality. He had already suspected they belonged to the same organization, but now he was more certain. Moreover, in thetter part of this simtion, he discovered a bug in the simtor. Without needing a reward, he had learned the approximate location of the Valley of mes. This made Jiang Yifeng genuinely proud of his simted self. Well done! And thest shout of "Southwest corner" at the end of the simtion, Jiang Yifeng thought, should be a reminder to himself that the secret chamber hiding the dragon egg was in the southwest corner of the dragon''s nest. However, Jiang Yifeng also discovered a fatal w in the Teleportation Jade te, which he had previously considered a life-saving artifact. Against an overwhelmingly powerful enemy, it waspletely ineffective. The Teleportation Jade te could only teleport a thousand miles away, a distance that a creature of the Demonic Dragon''s level could cover in an instant. Jiang Yifeng sighed and thought to himself, "It seems I can''t rely on the Teleportation Jade te as a life-saving item anymore." This thing was probably given to him by Bai Ruoxue to escape from ordinary Immortal ves. Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng wondered if he could match the speed of the Teleportation Jade te, would that mean he had the strength to rival ordinary Immortal ves? The more he thought about it, the more he felt this was the case. Since Bai Ruoxue had given him the Teleportation Jade te for protection, it must be able to escape from ordinary Immortal ves. So, the speed of ordinary Immortal ves must be unable to catch up with the Teleportation Jade te. Therefore, if he could reach a thousand miles away in an instant, he could confront the Immortal ves head-on. With this thought, Jiang Yifeng felt more confident. Although he was still far from this goal, at least he now knew the general strength of his enemies. He wouldn''t bepletely in the dark like before. Finally, Jiang Yifeng looked at the simtion rewards. He had already decided on the rewards at the beginning of the simtion. However, he couldn''t understand the pricing of the simtor''s rewards. He felt that the most powerful reward should be the talent, but it wasn''t very expensive, probably because it was included with the simtor. On the other hand, the map, which seemed to have no value, was priced the same as an excellent spiritual root. As for the Spirit Stones, Jiang Yifeng used to think that 1,000 Spirit Stones couldst for decades when his talent was poor, and they weren''t expensive. But now, with his improved talent, 1,000 Spirit Stones could onlyst a few months. Even 20,000 Spirit Stones could only support him for about three years. Looking at it now, it was practically robbery. But even so, they were essential for rapid cultivation, so he had to exchange for them. Jiang Yifeng softly chanted. "I choose Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root (Talent) and Spirit Stones (20,000 pieces)." "Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root (Talent), deducting 10 million Energy Value, remaining Energy Value 11.5 billion..." "Ding, the host has obtained Spirit Stones (20,000 pieces), deducting 200 million Energy Value, remaining Energy Value 11.3 billion..." Jiang Yifeng didn''t feel anything special about not choosing to enhance his cultivation level this time. Seeing the 20,000 Spirit Stones in his storage ring, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but smile. Although they were expensive, he could use them without any loss in the simtion, so he definitely wouldn''t lose out. After resting for a moment, Jiang Yifeng looked at the simtor again. He still had one simtion left! There didn''t seem to be any need to save it now. Since that was the case, let''s continue the simtion! Jiang Yifeng softly chanted. "Start simtion." "Consuming one simtion attempt, remaining attempts 0." "Drawing Blue Talent costs 1 million Energy Value, drawing Purple Talent costs 10 million Energy Value, please choose!" "Draw Purple Talent." "Ding, deducting 10 million Energy Value, drawing Purple Talent, remaining Energy Value 11.3 billion." "Congrattions, you have obtained Purple Talent: Extreme One-for-One." "Extreme One-for-One: Your death will not be in vain; the one who kills you will die with you." Seeing this talent, Jiang Yifeng thought of the previous Blue Talent, Human Bomb. That talent caused his body to explode upon death, creating trouble for his killer. He remembered that in that simtion, after his death, it seemed to have turned the enemy''s skin permanently ck. Jiang Yifeng felt that this "Extreme One-for-One" was probably an upgraded version of that talent. If he died, his killer would also die. This talent, Jiang Yifeng thought, might actually be useful in reality. If he encountered an unbeatable enemy, he could sacrifice himself to protect his loved ones. But in the simtion, this talent seemed a bit redundant. In the end, Jiang Yifeng shook his head. It was still a useless talent. With the simtor, he could always survive until he became invincible, so he wouldn''t need this. He decided to focus on the simtor''s development. "The 10th simtion begins." "You realize you have entered the simtion." "This time, your n is to focus on improving your Immortal Dao cultivation." "On the first day, you left Green Hills City." "On the third day, you arrived at the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple in the Evergreen Mountain Range." "On the fourth day, you cleaned up the ruins, buried the bones, and obtained the Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method, Heavenly Profound Art." "In the following days, you began to cultivate diligently." "After a month, you consumed 600 Spirit Stones and reached Perfect Qi Refining." "Three monthster, you sessfully established your foundation, but the dragon energy in your Qi Sea still hadn''t fused." "A year passed, you consumed over 7,000 Spirit Stones, and your Immortal Dao cultivation reached Foundation Establishment Stage Eight." "This was far faster than your previous simtion''s cultivation speed, making you realize the importance of resources once again." "By mid-second year, your Immortal Dao cultivation had reached Perfect Foundation Establishment." "After reaching Perfect Foundation Establishment, you needed topress the liquid spiritual energy in your Qi Sea again to form a Golden Core in the center of your Qi Sea." "After that, you would absorb spiritual energy to build a bridge between heaven and earth, connecting the Golden Core directly with your meridians to break through to the Core Formation stage." "This process was quite lengthy, even with your improved talent, it still required a lot of time." Chapter 29: Tenth Grade Golden Core, one grade one heaven [In the third year, Bai Ruoxue arrived.] [This time, you didn''t disguise yourself as a disciple of the Heavenly Profound Temple.] [Instead, you directly exined that you identally obtained a Mental Cultivation Method here and, out of gratitude, buried the bones found in this ce.] [This was a decision you made after reflecting on the previous simtion.] [After all, you knew that pretending to be a disciple of the Heavenly Profound Temple might gain Bai Ruoxue''s favor, but with your current talent, it would be too easy to be exposed.] [It was better toy your cards on the table and avoid the endless cycle of death in an illusion likest time.] [Upon hearing your words, Bai Ruoxue indeed did not act immediately. However, she still conducted a series of tests on you. Only after confirming that you were not an Immortal ve did she let you go!] [During her inspection, Bai Ruoxue discovered that you were in the process of Core Formation.] [After confirming that you were not one of those Immortal ves who annoyed her, she advised you not to rush into breaking through the Core Formation stage.][You were puzzled and humbly asked for her guidance.] [Bai Ruoxue did not exin directly but instead asked you what the true purpose of the Golden Core was.] [Your understanding was that the Golden Core is the solidified form ofpressed spiritual energy, which allows the Qi Sea to have more space to store spiritual energy.] [Although you knew there might be other purposes since Bai Ruoxue asked, you still shared your understanding.] [As for other purposes, you were not well-versed, as your cultivation relied solely on a single Mental Cultivation Method, and your other knowledge was quitecking.] [Bai Ruoxue smiled and said that at the peak of Foundation Establishment, the Golden Core is indeed just the solidified form ofpressed spiritual energy, and apart from freeing up space in the Qi Sea, it has no other function.] [But she told you that once you use spiritual energy to connect the Golden Core with your meridians, building a bridge between heaven and earth, the Golden Core will have other functions after breaking through the Core Formation stage.] [At that point, all the spiritual energy you absorb will first pass through the Golden Core before reaching the Qi Sea.] [The Golden Core acts like a purifier of spiritual energy; the better the quality of the Golden Core, the higher the quality of the spiritual energy that ultimately reaches the Qi Sea, resulting in greaterbat power and a higher cultivation ceiling.] [Bai Ruoxue said that those who break through to the Core Formation stage without improving the quality of their Golden Core are the most inferior Core Formation cultivators.] [Hearing this, you felt incredibly fortunate that you had slowed down your cultivation in thest simtion and hadn''t broken through to Core Formation, or else you would have ruined your cultivation.] [So you quickly asked Bai Ruoxue how to improve the quality of the Golden Core.] [She smiled and told you that improving the quality of the Golden Core is simple: just continuously use spiritual energy to polish and refine the condensed Golden Core.] [Constant polishing will cause the Golden Core to develop patterns, with each additional pattern improving its quality by one grade.] [She told you that the quality of the Golden Core is divided into ten grades, each grade representing a higher level.] [True Chosen ones will spend a lot of time polishing their Golden Core to improve its quality.] [After listening to Bai Ruoxue''s words, you felt greatly enlightened and thanked her profusely.] [Afterward, Bai Ruoxue voluntarily told you why this ce is called the Sealed Land and about the Immortal ves.] [Although you already knew these things, you still listened attentively.] [With the experience from the previous simtion, you understood Bai Ruoxue''s intentions.] [Whether she was instructing you in cultivation or telling you secrets, she wanted to create some enemies for those Immortal ves.] [So you pretended to be angry and dered that you would fight those people to the death.] [Bai Ruoxue smiled slightly at your words and tossed you a storage ring, saying it was a bit of support from her, hoping you could give the Immortal ves some trouble!] [You took the storage ring, thinking to yourself that she was indeed a reliable cash cow, especially since you had run out of Spirit Stones.] [Returning to your cabin, you opened the storage ring and found that Bai Ruoxue had given you even more Spirit Stones this time¡ªfifty thousand pieces.] [Such arge number of Spirit Stones made you hesitate, wondering whether you should use them immediately to enhance your strength or save them to bring out of the simtor.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng also began to ponder. However, he was thinking about why the number of Spirit Stones Bai Ruoxue gave varied each time. Previously, when he pretended to be a disciple of the Heavenly Profound Temple, the amount of Spirit Stones given was understandable, as his talent was insufficient, and the Spirit Stones provided were enough for a lifetime of cultivation. So what was different betweenst time and this time? Jiang Yifeng thought deeply and concluded that there were two main differences: first, this time he admitted he wasn''t a disciple of the Heavenly Profound Temple, whereasst time he was exposed. Second, his cultivation level was different this time. In the end, Jiang Yifeng believed the main reason was the second point¡ªhis cultivation level was higher this time. After all, he already knew Bai Ruoxue''s purpose: she wanted to create some trouble for the Immortal ves. The stronger he was, the more trouble he could cause, so the more support she provided. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but smile. Since that was the case, he might as well cultivate directly. The more he improved his strength this time, the more he could benefit next time. So Jiang Yifeng kept suggesting to himself, "Use the Spirit Stones to cultivate!" This kind of psychological suggestion had been used in previous simtions. He knew that to some extent, it could influence his decisions within the simtion. While suggesting to himself, Jiang Yifeng continued to look at the simtor. [After much thought, you decided that hoarding resources like a hamster wasn''t a solution; you needed to improve your strength.] [You believed that with greater strength, you might obtain more resources.] [So you stopped hesitating and began cultivating immediately.] [Three dayster, Bai Ruoxue left.] [Shortly after Bai Ruoxue left, you also departed from this ce.] [In the same year, you condensed the liquid spiritual energy in your Qi Sea into a core, but remembering Bai Ruoxue''s advice, you didn''t rush to break through to the Golden Core stage and continued polishing.] [In the fourth year, a pattern appeared on your Golden Core, and you achieved a first-grade Golden Core.] [In the fifth year, two patterns appeared on your Golden Core, reaching the second grade.] [In the sixth year, after three years of cultivation and traveling, you finally arrived at the oasis in the Desert of Death.] [In the same year, three patterns appeared on your Golden Core, reaching the third grade.] [In the seventh year, since you no longer needed to travel, you devoted yourself entirely to cultivation.] [However, even so, after a year, you only managed to improve the grade of your Golden Core by one level, reaching the fourth grade.] [You knew that the difficulty of improvement increased as you progressed.] [In the eighth year, you achieved a fifth-grade Golden Core.] [In the tenth year, you found that your Spirit Stones were once again depleted, and at this time, your Golden Core had only reached the sixth grade.] [In the twentieth year, your Golden Core reached the seventh grade.] [This time, the improvement took you a full ten years.] [You knew there were multiple reasons for this: the difficulty increased as the grade of the Golden Core rose, and youcked resources.] [Even polishing the Golden Core required the constant use of spiritual energy; without resources, the speed naturally slowed down.] [In the fortieth year, it took you another twenty years to add one more pattern to your Golden Core, reaching the eighth grade.] [At this point, you wondered if you should break through directly.] Chapter 30: The first battle, it turns out, is no longer a Weakling "Now, it took you twenty years to improve the quality once. How much time will it take to improve again in the future?" "But when you think of what Bai Ruoxue said, that the higher the quality of the Golden Core, the higher the potential, you shake your head and start diligently refining the quality of your Golden Core." "In the forty-first year, you left the Desert of Death. This time, you decided not to target the dragon egg." "Every time you approached the dragon egg before, it would attract the Demonic Dragon. You knew that once you targeted the dragon egg, the simtion would likely end soon." "This time, you nned to live by hiding for a while longer, giving yourself more time to improve the quality of your Golden Core." "One day in the forty-third year, you had already reached the edge of the Desert of Death." "Suddenly, you felt a disturbanceing from the Desert of Death behind you." "You knew it was your father, Jiang Fushan, trying to break through this guarded ce again." "You shook your head, thinking he probably wouldn''t make it.""After all, in previous simtions, you always saw the Demonic Dragon return unscathed." "From this, you could infer that either your father, Jiang Fushan, had fled, or he had already died in battle." "Without thinking much, you continued walking out of the desert." "But soon, you noticed something was wrong. You saw people flying continuously in the sky." "Judging by their direction, it seemed they were all heading towards the Demonic Dragon''s location." "At this moment, your heart trembled. Why were there so many cultivators?" "Could they all be Immortal ves? Were they here to help the Demonic Dragon deal with your father, Jiang Fushan?" "Soon, you noticed another change in the desert. After those cultivators appeared, various Demonic Pythons, tens of meters long, emerged from the desert and started fighting them." "This gave you quite a scare. You had been in the desert for decades, encountering only some ordinary wild beasts." "Except for one time in a simtion, you had never encountered Demonic Pythons tens of meters long." "Now they were appearing in droves." "And judging by their ability to fly, it was a hallmark of Core Formation stage cultivation." "You secretly felt fortunate that you hadn''t encountered them before. Otherwise, at your current stage of refining the quality of your Golden Core, still at the peak of Foundation Establishment, you would have been almost certainly doomed." "Just the fact that these Demonic Pythons could fly meant that if you really fought them, you could only leap to attack, and your chances of winning would be almost nil." "You watched as those Demonic Pythons and cultivators continued their fierce battle." "What you saw made youpletely dismiss your doubts about these cultivators being Immortal ves." "After all, from previous simtions, you had learned that Immortal ves were ultimately on the same side as the Demonic Dragon guarding the desert." "And these Demonic Pythons lived around the Demonic Dragon''s territory and were now attacking the cultivators. You thought these Demonic Pythons must be under the Demonic Dragon''smand." "Based on this deduction, these cultivators should be local cultivators who usually stayed hidden." "But you were somewhat puzzled as to why they suddenlyunched such arge-scale assault on the Desert of Death." "Suddenly, you thought of your father, Jiang Fushan." "In previous simtions, he always fought the Demonic Dragon alone. These cultivators were likely in league with your father." "Only in this way would these cultivators know that someone could resist the Demonic Dragon, possibly leading to the current situation." "Of course, it was also possible that some people heard that someone could resist the Demonic Dragon and wanted to take advantage of the chaos to escape the area." "You felt that this was probably the case." "You looked at these people and finally just shook your head." "They didn''t know, but you had long known that your father, Jiang Fushan, was probably not a match for the Demonic Dragon." "After all, in previous simtions, the Demonic Dragon always returned to its nest unscathed." "Although the Demonic Dragon''s return might have been due to you targeting the dragon egg, if your father hadn''t been defeated, the Demonic Dragon probably wouldn''t have returned so easily!" "You had heard Bai Ruoxue say that these fierce beasts'' purpose was to guard the formation gaps surrounding the Southern Regions." "So it was impossible for it to let anyone pass." "You ignored the others and continued walking out of the Desert of Death." "You were already at the edge of the Desert of Death, and now it took you less than a day topletely walk out of the desert." "Seeing the green mountains and clear waters gradually appearing around you, you couldn''t help but take a few deep breaths, instantly feeling a bit more rxed." "After cultivating alone in the desert for decades, even in the oasis areas, the endless yellow sand still made you feel somewhat oppressed." "While you were still immersed in your thoughts, you heard footsteps behind you." "You turned around and saw a stranger in ck walking towards you." "He looked at you coldly, slowly drew the sword at his side, and murmured, ''Don''t me me, matters of cultivators are not for you to know.''" "In an instant, your heart tightened, realizing that this person must be one of those so-called Immortal ves." "You understood the meaning of his words. After all, from here, you could still vaguely see the fierce battles of those cultivators in the Desert of Death!" "You instinctively grasped the Teleportation Jade te at your waist, ready to teleport and escape." "But the shadowy figure''s sudden charge made you hesitate and abandon the idea of escaping." "You suddenly thought, maybe you had overestimated the strength of the Immortal ves before." "This shadowy figure wanted to attack you but didn''t choose to fly, instead opting to charge on foot, clearly indicating that he hadn''t reached the Core Formation stage." "This also made you realize why he didn''t attack those flying cultivators but instead targeted you, who seemed to have no cultivation due to the Breath Concealing Talisman." "Thinking about it, since this person wasn''t a Core Formation stage expert who could fly, maybe you could fight him with your current peak Foundation Establishment strength." "It would be a good opportunity to test your strength." "Even if you couldn''t win, you should have enough time to activate the Teleportation Jade te and escape." "The shadowy figure didn''t know your thoughts. He always considered you an ordinary person, thinking you were scared stiff." "As the shadowy figure got closer, you mobilized all the spiritual energy in your Qi Sea and then threw a fierce punch at him." "This was your first realbat, and you were inexperienced, pouring all the spiritual energy from your Qi Sea into this punch." "After throwing the punch, you immediately felt drained, bing somewhat weak." "You watched as your punch, carrying immense spiritual energy, swept straight towards the shadowy figure." Chapter 31: Heavenly Thunder? No, this is the nourishment for cultivation [The moment your spirit-infused punch made contact with the opponent, something unexpected happened.] [You saw the opponent instantly turn into a mist of blood, leaving no corpse behind.] [You stared at your own hands, momentarily stunned.] [It was then you realized that, without you even noticing, you were no longer the weakling you once were.] [Now, not all Immortal ves could render you powerless.] [After a brief moment of shock, you noticed that although the shadowy figure had turned into a mist of blood, his storage ring had fallen to the ground.] [You quickly went over and picked up the storage ring.] [You didn''t rush to check its contents but chose to leave the area immediately.] [You were worried there might be other Immortal ves around. Although you had killed one, you were still aware of your own limitations.][You didn''t think you could defeat all Immortal ves just because of this.] [After all, in many previous simtions, the Immortal ves you encountered could fly through the air, clearly the experts among them.] [This time, you had only encountered a small fry.] [Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and you arrived at a small border town called Youyue, where you settled down.] [It was only then that you opened the storage ring you had obtained from the shadowy Immortal ve.] [Upon opening it, you found numerous items, mostly pills, and over five thousand spirit stones.] [You decided to use the spirit stones directly for cultivation, but you didn''t recognize the pills and didn''t dare to take them recklessly.] [You didn''t pay much attention to this; after all, it was unexpected wealth. If you could use it, great; if not, so be it.] [In the days that followed, you resumed refining your Golden Core.] [With the buff from the spirit stones, you could clearly feel a significant increase in the efficiency of your refining.] [A year passed in the blink of an eye, and you ran out of spirit stones again, but the quality of your Golden Core did not improve.] [By the fiftieth year, your Golden Core was still only at the eighth grade.] [In fact, due to the eleration from those thousands of spirit stones, a faint line had appeared on your Golden Core three years ago.] [But no matter how hard you tried to refine it, it seemed unable to fully form, as if you had reached some kind of bottleneck.] [You looked at the half-fist-sized Golden Core within you, feeling that it didn''t seem too small to continue refining.] [Could it be that you needed other talents? Was your spiritual root talent insufficient?] [After thinking for a long time, you concluded that this might indeed be the reason.] [You thought that if anyone could reach the tenth grade Golden Core just by having arge enough Qi Sea, then the wealthy and powerful families would all have tenth grade Golden Cores.] [You could enhance the size of your Qi Sea with the Demonic Dragon Egg, so the disciples of those great sects and families could surely find simr items to enhance themselves.] [Thinking of this, you were almost certain that you had reached the bottleneck of your own talent.] [But you didn''t rush to break through to the Core Formation stage.] [No matter what, as someone with a simtor, you felt ufortable not striving to be the strongest.] [You didn''t believe that a mere bottleneck could stop you. If one year wasn''t enough, then ten years; if ten years wasn''t enough, then a hundred years.] [You decided to confront your Golden Core head-on, refusing to stop until you reached the tenth grade!] [On a certain day in the fifty-second year, while you were refining your Golden Core, you suddenly felt a sense of foreboding.] [You frowned slightly, looking around in confusion, but found nothing amiss.] [Just as you thought you were being paranoid, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck from the sky, hitting you directly.] [However, besides your Immortal Dao cultivation, you also had the ninth level of Condensing Core Realm in Martial Dao cultivation, and your physical body was quite strong. The lightning only severely injured you, not killing you outright.] [Just as you thought the lightning was a coincidence, you saw more lightning gathering in the sky, heading straight for you.] [With a loud "boom," you were struck by lightning again.] [This bolt was clearly more powerful than the previous one, leaving you covered in blood and on the brink of death.] [But it wasn''t over; the lightning in the sky continued to gather, seemingly intent on killing you.] [At this moment, you suddenly remembered Bai Ruoxue mentioning the Heavenly Punishment Thunder. She had said that every few decades, this sealed Southern Region would experience lightning strikes to kill local cultivators.] [You looked into the distance and saw that, indeed, besides your location, there were many ces far away where lightning was also striking.] [You knew you had no power to resist this Heavenly Thunder.] [You looked up at the sky and suddenly remembered the Extreme Body Tempering Method mentioned in the unnamed technique.] [You thought to yourself, this must be the ultimate test, right?] [Instead of retreating, you advanced towards the iing lightning,ughing loudly, "Let this Heavenly Thundere even fiercer!"] [With a "boom," the lightning exploded, and your body was covered in electric light, with no intact flesh left.] [But that wasn''t the end; arge amount of purple-blue electric arcs had already entered your Qi Sea, trying to destroy your Golden Core.] [Cracking sounds continuously came from your Golden Core.] [However, your Golden Core, which you had been refining for so long, was quite sturdy and held on for the time being.] [But before you could adjust, more lightning struck from the sky, one bolt after another.] [Gradually, you lost all sensation in your body.] [At this point, besides your body, your Qi Sea was also filled with lightning.] [Your Golden Core was riddled with holes, on the verge of copse.] [Your breath grew weaker and weaker, and you were on the brink of death.] [With another "boom," a bolt of lightning struck, and you felt it might be thest one you could withstand.] [At that moment, you felt primordial energy surging from your blood and flesh, as if it were angry and roaring.] [In an instant, all the primordial energy in your body went berserk, turning from pale cyan to crimson, starting to repair your body.] [Congrattions, your Martial Dao cultivation has broken through to the Qi Motion Realm.] [At this moment, you looked at the lightning stilling from the sky andughed; you had achieved Extreme Body Tempering.] [Heavenly Thunder? Nonsense, it was just nourishment for your cultivation.] [Due to your breakthrough in Martial Dao, your physical strength increased significantly, allowing you to withstand two more bolts of lightning.] [But your Golden Core in the Qi Sea could no longer hold on.] [With a few more electric arcs, your Golden Core in the Qi Sea shatteredpletely.] [What you didn''t know was that before your Golden Core shattered, nine lines were clearly visible on it.] [One of the lines even had purple-blue electric arcs shing on it.] [Two minutester, you couldn''t hold on any longer.] [You died at the age of 72.] [Extreme One-for-One (Talent) triggered.] [At the moment of your death, in the Immortal Realm above the Nine Heavens, an Immortal Lord assigned to control the lightning array suddenly choked and died from a burst of immortal energy.] [This simtion has ended.] Chapter 32: New Talent, Eye of Insight [For this simtion, you can choose two rewards: Extreme One-for-One (Talent), Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao Technique), Martial Dao Cultivation (First Level of Qi Motion Realm), Immortal Dao Cultivation (Perfect Foundation Establishment).] [Extreme One-for-One (Talent)]: Price 10 million Energy Value. [Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao Technique)]: Price 100 million Energy Value. [Martial Dao Cultivation (First Level of Qi Motion Realm)]: Price 10 million Energy Value. [Immortal Dao Cultivation (Perfect Foundation Establishment)]: Price 90 million Energy Value; (Note: Due to the refinement of a Nine-Grade Golden Core, the price has increased.) This simtionsted the longest so far. Jiang Yifeng felt he had gained a lot. Not only were his cultivation results abundant, but he also experienced his first battle in the simtor. This made him realize that not all Immortal ves were as strong as he had thought.The most surprising part of the entire simtion was the Heavenly Thunder at the end, which unexpectedly helped him break through in both Martial Dao and Immortal Dao. That wasn''t a terrifying Heavenly Thunder; it was clearly a cultivation resource. Of course, Jiang Yifeng was just joking in his mind. From the end of the simtion, he already knew that the Heavenly Thunder was actually caused by someone in the Immortal Realm operating a Heavenly Thunder Array. But these matters were too far removed from his current self to worry about! As for other things, Jiang Yifeng didn''t expect that there were far more local cultivators than he had imagined. All this information would be useful in his future simtions. Without further thought, Jiang Yifeng directly made his choice for this simtion''s rewards. "I choose Martial Dao Cultivation (First Level of Qi Motion Realm) and Immortal Dao Cultivation (Perfect Foundation Establishment)." [Ding, Martial Dao Cultivation (First Level of Qi Motion Realm) sessfully extracted, deducting 10 million Energy Value, remaining Energy Value 11.3 billion...] [Ding, Immortal Dao Cultivation (Perfect Foundation Establishment) sessfully extracted, deducting 90 million Energy Value, remaining Energy Value 11.2 billion...] As soon as the rewards were confirmed, Jiang Yifeng felt changes in his body. First, his blood and Primordial Energy, which had been rtively calm, seemed to be more violent and surged. He knew this was a sign of his Martial Dao advancing to the Qi Motion Realm. Once Martial Dao reaches the Qi Motion Realm, Primordial Energy undergoes a transformation, bing more vigorous and aggressive. Of course, this only happens during the advancement process. After the advancement isplete, the Primordial Energy will still hide within the flesh and blood, unless actively mobilized or in a life-threatening crisis, it will not show signs of agitation. Soon, the Martial Dao cultivation wasplete, and the improvement in Immortal Dao was even more noticeable. From the original third level of Qi Refining, he directly advanced to Perfect Foundation Establishment, and it was with a Nine-Grade Golden Core. This leap was not insignificant. Therefore,pared to previous simtions where the rewards werepleted in one or two seconds, this time it took a bit longer. After more than a minute, Jiang Yifeng finally fully epted the Immortal Dao cultivation. Looking at the Nine-Grade Golden Core with nine lines inside his body, he couldn''t help but smile. Jiang Yifeng was now eager to start the next simtion. He hoped to reach the Ten-Grade Golden Core soon. Unfortunately, he had used up all his simtion attempts. In the end, Jiang Yifeng could only hope that the week would pass quickly. Ever since he got the simtor, Jiang Yifeng even felt that listening to music at the Pleasure House wasn''t as appealing. He now preferred the joy of gains after a simtion. But that being said, he still had to continue visiting the Pleasure House, otherwise, waiting for a week for the next simtion would be too boring. A week passed quickly. Jiang Yifeng returned to his bedroom and silently chanted. "Start simtion." [Consume one simtion attempt, remaining attempts 0] [Extracting Blue Talent costs 1 million Energy Value, extracting Purple Talent costs 10 million Energy Value, please choose!] "Extract Purple Talent." [Ding, deducting 10 million Energy Value, extracting Purple Talent, remaining Energy Value 11.2 billion...] [Congrattions, you have obtained Purple Talent: Eye of Insight.] [Eye of Insight]: Your eyes can see some of the true information of all beings. (Note: "All beings" does not only refer to humans but also includes all other intelligent creatures.) "Great talent." Seeing this talent, Jiang Yifeng was delighted. Being able to see the true information of all beings meant that in the future, whether in simtions or reality, he could know in advance if he was in danger. Moreover, when facing enemies, he could clearly know if he could contend with them. Jiang Yifeng calcted in his mind that this talent must be taken out as a reward. So he continued to look at the simtor. [The 11th simtion begins.] [You realize you have entered the simtion.] [You think of the Eye of Insight (Talent) you just obtained and can''t wait to test it out.] [You walk out of the room and knock on Little Peach''s door.] [You nce at her and then turn to leave.] [Your action leaves Little Peach puzzled and confused.] [However, you just wanted to test the effect of the Eye of Insight (Talent).] [With that nce, you have already seen Little Peach''s true information, urately and in detail.] [You marvel at how useful the Eye of Insight is.] [But soon, you encounter a problem.] [As you wander around the Jiang Family Mansion, you find that every person you see has a string of information above their head, making you a bit dizzy.] [You think this talent shouldn''t be like this; there must be a way to control it at will.] [If you don''t want to observe certain people, shouldn''t the information not appear?] [The next day, after a day of testing, you finally confirm that your idea is correct.] [However, precise control is still somewhat difficult.] [You still inadvertently see a lot of other people''s personal information.] [You conclude that as long as you are curious about someone, you will unconsciously see their information.] [This situation is something you can fully ept.] [You feel that the Eye of Insight talent seems to be a kind of mental power.] [You think that if you can control your curiosity one day, you might be able to use this talent as you wish.] [On the third day, you leave the Jiang Family Mansion and walk to the streets of Green Hills City, feeling a bit uneasy as you look at the crowd.] [Before having the Eye of Insight, you didn''t know, but now you see that the seemingly ordinary Green Hills City actually hides several Immortal ves.] [Some are disguised as passersby, some as vendors, and even some as beggars.] [Among them are some familiar faces.] [However, you find that the Immortal ves in Green Hills City have low cultivation levels,] [All are at the Foundation Establishment level, and should not be your match.] [But, thinking that the simtion has just begun, you do not alert them.] [On the fourth day, you leave Green Hills City under the cover of night, without anyone noticing.] [On the sixth day, you arrive at the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple in the Evergreen Mountain Range.] [After arriving, you do the same as before, clearing the ruins, burying the bones, and obtaining the Heavenly Profound Art Mental Cultivation Method and severely damaged Cultivation Notes.] [In the following days, you begin daily cultivation.] [As usual, you practice the unnamed Martial Dao technique once a day, spending the rest of the time refining your Golden Core.] [In the blink of an eye, it is the third year, and Bai Ruoxue appears on time.] Chapter 33: Elusive and sorrowful Bai Ruoxue [Before the other party could start doubting you, you confessed honestly, saying that you built the cemetery for the seniors here out of gratitude after obtaining the Heavenly Profound Art.] [Bai Ruoxue didn''t believe you right away. Instead, she used her Divine Sense and spiritual energy to forcibly inspect you inside and out.] [In the end, she confirmed that you were not the Immortal ve she despised.] [At the same time, you also used the Eye of Insight talent on Bai Ruoxue.] [This time, you finally learned Bai Ruoxue''s true strength. She turned out to be an Eighth Layer of Tribtion Immortal Dao powerhouse.] [You must know that the highest realm of cultivation recorded in the Cultivation Notes is merely the Tribtion Crossing stage.] [This undoubtedly proves that she is indeed a peerless expert in the Immortal Dao.] [However, you were unaware that while you marveled at Bai Ruoxue''s strength, her heart was also stirred.] [Bai Ruoxue never expected that in this sealed Southern Regions, there would be a peerless Chosen who had achieved a Perfect Foundation Establishment and polished a Nine-Grade Golden Core.][Although the records mention a Tenth Grade Golden Core, those are just records.] [In Bai Ruoxue''s memory, she had never truly seen anyone with a Tenth Grade Golden Core.] [A Tenth Grade Golden Core is no longer just a matter of talent and effort; it also requires a great opportunity.] [The only person Bai Ruoxue had heard of with a Tenth Grade Golden Core was a peerless expert from millions of years ago, who resisted Heavenly Thunder, broke through formations, and ascended to the Ninth Heaven from this sealednd.] [In fact, even a Nine-Grade Golden Core is not easy to achieve. Bai Ruoxue knew that there were only a few Chosen with Nine-Grade Golden Cores in the entire Nine Mystic Realm.] [And now, you, at such a young age, have polished a Nine-Grade Golden Core.] [This made Bai Ruoxue find it hard to believe!] [It''s not that polishing the quality of a Golden Core is overlyplex; it just consumes too much time.] [After all, the lifespan during the Foundation Establishment stage is only 300 years, and the true golden period for cultivation is only the first 200 years.] [So, many Chosen would choose to spend a few decades polishing their Golden Core based on their circumstances, and then directly break through.] [If one really spent a hundred years polishing the Golden Core, they would often miss the best period for cultivation.] [In the end, it might be counterproductive, leaving no lifespan to cultivate and advance in realms.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng felt a chill in his heart as he read this. In thest simtion, Bai Ruoxue only mentioned the quality of the Golden Core, and he recklessly went for it. He knew nothing about this golden period for cultivation. Fortunately, he was in the simtor and didn''t need to worry about this. The rarity of a Nine-Grade Golden Core was also something Jiang Yifeng hadn''t expected. There were only a few people in the entire Nine Mystic Realm who had achieved it. No wonder it was so difficult to reach the Ninth Grade in thest simtion. In the end, it was a fluke, struck by Heavenly Thunder. Now Jiang Yifeng felt that he really needed to brush up on somemon knowledge about cultivation. Who knows what problems he might encounter in the future? He couldn''t always rely on the luck of the simtor''s text showing him the way! Jiang Yifeng thought that perhaps in future simtions, he should consider how to escape the Southern Regions and see the outside world. To enrich his understanding of cultivation. Of course, that was for the future. At this moment, a difficult problemy before Jiang Yifeng. He couldn''t help but furrow his brows. He was wondering if he should still insist on polishing a Tenth Grade Golden Core. ording to the simtion, a Tenth Grade Golden Core required not only talent and effort but also a great opportunity. Finally, Jiang Yifeng quickly reaffirmed his determination. He must strive for a Tenth Grade Golden Core. The simtor mentioned that the peerless expert who resisted Heavenly Thunder, broke through formations, and ascended to the Ninth Heaven millions of years ago also had a Tenth Grade Golden Core. But even so, the formation still existed, indicating that the expert only managed to escape and couldn''t kill or eliminate the enemies in the heavens. And Jiang Yifeng himself was also from the Southern Regions. If he wanted to be safe, he would eventually have to face the immortals in the heavens. If he couldn''t even reach the level of the senior who resisted Heavenly Thunder, he wouldn''t be able to protect his family, let alone ensure his own safety! Jiang Yifeng took a deep breath, feeling the weight of his responsibility. However, he also had some ideas. Since thest simtion''s Heavenly Thunder helped him raise his Golden Core to the Ninth Grade, perhaps he could continue to use Heavenly Thunder to see if he could break through to the Tenth Grade. With his thoughts clear, Jiang Yifeng continued to look at the simtor. [Bai Ruoxue looked at you, feeling a sense of pity.] [A Perfect Foundation Establishment with a Nine-Grade Golden Core already had the potential to be an immortal.] [Such a Chosen, born in this sealed Southern Regions.] [She gave you a regretful nce and then walked away without saying much.] [Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and Bai Ruoxue left.] [Before she left, she still gave you a storage ring but didn''t mention anything else.] [This left you feeling very puzzled.] [You didn''t understand why the situation in this simtion changed again. Why didn''t she mention the sealednd?] [Why didn''t Bai Ruoxue think of using you to create trouble for the Immortal ves?] [What you didn''t know was that Bai Ruoxue herself was conflicted.] [She had thought about telling you those things. Your potential could undoubtedly bring great trouble to the Immortal ves.] [But she truly cherished your talent.] [She felt that using such a Chosen to irritate the Immortal ves was overestimating them.] [She even considered helping you escape this sealednd.] [Although she couldn''t defeat the guardian beasts, she was confident that she could help you escape if she risked her life.] [Unfortunately, she ultimately didn''t do so, as it would mean directly opposing the immortals in the heavens.] [Shecked the courage and the strength.] [In the end, she could only provide you with some resources without using you, leaving your future development to fate.] [After Bai Ruoxue left, you opened the storage ring she left behind and found that the resources inside were significantly more than in thest simtion.] [There were as many as 100,000 spirit stones, and there was also a book titled "Annotations on Cultivation Knowledge" in the storage ring.] [However, you felt something was off about the book. It seemed too new, with some ink still wet.] [You suspected that Bai Ruoxue had just written it!] Outside the simtor, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but chuckle. Bai Ruoxue was indeed interesting. In previous simtions, when he was too weak, she provided him with life-saving items and protection. Later, when his talent improved, she became cautious and then tried to use him. Now, seeing his astonishing potential, she began to cherish his talent. She even wrote a book on cultivation knowledge for him on the spot. She was truly unpredictable. Moreover, Jiang Yifeng felt that Bai Ruoxue was indeed very conflicted, or perhaps somewhat tragic. From multiple simtions, it was clear that Bai Ruoxue harbored hostility towards the Immortal ves and even dissatisfaction with the immortals in the heavens. Jiang Yifeng guessed that this might be rted to the death of her senior brother. But she didn''t dare to rebel herself, only wanting to make small moves to trouble the Immortal ves. Chapter 34: Eh? Why should I run away? Jiang Yifeng didn''t dwell on Bai Ruoxue any longer. Instead, he began to ponder over the "Annotations on Cultivation Knowledge" she left behind. Could he use deep simtion to read and memorize it? From his previous deep simtion experience, Jiang Yifeng understood that the memories within the simtion could be retained. If he read the "Annotations on Cultivation Knowledge," he should be able to remember its general content. Judging by the title, this book should contain exnations and introductions tomon cultivation knowledge. Remembering the gist of it should be sufficient. After all, it wasn''t a Mental Cultivation Method with intricate meridian diagrams andplex spiritual energy flows where even the slightest mistake could be disastrous. How did Jiang Yifeng know that Mental Cultivation Methods had meridian diagrams? Of course, it was because he had seen the Heavenly Profound Art during hisst deep simtion.He had considered memorizing it to save himself a chance to im simtion rewards. Unfortunately, it wasn''t feasible; those meridian diagrams were too intricate. Relying on memory alone, Jiang Yifeng didn''t dare to try recklessly. With that thought, Jiang Yifeng silently chanted. "Activate deep simtion for one day!" [Ding, activating deep simtion for 24 hours, deducting 240,000 energy value, remaining energy value: 11.2 billion¡­] Entering the deep simtion, Jiang Yifeng took out the "Annotations on Cultivation Knowledge," its ink still fresh, and began to study it earnestly. As expected, the content was all aboutmon cultivation knowledge. From Qi Refining to Tribtion Crossing, each stage had some points of attention written down. This was immensely beneficial to Jiang Yifeng. In the blink of an eye, a day passed, and Jiang Yifeng remained engrossed in reading. Seeing that the deep simtion was about to end, Jiang Yifeng even extended it by another ten days. The cultivation information within was too valuable for Jiang Yifeng to miss. He worried that he wouldn''t remember it all, so he decided to read it several times. Ten days passed, and the deep simtion ended. Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness returned to his bedroom in the Jiang Family Mansion. He didn''t move immediately but continued to digest the memorized content. Regarding Qi Refining to Foundation Establishment, and even the Tenth Grade Golden Core, Jiang Yifeng already had some understanding. But after reading the "Annotations on Cultivation Knowledge," he gained a lot of new knowledge. He also discovered some shorings in his previous cultivation. The most crucial point was that he had never considered the role of Spiritual Roots. ording to the "Annotations on Cultivation Knowledge," Spiritual Roots not only affected cultivation speed. They also had their own attributes, which Jiang Yifeng knew because the simtor had shown his Spiritual Root talent as dual attributes of thunder and fire. But he had never thought about how to develop them. Now Jiang Yifeng knew that thunder and fire attributes were both strong offensive Spiritual Roots, greatly enhancingbat effectiveness. Additionally, fire attribute Spiritual Roots were also suitable for auxiliary skills like alchemy and artifact refining. As for thunder Spiritual Roots, besides their strong offensive capabilities, they were also suitable for auxiliary body techniques. Although he knew this now, Jiang Yifeng still couldn''t develop them, but at least he had found a direction for his future efforts, saving himself a lot of trial-and-error costs. Collecting his thoughts, Jiang Yifeng decided to continue looking at the simtor''s progress. [You read the "Annotations on Cultivation Knowledge" for several days, gaining immense benefits.] [Afterward, you didn''t stay there and chose to leave.] [This time, you went to the oasis in the Desert of Death.] [Although in theter stages of thest simtion, you saw many Demonic Pythons in the desert, making you uneasy.] [But after multiple simtions, you believed those Demonic Pythons wouldn''t appear randomly, making this ce still the best for secluded cultivation.] [In the fifth year, you worked hard to refine the quality of your Golden Core. You felt like you were making progress, but upon closer inspection, there seemed to be no change.] [In the tenth year, you were still refining your Golden Core, facing the same issue. You felt progress but couldn''t see any change in the Golden Core.] [In the twentieth year, you continued refining your Golden Core.] [In the fortieth year, you were still refining your Golden Core, but this year, you decided to leave the Desert of Death.] [After all, in three years, you knew a great battle would ur here.] [In the forty-second year, you left the Desert of Death.] [This time, because you left early, you didn''t encounter any cultivators or Immortal ves.] [In the forty-third year, in a remote vige, you looked towards the Desert of Death, thinking that your father and those cultivators should have started their battle by now.] [In the fiftieth year, knowing that Heavenly Thunder would descend in two years, you no longer kept a low profile.] [This year, you began using your Eye of Insight to ambush and hunt down lone low-level Immortal ves.] [You did this not out of spite but for resources.] [You wanted to obtain Spirit Stones from these Immortal ves to elerate the refining of your Golden Core.] [Actually, you had this idea for a long time.] [But to take advantage of the Heavenly Thunder''s effect, you didn''t dare to act early.] [You worried that early actions would attract high-level Immortal ves who would hunt you down.] [At that time, you might not survive until the Heavenly Thunder descended.] [But now, you felt it didn''t matter. After all, only two years were left.] [You thought if you acted discreetly and gathered enough Spirit Stones for two years, you could then hide again. With some luck, it should be fine.] [In the fifty-first year, your n went wrong.] [This year, in a small town, you discovered an Immortal ve at the fifth level of Foundation Establishment.] [Using your Eye of Insight, you observed almost everyone in the town.] [After confirming that there was only this one Immortal ve, you didn''t hesitate andunched a surprise attack.] [Everything seemed to go smoothly.] [After killing the Foundation Establishment Immortal ve, you eagerly picked up his storage ring.] [At that moment, you suddenly felt a sense of danger.] [With a "bang," you were suddenly punched and sent flying.] [Instinctively, you turned to see a shadowy figure flying in the air, staring at you.] [You realized that it was him who attacked you.] [But you couldn''t understand why there was another Immortal ve, and at the Core Formation stage no less.] [You had clearly used the Eye of Insight to scan the entire town.] [Unfortunately, you didn''t know that luck is also a form of strength.] [Previously, there were indeed no other Immortal ves in the town.] [But just as you acted, a Core Formation Immortal ve happened to be flying overhead and sensed the aura of a cultivator when you attacked.] [Without thinking, you quickly got up and activated the Teleportation Jade te to escape.] [Soon, you disappeared from the spot and reappeared a thousand miles away.] [But shortly after, you realized something was wrong.] [You didn''t seem to be injured. Although the punch hurt, the actual damage was minimal.] [So why did you flee? For a moment, you were utterly confused.] Chapter 35: Intelligence Reduction Aura, terrifying as such ¡¾After a brief moment of shock, you realized you had underestimated yourself.¡¿ ¡¾Seeing a Core Formation stage expert, you instinctively chose to flee and hide.¡¿ ¡¾Upon reflection, you remembered that your Martial Dao had already reached the third major realm, the Qi Motion Realm.¡¿ ¡¾Comparing Martial Dao to Immortal Dao, the Qi Motion Realm corresponds to the Core Formation stage.¡¿ ¡¾You pped your forehead and sighed, "I was careless."¡¿ ¡¾You felt it was a miscalction on your part, failing to urately assess your own strength.¡¿ ¡¾Had you known earlier, you thought you could have been bolder in this simtion.¡¿ ¡¾But it''s all in the past, and you didn''t bother to dwell on it.¡¿ ¡¾Looking around, you found yourself transported to a mountain forest.¡¿¡¾You were quite satisfied with the surroundings and decided to spend the remaining time here cultivating in seclusion.¡¿ ¡¾As for the Immortal ve who attacked you earlier? You believed he wouldn''t find you here.¡¿ ¡¾After all, you had been teleported a thousand miles away. Even for a Core Formation stage expert, it would take two hours of flying, and he didn''t know the direction, making it hard to locate you.¡¿ ¡¾Days passed, and indeed, the Immortal ve did not find you. You felt a bit disappointed.¡¿ ¡¾In your heart, you were somewhat eager to be found and have a battle.¡¿ ¡¾After all, it was a Core Formation stage expert. Engaging in a fight would help you better gauge your own strength.¡¿ ¡¾If you couldn''t win, based on the punch you took earlier, you were confident you could escape again using the Teleportation Jade te.¡¿ ¡¾Unfortunately, you couldn''t fulfill that wish.¡¿ ¡¾In the fifty-second year, Heavenly Thunder descended as scheduled.¡¿ ¡¾After being struck several times, you could no longer withstand it.¡¿ ¡¾You died at the age of 72!¡¿ ¡¾This simtion has ended.¡¿ ¡¾You can choose two rewards from this simtion: Eye of Insight (Talent), Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method), Martial Dao Cultivation, Immortal Dao Cultivation.¡¿ ¡¾Eye of Insight (Talent)¡¿: Costs 1 million Energy Value. ¡¾Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method)¡¿: Costs 10 million Energy Value. ¡¾Martial Dao Cultivation¡¿: Costs 100,000 Energy Value; (Although it doesn''t enhance your realm, experiencing Heavenly Thunder once more has improved your cultivation.) ¡¾Immortal Dao Cultivation¡¿: Costs 1 million Energy Value; (The realm hasn''t increased, but a Nine-Grade Golden Core polished for 52 years seems to have some effect.) Jiang Yifeng looked at the simtion rewards, somewhat surprised. Originally, he had nned to choose the talent and the Heavenly Profound Art. After all, neither his Martial Dao nor Immortal Dao cultivation had increased in realm, so he didn''t expect these two options to be avable. Unexpectedly, even without a realm increase, they appeared in the reward list. This hadn''t happened before. But upon closer thought, Jiang Yifeng found it reasonable. The higher the realm, the harder it is to advance. It''s possible to be stuck at a minor realm for many years. If the rewards only appeared with realm advancements, the simtor''s usefulness would diminish in theter stages. Perhaps this hadn''t happened before because his realm was too low. Or maybe the simtor had its own calction method, requiring a certain threshold to be met for rewards to appear. Looking at the reward list, Jiang Yifeng made his choice. "I choose Eye of Insight (Talent) and Immortal Dao Cultivation." ¡¾Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining the talent: Eye of Insight, deducting 1 million Energy Value, remaining Energy Value: 11.2 billion...¡¿ ¡¾Ding, Immortal Dao Cultivation sessfully extracted, Golden Core polishing time increased by 52 years, deducting 1 million Energy Value, remaining Energy Value: 11.2 billion...¡¿ This time, Jiang Yifeng didn''t feel anything special from the reward extraction. As for why he chose this way, it was because he wanted to aim for a Ten-Grade Golden Core. Previously, he sought opportunities to break through to the Ten-Grade, but now knowing the simtor could umte time, he thought multiple simtions might achieve it. He believed that with enough time, even an iron rod could be ground into a needle. After finishing the extraction, Jiang Yifeng walked out of his room feeling refreshed. Looking at the sky, it was time to visit the Pleasure House and listen to music. Jiang Yifeng shook his paper fan and headed towards the Spring Blossom Pavilion. After all, a yboy must act like a yboy. Especially after this simtion, he knew there were Immortal ves hidden in Green Hills City, including someone he knew. He couldn''t afford to show any abnormality. But who was this acquaintance? The simtion didn''t reveal the person''s name. Jiang Yifeng was quite curious. A week passed quickly. In fact, these past few days had been quite nerve-wracking for Jiang Yifeng. Every day he listened to music with his heart in his throat. Because with the Eye of Insight, he had identified which acquaintance was the Immortal ve. To his surprise, it was Qiu Zhixuan, the courtesan of the Spring Blossom Pavilion. She was indeed an old acquaintance. Jiang Yifeng had frequented her services many times before. Knowing Qiu Zhixuan was an Immortal ve, Jiang Yifeng considered not going to the Pleasure House. But then he thought it best to maintain his usual lifestyle. Reality wasn''t a simtion; there were no do-overs. Any w could bring danger, Jiang Yifeng thought. At this moment, seeing the simtion attempts had refreshed, Jiang Yifeng quickly returned to his room and softly muttered. "Start simtion!" ¡¾Consuming 1 simtion attempt, remaining attempts 0¡¿ ¡¾Drawing Blue Talent costs 100,000 Energy Value, drawing Purple Talent costs 1 million Energy Value, please choose!¡¿ "Draw Purple Talent." ¡¾Ding, deducting 1 million Energy Value, drawing Purple Talent, remaining Energy Value 11.2 billion...¡¿ ¡¾Congrattions to the host for obtaining Purple Talent: Intelligence Reduction Aura.¡¿ ¡¾Intelligence Reduction Aura¡¿: Essential for the protagonist, those who interact with you will have their intelligence forcibly reduced. (Note: Without the fate of a protagonist, having the "illness" of a protagonist might not always be a good thing!) "This..." Looking at the talent he drew, Jiang Yifeng felt both joy and sorrow. If it weren''t for the "note" at the end, he might have been happy. After all, having read countless novels in his past life, Jiang Yifeng knew how absurd the Intelligence Reduction Aura was. But seeing the note, Jiang Yifeng felt it was subtly mocking him. Forget it, let''s see how the simtion goes. ¡¾The 12th simtion begins.¡¿ ¡¾Knowing you were entering the simtion, you immediately left your room, preparing to head to the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple.¡¿ ¡¾Just as you stepped out, you encountered Little Peach, the maid, carrying tea.¡¿ ¡¾Seeing you, her face turned red, and she stared at you intently. Then you heard a "plop" as Little Peach, distracted by looking at you, fell into a pond.¡¿ ¡¾The pond wasn''t deep, not enough to drown her, so you didn''t pay much attention and continued walking outside.¡¿ ¡¾On the street, you were suddenly stopped by a young master you didn''t recognize, likely an outsider passing through Green Hills City.¡¿ ¡¾He used you of looking at him and ordered his men to gouge out your eyes as an apology.¡¿ ¡¾You suddenly felt something was off, like a scene from a novel you read in your past life.¡¿ ¡¾That''s when you realized the Intelligence Reduction Aura had already taken effect.¡¿ ¡¾But this seemed even more awkward. Just for looking at him, he was causing trouble?¡¿ ¡¾You couldn''t help but marvel: Intelligence Reduction Aura, truly terrifying!¡¿ Chapter 36: I knew that my brother couldn’t bear to hit me [You didn''t want to get entangled with this Young Master, but you also didn''t want to expose your strength too soon. After all, the simtion had just begun, and Green Hills City had Immortal ves.] [So, you revealed your identity, saying you were the young master of the Jiang n Firm, hoping he would back off.] [Unfortunately, the Young Master sneered, saying you were just a merchant''s son, while his father was the lord of the neighboring Bright Moon City, a high-ranking official appointed by the ruler of the Great Abyssal Kingdom.] [He didn''t take you seriously at all, even threatening to gouge out your eyes and bankrupt the Jiang n Firm.] [You were speechless, thinking that the Intelligence Reduction Aura was really too harsh.] [Just one nce at him, and it escted to this?] [The key point you didn''t understand was how a city lord''s son from Bright Moon City dared to speak like this.] [Bright Moon City was just a small city, and there were at least tens of thousands of such city lords in the Great Abyssal Kingdom.] [You thought that this city lord, if you reallypared, was probably on the same level as a town mayor from your previous life!][It was one thing for a city lord''s son to look down on you, a son of one of the nation''s top wealthiest firms.] [But he even wanted to shut down the Jiang n Firm, which had business across multiple countries.] [You felt this was simply againstmon sense; anyone with a bit of brain wouldn''t say such things.] [Seeing that things couldn''t be resolved peacefully, you were considering whether to reveal some of your martial strength and leave first.] [At this moment, a woman''s figure appeared, standing in front of you. She pped the Young Master, sending him flying dozens of meters away.] [With such force, everyone could see that the woman was no ordinary person. The Young Master''s guards were too scared to act, and they left with their Young Master in disgrace.] [However, as the Young Master left, he still shouted that he would be back and that you should wait.] [The Young Master left, but the trouble didn''t end.] [Instead, it made you feel even more troubled.] [Because the person who intervened was Qiu Zhixuan, the courtesan of the Spring Blossom Pavilion.] [You knew she was an Immortal ve.] [You saw her looking at you affectionately, asking why you didn''te to listen to her song today, saying she missed you dearly.] [You felt a chill in your heart.] [Damn, another one affected by the Intelligence Reduction Aura.] [Qiu Zhixuan wasn''t like this before. Although she wasn''t cold to you, she had never been so infatuated.] [In the end, your n to go to the Evergreen Mountain Range to retrieve the Mental Cultivation Method from the Heavenly Profound Temple ruins was dyed.] [Helplessly, you followed Qiu Zhixuan to the Spring Blossom Pavilion and listened to her sing for half the night.] [It was onlyte at night that you found an excuse to slip away.] [Leaving the Spring Blossom Pavilion, you hurried towards the Evergreen Mountain Range under the cover of night.] [With your strength, it should have taken only two or three days to cover the distance of a few thousand kilometers.] [But this time, it took you a full half month to reach the Evergreen Mountain Range.] [Along the way, you were constantly dyed by various inexplicable reasons whenever you encountered people.] [For example, if you traveled too fast, some Young Master would say you were disrespecting him by overtaking his carriage and then cause trouble for you.] [Or someone would say you were wearing the same color clothes as them, or you started walking with your left foot first... there were all sorts of bizarre reasons.] [Besides being troubled, there were also some youngdies who would fall for you at first sight, even though you were just passing by.] [This made you suffer greatly.] [But overall, it wasn''t too bad. Apart from wasting some time, it didn''t cause you any substantial trouble.] [So you didn''t pay much attention to it.] [After arriving at the Heavenly Profound Temple ruins, you cleaned up the ce as usual.] [Then you buried the bones and obtained the Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method "Heavenly Profound Art."] [In the following time, you continued to refine your Golden Core.] [Half a year passed in the blink of an eye, and while you were cultivating, you suddenly heard someone calling your name.] [You opened your eyes and saw that it was Qiu Zhixuan.] [This made your heart skip a beat, and you became a bit flustered.] [You couldn''t understand why Qiu Zhixuan was here. This had never happened in previous simtions.] [You quickly looked around and found that only Qiu Zhixuan was there, which calmed you down a bit.] [She was only at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage, the same level as you.] [You thought she was not a threat, so you secretly gathered your spiritual energy, preparing to strike first.] [But before you could act, you saw Qiu Zhixuan looking at you affectionately, questioning why you hadn''te to listen to her sing for two months and why you were hiding in this deep mountain.] [Her tearful look made it seem as if you had wronged her.] [You were unmoved, not considering whether what she said was true or false.] [You only knew that she was an Immortal ve, and if she saw you cultivating, you would be in danger if you didn''t kill her.] [So when Qiu Zhixuan approached, you chose to attack without warning.] [But just as your attack was about to reach Qiu Zhixuan, you saw her body shift, easily dodging it.] [Seeing this scene made you frown; this was not the oue you had imagined!] [You remembered that in previous simtions, you had sessfully ambushed many Foundation Establishment Immortal ves.] [You didn''t expect Qiu Zhixuan to be an exception this time, with such remarkable body techniques.] [This made you more vignt.] [After all, your currentbat relied solely on spiritual energy and physical strength; you hadn''t learned anybat techniques.] [Unlike your vignce, Qiu Zhixuan looked at you intently, tears streaming down her face, and said aggrievedly, "You actually hit me!"] [Minutes passed as you continuously attacked Qiu Zhixuan, but she only dodged and looked at you pitifully, without counterattacking.] [By now, you realized something was wrong.] [With the body techniques Qiu Zhixuan disyed, if she wanted to leave, you couldn''t stop her.] [If she wanted to kill you, she could use her body techniques to her advantage, or leave and find stronger Immortal ves to kill you.] [Suddenly, you thought of the Intelligence Reduction Aura.] [Could it be that this talent had made Qiu Zhixuan, an Immortal ve, so infatuated with you that she had given up her mission to kill cultivators?] [You were astonished and thought, "No way!"] [Thinking this, you paused your attacks and asked Qiu Zhixuan why she was here.] [But your hand was tightly gripping the Teleportation Jade te, ready to teleport away at any sign of danger!] [Seeing you stop attacking, Qiu Zhixuan smiled and said, "I knew Brother Yifeng couldn''t bear to really hit me."] [Hearing her sweet voice, you felt a chill in your heart.] [You thought, "It''s not that I can''t bear to hit you; I want to kill you, but I just can''t do it!"] Chapter 38: The farce is over! A new simulation begins Qiu Zhixuan''s grandfather, Qiu Kuang, pondered for a long time. In the end, he didn''t kill you but took you and Qiu Zhixuan away. Only the Immortal ve youngdy who fell in love with you at first sight was left standing alone. A few dayster, you were brought to the capital of the Great Abyssal Kingdom. Qiu Kuang told you that if you wanted to be with his granddaughter Qiu Zhixuan, you must pass a test and join the Immortal Arrival Sect. He didn''t even ask why you were cultivating, which was quite abstract. Hearing Qiu Kuang''s demand for you to join the Immortal Arrival Sect, you nodded in agreement without hesitation. You knew that joining the Immortal Arrival Sect meant you could cultivate openly, without fear of being hunted down or struck by Heavenly Thunder. You thought this might allow you to extend your simtion time. Of course, even if you wanted to refuse, you couldn''t; Qiu Kuang had a firm grip on you.Your nod made Qiu Zhixuan jump for joy, thinking you agreed solely for her. However, things didn''t go smoothly. The Immortal Arrival Sect had no precedent for epting cultivators from the Southern Regions. Even though Qiu Kuang was an elder, he needed to apply for approval. His multiple applications for you to join the Immortal Arrival Sect and take the test were all rejected. Other Immortal ves in the sect even sternly demanded Qiu Kuang to kill you. Until others in the Immortal Arrival Sect saw you in person, the situation changed rapidly. Some people found you increasingly displeasing and were determined to kill you. Others saw you as if you were their own son, insisting on protecting you and believing you must join the Immortal Arrival Sect. Because of your presence, the Immortal Arrival Sect dramatically split into two factions. They argued daily because of you. The situation escted, leading to internal conflicts. Finally, a bolt of purple lightning struck down, ending this farcepletely. You died at the age of 29! This simtion ends. You can choose two rewards from this simtion: Intelligence Reduction Aura (Talent), Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method), Wind Chasing Art (Body Techniques Manual). Intelligence Reduction Aura (Talent): Price 1 million Energy Value. Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method): Price 10 million Energy Value. Wind Chasing Art (Body Techniques Manual): Price 5 million Energy Value. Seeing the simtion end, Jiang Yifeng felt a mix of emotions. This simtion was truly a farce, with not much worth summarizing. After all, everyone in the simtion was affected by the Intelligence Reduction Aura. Either they were overly affectionate towards him, or they were looking for trouble, hating him to the core. The only useful information was that Qiu Zhixuan''s grandfather had the simtion join the Immortal Arrival Sect, and the location was the capital of the Great Abyssal Kingdom. Perhaps that''s where the headquarters of the Immortal Arrival Sect is. But for now, it doesn''t matter to him. Jiang Yifeng directly looked at the simtion rewards. It had been a long time since he had seen such meager rewards, with only three options. This time, there wasn''t even a cultivation reward. But Jiang Yifeng wasn''t surprised. After all, he could tell from the simtion text. In this simtion, he was beset with troubles, probably with very little time to cultivate peacefully. The minimal improvement made it reasonable for no cultivation rewards to appear on the list. The only pleasant surprise was the Wind Chasing Art. It somewhat made up for hisck ofbat techniques. There was no need to think about the rewards this time; the Intelligence Reduction Aura (Talent) was too dangerous, harming both others and himself. Jiang Yifeng felt he didn''t have the protagonist''s fate to handle it. So he directly made his choice: "I choose the Heavenly Profound Art and Wind Chasing Art." Ding! Congrattions, Host, for obtaining the Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method) and Wind Chasing Art (Body Techniques Manual). Deducting 15 million Energy Value, remaining Energy Value: 1.12 billion... In an instant, two manuals appeared in Jiang Yifeng''s hands. Looking at the Heavenly Profound Art in his hand, Jiang Yifeng felt a bit emotional. This technique had finally been redeemed. It had appeared as a reward in every simtion since the third one. Putting all the rewards into his storage ring, Jiang Yifeng calmed his mind and walked out of his room. It was another beautiful day, perfect for listening to music at a pleasure house! "Well, I won''t go to the Spring Blossom Pavilion today. Just finished a simtion, still a bit wary of Qiu Zhixuan, afraid of slipping up." Jiang Yifeng murmured to himself. Then he headed to another ce to listen to music. He felt this wouldn''t affect his persona too much. He could return to the Spring Blossom Pavilion in a couple of days; it''s only natural to change tastes asionally. A week passed in the blink of an eye, and the simtion count refreshed again. Jiang Yifeng returned to his room and silently said, "Start the simtion!" Consuming one simtion count, remaining count: 0. Drawing a Blue Talent costs 100,000 Energy Value. Drawing a Purple Talent costs 1 million Energy Value. Please choose a draw! "Draw a Purple Talent." Ding! Deducting 1 million Energy Value, drawing Purple Talent, remaining Energy Value: 1.12 billion... Congrattions, Host, for obtaining the Purple Talent: Random Enlightenment. Random Enlightenment: While cultivating, you may asionally enter a state of enlightenment. (Note: In the state of enlightenment, cultivation speed is randomly increased by 2 to 10 times; thoughts are more active, making it easier to discover problems and break through bottlenecks!) The 13th simtion begins. You realize you are already in the simtion. This time, you have an Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method, so you don''t need to rush to the Heavenly Profound Temple ruins. But Green Hills City is crowded, and with the presence of Immortal ves, the fluctuations during your cultivation are easily noticed. So you decide to head to the Heavenly Profound Temple ruins in the Evergreen Mountain Range to cultivate. That night, you leave Green Hills City when the streets are empty. On the third day, you arrive at the Heavenly Profound Temple ruins. Although you already have an Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method, you still bury the bones here and clean up the ruins. After that, you begin your cultivation. For this simtion''s cultivation n, you decide to temporarily set aside Martial Dao. You focus on refining your Golden Core every day and spend two hours learning the Wind Chasing Art. In the first year, you don''t know how much progress you''ve made in refining your Golden Core, as you still see no sign of the tenth pattern appearing. However, your body technique, Wind Chasing Art, has reached the entry level. Now, with the buff from the body technique, your running speed is nearly doubledpared to your normal state. Just the entry-level body technique has such a significant improvement; if cultivated to a higher level, the difference would be immense. This makes you realize the importance ofbat techniques. You decide to quickly find other types ofbat techniques in the future. The buff effect is just too significant. In the second year, despite your hard work, there are no obvious breakthroughs in any aspect. In the third year, Bai Ruoxue arrives. After a series of interrogations, she confirms that you are not an Immortal ve. She has some appreciation for your talent but doesn''t say much. Three dayster, Bai Ruoxue leaves, giving you a storage ring. You open the storage ring to find 100,000 Spirit Stones and a freshly written book titled "Annotations on Cultivation Knowledge." These items are identical to those from the previous simtion, so you don''t pay much attention to them. Chapter 38: The farce is over!

[Not long after, you left the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple.] [This time, instead of heading to the Desert of Death, you found a secluded ce to cultivate alone.] [In the fifth year, while practicing the "Wind Chasing Art," you triggered a random enlightenment, increasing your cultivation speed by eight times.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [The enlightenment not only sped up your cultivation but also made your thoughts more active.] [While practicing the Wind Chasing Art, you seemed to feel the rhythm of the wind.] [In that instant, your body techniques advanced from the entry level to the minor achievement level.] [This filled you with joy, as you felt you had discovered the essence of this technique.] [You believed that as long as you could clearly sense the rhythm of the wind, your body techniques would make significant progress.] [Ten days passed in the blink of an eye, and the state of enlightenment ended.][Your body techniques improved greatly, but you were somewhat dissatisfied.] [Because that rhythm of the wind only appeared for a moment, and no matter how hard you tried afterward, you couldn''t sense it again.] [In the sixth year, you focused on refining your Golden Core and practicing your body techniques, making slight progress.] [Several years passed in the blink of an eye.] [In the thirteenth year, you disguised yourself and secretly returned to Green Hills City.] [You didn''t go home but hid your identity and stayed in the shadows.] [This time, you wanted to use the Eye of Insight to confirm the identity and strength of the shadowy figure who attacked the Jiang Family.] [Although you were almost certain it was an Immortal ve, everything was still just your spection.] [After all, this shadowy figure was the reason you were driven to work so hard, and you had some obsessions in your heart.] [Of course, besides that, you also wanted to see how your father, Jiang Fushan, managed to escape from this assassination attempt.] [This was a decision you made after careful consideration.] [In a previous simtion, you had already escaped from this person''s grasp using the Teleportation Jade te.] [It was just bad luck that you encountered another Immortal ve that time.] [So you believed that as long as your luck wasn''t too bad, escaping wouldn''t be a problem.] [Moreover, this time you were prepared to observe from a distance and not show yourself, so you felt even safer.] [You hid in a small farmhouse a few streets away from the Jiang Family Mansion. Two monthster, you suddenly heard a loud noise.] [You saw a shadowy figure appear above the Jiang Family Mansion from a distance.] [At this moment, the Jiang Family Mansion had already copsed.] [You quickly used the Eye of Insight to check the person''s information.] [No surprise, it was an Immortal ve from the Immortal Arrival Sect, named Yang Zuo, at the ninth level of Core Formation.] [This strength was much lower than you had imagined.] [However, this was understandable. Previously, without any cultivation, seeing someone destroy the Jiang Family Mansion with a single palm strike naturally made you think this person was very strong.] [But now it was different. With your Perfect Foundation Establishment, you could also destroy several houses with full power.] [After confirming this person''s strength, you couldn''t help but smile.] [You thought to yourself that soon, this person would no longer be a threat to you.] [This made you feel much better.] [While you were checking Yang Zuo''s information, another situation urred above the Jiang Family Mansion.] [You saw your father, Jiang Fushan, flying in from a distance.] [Behind your father were several cultivators.] [After these people appeared, one of them swung a sword, and the shadowy figure named Yang Zuo instantly perished.] [Then, you saw your father, Jiang Fushan, organizing the remaining members of the Jiang Family to start moving.] [The cultivators were vigntly guarding the surroundings.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng sighed at this point. His spection about his father was wrong! Previously, he had reasoned that there were only two simtions where he stayed in Green Hills City. But in both simtions, by the twelfth year, his father made different decisions. In one, when he was still a yboy, his father let him stay at the Jiang Family Mansion. In the other, when he had some Martial Dao skills, his father told him to flee. Initially, Jiang Yifeng thought that his father knew about the danger, so he told him to run when he had Martial Dao skills. This seemed correct now. But his previous analysis, where he thought his father was nning to run with him when he had no cultivation, waspletely wrong. His perspective was too narrow. His father wanted to protect the entire Jiang Family. He had brought so many cultivators to ensure the safety of the Jiang Family members. But judging by the simtion, it seemed he was still a bitte. The Jiang Family still copsed, and many people were killed or injured. "But reality won''t be like this. There''s still me and the simtor." Jiang Yifeng chuckled and continued to look at the simtor. [You were stunned by the current situation.] [This waspletely contrary to your previous spection.] [You originally thought that in the thirteenth year, the shadowy figure would destroy the Jiang Family, and your father would start fleeing.] [But it turned out that your father returned with arge group of cultivators and forcefully killed the shadowy figure.] [Now, it seemed your father was organizing the Jiang Family members to evacuate.] [After a brief moment of shock, you quickly activated the Eye of Insight to check the strength of these cultivators.] [After seeing the information of these local cultivators, your first reaction was: How is this possible!] [Among these people, several had reached the Tribtion Crossing stage.] [Of course, this wasn''t the key point; it only indicated that they had good talent!] [The key point was that these people were already over a thousand years old.] [In a previous simtion, Bai Ruoxue had told you that Heavenly Thunder descended every few decades.] [Could these people also be Immortal ves, from the Immortal Arrival Sect?] [Impossible, the Eye of Insight didn''t show that.] [The information about the shadowy figure Yang Zuo clearly indicated his affiliation with the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [But how did these cultivators survive?] [This left you very puzzled.] [If it were just a Tribtion Crossing stage cultivator in their hundreds, you might think they started cultivatingte and had good talent.] [But a Tribtion Crossing stage cultivator over a thousand years old must have experienced the Heavenly Thunder tribtion.] [Could it be that the Heavenly Thunder isn''t necessarily fatal?] [You had a question in your heart, which shattered your previous ns.] [Originally, you nned to confirm the identity and level of the shadowy figure and then cultivate alone.] [Now it seemed you needed to interact with these people; perhaps you could gain something different.] [After making your decision, you walked towards the Jiang Family Mansion.] [As soon as you approached, the vignt cultivators stopped you, not allowing you to get closer.] [Helpless, you had to shout for your father, Jiang Fushan.] [Upon hearing your voice, your father appeared in front of you shortly after.] [His eyes were red as he looked at you, as if he had a thousand words to say, but in the end, he only said one sentence: It''s good that you''re back!] Chapter 40: Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya You suddenly feel a bit mncholic. When you left, you only left behind a letter, and then disappeared for over a decade. You know how much this hurt your father. However, you quickly adjusted your emotions. This is something unavoidable; after all, in this simtion, if you''re not ruthless and diligent, reality will only bring more tragedies. In the blink of an eye, several days passed. You followed your father, Jiang Fushan, and a group of cultivators as you evacuated Green Hills City. You arrived at a ce called Spine Mountain. Here, there was no sign of human habitation, and you could even feel that the spiritual energy in the air was quite thin. But after entering the mountain, you saw many local cultivators and some of their families.The Jiang family also settled down here. Not long after you arrived, your identity as a cultivator was seen through by an old man in the seventh stage of Tribtion Crossing. He directly saw through the Breath Concealing Talisman you were carrying. You weren''t surprised by this; after all, Bai Ruoxue, who had crafted the Breath Concealing Talisman, was also in the Tribtion Crossing stage. It was normal for it to be seen through by another expert of the same stage. When your father found out you were also a cultivator, he was overjoyed and handed over all his resources to you. But looking at the pitiful few thousand spirit stones, and thinking about how Bai Ruoxue had casually given you a hundred thousand spirit stones, you suddenly felt the destitution of the local cultivators. You didn''t ept your father''s spirit stones. Instead, you asked him many questions about the local cultivators. However, your father had only recentlye into contact with cultivation and didn''t know much. He only said that the world was vast, and this ce was a sealednd. There was an organization called the Immortal Arrival Sect that hunted ordinary cultivators. The cultivators here were all saved by Old Li, and everyone huddled together for warmth. You knew who your father was referring to as Old Li; it was the old man who had seen through your identity as a cultivator. So, you often hung around Old Li, asking him various questions. Old Li was very forting and told you many things. This answered many of your doubts. For example, spirit stones. ording to Old Li, in the Southern Regions, spirit stones were basically controlled by the Immortal Arrival Sect. These cultivators obtained their spirit stones by risking their lives to either steal or rob from the Immortal Arrival Sect''s mines. You also asked him how to avoid Heavenly Thunder. Old Li smiled bitterly and said that people like them had no way to avoid Heavenly Thunder; they were just relying on the legacies of their ancestors. He told you that although the Southern Regions were small, over countless years, there had been several extraordinarily talented individuals. The most remarkable among them were Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya. He told you that Mo Jingtian was the one who, millions of years ago, withstood the Heavenly Thunder and broke open the sealednd. Most people only remember him, but they don''t know that there was also a formation genius, Lu Wuya, who was with him. ording to the tales passed down by the elders, it was because of theirbined efforts that the sealing formation was torn open in several ces. Unfortunately, the formation genius Lu Wuya didn''t have enough strength to escape safely. Perhaps Lu Wuya had already anticipated his death and left behind a formation in the Southern Regions that could avoid Heavenly Thunder. It was this formation that gave future generations hope for cultivation. Without this formation, there might not be any cultivators in the Southern Regions outside of the Immortal Arrival Sect. Those who survived the Heavenly Thunder did so because they hid in the formation left by the predecessors in advance. But as he spoke, Old Li''s expression grew somber. He then told you that the formation, after countless years, was on the verge of copse. Perhaps the next time Heavenly Thunder strikes, it will be the death of these old fellows. Hearing this, you understood. This exined many of the doubts you had in previous simtions. You had always wondered why, in the forty-third year of the simtion, arge number of local cultivators rushed into the Desert of Death. Now it seems that the formation must havepletely copsed. The local cultivators knew that staying in the Southern Regions would only lead to death when the Heavenly Thunder arrived, so they acted as they did. In the following days, you stayed in Spine Mountain and began cultivating. In the fourteenth year, you ran out of spirit stones. In the fifteenth year, you joined the local cultivators in raiding a small mine of the Immortal Arrival Sect. In this operation, threepanions were sacrificed. You were also seriously injured, but in the end, you received two thousand spirit stones. Such operations were actually quite frequent, often organized by someone. However, each time there were casualties, and you even knew of one operation where everyone was wiped out, with no one returning. In the end, Old Li said that they were unlucky and happened to encounter an elder of the Immortal Arrival Sect patrolling the mine, leading to their total annihtion. The local cultivators of Spine Mountain, besides participating in such collective actions, also had some lone wolves. They rarely stayed long on the mountain, often wandering outside to rob solitary Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect. Such people faced even greater dangers. It could be said that for spirit stones, the cultivators here had to risk their lives. In the entire Spine Mountain, the only one who didn''t go out to rob spirit stone resources was Old Li. Because Old Li was the stabilizing force for everyone here. He was the only one who didn''t fear the Immortal Arrival Sect, and his cultivation level was even higher than anyone in the Immortal Arrival Sect. But he couldn''t move around freely, because if he left, this ce would surely be besieged by the Immortal Arrival Sect. The other cultivators would be homeless, and their families would have no safe ce to stay. It could be said that it was because of Old Li that so many cultivators gathered here, and the Immortal Arrival Sect didn''t dare to cause trouble here.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om You also asked Old Li why, since he was the strongest, he didn''t just destroy the Immortal Arrival Sect. His answer was that if he destroyed this batch, the next batch of people from the Immortal Arrival Sect would only be stronger. You instantly understood the meaning behind his words. These were allckeys of the celestial beings above; as long as the masterminds weren''t dead, killing the minions was useless, as more would just take their ce! In the sixteenth year, you left alone. The spiritual energy in Spine Mountain was too thin. Without spirit stones, it was hard to absorb any spiritual energy. Although you were refining your Golden Core, you still needed spiritual energy to polish and refine it. Without spiritual energy, you couldn''t make any progress. In the seventeenth year, you passed through a small town and robbed two Foundation Establishment Immortal ves, obtaining over five thousand spirit stones. In the eighteenth year, you used up the spirit stones you had robbed the previous year; your progress was unclear. In the neenth year, without spirit stones, you cultivated for a year. In the twentieth year, you decided to break the pattern. Since other local cultivators were also robbing Immortal ves, you thought that asionally doing the same shouldn''t attract too much attention. So you struck again, robbing several Immortal ves and obtaining a few thousand spirit stones. In the twenty-first year, you used the spirit stones to cultivate for a year. In the following years, whenever you ran out of spirit stones, you would "borrow" some from low-level Immortal ves and then hide to cultivate. This cycle repeated, and in the blink of an eye, several decades passed. With the Eye of Insight and the Breath Concealing Talisman, you always disguised yourself as a mortal, scouting carefully before striking decisively, rarely encountering any idents. Of course, rarely didn''t mean never. There were unexpected situations. The most dangerous time was when you were in the middle of an operation, and a Nascent Soul stage expert from the Immortal Arrival Sect happened to pass by. A Nascent Soul stage expert could cover dozens of miles in an instant. You used a Teleportation Jade te once but didn''tpletely escape, as he caught up. In the end, you had to activate the teleportation array disk twice in session topletely evade his sight and escape. Chapter 41: Jiang Yifeng who knows how to comfort himself [Year 35, while you were refining your Golden Core, you triggered a random enlightenment due to your talent, entering a state of epiphany, and your cultivation speed increased tenfold.] [In this state of enlightenment, you continuously refined your Golden Core.] [Looking at the scene within your Qi Sea, with the Golden Core, spiritual energy, and dragon essence all distinct, your thoughts surged.] [An idea struck you: since a Tenth Grade Golden Core requires fortuitous encounters, could dragon essence be considered one?] [Instinctively, you tried to mobilize the dragon essence to refine your Golden Core.] [However, you couldn''t control the dragon essence within your Qi Sea.] [But this didn''t deter you. You manipted the spiritual energy, continuouslypressing the space around the dragon essence.] [Gradually, the dragon essence moved closer to the Golden Core.] [Ten days passed in the blink of an eye, and you finally managed to press the dragon essence against the Golden Core.][Soon, a change urred. You saw the dragon essence adhere directly to the Golden Core.] [Then it gradually merged into the Golden Core and disappeared.] [In the end, you saw a faint dragon pattern appear on the Golden Core.] [At this moment, your state of enlightenment ended.] [Looking at the emerging tenth pattern on the Golden Core, you were overjoyed.] [This enlightenment brought tremendous gains.] [Previously, you were mindlessly refining without seeing any progress, but now, one enlightenment brought such significant results.] [You couldn''t help but love this talent!] [And now you knew the path ahead.] [Year 37, you set off for the Desert of Death.] [Year 39, you arrived at the oasis within the Desert of Death.] [Year 43, you watched the sky every day, waiting for the Demonic Dragon to emerge.] [One day, you felt the desert rumble and saw the Demonic Dragon soar into the sky.] [Without hesitation, you rushed towards the Demonic Dragon''sir.] [Two hourster, you reached the entrance of the Demonic Dragon''sir.] [You nced at the distance where the Demonic Dragon was battling your father, Jiang Fushan. It seemed the fight wouldn''t end quickly.] [So, without hesitation, you leaped into the Demonic Dragon''sir.] [Once inside, you recalled the information you obtained from a previous simtion: the southwest corner.] [After determining the direction, you headed straight for the southwest corner.] [Then you began smashing the golden rock wall.] [With your current cultivation far surpassing before, it didn''t take long to create a face-sized hole in the thick rock wall.] [Through the hole, you could see a secret chamber inside, with a giant dragon egg in the center.] [At this moment, you heard the anxious dragon roar from outside.] [You didn''t ck off, increasing the force of your blows.] [In just a few minutes, you created a dog-sized hole in the rock wall.] [Ignoring aesthetics, you squeezed through the hole.] [Without pausing to observe, you headed straight for the dragon egg.] [Time was tight, and you had no intention of roasting the dragon egg this time.] [You took out the prepared hammer and smashed the dragon egg, then buried your head in it, gulping down the contents.] [Consuming the dragon egg was a decision you made after your enlightenment.] [Since the tenth Golden Core pattern was formed by dragon essence and was still faint, you thought it might be due to insufficient dragon essence.] [Thus, this scene unfolded.] [Time ticked by.] [You felt your body''s strength continuously increasing.] [Soon, your Martial Dao cultivation broke through to the second level of the Qi Motion Realm, but it didn''t stop there and continued to grow.] [Meanwhile, dragon essence surged within your Qi Sea.] [Unlikest time, the dragon essence didn''t stop at the side of the Qi Sea but headed straight for the Golden Core.] [Gradually, the tenth pattern on the Golden Core became clearer.] [Outside, the Demonic Dragon''s roars grew louder.] [You ignored it, focusing solely on consuming the egg.] [Three minutester, you felt a tremor, and the rock wall copsed.] [A Great Ascension stage ck python appeared and swallowed you whole.] [You died at the age of 63!] [This simtion has ended.] [You can choose two rewards from this simtion: Random Enlightenment (Talent), Wind Chasing Art Body Techniques (Minor Achievement), Martial Dao Cultivation (Third Level of Qi Motion Realm), Immortal Dao Cultivation (Perfect Foundation Establishment).] [Random Enlightenment (Talent)]: Costs 1 million Energy Value. [Wind Chasing Art Body Techniques (Minor Achievement)]: Costs 1 million Energy Value; (Note: Techniques are divided into Entry, Minor Achievement, Major Achievement, Peak, and Perfection.) [Martial Dao Cultivation (Third Level of Qi Motion Realm)]: Costs 10 million Energy Value. [Immortal Dao Cultivation (Perfect Foundation Establishment)]: Costs 100 million Energy Value. (Tenth Grade Golden Core, cumtive refining time increased to 95 years.) Jiang Yifeng looked at the end of the simtion, feeling a bit regretful. He didn''t expect to be killed by a demonic python in the end. However, he understood that the Demonic Dragon was likely dyed by his father Jiang Fushan''s battle, and then used its roars to summon the demonic python.N?v(el)B\\jnn After all, the Demonic Dragon had roared many times during the simtion. But when Jiang Yifeng saw the simtion rewards, a smile appeared on his lips. He had finally achieved the Tenth Grade Golden Core. But why wasn''t the reward directlybeled "Tenth Grade Golden Core"? Why add the refining time? What did it mean? Could the Tenth Grade be further improved? No matter, he decided to im the rewards first. "I choose Random Enlightenment and Immortal Dao Cultivation." [Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining Random Enlightenment (Talent), deducting 1 million Energy Value, remaining Energy Value: 11.2 billion...] [Ding, Immortal Dao Cultivation extracted sessfully, deducting 100 million Energy Value, remaining Energy Value: 11.1 billion.] As soon as the simtor''s voice fell. Jiang Yifeng sensed changes within his Qi Sea. All the dragon essence in his Qi Sea surged into the Golden Core. Then, more dragon essence appeared out of thin air, continuously perfecting the tenth pattern on the Golden Core. A few minutester, the tenth pattern on the Golden Core was fully formed. However, Jiang Yifeng''s expression was not good. He suspected something was wrong. The Golden Core in Jiang Yifeng''s eyes now had nine patterns neatly arranged. They were orderly and connected end to end. Although they were individual patterns, they were also integrated, resembling a spiral. But the tenth pattern was far apart from the other nine. Jiang Yifeng wanted to ask. "Are you shy?" Having read Bai Ruoxue''s "Annotations on Cultivation Knowledge," Jiang Yifeng wasn''t entirely a novice in cultivation. He knew that the patterns on the Golden Core needed to be integrated to be effective. Because breaking through the Core Formation stage required connecting the spiritual energy bridge to the patterns on the Golden Core. Each time spiritual energy was absorbed, it would pass through these patterns before entering the Qi Sea. These patterns were like a special circuit. If they weren''t connected, the quality of the refined Golden Core would be meaningless. In his current state, although it was called a Tenth Grade Golden Core, it was effectively still a Ninth Grade. At this moment, Jiang Yifeng finally understood why the simtor''s reward included the cumtive refining time. He muttered bitterly. "Well, if I refine an Eleventh Grade Golden Core, the future potential will be higher. Who has seen that before?" Jiang Yifeng knew how to console himself. But on second thought, if he could use a new Golden Core pattern to connect the separated patterns, it might indeed be a great thing. Chapter 42: Truly a talent for harming others for one’s own benefit Time flew by, and a week passed in the blink of an eye. During this time, Jiang Yifeng continued to spend his days idly at the Pleasure House, listening to music. Now that the simtion count had refreshed, he immediately returned to his room to start a new round of simtion. He murmured softly. "Start simtion." [Simtion count -1, remaining count 0] [Drawing a Blue Talent costs 100,000 Energy Value, drawing a Purple Talent costs 1,000,000 Energy Value. Please choose!] "Draw a Purple Talent." [Ding, 1,000,000 Energy Value deducted. Drawing Purple Talent. Remaining Energy Value: 11.1 billion...][Congrattions, Host has acquired the talent: Cmity Body.] [Cmity Body]: People or objects around you will always suffer from unforeseen disasters, but your vitality is tenacious and your cultivation speed is doubled. After reading the talent he drew, Jiang Yifeng found it hard to evaluate. Good? It was beneficial for cultivation, but the bacsh seemed quite troublesome. With this talent, his family and friends would likely suffer. It was truly a talent that benefited oneself at the expense of others. Jiang Yifeng pondered whether to extract this talent as a reward after the simtion. He couldn''t decide just yet. He wanted to see how severe these unforeseen disasters could be. If they were within a tolerable range, he could ept this talent. So, he looked at the development in the simtor.N?v(el)B\\jnn [14th simtion begins.] [You quickly realize you are in the simtion.] [This time, you don''t rush to leave the Jiang Family Mansion.] [You want to see how severe the aftereffects of the Cmity Body are.] [On the first day, your maid Little Peach brings you hot water for washing. She trips over the threshold and gets scalded by the hot water.] [On the second day, a patrol of guards passes by your courtyard. The wall of your courtyard suddenly copses, injuring three guards.] [On the third day, the steward Jiang Dafues with people to repair the courtyard wall. The wall copses again, and Jiang Dafu gets a head injury.] [On the fourth day, you hear that a batch of goods from the Jiang n Firm has issues, and they are selling off shops on arge scale to raise funds forpensation.] [On the fifth day, a poisonous snake sneaks into your father''s room while he sleeps, biting him and causing him to fall into aa from the poison.] [On the sixth day, you no longer dare to test it. The danger of the Cmity Body is more terrifying than you imagined.] [That night, you sneak into your father''s room and use spiritual energy to clear the snake venom.] [Then you leave Green Hills City under the cover of night.] [You worry that if you stay any longer, your talent''s aftereffects will ruin your entire family.] [On the eighth day, you arrive at the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple.] [On the ninth day, you clean up the ce as usual, burying all the bones in the ruins.] [Then you begin to cultivate alone.] [In the first year, you exhaust over 20,000 spirit stones.] [This is partly because your higher cultivation level allows you to absorb spirit stones faster, and partly because the Cmity Body talent enhances your cultivation speed, so you consume more resources.] [Of course, the effect of tempering your Golden Core this year is definitely stronger than before.] [Besides the change in cultivation speed, it''s worth mentioning that this year, you no longer need to go out hunting for food.] [Because after each cultivation session, you can find some injured animals nearby.] [For example, rabbits that ran into trees, birds with broken wings, or beasts crushed by falling trees.] [You know these animals are affected by your Cmity Body.] [They probably got too close to you and suffered some unforeseen disaster.] [So you can only wipe your mouth and put them on the grill, making their lives more vorful.] [In the second year, without spirit stones, your cultivation efficiency slows down.] [Still, many animals suffer from unforeseen disasters this year.] [Besides animals and nts, you notice other things around you seem to change as well.] [You feel the flowers, grass, and trees around you seem to wither.] [You can only apologize in your heart and continue cultivating.] [In the third year, the area around the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple is devoid of life.] [Everywhere is yellowing weeds, even the towering trees have withered, many inexplicably broken in half.] [You look at the situation, feeling bitter.] [You know Bai Ruoxue, the "ATM," will arrive soon. If she sees this ce like this, will you still be able to get any benefits from her?] [You are unsure, so you try to clean up the yellowing weeds and broken trees.] [One day, Bai Ruoxue suddenly arrives.] [You are still busy cleaning the withered and broken towering trees, not noticing her arrival.] [Bai Ruoxue sees you but doesn''t pay much attention.] [She looks more at the surrounding environment, her expression sorrowful.] [She remembers sneaking here when her senior brother was still around.] [Back then, this ce was lush and green, surrounded by towering trees.] [But now, it''s lifeless.] [Bai Ruoxue doesn''t know this is all caused by your Cmity Body. She thinks it''s all due to Heavenly Thunder.] [After a brief moment of sorrow, Bai Ruoxue grabs you and asks your identity. You answer truthfully.] [Finally, Bai Ruoxue examines you inside and out.] [When she examines your Golden Core, she looks at you as if she''s seen a ghost, her expression incredulous.] [Bai Ruoxue feels your current situation challenges her understanding.] [She wants to ask you: A Ten-Grade Golden Core, with unconnected patterns, who taught you to cultivate like this!] [But despite her doubts, Bai Ruoxue''s eyes show excitement.] [She is almost certain you are not from the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [And she has already seen through your bone age of twenty. At such an age, you have a Ten-Grade Golden Core.] [Although it''s cultivated wrong, if you can be saved, you might break history and be the unique Eleven-Grade Golden Core.] [In Bai Ruoxue''s eyes, you are now an unpolished gem.] [She secretly decides to support you and help you grow quickly.] [If you can achieve an Eleven-Grade Golden Core, once you grow, she believes you might surpass Mo Jingtian, who broke this sealednd millions of years ago.] [Then, to escape this sealednd, you will surely confront the immortals in the sky.] [In this way, her senior brother''s revenge might be avenged.] [Bai Ruoxue is already lost in her own thoughts.] [But soon, Bai Ruoxue''s face darkens, and she throws you aside.] Chapter 43: Phoenix’s cry Bai Ruoxue discovered your Cmity Physique during her investigation. She was terrified, as the Cmity Physique was a legendary constitution. ording to records, wherever a Cmity Physique appeared, disaster would follow. The only one unaffected by this constitution was the person who possessed it; anyone or anything else that came near would meet a tragic end. She was contemting whether to kill you. But she quickly shook her head, knowing she couldn''t afford to provoke you. ording to the records, those who killed a Cmity Physique met terrible fates. In an instant, Bai Ruoxue disappeared, choosing to leave. You were puzzled, not understanding what had happened. Usually, she would stay for three days, but this time she left in less than an hour.Of course, you were more concerned about why she didn''t leave you any Spirit Stones this time. You muttered under your breath, "So stingy." Since Bai Ruoxue had already left, you also nned to leave. A day passed, and you gathered a lot of food, preparing to depart. But just then, a figure in white suddenly appeared. You were delighted, thinking Bai Ruoxue had returned. You wondered if she had forgotten to give you resources and came back to make up for it. Before you could speak, Bai Ruoxue flicked her sleeve, binding you and then disappearing with you in an instant. You felt a rapid movement, your ears ringing, and your eyes unable to open. You seemed to sense the wind, triggering a Random Enlightenment, increasing your cultivation speed fivefold and making your thoughts more active. At this moment, you emptied your mind, fully immersing yourself in the sensation of the wind rushing past during the high-speed flight. Quickly, your Wind Chasing Art broke through continuously, advancing from the novice stage to the minor aplishment stage. Bai Ruoxue noticed your changes. She looked at you with aplex expression, sighing inwardly: "He''s enlightened. If only he didn''t have the Cmity Physique, what a talent he would be." Half a dayter, the sensation of rapid movement disappeared, and your state of enlightenment ended. You sighed inwardly, feeling it was a pity. This enlightenment was clearly more effective than previous simtions.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om You realized that the environment was also an important factor in cultivation. If it hadsted longer, you might have made more progress. But such opportunities were rare, requiring both high-speed flight and the triggering of Random Enlightenment. You stopped thinking about enlightenment and slowly opened your eyes, wanting to see what Bai Ruoxue was up to. Where had she taken you? But when you opened your eyes, Bai Ruoxue was nowhere to be seen. You looked around and found a storage ring. You understood that Bai Ruoxue had truly left this time. Excited, you opened the storage ring, but your joy quickly faded. You found no Spirit Stones inside, only some food. You were puzzled, not understanding Bai Ruoxue''s intentions. Two hourster, you looked up at the sky and understood Bai Ruoxue''s purpose. You realized you were trapped; no matter how you walked, you always returned to the same spot after two hours. You knew it must be a Formation trapping you. You smiled bitterly, thinking Bai Ruoxue left you so much food to prevent you from starving. Locking you up and giving you ample food, what was she nning? You cursed Bai Ruoxue and her entire family in your heart. For the next half month, you searched for a way out but made no progress. Eventually, you gave up, deciding to settle down and cultivate here. After all, cultivation was the same anywhere; you justcked Spirit Stones, so your progress would be slower. By the fourth year, you hadpletely stabilized your mindset, fully dedicating yourself to cultivation. In the fifth year, you made some progress in your body techniques. In the sixth year, you heard a cracking sound, and the Formation trapping you inexplicably shattered. You were overjoyed, shouting, "Cmity Physique is awesome!" But as you prepared to leave, another unexpected event urred. You found another Formation outside the first one. You cursed Bai Ruoxue again in your heart. By now, you had some guesses. You figured Bai Ruoxue must have seen through your constitution. So she trapped you here, isting you from the world to prevent you from harming others. You could only say she was a good person, but you felt it was unfair to you. In the seventh year, you calmed your restless mind and focused on cultivation. In the ninth year, while cultivating, you seemed to hear a phoenix''s cry, thinking it was an illusion and not paying much attention. In the tenth year, the second Formation trapping you began to crack. But by then, you had figured it out. You thought that if Bai Ruoxue wanted to trap you, she must know the power of the Cmity Physique. So, you assumed there were many more Formations waiting for you outside this one. You remained unmoved, continuing to cultivate diligently. Years passed in the blink of an eye. In the twentieth year, you heard the phoenix''s cry again, this time confirming it wasn''t an illusion. The sound seemed pained. You were curious about where Bai Ruoxue had taken you and why you could hear a phoenix''s cry. In the twenty-third year, while refining your Golden Core, you triggered a Random Enlightenment, increasing your cultivation efficiency sevenfold. This enlightenmentsted for half a year, significantly improving your Golden Core refinement efficiency. In the twenty-sixth year, you heard the sorrowful cry of the phoenix again. In the thirtieth year, you heard the phoenix''s cry once more, sounding even more tragic. In the following years, you heard the phoenix''s cry more frequently. Sometimes, you heard it several times in a single year. By the forty-third year, you suddenly saw many cultivators in the sky. You were puzzled, remembering that this year, the local cultivators should be heading to the Desert of Death to fight the Demonic Dragon, trying to break out of the sealed Southern Regions. Could this be the Desert of Death? But it didn''t seem right. Even if you hadn''t been to the Desert of Death in previous simtions, a desert should look like a desert! Even if the environment had been altered by the Formation, now that you could see cultivators, the Formation should havepletely disappeared. So, what you saw must be real. But you saw no signs of a desert. As you pondered, a phoenix''s cry echoed, "Yin!" You saw a huge, bald "chicken" appear in the sky. Chapter 44: Escape from the Sealed Land of the Southern Regions At this moment, you see a figure in a green robe appear, engaging in battle with that strange bird. You are even more bewildered¡ª isn''t that green-robed figure your father, Jiang Fushan? What''s going on? How did everything suddenly change? In the forty-third year, wasn''t Father supposed to be fighting the Demonic Dragon? How did it turn into a battle with a phoenix that looks like a "grass chicken"? You start to suspect that you might have entered an illusion. Soon, an old man appears before you. Using your Eye of Insight, you discover that he is Old Li, the one who answered many of your questions in thest simtion. He sees through your identity as a cultivator. He tells you to quickly escape with everyone else. You inquire about the current situation. He exins that ahead is the Valley of mes, but for some unknown reason, the mes here began to gradually extinguish decades ago.Upon receiving this news, they realized that something must have happened to the fierce beast guarding this ce. This time, due to certain reasons, they had to flee the Southern Regions and chose this ce as their breakthrough point. After hearing Old Li''s exnation, you can''t help but twitch your lips. You feel incredibly lucky to have been cultivating in front of the Valley of mes for decades. As for the extinguished mes, you suspect it has something to do with your Cmity Physique. After all, over the years, you were probably the only one trapped in this wretched ce. At this moment, you feel a sense of realization¡ªperhaps Bai Ruoxue did this on purpose! Maybe she intended to use your Cmity Physique to deal with this fierce beast. As for the reason, you have no idea. It could be a personal grudge, or simply to vent her anger. After all, you know Bai Ruoxue harbors resentment towards the Immortal Arrival Sect and even the immortals in the heavens, so she must also despise these guardian beasts. She doesn''t dare to take action directly, so using your Cmity Physique to disgust these beasts seems usible. Knowing the general situation, you don''t flee with Old Li but let him go first. You are aware of the terrifying extent of your Cmity Physique. You think that if you escape with them, even if the beast is in trouble, they probably won''t be able to escape either. Old Li just gives you a nce and then leaves with the other lower-level cultivators. After all, you were mere acquaintances; the fact that he warned you and answered your questions was already very kind. Naturally, he wouldn''t force you to escape with him. Moreover, he needs to take more lower-level cultivators on the road, and without you, he can take another cultivator. You nce at the battle in the sky; that phoenix, which looks like a "grass chicken," is being beaten down by your father, Jiang Fushan. The other cultivators are flying towards the depths of the Valley of mes without encountering any obstacles. It seems that the Valley of mes doesn''t have demonic beasts like the Demonic Pythons in the Desert of Death. This leaves you puzzled as to why, in the previous simtion, your father Jiang Fushan and the other cultivators chose the Desert of Death as their breakthrough point. The Valley of mes clearly seems easier! What you don''t know is that this is all due to your Cmity Physique. In terms ofbat power, the Demonic Dragon and the "grass chicken" phoenix are actually quite simr. The phoenix you see now is weakened because of your Cmity Physique, causing its feathers to inexplicably fall off. Because of this, it is far from its peak condition. As for theck of other demonic beasts in the Valley of mes, it''s because they aren''t needed¡ªthe Phoenix me itself is the strongest barrier, and ordinary cultivators can''t traverse the mes. However, the original barrier was extinguished because of your Cmity Physique. Unaware of these details, you subconsciously think this is an easier breakthrough point and fall into confusion. You don''t think too much about it; this is a rare opportunity, and you decide to see if you can escape the Southern Regions. If you can truly get out, the simtion time will surely be extended significantly. You head towards the depths of the Valley of mes, encountering no danger along the way. Half a dayter, you hear the long cry of the phoenix, and that "grass chicken" phoenix falls. Shortly after, you feel someone grab you. Turning your head, you see it''s your father, Jiang Fushan. He is heavily injured. Using your Eye of Insight, you can see that your father Jiang Fushan''s cultivation level has even dropped to the Seventh Layer of Tribtion. Earlier, when he was fighting the fierce beast, you checked and saw he was at the peak of the Eighth Layer of Tribtion. After grabbing you, your father Jiang Fushan doesn''t ask how you appeared here; he just holds your hand and flies rapidly. Knowing time is tight, you don''t say much either. A dayter, you see a barrier with a deep crack on it. You know this must be the formation that encloses the Southern Regions, and that crack should be the gateway created millions of years ago by Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya. You feel a bit excited, finally about to leave this sealednd! "Boom, boom," the sound of Heavenly Thunder suddenly rings out. Your father Jiang Fushan smiles at you and throws you towards the crack. Then you see him ascend, heading towards the Heavenly Thunder. Tears stream down your face; you understand he is intercepting the Heavenly Thunder to protect you. When yound, you find yourself in a strange environment. You know this is already outside the Southern Regions.N?v(el)B\\jnn You wait there for half a day, but when your father Jiang Fushan doesn''te out, you know the situation is grim. So you leave quickly, not staying there any longer. This is just outside the formation; you''re not sure if it''spletely safe. In the forty-fifth year, it''s been nearly two years since you escaped the Southern Regions. During this time, you''ve been on the road. You want to see what the outside world is like, but for two whole years, you haven''t seen any signs of human habitation. In the forty-eighth year, you finallye across a small vige. You enter the vige and ask around, wanting to know where you are. Unfortunately, this is just an ordinary vige; the vigers are not very knowledgeable, and most have never left the vige. Only a well-traveled old vige chief tells you that this ce is called the Great Wilderness. As for what the Great Wilderness is and where it is in the Nine Mystic Realm, the old vige chief doesn''t know. He only says that the name "Great Wilderness" was passed down from the previous vige chief. After staying in the vige for a day, you bid farewell and leave. After a long journey, you originally wanted to stay in the vige for a couple more days. But your Cmity Physique is truly terrifying; in just one day, many poultry in the vige died, and a few vigers were inexplicably injured. You couldn''t bear to see such a simple vige suffer because of your talent. Chapter 45: Wildlands Sect Assassination [Year 49, you encountered arge tribe and learned from them that the Great Wilderness is a desert connecting several major regions.] [Its area is evenparable to the total of all the major regionsbined.] [You learned from this tribe that leaving the Great Wilderness to reach other regions is not something that can be aplished in a short time.] [So, you stopped your journey, chose a secluded spot, and built a residence to focus on your cultivation.] [You thought that since it would take too much time, you might as well give up for now. After all, improving your strength is the most important thing.] [You didn''t want to waste the simtion time you earned by escaping from the Southern Regions.] [Year 50, you worked hard on your cultivation and made some progress.] [Year 60, you continued to cultivate diligently.] [Year 70, after decades of persistence, your Wind Chasing Art finally reached the Great Aplishment stage.][At this point, when you activated the Wind Chasing Art, you moved like the wind, your speed increasing several times.] [Year 100, while refining your Golden Core, you triggered a random enlightenment, increasing your cultivation speed tenfold and making your thoughts more active.] [This enlightenmentsted for half a year.] [When the enlightenment ended, you discovered that your Golden Core had finally developed a faint new pattern.] [Although the pattern was not yet clear, you could roughly see that it connected the nine upper patterns with the dragon pattern at the bottom, just as you had imagined.] [This made you extremely excited.] [With a clear hope in sight, you became even more motivated and diligent in your cultivation.] [Year 120, you noticed that the eleven patterns on your Golden Core werepletely connected, although the newly appeared pattern was still not very clear.] [Year 138, your Eleven-Grade Golden Core was fully formed.] [Now you only needed to use spiritual energy to build a bridge between heaven and earth, connecting your meridians with the Golden Core, to break through to the Core Formation stage.] [You would be the first ever to reach the Core Formation stage with an Eleven-Grade Golden Core. Thinking of this, youughed out loud: "Who else canpare?"] [You prepared to make a breakthrough in one go to the Core Formation stage.] [You began to continuously absorb spiritual energy, preparing to build the bridge between heaven and earth.] [As you built the bridge, various phenomena started to appear in the sky.] [High above you, several elders in the Tribtion Crossing stage saw the phenomena and their expressions changed.] [They knew you were preparing to break through, and themotion clearly indicated that you had refined a high-quality Golden Core.] [One of the elders in the Tribtion Crossing stage sighed and said to the others: "I''ll take care of it!"] [Not long after, as you were building the bridge to break through, you saw a giant seal descending from the sky, aiming to crush you.] [You didn''t know what was happening, but you knew someone was attacking you.] [You didn''t have time to think and immediately activated the Teleportation Jade te to escape, but this time the teleportation failed.] [After activating the Teleportation Jade te, you weren''t teleported away, as if the surrounding space had been sealed.] [Your feeling was correct; this attack was not a coincidence but a premeditated assault, with the area around you already sealed off.] [You didn''t know that during your nearly hundred years of cultivation here, the cmities caused by your Cmity Physique had brought great disasters to the surrounding thousands of miles.] [This situation had long been reported to the Wilnds Sect in the Great Wilderness.] [You had been under the surveince of the Wilnds Sect for a long time, with all your actions monitored.] [If not for the ancient texts recording that those who killed someone with the Cmity Physique would meet a bad end, the people of the Wilnds Sect would have acted long ago, and you wouldn''t have survived.] [But now, your breakthrough attempt made the elder feel that he couldn''t wait any longer. The higher the cultivation level of the Cmity Physique, the greater the range of its disaster effects.] [As a righteous sect, the Wilnds Sect couldn''t allow the Cmity Physique to grow, or the entire Nine Mystic Realm would suffer.] [In an instant, the giant seal descended. Even though you had the Cmity Physique and were resilient, you had no hope of surviving an attack from the Tribtion Crossing stage.] [You died at the age of 158!] [This simtion has ended.] [You can choose two rewards from this simtion: Cmity Physique (Talent), Wind Chasing Art (Great Aplishment), Cultivation Level (Perfect Foundation Establishment).] [Cmity Physique (Talent)]: Price 1 million energy value. [Wind Chasing Art (Great Aplishment)]: Price 20 million energy value. [Cultivation Level (Perfect Foundation Establishment)]: Price 100 million energy value. (Note: Includes Eleven-Grade Golden Core.) "What a pity!" Jiang Yifeng sighed inwardly. This simtion had actuallysted quite long. But Jiang Yifeng knew it could havested even longer if not for the Cmity Physique. He was eliminated by those righteous cultivators. This made Jiang Yifeng quite frustrated. He hadn''t done anything evil; it was all because of his talent. Why did they have to kill him? Of course, he was just venting. He knew how detestable this talent was. But looking at the rewards from this simtion, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but smile. An Eleven-Grade Golden Core. Although he hadn''t broken through to the Core Formation stage, there was still time for that next time. The hardest part was over. Jiang Yifeng roughly calcted that just refining the Golden Core had taken him three or four simtion attempts. The total time spent had already exceeded 200 years. He had experienced enlightenment, used spirit stones to elerate, and had some fortuitous encounters. Considering all this, it was no wonder that someone who could refine a Ten-Grade Golden Core during the Foundation Establishment stage only appeared once in millions of years. After all, the lifespan during the Foundation Establishment stage was only 300 years, and one had to subtract the time spent in early cultivation and reserve the golden period for breaking through to higher realms. There wasn''t much time left to refine the Golden Core. Although Jiang Yifeng had an Eleven-Grade Golden Core, he knew that most of his time was spent refining the tenth pattern. The dragon pattern on the Golden Core was, to be precise, a stroke of luck. So, the actual time he spent refining the Golden Core was only enough to produce a Ten-Grade Golden Core. Without further thought, Jiang Yifeng made his reward selection. "I choose Cultivation Level and Wind Chasing Art (Great Aplishment)." Although the Cmity Physique talent had helped him escape the Southern Regions, Jiang Yifeng still didn''t choose it.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om In the simtion, it didn''t matter much, but in reality, Jiang Yifeng felt he couldn''t handle it. If he took it, it would easily expose him and harm his friends and family, even everyone around him. Jiang Yifeng didn''t want to end up alone in the world after many years. [Ding, Cultivation Level extracted sessfully, deducting 100 million energy value, remaining energy value 11 billion...] [Ding, Wind Chasing Art (Great Aplishment) extracted sessfully, deducting 20 million energy value, remaining energy value 11 billion...] Soon, Jiang Yifeng felt the changes in himself. Before long, the eleventh pattern appeared on the Golden Core in his Qi Sea. As for the Wind Chasing Art (Great Aplishment), Jiang Yifeng couldn''t immediately feel the improvement; he estimated he would only sense it when he used the body technique. With everything done, Jiang Yifeng saw that it was already bright outside. He stretched and walked out, muttering to himself: "Another beautiful day." As expected, he went to the Pleasure House to listen to music again. Chapter 46: Strange Phenomena in Heaven and Earth A weekter. Jiang Yifeng had shut his door early, waiting inside his room. Soon, the simtor''s attempts refreshed. This time, he was certain he could break through to the Core Formation stage, and he was already impatient. As soon as the simtion attempts increased, he silently chanted. "Start the simtion!" [Consumed 1 simtion attempt, remaining attempts: 0] [Drawing Blue Talent consumes 100,000 Energy Value, drawing Purple Talent consumes 1,000,000 Energy Value. Please choose!] "Draw Purple Talent."[Ding, 1,000,000 Energy Value deducted, drawing Purple Talent. Remaining Energy Value: 11 billion...] [Congrattions, you have obtained Purple Talent: Formation Dao Genius.] [Formation Dao Genius]: You are a peerless genius in the art of formations. You always have unique insights and can easily draw inferences from one instance to another. "This talent is not bad!" Jiang Yifeng''s eyes brightened slightly. In previous simtions, he had been saved multiple times by teleportation array disks, which were also a type of formation. Of course, the most crucial point was that the Southern Regions were sealed off by a massive formation. Jiang Yifeng thought, if he could master formations to the extreme. Could he avoid facing those fierce beasts and directly open another gap in the formation to escape the Southern Regions? He felt it was worth a try in the simtion. After all, he no longer had the Cmity Physique. Escaping the sealednd of the Southern Regions was quite urgent. Only by leaving here could he have more simtion time. Only then could he quickly enhance his strength. However, in reality, unless absolutely necessary, he would not reveal even a hint of his cultivation. With a n in mind, Jiang Yifeng continued to look at the simtor. [15th simtion begins.] [You realize you have started the simtion.] [On the first day, you left Green Hills City under the cover of darkness.] [On the second day, you arrived at the ruins of Heavenly Profound Temple in the Evergreen Mountain Range.] [This time, you used the Wind Chasing Art to travel, covering three to four thousand kilometers in just one day.] [This was even with you controlling your speed to avoid excessive consumption, otherwise, you could have gone faster.] [On the third day, you cleared the ruins of Heavenly Profound Temple and buried the skeletons.] [On the fourth day, you began to wander around, scouting the area within a few hundred miles to ensure safety.] [You are preparing for the Core Formation breakthrough.] [After all, in thest simtion, although you didn''t seed in breaking through, you learned that an anomaly would appear when you did.] [You don''t know how far this anomaly can spread, nor if this method canpletely avoid being discovered by the Immortal ves.] [But you think that as long as the area within a few hundred miles is safe, there shouldn''t be much of a problem.] [Based on your estimation, breaking through to the Core Formation stage won''t take much time.] [As long as the anomaly disappears after the breakthrough, it will be safe.] [On the tenth day, you returned to the ruins of Heavenly Profound Temple.] [Over the past few days, you confirmed that there were no signs of human activity within a few hundred miles. You felt it was safe to start the breakthrough.] [On the eleventh day, you held a spirit stone, sat cross-legged, and began absorbing spiritual energy to build the bridge between heaven and earth.] [As the spiritual energy entered your body, you continuously manipted it to connect the meridians from the patterns on the Golden Core.] [At this moment, the sky began to change, with the shadow of a true dragon soaring into the air, followed by a true phoenix spreading its wings.] [From a distance, it looked like a scene of dragons and phoenixes singing in harmony.] [But that was not the end. As you continued to perfect the bridge between heaven and earth, the dragon and phoenix scene faded away.] [But this was just the beginning of the anomalies.] [Various anomalies continued to appear frequently.] [The anomalies stretched across the sky, visible for miles; your original n for safety was destined to fail.] [At this moment, the anomalies could be seen throughout the entire Southern Regions.] [The Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect had already begun to gather, heading towards your location.] [Even the sect master of the Immortal Arrival Sect, Shen Wuyou, who was at the sixth level of Tribtion Crossing, personally came.] [Of course, you were unaware of these events.] [At this moment, you were still building the bridge between heaven and earth.] [The bridge between heaven and earth has two paths, and you finallypleted one, with the breakthrough in sight.] [But just as you finished building one bridge, an unexpected event urred.] [The unexpected event didn''te from the outside but from within you.] [You felt the primordial energy in your body surging uncontrobly towards the Golden Core through thepleted bridge.] [You were stunned. What was happening?] [You were clearly breaking through your Immortal Dao cultivation. You didn''t understand why the martial primordial energy was interfering.] [You didn''t know what would happen if it seeded, so you could only try your best to control it and stop it.] [Unfortunately, it was futile. The martial primordial energy went out of control, crazily pouring into the Golden Core.] [Gradually, you found that not only the martial primordial energy but also your spiritual energy was beyond your control.] [You were now like a bystander, watching the spiritual energy and primordial energy in your body operate on their own.] [As time passed, the situation in your body remained tense, and you couldn''t influence it.] [But outside, the anomalies in the sky changed again.] [A vague figure appeared in the sky, holding a giant axe, splitting the chaos. In an instant, the originally dark chaos was cleaved open, and light shone down.] [The anomaly of Pangu opening the heavens was unprecedented.] [After that, various anomalies such as the Chaos Golden Lotus and the Three Thousand Demon Gods appeared in session.] [Finally, only a golden shadow remained in the sky, somewhat resembling you but looking more majestic and grand.] [You didn''t pay attention to the external anomalies, still observing the changes in your Qi Sea.] [Under the autonomous operation of the martial primordial energy and spiritual energy, you witnessed an incredible scene.] [The martial primordial energy was engraving a pattern on the Golden Core, then intertwining with the spiritual energy to build the second bridge of the Heavenly Dao.] [You were both stunned and excited, not knowing what was happening.] [But you saw it, a Golden Core of twelve-grade quality!] [At this moment, you suddenly felt the ground shaking.] [You opened your eyes in confusion, a sense of foreboding rising in your heart.]n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om [You hadn''tpleted the breakthrough yet, and because the martial primordial energy and spiritual energy were operating autonomously, you couldn''t stop even if you wanted to.] [The key point was that you couldn''t mobilize any cultivation, just like a mortal; if danger came, you couldn''t even run.] [Soon, you saw arge number of Immortal ves fighting with a group of cultivators.] [The ground shaking was caused by their battle.] [This confused you even more.] [You had just scouted the area recently and found no signs of people.] [How did so many Immortal ves and cultivators suddenly appear?] [Judging by the scale, both sides had hundreds of people.] [While you were still in a daze, an old man with white hair appeared in front of you.] Chapter 47: Breakthrough, Divine Dao! [Although you can''t use your cultivation, the talent of the Eye of Insight is still avable, and with one nce, you discern his cultivation level and identity.] [You never expected this person to be Old Li, who is at the Seventh Layer of Tribtion Crossing.] [In previous simtions, you knew that Old Li generally wouldn''t leave Spine Mountain.] [He needs to protect the safety of the cultivators and their families on Spine Mountain.] [You are filled with questions, unable to understand the current situation.] [Old Li approaches you, looks at you with relief, and tells you to focus on your breakthrough. He and the other cultivators will ensure your safety, even if it means risking their lives.] [After saying this, Old Li performs a few hand seals, and a transparent light shield appears around you.] [Having done all this, Old Li vanishes from the spot and resumes his battle with Shen Wuyou, the Sect Master of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [After Old Li leaves, several cultivators arrive by your side, vigntly guarding the surroundings.][Watching all this, your mind is filled with thoughts. Why does it seem like Old Li and the others are here specifically to protect you?] [You feel utterly confused.] [But since Old Li has given his assurance, you feel that your safety shouldn''t be a major issue.] [From previous simtions, you can tell that Old Li genuinely cares about the ordinary cultivators of the Southern Regions.] [It is his presence that has ensured the survival of ordinary cultivators in the Southern Regions.] [If he weren''t so self-sacrificing, with his cultivation level, the Immortal Arrival Sect wouldn''t be able to do anything to him. He could do whatever he wanted, except leave the Southern Regions.] [From all this, you can see Old Li''s character, and you believe his promise.] [So, you calm your mind and focus on the changes in your Qi Sea.] [In fact, when the phenomenon appeared in the sky, it wasn''t just the Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect who took action.] [Old Li also immediately organized the cultivators of Spine Mountain toe.] [As someone who has lived for thousands of years at the Tribtion Crossing stage, Old Li knows a lot.] [When he saw the phenomenon, he immediately thought that someone had achieved a Ten-Grade Golden Core.] [Because the scene of dragon and phoenix cries you experienced was only recorded once a million years ago, when Mo Jingtian appeared.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [Your phenomenon gave him hope of leaving the Southern Regions.] [So he mobilized all the cultivators of Spine Mountain, determined to protect you.] [The battle outside continues, and your breakthrough is progressing slowly.] [The speed of this breakthrough is much slower than you expected.] [You know it might be because of the Primordial Energy mixed in with your Martial Dao.] [In the blink of an eye, half a day passes, and a surge of momentum bursts from your body as you sessfully break through to the Core Formation stage.] [When you open your eyes, you find Old Li waiting outside the transparent light shield.] [It''s clear that with Old Li around, those Immortal ves are no match and have retreated.] [Seeing your breakthrough, Old Li quickly tells you to follow him, as it''s still not safe.] [Though puzzled, you don''t argue and choose to trust him.] [Meanwhile, in a town thousands of miles away, a sea of blood has formed. Shen Wuyou and the other Immortal ves have ughtered everyone in the town.] [Shen Wuyou collects the blood from the entire town, sets up a newly built altar, and begins chanting iprehensible incantations.] [Soon, a cold voice emanates from the altar: "You use the blood sacrifice method to summon me. What do you want?"] [Shen Wuyou reports the matter of you possibly having a Ten-Grade Golden Core to the voice in the altar.] [After hearing Shen Wuyou''s report, the cold voice responds, "Hmph, this tiny ce really produces Chosen frequently. If it weren''t for the rules, I would have smashed this ce with a single p to save trouble."] [Shen Wuyou dares not speak. Shortly after, the voice from the altar says it will handle the matter.] [With those words, the altar shatters.] [Shen Wuyou finally breathes a sigh of relief, having passed on this hot potato.] [He has no desire to fight that old man named Li again.] [At this moment, you are being led by Old Li towards Spine Mountain.] [Old Li looks tense, constantly increasing his flying speed.] [This makes you feel that there really might be some danger.] [But what this danger is, you have no idea.] [Soon, you and Old Li see Spine Mountain.] [Only then does Old Li''s expression rx a bit.] [Seeing this, you think that perhaps Old Li has some trump card left here, and the danger will be less once you reach Spine Mountain!] [But just then, you see a sh of purple light in the sky.] ["Boom!" A massive thunderp echoes through the heavens and earth.] [Heavenly Thunder? The words sh through your mind.] [In an instant, the purple thunder strikes down, and Old Li fully exerts himself to shield you.] [Soon, you realize you were wrong.] [This is Heavenly Thunder, but also not Heavenly Thunder.] [Because its power is even stronger.] [Even with Old Li''s Seventh Layer of Tribtion Crossing cultivation, he is severely injured in an instant.] [Old Li looks at you and shouts, "Run! In the belly of Spine Mountain, there''s a formation. Hide in it, and you might survive."] [Then you see another purple thunderbolt strike Old Li, and he seems to be at the end of his strength, unable to get up.] [Seeing this, you feel a deep sorrow but dare not hesitate. You quickly activate the Wind Chasing Art and flee towards Spine Mountain at full speed.] [You understand that the formation Old Li mentioned might be the one left by the Formation Dao genius Lu Wuya, which you heard about in a previous simtion.] [It was that formation that allowed Old Li to survive for thousands of years without being killed by Heavenly Thunder.] [But how can your speedpare to Heavenly Thunder?] [Especially this time, the Heavenly Thunder is clearly targeting you and is even more powerful.] [A few secondster, you are struck by the purple thunder.] [You die at the age of 20.] [This simtion ends.] [You can choose two rewards from this simtion: Formation Dao Genius (Talent), Immortal Dao Cultivation (Core Formation stage), Divine Dao Cultivation (Core Formation stage)] [Formation Dao Genius (Talent): Price 1 million Energy Value.] [Immortal Dao Cultivation (Core Formation stage): Price 100 million Energy Value; achieved with a Ten-Grade Golden Core.] [Divine Dao Cultivation (Core Formation stage): Price 200 million Energy Value; achieved with a Twelve-Grade Golden Core, an ancient cultivation path that integrates Martial Dao and Immortal Dao.] (Note: In the early stages, Divine Dao levels are the same as Immortal Dao and Martial Dao, but spiritual energy and primordial energy can be converted, resulting in strongerbat power; however, breakthroughs are harder and require a very strong body.) This time, the simtion didn''t evenst a year. Jiang Yifeng didn''t expect this. He didn''t expect Shen Wuyou to be able tomunicate with celestial beings. Nor did he expect that just reporting his breakthrough to the Core Formation stage with a Ten-Grade Golden Core would attract the intervention of celestial beings. Moreover, the rewards from this simtion left Jiang Yifeng a bit bewildered. What''s going on? Why is there an additional Divine Dao? But after reading the description, Jiang Yifeng understood a bit. The Divine Dao is essentially dual cultivation of Immortal Dao and Martial Dao. However, it adds a condition that the Immortal Dao and Martial Dao cannot be too far apart, and a strong physique is required to break through. No need to overthink it; a bit more difficulty is fine as long as it''s strong enough. Just as Jiang Yifeng was about to choose his reward, he suddenly thought about the phenomenon that urred during his breakthrough to the Core Formation stage in the simtion. Would such a phenomenon ur in reality if he broke through? If a phenomenon appears in reality, wouldn''t that be the end of him? Chapter 48: Bai Ruoxues decision Jiang Yifeng was in distress when the electronic voice of the simtor sounded. "Ding, reminder to the host, this simtor can conceal breakthrough anomalies, requiring only 1 billion energy value." "Huh? The simtor has this function too!" Hearing this prompt from the simtor, Jiang Yifeng showed a look of surprise. Since that''s the case, there''s no need to hesitate. Jiang Yifeng made his choice directly. "I choose the talent of Formation Dao Genius and Divine Dao Cultivation." "Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining the talent of Formation Dao Genius, deducting 1 million energy value, remaining energy value 11 billion..." "Ding: Detecting the extraction of Divine Dao Cultivation, anomalies will ur, does the host wish to spend 1 billion energy value to conceal it?""Yes, conceal the anomaly!" Jiang Yifeng didn''t dare to dy and responded immediately. "The host chooses to conceal the breakthrough anomaly, deducting 1 billion energy value, remaining energy value 10 billion..." "Ding, Divine Dao Cultivation extractionplete, deducting 200 million energy value, remaining energy value 9.8 billion..." As the simtion rewards were collected, Jiang Yifeng immediately felt the primordial energy and spiritual energy within him start to circte on their own. Soon, the bridge between heaven and earth was built automatically, a twelve-grade Golden Core formed, and Jiang Yifeng officially became a Core Formation stage cultivator. Once at the Core Formation stage, one can fly through the air. Jiang Yifeng was now eager to go out and take a flight. But just as he reached the door, he sheepishly retreated. He kept reminding himself, "Stay calm, don''t be reckless, don''t be reckless." In the end, Jiang Yifeng convinced himself. He thought it was better to be cautious; exposing his cultivation in reality was too dangerous. It was better to continue acting as a yboy, not attracting attention. To experience the feeling of flying in reality, at the very least, he would have to wait until he became an immortal. No, he would have to be able to defeat that celestial being who sealed the Southern Regions. At this moment, the simtor''s prompt sounded again. "Ding, detecting the host stepping into Divine Dao, hidden achievementpleted, unlocking personal data panel." Jiang Yifeng was stunned, not expecting that stepping into Divine Dao would unlock a hidden achievement. Although he felt that the personal data panel wasn''t very useful at the moment, it could be helpful in the future when he had more talents and learned more techniques, allowing him to observe his strength changes more quickly. Jiang Yifeng roughly studied it and saw his personal information. "Host: Jiang Yifeng." "Talents: Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root, Eye of Insight, Random Enlightenment, Formation Dao Genius." "Divine Dao Cultivation: Core Formation Stage One (Immortal Dao), Qi Motion Realm Stage Three (Martial Dao)." "Mental Cultivation Method: Heavenly Profound Art." "Techniques: Wind Chasing Art (Mastered)." "Not bad, very strong." Jiang Yifeng nodded, satisfied. Then he headed towards the Spring Blossom Pavilion; it was time to listen to music, and he couldn''t dy. Time flowed like water. Soon, a week passed! Jiang Yifeng closed his door tightly and silently recited. "Start simtion!" "Consuming one simtion attempt, remaining attempts 0." "Extracting Blue Talent costs 100,000 energy value, extracting Purple Talent costs 1 million energy value, please choose!" "Extract Purple Talent." "Ding, deducting 1 million energy value, extracting Purple Talent, remaining energy value 9.8 billion..." "Congrattions to the host for obtaining the talent: Longevity of the Southern Mountain." "Longevity of the Southern Mountain: Your lifespan increases by 1,000 years." Looking at this new talent, Jiang Yifeng raised an eyebrow. It''s a good talent, but unfortunately, it''s useless to him. Whether in reality or in simtion, he nevercked lifespan. "Sigh!" With a sigh, Jiang Yifeng continued to look at the simtor. "The 16th simtion begins." "You realize you have entered the simtion." "This time, you still n to go to the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple first." "You n to wait there for Bai Ruoxue''s arrival." "After all, exploiting her is your main source of spirit stone resources in the simtion." "On the first day, you leave Green Hills City at night." "On the second day, you arrive at the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple." "On the third day, you clean up the ruins and bury the bones." "On the fourth day, you start cultivating peacefully, waiting for the ''ATM'' Bai Ruoxue to arrive." "In the blink of an eye, a year has passed, your spirit stones have long been exhausted, and your cultivation has slightly improved, nearing Core Formation Stage Two." "In the second year, without spirit stones, your cultivation speed slows down." "But you trigger a Random Enlightenment, gaining an 8x cultivation speed boost." "This enlightenmentsts for eleven days, during which you sessfully break through to Core Formation Stage Two." "In the third year, Bai Ruoxue arrives." "When she sees you, she asks who you are!" "You directly reveal your identity, not pretending to be a disciple of the Heavenly Profound Temple." "She doesn''t immediately believe you and checks you from head to toe." "During the inspection, she discovers your extraordinary twelve-grade Golden Core, looking at you as if you were a monster." "After a long silence, she asks if you are willing to be her disciple!" "Upon hearing this good news, you agree without hesitation." "For the next two days, Bai Ruoxue mourns her senior brother." "On the third day, Bai Ruoxue finds you and tells you about the Southern Regions being a sealednd." "Although you already knew, you listen carefully." "After exining the situation in the Southern Regions, she asks if you want to leave with her."N?v(el)B\\jnn "In fact, when Bai Ruoxue decided to take you as a disciple, she had already made up her mind to take you and break out of the Southern Regions." "Although she fears that celestial being, she had always seen no hope, but your potential gave her hope of defeating the celestial being." "As for whether you would confront the celestial being, she wasn''t worried, because you came from the Southern Regions, even if you didn''t seek out the celestial being, the celestial being would definitelye for you." "Because of this, she decided to take a gamble." "Upon hearing Bai Ruoxue''s invitation, you feel a bit excited." "As long as you leave the Southern Regions, your simtion duration would surely increase several times." "And this time, your talent increased your lifespan." "If you keep a low profile and live until natural death, how much improvement could you achieve! You can''t even imagine." "But soon, you calm down." "In previous simtions, you had seen your father Jiang Fushan break through the beast pass many times." "Except for the time when you had the Cmity Physique, causing the phoenix beast''s strength to drop significantly due to your talent." "He only won that time, but failed the other times." "At that time, Jiang Fushan''s realm was the same as Bai Ruoxue''s, both at the Eighth Layer of Tribtion." "Given this, can Bai Ruoxue really break out with you?" "Even if you don''t fight head-on and just escape, with you as a burden, it would still be very dangerous!" "After much thought, you finally grit your teeth and choose to leave with Bai Ruoxue." "You think, after all, it''s just a simtion, at worst, it''s an experiment. If it works, you''ll have another way to leave the Southern Regions in future simtions." "If it doesn''t work, at worst, you''ll die and try again next time!" Chapter 49: Not an ordinary tortoise Bai Ruoxue took you and flew southward. A few dayster, you could see a vast sea in the distance. At this moment, Bai Ruoxue''s expression had turned serious. You knew this meant you were nearing a dangerous beast. "Stop!" Suddenly, you heard a hoarse voice. Next, you saw a massive Mystic Turtle emerge from the sea. The voice came from the turtle itself.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om This was an eye-opener for you. In your previous simtions, you had encountered Demonic Dragons and Demonic Phoenixes, but none of them had ever spoken. Bai Ruoxue watched the turtle warily, then tossed a storage ring towards it and said politely, "Senior Turtle, please grant us passage."Seeing this, you felt a bit nervous. You could guess Bai Ruoxue''s intention; she was trying to bribe the Mystic Turtle. After all, you knew that Bai Ruoxue had bribed her way into the sealednd, where entry was forbidden. If she could use the same method to get you out, that would be ideal. But could it really be that simple? You remained skeptical. If bribery alone could get people out, many would have escaped the Southern Regions by now. Not only you, but Bai Ruoxue herself was unsure; this was her first time attempting this. She coulde and go because she was originally from the outside world. The celestial beings above didn''t monitor this ce daily. As long as she didn''t stay too long and gave the Mystic Turtle some benefits, it was mutually beneficial. But now she wanted to take you, a native of the Southern Regions, which was a different situation. The Mystic Turtle shook its head, took the storage ring, and inspected it. Then it stared at you and Bai Ruoxue, saying she could leave, but you could not. Hearing this, you sighed inwardly, knowing it wouldn''t be that simple. Bai Ruoxue also looked disappointed, but she quickly grabbed you, her aura changing. You felt a powerful energy surge from her; she was preparing to force her way through. At that moment, the Mystic Turtle unleashed an overwhelming aura far surpassing Bai Ruoxue''s. In an instant, you found it hard to breathe. Bai Ruoxue''s face grew increasingly grim. She hadn''t expected the Mystic Turtle to be so powerful, far beyond her estimation. Just its aura alone made it difficult for her to protect you. You used the Eye of Insight to check the Mystic Turtle''s realm. Seeing its realm, you instantly lost hope of escaping. The Mystic Turtle wasn''t in the Tribtion Crossing Realm but the Mystic Immortal Realm. Even though the Eye of Insight showed it was severely injured, the fact that it was an Immortal meant it was at least a celestial being. As for whether a Mystic Immortal was strong or weak among celestials, you didn''t know; your understanding of cultivation hadn''t reached that level. Regardless, this Mystic Turtle was not something Bai Ruoxue, an Eighth Layer of Tribtion cultivator, could resist. You were sure that even escaping would be difficult. Soon, you and Bai Ruoxue were immobilized by the Mystic Turtle''s pressure. The Mystic Turtle tilted its head and said, "Such impatience." Then it told Bai Ruoxue to bring ten billion Spirit Stones, and it would let you leave. Next, you saw the Mystic Turtle fling Bai Ruoxue away, crashing her into a formation crack in the sea, where she disappeared! You were still processing the Mystic Turtle''s words. What? The bribe actually worked! Though ten billion Spirit Stones was an enormous sum, it was indeed a way to leave the Southern Regions. This filled you with joy. But you couldn''t understand; wasn''t the sealing of the Southern Regions a decision by the celestial beings? How could the Mystic Turtle dare to do this? Was it stronger? That didn''t seem right either. If it were stronger, it wouldn''t be stationed here to guard the formation crack. As you pondered, the Mystic Turtle grabbed you. It said you were now its cargo and had to follow it, not leaving on your own. You didn''t dare say no, not that it would matter if you did. The Mystic Turtle forcibly took you away. Soon, you arrived at a small ind in the sea. After arriving, the Mystic Turtle ignored you and went to sleep beside the ind. A year passed, and the Mystic Turtle continued to sleep, not bothering you. But you didn''t dare act rashly, knowing that such a powerful being couldn''t be truly asleep. In the fifth year, you tried walking around and found that the Mystic Turtle didn''t stop you. This gave you a bit more courage. You began to wander around the ind daily. Besides that, you fished and caught shrimp by the shore. Of course, this was out of necessity. There was no spiritual energy here, not a trace. You couldn''t cultivate or absorb spiritual energy for inedia, so you needed ordinary food to fill your stomach. Time passed, and another five years went by. In the tenth year, the Mystic Turtle woke up. Seeing you fishing and hunting on the ind, it grabbed you. It stared at you intently. From its eyes, you sensed a look of disappointment! Suddenly, the Mystic Turtle said, "I didn''t expect someone who practices the Ancient Divine Dao to be such a useless fool!" The Mystic Turtle''s words left you even more confused. You thought to yourself, "Aren''t we enemies? Why would it be disappointed in me for cking off?" Of course, you knew things weren''t that simple. The Mystic Turtle exuded an aura of mystery. It knew about the Ancient Divine Dao and saw through you with just a nce. Moreover, its actions and cultivation were far beyond the Demonic Dragons and Demonic Phoenixes you had encountered in your simtions. Compared to them, its strength was immeasurable. It didn''t kill on sight, could trade, ept bribes, and even dared to defy the celestial beings'' orders. This made you feel that it was more than just a beast guarding the formation crack. Chapter 50: Precious Formation Jade Slip [Mystic Turtle saw that you didn''t dare to speak and let out a cold snort before soaring into the sky.] [It was only then that you noticed the massive iron chains shackling the Mystic Turtle.] [The chains were inscribed with patterns you couldn''t understand.] [The Mystic Turtle finally stopped keeping you in suspense.] [It told you that everyone here was a prisoner.] [It admitted that the im of ten billion Spirit Stones for your release was just to deceive Bai Ruoxue.] [No one from the Southern Regions could leave the Endless Sea, including itself.] [The formation gap here was merely a trap.] [This ce was where the spirit of the entire sealing formation resided.][Everyone in the sealednd was under the formation''s influence, and their auras were sensed by the formation spirit.] [The Mystic Turtle said that even if it didn''t stop you, crossing the formation gap would result in you being struck down by Heavenly Thunder.] [Only outsiders like Bai Ruoxue, who didn''t stay too long in the sealednd, could freelye and go without being sensed by the formation spirit.] [But if Bai Ruoxue stayed too long, she wouldn''t be able to leave either.] [After hearing the Mystic Turtle''s exnation, you broke into a cold sweat.] [However, you still didn''t understand why the Mystic Turtle was telling you all this.] [You didn''t have to guess for long; the Mystic Turtle soon revealed its purpose.] [It said it didn''t want to be trapped here as a gatekeeper.] [It believed that you might have a chance to break the seal if you achieved the Divine Dao.] [So, it was willing to invest in you.] [However, it also said it was disappointed with your recent performance.] [You awkwardly smiled on the surface.] [But in your heart, you muttered, "How did I disappoint you? With a big shot like you here, how could I dare to act rashly? Couldn''t you have said earlier that we were on the same side!"] [Seeing your discontent, the Mystic Turtle pointed out that the surrounding area was part of the sealing formation. It hadn''t restricted your movements recently, so why hadn''t you tried to study and break it?] [You twitched your mouth and retorted that you didn''t even know the basics of formations. How could you possibly learn such aplex formation on your own?] [In truth, you had thought about studying the sealing formation, given your talent as a Formation Dao genius.] [But without understanding the basic principles of formations, even the greatest talent would be useless!] [The Mystic Turtle was stunned by your words.] [It had never considered that a Chosen capable of cultivating the Divine Dao might not know basic formations.] [In the end, it shook its head helplessly and tossed a jade slip to you.] [It told you that this was a Divine Sense Jade Slip containing some basic formation knowledge, which you should be able to understand after reading.] [It also kindly exined that you could use the jade slip by cing it on your forehead to absorb its contents.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng pondered over this. The Divine Sense Jade Slip stored memories. Could he use deep simtion to directly extract those memories? This way, he could save a reward opportunity and exchange it for other simtion rewards. With this thought, Jiang Yifeng immediately muttered to himself. "Start a deep simtion for ten days." Fearing that ten days might not be enough, he added a few more days, knowing he could exit anytime. Even if it took less time, it didn''t matter. Ten days'' worth of Energy Value was affordable. [Ding, starting deep simtion for 240 hours, deducting 2.4 million Energy Value, remaining Energy Value: 9.8 billion...] As the simtor''s voice faded, Jiang Yifeng''s soul appeared within the simtor. He saw the Mystic Turtle, resembling a small ind, with its massive rune-inscribed chains. This was far more shocking than reading simtion text. After a quick nce, Jiang Yifeng didn''t dy and immediately ced the formation jade slip on his forehead. Instantly, countless formation-rted knowledge flooded his mind. Time passed bit by bit. Three dayster, Jiang Yifeng finally digested the formation knowledge from the jade slip. With a newfound understanding of formations, he realized how profound they truly were. However, the sudden influx of knowledge left Jiang Yifeng feeling dizzy. He promptly ended the deep simtion. Soon, Jiang Yifeng''s soul returned to the Jiang Family Mansion. Rubbing his head, Jiang Yifeng continued to look at the simtor. [After you absorbed the jade slip, the Mystic Turtle didn''t keep you there to study the sealing formation.] [Instead, it took you to the maind, urging you to leave quickly, saying that if you stayed too long, the formation spirit would sense you and implicate it.] [In the eleventh year, you headed north.] [Based on Bai Ruoxue''s previous route, you knew the southernmost point was the Endless Sea, where the Mystic Turtle resided.] [So, to return to Green Hills City, you had to head north.] [In the twelfth year, you finally saw Green Hills City.] [What took Bai Ruoxue only a few days took you two whole years.] [This was despite your cultivation reaching the second level of Core Formation, allowing you to fly.] [Otherwise, it would have taken even longer.] [You disguised yourself and rented a small courtyard near the Jiang Family Mansion.] [In the thirteenth year, you heard a loud noise and knew something had happened to your Jiang Family.] [You stepped outside and saw a shadowy figure in the sky attacking the Jiang Family.] [But soon, your father, Jiang Fushan, arrived with a group of cultivators.] [One of them, a Tribtion Crossing stage cultivator, casually killed the shadowy figure.] [Seeing the situation in the Jiang Family settle down, you quickly revealed yourself and called out to your father.] [Unsurprisingly, you followed your father, Jiang Fushan, to Spine Mountain.] [In the following days, you cultivated at Spine Mountain.] [This time, your focus was mainly on formations.] [In the fifteenth year, after two years of cultivation at Spine Mountain, you reached the level of a third-grade Formation Master.] [Formation Master levels are simple, ranging from first to ninth grade, with the level above ninth being Immortal Formation Master.] [These basics were all in the memory from the formation jade slip given by the Mystic Turtle.] [Your rapid advancement to a third-grade Formation Master was not just due to your talent but alsorgely thanks to the formation jade slip.] [Previously, you had no exposure to formations and didn''t understand them. Now, you realized the jade slip''s true value.] [It saved you a lot of time in familiarizing yourself with various formation theories and basics.] [The theories and basics of formations were as vast andplex as mathematical calctions and forms from your previous life.] [Without understanding them, the path of formations would be extremely difficult.] [You felt that without the jade slip, mastering those theories and basics would have taken you years, if not decades.] [In the sixteenth year, you became familiar with the people at Spine Mountain.] [One day, you approached Old Li and told him you wanted to study the formations left by Senior Lu Wuya.] [This was your main reason foring to Spine Mountain.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [Since you couldn''t study the sealing formation for now, you thought that studying the formations left by Senior Lu Wuya, which could avoid Heavenly Thunder, would greatly advance your formation skills.] Chapter 51: Years of cultivation, significant improvement in Formation Dao "You know about this formation, and Old Li isn''t surprised." "After all, the fact that Senior Lu Wuya left a formation in the heart of Spine Mountain ismon knowledge among the cultivators here; it''s no secret." "Moreover, there''s someone guarding the formation every day, just to prevent any Immortal ve from sneaking in to destroy it." "Upon hearing your request, Old Li thought for a moment and then personally led you there." "You sessfully entered the heart of Spine Mountain and arrived at the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya." "In the following days, you constantly observed and pondered over this formation using various formation knowledge." "But aside from feeling dizzy, you gained nothing. You realized you were too impatient." "With your current formation skills, this formation is like a book written in an unknownnguage." "The principle of formations is to use various basic formation symbols to create differentbinations to achieve various effects!""You couldn''t even see the most basic formation symbols, let alone learn them." "You knew it was because your formation skills were too low. Thebinations of those symbols were tooplex for you toprehend, so you couldn''t see them." "So, you had to leave, deciding to return once your formation skills improved." "During this time, Old Li followed you closely." "You knew it was because the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya was too important, and Old Li might not fully trust you yet." "In the seventeenth year, you secluded yourself again, diligently studying formations; for this, you even temporarily gave up cultivating the Immortal Dao and Martial Dao." "The reason was simple: you knew that Senior Lu Wuya''s formation wouldn''t hold until the next descent of Heavenly Thunder and would copse." "You wanted to fully enhance your formation skills to try and repair this formation." "You thought that if you could repair this formation, you could hide inside it when the Heavenly Thunder descended, thus extending the simtion time!" "Moreover, you now had the ''Longevity of the Southern Mountain'' talent, which increased your lifespan by a thousand years."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om "As long as you could repair this formation, you could cultivate for a thousand years, and you felt the benefits were immense." "In the twenty-third year, you sessfully set up a mid-grade Gathering Spirit Array, bing a fourth-grade Formation Master." "At this point, you finally understood that breaking through formations wasn''t as easy as you had imagined." "After fully digesting the Formation Dao jade slip, it took you six years to advance one grade." "Old Li, upon learning this, was even more excited than you." "He asked if you wanted to observe the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya again." "You were a bit puzzled." "Until finally, Old Li asked you to set up more mid-grade Gathering Spirit Arrays in Spine Mountain." "Only then did you realize he was asking for your help!" "Upon reflection, you thought it was reasonable." "After all, the cultivators here usually used basic Gathering Spirit Arrays." "The reason was simple: few cultivators in Spine Mountain had any talent for formations, and even ordinary Formation Masters were rare." "They could only set up basic Gathering Spirit Arrays." "It was said that there used to be advanced Gathering Spirit Arrays, but they had long since decayed and be ineffective." "The spiritual energy here was already thin, and without good Gathering Spirit Arrays, it was no wonder the cultivators of Spine Mountain often organized raids on the Spirit Stones of the Immortal Spirit Sect." "After all, cultivating here was extremely difficult; even with cultivation talent, without spiritual energy, it was all in vain." "You agreed to Old Li''s request without hesitation." "In the twenty-fourth year, you spent an entire year setting up hundreds of mid-grade Gathering Spirit Arrays in Spine Mountain." "This greatly enhanced your understanding of formations." "And what you did earned the gratitude of many cultivators in Spine Mountain, who all gave you Spirit Stones as a token of thanks." "Although the people here didn''t have many Spirit Stones, with thousands of cultivators each giving a little, you amassed 580,000 Spirit Stones." "For you, this was already a huge fortune." "In the thirty-first year, you sessfully broke through to a fifth-grade Formation Master." "In the thirty-ninth year, you reached the level of a sixth-grade Formation Master." "After that, you felt your progress in formations slow down significantly." "But you weren''t surprised; after all, as a sixth-grade Formation Master, if given time to set up formations, you could already rival a Void Refinement Realm cultivator." "If you could continue progressing at such a high speed, wouldn''t the Formation Dao be invincible?" "In the fortieth year, you entered the heart of Spine Mountain again, arriving at the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya." "This time, you could barely see some of the formation symbols within the formation." "This opened your eyes; the formation symbols you could see alone numbered in the millions." "These symbols intertwined, forming variousbinations and interweaving with each other." "For a moment, you were dazzled." "And what you could see was only a part of the formation; there was still arge portion you couldn''t make out." "You estimated that setting up this formation would require at least a billion formation symbols." "This was simply unimaginable." "A billion formation symbols, how manybinations would that entail?" "Now, as a sixth-grade Formation Master, the formations you could set up required only tens of thousands of symbols, with just a few hundredbinations." "Even so, in Old Li''s eyes, you were already an extremely skilled Formation Master." "You couldn''t imagine how powerful Senior Lu Wuya must have been." "Of course, what worried you more was the sealing formation outside the Southern Regions." "If the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya used so many symbols, how powerful must the formation sealing the entire Southern Regions be?" "Thinking of this, you couldn''t help but feel a bit hopeless." "Soon, you reminded yourself that this was within the simtion, and you still had time to improve." "You calmed your mind and carefully observed the formation symbols you could see, studying their patterns and operational principles." "After a day, you had a splitting headache." "Clearly, with your current formation skills, you couldn''t easily understand theplex patterns of these intertwined symbols." "This formation was still tooplex for you." "You had to leave the ce." "However, a day''s study still benefited you greatly." "You learned many different symbolbinations. If you could understand thesebinations, your formation skills might improve significantly!" "In the forty-first year, you triggered a random enlightenment, gaining a tenfold increase in cultivation speed and more active thinking." "This enlightenmentsted for ten months, during which you broke through to a seventh-grade Formation Master." "At this point, your formation skills far surpassed your cultivation level. A seventh-grade Formation Master,pared to cultivation, could be considered a Body Integration stage expert." Chapter 52: Energy Value has shrunk significantly [Year 42, you heard from Old Li that the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya showed signs of disturbance.] [You are now the most skilled Formation Master on Spine Mountain, so he asked you to check it out.] [Without hesitation, you immediately went to the location of Lu Wuya''s formation.] [In fact, even if Old Li hadn''t sought you out, you were nning toe and take a look.] [After all, you know that in the 43rd year, Old Li and the others will venture into the Desert of Death, so the formation must have shown problems this year.] [This time, you noticed more formation symbols.] [You continuously observed the formation''s operational routes, trying to understand its logic.] [Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and you were already drenched in sweat.] [Although you are a seventh-grade Formation Master, the grade of this formation is extremely high. Each observation and calction consumes a lot of your mental energy.][But after three days of calctions, you finally deciphered the operational logic of one set of formation runes.] [However, this left you somewhat puzzled.] [You couldn''t understand why a formation that could resist Heavenly Thunder had runes that seemed to guide rather than defend.] ["Guide, guide!" you muttered to yourself repeatedly.] [Suddenly, a thought struck you.] [Could it be that this formation doesn''t eliminate Heavenly Thunder but redirects it elsewhere?] [Then where could the Heavenly Thunder umted over millions of years be redirected?] [Looking at the formation before you, you eximed, "This is bad!"] [The formation is here, so the redirected Heavenly Thunder must be somewhere on Spine Mountain.] [But just then, you heard the sound of the formation cracking.] ["Zzz," arcs of electricity began to appear on the formation''s lines. Seeing this, you turned to flee.] ["Boom!" The formation exploded. Being at its center, you had no time to escape and were engulfed in a sea of lightning.] [You struggled desperately, but it was in vain.] [You died at the age of 60!] [This simtion has ended.] [You can choose two rewards from this simtion: Longevity of the Southern Mountain (Talent), Cultivation Level (Core Formation Stage 2), Formation Dao Jade Slip, Seventh-Grade Formation Master, Spirit Stones (580,000 pieces)] [Longevity of the Southern Mountain (Talent)]: Price 100 million Energy Value. [Cultivation Level (Core Formation Stage 2)]: Price 200 million Energy Value. [Formation Dao Jade Slip]: Price 1 billion Energy Value.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [Seventh-Grade Formation Master]: Price 10 billion Energy Value. [Spirit Stones (580,000 pieces)]: Price 5.8 billion Energy Value. This simtion was quite a rollercoaster for Jiang Yifeng. Initially, he thought he would die while venturing into the Endless Sea with Bai Ruoxue. But it turned out the Mystic Turtle guarding the Endless Sea was an ally. Then he thought he might die under the Heavenly Thunder in the fifty-third year, as he had been hiding on Spine Mountain. Or perhaps he would repair Lu Wuya''s formation and live for a thousand years, dying a natural death. Who knew the oue would be entirely unexpected? In the end, he died under the copse of Lu Wuya''s formation. It just goes to show that man proposes, but heaven disposes. Jiang Yifeng didn''t dwell on it further and looked at the rewards from this simtion. The Seventh-Grade Formation Master was a must-have. This was equivalent to the Body Integration stage of cultivation. Whether for self-preservation or other purposes, it was immensely valuable. The Formation Dao Jade Slip was unnecessary, as he had already obtained its knowledge through deep simtion. He still felt a bit dizzy from it. Finally, Jiang Yifeng was torn between Longevity of the Southern Mountain (Talent) and the 580,000 Spirit Stones. One increased his lifespan by a thousand years. If he could leave the Southern Regions, he could simte for another thousand years, which would be quite useful. The other, Spirit Stones, were crucial resources for cultivation. With hundreds of thousands of Spirit Stones, he could ensure rapid progress at the start of each simtion. After some thought, Jiang Yifeng made his decision. "I choose the Seventh-Grade Formation Master and the Spirit Stones." In the end, Jiang Yifeng opted for the Spirit Stones. After so many simtions, he felt that he had never truly managed to survive until the end. The path of cultivation is fraught with dangers; how many can truly die of old age? He felt that Spirit Stones would be more beneficial, at least ensuring rapid progress at the start of each simtion. [Ding, congrattions to the host for bing a Seventh-Grade Formation Master. 10 billion Energy Value has been deducted, leaving 8.8 billion Energy Value...] [Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining 580,000 Spirit Stones. 5.8 billion Energy Value has been deducted, leaving 3 billion Energy Value...] As the simtor''s voice faded, Jiang Yifeng instantly felt a flood of understanding about formations and their applications in his mind. Formation Dao differs from cultivation; it is more about understanding and knowledge. This enhancement was more about memory. Fortunately, the simtor''s infusion was gentle, unlike the headache-inducing deep simtion of the Formation Dao Jade Slip. At the same time, the simtor''s voice sounded again. [Ding, the host''s storage space is insufficient to hold all the Spirit Stones. The host can choose to spend 1 billion Energy Value to expand it by 100 times.] "Expand!" Jiang Yifeng didn''t hesitate. Although his Energy Value was running low, he couldn''t leave the Spirit Stones out in the open. That would be too conspicuous and not in line with his cautious nature. [Ding, storage ring expansion sessful. Your purchased Spirit Stones have been ced in the storage ring.] Jiang Yifeng checked his storage ring. Externally, it looked the same, but the internal space had expanded significantly. Originally only 50 cubic meters, about the size of a room. Now it had expanded 100 times to 5000 cubic meters. In terms of floor area, it was asrge as a football field. Inside the storage ring, a small mountain of Spirit Stones was piled on one side. Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but smile. But thinking about the tens of billions of Energy Value spent on these Spirit Stones, he felt a bit of heartache. Looking at the remaining 3 billion Energy Value, Jiang Yifeng pondered whether he should have Jiang Dafu start purchasing gold, silver, and jewels again. "Forget it, let''s wait a bit longer!" Jiang Yifeng muttered to himself. He remembered that his previous purchases of gold, silver, and jewels had caused a cash flow problem for the Jiang n Firm. And it had only been less than two months since then. He wasn''t sure if the Jiang n Firm had recovered. Starting to purchase gold, silver, and jewels now would be too hasty. Moreover, with over 3 billion Energy Value left, he felt he could still simte a few more times as long as he didn''t exchange for arge number of Spirit Stones. With everything settled, Jiang Yifeng didn''t immediately go to the Pleasure House to listen to music. His mind was too cluttered with knowledge. He felt he needed to rest and digest it all. Chapter 53: The combination of reality and simulation Jiang Yifeng didn''t visit the Pleasure House to listen to music on the day the simtion ended, but in the days that followed, he continued to go there daily. Another week passed in the blink of an eye. Today was the day the simtion count refreshed. Jiang Yifeng was already waiting in his room. Soon, the simtion count refreshed, and Jiang Yifeng silently chanted. "Start Simtion!" [Consumed 1 simtion count, remaining count 0] [Drawing Blue Talent costs 100,000 Energy Value, drawing Purple Talent costs 1,000,000 Energy Value, please choose!] "Draw Purple Talent."[Ding, 1,000,000 Energy Value deducted, drawing Purple Talent, remaining Energy Value 3 billion...] [Congrattions Host, you have acquired the talent: Yimu Divine Body.] [Yimu Divine Body]: Extremely strong vitality, possessing super self-healing abilities. Seeing this talent, Jiang Yifeng had an idea. Since he had self-healing abilities, could it be paired with Martial Dao? Martial Dao mainly involved body tempering. Previously, apart from practicing the set of movements from the nameless technique, he didn''t dare to try other dangerous body tempering methods. But now, with this strong self-healing constitution. He felt it was a perfect match for Martial Dao. Jiang Yifeng thought he could give it a try in this simtion. However, he quickly shook his head, deciding that this simtion should still focus on Formation Dao. Only by improving Formation Dao and repairing the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya could he simte for a longer time. After some thought, Jiang Yifeng continued to look at the simtor. [17th simtion begins.] [You nced around, confirming you had entered the simtion.] [On the first day, you left Green Hills City under the cover of night.] [On the second day, you arrived at the ruins of Heavenly Profound Temple in the Evergreen Mountain Range.] [On that day, you cleaned up the ruins and buried the bones.] [On the third day, you began toprehend formations.] [In the first year, you made almost no progress.] [In the second year, by summarizing the previous year''s experience, you felt that mereprehension might not be enough, so you began to practice.] [You set up various formations nearby every day, constantly improving your proficiency, hoping to gain some new insights.] [In the third year, Bai Ruoxue descended.] [She discovered you and, after some examination, asked if you were willing to be her disciple.] [You didn''t hesitate and agreed.] [Three dayster, she said she would take you out of this sealednd in the Southern Regions and asked if you were willing to leave.] [You agreed without a second thought.] [This time, your purpose ining to the ruins of Heavenly Profound Temple was just to hitch a ride to the Endless Sea.] [You wanted to go to the Endless Sea again, to the Mystic Turtle, toprehend the sealing formation.] [You felt this would greatly help you improve your Formation Dao.] [Of course, you could also go to the Endless Sea by yourself; you knew you could get there by heading southward.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [But you thought it was too troublesome; going by yourself would take years, and the journey was dangerous and unknown.] [Although you didn''t encounter any danger on yourst simtion, what if you did this time!] [After all, you didn''t have the route map from thest simtion, so it was still more convenient and safer to let Bai Ruoxue take you.] [In the blink of an eye, a few days passed, and Bai Ruoxue brought you to the Endless Sea.] [As soon as you arrived, the Mystic Turtle emerged from the sea.] [Bai Ruoxue bribed the Mystic Turtle with spirit stones, and eventually, the Mystic Turtle epted the spirit stones and suppressed you both.] [Afterward, the Mystic Turtle threw Bai Ruoxue out of the Southern Regions, telling her to bring ten billion spirit stones to take you away.] [You knew in your heart that the Mystic Turtle was lying, but you didn''t expose it.] [The Mystic Turtle took you to a small ind.] [Upon arrival, the Mystic Turtle immediately fell into a deep sleep, ignoring you.] [You weren''t nervous at all; instead, you walked towards the depths of the ind.] [You knew there was a part of the sealing formation there.] [You could observe the operation of the formation up close.] [Just as you started walking, the Mystic Turtle opened its eyes.] [It was puzzled, thinking: are young people nowadays so bold?] [On the first day on the ind, you dared to ignore it.] [As a result, you were in trouble; before you reached the sealing formation, the Mystic Turtle caught you.] [It opened its huge mouth, threatening to eat you if you acted recklessly.] [You were stunned.] [Weren''t we allies? Why did things change?] [In fact, the Mystic Turtle was also a bit annoyed; it thought: this young man''s talent is good, and he practices Divine Dao; it believed you had a chance topletely break this sealing formation in the future.] [Once the formation waspletely broken, the chains binding it would lose most of their power, allowing it to escape.] [But you were too reckless, so it wanted to teach you a lesson, to instill some respect!] [Otherwise, with such recklessness, you might die young; who knows when another Chosen like you, capable of breaking the sealing formation, would appear.] [After that, you behaved yourself, not daring to act recklessly.] [In the fourth year, apart from asionally fishing at the ind''s edge, you did nothing else.] [You didn''t know why the Mystic Turtle''s behavior differed from thest simtion, but you understood that such a powerful being was not someone you could provoke, so preserving your life was important.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng, seeing this, felt a bit overwhelmed. It seemed that his simted self was really scared by the Mystic Turtle. This was not ording to the original n! But it wasn''t really the fault of his simted self. The Mystic Turtle was just too unpredictable. Even though it was an ally, why scare him unnecessarily? In the end, Jiang Yifeng sighed and silently chanted. "Start a one-day deep simtion!" He felt he had to intervene in reality. He couldn''t waste time like this in the simtion. [Ding, starting 24-hour deep simtion, consuming 240,000 simtion energy.] In the blink of an eye, Jiang Yifeng had entered the simtion. He didn''t hesitate and walked directly towards the depths of the ind. As he walked deeper, he saw the Mystic Turtle move slightly. But Jiang Yifeng, watching from outside the simtor, saw clearly that the Mystic Turtle still had no malice, it just thought he was reckless and wanted him to be more cautious. Since that was the case, Jiang Yifeng didn''t mind. He thought, the simtion had shown a year had passed. The Mystic Turtle shouldn''t act again. Soon, an hour passed, and he had reached the depths of the ind. Jiang Yifeng nced at the sealing formation, feeling the formation symbols were profound and difficult to understand. He tried to analyze it, and his mind shook, feeling as if his head was about to explode. In the end, Jiang Yifeng gave up, thinking it was better to leave such matters to the simtion. So he chanted. "End deep simtion!" In an instant, Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness returned to the Jiang Family Mansion in Green Hills City. Without thinking much, he continued to watch the development in the simtor. [You looked at the sealing formation in the distance, feeling a bit dazed.] [You wondered how you got there just now?] [After pondering for a long time, you suddenly had an epiphany, thinking: is reality affecting me?] Chapter 54: Insufficient cultivation, unable to break through to an Eighth-Rank Formation Master [You didn''t dwell on how you ended up in the depths of the ind. After ncing around for a moment, you noticed that the Mystic Turtle remained motionless, either asleep or simply ignoring you.] [So, you turned your attention to the sealing formation, hoping to gain some insights to improve your Formation Dao.] [The numerous formation symbols sketched out one unfamiliar formation pattern after another, making it difficult for you toprehend immediately.] [You knew that with your current formation skills, it was impossible to fully understand this sealing formation.] [Thus, you chose one of the countless interwoven formation patterns to begin analyzing.] [You aimed to break it down piece by piece, progressing gradually.] [But even so, as you continued to analyze, you felt as if your head was about to explode.] [After half an hour, you couldn''t hold on any longer and decided to take a break.] [However, you didn''t give up. After resting for half a day, you resumed analyzing that formation pattern.][This became your routine!] [Every day, you intermittently analyzed and tried to understand the sealing formation.] [By the fourth year, after an entire year, you had only managed to analyze a small part of that formation pattern.] [Despite this, you felt that the continuous analysis had significantly improved your understanding of formations.] [In the fifth year, you had analyzed half of that formation pattern, and you clearly felt a deeper understanding of formations.] [In the sixth year, you continued to analyze that formation pattern.] [By the eighth year, you finallypleted the analysis of that formation pattern, greatly enhancing your knowledge of formations.] [You felt quite pleased, but when you looked at the other formation patterns around you, your heart sank.] [Just one formation pattern had taken you five years.] [And there were hundreds of thousands of such formation patterns visible to the naked eye in this area alone.] [Theplete sealing formation didn''t just cover this area; it enveloped the entire Southern Regions. How many more formation patterns must there be?] [To fully analyze this sealing formation and understand its underlying logic, you needed to find a way to break it.] [At your current rate of analysis, you couldn''t imagine how much time it would take.] ["Ah, the road ahead is long and arduous," you sighed.] [But this was something you had anticipated.] [Your purpose ining here was merely to improve your formation skills.] [Once your Formation Dao improved further, you could attempt to repair the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya on Spine Mountain, which could resist Heavenly Thunder.] [Everything you were doing now was just to increase your simtion duration and enhance your strength.] [In the ninth year, you didn''t analyze any new formation patterns.] [Instead, you summarized your gains from the previous years. At this point, you felt that your understanding of formations had reached the level where you could set up an eighth-grade formation.] [Without hesitation, you began to practice.] [But as you were setting up the eighth-grade formation, you had only drawn five formation symbols, which couldn''t even form a single pattern, before the spiritual energy in your Qi Sea was exhausted and couldn''t sustain it.] [You muttered to yourself, "So it is as I thought?"] [You had anticipated this situation, but you couldn''t resist trying.]n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [Formation symbols are drawn with spiritual energy, and the higher the grade of the formation, the more spiritual energy each symbol requires.] [Ordinarily, a cultivator at the Core Formation stage could at most set up a fourth-grade formation.] [Some talented individuals with a strong foundation, more Golden Core patterns, arge Qi Sea, and abundant spiritual energy could set up fifth or even sixth-grade formations, which was already quite rare.] [Due to your Divine Dao cultivation with a twelfth-grade Golden Core, you could convert primordial energy into spiritual energy;bined with a Qi Sea three timesrger than ordinary cultivators, you could set up a seventh-grade formation.] [But that was your limit. Attempting an eighth-grade formation was a bit too ambitious.] [You shook your head but didn''t feel discouraged.] [Although you couldn''t set up an eighth-grade formation, it wasn''t due to ack of formation skills but rather insufficient spiritual energy.] [You believed that as your strength improved, you would soon be able to set up an eighth-grade formation.] [Moreover, not being able to set up an eighth-grade formation didn''t affect your purpose foring here.] [You originally intended to gain more understanding of formations here to repair the formation left by Lu Wuya.] [Repairing a formation is different from setting one up; it doesn''t necessarily require you to draw formation symbols. Perhaps you only need to guide the problematic areas.] [You felt that this trip wasn''t in vain.] [In the tenth year, the Mystic Turtle took you out of the Endless Sea and revealed its purpose.] [The Mystic Turtle told you that it was also a prisoner.] [It warned you not to act recklessly when facing an unbeatable enemy and to assess the situation before taking action.] [Only then did you realize that the Mystic Turtle''s earlier threats to eat you were because it thought you were too reckless at first.] [In the twelfth year, you returned to Green Hills City.] [In the thirteenth year, a Shadowy Figure Immortal ve descended, and you saw the Jiang Family''s residence copse with a single palm strike.] [Afterward, your father, Jiang Fushan, arrived with reinforcements, killed the Shadowy Figure Immortal ve, and evacuated the Jiang Family members.] [You also appeared in time to leave with the others, heading to Spine Mountain.] [After arriving at Spine Mountain, you didn''t immediately request to see the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya.] [Instead, you focused on cultivating here, asionally showcasing your skills as a seventh-grade Formation Master.] [In the fourteenth year, Old Li approached you, hoping you could set up some high-grade Gathering Spirit Arrays to elerate the cultivation speed of the cultivators here.] [Without hesitation, you agreed.] [High-grade Gathering Spirit Arrays are seventh-grade formations, and due to your limited spiritual energy, setting them up wasn''t quick.] [Often, after setting up one high-grade Gathering Spirit Array, you needed to rest and recover for a while.] [In the sixteenth year, after two full years, you had set up five high-grade Gathering Spirit Arrays on Spine Mountain.] [At this point, from the outside, one could clearly sense arge amount of spiritual energy being gathered from afar by the high-grade Gathering Spirit Arrays.] [In the seventeenth year, the cultivation environment on Spine Mountain noticeably improved. The cultivators here no longer needed to risk robbing Immortal ves for Spirit Stones, as they could now enhance their spiritual energy.] [That year, you received numerous gifts from the cultivators.] [The Spirit Stones alone amounted to over 900,000.] [In the eighteenth year, you had gained considerable poprity on Spine Mountain, and everyone trusted you.] [That year, you found Old Li and told him you wanted to observe the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya.] [You hoped to gain some insights from it to further improve your Formation Dao skills.] Chapter 55: Perfect plan, rapid improvement in Martial Dao Old Li, upon hearing your words, immediately takes you there. This time, Old Li has no doubts about you whatsoever. After bringing you to the location, he turns and leaves. You have been living here for five years now. Your character and contributions to Spine Mountain have long surpassed countless others. There is simply no reason for him to doubt you. Of course, this is also your intention. If Old Li were to suspect you and stay by your side, even if you could repair the formation left by Lu Wuya, he would likely obstruct you. After all, this formation was left by Senior Lu Wuya and is the lifeline for all the cultivators of Spine Mountain when facing Heavenly Thunder. There is no way Old Li would let you tamper with this formation so easily. Now that Old Lipletely trusts you and isn''t following you, you can freely study the formation and attempt to repair it, preventing its imminent copse.In the neenth year, you spend a year studying the formation left by Lu Wuya. Although this formation is significantly inferior to the sealing formation of the Southern Regions, you believe it is still an immortal formation. Because even after a year of study, you still can''t understand much of it. Even though you are currently a seventh-grade Formation Master, you believe your theoretical knowledge of formations is on par with that of an eighth-grade Formation Master. A formation that is stillrgely iprehensible to you must undoubtedly be an immortal formation. An eighth-grade theoretical foundation might not be enough to set up an eighth-grade formation, but it should be sufficient to understand most ninth-grade formations. After all, the formation is right in front of you, akin to having the answers to a test. If you can''t understand it even with the answers, it can only mean the level difference is too vast. You think perhaps everyone, including Old Li, has underestimated Senior Lu Wuya. He ims that Senior Lu Wuya''s strength was insufficient, but can someone who can set up an immortal formation really be weak? At the very least, you believe he is certainly not weak. With your understanding of formations, it is impossible to have the spiritual energy to support such aplex immortal formation without corresponding cultivation. You don''t dwell on it further. Although you still don''t understand much of this formation, it doesn''t matter. You only need to understand the guiding routes of the formation. After all, you already learned the reason for this formation''s copse in yourst simtion. This formation guides Heavenly Thunder to the underground of Spine Mountain, and the violent Heavenly Thunder underground causes the formation to copse. As long as you understand the guiding routes of this formation and follow them to locate the Heavenly Thunder underground of Spine Mountain, you can set up a small lightning-guiding formation nearby. This will slowly guide the sealed Heavenly Thunder out of the underground, dissipating it bit by bit.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om As long as you consume the underground Heavenly Thunder, you believe you can dy the copse of this formation. In the twenty-second year, after three years, you finally follow the guiding routes of the formation and locate the underground Heavenly Thunder. In the twenty-third year, you set up an inverted seventh-grade lightning-guiding formation at the confirmed location. If other formation masters who don''t know the reason saw this, they would definitely think your setup is nonsense. Who sets up a lightning-guiding formation facing the ground? Where would the underground thundere from? At the moment your formation takes shape, a green thunderbolt shoots out from the ground through the lightning-guiding formation. With a thunderous "boom," it strikes you directly. Your physical body is instantly torn apart, severely injured. But this is within your expectations. After all, it is a formation you set up, and you had already calcted the approximate strength of the thunderbolt it would guide out. Soon, the injuries on your body begin to heal visibly. During this healing process, your Martial Dao cultivation also starts to increase slowly. Seeing this, you grin. Indeed, the Yimu Divine Body is a perfect match for Martial Dao cultivation. In the following days, you are baptized by thunder daily. You are in pain and excitement, the pain from being struck by thunder every day is unbearable. But the excitementes from your rapidly increasing Martial Dao cultivation. You think your n is simply perfect. Not only does it dy the copse of the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya, potentially extending your simtion time, but it also strengthens your Martial Dao cultivation! In the twenty-fourth year, your Martial Dao breaks through to the fourth level of the Qi Motion Realm. In the twenty-fifth year, your Martial Dao breaks through to the fifth level of the Qi Motion Realm. In the twenty-sixth year, your Martial Dao breaks through to the sixth level of the Qi Motion Realm. Advancing one minor realm per year, this speed of Martial Dao improvement far exceeds your expectations. However, after reaching the sixth level of the Qi Motion Realm, you feel that your Martial Dao breakthroughs have slowed down significantly. Because the strength of the previous thunderbolts can no longer severely injure you, they can only cause minor injuries! In the twenty-seventh year, you adjust the lightning-guiding formation to increase the strength of the thunderbolts it guides out. In the twenty-eighth year, your Martial Dao breaks through to the seventh level of the Qi Motion Realm. After the adjustment, your Martial Dao cultivation begins to break through rapidly again. In the thirty-first year, your Martial Dao has reached the peak of the Qi Motion Realm. But at this time, you discover a serious problem. Because you have a twelfth-grade Golden Core and have achieved the Divine Dao, breaking through major realms requires both your Immortal Dao and Martial Dao to reach their peaks simultaneously. Now, your Martial Dao has reached the peak of the Qi Motion Realm, but your Immortal Dao cultivation is still at the first level of Core Formation. So, you have no choice but to temporarily remove the lightning-guiding formation and stop your Martial Dao cultivation. But by doing so, you can no longer consume the underground Heavenly Thunder of Spine Mountain. How long can the formation left by Senior Lu Wuyast? Although you have consumed some of the underground Heavenly Thunder through the lightning-guiding formation, you don''t think it''s enough. After all, your strength is insufficient, and the amount consumed is actually not much. You then find Old Li and tell him that the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya has a problem. Old Li''s expression changes slightly. He has long known about the imminent copse of the formation, but he doesn''t know the specific reason. Soon, Old Li gathers some elders of Spine Mountain for a meeting. A few days pass, and Old Li and the others finally conclude their meeting. You don''t know what they discussed specifically. In the end, Old Li finds you and says that although your formation skills are impressive, you are only a seventh-grade Formation Master, and the problems you see may not be urate. Rashly tampering with the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya could lead to unforeseen dangers. You understand in your heart that Old Li''s words mean the meeting didn''t approve your proposal. They don''t believe you, or perhaps they do, but they don''t dare to take the risk. You can understand Old Li and the others. After all, this formation is the only lifeline for the cultivators of Spine Mountain to avoid Heavenly Thunder. They won''t take risks unless absolutely necessary. But will it be toote when it bes absolutely necessary? Chapter 56: Return to Green Hills City, calmly welcome the Heavenly Thunder "You know it''s toote!" "Just like thest simtion, when it was absolutely necessary, Old Li asked you to check the situation, and you ended up being engulfed by a sea of thunder, ending the simtion instantly." "In the end, you just shook your head without saying much." "You know it''s impossible to get them to help eliminate those Heavenly Thunders together." "In the thirty-second year, you discovered that many people on Spine Mountain had be wary of you." "Whenever you approached the formation, someone would always appear around you, either intentionally or unintentionally." "You smiled bitterly, realizing how cautious these people were. They were worried you would ignore their advice and try to repair the formation on your own, so they monitored you." "As a result, you began to go out less frequently in the following days." "You started focusing on cultivating the Immortal Dao every day.""You had an ample supply of Spirit Stones." "You had 600,000 of your own, plus over 900,000 Spirit Stones you received as a thank-you gift for setting up high-grade Gathering Spirit Arrays for the cultivators on Spine Mountain." "With over a million Spirit Stones, your cultivation in the Immortal Dao progressed rapidly." "In the thirty-third year, you sessfully broke through to the second level of Core Formation." "In the thirty-fifth year, you reached the third level of Core Formation." "In the fortieth year, you had already reached the fifth level of Core Formation." "However, that year, you left Spine Mountain." "You knew that in thest simtion, it was in the forty-second year that the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya had problems." "Although you had consumed some Heavenly Thunder this time, possibly dying the issue a bit." "But you weren''t sure how much it would be dyed, so to extend the simtion time, you decided to leave early." "In the forty-third year, you broke through to the sixth level of Core Formation." "In the forty-fifth year, you triggered the talent: Random Enlightenment, gaining an 8x cultivation speed buff, making your thoughts more active." "This enlightenmentsted for a whole year, allowing your cultivation level to directly break through to the eighth level of Core Formation." "In the fifty-first year, you finally broke through to the ninth level of Core Formation." "You knew there were only two years left before the Heavenly Thunder would descend." "You knew that normal cultivation wouldn''t be enough." "You no longer had time to perfect both your Immortal Dao and Martial Dao cultivation to break through to the next major realm." "So you started heading towards Spine Mountain." "You wanted to see if the formation left by Lu Wuya was still intact after you had consumed some of the Heavenly Thunder." "If it was still holding, you might be able to use it to live by hiding for a while longer." "In the fifty-second year, you arrived at Spine Mountain again." "At a nce, you saw only a patch of scorched earth, with asional arcs of electricity flickering on the ckened ground." "You smiled bitterly, realizing that the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya had not held up." "You knew this simtion was likely nearing its end." "Facing the Heavenly Thunder, you still had no good solution." "In the fifty-third year, you returned to Green Hills City." "By then, Green Hills City was nothing but ruins and scattered bones."N?v(el)B\\jnn "You felt a chill in your heart; you had already guessed this oue!" "It must have been decades ago when the shadowy figure attacked the Jiang Family, revealing the existence of immortals to the people of Green Hills City." "To keep the existence of immortals a secret and prevent more mortals from seeking immortality, the Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect took action." "Without further thought, you sat cross-legged on the ruins of the Jiang Family Mansion, waiting for the Heavenly Thunder to descend." "One day, the sky was filled with lightning and thunder, and a bolt of purple lightning came crashing down towards you!" "Facing the Heavenly Thunder, you did not move." "In fact, you could have set up some formations to strengthen your defenses and live by hiding for a bit longer." "But in the end, you just smiled slightly and chose to face it calmly." "You died at the age of 73." "This simtion has ended." "You can choose two rewards from this simtion: Yimu Divine Body (Talent), Martial Dao Cultivation (Qi Motion Realm Perfection), Immortal Dao Cultivation (Ninth level of Core Formation), Pseudo Eighth-grade Formation Master." "Yimu Divine Body (Talent): Costs 1 million Energy Value." "Martial Dao Cultivation (Qi Motion Realm Perfection): Costs 9.5 million Energy Value." "Immortal Dao Cultivation (Ninth level of Core Formation): Costs 9 million Energy Value." "Pseudo Eighth-grade Formation Master: Costs 1 billion Energy Value; (Only theoretical knowledge, unable to set up eighth-grade formations due to insufficient cultivation level.)" Jiang Yifeng looked at his calm demeanor at the end of the simtion. He suddenly found it a bit cool. This simtion had basically achieved the desired goal, so he didn''t feel much regret. He just didn''t expect the people of Spine Mountain to be so stubborn. It seemed that extending the simtion time was still a long way off. It looked like he would have to break through to a higher level in the Formation Dao to find people on Spine Mountain to help consume the underground Heavenly Thunder. Or he would have to increase his own cultivation level so he could withstand more Heavenly Thunder and consume more of it himself. Otherwise, it would be impossible to dy the copse of the formation left by Lu Wuya. Without dying the copse of that formation, it would be very difficult to increase the simtion duration. Jiang Yifeng stopped thinking about the simtion. He looked at the simtion rewards. Actually, the rewards this time were quite good. Formations were obviously very important, but what hecked right now was strength. Without enough spiritual energy, he couldn''t set up higher-grade formations or break through to be a true eighth-grade Formation Master. As for Martial Dao, it seemed more cost-effective than the Immortal Dao. After all, it was half a realm higher. But from the simtion, it was clear that as long as he went to Spine Mountain and entered the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya, guiding the underground Heavenly Thunder for cultivation, his Martial Dao would improve very quickly. So in the next simtion, as long as he went to Spine Mountain, his Martial Dao cultivation would quickly catch up. Thus, Jiang Yifeng didn''t hesitate much and silently chose. "I choose Yimu Divine Body (Talent) and Immortal Dao Cultivation (Ninth level of Core Formation)." There was a quick way to improve Martial Dao, but for Immortal Dao cultivation, Jiang Yifeng hadn''t found any shortcuts yet, other than absorbing Spirit Stones to elerate it. But this speed was still much slower than using Heavenly Thunder to temper the body in Martial Dao. As for the Yimu Divine Body (Talent), it was a must-have. With it, he could use Heavenly Thunder to enhance his Martial Dao for a long time. So, he felt this was the best choice for now. "Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining the talent Yimu Divine Body; 1 million Energy Value deducted, remaining Energy Value: 3 billion..." "Ding, Immortal Dao Cultivation (Ninth level of Core Formation) sessfully extracted, 9 million Energy Value deducted, remaining Energy Value: 3 billion..." Soon, Jiang Yifeng felt his strength increase. A few secondster, everything was over. Jiang Yifeng walked out of the Jiang Family Mansion and headed towards the Spring Blossom Pavilion. This simtion hadsted a long time, and his eyes were a bit tired. He thought he should listen to some music to relieve his fatigue. Chapter 57: You call this ‘a hand of God A week passed, and the simtion attempts were refreshed! Jiang Yifeng returned to his room and silently chanted, "Start simtion!" [Consumed 1 simtion attempt, remaining attempts: 0] [Drawing Blue Talent costs 100,000 Energy Value, drawing Purple Talent costs 1,000,000 Energy Value. Please choose!] "Draw Purple Talent." [Ding, 1,000,000 Energy Value deducted, drawing Purple Talent, remaining Energy Value: 3 billion...] [Congrattions, Host, you have obtained the talent: Hand of God.] [Hand of God]: Key items will periodically appear in your hand. Jiang Yifeng fell into deep thought.Isn''t Hand of God a term from Go? Never mind, it''s not important. But judging by the talent description, it should be somewhat useful. He couldn''t help but feel a bit excited. He immediately looked at the simtion panel. [Simtion No. 18 begins.] [You realize you are already in the simtion.] [Seeing that it''s still early, you decide not to leave Green Hills City immediately, nning to leave at night when no one is around.] [In the evening, after dinner, you tidy up and prepare to leave the Jiang Family Mansion under the cover of night.] [Just then, you hear the maid Little Peach in your courtyard crying out.] [You are about to go check when suddenly, a soft object appears in your hand.] [Looking at the object in your hand, your expression changes slightly.] [Isn''t this Little Peach''s dudou!] [Before you can recover, you see Little Peach running towards you, crying.] [As she runs, she shouts, "There''s a pervert!"] [Looking at the dudou in your hand, you feel a bit guilty and quickly put it into your storage ring.] [Little Peach finally reaches you.] [You ask her what happened.] [Little Peach tells you everything, saying she was about to sleep when she suddenly felt her dudou disappear.] [Your heart races, thinking of the dudou that just appeared in your hand.] [Suddenly, you recall the talent you drew in this simtion.] [Could this dudou be one of the key items mentioned by Hand of God?] [Suppressing the urge to curse, you first calm Little Peach down.] [It takes until midnight for Little Peach to settle down and go back to sleep.] [After that, you finally have time to analyze what happened.] [You figure it must be the talent at work.] [Having experienced many simtions, you know some talents are quite unusual.] [It seems the key items mentioned by this talent are different from what you expected.] [You can''t help but think: calling this talent Hand of God is a bit too much!] [Without thinking too much, you leave Green Hills City that night.] [However, along the way, various items keep appearing in your hand.] [There are dudous of all colors, as well as cucumbers, eggnts¡ªwhat the heck!] [And fire sticks, what are these!] [Suddenly, you think of some possibilities.] [You feel deeply disdainful.] [You quickly find a river and wash your hands thoroughly.] [Only after entering the Evergreen Mountain Range, far from people, do the strange items stop appearing in your hand.] [This makes you feel much more at ease.] [On the third day, you adjust your emotions.] [You start thinking about what to do next.] [Because of this infuriating Hand of God talent, you worry about encountering Bai Ruoxue and causing more trouble.] [Should you still hitch a ride with Bai Ruoxue to the Endless Sea?] [In the end, you shake your head, deciding not to risk it.] [If this talent affects Bai Ruoxue, who is at the Eighth Layer of Tribtion, this simtion would likely end.] [To be safe, you decide not to contact Bai Ruoxue in this simtion.] [You nce at the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple and clear them out, burying the bones.] [After that, you start heading southward.] [This time, you need to go to the Endless Sea on your own.] [Although you might encounter dangers along the way, it''s better than offending Bai Ruoxue at the Eighth Layer of Tribtion.] [You also considered not going to the Endless Sea, but you need to use the Heavenly Thunder under Lu Wuya''s formation to temper your body.] [Therefore, you need to enhance your formation skills to find the exact location of the Heavenly Thunder and guide it out through the formation.] [The best ce to quickly improve your formation theory is the Endless Sea, where you can get close to the sealing formation.] [Of course, the Desert of Death, Valley of mes, and Forest of Ten Thousand Swords might also have sealing formations, but you are sure that the Mystic Turtle in the Endless Sea is friendly.] [There, you can safely improve your formation knowledge.] [In the first year, you don''t know how far you''ve traveled.] [You avoid popted areas to prevent unnecessary trouble due to the Hand of God talent.] [But you still encounter many troubles.] [Several times, female Immortal ves find you, and you are holding their dudous when they do.] [Fortunately, your cultivation is strong, and most of the Immortal ves stationed outside are only at the Foundation Establishment stage, not your match.] [This year, rumors of the Dudou Immortal spread among the people.] [In the second year, a Nascent Soul stage female Immortal ve''s dudou appears in your hand.] [You have a bloody battle with her.] [Although she is at a higher stage and knows various spells,] [You practice both Divine Dao and Immortal Martial Arts, with a stronger foundation.] [After three days of battle, you exhaust her to death.] [But you also suffer serious injuries.] [In the third year, you are hunted.] [The battle with the female Immortal ve the previous year is known to the Immortal Spirit Sect, and they send many experts to hunt you down.] [Fortunately, the Immortal Spirit Sect doesn''t take you too seriously, sending people mostly at the Core Formation to Nascent Soul stages.] [After many battles, you reach the edge of the Endless Sea with some close calls.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [The Immortal ves stop chasing you as you enter the Endless Sea''s territory.] [You don''t know if they think you are doomed or if they also fear stepping into the beast''s territory.] [You reach the edge of the Endless Sea, touching the seawater, but the Mystic Turtle does not appear.] [You are puzzled.] [When you came with Bai Ruoxue, the Mystic Turtle appeared from the water from afar.] [You wonder, "Is it because my strength is too low to attract the Mystic Turtle''s attention?"] [Days pass with no movement.] [You decide not to wait and start shouting into the Endless Sea, evenunching spiritual energy attacks to attract the Mystic Turtle''s attention.] [Sure enough, soon, the Mystic Turtle''s massive body emerges from the sea.] [The Mystic Turtle looks angry.] [Without asking, it opens its mouth and sucks you in, your body flying uncontrobly towards its mouth.] Chapter 58: Immortal Chess Game "WTF, you didn''t expect the Mystic Turtle to be so irritable this time, starting to eat without saying a word." In a moment of desperation, you shouted, "We''re all prisoners here, why make things difficult for each other?" As soon as you finished speaking, a strange light appeared in the Mystic Turtle''s eyes. You felt the terrifying suction disappear, and you found yourself in the giant turtle''s w. It stared at you for a long time, thenughed heartily and said, "Interesting, I didn''t expect such a Chosen to emerge from this sealednd, and you even know my background." Your heart skipped a beat, worried that the Mystic Turtle would ask for details. After all, you didn''t actually know its background. Even with previous simtions, you only knew it was also imprisoned and wanted to escape. But clearly, you were overthinking it; the Mystic Turtle didn''t ask about any of that. It simply asked why you hade to find it.You rxed a bit and straightforwardly said you wanted toprehend the sealing formation here to improve your formation knowledge. The Mystic Turtle thought for a moment and then nodded in agreement, but told you that you could only stay for seven years. You knew this was because the formation spirit of the sealing formation might awaken in seven years. The Mystic Turtle had mentioned this in previous simtions. Naturally, you wouldn''t push your luck, and you promised to leave within seven years. After that, the Mystic Turtle took you to an ind in the Endless Sea. This time, since everything wasid out, you had no other concerns. Upon reaching the ind, you went straight to the area closest to the barrier of the sealing formation. The Mystic Turtle watched all this, already having several thoughts in mind. To the Mystic Turtle, anyone who knew its background couldn''t be a native of the Southern Regions. It thought you were a pawn sent by some big shot from the heavens to break this ce and cause trouble for the one who sealed it here. After all, the struggles between those big shots are always like this. At their level, immortals rarely act personally; they use all beings as chess pieces to determine victory. The Mystic Turtle itself, a Mystic Immortal from the Immortal Realm, was also a pawn in the hands of some big shot! Whether it liked it or not, as long as it was locked here, it would naturally be a pawn for those big shots if it wanted freedom.N?v(el)B\\jnn The Mystic Turtle was now pondering whether you were a pawn of the same big shot or if another yer had entered the game. After all, the one who captured and locked it here wasn''t the same Immortal who sealed the Southern Regions. The Mystic Turtle knew this in its heart; it was locked here to be a pawn to break the seal of the Southern Regions. In other words, the person who locked it up was opposed to the Immortal who sealed this ce. After all, it wanted freedom, and now it needed to break the sealing formation here. Because the chains that locked it were connected to the sealing formation by that big shot. The Mystic Turtle gave you a deep look before diving into the water. Naturally, you didn''t know what the Mystic Turtle was thinking. At this moment, you had already ventured deep into the ind, arriving at the sealing formation. Jiang Yifeng''s heart tightened as he saw this. It seemed the waters of the Southern Regions were deeper than he had imagined. From the Mystic Turtle''s thoughts, it was clear that this ce was a chessboard for many big shots from the heavens. Even a Mystic Immortal like the Mystic Turtle was forced to be a pawn. "Whoo!" Jiang Yifeng took a deep breath. It seemed he couldn''t be afraid of hardship; he needed to improve quickly. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng silently chanted. "Start deep simtion for seven years!" This was an idea Jiang Yifeng had long thought of. For memory-based knowledge like formations, he felt that deep simtion couldpletely bypass simtion rewards and directly obtain it from the deep simtion. But thest time Jiang Yifeng merely nced at the sealing formation, his head felt like it was splitting open. So he gave up on using deep simtion to gain this power. But now Jiang Yifeng felt he shouldn''t be afraid of hardship. The waters of this world were too deep; without enough power, he wouldn''t feel safe. "Ding, starting deep simtion for one hour, deducting 613.2 million Energy Value, remaining Energy Value 2.3 billion..." In an instant, Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness entered the simtion. Without much thought. Jiang Yifeng devoted himself entirely to the study of formations. Theplex and intricate formation made his head feel like it was about to explode after just a moment of analysis. He could only grit his teeth and persevere. Half an hourter, Jiang Yifeng fainted. He woke up half a dayter. Upon waking, Jiang Yifeng felt that his theoretical knowledge of formations had significantly improved. This made him feel that his efforts were not in vain. The hardship had paid off. In the days that followed, Jiang Yifeng continued to study formations. In fact, he spent more time fainting each day than studying. Unknowingly, more than six years passed. Jiang Yifeng finally deciphered a formation pattern. At this point, his theoretical knowledge of formations wasparable to an eighth-grade Formation Master. However, his spiritual energy was still insufficient to set up an eighth-grade formation himself. With the seven-year deadline agreed upon with the Mystic Turtle approaching, Jiang Yifeng knew it was time to leave the Endless Sea. So his deep simtion should also end. Without hesitation, he silently chanted. "End deep simtion!" As Jiang Yifeng''s words fell. His consciousness instantly returned to the Jiang Family Mansion in Green Hills City. Jiang Yifeng quickly recalled the formation knowledge in his mind. "Hahaha, I knew it would work!" Confirming that this deep simtion had indeed brought out the theoretical knowledge of an eighth-grade Formation Master, he couldn''t help butugh out loud. After a brief moment of joy, Jiang Yifeng turned his attention to the simtion panel. "In the tenth year, you have acquired the theoretical knowledge of an eighth-grade Formation Master." "This year, the time agreed upon with the Mystic Turtle to leave has arrived. The Mystic Turtle appeared on time and sent you to the coastalnd." "In the twelfth year, you returned to Green Hills City in disguise." "With your return, the legend of the Dudou Immortal, which had been gradually forgotten over the years, resurfaced." "You looked at the small mountain of dudous in your storage ring and could only shake your head helplessly." "You really didn''t want this; it''s all because of that damned talent." "In the thirteenth year, the shadowy figure Immortal ve appeared in the Jiang Family." "This time, before he could make a move, you attacked him from behind without any sense of honor." "After all, the shadowy figure was only at the ninth level of Core Formation, and you are now also at the ninth level of Core Formation, so you didn''t fear him." "In previous simtions, you didn''t make a move because you couldn''t win." "Now you are at the same level, and you know that soon your father will bring cultivators from Spine Mountain, so you can''t just watch the Jiang Family be destroyed!" "Your sneak attack didn''t work; the shadowy figure dodged it with body techniques." "Seeing that you were also at the ninth level of Core Formation, he didn''t leave immediately but engaged you in a fierce battle." "At this moment, you are evenly matched. You practice both immortal and martial arts, and you have a twelfth-grade Golden Core, so you should be able to crush him, even kill him instantly." "But unfortunately, you haven''t practiced anybat techniques; you rely on spiritual energy to fight." "Meanwhile, the opponent kept using various techniques, so you couldn''t take him down immediately, only gaining the upper hand." Chapter 59: The time had come ¡¾Not long after, your father Jiang Fushan rushed back with a group of people and saw you battling the shadowy figure.¡¿ ¡¾At that time, your father Jiang Fushan had just recently acquired his inheritance and his strength was not yet formidable. So, he quickly called for help!¡¿ ¡¾In an instant, the shadowy figure was killed by the cultivators your father brought.¡¿ ¡¾Your father Jiang Fushan was overjoyed to see you.¡¿ ¡¾After all, you had been missing for over a decade.¡¿ ¡¾He didn''t ask you how you managed to cultivate.¡¿ ¡¾Afterwards, you and your father Jiang Fushan organized the Jiang Family to evacuate.¡¿ ¡¾However, during the journey, your father and the cultivators he brought started giving you strange looks.¡¿ ¡¾It wasn''t surprising, considering that as you flew, dudous frequently appeared in your hands.¡¿¡¾You repeatedly exined that it wasn''t intentional.¡¿ ¡¾The other cultivators were skeptical, but your father Jiang Fushan didn''t believe you at all.¡¿ ¡¾After all, before you started cultivating, you were a yboy who frequented pleasure houses. Now that you had immortal techniques, it wasn''t surprising that you would steal dudous.¡¿ ¡¾He even privately warned you to keep such hobbies to yourself in the future.¡¿ ¡¾You were on the verge of tears and had to keep your distance from women.¡¿ ¡¾Fortunately, the cultivators your father brought this time were all men, otherwise, there would have been even more conflicts.¡¿ ¡¾In the fourteenth year, you arrived at Spine Mountain.¡¿ ¡¾Upon arrival, you revealed your identity as a Formation Master and helped the local cultivators set up high-grade Gathering Spirit Arrays.¡¿ ¡¾It took you two whole years toplete the setup.¡¿ ¡¾During this time, you gained the favor of some of the Spine Mountain cultivators.¡¿ ¡¾However, some women still red at you with anger!¡¿ ¡¾Most seriously, a few male cultivators even threatened to kill you.¡¿ ¡¾The reason was all due to that god-given talent of yours.¡¿ ¡¾In the end, it was Old Li who stepped in to calm everyone down!¡¿ ¡¾However, the condition everyone proposed was for you to leave Spine Mountain.¡¿ ¡¾Upon hearing this, you thought it was impossible since you still needed the Heavenly Thunder beneath Spine Mountain to train your Martial Dao!¡¿N?v(el)B\\jnn ¡¾You knew this wasn''t a solution.¡¿ ¡¾But you had already exined countless times that it wasn''t your doing; the dudous just appeared in your hands.¡¿ ¡¾You were in a difficult position!¡¿ ¡¾Finally, you suggested that Old Li observe you for a while to see how the dudous appeared, to prove your innocence.¡¿ ¡¾Old Li thought it was feasible, given that you had made a significant contribution by setting up the high-grade Gathering Spirit Arrays, and he didn''t want to misunderstand you.¡¿ ¡¾For the next six months, Old Li was practically inseparable from you.¡¿ ¡¾He constantly used his Divine Sense to monitor you, to see if you were using any techniques.¡¿ ¡¾In the end, Old Li concluded that you indeed weren''t doing it intentionally.¡¿ ¡¾The dudous just appeared out of thin air in your hands.¡¿ ¡¾Your innocence was proven.¡¿ ¡¾However, this made Old Li even more troubled.¡¿ ¡¾Since you weren''t doing it on purpose and had made significant contributions to Spine Mountain, it wouldn''t be appropriate to expel you.¡¿ ¡¾But if you stayed, what about the female cultivators, especially those with partners?¡¿ ¡¾Seeing Old Li''s dilemma, you suggested that you reside within the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya.¡¿ ¡¾You told him that as long as you stayed away from people, the dudous wouldn''t mysteriously appear in your hands.¡¿ ¡¾Old Li thought for a moment and agreed.¡¿ ¡¾He had observed over the past six months that the dudous only appeared when you were close to people!¡¿ ¡¾So he agreed to your suggestion.¡¿ ¡¾In the seventeenth year, you entered the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya.¡¿ ¡¾Initially, Old Li didn''t trust you and stayed to keep an eye on you for a while.¡¿ ¡¾In the eighteenth year, Old Li left, as he had other matters to attend to and couldn''t monitor you indefinitely.¡¿ ¡¾Moreover, you had behaved well over the past year, merely observing the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya without tampering with it.¡¿ ¡¾But in reality, during that year, you had already pinpointed the exact location where the Heavenly Thunder was being channeled.¡¿ ¡¾However, with Old Li around, you didn''t set up the Thunder Conduction Formation.¡¿ ¡¾From thest simtion, you knew that the people of Spine Mountain wouldn''t allow you to tamper with formations at will.¡¿ ¡¾In the neenth year, you worried that Old Li might return, as you hadn''t fully earned his trust.¡¿ ¡¾So, you continued to study the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya without setting up the Thunder Conduction Formation.¡¿ ¡¾Your suspicions were correct; Old Li did return twice that year.¡¿ ¡¾In the blink of an eye, two more years passed, and Old Li didn''t return.¡¿ ¡¾In the twenty-second year, you felt that you might not need to wait any longer.¡¿ ¡¾After all, you hadn''t done anything to betray Spine Mountain, and your father Jiang Fushan was also there, so they shouldn''t monitor you so closely.¡¿ ¡¾That year, you went to the predetermined location and set up an inverted seventh-grade Thunder Conduction Formation.¡¿ ¡¾As soon as the formation took shape, lightning shed and struck you.¡¿ ¡¾You were severely injured instantly.¡¿ ¡¾But soon, under the influence of the Yimu Divine Body, you began to recover.¡¿ ¡¾During this recovery process, your Martial Dao cultivation also improved.¡¿ ¡¾In the following days, you immersed yourself in continuous body training.¡¿ ¡¾In the twenty-third year, your Martial Dao cultivation broke through to the fourth level of the Qi Motion Realm.¡¿ ¡¾In the twenty-fourth year, your Martial Dao cultivation broke through to the fifth level of the Qi Motion Realm.¡¿ ¡¾In the twenty-fifth year, you reached the sixth level of the Qi Motion Realm, but by then, the power of the lightning was no longer enough to severely injure you, slowing your Martial Dao progress.¡¿ ¡¾In the twenty-sixth year, you began modifying the Thunder Conduction Formation to increase the intensity of the lightning.¡¿ ¡¾In the twenty-seventh year, due to the increased lightning intensity, your Martial Dao cultivation began to advance rapidly again, breaking through to the seventh level of the Qi Motion Realm that year.¡¿ ¡¾In the blink of an eye, several years passed.¡¿ ¡¾In the thirtieth year, your Martial Dao reached the peak of the Qi Motion Realm.¡¿ ¡¾In the thirty-first year, you dismantled the Thunder Conduction Formation and focused entirely on cultivating your Immortal Dao.¡¿ ¡¾In the thirty-sixth year, your Immortal Dao cultivation finally reached the peak of the Core Formation stage from the ninth level.¡¿ ¡¾At this point, both your Martial Dao and Immortal Dao were at the brink of a breakthrough.¡¿ ¡¾You knew the time hade.¡¿ ¡¾So, you left the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya.¡¿ ¡¾As soon as you emerged, the female cultivators of Spine Mountain, recalling the awkwardness from one or two decades ago, were so frightened that they didn''t dare to leave their homes.¡¿ Chapter 60: Together through the Desert of Death [You ignored their reactions and went straight to find Old Li.] [You told him clearly that you wanted to break through and asked for his protection.] [This time, Old Li hadn''t checked your situation and didn''t know you had a twelfth-grade Golden Core. He thought you were making a fuss over nothing.] [He believed that breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage was no big deal as long as no one disturbed you!] [Although Old Li thought this, he still agreed to your request.] [Actually, you asked Old Li to protect you just in case.] [After all, you are different from ordinary cultivators. When you broke through to the Core Formation stage, you caused quite amotion.] [After getting Old Li''s promise, you chose to start the breakthrough immediately.] [Breaking through from the Core Formation stage to the Nascent Soul stage in the Immortal Dao involves breaking the core and transforming it into a nascent soul.][This allows the nascent soul within your body to be your second life.] [Once the transformation is sessful, as long as the nascent soul remains intact, you can seize another body and be reborn!] [In the Martial Dao, breaking through from the Qi Motion Realm to the True Core Realm involves releasing primordial energy to form a protective shield, giving you an additionalyer of passive protection in battle.] [However, your situation is different now. You are practicing both the Immortal Dao and Martial Dao, and you don''t really know how to break through.] [You can only choose to break through the Immortal Dao and Martial Dao one by one and see if they react to each other.] [Your Martial Dao breakthrough went smoothly, and you soon cultivated a protective shield, quickly reaching the firstyer of the True Core Realm.] [But when you wanted to break through your Immortal Dao cultivation, you were dumbfounded.] [What was going on? How did your Golden Core also have a shield, looking exactly like the protective shield?] [You were a bit helpless. Breaking through from the Core Formation stage to the Nascent Soul stage involves using primordial energy to break the outeryer of the Golden Core and transform it into a nascent soul.] [Now, you have to break the protective shield around the Golden Core first, undoubtedly increasing the difficulty of the breakthrough.] [You wondered if you had gotten the order wrong and should have broken through the Immortal Dao first, then the Martial Dao.] [But you didn''t know that if you broke through the Immortal Dao first, the difficulty of breaking through the Martial Dao would also increase.] [This is the result of practicing the Divine Dao. To gain greater power, you naturally have to endure greater difficulties.] [Due to the increased difficulty, it took you a whole month toplete the Immortal Dao breakthrough, reaching the firstyer of the Nascent Soul stage.] [You looked at the nascent soul within you, which was a miniature version of yourself.] [Your nascent soul was different from others because it also had ayer of primordial energy shield.] [Obviously, you knew this would make your nascent soul even stronger.] [Everything went smoothly during the breakthrough, and there were no heavenly phenomena; it was just a false rm.] [Old Li saw you hadpleted the breakthrough and took his leave, telling you not to make such a fuss in the future, as breakthroughs weren''t that dangerous.] [You thanked him profusely.] [In the thirty-seventh year, you began cultivating the Immortal Dao again.] [In the thirty-eighth year, you found Old Li and told him that Senior Lu Wuya''s formation might have a problem and you wanted to find someone to help repair it.] [Although you thought this suggestion would likely be rejected, since thest simtion had proven this point, you thought, "What if?"] [The final result was no "what if." After discussing, Old Li and the others did not agree with your opinion.] [To prevent you from acting on your own, they even found you a ce to live in a remote area of Spine Mountain.] [You no longer had to live within Lu Wuya''s formation.] [In the forty-first year, Old Li hurriedly found you, saying that Senior Lu Wuya''s formation had shown some anomalies and seemed to be on the verge of copse, asking you to take a look.]n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om [You shook your head and said it was toote, urging everyone to evacuate immediately.] [The people of Spine Mountain didn''t understand and your warning had no effect.] [They thought you were sulking because they hadn''t listened to you before and checked the formation.] [As a result, many people from Spine Mountain came to your small hill to plead with you, hoping you would not hold a grudge against them.] [Finally, after your repeated confirmation, Old Li believed you!] [Disheartened, he began to evacuate the people of Spine Mountain.] [Unfortunately, it was toote. Just as everyone was evacuating, the formation copsed, and many cultivators'' families perished.] [However, thanks to your warning, most of the cultivators managed to survive.] [In the forty-second year, Old Li found Jiang Fushan, who was in seclusion outside, and exined the situation at Spine Mountain.] [It was now almost certain that the cultivators of the Southern Regions had no way out except to venture into thends of fierce beasts, escape the sealednd, or face certain death when the Heavenly Thunder descended.] [Your father, Jiang Fushan, upon hearing this, said without hesitation that he was now at the Eighth Layer of Tribtion and was willing to attract the attention of the fierce beasts to give others a chance to escape.] [However, your father, Jiang Fushan, made it clear that Old Li must protect you!] [That''s right, in this simtion, you didn''t leave alone but chose to act with the people of Spine Mountain.] [You felt that since you had already achieved your goal in this simtion, there was no point in hiding for another ten years, as it wouldn''t improve much.] [You wanted to see for yourself what the oue would be if you ventured into the Desert of Death.] [After all, you had previously thought that these people couldn''t escape the Desert of Death based on their strengthpared to the dangers.] [This time, you wanted to verify it with your own eyes.] [In the forty-third year, all the cultivators of Spine Mountain, led by your father, headed straight for the Desert of Death, and you were among them.] [Along the way, you were ambushed several times by people from the Immortal Arrival Sect!] [But after the sect leader, Shen Wuyou, was severely injured by a single palm strike from your father, Jiang Fushan, no one dared toe close again, only following from a distance.] [You paid no attention to those people and continued straight towards the Desert of Death.] [At this point, you understood the confusion from the previous simtion.] [It wasn''t that the Immortal Arrival Sect hadn''t tried to stop these cultivators from entering the Desert of Death.] [It was that they couldn''t win and didn''t dare to!] [After entering the Desert of Death, your father, Jiang Fushan, gave you a nce before heading alone towards the Demonic Dragon''sir.] [You felt a pang of sadness and wanted to stop him, but you kept reminding yourself: This is a simtion, this is a simtion!] [In the end, you didn''t say much, just rushed up to give your father, Jiang Fushan, a hug.] [Shortly after your father left, you sensed the desert churning.] [You knew the Demonic Dragon had emerged.] [Soon, everyone could see your father, Jiang Fushan, already fighting the Demonic Dragon.] [At the same time, demonic pythons began appearing throughout the Desert of Death.] [At this moment, Old Li stepped forward and told everyone to scatter and escape through the Desert of Death, leaving their fate to destiny.] [This was a consensus reached before setting out, and no one said much.] [Everyone dispersed in small groups, each trying to survive.] [But you were different. Because of your father, Jiang Fushan''s instructions, Old Li would take you with him.] [Being with a master at the Seventh Layer of Tribtion, your chances of survival were significantly higher than others.] [But no one said much about it. Everyone knew that your father, Jiang Fushan, was risking his life to distract the Demonic Dragon, essentially trading his life for yours!] Chapter 61: New Talent, Child of Fortune [Your eyes welled up as you nced at your father, Jiang Fushan, before following Old Li into the depths of the Desert of Death, speeding away.] [Along the way, Demonic Pythons appeared frequently.] [But facing Old Li, a formidable expert at the Seventh Layer of Tribtion Crossing, these Demonic Pythons were no match at all.] [Two days passed in the blink of an eye.] [With Old Li''s cultivation, flying at full speed with you, it was possible to have covered hundreds of thousands of kilometers.] [Yet, you still hadn''t found the gap in the sealing formation.] [The depths of the Desert of Death were farrger than imagined, and Old Li and hispanions had no idea where the gap in the formation was, relying on luck to search.] [Another two days passed, and you suddenly heard the roar of a Demonic Dragon approaching from afar.] [Old Li''s expression changed slightly, and he flung you away.][He shouted at you, "Run!"] [Then, you saw Old Li charge toward the Demonic Dragon.] [Seeing the Demonic Dragon, sorrow filled your heart. It seemed your father, Jiang Fushan, had indeed fallen.] [Now, Old Li''s intention was clear: he was going to hold off the Demonic Dragon to buy you time to escape, which meant his fate was sealed as well.] [Filled with grief and anger, you didn''t hesitate and ran with all your might.] [You knew this was no time for sentimentality.] [Half a day passed in an instant, and the dragon''s roar echoed again.] [You looked at the enormous Demonic Dragon, powerless to resist.] [You died at the age of 63!] [This simtion has ended.] [You may choose two rewards from this simtion: Divine Hand (Talent), Martial Dao Cultivation (True Core Realm, First Layer), Immortal Dao Cultivation (Elemental Infant Realm, First Layer)] [Divine Hand (Talent): Costs 1 million Energy Value.] [Martial Dao Cultivation (True Core Realm, First Layer): Costs 10 million Energy Value.] [Immortal Dao Cultivation (Elemental Infant Realm, First Layer): Costs 10 million Energy Value.] [Important Note: Due to the host cultivating the Divine Dao, your cultivation has already broken through a major realm. You must choose both Immortal Dao and Martial Dao cultivation simultaneously, or you will be unable to advance.] Jiang Yifeng was stunned by the simtor''s final prompt. Cultivating the Divine Dao came with suchplications! Did this mean that every time he broke through a major realm, he would have to choose both Martial Dao and Immortal Dao?n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om It seemed that future simtions would need more careful nning, with intentional control over his cultivation level. After all, he needed to save exchange opportunities for better talents and variousbat techniques. Since Martial Dao and Immortal Dao had to be chosen together, there was no dilemma about this simtion''s rewards. "Ugh!" Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng thought, even if he didn''t have to choose both, he wouldn''t pick the Divine Hand talent, which was only good for holding a dudou. So, he silently made his choice. "I choose Martial Dao Cultivation and Immortal Dao Cultivation!" He made his decision. [Ding, Martial Dao Cultivation (True Core Realm, First Layer) sessfully extracted, deducting 10 million Energy Value, remaining Energy Value: 2.2 billion...] [Ding, Immortal Dao Cultivation (Elemental Infant Realm, First Layer) sessfully extracted, deducting 10 million Energy Value, remaining Energy Value: 2.2 billion...] As soon as the simtor''s voice fell, Jiang Yifeng sensed changes within his body. Two minutester, the enhancement wasplete. At this moment, Jiang Yifeng began to recall the details of this simtion. Besides the cultivation improvement, he had attempted to escape the sealednd again. However, just as he had suspected, forcefully breaking through the Desert of Death was not feasible. Of course, Jiang Yifeng didn''t consider this a wasted effort. Instead, he felt this attempt had shown him an opportunity. After his father, Jiang Fushan, had dyed the Demonic Dragon, it took four days for the dragon to catch up. If he could pinpoint the exact location of the formation''s gap in the Desert of Death, there might be a chance to break through. Jiang Yifeng thought that perhaps in future simtions, he could ask the Mystic Turtle of the Endless Sea. It might know. "Sigh, there''s still a week left. I can think it over slowly. For now, let''s go listen to some music!" Finally, Jiang Yifeng muttered to himself and walked out the door. Time flew by! In the blink of an eye, a week had passed. The simtion count had refreshed. Jiang Yifeng returned to his room and silentlymanded. "Start simtion!" [One simtion attempt consumed, remaining attempts: 0] [Drawing Blue Talent costs 100,000 Energy Value, drawing Purple Talent costs 1 million Energy Value, please choose!] "Draw Purple Talent." [Ding, 1 million Energy Value deducted, drawing Purple Talent, remaining Energy Value: 2.2 billion...] [Congrattions, host, you have obtained the talent: Child of Fortune.] [Child of Fortune: Luck is on your side, resources and opportunities wille to you!] (Note: Although your luck is extraordinary, provoking enemies far stronger than yourself still means certain death.) Jiang Yifeng''s eyes lit up at this talent. Child of Fortune? This talent was fantastic. So, after this simtion, this talent was a must-have. With this in mind, Jiang Yifeng felt more confident about this simtion. He knew roughly what to do. Thus, he immediately looked at the simtion panel. [The 19th simtion begins.] [You realize you have entered the simtion.] [On the first day, you choose to leave Green Hills City under the cover of night.] [As soon as you step out of the Jiang Family Mansion, you see a silver note worth a thousand taels on the street.] [You nce at it, but can''t be bothered to pick up such a small amount of money.] [On the second morning, you arrive at the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple in the Evergreen Mountain Range.] [You clear the ruins and bury the remains found there.] [On the third day, you begin serious cultivation of the Immortal Dao.] [On the tenth day, while cultivating, you are startled by a noise.] [You discover a Spirit Stone has fallen beside you.] [How could a Spirit Stone fall from the sky?] [Is the Child of Fortune talent really this outrageous?] [Soon, you find out why, as the person who dropped the Spirit Stone appears before you.] [The neer is just a Core Formation, First Layer cultivator, while you are already at the Nascent Soul stage. Even without using the Eye of Insight, you can tell.] [Despite this, you use the Eye of Insight to confirm the person''s identity.] [If they are a local cultivator, you can let it go since you don''tck a single Spirit Stone.] [But if they are an Immortal ve, well, you wouldn''t mind taking that Spirit Stone.] [Soon, you identify the person, and with a smirk, you leap forward, unleashing a torrent of spiritual energy.] [You crush the Immortal ve with an overwhelming amount of spiritual energy.] [You p your hands and mutter, "So weak!"] [Then you walk over to the corpse and take their storage ring.] [To avoid attracting other Immortal ves, you perform a cremation, scattering even the ashes.] Chapter 62: Compete with my father for the inheritance? No, I refuse [Year One, you spent it uneventfully.] [Aside from asionally picking up some spirit stones and having wild beasts deliver themselves to you when you were hungry, the talent of this Child of Fortune was just "so-so."] [After a year of cultivating with spirit stones, not only did you not use up your own, but you also ended up with thousands more in your storage ring.] [Year Two, still the same monotonous cultivation.] [Year Three, Bai Ruoxue arrived.] [After examining you, she asked if you would like to be her disciple; you agreed!] [Three dayster, she said she could help you escape this sealednd and asked if you were willing to leave.] [You didn''t hesitate and nodded immediately.][Wasn''t your purpose ining here to hitch a ride?] [A few dayster, Bai Ruoxue took you to the Endless Sea.] [As soon as you approached, the Mystic Turtle emerged from the sea.] [Bai Ruoxue tried to bribe it, but the Mystic Turtle subdued both of you instantly.] [In the end, the Mystic Turtle threw Bai Ruoxue out of the sealednd, telling her to bring 1 billion spirit stones to take you away.] [You were taken by the Mystic Turtle to an ind in the Endless Sea.] [Upon arriving, youid your cards on the table, pointing out that both you and the Mystic Turtle were prisoners, and you said you hade specifically to find it!] [The Mystic Turtle scrutinized you upon hearing this and then suddenly burst intoughter.] [It asked why you were looking for it.] [With your previous simtion experience, you knew the Mystic Turtle mistook you for a pawn of some great figure from the heavens.] [But you didn''t care about that.] [You directly asked it where the sealing rift in the Desert of Death was!] [The Mystic Turtle looked at the sky as if wary of something, then after a moment, it transmitted four words to you: "At the bottom of the desert!"] [Upon receiving the answer, you were thrilled, feeling that your chance to leave the Southern Regions and this sealednd was growing.] [After that, you didn''t leave but instead told the Mystic Turtle you wanted toprehend the sealing formation here to improve your Formation Dao.] [The Mystic Turtle didn''t refuse any of your requests, only stating that you must leave in seven years.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this. Without hesitation, he silently muttered. "Start a deep simtion for seven years!" This was all part of the n. Since formation knowledge could be gained through deep simtion, he couldn''t waste the opportunity to exchange rewards at the end of the simtion. Moreover, deep simtion consumed less energy than direct exchange. [Ding, starting a seven-year deep simtion, consuming 613.2 million energy points, remaining energy points: 1.6 billion...] Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness appeared in the simtion. Without any hesitation, he walked towards the depths of the ind. To analyze andprehend the sealing formation. Seven years passed in the blink of an eye. The deep simtion ended! At this moment, Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness had returned to the Jiang Family Mansion in Green Hills City. This deep simtion had greatly benefited him. But he wasn''t sure exactly how much he had improved. Perhaps he would only know once he could fully set up an eighth-grade formation, understanding the extent of his theoretical knowledge. Feeling the spiritual energy within his body, Jiang Yifeng thought it wouldn''t be long. Maybe with a bit more advancement, he could set up an eighth-grade formation. Without dwelling on these issues, Jiang Yifeng turned his gaze to the simtion panel. [Year Ten, you were brought back tond by the Mystic Turtle.] [After bidding farewell to the Mystic Turtle, you left.] [Year Twelve, you returned to Green Hills City.] [In the same year, you felt the ground of Green Hills City tremble, and a crack appeared.] [You fell to the underground and saw arge bronze hall.] [Inside the hall, there was a green light orb.] [For a moment, you were stunned.] [You thought this should be the inheritance your father, Jiang Fushan, had obtained!] [Why did ite to you this time?] [Suddenly, you realized it must be the talent of the Child of Fortune at work.] [Should you seize this inheritance from your father? You hesitated.] [You kept weighing the pros and cons; this time, you were determined to take the Child of Fortune talent.] [But doing so meant you couldn''t exchange for two cultivation levels.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [And if you couldn''t exchange for two cultivation levels, at the end of the simtion, the highest you could exchange for in Immortal Dao would be Nascent Soulpletion.] [After all, you are currently cultivating Divine Dao, and the simtor had warned that both Immortal and Martial must break through simultaneously, or you couldn''t advance to a higher realm.] [This restriction must be followed even in reality.] [You cursed in your heart: "Damn system, so many restrictions."] [You thought if you could exchange for more rewards after the simtion, you wouldn''t be so conflicted.] [In the end, you shook your head and chose to refuse this Immortal Dao inheritance.] [Actually, besides the simtor''s restrictions, you had other thoughts in your mind.] [You believed that after obtaining the Child of Fortune talent, you would have more opportunities to get the inheritance in the future.] [This time, your n was to join your father and others to explore the Desert of Death.] [If you took the inheritance, you worried your father''s cultivation wouldn''t reach the Tribtion Crossing stage, and no one could stop the Demonic Dragon.] [After making your decision, you turned and left.] [The inheritance didn''t stay in ce either; it seemed to know you had refused it and disappeared instantly.] [Only a devastated Green Hills City remained.] [Fortunately, you had chosen a remote part of Green Hills City to hide your identity, so not many civilians suffered.] [Two days passed in a sh, and you saw the shadowy figure Yang Zuo appear in the crack where the inheritance had emerged in Green Hills City.] [You smirked and muttered to yourself: "Finally, I''ve been waiting for you!"] [You knew that this shadowy figure Yang Zuo first appeared where the inheritance emerged.] [But your father was teleported away by the inheritance, and he only found the Jiang Family in the thirteenth year.] [This time, although you didn''t ept the inheritance and it disappeared, themotion would surely attract this Immortal ve.] [So you had set up an ambush early on.] [When the shadowy figure Yang Zuo approached, you decisivelyunched a sneak attack with all your might.] [With your Nascent Soul stage attacking a Core Formation stage, what could go wrong? You severely injured him with one move.] [After the first strike, you didn''t give him time to react, bombarding him with spiritual energy as if it cost nothing!] [A few minutester, the shadowy figure Yang Zuo turned to ashes.] [You finally killed the shadowy figure Yang Zuo, who had been appearing since the first simtion, with your own strength.] [A heartfelt smile appeared on your face.] [Your current strength was exposed.] [To avoid more trouble, you took action one after another, killing all the Immortal ves hidden in Green Hills City.] [Two months passed, and you saw your father return from outside Green Hills City.] [He was alone, and you immediately saw that your father, Jiang Fushan, had reached the fifth level of Foundation Establishment.] [It seemed that the inheritance you refused had indeed found your father, just as you had guessed!] [At that moment, you suddenly thought, now that your father had returned.] [Without being hunted by the shadowy figure Yang Zuo, could he still meet the people from Spine Mountain?] [Then how would you go to Spine Mountain afterwards?] [You pped your forehead and sighed: "Impulsive!"] [You felt you shouldn''t have killed the shadowy figure Yang Zuo for a moment of satisfaction!] Chapter 63: Goodbye, Wu Youdao [Year Thirteen, just as you expected, the cultivators from Spine Mountain did not appear.] [During this year, your father Jiang Fushan stayed in the Jiang Family Mansion, focusing on his cultivation.] [He rarely involved himself in other matters and didn''t leave the mansion, so how could he encounter anyone from Spine Mountain?] [Year Fourteen, you realized that waiting for the people from Spine Mountain in Green Hills City was futile.] [Since that was the case, you decided not to stay in Green Hills City any longer.] [After all, in this simtion, you felt that going to Spine Mountain wasn''t that important.] [Especially since you didn''t n to cultivate Martial Dao this time, you didn''t need to borrow the Heavenly Thunder from beneath Spine Mountain.] [The night before leaving Green Hills City, you secretly returned to the Jiang Family Mansion.] [You left most of your resources for your father, Jiang Fushan¡ªsix hundred thousand spirit stones.][Without waiting for your father to ask why, you turned and left immediately.] [You believed that since your father could reach the Eighth Layer of Tribtion in just thirty years with limited resources through inheritance,] [his talent must be exceptional.] [So this time, you left most of your resources for him, hoping it might help him advance further.] [As for yourself? You picked up a spirit stone lying by your feet, not knowing who had dropped it, and put it into your storage ring.] [Resources? Aren''t they just lying around everywhere?] [Actually, your current actions were also in preparation for the time when you would venture into the Desert of Death. If your father became stronger, the sess rate would surely be higher.] [That''s right, you thought that even if the people from Spine Mountain couldn''t find your father, you knew roughly when they would venture into the Desert of Death. You figured you could ask your father to help out then!] [After finishing everything, you left Green Hills City and headed west.] [As for why you went west, it was because you knew that north of the sealing formation was the Desert of Death, east was the Valley of mes, and south was the Endless Sea.] [So based on your deduction, the west must be the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [You nned to observe it from a distance.] [Along the way, you didn''t just focus on traveling; you also spent a lot of time cultivating the Immortal Dao.] [Year Fifteen, you passed by a ce called Sunset Mountain and identally found a spirit liquid pool.] [This discovery delighted you.] [Based on the "Annotations on Cultivation Knowledge" you got from Bai Ruoxue in previous simtions, you knew that spirit liquid was a hundred times more precious than spirit stones.] [Outside the Southern Regions, spirit stones were more like currency, used only by those with low cultivation levels.] [High-level cultivators used spirit liquid or other rare treasures.] [You had been using spirit stones for cultivation because, in the perilous Southern Regions, you couldn''t obtain better resources.] [Looking at the pool of spirit liquid, you fell into deep thought.] [Should you use the spirit liquid now or save it to take out of the simtion?] [In the end, you shook your head and chose to cultivate there, using the spirit liquid directly.] [In the same year, your Immortal Dao cultivation sessfully broke through to the secondyer of the Nascent Soul stage!] [Year Seventeen, you broke through to the thirdyer of the Nascent Soul stage.] [Year Twenty, you broke through to the fourthyer of the Nascent Soul stage.] [Year Twenty-Two, you triggered your talent for random enlightenment, gaining ten times the cultivation speed and heightened mental rity!] [This enlightenmentsted for six months, and your Immortal Dao cultivation directly reached the sixthyer of the Nascent Soul stage!] [When the enlightenment ended, you nced at the spirit liquid pool and found itpletely dried up.] [So you determined your direction and continued westward!] [Year Twenty-Four, after traversing countless mountains and rivers, you finally saw the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [From a distance, you could hear the sound of swords shing and feel a chilling killing intent.] [You thought that the fierce beasts here might be the most troublesome, aside from the Mystic Turtle!] [The killing intent was too intense.] [You decided it was best not to provoke them and immediately abandoned the idea of getting closer.] [Just as you were about to leave, you saw a figure in the distance!] [Your heart tightened: "Why is he here?"] [Yes, you recognized this person!] [It was Wu Youdao.] [After Wu Youdao took your silver note to exterminate bandits, you hadn''t seen him since.] [You couldn''t understand why he would appear in the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [With such a long distance, even if Wu Youdao had been traveling this way for over twenty years, it would be hard for a mortal body to make it here!] [Could it be someone who just looked like him?] [You couldn''t help but use the Eye of Insight to investigate.] [Wu Youdao: Reincarnation of the White Tiger, memories awakened!] [Current Martial Dao cultivation at the ninthyer of the Golden Body Realm (originally at the peak of the Martial Saint Realm, but fell due to forced reincarnation), possesses the intent of the Killing Dao, capable of fighting above his level!] ["WTF!" You gasped.] [What the hell, Wu Youdao is this powerful?] [You had learned from the nameless technique you got from Wu Youdao that the Martial Dao realms were divided into Body Tempering Realm, Condensing Yuan Realm, Qi Motion Realm, True Core Realm, Unity Realm, Golden Body Realm, Immovable Realm, Transcendent Realm, Semi-Saint, and Martial Saint Realm...] [These corresponded to all the realms in the Immortal Dao.] [The Golden Body Realm was equivalent to the Void Refinement Realm in cultivation.] [He was undoubtedly a top expert.] [And the original Martial Saint Realm surpassed the Tribtion Crossing stage in the Immortal Dao, matching the power of the Immortal Realm.] [And he could fight above his level, terrifying!] [Suddenly, you seemed to realize something!] [The sealednd had four fierce beasts: you had seen the Demonic Dragon, the Demonic Phoenix, and the Mystic Turtle. If your guess was correct, the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords should be the Tiger!] [And now you saw Wu Youdao''s information, reincarnation of the White Tiger!] [In an instant, you had a bad premonition!] [At that moment!] [You saw Wu Youdao appear in front of you in an instant.] [Without a word, he threw you into the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [As soon as younded in the forest, you were affected by the endless killing intent.] [Your eyes turned slightly red and violent; you had a strong urge to kill!] [Fortunately, you were still at the edge of the forest and could barely control yourself.] [You couldn''t imagine the extent of the killing intent you''d face if you ventured deeper; most people would probably turn into killing machines!]N?v(el)B\\jnn [You didn''t dare stay in the forest and quickly ran out.] [But just as you exited, Wu Youdao appeared again and pped you back into the forest!] [You were puzzled and confused.] [Based on your deduction, you thought Wu Youdao was the reincarnation of the White Tiger, making him likely the reincarnation of the fierce beast here!] [You believed there was at least a fifty percent chance your guess was correct!] [If that were the case, you could understand if he wanted to kill you!] [But what did this mean?] [You were baffled. Was he torturing you?] [No, you didn''t think it was that simple.] [You thought of the Mystic Turtle; since it was imprisoned, could the White Tiger also be imprisoned here?] [Then, to break free from the restraints, it forcibly reincarnated as a human!] [Thinking of this, your eyes brightened; this matched the information you saw with the Eye of Insight.] [If that were the case, Wu Youdao''s current actions towards you shouldn''t be harmful; after all, you were in the same boat.] [There must be a deeper meaning!] [Having figured this out, you didn''t dwell on it further!] [You started cultivating amidst the killing intent.] [Whether your guess was right or not, you felt that with Wu Youdao outside, you couldn''t leave anyway!] Chapter 64: Treat you as a successor [Year 25: After so much time has passed, you can now withstand the killing intent at the edge of the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [But you can feel that your own temperament has be more violent.] [Year 26: Wu Youdao appears again. He calmly steps into the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords, grabs you with one hand, and throws you deeper into the forest!]N?v(el)B\\jnn [The deeper you go into the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords, the stronger the killing intent bes. As soon as yound, you are instantly engulfed by it.] [The terrifying killing intent directly affects your mind.] [You can no longer control yourself. All you can think about is killing, killing, killing everything!] [At this moment, Wu Youdao ps you hard on the head, and you instantly regain your senses.] [But soon, the killing intent strikes again, and you feel yourself about to lose your consciousness once more.] [You can''t help but shout, "Why!"][You had thought that Wu Youdao might be trying to train you or help youprehend killing intent or something!] [But the killing intent in this ce has clearly exceeded your tolerance.] [This is no longer training; you know that if you stay here for long, you will be nothing more than a killing machine!] [Just before you lose your consciousness again, Wu Youdao coldly says, "Hmph, you have talent butck a resilient mind."] [Wu Youdao is currently quite disdainful. He can''t understand why, before his memory awakened, he would give the first part of the War God Art to someone as useless as you!] [You can''t even withstand such a slight amount of killing intent.] [But after you lose your consciousness, Wu Youdao keeps waking you up again and again.] [This cycle continues for over ten years.] [There is now a faint trace of killing intent emanating from you.] [This is because you have nowprehended a sliver of killing intent, which counts as an entry-level understanding.] [Now, in the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords, you can move freely in all areas except the central region, where the killing intent is most overwhelming.] [At this moment, Wu Youdao appears beside you.] [He says to you coldly, "There have been no fierce beasts guarding this ce for a long time."] [If you can withstand the killing intent in the central region, this ce will be the safest route to leave the Southern Regions!"] [After saying this, Wu Youdao nces at you, drops a book, and steps into the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [You are not too surprised by Wu Youdao''s words!] [After all, you had already guessed through the Eye of Insight that Wu Youdao might be the reincarnation of the fierce beast guarding this ce.] [Since the guardian beast is no longer here, leaving the Southern Regions from here must be the simplest way.] [Those who don''t know the inside story would never guess this by just looking at the killing intent outside the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [You look at the book Wu Youdao left behind, and see the threerge characters "War God Art" written on it!] [After some investigation, you discover that this is actually the continuation of the nameless cultivation method.] [To be precise, the nameless cultivation method is just the introductory chapter of the War God Art, recording the realms of Martial Dao and basic training methods!] [And the War God Art, like the mental cultivation methods of the Immortal Dao, is aplete set of Martial Dao techniques.] [Practicing it can elerate the progress and power of Martial Dao.] [Moreover, the War God Artes with matchingbat techniques.] [Thesebat techniques are exactly what you currentlyck.] [You have always struggled with having cultivation but nobat techniques.] [Although these are Martial Daobat techniques, it doesn''t matter; after all, you practice both Immortal and Martial Dao, and Martial Dao techniques are not inferior to Immortal techniques!] [In the early stages of your cultivation, it was Wu Youdao who guided you.] [And over these ten years, he helped youprehend a sliver of killing intent.] [Now, he has given you such a great gift. Watching Wu Youdao''s departing figure, you feel a bit emotional.] [You think to yourself: I owe him a lot.] [You even feel that Wu Youdao has been excessively kind to you.] [However, you quickly realize that Wu Youdao seems to be nning to leave the Southern Regions.] [Given his understanding of killing intent, could he take you with him?] [You quickly shout, hoping he will take you along.] [But Wu Youdao just waves his hand and says that you have to rely on yourself!] [Actually, you have no idea that Wu Youdao just wants to train you.] [He was originally thest White Tiger in the world, and now, after reincarnation, he has no rtives.] [And you, having been taught the nameless cultivation method before his memory awakened,] [Can be considered his only connection, almost like a half-disciple!] [What he is about to do now is basically a life-or-death mission.] [He has now left all his martial arts to you, making you his true sessor!] [He doesn''t want his sessor to be a waste; he hopes you can carve out a path for yourself.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this and couldn''t help butin in his heart. Training can wait untilter; what''s the point of training now? Besides, I just want to be a waste! Unfortunately, Jiang Yifeng could onlyin to himself. Although he could influence his simted self, he couldn''t affect Wu Youdao in the simtion. In the end, Jiang Yifeng could only sigh and continue looking at the simtor panel! [After Wu Youdao leaves, you also decide to leave the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [Although you now know that this ce is a way to leave the Southern Regions!] [But the killing intent in the central region is hundreds of times stronger than in the surrounding areas.] [You estimate that without a cultivator who hasprehended killing intent, even someone at the Tribtion Crossing stage or a Martial Dao Semi-Saint would be corroded by the killing intent and turned into a killing puppet.] [Unless yourprehension of killing intent greatly improves, it''s impossible to pass through here and leave the Southern Regions!] [As for continuing toprehend killing intent here, you have thought about it, but now, forty years have passed in the simtion, and you don''t have much time left.] [You can''t make a huge breakthrough in such a short time.] [Given this, you think it''s better to head to the Desert of Death sooner.] [Maybe when the people from Spine Mountain are breaking through the Desert of Death, you might find the formation rift at the bottom of the desert!] [However, before that, you need to return to Green Hills City to find your father, Jiang Fushan.] [After all, the people from Spine Mountain probably can''t withstand a few attacks from the Demonic Dragon.] [Year 42: You return to Green Hills City and find that the Jiang Family is no longer there. After inquiring, you learn that they had moved away long ago.] [You are momentarily stunned, guessing that the cultivators from Spine Mountain might have eventually found your father, Jiang Fushan.] [Otherwise, you can''t think of any other reason that would make your father move the entire Jiang Family.] [So, without stopping, you rush at full speed towards the Desert of Death.] [Year 43: When you arrive at the Desert of Death, you see the people from Spine Mountain trying to force their way through the desert.] [This time, the one fighting the Demonic Dragon is still your father, Jiang Fushan.] [Seeing this, you sigh inwardly, realizing that he has indeed joined forces with the cultivators from Spine Mountain.] [However, this time, your father Jiang Fushan''s cultivation has reached the ninth level of the Tribtion Crossing stage, higher than in previous simtions.] [You think it must be because you gave your father Jiang Fushan hundreds of thousands of spirit stones, which made a difference.] [After all, in previous simtions, you saw that your father Jiang Fushan had no resources and relied purely on talent and hard work for cultivation.] [Now, with your support of arge number of spirit stones, his higher cultivation level seems reasonable.] [You watch as your father Jiang Fushan battles the Demonic Dragon, and they seem evenly matched.] [Seeing this, you think that perhaps this time, there really is a chance to defeat the Demonic Dragon.] Chapter 65: Dragon Soul of Resentment [While your father, Jiang Fushan, was battling the Demonic Dragon, you went directly to Old Li.] [You told him that the crack in the formation was at the bottom of the desert.] [You did this because, with your current cultivation level, you couldn''t see the bottom of the desert.] [As for using escape techniques? You didn''t know any. Even if you did, you couldn''t possibly explore the entire bottom of the desert. The Desert of Death is simply too vast!] [You remember from thest simtion that Old Li, who was at the Seventh Layer of Tribtion, flew with you for several days and still didn''t fully traverse it.] [You even suspect that the Desert of Death might be asrge as the current inhabited area of the Southern Regions!] [Old Li was skeptical about your words.] [After all, in this simtion, you hadn''t met Old Li, nor had you spent much time together.] [However, Old Li thought that if what you said was true, it could save a lot of search time.][The key point was that even at the bottom of the desert, with his Seventh Layer of Tribtion cultivation, he could still detect something from above the desert if he deliberately searched.] [The only cost would be using a bit more Divine Sense.] [So, Old Li kept your words in mind.] [However, because you arrived at the Desert of Deathte, you didn''t have a chance to meet your father, Jiang Fushan.] [Old Li didn''t know about your rtionship, so he didn''t take you along when he went to find the crack in the formation.] [You didn''t mind this.] [Your goal was simply to find out if the crack in the formation was really at the bottom of the desert!] [Two dayster, Old Li indeed found the crack in the sealing formation at the bottom of the desert.] [The battle between the Demonic Dragon and your father, Jiang Fushan, was still ongoing, and it was temporarily safe. Old Li didn''t leave alone.] [Instead, he chose to inform everyone of the coordinates, including you.] [When you arrived at the crack in the formation, the ce was already crowded with people, all of them cultivators from Spine Mountain.] [The area didn''t look like a desert at all; the ground was covered in blue stone.] [After inquiring, you learned that many people, like you, had insufficient cultivation or didn''t know escape techniques and couldn''t reach the bottom of the desert on their own.] [So, the sand in this part of the desert had been moved away by Old Li using his powerful magic!]n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om [As for why they were staying here and not leaving, it turned out they were worried about potential dangers outside the formation and decided to wait for Old Li, who was still transmitting the coordinates.] [You looked at the crack in the formation and hesitated for a moment. You thought these people were right, so you didn''t leave alone.] [Three dayster, Old Li returned. Except for your father, Jiang Fushan, who was still fighting the Demonic Dragon, everyone else entered the crack in the formation together.] [At this moment, everyone was excited, thinking that they were heading towards a bright future. Some even began to dream about the wonders of the outside world.] [But after stepping out of the crack in the formation, the environment they saw was far from beautiful!] [Aftering out, what greeted their eyes was darkness.] [The ground was covered with eerie skeletons, some human and some ordinary demonic beasts, but most were massive dragon corpses!] [You were puzzled by this scene.] [Had you entered the Dragon Tomb?] [In a previous simtion, you had left the Southern Regions through the Valley of mes and arrived in the Great Wilderness.] [You originally thought that leaving from here might also lead to the Great Wilderness.] [But judging by the current situation, this definitely wasn''t the case.] [Although the Great Wilderness was deste,pared to the atmosphere here, it was nothing.] [Before you could think further, Old Li warned everyone that danger was approaching!] [Everyone immediately became alert and vignt.] [Half an hour passed, but the danger Old Li mentioned never appeared.] [At first, everyone thought Old Li might have sensed wrong.] [But soon, many cultivators from Spine Mountain suddenly started attacking those around them.] [The sudden attacks caught everyone off guard, resulting in many cultivators'' deaths.] [You were also attacked.] [However, the people around you were only at the Foundation Establishment or Core Formation stages. Even if they attacked suddenly, they couldn''t break your protective Nascent Soul barrier.] [You weren''t harmed!] [At this moment, Old Li furrowed his brows and shed his sword towards the distance.] [A Dragon Soul filled with resentment appeared before everyone.] [Seeing this Dragon Soul, Old Li warned everyone to leave immediately, saying that the resentment here was too strong and had already affected their minds!] [After speaking, Old Li engaged in battle with the Dragon Soul.] [You used your Eye of Insight to examine the Dragon Soul and then ran away!] [You couldn''t afford to provoke it; this Dragon Soul had the strength of the Eighth Layer of Tribtion, even stronger than Old Li.] [Old Li might not be its match, so it was better to escape first!] [However, you underestimated the danger of this ce.] [You hadn''t gone far when you saw another Dragon Soul filled with resentment in the distance.] [This Dragon Soul was much weaker than the one fighting Old Li, only at the Spirit Transformation stage.] [But you knew you still weren''t its match, so you changed direction before getting close.] [In the blink of an eye, a day had passed.] [By this time, you were surrounded by a group of Dragon Souls filled with resentment.] [Seeing that you were surrounded, you had no choice but to fight.] [You died at the age of 63!] [This simtion has ended.] [You can choose two rewards from this simtion: Child of Fortune (Talent), Cultivation Level (Nascent Soul Sixth Layer), True Meaning of the Killing Dao (Minor Achievement), War God Art (Martial Dao Ancient Texts).] [Child of Fortune (Talent)]: 1 million energy value. [Cultivation Level (Nascent Soul Sixth Layer)]: 6 million energy value. [True Meaning of the Killing Dao (Minor Achievement)]: 500 million energy value. [War God Art (Martial Dao Ancient Texts)]: 1 billion energy value. Jiang Yifeng looked at the end of the simtion and fell into deep thought. This time, although he left the Desert of Death, it wasn''t safe! Why did he end up in a ce filled with resentful Dragon Souls after leaving? Where exactly was that ce? Was it really in the Nine Mystic Realm? Jiang Yifeng suddenly felt uncertain. Previously, Bai Ruoxue had said that passing through the ces guarded by four fierce beasts would allow one to leave the Southern Regions and reach other areas of the Nine Mystic Realm. Was that really correct? Jiang Yifeng hadn''t thought about it carefully before, but now it seemed wrong! For example, the Endless Sea. From what he learned from the Mystic Turtle, it was impossible to get out of there. This time, after leaving the Desert of Death, he encountered a ce filled with resentful Dragon Souls, which didn''t seem like it was in the Nine Mystic Realm. In this light, the information he got from Bai Ruoxue might not be urate either. But thinking about it, it made sense. Bai Ruoxue was just a cultivator at the Eighth Layer of Tribtion. The sealing formation and the Southern Regions were all set up by mighty beings from the heavens. How could she know everything? Chapter 66: Supplement Energy Value Perhaps most of the information Bai Ruoxue had gathered was hearsay or obtained through reading some ancient texts. However, can the contents recorded in these ancient texts be entirely reliable? If powerful beings in the heavens were to manipte things, would it be difficult for them to alter the records in some ordinary cultivators'' texts? It should be quite easy! Jiang Yifeng shook his head. It seems that many things still need to be explored step by step in simtions; what you hear isn''t necessarily true! Without further thought, Jiang Yifeng turned his attention to the simtion rewards! Not dwelling on it any longer, Jiang Yifeng focused on the simtion rewards before him! The cultivation level of the Immortal Dao (Nascent Soul, Sixth Layer) was immediately ruled out.This simtion wasted a lot of time without focusing on cultivation. Otherwise, Jiang Yifeng felt he could have had a chance to break through to a higher level! As for the other three rewards, they were all quite good. The talent "Child of Fortune"¡ªjust from the name, you could tell how strong it was. In this simtion, not only did he not spend his own spirit stones, but the more he cultivated, the more he gained. He even encountered a spirit liquid pool.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om Most astonishingly, he almost seized his father Jiang Fushan''s inheritance. If it weren''t for his simted self refusing, that inheritance would have been his. Then there was the True Meaning of the Killing Dao (Minor Achievement). Don''t underestimate it just because it''s a minor achievement; it took Wu Youdao, a master reincarnated as the White Tiger, over ten years to help him achieve it. Without Wu Youdao''s assistance, Jiang Yifeng felt it would have taken decades, if not a hundred years, to aplish. Lastly, there was the martial arts text "War God Art," which is essentially the White Tiger''s inheritance. It not only contains martial cultivation techniques but also battle skills. This was something Jiang Yifeng urgently needed. In reality, this could be obtained. But Jiang Yifeng thought, who knows when Wu Youdao would awaken his memories of being the White Tiger reincarnate? After all, it seemed that Wu Youdao only had the War God Art after his awakening. And even if he did awaken, Wu Youdao was no longer in Green Hills City. He hadn''t appeared since thest bandit extermination mission. Ultimately, Jiang Yifeng decided to go for the War God Art first! This was a guarantee for future martial advancement. Although there would be opportunities to obtain it in future simtions, he felt it was better to get it now. After all, the actions of characters in previous simtions weren''t always consistent. Jiang Yifeng wasn''t sure if he might identally do something that would cause a negative butterfly effect, changing Wu Youdao''s mind. So he silently recited. "I choose Child of Fortune (Talent) and War God Art." Jiang Yifeng had hesitated over this choice. After all, Child of Fortune seemed to only help him obtain resources! But with the ability to simte, it seemed he wasn''tcking resources as much. What he needed more now was strength! However, as a transmigrator, seeing the words "Child of Fortune," he couldn''t resist! [Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining the talent "Child of Fortune," deducting 1 million energy points, remaining energy points: 1.6 billion...] [Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining the War God Art (Martial Arts Text), deducting 1 billion energy points, remaining energy points: 600 million...] This time, the rewards did not include cultivation levels. Jiang Yifeng didn''t feel much about it. He just had an additional War God Art in his storage ring. Everything was done! Jiang Yifeng opened his personal data to check. [Host: Jiang Yifeng.] [Talents: Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root, Eye of Insight, Random Enlightenment, Formation Dao Genius, Yimu Divine Body, Child of Fortune.] [Divine Dao Cultivation: Elemental Infant Realm, First Layer (Immortal Dao), True Core Realm, First Layer (Martial Dao)] [Cultivation Methods: Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao)] [Techniques: Wind Chasing Art (Major Achievement).] [Possessions: Spirit Stones (pieces), War God Art (Martial Arts Text), Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method), Wind Chasing Art (Body Techniques Manual), Breath Concealing Talisman, Formation Jade Disk.] Looking at his data, Jiang Yifeng felt that besides his cultivation level, he should also enhance hisbat strength. Previously, it was difficult to findbat techniques. Now that he had the War God Art, which included matchingbat methods, he needed to start cultivating immediately. "Then in the next simtion, if there are no special talents, I''ll focus on trainingbat skills!" Jiang Yifeng murmured to himself, nning for the next simtion! However, Jiang Yifeng realized he only had over 600 million energy points left. He needed to stock up quickly. Otherwise, if something good appeared in the next simtion, he might not be able to afford it. With that thought, he quickly summoned the butler, Jiang Dafu. He instructed him to purchase arge amount of gold, silver, and jewels. Besides gold and silver, Jiang Yifeng also asked the butler to buy some precious minerals! This time, Jiang Dafu didn''t refuse. After a few months, the Jiang n Firm had fully recovered. He didn''t mind Jiang Yifeng spending this bit of money. As for why Jiang Yifeng wanted the butler to buy minerals. It was because he thought that a few months ago, he had already bought arge amount of gold and silver, and there might not be much left in the market. Since that was the case, some valuable minerals would also do. After all, the simtor wasn''t picky. If he wanted, he could even convert soil into energy points. But the energy value was too low. Even a few cubic meters of sand would only yield a tiny bit of energy. Jiang Yifeng feared that even if he emptied Green Hills City, it wouldn''t amount to much energy. Of course, this was because he was too cautious. If he were willing to take risks, he could just leave Green Hills City and devour a few mountains in the wilderness to get arge amount of energy. But the consequence of doing that would definitely be getting discovered by the Immortal Arrival Sect''s Immortal ves. From the simtions, it was clear that the Immortal Arrival Sect had spies in many ces. Ifrge areas of forest disappeared, it wouldn''t go unnoticed. After giving his instructions, Jiang Yifeng leisurely walked towards the Spring Blossom Pavilion. Listening to music in a pleasure house was a worldly pleasure that he couldn''t miss daily. Just as he stepped out of the Jiang Family Mansion, a few spirit stones fell at his feet. Jiang Yifeng frowned and sighed inwardly, "Careless!" He had only thought of the benefits of being a Child of Fortune. Hepletely forgot that in reality, he needed to be cautious! These resources that came to him weren''t so easy to take. From previous simtions, Jiang Yifeng knew that these spirit stones didn''t appear out of thin air! They must have been dropped by some Immortal ve. If he picked them up, the other party would appear, and then he''d lose his life and storage ring! Thisplete process of delivering resources had happened many times in the simtions. Hmm! So should he pick them up or not? In the end, Jiang Yifeng walked past the spirit stones as if he hadn''t seen them. Just a few spirit stones; picking them up might expose his identity as a cultivator, not worth it! Seven days passed in the blink of an eye. During these days, Jiang Yifeng clearly felt what it meant to be a Child of Fortune. Every time he went out, he encountered spirit stones falling from the sky. He really didn''t know what those Immortal ves were thinking; wouldn''t it be better to keep the spirit stones in their storage rings? Even if he didn''t go out, he could always find the silver notes he had lost in his room. Besides the troubles brought by being a Child of Fortune, there was also good news. Jiang Yifeng didn''t know if it was the talent of Child of Fortune at work. In just one week, the butler Jiang Dafu managed to find tens of thousands of tons of minerals. The key was that these minerals weren''t expensive, but their energy value was quite high. Jiang Yifeng had the minerals transported to an uninhabited ce and converted them, gaining a total of 6 billion energy points. Tick-tock, time passed by the second. Finally, the simtion count refreshed. Jiang Yifeng had long been waiting in his room. As soon as the count refreshed, he silently recited. "Start simtion!" Chapter 67: I was despised by the self in the Simulation! [Simtion attempt consumed: 1, Remaining attempts: 0] [Drawing a Blue Talent costs 1 million Energy Value, drawing a Purple Talent costs 10 million Energy Value. Please select!] "Draw a Purple Talent." [Ding, 10 million Energy Value deducted. Drawing Purple Talent. Remaining Energy Value: 6.6 billion...] [Congrattions, Host has obtained the talent: Heaven Rewards Diligence.] [Heaven Rewards Diligence] Every effort you make will yield results! Jiang Yifeng nced at the talent he had just acquired. The description seemed simple. But he was familiar with this talent; he had seen it often in web novels in his previous life.This was a top-tier talent. As long as he put in the effort, he would see results, although the extent of those results was unknown. With this talent, he would never face any bottlenecks in his future cultivation! A great talent, he had to have it! Without further thought, Jiang Yifeng continued to look at the simtor. [20th Simtion begins!]n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [You know you have entered the simtion.] [On the first day, you left the Jiang Family Mansion under the cover of night.] [This time, you did not n to head to the Evergreen Mountain Range or the Endless Sea.] [You traveled westward, heading towards the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [In the first year, aside from picking up a few Spirit Stones and killing a few Immortal ves who dropped Spirit Stones, nothing significant happened.] [In the second year, you arrived at Sunset Mountain and discovered a pool of spirit liquid.] [You collected all the spirit liquid but did not use it.] [In the third year, you arrived at the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng in reality silently muttered. "Begin deep simtion for seven years!" [Ding, deep simtion for seven years initiated. Consuming 613.2 million Energy Value. Remaining Energy Value: 6 billion...] As the electronic voice of the simtor faded. Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness entered the simtion. He looked at the eerie killing intent in the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords, feeling a chill down his spine. "Come on, Jiang Yifeng, you can do this!" Jiang Yifeng muttered to himself, giving himself a pep talk before walking into the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords. Yes, this time, he intended to use deep simtion to acquire killing intent. ording to Jiang Yifeng''s understanding, this killing intent was a mental and conscious level phenomenon. It could be obtained through deep simtion. Although it was a bit of a waste of Energy Value. Jiang Yifeng felt it was necessary. Each simtion could only exchange two rewards. Without using deep simtion, he felt that relying solely on post-simtion exchanges would be too slow. Soon, Jiang Yifeng stepped into the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords. The thick killing intent instantly engulfed him. "Kill!" In less than a minute, Jiang Yifeng''s eyes turned blood-red, and he kept shouting. Clearly, he had lost his self-awareness. Days passed, and Jiang Yifeng showed no signs of improvement. He wandered aimlessly in the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords every day, constantly shouting, "Kill, kill, kill!" ... In the blink of an eye, seven years passed. [Ding, deep simtion ended!] Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness returned to the Jiang Family Mansion in Green Hills City. At this moment, Jiang Yifeng shook his head vigorously, recalling the events in the deep simtion. He was still a bit scared. He had been too impulsive! He hadn''t expected the killing intent to be so terrifying; he lost his self-awareness in just a moment. Fortunately, after the deep simtion ended, he wasn''t affected upon returning. However, soon, Jiang Yifeng grinned. He had discovered a bug in the simtor! Now, he could crudely use a bit of killing intent, reaching the entry-level of killing intent. Although he went mad in the deep simtion, it didn''t matter. He still gained the benefits. And his real self wasn''t affected after exiting the simtion. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng gave himself a mental thumbs-up for his previous decision. Impulsive? It was all part of the n. Yes, exactly! After a bit of self-constion, Jiang Yifeng looked at the simtion panel. [In the tenth year, you kept shouting and killing in the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords. Clearly, you had gone mad!] [In the thirteenth year, you were still wandering in the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords, showing no signs of improvement.] [In the sixteenth year, you identally entered the depths of the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [In the eighteenth year, you wandered aimlessly in the depths of the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [You saw a giant White Tiger''s corpse, exuding intense killing intent, but you were mad and didn''t care!] [In the twenty-third year, you saw a crack in a formation. You had no thoughts but still walked in.] [After walking through the crack in the formation, you found yourself in a vast mountain range. You wandered aimlessly, only wanting to kill!] [In the twenty-fourth year, a figure suddenly appeared in front of you.] [Your eyes were blood-red, and you attacked him excitedly!] [The person looked at you, sighed, and tapped your forehead with two fingers, instantly calming you down.] [Three dayster, you slowly woke up, and your self-awareness gradually returned!] [You saw Wu Youdao standing in front of you.] [Wu Youdao scolded you, saying that being reckless and being brave are two different things.] [You knew Wu Youdao was referring to your reckless entry into the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords, leaving you speechless.] [You felt some disdain for your real self outside the simtion.] [This deep simtion n was something you had nned before entering the simtion!] [So you knew it must have been your real self outside the simtion that couldn''t handle it.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng''s face darkened. He had been disdained by his simted self! Forget it, no point in arguing with a tool! So he continued to look at the simtor. [After seeing you were fine, Wu Youdao handed you the War God Art and prepared to leave.] [Seeing this, you quickly asked him how to reach other regions from here.] [Although you didn''t have memories from the deep simtion, you still remembered the madness after it ended!] [You knew you had identally left the Southern Regions.] [Since that was the case, you naturally wanted to explore other regions.] [Wu Youdao didn''t hide anything from you. He told you that heading west would lead you to other regions.] [But he also warned you that the journey was dangerous, with many ces filled with killing intent. He advised you to improve your strength or killing intent before going.] [After saying this, Wu Youdao left.] [In the end, you heeded Wu Youdao''s advice and didn''t recklessly head to other regions.] [Since you needed to improve, you decided to do so.] [However, the direction you chose to improve wasn''t killing intent.] [You started cultivating thebat techniques in the War God Art.] [The War God Art contained threebat techniques: Sword of Killing Intent, War God Body, and Silent Destruction Fist.] [Sword of Killing Intent required a strongprehension of killing intent to cultivate. With your current level of killing intent, you couldn''t cultivate it, so it was immediately passed over!] [War God Body was a technique that required continuousbat to cultivate, but since you were alone, you couldn''t meet this condition!] [The only technique left for you to cultivate was Silent Destruction Fist.] [Silent Destruction Fist emphasized that with one punch, everything would be annihted!] Chapter 68: Sea of killing intent [Year 25, you spent a year practicing the Silent Destruction Fist, but unfortunately, you still haven''t grasped it.] [You understand that this is inevitable; the level of this fist technique is too high, making it inherently difficult to master.] [However, you haven''t given up. With the talent "Heaven Rewards Diligence," you believe that as long as you practice enough, you will eventually get the hang of it!] [Year 32, after spending more than seven years, you finally reached the entry-level of the Silent Destruction Fist.] [You used the Silent Destruction Fist, and with a punch, the violent primordial energy surged out through your fist.] ["Boom," the force of the punchnded, and the surrounding flowers, nts, and trees all turned to ashes. A huge crater appeared on the ground.] [You looked at the crater you created and then at your fist, momentarily stunned.] [Previously, when you used spiritual energy to smash the ground, you could create craters, but the depth was iparable to what the Silent Destruction Fist achieved, at least dozens of times deeper.] [This is too exaggerated. Just the entry-level of the Silent Destruction Fist has caused such a drastic change in your strength!][You feel that with your current strength, you could easily annihte a group of opponents with a single punchpared to your previous self without battle techniques!] [However, you also understand that battle techniques vary in strength, and the Silent Destruction Fist is undoubtedly one of the strongest, hence the significant difference.] [Other weaker battle techniques can also enhancebat power, but the improvement is much smaller!] [Since the Silent Destruction Fist is so powerful, you quickly calm your mind and continue practicing.] [In the blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed.] [Year 47, while practicing the Silent Destruction Fist, you triggered the talent Random Enlightenment, gaining seven times the training speed and more active thoughts!] [This enlightenmentsted for a year, and your practice of the Silent Destruction Fist progressed significantly, though it did not break through to the next level.] [Even so, the power of your Silent Destruction Fist increased several times.] [At this moment, you feel eager to find someone to spar with.] [Obviously, you''re overthinking it; there''s not a soul in sight, and you don''t have the opportunity!] [Year 50, while you were practicing, a sudden gust of wind carrying intense killing intent attacked!] [You frowned slightly, instinctively thinking: Is someone attacking you?] [You quickly used the Wind Chasing Art to dodge in time.] [The wind carrying killing intent brushed past you, affecting you slightly but not injuring you!] [You endured the influence of the killing intent and remained vignt.] [Time passed minute by minute, and after half a day with no further movement, you gradually rxed.] [It seems that the wind carrying killing intent was just passing by and not specifically targeting you.] [Because of this, you became somewhat wary of this ce!] [If that wind had directly hit you, you weren''t sure whether you''d go mad from the killing intent or be torn apart by the wind.] [After all, you also possess entry-level killing intent and can sense that the killing intent in the wind is different from that in the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords; it''s more violent.] [Without overthinking, you spent the next month eliminating the influence of the killing intent.] [Once the influencepletely disappeared, you resumed your monotonous daily practice of the Silent Destruction Fist!] [In the blink of an eye, twenty years passed.] [Year 70, after all these years, you can feel that the Silent Destruction Fist is still progressing.] [At this moment, you feel that the Silent Destruction Fist is not far from breaking through to the minor aplishment stage.] [During these years, you encountered several more gusts of wind, each carrying intense killing intent.] [However, ever since the encounter twenty years ago, you have been on guard and dodged in time each time.] [Year 73, you triggered the talent Random Enlightenment again, gaining ten times the training speed and more active thoughts.] [This enlightenmentsted for three years, and you sessfully practiced the Silent Destruction Fist to the minor aplishment stage!] [Year 75, you found that the frequency of the winds carrying killing intent was increasing.] [It had reached the point where you could no longer practice in peace.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [So, you decided to leave your current location and find another ce!] [You remembered that Wu Youdao mentioned that heading west leads to other major regions, so you decided to head west.] [If you encounter a ce with concentrated killing intent blocking your way, you think it would be fine to stop and find a safe ce to practice.] [Year 76, you stopped in your tracks as you looked at the scene before you.] [In front of you was a sea of killing intent.] [The dense killing intent far exceeded that in the depths of the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [Moreover, the killing intent here seemed to carry a different aura, giving the impression that it could erupt at any moment!] [At this moment, you also understood where the winds carrying killing intent came from¡ªit was here.] [You saw that killing intent asionally formed into hurricanes and drifted in all directions.] [Not only that, but you also saw killing intent from other ces constantly converging here!] [You couldn''t understand why.] [You only knew that this ce was not somewhere you could approach now, and you needed to leave quickly!] [Just then, you heard the roar of a tiger.] [You saw the sea of killing intent moving and eventually condensing into the form of a White Tiger!] [The sea of killing intent, now in the form of a White Tiger, looked at you and then let out a roar.] [The surging killing intent transformed into sound waves, attacking you.] [The speed of the sound waves was extremely fast, and knowing you couldn''t escape, you immediately used the minor aplishment stage of the Silent Destruction Fist to block.] [After you used the Silent Destruction Fist, the sea of killing intent in the form of a White Tiger paused momentarily, seemingly confused.] [But soon, it roared in anger again.] [Your Silent Destruction Fist struggled to block one wave of killing intent, let alone two.] [You died at the age of 96!] [This simtion has ended.] [You can choose two rewards from this simtion: Heaven Rewards Diligence (Talent), Silent Destruction Fist (Minor Aplishment), Pseudo Spirit Liquid (A Pool), Killing Intent (Entry-Level).] [Heaven Rewards Diligence (Talent)]: 1 million Energy Value. [Silent Destruction Fist (Minor Aplishment)]: 100 million Energy Value. [Pseudo Spirit Liquid (A Pool)]: 10 billion Energy Value. (Impure spirit liquid, several times less effective than pure spirit liquid.) [True Meaning of the Killing Dao (Entry-Level)]: 100 million Energy Value. Jiang Yifeng stared at the simtor, lost in thought. Chapter 69: It turns out I was being too clever for my own good! This time, during the simtion, he identally left the Southern Regions. After leaving the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords, he indeed cultivated quietly for a period. But that period was only fifty years. After that, there were constant invasions of violent winds, making it impossible for him to cultivate. It seemed that even if he replicated this simtion, he wouldn''t gain much simtion time. He still needed to find a way to enter other major regions. Jiang Yifeng thought that perhaps only in other major regions of the Nine Mystic Realm could he develop safely. However, after these two simtions, a bold guess emerged in Jiang Yifeng''s mind. Behind the formation crack in the Desert of Death, there were dragon corpses everywhere, filled with the resentful Dragon Souls.Could that be the cemetery of the Dragon n? And behind the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords was an ocean filled with killing intent, even forming into the shape of a White Tiger. Jiang Yifeng spected that this might also be the fallennd of the White Tiger n. After all, he learned from the simtion that the White Tiger n had beenpletely annihted, leaving only Wu Youdao as the reincarnated one. If he dared to think even bolder, could the area behind the Endless Sea be the cemetery of the Mystic Turtle n? And the Great Wilderness behind the Valley of mes, the cemetery of the Phoenix n? Was there a powerful being in the Immortal Realm who exterminated the four Divine Beasts, leaving only one and throwing it into the Southern Regions? Then using their n cemeteries to ce outside the formation cracks to control and utilize them to guard the formation cracks? Jiang Yifeng kept pondering various possibilities. Soon, he shook his head, something didn''t seem right. He had been to the Great Wilderness in the simtion and didn''t see the corpses of the Phoenix n. Besides being deste, there were people living there, and there were no signs of a Phoenix cemetery. Moreover, Bai Ruoxue had entered from outside the Endless Sea. If it was the cemetery of the Mystic Turtle n, she should have seen it clearly. Apart from these, Jiang Yifeng also thought that if a powerful being in the sky wanted to control these Divine Beasts, they wouldn''t need to use such coercive methods. "Still too few clues!" Jiang Yifeng muttered to himself, not continuing to think about these issues. He turned his attention to the rewards of this simtion. There was no need to hesitate about the rewards this time. The True Meaning of the Killing Dao (Beginner) had already been obtained through deep simtion. And that Pseudo Spirit Liquid (a pond), although a good cultivation resource for now, was too expensive. At this moment, Jiang Yifeng also realized that any physical reward seemed to require a lot of energy value. For example, a single Spirit Stone cost 10,000 energy value. Initially, when his cultivation was low, the consumption was high, and he didn''t think it was expensive, so he exchanged quite a few. Looking back now, it was a huge loss. Tens of thousands of Spirit Stones cost billions of energy value, but the actual improvement was only a few minor realms. Jiang Yifeng also tried to exchange Spirit Stones back into energy. But it wasn''t worth it. Previously, he exchanged them from the simtion at 10,000 energy value per stone. But now, exchanging them back into energy, they shrank tenfold, with one Spirit Stone only worth 1,000 energy value. In the end, Jiang Yifeng gave up on the spirit liquid option. It wasn''t worth it, and mainly, times had changed, and he didn''t expect the simtor to be so ck-hearted. He now had over 6 billion energy value, but couldn''t afford a pond of spirit liquid. So, in the end, Jiang Yifeng silently chose. "I choose Heaven Rewards Diligence (Talent) and Silent Destruction Fist (Minor Achievement)." [Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining the talent "Heaven Rewards Diligence", deducting 1 million energy value, remaining energy value 6 billion.] [Ding, extracting Silent Destruction Fist (Minor Achievement) sessfully, deducting 100 million energy value, remaining energy value 5.9 billion...]N?v(el)B\\jnn As the electronic voice of the simtor fell. Jiang Yifeng felt as if he was in a mountain forest, continuously practicing the Silent Destruction Fist. Punch after punch, until he reached the minor achievement stage. A few secondster, Jiang Yifeng shook his head. What just happened? Why did this extraction ofbat skills create such a scene? Previously, when he extracted the Wind Chasing Art''s body techniques, he didn''t feel much. At this moment, the simtor''s voice sounded. [Ding, due to the host practicing strongbat skills, this simtor''s level is insufficient to directly instill them, so it can only use the experience method to enhance.] [Hint: If the host works hard to upgrade the simtor, this problem will not ur.] "Uh?" Again, the simtor heard his thoughts. Jiang Yifeng was speechless. He didn''t know if this simtor was intelligent or not. If it wasn''t intelligent, it could still provide answers at critical moments. If it was intelligent, calling it would never get a response. However, Jiang Yifeng now understood why this enhancement was different from before. No harm done, an enhancement is still an enhancement! Speaking of upgrading the simtor, Jiang Yifeng felt a bit eager. After all, the current simtions were almost at a dead end. No matter what choices he made, it was difficult to leave this sealed Southern Regions. Unless his strength reached an extremely powerful realm. And this realm, Jiang Yifeng thought, might be above the Immortal Realm. But this wasn''t something that could be achieved in a short time. Since his strength was improving slowly, would upgrading the simtor bring new functions or talents to help him? Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng, with a try-it-out mentality, asked the simtor. "Simtor, what realm is needed for the next upgrade?" [Ding, hint: Upgrading this simtor to version 4.0 requires consuming 10 billion energy value and the host reaching the Nascent Soul stage or True Core Realm!] "Ugh," Jiang Yifeng almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. So, he was being foolish again? He initially thought upgrading the simtor required a higher realm. After all, when he reached the Core Formation stage, he unlocked the upgrade conditions for version 3.0 of the simtor. He thought it wouldn''t be the next realm to meet the upgrade conditions. It turned out he was overthinking. Since that was the case, Jiang Yifeng hurriedly ran out of the room. Jiang Yifeng directly found the butler, Jiang Dafu, and told him to gather 10,000 tons of the same ore asst time within a week, no matter what. Last time, 10,000 tons of ore earned him 6 billion energy value. As long as he got another 10,000 tons, plus his current 5.9 billion energy value, it would be enough to upgrade the simtor. Seeing his young master so urgent, Jiang Dafu didn''t dare refuse and hurriedly went to prepare. After confirming there were no issues, Jiang Yifeng breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that as long as Jiang Dafu agreed, it would be done. After all, Jiang Dafu was a reliable butler and never made promises he couldn''t keep. With everything settled, Jiang Yifeng leisurely walked towards the Spring Blossom Pavilion to listen to music. Time flew by in the blink of an eye. A week passed quickly. Not long ago, Jiang Dafu, right at thest moment, gathered 10,000 tons of ore for Jiang Yifeng. Those ores were secretly transported by Jiang Dafu to the remote old residence of the Jiang Family. After dismissing everyone, Jiang Yifeng sessfully exchanged all the ores for 6 billion energy value. His total energy value now reached over 11.9 billion! Now, the conditions for upgrading the simtor were met. Chapter 70: Fight beyond the level, I am a genius Jiang Yifeng returned to his room and immediately muttered to himself. "Upgrade the simtor!" [Ding, the simtor has been upgraded to version 4.0, consuming 10 billion Energy Value, with 1.9 billion Energy Value remaining...] [Simtor 4.0: Blue Talent extraction removed, chance-based Orange Talent acquisition enabled.] [Note: Extracting Orange Talent does not guarantee an Orange Talent; there is a 50% chance of obtaining a Purple Talent.] [Settings modification: The reward for cultivation levels after simtion will be collectively termed as Divine Dao, upying only one reward slot; this will include Martial Dao Cultivation and Immortal Dao Cultivation.] [New feature: Talent Storage Pool enabled. The host can ce unused talents from reality into the storage pool and retrieve one during simtion!] "WTF, WTF, WTF!" Jiang Yifeng eximed repeatedly in astonishment!The upgrade effects of this simtor are explosive! Enabling Orange Talent extraction¡ªJiang Yifeng wasn''t sure how strong Orange Talents were, but Purple Talents were already formidable, so Orange Talents must be even stronger! The simtor also indicated that Orange Talents are chance-based, further proving their power. Otherwise, why would there be such a restriction? As for the settings modification, it came at the perfect time. Jiang Yifeng always felt that the reward options after each simtion were too few. Especially since he was cultivating the Divine Dao; previously, he could only choose two options each time, making it difficult to improve without simultaneous extraction. If he got a good talent, his strength would be stuck. If he chose strength, the talent would be wasted. Moreover, now that he was also cultivatingbat techniques, the reward options were even more insufficient. This upgrade directly solved his problem. From now on, whether it¡¯s Martial Dao or Immortal Dao, it can be bundled into one reward for extraction. He no longer had to worry about not being able to advance due to insufficient reward options. As for thest feature, the Talent Storage Pool, Jiang Yifeng could only say it came toote! If this feature hade earlier, he would have chosen the Cmity Physique talent.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om Back then, even the Demonic Phoenix at the peak of Tribtion Crossing in the Valley of mes was tormented to the point of losing its realm because of this talent. If he had the Cmity Physique now, Jiang Yifeng could carry it before each simtion and then start the simtion. Wouldn''t he be able to leave the sealednd in the Southern Regions unscathed every time? Although he would be killed by the Wild Sect in the Great Wilderness, that was simted for over a hundred years. "Sigh!" In the end, Jiang Yifeng could only let out a sigh. There was no helping it; this feature came a bitte. At this moment, the simtion had also refreshed, and Jiang Yifeng stopped thinking further. He directly muttered. "Start simtion!" [Consuming 1 simtion attempt, 0 attempts remaining] [Extracting Purple Talent consumes 1 million Energy Value, chance-based Orange Talent extraction consumes 10 million Energy Value, please choose!] "Choose chance-based Orange Talent extraction." [Ding, deducting 10 million Energy Value, talent being randomly extracted, 1.9 billion Energy Value remaining...] [Congrattions to the host for obtaining the Orange Talent: Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root.] [Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root]: A rare five-attribute spiritual root, possessing this talent makes you a true prodigy. [Ding: Detected that the host already has Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root, recing the spiritual root sessfully, the original spiritual root talent has been automatically ced into the talent pool.] [Simtion is about to begin, does the host choose to equip a talent from the talent pool; note: only one spiritual root talent can be equipped.] "Do not equip!" Jiang Yifeng didn''t hesitate and directly refused. What talent was there in the talent pool now? Just the Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root that had just been reced by the Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root. Equipping it now and recing the better Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root would be foolish! [21st simtion begins!] [You realize you have entered the simtion.] [This time, with the Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root, you n to enhance your Immortal Dao cultivation.] [So soon, you have a n in mind!] [On the first day, you leave Green Hills City under the cover of night!] [On the second day, you arrive at the ruins of Heavenly Profound Temple in the Evergreen Mountain Range.] [You clean up the ruins, bury all the bones, and then begin your cultivation there.] [Since you decided to cultivate the Immortal Dao,ing to the ruins of Heavenly Profound Temple to take advantage of Bai Ruoxue is a must.] [Although you have plenty of Spirit Stones and are a Child of Fortune, who doesn''t want more resources!] [In the first year, besides finding some Spirit Stones and killing a few Immortal ves that dropped Spirit Stones, nothing happened.] [In the second year, you consumed arge number of Spirit Stones and sessfully broke through to the second level of the Elemental Infant Realm.] [This made you deeply feel the difference between the Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root and the Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root.] [Previously, each simtion took five to six years to advance a realm; now, it only took two years to break through.] [This made you sigh in admiration; Orange Talents are indeed powerful!] [In the third year, Bai Ruoxue descended.] [She examined you and asked if you were willing to take her as your master!] [You nodded repeatedly in agreement.] [After all, you were waiting here for this benefactor!] [Three dayster, Bai Ruoxue asked if you were willing to leave with her.] [You knew you couldn''t leave the Endless Sea, and this time you didn''t n to closely observe the sealing formation to cultivate Formation Dao.] [So, you shook your head and refused, finding an excuse, saying you didn''t want to leave this ce!] [Bai Ruoxue thought for a moment and didn''t force you.] [In the end, she left a storage ring full of resources for you and left alone!] [After Bai Ruoxue left, you didn''t stay there long either.] [You chose to head westward.] [You remembered that there was a pool of spirit liquid waiting for you at Sunset Mountain.] [In the fourth year, you encountered a bit of trouble.] [You identally picked up a Spirit Stone from an Immortal ve, who had the strength of the third level of the Elemental Infant Realm.] [You were only at the second level of the Elemental Infant Realm, facing an Immortal ve at the third level, it was a tough battle, making you a bit nervous.] [But despite the nerves, you didn''t run away.] [You knew you were cultivating the Ancient Divine Dao and had now mastered the Silent Destruction Fist at a small sess stage and the entry-level True Meaning of the Killing Dao.] [You thought you should be a genius too, fighting across levels shouldn''t be a problem!] [So you unleashed all your strength, integrating it into the Silent Destruction Fist, and punched towards the Immortal ve.] [In an instant, the void trembled, and under your Silent Destruction Fist, the third-level Elemental Infant Realm Immortal ve didn''t even leave ashes.] [You were stunned for a moment, muttering to yourself, "Am I really this strong?"] [This battle made you roughly understand your own strength.] [You felt that you had umted enough and finally stood up after being weak in previous simtions!] [You couldn''t help but shout: I am a genius!] Chapter 71: Its finally time for me to show off "Boom!" At that moment, a thunderp resounded. You were startled, thinking it was Heavenly Thunder descending. It wasn''t until you saw the torrential rain following the thunder that you breathed a sigh of relief. "So it was just rain!" However, the thunder also extinguished the bit of bravado that had just risen in your heart. You kept reminding yourself: The enemy is too powerful. Stay low, stay low, you must be cautious. In the fifth year, you arrived at Sunset Mountain. After searching for a while, you finally found the Spirit Liquid Pool! You immediately began your cultivation there.In the sixth year, thanks to the effects of the Pseudo Spirit Liquid, you broke through from the second level of Nascent Soul to the third level within a year. Three years passed in the blink of an eye. In the ninth year, your cultivation level had reached the sixth level of Nascent Soul. By this time, the Pseudo Spirit Liquid in the Spirit Liquid Pool had beenpletely consumed by you. Looking at the dried-up pool, you felt a bit unsatisfied. The feeling of rapid improvement was truly exhrating. "Sigh," you sighed and headed towards Green Hills City. This time, you didn''t n to go to the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om Although in thest simtion, you identally stumbled out of the Southern Regions after going mad, you weren''t sure if you could replicate that situation; it was too random. Of course, you could gamble on the talent of being a Child of Fortune. But you felt that your Child of Fortune talent seemed fake, only responsible for resources, with no significant change in luck in other aspects. In the eleventh year, you returned to Green Hills City. This time, you didn''t hide outside but returned to the Jiang Family. Your father, Jiang Fushan, was overjoyed to see you return safely after so many years. To celebrate, all the Jiang n Firm''s businesses in Green Hills City held massive sales. Soon, the news of your return spread throughout Green Hills City! For a time, the Jiang Family was filled with guests, and many of your old friends came to visit you. Among them, your good friend from the pleasure house, Liang Zhilei, even booked the entire Spring Blossom Pavilion for you. Notably, the courtesan of Spring Blossom Pavilion was Qiu Zhixuan. After your return, she also came to visit you alone. During your conversation, you clearly sensed her using Divine Sense to probe you. You understood this; after all, you had disappeared for over a decade and suddenly reappeared. The Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect would naturally be cautious. Unfortunately for her, you had a Breath Concealing Talisman, so no matter how she looked at you, you appeared as a mere mortal. Of course, even without the Breath Concealing Talisman, with your current cultivation level, Qiu Zhixuan, who was only at the Foundation Establishment stage, couldn''t possibly see through you! This was one of the reasons you dared to return openly to the Jiang Family in this simtion. Shortly after your return, the Jiang n Firm received arge business deal requiring your father, Jiang Fushan, to travel to the Liang Kingdom. Upon hearing this, you immediately found your father and told him you wanted to apany him! Your father, Jiang Fushan, did not refuse. After all, you had managed to survive on your own for decades. This time, apanying him on a business trip, though long, wouldn''t worry him too much. In the twelfth year, after concluding the business in the Liang Kingdom, your Jiang n Firm''s convoy was passing through Yuyang Mountain when the ground suddenly shook. You knew this meant an inheritance was about to appear. With a wave of your hand, you knocked out everyone except your father, ensuring they all slept peacefully, then protected them with spiritual energy. When they woke up, they would probably think they just had a good nap! Your father, Jiang Fushan, watched everything you did with some confusion. But you just smiled and roughly exined it to him. However, your father didn''t understand a word about cultivation. Even though he didn''t understand, he still nodded without any me. Actually, even without an exnation, given your father Jiang Fushan''s doting nature, he wouldn''t have med you for anything. Soon, a crack appeared in the ground, and the inheritance emerged. After moving the unconscious people to a safe ce, you leaped down with your father into the inheritance hall. Upon your arrival, the inheritance light orb moved back and forth, sometimes appearing before you, sometimes before your father. It seemed to be making a choice! In the end, you gave your father Jiang Fushan a push towards the light orb. Seeing this, the inheritance smoothly merged into your father Jiang Fushan''s body. You had considered taking the inheritance yourself. But then you thought it would be better to steadily improve; this time, your goal was to break through a major realm. Since you were cultivating the Divine Dao, you needed to advance both Martial Dao and Immortal Dao simultaneously to achieve perfection and break through the major realm. You felt you needed to find Spine Mountain and use the Heavenly Thunder beneath it to cultivate Martial Dao. If you took the inheritance, you weren''t sure if you could find Spine Mountain. So, to be safe, you gave up the inheritance. As long as your father obtained it, he would connect with the cultivators of Spine Mountain. You could then take the opportunity to go to Spine Mountain with him! As for the inheritance, you left it for your future self to explore. After confirming your father had received the inheritance, you woke up the knocked-out members of the Jiang n convoy and sent them on their way. After everything was done, you returned to the inheritance hall, staying by your father''s side to protect him. Three dayster, a shadowy figure named Yang Zuo appeared. He arrogantly shouted, "You are not worthy of receiving the Immortal Dao inheritance!" Looking at his ninth-level Core Formation cultivation andparing it to your sixth-level Nascent Soul cultivation, you grinned. You felt it was finally your moment to show off! You had waited for this day for a long time. You stepped forward, stood before Yang Zuo, and muttered, "Trash," before pping him on the head. Just as you were about to continue showing off, Yang Zuo''s head exploded, sttering you with blood, ruining your luxurious clothes! "Just like that?" You couldn''t believe Yang Zuo was so weak, feeling a bit displeased, you cursed, "Damn, I wasn''t even serious!" After a brief moment of cursing, you realized that showing off wasn''t as satisfying as you thought. Finally, you muttered, "Forget it," feeling that perhaps you were more suited to staying low; showing off wasn''t your forte! Chapter 72: Dominant father In the blink of an eye, several days passed, and your father, Jiang Fushan, finally fully integrated the inheritance. At this moment, he also understood the general situation of the Southern Regions and no longer needed your detailed exnations. In the thirteenth year, you and your father, Jiang Fushan, returned to Green Hills City. Upon returning, you both went into seclusion to cultivate. In the fourteenth year, your cultivation level broke through to the seventhyer of the Nascent Soul stage. This breakthrough was within your expectations. Although it seemed like you only cultivated for a year, you had been cultivating whenever you had time, whether traveling or doing other things. Adding this year of seclusion, this breakthrough was the result of umtion! In the fifteenth year, while you were cultivating, you suddenly felt uneasy. When you opened your eyes to observe the outside world, you saw strange phenomena in the sky.What is happening? Suddenly, you were startled, thinking that when you broke through the Core Formation stage, there were also celestial phenomena. Could it be that someone is breaking through now? You quickly used your Divine Sense to scan Green Hills City. Until you probed your father, Jiang Fushan''s, seclusion room, a look of relief appeared on your face. You realized that it was your father, Jiang Fushan, breaking through to the Core Formation stage! That exined everything. After all, you knew that your father could cultivate to the eighth or even ninthyer of Tribtion Crossing in just over thirty years.N?v(el)B\\jnn Now, breaking through to the Core Formation stage in two years, with some celestial phenomena, seemed quite reasonable. But why had you never seen such phenomena before? Quickly, you figured it out. It seemed normal not to have seen them. In your previous simtions, you were never with your father, Jiang Fushan; you were always developing on your own. Before you could think more, you sensed arge number of Immortal ves flooding into Green Hills City. All the Immortal ves were pointing their swords at the Jiang Family Mansion! You immediately felt a chill down your spine. "Run," was the only word in your mind. Quickly, you arrived at your father, Jiang Fushan''s, seclusion ce, ready to call him to escape together. You thought that if the breakthrough failed, there could be another chance, but if you lost your life, it would be truly gone! When facing a strong enemy, running or not running was always a single-choice question for you. But before you could push the door open, you saw your father break through the roof and emerge. You saw him standing in the void, facing the numerous Immortal ves without fear. You were about to step forward to persuade him when you heard your father shout at the Immortal ves, "Come and fight!" "WTF!" You were instantly stunned. You had just used the Eye of Insight to check. Among these Immortal ves, there were many at the Spirit Transformation and Body Integration stages; there was even Shen Wuyou, the sect master of the Immortal Arrival Sect at the sixth level of Tribtion Crossing. At this moment, your heart was in turmoil, and you couldn''t help but rant, "What''s going on, Dad? You just broke through to the Core Formation stage, do you have to be so domineering!" After your father made his bold deration, the Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect did not immediately attack but instead sealed off the entire Green Hills City in an instant! Seeing this, you called out in despair. These viins were so cautious; arge group of people, including Body Fusion Realm experts, dealing with a Core Formation stage cultivator, and they still surrounded the area? Were they afraid of someone escaping? Their actions left you with no chance to run! Knowing you couldn''t escape, you stopped pretending and stepped forward to stand beside your father, Jiang Fushan. You thought, since you couldn''t run, you might as well fight; at least you would die with dignity. You were about to shout a loud slogan like your father! At that moment, Old Li arrived with the cultivators from Spine Mountain. In an instant, the Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect were beaten to a pulp by Old Li, and you were just a spectator! Soon, the battle ended, and the Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect retreated. You and your father, Jiang Fushan, were taken by Old Li and rushed towards Spine Mountain! On the other side, Shen Wuyou and the Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect were already massacring a city, preparing for a blood sacrifice to contact a celestial being. Half a dayter, the sight of Spine Mountain came into view. Suddenly, deafening thunder rumbled in the sky. Heavenly Thunder? How could it be? In a sh, you remembered something. You recalled that in a previous simtion, the simtor showed that when you broke through to the Core Formation stage, you were also struck by Heavenly Thunder. Even though Old Li helped you block one bolt of Heavenly Thunder, you still didn''t escape in the end. That was also your shortest simtion time. That time, the sect master of the Immortal Arrival Sect, Shen Wuyou, reported to the celestial being, suspecting that a Ten-Grade Golden Core cultivator might appear, so the celestial being intervened. It seemed that your father, Jiang Fushan, was undoubtedly a Ten-Grade Golden Core, otherwise, such a situation wouldn''t ur! Although you had guessed the general situation, you had no solution at the moment. However, you were not anxious but rather curious. After all, in previous simtions, your father always safely cultivated to the eighthyer of Tribtion Crossing. You wanted to know how your father, Jiang Fushan, avoided this deadly Heavenly Thunder. While you were lost in thought, the Heavenly Thunder directly struck towards your father, Jiang Fushan. Old Li was about to help block it, but your father quickly pushed him away, shaking his head! At this moment, your father''s body shed with white light, and his entire demeanor changed, as if he had be a different person. Then you saw him shout towards the sky, "Back off! You are not worthy to touch my heir; let your mastere himself!" As his voice fell, you saw the Heavenly Thunder actually retreat. You were dumbfounded. So powerful? However, you roughly understood that the one speaking just now was not your father but the inheritance. But this inheritance seemed too powerful! You now regretted a bit, thinking that if the inheritance was so powerful, you could have taken it yourself and used it to leave the Southern Regions? Quickly, you shook your head, thinking things couldn''t be that simple. If the inheritance was truly so powerful, why did your father never leave the Southern Regions in previous simtions? There must be some other reason. Before you could think more, after the Heavenly Thunder retreated, your father immediately spat out a mouthful of blood, his aura weakening. You quickly ran over to support him, asking what had just happened! Chapter 73: About to become a spirit Nascent Soul "Your father gave a bitter smile and told you that it was a remnant consciousness of the inheritance master, which has nowpletely dissipated." "He exined that the master of the inheritance was a significant figure in the Immortal Realm during his lifetime. Now, he was merely using the lingering power from his past to intimidate the one controlling the Heavenly Thunder." "Your father also mentioned that the consciousness was already on the verge of dissipating and had no actual strength left. Even without this incident, it wouldn''t havested much longer." "If the Heavenly Thunder had truly struck down just now, there would have been no way to resist it." "After hearing this, you understood everything." "With this, all the events made sense." "Your father was able to avoid the Heavenly Thunder during his breakthrough because he borrowed the lingering power of the inheritance master." "And your father couldn''t truly escape the Southern Regions because the inheritance master had no strength left and his consciousness was fading!" "Your father himself didn''t have time to break through to a higher realm while traversing the Desert of Death.""In the following days, you, your father Jiang Fushan, and the Jiang Family settled down at Spine Mountain." "In the sixteenth year, you disyed astonishing talent in the Formation Dao." "You helped the cultivators of Spine Mountain set up several high-grade Gathering Spirit Arrays." "You received their gratitude and were rewarded with hundreds of thousands of Spirit Stones." "In the seventeenth year, while cultivating the Immortal Dao, you triggered a random enlightenment, increasing your cultivation speed eightfold and making your mind more active." "This enlightenmentsted for ten months, and your cultivation level in the Immortal Dao directly reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage!" "Seeing that your Immortal Dao cultivation had reached its peak, you decided it was time to start cultivating Martial Dao." "However, before that, you found your father Jiang Fushan and gave him all the remaining Spirit Stones you had, urging him to cultivate quickly." "After doing this, you went straight to Old Li and told him you wanted to observe the formations left by Senior Lu Wuya." "As you wished, you entered those formations." "In the eighteenth year, you continuously observed the formations and found the ce where the underground thunder originated." "However, you did not immediately set up a formation to draw out the underground Heavenly Thunder."N?v(el)B\\jnn "Because Old Li still asionally visited in the past year." "You felt that you couldn''t persuade the people of Spine Mountain to resolve the underground Heavenly Thunder together, so it was better not to let them know what you were doing." "Otherwise, if they drove you away, you would lose a valuable ce for cultivating Martial Dao." "In the neenth year, Old Li rarely came by anymore." "In the twentieth year, you set up an inverted seventh-grade Thunder Conduction Formation." "Once the formation waspleted, thunder roared out from the ground and struck your physical body." "You were struck until your skin was torn and you were severely injured, but thanks to the Yimu Divine Body, your physical body quickly recovered." "And your Martial Dao also continuously improved during this recovery process!" "In the following days, you spent every day under the strikes of thunder." "In the twenty-second year, your Martial Dao reached the second level of the True Core Realm." "In the twenty-fourth year, your Martial Dao reached the third level of the True Core Realm." "In the blink of an eye, decades passed." "In the thirty-ninth year, your Martial Dao finally reached the peak of the True Core Realm." "With the aid of the underground Heavenly Thunder at Spine Mountain, your Martial Dao steadily advanced by one level every two years!" "At this point, both your Martial Dao and Immortal Dao had reached their peaks, and you knew it was time to break through." "Thest time you made a major breakthrough, you chose to advance in Martial Dao first, which made it quite challenging to break through in the Immortal Dao afterward." "This time, you decided to break through in the Immortal Dao first." "After the Nascent Soul stage in the Immortal Daoes the Spirit Transformation stage." "The major difference between a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation stage and one in the Nascent Soul stage is the Primordial Spirit." "The Primordial Spirit is essentially an advanced state of Divine Sense." "Therefore, this breakthrough required you to use the Nascent Soul within your body to transform the Divine Sense in your Sea of Consciousness into a Primordial Spirit!" "This process took quite a long time, and it took you a full two months toplete the breakthrough and reach the first level of the Spirit Transformation stage." "However, after the breakthrough, you felt something strange." "Most people have only one Primordial Spirit, but it seemed like you had two?" "No, that didn''t seem quite right either." "The current situation was that you had one Primordial Spirit in your Sea of Consciousness, and another one inside your Nascent Soul." "It felt like your Nascent Soul was bing sentient!" "Confused, you decided not to dwell on it too much and began your breakthrough in Martial Dao." "After the True Core Realm in Martial Daoes the Unity Realm." "The key is to fully integrate the Primordial Energy shield of the True Core Realm into your body." "Once you achieve this, your body will have much stronger defensive capabilities in the future." "This breakthrough in Martial Dao also had an unexpected oue." "You discovered that your Nascent Soul was also integrating the Primordial Energy shield into itself." "Apart from this, nothing else unusual happened." "This breakthrough took you three months, and your Martial Dao advanced to the first level of the Unity Realm." "After the breakthrough, you looked at your Nascent Soul and felt something was off." "Is this still a Nascent Soul?" "It had a Primordial Spirit and a Martial Dao protective energy shield¡ªno, the shield had now been integrated into its body." "No matter how you looked at it, your Nascent Soul seemed more like a miniature cultivator." "Unable to figure it out, you decided to ignore it." "After all, it was something you had cultivated, so it shouldn''t be harmful." "In fact, what you didn''t know was that it wasn''t just harmless; it was incredibly beneficial." "This was the true power of the Divine Dao." "The key to the Divine Dao lies in the Nascent Soul." "It''s well known that strong cultivators in the Immortal Dao have two fatal weaknesses: the Nascent Soul and the Primordial Spirit!" "But because of your unique Nascent Soul, you essentially have only one weakness: the Nascent Soul." "Even if your Primordial Spirit perishes, you still have another one within your Nascent Soul, allowing you to survive." "And the Nascent Soul of the Divine Dao has a defense as strong as Martial Dao, making it difficult to kill." "In other words, cultivators of the same level in the Immortal Dao or Martial Dao can''t kill you!" "Of course, you didn''t know any of this; you just felt that your Nascent Soul was peculiar." "After the breakthrough, you found Old Li." "You told Old Li that there was a problem with the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya and hoped everyone could work together to resolve it." "Old Li quickly gathered everyone for a meeting." "In the end, your proposal was rejected." "You gave a helpless smile, realizing it still wouldn''t work." "You didn''t say anything more and continued your cultivation." Chapter 74: Giant hand that covered the sky [In the forty-second year, the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya copsed, causing heavy casualties at Spine Mountain.] [Seeing this situation, you were helpless.] [After all, a year ago, you had already warned everyone, but unfortunately, your words carried little weight, and most people didn''t believe you!] [In the forty-third year, Old Li led the remaining cultivators of Spine Mountain to find your father, Jiang Fushan, to discuss breaking out of the sealednd together.] [Because you had given your father a lot of spirit stone resources more than twenty years ago, elerating his cultivation progress, his cultivation level had now reached the ninth level of Tribtion Crossing.] [Your father volunteered to lead the charge and stated that he could set off at any time.] [Upon hearing this, Old Li and the others were naturally delighted. Having a master like your father, at the ninth level of Tribtion Crossing, leading the way undoubtedly increased their chances of breaking through the sealing formation.] [So they decided to set off immediately to brave the Desert of Death!] [You, who had been listening all along, quickly spoke up to stop them.][In this simtion, you had decided from the beginning to change the timing of venturing into the Desert of Death!] [After all, you knew that the Heavenly Thunder would descend in ten years, so there was no rush to enter the Desert of Death.] [You thought that since your father could cultivate from a mortal to the ninth level of Tribtion Crossing in just over thirty years, what could he achieve with another ten years?] [You believed that it was not impossible for your father to reach the realm of a celestial being by then!] [Once your father had the cultivation level of a celestial being, breaking through the sealing formation would be much easier.] [With a celestial father by your side, would there still be much danger from the Dragon Souls behind the formation''s rift?] [It was precisely because you knew there was still time that you jumped out to oppose.] [Hearing your objection, everyone turned to look at you.] [Their gazes were no longer friendly.] [After all, if they couldn''t leave here, most of them would likely be struck down by the Heavenly Thunder!] [Only your father, Jiang Fushan, looked at you with a smile and told you not to worry about his safety.] [You didn''t care about the others'' gazes, as you understood their feelings, but you had your reasons.] [However, facing your father''s words, you felt a bit guilty for a moment.] [You knew this was a simtion, not reality, so you hadn''t worried about your father''s safety at all!] [But you quickly adjusted and exined to everyone.] [You said that the guardian beasts were too powerful and suggested that everyone cultivate for a while longer before making the attempt.] [Everyone understood your point, but since they didn''t know when the Heavenly Thunder would descend, there weren''t many voices of agreement.] [Although you knew the timing of the Heavenly Thunder, you didn''t know how to exin it.] [For a moment, you were in a dilemma.] [In the end, the timing for venturing into the Desert of Death was postponed.] [The reason was actually quite simple: since you had spoken, how could your father, who doted on you, not listen!] [And with your father, the strongest among them, not moving, the others naturally didn''t dare to venture into the Desert of Death on their own.] [Seven years passed in the blink of an eye.] [In the fiftieth year, your Immortal Dao cultivation had also advanced to the third level of Spirit Transformation.] [Advancing two minor realms in seven years didn''t seem fast.] [But you knew otherwise; in these eight years, you hadn''t used any resources, relying solely on absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.] [This speed was something you couldn''t have imagined with your previous talent.] [As for why you didn''t use resources?] [Because you had given all the resources to your father, Jiang Fushan, hoping he could advance quickly.] [After all, your father''s talent was simply too extraordinary. You felt that investing in him might be more worthwhile.] [As long as your father was strong, he could safely break through the Desert of Death. Once in thend of Dragon Souls, you wouldn''t face much danger, and the simtion duration would surely increase.] [You thought you were incredibly clever!] [In the fifty-first year, your father emerged from seclusion.] [Several years ago, your father had already reached the peak of Tribtion Crossing and had been in seclusion preparing to break through to the celestial realm.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [This time, upon emerging, he immediately began his breakthrough.] [You saw him standing in the void, his aura continuously rising, causing the void to tremble.] [At this moment, thunder shed in the sky, striking down towards your father.] [For a moment, you couldn''t tell whether this was Heavenly Thunder or the tribtion lightning for bing a celestial.] [Your father, however, remained calm, facing the descending lightning head-on.] [Half an hourter, the tribtion lightning ceased, and your father, Jiang Fushan, sessfully broke through to the celestial realm.] [You breathed a sigh of relief, realizing it was the tribtion lightning and not Heavenly Thunder controlled by celestial beings.] [But just then, thunder rumbled in the sky once more.] [Purple-red Heavenly Thunder rapidly struck down towards your father.] ["Oh no..." you were momentarily stunned.] [You thought you should have anticipated this; if even breaking through to a Ten-Grade Golden Core would attract Heavenly Thunder controlled by celestial beings, how much more so for breaking through to the celestial realm.] [Unlike your worries, your father, Jiang Fushan,ughed heartily and shouted, "Bring it on!"] [Then you saw him directly attack the purple-red Heavenly Thunder.] [A few minutester, your father, Jiang Fushan, was unharmed, but the purple-red Heavenly Thunder hadpletely dissipated.] ["WTF, awesome, Dad." Seeing this, you were already jumping with joy in your heart!] [You thought that with such a strong father, the simtion duration would be stable from now on.] [But would it really be so?] [Just as the purple-red Heavenly Thunder dissipated, the void suddenly tore open.] [A giant hand that covered the sky descended from above.] [As this hand fell, the entire Southern Regions began to copse.] [No one in the Southern Regions survived.] [You died at the age of 71!] [This simtion has ended.] [You can choose two rewards from this simtion: Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root (Talent), Divine Dao Cultivation.] [Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root (Talent)]: Price 10 million energy value. [Divine Dao Cultivation]: Price 300 million energy value; Note: Includes Immortal Dao Cultivation (Spirit Transformation Level 3) and Martial Dao Cultivation (Unity Realm Level 1). The abrupt end of this simtion caught Jiang Yifeng off guard. Earlier, he had watched as his father, Jiang Fushan, broke through to be a celestial and thought everything was secure. He nned to leverage his father''s powerful strength to extend the simtion duration and improve his cultivation. But in the end, something unexpected happened. Jiang Yifeng was now somewhat puzzled. That giant hand covering the sky must have been the work of a powerful celestial being. But based on the information he had gathered from the Mystic Turtle, this shouldn''t have happened. The previous assumption was that powerful celestial beings were ying a game in the sealednd of the Southern Regions and wouldn''t easily make a move. So why did things suddenly change now? Chapter 75: Talent: Absolute Rationality Finally, Jiang Yifeng sighed and muttered to himself, "Forget it, I still don''t understand enough now. I''ll figure it out eventually!" Then he turned his attention to the rewards from this simtion. The rewards this time were quite good, just two items, so there was no need to agonize over the selection. In fact, this was part of his pre-simtion n, intentionally designed to achieve this oue. He believed that focusing on one thing during the simtion would be more cost-effective. If he practiced too many things during the simtion, the reward options would increase, but they wouldn''t be useful if he couldn''t bring them out. It''s better to specialize in one area. This way, he could make better use of the time in the simtion. Of course, Jiang Yifeng also understood that upgrading the simtor brought additional benefits. Otherwise, separating Immortal Dao and Martial Dao each time would take up two options.Moreover, his Divine Dao cultivation required simultaneous breakthroughs in both Immortal and Martial Dao, and he had to exchange them at the same time for a major realm upgrade. So, this time, he either couldn''t choose a talent, or his cultivation would be stuck at the Nascent Soul Realm and True Core Realm! Jiang Yifeng felt fortunate to have discovered the issue with upgrading the simtor in time. Otherwise, he wouldn''t know how much slower his progress would be. Without further thought, Jiang Yifeng silently chanted, "Exchange all!" [Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining the Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root (Talent), deducting 10 million energy points, remaining energy points: 1.9 billion...] [Ding, Divine Dao cultivation extracted sessfully, deducting 300 million energy points, remaining energy points: 1.6 billion...] As the electronic voice fell silent, Jiang Yifeng could feel his strength continuously rising. A few secondster, the enhancement wasplete. The instant boost gave Jiang Yifeng a momentary illusion of being terrifyingly powerful. Fortunately, the text from the simtion was still deeply imprinted in his mind, quickly reminding him that he was still just a novice. With everything settled, Jiang Yifeng opened his personal panel. [Host: Jiang Yifeng] [Talents: Eye of Insight, Random Enlightenment, Formation Dao Genius, Yimu Divine Body, Child of Fortune, Heaven Rewards Diligence, Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root] [Divine Dao Cultivation: Spirit Transformation Realm Level 3 (Immortal Dao), Unity Realm Level 1 (Martial Dao)] [Secondary Profession: Seventh-grade Formation Master (Eighth-grade Theory)] [Cultivation Techniques: Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao), War God Art (Martial Dao)] [Practiced Techniques: Wind Chasing Art (Mastered), Silent Destruction Fist (Minor Achievement)] [Laws and Mysteries: True Meaning of the Killing Dao (Beginner)] [Possessions: Spirit Stones (pieces), War God Art, Heavenly Profound Art, Wind Chasing Art, Breath Concealing Talisman, Teleportation Jade te] Looking at the talents in his personal attribute panel, Jiang Yifeng softly called out, "Simtor, ce Child of Fortune into the talent pool!" [Ding, sessfully extracted the host''s talent Child of Fortune, stored in the talent pool.] Hearing the simtor''s prompt, Jiang Yifeng breathed a sigh of relief. He had impulsively chosen the Child of Fortune talent back then. It had caused him a lot of trouble in reality, constantly encountering dropped spirit stones! It wasn''t that he disliked it, but with his simtion experience, he knew that once he picked up a spirit stone, the person who dropped it would definitely appear, leading to a fight. This would expose his identity as a cultivator, making it hard to stay hidden in Green Hills City. The talent was good, but it didn''t suit his real-life situation. It was better to use it during simtions. With everything done, Jiang Yifeng called his butler, Jiang Dafu, to continue collecting various ores, gold, and silver. Now, he only had over 1.6 billion energy points left, which didn''t seem like enough. After giving his instructions, Jiang Yifeng leisurely headed towards the Spring Blossom Pavilion. This time, he finally didn''t find any silver notes or spirit stones on the road. This greatly boosted Jiang Yifeng''s sense of security. Days spent listening to music in the pleasure house always passed quickly. Seven days flew by, and it was time for the simtion count to refresh. Jiang Yifeng waited in his room early. In the past few days, butler Jiang Dafu hadn''t collected many ores. So Jiang Yifeng wasn''t in a hurry to exchange them. At this moment, he still had over 1.6 billion energy points. While waiting for the simtion count to refresh, Jiang Yifeng made a rough n for this simtion. "Start simtion!" As soon as the simtion count refreshed, Jiang Yifeng silently chanted. [Simtion count consumed: 1, remaining count: 0] [Drawing Purple Talent consumes 1 million energy points, drawing Orange Talent with a chance consumes 10 million energy points, please choose!] "Choose the chance to draw Orange Talent." [Ding, 10 million energy points deducted, talent being randomly drawn, remaining energy points: 1.5 billion...] [Congrattions to the host for obtaining Purple Talent: Heart of Rationality.] [Heart of Rationality]: You can maintain absolute rationality in any situation. (Note: Absolute rationality will make you only weigh pros and cons, appearing unfeeling and even annoying!) Jiang Yifeng''s first impression of this talent was not good. This talent sounded like it would turn him into a cold, emotionless machine. But on second thought, if he only used it in simtions, it might have a different effect. After all, absolute rationality was something he didn''t possess. But no matter what, even if he got this talent, it could only be stored in the talent pool and definitely couldn''t be used in reality. While Jiang Yifeng was still lost in thought, the simtor''s voice sounded. [Ding: Does the host want to choose a talent from the talent pool?] [Talents in the pool: Child of Fortune, Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root.] "Choose Child of Fortune!" Without hesitation, Jiang Yifeng made his choice. [Ding, talent Child of Fortune obtained.] [22nd simtion begins.] [With the Heart of Rationality, you quickly realize you are in a simtion.] [You try to open the simtor within the simtion to create a nested simtion, but you are destined to fail. In the simtion, you do not have this simtor!] [Day 1, you go to the Spring Blossom Pavilion to listen to music and take the opportunity to connect with the Immortal ve, Qiu Zhixuan.] [Day 2, you date Qiu Zhixuan again, subtly expressing your fondness for her.] ... [Day 10, you feel that Qiu Zhixuan doesn''t dislike you, so you seize the moment to confess your feelings.] [Unsurprisingly, you are rejected.] [But you are not discouraged.] [In the following days, you use various modern flirting techniques on Qiu Zhixuan.] [Three years pass in the blink of an eye.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [You finally seed in breaking down Qiu Zhixuan''s defenses.] [In the fourth year, you and Qiu Zhixuan start living a shameless life together.] [In the fifth year, you work hard, hoping to have a child with Qiu Zhixuan.] [You suddenly feel that your past self was so foolish. If you had chosen the Perfect Aim talent back then, you wouldn''t have to work so hard every day now.] [In the seventh year, Qiu Zhixuan shyly tells you that she is pregnant with your baby.] [You show a joyful smile.] [Qiu Zhixuan looks at you, thinking that this smile is more beautiful than any smile you''ve ever given her before.] [She doesn''t know that your previous smiles were all fake, just to get her and use her.] [But this time, you genuinely smiled.] [You feel that you are one step closer to your n.] Chapter 76: Pah, scumbag [Year Eight, Qiu Zhixuan gave birth to a baby for you, and you named the child Jiang Lianqiu.] [This action moved Qiu Zhixuan to tears once again.] [At this moment, you felt the time was ripe.] [On a certain day afterward, when Qiu Zhixuan was with the baby, you deliberately ran back with an excited look on your face.] [You told Qiu Zhixuan that you had gained an opportunity to cultivate and be immortal.] [You said to her that a mortal''s life is too short, and you wanted to be with her forever, inviting her to cultivate together.] [Upon hearing your words, Qiu Zhixuan burst into tears.] [At this moment, she had already forgotten her identity and mission as an Immortal ve; her heart was filled with only gratitude and guilt.] [Qiu Zhixuan felt that she was a bad woman, that she had wronged you. You had gained a chance to cultivate and be immortal, and the first person you thought of was her.][Yet she, being a cultivator herself, had never thought of bringing you into immortality.] [Qiu Zhixuan didn''t know that her current thoughts were exactly the effect you wanted, all caused by your deliberate guidance.] [In the end, Qiu Zhixuan still revealed her true identity to you.] [After revealing her identity, she looked at you cautiously, worried that you would despise her and think of her as a murderous demon.] [But you, without any hesitation, expressed that you wouldn''t mind!] [You told her that all you wanted was to be with her forever, regardless of whether she was an Immortal ve or what she had done.] [As soon as you finished speaking, Qiu Zhixuan threw herself into your arms, choking with emotion, saying: she also wanted to be with you forever!] In reality, Jiang Yifeng looked at the developments in the simtor, feeling a bit numb. He couldn''t help but curse under his breath: "Pah, scumbag!" He had already roughly understood what his simted self was trying to do. He thought that his simted self wanted to use Qiu Zhixuan to join the Immortal Arrival Sect.N?v(el)B\\jnn After all, ording to what Jiang Yifeng knew, only the people of the Immortal Arrival Sect could avoid the impending Heavenly Thunder. But this was not Jiang Yifeng''s original n. After gaining the Absolute Rationality talent, his simted self had changed his n. This gave him a sense of insecurity. If his simted self was out of control, could it still be considered himself? "Hu!" Jiang Yifeng took a deep breath. He felt that after this simtion ended, he would have to seriously consider whether to keep the Absolute Rationality talent. Of course, if only considering the situation in the simtion, Jiang Yifeng also knew that perhaps the current choice was indeed the most correct one. But if it were him, his moral bottom line would find it very hard to think in this direction. It wasn''t that Jiang Yifeng was opposed to joining the Immortal Arrival Sect to seek a way out. But deliberately approaching and using Qiu Zhixuan''s feelings to join the Immortal Arrival Sect was something he had never thought of. Jiang Yifeng felt that perhaps his moral bottom line was still not low enough! Without thinking further, Jiang Yifeng continued to watch the developments in the simtion. He wanted to see what else his absolutely rational self could do. [Year Nine, you began to openly cultivate in front of Qiu Zhixuan.] [However, to make it seem more reasonable, you deliberately disguised yourself as just a Qi Refining stage novice in the Immortal Dao.] [As someone in the Divine Transformation Realm, you naturally couldn''t be seen through by Qiu Zhixuan, who was only in the Foundation Establishment stage.] [Year Ten, you raised your apparent cultivation level to the third level of the Foundation Establishment stage, reaching the same major realm as Qiu Zhixuan.] [This surprised Qiu Zhixuan greatly. She said that her husband, you, was a cultivation genius.] [However, your rapid advancement also made Qiu Zhixuan feel inferior.] [She felt that she was no longer worthy of you, that with your talent, you would surely surpass her quickly and reach a very high realm.] [After this, she began to distance herself from you, both intentionally and unintentionally.] [But this was all within your expectations.] [Actually, you didn''t have a better solution, because to join the Immortal Arrival Sect through Qiu Zhixuan, you had to meet her grandfather.] [And he was a Tribtion Crossing Realm expert; your true cultivation level couldn''t be hidden from him.] [So, you had to show astonishing talent before meeting him, making Qiu Zhixuan believe that you had made breakthroughs during this period.] [Of course, normal cultivation couldn''t possibly reach the Spirit Transformation stage in just a few years, but you had a backup n, provided you had astonishing talent.] [However, you knew you couldn''t really distance yourself from Qiu Zhixuan.] [So, one day, you found Qiu Zhixuan and told her that you didn''t want to cultivate anymore.] [You told her that you cultivated only to be with her longer, but now, because of cultivation, you were drifting further apart, which was not what you wanted.] [Very good, you once again moved Qiu Zhixuan to tears.] [After this, your rtionship with Qiu Zhixuan became close again.] [However, Qiu Zhixuan''s cultivation became even more diligent; she also wanted to keep up with your pace.] [Year Twelve, you pretended to break through to the Perfect Foundation Establishment stage, reaching the same cultivation level as Qiu Zhixuan.] [On a certain day of the same year, you felt the ground tremble.] [You knew that the Immortal Dao inheritance was about to appear.] [A smile couldn''t help but rise in your heart; the n was finally about to officially begin.] [Soon, a huge crack appeared in the ground of Green Hills City. You held Qiu Zhixuan and the child, falling into it together.] [You were all cultivators, so you weren''t harmed.] [After entering the inheritance hall, a beam of white light from the inheritance shot straight at you.] [This time, you didn''t refuse.] [In front of Qiu Zhixuan, you began to formally ept the inheritance.] [Seeing this, Qiu Zhixuan thought it might be some kind of opportunity.] [In Qiu Zhixuan''s eyes, as you received the inheritance, your aura grew stronger, and your cultivation level kept rising.] [She felt a bit jealous, but more than that, she was happy for you. After all, you were her man, someone she could give everything for.] [So, Qiu Zhixuan stood not far from you, protecting you.] [But she didn''t know that this was all your deliberate doing.] [This inheritance couldn''t directly boost cultivation; you had known this for a long time.] [After all, in a previous simtion, your father had also received the inheritance and had to cultivate step by step.] [But does that matter? No, it doesn''t!] [You just needed to show a bit of your strength during the inheritance process.] [As for the reason, it was to make everything seem more reasonable.] [After all, reaching the Spirit Transformation stage in just a few years was hard to believe, but if you had received the Immortal Dao inheritance?] [It suddenly made sense.] [All of this was just preparation for meeting Qiu Zhixuan''s grandfather.] Chapter 77: Am I really this smart? As for this inheritance, the true nature of it is that it only records an unparalleled immortal technique, the "Devouring Spirit Art," along with some other immortal arts and knowledge. Of course, besides the memories, there is also a consciousness left behind by the one who passed on the inheritance, but this consciousness is about to dissipate. Three dayster, you are still receiving the inheritance, learning those techniques and knowledge; a shadowy figure appears. You know this person is the Immortal ve, Yang Zuo, but you ignore him. Because the moment Yang Zuo appears, Qiu Zhixuan is already standing in front of you, blocking him. Qiu Zhixuan''s grandfather, Qiu Kuang, is an elder of the Immortal Arrival Sect, and Yang Zuo knows Qiu Zhixuan. At this moment, he is somewhat surprised by Qiu Zhixuan''s actions. However, as an Immortal ve, Yang Zuo clearly knows what he should do. He does not let Qiu Zhixuan''s obstruction give him the idea of sparing you.Seeing that Yang Zuo still has the desire to act, Qiu Zhixuan, not being foolish, knows that her Perfect Foundation Establishment is no match for Yang Zuo''s Core Formation stage. So, Qiu Zhixuan directly takes out themunication jade her grandfather gave her, shouting for help, saying Yang Zuo wants to kill her. Soon, Qiu Kuang''s anxious voicees from themunication jade, saying he will be there immediately. For a moment, Yang Zuo is truly frightened. However, Yang Zuo thinks that since he hasn''t harmed Qiu Zhixuan, if Elder Qiu Kuang arrives, he shouldn''t me him. And you, a person who cultivates in secret, are certainly doomed, so he is not in a hurry to act. Neither Qiu Zhixuan nor Yang Zuo knows that the current situation is exactly as you nned. You brought Qiu Zhixuan to this ce of inheritance, not only to let her see you "break through" with the help of the inheritance. But also to draw out her grandfather, Qiu Kuang. If you directly asked to see her grandfather, Qiu Kuang might suspect your intentions. After all, he is an old fellow who has cultivated for many years, and you wouldn''t underestimate his intelligence. But now, using Yang Zuo''s arrival to create a crisis, making Qiu Zhixuan call for help; in this situation, meeting Qiu Kuang seems very natural. Everything happens naturally, and you did not participate, so it is impossible for them to suspect you. After all, in their eyes, you couldn''t have predicted Yang Zuo''s appearance, so how could they guess it was your n? As for meeting Qiu Kuang, you know there will definitely be some danger, but you feel it is within control. Qiu Zhixuan will definitely plead for you, and then you can smoothly join the Immortal Arrival Sect through Qiu Kuang. In this way, your n is almost halfpleted. In reality, Jiang Yifeng looks at the development in the simtion. A doubt suddenly arises in his mind. Am I really this smart? One step after another, did I reallye up with this? For a moment, he feels a bit proud. Sure enough, I am a genius. Feeling a bit smug, Jiang Yifeng continues to look at the simtor. In the blink of an eye, more than two hours pass, and Qiu Kuang appears at the ce of inheritance. At this moment, you timely use the inheritance to "break through" to the third level of the Divine Transformation Realm. However, after Qiu Kuang appears, he doesn''t care about you but first checks if Qiu Zhixuan is injured. After confirming she is fine, he begins to ask about the situation. Before Qiu Zhixuan can speak, Yang Zuo tells him what he saw. Qiu Kuang realizes that everything started because of this inheritance. Only then does he begin to observe you, and seeing that you have already reached the third level of the Divine Transformation Realm, Qiu Kuang doesn''t hesitate and directly attacks you. At this moment, Qiu Zhixuan, holding the baby that was ced aside earlier, stands in front of you and says to Qiu Kuang: If you want to kill, then kill all three of us! These words leave Qiu Kuang stunned. However, being an old and cunning man, Qiu Kuang quickly reacts. He withdraws his attack in time, spitting out a mouthful of old blood in the process. Qiu Kuang res at you coldly, his belly full of anger. His beloved granddaughter actually considers you more family than him, which is simply intolerable. But now, if he kills you, what will happen to his beloved granddaughter? For a moment, Qiu Kuang is also at a loss, wanting to vent his frustration on something. So, Qiu Kuang ps Yang Zuo, who is standing obediently to the side. Instantly, Yang Zuo turns into a mist of blood, his life extinguished. Of course, this is not Qiu Kuang venting his anger, but because Yang Zuo knows too much. No matter how things are resolved in the end, Yang Zuo cannot be left alive. After this, Qiu Kuang pulls Qiu Zhixuan aside and asks for detailed information about you. He even asks Qiu Zhixuan to recount everything from the moment she met you. Clearly, Qiu Kuang doesn''t trust you. This makes Qiu Zhixuan a bit shy, but she honestly starts from the beginning. Just the initial part makes Qiu Kuang''s face change.N?v(el)B\\jnn He looks at you as if he wants to kill you. But you are not worried at all because you know that Qiu Zhixuan is only talking about your past as a yboy, listening to music in pleasure houses. You know this might make Qiu Kuang unhappy, but it definitely won''t touch his bottom line. As time passes, Qiu Zhixuan tells Qiu Kuang about your pursuit of her, how you discovered a cultivation opportunity, and even sought her out to cultivate together. Hearing this, Qiu Kuang''s expression changes, and he looks at you more kindly. After all, in the eyes of cultivators, opportunities are above all else, and sometimes even Daopanions would fight over opportunities. The fact that you thought of his granddaughter first when you got the opportunity gives Qiu Kuang a bit of a good impression of you. Finally, as Qiu Zhixuan finishes her story, Qiu Kuang also learns that your cultivation talent is very strong. In just four years, you went from a mortal to the peak of Foundation Establishment. And your current cultivation level is because of this inheritance, which you improved in just a few days. After Qiu Zhixuan finishes, Qiu Kuang basically rules out the possibility that you approached his granddaughter with ulterior motives. He thinks you are just a lucky person with strong cultivation talent who gained the favor of the inheritance, and of course, he also thinks you are a romantic, willing to share cultivation opportunities. Qiu Kuang feels that if this was a deliberate approach with hidden cultivation, it would be too unreliable and he can''t think of your motive. Moreover, there are too many uncontroble factors. For example, if it weren''t for this inheritance, your cultivation level would be hard to exin. He doesn''t know that you clearly knew the time of the inheritance''s appearance and that it would definitely find you. Of course, the most crucial point is that he wouldn''t think that a local cultivator like you would aim to join the Immortal Arrival Sect. After all, such things rarely happened before. Chapter 78: Immortal Arrival Sect Examination [Everything that followed went ording to your expectations.] [After Qiu Kuang learned about your rtionship with Qiu Zhixuan, he didn''t kill you outright. Instead, out of respect for Qiu Zhixuan and Jiang Lianqiu, he allowed you to join the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [You pretended to hesitate for a moment before agreeing.] [However, Qiu Kuang also mentioned that it wasn''t easy for outsiders to join the Immortal Arrival Sect; you would need to pass a series of tests.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [You were well aware of this, as it had been mentioned in previous simtions.] [In that simtion, you had the Intelligence Reduction Aura talent, and before the tests could even begin, the members of the Immortal Arrival Sect fell into chaos due to your aura, and you were ultimately struck down by Heavenly Thunder.] [This time, without the influence of the Intelligence Reduction Aura, you felt confident that things would go smoothly.] [As you wished, Qiu Kuang brought you to the capital of the Great Abyssal Kingdom, which also housed a branch of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [Of course, Qiu Zhixuan and Jiang Lianqiu were also brought along.][Upon arrival, Qiu Kuang arranged for you to stay in a separate courtyard and warned you not to wander around, as it could be dangerous.] [You understood Qiu Kuang''s concerns. With your current cultivation level and not being a member of the Immortal Arrival Sect, you were indeed in a precarious position on their territory.] [You could easily be killed by an Immortal ve.] [Even without Qiu Kuang''s warning, you wouldn''t have wandered around carelessly.] [Half a year passed in the blink of an eye.] [During this time, you spent your days in intimate moments with Qiu Zhixuan and taking care of Jiang Lianqiu.] [This made Qiu Kuang, who had been secretly observing you for half a year, feel more at ease.] [Not long after, Qiu Kuang brought a stranger, an Immortal ve, to see you.] [Qiu Kuang told you that he had spoken with the sect master, and as long as you passed the tests, you could join the Immortal Arrival Sect and receive their token.] [The stranger beside him was to be your examiner.] [Feigning excitement, you secretly used the Eye of Insight talent to observe the stranger.] [Through your observation, you learned that the stranger''s name was Gu Qing, a formidable expert at the third level of Tribtion Crossing, even stronger than Qiu Kuang.] [You pondered for a moment. Having such a powerful expert as your examiner showed that the Immortal Arrival Sect took these tests very seriously.] [As a local cultivator trying to join the Immortal Arrival Sect, it was indeed a form of infiltration, and they couldn''t afford to take it lightly.] [If it weren''t for Qiu Kuang''s guarantee, you wouldn''t even have the chance to be tested!] [Over the years, many local cultivators had tried to join the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [After all, joining the Immortal Arrival Sect meant a chance at survival.] [However, they were all ruthlessly rejected and killed by the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [Only those with connections to the high-ranking members of the sect, like you, had a slim chance.] [Gu Qing took you away directly.] [Three dayster, you received your first test task from Gu Qing: "Massacre a city."] [You were momentarily stunned upon hearing this task.] [However, you quickly weighed the pros and cons and, without hesitation, massacred three cities in a row!] [Millions of civilians perished at your hands.] [Gu Qing merely nced at you coldly and remarked on your ruthlessness, without directly telling you whether you had passed.] [Soon, Gu Qing assigned you a second test task.] [This time, it was more challenging; you had to kill ten cultivators.] [It took you five days to find and kill ten cultivators,pleting the task.] [Afterward, Gu Qing brought you back to the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [You thought the tasks were over, but you were wrong.] [Gu Qing brought you before Qiu Zhixuan and pointed at her, instructing you to kill her!] [Upon hearing this task, your rational mind didn''t feel any reluctance, but you sensed something was off.] [Killing mortals and local cultivators made sense, as the Immortal Arrival Sect was known for such deeds.] [But killing Qiu Zhixuan was clearly unreasonable.] [After all, you were brought back by Qiu Kuang. If the task involved killing his granddaughter, would he still let you take the tests?] [Such an unreasonable task was definitely suspicious, so you chose to refuse.] [Gu Qing coldly shouted at you, saying that either Qiu Zhixuan dies and you join the Immortal Arrival Sect, or you die.] [At the same time, Gu Qing''s terrifying aura erupted, and he began to gather a spell in his hand.] [Judging by his stance, if you continued to refuse, you would undoubtedly die.] [Remaining calm, you shook your head and refused, telling Gu Qing that even if it meant your death, you wouldn''t let Qiu Zhixuan be harmed.] [At this moment, Gu Qing sneered and said, "Do you think I''m testing your feelings? Haha, this is the test to join the Immortal Arrival Sect. If you can''t do it, then die!"] [As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Qing''s spell shot towards you.] [Hearing Gu Qing''s words, you suddenly felt a bit shaken.] [Could this really be the test to join the Immortal Arrival Sect? Was it not Qiu Kuang''s test for you? Did you make the wrong choice?] [As Gu Qing''s attack drew closer, you steeled your resolve, closed your eyes, and quietly awaited the attack.] [You bet that your choice was correct.] [After a long time, the attack nevernded on you.] [You knew you had won the bet.] [This time, you hadpletely passed the tests of the Immortal Arrival Sect and Qiu Kuang.] [In fact, the tests of the Immortal Arrival Sect only involved massacring cities and killing cultivators.] [The final test to kill Qiu Zhixuan was proposed by Qiu Kuang.] [After learning from Gu Qing about your cold-blooded massacre of three cities, Qiu Kuang became suspicious of you again, leading to the previous scene!] [After all, even members of the Immortal Arrival Sect couldn''t be so cold-blooded.] [After passing all the tests, you were brought to the headquarters of the Immortal Arrival Sect by Qiu Kuang and Gu Qing, where you received a jade talisman from Shen Wuyou.] [This was the token of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [Qiu Kuang told you that by dripping a drop of your blood onto the jade talisman, you would officially be a member of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [Once the blood was on the talisman, members of the Immortal Arrival Sect would be able to sense each other and wouldn''t mistake you for a local cultivator.] [More importantly, the Heavenly Thunder that struck every few decades would no longer target you.] [This was your goal, so you didn''t hesitate at all.] [You immediately dripped your blood onto the jade talisman, bing a member of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] Chapter 79: IReverse Heavens [Year 13, you killed hundreds of cultivators from the Southern Regions, bing a model worker for the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [This was actually a task from the Immortal Arrival Sect, where everyone had to kill three cultivators or seekers of immortality each year.] [You killed so many cultivators in one year toplete decades'' worth of tasks in advance.] [Year 14, you left the Great Abyssal Kingdom with Qiu Zhixuan and your child Jiang Nianqiu.] [At this point, you hadpleted a century''s worth of tasks for the Immortal Arrival Sect, so unless there was an emergency, you were free!] [Year 16, you arrived outside the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords, but by then, Qiu Zhixuan and your child Jiang Nianqiu were no longer with you.] [You took Qiu Zhixuan with you to deceive Qiu Kuang, as you had always maintained the persona of a deeply affectionate man.] [Now, you had ced Qiu Zhixuan in a remote vige.] [Originally, you nned to kill her, but you were worried that Qiu Kuang might have a way to sense Qiu Zhixuan''s life and death.][In the end, you chose to deceive Qiu Zhixuan, telling her that you needed toprehend the Dao and it might take many years, asking her to wait for you there.] [Qiu Zhixuanpletely fell into your love trap; otherwise, such a lie would be hard to believe.] [You knew this well, which is why you dared to do it!] [At this moment, you looked at the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords in the distance, thought for a moment, then raised your head and said to the void, "Come in!"] [After a long time with no response, you said again, "The me outside,e in for a deep simtion of seven years!"] Jiang Yifeng''s eyes widened as he read this. What¡¯s going on? A mere simtion tool, daring tomand me? Teaching me what to do! This is simply reversing the heavens! However, Jiang Yifeng quickly came to his senses. Entering a deep simtion at this time was indeed a good choice. After all, once inside, he would have the Absolute Rationality talent, which, judging by its name, should offer some resistance to theprehension of killing intent. Moreover, deep simtion could save the number of times he needed to exchange rewards. Since that was the case, he might as well go for it! Of course, Jiang Yifeng insisted that it was his own decision to enter the deep simtion, and not because he wasmanded by the simtion tool. "Start a deep simtion for seven years!" [Ding, starting deep simtion for seven years, deducting 613.2 million energy points, remaining energy points 900 million...] Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness instantly entered the simtion. At this moment, Jiang Yifeng, who had entered the deep simtion, also possessed the Absolute Rationality talent. He surveyed his surroundings and then stepped directly into the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords, beginning toprehend killing intent. Jiang Yifeng''s killing intent was already at the entry level, and with the Absolute Rationality talent, the killing intent in the outer area could hardly affect him. He began to gradually move toward the middleyer of the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords. In the days that followed, Jiang Yifeng continued toprehend killing intent in the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords. Seven years passed in the blink of an eye. [Ding, deep simtion ended!] With the simtor''s prompt, Jiang Yifeng''s deep simtion came to an end. Jiang Yifeng returned to the Jiang Family Mansion in Green Hills City! Sensing his own killing intent, Jiang Yifeng found that it had reached the peak of the minor achievement stage. This progress was much stronger than thest deep simtion. Last time, after several years of deep simtion, he had even gone mad and only reached the entry level. Now he had directly reached the peak of the minor achievement stage. One had to admit, the Absolute Rationality talent was quite powerful, even a bit overpowered. However, Jiang Yifeng felt that the side effects were quite severe. It was almost like losing one''s humanity. Just look at what he had done to Qiu Zhixuan in the simtion. Without thinking much, Jiang Yifeng continued to look at the simtor. [Year 23, you knew that Wu Youdao woulde here in another year, but in this simtion, you did not n to meet him.] [So, you left the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [After all, from previous simtions, it seemed that Wu Youdao might also be at odds with the people from the Immortal Spirit Sect.] [You worried that if you met him, your identity as an Immortal ve might be exposed, putting you in danger.] [Year 24, you found Qiu Zhixuan.] [At this time, Qiu Zhixuan was still waiting for you in that vige.] [Your son, Jiang Nianqiu, was already sixteen years old.] [You knew clearly what you wanted.] [So you just appeared in front of them, pretended to be affectionate for a while.] [Not long after, you began to cultivate in seclusion in the vige.] [This time, you still chose to cultivate the Immortal Dao.] [But instead of cultivating the Heavenly Profound Art, you cultivated the Devouring Spirit Art inherited from the Immortal Dao.] [The cultivation of the Devouring Spirit Art made you feel the terror of an immortal-level technique.] [Its speed of absorbing spiritual energy was just like its name, not absorbing, but devouring.] [After switching to the Devouring Spirit Art, you clearly felt your cultivation speed increase several times.] [Year 26, you cultivated the Immortal Dao and sessfully broke through to the fourth level of Spirit Transformation.] [Year 28, your Immortal Dao cultivation broke through to the fifth level of Spirit Transformation.] [In the blink of an eye, ten years passed.] [Year 38, your Immortal Dao cultivation broke through to the ninth level of Spirit Transformation.] [At the same time, your spiritual energy finally allowed you to set up eighth-grade formations, making you an eighth-grade Formation Master.] [Feeling your own strength, you were somewhat dissatisfied.]n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [Although the techniques inherited from the Immortal Dao elerated your cultivation speed, even at the Spirit Transformation stage, you maintained the same speed as the Nascent Soul stage.] [But you felt it was not enough;pared to your father who reached the Tribtion Crossing stage in just over 30 years, your speed was far behind.] [You frowned, thinking you had underestimated things.] [You previously thought that your father''s rapid advancement was at least half due to the inheritance.] [Now it seemed that was not the case; your father must have other secrets.] [You thought you might need to return to Green Hills City to take a look.] [As soon as you stepped out of your seclusion, Qiu Zhixuan ran towards you with a smile.] [You were not surprised by this; during these years, you were not inplete seclusion and would asionallye out to cultivate feelings with Qiu Zhixuan.] [Your rtionship with Qiu Zhixuan had not cooled down.] [On the contrary, because of your asional appearances, she became even more infatuated with you.] [As for your son Jiang Nianqiu, after reaching adulthood, he was sent to Qiu Kuang by Qiu Zhixuan and became an Immortal ve as well.] [After a moment of affection with Qiu Zhixuan, you told her you wanted to go home and take a look.] [So you took Qiu Zhixuan and headed towards Green Hills City.] [Year 39, you finally returned to Green Hills City.] [However, you did not find your father Jiang Fushan.] [In fact, no one from the Jiang Family was there.] [After inquiring from various sources, you learned that decades ago, the entire Jiang n Firm had suddenly relocated on arge scale, and their whereabouts were unknown.] Chapter 80: Without inheritance, the father still reached the Eighth Layer of Tribulation! [In this simtion, you obtained the Immortal Dao inheritance, but your father, Jiang Fushan, still left Green Hills City.] [At this moment, you are even more certain that your father has other secrets.] [He must have experienced other events during this time.] [Otherwise, you don''t think your father would suddenly leave with the entire Jiang Family.] [After all, the Jiang n Firm is one of the top firms in the secr world, making countless profits daily. If it weren''t for something extraordinary, who would abandon it?] [What exactly happened?] [Without any useful information, you can''t deduce anything for now.] [However, you can basically conclude that this incident was sudden and hadn''t appeared in previous simtions.] [After all, in previous simtions, apart from the Immortal Dao inheritance, nothing else happened that would make your father abandon the Jiang n Firm and flee with the entire family.][This time, since you obtained the inheritance, it must mean that an event urred that hadn''t appeared in previous simtions!] [At this moment, you are even more certain that your father has other secrets.] [However, based on previous simtions, you believe that your father, Jiang Fushan, is also unaware of the secrets he carries.] [After pondering for a moment, you decide not to dwell on it further.] [Since you couldn''t find your father, Jiang Fushan, you decide to leave this matter for future simtions to handle!] [Thus, you leave directly with Qiu Zhixuan.] [After this, you immerse yourself in cultivation once again.] [However, because your Immortal Dao cultivation level is nearing the peak of Spirit Transformation, you begin to practice Martial Dao.] [After all, to break through to a higher realm, both must reach perfection.] [But this time, in your Martial Dao advancement, you no longer have the assistance of the Heavenly Thunder from beneath Spine Mountain.] [Fortunately, because you obtained the War God Art from previous simtions, even without the Heavenly Thunder, your Martial Dao can still improve through practicing the War God Art!] [However, the speed is rtively slower.] [But this was within your expectations.] [Although your Martial Dao cultivation has slowed, you joined the Immortal Arrival Sect, and you believe your simtion time will certainly extend.] [The gains and losses here are subjective.] [In the forty-second year, after three full years, your Martial Dao progress is not ideal, still not breaking through the minor realm, only reaching the peak of the firstyer of the Unity Realm.] [In the forty-third year, you and Qiu Zhixuan receive a summoning order from the Immortal Arrival Sect, requiring you to return immediately.] [Such a summoning order is rare in the Immortal Arrival Sect, even Qiu Zhixuan, who was born in the sect, is receiving it for the first time.] [Qiu Zhixuan is somewhat puzzled, not knowing what has happened at the headquarters.] [But you have some guesses in your heart.] [You remember that this year is when the cultivators from Spine Mountain venture into the Desert of Death.] [The Immortal Arrival Sect summoning all Immortal ves at this time must be rted to this matter.] [A few dayster, you return to the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [As expected, the sect master Shen Wuyou issued the summoning order to deal with the cultivators from Spine Mountain.] [However, Shen Wuyou is not nning to stop the cultivators from Spine Mountain from entering the Desert of Death.] [Instead, he wants all Immortal ves to force the cultivators from Spine Mountain into the Desert of Death.] [If any cultivators try to escape, the Immortal ves will then intercept and kill them!] [Hearing Shen Wuyou''s n, you think to yourself: As expected, few cultivators are truly foolish!] [Shen Wuyou knows he can''t defeat Old Li, so he never nned to confront them head-on.] [Instead, he wants the cultivators from Spine Mountain to venture deep into the Desert of Death, letting the Demonic Dragon kill them.] [The Immortal ves'' task is merely to monitor everything, and if any slip through and try to escape, they will then act.] [You suddenly understand why in previous simtions, when you and the others from Spine Mountain ventured into the Desert of Death, there weren''t many Immortal ves obstructing you, only making a few symbolic moves.] [It turns out the Immortal ves never intended to stop them from the beginning.] [In the blink of an eye, a few days pass, and you and the Immortal ves from the Immortal Arrival Sect have followed the cultivators from Spine Mountain to the outskirts of the Desert of Death.] [You see Old Li and the cultivators from Spine Mountain already engaged in a fierce battle with the Demonic Python in the Desert of Death.] [And the person fighting the Demonic Dragon in the Desert of Death is actually your father, Jiang Fushan.] [For a moment, you are stunned.] [Even though you obtained the Immortal Dao inheritance, your father now possesses the strength of the Eighth Layer of Tribtion.] [Is this reasonable?] [In the blink of an eye, three days pass, and the battle between the Demonic Dragon and your father in the skyes to an end.] [Your father is defeated, falling into the desert, never to rise again, his life or death unknown.] [After your father''s defeat, many cultivators from Spine Mountain begin to flee towards the outskirts of the Desert of Death.] [This is the moment for you Immortal ves to act.] [With a rational mind, you do not let your father''s situation affect your emotions and actively participate in the killing of the cultivators from Spine Mountain.] [In the blink of an eye, half a month passes, and most of the cultivators from Spine Mountain have been killed, with only a few escaping.] [All of you Immortal ves return to the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [Shen Wuyou rewards those who performed exceptionally in this operation.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [Due to your bravery in battle and the number of low-realm cultivators you killed, you are among those rewarded and promoted to an elite disciple!] [You are quite satisfied with this, as your bravery in killing enemies was precisely for this reason!] [In the Immortal Arrival Sect, the hierarchy is strict and clear, divided into ordinary disciples, elite disciples, guardian disciples, elders, and finally the sect master.] [Previously, you were an ordinary disciple in the Immortal Spirit Sect, with no privileges, only following orders, essentially the lowest rank.] [But now it''s different. As an elite disciple, you can receive some cultivation resources from the Immortal Arrival Sect each year and select some cultivation techniques from the Technique Pavilion.] [Although you have the War God Art and are not interested in ordinary techniques, and the cultivation resources may not help you much, you still think the promotion is necessary.] [Now that you have more privileges as an elite disciple, the higher levels will certainly have even greater privileges.] [You think that if you can continue to rise to higher levels, you might obtain some information from the Immortal Arrival Sect that you couldn''t know before.] [For example, who is the celestial being Shen Wuyou contacted in previous simtions? How exactly did he contact them?] [Also, does the Immortal Arrival Sect have any records on why the celestial being isying out ns in the Southern Regions?] [These are things you are quite interested in.] [Of course, these are just things you do along the way.] [You know that your main goal is still to improve your strength.] [You deeply understand that only with great strength can you save yourself; everything else is secondary.] Chapter 81: You, with Absolute Rationality, still cannot remain calm [In the days that followed, you resumed your martial cultivation.] [In the forty-fifth year, you sessfully broke through to the second level of the Unity Realm.] [In the forty-seventh year, while cultivating the War God Art, you triggered the talent of Random Enlightenment, gaining ten times the cultivation speed and a more active mind.] [This enlightenmentsted for eight months, and your martial cultivation advanced to the third level of the Unity Realm.] [In the fifty-second year, your martial cultivation broke through to the fourth level of the Unity Realm.] [In the fifty-third year, while cultivating, you saw lightning flickering in the sky.] [You knew that Heavenly Thunder was descending.] [One of the bolts of Heavenly Thunder locked onto you, just as it was about to strike.] [You felt the jade talisman from the Immortal Arrival Sect on you flickering with red light.][The Heavenly Thunder seemed to sense something and immediately dissipated.] [Clearly, your n seeded. After joining the Immortal Arrival Sect, you truly escaped the danger of Heavenly Thunder.] [You took out the jade talisman from the Immortal Arrival Sect and began to study it.] [You wondered if this thing could be duplicated.] [Or perhaps, could you steal the jade talismans from other Immortal ves to deceive the Heavenly Thunder?] [Soon, you shook your head, thinking it impossible.] [The danger of Heavenly Thunder has existed for countless years.] [If duplicating the jade talismans of Immortal ves or stealing them worked, many predecessors would have thought of it.] [Old Li from Spine Mountain is clearly stronger than Shen Wuyou. If stealing worked, the local cultivators in the Southern Regions wouldn''t be so miserable.] [Perhaps some predecessors had already experimented with this, and since it didn''t work, Old Li and the others didn''t pursue it.] [Thinking of this, you stopped studying the jade talisman from the Immortal Arrival Sect and continued cultivating.] [Time flew by, and decades passed in the blink of an eye.] [During these years, besides cultivating, you asionallypleted tasks for the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [Although thest Heavenly Thunder killed many cultivators in the Southern Regions, the region is vast and notcking in people seeking immortality.] [Some lucky ones even obtained some immortal scriptures and stepped onto the path of immortality.] [However, without ces like Spine Mountain and the protection of local cultivation experts like Old Li, those who stepped onto the path of cultivation found it hard to grow.] [They were often killed by Immortal ves like you just as they started.] [It''s worth mentioning that over these years, you have been promoted to a Protector Disciple of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [In fact, if it weren''t for yourck of strength, your contributions would have already qualified you for an elder position.] [After all, none of the Immortal ves in the Immortal Arrival Sect are as dedicated as you.] [Others kill seekers of immortality when they encounter them.] [But for you, everyone you meet is a seeker of immortality.] [With such an approach, who couldpete with your performance?] [After being promoted to a Protector Disciple, you could ess some of the Immortal Arrival Sect''s records.] [In these records, you found that the Immortal Arrival Sect has been established for nearly a million years.] [As for other information, there were some, such as Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya, who were described as viins and anti-immortals ording to the Immortal Arrival Sect''s records.] [After reading through it all, you didn''t gain much. Most of it was information you already knew, and the records were subjective, from the perspective of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [However, you were not discouraged. You thought that if a Protector Disciple could ess this information, which you thought would take multiple simtions to understand.] [If you were to be promoted again to a higher position, wouldn''t you gain more detailed and deeper information?] [So, you began to cultivate even more diligently, as strength was the mostcking for your promotion.] [In the 102nd year, your martial cultivation sessfully broke through to the peak of the Unity Realm.] [At this time, both your immortal and martial cultivation were at their peak, and you were on the verge of breaking through to a higher realm.] [This breakthrough took you half a year.] [Finally, you broke through both martial and immortal cultivation, reaching the Golden Body Realm in martial cultivation and the Void Refinement Realm in immortal cultivation.] [Simrly, your Nascent Soul underwent a transformation, bing golden and radiant.] [You were already used to this, as every time it was different from other cultivators, and you didn''t pay much attention to it.] [In the 110th year, just after breaking through to the second level of the Golden Body Realm, you suddenly saw lightning flickering in the distant sky.] [You thought it was Heavenly Thunder again and didn''t pay much attention.] [After all, you were now a member of the Immortal Arrival Sect and wouldn''t be affected.] [But soon, your expression changed.] [Because you saw a figure in a green robe amidst the distant lightning.] [You saw him standing in the void, facing the lightning head-on.] [You instantly understood that this was not Heavenly Thunder, but a tribtion for bing an immortal!] [But you found that the figure in the green robe looked extremely familiar.] [A terrifying thought emerged in your mind, and you thought that person might be your father, Jiang Fushan.] [Familiar, fond of wearing a green robe, and possessing the potential to be an immortal, it was too coincidental, perfectly fitting your father Jiang Fushan''s identity.] [After a long time, the tribtion dissipated, and you could roughly see the appearance of the figure in the green robe. It was indeed your father, Jiang Fushan!] [Even with your Absolute Rationality, you found it hard to remain calm.] [You couldn''t understand it at all. Didn''t your father lose to the Demonic Dragon back then?] [Could it be that your father didn''t die at that time?] [But even so, how did he survive the subsequent Heavenly Thunder?] [A thousand questions filled your mind!] [But before you could think more, you saw the sky suddenly darken.] [A giant hand that covered the sky descended from above.] [The entire Southern Regions copsedpletely, and no one survived.] [You died at the age of 130.] [This simtion ends.] [You can choose two rewards from this simtion: Absolute Rationality (Talent), Divine Dao Cultivation, Eighth-Grade Formation Master, Immortal Dao inheritance, Immortal Arrival Sect jade talisman.] [Absolute Rationality (Talent)]: Price 1 million Energy Value. [Divine Dao Cultivation]: Price 1 billion Energy Value; includes Martial Dao Cultivation (second level of Golden Body Realm) and Immortal Dao Cultivation (first level of Void Refinement Realm). [Eighth-Grade Formation Master]: Price 2 billion Energy Value. [Immortal Dao inheritance]: Price 1 trillion Energy Value; includes the immortal-level technique "Devouring Spirit Art" and arge amount of Immortal Dao information and techniques.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [Immortal Arrival Sect jade talisman]: Price 100 Energy Value; note: an unrecognized and unregistered jade talisman, can serve as a nice decorative item but has no other function. Chapter 82: Energy Value is critical, reality takes action Looking at the end prompt from the simtor, Jiang Yifeng was a bit stunned. He had originally thought that this simtion wouldst much longer! After all, he had joined the Immortal Arrival Sect and managed to avoid the most dangerous Heavenly Thunder. But this ended way too abruptly! However, this simtion had indeed brought many new questions to Jiang Yifeng. But right now, he wasn¡¯t thinking about those.N?v(el)B\\jnn Instead, he focused on the simtion rewards. This time, the rewards were indeed quite good. However, the eighth-grade Formation Master could be eliminated first.Jiang Yifeng already possessed the theoretical knowledge of an eighth-grade Formation Master. The only reason he couldn¡¯t set up an eighth-grade formation was due to insufficient spiritual energy. As long as his cultivation improved, he believed he could immediately be an eighth-grade Formation Master in reality. As for thest reward, the Immortal Arrival Sect jade talisman. Seeing this reward, Jiang Yifeng just let out a coldugh. This simtor really didn¡¯t leave any loopholes! A mere decoration, naturally, he didn¡¯t need it. In the end, it came down to Absolute Rationality (Talent), Divine Dao Cultivation, and Immortal Dao inheritance. Among these three, Divine Dao Cultivation was a must for Jiang Yifeng. After all, strength was the foundation of everything, and this simtion had significantly boosted his strength. Next was the choice between Immortal Dao inheritance and Absolute Rationality (Talent). In fact, Jiang Yifeng was more inclined to exchange for the Absolute Rationality talent. As for the Immortal Dao inheritance, he could get it in the next simtion! Moreover, he thought he might be able to obtain it through a deep simtion. Judging by this simtion, the Immortal Dao inheritance seemed to be a kind of memory, and there was a high probability of obtaining it through a deep simtion. This could also save a lot of energy value. As for why there was no deep simtion this time, Jiang Yifeng thought it was probably because his simted self hadn¡¯t confirmed what the inheritance was, so it didn¡¯t do it. Therefore, choosing Absolute Rationality was the most cost-effective option. However, Jiang Yifeng was a bit worried about its side effects. The side effects were too cold and ruthless, and he couldn¡¯t ept that. Although the simtor had a talent pool. But that required putting his own talents into the talent pool. This meant Absolute Rationality would still appear on him for a while. Jiang Yifeng was worried that after exchanging, he might be immediately affected by Absolute Rationality and not put the talent into the pool. What would he do then? Perhaps sensing Jiang Yifeng¡¯s concern, the simtor¡¯s electronic voice timely sounded. [Ding, reminding the host, you can directly put the exchanged talent into the talent pool by paying an additional 1 billion energy value.] ¡°WTF, taking advantage of the situation!¡± Hearing the simtor¡¯s electronic voice, Jiang Yifeng couldn¡¯t help but curse. He suddenly felt that this simtor was really money-hungry. But despite the cursing, since the simtor could directly put the talent into the talent pool, it indeed solved Jiang Yifeng¡¯s dilemma. So Jiang Yifeng no longer hesitated. He made his choice for the simtion reward and softly muttered. ¡°Simtor, exchange Absolute Rationality (Talent) and put it into the talent pool.¡± [Ding, Absolute Rationality (Talent) has been ced into the talent pool, deducting 1 billion 100 million energy value, remaining energy value 8 billion¡­] After exchanging Absolute Rationality into the talent pool, Jiang Yifeng didn¡¯t immediately make a second choice. Because the Divine Dao Cultivation he intended to exchange for, although much cheaper than the Immortal Dao inheritance, still required 10 billion energy value. And he currently only had over 8 billion energy value left, which wasn¡¯t enough. Fortunately, the simtor didn¡¯t require immediate exchange; he could do it anytime before the next simtion. Jiang Yifeng still had a few days to gather the energy value. So, he immediately went to find the butler, Jiang Dafu, hoping to gather arge amount of gold, silver, jewels, and tens of thousands of tons of ore within seven days. Unfortunately, Jiang Yifeng was disappointed. Butler Jiang Dafu didn¡¯t directly agree to his request. Instead, he informed Jiang Yifeng that most of the nearby mined ores had already been purchased earlier. They were still being urgently mined, and there wasn¡¯t much stock left. As for gold, silver, and jewels, it was simr; they had already been mostly purchased from the surrounding cities under Jiang Yifeng¡¯s orders. Others didn¡¯t have much surplus either. In the end, Jiang Yifeng didn¡¯t make things difficult for the butler and returned to his courtyard in low spirits. He knew he had indeed consumed a lot recently; he also understood the butler¡¯s difficulties. There was no point in forcing it if there was no stock in the market. Back in his room, Jiang Yifengy on his soft bed, muttering to himself. ¡°What should I do?¡± ¡°Should I take the risk to get energy value myself?¡± Actually, Jiang Yifeng understood that if he was willing to take a slight risk of exposing his identity as a cultivator, energy value wouldn¡¯t be a problem for him. After all, the simtor wasn¡¯t picky. For example, even the mountains, flowers, and trees outside could be exchanged for energy value, although the amount was low. But if the quantity wasrge, it would still be a considerable amount of energy value. Jiang Yifeng was just worried that causing too muchmotion might expose him to the Immortal Arrival Sect¡¯s Immortal ves. Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng sat up from the bed and shouted. ¡°Damn it, just do it! What¡¯s there to fear from mere Immortal ves!¡± He would never admit that he was out of options and forced to decide to gather energy himself. Ready to act? No, Jiang Yifeng thought that although he wasn¡¯t afraid of Immortal ves, he still needed to prepare. For example, the Child of Fortune talent? Better put it into the talent pool first; otherwise, it would surely bring a lot of trouble. After that, Jiang Yifeng spent several days carving something on jade stones. On the fourth day, he looked at the dozens of Teleportation Jade tes in his hand, satisfied. Indeed, with Jiang Yifeng¡¯s current level as a Formation Master, he could already carve Teleportation Jade tes himself. He just hadn¡¯t done it in reality before. Although the Teleportation Jade tes could only teleport a thousand miles, it was still faster than his current flying speed, and being random teleportation, it was harder for others to track his location. Since he was going to cause somemotion in reality, he thought it was better to prepare more Teleportation Jade tes for safety. After finishing the Teleportation Jade tes, Jiang Yifeng sneaked out of Green Hills City that night. Three dayster, two thousand kilometers away from Green Hills City, Bright Moon City was in an uproar. The residents there all suspected they were dreaming. The city had been surrounded by mountains, so why was it now a t in? The Immortal ves stationed in Bright Moon City by the Immortal Arrival Sect immediately reported the matter to their superiors. As for Jiang Yifeng? He had already returned to the Jiang Family Mansion. Three days ago, after leaving Green Hills City, Jiang Yifeng headed towards Bright Moon City. During his preparations, he had learned that Bright Moon City had the most mountains, and they were uninhabited, with some abandoned mines. It was simply the best ce for him to gather energy value. Chapter 83: Simulator upgrade 5.0, Jiang Yifeng exclaimed about the dark secrets Converting the mountains into energy values went much smoother than Jiang Yifeng had imagined. The simtor converted all the mountains, flowers, and nts outside Bright Moon City into energy values without causing anymotion, as if they had vanished into thin air! No one noticed, making the teleportation jade tes Jiang Yifeng had preparedpletely unnecessary. Jiang Yifeng didn''t mind; the less they were needed, the better¡ªit meant he was not in danger. Nomotion, no discovery¡ªthis was exactly what he wanted!n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om This operation also boosted Jiang Yifeng''s confidence. He felt that it would be hard to run out of energy values in the future, as long as using the simtor to convert them didn''t cause much noise. asionally using his cultivation to travel, as long as he wasn''t too unlucky, the risk was quite low. At this moment, Jiang Yifeng''s energy value had reached an all-time high of over 120 billion!In fact, just a few mountains wouldn''t be worth that much energy value. But Jiang Yifeng was lucky; in those mountains outside Bright Moon City, there were still many remnants in the abandoned mines. This was how his energy value reached over 120 billion. In his room, Jiang Yifeng immediately chose to redeem the simtion rewards he hadn''t imedst time! "Redeem Divine Dao Cultivation!" [Ding, Divine Dao Cultivation redeemed sessfully, 10 billion energy values deducted, remaining energy value 119 billion¡­] A few secondster, Jiang Yifeng clearly felt his cultivation improve. Just as he was immersed in the joy of his cultivation breakthrough, the simtor''s electronic voice sounded again. [Ding, detected that the host has met the conditions for upgrading the simtor. Would the host like to spend 100 billion energy values toplete the upgrade?] "¡­" Hearing that it would cost 100 billion energy values to upgrade, Jiang Yifeng''s face turned dark. He had just risked exposure to earn these energy values, and now the simtor was eyeing them again. Annoyed as he was, the simtor still needed to be upgraded. Jiang Yifeng knew that every upgrade of the simtor would bring significant improvements. "Upgrade the simtor!" [Ding, simtor upgraded to version 5.0, 100 billion energy values deducted, remaining energy value 19 billion¡­] [Setting Modification 1: Energy values will be converted to higher-level origin values, with the original energy values converted at a ratio of 10,000 to 1!] [Setting Modification 2: The host will receive an additional random one-time talent or ability at the start of each simtion; note: it cannot be redeemed at the end of the simtion.] [Setting Modification 3: The origin values required to redeem rewards after the simtion will be significantly reduced.] [Note: Origin values cannot be exchanged for ordinary mundane items; (please host, stop harming flowers and nts).] [Note: Detected remaining energy value of 119 billion, converted to 1.19 million origin values.] Seeing the setting modifications after the simtor upgrade, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but shout, "This is a scam!" Jiang Yifeng felt he had been tricked by the simtor. Was this really an upgrade? He suspected the simtor was suppressing him. He had just tried convertingrge quantities of mountains into energy values, and now, after the upgrade, it was no longer possible. Wasn''t this a disguised downgrade? "Simtor,e out and give me an exnation." Jiang Yifeng questioned the simtor. [Ding: The host has passed the novice period, and the simtor has retracted the novice benefits, which is very reasonable; please host, stop shouting!] Afterwards, Jiang Yifeng raised multiple objections. Unfortunately, it was useless; the simtor refused to respond. In the end, Jiang Yifeng could only ept it. He could only hope that the one-time talent or ability from this upgrade would be powerful. If not, this simtor upgrade would be a huge loss. "Sigh!" Jiang Yifeng sighed and stopped dwelling on the issues brought by the simtor upgrade. The event had already happened, and he was powerless to change it! At this moment, there was still some time before the simtion count refreshed. Jiang Yifeng began to think about what to do in the simtion. He felt that improving his strength was a constant goal, something he must do in every simtion. But besides that, Jiang Yifeng thought he should also use the simtions to uncover the mysteries that had been piling up in his heart. After nearly half a year of simtions, Jiang Yifeng had umted a lot of questions. What secrets did his father have that allowed him to cultivate so quickly? The Immortal Arrival Sect, established nearly a million years ago, was Shen Wuyou really the strongest with a Tribtion Crossing of the fifth level? Or were there stronger individuals hidden? The fierce beasts guarding the sealing formation, from previous simtions, it seemed the White Tiger and Mystic Turtle were not there voluntarily. Were the Demonic Dragon and Demonic Phoenix there willingly? Was there any connection between these fierce beasts? And who was the giant hand that covered the sky when his father ascended to immortality? The Mystic Turtle said the sealednd was ayout by various powerful beings from the Immortal Realm, and they wouldn''t act personally. Why did the giant hand suddenly appear? Was it because his father ascended to immortality and broke the bnce? Or would anyone in the Southern Regions who ascended to immortality break this bnce? Was it targeting everyone in the Southern Regions, or just his father? And since ascending to immortality would be attacked by the giant hand, did the predecessors Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya from hundreds of thousands of years ago really escape? Or had they already fallen? ¡­ Several questions swirled in Jiang Yifeng''s mind, waiting for him to unravel them one by one. [Ding: Simtion count refreshed!] Jiang Yifeng stopped his thoughts. He didn''t hesitate and silentlymanded. "Start simtion!" [Simtion count consumed: 1, remaining count: 0] [Drawing purple talent consumes 100 origin values, drawing orange talent with a chance consumes 1000 origin values, please choose!] "Choose to draw orange talent with a chance." [Ding, 1000 origin values deducted, talent randomly drawing, remaining 1.19 million origin values¡­] [Congrattions to the host for obtaining the orange talent: Late Bloomer.] [Late Bloomer]: The older you get, the faster your cultivation speed. (Note: Starting from age 100, your cultivation speed doubles every 10 years, up to a maximum of 10 times.) [Ding, obtained one-time talent: Wicked Navigation.] [Wicked Navigation]: It will lead you to the most dangerous ces! (Note: Passive talent, no need for active use, hence no one-time use limit, but cannot be redeemed.) [Prompt: Would you like to carry one of the talents from the talent pool?] Jiang Yifeng looked at the talents he had obtained. He felt they were quite good. Late Bloomer was clearly an excellent cultivation talent, though it started from age 100. He was only 20 years old now, so it would be the 80th year of the simtion before it took effect. With this in mind, he would still need to join the Immortal Arrival Sect in this simtion. As for Wicked Navigation, it was actually not bad. Although it led to the most dangerous ces, as long as he didn''t follow its route, he could avoid the most dangerous paths. Since this simtion required joining the Immortal Arrival Sect again, Jiang Yifeng didn''t hesitate and chose to retrieve Absolute Rationality (Talent) from the talent pool. [Ding: The host has obtained Absolute Rationality (Talent) from the talent pool.] Afterpleting everything, Jiang Yifeng looked at the simtor. [The 23rd simtion begins!] Chapter 84: The Danger of Green Hills City [You realize you have entered the simtion.] [On the first day, with your Absolute Rationality, you didn''t take immediate action but fell into deep thought.] [In this simtion, you don''t have the Child of Fortune talent. You''re pondering how to obtain the inheritance.] [Without the inheritance, your cultivation level would be impossible to exin if Qiu Zhixuan''s grandfather, Qiu Kuang, saw it!] [This makes it much harder for you to join the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [Moreover, in reality, the disappearance of the mountains outside Bright Moon City will surely prompt the Immortal ves to investigate, making them more vignt towards local cultivators!] [It might even lead to increased patrols in nearby cities.] [Although Green Hills City is 2000 kilometers away from Bright Moon City, you feel it might not be safe.] [After analyzing the current situation, you curse yourself outside the simtor: "Idiot."]n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//omIn reality, Jiang Yifeng''s face didn''t look too good as he read this. Damn it, this Absolute Rationality is a trap, always cursing at me. Don''t I know it''s not safe? Of course, I know! But at that time, I was seriously low on Energy Value; what else could I do? For safety, Jiang Yifeng deliberately traveled over 2000 kilometers to Bright Moon City. Otherwise, he could have just exchanged Energy Value outside Green Hills City; there are plenty of mountains there too. As for going even further, Jiang Yifeng had considered it, but it would take too long, and he was afraid he wouldn''t make it back in time for the simtion. Moreover, traveling too far using his cultivation would also increase the danger. He had never traveled far in reality, and many ces were unfamiliar to him. Plus, Immortal ves were stationed in every city. If he went too far, the chances of encountering an Immortal ve expert would rise sharply. If they saw through him as a cultivator, he''d be done for! As for not choosing the Child of Fortune talent for this simtion, wasn''t it because he believed Absolute Rationality was strong enough? Jiang Yifeng felt extremely aggrieved but had no choice but to continue watching the simtion''s progress. [On the second day, you left the Jiang Family Mansion and tested the one-time talent Wicked Navigation.] [You discovered that this talent is quite interesting and stronger than you imagined.] [It works like a real navigation system, showing multiple routes in your mind.] [These routes change based on your location.] [Each route varies in shade but is all red.] [You deduce that this might represent different levels of danger.] [It''s a good tool for avoiding danger, but you think it has a distance limit.] [Because if there were no distance limit, there should be more routes, given that many ces in the Southern Regions are dangerous to you.] [ording to Wicked Navigation, the most dangerous ce for you now is towards Bright Moon City.] [You understand that this is the consequence of making the mountains outside Bright Moon City disappear in reality.] [The Immortal ves must be conducting a massive search in the direction of Bright Moon City.] [Since there are Immortal ves investigating Bright Moon City, you think it won''t be long before many Immortal vese to Green Hills City, which is only 2000 kilometers away.] [With your Absolute Rationality, your first thought is to leave Green Hills City and hide for a while.] [After all, a wise man does not stand under a dangerous wall. But soon, you abandon this decision.] [You know you''re in a simtion. If you only think about safety now and leave Green Hills City, your real self won''t be able to ensure future safety.] [Ultimately, you decide to set an example of self-rescue for the "idiot" in reality!] [On the third day, you leave Green Hills City.] [On the fourth day, with your cultivation level increased again, you appear in the mountains thousands of miles north of Green Hills City, setting up a teleportation formation and a self-destruct formation.] [On the fifth day, you continue north, setting up a teleportation formation and a self-destruct formation every few thousand miles.] ... [A monthter, your setup isplete.] [You step into the teleportation formation and immediately activate the self-destruct formation, starting to blow up mountains.] [Your n is simple: since the Immortal ves are focusing on the area around Bright Moon City, and Green Hills City is under close watch because of its proximity, you will muddy the waters, causingrge-scale events throughout the Southern Regions.] [As an eighth-grade Formation Master, this is not difficult for you.] [You just need to set up fixed-point teleportation formations in advance, then arge-scale self-destruct formation can do the job.] [As soon as you step into the teleportation formation, you activate the self-destruct formation.] [You can leave quickly without anyone noticing traces of the teleportation formation.] [Two dayster, you safely return to Green Hills City.] [Upon your return, you notice many unfamiliar Immortal ves wandering around Green Hills City.] [Fortunately, with Wicked Navigation, you avoid danger and do not encounter any Immortal ve experts.] [Soon, the events you triggered by blowing up the mountains begin to spread throughout the Southern Regions.] [The Immortal ves in Green Hills City start to leave, going to investigate the "good deeds" you did over the past month.] [By the second month, the Immortal ves in Green Hills City have almostpletely withdrawn, leaving only those like Qiu Zhixuan who were originally stationed there.] [In the third month, you begin pursuing Qiu Zhixuan.] ... [In the first year, Qiu Zhixuan develops a good impression of you but does not agree to date you.] [You are not discouraged and continue your efforts, using various dating tricks from the 21st century to win her over.] [In the third year, Qiu Zhixuan finally falls for you!] [In the seventh year, you and Qiu Zhixuan have a "love" child.] [In the eighth year, the baby is born, and you name him Jiang Nianqiu, moving Qiu Zhixuan to tears.] [In the same year, you pretend to have gained an opportunity and invite Qiu Zhixuan to cultivate with you.] [Qiu Zhixuan, feeling guilty, confesses her identity to you.] [Your exceptional cultivation talent makes Qiu Zhixuan feel inferior.] [Because of this, you take even better care of her, even giving up cultivation.] [In this simtion, you know you need Qiu Zhixuan''s protection, so you take extra care of her.] [In the ninth year, Qiu Zhixuan urges you to cultivate, saying that only by bing stronger can you better protect her. You pretend to agree and make a solemn promise!] [In the twelfth year, your father is to be sent on a mission to the Liang Kingdom, and you know the cultivation inheritance is about to appear.] [So, you take Qiu Zhixuan and travel with your father.] [Your father, Jiang Fushan, does not object to this.] [In the thirteenth year, on the way back from the Liang Kingdom, the ground shakes, and a fissure appears.] Chapter 85: Deep simulation, passed down to hand [Seeing the situation, you promptly stepped in, "thoughtfully" saving everyone and informing your father of the danger, urging him to leave quickly!] [Your father, Jiang Fushan, was astonished to see you use such divine methods to save everyone.] [However, he did not doubt you. Seeing your abilities, he felt nothing but immense pride!] [Your father, Jiang Fushan, trusted your wordspletely, redirected the caravan, and instructed you not to take any risks.] [After your father, Jiang Fushan, left, you and Qiu Zhixuan jumped into the crack in the ground, entering the Hall of Inheritance.] [The Immortal Dao inheritance light orb sensed someone entering and swayed as if discerning something.] [But after a long while, it remained still.] [You knew it was likely because you were not the Child of Fortune, and thus, the Immortal Dao inheritance did not choose you.] [But does that matter? The inheritance is right in front of you. You think that if it didn''t choose you, you choosing it should be the same.][You didn''t approach the Immortal Dao inheritance directly but instead, with a look of excitement, told Qiu Zhixuan that this might be some kind of inheritance and urged her to try and see if she could obtain it.] [In truth, you thought that if she really wanted the inheritance, you would have no choice but to destroy the flower and abandon your ns to join the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [But if Qiu Zhixuan refused, your suggestion would also earn you some favor in her eyes!] [Qiu Zhixuan''s choice did not disappoint you. She looked at you tenderly, shook her head, and told you to take this opportunity.] [After some back and forth, you reluctantly walked towards the inheritance light orb.] [Standing before the inheritance light orb, you shouted in your heart: Come in!] In reality, Jiang Yifeng did not hesitate this time either. He silentlymanded: "Start deep simtion for ten days!" Actually, Jiang Yifeng remembered that epting this inheritance didn''t require ten days. But this time, since he wasn''t chosen by the inheritance, he wasn''t sure if it would take longer, so he decided to extend the deep simtion time just in case, as he could exit at any time. [Ding, starting deep simtion for ten days, consuming 240 origin values.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om Seeing the simtion prompt, Jiang Yifeng instantly understood that energy values were indeed canceled, and now deep simtion also used origin values. However, after calcting the cost, it was still the same. As the simtor''s final sound fell, Jiang Yifeng instantly appeared in the simtion. Seeing the ancient hall. Without much thought, Jiang Yifeng directly grabbed the inheritance light orb. At this moment, a deep voice echoed in Jiang Yifeng''s ear. "Young man, this inheritance is not yours!" Jiang Yifeng understood that this should be the consciousness within the inheritance, which was about to dissipate. But he knew that this consciousness was like a toothless tiger, all show and no strength. So Jiang Yifeng wasn''t worried at all and had no intention of giving up this Immortal Dao inheritance! However, the consciousness seemed to influence the inheritance, and Jiang Yifeng did not immediately receive the inheritance memories. For a moment, he and the inheritance were in a stalemate. After a long while. Jiang Yifeng said, "Senior, although I may not be the one you chose, I will only be stronger than the one you chose!" As soon as he finished speaking, a disdainful voice came from the inheritance. "Hah, ignorant child, the one I chose is blessed with the fortune of heaven and earth and possesses a unique innate Dao body. What makes you think you''re stronger?" Hearing this, Jiang Yifeng''s eyes brightened. He thought to himself: So my father, Jiang Fushan, has an innate Dao body and is blessed with the fortune of heaven and earth, making him a Child of Fortune. No wonder he cultivates so quickly. However, now was clearly not the time to think about this. Jiang Yifeng directly retorted to the consciousness within the inheritance. "Talent is indeed a bonus in cultivation, but absolute will is the key to reaching the pinnacle. And coincidentally, I have the will to reach the pinnacle." Jiang Yifeng spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly. In fact, he wasn''t wrong. With Absolute Rationality, he indeed had the will to reach the pinnacle. But this will was not just about perseverance and Dao heart; it was somewhat sinister. Jiang Yifeng''s words made the consciousness within the inheritance fall silent. After a long while! Jiang Yifeng suddenly felt a splitting headache as a flood of inheritance memories poured into his mind. Soon, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. As time passed, Jiang Yifeng even began to bleed from his seven orifices. Jiang Yifeng didn''t expect the inheritance to be so fierce. The massive amount of memories could directly harm his soul and even his physical body. But he didn''t know that this was actually intentional by the consciousness within the inheritance. Originally, the consciousness within the inheritance existed to help the inheritor slowly ept the inheritance memories, inputting them bit by bit. But now, Jiang Yifeng boasted about having the will to reach the pinnacle, so the consciousness wanted to see just how strong his will was. If Jiang Yifeng could withstand the impact of the massive memories, then giving him the inheritance wouldn''t be a loss. But if he couldn''t withstand it and died? Or went mad? Then it would be his own fault. Of course, Jiang Yifeng didn''t know that even if he hadn''t boasted, the inheritance would still have chosen him in the end. After all, he had tricked Jiang Fushan into leaving, and the consciousness within the inheritance was about to dissipate and had been entangled with him for a long time. The key was that Jiang Yifeng kept holding onto the inheritance, which only weakened the consciousness within it, making it unlikely for the inheritance to hide and reappear a second time. So the inheritance would still end up in Jiang Yifeng''s hands. Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and Jiang Yifeng slowly revealed his strength while struggling to ept the Immortal Dao inheritance. This also justified his high cultivation level. If it weren''t for Absolute Rationality, he might have gone mad long ago and wouldn''t have been able to consider this. On this day, Yang Zuo appeared. Qiu Zhixuan promptly blocked Yang Zuo and used a sound transmission talisman to call her grandfather, Qiu Kuang, for help. Soon, Qiu Kuang appeared, understood the situation, and directly pped Yang Zuo to death. Another three days passed before Jiang Yifengpletely absorbed the inheritance. At this point, only six days had passed in the deep simtion, but Jiang Yifeng did not end the deep simtion. With Absolute Rationality, he decided to use the remaining time in the deep simtion to understand the situation, which was a good thing. On the tenth day, the deep simtion ended. Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness returned to reality. He rubbed his slightly sore head. This deep simtion not only allowed him to obtain the inheritance but also gave him time to learn the location of the Immortal Arrival Sect''s branch. Although it didn''t seem useful at the moment. But when he became stronger, it would be convenient to destroy them. Not bad at all. So, Jiang Yifeng continued to look at the simtor. Chapter 86: Greatly contrary to Dao [You rubbed your head, roughly understanding that the deep simtion had ended.] [However, you have no memory of the deep simtion.] [Instinctively, you observe your surroundings and find yourself in a luxurious manor.] [Just as you were about to investigate the situation, you notice a notebook in your hand.] [Frowning, you open the notebook and, to your delight, praise yourself: Well done!] In reality, Jiang Yifeng''s lips curled up slightly. Weren''t they calling me a fool? Heh, I''m quite clever. Knowing that memories from the deep simtion wouldn''t carry over, he had recorded recent events in the notebook.He even copied the "Devouring Spirit Art" from the inheritance. This was to make it easier for his simted self to actter on. For a moment, Jiang Yifeng felt a bit smug. However, whether intentionally or not, he seemed to forget that during the deep simtion, he also had the talent of Absolute Rationality. Was this really his own achievement? Or was it the effect of Absolute Rationality? [After reading the notebook, you understand your current situation. Everything is going ording to n, and you have been brought back to the Immortal Arrival Sect by Qiu Kuang.] [In the following days, you continue to nurture your rtionship with Qiu Zhixuan.] [Six monthster, you are notified to participate in the Immortal Arrival Sect''s assessment.] [Unsurprisingly, you pass smoothly and officially join the Immortal Arrival Sect, receiving the sect''s jade talisman.]n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [Afterwards, you go on a spree, killing hundreds of local cultivators, umting over a hundred years'' worth of task points, and then leave with Qiu Zhixuan.] [As for your son, Jiang Lianqiu, you leave him in the care of Qiu Kuang.] [In the fourteenth year, you return to Green Hills City.] [You know that in thest simtion, your father embarked on the path of the Immortal Dao even after losing the Immortal Dao inheritance.] [Although the notebook from this deep simtion mentions that your father has an innate Dao body and is blessed with fortune, you still doubt he could step into the Immortal Dao without a cultivation method.] [You want to see what happened to your father after losing the Immortal Dao inheritance.] [In the fifteenth year, one night while you are cultivating, you suddenly sense something.] [You look up at the sky and see a ball of light heading towards your father Jiang Fushan''s room.] [You are stunned, as the light ball looks simr to the inheritance you received before!] [Could it be another inheritance?] [You leap up to intercept it, wanting to find out what it is.] [But you overestimate yourself and underestimate the speed of the light ball.] [In an instant, the light ball has already entered your father Jiang Fushan''s room and merged with him.] [You fail to intercept it.] [At this moment, your father Jiang Fushan is still asleep, seemingly unaware of what has happened.] [Seeing this, you are filled with emotion. Your father truly is a child of fortune, gaining opportunities even in his sleep.] [This surpasses your previous talent as a Child of Fortune!] [Of course, this is just your spection. After all, you also used the Child of Fortune talent to gain an inheritance before.] [However, you always felt that your Child of Fortune talent was like a wed version, sometimes working and sometimes not. It was good for finding resources, but in other aspects, it didn''t seem like a true Child of Fortune.] [Thinking carefully, it seems that every talent given by the simtor has some issues, as if they are all wed versions.] [You shake your head, stop thinking about these issues, and focus on your father Jiang Fushan.] [You stare at your sleeping father, a hint of killing intent in your eyes.] [After a long silence, you abandon your thoughts and decide to wait until your father Jiang Fushan wakes up.] [Three days pass in the blink of an eye, and your father Jiang Fushan finally emerges from his room.] [As soon as hees out, he finds you.] [He tells you about the inheritance he received and mentions that the Southern Regions are a sealednd.] [After listening to your father''s ount, you realize that the inheritance he received is exactly the same as the one you received before!] [Both are a cultivation technique called "Devouring Spirit Art" along with some information and spells.] [This makes you ponder deeply.] [Is it that the inheritance left more than one copy?] [Or is it not an inheritance at all?] [Is the inheritance really left by a deceased person? Is what the consciousness in the inheritance said true?] [This makes you doubt.] [After all, two identical inheritances seem too suspicious!] [You look up at the sky and sigh inwardly. Could this so-called inheritance be a cultivation method thrown down by those in the heavens for their pawns?] [And the information about the Southern Regions being a sealednd is just a stimulus to make the pawns strive harder in cultivation?] [Thinking of this, your heart skips a beat.] [If this is true, doesn''t it mean that by intercepting the inheritance, you have also be a pawn of those in the heavens?] [It''s even possible that those powerful beings are watching you at all times?] [With this in mind, you grin and walk towards your father Jiang Fushan, shattering his Qi Sea with a single palm strike.] [Your father Jiang Fushan spits out a mouthful of blood, looking at you with a face full of confusion, without any resentment, only bewilderment.] At this moment, Jiang Yifeng in reality was stunned. His simted self actually did such a thing. This was too much. Although it was just a text simtion, Jiang Yifeng felt that using others was one thing, but actually harming his own father was something he couldn''t ept. Isn''t there a saying, "A flower is a world"? Jiang Yifeng didn''t know if this text simtion counted as a world, but what if it did? Wouldn''t that mean he became the person he despised in that world? Jiang Yifeng decided that unless he was in a life-or-death situation, he wouldn''t use the Absolute Rationality talent in future simtions. Even if it meant simting more times and wasting some time. After all, time was still on his side, and the real crisis wasn''t imminent. He couldn''t sacrifice his humanity just to gain power and uncover the truth! Suppressing his difort, Jiang Yifeng continued to look at the simtor. [You look at your father Jiang Fushan, whose Qi Sea is now destroyed, and exin that not cultivating is the best choice.] [You don''t kill him, wanting to see what happens next.] [If you are indeed a pawn of those powerful beings, what would they do if this pawn is crippled?] [Of course, you understand that if your guess is correct, what you did is very dangerous.] [But you believe that the truth is more important to you than the danger!] Chapter 87: Finding the situation increasingly interesting! [In the sixteenth year, your cultivation level in the Immortal Dao has reached the fourth tier of Void Refinement.] [Over the years, although you haven''t been inplete seclusion, you have still been cultivating the Immortal Dao during your free time, so your progress has been steady.] [At this moment, it has been a year since you abolished your father Jiang Fushan''s Qi Sea.] [Your father has spent most of this year recovering from his injuries.] [He doesn''t resent you; in fact, he believes you were protecting him.] [This makes you feel a bit guilty, but with your Absolute Rationality, you quickly suppress these emotions.] [In the seventeenth year, your father fully recovers and resumes his business activities, as if nothing else had happened.] [In the eighteenth year, your father finds you and tells you that his Qi Sea has miraculously healed itself, allowing him to cultivate again.] [Looking at your naive father, you decisively abolish his Qi Sea once more.][After that, you stick closely to your father Jiang Fushan.] [Your father thinks you are protecting him.] [Little does he know, you just want to see how his Qi Sea keeps recovering.] [In the twentieth year, your cultivation level in the Immortal Dao breaks through to the fifth tier of Void Refinement.] [In the same year, you discover that your father''s Qi Sea has healed again.] [As for how it healed, you can''t quite figure it out at the moment.] [It seems there was no external intervention; it appears to be a matter of his constitution!] [You can''t help but think that this might be an innate ability of his Dao physique.] [In this light, your father''s physique is truly extraordinary, a gift from the heavens.] [Unfortunately, your father has you, such a "filial" son, so no matter how high his talent, it is of no use.] [Because at this moment, you have developed a killing intent.] [You think that since you''ve almost figured it out, perhaps letting your father die peacefully is the best choice.] [This way, he won''t be an immortal, and that giant hand that covers the sky won''t appear, allowing you more time to simte.] [Just as your killing intent arises, you suddenly feel a sense of dread, and cold sweat drips from your forehead.] [You understand that you have been targeted by a master, one so powerful that you have no chance of resisting!] [Otherwise, this situation wouldn''t have urred.] [At this moment, you hear a cold voice in your ear.] [You don''t know who the speaker is, but you understand his meaning clearly. He warns you that if you dare to harm your father Jiang Fushan again, you won''t live.] [This instantly dissipates your newly arisen killing intent.] [You roughly understand that your deliberate actions against your father have forced the chess yer to intervene.] [But who exactly is this person warning you? Is it the one orchestrating from the heavens, or do they have other contingencies left in the Southern Regions?] [At this moment, you are almost certain that your father is a pawn ced by some great power in the Immortal Realm.] [You smile inwardly, finding the situation increasingly interesting!] [After that, you no longer make a move against your father but leave Green Hills City with Qiu Zhixuan.] [Since you can''t change things with your father, you have to find another way.] [However, before leaving Green Hills City, you tell your father not to cultivate unless absolutely necessary.] [You don''t know if your words will have any effect, but you believe that theter your father starts cultivating, the more time you will have to simte.] [After that, you return to the Immortal Arrival Sect with Qiu Zhixuan.] [In the twenty-first year, you frequently go out to kill local cultivators, earning significant merits in the Immortal Arrival Sect and being promoted to an elite disciple.] [In the twenty-second year, you continue to kill local cultivators and those "Seekers of Immortality" who encounter you!] [In the twenty-third year, your merits soar once again, and you are promoted to a Protector Disciple.] [In the twenty-fourth year, you begin to cultivate in seclusion.] [In previous years, although you cultivated, you didn''t spend much time on it daily.] [Now, with your full focus on cultivation, your speed has significantly increased!] [In the twenty-fifth year, you sessfully break through to the sixth tier of Void Refinement.] [In the twenty-seventh year, you trigger your talent, experiencing a Random Enlightenment, gaining nine times the cultivation speed, and your thoughts be more active.] [This enlightenmentsts for a full nine months, and you sessfully break through to the eighth tier of Void Refinement.] [In the thirty-third year, you reach the pinnacle of the Void Refinement Realm and begin to focus on Martial Dao.] [In the forty-first year, your Martial Dao breaks through to the third tier of the Golden Body Realm.] [Compared to the Immortal Dao, your progress in Martial Dao is noticeably slower, taking eight years to advance a small realm.] [In the forty-third year, the Immortal Arrival Sect issues a call to arms to intercept the people from Spine Mountain trying to enter the Desert of Death, and you participate!] [When you arrive at the Desert of Death, you find that the one fighting the Demonic Dragon is Old Li, and your father is not involved.] [Seeing this, you feel a sense of relief.] [You think that perhaps your father really listened to you and didn''t cultivate.] [But soon, a trace of doubt arises in your mind.] [Previously, when you wanted to make a move against your father, someone from the heavens intervened to stop you. So, will your father really never step onto the path of cultivation?] [You shake your head, thinking that even if your father listens to you and doesn''t want to cultivate, there will eventually be various coincidences that lead him to the path of cultivation.] [Thinking of this, you feel a renewed sense of urgency, believing that you must quickly improve your strength.] [Thus, you be even more ruthless towards the local cultivators.] [This time, in just half a day, the cultivators from Spine Mountain are almostpletely wiped out, with hardly anyone escaping.] [After all, Old Li''s strength can''t hold off the Demonic Dragon for long. With the Demonic Dragon personally taking action and you Immortal ves from the Immortal Arrival Sect, those ordinary local cultivators naturally find it hard to escape!] [After this operation, your outstanding performance is praised by Shen Wuyou, the sect master of the Immortal Arrival Sect, and you gain a massive amount of merits.] [Your merits are now enough to be promoted to an ordinary elder, but unfortunately, your strength is insufficient, so you haven''t truly be an elder.]n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om [You have already found out that the minimum requirement to be an elder in the Immortal Arrival Sect is not the Tribtion Crossing stage but the Great Ascension stage.] [Now, at the peak of Void Refinement, if you break through two more major realms, you can be an elder of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [You think that if you work hard, you might actually have a chance to reach that position in this simtion.] [So, you give up the path of stable cultivation.] [After exining things to Qiu Zhixuan, you head alone to the Valley of mes.] [You want to use the mes of the Valley of mes to temper your body and quickly improve your Martial Dao.] [Of course, you know this might be dangerous, but you think the danger shouldn''t be too great.] [After all, in the Desert of Death, the Demonic Dragon didn''t attack you Immortal ves from the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [So, the Demonic Phoenix in the Valley of mes might do the same.] [Moreover, you think that if the Demonic Phoenix really doesn''t attack you, you might be able to use your identity as an Immortal ve from the Immortal Arrival Sect to get close to the crack in the sealing formation.] [Wouldn''t that allow you to leave the Southern Regions directly?] Chapter 88: Rapidly improving, the strong Late Bloomer "Of course, you also considered trying to go through the Desert of Death, but the formation crack is at the bottom of the desert. If you try to approach it, it would be too obvious." "Three monthster, on your way to the Valley of mes, you passed through Green Hills City and took the opportunity to visit the Jiang Family." "Upon returning to the Jiang Family Mansion, you saw your father, Jiang Fushan. He was now old and gray, with no cultivation left in him." "You originally thought that because you had shattered your father Jiang Fushan''s Qi Sea multiple times, it had dyed his cultivation." "Unexpectedly, your father hadpletely given up on cultivation, abandoning the chance to pursue immortality." "Thinking about this, even with your Absolute Rationality, you felt a surge of emotion." "How strong is the allure of immortality for ordinary people?" "Back then, you kept shattering your father''s Qi Sea and even harbored murderous intent, fearing he couldn''t resist the temptation of immortality and wouldn''t cooperate with you." "Although you were eventually warned and didn''t seed, you left a casual remark telling him not to cultivate, without much hope.""Unexpectedly, your father, even without knowing your true reason for stopping him from cultivating, gave it up entirely because of your words." "This almost made you want to confess the truth to him." "However, your Absolute Rationality quickly suppressed your emotions, and you said nothing more." "After all, you remembered that when you intended to harm your father, a mysterious person had warned you through a voice transmission." "You didn''t know if that person was still watching everything here." "After all, that person''s goal was to make your father cultivate. If you revealed the truth, you felt it would be too dangerous." "Of course, you also thought about using Wicked Navigation to judge the danger, but unfortunately, this talent had too many ws." "It doesn''t indicate danger just because someone with higher cultivation is present. It only shows a dangerous route if a ce is inherently dangerous to you or if someone in that direction already harbors murderous intent towards you." "So, if someone develops murderous intent because of something you did, Wicked Navigation can''t predict it in advance." "After staying at the Jiang Family for a few days, you continued your journey to the Valley of mes." "In the forty-fourth year, you arrived outside the Valley of mes." "Before you even got close, the path shown by Wicked Navigation turned a faint red." "Clearly, this indicated that the Phoenix me Valley was dangerous for you." "However, the uniform faint red color made you feel relieved." "This likely meant that the demonic phoenixes here wouldn''t attack you." "Based on your years of studying Wicked Navigation, if the demonic phoenixes intended to attack you, the path would be a much brighter red, indicating maximum danger." "With that in mind, you didn''t hesitate and stepped into the Valley of mes." "As soon as you entered, the scorching Phoenix mes instantly turned your clothes to ashes." "Soon, your body also began to crack under the intense heat." "Fortunately, you possessed the Yimu Divine Body, which constantly repaired your body even as the Phoenix mes burned it." "Thus, you quickly activated the Martial Dao techniques from the Battle Victory Art, rapidly enhancing your Martial Dao cultivation." "In the forty-sixth year, your Martial Dao cultivation reached the fourth level of the Golden Body Realm." "This rate of improvement was several times faster than your usual cultivation." "Years flew by." "In the fifty-third year, your Martial Dao cultivation had reached the seventh level of the Golden Body Realm." "That year, you saw Heavenly Thunder descending from the sky, but because you had the jade talisman from the Immortal Arrival Sect, it didn''t strike you." "In the fifty-ninth year, your Martial Dao cultivation reached the peak of the Golden Body Realm." "At this point, both your Martial Dao and Immortal Dao had reached their peaks, and it was time to advance to a higher realm." "After a moment of hesitation, you decided to leave the Valley of mes." "Actually, over the years, you had tried to delve deeper into the Valley of mes, hoping to approach the formation crack and find a way to leave the Southern Regions." "But you failed every time. The Phoenix mes in the depths of the valley were beyond your endurance." "In the sixtieth year, you found a secluded spot and began your breakthrough." "This breakthrough took you more than half a year." "Your Martial Dao reached the Immovable Realm, and your Immortal Dao reached the Body Fusion Realm." "At this point, you were a bona fide expert." "If there was anything different about this breakthrough, it was that your Nascent Soul had be more agile." "You didn''t pay much attention to this, as you had long been ustomed to it." "After your breakthrough, you returned to the Immortal Arrival Sect." "You had been away for a long time and felt it was necessary to make asional appearances at the Immortal Spirit Sect, especially to maintain a good rtionship with Qiu Zhixuan and gain favor with Qiu Kuang." "After all, if you wanted to attain the position of elder in the future, you would need to rely on Qiu Kuang''s connections." "Although there were precedents forpeting for the elder position at the Great Ascension stage, it was rare, and without some connections, you felt it was still unstable."N?v(el)B\\jnn "In the following days, you began cultivating within the Immortal Spirit Sect." "Apart from asionally interacting with Qiu Zhixuan, you rarely left the sect." "Decades passed in the blink of an eye." "In the seventy-ninth year, your Immortal Dao cultivation broke through to the third level of the Body Fusion Realm." "It took you neen years to advance by just two minor realms." "Clearly, as your cultivation increased, your progress slowed down again." "In the eightieth year, your Late Bloomer talent activated, doubling your cultivation speed." "With the boost from your Late Bloomer talent, your cultivation speed finally increased significantly." "In the eighty-fourth year, your Immortal Dao cultivation broke through to the fourth level of the Body Fusion Realm." "In the eighty-ninth year, your Immortal Dao cultivation broke through to the fifth level of the Body Fusion Realm." "In the nieth year, your Late Bloomer talent strengthened again, further increasing your cultivation speed." "By this time, you were 110 years old, but your cultivation speed was elerating. Even though you were now in the Body Integration stage, it only took you two years to break through a minor realm." "In the ny-fifth year, your Immortal Dao cultivation reached the peak of the Body Integration stage." "Such rapid progress made you marvel at the power of the Late Bloomer talent." "And this was just the beginning. If it truly reached its maximum potential of ten times the speed, you couldn''t even imagine how fast your cultivation would be." "After your Immortal Dao cultivation reached its peak, you left the Immortal Arrival Sect again and headed to the Valley of mes to focus on Martial Dao cultivation." "Improving in Martial Dao was much harder than in the Immortal Dao." "Even with the double boost from your Late Bloomer talent and the assistance of the Phoenix mes, it still couldn''t match the speed of your Immortal Dao progress." "Based on your estimates, it would take about ten years to advance a minor realm in Martial Dao." "You thought this might be because you didn''t have a particrly good Martial Dao talent. Although your Yimu Divine Body could assist in martial training, it wasn''t specifically designed for Martial Dao enhancement." "In the hundredth year, your Late Bloomer talent strengthened again, now providing three times the cultivation speed." "This significantly elerated your Martial Dao cultivation." "In the 102nd year, you sessfully broke through to the second level of the Immovable Realm in Martial Dao." "In the 109th year, you broke through to the third level of the Immovable Realm." "In the 110th year, you looked up at the sky, and indeed, the giant hand that covered the sky did not appear." Chapter 89: Simulation ended, some guesses [In the blink of an eye, several years passed.] [Year 138. You are now 158 years old. Your Late Bloomer talent has increased your cultivation speed by six times.] [Your Martial Dao realm has finally reached the pinnacle of the Immovable Realm.] [It''s finally time to break through to a higher realm.] [You can''t help but feel a bit excited.] [Not just because of the increase in strength, but also because, if you sessfully break through to the Great Ascension stage, you have a high chance of bing an elder of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [This would allow you to truly be a core member of the Immortal Arrival Sect and gain ess to more secrets you might not know.] [Year 139. You leave the Valley of mes and find a secluded ce to prepare for the breakthrough.] [But at this moment, you see Heavenly Thunder shing in the sky!][You panic, thinking you have attracted the Heavenly Thunder.] [Quickly, you realize this is not the case, but you witness an even more heart-stopping scene.] [Because you discover that it is not Heavenly Thunder, but a tribtion for bing an immortal.] [Someone is undergoing the tribtion to be an immortal!] [You instinctively think it is your father, Jiang Fushan.] [You look up and realize it is not!] [It is a Lady in Red.] [Due to the distance, your Eye of Insight cannot probe her information.] [At this moment, a bad premonition arises in your heart.] [Could that giant hand covering the sky appear again?] [Half an hourter, the Lady in Red''s tribtion ends.] [And at this moment, you feel the sky darken.] [Is that a foot?] [Your Wicked Navigation is shing crazily, the entire navigation system is red, without any lighter colors.] [You see that towering foot step down, and the entire Southern Regions fall, with no survivors.] [You died at the age of 158!] [This simtion ends.] [Ding: One-time talent "Wicked Navigation" has been reimed. Temporary talent "Absolute Rationality" has been ced into the talent pool.] [For this simtion, you can choose two rewards: Late Bloomer (Talent), Divine Dao Cultivation, Immortal Arrival Sect Jade Talisman.] [Late Bloomer (Talent)]: Costs 1000 origin values. [Divine Dao Cultivation]: Costs 1000 origin values; Note: Includes Immortal Dao Cultivation (Body Fusion Realm pinnacle) and Martial Dao Cultivation (Immovable Realm pinnacle). [Immortal Arrival Sect Jade Talisman]: Costs 1 origin value; Note: An unrecognized, unregistered jade talisman, can be a nice decoration, but has no other use. Jiang Yifeng saw the simtion end. He immediately looked at the simtion rewards. He still remembered when the simtor upgraded, it mentioned that the cost of redeeming rewards would be significantly reduced. Thest upgrade of the simtor brought mostly disadvantages, but this small benefit he had kept in mind. He wanted to see if the upgrade was worth it. Of course, even if it wasn''t worth it, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t change it. But if it was worth it, he could find some psychologicalfort. When Jiang Yifeng saw the origin values needed for the rewards. Heughed heartily, muttering, "Not a loss, not a loss!" The origin values needed for redeeming rewards after this simtion were indeed very low. Especially for the Divine Dao Cultivation, if the origin values could be converted to energy values at a ratio of one to ten thousand, it would only cost 10 million energy values. He remembered thatst time, redeeming cultivation cost him 1 billion energy values, and that was for a realm lower than this one. In thisparison, the cost had been reduced by nearly a thousand times. However, Jiang Yifeng seemed to forget that he could no longer use mundane items to exchange for origin values. This meant that in the future, he would find it difficult to earn origin values through the Jiang n Firm, and he couldn''t use stones, flowers, or trees for exchange either. His future origin values, apart from relying on his existing stock, might require him to personally take risks. Looking at the simtion rewards. There were three rewards in total, one of which was a decoration. Jiang Yifeng didn''t hesitate and made his choice directly. "I choose Late Bloomer (Talent) and Divine Dao Cultivation!" [Ding, obtained Late Bloomer (Talent), deducting 1000 origin values, remaining origin values.] [Ding, obtained Divine Dao Cultivation, deducting 1000 origin values, remaining origin values.] A few secondster, Jiang Yifeng''s enhancement wasplete. He clenched his fist, feeling very strong. He thought that even in reality, he should have some ability to protect himself now! Perhaps after a few more simtions, as long as he didn''t provoke those fierce beasts or attract the attention of immortals from the Immortal Realm.N?v(el)B\\jnn Then he wouldn''t be in much danger. Indeed, strength is everything. Jiang Yifeng felt his sense of security had multiplied. After adapting to his newly acquired strength for a while, Jiang Yifeng began to think about the situation in this simtion. This time, the improvement in cultivation was immense, almost reaching two major realms. He was just a step away from the Great Ascension stage and couldpete for the position of elder in the Immortal Arrival Sect. If he truly became an elder of the Immortal Arrival Sect, he might learn some hidden information. It was a pity that an unexpected event urred at the end. But it must be said, the Orange Talent Late Bloomer had effects on cultivation beyond Jiang Yifeng''s expectations. Besides the cultivation improvement, many unforeseen events urred in this simtion. No, it didn''t go ording to n at all; it was all the Absolute Rationality talent acting on its own. In this simtion, due to his influence, his father Jiang Fushan did not cultivate, but someone else did be an immortal. This was something Jiang Yifeng had never considered before! Moreover, the one who appeared at the end to kill the immortal was not the giant hand, but a foot. It seemed they were not the same person. Not using hands but using feet? Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but feel that the immortals in the Immortal Realm seemed quite simple? They didn''t use any fancy immortal techniques, just hands and feet. "Not ssy at all, bad review!" Jiang Yifeng muttered under his breath. However, despite hisints, Jiang Yifeng''s thoughts continued. He was thinking that these simtions might indeed be the Immortal Realm''s powerful beings flipping the table. He thought it was possible that his father Jiang Fushan was a pawn of a powerful being in the Immortal Realm, and the one undergoing the tribtion this time was a pawn of another powerful being. And the giant hand and the foot might represent different powerful beings or their subordinates. They would flip the table when the other''s pawn was bing an immortal. But why? Jiang Yifeng couldn''t understand. Logically, bing an immortal shouldn''t be a big deal; the heavens shouldn''tck immortals, and one immortal shouldn''t affect the overall situation. Why would someone bing an immortal in the Southern Regions make them so angry? Willing to forsake their dignity as higher beings? Doing something as petty as flipping the table? Jiang Yifeng couldn''t figure it out for now. This could only be slowly explored in future simtions. Chapter 90: Exposed by Qiu Kuang Jiang Yifeng stopped thinking about the powerful beings of the Immortal Realm. Instead, he stepped out of his room and looked in the direction of Bright Moon City. Based on the information from thest simtion, he had exchanged the mountains over there for energy value using the simtor, which attracted arge number of Immortal ves to investigate. Those Immortal ves even dispatched many people to investigate the major cities around, including Green Hills City. Jiang Yifeng wasn''t sure if there were any Tribtion Crossing stage Immortal ves among them. If there were, the Breath Concealing Talisman he got from Bai Ruoxue wouldn''t be able to hide his cultivation level.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om So, figuring out how to solve this problem was his top priority now. Should he follow the simtion and create some bigmotion in a distant ce to muddy the waters? Jiang Yifeng hesitated for a moment, mumbling to himself. "Isn''t that a bit risky?"He felt that reality was different from the simtion; there was no room for trial and error! Who could guarantee that when he used his cultivation to travel quickly in reality, he wouldn''t be discovered by the Immortal ves? In the end, Jiang Yifeng chose to y it safe. There was no need to take risks now. From this simtion, he could roughly estimate that those Immortal ves wouldn''te to Green Hills City so soon. There was still time for him toplete the next simtion. As long as he could cultivate to a high level of the Great Ascension stage in the next simtion, he felt he could protect himself from the Immortal Arrival Sect''s Immortal ves. After all, he was a dual cultivator of Martial Dao and Divine Dao. While he might not be able to defeat them across levels, he was confident in his ability to protect himself. If he could cultivate to the Tribtion Crossing stage... Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng grinned. Those Immortal ves from the Immortal Arrival Sect would be nothing! After figuring things out, Jiang Yifeng calmed down, no longer feeling anxious. Given his current talent and the results of the previous simtions, he was confident he could achieve his goal. Even so, in the following days, apart from listening to music daily, Jiang Yifeng spent most of his time making Teleportation Jade tes. He even made ones far superior to the ones Bai Ruoxue had given him, capable of teleporting thousands of kilometers away. Always have a backup n. Although Jiang Yifeng believed that one more simtion would make him unafraid of the Immortal ves, it was still wise to be prepared for any eventuality. Seven days passed in the blink of an eye. Jiang Yifeng returned to his room. As soon as the simtion count refreshed, he silentlymanded. "Start the simtion!" [Simtion count -1, remaining count 0] [Drawing Purple Talent costs 100 origin values, drawing Orange Talent with a chance costs 1000 origin values, please choose!] "Choose to draw Orange Talent with a chance." [Ding, deducting 1000 origin values, talent drawing in progress, remaining energy value origin values.] [Congrattions, Host, you have obtained Purple Talent: Love Saint.] [Love Saint]: You are a master of emotions, and with just a slight effort, you can easily win the hearts of beautiful women. [Ding, you have obtained a one-time talent: Death Substitute Doll.] [Death Substitute Doll]: In a fatal crisis, it can rece you in dying once. [Hint: Do you want to choose talents from the talent pool?] [Talent Pool: Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root, Child of Fortune, Absolute Rationality.] Seeing the one-time talent, Jiang Yifeng''s eyes lit up. A Death Substitute Doll, that was like having an extra life. Not bad, not bad. As for the talent pool, Jiang Yifeng pondered for a long time and finally chose to carry the Child of Fortune. Although this Child of Fortune talent felt like a wed version, it did help him gain resources. This could also speed up his cultivation. As for Absolute Rationality, Jiang Yifeng admitted it was powerful, but the actions he took in thest simtion really crossed his bottom line. He even had the thought of killing his own father. Being human, he couldn''t lose his basic humanity. This made Jiang Yifeng decide topletely abandon this talent. The main reason was that he worried that if he got used to having Absolute Rationality in the simtion, he would be indifferent and unemotional. That was something he didn''t want to see. After making his choices, Jiang Yifeng looked at the simtor. [The 24th simtion begins.] [You are slightly stunned, realizing you have entered the simtion.] [On the first day, you directly find your father, Jiang Fushan, and tell him not to cultivate.] [Your father, Jiang Fushan, is confused and tells you to stop reading storybooks.] [You can''t exin it clearly for a moment, so you just tell your father to remember your words.] [Your father, Jiang Fushan, sees you being persistent and justughs, saying he remembers and won''t cultivate.] [On the second day, you go to the Spring Blossom Pavilion and find Qiu Zhixuan, wanting to connect with her emotionally.] [That''s right, without the Absolute Rationality talent, you still choose to use emotions.] [But you feel that you are different from the previous heartless self; youe with sincerity, using only a small part.] [On the tenth day, you and Qiu Zhixuan be emotionally connected and spend a wonderful night together. You put in countless sweat and effort for this.] [When you had Absolute Rationality, it took you three whole years to win Qiu Zhixuan, but this time it only took ten days.] [You can''t help but disdainfully think: Absolute Rationality is useless, your original personality is stronger and more attractive to girls.] [You automatically ignore the role of the "Love Saint" talent this time.] [Years pass in the blink of an eye.] [You and Qiu Zhixuan now have a child.] [Over the years, you have also let Qiu Zhixuan know that you have obtained a fortuitous encounter and entered the Immortal Dao.] [This time, with the Love Saint talent, Qiu Zhixuan is even more devoted and infatuated with you.] [She doesn''t ask for any details and confesses her identity to you.] [It''s worth mentioning that your cultivation has also made breakthroughs during your free time.] [At this moment, your Martial Dao cultivation has reached the first level of the Transcendent Realm, and your Immortal Dao cultivation has reached the first level of the Great Ascension stage.] [In the twelfth year, you feel the ground shaking, and you know the inheritance ising.] [So, using the same method, you bring Qiu Zhixuan into the inheritance hall.] [This time, because you have the Child of Fortune talent, the inheritance does not reject you.] [As for your father? You had already arranged for him before entering and did not bring him into the inheritance hall.] [Three dayster, Yang Zuo arrives, and Qiu Zhixuan calls for help from Qiu Kuang.] [Soon, Qiu Kuang arrives, understands the situation, and directly ps Yang Zuo to death.] [At this moment, you are just pretending and cooperating with the inheritance to reveal all your strength.] [However, you notice that Qiu Kuang looks at you with a strange expression.] [You frown slightly, wondering, "What''s going on?"] [You did everything ording to the previous simtion, so why is Qiu Kuang still looking at you with suspicion?] [Just as you are puzzled, Qiu Kuang speaks.] [Qiu Kuang sneers and says that while the Immortal Dao inheritance can indeed enhance one''s strength, reaching the Great Ascension stage in just three days is absurd. Does he look like a fool to you?] Chapter 91: Head to the Immortal Arrival Sect headquarters Qiu Kuang''s words shocked you. You initially thought that following the previous simtions would ensure sess, but you overlooked your own strength. In the previous simtions, your strength wasn''t as formidable as it is now. Perhaps in Qiu Kuang''s eyes, the three Immortal Dao inheritances could indeed bring such an improvement. But now, your strength far exceeds that of the previous simtions, so you couldn''t deceive Qiu Kuang! For a moment, your heart was filled with bitterness, but you still forced yourself to remain calm and looked at Qiu Kuang with feigned confusion. Qiu Kuang was unmoved and spoke bluntly: either you abolish your cultivation and stay with Qiu Zhixuan, and he would protect you both, or you die. What to do? What to do? The pressure from Qiu Kuang made you extremely anxious and unable to think clearly. At this moment, Qiu Zhixuan suddenly knelt in front of Qiu Kuang, tears streaming down her face. She begged Qiu Kuang not to abolish your cultivation and not to kill you.Seeing his beloved granddaughter like this, Qiu Kuang felt helpless. Finally, he told you that no matter what your reasons were for deliberately approaching his granddaughter, if you dared to betray her, you would surely die. Hearing this, you breathed a sigh of relief and repeatedly made promises. Several days passed, and you, Qiu Zhixuan, and Jiang Lianqiu were taken back to the Immortal Arrival Sect''s branch by Qiu Kuang. However, perhaps because you couldn''t deceive Qiu Kuang, he didn''t arrange for you to join the Immortal Arrival Sect. In fact, he even confined you in the pce. You had no way to resist this. So, you could only focus on cultivating. Decades passed in the blink of an eye. In the thirty-eighth year, your cultivation level had reached the third tier of the Great Ascension stage. This cultivation speed was not particrly fast. You knew that your true rapid improvement would begin after a hundred years, when you activated the Late Bloomer talent. But this time, being confined by Qiu Kuang and not allowed to join the Immortal Arrival Sect, you didn''t know if you would have the chance to activate that talent. In the fortieth year, Qiu Zhixuan excitedly found you and told you that her grandfather, Qiu Kuang, had agreed to help you get a chance to join the Immortal Arrival Sect. Hearing this, you were overjoyed and hugged Qiu Zhixuan tightly. In the forty-first year, Qiu Kuang took you to undergo the assessment to join the Immortal Arrival Sect. You gritted your teeth and endured the difort, ughtering three cities in a row to pass the first assessment. As for the subsequent assessment of killing local cultivators, youpleted it rtively smoothly. After all, you were not a saint. ughtering cities was hard for you because they were full of civilians, and the sheer number made you hesitant. Killing a few cultivators, however, didn''t burden you much. This time, there were no more tests. Qiu Kuang knew you had an agenda, and he only agreed to help you join the Immortal Arrival Sect to avoid breaking his granddaughter''s heart. You sessfully obtained the jade talisman, the token of the Immortal Arrival Sect. This made you breathe a sigh of relief. You felt that as long as you stayed low-key, you would have plenty of simtion time to improve. So, you once again immersed yourself in cultivation. In the forty-second year, you were notified to go to the Desert of Death to encircle the cultivators of Spine Mountain. In reality, Jiang Yifeng felt something was off when he saw this. How did it be the forty-second year? Shouldn''t it be the forty-third year? Suddenly, he pped his forehead. He almost forgot that more than half a year had passed in reality. So, it was normal for the events in the simtion to happen a bit earlier. Jiang Yifeng continued to look at the simtor. You and a group of Immortal ves arrived outside the Desert of Death and saw Old Li battling a Demonic Dragon. Your heart was filled with joy. You knew that the advice you gave your father, Jiang Fushan, at the start of the simtion¡ªto avoid cultivation¡ªhad worked. This brought tears to your eyes. Even though your father didn''t believe you at the time, he remembered and followed through. Half a monthter, all the cultivators of Spine Mountain perished, and you all returned to the Immortal Arrival Sect. Because of your outstanding performance in killing enemies, you were promoted to Protector Disciple by Shen Wuyou. Shen Wuyou patted your shoulder, praised you for your talent, and encouraged you to keep up the good work. He hinted that you might soon be an elder.N?v(el)B\\jnn You were overjoyed. Originally, you had nned to give uppeting for the elder position. After all, without Qiu Kuang''s strong rmendation, you felt your qualifications were insufficient. But to your surprise, the sect master Shen Wuyou noticed you and even made you a promise. In the forty-third year, you returned to Green Hills City and saw your elderly father, Jiang Fushan, bedridden and frail. Seeing him like this, you couldn''t bear it. So, you told your father to cultivate, assuring him that as long as he didn''t reach an extremely high level, it shouldn''t be a problem. But Jiang Fushan just shook his head. He told you that although he didn''t know why you didn''t want him to cultivate, he trusted you had your reasons. He didn''t want to be a burden to you. Being able to see you onest time before his end was enough for him. In the forty-fifth year, your father passed away peacefully. You spent these two years at home with him, making up for the guilt in your heart. In the forty-sixth year, you began to hunt down seekers of the Immortal Dao on arge scale. In the fifty-first year, your merits in the Immortal Arrival Sect met the standard, and you earned the opportunity to be assessed for promotion to elder. Shen Wuyou told you that bing an elder was a significant event and required an assessment at the Immortal Arrival Sect''s headquarters. Afterward, Shen Wuyou took you away. You had no idea what this assessment entailed. But it was said that everyone who was promoted to elder had to undergo it. You didn''t hesitate and followed along. Having been in the Immortal Arrival Sect for so many years, you had only ever been in the Great Abyssal Kingdom''s branch. You were indeed curious about the headquarters. Of course, you were also somewhat cautious. After all, the headquarters of the Immortal Arrival Sect was too mysterious. You knew that not only you but other ordinary Immortal ves also didn''t know where it was! You followed Shen Wuyou, flying all the way, and then entered the Desert of Death. You frowned slightly, puzzled. Was the headquarters of the Immortal Arrival Sect in the Desert of Death? After a long time, Shen Wuyou brought you to an oasis in the Desert of Death, thennded and said to you, "We''re here!" Looking around, you were even more confused. Although you didn''t have memories from previous simtions, you had a fragmentary map of the Desert of Death. You knew this was the ce where you had hidden and cultivated in the early simtions. The headquarters of the Immortal Arrival Sect was actually here? But why hadn''t you encountered it before? Chapter 92: Extraordinary Immortal Arrival Sect [Quickly, you learn from Shen Wuyou the reason why you didn''t notice anything amiss in your previous simtions.] [Shen Wuyou looks at you, points to the distant, sprawling mountain range, and tells you that is the headquarters of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [He says that although the mountain range doesn''t seem far, it''s merely an illusion. It''s impossible to reach it by flying; you need to use an ancient teleportation formation in this oasis.] [You follow the direction Shen Wuyou is pointing.] [Your heart skips a beat¡ªit''s the mountain range you had almost forgotten!] [You suddenly recall that during one simtion, while chasing mountain bandits, you got lost in the Desert of Death and headed towards that mountain range.] [Initially, you thought it was the Evergreen Mountain Range, which led you astray.] [In subsequent simtions, you focused solely on increasing your strength and leaving the Southern Regions, never paying attention to that mountain range. You never imagined it was the headquarters of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [Lost in your thoughts, Shen Wuyou leads you to a hidden spot in the oasis.][As an eighth-grade Formation Master, you quickly identify a teleportation formation there.] [Moreover, you can''t fullyprehend this teleportation formation at first nce.] [After observing for a while, you determine that this formation surpasses the ordinary ninth-grade level, reaching the level of an immortal-grade formation.] [No wonder you couldn''t discover it in previous simtions. Back then, you weren''t even a Formation Master, so how could you have noticed such an advanced formation?] [Your suspicions are confirmed.] [The Immortal Arrival Sect, established nearly a million years ago, is indeed not as simple as it appears.] [With such an immortal-grade teleportation formation, could Shen Wuyou, who is only at the Fifth Layer of Tribtion, really be the sect master?] [You suspect he might just be a puppet sect master!] [While you''re lost in thought, Shen Wuyou activates the immortal-grade teleportation formation.] [He calls out to you and steps inside.] [Taking a deep breath, you realize you need to be even more cautious on this journey.] [After all, if Shen Wuyou is merely a puppet sect master, Qiu Kuang''s influence might not be effective at the Immortal Arrival Sect headquarters!] [But there''s no turning back now; you have to go.] [The more mysterious and powerful the Immortal Arrival Sect is, the more likely they are to possess deeper information.] [Without hesitation, you follow Shen Wuyou into the semi-immortal-grade teleportation formation.] [The teleportationsts a long time, indicating a considerable distance based on your understanding of formations.] [You begin to specte that you might have been transported beyond the Southern Regions!] [After half a day, you and Shen Wuyou arrive in an ancient-looking building.] [As soon as you appear, several guards stop you.] [Using your Eye of Insight, you discover that each guard has the strength of the Fifth Layer of Tribtion.] [You''re astonished. Does this mean that Shen Wuyou, the puppet sect master, is on par with the guards at the headquarters?] [Before you can think further, Shen Wuyou reveals his identity, allowing you to pass smoothly.] [Exiting the building, you see a dense forest and follow Shen Wuyou forward.] [The mountain range is vast; it takes half a day to traverse itpletely with Shen Wuyou.] [Shen Wuyou points to a towering gate and says, "This is the true Immortal Arrival Sect."] [Looking up, you see the three grand characters "Immortal Arrival Sect" inscribed on the towering gate, exuding an extraordinary aura.] [By now, you''re utterly shocked.] [You had imagined the headquarters of the Immortal Arrival Sect to be extraordinary, but reality surpasses your expectations.] [Not only the grand gate but everything you''ve seen along the way leaves you in awe.] [On your journey, you encounter numerous cultivators.] [Each one is dressed in the ck attire of the Immortal Arrival Sect, clearly members of the sect.] [However, the key point is that through your Eye of Insight, you observe that most of these cultivators have surpassed the Fifth Layer of Tribtion.] [Even those at the Eighth and Ninth Layers of Tribtion are not umon.] [This makes you even more puzzled.] [With such powerful strength, why haven''t the local cultivators of the Southern Regions been wiped out?] [If the headquarters sent a few experts, how could Old Li with his Seventh Layer of Tribtion protect the local cultivators of the Southern Regions?] [Could it be that the Immortal Arrival Sect is doing this on purpose?] [Is their goal not to eliminate all the local cultivators of the Southern Regions?] [You can''t help but wonder, "Could the truth be that the Immortal Arrival Sect wants to clear its name?"] [Quickly, you shake your head, dismissing your wild thoughts.] [Many things have already proven that the Immortal Arrival Sect is relentlessly killing local cultivators in the Southern Regions, preventing them from cultivating.] [They even use the blood of ordinary people for blood sacrifices to summon immortals!]N?v(el)B\\jnn [Clearly, they are not intentionally sparing the local cultivators of the Southern Regions. You think there might be some other restriction.] [Or perhaps the powerful beings of the Immortal Realm are deliberately imposing limitations.] [Before long, Shen Wuyou leads you to a side hall in the headquarters of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [He gestures for you to enter, saying someone inside is ready to conduct an assessment.] [Feeling suspicious, you still obediently walk in.] [After all, you''vee this far, and there''s no turning back from the assessment now.] [Entering the side hall, you don''t see anyone.] [A sense of foreboding washes over you; you wonder if something unexpected is about to happen.] [However, remembering your one-time-use Death Substitute Doll, you feel more courageous.] [You survey your surroundings. The dimly lit side hall has no furnishings.] [But you notice many murals on the walls.] [Curious, you walk over to examine them, and the first mural catches your attention.] [The mural depicts a transparent light shield covering a continent, with countless cultivators inside being struck by Heavenly Thunder. Many are attacking the light shield, trying to break it and escape.] [The more you look, the more familiar it seems. It resembles the situation in the Southern Regions.] [The Southern Regions are also covered by a sealing formation, and every few decades, the cultivators inside are struck by Heavenly Thunder. They, too, try to break the formation and escape.] [A thought suddenly urs to you: Could these murals depict the history of the Southern Regions?] [You quickly move on to examine the other murals, hoping to find more clues!] Chapter 93: Southern Regions Past Events [After observing for a long time, you realize that the stories depicted in these murals are interconnected.] [The first mural shows a light shield enveloping the continent. Every few decades, Heavenly Thunder descends, killing countless cultivators. All cultivators wish to break the shield and escape.] [The second mural depicts two individuals using immense power to create four cracks in the light shield, escaping heavily injured.] [The third mural shows a shadowy figure appearing in the sky shortly after the two escape, enraged and attempting to shatter the continent.] [The fourth mural depicts a white-d figure appearing to stop the shadowy figure just as he is about to strike.] [The fifth mural shows the two figures having a long, secret conversation, after which the white-d figure captures four fierce beasts to guard the cracks in the light shield.] [The previously enraged shadowy figure then controls a cultivator from the Southern Regions to establish the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [You stare at the fifth mural, feeling that the controlled cultivator who founded the Immortal Arrival Sect looks familiar, as if you''ve seen him somewhere before!] [Unfortunately, the depiction on the mural is too vague for you to see clearly.][In the end, you shake your head, dismissing the thought, thinking you might be overthinking it.] [The Immortal Spirit Sect has existed for millions of years; the founder should have long been dead. How could you have seen him?] [After viewing the five murals, you are almost certain that they recount the history of the Southern Regions.] [Except for not exining the origin of the sealing formation, everything else matches the events in the Southern Regions.] [This includes the initial attempts by everyone to break the formation.] [Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya''s escape.] [The wrath of the Immortal Realm''s powerful beings, wanting to shatter the Southern Regions.]n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [The appearance of another powerful being, the negotiation, or rather, the confrontation between the two.] [Finally, the origins of the four fierce beasts and the founding of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [At this point, you also understand why there have always been legends about Mo Jingtian.] [Because they did indeed escape!] [You now realize that before the escape of Lu Wuya and Mo Jingtian, there was no Immortal Arrival Sect.] [So, at that time, there was no shortage of cultivators. Although they faced Heavenly Thunder every few decades, the cultivators of the Southern Regions did not have to hide from the Immortal Arrival Sect''s pursuit.] [Of course, it might have been their escape that attracted the attention of the Immortal Realm''s powerful beings, making life more difficult for the cultivators of the Southern Regions.] [These murals have answered many of your questions, but you are now even more puzzled by the Immortal Arrival Sect''s recent actions.] [Weren''t you here to participate in the elder assessment?] [Why are you being shown these past events?] [Just then, you notice a shadowy figure appearing out of thin air.] [He looks at you with a sinister smile, and you are stunned. Isn''t this Shen Wuyou?] [But soon, you realize something is off. This person does resemble Shen Wuyou, but his demeanor and actions are entirely different.] [Suddenly, you think of something and quickly look at the fifth mural.] [This person''s demeanor is almost identical to the Southern Regions cultivator who founded the Immortal Arrival Sect depicted in the fifth mural.] [Could it be the same person?] [You can hardly believe it. Can an ordinary cultivator live for millions of years?] [You quickly use the Eye of Insight to investigate this person.] [As soon as you finish, you are stunned!] [What''s going on? Has the Eye of Insight malfunctioned?] [You only see a string of gibberish, unable to gather any information about this person.] [This makes you even more anxious. Previously, the Eye of Insight could even probe the cultivation of the Mystic Turtle in the Endless Sea, which was in the Mystic Immortal Realm.] [It could even reveal the past life of Wu Youdao, the reincarnation of the White Tiger!] [If the powerful Eye of Insight talent has failed,] [Then how strong must this person be?] [Before you can think further, the person speaks.] [He looks at you and says, "A fragment of the Insight Rule, very impressive, but it''s quite impolite to use it on a strong person."] [After saying this, he snorts coldly, and you immediately cough up a mouthful of blood.] [Your mind is already in turmoil. Not only did you fail to see through him, but he saw through you, knowing about your Insight talent.] [But isn''t that a talent? He actually called it the power of the Dao.] [This leads you to many thoughts.] [Although you don''t understand what the Dao is, as a transmigrator, you''ve read simr novels and know that the Dao is something extremely powerful.] [It seems that the simtor you never deeply researched might also have some significant origin.] [However, you know this is not the time to dwell on these thoughts.] [Instead, you look at the person in front of you, remaining vignt, worried about whether the Death Substitute Doll would be effective if danger arises, given how powerful this person is.] [The founder of the Immortal Arrival Sect, seeing your cautious expression,ughs heartily and tells you not to be nervous.] [He asks if you want to know the story behind the murals.] [Although you are scared and unsure of his intentions, you also know this is a rare opportunity to learn about the Southern Regions.] [So, you nod.] [Seeing this, he begins to slowly recount the story.] [He tells you that he is indeed the founder of the Immortal Arrival Sect, named Shen Wutian, a genius from the same era as Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya!] [And the sect master outside, Shen Wuyou, is merely a clone he created.] [When Shen Wutian mentions Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya, his words are filled with agitation, as if there is some deep-seated grudge.] [You are puzzled but do not interrupt.] [He continues, saying that after Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya selfishly escaped, the Southern Regions became a living hell.] [The two powerful beings from the Immortal Realm used four fierce beasts to block the cracks in the formation.] [And he, the strongest in the Southern Regions apart from Lu Wuya and Mo Jingtian, was chosen by the Immortal Realm''s powerful beings to be the founder of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [Hearing this, you understand that after Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya escaped, Shen Wutian became the strongest and was selected as a pawn by the Immortal Realm''s powerful beings.] [Perhaps this is why Shen Wutian showed emotional turmoil when mentioning Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya!] [Shen Wuyou does not stop and continues to narrate.] [He says that at first, he had no sense of self, like a walking corpse, ruthlessly killing his own kind every day.] [He lived a life worse than death until one day, he discovered the current headquarters of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [He found that thisnd was an ancient relic, and here, he could temporarily escape the control of the Immortal Realm''s powerful beings.] [So, he established the headquarters of the Immortal Arrival Sect here, allowing him to temporarily break free from the control of those powerful beings.] [He continues, saying that although this ancientnd gave him temporary self-awareness, it was because the Immortal Realm''s powerful beings were too arrogant.] [The powerful beings of the Immortal Realm did not care whether he could regain self-awareness, as long as hepleted his tasks.] [At this point, Shen Wutian looks at you for a moment before continuing, saying that he is now at the brink of a breakthrough.] [Once he breaks through again, even if he leaves this ce, he will have a chance topletely free himself from the control of the Immortal Realm''s powerful beings.] [He asks if you are willing to help him!] [Hearing this, a sense of foreboding rises in your heart.] Chapter 94: Shen Wutians scheme "Help him? Shen Wutian''s cultivation level is beyond the reach of your Eye of Insight. How do you n to help him break through?" At that moment, Shen Wutian''s eerieughter echoed through the hall. He then said, "Divine Dao, I''ve finally encountered someone who cultivates the Divine Dao." Hearing this, you frowned, thinking to yourself, was the elder assessment just a ruse all along? Was it because your cultivation of the Divine Dao was seen through by Shen Wutian''s puppet, Shen Wuyou, that you were brought here? Were they using the uniqueness of your Divine Dao cultivation to help Shen Wutian break through? Your guess was only half right. It was indeed because of the uniqueness of your Divine Dao cultivation that Shen Wuyou chose you. But you didn''t know that originally, you were indeed brought here just for the elder assessment. However, this assessment was also a way for Shen Wutian to identify anyone cultivating the Divine Dao.Not just you, but everyone participating in the elder assessment was subjected to this. If a participant wasn''t cultivating the Divine Dao, they would be imnted with a restriction, allowing Shen Wutian to control them when necessary. But once someone cultivating the Divine Dao was discovered, Shen Wutian''s n would seed. The real reason, which Shen Wutian didn''t tell you, was that he had obtained an ancient dark art in this ancientnd. His current cultivation strength was all thanks to this dark art. But even now, he hadn''t fully mastered it. To truly master it, he needed the Nascent Soul of a true Divine Dao cultivator to reforge himself. So, initially, Shen Wutian didn''t know you were cultivating the Divine Dao! It was only after you entered the side hall that he discovered you were cultivating the Ancient Divine Dao. At that moment, Shen Wutian was overjoyed. He had schemed for hundreds of thousands of years and finally found a true Divine Dao cultivator. He was about to achieve his dark art''s ultimate form. This was also why he patiently talked to you for so long; he was simply too excited. He finally saw the dawn of breaking free from the control of the Immortal Realm''s great powers. While you were lost in thought, you saw Shen Wutian muttering something under his breath. After he finished, figures started rushing into the side hall one after another. Time passed bit by bit, and half an hourter, the entire side hall was packed with people, and even outside, it was a sea of people. For a moment, you couldn''t count how many people had arrived, but you estimated there were at least hundreds of thousands. Of course, that wasn''t the key point. The key point was that every single one of these people had a cultivation level above the Fifth Layer of Tribtion. This once again shocked you with the power of the Immortal Arrival Sect''s headquarters. So many experts were hidden here. If they had mobilized even a few, the local cultivators of the Southern Regions would have been wiped out long ago!N?v(el)B\\jnn However, you knew now wasn''t the time to think about that. You just wanted to know what Shen Wutian was nning. After all, you only suspected Shen Wutian might be harmful to you, but you didn''t know he had cultivated a dark art, so you couldn''t guess his intentions. Soon, you didn''t need to guess anymore. Because the scene before you left you utterly shocked. You saw those experts above the Fifth Layer of Tribtion startmitting suicide one after another. After their deaths, their souls and blood all gathered towards Shen Wutian. At that moment, Shen Wutian looked at you with a smile and asked if you woulde willingly or if he had to do it himself. By this point, even if you were foolish, you would have some guesses. You realized this must be Shen Wutian''s so-called breakthrough. But his breakthrough required not only your death but also the deaths of tens of thousands, possibly even hundreds of thousands of experts above the Fifth Layer of Tribtion, all to be his nourishment for the breakthrough. At this moment, you suddenly understood why the Immortal Arrival Sect''s headquarters had never sent experts to eradicate the local cultivators of the Southern Regions. It was all for Shen Wutian''s cultivation needs. In this ancientnd, so many tribtion experts could remain unnoticed, but if they were released, even the great powers in the heavens wouldn''t allow Shen Wutian to carry out his ns. Seeing you remain silent, Shen Wutian didn''t hesitate any longer. With a wave of his hand, he captured you. You felt your soul and flesh being extracted. After a long time, you gradually lost consciousness. Your one-time talent, the Death Substitute Doll, activated. The you in Shen Wutian''s hand vanished, reced by a rag doll! Seeing the rag doll in his hand, Shen Wuyou''s expression turned grim with rage. However, he didn''t stop his actions. Although you escaped using the Death Substitute Doll, he still obtained part of your Divine Dao blood and soul! He intended to use this bit of Divine Dao essence to take a gamble. ... In the fifty-third year, you slowly woke up. You didn''t know how long you had been unconscious, nor where you were. But you knew you had escaped from Shen Wutian''s grasp. You had a vague sense when you activated the Death Substitute Doll. You rubbed your heavy head and began to investigate your surroundings. You found yourself in a simple wooden hut, indicating that its owner wasn''t wealthy. You thought you might have been saved by a kind-hearted person while you were unconscious. Before you could think further, a simple and honest young man walked in from outside. Seeing you awake, he was overjoyed! After some inquiries, you got a rough understanding of the current situation. The young man''s name was Liang Dahu, a young hunter. He found you unconscious in the wild and carried you back. ording to Dahu, you had been unconscious for half a year. During this time, he and his younger sister took turns taking care of you. Naturally, you were deeply grateful. You then asked where you were. Dahu told you this was Qingliang Mountain, under the territory of the Cangyun Sect. Hearing this, you were puzzled. What was the Cangyun Sect? You had never heard of it before! Suddenly, a thought struck you, and your eyes lit up! You thought you might have turned misfortune into fortune and ended up outside the Southern Regions. The more you thought about it, the more likely it seemed. After all, Dahu appeared to be an ordinary person, yet he could mention the name of a sect, something impossible in the Southern Regions. In the Southern Regions, ordinary people who knew about cultivators would be killed by the Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect. Chapter 95: Liang Dahu, Ye Xiaoqing So you quickly asked Liang Dahu, "Which major region is this?" Unfortunately, Dahu was just amoner and had only heard of the Cangyun Sect by name. The Nine Mystic Realm has several major regions, but he had no idea about such things. Thus, you had to temporarily give up on determining which region you had arrived in. In the days that followed, you stayed at Liang Dahu''s home. Of course, you didn''t stay for free. Every few days, you would go out and bring back arge amount of game. This made Dahu and his sister, Ye Xiaoqing, feel like they were the ones taking advantage of you. In truth, you stayed here partly to help improve the lives of those who had shown you kindness. The other reason was that you had been severely injured when Shen Wutian extracted arge amount of your blood and part of your soul.At this moment, you could only exert the power of the Foundation Establishment stage. Staying with Dahu and his sister at least ensured your safety and allowed you to slowly recover your strength. Once you ventured far, you couldn''t be sure what might happen!N?v(el)B\\jnn After all, you were unfamiliar with this ce. You didn''t know which areas might be dangerous. You decided to wait until your strength recovered before making any ns. Your current power was too limited. Two years passed in the blink of an eye. In the fifty-fifth year, Dahu came limping back. He knelt in front of you, begging you to save Ye Xiaoqing. After years of living together, Dahu and his sister had long realized you were no ordinary person. Now that Ye Xiaoqing was in danger, Dahu could only turn to you for help. Seeing Dahu''s appearance, you frowned slightly. You didn''t want to get involved in too many matters; you just wanted to peacefully recover your cultivation. But you still asked Dahu what had happened. You thought that if it wasn''t a big deal, you would help, considering you had lived in their home for so long. Dahu didn''t dare to hide anything and exined everything in detail. It turned out that Ye Xiaoqing had been captured by some thugs. After learning that the thugs were just ordinary people, you felt relieved and agreed to help. However, when you followed Dahu to find the thugs, you didn''t find Ye Xiaoqing. After some interrogation, you learned that shortly after Dahu left, Ye Xiaoqing had been taken away by a female immortal. She said Ye Xiaoqing had the potential for cultivation. Hearing this, you weren''t surprised. You already knew Ye Xiaoqing had a talent for cultivation. Although your Eye of Insight couldn''t see others'' specific talents, Your years of cultivation allowed you to judge a person''s potential based on their affinity with the spiritual energy in the air. After all, those with spiritual roots naturally attracted more spiritual energy around them. You had originally nned to leave some Immortal Dao techniques for Ye Xiaoqing when you left, but now it seemed unnecessary. After that, your days returned to peace, but Dahu became increasingly silent. Having lived with them for so long, you knew that Dahu and Xiaoqing were not biological siblings but orphans who had grown up relying on each other. You could also see that Dahu had always had special feelings for Xiaoqing. Now that Ye Xiaoqing had entered the Immortal Sect, Dahu was undoubtedly feeling conflicted. He might be happy for her, but more likely, he felt inferior! A few dayster, you found Dahu and asked if he was willing to practice martial arts, to pursue the Martial Dao and chase after Ye Xiaoqing. This was a decision you made after much thought. You felt that if it weren''t for Dahu saving you when you were unconscious, you might have ended up in the belly of a wild beast. Now, teaching him martial arts and giving him a chance to chase after his beloved could be considered repaying your debt. Hearing the opportunity to follow in Xiaoqing''s footsteps, Dahu didn''t hesitate and wanted to be your disciple. You didn''t agree but expressed your willingness to teach him. After that, besides your daily cultivation to recover your strength, you also taught Dahu the War God Art. It had to be said, Dahu''s talent in martial arts was indeed mediocre. But fortunately, he was hardworking. Hepleted all the body training tasks you set for him every day, and even trained extra on his own. The reason was simply because you had told him that without the talent for cultivation, practicing martial arts would be even harder, and to catch up in the Immortal Dao, he would have to put in more effort. Ten years passed in a sh. In the sixty-third year, your cultivation had only recovered to the peak of Core Formation! It could only be said that the damage Shen Wutian''s Dark Arts inflicted on you was too severe. You started toin about the one-time talent Death Substitute Doll. It was supposed to save your life, so why did you still suffer such severe injuries? You wanted to give it a bad review. During these ten years, Dahu''s martial arts had also made progress, breaking through to the Condensing Core Realm, equivalent to the Foundation Establishment stage in the Immortal Dao. This was much faster than your initial progress. This wasn''t because Dahu''s martial arts talent was better than yours. It was because the area outside the Southern Regions was more suitable for cultivation, whether in the Immortal Dao or Martial Dao. Even someone like Dahu, with mediocre martial arts talent, made decent progress with your help, eating demonic beast meat every day and using it to train. After all, demonic beast meat was also a resource for martial arts cultivation. This made you recall your earlier simtions, where you had to eat ordinary beast meat while training in the Southern Regions. The rest had to be slowly honed using the unnamed techniques from the War God Art. This made you realize the immense importance of cultivation resources, whether in the Martial Dao or Immortal Dao. Of course, you also knew that Dahu''s rapid progress was not just due to the demonic beast meat you hunted for him, but also his relentless training. These years, you had seen with your own eyes how Dahu slept only two or three hours a day, spending the rest of his time training in martial arts. One day, Dahu came to you and said he wanted to go to the Cangyun Sect to find Xiaoqing. In fact, over the years, Ye Xiaoqing had sent letters home, and both you and Liang Dahu knew that she had been taken by a fairy from the Cangyun Sect. You looked at Dahu and smiled, nodding without stopping him. Instead, you gave him dozens of Teleportation Jade tes for his protection. These Teleportation Jade tes were made by you in reality and had never been used. Now, you gave almost half of them to Dahu. Of course, you modified the Teleportation Jade tes to activate with martial energy. Dahu left, and the slightly shabby wooden hut was left with only you, the outsider. Time flowed like water, and before you knew it, decades had passed. In the seventy-ninth year, you finally regained the strength of the early Spirit Transformation stage. That same year, you turned one hundred years old, and your Late Bloomer talent activated, doubling your cultivation speed. Chapter 96: Sister Fairy of Three Thousand Years [In the eightieth year, you looked up at the sky with increasing despondency and let out a sigh.] [During this year, you did not feel any eleration in the recovery of your injuries.] [You wondered if the "Late Bloomer" talent couldn''t speed up healing.] [But this puzzled you greatly, as cultivation is supposed to elerate spiritual energy absorption and increase one''s power.] [Now, you''re also absorbing spiritual energy to heal, so why isn''t this talent working?] [You cursed inwardly, "Damn double standards!"]n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om [In the eighty-fifth year, your injuries were still severe, and you could only recover to the early Spirit Transformation stage.] [This made you frown deeply, even considering the idea of dispersing your cultivation and starting over.] [After all, this recovery speed was even slower than starting cultivation anew!][Of course, you dismissed this thought as soon as it arose.] [Having received an Immortal Dao inheritance, you were no longer a novice in cultivation and knew clearly that dispersing your cultivation would damage your foundation.] [You would never again reach your former heights.] [In the nieth year, you looked at the two strands of white hair at your temples and let out a bitterugh.] [You were only a hundred and ten years old, which, given your cultivation, should still be considered youthful, yet you already had white hair¡ªthis was not normal.] [But looking at your appearance, you weren''t too surprised.] [After all, Shen Wutian had extracted arge amount of your blood essence and soul.] [This would naturally have a severe impact on your lifespan.] [In truth, you had long suspected this but pretended not to know, clinging to a sliver of hope.] [You thought perhaps the "Death Substitute Doll" talent would help eliminate these hidden dangers!] [But now it seemed, clearly not.] [The "Death Substitute Doll" talent, true to its name, could only substitute for death.] [You nced at the wooden hut you had lived in for decades, took a deep breath, and sighed, "I can''t keep hiding!"] [Initially, you thought you could hide and recover, regaining your strength before investigating the situation here.] [If it was too dangerous, you would just keep hiding and cultivate until the end of your lifespan.] [You knew clearly that you were in a simtion; although the truth was important, you cared more about increasing your strength.] [But once white hair appeared at your temples, you felt your lifespan might not be enough to support your recovery, let alone further cultivation.] [You knew you couldn''t keep hiding; you needed to take risks and act more aggressively.] [Whether it was seeking heavenly materials and earthly treasures to increase your lifespan or exploring to find out where you were, you had to go out.] [Otherwise, hiding would just waste the remaining simtion time.] [After making your decision, you no longer hesitated and turned to walk into the distance.] [In the ny-first year, you arrived outside the Cangyun Sect.] [Originally, it wouldn''t have taken you this long to reach the Cangyun Sect.] [But during this year, you visited many pharmacies and auction houses along the way, hoping to find some heavenly materials and earthly treasures useful to you.] [Whether it was for restoring blood essence, repairing the soul, or increasing lifespan, these treasures would be greatly beneficial to you.] [Unfortunately, these types of heavenly materials and earthly treasures were rare, and you found none.] [You weren''t disappointed by this, as you had only been trying your luck from the start.] [Now, you came to the Cangyun Sect with a simr purpose.] [After all, the Cangyun Sect was thergest sect in the area, and the probability of finding these treasures here was the highest.] [But how could you obtain heavenly materials and earthly treasures from the Cangyun Sect?] [No, you couldn''t even get into the Cangyun Sect right now.] [Let alone scheme for their treasures.] [However, you were quite lucky; after only a few days of lingering outside the Cangyun Sect, you learned that in three months, they would be recruiting new disciples.] [You thought you could sneak in then.] [Three months passed in the blink of an eye, and you sessfully joined the Cangyun Sect.] [However, you did not join as a disciple.] [Your age had already exceeded the range for disciple recruitment at the Cangyun Sect.] [So, if not as a disciple, how did you get into the Cangyun Sect?] [You nced at the somewhat shy fairy sister beside you and silently recited, "Dao De Jing!"] [You really didn''t mean to; you just casually chatted a bit, and she came to you on her own.] [Yes, that''s what you thought.] [As for the "Love Saint" talent? What is that? You selectively forgot about it, firmly refusing to acknowledge you had used this talent.] [Afterward, you sessfully settled in the Cangyun Sect as Xia Zhishan''s Daopanion!] [This three-thousand-year-old fairy, Xia Zhishan, was an elder of the Cangyun Sect, with a high status and power at the ninth level of Tribtion Crossing.] [Upon learning of your severe injuries, she used her position to provide you with many treasures.] [In the ny-fifth year, the white hair at your temples hadpletely disappeared.] [You could now exert the peak power of the Spirit Transformation stage.] [However, you felt that further recovery was bing increasingly difficult.] [In truth, there was no other way; over the past few years, you had obtained many treasures from Xia Zhishan that increased lifespan and restored blood essence.] [But there were no treasures to heal soul injuries.] [Half of your injuries were from the soul; without the corresponding treasures, relying on time to slowly restore soul power naturally made it difficult to recover your cultivation.] [Over these years, you also asked Xia Zhishan which region of the Nine Mystic Realm this ce belonged to.] [But Xia Zhishan''s answer surprised you.] [She said this was the Divine Martial Continent, a whole entity, and they divided territories by sects, without any regional divisions.] [Her answer made you ponder for a long time.] [Later, you also inquired about the Immortal Realm, but Xia Zhishan said she didn''t know what the Immortal Realm was!] [In the end, you stopped exploring further, thinking you might have been wrong from the start.] [You weren''t transported out of the Southern Regions but directly out of the Nine Mystic Realm, perhaps even far from the Immortal Realm.] [However, you thought this might be for the best, as it kept you farther from the powerful beings of the Immortal Realm, making it safer.] [This way, as long as you didn''t deliberately cause trouble, once you healed your injuries, wouldn''t you be able to simte for eternity?] [You couldn''t help but start fantasizing that after this simtion, you might be invincible.] Chapter 97: The big tiger delivers medicine, a change is about to happen [Year 100, your vital essence was depleted, but Xia Zhishan used heavenly treasures to almostpletely restore it.] [However, the damage to your soul is still recovering slowly, causing your cultivation to be stuck at the peak of Spirit Transformation, unable to advance to a higher level.] [Nevertheless, you are no longer overly worried. After all, the replenishment of your vital essence has almost restored your lifespan.] [As long as your lifespan is sufficient, you believe that one day, your soul power will fully recover.] [Besides, you now know that this ce is far from the Immortal Realm, so there''s no need to panic.] [In the same year, Liang Dahu and Ye Xiaoqing came to visit you together.] [By this time, they had already expressed their feelings for each other and were now a couple.] [In fact, shortly after you arrived at the Cangyun Sect, Dahu and Xiaoqing already knew about you, but at that time, they were only Inner Sect Disciples and couldn''t enter the elders'' residence.] [But now it''s different. After years of cultivation, they have be personal disciples of the Cangyun Sect.][They now have the authority to visit the elders'' residence.] [When Dahu saw you, he knelt down immediately to express his gratitude.] [He said that not only did you teach him the Dao, but you also gave him the courage to confess to his beloved.] [He solemnly swore that even though you were unwilling to take him as a disciple, he would always consider himself your student.] [Having lived with Dahu for a long time, you know he''s as stubborn as a mule and can only nod helplessly.] [After a brief reunion, Dahu and Xiaoqing bid you farewell.] [You returned to your peaceful recuperation.] [Hmm? Very peaceful, except for asionally keepingpany with the three-thousand-year-old fairy sister, Xia Zhishan.] [In the blink of an eye, decades passed.] [Year 180, Dahu, covered in blood, ran to you with a smile and handed you a Soul Condensing Flower.] [Soul Condensing Flower is a rare treasure that can repair the soul, something one can onlye across by chance.] [You looked at the Soul Condensing Flower in your hand and then at Dahu''s miserable appearance. You sighed and told him not to do this again, saying your injuries were not serious.] [You didn''t know how Dahu found out you needed heavenly treasures to repair your soul, but you knew that even Xia Zhishan, at the ninth level of Tribtion Crossing, didn''t have such a treasure.] [You couldn''t imagine how difficult it must have been for Liang Dahu, who was only at the True Core Realm, to find and obtain it.] [Besides luck, he must have gone through countless life-and-death battles.] [Actually, there was no need to guess. From Dahu''s blood-soaked state, you could tell.] [Dahu didn''t respond to your advice. He just smiled, handed you the Soul Condensing Flower, and left alone.] [You felt helpless, knowing that this stubborn mule probably didn''t listen!] [After that, every few decades, Dahu would bring you some herbs to repair your soul.] [This sped up the recovery of your soul injuries significantly.] [Time flowed like water, and in the blink of an eye, hundreds of years passed.] [Year 600, your soul injuries were not fully healed but had recovered about eighty to ny percent.] [At this time, you could already disy the power of the fifth level of Body Integration in Immortal Dao and the fifth level of Immovable Realm in Martial Dao.] [This made you feel that you finally had some self-preservation ability.] [Over the centuries, Dahu''s cultivation had long surpassed yours, reaching the peak of the Transcendent Realm in Martial Dao.] [This was equivalent to the peak of the Great Ascension stage in Immortal Dao, and in terms ofbat power alone, Martial Dao was even stronger.] [This made Liang Dahu''s strengthparable to the older generation of powerhouses, and he was now a renowned Chosen on the Divine Martial Continent.] [Actually, you never expected Dahu to reach such a level in such a short time.] [You asked him if he had any opportunities, but Dahu always shook his head, saying no, he just cultivated and fought every day.] [You were puzzled untilter when you asked Dahu how he cultivated and fought, and you finally understood.] [It turned out that Dahu''s so-called cultivation was extreme body training every day, and his so-called battles always left him severely injured and on the brink of death.] [Such cultivation and battles meant he was constantly teetering on the edge of life and death. You couldn''t help but marvel that if Dahu didn''t be a strongman, who else could?] [When you first started the simtion, you also thought about using this method to cultivate, but unfortunately, being in the Southern Regions, you couldn''t be so ostentatious.] [Once exposed, there would be no chance for you to cultivate for a longer time.] [As for this time, forget it. You didn''t even want to recall it, as you were still recovering from severe injuries.] [As for whether to continue extreme cultivation after fully recovering, you decided to wait and see.] [After all, you are different from Dahu. You know you are in a simtion. If you risk your life to cultivate and actually lose it, it would reduce the simtion time and improve less.] [If not necessary, stable cultivation is actually the most cost-effective.] [Year 830, youughed heartily as your injuries finally fully healed.] [You had finally regained your full strength.] [Your Immortal Dao cultivation was now at the third level of the Great Ascension stage, and your Martial Dao had reached the first level of the Transcendent Realm.] [In the same year, Dahu and Ye Xiaoqing came to celebrate with you.] [Although their strength had already surpassed yours, they were still very respectful to you.] [After a brief reunion, you devoted yourself entirely to cultivation.] [Year 835, your Immortal Dao cultivation broke through to the fourth level of the Great Ascension stage.] [Even with the tenfold cultivation speed buff from being ate bloomer, it still took you four to five years to break through a small realm.] [You understood the reason well: the higher the realm, the slower the cultivation. This ismon knowledge among cultivators.] [Of course, your cultivation speed was already quite fastpared to ordinary people.] [Butpared to top geniuses like your father, there was still a considerable gap.] [Nheless, you were satisfied with yourself.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [Year 840, you noticed that Xia Zhishan often looked worried.] [You asked her what was wrong, but she didn''t say anything.] [Year 850, Xia Zhishan bid you farewell, saying she was going out for a few years and didn''t know when she would return, asking you to take care of yourself.] [You felt that something must have happened, but since Xia Zhishan was unwilling to say, you were helpless.] [This made you frown. No matter what the change was, you knew it wouldn''t be good for you.] [After all, the more stable the environment, the better for you to simte, develop, and cultivate.] [However, you also knew that stability was not something you could decide.] [You could only cultivate harder, striving to improve your strength before any changes urred.] Chapter 98: An inexplicable scene, has the Simulator encountered a BUG? [Five yearster, the Divine Martial Continent fell into chaos, and even someone as detached from worldly affairs as you had heard a bit about it.] [In the year 860, Liang Dahu and Ye Xiaoqing, covered in blood, found you. They wanted to take you away from here.] [After some inquiries, you learned that the Divine Martial Continent had been invaded several years ago.] [The experts from various major sects had been resisting on the front lines, but they were no match for the enemy.] [At this moment, the enemy had fully invaded the Divine Martial Continent.] [Sects like the Cangyun Sect had be primary targets for the enemy. Staying here would be extremely dangerous.] [It was only then that you realized Xia Zhishan''s farewell earlier must have been because she went to the front lines.] [Now that the enemy had invaded the Divine Martial Continent, she was likely in grave danger.] [Thinking of this, you felt a bit sad. After hundreds of years together, you had developed some feelings for this fairy sister who was thousands of years older than you.][However, you knew this was not the time to be emotional. Without asking further, you chose to leave the Cangyun Sect with Dahu and Xiaoqing, starting a life on the run.] [Years passed in the blink of an eye.] [During these years, the situation on the Divine Martial Continent worsened, and you, along with Dahu and Xiaoqing, were constantly hiding and fleeing.] [In the year 880, you were found by a group of enemies, leading to a fierce battle.] [The three of you fought and won, but each of you was seriously injured.] [In the year 890, over the past ten years, encounters with the enemy became more frequent.] [Fortunately, none of you were weaklings anymore. Although you got injured each time, you always managed to escape.] [In the year 900, you encountered the enemy again.]n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [This time, the enemy was even stronger, with dozens of experts at the ninth level of Tribtion Crossing.] [At this moment, you only had the eighth level of the Mahayana Realm in Immortal Dao cultivation and the first level of the Transcendent Realm in Martial Dao cultivation.] [However, you practiced the Divine Dao, allowing you to convert spiritual energy and primordial energy. With your killing intent and fullbat power, you could match experts at the sixth or seventh level of Tribtion Crossing.] [Butpared to the ninth level of Tribtion Crossing, you were stillcking.] [As for Liang Dahu and Ye Xiaoqing, they were both stronger than you.] [After all, during the hundreds of years you spent recovering from injuries, they had been rapidly advancing, while you remained stagnant.] [Dahu''s strength had now reached the seventh level of Semi-Saint in Martial Dao.] [This corresponded to the seventh level of Tribtion Crossing, and with the strongerbat power of Martial Dao, Dahu could barely fight against experts at the ninth level of Tribtion Crossing.] [Ye Xiaoqing was simr. Her talent in Immortal Dao was strong, and she was now an expert at the eighth level of Tribtion Crossing. With her exceptionalprehension, she could easily wield various spells and fight above her level.] [If they didn''t care about you and only focused on escaping, they would have had a chance.] [However, they were people of deep feelings and loyalty, and had no intention of abandoning you.] [The battle quickly erupted, and you fought against many with few, and the weak against the strong.] [Before long, even with Dahu and Xiaoqing covering you, you sustained serious injuries.] [Half a dayter, you were captured while severely injured.] [Dahu and Xiaoqing still wanted to save you, but you knew it was hopeless.] [You knew there was no way out for you.] [Looking at the anxious pair, you felt touched and reluctant. Finally, you smiled at them and softly said, "See you in another life!"] [As soon as you finished speaking, you self-destructed. Due to your special Nascent Soul, the explosion was powerful, taking several experts at the ninth level of Tribtion Crossing with you.] [You died at the age of 920!] [This simtion has ended.] [In this simtion, you can exchange two rewards: Love Saint (Talent) and Divine Dao Cultivation.] [Love Saint (Talent)]: Costs 100 origin values. [Divine Dao Cultivation]: Costs 5000 origin values; includes Immortal Dao cultivation (eighth level of the Mahayana Realm) and Martial Dao cultivation (first level of the Transcendent Realm). Jiang Yifeng saw the words indicating the end of the simtion. He was still somewhat in shock. He had thought this simtion wouldst a long time. But he hadn''t expected the sudden turn of events. Although this simtionsted long, there were only two rewards to exchange, making the choice easy. Of course, this was also because most of the time in this simtion was spent healing, with little actual cultivation. Jiang Yifeng didn''t hesitate and directly exchanged the rewards. [Ding: Acquired Love Saint (Talent), deducting 100 origin values, remaining origin values.] [Immortal Dao cultivation sessfully upgraded, deducting 5000 origin values, remaining origin values.] Jiang Yifeng didn''t feel much change from the talent upgrade. But he did feel the difference in his cultivation improvement this time. No, Jiang Yifeng''s pupils slightly widened. It wasn''t just the cultivation improvement; he felt many fragmented images shing through his mind. Not long after, Jiang Yifeng''s cultivation upgrade wasplete. The fragmented images in his mind alsopletely disappeared. But a deep sense of doubt remained buried in Jiang Yifeng''s heart. Unable to figure it out, Jiang Yifeng decided to directly ask the simtor. After all, this happened when he exchanged for cultivation, and he suspected it might be a bug in the simtor, which could cause him trouble. "Simtor, what''s going on? Why did I see non-existent images and memories in my mind?" The simtor did not respond. Jiang Yifeng was persistent, repeatedly asking, even cursing the simtor. Unfortunately, it was useless. After a long time, Jiang Yifeng seemed a bit tired and stopped questioning the fragmented images. However, he kept wondering about the cause of those images in his mind. "Could it be my own memories?" "No, that''s not right." Jiang Yifeng shook his head. He was certain his memories were intact and had never been lost. "Could it be memories from a past life?" That didn''t seem right either. Jiang Yifeng knew his past life was on a blue, without the scenes that had just appeared. Moreover, the key point was that in those images, he seemed to see Dahu and Xiaoqing. Why did he feel that the people in those images were Dahu and Xiaoqing? He had only seen their names in the simtion. Even if it were memories from a past life, it wouldn''t coincidentally match the names in the simtion! After a long time, he stopped thinking about it. He concluded it must be a bug in the simtor. This thing wouldn''t admit it. Finally, Jiang Yifeng turned to ask the simtor about the conditions for the next upgrade. Jiang Yifeng thought that with his cultivation having made another major breakthrough, he might be able to upgrade the simtor again. This time, the simtor didn''t y dead but directly answered his question. [Ding: To upgrade the simtor to the next version, the host needs to reach the Immortal Realm and have 10 million origin values.] "I..." Jiang Yifeng was speechless. This damn thing was not only getting more expensive but also required an absurdly high cultivation level! Chapter 99: Invincible? The inflated Jiang Yifeng, "Forget it, forget it." Jiang Yifengforted himself inwardly. After all, he still had to rely on the simtor, so he decided not to argue with it. The rewards from this simtion were all redeemed, and it was confirmed that the upgrade conditions for the simtor couldn''t be met. Jiang Yifeng began to analyze the information obtained from this simtion. ording to this simtion, he learned that the sect master of the Immortal Arrival Sect, Shen Wuyou, was merely an avatar. The true body was Shen Wutian, who had lived for nearly a million years. Shen Wutian was an unparalleled powerhouse, even the Eye of Insight couldn''t see through him. However, he was also controlled by a mighty being from the Immortal Realm. He dared not leave the headquarters of the Immortal Arrival Sect, which was the ancient mountain range observed from the Desert of Death. ording to Shen Wutian himself, that ce could temporarily free him from the control of the mighty being. Moreover, Shen Wutian had an additional n: he wanted to use dark arts to break through his realm and escape the control of the mighty being. By this calction, wasn''t it likely that Shen Wutian was about to reach the same realm as the mighty being from the Immortal Realm?Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng suddenly felt that he might be in great danger. If Shen Wutian found out that he was cultivating the Divine Dao, which was the most crucial part of Shen Wutian''s dark arts, he would definitely attract Shen Wutian''s attention. He would send arge number of people to capture him. However, Jiang Yifeng also thought that once Shen Wutian left the ancient remnants, he would be controlled by the mighty being from the Immortal Realm and lose his self-awareness. In this way, the Immortal Arrival Sect seemed not so fearsome after all. After all, from the previous simtions, it was clear that the other members of the Immortal Arrival Sect couldn''t see that he was cultivating the Divine Dao. Thinking this way, as long as he didn''t recklessly join the Immortal Arrival Sect in reality, it seemed there was nothing to fear. This thought made Jiang Yifeng breathe a sigh of relief. Moreover, from the multiple previous simtions, he already knew that as long as no one in the Southern Regions achieved Tribtion Crossing and ascended, causing a celestial phenomenon, those mighty beings from the Immortal Realm would basically not take action. It seemed that the immortals from the Immortal Realm did not constantly monitor the Southern Regions but only investigated when certain disturbances urred. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng''s lips curled slightly, and he muttered to himself. "So, I''m invincible?" He felt that the current Southern Regions were his domain, his heart swelling with pride, eager to conquer all. After all, from this simtion, it showed that his current cultivation could rival experts at the sixth or seventh level of Tribtion Crossing. In the current Southern Regions, apart from those at the headquarters of the Immortal Arrival Sect who were cultivating dark arts for Shen Wutian at the ninth level of Tribtion Crossing, only Old Li from Spine Mountain could match him. He just wanted to shout, "Who else?" Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng thought of the person who had warned him after he abolished his father''s Qi Sea in a previous simtion. He also thought of the Lady in Red who had achieved Dao and ascended in another simtion. Instantly, Jiang Yifeng became timid again.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om Although he felt that these people probably wouldn''t take action against him. After all, they hadn''t done so in the simtions. But what if? "Forget it, better toy low." Jiang Yifeng decided it was best not to get carried away. So, he continued to analyze the situation from this simtion. From the headquarters of the Immortal Arrival Sect, he had learned that the Southern Regions were indeed being manipted by two mighty beings from the Immortal Realm. But he didn''t know the specifics of why they were setting up this maniption or what it was for. Also, he had always been curious about Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya, and it was now almost certain that these two seniors had escaped from the Southern Regions. Previous spections or information might not have been urate. From the murals in this simtion, it could be seen that the two mighty beings from the Immortal Realm began to pay special attention to the Southern Regions because these two seniors had broken the formation. However, this raised new doubts for Jiang Yifeng. Since the mighty beings from the Immortal Realm initially didn''t pay special attention to the Southern Regions, why set up a sealing formation outside the Southern Regions? Or was it that they were initially too arrogant, thinking no one could break the sealing formation? Or was there another reason? Jiang Yifeng couldn''t figure out these questions for now. And what was the Divine Martial Continent? Why was the Divine Martial Continent invaded? Of course, Jiang Yifeng only thought about this in passing, feeling it wasn''t very important. After all, he felt it wasn''t even in the same realm, so it wouldn''t affect him for now. After summarizing the simtion, Jiang Yifeng began to consider real-world matters. In reality, because he had previously exchanged mountains for energy value on arge scale, the Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect had already started searching nearby cities from Bright Moon City. Jiang Yifeng estimated that it might not take two days for those Immortal ves to reach Green Hills City. Should he take some action? Actually, Jiang Yifeng felt that it didn''t matter if he didn''t take action. After all, from the simtion, it was clear that with his current fullbat power, he could already rival experts at the sixth or seventh level of Tribtion Crossing. The current Immortal Arrival Sect posed no threat to him. However, if a great battle broke out in Green Hills City, his Jiang Family, and his father Jiang Fushan, might get implicated. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng decided it was best to lure the people of the Immortal Arrival Sect away. That night, he flew out of Green Hills City. Due to his increased strength, Jiang Yifeng''s flying speed was several times faster than before. In just five days, multiple mountain copses and disappearances urred in various ces in the Southern Regions. The Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect were shocked and searched everywhere for the culprit. Meanwhile, the true instigator had already returned to the Jiang Family Mansion in Green Hills City. Actually, if it were only about increased cultivation, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t have acted so swiftly. After all, some ces were hundreds of thousands of kilometers away from Green Hills City. The reason he could do this now was thanks to the teleportation array disks he had prepared earlier. With over a thousand teleportation array disks, each modified to transport nearly ten thousand kilometers, these disks allowed Jiang Yifeng to traverse millions of kilometers. However, these teleportation array disks were random, otherwise, Jiang Yifeng could have caused even more chaos. Returning to the Jiang Family Mansion, Jiang Yifeng didn''t go to the Pleasure House to listen to music. Although listening to music was enjoyable, multiple simtions had linked him with Qiu Zhixuan. Although he didn''t have the memories from the simtions, he still felt awkward facing Qiu Zhixuan. Of course, the key point was that with his current strength, he no longer needed to pretend. In the following days, Jiang Yifeng busied himself with something in the Jiang Family Mansion. The servants found it all very puzzling. Jiang Yifeng didn''t exin because he was setting up a formation. Now that he had the power to protect himself, he had caused amotion to prevent the Immortal ves froming to Green Hills City, not out of fear. The key was that if a battle broke out, the aftermath would definitely affect his family. They were all mortals and couldn''t withstand it. Now that he had some free time, Jiang Yifeng nned to set up a defensive formation for the Jiang Family Mansion. Once the Immortal ves from the Immortal Arrival Sect came in the future, he wouldn''t need to hide anymore. Thinking of this, he felt a bit excited. After painstakingly simting and improving his strength, he had been holding back for a long time. Two days passed in the blink of an eye. Jiang Yifeng''s defensive formation was still notpleted. But at this time, the simtion count had refreshed. He nced at the eighth-grade top-tier formation he was setting up, hesitated for a moment, and returned to his room. He felt that the defensive formation for the Jiang Family Mansion was veryplex and couldn''t bepleted in just a few days. Moreover, there was currently no danger. It was better to simte first. So, after returning to his room, he silently chanted. "Start simtion!" Chapter 100: Was beaten by Bai Ruoxue [Simtion attempt consumed: 1, remaining attempts: 0] [Extracting Purple Talent costs 100 Origin Values, chance-based extraction of Orange Talent costs 1000 Origin Values. Please choose!] "Choose chance-based extraction of Orange Talent." [Ding, 1000 Origin Values deducted, talent is being randomly extracted, remaining Origin Values.] [Congrattions, Host, you have obtained the Orange Talent: Taotie Divine Body.] [Taotie Divine Body]: You possess the power of devouring, allowing you to enhance yourself by consuming all things. (Note: Devouring things beyond your capacity may cause your body to explode!) [You have obtained a one-time ability: Face-to-Face.] [Face-to-Face]: By silently reciting someone''s name in your heart, you will appear before them; can only be used once. (Note: Only works for people you''ve met in the same time-space continuum.)"Awesome!" Jiang Yifeng was overjoyed as he looked at the talent and one-time ability he had drawn this time. These effects were incredibly powerful. The function of the Taotie Divine Body was self-exnatory: eat to be stronger. Although the description didn''t specify whether it enhanced Martial Dao or Immortal Dao, Jiang Yifeng believed it was more likely to enhance Martial Dao. After all, he had previously obtained simr talents, like the Big Eater talent, which also enhanced Martial Dao. However, that talent had too low a ceiling, so he hadn''t chosen to redeem it at the time. Jiang Yifeng felt that the Taotie Divine Body should be an advanced version of the Big Eater talent. But to be sure, he would need to test it in the simtion. The one-time ability "Face-to-Face" also came at the perfect time. He was currently troubled about how to escape the Southern Regions in this simtion. After all, the path to joining the Immortal Arrival Sect had be difficult. Given his current strength, he could easily be exposed. Even if Qiu Kuang introduced him to the Immortal Arrival Sect for Qiu Zhixuan''s sake, there could still beplications with Shen Wuyou. And if he had to participate in the elder assessment again and encountered Shen Wutian, he wouldn''t have a Death Substitute Doll this time and wouldn''t be able to escape! Now, this one-time ability had opened up many possibilities for him. He thought he could use this ability to escape the Southern Regions. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t wait to see the developments in the simtion. However, the simtor''s prompts hadn''t finished yet, and more text quickly appeared. [Prompt: Do you want to carry talents from the Talent Pool?] [Talent Pool: Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root, Absolute Rationality.] "Don''t take them, don''t take them!" Jiang Yifeng immediately refused. After thest simtion ended, he hadn''t put the Child of Fortune talent back into the Talent Pool. Now, the two talents in the Talent Pool were either useless or too cold and emotionless; he didn''t want to take either. After making his choice, Jiang Yifeng quickly looked at the developments in the simtor. [Simtion attempt 25 begins!] [You realize you have entered the simtion.] [Day 1: You visit every restaurant in Green Hills City, eating voraciously to test the effects of the Taotie Divine Body.] [Unfortunately, your cultivation is already very high, and mundane food cannot provide you with any enhancement.] [Day 2: You leave Green Hills City and head to the Evergreen Mountain Range.] [Since your Taotie Divine Body cannot enhance your strength by consuming mundane items, you decide to go to the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple to wait for Bai Ruoxue.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [After all, the one-time ability Face-to-Face requires you to have met the person in the same time-space continuum.] [If you want to use this one-time ability to leave the Southern Regions, Bai Ruoxue is definitely one of your targets.] [After arriving at the Evergreen Mountain Range, you clear the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple and begin cultivating Immortal Dao.] [You need to wait for Bai Ruoxue to appear. Using the Taotie Divine Body to devour extraordinary items is not realistic.] [In the Southern Regions, extraordinary items do exist, but devouring each one carries a certain risk.] [You think it''s better to prepare an escape route before starting your n.] [Year 1: While cultivating Immortal Dao, you trigger the talent Random Enlightenment, gaining a tenfold cultivation speed buff. Your thoughts be more active.] [This enlightenmentsts for a full 16 months, allowing your Immortal Dao cultivation to break through to the ninthyer of the Mahayana Realm.] [Based on the tenfold cultivation effect, 16 months of enlightenment is equivalent to several years.] [Normally, this amount of time wouldn''t be enough for you to break through to the ninthyer of the Mahayana Realm.] [But you used the devouring power of the Taotie Divine Body.] [Indeed, the Taotie Divine Body doesn''t just enhance Martial Dao.] [It can also devour Spirit Stones to elerate Immortal Dao cultivation.] [This is the conclusion you reached after experimentation.] [You directly swallowed Spirit Stones and then used the Devouring Spirit Art to absorb and refine them, increasing your cultivation speed several times over.] [At this point, more than two years have passed in the simtion.] [Six monthster, while cultivating, you sense someone approaching rapidly.] [After roughly calcting the time, you believe it must be Bai Ruoxue.] [In an instant, you see a white-robed woman appear above the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple.] [After Bai Ruoxue descends, she keeps a close eye on you, seeing through your cultivation level and knowing you are only at the ninthyer of the Mahayana Realm.] [However, she feels a slight sense of threat from you.] [This makes her wary and unable to ignore you.] [You both stare at each other, falling into a standoff.] [Having watched multiple simtions, you habitually think Bai Ruoxue will check if you are an Immortal ve upon seeing you.] [Then, the plot would proceed from there.] [This situation was unexpected.] [But you quickly adapt.] [You decide to speak first, exining that you are not an Immortal ve, hoping to get closer to Bai Ruoxue.] [However, as soon as you make a move, Bai Ruoxue attacks you.] [You are shocked and instinctively defend yourself.] [Even though your Immortal Dao has broken through and yourbat power has increased, you are still suppressed by Bai Ruoxue, who is at the eighthyer of Tribtion Crossing.] [You try to escape but can''t, so you focus on avoiding critical hits.] [After a long time, you are bound and thrown to the ground. Bai Ruoxue looks down at you, asking who you are.] [You smile bitterly. If you had known Bai Ruoxue wouldn''t kill you immediately and would just restrain you, you would have surrendered without resistance and avoided a beating.] [Of course, you didn''t dare to gamble. Each simtion is different, and when Bai Ruoxue suddenly attacked, you really thought she would kill you.] [That''s why you resisted.] [Facing Bai Ruoxue''s questioning, you give the prepared exnation.] [You say you are a rogue cultivator who obtained an Immortal Dao inheritance and are just resting here temporarily.] [You describe your encounter with Bai Ruoxue as a coincidence.] [Bai Ruoxue stares at you for a long time, then asks if you know about the past events in the Southern Regions.] [You know she sees your potential and wants to tell you about the Southern Regions'' past to use you to avenge her senior brother.] [But you already know more about those past events than she does.] [So, you nod and say that the Immortal Dao inheritance you received contains records of those events.] [After thinking for a moment, you ask Bai Ruoxue a question that has puzzled you for a long time.] Chapter 101: Introduction to the Law of Thunder [You ask her, "Is it really possible to leave the Southern Regions from the four fierce beast-guarded ces?"] [This question has always puzzled you.] [After all, except for the Endless Sea, you''ve actually left the other fierce beast-guarded ces in simtions.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [But those ces are either filled with murderous intent or are the Dragon Tomb. The only slightly better ce, the Great Wilderness, doesn''t belong to any other domain.] [Bai Ruoxue frowns upon hearing your question.] [After a moment of thought, she tells you that ording to records, all four fierce beast-guarded ces can indeed lead out of the Southern Regions to other domains.] [However, she hasn''t personally visited all of them.] [She entered the Southern Regions through the Endless Sea.] [Hearing this, you be somewhat skeptical of Bai Ruoxue''s records.][Without personal verification, you find it hard to trust.] [Three days pass in the blink of an eye, and Bai Ruoxue leaves.] [And you finally gain your freedom.] [Although Bai Ruoxue didn''t make things difficult for you these past few days, she didn''t seem to fully trust you either, keeping you bound with a magical artifact.] [It wasn''t until she left that she released you.] [This situation makes you sigh; this woman is truly fickle!] [In previous simtions, she even provided resources, took you as a disciple when she saw your talent, and led you to break through the Endless Sea.] [This time, despite your improved talent and strength, she didn''t trust you.] [But it doesn''t matter.] [After all, you''ve achieved your goal this time.] [As long as you''ve met Bai Ruoxue, you can use the one-time talent "Face-to-Face" at any time.] [When the dayes that you want to leave the Southern Regions, you can use this talent to appear directly in front of Bai Ruoxue!] [Thinking of this, you can''t help but smile.] [This time, you feel you can freely roam the Southern Regions.] [After all, you now have strength and backup ns; what can those Immortal ves do to you?] [In the third year, you brazenly rob Immortal ves everywhere, even single-handedly robbing several Spirit Stone mines of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [Your Spirit Stone reserves increase significantly.] [In the fourth year, your reputation spreads throughout the Southern Regions, and the cultivators of Spine Mountain seek you out for a powerful alliance.] [In the fifth year, you arrive at Spine Mountain and help its people set up high-grade Gathering Spirit Arrays.] [Your talent in Formation Dao amazes the people of Spine Mountain.] [In the sixth year, you ask Old Li to let you admire the formations left by Senior Lu Wuya!] [Your current strength and reputation make Old Li hesitate no longer; he takes you there directly.] [In the seventh year, you find the key ce where Senior Lu Wuya''s formation guides Heavenly Thunder.] [You set up an inverted Thunder Conduction Formation, guiding the Heavenly Thunder from beneath Spine Mountain.] [As soon as the underground Heavenly Thunder is drawn out, it strikes at you.] [You don''t hesitate, opening your mouth wide and swallowing it in one gulp!] [These Heavenly Thunders are all guided by your formation, their power within your calctions andpletely within your tolerance.] [As the Heavenly Thunder enters your body, your Taotie Divine Body activates instantly, rapidly refining it.] [After digesting one bolt of Heavenly Thunder, you frown slightly.] [The improvement isn''t as significant as you imagined.] [Although your Martial Dao has improved somewhat, it doesn''t seem as much as when you were struck by lightning and used the Yimu Divine Body to recover!] [What''s going on?] [Is it because your strength is higher now?] [You decide to experiment more.] [If it doesn''t work, you''ll stop eating and choose to be struck by lightning directly, using the Yimu Divine Body to recover.] [You continue to consume several bolts of Heavenly Thunder.] [You feel as if you''ve gained a different understanding of thunder.] [It seems you''re about to grasp the profoundws of thunder.] [At this moment, you suddenly remember that the Immortal Dao inheritance you obtained mentioned that after reaching the Immortal Realm, one primarily cultivatesws.] [Could it be that the Taotie Divine Body can helpprehendws? This possibility excites you.] [You know that if you canprehendws before bing an immortal, it would be of immense help to you.] [After all, you know that once someone in the Southern Regions crosses the tribtion to be an immortal, powerful beings will intervene.] [If yourbat strength isn''t strong enough, you wouldn''t know how to protect yourself when bing an immortal.] [Originally, you nned to enrich yourself during the Tribtion Crossing stage, filling all your shorings before crossing the tribtion to be an immortal.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng sees this and silently recites. "Start a ten-year deep simtion!" Since he canprehendws in the simtion, he thinks deep simtion is more worthwhile. Regardless of the origin values consumed, at least it can save a reward slot at the end of the simtion. [Ding, ten-year deep simtion starts, deducting origin values, remaining origin values.] In the blink of an eye, Jiang Yifeng appears in the simtion. He doesn''t hesitate and begins to devour the Heavenly Thunder drawn from underground. As the thunder enters his stomach, he hears a few "boom boom" sounds, feeling no difort. Simultaneously, a trace of insight about thunder appears in his mind. Although it''s just a trace, Jiang Yifeng can already confirm that the Taotie Divine Body can indeed help himprehend the Law of Thunder. Thus, he trains even more diligently. Every day, he devours the underground thunder of Spine Mountain without rest. He consumes at least three to five hundred bolts a day. Such desperate efforts yield significant results. Three years pass, and Jiang Yifeng feels he''s touched the threshold of the Law of Thunder. He thinks it won''t be long before he fully grasps it. By then, he can use the basic Law of Thunder against enemies, greatly enhancing hisbat strength. However, this kind of training also brings a slight side effect to Jiang Yifeng. For instance, his mouth is now a bit ck, and his speech is somewhat scorching. But none of this matters. Jiang Yifeng doesn''t mind at all. Time passes day by day. Five more years go by in the blink of an eye. At this point, Jiang Yifeng''sprehension of the Law of Thunder finally reaches the entry level. This took more time than he originally anticipated. The closer he got to the threshold, the harder it became to improve. Until now, Jiang Yifeng can no longer make any progress. He thinks it might be due to his insufficient strength and the thunder he devoured not being strong enough. However, with such improvement, he is quite satisfied. He doesn''t n to risk devouring thunder beyond his limits. Since he can''t further improve the Law of Thunder, Jiang Yifeng doesn''t want to waste the deep simtion time. He turns to study the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya. In previous simtions, although he studied it, he didn''t fully understand it due to his insufficient formation skills. Now that he is an eighth-grade Formation Master, much improved from before, he is sure to gain new insights this time. Chapter 102: I want to taste the flavor of dragon meat [Ding, deep simtion ended.] Two years passed quickly. Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness returned to reality. He kept savoring the gains from this deep simtion. Feeling that he had benefited immensely.N?v(el)B\\jnn This deep simtion not only allowed him toprehend the Law of Thunder (entry level), but also significantly improved his Formation Dao. He felt that he was now closer to bing a ninth-grade Formation Master. This made Jiang Yifeng wonder if he should continue with the deep simtion. In the end, he gave up on that option.To improve his Formation Dao, he could simte anytime in the future. But this simtion had the one-time talent "Face-to-Face." This was a crucial talent for survival and escaping the Southern Regions. Jiang Yifeng felt he couldn''t waste it easily and needed to make more attempts. So he continued to look at the Simtion Panel. [You were momentarily dazed, realizing you had lost a segment of your memory.] [You understood that your real self must have entered the deep simtion.] [You searched around and indeed found a notebook that said, "Ten years have passed."] [You understood this was a hint left for you.] [You stared at the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya for a long time.] [You wondered if your current formation skills were enough to repair it alone.] [After a long time, you concluded that it wasn''t possible.] [After pondering for a moment, you left the formation and found Old Li, telling him about the formation''s problem.] [You wanted to try again, to see if the people of Spine Mountain could help resolve the Heavenly Thunder beneath the formation.] [Old Li wasn''t too surprised by your words, as he had long sensed something was wrong with the formation.] [He just didn''t know what the problem was and didn''t dare to act rashly.] [After hesitating for a moment, he told you that this was a big matter and he couldn''t decide alone; he needed to discuss it with the people of Spine Mountain.] [However, he assured you that he would do his best to facilitate this.] [At just over thirty years old, you had such strength that Old Li fully believed in your talent.] [He thought you were a peerless Chosen like Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya.] [Since you wanted to repair the formation, Old Li was willing to apany you in trying.] [A few dayster, with Old Li''s efforts and discussions with many cultivators of Spine Mountain, everyone temporarily agreed with your proposal.] [Not everyone among them believed your words.] [But since you proposed it, they wanted you to prove whether there was indeed a problem with the formation.] [Naturally, you had no reason to refuse.] [After all, proving it wasn''t difficult as long as they didn''t obstruct you.] [You led Old Li and the cultivators of Spine Mountain into the formation left by Lu Wuya.] [You found the location of the underground Heavenly Thunder and began setting up an inverted Thunder Conduction Formation.] [The people of Spine Mountain were nervous but didn''t stop you.] [This made you sigh, realizing that many problems couldn''t be solved simply due to ack of strength!] [In previous simtions, whenever you proposed tampering with the formation, the cultivators of Spine Mountain would outright refuse.] [They were even wary of you, not allowing you to approach the formation again.] [But this time, with the same issue, they chose to observe because you were stronger.] [Soon, the Thunder Conduction Formation was set up.] [Bolts of Heavenly Thunder surged from the ground.] [This shocked the people of Spine Mountain; they hadn''t expected there to be Heavenly Thunder underground.] [In their daze, you shouted for everyone to adjust their states and absorb the Heavenly Thunder.] [You told them that if the Heavenly Thunder beneath the ground wasn''t cleared, the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya wouldn''tst long.] [Hearing this, the people of Spine Mountain rushed towards the Heavenly Thunder you had drawn out.] [They used their bodies to directly absorb and refine the Heavenly Thunder.] [In the following days, you set up one inverted Thunder Conduction Formation after another.] [You adjusted the strength of the Heavenly Thunder drawn out by these formations ording to the refining abilities of each individual.] [In the blink of an eye, half a year passed, and many capable cultivators of Spine Mountain joined the effort to refine the Heavenly Thunder.] [They all knew that the formation was crucial for everyone''s survival; if it copsed, no one would survive.] [The Heavenly Thunder beneath Spine Mountain was being consumed in an orderly manner.] [But your expression wasn''t good; seeing the speed at which these people were consuming the Heavenly Thunder, you already knew the oue.] [The cultivators of Spine Mountain were not martial artists; their speed in consuming the Heavenly Thunder was very slow.] [And there was too much Heavenly Thunder underground, umted over nearly a million years.] [You had no better solution for this.] [So, you didn''t join the team consuming the Heavenly Thunder but started thinking about other ns.] [After setting everything up, you found an excuse to leave Spine Mountain.] [In the eighteenth year, you began attacking multiple spirit mines of the Immortal Arrival Sect, robbing spirit stones.] [In the twenty-second year, you returned to Spine Mountain with arge amount of spirit stones and handed them to your father, Jiang Fushan.] [You instructed him to cultivate diligently but not to break through to the Immortal Realm.] [Indeed, without your intervention, your father Jiang Fushan had already stepped into the path of cultivation a few years ago and arrived at Spine Mountain.] [Your father Jiang Fushan, touched by your gesture, felt that you had grown up and were now able to honor him.] [He deeply remembered your words, even though he didn''t understand your intention, he felt that as your father, he should fulfill your wish.] [Besides giving your father arge amount of spirit stones, you also handed a significant amount to Old Li.] [You asked him to distribute them among the people of Spine Mountain.] [Your n was simple; you were certain that the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya would eventually copse, so you aimed to enhance everyone''s strength in Spine Mountain.] [You continued to let them refine the Heavenly Thunder to strengthen their bodies while you plundered resources to quickly elevate their cultivation levels.] [Once you felt that everyone couldn''t hold on any longer, you would lead them to break through the Desert of Death.] [Of course, you didn''t inform the others in Spine Mountain about this.] [It wasn''t that you didn''t trust them, but you felt that revealing the inevitable copse of the formation might demoralize the cultivators.] [This would be detrimental to their improvement.] [After all, ording to your n, the stronger they were, the more demonic pythons they could kill when breaking through the Desert of Death.] [With your Taotie Divine Body, you were curious about how delicious roasted demonic python would be.] [If possible, you even wanted to know the taste of dragon meat.] Chapter 103: Little Brats, you are surrounded by me [In the twenty-third year, you left Spine Mountain once again, heading directly to the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [You wanted to use the Taotie Divine Body to see if you could devour Killing Intent.] [After some experimentation, you concluded that it was possible to devour it, but the effect was not good.] [In fact, it had a counterproductive effect. After devouring the Killing Intent, the sense of brutality was even more severe than being eroded by it.] [You thought that if you could deepen your understanding of Killing Intent and find a ce with even more intense Killing Intent toprehend and improve, using the Taotie Divine Body to devour it might be effective.] [But for now, this devouring power was of no use to you.] [You stood in front of the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords, looking up at the sky, lost in thought.] [It was still early in this simtion, and you were considering whether to enhance your Killing Intent.] [Soon, you reached a conclusion.][You felt that your current cultivation was not strong enough, and enhancing Killing Intent could wait until after the Tribtion Crossing stage.] [For now, you should continue to improve your cultivation.] [After all, you still had a craving for dragon meat.] [If your cultivation improved significantly, you could team up with your father, Jiang Fushan, to y a dragon when the people of Spine Mountain force their way into the Desert of Death.] [With that thought, you no longer hesitated.] [In the twenty-fourth year, you began to fully focus on improving your Martial Dao.] [In fact, when you devoured the Heavenly Thunder beneath Spine Mountain earlier, your Martial Dao had already reached the fourth level of the Transcendent Realm.] [However, this time, you did not go into seclusion for cultivation.] [Instead, you started your career as a bandit.] [With the Taotie Divine Body, using eating to improve was certainly faster than bitter cultivation in seclusion.] [As for your targets, naturally, it was the unfortunate Immortal Arrival Sect.] [The Immortal Arrival Sect had been established for nearly a million years, and the resources of the entire Southern Regions were in their hands.] [Various heavenly materials and earthly treasures, as well as demonic beast flesh and blood, were quite abundant.] [And all of this became your target.] [In the twenty-fifth year, after extensive investigation, you found a small branch of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [There was an elder at the third level of Tribtion Crossing stationed there, and without hesitation, youunched a surprise attack.] [With one move of the Silent Destruction Fist, you sted the elder to death.] [You ransacked the small branch, obtaining arge amount of resources.] [Afterwards, you hid and devoured all the resources that could enhance your Martial Dao through the Taotie Divine Body.] [In the twenty-sixth year, your Martial Dao cultivation sessfully broke through to the fifth level of the Transcendent Realm.] [Improving one small realm in a year was something you had never dared to imagine before.] [So, you decided to go big and strong, and struck again.] [In the twenty-seventh year, you robbed another small branch of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [In the twenty-eighth year, your Martial Dao cultivation broke through to the sixth level of the Transcendent Realm.] [In the twenty-ninth year, you prepared to rob the Immortal Arrival Sect again.] [But after some investigation, you found that the small branches of the Immortal Arrival Sect had all increased their manpower.] [Each branch now had several elders at the Tribtion Crossing stage guarding them.] [This significantly reduced your chances of sess.] [After all, although your currentbat power could rival a seventhyer Tribtion Crossing expert, your speed was not faster than that of a Tribtion Crossing expert.] [If someone managed to escape with the treasure while you were attacking, all your efforts would be in vain.] [Of course, you could also set up a formation to prevent them from escaping.] [But you thought that if you used a formation this time, they mighte up with countermeasures next time.] [After all, you knew the true foundation of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [After some thought, you decided to go for a big score.] [So, you set your sights on the capital of the Great Abyssal Kingdom.] [You knew that was thergest branch of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [It was personally guarded by Shen Wuyou, the puppet sect master.] [You thought there must be a lot of treasures there!] [With a smirk, you decided to go for it.] [After all, Shen Wuyou was only at the fifth level of Tribtion Crossing, and couldn''t even beat Old Li.] [You believed you could handle him without any problems.] [However, you did not act recklessly.] [You sneaked into the capital of the Great Abyssal Kingdom.] [After finding the branch of the Immortal Arrival Sect, you patiently set up formations around it.] [In the thirtieth year, you looked at thest formation talisman in your hand, a smile forming on your lips.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [As long as you inserted this formation talisman into the formation, a super trap formation would bepleted.] [At this moment, you could almost see the scene of obtaining arge number of treasures.] [In fact, you were only an eighth-grade Formation Master, and if you set up an ordinary eighth-grade trap formation, it could only trap those at the Great Ascension stage.] [But since you were setting up the formation, you naturally considered this issue.] [So, you set up not a single eighth-grade formation, but aposite trap formationposed of multiple eighth-grade formations.] [Such a formation took more time and effort, which is why it took you a year toplete.] [In fact, it was because the Immortal Arrival Sect was too arrogant. They focused their attention on other branches, and the defense of thisrgest branch was not as tight.] [Otherwise, even if they had patrolled more frequently, you wouldn''t have been able toplete such aplex formation.] [Now, thisposite trap formationposed of multiple eighth-grade formations, although still unable to trap Tribtion Crossing experts for long, you believed it could hold them for a day or two.] [With your current strength, as long as they couldn''t escape, two days would be enough for you to ransack this branch.] [Without hesitation, you inserted the formation talisman into the formation, and the formation instantly took shape.] [Immediately, outside the capital of the Great Abyssal Kingdom, light radiated in all directions, and a light shield enveloped it.] [Seeing this, countless figures flew out from the capital of the Great Abyssal Kingdom.] [Some were wearing official robes, some were holding spats, and some were dressed in rags, looking like beggars.] [You were not surprised by this, knowing that the people of the Immortal Arrival Sect had always hidden among mortals.] [And this so-called branch of the Immortal Arrival Sect actually included not only people from the Immortal Arrival Sect but also many clueless mortals.] [Usually, the people of the Immortal Arrival Sect would not easily reveal their identities.] [But now, they couldn''t care less.] [After all, they were all cultivators, and the moment the formation took shape, they knew an enemy had arrived.] [As for the mortals who saw them reveal their true selves, they could just kill themter.] [And you, thinking it was just a simtion, didn''t care about the lives of these mortals.] [So, without hesitation, you stepped into the formation you had set up.] [As soon as you entered the formation, you shouted: "Little brats of the Immortal Arrival Sect, you are surrounded by me!"] [As soon as you spoke, you felt great.] [You had been waiting for this moment to show off for a long time, and finally, you got your chance.] [At this moment, the Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect stared at you with vignt expressions.] [A great battle was about to break out, and the Immortal ves couldn''t hold back and attacked first!] [However, the strongest among them was only at the first level of Tribtion Crossing, and you easily ughtered them like a tiger among sheep.] [You began a massacre, and soon, your white clothes were stained with blood.] [You raised your de and had just killed an Immortal ve when you suddenly felt a warning in your heart!] Chapter 104: Face-to-Face, Goodbye Bai Ruoxue You quickly turned around, only to see several Immortal ves at the ninth level of Tribtion Crossing attacking you. You were shocked and somewhat puzzled. You remembered that in the previous simtions, there was no mention of any ninth-level Tribtion Crossing experts at this branch of the Immortal Arrival Sect. Could it be that these ninth-level Tribtion Crossing Immortal ves had been hiding all along, only to reveal themselves at this critical moment? Suddenly, it dawned on you that this might indeed be the case. After all, Shen Wutian, the founder of the Immortal Arrival Sect, although hiding at the headquarters, still had tasks toplete for the great powers of the Immortal Realm. He certainly couldn''t let this important branch fall, so it made sense to leave some ninth-level Tribtion Crossing experts to guard it. You sighed softly, "I was careless." You felt a bit regretful; all the ns and preparations you made were now in vain, and you wouldn''t get to eat that dragon meat.Understanding your predicament, you didn''t think further. You quickly used your one-time talent: Face-to-Face, and silently chanted Bai Ruoxue''s name in your heart. You felt a tremor all over, and your figure instantly disappeared from the spot. This made everyone at the Immortal Arrival Sect frown, and Shen Wuyou immediately headed to the headquarters to report the situation to Shen Wutian. You were unaware of the reactions at the Immortal Arrival Sect. Because you had already appeared in front of Bai Ruoxue. However, it seemed your timing was off. At this moment, you saw Bai Ruoxue in front of you swinging her sword in a fierce sh. Behind you, a Fire Phoenix was spewing mes. Anyone with a brain could tell that Bai Ruoxue was in a fierce battle with the Fire Phoenix. You had appeared right in the middle of their battle, and both attacks were perfectly aimed at you. "WTF," you cursed instinctively. Was this going to be the end for you? With a loud "bang," you were hit by both attacks. Fortunately, at the critical moment, you used Divine Dao to convert all your spiritual energy into primordial energy, enhancing your physical defense. The two attacks didn''t kill you. But taking both attacks head-on still left you covered in blood. At this moment, Bai Ruoxue also realized what had happened. She didn''t ask how you appeared but grabbed you and turned to leave. The Fire Phoenix didn''t pursue but instead taunted Bai Ruoxue in human speech. This infuriated Bai Ruoxue, who cursed and vowed to pluck all the feathers off the "turkey" next time. Although injured, you didn''t lose consciousness. Suddenly, you understood why, in a previous simtion, when you obtained the Cmity Physique talent, Bai Ruoxue had thrown you into the Valley of mes. Damn it, it was to vent her anger!n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om You guessed that Bai Ruoxue had a grudge against the Fire Phoenix, and so the Demonic Phoenix in the Valley of mes, being of the same kind, suffered unjustly. After half a day, Bai Ruoxue brought you to a residence. Only then did she ask how you had escaped from the Southern Regions. You knew that Bai Ruoxue had bribed the Mystic Turtle with spirit stones to get into the Southern Regions, so you bluffed, saying you had used a massive amount of resources to bribe the Mystic Turtle to leave. Sure enough, after hearing this, Bai Ruoxue didn''t ask further. She just gave you a thumbs-up. After all, she thought she could bribe her way in and out of the Southern Regions because she wasn''t originally from there. Even if the bribe failed, her life wouldn''t be in much danger. But you were from the Southern Regions, and daring to do this, she admired your courage. Because she believed that if you failed, the Mystic Turtle would surely kill you. Later, you asked Bai Ruoxue about the current environment. You learned that this was the Eastern Regions, and thergest sect here was the Celestial Verdant Sect. Besides that, there were thousands of other sects, big and small. Bai Ruoxue herself was a direct disciple of the Celestial Verdant Sect. You were shocked to hear this. You couldn''t believe that a seventhyer Tribtion Crossing expert was just a disciple. How powerful must the Celestial Verdant Sect be? But Bai Ruoxue only smiled and didn''t exin further. After settling you down, she left. You had only met twice, and it was a chance encounter. Her settling you down and providing some information was already quite kind. Of course, this was also because you were rtively strong at the moment. She was cautious and didn''t fully trust you. If you had been a Chosen with great talent but weak strength, things might have turned out differently. In the end, you were left alone. You thought that since you had already left the Southern Regions, you could justy low and develop without relying on anyone. A monthter, your injuries were fully healed. You recovered so quickly because, although the injuries seemed severe, they were all physical. You practiced Martial Dao, so your body was inherently strong, and with the recovery power of the Yimu Divine Body, you healed quite rapidly. Once fully recovered, you began to consider your next steps. Ultimately, you decided that besides cultivating, you also needed to explore the outside world more. Having finally left the Southern Regions, you felt it was time to understand the overall situation of the Nine Mystic Realm. If possible, you wanted to see the other regions. Especially, you wanted to know which regions the gaps in the sealing formation of the Southern Regions connected to. In the thirty-first year, you traveled through the Eastern Regions, killing many demonic beasts. In the thirty-fifth year, your Martial Dao cultivation broke through to the seventhyer of the Transcendent Realm. In five years, you hunted numerous demonic beasts, using your Gluttonous Beast Physique to devour them, which allowed you to advance by oneyer in your Martial Dao cultivation. Actually, this speed wasn''t faster than when you were in the Southern Regions. After all, in the Southern Regions, you had obtained a lot of resources by robbing the Immortal Arrival Sect. However, this speed wasn''t slow either, and you were quite satisfied. In the forty-second year, your Martial Dao cultivation broke through to the eighthyer of the Transcendent Realm. By this time, you had traveled through half of the Eastern Regions. You witnessed the prosperity of the Eastern Regions, where almost everyone knew about cultivation. Every few years, the major sects would open their doors to recruit disciples. It could be said that as long as one had a bit of talent, almost everyone had the opportunity to enter the path of cultivation. Seeing this, you felt sorry for the people of the Southern Regions. In the Southern Regions, not to mention everyone cultivating, even inquiring about cultivators would get you killed by the Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect. Theparison was truly stark! Chapter 105: Bai Moyu, the leader of the Celestial Verdant Sect [In the fiftieth year, your Martial Dao cultivation broke through to the ninth level of the Transcendent Realm.] [In the same year, you had a chance encounter with Bai Ruoxue.] [You quickly seized the opportunity to ask her how to leave the Eastern Regions and travel to other major regions.] [Upon hearing your question, Bai Ruoxue mentioned a ce to head southward to the Southern Regions.] [But that wasn''t what you wanted. You asked her about the routes from the Eastern Regions to the other two major regions.] [Hearing this, Bai Ruoxue seemed to want to say something but couldn''t find the words.] [She felt she should know the answer to your question, but why didn''t she have any memory of it?] [Bai Ruoxue desperately tried to recall, suddenly clutching her head and rolling on the ground in pain.] [Seeing this, you were utterly confused, with a thousand questions running through your mind: "What''s going on?"][You just asked how to leave the Eastern Regions, so why is she rolling on the ground?] [After a long while, Bai Ruoxue got up from the ground, looking at you curiously and asking how you left the Southern Regions.] [Hearing this, you felt a chill down your spine.] [How could it be?] [Bai Ruoxue actually asked you how to leave the Southern Regions!] [You stared at Bai Ruoxue for a long time, confirming she wasn''t faking it.] [You concluded that she had lost her memory.] [You suddenly recalled her clutching her head and rolling on the ground earlier.] [You spected that maybe she couldn''t say how to leave the Eastern Regions.] [Your guess was partially correct but not entirely.] [You didn''t know that the real reason was that Bai Ruoxue had no memory of this at all.] [No, to be precise, her memories in this regard were sealed.] [If she tried to recall forcibly, she would experience the same kind of painful rolling on the ground.] [Eventually, she would lose even more memories.] [Unfortunately, you were unaware of all this.] [At this moment, you looked up at the sky, still specting.] [You suspected you were being watched, that a powerful being was observing this ce.] [But soon, you dismissed this possibility.] [You thought that if that were the case, you probably wouldn''t be able to leave the Southern Regions at all.] [Finally, you had a bolder idea.] [You thought that perhaps not just the Southern Regions, but the other major regions were also ygrounds for powerful beings from the Immortal Realm?] [It''s just that most people in these regions were unaware?] [At least, you knew Bai Ruoxue definitely didn''t know, otherwise, she wouldn''t have failed to reveal anything in so many simtions.] [In the end, you took a deep breath and decided to use your old method to deceive Bai Ruoxue.] [Then, you casually suggested that you wanted to join her sect.] [This was a n you had juste up with.] [Since Bai Ruoxue didn''t know, then as the strongest sect in the Eastern Regions, the Celestial Verdant Sect should have someone who knew something.] [You nned to join this sect and see if you could get some real information from the higher-ups.] [With your strength and talent, you indeed had the qualifications to join the Celestial Verdant Sect. After a moment of thought, Bai Ruoxue agreed to introduce you to the sect.] [In the fifty-first year, with Bai Ruoxue''s introduction, you sessfully joined the Celestial Verdant Sect.] [You became a guest elder of the Celestial Verdant Sect.] [Although the title of guest elder included the word "elder," it was far inferior to Bai Ruoxue''s status as a direct disciple.] [After all, a guest elder represented an outsider and had no real authority.] [In fact, this was also because your strength was too strong to be a regr disciple.] [And as a neer, you couldn''t gain the trust of the Celestial Verdant Sect to be a direct disciple.] [So, the position of guest elder was the most suitable for you, neither too high nor too low.] [You came here to gather information, and this position didn''t have enough authority.] [However, you knew that you had to take things one step at a time.] [As a neer, bing a guest elder was better than being a regr disciple.] [You could barely ept it.] [In the fifty-fifth year, your Martial Dao reached the peak of the Transcendent Realm, and your Immortal Dao also reached the peak of the Great Ascension stage.] [You felt a bit excited, as you were finally about to break through to a higher realm.] [In the fifty-sixth year, your Martial Dao first broke through to the Half-Saint Realm, followed closely by your Immortal Dao reaching the Tribtion Crossing stage.] [As you reached the Tribtion Crossing Realm, the sky was filled with lightning and thunder, and a tribtion began to gather.] [This was unexpected for you, as in the Southern Regions, others who broke through to the Tribtion Crossing stage never had a tribtion descend.] [In previous simtions, you had only seen your father attract a lightning tribtion when he broke through to the Immortal Realm!] [Although your cultivation was special, apart from causing a stir during the Core Formation stage, other breakthroughs hadn''t caused any significantmotion.] [Unexpectedly, when you reached the Tribtion Crossing stage, changes urred again.] [This made your heart race with anxiety.] [You worried that the immortals of the Immortal Realm might be up to something again.] [Just as you were lost in thought, the sect master of the Celestial Verdant Sect, Bai Moyu, shouted, "Leave the sect''s boundaries to undergo your tribtion."] [Hearing this, you realized you were still within the sect''s range.] [If the tribtion really descended, wouldn''t half the sect be destroyed?] [So, without hesitation, you flew out of the sect''s boundaries.] [Three dayster, you sessfully passed the lightning tribtion and returned to the Celestial Verdant Sect.] [Upon your return, you were summoned by the sect master, Bai Moyu.] [Bai Moyu stared at you for a long time before finally saying, "You didn''t even know that entering the Tribtion Crossing stage requires undergoing a tribtion."] [Hearing this, you were stunned. You had never considered this question before, thinking it was a personal issue. Unexpectedly, it was amon urrence for cultivators in this ce to attract a lightning tribtion when reaching the Tribtion Crossing stage.] [Before you could think further, Bai Moyu continued, asking who you really were and where you came from.] [You hadn''t expected Bai Ruoxue to be so loyal, as she had never mentioned that you weren''t from the Eastern Regions.] [However, since Bai Moyu asked, you didn''t hide it and directly stated that you came from the Southern Regions.] [You felt this wasn''t something that couldn''t be said.] [From Bai Ruoxue''s memory loss, you knew there were definitely secrets here, and you guessed they were rted to the Immortal Realm.] [And this sect master of the Celestial Verdant Sect probably knew quite a bit.] [So, you thought you were likely allies.] [Previously, you hadn''t had the opportunity to interact with this sect master, but now was a perfect chance.] [Even if you were wrong, you were willing to take the risk.] [After hearing your words, Bai Moyu seemed thoughtful and finally sighed, "Yes, apart from the Southern Regions, where else could someonee from?"] [Bai Moyu waved his hand and directly grabbed you.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [You wanted to resist, but it was futile as you were tightly restrained by him.] [However, Bai Moyu didn''t harm you but instead flew off into the distance with you.] [You didn''t know where he was taking you.] [But you were already deeply shocked, as Bai Moyu''s strength was formidable.] [You had just broken through to the first level of the Tribtion Crossing stage in Immortal Dao and the first level of the Half-Saint Realm in Martial Dao; theoretically, you should be able to match a normal ninth-level Tribtion Crossing expert.] [However, when facing Bai Moyu''s restraint, you had no power to resist.] [You had used the Eye of Insight to check, and Bai Moyu was only at the ninth level of the Tribtion Crossing stage.] [This made your previously somewhat arrogant heart, due to multiple instances of surpassing levels in battle, settle down. You kept warning yourself not to becent, not to underestimate anyone in the world.] Chapter 106: Three maps After half a day, Bai Moyu brought you to the depths of the Celestial Verdant Sect. As Bai Moyu continued flying, you finally stopped in front of a towering peak. This ce was already deep within the Celestial Verdant Sect, a ce you had no prior ess to. You had no idea why Bai Moyu brought you here now.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om While you were looking around, Bai Moyu performed a few incantations, revealing a passageway beneath the peak. He grabbed you and stepped inside. As soon as you entered the passage, Bai Moyu released his hold on you, allowing you to walk beside him. You were puzzled, not knowing what this ce was. But you didn''t ask much, choosing to follow his steps. You thought that with the power Bai Moyu had just disyed, if he wanted to harm you, he wouldn''t need to go through all this trouble.Following the passage downward, without any branches, you calcted that you had walked for about five or six hours before Bai Moyu stopped again. Looking at the Bronze Gate in front of Bai Moyu, you understood that this must be the destination. At this moment, your curiosity was at its peak. You had to know, walking for five or six hours wasn''t a leisurely stroll; you used your cultivation. You estimated that you were now at least tens of thousands of meters underground. Such a depth, with a Bronze Gate, was clearly unusual. Without letting you guess further, Bai Moyu directly ced his hand on the Bronze Gate, which opened in response. You immediately felt a suction force pulling you in, and you were involuntarily drawn through the gate. When you reappeared, you found yourself in a grand hall. Bai Moyu was standing beside you. You had a lot of questions and wanted to ask. Just as you were about to speak, you suddenly saw a crystal coffin appear ahead. Inside the coffiny a man. After a quick nce, you instinctively looked at Bai Moyu beside you, then back at the man in the coffin. Instantly, you were shocked. The man in the coffin looked exactly like Bai Moyu. At that moment, you saw Bai Moyu push open the coffin and lie inside. Soon, you saw Bai Moyu merge with the man in the coffin. What was going on? You felt like your brain couldn''t keep up! But then, something even more surprising happened! You saw Bai Moyu''s cultivation change. At this moment, your Eye of Insight couldn''t see through Bai Moyu''s cultivation anymore; it only showed question marks! You thought to yourself: This is bad! Clearly, he was now at least on the same level as Shen Wutian. Such a powerful figure, would he, like Shen Wutian, want to refine your Divine Dao cultivation? But even if that were the case, you had no choice, as you no longer had the talent to escape. Just as you were lost in thought, Bai Moyu spoke. Bai Moyu smiled at you and said, "Don''t worry, I''m still me." Hearing this, you felt somewhat relieved. After all, if he was still the same Bai Moyu, the danger shouldn''t be too great. Of course, even if there was danger, you had no way to resist. So, you braced yourself and nodded, asking him why he brought you here. Bai Moyu said that his true cultivation and certain memories couldn''t be easily taken outside. This was the ce where he stored his cultivation and memories. He smiled at you and said, "Don''t you want to know about the Nine Mystic Realm?" If he didn''te here, his original memories wouldn''t have urate information. Hearing this, you suddenly understood. It seemed Bai Moyu indeed knew a lot. But for some reason, he couldn''t know, or it wasn''t safe for him to carry those memories, so he used a special method to store them here. When needed, he would return here to retrieve his memories. As for his change in cultivation, you guessed it was for the same reason; he couldn''t possess too high a cultivation. However, you couldn''t understand why Bai Moyu would reveal such an important secret to you. This could be a matter of life and death for him! Seeing your prolonged silence, Bai Moyu teased, "Don''t overthink it. I revealed my secret to you because youe from the Southern Regions. We''re destined to be on the same side!" Bai Moyu''s words confused you even more. But fortunately, he didn''t keep you in suspense. Bai Moyu led you to the center of the hall. There, you saw three maps. Bai Moyu pointed to the maps and asked if you noticed any changes. After observing for a while, you hesitantly said, "Is the continent shattered?" Bai Moyu nodded and said, "Yes, the continent is shattered!" He told you that these three maps depicted the changes in the Nine Mystic Realm. Hearing that they were maps of the Nine Mystic Realm, you observed more carefully. After a few minutes, you looked at Bai Moyu and said, "Aren''t we in the Eastern Regions now?" Bai Moyu, with a sorrowful expression, said, "Yes and no." He exined that this ce could no longer be considered part of the Eastern Regions; it was now just a massivendmass drifting on the sea. Thisnd originally belonged to the Eastern Regions, but due to the continent''s fragmentation, it had drifted southward to the Southern Regions. Hearing this, you suddenly understood and cursed yourself for not realizing it sooner. The three maps you just observed: the first showed an intact continent, with the Southern Regions at the southernmost part, connected to other regions. The second map showed the Nine Mystic Realm''s regions breaking into variousndmasses, drifting into the sea. The third map depicted thergestndmass of the Eastern Regionspletely splitting, with thergest piece drifting southward to the Southern Regions. You recalled the situation in the Southern Regions, where the sealing formation''s four cracks corresponded to four directions. The other directions could be exined, but the Southern Regions were already at the southernmost end of the Nine Mystic Realm, connected to the Endless Sea to the south. How could it be part of another region? After seeing these maps, everything became clear. But at the same time, you had a new question. How did such a vast continent suddenly crack? Was it a natural disaster or a man-made cmity? Chapter 107: The Origin of the Banning Formation "This time, Bai Moyu didn''t leave you guessing." "He told you that millions of years ago, the Nine Mystic Realm was also one of the great realms of the heavens."N?v(el)B\\jnn "Back then, the Nine Mystic Realm was filled with immortals, and tribtion crossing was asmon as dogs." "Butter, the Nine Mystic Realm was ambushed by the Immortal n." "Caught off guard, the Nine Mystic Realm suffered heavy losses." "However, the strongest figures of the Nine Mystic Realm quickly organized a counterattack, and that battle shook the heavens and the earth." "As he spoke, Bai Moyu seemed to fall into a reverie." "After a long while, he sighed, ''It''s a pity that the battlefield was within our Nine Mystic Realm. That battle caused our continent to fracture and the Heavenly Dao to be damaged.''" "He said that battles between realms are prolonged conflicts. Once the Heavenly Dao is damaged, future Chosen will find it difficult to cultivate.""But at that time, the strong figures of the Nine Mystic Realm were not overly concerned because their high-endbat power was not inferior to that of the Immortal Realm." "Strong individuals are often arrogant, thinking that if their realm''s Heavenly Dao is damaged, they could simply annihte the Immortal n and then wait for the Nine Mystic Realm''s Heavenly Dao to recover." "At this point, Bai Moyu suddenly shouted in anger, ''But the despicable Immortal n took advantage of the Nine Mystic Realm''s damaged Heavenly Dao. They moved the Immortal Realm here and used its Heavenly Dao to suppress our damaged one.''" "Hearing this, you were astonished, not expecting such secrets about the Nine Mystic Realm." "Bai Moyu paused at this point." "He stared at you for a long time before slowly speaking again." "He said that although the Nine Mystic Realm fell into an absolute disadvantage after that, the war has not ended and continues to this day." "He said that several top experts of the Nine Mystic Realm are still holding back the Immortal Realm''s masters." "However, because the Nine Mystic Realm''s Heavenly Dao is damaged, there are fewer and fewer rising talents, making the war increasingly difficult." "His mission is to hide his cultivation and identity, find potential talents, train them, and send excellent talents to the battlefield." "Then he asked if you had heard of Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya." "You didn''t know why Bai Moyu suddenly mentioned those two seniors, but you nodded, indicating you had heard of them." "Bai Moyu said that both of them were trained by him." "At this point, Bai Moyu raised his eyebrows slightly, a hint of pride in his expression." "But you were puzzled." "ording to what you know, Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya were from the Southern Regions. How could they have been trained by Bai Moyu?" "You knew that during the time of Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya, the sealing formation in the Southern Regions was intact, and there was no connection to the Endless Sea." "Bai Moyu seemed to see through your thoughts." "He smiled and said, ''The protective formation in the Southern Regions was left by the ancestors of my Celestial Verdant Sect. Although I can''t break it, I can still send things inside.''" "He said that the inheritances of Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya were sent into the Southern Regions by him." "Otherwise, no matter how talented they were, without powerful cultivation methods, how could they have made such a great name for themselves and even broken the protective formation of the Southern Regions together?" "''What? The sealing formation in the Southern Regions was set up by your sect?'' you eximed instinctively." "The sealing formation in the Southern Regions was left by the ancestors of the Celestial Verdant Sect?" "You felt a sense of disarray, wondering if your previous theories needed to bepletely overturned." "Hearing your exmation, Bai Moyu sighed and said that the original sealing formation in the Southern Regions was actually a protective formation." "It was indeed set up by a powerful ancestor of the Celestial Verdant Sect." "Bai Moyu said that the formation was meant to protect the Southern Regions, allowing its people to cultivate to higher realms and give back to the Nine Mystic Realm." "But unfortunately, that ancestor was ambushed and killed by the Immortal Realm before he could pass on the control techniques for the formation." "As a result, what was originally a protective formation turned into a sealing formation and fell into the hands of the Immortal Realm." "However, because the formation was very strong, only a few powerful beings could enter the Southern Regions, while ordinary Immortals found it difficult." "So, the Immortals usually attacked the people of the Southern Regions with Heavenly Thunder from outside the formation." "Hearing this, you recalled the information you had obtained from previous simtions." "After thinking for a long time, you felt that what Bai Moyu said seemed to match the previous situations." "In previous simtions, aside from two instances of giant hands covering the sky and one instance of a giant foot attacking the Southern Regions, it seemed that no other Immortals had attacked the people of the Southern Regions." "But you still felt something was off." "ording to Bai Moyu, your previous theory about a grand scheme by powerful beings might need to be overturned." "If that''s the case, why didn''t the powerful beings of the Immortal Realm directly destroy the Southern Regions?" "Unable to figure it out, you decided to ask directly." "So, you voiced your doubt and asked Bai Moyu why the powerful beings of the Immortal Realm didn''t directly attack the Southern Regions." "You thought that a strong person like Bai Moyu, who had told you so much, wouldn''t bother to deceive you. After all, who would go to such lengths to deceive an ant?" "Bai Moyuughed heartily upon hearing your question." "He said, ''Did you forget that I just told you that the Nine Mystic Realm''s powerful beings are not fewer than those of the Immortal Realm?''" "Even if the powerful beings of the Immortal Realm wanted to attack, they would have to consider that while they were attacking the Southern Regions, the powerful beings of the Nine Mystic Realm would also attack other areas of the Immortal Realm." "It''s all about mutual bnce." "Bai Moyu''s words resolved some of your doubts." "But you still felt something was missing." "You remembered the information you got from Shen Wutian, which said that after two powerful beings talked, one created the Immortal Arrival Sect, and the other captured four fierce beasts to block the gaps in the sealing formation." "This didn''t seem like protecting the Southern Regions!" "Perhaps sensing your doubt, Bai Moyu continued." "He said that after Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya broke the formation in the Southern Regions, the powerful beings of the Immortal Realm originally intended to destroy the Southern Regions directly." "But at the critical moment, the powerful beings of the Nine Mystic Realm arrived. After negotiations, the powerful beings of the Immortal Realm created the Immortal Arrival Sect, forbidding the people of the Southern Regions from cultivating." "They feared that more Chosen would emerge, disrupting their ns to invade the Nine Mystic Realm." "And the powerful beings of the Nine Mystic Realm captured four fierce beasts to block the formation''s gaps and established an agreement that the Immortal Arrival Sect and the fierce beasts would not interfere with each other." "At this point, Bai Moyu fell silent for a moment." "He said he didn''t know the exact purpose of the Nine Mystic Realm''s powerful beings." "But he spected on one possibility: ''Poison Cultivation!''" "He said that the current situation in the Nine Mystic Realm is dire, and he suspected that the powerful being wanted to use the high-pressure environment to cultivate a ''King of Poison'' in the Southern Regions." Chapter 108: Thrown back to the Southern Regions In reality, Jiang Yifeng touched his chin as he pondered. "Is what Bai Moyu said in the simtion true?" Something felt off. ording to Bai Moyu, the Nine Mystic Realm had been in a constant state of war. He could understand the concept of poison cultivation in such a scenario. But Jiang Yifeng still couldn''t wrap his head around it. He remembered from previous simtions that whenever his father or the Lady in Red broke through to the Immortal Realm, it brought about a cataclysmic disaster for the Southern Regions. It didn''t matter if the one taking action was a powerful figure from the Nine Mystic Realm or the Immortal Realm. It all seemed very unreasonable.After all, could it be that anyone who broke through to the Immortal Realm was destined to be a Poison King? ording to Bai Moyu, the war in the Nine Mystic Realm had been ongoing for millions of years. Could a single Immortal Realm expert really change the entirendscape of the Nine Mystic Realm? Clearly, that was impossible! Jiang Yifeng furrowed his brows, contemting, "Could Bai Moyu be deliberately deceiving me?" But that didn''t seem right either! The simtion had shown that Bai Moyu''s strength was transcendent, even the Eye of Insight couldn''t see through him. What benefit would such a powerful figure gain from deceiving him? Or perhaps Bai Moyu''s conjecture was simply incorrect? Maybe Bai Moyu himself didn''t know the real reason? "I just can''t figure it out," Jiang Yifeng muttered to himself, shaking his head. However, he decided that Bai Moyu''s words couldn''t be fully trusted. Many things might still need to be verified personally within the simtion. Nevertheless, Jiang Yifeng believed that the credibility of those three maps was still quite high. After all, they corresponded with the locations of the cracks in the sealing formation of the Southern Regions. In the end, he stopped thinking about it and looked at the simtor. [You heard Bai Moyu''s words and felt a bit suspicious, sensing that there might be some issues with what he said.] [You were very puzzled.] [But you couldn''t directly ask about it.] [You couldn''t just say, "Why can''t anyone in the Southern Regions break through to the Immortal Realm? Does breaking through to the Immortal Realm make you a Poison King?" Such words!] [After all, these events hadn''t happened yet; you only knew about them from previous simtions.] [You felt that doing so might expose your knowledge of the future.] [Clearly, that wouldn''t be good for you!] [So, you pretended to understand and didn''t refute his words.] [However, at this moment, you already felt a bit of distrust towards Bai Moyu.] [Afterwards, Bai Moyu exined why breaking through to the Tribtion Crossing stage here would bring about a tribtion, but not in the Southern Regions.] [He said it was because this ce had been separated from the continent during the early stages of the Nine Mystic Realm''s great war.] [So it still retained the original heavenly rules of the Nine Mystic Realm.] [The Southern Regions, however, had remained connected to the main continent, and because of the ongoing war outside, the heavenly rules had long since changed, hence there were no tribtions for the Tribtion Crossing stage there.] [After hearing this, you were unsure of its truth, as the seed of distrust towards Bai Moyu had already been nted in your heart.] [However, you still outwardly expressed your gratitude for Bai Moyu''s exnations.] [Half a dayter, Bai Moyu looked at you and said it was time for you to return to the Southern Regions.] [This startled you.] [Before you could speak, Bai Moyu said that he had to store his memories underground here, and since you knew so much, you couldn''t stay.] [You were just about to say that you could give up those memories!] [But Bai Moyu didn''t give you a chance to argue; with a wave of his hand, he restrained you.] [Then, you saw him separate himself, leaving most of his cultivation and memories in the underground bronze gate.] [After finishing everything, he took you and sped southward.] [At this moment, you couldn''t move, but you were cursing inwardly.] [You had finally left the Southern Regions, only to be sent back again.] [You really didn''t want those memories; you just wanted to live by hiding and growing stronger, why was it so difficult!] [A dayter, Bai Moyu brought you to a sea area, and not far ahead, you could see a light shield with a crack in it.] [You knew this was the ce connecting the Southern Regions to the Endless Sea, and that light shield was the sealing formation.] [Upon arriving, Bai Moyu tapped the sealing formation several times.] [After finishing, he kindly handed you a storage ring, telling you to use the resources inside to bribe the Mystic Turtle.] [Then, he released your restraints and threw you into the crack in the sealing formation.] [In an instant, you entered the Southern Regions.] [Return to the Southern Regions? No, you were a thousand times unwilling.] [After all, you knew it was really hard to live by hiding in the Southern Regions for long.] [So, as soon as you entered the Southern Regions, you headed back towards the crack in the formation, intending to return to the "Eastern Regions" through it!] [But just as you approached the crack, Bai Moyu''s voice came from outside.] [He shouted, telling you that he could only hold off the formation spirit for a moment, urging you to leave quickly.] [Hearing this, you temporarily gave up your recent idea.] [However, you were now even more puzzled.] [Was Bai Moyu deceiving you? Or was he telling the truth?] [Although you remembered the Mystic Turtle saying before that the formation spirit didn''t allow people from the Southern Regions to leave through here.] [But since you had juste in through here, you thought the Mystic Turtle might have been lying to you.] [After all, if this sealing formation was set up by the predecessors of the Celestial Verdant Sect to protect the people of the Southern Regions, it shouldn''t prevent them from entering and leaving.] [But now that Bai Moyu said the same thing, you had no choice but to believe it.] [Still, you felt something was off.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [Bai Moyu''s words gave you a strong sense of dissonance.] [Could it be that Bai Moyu was very foolish? Mixing up his previous statements with his current actions?] [Otherwise, how could it be like this?] [After all, his words and actions were contradictory!] [Moreover, his current act of throwing you back into the Southern Regions.] [This was clearly throwing you into the fire.] [Wasn''t he afraid that you would resent him and doubt everything he had told you before?] [Well, it seemed he didn''t need to be afraid, as he was much stronger than you.] [But once you started doubting, what was the point of everything he had told you before?] [Could it be that he had also stored his memories about this in the underground chamber?] [But you still felt it was wrong; he remembered to send you back to the Southern Regions, so those memories shouldn''t be sealed temporarily.] [As you were puzzling over this.] [Bai Moyu had already returned to the Celestial Verdant Sect, back to the underground bronze gate.] [Just as he arrived, a female voice questioned him, "Why did you lie to him!"] [If you were there, you would have seen that the one questioning him was Bai Ruoxue.] [Bai Moyu looked at Bai Ruoxue, who was immobilized, and smiled, "My dear daughter, when did I ever lie to him?"] Chapter 109: Bai Moyus grand scheme! Bai Moyu saw Bai Ruoxue''s defiant expression, paused for a moment, and continued, "Has the Nine Mystic Realm been invaded by the Immortal n? That formation was set up by our Celestial Verdant Sect, and I personally arranged it!" Bai Ruoxue, clearly still unconvinced, was no longer the Bai Ruoxue of the Seventh Layer of Tribtion. She had many hidden memories. That''s right, Bai Ruoxue''s memories had actually been sealed all along, and it was Bai Moyu who personally sealed them. And Bai Ruoxue was here now because you had previously asked her how she left the Eastern Regions, causing her to act abnormally. Bai Moyu wanted to restore her memories and then reseal them. Seeing Bai Ruoxue''s expression, Bai Moyu smiled and continued, "Didn''t Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya cultivate our Celestial Verdant Sect''s techniques to embark on the path of cultivation?" Upon hearing this, Bai Ruoxue angrily retorted, "But those techniques weren''t taught by you; they obtained the manuals left by our senior brother." Hearing Bai Ruoxue mention his beloved disciple, Bai Moyu''s expression showed a trace of sadness. He murmured, "Ah, if only your senior brother had listened to me back then, he wouldn''t have met such a fate."After saying this, Bai Moyu told Bai Ruoxue once again not to go southward to find her senior brother. But Bai Ruoxue ignored him and instead questioned why Bai Moyu had deceived you. In the end, Bai Moyu sighed and said to Bai Ruoxue, "Should I tell him that the great powers of the Nine Mystic Realm have already betrayed us and are conspiring with the great powers of the Immortal Realm to seize the fragments of the Heavenly Dao?" Looking at Bai Ruoxue, Bai Moyu said he sensed several fragments of the Heavenly Dao in you, suggesting that you might be the chosen one. Only by giving you hope could you continue to strive, perhaps leaving a sliver of hope for the Nine Mystic Realm. Otherwise, revealing such despairing truths would only crush your spirit and destroy any remaining hope. As soon as Bai Moyu finished speaking, Bai Ruoxue''s face lit up with joy. She looked at Bai Moyu and said, "Father, are you finally going to take action?" But Bai Moyu shook his head, saying, "Let''s see how things go." This caused Bai Ruoxue''s newly formed smile to fade once again. She shouted, "Father, you are also a great power of the Nine Mystic Realm! Only you have the chance to change the situation now. The people in other parts of the Nine Mystic Realm are waiting for you!" Tears streamed down Bai Ruoxue''s face as she choked out, "Father, you''ve been hiding with us survivors, isting your cultivation to avoid exposure, but how long can we live by hiding like this?" Hearing this, Bai Moyu gave a bitter smile and offered no further exnation. Instead, with a wave of his hand, he stripped Bai Ruoxue of her memories and cultivation. This time, he evenpletely sealed the coordinates of the Southern Regions in her mind. To prevent Bai Ruoxue from heading southward again. After finishing everything, he looked at the unconscious Bai Ruoxue and murmured, "What else can I do? A single tree cannot support a forest." At this moment, Bai Moyu thought of you and suddenly smiled, "How much of my poor lie did you see through? But it doesn''t matter. Even if you don''t believe any of it, so what?" "Even if you see me as an enemy, you should still strive to cultivate! Hahaha..." After a long while, hisughter gradually stopped, and Bai Moyu finally sighed, "I just hope that you, chosen by multiple fragments of the Heavenly Dao, can make it through!" "If you can''t even avoid the deadly schemes of the great powers, how can you change the overall situation of the Nine Mystic Realm?" In reality, Jiang Yifeng''s eyes widened like saucers. He couldn''t believe the twist hade so quickly. Bai Moyu wasn''t a bad person! He had deceived him to prevent him from feeling despair over the Nine Mystic Realm''s situation! As for Bai Moyu throwing his simted self back to the Southern Regions, putting him in danger, Jiang Yifeng thought of a possibility based on the simtor''s disy. Poison Cultivation, damn it, Bai Moyu was treating him like a poison being cultivated. So, Bai Moyu hadn''t lied. But, damn it, it wasn''t someone else cultivating the poison; it was Bai Moyu himself! He wasn''t even worried about being seen as an enemy because being seen as an enemy would still require him to cultivate desperately. Jiang Yifeng could already imagine what would happen next. If he really survived the deadly schemes of the great powers, by then, even knowing the truth, he would be a lone tree unable to support the forest and would definitely seek Bai Moyu''s help, leaving only gratitude for him. And if he didn''t make it through, Bai Moyu wouldn''t lose anything; he could just continue hiding. So, Bai Moyu was never afraid of being suspected. Everything he did was an open strategy. All he had to do was throw Jiang Yifeng back to the Southern Regions to cultivate the poison.N?v(el)B\\jnn This also reasonably exined Bai Moyu''s seemingly irrational actions before. Besides these thoughts, Jiang Yifeng had another idea. Why did this simtion show events outside of his perspective this time? In previous simtions, it was always from his first-person perspective, showing the plot only when he was present. But this time, even though his simted self had returned to the Southern Regions, the simtor kept showing events rted to Bai Moyu. Jiang Yifeng thought this might be the simtor deliberately wanting him to know this information. Could the simtor really be the Heavenly Dao of the Nine Mystic Realm? It knew Bai Moyu was a great power who hadn''t betrayed the Nine Mystic Realm and wanted him to know this. Then, it wanted him to recruit Bai Moyu to join the fight and save the Nine Mystic Realm? Is that it? But Jiang Yifeng felt something was off. If the simtor was really the Heavenly Dao of the Nine Mystic Realm, wouldn''t that be too lowly? And if the great powers'' battles could shatter the Heavenly Dao, could the simtor, if it were the Heavenly Dao, avoid the great powers'' detection? Moreover, from the simtion, Bai Moyu mentioned multiple fragments of the Heavenly Dao, not the simtor. In the end, Jiang Yifeng thought the possibility of the simtor being the Heavenly Dao was there, but it was extremely slim. Regardless, Jiang Yifeng knew Bai Moyu was definitely an important figure, not just because of his great power''s cultivation. But because the simtor had specifically shown a segment about Bai Moyu. Jiang Yifeng silently remembered the name Bai Moyu. Then, he continued to look at the simtor. [You have been thrown back to the Southern Regions by Bai Moyu for two days.] [During this time, you have been lingering near the formation''s crack.] [You still think about leaving the Southern Regions through this crack and returning to the Eastern Regions to continue hiding and growing stronger.] [So much time has passed, you think Bai Moyu should have left by now. You approach the crack in the formation.] [At this moment, a Mystic Turtle appeared from the Endless Sea.] [It spoke human words, shouting at you, "If you don''t want to die, stay away!"] [You were startled by the sudden appearance of the Mystic Turtle.] [But you didn''t fully trust the Mystic Turtle''s words.] [After all, if this sealing formation was really set up by the Celestial Verdant Sect to protect the Southern Regions, it shouldn''t have a formation spirit that attacks those leaving the Southern Regions.] [During this time, you have been unable to discern who is good and who is bad.] [Seeing you unmoved, the Mystic Turtle snorted coldly and said, "If you wish to die, then go ahead!"] [You remained silent for a long time, thinking that since this is just a simtion, at worst, you''d die.] [No matter the oue, you thought you could at least determine whether the Mystic Turtle was good or bad.] [You could also find out if this formation was really set up by the Celestial Verdant Sect to protect the Southern Regions.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng frowned slightly as he read this. He was already certain that Bai Moyu intended to cultivate him like a poison. So, would the formation really not attack him? Jiang Yifeng murmured to himself. "No, this formation was set up by Bai Moyu. Whether it would attack those from the Southern Regions before is unclear, but now it will definitely stop me!" Chapter 110: I feel like Im going to get smarter As he thought about it, Jiang Yifeng realized that trying to escape through the formation''s gap in the simtion was absolutely impossible. It could even lead to his death, ending this simtion prematurely. Given this, Jiang Yifeng decided to initiate a deep simtion to prevent the actions within the simtor. He didn''t want to waste this simtion. After all, based on the timeline, it should be just after the Heavenly Thunder, and in the Southern Regions, he still had decades to develop quietly.N?v(el)B\\jnn Just as Jiang Yifeng was about to start the deep simtion, he nced at the simtor panel and felt a chill in his heart! Something was wrong! The simtor showed that the Mystic Turtle warned him about the danger of approaching the sealing formation''s gap! But this didn''t make sense!How did it know he was from the Southern Regions? Based on previous simtions, the Mystic Turtle had said that people from the Southern Regions couldn''t leave through the formation gap, or they would be attacked by the formation spirit. But in this simtion, he had entered from outside the Southern Regions, so why was the Mystic Turtle still giving such a warning? How did it know he was from the Southern Regions? Or was it lying to him all along? Was the formation gap actually not a barrier for people from the Southern Regions? Had the Mystic Turtle been the one blocking the way all along? But in previous simtions, the Mystic Turtle didn''t seem hostile towards him! Jiang Yifeng''s mind raced with analysis. Suddenly, a sh of insight struck him, and he murmured to himself. "What if the Mystic Turtle and Bai Moyu are in cahoots?" Following this line of thought, Jiang Yifeng continued to analyze. If this hypothesis were true, then the Mystic Turtle''s previous actions of not attacking him and even offering help made sense. After all, Bai Moyu wasn''t trying to kill people but was cultivating poison! Although this simtion showed Bai Moyu treating him as a poison subject, who knew if he had treated others the same way! Bai Moyu definitely didn''t want people from the Southern Regions entering the "Eastern Regions"! So, if the Mystic Turtle and Bai Moyu were working together, their goal would be the same. Naturally, they wouldn''t kill someone with potential but would prevent them from leaving the Southern Regions. After all, only the Southern Regions provided the most oppressive environment. This made everything reasonable. As for the formation spirit within the sealing formation? At this moment, Jiang Yifeng was skeptical. Did the formation spirit really exist? Previously, he had almost regarded the Mystic Turtle as an ally and didn''t think deeply about its words. But now, upon reflection, he noticed something amiss. As an eighth-grade Formation Master, Jiang Yifeng knew that formations above the immortal level should indeed have formation spirits. But this sealing formation had already been shattered once. And based on this simtion, there were people from the Immortal Realm attacking this sealing formation. Was the formation spirit really still there? No, it was no longer there. Previously, Jiang Yifeng''s understanding of formations was insufficient, and hepletely trusted the Mystic Turtle, not thinking much about it. But now, upon reconsideration, he realized there was a serious w in the Mystic Turtle''s story about the formation spirit! The sealing formation had been shattered for millions of years; if there were a formation spirit, it should have slowly repaired the formation''s gaps. After millions of years, these gaps shouldn''t still exist. So, from this, he deduced that the Mystic Turtle had lied. The real barrier preventing people from the Southern Regions from leaving the Endless Sea had always been the Mystic Turtle. But it didn''t harm people and even allowed Bai Ruoxue toe and go freely, which was clearly different from other fierce beasts. "So, they must be in cahoots!" Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng shouted. He felt like he was finally getting smarter. Jiang Yifeng believed he had uncovered the truth. Because, just now, he thought of another crucial clue. Bai Moyu wanted to prevent him from leaving the Southern Regions, and there were only two ways to do it: through the formation or by external force. The possibility of a formation spirit was ruled out after Jiang Yifeng began to doubt the Mystic Turtle and analyzed it thoroughly. But with Bai Moyu''s capabilities, he could naturally set up another formation spirit. After all, he was the one who arranged the sealing formation. However, from the simtion, it was clear that Bai Moyu didn''t want to expose his identity to other powerful beings. So, if he casually altered the sealing formation, this possibility could also be ruled out. After all, any changes to the formation would be noticed by other powerful beings, Jiang Yifeng thought. So, in the end, Bai Moyu could only rely on external force. But where would this external forcee from? It could only be the Mystic Turtle in the Endless Sea. After connecting all the clues, Jiang Yifeng waspletely certain that his guess was correct. As for whether the Mystic Turtle had been sent by Bai Moyu from the beginning as part of a ruse or was bought offter, Jiang Yifeng didn''t know, but it didn''t matter. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng was no longer in a hurry to start the deep simtion to stop his actions. He wanted to see how long the Mystic Turtle in the simtion could keep up the act! Jiang Yifeng''s lips curled into a slight smile as he watched the developments in the simtion. [You didn''t hesitate and walked directly towards the formation gap, intending to leave the Southern Regions through it.] [The Mystic Turtle, seeing you getting closer to the formation gap, knew it couldn''t scare you anymore.] [So, it made its move!] [You felt yourself being pulled by a powerful force.] [Soon, you found yourself in the Mystic Turtle''s ws.] [The Mystic Turtle snorted coldly, didn''t waste words with you, and threw you northward.] [While you were still in the air, unable to control yourself, the Mystic Turtle''s voice echoed, warning you that if you dared to approach the Endless Sea again, you would die!] [You were filled with confusion and forced to leave the Endless Sea.] [You wondered why this change urred and what was going on with the Mystic Turtle.] In reality, seeing this, Jiang Yifeng silently muttered: "Activate deep simtion for one day!" [Ding, activating deep simtion for one day, consuming 24 origin values, remaining origin values.] In an instant, Jiang Yifeng entered the simtion world. After entering the deep simtion, Jiang Yifeng first found a quiet ce. Then he began a day''s retreat. A dayter, the deep simtion ended. Jiang Yifeng returned to reality, satisfied. Thinking about his recent actions, he couldn''t help but give himself a thumbs-up. Then he continued to watch the simtor. [You looked around at your surroundings, momentarily bewildered.] [You clearly remembered being in the wild, so how did you end up in a cave?] [Suddenly, you seemed to understand something.] [You started searching around.] [A few momentster, you found a notebook filled with writing.] [You realized you had been deep simted.] [But you couldn''t understand why the deep simtion urred at this time.] [So, you began reading the notebook.] [After finishing the notebook, your pupils contracted.] [You couldn''t believe that outside your vision, the simtor had shown other things.] [This made you understand why you were deep simted; it turned out that the real you was sending you information.] [Finally, you gave a thumbs-up to the void, thinking, "As expected of me!"] Chapter 111: The Danger of the Spine Mountain Formation "However, to be honest, this information doesn''t really help you much." "It only serves topletely extinguish your thoughts of leaving the Southern Regions through the Endless Sea." "So, you head towards Spine Mountain." "You know very well that fifty-six years have passed in the simtion, and the Heavenly Thunder has already descended upon the Southern Regions."N?v(el)B\\jnn "But you still want to take a look at Spine Mountain." "After all, this time, Old Li and the others at Spine Mountain have been working together to eliminate the underground Heavenly Thunder." "Although you know that the copse of the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya is inevitable," "With so many people working together, there''s a good chance they could dy the copse." "If they really managed to dy the copse, then you think that perhaps the Heavenly Thunder from a few years ago didn''t wipe out everyone at Spine Mountain.""In that case, you might still have a chance to venture into the Desert of Death with the cultivators of Spine Mountain and leave." "In the fifty-seventh year, you observe the scene at Spine Mountain from a distance, and a smile forms on your lips." "The people at Spine Mountain are temporarily safe and haven''t been struck down by the Heavenly Thunder." "You know this is because their efforts to eliminate the underground Heavenly Thunder have been effective." "As long as the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya hasn''tpletely copsed, they can still survive by relying on it." "But as you approach Spine Mountain, your expression darkens." "Now, whether in terms of cultivation or formations, you have surpassed your past self." "You can sense the underground Heavenly Thunder roaring beneath Spine Mountain." "It seems like it could break through the ground at any moment." "You know that the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya won''t hold out much longer." "Thinking of this, you don''t hesitate and quickly head towards the formation." "When you arrive at the formation and see the scene inside, your heart fills with sorrow." "At this moment, everyone in the formation is emaciated, and many have already died, leaving only their skeletons." "Because many have died, the fixed Thunder Conduction Formations you left behind are now unmanned, so you see many people enduring several bolts of underground Heavenly Thunder, trying to absorb and dissipate them." "You can tell that many of the cultivators at Spine Mountain are on the verge of copse." "Your appearance is immediately noticed by everyone." "Your father, Jiang Fushan, is overjoyed but only gives you a slight smile, not daring to move." "Because he is also here, enduring the underground Heavenly Thunder." "If he leaves, the Heavenly Thunder he is enduring will have to be borne by others." "This might cause a few more cultivators at Spine Mountain to lose their lives." "Apart from your father, Old Li and the others see you as a lifeline." "Before you can speak, Old Li starts to tell you about everything that has happened over the years, hoping you have a solution." "But you don''t need Old Li to exin; you''ve already seen the problem." "The people here, enduring the Heavenly Thunder, can''t leave." "Because if they stop dissipating the underground Heavenly Thunder, the formation will copse instantly." "And everyone is in the central area of the formation. Once it copses, escaping will be nearly impossible." "Even so, you quietly listen to Old Li finish his exnation." "After listening, you learn that initially, everyone could endure the underground Heavenly Thunder within their limits." "But a few years ago, the Heavenly Thunder from outside reappeared, continuously striking the formation, making the underground Heavenly Thunder even more ferocious." "The formation kept shing with lightning, as if it could copse at any moment." "This caused those enduring the underground Heavenly Thunder to die one by one." "And once someone died, a Thunder Conduction Formation would be left unmanned, forcing someone else to endure an additional bolt of Heavenly Thunder." "This cycle made it increasingly difficult for the people at Spine Mountain, until now, nearly half of them have lost their lives." "Old Li knows your expertise in formations and strength are formidable, and he stares at you intently, hoping you can save everyone." "Looking at the current situation, you know that saving the formation is impossible." "But if it''s just about saving people, there''s still a chance." "You start calcting in your mind." "You''re thinking whether to seize the moment while the formation hasn''t copsed and escape by yourself," "Or take a bit of a risk and try to save everyone at Spine Mountain." "Finally, you make up your mind to stay!" "Because you think that even if you escape and keep hiding, you can only live a few more decades. When the Heavenly Thunder descends again, you''ll still die." "Moreover, you previously stormed thergest branch of the Immortal Arrival Sect." "You''re worried that experts from the Immortal Arrival Sect are hunting you. Wandering outside, you might not survive until the next Heavenly Thunder descent!" "Given this, it''s better to stay and try to save everyone." "You have some confidence in your heart." "And once you save them, after they leave the formation, you think you''ll benefit too." "At the very least, when you venture into the Desert of Death, you''ll have a chance to leave the Southern Regions." "Although leaving from there isn''t safe, you still want to see what''s on the other side and gather more information." "Thinking of this, you use the Eye of Insight to check your father''s cultivation, at the ninth level of Tribtion Crossing." "Good, you swallow hard, thinking you might get a chance to eat dragon meat." "Of course, besides that, staying has another benefit." "You can use the underground Heavenly Thunder to temper your body and enhance your Martial Dao." "Having made your decision, you don''t hesitate any longer and join the group dissipating the Heavenly Thunder." "Yes, your n is simple and straightforward: you will dissipate the Heavenly Thunder yourself." "After all, you practice Martial Dao and have the Yimu Divine Body to repair your body, so you can dissipate the Heavenly Thunder faster than your father, Jiang Fushan." "As long as you can dissipate the underground Heavenly Thunder to a stable level, preventing an instant copse," "You can then have Old Li and your father, along with other strong cultivators at the Tribtion Crossing stage, take the lower-level cultivators and escape the formation." "With their Tribtion Crossing cultivation, as long as the formation doesn''t copse instantly and they have a few seconds of buffer time, it will be enough to escape." "You immediately move aside a dozen Body Integration stage cultivators who are about to copse." "And take over the underground Heavenly Thunder they were enduring." "In an instant, dozens of bolts of underground Heavenly Thunder strike you." "You feel the power and don''t sense much." "So, you nce at the nearby Great Ascension stage cultivators." "Feeling a surge of confidence, you also take over the Heavenly Thunder they were enduring." "For a moment, they all look at you with gratitude." "After all, they were already on the verge of copse, and now someone is helping them bear the burden. It''s like being given a new lease on life!" "And as you take over the underground Heavenly Thunder from these Great Ascension stage cultivators, you feel it for a moment, and it feels like a massage." "You''re overjoyed, realizing your body has be so strong." "So, you shout boldly, ''Those who can''t hold on, direct all the Heavenly Thunder to me.''" Chapter 112: Informing the truth, you have become the backbone Hearing your confident words, everyone was taken aback, but they still harbored a bit of doubt. As time passed, those who were struggling to hold on saw that you indeed seemed fine, looking rxed, and eventually directed their lightning towards you. Soon, you were surrounded by thunder, your figure almost obscured. After all, the highest cultivation level among those who had just transferred the underground Heavenly Thunder to you was only at the Great Ascension stage. Even with a bit more quantity, it posed no threat to your current Martial Dao cultivation. It didn''t even manage to seriously injure you; your Yimu Divine Body hadn''t evene into y. You sighed inwardly, thinking how strong Martial Dao was. This level of defense was something pure Immortal Dao cultivators couldn''tpare to. Just then, a massive bolt of thunder surged towards you. Instantly, white smoke rose from your head, your body convulsed, and blood spurted from your wounds.Looking at Old Li, who seemedpletely at ease, you could only think, "Damn it!" You had just boasted, but you were really targeting those cultivators below the Tribtion Crossing stage. Who knew Old Li, at the Seventh Layer of Tribtion, would suddenly pull this stunt? This sudden attack almost cost you half your life. Of course, with your current Martial Dao, you could have withstood the Heavenly Thunder that Old Li endured. But it was too sudden. And he transferred it to you when you were already enduring countless bolts of thunder. However, despite Old Li''s sudden move making you look miserable, your Yimu Divine Body had started to activate. Soon, your body began to heal. Old Li, who initially thought he had caused trouble, breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing your condition. In truth, Old Li didn''t want to direct the Heavenly Thunder to you, but he had reached his limit. Previously, many people, when they couldn''t bear it, would transfer their Heavenly Thunder to Old Li and your father, Jiang Fushan. After all, the two of them were the strongest and naturally bore more. So, seeing you easily withstand and consume so much Heavenly Thunder, Old Li thought of letting you help him hold on for a bit. To give him some breathing room. In the following month, most of the cultivators on Spine Mountain took turns resting and adjusting their states. Only you and your father continuously consumed the underground Heavenly Thunder. It could be said that your current efficiency in consuming the thunder was almost equivalent to half of the cultivators on Spine Mountain. However, not long after, once all the cultivators on Spine Mountain had adjusted their states, they once again drew the thunder they needed to consume from you. Everyone was smart and united. They knew that if they didn''t participate in consuming the thunder, even with you, the formation could only maintain the status quo and would be hard to repair. If the external Heavenly Thunder came again, they might not survive. But they didn''t know that even if they participated, the formation couldn''t be repaired; the underground Heavenly Thunder was beyond what you all could consume. This was actually a misunderstanding you deliberately let them have. Because you never said the formation was beyond saving, but stayed to participate in consuming the thunder. You wanted them to misunderstand; otherwise, you wouldn''t have dared to take on their thunder consumption earlier. If they knew the truth and ran away, you''d be stuck here alone. After everyone drew the thunder from you, you immediately felt relieved. But you didn''t idle. You set up a separate inverted Thunder Conduction Formation for yourself. Previously, you just gave others a breather, taking over their work. The actual consumption hadn''t changed much. From this moment, the elerated consumption of the underground Heavenly Thunder began. As you continuously consumed the underground Heavenly Thunder, your Martial Dao cultivation also steadily improved. In the blink of an eye, decades passed. In the seventy-ninth year, your Martial Dao cultivation reached the Second Layer of Semi-Saint. The higher your strength, even with the aid of Heavenly Thunder, the slower the improvement. Over the years, the underground Heavenly Thunder on Spine Mountain had been significantly consumed. Now, you could basically ensure that everyone could safely evacuate before the formation copsed. But you didn''t do so because you felt there was still time and wanted to use the thunder here to further improve your Martial Dao cultivation. Others, however, thought you wanted topletely resolve the crisis of the formation''s copse. It was a beautiful misunderstanding. In the eightieth year, your talent, Late Bloomer, triggered, doubling your cultivation speed. In the eighty-ninth year, your Martial Dao cultivation reached the Third Layer of Semi-Saint. With the Buff from Late Bloomer, your cultivation speed noticeably increased. In the nieth year, the effect of Late Bloomer strengthened again. In the ny-ninth year, your Martial Dao cultivation reached the peak of the Fourth Layer of Semi-Saint, nearing the Fifth Layer. ... In the hundredth year, the effect of Late Bloomer increased to three times. In the same year, your Martial Dao finally reached the Fifth Layer of Semi-Saint. But you didn''t continue cultivating. Because it had been over forty years since the fifty-third Heavenly Thunder descended, and you didn''t know when the next one woulde. You decided to prepare early. After all, the formation couldn''t withstand the next Heavenly Thunder. Without hesitation, you told everyone the truth. You instructed the experts in the Tribtion Crossing stage to take those with lower cultivation levels and quickly leave the center of the formation. Hearing your words, everyone panicked. But soon, they epted the reality. Finally, under yourmand, all the Tribtion Crossing experts led everyone to swiftly evacuate the center of the formation. You were no exception, retreating with everyone without dy. Just a few minutes after you all evacuated, the entire formation exploded. Spine Mountain instantly became an ocean of thunder. Seeing the scene before them, everyone turned their gaze to you. Unknowingly, you had be the backbone of everyone on Spine Mountain. This was only natural. Previously, everyone trusted Old Li because he could protect them. But now, not only were you as strong as Old Li, you also understood formations, and you had your father, Jiang Fushan, who was even stronger than Old Li, standing by your side.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om Naturally, you became the one to make decisions. Chapter 113: Passionate elderly people, young people without martial ethics [Seeing everyone like this, you didn¡¯t refuse and quickly made a n.] [You told everyone to first restore their own states.] [You decided that once everyone was back to their best condition, you would force your way through the Desert of Death.] [Actually, you had also considered breaking through the Valley of mes.] [After all, you knew clearly that beyond the Valley of mes was the Great Wilderness, which was much safer than the Dragon Tomb on the other side of the Desert of Death.] [However, you also knew that the Demonic Phoenix in the Valley of mes was stronger than the Demonic Dragon.] [So, you decided to pick the easier target first.] [If it wasn¡¯t too difficult to deal with, you could always try the Valley of mester.] [In the blink of an eye, three months passed.]N?v(el)B\\jnn[Everyone had adjusted their states, and your group set off towards the Desert of Death with great vigor.] [Along the way, you encountered quite a few Immortal ves from the Immortal Arrival Sect, but their cultivation levels were not high. The strongest were only at the second or third level of Tribtion Crossing, and you easily killed them.] [As for the Immortal ves at the ninth level of Tribtion Crossing, they did not appear.] [Not long after entering the Desert of Death, the Demonic Dragon unsurprisingly came out to stop you.] [You exchanged a smile with your father and moved towards the Demonic Dragon together.] [Yes, this time, you were going to fight alongside your father, Jiang Fushan.] [At this moment, although your Immortal Dao cultivation was only at the first level of Tribtion Crossing, your Martial Dao cultivation had reached the fifth level of Semi-Saint.] [But you cultivated the Divine Dao, allowing you to convert Primordial Energy and spiritual energy interchangeably. Coupled with your killing intent, the Law of Thunder, and the Silent Destruction Fist, your actualbat power far exceeded Old Li¡¯s.] [You were confident that you could defeat an ordinary ninth-level Tribtion Crossing opponent.] [As for your father, he had reached the peak of Tribtion Crossing, and due to years of consuming Heavenly Thunder from beneath Spine Mountain, his physical body was stronger than ever.] [Most crucially, he had also mastered a trace of the Law of Thunder, just like you.] [So, this time, you were ambitious.] [You didn¡¯t just want to defeat the Demonic Dragon; you wanted to kill it, eat its flesh, and drink its blood to enhance yourself.] [As you and your father Jiang Fushan approached the Demonic Dragon, the others were also engaged in battle with Demonic Pythons.] [Old Li, following your instructions, went to the bottom of the desert to search for a formation rift!] [This was your backup n. You thought that if something unexpected happened, as long as Old Li found the formation rift in advance, you could escape the Southern Regions in time.] [But if nothing went wrong, you still wanted to kill the Demonic Dragon and then try breaking through the Valley of mes.] [In fact, you believed that with you and your father working together, you had a good chance of making it through the Valley of mes.] [In the blink of an eye, you and your father Jiang Fushan were already in front of the Demonic Dragon.] [Looking at the Demonic Dragon¡¯s massive body, you licked your lips, thinking, ¡°How long could thisst as food?¡±] [Just as you were lost in thought, your father, with his fiery temper, couldn¡¯t hold back any longer.] [You heard him shout, ¡°Fight!¡± and then charge at the Demonic Dragon.] [Watching your father, you pursed your lips and sighed, ¡°Old folks these days are so passionate, not steady at all!¡±] [But despite yourints, you didn¡¯t hesitate and quickly followed your father Jiang Fushan to attack the Demonic Dragon.] [After all, this was a two-on-one fight, your specialty, and you couldn¡¯t fall behind.] [The battle with the Demonic Dragon began, and you and your father Jiang Fushan quickly gained the upper hand.] [However, your father looked at you strangely, his expression somewhat grim.] [He watched as you continuously attacked the Demonic Dragon¡¯s private parts, thinking, ¡°Is this how you fight? Do young people have no sense of martial ethics these days?¡±] [But you felt no shame, instead feeling proud, even giving your father a thumbs-up during a brief respite.] [You thought that although the main credit for gaining the upper hand was yours, your father¡¯s contribution was also significant.] [After all, he was the main attacker, drawing the fire, giving you the opportunity to move around and attack the Demonic Dragon¡¯s weak points!] [Such perfect coordination without prior practice made you feel that you and your father were truly worthy of being father and son.] [Just as you were feeling proud, the Demonic Dragon let out a long roar and began to flee.] [There was no way you and your father Jiang Fushan would let the Demonic Dragon escape, so you immediately gave chase.] [But along the way, numerous Demonic Pythons sacrificed themselves to cover the Demonic Dragon¡¯s retreat, adding some obstacles to your pursuit.] [Before long, you saw the Demonic Dragon retreat into itsir.] [Seeing this, you sneered, ¡°Huh, do you think you can survive by running back to yourir?¡±] [So, you and your father exchanged a nce and charged into the dragon¡¯sir.] [Once inside, you saw the Demonic Dragon devouring dragon eggs!] [Isn¡¯t there a saying that even a tiger won¡¯t eat its cubs? What is this Demonic Dragon doing now?] [And even if the Demonic Dragon devours the dragon eggs, does it think it can survive?] [You felt a bit disdainful.] [But soon, your disdain turned into shock.] [Because you saw the Demonic Dragon¡¯s body undergoing continuous changes.] [The originally earthy yellow dragon scales now had a trace of gold.] [Besides that, its body was still growing.] [Most importantly, its cultivation level was also increasing.] [From the original ninth level of Tribtion Crossing, it had now reached the peak of Tribtion Crossing and was still growing.] [You were now utterly confused.] [Could devouring its own dragon eggs really bring such a huge improvement to the Demonic Dragon?] [Suddenly, you thought of a possibility: these dragon eggs were not the Demonic Dragon¡¯s!] [If the Demonic Dragon¡¯s bloodline was impure, devouring a more pure-blooded Demonic Dragon Egg could indeed lead to evolution and significant improvement.] [You thought this was the most likely scenario.] [After all, you had devoured these dragon eggs in previous simtions, and their energy was not this exaggerated, not enough to support the enhancement of a ninth-level Tribtion Crossing Demonic Dragon.] [And now, the Demonic Dragon¡¯s improvement was visible to the naked eye, so the only possibility was bloodline evolution.] [You cursed inwardly, ¡°Damn it! If I had known, I would have eaten the dragon eggs first.¡±] [But who could have thought these dragon eggs weren¡¯t the Demonic Dragon¡¯s? Being deceived was inevitable!] [At this point, there was no use in saying more!] [Without hesitation, you shouted, ¡°Fight!¡± and charged up!] [You were no gentleman; you wouldn¡¯t let the Demonic Dragon finish its enhancement and then have a fair fight.] [Now, you had to kill it quickly before it finished enhancing.] [Your father Jiang Fushan, seeing you charge up first, naturally wouldn¡¯t stand by.] [The two of you once again engaged in battle with the Demonic Dragon.] [But this time, you found it hard to overpower the Demonic Dragon.] [Because not only had its cultivation level increased, but its physical body had also significantly strengthened.] [The Demonic Dragon¡¯s body was already strong, and now it was even stronger, making it difficult to injure it with ordinary attacks.] [In fact, this was inevitable, as the demonic race was known for their powerful bodies.] [And as the battle dragged on, the Demonic Dragon¡¯s strength continued to increase, and it was on the verge of breaking through to the Immortal Realm.] [For a moment, the pressure was on your side.] Chapter 114: Today, I finally understand who I am "Seeing the situation, you and your father, Jiang Fushan, fought with increasing fervor, determined to y the Demonic Dragon before it could break through." "However, the Demonic Dragon''s hide was thick and tough. Even with all your strength, you and your father couldn''t kill it quickly." "In the blink of an eye, a day had passed, and the battle with the Demonic Dragon continued." "By now, the Demonic Dragon was covered in wounds, but its aura had only grown more terrifying." "¡®Roar!¡¯ With a dragon roar that echoed through the heavens, tribtion clouds gathered in the sky, apanied by thunderous booms." "Your heart sank. ¡®No, the tribtion for bing an immortal!¡¯" "You still hadn''t managed to kill the Demonic Dragon before it could break through." "Now that the tribtion had arrived, continuing to fight the Demonic Dragon would make you targets of the Immortal Dao''s wrath!" "Thus, you shouted, ¡®Dad, retreat!¡¯""You wanted to call your father, Jiang Fushan, to retreat together." "After all, you thought, you could forgo the dragon meat and find the formation''s crack to leave the Southern Regions." "Just as you were about to withdraw from the battlefield, you heard your fatherugh heartily, ¡®Fight!¡¯" "Then, he charged at the Demonic Dragon, which was undergoing the tribtion!" "WTF!" You watched your father, Jiang Fushan, in disbelief, your pupils contracting." "This Demonic Dragon is undergoing the tribtion to be an immortal! Dad, are you crazy? Charging into the tribtion like that?" "At that moment, your father, Jiang Fushan, sent you a message." "He told you to quickly find the formation''s crack. He would do his best to stall the Demonic Dragon, preventing it from sessfully crossing the tribtion!" "Now you understood your father, Jiang Fushan''s intention. He wasn''t being reckless; he had a n!" "He knew very well that if the Demonic Dragon seeded in crossing the tribtion and you hadn''t found the formation''s crack to leave the Southern Regions, you would all die at the Demonic Dragon''s ws." "Your father, Jiang Fushan, aimed to dy the Demonic Dragon''s sess, or at least cause it some trouble, slowing its breakthrough." "This way, you and Old Li would have more time to find the formation''s crack." "With this in mind, you nced at your father, Jiang Fushan, and without hesitation, turned and ran to search for the formation''s crack at the bottom of the desert." "You thought that as long as you found the exit quickly, there might still be a chance to survive." "If the Demonic Dragon seeded in crossing the tribtion, survival would be slim." "At that point, you might not withstand the Demonic Dragon''s attacks."N?v(el)B\\jnn "Of course, this wasn''t your greatest fear. What you feared most were the giant hand and foot that could cover the sky." "After all, in previous instances, whenever someone in the Southern Regions became an immortal, the region was attacked." "You weren''t sure if the Demonic Dragon''s tribtion would also attract powerful beings to attack the Southern Regions." "Although the Demonic Dragon was captured by a powerful being to guard the sealing formation, you thought its tribtion might still be unavoidable." "As for the reason? The Demonic Dragon had always guarded the dragon egg, and it didn''t seem to be its own." "So, you thought that if the Demonic Dragon had devoured the dragon egg, it would have had the chance to be an immortal long ago." "But it hadn''t done so. You thought maybe it knew that crossing the tribtion to be an immortal would be dangerous!" "Of course, these were just your guesses." "But regardless, you didn''t want to take the risk." "An hour passed in the blink of an eye, and the Demonic Dragon''s tribtion continued, with the sounds of battle asionally ringing out from within the tribtion." "You knew this meant your father was still trying to stop the Demonic Dragon." "By now, you had reunited with Old Li, and the two of you were working together to dig through the yellow sands of the Desert of Death, searching for the formation''s crack hidden at the bottom." "Soon, you saw another patch of tribtion clouds forming in the sky." "You frowned slightly, a sense of foreboding rising in your heart." "Because you felt that the tribtion clouds didn''t seem to be summoned by the Demonic Dragon." "They seemed to be targeting your father, Jiang Fushan." "It didn''t take long for you to realize your feeling was correct." "It was your father, Jiang Fushan, who had summoned the tribtion for bing an immortal." "Having already reached the peak of Tribtion Crossing, he found an opportunity to break through to immortality during the battle." "Old Li also noticed this and was extremely excited, thinking that if your father became an immortal, the Demonic Dragon, even if it reached the immortal realm, wouldn''t be a threat." "But your heart grew heavier." "Originally, the Demonic Dragon''s tribtion might have attracted powerful beings to intervene." "But now, with your father also summoning the tribtion for bing an immortal, there was no doubt¡ªthe Southern Regions were doomed." "You knew that everyone''s lives were now on a countdown." "Once the tribtion ended and the powerful beings intervened, there would be no chance left." "So, you stopped paying attention to your father''s battle." "You called Old Li to speed up the search for the formation''s crack." "Two hourster, you saw a crack in the light shield at the bottom of the desert and breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, you found it in time!" "You shouted to your father, ¡®Dad, hurry, leave the Southern Regions!¡¯" "You weren''t sure if it was possible to leave the Southern Regions during the tribtion, but you thought it was worth a try." "But your father, Jiang Fushan, just looked at you, shook his head, and sighed, ¡®Today, I finally understand who I am. Feng''er, I can''t leave!¡¯" "After saying this, your father, amidst the tribtion, waved his hand and threw you and the other cultivators of Spine Mountain into the formation''s crack." "All of you left the Southern Regions, leaving him behind alone." "After leaving the Southern Regions, you and Old Li, along with the others, arrived at the Dragon Tomb." "As soon as you entered the Dragon Tomb, it felt like stepping into another world. Dragon corpses were scattered everywhere, and the atmosphere was eerie. Everyone was on high alert." "But you stood there, stunned." "You were still pondering your father''s words, ¡®Today, I finally understand who I am.¡¯ What did he mean?" "You wondered if your father, Jiang Fushan, had another identity." "Was he not a pawn of the powerful beings? Or did he realize he was a pawn?" "Or was there some other possibility?" "For a moment, your thoughts were in turmoil." "After a long time, you patted your forehead and stopped thinking about it." "You decided to think about these thingster." "After all, this ce was not safe." "Soon after, several low-level cultivators from Spine Mountain were affected by the resentment in the area and attacked those around them." "Fortunately, you were prepared and quickly subdued them, knocking them all unconscious." "Then, you and the others, carrying the unconscious, moved forward into the distance." Chapter 115: Simulation ended, some conclusions [Half a day passed in the blink of an eye.] [At this moment, you just finished a battle, killing a vengeful Dragon Soul at the Tribtion Crossing Realm.] [Such battles have urred dozens of times in the past half day.] [Fortunately, yourbat strength is formidable, so the journey has been rtively safe!] [Shortly after the battle ended, you suddenly felt the void shaking, apanied by the sound of dragon roars one after another.] [From these dragon roars, you seemed to sense a feeling of sorrow.] [You remained vignt, thinking that the numerous Dragon Souls you had in had attracted arge number of them to attack.] [Quickly, you realized you were wrong.] [Indeed, arge number of Dragon Souls appeared, but they did not attack you.][Instead, they howled at the sky and then one by one turned into nothingness.] [What is going on?] [Are they performing a suicide show in front of you?] [You felt utterly confused.] [As more Dragon Souls turned into nothingness, the shaking of the void became more intense.] [Finally, with a "boom," the void shattered, and the Dragon Tomb space copsed.] [Instantly, you seemed to see light shining in.] [You saw a giant hand in the distance, grasping a Demonic Dragon, continuously extracting something from it!] [But the lightsted less than a moment.] [You were swept into a void storm.] [In less than a minute, all the cultivators from Spine Mountain perished, leaving only you and Old Li struggling to survive.] [Two minutester, Old Li was torn apart by the void storm.] [A dayter, you also died in the void storm.] [You died at the age of 120!] [This simtion has ended.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [You can choose two rewards from this simtion: Taotie Divine Body (Talent), Law of Thunder (Beginner), Divine Dao Cultivation.] [Taotie Divine Body (Talent)]: Costs 1000 origin values. [Law of Thunder (Beginner)]: Costs 50,000 origin values. (Note: If already cultivated, it cannot be enhanced further.) [Divine Dao Cultivation]: Costs 20,000 origin values; includes Immortal Dao Cultivation (First level of Tribtion Crossing) and Martial Dao Cultivation (Fifth level of Semi-Saint). Jiang Yifeng stared at the end of the simtion, momentarily unable to react. That was too sudden. How did he encounter a void storm? Jiang Yifeng had some understanding of void storms. In the Immortal Dao inheritance he had received earlier, there were memories rted to this. He knew that a void storm was an extremely powerful disaster. Generally, void storms only urred deep within space or when space shattered. And the power of a void storm, even the weakest kind, could threaten the life of an Immortal Realm expert. After finally leaving the Southern Regions, he died in a void storm. Jiang Yifeng was speechless. But he felt that this was not a coincidence. The simtor showed that the void shattered and space copsed. Doesn''t this prove that the Dragon Tomb was actually a small world? And before the space copsed, why did those Dragon Souls all cry out in sorrow? Also, the simtion mentioned seeing a giant hand grasping a Demonic Dragon, extracting something from it. Could that Demonic Dragon be the one from the Desert of Death in the Southern Regions? As for what the simtor said was being extracted? Jiang Yifeng instinctively felt that this might be rted to the copse of the Dragon Tomb. But what exactly, he did not know. After all, Jiang Yifeng''s current strength and knowledge were not enough to support more spection. "Forget it, let''s choose the rewards first!" Jiang Yifeng stopped thinking about it and looked at the simtion rewards. There were three rewards this time. But the Law of Thunder (Beginner) had already been obtained through a deep simtion and could not be enhanced further. So, no need to consider it. "I choose Taotie Divine Body (Talent) and Divine Dao Cultivation." [Ding, you have obtained Taotie Divine Body (Talent), deducting 1000 origin values, remaining origin values.] [Ding, you have obtained Divine Dao Cultivation, deducting 20,000 origin values, remaining origin values.] Two minutester, all rewards were extracted. Jiang Yifeng felt his cultivation level, and his sense of security increased significantly. However, this time he did not be overconfident. After all, this simtion had taught him many things. He clearly understood that until he reached the level of a great power, he could only struggle to survive. In fact, this simtion was not the longest in terms of time. But Jiang Yifeng felt that this was definitely the most eventful simtion so far. At the beginning of this simtion, his simted self was arrogantly robbing the Immortal Arrival Sect in the Southern Regions. Then he persuaded Old Li and others from Spine Mountain to consume the underground Heavenly Thunder. Finally, due to miscalcting the strength of the Immortal Arrival Sect''s branch, he encountered a group of Immortal ves at the ninth level of Tribtion Crossing. So, he used a one-time talent to leave the Southern Regions and arrived in the "Eastern Regions." In the "Eastern Regions," there was nothing special at first, just traveling around gathering information. Unable to obtain any information, he joined the Celestial Verdant Sect. Butter, when he broke through to Tribtion Crossing, Bai Moyu discovered he was not from the "Eastern Regions." After revealing some information, Bai Moyu threw his simted self back to the Southern Regions. Then he tried to return to the "Eastern Regions" but was thrown back into the Southern Regions by the Mystic Turtle, who warned him not to approach. He then returned to Spine Mountain, consumed the underground Heavenly Thunder, rescued Old Li and others, and finally ventured into the Desert of Death. After leaving the Desert of Death, he reached the Dragon Tomb, encountered the copse of the Dragon Tomb space, and died in the void storm. It can be said that this simtion was truly full of ups and downs. But because of these experiences, Jiang Yifeng gained a lot of information. For example: The Great Abyssal Kingdom''s branch of the Immortal Arrival Sect has a ninth-level Tribtion Crossing expert. Of course, this is no longer important, as Jiang Yifeng''s current strength is no longer afraid of a ninth-level Tribtion Crossing expert. But other information is extremely important. One of the key pieces of information was the Southern Regions'' coordinate map learned from Bai Moyu. Jiang Yifeng felt that this map was highly valuable. Although he left the Desert of Death and seemed to reach the Dragon Tomb instead of the Northern Regions, Jiang Yifeng felt that this did not mean the map was wrong. Perhaps the Dragon Tomb leads to the Northern Regions. After all, it is reasonable for there to be some barriers between each region. Besides the Southern Regions'' coordinate map, there was also the sealing formation set up by Bai Moyu. The exact reason is unclear, but Jiang Yifeng spected it was for Poison Cultivation. However, something went wrong, causing other great powers to intervene when an Immortal Realm expert appeared in the Southern Regions. Or perhaps the target of Bai Moyu''s Poison Cultivation was not an Immortal Realm expert but an extraordinary genius who could escape the deadly strike of a great power. Additionally, he learned that the Mystic Turtle was also in cahoots with Bai Moyu. The formation spirit of the sealing formation mentioned in previous simtions was likely a lie by the Mystic Turtle; there was no formation spirit. The most crucial information was that besides Bai Moyu, other great powers of the Nine Mystic Realm had betrayed, aiming to seize the fragments of the Heavenly Dao from the Nine Mystic Realm. ... It can be said that this simtion brought Jiang Yifeng immense gains. Summarizing all this information made Jiang Yifeng feel a bit dizzy. He rubbed his forehead and stopped thinking. Finally, he fell asleep immediately! Chapter 116: Jiang Yifengs Grand Plan When Jiang Yifeng woke up, he realized it was already the next day. Stepping out of his room, he nced at the unfinished eighth-grade defensive formation. He kept pondering in his heart whether he should continue. Previously, he had nned to set up an eighth-grade formation to protect the Jiang Family Mansion. That way, he could reveal his cultivation level. After all, in the Southern Regions, there was no one who could match him. Of course, it wasn''t that he wanted to show off, but the Simtor could no longer exchange ordinary mortal items for origin values. And the Simtor required a lot of origin values to upgrade. Without robbing the Immortal Arrival Sect, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t think of a better way. So, he had initially nned to expose his cultivation and rob the Immortal Arrival Sect of various extraordinary items to exchange for origin values.But now, Jiang Yifeng was a bit hesitant. Previously, he thought that as long as the Southern Regions didn''t produce an immortal, those powerful figures wouldn''t take action. But now, he wasn''t so sure. After all, Bai Moyu''s words were very clear: those powerful figures were plotting to seize the Heavenly Dao of the Nine Mystic Realm. And Bai Moyu also said that Jiang Yifeng had fragments of the Heavenly Dao on him. Jiang Yifeng was worried that exposing himself too much might attract those powerful figures. But soon, he shook his head and sneered, "Overthinking!" He felt he was worrying too much. In previous simtions, he had caused such a bigmotion, robbing the Immortal Arrival Sect everywhere, and no powerful figures took action. Jiang Yifeng thought that those powerful figures weren''t always watching the Southern Regions. They probably only paid attention when they sensed a tribtion for bing an immortal. Otherwise, it was hard to exin why they only took action when someone in the Southern Regions became an immortal. At the same time, Jiang Yifeng also thought that perhaps their conditions for seizing the Heavenly Dao were rted to someone bing an immortal. After figuring this out, Jiang Yifeng didn''t hesitate and continued to set up the unfinished eighth-grade defensive formation. Not long after, he suddenly stopped what he was doing. He seemed to have thought of something, pped his forehead, and muttered to himself. "No, setting up aplex eighth-grade defensive formation takes too long." Jiang Yifeng realized that setting up aplex eighth-grade formation required building multiple eighth-grade formations to form abination. Although such a formation was strong, it still couldn''tpare to a ninth-grade formation. He thought that spending a lot of time setting up aplex eighth-grade formation was not as good as quickly improving his Formation Dao in the simtion and then setting up a higher-grade formation. This way, he might even save some time in reality. After figuring this out, Jiang Yifeng changed his approach and didn''t set up aplex eighth-grade formation. Instead, he decided to set up an ordinary eighth-grade defensive formation. After all, the previous setup could still be used. Setting up an ordinary eighth-grade defensive formation only required some minor adjustments and could bepleted quickly. Half a dayter, Jiang Yifeng pped his hands and murmured. "That should do it! Next time when my Formation Dao improves, I''ll set up a higher-grade one!" The formation waspleted without any dazzling scenes because Jiang Yifeng hadn''t activated it. Now, the reason he set up this formation was simply because he had already set up a lot before and didn''t want to waste it, so he casually modified it into an ordinary eighth-grade formation. There''s a high chance that after the next simtion, he would rece it. Moreover, the key point was that this formation couldn''t defend against the Tribtion Crossing stage. If he showed off too much, it might attract unnecessary trouble. In the following days, Jiang Yifeng became idle again. Every day, he went to the Pleasure House to listen to music, enjoying what he felt were his remaining peaceful days. A week passed in the blink of an eye. Jiang Yifeng returned to his room and silently chanted. "Start the simtion!" [Consuming one simtion attempt, remaining attempts: 0] [Drawing a purple talent costs 100 origin values, drawing an orange talent with a chance costs 1000 origin values. Please choose!] "Choose to draw an orange talent with a chance." [Ding, deducting 1000 origin values, talent being randomly drawn, remaining origin values...] [Congrattions to the host for obtaining the orange talent: Pill Dao Saint Hand.] [Pill Dao Saint Hand]: You possess an innate, supreme talent in Pill Dao. [Obtained one-time talent: Eye of the Heavens.] [Eye of the Heavens]: After your death, you will transform into a giant eye overlooking all beings. (Note: Can only be maintained for three days.) Pill Dao Saint Hand, just by looking at it, one could tell it was a talent for alchemists, and it was even an orange talent. It seemed that if he were to study Pill Refining Technique, he would surely progress rapidly. Jiang Yifeng looked at this talent. For a moment, he was in a dilemma. Should he change his n? In the end, he shook his head, having made up his mind. Although Pill Refining Technique was good, it wasn''t what he urgently needed right now. This time, he could keep this talent, but there was no need to start learning immediately. At this moment, the electronic voice of the Simtor sounded again.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [Ding: Would you like to choose a talent from the talent pool?] [Talent pool contains talents: Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root, Absolute Rationality.] "Don''t choose!" Jiang Yifeng still chose to refuse. Although Absolute Rationality was good, Jiang Yifeng felt he should rely on himself. The most crucial point was that this time, Jiang Yifeng had a big n for the simtion, and he didn''t want the Absolute Rationality talent to interfere. After making his choice, he officially started the simtion. [The 26th simtion begins!] As soon as the words appeared on the Simtor. Jiang Yifeng silently chanted, "Start deep simtion for fifty years!" Yes, this was his big n. This time, Jiang Yifeng wanted to personally experience the simtion process. No matter the good or the bad, he would ept it. Because he had deeply realized his shorings. His overly cautious personality was actually not suitable for cultivation. Once in battle, he always thought of only fighting when he had the advantage. How could such a person have the heart of a strong cultivator? So, Jiang Yifeng wanted to change. He wanted to gain more experience, more knowledge, and greater courage through deep simtion. As soon as Jiang Yifeng called for the deep simtion, the electronic voice of the Simtor sounded. [Ding, starting deep simtion for fifty years, deducting origin values, remaining origin values...] In an instant, Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness entered the simtion. He looked around his room, everything was exactly the same as in reality. If it weren''t for the fact that he couldn''t sense the presence of the Simtor in the simtion, he might have had a hard time distinguishing whether this was a simtion or reality. After a moment of reflection, Jiang Yifeng picked up a pen and wrote a letter to his family, then left Green Hills City. However, as soon as he stepped out of Green Hills City, he was confused. "Which way is south?" Fortunately, Jiang Yifeng wasn''t someone who cared about saving face. Since he couldn''t figure it out, he asked others for help. Eventually, with the help of an old farmer, he determined the direction. Flying southward at high speed, Jiang Yifeng soon encountered a situation. After passing through two cities, he was stopped. Seeing the man in ck before him, Jiang Yifeng used his Eye of Insight to check his information. [Chu Xuan: Third level of Tribtion Crossing, Elder of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] Chapter 117: First personal experience of combat As expected, they are from the Immortal Arrival Sect. Jiang Yifeng wasn''t surprised. Using the Eye of Insight to check was just to confirm. Now that their identity was confirmed, Jiang Yifeng felt a bit nervous. Although the simtion had shown that he could contend with a ninth-level Tribtion Crossing expert, all his previous battles were just textual simtions. This kind of deep simtion battle was as real as actualbat. In reality, Jiang Yifeng had never experienced such a thing. The most he had done was travel alone using his cultivation, but he had never fought. Chu Xuan saw Jiang Yifeng''s nervous look and sneered with disdain."Heh, with such little courage, you dare to cultivate on your own? You''re courting death!" With that, Chu Xuan casually struck at Jiang Yifeng with his palm. Seeing the iing palm shadow, Jiang Yifeng resisted the urge to flee and awkwardly executed the Silent Destruction Fist. As the Primordial Energy in Jiang Yifeng''s body circted, the Silent Destruction Fist gathered momentum. Eventually, a fist shadow roared towards Chu Xuan''s palm shadow. Time ticked by. In an instant, fist and palm collided. Chu Xuan''s palm shadow was instantly shattered, but Jiang Yifeng''s Silent Destruction Fist continued its momentum towards Chu Xuan. Chu Xuan, who had initially looked down on Jiang Yifeng, suddenly panicked. Seeing the approaching fist shadow, Chu Xuan wanted to dodge, but it was toote. He could only muster all his spiritual energy and strike again, hoping to shatter Jiang Yifeng''s Silent Destruction Fist. Unfortunately, it was all in vain. "Boom!" Chu Xuan''s palm shadow was shattered again, and the Silent Destruction Fist hit Chu Xuan. "Poof!" Chu Xuan turned into a mist of blood. Even in death, Chu Xuan couldn''t understand why his opponent was so strong. It seemed like Jiang Yifeng wasn''t using spiritual energy, but the power was even greater. In Chu Xuan''s eyes, Jiang Yifeng was just a first-level Tribtion Crossing cultivator. His cultivation was lower, and he had seemed so nervous earlier, looking like an easy target. This was why Chu Xuan had initially struck casually and underestimated Jiang Yifeng. It wasn''t until Jiang Yifeng made his move that Chu Xuan realized something was wrong, as he discovered Jiang Yifeng wasn''t using spiritual energy. But if it wasn''t Immortal Dao spiritual energy, what was it? Indeed, Chu Xuan didn''t know that Martial Dao could cultivate Primordial Energy, and perhaps even the Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect didn''t know. After all, the decline of Martial Dao wasn''t recent. If you trace it back, the decline of Martial Dao predates the great war in the Nine Mystic Realm. Besides a few old monsters, not many people knew the limits of Martial Dao. Most people only knew the initial stages of Martial Dao and were unaware that it could also cultivate Primordial Energy. Martial Dao cultivation was slow and difficult, requiring a lot of resources, and it didn''t increase lifespan in the early stages. Reaching the Condensing Yuan Realm was quite challenging. So, even the powerful beings of the Immortal Realm didn''t deliberately stop people from practicing Martial Dao. After all, the early stages of Martial Dao didn''t increase lifespan, and the rare treasures were controlled by the Immortal Arrival Sect. How far could a mortal get in Martial Dao after decades of practice? In the end, Chu Xuan was a victim of the arrogance of the powerful beings of the Immortal Realm! Unfortunately, Chu Xuan would never know this in his lifetime. Of course, Jiang Yifeng didn''t know these things either. At this moment, Jiang Yifeng was still staring nkly at his fist. "So this is what fighting feels like?" "Although the sight of blood mist from death is a bit disgusting." "But the feeling of winning a fight is really exhrating!" Jiang Yifeng marveled in his heart. After a brief reminiscence, he didn''t linger and continued southward. In the following days, he encountered several Immortal ves from the Immortal Arrival Sect. But with the experience of his first battle, Jiang Yifeng became more adept at fighting. After multiple battles, Jiang Yifeng found that he no longer felt fear before a fight.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om He couldn''t help but smile. He had improved! This was the result he wanted from entering deep simtion. A few dayster, Jiang Yifeng arrived at the Endless Sea. His purpose for leaving Green Hills City wasn''t to kill Immortal ves and gainbat experience; those were just side benefits. His real destination was the Endless Sea. Upon arriving, Jiang Yifeng took a deep breath and walked towards the sea. Soon, Jiang Yifeng saw towering waves rising in the Endless Sea. A mountain-sized Mystic Turtle emerged from the water. Jiang Yifeng knew the Mystic Turtle was with Bai Moyu. They were here to cultivate poison in the Southern Regions. But he didn''t mention these matters. Instead, he looked at the Mystic Turtle and shouted out the prepared script. "Senior, I know you are also forced into this. We are all on the same side, all wanting to escape from the Southern Regions. I hope you can help me out." "I have some knowledge of formations and wish to study the sealing formation here." After Jiang Yifeng shouted these words, the Mystic Turtle indeed didn''t make things difficult for him, only giving him a deep look. Then, Jiang Yifeng finally arrived at the small ind in the Endless Sea as he had wished. After thanking the Mystic Turtle, he headed towards the depths of the ind. This was Jiang Yifeng''s original n. This deep simtion was primarily to improve his Formation Dao. Because whether in simtion or reality, improving his Formation Dao was the most beneficial. Jiang Yifeng believed that setting up a formation capable of resisting Tribtion Crossing experts in reality would protect the Jiang Family Mansion. In the simtion, having stronger Formation Dao abilities might allow him to repair the life-saving formation left by Senior Lu Wuya. If he could elevate his Formation Dao to a higher level, he might even be able to break the sealing formation. So, improving his Formation Dao was the most crucial part of this deep simtion for Jiang Yifeng. Time flew by, and ten years passed in the blink of an eye. During these ten years, Jiang Yifeng sessfully reached the level of a ninth-grade Formation Master. This deepened his understanding of formations. When he looked at the sealing formation again, he was filled with awe. This formation was more advanced than he had imagined. Now that he was a ninth-grade Formation Master, one step away from bing an Immortal Formation Master, he could only see a small part of the formation talismans in the sealing formation. "Sigh!" Finally, Jiang Yifeng sighed. He wondered what level of Formation Master Bai Moyu was to set up this formation. If he could learn formations from Bai Moyu, his progress would surely be rapid. Unfortunately, Bai Moyu''s stance was very ambiguous. Learning formations from him was almost impossible. After taking a deep look at the sealing formation, Jiang Yifeng didn''t stay in the Endless Sea any longer. He felt that breaking through to an Immortal Formation Master wasn''t something he could achieve in this simtion. So, he decided to try other things. After leaving the Endless Sea, Jiang Yifeng headed north. A few dayster, he returned to Green Hills City. After a brief reunion with his father, Jiang Yifeng left again. This time, his destination was the west. Chapter 118: The Killing Intent of the Great Achievement Realm It''s worth mentioning that during this small gathering, Jiang Yifeng left a storage ring for his father. Inside the storage ring, there were arge number of spirit stones. However, Jiang Yifeng didn''t exin this directly, instead saying that his father would understand in a few years. Leaving Green Hills City, Jiang Yifeng headed west! Eventually, he arrived at the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords. Seeing the pervasive killing intent in the forest, Jiang Yifeng didn''t hesitate and walked straight in. As soon as he stepped into the outskirts of the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords, he sensed the surrounding killing intent surging towards him. However, Jiang Yifeng himself already possessed a minor mastery of killing intent. The killing intent in the outskirts of the forest didn''t affect him much.So, he continued forward, heading deeper into the forest. As Jiang Yifeng ventured further into the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords, he could clearly feel the killing intent around him growing stronger. After a long while, he stopped. He had reached his limit. Jiang Yifeng felt that if he went any further, he would lose control of his rationality. At this moment, Jiang Yifeng''s eyes were bloodshot, but the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a smile. Because he could already see a White Tiger''s corpse in the distance. This proved that he had reached the depths of the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords. He remembered that in previous simtions, even with minor mastery of killing intent, he couldn''t reach the depths of the forest. Entering would mean losing consciousnesspletely, even with Absolute Rationality, it couldn''t be avoided. But this time, he endured it. Jiang Yifeng understood that it wasn''t his mental strength that had improved. It was his cultivation that had advanced, and his resistance to killing intent had also strengthened. In the following days, Jiang Yifeng stayed in the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords. He trained in killing intent and honed his willpower. Fourteen years passed in the blink of an eye. Jiang Yifeng was stillprehending killing intent when the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords weed another visitor. Wu Youdao arrived at the forest and saw Jiang Yifeng from afar, immersed in the killing intent. His expression turned serious, and he murmured to himself, "Is it him?"N?v(el)B\\jnn Jiang Yifeng, who had beenprehending killing intent, also sensed Wu Youdao''s arrival. At this moment, Jiang Yifeng realized that twenty-four years had passed in the simtion. This made him sigh, feeling that time flies in cultivation. Soon, Wu Youdao cautiously looked at Jiang Yifeng and cupped his hands from a distance. "I am the White Tiger. May I ask which Daoist friend you are the reincarnation of?" Wu Youdao didn''t approach, nor did he engage in small talk with Jiang Yifeng, but instead inquired about his origins. Although Wu Youdao''s current strength was not high, only at the Golden Body Realm in Martial Dao cultivation, his vision from his past life remained, allowing him to roughly gauge Jiang Yifeng''s current cultivation. In Wu Youdao''s eyes, Jiang Yifeng had cultivated from a mortal to the fifth level of Semi-Saint in Martial Dao and the first level of Tribtion Crossing in Immortal Dao in just over twenty years. This was beyond the description of talent. He could only think that Jiang Yifeng, like himself, was the reincarnation of a powerful figure, which exined the rapid progress. Because of this, Wu Youdao didn''t approach Jiang Yifeng. After all, he didn''t know if they were friend or foe. Of course, Wu Youdao wasn''t afraid of Jiang Yifeng either. The Forest of Ten Thousand Swords was essentially his domain; his past life''s corpse was still here, and if he wished, he could borrow the killing intent of his past life to fight at any time. Upon hearing this, Jiang Yifeng was momentarily stunned. Seeing Wu Youdao''s appearance, he almost couldn''t help butugh. He knew this misunderstanding was significant. So, Jiang Yifeng didn''t deceive him but tried to exin, stating that his current cultivation was due to good luck and talent. After exining, Jiang Yifeng even requested Wu Youdao to help him leave the Southern Regions. However, after hearing Jiang Yifeng''s words, Wu Youdao snorted coldly. "Do you take me for a fool, Daoist friend?" Then he slowly retreated, moving away from Jiang Yifeng. Once he reached a safe distance, Wu Youdao passed through the killing intent of the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords and left. Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng was quite speechless. He was telling the truth! Why wouldn''t he believe him? Can''t people have a bit more trust in each other? "Sigh!" In the end, all his words turned into a sigh. Jiang Yifeng''s n to rely on Wu Youdao to leave the Southern Regions failed. Actually, just now, Jiang Yifeng had considered pretending to be the reincarnation of a powerful figure. But besides Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya, he didn''t know the names and deeds of other powerful figures. And since these two had already left the Southern Regions, pretending to be them and seeking Wu Youdao''s help to leave the Southern Regions seemed unconvincing. ncing in the direction where Wu Youdao had left, Jiang Yifeng murmured, "I still have to rely on myself!" So, he didn''t think much more and continued to train in killing intent. Time passed bit by bit. In the blink of an eye, another ten years passed. Jiang Yifeng finally elevated his minor mastery of killing intent to a major mastery. This significantly enhanced his strength once again. Moreover, Jiang Yifeng felt he could venture a bit deeper into the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords. This made him quite excited. He even began to fantasize about passing through the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords and leaving the Southern Regions. Unfortunately, while the idea was good, reality was harsher. Jiang Yifeng only took a dozen steps before being overwhelmed by the killing intent, unable to proceed further. Clearly, the deeper he went, the greater the increase in killing intent. Even though his understanding of killing intent had improved, it was still impossible to pass through the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords. Feeling the current situation, Jiang Yifeng thought for a moment and then left the forest. He felt that with his current cultivation and killing intent strength, it was difficult to leave the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords in this simtion. Since that was the case, he decided to start another n! After leaving the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords, Jiang Yifeng began to fly aimlessly in the Southern Regions. That''s right, Jiang Yifeng didn''t have a specific destination. His goal was simple: to use this deep simtion to map out the entire Southern Regions. After all, in reality, he had hardly left Green Hills City and was very unfamiliar with the Southern Regions. This was actually one of the ns Jiang Yifeng had thought of from the beginning. He knew that he would soon take action in reality. Understanding the entire geography of the Southern Regions was part of his preparation. During his aimless wandering, Jiang Yifeng found Spine Mountain. By this time, it was the thirty-seventh year since the simtion began. Jiang Yifeng met his father, Jiang Fushan, at Spine Mountain. At this time, Jiang Fushan''s cultivation had reached the peak of the Eighth Layer of Tribtion, ready to break through to the ninth level at any moment. Jiang Yifeng knew this was due to the spirit stones he had left for his father earlier. It seemed that soon, his father Jiang Fushan would break through to the ninth level of Tribtion Crossing. Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but smile. After spending a few days with Jiang Fushan, Jiang Yifeng left again. During this small gathering, he informed Jiang Fushan that the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya had issues. He advised his father and Old Li to prepare early. In fact, in this simtion, Jiang Yifeng had time to help repair the formation at Spine Mountain. Although it might not be possible to repair itpletely, there was a good chance of withstanding another Heavenly Thunder, just likest time. However, Jiang Yifeng didn''t want to waste the time of this deep simtion. After all, the cultivation gained from deep simtion couldn''t be directly brought out. Moreover, Jiang Yifeng hoped to venture into the Desert of Death earlier in this simtion. This was also why he had deliberately left resources for his father, Jiang Fushan, earlier. Chapter 119: Ten Thousand Ways to Eat Dragon Meat Why did he want to venture into the Desert of Death earlier? The reason was simple: he was worried that the Dragon Tomb space might copse again if too much time passed. He didn''t want to encounter another void storm. Although he suspected that thest copse of the Dragon Tomb space might have been rted to some extraction from the Demonic Dragon by a powerful being from the Immortal Realm, Jiang Yifeng also couldn''t rule out the possibility that the Dragon Tomb space had simply existed for too long and copsed on its own. So, venturing into the Desert of Death a bit earlier wouldn''t hurt. As for the Demonic Dragon guarding the Desert of Death, with Jiang Yifeng''s current strength, it was no longer a significant obstacle. After leaving Spine Mountain, Jiang Yifeng continued to travel through the Southern Regions. In the blink of an eye, more than three years had passed. Jiang Yifeng had almost traversed every inhabited ce in the Southern Regions, and he had memorized the entire map of the region.All this back and forth had taken only a few years. This made Jiang Yifeng feel that while the Southern Regions might seem vast to mortals, to him now, it was quite small, even a bit cramped. Of course, Jiang Yifeng didn''t know that the current Southern Regions were just a small part of the original Southern Regions. The rest had long been shattered in wars or turned into deste ces like the Desert of Death. At this moment, it had been forty-one years since Jiang Yifeng entered deep simtion. He knew that the eruption of Heavenly Thunder beneath Spine Mountain was imminent. So, without hesitation, he headed straight for Spine Mountain. By coincidence, when he returned to Spine Mountain, he saw the formation set up by Senior Lu Wuya copsing. Heavenly Thunder erupted from the ground. Fortunately, Jiang Yifeng had previously warned Jiang Fushan. Old Li and the others were well-prepared, so the cultivators of Spine Mountain suffered no casualties. After reuniting with the people of Spine Mountain, Jiang Yifeng proposed a bold n to break through the Desert of Death. Everyone turned to look at Jiang Fushan. After all, Jiang Yifeng hadn''t stayed long at Spine Mountain this time, had no prestige, and few knew his true strength. In contrast, Jiang Fushan was now a ninth-level Tribtion Crossing expert. Naturally, everyone hoped Jiang Fushan would make the decision. However, Jiang Fushan had no reason to oppose Jiang Yifeng''s proposal. Thus, the n to break through the Desert of Death was approved without any objections. Months passed in the blink of an eye. Once everyone was in their best condition, they marched boldly toward the Desert of Death. Upon arriving at the Desert of Death, Jiang Yifeng didn''t immediately team up with his father to confront the Demonic Dragon. This time, he sneaked into the dragon¡¯sir alone. Reaching the southwest corner, he punched out. A dragon egg appeared before Jiang Yifeng. Looking at the dragon egg, Jiang Yifeng licked his lips. Although the simtor had shown that he had eaten it before, those were just words! Should he satisfy his craving first? Indeed, Jiang Yifeng felt that the dragon egg no longer had any significant benefits for him. Even if he ate it, it would only satisfy his appetite. After all, during the previous simtion, when he ate the dragon egg, his cultivation was still very low, and it didn''t provide any extraordinary boost, just expanded his Qi Sea. As for the Demonic Dragon being able to enhance its bloodline by consuming the dragon egg, Jiang Yifeng thought that was just a bloodline enhancement. But bloodline enhancements were for the same species, and he was human, not part of the Dragon n, so it was useless to him. Ultimately, Jiang Yifeng tried to put the dragon egg into his storage ring. To his surprise, it went in. Since storage rings couldn''t hold living things, Jiang Yifeng wasn''t sure if the dragon egg counted as a living thing. It seemed that it wasn''t, as it hadn''t started to hatch yet. Since the dragon egg could be stored in the ring, he didn''t need to worry anymore. He decided to take it with him and cook itter when he had some free time. Even if it didn''t boost his cultivation, it would surely make a delicious meal. After finishing everything, Jiang Yifeng didn''t dy any longer. He began to team up with his father, Jiang Fushan, to fight the Demonic Dragon. But this time, even with Jiang Yifeng and Jiang Fushan joining forces, they could only slightly suppress the Demonic Dragon. They didn''t have a significant advantage. The reason was that Jiang Fushan''s strength in this simtion wasn''t as strong asst time. And although Jiang Yifeng was stronger, hisbat experience wascking. This made Jiang Yifeng doubt if he was the same person as shown in the previous simtion. Why did the previous simtion show that he and his father, Jiang Fushan, had suppressed the Demonic Dragon together? He even thought he had yed a major role. It seemed Jiang Yifeng had overestimated himself. Or maybe he was just shameless. Perhaps he had deliberately overlooked something back then! The simtion text showed that he "thought" he had yed a major role. He had just missed the words "thought." Three days passed in the blink of an eye. During these three days, Jiang Yifeng''sbat experience kept improving. At this point, he and Jiang Fushan finally managed topletely suppress the Demonic Dragon. It wouldn''t be long before they could kill it. Sensing the danger, the Demonic Dragon fled rapidly toward itsir. Seeing the Demonic Dragon''s actions, Jiang Yifeng touched his storage ring and sneered inwardly, "Ha, little one, your moves have already been predicted by me!" Half a dayter, the Demonic Dragon was on itsst breath.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om At this moment, Old Li sent a message saying he had found a crack in the formation. Jiang Yifeng nced at the Demonic Dragon. But his hands didn''t stop, gathering all his strength into one punch. This punch had no reservations; once unleashed, Jiang Yifeng felt he might instantly lose hisbat power. But he still unleashed it. Jiang Yifeng himself felt this was the craziest thing he had ever done. Of course, this was also because Old Li had found the crack in the formation. Jiang Yifeng knew that even if he lost hisbat power, his father would protect him. And the purpose of this all-out punch was very simple. He just wanted to eat dragon meat. Never underestimate a foodie''s pursuit of delicious food. Carrying immense primordial energy, killing intent, and the Silent Destruction Fist infused with thews of thunder, Jiang Yifeng unleashed his punch. As soon as the punch was thrown, Jiang Yifeng went limp and fell from the sky. Fortunately, Jiang Fushan caught him in time; otherwise, the desert would have suffered. The Demonic Dragon, already on itsst breath, was hit by Jiang Yifeng''s punch loaded with buffs. A mournful cry echoed. The massive body fell. After a few twitches, it stopped moving. In the Desert of Death, other Demonic Pythons, seeing the Demonic Dragon''s demise, fled in all directions. For a moment, the cultivators of Spine Mountain were all safe. At this moment, everyone looked at Jiang Yifeng in astonishment. They had known Jiang Yifeng was strong, but they never expected him to be this powerful. The Demonic Dragon didn''t die at Jiang Fushan''s hands but at Jiang Yifeng''s. Jiang Yifeng ignored the others'' gazes. He looked at the Demonic Dragon''s corpse, his eyes sparkling. He was already thinking about a thousand ways to cook the dragon meat! Grilling, stir-frying, steaming... which method would be the most delicious? So, he quickly asked his father, Jiang Fushan, to help cut up the Demonic Dragon''s body and store it in the storage ring. As for why Jiang Yifeng didn''t do it himself? Ha, Jiang Yifeng would never admit it was due to exhaustion; he just wanted to lie down. Chapter 120: Jiang Fushan, unable to leave the Southern Regions Twilight descended over the Desert of Death. The people of Spine Mountain had already gathered around a bonfire. Even Old Li, who had been searching for gaps in the formation, had returned to the main group. After all, the demonic dragon guarding the ce was dead! There was no sign of the life-threatening Heavenly Thunder descending anytime soon. With plenty of time to find a way out through the formation''s cracks, everyone rxed considerably. Jiang Yifeng was generous, instructing his father Jiang Fushan to distribute dozens of pounds of dragon meat for everyone to roast and eat. He himself held a few hundred pounds of roasted dragon meat, gnawing on it voraciously. As the dragon meat went down, Jiang Yifeng clearly felt his earlier exhaustion quickly replenished.Moreover, through the devouring power of his Taotie Divine Body, he felt his Martial Dao cultivation improve after digesting all the dragon meat. This was no surprise to Jiang Yifeng. After all, he had fought so hard to kill the demonic dragon, partly to satisfy his appetite. But more importantly, he wanted to use the Taotie Divine Body to enhance his Martial Dao cultivation by eating dragon meat. Three months passed in the blink of an eye. During this time, Jiang Yifeng hadn''t moved an inch, eating continuously for three whole months. A demonic dragon several thousand feet long was finally reduced to just one dragon leg by him. Of course, his gains from eating this way were immense. His Martial Dao cultivation had directly advanced from the fifth level of Semi-Saint to the eighth level of Semi-Saint. Such a speed of improvement was simply unimaginable. It far surpassed the rate of Martial Dao advancement in any of his previous simtions by hundreds of times. However, after reaching the eighth level of Semi-Saint, the effect of eating dragon meat on his cultivation had significantly slowed. Jiang Yifeng thought this was normal. After all, the demonic dragon''s cultivation was at the ninth level of Tribtion Crossing. His current Martial Dao level, the eighth level of Semi-Saint, corresponded to the eighthyer of Tribtion Crossing in the Immortal Dao. He was only one minor realm away from the demonic dragon. At this level, it was reasonable that eating more dragon meat wouldn''t result in rapid improvement. Since he could no longer improve quickly, Jiang Yifeng decided not to eat the remaining dragon leg. No matter how delicious the food, eating it continuously for several months would make anyone sick of it. Besides, Jiang Yifeng thought the dragon meat''s taste was just average. At that moment, Jiang Yifeng noticed the dragon egg in his storage ring. He licked his lips, thinking it was time for a change of vor. Half an hourter, the fragrant steamed dragon egg was ready. After savoring it carefully, Jiang Yifeng gave an honest evaluation. The dragon egg tasted better than the demonic dragon meat. No wonder it had a higher-grade Dragon n bloodline. After finishing the dragon egg, Jiang Yifeng''s strength did not improve as he had expected. However, shortly after, he seemed to feel his blood momentarily turn golden. Jiang Yifeng was taken aback. Could his bloodline be changing? Was he being assimted by the Dragon n bloodline, turning into a dragon-man? Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng quickly examined himself. But after a thorough check, he found everything normal. His blood was still bright red. The earlier sensation seemed like an illusion. This made Jiang Yifeng breathe a sigh of relief. Although he thought being assimted by the Dragon n bloodline might enhance his strength, he still wanted to remain human. After finishing the dragon egg, Jiang Yifeng brushed off the sand on his body, looked at the people waiting for him in the distance, and smiled. "Sorry to keep you all waiting!" In fact, the formation gap in the Desert of Death had been found by Old Li and others two months ago. But because Jiang Yifeng was busy eating dragon meat to enhance his strength, no one had left.N?v(el)B\\jnn After all, if Jiang Yifeng didn''t leave, Jiang Fushan naturally wouldn''t either. And the two of them were the strongest among the group. No one knew what dangers awaited after leaving the Southern Regions. Everyone knew that following the strong was the best choice. So, it wasn''t that others didn''t want to leave; they were just considering their own safety. Without saying much, Jiang Yifeng called out to everyone and headed towards the formation crack at the bottom of the Desert of Death. Soon, everyone entered the crack one after another, leaving the Southern Regions. After everyone had left, Jiang Yifeng and his father Jiang Fushan stepped towards the formation crack together. But the next scene left Jiang Yifeng horrified. He saw his father Jiang Fushan''s figure gradually blur and seem to dissipate as he approached the sealing formation. Jiang Fushan also looked puzzled as he observed his own transformation. But soon, his ears twitched as if he heard something. His puzzled expression gradually faded, reced by understanding. Finally, beforepletely disappearing, Jiang Fushan smiled at Jiang Yifeng and said, "Feng''er, keep going!" With that, Jiang Fushan''s figurepletely blurred and vanished. At this moment, Jiang Yifeng was in a daze. Seeing his father suddenly disappear, Jiang Yifeng felt a surge of sorrow, his eyes moistening. But he knew he was just in a simtion. He kept reminding himself of this. After taking a deep breath, Jiang Yifeng forced himself to calm down. He began to ponder what was happening. Why did this happen? Wasn''t his father supposed to attract the attention of Immortal Realm experts only when he was about to ascend? Jiang Yifeng couldn''t understand why this was happening. Suddenly, he muttered, "No, something''s wrong!" He realized that there was no giant hand or foot covering the sky this time. So, his father''s disappearance shouldn''t be due to an expert''s intervention. But what was the reason? Why did his father dissipate just as he was about to leave the Southern Regions? Was there some other force preventing his father from leaving? Jiang Yifeng couldn''t think of an answer. He felt there must be a lot of information he hadn''t yet uncovered. He kept this matter in mind and stopped thinking about it. Finally, he stepped into the formation crack. As the saying goes, misfortunes nevere singly. Just as Jiang Yifeng stepped into the formation crack and entered the Dragon Tomb, he sensed something was wrong and eximed, "WTF, a void storm!" Although Jiang Yifeng had never seen a void storm, he had read about it in the Immortal Dao inheritance. He believed what he saw was indeed a void storm. So, Jiang Yifeng turned and ran, trying to escape back to the Southern Regions through the formation crack. Unfortunately, it was toote! When he crossed through the formation crack, he had already entered the void storm. At this moment, he was being swept away by the storm, unable to move freely. He could only drift in the storm until death or until the void storm dissipated on its own. After struggling for a while, Jiang Yifeng let out a bitterugh. It seemed this simtion was about to end again. However, Jiang Yifeng didn''t give uppletely. He began to use the void storm to temper his body. He thought that even if the simtion was about to end, any improvement was still an improvement. At this moment, he also pondered the cause of the Dragon Tomb''s copse and the resulting void storm. This time, there was no expert intervention, no one ascending, yet the Dragon Tomb still copsed. Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng seemed to realize something. Chapter 121: Talent Eye of the Heavens triggered He felt that all of this might be rted to the Demonic Dragon and that dragon egg. Perhaps if the Demonic Dragon died and the dragon egg was gone, the Dragon Tomb space would copse. Jiang Yifeng believed that his hypothesis had at least a ny percent chance of being correct. This time, it was Jiang Yifeng himself who killed the Demonic Dragon and ate the dragon egg. In the previous simtion, the dragon egg was devoured by the Demonic Dragon, but in the end, the Demonic Dragon was captured by a powerful being from the Immortal Realm, seemingly extracting something from it. It was highly likely that it had already died. In both simtions, the conditions of the Demonic Dragon''s death and the dragon egg being gone were met. So, the Dragon Tomb space copsed, causing a void storm. However, in previous simtions where he had visited the Dragon Tomb, the Demonic Dragon was fine, the dragon egg was safe, and the Dragon Tomb space did not copse.Therefore, Jiang Yifeng was almost certain that the copse of the Dragon Tomb space was rted to the Demonic Dragon and the dragon egg. After figuring it out, even though his body was still being attacked by the void storm, Jiang Yifeng''s mood eased a bit. He felt that although this simtion was about to end, it had paved a way for the future. He already knew the reason for the copse of the Dragon Tomb space. In the next simtion, he wouldn''t make the same mistake again.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om Afterward, Jiang Yifeng stopped thinking about it and focused entirely on resisting the void storm. In the blink of an eye, three days passed. Jiang Yifeng was on the brink of death. He knew he didn''t have much time left. So, he steeled his heart and used the Taotie Divine Body to swallow arge amount of the void storm. In an instant, Jiang Yifeng''s body was torn apart. But he didn''t die immediately; his Nascent Soul escaped from his body. At the same time, Jiang Yifeng triggered his Random Enlightenment talent. He seemed to sense the fury of the wind and grasped a sliver of the Law of Wind. But this enlightenment came toote. Soon, Jiang Yifeng''s Nascent Soul was also shredded by the void storm. At the moment of his death, a giant eye appeared out of nowhere in the chaos, overlooking everyone. The appearance of this giant eye caused the strong beings in the Nine Mystic Realm, the Immortal Realm, and even many distant realms to be on high alert. Everyone was extremely vignt. At this moment, Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness appeared above the giant eye. He understood that he was already dead. This must be the one-time talent "Eye of the Heavens" triggered by the simtor! He knew he only had three days. So, he didn''t hesitate and began to try to control the Eye of the Heavens. Soon, he discovered that he couldn''t move the giant eye, but he could control its perspective. However, Jiang Yifeng felt that this was enough. He began to use the Eye of the Heavens to observe the entire world, wanting to see the world''s true face. He also wanted to know the situation in the Immortal Realm, the Nine Mystic Realm, and the Southern Regions. ... Three days passed in the blink of an eye. [Ding, deep simtion ended!] [You died at the age of 63.] [This simtion has ended!] [You can exchange for two rewards from this simtion: Pill Dao Saint Hand (Talent), Divine Dao Cultivation, Ninth-Grade Formation Master, Demonic Dragon Meat (1000 kilograms), True Meaning of the Killing Dao (Great Aplishment), Law of Wind (Beginner).] [Pill Dao Saint Hand (Talent)]: Price 1000 origin values.

He didn''t have time to look at the simtion rewards. At this moment, his mind was still filled with the scenes he saw with the Eye of the Heavens in thest three days. During those three days, Jiang Yifeng saw the entire Nine Mystic Realm. Just as Bai Moyu had said before, it was shattered. Now, outside the Southern Regions, there was still war everywhere. The cultivators of the Nine Mystic Realm had not given up. They were still fighting against the people of the Immortal Realm in various ces. Jiang Yifeng also learned that outside the Dragon Tomb was indeed the Northern Regions, but it was already a deste wastnd. In those three days, Jiang Yifeng didn''t see any human figures there. In the Western Regions past the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords, Jiang Yifeng saw that some people from the Nine Mystic Realm were still struggling to hold on, fighting fiercely with the people of the Immortal Realm. Lastly, in the Eastern Regions past the Valley of mes. It couldn''t really be called the Eastern Regions; it was more like the Great Wilderness. Jiang Yifeng confirmed that Bai Moyu was right, the Eastern Regions no longer existed. It had been severed and moved to the south of the Southern Regions. However, perhaps because the Eastern Regions had been severed, Jiang Yifeng saw that the Great Wilderness outside the Valley of mes was rtively safer. Although there were battles there too, they were much more subdued. Besides the situation around the Southern Regions, during those days, Jiang Yifeng also used the Eye of the Heavens to see many farther ces. What he saw was beyond his imagination. He didn''t know what kind of world this was. It was filled with bloodshed, violence, and war everywhere. And the culprits behind all this were from the Immortal Realm. The Immortal Realm was not only invading the Nine Mystic Realm, but its people were also invading other realms simultaneously. The strength of the Immortal Realm was even greater than Jiang Yifeng had originally imagined. But how strong it was, Jiang Yifeng still wasn''t sure. After all, the Eye of the Heavens didn''t give him the ability to discern strength, and his original Eye of Insight had its limits. He couldn''t see through powerful beings, not even those like Shen Wutian, who was a half-step powerful being. Of course, seeing question marks was proof of great strength. But the Eye of the Heavens only allowed him to see for three days. To avoid wasting time, Jiang Yifeng didn''t check each individual''s strength. After recalling the information he gathered with the Eye of the Heavens, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t understand why the Immortal Realm was doing this. They weren''t just invading the Nine Mystic Realm; they were invading many other realms as well. However, Jiang Yifeng thought this might be a good thing for him. After all, the Nine Mystic Realm wasn''t fighting alone. If there was a chance to unite the other worlds invaded by the Immortal Realm, it would undoubtedly form a powerful force. At this moment, Jiang Yifeng remembered what Bai Moyu had said, that the powerful beings of the Nine Mystic Realm had all betrayed them. In the end, he shook his head and mocked himself. "If our own people can betray us, what good is it to unite with outsiders?" Jiang Yifeng stopped thinking about it. He felt that strength was the key. Improving his own strength was the true path. So, he turned his attention to the simtion rewards. Since this was a deep simtion, Jiang Yifeng already mastered the Ninth-Grade Formation Master, True Meaning of the Killing Dao (Great Aplishment), and Law of Wind (Beginner), so he didn''t need to exchange for them. The only things left were talents, cultivation, and Demonic Dragon Meat. Actually, Jiang Yifeng had anticipated that Demonic Dragon Meat would appear in the rewards. He had deliberately not eaten it all in the simtion to see how many origin values it would require for exchange. If it wasn''t too expensive, he would choose the Demonic Dragon Meat. After all, this stuff could be used not only by himself but also by others. And it could be reused in future simtions. Unfortunately, it was too expensive. In the end, Jiang Yifeng made his choice. "I choose Pill Dao Saint Hand (Talent) and Divine Dao Cultivation." Chapter 122: Little Peach, who violently kills Chapter 122: Little Peach, who violently kills [Ding: Congrattions to the host for obtaining the Pill Dao Saint Hand (Talent), deducting 1000 origin values, remaining origin values.] [Obtained Divine Dao Cultivation, deducting 20,000 origin values, remaining origin values.] As the simtor''s notification sounded, Jiang Yifeng''s cultivation continued to rise. A few secondster, the enhancement wasplete. After sensing his progress, Jiang Yifeng pursed his lips. This simtion''s cultivation improvement was a bit too little, only raising his Martial Dao by three minor realms. Jiang Yifeng felt a bit disappointed. However, he knew that this time it was a deep simtion. He hadn''t spent much effort on improving his realms.The main improvements were in theprehension ofws and formations. These two enhancements had actually significantly boosted his overallbat power. Moreover, this simtion had allowed him to memorize the entire map of the Southern Regions. This was also a potential gain, making future simtions and real-life actions more convenient and confident. Besides, this simtion finally gave him realbat experience. He was no longer the person who would think of running away at the sight of a fight. Jiang Yifeng understood that this mental improvement might be the biggest gain from this simtion. At this moment, he noticed that his personal panel had changed once again. [Host: Jiang Yifeng.] [Talents: Eye of Insight, Random Enlightenment, Formation Dao Genius, Yimu Divine Body, Child of Fortune, Heaven Rewards Diligence, Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root, Love Saint, Taotie Divine Body, Pill Dao Saint Hand.] [Divine Dao Cultivation: Tribtion Crossing Realm First Layer (Immortal Dao), Half-Saint Realm Eighth Layer (Martial Dao)] [Secondary Cultivation: Ninth-Grade Formation Master.] [Cultivation Techniques: Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao), Devouring Spirit Art (Immortal Dao), War God Art (Martial Dao)] [Techniques Practiced: Wind Chasing Art (Great Aplishment), Silent Destruction Fist (Small Aplishment).] [Laws and Mysteries: True Meaning of the Killing Dao (Great Aplishment), Law of Thunder (Beginner), Law of Wind (Beginner).] [Possessions: Unknown Immortal Dao Inheritance (Memory), Spirit Stones (pieces), War God Art, Heavenly Profound Art, Wind Chasing Art, Breath Concealing Talisman, Teleportation Jade te.] [Combat Experience Rating: 5 stars; (Note: Full score is ten stars.)] Jiang Yifeng looked at his personal panel, satisfied with most of it. But what was the meaning of this newly appearedbat experience rating? He had undergone deep simtions for decades, participated in numerous battles, and even killed a Demonic Dragon. Yet he hadn''t even reached the passing line? Jiang Yifeng felt quite indignant. He wanted to argue with the simtor. In the end, he decided to let it go, as a magnanimous person, he chose not to bicker with an emotionless system! After organizing his gains. Jiang Yifengy on the bed and fell asleep within seconds. Such a long period of deep simtion had indeed left his spirit somewhat exhausted. Jiang Yifeng slept for two whole days. On the third day, Jiang Yifeng woke up, stretched, and walked out of his room. As soon as he stepped out, he instinctively used his cultivation to rise into the air. This startled the few servants living in the same courtyard as Jiang Yifeng. In an instant, Little Peach and the other two servants all knelt on the ground. They shouted, "Young Master has be an immortal!" Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng pped his forehead. "Damn, I forgot this is reality!" He hadn''t intentionally shown his cultivation. It was just that decades of deep simtion had changed his living habits and ways of doing things. Jiang Yifeng realized he needed to correct this quickly. After all, in the simtion, dying didn''t matter, it wouldn''t affect reality, so he could be reckless. But in reality, he absolutely couldn''t do that! Even though the Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect posed no threat to him, he still had to consider the safety of the Jiang Family. Moreover, Jiang Yifeng wasn''t sure if the powerful beings of the Immortal Realm would investigate the Southern Regions. Although he hadn''t encountered them in the simtion. He couldn''t be sure that those powerful beings had never observed the Southern Regions. What if his previous simtions were just lucky, avoiding the powerful beings'' scrutiny? He had fragments of the Heavenly Dao that those powerful beings wanted. So, Jiang Yifeng thought it best not to reveal his cultivation unless necessary in reality. After all, reality wasn''t a simtion, life onlyes once, and he couldn''t afford to experiment. Even after decades of deep simtion, Jiang Yifeng was still the same Jiang Yifeng. Though he wouldn''t run away before a fight anymore. His cautious nature hadn''t changed much. But, although Jiang Yifeng thought this way. Now that he had already used his cultivation and been seen by these servants. What should he do? Jiang Yifeng''s thoughts wereplicated. He pondered: Should I silence them? But these people were his trusted aides. Otherwise, they wouldn''t be living in the same small courtyard with him. Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng chuckled. Forget it, they''re just a few servants, who would believe them if they spoke out? And even if they did believe, what could they do? He wasn''t afraid of the Immortal Arrival Sect anymore, only the powerful beings of the Immortal Realm. Could these servants possibly get the message to those powerful beings?N?v(el)B\\jnn So Jiang Yifeng thought it wasn''t a big deal. Finally, he made a shushing gesture to the servants and said with a smile. "This is my secret, don''t tell anyone; you wouldn''t want the Young Master to be in danger, right?" Actually, Jiang Yifeng said this on purpose, there was no danger; he was just teasing these servants! After that, Jiang Yifeng didn''t bother with them anymore. However, he didn''t continue flying, instead, hended and walked out of the courtyard. It had been a long time since he visited a Pleasure House to listen to music, so Jiang Yifeng decided to rx today. But when Jiang Yifeng arrived at the Spring Blossom Pavilion, he found it wasn''t open today and was under renovation. In the end, he had to return home disappointed. But when Jiang Yifeng returned to his small courtyard, his expression changed. Blood? Why was there such a strong smell of blood in his courtyard? Jiang Yifeng became alert. He quickly used his Divine Sense to investigate the situation in the courtyard. He wasn''t worried about his own safety. Given his current strength, it was hard for anyone in the Southern Regions to harm him. But this was within the Jiang Family Mansion, he was concerned that a battle might affect the Jiang Family members. After probing, Jiang Yifeng didn''t find any traces of cultivators. But he saw something even more unbelievable. He saw Little Peach holding a pair of scissors, curled up in a corner of the courtyard. Beside Little Peach were the corpses of two servants. Just as Jiang Yifeng was about to return to the courtyard to question Little Peach about what had happened. He saw Little Peach, with tears streaming down her face, looking at his room. She murmured, "Young Master, goodbye!" Then she raised the scissors to her neck. "ng!" The scissors fell to the ground. Little Peach didn''t seed inmitting suicide, as Jiang Yifeng had shot a burst of spiritual energy from afar, stopping her in time. Chapter 123: Carry Absolute Rationality again Chapter 123: Carry Absolute Rationality again "Little Peach, what happened?" Jiang Yifeng appeared in front of Little Peach in an instant, asking with a puzzled expression. Seeing the young master, Little Peach was initially delighted, but her face quickly turned sorrowful. She murmured, "Young Master, they wouldn''t listen to you and kept discussing how you could fly, so I..." Hearing Little Peach''s words, Jiang Yifeng frowned. If that was the case, then Little Peach had killed those servants. Jiang Yifeng didn''t think it was a big deal. After all, disloyal servants who could betray him at any moment weren''t worth keeping around. He hadn''t silenced them before, merely giving them a chance.But why did Little Peach want to kill herself? Before Jiang Yifeng could ask, Little Peach continued, choking on her words, "I also always wanted to share with others that my young master could fly. I was afraid I couldn''t hold it in." "Young Master, I heard that only the dead can keep secrets, so... boohoo." Hearing Little Peach''s words, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but find it both amusing and exasperating. What a silly girl! Jiang Yifeng understood Little Peach''s feelings. When someone close to you achieves something great, who wouldn''t want to show off? But he had strictly forbidden her from spreading the word. He even said that it would be dangerous for him if the news got out. So this girl took it too literally. In the end, it was just a casual remark from him that led to this bloodshed! Jiang Yifeng rubbed Little Peach''s head and sighed. "It''s okay, Young Master trusts you, Little Peach." Afterward, Jiang Yifeng called for the butler, Jiang Dafu, to have the bodies of the dead servants taken away and buried. Jiang Dafu didn''t ask about the cause of their deaths. After all, in this society, the death of servants in their master''s house wasn''t considered a big deal. Having done all this, Jiang Yifeng called Little Peach into his room. After much thought, he decided to teach Little Peach the way of cultivation. Previously, he hadn''t considered this. After all, in the Southern Regions, cultivation wasn''t necessarily a good thing. Except for cultivators like him who could improve through the simtor, others often faced significant dangers, such as encountering Immortal ves. But today''s events made Jiang Yifeng think that perhaps this girl was more suited for cultivation than he was. Because she was ruthless enough to kill without hesitation. Indeed, Jiang Yifeng didn''t resent Little Peach for killing the other two servants. After all, she did it for him, following his orders. She was just a bit too obedient. Jiang Yifeng seriously asked Little Peach if she was willing to cultivate. Although Jiang Yifeng was a half-baked cultivator and couldn''t test for spiritual roots, he could sense spiritual energy. Based on the distribution of spiritual energy around Little Peach, he knew she had the talent for cultivation. Hearing that the young master was willing to teach her the way of cultivation, Little Peach was naturally overjoyed and couldn''t refuse. Jiang Yifeng wasn''t surprised by Little Peach''s response. He just became more serious. He began to exin the consequences of cultivation and the existence of the Immortal Arrival Sect. After finishing, he asked Little Peach once more if she was still willing to cultivate. After much consideration, Little Peach said, "Young Master, I am willing!" But Jiang Yifeng didn''t know that Little Peach was thinking, "So the young master has been through so much hardship and has so many enemies. I must work hard to cultivate and help him in the future!" Then, Jiang Yifeng taught Little Peach the Devouring Spirit Art, left some spirit stone resources, and gave her a Breath Concealing Talisman. At this point, the Breath Concealing Talisman was no longer effective for Jiang Yifeng. His cultivation level had surpassed what the talisman could conceal. But it didn''t matter anymore. After all, Jiang Yifeng''s current strength was beyond the detection of ordinary Immortal ves. However, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t have imagined how much this investment in Little Peach would benefit him in the future. After finishing everything, Jiang Yifeng stopped worrying about Little Peach. Instead, he began to set up formations around the Jiang Family Mansion. He had grown dissatisfied with the eighth-grade formation he had set up before. This time, he wanted to set up a ninth-grade defensive formation. Once this formation was in ce, if his identity as a cultivator were ever exposed, the people within the Jiang Family Mansion would be protected and safe. In fact, Jiang Yifeng had considered teaching his father, Jiang Fushan, how to cultivate. But after thinking it over, he decided against it. His father had too many secrets. He was worried that one wrong move could ruin everything. Seven days passed in the blink of an eye. Jiang Yifeng''s ninth-grade defensive formation was still iplete. But he stopped his work. Currently, there was no immediate danger in reality. Simtion was still the most important thing. Returning to his room, Jiang Yifeng silently recited. "Start simtion!" [Consuming 1 simtion attempt, remaining attempts: 0] [Drawing Purple Talent consumes 100 origin values, probabilistic drawing of Orange Talent consumes 1000 origin values, please choose!] "Choose probabilistic Orange Talent drawing." [Ding, 1000 origin values deducted, talent being randomly drawn, remaining origin values...] [Congrattions, Host has obtained Orange Talent: Mortal Domain!] [Mortal Domain]: Upon activation, it forcibly lowers the cultivation level of both the enemy and oneself to that of a mortal. (Note: This talent can be ignored by those at the Great Principal Golden Immortal Realm and above. Use with caution!) [Detected that the Host''s knowledge is extremely limited. Friendly reminder: Cultivation levels above Tribtion Crossing are: Mortal Immortal, Earth Immortal, Heaven Immortal, True Immortal, Mystic Immortal, Golden Immortal, Supreme Unity Golden Immortal, Great Principal Golden Immortal, Quasi-Saint, Saint...] (Note: The realms are borrowed, but actual strength is based on this book!) Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but roll his eyes. He muttered, "Who are you calling ignorant?" However, Jiang Yifeng''s heart was in turmoil. He hadn''t expected so many realms beyond Tribtion Crossing. Now, he understood the position of Mystic Immortals in the Immortal Realm. After all, he knew that the Mystic Turtle of the Endless Sea was at the Mystic Immortal Realm. Now it seemed that its strength in the Immortal Realm was not low. But such an existence was casually suppressed by a powerful being from the Immortal Realm and made to guard a corner of the sealing formation in the Endless Sea of the Southern Regions. So what realm were these powerful beings from the Immortal Realm? Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng felt an immense pressure. He thought to himself, "With such powerful enemies, I must be even more cautious. Until I have matching strength, I must not let those powerful beings from the Immortal Realm discover me." While Jiang Yifeng was lost in thought, the simtor continued to disy information. [Ding, Host has obtained a one-time talent: Come Here!] [Come Here!]: Designate a target and call their true name to forcibly bring them to your side. (Note: The target''s strength must be below the Saint Realm and within the same space-time.) [Talent Pool: Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root, Absolute Rationality.] [Ding, would you like to choose a talent from the Talent Pool to carry?] Looking at the information from the simtor, Jiang Yifeng fell into deep thought. This talent seemed quite powerful. But how should he use it? For a moment, Jiang Yifeng felt a headache. Finally, he gritted his teeth and silently recited. "I choose to carry Absolute Rationality!" Jiang Yifeng admitted that sometimes he wasn''t as smart as his rational self.N?v(el)B\\jnn He hadn''t yet figured out how to use this new talent. So he decided to let Absolute Rationality make the judgment. However, Jiang Yifeng hoped that Absolute Rationality wouldn''t do anything too extreme. Otherwise, he would never use this talent again. After Jiang Yifeng made his choice, the simtion officially began. [Simtion #27 begins!] Chapter 124: Overlooked clues [With Absolute Rationality, you quickly realize you are in a simtion.] [You do not act rashly but instead begin to recall the abilities of this talent.] [Various possibilities start to flood your mind.] [The one-time talent "Come Here!" is a control ability.] [If used well, it might change your fate.] [You think, what if you let your father Jiang Fushan cross the tribtion to be an immortal, attract the powerful beings from the Immortal Realm, and then pull Bai Moyu over to take the hit? What would happen?] [But soon, you shake your head, dismissing this idea.] [Because you doubt whether this talent would even work on Bai Moyu.] [After all, Bai Moyu could see the fragments of the Heavenly Dao on you.][And ording to your understanding, the fragments of the Heavenly Dao should refer to your talents.] [After all, the only special things about you are your talents and the simtor.] [You think the simtor is unlikely, as you remember Bai Moyu mentioned multiple fragments of the Heavenly Dao.] [The simtor is just one, which doesn''t meet this condition.] [So, would someone who can see the fragments of the Heavenly Dao on you, essentially seeing through your talents, be controlled by your talent?] [The chances are slim!] [Of course, you also know that talents are ranked, and in previous simtions, Bai Moyu saw through your talents.] [But those talents were at most of the Orange level.] [And this one-time talent, you believe, surpasses the Orange level, as it can affect targets with a cultivation level higher than the Mortal Domain of Orange talents.] [So, you''re not sure if this one-time talent would work on Bai Moyu.] [But regardless, such an attempt is too risky.] [If it doesn''t work, you''d be digging your own grave!] [And if it does work? Can Bai Moyu, a powerful figure, resist the many powerful beings of the Immortal Realm? Clearly not, otherwise, he wouldn''t be hiding.] [You think that doing so would only harm Bai Moyu without benefiting you at all, a ssic lose-lose situation.] [In the end, you decide that the talent "Come Here!" should be used in conjunction with specific circumstances.] [After all, a one-time talent should be used at the most critical moment.] [For now, you can''t n this talent very well.] [Then, you recall the Orange talent Mortal Domain, which is clearly abat talent.] [It seems useful, but you think it''s not enough to change your fate.] [After all, its usage is limited to those below the Great Principal Golden Immortal level.] [You don''t know how many strong beings above the Great Principal Golden Immortal level exist in the Immortal Realm.] [But those powerful beings are certainly stronger than this level.] [As for the reason? You also refer to Bai Moyu.] [Bai Moyu could see through your talents before, so at least the Orange talents you had at that time posed no threat to someone of his level.] [If Orange talents were a threat to powerful beings, Bai Moyu would have focused on nurturing or using you in that simtion.] [Instead of sending you back to the Southern Regions for poison cultivation.] [You think that his decision to send you back to the Southern Regions for poison cultivation proves that your talents at that time were not enough to threaten powerful beings.] [Thus, you can deduce that the Orange-level talent Mortal Domain is not enough to affect powerful beings.] [This also leads you to conclude that the cultivation level of powerful beings is above the Great Principal Golden Immortal level.] [In fact, besides reasoning based on Bai Moyu''s strength, you have another thought.] [That is, if powerful beings can shatter the Heavenly Dao of the Nine Mystic Realm in their battles, would they fear the fragments of the Heavenly Dao from the Nine Mystic Realm?] [Clearly not!]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [So, it''s normal that your current talents don''t work on them.] [You wonder if all the talents in the simtion are fragments of the Heavenly Dao from the Nine Mystic Realm?] [If so, how could these talents possibly contend with those powerful beings?] [After all, if theplete Heavenly Dao can be shattered, the pieced-together fragments would be even weaker.] [Suddenly, youugh at yourself and mutter, "Thinking too much!"] [You realize that you''ve been overthinking about talents and almost fell into a trap.] [Whether the talents in the simtor are fragments of the Heavenly Dao from the Nine Mystic Realm is not important at all!] [After all, the greatest function of the simtor is not the talents, but its ability to provide infinite possibilities for you to explore solutions and enhance your strength.] [With this in mind, you stop thinking about how to use talents to deal with someone.] [Instead, you start recalling various situations from previous simtions.] [You want to know if there are any clues you missed without Absolute Rationality!] In reality, Jiang Yifeng''s lips curl into a smile as he mutters to himself. "Heh, there''s no way I missed anything!" In those simtions without Absolute Rationality, Jiang Yifeng believes that while he may not have been perfect, he had definitely organized every clue. He is quite confident about this. He even scoffs internally, "Absolute Rationality doesn''t mean absolute intelligence! It''s the same brain, you''re just not influenced by external factors. What more could you possibly do?" With this thought, Jiang Yifeng eagerly looks at the simtor. He now just wants to see his rational self get proven wrong. [You recall past experiences and the simtion disys.] [After recalling, you slowly close your eyes and fall into deep thought.] [After a long time, you slowly shake your head, realizing you missed just a tiny bit!] [You didn''t think about where your father''s Immortal Dao inheritance came from?] [You didn''t consider who the Lady in Red crossing the tribtion to be an immortal was?] [You didn''t think about why the Demonic Dragon had a way to cross the tribtion but didn''t be an immortal.] [You didn''t think about whether the other demonic beasts guarding the area had the same potential but faced their own issues, preventing or deterring them from crossing the tribtion.] [You didn''t consider what the powerful beings of the Immortal Realm extracted from the Demonic Dragon.] [Also, knowing that the founder of the Heavenly Profound Temple was a disciple of someone like Bai Moyu, you didn''t think about whether he really died?] [Would such a powerful disciple die under Heavenly Thunder?] [Does the Heavenly Profound Temple have deeper secrets?] [Bai Ruoxue lost her memory and came to the Southern Regions to find her senior brother. Is it really just out of longing and wanting to see him?] [¡­] [You sigh, realizing that without Absolute Rationality, even though you discovered many clues, you couldn''t grasp them.] Chapter 125: Warning from Absolute Rationality In reality, Jiang Yifeng''s face turned dark instantly upon seeing this. "Did I miss so many clues?" He murmured to himself, somewhat puzzled. After a long while, Jiang Yifeng stubbornly muttered. "Hmph, I thought of it, just didn''t say it out loud." Yes, that''s it. He''s a low-key person, unlike the version of himself with Absolute Rationality, who loves to show off. However, since he thought of it, he didn''t know why he still picked up pen and paper to record the issues disyed on the Simtor. After Jiang Yifeng finished jotting down all the problems shown on the Simtor, he smiled smugly, "Ha, now who dares to say I didn''t think of it!"But he seemed to have overlooked the ellipsis. Jiang Yifeng continued to look at the Simtor. [After pondering for a moment, you picked up pen and paper from the nearby table and started writing.] [Time passed bit by bit. When you stopped writing, you looked up at the sky and said, "**!"] [You stood there for a long time, then walked towards what you had just written.] [Then, you froze in ce.] [It seems there was a w in your n.] [The next day, you stayed in the Jiang Family Mansion and did not go out.] [You came to the paper you wrote on and muttered, "**!"] [After a long time, you looked at the unchanged paper and frowned.] [On the third day, after getting up, you came to the paper again and muttered, "**!"] In reality, Jiang Yifeng finally sensed something was wrong! The Simtor had shown "**" three times in a row. What was it that couldn''t be said? Or had the version of himself in the Simtor discovered something, and the Simtor was preventing him from knowing? Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng recalled that when his version with Absolute Rationality had told him to do a deep simtion, he had also looked up at the sky. Could it be that he needed to go in himself? No matter, it''s worth a try. Jiang Yifeng silently chanted, "Start deep simtion for one day!" He wasn''t sure if he needed to go in himself, so he decided to try a one-day deep simtion first. If it was important, he could extend the duration of the deep simtionter. However, this time, after Jiang Yifeng called out to start the deep simtion, he didn''t immediately enter the simtion.N?v(el)B\\jnn The Simtor seemed to be stuck. A full minuteter, the electronic voice of the Simtor slowly sounded. [Ding, starting deep simtion for one day, deducting 24 origin values, remaining origin values.] Instantly, Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness entered the simtion. At this moment, he also had the blessing of Absolute Rationality. He immediately understood that his decision to enter the deep simtion was correct. He walked towards the paper filled with words left from the previous text simtion. Looking at the notes on the paper, they were all the issues summarized earlier. Besides the text disyed on the Simtor, there were a few more lines at the bottom that hadn''t been shown before. "Why is my talent a fragment of the Heavenly Dao of the Nine Mystic Realm?" "Is the Simtor also plundering fragments of the Heavenly Dao of the Nine Mystic Realm? Or is it coborating with the Heavenly Dao of the Nine Mystic Realm?" "And the talents given in recent simtions are too good. Whether it''s drawn talents or one-time talents, they''re excessively good,pletely different from before." "This is very abnormal. I suspect the Simtor is in a hurry, pushing me to grow quickly." "Does it have self-awareness? Or is someone controlling it from behind?" "Will I be a puppet of the Simtor?" "Or am I also someone''s pawn?" "Of course, these are not important. The most important question is why the Simtor is in a hurry?" "What could make the Simtor anxious?" "Alert!! Alert!!" Seeing this, the current Jiang Yifeng, with Absolute Rationality, had no emotional fluctuations. He just memorized everything and then fell into deep thought. These previously unseen notes were all about the Simtor. In many aspects, Jiang Yifeng could now understand. However, he felt that some aspects might still be wrong. For example, does the Simtor have consciousness? Or is someone controlling it from behind? Will he be a puppet of the Simtor? Or is he someone''s pawn? These questions, Jiang Yifeng felt, needed further consideration. After all, he was currently in a deep simtion. If the Simtor had consciousness and wanted to turn him into a puppet, it could directly intervene and prevent him from entering the deep simtion. That way, he wouldn''t see the paper with potential issues about the Simtor. Therefore, Jiang Yifeng now felt that the Simtor might have consciousness, or someone might be controlling it from behind. But for now, it seemed harmless to him. Or the Simtor had a set of fixed rules. Its consciousness, or the person controlling it, couldn''t vite these rules. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but smile slightly. Since that was the case, at least he wasn''t at an absolute disadvantage. However, the reason for the Simtor''s urgency was something Jiang Yifeng felt needed careful consideration. After all, no matter how he looked at it, he and the Simtor were on the same side for now. Even if the Simtor had issues, that would be a problem forter! Thinking of this, he suddenly chuckled, "Then let''s have some fun!" After that, Jiang Yifeng didn''t exit immediately after getting the information as he had initially nned when entering the deep simtion. Instead, he silently chanted, "Simtor, extend deep simtion time to fifty years!" He felt that since he now had memory and Absolute Rationality, it was a great opportunity to investigate various matters. One day was too short. So, he wanted to try extending the deep simtion time. However, after a long while, the Simtor remained unresponsive. Jiang Yifeng frowned. He thought to himself, "Is it the Simtor''s rule? Can''t extend deep simtion time directly within the simtion?" "Or is the Simtor intervening? It doesn''t want me to solve problems through Absolute Rationality?" Without enough clues, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t figure it out at the moment. But he felt it was more likely to be the Simtor''s rule. After all, if it wanted to intervene, it would have been easier to do so before he entered the deep simtion. Since he couldn''t extend the deep simtion time, one day wasn''t enough to do much. So Jiang Yifeng silently chanted, "Exit deep simtion!" [Ding, deep simtion ended!] Jiang Yifeng instantly returned to reality. Recalling the events in the deep simtion, Jiang Yifeng felt a bit scared. He hadn''t expected the Simtor to have so many potential threats. He hadn''t thought in that direction before. And the Simtor seemed anxious? It wanted him to grow quickly? This was something Jiang Yifeng hadn''t noticed before. But thinking about it now, indeed, the recent talents were significantly stronger than before. Does this mean that the potential threat not only endangered him but might also threaten the Simtor? "What a headache!" Jiang Yifeng rubbed his forehead, forcing himself to calm down. He was torn about whether to continue the deep simtion. ording to Absolute Rationality, if he carried Absolute Rationality into the deep simtion, he could uncover more clues that he usually couldn''t notice. In the end, Jiang Yifeng shook his head. He didn''t continue the deep simtion. He felt he needed to digest the information first. Chapter 126: Ive been waiting for you! He continued to look at the simtion panel. [You were momentarily dazed, then nced at the paper filled with words in front of you. Two characters stood out: "Read!"] [You instantly understood that your real self had already entered the deep simtion.] [After that, you didn''t dwell on it any further.] [After all, your goal was merely to let your real self know about this.] [As for the specific decisions, you felt they should be made by your real self.] [You thought that whether there was an issue with the simtor or not was not the most important thing right now.] [After all, you were powerless to resist at the moment.] [In fact, the very fact that your real self could enter the deep simtion might be because the simtor was confident in its control.][And now, you felt the most important thing was to use the simtor to elerate your own improvement.] [Because the crisis in the Southern Regions and the danger posed by the powerful beings of the Immortal Realm were like a sword hanging over your head.] [As long as someone in the Southern Regions ascends to immortality, it would inevitably affect you.] [Even if you could stop your father from bing immortal.] [There was still the possibility that the Lady in Red could ascend!] [And right now, you didn''t even know who the Lady in Red was.] [Even if you managed to prevent everyone from bing immortal, could you be sure that the powerful beings of the Immortal Realm wouldn''t take action in the future?] [You thought it was impossible, so the urgent task was to eliminate the danger from the Immortal Realm.] [Thus, you began to n how to quickly improve yourself and understand the unknowns of the Immortal Realm and the Southern Regions!] [In the simtion, your awareness was high, and the simtor gave you a thumbs up. (You received affirmation from the simtor.)] In reality, Jiang Yifeng was speechless when he saw this. The simtor wasn''t even pretending anymore! It even showed the simtor giving a thumbs up on the screen. However, seeing this. Understanding his simted self''s thoughts. Jiang Yifeng instantly figured it out. Yes, the crisis from the Immortal Realm was imminent. And the danger from the simtor was further away, and it was just a guess whether there was any danger at all. If he couldn''t avoid the crisis brought by the powerful beings of the Immortal Realm, he wouldn''t have a future, so why fear the potential threat from the simtor? So, why fear the simtor? Moreover, Jiang Yifeng thought, if it weren''t for the simtor, he would have died at Yang Zuo''s hands. He had only a little over a decade left to live. But now, using the simtor, he could roam the Southern Regions unimpeded, fearing no one. As long as he yed it safe, even if he only lived until someone in the Southern Regions ascended and the powerful beings of the Immortal Realm destroyed the Southern Regions, he would stille out ahead. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng''s previously low spirits lifted. No matter what, this was a win! As for the future, let the future take care of itself! After figuring it out, Jiang Yifeng felt a sense of elevation. Sometimes, less intelligent people are happier. Because they don''t overthink things. [After much thought, you had several ns for leaving the Southern Regions or avoiding Heavenly Thunder while staying in the Southern Regions.] [However, you couldn''t determine which n was best, so you decided to wait and see.] [On the fourth day, you found your father, Jiang Fushan, and taught him the Devouring Spirit Art, exining everything about cultivation.] [Finally, you reminded your father not to undergo tribtion and be immortal.] [You did this not because you were worried about your father, but to leave a backup n for your future ns.] [After all, you knew clearly that your father, Jiang Fushan, would definitely listen to you, so you weren''t worried about him undergoing tribtion and attracting the powerful beings of the Immortal Realm.] [On the fifth day, you left Green Hills City and arrived at the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple in the Evergreen Mountain Range.] [This time, you weren''t waiting for Bai Ruoxue but wanted to investigate the ruins carefully.] [You remembered that Bai Ruoxue had casually created the Heavenly Profound Temple with a few gestures.] [At the time, you thought it was because of her profound cultivation.] [But her cultivation when she entered the Southern Regions was only at the Seventh Layer of Tribtion.] [Now that you were also at the Tribtion Crossing stage, you knew that at this stage, one could control mountains to create simple structures.] [But that would only be enough to build some walls, slopes, and modify the terrain.] [It was impossible to create a detailed structure with a wave of the hand.] [So now you were certain that the Heavenly Profound Temple wasn''t something Bai Ruoxue created out of thin air.] [Therefore, the Heavenly Profound Temple must have originally existed, buried underground, and was drawn out by Bai Ruoxue.] [You had seen several simtions of the Heavenly Profound Temple before but had never truly entered it.] [You didn''t know what was inside the temple!] [But this was something left behind by Bai Moyu, a powerful being, so you thought there might be some secrets hidden in this temple!] [So now, you wanted to find this temple.] [Half a year passed in the blink of an eye, and you had dug three feet deep into the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple.] [But you still hadn''t found any trace of the temple.] [This made you start to doubt yourself: "Could my spection be wrong? Was the Heavenly Profound Temple really built by Bai Ruoxue?"]n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om ["No, impossible!" You felt your spection was correct.] [Even if Bai Ruoxue was a master, her power was sealed like Bai Moyu''s, and her strength when she came to the Southern Regions was only at the Seventh Layer of Tribtion.] [This was confirmed through the Eye of Insight.] [Although you had doubts about the simtor, you thought that even if there was an issue with the simtor, it wouldn''t trip you up so early.] [Thinking of this, you couldn''t help but smile.] [If that were the case, you really wanted to see this Heavenly Profound Temple.] [You thought the deeper it was hidden, the more problematic it was!] [After all, with your current cultivation and as a ninth-grade Formation Master, you should be able to find some clues even if it were hidden with an Immortal Realm formation!] [But now you had found nothing.] [This indicated that the person who hid the Heavenly Profound Temple either used a formation beyond the Immortal Realm or some other unknown method.] [But this all proved that this person was really strong.] [You spected that this person was Bai Ruoxue''s senior brother.] [Such a strong person would not leave something behind without a reason, and you didn''t believe there wouldn''t be any issues.] [However, in the following days, you didn''t continue to search blindly.] [Instead, you settled down near the ruins, wandering around the area and asionally leaving the Evergreen Mountain Range, appearing particrly leisurely.] [Time flew by, and two years passed.] [While you were cultivating, you suddenly sensed someone approaching rapidly.] [You calcted the time and understood that Bai Ruoxue had arrived!] [Thinking of this, you smiled slightly and quietly waited for her arrival.] [Before long, Bai Ruoxue descended, spotting you from afar. She looked at you, her expression full of vignce.] [At this moment, you suddenly activated a formation talisman and chuckled, "I''ve been waiting for you!"] Chapter 127: Divine Sword Heavenly Mysterious As you waved the formation talisman in your hand, aplex ninth-grade trapping formation instantly rose up from dozens of kilometers away, entrapping both you and Bai Ruoxue within it. This formation was set up in a rather cunning manner, not directly on the ruins. Instead, it covered nearly a hundred kilometers around. Therefore, even though Bai Ruoxue had sensed the presence of a formation talisman nearby earlier, she didn''t expect it to be used to trap her. After all, who sets up a trapping formation over such a vast area? Such arge range would obviously reduce the effectiveness of the formation. Of course, Bai Ruoxue was not panicked at this moment. Even though it was aplex ninth-grade trapping formation, its actual effect had already been greatly diminished. She was fully confident that she could break it in a short time. In fact, Bai Ruoxue was also quite puzzled. How did someone in the Southern Regions know about her, and even set up a formation waiting for her?However, she knew now was not the time to think about these things. So, Bai Ruoxue stared at you, sneering coldly, "Do you think this formation can trap me?" Hearing Bai Ruoxue''s words, you smiled lightly and shook your head slightly, "It can''t!" You knew very well that Bai Ruoxue was the daughter of Bai Moyu, who had set up the sealing formation in the Southern Regions. How could his daughter''s formation skills be low? Although you knew that most of Bai Ruoxue''s cultivation and memories were sealed within the Bronze Gate in the Eastern Regions. But you still remembered that in a previous simtion, when you had the Cmity Body talent, Bai Ruoxue had used a formation to trap you outside the Valley of mes. This proved that Bai Ruoxue''s formation memories were not sealed. So, when you set up this formation, you knew it couldn''t trap Bai Ruoxue. Hearing your words, Bai Ruoxue frowned, feeling a bad premonition. Knowing it couldn''t trap her, yet still setting it up, clearly you had other intentions. At this moment, you didn''t waste any more time and directly flew up, attacking Bai Ruoxue. What you needed to do was simple: capture Bai Ruoxue and find something on her that could lead you to the Heavenly Profound Temple.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om As for why you didn''t attack directly and set up a trapping formation instead, the fundamental reason was that the body technique manual you cultivated, "Wind Chasing Art," wasn''t a high-level technique, and you feared you couldn''t catch up with Bai Ruoxue. As long as the trapping formation was set up, you believed that even if Bai Ruoxue''s formation skills were higher than yours, she couldn''t instantly break the formation you had set up over two years. You just needed her not to escape instantly, and that was enough. The battle didn''tst long. Soon, Bai Ruoxue was defeated by you, lying on the ground, barely alive. Although Bai Ruoxue''sbat power was extremely strong, your Martial Dao cultivation alone wasparable to the Eighth Layer of Tribtion, not to mention you also had Immortal Dao cultivation, which could be interchanged. So, this was a battle without suspense. After controlling Bai Ruoxue, you chose the most direct method: interrogation! When Bai Ruoxue heard you wanted to find the Heavenly Profound Temple, she raised an eyebrow. She felt she had taken this beating for nothing. That''s right, Bai Ruoxue thought so, she didn''t think the Heavenly Profound Temple had any secrets that couldn''t be revealed. So, without much effort, Bai Ruoxue agreed to summon the Heavenly Profound Temple. This smoothness made you feel that all your previous preparations were in vain. However, it wasn''t your fault, after all, you didn''t know how much of Bai Ruoxue''s memory was sealed. You saw Bai Ruoxue holding a jade token, then waved her hand towards the ruins, and a Taoist temple slowly rose from the ruins. You stared intently at the temple, trying to see how it appeared. You only sensed a slight tremor in the void, without any formation fluctuations or spiritual energy surges. This left youpletely puzzled! Since that was the case, you grabbed Bai Ruoxue, pinched her neck, and pointed at the Heavenly Profound Temple, asking sternly, "Why is there no formation fluctuation?" That''s right, you chose the most violent method again. Bai Ruoxue rolled her eyes at you. But she still exined honestly, "The Heavenly Profound Temple is hidden in a Sumeru Space, so of course, there''s no formation fluctuation." Sumeru Space was a term unfamiliar to you, so you continued to press for answers. Bai Ruoxue seemed to have resigned herself to her fate and spoke without reservation. After hearing her exnation, you roughly understood that Sumeru Space meant a space hidden within a tiny object. And to find a Sumeru Space, one mustprehend thews of space. This made you understand why you had never been able to find the Heavenly Profound Temple before. Perhaps the temple was hidden within a speck of dirt, how could you find it? And Bai Ruoxue could summon the Heavenly Profound Temple because she had the jade token, which acted like a key. Hearing this, your curiosity grew even stronger. It seemed that Bai Ruoxue''s senior brother was stronger than you had imagined. But it made sense, after all, you had already received information that her senior brother was a figure even before Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya. So, Bai Ruoxue''s im that he might have been struck dead by Heavenly Thunder was likely misinformation. After all, Bai Ruoxue''s memories were sealed by Bai Moyu, so many things she said couldn''t be taken at face value. While you were lost in thought, the Heavenly Profound Temple finally fully emerged. You hesitated for a moment, then took Bai Ruoxue and walked into the temple. Upon entering the Heavenly Profound Temple, you didn''t see any statues or other items typically found in a Taoist temple. The entire temple contained only a single sword. The sword seemed to have a few lines of small characters engraved on it. You softly read the words on the sword hilt, "With my body, I forge the Heavenly Profound, the enemy shall not retreat, and I shall not return!" As soon as you finished speaking, you heard a sword hum. You looked at the sword in surprise, silently praising it in your heart, "What a good sword!" At that moment, you saw Bai Ruoxue kneeling beside the sword, gently caressing it. She murmured softly, "Heavenly Profound, long time no see!" Hearing Bai Ruoxue''s words, the sword shook a few times, as if greeting her! Seeing this, you couldn''t help but admire the sword''s spirit. You began calcting how to acquire this sword. After all, you had never had a suitable weapon, although your Silent Destruction Fist was quite good. But you knew that the War God Art included a martial sword technique called "Sword of Killing Intent." And the conditions for cultivating it, besides understanding killing intent, required a good sword. You felt this sword was perfect! At that moment, Bai Ruoxue seemed to know what you were thinking and suddenly looked at you. She said, "Don''t even think about taking ''Heavenly Profound,'' it has its own consciousness and won''t easily recognize a master." "Even... immortals can''t force ''Heavenly Profound,'' or they will end up with the sword destroyed and themselves dead!" After saying this, Bai Ruoxue''s face suddenly changed, and she curled up on the ground, starting to roll in pain. Chapter 128: Guo Qing, Great Principal Golden Immortal [As soon as you saw Bai Ruoxue''s appearance, you instantly recalled the scene from a previous simtion where Bai Ruoxue suddenly lost her memory.] [Could it be the same this time?] [But why?] [You clearly remember that in multiple simtions before, Bai Ruoxue had also entered the Heavenly Profound Temple.] [But each time she came out, she didn''t show any signs of amnesia.] [You think it might be a coincidence. After all, thest time Bai Ruoxue showed symptoms of amnesia was because you mentioned something about her sealed memories during that simtion.] [Forcing her to recall led to her amnesia; but this time, you only asked about the Heavenly Profound Temple.] [Since Bai Ruoxue came here, it indicates that her memory in this regard is notpletely sealed. So, you don''t think it''s because of your questioning.] [As for the issue with the Heavenly Profound Sword, you didn''t ask about it; Bai Ruoxue mentioned it herself, so that shouldn''t be a problem either.][Just as you were puzzled, you saw a wisp of white light appear on the Heavenly Profound Sword, enveloping Bai Ruoxue.] [Gradually, Bai Ruoxue calmed down and fell into a deep sleep.] [Then, a phantom figure floated out from the Heavenly Profound Sword, gently stroked Bai Ruoxue''s hair, and sighed softly, "Sleep, everything will be fine when you wake up!"] [Seeing this, the first thing that came to your mind was a Sword Spirit.] [In the novels you read in your previous life, many had such settings.] [However, with your Absolute Rationality, you didn''t immediately take this as the urate answer.] [After all, with your limited knowledge of the Immortal Dao, you don''t know if Sword Spirits exist in this world.] [So, you immediately used the Eye of Insight on it.] [Whether you could see the information of this phantom figure, you were unsure.] [Previously, when you felt that the Heavenly Profound Sword seemed to have intelligence, you used the Eye of Insight to check it.]n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [At that time, you thought that if the sword had intelligence, the Eye of Insight might be able to see its information, but it turned out it couldn''t.] [And now this phantom figure floated out from the Heavenly Profound Sword.] [You used the Eye of Insight to probe him, just to try your luck.] [After all, no matter how you look at it, he is one with the Heavenly Profound Sword. Since you couldn''t see the sword''s information, could you see his?] [Soon, you got the answer: Yes!] [The Eye of Insight indeed saw the information of this phantom figure.] [At this moment, you didn''t have time to ponder the logic of the Eye of Insight.] [Because the information about this phantom figure had already caused a huge wave in your heart.] [The information seen by the Eye of Insight was as follows: Guo Qing: Sword Spirit of the Heavenly Profound Sword (Unrecognized), Great Principal Golden Immortal Level (Fragmented), former master of the Heavenly Profound Temple, Bai Ruoxue''s senior brother.] [Note: After recognizing a master, the Sword Spirit''s level will change ording to the master''s level.] [Through this information, you have confirmed that Sword Spirits do exist in this world.] [But that''s no longer the point.] [You keep thinking, what exactly is going on?] [Didn''t Bai Ruoxue say that the Heavenly Profound Sword was her senior brother''s sword?] [Why did her senior brother be the Sword Spirit of the Heavenly Profound Sword?] [Moreover, her senior brother is so powerful. As a Sword Spirit, he is a Great Principal Golden Immortal (Fragmented). If he were alive, wouldn''t he be at the Great Principal Golden Immortal level?] [You think this is highly likely.] [At this moment, you suddenly recall how smoothly Bai Ruoxue brought you into the Heavenly Profound Temple!] [Does she really not know that her senior brother is the Sword Spirit?] [Although no other secrets were found in the Heavenly Profound Temple, if you forcibly tried to take the Heavenly Profound Sword after she brought you in, would she really not care?] [Even if it can''t recognize a master, taking the Heavenly Profound Sword away wouldn''t be good for Bai Ruoxue!] [So, does Bai Ruoxue know that the Sword Spirit of the Heavenly Profound Sword is her senior brother? Did she bring you here to resist you?] [After all, you had controlled Bai Ruoxue before, and she was just a prisoner.] [If she knew that the Sword Spirit of the Heavenly Profound Sword in the Heavenly Profound Temple was her senior brother, bringing you here to save herself seems reasonable!] [But if that''s the case, what did Bai Ruoxue mean by telling you not to target the Heavenly Profound Sword just now? It seems a bit redundant.] [You feel there must be some information you don''t know.] [But no matter what, you think you were careless this time.] [You keep reflecting, thinking you were too confident in the information you had obtained before, a bit arrogant.] [After all, all the information obtained from previous simtions proved that in the Southern Regions, besides the Mystic Turtle and Shen Wutian in the ancientnd, the strongest were only at the Tribtion Crossing stage.] [Who would have thought that there would be such a heaven-defying Sword Spirit here!] [Just as you were deep in thought, the phantom figure Guo Qing had already gently ced Bai Ruoxue aside.] [After finishing everything, he turned to look at you, a hint of killing intent in his eyes, as if he could strike at any moment.] [Seeing that the situation was not right, knowing you were not his match, you quickly spoke, "Senior, is there some misunderstanding between us!"] [Sword Spirit Guo Qing snorted coldly, "Hmph, Xue''er used the secretnguage to wake me up, and you still want to argue."] [After saying that, Guo Qing instantly merged with the Heavenly Profound Sword, and a majestic aura surged out.] [In an instant, the sky changed color!] [At this moment, you already understood why Bai Ruoxue''s seemingly redundant reminder was necessary.] [It must have been a method to wake Guo Qing.] [Otherwise, Guo Qing wouldn''t have said that Bai Ruoxue used the secretnguage to wake him up.] [However, now is not the time to think about this. You didn''t continue to ponder.] [Looking at the aura of the Heavenly Profound Sword and the cultivation level of Guo Qing you saw earlier, you knew you couldn''t win this fight!] [So, you silently chanted, "Activate Mortal Realm!"] [You directly used the talent you obtained this time, which is also your strongest trump card at the moment.] [But you were not confident, you could only gamble.] [After all, the introduction of the Mortal Realm said it was useless against the Great Principal Golden Immortal level.] [And Guo Qing''s information was Great Principal Golden Immortal level (Fragmented), you were unsure if it would work on him.] ["Ding!" As soon as you activated the Mortal Realm, the Heavenly Profound Sword instantly fell to the ground, losing its previous soaring aura, as if it had turned into an ordinary piece of iron.] [Sword Spirit Guo Qing also floated out from the Heavenly Profound Sword, and you could no longer sense any cultivation from him.] [Seeing this, you breathed a sigh of relief.] [Fortunately, the Great Principal Golden Immortal (Fragmented) was also within the control range of the Mortal Realm.] [At this moment, you yourself also instantly turned into a mortal. Martial Dao, Immortal Dao, even Divine Dao, all could not be used.] [Even the enhanced physical strength had turned into that of a mortal body.] [Seeing this situation, you sighed inwardly, why didn''t this talent have any obvious ws?] [That''s right, you previously thought this talent couldn''t turn all cultivation systems into mortals.] Chapter 129: The just and dignified you, deceiving the limping Guo Qing [After all, every talent the simtor has given you before had some ws.] [You used to think that if you couldn''t eliminate all cultivation systems, you could still rely on other systems to fight.] [But now, that idea has been shattered.] [In the past, you would never have imagined that one day you would hope the talents given by the simtor had ws.] [However, no matter what, you are safe now.] [Although you have turned into a mortal, the Heavenly Profound Sword has also be mere ordinary iron, which is to your advantage.] [As for the Sword Spirit Guo Qing?] [Well, he is bing more and more ethereal, as if he is dissipating.] [Seeing this, you ponder for a moment ande up with some ideas.][You think that since this is the Mortal Realm, something like a Sword Spirit shouldn''t exist!] [So, the Sword Spirit would be expelled from the sword, and once expelled, it''s just a soul entity. How can that be considered a mortal?] [If you don''t retract the Mortal Realm, you can already foresee Guo Qing''s fate.] [At this moment, the Sword Spirit Guo Qing seems to understand his situation as well.] [Instead of panicking, he bursts intoughter: "I never thought I''d see the owner of the forbidden path ''Extinguish Law'' with my own eyes."]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [Upon hearing Guo Qing''s words, you instantly understand that this must be the name cultivators use for the Mortal Realm talent!] [Indeed, the term "Extinguish Law" is quite fitting for the Mortal Realm.] [Afterughing for a while, Guo Qing''s expression turns cold, and he speaks again: "But do you think this means you''ve won against me?"] [As soon as he finishes speaking, you see Guo Qing forming various hand seals continuously!] [As he continues to form seals, mes begin to rise from his ethereal spirit body.] [He is using the technique of burning his soul.] [Although you haven''t learned simr techniques, you can sense danger from Guo Qing.] [But why can he still use techniques within the Mortal Realm?] [In an instant, you think of two possibilities.] [One is that Guo Qing was originally at the Great Principal Golden Immortal level. Although he is now weakened and can be restricted by the Mortal Realm, if he goes all out, he might still have a way to break free.] [The second possibility is that the Mortal Realm has a w, and that w is that it doesn''t restrict soul techniques?] [You now pray that it''s the first possibility.] [Otherwise, the effectiveness of the Mortal Realm will be greatly diminished.] [After all, you haven''t learned any soul techniques yourself.] [If the talent''s w is that it doesn''t restrict soul techniques.] [Then in future battles, when you use the Mortal Realm, you''ll have to see if your opponent has learned soul techniques. If they have, you''re done for.] [It will only make you die faster.] [As you are lost in thought, Guo Qing has already finished forming the seals. He looks at you and says, either we perish together, or you let Little Xue go!] [Hearing this, you are speechless: "Come on, buddy, can''t you ask me if I''ll let her go before using the soul-burning technique as a threat?"] [Despite yourints, you feel a bit relieved after hearing Guo Qing''s words.] [After all, you had already thought of a set of arguments, but you were afraid Guo Qing would act before you could speak.] [Now that there''s room for negotiation, it ys right into your hands.] [You are pleased in your heart, but your face remains expressionless.] [You speak disdainfully to Guo Qing: "A bunch of cowards who cling to life, threatening a cultivator of the Nine Mystic Realm like me. Why don''t you go fight the viins of the Immortal Realm!"] [Just now, you recalled all the information chains.] [You believe Guo Qing should be a righteous person with the Nine Mystic Realm in his heart.] [His master Bai Moyu took Bai Ruoxue and others to hide, but he stayed in the Southern Regions.] [Plus, various pieces of information before have proven that Guo Qing is someone who opposes the Immortal Realm.] [And, you just saw the words on the Heavenly Profound Sword.] [Previously, you didn''t understand their meaning.] [But thinking back now, you have a bold idea.] [That is, Guo Qing chose to be the Sword Spirit of the Heavenly Profound Sword himself.] [As for the reason, you specte that Guo Qing might know some hidden truths, such as the Nine Mystic Realm being weaker in terms of weapons and treasurespared to the Immortal Realm, so he willingly transformed into a sword.] [Of course, this is just a guess. It could also be that Guo Qing was severely injured and then transformed into a Sword Spirit to continue fighting the Immortal Realm.] [But no matter what, this is your breakthrough point.] [That''s right, you not only want to protect yourself, but you also have your eyes on the Heavenly Profound Sword.] [After hearing your words, Guo Qing''s eyes burn with even more anger. He never expected that after fighting the Immortal Realm to the death, even bing a Sword Spirit to continue killing enemies after death, someone would call him a coward.] [But you pretend not to see it and continue: "What? Are you angry out of shame?"] [You point at Bai Ruoxue and say to Guo Qing: "She and her sect are hiding in the south of the Southern Regions, enjoying peace and abandoning the Nine Mystic Realm and countlesspatriots. I found it displeasing, so I beat her up. So what?"] ["I didn''t kill anyone, which is already merciful!"] [After speaking about Bai Ruoxue, you look at Guo Qing again: "And you, as a Sword Spirit with great power, hiding in this godforsaken ce, not daring to join the battle, and you have the face to talk about perishing together with me?"] ["If that''s the case, thene on!"] ["I, Jiang Yifeng, fear nothing!"] [Your continuous words are righteous and awe-inspiring!] [For a moment, Guo Qing is stunned.] [He reflects, thinking he might have been wrong.] [He understands the situation of his junior sister Bai Ruoxue, who was indeed forcibly taken to hide by their master Bai Moyu.] [Although it wasn''t his junior sister''s intention, outsiders wouldn''t know that.] [So, if his junior sister got beaten because of this, it seems they can only me their master Bai Moyu, not you for being angry.] [And what about himself?] [After bing a Sword Spirit, he has been thinking about choosing a qualified master.] [He believes only a master who is extremely excellent in all aspects can wield him and fight against the Immortal Realm.] [But thinking about it now, it seems he was wrong, putting the cart before the horse!] [If he had chosen a master earlier, maybe they wouldn''t have reached the Immortal Realm, but they could have killed countless enemies and reduced some pressure on the Nine Mystic Realm!] [Guo Qing is bluffed by your words and keeps reflecting on himself.] [After a long time, the mes on Guo Qing''s soul gradually extinguish. He looks at you with some shame and sighs softly: "Sorry!"] [Afterwards, Guo Qing hesitates for a long time and tells you he wants the Heavenly Profound Sword to recognize you as its master.] [After all, you are the owner of "Extinguish Law," such people are rare; even though he is a disciple of the great Bai Moyu, he has only heard of such people, never seen one.] [Moreover, he had already noticed your cultivation and age; someone of your age with such cultivation proves that your talent is exceptionally good, and he thinks you are barely qualified to be his master.] [Plus, your words just now also enlightened him. The Nine Mystic Realm has been weak for a long time, and waiting without recognizing a master is not a solution!] [In short, Guo Qing has beenpletely fooled by you.] [Of course, maybe it''s because he has been a Sword Spirit for too many years without interacting with people, making him a bit naive now!] Chapter 130: A leisurely game of chess [You felt a surge of joy when Guo Qing brought up the matter himself.] [Originally, you just wanted to present yourself as someone who detests evil and stands for justice in front of Guo Qing, and then slowly make your move on the Heavenly Profound Sword.] [You didn''t expect Guo Qing to be so easily swayed.] [When Guo Qing proposed the idea of the divine sword recognizing its master, you naturally didn''t refuse.] [Soon, youpleted the process of bonding with the Heavenly Profound Sword.] [That''s right, the bond was with the Heavenly Profound Sword, not with Guo Qing.] [Because the Sword Spirit is, in essence, a part of the divine sword.] [Due to Guo Qing''s unique nature, he had more freedom and could control the Heavenly Profound Sword itself.] [After the bonding waspleted, Guo Qing disappeared.][No, to be precise, he fell into a deep sleep.] [ording to Guo Qing before he fell asleep, he is now just a wisp of a Sword Spirit, and his strength grows with the wielder''s power.] [He mentioned that his former cultivation was like a castle in the air, even if borrowed, it could only be sustained temporarily.] [This time, after being awakened by Bai Ruoxue and burning part of his soul in the recent fight with you, he was already quite weak.] [In the future, if he wants to awaken, it will depend on you.] [As long as your cultivation continues to improve, he, as your life-bound Sword Spirit, will continuously recover, and there will be a time when you meet again.] [You had many questions for Guo Qing, but before you could ask, he had already fallen into a deep sleep.] [This left you somewhat disappointed.] [When you confirmed that Sword Spirit Guo Qing hadpletely fallen asleep, you suddenly realized that his desire to bond with you might have been a way to save himself.] [However, you didn''t dwell on it and simply smiled.] [No matter what, the Heavenly Profound Sword was now yours, which also enhanced your strength.] [You had just tested it out.] [Even with Sword Spirit Guo Qing asleep, the sword''s power was still extraordinary.] [Even though you hadn''t learned any sword techniques, just swinging the sword wildly produced powerparable to your full-force Silent Destruction Fist.] [This was the first time you experienced the importance of a powerful weapon.] [With the Heavenly Profound Sword in hand, you searched the Heavenly Profound Temple but found nothing else of interest.] [Then, you nced at the still-sleeping Bai Ruoxue.] [After a moment of thought, you sat down nearby and quietly waited.] [Half a dayter, Bai Ruoxue woke up.] [Upon waking, she stared at you warily.] [She couldn''t understand why you were still unharmed.] [Why was the Heavenly Profound Sword missing?] [At this moment, Bai Ruoxue felt a bit panicked, even wondering if she might die here.] [You were unaware of Bai Ruoxue''s confusion.] [But even if you knew, you wouldn''t tell her that the Heavenly Profound Sword was now being nurtured in your Qi Sea.] [At this moment, you just looked at Bai Ruoxue with a faint smile.] [You had already noticed that Bai Ruoxue hadn''t lost her memory.] [You thought that perhaps her previous head pain and rolling on the ground were either a coincidence or that the white light from Guo Qing''s appearance had some special effect, preventing her from losing her memory.] [But these things were no longer important to you.] [Whether she had lost her memory or not, you didn''t n to extract any information from her.] [After all, you knew that Bai Ruoxue''s memory was problematic, and asking her might not yield truthful answers and could even mislead you.] [The reason you waited for her to wake up was for one thing.] [That was to obtain the jade token from her that could open the Sumeru Space and summon the Heavenly Profound Temple, along with the specific method of using it.] [After you made this request, Bai Ruoxue thought you were somewhat out of your mind.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [The Heavenly Profound Temple had already been summoned, so the jade token and its usage method were useless. What would you do with it?] [However, she didn''t tell you this and obediently handed over the jade token and the usage method.] [The method was simple; she said you just needed to inject spiritual energy into the jade token.] [After obtaining what you wanted, you ignored Bai Ruoxue and flew away.] [You had considered killing Bai Ruoxue after getting what you needed.] [After all, you now had a grudge against her.] [But in the end, you abandoned this option.] [First, you had promised Guo Qing not to harm Bai Ruoxue.] [Of course, this wasn''t the main reason for your decision.] [The real reason was that you thought if she sought revenge, you might gain something different.] [In the future, the dynamics of the Southern Regions might be interesting.] [After all, Bai Ruoxue was not your match now.] [If she wanted revenge, she would have to return to the Eastern Regions to unlock her memory and strength.] [At that time, if she came to the Southern Regions with her true strength, wouldn''t she attract the attention of the powerful beings in the Immortal Realm?] [You were sure she would be noticed.] [Although your Eye of Insight couldn''t see through Bai Ruoxue''s strength, you believed her unsealed power wouldn''t be low.] [Of course, you knew that the reason you couldn''t see through her true strength might be because Bai Moyu had sealed her cultivation.] [Your talent wasn''t a match for a powerful being.] [But in any case, Bai Ruoxue''s senior brother Guo Qing was at the Great Principal Golden Immortal level, and her father Bai Moyu was a powerful being. How could she be weak?] [Such a strong person entering the Southern Regions wouldn''t go unnoticed by the powerful beings in the Immortal Realm, right?] [And once Bai Ruoxue was targeted by other powerful beings, would Bai Moyu ignore his daughter?] [At that time, would Bai Moyu be drawn into the chaos of the Southern Regions?] [You smiled, looking forward to Bai Ruoxue''s revenge.] [After all, you knew this was just a simtion.] [As long as you could gather more information and uncover more possibilities, you could make the real world safer; even if you failed in the simtion, you wouldn''t lose anything.] [Moreover, you didn''t n to stay in the Southern Regions for long this time.] [By then, if Bai Ruoxue really came for revenge, it would only drag Bai Moyu into the chaos, while you might have already left the Southern Regions.] [Of course, this was just your thought. You didn''t really care about Bai Ruoxue''s choice.] [If she didn''te for revenge, it didn''t matter to you; you wouldn''t force it!] [After all, she was just a pawn you casually ced.] [After that, you left the Evergreen Mountain Range and headed straight to Spine Mountain.] [Your appearance made Old Li and the others very wary.] [But you subdued him with two moves, and after a good talk, they understood your intention.] [You told them you wanted to take them out of the Southern Regions.] [Initially, Old Li didn''t believe you.] [But he couldn''t resist when you secretly destroyed the protective formation left by Senior Lu Wuya.] [You triggered the formation prematurely!] [The people of Spine Mountain had no choice but to agree to venture out of the Southern Regions with you.] Chapter 131: Deceiving Cultivators of Spine Mountain, an Adventurous Plan A few dayster, you led thousands of cultivators from Spine Mountain back to Green Hills City. Along the way, you encountered numerous Immortal ves, but under your personal intervention, none were left alive. Upon returning to Green Hills City, you stayed for two days. Afterward, you took your father, Jiang Fushan, and Little Peach, intending to leave the Southern Regions together. Not only that, but you also brought along arge number of mortals from the Jiang Family. Jiang Fushan was puzzled, but he never opposed anything you said. Two dayster, everyone in the Jiang Family had packed their belongings and set off with you. Of course, you couldn''t let these mortals travel on their own; it would be too slow. So, the strong cultivators from Spine Mountain had to bear the burden.Each of them protected some mortals, and you all flew eastward. In the blink of an eye, more than half a month had passed. You arrived outside the Valley of mes. In truth, if you were traveling alone, it wouldn''t have taken this long. But this time, you had arge group, most of whom were mortals. Even if they were being carried, traveling too fast would make them nauseous. At this moment, everyone looked at you. Even the cultivators from Spine Mountain were no exception. They couldn''t withstand the fierce Phoenix mes and wanted to see how you would lead everyone out of the Southern Regions. Especially with so many mortals. You understood their thoughts clearly. However, since you dared toe, you naturally had a n. You didn''t act immediately but instead scanned everyone with your eyes. Watching your actions, the others were puzzled. But no one noticed that you had skipped over your father, Jiang Fushan, and Little Peach. After looking at everyone, you turned your gaze to the Valley of mes. Then, you silently chanted, "Activate Mortal Domain!" Instantly, the cultivators from Spine Mountain panicked. They felt their cultivation disappear. Only your father, Jiang Fushan, and your personal maid, Little Peach, were exceptions. In fact, you had just scanned everyone to pull them into the Mortal Domain. You had already tested it before; the Mortal Domain wasn''t limited by range. It locked onto people based on who you saw. You weren''t sure if there was a limit to the number of people, because your previous test was only at a branch of the Immortal Arrival Sect on the way to Spine Mountain. That branch had about seven to eight thousand cultivators. This was why you dared to control so many Spine Mountain cultivators at once. Of course, you didn''t intend to harm them; you just wanted to give them a warning. As for the reason? Naturally, you wanted to use them! The Mortal Domain''s function wasn''t just to pull people into the domain. Anyone who attacked you would also instantly be a mortal once you activated it. This was something you had tested with Little Peach and your father, Jiang Fushan, during your two-day stay in Green Hills City. The cultivators from Spine Mountain weren''t fools; they quickly realized something was wrong. They saw that, besides the mortals present, only your father, Jiang Fushan, and Little Peach still had their cultivation. How did they figure it out? Simple, because the two of them were disying their spiritual energy. This was why you deliberately avoided pulling them into the Mortal Domain. You knew your father was absolutely trustworthy, and you believed you could trust Little Peach about eighty percent. But that wasn''t important; your father, Jiang Fushan, now had a higher cultivation. For a moment, everyone looked at you. They knew it had to be your doing. After all, when they still had their cultivation, they saw that your father, Jiang Fushan, was only at Perfect Foundation Establishment, and Little Peach was even weaker, just at the Foundation Establishment stage. They couldn''t have aplished such an astonishing feat. Facing the gazes of everyone from Spine Mountain, you chuckled and pointed to the Valley of mes, saying, "Look!" At this moment, they noticed that the Phoenix mes in the Valley of mes were gradually extinguishing. In less than a minute, the Valley of mes was left with only scorched earth, devoid of any mes. In the center of the valley, a colorful Phoenix was hopping around, seemingly trying to fly. Unfortunately, it had lost all its cultivation and was now no better than an ordinary bird, unable to fly. Seeing this, the cultivators from Spine Mountain had mixed feelings. They thought you had used some spell to borrow everyone''s cultivation to extinguish the Valley of mes. This way, they could indeed leave the Southern Regions. But they didn''t want to be mortals. If they were willing to be mortals, they could have stayed in the Southern Regions and still survived! Soon, they would realize how naive their thoughts were. At this moment, you smiled at the cultivators from Spine Mountain. Then you had Little Peach take out arge basin of ck pills from her storage ring.N?v(el)B\\jnn You told the cultivators from Spine Mountain that as long as they took these pills, their cultivation would be restored! Upon hearing this, most of them were overjoyed, but a few frowned, feeling you had ulterior motives. You didn''t keep them guessing and directly told them that taking the pills would restore their cultivation, but you would also control their life and death. Whether to take them or not was up to them. For a moment, the cultivators from Spine Mountain looked at you with eyes full of resentment. You ignored them. Soon after, many hot-blooded individuals chose not to restore their cultivation and refused to take the pills, intending to leave on their own. You waved your hand, and Little Peach killed them on the spot. After a long while, the ground outside the Valley of mes was covered in blood. However, most of the cultivators from Spine Mountain still took the pills you had prepared. Once everything was over, you lifted the Mortal Domain from these people. Instantly, they regained their strength. But those who had taken the pills dared not resent you. After all, they believed their lives were now in your hands. But the truth? What you gave them were just some ck mud pills. Although you had the talent of a Pill Dao Saint Hand, you hadn''t had time to practice alchemy, let alone create pills that could control life and death. What you did was merely to make them believe they had taken poison pills, making it easier tomand them in the future. Why didn''t you force them to take the fake pills while they still had their cultivation? Simple, fake pills are easy to expose. But now, using the power of the Mortal Domain and then the pills, they couldn''t discern the pill''s ingredients without their cultivation. Even if they regained their cultivation and couldn''t sense any poison, they would just think your pills were too advanced for them to detect. After all, you knew how shocking it was to make someone''s cultivation disappear in an instant. Why did you do this? Let''s just say your n this time was risky and grand; it required a lot of manpower! What if you got exposed? You didn''t care; after all, the people from Spine Mountain weren''t your match. It would just make your n a bit more troublesome, but it was something you could handle. After all, the mortals from the Jiang Family were your backup n. Chapter 132: Self-study Alchemy [After subduing the cultivators of Spine Mountain, you did not retract the Mortal Domain.] [Instead, you had them take action and y the Phoenix that could only hop in ce.] [The Demonic Phoenix''s flesh and blood were all stored in your storage ring.] [After everything was done, you were taken by someone and flew towards the depths of the Valley of mes.] [That''s right, you still did not retract the Mortal Domain, as you couldn''t fly by yourself.] [As for the reason? For safety!] [After all, you weren''t sure if there were other dangers in the Valley of mes.] [Although in a previous simtion, you had once left the Southern Regions from here, you were not actually familiar with the Valley of mes.] [That time, due to the Cmity Physique, everything changed, and it couldn''t be taken as a standard.][So, for safety, you decided to keep the Mortal Domain active.] [This way, even if there were dangers, anyone who attacked you would be a mortal.] [As long as you kept the Mortal Domain active, unless a Great Principal Golden Immortal made a move, you would remain undefeated.] [Now, with the raging mes gone and the Demonic Phoenix no longer blocking your way,] [It took only a few days for you to find a crack in the formation.] [Without hesitation, everyone passed through the crack and left the Southern Regions.] [Soon, you all arrived outside the Southern Regions.] [But among these people, your father, Jiang Fushan, was missing.] [You had some guesses about this and were not too surprised.] [It only made you more curious about the secrets your father was hiding.] [But now, you knew it wasn''t the time to dwell on these matters.] [However, due to the disappearance of your father, Jiang Fushan, the mortals from the Jiang Family you brought along were somewhat panicked, as if they had lost their backbone.] [But, under your kind lies, you quickly calmed everyone down.] [At this moment, Old Li and a few people from Spine Mountain suddenly attacked you.] [However, as soon as they made their move, their cultivation instantly turned into that of mortals.] [Seeing this, you merely smiled slightly and said to Little Peach, "Kill them!"] [Soon, Old Li and the others were killed on the spot.] [You could guess the reason for their attack.] [After all, you had been in a mortal state from the beginning.] [They had also taken the pills you gave them, thinking their lives were in your hands.] [So killing you was definitely the best choice.] [Others might not dare, but who was Old Li?] [He had guarded the local cultivators in the Southern Regions for so many years, surely he had some guts.] [He could endure before because he hadn''t left the Southern Regions.] [He couldn''t be sure if killing you would make the Valley of mes return to its original state.] [But now, having confirmed that they had left the Southern Regions, with no other threats,] [In their eyes, you, the one controlling their lives and deaths, naturally became the first target to kill.] [But, as the saying goes, "The Dao is one foot tall, the devil is ten feet tall."] [They didn''t expect your Mortal Domain to have passive abilities.] [They also didn''t know that you kept the Mortal Domain active partly to fish forwbreakers.] [After all, you needed people who were absolutely obedient.] [After Old Li and the others died, you thought for a moment and deactivated the Mortal Domain, regaining your cultivation.] [Although the Mortal Domain could make you safer, it also limited your development.] [After all, you still needed to cultivate and improve.] [After that, you found a base in the Great Wilderness and settled down.] [By this time, it had been four years since you entered the simtion!] [In that year, you ordered everyone to focus on cultivation and forbade them from going out.] [The mortals from the Jiang Family were also taught some basicbat techniques by Little Peach.] [In the fifth year, you recalled your knowledge from your previous life and attempted to make guns.] [But you failed, not because you couldn''t make them, but because some rules seemed to be blocking you.] [However, there was good news; you sessfully made crude explosives.] [But the space and soil here seemed more solid, making the explosives'' power too weak.] [The explosive packs you made could only injure enemies if they hit them directly and exploded on their bodies; otherwise, the st''s impact was too weak to harm them.] [Still, it was a potential path.] [You ordered Little Peach to lead the mortals in mass-producing explosive packs using the form you devised.] [In the sixth year, you found a pile of alchemy books and pill recipes from the cultivators of Spine Mountain.] [That''s right, you decided to start learning Pill Dao.] [After all, you felt that relying on the pills to scare the cultivators of Spine Mountain wasn''t a long-term solution.] [You needed to develop real pills to control people.] [With arge number of Pill Dao manuals in hand, you fell into deep thought.] [You wondered if you should call your outside self toe in for deep simtion.] [In the end, you shook your head.] [You felt that although deep simtion was good, it consumed a lot of origin values.] [Currently, you didn''t have many origin values left, and unless it was urgent, it wasn''t necessary!] In reality, Jiang Yifeng nodded in satisfaction after reading this. Indeed, he didn''t want to do deep simtion right now. Firstly, deep simtion was too mentally exhausting. Secondly, the simtor was about to upgrade, so he needed to save more origin values. Even if it meant wasting some simtion attempts. After all, only half a year had passed in reality. He wasn''t in a hurry; even the appearance of the Immortal Dao inheritance was still over a decade away. He had plenty of simtion opportunities. [In the seventh year, after a year of self-study, you miraculously reached the level of a second-grade alchemist.] [This made you realize the power of the Pill Dao Saint Hand.] [In the eighth year, while refining pills, you triggered your talent for random enlightenment, increasing your cultivation speed tenfold and making your thoughts more active.] [This enlightenmentsted only half a month.] [But it elevated you from a second-grade alchemist to a third-grade alchemist.] [At this point, you could already refine poison pills to control Foundation Establishment cultivators.] [But that wasn''t enough, so you continued to cultivate Pill Dao.] [By the tenth year, you had be a fifth-grade alchemist.] [That year, you came out of seclusion with arge number of pills.] [You made all the cultivators below the Spirit Transformation Realm in Spine Mountain take these pills.] [That''s right, these were real poison pills, and after taking them, these cultivators'' lives were truly in your hands.] [This was the highest level of poison pills you could refine at the moment.] [In fact, you could have continued your seclusion.] [But over the years, the cultivators of Spine Mountain hadn''t had a single poison outbreak, and many had noticed something was wrong.] [Some even secretly fled.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [So, you had toe out of seclusion early.] [First, you needed to truly control these low-level cultivators.] [As for the high-level ones?] [If they ran, they ran!] [After all, you needed numbers.] [And these low-level cultivators were clearly the majority!] Chapter 133: Little Peach has broken through to the Core Formation stage [Year Eleven, you sent those who had truly ingested the poisoned pills to scout for information, to see if there were any cultivation sects nearby.] [As for yourself, you once again entered seclusion.] [Year Twelve, Little Peach broke through to the Core Formation stage and came to report to you.] [At first, you didn''t pay much attention, only praising her a bit.] [But when Little Peach mentioned she had achieved a Ten-Grade Golden Core, your heart finally stirred.] [You hadn''t expected her cultivation talent to be so strong.] [Among the people you knew, only your father, Jiang Fushan, who was full of secrets, cultivated faster than her!] [However, you quickly thought of a problem. Little Peach had always been cultivating at your base.] [If she had achieved the Core Formation stage with a Ten-Grade Golden Core, why hadn''t there been any celestial phenomena?][You clearly remembered that in previous simtions, whether it was you or your father Jiang Fushan, breaking through with a Ten-Grade Golden Core caused quite amotion.] [Could it be that those phenomena only appear in the Southern Regions?] [You were somewhat puzzled!] [You asked Little Peach if she had felt anything unusual during her breakthrough.] [After some thought, Little Peach told you that she had originally intended to break through to the Core Formation stage with a Nine-Grade Golden Core!] [However, during her breakthrough, she seemed to have had a dream.] [In her dream, the heavens changed color, and all sorts of strange phenomena appeared!] [When she woke up from the dream, she had already achieved a Ten-Grade Golden Core and sessfully formed her core.] [After listening to Little Peach''s description, you muttered to yourself, "Phenomena in a dream?"] [At that moment, it seemed you had thought of something!] [The corners of your mouth lifted slightly, and you said faintly, "Interesting, this is getting more and more interesting!"] [Could this really be a coincidence?] [Your muttering left Little Peach somewhat confused, but you didn''t exin it to her!] [Afterward, you gave her some pills for cultivation and waved her away.] [After she left, you pondered for a moment but didn''t think further.] [You felt that whether it was a coincidence or not, it was clearly not something that could be investigated in this simtion.] [So, you continued to lower your head and cultivate.] [However, the trace of cunning in your lowered gaze hinted at some unknown intention!] In reality, Jiang Yifeng was eagerly awaiting when he saw the word "interesting." He hoped that his absolutely rational self coulde up with some reasoning. But this was it? You stopped thinking? You went back to cultivating? Jiang Yifeng pped the table and cursed. "Dammit, I hate riddlers the most!" After taking a few deep breaths, he gradually calmed down. He began to ponder what his absolutely rational self in the simtion had thought of! Jiang Yifeng couldn''t believe it. Everyone has the same brain, who is better than whom? Could he really not figure it out? Jiang Yifeng rubbed his chin and began to recall the text disyed in the simtion. He felt that the key phrase was: "Could this really be a coincidence?" The meaning was clear; his simted self didn''t think it was a coincidence. But what was it referring to? Jiang Yifeng furrowed his brows and kept thinking. As time passed, his brows gradually rxed. He thought of some possibilities. His father, Jiang Fushan, was a prodigy, achieving a Ten-Grade Golden Core in just a few years during a previous simtion. His maid, Little Peach, was also a peerless genius, achieving a Ten-Grade Golden Core in over a decade. Such level of genius should be rare, perhaps once in a million years! Why did two appear at once, and both were close to him? This was too coincidental. Was this the coincidence his simted self was referring to? Jiang Yifeng wasn''t sure. However, upon recalling the past, Jiang Yifeng indeed thought of a second possible coincidence. That was, Little Peach achieving a Ten-Grade Golden Core proved she had the potential to be an immortal. And her speed shouldn''t be slow. Moreover, during her core formation, there were no celestial phenomena, only phenomena in her dream. Could she be the Lady in Red who crossed the tribtion to be an immortal in a previous simtion? Jiang Yifeng thought this because he hadn''t seen any celestial phenomena in the Southern Regions during that time. Previously, he thought it was some old monster crossing the tribtion to be an immortal. So, not seeing the Lady in Red''s core formation phenomena was normal. But now that he thought about it, it didn''t make sense! Because if there had been core formation phenomena, how did the Lady in Red escape the pursuit of the Immortal Arrival Sect? Moreover, based on multiple previous simtions, once phenomena appeared, not only would the Immortal Arrival Sect pursue, but Old Li from Spine Mountain and others would alsoe to the rescue. So, the Lady in Red should have be a member of Spine Mountain. But, if the Lady in Red who crossed the tribtion to be an immortal was Little Peach?n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om She had phenomena in her dream, then everything made sense. In an instant, Jiang Yifeng felt he understood everything. He couldn''t help but stare at the simtor, revealing a faint smile. Muttering a few words to himself. "Heh, riddler?" "Think I can''t figure it out?" "Who do you think you''re underestimating?" After saying this, Jiang Yifeng felt refreshed! So he continued to look at the simtor. [Year Thirteen, some of the cultivators from Spine Mountain you sent out returned.] [They brought back news that manypanions had died outside, and some had betrayed and joined a sect called "Qingyang Sect."] [Upon hearing this, you looked at these people with a half-smile.] [You knew in your heart that these people must have considered joining that sect as well.] [But clearly, they were rejected.] [That sect didn''t think much of them!] [As for those who betrayed, you had already known before they returned.] [After all, you sensed that the poisoned pills you nted had been neutralized.] [You didn''t have a good solution for this, as your alchemy skills weren''t high.] [However, it didn''t matter, as you mainly needed these cultivators to help explore the map.] [You didn''t believe that all the people you controlled could find high-level alchemists to neutralize the poisoned pills.] [For instance, those who were rejected still brought back the information you needed.] [After inquiring, you learned that this sect was said to be a third-rate sect, with the strongest being the sect master at the Eighth Layer of Tribtion.] [You nodded upon hearing this, having an idea in mind.] [Since this sect''s strongest person in the eyes of outsiders was at the Eighth Layer of Tribtion.] [Then their true foundation must be more than that!] [But it didn''t matter, as their strongest on the surface was only at the Eighth Layer of Tribtion.] [Even if their foundation was strong, you didn''t think it would reach the Great Principal Golden Immortal level.] [A monthter, you led the cultivators from Spine Mountain and the mortals who followed from the Jiang Family Mansion, heading towards the Qingyang Sect.] [Besides holding crossbows, each of those mortals carried several backpacks, the contents of which were unknown.] Chapter 134: Is this still Absolute Rationality? What a brute! In the blink of an eye, several days had passed, and you had led your group to a spot not far from the Qingyang Sect. You didn''t rush into action. Instead, you began setting up formations to conceal and protect everyone you brought along. After everything was in ce, you headed towards the Qingyang Sect alone tounch an attack. Soon, the Qingyang Sect organized their forces and began to retaliate against you. They didn''t use their full strength, so if you went all out, you could handle them on your own. But you chose to fight and retreat! Before long, you were chased by the Qingyang Sect members to the location where you had set up the formation earlier. Seeing that the time was right, you scanned the pursuing Qingyang Sect members and activated the Mortal Domain.Then, you shouted, "Attack!" Led by Little Peach, your group burst out from the formation and began capturing the Qingyang Sect members! That''s right, your goal wasn''t to kill but to capture! Otherwise, there would be no need for such a bigmotion. After a long while, you killed the Qingyang Sect alchemists and those above the Nascent Soul stage who couldn''t be controlled by poison pills. The remaining people were all fed poison pills by you! But that wasn''t the end! After all, not all the Qingyang Sect members hade out to chase you. So, you repeated the same trick. After three rounds, the number of people you controlled with poison pills increased significantly. Thebined number of Qingyang Sect members and those from Spine Mountain exceeded tens of thousands. At this point, the Qingyang Sect seemed to realize something was wrong. No matter how you provoked them, they ignored you and didn''t chase after you anymore. In the end, you led your group in a direct assault! In reality, Jiang Yifeng looked at the situation and felt something was off. What was going on? Was this something Absolute Rationality would do? A reckless brute? Instead of cultivating quietly, you go and attack another sect? Jiang Yifeng was baffled. He could only hold his patience and continue reading! The battle began! Even though you activated the Mortal Domain, your side still suffered significant casualties. After all, once you activated the Mortal Domain, your field of vision would shorten. It was hard to pull unseen enemies into the Mortal Domain. Although the passive ability of this talent could turn enemies into mortals, If they didn''t attack you and only targeted the low-level cultivators or mortals you brought, there was nothing you could do. This was also why you didn''t choose a direct assault initially. Because you were worried that high-level cultivators on the other side might evade your first wave of detection and couldn''t be pulled into the Mortal Domain. Sure enough, what you feared happened. However, fortunately, you were at the forefront, and most of those who evaded your detection chose to attack you. They instantly turned into mortals. Only one old fox attacked the others you brought along. It was this person who killed thousands of your people in one strike. But it was just one strike; after he attacked, you pulled him into the Mortal Domain as well. As for the cultivation levels of thest few Qingyang Sect members who appeared? You just used the Eye of Insight to check, and they were only at the peak of the ninth level of Tribtion Crossing! Even without the Mortal Domain, you felt you could take them on in a one-on-one fight. You were puzzled. Could this really be the Qingyang Sect''s full strength? Wasn''t it a bit low? You had to know, this wasn''t the Southern Regions. In the Great Wilderness, although it wasn''t the main battlefield against the Immortal Realm, There were still battle zones. In such a ce, you always thought the foundation of a sect wouldn''t be too low. At least it should be something like the Immortal Realm.N?v(el)B\\jnn But the reality was just like this! After these few people appeared, there were no more surprises. Soon, most of the Qingyang Sect members were captured by your people. The few who resisted stubbornly were killed on the spot. In the end, you looked at the high-ranking members of the Qingyang Sect who had surrendered; you didn''t kill them immediately. Instead, you chose to interrogate them. After the interrogation, you finally understood why the Qingyang Sect''s foundation was only at the peak of Tribtion Crossing. Because everyone above the Immortal Realm had been conscripted to the battlefield against the Immortal Realm. ording to them, it wasn''t just the Qingyang Sect; all other sects were the same. As for where the battlefield was? These people didn''t know. They only said that every hundred years, someone from the Great Wilderness Battlefield woulde to inspect and take away everyone above the Immortal Realm! Hearing this, you nodded slightly, thinking it made sense. You recalled the situation you saw with the Eye of the Heavens; at that time, you were too far away to determine the exact location of the Great Wilderness battlefield. However, you could confirm that in the Great Wilderness, there were indeed very few ces where battles urred. You thought that ce should be the battlefield they mentioned. After obtaining this information, you felt it would be difficult to contact people from the Immortal Realm. That''s right, you had nned to contact people from the Immortal Realm before. This was also why you chose toe to the Great Wilderness. After all, the battles here were the fewest, so the important forces should be the least. In this way, the cultivation levels of the Immortal Realm people participating in the battles here would definitely be lower than in other ces. With your Mortal Domain talent, the chances of self-preservation would be greater. You thought you could try to contact people from the Immortal Realm. And attacking these local sects could serve as your token of allegiance! If you could take the opportunity to join the Immortal Realm''s camp, it would be safer, and you might even get more unknown information. However, it seemed infeasible now. The battlefield was in an isted location, and you couldn''t contact people from the Immortal Realm at all! And the tokens of allegiance you prepared wouldn''t be known by the people from the Immortal Realm. However, you didn''t mind! After all, attacking the Qingyang Sect and controlling some people had other purposes besides serving as tokens of allegiance. After obtaining the information, you didn''t spare the high-ranking members. All the Qingyang Sect members, except those who could be controlled by poison pills, were killed by you! The entire Qingyang Sect could only be described as a river of blood! After finishing everything, you set up a ninth-grade trapping formation. You trapped all the Qingyang Sect captives and the cultivators from Spine Mountain in the formation. You instructed Little Peach to make sure these people didn''t starve! After all, these people were controlled by poison pills, and you didn''t trust them. As for why you did this, it was because you had opened the Qingyang Sect''s treasury, and the treasures inside were enough for you to cultivate for a while. The uing period was your development phase. You didn''t need these people for the time being. As for the mortals? You could say that homemade explosives were useful but limited in effect, often causing friendly fire inrge-scale battles. And without using homemade explosives, mortals had too littlebat experience. Even if they encountered cultivators who were also turned into mortals, they could hardly resist and had already suffered heavy losses in previous battles. The few remaining ones were handed over to Little Peach to manage. You asked Little Peach to try teaching these people cultivation. After all, these people were the most loyal to you. Chapter 135: Breakthrough to immortality? [Year 14, you begin a secluded cultivation within the Qingyang Sect.] [This time, you no longer focus on Pill Dao.] [Instead, you fullymit to enhancing your Immortal Dao cultivation level.] [Year 16, your Immortal Dao cultivation reaches the Second Layer of Tribtion.] [It only took you two years to advance a minor realm.] [This is a sensation you haven''t experienced in a long time.] [You must know, this isn''t even the period when your Late Bloomer talent is triggered.] [The fact that you can cultivate so quickly is naturally thanks to the Qingyang Sect.] [Although Qingyang Sect is just a third-rate sect, its treasure trove has plenty of resources for you.][With the entire treasure trove at your disposal, it''s hard not to advance quickly!] [Of course, you must also thank your Taotie Divine Body!] [Without it, you wouldn''t be able to digest the resources so swiftly.] [Year 18, your Immortal Dao cultivation reaches the Third Layer of Tribtion!] [Year 20, the Fourth Layer of Tribtion.] [Year 23, the Fifth Layer of Tribtion.] [Year 26, the Sixth Layer of Tribtion.] [Year 29, your Immortal Dao cultivation breaks through to the Seventh Layer of Tribtion.] [At this point, the resources in Qingyang Sect''s treasure trove that can quickly enhance your cultivation are nearly depleted.] [Only the most basic Spirit Stones remain!] [Year 30, you choose to exit seclusion.] [Upon exiting, you discover that Little Peach''s cultivation has already reached the first level of Body Integration Realm.] [This is the seventh realm before bing an immortal, and you can''t count how many simtions it took you to reach Body Integration Realm.] [Yet Little Peach has achieved it in such a short time.] [With no cultivation resources and such rapid progress, it''s truly enviable!] [Of course, you merely sigh in admiration.] [After all, you know clearly that this is just within the simtion.] [No matter how fast she progresses, in reality, she can''t possibly catch up to your realm!] [And in the simtion, the stronger Little Peach bes, the more she helps you.] [Year 31, you once again lead the captives on an expedition.] [Although the captives are somewhat unwilling, their lives are in your hands, so they have no choice but to obey.] [This time, your target is a sect called Xingyue Sect.] [How did you learn about this sect?] [Because you found a map of the Great Wilderness''s power distribution in Qingyang Sect''s library.] [This is also why you previously confined all the captives, preventing them from scouting.] [Using the same method you used to deal with Qingyang Sect, you easily take down Xingyue Sect.] [In fact, you don''t need the captives; with your current strength, you could rob Xingyue Sect on your own.] [But you think it''s safer to use the Mortal Domain to bring the enemies down to the mortal realm, then have the captives you control suppress them with their cultivation.] [This is why you''ve been controlling these people.] [After taking down Xingyue Sect, you immediately open its treasure trove.] [Confirming the abundance of cultivation resources, you once again confine all the captives.] [You then enter seclusion for cultivation.] [But this time, before going into seclusion, you take out some resources for Little Peach.] [You instruct her to cultivate with all her might but toe to you before breaking through to immortality.] [Little Peach doesn''t understand why you give such instructions but nods in agreement.] [After all, in her eyes, everything she has is given by you, the Young Master.] [Whatever you say goes!] [Year 32, you focus on cultivation!] [Year 34, your Immortal Dao cultivation breaks through to the Eighth Layer of Tribtion.] [Year 39, you reach the Ninth Layer of Tribtion.] [Year 43, your Immortal Dao cultivation reaches the peak of Tribtion Crossing.] [But you can''t break through to the Immortal Realm because your Martial Dao is still stuck at the Eighth Layer of Semi-Saint.] [You then start focusing entirely on Martial Dao cultivation.] [You haven''t used the Martial Dao treasures you had before.] [With the Taotie Divine Body, you believe it won''t take long for your Martial Dao to catch up.] [In the blink of an eye, several years pass.] [Year 60, your Martial Dao finally reaches the peak of Semi-Saint, just one step away from breaking through to War Saint!] [Both your Immortal Dao and Martial Dao are on the verge of breaking through.] [At this point, you only need to summon the tribtion for bing an immortal to cross it and be an immortal.] [But you seem to have some concerns and haven''t chosen to break through yet.] [Instead, you start cultivating the War God Body and Sword of Killing Intent from the War God Art.] [You continuously strengthen yourbat power!] [Year 70, Little Peaches to find you.] [She tells you she has reached the peak of Tribtion Crossing and is ready to cross the tribtion to be an immortal.] [This is what you instructed her before, to inform you before crossing the tribtion, and Little Peach has always remembered.] [You are overjoyed upon hearing this.] [You''ve been waiting for this day for a long time.] [You tell Little Peach to go ahead and cross the tribtion to be an immortal.] [Little Peach doesn''t ask why and agrees immediately.] [In the blink of an eye, a day passes, and Little Peach sessfully crosses the tribtion, reaching the Mortal Immortal realm.] [After she sessfully crosses the tribtion, she doesn''t encounter any danger.] [This puts your mind at ease.] [You think perhaps you were overthinking it.] [Bing an immortal outside the Southern Regions should be safe.] [That''s right, the reason you haven''t crossed the tribtion to be an immortal is that you''re worried about danger.] [Although you know there are immortals outside the Southern Regions.] [But who knows if those powerful beings in the Immortal Realm are targeting the Southern Regions or the people of the Southern Regions.] [If they are preventing people from the Southern Regions from bing immortals.] [Then you think, even if you leave the Southern Regions, it would still be dangerous.] [After all, you don''t know the capabilities of those powerful beings.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [Can they lock onto every person from the Southern Regions?] [This is why you haven''t crossed the tribtion to be an immortal.] [Also, knowing Little Peach''s talent, you gave her a lot of resources to let her cultivate with all her might.] [You were waiting for Little Peach to cross the tribtion to the Immortal Realm.] [You treated Little Peach as your pathfinder.] [Now that she has crossed the tribtion without incident, you think you can also choose to cross the tribtion.] [So, you start releasing your cultivation to summon the tribtion.] [As you continuously release your cultivation.] [The Primordial Energy of your Martial Dao and the spiritual energy of your Immortal Dao within you seem to know you are about to break through the bottleneck.] [They start intertwining with each other.] [You see the Primordial Energy of your Martial Dao and the spiritual energy of your Immortal Dao bizarrely begin to merge.] [You confirm that you are not mistaken; they are merging, not transforming.] [They gradually merge into a new kind of energy.] [Gradually, strands of golden chaos energy are born within you.] [And at this moment, you suddenly feel a chill down your spine.] [As if something terrifying is looming.] Chapter 136: Great Wilderness Battlefield comes people Chapter 136: Great Wilderness Battlefieldes people As time slowly passed, the tribtion clouds in the sky gathered more densely, ready to descend at any moment. But the unease in your heart grew more intense. You felt that if you continued, you would truly die! What to do? Should you stop? Or should you take a gamble? Your thoughts churned endlessly. Finally, you whispered, "Mortal Domain!" In an instant, you transformed into a mortal. The tribtion clouds in the sky seemed to lose their target and gradually dispersed.The spiritual energy and primordial energy within you separated once more, each running its own course. It was as if nothing had happened. When everything settled, the feeling of unease in your heart gradually subsided. Indeed, the feeling just now was caused by a breakthrough. Was it due to the Divine Dao? Or some other reason? You quickly abandoned this line of thought. You felt it didn''t matter because, whatever it was, you would have to face it sooner orter. You had just given up on the breakthrough, not out of fear, but because you felt it wasn''t the right time to gamble. After all, this simtion was still short; you could still make many attempts and improvements. Sensing danger now, you thought it unwise to gamble recklessly. After making your decision, you quickly took action. In the seventy-first year, you resumed your study of the Pill Dao. Why choose to improve in the Pill Dao? Because alchemy required arge number of herbs, and you had just looted the treasuries of two sects. Although most were used to enhance your strength, there were still plenty of ordinary herbs left. This was called making the best use of everything.N?v(el)B\\jnn Moreover, after self-studying the Pill Dao, you clearly understood its benefits in cultivation. Whether using poison pills to control people or using pills to enhance strength, the role of pills was undeniable. In the seventy-third year, you focused entirely on alchemy, and your rank as an alchemist rose to sixth-grade. In the seventy-sixth year, your rank rose to seventh-grade. In the seventy-ninth year, you became an eighth-grade alchemist. In just a few years, you advanced three grades, a remarkable speed. But in that year, you discovered a serious problem: you were running out of primary alchemy materials. To advance to a ninth-grade alchemist, you needed higher-grade herbs. The high-grade herbs in the treasuries of Qingyun Sect and Xingyue Sect had been consumed to enhance your cultivation. Now, there were no materials left for you to practice alchemy. So, that year, you repeated your old trick and looted another sect. In the eightieth year, you went into seclusion again to practice alchemy. That year, you also turned 100, triggering your Late Bloomer talent, doubling your cultivation efficiency. In the eighty-second year, your alchemy reached ninth-grade. But you still had enough materials, so you didn''t stop and continued practicing. In the eighty-fifth year, your alchemy reached the peak of ninth-grade. You could now produce semi-finished Immortal Pills. One more step, and you would be an immortal-grade alchemist. But thisst step was a difficult hurdle. In the nieth year, you turned 110, triggering your Late Bloomer talent to double your cultivation speed again. But your alchemy was still stuck at the peak of ninth-grade. You didn''t give up; you persisted because you knew you had the Heaven Rewards Diligence talent. As long as you persevered, this wouldn''t be an insurmountable barrier. In the hundredth year, you turned 120, triggering your Late Bloomer talent to triple your cultivation speed. In the 108th year, you looked at the alchemy furnace before you, feeling a sense of anticipation. An Immortal Pill was about to be born! Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, a day had gone by. In your alchemy room, the furnace buzzed, and a pill took shape. At the moment the pill formed, a seven-colored auspicious cloud appeared in the sky, as if celebrating the birth of the Immortal Pill. But before the auspicious cloud could descend, a blood cloud fell from the sky, heading straight for the alchemy room. You watched all this without flinching. You focused solely on controlling the furnace fire, waiting for the Immortal Pill to emerge. A few minutester, the furnace exploded, and a blood-red pill flew out. The blood-red Immortal Pill did not attract any pill lightning. However, the pill had a spirit and was restless, trying to escape. But you were prepared, quickly grabbing it with your sharp eyes and fast hands, without any mishap. Looking at the blood-red Immortal Pill, you couldn''t help but smile. You felt the timing was just right. If it had been anyter, you might have missed your next n. After refining the blood-red Immortal Pill, You killed all the previous captives and destroyed their bodies. Then, you left with Little Peach. From then on, except for Little Peach, no one would know that you were the one who killed those sect members. Of course, you also knew that if a great cultivator skilled in divination were involved, they might deduce it. But this was unavoidable. Moreover, you thought these were third-rate sects, unlikely to have anyone who could afford to hire such a great cultivator for divination. After all, divining the past and future muste at a high cost. In the 109th year, you and Little Peach left the previous sects far behind and secluded yourselves in a small mountain. In the 110th year, an old man suddenly appeared at your secluded ce, holding an array disk. Using the Eye of Insight, you probed and obtained information about the old man. Xiao Siyuan: Supreme Unity Golden Immortal, logistics coordinator of the Great Wilderness Battlefield in the Nine Mystic Realm. Seeing this information, you knew that the person you had been waiting for had finally arrived. How did you know he would find you? It wasn''t hard to guess. Since those captives had said that all Immortal Realm individuals were taken to the battlefield, You didn''t believe that every Immortal Realm person had the awareness to fight for the Nine Mystic Realm. That everyone would be waiting for the battlefield personnel. So, you were sure that the battlefield personnel had means to find Immortal Realm individuals. And you thought that not only did they have means to find them, but at critical moments, they would directly take action to capture uncooperative Immortal Realm individuals for the battlefield. While you were lost in thought, Xiao Siyuan didn''t look at you but at Little Peach. He told Little Peach that whether she was from a sect or a rogue cultivator, since she had reached the Immortal Realm, she should go with him to the Great Wilderness Battlefield! Obviously, he didn''t know Little Peach''s background. Nor did he care to ask; he only needed to take those above the Immortal Realm to the Great Wilderness Battlefield. Little Peach didn''t agree immediately but looked at you. Although her cultivation had surpassed yours, Little Peach still habitually regarded you as her leader. Chapter 137: Peak of Tribulation Crossing: Battle of Mortal Immortal Chapter 137: Peak of Tribtion Crossing: Battle of Mortal Immortal [It wasn''t until this moment that Xiao Siyuan seemed to notice your presence and turned to look at you!] [You didn''t mind his previous disregard.] [Instead, you told Xiao Siyuan that you also wanted to go to the Great Wilderness Battlefield.] [He looked at you for a moment, and after sensing that your cultivation had reached the peak of the ninth level of Tribtion Crossing, he didn''t directly refuse.] [Instead, he looked at Little Peach again and asked her if she wanted to bring you along.] [Once again, you experienced the feeling of being ignored.] [You wanted to go to the Great Wilderness Battlefield, and naturally, Little Peach wanted to take you along.] [Upon hearing this, Xiao Siyuan said nothing more.] [He just reminded you that once you were on the battlefield, even if you were at the peak of Tribtion Crossing, you couldn''t hide in the back. If you died, he wouldn''t be responsible.][These words made Little Peach a bit worried and she wanted you to stay behind.] [However, under your insistence, she could onlyply, silently vowing to protect you.] [After some preparations, you and Little Peach were smoothly taken away by Xiao Siyuan.] [But you didn''t go directly to the Great Wilderness Battlefield.] [In the following days, Xiao Siyuan visited many ces again.] [Every time he arrived at a ce, your team would gain one or two morepanions.] [These were all people who had broken through to the Mortal Immortal realm in the past hundred years.] [However, after using the Eye of Insight, you knew that each of these people was quite old, with the youngest being at least two thousand years old.] [And this person was always supported by the others, said to be the strongest Chosen in the Great Wilderness in nearly ten thousand years.] [This gave you a rough estimate of what it meant to be a Chosen.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [If youpared yourself to this person, you were already a genius among geniuses.] [As for people like your father or Little Peach, they could no longer be considered Chosen; they could only be described as monstrous talents.] [Three months passed in the blink of an eye.] [Your team had grown to over thirty people.] [Xiao Siyuan nced at the Immortal Seeking Formation Disk in his hand, shook his head, and sighed, "Ah, fewer and fewer each time!"] [After that, Xiao Siyuan put away the Immortal Seeking Formation Disk and stopped searching in the Great Wilderness, leading you all on the return journey.] [A few dayster, after multiple teleportations, you arrived outside an ancient, dpidated pce.] [The pce was covered in bloodstains, clearly having been through the baptism of war.] [The others began to discuss the pce fervently.] [Meanwhile, you silently took out a map and made another mark.] [Yes, during this period, you had recorded the location of each teleportation.] [These teleportation arrays were very hidden, and if you didn''t know about them in advance, they would be really hard to find.] [Xiao Siyuan noticed everything you did but didn''t stop you.] [He thought you were nning to escape from the battlefield.] [He believed you were daydreaming; once on the battlefield, it was either victory or death, with no other possibility!] [Of course, people like him who handled logistics didn''t count.] [After a brief stay, you teleported again from this pce.] [This teleportation seemed to take longer than the previous ones.] [After a long while, when you reappeared, you could already smell the pungent scent of blood.] [Looking around, you saw a blood-stainednd, even the zing sun in the sky had a red hue.] [Not far away, you could see rows of military camps.] [As you were still observing your surroundings, you suddenly heard the sound of a loud horn.] [Immediately, soldiers flew out from the camps.] [They quickly formed ranks and sped off into the distance.] [After using the Eye of Insight, you discovered that these soldiers were all at the Mortal Immortal realm.] [There were even quite a few at higher realms among them.] [Seeing this, you felt a bit emotional.] [The Mortal Immortal realm, which would be considered an ancestor-level existence anywhere else, was just a regr soldier on this battlefield.] [So this is what a war between realms is like?] [At this moment, you finally understood why Xiao Siyuan had said that once you came to the Great Wilderness Battlefield, your life and death would be your own responsibility.] [In his eyes, what could someone at the peak of Tribtion Crossing do here other than get themselves killed?] [Time passed.] [You had already been on the Great Wilderness Battlefield for half a month.] [During this period, you hadn''t been on any missions.] [Yes, missions!] [During this time, you had learned the rules of the Great Wilderness Battlefield.] [When the army''s horn sounded, whichever camp it sounded from, that camp had to go to battle!] [Other than that, there were no other strict rules on the Great Wilderness Battlefield.] [After all, everyone here was a cultivator, not a mortal army.] [When not forced to go to battle, everyone did their own thing.] [Some people would take on small tasks, like attacking a certain stronghold of the Immortal Realm.] [After all, the camp had military merits.] [The more military merits you had, the more opportunities you had to exchange for rare resources to improve yourself and live longer.] [Some people, who were more cautious, would hide and cultivate when not forced to go to battle. Even without resources, they would still cultivate!] [Although this method was slow, it was safer!] [Overall, everyone''s goal here was the same: to survive.] [As for you?] [After understanding the rules here.] [You tried taking on small tasks.] [After all, small tasks were safer and could give you a taste of the battlefield.] [Unfortunately, as someone at the peak of Tribtion Crossing, no other team was willing to take you.] [Yes, small tasks couldn''t bepleted by a single person.] [In the end, with no other choice, you and Little Peach took on a five-person task.] [It wasn''t allowed initially, but Little Peach had recently broken through to the Earth Immortal realm.] [This allowed you to sessfully take on the task.] [After getting the task map, the two of you set off.] [Three dayster, you arrived at the destination, and you directly activated the Mortal Domain, allowing Little Peach to kill four Mortal Immortal realm enemies.] [You didn''t kill thest Mortal Immortal.] [Instead, you had Little Peach stand by and supervise.] [Then, you deactivated the Mortal Domain.] [You wanted to challenge a Mortal Immortal at the peak of Tribtion Crossing.] [Yes, this was one of your purposes foring to the battlefield.] [To improve yourbat skills.] [You didn''t know what crisis you would face when you crossed the tribtion to be an immortal.] [But this crisis would definitely be far above the Mortal Immortal realm.] [Although it was just a premonition, as a cultivator, you naturally knew it wasn''t just a wild guess but a sense of impending danger!] [So, you had great ambitions; you wanted to fight immortals as a mortal, to y Mortal Immortals, and even higher realms.] [Otherwise, you wouldn''t dare to easily attempt the tribtion to be an immortal.] [Of course, you were also very cautious and not arrogant, so you only left one enemy to practice with and had Little Peach on guard.] [The Mortal Immortal realm opponent from the Immortal Realm, seeing his cultivation restored, immediately tried to escape.] [But Little Peach pped him back.] [And warned him that if he tried to run again, he would die.] [But if he could defeat you, he could live!] [Hearing this, the Mortal Immortal realm enemy seemed to see a glimmer of hope.] ["Fight!" he shouted, charging at you.] Chapter 138: Immortal Clans Restraint Weapon [In the blink of an eye, a day had passed.] [Your battle with that Mortal Immortal was still ongoing.] [Initially, he saw that you were only at the peak of the Tribtion Crossing stage and thought he could easily defeat you and seize the chance to live from Little Peach.] [Unfortunately for him, you were not as easy to deal with as he had imagined.] [Although you hadn''t learned many spells and yourbat techniques were rtively few,] [Your calm demeanor always allowed you to make the best choices at critical moments.] [You utilized the Law of Wind to keep moving, then used the Law of Thunder, the True Meaning of the Killing Dao, and the Silent Destruction Fist to counterattack in the gaps.] [Even when he used wide-range attacks that you couldn''tpletely dodge, you always managed to avoid fatal spots and relied on your robust Martial Dao physical body to withstand the blows.] [This made the Mortal Immortal from the Immortal n extremely frustrated.][He felt like you were a monster!] [After all, the Mortal Immortal realm represents a qualitative leap over the typical Tribtion Crossing stage.] [This is mainly reflected in three aspects.] [First, spiritual energy transforms into immortal energy, making attacks more powerful!] [Second, the body undergoes the baptism of the tribtion for bing an immortal,pensating for the physical weaknesses of cultivators.] [Third, theprehension ofws.] [Upon reaching the Mortal Immortal realm, one inevitablyprehends aw; afterward, the sensitivity to thews of heaven and earth bes stronger and easier to enhance!] [But you, even without reaching the Mortal Immortal realm, possessed some of these qualities.] [Attack power? The True Meaning of the Killing Dao, the Law of Thunder, the Silent Destruction Fist, and the Heavenly Profound Sword you haven''t even used yet¡ªall these enhance your attack power.] [Physical strength? You cultivate both the Divine Dao and Martial Dao; for ordinary cultivators of the same realm, hitting you is like scratching an itch.] [Comprehension ofws? With the Taotie Divine Body, you had longprehended the Law of Thunder and the Law of Wind; the True Meaning of the Killing Dao also counts as aw.] [Yourprehension ofws even surpassed that of some weaker Mortal Immortals.] [So, although it seemed like you were fighting a stronger opponent, your overall strength was not inferior to his, and might even be a bit stronger.] [Of course, you weren''t fully aware of this.] [Even though Little Peach had reached the Earth Immortal realm, she couldn''t fully exin it.] [After all, both of you were self-taught cultivators without a master to guide you.] [Everything had to be figured out on your own.] [In this battle, besides wanting to improve yourbat experience, you also aimed to understand the techniques of the Mortal Immortal realm.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [You wanted to urately gauge your ownbat strength and the strength of the Mortal Immortal realm.] [Now, you had the answers you sought.] [Thus, you no longer held back and softly called out, "Heavenly Profound," as the Heavenly Profound Sword appeared in your hand.] [This divine sword had never tasted blood since you acquired it, and you were eager to see its power.] [The moment the Heavenly Profound Sword appeared, you clearly sensed a surge of killing intent from the de.] [This killing intent wasn''t directed at anyone else, only at the Mortal Immortal from the Immortal n.] [At that moment, you suddenly understood something.] [You realized that this was likely influenced by the Sword Spirit Guo Qing''s hatred for the Immortal n.] [After all, Guo Qing had been in constant battle with the people of the Immortal Realm during his lifetime.] [It wasn''t surprising that he harbored killing intent toward the Immortal Realm!] [What you didn''t expect was that even though Guo Qing, as the Sword Spirit, was in a deep slumber, the Heavenly Profound Sword''s killing intent toward the Immortal Realm was still so pronounced.] [Under the shroud of the Heavenly Profound Sword''s killing intent, the Mortal Immortal from the Immortal Realm showed a drastic change in expression.] [He didn''t recognize the sword, but he sensed a strong feeling of impending death from it.] [He believed that continuing to fight you would undoubtedly lead to his death.] [He nced at you and, disregarding Little Peach''s earlier threats, turned and fled.] [Clearly, he felt that the threat from the Heavenly Profound Sword was greater than that from Little Peach, who was at the Earth Immortal realm.] [Seeing this, you chuckled softly, stroked the Heavenly Profound Sword, and then performed a somewhat unfamiliar killing intent sword technique.] [The True Meaning of the Killing Dao within you merged into the sword technique and converged onto the Heavenly Profound Sword.] [Instantly, the originally snow-white Heavenly Profound Sword turned blood-red, and a blood-like Sword Qi surged forth.] [It chased after the fleeing Mortal Immortal from the Immortal Realm.] ["Boom!" The Sword Qi pierced through his body!] [The Mortal Immortal from the Immortal Realm turned into a pool of blood, leaving no bones behind.] [Seeing this, you stroked the Heavenly Profound Sword, thoughts swirling in your mind.] [You felt that you could be bolder when facing people from the Immortal Realm in the future.] [Previously, you knew that the Heavenly Profound Sword could enhance yourbat strength, but you didn''t expect that using it against the Immortal n would not just provide a small buff, but a massive damage boost!] [This reminded you of a term from a game in your previous life: "counter weapon."] [The Heavenly Profound Sword was practically a counter weapon against the Immortal n!] [After the battle, you and Little Peach cleaned up the battlefield and headed toward the military camp in the direction of the Nine Mystic Realm.] [This small mission had earned you both some military merits.] [You gave all the merits to Little Peach, letting her exchange them for cultivation resources to rapidly advance her realm.] [Not only that, but you also gave her all the remaining resources you had.] [Little Peach initially refused, but under your insistence, she eventually epted.] [Afterward, she cultivated even more diligently.] [She felt that, no matter what, she couldn''t let you down.] [She also thought that if she became stronger, she could better protect you.] [In the days that followed, Little Peach went into seclusion for cultivation.] [You also continued to train inbat techniques andprehendws.] [In the 120th year, you stood alone in a training ground at a military camp.] [You felt a bit helpless.] [Ten years had passed, and the progress of the War God Body and the Killing Intent Sword Technique was extremely slow, barely reaching the entry level.] [As for theprehension ofws? Without external resources, you couldn''t use the Taotie Divine Body.] [Relying solely on your ownprehension was like a drop in the ocean, with minimal progress, almost imperceptible.] [And this was with the cultivation buffs from your Late Bloomer talent and the Heaven Rewards Diligence talent; without these two talents, you might not have made any progress at all in these ten years.] [At this moment, you suddenly realized something!] [You felt that perhaps leaving the Southern Regions was a mistake.] [If you had stayed in the Southern Regions, at least for the Killing Intent, the Law of Thunder, and even the Law of Fire, there seemed to be good resource points for you to cultivate.] [Just as you thought of this, you suddenly frowned.] [Was this another coincidence?] [No, impossible! You didn''t believe in so many coincidences.] Chapter 139: Already a person in the game "You think the resource points in the Southern Regions must have been prepared long ago for certain people!" "But who exactly is this person?" "You keep recalling the various characters that appeared in the Southern Regions during multiple simtions." "Finally, you are surprised to discover that this person is most likely yourself!" "After all, in multiple simtions, you never found anyone else in the Southern Regions using these resources." "The only one is you." "But you can''t quite understand, if these resource points were prepared for you?" "Then wouldn''t the one who set up these resource points know about the existence of the simtor?" "Otherwise, with your ordinary and unremarkable nature in reality, only indulging in food, drink, and y, it would be impossible for you to use these resources?""You have only used those resources multiple times in the simtions." "No, wait, maybe this powerful being is being controlled by the simtor." "Or perhaps there''s someone behind this powerful being?" "That person, the one controlling the simtor, can also control the actions of the powerful being?" "You can''t help but have a lot of wild thoughts." "As for a powerful being controlling the simtor?" "You haven''t considered that."n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om "After all, no matter how you look at it, you don''t think the simtor''s level is something those powerful beings can control." "After a long time, you suddenlyugh at yourself: ''So I was already a pawn in the game, but I realized it toote!''" "Previously, you suspected that the simtor might be using you." "But you didn''t expect that not only the simtor; some powerful beings might have known about your existence long ago." "The situation in the Southern Regions had already included you in the calctions." "But now, you''re wondering, when Bai Moyu said those powerful beings were plotting to seize the fragments of the Heavenly Dao, could it also be rted to you?" "Could it also be rted to the simtor?" "Moreover, besides these, during the time you spent on the Great Wilderness Battlefield." "You had some other thoughts." "That is, if the powerful beings of the Immortal Realm only wanted to plunder the fragments of the Heavenly Dao from the Nine Mystic Realm, then why does the Great Wilderness Battlefield exist?" "In these ces, those powerful beings couldpletely take action and directly kill all the people of the Nine Mystic Realm!" "If there were any special conditions, they could also transform these ces like the Southern Regions, reducing the number of cultivators from the Nine Mystic Realm!" "Wouldn''t that be more cost-effective?" "And it wouldn''t cause too much loss to the Immortal n of the Immortal Realm." "You find this very unreasonable." "Now, you even suspect, was Bai Moyu''s self-talk in the simtor really unknowing?" "Or did he already know about the simtor''s existence?" "Was he deliberately passing on false information to you?" "You feel that things are getting more and moreplicated!" "At the same time, you deeply feel a sense of crisis." "If your thoughts are correct." "Then the things you predicted using the simtor''s hints are likely inurate." "After all, if Bai Moyu or other powerful beings, or even those above the powerful beings, know about the simtor''s existence, then they must be watching you." "They might even know that you are using the simtor to improve." "If this person is an ally, that''s fine, there''s room for maneuver!" "But if it''s an enemy, then the crisis coulde at any time." "In your heart, you feel that if there is such a person, the probability of them being an ally is greater." "After all, if it were an enemy, they probably wouldn''t give you so much time to develop." "Of course, you don''t rule out the possibility that it''s an enemy with ulterior motives." "But no matter what, you feel that you must quickly improve your strength." "Because, whether it''s an ally or an enemy, only strength can keep you alive." "An ally would think that a strong pawn is more useful and would protect you." "And if it''s an enemy, only if you are strong can you have a chance to resist!" "Thinking of this, you look up at the sky and sigh: ''I can''t hide anymore, I can only fight!''" "Then you continue to mutter: ''Do you see? I''ve been in the game all along!''" "''If you want to survive, then work hard!!''" In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this and understood in his heart. This should be directed at him. Jiang Yifeng is not stupid; he just habitually doesn''t think about the dark side of things. Now, after seeing the words of Absolute Rationality in the simtion. He also understood his situation. He frowned, thinking to himself: "Can I really not hide anymore?" That''s right, Jiang Yifeng didn''t think about whether he was a pawn! When he first learned that the simtor might have potential dangers, he had already figured it out. Whether he was a pawn or not, as long as he could stay alive, it was enough. So, what he cares about now is not whether he has be a pawn. But whether he can still hide. After all, Jiang Yifeng really has no ambitions. He just wants to live a peaceful life. If he can''t hide, wouldn''t that be very dangerous? After a long time, Jiang Yifeng''s eyes lit up! He muttered to himself: "Nonsense, who says I can''t hide?" He felt that he was almost led astray by the Absolute Rationality in the simtor. Although he couldn''t hide in the simtion, in reality, he could still hide. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng''s mood instantly improved. Of course, Jiang Yifeng thought that his Absolute Rationality should also be referring to not being able to hide in the simtion! If he couldn''t even think of this. Then it would be a disgrace to this Absolute Rationality talent. So, Jiang Yifeng continued to look at the simtor. "In the days that followed, you didn''t follow the usual routine of cultivation." "Instead, you walked alone out of the military camp." "That''s right, there is no strict rule against leaving the military camp on the Great Wilderness Battlefield." "It''s just that most people don''t do this." "Because, outside the military camp, it is a danger zone." "The strong of the Immortal Realm would also hunt down the people of the Nine Mystic Realm!" "But you did it anyway." "Your purpose is to hope theye to hunt you." "You don''t care about battle merits; you care aboutbat power." "You want to train your Killing Intent Sword Art and War God Body through battles." "After all, the War God Art is a technique born for battle." "Previously, you didn''t want to take too many risks, so you followed the usual routine of cultivation." "Because you knew that if you used the Mortal Domain or had Little Peach''s protection, you wouldn''t be able to improve these two battle techniques throughbat." "Because these two battle techniques require battles where you are on the brink of death to improve." "But now that you have determined that following the usual routine is difficult to improve, you decide: then let there be battle!" Chapter 140: War God Body" shows its power, seeking aid from the Earth Immortal realm! [Year 121, you encountered members of the Immortal n twice.] [Both times, they were just small squads of three to five people, all at the Mortal Immortal realm.] [Seeing that you were only at the peak of Tribtion Crossing, they looked down on you.] [In the end, you killed them all on the spot.] [In these two battles, you didn''t even use the Heavenly Profound Sword.] [After all, you knew that once you used the Heavenly Profound Sword, these ordinary Mortal Immortals would be easily killed in seconds.] [That wouldn''t help you in training your War God Body.] [Year 122, you encountered members of the Immortal n three times.] [Again, they were just small squads, and after a fierce battle, you emerged victorious.][Year 123, you encountered five squads of the Immortal n.] [...] [As you moved further away from the Nine Mystic Realm military camp, the number of Immortal n squads you encountered increased.] [You spent every day either fighting or recovering from injuries.] [Yes, you often got injured too!] [After all, you were training to improve yourbat skills.] [Even when fighting opponents above your level and taking on multiple enemies at once.] [You rarely used the Mortal Domain, and even the Heavenly Profound Sword was seldom drawn.] [Year 125, after years of battle, you sessfully mastered the basics of the War God Body.] [Once you grasped this battle technique, you finally understood its power.] [The War God Body truly lives up to its name.] [It doesn''t provide any buffs during regr training, but in battle, the more you fight and the more you get injured, the stronger you be.] [The more severe your injuries, the greater the boost from the War God Body.] [It''s like a berserk mode, often allowing you to unleash power far beyond your limits at the brink of death, turning the tide in your favor!] [In modern terms, it''s like going berserk, the more health you lose, the stronger you be!] [Such a powerful martial technique was obtained from Wu Youdao, the reincarnation of the White Tiger.] [This made you feel a bit emotional.] [You finally understood why, when using the Eye of Insight to look at Wu Youdao''s past life as the White Tiger, it showed he had the ability to fight opponents above his level.] [Even without considering the True Meaning of the Killing Dao, just having the War God Body gave him the capability to fight above his level.] [However, now you think that perhaps it wasn''t Wu Youdao''s alone; it could very well be the secret technique of the White Tiger n!] [Otherwise, it wouldn''t make sense for such a powerful technique to belong to a mere Martial Saint realm White Tiger.] [It seems the White Tiger n had its ownplexities and secrets.] [Of course, this was just a passing thought, and you didn''t delve deeper.] [After all, these matters didn''t seem to have much to do with you at the moment.] [Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, several years went by.] [Year 138, you faced some crises.] [This year, you encountered a squad of the Immortal n led by an Earth Immortal.] [At first, they saw you were only at the peak of Tribtion Crossing and didn''t take you seriously.] [So they only sent Mortal Immortals to kill you.] [But you killed them all.] [In the end, the Earth Immortal personally took action.] [You didn''t run away.] [After all, after decades of battle, you had a clear understanding of your own strength.] [Ordinary Mortal Immortals could no longer pose a threat to you.] [So you had been looking forward to fighting an Earth Immortal.] [But you also knew that Earth Immortals were not to be underestimated.] [So you didn''t hold back and immediately summoned the Heavenly Profound Sword.] [After all, the Heavenly Profound Sword had bonus damage against the Immortal n.] [And using the sword didn''t affect the War God Body''s effect.] [At first, the Earth Immortal was caught off guard and was injured by your Heavenly Profound Sword.] [But he quickly adjusted.] [The gap between your realms was still toorge.] [He soon took control of the battle.] [Your injuries grew more severe.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [But as your injuries worsened, the War God Body''s effect kicked in.] [You grew stronger as you fought.] [This shocked the Earth Immortal.] [So you saw him shamelessly use a talisman and threw it into the air.] [You recognized this talisman.] [It was a signal used by the Immortal n on the Great Wilderness Battlefield to summon reinforcements.] [You had seen other Immortal n members use it in previous battles.] [But those times, your opponents were Mortal Immortals, and you could intercept it in time.] [But this time, you couldn''t!] [The talisman exploded in the air.] [You frowned and prepared to retreat.] [After all, your opponent was an Earth Immortal, and you couldn''t kill him quickly.] [And with reinforcementsing, they would at least be Earth Immortals, possibly even higher!] [If you continued to fight, you would be in danger.] [Your training aimed to survive through adversity, but you felt this situation was different.] [Having a small chance of victory is surviving through adversity.] [But a certain death situation is just throwing your life away!] [However, escaping wasn''t easy.] [The Earth Immortal stuck to you like glue.] [A day passed in the blink of an eye!] [Reinforcements arrived.] [Over a dozen Earth Immortals, and even one Heaven Immortal.] [Seeing this, you knew you were no match.] [You immediately used the Mortal Domain on everyone.] [When you used this talent, it startled the Immortal n members.] [But soon, they realized you had also lost your cultivation and turned into a mortal.] [Thus, your disaster began.] [Even as a mortal, their numerical advantage meant you were beaten badly.] [You were soon on the brink of death.] [Despite this, you remained calm, analyzing the situation.] [You considered whether to use another one-time talent.] [If you used "Come at me!", you felt you could still survive.] [But you felt it would be a waste to use this talent here.] [You focused on the Heaven Immortal.] [After he attacked you.] [And just as he pulled the weapon out of your body.] [You silently chanted to cancel the Mortal Domain.] [Instantly, your cultivation returned!] [Everyone was stunned.] [But in that moment, you decisively struck, piercing the Heaven Immortal''s forehead with your sword.] Chapter 141: Successful ambush, Heaven Immortal falls! [With a single strike, you instantly destroyed the Primordial Spirit of that Heaven Immortal from the Immortal n.] [The Primordial Spirit is the foundation of all cultivators. Once it is destroyed, survival is nearly impossible!] [Of course, this is based on the information you currently have.] [You can''t guarantee it to be absolutely correct.] [After all, the higher the realm, the more possibilities there are!] [But regardless, you know that Heaven Immortals have no other possibilities!] [Their existence still relies on their Primordial Spirit!] [At this moment, the Heaven Immortal from the Immortal n, knowing he had no chance of survival, gathered all the spiritual energy he could control, intending to self-destruct.] [He wanted to take you down with him.][Unfortunately for him, you anticipated his move!] [After your sessful strike, you immediately activated the Mortal Domain!] [The Heaven Immortal from the Immortal n failed to self-destruct!] [In the end, he only managed to give you onest look before dying, without even having the chance to say anything.] [Of course, you didn''t just anticipate the possibility of the Heaven Immortal self-destructing.] [You were also worried that after your strike, other Earth Immortals from the Immortal n would gang up on you.] [So, you knew you only had one chance for a strike.] [After the strike, whether it seeded or not, you would activate the Mortal Domain again.] [You knew that only by making everyone a mortal could you survive longer.] [After all, even without your cultivation, you still have your talent. Although most of your talents might not be useful, the Yimu Divine Body gives you greater resilience.] [After the Heaven Immortal from the Immortal n died, the other members of the Immortal n looked at you with awe.] [Even though you all turned back into mortals, they didn''t dare to attack you recklessly.] [After all, they had already learned a lesson and didn''t dare to rx even a bit.] [Seeing this, you sighed inwardly, "As expected, this method can only be used once."] [This was also why you chose the Heaven Immortal as your target.] [After all, he posed the greatest threat to you.] [You also knew that under normal circumstances, you couldn''t kill a Heaven Immortal.] [Such a powerful being, when prepared, is hard to hit in a fatal spot.] [Even if you hit, during a battle, everyone would use defensive techniques to protect themselves.] [Given the vast gap in cultivation between you and a Heaven Immortal, even with the Heavenly Profound Sword, it would be hard to break through their defenses and then destroy their Primordial Spirit.] [The fact that you seeded now can only be attributed to your calcted move against an unprepared opponent.] [Your sudden attack caught everyone off guard.] [Nobody expected that everyone''s cultivation would suddenly be restored.] [After all, their strongest member was only a Heaven Immortal.] [They didn''t understand the true value of the Mortal Domain.] [The Heaven Immortal didn''t have time to use any defensive techniques and was ambushed by you.] [Of course, besides these factors, there was another important reason: you were heavily injured at the time.] [This triggered the blood rage ability of your War God Body.] [The power of your recent strike was several times stronger than usual.] [It was thebination of all these conditions that gave you the chance to kill the Heaven Immortal.] [At this moment, you looked at the Immortal n members who didn''t dare to move and smiled slightly.] [You didn''t bother with them and instead focused on adjusting your state.] [You even started to sleep soundly in front of them.] [You looked quite rxed.] [But the Immortal n members felt miserable.] [They worried it was a trap and didn''t dare to attack you easily.] [But they also didn''t dare to let their guard down, fearing you might ambush them.] [As for running away?] [Yes, running away, they immediately thought of this.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [Thus, a group of mortal Immortal n members appeared on the Great Wilderness Battlefield!] [How long they could survive, you didn''t know.] [Because, in the Great Wilderness Battlefield, it is extremely difficult for mortals to survive.] [Even if they were lucky enough not to encounter other people from the Nine Mystic Realm.] [You didn''t intend to let them go either.] [After all, you didn''t want the higher-ups of the Immortal n to know about your Mortal Domain.] [So, after they started running, you closely followed them.] [You didn''t attack them directly, just kept them on edge.] [Making them stay constantly vignt.] [Time slowly passed.] [You were very rxed every day, even having time to find food to fill your stomach.] [Yes, you all became mortals and could no longer practice inedia, and the storage rings wouldn''t open, so you had to find food.] [But the Immortal n members had a harder time.] [They had more people, making it harder to find food.] [And they couldn''t act separately.] [Because if they split up, you would follow and ambush them.] [Your tactics made them suffer greatly!] [A few dayster.] [The Immortal n members were already gaunt and had heavy dark circles under their eyes.] [They couldn''t help it; with you around, they couldn''t eat well or sleep well.] [If they dared to sleep soundly, you would ambush them.] [As for attacking you?] [Let''s just say, they missed the best opportunity when they chose to run at the beginning.] [Because your condition was getting better while theirs was getting worse.] [Afterwards, you spent three whole months, exhausting almost all of the dozen Earth Immortal experts to death.] [Leaving only thest one, you chose to fight him fairly.] [After all, even in a direct confrontation, you could fight an Earth Immortal.] [Although you would get injured and be at a disadvantage, such an opponent was perfect for your training!] [However, the Earth Immortal from the Immortal n seemed to have lost the courage to fight you.] [When his cultivation was restored, he turned and ran.] [Seeing this, you just shook your head lightly.] [You couldn''t catch up with him, and he didn''t want to fight you, so there was nothing you could do.] [In the end, you had to use the Mortal Domain again to kill him.] [Afterwards, you found a cave to digest thebat experience.] [This battle, whichsted several months.] [Although not all direct confrontations.] [It significantly increased yourbat experience.] [Besides that, after digesting it, you found that your War God Body had reached the minor achievement stage.] [The only thing that hadn''t progressed was the Sword of Killing Intent.] [You still couldn''t master this sword technique.] [You sighed inwardly about this!] [In fact, you already roughly knew the reason for your inability to master it.] [After many insights, you realized that cultivating the Sword of Killing Intent requires various emotions to umte, but with your Absolute Rationality, your heart always remains calm.] [This sword technique is not suitable for you to cultivate.] Chapter 142: Commander of the Great Wilderness Battlefield, Lu Xuanqing [In the blink of an eye, several years have passed!] [It is now the 145th year since your simtion began!] [At this moment, you have already killed Earth Immortal level Immortal n experts multiple times on your own.] [Although the Heavenly Profound Sword''s buff yed a part in this.] [Nevertheless, you can be considered to have officially attained the strength to rival ordinary Earth Immortal level experts.] [However, you have discovered a problem: your cultivation efficiency has slowed down again.] [Because Earth Immortal level experts no longer give you that feeling of rebirth through death.] [If you still want to enhance your War God Body and increase yourbat power through battles!] [You must set your sights on stronger Heaven Immortal level opponents.][But, can you really achieve this?] [Excluding that previous sneak attack, can yourbat power truly contend with Heaven Immortal level experts?] [It''s difficult! Extremely difficult! You know it''s almost impossible.] [After all, the power gap between mortals and immortals is enormous.] [The fact that you can kill Earth Immortal level experts head-on while still at the Tribtion Crossing stage is already a miracle among miracles!] [To think of battling Heaven Immortal level experts is almost like a fantasy.] [Unless your variousws undergo a qualitative improvement.] [But, that seems even harder than enhancing your War God Body.] [Becauseprehending the power ofws is something exclusive to those above the Immortal realm.] [The fact that you couldprehendws before reaching the Immortal realm was due to your talent and the special resources in the Southern Regions.] [But now, on this Great Wilderness Battlefield, those special resource points are not avable.] [In fact, you have tried using the Taotie Divine Body to devour some Immortal n cultivators.] [Unfortunately, it had no effect!] [You are unsure whether this is a w of the Taotie Divine Body or due to other reasons!] [For a time, your path to improvement seems to have hit a bottleneck!] [You can no longer progress quickly!] [So, this year, you returned to the military camp in the Nine Mystic Realm.] [You began to cultivate step by step.] [In the 150th year, your progress was slow, with no significant improvements in any aspect!] [In the 170th year, you heard the mournful sound of a horn outside the camp.] [You saw a team of dozens returning.] [You had some impression of this team!] [This was the team you saw when you first arrived at the Great Wilderness Battlefield decades ago!] [You still remember that when they set out, this team wasposed of thousands of Immortal realm experts.] [Unexpectedly, they fought for several decades.] [And only a few dozen returned safely!] [This made you realize that the real battlefield is much more brutal than those small tasks you took on!] [However, you didn''t pay much attention to it.] [After all, the lives and deaths of these people have nothing to do with you.] [All you want is to improve your strength!] [In the 200th year, the horn of deployment sounded in the camp you were assigned to.] [You did not refuse; instead, you had been looking forward to it!] [You do not need to train on arge battlefield to improve.] [You hope to use this opportunity to see the higher-ups of the Nine Mystic Realm.] [You have been on the Great Wilderness Battlefield for so long, but you have never seen those experts.] [This is actually seriously inconsistent with your n.] [But you have no way to change it; after all, if they don''t show up, you don''t know where to find them.] [Now, you think thisrge-scale battlefield might be your chance to contact them!] [In the 210th year, you had been fighting the people of the Immortal Realm for several years.] [It can be said that the battles were quite intense on both sides!] [And this year, the oue was finally decided.] [Your army won a tragic victory!] [You also "luckily" survived.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [In fact, your contribution to the Nine Mystic Realm''s victory in this war was quite significant.] [You secretly used the Mortal Domain on the people of the Immortal Realm multiple times, allowing the people of the Nine Mystic Realm to inexplicably kill their opponents!] [It''s just that ordinary people find it hard to notice.] [As for why you did this?] [Naturally, it was to show it to someone extraordinary!] [A few dayster, your army returned in triumph!] [All the surviving soldiers received considerable military merits!] [And you were no exception.] [However, the extraordinary person you wanted to meet did not show up.] [A month passed in the blink of an eye.] [One night, a figure appeared out of thin air in your tent.] [The visitor was a middle-aged man, looking at you with curious eyes, without speaking!] [And you were not panicked.] [You immediately used the Eye of Insight to check his information.] [The visitor''s information was: Lu Xuanqing, Great Principal Golden Immortal level,mander of the Nine Mystic Realm''s Great Wilderness Battlefield, one of the strongest in the Great Wilderness Battlefield.] [Seeing this, you understood that the fish had finally taken the bait.] [As you used the Eye of Insight to check Lu Xuanqing''s information, he seemed to sense it.] [He looked at you with even more curiosity!] [After a long time, Lu Xuanqing spoke first.] [He asked you if the ability you used on therge battlefield was "Extinguish Law."] [You nodded and admitted it frankly.] [After all, you had already learned from the Sword Spirit Guo Qing that your Mortal Domain is considered "Extinguish Law" in the eyes of cultivators!] [After hearing this answer, Lu Xuanqing nodded and did not ask further about it!] [But he changed the subject and said, "You lured me here? What is your intention?"] [Obviously, Lu Xuanqing saw through your intentions.] [You are not sure if he knows the use of the Mortal Domain?] [If he saw through your deliberate concealment on the battlefield and realized you were trying to lure him here.] [Or if he had other ways to see through it.] [But it doesn''t matter!] [You are not afraid of being seen through.] [You directly told him that you hope he can protect you while you cross the tribtion to be an immortal!] [And as an exchange, you are willing to be at his disposal!] [You said that if needed, you could use "Extinguish Law" to help the Nine Mystic Realm win the war on the Great Wilderness Battlefield.] [Hearing your words, Lu Xuanqing sneered and said, "Are you naive? Or do you think I''m naive?"] [Hearing this, you knew that Lu Xuanqing was not fooled!] [You can indeed use the Mortal Domain to help the Nine Mystic Realm win the war on the Great Wilderness Battlefield.] [But you know that this actually has no real effect.] [After all, the Nine Mystic Realm''s war is not limited to this ce; even if you kill all the Immortal n people here.] [It is useless; it will only make the Immortal Realm pay more attention here and send more experts.] [So, if you dare to do that, you would actually be doing a disservice to the Great Wilderness Battlefield!] Chapter 143: The sensation of palpitations reappears [Since the other party didn''t fall for it.] [You didn''t mind, as you didn''t expect to seed in deceiving them anyway.] [So, you directly asked what you needed to do for them to be willing to help!] [It looked like you were being honest.] [After all, you really had nothing to trade with a Great Principal Golden Immortal.] [If you did, you probably wouldn''t want to part with it.] [Of course, it only looked that way. Since you dared to lure the other party here, you must have some confidence!] [Lu Xuanqing looked at you for a long time, thenughed heartily and said, "You are a Chosen of the Nine Mystic Realm. If you need help, I will protect you!"] [Upon hearing this, you immediately disyed a look of surprise!][It seemed you hadn''t expected Lu Xuanqing to agree so easily.] [Finally, you agreed that in one year, when you break through to be an immortal, Lu Xuanqing would personally protect you!] [After that, Lu Xuanqing left, leaving only a sentence: "Don''t be so cunning in the future. Sincerity is more likable!"] [To this, you remained nomittal.] [In your heart, you thought, "If I weren''t cunning, I probably wouldn''t even get to see you!"] [Moreover, this oue was within your expectations!] [The current situation of the Nine Mystic Realm is so obvious. Those still fighting for it are clearly righteous people. How could they refuse a request from a Chosen like you?] [So, you knew long ago that as long as you could meet these high-level figures and not make them particrly dislike you, your conditions would be epted!] [After Lu Xuanqing left, you stopped cultivating.] [Since you agreed to break through and be an immortal in a year.] [You must start preparing now.] [In the following days, you recorded something every day!] [In the blink of an eye, a few months passed, and you finally stopped writing.] [You suddenly looked up at the sky and said, "Enter for two months!"] In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this and understood that the words were directed at him. In fact, when his simted self started writing, Jiang Yifeng had this suspicion. He knew it might be to let him enter a deep simtion. He knew that his simted self was preparing for the worst. Clearly, his simted self thought that even with a Great Principal Golden Immortal protecting him, there might still be danger. So, he wanted to gather some information. Without hesitation, Jiang Yifeng silently said, "Start a deep simtion for two months!" [Ding, starting deep simtion for two months, deducting 1400 origin values, remaining origin values.] In an instant, Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness entered the simtion. After entering, he didn''t make any unnecessary moves. Instead, he picked up a thick notebook beside him and began to study it seriously. He knew that these things had been written over several months. He needed to memorize everything in a short time. So, he didn''t dare to waste any time. Time passed bit by bit. In the blink of an eye, two months passed. [Ding, deep simtion ended!] Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness returned to reality. At this moment, his mind was filled with a lot of information. Among them were the coordinates of the teleportation array to the Great Wilderness Battlefield. There were various cultivation experiences and many pill recipes he had never seen before. Of course, those cultivation experiences couldn''t directly improve Jiang Yifeng. They could only help him improve faster in the future. And the pill recipes were the same, making it easier for him to learn alchemy in the future without having to experiment bit by bit. He could take some shortcuts, but it couldn''t directly improve him! However, this was clearly the best choice. If he did a full deep simtion, Jiang Yifeng could improve more, but he couldn''t afford the origin values. After all, to reach the immortal realm, he would need a massive amount of origin values to upgrade the simtor. No matter what, upgrading the simtor was the best choice. For this, his strength improvement could be put on hold for a while. After organizing the information in his memory, Jiang Yifeng continued to look at the simtor. [You saw the words "read" on the notebook and understood.] [In the following time, you didn''t do anything else.] [You were very leisurely every day, waiting for Lu Xuanqing to arrive.] [In the blink of an eye, another two months passed.] [You still hadn''t seen Lu Xuanqing, but Little Peach hade out of seclusion.] [Originally, you hadn''t nned to call Little Peach out.] [Unexpectedly, she came out on her own!] [After all, ording to your current n, Little Peach was no longer of any use.] [Previously, you had her go into seclusion as a long-term n.] [You were worried that you might never meet the high-level figures of the Nine Mystic Realm in the Great Wilderness Battlefield.] [And couldn''t find anyone to protect you.] [So, you could invest in Little Peach, let her quickly reach a very high realm, and then have her protect you!] [But now, you found a Great Principal Golden Immortal like Lu Xuanqing.] [You felt you could give it a try.] [You looked at Little Peach in front of you and used the Eye of Insight to examine her.] [You found that Little Peach''s cultivation had reached the True Immortal realm.] [Aftering to the Great Wilderness Battlefield, you knew that after reaching the immortal realm, it usually took thousands or tens of thousands of years for ordinary people to advance a small realm.] [But Little Peach, after only a hundred years of seclusion, had directly advanced two great realms!] [If ordinary people saw this speed of improvement, their jaws would have dropped!] [Obviously, you were not an ordinary person.] [You were not surprised by her great improvement.] [After all, you always thought her talent was too extraordinary, and this improvement was within your expectations.] [You hoped she could bring you surprises and shocks.] [After all, you were about to cross the tribtion to be an immortal. If Little Peach could quickly reach an unimaginable realm.] [Wouldn''t that make you even safer?] [However, this thought only shed through your mind for a moment.] [After all, the rational you were not used to daydreaming!] [In the 211th year, one day, Lu Xuanqing appeared in your camp.] [He didn''t say much, only asked if you were ready!] [After confirming you were ready, he directly took you and flew out of the camp.] [After all, crossing the tribtion was no joke and couldn''t be done in the camp.] [But after you were taken away by Lu Xuanqing, Little Peach seemed to sense something.] [She looked in the direction you left and quickly chased after you.] [In a deserted area of the Great Wilderness Battlefield.] [You nced at Lu Xuanqing not far away and saw him nodding in approval.] [You didn''t hesitate any longer and began to prepare for your breakthrough.] [You operated your cultivation technique with all your might, drawing in spiritual energy and primordial energy, making them boil and sublimate!] [The spiritual energy and primordial energy within you began to merge again!] [Transforming into golden chaotic energy.] [As the spiritual energy and primordial energy merged, your aura grew stronger and stronger.] [In the sky, tribtion clouds began to gather, and the sound of tribtion lightning began to rumble.] [At this moment, that sense of unease in your heart struck again.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [You frowned slightly.] [How could this be?] [Even with a Great Principal Golden Immortal protecting you, it''s not enough?] [Do you have to stop the breakthrough again?] [You took a deep breath and made a decision.] [No, even if it fails, it''s just another simtion!] [You wanted to see if the danger came from the tribtion itself or if there would be a strong enemy attacking!] Chapter 144: Shadow of the Giant! Crisis Emerges Chapter 144: Shadow of the Giant! Crisis Emerges "Of course, the most important thing is that if you don''t break through to the Mortal Immortal realm now, continuing the simtion would just be a waste of time." "After all, there''s nothing more to improve at the Tribtion Crossing Realm." "Everything has reached its limit, unless you canprehend thews." "But there are no resources on the Great Wilderness Battlefield to help youprehend thews." "And you can''t leave the Great Wilderness Battlefield now; it''s a rule that won''t be broken just for you." "Relying on your ownprehension to understand thews? Too difficult!" "You can''t even sense thews, so how could youprehend them?" "You might as well take a gamble." "You fully mobilize the spiritual energy and primordial energy within your body, elerating their fusion.""As they continue to merge, the golden chaotic energy within you increases." "With a ''boom,'' a purple-gold tribtion lightning descends from the sky." "You sense a trace of threat from that tribtion lightning!" "But it''s just a trace!" "You know that the real threat that makes your heart race hasn''t appeared yet!" "You''re not sure if it will be the next tribtion lightning or something else!" "You can only continue to wait!" "But Lu Xuanqing, who is protecting you, looks much more serious when he sees the tribtion lightning." "He senses a trace of chaotic energy within the purple-gold tribtion lightning." "He murmurs to himself, ''This isn''t the Heavenly Dao tribtion lightning of the Nine Mystic Realm; it''s chaotic tribtion lightning!''" "He didn''t expect that you would attract chaotic tribtion lightning." "Normally, when crossing the tribtion to be an immortal, the lightning is blue or purple, representing the Heavenly Dao tribtion lightning of this realm." "For ordinary cultivators, the tribtion lightning is blue; for the chosen ones, it''s the more powerful purple lightning." "As for more monstrous geniuses, their tribtionsts longer, and they endure more lightning strikes!" "Even though the Heavenly Dao of the Nine Mystic Realm has shattered, it only makes it harder to attract the tribtion lightning to be an immortal."n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om "Thesemon understandings haven''t changed!" "But your tribtion lightning has directly skipped the Heavenly Dao tribtion lightning of this realm and attracted chaotic lightning!" "Lu Xuanqing has heard of such things, but only as legends." "And as far as he knows, those who attract chaotic tribtion lightning to be immortals are not in the Nine Mystic Realm but are taken to the endless void, where chaotic tribtion lightning is forcibly attracted." "After all, stronger tribtion lightning means greater potential and strength after bing a Mortal Immortal." "However, ording to Lu Xuanqing, most of those who forcibly attract chaotic tribtion lightning die under it." "Those who sessfully cross it are very few!" "But every one of them who seeds bes an invincible powerhouse." "Someone Lu Xuanqing can only look up to!" "At this moment, he thinks he understands why you asked him to protect you." "But as he looks at the purple-gold tribtion lightning, he smiles bitterly, ''What a pity!''" "If it were any other crisis, he could help you, but with this tribtion lightning, he''s powerless!" "You have to rely on yourself to get through it!" "Clearly, Lu Xuanqing has misunderstood." "He thinks you must have sensed the danger of the tribtion lightning!" "That''s why you asked him to protect you." "How could he know that you don''t even consider this chaotic tribtion lightning a threat, but are wary of the dangers that follow!" "The purple-gold tribtion lightning gets closer and closer to you!" "You have several choices now; you could use the Taotie Divine Body to devour it, but that carries some risk, though the benefits should be considerable if sessful!" "You could also use the Yimu Divine Body to withstand it, which should enhance your physical body!" "But in the end, you choose to use the Battle Technique ''War God Body.''" "You charge towards the purple-gold tribtion lightning." "This choice seems the worst, but you think it''s the safest." "After all, fighting the tribtion lightning with the War God Body, although it will injure you, will also indirectly enhance your strength." "Stronger power will give you a better chance to handle the subsequent dangers." "Whether those dangers are more tribtion lightning or something else." "Fight!" "After dozens of minutes, blood marks appear all over your body!" "By now, you have fought against dozens of purple-gold tribtion lightning strikes." "Although you disperse each lightning strike, you also suffer significant injuries." "But you think that''s not important." "Because your goal is achieved, your current injuries are the best state for the War God Body''s buff." "And you won''t lose sustainedbat power due to severe injuries." "You feel that you are now at your peak, the limit of yourbat power!" "This is a state you have never reached before." "After all, in previous battles, you couldn''t stack buffs." "Either the enemy was defeated before you could fully activate the War God Body," "Or the enemy was so strong that even at full power, the injuries were too severe for prolongedbat!" "But now it''s different; you use the tribtion lightning to adjust your state to the best." "You feel that now, even if a Heaven Immortales, you dare to fight head-on!" "But even so, does yourbat power matter?" "You don''t know, but you have to try." "You won''t miss any chance to increase your sess rate!" "Boom! Another tribtion lightning strikes." "You are just about to face it again." "Suddenly, a sense of dread surges in your heart!" "You nce at Lu Xuanqing in the distance and see that he is still vigntly watching the surroundings, without any action." "So, you stare intently at the rapidly approaching purple-gold tribtion lightning." "Muttering to yourself, ''Could this sense of dread reallye from the tribtion lightning?''" "You are puzzled!" "After all, you don''t see anything special about this tribtion lightning." "The tribtion lightning falls, and you fight it with the War God Body." "You don''t suffer too much damage." "At this moment, the fusion of spiritual energy and primordial energy within you reaches the final stage." "You feel that you only need five more minutes!" "Topletely merge all the spiritual energy and primordial energy!" "Turning them all into that golden gas." "You have a premonition that at that moment, you will sessfully break through!" "And you believe that you will have a qualitative improvement!" "But can it be that smooth?" "Obviously not!" "Suddenly, you see the originally blood-red sky darken." "A giant phantom appears in the sky, blocking the light!" "The giant phantom stares at you intently as if discovering a treasure." "At this moment, your sense of dread reaches its peak." "You sigh in your heart, ''It''s here after all!''" Chapter 145: The worst plan! Chapter 145: The worst n! "You know, this is your real crisis." In the distance, Lu Xuanqing nced at you, a bitter smile tugging at the corner of his mouth. He thought to himself, you really think highly of him, don''t you? Such an enemy, and you actually let him protect you! However, Lu Xuanqing did not back down. He shouted, "Stop the war!" A silver spear appeared in Lu Xuanqing''s hand. With the spear in hand, Lu Xuanqing''s entire aura changed! He shouted, "Fight!" And charged towards the giant shadow!Seeing this, you couldn''t help but mourn for Lu Xuanqing for two minutes. Just now, you had used the Eye of Insight to look at the information of the giant shadow. The information was: Immortal Thirteen, ??? You roughly guessed that this Immortal Thirteen was the name of the giant, but everything else was question marks, clearly because the opponent''s strength was too overwhelming for you to discern. Although you didn''t know the exact strength of the giant shadow, You felt that it might be one of the great powers. Of course, this was just a guess, but in any case, it was at least a half-step great power. Based on multiple simtions, you knew you couldn''t see the strength of a half-step great power. As for which realm of the Immortal Dao it corresponded to? You didn''t know. But you believed that the lowest level of a great power should be the Saint realm. After all, your Eye of Insight could discern the strength of a Great Principal Golden Immortal. So a half-step great power should at least be at the Quasi-Saint realm. A great power could only be at the Saint realm! Of course, this was just your guess, it was also possible that this great power was at an even higher realm! While you were pondering these things, you suddenly heard a "smack." You saw the giant shadow casually p at Lu Xuanqing. Lu Xuanqing instantly turned into a mist of blood, with only his Primordial Spirit escaping. And the giant shadow didn''t even nce at Lu Xuanqing from beginning to end. It was as if he was swatting a fly! Clearly, the gap in strength between him and Lu Xuanqing was not just a little bit. Seeing this, you understood that Lu Xuanqing waspletely unreliable. After shattering Lu Xuanqing''s physical body, the giant shadow made no further moves. He just kept staring at you, as if waiting for something! You frowned slightly. Unclear of his intentions. But you knew he definitely had some purpose. And it was certainly not good for you! Should you just sit and wait for death? See what his ultimate goal is? Or should you stop the tribtion crossing now, while the tribtion is still ongoing, using the Mortal Domain? In the end, you came up with a n. Actually, it wasn''t a n you just thought of. It was the worst-case scenario you had prepared for a long time! You felt it was time to use it. Although, even if the n seeded, you would still be in a miserable state! But you decided to give it a try! After all, sitting and waiting for death, you couldn''t think of any benefits. But using your trump card might get you some information. No matter what, you felt it couldn''t be worse than now! So, you directly used your trump card, the talent "Come at me!" But this time, you didn''t choose Bai Moyu as the target, but Shen Wutian. As soon as you used "Come at me!" The space around you rippled. The giant shadow sensed it and seemed to be pondering. Finally, he looked at you and grinned! In fact, the giant shadow had the ability to stop the spatial ripples, rendering your talent useless. But he didn''t do so, as if he had discovered something interesting! Soon, Shen Wutian, dressed in ck, appeared before you. As soon as Shen Wutian appeared, he locked eyes with you. You quickly stepped back a few paces,ining in your heart, "This distance is way too close!" At this moment, Shen Wutian also saw you.N?v(el)B\\jnn He looked confused. He remembered clearly that he was hiding in an ancient relic, so how did he suddenly appear here? Where was this? Who forcibly brought him here? However, fortunately, the first person he saw after being teleported was you. This made him rx a bit! He thought to himself, "Just a guy about to be a god, no threat!" Be a god? Suddenly, Shen Wutian realized something. He looked at you with surprise. He didn''t expect to be mysteriously teleported in front of someone cultivating the Divine Dao. This was simply a windfall! Because of his inner joy, Shen Wutian didn''t immediately observe anyone else. You felt it necessary to remind him. You were worried that Shen Wutian might lose his self-awareness at any moment. After all, based on previous simtions, you knew that once Shen Wutian left the ancient relic, he would gradually be controlled by the great powers of the Immortal Realm and lose his self-awareness. So, you pointed to the sky in front of Shen Wutian. Shen Wutian instinctively followed your finger. When he saw the giant shadow, his face turned pale. Gradually, Shen Wutian felt his consciousness slipping out of control. At this moment, he seemed to think of something! Shen Wutian grabbed at you! Seeing this, you didn''t resist. Instead, you smiled slightly. Just before Shen Wutian grabbed you, you swallowed a blood-colored Immortal Pill that you had been holding in your mouth! The moment the pill entered your stomach, Your Primordial Spirit was instantly enveloped by the pill! Although this pill was just a basic Immortal Pill, You had used many forbidden methods to specially craft it. It had no other effect. But it could keep your Primordial Spirit alive for three days! Of course, this only applied to being devoured. You could say this pill was specially prepared for Shen Wutian devouring you. If he wanted to kill your Primordial Spirit, this pill would be useless. Your n was simple. It was to make Shen Wutian confront the giant shadow in the sky! You believed that the giant shadow definitely had some designs on you. And you knew Shen Wutian was a madman. To escape the control of the great powers, he would definitely choose to devour you and break through to a higher realm! In this way, Shen Wutian would inevitably sh with the giant shadow. Of course, you also considered the possibility that the giant shadow was the great power. Would Shen Wutian dare not resist? Dare not devour you? But based on Shen Wutian''s previous mad behavior in the simtions, You believed that as long as he saw a glimmer of hope, he would definitely gamble! You also considered the possibility that the giant shadow might not have time to stop Shen Wutian, and you would be directly devoured! So, the blood-colored Immortal Pill you just swallowed was yourst resort. Even if you were directly devoured, you could use those three days of your Primordial Spirit''s survival to gather some information! And now, things were going as you expected. Shen Wutian made a move on you! You looked up at the giant shadow, a grin spreading across your face! Muttering to yourself, "So, how will you respond?" Chapter 146: Berserk Mode Little Peach "Immortal Thirteen saw Shen Wutian''s actions and shouted, ''Shen Wutian, stop!''" Shen Wutian acted as if he hadn''t heard, his eyes fixated solely on you. He only wanted to devour you, break through, and then escape the control of those powerful beings in the Immortal Realm! Immortal Thirteen frowned slightly at this. He knew Shen Wutian. Now he also understood Shen Wutian''s intentions. Immortal Thirteen hadn''t expected that by using the power of the Heavenly Dao fragments, you would actually pull this madman over. This truly caught him off guard. He now regretted it a bit; if he had known, he would have stopped you.He had been a bit too arrogant just now. Of course, it wasn''t that he feared Shen Wutian. It was because Shen Wutian''s actions were affecting his interests. You were currently undergoing the chaotic tribtion lightning, a perfect opportunity to repair the Heavenly Dao fragments. If you sessfully crossed the tribtion, the fragments on you would certainly be moreplete. By then, if he made his move, he could gain even more benefits. But now, if you were devoured by Shen Wutian, the chaotic tribtion lightning would be gone. And even if he intervened to stop Shen Wutian, it wouldn''t work. After all, a battle between someone at his Saint realm and Shen Wutian at the peak of Quasi-Saint! Even the chaotic tribtion lightning would have to retreat! By then, your chaotic tribtion lightning would also be forced to end. It seemed like your n had seeded. Now, Immortal Thirteen was indeed a bit ufortable. But it could only be said that it was purely a case of a blind cat stumbling upon a dead mouse! In the end, Immortal Thirteen couldn''t help but make a move. But Shen Wutian wasn''t easy to deal with either. He actually withstood an attack from Immortal Thirteen. With one palm, he pierced through your Qi Sea, grabbed your Nascent Soul, and swallowed it whole. After losing your Nascent Soul, your aura plummeted. But you didn''t die; after all, your Primordial Spirit in your Sea of Consciousness was still there. It was also protected by that blood pill. Because of the sudden change in you, the chaotic tribtion lightning in the sky seemed to lose its target and began to dissipate. You weren''t angry about the current situation. Instead, you calmly observed everything. But Immortal Thirteen was furious. He shouted at Shen Wutian, "You''re courting death!" However, he didn''t continue to attack Shen Wutian. Instead, he grabbed you. He sensed that with the loss of your Nascent Soul, the Heavenly Dao fragments on you could dissipate at any moment. What he needed to do now was to extract the Heavenly Dao fragments from you in time. After that, he would settle the score with Shen Wutian. At this moment, Shen Wutian, who had been struck by Immortal Thirteen, was already on the verge of death. But he didn''t care and wasughing maniacally. He had bet correctly; Immortal Thirteen didn''t immediately attack him. And with your Nascent Soul devoured, his cultivation was rapidly increasing. He thought that by the time Immortal Thirteen was free to act, he might have already broken through and would no longer fear him. You were held in Immortal Thirteen''s hand, his palm pressed against your forehead, ready to extract the Heavenly Dao fragments from you. Just then, you heard a voice calling out, "Young Master!" Little Peach had arrived! No, she had been nearby all along, but no one had paid attention to her. After all, what could a True Immortal cultivator amount to in the eyes of powerhouses like Immortal Thirteen and Shen Wutian? Not even a grasshopper.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om After calling out to you, Little Peach began to step through the air, one step at a time! At first, no one but you paid any attention to her. But as she approached, even Immortal Thirteen showed a look of surprise. Because it was too astonishing. One step, one realm! Mystic Immortal, Golden Immortal, Supreme Unity Golden Immortal, Great Principal Golden Immortal, Quasi-Saint, Saint realm! Yes, by the time Little Peach reached Immortal Thirteen, she had already reached the Saint realm. At this moment, you were already dumbfounded. You had thought Little Peach had extraordinary talent and a significant background. But what was this? There was no time for you to continue thinking. Little Peach directly attacked Immortal Thirteen. With one strike, Immortal Thirteen spat out a mouthful of blood. Crushed! Immortal Thirteen at the Saint realm was crushed by Little Peach. At this moment, Immortal Thirteen couldn''t care about seizing the Heavenly Dao fragments from you and turned to flee. He was truly terrified. In battles between those at the Saint realm, when had he ever not fought for tens of thousands of years to determine a slight advantage? But now, he was injured by a single strike from someone of the same realm. He was genuinely scared! As for Shen Wutian, he had long since crouched to the side, trembling. He didn''t dare make a sound, fearing Little Peach would notice him. But he didn''t see that after Immortal Thirteen fled, Little Peach''s expression also changed. Little Peach didn''t look at Shen Wutian but walked up to you. She gently touched your face, as if reminiscing about something. You were just about to ask why. Then you saw Little Peach''s body turn into grains of sand, scattering with the wind. What? Seeing this, you instantly understood that Little Peach''s outburst just now must have been a desperate move. She had driven away Immortal Thirteen, but the price was her life. But why? You sighed; although Immortal Thirteen had been driven away. Your crisis wasn''t over! And this danger was something you had personally brought over. Just as you thought of this, Shen Wutian appeared before you. Shen Wutian felt that even the heavens were helping him. His greatest threat, Immortal Thirteen, had been driven away. And the one who drove away Immortal Thirteen had perished! Now he was invincible here. He felt like he was the chosen one. In the end, you were still devoured by Shen Wutian. Not a trace was left. However, that blood-colored forbidden Immortal Pill of yours did indeed have an effect. It wasn''t in vain that you killed so many people to refine this pill. The pill significantly slowed down Shen Wutian''s devouring of your Primordial Spirit. Your Primordial Spirit managed to survive for three more days. During these three days, you kept thinking. Had you over-calcted in this simtion? If you hadn''t made the worst-case n! Wouldn''t you have been safe after Little Peach''s outburst and driving away Immortal Thirteen? Your Absolute Rationality couldn''t help but start to doubt itself. But who could have known that Little Peach would make such an outburst at thest moment? It could only be said that you had too little information. Three dayster, your Primordial Spirit waspletely devoured. You died at the age of 231! Simtion ended! You may choose two rewards from the list below for this simtion. Chapter 147: Decide to chill! [Mortal Domain (Talent), Divine Dao Cultivation, Heavenly Profound Sword, Immortal-grade Alchemist, War God Body (Small Sess Peak), Silent Destruction Fist (Great Sess), Wind Chasing Art (Perfect)...] [Mortal Domain (Talent)]: Price 1000 origin values. [Divine Dao Cultivation]: Price 100,000 origin values. (Note: Possesses a half-divine body that has crossed half the tribtion.) [Heavenly Profound Sword]: Price 1,000,000 origin values. (Hint: The sword does not contain Sword Spirit Guo Qing; Note: It is a conscious entity and cannot be extracted into reality from the simtion.) [Immortal-grade Alchemist]: Price 200,000 origin values. [War God Body (Small Sess Peak)]: Price 100,000 origin values. (Note: A supreme acquired physique achieved through battle techniques.) [Silent Destruction Fist (Great Sess)]: Price 50,000 origin values. [Wind Chasing Art (Perfect)]: Price 10,000 origin values. ...[Hint: Does the host wish to return the temporary talent Absolute Rationality to the talent pool?] Looking at the end of the simtion. Jiang Yifeng found it hard to snap back to reality. Too many things had happened in this simtion! However, he didn''t bother to summarize the events of this simtion. Instead, he immediately chose to return Absolute Rationality to the talent pool. This thing absolutely couldn''t be brought back to reality! [Ding, Absolute Rationality has been returned to the talent pool!] After doing everything. Jiang Yifeng''s eyes sparkled as he looked at the rewards from this simtion. There were so many rewards this time. He wanted them all! But unfortunately, he could only choose two. Jiang Yifeng began to analyze the pros and cons continuously. He felt that the Mortal Domain talent was a divine skill. With it, he would never be trapped by the formations of the Southern Regions again. It was definitely a must-have! As for the second choice, he was torn between Divine Dao Cultivation, Immortal-grade Alchemist, and War God Body (Small Sess Peak). After all, these had all taken a lot of time in the simtion. Especially the War God Body (Small Sess Peak), which had taken over a hundred years of battle to achieve. In the end, Jiang Yifeng leaned more towards Divine Dao Cultivation. And the reason?n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om It was the note that came with Divine Dao Cultivation. Choosing Divine Dao Cultivation would grant him a half-divine body that had crossed half the tribtion. Jiang Yifeng didn''t know what a half-divine body was. But he felt it should be rted to the fusion of spiritual energy and primordial energy in the simtion. He subconsciously felt this was very important. However, this choice also made him a bit worried. He feared that choosing Divine Dao Cultivation would directly bring about the tribtion for bing an immortal. After all, this was a cultivation level that had crossed half the tribtion. If he extracted it now and the tribtion for bing an immortal came immediately, it would be game over. So, he asked the simtor. "If I choose Divine Dao Cultivation, will it bring about the tribtion for bing an immortal?" [Ding, if the host is concerned, you can spend 100,000 origin values to cover all anomalies! Hehe...] As soon as he asked, the simtor''s electronic voice sounded. The voice even seemed to carry a hint of glee. Even Jiang Yifeng could tell something was off. He fell into silence. Was he that easy to fool? Was the simtor now tantly trying to scam him? In the end, Jiang Yifeng made his choice. "I choose Mortal Domain (Talent) and Divine Dao Cultivation." As for the simtor''s suggestion to cover anomalies? That was clearly a diversion, trying to scam his origin values. He wasn''t that stupid! He definitely wouldn''t spend that money in vain. [Ding, the host has chosen the talent "Mortal Domain," deducting 1000 origin values, remaining origin values.] [Ding, obtained Divine Dao Cultivation, deducting 100,000 origin values, remaining origin values.] After Jiang Yifeng made his choice, the simtor seemed to pause for a moment. Even the electronic voice made an error. Fortunately, it corrected itself in time. After the simtor''s prompt ended. Jiang Yifeng didn''t feel much about obtaining the talent. But when extracting Divine Dao Cultivation. He instantly felt changes happening within his body. His cultivation level was continuously rising. And the primordial energy and spiritual energy within him were constantly merging. A few minutester. Jiang Yifeng''s Martial Dao cultivation reached the peak of the Half-Saint Realm. His Immortal Dao cultivation reached the peak of Tribtion Crossing. And arge portion of the primordial energy and spiritual energy within him had transformed into golden chaotic energy. As for what this chaotic energy did. Jiang Yifeng couldn''t figure it out for the moment. He felt it needed further experimentation in the future. As for the so-called half-divine body. He couldn''t understand it either. At this moment, the simtor''s voice sounded again. [Ding, detecting the host''s ignorance, this simtor feels obliged to exin what a half-divine body is and what Divine Dao is.] [Half-divine body: To be precise, it is an Ancient God body cultivated halfway.] [And speaking of the Ancient God body, we must talk about Divine Dao.] [Although the host has been cultivating Divine Dao, it was only a superficial understanding.] [True Divine Dao requires theplete fusion of Martial Dao and Immortal Dao, transforming all primordial energy and spiritual energy into chaotic energy, and cultivating an Ancient God body to truly enter the path.] [Reminder to the host, true Divine Dao isparable to the ancient Demon Gods, hence extremely powerful.] [And the realms of Divine Dao only start to be defined after possessing an Ancient God body.] [Before this, all Divine Dao cultivators are considered unranked.] After listening to the simtor''s exnation, Jiang Yifeng instantly understood. No wonder Martial Dao and Immortal Dao had their realms, but the strongest Divine Dao did not. It turned out that his Divine Dao hadn''t even entered the path. But this also made him realize the power of Divine Dao. Even his unranked Divine Dao could reverse-y Earth Immortal experts in the simtion. So how strong would he be if he truly stepped into Divine Dao? Jiang Yifeng felt a bit impatient. At this moment, he didn''t care if the simtor had used him. Such a powerful Divine Dao, and the simtor just gave it to him. What more could he ask for? He now just wanted to say, "Simtor Daddy, give me more good stuff." When the timees, just say the word, and I''ll get it done! However, he was curious about how the realms of Divine Dao were divided. Such a powerful cultivation system must have some grand names for its realms. So Jiang Yifeng directly asked the simtor. [Detecting that the host is unaware of the Divine Dao divisions, the host is now provided with a Divine Dao realm chart.] [Divine Dao: One-star Ancient God, Two-star Ancient God... Nine-star Ancient God, Starry Sky Ancient God, Chaos God, Supreme God.] ... Alright! Jiang Yifeng felt he was too naive. The realm divisions of Divine Dao could only be described as simple and unadorned! After exchanging the rewards and understanding Divine Dao. Jiang Yifeng didn''t continue to banter with the simtor. He began to summarize this simtion! To facilitate future simtions! After all, although this simtion had many unexpected events, it also provided a lot of information. At the very least, Jiang Yifeng knew not to waste the resources of the Southern Regions unless absolutely necessary. Resources forprehendingws were even harder to find outside the Southern Regions. As for other things, Jiang Yifeng didn''t think much about them, like schemes and powerful beings. He didn''t care. After all, from this simtion, he had already seen. Even with Absolute Rationality, he had made so many ns and schemes. But the result? He yed himself to death! If he hadn''t nned so much. When Little Peach erupted, he could have simted for a bit longer. It could only be said that being too smart backfired. So, Jiang Yifeng felt it was better to just go with the flow! To hell with it! Whatever happens, happens. Chapter 148: Immortal Arrival Sect seeks alms, origin values soar Jiang Yifeng knew thatpletely taking it easy was impossible. Knowing there was danger, how could he return to his previous carefree life? He just felt that he could worry less in the future. In simtions, he needed to reduce exploration of information and focus more on enhancing his strength. After all, even with a lot of information, without strength, it would be hard to make a difference. This was the experience and growth Jiang Yifeng gained from multiple simtions! After figuring this out, Jiang Yifeng felt much more open-minded and his mood improved significantly! In the following days, Jiang Yifeng continued setting up ninth-grade defensive formations in the Jiang Family Mansion. He felt that although his current strength made him invincible in the Southern Regions, and he wasn''t worried about those Immortal ves seeing through him, the formations were still necessary. After all, better safe than sorry.With his improved strength, setting up the ninth-grade formations was much faster. It took Jiang Yifeng six days to finallyplete the ninth-grade defensive formation. Standing in the Jiang Family Mansion, looking at his masterpiece, he nodded in satisfaction. "This formation, even those at the Tribtion Crossing Realm can''t easily break through." "The Jiang Family Mansion is temporarily safe!" After that, Jiang Yifeng found his father and handed him the core of the formation. In fact, over the past few days, besides setting up the formation, he had also informed his father, Jiang Fushan, about cultivation. Using his consciousness, he transmitted the Immortal Dao inheritance he obtained in the simtion to Jiang Fushan. He even specially crafted a Breath Concealing Formation Disk for his father to carry. Yes, a Breath Concealing Formation Disk, not the Breath Concealing Talisman Bai Ruoxue had given him before. The Breath Concealing Formation Disk was like carrying a breath concealing formation on oneself, hiding one''s cultivation fluctuations. As for why he didn''t make a Breath Concealing Talisman but a formation disk instead? The reason was simple: he didn''t know how to make talismans. And the formation disk could also serve the purpose of a Breath Concealing Talisman. This way, his father could cultivate with peace of mind. As for why Jiang Yifeng wanted his father to cultivate? He wanted him to have some self-protection ability in reality. Jiang Yifeng felt that if he didn''t pass on the Immortal Dao inheritance to his father, his father might not live to see the real inheritance appear. After all, he was constantly simting. Each of his improvements could bring new changes to the world''s structure. So, he thought it was better for his father to start cultivating early. He also instructed Jiang Fushan to notify him when he was about to reach Core Formation. Jiang Yifeng was a bit worried that when his father broke through to Core Formation, it might cause a phenomenon and attract trouble! However, there was no rush. Jiang Yifeng felt that even if his father''s cultivation talent was amazing, it would still take some time to refine a Ten-Grade Golden Core and break through to the Core Formation stage. By then, he might not fear these problems anymore. After all, it had only been half a year since he got the simtor, and now he was already invincible in the Southern Regions. Who could say he wouldn''t be able to face the great powers of the Immortal Realm in a while? Of course, these were just Jiang Yifeng''s thoughts. Was he really invincible in the Southern Regions? Maybe!N?v(el)B\\jnn ... After handing the Jiang Family Mansion''s defensive formation disk to Jiang Fushan, Jiang Yifeng found Little Peach. Well... there wasn''t anything special. He just wanted to bond a bit. After all, since Jiang Yifeng learned from thest simtion that Little Peach could reach the Saint realm step by step, he had been visiting her every day to cultivate their rtionship. Jiang Yifeng insisted he wasn''t clinging to her for support; he just genuinely wanted to see Little Peach. This made Little Peach feel both ttered and surprised. In the blink of an eye, it was the seventh day, and the simtion count had refreshed. But this time, Jiang Yifeng didn''t start the simtion immediately. Because he was no longer in the Jiang Family Mansion. Yesterday, after bonding with Little Peach, he went out alone. His origin values were running low. He needed to "fundraise" a bit. He had already chosen his targets: several branches of the Immortal Arrival Sect. After all, he had memorized the entire map of the Southern Regions in the simtion. This "fundraising" trip went very smoothly. The Immortal Arrival Sect''s Immortal ves not only handed over the treasures from their vaults but also their personal collections and even their lives! Unfortunately, the simtor didn''t ept corpses, so he had to cremate all the Immortal ves and scatter their ashes. Jiang Yifeng felt he was truly a good person. When he returned to the Jiang Family Mansion, half a month had passed. As soon as he got back, he rushed to his room. Muttering to himself, "Oh no, I''mte, I''mte!" Yes, the simtor''s storage count was already full at three. Jiang Yifeng felt he was wasting his life. Every second he dyed starting the simtion meant the next refresh would be dyed by a second. "Bang!" Jiang Yifeng instantly closed the door and silently chanted. "Start simtion!" [Consumed one simtion count, remaining count: 2] [Drawing Purple Talent consumes 100 origin values, probabilistic drawing of Orange Talent consumes 1000 origin values, please choose!] "Choose probabilistic Orange Talent drawing." [Ding, 1000 origin values deducted, talent drawing in progress, remaining origin values...] Seeing the remaining origin values, Jiang Yifeng''s lips curled up slightly. "Thanks to the generous contributions of the Immortal Arrival Sect folks." Yes, he got all these origin values from the Immortal Arrival Sect. If Jiang Yifeng had robbed all the branches of the Immortal Arrival Sect, he would have gotten even more. Unfortunately, time was tight, and the simtion count was full. So, he only hit five branches. As for the rest, Jiang Yifeng thought he could get themter. While Jiang Yifeng was daydreaming, the simtor continued to disy. [Congrattions, Host, for obtaining Orange Talent: Inevitable Enlightenment] [Inevitable Enlightenment]: Every three years, you will inevitably gain an enlightenment opportunity. (Note: Enlightenment opportunities can be stored!) [Ding: Host has obtained a one-time talent: Time Reversal.] [Time Reversal]: You can choose a person or object to reverse its past. (Note: Can only be used once, and the target''s strength must be below the Saint realm.) Seeing the two talents he drew, Jiang Yifeng''s eyes lit up. Thinking to himself, "Not bad, not bad, both are good stuff!" As for how to use them? He would decide when the time came. The key was to adapt to the situation. He wasn''t nning to take Absolute Rationality this time, afraid it might y some tricks again. [Ding, does the Host want to carry talents from the talent pool?] [Talent Pool: Thunder and Fire Dual Spiritual Roots, Absolute Rationality!] "No, no, no!" Jiang Yifeng directly refused. After making his decision, the simtion officially began. [The 28th simtion begins!] Chapter 149: Investing all efforts in Little Peach, preparing to hug the thigh [You realize you have entered the simtion.] [On the first day, you immediately activated the Jiang Family Mansion''s defensive formation.] [After that, you began a killing spree in the Southern Regions, robbing members of the Immortal Arrival Sect everywhere.] [In the first year, you eradicated seventy percent of the Immortal Arrival Sect''s branches.] [At this time, the Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect were all in a state of panic, hiding in the branch within the Great Abyssal Kingdom.] [The puppet sect master of the Immortal Arrival Sect also ryed this news to Shen Wutian.] [However, there was no response for assistance.] [But in fact, you had no intention of attacking the Great Abyssal Kingdom''s branch of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [After all, your goal was just to rob some resources.][You felt there was no need topletely annihte the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [You were worried that if you wiped out the Immortal Arrival Sect, it might attract Shen Wutian, or perhaps some powerful beings from the Immortal Realm.] [This was good enough for now.] [The rest, you would deal with after you used up the resources you had robbed!] [In the second year, you handed over most of the resources for enhancing cultivation to Little Peach, urging her to speed up her training.] [After all, you were already at the peak of Tribtion Crossing, and you dared not easily attempt to ascend to immortality. These resources for enhancing cultivation were of no use to you.] [As for why you didn''t give them to your father, Jiang Fushan?] [That was because you knew that once your father crossed the tribtion to be an immortal, it would attract powerful beings to take action.] [Moreover, he could not leave the Southern Regions.] [But Little Peach was different.] [Although you were still not sure if she was the Lady in Red who had appeared in the Southern Regions before.] [But that didn''t matter. You couldpletely take Little Peach out of the Southern Regions and have her break through to the Immortal Realm outside.] [Although you were reluctant to admit it, your n this time was to rely on a powerful backer.] [You nned to give all the resources for enhancing cultivation to Little Peach, let her rapidly level up, and then protect you while you broke through!] [Little Peach took your resources and earnestly promised you that she would work hard.] [And you? After doing all this, you left the Jiang Family Mansion again.] [Heading towards the Desert of Death.] [Several dayster, you arrived at the Desert of Death.] [You did not hide your presence, and the Demonic Dragon sensed you, soaring out of the desert.] [You smiled slightly and approached the Demonic Dragon.] [Originally, you thought you could kill the Demonic Dragon with a wave of your hand.] [But you miscalcted.] [You did not have thebat power from theter stages of thest simtion. You did not have the War God Body, the Heavenly Profound Sword, or the perfected Silent Destruction Fist...] [You were just a novice in the Divine Dao, not yet fully initiated.] [It took you three punches to kill the Demonic Dragon!] In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this. He felt something was off. Killing a Demonic Dragon with three punches, how did the simtor describe him as a novice? That''s quite strong, isn''t it? But then, thinking about thebat power from theter stages of thest simtion. With the same cultivation level, he could y an Earth Immortal. Now it took three punches to kill a peak Tribtion Crossing Demonic Dragon, it did seem a bit weak. Forget it, let''s continue watching the simtion''s development! [You looked at the corpse of the Demonic Dragon and licked your lips!] [In the end, you resisted the temptation of the delicacy, dismembered it, and stored it in your storage ring.] [After that, you went to the dragon¡¯sir and looted all the items there.] [You also took the dragon egg.] [A monthter, you returned to the Jiang Family Mansion and threw the storage ring filled with Demonic Dragon meat to Little Peach.] [Then you left again.] [However, you took the dragon egg with you.] [You thought this dragon egg might be the key to copsing the Dragon Tomb, so you couldn''t eat it just yet.] [Who knows, you might need to go to the Dragon Tomb in the future?]N?v(el)B\\jnn [This time when you left, you originally nned to go to the Valley of mes to hunt the Demonic Phoenix to nourish Little Peach.] [But when you arrived at the Valley of mes.] [You had a different idea.] [You wondered if you couldprehend the Law of Fire from such arge fire?] [So, you used the Taotie Divine Body to directly devour a wisp of Phoenix me.] [To your surprise, you actuallyprehended a trace of the power ofws from it.] [However, there was something strange.] [Thew youprehended didn''t seem to be purely the Law of Fire.] [What could it be?] [You suddenly thought of the novels you read in your previous life.] [Phoenix Nirvana!] [Could it be the Law of Nirvana?] [Is there such aw?] [Or could it be the Law of Life?] [You seemed to sense a bit of life force from that trace ofw.] [You were a bit confused!] [But regardless of whatw it was.] [You thought it was best toprehend it first, it wouldn''t be a loss anyway.] [But should youprehend it like this?] [You looked into the void thoughtfully, as if asking someone whether to conduct a deep simtion?] In reality, Jiang Yifeng was helpless. The simtor was getting more and more mischievous. This sentence was obviously added by the simtor itself! However, whether to conduct a deep simtion was something he had just been considering. But in the end, he decided not to do a deep simtion. After all, long-term deep simtion was somewhat mentally exhausting for him. Moreover, even if the Phoenix me could helpprehend thew, the Demonic Phoenix itself was only at the peak of Tribtion Crossing. How muchw could its me helpprehend? It was hard to say if he could even get initiated. So Jiang Yifeng decided to save his limited energy for crucial moments. For example, whenprehending killing intent! Finally, Jiang Yifeng continued to look at the simtor. [You pondered for a moment and decided not to call your real self for a deep simtion.] [After all, it was still uncertain how muchw could beprehended from the Phoenix me.] [Moreover, you still had the talent for Inevitable Enlightenment.] [You thought it would be best to umte more time for Inevitable Enlightenment and then let your real self do a deep simtion.] [In the end, you left the Valley of mes.] [Since you weren''t doing a deep simtion, you thought there was no need toprehend thesews now as you couldn''t take them out.] [Why not leave them here for now, ande back toprehend them when you had umted more time for Inevitable Enlightenment.] [By then, it would surely be twice the result with half the effort.] [After you left, the Demonic Phoenix in the Valley of mes, which had been trembling with fear, let out a long sigh of relief.] [It was stronger than the Demonic Dragon, and it could sense that it was no match for you.] [It had been extremely frightened just now, worried that you woulde in and kill it.] [Now you were finally gone.] [After leaving the Valley of mes, you returned directly to Green Hills City.] [After that, you didn''t go out again.] [Instead, you began to practice the Silent Destruction Fist.] [You knew thatws and memories could be obtained through deep simtion, but battle techniques could not.] [Even if you knew the operation method of the battle technique after a deep simtion, without long-term practice, you couldn''t fully master it!] [So, this was something that couldn''t be obtained through deep simtion.] [And this was also your main focus.] ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª A simple exnation of the realms you might find confusing. Half-step Great Power is the Quasi-Saint realm. Great Power is the Saint realm. Chapter 150: Use the secret code to awaken Guo Qing In the blink of an eye, three months had passed. While you were practicing the Silent Destruction Fist in the Jiang Family Mansion, your brows suddenly furrowed. You muttered to yourself, "Still not giving up, huh?" Shaking your head, you soared into the sky, heading towards the Immortal Arrival Sect branch in the capital of the Great Abyssal Kingdom. When you arrived, you saw Shen Wuyou leading arge group of Immortal ves, attacking the formation you had previously set up. That''s right, although you hadn''tpletely annihted the Immortal Arrival Sect before, you hadn''t given them freedom either. You had trapped them all within the capital of the Great Abyssal Kingdom using a confinement formation. After all, you knew Shen Wuyou had a blood sacrifice method that could contact immortals from the Immortal Realm. If left unchecked, you feared it would bring you danger.But if you killed them all, you also worried that Shen Wutian and the powerful beings of the Immortal Realm would sense it! So, after robbing them, trapping them and not giving them the chance to kill civilians for blood sacrifices was the best choice. But you didn''t expect that they would still try to break out of the formation. This was simply intolerable. So, you spent half a year, under their watchful eyes, setting up dozens of ninth-grade confinement formations. Looking at your masterpiece, you were very satisfied. This should be secure now! You looked at the numerous Immortal ves, made an encouraging gesture, and smiled slightly, "Keep it up!" After saying that, you left gracefully! Leaving behind a group of Immortal ves, who were on the verge of tears! Previously, they had attacked the formation for almost a year before it showed signs of shaking! Now, you suddenly set up dozens more; how long would it take to break through them? The key issue was, no one knew if you woulde backter to add more confinement formations! After leaving the Immortal Arrival Sect branch, you calcted the time. It seemed Bai Ruoxue was about to arrive! So, instead of rushing back to Green Hills City, you headed to the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple in the Evergreen Mountain Range. After all, the Heavenly Profound Sword was still there! Although it would be iplete if taken out of the simtion! But in the simtion, it was still an excellent weapon to enhancebat power. Especially when fighting against people from the Immortal n. So, you thought it was best to get it. Although you didn''t n to cause trouble this time, it was better to be prepared! More than a monthter. Bai Ruoxue descended upon the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple. At this time, your cultivation was much higher than hers, and you hid in the shadows, so she didn''t notice your presence. Bai Ruoxue took out a jade token and waved her hand. The Heavenly Profound Temple slowly rose. Seeing this, your eyes lit up. This time, you didn''t bring Absolute Rationality and didn''t want to make a move against Bai Ruoxue! So, before she could react, you stepped out and rushed directly into the Heavenly Profound Temple. Then, you grabbed the Heavenly Profound Sword and ran. At this moment, the Sword Spirit Guo Qing within the Heavenly Profound Sword had not yet awakened. Although the sword resisted you somewhat, you could still control it and run away with it! Seeing this, Bai Ruoxue naturally chased after you. Unfortunately, she couldn''t catch up with you now! Although your body techniques weren''t top-notch, you had the Law of Wind to boost you, and your cultivation was higher than hers, so your speed was naturally faster. A few dayster, you returned to Green Hills City with the Heavenly Profound Sword. As for Bai Ruoxue? You didn''t know where she went. You could only be sure that a few days ago, you hadpletely shaken her off. Now, as long as you hid, it would be very difficult for her to find you again. Back at the Jiang Family Mansion, you began to try to awaken the Sword Spirit Guo Qing within the Heavenly Profound Sword. You knew that in thest simtion, Bai Ruoxue had used a secret phrase to awaken it! But what was the secret phrase? You didn''t know. But that didn''t matter; you had memorized everything Bai Ruoxue said in thest simtion. You would just try them one by one! So, you stood in front of the Heavenly Profound Sword and started talking to yourself. "Heavenly Profound, long time no see!" ... No response, so it wasn''t this phrase! "Stop trying to im the Heavenly Profound; it has its own consciousness and won''t easily recognize a master!" ... Not this one either! "Even an immortal can''t force the Heavenly Profound; otherwise, it would lead to the sword''s destruction and the person''s death!" This was thest phrase. In the simtion panel, you had only seen Bai Ruoxue say these three sentences. After saying it, you couldn''t help but feel a bit anxious. If this one didn''t work either, it would mean the secret phrase wasn''t shown on thest simtion panel. Or perhaps Bai Ruoxue had used another method to use the secret phrase, not spoken aloud. If that were the case, you wouldn''t be able to awaken the Sword Spirit Guo Qing. But it was clear you were overthinking it. As soon as the words "sword''s destruction and the person''s death" fell, a white light emerged from the Heavenly Profound Sword. Guo Qing''s shadow walked out from the sword. This time, since Bai Ruoxue wasn''t injured, Guo Qing''s shadow didn''t attack you upon appearing! He merely asked how you obtained the Heavenly Profound Sword. Of course, you wouldn''t answer honestly. Without blushing or panting, you said you had received the sword from a white-robed woman by chance. You said she wanted you to use this sword to y all the Immortal n. Guo Qing was skeptical of your words. But after probing your bone age and strength, he felt that as long as you were from the Nine Mystic Realm, nothing else mattered.N?v(el)B\\jnn At just 20 years old, you had already reached the peak of Tribtion Crossing and were a dual cultivator of Martial Dao and Divine Dao! With such talent, he believed you would undoubtedly be a key figure in the fight against the Immortal n in the future. So, he didn''t ask any more questions. You smoothly obtained the recognition of the Heavenly Profound Sword. This time, Guo Qing didn''t burn his soul, and after recognizing you as the master, he didn''t immediately fall into slumber! So, you asked him many questions about the Nine Mystic Realm, the Southern Regions, and the Immortal Realm. You felt that the information from his mouth should be quite reliable. After all, he was a senior who fought against the Immortal n even after death. He couldn''t possibly be someone from the Immortal Realm. So, he couldn''t deceive you. Hearing your questions, Guo Qing also fell into deep thought. After a long time, he began to speak slowly. Chapter 151: The Mystery of the Immortal Realm Invasion "He said, ''In this universe, besides the Immortal Realm and the Nine Mystic Realm, there used to be tens of thousands of other realms, big and small.''" "Millions of years ago, everyone coexisted peacefully." "Until eighty million years ago, the Immortal Realm suddenly went mad and started invading the Myriad Demon Realm." "At first, people from all realms didn''t take it seriously." "After all, the Myriad Demon Realm was inhabited by demons." "Everyone always thought they were different from them." "So no realm went to help." "Everyone watched from the sidelines." "As a result, in just a few million years, the Immortal Realmpletely destroyed the Myriad Demon Realm.""Even the dominant races of the Myriad Demon Realm, like the Dragon n, Phoenix n, White Tiger n, and Basalt n, were almost wiped out, with only a few escaping." At this point, Guo Qing sighed, "Sigh, it wasn''t until then that the strong ones from all realms realized the severity of the situation." "After destroying the Myriad Demon Realm, the Immortal Realm didn''t stop." "They became even more rampant." "They beganrge-scale invasions of other realms." "At first, many realms were still not rmed; our Nine Mystic Realm was the same." "After all, our strengths were about the same." "But no one knew that the strength of the Immortal Realm had already changed after destroying the Myriad Demon Realm!" Guo Qing paused, then continued, "Until thirty million years ago, the Immortal Realm finally set its sights on invading our Nine Mystic Realm." "It was then that we realized the Saint realm experts of the Immortal Realm had far surpassed ours." "But our Saint realm experts in the Nine Mystic Realm did not fear battle." "That battlested over ten million years." "Our Nine Mystic Realm suffered heavy casualties, the realm shattered, and several Saint realm experts died." At this point, Guo Qing''s voice became somewhat passionate, "But we did not lose!" "Ourpatriots continued to rush to the battlefield." Hearing this, you felt a surge of blood boiling within you for some reason. But Guo Qing''s voice then turned somber and sad, "I was one of them too!" "Unfortunately, my skills werecking, and I ended up with my physical body destroyed, leaving only a wisp of my primordial spirit to survive!" You could clearly hear the dejection in Guo Qing''s tone, as if he was ming himself for being useless. But your attention wasn''t on that right now. You felt something was off. Guo Qing had left many things unsaid. What he mentioned so far had little to do with the Southern Regions or you! Just as you were about to ask more, Guo Qing''s voice rang out again. He said, "Before I died, I heard from my master that a Saint realm expert had discovered the secret behind the Immortal Realm''s invasion of other realms." "Apparently, the people of the Immortal Realm had obtained a method to devour the Heavenly Dao from somewhere." "That''s why they started invading other realms; their goal was to devour the Heavenly Dao of other realms." "My master said that upon learning this, the Saint realm experts of the Nine Mystic Realm were immediately divided into factions!" "Some Saint realm experts believed that even if the realm was destroyed and the Heavenly Dao shattered, it wouldn''t affect them personally." "They proposed abandoning the fight against the Immortal Realm and instead invading other realms to seize their Heavenly Dao." "But some Saint realm experts believed that the Nine Mystic Realm, being their birthce, must be defended to the death against the Immortal Realm''s invasion." "The result was a bitter fallout." At this point, Guo Qing looked a bit dejected. But soon, he became somewhat agitated again. "The conflict among the Saint realm experts put our Nine Mystic Realm at a disadvantage." "At that time, we all thought the Nine Mystic Realm would follow in the footsteps of the Myriad Demon Realm." "But just then, a pair of peerless experts, a man and a woman, appeared." "They suppressed all the Saint realm experts with a wave of their hands." "And they dered that no Saint realm expert was allowed to participate in the battle!" "They made the Saint realm experts of our Nine Mystic Realm and the Immortal Realm sign some kind of agreement!" "After that, our Nine Mystic Realm got a chance to catch its breath." "But due to the fragmentation of the Heavenly Dao, our Chosen were far fewer than those of the Immortal Realm. Over time, even without the Saint realm experts fighting, we quickly fell behind again." "So my master set up a defensive formation in the Southern Regions to block the Immortals and allow the people here to recuperate, hoping to nurture new Chosen." "But this action seemed to break some agreement, and the Saint realm experts of the Immortal Realm soon arrived and took over the formation in the Southern Regions." "The protective formation in the Southern Regions became a sealing formation!" "After that, my master, for reasons unknown, used great power to carve out a corner of the Eastern Regions of the Nine Mystic Realm and retreated into seclusion!" "He wanted to take me with him at that time, but I refused and even left the sect because of it." "Looking back now, perhaps my master had already lost hope for the Nine Mystic Realm at that time!" Hearing this, you understood the reason behind the Immortal Realm''s invasion. You also understood why the Saint realm experts of the Immortal Realm didn''t take action. Because that man and woman had intervened. With such powerful beings who could suppress Saint realm experts speaking, the experts of the Immortal Realm dared not disobey. However, you thought these two were probably not from the Nine Mystic Realm; otherwise, with their ability to suppress Saint realm experts, they could have just killed all the Immortals. There wouldn''t have been any need for such roundabout measures. But what was their reason for doing this? Suddenly, you felt this might have something to do with you. No, that''s not right! Suddenly, you thought of Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya. They were from millions of years ago, and they also attracted the attention of the Saint realm experts from the Immortal Realm! So, to be precise, the restriction on Saint realm experts not taking action was in the Southern Regions? No, that''s still not right! During yourst simtion, when you crossed the tribtion to be an immortal, it also attracted the attention of Saint realm experts. So, was it a restriction specifically targeting people from the Southern Regions? But why didn''t anything happen when Little Peach crossed her tribtion to be an immortal? After pondering for a long time, you finally shook your head and stopped thinking about it.N?v(el)B\\jnn You felt that this restriction was definitely rted to the Southern Regions, but you couldn''t guess the specifics for now. Since you couldn''t figure it out, you thought you might as well ask. So you asked Guo Qing about Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya. But unfortunately, Guo Qing didn''t know them! He had died millions of years ago. At that time, Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya hadn''t been born yet! Then you remembered what Bai Moyu had said in a previous simtion, that Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya had received his sect''s inheritance. This inheritance was left by his disciple, so it should have been left by Guo Qing. You asked Guo Qing again if he had left any inheritance. Guo Qing was surprised to hear this. He didn''t know how you knew he had left an inheritance. But soon, he seemed to understand. After all, Bai Ruoxue had entrusted the Heavenly Profound Sword to you. He thought it was normal for you to know about the inheritance he left in the Southern Regions. Chapter 152: Relatives deep in memory Guo Qing nodded and said that he had indeed left many sect techniques and manuals across the Southern Regions as a legacy. Not only that, he also established a sect in the Southern Regions. However, ording to Guo Qing, all of this was arranged before his death. At that time, his master Bai Moyu was setting up the "sealing formation" in the Southern Regions to protect it. So, he also left behind many legacies, hoping that the Chosen of the Southern Regions could achieve great things after learning them. Unfortunately, when his physical body waspletely destroyed and only his broken primordial spirit escaped back to the Southern Regions, he found that everything had changed. The sealing formation had been taken by the Immortal Realm, and the Southern Regions were struck by a tribtion of Heavenly Thunder! Guo Qing said that he originally had a chance to rebuild his physical body. It was precisely that once-in-decades tribtion of Heavenly Thunder thatpletely obliterated his chance of rebirth.ording to Guo Qing, rebuilding the physical body is a time-consuming process. He couldn''tplete it in a short time. Although the Heavenly Thunder couldn''t directly annihte his Great Principal Golden Immortal level primordial spirit, it could destroy his newly formed body during the rebuilding process. After that, he felt his primordial spirit growing weaker and chose to merge it with his sword. From then on, he became the Sword Spirit of the Heavenly Profound Sword. You listened silently and nodded. Everything made sense now. You roughly summarized the timeline in your mind. It should have been eighty million years ago when the Immortal Realm obtained some secret technique that could devour the Heavenly Dao. After that, they began invading other realms like the Myriad Demon Realm. Thirty million years ago, the Immortal Realm invaded the Nine Mystic Realm. Saint realm experts participated in the battle, whichsted for millions of years with heavy losses. Then, about ten to twenty million years ago, the Saint realm experts of the Nine Mystic Realm discovered the secret of the Immortal Realm. This led to the Saint experts of the Nine Mystic Realm no longer fighting seriously. The Nine Mystic Realm fell into an absolute disadvantage. But at this time, a man and a woman, two powerful figures, intervened and stopped all Saint realm experts from participating in the battle! You think these two must have had some n or purpose. After these two intervened, the Saint realm experts no longer fought, leaving the battlefield to be dominated by Great Principal Golden Immortal level experts like Guo Qing. But the Nine Mystic Realm still couldn''tpete with the Immortal Realm. So, many people retreated to the Southern Regions. At this time, Bai Moyu set up the "sealing formation" to protect the Southern Regions.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om Guo Qing also left his legacies and sect in the Southern Regions at this time. After leaving his legacies, he went to the battlefield. When he returned defeated, the sealing formation had already been taken by the Immortal Realm experts, and the Southern Regions were struck by a tribtion of Heavenly Thunder. This tribtion prevented him from rebuilding his physical body, forcing him to be the Sword Spirit of the Heavenly Profound Sword. You roughly estimate that this happened millions of years ago. Everything seems reasonable now, after all, Bai Ruoxue had mentioned before that her senior brother was harmed by Heavenly Thunder. In a previous simtion, you discovered that Guo Qing was at the Great Principal Golden Immortal level, and thought that Bai Ruoxue''s memory might be faulty. After all, you knew that Bai Ruoxue''s memories were indeed sealed. But now it seems that Bai Ruoxue might have memories about Guo Qing. Although Guo Qing wasn''t killed by the Heavenly Thunder, he was affected by the tribtion in the Southern Regions, preventing him from rebuilding his physical body and reviving. In all this, there''s one thing you can''t quite understand! Why didn''t Bai Moyu help Guo Qing rebuild his physical body? Since Guo Qing, with only his primordial spirit left, was trying to rebuild his physical body to revive, then as a powerful expert, if Bai Moyu had helped, Guo Qing should have been able to survive! It seems there are some hidden truths even Guo Qing doesn''t know. Later, Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya obtained the legacies left by Guo Qing. With their unparalleled talents, they quickly ascended to immortality? Working together, they broke the sealing formation and left the Southern Regions. Suddenly, you think of a possibility. Were these two really just ascending to immortality? The information you previously obtained actually said that Mo Jingtian withstood the Heavenly Thunder and, together with Lu Wuya, broke the sealing formation. Could it be that you were assuming things before? Could a formation set by a Saint realm expert really be broken by someone who just ascended to immortality? At this moment, you suddenly feel that these two might be more than just at the Mortal Immortal realm. If that''s the case? Then perhaps there was never a rule in the Southern Regions that one couldn''t ascend to immortality. This rule might only apply to you, your father; and possibly the Lady in Red whom you suspect might be Little Peach! No, maybe it''s not Little Peach. In thest simtion, she ascended to immortality. Previously, you thought it was because she left the Southern Regions. But you also left the Southern Regions, yet you were still found. You furrow your brows, suddenly realizing that your previous assumptions might be wrong. Little Peach is special, but she might not be the Lady in Red. The Lady in Red could be someone else! Suddenly, a bold ideaes to your mind. What if the Lady in Red is not Little Peach, but someone rted to you by blood? If so, does that mean the rule only targets you and your family? If this is true, it seems to make sense. After all, who is more special in the Southern Regions than you? Who canpare to you, someone with a simtor? Targeting only you and your family seems particrly reasonable. And in a previous simtion when the Demonic Dragon ascended to immortality, although an expert from the Immortal Realm appeared. But don''t forget, your father Jiang Fushan also ascended with the Demonic Dragon. So, during that simtion, that powerful expert might not havee for the Demonic Dragon, but for your father Jiang Fushan. The more you think about it, the more likely it seems! But besides your father, do you have any other blood rtives alive? You constantly recall past memories. Youe to a conclusion, yes! And not just one. They are your mother and sister. But when you were very young, they left the Jiang Family Mansion. In fact, if not for suspecting that the Lady in Red might be rted to your direct rtives. If you didn''t deliberately recall, you might not even remember that you have a mother and sister. After all, not to mention that you are a transmigrator who has been in this world for only five years and have never seen them. Even in the original host''s memory, their figures are already blurred. In reality, Jiang Yifeng frowned slightly as he read this. Do I still have a mother and sister? He kept recalling the original host''s memories in his mind. After a long time. A picture gradually formed in his mind. He saw the blurry figure of a woman in purple. The woman in purple was holding a baby girl in her arms. With tears in her eyes, she gently touched a baby boy, then left the Jiang Family Mansion without looking back. Chapter 153: Find help to locate someone "Is it really true?" Jiang Yifeng was stunned. How old was he in this memory? Based on the scenes he just recalled. He was that baby boy. No wonder he had no impression of his mother and sister before. If he hadn''t achieved sess in cultivation and deliberately tried to remember. Who could recall memories from infancy? After transmigrating, Jiang Yifeng always thought the original host''s mother was dead.So, he never mentioned her. Of course, one could also say he simply didn''t care. After all, he was just a transmigrator. His feelings for his father, Jiang Fushan, were built over the five years since he transmigrated. As for a mother he had never met, there was naturally no need to inquire. Jiang Yifeng kept this matter in mind and didn''t dwell on it further. Instead, he continued to look at the simtor. [Although your impressions of your mother and sister are already blurred.] [But you think that since the matter might involve them.] [You need to inquire about their whereabouts.] [Even if you can''t find them, you need to verify if Little Peach is the Lady in Red.] [As for how to verify, it''s actually quite simple!] [Just pay more attention to the happenings in the Southern Regions after leaving.] [In previous simtions, either you didn''t live to the year the Lady in Red ascended.] [Or you didn''t pay attention to the Southern Regions after leaving.] [This time, you n to keep a close eye on it.] [If Little Peach follows you out of the Southern Regions, and by the year 139, no one in the Southern Regions undergoes tribtion to be immortal, then the Lady in Red is undoubtedly Little Peach.] [If there are changes in the Southern Regions that year, then Little Peach is not the Lady in Red.] [Of course, the premise is that you prevent your father, Jiang Fushan, from undergoing tribtion to be immortal.] [After making this decision, you stopped thinking about it.] [Guo Qing, after telling you what he knew, returned to the Heavenly Profound Sword.] [Although he didn''t burn his Primordial Spirit this time, as a Sword Spirit, staying away from the sword for long would still affect his Primordial Spirit.] [Afterwards, you found your father and inquired about your mother and sister.] [Your father, Jiang Fushan, teared up instantly upon hearing your question!] [He seemed to age several years in an instant.] [After a long while, he slowly said, "I couldn''t find them!"] [Then, your father, Jiang Fushan, said a lot.] [He said your mother left very suddenly.] [He didn''t know the reason either.] [All these years, he has been reflecting on whether he didn''t do well enough!] [Besides reflecting, your father, Jiang Fushan, has never stopped searching for them all these years.] [He said that when you were still young, he had already searched the entire Great Abyssal Kingdom.] [Just to find your mother and sister.] [But it was all in vain, as if they had vanished into thin air,pletely untraceable.] [Your father expanded the Jiang n Firm to such arge scale, reaching surrounding countries.] [Actually, a big part of the reason was to use the firm''s power to search for your mother and sister in other countries.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [Hearing this, you suddenly felt that your father''s indulgence towards you might partly be due to his guilt towards your mother and sister?] [Perhaps it really is!] [However, you think your father has a really good temperament.] [He doesn''t even know the reason for your mother''s departure, yet he already mes himself.] [You patted your father, Jiang Fushan, on the shoulder and said, "We will find them!"] [Afterforting your father, Jiang Fushan, you took a portrait of a woman in purple and a baby from his hand.] [This is your mother, Su Mushuang, and your sister, Jiang Ruxuan.] [You memorized their names, took their portraits, and left.] [Afterwards, you soared into the sky, leaving Green Hills City, heading straight for Spine Mountain.] [To find someone, you naturally need help.] [The best choice is the Immortal Arrival Sect, but they are enemies and unreliable.] [So, you settled for the next best thing and sought help from the cultivators of Spine Mountain.] [After all, the Southern Regions are vast, and using mortals to search would be extremely difficult.] [But if arge number of cultivators search, the chances of finding them would be much higher.] [Moreover, with most of the Immortal Arrival Sect members trapped by you, as long as you persuade the people of Spine Mountain, they can search the Southern Regions freely.] [After arriving at Spine Mountain, it didn''t take much effort to persuade them to help.] [After all, the cultivators of Spine Mountain are not isted from the world.] [They have heard about your raids on the Immortal Arrival Sect and trapping their Immortal ves.] [Many in Spine Mountain even idolize you now!] [Of course, the real reason they agreed to help is that they fear angering you.] [You dared to massacre and imprison the Immortal Arrival Sect members.] [They, being weaker, cannot afford to provoke you!] [You are unaware of their thoughts.] [Even if you knew, you wouldn''t care.] [As long as they help search, that''s enough.] [After that, you returned to the Jiang Family Mansion.] [After all, your ultimate goal is still to improve yourself.] [You have no intention of wasting your cultivation time to search personally.] [Back at the Jiang Family Mansion, you continued to practice the Silent Destruction Fist.] [In the blink of an eye, it was the third year of the simtion.] [Your Silent Destruction Fist showed some progress.] [That year, your father, Jiang Fushan, found you.] [He informed you that he was about to break through to the Core Formation stage!] [At that moment, you remembered that when you taught your father cultivation, you had instructed him to inform you before breaking through to the Core Formation stage.] [However, that was because you were worried about real-world issues.] [Now, in the simtion, with the Immortal Arrival Sect members trapped, there is nothing to worry about.] [So, you told your father, Jiang Fushan, to go ahead and break through.] [You only reminded him to notify you when he was about to break through to the immortal realm.] [A few dayster, you saw anomalies in the sky.] [You knew it was your father, Jiang Fushan, beginning his breakthrough to the Core Formation stage.] [Watching the Core Formation phenomenon, you couldn''t help but marvel at your father''s talent.] [In just three years, he reached the Ten-Grade Golden Core stage.] [And this was without using any cultivation resources!] [This breakthrough did not attract the Immortal Arrival Sect''s Immortal ves, as they were still imprisoned by you.] [But arge number of Spine Mountain cultivators came.] [Upon seeing you and knowing Jiang Fushan was your father, they gave up any idea of recruiting him into Spine Mountain.] [In the fourth year, Little Peach sessfully broke through to the Core Formation stage.] Chapter 154: Go to the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords [In this simtion, Little Peach''s speed in breaking through to Core Formation was much faster thanst time.] [But thinking about it, it''s quite normal.] [After all, you gave all the resources for cultivation to Little Peach this time.] [You even hunted a peak Tribtion Crossing Demonic Dragon for her cultivation.] [However, with Little Peach''s current cultivation level, she can''t use such high-level resources yet.] [Otherwise, she would have improved even faster!] [In the fifth year, you focused on cultivating the Silent Destruction Fist.] [...] [In the tenth year, you left Green Hills City and visited the Immortal Arrival Sect''s branch in the capital of the Great Abyssal Kingdom.][You reinforced the formations for the Immortal ves there!] [In the twelfth year, you felt that the Immortal Dao inheritance was about to appear.] [You prepared yourself carefully. Previously, your cultivation wasn''t high enough to sense the inheritance''s appearance.] [But now, you feel you might be able to explore the origins of this inheritance!] [After all, in previous simtions, the Immortal Dao inheritance appeared quite abruptly.] [Moreover, there was consciousness within that inheritance.] [If you can figure out the origin of this inheritance, you might uncover the secrets surrounding your father, Jiang Fushan.] [In the thirteenth year, you watched your father Jiang Fushan cultivating and sighed, "I was careless!"] [Your year-long preparation was in vain; the Immortal Dao inheritance didn''te to find your father, nor did it find you!] [You understand that this is likely because both you and your father have already started cultivating.] [But this inheritance is too intelligent!] [What is going on here?] [You have some guesses in your mind.] [But you can''t verify them now, so you don''t delve deeper.] [You believe that one day, the truth wille to light.] [After that, you went into seclusion again, focusing entirely on cultivating the Silent Destruction Fist.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [In the twentieth year, cultivators from Spine Mountain brought news that they had found someone resembling your mother.] [Upon hearing this, your father was so emotional that he burst into tears.] [You and your father Jiang Fushan followed the cultivators from Spine Mountain to verify the truth.] [When you arrived at the destination, you saw a woman in purple and a girl in green, but you couldn''t tell if they were real.] [However, your father shook his head from a distance, looking somewhat dejected.] [You instantly understood that these two were not your mother and sister.] [You and your father had been happy for nothing.] [In the blink of an eye, decades passed.] [In the thirty-third year, Little Peach''s cultivation reached the fifthyer of Tribtion Crossing!] [And your father Jiang Fushan broke through to the ninth level of Tribtion Crossing.] [Their cultivation speed made you feel a bit ashamed.] [You have to know, your father didn''t use any cultivation resources!] [Upon learning this, you hurried to find your father, urging him to stop cultivating. If he broke through to immortality, it would be extremely dangerous.] [Your father nodded and agreed, trusting your words even though he didn''t understand the danger.] [In the same year, you took your father Jiang Fushan and Little Peach and left the Jiang Family Mansion.] [You arrived at Spine Mountain.] [Although you couldn''t let your father break through to immortality, you wanted him to live a few more years.] [So, you decided to repair the formations left by Lu Wuya.] [Because of this simtion, you were already famous in the Southern Regions.] [Everyone at Spine Mountain knew you, so the proposal to repair the formations left by Senior Lu Wuya was quickly approved.] [That day, you led arge group of cultivators into the formation, starting to consume the Heavenly Thunder beneath Spine Mountain.] [After setting up several inverted Thunder Conduction Formations, you looked up at the sky, pondering whether to call for help.] [But you shook your head and abandoned the idea.] [After all, previous simtions had indicated that the Taotie Divine Body seemed to have ws.] [Previously, using it to devour the underground Heavenly Thunder and elevate the Thunder Daows to a minor achievement was already the limit.] [You felt that now was not the best time for a deep simtion.] [Another ten years passed in the blink of an eye.] [In the forty-third year, this time, the formation left by Lu Wuya did not copse because of your collective effort in consuming the underground Heavenly Thunder.] [You sensed the state of the formation and felt that it could withstand one or two more tribtions of Heavenly Thunder without any problem.] [And during this year, Little Peach also reached the peak of Tribtion Crossing.] [She could break through to immortality at any moment.] [You knew you couldn''t stay in the Southern Regions any longer.] [You had to take Little Peach somewhere else to break through.] [After all, you still weren''t sure if Little Peach was truly not the Lady in Red.] [And you weren''t sure if everyone in the Southern Regions was unable to break through to immortality.] [You didn''t want to take the risk; you wanted Little Peach to quickly reach the Saint realm and then cover for your breakthrough.] [So, you took Little Peach and left Spine Mountain.] [You headed west.] [Your destination was the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [This time, you wanted to see if you could leave through the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [After all, if you didn''t wander around there, there were no human disasters, only a sea of killing intent.] [If you could leave through the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords, not only could Little Peach break through there,] [But you could also start a deep simtion there toprehend the true meaning of the Killing Dao.] [Upon arriving at the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords, you directly activated the Mortal Domain.] [You wanted to use it to erase the killing intent within.] [Very quickly, you were disappointed.] [Your Mortal Domain was ineffective against the killing intent in the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [Seeing the Mortal Domain fail, you were momentarily at a loss.] [But soon, you understood that the true meaning of the Killing Dao is an extremely specialw, not exclusive to cultivators.] [Mortals can also possess extreme killing intent.] [Since the Mortal Domain was ineffective against this dense killing intent,] [Should you still leave the Southern Regions through the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords?] [You couldn''t make up your mind for a while.] [Actually, you were confident in passing through the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [After all, you had alreadyprehended the true meaning of the Killing Dao to a great extent before, and you were just a step away from passing through the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [And after thest simtion ended, your cultivation had made significant progress.] [This time, your cultivation was even higher, and you felt you could make up for theckingprehension of killing intent.] [Your only concern was whether you could take Little Peach with you out of the Southern Regions.] [But, while you were hesitating, Little Peach had already walked into the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [Although she didn''t know why you came here, she could see that you wanted to enter this sea of killing intent but were worried about her.] [She didn''t want to be a burden to you, so she decided to step into the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords before you.] [After realizing this, you didn''t stop her but followed closely behind.] [You also thought it through; there were no other dangers here, so it wouldn''t hurt to try.] [If something went wrong, you could always take Little Peach and retreat in time.] Chapter 155: The Grief of the White Tiger, the Intent to Kill is Complete [One step, two steps, three steps, Little Peach walked steadily, seemingly unaffected by the killing intent.] [Two dayster, the two of you passed through the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords and exited the Southern Regions.] [At this moment, you were drenched in sweat, your eyes asionally shing red.] [Clearly, your previous self-assessment was off; you were somewhat overconfident.] [Although you made it through the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords, you were still affected.] [Fortunately, the impact wasn''t too severe, and your self-awareness remained intact.] [On the contrary, Little Peach, whom you had been worried about, seemedpletely unaffected.] [The killing intent didn''t invade her at all.] [But now, you had no time to ponder these things.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om[You were still desperately suppressing the killing intent within you.] [Several monthster.] [You finally recovered.] [You and Little Peach found a rtively safe ce to continue your cultivation.] [In the forty-fourth year, Little Peach crossed her tribtion and became an immortal.] [During her tribtion, aside from some disturbances in the sea of killing intent, nothing unusual happened, and there were no idents.] [In the forty-fifth year, Little Peach continued her closed-door cultivation, while you continued to practice the Silent Destruction Fist.] [In the fiftieth year, you encountered a killing intent hurricane.] [However, with your current strength, it didn''t pose any threat to you.] [In the sixtieth year, your Silent Destruction Fist finally reached the peak of minor achievement.] [You couldn''t help but sigh; this fist technique was incredibly difficult!] [It took you a full sixty years to make this small improvement.] [But fortunately, you had now reached the peak of minor achievement and could see the threshold of major achievement.] [You felt that perhaps it wouldn''t be long before you achieved major sess.] [But how long is "not long"?] [In the blink of an eye, twenty years passed.] [In the eightieth year, you turned 100 years old and triggered the talent "Late Bloomer," gaining a buff to your cultivation speed.] [This year, your Silent Destruction Fist finally reached the major achievement stage.] [The power of the Silent Destruction Fist at major achievement was significantly different from before.] [Now, every time you used the Silent Destruction Fist, its power increased by dozens of times.] [Moreover, it seemed to contain a sense of universal annihtion.] [This sense of annihtion not only increased damage but also affected a person''s will.] [You even felt a mysterious sensation within the Silent Destruction Fist.] [That sensation was like... you couldn''t find the right words to describe it for a moment.] [After thinking for a long time, you decided that the word "time" was the most urate description.] [You felt that if you mastered the Silent Destruction Fist to the extreme, you might be able to cultivate the power of time from it.] [However, you knew that mastering it to the extreme wouldn''t be a short-term endeavor.] [Now that the Silent Destruction Fist had reached major achievement, you knew it was time.] [So you looked up at the sky...] In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this and understood. After some calctions, he silently muttered to himself. "Activate deep simtion for thirty years!" [Ding, activating deep simtion for thirty years, deducting origin values, remaining origin values.] Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness instantly entered the simtion. Upon entering, he first found Little Peach. He gave her a few instructions, telling her to wait for him there. Then, without hesitation, Jiang Yifeng headed southward. Although there was killing intent here, the sea of killing intent was more terrifying than the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords in the Southern Regions. So Jiang Yifeng decided to return to the Southern Regions to enhance otherws first. As for Little Peach? Jiang Yifeng wasn''t worried. Although the simtor hadn''t shown what realm Little Peach had reached, he believed that after so many years, Little Peach had likely reached the Earth Immortal realm. Even if she stayed here, there wouldn''t be any danger. As for why he didn''t take Little Peach back to the Southern Regions with him? Naturally, he didn''t want to take any risks. He was worried about unforeseen changes. After all, the Southern Regions posed no danger to Jiang Yifeng now. There was no need to bring Little Peach to protect himself. A few dayster, Jiang Yifeng returned to the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords. Upon his return, he appeared in the central area of the forest. Instantly, Jiang Yifeng was invaded by killing intent. He could have quickly retreated, and if he had, he could have resisted it. But he didn''t do that. Instead, he stood in the central area of the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords, facing the killing intent head-on. Not only that, but as he gritted his teeth and persevered, he also activated the talent "Inevitable Enlightenment!" After activating this talent. Gradually, Jiang Yifeng seemed to see the scenes of his previous deaths in the simtion, one after another. Despair and anger surged from the depths of his heart. His eyes turned blood-red, and he shouted, "Kill!" All these emotionsbined, transforming into pure killing intent. But it didn''t end there. Jiang Yifeng''s rebellious emotions and pure killing intent seemed to resonate with the killing intent in the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords. The killing intent in the forest howled. Jiang Yifeng seemed to hear an ancient war song. He seemed to see countless White Tigers being ughtered by powerful beings descending from the sky. The White Tiger n was unwilling; they were angry. Even though they knew they were no match, they still pointed their swords at the sky, charging forward without hesitation! But the absolute power disparity only led to the tragedy of the White Tigers. Blood, the blood of countless White Tigers, kept falling. Eventually, this blood transformed into pure killing intent, condensing into the shape of a tiger. ... In the blink of an eye, twenty years passed. Jiang Yifeng slowly woke up. At this moment, he saw that there was no longer any killing intent in the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords. The White Tiger corpses that had been in the forest had also turned into a mist of blood. But Jiang Yifeng wasn''t surprised. Because during his enlightenment of the killing intent. He had learned the truth. The White Tigers were killing intent bodies formed from the blood of the White Tiger n. They were thest hope and legacy of the White Tiger n. They were thebination of the White Tiger n''s obsession, killing intent, and flesh. Jiang Yifeng thought that when he was trapped here and reincarnated as Wu Youdao, the White Tiger corpses should have disappeared. After all, based on Jiang Yifeng''s understanding, Wu Youdao might be the obsession of the White Tiger n. With the reincarnation of their obsession, how could the condensed White Tiger bodies persist? The only exnation might be that the White Tiger n''s obsession was too strong; even reincarnation couldn''tpletely erase it. And now that the killing intent in the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords had disappeared, the remaining obsession had also been exhausted. So the White Tiger corpses hadpletely be a thing of the past! Without further thought. Jiang Yifeng sensed and used the killing intent he now controlled. Soon after, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. "Perfected Killing Intent!" Now he could control the killing intent as easily as moving his arm. This was a sign of perfect mastery of the True Meaning of the Killing Dao, and also the mark of a perfected realm. The speed of this improvement surprised even Jiang Yifeng. Twenty years, and he had improved so much? He had directly jumped from major achievement in killing intent to the perfected realm, skipping the peak of major achievement. However, he also knew that there were many reasons for this. There was the buff from the "Late Bloomer" talent, the buff from "Inevitable Enlightenment," and the scenes of the White Tiger n in the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords. All these factors contributed to his significant improvement. Chapter 156: It was just to keep you from worrying Jiang Yifeng''s killing intent had greatly increased, but in doing so, he had exhausted the Inevitable Enlightenment he had stored for over a hundred years. At this moment, he had only ten years of deep simtion time left. After pondering for a moment, he headed towards the Valley of mes. He didn''t want to waste the deep simtion time. So, heading to the Valley of mes toprehend the Phoenix mes there seemed like a good choice. Upon arriving at the Valley of mes, Jiang Yifeng directly used the Taotie Divine Body to start devouring the Phoenix mes, attempting toprehend the power ofws within. As for the Demonic Phoenix? It could only curl up in the Valley of mes, not daring to move, not daring to move! In the blink of an eye, ten years passed. [Ding, deep simtion ended!]Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness returned to reality. At this moment, he was still reminiscing about the insights he gained in the Valley of mes. He felt as though he had grasped something, but it was always just out of reach. That''s right, Jiang Yifeng hadn''t directlyprehended the power ofws in the Valley of mes. He felt that thews of the Valley of mes were harder toprehend than killing intent, even harder than the Way of Thunder. It seemed to be a higher-level power ofws. Now, he was hesitating whether to continue with another deep simtion. In the end, he shook his head and murmured softly, "Forget it, I''ll wait until I''ve umted more Inevitable Enlightenment before doing another deep simtion!" With the previous insights fromprehending killing intent, he clearly knew how much of a buff Inevitable Enlightenment provided for understanding the power ofws. Directly trying toprehend it now wouldn''t be as effective as umting more talent usage and then having a breakthrough all at once. After making his decision, Jiang Yifeng continued to look at the simtor. [You notice yourself amidst the zing mes in the Valley of mes.] [You realize that the deep simtion has ended.] [You choose to leave the Valley of mes first!] [After that, you start checking your storage ring.] [You want to see if the deep simtion left you any clues.] [You grumble a bit in your heart, feeling annoyed that the deep simtion doesn''t leave you with memories of that time.] [After a long while, you find a note.] ["30 years have passed, in one more year, the Lady in Red will undergo Tribtion Crossing to be immortal!"] [You raise an eyebrow, having found the answer you wanted.] [You think to yourself, "In one more year, I''ll know if Little Peach is the Lady in Red."] [You remember that the Lady in Red underwent Tribtion Crossing to be immortal in the 131st year.] [If in the 131st year, someone in the Southern Regions undergoes Tribtion Crossing to be immortal, attracting the intervention of powerful beings, then it can be confirmed that Little Peach is not the Lady in Red!] [After that, you don''t leave the Southern Regions immediately.] [Instead, you head towards Spine Mountain.] [You want to see if the people of Spine Mountain are doing well.] [Of course, what you most want to know is whether your father has found your mother and sister!] [You think that even though you''ve been gone for so long, the people of Spine Mountain might not have continued searching.] [But after the Heavenly Thunder, your father must have searched.] [A few dayster, you arrive at Spine Mountain.] [After inquiring with your father, you get the same answer: no.] [You feel neither joy nor sorrow upon hearing this answer.] [After all, this was the answer you expected.] [If it were that easy to find, they would have found them long ago.] [You stop thinking about these matters.] [After that, you stay at Spine Mountain for a few days.] [During these days, you keep hesitating whether to tell the people here that they can now leave the Southern Regions through the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [After all, if the Lady in Red is not Little Peach, then staying in the Southern Regions means certain death for these people.] [But then you think, if you tell them they can leave through the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords, how will you exin it to your father, Jiang Fushan?] [You know that your father, Jiang Fushan, cannot leave the Southern Regions.] [If he leaves the Southern Regions, he will disappear.] [You can''t let others leave while leaving your father alone in the Southern Regions!] [In the end, you silently chant in your heart, "This is a simtion, this is a simtion!"] [You give up on reminding the people of Spine Mountain that they can leave the Southern Regions through the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [But will things really go as you nned?] [No, just two dayster, a cultivator from Spine Mountain excitedly returns.] [He tells Old Li that the killing intent in the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords ispletely gone.] [He excitedly asks Old Li if they can leave the Southern Regions through there.] [A few dayster, Old Li personally investigates the situation in the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords and informs everyone that they can leave the Southern Regions through there.] [Seeing this situation, you can''t help butugh bitterly.] [Man proposes, but heaven disposes.] [The matter you didn''t n to mention was discovered by the cultivators of Spine Mountain.] [Of course, you also understand that it might not have been unintentional.] [After all, the ces where the sealing formation can be exited are not secrets to the cultivators of Spine Mountain.] [They have always been unable to leave because theycked the strength.] [Perhaps these people check the changes in those exit points every few years!] [A few dayster, everyone from Spine Mountain arrives at the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [Seeing the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords devoid of any killing intent, they cry tears of joy.] [Only you, with aplicated expression, look at your father, Jiang Fushan.] [You don''t know how to tell your father that he can''t leave the Southern Regions.] [You know that if your father stays in the Southern Regions, and a yearter, if the Lady in Red is not Little Peach, he might also be doomed.] [But no matter what you say, there is still a chance of survival.] [There is a gamble, what if the Lady in Red is Little Peach?] [But if your father tries to leave the Southern Regions, he will disappear immediately.] [After a long while, your father seems to notice your concern and pats your shoulder.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [Though he says nothing, you understand that he means: Don''t worry, he''s here!] [In the end, you take your father, Jiang Fushan, aside and exin the situation directly.] [You tell your father that he cannot leave the Southern Regions, and if he does, he will disappear immediately.] [Worried that your father might not believe you, you even prepare to mention the simtor.] [But at that moment, you suddenly feel a sense of foreboding!] ["Don''t say it!"] [You feel that if you mention the simtor, something terrifying will happen!] [In the end, you can''t exin how you know this.] [But fortunately, your father, Jiang Fushan, doesn''t ask for the reason.] [He just falls silent.] [After a long while, Jiang Fushan smiles at you and says, "It''s alright, I just won''t leave!"] [Not long after, the people of Spine Mountain gradually leave the Southern Regions through the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [Only you and your father remain standing there.] [After bidding farewell to your father, you also leave through the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.] [But just as you pass through the sealing formation and leave the Southern Regions.] [Your father, Jiang Fushan, slowly walks towards the sealing formation.] [You have no idea how many things your father thought about after you told him he couldn''t leave the Southern Regions!] [He believes you wouldn''t lie, so why can''t he leave the Southern Regions?] [He thinks there might be some secret about himself.] [Perhaps it has something to do with your mother leaving him.] [He has already decided in his heart to explore this secret.] [He feels that you are now capable and no longer need his care.] [So what is there to fear?] [As for promising you he wouldn''t leave the Southern Regions, it was just to keep you from worrying.] Chapter 157: Woman in purple [After you left the Southern Regions from the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords, you didn''t go far.] [You still wanted to see the situation in the Southern Regions a yearter.] [You settled down a few hundred kilometers away from the sealing formation.] [But you didn''t know that at this moment, within the Southern Regions, your father Jiang Fushan was embracing a woman in purple, his face full of tears.] [Just now, as he approached the sealing formation, preparing to leave the Southern Regions.] [He suddenly heard the voice of your mother, Su Mushuang, in his ear.] [Then, he disappeared from where he stood and appeared in an inconspicuous small vige.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this and eximed, "WTF!" It turned out that the reason his father Jiang Fushan couldn''t leave the Southern Regions was rted to his mother, whom he had never met.Jiang Yifeng wasn''t foolish. Previously, he thought his father had died after leaving the Southern Regions and disappearing. But now it seemed he was just passively teleported away. And now he appeared where his mother was. He couldn''t believe it had nothing to do with his mother. However, Jiang Yifeng didn''t guess the reason this time. After all, he knew too little about his mother. He felt that in future simtions, finding his mysterious mother without hindering his strength improvement had be quite important. [In the 131st year, you waited outside the sealing formation for a whole year.] [One day, you suddenly saw a giant figure appear in the sky above the Southern Regions.] [You didn''t dare to use the Eye of Insight to check, fearing he would notice you.] ["Boom!" A giant foot descended towards the Southern Regions.] [Even outside the Southern Regions, you felt a significant disturbance.] [Thend of the Southern Regions shattered instantly, turning into countless fragments drifting away with the Endless Sea.] [In the void, the giant seemed to be holding a few figures in his hand.] [Your gaze seemed to catch his attention.] [He scanned in your direction.] [A sudden sense of foreboding surged in your heart.] [You were extremely flustered, knowing this was a premonition of death!] [You keptining in your heart: No way! No way! Can''t even watch the excitement?] [But soon, that sense of foreboding disappeared.] [Because the figures in the giant''s hand started to resist.] [A woman in purple instantly erupted with the power of a Saint realm.] [The giant had not noticed that among the people he captured, there was someone stronger than him.] [The woman in purple had been feigning weakness!] [Her sudden outburst severely injured the giant.] [She didn''t linger in battle, nced in your direction, and then disappeared with the other two.] [The giant, though gravely injured, didn''t bother with you anymore but quickly started summoningpanions to chase the woman in purple.] [Witnessing all this, you were shocked.] [You never expected that there was someone in the Southern Regions who could contend with a Saint.] [Scared to death!] But in reality, Jiang Yifeng had different thoughts. A woman in purple? The simtion just showed that his mother seemed to be wearing purple. And she even looked at him in the end! Could it be as he guessed? Was this woman in purple his mother? Jiang Yifeng thought this possibility was quite high. Especially since the simtion mentioned two other people besides the woman in purple.N?v(el)B\\jnn Could they be his father and sister? However, Jiang Yifeng was a bit confused. If that strong person was his mother, taking his father and sister to escape, it seemed unreasonable to leave him behind. Was he adopted? Jiang Yifeng was speechless. Without overthinking, he continued to look at the simtion panel. [After witnessing the battle of Saints and learning about the situation in the Southern Regions.] [You understood that Little Peach was not the Lady in Red.] [Having obtained the answer, you didn''t waste any more time.] [Instead, you found Little Peach and began secluded cultivation.] [After all, strength is the foundation of everything.] [Little Peach had broken through to the Heaven Immortal realm after years of cultivation.] [But she was still far from the Saint realm.] [So, you didn''t dare to advance your cultivation level.] [You could only continue to practice battle techniques.] [Thus, you continued to practice the Silent Destruction Fist.] [Your goal was to perfect it, even reaching its peak!] [In the 140th year, you made some progress in your diligent cultivation.] [In the 150th year, Little Peach broke through to the True Immortal realm!] [In the 170th year, the Sea of Killing Intent erupted.] [Your secluded cultivation ce with Little Peach was affected.] [Although it couldn''t directly harm you, it was impossible to cultivate in peace.] [So, you chose to leave and find a quieter ce to cultivate.] [On the way, you encountered cultivators from Spine Mountain who had escaped from the Southern Regions.] [They were fleeing from the Sea of Killing Intent''s invasion.] [At this time, you saw that their numbers had more than halved since they left the Southern Regions.] [You didn''t ask why.] [After all, you were well aware of the dangers here.] [Every so often, a gale of killing intent would sweep through.] [Those with weak minds and insufficient cultivation were easily eroded by the killing intent.] [The result of being eroded, although not fatal, was likely madness.] [In the end, they could only be killed by theirpanions.] [However, overall, these people were lucky.] [After all,ing here gave them a chance to survive.] [If they had stayed in the Southern Regions, they would have perished with thend when the giant struck decades ago!] [You didn''t ignore them.] [Instead, you took them along.] [As long as you didn''t directly rush into the Sea of Killing Intent, the killing intent here didn''t affect you much.] [Especially with Little Peach, a True Immortal.] [Protecting these people to a ce far from the killing intent wasn''t too difficult.] [In half a year, under Little Peach''s protection, your group sessfully passed by the Sea of Killing Intent.] [You werepletely away from the killing intent.] [However, after leaving the dense forest filled with killing intent, you were greeted by a thick stench of blood.] [You looked at the ck and rednd.] [Suddenly, you felt that the forest filled with gales of killing intent and the Sea of Killing Intent was like a paradisepared to this ce.] Chapter 158: The supreme law, the Law of Time! [Of course, if it were just blood-stainednd and the smell of blood, you wouldn''t have felt this way.] [The key is that on that ck and rednd, white bones are scattered everywhere.] [You even saw mountains of bones piled up from corpses.] [All of this seems to tell a story: this is hell on earth.] [Because of this, the impact of the scene.] [Made you feel that the previous forest filled with killing intent was like a paradise.] [In fact, you know that if nothing special had happened, the forest would have been more dangerous!] [After all, this ce only looks terrifying, but there are no signs of human life or any sense of danger.] [In the 172nd year, you found a rtively "elegant" environment and established a ce for secluded cultivation.][Those who came from the Southern Regions did not leave but settled around you.] [After so many years of experiences, they also understood the dangers outside.] [They didn''t dare to venture out on their own.] [It was safer to stay with you and Little Peach!] [The days that followed werepletely peaceful.] [Little Peach worked hard to improve her cultivation, and you diligently practiced the Silent Destruction Fist.] [In the blink of an eye, hundreds of years passed in cultivation.] [In the 300th year, you finally reached the peak of the Silent Destruction Fist.] [It''s worth mentioning that this fist technique is of a higher level than you imagined.] [If you had followed the standard training, you wouldn''t have been able to break through so quickly.] [But over the past hundred years, not only did you have the Buff of the Late Bloomer talent, but you also used Inevitable Enlightenment while practicing the Silent Destruction Fist.] [This allowed you to make rapid progress.] [As for why you didn''t save Inevitable Enlightenment for deep simtion,] [It was because the Southern Regions had been destroyed, and you didn''t know where to find a ce to sense thews.] [Of course, you couldprehend killing intent in the Sea of Killing Intent in the previous forest.] [Unfortunately, with your current strength, you could barelyprehend it.] [But the danger was still high, and it would take a long time to further enhance your killing intent.] [So, you ultimately decided to use Inevitable Enlightenment for the Silent Destruction Fist!] [The peak realm of the Silent Destruction Fist is truly extraordinary.] [Because you genuinely felt the power of time from it.] [Using it seemed to elerate the passage of time, causing the target to age rapidly and be annihted!] [Moreover, when the peak realm of the Silent Destruction Fist isbined with killing intent, the power of time bes even more violent, as if it could destroy everything.] [If you had to describe this power in one word, it would be "cmity"; the cmity of all things!] [You feel that this might be the origin of the name Silent Destruction Fist.] [With one punch, everything is annihted; this is the cmity of all things!] [Of course, you can''t achieve this yet.] [You can feel that although your Silent Destruction Fist has reached the peak realm,] [This is not the limit.] [Perhaps when you fullyprehend the power of time within the Silent Destruction Fist, you will truly achieve perfection.] [But even if you haven''t reached perfection,] [Just the peak realm of the Silent Destruction Fist has brought a qualitative change to yourbat power.] [You clearly understand that this is a supreme technique!] [You even start to doubt the origins of the War God Art and the Silent Destruction Fist.] [Are they really owned by the White Tiger n?] [With such powerful techniques, how could they be easily exterminated?] [Of course, you also know that perhaps your knowledge is limited, and you''re overthinking it.] [After all, you don''t know the specifics of the strength above the Immortal realm, especially the Saint realm.] [Maybe at higher levels, these techniques are not so outstanding?] [With your breakthrough in strength, you didn''t continue to stay in seclusion.] [Instead, you chose to rx a bit.] [After all, years of cultivation taught you that blindly training doesn''t elerate progress.] [Properly bncing work and rest can yield better results!] [Walking out of your secluded ce,] [You discovered that not far from your seclusion spot, a small market had formed!] [After inquiring, you learned that it was established by the cultivators from Spine Mountain.] [These people, knowing the dangers outside, didn''t dare to stray far from your seclusion spot with Little Peach.] [So, they started to settle nearby.] [After one or two hundred years,] [Some of them started families and had children!] [This allowed the originally dwindling poption to thrive again.] [And it developed into what it is now.] [Watching the children ying on the streets, you felt a sudden realization.] [When you first arrived here, this ce was a blood-soaked cknd.] [But now, it is full of vitality and human activity.] [In that moment, you had an epiphany!] [Without triggering your talent, you fell into enlightenment.] [A power of time appeared on your body.] [This power of time had been slightlyprehended when you reached the peak of the Silent Destruction Fist.] [But you had been unable to grasp it.] [Yet now, it spontaneously emerged from your body.] [You murmured to yourself, "Time, years, annihtion?"] ["No, this is not the end."] ["After annihtiones rebirth!"] [As you continued toprehend,] [Your appearance began to change continuously.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [Gradually, you aged from a youth to middle-aged, then to old age!] [And just as your face was full of wrinkles and your hair turned white, your appearance slowly became younger again.] [Finally, you returned to your original form.] [You understood, youprehended a trace of the supremew, the Law of Time!] [At that moment, your Silent Destruction Fist instantly reached perfection.] [You also fully understood that your previous belief that the Silent Destruction Fist was the cmity of all things was both right and wrong!] [After a great cmity, there must be rebirth, so the Silent Destruction Fist should epass both destruction and rebirth!] [Two monthster, you slowly woke up.] [By then, a crowd had already gathered around you.] [These were the cultivators from Spine Mountain who knew you.] [Although they didn''t know what had happened to you,] [They instinctively guarded you.] [Seeing this, you felt a warmth in your heart!] [Even though you knew it was just a simtion, it felt good to be cared for.] [Of course, you also knew that they were afraid something might happen to you, and with their limited strength, they worried about facing danger without anyone to protect them.] [But, so what?] [At least at this moment, they were genuinely guarding you!] [In that instant, your State of Mind improved.] Chapter 159: Staring across time and space [After that, you had several small gatherings with your acquaintances from Spine Mountain.] [You enjoyed a period of leisure andfort.] [Until three monthster, you returned to your previous secluded cultivation spot.] [But this time, you weren''t there to cultivate.] [Instead, you nned to use your one-time talent, "Time Reversal!"] [During this period, you''ve been pondering when would be the best time to use this talent?] [After much thought, you realized the timing didn''t really matter.] [The key was what you used it on!] [In this simtion, your subsequent ns were all about cultivation, with no intention of exploring.][So, there was no need to hold onto this talent.] [After all, without exploration, there would be no new items or people appearing.] [But now, among the items you possess or the people around you, who is worth using Time Reversal on?] [Your mind kept reying various scenarios.] [You came up with a few choices.] [The first was Little Peach!] [In thest simtion, she suddenly erupted with the power of the Saint realm, which was definitely not a talent.] [It could only mean she had an extraordinary background, possibly even a reincarnation of some powerful being!] [But would Time Reversal work on Little Peach?] [After all, she had once disyed the power of the Saint realm, and this talent was said to be ineffective against Saint realm entities.] [You were somewhat uncertain.] [The second choice was the War God Art.] [Although you obtained it from Wu Youdao and it was likely a secret manual of the White Tiger n, you always felt something was off about it!] [The third choice was the Demonic Dragon Egg you acquired from the Desert of Death!] [You hadn''t consumed this egg, and it was still in your storage ring.] [You thought that examining this Demonic Dragon Egg might reveal some secrets.] [The fourth choice was the Heavenly Profound Sword and Sword Spirit Guo Qing.] [Although you believed Guo Qing could be trusted.] [People''s hearts are unpredictable, and you weren''t sure if your judgment was correct. You could use Time Reversal to look into Guo Qing and the Heavenly Profound Sword''s past!] [To determine the truth of his words!] [Besides these, the thing you most wanted to reverse was the history of the Nine Mystic Realm.] [But you felt that was definitely beyond the scope of Time Reversal.] [After all, Time Reversal clearly stated it couldn''t reverse anything rted to Saint realm entities or items.] [The Nine Mystic Realm wasn''t a Saint realm entity, but it had the Heavenly Dao, which certainly counted as above the Saint realm.] [Even though the Heavenly Dao was now shattered, you felt it wasn''t much weaker than the Saint realm.] [Otherwise, it would have been devoured by those Saint realm powerhouses from the Immortal Realm long ago.] [After much deliberation.] [You directly activated the one-time talent "Time Reversal!"] [However, the target you chose wasn''t any of the ones you had previously considered!] [Because you suddenly thought of another target worth reversing.] [That target was yourself!]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [You felt that many things seemed to be rted to you.] [You wanted to see if there was anything unusual about yourself that you hadn''t noticed!] [A smart choice!] [Unfortunately, you saw nothing!] [Just a void.] [The good news was that your one-time talent hadn''t been consumed.] [When you found you couldn''t use Time Reversal to look into your own past, you fell into deep thought!] [You felt that having no abnormalities was the biggest abnormality!] [If you were truly an ordinary person, you should have been able to reverse your experiences from birth to now, right?] [But there was nothing!] [This was very unusual.] [You began to have doubts about your own origins.] [Of course, you were also somewhat uncertain.] [You also suspected that it might be because you were a transmigrator, and since you weren''t from this world, you couldn''t reverse your past.] [It could also be because of the simtor, preventing the reversal.] [But no matter what, the seed of doubt had already been nted in your heart!] [Since you couldn''t use this talent to reverse yourself.] [After a moment of thought, you headed to Little Peach''s secluded cultivation spot.] [You wanted to use Time Reversal on Little Peach.] [As for the reason? It was simple.] [You thought that the items you wanted to reverse might more or less be connected to other Saint realm powerhouses.] [If the reversal failed, it would be fine!] [But if it seeded, you worried it might bring danger to yourself.] [After all, you weren''t sure if Saint realm powerhouses had any special senses!] [Little Peach was different. Based on the previous simtion, even if Little Peach reached the Saint realm, she was harmless to you.] [So reversing her, whether sessful or not, wouldn''t pose much danger.] [As for not choosing to reverse those items and instead reversing those absolutely safe?] [That wouldn''t reveal the deeper secrets you wanted to know!] [Then what would be the point of the Time Reversal talent?] [As soon as you arrived at Little Peach''s secluded cultivation spot, she noticed you.] [This was within your expectations.] [Little Peach was now a Mystic Immortal realm powerhouse, so it was naturally impossible for you to hide from her and perform Time Reversal on her!] [So, you told a well-intentioned lie!] [You told her that you hadprehended an ability that could see into other people''s pasts, and you wanted to test it on her.] [Actually, it wasn''t really a lie.] [You just concealed the simtor and the talent!] [Upon hearing this, Little Peach agreed without a second thought.] [She was even somewhat excited, curious about what this ability you mentioned was.] [Seeing this, you didn''t hesitate and directly used the talent, Time Reversal, on Little Peach!] [The moment you used this talent.] [Scenes began to appear above Little Peach''s head.] [Did it work? You were overjoyed!] [But soon, you noticed something was off.] [Weren''t these scenes all of the times Little Peach spent with you?] [Could it be that Little Peach had no other background and was just naturally talented?] [Suppressing your doubts, you continued to watch the scenes floating above Little Peach''s head.] [At this moment, Little Peach noticed you staring at her head in a daze and was puzzled.] [Because she couldn''t see the scenes you were seeing.] [Time passed slowly.] [Suddenly, you noticed the scenes above Little Peach''s head began to flicker and speed up.] [Then the scenes turned red.] [You saw a woman in armor, continuously killing.] [After killing several people, the woman looked around in confusion.] [Finally, you saw her turn around.] [You saw her face, and it was Little Peach.] [At this moment, her eyes moved slightly, looking ahead.] [It seemed like she was looking at someone!] [Suddenly, your heart skipped a beat.] [You thought, "No way? Is it an illusion?"] [You felt that her gaze seemed to be looking at you through time and space!] [At that moment, you saw her lips move slightly.] [Although you couldn''t hear the sound, you could tell from the lip movement that she was saying, "Young Master, keep going!"] [Your heart raced, was she really looking at you?] [But at that moment, you saw Little Peach in the scene smile sweetly, and then the scene ended, leaving only a blood-red void.] Chapter 160: Better than giving up? [The blood-red scene paused for a few seconds, then quickly flickered and turned into nothingness.] [There were no more images above Little Peach''s head!] [Seeing this, you kept shouting in your heart, "Hey, hey, hey, what''s going on? Is it just gone like that?"] [Although you were startled when Little Peach in the image stared at you just now.] [But you know that if you could continue to see more images, you might uncover Little Peach''s secrets.] [You might even learn the secrets about yourself.] [But now you can''t see anything, which leaves you a bit disappointed.] [You can''t help it, and in the end, you can only sigh: Ah!] [However, although it seems you didn''t see much from using the Time Reversal talent this time.][In fact, the amount of information you gained is not small!] [First, Little Peach indeed has an extraordinary identity.] [You think the person in the image is Little Peach''s past life!] [Second, from the words Little Peach mouthed, "Young Master, keep going!", you think you must have had a past life identity too!] [And you believe your past life''s identity and strength were not weak.] [You might even have been Little Peach''s Young Master!] [Otherwise, why would a strong person of that level call you, an ant, Young Master?] [But you can''t quite figure it out.] [If your guess is correct, why is your talent in this life worse than Little Peach''s?] [Why is your cultivation speed so much slower than hers?] [This is worth pondering!] [Third, and what you think is the most important point right now.] [The abilities of peerless experts are terrifying.] [Little Peach in her past life could see you across time and space.] [So, can other experts do the same?] [After thinking for a moment, you believe this should be considered in reality.] [In the simtion, you should just focus on exploring and improving your strength.] [Since you''re here, you might as well make the best of it; thinking too much is useless.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this and was a bit speechless. What does this mean? Is it telling him to do nothing? Forget it, no point in arguing with a tool. Jiang Yifeng fell into deep thought. He was thinking, what level of strength and cultivation did Little Peach in her past life have to see him across time and space? Was she really just at the Saint realm that she erupted into in thest simtion? If Little Peach''s past life was really just a Saint realm expert. Then Jiang Yifeng thought he should be more cautious in the future. He couldn''t casually investigate matters rted to Saint realm experts. After all, those great beings in the Immortal Realm seemed to all be at the Saint realm. Even if these Saint realm experts weren''t specifically paying attention to him. If he investigated Saint realm matters, it was very likely he would be sensed by them! Jiang Yifeng kept this in mind. Constantly reminding himself not to easily investigate Saint realm matters in the future. Of course, besides this, what he was most curious about now was his own identity. From the recent simtion, it seemed he had some remarkable identity. But why didn''t he have any impression of it? Jiang Yifeng was a bit puzzled. Wasn''t he just an ordinary transmigrator? Could it be that he had a past life before transmigrating? If that were true? Then why didn''t his past self leave any trump cards for his future self? Thinking about Little Peach, she had an extremely high cultivation talent and her cultivation speed far surpassed ordinary people. She could even enter Berserk Mode at critical moments and directly ascend to the Saint realm. Then as her Young Master, why did he have nothing? Jiang Yifeng sighed lightly. Suddenly, he thought of something! He murmured to himself. "Could it be?" "Is it possible that it is the trump card left by my past life?" Jiang Yifeng was a bit uncertain. Although he hoped this guess was correct. But if it were correct? Then his previous suspicions about it made him look like a fool! That''s right, Jiang Yifeng thought of the simtor. He thought, if in one of his past lives, he was really a strong person and Little Peach''s Young Master. Since the maid was so powerful, shouldn''t the Young Master be even stronger? Then he should have left some trump cards behind! But thinking back on everything. Jiang Yifeng didn''t feel like he had any signs of having left behind trump cards. Even his cultivation talent came from the simtor. If he was an unparalleled expert in one of his past lives. Either he died too miserably and had no time to prepare any trump cards. Or the simtor was the trump card he left for himself. Besides this, he couldn''t think of any other exnation. "Ah!" In the end, Jiang Yifeng sighed and stopped guessing. He didn''t want to guess anymore. He would just watch bit by bit in the simtion! When his strength was enough, he should be able to understand! So he continued to watch the developments in the simtor. [After using the Time Reversal talent on Little Peach.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [You didn''t stay long, chatted with her briefly, and then left alone.] [You didn''t know that after you left.] [A trace of abnormality appeared in Little Peach''s expression.] ["Past life Little Peach" was a Saint realm or even higher expert, and you used Time Reversal on her.] [How could it not affect the current Little Peach?] [However, this influence has both good and bad aspects.] [The good thing is, Little Peach''s cultivation speed has increased.] [But the bad thing is, her upper limit has been fixed.] [The current Little Peach and the "past life Little Peach" met in a roundabout way.] [Little Peach was influenced by her "past life", and is destined never to surpass her!] [You are unaware of this, and even Little Peach herself doesn''t know.] [Of course, even if you knew, you might not think it''s a problem!] [After all, having a fixed upper limit at the Saint realm, or even above, is still impressive.] [After leaving Little Peach''s retreat, you felt a bit aimless for a while.] [You didn''t know what to continue cultivating.] [After all, ording to your thinking.] [You can only take two rewards out of the simtion when it ends.] [This talent is excellent and will definitely take one spot.] [So you focused on practicing the Silent Destruction Fist before.] [This way, when the simtion ends, besides taking the talent, you can choose a well-improved battle technique.] [Although you think that if your cultivation can break through smoothly, you would definitely prioritize cultivation.] [But practicing the Silent Destruction Fist is also a backup n.] [Now that the Silent Destruction Fist has been perfected.] [It''s hard to improve further.] [For a while, you found yourself in a dilemma.] [After all, practicing anything else wouldn''t be taken out of the simtion and wouldn''t help in reality.] [Break through to be an immortal? You want to wait a bit longer.] [You experienced the danger of breaking through in thest simtion.] [Without the strength to resist Saint realm experts, you would surely die!] [You still need to wait for Little Peach to break through.] [After all, she reached the Saint realm in thest simtion, even if it was through Berserk Mode.] [So, you never doubted that Little Peach would reach the Saint realm!] [Now, all that''s missing is a bit of time.] [Of course, if ites to a desperate situation, you would choose to forcefully break through.] [To see if you can exploit a bug and bring your cultivation back to reality!] [But obviously, now is not the time.] Chapter 161: Silent Destruction Fist Displays Its Power [In the end, you chose to continue cultivating the Silent Destruction Fist.] [Although you have already cultivated it to the peak level.] [Theoretically, it cannot be improved any further.] [But you believe that with your talent and the principle of "Heaven Rewards Diligence," persistent cultivation might break this theory.] [In the 350th year, while you were in seclusion, you suddenly heard a loud noise from the outside world.] [You frowned slightly and exited seclusion to investigate.] [After stepping out, you discovered that the cultivators of Spine Mountain had already gathered at the entrance of your retreat.] [Upon inquiry, you learned that.] [It turned out that anomalies had appeared in the outside world more than a decade ago.][ording to these people, it often rained blood from the sky!] [They couldn''t find the cause.] [They were afraid but didn''t dare to disturb your seclusion; so, they all gathered at the entrance of your retreat.] [Upon hearing this, a bad premonition arose in your heart.] [Could it be that the war between the Immortal Realm and the Nine Mystic Realm has reached here?] [You knew that there was indeed a war going on.] [However, the battlefield was not fixed like in the Great Wilderness.] [Just as this thought crossed your mind.] [You heard a "bang," the ground shook, and a figure fell from the sky.] [Itnded hundreds of miles away from your residence.] [For a cultivator of your level, this distance was no different from being right beside you.] [You looked over and saw that the figure was a familiar face; Wu Youdao!] [At this moment, more than a dozen figures appeared in the sky again!] [As soon as they appeared, they attacked Wu Youdao.] [Although Wu Youdao had been attacked and fell from the sky, he had not lost his ability to resist.] [He quickly rose into the air and fought with those people!] [You frowned slightly as you watched.] [You didn''t rush to rescue him immediately.] [Instead, you used the Eye of Insight to investigate the information of this group of people.] [After reading it, you understood.] [You concluded that you could intervene.] [These dozen or so people were all from the Immortal n, and they were all in the Mortal Immortal realm.] [Although you didn''t cultivate the War God Body in this simtion, you had cultivated the Silent Destruction Fist to the peak level.] [You believed that even if yourbat power was weaker than in thest simtion, it wouldn''t be much weaker.] [A dozen Mortal Immortal realm cultivators should be manageable.] [Although you thought this in your heart.] [You still sent a message to Little Peach before taking action.] [Better safe than sorry.] [It''s more secure to notify Little Peach.] [After all, she is now the real powerhouse, having reached the Mystic Immortal Realm decades ago.] [She must be even stronger now!] [After making your decision.] [You directly soared into the sky and charged towards the dozen or so Immortal n members!] [This time, you didn''t summon the "Heavenly Profound" sword!] [Although it has a critical hit effect on the Immortal n.] [You wanted to test the power of the peak-level Silent Destruction Fist.] [Although you had tested it before, it was always against the sky, the ground, and nts.] [You hadn''t tested its realbat effectiveness.] [These people were just right for practice!] [In an instant, you reached the group of Immortal n members.] [But they didn''t pay much attention to you.] [After all, in their eyes, you were just a cultivator at the peak of Tribtion Crossing.] [Charging over was just courting death.] [Wu Youdao was also stunned when he saw your face.] [Although he had sensed your presence and that of the people of Spine Mountain before.] [He hadn''t observed carefully.] [So, he didn''t recognize you.] [But now, he recognized you.] [He didn''t know how you came from Green Hills City in the Southern Regions to the outside world.] [But no matter what, he had taught you the first part of the War God Art''s unnamed manual.] [You could be considered half his disciple; he didn''t want you to die.] [In his eyes, although you had reached such a realm in just a few hundred years, you were a genius.] [But genius couldn''tpare to absolute strength.] [It''s too difficult to fight immortals as a mortal.] [He also thought you were no match for this group of Immortal n members.] [So, Wu Youdao shouted at you, "Run!"] [Then, his aura surged, blocking two of the Immortal n members who were about to attack you.] [Seeing this, you smiled slightly.] [As expected, Wu Youdao was still the same Wu Youdao from the simtion.] [Loyal and righteous!] [Run? Of course, you wouldn''t run.] [You looked at those Immortal n members, and your aura changed instantly.] [The killing intent emanated from your body.] [Then, without hesitation, you used the Primordial Energy in your body to execute the Silent Destruction Fist and charged at the Immortal n members.] [Those Immortal n members didn''t feel much about your change.] [After all, they didn''t know the power of the Silent Destruction Fist.] [But Wu Youdao, sensing your aura, showed a look of surprise.] [He had also cultivated the War God Art and the Silent Destruction Fist.] [He naturally knew the power of the peak-level Silent Destruction Fist.] [He had also cultivated the Silent Destruction Fist to the great achievement level.] [If he hadn''t been injured earlier, he could have killed these dozen or so Mortal Immortal realm Immortal n members by himself!] [Although he didn''t know how you obtained these techniques.] [He knew he wouldn''t have to die!] [It seemed like a long time, but all this happened in an instant.] [At this moment, you had already reached the dozen or so Mortal Immortal realm Immortal n members.] [You threw a punch, and a thick aura of destruction emanated from your fist.] [The Immortal n member who was hit was instantly severely injured and spat blood.] [But that wasn''t the end.] [The power of time in your Silent Destruction Fist continued to erode the Immortal n member.] [His injuries worsened continuously.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [Wrinkles began to appear on his face, and his hair gradually turned white.] [Looking at this situation, even if you didn''t strike again, if he wasn''t treated immediately, he obviously wouldn''t survive.] [But you didn''t want to wait for him to die naturally.] ["Bang"¡ªyou threw another punch, sending him on his way.] [Only then did the other Immortal n members realize they had underestimated you.] [After killing one Mortal Immortal realm Immortal n member.] [You frowned slightly, feeling a bit displeased.] [You didn''t expect that even with the full power of the Silent Destruction Fist, you couldn''t kill him instantly.] Chapter 162: Origin of War God Art "One punch didn''t take them down? Then two punches, no big deal!" "In an instant, all ten-plus Mortal Immortal experts from the Immortal n were killed by you!" "Looking at their corpses, you sighed inwardly: What a satisfying battle, I almost broke a sweat!" "I have to admit, you''re getting a bit cocky." "But to be able to so easily y more than ten Mortal Immortal experts with your Tribtion Crossing Realm perfection, you truly are a Chosen." "With everything over, Wu Youdao stood not far away, looking at you with some emotion." "He couldn''t believe that in just over three hundred years, you had transformed from a yboy into such a formidable Chosen." "He even suspected that you, like him, might be a reincarnated and re-cultivated individual." "However, he only thought about it and didn''t dare to ask further.""After all, you''re now stronger than him, and this involves your secrets!" "What he didn''t know was that even if he asked, you wouldn''t be able to exin it clearly." "Wu Youdao was too embarrassed to inquire about your secrets, but you were different." "You directly asked him a question that had been bothering you for a long time." "You asked him, ''Is the War God Art from your White Tiger n?''" "You had previously nned to use Time Reversal to investigate this question." "Now that Wu Youdao was in front of you, you didn''t hold back and asked directly." "Your question stunned Wu Youdao." "His mind was now full of questions." "How did you know he was from the White Tiger n?" "How did you know that the War God Art was not originally their n''s technique?" "You should know, this secret was unknown to many within the White Tiger n before their extinction!" "If he wasn''t the reincarnation of the collective will of many White Tigers, with memories of almost all his kin, he wouldn''t have known that the War God Art wasn''t originally theirs." "Looking at the shocked Wu Youdao, you just smiled at him." "You could guess some of Wu Youdao''s thoughts at this moment." "After all, in this simtion, you hadn''t interacted with him at all." "Your connection with him was still in reality, where you obtained the first part of the War God Art from him." "Now you directly revealed that he was a reincarnated White Tiger and even mentioned the War God Art." "It would be strange if Wu Youdao wasn''t overthinking things!" "You knew that asking so directly would be abrupt." "But what did it matter?" "As long as you got the answer, that was enough." "As for the rest, let Wu Youdao fill in the gaps himself!" "After all, you didn''t n to exin." "I have to say, you''ve grown!" "Sometimes the simplest approach is the most effective." "Wu Youdao felt uneasy under your gaze." "After a long internal struggle," "Wu Youdao told you that the War God Art was indeed not originally from his White Tiger n." "It was given to them by a supreme being billions of years ago!" "In fact, the main reason Wu Youdao told you this secret was that you also knew the War God Art." "He wondered if you might be a disciple of that supreme being." "Otherwise, how could you know he was from the White Tiger n and that the War God Art might not have originally belonged to them?" "Let''s just say, Wu Youdao was good at filling in the nks!" "Upon hearing this answer, you felt enlightened." "Sure enough, your initial guess was correct." "The War God Art was indeed overpowered." "Not to mention anything else, you had only cultivated one set of battle techniques from the War God Art and could easily defeat Mortal Immortals." "If you mastered all three sets of battle techniques, how powerful would you be?" "You thought that crossing several realms to kill enemies shouldn''t be difficult!" "Therefore, you always felt that such a powerful War God Art must have been created by an incredibly strong individual." "As for how strong the peak of the White Tiger n was, you weren''t sure." "But being easily exterminated by the Immortal Realm made them seem a bit weak." "So, you were always doubtful whether the War God Art was created by the White Tiger n." "Now, hearing Wu Youdao''s admission, your doubts were finally resolved." "You felt a sense of relief!" "Yes, just a bit of relief." "As for any other use, there didn''t seem to be any." "Because ording to Wu Youdao, he didn''t know who that supreme being was either." "After that, you asked Wu Youdao some other questions."n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om "For example, how he ended up here, why he was fighting with the Immortal n, and so on." "Wu Youdao answered each question." "You learned that the Immortal n had started a massive sweep of the Western Regions again." "Most of the remaining Nine Mystic Realm cultivators here were being hunted by the Immortal n." "Wu Youdao was one of those being hunted by the Immortal n." "ording to Wu Youdao, there were initially two Earth Immortal experts among those hunting him." "He fought desperately to kill those two, which left him severely injured, and he was eventually pursued by a group of Mortal Immortal experts from the Immortal n." "As he spoke, Wu Youdao gritted his teeth." "Clearly, he felt that almost dying at the hands of Mortal Immortal experts was a humiliation!" "After hearing all this, you frowned slightly." "It seemed troublesome." "If the Immortal n was sweeping the Western Regions," "Then your ce of refuge wouldn''t be safe for long either." "Thinking of this, you felt it was time to prepare early." "You absolutely couldn''t let those from the Immortal n disturb Little Peach''s cultivation breakthrough." "After that, you had Wu Youdao settle down here to heal." "As for Little Peach, you told her to continue her secluded cultivation." "Previously, you had been worried about fighting the Immortal n and had sent a message to Little Peach, so she hade out of seclusion." "She had been listening to your conversation with Wu Youdao just now." "Now you told her to go back into seclusion." "She was worried about your safety and didn''t want to." "But after a private conversation with you, she looked at you in shock and agreed to your n!" "In the days that followed, your ce seemed to fall into peace again." "The only change was that you became busier." "You were constantly going out to hunt and stockpile food." "Your actions puzzled everyone else!" "Logically, as a cultivator like you, you should have already achieved inedia." "You couldpletely go without eating or drinking." "What was the point of stockpiling food?" "Although they didn''t understand, they believed that since you were stronger, there must be a reason for your actions." "So, others started to follow your lead." "For a while, everyone here began to frantically stockpile food." "Seeing all this, you couldn''t help butugh and cry." Chapter 163: Little Peach, help me! [You stockpiled food because you were worried about an attack from the Immortal n. If you couldn''t win, you would activate the Mortal Domain.] [At that time, you would be an ordinary person who needs to eat and drink.] [But what''s the point of these people following your lead?] [You didn''t n to use the Mortal Domain on them anyway.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [After all, once you activate the Mortal Domain, you still count on them to kill the enemy!] [However, you didn''t stop them either.] [After all, you''ve already stockpiled enough.] [If they want to stockpile, let them. It doesn''t hurt.] [In the blink of an eye, another ten years passed.][In the 360th year, your ce of refuge finally faced an attack from the Immortal n.] [Caught off guard, many of the cultivators of Spine Mountain perished.] [Fortunately, you activated the Mortal Domain in time, pulling the hundreds of invading Immortal n members into a mortal state.] [Under yourmand, the cultivators of Spine Mountainunched a counterattack.] [In just a few minutes, the hundreds of Immortal n members were all killed or injured.] [This battle once again boosted your reputation among the cultivators of Spine Mountain.] [They all knew that those Immortal n members were at least at the Mortal Immortal realm.] [But under your leadership, aside from the initial surprise, you achieved zero casualties!] [For a moment, you were like a true god in everyone''s eyes.] [However, you were not as optimistic as they were.] [Because you knew the ws of the Mortal Domain.] [This talent requires you to see the enemy, or for the enemy to attack you after you activate it, for it to take effect.] [Once the enemy''s strength far exceeds yours and they can attack from a ce you can''t see, your Mortal Domain bes useless.] [Although you can always keep the Mortal Domain active to protect yourself, you can''t protect others.] [But there''s nothing you can do about it.] [You can only hope that the Immortal n doesn''t discover this bug too soon!] [As for letting the people of Spine Mountain escape, it''s actually possible.] [But Wu Youdao had already said that the Immortal n was sweeping through the Western Regions.] [There was no truly safe ce!] [If those cultivators of Spine Mountain left you, they might die even faster.] [As for yourself, you weren''t that worried.] [If the iing Immortal n members were of the same level as before, even if there were hundreds of them, you felt you could fight them alone.] [You had already used the Eye of Insight to see that the strongest among those hundreds of Immortal n members was only at the Earth Immortal realm.] [The reason you used the Mortal Domain from the start was just to cover the cultivators of Spine Mountain.] [To put it bluntly, after so many years with these people, you had developed some feelings for them.] [As long as it didn''t affect your interests, you were willing to protect them.] [Besides, even if there were stronger enemies, as long as they weren''t above the Great Principal Golden Immortal level, you wouldn''t be in any danger as long as you kept the Mortal Domain active.] [Even if they were numerous, you wouldn''t panic if they tried to kill you with mortal bodies.] [After all, Little Peach was always in seclusion not far away.] [At worst, you could call Little Peach out of seclusion.] [After quickly cleaning up the battlefield, life returned to peace.] [But the good times didn''tst long.] [Three months passed.] [You were attacked by the Immortal n again.] [Using the same method, you killed all the invading Immortal n members again.] [After that, every few months, you would be attacked by the Immortal n once.] [Time flew by, and twenty years passed in the blink of an eye.] [In the 380th year, the Immortal n had attacked you over a hundred times.] [You roughly estimated that at least tens of thousands of Immortal n members had died here.] [But in recent years, the Immortal n discovered the bug in your Mortal Domain.] [As long as they attacked from a long distance and didn''t hit you, they wouldn''t turn into mortals.] [So, the Immortal n began to continuously hunt the cultivators of Spine Mountain from a distance.] [At that time, you even considered calling out Little Peach, who was still in seclusion.] [But in the end, you gave up.] [Little Peach''s cultivation was crucial to whether you could safely break through to a higher realm in this simtion.] [It was best not to disturb her cultivation.] [As for the cultivators of Spine Mountain, you could only apologize to them.] [You could no longer protect them safely.] [However, even though you said that, you didn''tpletely abandon them.] [The Immortal n didn''t dare to attack in groups, fearing that they would hit you and be pulled into the mortal state. They could only hunt your side''s other cultivators from a distance, one by one.] [This gave you time to react.] [After that, you stopped using the Mortal Domain continuously.] [Instead, you started using it intermittently.] [First, you restored your cultivation and observed the Immortal n members with your cultivation, then activated it again.] [Repeating this process!] [This gave your side''s cultivators a bit of a chance to resist.] [But as time went by,] [Up until now, the cultivators from Spine Mountain were finally all dead or injured.] [Now, the only ones left alive here were you and Little Peach, who was still in seclusion.] [No, there might be one more, Wu Youdao!] [But you weren''t sure about that.] [After all, Wu Youdao didn''t stay within your Mortal Domain to finish off the enemies.] [When the Immortal n discovered the bug in your Mortal Domain and started attacking from a distance, he rushed out.] [He went to fight those Immortal n members hiding in the distance.] [He never appeared again after that.] [You didn''t know if he had died in battle or had gone to fight further away.] [As for whether he had run away?] [Based on multiple simtions, you didn''t think Wu Youdao was the type to fear death.] [That possibility was low!] [But none of that mattered now.] [At this moment, you looked at the hundreds of Immortal n members surrounding you, slowly approaching.] [You finally sighed and shouted, "Little Peach, help!"] [There was no other way; there were too many of them.] [Moreover, you had seen with the Eye of Insight that there were a few Heaven Immortal realm experts among them.] [If you deactivated the Mortal Domain and everyone restored their cultivation, you would be even less of a match!] [As soon as you finished speaking, a terrifying aura emanated from Little Peach''s ce of seclusion.] [In an instant, Little Peach appeared by your side.] [She coldly scanned the group of Immortal n members.] [Then, with a wave of her hand, all the Immortal n members in their mortal state turned to ashes.] [You originally thought it was over.] [But you noticed that Little Peach frowned slightly and looked into the distance.] Chapter 164: Surprise Attack of the Supreme Unity Golden Immortal Realm [You follow her gaze, trying to see what she is looking at.] [But there''s nothing there.] [Suddenly, you remember that you are still in your Mortal Domain state.] [So you deactivate the Mortal Domain and rise into the air, wanting to see what lies in the distance.] [Seeing this, Little Peach quickly shouts, "Young Master, activate your talent!"] [She knows about your "Mortal Domain" talent.] [This was also the reason you convinced her to focus on her closed-door cultivation.] [Unfortunately, it seems a bit toote!] [Just as Little Peach''s words fall, an attack instantly descends upon you.][Panicking, you hurriedly try to reactivate the Mortal Domain.] [But you know it''s toote.] [The attack is too fast, faster than you can even think the words "activate Mortal Domain."] [Am I going to die?] [Just as the attack is about to hit, Little Peach appears in front of you.] [You can''t react in time, but Little Peach, who is already at the Golden Immortal stage, reacts much faster than you.] ["Pfft," Little Peach spits out a mouthful of blood, but she manages to withstand the attack for you.] [Only then do you manage to reactivate the Mortal Domain.] [You look at the slightly weakened Little Peach, feeling a deep sense of guilt.] [You know it''s all because of your carelessness.] [Over the years, your Mortal Domain talent has kept you out of danger.] [It made you overlook the gap in hard power.] [Of course, the most important thing is that the strongest Immortal n members you''ve encountered before were only at the True Immortal stage.] [Even if they ambushed you, you could activate your talent in time upon detecting the attack.] [Years of battles have ingrained this behavior in you.] [You never expected someone to appear who could kill you before you could activate your talent.] [In fact, you don''t know that the Immortal n member who ambushed you is already a Supreme Unity Golden Immortal at the peak stage.] [He has been hiding in the distance, observing you for years.] [All these years, he never made a move, just studying your Mortal Domain.] [He has basically figured out the ws of your Mortal Domain.] [He concluded that with your low cultivation level, you couldn''t detect him. As long as he attacked from out of your sight, you couldn''t dodge.] [As long as his attack speed was fast enough to exploit the time difference, you wouldn''t have time to activate your talent, which could pull others into a mortal state.] [However, the prerequisite for all this was to wait for you to deactivate that strange ability.] [And just now, when he saw you rise into the air, he knew the opportunity hade.] [After all, after observing you for so many years, he already knew that once you restored your cultivation, your strange ability would be ineffective.] [The moment you deactivated the "Mortal Domain" talent, he struck immediately.] [With his strength, it didn''t even take 0.00...01 seconds to attack you, enough time to pronounce your death sentence.] [The Supreme Unity Golden Immortal was very confident in this.] [Unfortunately, he underestimated Little Peach by your side.] [In his eyes, a woman at the Golden Immortal stage actually saw through his attack and even withstood it, crossing a major realm.] [Of course, you don''t know what that Immortal n member is thinking.] [At this moment, you have alreadye to Little Peach''s side to check her injuries.] [Seeing that her life is not in danger, you feel a bit relieved.] [But is it over?] [No, it''s not.] [The Supreme Unity Golden Immortal strikes again, targeting Little Peach this time.] [He knows that missing the first strike means he won''t have another chance for now.] [So this time, his target is Little Peach.] [But it seems he still underestimates Little Peach.] [Although she took a hit for your safety just now, she hasn''tpletely lost herbat power.] [As the Immortal n member''s attack arrives, Little Peach dodges in advance.] [Dodging the attack, Little Peach knows she can''t stay on the defensive.] [She nces at you, reminding you not to deactivate your talent again, and then shes away into the distance.] [In the blink of an eye, Little Peach disappears from your sight.] [In your mortal state, you can''t see any of this clearly.] [You also don''t know the enemy''s true strength!] [Now, you can only wait in ce.] [However, this incident has made you deeply aware of the importance of hard power.] [For instance, in the situation just now.] [Even if you have the Mortal Domain talent, as long as the enemy stays far away and out of your sight, you can''t protect those around you.] [And you have to be extremely cautious, never deactivating the Mortal Domain.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [Otherwise, you would also be a target for assassination.] [At this moment, you are desperate to increase your strength.] [You even think about directly summoning Heavenly Thunder to cross the tribtion and break through.] [But in the end, you give up.] [You know that breaking through with the tribtion now won''t change the situation.] [It would only make things more severe, attracting even greater danger.] [Now, you can only rely on Little Peach.] [Five days pass in the blink of an eye.] [Little Peach''s figure finally appears in your sight.] [She is back!] [But now, her face is pale, and she is covered in blood.] [You quickly run over to support her.] [Little Peach looks at you, smiles, and says, "Young Master, it''s safe now!"] [As soon as she finishes speaking, Little Peach faints.] [Yes, Little Peach, at the Golden Immortal stage, has in a Supreme Unity Golden Immortal at the peak stage.] [But she paid a heavy price for it!] [Seeing the unconscious Little Peach, you quickly carry her to the closed-door cultivation ce.] [It takes a full six months for Little Peach to slowly wake up.] [Fortunately, during this time, no other Immortal n members came to attack.] [The days that followed seemed to calm down.] [Little Peach spent every day healing and cultivating.] [As for you, initially, you had nothing to do.] [After all, you didn''t know if the Immortal n members woulde to attack again.] [And after the previous ambush, you didn''t dare to easily deactivate the Mortal Domain.] [This made it impossible for you to cultivate.] [It wasn''t until five yearster, with no further incidents, that you deactivated the Mortal Domain and continued to practice the Silent Destruction Fist.] [Time flies, and another twenty years pass!] [In the 400th year, Little Peach''s injuries havepletely healed, and her cultivation has even advanced to the early stage of Supreme Unity Golden Immortal.] [Seeing her breakthrough, you feel a bit excited.] [You think to yourself: It''s close, it''s close. Once Little Peach advances two more major realms, she should be able to cover you during your breakthrough.] Chapter 165: Cultivation is not like this! [It was also on a certain day of this year.] [While you were cultivating, you suddenly saw a rain of blood falling from the sky.] [At first, you were just cautious but not overly worried.] [After all, it had rained blood here before!] [Back then, you learned that it was due to a battle between people from the Nine Mystic Realm and the Immortal Realm in the void, causing countless deaths!] [This time, you guessed it might be the same.] [As long as it didn''t affect you, you didn''t pay much attention.] [After all, such battles were not umon here.] [But the rain of blood grew heavier and heavier!][At one point, you even felt a massive energy within the blood rain.] [The energy in the blood rain made your heart palpitate.] [This was too abnormal.] [What level of a strong person''s blood could contain such energy?] [Not only did you feel something was wrong.] [Little Peach, who was in seclusion, also seemed to sense something amiss.] [She instantly appeared beside you.] [She looked up at the sky, her brows furrowed.] [Unfortunately, although Little Peach had reached the Supreme Unity Golden Immortal realm, she still couldn''t see through everything in the void.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [Because it was a Saint battle!] [Saint realm experts were fighting.] [How could a Supreme Unity Golden Immortal see clearly?] In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this. His eyes changed. Saint realm experts were fighting? Didn''t Guo Qing say that a man and a woman, two peerless experts, had set a rule? Saint realm experts were not allowed to participate in the battle? Why were Saint realm experts suddenly fighting? Could something have happened? Causing the rules to change. The previous assumption was that Saint realm experts couldn''t take action, but the rules would change if it was against him. This time, it wasn''t against him. But the rules still changed. This proved that the previous assumption had some misjudgment. However, Jiang Yifeng didn''t think deeply about this issue at the moment. Instead, he was considering whether the current battle of Saint realm experts might be a good opportunity to break through the tribtion. His simted self didn''t know these things. Jiang Yifeng was contemting whether to perform a deep simtion to change his simted self''s actions. However, he was also hesitant. Although this was a good opportunity. But the original n to let Little Peach fully enhance herself seemed to have reached its final stage. In just over 400 years, Little Peach had reached the Supreme Unity Golden Immortal realm. Now, she was only two major realms away from the Saint realm. In another one or two hundred years, she should be able to achieve the goal. Wouldn''t it be safer to break through then? After all, not all Saint realm experts might be involved in this battle. Jiang Yifeng wasn''t even sure if the battle might suddenly stop. In the end, he gave up the idea of performing a deep simtion to change his simted actions. However, Jiang Yifeng noted down the time of "the 420th year when Saint realm experts fought." After that, he continued to look at the simtor. [Time passed day by day, and the blood rain showed no signs of stopping.] [In the 430th year, with a loud bang, the torrential blood rain that hadsted for 30 years finally began to subside.] [You stared into the distance, at the source of the loud bang.] [You saw a woman in purple!] ["Is it her?" you murmured in surprise.] [You remembered that she was a powerful figure who had secluded herself in the Southern Regions.] [When the Southern Regions shattered, she even took the heavily injured Saint realm expert who shattered the Southern Regions and escaped with two people.] [Unexpectedly, she was now struck down in this Western Regions!] [The woman in purple seemed to notice you observing her.] [She looked at you with aplicated expression.] [Her lips moved slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, she didn''t speak.] [Soon, several Saint realm expertsnded not far from the woman in purple.] [They looked vignt, forming a surrounding formation, closing in on the woman in purple.] [Obviously, this woman in purple was very strong. Even though she was seriously injured, these Saint realm experts still didn''t dare to be careless.] [You knew that at this rate, the woman in purple had no chance of survival.] [But you weren''t thinking about that at the moment.] [Because you felt that you were also locked onto by those Saint realm experts.] [You could only pray in your heart that those Saint realm experts wouldn''t casually kill you as well.] [As for running away?] [What a joke?] [You were already locked onto. At this distance, those Saint realm experts could kill you with a casual strike!] [You didn''t dare to move at all.] [Tick-tock, tick-tock, time flowed slowly.] [Just as those Saint realm experts were about tounch the final killing blow at the woman in purple.] [A figure suddenly appeared in the middle of the battlefield.] [The person held a long spear, dressed in a green robe!] [He shouted, "Who dares to bully my wife!"] [The Saint realm experts hadn''t reacted yet.] [But you widened your eyes.] ["Is that? Father?"] [Jiang Fushan seemed to sense your gaze. He looked towards you and smiled.] [You saw his lips move slightly, and a voice echoed in your ears: "Feng''er, run!"] ["It''s really Father!" Tears instantly streamed down your face.] [At this moment, your father had already started fighting with those Saint realm experts!] [Although your father Jiang Fushan made a grand entrance.] [He had just recovered to the early Saint realm. Facing many opponents, he quickly fell into a disadvantage!] ["Puff, puff, puff!" You saw your father Jiang Fushan spitting blood again and again.] [You were extremely anxious, but there was nothing you could do!] [Time passed bit by bit.] [The woman in purple, who was your mother, also joined the battle again!] [But the two of them were still no match for the dozens of Saint realm experts.] [Death was just a matter of time.] [In the blink of an eye, three days passed.] [Your father Jiang Fushan and your mother Su Mushuang were struck down again!] [They looked like they were on the verge of exhaustion.] [At this moment, you saw a woman approaching from afar.] [She was dressed in red, holding a long sword.] [Despite being only at the Golden Immortal realm, she resolutely charged into the battlefield of Saint realm experts!] In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this. Tears welled up instantly. He reflected on whether his constant pursuit of power was truly the right path. His simted self didn''t know who the Lady in Red was. But Jiang Yifeng knew that it was definitely his sister, Jiang Ruxuan. Even at the Golden Immortal realm, she dared to charge into the Saint battlefield for her family. And he only dared to watch from afar? Was this right? Although it was just a simtion, should he abandon his emotions in the simtion? If he was so afraid of death in the simtion, disregarding his family''s life and death, could he be different in reality? Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng shouted. "No, cultivation isn''t like this!" Chapter 166: The Ignored Jiang Yifeng After a loud roar, Jiang Yifeng suddenly had a sh of inspiration. He silently chanted to himself, "Activate deep simtion for three days!" [Ding: Activating deep simtion for three days, deducting 72 origin values, remaining origin values...] In an instant, Jiang Yifeng appeared within the simtion. He nced at the distant void where a fierce battle was taking ce. Even though it was thousands of miles away, he could still feel the earth-shattering spells of the Saint realm experts. He realized that with his current strength, even the residual waves of those spells could obliterate him. At this moment, he finally understood why he had been too afraid to make any moves before. However, he did not regret activating this deep simtion.After all, this was within his expectations. Jiang Yifeng was not stupid; he had his moments of cleverness. How could he not know the gap between himself and the Saint realm experts? He entered the deep simtion not to charge in recklessly but because he had a n. He nced at his father, Jiang Fushan, who was fighting desperately, and murmured to himself, "What a passionate old man!" "As your son, how can I keep hiding?" "Next, let''s see what fate has in store for us!" As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Yifeng''s aura erupted. He began to merge the primordial energy and spiritual energy within his body. He was preparing to trigger a tribtion. In fact, this was a decision Jiang Yifeng had made when he decided to enter the deep simtion. He knew that his current strength couldn''t change the situation within the simtion. But he couldplicate matters. After all, in hisst simtion, his tribtion had attracted Immortal Thirteen, a Saint realm expert. So who woulde this time when he broke through? Would it be Immortal Thirteen again? Or perhaps more Saint realm experts?N?v(el)B\\jnn Or would the Saint realm experts attacking his parents be drawn to his breakthrough? Jiang Yifeng didn''t know any of this. But he knew that he had fragments of the Heavenly Dao that Saint realm experts coveted, or perhaps other things. As long as he triggered the tribtion, he would be exposed and attract Saint realm experts. This was the variable! This variable could cause those Saint realm experts to fight each other for the fragments of the Heavenly Dao on him. It could also attract more Saint realm experts, making the situation even moreplicated. Of course, they might also ignore him for now, kill his parents first, and thene for the fragments on him. ... All of these were possibilities! But Jiang Yifeng felt that in a situation where death was certain, introducing a new variable was better than watching his father die. This was Jiang Yifeng''s inner reflection. As for the oue of this variable, whether it would be good or bad? That would depend on fate. Jiang Yifeng could already foresee his own end. This simtion was about to end. He had abandoned his previous n for a stable breakthrough. ording to the previous n, he would have cultivated Little Peach to the Saint realm, then found a hidden ce to protect him during his breakthrough. That way, there was a high chance for a stable breakthrough. After all, in the previous simtion, only one Saint realm expert, Immortal Thirteen, had been attracted when he broke through. As long as Little Peach could break through to the Saint realm, she could definitely hold off Immortal Thirteen. At that time, the sess rate of the breakthrough could be as high as ny percent. Of course, this was Jiang Yifeng''s own feeling; who could say for sure? But in any case, it would be better than breaking through now. Now, by breaking through, he would be facing dozens of Saint realm experts, and possibly even attracting Immortal Thirteen. Knowing that Saint realm experts would covet the fragments of the Heavenly Dao on him, choosing to break through now was not rational. But Jiang Yifeng still did it. Because he wanted to clear his mind. Perhaps, continuing to pretend not to see anything and hiding in the simtion to improve steadily was the best choice. But if he was still hesitant in the simtion, watching his father in danger of being killed without doing anything, could he have the courage to face strong enemies when real danger came? He already knew the answer. Impossible. Knowing that it was just a simtion, even if he died, it would only end the simtion without real-life danger. If he didn''t dare to fight under such circumstances, he would retreat even faster when faced with real danger! Although he knew there was a difference between simtion and reality, he also knew that courage was always his own. If he kept being timid, his courage and sharpness would gradually be worn down, whether in reality or simtion. He would think about waiting a bit longer, developing a bit more. But there would always be stronger opponents, and tomorrow woulde after today. When would be the best choice? It was for this reason that Jiang Yifeng chose what seemed like a foolish decision. Not just for his father in the simtion, but also for his own courage! Of course, if it was just to throw his life away, Jiang Yifeng wouldn''t do it. But now, what he was doing was introducing a variable, not just throwing his life away. He was gambling! Now, by breaking through, there was still a slight chance of sess, and it might even resolve his father''s crisis. At the moment Jiang Yifeng''s aura erupted. Thunder roared in the chaos. Countless tribtion clouds descended from the chaos to the Western Regions of the Nine Mystic Realm. Soon, bolts of tribtion lightning struck Jiang Yifeng. He officially began his tribtion crossing! This sudden change made the Saint realm experts who were attacking his parents immediately turn their attention to him. At this moment, in their eyes, he was like a treasure, and their expressions changed. Several Saint realm experts even slowed their attacks on his parents. But at this moment, a white-haired Saint realm expert snorted coldly and shouted, "Don''t get distracted! Kill them first, then we can safely seize the benefits!" "Have you forgotten what those two did before?" The white-haired Saint''s words made the others pause. Yes! They had to kill Jiang Fushan and Su Mushuang first. Otherwise, they couldn''t safely seize the Heavenly Dao! For a moment, the attacks of these Saint realm experts on Jiang Fushan and the others became even more frenzied. Although Jiang Yifeng was crossing his tribtion, his eyes were fixed on those Saint realm experts. Because of the distance, Jiang Yifeng didn''t hear what they said. But what he saw left him bewildered. He didn''t know if his father and his barely-remembered mother had dug up the ancestors of these Saint realm experts. They were willing to temporarily give up the coveted fragments of the Heavenly Dao just to kill his parents first. Jiang Yifeng looked helplessly at the distant Saint realm experts besieging his parents. His expression seemed to say, "I have fragments of the Heavenly Dao here." "Is anyone going to care about me?" "If you ignore me like this, doesn''t it make me look silly?" Chapter 167: Ding, danger, danger, please self-destruct, Host Time passed by bit by bit. Over there, the battle between the Saint realm experts and Jiang Yifeng''s parents continued. Meanwhile, Jiang Yifeng had been enduring the tribtion lightning for over ten minutes. At this moment, the tribtion lightning grew increasingly stronger, and Jiang Yifeng had already sustained numerous injuries. He could no longer spare any attention to observe the battle over there. Soon, a ripple in the void signaled the arrival of Immortal Thirteen. No, not just Immortal Thirteen, but several other Saint realm experts as well. In fact, these Saint realm experts were divided into different regions. Immortal Thirteen originally guarded the Great Wilderness, but now he had crossed regions to seize the fragments of the Heavenly Dao.Naturally, he needed to bring more helpers. Initially, Immortal Thirteen thought he had arrived toote. Now, seeing that Jiang Yifeng had not yet been controlled by other Saint realm experts, he felt a surge of joy. However, when he noticed Jiang Fushan and Su Mushuang, his expression changed slightly, and he turned to flee. Unfortunately, it was toote. The moment Immortal Thirteen and his group appeared, Jiang Fushan had already noticed them. He quickly formed a hand seal. As the spell activated, Jiang Fushan shouted, "Immortal Thirteen,e and help the master fend off the enemies!" Immortal Thirteen''s face fell, and he involuntarily attacked the Saint realm experts who had been besieging Jiang Fushan. Following this, Immortal Twelve, Immortal Eleven, Immortal Ten... all of them were forced to join the battlefield. The battlefield of the Saint realm saw a new shift. With the addition of Immortal Thirteen and the other Saint realm experts bearing the title of Immortal, Jiang Fushan''s side instantly gained the upper hand. Meanwhile, Jiang Yifeng, who was undergoing his tribtion, found his mind in a muddle. What was happening? He had just seen Immortal Thirteen arrive and thought his father, Jiang Fushan, was doomed. But now, it turned out they were helpers. It seemed Immortal Thirteen was somehow controlled by his father. It appeared his father''s background was deeper than just being a Saint realm expert. Regardless, Jiang Yifeng felt he had made the right gamble by sheer luck. With the addition of these Saint realm experts, his father was safe. And he should be able to smoothly pass the tribtion andplete his breakthrough. However, just as Jiang Yifeng thought everything was going smoothly, new figures continuously appeared in the void. Each of them was at the Saint realm. A battle involving hundreds of Saints began. The Saint realm experts fought with all their might. The Western Regions quickly fell apart. Jiang Yifeng''s chaotic tribtion lightning was also disrupted by the battle among these Saint realm experts and began to dissipate! This was something Jiang Yifeng had previously overlooked. In thest simtion, it had actually shown that Immortal Thirteen believed their full-scale battle would affect the chaotic tribtion lightning, causing it to disperse. In fact, logically speaking, his father Jiang Fushan and those Saint realm experts had been fighting thousands of kilometers away. The fact that Jiang Yifeng could attract the chaotic tribtion lightning was already a special case. If not for the sheer strength of his tribtion, it would have been difficult to attract the lightning at that time. Now, with a battle involving hundreds of Saints across the entire Western Regions, and even the entire Nine Mystic Realm, it was only natural for his chaotic tribtion lightning to be driven away. Just as Jiang Yifeng thought he was going to fail his breakthrough again, Little Peach, who had been nearby, suddenly appeared beside him. At first, Jiang Yifeng didn''t notice. But soon, he realized that Little Peach was different. When did she reach the Saint realm? Little Peach grabbed Jiang Yifeng and flew into the void. The two of them left the Nine Mystic Realm and headed into the chaos. Jiang Yifeng''s chaotic tribtion lightning followed them. His breakthrough had not been interrupted and continued. Everything seemed to be moving in a positive direction. After cing Jiang Yifeng into the chaos, Little Peach suddenly smiled and said, "Young Master, this is as far as I can help you!" In an instant, Little Peach''s figure became transparent and dissipated. "What?" Jiang Yifeng reached out to grab Little Peach, but only a wisp of ash remained. He couldn''t understand why. Why did Little Peach suddenly act this way? Was it because he needed to attract the tribtion lightning to break through? Did Little Peach have to reach the Saint realm? Perhaps Little Peach was a contingency left by his past self? Her purpose was to cover his breakthrough? The more he thought about it, the more Jiang Yifeng felt this was likely. But it seemed she couldn''t maintain it for long and only had one chance to act. In thest simtion, she had dealt with Immortal Thirteen. This time, she brought him into the chaos. In an instant, Jiang Yifeng thought of many things. "Boom!" A bolt of tribtion lightning struck down. Jiang Yifeng had no time to think further and quickly dealt with the falling lightning. Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, more than two days had passed. Jiang Yifeng finally broke through to the Divine realm! Yes, after his breakthrough, his realm was not the Mortal Immortal realm but a One-Star Ancient God. Afterpleting his breakthrough, Jiang Yifeng had no time to feel excited. A sense of fear surged within him. He sensed the void in the chaos trembling. A voice echoed from the depths of the chaos. "Hehehe, after crossing so many times and spaces, I''ve finally found you!" At the same time, the simtor''s warning sounded in Jiang Yifeng''s ear! [Ding, danger, danger! Host, self-destruct immediately, self-destruct immediately!] "WTF?" Hearing the simtor''s prompt, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but curse. What was going on? It wanted him to self-destruct. Although he didn''t understand, since the simtor warned him so urgently, Jiang Yifeng didn''t dare to dy. He directly detonated his Nascent Soul, Qi Sea, and Primordial Spirit. With a "boom," Jiang Yifeng turned into a mist of blood. Shortly after Jiang Yifeng self-destructed, a blurry shadow emerged from the depths of the chaos. He looked at the spot where Jiang Yifeng had self-destructed and began forming hand seals. After a long time. The blurry shadow muttered to himself. "Hmm? Can''t trace it?"N?v(el)B\\jnn "Interesting, was it your contingency? Or is someone helping you?" Jiang Yifeng naturally knew nothing of this. At this moment, he had already returned to reality. Simultaneously, lines of text appeared on the simtor panel. [On a certain day in the 430th year, you broke through to a One-Star Ancient God in the chaos.] [After the breakthrough, you sensed a fatal crisis and chose to self-destruct!] [You died at the age of 450!] [This simtion has ended.] [In this simtion, the host can choose two rewards for exchange.] [Inevitable Enlightenment (Talent), Divine Dao Cultivation (One-Star Ancient God Initial Stage), Silent Destruction Fist (Perfected), Law of Time (Beginner).] [Inevitable Enlightenment (Talent)]: Price 1000 origin values. [Divine Dao Cultivation (One-Star Ancient God Initial Stage)]: Price 1 million origin values. (Note: One-Star Ancient God is divided into Initial Stage, Middle Stage, Late Stage, Peak, and Perfected.) [Silent Destruction Fist (Perfected)]: Price 1.1 million origin values. [Law of Time (Beginner)]: Price 1 million origin values. Chapter 168: The True Function of the Divine Dao Nascent Soul Chapter 168: The True Function of the Divine Dao Nascent Soul Jiang Yifeng looked at the rewards on the simtor, feeling a bit conflicted. These... are all too good! The talent of Inevitable Enlightenment elerates all kinds ofprehension, making it terrifyingly powerful. I must choose this. The Silent Destruction Fist (Perfected) is a battle technique I''ve been cultivating for hundreds of years. It would feel like a loss not to choose it. The Law of Time? This is a supremew, even at the entry level, it''s extraordinary! And Divine Dao Cultivation, a One-Star Ancient God¡ªthis should correspond to the Mortal Immortal realm! He had simted several times to break through. Now that he finally seeded, how could he not choose? Quickly, Jiang Yifeng made his decision.He was more inclined towards talent and cultivation. After all, based on the simtion, as long as he had the talent of Inevitable Enlightenment, he could master the Silent Destruction Fist with time. There would be no danger. As for the Law of Time? He could only reluctantly give it up. However, ording to Jiang Yifeng''s thoughts, since the perfected Silent Destruction Fist contains the power of time, perhaps after mastering it, he could also gain some insight into the Law of Time. Thus, Jiang Yifeng made his choice. "I choose Inevitable Enlightenment (Talent) and Divine Dao Cultivation!" After saying this, he quickly added, "Simtor, block any disturbances that might be caused by my breakthrough. Deduct the origin values as needed!" Jiang Yifeng hadn''t forgotten that in the simtion, his breakthrough had attracted chaotic tribtion lightning and a Saint realm expert. In reality, he would definitely need the simtor''s help to conceal it immediately. As for whether the simtor could do this? Jiang Yifeng believed it could. After all, it had done simr things before! As for deducting origin values? No worries, he had plenty! [Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining Inevitable Enlightenment (Talent), deducting 1000 origin values, remaining origin values.] Instantly, the talent was sessfully extracted. But the Divine Dao Cultivation wasn''t directly given to Jiang Yifeng by the simtor. Instead, a peculiar prompt sounded. [Ding, there are two options for blocking the chaotic tribtion lightning. Which one does the host choose?] [1. Directly block the tribtion and elevate the realm. (Advantages: cheap and quick; Disadvantages: lowbat power, low upper limit!)] [2. Guide the chaotic tribtion lightning for internal tribtion crossing, also undetectable. (Advantages: strongbat power; Disadvantages: a bit expensive.)] Jiang Yifeng never expected that the simtor could not only block the tribtion but also offer two choices! Although it seemed true that breaking through without the tribtion would result in lowerbat power due to theck of body tempering. However, Jiang Yifeng felt that the simtor was trying to drain his origin values. But still, as he always said. It''s just origin values, right? He had plenty, couldn''t even spend them all. Jiang Yifeng directly chose the slightly expensive option of guiding the chaotic tribtion lightning for internal tribtion crossing. As for the cheaper option with low upper limits andbat power, only a fool would choose that! After making his choice, the simtor''s voice immediately sounded. [Choice sessful, deducting 10 million origin values, remaining origin values.] [Ding, Divine Dao Cultivation (One-Star Ancient God realm initial stage) is being extracted, deducting 1 million origin values, remaining origin values.] As soon as the simtor''s voice fell, Jiang Yifeng felt waves of thunderous sounds within his body. Soon, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. Damn, this hurts too much! This was the first time Jiang Yifeng felt such immense pain when extracting cultivation from the simtor. Jiang Yifeng didn''t know that each time cultivation was extracted, his body underwent a series of tempering. It was just that the simtor blocked a lot of the pain for him. But this time was different. Even with the simtor''srge-scale pain blocking, guiding the chaotic tribtion lightning within his body for tempering was like cing his internal organs under the tribtion. This was actually more terrifying and painful than directly crossing the tribtion. If it weren''t for the simtor blocking a lot of the pain, Jiang Yifeng would have long been unable to endure it. One could say that Jiang Yifeng was tricked by the simtor. Of course, this was actually for his own good. There were huge benefits to doing this. His vitality and defense would be stronger in the future. After all, his internal organs were baptized by chaotic tribtion lightning. This directly strengthened his internal defenses. It took a full half hour before Jiang Yifeng could get up from the ground. Yes, he had been rolling on the ground in pain just now. Now, with the extraction of cultivationplete, he could finally stand up. He felt the changes in his body. He found that all the primordial energy and spiritual energy within him had disappeared, all transformed into golden chaotic energy. Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng was stunned. How would he cultivate in the future? Would he still absorb spiritual energy and primordial energy? After all, he couldn''t sense the presence of chaotic energy in the air. He tried to absorb external spiritual energy. Soon, he found that he could still absorb spiritual energy, which made him breathe a sigh of relief. If he couldn''t absorb spiritual energy to cultivate, he''d be doomed. However, Jiang Yifeng found that the spiritual energy he just absorbed didn''t directly enter his Qi Sea but was absorbed by his Nascent Soul. Jiang Yifeng was puzzled by this. After several more tests, he found that all the spiritual energy was drawn to his Nascent Soul. Not a single strand entered his Qi Sea. This made Jiang Yifeng worried. Could he really not advance anymore? But he didn''t have any Divine Dao cultivation methods! Unwilling to give up, he tried cultivating Martial Dao, producing a strand of primordial energy.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om The moment the primordial energy appeared, it was instantly absorbed by his Nascent Soul. Just as Jiang Yifeng was about to give up and look for Divine Dao cultivation methods in future simtions, he found his Nascent Soul starting to exhale golden chaotic energy! How could this be? Jiang Yifeng was incredulous. He calmed down and carefully observed the movements of his Nascent Soul. Soon, he discovered that his Nascent Soul was actually helping him fuse the absorbed spiritual energy and primordial energy. After fusion, it transformed into chaotic energy and was sent into his Qi Sea. Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng''s eyes brightened. So this was the role of his Nascent Soul? Previously, although his Nascent Soul was peculiar, its true function never manifested. After all, ording to previous exnations, his Nascent Soul was stronger, with greater escape capabilities. But the enemies he encountered were either too weak, easily defeated, or too strong, impossible to escape from. But now it seemed, the true function of his Nascent Soul might not just be to enhance escape capabilities. It was to elerate his cultivation after stepping into the Ancient God realm. ording to Jiang Yifeng''s thoughts, there might not be a pure Divine Dao cultivation method. Chapter 169: Simulator upgrade to version 6.0 Chapter 169: Simtor upgrade to version 6.0 After all, he had just sensed it; there was no presence of chaotic energy in the air. So, it was highly likely that those cultivating the Divine Dao had to generate primordial energy themselves and fuse it with absorbed spiritual energy to create chaotic energy, gradually enhancing their power. But how to fuse them? At this moment, the Divine Dao Nascent Soul began to y its role. Jiang Yifeng never expected that the foundation of the Divine Dao would take so long to establish. It was akin to the transformation from the twelfth-grade Golden Core breakthrough at the Foundation Establishment stage to the changes urring at the Nascent Soul stage, all preparing for the Divine Dao to break through to the Ancient God realm and convert chaotic energy. Without those prior steps, even if one forcibly cultivated the Divine Dao and broke through to the Ancient God realm, they wouldn''t be able to acquire chaotic energy to continue enhancing their power! At this moment, Jiang Yifeng suddenly thought of Shen Wutian. Perhaps Shen Wutian''s predicament was due tocking this foundation, leading him to seek a true Divine Dao cultivator to devour, even after switching to the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao.Maybe what Shen Wutian wanted was the Nascent Soul of a true Divine Dao cultivator. After confirming he could continue his cultivation, Jiang Yifeng felt relieved. Now, he could finally take a moment to sense his current strength. After a brief assessment, Jiang Yifeng felt that his current power was terrifyingly strong. He believed he could crush his pre-breakthrough self with just a pinky finger. With such a significant boost, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t be bothered to fuss over the simtor costing him 10 million origin values. As for the pain during the breakthrough? Jiang Yifeng didn''t mention it. He knew others had it much tougher in their cultivation. This bit of suffering, he could endure; there was no need to argue with the simtor. After a brief rest, Jiang Yifeng began to recall the information he had gained from this simtion. He learned that he had a mother and a sister. Of course, that wasn''t important; Jiang Yifeng felt no attachment to them. But his father, Jiang Fushan, he couldn''t ignore. It seemed his father, Jiang Fushan, had a significant background. So many Saint realm experts wanted to kill him. They were even willing to temporarily forgo the fragments of the Heavenly Dao. Moreover, his father had controlled those Saint realm experts, including Immortal Thirteen, in the end. It seemed that Immortal Thirteen and the others were once his father''s subordinates. ... But Jiang Yifeng knew his current strength was insufficient, and he couldn''t do much for now. He could only summarize and record this information. After doing so, Jiang Yifeng silently chanted, "Upgrade the simtor!" After Jiang Yifeng''s cultivation breakthrough, the simtor had already met the upgrade conditions. This was also one of the main reasons he insisted on choosing Divine Dao cultivation. [Ding, the simtor has been upgraded to version 6.0, deducting 10 million origin values, remaining origin values.] [Setting Modification 1: Simtion reward options merged.] (Divine Dao cultivation, Battle Techniques, Laws, etc., are all merged into the cultivation option!) [Setting Modification 2: New red talent added. From now on, talent extraction will cost 1,000 origin values, randomly obtaining one of purple, orange, or red talents.] (Note: Purple talent probability is 66%, orange talent probability is 33%, red talent probability is 1%.) [Tip: Red talents are not from this world; their specific power can be referenced from one-time talents!] [Setting Modification 3: Cross-time-space simtion enabled. (Three simtion opportunities can be exchanged for one cross-time-space simtion.)] (Cross-time-space simtion: The host can designate a timeline and randomly obtain a new identity for simtion.) [Setting Modification 4: Optimized host''s personal panel!] ... After reading the simtor''s upgrade introduction, Jiang Yifeng continuously analyzed the impacts of the various setting modifications. Overall, they were all beneficial. The first modification allowed him to improve faster. He wouldn''t have to separate Battle Techniques, Laws, and cultivation like this time, which had caused him much hesitation. This setting modification perfectly solved his dilemma of only daring to enhance one ability in the simtion. The second, red talent, although the probability was low, it was still red. Moreover, it was specified as not from this world, which Jiang Yifeng thought meant it wasn''t a fragment of the Heavenly Dao. Thest tip was also clear, referencing one-time talents. Based on the simtions during this period, no one-time talent was weak. And once he drew a red talent, it would be equivalent to having a permanent one-time talent. Jiang Yifeng was somewhat looking forward to it. The third cross-time-space simtion required further research. After all, it was a random identity, and Jiang Yifeng thought it might not inherit his current strength. So, this feature was more likely to let him explore certain truths. As for the fourth modification? Jiang Yifeng wasn''t sure yet. So, he directly opened his personal panel. He wanted to see what new changes had urred. [Host: Jiang Yifeng.] [Orange Talents: Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root, Heaven Rewards Diligence, Taotie Divine Body, Late Bloomer, Pill Dao Saint Hand, Mortal Domain, Inevitable Enlightenment.] [Purple Talents: Eye of Insight, Formation Dao Genius, Yimu Divine Body, Love Saint, Child of Fortune, Random Enlightenment.] [Divine Dao Cultivation: One-Star Ancient God, early stage] [Secondary Cultivation: Ninth-grade Formation Master.] [Primary Cultivation Techniques: Devouring Spirit Art (Immortal Dao), War God Art (Martial Dao)] [Practiced Techniques: Wind Chasing Art (Great Aplishment), Silent Destruction Fist (Minor Aplishment).] [Laws and Mysteries: True Meaning of the Killing Dao (Great Aplishment), Law of Thunder (Entry), Law of Wind (Entry).] [Possessions: None.] (Note: Ordinary cultivation items and already cultivated techniques are no longer disyed) [Combat Power Rating in the Same Realm: 5 stars; (Note: Full score is ten stars.)] [Summary: Compared to ordinary Immortal Dao and Martial Dao cultivators, you are very strong; butpared to Divine Dao experts in the same realm, you are just trash!] After closing the personal panel, Jiang Yifeng didn''t see many changes in the simtion panel''s optimization. It just categorized talents and no longer disyed ordinary items, adding a system summary! And the summary even mocked him. Jiang Yifeng was speechless. He didn''t care about these; he was clear about his own strength. After all, his current advantage was merely in cultivating the Divine Dao. So, he was stronger than those in the Immortal Dao and Martial Dao.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om But facing Divine Dao experts in the same realm, he certainly wasn''t strong. However, so what? He would catch up slowly. Jiang Yifeng nced at the sky outside; it was still early. Since that was the case. Jiang Yifeng decided to continue the simtion. After all, he had umted three simtion opportunities before. Now, there were still two left. Given his current strength, he wasn''t ready to experience the cross-time-space simtion. So, he silently chanted, "Start simtion!" [Consuming one simtion opportunity, remaining opportunities: 1] [Ding, do you want to spend 1,000 origin values to randomly draw a talent?] "Yes!" [Drawing talent, deducting 1,000 origin values, remaining origin values.] [Congrattions to the host for obtaining the red talent: Cmity Tribtion Body!] [Cmity Tribtion Body]: An upgraded version of the Cmity Physique, wherever you are, terrifying tribtions will inevitably ur. (Note: Cherish it while you can!) [Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining the one-time talent: Possession!] [Possession]: A passive skill, after death, your soul will randomly possess and revive in endless time and space. Chapter 170: Pitiful Demonic Phoenix Jiang Yifeng looked at the talent he had drawn, his expressionplicated. Should he be happy? Or should he be unhappy? A red talent? A 1% chance, and he actually hit it. But looking at the talent and its description, he couldn''t bring himself to be happy. Previously, a purple Cmity Physique almost made him a source of chaos. Everyone avoided him like the gue. Now, this enhanced version, the red Cmity Tribtion Body. What kind of consequences would it bring?Jiang Yifeng couldn''t imagine! As for the one-time talent: Possession. Actually, at Jiang Yifeng''s level, if his Primordial Spirit wasn''t destroyed, he would have a chance to possess someone. But the karma of possession was too great, often not worth the cost. Except for a few demonic cultivators, normal cultivators wouldn''t choose to possess others, even if it meant rebirth. Of course, Jiang Yifeng never had the chance to possess anyone. Every simtion ended in a death soplete that his Primordial Spirit couldn''t survive. So, when Jiang Yifeng saw this talent, his first feeling wasn''t excitement, just confusion. But he thought, since the simtor gave this talent, it surely wouldn''t be that simple. After all, one-time talents were never trash. Maybe this talent could ignore the destruction of the Primordial Spirit and still allow possession? Jiang Yifeng thought it over and felt this was the most likely scenario! But as for the specifics, he could only find outter. While Jiang Yifeng was pondering the talent''s use, the simtor''s prompt sounded. [Ding, the host can choose one talent from the talent pool to carry!] [Talent Pool: Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root, Absolute Rationality!] [Please make your choice!] Hearing this prompt, Jiang Yifeng quickly shifted his thoughts. He stopped thinking about the talent''s use and hesitated over whether to carry "Absolute Rationality." Perhaps because in the previous simtion, Absolute Rationality didn''t lead him to harm his father, Jiang Fushan. Jiang Yifeng was no longer so resistant to the Absolute Rationality talent. After thinking for a long time, Jiang Yifeng made his decision! "No, don''t carry it!" Actually, Jiang Yifeng had originally nned to carry it. After all, drawing the Cmity Tribtion Body talent this time was indeed a bit troublesome. Although the specific effects were unclear, it was definitely a talent that would make people dislike him. It was very likely that after causing amotion, some powerful figure would directly kill him! But he suddenly remembered that in a previous simtion, there was a reminder: carrying Absolute Rationality made it impossible to cultivate the Sword of Killing Intent from the War God Art. This technique required various emotions to drive it, and carrying Absolute Rationality made it impossible to get started!N?v(el)B\\jnn So he thought it would be better not to carry Absolute Rationality. After all, he still wanted to focus on improving his cultivation andbat power. He wanted to cultivate all the battle techniques that could enhance hisbat power, so he would have more cards up his sleeve. The key was that with the simtor''s upgrade, all the techniques he cultivated would be merged into his cultivation. As long as he cultivated them, he could extract them all at onceter. After making his decision, the simtion officially began. [The 29th simtion begins.] [Your extensive simtion experience makes you instantly aware that you are in the simtion.] [On the first day, you think about the potential harm your Cmity Tribtion Body might bring.] [You leave a letter for your family and hastily leave the Jiang Family Mansion, leaving Green Hills City!] [But you don''t know.] [Actually, the moment you entered the simtion, the Heavenly Dao of various realms began to tremble in fear!] [Even the Chaos Dao in the chaos started to shiver.] [They don''t know what has changed.] [But whether it''s the Chaos Dao or the Heavenly Dao of various realms, they are rules and can more easily sense the future.] [At this moment, they have already sensed a world-ending cmity.] [So, they have started to continuously spew out opportunities, trying to nurture someone to face the cmity.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this and twitched his mouth. Isn''t this red talent a bit exaggerated? Even the Chaos Dao is shivering? Is it really that terrifying? However, fortunately, the Heavenly Dao and the Chaos Dao only sensed the cmity. They didn''t know it was caused by him. Since that''s the case, then other Saint realm experts would also find it hard to detect him in the simtion. As expected of a red talent. Although it harms others without benefiting oneself, at least it didn''t bring direct danger to his simted self. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng slightly rxed. He continued to read the text on the simtor. [On the second day, you arrived at the Valley of mes.] [This was a decision you made after careful consideration.] [In your mind, since you have the Cmity Tribtion Body, heading to the Great Wilderness Battlefield should be the best n.] [By then, you couldpletely stay away from the people of the Nine Mystic Realm and cultivate near the Immortal n.] [Send all the cmities to the people of the Immortal n.] [Moreover, in a previous simtion, you had already roughly memorized the path to the Great Wilderness Battlefield through deep simtion.] [You weren''t worried about not finding the Great Wilderness Battlefield and having to stay in the Great Wilderness for too long.] [This n you came up with seemed perfect to you.] [However, after arriving at the Valley of mes, you didn''t immediately leave the Southern Regions.] [Instead, you began toprehend the power ofws contained in the Phoenix''s mes here.] [After all, in your mind,prehending here for a few years shouldn''t cause too much impact on the Southern Regions.] [Let alone affect your family.] [It''s just a bit unfair to the Demonic Phoenix.] [It seems like it has to suffer with you again.] [You even felt a bit guilty about it.] [It seems like among the four fierce beasts guarding the Southern Regions, the Demonic Phoenix is the most pitiful.] [Every time you simte, it seems to be the unluckiest.] [In your heart, you silently said, "Sorry!" and then settled down in the Valley of mes.] [In the following days, you began to use the Taotie Divine Body to devour the Phoenix''s mes every day,prehending thews within.] [In the third month, you sensed a trace of fire power from the Phoenix''s mes.] [It seemed not just the Law of Fire, but also possessed life!] [You instantly understood that it should be the Phoenix''s Nirvana power.] [Actually, the reason you couldprehend this so quickly was rted to your cultivation.] [Previously, when you hadn''t reached the Ancient God realm,prehendingws was likeprehending beyond your level, naturally much more difficult.] [But now, your cultivation has caught up, andprehending variousws again is naturally much smoother and faster.] [Quickly, two years passed.] [You didn''t directlyprehend the Nirvana power.] [But you already roughly understood the principle of the Nirvana power.] [To be precise, the Nirvana power is not a singlew, but a fusion of multiplews and the Phoenix''s spirit.] Chapter 171: Practically tailor-made for you! [Upon receiving this answer, you felt a bit disappointed.] [You canprehend and learn thews; but the Phoenix''s spiritual power, how do you learn that?] [However, you didn''t give up. Even if you couldn''tprehend the power of Nirvana from the Phoenix mes.] [Being able toprehend the Law of Fire and the Law of Life is already excellent.] [In the third year, after giving up on directlyprehending the power of Nirvana, you spent just one year toprehend a trace of the Law of Fire.] [In the fifth year, your understanding of the Law of Fire reached the entry level.] [Several years passed in the blink of an eye.] [In the tenth year, you finallyprehended a trace of the Law of Life from the Phoenix mes.] [In the seventeenth year, your understanding of the Law of Life also reached the entry level.][But this seemed to be the limit.] [Because you felt that the level of the Phoenix mes here was not high enough to support your continuedprehension.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [You knew it was time to leave.] [But you suddenly thought, after more than ten years, the Demonic Phoenix here hadn''t made a single sound.] [You felt something was off.] [You remembered that when you only had the Purple Talent Cmity Physique, the Demonic Phoenix would wail every few days.] [This time you carried the Red Talent Cmity Tribtion Body, how could there be no reaction?] [Could it be dead?] [But it shouldn''t be. If the Demonic Phoenix were dead, the Phoenix mes in this Valley of mes should have extinguished!] [You hurriedly used your Divine Sense to scan the entire Valley of mes to see what had happened to the Demonic Phoenix.] [Soon, you seemed to see something resembling a Phoenix.] [But the color seemed a bit off?] [Why were its feathers ck?] [However, you didn''t think much of it.] [It seemed that the Demonic Phoenix was indeed affected.] [Although it didn''t look as miserable asst time with the Cmity Physique, after all, you didn''t stay as long this time.] [You thought you might have misunderstood the Cmity Tribtion Body.] [Its level is higher than the Cmity Physique, so it might affect stronger beings, not necessarily having greater power!] [Thinking this, you felt more assured.] [So you didn''t bother with the Demonic Phoenix and left the Valley of mes, heading southward to the Great Wilderness.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng was puzzled when he saw this. Something wasn''t right! ording to the initial simtion, the Cmity Tribtion Body should have alerted the Heavenly Dao of various realms, even the Great Dao in chaos. Why did it only have such a small effect on the Demonic Phoenix? For a moment, Jiang Yifeng considered whether to conduct a deep simtion. Should he inform his simted self about the issues shown by the simtor? After thinking for a long time, Jiang Yifeng gave up. Forget it! There''s no need. What good would it do to inform his simted self? After all, the talent of the Cmity Tribtion Body couldn''t be controlled. It would only add unnecessary worry. After figuring this out, he continued to read. [After entering the Great Wilderness, you didn''t linger.] [Instead, you followed the route you memorized from the deep simtion, heading towards the Great Wilderness Battlefield.] [Although you felt that the Cmity Tribtion Body might not be as terrifying as you initially thought, you still felt it would be more satisfying to wreak havoc among the Immortal Realm people!] [In the neenth year, after passing through one teleportation array after another, you finally arrived at the Great Wilderness Battlefield.] [As soon as you appeared, you were surrounded by Xiao Siyuan and a group of powerful beings from the Immortal Realm.] [Xiao Siyuan, a Supreme Unity Golden Immortal, was in charge of logistics at the Great Wilderness Battlefield. Naturally, he had noticed when you used the teleportation array toe here.] [Seeing this situation, you panicked but quickly calmed down.] [After all, you came to kill enemies! What was there to fear?] [You made up excuses and exined for a long time.] [But Xiao Siyuan was unmoved.] [Your actions were restricted.] [ording to Xiao Siyuan, he needed to consult with Commander Lu Xuanqing before deciding how to deal with you.] [In the following days, you were kept under house arrest in the Nine Mystic Realm''s military camp.] [Days passed by.] [A year went by in the blink of an eye.] [But Lu Xuanqing still hadn''t shown up.] [You still couldn''t move freely.] [This made you a bit worried.] [Actually, you weren''t too worried about yourself. After all, from the previous simtions, you could tell that Lu Xuanqing wasn''t a bloodthirsty person.] [As long as you exined clearly to him, you shouldn''t be in any danger.] [At most, you would just go to the battlefield to fight against the Immortal n.] [And this was what you dreamed of.] [After all, you came to the Great Wilderness Battlefield to train your War God Body and Sword of Killing Intent, and to bring the cmity of the Cmity Tribtion Body to the Immortal n.] [So, you were eager to fight against the Immortal n as soon as possible.] [Now, what you were worried about was that your Cmity Physique might negatively affect the soldiers here while you were under house arrest in the camp.] [Although you didn''t know these people before, they were all soldiers defending their homnd.] [You still admired them.] [Two more years passed in the blink of an eye.] [In the twenty-first year, you finally gained your freedom.] [But Lu Xuanqing still didn''te to see you.] [You guessed that he might have observed you from a distance.] [Regaining your freedom, you took a look at the Nine Mystic Realm''s military camp and found nothing unusual.] [Your doubts deepened.] [Could the Red Talent Cmity Tribtion Body be that useless?] [However, it was a good thing that it didn''t affect the soldiers here, so you didn''t mind.] [But you didn''t know that the soldiers here had gradually be more irritable and violent over the years.] [It wasmon for them to self-destruct at the slightest provocation!] [Sometimes, they even did this to their ownrades, not just the enemy!] [But you hadn''t been in the camp for long, so you thought this was normal behavior for soldiers.] [After all, in your view, it was normal for soldiers who had been on the battlefield for a long time to be a bit more irritable!] [In the twenty-second year, after taking on several missions to kill the Immortal n, you left the Nine Mystic Realm''s military camp.] [In the same year, you encountered a five-person team from the Immortal n, all at the Mortal Immortal realm.] [Your eyes lit up as you drew a brand-new sword.] [That''s right, you didn''t use your most proficient Silent Destruction Fist.] [Instead, you chose to start training the Sword of Killing Intent and the War God Body.] [Even though you hadn''t mastered either of these battle techniques, you relied on your Divine Dao cultivation and faced the five-person team with confidence.] [Three minutester, there were five corpses around you.] [But you didn''t pay attention to them. Instead, you looked at your blood-stained sword,prehending the Sword of Killing Intent.] [In an instant, the Sword of Killing Intent reached the entry level.] [Actually, it wasn''t surprising that you could train the Sword of Killing Intent to the entry level so quickly.] [The Sword of Killing Intent is a sword technique that relies on emotional outbursts.] [And you, having gone through several simtions and dying in frustration each time, had long umted countless emotions in your heart.] [It could be said that the Sword of Killing Intent was practically tailor-made for you!] [In the days that followed, you and your sword started a killing spree on the Great Wilderness Battlefield.] Chapter 172: Close the door, harvest! [Year 23, you killed dozens of Mortal Immortal realm experts from the Immortal n.] [Year 24, it seems you chose the wrong direction and didn''t encounter any Immortal n members.] [Year 25, you changed direction and continued searching for isted Immortal n teams.] [This year, your luck seemed to improve, and you encountered several teams from the Immortal n.] [You killed hundreds of Mortal Immortal realm experts from the Immortal n.] [Year 26, you encountered a small team led by an Earth Immortal realm expert for the first time.] [It must be said, Earth Immortal realm experts are much stronger than Mortal Immortal realm ones.] [This battlested two full days before you managed to kill the opponent!] [Although you won, you were not satisfied.][After all, you remembered that in a previous simtion, you could kill Earth Immortal realm experts while still in the Tribtion Crossing realm.] [Now that your cultivation has advanced to the One-Star Ancient God realm, you still can''t instantly kill Earth Immortal realm experts.] [You recalled that in that simtion, you could fight Earth Immortal realm experts because you had cultivated the War God Body and Silent Destruction Fist to an extremely high level.] [Thus, you decided to quickly improve your battle techniques.] [Although cultivation is important, the buff from battle techniques tobat power is also terrifying.] [In previous simtions, you focused on improving your cultivation because it was too weak, and training low-level battle techniques would have been a waste of time.] [Now, your cultivation is not too bad, so you need to quickly address your shorings!] [Battle, battle, battle! In the following days, you were either fighting or on your way to a fight.] [In the blink of an eye, decades passed.] [Year 50, your Sword of Killing Intent reached the minor aplishment stage, and your War God Body also reached the entry level.] [In these years, you didn''t encounter many Earth Immortal realm experts from the Immortal n.] [But the number of Mortal Immortal realm experts you killed is beyond count.] [However, in these years of fighting the Immortal n,] [You noticed that even though the Mortal Immortal realm members knew they were no match for you, they still drew their swords against you one after another!] [You couldn''t help but admire them, even though they were your enemies.] [At this time, your reputation began to spread on the Great Wilderness Battlefield.] [Many people knew that there was a lone wolf in the Nine Mystic Realm, killing enemies on the battlefield despite his low cultivation level!] [After this, more and more Earth Immortal realm experts from the Immortal n started to hunt you on the Great Wilderness Battlefield.] [You secretly rejoiced at this!] [You were worried about not encountering Earth Immortal realm experts from the Immortal n.] [Now, you could kill Mortal Immortal realm experts almost instantly, making them unfit to be your grinding stone for training the War God Body!] [Year 60, your War God Body reached the minor aplishment stage.] [At this point, ordinary Earth Immortal realm experts could only offer their necks to your sword, no longer able to withstand even a single move from you.] [Year 63, while you were ughtering a group of Mortal Immortal realm experts from the Immortal n,] [Another Earth Immortal realm expert from the Immortal n sought you out.] [You thought you could easily take him down.] [But this time, you miscalcted!] [Unexpectedly, this time, it was a Chosen from the Immortal n.] [He had the ability to fight across realms.] [This battlested a full half month, and you barely managed to kill him at the cost of serious injuries!] [This battle made you realize that while you might be invincible against the Immortal n at the same realm,] [Fighting across realms was not guaranteed.] [After all, the Immortal n also had geniuses who could fight across realms.] [Facing these Chosen, fighting across realms was clearly not so easy.] [However, this battle brought you great gains.] [Far more than fighting ordinary Earth Immortal realm experts.] [You discovered that the Chosen from the Immortal n did not use battle techniques stronger than other Earth Immortal realm experts.] [But he hadprehended morews.] [He used and fused thesews more perfectly, incorporating them into his battle techniques.] [This made the Chosen from the Immortal n possess extremely powerfulbat strength.] [You knew that your ability to fight across realms relied on the strength of your Divine Dao and battle techniques.] [You didn''t have more detailed applications than other cultivators.] [So, you noted this down.] [As the saying goes, "When three people walk together, one of them can be my teacher."] [You decided to try this in the future.] [Improving your strength by learning from others is nothing to be ashamed of!]n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om [In the following years, you remained active on the Great Wilderness Battlefield!] [But you found that you encountered fewer and fewer members of the Immortal n.] [Sometimes, you didn''t see a single person for an entire year.] [You felt that this was not a solution, as it severely affected your improvement.] [So, you changed your strategy and stopped pursuingbat training.] [Year 70, you found a cave on the Great Wilderness Battlefield and began a closed-door cultivation.] [You nned to learn from the Chosen of the Immortal n, fusing yourprehension ofws to enhance yourbat strength.] [Besides that, you also needed to continue improving your cultivation.] [Year 80, your Late Bloomer talent triggered, increasing your cultivation efficiency.] [Year 90, the buff from your Late Bloomer talent doubled again.] [Year 180, your Late Bloomer talent stacked to its maximum.] [Once you confirmed that the talent had fully stacked, you activated your umted 30 instances of Inevitable Enlightenment talent!] [Then, you entered a state of enlightenment.] [Unbeknownst to you, the Great Wilderness Battlefield had undergone earth-shattering changes during your closed-door cultivation.] [At this time, the Great Wilderness Battlefield was in chaos.] [Whether from the Nine Mystic Realm or the Immortal Realm, any expert below the Mystic Immortal realm was almost uncontroble.] [They seemed to have lost their senses, killing anyone they saw!] [These people had be puppets driven solely by a desire to kill.] [This was the reason you had difficulty encountering members of the Immortal n.] [Those patrolling or on missions were usually not of high realms, and they were all influenced by your Cmity Tribtion Body, leading to mutual ughter.] [How could you encounter them?] [Of course, you werepletely unaware of all this.] [You continued your closed-door cultivation diligently.] [Time passed bit by bit.] [In the blink of an eye, fifty years had passed.] [At this time, you finally awakened from your state of enlightenment.] [This time, your enlightenmentsted quite a long time.] [However, the gains were substantial.] Chapter 173: World catastrophe, destruction! Talent triggered! [First of all, you sessfully fused the True Meaning of the Killing Dao with the Sword of Killing Intent.] [This elevated your Sword of Killing Intent from the minor achievement stage directly to the major achievement stage.] [In addition, you also tried to fuse the Law of Thunder, the Law of Fire, and the True Meaning of the Killing Dao.] [These twows and one true meaning are extremely vtile, and after you fused them, they became highly unstable.] [However, despite the instability, you discovered that when you unleashed them, their power was exponentially greater than using a singlew.] [So, you arrogantly named this self-created battle technique "Thunder-Fire Strike!"] [Let''s just say, the name is quite concise!] [But as for its true power? Heh!] [Of course, although your self-created battle technique isn''t that powerful,][It must be said that this fusion has made your control over thews much more fluid.] [In battle, you can now seamlesslybine variousws.] [This significantly enhances yourbat capabilities.] [In the 140th year, with your greatly improved strength, you emerged from seclusion, eager to showcase your skills.] [Unfortunately, by this time, the Great Wilderness Battlefield was devoid of any normal human presence.] [Because over the years, the influence of your Cmity Tribtion Body had intensified.] [It had turned even Supreme Unity Golden Immortal realm experts into mindless killing puppets.] [Even many Great Luo realm experts asionally lost control.] [In fact, it wasn''t just the Great Wilderness Battlefield.] [Other ces, even entire realms, had begun to show changes starting from lower-level individuals.] [Notably, in these years, a ck Demonic Phoenix emerged from the Southern Regions.] [This ck Demonic Phoenix wreaked havoc across various realms as soon as it appeared.] [Although it didn''t seem very powerful, its ck mes were difficult for even Saint realm experts to extinguish.] [More importantly, it seemed to possess true immortality.] [Every time it was killed, it would quickly resurrect, bing stronger each time.] [This left the Saints in utter misery!] [And this ck Demonic Phoenix was the very one that had spent twenty years with you in the Valley of mes in the Southern Regions.] [Back then, while you were cultivating by devouring Phoenix mes, the cmity aura from your Cmity Tribtion Body was also nourishing the Demonic Phoenix at close range.] [This caused it to fully mutate.] [You cultivated with its Phoenix mes, and the cmity aura from your body empowered it!] [It allowed the Demonic Phoenix to continuously resurrect and grow stronger using the cmity aura!] [You could say that as long as you don''t die, it won''t die either. In fact, it will grow stronger from the cmity aura you constantly emit!] [Perhaps, this is karma.] [Of course, you were unaware of all this.] [You wandered the Great Wilderness Battlefield for two years, seeing nothing but corpses.] [You were somewhat puzzled.] [However, you didn''t think much of it.] [Since you couldn''t fight to cultivate, you decided to go back into seclusion.] [So, you went into seclusion again.] [Let''s just say, you''re truly a cultivation maniac.] [In the 200th year, you were still in seclusion.] [But the outside world had descended intoplete chaos.] [All realms had entered a state of all-out war.] [All cultivators and mortals were involved.] [This was an apocalyptic cmity.] [Even the Saints were affected.] [In these years, the frequency of holy wars increased.] [The Saints did investigate the cause!] [But they found nothing.] [After all, your red talent, the Cmity Tribtion Body, wasn''t a talent of this world.] [These Saints had never seen it before, so how could they identify it?] [In the 300th year, the Saintspletely lost control.] [The entire world was shattered everywhere.] [The Heavenly Dao of various realms was scattered all over.] [In the 400th year, experts above the Saint realm emerged, trying to stop the catastrophe.] [Unfortunately, it was to no avail.] [Instead, they were besieged by hundreds of Saints.] [In the end, those experts above the Saint realm, knowing they couldn''t change the apocalyptic cmity, fled into the chaos to avoid the world.] [Leaving the Chaos Dao trembling in fear.] [In the 500th year, experts above the Saint realm began to be affected.] [However, they were too powerful. Knowing the cmity had reached them, they joined forces to break through the chaos and escape this world.] [Leaving the Chaos Dao shivering alone.] [In the 600th year, besides you, who were still in seclusion, there were no other living beings in this world.] [No, there was still a ck Demonic Phoenix.] [At this moment, the Demonic Phoenix was right outside your ce of seclusion.] [It seemed to be guarding you!] [In fact, it was precisely because this Demonic Phoenix was guarding you that you could cultivate in peace for so long.] [Of course, this was also why you hadn''t noticed the changes in the outside world.] [Because it never affected you.] [Or rather, any influence that came your way was intercepted by the ck Demonic Phoenix.] [In fact, this was understandable. After all, this Demonic Phoenix mutated because of the cmity aura from your body.] [It knew that if you died, its abilities might disappear.] [So, this was also why it kept guarding and protecting you!] [In the 700th year, the Chaos Dao copsed, and this world began to crumble.] [You, in seclusion, finally sensed something was wrong.] [Unfortunately, it seemed toote.] [Everything was being annihted, and you seemed to have nowhere to escape.] [At this moment, a giant ck Phoenix wrapped its body around you!] [But it was of no use!] [You and the ck Phoenix died together!] [Died in the annihtion of the world.] [However, your souls did not dissipate.] [Instead, they clung to each other, drifting through time and space!] [Yes, not just you, but the soul of the ck Phoenix also did not disappear.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [Let''s just say, the ck Phoenix was truly fortunate.] [Because it wrapped around you in the end, your bodies and souls were too close.] [When your one-time talent "Possession" was triggered, it inadvertently took its soul along.] [Your souls drifted endlessly through time and space.] [You didn''t know how long you would drift or where you would end up.] [Gradually, you seemed to forget who you were.] ¡­¡­ [Suddenly, you seemed to see a beam of light, and you instinctively wanted to move closer to it.] [Time: Three hundred million years ago, you sessfully possessed.] [You became an ordinary disciple of the Xuande Sect on the True Spirit Continent.] [Your current name is Jiang Wucai!] [The soul of the ck Phoenix that was with you also became your pet spirit chicken.] [After sessfully possessing, you rubbed your head, feeling like you had forgotten many things.] [After a long time, you still couldn''t remember.] [In the end, you had to give up.] [However, when you looked at the ck spirit chicken you raised, it seemed particrly familiar, with a sense of closeness.] [So, you upgraded it from a meat chicken to a pet chicken.] Chapter 174: Deep Simulation! Transcription of Techniques [You have sessfully possessed the body. Although you have forgotten many memories, you know you are not Jiang Wucai himself.] [Fortunately, when you possessed the body, you inherited most of Jiang Wucai''s memories.] [Thus, you began a new life on the True Spirit Continent, in the Xuande Sect, under the identity of Jiang Wucai.] [Every day, youplete sect tasks, raise chickens, and farm thend.] [When you have time, you practice the low-grade techniques of the Xuande Sect.] [Life is quite decent!] In reality, Jiang Yifeng felt his brain was somewhat frozen. This possession talent had actually taken him back three hundred million years. Unbelievable!And where is this True Spirit Continent? Another ce he had never heard of. However, what he was most concerned about now was not these things. He was wondering if he had really appeared three hundred million years ago. If that were true. Wouldn''t he be a historical figure? Would he cause changes in history because of his presence? Or would history remain unchanged, but a new timeline would be created? ... Forget it, it''s already a fait apli. He couldn''t change it even if he wanted to. No point in overthinking!n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om Jiang Yifeng thought it would be best to restore his simted self''s memories. If that didn''t work, he should at least pass on the cultivation techniques to his simted self, elerating his cultivation and enhancing his strength. Seeing his simted self still practicing low-grade techniques, it was clear that he had forgotten all the cultivation methods. So, Jiang Yifeng silently chanted. "Start deep simtion for 100 years!" Just now, he suddenly thought that to let his simted self obtain cultivation techniques and spells, deep simtion was necessary. Since that was the case, why not simte for a longer period? After all, if the simtor contained a memory-less version of himself, Jiang Yifeng wouldn''t know what he would do! Aplete deep simtion would allow him to better control the situation. Besides, he wasn''t short on origin values. [Ding, reminder to the host: Due to the extreme temporal distance, your soul power is insufficient to support a 100-year deep simtion.] [If you insist, you will be unable to return to reality! Do you wish to continue?] ... What? What is this? Jiang Yifeng felt that the simtor was deliberately blocking his deep simtion. How could his simted self die and still traverse billions of years for possession and survive? Now he couldn''t even simte for a hundred years? The simtor seemed to sense Jiang Yifeng''s thoughts, and a prompt sounded timely! [Ding, reminder to the host: Your simted self is stronger and possesses the talent "Possession." The key is that he cannot return to the time before possession unless he continues to live!] "Alright! Alright! How long can I deep simte then?" Jiang Yifeng admitted that the simtor had a point. So he chose to ask how long he could deep simte. Since he couldn''t simte indefinitely, he had to send in the key techniques. Otherwise, continuously practicing garbage techniques would waste the simted cultivation time. [Suggestion: The host should not exceed ten days for deep simtion.] Hearing this, Jiang Yifeng immediately spoke. "Then deep simte for ten days!" [Ding, starting deep simtion for ten days, deducting 240 origin values, remaining origin values.] Time ticked away second by second. This time, it took Jiang Yifeng several minutes for his consciousness to descend into the simtion. After confirming he had entered the simtion. Jiang Yifeng immediately began to act. After all, time was limited. He first sensed his current cultivation level. Qi Refining? Alright, since it was possession, Jiang Yifeng tolerated it. Then, Jiang Yifeng began to test whether the talents he had exchanged in the simtion were still there. After testing, he confirmed they were still there. But this did not make him happy. Instead, he felt a bit of panic. After all, because his simted self had no memory. Even if he left the methods to use those talents, he wasn''t sure if his memory-less self would use them after the deep simtion ended. The most crucial thing was that the Cmity Tribtion Body was still there. This talent was passively effective. Wouldn''t that mean this world was also about to end? At this moment, Jiang Yifeng even considered giving up this simtion. If this world only had a few hundred or thousand years left, what level could this Qi Refining body, obtained through possession, reach? Could it surpass his real-world cultivation level? Very unlikely! Actually, Jiang Yifeng wasn''t entirely wrong. After all, ording to his thinking, if he couldn''t surpass his real-world cultivation level, the simted cultivation would be useless as it couldn''t be extracted to reality. But, could this world really onlyst a few hundred or thousand years? Not necessarily! After all, this was aplete world with aplete Dao. It wasn''t like the world three hundred million yearster, which had undergone numerous wars, where the Heavenly Dao was shattered, and the Dao was already quite weak! Unfortunately, Jiang Yifeng''s knowledge didn''t allow him to think of this. However, Jiang Yifeng didn''tpletely give up. In the ten days of deep simtion. He still tried his best to record the Devouring Spirit Art, War God Art, and how to cultivate into the Divine Dao; even the use of some active talents. He left everything for his simted self. But time was really tight. Jiang Yifeng could only record the essential techniques without any mistakes; the rest were roughly noted. Of course, he didn''t write about the Cmity Tribtion Body! He decided to let things take their course. After all, Jiang Yifeng worried that if his memory-less simted self was a saintly figure, he mightmit suicide! Even if this simtion couldn''t surpass his real-world cultivation. Learning about things from three hundred million years ago would still be beneficial! [Ding, deep simtion ended!] In the blink of an eye, ten days passed, and Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness returned to reality. As soon as he returned, he felt a splitting headache. It was as if his soul was being torn apart. At this moment, he finally understood why the simtor didn''t allow him to deep simte for too long. This deep simtion spanning three hundred million years was indeed different from previous experiences. It was much more painful. However, fortunately, his current strength was quite good. He could still endure this painful feeling. He gritted his teeth against the tearing sensation in his soul and looked at the developments in the simtion. [You sit at your small wooden table, feeling a bit confused.] [You remember feeding the chickens just now, so why are you suddenly back in your room?] [And what are those thick books in your hands?] ["Huh?" Why is the ink still wet?] [Curiously, you pick them up and start reading.] [...] [Several dayster, you finish reading all the books.] [While reading those books, you subconsciously used some talents.] [For example, the Eye of Insight! It revealed a lot about the spirit chickens'' origins.] [You know they alle from the sect''s spirit beast farm.] [Only your favorite ck spirit chicken shows a question mark!] Chapter 175: Rapidly improve, closed-door disciple! [Although you don''t know the reason, you realize that the records in these books are actually true!] [You really possess these talents.] [Many thoughts flood your mind.] [You think, perhaps these are the contingencies left by you before your possession!] [It can only be said that someone wasn''t detailed enough during the deep simtion, causing you to misunderstand!] [But if you really want to talk about contingencies, it seems usible!] [Knowing that the talents are real.] [Then those cultivation methods and battle techniques should also be real.] [So, you stop practicing the low-grade techniques of the Xuande Sect.][Instead, you start practicing the War God Art and the Devouring Spirit Art!] [However, because you are just a menial disciple of the Xuande Sect, you have almost no cultivation resources.] [Even after switching techniques, you don''t soar immediately.] [Especially in Martial Dao, progress is quite slow.] [Unknowingly, a year passes.] [Even without any resources, in one year, relying on the Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root and the Devouring Spirit Art, you still advance from the second level of Qi Refining to the third level of Foundation Establishment!] [However, your progress in Martial Dao remains slow, still at the third level of Body Tempering.] [You realize the importance of resources.] [Just in time, you learn that the Xuande Sect will hold a sect-widepetition in a month.] [So, without any hesitation, you sign up.] [This sect-widepetition is actually a selection for disciple promotion!] [You believe that as long as you get promoted to an outer sect disciple, or even an inner sect disciple, you will definitely gain more resources.] [That way, you can improve faster!] [In the blink of an eye, a month passes.] [The Xuande Sect''s sect-widepetition is held as scheduled.] [You first participate in thepetition among the menial disciples.] [Other menial disciples are generally at the second or third level of Qi Refining, the strongest only at the sixth level of Qi Refining.] [But you are already at the fourth level of Foundation Establishment.] [Among these menial disciples, you are unstoppable.] [You easily take first ce and get promoted to an outer sect disciple.] [But you are not satisfied with this.] [You want to continue advancing.] [Because you know that outer sect disciples are generally at the ninth level of Qi Refining, the stronger ones at the first or second level of Foundation Establishment!] [Unfortunately, you don''t have the opportunity this year.] [You can only wait until next year!] [Time flies, and another year passes.] [You sign up for the inner sect disciple assessment on time.] [During this year, because you are already an outer sect disciple, you can receive two Spirit Stones and some Body Tempering Pills from the sect every month!] [This speeds up your cultivation significantly.] [In one year, your Immortal Dao cultivation has reached the perfect ninth level of Foundation Establishment.] [At this moment, you have started to carve the patterns of the Golden Core.] [And your Martial Dao has also reached the ninth level of Body Tempering.] [The inner sect disciple assessment is still a piece of cake for you!] [You easily take first ce and be an inner sect disciple.] [Soon after, a senior brother from the inner sect tells you to change your residence.] [ording to that senior brother, now that you are an inner sect disciple, you have your own courtyard in the inner sect, numbered 9444.] [He tells you to go there with your inner sect disciple token.] [Moreover, you no longer need to do menial tasks like tending the spiritual fields or raising spirit chickens.] [You only need to focus on your cultivation.] [Upon hearing this, you don''t hesitate and head to the inner sect with your spirit chicken, Little ck.] [Arriving at the inner sect, you look at your own courtyard and sense the spiritual energy here, which is indeed much better than your previous residence.] [If you cultivate here, you think your efficiency will at least double.] [This is the benefit of a higher status.] [After that, you start cultivating diligently in courtyard 9444.] [Besides wanting a better life, there seems to be a voice inside you urging you to cultivate desperately.] [You think that might be the obsession from before your possession.] [Moreover, since you underwent possession, you suspect you might have enemies, so you never dare to ck off in your cultivation!] [While you are diligently cultivating, a few high-ranking members of the sect also take notice of you!] [After all, your progress over the past two years has been too remarkable.] [From a worthless menial disciple, you have advanced to the inner sect in just two years.] [Fortunately, the Xuande Sect is a righteous sect, and although the high-ranking members think you have secrets, they don''t force you to reveal them.] [Of course, it might also be because they don''t care.] [After all, how many cultivators don''t have their own opportunities and secrets?] [Time flies, and another year passes.] [It is now the third year since your possession.] [The Xuande Sect''s disciple assessmentpetition begins again.] [You sign up again, this time aiming for the position of a true disciple.] [Unfortunately, you fail this time.] [After thepetition, you only rank 88th.] [There is no way around it; those participating in the true disciple assessment are all at the Core Formation stage.] [You are only at the Foundation Establishment stage, not their match.] [This year, your cultivation hasn''t improved because you have been focusing on carving your Golden Core.] [At this moment, you are only at the perfect Foundation Establishment with a fourth-grade Golden Core.] [Although you also practice Martial Dao, reaching the first level of the Condensing Yuan Realm.] [But it''s still not enough to fight across levels.] [After that, you change your cultivation strategy and stop closing yourself off for cultivation.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [Instead, you start taking on various tasks from the sect.] [Doing tasks not only improves yourbat skills but also earns you cultivation resources.] [This might be the fastest way to improve.] [Another year passes.] [During your tasks, you not only earn task rewards.] [You even stumble upon a small secret realm.] [This grants you thousands of Spirit Stones and some rare treasures.] [Using these resources, your Golden Core carving speed significantly increases.] [And because the treasures you obtained happen to enhance the physical body.] [Your Martial Dao cultivation directly advances to the third level of the Qi Motion Realm.] [This gives yourbat power a qualitative leap.] [In the same year, you finally seed in bing a true disciple with a perfect Foundation Establishment in Immortal Dao and a third level of the Qi Motion Realm in Martial Dao.] [Your excellence finally catches the attention of the sect''s high-ranking members.] [They conduct a five-court trial on you.] [In the end, you exin your rapid progress by saying that your talent might have been misjudged before.] [Initially, the high-ranking members of the Xuande Sect don''t believe you.] [But seeing your earnest exnation, they retest your talent.] [In the end, the Xuande Sect discovers your Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root talent.] [With this talent and a bit of luck, your rapid progress bes reasonable.] [Thus, you are epted as thest disciple of the sect master, Liu Xuande.] [And the elder who initially tested Jiang Wucai''s talent is stripped of his elder position and sentenced to face the wall for eight hundred years at the forbidden Thunder Cliff of the Xuande Sect!] Chapter 176: Divine Dao Causality? [After bing thest disciple of the sect master, your status in the Xuande Sect soared, and you gained more cultivation resources.] [Moreover, you also gained ess to many sect secrets that you were previously unaware of!] [For example, there are secret realms with denser spiritual energy!] [There are alsobat secret realms where many demonic beasts are imprisoned.] [There are even secret realms where time elerates!] [As the sect master''sst disciple, you have the privilege to enter these secret realms once a month.] [This significantly elerated your cultivation speed.] [With abundant resources and unparalleled talent, you managed to upgrade your Golden Core from four lines to ten lines in just over a year.] [You achieved a Ten-Grade Golden Core. At this rate,][You might soon break through from the Foundation Establishment stage to the Core Formation stage with a Twelve-Grade Golden Core, establishing the foundation of the Divine Dao!] [However, after your Golden Core reached ten lines, it became difficult to refine new lines.] [You realized that you might not be able to achieve this through secluded cultivation alone.] [Based on notes left by someone you read before, you understood that to refine more lines on your Golden Core, you need special opportunities to upgrade it to eleven lines.] [Finally, you need to integrate it with Martial Dao to achieve the Twelve-Grade Golden Core, the foundation of the Divine Dao!] [Thus, you left the Xuande Sect, embarking on adventures and seeking opportunities.] [Seasons passed, and five years went by in the blink of an eye!] [You experienced numerous hardships and gained many opportunities, but none helped you refine an Eleven-Grade Golden Core.] [Recently, while exploring another secret realm, you encountered a formidable enemy and were gravely injured, on the brink of death!] [At the critical moment, your spirit chicken, Little ck, forced out its own essence blood for you to consume, saving your life.] [This act by Little ck directly caused a change in your Golden Core, with the eleventh line gradually appearing.] [Shortly after, you began integrating Martial Dao with your Eleven-Grade Golden Core, sessfully achieving a Twelve-Grade Golden Core and breaking through to the Core Formation stage, establishing the Divine Dao!] [Upon your breakthrough, the heavens and earth mourned, and an apocalyptic phenomenon appeared across the entire True Spirit Continent.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng frowned slightly. In previous simtions, his breakthrough to the Core Formation stage with the Divine Dao indeed caused a grand phenomenon. But there was no apocalyptic phenomenon! What''s going on? Could it be because he carries the Cmity Tribtion Body? Of course, what Jiang Yifeng is most worried about now is causing such a hugemotion, and a negative one at that. This won''t directly lead to his demise, right? With a mix of worry and curiosity, Jiang Yifeng continued to look at the simtor! [The phenomenon caused by your breakthrough attracted the attention of countless powerful beings on the True Spirit Continent.] [Some benevolent strong individuals even wanted to take action against you; they wanted to nip the danger in the bud.] [However, a Dao-level powerhouse intervened to stop them, sparing you from disaster.] [This Dao-level powerhouse wasn''t concerned about your life or death.] [Moreover, this level of powerhouse is far stronger than those semi-Dao level beings above the Saint realm in your previous timeline.] [Before your possession, those semi-Dao level powerhouses couldn''t see through your Cmity Tribtion Body and could only flee.] [Now, this Dao-level powerhouse, although he doesn''t know the specific function or name of your Cmity Tribtion Body talent, can vaguely sense the cmity aura on you!] [He sensed that if he were to kill you immediately, the cmity aura on you would explode instantly, causing great harm!] [As for more detailed sensing, he couldn''t achieve it.] [He felt an unknown from you.] [This made him quite curious.] [Logically, at the Dao level, he can even briefly traverse time and space.] [Something unknown to him is very rare.] [So, it''s better for you to stay alive for now.] [He will continue to observe your situation.] [The more he observes you, the more curious he bes, unable to fully see through your Cmity Physique.] [He can''t see your past or future!] [Moreover, you are cultivating the Divine Dao!] [You must know, the Divine Dao is something that ordinary people dare not cultivate; it carries great karma!] [Even a Dao-level powerhouse like him doesn''t want to easily get involved with such karma.] [But you dare to cultivate it?] [Is it ignorance or confidence?] [All these reasons made this Dao-level powerhouse unable to stop being curious about you.] [This series of coincidences led to him temporarily saving you.] [And you are unaware of all this.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng was stunned upon reading this. The Divine Dao carries great karma? Even karma that a Dao-level powerhouse doesn''t want to get involved with? No wonder he always felt something was off. Based on multiple simtions, he already knew that many Saint realm powerhouses were aware of the existence of the Divine Dao. Since they knew about the Divine Dao, they also knew it was stronger! So why wouldn''t they cultivate it? You must know, cultivating the Divine Dao requires talent and opportunities. But the talent and opportunities don''t seem as demanding as imagined! After all, he himself cultivated the Divine Dao using the opportunity of a dragon egg, heavenly thunder, and hundreds of years of simtion time. But thinking carefully, if the talent is sufficient, does it still require that much time? Not really, he took so long because his talent wasn''t enough. Just like in this simtion, after possessing Jiang Wucai, with sufficient talent, it didn''t take much time to refine a Ten-Grade Golden Core. And the Eleven-Grade Golden Core did involve some luck. But that was because he didn''t seek help from the sect. If it were a major power, would it be that hard to find a Demonic Dragon or Demonic Phoenix? Dragon eggs and phoenix blood might be hard for ordinary people to obtain. But for families with Saint realm members? No, even for families with Immortal realm members, it''s not that hard to obtain. Once an Eleven-Grade Golden Core is refined, Then, by cultivating Martial Dao before the Core Formation stage, and merging Immortal Dao and Martial Dao during Core Formation, one can establish the foundation of the Divine Dao. So, if one truly wants to cultivate the Divine Dao, it''s not that hard for the chosen ones from powerful forces! He was puzzled before! Now Jiang Yifeng finally understood. It turns out it''s not that the Divine Dao is hard to cultivate, but that everyone is afraid. "Alright, alright, so everyone''s ying it safe, and I''m the only true warrior!"N?v(el)B\\jnn At this moment, Jiang Yifengughed in exasperation. But now he wasn''t as afraid. As the saying goes, when you owe a lot, you stop worrying. He''s already facing a heap of dangers. One more doesn''t matter. He just doesn''t know when the karma of cultivating the Divine Dao will descend. Jiang Yifeng knew that overthinking was useless. He could only simte more diligently. Strive to be stronger before the crisis of cultivating the Divine Dao arrives. After a brief contemtion, Jiang Yifeng continued to look at the simtor. He wanted to see if he could figure out the dangers of cultivating the Divine Dao from this simtion. Chapter 177: Divine Martial Continent" reappears! [Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, two hundred years have passed!] [You have sessfully broken through to the One-Star Ancient God realm, and various battle techniques have reached the minor achievement stage.] [After all, on the True Spirit Continent, you haven''t been in seclusion for bitter cultivation but have been constantly honing yourself.] [This has had a very strong effect on the improvement of your battle techniques.] [At this moment, you are already a renowned Chosen on the True Spirit Continent.] [Because you cultivate the Divine Dao, no one in the same realm is your match.] [Over the years, the people on the True Spirit Continent seem to have be increasingly belligerent.] [The Dao-level expert who has been observing you has also noticed this situation.] [He knows that this belligerent factor is spreading from you.][However, he still hasn''t intervened, because this bit of belligerence can''t really affect the world.] [On the contrary, it can lead to morebat exchanges among the Chosen, promoting everyone''s progress!] [The perspective of a Dao-level expert is indeed extraordinary.] [He even thought of using your Cmity Tribtion Body to promote the progress of the Chosen on the True Spirit Continent.] [Actually, this was three hundred million years ago.] [If it were now, the cmity aura on you wouldn''t cause just a minor impact.] [In the blink of an eye, another five hundred years have passed.] [Your cultivation has reached the Two-Star Ancient God realm, and various battle techniques have made progress.] [Five hundred years to advance by one realm may seem slow.] [But that''s not the case; the higher the realm, the slower the progress.] [Not to mention you are cultivating the Divine Dao; even those cultivating the Immortal Dao, after reaching the Mortal Immortal realm, need thousands to tens of thousands of years to break through to the Earth Immortal stage!] [So, breaking through to the Two-Star Ancient God realm in five hundred years makes you a genius among geniuses.] [And in the year you broke through to the Two-Star Ancient God realm,] [The Dao-level expert who had been secretly observing you finally sensed something wrong!] [Because the cmity aura on you had increased.] [Before reaching the Ancient God realm, even if you advanced in cultivation, the cmity aura on you didn''t change much in his perception.] [But this time, when you broke through to the Two-Star Ancient God realm, the cmity aura on you actually increased.] [If this continues, he feels you might indeed bring an apocalyptic disaster to the True Spirit Continent.] [In the end, that Dao-level expert lost the desire to continue observing you.] [Compared to his curiosity, he was more worried about the future of the True Spirit Continent!] [So, that Dao-level expert first used a Divine Ability to observe your future again, hoping to find a simple solution.] [Unfortunately, it was still futile.] [He then used the Dao of Calction to predict the impact of killing you.] [The result was that after your death, the cmity aura on you would cause 99% of the people in the True Spirit Realm to lose control and go mad!] [Obviously, dealing with you couldn''t be done simply.] [However, that Dao-level expert wasn''t flustered.] [Since there was no simple solution, he decided to take a moreplex approach.] [After that, the Dao-level expert took out a map of realms!] [It clearly recorded: True Spirit Continent, Divine Martial Continent, Demonic God Continent.] [After taking a nce, the Dao-level expert appeared directly in front of you, grabbed you, and headed towards the boundary wall of the Demonic God Continent.] [The True Spirit Continent is indeed vast; even a Dao-level expert couldn''t reach it in the blink of an eye.] [Not long after, when the Dao-level expert arrived at the boundary wall with you, before he could make a move, the barrier of this world''s Dao automatically opened.] [This made the Dao-level expert''s face darken!] [What does this mean? In the past, he had to open the barrier himself to borrow the way out!]n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [Now, with you in tow, the Dao actually opened the door directly, making him feel a bit embarrassed.] [Of course, he also understood that the Dao probably sensed your danger, hence the special treatment.] [He looked at the void, snorted coldly at the Dao, expressing his dissatisfaction, and then threw you out of the boundary wall!] ["Go wreak havoc on the Demonic God Continent!" This was the Dao-level expert''s current thought.] [In his view, as long as you are not on the True Spirit Continent, there would be no problem.] [After all, since ancient times, the True Spirit Continent, Divine Martial Continent, and Demonic God Continent have not been in the same world.] [There are boundary walls between the continents, and they are separated by chaos!] [Even the Dao is not the same!] [So, as long as you are thrown out of the True Spirit Continent, the crisis is resolved.] [And it can also give that Dao-level Demonic God he dislikes a bit of trouble!] [One has to admit, a Dao-level expert is indeed a Dao-level expert.] [The way he solves problems is numerous!] [With one move, he easily resolved most of the crisis in the True Spirit Realm.] [Why do we say most of it?] [Because there is a ck spirit chicken that seems to still be on the True Spirit Continent, unnoticed.] [Including the time before possession, it has been with you for over a thousand years.] [The cmity aura on it has also thickened to a terrifying degree.] [In fact, pure cmity aura is not so easily noticed.] [You were noticed because when you broke through the Core Formation stage, you caused exaggerated apocalyptic phenomena.] [That led to you being noticed by the Dao-level expert from the beginning.] [But Little ck, the Demonic Phoenix, hasn''t been as ostentatious as you.] [So, no one has paid attention to it!] [Perhaps, when it starts to show off, it will be the time for the True Spirit Continent to suffer.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng had just emerged from his thoughts about the causality of cultivating the Divine Dao. Another issue that he couldn''t help but ponder appeared. Divine Martial Continent! This name, which had appeared in simtions long ago, appeared once again. But it was three hundred million years ago. In all the simtions, except for that one time he used the Death Substitute Doll to appear on the Divine Martial Continent, he had never seen this name again. Why has this name never appeared in so many simtions? The Nine Mystic Realm and the Immortal Realm, even the Myriad Demon Realm, are all described as realms. The Divine Martial Continent, this name doesn''t actually match the various realms of the present world. Does the Divine Martial Continent really exist in reality? Previously, Jiang Yifeng hadn''t thought much about it. But now that this name appeared three hundred million years ago. Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but have some doubts about it. Chapter 178: New pet, Little White Of course, Jiang Yifeng was merely suspicious. The information he currently had was not enough to draw any conclusions! He thought that in future simtions, if given the chance, he must try to leave the Nine Mystic Realm. He wanted to see how many realms were left outside of the Immortal Realm and the Nine Mystic Realm. Was there a Divine Martial Continent? After all, in his previous simtion, he had some vague memories from returning from the Divine Martial Continent, which had always puzzled him. He was now filled with curiosity about the Divine Martial Continent. After pondering for a moment, Jiang Yifeng looked at the simtor. [You are currently quite confused!][Who was that powerful being?] [Why did they throw you into this chaos?] [That''s right, after being thrown into the Demonic God Continent, you didn''tnd directly.] [Instead, you found yourself in a chaotic space, needing to traverse through it to enter the Demonic God Continent.] [However, you don''t have time to think about that now.] [Although you don''t know why that powerful being did what they did.] [You know that chaos is extremely dangerous.] [Your current strength can barely allow you to survive in chaos.] [But if you encounter a powerful chaotic creature, you could easily perish.] [You don''t realize that your worries are somewhat unnecessary.] [When you were thrown into the Demonic God Continent.] [The Dao of this ce had already started to be uneasy.] [Although chaotic creatures don''t have much intelligence, living in chaos makes them the closest beings to the Dao.] [They are the most sensitive to changes in the Dao.] [So, those chaotic creatures in the Demonic God Continent, sensing the unease of the Dao, had long since hidden away, trembling in fear.] [Time passed bit by bit.] [After more than a year, younded on the Demonic God Continent without any danger.] [Seeing thepletely unfamiliar continent, you had no idea where you were!] [You decided to find a city to gather information, hoping to return to the Xuande Sect as soon as possible.] [That''s right, you still didn''t know you were no longer on the True Spirit Continent.] [After all, the True Spirit Continent is vast, encountering unfamiliar ces seemed normal, and you never thought you were on another continent.] [Of course, the most important thing is, you didn''t know there were other continents outside the True Spirit Continent.] [Actually, it''s not just you; those without enough knowledge are unaware of this issue!] [In the blink of an eye, five years passed.] [During these five years, you didn''t find a human city, not even a single human figure!] [All this time, you encountered nothing but demonic beasts.] [Actually, this is normal, considering this is the Demonic God Continent.] [Finding humans here is almost as difficult as ascending to immortality!] [Humans are extremely rare on the Demonic God Continent!] [Except for Dao-level or half-Dao-level experts who might have human pets bought from other continents, it''s almost impossible to find other humans here.] [At this point, you finally started to sense something was wrong.] [You guessed that you might no longer be on the True Spirit Continent.] [So, you stopped deliberately searching for human cities.] [You built a small house in a picturesque ce and secluded yourself for cultivation.] [Years passed by.] [One day, you sensed a great battle in the distance.] [Using the Eye of Insight from afar, you discovered two Golden Immortal stage demonic beasts fighting.] [You frowned slightly; their strength could pose a danger to you.] [Should you retreat?] [In the end, you chose to observe from a distance without immediately fleeing.] [You thought that if they both got severely injured, you might be able to benefit.] [So, you used your magic to protect your small house from copsing due to the ground shaking.] [Then you calmly began to watch the battle from afar.] [The battle grew more intense.] [Many demonic beasts living in the area started to flee due to the battle.] [A few dayster, a small white tiger fled to your secluded ce.] [Seeing your wooden house standing firm amidst the battle''s aftermath, it cleverly ran into your home.] [You, who were watching the battle, saw the tiger meat delivered to your door and began to ponder whether to braise or steam it.] [However, the little white tiger didn''t notice your gaze.] [Instead, it affectionately wagged its tail beside you!] [The little white tiger''s background was not ordinary.] [It came from the White Tiger n, which had a half-Dao-level ancestor.] [So it had seen humans before.] [Those humans were pets bought by the White Tiger n from other continents.] [Of course, just seeing humans wouldn''t make the little white tiger so affectionate towards you.] [The reason it behaved this way.] [Was because it was special.] [The little white tiger was originally a direct descendant of the White Tiger n, but it didn''t inherit the n''s divine abilities.] [It couldn''t even cultivate the White Tiger n''s techniques.] [After these issues were confirmed, the little white tiger was abandoned by its n.] [Since then, it had never seen its parents again.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [It was cared for by an elderly human pet.] [But not long ago, the human pet that cared for it passed away.] [So, the little white tiger, barely over a year old, had no rtives and started wandering around.] [Until just now, it encountered the great battle and saw you.] [The moment it saw you were human, it immediately thought of the human pet that cared for it.] [In its limited knowledge, humans were its family.] [So, it behaved so affectionately towards you!] [Of course, you knew nothing of this.] [But seeing the little white tiger being so affectionate towards you.] [Your heart softened a bit, and you started to miss Little ck.] [Since you broke through to the Core Formation stage, Little ck had been recuperating in the sect after feeding you its essence blood.] [You hadn''t seen it for a long time!] [You nced at the little white tiger.] [Suddenly, you thought, why not keep another pet?] [If it doesn''t be tame, you can consider braising itter.] [n approved!] [The little white tiger was taken in by you, and you named it Little White.] [In the blink of an eye, two months passed.] [The two Golden Immortal stage demonic beasts from the previous battle had a decisive oue, one dead and one severely injured!] [At the critical moment, youunched a sneak attack and harvested the physical bodies of the two Golden Immortal stage demonic beasts.] [After that, your days returned to peace.] [Only now, your life included a diligent little white tiger.] Chapter 179: Chaos Breaks Out on the Demonic God Continent! [In the blink of an eye, three more years passed.] [You watched Little White Tiger diligently practicing its pounce and shook your head slightly!] [Little White Tiger trained hard every day, but its cultivation level didn''t improve at all.] [You thought it might be because it didn''t have a proper cultivation technique.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [So, you ced the Devouring Spirit Art in front of it!] [You told it to learn from this.] [Little White Tiger was very smart. Although it couldn''t speak humannguage yet, it instantly understood your intention.] [After that, Little White Tiger began to cultivate the Devouring Spirit Art.] [However, this technique still seemed to be of no use to it.][In the blink of an eye, another two years passed, and Little White Tiger''s cultivation level still hadn''t increased much.] [Seeing this, you felt puzzled.] [Could it be that human cultivation techniques are not suitable for demonic beasts?] [Actually, your guess was right.] [But you didn''t know that.] [Seeing Little White Tiger so eager to cultivate,] [You then taught it the War God Art, hoping it might be useful.] [Initially, you were just trying it out.] [But to your surprise, Little White Tiger seemed very suited to cultivating the War God Art.] [After it started cultivating this technique, its cultivation level began to soar.] [It was like a blind cat stumbling upon a dead mouse.] [Martial Dao indeed suited Little White Tiger''s cultivation.] [After all, Martial Dao was originally derived from humans learning and summarizing the techniques of various fierce beasts.] [But in fact, demonic beasts are most suited to cultivating their own bloodline divine abilities.] [However, since Little White Tiger couldn''t cultivate its own divine abilities, Martial Dao was indeed its best choice for now!] In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this and had an unbelievable thought. No way, no way! The War God Art of the White Tiger n was taught by him? Was he the peerless expert Wu Youdao mentioned? But that couldn''t be right! Even if he did teach the War God Art to the White Tiger n in this simtion, his strength in this simtion wasn''t that of a peerless expert, right? At most, he was just a slightly bigger ant. Jiang Yifeng frowned, feeling uncertain. Because he suddenly remembered that Wu Youdao said he didn''t know who that expert was! Could it really be him? Was he just glorified by the White Tiger n? So they called him a peerless expert? In the end, Jiang Yifeng still felt unsure. But he thought the simtor might give him an answer. If, after this, Little White Tiger returned to the White Tiger n or started a new lineage, then it was highly likely that the War God Art was indeed taught to the White Tiger n by him in this simtion. If not, then it would still be up for debate. So, Jiang Yifeng eagerly continued to look at the simtor. [Years of cultivation passed in the blink of an eye, and a hundred years went by!] [Your cultivation reached the mid-stage of the Two-Star Ancient God Realm, and your other battle techniques also made progress.] [Meanwhile, Little White Tiger had already reached the One-Star Martial Saint Realm.] [In Martial Dao, a Martial Saint corresponds to the Mortal Immortal Realm in Immortal Dao.] [But after reaching the Martial Saint Realm, there are no more detailed divisions.] [Because, after reaching the Martial Saint Realm, it''s no longer about simply enhancing the physical body.] [It''s about capturingws and devouring them to refine into oneself!] [This is fundamentally different from Immortal Dao.] [In Immortal Dao, oneprehendsws and borrows them.] [In Martial Dao, it''s purely about devouring.] [This is somewhat simr to your Taotie Divine Body!] [With eachw devoured and refined, the physical body strengthens further, and one gains strong resistance to thatw.] [A Martial Saint who has refined onew is called a One-Star Martial Saint.] [Of course, it''s worth mentioning that thews devoured and refined upon first entering the Martial Saint Realm are usually the most basic and superficial ones.] [As one progresses, they refine strongerws.] [In theory, Martial Dao can devour and refine allws.] [So, theoretically, the advancement of a Martial Saint is limitless.] [It can be said that the Martial Saint Realm is the pinnacle of Martial Dao.] [Therefore, the strength gap within the Martial Saint Realm can be enormous.] [However, generally, those who have devoured and refined over a hundredws are called Martial Emperors.] [And those who have devoured and refined over a thousandws are called Martial Ancestors!] [Martial Dao is indeed a domineering cultivation method.] [But this cultivation method is also extremely dangerous.] [Of course, if one can truly devour allws to the extreme, they would be incredibly powerful, even capable of crushing Immortal Dao.] [However, all of this is still a notch below your Divine Dao.] [After all, Divine Dao includes Martial Dao, but you firstprehend and then devour and refine.] [Not only can you strengthen yourself, but you can also borrow thews of the world.] Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng felt that this didn''t seem to be part of the simtion. It felt more like the simtor was exining the differences between Immortal Dao, Martial Dao, and Divine Dao to him. But Jiang Yifeng indeedcked this knowledge. He quickly noted all of this down. Then he continued to watch the development in the simtion! [Little White Tiger, having reached the One-Star Martial Saint Realm, could now speak humannguage.] [These days, you noticed it was somewhat silent, as if something was on its mind!] [Caring for your pet, you asked it the reason.] [After much hesitation, Little White Tiger told you: "It wants to return to its n."] [It said it wanted to tell all its kin that it wasn''t a waste!] [Over the years, you had already learned about Little White Tiger''s background.] [Hearing this, you naturally understood its thoughts.] [Indeed, how could a Little White Tiger, driven out of its family at just over a year old, not hold any resentment!] [You didn''t stop it, only telling Little White Tiger that your ce would always be its home.] [Little White Tiger left.] [As it left, it grinned and told you: it woulde back to find you, you would always be its family!] [Decades passed.] [You still lived in seclusion, cultivating in the same ce.] [But during your cultivation, you asionally captured some demonic beasts to inquire about Little White Tiger''s news.] [You learned that after returning to its n, Little White Tiger challenged and defeated the n''s Chosen.] [At this point, Little White Tiger had gained the White Tiger n''s attention and became a Holy Son-level figure.] [Moreover, you also learned from those demonic beasts that Little White Tiger''s transformation was due to a supreme cultivation technique taught by a mysterious peerless expert!] [Hearing this, you just shook your head and smiled!] [There was no peerless expert; Little White Tiger probably made up an excuse to prevent others from probing into your affairs!] [Besides this, over the years, the Demonic God Continent had begun to see frequent battles among great demons.] [In fact, this had started happening long ago.] [But since the demonic races were naturally belligerent, no one had paid much attention before.] [However, this time was different, as even demon saints at the Saint Realm had joined the fray.] Chapter 180: The Gluttonous Beast of Vanity "Even though the demonic beasts are naturally belligerent, once they reach the Saint realm, they can control their aggressive tendencies!" "Unless it''s a matter of life and death, Saint realm demonic beasts won''t easily start a fight." "So, when the Saint realm demon saints began to brawl," "The Dao-level experts on the Demonic God Continent knew they couldn''t keep pretending anymore." "In fact, the moment you arrived on the Demonic God Continent, the Dao-level experts here sensed it." "After all, you were thrown here by a Dao-level expert from the True Spirit Continent." "They don''t get along, so how could the experts here not notice when you were thrown onto their turf?" "But the Dao-level demon god was very arrogant." "It thought that if it could let you stay on the Demonic God Continent for a while without causing too much trouble,""Then it could one-up the Dao-level expert from the True Spirit Continent and gain some face." "So, it didn''t bother with you." "But now it knows it can''t let you be anymore." "Otherwise, the Demonic God Continent will really fall into chaos." "That''s right, the Dao-level demon god on the Demonic God Continent isn''t panicking yet." "It believes everything is still under its control." "After all, it''s not just any demonic beast." "Who is it?" "It''s the Gluttonous Beast, known for devouring everything, and it''s a Dao-level Divine Beast!" "It has the confidence to clean up the mess." "It believes that the cmity energy on you will eventually be its nourishment!" "While you were cultivating, the Dao-level demon god of the Demonic God Continent suddenly appeared before you." "It nced at you casually, then transformed into its true form." "A colossal Gluttonous Beast appeared, opened its massive mouth, and swallowed you in one gulp." "Afterward, it even burped!" "It thought it was incredibly easy." "Inside the Gluttonous Beast''s stomach, there''s a vast space, and you didn''t die immediately after being swallowed!" "Confused, you wondered what was happening." "How did you end up getting eaten by a giant beast while peacefully cultivating at home?" "You tried to break out of the Gluttonous Beast''s body to escape!" "But clearly, it was to no avail." "After all, the opponent is a Dao-level demon god." "With no sess, you could only wait for death inside the Gluttonous Beast''s stomach." "Years passed." "Unknowingly, youprehended a sliver of the Law of Devouring while inside the Gluttonous Beast''s stomach!" "Meanwhile, outside, the Dao-level Gluttonous Beast was affected by your Cmity Tribtion Body after devouring you." "It became increasingly gluttonous, wanting to take a bite out of everything it saw." "In the blink of an eye, a hundred years passed, and the Dao-level Gluttonous Beast devoured arge number of demonic beasts on the Demonic God Continent." "Gradually, the Dao-level Gluttonous Beast seemed unsatisfied with just eating demonic beasts." "It began to devour the chaos and Daows of the Demonic God Continent!" "Eventually, it reached the edges of the Demonic God Continent." "It started to devour the Dao barriers between the Demonic God Continent, the True Spirit Continent, and the Divine Martial Continent." "The changes in the Dao-level Gluttonous Beast also caught the attention of the Dao-level experts from the True Spirit Continent and the Divine Martial Continent." "After investigating, the Dao-level expert from the True Spirit Continent sighed inwardly." "He hadn''t expected that even the Gluttonous Beast couldn''tpletely eradicate the cmity energy of the Cmity Tribtion Body."n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om "That''s right, he had initially chosen to throw you onto the Demonic God Continent instead of the Divine Martial Continent." "Not only because he didn''t get along with the Gluttonous Beast on the Demonic God Continent," "But also because he thought the Gluttonous Beast might be able to resolve the crisis of your Cmity Tribtion Body." "After all, the Gluttonous Beast''s devouring ability was quite formidable, something he himself didn''t possess." "But now it seems that the Gluttonous Beast had failed." "So, the Dao-level expert from the True Spirit Continent sent word to the Dao-level expert from the Divine Martial Continent." "Inviting him to join forces to suppress the Gluttonous Beast, awaken it, and together resolve this cmity!" "The Dao-level expert from the Divine Martial Continent also understood the gravity of the situation." "If the Dao-level Gluttonous Beastpletely lost control, it would indeed be an apocalyptic disaster; thus, he didn''t refuse." "A Dao-level battle was about to unfold?" "No, it didn''t happen!" "The Gluttonous Beast hadn''t gonepletely mad. When the two Dao-level experts appeared to stop it," "It realized something was wrong." "Just as it was about to spit you out to protect itself," "The other two Dao-level experts proposed that the three of them join forces topletely annihte you inside the Gluttonous Beast." "Originally, the Dao-level Gluttonous Beast wanted to refuse." "But the other two kept insisting that the only way to solve the problem of your Cmity Tribtion Body without affecting the world was inside the Gluttonous Beast." "For a moment, the Dao-level Gluttonous Beast felt a bit smug." "Indeed, among the three Dao-level experts, it was the most impressive." "Without it, no one could solve the problem of your physique." "So, it arrogantly agreed." "And you lost the chance to escape danger." "The three Dao-level experts began to work together to suppress your Cmity Tribtion Body''s talent." "They wanted to gradually suppress and obliterate it, ultimately killing you inside the Gluttonous Beast." "One must admit, Dao-level experts are indeed powerful." "With the three of them working together, they actually managed to suppress some of your Cmity Tribtion Body." "In the blink of an eye, another hundred years passed." "While these Dao-level experts were jointly suppressing your Cmity Tribtion Body''s talent," "The True Spirit Continent and the Demonic God Continent had already fallen intoplete chaos." "The cmity energy you left behind was enough to drive the people on these two continents mad." "Especially the True Spirit Continent, which was even more chaotic due to the presence of the spirit chicken, Little ck (ck Phoenix)." "At this time, the Dao barriers of these two continents were tacitly opened by the Dao." "In the Dao''s view, since it couldn''t assimte the cmity energy you left behind," "It decided to let this cmity energy dilute and flow into the unaffected Divine Martial Continent." "This movepletely opened the channels between the three continents." "And the people of the True Spirit Continent and the Demonic God Continent, influenced by your cmity energy, became extremely aggressive." "A chaotic war that swept across the three continents thus began." "And you knew nothing of this." "Not just you, even those Dao-level experts were unaware." "Because they were still fully focused on suppressing your Cmity Tribtion Body." "During this process, the Dao-level Gluttonous Beast felt its strength declining and experienced considerable pain." "Too proud to admit it, it silently vowed never to eat recklessly again." "Especially human-shaped creatures, which it now found repulsive at the mere sight of them!" Chapter 181: Verification is impossible to verify! [And you, have been trapped inside the stomach of the Gluttonous Beast for a hundred years.] [Despite having various talents to keep you alive, you can no longer hold on.] [Your consciousness is bing increasingly blurred!] [Shortly after, a massive burst of cmity energy erupts within the Gluttonous Beast.] [You died! At the age of 720! (Age after possession not counted)] [Simtion ends!] [For this simtion, the host can redeem two rewards.] [Cmity Tribtion Body (Talent), Cultivation.] [Cmity Tribtion Body (Talent)]: Price 10,000 origin values. (Note: Dangerous, extremely dangerous, use with caution; rmended to ce directly into the talent pool.)[Cultivation]: Price 3,000,000 origin values. (Includes cultivation at the peak of the Two-Star Ancient God realm, variousprehendedws, and several battle techniques.) Jiang Yifeng looked at the rewards from this simtion. There were only two, and he didn''t need to think much. "Choose the talent and cultivation!" After making his choice, Jiang Yifeng, worried it might not be safe, quickly added. "ce the Cmity Tribtion Body directly into the talent pool." In truth, if he had other choices, Jiang Yifeng wouldn''t have chosen this talent. Because in reality, it''s practically unusable. Even in the simtion, its effectiveness is questionable. After all, without this talent, he might have been able to stay in seclusion longer before the possession, thus improving more. This talent, to put it bluntly, is ast resort. If faced with an unsolvable problem, it might be used to break the deadlock. [Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining the Cmity Tribtion Body (Talent), deducting 10,000 origin values, remaining origin values. (Note: ced in the talent pool)] [Ding, host''s cultivation sessfully obtained, deducting 3,000,000 origin values, remaining origin values.] As soon as the simtor''s electronic voice fell silent. Jiang Yifeng immediately felt his cultivation continuously rising. Unlike before. This time, many insights appeared out of thin air in his mind. He knew those were theprehensions ofws and improvements in battle techniques. Initially, Jiang Yifeng thought it was just an infusion of knowledge. At first, he worried that such an improvement might make it difficult for him to control reasonably. But soon, he realized he was overthinking. Because, not only were there insights. Gradually, memories of practicing battle techniques andprehendingws in the simtion also appeared in his mind. This feeling was like... It was like these things originally belonged to him, and he just remembered them now. After a long time, Jiang Yifeng finished his enhancement. At this moment,pared to before the simtion, he felt a qualitative improvement. But without aparison, he couldn''t estimate urately. So, he quickly opened his personal panel. He wanted to check his specific strength. [Host: Jiang Yifeng.] [Orange Talents: Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root, Heaven Rewards Diligence, Taotie Divine Body, Late Bloomer, Pill Dao Saint Hand, Mortal Domain, Inevitable Enlightenment.] [Purple Talents: Eye of Insight, Formation Dao Genius, Yimu Divine Body, Love Saint, Child of Fortune, Random Enlightenment.] [Divine Dao Cultivation: Peak of Two-Star Ancient God.] [Secondary Cultivation: Ninth-Grade Formation Master.] [Main Cultivation Techniques: Devouring Spirit Art (Immortal Dao), War God Art (Martial Dao)] [Practiced Techniques: Wind Chasing Art (Perfected), Silent Destruction Fist (Great Aplishment), War God Body (Minor Aplishment), Sword of Killing Intent (Peak of Minor Aplishment), Thunder-Fire Strike (Initial Creation).] [Laws and Mysteries: True Meaning of the Killing Dao (Perfected), Law of Thunder (Minor Aplishment), Law of Wind (Minor Aplishment), Law of Fire (Minor Aplishment), Law of Life, Law of Devouring...] [Possessions: None.] [Combat Power Rating in the Same Realm: 6 stars; (Note: Full score is ten stars.)] [Summary: An ordinary Divine Dao cultivator, your power ofws is diverse but not refined; your battle techniques are profound but few in number,cking trump cards!] Looking at his personal panel. Jiang Yifeng nodded in satisfaction. Not bad, hisbat power rating finally passed! From a rookie to an ordinary Divine Dao cultivator. Each simtion brought a bit of progress, and a ten-starbat power rating was within reach. Having roughly estimated his strength. Jiang Yifeng directly closed the personal panel. He began to recall the various information brought by this simtion. In fact, before the possession, there wasn''t much to summarize. It was mostly seclusion. But after the possession. Jiang Yifeng felt it was worth pondering. He appeared three hundred million years ago, does this mean he influenced the past? At first, he thought it might be a parallel world. Butter, the appearance of Little White Tiger, and him teaching Little White Tiger the War God Art. All these seemed to correspond with the origin of the War God Art in the White Tiger n. After all, the simtion showed that Little White Tiger fabricated a lie to avoid trouble for him, iming that a peerless expert taught it the War God Art. But if that''s the case? Where did the War God Art originallye from? It couldn''t have appeared out of thin air, right? Jiang Yifeng felt his brain was not enough. This seemed to fall into a time paradox. Jiang Yifeng began to ponder deeply. He calcted the timeline of the War God Art''s appearance. 1. He encountered Wu Youdao in the simtion and obtained the War God Art. 2. The simtion ended, and he exchanged for the War God Art from the simtor. 3. He taught the War God Art to Little White Tiger three hundred million years ago. 4. Little White Tiger passed the War God Art to the White Tiger n. "Huh!" Jiang Yifeng was stunned, the War God Art seemed to have appeared out of nowhere. Because, in reality, he exchanged for the War God Art from the simtor! He suddenly had a bold idea. If the simtor always had the War God Art, wouldn''t that make sense? It just found a reason for him to exchange for it?n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om If this hypothesis holds. Then can the timeline be disrupted? Could it be. 1. He first exchanged for the War God Art from the simtion. 2. He went back three hundred million years and taught the War God Art to Little White Tiger. 3. Little White Tiger passed the War God Art to the White Tiger n. 4. He encountered Wu Youdao in the simtion and obtained the War God Art. If so, it seems usible. But starting from the future to influence the past, is that possible? In the end, he shook his head. This hypothesis seemed too bold. Afterward, he thought of many other possibilities. Suppose, his simtion was not just a simtion? But something that actually happened before. He just experienced it again? ... Moreover, Jiang Yifeng thought, everything before was conducted in the simtion. In reality, besides confirming the existence of the Immortal Arrival Sect in the Southern Regions. And Wu Youdao having the opening "Nameless Technique" of the War God Art. Other things, in reality, he couldn''t determine if they truly existed. Suppose the simtion was not an absolute reality? Then wouldn''t many paradoxes not exist? ... After a long time, Jiang Yifeng rubbed his forehead. There were many possibilities. But they all needed him to verify. This verification couldn''t just be in the simtion. It also needed to be confirmed in reality. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng spread his hands. "Screw it, who cares what the truth is, I don''t want to know!" He didn''t want to think anymore. Paradox or not. Verifying in reality was impossible. If he encountered danger in reality, wouldn''t that be the end? Chapter 182: The True Usage of Meek Person Jiang Yifeng realized that with his current cultivation, it was impossible to verify his suspicions in reality. If he truly wanted to uncover the truth, he would need to wait until he was stronger and had the ability to protect himself. After understanding all this, he stopped pondering over the previous simtion and turned his attention back to the simtor. At this moment, he still had one simtion opportunity left. Since he was certain there was no rush to explore the truth now, Jiang Yifeng decided not to hurry into a cross-time simtion. So, he decided to continue simting! With this thought, he silently chanted, "Start the simtion!" [One simtion opportunity consumed, remaining opportunities: 0] [Ding, would you like to spend 1000 origin values to randomly draw a talent?]"Yes!" [Talent drawing in progress, 1000 origin values deducted, remaining origin values.] [Congrattions to the host for obtaining the purple talent: Meek Person.] [Meek Person]: You appear very honest, making it easy to gain others'' trust. (Note: People much stronger than you may see through your thoughts, so exercise restraint!)n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining a one-time talent: Reward +1!] [Reward +1]: After the simtion ends, you can exchange for one additional reward. Jiang Yifeng looked at the talent he had drawn this time. Not very impressive. Could it be that his luck had run out? The Meek Person talent, although purple, wasn''t much better than his current abilities. Pretty useless! As for the one-time talent? It seemed good at first nce. But after the simtor upgrade, Divine Dao cultivation,ws, and battle techniques were all bundled into one reward. Now, the simtion exchanges were basically just talents and cultivation. So this Reward +1 didn''t seem very useful! For a moment, Jiang Yifeng felt a bit speechless. Soon, he suddenly thought. His alchemy talent seemed to have been underutilized for a long time. Could he use this simtion to improve his alchemist rank? Not only that, but his Formation Dao had also been neglected for a long time. In previous simtions, due to the limited exchange options, Jiang Yifeng hadn''t properly cultivated these auxiliary paths. He thought that perhaps in this simtion, he could focus on these. After all, this talent wasn''t great. He couldpletely forgo exchanging it. Although auxiliary paths couldn''t directly increase his strength, when cultivated to a high level, they could still be quite useful. It was time to improve them. With this in mind, Jiang Yifeng had a rough n for this simtion. Just then, the simtor''s voice sounded again. [Ding, the host can choose one talent from the talent pool to carry!] [Talent Pool: Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root, Absolute Rationality, Cmity Tribtion Body!] [Please make your choice!] Jiang Yifeng looked at the talents in the pool. The first spiritual root was worse than his current talent, so it was out of the question. As for the Cmity Tribtion Body? Carrying it would harm both himself and others. The only one worth considering was Absolute Rationality. Now, Jiang Yifeng wasn''t afraid of Absolute Rationality doing anything too extreme. After all, from previous simtions, it was clear that his father wouldn''t harm him and wouldn''t act against him. As for strangers? Jiang Yifeng didn''t care much. But carrying this talent wasn''t suitable for cultivation! As Jiang Yifeng''s cultivation improved, he realized that Absolute Rationality, a talent devoid of emotions, hindered not only the cultivation of the Sword of Killing Intent but also theprehension ofws. Previously, if not for using the Taotie Divine Body to devourws and enhance their power,prehendingws while carrying Absolute Rationality would have been very difficult. After all,prehendingws often required emotions and sudden insights. But Absolute Rationality made these difficult to achieve. Because it always maintained high-level thinking, making sudden insights rare. After much deliberation, Jiang Yifeng made his decision. "Carry Absolute Rationality!" Yes, he still chose Absolute Rationality. Because he remembered that the one-time talent was Reward +1 after the simtion ended. He originally nned to improve his auxiliary professions. And regarding auxiliary paths, Jiang Yifeng thought Absolute Rationality might perform well. However, after making his choice, Jiang Yifeng kept praying in his heart. "Don''t cause trouble, don''t cause trouble!" Yes, Jiang Yifeng was a bit worried. Although he nned to improve his auxiliary professions, who knew if carrying Absolute Rationality would cause some unexpected issues. After all, in previous simtions, Absolute Rationality had made some clever ns! But the results were... unspeakable. [Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining the talent: Absolute Rationality!] [The 30th simtion begins!] [You realize you have entered the simtion!] [With Absolute Rationality, you begin to reflect on this talent.] [After much thought, you also believe that improving auxiliary professions is a good choice.] [How exactly to proceed?] [You have a rough direction in mind.] [But it still needs some experimentation.] [On the first day, you find your father Jiang Fushan and maid Little Peach, once again reminding them not to cultivate to immortality.] [After receiving satisfactory responses, you head straight to the Spring Blossom Pavilion and find Qiu Zhixuan.] [You use the Meek Person talent and tell Qiu Zhixuan that you are a high-ranking member of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [Qiu Zhixuan looks at you with some doubt.] [She remembers having seen all the high-ranking members of the Immortal Arrival Sect!] [But soon, she shakes her head, thinking she must have remembered wrong.] [You look so honest, how could you be lying?] [So, without asking for any proof, she bows deeply to you.] [Seeing this, you have a rough understanding of the Meek Person talent. It indeed works as you suspected.] [Although this talent is hard to use on people with higher cultivation than yours, it works perfectly on those with lower cultivation.] [After that, you continue to use the Meek Person talent, moving through various branches of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [Soon, everyone knows that the Immortal Arrival Sect has a new high-ranking member.] [Even Shen Wuyou, at the Fifth Layer of Tribtion, believes this.] [In just one year, you use the Meek Person talent to be the sect master of the Immortal Arrival Sect, forcing Shen Wuyou to be the deputy sect master.] [After that, you instruct the members of the Immortal Arrival Sect to search for two women named Su Mushuang and Jiang Ruxuan.] [After all, from multiple simtions, the outside world is in constant war, but the Southern Regions remain peaceful.] [If you can find them and prevent Jiang Ruxuan from breaking through to immortality,] [Perhaps the Southern Regions could be the safest ce!] [Moreover, if you find them, you might get some unknown information from Su Mushuang.] [Your mother, who is at the peak of the Saint realm, saved the entire family but not you.] [This is very suspicious!] [Of course, you instruct the Immortal Arrival Sect members to search, just to try your luck.] [After all, you know that finding a Saint realm expert who wants to hide is very unlikely.] [Besides that, you also instruct the branches of the Immortal Arrival Sect to regrly hand overrge amounts of resources to you.] Chapter 183: Pill Dao, Formation Dao, both break through! After giving a series of instructions, you began your seclusion in the branch of the Immortal Arrival Sect. In the days that followed, you spent half of your time each day improving your cultivation, and the other half fully devoted to practicing your Pill Refining Technique. You could say that every day, apart from cultivating, you were refining pills, with no time for rest at all. If this were your previous life, you would have died of exhaustion in less than three days. In the second year, your cultivation showed a slight improvement, but it wasn''t significant. After all, your current cultivation level was already quite strong; for a normal Chosen at your stage, breaking through would take hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years. So this was a normal phenomenon! During this period, your cultivation didn''t improve much, but your Pill Refining Technique advanced by leaps and bounds. At this point, you had already be a seventh-grade alchemist!In fact, the rapid improvement in your Pill Refining Technique was due to several reasons. First, you had previously engaged in deep simtion and seen a lot of pill refining experiences, which helped you avoid many detours. Second, you had the buff of the Orange Talent, Pill Dao Saint Hand. Third, your current strength was very strong, and it''s well known that the stronger you are, the better yourprehension. This is what is meant by "master one and master all." With your current strength, learning Pill Refining Technique was undoubtedly much faster than when you were at a lower level. Calcting the time, you realized Bai Ruoxue should be appearing again. If you wanted to obtain the Heavenly Profound Sword, it was about time to set off. After pondering for a moment, you shook your head. Forget it. The Heavenly Profound Sword would be helpful, but not as much as you imagined. Moreover, you had other ns this time, and it wasn''t wise to offend Bai Ruoxue. As for using the Meek Person talent to deceive Bai Ruoxue? Not reliable! After all, if she returned to the Eastern Regions and went inside that Bronze Gate once, recovering her full strength, it might expose you. Having thought it through, you continued to focus on your secluded cultivation and improving your Pill Refining Technique. In the blink of an eye, several years passed. In the tenth year, your Pill Refining Technique advanced to the immortal-grade. After that, it became much harder to improve your Pill Refining Technique. First, your Pill Refining Technique was mostly self-taught, and you didn''t have a high level of inheritance. You didn''t have any pill recipes above the immortal-grade, so you needed to research them yourself. But this wasn''t the biggest difficulty in the face of your Orange Talent, Pill Dao Saint Hand. The key was that refining pills above the immortal-grade required very high-level elixirs, and although the Immortal Arrival Sect had some in storage. Without the pill recipes, it couldn''t withstand your experimental consumption.N?v(el)B\\jnn So, you temporarily gave up on continuing to improve your Pill Refining Technique. Instead, you began to study the Formation Dao. Having decided to study the Formation Dao, the first ce you thought of was Spine Mountain. There, Lu Wuya had left behind an immortal-grade formation. It was just right for you toprehend and practice. As for the sealing formation in the Southern Regions, its level was still a bit high, and you decided to thoroughlyprehend the formation at Spine Mountain before studying the sealing formation. Once you had the thought, you acted on it. In the eleventh year, you left the Immortal Arrival Sect alone and headed to Spine Mountain. Upon arriving at Spine Mountain, you used the Meek Person talent. You imed to be a descendant of the senior Lu Wuya. You came here to retrace the path of your ancestors and prove your Dao through formations! You wanted to pay homage to the formation left by Lu Wuya. After some persuasion, the people of Spine Mountain, led by Old Li, believed you were a descendant of Lu Wuya. They took you to the ce where Lu Wuya had left his formation. Without shedding a drop of blood, you entered the formation at Spine Mountain. In the days that followed, you began to study the grand formation left by Lu Wuya every day. Already a ninth-grade Formation Master, your current cultivation was sufficient. Studying this grand formation no longer felt as strenuous as it did during your previous simtions. In the fifteenth year, your Formation Dao broke through to the immortal-grade. At this point, looking at the formation left by Lu Wuya, you could already see through more than half of it. That''s right, only more than half. You were still far from being able to set it up yourself. Clearly, your previous spection was correct. Lu Wuya and Mo Jingtian were not just at the immortal realm. Otherwise, it would have been unlikely for Lu Wuya to set up a formation beyond the immortal-grade. Your Formation Dao had broken through to the immortal-grade, but unlike Pill Refining Technique, formations could beprehended and didn''t require as many resources. So, you didn''t leave Spine Mountain. Instead, you continued to cultivate the Formation Dao. In the blink of an eye, decades passed! In the fortieth year, you sessfully broke through to be a third-grade Immortal Formation Master. By this time, the formation left by Lu Wuya held no more secrets for you. You estimated that when Lu Wuya set up this formation, he was likely a third-grade or fourth-grade Immortal Formation Master! As for why you say possibly a fourth-grade Immortal Formation Master? Because you felt that as a third-grade Immortal Formation Master, setting up this formation would be quite strenuous. This was aposite formation. It used arge number of third-grade immortal-grade formations, intricately arranged. If it were only a third-grade Immortal Formation Master,pleting the setup might take hundreds of years. You remembered that during the time of Lu Wuya and Mo Jingtian, there was also Heavenly Thunder. This formation was likely set up in a short period. Of course, it''s also possible that the Heavenly Thunder in the Southern Regions was limited in power and couldn''t harm very strong practitioners. So, at that time, Lu Wuya might have set up the formation while withstanding the Heavenly Thunder. This possibility is actually quite high. After all, the information you previously obtained suggested that Mo Jingtian had withstood the Heavenly Thunder to break out of the Southern Regions. Therefore, Lu Wuya, who was with Mo Jingtian, might also have been able to withstand the Heavenly Thunder. After all, during your previous simtions, when you experienced the Heavenly Thunder, your strength was still too low. You didn''t have an urate assessment of the actual power of the Heavenly Thunder. But no matter what, Lu Wuya''s formation skills were either at the third-grade or fourth-grade Immortal Formation Master level. Personally, you leaned towards the fourth-grade. After all, would a Chosen like Lu Wuya spend hundreds of years setting up a formation to help others avoid Heavenly Thunder? You thought, if it were you, you definitely wouldn''t! With that time, it would be more worthwhile to improve your cultivation or enhance your Formation Dao. Chapter 184: Adventurous act In truth, ording to your original n, both alchemy and the cultivation of Formation Dao would take a lot of time. So, your n was to hide in the Southern Regions for a long while. But now, in just forty years, you''ve elevated both your alchemy and formation skills to a level beyond the immortal grade. At this point, it''s bing increasingly difficult to rapidly improve your skills in formations and alchemy. This forces you to ponder your next steps. In the forty-first year, you tried using the Taotie Divine Body to devour the killing intent of the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords and the mes of the Valley of mes. But the results were not ideal. With your current cultivation, those resources no longer provide any significant improvement, and it''s better to focus on secluded cultivation. To quickly advance now, you need higher-level resources.And these advanced resources are nowhere to be found in the Immortal Arrival Sect. You''re wondering if it''s time to leave the Southern Regions. After all, without special resources, relying solely on secluded cultivation at your level could take thousands or even tens of thousands of years to break through. After much consideration, you didn''t leave the Southern Regions immediately. Instead, you returned to Spine Mountain. You attempted to use formations to guide the underground heavenly thunder of Spine Mountain for cultivation! However, the heavenly thunder drawn out by formations couldn''t be too strong. Otherwise, the formations left by Senior Lu Wuya, already in tatters, wouldn''t be able to withstand it. You also considered repairing the formations before attempting to guide the heavenly thunder. But after calctions, you found it difficult to make it work. After all, your physical body is too strong now, requiring particrly powerful heavenly thunder to be effective. At least at the strength of a Mystic Immortal, or even a True Immortal. Such strength might be withstood by the original formations. But a repaired formation certainly can''t match the strength of the original setup! Its capabilities are definitelycking in all aspects. So, you feel that repairing the formations and then using the underground heavenly thunder for cultivation is nearly impossible! At this moment, a crazy idea forms in your mind. You''re thinking, what if you face the eruption of the underground heavenly thunder directly? This heavenly thunder, umted over millions of years, erupting all at once, should be strong enough for your cultivation, right? But can you withstand it? You consider that although there''s a lot of underground heavenly thunder, it''s ultimatelyposed of thunder meant to strike down cultivators below the immortal realm. ????¨°B?? Even if the umtion time is long enough, with your current cultivation, you might actually withstand its true power. The more you think about it, the more feasible the n seems. If it doesn''t work, you believe you can at least escape! So, you settle down at Spine Mountain once again. Waiting for the copse of the formation! In fact, besides this method, you also considered waiting until the fifty-third year to use the heavenly thunder struck by people from the Immortal Realm for cultivation. But after thinking it through, you gave up. Since you already know that the heavenly thunder is controlled by someone. Using it for cultivation would be deliberately exposing yourself, wouldn''t it? Although Old Li and others, hiding with the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya, weren''t noticed by the other side. That''s because their strength is low. You think that if your current strength is exposed, there are only two possible oues for you. First, that Immortal Lord is very strong and directly strikes you down. Second, he reports upwards, and then you''re either killed or controlled. So, now that the Valley of mes and the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords are of no use to you in the Southern Regions, the only quick resource you can think of is the underground heavenly thunder of Spine Mountain. In reality, Jiang Yifeng frowned slightly as he read this. Isn''t this a bit too risky? After all, it''s heavenly thunder umted over millions of years. Even though most of it is meant to strike down low-level cultivators. But with so many years of umtion, can that strength really be withstood? Momentster. Jiang Yifeng suddenlyughed. It doesn''t matter. After all, the initial goal this time was to improve Formation Dao and Pill Refining Technique. Now that both have been achieved.N?v(el)B\\jnn It''s okay to take some risks afterward. If it fails, consider it a lesson for future simtions. One must admit, Jiang Yifeng''s mindset has matured quite a bit. A year quickly passed. In the forty-second year, the underground heavenly thunder of Spine Mountain erupted as expected. In an instant, you were engulfed by the vast heavenly thunder! Your body began to crack. Your Yimu Divine Body also yed its role once again. But it wasn''t enough, it couldn''t fully recover! Soon, you discovered the chaotic energy within you began to surge! The golden chaotic energy continuously poured out from your Qi Sea, frantically repairing your cracked body. Judging by the effect, it was even several times stronger than your Purple Talent Yimu Divine Body! At this moment, the advantage of your cultivation in Divine Dao began to manifest. With the help of the Yimu Divine Body and your Divine Dao chaotic energy, you withstood the most ferocious wave of underground heavenly thunder. You knew that the rest would be easier. Afterward, you used the Taotie Divine Body to continuously cultivate and devour! And your strength began to steadily increase. In the blink of an eye, two years passed. The erupting heavenly thunder hadpletely dissipated. In fact, half of it was devoured by you, while the other half dissipated into the world over time. At this moment, a faint blue lightning began to emerge from your physical body. Your Law of Thunder, over these two years, visibly began to improve. Minor sess, peak of minor sess, major sess, all the way to the peak of major sess before it slowly stopped. In truth, given the millions of years'' worth of heavenly thunder reserves, you should have achieved more than just this level of improvement. However, your understanding of thews mainly relied on the Taotie Divine Body''s devouring, with little selfprehension. After all, your Absolute Rationality talent, while conducive to nning, isn''t always helpful for understandingws, which sometimes require a pure heart. The less you think, the more beneficial it is forprehending variousws. After finishing your cultivation, you didn''t linger in the charred Spine Mountain. Instead, you returned to the Immortal Arrival Sect. In the forty-fifth year, you had been back at the Immortal Arrival Sect for over a year. During this year, you frantically packed up the resources of the Immortal Arrival Sect. In the forty-sixth year, you returned to Green Hills City with arge amount of resources. It''s worth mentioning that your father, Jiang Fushan, has now reached the eighth level of the Tribtion Crossing Realm. Previously, when he broke through the Core Formation stage, he wasn''t hunted down. After all, you''re now the sect master of the Immortal Arrival Sect, and everything is up to you! And Little Peach has also reached the third level of Tribtion Crossing. Upon returning to Green Hills City, you immediately took your father Jiang Fushan and Little Peach with you. Chapter 185: Big fool? [Not long after, you brought your father Jiang Fushan and Little Peach to the Endless Sea.] [This time, you wanted to leave the Southern Regions from here and head to the "Eastern Regions" to find Bai Moyu!] [As for bringing Little Peach, she was your bodyguard. After all, you knew she could unleash the power of the Saint realm at critical moments.] [As for when this critical moment would be?] [You summarized the previous asions when Little Peach unleashed her Saint realm power.] [Two possibilities came to mind!]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [One is when you undergo tribtion to be an immortal?] [If that''s the case, bringing Little Peach is like bringing a maid; it doesn''t hurt.] [The second possibility is facing a Saint realm expert, encountering a deadly crisis!][This possibility is actually quite significant.] [Previously, you were only focused on tribtion crossing, thinking about bing an immortal, not considering this step.] [But if this is the case, then when facing a Saint realm expert, you might have a chance to escape.] [So, bringing Little Peach when leaving the Southern Regions is a must.] [As for bringing your father Jiang Fushan?] [That''s just to see if you can lure out your mother Su Mushuang.] [Although you know it''s very likely to be the same as before.] [Using methods you can''tprehend to transfer your father Jiang Fushan away.] [But you think it''s still worth a try.] [Maybe with your increased strength, you can detect a trace of her.] [After the three of you appeared at the Endless Sea, the Mystic Turtle guarding the ce didn''t show up.] [You were puzzled by this!] [What''s going on?] [Why is there another change?] [You were nning to ask the Mystic Turtle some questions.] [After all, you always suspected that the Mystic Turtle didn''t tell the truth in the previous simtion!] [You were wondering if, with your increased strength, its words would change.] [And see if you could find any discrepancies throughparison.] [But unexpectedly, it didn''t show up this time.] [However, its absence made you realize; the Mystic Turtle''s previous words about the formation spirit were indeed lies.] [After pondering for a moment, you had some guesses!] [You thought, could it be that your strength is now sufficient, so the Mystic Turtle no longer hinders you?] [If that''s the case, then things have indeed be interesting.] [Afterward, you didn''t dwell on it, and directly led your father and Little Peach into the depths of the Endless Sea.] [Heading straight for the crack in the sealing formation.] [Upon reaching the crack, you let your father Jiang Fushan go out first.] [Your father Jiang Fushan didn''t think much and stepped forward.] [Your gaze and all your attention were focused on your father Jiang Fushan.] [You wanted to see clearly how he was being transported away.] [Just as your father approached the formation.] [You suddenly saw his ear twitch slightly.] [Then, he turned to look at you, smiled, and said two words: "Good luck!"] [And then he disappeared.] ["How could this be?"] [You looked at the spot where your father disappeared, incredulous.] [You had focused all your attention on your father Jiang Fushan, but apart from seeing his ear twitch, you didn''t sense anything unusual.] [Not even a hint of spatial fluctuation.] [Is the power of the Saint realm really that strong?] [Not to mention tracking, you didn''t even notice when they made a move!] [But why did you see a Saint realm expert make a move in the previous simtion?] [Could it be that other Saint realm experts are weaker?] [No, you thought, perhaps because your strength was low, the Saint realm expert didn''t exert full power.] [And during the Saint battle, everyone was of the same level.] [Many of their profound techniques might not have been as effective, so they fought in more primitive ways, allowing you to see.] [You took a deep breath, feeling this possibility was the greatest.] [But no matter what, this time, you deeply understood the gap between you and a Saint realm expert.] [One can only say, Saint realm experts are terrifying!] [You had underestimated them before.] [Thinking of this, you took a deep breath.] [Since that''s the case, you need to further enhance your strength.] [So, you set aside your thoughts and continued toward the crack in the sealing formation with Little Peach.] [Little Peach was also surprised, seeing the master disappear into thin air, a bit lost.] [But seeing you without much emotional fluctuation, she thought it was your deliberate arrangement.] [And you didn''t exin.] [In the blink of an eye, several days passed.] [You and Little Peach had arrived in the "Eastern Regions."] [Upon arriving, you first bought a map and headed straight for the Celestial Verdant Sect.] [The Celestial Verdant Sect is Bai Ruoxue''s sect, where the Saint realm expert Bai Moyu resides.] [You went there to get some information from Bai Moyu.] [Secondly, you wanted to learn some knowledge from him.] [Such as the Formation Dao of the immortal-grade, and the Pill Refining Technique and Pill Recipe before the immortal level; even some techniques.] [These are what youck.] [As for whether the other party is willing to share or teach?] [You weren''t sure!] [But you had no choice; with your current cultivation, ordinary techniques no longer interest you.] [And the Saint realm expert you could approach, with low risk and known location, was only Bai Moyu.] [However, on the way to the Celestial Verdant Sect, you continuously swept through various auction houses.] [Whether it was elixirs for alchemy or treasures to enhance cultivation, you bid frantically.] [In the end, you paid several times the price to acquire the rare treasures.] [For a time, many auction houses in the "Eastern Regions" knew of a big spender!] [They all released their treasured collections at inted prices for auction.] [Hoping to make a big profit.] [And when you heard this news, your smile widened.] [You must know, before leaving the Southern Regions, you had practically emptied the Immortal Arrival Sect''s millions of years of reserves.] [Spirit Stones? You don''tck them at all now!] [In fact, you have so many that you can''t even count them.] [You only remember filling about a thousand or eight hundred storage rings!] [What youck now are various rare treasures.] [The actions of these auction houses were exactly what you wanted!] [So, as long as it was useful to you, you epted everything, sweeping up goods like crazy.] [In the blink of an eye, a year passed.] [During this time, you collected a full three storage rings of rare treasures!] [However, in the process of collecting treasures, you didn''t dy your journey.] [At this moment, you and Little Peach finally arrived outside the Celestial Verdant Sect.] Chapter 186: Big misunderstanding [You gaze at the grand and imposing gates of the Celestial Verdant Sect, ready to present your visiting card and have the gatekeeping disciples announce your arrival.] [Just then, a middle-aged man flies out from within the sect and stops in front of you.] [You scrutinize the middle-aged man standing before you.] [Not knowing who he is, you prepare to use the Eye of Insight to check.] [But soon you realize there''s no need!] [Because the gatekeeping disciples of the Celestial Verdant Sect all bow to the neer, shouting, "Sect Master!"] [Clearly, this man is Bai Moyu.] [You look at Bai Moyu, your eyes narrowing slightly!] [In your heart, you think: As expected, Bai Moyu has always been keeping an eye on the Southern Regions!][You believe that when you left the Endless Sea for the Southern Regions, he must have received the news.] [Otherwise, he wouldn''t have appeared in front of you as soon as you arrived outside the Celestial Verdant Sect!] [In fact, from the moment the Mystic Turtle didn''t appear from the Endless Sea, you could already guess the general situation!] [After all, from previous simtions, it was evident that the Mystic Turtle had some dealings with Bai Moyu.] [And this time, the Mystic Turtle didn''t show up, leading you to specte that your strength had reached the standard.] [So, it didn''t stop you.] [This is also why you came directly to the Celestial Verdant Sect upon arriving in the Eastern Regions.] [Because you believe if your spection is correct, as long as your strength meets the standard, the Mystic Turtle won''t stop you from entering and leaving the Southern Regions from the Endless Sea.] [Then, this should also be rted to Bai Moyu.] [Given this, you now have a significant chance of gaining benefits or new information from Bai Moyu.] [Based on your spection, you think Bai Moyu might very well be a backup n left by your "past life" or the simtor!] [After all, from multiple simtions, among so many Saint realm powerhouses, only he has shown no obvious hostility towards you.] [Even if there are some schemes, it''s just to promote your rapid advancement!] [You think this possibility is quite high.] [Of course, even without these spections, your original n was to find Bai Moyu.] [Getting information and benefits from him would be the best oue.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [If not, at worst, you''ll be sent back to the Southern Regions.] [Now, with the recent spection, it just made you advance your visit to the Celestial Verdant Sect.] [You believe that even if your spection is wrong, it won''t have a significant impact on the future!] [At worst, after returning to the Southern Regions, you can leave from another ce.] [While you are lost in thought.] [Bai Moyu is also continuously observing you and Little Peach.] [At this moment, Bai Moyu is only at the ninth level of Tribtion Crossing, with most of his strength and memories sealed behind a bronze gate deep within the sect.] [Although he can''t see through your strength now, he knows from the information passed by the Mystic Turtle that your strength has surpassed the Mortal Immortal realm.] [And Little Peach beside you also possesses the strength of the third level of Tribtion Crossing.] [Coming from the Southern Regions, you just happen to be a man and a woman.] [He thinks it can''t be wrong!] [You should be the ones he''s been waiting for.] [Thus, Bai Moyu greets you, even bowing to you.] [He says he wants to take you and Little Peach to a special ce.] [His posture is quite humble.] [Seeing Bai Moyu like that.] [You were initially uncertain about your previous spection, but now you think it can''t be wrong!] [At least the possibility has increased to ny percent.] [If he isn''t a backup n left by you, you think there''s no reason for him to be so respectful towards you.] [After all, no matter what, he is a Saint realm powerhouse.] [Even though he has self-sealed part of his memory and strength, he can retrieve them at any time.] [Proving that he knows his true strength.] [The main thing sealed is his strength, while the memory might only have a few special parts.] [You have to admit, your reasoning is quite sound.] [And at this moment, Bai Moyu has the same thought.] [He thinks his guess is also correct.] [Since you and Little Peach can calmly ept his bow, he believes you are the ones he''s been waiting for.] [Sometimes, misunderstandings arise from strange coincidences.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng sees this! He can''t help but cover his forehead. This misunderstanding is too much. However, ording to the simtor''s disy. Jiang Yifeng already knows that Bai Moyu is indeed a backup n left by someone. But this person is not himself. Rather, it''s a man and a woman. Recalling previous simtions, Jiang Yifeng spectes that this man and woman are likely the two powerhouses who prevented the Saint realm from taking action. And judging from the recent simtion, those two powerhouses seem to be in the Southern Regions as well. They might even have reincarnated or undergone re-cultivation. Otherwise, Bai Moyu, withoutplete memory, couldn''t have mistaken him and Little Peach for those two. After all, the difference in strength is so vast. It''s unlikely to be a mistake. But who are those two powerhouses? Jiang Yifeng ponders deeply. Suddenly, he looks towards his father Jiang Fushan''s room, muttering to himself. "Is it Dad and that unseen Mom?" Thinking of this possibility. He feels that while it''s a misunderstanding, the oue might not be bad. After all, if Bai Moyu is a backup n left by Dad and them, then they should be on the same side. As for why he says "should" instead of being certain? Because he only trusts Dad, but as for the mother who didn''t help in times of need, he doesn''t trust her much. So, it''s only a "should"! Jiang Yifeng takes a deep breath and stops thinking about it. Whether it is or not, it should be clear soon. As long as theplete version of Bai Moyues online, it should be clear what''s going on. So, Jiang Yifeng quickly continues to look at the simtor. [Both you and Bai Moyu each believe your guesses are correct.] [So, the two of you get along very well.] [Soon, you and Little Peach are led by Bai Moyu deeper into the Celestial Verdant Sect.] [You know Bai Moyu is going to awaken his memory and strength.] [And then talk to you.] [You naturally won''t refuse this.] [After all, only theplete Bai Moyu knows more.] [A dozen minutester, the three of you arrive at the underground bronze gate.] [Under Bai Moyu''s operation, the bronze gate soon opens, and you are instantly sucked inside.] [Even with your current strength, you still find it difficult to resist that suction.] [Inside the bronze gate, you appear in front of a crystal coffin.] [Inside the coffin lies the body formed by Bai Moyu''s sealed strength and memory!] [You are not surprised by this, as you already knew about it from previous simtions.] [In just a moment, Bai Moyu haspleted the fusion.] [The Bai Moyu who has regained his memory takes a look at you and Little Peach.] [His brows furrow slightly, and he softly says, "You are not them!"] Chapter 187: Bai Moyu is extremely scared! After Bai Moyu carefully assessed your strength, he murmured to himself in confusion. "If it''s not them, how could you have seeded in breaking through in the Southern Regions?" Bai Moyu was genuinely puzzled! So, he reached out a hand towards you, intending to probe your memories. Seeing this, you did not panic! When Bai Moyu mentioned it wasn''t you, you realized it was a misunderstanding. At this moment, as he made a move against you, you felt he was likely trying to investigate your cultivation or memories. Are you afraid? No, you trust the simtor''s capabilities.Or rather, you want to test the simtor''s abilities! Just then, Little Peach''s expression changed. As she saw Bai Moyu making a move against you, her eyes suddenly became sharp. A mysterious aura flowed from her body. Bai Moyu was taken aback and quickly withdrew his outstretched arm. Finally, Bai Moyu turned his attention to Little Peach, whom he hadn''t paid much attention to before. Now, Bai Moyu was extremely anxious. What kind of freaks are these! Someone actually intends to reverse time and space! He had cultivated for nearly a billion years and had only heard of people capable of disrupting time and space! He never expected to encounter it today. He quickly shouted, "Fellow Daoist, I was reckless!" "I assure you, I won''t have any other thoughts; Fellow Daoist, please stop! Such a great karmic consequence of reversing time and space, you must pay a hefty price too!" ? "I''m just a mere Saint realm cultivator, there''s no need, no need!"n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om A torrent of words spilled from Bai Moyu''s mouth. But Little Peach seemed unresponsive, her aura still rising. Bai Moyu was extremely ufortable! Could it be that after surviving for so long, he was going to die today? Suddenly, a thought struck him. He realized that it was his action against you that caused Little Peach''s change. Perhaps the solutiony with you! So, Bai Moyu hurriedly shouted at you, "Young Friend, make her stop! I was wrong, I was wrong, what do you want? Just say it!" You have to admit, Bai Moyu was truly adaptable! A dignified Saint realm expert actually apologized to someone at the Two-Star Ancient God realm. Even using a pleading tone. At this moment, you finally reacted. When Little Peach erupted, you knew that testing the simtor was out of the question. But it didn''t matter! After all, that wasn''t your main goal. Now, this situation was even better. You gained the upper hand in front of Bai Moyu. You nced at Bai Moyu but didn''t immediately stop Little Peach''s eruption. Because you weren''t sure if you could stop it. If you couldn''t stop it, you would lose your advantage. So, you told Bai Moyu that you needed his memories! As long as he handed over all his memories, you would stop Little Peach. You were making an outrageous demand. After all, the memories of a Saint realm expert must contain countless secrets, even numerous techniques and skills. You might even gain insights into variousws directly from his memories. This was incredibly valuable. Of course, asking for a Saint realm expert''s memories also had side effects. If the memories were too vast, you might lose yourself. You were well aware of this, but you still made the demand. You were willing to take the gamble. After all, you knew you currently possessed Absolute Rationality, and there was a good chance you could withstand the impact of such vast memories. Moreover, you felt that even if you couldn''t withstand it, it didn''t matter. After all, it''s just a simtion; if you die, you can start over. However, despite your bold idea, Bai Moyu had his own limits. He refused your request! He said he could answer all your questions. But giving up his memories was out of the question. This was understandable. After all, if he handed over all his memories, what would be of him? He was a Saint realm expert. His memories contained insights into variousws, even the understanding of the Dao! The memories of a Saint realm expert couldn''t be copied at will. If they could be copied easily, Saint realm experts could replicate their memories countless times and pass them on to others. Wouldn''t that easily create a multitude of peerless experts? If he gave you his memories, his realm would inevitably plummet! Moreover, he thought that even if he didn''t care about his realm, If he truly gave you all his memories, you would surely lose yourself, and then who would stop Little Peach? And because of your insufficient realm, you didn''t understand how significant the impact of a Saint realm expert''s memories could be. However, seeing Bai Moyu''s demeanor, you knew it was impossible to get all his memories. At this point, Little Peach''s aura had already risen to the True Immortal realm. You knew you couldn''t dy any longer. If Little Peach truly erupted, she would likely die afterward. If you killed Bai Moyu before that, you wouldn''t gain any benefit. And if you didn''t kill Bai Moyu, you would have no leverage to threaten him. There was no other way. Once Bai Moyu refused to give his memories, you knew you had to stop Little Peach from continuing to erupt. After all, Little Peach was your only trump card. If you let her go like this, no matter what Bai Moyu promised afterward, if he reneged, you would have no way to stop him! So, you quickly shouted, "Little Peach, stop!" Little Peach''s eyes flickered slightly at your voice, and her aura began to retract. There was hope! You continued to shout, "Little Peach, stop, be good, listen..." As your voice echoed continuously, Little Peach slowly turned her head to look at you. Her sharp gaze softened, and she murmured, "Young Master, long time no see!" After speaking, Little Peach looked at Bai Moyu again. In a cold voice, she said, "If you dare disrespect the Young Master again, even if I have to cross endless time and space, you will surely die!" As soon as the words fell, Little Peach''s aura began to plummet. From the cultivation level of Supreme Unity Golden Immortal, it fell directly to the Tribtion Crossing stage. No, it didn''t stop there! Finally, Little Peach''s cultivationpletely vanished, and she became a mortal. Then, with a thud, she copsed to the ground, unconscious! Chapter 188: The original true purpose of the Southern Regions Formation Seeing this scene, you feel a bit worried that Bai Moyu might resort to underhanded tactics. You''re unsure if Little Peach, in her current state, can unleash her power again. Of course, Bai Moyu is unaware of your inner thoughts. If he knew, he might think, "Am I tired of living?" Although it seems he has a chance to kill Little Peach now, he doesn''t understand if that powerful being who can transcend time and space has other means. The warning from when "Little Peach" erupted still rings in his ears! Your mind is racing with thoughts, but outwardly, you remain calm. You slowly walk over to Little Peach and help her up. You appear to have everything under control.Then, you turn to Bai Moyu and say, "Does what you said earlier still hold?" Bai Moyu pauses for a moment and nods, "Ask away, I''ll tell you everything I know!" In fact, during that brief moment, Bai Moyu thought a lot. From Little Peach''s earlier disy and your ability to break through to the Immortal Realm in the Southern Regions, he realized that your backgrounds are not simple. He doesn''t dare to probe into your origins any further. But since you want to learn something from him, perhaps he can make friends with you. If you "recover" someday, you might even help the Nine Mystic Realm! Though Bai Moyu is somewhat afraid of death, he still cares deeply about the Nine Mystic Realm. He always considers things from the perspective of the Nine Mystic Realm. After receiving Bai Moyu''s affirmative response, you begin to ponder what you should ask. You have many questions, but Bai Moyu can actually answer only a few. For instance, about your simtor or your previous simtion back to billions of years ago¡ªBai Moyu certainly wouldn''t know about these. In the end, you can only ask about matters concerning the Nine Mystic Realm and the Southern Regions. However, you don''t ask directly; instead, you let Bai Moyu talk about the major events between the Immortal Realm, the Nine Mystic Realm, and the Southern Regions! After all, you think the information and spections you obtained earlier may not be entirely correct. Bai Moyu might not tell the truth either. Now, having Bai Moyu recount everything allows you topare it with your previous spections.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om You can then judge the truth for yourself. Bai Moyu, hearing this, doesn''t say much more. He simply starts speaking on his own. Regarding the Immortal Realm''s invasion of the Nine Mystic Realm and even other realms, it aligns with what Guo Qing told you before. The Immortal Realm''s goal is to plunder the Heavenly Dao. As for where exactly the Immortal Realm got the method to enhance by plundering the Heavenly Dao, Bai Moyu doesn''t know either! Bai Moyu continues until he mentions a man and a woman, two powerful figures who blocked the Saint realm experts of the Nine Mystic Realm and the Immortal Realm from joining the battle. Here, the information finally differs from what you previously obtained. The man and woman were not in their prime; they were already injured. After blocking the Saint realm experts from both realms, they went into seclusion. But at this point, Bai Moyu suddenly pauses. He seems to be struggling with whether or not to say something. At this moment, a thought suddenly urs to you. Seeing Bai Moyu''s hesitation, you directly ask, "Did those two hide in the Southern Regions?" Actually, your guess is based on evidence. Before Bai Moyu regained his memory, when he saw you and Little Peach, he was very respectful, even mistaking you for someone else. Initially, you didn''t quite understand. But now that Bai Moyu mentioned the two powerful figures being injured and in seclusion, you immediately thought that Bai Moyu was waiting for that man and woman. Bai Moyu might not have been entirely truthful; those two might not just be injured but severely wounded, possibly needing reincarnation and re-cultivation. If this conclusion holds, it would exin why, during the previous simtion, the Saint realm experts of the Immortal Realm dared to defy the orders of those two and attack the Southern Regions. Because the Immortal Realm also knew something had happened to those two! Of course, this is still just your spection. You focus your gaze on Bai Moyu, waiting for him to continue. Seeing that you''ve guessed the hiding ce of those two powerful figures, Bai Moyu doesn''t hide it anymore and nods. He then continues, "Not many people know about those two seniors being injured." "They used the excuse of needing to cultivate and secluded themselves in the Southern Regions." "In fact, I even set up a formation in the Southern Regions to block others from entering or leaving, as a form of protection!" Hearing this, you''re taken aback! "Bai Moyu, Bai Moyu, in the previous simtion, you didn''t say it like this." At that time, Bai Moyu imed he set up the formation to protect the people of the Southern Regions. He even told his daughter, Bai Ruoxue, the same thing. Goodness, it was all a lie! As you mentally criticize, Bai Moyu''s voice continues. "But there''s no wall that doesn''t leak. As soon as Ipleted the formation, the Saint realm experts from the Immortal Realm appeared." "It seems they caught wind of something." "However, they weren''t sure if those two powerful figures had really encountered a mishap!" "So they imed that with their greater strength, they could better protect the two seniors, and they took over the formation I set up in the Southern Regions!" "Initially, they only observed frequently!" "But as time went on and those two seniors remained hidden, the Immortal Realm grew bolder." "They began sending people to release Heavenly Thunder every few decades, attacking cultivators in the Southern Regions to test those two seniors!" "Initially, it was just a test, and the Heavenly Thunder didn''t cause real casualties." "After all, those two seniors were too powerful, and they feared the information they received might be false!" "And by only attacking and not killing, they could im it was to temper the younger generation!" At this point, Bai Moyu sneers, "They really are sanctimonious, ying a clever game!" After mocking the Immortal n, Bai Moyu continues. "As time passed and those two seniors still didn''t appear, the Immortal n''s tests grew bolder." "They began manipting Heavenly Thunder to kill cultivators in the Southern Regions." "For a time, many cultivators in the Southern Regions died." "But after several hundred years, two Chosen emerged in the Southern Regions!" "Their names were Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya!" Chapter 189: Finally seeing the truth of the Southern Regions [After a brief pause, Bai Moyu continued his story.] "Actually, Mo Jingtian and the others didn''t just emerge out of nowhere; they were just very good at hiding, so no one noticed them at first." "When the Heavenly Thunder began to strike down cultivators in the Southern Regions, they had already reached a rtively high level of cultivation." "The Immortal n releasing the Heavenly Thunder were merely testing the reactions of those two seniors, and at most, they were only at the Supreme Unity Golden Immortal level." "So, the two of them withstood the Heavenly Thunder of the Southern Regions!" "In fact, after surviving several rounds of Heavenly Thunder and witnessing the tragic deaths of many cultivators, they began to n their escape from the Southern Regions." "After numerous attempts, five million years ago, they finally seeded in breaking through the formation and escaping the Southern Regions!" Hearing this, you understood. It turns out that in the end, the Heavenly Thunder of the Southern Regions wasn''t fatal!This might be the reason why Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya could safely cultivate to such high levels! Moreover, you finally understood the strength of those controlling the Heavenly Thunder in the Southern Regions. At most, they were only at the Supreme Unity Golden Immortal level, so perhaps it won''t be long before you can withstand the Heavenly Thunder of the Southern Regions too! Of course, even if you could withstand it, you wouldn''t dare! After all, the risk of exposure is too great. The current situation is not like the time of Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya! Back then, when they withstood it, they didn''t attract any Saint realm experts. But now, it''s hard to say. You feel that something else must have happened afterward.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om However, there''s still a question lingering in your mind. So, you interrupted Bai Moyu''s words. You asked, "What level was the formation in the Southern Regions? How did Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya manage to break it?" Actually, you''ve been curious about this question for a long time! Now that Bai Moyu mentioned it, you naturally had to ask. Bai Moyu chuckled and said, "The formation I set up was naturally at the Saint level!" You frowned slightly. A Saint-level formation? But based on the formation left by Lu Wuya at Spine Mountain, his formation skills shouldn''t be more than third or fourth grade, right? With such formation skills, how could they break a Saint-level formation? No, suddenly you thought, perhaps the formation at Spine Mountain was just something Lu Wuya set up casually and quickly! If that''s the case, you really can''t deduce his formation skills. While you were lost in thought, Bai Moyu also revealed the reason why Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya could break the formation. It turns out that Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya had already broken through to the Great Principal Golden Immortal level, and their strength was already very strong! Lu Wuya also had the skills of an eighth-grade Immortal Formation Master. You were quite surprised when Bai Moyu mentioned the strength of Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya. Even though Bai Moyu just said they were strong enough to withstand the Heavenly Thunder of the Supreme Unity Golden Immortal, you only thought they were Chosen who could fight above their level, maybe at the Mystic Immortal or even Golden Immortal level! You didn''t expect them to be directly at the Great Principal Golden Immortal level. If they were to advance further, wouldn''t they reach the Quasi-Saint or even Saint realm? If Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya were still around, they should have reached the Saint realm by now, right? Of course, that''s just your spection! Moreover, ording to Bai Moyu, they didn''t break the formation just because they were strong enough. After all, it was a Saint-level formation, and even if they were at the Great Principal Golden Immortal level with an eighth-grade Immortal Formation Master, it was still not enough! But Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya were very clever. They attacked the Southern Regions'' formation when the Immortal n was controlling the Heavenly Thunder. ording to Bai Moyu, the Immortal n had to weaken the formation to control the Heavenly Thunder and make it descend upon the Southern Regions. This gave Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya the opportunity to break the formation! At this point, you have learned most of the story about Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya. But now you have another question: "When the Immortal Realm used Heavenly Thunder to kill cultivators in the Southern Regions and found that Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya weren''t dead, did they not take any further action?" You were quite concerned about this question. After all, if the Immortal n controlling the Heavenly Thunder was only at the Supreme Unity Golden Immortal level, you might soon be able to withstand the Heavenly Thunder of the Southern Regions. If the Immortal Realm didn''t react strongly, you might be able to use that Heavenly Thunder for cultivation in future simtions. Bai Moyu looked at you with a smile and said, "At that time, it wasn''t just Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya who withstood the Heavenly Thunder; they were just the ones who escaped the Southern Regions and are still famous now!" "The Immortal Realm wasn''t sure what happened to the two strong individuals who were hiding in the Southern Regions, so the real experts were unwilling to take the risk of going to the Southern Regions." "So, even if someone withstood the Heavenly Thunder, they wouldn''t react; after all, their purpose was just to test those two strong individuals!" After listening to Bai Moyu, you suddenly understood. Right! The Immortal Realm''s goal wasn''t to kill people in the Southern Regions. You had just gotten stuck in a dead end. Now your eyes lit up, and you thought, if that''s the case, could you use the Heavenly Thunder of the Southern Regions for cultivation? Bai Moyu seemed to see through your thoughts and reminded you, "Not anymore!" "When Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya broke the formation of the Southern Regions and escaped, the Immortal Realm basically confirmed that something had happened to those two seniors!" "After all, the formation was initially said to cover their retreat and seclusion." "When the formation was broken and those two seniors didn''t appear, it basically confirmed their suspicions." "So, after Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya broke the formation of the Southern Regions, it wasn''t long before Saint realm experts from the Immortal Realm appeared, intending to destroy the Southern Regions directly!" "Only at the critical moment, some Saint realm experts jumped out to oppose it, thinking it was too risky!" "So, due to their stalemate, the Southern Regions have continued to this day!" "After the Saint realm experts of the Immortal Realm had a disagreement." "The radical faction in the Immortal Realm, they spected that those two strong individuals had already reincarnated and were cultivating anew!" "But since the Immortal Realm was divided, they didn''t dare to start a civil war, so they created the Immortal Arrival Sect." "They wanted to use the Immortal Arrival Sect to kill all the cultivators in the Southern Regions, pinning those two strong individuals down in the cradle." "And the conservative faction captured a few fierce beasts to block the cracks in the formation of the Southern Regions." "As for what they intend to do? No one knows!" At this point, Bai Moyu nced at you and said, "So now, if anyone dares to expose cultivation above the Immortal Realm in the Southern Regions, it will definitely attract attacks from the radical faction of the Immortal Realm!" After Bai Moyu finished speaking, he suddenly noticed Little Peach beside you. He immediately felt that he had said too much. With that existence beside you that transcends time and space, exposure might not be a big deal! So, Bai Moyu awkwardly chuckled. At this moment, you finally have a general understanding of everything in the Southern Regions. Many things that were previously unclear now make sense! But what role did Bai Moyu y in all this? Chapter 190: Sixth-Rank Immortal Pill Master, Enlightenment Pill! In reality, Jiang Yifeng pondered over the information he had just learned, stroking his chin thoughtfully. From Bai Moyu''s exnation, it became clear that his previous assumptions were all wrong. The figures who had appeared in the simtion, destroying the Southern Regions with one hand and one foot, were not opposing forces but were actually working together. They were part of the radical faction from the Immortal Realm, aiming to destroy the Southern Regions and eliminate the man and woman who had previously blocked the actions of their Saint realm members. They couldn''t allow those two powerful individuals to recover! As for the conservative faction in the Immortal Realm, were they truly just worried that the two strong individuals had hidden tricks up their sleeves? Were they concerned that these two might face unforeseen changes? Was that why they were stopping the radicals? Jiang Yifeng felt that it might not be that simple. Perhaps these conservatives were actually the backup left by those two powerful individuals. And as for the man and woman, Jiang Yifeng was now eighty percent sure they were his parents. After all, in the previous simtion, his father, Jiang Fushan, had indeedmanded the Saint realm expert, Immortal Thirteen, and others. Perhaps Immortal Thirteen and his group were the so-called conservatives? That didn''t seem right. From the previous simtion, Immortal Thirteen appeared to be passive, forced by some kind of restriction to assist his father. So, from the known information, it could be deduced that the Saint realm experts in the Immortal Realm had split into three factions: the radicals, the conservatives, and the puppets like Immortal Thirteen, who were manipted by his father. With this realization, Jiang Yifeng finally understood why the Immortal Realm, despite its strength, hadn''t been able to conquer the Nine Mystic Realm. The internal power dynamics were tooplex. It wasn''t as harmonious as it seemed; rather, they were mutually restraining each other! And besides the powerful figures from the Immortal Realm, what about the Saint realm experts from the Nine Mystic Realm? They were said to have betrayed the Nine Mystic Realm, but where were they? Had they gone to invade other realms like the Immortal Realm? Or had they joined the Immortal Realm? Or perhaps, like Bai Moyu, they were hiding? Jiang Yifeng shook his head at the thought. Perhaps all of these scenarios were possible! It was even likely that some were still resisting the Immortal Realm, but he just hadn''t encountered them in the simtion yet. After a brief contemtion, he turned his attention back to the simtor.[You then asked Bai Moyu many questions.] [Most of them matched your previous conclusions from the simtion!] [This included the fact that Bai Moyu and the Mystic Turtle were indeed working together.] [To be precise, Bai Moyu had "bought off" the Mystic Turtle.] [As for the reasons, there were two!] [First, to have the Mystic Turtle help monitor the Southern Regions and leave a passage for people from the Celestial Verdant Sect toe and go.] [Bai Moyu wanted to bring back Guo Qing from the Heavenly Profound Sword.] [However, Guo Qing was stubborn. Even after bing a Sword Spirit, he refused to hide with Bai Moyu and live in obscurity.] [Second, Bai Moyu also had the Mystic Turtle assist in allowing those who broke through to the Immortal realm in the Southern Regions to pass through the Endless Sea!] [Bai Moyu believed that those who could quietly undergo Tribtion Crossing and be immortals in the Southern Regions, avoiding the eyes of the Immortal Realm, were likely the two seniors returning after re-cultivation.] [If those two seniors returned, Bai Moyu felt the crisis of the Nine Mystic Realm could be resolved.] [He wouldn''t have to hide anymore.] [As for what benefit Bai Moyu gave the Mystic Turtle?] [Bai Moyu hesitated for a long time and said he merely hinted at the power of the Saint realm!] [It must be said, the "buying off" by a Saint realm expert is indeed straightforward and unadorned!] [Later, you also inquired about the situation of the Saint realm experts in the Nine Mystic Realm.] [You didn''t believe they all perished in battle.] [Moreover, Bai Moyu had mentioned before that many Saint realm experts had betrayed the Nine Mystic Realm.] [Bai Moyu said he didn''t know the recent situation.] [He said he didn''t dare to casually use his Saint realm cultivation, fearing being forced to take sides by the Saint realm experts of the Immortal Realm!] [So he was unaware of recent events.] [He only knew that most of the former Saint realm experts of the Nine Mystic Realm had joined various factions of the Immortal Realm.] [A few, like him, had hidden away or left the Nine Mystic Realm.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [Truly resisting Saint realm experts were few and far between.] ... [In the blink of an eye, half a day passed, and you left through the Bronze Gate with Little Peach in your arms.] [Bai Moyu also sealed himself again, returning to his previous peak of Tribtion Crossing state!] [Up to now, you could say your mission was aplished.] [Southern Regions, Nine Mystic Realm, Immortal Realm, and a series of issues now had a rough outline in your mind.] [The only remaining questions were about the identities of the man and woman.] [Were they really your parents?] [And who taught the Immortal n the method to devour the Heavenly Dao?] [Besides these, there were questions about why Little Peach could erupt, who she was, and your own origins?] [But you felt these were all rted to the simtor.] [You knew that asking others would make it difficult to find the answers.] [In the following days, you settled in the Celestial Verdant Sect.] [With Little Peach''s previous outburst, you directly obtained the position of Supreme Elder in the Celestial Verdant Sect.] [You could nowmand everything in the Celestial Verdant Sect.] [With this condition.] [You naturally wouldn''t miss the opportunity.] [Thus, you began to use the resources of the Celestial Verdant Sect to cultivate extensively.] [In the blink of an eye, several years passed.] [In the sixtieth year, your Pill Refining Technique made some progress, advancing to a second-grade Immortal Pill Master!] [In the same year, Little Peach fully recovered.] [In the eightieth year, your Pill Refining Technique advanced to a third-grade Immortal Pill Master.] [In the same year, your talent as a Late Bloomer was triggered.] [Afterward, your cultivation efficiency increased rapidly.] [In the one hundred and fiftieth year, your cultivation broke through to the early stage of the three-star Ancient God realm!] [Your Pill Refining Technique also advanced to a sixth-grade Immortal Pill Master!] [By now, your Pill Refining Technique was difficult to improve further.] [Because your cultivation was insufficient to support refining seventh-grade Immortal Pills.] [However, even as a sixth-grade Immortal Pill Master, you understood the terrifying power of a Pill Master.] [Because now, you could refine Enlightenment Pills that directly elerated theprehension of the power ofws for Immortal realm experts.] [You tried an Enlightenment Pill and directly entered a state of enlightenment for half a year.] [It significantly enhanced your understanding of thews.] [This effect felt equivalent to using your umted "Inevitable Comprehension" talent.] [Besides the Enlightenment Pill, there were many other pills that could enhance strength above the Immortal realm, which you could now refine.] [Unfortunately, you tried some of these pills, but they didn''t significantly enhance your abilities.] [You spected it might be due to your cultivation in the Divine Dao.] [However, just being able to refine Enlightenment Pills already proved the power of Pill Refining Technique.] [After all, there were no usage restrictions on Enlightenment Pills. As long as resources were sufficient, one could continuously consume them toprehend thews!] Chapter 191: The time has come, Young Friend, farewell [Time flies, and a hundred years pass in the blink of an eye.] [In the two hundred and fiftieth year, during these years, aside from cultivating, you spent most of your time collecting materials to refine Enlightenment Pills, desperately crafting them.] [Your cultivation level only improved slightly.] [But over these years, you have managed to refine and store 30 Enlightenment Pills.] [Don''t underestimate the number of 30 Enlightenment Pills.] [It''s all because the materials needed to refine Enlightenment Pills are extremely precious.] [You scoured the treasure vaults of the Celestial Verdant Sect and spent a century collecting materials from outside to gather enough for these Enlightenment Pills.] [But thinking about it, it''s understandable, as the effects of the Enlightenment Pill are truly extraordinary.] [Although it''s only a sixth-grade Immortal Pill, its real effects and practicality are even better than some ninth-grade Immortal Pills.][It is ssified as a sixth-grade Immortal Pill only because its refining difficulty isn''t that high, and a sixth-grade Immortal Pill Master can barely refine it.] [However, the real challenge of the Enlightenment Pill lies in collecting those precious materials.] [Of course, if the alchemist''s grade is higher, the effects of the refined Enlightenment Pills will be better.] [You look at the 30 Enlightenment Pills in your hand, choosing not to use them but storing them in a jade bottle.] [You know that now in the Eastern Regions, it''s already very difficult to gather materials for refining Enlightenment Pills.] [So, you stop refining pills.] [Instead, you begin to focus on cultivating formations.] [In the Dao of Formations, Bai Moyu is quite skilled.] [After all, the formations in the Southern Regions were all set up by Bai Moyu.] [So, you directly seek him out to learn from him.] [With only the peak of Tribtion Crossing, Bai Moyu naturally can''t teach you much.] [Thus, you are once again brought into the Bronze Gate.] [And apanying you, of course, is Little Peach.] [With Little Peach around, you have the confidence to negotiate with Bai Moyu!] [You sessfully receive guidance from Bai Moyu.] [In the three hundredth year, you sessfully break through to be a fourth-grade Immortal Formation Master in the Dao of Formations.] [In the three hundred and fiftieth year, Bai Moyu suddenly seems a bit lost.] [He murmurs, "It''s all in chaos, everything is in chaos!"] [You frown slightly, initially thinking he was referring to your chaotic cultivation in formations, not immediately grasping his meaning.] [But soon, you realize something is wrong.] [At this moment, Bai Moyu slightly raises his head, as if looking through the thick stone wall towards the outside world.] [You keep recalling previous simtions.] [What happened this year?] [After a long time, you remember that in previous simtions, you only survived to 350 years a few times.] [Except for the time affected by your Cmity Tribtion Body.] [This year, the only event was the blood rain falling in the Western Regions!] [In an instant, you understand, the battle of the Saints has begun.] [However, for now, it doesn''t seem to affect you.] [But, you start to wonder, in thest simtion, the world''s destruction, was it really just the influence of your Cmity Tribtion Body?] [Could it be that the battles of these Saint realm powerhouses inherently lead to the world''s destruction, and your Cmity Tribtion Body merely elerated the process?] [The more you think about it, the more likely it seems.] [Otherwise, for a world to go from intact toplete copse in just a few hundred years, the effect of your Cmity Tribtion Body seems too great.] [However, even if you realize this, there''s nothing you can do; your current strength can''t stop it.] [You can only strive to cultivate more diligently before the world is destroyed, to improve as much as possible.] [So, you stop overthinking and focus on cultivating even harder.] [In the four hundredth year, you finally reach the level of a fifth-grade Immortal Formation Master.] [In the four hundred and thirtieth year, while teaching you, Bai Moyu''s expression suddenly changes.] [Then, his entire aura turns murderous.] [He murmurs, "Everyone thinks I''m timid and afraid of trouble, living in hiding, but little do they know I''m just waiting for the right moment!"] [His words seem like self-talk, yet also as if spoken for you to hear.] [Immediately after, Bai Moyuughs heartily, "The time hase, farewell, Young Friend!"] [As soon as he finishes speaking, Bai Moyu disappears from where he stood.] [What just happened?] [You recall for a moment and instantly understand.] [It seems the previous spection was correct.] [This year is the same year in one of the simtions when your father and mother fought against those in the Saint realm.] [It seems the possibility that the man and woman were your father and mother is now a hundred percent.] [And this Bai Moyu was also a piece they left behind.] [Now that the full-scale battle has begun, Bai Moyu should also be going to join the fight.] [However, you can''t get involved in any of this.] [You only think briefly before continuing to cultivate.] [In the blink of an eye, several decades pass.] [In the five hundredth year, your Formation Dao advances to the level of a sixth-grade Immortal Formation Master!] [Wanting to advance further in the Formation Dao, your cultivation level has be a hindrance.] [So, you begin to focus all your efforts on improving your cultivation level.] [In the blink of an eye, another thirty years pass.] [In the five hundred and thirtieth year, you suddenly feel a sense of foreboding.] ["Boom!" A loud noise, and the entire Eastern Regions begin to copse.] [Inside the Bronze Gate where you are, even with the formations left by Bai Moyu, cracks start to appear.] [And at this moment, Little Peach''s aura begins to change again.] [Seeing this, you feel reassured.] [Since Little Peach can still unleash her power, you should be able to avoid this cmity.] [After all, you know that when Little Peach fully unleashes her power, she can almost instantly defeat those in the Saint realm.] [But just a few secondster, Little Peach''s aura bes unstable.] [Her strength fluctuates, sometimes increasing, sometimes decreasing.] [From her eyes, you seem to see urgency.] [You are somewhat puzzled.] [After thinking carefully, you suspect that perhaps her previous outburst made it more difficult to cross time and space again.] [Or perhaps she encountered trouble in another time and space!] [But regardless of the reason, your current situation doesn''t seem good.] [At this moment, the space within the Bronze Gate where you arepletely copses.] [You see the outside world.] [At this moment, the outside world is already riddled with holes, with no intactnd in sight.] [In the void, you see Bai Moyu and several other Saint realm powerhouses engaged in battle.] ["Boom," a Saint-level spell heads towards you.] [Death is imminent!] [A sense of fatal crisis arises in your heart.] [This isn''t a deliberate attack on you, just the aftermath of the battle between those in the Saint realm.] [But even so, you can''t withstand it, nor can you dodge it!] [Just as the aftermath of the Saint-level spell is about to hit you, Little Peach suddenly appears in front of you.] [At this moment, she has only reached the Great Principal Golden Immortal level, not yet advancing to the Saint realm, but she still stands out without hesitation!] [She gently pushes you into the void, away from the battlefield of the Saints.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [And she herself perishespletely in the aftermath of the Saint battle.] Chapter 192: State of Mind Breakthrough, Broken Mirror in Reality [Temporarily escaping danger, you couldn''t care less about anything else and hurriedly moved through the void, trying to leave the area where the Saint realm experts were battling.] [Those Saint realm experts seemed not to care about you, an insignificant ant.] [You sessfully left the area.] [However, as you reached the edge of the "Eastern Regions" and prepared to leave, what you saw made your heart tremble even more!] [Looking around, you couldn''t find a single intact space.] [Everywhere was filled with chaotic space currents!] [These chaotic space currents were extremely dangerous, and with your current cultivation, crossing them would be a near-death experience!] [You found yourself in a dilemma.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [Now, braving the chaotic space currents meant almost certain death.][Staying here also meant you could be killed at any moment by the aftermath of the Saints'' battles!] [As you hesitated, Bai Ruoxue appeared beside you.] [She had already fully restored her cultivation.] [Using the Eye of Insight to observe her, you found only question marks.] [You realized that Bai Ruoxue, at her peak, had at least the strength of a Quasi-Saint.] [Previously, you thought she wouldn''t be weak, but you didn''t expect her to be this strong.] [However, now wasn''t the time to think about these things.] [You looked at Bai Ruoxue, wondering if she could take you away from here.] [In this simtion, you were acquainted with Bai Ruoxue.] [However, she didn''t have a good impression of you.] [After all, you had dominated the Celestial Verdant Sect for hundreds of years.] [You had been draining the sect''s resources, so naturally, Bai Ruoxue didn''t think highly of you.] [Now that you needed her help, you didn''t know how to ask.] [Unable to think of a good excuse, just as you were about to humbly request her help, Bai Ruoxue reached out, grabbed you, and walked into the chaotic space currents.] [In truth, Bai Ruoxue really didn''t want to help you.] [Your past actions in the Celestial Verdant Sect were truly despicable, squandering almost all the sect''s resources.] [Not only that, but to refine the Enlightenment Pill, youmanded many disciples to venture into dangerous ces to find immortal herbs for you.] [As a result, the Celestial Verdant Sect lost many disciples.] [Bai Ruoxue, having just restored her full cultivation, was originally nning to help her father, Bai Moyu.] [But who knew Bai Moyu would send her a message, asking her to take you to a safe ce.] [He said you might be the hope of the Nine Mystic Realm, or even the entire world.] [Initially, Bai Ruoxue didn''t believe it at all.] [How could a savior watch their maid die, watch those around them die, and then run away themselves?] [But there was no choice; Bai Moyu''s words were firm: your maid could reverse time and space toe here, so your origins must be extraordinary!] [Now that the two senior experts, a man and a woman, had failed, you might be the world''s only hope.] [Bai Ruoxue understood the situation and, hearing her father Bai Moyu say this, knew it was true.] [So, reluctantly, she came to rescue you from danger.] [You were led by Bai Ruoxue, constantly moving through the chaotic space currents.] [In the blink of an eye, three days passed.] [Bai Ruoxue had brought you to a safend.] [ording to Bai Ruoxue, this was one of the few safe ces left in the entire world.] [That''s right, the entire world, not just the Nine Mystic Realm.] [During these days, you asked Bai Ruoxue about the situation.] [You roughly understood the current state of affairs.] [ording to Bai Ruoxue, it wasn''t just a war between the Immortal Realm and the Nine Mystic Realm.] [It was a great conflict engulfing the entire world.] [Even the strongest Immortal Realm''s Heavenly Dao was nearly shattered.] [As for the reason?] [Bai Ruoxue couldn''t exin clearly.] [But she said it was no longer just about seizing fragments of the Heavenly Dao; even Saint realm experts had begun hunting each other, plundering each other''s Dao Fruits!] [After bringing you to the safe area, Bai Ruoxue didn''t stay long and immediately turned to leave.] [It seemed she was preparing to help Bai Moyu in battle!] [With only Quasi-Saint cultivation, participating in a battle of Saints was likely a one-way trip.] [You were unaware of this!] [Of course, even if you knew, with your Absolute Rationality, you wouldn''t care.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng frowned slightly. Why did it feel like the simtor was mocking him? However, he also fell into deep thought. It seemed he had indeed be a ve to power! His reliance on Absolute Rationality seemed a bit too heavy. No, it wasn''t that his reliance on Absolute Rationality was too heavy. Rather, after using Absolute Rationality so many times, his own personality seemed to be gradually aligning with it. Although not to an extreme degree. But during his simtions, apart from a few people he cared about, he seemed indifferent to the lives of others. Even if they weren''t enemies. He seemed to kill them at will. He had lost his reverence for life. It shouldn''t be like this! While being ruthless to enemies for survival was understandable. But indiscriminately harming the innocent, was it really okay? Even if it was just in a simtion. But was the simtion really just a simtion? Wasn''t it another world? A parallel timeline? After all, the simtor had clearly indicated before that it could traverse time and space to simte the past. Actually, that already proved that the simted world truly existed! Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng suddenly had an epiphany. In an instant, his cultivation in reality broke through. He directly advanced to the early stage of the three-star Ancient God realm. Jiang Yifeng was stunned by his own change. A realm that required hundreds of years of cultivation in the simtion. Had broken through in reality in just a few seconds? And everything seemed so natural. Jiang Yifeng sighed softly. "Indeed, the higher the cultivation, the more difficult the breakthrough conditions. It''s not just aboutws, spiritual energy, or resources; it also requires a state of mind!" Actually, Jiang Yifeng had understood this principle before. But not deeply, and he didn''t know how to improve his state of mind. Unexpectedly, by chance. It led to a breakthrough in his state of mind. It seems, to improve his state of mind, he really should use Absolute Rationality less. He should even find opportunities to use deep simtion to experience it. When deep simtion appeared before, the simtor had actually mentioned it was mainly for improving his state of mind. However, he had always focused on improving his cultivation and hadn''t paid attention to it. With this breakthrough in his state of mind leading to a breakthrough in his realm. Jiang Yifeng felt that he should indeed focus on improving his state of mind. Without thinking further, he looked at the development of the simtor. Chapter 193: Sense of crisis! Its time for reality to take action After Bai Ruoxue left, you began to explore this unknownnd. Thisnd isn''trge, only a few thousand square kilometers. It''s even smaller than the original Southern Regions. You finished exploring it in less than a day. Indeed, there is no danger on thisnd. Not only is there no danger, but there are no people, no resources, and almost no spiritual energy. It''s difficult to even cultivate here. Seeing this situation, you can only smile wryly. Without the ability to cultivate, what''s the point of hiding here?However, your rational mind hasn''t given up hope. You''ve settled down here, waiting for the right opportunity, hoping the spatial turbulence outside might weaken. When that timees, you''ll have to find another ce to cultivate. But this wait couldst a lifetime. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of years passed. In the seventh hundred year, you feel the spatial turbulence not only hasn''t weakened but has be more intense. By the eighth hundred year, your safend of several thousand square kilometers has shrunk to just a few dozen kilometers. The rest of thend has beenpletely swallowed by the spatial turbulence. In the ninth hundred year, you are swept into the spatial turbulence. You didn''t die; you are still struggling. You stabilize your state of mind, seeking a way to survive within the spatial turbulence. In the 901st year, you see several corpses of Saint realm beings in the spatial turbulence. In the 902nd year, the spatial turbulence bes even more violent. In the 903rd year, you are covered in wounds, but the stacking of various talents allows you to barely hold on. In the 910th year, a more deadly crisis arrives. The world begins to copse, to annihte! And this copse, this annihtion, starts from within the spatial turbulence. You be one of the lost souls. You died at the age of 930! This simtion ends. One-time talent: Reward +1 triggered! You can choose three rewards to exchange from this simtion. Meek Person (Talent), Sixth-grade Immortal Formation Master, Sixth-grade Immortal Pill Master, Enlightenment Pill (30 pieces), Cultivation. Meek Person (Talent): Price 100 origin values. Sixth-grade Immortal Formation Master: Price 600 million origin values. Sixth-grade Immortal Pill Master: Price 600 million origin values. Enlightenment Pill (30 pieces): Price 3 billion origin values. Cultivation: Price 0 origin values. (Note: Due to special reasons, the host''s real-world cultivation is roughly consistent with the simted cultivation, so no origin values are needed.) Note: Should the talent Absolute Rationality be ced into the talent pool? "Yes!" Jiang Yifeng immediately chose to throw Absolute Rationality into the talent pool. Then, he looked at the rewards from this simtion. There was no need to consider the rewards this time. His cultivation had broken through in reality due to a sudden breakthrough in his state of mind. Definitely not choosing that. As for the "Meek Person" talent? Even if it seemed like Absolute Rationality made it shine in this simtion, in reality, it can only be a toy, with little practical use! After all, those with low cultivation, even without this talent, can directly crush with sheer strength. It''s just a bit more troublesome. So he made his choice directly. "Choose Sixth-grade Immortal Formation Master, Sixth-grade Immortal Pill Master, Enlightenment Pill (30 pieces)!" As soon as he spoke, several electronic voices from the simtor sounded. "Ding, congrattions to the host for bing a Sixth-grade Immortal Formation Master, deducting 600 million origin values, remaining origin values." "Ding, congrattions to the host for bing a Sixth-grade Immortal Pill Master, deducting 600 million origin values, remaining origin values." "Ding, Enlightenment Pill (30 pieces) has been ced in the host''s storage ring, deducting 3 billion origin values, remaining origin values." In an instant, Jiang Yifeng felt his transformation. At this moment, he felt that many formation patterns he didn''t understand before now became instantly clear. His Pill Dao was the same. He had never actually refined pills in reality, but now he felt as if he could easily refine many kinds of ordinary pills. In addition, his mind was filled with many new formation diagrams and pill recipes. This made Jiang Yifeng''s lips curl into a smile. He had hit the jackpot. He had been worried that the Formation Dao and Pill Dao only had grades, without formation diagrams and pill recipes. He had nned to find another opportunity in the next simtion to remember more through deep simtion. Now it seemed he had overthought it. The simtor was very reliable. However, these were just minor gains. Jiang Yifeng was more concerned about the Enlightenment Pill. He quickly opened his storage ring. A cyan jade bottle appeared in his hand. Opening the jade bottle, several light golden pills came into Jiang Yifeng''s view. A refreshing fragrance wafted over. Instantly, Jiang Yifeng felt his senses clear. In that moment, he seemed to have a clearer perception of thews drifting in the void. "No way!" Jiang Yifeng quickly covered the jade bottle. He was just a moment away from entering an enlightenment state.N?v(el)B\\jnn It''s not that he didn''t want to enter enlightenment. He was worried about using up the pill''s effects. This thing cost him a full 3 billion origin values. How could he use it so easily? Of course, he had to use it in a simtion to maximize the benefits. Carefully storing the Enlightenment Pill, Jiang Yifeng began to think about what to do next. At this point, his simtion attempts were used up. The next simtion would be a weekter. However, he didn''t n to waste this week. After all, from this simtion, he learned that the world would be destroyed in over 900 years. This simtion didn''t have the influence of his Cmity Tribtion Body talent. This gave Jiang Yifeng a sense of urgency. Whether that world is a parallel world or the real world, Jiang Yifeng must treat it as the real world. This is no joke; he can''t afford to gamble. In reality, he must take action. So, in the following days, Jiang Yifeng visited the branches of the Immortal Arrival Sect several times. Unnoticed, he acquired many treasures. Then he began to massively refine pills below the immortal grade. From Qi Refining to Tribtion Crossing, he refined all kinds of pills. He wanted to use these pills to quickly elevate Little Peach and his father''s cultivation. To raise them to a higher realm before the world is destroyed. Actually, with the simtor, Jiang Yifeng was confident he could elevate his strength above the Saint realm before then. He could also stop those Saint realm battles. But he had a feeling. Even if he stopped the Saint realm battles, he still couldn''t prevent the world''s destruction. Unless he had absolutely invincible strength. This premonition was very strong! It was precisely because of this that he was eager to enhance the strength of those around him. As for the dangers brought by his father''s breakthrough? It didn''t matter anymore. The phenomenon of breaking through to Core Formation? The Immortal Arrival Sect was no longer a threat. As for breaking through to the Immortal realm? That''s not something that happens overnight. Jiang Yifeng thought that by then, he might already be unafraid of Saint realm powerhouses. If worstes to worst, he could leave the Southern Regions early. Anyway, his father wouldn''t be in danger; after all, there was still an unseen mother protecting him. Exposure would be exposure! Chapter 194: Ancient God Sect A week passed in the blink of an eye. During this time, Jiang Yifeng distributed all the pills he had refined to Little Peach and his father, Jiang Fushan. With his current pill refining technique, crafting pills below the immortal grade was as easy as pie. He could casually produce tens of thousands of them. In just this week, the pills he refined had filled several storage rings. With so many pills, Jiang Fushan and Little Peach could practically eat them like meals. This would further enhance their already rapid breakthrough speed. Jiang Yifeng also instructed his father and Little Peach to teach the Immortal Dao to some trustworthy individuals. After all, the pills could support more people.With Jiang Yifeng''s current pill refining skills, he could easily create a batch of strong practitioners. And it wouldn''t even take that long. This is the terrifying aspect of a high-grade alchemist. As for why Jiang Yifeng was doing this? There was no reason! It was merely his first time refining pills in reality. He had no estimate of his refining efficiency or the sess rate. identally, he refined too many. Little Peach and his father, Jiang Fushan, couldn''t possibly use them all. And these low-level resources were already useless to him. Why not cultivate some subordinates? Maybe they woulde in handy someday? At this moment, the simtion count had refreshed. But Jiang Yifeng didn''t n to simte immediately. From previous simtions, he knew this world would be destroyed in just over 900 years. He currently had no means to counter this and couldn''t escape the fate of death. In just over 900 years, at his current realm, without special resources, it would be difficult to make significant progress. Given this, he might as well save up three simtions and then experience a cross-time simtion. Perhaps in another time and space, he could extend the simtion time and gain more improvements? With this thought, Jiang Yifeng wasn''t in a hurry. However, in the following time, he didn''t continue to do nothing. Instead, he flew around ording to the Southern Regions map in his mind. He wanted to observe if the information obtained in reality matched that from the simtion. Of course, it was just an observation. He also deliberately avoided the Endless Sea. After all, the Mystic Turtle there was at a higher realm than him and could contact Bai Moyu. In reality, he didn''t want to connect with Bai Moyu just yet. In fact, even now, Jiang Yifeng held a sliver of hope. If there was any difference between the simtion and reality, would it mean that the world''s destruction in the simtion wouldn''t happen in reality? ? ... Half a monthter, Jiang Yifeng returned silently to the Jiang Family Mansion. He had confirmed that the Southern Regions in reality were indeed consistent with the simtion. Thispletely extinguished his hopeful thoughts. Back in his room, Jiang Yifeng sighed. "Ah, I really just want to do nothing!" "But with the world on the brink of destruction, how can I?" The once slightlyzy young man became a bit more serious. Then he silently recited, "Start the cross-time simtion, target three hundred million years ago!" [Ding, starting cross-time simtion, consuming 3 simtion attempts, remaining attempts: 0!] [Targeting: three hundred million years ago!] [Randomly selecting target...] [Ding: Acquired identity as thest disciple of the Ancient God Sect, named Jiang Feng!] [Ancient God Sect: Known as thest sect of the Divine Dao.] It was Jiang Yifeng''s first time experiencing a cross-time simtion. Previously, he was curious about how he would appear three hundred million years ago. And even if he appeared three hundred million years ago, would his identity be fabricated by the simtor, or would he just be a nobody? Now it seemed, neither was the case! This seemed somewhat simr to the possession talent from before. And also somewhat like a transmigration. Directly inheriting an identity that originally existed in that world. The simtor even thoughtfully chose someone who practiced the Divine Dao for him.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om It seems that the simtor has some limitations when traversing time and space. It doesn''t dare to go too far. While he was lost in thought, the simtor''s voice sounded again! [Ding, would you like to spend 1000 origin values to randomly draw a talent?] "Yes!" [Drawing talent, deducting 1000 origin values, remaining origin values.] [Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining the Orange Talent: Invincible Will.] [Invincible Will]: With me, invincible, forge an invincible heart through battle. (Hint: Each time you win a battle at the same realm or higher, you will gain some insights and rewards!) [Acquired one-time talent: Last Stand!] [Last Stand]: Before dying, you will instantly recover all injuries and unleash a peerless strike! (Note: After the talent is triggered, regardless of whether the peerless strike is unleashed, you will die in 30 seconds!) "This..." After reading the talent introduction this time, Jiang Yifeng felt it was pushing him to be a battle maniac! However, it suited him just fine. [Ding, the host can choose to carry one talent from the talent pool!] [Talent Pool: Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root, Absolute Rationality, Cmity Tribtion Body!] "No!" This time, Jiang Yifeng decided not to take any talents from the talent pool. He directly chose to refuse. [Note: Due to the host''s insufficient strength, for the host''s safety, deep simtion is not supported in the cross-time simtion!] [The 31st simtion begins!] [On the first day, you arrive at a dpidated sect.] [After a brief moment of confusion, you realize you have entered the simtion.] [At the same time, you also receive Jiang Feng''s memories.] [You know that you are now thest disciple of the Ancient God Sect.] [This Ancient God Sect ims to practice the Ancient Divine Dao.] [But in reality, it''s just their own boast.] [This sect merely practices both the Immortal and Martial Dao.] [And because they practice both, they are proficient in neither.] [Thus, the Ancient God Sect has always been an unremarkable sect.] [The strongest headmaster only reached the Divine Transformation Realm!] [And now, the Ancient God Sect has only one person left.] [You organize these memories in your mind, and it makes you chuckle.] [You find it quite ridiculous!] [It turns out the Ancient God Sect is just a facade!] [However, ording to Jiang Feng''s memories, you know that although the Ancient God Sect doesn''t practice the Divine Dao, this secret is known only to each headmaster.] [That''s right, because Jiang Feng is thest disciple of the Ancient God Sect, he is both a disciple and the headmaster.] [He is the only one who knows this secret.] [Other disciples of the Ancient God Sect never knew this.] [They always believed they were practicing the Ancient Divine Dao.] [As for outsiders, they were even less aware.] [After all, the Ancient God Sect has always been an unremarkable sect.] [Those who could see through theirck of Divine Dao practice wouldn''t pay attention to such a weak sect.] [But you think, perhaps in the future, this Ancient God Sect might be a true Divine Dao sect.] Chapter 195: From now on, start making a name for yourself "In the future, this won''t be a lie, because you yourself are cultivating the Divine Dao." "And now that you are the sect master of this sect, the Ancient God Sect will naturally be a Divine Dao sect." "Of course, you definitely won''t be idle, taking in disciples for no reason." "However, it might be possible to make the ''Ancient God Sect'' famous!" "After all, your talent is invincible, a talent that requires battle." "As long as you fight multiple times and win, this Ancient God Sect will naturally be renowned on the Divine Martial Continent." "That''s right, from the original host''s memory, you also know the current location." "It is indeed the Divine Martial Continent." "As for more detailed information?""He only knows that their Ancient God Sect belongs to the territory of the second-rate sect, Extreme Heaven Sect!" "There''s no other useful information at all!" "The original host didn''t even know how big the Divine Martial Continent is." "Nor did he know how many sects there are on the entire continent!" "But thinking about it, it''s normal. The original host was just a minor cultivator from an unranked sect." "What could he possibly know?" "This leaves you a bit disappointed!" "After all, you''re still curious if the Divine Martial Continent you visited with the Death Substitute Doll before is the same ce, on the same timeline as here." "And whether the True Spirit Continent, Demonic God Continent, and Divine Martial Continent you possessed before have any connection with this simted Divine Martial Continent?" "Now, the original host''s memory has no information about these." "You feel that if there''s a chance, you still need to find out for yourself." "See if this world has Liang Dahu, Ye Xiaoqing." "If there''s the three-thousand-year-old youngdy Xia Zhishan you encountered in your simtion, or the Cangyun Sect." "If there''s a True Spirit Continent, Demonic God Continent beyond the Divine Martial Continent!" "Of course, these things are just kept in your heart, to be dealt with when there''s an opportunity!" "After organizing all the original host''s memories, you start to examine your own situation." "ording to the original host''s memory, Jiang Feng only had the cultivation of the Foundation Establishment stage." "You''re a bit worried if your cultivation has been brought over." "Do you need to re-cultivate?" "After some inspection, you indeed found a problem." "Your current cultivation is quite strange." "You seem to only have the cultivation of the Foundation Establishment stage, but there are several seals on your body." "You gently touch the seal." "In an instant, your cultivation breaks through to the Core Formation stage." "And one of the original seal patterns also disappears." "You follow the same method and continue to touch the seal patterns." "The seal patterns within your body flicker a few times, but do not disappear." "Your cultivation also doesn''t break through again." "Seeing this, you have some guesses in your heart." "Perhaps, your cultivation has been brought over." "It''s just that this cross-time simtion seems to have some restrictions." "It can''t unlock all your cultivation at once." "However, no matter what, it''s better than re-cultivating!" "After understanding your situation, you start to tidy up this dpidated sect." "After all, you are now the sect master of the Ancient God Sect." "You still need to live here for a while." "Living in a mess is notfortable." "In the blink of an eye, a month has passed." "You look at the que of the Ancient God Sect, the corners of your mouth slightly raised, murmuring, ''From now on, the Ancient God Sect will begin to make a name for itself!''" ? "After saying this, you leave the Ancient God Sect, heading into the distance." "After all, with your talent this time, you''re destined to fight!" "You can''t just hide in one ce to cultivate." "So, during this time, you''ve gathered a lot of information." "And it''s all about things that might trigger battles." "Things like secret realms? Adventures!" "These are your main targets for inquiry." "Unfortunately, the cultivators around here seem too weak." "Can''t find any useful information." "However, just two days ago, you learned that the Extreme Heaven Sect is going to hold a sect exchange meeting!" "They say it''s an exchange, but it''s really apetition. The Extreme Heaven Sect wants to show off its strength in this area." "And this is just the right opportunity to trigger your talent!" "Even safer than adventures or secret realms!" "After all, in exchangepetitions, there''s generally no life-threatening danger." "This is simply fantastic." "You silently give a thumbs-up to the Extreme Heaven Sect in your heart." "Hope they hold more of these events." "Three months pass in the blink of an eye." "Inside the Extreme Heaven Sect, it''s bustling with noise." "All the second and third-rate sects in this area have gathered here." "With the Ancient God Sect''s sect master token, you also participate." "Although you''re just the sect master of a ninth-rate sect." "Only showing the cultivation of the Divine Transformation Realm, but the Extreme Heaven Sect didn''t make any face-pping moves against you."n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om "That''s right, in these three months, a few more seals in your body have been unlocked, and your cultivation has improved again." "The speed at which your cultivation is recovering is faster than you imagined." "You smoothly enter the Extreme Heaven Sect, quietly waiting for the martial arts event." "In fact, you also thought before, if you participate in thispetition and keep winning, would you stand out too much?" "But after inquiring, you realize you were overthinking." "This world has many Chosen ones." "At your age, some have already be immortals." "You, with just the Divine Transformation Realm, are nothing special." "At your age, with your cultivation, in a second-rate sect like the Extreme Heaven Sect, you could only be an Inner Sect Disciple." "That''s right, just looking at cultivation, notbat power, your current level of talent is not rare for the Extreme Heaven Sect." "In fact, this is quite normal." "After all, in this world, even third-rate sects have Mortal Immortal realm ancestors overseeing them!" "Let alone the Extreme Heaven Sect, which is a second-rate sect." "So, there are indeed many Chosen ones joining the Extreme Heaven Sect." "You''re not worried about being too conspicuous now." "After all, even if you cause a stir in the Divine Transformation Realm, so what?" "Their direct disciples have long surpassed this realm." "So, at this moment, you feel no pressure at all." "Three days pass in the blink of an eye." "In these few days, the martial arts exchanges from Qi Refining to Nascent Soul stage have all concluded." "Although the number of participants wasrge!" "But without exception, the first ce in all realms was taken by the Extreme Heaven Sect." "This made the higher-ups of the Extreme Heaven Sect smile from ear to ear." "This undoubtedly proves that in this region, the Extreme Heaven Sect is undoubtedly number one." "Whether in overall strength or in each realm''s strength." "''Divine Transformation Realm exchange begins!''" "With the voice of an elder from the Extreme Heaven Sect falling." "In an instant, a secret realm treasurerger than the previouspetition appeared before everyone." Chapter 196: Performance time! [This secret realm artifact is specifically prepared for Spirit Transformation Realm duels and exchanges.] [After all, the intensity of battles varies with each realm, and the size and strength of the venue naturally differ!] [Of course, it''s possible to use a high-intensity secret realm artifact from the start.] [But correspondingly, stronger secret realm artifacts coverrger areas.] [If used for lower realms, and one side starts by avoiding and running away, it would render the duel meaningless and could be quite lengthy.] [This situation seems unlikely to happen, but in fact, it has happened before!] [Some lower-level cultivators are self-aware; they don''t necessarily aim to win but just hope to survive longer against the Chosen.] [To prove that they are not weak.] [This is also why different secret realms are used for duels and exchanges at each realm.][The secret realm for Spirit Transformation Realm duels appeared instantly.] [Many Spirit Transformation Realm experts were eager to try.] [ording to the previous introduction by the Extreme Heaven Sect elder, you know that this duel secret realm is almost rule-free.] [There are no draws, no numbering, not even a referee in this duel exchange.] [In fact, to be precise, the secret realm itself is the referee!] [These duel exchange secret realms have pre-set rules.] [Once you receive a fatal injury, you''ll be transported out of the secret realm.] [So, whoever remains in the secret realmst is the winner!] [The only restrictions are two: 1, the same realm; 2, only two people can enter the secret realm.] [Once there are two people in the secret realm, it will close.] [Until a winner is decided, the secret realm will reopen to let the winner out and start the next duel exchange.] [Of course, the winner can choose to continue fighting.] [There is no mandatory rule.] [After all, this is just an exchange match.] [Of course, each victoryes with rewards from the Extreme Heaven Sect.] [This is why many rogue cultivators and small sects want to participate!] [As for the so-called first ce, it''s just generally acknowledged, with no precise ranking.] [Soon, a disciple of the Extreme Heaven Sect was the first to step into the duel secret realm.] [You nced at him; this Extreme Heaven Sect disciple''s cultivation wasn''t high, only at the eighth level of the Spirit Transformation Realm!] [Not to mention other Spirit Transformation Realm disciples of the Extreme Heaven Sect, even from other sects, many present had higher cultivation than him.] [His cultivation could only be considered above average.] [That said, this Extreme Heaven Sect disciple fought extremely dominantly.] [Those from third-rate sects or even worse, rogue cultivators, even if their cultivation was higher, found it hard to be his match.] [This Extreme Heaven Sect disciple fought five consecutive battles and won all five!] [In the end, he voluntarily left the duel secret realm due to ack of spiritual energy.] [After that, another Spirit Transformation Realm disciple from the Extreme Heaven Sect stepped into the duel secret realm.] [The same situation happened again.] [Five consecutive battles, this Extreme Heaven Sect disciple won all again, then left on his own.] [...] [One battle after another, without exception, the Extreme Heaven Sect was victorious.] [Moreover, none of the disciples they sent out had a cultivation exceeding the eighth level of the Spirit Transformation Realm.] [All the Extreme Heaven Sect disciples were fighting across levels.] [It clearly showed that among these sects, the Extreme Heaven Sect was synonymous with invincibility.] [As for why this was the case?] [After watching a few battles, you figured out the reason.] [Battle Techniques and Inheritance!] [The battle techniques and inheritance of those third-rate sects were significantly inferior to those of the Extreme Heaven Sect.] [This is precisely why some disciples from third-rate sects, despite having stronger cultivation and more spiritual energy, couldn''t defeat the Extreme Heaven Sect disciples.] [You guessed this might be why sects are divided into levels.] [Battle techniques and inheritance are truly crucial for cultivators.] [However, there are always exceptions.] [After several battles, finally, a rogue cultivator defeated a disciple of the Extreme Heaven Sect.] [Seeing this, your attention was immediately drawn.] [You looked at the rogue cultivator who defeated the Extreme Heaven Sect disciple.] [You weren''t curious about him but wanted to see the Extreme Heaven Sect''s reaction.] [Though you said, "Real men fight!"] [But as someone who has long practiced the cautious path, you prefer to think twice before acting.] [You worried that defeating an Extreme Heaven Sect disciple might have negative consequences.] [After all, this exchange match was clearly a venue for the Extreme Heaven Sect to showcase its strength.] [If they held a grudge and sought revengeter, you weren''t too worried.] [You felt you could soon recover all your strength.] [What you worried about was being targeted immediately!] [But it was clear you were overthinking.] [The victorious rogue cultivator was not only not targeted by the Extreme Heaven Sect but also received additional rewards beyond the duel victory.] [As for why the Extreme Heaven Sect did this? Whether it was for show or something else?] [You didn''t care!] [As long as there was no immediate danger!] [So, seeing this, you finally couldn''t sit still.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [After an Extreme Heaven Sect disciple won again and left the stage.] [Without a word, you stepped directly into the duel exchange secret realm.] [Upon entering the secret realm, you slightly raised the corner of your mouth and murmured, "Time for my performance!"] [Following you in was an Extreme Heaven Sect disciple.] [You used the Eye of Insight to check the information.] [Wang Fan: Seventh level of the Spirit Transformation Realm.] [Seeing this, you thought to yourself: Ordinary, easy to handle.] [At this moment, the Extreme Heaven Sect''s Wang Fan had a dark expression.] [He entered the secret realm right after you.] [He heard your murmured words clearly.] [Wang Fan was extremely displeased now.] [What''s going on? Looking down on him?] [All the senior brothers and sisters appeared first, waiting to be challenged.] [Their style was as cool as it could be!] [Why did the situation change when it came to him?] [He hadn''t even started showing off yet?] [He had recently learned some particrly shy battle techniques, just for today.] [But before he could start, you stole the show!] [However, soon, Wang Fan seemed to think of something.] [He raised one hand and shouted loudly, "Performance time!"] [That''s right, Wang Fan thought you were just muttering to yourself, and no one else heard it.] [But now he was different; he announced "Performance time!" loudly.] [This made everyone outside the secret realm hear it.] [With Wang Fan''s loud shout, the spectators outside the secret realm instantly erupted.] [It could only be said that he really pulled off the act perfectly.] [Seeing Wang Fan''s move, you almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.] [Brother, what''s going on? Why is there a slogan?] Chapter 197: You with such good luck "Since that''s the case, don''t me me for not ying fair, buddy!" Taking advantage of Wang Fan still being immersed in his act, you pped him hard. In an instant, Wang Fan snapped back to reality! Because he had already been thrown out of the secret realm of the duel. The duel was over. It ended under your mighty p. This sudden turn of events caught the spectators off guard. However, soon cheers erupted.N?v(el)B\\jnn Most of these people were disciples from third-rate sects.Over the past few days, they had been oppressed by the disciples of the Extreme Heaven Sect. Now, seeing you defeat them so effortlessly, everyone felt a sense of relief. Of course, most importantly, they saw hope. The Extreme Heaven Sect wasn''t invincible after all. There were also weaklings like Wang Fan. Indeed, most people didn''t think you were strong. They just thought Wang Fan was weak. Immediately, there were sighs of disappointment directed at Wang Fan. Many evenmented their bad luck for not having Wang Fan as their opponent. Hearing the sighs all around, Wang Fan felt bitter and speechless. Was he really weak? But he remembered that during the sect''s internalpetition, he was ranked in the top ten among the Divine Transformation Realm. Could it be that the senior brothers and sisters were letting him win? Even Wang Fan began to doubt his own strength. And those senior brothers and sisters from the Extreme Heaven Sect who had previously lost to Wang Fan all agreed that Wang Fan had overdone his act. Clearly, both had entered the secret realm, marking the start of the duel. Yet he still wanted to show off! They believed it was Wang Fan''s arrogance that led to your sneak attack, causing him to lose the match. Only the higher-ups of the Extreme Heaven Sect noticed something was amiss. On the viewing tform, the sect master of the Extreme Heaven Sect, Lu Jidao, brightened up when he saw you defeat Wang Fan in an instant. He said to an elder beside him, "Call all the Divine Transformation Realm disciples to watch!" As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Jidao seemed to think it wasn''t enough and added, "No, call the Void Refinement and even Body Integration Realm little brats to watch too!" The elder beside him didn''t act immediately but looked at Lu Jidao with a puzzled expression. Lu Jidao seemed to understand the elder''s confusion and smiled slightly. Then he said, "These little brats in the sect are too arrogant; it''s time for them to know there''s always someone better out there!" "You didn''t think I organized this martial arts exchange just to show off, did you?" The elder looked at Lu Jidao in confusion, thinking: Isn''t that the case? Lu Jidao saw through the elder''s thoughts and sighed, "No one understands me!" "Our region is too far from the center of the Divine Martial Continent, and our Extreme Heaven Sect has no realpetitors!" "This is not a good thing!" "As the saying goes, prosperity leads to decline. Without external pressure, our Extreme Heaven Sect won''tst long!" "Now that someone has finally appeared who can crush our sect''s disciples at the same level, of course, we have to let the disciples see!" "Give them some motivation to work hard!" "Yes, if possible, it''s best if they all get beaten up by this kid!" The more Lu Jidao spoke, the more excited he became, and the more feasible it seemed. Only the elder beside him felt a chill in his heart. It''s over, it''s over, the sect master is going to stir up trouble again, and the disciples are going to suffer. The elder silently mourned for the disciples and quickly took his leave! He had to quickly carry out the sect master''s orders. He hoped that the demon-like sect master wouldn''t think of torturing him. You were unaware of Lu Jidao''s thoughts. If you knew, you would surely say, "What a good person!" You''re eager for more battles right now! Just a moment ago, when you defeated Wang Fan, your Orange Talent of Invincible Will was triggered. In that brief moment, although you didn''t gain any insights, you felt the seal within you loosen a bit. This is a good thing. After all, your cultivation was too low after being sealed, and you don''t need any insights right now. Quickly restoring your cultivation is the most crucial thing. And this talent clearly can achieve that. So, you''re eager to keep fighting and winning. In this way, you will surely recover your cultivation quickly. You know you''re in a simtion, and only when you restore your cultivation to match reality will your further improvements be effective! Of course, you think the Invincible Will talent might only show its true strength after you fully recover your cultivation. An Orange Talent can''t be just about loosening a seal; that wouldn''t match its description. The duel exchange continues. The spectators outside, seeing you haven''t left the secret realm, know you''re nning to continue fighting. Soon, a Divine Transformation Realm disciple stepped into the secret realm. His name is Liu Ming, also a disciple of the Extreme Heaven Sect. In the sect, he has always ranked just below Wang Fan. His real strength is not much different from Wang Fan''s, just slightly weaker. But he always wanted to surpass Wang Fan. So, when he saw Wang Fan being pped out by you, he instantly felt his chance to prove himself hade. At this moment, Liu Ming thought to himself, "Wang Fan, this is the opportunity you gave me!" Actually, he knew in his heart that he wasn''t as good as Wang Fan. However, he believed you defeated Wang Fan only because Wang Fan was showing off and got careless, allowing you to sneak attack. So, he thought defeating you was his chance. His chance to surpass Wang Fan! You looked at Liu Ming standing there in a daze and felt puzzled. The disciples of the Extreme Heaven Sect seem to have something wrong with their heads! The previous Wang Fan wanted to show off before the duel even started. And now this one is standing there in a daze, even letting out a sinisterugh. You kindly thought to yourself, "Forget it, forget it; better send him out early to get treated!" Then, you pped Liu Ming on the head with a mighty swing. By the time Liu Ming reacted, he was already outside the secret realm. Now, Liu Ming''s mind was no longer thinking about Wang Fan but rather: Who am I? Where am I? And then he joined Wang Fan in a state of self-doubt! Liu Ming''s performance in the secret realm just now didn''t only seem off to you. Others also noticed. At this moment, all the spectators outside the secret realm were sighing. They were all marveling at your luck. In two consecutive battles, you encountered fools! You got two victory rewards for free. Chapter 198: A group of old six [Not long after, your third battle begins!] [This time, entering the arena is a Spirit Transformation Realm cultivator from a third-rate sect named Qi Shan.] [Right after Liu Ming was pped out of the secret realm by you, he rushed in immediately.] [He thought that perhaps the experts from the Extreme Heaven Sect who could fight above their level had alreadypeted earlier.] [The onesing up might be like Wang Fan and Liu Ming, not too bright and not very strong.] [He also wanted to pick up an easy win.] [So, being clever, he was the first to rush into the dueling secret realm while everyone else was still sighing.] [He thought today might be his battle to fame!] [After Qi Shan entered, he instantly unleashed his aura.][Although he thought you might not be strong, Qi Shan was not an arrogant person.] [He understood the principle of using full strength even when a lion hunts a rabbit!] [As Qi Shan''s aura unfolded, those watching outside the secret realm felt your luck had run out.] [This time, your opponent finally wasn''t a fool.] [And judging by his strength, he was quite strong, with a cultivation at the peak of the Spirit Transformation Realm.] [For a moment, many people anticipated you being knocked out of the secret realm by Qi Shan.] [As for why most people didn''t favor you?] [Of course, it was jealousy¡ªthey encountered two "fools," and they didn''t!] [Of course, you were unaware of all this.] [You watched Qi Shan''s outburst.] [And felt nothing.] [You simply infused a trace of the Silent Destruction Fist''s intent into your palm, then raised your hand and pped it forward.] ["p!" Before Qi Shan could react, he was outside the secret realm.] [In fact, when you dealt with Wang Fan and Liu Ming earlier, you also used some battle techniques.] [After all, you weren''t an arrogant person; not using battle techniques would be foolish, right?] [Outside the secret realm, Qi Shan finally experienced what Wang Fan and Liu Ming felt.] ["Who am I? Where am I?"] [He nced at you in the secret realm, wanting to say something!] [But Wang Fan and Liu Ming, who had been silent, grabbed him and stared at him with warning eyes.] [Qi Shan wanted to struggle but was firmly suppressed.] [Despite being at the peak of the Spirit Transformation Realm, he was unable to move under their suppression.] [He finally understood that Wang Fan and Liu Ming were not the weaklings people said they were; they were strong, much stronger than him.] [Qi Shan looked at Wang Fan and Liu Ming with aplex expression.] [He thought to himself: These two guys are also sly!] [He now understood why Wang Fan and Liu Ming didn''t say a word after losing.] [These two did it on purpose.] [They must have sensed your true strength, but they didn''t say anything.] [They were embarrassed and wanted others to be embarrassed too.] [Thinking of this, Qi Shan''s eyes lit up, and he silently walked over to Wang Fan and Liu Ming, joining them in silence.] [Waiting for the next brave soul.] [And the spectators, at this moment, also realized what was going on.] [Some people had already realized that perhaps you weren''t just lucky but truly had extraordinary strength.] [But many still thought Qi Shan''s cultivation was just for show.] [You were just lucky!] [It''s hard to correct some prejudices once they''re formed.] [Many even despised Qi Shan.] ["All show, no substance, just for show..." they said.] [However, Qi Shan had already figured it out and remained silent, just like Wang Fan and Liu Ming before.] [Then, your fourth match began.] [The opponent was also a cultivator at the peak of the Spirit Transformation Realm.] [One secondter, your p sent your opponent out of the secret realm.] [Another addition to the silent group.] [Fifth match, sixth match...] [In several consecutive battles, you ended each one with a single p.] [Once or twice might be luck, but consistently being lucky for ten matches?] [Is that possible?] [At this point, those who had prejudices against you finally realized something was wrong.] [Everyone understood they had misunderstood you before.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [You weren''t just lucky; you truly had the strength.] [Realizing this,] [No one dared to enter the secret realm to challenge you lightly anymore.] [Time ticked by.] [After dozens of minutes, you started to feel a bit bored waiting.] [However, you didn''t withdraw voluntarily.] [Who knows, maybe someone stubborn woulde in and give you points?] [Just a little more, and you could break a seal and restore your cultivation to the Void Refinement Realm.] [You didn''t want to miss this opportunity.] [And outside, no one urged you.] [After all, ording to the rules, if no one challenged you for half an hour, the secret realm would automatically transport you out.] [Of course, this would also mean the Spirit Transformation Realm dueling exchange waspletely over.] [You weren''t in a hurry, but someone else was getting anxious.] [At this moment, Lu Jidao, the sect master of the Extreme Heaven Sect, kept observing the distance!] ["Why aren''t those little bratsing yet?"] [ording to Lu Jidao''s n, you sweeping through the Spirit Transformation Realm with an invincible stance could put great pressure on the direct disciples of the Extreme Heaven Sect.] ?? [It could make them realize their shorings and correct their arrogant attitudes.] [Now that those direct disciples hadn''te, he was getting a bit impatient.] [After all, he knew those elite disciples were too arrogant.] [If they only heard about your invincible stance afterward, they definitely wouldn''t believe it.] [They would think it was because they weren''t there, so you could sweep through.] [This was why Lu Jidao wanted those elite disciples toe and watch, or even get taught a lesson by you.] [Lu Jidao felt that if the sect''s direct disciples couldn''t witness your invincible performance,] [The loss would be enormous!] [On a small scale, the disciples would miss an opportunity for psychological correction.] [On arger scale, it could affect the future of the Extreme Heaven Sect!] [At this moment, Lu Jidao thought to himself: "That old fellow Elder Liang didn''t do his job well. If we miss this, see how I''ll deal with himter!"] [You didn''t know Lu Jidao''s thoughts.] [If you knew, you would definitely say: Beating people up is what you''re best at; missing one chance is no big deal, as long as those disciples want a beating, you''re always willing to oblige!] [A few more minutes passed.] [As the time for you to be transported out of the secret realm approached.] [Finally, Elder Liang, who had been sent out by Lu Jidao, arrivedzily with a group of arrogant direct disciples.] Chapter 199: Is it just a namesake? Or...? [These direct disciples range from the Divine Transformation Realm to the Body Fusion Realm.] [Of course, there are even stronger ones, but they are older and more powerful.] [There''s no need to call upon those in the Divine Transformation Realm for this battle.] [At this moment, the young direct disciples all look remarkably simr.] [Their raised chins seem almost to pierce the sky.] [It can only be said, they truly belong to the same sect.] [Seeing the demeanor of the direct disciples, Lu Jidao''s face turned dark.] [He shouted coldly, "Come down!"] [Only then did the direct disciples restrain their arrogance and descend from the sky.][Among these direct disciples, only one man and one woman were in the Divine Transformation Realm.] [However, this does not mean these two have the weakest talent.] [On the contrary, their talent is the strongest among all the direct disciples.] [They both honed a Ten-Grade Golden Core during the Foundation Establishment stage.] [It was precisely the time spent refining their Golden Cores that caused their cultivation to not be as high as others.] [But their foundations are the strongest!] [They are also the disciples Lu Jidao favors the most.] [But it''s merely favor, nothing more.] [After all, as the sect master of a second-rate sect, Lu Jidao knows that a Ten-Grade Golden Core is merely the entry requirement for an Inner Sect Disciple in a first-rate sect.] [Indeed, three hundred million years ago, a Ten-Grade Golden Core was not rare.] [After all, in this era, rare resources are not scarce.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [It can be said that only by achieving a Ten-Grade Golden Core can one be considered a true Chosen.] [This is merely the baseline for distinguishing a Chosen!] [Lu Jidao looked at the two Divine Transformation Realm direct disciples and pointed to you in the secret realm, saying, "Who will challenge him?"] ["Sect Master, him? You want us to take action?" The female direct disciple nced at you in the secret realm and said with some disdain.] [This situation was not unexpected for Lu Jidao.] [He is well aware of the demeanor of the sect''s direct disciples.] [After pondering for a moment, Lu Jidao pointed at you and said to the two, "Whoever defeats him will have their cultivation resources doubled!"] [In truth, Lu Jidao is not certain you can win.] [Your current disyed strength is indeed strong, but how you would fare against a true Chosen, he is unsure.] [After all, he hadn''t deliberately investigated you before.] [He merely estimated from your previous duels that you are also a Chosen who honed a Ten-Grade Golden Core.] [Therefore, he didn''t promise the disciples an overly extravagant reward.] [Of course, even if he investigated you, he wouldn''t find much.] [Divine Dao, in this era, is a taboo, not understood by everyone!] [Although Lu Jidao is the sect master of a second-rate sect, his true strength is only at the Mortal Immortal realm, and his circle of contact is not high enough.] ?? [Hearing Lu Jidao''s words, the two direct disciples grinned.] [It seems the sect master is offering resources!] [However, they did notpete with each other.] [The male direct disciple smiled and said, "Junior sister, you go ahead!"] [The female direct disciple did not refuse, thanked him, and then said, "I''ll give you thirty percent of the resources!"] [Thus, she directly charged towards the duel secret realm.] [Seeing this, Lu Jidao''s thoughts were somewhatplicated.] [He didn''t know whether to be happy or worried.] [It''s good that the disciples are harmonious and united, but in the path of cultivation, withoutpetition, how can one reach higher?] [In fact, Lu Jidao now wants to use you to stimte the disciples''petitive spirit.] [The environment within the Extreme Heaven Sect is toofortable now.] [He hopes to use the external environment to give the disciples some pressure.] [In fact, other sects often send their disciples out for training.] [But the location of the Extreme Heaven Sect is too remote, too remote.] [Nearby, no one dares to provoke the Extreme Heaven Sect, not even demonic beasts, which flee at the name of the sect.] [There is simply no ce for the disciples to train.] [And going to more distant ces for training? The disciples'' strength is not enough.] [So, it''s quite awkward!] [Thus, Lu Jidao thought of holding martial exchanges every year.] [Hoping that some rogue cultivators or Chosen from other sects could give the disciples of the Extreme Heaven Sect some pressure.] [But over the years, instead of pressure, continuous victories have only made the disciples more arrogant.] [At this moment, Lu Jidao looked at you in the secret realm and muttered, "Kid, do your best, I hope you can really give them some pressure."] [And, just as Lu Jidao was lost in thought, the female direct disciple had already rushed into the duel secret realm.] [At the same time, the spectators instantly became excited.] [They all saw that this female disciple of the Extreme Heaven Sect is a direct disciple.] [In all these years of martial exchanges, no one has ever seen a direct disciple of the Extreme Heaven Sect take action.] [For a moment, everyone was filled with anticipation.] [Some even began to cheer for you.] [Hoping you could hold on a bit longer, to let them enjoy the performance of a direct disciple of the Extreme Heaven Sect.] [In an instant, the entire spectator square became lively.] [Even Wang Fan, Liu Ming, and others who originally had some grievances against you, those who became withdrawn after being defeated by you, couldn''t help but look towards the secret realm.] [Originally waiting and dozing off, you felt someone entering the secret realm and immediately looked over.] ["Huh? A girl?"] [Indeed, the first to rush into the duel secret realm was a girl about 18 or 19 years old.] [You didn''t let your guard down. Since the other party knows your previous achievements and still dares toe in, she must have some skills.] [So, you used the Eye of Insight to probe her strength.] [Su Mushuang: Direct disciple of the Extreme Heaven Sect, possesses unparalleled beauty, but due to her young age and limited experience, herbat ability is average!] ["What?" Your pupils shrank upon seeing her information!] [This name is exactly the same as your unseen mother from the previous simtion.] [Is it just a namesake? Or...?] [For a moment, your mind was in turmoil.] [And just as you were shocked and distracted, Su Mushuang was already attacking you.] [She wasn''t sneaking up; she simply didn''t pay attention to you.] [In her view, you were just there for her to earn cultivation resources.] [So, upon entering, she attacked directly; the sooner she acted, the sooner it would end!] [If it weren''t for the sect master saying that defeating you would double her cultivation resources, she wouldn''t even bother to duel you!] [Even though she already knew you had defeated many others of the same realm before.] [But she still didn''t think a disciple from a ninth-rate sect like you could have any real strength.] ["Bang!"] [In your moment of distraction, she struck you with a palm, causing a trickle of blood to flow from the corner of your mouth.] Chapter 200: Seems a bit familiar? [Youe back to your senses and wipe the blood from the corner of your mouth.] [You smile bitterly in your heart: "As expected, my mindset still isn''t strong enough!"] [Misled by just a name!] [The world is so vast, with so many people, and it was billions of years ago. How could it be the same person?] [Even a Saint realm expert would find it hard to live for billions of years!] [Of course, you are not aware of this; but that''s not the point!] [Even if someone could live that long, what are the chances you''d encounter them?] [The odds of that are far lower than it being someone with the same name.] [Thinking of this, your expression changes, and you get serious.][No matter what, you must win this duel.] [Restoring and enhancing your strength is key.] [Meanwhile, Su Mushuang is also in disbelief.] [Knowing that in this duel, if you suffer a fatal injury, you''d be transported out of the secret realm without life-threatening danger, she had just used her full strength in that palm strike!] [She could feel that you hadn''t used any defensive techniques.] [Yet, even so, you only suffered a minor injury?] [You have no idea what she''s thinking!] [At this moment, you start to fully activate the Silent Destruction Fist.] [With a punch, as the aura of your Silent Destruction Fist spreads, the flowers, grass, and trees in the duel secret realm begin to wither.] [You didn''t hold back this punch like you did in fights with others.] [After all, Su Mushuang is a Chosen.] [You don''t want to lose the duel due to carelessness.] [As your fist''s intent spreads, Su Mushuang immediately feels a sense of crisis, quickly casting several spells to intercept your Silent Destruction Fist.] [Unfortunately, it''s all in vain.] [Her spells are instantly obliterated upon contact with the Silent Destruction Fist.] [In fact, it''s not that Su Mushuang''s spells are weak.] [It''s just that your now perfected Silent Destruction Fist is too strong.] [This level of Silent Destruction Fist already contains a trace of the power ofws, which you shouldn''t be able to grasp at your current realm.] [It''s like using a cannon to swat a mosquito.] ["Boom!" The exit of the duel secret realm suddenly opens.] [Su Mushuang is instantly transported out of the secret realm.] [One move! She was defeated in just one move.] [At this moment, Su Mushuang''s senior brother, another direct disciple in the Divine Transformation Realm, hurried over.] [Seeing Su Mushuang''s silent demeanor, he was somewhat angry.] ["Junior sister, I''ll avenge you!" He left these words and was about to rush into the secret realm.] [But Su Mushuang stopped him in time, shaking her head: "Forget it, senior brother! We really aren''t strong enough."] [Su Mushuang recalled your punch just now.] [She knew that if it weren''t for the duel secret realm, where she was transported out in time, she would have perished!] [At this moment, she finally understood what the sect master often said: "There are always people better than you, and skies beyond skies!"] [Under Su Mushuang''s persuasion, the other direct disciple did not enter the duel secret realm.] [With Su Mushuang''s defeat, the spectators outside the secret realm fell silent.] [For a moment, there was not a sound.] [Everyone looked at you in the secret realm in disbelief.] [No one had expected you to be so strong.] [Even Lu Jidao was surprised.] [Secondster.] ["Amazing!" A voice shouted out.] [Soon, some rogue cultivators from third-rate sects began to cheer for you.] [No, actually, they weren''t just cheering for you.] [You gave them hope.] [Hope that someone from an ordinary sect could also crush a direct disciple from a high-ranking sect.] [Of course, everyone knew this was difficult.] [But as long as there was a precedent, they had a goal to strive for.] [After all, in the thousands of years before your appearance, no one had ever heard of a disciple from a nearby sect defeating a direct disciple of the Extreme Heaven Sect.] ? [Now you have be that legend.] [At this moment, the direct disciples beside Lu Jidao all silently lowered their proud heads!] [After all, they all knew Su Mushuang''s strength.] [Seeing this scene, Lu Jidao couldn''t help but smile.] [The effect was good!] [He looked at you in the secret realm.] [The more he looked, the more pleasing you seemed!] [But as he looked, he felt something was off.] [Why are you sitting down?] [Hmm, it seems like you''re about to break through?] [Lu Jidao didn''t know that just now, the moment you defeated Su Mushuang, a seal on you waspletely lifted.] [At this moment, you are restoring your cultivation to the Void Refinement Realm.] ["Boom!" Momentster, your strength was restored to the first level of the Void Refinement Realm!]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [Feeling your restored strength.] [You know your duel exchange is over.] [After all, the Extreme Heaven Sect''spetition only went up to the Divine Transformation Realm.] [Your current cultivation has already surpassed that.] [In an instant, you were also transported out of the secret realm.] [And at this moment, the direct disciple of the Extreme Heaven Sect, Su Mushuang''s senior brother, approached you.] ["I will surpass you and defeat you!"] [Leaving these words, he turned and left.] [You were puzzled.] [Who was that? What did he want?] [Previously, you couldn''t see the outside world from within the secret realm, so naturally, you didn''t know him.] [However, you felt he looked somewhat familiar!] [You were about to use the Eye of Insight to take a closer look.] [But just then, Lu Jidao came over to you.] [He warmly pulled you aside, showering you with concern.] [His demeanor was like seeing his own son.] [You didn''t understand why Lu Jidao was so enthusiastic towards you.] [But cautiously, you decided not to use the Eye of Insight on that mysterious person; instead, you exchanged pleasantries with Lu Jidao.] [Not long after, once you confirmed the duel exchange was over, you left in a hurry.] [Lu Jidao''s behavior was too suspicious, and you thought it best to leave early.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng frowned as he read this. Shouldn''t he stay at the Extreme Heaven Sect for now? What''s going on with Su Mushuang? And why does her senior brother look familiar? Isn''t it worth taking another look? However, Jiang Yifeng knew that his simted self didn''t have a god''s perspective. Lu Jidao, the sect master, suddenly being so warm was indeed unsettling. "Since that''s the case, let''s do a deep simtion!" Jiang Yifeng thought to himself. [Ding: Reminder, due to the long time span of the cross-time simtion, the host''s strength is insufficient, and deep simtion is temporarily unsupported!] As soon as he had the thought, the simtor''s prompt sounded. "This..." Jiang Yifeng was speechless. Alright! He would leave it to fate. However, he still noted down the suspicions about Su Mushuang and her senior brother. Then he continued to look at the simtor. Chapter 201: Arrive at the Central Region of the Divine Martial Continent [After you left the Extreme Heaven Sect.] [A young man and woman, under the watchful eye of Lu Jidao, also departed from the Extreme Heaven Sect.] [They were none other than Su Mushuang and her senior brother.] [After her battle with you, Su Mushuang realized there are always greater heights and stronger people; thus, they decided to travel far and train.] [Since there were no suitable training grounds near the Extreme Heaven Sect, they decided to venture further.] [Originally, Lu Jidao was not in favor of this, as the Divine Transformation Realm exploring the Divine Martial Continent was too dangerous.] [But thinking of the future of the Extreme Heaven Sect and his intention to use you as a stimulus for the disciples, he eventually agreed.] [Of course, you werepletely unaware of all this.] [At this time, you headed towards the central region of the Divine Martial Continent.][Over time, you learned that the closer you get to the center of the Divine Martial Continent, the more Chosen there are.] [You wanted to meet them.] [Moreover, during your time at the Extreme Heaven Sect, you found out that it is located in the southernmost part of the Divine Martial Continent.] [As long as you keep heading north, you''ll naturally get closer to the center of the Divine Martial Continent.] [But how long it would take, you did not know.] [It''s said to be very, very far.] [But that''s okay, you can train along the way.] [With your Invincible Will talent, as long as you fight opponents of the same realm or higher and win, you can gain something.] [Wandering outside, you''re bound to encounter some reckless people or demonic beasts!] [Time flows like water, and in the blink of an eye, several years have passed.] [In the tenth year, you have already distanced yourself from the Extreme Heaven Sect.] [Over these years, you have in countless demonic beasts of various levels, as well as many reckless cultivators.] [You are constantly in battle!] [There have been many battles with opponents of the same realm and higher.] [This has made the activation efficiency of your "Invincible Will" talent very high.] [Your cultivation has finally recovered to the three-star Ancient God realm parable to the Immortal Dao Heaven Immortal realm).] [However, you have not yet reached the center of the Divine Martial Continent.] [The Divine Martial Continent is too vast.] [In the eleventh year, you slew an evil cultivator at the Heaven Immortal realm.] [Your Invincible Will triggered, granting you a sliver of insight into thew of chaos.] [This made your eyes light up.] [Indeed, the Orange Talent Invincible Will only truly exerts its power after your cultivation is restored.] [You must know that gaining insight into thews is very difficult.] [For an average Chosen, it might take years to gain a sliver of insight without an epiphany.] [But now, as long as you defeat opponents of the same realm or higher, you can directly gain a sliver ofw insight.] [This cheat is simply too satisfying.] [In the twelfth year, you slew a Heaven Immortal realm Phantom Moon Demon Fox.] [Your Invincible Will triggered, granting you a sliver of insight into thew of illusion.] [You devoured the Phantom Moon Demon Fox''s corpse with your Taotie Divine Body, slightly enhancing your Divine Dao cultivation.] [In the fifteenth year, you challenged the Heaven Immortal realm patriarch of the second-rate Xingyue Sect and emerged victorious.] [Your Invincible Will triggered, granting you a sliver of insight into thew of wood.] [In the eighteenth year, you slew a True Immortal realm Golden-scaled Demonic Python.] [Your Invincible Will triggered, granting you a sliver of insight into thew of gold.] [You devoured the Golden-scaled Demonic Python''s body with your Taotie Divine Body, slightly enhancing your Divine Dao cultivation.] ... [Over these years, you constantly challenged powerful beings and slew demonic beasts.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [Thews youprehended grew more numerous.] [However, you also discovered a problem.] [That is, thew insights gained from your Invincible Will are not random.] [They are determined by the opponent you defeat.] [If the opponent is proficient in thew of wood, then the insight you gain is basically thew of wood.] [ording to this understanding, if the opponent is proficient in multiplews, there seems to be a certain randomness.] [But you think it''s not like that.] [Everyone can be proficient in manyws, but it''s impossible to bnce thempletely.] [You believe it should be thew the opponent is most proficient in that you gain.] [With this discovery, your goals became clearer.] [You decided to challenge those who haveprehended strongerws.] [In the blink of an eye, another thirty years passed.] [In the forty-eighth year, you finally arrived at the center of the Divine Martial Continent: the Central Region!] [Here, there are several first-rate sects and three major Holy Lands!] [This is the gathering ce of the Chosen.] [As soon as you arrived in the Central Region, many sects became vignt.] [Especially those second and third-rate sects, almost all knew your name.] [They all knew that you, Jiang Feng, who imed to be the sect master of the Ancient God Sect, continuously challenged the patriarchs of these second and third-rate sects under the guise of sparring.] [And this situation has persisted for decades.] [It''s said that you''ve never been defeated!] [In fact, if it were just that, it would be fine, but the key is that they heard you are not very old.] [This is the main reason why the patriarchs of those second and third-rate sects are uneasy.] [After all, being defeated by you would be too embarrassing.] [At this time, the patriarchs of those second and third-rate sects are secretly cursing you in their hearts!] [You''re a young man, a Chosen, why not challenge those Chosen of Heaven, why focus on them, these old fellows?] [It can be said that you have already made a name for yourself on the Divine Martial Continent.] [You are currently unaware of the thoughts of these patriarchs.] [If you knew, you might also be speechless.] [You would definitely say, "Who''s focusing on you old fellows, I just haven''t found the Chosen yet?"] [In fact, that''s exactly the case.] [Beforeing to the Central Region, the strongest Chosen you encountered were only at the Earth Immortal realm.] [Thispletely did not satisfy your conditions for triggering Invincible Will!] [There was no choice but to focus on challenging those patriarchs of the second and third-rate sects.] [As for why you im to be the sect master of the Ancient God Sect?] [The reason is simple, you need a reason to challenge them!] [Otherwise, if you''re seen as a demonic path, wouldn''t it be easy for you to be hunted down in the future?] [You are not arrogant enough to be able to stand against the world.] [Therefore, using the title of sect master of the Ancient God Sect to spar with the patriarchs of those sects is very appropriate.] [By then, even if someone investigates, they can only find that this is a declining Divine Dao sect.] [A declining Divine Dao sect wanting to make a name for itself, wanting to rise, challenging various sects, is very reasonable!] [While the patriarchs of those second and third-rate sects were wary of you.] [You had already quietly settled in the Central Region.] [You did not challenge those patriarchs.] [After all, you had already found out that there are many Chosen in the Central Region.] [Each one is above the Immortal realm, with Heaven Immortal realm ones in abundance.] [And thewsprehended by the Chosen are generally stronger.] [This is very suitable for you to trigger your Invincible Will talent.] [With so many Chosen around, who would care about those old fellows?] Chapter 202: How arrogant! In the blink of an eye, you''ve been in the Central Region for more than half a month! During this time, you''ve encountered a problem. That is, you can''t find those Chosen ones! However, you know that most of these Chosen are disciples of first-rate sects or even Holy Lands. You''ve tried visiting those first-rate sects and even Holy Lands. Hoping to enter their sects and propose a duel with their Chosen. Unfortunately, it all ended in vain! You couldn''t even get past the gates of the first-rate sects. Your strength is decent for some second or third-rate sects.They give you face, allowing you the chance to visit, to see some of their elders, and then challenge them. But for those first-rate sects, clearly, your strength is not enough. After all, in the first-rate sects of the Central Region, there are at least Golden Immortal level experts guarding them. Not to mention the Holy Lands, which have Great Principal Golden Immortal level experts. And that''s just on the surface. As a Two-Star Ancient God realm cultivator, they don''t even need to pay attention to you. Let alone give you any face. In fact, you don''t know that even second-rate sects have many elders who can surpass you. But those are their true foundations. They won''t appear unless the sect faces life and death. So you don''t know of their existence and have no chance to challenge them. Now, your situation is quite awkward. You don''t even have the qualification to visit! You can''t even see anyone, let alone challenge them. This has brought great trouble to your n of using challenges to cultivate your "Invincible Will" talent. In a certain inn, you ponder deeply. Suddenly, you have a sh of inspiration. Then, you rush out. Not long after, you arrive at the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce in the Central Region. This Wansheng Chamber of Commerce is thergest in the Central Region, with great influence, and all major Holy Lands give it face. As long as it''s not tantly evil, it takes on almost any business. You came here because of this. After half a day, you leave the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce with a smile on your face. But your wallet has also deted. Shortly after you leave, teams from the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce start making arrangements in full swing. In the blink of an eye, another half month passes. By now, it''s spread throughout the Central Region that a young man has set up a challenge arena at the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce, inviting all Heaven Immortal and even True Immortal level experts to fight. ? He even left bold words: "I am invincible at the same level, Central Region''s Chosen? Just trash!" Yes, this is all your doing. You spent a lot of money to have the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce make this announcement. The purpose is to provoke all the Chosen. You think, since you can''t see them, why not let those Chosene to you. After all, Chosen are all proud. You''ve mocked them like this, you don''t believe those Chosen can hold back. Actually, your idea is not wrong at all. After your announcement through the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce, those Chosen are already getting restless. The Tai Xuan Sect, a top-tier sect among the first-rate ones, is not much different from the three major Holy Lands! At this moment, within the Tai Xuan Sect, a group of Chosen disciples from first-rate sects are gathering. They are discussing the bold words you left. One Chosen disciple snorts coldly. "Heh, after challenging a few elders from second-rate sects, does this person not know his own weight?" Many around him nod in agreement: "Exactly, those second-rate sects aren''t strong, their elders even less so; who among us can''t defeat them?" "Right, truly a clown who hasn''t seen the world." ... In fact, most of these Chosen know about your previous challenges to the elders of second and third-rate sects. Many even know you wanted to challenge them. But they look down on someone from a ninth-rate sect like you and don''t want to bother with you. However, your current actions havepletely angered them. That''s why they are so displeased. But, although displeased, those who can be Chosen aren''t fools. Since you dare to make such a move, it proves you must have some skills. So, they have this gathering. The so-called purpose is just to egg on someone foolish enough to test your strength first! After all, everyone in their circle knows each other''s strength. If the person testing you wins, it represents a victory for their circle. And if the person testing you loses, they can roughly gauge yourbat strength. Each of them is calcting well. It''s just unknown who will be the first fool to step up. However, you are unaware of all this. At this moment, you return to the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce. You look at the battle secret realm suspended in mid-air by the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce and give a thumbs up to the manager who received you. This secret realm not only hangs in the air, visible to everyone in the Central Region. The key is that the secret realm has a banner hanging: "Same realm people stay away, invincible across a realm;e fight if you disagree!" Damn, this is really high-profile! But you like it! This is exactly the effect you wanted. Without saying much, you rise into the air and enter the secret realm, sitting cross-legged! This is simr to the battle secret realm of the Extreme Heaven Sect before, as long as there are two people in the secret realm, no one else can enter. The only difference is that in this secret realm, both Heaven Immortal and True Immortal cultivators can enter. Yes, although the banner says "same realm people stay away," Earth Immortal realm people can still enter. The banner is just to provoke hatred. Your goal is still to trigger the "Invincible Will" talent! You only need opponents of the same realm. As for challenging one level higher, it''s also to provoke, plus you want more battles. After all, with your current strength, challenging one level higher is not difficult. As for fighting two levels higher? Actually, with your currentbat strength, you can try it; the chances of winning are quite high. But to be safe, you haven''t chosen to do so. After all, you may seem arrogant now.N?v(el)B\\jnn But in reality, you are still someone who walks the cautious path. Chapter 203: Hide your strength and fish! [Just as you entered the secret realm, the people from the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce began to publicize your name extensively.] [Now, you''ve be a celebrity in the Central Region.] [There''s no way you can avoid fame.] [After all, it''s like setting up a challenge right at someone else''s doorstep.] [It''s practically like stepping on the faces of those Chosen in the Central Region!] [Many people think your actions are too arrogant.] [You''re well aware of this.] [Indeed, your actions have embarrassed various sects.] [If any sect gets enraged, they might kill you on the spot.][But that''s precisely why you coborated with the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce.] [When the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce takes on a job, the major powers won''t ignore it.] [This ensures that you won''t face much danger during the challenge.] [Even if there is danger, it will be after the challenge.] [However, by the end of the challenge, you will have already faced the Chosen of the major powers.] [As long as you defeat all the Chosen with an invincible stance.] [You believe that by then, there will be first-rate sects, or even Holy Lands, willing to befriend and recruit you.] [As long as a sect is willing to befriend and protect you.] [The danger will naturally diminish.] [You could say that you''ve racked your brains to cultivate the "Invincible Will" talent.] [You''re quite satisfied with your n, now just waiting for those Chosen toe to you.] [It didn''t take long.] [After waiting in the secret realm for just half a day, a Chosen at the Heaven Immortal realm stormed in angrily.] [As soon as that Heaven Immortal Chosen entered, many people in the Central Region instinctively looked up to the sky.] [Everyone wanted to see if you truly had strength or were just overconfident!] [You used the Eye of Insight to examine the information of the Chosen who rushed into the secret realm.] [Chen Kang: Newly entered the Heaven Immortal realm, two thousand years old!] [That''s right, a two-thousand-year-old Earth Immortal realm is already considered a Chosen.] [After all, not everyone has a simtor like you.] [And not everyone has mysterious origins like your father or Little Peach!] [Of course, this Chen Kang is merely a Chosen with a decent cultivation speed.] [Not particrly outstanding!] [After all, the Eye of Insight didn''t give Chen Kang any special annotations.] [After seeing his information, you decisively chose to hide your strength.] [How much should you hide?] [After thinking it over, you decided that using ten percent of your strength should be enough.] [After one move, Chen Kang was severely injured.] [This startled you into quickly adjusting your strategy, further reducing your attack power.] [In the end, after a fierce battle, you defeated Chen Kang in ten moves, and he was teleported out of the secret realm.] [As for why you did this?] [The purpose is simple: to bait others.] [You want the real Chosen of the Central Region to think you''re strong, but not overwhelmingly so.] [This way, more people wille to challenge you.] [After all, Chen Kang''s strength really wasn''t impressive!] [If the battle dragged on too long, the real Chosen might find it boring.] [But if you defeated him in just one move.] [That would deter many from challenging you.] [You''d miss many opportunities to trigger the "Invincible Will"!] [Thus, there was this "exhrating" ten-move bloody battle.] [After defeating Chen Kang.] [Your "Invincible Will" was triggered, and you gained a trace of thew of gold.] [Feeling that trace ofw, you thought it was decent, better than challenging those old fellows from second or third-rate sects.] [But that''s about it.] [You actually want to gain some specialws.] [Like time, space, chaos, and other supremews.] [As long as you gain a trace of these supremews, it will greatly aid your futureprehension of them.] [After all, going from 0 to 1 is the hardest part.] [This is also why you want to challenge the Chosen.] [Because these supremews are generally exclusive to the Chosen.] [Meanwhile, the news of you defeating Chen Kang in ten moves has spread.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [The Chosen of the Central Region are holding small meetings again.] [A day passed.] [You finally weed the second challenger.] [The opponent was slightly stronger than Chen Kang.] [You still only used ten percent of your strength and defeated the opponent in thirteen moves.] [Days passed by.] [In the blink of an eye, half a year had gone by.] [During this time, every one or two days, a Chosen woulde to challenge you.] [But you always only used ten percent of your strength.] [Because you found that these Chosen didn''t seem very strong.] [In fact, many seemed only slightly stronger than Chen Kang.] [This made you wonder if the Chosen of the Central Region were all at this level.] [Did you overestimate them?] [During this time, the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce became increasingly enthusiastic towards you!] [They even refunded the fee you paid to hire them to set up the challenge.] [As for why the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce did this?] [It''s certainly not because you''re strong.] [Nor because they think you''re a genius and want to befriend you.] [It''s because your challenge has be popr.] [The Wansheng Chamber of Commerce has even started charging for spectator seats.] [But even with the fees, tickets are hard toe by.] [Just from selling tickets, the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce has made a huge profit.] [Now, the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce just wants your challenge to continue indefinitely.] [That''s why they refunded your previous hiring fee.] [One day, the manager who previously received you from the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce came to find you.] [He handed you a pile of treasures and urged you to quickly improve your strength.] [You looked at him with some confusion.] [He smiled and said, "You''re really famous now. The real Chosen of the Central Region have heard of you and are preparing toe out of seclusion."] ["It won''t be long before your challenge bes a real battle of dragons and tigers."] [Upon hearing this, you instantly understood.] [No wonder you felt something was off before.] [Although you know your cultivation in the Divine Dao is much stronger than ordinary Chosen.] [But to crush all Chosen of the same realm with just ten percent of your strength felt too surreal.] [It turns out the real Chosen were in seclusion before.] [As for the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce''s intentions.] [Why give you treasures?] [You nced at the spectator seats outside the secret realm and understood.] [The Wansheng Chamber of Commerce is worried about you losing!] [They hope you can defeat more Chosen and keep the challenge going longer, so they can sell tickets for a longer period.] [Thinking of this, you smiled slightly and graciously epted the resources they offered.] [Although you''re sure you won''t lose, there''s no reason to refuse free resources!] [Seeing you ept the resources, the manager from the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce reminded you again to work hard on improving your strength, then left on his own.] [And you, you''re still wondering how strong the real Chosen of the Central Region will be?] [Is there anyone who hasprehended the supremews?] [You''re really looking forward to it!] Chapter 204: Chosen of the Extinguish Law Chapter 204: Chosen of the ''Extinguish Law'' In the following days, no new challengers appeared, so you continued to cultivate in the secret realm. After all, sharpening the axe won''t dy the work of chopping firewood. You didn''t forget to actively cultivate just because you wanted to trigger the "Invincible Will" talent. One day, you discovered that the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce began to sell tickets for the spectator seats on arge scale. Seeing this situation, you knew that the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce must have received some advance information. The same scenario had happened many times before. Whenever the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce started selling spectator tickets on arge scale, it meant a challenger wasing. You just didn''t know the level of this challenger. You didn''t inquire about the opponent from the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce. No matter who it was, you had the confidence and belief to win.This mindset was something you didn''t have before. Perhaps this is the result of your long-term battles! Yet, you seemed unaware of it yourself. In the blink of an eye, three days passed. A man in a purple robe entered your secret realm. In an instant, the secret realm closed. The challenger had arrived. You immediately used the Eye of Insight to check the opponent''s information. Ji Chen, Heaven Immortal Realm perfection; a true Chosen of the Immortal Dao, with a record of defeating True Immortal Realm opponents. "Hmm?" Seeing the evaluation from the Eye of Insight, you became interested! He actually had a record of fighting across realms. It seemed he was indeed a true Chosen from the Central Region. While you were observing Ji Chen, he was also observing you. He was quite curious about how much true skill you, this suddenly emerging figure, possessed. Although he didn''t have the Eye of Insight, he indeed sensed a feeling of crisis from you. He felt you wouldn''t be easy to deal with. Thus, without hesitation, he chose to strike first. He manipted the surging power ofws, apanied by spells, to attack you. You sensed the explosive, frenzied, and destructive power ofws in his spells and felt a thrill in your heart. Thisw seemed to be one you hadn''t seen before. Moreover, you could feel that this power ofws was very strong, likely a supremew. Indeed, a true Chosen was different. Since that was the case, you were determined to im thisw. With this thought, you directly used eighty percent of your strength, beginning to apply variousws to the Silent Destruction Fist. "Boom!" Your attacks collided with each other. In an instant, your Silent Destruction Fist obliterated the opponent''s attack. Seeing this, Ji Chen was momentarily flustered. He had expected you to be strong, but not this strong. In the past, he had always easily destroyed others'' attacks. Unexpectedly, this time, his full-force strike was shattered by you in an instant. No, it wasn''t just shattered. He noticed that although your Silent Destruction Fist weakened slightly, it didn''t dissipate. After shattering his attack, it continued to strike toward him. He had no choice but to hurriedly unleash several attacks to intercept it. Unfortunately, the hastily executed interception spells failed to shatter your fist intent. "Bang!" Ultimately, your Silent Destruction Fist still hit Ji Chen. Ji Chen spat out a mouthful of blood and was instantly teleported out of the secret realm. "What, this?" The spectators outside the secret realm were all dumbfounded.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om They had originally thought you and Ji Chen would engage in a battle of dragons and tigers, an epic back-and-forth fight. But who could have imagined it would end so quickly? That was Ji Chen! The Holy Son of the Tai Xuan Sect, a first-rate sect in the Central Region, whose strength surpassed even the personal disciples of the Holy Land. Previously, only a few Holy Sons and Holy Daughters from the Holy Land dared to im they could surpass him among the same generation. "Rigged, rigged!" Many people even shouted that it was rigged. At this moment, seeing this, you also felt a bit regretful! You sighed inwardly, "I was careless!" You had gone a bit overboard. Actually, this was also because you saw that Ji Chen had the strength to defeat True Immortal Realm opponents. It was precisely upon seeing this information that you chose to use eighty percent of your strength. You were worried that if you didn''t use enough strength, you might suffer an unexpected defeat. However, it seemed you miscalcted your strength. Ji Chen had a record of defeating True Immortal Realm opponents, but that didn''t mean he could defeat all True Immortal Realm opponents. And with your strength, you could basically win against any True Immortal Realm opponent. You even had a chance to win against Mystic Immortal Realm opponents. It could only be said that your understanding of your own strength was not urate enough. What should you do now? If you reveal too much strength and no onees to challenge you, wouldn''t it be difficult to trigger the "Invincible Will" talent? No, you had to find a way to remedy this. "Poof!" You quickly shook your blood and managed to cough out a mouthful of blood. Instantly, a trace of paleness appeared on your face! And this situation was seen by all the spectators outside the secret realm. For a moment, there were various opinions. "This Jiang Feng spat blood, he must have used some forbidden technique!" "That''s right, it seems his strength should be about the same as Ji Chen''s, otherwise he wouldn''t have used a forbidden technique right at the start." "Ah, yes, yes! He must have been worried about losing to Ji Chen, so he used a forbidden technique at the start to catch Ji Chen off guard!" Your acting deceived the spectators. But Ji Chen, who had fought with you, was thoughtful! Did you really use a forbidden technique? Having fought with you, he naturally knew you didn''t use a forbidden technique. He wasn''t some rogue cultivator; if a forbidden technique was used, he wouldn''t be unaware. Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Ji Chen looked at you in the secret realm and sighed, "Let''s just say so!" He didn''t know what you meant by doing this, but it was no longer his concern. Shaking his head, Ji Chen headed back to the sect dejectedly. And this overwhelming battle would also change the life of this Chosen. Whether he would sink into oblivion or be reborn in Nirvana andplete his transformation was unknown. Meanwhile, after orchestrating the blood-spitting act yourself, you began toprehend thew you just acquired. After defeating Ji Chen, the "Invincible Will" talent allowed you to gain a trace of thew from him. After a briefprehension, you instantly understood that this was indeed a supremew. It was thew of destruction, filled with violence, chaos, explosiveness, and scorching heat, with overwhelming destructive power. Suddenly, you felt fortunate that you had used eighty percent of your strength earlier. Chapter 205: Big Tiger, long time no see! Chapter 205: Big Tiger, long time no see! "If you hold back a bit, relying solely on Ji Chen''sprehension of the Law of Destruction..." "If you fail to shatter the opponent''s attack and get hit by their Law of Destruction, you might really end up in trouble." "Of course, that''s only a possibility!" "After all, you''re not sure how deeply Ji Chen hasprehended the Law of Destruction." "You possess a Divine Dao physical body, so you might withstand it." "However, even if you can withstand it, you''ll definitely suffer some pain." "This is the Law of Destruction, one of the most destructivews." "Not only that, but your feat of defeating Ji Chen with a single move has spread throughout the Central Region." "This has made the secret realm arena you''ve set up temporarily quiet again.""Many Chosen, although they have already emerged from seclusion, silently returned to their retreats afterparing their strength to Ji Chen''s." "After all, whether or not you used forbidden techniques, the fact that you defeated Ji Chen is indisputable." "These Chosen, who were originally weaker than Ji Chen, would only be humiliating themselves if they challenged you." "As for any aftereffects of using forbidden techniques?" "Do they think they can take advantage of it?" "The Chosen of the Central Region aren''t fools." "Since you''re still holding the arena, it proves that the aftereffects aren''t severe, or they''ve already been treated with precious medicine by the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce."N?v(el)B\\jnn "Time passes, and in the blink of an eye, a month has gone by!" "Outside the secret realm arena you''ve set up, crowds have gathered once again." "And within the secret realm, you''ve received news from the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce." "This time, the personing to challenge you is the number one in the Mortal Immortal realm in the ''Central Region'' and even the entire Divine Martial Continent." "The opponent is the Holy Son of the Cangyun Holy Land, one of the three major Holy Lands." "Hearing that the opponent is in the Mortal Immortal realm, your first reaction is disbelief." "What¡¯s going on? A Mortal Immortal realm challenger?" "And judging by the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce''s actions, they seem to take it very seriously." "Even more seriously than when Ji Chen came to challenge you." "Finally, after some inquiry, you learn that the opponent is a martial cultivator!" "Indeed, their Immortal Dao cultivation is only at the Mortal Immortal realm!" "But their true strength is far beyond that." "Rumor has it that they have already devoured and refined several profound powers ofws." "You must understand, the Martial Dao''s realm differs from the Immortal Dao." "In the Immortal Dao, after reaching the Mortal Immortal realm, there are dozens of realms before oneprehends the Great Dao and achieves the Saint realm." "But the Martial Dao is different; before devouring andprehending the power of the Great Dao, there is only one realm, which is the War Saint!" "So the strength of a War Saint is hard to estimate!" "The strong might rival the Great Principal Golden Immortal level, while the weak might just be on par with the Mortal Immortal realm." "This Cangyun Holy Son''s Martial Dao strengthpared to the Immortal Dao is unknown." "You can''t help but feel a bit nervous." "You realize this is indeed an oversight on your part." "You never considered the conditions to limit the Martial Dao." "Just hope that the Cangyun Holy Land has some decency and doesn''t send a martial cultivator on par with a Great Principal Golden Immortal to make trouble!" "However, you can''t entirely me yourself for this." "Whether in reality or simtion, you''ve encountered very few martial cultivators." "You wait somewhat anxiously in the secret realm." "Meanwhile, outside the secret realm, a young man and woman in the Tribtion Crossing stage are watching you with wide eyes." "If you were outside the secret realm, you would know they are Su Mushuang and her senior brother from the Extreme Heaven Sect." "Over the decades, they have sessfully broken through from the Divine Transformation Realm to the Tribtion Crossing stage, not far from crossing the tribtion to be immortals." "They originally believed that, in terms of both realm andbat power, they should have surpassed you." "But what do they see now?" "You, someone they once fought against, have already set up an arena in the Central Region, challenging top Chosen of the Heaven Immortal realm, even the True Immortal realm!" "Su Mushuang keeps rubbing her eyes, thinking she must be seeing things." "Beside her, her senior brother clenches his fists tightly!" "Unbeknownst to you, because of you, these two have secretly vowed to work even harder." "They don''t hold a grudge against you; it''s the unwillingness of fellow Chosen." "Of course, you are unaware of all this." "Time ticks by." "Soon, a man dressed in beast clothing appears in the secret realm." "His appearance causes everyone to erupt in excitement." "Because he is the Holy Son of the Cangyun Holy Land, here to challenge you." "At this moment, traces of blood still linger on the beast-clothed man''s body." "It seems he recently experienced a bloody battle." "However, no one is surprised by this." "Those who have been in the ''Central Region'' long enough know that this Cangyun Holy Son is a cultivation maniac." "All his Martial Dao cultivation was forged through countless bloody battles." "You look at the beast-clothed man before you, a hint of confusion in your expression!" "Is it him?" "You quickly use the Eye of Insight to examine his information!" "Liang Dahu, Holy Son of the Cangyun Holy Land, apprenticed to a mysterious deceased expert, proficient in Martial Dao, possesses Martial Dao cultivation rivaling the Mystic Immortal Realm, with a record of ying Mystic Immortal Realm experts." "WTF! It really is him!" "You can hardly believe it." "You murmur in your heart, ''Cangyun Sect, Cangyun Holy Land!''" "Previously, when you were transported to the Divine Martial Continent by the Death Substitute Doll in that simtion, Liang Dahu was a direct disciple of the Cangyun Sect, so this Cangyun Holy Land should be the Cangyun Sect!" "But wasn''t the Divine Martial Continent invaded back then?" "How has it recovered now?" "And how did the Cangyun Sect be the Cangyun Holy Land?" "What happened in between?" "You can''t figure it out, so you stop thinking about it." "Just seeing Liang Dahu again, you never expected it would be under such circumstances." "And not far from you, Liang Dahu is also a bit dazed." "He feels like he''s seen you somewhere before, even feels a sense of familiarity." "This is also why he didn''t attack you immediately upon entering the secret realm." "Otherwise, he would have acted already." "To him, this kind of duel is meaningless." "If the Holy Land hadn''t insisted hee, he wouldn''t have bothered." "His original n was to enter the secret realm, quickly finish the fight, and then continue his training and improvement!" "However, the aura and feeling emanating from you made him hesitate." "Finally, Liang Dahu looks at you and uncertainly asks, ''Do you have a brother named Jiang Yifeng?''" "Hearing this, you look at Liang Dahu and can''t help but smile." "It really is him, no doubt about it!" "However, you don''t immediately acknowledge him." "Instead, you say in a low voice, ''Come, let''s fight!''" "But in your heart, you think, ''Dahu, long time no see. Let me see how strong you''ve be now!''" Chapter 206: The same battle techniques! Chapter 206: The same battle techniques! Upon seeing your aura burst forth, Liang Dahu frowned slightly, wondering to himself: Did he mistake you for someone else? However, he was not one to be indecisive. Since you want to fight, then fight we shall! Liang Dahu''s body trembled, and a chilling intent spread from him. As the aura between the two of you unfolded, the spectators outside the secret realm focused their attention. Among these onlookers, many were contemporary Chosen under three thousand years old. On the Divine Martial Continent, Chosen are generally divided into those below the Immortal Realm and those above it. Below the Immortal Realm, breaking through to the Core Formation stage with a high-grade Golden Core before the age of 30 makes one a prodigy. Above the Immortal Realm, anyone who breaks through to the Earth Immortal realm before the age of three thousand is considered a Chosen.This is the consensus on the Divine Martial Continent! Before you appeared, Liang Dahu was undoubtedly the number one Chosen above the Immortal Realm in the Central Region, and even on the Divine Martial Continent. Now you are about to battle Liang Dahu. Naturally, the other Chosen want to see the oue. Everyone wants to know whether the original number one Chosen above the Immortal Realm, Liang Dahu, is stronger, or if you, the dark horse, can rise to the top! Neither you nor Liang Dahu are aware of the thoughts of those watching outside the secret realm. At this moment, the two of you stand facing each other. Almost simultaneously, you begin to execute your offensive techniques. "Silent Destruction Fist." "Silent Destruction Fist." The same technique is unleashed from both of you, attacking the other! Seeing this, you smile slightly, not surprised at all! After all, since it¡¯s confirmed that the other is an old acquaintance, it¡¯s not strange that Liang Dahu knows the Silent Destruction Fist. But Liang Dahu, at this moment, widened his eyes in disbelief as he looked at you. This "Silent Destruction Fist," he had never taught it to anyone. He rarely even used it himself. If he hadn''t sensed a crisis from you, he wouldn''t have nned to use it at all. Moreover, he hadn''t heard of anyone else knowing this fist technique all these years. In truth, Liang Dahu''s level was not high enough. He had never left the Divine Martial Continent. Otherwise, he would know that outside the Divine Martial Continent, there are beings who know the War God Art and the Silent Destruction Fist. No, that''s not right; it seems it wasn''t a person, but a White Tiger! In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this and pondered. It seems that in previous simtions, whether it was the time with the Death Substitute Doll or the possession, he indeed came to this world. And from this simtion, it seems Liang Dahu indeed knows the War God Art and even remembers his name. The simtor also mentioned that outside the Divine Martial Continent, there is a White Tiger that knows the War God Art. It should be Little White! At this moment, Jiang Yifeng recalled that in the simtion where he used the Death Substitute Doll to teleport, the Divine Martial Continent was invaded in the end. And during the possession, the True Spirit Continent and the Demonic God Continent also connected with the Divine Martial Continent. Could there be a connection? If there is a connection, doesn''t that mean the invasion of the Divine Martial Continent was all because of him? He remembered that during the possession, he had the Cmity Tribtion Body talent. It made people from the True Spirit Continent and the Demonic God Continent extremely aggressive. That''s why the three continents connected. The more he thought about it, the more Jiang Yifeng felt this possibility was great. However, judging from this simtion, the Divine Martial Continent managed to withstand it. As for how they managed to withstand it, he had no idea. He hoped that in this simtion, he could find Liang Dahu and ask him. Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng realized. In the simtion, he directly influenced the world''s current state. And this influence wouldn''t be reset after his previous simtion ended.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om Damn it, how is this still a simtion? Isn''t it more like a transmigration? This must be the power of the simtor! But after deducing this issue, Jiang Yifeng became somewhat worried about the cross-time simtion. Since actions in the simtion can affect the future, his every move could cause a butterfly effect, leading to changes in reality, right? However, after the previous two simtions, reality seemed unchanged. This puzzled him. Could it be that the Divine Martial Continent, True Spirit Continent, and Demonic God Continent, these continents and the Nine Mystic Realm, Immortal Realm are not in the same world? So it didn''t cause an impact? Or has the impact already urred, but he hasn''t noticed it? Or perhaps it was precisely because of his simtion that the Nine Mystic Realm and Immortal Realm became what they are now? For a moment, Jiang Yifeng felt a headache. These issues, he knew, couldn''t be urately answered through mere spection. He could only keep them in mind. In the future, if there''s an opportunity, he could try to leave some clues in the simtion to see if he can find them in reality. After a long time, he took a deep breath and stopped thinking about it. Instead, he continued to look at the simtion panel. You see the distracted Liang Dahu and call out, "Hey, don''t get distracted!" If it were someone else, you would certainly take advantage of their distraction to defeat them. But this person was once your disciple in a simtion. (Although you didn''t acknowledge it at the time) Even after leaving the simtion, you still have some images of him. You have a natural fondness for him. In this battle, you are prepared to go all out to see his strength. As for winning or losing? You don''t care as much anymore. If you lose, it''s no big deal. Just missing one trigger of the "Invincible Will" talent! Hearing your reminder, Liang Dahu snapped back to reality. He cursed himself in his heart: "Liang Dahu, how can you get distracted in a fight?" Then, he stopped thinking and focused entirely on the battle with you. In truth, with Dahu''sbat experience, he wouldn''t normally get distracted in a fight. But the person in his heart was too important to him. It was that person who gave him the opportunity to embark on the Martial Dao. It was because of that person that he could be with Xiao Qing. One could say, without that person, Liang Dahu wouldn''t be who he is today. And it was precisely because of this that when you used the War God Art and even the Silent Destruction Fist, Liang Dahu was momentarily stunned. And this, you actually knew. This is also why you didn''t acknowledge him. You knew that once you acknowledged Dahu, this fool wouldn''t dare to fight you. You genuinely wanted to have an all-out battle with Liang Dahu. You wanted to see how strong this disciple you identally taught had be. But is that really all you want in your heart? Chapter 207: The Law of Power, Completes the Divine Dao! Chapter 207: The Law of ''Power'', Completes the Divine Dao! "No, that''s not it!" "Perhaps you haven''t even realized it yourself, but aside from that reason, you also want to defeat Liang Dahu fair and square." "Because he is the number one Chosen on the Divine Martial Continent."n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om "Unconsciously, you''ve developed the pride unique to a Chosen." "You have the thought of not being weaker than others." "Once Liang Dahu gets serious, hisbat power is indeed extraordinary, worthy of being a Chosen who has defeated a Mystic Immortal Realm expert." "Even now, despite giving it your all, you can''t gain any advantage for the moment." "However, this is also because your realm is lower." "You''re currently at the three-star Ancient God realm, which is equivalent to the Heaven Immortal realm in the Immortal Dao.""Liang Dahu, on the other hand, practices the Martial Dao, and although there''s no detailed division in cultivation levels, his Martial Dao cultivation is equivalent to the True Immortal realm in the Immortal Dao." "To be precise, you''re fighting beyond your level." "And you''re up against someone who, like you, has cultivated the War God Art." "In your battle with Dahu, you no longer have an advantage in battle techniques." "Both of you use the same techniques, but Dahu''s cultivation is slightly higher; however, your foundation in the Divine Dao is stronger!" "That''s why your battle has reached a stalemate." "Bang! Yound a hit, and Dahu spits out a mouthful of blood. The War God Body activates, and his strength increases, bing more and more courageous in battle." "Soon, you find yourself at a disadvantage." "Poof! You take a punch from Dahu, spit out blood, and are sent flying; the War God Body activates." ... "Outside the secret realm, everyone watching is filled with excitement." "Everyone marvels, ''This is what a battle between Chosen should be!''" "Fists meeting flesh, back and forth!" "It''s no longer like before, where you could defeat your opponent with one punch or toy with them for a few moves!" "Three days pass in the blink of an eye." "Your battle with Dahu continues." "The more you fight, the more courageous you be, seemingly unaware of fatigue." "However, the initial excitement of those watching outside the secret realm gradually subsides." "Some who were just there for the spectacle find it a bit dull and start to leave." "Five more days pass." "You''re still fighting with Dahu." "Only the Chosen from the Central Region remain among the spectators." "Only they are most eager to witness who is the strongest Chosen of the current era." "Half a month passes." "Those Chosen from the Central Region feel that determining who the strongest Chosen is doesn''t seem that important anymore!" "Some have already started to leave, preparing to return to their sects to continue their closed-door cultivation." "A month passes." "Only a few dozen people remain watching outside the secret realm." "Three months pass." "Only two people remain watching." "They are merely in the Tribtion Crossing Realm!" "These two are Su Mushuang and her senior brother." "They watch you and Liang Dahu still battling in the secret realm, clenching their fists, determined to catch up with you!" "They don''t know when your battle will end and decide to leave!" "After that, your battle with Liang Dahu basically has no audience." "Actually, there still is." "After all, your secret realm arena is set in the sky above the ''Central Region.''" "As long as people in the ''Central Region'' look up, they can still see some of it." "But those premium viewing seats sold by the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce are empty!" "Six monthster, both you and Liang Dahu are covered in blood." "However, because your physical bodies are strong, these injuries are not fatal." "So you haven''t been transported out of the secret realm." "A yearter, due to excessive consumption, Liang Dahu is identally hit in a vital spot by you and is transported out of the secret realm!" "You win the final victory." "However, there are no cheers to be heard." "After all, you and Liang Dahu fought for a whole year, and the people of the Central Region have gotten used to it." "Your sudden end to the battle catches them off guard." "Of course, even if they did react, they wouldn''t have the same enthusiasm as at the beginning." "Having defeated Dahu, you sessfully trigger the talent of ''Invincible Will!''" "You gain a trace of the Law of Strength." "Thisw is not rare." "However, although thisw is not rare in the world, it is extremely difficult toprehend." "Generally, those who cultivate the Immortal Dao can hardlyprehend the Law of Strength." "Thisw seems to be unique to the Martial Dao and is very powerful!" "The reason the Martial Dao is stronger inbat than the Immortal Dao is precisely because of this Law of Strength." "Because of this, some even rank the Law of ''Strength'' as the foremost among the three thousandws, above thews of time and space!" "But the specific effects are subjective." "You feel the trace of the ''Strength''w you''ve gained!" "Your cultivation instantly breaks through to the four-star Ancient God realm!" "Suddenly, you have a moment of enlightenment." "The Divine Dao is the perfectbination of the Martial Dao and the Immortal Dao!" "Previously, you hadn''tprehended the ''Strength''w." "The Divine Dao was always imperfect." "In a short moment, not only has your cultivation broken through." "But thepletion of the ''Strength''w has greatly enhanced yourbat power." "Now you feel that fighting someone from the Immortal Dao, surpassing two realms shouldn''t be too difficult." "If you were to fight Dahu again, you are confident you could defeat him within a few moves." "Of course, that''s speaking of you after your cultivation has improved." "If you were still at the original three-star Ancient God realm, with only one more ''Strength''w." "You think it might still take a few days of fighting." "Yes, just a few days." "That''s the perfectbat power of the Divine Dao with the ''Strength''wpleted." "After the enhancement, you don''t stay in the arena secret realm any longer." "After this battle, no Chosen will challenge you again." "Those Chosen aren''t foolish enough to seek abuse." "Of course, even if they were foolish, you wouldn''t y with them." "Now, as a four-star Ancient God realm cultivator, you should challenge True Immortal realm experts." "And as far as you know, there are no True Immortal realm individuals under three thousand years old in the Central Region." "So they wouldn''t im to be Chosen!" "And those over three thousand years old, would theye to challenge you?" "You think it''s even less likely!" "If they win, it''s expected, given their age!" "If they lose, it''s embarrassing." "Not worth the risk!" "As you walk out of the secret realm, Liang Dahues to meet you." "Although he has injuries, they are not severe." "After all, the battle secret realm transported him out at a critical moment, and the most lethal damage didn''t hit him." "Liang Dahu looks at you, full of questions, but doesn''t know where to start." "Seeing his troubled expression, you find it amusing." "You pat his shoulder and say, ''How''s Xiao Qing?''" Chapter 208: Recognize each other! [Liang Dahu was incredulous as he looked at you upon hearing your words.] [His expression was filled with shock, confusion, and disbelief!] [How do you know about Xiaoqing?] [You must understand, ever since arriving at the Cangyun Holy Land from the Cangyun Sect, Xiaoqing has kept a low profile.] [Except for a few high-ranking members of the Cangyun Holy Land and himself, no one knows Xiaoqing''s real name.] [Outsiders only know that there is a saintess in the Cangyun Holy Land who has been in seclusion for a long time!] [Dahu felt his mind was overwhelmed.] [You not only know the War God Art but also know about Xiaoqing!] [In Dahu''s memory, there is only one person like this.][And that is Jiang Yifeng, the one who taught him, his only master in his heart.] [But he clearly saw his "master" self-destruct and die!] [Could it be reincarnation?] [But to reincarnate, wouldn''t you need to be above the Immortal Realm to seed?] [He remembers that at the time, his "master" didn''t have the Immortal Realm cultivation!]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [What is going on here?] [Instantly, Dahu became more wary of you.] [After all, in his view, his "master" is dead and didn''t have the cultivation to reincarnate.] [So, you are very suspicious now.] [Not only have you practiced the War God Art, but you also know about Xiaoqing.] [It''s as if you deliberately investigated his past.] [And you even set up an arena, defeating all the Chosen in the Central Region, drawing him out.] [Could you be an enemy of his "master"?] [He still remembers when he first met his "master," who was severely injured, even his soul was gravely damaged!] [It took hundreds of years to recover.] [For a moment, Liang Dahu''s mind filled with various scenarios.] [Of course, you can''t me him.] [He was deducing based onmon sense; who would know you are beyondmon sense?] [After a long silence, Dahu stared at you warily and asked, "Who exactly are you?"] [Although you were unaware of Dahu''s thoughts, you sensed his cautious behavior.] [You sighed inwardly: It seems Dahu has misunderstood something.] [But how should you exin it?] [An idea struck you!] ["Dahu, do you remember when you were just a small hunter from a remote vige, and now look at you..."] [You began recounting your past with Dahu based on the residual images in your mind and the descriptions from the previous simtion.] [For instance, how you hunted together, lived together.] [Even the first time Dahu tasted demonic beast meat, and so on!] [You left no detail unspoken, sharing everything you knew.] [As you continued to narrate, the always brave and fearless Dahu, in the eyes of outsiders, had tears welling up.] [Men don''t easily shed tears, only when truly heartbroken; and you, as his "master," were precisely Liang Dahu''s sorrow!] [He felt that everything he was, was created by his "master."] [If it weren''t for you teaching him martial arts, he would have remained a mere hunter.] [It was as if you had given him a new life.] [But at the time of your "self-destruction" death, he was still so weak, unable to save you.] [This has been Dahu''s long-standing pain!] [Even after all these years, the scene of your "self-destruction" is still vivid in his memory.] [After a long time, as you finished your story, Liang Dahu suddenly knelt before you with a thud, softly calling out, "Master!"] [At this moment, Liang Dahu was convinced that you were his "master."] [After all, if you had investigated him, you would only have looked into significant events, right?] [It''s impossible for you to know such trivial matters from before he began his cultivation.] [Some things, if you hadn''t recounted them now, he himself would have had a vague memory of.] [How could an outsider possibly have investigated them?] [Unless you were an unparalleled expert capable of perceiving all past events.] [But such an expert would have no need to deceive him.] [This is why Liang Dahu was certain you were his "master"!] [In the blink of an eye, several days passed.] [You had already followed Dahu back to the Cangyun Holy Land, bing a guest of honor there.] [During these days, you also exined to Dahu the reason for your "resurrection" with a well-intentioned lie.] [You told him that you were originally a powerful being above the Immortal Realm, and although your cultivation hadn''t fully recovered after your self-destruction, you still managed to use the method of reincarnation.] [This exnation was reasonable and well-founded.] [After all, when you met Dahu, you were indeed gravely injured.] [Whether you fully recovered or not, you never specifically told anyone, nor did any other Immortal Realm expert deliberately investigate your injuries.] [So now, it''s entirely up to you to say.] [After hearing your exnation, Liang Dahu suddenly understood.] [So that''s how it is.] [No wonder you, Master, could reincarnate.] [Liang Dahu even filled in many details on his own.] [He now thought about how powerful the War God Art you passed on to him was.] [Could it be that before you were injured, you were not just an Immortal Realm expert, but perhaps something even greater?] [Previously, he hadn''t thought deeply about the War God Art, but now the more he thought about it, the more he believed this possibility was significant!] [He felt that perhaps you hadn''t even fully recovered your peak cultivation.] [Liang Dahu''s eyes were filled with admiration as he looked at you.] [One could say, the most deadly is the invisible imagination.] [During these days, you also met Xiaoqing.] [At this time, Xiaoqing had already be a Mystic Immortal Realm expert.] [As for herbat strength? Your Eye of Insight gave no evaluation.] [But you estimated she wouldn''t be weaker than Dahu.] [After all, in the previous simtion, Ye Xiaoqing was also a Chosen capable of battling above her level.] [Seeing Ye Xiaoqing with such cultivation, you couldn''t help but wonder if these were the hidden Chosen of the major Holy Lands.] [Suddenly, you had some new ideas.] [If the major Holy Lands still had such hidden Chosen, could your arena continue to be set up?] [After inquiring with Dahu and Xiaoqing, the answer you received was: "No!"] [The reason Ye Xiaoqing was hidden was simply that the Cangyun Holy Land didn''t want to be a target of public criticism.] [After all, having one Dahu in the Cangyun Holy Land was already enough to make other Holy Lands wary.] [If they exposed another Ye Xiaoqing who could simrly crush her peers, it would be very troublesome.] [You immediately understood.] [Indeed, it''s true that among cultivation sects, it''s not all harmony.] [Even if they are all on the righteous path, thepetition behind the scenes is often extremely dark.] [Not exposing Xiaoqing is, in fact, protecting her!] Chapter 209: Comprehend the Law of Time, Silent Destruction Fist is perfected! In the days that followed, you asked Liang Dahu about the rtionship between the Cangyun Sect and the Cangyun Holy Land, as well as how the invasion of the Divine Martial Continent was ovee, among a series of other questions. Liang Dahu was more than willing to share everything he knew with you. ording to Liang Dahu, the Cangyun Sect is a small branch of the Cangyun Holy Land. There are many such small branches of the Cangyun Holy Land scattered across the Divine Martial Continent. Their purpose is to gather Chosen from various regions. Upon hearing this exnation, you immediately understood. It might not just be the Cangyun Holy Land; other Holy Lands and even first-rate sects might have established their own branch sects in distant ces. As for the invasion of the Divine Martial Continent? Liang Dahu said it ended very suddenly.At that time, his cultivation level was low, so he wasn''t clear on the specifics. But he said, ording to the higher-ups of the Cangyun Holy Land, three supreme powerhouses intervened to suppress it. At this point, Liang Dahu gritted his teeth a bit. He said he still wanted to seek revenge on those enemies! Unfortunately, ording to the higher-ups of the Cangyun Holy Land, the invaders were all driven out of the Divine Martial Continent, and even the rift they used to invade was sealed. After saying this, Liang Dahu suddenly thought of something and looked at you! "With Master still around, should we still seek revenge in the future?" You certainly didn''t know what Liang Dahu was thinking. Most of your doubts were resolved, so you didn''t ask further questions. In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this and smiled slightly. The "disciple" he took in during the simtion was quite a good person! He was even a bit moved. He just didn''t know if there would be a chance to meet in reality. "Will we meet?" Jiang Yifeng murmured, eventually shaking his head. Probably not, as the timelines are too far apart. The Divine Martial Continent might not even exist anymore. He didn''t dwell on this issue. As for who intervened to stop the invasion of the Divine Martial Continent? Jiang Yifeng could already guess. Those supreme powerhouses were likely the few Dao-level powerhouses. After all, they were the strongest! He continued to look at the simtor. In the days that followed, you nned to keep challenging people to battles, constantly trying to trigger the "Invincible Will." Although this talent didn''t significantly help in improving cultivation, it allowed you toprehend morews, which was a solid enhancement tobat power. Unfortunately, it''s now difficult to find people of the same or higher realm to fight against. You had already battled most of the Chosen in the Central Region. You even tried to challenge Liang Dahu again. But you found that the "Invincible Will" had limitations; once you fought someone, even if you won again, there were no benefits. As for not seeking peers and instead looking for older generation powerhouses? You tried that too! They simply ignored you. Actually, it''s not just ignoring. At your level, those cultivators of the Immortal Dao in the same realm could be in seclusion for hundreds or thousands of years. Your calls might not even reach them. After all, it''s not a particrly significant matter. Their sects might not disturb their seclusion. This made your n fall throughpletely. So, you no longer insisted on triggering the "Invincible Will" talent. Instead, you began a more flexible cultivation approach. You asionally went into seclusion to cultivate, sometimes went out for training, and even asionally practiced alchemy. Seclusion was to improve cultivation, while training was still in hopes of encountering enemies to trigger the "Invincible Will" talent. As for alchemy? It was, of course, for better cultivation in the future. Time passed slowly in your flexible cultivation. In the blink of an eye, over a hundred years passed. In the 180th year, your "Late Bloomer" talent activated the highest tenfold cultivation buff. This year, you took out an Enlightenment Pill and swallowed it in one gulp, then silently chanted, "Activate Inevitable Enlightenment!" This time, it was a cross-time simtion, so you didn''t have items from reality. The Enlightenment Pill was something you had refined over the years by gathering materials. The purpose was to wait for the "Late Bloomer" talent''s cultivation buff to reach its highest multiplier before consuming it. And the Inevitable Enlightenment talent was the same; you had umted a total of 60 uses. You hadn''t used it all this time to maximize the cultivation effect. After activating Inevitable Enlightenment, you began diligently cultivating the Silent Destruction Fist. As for why you chose the Silent Destruction Fist? It was because you had been unable toprehend the Law of Time, and the Silent Destruction Fist had been stuck at the mastery stage, unable to progress. You wanted to use the high-efficiency cultivation speed provided by the talent and the enlightenment effect to make a breakthrough. In your state of enlightenment, you continuously swung your fists, cultivating the Silent Destruction Fist. You kept pondering what time was. In your mind, as long as youprehended the Law of Time, the Silent Destruction Fist would surely reach perfection. After all, you had seeded once in a previous simtion. "Time, time, what is the essence of time?" ording to your understanding before crossing over, time was just a unit of measurement and shouldn''t exist. But in this world, the Law of Time indeed exists.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om For a moment, you couldn''t figure it out orprehend it. Time passed bit by bit. You seemed to have an epiphany and softly eximed, "Time is speed!" The Silent Destruction Fist you swung instantly elerated, at least several dozen times faster than before. "Time is slowness!" The fist intent of the Silent Destruction Fist you had already swung was almost imperceptible to the naked eye; but with your words, it slowed down. Not only did it slow down, but it even reduced to a snail''s pace. "Time is speed within slowness!" You swung another Silent Destruction Fist. This punch was slow, but in the path of the Silent Destruction Fist, all the flowers and trees quickly withered. In an instant, your Silent Destruction Fist broke through to the perfect realm. You finallyprehended a trace of the power of time. In fact, your previously mastered Silent Destruction Fist could achieve this. But you didn''t understand the principle behind it, so it was difficult to break through. This speed within slowness was actually about slowing down the environment around the target while elerating the target''s own time. Rtively speaking, this created the effect of the Silent Destruction Fist''s withering over time. You looked at the effect of this punch. Thinking in your heart, speed within slowness can cause the effect of time passing. So, could "slowness within speed" bring dead wood back to life? Thinking of it, you acted. You changed direction and punched a withered tree, murmuring, "Time is slowness within speed!" With one punch, the environment around your Silent Destruction Fist elerated instantly, and the flowers and grass outside the fist intent withered in an instant. And your target, that withered tree? Well, it remained withered, with no significant change. Your experiment failed! Chapter 210: Research and develop the Time Acceleration Formation! [You frown slightly, carefully staring at the withered tree.] [You discover that the tree is not rejuvenating but is actually aging, turning yellow.] [It''s just thatpared to the flowers and trees outside the Silent Destruction Fist, it''s much slower.] [You keep pondering.] [Is it because your strength is insufficient? Or is your direction wrong?] [Time passes by, second by second.] [Suddenly, you recall that many people speak of the river of time, the river of time!] [If time truly is a great river, then it always flows in one direction.] [Even if you can slow its flow,]N?v(el)B\\jnn[it still moves forward.] [So, if you want the withered tree to bloom again, merely slowing it down is not enough.] [You need the river to flow backward!] [With this thought, your understanding of the Law of Time breaks through to a minor achievement.] [Feeling the enhancement of the Law of Time, you know your idea is correct.] [But thinking is one thing, how do you actually reverse time?] [Time trickles away.] [You continue to ponder in your enlightenment.] [Years pass, and your enlightenment on time finally concludes!] [In the end, you never found a way to reverse time.] [However, you did gain something during this period.] [During your enlightenment, you constantlybined the ways of speeding up and slowing down time, then integrated them with your formation insights.] [You sessfully created a time eleration formation!] [However, this isn''t really an invention.] [As far as you know, Cangyun Holy Land and some major sects all have their own time eleration secret realms.] [In these secret realms, the flow of time can be adjusted.] [This allows cultivators to enhance their cultivation faster.] [This is why the Chosen on the Divine Martial Continent can quickly advance to the Immortal realm.] [Of course, it''s only a quick way to reach the Immortal realm!] [Because beyond the Immortal realm, cultivation requiresprehending various powers ofws.] [And in the time eleration secret realms, there aren''t as many powers ofws as in the outside world.] [So, cultivators above the Immortal realm rarely use time secret realms.] [Unless their understanding ofws is already high, but their spiritual energy cultivation can''t keep up, they might use the time secret realm to elerate.] [But such cases are extremely rare.] [The time eleration formation you developed is the same.] [It doesn''t help much with your cultivation, it''s just a toy you researched!] [Shortly after your enlightenment ends, an elder from Cangyun Holy Land finds you and talks with you for a long time.] [After that, you leave Cangyun Holy Land.] [Originally, you nned to say goodbye to Da Hu and Xiao Qing.] [But you learn that they have entered a secret realm, and it''s uncertain when they wille out.] [In the end, you only leave them a farewell letter!] [As for why you left?] [Because Cangyun Holy Land asked you to leave!] [Actually, it''s not really asking you to leave.] [You did bring them some trouble.] [You have been living in Cangyun Holy Land for over two hundred years.] [Other sects outside think you have joined Cangyun Holy Land.] [This has caused them quite a bit of trouble.] [After all, Cangyun Holy Land already has a Chosen like Da Hu, and if you, who defeated Da Hu, also join them,] [when you both fully grow to the Saint realm, wouldn''t Cangyun Holy Land dominate?] [So other sects have been pressuring Cangyun Holy Land, even causing small-scale conflicts.] [This is also why Cangyun Holy Land has been reluctant to reveal that they have another Chosen like Xiao Qing.] [So, you understand Cangyun Holy Land''s actions.] [After leaving Cangyun Holy Land, you begin to travel alone.] [In the 300th year, you easily y a Mystic Immortal realm demon cultivator.] [In the 320th year, you eradicate a group of True Immortal realm demonic beasts.] [In the 350th year...] [In the 500th year, while traveling alone, you suddenly see a beam of golden light shooting into the sky.] [Curious, you head towards the source of the golden light.] [When you arrive, you find that a secret realm has opened.] [By now, arge crowd has gathered outside the secret realm.] [After some inquiries, you learn that this is a Heaven Immortal realm secret realm.] [Only those at the Earth Immortal realm or below can enter.] [Upon receiving this information, you feel a bit disappointed!] [You lose all interest in the secret realm.] [You can''t enter, there''s nothing you can do.] [But just as you''re about to leave, you see a familiar figure!] [Su Mushuang!] [And beside her is a man, her senior brother.] [Seeing them,] [the doubts in your heart rise again: Is Su Mushuang rted to the mother in the previous simtion?] [And the man beside her, he looks familiar.] [Previously in the Extreme Heaven Sect, when you tried to use the Eye of Insight to investigate him, Lu Jidao interrupted you.] [Now that no one is in your way, you quickly activate the Eye of Insight.] [Jiang Fushan: Newly entered Earth Immortal realm, peerless Chosen!] [Seeing the information, you are stunned.] ["Is this... my father?" Your current feelings are indescribable.] [Now, you are almost certain that this Su Mushuang and Jiang Fushan are your father and mother.] [You just don''t know if they lived until three billion yearster or reincarnated several times.] [After all, as long as a cultivator breaks through to the Immortal realm, they have the means for reincarnation and rebirth.] [Reincarnating and regaining memories, using their original names isn''t strange?] [No, that''s not right!] [You suddenly remember that your father in reality has no memories!] [Which means, it''s unlikely he would use his original name.] [Without memories, he just happened to end up with Su Mushuang again?] [You look at Su Mushuang in the distance and chuckle softly: "Have you never reincarnated, or is someone else controlling things?"] In reality, Jiang Yifeng sees this. He instantly thinks of many things. Indeed, his father has no memories, so why would he still use his original name? Either the Jiang Fushan and Su Mushuang in this simtion aren''t his parents. It''s all just a coincidence! But could there really be so many coincidences? Jiang Yifeng thinks this possibility is very small. Or someone is deliberately orchestrating it. Someone is controlling everything, including naming his father. And the most likely person is Su Mushuang, his mother whom he has never met. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng feels it''s really time to seriously find this mother he hasn''t met. If she truly hasn''t reincarnated, and has lived for over three billion years, the secrets she knows must be vast! Keeping this thought in mind, Jiang Yifeng continues to look at the simtor. Chapter 211: Dao-level Battle, Jiang Yifengs Crisis After discovering Jiang Fushan and Su Mushuang, who are suspected to be your parents, you no longer have the urge to leave immediately. After all, in your heart, you''ve already epted them as your "parents" (even though they haven''t given birth to you yet!). So, you''re quite curious about them. You want to see what their experiences were like when they were young. Three days pass in the blink of an eye. The secret realm opens, and you see your "parents" rush into it. Their strength is currently at the initial Earth Immortal realm, which isn''t the highest among those entering the secret realm. For a moment, you even feel a bit worried. In previous simtions, when you saw your father in danger, you were often facing a crisis yourself, so you didn''t feel it as strongly!But now, it''s different. You are not in danger, but you are watching your father take risks. It''s a very peculiar feeling. Time passes. A month goes by in the blink of an eye, and the secret realm opens again. At the moment the secret realm opens, two figures, covered in blood, rush out. After exiting the secret realm, they don''t stop and immediately speed off into the distance. "It seems these two must have obtained some valuable treasures!" an old man beside you says, chatting with another person. As soon as the old man finishes speaking, the other person asks, "Should we...?" while making a throat-slitting gesture. Seeing this, a sh of killing intent appears in your eyes. The two who just came out of the secret realm are Jiang Fushan and Su Mushuang. These are your parents who haven''t even given birth to you yet. And these two people are discussing attacking them right in front of you. This is simply intolerable! You throw a punch full of anger. In an instant, the two True Immortal realm experts are reduced to nothing. In fact, there are quite a few other strong individuals around you, all waiting outside the secret realm. These people are the elders or rtives of those who entered the secret realm. They are waiting for their loved ones toe out! If they obtained treasures, these stronger individuals would protect them from being robbed! You originally thought these two were the same. Unexpectedly, they were two bandits. If there are two, could there be a third? Thinking of this, you immediately chase in the direction of Jiang Fushan and Su Mushuang. Actually, you were nning to leave alone. The so-called "parents" were just a curiosity, something to observe! Now that you''ve observed for so long, it''s enough. After all, you still need to focus on your own cultivation. But unexpectedly, there are such bandits lurking around. Both emotionally and rationally, you can''t just stand by. Half a dayter. Jiang Fushan and Su Mushuang feel they''ve escaped far enough andnd on the ground. At this moment, the joy on their faces is unmistakable. The gains from this secret realm are incredibly rich for them. However, just as they let their guard down, several strong individuals appear! Among them are several at the Heaven Immortal realm, and even some at the True Immortal realm. With only the initial Earth Immortal realm, Jiang Fushan and Su Mushuang are no match for such enemies. Just as they prepare to give up their treasures to avoid disaster, yound directly in front of them. Without a word, you strike with several consecutive palms! You kill all those who wanted to rob them. Afterward, you even help heal their injuries! After doing all this, you don''t say a word and leave immediately. Within tens of thousands of miles, you''ve already checked, and there are no more treasure hunters. As for future issues, you believe they can handle them themselves. After all, you can''t dy your own cultivation for too long because of them. After you leave, Jiang Fushan and Su Mushuang are left with puzzled expressions. What just happened? Why did you leave so suddenly? They both recognized you. But they can''t understand why you saved them. Especially Su Mushuang, she knows that her attitude towards you wasn''t good at the time. Unfortunately, you left too quickly for them to ask. In the end, they can only keep your kindness in their hearts. Time flows like water. Two thousand years pass in the blink of an eye. As your cultivation level gets higher, the speed of improvement bes slower! In the entire two thousand years, your cultivation only advanced from the early stage of the four-star Ancient God realm to the mid-stage of the five-star Ancient God realm! (equivalent to the Mystic Immortal realm in the Immortal Dao) Of course, during this time, you didn''t just improve your cultivation. Your various powers ofws have also seen significant enhancement. Now, your truebat power can rival that of a Supreme Unity Golden Immortal realm cultivator in the Immortal Dao. Of course, it''s only a match; defeating them is actually not easy. After all, there is a gap of two major realms. Besides the improvement in cultivation, during these years, Da Hu also found you. He almost left Cangyun Holy Land for you. In the end, it was only with your persuasion that he reluctantly stayed in Cangyun Holy Land. In the third millennium, one day, while you are cultivating, you suddenly feel a violent tremor in the void! Immediately, countless blood rains fall! "A Saint has fallen?" you think of this immediately. But how could it be? Isn''t it three hundred million years ago now? Has a holy war urred? But there are still Dao-level experts in the world now, it shouldn''t be! How could they allow a battle between Saint-level beings? As the blood rain falls, it creates huge craters on the Divine Martial Continent. This blood rainsts for a full three hundred years! And during these three hundred years, you also learn a lot of information from Da Hu. Since Da Hu found you, your connection has never been broken. ording to Da Hu, the blood rain is not from a battle between Saint realm experts, but from an even stronger existence!n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om Da Hu says: This is what the ancestor of Cangyun Holy Land said. That ancestor is a Saint realm expert himself, so what he says should be correct! Upon learning this information, your brows furrow even deeper. Beyond the Saint realm? Is it those few Dao-level experts? But why would they fight? You have an ominous feeling! Three months pass in the blink of an eye. Da Hu suddenly brings Xiao Qing to your temporary residence. As soon as he sees you, he urgently says, "Master, run quickly, all the sects on the Divine Martial Continent are joining forces to exterminate the Divine Dao cultivators!" Chapter 212: Encountering a major obstacle! Run [You hear Dahu''s words and frown deeply!] ["All sects uniting to exterminate Divine Dao cultivators?" What does this mean?] [As far as you know, besides yourself, there are almost no true practitioners of the Divine Dao in this world.] [Damn it, how is this different from naming you specifically for extermination?] [You can''t quite figure it out!] [Your cultivation in the Divine Dao was already exposed thousands of years ago when you set up a challenge arena against the Chosen!] [Back then, those sects didn''t have any reaction.] [Why are they suddenly deciding to exterminate Divine Dao cultivators now?] [What on earth is going on?][You haven''t done anything to provoke public outrage over the years!] [So, you carefully inquire with Dahu.] [But Dahu doesn''t know the reason either; he only knows that the leaders of various sects have suddenly started discussing the extermination of Divine Dao cultivators!] [There must be a reason for everything, right?] [The actions of these sects seem very abrupt.] [You find their decision quite strange.] [You ponder for a long time, unable toe up with a reasonable exnation.] [You have no enmity with these sects.] [They truly have no reason to want to kill you.] [If only a few sects wanted to exterminate Divine Dao cultivators, to kill you, you wouldn''t find it strange.] [But ording to Dahu, it''s basically the entire Divine Martial Continent''s sects!] [It feels as if there''s someone they can''t refuse,manding them in unison.] ["That''s right!" Suddenly, you have a new thought.] [Could it be that the people of these sects are also forced, acting under someone''s orders?] [But thinking about it, something still feels off.] [The only ones who couldmand all the sects would be Dao-level powerhouses, right?] [They also have no reason to want to kill you!] [Moreover, if they really wanted to kill you, they could do it with a flick of a finger; why bothermanding these sects to do it?] [It seems a bit redundant!] [No, that''s not right.] [You suddenly think of that bloody rain from hundreds of years ago.] [It''s said that was a battle between powerhouses above the Saint realm.] [Could it be that the Dao-level powerhouse who wants to kill you is indeed unable to act because of that battle?] [So theymand the sects of the Divine Martial Continent to hunt you down?] [If that''s the case.] [Then the sudden alliance of these sects to hunt you down wouldn''t seem so abrupt.] [But why would a Dao-level powerhouse want to exterminate Divine Dao cultivators, to kill you?] [You know, during previous simtions, you learned that those Dao-level powerhouses, although aware of the great cause and effect of the Divine Dao.] [They were curious about you instead, wanting to know what the cause and effect were!] [They didn''t have any intention to kill you just because you cultivated the Divine Dao.] [You feel that there must be something happening that you don''t know about.] [As for what that is?] [Perhaps only those Dao-level powerhouses would know.] [So, you stop thinking about it.] [After thanking Dahu, you prepare to leave this ce.] [After all, with your current cultivation, you can''t face the siege of so many sects.] [No, even without a siege, if those sects send someone at the Saint realm, you have no chance of survival.] [Now that you''ve learned the news in advance.] [Even knowing the slim chance of survival, you refuse to sit and wait for death.] [You want to try to leave the Divine Martial Continent.] [Soon after, you leave alone.] [Dahu originally wanted to go with you.] [But both you and Xiaoqing advised him against it.] [You told him: having more people would only make it easier to expose your location, especially since many know of his close rtionship with you, they might use him to pinpoint your location.] [This finally made Dahu give up his n to share life and death with you!] [And indeed, that was the case.] [Not long after you left, people from Cangyun Holy Land, along with arge group of powerhouses, found Dahu.] [They questioned Dahu about whether he knew your whereabouts.] [Naturally, Dahu denied it.] [But everyone knew Liang Dahu was lying.] [Fortunately, Liang Dahu was the Holy Son of Cangyun Holy Land, so they couldn''t use force on him.] [In the end, it was left unresolved.] [However, Liang Dahu and Ye Xiaoqing were soon summoned back to Cangyun Holy Land and forced into seclusion.] [Clearly, Cangyun Holy Land didn''t want them involved in your situation.] [As for you?] [After parting ways with Dahu and the others.] [You headed straight for the border of the Divine Martial Continent, aiming to enter the chaos.] [Searching for a way to leave the Divine Martial Continent!] [After all, in previous simtions, you knew there were other continents like the True Spirit Continent and the Demonic God Continent outside the Divine Martial Continent.] [You believe that as long as you leave the Divine Martial Continent, there might still be a sliver of hope for survival!] [In the blink of an eye, more than two years have passed.] [During this time, you''ve encountered numerous ambushes along the way!] [Fortunately, the strongest opponent you faced was only at the Supreme Unity Golden Immortal level.] [You unleashed your full power, and after a bloody battle, you managed to kill that Supreme Unity Golden Immortal level powerhouse, crossing two realms to do so.] [In that battle, you also sustained significant injuries.] [Fortunately, in the following months, you didn''t encounter any crises.] [You smoothly recovered to your peak state.] [And now, you face another crisis.] [Although there''s only one opponent, they possess the Great Principal Golden Immortal level cultivation.] [Crossing three major realms to defeat an enemy?] [You don''t know if anyone can do it!] [But you know that with your currentbat power, it''s impossible.] [You''re not that arrogant!] [Suddenly, you feel lost about the road ahead.] [Could it be that this simtion is going to end here?] [But you still feel a bit unwilling.] [ording to your calctions, if you had a few more months, you could enter the chaos.] [Once you enter the chaos, you might be able to leave the Divine Martial Continent.] [Just a little more time.] ["No, I can''t give up!" you murmur softly.] [The Great Principal Golden Immortal level powerhouse hears your muttering.] [Suddenly, he''s intrigued, wanting to see how you n to struggle!] [And just as he bes interested and doesn''t immediately make a move.] [You quickly turn around and vanish from the spot.]n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [You channel all the speed from the Law of Wind and the Law of Time into your body techniques, running at full speed.] [Fighting is definitely not an option, so running is your only choice.] [As for whether you can outrun him?] [You have to try to find out.] [In the past, you would have preferred a bloody battle rather than running.] [After all, body techniques had always been your weakness.] [But afterprehending the speed aspect of the Law of Time, the situation changed.] [Your shallow understanding of the Law of Time doesn''t add much to yourbat power yet.] [But it has caused a qualitative change in your body techniques.] [Now, you run incredibly fast.] Chapter 213: Little Black reappears! [Your sudden escape left the Great Principal Golden Immortal expert momentarily stunned.] [So your idea of not giving up is actually running away?] [To be fair, you''re pretty fast at escaping.] [In the blink of an eye, you were out of sight!] ["What a pity! You ran into a Great Principal Golden Immortal!" he muttered to himself.] [He thought you still didn''t understand the weight of a Great Principal Golden Immortal.] [No matter how fast you run, can you be faster than crossing space?] [You must know, once you reach the level of a Great Principal Golden Immortal, you can break through the void and travel through it.] [It''s like having a much faster route.][Once a Great Principal Golden Immortal locks onto you, even if you run for three to five months, what does it matter?] [Moreover, he is a Great Principal Golden Immortal who excels in thews of space.] [With the use of spacews, a few spatial jumps make catching up to you a breeze!] [Thinking of this, the Great Principal Golden Immortal couldn''t even be bothered to chase you.] [Instead, he leisurely took out a Great Luo realm demonic beast''s corpse from his storage ring, preparing for a little barbecue.] [Clearly, this Great Principal Golden Immortal expert was very confident.] [And you were unaware of all this.] [At this moment, you were still flying at full speed.] [You didn''t slow down just because you didn''t see anyone chasing you.] [After all, this was a matter of life and death, and you couldn''t afford to be careless.] [Five days passed in the blink of an eye.] [Suddenly, you sensed a ripple in the void behind you.] [In an instant, you saw the Great Principal Golden Immortal expert emerge from the void.] [Seeing this, you were taken aback.] [Damn, the opponent actually mastered thews of space.] [And it seems to a considerable extent.] [How can you y against that?] [However, despite your thoughts, your speed didn''t slow down; it even increased as if going into Berserk Mode.] [You realized the opponent mastered thews of space, but you still didn''t understand the weight of a Great Principal Golden Immortal.] [The Great Principal Golden Immortal expert had just stepped out of the void when he saw you speeding away!] [No, by now he couldn''t even see your silhouette.] [Seeing this, he frowned slightly.] [You''re running a bit too fast!] [In the brief moment he crossed from the void into reality.] [You had already run so far.] [He hadn''t expected that when you realized he could easily catch up, you still wouldn''t give up.] [Not long after, the Great Principal Golden Immortal expert suddenly chuckled, "Then let''s have some fun!"] [In the following time, you kept elerating your flight.] [While the Great Principal Golden Immortal continued to cross through space.] [Each time, you narrowly escaped.] [But in fact, it was just the Great Principal Golden Immortal expert deliberately going easy on you.] [If he wanted to intercept you directly, he could easily position his spatial jumps ahead of your path.] [By then, when he appeared from the void, he would be right in front of you.] [Trying to escape then would be nearly impossible!] [Time passed!] [Unknowingly, you had been on the run for half a year.] [At this moment, you could vaguely see the edge of the Divine Martial Continent, and see that patch of chaos.] [You felt a bit of secret joy.] [You thought that as long as you entered the chaos, your chances of survival would greatly increase.] [But just then, the Great Principal Golden Immortal expert appeared in the void not far ahead of you.] [You wanted to turn around, but it was toote.] [The distance was too close.] [In an instant, the Great Principal Golden Immortal expertunched several attacks at you.] [You defended with all your might, but soon you were covered in wounds, barely clinging to life.] [The Great Principal Golden Immortal expert looked down at you from above, sighing, "If you hadn''t run to this chaotic ce, I could have chased you for many years."]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [Then, he began to cast a spell, saying, "Don''t me us, we were forced into this!"] [As soon as he finished speaking, his final strike came crashing down on you.] [At this moment, you had no strength left to resist.] [You knew that this time you were doomed.] [However, from the Great Principal Golden Immortal expert''s words, you inferred some information.] [They were indeed ordered to hunt you down.] [Moreover, he said: If you hadn''te to this chaotic ce, we could have yed for many years.] [These words were worth pondering.] [Perhaps many people on the Divine Martial Continent didn''t really want to harm you.] [They were just forced to put on a show.] [No wonder you hadn''t encountered any truly strong enemies in the past year or two.] [Perhaps most of these people putting on a show were in the majority.] [But from the words of the Great Principal Golden Immortal expert, it was clear.] [Even if it was just a show, there were limits.] [And that was not letting you enter the chaos!] [But why?] [Couldn''t figure it out, couldn''t understand!] ["ng" Just as you quietly awaited death, a phoenix cry suddenly echoed across the sky and earth.] [Suddenly, a massive shadow came roaring out of the chaos.] [It appeared in front of you in an instant, using its body to block the Great Principal Golden Immortal''s final strike.] [Then, a ck me spewed from the ck phoenix''s mouth, instantly incinerating the Great Principal Golden Immortal.] [After finishing everything, the ck phoenix lowered its head, rubbing against you continuously.] [It seemed to be acting coy?] [At this moment, you were still a bit dazed.] [The change came too suddenly.] [Looking at the massive ck phoenix in front of you, you whispered, "Is it Little ck?"] [Hearing your words, the ck phoenix leaped with joy.] [It seemed happy that you still remembered it.] [But just then, a gigantic Gluttonous Beast emerged from the chaos.] [It spoke in human tongue, urging, "Hurry, go to the Demonic God Continent!"] [Little ck seemed to understand the gravity of the situation, using its massive ck wings to wrap around you as it headed into the chaos.] [Destination, Demonic God Continent.] [And shortly after Little ck took you away.] [Two figures appeared before the massive Gluttonous Beast.] [They looked coldly at the Gluttonous Beast, "Gluttonous Beast Demon God, we are both Dao-level, do you really want to stop us?"] [Upon hearing this, the Gluttonous Beast Demon Godughed heartily, "Dao-level? Bah, if I reached Dao-level and still had to be a dog, I''d rather die!"] Chapter 214: Warning from the Great Way? Upon hearing the words of the Gluttonous Beast Demon God, the faces of the two Dao-level experts turned as red as pig liver. "Is this even human speech?" "Did it actually say we''re like dogs?" "If we had known this beast was so ungrateful, we shouldn''t have helped it dispel the cmity energy back then!" However, now was not the time to regret past actions. The two Dao-level experts suppressed their anger and attempted to persuade the Gluttonous Beast Demon God once more. After all, with this Gluttonous Beast in the way, not only was it difficult for them to take direct action, but even the demonic beasts of the Demonic God Continent would shield it. This was very disadvantageous for them.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om Thus, they continued, "Gluttonous Beast, the Dao has issued a warning. The Divine Dao is the root of world destruction. Don''t be stubborn!"The Gluttonous Beast Demon God chuckled lightly, "Ha, what a joke! The Dao? It''s just my backup food. What does its warning have to do with me?" As if feeling it hadn''t said enough, the Gluttonous Beast Demon God added, "You are both dignified Dao-level experts, yet you act like the Dao''s dogs. I''m ashamed to be associated with you!" The two Dao-level experts felt their heads ache upon hearing the Gluttonous Beast Demon God''s words. Great, it''s like ying music to a bull. Are they really acting like the Dao''s dogs? They were only doing this for the sake of all living beings. Having reached the Dao-level, they could sense the cmities of heaven and earth. They indeed felt the impending disaster. Although the cmity seemed to be years away, they weren''t sure what it was! Meanwhile, they received a warning from the Dao. It said the Divine Dao was the key to the world-ending cmity! That''s why they were willing to do whatever it took to eradicate the Divine Dao. They did all this without a hint of selfishness, even suppressing their own exploration of the Divine Dao''s cause and effect, all for the people of the world. Yet, the Gluttonous Beast used them of being the Dao''s dogs! Once wasn''t enough; it mocked them repeatedly, as if it were inhuman. A gentleman can endure, but there are limits; the two Dao-level experts finally gave up persuading the Gluttonous Beast Demon God. In an instant, the three Dao-level experts shed again. But was the Gluttonous Beast Demon God really just opposing the Dao? Of course not! Back when the Gluttonous Beast Demon God was afflicted by your Cmity Tribtion Body, it gained many new insights about cmities after recovering. A cmity is also a rebirth! Because after experiencing that cmity, it became stronger than before. This is also why it could barely hold off two Dao-level experts on its own. So, in the eyes of the Gluttonous Beast Demon God, cmities are not frightening! As long as one ovees them, they might bring new hope to the world. Of course, these are not the reasons why the Gluttonous Beast Demon God helped you. It intervened to block the other two Dao-level experts simply because the ck Phoenix offered it half a pound of immortal blood! This is the immortal blood of the ck Phoenix. The Gluttonous Beast had been craving it for a long time. Back then, several Dao-level experts tried to kill the ck Phoenix, but it was impossible. No, they did kill it, but it would resurrect! Moreover, the ck Phoenix''s resurrection was quite peculiar. It didn''t need to resurrect in the same ce. Anywhere the ck Phoenix had lingered could be a potential resurrection site. Such a situation is extremely rare. Not to mention the ck Phoenix''s strange resurrection locations. Being killed by Dao-level experts, normally, there wouldn''t even be a chance for reincarnation. But the ck Phoenix not only didn''t need reincarnation, it could perfectly resurrect each time. It''s simply beyond imagination. Initially, when they discovered the ck Phoenix''s unreasonable resurrection. Several Dao-level experts considered capturing the ck Phoenix for study. But it was futile! The ck Phoenix was very powerful, with half-Dao-level strength. Although the ck Phoenix couldn''t defeat them, capturing it alive was impossible! Because once the ck Phoenix realized it couldn''t win, it would simply die. After death, the ck Phoenix would resurrect elsewhere. So, the preciousness of the ck Phoenix''s blood is self-evident. As for killing the ck Phoenix and extracting the blood from its original body? That''s simply impossible. The ck Phoenix''s blood wasn''t in its physical body. Previously, when they killed the ck Phoenix, several Dao-level experts studied its physical body and couldn''t find a trace of blood. So, when the ck Phoenix proposed exchanging half a pound of blood for the Gluttonous Beast''s intervention to dy the two Dao-level experts. As a foodie, the Gluttonous Beast agreed without hesitation. The battle among the three Dao-level experts gradually moved away from the continent, entering chaos, entering the void! As for you? At this moment, you were being carried by Little ck into the Demonic Beast Continent. Your injuries were severe, but under Little ck''s care, you recovered quickly. In the blink of an eye, three years passed. Your injuries had mostly healed. You looked at Little ck, trying tomunicate with it. But no matter how you asked, Little ck only responded with the "ng ng" sound of a phoenix''s cry. Other demonic beasts could speak humannguage before reaching the immortal realm; why was it different for Little ck? You had seen Little ck withstand a strike from a Great Principal Golden Immortal without a scratch. Its strength was undeniable. So why couldn''t it speak humannguage? However, it didn''t matter. You gave up on verbalmunication with Little ck and tried tomunicate using Divine Sense. Soon, you indeed established a connection with Little ck. Using your Divine Sense, you threw out a bunch of questions. For instance, how did Little ck recognize you? After all, your current identity was different from when you simted before. Also, how did Little ck know you were in danger? And so on! In the end, the answer you got was just two words: "a feeling." Little ck relied on an instinctive feeling; it felt you were familiar, felt you were its master, so it recognized you. Receiving this answer, you were left speechless. How abstract! As for how it knew you were in danger? Because as a half-step Dao-level, Little ck also heard the Dao''s warning! When it heard about the Divine Dao, it felt it was targeting you. After all, in its phoenix life, you were the only one confirmed to have cultivated the Divine Dao. So it found the Gluttonous Beast, who only knew how to eat, to help save you. Upon receiving this information, you furrowed your brows. Things seemed to be getting moreplicated. You never expected the source of everything to point to the Dao''s warning. But as far as you know, the Dao doesn''t have personal emotions. It shouldn''t deliberately target you. Could it be that the Dao developed its own consciousness and emotions? But that doesn''t make sense; even if the Dao developed consciousness and emotions, it shouldn''t target a small fry like you! Chapter 215: White Tiger Clans support [In the end, you think it''s still an issue with the Divine Dao.] [You''ve thought of two possibilities.] [First, the Divine Dao you cultivate might pose a threat to the Dao, prompting it to issue a warning for self-preservation.] [Second, the Dao has been manipted by your "past life''s" enemy!] [Actually, you believe the second possibility is more likely.] [After all, you don''t think the Divine Dao could harm the Dao.] [Moreover, you feel there''s a high probability that you had a past life, and you were very powerful.] [After all, in a previous simtion, a shadowy figure appeared, forcing the simtor to issue a warning.] [Such an existence could very well control or manipte the Dao.][But if it''s that person, why haven''t they acted personally?] [Suddenly, you think of a possibility.] [That shadowy figure is traversing various timelines searching for you but hasn''t found you, so they''ve left measures within the Dao.] [Once someone practicing the Divine Dao appears in any timeline, the Dao will issue a warning, using people from the original world to eliminate you.] [With this hypothesis, everything makes sense.] [In the end, you sigh, "Ah, the danger is growing everrger!"]n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om [You shake your head helplessly, realizing your strength is still insufficient.] [Even if the hypothesis is correct and you''ve figured everything out, yourck of strength still leaves you in danger.] [Thus, in the days that follow, you train even harder.] [And during your days of training, the chaotic barrier separating the three continents has unknowingly vanishedpletely.] [The Divine Martial Continent, True Spirit Continent, and Demonic Beast Continent are once again connected.] [Five years pass in the blink of an eye.] [One day, Little ckes to you, nudges you with its head, and then flies away.] [You watch Little ck''s departing figure, your brow furrowed with a hint of worry.] [Just now, Little ck used its Divine Sense to exin the reason for leaving.] [It said the Gluttonous Beast Demon God is struggling, and it needs to help.] [But how much can Little ck, at only a half-Dao level, contribute in a Dao-level battle?] [Although you know Little ck won''t die, the help it can provide might not be significant.] [You know that if Little ck and the others can''t hold on, your end is near.] [However, you''re unaware that the Demonic God Continent is already on the verge of copse.] [Indeed, after the barrier between the three continents disappeared.] [The strong from the Divine Martial Continent and True Spirit Continent are attacking the Demonic God Continent.] [And their purpose is simple: to kill you.] [This is an order from the Dao-level experts of those two continents, and no one dares to openly defy it.] [Yes, they don''t dare to openly defy it, but there are indeed many who arezy.] [Especially those at the Saint realm, who mostly just sit back and don''t act personally.] [After all, since the Dao-level experts haven''t decided the oue, they''re worried that if the Gluttonous Beast Demon God wins, it wille after them for revenge.] [Although this possibility is small, those at the Saint realm are unwilling to take the gamble.] [After all, to kill you, the Great Principal Golden Immortal level experts are more than enough.] [And the demonic beasts at the Saint realm on the Demonic God Continent are mostly the same.] [They also fear that if the Gluttonous Beast Demon God is defeated or killed, the two Dao-level experts from the True Spirit Continent and Divine Martial Continent will cause them trouble.] [So, they too engage in symbolic resistance, then send outrge numbers of demonic beasts below the Saint realm to block the people from the other two continents.] [The Saint realm experts from the various continents have reached a strange tacit understanding!] [It can only be said that the minds of Saints areplex.] [In the end, it''s still those below the Saint realm who fight desperately.] [But even so, the Demonic God Continent is on the brink of copse.] [After all, it''s two continents'' worth of strong attacking one continent.] [The number of strong is more than doubled.] [Another two years pass.] [The strong from the Divine Martial Continent and True Spirit Continent invade the Demonic God Continent, searching everywhere for your whereabouts.] [But you''re unaware of all this.] [One day, while you''re training, you suddenly sense arge number of cultivators approaching.] [You feel something is amiss.] [There shouldn''t be so many humans on the Demonic God Continent.] [You don''t have time to think; you get up and try to escape.] [But it''s impossible now.] [You''re surrounded, with people in all directions.] [Every direction has at least a Supreme Unity Golden Immortal expert stationed.] [You even spot several Great Principal Golden Immortal level experts.] [With your current strength, although you can defeat an average Supreme Unity Golden Immortal, you can''t end the battle quickly or open a swift escape route.] [With those Great Principal Golden Immortal level experts present, you almost have no way out.] ["Roar!" At this moment, the roar of tigers echoes through the heavens and earth.] [A group of White Tigerses roaring from afar.] [Among these White Tigers, there are even some at the Great Principal Golden Immortal level.] [In an instant, the White Tiger group is engaged in battle with the cultivators surrounding you.] [While you''re in a daze, a White Tiger strides up to you.] [It stares at you and speaks in humannguage, "Although I don''t know how you''ve changed like this, I feel you are him, my family!"] [The once Little White Tiger is no longer in its juvenile form.] [But its original intention has never changed.] [Over the years, it has been searching for the family member who adopted and taught it.] [But it has always been in vain.] [Until recently, it heard that a cultivator of the Divine Dao was being hunted by people from the Divine Martial Continent and True Spirit Continent.] [It immediately thought of you.] [After all, those who cultivate the Divine Dao are exceedingly rare.] [So, it immediately led arge number of its n to search for you on the Demonic God Continent.] [Now, it has finally found you.] [Although your appearance has changed and your aura is slightly different, it believes you are that person from the past!] [Little White Tiger doesn''t dwell on the past with you; after saying that one sentence, it joins the battle.] [Seeing the White Tiger n descend like divine soldiers, you feel a bit moved.] [Unexpectedly, that unintentional act during the simtion bore such fruit.] [However, you don''t dwell on it for long.] [Since the White Tiger n hase to the rescue, the immediate crisis is considered resolved!] [But you still think you shouldn''t let your guard down.] [It''s best to end the battle quickly and leave this ce.] [After all, if the first wave of enemies has arrived, a second wave might already be on the way.] [Thus, you unleash your full power and join the battle.] Chapter 216: Money moves the heart! As soon as you made your move, Little White recognized that you were using the Silent Destruction Fist from the War God Art.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om After all, it was your most skilledbat technique. At that moment, it became even more certain that it hadn''t mistaken you for someone else. The battle didn''tst long. The White Tiger n that Little White brought along was far more powerful than those surrounding you. In less than a day, they repelled all the enemies. Afterward, Little White invited you to the White Tiger n, saying they would ensure your safety. But you didn''t agree. After all, both the Divine Martial Continent and the True Spirit Continent were on the move.Those people before were just the vanguard. The real crisis was just beginning. How could a single White Tiger n possibly guarantee your safety? Moreover, you knew that your greatest threat was still those two Dao-level powerhouses. A Gluttonous Beast Demon God and a half-Dao level Little ck trying to hold off two Dao-level beings was destined to be unsustainable. You had long been prepared for the end of the simtion. Given that, why involve the White Tiger n? After all, you were no longer the naive person you once were; you knew this simtion was a real world. You didn''t want those who cared for you to be implicated for no reason. As for yourself? You''d run as long as you could. If truly cornered, at worst, you''d die. In simtions, after all, you''ve grown ustomed to dying. You had to admit, your thinking was reasonable. With your insistence, Little White Tiger didn''t force you. You soon parted ways. However, after parting with you, Little White Tiger took arge number of its n members and followed you, wanting to protect you. Little White Tiger wasn''t foolish; it could see you didn''t want to involve it. But you were its family! How could it let you face danger alone? In the blink of an eye, several days passed. You were once again attacked by cultivators from the Divine Martial Continent and the True Spirit Continent. The White Tiger n once again descended like divine soldiers, repelling the enemies. Seeing this, you felt both gratified and helpless. Gratified because Little White was truly good; for just a little help you gave it back then, it treated you so well. Helpless because with the White Tiger n protecting you like this, you were really worried about implicating them. You had thought about revealing the simtion, but during previous simtions, you had tested it and found you couldn''t speak of it. So, you could only exin to Little White Tiger, telling it you wouldn''t truly die, that you had the power of resurrection. You told it not to bring its n to protect you. Little White Tiger didn''t argue with you, nodding repeatedly in agreement. You originally thought it truly believed you. But not long after, when you were attacked again, Little White Tiger led the White Tiger n once more, descending like heavenly soldiers. In the end, you gave in and followed Little White to the White Tiger n''s territory. There was no choice; Little White was too stubborn! You couldn''t persuade it. No matter what you said, it didn''t believe you, thinking you were just making excuses not to involve it. Given that, for Little White''s safety, you could only agree to return to the White Tiger n with it. After all, although Little White was now very powerful, with strengthparable to a Great Principal Golden Immortal, you weren''t sure if a Saint realm expert would target you. ? If they did, your death would be a small matter, but with Little White''s temperament, it might also lose its life. So, it was better to return to the White Tiger n''s territory with it. At least in the White Tiger n''s territory, with their ancestor overseeing, ordinary people wouldn''t dare to intrude. And you had alsoe to terms with it; if someone truly dared to intrude into the White Tiger n just to kill you, if you found you couldn''t match them, at worst, you''d step forward and die. You believed that as long as you died, Little White shouldn''t be implicated. Several dayster, you arrived at the White Tiger n''s territory. The days that followed were quite peaceful. People from the Divine Martial Continent and the True Spirit Continent indeed didn''te knocking. You didn''t know if they feared the White Tiger n''s foundation or if there was some other reason. But in any case, it was a good thing. So, you didn''t think much of it and began to focus on cultivating. During this time, Little White told you it wanted to teach the War God Art to some of its n members and sought your consent. Naturally, you had no objections. After all, techniques are meant to be learned. Moreover, the White Tiger n was an ally. Spring passed and autumn came, and in the blink of an eye, three hundred years had gone by. In these few hundred years, your Divine Dao cultivation finally broke through to the six-star Ancient God realm. Originally, your cultivation wouldn''t have advanced so quickly. Back when you advanced from the four-star Ancient God realm to the five-star Ancient God realm, it took you thousands of years. This time, the rapid advancement was mainly due to two reasons. First, you used your Inevitable Enlightenment talent entirely to enhance your cultivation. Second, the resources provided by the White Tiger n were too abundant and excellent. Initially, you felt a bit embarrassed using the White Tiger n''s resources. But ording to Little White, those resources were useful to humans, but to them, they were merely collectibles. asionally, they would use them to exchange for items from other continents, but they weren''t of much use! Not to mentionrge ns like the White Tiger n, even many smaller ns possessed several. They let you use them freely. It was precisely because of this that you achieved such rapid advancement. During these few hundred years, you lived peacefully within the White Tiger n. But on the Demonic God Continent, chaos had long ensued. As for the reason? It was resources! Just as Little White had said, many resources useful to humans were previously unused by various ns on the Demonic God Continent, merely kept as collectibles. But now, people from the Divine Martial Continent and the True Spirit Continent had invaded. Initially, they might have only wanted toplete the tasks of Dao-level powerhouses and kill you. But in the process of constantly searching for you, the human cultivators from the Divine Martial Continent and the True Spirit Continent discovered that every demonic beast n possessed vast amounts of human cultivation resources and treasures. As the saying goes, wealth moves the heart; with so many treasures and resources, how could human cultivators not be tempted? Moreover, the corpses of demonic beasts themselves were considered premium resources in the eyes of humans. Thus, the campaign against you had long changed in nature. It had be a true war of plunder! And the number of human cultivators joining this plunder war was increasing, with even Saint realm experts starting to participate! Chapter 217: Chosens Ultimate Melody, Little White Tigers Peerless Strike [There''s no other way. On the vast Demonic God Continent, there were hardly any humans before, and the resources for human cultivation were too abundant.] [Even those Saint realm experts couldn''t resist the temptation.] [In fact, many people are silently grateful to you.] [If it weren''t for you, the barriers between the continents wouldn''t have opened, and those without enough strength wouldn''t have been able to reach the Demonic God Continent.] [They wouldn''t have known that the demons on this continent have such rich collections.] [Until now, only super ns like the White Tiger n, with half-Dao level experts guarding them, have not been invaded.]n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [In the blink of an eye, another half year passed.] [While you were cultivating, you suddenly heard a "bang"!] [Then, cracks appeared in the protective formation of the White Tiger n.][You think it might be the people hunting you down who have attacked the White Tiger n.] [However, you don''t panic. Instead, you check your own strength.] [Confirming that the improvement from this simtion is quite decent, you nod in satisfaction!] [Then you sigh softly, "Let''s leave it at that!"] [That''s right, you''re ready to give up.] [Actually, it''s not really giving up; it''s just that you''ve reached a dead end.] [Since the enemy dares to attack the White Tiger n and has shattered the protective formation,] [They must be confident.] [You think that in this case, you might as well die.] [To avoid causing trouble for Little White.] [With this thought, you walk straight outside.] [If you must die, it should be in front of those people.] [You haven''t forgotten that you have a one-time talent, "Peerless Strike," and you might as well take some down with you!] [But just as you take a few steps, an elderly White Tiger elder blocks your path.] [Little White stands obediently by its side.] [Judging by the situation, it seems to be an ancestor of the White Tiger n.] [Otherwise, Little White, the young n leader, wouldn''t be so restrained.] [The elderly White Tiger looks at you with a gratified smile and says, "Harboring a death wish? It seems you don''t want to trouble my White Tiger n!"] [Before you can respond, it pats Little White''s head and says, "Little one, it seems you haven''t chosen poorly. He''s indeed worth befriending!"] [Then, you see Little White fall into a deep sleep.] [You immediately be alert.] [What does this White Tiger elder intend to do?] [For a moment, you''re unsure of the situation.] [But soon, you understand.] [The White Tiger elder ces the sleeping Little White in your hands.] [Then it tells you about the current situation on the Demonic God Continent.] [And informs you that this cmity is not because of you.] [It says that even if you die, the White Tiger n cannot escape.] [This is driven by interests.] [After speaking, it punches through the void, throwing you, Little White, and several unconscious White Tiger Chosen into it.] [In the void, you can still hear the White Tiger elder''s words: "Young Friend, tell Little White and the others not to do anything foolish; hide and survive!"] [Through the void, you vaguely see the bloody battle of the White Tiger n.] [One White Tiger after another fights fiercely.] [Facing stronger and more numerous enemies, they have no words, only the will to kill!] [The Killing Intent seems to pierce the clouds and shatter the void.] [The originally unconscious Little White and the White Tiger Chosen gradually awaken.] ["Roar!" Little White lets out a mournful tiger roar.] [You see a blood-red glow emanating from Little White, and it breaks through at this moment.] [Then, Little White forcibly breaks through the void passage opened by the White Tiger elder and disappears into the void!] [All of this happens in an instant, and you have no time to stop it!] [Of course, even if Little White insists, you can''t stop it.] [After all, Little White has cultivated for thousands of years more than you, and after breaking through, it can rival Saint realm experts, far surpassing your strength.] [You can only shout urgently, "No, Little White,e back!"] [But it''s useless; Little White''s mind is made up.] [It only leaves you with one sentence: "If there''s a next life, we''ll still be family!"] [Then it disappears from your sight.] [You know it''s definitely rushing back to the White Tiger n.] [After Little White leaves, the other awakened White Tiger Chosen also burst forth, heading towards the White Tiger n.] [Not long after, you are the only one left in the void passage that Little White had broken through.] [At this moment, Little White''s words still echo in your ears: "We''ll still be family!"] [Finally, you curse under your breath, "Damn it! Being targeted by Dao-level, it''s death anyway, what''s the use of living a few more days!"] [Then you also rush out of the void passage, heading towards the White Tiger n.] [You want to save Little White, save the White Tiger n.] [You still have a trump card.] [You believe that if you can unleash the Peerless Strike, you might be able to save the White Tiger n.] [When you finally see the territory of the White Tiger n again, it''s already three dayster.] [Previously, you were in the void passage opened by the half-Dao level ancestor of the White Tiger n, seemingly not far from the White Tiger n, but the distance was actually quite far.] [So it took you three whole days to return.] [At this moment, the White Tiger n has already been stained with blood, and from a distance, you can see White Tiger corpses everywhere.] [However, the battle is not over yet.] [Seeing this, you think to yourself, "Little White, please be safe!"] [So, you quicken your pace again.] [In just a few seconds, you''ve reached the battlefield.] [At this moment, you see that there are only a few White Tigers left.] [And Little White, now covered in blood, still fights to the death without retreating.] [Seeing this, you rush to the center of the battlefield.] [You don''t avoid any attacks at all; you''re not afraid of life or death.] [Because you know that only on the brink of death can you trigger your trump card.] [And as you rush towards Little White, it also notices you.] [It seems to understand that you want to save it.] [It doesn''t know what trump card you have.] [Or whether you can really save it.] [But it is a White Tiger, born to fight; with its race in peril, it can only fight, even if it means fighting to the death, it will not Live by Hiding!] [Little White bares its fangs, nces at you, and murmurs, "If there''s a next life, we''ll still be family!"] [Then, you see Little White transform into a blood-colored giant sword, shing towards the sky.] [With Little White''s action, the remaining White Tiger n members follow suit.] [Instantly, several blood-colored giant swords merge into one, shing against the void.] ["Bang!" In the void, a half-Dao level expert falls.] [In its final moments, Little White, with its Saint realm strength, joins the White Tiger Chosen to reverse-y a half-Dao level expert!] [Unleashing its own Peerless Strike.] Chapter 218: Dont save me! [After the strike, the blood-colored longsword that Little White had transformed into also dissipated between heaven and earth.] "No!" Witnessing this scene, you let out a cry of grief and anger! You desperately tried to grasp the dissipating Little White, but it was all in vain. The invaders of the White Tiger n were indeed thrown into disarray when the half-Dao level expert was counter-shed by Little White. Now, seeing Little White''s demise, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Of course, your appearance also drew everyone''s attention. Soon, someone recognized you as a practitioner of the Divine Dao. Although their goal was to plunder resources, with you, a Divine Dao practitioner, presenting yourself, they didn''t mind killing you to gain favor with Dao-level experts. Instantly, you became the target of everyone''s hostility.However, overwhelmed by sadness, you seemed unaware of all this. At this moment, among the crowd, a man and a woman, both Chosen of the Golden Immortal realm, were whispering to each other. They were none other than Jiang Fushan and Su Mushuang. "Junior sister, are you afraid?" Jiang Fushan gently touched Su Mushuang''s face, seeming a bit reluctant. Su Mushuang just shook her head, showing little emotion on her face. "Junior sister, see you in the next life!" As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Fushan took a step forward and soared into the sky. Initially, no one paid much attention to Jiang Fushan''s sudden ascent. But then, Jiang Fushan shouted, "Whoever wants to kill my benefactor,e and fight!" Jiang Fushan''s words echoed throughout the White Tiger n''s territory. In an instant, all eyes were drawn to him. And Jiang Fushan''s voicepletely pulled you back to reality from your sorrow. "How could it be? How did hee here?" You truly never expected that your father, Jiang Fushan, who hadn''t even given birth to you yet, woulde to save you. The key point is, you could tell he was only at the Golden Immortal realm! You must know that the strong ones besieging the White Tiger n now included a bunch of Great Luo realm, Saint realm, and even half-Dao level experts. How dare he? A mere Golden Immortal, so audacious? It''s not just you; others were equally puzzled! In an instant, Jiang Fushan became the focus. And at this moment, Su Mushuang had already used a rare treasure to silently appear by your side. She directly shoved a stone-like object into your hand: "This is an innate treasure my senior brother and I found. It can deceive the senses of a half-Dao level expert for a short time. Run quickly!" You nced at Jiang Fushan in mid-air, then looked at Su Mushuang in front of you. You suddenly smiled! You shoved the so-called innate treasure back into Su Mushuang''s hand. Then you said, "Don''t save me; no matter when or where, stop him, don''t let him save me!" As soon as you finished speaking, you soared into the sky, came beside Jiang Fushan, grabbed him, and threw him in Su Mushuang''s direction. With a "puff!" sound, you shattered your own Qi Sea and obliterated your Primordial Spirit. Your one-time talent "Peerless Strike" was triggered, allowing you to unleash an attack far beyond your own strength within 30 seconds. Your life entered a 30-second countdown! 30 seconds remaining! At the same time, you shouted at Su Mushuang and Jiang Fushan, who hadn''t yetnded, "Remember what I said, if we meet again, no matter when or where, never save me again!" At this moment, you finally understood why your mother didn''t save you before. Perhaps your advice had taken effect! But even so, you had to say it. After all, you knew that if you didn''t say it, with your father''s nature, no matter how many times, he would still charge out to save you without hesitation. This had nothing to do with you being his son. It was destined the moment you saved him from a group of True Immortals. If you didn''t deliberately instruct him, perhaps the next time you cross-time simte, as long as he recognized you and knew you, he would stille to help you. This was not what you wanted. With Little White''s precedent. You didn''t want any more close ones to die because of your simtion. Your sudden self-sacrificing action left everyone stunned for a moment. But that was all. After all, in the eyes of others, even if you didn''t self-destruct, there was no way out for you. Life remaining: 25 seconds! Time was running out, and you had no intention of dying further. You looked up at the sky, gazing into the void. After activating the one-time talent "Peerless Strike," you could already see Little ck, the Gluttonous Beast, and two other Dao-level experts battling in the endless void. So, you changed your initial n. Since it was a strike exchanged with your life, you might as well test it on a Dao-level expert! You shouted, "Die!" Then your entire being transformed into a blood-colored longsword, shing toward the endless void. This move was almost identical to Little White''s previous outburst. Because you both used the Sword of Killing Intent. Previously, although your Sword of Killing Intent had been cultivated, it had never reached a high level. But at this moment, this Sword of Killing Intent was finally about to reveal its sharpness. As you unleashed this Peerless Strike. The entire world trembled. Countless chaos, voids, andnds cracked open! The intensity of this strike far exceeded your expectations. And the Dao-level expert you locked onto also felt a sense of dread. But it was toote! The Dao-level expert fell. And your life timer hit zero. You died! Simtion ended. You can choose two rewards from this simtion for exchange. Invincible Will (Talent), cultivation, simtion memory. Invincible Will (Talent): Priced at 1000 origin values. Cultivation: Priced at 6 million origin values. (Early stage of Six-star Ancient God realm,prehended numerousws, perfected Battle Techniques Silent Destruction Fist, perfected Sword of Killing Intent, etc.) Simtion Memory: Priced at 5 million origin values. (Exclusive reward for cross-time simtion, but also upies one exchange option.)N?v(el)B\\jnn Jiang Yifeng looked at the words "Simtion Ended." He hadn''t quite recovered yet. This cross-time simtion had too much information. He rubbed his forehead. First, he looked at the simtion rewards. This time, there were actually three simtion rewards. The first talent goes without saying, the Orange Talent is very useful, allowing the enhancement ofwprehension through battle. And cultivation, needless to say, the realm had been elevated by three levels. Moreover,ws and battle techniques had also been greatly enhanced. Originally, these two were must-choose. But the simtion memory, this reward was newly introduced. He was somewhat tempted. This was thousands of years of memory. It not only contained information not disyed in text by the simtor but also thousands of years ofbat experience. This made him a bit conflicted. Chapter 219: Reality: Arrange the "Time Acceleration" Formation After all, his currentbat experience was stillcking. If he could enhance hisbat experience through simted memories, it would significantly boost his strength in battles of the same realm. But should he give up his talent?N?v(el)B\\jnn No, this talent is like a hen thatys eggs. It can be used continuously, and giving it up would be a loss! Then should he give up his cultivation? But the power of three major realms, along withws, battle techniques, etc... Is it worth it just forbat experience?No, that''s not right! Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng''s eyes lit up. He had been thinking in the wrong direction. Shouldn''t memory include theprehension ofws? And with theprehension of the Law of Time, wouldn''t the Silent Destruction Fist be perfected? So, if he gives up his cultivation and chooses memory, he wouldn''t lose theprehension ofws. The only loss would be the cultivation of three realms and the Sword of Killing Intent. Considering this, it seems eptable. After all, although cultivation advancement takes time, with enough resources, it can be elerated. Like in this simtion, in the White Tiger n, with massive resources, he broke through once in just over three hundred years. In the end, he made his choice. "Choose Invincible Will (Talent) and Simted Memory!" [Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining Invincible Will (Talent), deducting 1000 origin values, remaining origin values.] [Ding, obtained Simted Memory, deducting 5 million origin values, remaining origin values.] As the simtor''s prompt sounded, Jiang Yifeng still felt nothing from acquiring the talent! He only felt countless simted memories flooding into his mind. The bits and pieces that weren''t disyed on the simtor became clearer and more vivid in the depths of his mind. Variousbat experiences also benefited him greatly. And as he received the memory of Little White Tiger''s death, two lines of tears involuntarily flowed down Jiang Yifeng''s cheeks. Several hours passed. Jiang Yifeng took a deep breath, preparing to summarize the intelligence from this simtion. In fact, the eptance of simted memories had long beenpleted. But the joys and sorrows of those thousands of years of memories, he could feel them deeply. During these hours, he was merely adjusting himself. This simtion provided a lot of information. He originally thought the White Tiger n was destroyed by the Immortal n. But this simtion revealed that it wasn''t. It was actually destroyed billions of years ago, because of himself. Yes, after epting the simted memories, Jiang Yifeng felt that all this was somewhat rted to him. If he hadn''t cultivated the Divine Dao, if he hadn''t simted back to three billion years ago, perhaps the White Tiger n wouldn''t have been destroyed. And finally, he seemed to have found the reason why his mother, Su Mushuang, didn''t save him in previous simtions. Perhaps it was really his advice in this simtion that worked. After all, in previous simtions, Su Mushuang indeed acted that way. No matter the situation, she didn''t save him, and even stopped his father Jiang Fushan from leaving the Southern Regions with him. Jiang Yifeng thought there was a high possibility of this. But he still didn''t dare to be sure. Because from this simtion, it could be seen that Su Mushuang was a proud person, could she really heed his advice? Of course, from this simtion''s performance, it could also be seen that Su Mushuang wasn''t a bad person, and she understood gratitude. So, the fact that she didn''t save her son is still open for discussion. Jiang Yifeng felt that his advice certainly had some effect. But there might be other reasons as well. In addition, in this simtion, there were a few points Jiang Yifeng was particrly concerned about. For example, Big Tiger and Ye Xiaoqing. What happened to them in the end? For example, Little ck. By the end of the simtion, it was still fighting against a Dao-level opponent. Did it die in the end? It shouldn''t have! After all, they say it''s immortal and indestructible. Although Jiang Yifeng felt that this immortality might be rtive, it was clear that a Dao-level powerhouse couldn''t kill Little ck. After all, it hadn''t been killed for so many years. So where is Little ck now? Billions of years have passed, is it still around? Of course, what troubled Jiang Yifeng the most was the Divine Dao''s causality. This simtion''s encirclement and attack were because of this thing. Although based on spection, it should be the ck-robed man from a previous simtion causing trouble. But who is this ck-robed man? Jiang Yifeng knew nothing. The known information is that this ck-robed man can traverse time and space at will. If encountered in a simtion, that''s fine. But if found in reality, what then? There''s no way! If he encounters the ck-robed man himself, with his current strength, Jiang Yifeng has no chance of resistance. At this moment, besides urgently wanting to improve his strength, Jiang Yifeng also wanted to know what the Divine Dao''s causality really was. He even directly asked the simtor. Unfortunately, he didn''t receive any hints. Forget it! Jiang Yifeng didn''t think about it further. In the following days, Jiang Yifeng began tinkering with a new formation in the Jiang Family Mansion, the "Time eleration Formation"! This formation originally didn''t help Jiang Yifeng much in thest simtion. But in reality, and in future simtions, Jiang Yifeng thought it would be useful. As long as he sets up this formation, he could let Little Peach and his father Jiang Fushan quickly advance to the Immortal Realm. Jiang Yifeng even thought it might not just be to the Immortal Realm. After all, he knew that his father Jiang Fushan and Little Peach were recovering their cultivation, perhaps not needing theprehension ofws. With the Time eleration Formation, it might directly restore them to their peak state. Once so, in future simtions or reality, he would have two strong allies. And ones he couldpletely trust. Therefore, Jiang Yifeng was very focused on this Time eleration Formation. After summarizing the simtion situation, he immediately began setting it up. In fact, this formation was also one of the reasons he chose Simted Memory. Time flowed like water, and in the blink of an eye, more than half a month passed. His Time eleration Formation was finallypleted. However, due to his limited strength, this formation could only elerate time by a maximum of ten times. That is, one day outside would be ten days inside the formation. And it could only cover an area asrge as a room. But it was enough. Jiang Yifeng first tested it himself. The formation consumed a lot of spirit stones. For this, he visited several branches of the Immortal Arrival Sect to collect some funds! Afterward, he called Little Peach and his father, exined the effects of the Time eleration Formation, and gave them the authority to enter and exit the formation. After doing all this, Jiang Yifeng found that the number of simtion attempts had umted to three again. He could perform another cross-time simtion. Without hesitation, Jiang Yifeng returned to his room and silently recited a phrase. "Begin cross-time simtion, lock onto three billion years ago, the same timeline asst time." Yes, he wanted to go back to the time of thest simtion again. Chapter 220: Cross-time simulation: One billion years ago! [Ding, reminder to the host: Past timelines that have already been simted cannot be repeated!] "Is that really the case?" Upon hearing that he couldn''t choose the same timeline asst time, Jiang Yifeng wasn''t particrly surprised. In fact, choosing the same timeline as the previous simtion was just a test for him. If it were possible, he would have the confidence to change the past, saving Little White and preventing the White Tiger n from being annihted. After all, it wouldn''t be too difficult to achieve. As long as he didn''t initially expose his Divine Dao cultivation; or even if he did, he could choose not to flee and simply sacrifice himself, the barriers between the continents wouldn''t be lifted, thus solving the problem! But now it seems, his idea is indeed unworkable. Jiang Yifeng had anticipated this.After all, if he could keep simting a certain past timeline repeatedly. Wouldn''t that mean he could continuously alter the past? That would be too defiant of the natural order. Moreover, he had considered that if he repeated the simtion of the same past timeline. It would mean cing two or even more of himself into one timeline, which is essentially a paradox. However, despite his thoughts, Jiang Yifeng argued with the simtor. "The simtor didn''t mention this rule when upgrading! Why can''t it be done?" The simtor seemed to fall silent immediately. ... After a long while, the simtor''s prompt sounded again! [Ding: The host''s strength is too low. If you insist on repeating thest timeline simtion, any consequences that arise will not be the responsibility of this simtor!] [Does the host wish to persist?] [Yes/No] "This..." Jiang Yifeng was rendered speechless by the simtor. To be honest, Jiang Yifeng really didn''t dare to persist. The simtor had already stated it wouldn''t take responsibility. Clearly, the consequences were severe. Moreover, Jiang Yifeng had a premonition that these consequences would directly affect reality. Otherwise, the simtor wouldn''t issue such a warning! However, from the simtor''s prompt. Jiang Yifeng also obtained important information, which is that the simtor can provide repeated timeline simtions. It''s just that his strength is insufficient. Given this, Jiang Yifeng thought that once he became stronger. He would definitely return to the previous simtion timeline to save Little White Tiger. However, Jiang Yifeng didn''t know how strong he needed to be for the simtor to consider his strength sufficient. If he truly became that powerful, would he already have other methods to save Little White Tiger? Jiang Yifeng didn''t dwell on it further. Instead, he casually mentioned a second timeline. "Then choose a billion years ago for a cross-time simtion!" His thought was, since thest timeline couldn''t be repeated. Then it was also impossible to go to a timeline after thest simtion. After all, in thest simtion, there was arge-scale massacre of Divine Dao cultivators. Although he died in thest simtion. Who knows if the operation to eliminate Divine Dao cultivators waspletely concluded? If he went to a time after that, he might still be hunted! Given his current strength in reality, to be safe, he chose a timeline from a billion years ago. As for what was there a billion years ago? He didn''t know. Nor did he care! The purpose of this simtion was simply to survive longer and enhance his strength further. As Jiang Yifeng confirmed the timeline for the cross-time simtion once more. The simtor''s prompt sounded. [Ding, starting cross-time simtion, consuming 3 simtion attempts, remaining attempts 0!] [Targeting: A billion years ago!] [Randomly selecting target...] [Ding: Identity acquired as a member of the hunting team in the "Azure Flood Dragon Tribe"; Jiang Erman.] [Azure Flood Dragon Tribe: An ordinary small tribe from ancient times.] "Hmm? Ancient times?" Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng''s eyes lit up. This was excellent. ording to previous simtions. The ancient times seemed to be when the Divine Dao was prevalent. So cultivating the Divine Dao during this period wouldn''t seem out of ce! The safety factor skyrocketed. [Ding, would you like to spend 1000 origin values to randomly draw a talent?] "Yes!" [Talent drawing in progress, deducting 1000 origin values, remaining origin values.] [Ding: Congrattions to the host for acquiring the Orange Talent: Chaotic Heavy Pupils!] [Chaotic Heavy Pupils]: You can see through personal information, ws, advantages, etc., below the Dao-level (including Dao-level)! (Note: This is a supportive talent with no offensive effect; simr to a super-enhanced version of the Eye of Insight.) [Acquired one-time talent: Inclined to Teach!] [Inclined to Teach]: When you teach others, you have the opportunity to receive special rewards; the stronger the people you teach be, the more generous the rewards you receive. (Passive talent!) Looking at the talents this time, Jiang Yifeng felt a bit odd. Especially the one-time talent. It actually required him to be a teacher. However, he didn''t think too much about it. Oh well, since it''s here, he might as well make the best of it! If there''s a chance, he could give it a try. See if the results are good. [Talent Pool: ...] "No!" [The 32nd simtion begins!] [On the first day, you arrive at the bottom of a cliff.] [After a brief moment of confusion, you realize you''ve entered the simtion.] [Soon, the original host''s memories flood into your mind.] [Instantly, you know that the original host identally fell off this cliff while hunting with the hunting team.] [If not for your simtion, the original host would have already died by now!] [As for other matters?] [ording to the original host''s memories, he was a member of the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe''s hunting team, cultivating Martial Dao with only Condensing Core Realm strength.] [The Azure Flood Dragon Tribe was named so because they were initially protected by an Azure Flood Dragon, which allowed them to survive.] [Yes, survive!] [ording to the original host''s memories, the rulers of this world don''t seem to be humans, but fierce beasts!] [Of course, this is just the original host''s subjective belief!] [You think it might not be the case!] [After all, youe from the future, you know that during ancient times, the Divine Dao was rampant, how could humans be weak!] [You think it might be because the original host never left the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe.] [Because, in the original host''s memories, there was only the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe, endless mountains, and fierce beasts.] [After discovering that the original host''s memories didn''t contain much useful information, you didn''t continue to recall.] [Instead, you began to examine your own condition.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [You wouldn''t have known if you hadn''t checked, but upon checking, you realized how dire your current situation was.] [At this moment, you are covered in blood, with internal organs severely damaged and multiple bones shattered!] [Such injuries wouldn''t be much of a concern if you had your original cultivation.] [But now, you don''t have your original cultivation.] [Because in this cross-time simtion, just likest time, your cultivation is not at its peak state, but is restricted by multiple seals.] [Clearly, it will take some time to fully recover.] Chapter 221: Azure Flood Dragon Tribe, simple-hearted tribespeople [Right now, your cultivation level is the same as the original host''s.] [It''s merely at the Condensing Core Realm of Martial Dao.] [Such a level of cultivation is really too weak.] [It''s quite troublesome!] [After all, from the original host''s memories, you know that this mountain is not safe, with many fierce beasts around.] [In your current state, with such injuries, it''s hard to exert any strength.] [However, at this moment, the Yimu Divine Body, which you had somewhat forgotten, begins to take effect.] [The injuries on your body start to heal themselves continuously.] [The shattered bones are also slowly mending.][This lets you breathe a sigh of relief.] [Unknowingly, two hours pass.] ["Er Man!" You suddenly hear someone calling the original host''s name.] [Soon, more than ten burly men dressed in animal skins appear before you.] ["Er Man, are you alright?"] [A middle-aged man, seeing you covered in blood, quickly squats down to check your injuries.] [From the original host''s memories, you know this person is Jiang Daniu, the captain of the hunting team from the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe, whom everyone calls Uncle Niu!] ["It''s nothing, Uncle Niu!" you naturally reply.] [At this moment, your injuries are indeed no longer serious.] [After all, these are low-level injuries.] [Two hours have passed, and although the Yimu Divine Body hasn''t fully healed you, it has restored you by seventy to eighty percent.] [Now, you appear to have only minor injuries.] [After inspecting your injuries, Jiang Daniu also breathes a sigh of relief.] [He praises your luck and fortune!] [Falling from such a high cliff, you only got a few scratches.] [Afterward, you follow Jiang Daniu and the hunting team back to the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe.] [The Azure Flood Dragon Tribe, though called a tribe, might be more urately described as a small vige.] [Because there are too few people here.] [Men, women, and children together number less than a hundred!] [It''s worth mentioning that everyone here has the surname Jiang.] [As for the reason?] [They say the Azure Flood Dragon that saved them lives in the nearby river.] [Tomemorate the Azure Flood Dragon''s kindness, everyone in the tribe takes the surname Jiang.] [As your group approaches the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe, you see countless women and children already waiting at the entrance.] [Their faces, once filled with worry, instantly turn to joy upon seeing the hunting team.] [The safe return of the hunting team is the happiest moment for the entire tribe!] [It not only signifies the safety of the team members but also the possibility of bringing back abundant food.] [In this era, food is extremely scarce.] [Especially in a small settlement like the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe.] [However, when your hunting team returns empty-handed, the joyful faces of the tribe members show a trace of worry.] [Yet, no one voices anyints.] [Only a few hungry and thin children, full of confusion, ask the adults, "Dad, Mom, I''m hungry; didn''t you say the hunting team would bring back food?"] [Such words reach Uncle Niu''s ears, making him feel guilty, and he is about to turn back to continue hunting.] ["Daniu, it''s toote, rest for a few days before going again!"] ["The tribe still has some reserves; if everyone eats a little less, we can hold out for a while!"] [Finally, the tribe leader, Jiang Changshou, speaks up, stopping the impulsive Uncle Niu.] [And you merely observe all of this.] [At this moment, you need to learn more about this world and aren''t suited to say much.] [That night, you have your first meal in this world.] [Well? It''s considered a meal!] [Nearly a hundred people share a pot of soup, with about two pounds of meat in it.] [Most people only get to drink some broth with a hint of meat vor!] [No, actually, even the meat vor is scarce.] [As a patient, you are given half a pound of meat separately.] [You initially refuse.] [But everyone looks at you with eager eyes, saying you''re an injured member of the hunting team, and it''s necessary.] [Because all the food is earned with your lives.] [In the end, you eat the half pound of nd boiled beast meat alone.] [You''re not greedy for that bit of meat.] [The meat, boiled like that, has long lost its vor.] [What''s there to be greedy about!]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [You just don''t want to break their tradition.] [After all, they''re right; the hunting team risks their lives, and getting some special care when injured is deserved!] [Although you''re taking credit for the original host''s work, you can make up for itter.] [The remaining pound and a half of nd beast meat is left for the children.] [Such a life is quite bitter.] [In the blink of an eye, three days pass.] [The hunting team sets out again to hunt in the mountains!] [And you?] [Due to your previous injuries, they think you haven''t recovered.] [So they don''t call you along.] [To this, you smile wryly!] [Who are they underestimating?] [You''ve long since recovered from those injuries!] [In fact, this morning, another seal within you was lifted.] [Now you''ve regained the strength of the Core Formation stage and Qi Motion Realm,] [You''ve been eating and drinking here for free for a few days, and now that your strength has recovered somewhat,] [You think it''s just right to lend a small hand.] [So, without hesitation, you track the hunting team''s trail.] [After all, you''ve noticed that the strongest person in this tribe is Jiang Daniu.] [And Jiang Daniu''s strength, his Martial Dao cultivation, is only at the peak of the Qi Motion Realm.] [With such strength, you could defeat him with one hand now.] [After all, even if your current cultivation is simr to his,] [The battle techniques andbat experience you gained from yourst simtion are iparable to Jiang Daniu''s.] [This is where the benefits of choosing to simte memoriesst timee into y.] [Five dayster.] [Jiang Daniu and his team encounter a Blood Horned Bull.] [Observing from afar, you find that the Blood Horned Bull only has the strength of the Foundation Establishment stage.] [Uncle Niu can handle it, so you don''t intervene.] [Instead, you continue to hide in the shadows.] [By the tenth day, the hunting team has sessfully hunted three fierce beasts of the Foundation Establishment stage.] [Each of their faces shows joy.] [They didn''t expect this hunt to be so smooth.] [But soon, everyone''s expressions change.] [Because a massive Scarlet Blood Python blocks their path.] [The strength of this Scarlet Blood Python far surpasses Jiang Daniu and his team.] [It has roughly the cultivation of a newly entered Spirit Transformation Realm.] [At this moment, Jiang Daniu is full of vignce.] [He''s already prepared to use his life to entangle the Scarlet Blood Python, allowing the others to escape.] [But just as Jiang Daniu is about to risk his life,] [You suddenly appear in front of the Scarlet Blood Python!] [You execute the perfected Silent Destruction Fist, striking at the seven-inch spot of the Scarlet Blood Python.] ["Boom," the Spirit Transformation Realm Scarlet Blood Python is instantly split into two.] [Dead beyond dead!] Chapter 223: Peach with extraordinary talent! [Right now, not only are the children learning cultivation from you, but even many adults areing to seek your guidance.] [There''s no other way; the results of your teaching are just too impressive.] [A year ago, the nine-year-old Man Niu and Er Bao could barely fight, but after a year of learning from you, they can now defeat ordinary members of the hunting team.] [After this, your teaching ability gained widespread recognition.] [Your status in the tribe has risen significantly!] [Except for the highly respected old chieftain.] [You have be the most esteemed person in the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe.] [After all, you''re strong and can hunt a lot of food.] [And you can train others to be strong as well.][As long as you train more powerful people, the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe will be able to hunt more food in the future.] [Just based on these two points, you''re like a savior in the backward Azure Flood Dragon Tribe.] [One day, while you were teaching the children how to cultivate, you noticed a small head peeking from afar.] [You looked up and saw a little girl.] [She seemed to be only seven or eight years old.] [You instinctively used your Chaos Heavy Pupil on her.] [Peach: Eleven years old, mortal body, Divine Spiritual Root; suitable for cultivating the Immortal Dao and Divine Dao; special talent: grows stronger when facing stronger opponents; trait: loyal and protective of her master.] (Note: The Divine Spiritual Root is a level above the Heavenly Spiritual Root!) [Summary: A talent defying the heavens, extremely powerful inbat; but with a congenital mortal body, weak and sickly!] ["WTF!" you eximed in shock.] [Divine Spiritual Root? What is that?] [You know that your Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root is already an Orange Talent.] [And this Divine Spiritual Root is above the Heavenly Spiritual Root, surely a Red Talent!] [A Red Talent in cultivation, no less.] [A terrifying talent.] [Not only that, this girl even has a special talent.] [Grows stronger when facing stronger opponents, clearly abat-rted talent.] [Damn it, she''s like the child of the Heavenly Dao!] [No, the daughter of the Heavenly Dao.] [But now that you''ve encountered her, you must take her in and teach her well.] [After all, you have a talent for teaching.] [Teaching someone like the daughter of the Heavenly Dao should bring quite a few rewards.] [Moreover, you noticed that Peach has a trait of being loyal and protective of her master.] [This means that as long as you build a good rtionship with her and be her master, she won''t betray you.] [She''s the perfect disciple.] [Thinking of this, you instantly appeared beside Peach.] [You asked her where she came from.] [That''s right, you didn''t directly express your desire to take her as a disciple.] [After all, you hadn''t seen this child before.] [So it''s necessary to ask about her background first.] [Peach timidly said that she was from the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe.] [It''s just that she''s not in good health and rarely appears in public.] [She said she had secretly seen you from her room.] [She knows you''re the great hero of the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe.] [In just a few words, Peach was already out of breath and coughing continuously.] [At this moment, you instantly understood the summary about Peach: congenital mortal body, weak and sickly.] [It seems that although Peach''s talent is strong, her mortal body,bined with the poor environment of the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe, where there''s not enough food or clothing, makes her very frail.] ?? [And just then, you saw the captain of the hunting team, Jiang Daniu, running over.] [As he ran, he shouted, "Peach, Peach, why did you run out? Quick, go back home and lie down!"] [From his words, you could hear the obvious concern.] [Not long after, through your inquiries, you learned that Peach is actually Jiang Daniu''s daughter.] [ording to Jiang Daniu, it''s not just Peach; several other little girls also have poor health.] [In the past, there wasn''t much food in the tribe.] [It was always prioritized for the boys.] [Because every boy in the tribe is a future reserve for the hunting team, a hope!] [So the girls rarely had enough to eat, which also led to poor health among the girls in the tribe!] [Now Peach can walk around a bit because you''ve hunted a lot of food in the past two years.] [The tribe now has extra food, allowing the children to eat more.] [Their health has improved a bit.] [At this point, Jiang Daniu''s gratitude towards you was evident.] [He even wanted to kneel and bow to you on the spot.] [Fortunately, you stopped him in time.] [Regarding the issue Jiang Daniu mentioned, you had actually noticed it before.] [After all, you''ve been in this tribe for so long, and you hadn''t seen any girls.] [Originally, you didn''t pay much attention, thinking it was just a coincidence that this batch of kids were all boys.] [But you didn''t expect that it was because the girls were too frail to go outside.] [This also mes the original host for being a bit of a fool, with no memory of this aspect.] [Later, you told Jiang Daniu that Peach has great talent, and you want to teach her cultivation.] [Jiang Daniu, being a traditional tribal person.] [He felt your idea was unreliable.] [How could a girl cultivate?] [Does that mean you want girls to hunt in the future?] [What kind of nonsense is that?] [His mindset was also the consensus of everyone in the tribe.] [So, Jiang Daniu thought you might have some other intentions under the guise of teaching his daughter Peach.] [However, Jiang Daniu didn''t oppose it.] [Having intentions is good!] [You''re now the great hero of the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe, and many young women have their eyes on you.] [He didn''t expect you to take a liking to his daughter Peach.] [He looked at his frail daughter, then at you.] [His mind started to wander.] [At this moment, he was already thinking about what to name the child between you and Peach.] ["Uncle Daniu? What do you think? I just checked, Peach''s talent is really good. With some guidance, she will definitely be as strong as the boys, if not stronger!"] [It was your timely words that brought Jiang Daniu''s drifting thoughts back.] ["Alright, alright, I''ll leave Peach to you."] [Jiang Daniu agreed repeatedly.] [You also showed a satisfied smile.] [But at night, when you returned home, you couldn''t smile anymore.] ["Uncle Daniu, what''s going on?"] ["Why did you move all of Peach''s clothes, mats, and daily necessities to my house?"] [You watched as Uncle Daniu kept moving various items into your straw hut, and you asked with a head full of ck lines.] ["Er Man, we agreed during the day, I left Peach to you; you''re not going to back out, are you?"] ["Let me tell you, many tribesmen saw it at the time, and I''ve reported it to the chieftain."] ["My daughter Peach is yours now; it''s toote to regret it!"] [After Jiang Daniu''s series of words.] [You''re not a fool; you instantly realized there was a misunderstanding from the day''s events.] [You hurriedly wanted to exin.] [But when you saw Peach''s frail appearance.] ["Forget it, at worst, I''ll just take her as a maid!"] [After all, this girl''s talent is so good.] [If she stays in Uncle Daniu''s house, always hungry and frail, she won''t be able to cultivate, and her talent will be wasted.] Chapter 223: Peach with extraordinary talent!

"Eh? A maid? Peach? Little Peach?" Suddenly, you thought of Little Peach, and something felt off. "Could this be Little Peach''s past life?" This idea popped into your mind. Soon, you shook your head, thinking it was unlikely. You clearly remembered that during the previous simtion, even when Little Peach erupted with power, she only disyed the Saint realm of the Immortal Dao. And now, you n to teach Peach the Divine Dao. The systems differ once you reach the Immortal realm. Unless Peach eventually abandons the Divine Dao? But is that possible?You think it''s unlikely, after all, you intend to use her to cultivate the talent "Good Teacher." From the start, you nned to train her in the Divine Dao. Moreover, even if Peach ultimately only cultivates the Immortal Dao. If Peach is Little Peach, then the cultivation speed of Little Peach in the previous simtion doesn''t quite match up. You remember that Little Peach''s cultivation speed was slower than your father, Jiang Fushan. If Peach is Little Peach, with her Divine Spiritual Root talent, and being older than your father, her final strength should be greater. Therefore, her recovery speed shouldn''t be slower than your father Jiang Fushan. Of course, this conclusion holds only if there are no unexpected events. In the end, you didn''t dwell on it. You think whether Peach is Little Peach remains a question mark. You''ll have to observe further to find out! The seed of doubt has been nted in your heart. That night, Peach stayed at your house. Fortunately, in recent years, your status in the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe has risen quickly. Your home was renovated and expanded with the help of the tribe; it has more than one room. Thus, you sessfully avoided the risk of having half your bed upied. In the days that followed, besides teaching the children to cultivate every day, You also took on the task of helping Peach recuperate. Her body was too weak to start cultivating directly.N?v(el)B\\jnn But this was no challenge for you. Not to mention your strength, you''re also a sixth-grade Immortal Pill Master, adjusting a normal person''s body is not too difficult. For this, you often left the tribe to find somemon elixirs and mild fierce beast meat. You refined arge number of rtively mild pills. Besides having Peach take them daily, you sent the extras to the old chieftain. Let him distribute them to those in the tribe with weaker bodies. Especially the other young girls. These are your future targets for cultivating "Good Teacher." Everyone must get better. Three months passed in the blink of an eye. Peach''splexion visibly became rosy. Her body, once skin and bones, now had curves. Though still young, it was clear she would grow into a beauty. And besides Peach! Now in the tribe, you could often hear theughter of other young girls. Indeed, those other girls, like Peach, who had long suffered from malnutrition, were gradually getting better. This also led to a few more children joining those you taught. At this time, besides the asional adult seeking advice, you regrly taught fifteen children. Eight boys and seven girls! Five years passed in the blink of an eye. Everyone in the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe stood at the entrance, gazing into the distance. Their expressions were filled with worry. Even Jiang Daniu and the regr hunting team members from the original Azure Flood Dragon Tribe hunting team were among them. However,pared to others in the tribe, they seemed a bit moreposed. "Husband, will the children be alright? Why haven''t they returned after a whole day?" Many women anxiously asked their husbands. "Don''t worry, the children will surely return safely. "These kids have been learning from Er Man for so many years, even I can''t beat them now!" "Even if you don''t trust the children, you should trust Er Man! Er Man personally went hunting with the kids!" And the men beside them mostly answered in this way! And it worked. Knowing you went hunting with the children, most women felt much more at ease! After all, your strength over the years was evident to all. At that moment, someone with sharp eyes pointed into the distance and shouted. "Look, everyone, the children are back!" "Wow, look, the kids are carrying prey on their backs!" Immediately, all eyes turned to you. Many even wept with joy, murmuring, "The children have grown up, they can hunt on their own now..." You had long observed the reactions of the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe from afar. You felt helpless, having already recovered to the Two-Star Ancient God realm. Taking these youths to hunt ordinary fierce beasts nearby, what could go wrong? Not to mention your current cultivation. Even these young boys and girls could easily handle the fierce beasts around the tribe! After all, how strong could the fierce beasts wandering around the tribe without attacking it be? Now, these young boys and girls all had at least Perfect Foundation Establishment in the Immortal Dao, plus Condensing Core Realm in Martial Dao. This was not much weaker than Jiang Daniu back then. Some with good talent and strongbat skills were even stronger than Jiang Daniu was. After returning to the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe, there was another celebration that night. The next day, you got up early and went to the ce where you taught the children. At this time, these children? No, they should be called youths, were already waiting there early. Looking at the young boys and girls, you felt a bit emotional. Unknowingly, several years had passed. The children who were once eight or nine years old had be fifteen or sixteen-year-olds. "Congrattions, yesterday''s hunt, you all performed excellently, you have graduated!" After a long silence, you said the first words to these young boys and girls. Before they could speak, you continued, "I''ve taught you all I can, how you choose to proceed is up to you!" Chapter 225: Farewell! [Although these children are still at the Foundation Establishment stage, still honing their Golden Cores, none have truly stepped into the Divine Dao.] [But there''s nothing more you can teach them.] [How they proceed in the future depends entirely on their own choices.] [Will they patiently refine their Golden Cores, seek opportunities to break through to the twelfth-grade Golden Core, and pursue the Divine Dao?] [Or will they abandon the Divine Dao and choose between the Immortal Dao and Martial Dao?] [The choice is in their own hands.] [After all, you can''t help everyone find the opportunity to break through to the Divine Dao.] [Your words left the young boys and girls puzzled!] [But you didn''t exin further, simply saying to disband and that they need note to you for lessons anymore.][Then, you stepped away.] [It''s worth mentioning that your "Eager to Teach" talent hasn''t given you any rewards yet.] [You think perhaps it will settle once these "disciples" grow a bit more.] [You''re not in a hurry about this!] [After parting ways with those youngsters, you continued visiting acquaintances in the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe.] [You didn''t miss a single household, stopping to chat with each one.] [Today, you seemed particrly leisurely and unusual.] [Most people didn''t notice your unusual behavior.] [But there was one exception.] [In the evening, when you returned home, you found Peach squatting at your door, her face full of tears.] [You hadn''t even spoken yet.] [She was already looking at you, sobbing softly, "Young Master, are you leaving? Are you abandoning me?"] [Hearing Peach''s voice and seeing her crying, you felt a pang of sadness in your heart.] [Originally, you nned to quietly say goodbye to everyone and leave without a trace.] [Who knew this clever girl would find out!] [What should you do now?] [How should you deceive her?] [Yes, you only thought about how to deceive her.] [You had no intention of taking her with you.]n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [After all, you don''t know what the situation is like in the outside world of this ancient continent.] [Your strength can''t guarantee absolute safety.] [Bringing Peach along might actually endanger her!] [In fact, you initially considered staying in the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe to cultivate.] [But after much thought, you still felt the need to go out and see the world.] [Not only out of curiosity about ancient times, but also because there are no resources nearby the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe for you to cultivate.] [Over the years, the seals on you have mostly been lifted.] [Before long, you''ll be able to fully restore your cultivation and continue to improve.] [You need to prepare for future cultivation.] [After a long silence, you gently patted Peach''s hair and softlyforted her, "How could anyone abandon someone as lovely as Peach? I have important matters to attend to!"] ? [In saying this, you weren''t exactly lying to Peach.] [You do have important matters, like enhancing your strength and seeking resources, which surely count as important matters, right?] [Hearing your words, Peach''s face turned red, and the sadness in her heart seemed to lessen a bit; she then asked, "Then, Young Master, will we meet again?"] [Hearing this question, you suddenly felt a pang of guilt!] [Will you meet again?] [This farewell might truly be thest.] [After all, you can''t be sure how long you''ll be able to simte.] [Once the simtion ends!] [In this ancient era, you certainly won''t meet again.] [However, you couldn''t possibly tell Peach that.] [You painted a hopeful picture for her, saying, "Of course, as long as your cultivation is strong enough, we will meet again!"] [The next day, at dawn, you finally coaxed Peach to sleep.] [After she fell asleep, you gently caressed her face and whispered, "If you truly are Little Peach, we will definitely meet again!"] ["If not, then I wish you well! Until we meet again, if fate allows!"] [With those words, you vanished from the room, leaving the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe alone.] [Only, you didn''t notice that after you whispered those words, even in her sleep, Peach shed two lines of tears.] [Perhaps she heard your voice in her dreams!] [Time passed, and half a month flew by.] [Now, you find yourself by a great river.] [This is a ce you once observed from afar while helping the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe hunt.] [Only, you never came this close before.] [Because, ording to the people of the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe, this is where the Azure Flood Dragon that protects their tribe resides.] [Approaching this ce would be seen as disrespectful!] [Previously, while you were in the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe, it was naturally inappropriate to go against the tribe''s rules.] [But now, you''re here.] [Of course, you''re not here to cause trouble.] [It''s just that the situation outside is unclear, and no one in the tribe knows.] [This Azure Flood Dragon could serve as a breakthrough point.] [After all, ording to the tribe''s legends, this Azure Flood Dragon is a protector.] [It should be a benevolent creature.] [Communicating with it might reveal some information about this ancient era.] [Of course, you didn''t act recklessly.] [You didn''t directly call out to the Azure Flood Dragon or enter the water.] [Instead, you stood by the great river, continuously waving your hands, inscribing formation talismans.] [You wanted to leave yourself a backup n.] [What if the information passed down by the tribe was wrong?] [What if the Azure Flood Dragon was malevolent?] [You couldn''t be too careful!] [Currently, your strength is only at the Two-Star Ancient God realm, but your Formation Dao is that of a Sixth-grade Immortal Formation Master.] [Plus, you have the talent of the Mortal Domain.] [With preparation, even if the Azure Flood Dragon is malevolent, you have confidence in escaping and counterattacking.] [After all, it can''t be that unlucky to encounter a Great Principal Golden Immortal level expert right from the start, right?] [Several dayster, you looked at the killing formation you had set up and nodded in satisfaction.] [Now it''s secure.] [If the Azure Flood Dragon is malevolent.] [Then you can activate the Mortal Domain, bringing it down to the Mortal realm together.] [Then lure it into the formation.] [This formation was specially modified to work with the Mortal Domain.] [It doesn''t require spiritual energy or primordial energy; it activates as soon as the formation core is touched.] [Perfect!] [After finishing everything, you began to softly call out to the Azure Flood Dragon by the great river!] ["Azure Flood Dragon King? Dragon King?"] [These are the respectful titles the tribe uses for the Azure Flood Dragon, so you called it the same.] [Unfortunately, there was no response.] [After a long time, you felt a bit annoyed and shouted again, "Long Worm, Big Snake; hurry up ande out for your grandpa!"] [¡­¡­] [Your bluffing strategy didn''t seem to work either.] ["Could it be not at home? Or did something happen?"] [You thought to yourself.] [After all, you called it Long Worm and Big Snake.] [Regardless of whether it''s good or bad, it probably can''t stand it, right!] [After simting for so many years, you know that a flood dragon is close to transforming into a dragon, and they hate being called snakes or long worms the most!] [After much hesitation, you took a deep breath and stepped directly into the great river.] [You wanted to go underwater to check the situation.] Chapter 226: The Azure Flood Dragon is actually the Azure Dragon! [You dive deeper into the river!] [Hundreds of meters, thousands of meters, tens of thousands of meters...] [As you dive deeper and deeper, you find it somewhat unbelievable!] [You''ve already descended hundreds of thousands of meters, haven''t you?] [And yet, you still haven''t reached the bottom!] [Is this what rivers were like in ancient times?] [It''s truly unimaginable.] [As you go deeper into the water, you be increasingly cautious!] [After all, the deeper the water, the more likely you are to encounter powerful fierce beasts.][However, your worries are unnecessary.] [This is the territory of the Azure Flood Dragon, and no other water beasts linger here.] [A few minutester, you reach the bottom without any danger.] [You clearly see a massive dragon pce structure at the bottom.] [Could this be the Azure Flood Dragon''s pce?] [You gradually approach, softly calling out, "Azure Flood Dragon King."] [But there''s still no response.] [Finally, you decide to step into the underwater dragon pce.] ["Creak!" You push open the dragon pce door without any hindrance.] [Contrary to the grandeur outside, the scene inside the pce is filled with silence and destion!] [Not a single figure is in sight!] [You continue to venture deeper.] [After a long while, you finally hear a faint sound.] [You cautiously move toward the source of the sound.] ["Roar!" Suddenly, you hear a dragon roar.] [You see an azure giant dragon not far from you.] [It is curled up, seemingly in pain.] [You instinctively call out softly, "Azure Dragon?"] [You never expected that in your search for the Azure Flood Dragon, you would encounter the Azure Dragon!] [You wonder if the Azure Flood Dragon has sessfully transformed into a dragon.] ["You say I''m a dragon? Am I really considered a dragon?"] [Your soft call did not escape the Azure Dragon''s ears.] [It asks you incredulously.] [It seems to want your confirmation.] [The Azure Dragon''s reaction leaves you puzzled!] [But you still instinctively ask, "You''re not a dragon? Then what are you?"] ["What am I? What am I? I don''t know either! But they all say I''m not a true dragon!"] ["Roar!" A mournful dragon roar echoes.] [The Azure Dragon''s body stretches out.] [You witness a terrifying sight!] [You notice that more than half of the azure scales on the Azure Dragon''s body have been removed.] [No wonder it was curled up before, asionally showing signs of pain.] [Then, the Azure Dragon speaks again, "True dragons have golden scales, but me? I''m azure, I''m... I''m not a true dragon!"] [The words of the Azure Dragon reveal a strong sense of sorrow.] [And you sense something amiss.] [It seems there''s a dramatic story here!] [Could it be that there are no Azure Dragons in this world?] [So, the Azure Dragon was ostracized?] [Is that why it feels resentment? Destion?] [You''re even wondering now if the Azure Dragon might actually be the Azure Flood Dragon.] [But because there are no azure dragons in this world, its origin is considered an anomaly, so others call it a flood dragon?] [Even it doesn''t consider itself a dragon?] [The more you think about it, the more usible it seems!] [As a transmigrator from the 21st century, you feel the need to enlighten the Azure Dragon.] [You slowly speak, "Camel head, deer antlers, snake body, fish scales, tiger mouth, eagle ws, ox ears, lion nose, goldfish tail; you possess all the features that symbolize a dragon, why wouldn''t you be considered a dragon?"] R ["But, but I don''t have golden scales!"] ["Who said dragons must have golden scales?"] ["But the Ancestral Dragon said only those like it, with golden scales, are true dragons; those like me with azure scales, and others with different colored scales, are called anomalies."] [Upon hearing the Azure Dragon''s words, you understand.] [Indeed! It''s a ssic tale of racial ethics.] [Clearly, the Ancestral Dragon is an old stubborn one.] [It only acknowledges the status of golden dragons, and all other colored dragons are ostracized.] [The Azure Dragon is evidently one of them.] [At this moment, you look at the Azure Dragon with nearly half of its azure scales removed!] [You can already imagine that this was done by the Azure Dragon itself.] [It hates its azure scales, hoping to gain recognition from its kin and the Ancestral Dragon.] [But clearly, this approach is futile!] [This is the Azure Dragon, the leader of the four sacred beasts in legends; far more powerful than ordinary golden dragons; who would have thought it would be ostracized in this world!] [Thinking of this, you can''t help but say, "Why seek its recognition? As long as you''re strong enough, if you say you''re a dragon, the Ancestral Dragon wouldn''t dare deny it!"] [Your words seem to give the Azure Dragon a new perspective.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [Instantly, it falls silent.] [It had never considered surpassing the Ancestral Dragon one day.] [If it truly surpasses the Ancestral Dragon in strength, would it then be recognized by its kin?] [Perhaps it''s really possible!] [After all, it knows that this world still respects strength above all.] [After a long time, the Azure Dragon seems to have figured it out and solemnly says to you, "Thank you!"] [Through a brief exchange, you gain the friendship of the Azure Dragon.] [Afterward, you begin to inquire about the Azure Flood Dragon.] [You''re still not sure if the Azure Flood Dragon is the Azure Dragon!] [Finally, you receive a definite answer.] [The Azure Dragon is indeed the Azure Flood Dragon.] [However, it''s not that the people of the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe mistook it for a flood dragon!] [But rather, its dragon identity is not recognized by the Dragon n, so it calls itself a flood dragon to the outside world.] [Afterward, you ask many questions.] [Such as the situation beyond the Endless Mountains.] [Where there are human settlements, and so on!] [Unfortunately, the Azure Dragon says: Since it was ostracized by its race and expelled from the Dragon n, it has been hiding in the river within the mountains.] [So it knows nothing about the world beyond the Endless Mountains.] [It only knows that the Endless Mountains are vast, with many small settlements like the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe.] [But it doesn''t know aboutrge human settlements either.] [However, there is good news, which is that the Azure Dragon knows many dangerous ces within the Endless Mountains.] [It informs you of all these locations.] [After obtaining the information you need, you don''t linger.] [Instead, you say to the Azure Dragon, "You are a dragon, a one-of-a-kind Azure Dragon, I look forward to hearing your legend!"] [Then you bid farewell and leave.] [Unbeknownst to you, after you leave, the Azure Dragon holds out a dragon egg; softly murmuring, "Child, did you hear? We are dragons, someone acknowledged us as dragons!"] [Afterward, the Azure Dragon performs a series of spells on the dragon egg.] [Then it murmurs, "Child, wait a little longer, wait until I make everyone acknowledge our identity as Azure Dragons, then be born!"] Chapter 227: Good Teacher Reward Distribution In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this. He thought of a possibility! Could this dragon egg be the one from the Desert of Death? The Azure Dragon egg that hasn''t hatched in a billion years? In the end, Jiang Yifeng shook his head. There was no effective evidence to prove this guess. After all, how could there be a dragon egg that hasn''t hatched in a billion years? Moreover, from the Azure Dragon''s tone, it seemed that as long as it seeded, the dragon egg would hatch. So, whether it seeded or not, the probability that the dragon egg mentioned in the simtion was the one from the Desert of Death was quite low.After all, if the Azure Dragon had seeded, the dragon egg would have hatched long ago. If the Azure Dragon had failed. Then its dragon egg shouldn''t have appeared in the Desert of Death. After all, there''s a Dragon Tomb beneath the Desert of Death. Clearly, that dragon egg belongs to the Dragon n. If the Azure Dragon failed, how could its egg appear with the Dragon n? After all, it was ostracized from the Dragon n. The issue with the dragon egg is just like whether Peach is Little Peach. He felt there was a possibility, but it wasn''t very likely! He''d have to see if anything happenedter!N?v(el)B\\jnn Quickly, Jiang Yifeng put away his wild thoughts. He continued to look at the simtor. [After leaving the Azure Dragon''s dragon pce in the river, you began to wander in the Endless Mountains.] [You kept collecting various wild resources.] [It must be said, the resources in these mountains were quite abundant.] [After distancing yourself from the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe and the gathering ces of people, you could find one or two stalks of elixir every three to five days.] ? [This made you feel that these mountains were a treasure trove.] [The people in these mountains simply didn''t know how to utilize them.] [Of course, it might also be that their strength was too weak, and they didn''t dare to venture too far from their tribe.] [However, a doubt arose in your heart again!] [Those people in the tribes,cking strength, couldn''t collect those elixirs and treasures; not knowing how to utilize them was understandable!] [But in ancient times, did those Divine Dao cultivators just watch idly as the elixirs overflowed in these mountains without being tempted?] [Could it be that the resources of this era were so abundant?] [Forget it.] [You didn''t continue to think much.] [Who cares!] [If others don''t value it, then it''s your gain!] [You grinned and continued to diligently gather various rare spiritual herbs and elixirs.] [In the blink of an eye, another year passed.] [One day, your cultivation was fully restored.] [You once again possessed the strength of the three-star Ancient God realm.] [However, you didn''t pay much attention to it.] [Because at this moment, you saw a vast area filled with elixirs.] [At a nce, there were about hundreds of acres, all filled with elixirs.] [You roughly estimated that each elixir here was over ten thousand years old.] [If it weren''t for the certainty that no one was guarding this area.] [You would have thought you had entered the herb garden of some sect!] [Discovering such a treasure trove, you decided to stay here for a while.] [You nned to use up most of the elixirs here before continuing to explore this world.] [Thus, you built a simple dwelling here and began cultivating!] [Time flies in cultivation, and in the blink of an eye, another three years passed.] [One day, while you were consuming elixirs and cultivating, a golden light suddenly descended from the sky, enveloping you.] [You were startled.] [It wasn''t until a talent prompt appeared in your mind that you understood that it was the reward for "Loves to Teach."] [ording to the prompt, you knew that among the children you taught in the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe, someone had already determined their future path.] [So, the first stage of the talent reward had arrived.] [This made you somewhat excited, realizing you didn''t have to wait for all of them to reach their limits!] [Previously, you were a bit worried that if those children''s talents were too good and they never reached their limits, and you suddenly ended the simtion, it would be a waste!] [Now, this phased reward system was great.] [You just didn''t know which little brats had determined their future paths first?] [Did they choose the Immortal Dao? Or the Martial Dao? Or did someone gain an opportunity and step into the Divine Dao?] [Indeed, your "Loves to Teach" talent didn''t provide you with specific hints about these.] [You could only guess based on your understanding of those children''s talents.] [As for whether they ultimately chose the Immortal Dao, Martial Dao, or Divine Dao, you couldn''t know the details.] [You thought perhaps you could judge from the quality of the rewards.] [After all, the Divine Dao had a higher limit, so the rewards should be better.] [The Martial Dao and Immortal Dao were harder to judge.] [However, you didn''t have time to think too much.] [After being enveloped by the golden light, you felt yourprehension and insight increase several times, and your cultivation speed skyrocketed.] [You quickly calmed your mind and focused on cultivating.] [In the blink of an eye, five years passed.] [The golden light that enveloped you finally dissipated.] [In these five years, you advanced from the early stage of the three-star Ancient God realm to thete stage.] [Variousws also saw some improvement.] [Don''t be fooled by theck of a major realm breakthrough, only advancing two minor realms.] [You must know, in thest simtion, a major realm breakthrough took you thousands of years.] [Even with the unlimited resources from the White Tiger n that time, a major realm took you over three hundred years.] [Now, with just one talent reward, in a short five years, achieving such progress was already incredibly fast.] [The value of the "Loves to Teach" talent skyrocketed in your heart!] [You became more and more eager for the subsequent rewards.] [However, you still couldn''t figure out why the rewards from this talent descended from the sky?] [This had never happened before!] [You pondered deeply!] [Some possibilities crossed your mind.] [However, you didn''t delve too deeply.] [No matter what, you still needed to strive to improve your strength!] [With greater strength, you would have the possibility of uncovering the truth.] [In the blink of an eye, another half year passed, and once again, golden light descended from the sky, enveloping you.] [You received the "Loves to Teach" reward once more.] [However, this time, the golden lightsted only three years.] [Fifty years passed in the blink of an eye.] [During this period, the golden light from the sky urred repeatedly.] [You had been enveloped by the golden light a total of fifteen times.] [You knew that the children from the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe had all determined their future paths.] [It''s worth mentioning that each time the golden lightsted for different durations.] [There was one instance of five years, one of four years, eight of three years, and five of two years!] [It was quite chaotic, with no apparent pattern!] [You roughly judged that one or two of them had stepped into the Divine Dao!] [Onesting five years, and another four years, both could have achieved the Divine Dao, with the time difference possibly due to talent differences!] [But was your guess correct?] Chapter 228: Ancestor of Divine Dao [Actually, you don''t know if your guess is correct!] [But that doesn''t matter, and you don''t delve into it.] [Right now, you''re very excited because in just fifty years, your strength has directly broken through from the early three-star Ancient God realm to the six-star Ancient God realm!] [Such an improvement is countless times faster than using any resources for cultivation in your previous simtions.] [And this has sparked the idea in your heart to continue teaching others to cultivate, to brush up on the "Loves to Teach" talent.] [Think it, do it!] [You packed up all the elixirs in this ce and embarked on the path of education.] [A yearter, you stumbled upon a small tribe called the Toad Tribe.] [This tribe is about the same size as the initial Azure Flood Dragon Tribe.][You tried to blend into this tribe to carry out your grand n of brushing talents!] [Unfortunately, the people of this tribe are quite resistant to outsiders.] [Though they dare not do anything to you due to your strength, not a single person dares to learn cultivation from you.] [Seeing this, you don''t force it.] [If they don''t want to learn, you can''t force them, can you?] [So, you continue to search for other tribes.] [In the blink of an eye, another three years passed.] [You finally encountered another tribe.] [Named the Eagle Tribe!] [In this tribe, your n went quite smoothly.] [After you identally disyed your strength, many people in this tribe asked to learn from you.] [You took the opportunity to propose teaching everyone.] [The people of the Eagle Tribe were overjoyed.] [You were also very satisfied.] [For the next three years, you taught the people of the Eagle Tribe to cultivate.] [You did not hold back, teaching them just as you did the people of the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe!] [When you had taught all the children here to Perfect Foundation Establishment and started to polish their Golden Cores,] [You left once again.] [After that, you still let them choose their own paths.] [Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, three hundred years passed!] [During this time, you have taught people from over thirty tribes to cultivate.] [Of course, it''s not that you only found this many tribes.] [But some tribes were stubborn and xenophobic; they didn''t want to learn!] [In these three hundred years, you have been enveloped by that golden light from the sky over a hundred times.] [It''s worth mentioning that you found the duration of the golden light has shortened.] [Most of the time, it onlysts for a year, or even just half a year!] [This is quite different from the time you were enveloped by the golden light in the previous dozen times.] [Regarding this, you have some guesses in your heart.] [You think that perhaps the so-called "Loves to Teach" talent''s reward is more generous for the first batch of disciples.] [Otherwise, this phenomenon cannot be exined.] [Actually, you have an even bolder idea in your heart.] [Could it be that the so-called reward of "Loves to Teach," that golden light, is the legendary merit?] [Could it be that this world inherentlycks Martial Dao, Immortal Dao, and Divine Dao?] [The "Loves to Teach" talent is just tricking you into spreading the Dao.] [And as far as you know, making outstanding contributions to the world will result in the power of merit flowing into you.] [If this world originally had no path of cultivation, and you are now spreading the Dao,] [It indeed counts as a great contribution.] [This seems to make sense all of a sudden.] [If that''s the case, it also exins well why the duration of the golden light is getting shorter.]n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om [Because merit, this thing, only gives the most rewards the first time!] [Actually, you can have this idea!] [It''s not purely a wild guess.] [It''s because now, you have walked out of the mountains.] [You havee to a tribe with hundreds of thousands of people: the Red me Tribe!] [And aftering here, you found that there are no Divine Dao cultivators or Immortal Dao cultivators; not a single one!] [The people here all practice Martial Dao!] [No, to be precise, it can''t even be called Martial Dao.] [It''s just a rudimentary form of Martial Dao.] [Previously, those small tribes had no one who could cultivate, which was understandable.] [But a tribe of hundreds of thousands of people, with not a single person who can cultivate,] [Is clearly unreasonable.] [You judge that either this world is not the world you simted before, with not only a different timeline but also different space.] [So, this is not the period when Ancient Divine Dao was prevalent!] [However, you think this possibility is small.] [After all, during the previous simtion, you carefully looked, and the simtor only mentioned the timeline issue, not parallel space.] [Of course, you also don''t rule out the possibility that the simtor deliberately didn''t say.] [After all, you know the simtor has a certain consciousness.] [But thinking about it carefully, there''s no point for the simtor to do so.] [So, there''s only one possibility left.] [That is, this is the period of Ancient Divine Dao.] [It''s just that, at this moment, Divine Dao has not fully flourished yet.] [In fact, before you appeared, Divine Dao hadn''t even emerged.] [You are the Ancestor of Divine Dao! Also the Ancestor of Martial Dao and Immortal Dao!] [So, you would think that the previous golden light is the power of merit.] At this moment, Jiang Yifeng saw this. He sighed in his heart. "It seems that the previous thought hase true." Actually, in his initial simtion, when he was imparting the Divine Dao, Jiang Yifeng had boldly thought. Could it be that he brought the Divine Dao back ten billion years ago? After all, such things had happened in previous simtions. For example, imparting the War God Art to Big Tiger and Little White. These were changes brought about by him going to past timelines. It''s just that at the time, he was only suspicious and didn''t dare to conclude. After all, he had interacted with too few people in the simtion. But now, in the simtion, it is said that in arge tribe of hundreds of thousands of people, there is not a single person who cultivates Divine Dao or Immortal Dao. ?? Even Martial Dao has no techniques, only a rudimentary form. This is very unreasonable. So, Jiang Yifeng can basically conclude that the prevalence of Divine Dao in ancient times really started with him. His brows furrowed tightly. All of this seems to form a closed loop. But the matter has be even more significant. Originally, his greatest danger came from the cause and effect of Divine Dao. But now, since Divine Dao started because of him, Then the final point of this cause and effect can only fall on him. So from beginning to end, everything is directed at him. At this moment, Jiang Yifeng felt a headache. What kind of past does he have? At this moment, he really wanted to know. Unfortunately, it''s all just empty anxiety. However, Jiang Yifeng felt that the simtor must know the truth. It''s just not telling him! Perhaps the time is not right yet. Heforted himself with this thought. Then continued to look at the simtor. Chapter 231: Is there a master of the world? At this moment, the chieftain of the Divine Tortoise Tribe spoke with some panic, "What''s happening?" Indeed, the chieftain of the Divine Tortoise Tribe didn''t know that they had been living on the back of a totem all along. He only knew that his tribe had a Divine Tortoise totem, but as for where the totem was? After all, the ancestors only said that their tribe was very safe, and the totem was with them. He always thought that meant the totem was in the nearby sea. Who could have imagined that the totem was right beneath their feet! Previously, when the Divine Tortoise totem asked him to convey a message to you, it was through a dream transmission method. So, at this moment, the chieftain of the Divine Tortoise Tribe was even more bewildered and anxious than you! After all, the Divine Tortoise had not fully revealed itself yet, and the chieftain didn''t have your level of strength, so he couldn''t sense the Divine Tortoise; he only felt the ground moving.Seeing this, youforted the old chieftain, telling him not to worry, that their totem was about to emerge. You instructed him to calm the people of the tribe! After all, the Divine Tortoise Tribe was in chaos. No one understood what was happening. Hearing your words, the chieftain felt a bit more at ease and hurriedly went to reassure the tribe members. Shortly after the chieftain left. You stepped forward, arriving above the sea. Finally, you beheld the full appearance of the giant tortoise. To call it a giant mountain would be an understatement. It was practically a movingndmass. The tortoise''s back spanned at least several hundred square kilometers. In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this. The corner of his mouth twitched! It appeared, it appeared. As expected, the Mystic Turtle of the Endless Sea in the Southern Regions was connected to him. But the size seemed off. Jiang Yifeng remembered that although the Mystic Turtle in the Southern Regions was huge, it was only the size of a giant mountain. This Divine Tortoise, several hundred square kilometers. Clearly, it didn''t match! It seemed that the Mystic Turtle in the Southern Regions wasn''t this Divine Tortoise. But there might be some familial or other connection. As for having no connection, Jiang Yifeng didn''t dare to say that himself. A coincidence is a coincidence, but so many coincidences? How could that be? Clearly, the four fierce beasts of the Southern Regions were all rted to him. Without thinking much, he continued to look at the simtor. You looked at the Divine Tortoise without speaking. Instead, you kept pondering what rtionship this creature had with the Mystic Turtle of the Southern Regions. You didn''t speak, but the Divine Tortoise was the first to say, "Young Friend, you''ve gotten yourself into big trouble!" "Senior, what do you mean by that?" You were puzzled by the Divine Tortoise''s words. The Divine Tortoise saw your confusion but didn''t directly answer your question. Instead, it said to itself, "I may not be the strongest in this world, but I am certainly the longest-lived." "Carefully counting, I''ve lived for nearly two billion years!" "Because I''ve lived so long, I naturally know a bit more than ordinary beings!" At this point, the Divine Tortoise''s expression turned somewhat sorrowful. Then, after a moment of cautious observation, it transmitted to you, "Young Friend, do you know that this world has a master?" "What?" Upon hearing this, you were shocked! A master of the world? What level of strength would that require! Before you could think further, the Divine Tortoise''s voice transmitted to you again. "Young Friend, do you think this world has never seen the emergence of Dao?" "No, it has appeared. Over a billion years ago, people researched Martial Dao, Immortal Dao, and even Divine Dao!" "It''s just that this world has a master, and he doesn''t allow these Dao lineages to exist." "So, a billion years ago, this world underwent a reshuffling." "Almost all those who practiced Dao, both humans and beasts, were wiped out." "The remaining fierce beasts and humans are all descendants." "And I, because of myzy nature, didn''t learn those profound Dao techniques, only cultivating my innate Divine Ability ''Turtle Breath Technique,'' so I survived!" ?? At this point, the Divine Tortoise seemed to feel it wasn''t quite urate. It proudly added, "Of course, it could also be that my ''Turtle Breath Technique'' was too strong, and the world''s master didn''t sense me!" Hearing this, you understood the Divine Tortoise''s words. The world''s master does not allow anyone to practice Dao. No, it''s not just that humans are forbidden to practice Dao; even fierce beasts are not allowed. As for the Divine Tortoise''s im that its "Turtle Breath Technique" was too strong, you pretended not to hear it! Although it was indeed very strong, if it reached the realm of the world''s master, it would be impossible not to sense it. You felt that the Divine Tortoise''sziness saved it. Clearly, the world''s master only opposed the practice of Dao. He did not oppose fierce beasts cultivating their innate Divine Abilities! Just like in this world, the fierce beasts previously had considerable strength. That was all due to cultivating their innate Divine Abilities. In this light, you indeed got yourself into big trouble! You''re doing things in someone else''s world that are not allowed, how could that not be a big deal? No, that''s not right! Spreading Dao might not be such a big deal! You suddenly realized that if this world had a master. Then you, in someone else''s world, constantly simting across different world lines, causing trouble! Isn''t that more infuriating than spreading Dao? It''s like going to someone else''s house, rummaging through their things, and making a mess! And not just once, but multiple times. If the master found out, wouldn''t theye looking for trouble? In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this. He quickly became vignt. If the world had a master. Then reality was not safe! Could the previous world''s destruction also have been driven by the world''s master? After all, from the Divine Tortoise''s words, it can be inferred that the world''s master does not want anyone practicing Dao in his world. And the reality is, although Divine Dao has been suppressed, Martial Dao and Immortal Dao still exist inrge numbers. This world is no longer the way the world''s master wanted it to be. The more he thought about it, the more Jiang Yifeng felt this possibility was high. However, was the world''s master the same person as the ck-robed man who previously hunted him in the simtion? Not quite sure! But Jiang Yifeng was certain of one thing: the world''s master mentioned by the Divine Tortoise was not omniscient and omnipotent. Otherwise, he wouldn''t have allowed the Immortal Dao lineage to persist until now. Things were bing increasinglyplicated. The cause and effect of the Divine Dao had not been fully uncovered. And now the causes and effects of Martial Dao and Immortal Dao had emerged. It really seemed like he was living too long! "Sigh! Since I''m here, I might as well make the best of it!" Finally, Jiang Yifeng sighed lightly! He continued to look at the simtor. You didn''t think further but instead asked the Divine Tortoise why it was telling you all this! At this moment, you didn''t fully believe the Divine Tortoise''s words. After all, with no personal connection, why would it warn you? Chapter 230: Divine Tortoise Tribe! Before long, you and the Azure Dragon parted ways, each embarking on your own journey. The Azure Dragon was diving into the deep sea to continue its training and improvement. As for you, you were preparing to return to the maind! After all, you''ve been in this sea region for quite some time. Originally, you wanted to see how vast this ancient sea region was. But it turned out to be too vast, seemingly endless. Continuing to explore would be too much of a waste of time. You felt it wasn''t necessary! After all, you had more important matters to attend to.Your exploration of this sea region was merely a diversion. Back on the coastalnd, there were children from a tribe waiting for you to return and teach them! That''s right, your visit to this sea region was just incidental. The main reason was that there was arge tribe in this coastal area where you came to spread your teachings and cultivate talent! Exploring the sea region was something you did during your leisure time between teaching. Now, you''ve been out here for a while. If you don''t return soon, you''ll dy your main duties. As for how big the sea region is? How big the world is? You actually asked the Azure Dragon this question. But it didn''t know either!N?v(el)B\\jnn After all, it was a reclusive dragon, hiding in the great river near the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe before meeting you. Its knowledge was quite limited. Since that was the case, you didn''t delve further. How big the world is, what does it matter to you! So, you left the sea region and flew ind. In the blink of an eye, seven days passed! You returned to the coastalnd. As soon as younded, several children around ten years old ran up to you! "Teacher Jiang, you were gone for so long this time, we thought you weren''ting back!" The title "Teacher Jiang" was something you instructed the children to call you. After all, being called Master felt too formal. With so many children you were teaching, if they all called you Master, wouldn''t you be overwhelmed with disciples! You looked at this group of children, smiled, and patted their heads, teasingly saying, "Have you all learned the techniques? And now you want me to leave." ?? You now had experience teaching "disciples." No longer did you teach them hand-in-hand every day; instead, you gave them the techniques. Then, after a while, you would "assess" them. To check if they had mastered the techniques. Once they had all mastered them, you would no longer guide them. These children were thest batch. Before you went to the sea region, you had indeed only taught them the techniques. But whether they had learned them, you could tell at a nce. After all, your strength was beyondparison! Checking if the children had grasped the techniques didn''t require any extra formalities. You were just teasing the kids. Of course, you had deliberately created a form of assessment before. After all, life always needs a sense of ceremony. Yes, that''s it! You wouldn''t admit it was your mischievous pleasure. As soon as you finished speaking, the children, instead of being unhappy, eagerly asked you to assess them first. They knew that once you confirmed they had learned the techniques, The tribe would reward them with delicious food, and their treatment would improve. The children didn''t understand, but you knew that the tribe did this because of past experiences; once they learned the techniques from you, they would soon have the ability to hunt. They would quickly be the backbone of the tribe! In fact, it''s not just this tribe; most tribes are like this! It''s worth mentioning that now cultivating the Divine Dao, Martial Dao, and even Immortal Dao is no longer a secret. But there''s not much mutual teaching between tribes. Most of the tribes you taught only passed on the teachings to their own descendants. It''s not that they didn''t dare to teach without your permission. Rather, it''s because most tribes are still in apetitive rtionship. So, those tribes you haven''t taught yet are very eager for the Divine Dao, Martial Dao, and Immortal Dao. Just like this tribe now! So, after you spread your teachings here, the children who learned from you were given special attention. And you became the most important person here! Back to the present. You symbolically assessed the children''s mastery of the techniques. Then, you informed them that they had all graduated! And just at that moment, An elder approached! He was the chief of this tribe! Before either of you could speak, The children ran to the elder, moring for their rewards. The chief smiled at the children, telling them toe to his house in the evening for their rewards, and then sent them away. Then, he sped his hands together and, with some embarrassment, said to you, "Sir, the Totem Ancestor would like to meet you!" You were taken aback by his words. Totem Ancestor? You were familiar with the concept of totems, having been in this world for so long. Simply put, it was a demonic beast that protected a particr tribe. For example, the Azure Dragon was referred to as a totem by the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe. However, as far as you knew, those totems rarely interacted with the people of the tribe. Unless it was something significant. Why did the totem of this tribe want to see you? Unable to figure it out, you didn''t dwell on it! After all, totems were generally friendly to humans, so you weren''t worried about any danger. So, you nodded to the chief, signaling him to lead the way. Afterward, the chief led you to the seaside, then respectfully began to whisper to the sea. As the chief whispered, waves slowly began to form in the sea. Was the totem of this tribe in the sea? It seemed quite reasonable upon reflection. You also knew this tribe was called the Divine Tortoise Tribe. So, their totem should be a sea turtle. But soon, you realized your assumption was wrong. Terribly wrong. It wasn''t in the sea, but beneath your feet. You looked at the scene before you, astonished. You saw that you and the entire tribe were floating in the sea. Of course, it wasn''t that everyone had fallen into the sea. Instead, thend where everyone lived was moving! It had moved into the sea. At this moment, you fully understood. This tribe had been living on a giant tortoise all along. This was something you had never expected. In fact, it wasn''t your fault. It could only be said that the giant tortoise''s breath-holding technique was too powerful. You had lived here for so long and had never noticed anything unusual. Chapter 231: Is there a master of the world? At this moment, the chieftain of the Divine Tortoise Tribe spoke with some panic, "What''s happening?" Indeed, the chieftain of the Divine Tortoise Tribe didn''t know that they had been living on the back of a totem all along. He only knew that his tribe had a Divine Tortoise totem, but as for where the totem was? After all, the ancestors only said that their tribe was very safe, and the totem was with them. He always thought that meant the totem was in the nearby sea. Who could have imagined that the totem was right beneath their feet! Previously, when the Divine Tortoise totem asked him to convey a message to you, it was through a dream transmission method. So, at this moment, the chieftain of the Divine Tortoise Tribe was even more bewildered and anxious than you! After all, the Divine Tortoise had not fully revealed itself yet, and the chieftain didn''t have your level of strength, so he couldn''t sense the Divine Tortoise; he only felt the ground moving.Seeing this, youforted the old chieftain, telling him not to worry, that their totem was about to emerge. You instructed him to calm the people of the tribe! After all, the Divine Tortoise Tribe was in chaos. No one understood what was happening. Hearing your words, the chieftain felt a bit more at ease and hurriedly went to reassure the tribe members. Shortly after the chieftain left. You stepped forward, arriving above the sea. Finally, you beheld the full appearance of the giant tortoise. To call it a giant mountain would be an understatement. It was practically a movingndmass. The tortoise''s back spanned at least several hundred square kilometers. In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this. The corner of his mouth twitched! It appeared, it appeared. As expected, the Mystic Turtle of the Endless Sea in the Southern Regions was connected to him. But the size seemed off. Jiang Yifeng remembered that although the Mystic Turtle in the Southern Regions was huge, it was only the size of a giant mountain. This Divine Tortoise, several hundred square kilometers. Clearly, it didn''t match! It seemed that the Mystic Turtle in the Southern Regions wasn''t this Divine Tortoise. But there might be some familial or other connection. As for having no connection, Jiang Yifeng didn''t dare to say that himself. A coincidence is a coincidence, but so many coincidences? How could that be? Clearly, the four fierce beasts of the Southern Regions were all rted to him. Without thinking much, he continued to look at the simtor. You looked at the Divine Tortoise without speaking. Instead, you kept pondering what rtionship this creature had with the Mystic Turtle of the Southern Regions. You didn''t speak, but the Divine Tortoise was the first to say, "Young Friend, you''ve gotten yourself into big trouble!" "Senior, what do you mean by that?" You were puzzled by the Divine Tortoise''s words. The Divine Tortoise saw your confusion but didn''t directly answer your question. Instead, it said to itself, "I may not be the strongest in this world, but I am certainly the longest-lived." "Carefully counting, I''ve lived for nearly two billion years!" "Because I''ve lived so long, I naturally know a bit more than ordinary beings!" At this point, the Divine Tortoise''s expression turned somewhat sorrowful. Then, after a moment of cautious observation, it transmitted to you, "Young Friend, do you know that this world has a master?" "What?" Upon hearing this, you were shocked! A master of the world? What level of strength would that require! Before you could think further, the Divine Tortoise''s voice transmitted to you again. "Young Friend, do you think this world has never seen the emergence of Dao?"n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om "No, it has appeared. Over a billion years ago, people researched Martial Dao, Immortal Dao, and even Divine Dao!" "It''s just that this world has a master, and he doesn''t allow these Dao lineages to exist." "So, a billion years ago, this world underwent a reshuffling." "Almost all those who practiced Dao, both humans and beasts, were wiped out." "The remaining fierce beasts and humans are all descendants." "And I, because of myzy nature, didn''t learn those profound Dao techniques, only cultivating my innate Divine Ability ''Turtle Breath Technique,'' so I survived!" ?? At this point, the Divine Tortoise seemed to feel it wasn''t quite urate. It proudly added, "Of course, it could also be that my ''Turtle Breath Technique'' was too strong, and the world''s master didn''t sense me!" Hearing this, you understood the Divine Tortoise''s words. The world''s master does not allow anyone to practice Dao. No, it''s not just that humans are forbidden to practice Dao; even fierce beasts are not allowed. As for the Divine Tortoise''s im that its "Turtle Breath Technique" was too strong, you pretended not to hear it! Although it was indeed very strong, if it reached the realm of the world''s master, it would be impossible not to sense it. You felt that the Divine Tortoise''sziness saved it. Clearly, the world''s master only opposed the practice of Dao. He did not oppose fierce beasts cultivating their innate Divine Abilities! Just like in this world, the fierce beasts previously had considerable strength. That was all due to cultivating their innate Divine Abilities. In this light, you indeed got yourself into big trouble! You''re doing things in someone else''s world that are not allowed, how could that not be a big deal? No, that''s not right! Spreading Dao might not be such a big deal! You suddenly realized that if this world had a master. Then you, in someone else''s world, constantly simting across different world lines, causing trouble! Isn''t that more infuriating than spreading Dao? It''s like going to someone else''s house, rummaging through their things, and making a mess! And not just once, but multiple times. If the master found out, wouldn''t theye looking for trouble? In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this. He quickly became vignt. If the world had a master. Then reality was not safe! Could the previous world''s destruction also have been driven by the world''s master? After all, from the Divine Tortoise''s words, it can be inferred that the world''s master does not want anyone practicing Dao in his world. And the reality is, although Divine Dao has been suppressed, Martial Dao and Immortal Dao still exist inrge numbers. This world is no longer the way the world''s master wanted it to be. The more he thought about it, the more Jiang Yifeng felt this possibility was high. However, was the world''s master the same person as the ck-robed man who previously hunted him in the simtion? Not quite sure! But Jiang Yifeng was certain of one thing: the world''s master mentioned by the Divine Tortoise was not omniscient and omnipotent. Otherwise, he wouldn''t have allowed the Immortal Dao lineage to persist until now. Things were bing increasinglyplicated. The cause and effect of the Divine Dao had not been fully uncovered. And now the causes and effects of Martial Dao and Immortal Dao had emerged. It really seemed like he was living too long! "Sigh! Since I''m here, I might as well make the best of it!" Finally, Jiang Yifeng sighed lightly! He continued to look at the simtor. You didn''t think further but instead asked the Divine Tortoise why it was telling you all this! At this moment, you didn''t fully believe the Divine Tortoise''s words. After all, with no personal connection, why would it warn you? Chapter 232: Gate of the World! [The Divine Tortoise sensed your distrust.] [However, it didn''t mind and continued speaking on its own: "Based on information from a billion years ago, I know that if the world''s master wants toe to this world, they must pass through the World Gate."] ["As long as you destroy the World Gate, your crisis can be temporarily resolved!"] [At this point, the Divine Tortoise looked at you with a bit of pride.] [Its expression seemed to say: Beg it! If you beg it, it will tell you the location of the World Gate!]n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [You heard this and frowned deeply.] [You felt like the Divine Tortoise was talking nonsense.] [The world''s master? Needing a World Gate toe to their own world?] [Seeing your prolonged silence, the Divine Tortoise thought you might not understand the meaning of the World Gate.][So, it exined to you.] [It said that even if this world belonged to the world''s master,] [a world could have countless time-spaces.] [The World Gate is the coordinate of the timeline.] [Once this coordinate is destroyed,] [the world''s master will find it difficult to lock onto the timeline.] [If they want to find you, they must search through each timeline!] [Upon hearing this, you instantly understood.] [In short, destroying the World Gate could confuse the world''s master''s vision.] [However, you still felt something was off.] [ording to the Divine Tortoise, it seemed like a living Lei Feng.] [Everything seemed to be for you.] [It didn''t seem to have any ulterior motives.] [You''re not its child, is it really that kind-hearted?] [Is that even possible?] [Thinking of this, you didn''t speak, just smiled at the Divine Tortoise.] [Your expression clearly said that no matter what it said, you wouldn''t believe it.] [Of course, this was just a facade.] [In fact, when you heard about the World Gate, you believed most of what the Divine Tortoise said.] [After all, it perfectly matched the ck-robed man''s pursuit of you across time and space.] [You thought it was very likely that the ck-robed man was the world''s master.] [Because you destroyed the World Gate this time, the world''s master searched for you across countless time-spaces to kill you?] [This possibility was indeed very high.] [After all, knowing the existence of the World Gate, you would definitely want to destroy it.] [Not only to live longer in this simtion,] [but also for safety in reality.] [After all, only by destroying the World Gate could the world''s master be confused.] [They would need to search through each time-space to find you.] [Only then would you have a chance to live by hiding.] [So, no matter what, you definitely had to destroy the World Gate.] [However, you didn''t want to be a fool.] [You patiently waited for the Divine Tortoise to reveal its purpose.] [Time passed bit by bit.] [After a long time, the Divine Tortoise saw that you were really unmoved.] [It sighed and said, "Alright! I have a purpose too!"] ["Although my Mystic Turtle n is long-lived, we are not immortal. I, who have lived for two billion years, have little lifespan left!"] [Then, the Mystic Turtle said a lot more.] [The general idea was that the Divine Tortoise was dying.] [Although its n had a long lifespan, the price was slumber.] [Even so, its lifespan was nearing its end.] [However, the Divine Tortoise said it had a way to extend its lifespan.] [That was to cultivate the Immortal Dao.] [But it didn''t dare, fearing retribution from the world''s master.] [So, it had the idea of destroying the World Gate.] [As long as the World Gate was destroyed, the world''s master wouldn''t be able to find this ce quickly, giving it a chance to cultivate the Immortal Dao and extend its lifespan.] [With this exnation, the Divine Tortoise''s intentions seemed reasonable.] [It just wanted to live.] [But, wasn''t it treating you like a fool?] [It wanted to live, so it had you take the risk?] [You didn''t believe that destroying the World Gate would be without danger.] [If there was really no danger, wouldn''t it destroy it itself?] [Why go through the trouble of finding you?] [You sneered and told the Divine Tortoise: You''re not strong enough, it''s stronger, let it destroy the World Gate.] [Actually, you weren''t just talking nonsense.] [Based on the information from your Chaos Heavy Pupil, this Divine Tortoise had the strength to rival a half-step Dao-level expert.] [And you? Only at the eight-star Ancient God realm, equivalent to the Great Principal Golden Immortal level, with realbat power only matching the Saint realm.] [Of course, if it came to a life-and-death struggle, you were confident you could escape from a typical half-step Dao-level expert.] [However, these were just your own thoughts.] [As for the real situation, it would only be known after a fight.] [But you knew you were in a simtion, so you were bolder.] [This was also why you dared to face the Divine Tortoise without fear.] [You were no longer the ignorant youth of the past.] [You had learned how to use your advantages, no longer just living by hiding.] [At this moment, the Divine Tortoise looked conflicted after hearing your words.] [After thinking for a long time, it said it still had to take care of the people of the Divine Tortoise Tribe and couldn''t leave.] [It was still more suitable for you to destroy the World Gate.] [You bluntly said you could help take care of the people of the Divine Tortoise Tribe.] [Perfectly refuting the poor excuse the Divine Tortoise had found.] [Then, the Divine Tortoise said that the people of the Divine Tortoise Tribe lived on its back, and moving them was very troublesome, and so on.] [But how could you indulge it; you directly told it; you were willing to help!] [Then, in the blink of an eye, you appeared on the Divine Tortoise''s back.] [With a wave of your hand, you swept up the entire Divine Tortoise Tribe.] [Then you moved them off the turtle''s back and onto solid ground.] [All of this happened in an instant.] [You briefly reassured the startled tribe members.] [You told their chief that their Divine Tortoise totem had to leave for a while and that they should find a ce to settle on their own.] [After that, you returned to the Divine Tortoise.] [Your actions left the Divine Tortoise stunned.] [It was momentarily at a loss for excuses, falling into prolonged silence!] [After a long time, the Divine Tortoise spoke again: "I still have a sickly son to take care of. I think it''s better for you to destroy the World Gate!"] [After speaking, a small turtle the size of a bowl appeared on the Divine Tortoise''s w.] [Seeing this, you couldn''t help but twitch your mouth.] [You thought to yourself: "This is your son? Are you kidding me?"] [This Divine Tortoise was really lying with its eyes open!] [With its hundreds of square kilometers of size, could it have a son the size of a bowl?] [However, you didn''t expose it.] [Instead, you said to the Divine Tortoise: "Your son is my nephew, rest assured and go, I''ll take care of him!"] Chapter 233: Mothers love is like a mountain! As soon as the words were spoken, you found yourself next to the Divine Tortoise''s "child." Taking advantage of the Divine Tortoise''s distraction, you gently held its "child" in your hands. Afterward, you and the Divine Tortoise had a brief tug-of-war over its "child." In the end, the Divine Tortoise left to destroy the World Gate. However, before leaving, it gave you the coordinates of the World Gate. It said it wasn''t absolutely confident. If it failed, you could give it a try. Watching the Divine Tortoise''s departing figure, you felt a bit emotional. Did you win? It seems so, but wasn''t this the Divine Tortoise''s intention all along?You looked at the small turtle, the size of a bowl, in your hand. With a sigh, you said, "Little one, you have a mother who loves you!" Indeed, the Divine Tortoise was going to destroy the World Gate all for this little turtle. Although the Divine Tortoise never said it, after examining the little turtle''s condition, you fully understood. The Divine Tortoise was indeed shrewd! In fact, the condition for the Divine Tortoise agreeing to destroy the World Gate was for you to take care of the little turtle and ensure it lived for at least a thousand years. At the time, you agreed without a second thought. After all, for the offspring of a Divine Tortoise, living a thousand years should be easy, barring any idents. But now, you realized that this little turtle was born with defects,cking any innate Divine Ability. In simple terms, it was just an ordinary turtle, and a malnourished one at that. Under normal circumstances, it would be fortunate for this little turtle to live ten years, let alone a thousand. Moreover, the little turtle''s spiritual intelligence hadn''t awakened, and it couldn''t cultivate. In this situation, even with the Divine Tortoise''s half-Dao level strength, there was nothing it could do. After all, its strength came from its innate Divine Ability, which was natural. As long as it lived long enough, it would have such strength. It had no way to awaken the little turtle''s spiritual intelligence or its innate Divine Ability in advance. This might be the fatal w of fierce beasts that cultivate innate Divine Abilities. They can only ensure their own strength but can''t help others. Of course, if a fierce beast''s innate Divine Ability was to help others, that would be a different story. But so far, you haven''t discovered any fierce beast with such an innate Divine Ability. So, the Divine Tortoise''s condition was truly extraordinary. And you fully understood the Divine Tortoise''s ultimate goal. It just wanted to save its child. The previous tug-of-war with you was merely to get you to agree to take care of its child and ensure it lived a thousand years. Of course, the Divine Tortoise was also gambling. It gambled that you wouldn''t break your promise, that you wouldn''t go back on your word. It also gambled that you could save its child. Of course, all of this was based on the fact that the Divine Tortoise, ten billion years ago, had seen the founders of the Immortal Dao, Martial Dao, and Divine Dao use various miraculous skills. For example, arranging stones and runes to form mysterious Light Shields that could kill or trap enemies. Or using a bunch of herbs and flowers, burning them into a paste to cure diseases and save lives! The Divine Tortoise didn''t know this was Formation Dao and Pill Dao. Because back then, these two Daos hadn''t be popr, and the world''s master began a purge. Although the Divine Tortoise didn''t know the names, it knew such skills existed. It thought: the founders of the Immortal Dao, Martial Dao, and Divine Dao mastered those skills. Then you, the current founder of the Immortal Dao, Martial Dao, and Divine Dao, should have simr skills, right? This was the wisdom of the Divine Tortoise. Thinking of this, you watched the departing Divine Tortoise with aplex expression. Finally, you shook your head and chuckled, "Don''t worry! I''ll take good care of your child. A thousand years is no big deal!" Indeed, in your view, ensuring this little turtle''s survival for a thousand years wasn''t difficult. An Enlightenment Pill would solve the problem. Just use the Enlightenment Pill to awaken the little turtle''s spiritual intelligence early, then teach it cultivation. It''s not too hard. The Divine Tortoise found it difficult because this world currently had no Pill Dao. You hadn''t wasted time teaching Pill Dao before. After all, getting started with alchemy is harder than starting cultivation, requiring not only cultivation support but also a lot of theoretical and practical knowledge. After seeing the Divine Tortoise off, you took the little turtle back to the temporary Divine Tortoise Tribe. In the following days, you helped the Divine Tortoise Tribe rebuild their home. Then you began collecting elixirs to refine the Enlightenment Pill. Since you promised the Divine Tortoise, you didn''t want to break your word. After all, refining the Enlightenment Pill wasn''t tooborious. Half a month passed in the blink of an eye. You sessfully refined the Enlightenment Pill and gave it to the little turtle. The little turtle''s spiritual intelligence awakened. However, teaching it to cultivate wasn''t going smoothly. Perhaps the little turtle inherited the Divine Tortoise''sziness and love for sleep. Every time it practiced, it would fall asleep. Your teaching career faced its first major setback! Five years passed, and the little turtle''s lifespan was halfway gone, yet it still hadn''t begun cultivation. With no other choice, you refined several pills to increase its lifespan and gave them to the little turtle. By the tenth year, the little turtle finally stumbled its way to the Qi Refining period, extending its lifespan. However, this little turtle seemed different from humans.N?v(el)B\\jnn When humans reach the Qi Refining period, they only gain a hundred years of lifespan, but you found that this little turtle gained a thousand years. Though you didn''t understand the reason, it was a good thing regardless. With this, as long as nothing unexpected happens, you''ve fulfilled your promise to the Divine Tortoise. When the little turtle broke through to the Qi Refining period and its lifespan increased to a thousand years, somewhere in the void, a giant Divine Tortoise shed two lines of tears. It murmured, "Child, grow up well!" Then, the Divine Tortoise broke through the void and quickly departed. It had its own promise to fulfill. Not just for you, but for its child. At that moment, you looked up at the void, smiled slightly, and shook your head. "Really, am I that untrustworthy?" Indeed, you had long since discovered the Divine Tortoise. You hadn''t noticed it in all those years because you hadn''t expected it to hide underground, and the Divine Tortoise had been in a deep sleep, using the Turtle Breath Technique. This time, the Divine Tortoise was hiding in the void, watching secretly. The difference in concealment between these two methods was vast. Chapter 234: This world is too vast! In the blink of an eye, a hundred years passed. At this moment, the little tortoise had finally cultivated to the Foundation Establishment stage. If it were a human, reaching the Foundation Establishment stage would generally extend their lifespan to about three hundred years. But the lifespan of the little tortoise increased by ten thousand years. Reading this, you can''t help but sigh, "Truly the longest-living race!" After the little tortoise broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage, you felt it was time to leave. Although you promised the Divine Tortoise to take care of its child, you couldn''t possibly watch over the little tortoise for a lifetime. Now that the little tortoise has a ten-thousand-year lifespan, as long as you find a safe ce for it, you think it won''t be a problem. This would also fulfill the Divine Tortoise''s request.But what ce could be considered rtively safe? You pondered deeply and finally decided to set up a formation. ce the little tortoise within the formation! This way, it should be able to avoid most dangers. Even though your current Formation Dao seems a bit trivialpared to your cultivation level. But regardless, you are still a Sixth-grade Immortal Formation Master, capable of setting up a formation to withstand Golden Immortal-level power. If you put in more effort to set up abination formation! Then even a Supreme Unity Golden Immortal could be defended against! So, you have this confidence! After all, in this world, apart from the already powerful fierce beasts. The humans and fierce beasts who started cultivating after you spread the Dao, even the Chosen among them, would take thousands of years to reach Golden Immortal or even Supreme Unity Golden Immortal strength. Those with slightly poorer aptitude might take tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years. You believe that as long as the formation is set up properly, the little tortoise should have no major issues surviving unless it''s extremely unlucky. With this thought, you immediately began setting up the formation in the sea outside the Divine Tortoise Tribe. In the blink of an eye, three days passed. Aplexbination formation took shape. You were very satisfied with this formation. The result was even better than you imagined.N?v(el)B\\jnn Feeling the aura of the formation, you thought it might even withstand a Great Principal Golden Immortal-level expert. Moreover, this formation, besides its defensive capabilities, also had strong concealment. Unless someone deliberately and carefully investigated, you believed a Great Principal Golden Immortal-level expert wouldn''t even discover this formation. ??? Havingpleted everything, you returned to the Divine Tortoise Tribe! You looked at the little tortoise, now the size of a washbasin, and said to it, "Little Tortoise, I''ve found you a new home, let''s go take a look!" With that, you didn''t care whether the little tortoise was willing or not, you grabbed it and headed towards the formation you had just set up. You ced the little tortoise inside the formation, then continuously took out various pills and resources, stuffing them to the little tortoise! This left the already not-so-bright little tortoise utterly confused. However, you didn''t exin, only leaving a sentence: "Little Tortoise! Stay here and don''t wander off; remember to cultivate well and strive to live on!" In your heart, you added, "This is your mother''s wish!" After that, you said no more and turned to leave. Leaving only the little tortoise, bewildered within the formation. Fortunately, it was still a child among the tortoise tribe, unable toprehend the sorrow of parting. So, not long after you left, the little tortoise found afortable spot and prepared to sleep. What could be more important than sleep? However, the little tortoise still remembered your parting words. "Don''t wander off, cultivate well, strive to live on!" the little tortoise murmured as it slowly drifted to sleep. But with no one to wake it up for cultivation, how long would this sleepst? That was unknown. And you, after settling the little tortoise, did not return to the Divine Tortoise Tribe. You left, wanting to check the coordinates of the World Gate. You wanted to see if the Divine Tortoise had seeded. After all, this was not just the Divine Tortoise''s matter. It was closely rted to you as well. If the World Gate wasn''t destroyed, your danger was even greater than the Divine Tortoise''s! You remembered the Divine Tortoise saying that if you followed the sea forward to the world''s end, you would see the World Gate. So, you traversed the sea at full speed. Not flying, but constantly crossing space, traveling through it. In fact, breaking space wasn''t difficult; you didn''t dare to traverse space before because breaking it would create chaotic void currents and void storms. Those were deadly! You must know, void storms attack indiscriminately, and even Supreme Unity Golden Immortal-level experts have perished in them. This is why only Great Principal Golden Immortal-level experts would traverse space. However, now you are unafraid. With your current strength, void storms pose no threat to you. Your speed is incredibly fast. After all, you haveprehended the Law of Time, enhancing your body techniques, giving you a significant speed advantage. You break space and swiftly traverse it with your body techniques before it heals. Each leap takes you millions of miles away! This distance, in your past life, would have circled the Earth hundreds of times! But in this world, this distance is nothing. Of course, this doesn''t mean you''re slow! In fact, your speed far surpasses that of an average Great Principal Golden Immortal-level expert. It''s just that this world is too vast! ... A yearter, you were still in the boundless sea! Ten yearster, you were still striving to traverse. A hundred yearster, looking at the endless sea, you sighed, "This world is too vast!" You had imagined the world was big, but not this big! It''s simply absurd. In fact, over this century, you''ve encountered some incidents. Mostmonly, you were attacked by various fierce beasts. There were aerial fierce beasts and marine fierce beasts! All sorts of strange and bizarre creatures. These fierce beasts didn''t seem very intelligent. They couldn''t recognize their own strength! While broadening your horizons, you also feasted well. In the blink of an eye, a few more days passed. As you traversed the void, you suddenly saw a giant creature roaring in the sea. Then, you saw it suddenly transform into a roc, soaring upwards! This made you exim repeatedly, "WTF, WTF!" This must be the legendary Leviathan-Roc. You suddenly recalled a saying from your past life: "In the Northern Sea, there is a fish, its name is Leviathan, sorge it can''t fit in a pot..." Chapter 235: Targeted by the Leviathan-Roc! [You licked your lips, thinking to yourself, "With that size, one pot definitely won''t be enough!"] [Just as you were considering whether to prepare two grills instead.] [You noticed that the Leviathan-Roc seemed to be holding something in its mouth!] [Upon closer inspection, you eximed, "WTF!"] [Isn''t that azure thing in the Leviathan-Roc''s mouth the Azure Dragon?] [How did it end up like this, buddy?] [How did it be the Leviathan-Roc''s meal?] [But then again, it makes sense; legends say that the Leviathan-Roc indeed feeds on dragons!] [At this moment, you''re faced with a serious dilemma.][Should you save the Azure Dragon?] [You have to remember, you once fought against the Azure Dragon.] [Back then, you were evenly matched.] [Though you didn''t go all out, neither did the Azure Dragon!] [Since the Azure Dragon couldn''t defeat the Leviathan-Roc, could you?] [You think it''s unlikely you could either.] [You nced at the Azure Dragon in the Leviathan-Roc''s mouth, mourned for a few seconds, and then prepared to flee!] [Thinking to yourself, "It''s not that I don''t want to save you, buddy, but I just can''t beat it."] [Admittedly, you''re still as pragmatic as ever.] [However, as you n to escape, the Leviathan-Roc seems unwilling to let you go.] [It has noticed you and is rapidly flying towards you.] [You quickly try to run.] [But trying to outrun the Leviathan-Roc?] [That''s like showing off swordy in front of Guan Yu!] [In an instant, it caught up with you.] [Your pride in your speed is utterly insignificant in the face of the Leviathan-Roc.] [Seeing this, you know you can''t escape.] [Since that''s the case, you have no choice but to fight for your life.] [At this moment, the Azure Dragon, still in the Leviathan-Roc''s grasp, also noticed you.] [The Azure Dragon isn''t dead yet; it''s still resisting.] [Upon seeing you, its resistance became even more intense.] [It actually managed to briefly break free from the Leviathan-Roc!] [It shouted at you, "I''ll hold it off, you run!"] [Hearing this, all you want to say is, "Well, we''ve only met twice, we''re not that close, don''t be so heroic, okay?"] [Indeed, in your view, you''re not that familiar with the Azure Dragon!] [Although you learned some information from the Azure Dragon, the truth is, you''ve only met it twice.] [You were already nning to run, but with it acting like this, how could you just leave?] [So, you made a decision, thinking you should prepare two grills to avenge the Azure Dragon in the future.] [Immediately, you ran off without stopping.] ["It''s not that I''m disloyal, but we''re not close enough to die together on the same day!"] [In fact, you''ve already used your Chaos Heavy Pupil to assess the Leviathan-Roc''s strength, half-Dao level.] [While you''re only at the eight-star Ancient God realm, equivalent to the Great Principal Golden Immortal level in Immortal Dao.] [There''s still the Quasi-Saint realm, Saint realm, and then the half-Dao level in between.] [That''s a gap of three major realms.] [Moreover, the Leviathan-Roc is a standout among the half-Dao level.] [It''s capable of escaping from a true Dao-level opponent!] [Because of this, you gave up the idea of facing it head-on.] [As for the Azure Dragon, it can only rely on its own luck.] [You ran, and you ran fast!] [In the blink of an eye, you vanished from sight.] [But you didn''t know that it was precisely your speed that caught the Leviathan-Roc''s attention.] [The Leviathan-Roc knows that humans have only been practicing cultivation for a few years.] [Unexpectedly, in such a short time, you''ve achieved such speed.] [If you further improve your strength, wouldn''t you threaten its title as the king of speed?] [For this reason, the Leviathan-Roc even abandoned the Azure Dragon and pursued you directly.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [It even considered whether it should visit human society.] [And kill all those humans.] [Otherwise, if more people like you appear, wouldn''t its title as the king of speed be taken by humans?] [...] [A few minutester, the Leviathan-Roc caught up with you again.] [At this moment, you''re on the verge of tears.] [You have no idea why the Leviathan-Roc is so fixated on you.] [You''re just a human, not much meat on you.] [If you knew that the Leviathan-Roc was fixated on you because of your speed, and even the entire human race!] [You might be even more devastated.] [With the Leviathan-Roc chasing again, you know there''s no peaceful resolution.] [You take a deep breath and begin to reveal your own aura.] [Since that''s the case, then fight with all your might!] [Let''s see if the half-Dao level is truly that unreachable.] [The Leviathan-Roc, seeing you still want to resist, showed a bit of interest.] [It acknowledges that humans have indeede up with some tricks, but in just a few thousand years, you want to challenge a ruler like it?] [It doesn''t know whether to praise your bravery or call you ignorant.] [However, the Leviathan-Roc doesn''t know that you haven''t just been cultivating for a few thousand years.] [You''re a man with a simtor!] [Of course, this is also rted to the fact that fierce beasts of this era don''t have a clear division of power.] [All battles among fierce beasts are based on intuition.] [If they feel they can win, then they''ll go after that race in the future.] [After all, the innate Divine Abilities of a race''s fierce beasts are the same.] [In this era, strength is still estimated based on age.] [The older the same kind of fierce beast, the stronger it is.] [Martial Dao, Immortal Dao, Divine Dao, these new systems, the Leviathan-Roc and other fierce beasts haven''t adapted to yet.] [They habitually calcte strength by years.] [In fact, the reason you''ve been attacked by many fierce beasts before is the same.] [It''s not that those fierce beasts are really stupid, knowing they can''t beat you but still causing trouble.] [It''s just that their original concepts haven''t changed yet.] [Compared to the Leviathan-Roc''s contempt and arrogance, you appear more serious and vignt.] [Although you''ve never seen the Leviathan-Roc before, after all, whether in your past life or this life, you''ve heard the legends of the Leviathan-Roc.] R? [Without hesitation, you unleash your fullbat power and strike first.] [Since you''re going to fight, it''s best to strike first.] [You start with a Silent Destruction Fist that surpasses the perfect level.] [Due to its carelessness, the Leviathan-Roc was hit squarely by you.] [Of course, perhaps it wasn''t carelessness, but rather it didn''t take you seriously.] [As a result, the Leviathan-Roc paid the price for its arrogance.] [The Leviathan-Roc spat out a mouthful of blood, and its massive body actually shrank a bit.] [That''s right, the Leviathan-Roc shrank.] [This, in fact, is the result of your years of cultivation.] [Your Law of Time has advanced.] [You can now briefly use time reversal on a single person or object.] [You know that the older a fierce beast is, the stronger it is.] [So you reverse time to reduce the opponent''s strength!] Chapter 236: The meat is too tough, not recommended for consumption! The Leviathan-Roc, due to its arrogance, was struck by your advanced version of the Silent Destruction Fist, causing it to regress and weaken. However, you weren''t feeling well either. Crossing three major realms to forcibly reverse time on the Leviathan-Roc, you suffered a bacsh, spitting out a mouthful of blood. But this was all within your expectations. So, you quickly activated the War God Body! Bacsh? Ha, with the Battle Techniques of the War God Body, the injuries from the bacsh only serve to enhance yourbat power! At this moment, the Leviathan-Roc also realized what was happening. It put away its disdain for you.In an instant, you both engaged in battle. "Bang!" Before long, you were struck down by the Leviathan-Roc, falling into the sea. Indeed, even with the ebb and flow of power, you were still no match for the Leviathan-Roc. But it doesn''t matter, as long as you don''t die or get instantly killed. You can fight, with the War God Body''s Battle Techniques, you will only grow stronger as you fight. You once again soared from the sea, battling fiercely with the Leviathan-Roc. With each injury you sustained, yourbat power grew stronger. On the first day, you were overwhelmed by the Leviathan-Roc, barely holding on for a dozen moves! By the tenth day, you managed to withstand over a hundred moves before being struck down. Three monthster, you could already fight the Leviathan-Roc to a standstill. However, the cost was not small. You were in a sorry state! Your white clothes were stained red with blood. Your body was already shattered. But it was all worth it, as you saw the hope of victory! During this time, the Azure Dragon also came to assist you multiple times. At the beginning, being able to hold on without being directly killed by the Leviathan-Roc wasrgely thanks to the Azure Dragon''s help. Otherwise, when you were first struck down, you might have been killed by the Leviathan-Roc. However, now the Azure Dragon could no longer assist.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om Having intervened at critical moments multiple times, the Azure Dragon also endured many attacks from the Leviathan-Roc. Without the War God Body, the Azure Dragon was now breathing more out than in, truly on the brink of death. It no longer had the strength to fight. Time passed. In the blink of an eye, several more months went by. Your battle with the Leviathan-Roc continued. However, the roles of offense and defense had reversed. You could now suppress the Leviathan-Roc, and although you couldn''t easily kill it, victory was inevitable. The Leviathan-Roc had long regretted its actions. If it had known, it wouldn''t have put on airs. If it hadn''t been careless and underestimated you. If it hadn''t been hit by your time-reversing Silent Destruction Fist, it could have killed you long ago. "Poof!" The Leviathan-Roc was hit by you again, spitting out a mouthful of old blood. "No, I can''t keep fighting!" The Leviathan-Roc realized that if it continued, it might end up dying here. It was already thinking of retreating! However, you stuck close to the Leviathan-Roc, attacking relentlessly; it seemed escaping the battle wasn''t easy. The Leviathan-Roc kept looking for opportunities to disengage and escape. But your attacks were so dense that if the Leviathan-Roc dared to turn and flee, it would surely be hit by a barrage of attacks and fall. In fact, you could sense the Leviathan-Roc''s desire to escape. If you let it escape with such a big advantage, it would be too humiliating. The Azure Dragon was watching from the sea! No, it''s the elder sister! Of course, most importantly, all the beatings you took before would have been for nothing. That was absolutely uneptable. So, your attacks became even more intense and powerful. For a while, the Leviathan-Roc couldn''t find any chance to escape, and because it was focused on finding a way to flee, it suffered even more severe injuries. £Ò? Seeing this, you sneered inwardly, "Now you want to run? Toote!" One day, two days, three days, in the blink of an eye, another half year passed. Now, you and the Azure Dragon were on a strange ind in the sea. In front of you were tworge barbecue grills. On the grills was none other than the Leviathan-Roc. A few days ago, you finally slew the half-Dao level Leviathan-Roc! In the end, you dragged your exhausted body, along with the barely alive Azure Dragon and the corpse of the Leviathan-Roc, to this unfamiliar ind. Looking at the Leviathan-Roc on the grill, your throat kept moving, and you could feel saliva continuously secreting. This was grilled Leviathan-Roc. A joke from your past life on the inte had now be a reality. How could you not be excited? Because of this, you even temporarily forgot about the wounds on your body. The Azure Dragon beside you watched with shining eyes, asionally shivering. A bit scared, what''s going on, you wouldn''t grill it too, would you? Just then, you tore off arge piece of grilled Leviathan-Roc meat and offered it to the Azure Dragon in a friendly manner. This was half-Dao level Leviathan-Roc meat, perfect for the Azure Dragon to replenish itself and aid in recovery! The Azure Dragon trembled as it took the Leviathan-Roc meat, looking at you with a hint of fear in its eyes. Seeing this, you wondered if the Azure Dragon''s brain had been damaged. So, you asked with concern. You asked the Azure Dragon if something was wrong with its body and if it needed your help! As you spoke, you didn''t forget to turn the grilling Leviathan-Roc meat. You were using the Law of Fire to grill it, so you couldn''t let such a good ingredient get overcooked; you had to turn it frequently! However, your question seemed to the Azure Dragon like you were asking, "Are you about to die? If so, I''ll start grilling!" So, the Azure Dragon trembled even more. It quickly replied, "No, no, no problem, not a single problem, I''m still alive, don''t grill me!" Hearing the Azure Dragon''s nonsense, you pped your forehead, "Sure enough, the Azure Dragon''s brain got damaged." What was it even saying? Are you that kind of person? A friendly and living Azure Dragon could never be on your menu. Unless the Azure Dragon died one day? No, impossible! Even if it did, you wouldn''t grill the Azure Dragon. Yes, that''s what you thought, right? However, listening to the Azure Dragon''s voice, it seemed quite robust. There shouldn''t be any problem; you figured the Azure Dragon was just suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder. Is that the right term? So, you didn''t ask further. You let it rest well. Then, you started licking your lips and chomping down on the Leviathan-Roc meat. Hmm, a bit tough, hard to chew, not as delicious as imagined! People without the Taotie Divine Body talent are not rmended to eat it! Finally, you made a foodie¡¯s conclusion about the Leviathan-Roc meat in your heart! Chapter 237: Finally see the World Gate [Although Leviathan-Roc meat isn''t particrly tasty, it is, after all, a half-Dao level fierce beast.] [Its flesh is brimming with energy and contains the power ofws.] [You didn''t waste it but continuously used the Taotie Divine Body to devour it.] [While devouring the Leviathan-Roc meat, you also used the Enlightenment Pill and the talent of Inevitable Enlightenment.] [From the Leviathan-Roc meat, youprehended the Law of Speed.] [Speed is an extreme form of swiftness.] [But what is the ultimate extreme?] [There isn''t an exact concept.] [Theoretically, nothing in the world has an ultimate limit, because beyond the limit, there is always another limit.][Thus, speed at its extreme could theoretically surpass time itself.] [In the state ofprehending the Law of Speed, you pondered deeply.] [You even synchronized your understanding of the Law of Speed with the Law of Time.] [You reached a conclusion.] [The power ofws doesn''t have a stronger or weaker.] [The so-called strongestws are merely those with a higher starting point.] [But the endpoint of allws is the same.] [This seems to be the so-called "all paths lead to the same destination, allws converge into one!"] [As you thought of this, it felt like a certain shackle was unlocked, and your cultivation instantly broke through to the nine-star Ancient God realm.] [No, it wasn''t over yet.] [Your cultivation continued to grow.] [Your cultivation only stoppedpletely at the peak of the nine-star Ancient God realm.] [Now, you are equivalent to the peak of a Quasi-Saint in the Immortal Dao, nearing the threshold of the Saint realm.] [Actually, the reason for such an improvement is that in that instant, youprehended the true essence ofws and touched the threshold of the Dao.] [The Dao is essentially about seeing through the essence of things and elevating the power of allws.] [In that instant, you already understood the essence ofws.] [As for elevating thews? You can''t do that yet.] [But as long as you see through the essence ofws, it means you already know the path of the Great Dao.] [No longer blindly advancing.] [Unknowingly, you have been in enlightenment for a hundred years.] [At this time, Azure Dragon''s injuries have long since healed.] [However, seeing you in enlightenment, it didn''t leave but stayed nearby to protect you.] [You slowly awaken and see Azure Dragon patrolling, and you express your heartfelt gratitude.] [During the enlightenment, you were still fully aware of the external situation.] [If you weren''t clear about the external situation, you wouldn''t dare to easily enter enlightenment.] [What if you were attacked during enlightenment?] [You dared to enter enlightenment freely because you could control it, knowing the external situation and ending it early if something was amiss.] [During these hundred years, you knew things indeed happened.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [This ind was visited by several waves of danger.] [But Azure Dragon dealt with them all.] [If Azure Dragon hadn''t been there, you would have had to end your enlightenment early.] [In that case, your improvement would have been much smaller.] [So, Azure Dragon''s protection indeed provided you with significant help.] [Azure Dragon saw your enlightenment end and knew you must have gained a lot.] [Thus, it issued a challenge to spar with you.] [Although it knew that in a life-and-death struggle, it couldn''t beat you.] [After all, during your battle with Leviathan-Roc, you showed what it meant to fight more fiercely the more injured you were!] [But a friendly match? It wanted to give it a try.] [Over the years, although it didn''t enter enlightenment, it also benefited greatly from the battle with Leviathan-Roc, and its strength improved significantly.] ? [It wanted to see the gap between you in a regr fight.] [One could say Azure Dragon is also someone who doesn''t easily admit defeat.] [So, with one punch, you knocked Azure Dragon down.] [Azure Dragon left with a dejected look.] [It vowed to train even harder.] [To challenge strong opponents like you did with Leviathan-Roc.] [That''s the way to improve faster.] [However, Azure Dragon seemed to have misunderstood something!] [You really didn''t intend to fight Leviathan-Roc.] [You were forced.] [Of course, you didn''t know Azure Dragon''s thoughts.] [If you did, well... you''d wish it good luck!] [After Azure Dragon left, you oriented yourself and continued to traverse deeper into the sea.] [Your goal remains the edge of this world, the World Gate!] [In the blink of an eye, another hundred years passed.] [You finally saw the edge of the world.] [But where is the World Gate?] [Where is the Divine Tortoise?] [You frowned slightly, reaching out to touch the world''s barrier.] [Hmm? Something''s wrong, you can pass through!] [You found that your hand easily passed through the world''s barrier without any hindrance.] [This waspletely different from the world''s barrier you encountered in previous simtions.] [It was beyond your understanding.] [After hesitating for a moment, you walked directly towards the world''s barrier.] [Instantly, your entire being passed through.] [Then, you witnessed an incredible scene.] [A gate, it truly was a gate!] [You saw a massive gate standing outside the world''s barrier.] [And in front of that giant gate, several fierce beasts were constantly ramming into it.] [Each time those fierce beasts struck, a tiny crack appeared on the giant gate.] [Upon closer inspection, you noticed several cracks already on the giant gate!] [Clearly, these were caused by the fierce beasts'' impacts.] [Observing from a distance, you also spotted the Divine Tortoise among those fierce beasts!] [Seeing this, you instantly understood what was happening.] [Indeed, the older, the wiser!] [No wonder it''s a Divine Tortoise that has lived for a billion years.] [It certainly knows what it''s doing.] [You knew the other fierce beasts were definitely summoned by the Divine Tortoise.] [Using the Chaos Heavy Pupil, you observed that each of these fierce beasts was at the half-Dao level.] [Simply unbelievable.] [At this moment, you were a bit curious about what method the Divine Tortoise used to summon so many powerful fierce beasts to help.] [Of course, you were more grateful.] [Grateful that you agreed to the Divine Tortoise''s terms back then, allowing it to destroy the World Gate.] [Didn''t you see, those dozens of half-Dao level fierce beasts, after ramming for who knows how many years, the gate was still standing firm?] [If you were to destroy it alone, it would be an impossible task!] [And your appearance was instantly sensed by those fierce beasts.] [Immediately, dozens of fierce beasts stared at you with unfriendly eyes.] [At this moment, the Divine Tortoise stepped forward, calming the fierce beasts, saying you were also a helper it called.] [Hearing this, the fierce beasts restrained themselves a bit, but the killing intent in their expressions didn''t diminish.] Chapter 238: The Divine Tortoises Plan! Feeling the killing intent from the fierce beasts, you are somewhat puzzled. "What¡¯s going on?" "The Divine Tortoise said we were allies, so why such strong killing intent?" "Could it be because the human race spreading the Dao might lead to a cleansing by the world''s master?" "But that shouldn''t be the case!" "Look, these fierce beasts show no signs of cultivating the Immortal Dao, Martial Dao, or even the Divine Dao!" "Even if the world''s masteres to cleanse, it shouldn''t concern them." "After all, the Divine Tortoise mentioned before that the cleansing by the world''s master mainly targets those who cultivate various Dao methods, both humans and beasts." "Of course, the key point is, these fierce beasts shouldn''t have lived as long as the Divine Tortoise!""They probably don''t even know about the world''s master." "Did the Divine Tortoise tell them?" "But what benefit would the Divine Tortoise gain by telling them this?" "Could it be that the Divine Tortoise used this reason to trick these fierce beasts into helping destroy the World Gate?" "But that still doesn''t make sense." "Since those fierce beasts haven''t cultivated Dao methods, it''s hard to use this reason to trick them into helping!" "I just can''t figure it out!" At this moment, the Divine Tortoise has already arrived in front of you. "Why are you here?" the Divine Tortoise begins tomunicate with you through telepathy. Clearly, there are some things it doesn''t want the fierce beasts to know. You instantly understand this and also respond using telepathy. ... After a brief exchange. You understand why those fierce beasts harbor killing intent towards you. No, it''s not just you they have killing intent towards. Upon closer observation, you''ll find that those fierce beasts also have strong killing intent towards each other. They¡¯re just suppressing it for now. As for the reason? It can only be said that it''s all thanks to the Divine Tortoise! ording to what the Divine Tortoise said, after it left the Divine Tortoise Tribe, it began searching for these half-Dao level fierce beasts. No, to be precise, the Divine Tortoise was looking for those fierce beasts whose lifespan was nearing its end but still possessed formidable strength! It just so happened that these fierce beasts all had half-Dao level strength. The Divine Tortoise told them it had discovered a new world. As long as they reached this new world, there would be a way to extend their lifespan. To make those fierce beasts believe, the Divine Tortoise even lied to them, saying it had lived so long because it had the fortune to enter the new world once, billions of years ago. ?? As for how to enter the new world? Simple, break the World Gate. This exins why those fierce beasts would attack the World Gate. As for why they have killing intent towards you and each other? Simple, because they all came to extend their lifespan. Even if the World Gate is broken, no matter what method is used to extend life, all these fierce beasts arepetitors. Your presence, in their eyes, is just one morepetitor. If they weren''t sure that relying on individual strength would make it difficult to break through the World Gate, Perhaps they would have already started taking each other out to eliminate potential rivals early on. Hearing this, you can''t help but admire: the Divine Tortoise really has a knack for deception!n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om Even after hearing what the Divine Tortoise said, you once doubted whether it had lied to you before; maybe what it told these fierce beasts was the truth. After all, the idea of a new world beyond the gate sounds more usible than the World Gate being a time coordinate. However, you feel there''s not much point in the Divine Tortoise lying to you! It only asked you to save the little tortoise, after all. There''s really no need to concoct such a big lie. After all, it didn''t really ask you to attack the World Gate. You came here purely out of curiosity. That''s why you believe the World Gate is indeed a time coordinate. Suddenly, you have a realization! No, even if the World Gate is a time coordinate, It doesn''t mean there isn''t a new world beyond it! Why can''t both be true? Thinking of this, your eyes suddenly light up. The more you think about it, the more likely it seems. After all, if there is a world''s master, and he is not in this world! Then the world''s master must have a ce to stay, right? So why can''t the area beyond the World Gate be considered a new world? A world that transcends this one? You look thoughtfully at the Divine Tortoise, wondering, "Does it know too?" No, even if it doesn''t know, it can surely guess! After all, from your interactions with the Divine Tortoise, you can see that it''s very clever. It can''t possibly not guess. Perhaps breaking the World Gate not only destroys the time coordinate, preventing the world''s master from easily locking onto this world''s timeline, But also allows people from this world to leave and enter a higher world! If that''s the case, it exins why the Divine Tortoise only asked you to take care of the little tortoise and then decisively agreed to attack the World Gate. Because, perhaps behind this gate is truly a brand new world. The Divine Tortoise previously mentioned that its lifespan is running out. It said that cultivation can extend life, but upon careful consideration, is that really possible? For fierce beasts with low strength, perhaps, but the Divine Tortoise is at the half-Dao level. Can it still easily extend its lifespan by cultivating the Immortal Dao now? It''s unlikely! So, does it want to go to a higher world to find a way to extend its life? Thinking of this, everything seems to make sense. The Divine Tortoise is truly cunning! It asked you to take care of its child, ensuring the little tortoise can survive. And it itself is taking a gamble, gathering a group of helpers to attack the World Gate. To go to a new world, seeking its own path to survival! The Divine Tortoise feels a bit uneasy under your gaze. It seems to know that you have already figured out its true intentions. So itmunicates to you, saying that although it has its own goals, it hasn''t lied to you. It says that cultivating the Immortal Dao, Martial Dao, and Divine Dao that you developed will indeed lead to cleansing, and that the World Gate is indeed a time coordinate! As for the world''s master, it says that''s just a name it came up with, but in its view, a power that transcends all beings, holding the power of life and death; calling it the world''s master is not an exaggeration! After saying this, the Divine Tortoise doesn''t exin further to you. Instead, it joins the group attacking the World Gate. Chapter 239: The World Gate has opened! After listening to the Divine Tortoise''s exnation, you didn''t dwell on it further. Whatever the Divine Tortoise''s intentions might be, and however the title "world''s master" came about, none of it really mattered to you. What mattered now was your desire to destroy the World Gate. After all, if the World Gate isn''t destroyed, the timeline can''t be disrupted, and the ck-robed man from the previous simtion might easily find your true form. In that case, you would be doomed. If you don''t want to die in reality, destroying the World Gate seems like your destined path. In reality, Jiang Yifeng sighed. "Ah, destiny!" He had felt this way for a long time.Since the first cross-time simtion, this feeling had be increasingly apparent. It seemed as if everything was predestined. He was like an executor, inadvertentlypleting a logical loop through the simtor. This simtion seemed to once again form a logical loop with the ck-robed man seeking him across time. But even though he realized this, he still couldn''t resist this feeling of destiny. After all, ording to his spection, if the simted him didn''t form this logical loop, the ck-robed man might appear before him in the next moment in reality and kill him! Of course, this was just spection for now. But the possibility was too great to gamble on. If he lost the bet, everything would be over. Of course, it also depended on what the simted him thought. After all, the real him couldn''t perform a deep simtion now. He could only be a spectator. Fortunately, the simted him shared the same thoughts! Jiang Yifeng had always had a doubt. Was this cross-time simtion really a simtion? Or was it something that had already happened, and he was just seeing someone''s memory? But now, he felt certain it wasn''t! The person in the simtion was himself. Otherwise, it wouldn''t be possible for everything to be in consideration for his true form. This was why the loop wasplete. Jiang Yifeng murmured, "Does fate really exist?" "Simtor, oh simtor, could you be fate itself?" The probe failed, and the simtor didn''t respond! In the end, Jiang Yifeng stopped thinking about it. Since he couldn''t resist, he might as well enjoy it. No, that''s not right! He should focus on improving his strength. Perhaps when he became stronger, he would see through it all. So, he continued to look at the simtor. After a brief thought, you joined the team attacking the World Gate. However, after a few attacks, you were chased away by a group of fierce beasts! They found you a nuisance. Yes, your strength was looked down upon. But because of this, the fierce beasts'' killing intent towards you also lessened. After all, the strength you just disyed wasn''t even considered apetitor to them. It could be said that the uninjured you and the injured you were indeed two different concepts. Previously, at the eighth level of the Ancient God realm, you could y a half-Dao level Leviathan-Roc. But now, at the ninth level of the Ancient God realm, you were despised by a group of half-Dao level fierce beasts for your low attack power. But thinking about it, it made sense. Previously, you could y the Leviathan-Roc because it was careless and fell for your Silent Destruction Fist that reversed time. ?? This greatly reduced the Leviathan-Roc''s strength, leaving it far from its peak state. And the result was due to you continuously getting injured and stacking the War God Body to enhance yourbat power!n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om But now, even though you''ve reached the ninth level of the Ancient God realm, ording to the Immortal Dao''s ssification, you''re only at the Quasi-Saint stage. Even though your Divine Dao training makes you stronger inbat. But your normal attacks are only at the peak Saint realm level. So, your attacks now are indeed insufficient in the eyes of those peak half-Dao level fierce beasts. In response, you could only shrug and stand honestly to the side! After all, your Silent Destruction Fist that reverses time is useless against the World Gate. Nor could you self-harm to temporarily boost yourbat power. However, this situation made you even more aware of the terrifying nature of the War God Art. It''s practically a divine-level technique for fighting across levels! The Silent Destruction Fist can break limits to perform a method that reverses time, reducing the opponent''s strength. And the War God Body allows you to be braver the more you fight, the more injured you are, the stronger you be. As for the Sword of Killing Intent? This thing can deliver a fatal blow when emotions explode. Of course, you haven''t personally experienced the Sword of Killing Intent, but from the previous simtion where the Little White Tiger, with initial Saint realm strength, yed a half-Dao level, you can tell it''s also very powerful! At this moment, you''re increasingly curious about the origins of the War God Art. Where did the simtor get it from? Or was it created by your "past life"? But do you really have a past life? ording to these repeated cross-time simtions, you''re bing more uncertain! Time quietly passed as you indulged in wild thoughts. In the blink of an eye, five hundred years. The fierce beasts were still diligently attacking the World Gate. And you? Apart from cultivating every day, you were lost in thought. You wanted to help, but the fierce beasts found you a nuisance! Actually, you thought about leaving, but with the World Gate not destroyed, you weren''t at ease. That''s why you stayed here. As for self-harming to trigger the War God Body to attack the World Gate? Don''t be ridiculous! So many half-Dao level fierce beasts have been attacking for hundreds of years and still haven''t destroyed the gate. Even if you self-harmed to trigger the War God Body to attack, it wouldn''t make much of a difference. Why bother suffering for nothing! One day, during the fierce beasts'' attack, the World Gate suddenly emitted a "creak, creak, creak" sound! Your eyes lit up, was it finally going to seed? Not only you, but the fierce beasts were also extremely excited. Finally, they were going to seed, finally going to a new world. They had a chance to extend their lives! But was that really the case? No, it wasn''t! Just as everyone was excited. The World Gate suddenly opened! Yes, not shattered, not destroyed, but opened normally. The scenery outside the gate was fully revealed before you all! If a void could be considered a scenery. After a brief moment of daze! Then the fierce beasts reacted. Their goal was simply to leave through this gate, no matter how it opened. As long as they could get out. So, all the fierce beasts swarmed towards the void outside the World Gate. Only you and the Divine Tortoise looked displeased. Because you both knew, the gate couldn''t have opened for no reason. There was a high possibility that the "world''s master" the Divine Tortoise mentioned had arrived! Chapter 240: Innate Demon God: Universe "If that''s the case, it''s going to be hard for all of you to survive." "Although the Divine Tortoise still hasn''t cultivated any Dao techniques." "However, its action of attacking the World Gate has clearly cut off its own retreat." "Soon, you see a ck-robed figure suddenly materialize outside the once-empty gate!" "The moment this figure appears, the fierce beasts that had rushed out earlier all meet a tragic end." "Those half-Dao level fierce beasts stand no chance against the ck-robed figure." "And at this moment, the Divine Tortoise seems to have made a decision, charging directly at the World Gate." "The ck-robed man notices but doesn''t care about the Divine Tortoise." "A mere half-Dao level, what can it possibly do?""The ck-robed man''s gaze is fixed on you!" "He senses a strong force of causality from you." "It seems to be rted to him, but he can''t quite figure out why." "After all, he doesn''t know you, right?" "Meanwhile, waves of shock surge in your heart!" "It''s really the ck-robed man." "But why doesn''t he attack you?" "What does he mean by just watching you?" "Suddenly, you remember your new talent, the Chaos Heavy Pupil!" "You quickly use this talent to check the ck-robed man''s information." "Name: Yu! Realm: Supreme God; (A young Innate Demon God with formidable power!)" "Summary: If you be enemies with him now, think carefully about how you want to die, to make it look a bit better." "Innate Demon God? Supreme God?" You are startled! "What is an Innate Demon God?" "You don''t have a precise concept, but you know it must be a very powerful race." "And a Supreme God?" "This must be a division of the Divine Dao realm!" "This is the first time, apart from the disciples you taught, that you''ve seen someone else cultivating the Divine Dao." "You ponder, could the causality of the Divine Dao be because this Innate Demon God cultivates this path, so others are forbidden to?" "Suddenly, many thoughts flood your mind..." "As for that summary at the end?" "Hah, do you need a summary? Everyone cultivates the Divine Dao, and he''s three major realms above you." "There''s no need to think about it, you definitely can''t win!" "And just as you and the Innate Demon God ''Yu'' lock eyes, the Divine Tortoise has already reached the World Gate." "However, the Divine Tortoise doesn''t rush out of the gate." "Instead, it stands at the World Gate, grinning at you." "Then, you hear a ''boom''!" "The Divine Tortoise self-destructs." "At this moment, you understand the Divine Tortoise''s intention." "It wants to destroy the World Gate through self-destruction." "A half-Dao level self-destruction! The power is extraordinary." "The World Gate, already covered in cracks, is instantly half-destroyed." "Unfortunately, that''s all it could do." "The Divine Tortoise is dead." "But its goal wasn''t achieved." "Because, even with only half remaining, the World Gate still stands." "And the Innate Demon God ''Yu'' is now enraged." "He didn''t expect anyone to dare destroy the World Gate right in front of him." "The World Gate is their portal to control this world." "If the World Gate has issues, it will be extremely troublesometer." "So, he no longer cares about why there''s causality between you and him." "Now he just wants to kill everyone and then repair the World Gate." "But at this moment, another loud noise erupts!" "You self-destruct!" "In your self-destruction, the remaining half of the World Gate ispletely destroyed." "You are dead." "This simtion ends!" "You can exchange for two rewards from this simtion." "Chaos Heavy Pupil (Talent), cultivation, simtion memory!" "Chaos Heavy Pupil (Talent): Price 1000 origin values." "Cultivation: Price 10 million origin values." (Nine-star Ancient God realm peak,prehended severalws, perfected War God Body, advanced version of Silent Destruction Fist ''Reverse Time''...) "Simtion memory: Price 10 million origin values. (Note: Special reward for cross-time simtion)" Looking at the end of the simtion. Jiang Yifeng remained silent for a long time. He didn''t expect to really see the ck-robed man in this simtion. But is this ck-robed man the same one he saw in previous simtions? Not quite. After all, ording to the simtion, this time the ck-robed man ''Yu'' seems not to recognize him. What is going on? Jiang Yifeng thought about how the Chaos Heavy Pupil specifically marked ''Yu''s information, showing him as a young Chaos Demon God! Could this be the ck-robed man in his youth? So during this simtion, he didn''t recognize him yet? No, that''s not right! If that''s the case, the previous spection that the ck-robed man was his "past life''s" enemy wouldn''t hold. Unless the previous assumption was wrong. The ck-robed man was never his past life''s enemy. He was his own enemy. Or perhaps, he has no past life. Everything is a result of the simtion? Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng felt enveloped in a fog again. Finally, he shook his head and stopped thinking. He''ll look into itter! First, choose the rewards. "Choose Chaos Heavy Pupil (Talent) and cultivation!" There''s no hesitation in this reward choice. Although the simtion memory is good. But the cultivation improvement this time is significant, he must take the cultivation. As for the talent? This talent that can see through the Supreme God realm must be taken! After all, information is too important. Seeing through the enemy''s strength allows better decisions on whether to fight, flee, or self-destruct. For instance, in this simtion, being able to destroy the World Gate, Jiang Yifeng felt the Chaos Heavy Pupil yed a big role. If he hadn''t seen through ''Yu''s strength and realized there was no chance at all. He wouldn''t have been so decisive in self-destructing in the simtion. If he hesitated, once ''Yu'' reacted, there might not have been a chance to self-destruct and destroy the World Gate. After Jiang Yifeng made his choice, the simtor''s prompt sounded timely! "Ding, congrattions to the host for acquiring the talent ''Chaos Heavy Pupil'', deducting 1000 origin values, remaining origin values." "Ding, cultivation extraction sessful, deducting 10 million origin values, remaining origin values." Jiang Yifeng still felt nothing from acquiring the talent. But this time, the cultivation enhancement took a while. It took a full half-hour.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om Once the power was fully absorbed. Jiang Yifeng could clearly feel the change in his strength. At this moment, he finally felt a sense of security. Based on his performance in the simtion, with fullbat power, he could already y half-Dao level beings. Even if his real-worldbat experience is less, he should still be able to contend with half-Dao level, right? After all, in thest simtion, he chose simtion memory, gaining quite a bit ofbat experience. With this strength, the Immortal Realm can no longer threaten him, right? No, not just the Immortal Realm, it seems there''s nothing in reality that can threaten him anymore. ording to previous simtions, even if the world were to end, only some half-Dao level experts would appear. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng felt a bit more rxed. He smiled slightly, murmuring to himself, "Finally, I''ve made it through!" Chapter 241: Perform ordinary simulation again Jiang Yifeng felt that there were only two dangers at present. The first was the ck-robed man who was searching for him across multiple timelines. However, since this cross-time simtion had destroyed the World Gate, it wouldn''t be easy for that ck-robed man, whether he was the Innate Demon God "Yu" or not, to find him in reality. The second was the crisis of world destruction a thousand years from now. But Jiang Yifeng wasn''t worried about this crisis. After all, there''s still a thousand years to go! That''s enough time for him to simte countless times. So far, he had only conducted 30 normal simtions and two cross-time simtions, with only 231 days passing in reality. (The first time granted 3 simtions, equating to 27 times 7 for 189 days of normal simtion time! Plus 3 times 7 times 2 equals 42 days of cross-time simtion time!)In less than a year in reality, he had simted to the nine-star Ancient God realm. A thousand yearster? What kind of power would he possess then? Even he couldn''t imagine. So, this crisis was essentially nonexistent! It shouldn''t pose any threat to him. Afterward, he stopped thinking about these matters and stretchedzily as he walked towards the door. Before long, Jiang Yifeng arrived beside the time eleration formation. He watched his father Jiang Fushan and Little Peach cultivating within the formation. He didn''t disturb them but instead used the Chaos Heavy Pupil. Although he had previously used the Eye of Insight to look at his father Jiang Fushan and Little Peach''s information, Jiang Yifeng felt it wasn''t urate. His father only showed the talent of an Innate Dao Body.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om And Little Peach? Her talent didn''t even show up. Now with the Chaos Heavy Pupil, he could finally see why they were cultivating so quickly. Could Little Peach be Peach? [Name: Jiang Fushan.] [Realm: Foundation Establishment Ninth Level.] [Talent: Innate Dao Body (Note: A physique that harmonizes with spiritual energy,parable to a Divine Spiritual Root!)] [Summary: The reincarnation of a certain powerful being; extremely fast cultivation speed, formidablebat strength.] Through the Chaos Heavy Pupil, Jiang Yifeng first saw his father Jiang Fushan''s information. As expected, it was more detailed than what the Eye of Insight had shown. It even noted the reincarnation aspect. Clearly, his previous guess was correct. Then, Jiang Yifeng turned his gaze to Little Peach. [Name: Little Peach.] [Realm: Foundation Establishment Eighth Level.] [Talent: Divine Spiritual Root (Fragmented), Mortal Body.] [Summary: She seems to have a big secret!] Seeing Little Peach''s information, Jiang Yifeng''s pupils contracted slightly. Now he was almost certain that Little Peach was indeed Peach! Her cultivation wasn''t as fast as his father''s. Was it because her Divine Spiritual Root was fragmented? But why was it like this? Could it be that in her past life, Peach experienced some battle? Did it damage her spiritual root? So, in this reincarnation, Peach''s spiritual root was iplete? He couldn''t guess, but Jiang Yifeng felt this was the most likely possibility. As for the final summary? Jiang Yifeng thought it might be because the Chaos Heavy Pupil wasn''t advanced enough. It couldn''t see through the secrets on Little Peach. After all, in the simtion, Little Peach''s "past life" had shown abilities that transcended time. Clearly, it was beyond Dao-level capabilities. After all, three hundred million years ago, even those Dao-level experts couldn''t easily transcend time. So, it was normal for the orange talent Chaos Heavy Pupil to not see through Little Peach''s origins! After obtaining the answers he wanted, Jiang Yifeng didn''t disturb their cultivation. He turned and left directly. In the following days, he didn''t get carried away by his strength to settle scores with the Immortal Realm. He just went to the Immortal Arrival Sect, gathered some resources, and exchanged them for tens of millions of origin values. At this point, his origin values were back to around 80 million. Then he continued to stay at the Jiang Family Mansion, waiting for the next simtion. Seven days passed in the blink of an eye. The simtion count umted to one! At this moment, Jiang Yifeng was in his room, looking at the simtor. He fell into deep thought. Should he conduct a normal simtion? If he did a normal simtion, he should be able to sweep through the Immortal Realm, right? At that time, would using the world''s resources for cultivation be faster? But then he thought, if he did a normal simtion, it could only simte for about a thousand years at most. After all, from previous simtions, it was clear that the world would inevitably be destroyed in about a thousand years. "Never mind, at most it''s just a wasted simtion opportunity!" After pondering for a long time, Jiang Yifeng decided to conduct a normal simtion. After all, in the current timeline, there were many things he didn''t quite understand. For instance, his mother Su Mushuang, whom he had never met, he still didn''t know where she was hiding. And when he carried Absolute Rationality and had murderous intent towards his father Jiang Fushan, he was warned. Who was the person who warned him? Of course, Jiang Yifeng thought that person might be Su Mushuang. But it still needed confirmation. Also, what was the secret in that ancientnd where Shen Wutian was located? Why could it iste the control and observation of the Saint realm? And so on... These things could be understood through normal simtion? Of course, he had thought about investigating directly in reality. But he decided to y it safe! With the simtor, even though his current strength was almost invincible in the present world. But better safe than sorry. What if there were things the simtor hadn''t shown before? After making the decision, Jiang Yifeng silently recited. "Start simtion!" [Consume 1 simtion count, remaining count 0] [Ding, do you want to spend 1000 origin values to randomly draw a talent?] "Yes!" [Talent drawing in progress, deducting 1000 origin values, remaining origin values.] [Congrattions to the host for obtaining the purple talent: Thousand Faces.] [Thousand Faces]: You can transform into the appearance of anyone, indistinguishable from the real one! (Note: Those with a realm higher than yours can see through your disguise.) [Obtained one-time talent: Spirit Endowment!] [Spirit Endowment]: Can give birth to intelligence in an inanimate object. (Limited to one use!) "???" Looking at this talent, Jiang Yifeng was puzzled. What''s going on? Has his luck run out? Why are the talents so useless this time? A disguise talent, is this even useful? But with his current strength, does he still need to disguise? A normal simtion should be a sweep, right? The key is that those higher than his realm can easily see through it. It''s useless! As for the one-time talent? This Spirit Endowment? Does it make him create a toy? "Forget it, forget it!" In the end, Jiang Yifeng muttered. It doesn''t matter, since the talents are useless, this simtion will just focus on improving cultivation and maybe supplementing with some alchemy or formation skills! As he was daydreaming, the simtor''s prompt continued. [Talent Pool: Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root, Cmity Tribtion Body, Absolute Rationality!] [Do you want to choose one to carry into the simtion?] "No!" After Jiang Yifeng made his choice, the simtion officially began. [The 33rd simtion begins!] Chapter 242: Return to the ancient relics! [You realize you''ve entered the simtion.] [On the first day, you immediately release your Divine Sense, covering the entire Southern Regions.] [With your current strength at the nine-star Ancient God realm, you can easily use your Divine Sense to survey the entire Southern Regions!] [The purpose of doing this is to see where your mother, Su Mushuang, is hiding.] [You also want to see if the voice that warned you earlier was Su Mushuang or someone else.] [Moreover, you want to uncover the secrets of the ancientnd where Shen Wutian is hiding.] [However, despite your good intentions, the results are not ideal.] [Your Divine Sense has scanned everything in the Southern Regions.] [But you haven''t found Su Mushuang!][Nor can you locate the ancientnd where Shen Wutian resides.] [This makes you frown slightly.] [You sigh inwardly: It seems I underestimated the situation!] [But upon reflection, it''s understandable.] [The ancientnd where Shen Wutian resides can shield itself from the probing of Saint-level beings.] [And Su Mushuang has been hiding in the Southern Regions without being discovered by any Saint realm experts.] [Although yourbat ability is strong, thanks to the practical advantages of the Divine Dao and War God Art,] [Your actual probing ability might not even match that of the Saint realm!] [After all,pared to the Immortal Dao, your current cultivation is merely at the peak of a Quasi-Saint level.] [You shake your head and murmur, "Forget it, I''ll personally patrol the Southern Regions in the future!"] [Even though Divine Sense can''t uncover everything, you believe that by personally traversing the Southern Regions, you might discover something.] [Using Divine Sense forrge-scale probingcks detail, after all.] [By personally inspecting the Southern Regions, you can also use your Chaos Heavy Pupil talent in conjunction.] [Indeed, your Chaos Heavy Pupil cannot be used on arge scale with Divine Sense.] [Otherwise, with the ability of the Chaos Heavy Pupil, you would definitely find something.] [With this thought, you retract your Divine Sense!] [Although thisrge-scale use of Divine Sense didn''t reveal Su Mushuang or the ancientnd of Shen Wutian,] [You did note away empty-handed.] [You discovered something interesting.] [For instance, Wu Youdao?] [He''s still busy eliminating bandits!] [However, you notice that the murderous intent around him has be very intense!] [Signs of awakening are evident.] [And the Immortal Dao inheritance that appeared in previous simtions?] [You find that the inheritance is now located tens of thousands of meters beneath the Jiang Family Mansion!] [If it weren''t for deliberately probing the entire Southern Regions, you wouldn''t have noticed.] [It seems this inheritance is indeed a backup left by your father.] [Besides these, there''s nothing else rted to you.] [So you don''t pay much attention.] [Although there isn''t much useful information,] [You''ve roughly concluded that the person who warned you earlier is most likely Su Mushuang.] [After all, you didn''t detect any other high-level beings in the Southern Regions.] [As for the possibility of someone beyond the Saint level evading your detection?] [That''s unrealistic, because in previous simtions, when the Southern Regions were destroyed, only Su Mushuang and your father escaped.] [If there were other Saint realm beings, the previous simtion should have detected them!] [Thus, it can be concluded that the person who warned you in the previous simtion could only be Su Mushuang.] [She must have been keeping an eye on your father.] [She might even be watching the Jiang Family Mansion now.] [It''s just that her way of hiding is very clever.] [You can''t detect her.] [At this moment, you inwardly exim, "What a relief."] [Fortunately, you didn''t unt yourself in reality before.] [If Su Mushuang can evade your detection, then it''s possible other Saint realm experts can do the same.] [Even though you can defeat Saint realm beings now, if you are too conspicuous, and they hide, you won''t be able to find them!] [You''d also worry about them ambushing your father and others.] [Indeed, it''s better to be cautious!] [Since you haven''t obtained much useful information,] [You don''t n to stay long at the Jiang Family Mansion.] [On the second day, you annihte the Immortal Arrival Sect, sparing only Qiu Zhishuang and his grandfather.] [You think to yourself: This is to make up for the losses in the previous simtion!] [On the third day, you arrive at Spine Mountain.] [You look at the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya.] [With a wave of your hand, you repair it.] [You absorb all the Heavenly Thunder beneath Spine Mountain.] [In fact, whether the formation is repaired or not is no longer important.] [Because now, if the Immortal Realm dares to send Heavenly Thunder, you dare to fight back.] [You came here just in passing, to resolve a lingering obsession in your heart.] [On the fourth day, you arrive at the Desert of Death.] [Heading straight for the ancientnd where Shen Wutian is located.] [Compared to probing Su Mushuang''s whereabouts,] [This ce is a secret you find more worth exploring.] [You want to know why this ce can shield itself from the perception of Saint realm experts.] [You easily pass through the ancient teleportation formation, arriving at the ancientnd; also the headquarters of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [As soon as you appear, you are stopped by several experts of the Immortal Arrival Sect at the Fifth Layer of Tribtion.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [They ask you to show proof.] [But you have nothing to show!] [So, you raise your hand.] ["Bang, bang," a few sounds.] [Those experts at the Tribtion Crossing Realm from the Immortal Arrival Sect instantly lie t.] [With no one to hinder you, you begin to carefully sense the peculiarities of this ancientnd.] [Soon after, you notice a slight anomaly!] [You murmur, "Thews here seem a bit strange, as if they differ from the outside world!"] [Your understanding of thews is profound now.] [Even if thews here differ slightly from the outside world, you can still sense it.] [But why is it like this?] [Could it be that thews of ancient times differ from the present world?] [But that doesn''t make sense; when you did a cross-time simtion to a billion years ago, why didn''t you sense this?] [You are puzzled!] [However, you think that perhaps it''s precisely because of thews here that Saint realm experts from the outside world cannot probe this ce.] [Afterward, you spend some time exploring this ancientnd.] [You want to see if there are any other secrets here.] [But you are disappointed again.] [Besides the peculiarws, there seem to be no other hidden secrets.] [But thinking about it, it''s normal. If there were any real secrets, why wouldn''t the Saint realm experts from the Immortal Realm be interested?] [Perhaps those Saint realm experts have already checked this ce.] [It''s just because there are no secrets other than the peculiarws that they leave it alone!] [However, you don''t give up.] [You feel that this ce shouldn''t be so simple.] [You sigh lightly, "It seems I still need to find Shen Wutian."] [You think that if there really are secrets here, Shen Wutian would surely know.] [Even though he only has Quasi-Saint level strength, he''s been cultivating here for millions of years; he probably knows every grain of sand here.] [Previously, you didn''t directly seek him out, fearing that Shen Wutian wouldn''t tell you.] [He might even destroy the secrets here upon knowing you''re investigating.] [After all, Shen Wutian is a bit crazy!] [He could do anything.] [But now it seems, to quickly learn the specifics of this ce, you have to meet Shen Wutian.] Chapter 243: Shen Wutians talent! [You stroked your chin, pondering how to meet Shen Wutian!] [In your mind, there are actually two ns.] [First: Charge straight in and knock Shen Wutian down with one punch; then extract information through torture!] [Second: Use your talent "Thousand Faces" to disguise yourself as one of Shen Wutian''s subordinates to gather information!] [The first n is obviously quicker and more straightforward!] [The downside is, Shen Wutian might fight to the death and refuse to talk!] [In that case, you wouldn''t have any good options.] [You sighed inwardly, "It''s a pity I can''t directly probe Shen Wutian''s memories!"] [In fact, you do know some simple soul-searching techniques.][However, these techniques are very basic.] [They work well for probing the memories of lower-level cultivators.] [But for someone like Shen Wutian, a Quasi-Saint, even if you''re stronger, it wouldn''t work.] [The level of soul-searching techniques isn''t high enough.] [To probe the memories of someone at the Quasi-Saint level, you''d need to use Time Reversal or manipte the power of causality to trace back!] [Right now, you don''t have that kind of power.] [And the second n?] [After much consideration, you directly dismissed it.] [Impersonating Shen Wutian''s subordinate seems more reliable and likely to yield information.] [But recalling the previous simtions, Shen Wutian treated his subordinates as mere blood sacrifices to enhance his cultivation.] [Would he share secrets with such subordinates?] [Obviously not!] [In that case, you''ll have to capture Shen Wutian first and extract information through torture.] [Thinking of this, you smirked, letting out a sinisterugh.] [Various tortures shed through your mind.] [You murmured, "Shen Wutian, Shen Wutian, you devoured me in the simtion, so it''s not too much for me to use some torture on you!"] [Meanwhile, inside the headquarters of the Immortal Arrival Sect, Shen Wutian suddenly felt a chill down his spine.] [He looked up at the sky, murmuring, "Have those Saints remembered me?"] [Clearly, Shen Wutian misunderstood.] [He thought it was the Saints from the Immortal Realm wanting to control him again!] [Actually, Shen Wutian''s special sense of perception.] [Isn''t because he''s powerful.] [It''s an innate talent of his.] [He named this talent: Omen Sense!] [That''s right, this talent not only allows him to sense danger but also good fortune.] [It''s this talent that has allowed him to live by hiding until now.] [Whether before bing the sect master of the Immortal Arrival Sect or after, Shen Wutian has faced numerous dangers.] [Before bing the sect master, Shen Wutian was just an ordinary cultivator in the Southern Regions.] [He didn''t have Mo Jingtian''s strength or Lu Wuya''s Formation Dao.]n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [He couldn''t even withstand those non-lethal ordinary Heavenly Thunders back then.] [Surviving and achieving sess in cultivation relied on this talent.] [After bing the sect master, Shen Wutian was always controlled by Saint realm beings, his life not his own.] [His ability to barely regain his sense of self owes much to this innate talent!] [Now, sensing danger again, Shen Wutian felt uneasy.] [He pondered ways to break the situation.] [But he couldn''t figure it out.] [Those Saints hadn''t paid attention to him for hundreds of thousands of years.] [Why would they suddenly remember him?] [Meanwhile, you didn''t dy any longer.] [You had already decided on the tortures to wee Shen Wutian.] [So, you unleashed your aura fully; with one step, you arrived at the headquarters of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [It took less than a second.] [Of course, that''s also because this ancient remnant isn''t veryrge.] [If you hadn''t deliberately suppressed your aura earlier, Shen Wutian might have sensed you.] [Unbeknownst to you, Shen Wutian, although unable to sense your location, did sense danger with his special talent.] [Arriving at the headquarters, you sniffed lightly, murmuring, "Such a strong scent of blood!"] [You felt something was off.] [So, you released your Divine Sense, enveloping the entire headquarters.] [The moment you released your Divine Sense, you discovered a figure in a secret chamber of the Immortal Arrival Sect, continuously devouring Tribtion Crossing cultivators!] £Ò? [Seeing this, there''s no doubt in your mind that it''s Shen Wutian.] [But you were puzzled about what Shen Wutian was doing.] [Weren''t those Tribtion Crossing cultivators kept for his breakthrough to the Saint realm?] [Could he be breaking through?] [It shouldn''t be! Where did he find a Divine Dao seed?] [From previous simtions, you knew Shen Wutian''s dark arts required a Divine Dao cultivator as a catalyst to break through to the Saint realm.] [In fact, you were right.] [Shen Wutian was indeed attempting a breakthrough.] [And indeed, he didn''t have a Divine Dao seed.] [After his talent sensed potential danger.] [He decided to take a risk.] [Attempting to directly devour the Tribtion Crossing cultivators he had nurtured to force a breakthrough.] [But you didn''t know any of this.] [Seeing Shen Wutian devouring Tribtion Crossing cultivators, you didn''t hesitate and acted decisively.] [Even if he seeded in breaking through, you wouldn''t fear him.] [But why take the risk when you can solve it early!] [With a loud "bang," the secret chamber where Shen Wutian was located was obliterated.] [Shen Wutian was half-dead from your punch.] [Small Quasi-Saint realm, easily handled!] [Shen Wutiany on the ground, covered in blood, looking at you.] [Instantly, he was bewildered!] ["Who are you?"] [He was sure he hadn''t seen you before; you weren''t one of those Saint realm beings controlling him.] [But since you didn''t know each other, and there was no enmity, why were you causing him trouble?] [Could you be a righteous person?] [Disgusted by his cultivation with human lives?] [...] [Shen Wutian''s mind raced with possibilities!] [In any case, he now knew his earlier Omen Sense had led him astray.] [His crisis came from you, not the Saints of the Immortal Realm.] [As Shen Wutian was lost in thought, you had already walked up to him.] Chapter 244: Fool Shen Wutian! You look at Shen Wutian lying on the ground, saying nothing, just giving a sinisterugh. You directly crippled his Qi Sea, causing his cultivation to drop by more than half. That''s right, it only dropped by arge margin, notpletely destroyed. In fact, after reaching the Immortal Realm, cultivators all cultivate the power of the Primordial Spirit. Even if the Qi Sea is destroyed, it will only cause their cultivation to fall. It won''tpletely turn them into mortals. After all, the power of the Primordial Spirit remains. And at the level of a Quasi-Saint, they haveprehended a significant amount of the power ofws. Destroying the Qi Sea has little impact.Topletely cripple someone of high cultivation is actually more difficult than killing them! However, you had no better method. If you directly destroyed the Primordial Spirit, Shen Wutian would die instantly. As for why you destroyed Shen Wutian''s Qi Sea, reducing his strength? Of course, it was... heh heh heh, to torture him! But before that, you set up an istion formation around him! The purpose of this formation is solely to iste the power ofws. Preventing Shen Wutian from using thews of heaven and earth to resist! Afterpleting everything, you give a strange smile. While applying the power ofws to the half-crippled Shen Wutian, you murmur to yourself. "First, roast the lower half with the Law of Fire, then freeze the upper half with the Law of Ice; let''s create an ice and fire double heaven!" Soon after, Shen Wutian''s upper body was encased in ice, while his lower body was charred! Shen Wutian looked at your actions, utterly confused. Is this torture? Who are you looking down on? Of course, he was more puzzled about who you really were. What exactly do you want? Are you insane? Without saying anything, you beat him up, then crippled his Qi Sea, and now you''re doing this "punishment." At this moment, you look at Shen Wutian and slightly frown. How can he endure so much? You have isted his ability to use the power ofws from the heavens and earth. Although Shen Wutian practices Dark Arts, which is considered a pseudo-Divine Dao. He doesn''t have much power ofws within him and still needs to borrow it from the heavens and earth. Knowing this, you set up the istion formation. In addition, you crippled Shen Wutian''s Qi Sea, greatly reducing his strength. Unexpectedly, he can endure so much. You must know, what you used was not ordinary fire and ice, but the power ofws. And Shen Wutian had no way to usews to resist. One must admit, he''s a tough one! Since that''s the case, let''s increase the intensity. Unknowingly, half a month passed. Afterward, you used the Law of Chaos, Killing Intent Erosion, and the Law of Destruction on Shen Wutian... You controlled the intensity well, as long as Shen Wutian didn''t die, it was fine. Shen Wutian was tormented to the extreme, but he never uttered a sound. You look at Shen Wutian''s trembling body. Instead of continuing the torture, you say, "I have a method to help you break through to the Saint realm, in exchange for the secrets of this ce!" In fact, when you saw Shen Wutian forcibly breaking through, you thought of using this reason to exchange for his information. As for the previous torture? Just friendlymunication! You believe Shen Wutian won''t hold a grudge. After all, in the previous simtion, he wanted to devour your cultivation, and you didn''t hold a grudge either. Hearing your words, Shen Wutian''s eyes flickered, then became obscure; he chuckled lightly and said, "There are no secrets here!" As for there being no secrets? Heh, who are you trying to fool? You saw the odd look in Shen Wutian''s eyes. His eyes clearly showed a moment of abnormality. Along with his light chuckle. The meaning was clear, there are secrets here, but he doesn''t believe you have a way to help him break through to the Saint realm! You stare at Shen Wutian and say, "Watch closely!" Instantly, you release your Nascent Soul, revealing the unusual Divine Dao Nascent Soul before Shen Wutian. Then, you continue, "This Divine Dao Nascent Soul, you recognize it, right? I have cultivated to my current strength through the Divine Dao; naturally, I understand the Divine Dao better than you." At this moment, Shen Wutian''s expression bes visibly excited. You are actually a Divine Dao cultivator. That''s right, due to this simtion, your strength is greater than Shen Wutian''s, so he didn''t realize you were a Divine Dao cultivator before. It wasn''t until now, when you revealed your Divine Dao Nascent Soul, that he knew. Seeing Shen Wutian''s change in emotion, you continue to persuade, "Exchange the secrets of this ce for my Divine Dao method; you will definitely be able to break through!" Originally, you thought this would surely seed. But Shen Wutian didn''t y by the rules. He stared at you, sneering, "Heh, the orthodox Divine Dao is justbining Martial Dao and Immortal Dao, the only difficulty is to refine a twelfth-grade Golden Core before Core Formation." "Once you miss this opportunity, you have no fate with the Divine Dao."n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om "Unless you practice Dark Arts and seize the Nascent Soul of a true Divine Dao cultivator for your own use!" After speaking, Shen Wutian looked at you mockingly. As if to say: with your little tricks, you want to fool me? You were shocked by Shen Wutian''s words. You didn''t expect he really understood orthodox Divine Dao. Isn''t it said that the current Divine Dao has been lost? At this moment, although you are shocked, you don''t show it on the surface. Instead, you calmly look at Shen Wuyou and say, "Which mediocre teacher taught you?" "If the Divine Dao were so simple, why would it be lost? Why is no one cultivating the Divine Dao now?" At the end, you chuckle lightly. Returning a disdainful look to Shen Wutian. As soon as your words fell, Shen Wutian was stunned. He felt that what you said seemed to make some sense. If the Divine Dao were really so simple, it shouldn''t have been lost. Although the twelfth-grade Golden Core is difficult, the world is never short of Chosen, surely someone could achieve it! Could it be that the ancient texts he saw were wrong? This time, you really fooled Shen Wutian. Of course, you actually used the information gap. The inability to cultivate the Divine Dao is due to the Divine Dao''s karma! You know that if you used this information gap to fool a Saint realm in the Immortal Realm, it might not work so well. Because they might have channels to know this information. But Shen Wutian doesn''t. He''s just a native of the Southern Regions! Even if he was controlled by a Saint realm expert from the Immortal Realm and became the sect master of the Immortal Arrival Sect. The ces he could stay were limited to this ancient remnant. The information he knows is very limited. After a long time, Shen Wutian raised his head, looked at you, and said, "Give me the Divine Dao method first." Shen Wutian is indeed Shen Wutian. Even though he believed most of it, he still wanted to hold something back. You slightly furrow your brows. Comining in your heart, "So troublesome!" What should you do? Suddenly, a light bulb goes off in your head, got it! Anyway, Shen Wutian doesn''t know what the Divine Dao is, might as well make something up. Hmm, can''t make it too outrageous. You keep calcting in your mind. And seeing you not answering for a long time, Shen Wutian doesn''t urge you. In his view, it''s normal for you to need to think. If you agreed immediately, it would be untrustworthy. After all, that would be the strongest Divine Dao cultivation method. Unbeknownst to you, your unintentional actions made Shen Wutian trust you a bit more! Chapter 245: Hard! The fist is hard! [Time passed slowly, moment by moment.] Suddenly, you seemed to have thought of something! Looking at Shen Wutian, you said, "To show my sincerity, I can first tell you the key to the Divine Dao." "As for the specific method, that will require you to show your sincerity." Shen Wutian nodded at your words, "Reasonable!" He felt that this kind of bargaining was how a transaction should be. However, he didn''t know that you actually hadn''t figured out how to create a Divine Dao technique. After all, the Divine Dao you practiced didn''t have any special techniques. That''s why you thought of using some information Shen Wutian didn''t know to bluff him.Of course, you definitely wouldn''t reveal this. "Ahem!" You cleared your throat and stared at Shen Wutian, saying, "Do you think the key to the Divine Dao is a twelve-grade Core Formation? An unusual Nascent Soul?" Shen Wutian looked at you in confusion, not replying, waiting for you to continue. Seeing this, you muttered in your heart, "Boring, doesn''t cooperate at all!" Shen Wutian didn''t cooperate, but your performance didn''t stop. Instead, you sneered, "Ha,pletely wrong!" Then, with a wave of your hand, you summoned a ball of golden chaotic energy from your Qi Sea. Holding the chaotic energy in your hand, you continued to speak to Shen Wutian, "This is the key to the Divine Dao, the core of the Divine Dao!" "Only by cultivating this chaotic energy can one truly be considered practicing the Divine Dao!" Shen Wutian looked at the chaotic energy in your hand. He could feel that it was different from the spiritual energy of the Immortal Dao and the primordial energy of the Martial Dao. It was a higher form of energy. At this moment, hepletely believed your words. He thought that the Ancient Texts he obtained might really be something a fraud used to deceive people. But if that''s the case, doesn''t it mean that the im in the Ancient Texts that the Divine Dao can help him devourws and break through to higher realms is also false? Thinking of this, Shen Wutian''s expression darkened a bit. From the beginning, he wanted to practice the Divine Dao not because it was powerful, but because his own cultivation talent had reached a bottleneck. He couldn''t break through to the Saint realm. He wanted to practice the Divine Dao because he learned from the Ancient Texts that the Divine Dao could forcibly devourws to achieve a breakthrough. In essence, Shen Wutian''s goal was always pure. He just wanted to break through andpletely escape the control of the Saint realm powerhouses of the Immortal Realm. Of course, the Martial Dao could also forcibly devourws. But Shen Wutian had already experimented with that. Thews devoured by the Martial Dao couldn''t integrate with the insights of the Immortal Dao. It couldn''t help him break through. And his talent in the Martial Dao was only average. He couldn''t match Saint realm powerhouses with the Martial Dao. That''s why he wanted to practice the Divine Dao. But now, your words made him think that the Ancient Texts he obtained were wrong. Doesn''t that also prove that the im about the Divine Dao forcibly devouringws is false? For a moment, Shen Wutian''s interest in the Divine Dao diminished greatly. He appeared somewhat dejected! You observed Shen Wutian''s change. In fact, you roughly understood Shen Wutian''s thoughts. From the previous simtions, it was clear that Shen Wutian''s intentions were straightforward. He just wanted to use the dark arts of the Divine Dao to break through and escape control. Now, you have denied his previous understanding of the Divine Dao. It''s only natural for him to feel that he can''t break through with the Divine Dao. And this is exactly what you wanted to see. Without first shaking his confidence, how could you better deceive him? After all, only those who doubt themselves are the easiest to deceive. At this moment, it''s best to leave Shen Wutian hanging for a while; then give him hope with your deceptive tactics. It would surely be twice the result with half the effort! However, you didn''t do that. Because Shen Wutian is not a fool, he might be confused for a while. It''s just that he''s too afraid of those Saint realm beings in the Immortal Realm and too eager to escape control. Eventually, he will definitely realize the truth. Once he knows he''s being misled by you, it will be difficult to deceive him then. So, you struck while the iron was hot and continued, "As long as you cultivate this chaotic energy, you can easily break through realms." "Thosews will all be food for this chaotic energy." After speaking, you directly drew a wisp of the power ofws from the void and devoured it. Your demeanor suggested that the ability to devour the power ofws was entirely due to the chaotic energy. But is that really the case? Of course not! The Divine Dao''s ability to devour the power ofws is merely because the physical body is strong enough to withstand the erosion of thews. This is the same as the Martial Dao. You forcibly attributed this ability to the chaotic energy. Only in this way could you better deceive Shen Wutian. As for being seen through? That''s impossible. The wisp of the power ofws you just drew was very weak, incapable of affecting you. As long as you don''t reveal anything, whatever you say goes. To put it bluntly, you''re just taking advantage of Shen Wutian''sck of experience with a real Divine Dao cultivator. And you have to admit, you seeded. The previously dejected Shen Wutian''s eyes lit up after seeing you devour a wisp of the power ofws. He murmured to himself, "The Divine Dao really can devourws!" It seemed that the Ancient Texts on the Divine Dao he obtained weren''t entirely useless. Although they didn''t mention chaotic energy, they did correctly state the ability to devour the power ofws. At this moment, he felt that the Ancient Texts he obtained might not be fake, just iplete. That''s why there was no record of chaotic energy. However, none of that mattered now. With you, a genuine Divine Dao cultivator here, as long as he could get the real Divine Dao texts from you, he still had a chance to break through using the Divine Dao. In an instant, Shen Wutian thought of many things. Finally, he smiled and said to you, "The secret of this ce is known only to me, but I can''t tell you until I''ve cultivated the Divine Dao." Tough, his resolve was tough! Hearing Shen Wutian''s words, you couldn''t help but clench your fists. You had racked your brains to deceive him for so long. And this is the result?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om Seeing your expression change, Shen Wutian quickly continued, "I can''t tell you the real secret now, but I can show you a few things I found here!" With that, Shen Wutian took out a wooden box from his storage ring. Hearing this, you slowly unclenched your fists. Muttering to yourself, "Hold it in, hold it in, don''t be impulsive!" "Wait until you get the secret, then beat him up!" However, after waiting for a long time, Shen Wutian still hadn''t handed over the wooden box to you. "Come on, just give it to me!" "Don''t force me to get rough!" Unconsciously, you felt your fists clenching again. You felt that Shen Wutian was simply testing the limits of your patience! Chapter 246: Two Bamboo Slips At that moment, Shen Wutian finally spoke again, "Exchange it for your Divine Dao cultivation method!" Seeing your troubled expression, Shen Wutian continued to up the ante. He said, at the very least, you must exchange half of your Divine Dao cultivation method for the wooden box in his hand. If you''re unwilling, then the deal is off. Finally, he added, if you want to use force? Then it will be a fight to the death. After all, the wooden box doesn''t contain the key secret of this ce. At worst, he''ll die with the true secret of this ce. That way, you''ll never know the secret here.Shen Wutian was also quite helpless. Unable to defeat you, he could only threaten you this way! You frowned slightly. This Shen Wutian was really troublesome. Maybe just punch him to death? In the end, you held back your impulsive thoughts. You told Shen Wutian, "The Divine Dao isn''t actually difficult. Once you understand its principles, it''s easy; to cultivate chaotic energy, just merge spiritual energy with primordial energy." After speaking, you even demonstrated it once. After finishing the demonstration, you extended your hand, signaling Shen Wutian to hand over the wooden box. Shen Wutian felt something was off. Could the Divine Dao really be this simple? But you operated right under his nose. It seemed impossible to fake. Could it really just be an information barrier? Those who don''t understand find it difficult, but the reality is this simple? It must be so. Shen Wutian convinced himself. So, he directly handed the wooden box to you. Of course, he thought about going back on his word. But your fists were bigger, so he didn''t dare. You exchanged smiles, both satisfied! Afterward, Shen Wutian began to repair his Qi Sea. He wanted to study the fusion of spiritual energy and primordial energy after repairing his Qi Sea. Actually, there was one thing you didn''t lie to Shen Wutian about. Chaotic energy is indeed the key to the strength of the Divine Dao. If someone truly transformed all the spiritual energy in their Qi Sea into chaotic energy, they might really cultivate a Pseudo-Divine Dao. Yes, a being withbat power close to the Divine Dao. After all, this higher-level energy, chaotic energy, can make attacks stronger and physical defense tougher. However, you did hide one crucial piece of information. That is, chaotic energy cannot be directly absorbed. Even if Shen Wutian could merge chaotic energy outside his body, he couldn''t absorb it into his body to cultivate a Pseudo-Divine Dao. As for merging spiritual energy and primordial energy into chaotic energy inside the body? Heh, that''s impossible. For those not cultivating the Divine Dao, spiritual energy and primordial energy are like two parallel lines that never meet. If spiritual energy and primordial energy can''t even touch, how can they merge? Only those cultivating the Divine Dao can use the characteristics of a Twelfth-grade Golden Core to intersect primordial energy and spiritual energy. Only then can they merge chaotic energy within their body. You could say, in this round of confrontation, you had a slight victory. But this also left a hidden danger. Once Shen Wutian repairs his Qi Sea, he might easily discover that you tricked him. At that time, it might make Shen Wutian even more reluctant to reveal the secret of this ce. However, since you dared to do this. You naturally have a way to deal with it. You''re not worried about him discovering the issue. Right now, you''re more interested in what''s inside this wooden box. Shen Wutian said it was discovered in this ancient relic. And exchanging it for your "Divine Dao manual" should have some significance! You open the wooden box. Inside are two rolls of yellowed bamboo slips. "Bamboo slips?" you murmur with a slight frown. Not many people use these. Although this world is a cultivation civilization, it actually has paper. With paper avable, who would still use bamboo slips? It seems these really are relics from ancient times. Judging by the preservation, the bamboo slips are in good condition, with no damage. It seems to be something quite important. This piques your curiosity about the contents of the bamboo slips. You slowly open the first bamboo slip. But as soon as you see the first character, something feels off. The handwriting seems somewhat familiar. You frown and continue reading. But after just two lines. Your pupils start to contract. Damn, it''s the Devouring Spirit Art. Realizing it''s the Devouring Spirit Art, you look at the handwriting on the bamboo slip again. A wry smile appears on your lips. No wonder the handwriting seemed familiar. Turns out, it was written by you. That''s right, you already know this must be the bamboo slip you left behind. As for when? You think it must have been during thest simtion, ten billion years ago. At that time, you were spreading your teachings everywhere. Leaving behind manuals and techniques isn''t surprising. Of course, this is all your deduction, as you didn''t choose to retain memories in thest simtion. But you believe this deduction is correct. You calm your emotions. And continue reading the bamboo slip! Not long after, you finish reading the first bamboo slip. Overall, the bamboo slip records the cultivation method of the Devouring Spirit Art, the introductory body refining method of the War God Art, and experiences on how to refine a Golden Core and cultivate the Divine Dao. ? The War God Art section doesn''t include the Silent Destruction Fist, War God Body, or Sword of Killing Intent, those battle techniques. Thinking about it, it makes sense, as in thest simtion, ten billion years ago. You seem to have only taught those techniques to Peach. So, this bamboo slip can be ruled out as something left by Peach. Suddenly, you think of a question. There''s a high chance Shen Wutian learned about the Divine Dao from the bamboo slip you left behind. And this bamboo slip was left by you in thest simtion! So, the "mediocre teacher" you cursed before was actually yourself? Forget it, it''s not important! Cursing is cursing. Are you going to beat yourself up? You gather your thoughts and focus on the second bamboo slip. You have a hunch that this bamboo slip might reveal some secrets to you. You open the bamboo slip and start reading. The more you read, the deeper your frown bes. Dark Arts! This is a tant Dark Art. You finally understand where Shen Wutian''s Divine Dao Dark Art came from.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om It''s from this bamboo slip. It records numerous experimental processes. Including plundering the blood essence of Divine Dao cultivators, seizing their Primordial Spirit... Until finally, it shows seizing the Nascent Soul of Divine Dao cultivators, then using the blood essence of countless cultivators'' vengeful spirits to corrode it, forcibly cultivating the Divine Dao after the Core Formation stage. It''s unimaginable how many cultivators'' lives were sacrificed to develop this Dark Art. For a moment, you feel a surge of anger. Until you see the signature at the end of the bamboo slip: Jiang Erbao! Instantly, the mes of anger in your heart rise even higher, and you can''t help but shout in fury, "You beast!" Chapter 247: Azure Flood Dragon Tribe" site [As your furious shout echoes, the headquarters of the Immortal Arrival Sect begins to copse on arge scale.] [Shen Wutian, who had just managed to repair a trace of his Qi Sea, finds it damaged once again!] [Indeed, in that moment of anger, you instinctively unleashed the power ofws.] [Now, Shen Wutian looks at you with an innocent expression, too afraid to speak.] [Is repairing the Qi Sea that easy?] [Yet with just one shout, you interrupted him again.] [Besides, Shen Wutian is somewhat fearful.] [He thinks you might really have some serious issues.] [Isn''t it just a book of Dark Arts?][Didn''t you just see him use it?] [Back then, although you tormented him, you didn''t show such intense anger.] [So why now do you look like you''re ready to strike him down?] [What''s going on?] [Shen Wutian feels you''re unpredictable, so he quickly shrinks back, trying to lower his presence.] [Meanwhile, you gradually calm down.] [No, something''s not right.] [Why did Er Bao create this Divine Dao Dark Art?] [You remember Er Bao had a talent for the Divine Dao.] [And in thest simtion, it seemed he almost became the strongest among the human race.] [This indirectly proves he mastered the Divine Dao.] [Otherwise, such achievements would be impossible.] [Trying to be the strongest among those cultivating the Divine Dao using the Immortal Dao is unrealistic!] [Since Er Bao mastered the Divine Dao, his creation of this Divine Dao Dark Art seems particrly unreasonable.] [It seems that after yourst simtion ended, something else happened.] [Did Er Bao''s Divine Dao cultivation be useless? Unable to re-cultivate the Divine Dao, did he resort to creating this Dark Art?] [Or is there another hidden reason?] [With too little information, you can''t make a conclusion yet.] [Finally, you shake your head and stop thinking about it.] [No matter what, you know you''re just in a simtion, and you probably won''t uncover the truth about Er Bao this time; it''s better to leave it to your real self to consider!] In reality, Jiang Yifeng lets out a lightugh as he reads this. Finding out what happened is too simple. Just simte once or twice more along the timeline of thest cross-time simtion, and you should get the answer! Now he''s pondering whether, if he sees Er Bao creating this Divine Dao Dark Art again in a cross-time simtion, he should intervene to stop it. What would be the consequences if he intervened? If he interferes, it would be like changing history, right? Can he bear the karma involved? But if he really sees Er Bao creating that Dark Art, can he hold back from stopping it? Jiang Yifeng thinks carefully about this issue. He probably can! As long as Er Bao isn''t using Peach for experiments, with others, although he might feel reluctant, it seems he can control his impulses. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng feels relieved. In that case, there''s no problem. In the future, find an opportunity to simte cross-time again, and the truth will be revealed. If his strength is strong enough to bear the karma of changing history, he''ll stop Er Bao. If he can''t bear it, then forget it. When he''s strong enough, he''ll change everything! Having figured it out, Jiang Yifeng continues to look at the simtor. [Calmed down, you no longer ponder why Er Bao created the Divine Dao Dark Art.] [Instead, you start analyzing the current situation.] [Since the items left by Er Bao are in this ancient relic.] [Doesn''t it prove that this was once the location of the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe?] [You keep pondering.] [Gradually, you think of the dragon egg in the Desert of Death.] [If this is the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe, then not far from here, the Desert of Death.] [Could it have been the great river where the Azure Dragon once lived?] [Only the river dried up, turning into the Desert of Death?] [The distance and location; they basically match!] [The more you think about it, the more likely it seems.] [If so, wouldn''t it prove that the dragon egg in the Desert of Death is the one left by the Azure Dragon?] [But there''s one thing that''s still strange.] [If the spection is correct.] [Why isn''t the Desert of Death called the ancient relic?] [Could it be because the Desert of Death doesn''t have uniquews?] [Thinking of this, you suddenly realize.] [You feel like you might have been misled before!] [You always thought the ancient relic was just a piece ofnd left from ancient times.] [But thinking carefully, which piece ofnd in the present world isn''t a reassembled piece from ancient times?] [The reason this ce is called the ancient relic might not be because this area was preserved from ancient times.] [But because this ce is so special, withws different from the outside world; that''s why people in the present call it the ancient relic.] [You feel this is the correct understanding.] [With this spection, you be even more curious about this ce.] [What kind of secrets are hidden here.] [That make thews different from the outside world?] [Moreover, you subconsciously feel a sense of familiarity with this ce.] [If this was the location of the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe a billion years ago, wouldn''t it count as a return to an old haunt?] [Afterward, you don''t dy any longer and directly grab Shen Wutian, who is repairing his Qi Sea.] [Shen Wutian looks at you, wanting to cry but having no tears.] ["I just repaired a little bit of my Qi Sea, and it''s broken again."] [You ignore Shen Wutian''s gaze and directly ask him about the secrets of this ce.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [You''re not nning to continue ying games.] [Naturally, Shen Wutian refuses to answer.] [To this, you don''t say much.] [You directly grab Shen Wutian and head out of the ancient relic.] [Seeing this, Shen Wutian is shocked and quickly shouts, "No!"] [He can''t leave here; once he does, he''ll be controlled by the Saint realm experts of the Immortal Realm!] [You naturally know these things.] [However, you don''t want to continue ying mind games with Shen Wutian, so you must show absolute strength.] [Let Shen Wutian know that even if he can''t cultivate the Divine Dao, you can still help him break free from the control of those Saint realm experts in the Immortal Realm.] [By killing those Saints who can control him, that''s all!] [As for why you didn''t do this before?] [No special reason, just that your brain hasn''t been used for too long, and you wanted to see if it had rusted!] [Of course, the key is that you feel this simtion doesn''t have much pressure.] [You can afford to be reckless.] [That''s why you chose to show off!] [Otherwise, you''d probably just want to find a ce to hide, not even thinking about using your brain.] Chapter 248: Surprising appearance of the World Gate [Originally, you had nned to face those Saint realm experts of the Immortal Realm directly, to show Shen Wutian a trick or two in exchange for the secrets he knew.] [But things developed in an unexpected way.] [You hadn''t even taken Shen Wutian out of the ancient relic.] [Shen Wutian started shouting that he was willing to tell you the secrets of this ce; as long as you didn''t take him out of the ancient relic!] [Hearing this, you stopped in your tracks.] [You looked at Shen Wutian with a face full of suspicion.] [It was hard to believe.] [The Shen Wutian who originally wouldn''t reveal secrets even in the face of death was now willing to speak so easily.] [It didn''t make sense, right?][Could it be that the control of those Saint realm experts from the Immortal Realm is more terrifying than death?] [Suddenly, you recalled the scene when you tortured Shen Wutian before.] [His calm demeanor seemed ustomed, even numb.] [You suddenly thought, could it be that the control of those Saint realm experts from the Immortal Realm included some kind of torture?] [Is that why he was indifferent when you punished him before?] [Because he had experienced something even more brutal?] [For a moment, you thought of many things.] [Of course, these are just your spections; you don''t know the real situation.] [One thing is certain, though, when Shen Wutian was under the control of the Saint realm experts from the Immortal Realm, it was miserable.] [Miserable enough to make someone unafraid of life and death fear experiencing it again, to feel terror!] [However, those Saints from the Immortal Realm now let Shen Wutian roam free in the ancient relic, temporarily escaping control.] [This proves that those Saints don''t care aboutpletely controlling him.] [After all, if they really cared, they coulde here themselves and take Shen Wutian away.] [This ancient ce, although it can block probing and control, cannot stop the Saints from entering directly.] [Thus, it can be seen that what the Saints of the Immortal Realm want is just the normal operation of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [As for Shen Wutian?] [He is dispensable!] [You think that even if Shen Wutian were to leave the ancient relic now, it might not be a big problem.] [Such a simple truth, could Shen Wutian really not think of it?] [No, he can think of it!] [But he is still afraid, too scared to act.] [You think Shen Wutian might be trapped in his own inner demons.] [Suddenly, you feel a bit of sympathy for Shen Wutian.] [Who would have thought that such a ruthless person would be yed by the Saints of the Immortal Realm like this.] [If it weren''t for the forced control by those Saint realm experts from the Immortal Realm, perhaps he wouldn''t have practiced Dark Arts.] [Perhaps he would have been a spirited Chosen!] [Your sympathysted for about two seconds.] [Then you grabbed Shen Wutian, threatening him to quickly reveal the secrets of this ce.] [Otherwise, you would throw him out of the ancient relic; let him be controlled by the Saints of the Immortal Realm again.] [Afterwards, under Shen Wutian''s guidance, you arrived at a hidden building at the headquarters of the Immortal Arrival Sect.] [You looked at the building and frowned slightly.] [You had scanned this building with your Divine Sense before.] [And hadn''t sensed anything particrly unusual.] [Could it be that Shen Wutian was trying to y tricks before?] [Unlikely, right?] [After pondering for a moment, you followed Shen Wutian into the building.] [Any conspiracy or trick is worthless in the face of absolute power.] [You now possess this absolute power.] [Not worried at all, right!] [After entering the building, Shen Wutian operated something and opened a secret passage.] [You weren''t surprised by this.] [You had discovered this secret passage before.] [Moreover, you knew this passage was very long, extending tens of thousands of meters underground.] [Could there be something else hidden in this passage?] [Soon, you and Shen Wutian reached the end of the passage.] [At this moment, you werepletely baffled.] [There''s nothing here, where''s the secret?] [Just then, Shen Wutian pointed to a wall not far away and said, "There''s a space inside, but I can''t open it!"] ["I guess the secret is in there."] [Hearing this, you were also stunned.] [So Shen Wutian didn''t know the real secret of this ce either.] [He only knew there was a secret here, but couldn''t open the wall.] [But how did he know there was space behind that wall?] [You should know, even with your Divine Sense, you hadn''t discovered any space behind the wall.] [Soon, you understood the reason.] [Shen Wutian walked to the wall and punched it.] [With a "thud," a resonant sound echoed.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [The sound was wrong.] [The wall behind was hollow.] [What kind of principle is this?] [Using the most primitive method could detect it, but Divine Sense couldn''t.] [And why couldn''t even a Quasi-Saint like Shen Wutian break this seemingly ordinary wall?] [It seems there really is a big secret here!] [You didn''t directly break the wall with force.] [Instead, you walked up to the wall and carefully observed it.] [After a long time, you noticed something amiss.] [This didn''t seem to be just a wall.] [You swung your fist, shaking off all the dirt around the wall.] [Then, you saw a giant door appear before you.] [A door, it was actually a giant door!] [Suddenly, you recalled the World Gate destroyed in thest simtion.] ["No, it can''t be!"] [At this moment, you were a bit startled.] [The more you thought about it, the more likely it seemed.] [Although you didn''t know why there was a "World Gate" here.] [But the special power ofws in this ce could be exined.] [Because after you revealed the entire giant door, you could already sense an unusual power ofws seeping in from outside.] [This seeping power ofws was very weak.] [If you weren''t right in front of the giant door, it would be hard to sense.] [Suddenly, you also thought, if this is the "World Gate," then why didn''t it appear when the Southern Regions were destroyed?] [Can the Saint realm break this gate?] [No, that''s not right, the destruction of the Southern Regions was never said to beplete annihtion, but fragmentation!] [This gate buried deep underground might not have been destroyed!] [You kept pondering.] [You think there''s an eighty percent chance this is the World Gate!] [However, if that''s the case, then things getplicated!] [Was it during the ancient times that the World Gate wasn''t destroyed?] [But that doesn''t make sense either, the location is wrong!] [The World Gate was outside the world barrier.] [And this gate is in the ancient ce suspected to be the "Azure Flood Dragon Tribe" ruins.] [Could it be that every timeline has a World Gate?] [But if that''s the case, then why did destroying the World Gate from ten billion years ago disrupt space? Preventing the ck-robed man from urately tracking you?] ? [Could the information from the Divine Tortoise be wrong?] [But through previous simtions, it was already known that the ck-robed man indeed couldn''t lock onto you.] [Your thoughts were quite chaotic at this moment.] Chapter 249: That one call of Mom! In reality, Jiang Yifeng was also shocked. At this moment, he was caught in a whirlwind of thoughts.N?v(el)B\\jnn After a long time. Jiang Yifeng suddenly murmured, "No, I can''t hold onto wishful thinking!" What if the information from the Divine Tortoise was wrong? Of course, he didn''t think the Divine Tortoise was deceiving him. The Divine Tortoise had already self-destructed to destroy the World Gate from a billion years ago. The likelihood of it deliberately lying was low. But what if the information the Divine Tortoise originally heard was incorrect?That wasn''t impossible either. Moreover, Jiang Yifeng also considered. Could it be that the ck-robed man couldn''t locate him because he knew there was a "World Gate" in reality? And he had already shattered it? That didn''t seem impossible either. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng''s eyes sharpened. Better safe than sorry. No matter what, he had to destroy this World Gate in reality. But how could he destroy it? From thest simtion, he could tell the strength of the "World Gate." It seemed he couldn''t ck off; he needed to simte more diligently and enhance his strength. However, it would be best to test the strength of this "World Gate" in the simtion. He decided that if his simted self didn''t attack the World Gate, he would conduct a deep simtion. But there was no rush for now. The gate wasn''t going anywhere. With this in mind, Jiang Yifeng continued to look at the simtor! [After a long time, your expression turned serious.] [You felt that no matter what, the World Gate had to be destroyed.] [So, you unleashed your full aura and struck the "World Gate" with all your might!] ["Boom!" A loud noise echoed!] [The entire ancient relic began to tremble.] [Not long after, the "World Gate," originally buried deep underground, now stood towering in the void.] [It appeared quite abrupt.] [Indeed, your punch had lowered the surroundingnd by a hundred thousand meters.] [That''s why the "World Gate" stood abruptly in the void.] [Because the surroundingnd was all gone!] [At this moment, you looked at the giant gate standing in the void with a solemn expression.] [Although that punch had overturned the ground by over a hundred thousand meters, it only left a small crack on the giant gate.] [This made you even more certain that this was the "World Gate."] [But knowing it was the World Gate, how could you destroy it?] [In thest simtion, the Divine Tortoise had summoned several half-Dao level fierce beasts to attack it for hundreds of years, yet they couldn''t break the World Gate.] [At this moment, Shen Wutian was somewhat dumbfounded.] [He knew you were strong, but he didn''t expect you to be this strong.] [The power of that punch just now seemed stronger than those Saint realm experts in the Immortal Realm!] [Besides, that punch seemed to have alerted some uninvited guests.] [Although this ce was isted from detection, the power of that strike was equivalent to the half-Dao level of the Immortal Dao.] [Such amotion couldn''t bepletely isted here.] [Soon, two figures appeared in this ancient relic.] [No, it was three!] [Two people walked together, and another came alone, hiding well.] [If you hadn''t used the Chaos Heavy Pupil to scan the surroundings, you might not have noticed.] [You looked at the two figures walking together in the void and, without saying a word, attacked directly.] [You had already learned about these two through the Chaos Heavy Pupil.] [They were Saint realm experts from the Immortal Realm.] [They were also the ones controlling Shen Wutian.] [Of course, you didn''t attack to help Shen Wutian.] [You simply found the people from the Immortal Realm unpleasant.] [Two ordinary Saint realm experts couldn''t stir up any waves in your hands.] [In less than a minute, the two of themy on the ground like dead dogs.] [The Saint realm expert hiding in the dark saw this and tried to sneak away.] [At this moment, you looked in her direction and softly said, "Should I call you Saint Su, or... Mother?"] [The Saint realm expert who had hidden herself was Su Mushuang.] [Upon hearing your voice, Su Mushuang knew she had been discovered by you.] [Her expression was somewhatplicated, and she didn''t run anymore.] [She merely sighed inwardly, "It''s not time yet!"] [You didn''t know what Su Mushuang was thinking.] [At this moment, you looked at Su Mushuang, and your expression was alsoplicated.] [Originally, you had a lot of questions you wanted to ask, but suddenly you didn''t know how to begin.] [In the end, you pointed at the two Saint realm experts lying on the ground and said to Su Mushuang, "Help me control them!"] [Indeed, you hadn''t killed those two Saint realm experts from the Immortal Realm.] [You had only severely injured them!] [Su Mushuang heard this and, without asking much, directly used her magic to control the two Saint realm experts.] [She even generously handed over the control technique to you.] [After everything was done, you and your mother stood facing each other in silence.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng felt himself being impacted once again. What did Su Mushuang mean by "it''s not time yet"? Could she know about his simtor? Right, she didn''t seem surprised to see he had the power to suppress Saint realm experts. She might really know. But how could that be? No, this won''t do! He had to find out the reason. With this thought, Jiang Yifeng didn''t hesitate. He directly murmured, "Start a one-month deep simtion!" [Ding, starting a one-month deep simtion, deducting 720 origin values, remaining origin values.] Instantly, Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness entered the simtion. At this moment, he didn''t look at the ruins caused by his simted self''s punch. Instead, he focused on Su Mushuang in front of him. The questions he originally wanted to ask suddenly couldn''t be voiced. He personally felt the conflict in the simtion just now. This woman had watched him die multiple times in simtions. But it seemed all because of his previous instructions in the simtions. Yet now, it seemed there was another reason. Jiang Yifeng was deeply conflicted. After a long time, all his words condensed into one sentence: "Mom!" No matter what, it seemed she hadn''t done it on purpose. In the end, Jiang Yifeng called her that. Suddenly, Su Mushuang''s tears flowed freely. How many years had she longed for this word? Yet, due to various reasons, she couldn''t be with her child, couldn''t even acknowledge him! Jiang Yifeng instinctively reached out to wipe the tears from Su Mushuang''s cheeks. And this gesture made Su Mushuang''s tears flow even more uncontrobly. The two of them stood quietly in ce, for a long, long time! Chapter 250: Su Mushuangs anomaly! As Jiang Yifeng and Su Mushuang sat in silence, a loud "bang!" echoed from nearby. Their eyes were naturally drawn to the source of the sound. Feeling their gaze, Shen Wutian wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and spoke with some trepidation. "Uh, it wasn''t intentional, you two carry on!" Jiang Yifeng looked at Shen Wutian, his mouth twitching slightly. It was clear. Who would intentionally blow up their Qi Sea for fun? Indeed, just as Jiang Yifeng and Su Mushuang were sharing an emotional moment, Shen Wutian, having nothing else to do and not daring to leave for fear of Jiang Yifeng''s disapproval, was left to repair his shattered Qi Sea. Yet, perhaps due to sheer bad luck, despite once being at the Quasi-Saint level, he made a mistake while repairing it!Jiang Yifeng paid no further attention to Shen Wutian and turned back to Su Mushuang. The mood had already passed. He didn''t dwell on it and directly transmitted his voice to Su Mushuang. "Why did you leave my father and me? Are you hiding some secret?" Jiang Yifeng didn''t directly mention the simtor but asked indirectly. This way, even if his guess was wrong, the existence of the simtor wouldn''t be exposed. Su Mushuang nodded in response. She did know some secrets. It was precisely because of these secrets that she was forced to leave. Seeing her nod in acknowledgment, Jiang Yifeng continued to press her through voice transmission. "What exactly is the secret?" "It''s..." Just as Su Mushuang was about to speak, she suddenly realized she couldn''t recall the secret. How could this be? She distinctly remembered knowing a certain secret. And it was because of that secret she left her husband and child. Otherwise, what woman would willingly leave her child and the one she loves? But what was that secret? Why couldn''t she remember? "What is it?" Jiang Yifeng''s voice echoed again in Su Mushuang''s mind. "Yes, what is it?" "What is the secret I know?" Su Mushuang murmured to herself, her eyes gradually losing focus. She began to doubt herself. Could it be there was no secret? Was it all just her imagination? "No, that''s not it." "There is a secret." "But what exactly is it?" Suddenly, Su Mushuang''s aura became chaotic, and she seemed to be on the verge of madness. Jiang Yifeng was startled by this. From the earlier interaction, he could clearly sense that Su Mushuang was ready to confess to him. Now, it seemed she had suddenly lost her memory? Why was this happening? However, there was no time for Jiang Yifeng to ponder further. Su Mushuang was losing control and could be dangerous. He had no choice but to forcibly restrain her and continuouslyfort her. He stopped pressing about the secret. Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Su Mushuang''s emotions finally stabilized. But she hadpletely forgotten about the secret. Even when Jiang Yifeng asked her again if she knew any secrets, she just shook her head, indicating she knew nothing. As for why she left Jiang Fushan and Jiang Yifeng? She imed she never left. Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng furrowed his brows deeply. He could sense that Su Mushuang wasn''t lying. In her eyes, it seemed that was the truth. "It seems some force is forcibly intervening!" Jiang Yifeng murmured to himself. From the current situation, it seemed Su Mushuang had been imnted with a memory in her mind. All clues from her had been severed. This result was something Jiang Yifeng hadn''t anticipated at all. This deep simtion aimed to uncover Su Mushuang''s secret had failed. Jiang Yifeng wondered if the information Su Mushuang knew was indeed about the simtor. Thus, she couldn''t speak of it. After all, he himself couldn''t speak of the simtor during simtions.N?v(el)B\\jnn Although he simply couldn''t speak, rather than losing memory, the result seemed simr. But thinking more, it still didn''t make sense. If the simtor couldn''t be spoken of, how would Su Mushuang know about it? What secret did she know? This question seemed to remain a mystery for now! "No, that''s not right!" "It feels like I''ve forgotten something?" Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng remembered another person. A sister who had always lived with Su Mushuang, Jiang Ruxuan. Perhaps she knew something. With this thought, Jiang Yifeng didn''t hesitate and directly asked Su Mushuang about his sister, Jiang Ruxuan. "Feng''er, what are you talking about? You don''t have a sister." Su Mushuang''s words dashed Jiang Yifeng''s hopes once again. Her memory loss was indeed thorough. To make her feel logically consistent, the fact that she had a daughter waspletely erased. Knowing that it was difficult to get any information from Su Mushuang, Jiang Yifeng didn''t ask further. Instead, he sent Su Mushuang back to the Jiang Family Mansion to reunite with his father, Jiang Fushan. As for Su Mushuang''s belief that she had never left the Jiang Family Mansion, Jiang Yifeng briefly exined the situation to his father. To this, Jiang Fushan waved it off, indicating he didn''t mind and would cooperate with Su Mushuang''s act. After handling everything, Jiang Yifeng once again used his Divine Sense to cover the entire Southern Regions. Since he couldn''t rely on Su Mushuang, he wanted to see if he could personally find Jiang Ruxuan. He thought that since Su Mushuang had returned, Jiang Ruxuan should be unable to evade his search. The key was that he didn''t know what his sister looked like. And Divine Sense couldn''t provide personal information. He could only rely on intuition to search. Jiang Yifeng focused on girls who appeared to be between 18 and 20 years old, had cultivation, and were alone. Once he detected such a target, he would personally go and confirm with his Chaos Heavy Pupil. However, despite his efforts, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t find anyone fitting the criteria. No, wait, there was one! At the Spring Blossom Pavilion. But that was his old acquaintance, Qiu Zhixuan. In fact, this situation was normal. After all, in this simtion, the Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect were mostly wiped out. And the people from Spine Mountain mostly lived together. Now, apart from the people from Spine Mountain, the only other cultivators in the Southern Regions were Qiu Zhixuan and Qiu Kuang. For some unknown reason, Qiu Kuang wasn''t with Qiu Zhixuan. That''s why Jiang Yifeng''s Divine Sense only detected one person fitting the criteria. Otherwise, there wouldn''t have been any. Clearly, Jiang Ruxuan was hiding well. She could evade his Divine Sense. Of course, Jiang Yifeng also knew. All of this might have been a method left by Su Mushuang. But now that Su Mushuang had forgotten she had a daughter, getting information from her was impossible. Though he thought this way, Jiang Yifeng still tried. He asked Su Mushuang if she had any means to block the Divine Sense of someone at the Saint realm. Su Mushuang didn''t hide anything and mentioned several methods. Some involved using natural terrain. Some used formations. There were even methods involving treasures. After listening, Jiang Yifeng furrowed his brows tightly. He could now confirm that Jiang Ruxuan was using a treasure to evade his Divine Sense. After all, during his previous search, he hadn''t found any of the terrains Su Mushuang mentioned. As for formations? He himself was a Sixth-grade Immortal Formation Master. If a formation was used, no matter how high-grade, he should have sensed something. This made things difficult. Chapter 251: Exploring Mystic Turtle information again! In the end, Jiang Yifeng let out a sigh. Muttering to himself, "Looks like I''ll have to conduct a carpet search!"n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om "However, the time for deep simtion is definitely not enough!" "Forget it, I''ll leave a message for my simted self to handle it!" Since he couldn''t find Jiang Ruxuan for the time being, Jiang Yifeng didn''t want to waste the time of this deep simtion. Thus, he returned once again to the ancient relic. Focusing his attention on studying the "World Gate"! He memorized the size and every pattern of this World Gate. As for why he did this?He thought, if every timeline has a World Gate. Would they be the same? Or would there be differences? Now that he has noted down the World Gate of this timeline. When he encounters the World Gate again in other simtions or in reality. He would have a clear understanding. In his view, if the World Gates are exactly the same. It might mean there''s only one World Gate. The simtion from a billion years ago didn''tpletely destroy that gate. Of course, it could also mean it was destroyed but was repaired by "Yu". After all, that simtion mentioned that the Innate Demon God "Yu" had a way to repair the half-destroyed World Gate. So perhaps apletely destroyed World Gate could also be repaired. And if the World Gates are not exactly the same. It would confirm that each timeline has a different World Gate. In that case, the World Gate might represent the precise coordinates of each timeline. It''s worth mentioning that Shen Wutian and the two Saint realm experts from the Immortal Realm were still in this ancient relic. But they were all under Jiang Yifeng''s control. As for the method of control, it was something he learned from Su Mushuang. Called: "Spirit Explosion Technique!" It involves injecting a trace of one''s Divine Sense into the Primordial Spirit of the person being controlled. If the person dares to resist, the Divine Sense will detonate the opponent''s Primordial Spirit. This technique is quite simple. As for why a technique capable of controlling Saint realm individuals is simple? It''s because this technique is somewhat of a double-edged sword. The caster must be significantly stronger than the person being controlled. Of course, that''s not the main point. The main point is that once the controlled person''s Primordial Spirit is detonated, the caster will also suffer bacsh. Because the trace of Divine Sense injected into the opponent''s Primordial Spirit will also be destroyed. However, Jiang Yifeng didn''t mind these things. The so-called control was merely a deterrent. When it came time to kill these people, he wouldn''t need to detonate the trace of controlling Divine Sense. Time passed. In the blink of an eye, it was the twenty-ninth day of the deep simtion. Seeing that the deep simtion was about to end. Jiang Yifeng stopped observing the "World Gate". Instead, he used the remaining time to record the events that had urred during this period. So that his simted self could understand the details. Just after the thirtieth day of the deep simtion, an electronic voice sounded in Jiang Yifeng''s ear. [Ding, deep simtion ended.] In an instant, Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness returned to reality. He rubbed his forehead. Unexpectedly, despite his confidence in this deep simtion. He didn''t gain much. Instead, he was left with more questions. Burying these doubts in his heart, Jiang Yifeng continued to watch the developments in the simtor. [You stand in front of the "World Gate," somewhat dazed.] ["Why am I here?"] ["Where''s Su Mushuang? Where did she go?"] ["No, that''s not right, I was deep simted!"] [Suddenly, a flood of thoughts appeared in your mind.] [Eventually, you confirm that you were deep simted.] [So, you start looking around, trying to see if there are any clues left behind.] [Not long after, you find something unusual in the storage ring: "Memory Crystal!"] [When you see the Memory Crystal, you instantly understand.] [The method of leaving messages has improved.] [But it makes sense, using a Memory Crystal is indeed more convenient.] [But where did the Memory Crystale from?] [Based on previous deep simtion memories, you know that the Southern Regions don''t have such things.] [No, that''s not right!] [It seems the two Saint realm experts from the Immortal Realm you captured earlier would definitely have such things.] [And Shen Wutian, even Su Mushuang; they might have them too.] [In that case, using a Memory Crystal to leave a message is possible.] [Without thinking much, you directly manipte your Divine Sense to check the memories in the Memory Crystal.] [Not long after, you understand everything from the deep simtion.] [First, you summoned Shen Wutian and the two Saint realm experts you captured from the Immortal Realm.] [You instructed them to search for a girl named Jiang Ruxuan in the Southern Regions.] [Your fist is thergest, and since they are under your control, they naturally dare not resist.] [They can only follow your orders.] [Afterward, you went to Spine Mountain and asked Old Li and the cultivators there to help search as well.] [Although these people have low cultivation, Jiang Ruxuan''s cultivation at this time should also be low.] [You think these people might be able to y a role.] [Well, maybe!] [Who cares! After all, it''s just a matter of words.] [Having more people searching together can''t be worse.] [In fact, you think these people might not be enough.] [You remember that in a previous simtion, you even mobilized people from the Immortal Arrival Sect and Spine Mountain to search for Su Mushuang and Jiang Ruxuan.] ?? [Although this time you''re only looking for Jiang Ruxuan, the concealment methods should still be left by Su Mushuang.] [Since the manpower is still insufficient, then find more people.] [Who to find?] [You grin, "That old fellow Bai Moyu once fooled me, so having him do a little task is only fair!"] [Instantly, you have a target in mind.] [You n to "invite" Bai Moyu and his sect members to help!] [Hmm? If he doesn''t help, then you''ll have to reason with him!] [You''ve also thought about directly going to the Immortal Realm to capture people.] [But, after so many simtions, you haven''t truly been to the Immortal Realm.] [The real situation is yet to be assessed.] [The simtion has just begun, you think it''s better to y it safe for now!] [No need to confront the entire Immortal Realm so quickly.] [After making your decision, you take a step and arrive at the Endless Sea.] [With a nce, you instantly spot the Mystic Turtle hiding in the sea.] [You immediately use the Chaos Heavy Pupil.] [Although you previously used the Eye of Insight to check its information, it only showed the Mystic Turtle''s realm, not its origins.] [You''re quite curious about the origins of this Mystic Turtle.] [Is it rted to the Divine Tortoise from a billion years ago?] [Mystic Turtle: Mystic Immortal Realm (severely injured)!] [Talent: Mutated Longevity Species, (Mutated Longevity Species: When sleeping, it is immune to the erosion of time; Drawback: Prone to memory loss)] [Summary: It seems to have lived for a very long time, causing it to forget many things; it only remembers someone telling it: "Live well!"] Chapter 252: Life-Preserving Mystic Turtle After reading the information about the Mystic Turtle, you fall into deep thought. "Is this Mystic Turtle the same little tortoise from a billion years ago?" The summary shown by the Chaos Heavy Pupil includes a phrase the Mystic Turtle remembers, which is quite simr to what you said to the little tortoise during that simtion a billion years ago. You recall that the simtor disyed your words: "Cultivate well and strive to survive!" However, considering the Mystic Turtle''s talent, which causes memory loss, forgetting half of it seems usible. But if the Mystic Turtle is indeed the little tortoise, something doesn''t add up. In that simtion from a billion years ago, there was no mention of the little tortoise having the "Mutated Longevity Species" talent. Could it be that it had it, but the simtor didn''t show it? Or perhaps something happenedter that caused the Mystic Turtle to mutate?You also remember that in a previous simtion, the Mystic Turtle even taught you a Formation Jade Slip. If it were the little tortoise, how would it know about formations? You didn''t teach it formations a billion years ago. No, that''s not right! A billion years is a long time; even if you didn''t teach it, the little tortoise could have learned elsewhere. Moreover, you had set up a sixth-grade immortal formation to protect the little tortoise back then. If it put in some effort, it might have learned a few things on its own. Thinking about this, you''re now ny percent sure that this is indeed the little tortoise. As for the reason? It''s simple: the Southern Regions are too special, and it seems many things are connected to you. For instance, the confirmed White Tiger and the Phoenix from the Valley of mes have some causal ties to you. Previously, you had considered whether the Mystic Turtle might be the reincarnation of a Divine Tortoise. You never thought it could be the little tortoise. After all, the information disyed about the little tortoise in that simtion was too ordinary. But often, things turn out to be unexpectedly surprising. You sigh, "Perhaps this is fate!" Upon realizing that the Mystic Turtle is very likely the little tortoise, you suddenly have many questions you want to ask it. You think that a turtle that has lived for billions of years, even if it sleeps most of the time, should know quite a few secrets. Remember the Divine Tortoise from back then? It lived for a billion years and knew secrets about the World Gate beyond the world''s barriers during ancient times. ? Could the Mystic Turtle also know many unknown secrets? But then you remember that the Mystic Turtle is only at the Mystic Immortal Realm. You shake your head. You''re overthinking it! The Divine Tortoise knew secrets because it was strong enough to have ess to them. With the Mystic Turtle''s strength? Even if it is the little tortoise and has lived for a billion years, what important things could it possibly know? With its strength, the things it knows probably wouldn''t interest you. That said, you still decide to take a chance, whether there''s something to gain or not. So, you gather chaotic energy to form a pair of giant hands, reaching into the Endless Sea to grab the Mystic Turtle. You n to pull the Mystic Turtle out and ask it some questions. There might be a surprise, who knows? The Mystic Turtle, sleeping soundly, is suddenly pulled out of the water by your giant hands. It looks drowsy and displeased. "Who is it? Disturbing my sleep?" Could it be that guy with the surname Bai again? Thinking of this, the Mystic Turtle subconsciously licks its lips. If it''s the one with the surname Bai, then it can endure! It''s not just about being unable to beat him; the key is that he gives too much. Indeed, the Mystic Turtle hasn''t noticed you at all this time. Even when you made a move, it didn''t realize it was you! It kept thinking it was Bai Moyu again. That''s the effect of overwhelming strength. However, you soon appear in front of the Mystic Turtle. It realizes that it has misunderstood the situation. Immediately, the Mystic Turtle bes alert.N?v(el)B\\jnn At this moment, the Mystic Turtle doesn''t recognize you. In its heart, it''s wondering: Who is this? Why would a powerful beinge here? So it tentatively asks you, "Who are you?" Seeing the Mystic Turtle''s fearful expression, you suddenly recall a situation from a previous simtion. You smirk and then p the Mystic Turtle, sending it back to the bottom of the Endless Sea. At the same time, your words reach the Mystic Turtle''s ears: "Are turtles these days so disrespectful to the strong?" Hearing this, the Mystic Turtle trembles at the bottom of the sea. It keeps thinking: It''s over, it''s over, I''ve offended someone! It doesn''t realize that your p, though grand, didn''t harm it in the slightest. Yes, that p was just your mischievousness. You remembered that in a previous simtion, the Mystic Turtle seemed to have treated you simrly. So, you wanted to scare the Mystic Turtle in the same way. And indeed, the Mystic Turtle was really frightened. Seeing this, you shake your head and stop teasing the Mystic Turtle. You take a step to the bottom of the Endless Sea, ready to ask the Mystic Turtle some questions to verify if it is the little tortoise! Does it know any hidden secrets? You think carefully but don''t know how to ask. Previously, the Chaos Heavy Pupil had already mentioned its severe memory loss. This is tricky! So, you directly let the Mystic Turtle speak for itself. You ask it to recount everything it has experienced in detail. Under your threat, the Mystic Turtle doesn''t dare refuse. It even actively reveals its memories for you to examine. It is determined to live well, that''s its obsession. Compared to that, memories are nothing it cares about. After all, your earlier words, "Do you not know to respect the strong," still echo in its ears. It''s afraid that if it doesn''t cooperate, you might take action against it. The Mystic Turtle''s cooperation surprises you. You know that generally, people are unwilling to expose their memories. Especially strong individuals. Their memories contain not only various secrets but also the risk of losing their cultivation level if someone examines them. After all, insights intows are part of one''s memory. Once someone deeply examines these memories, it''s easy for them toprehend them. These are notwsprehended from the world, so they can cause harm to the person involved. This seems to be a rule simr to "conservation of energy." It means thews of the person whose memory is examined are shared with others. For this reason, techniques to probe the memories of cultivators above the immortal realm are rare; you could even say nonexistent. At least, you''ve never encountered one. Normally, to view someone else''s memories, aside from the person voluntarily exposing them for others to see, only those who have deeplyprehended the Dao of Time can return to the past to observe, or those who haveprehended the power of causality can deduce the general memory. Now the Mystic Turtle directly reveals its memories for you to view. You could say it''s full of sincerity. Of course, you could also say it''s truly scared and cherishes its life! It perfectly embodies the essence of "strive to survive." Chapter 253: Mystic Turtle Memory; Timeline The Mystic Turtle''s actions left you in a bit of a dilemma. You knew that probing its memories might cause it harm. After hesitating for a long time, you decided to take a look. As long as you don''t try toprehend thews within its memories and avoid probing into its memories rted tows, there shouldn''t be much of a problem. After figuring this out, you sent a wisp of Divine Sense into the Mystic Turtle''s memories. Time passed by slowly. A whole monthter, your Divine Sense finally withdrew from the sea of the Mystic Turtle''s memories. By now, you werepletely certain that the Mystic Turtle was indeed the little tortoise. Its memories truly extended back a billion years.Unfortunately, its memories from a billion years ago only contained the fragmented phrase: "Live... well!" There weren''t even any images, just a voice. And the voice was so ethereal that you couldn''t even tell if it was male or female. If it weren''t for the details you learned from yourst simtion, you wouldn''t have been able to determine that the person who said those words was you. After that, the Mystic Turtle''s memories were a void.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om It wasn''t until five hundred million years ago that some scattered memories reappeared. In the Mystic Turtle''s memories, seven hundred million years ago, the entire world split apart. However, this seemed to have no effect on the Mystic Turtle. It was always asleep. How did the world split? It didn''t know, and it didn''t care! After that, there was another void. It wasn''t until nearly three hundred million years ago that there were some clear memories again. But these memories were very simr to the previous ones. The world split apart once more. The original three continents were all destroyed and reformed into individual realms. However, this still had nothing to do with the Mystic Turtle! It was only the noise of the world''s copse that woke it up again. After this, the Mystic Turtle''s memories gradually increased. Unfortunately, there wasn''t much useful information. Most of the time, it was asleep. Eighty million years ago, the Mystic Turtle''s memories changed again. The world was in chaos once more. The awakened Mystic Turtle didn''t care and continued to sleep. It wasn''t until twenty million years ago that the Mystic Turtle''s secluded ce was discovered, and it was almost killed. Someone saw its massive size, suitable for carrying people, and it narrowly escaped death. Then the Mystic Turtle became a transport tool, participating in several wars. In one of the wars, the Mystic Turtle was injured. It then lost its value. At that time, a man in white appeared. He brought it to the current Endless Sea. This Endless Sea became the Mystic Turtle''s prison. Of course, it didn''t really care. After all, it was still sleeping. It just felt that the original ce was more familiar, so it wanted to leave here. This is basically all the memories you obtained from the Mystic Turtle. Although there were many memories afterward, they were mostly things you already knew. For example, Bai Moyu gave the Mystic Turtle benefits to monitor the Southern Regions and report back to him. The only difference from your guess was that the Mystic Turtle didn''t monitor the Southern Regions at all; it was sleeping all day. It just took the benefits without doing the work! Better than originally estimated, the Mystic Turtle didn''t know much. But what it did know were major events. These things might not be considered secrets, but they were indeed what you wanted to understand. After reviewing the Mystic Turtle''s memories, you fell into deep thought. In reality, Jiang Yifeng was also pondering over this. Through the simtion, it was confirmed that the Mystic Turtle was the little tortoise. And ording to the Mystic Turtle''s memories, something must have happened seven hundred million years ago. Perhaps it was a great war during the Ancient Divine Dao period or something. Jiang Yifeng thought that maybe because of this, thends of ancient times could split into three parts. Turning into the state of three continents standing strong three hundred million years ago. Then around three hundred million years, something else happened. Causing the world to reorganize again, bing the myriad realms. Eighty million years ago, the Immortal Realm invaded, and the world became what it is now. It seems the timeline should be like this. But what exactly happened at these key points? Could it have something to do with him? But something seems off. If it was caused by his future simtions, that would mean the events haven''t happened yet. How could the current Mystic Turtle remember so clearly? Wouldn''t that be a paradox! Jiang Yifeng furrowed his brows. "Paradox?" He murmured and suddenly thought of Su Mushuang''s situation. Her previous amnesia, could it have been triggered by a paradox? Not to mention, if the secret Su Mushuang knew was the simtor or rted to him, it might indeed be possible. After all, only Jiang Yifeng knew about the simtor. And the rted matters were also most clear to him. Could it be that in a future simtion, he would tell Su Mushuang some secrets, prompting her to hide away? After a long while, Jiang Yifeng rubbed his somewhat chaotic head. He stopped thinking about Su Mushuang''s matters. His thoughts returned to the Mystic Turtle''s memories. He felt that the events at those memory nodes in the Mystic Turtle might have nothing to do with him. It was somewhat paradoxical! The only possible connection was the node from three hundred million years ago. In a previous simtion, he did unleash a Peerless Strike three hundred million years ago, causing a Dao-level fall and the world to shatter. He just didn''t know the extent of the shattering! If the shattering was severe enough, perhaps that world reorganization was caused by him. This was in a previous simtion. It wouldn''t create a paradox. Of course, these were all Jiang Yifeng''s spections. He couldn''t be sure. The simtor allowed him to perform cross-time simtions and leave a mark in history. It seemed to inherently contain some sort of paradox. So, his paradox theory might not be urate. Jiang Yifeng stopped thinking and once again looked at the simtor. Through the Mystic Turtle''s memories, you roughly summarized a timeline. After pondering for a moment, you didn''t think further. This clue, for now, doesn''t seem to help with this simtion. Then, you looked at the Mystic Turtle, who didn''t dare to breathe loudly, and smiled. Then, you punched out, directly severing thew chains beneath the Mystic Turtle. These were the shackles that bound the Mystic Turtle. Now you''vepletely broken these chains for it; the Mystic Turtle is free. After doing all this, you didn''t pay attention to the shocked Mystic Turtle, leaving only a sentence: "Thank you, live well!" After speaking, you disappeared from the Mystic Turtle''s sight. Chapter 254: Goodbye Bai Moyu [You left, leaving the Mystic Turtle lingering at the Endless Sea, somewhat dazed.] [It suddenly felt that your words, "live well," seemed to ovep with a voice from its memory.] [However, it didn''t dare to think deeply.] [How could it be possible?] [Although its memory isn''t great, it knows the voice in its memory belongs to someone from a very distant past.] [How could it be you!] [Shaking its shell, the Mystic Turtle stopped pondering about you.] [Now it''s free, but where should it go?] [Return to its oldir?][But that ce has already been discovered; does it even still exist?] [Will the one who locked it upe to capture it again?] [It always wanted to escape, and now it has the chance.] [But it''s confused!] [After thinking for a long time, the Mystic Turtle dove into the Endless Sea.] [It didn''t leave, abandoning the idea of returning to its oldir.] [To survive, it couldn''t leave, unsure if the Saint who locked it up woulde again.] [You could say its cautiousness rivals yours!] [No wonder, given your past master-disciple rtionship.] [Of course, you are unaware of all this.] [At this moment, you''ve already crossed the Endless Sea and arrived at the "Eastern Regions."] [You haven''t forgotten your previous goal.] [You''re here to find Bai Moyu to borrow people, to conduct a thorough search in the Southern Regions for your unseen sister, Jiang Ruxuan.] [Upon reaching the Eastern Regions, unlike your previous simtion, you didn''t inquire about the location of Bai Moyu''s Celestial Verdant Sect.] [Times have changed; you directly expanded your Divine Sense, enveloping the entire "Eastern Regions"!] [In an instant, you discovered the coordinates of the Celestial Verdant Sect.] [Truly simple and efficient.] [This made you sigh, "Having power is great!"] [Of course, you also know that doing so might attract the attention of strong beings from the Immortal Realm.] [But what does it matter?] [This simtion is meant to pave the way for reality.] [You intend to be a bit ostentatious, to figure out the current world''s strongest realm.] [Only by understanding all this can the real you have a clear mind and decide whether to continue being cautious!] [So, you''re not afraid of being noticed.] [In fact, even if the Immortal Realm doesn''t pay attention to you, you''ll actively seek them out once the time is right.] [After locating the Celestial Verdant Sect, you punched through the void and stepped in, heading towards its coordinates.] [In just a moment, you appeared above the Celestial Verdant Sect.] [Currently, the high-ranking members of the Celestial Verdant Sect are only at the Tribtion Crossing stage; they''ve never seen a strong being who can shatter the void.] ? [For a moment, everyone in the Celestial Verdant Sect was on high alert.] [As for the reason?] [Isn''t it because you barged into their mountain gate, clearly not with good intentions?] [Even Bai Moyu appeared frightened and worried.] [But this sly old fox was clearly pretending.] [He wanted to confuse and not reveal his true Saint realm existence.] [To be honest, if a Saint realm expert from the Immortal Realm came, they might really be fooled by him.] [Without using the Chaos Heavy Pupil, you couldn''t tell he was originally a Saint realm being.] [He truly seemed like a peak Tribtion Crossing cultivator.] [It seems his method of sealing his cultivation and memory is quite effective.] [No wonder this guy could hide in the "Eastern Regions" for so many years without being discovered.] [Unfortunately, he met you.] [Not only do you possess the Chaos Heavy Pupil, but you also knew his true strength from previous simtions.] [Watching Bai Moyu''s performance, you merely shook your head slightly, not exposing him!] [After all, your purpose here is to borrow people.] [Since he''s willing to act, let him continue!] [Anyway, there''s not much left on him worth exploring.] [So, you directly stated your purpose foring to the Celestial Verdant Sect.] [Upon hearing you say you want his Celestial Verdant Sect to help search the Southern Regions, Bai Moyu''s face changed.] [At this moment, although he doesn''t haveplete memories, he knows the Southern Regions are forbidden; very dangerous!] [For a moment, he hesitated, not daring to agree easily.] [Seeing him like this, you knew Bai Moyu wouldn''t easily make a decision withoutplete memories.] [Since that''s the case, you couldn''t be bothered to waste more words with him.] [You directly grabbed Bai Moyu, smiling as you exposed his identity!] [And you gave him two choices.] [Either agree to your request now.] [Or agree after restoring his strength and memory!] [With your expression and attitude, the memory-less Bai Moyu felt a bit uneasy!] [He couldn''t refuse; he could only agree to your request.] [However, he continued to y dumb, repeatedly saying, "Senior, what a joke, how could I be a Saint realm expert!"] [Although the Southern Regions are dangerous, his priority is to hide his identity.] [After all, he''s unsure if your actions are a test for him.] [He decided that after you leave with the sect disciples, he would go inside the Bronze Gate to restore his memory and then make further decisions.] [So, he "kindly" suggested to you, "Senior, if you want a thorough search, I can help you contact other sects to assist you!"]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [Hearing his words, you raised an eyebrow.] [Bai Moyu truly is full of schemes!] [At this moment, you understood his intention.] [He spoke nicely about contacting other sects, but in reality, he wanted to restore his strength and memory at the Bronze Gate after you left!] [Once restored, he would decide whether to cooperate with you or oppose you.] [But would it work?] [So, you couldn''t be bothered to expose him and agreed to his request.] [As long as your goal is achieved, that''s enough.] [As for whether he admits to his Saint realm strength or what he''ll do after restoring his memory and strength?] [What does that have to do with you?] [And for a thorough search, you don''tck this Saint realm being.] [If Bai Moyu restores his memory and strength and seeks trouble?] [Then just p him to death!] [After all, you don''t have a good impression of Bai Moyu.] [You''re not acting against him now only because, in the initial simtion, you gained many benefits from his daughter, Bai Ruoxue.] [Speaking of Bai Ruoxue, you didn''t seem to see her in the Celestial Verdant Sect.] [You guessed she might be out.] [You didn''t mind, as you didn''t need her help.] [Afterward, you led tens of thousands from the Celestial Verdant Sect towards the Southern Regions.] [You could say, except for Bai Moyu and the disciples training outside, the entire sect was mobilized.] Chapter 255: Southern Regions Change --- Not long after, the Southern Regions underwent aplete transformation. Cultivators could be seen flying through the skies from time to time, searching everywhere for young girls aged 18 to 20. The people of the Southern Regions had now fullye to understand the matters of cultivation.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om In no time, arge number of mortals began to entertain the idea of cultivation. Many young people started on the path to seek immortality. However, you did not personally go to find your sister, Jiang Ruxuan. At this moment, you had already returned to the Jiang Family Mansion. No, to be precise, you were now tens of thousands of meters beneath the Jiang Family Mansion.Herey the Immortal Dao inheritance. You were almost certain that this inheritance was left by your father in his past life. Originally, you had no intention ofing. But after the events involving the ancient relic, Su Mushuang, and the Mystic Turtle, you felt that spection was just spection. No matter how confident you were, it was still better to confirm it with your own eyes. You walked into the grand hall of the inheritance, gazing at the orb-like inheritance. You directly used the Chaos Heavy Pupil. The information of the Immortal Dao inheritance wasid bare before you. After reading it, you let out a sigh of relief. This time, your guess was finally correct. This Immortal Dao inheritance was indeed left by your father. And the spiritual consciousness within the inheritance was also left by your father in his past life. However, that spiritual consciousness only contained the memory of the cultivation techniques; it did not have theplete memory of your father''s past life. You thought that perhaps it was precisely because itckedplete memory that the previous simtion had the error in inheritance recognition, allowing you to intercept it. Otherwise, even if you had the talent of a Child of Fortune, even if you were strong, you might not have obtained that inheritance! Besides this, the inheritance also contained a life-saving mechanism. In times of crisis, that spiritual consciousness could temporarily restore your father''s past life memory, but after that, the consciousness wouldpletely dissipate. This information made you instantly understand. No wonder the arrogant actions of that consciousness in the previous simtion felt so familiar. Wasn''t it exactly like your hot-blooded, delusional father? It turned out that it temporarily restored past life memories. Apart from these, you also learned from the information disyed by this Immortal Dao inheritance that your father had left many such inheritances. You could guess that this was probably the backup n left by your father in his past life. To prevent any idents from happening, ensuring he could still receive his inheritance. This also exined why, even though you intercepted the inheritance your father left for himself, he could still obtain the same inheritance. But where are those inheritances now? Why hadn''t you detected them before? Suddenly, you thought of a possibility. Those inheritances are in the same ce as your sister Jiang Ruxuan! Apart from leaving them in his usual ce, it made the most sense for your father to leave them with your mother, Su Mushuang, for safekeeping. And Su Mushuang currently didn''t have these things on her. So, it could only have been left in the ce she previously hid. Which is where Jiang Ruxuan is now. Thinking of this, your eyes lit up. In that case, could asking your mother Su Mushuang about the locations of these inheritances indirectly lead you to Jiang Ruxuan? With this thought, you acted immediately. You didn''t hesitate and went straight to find your mother Su Mushuang to inquire about the situation. The result was a failure. She had lost her memorypletely. In her theory, she had never left the Jiang Family Mansion, so how could she have taken your father''s inheritance elsewhere! Receiving this answer, you sighed inwardly, "Not even a single bug to exploit!" However, the more this was the case, the more you felt that Jiang Ruxuan might know something. Although it might not beprehensive, having lived with Su Mushuang for a long time, she must have picked up on some things from daily life. Of course, the premise is that Jiang Ruxuan doesn''t experience the same memory loss as Su Mushuang. No matter what, it''s best to find Jiang Ruxuan first! At this moment, you had a rtively reliable idea in mind. Since Jiang Ruxuan and the inheritance left by your father in his past life are together. Then, as long as your father regains his memory, could he directly sense the inheritance he left in his past life? He should be able to, right? Even if there are treasures blocking it, the inheritance contains your father''s past life spiritual consciousness. This is almost equivalent to a true eye. As long as your father regains his memory, he should be able to control that spiritual consciousness. Thinking of this, you felt it was time to let your father quickly break through. From the previous simtions, as long as he bes immortal, he can regain his memory. Afterward, you sent arge amount of resources to your father''s hands. Besides, you also had your father, Jiang Fushan, take that Immortal Dao inheritance. Although you had previously imparted the cultivation techniques to your father, this inheritance contains your father''s past life spiritual consciousness, and perhaps receiving the inheritance once could have a better effect. ? Of course, while you were elerating your father Jiang Fushan''s cultivation speed, you didn''t let Shen Wutian, the two Saints from the Immortal Realm, and the cultivators from the Celestial Verdant Sect stop searching for Jiang Ruxuan. Multiple lines of action are more reliable. In the blink of an eye, three months passed. Suddenly, there was amotion above the sealing formation. An Immortal Lord at the Golden Immortal realm looked at the cultivators flying back and forth in the Southern Regions, feeling incredulous! How could this be? He hadn''te to patrol for just a couple of decades, and the Southern Regions had changed like this? He didn''t even deliberately investigate, just casually nced, and saw so many cultivators! Where are the Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect? Are they all useless? This Immortal Lord at the Golden Immortal realm had no idea that the Immortal Arrival Sect now only had three people left. One was the sect master Shen Wutian, whom you had captured, and two others who had past connections with you. The other Immortal ves had long ascended to the heavens. At this moment, the Immortal Lord at the Golden Immortal realm had no mind to me the Immortal Arrival Sect. All he wanted now was to quickly resolve the issue in the Southern Regions. Otherwise, if the Saint realm bigwigs of the Immortal Realm found out the Southern Regions had be like this, it would be his dereliction of duty. So, he hurriedly manipted the Heavenly Thunder, preparing to strike down the cultivators in the Southern Regions! Although it wasn''t yet time for the Heavenly Thunder to descend, it didn''t matter, as the Saint realm above hadn''t set a specific time. In the past, the Heavenly Thunder descended once every few decades just because he wanted to save some effort. This Immortal Lord at the Golden Immortal realm didn''t know that the Saint realm bigwigs he feared had already be your captives, and were among the cultivators searching for people. Of course, it wasn''t his fault; he was just at the Golden Immortal realm and couldn''t detect the presence of the Saint realm. Just as this Immortal Lord was about to release the Heavenly Thunder, you silently appeared behind him. The current you was no longer the you of the past. As soon as this Immortal n member at the Golden Immortal realm appeared, you had already detected him. Before this Immortal Lord at the Golden Immortal realm could release the Heavenly Thunder, you had already grabbed him in your hand. Chapter 256: Who will come to die? The Golden Immortal Lord was caught off guard by the current situation. He was a bit confused about what was happening. "What¡¯s going on?" However, as soon as he realized you could easily handle him, he quickly and respectfully said, "S-Senior, may I ask what you need?" You looked at the Golden Immortal Lord, who was in your grasp like a little chick, and a smile gradually appeared on your face. In your heart, you thought, "Kid, you like using Heavenly Thunder, don''t you?" "You used Heavenly Thunder to kill me so many times in the simtion, didn''t you?" "Now you''ve finally fallen into my hands, haven''t you?" As you thought about it, your smile became increasingly sinister.Then, with a wave of your hand, you conjured a purple thunderbolt using the Law of Thunder. A miserable scream echoed. The Golden Immortal Lord was struck by the thunderbolt you unleashed, his skin torn and flesh exposed. Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, seven days had gone by! Looking at the barely alive Golden Immortal powerhouse, you stopped using the power of thunder and instead sent him on his way with a single palm strike. You felt you were truly a good person; after all, this Immortal Lord had struck you with thunder so many times in the simtion, and you only struck him with thunder for seven days! You sighed, "Ah, still too soft-hearted!" Then, you vanished from the spot, returning once more to the Southern Regions. In the days that followed, you didn''t wander around but stayed in the Jiang Family Mansion to cultivate. In fact, there were many things you still wanted to understand. For example, the Dragon Tomb; for example, the Immortal Realm; and so on. But you had to take things one step at a time. You nned to wait until your father broke through to the Immortal Realm, see if you could find your sister Jiang Ruxuan, and then consider the rest. After all, you were worried that if you weren''t around, your father might not be able to break through smoothly. Now that Su Mushuang had lost her memory to such an extent, you weren''t sure if she could ensure your father''s safety. Of course, you could also choose to destroy and suppress the Immortal Realm before your father¡¯s breakthrough. But doing so wouldn''t be prudent. Although you were powerful now, who knew how many Saints and half-Dao level beings were in the Immortal Realm? To suppress and destroy them all by yourself seemed a bit challenging with your current strength. In your previous simtions, you had only managed to kill a half-Dao level Leviathan-Roc. And that was with the help of the Azure Dragon. Although the Azure Dragon only contributed in the early stages, it was still quite crucial. Moreover, you were seriously injured in that battle. Although you felt that the current half-Dao level beings might not be as formidable as the Leviathan-Roc, And you were stronger than when you killed the Leviathan-Roc. You should be able to handle a half-Dao level opponent on your own now. But you were only confident in killing them in a one-on-one situation! If they attacked in groups, you might still be at a disadvantage. This was why you hadn''t directly attacked the Immortal Realm. You needed to wait a bit longer and improve some more! If possible, it would be best if the strong ones from the Immortal Realm came to you one by one. Time flew by! In the blink of an eye, it was the twelfth year since the simtion began. One day, a strange phenomenon appeared in your father Jiang Fushan''s room! Sensing this, you knew your father Jiang Fushan was about to break through to the Core Formation stage. This was a year faster than in previous simtions. Your substantial resource investment had paid off. Your father Jiang Fushan''s breakthrough still attracted a celestial phenomenon, But now there were no Immortal ves, so his breakthrough faced no obstacles. It only shocked the cultivators in the Southern Regions who were helping you search for Jiang Ruxuan. Besides that, the Jiang Family''s status in Green Hills City rose even higher. The mortals there all knew there was an immortal in the Jiang Family Mansion! After your father Jiang Fushan broke through to the Core Formation stage, his cultivation speed increased rapidly. Unknowingly, ten years passed. One day, you and your father Jiang Fushan arrived at a deste ce. You looked at your father Jiang Fushan, smiled, and said, "Father, focus on your breakthrough. If anything else happens, leave it to me!" Indeed, with unlimited resources, your father''s breakthrough to the Immortal Realm was faster. In just ten years, he went from the Core Formation stage to the peak of the Tribtion Crossing stage. Even counting the time before Core Formation, it took your father Jiang Fushan just over eleven years to go from a mortal to facing the tribtion for bing an immortal. £Ò This was partly because he was reincarnated, but it also proved his exceptional talent. "Heh, a little thunder tribtion! Easily handled; Feng, don''t worry!" Your father Jiang Fushan chuckled and waved his hand at you. But was that really what he thought? Of course not. At this moment, Jiang Fushan was constantly encouraging himself: "Jiang Fushan, don''t be afraid; you can''t lose face in front of your son; it''s just a thunder tribtion, just being struck by lightning, what''s the big deal!" Now, without his memories orbat experience, how could Jiang Fushan not fear the thunder tribtion? A father is a son''s role model; he just didn''t want to leave a cowardly impression on his son! Perhaps not just in this simtion, but in previous ordinary simtions and even in reality, he always had this thought. Otherwise, why was he always so omnipotent in front of you when you were still a mortal? Perhaps he wanted you to take him as a role model and be a strong, brave, and omnipotent person! But in the past, you didn''t seem to grasp his intention and strayed further away. Of course, this was also rted to his inability to guide you correctly! But it was his first time being a father, so it seemed understandable. In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this. He thought: Is that so? Was it not just indulgence? Don''t say! It actually seems possible. After all, his father really wasn''t good at expressing himself. Using such a method to guide him seemed usible.N?v(el)B\\jnn But none of that mattered. Whether it was indulgence or guidance, it all meant his father wanted the best for him. That was indisputable. Jiang Yifeng kept this in his heart. He shook his head, not thinking much more. Instead, he continued to look at the simtor. After a brief adjustment, your father Jiang Fushan revealed his aura and began to guide the tribtion for bing an immortal! And you, with a smile on your face, watched the void outside the sealing formation. In your heart, you thought, "Which Saint from the Immortal Realm wille to meet their end?" Chapter 257: Sending someone to their death? In the void, tribtion lightning roared! Your father, Jiang Fushan''s tribtion for bing an immortal, had finally descended. At the same time, Saints from all over who were paying attention to the Southern Regions sensed themotion once again. Why "once again"? Because thest time you struck the "World Gate" with all your might, it also caused a disturbance. Back then, many Saints sensed the anomaly. However, since it was in an ancient relic, their senses were greatly weakened; most didn''t pay much attention. Still, two Saints from the Immortal Realm came to observe the situation. Ah, they were the ones you captured, who are now helping you find your sister.This time, your father''s tribtion wasn''t in an ancient relic. The Saints'' senses wouldn''t be weakened. As soon as the lightning appeared, the Saints knew someone in the Southern Regions was about to be immortal. Instantly, many Saints from various realms headed southward.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om An hourter, your father was still undergoing his tribtion. The first Saint from the Immortal Realm had already arrived outside the sealing formation of the Southern Regions. This Saint, upon seeing Jiang Fushan undergoing the tribtion, was momentarily stunned. "Is it him?" "So, he really reincarnated and started over." For a moment, the Saint thought of many things. He sneered internally, "Those conservative fools were worried they were just in hiding, afraid to make a move on the Southern Regions." After a moment of disdain, the Saint didn''t hesitate; he directly gathered a giant hand to crush your father and destroy the Southern Regions. He focused all his attention on your father, Jiang Fushan, seemingly unaware of a gap above the sealing formation in the void. Just as the Saint was about to press the giant hand down on the Southern Regions, you slowly emerged from the gap in the sealing formation. This gap was created when you previously captured that Golden Immortal Lord. Without saying much, you unleashed a Silent Destruction Fist. In an instant, the giant hand the Saint had gathered was shattered by your blow. By the time the Saint reacted, your second Silent Destruction Fist was already before him. With a loud "boom," the Saint fell into the Southern Regions. Before long, you used the control method you learned from Su Mushuang to subdue the severely weakened Saint. Although you wanted to kill this culprit who repeatedly shattered the Southern Regions, these Saints were still useful to you, so you decided not to kill them for now. After capturing this Saint, you thought it was temporarily over. But the subsequent developments didn''t align with your expectations. Just ten minutester, another Saint from the Immortal Realm arrived. Like the one you captured, he showed a hint of surprise when he saw your father breaking through to be immortal. Then he gathered a giant foot, intending to trample your father, Jiang Fushan, underfoot. Unfortunately, before he couldunch his attack, you knocked him down with a few punches. Your count of captured Saints increased by one. You looked at the two captured Saints and thought, "The hand and foot from the simtion are nowplete; surely no one else wille!" Soon, you realized you were wrong again. After that, Saints kept arriving one after another. But their fate was the same. They became your captives! Time passed bit by bit. Half a dayter, your father, Jiang Fushan, sessfully crossed his tribtion. And the number of Saint captives by your side had reached twenty-eight. Looking at the group of captive Saints, you sighed internally, "They really know how to deliver themselves!" If these dozens of Saints hade together, you might have had to exert some effort. But they came one by one. Isn''t this just handing themselves over? You felt these Saints from the Immortal Realm had grown arrogant and lost their vignce. You shook your head, temporarily ignoring the Saint captives. Since your father had be immortal, he should have regained his memories. Once he regained his memories, not only might he know the whereabouts of your sister, Jiang Ruxuan, but he could also verify many of your previous spections. Or perhaps, there were things you still didn''t know? You even thought your father, Jiang Fushan, might know the secrets Su Mushuang was aware of. Of course, the premise is that the secret was indeed something you told them. If the secret Su Mushuang knew was something you revealed during a simtion, then there''s no reason your father, Jiang Fushan, wouldn''t know. Your bond with your father, Jiang Fushan, was clearly deeper than with Su Mushuang! For a moment, you had many questions you wanted to ask. At the same time, you were a bit worried that if your father really knew that secret, he might also experience memory loss. At this moment, Jiang Fushan''s thoughts were somewhat chaotic. He had indeed regained most of his memories. However, some parts were not coherent; it felt like something was missing! Jiang Fushan didn''t think much of it, attributing it to the aftereffects of reincarnation. After a long while, he walked over to you with a slightly conflicted expression and sighed, "No matter who you were, you will always be my son!" After saying this, Jiang Fushan patted your shoulder. Without his memories, Jiang Fushan didn''t understand the significance of your current cultivation level. Now that he had regained his memories, he naturally understood that your current power was impossible for someone in their twenties to possess. No matter how much of a genius you were. There was only one possibility. You were also a reincarnated cultivator. Moreover, one who had awakened their memories early. Yes, in Jiang Fushan''s eyes, this was indeed the case. Of course, this was also because Jiang Fushan hadn''t seen you use the Silent Destruction Fist during the tribtion. Otherwise, he might have had some guesses about your identity. After all, three hundred million years ago, he had witnessed the Silent Destruction Fist. Chapter 258: Jiang Fushan Regains Memory In reality, Jiang Yifeng pondered as he reached this point. He wondered whether he should conduct a deep simtion to reveal his identity. Should he let his father know that he was his benefactor from three hundred million years ago? After thinking it over for a long time, Jiang Yifeng shook his head. There wasn''t much need. Frankly, apart from making everyone feel awkward, it seemed to have no practical significance. Moreover, he no longer held much hope of obtaining useful information from his father. The simtor had already indicated that his father''s memories were not coherent. Jiang Yifeng believed this wasn''t some aftereffect of reincarnation.Rather, it was due to some restriction, or perhaps those disjointed parts were traces of his cross-time simtion. Since he hadn''t yet conducted a cross-time simtion, his father''s memories were disjointed. Of course, this was just a hypothesis he deduced from previous paradoxes. The true situation remained to be evaluated. In fact, simr paradoxes had appeared before. For instance, the War God Art had appeared in Wu Youdao''s hands before he even simted it. But since the origin of the War God Art was unknown, it was likely a built-in feature of the simtor. So Jiang Yifeng excluded this paradox. After all, the simtor itself was a huge paradox, a massive inconsistency! He shook his head and stopped thinking further. He continued to watch the developments in the simtor. [After hearing your father Jiang Fushan''s words, you roughly understood his meaning!] [Although you weren''t sure if you were a strong person reincarnated, the fact that you had crossed over was undeniable.] [So you nodded and solemnly replied, "No matter who I was in the past, now, in the future, I will always be your son!"] [Instantly, Jiang Fushan burst into heartyughter.] [Your wordspletely dissolved the slight estrangement between you and him.] [Afterward, you began to inquire about various matters from your father Jiang Fushan.] [Your previous spections were also verified one by one.] [The man and woman who once suppressed the Saint realm powerhouses of the Immortal Realm were indeed your father Jiang Fushan and Su Mushuang.]n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [And the group of Saints in the Immortal Realm, like Immortal Thirteen, were all viins once suppressed by your father Jiang Fushan.] [Through control methods, theyter became useful to Jiang Fushan.] [As for Bai Moyu, ording to Jiang Fushan, he was once your father''s "simp."] [He wanted to follow your father and sought guidance from him.] [In fact, because Bai Moyu was such a simp, many in the Saint realm mocked him.] [When you heard this, you finally understood why such a cowardly and death-fearing guy like Bai Moyu hadn''t betrayed the Nine Mystic Realm to join the Immortal Realm.] [It turned out he had been such a simp before that he was already marked with your father''sbel.] [Perhaps it wasn''t that he didn''t want to, but rather that the people in the Immortal Realm simply didn''t trust him!] [Maybe that''s why he didn''t betray the Nine Mystic Realm and collude with the Immortal Realm.] [Besides this, you also learned that your father Jiang Fushan and Su Mushuang were already severely injured before the Saint realm war.] [As for how they got injured?] [Jiang Fushan only mentioned it was an old injury from countless years ago.] [He couldn''t remember the specifics due to memory damage from reincarnation.] [However, the reason for his reincarnation was precisely because he exerted himself fully that time, making the old injury uncontroble.] [What kind of injury could cause a half-Dao level peak father to need reincarnation after one action, despite countless years of recuperation?] [Unfortunately, your father Jiang Fushan couldn''t remember how he got injured.] [You felt this was a crucial point.] [Later, you inquired about the reason for the Immortal Realm''s invasion of various realms and the devouring of the Heavenly Dao.] [But your father Jiang Fushan just shook his head, saying that before the Saints of the Immortal Realm began their rampant battles, he and Su Mushuang were always recuperating.] [He wasn''t aware of the external changes.] [Your father Jiang Fushan indeed knew a lot.] [But many things were already within your spections.] [Moreover, you tentatively asked about the secret Su Mushuang knew, but your father was only puzzled and confused.] [There was no sign of amnesia.] [In this case, the secret was likely something Su Mushuang learned after your father''s reincarnation.] [Otherwise, there''s no reason Su Mushuang would know something your father didn''t, given they were always together.] [If that''s the case, then the possibility of the secret being rted to the simtor is low.] [After all, your father has only been reincarnated for a few decades.] [The matter of the simtor should only be known to you, and you couldn''t have used it to tell Su Mushuang about it decades ago.] [You feel that Su Mushuang''s secret might have nothing to do with you.] [Of course, this irrelevance only means you didn''t tell her.] [As for whether the secret itself has any connection to you, that''s hard to say.] [You think there''s a high possibility of a connection.] [Otherwise, why wouldn''t they let you know?] [Since your father can''t be a breakthrough point, you can only see if your sister Jiang Ruxuan, whom you''ve never met, knows anything.] [So, you continued to ask your father about your sister Jiang Ruxuan.] [Your father Jiang Fushan wasn''t surprised that you knew about this sister.] [He already thought you were a reincarnated strong person.] [Knowing you had a sister while still in swaddling clothes wasn''t strange.] [When talking about your sister Jiang Ruxuan, Jiang Fushan seemed a bit sad.] [He had only seen his daughter when she was in swaddling clothes.] [He didn''t know how his daughter was doing now.] [As your father Jiang Fushan was feeling down, you slowly spoke, "Dad, I''ve actually been looking for her too."] ["However, it seems something is blocking the divine sense, making it impossible to find my sister."] ["I think it might be a method left by mother. Didn''t you leave many legacies? Could they be with my sister!"] [Your words were like a wake-up call; Jiang Fushan thought this possibility was high.] [Before reincarnation, he indeed left many legacies, most of which were taken by Su Mushuang.] [Now that Su Mushuang has amnesia and has no legacies on her, it''s likely those legacies were ced with daughter Jiang Ruxuan.] [However, he has only recovered to the Mortal Immortal realm and can''t yet cover the Southern Regions with his divine sense instantly.] [Your father Jiang Fushan told you he was confident in finding those legacies, but his current strength was insufficient, requiring him to sense those legacies'' locations by region.] [With your father''s affirmative answer, you felt reassured.] [No matter what, it''s better than searching aimlessly.] [So, you decided to take your father and search bit by bit!] [But before that, you used a remote transmission talisman to instruct Shen Wutian to bring the twenty-eight Saint realm captives from the Immortal Realm to the ancient relic.] [Have them all attack the World Gate!] [This was why you spared those Saints.] [You couldn''t break the World Gate alone, so let everyone above the Saint realm attack it.] [As for those of lower realms, forget it, they''re useless!] [Speaking of Shen Wutian.] [Though he''s under your control now, he feels great.] [As for the reason?] [It''s because now he can not onlymand those Saints from the Immortal Realm but also scold and beat them.] [This gives him immense satisfaction, finally venting his frustrations from millions of years.] [Of course, this was a privilege you deliberately granted.] [Although Shen Wutian isn''t a good person, the Saints from the Immortal Realm are even more despicable in your eyes; they deserve some suffering!] Chapter 259: Fallen into a trance! Before Shen Wutian took away those captives, you also questioned the Saints of the Immortal Realm about their reasons for invading other realms and seizing the Heavenly Dao. The information matched what you had gathered from previous simtions: it was all to enhance their power. You also asked them where they learned the method to devour the Heavenly Dao. Unfortunately, none of them could provide a clear answer. It seemed as if this method of devouring the Heavenly Dao had appeared out of nowhere. The Saints of the Immortal Realm were all using this method, but they didn''t know its origin. Normally, would Saints cultivate a method of unknown origin? No, something was very wrong! But these people were under your control and couldn''t lie.So there was only one possibility. Either the collective memory of these Saints had issues, or something was influencing their thoughts. Who was causing all this? Was it that ck-robed man? It didn''t seem likely; if the ck-robed man could directly influence these Saints, it would mean he had been in this timeline. He would definitely have found you. Then he should have appeared before you long ago! "Wait a minute..." Suddenly, you seemed to realize something! The ck-robed man was searching for you across time! But is time and space the same thing? No, they are not! If it were just time, the ck-robed man could have gone to a distant timeline and waited for a chance! As long as time passed, you would eventually appear in a future timeline. But the ck-robed man didn''t do that? Could he be foolish? No, anyone who reached that level of cultivation wouldn''t be foolish! Thinking of this, your eyes lit up; you murmured, "So there really are parallel worlds!" But if there are parallel worlds, why did previous cross-time simtions affect the future? Could it be a coincidence? Did you just happen to travel to the same parallel world that intersected with reality? And this parallel world just happened to be the same as reality? It''s possible, but the odds are too low! Or is it that the past is singr, but the future holds countless possibilities, hence parallel worlds? That doesn''t seem right either. If that''s the case, why would the ck-robed man search for you in the future? Instead of blocking you in the historical timeline? Then, there is basically only one possibility. Both history and the future have parallel worlds. You feel that only this exins the ck-robed man''s actions. But if that''s the case, then the previous cross-time simtions affecting the future and reality could only be a coincidence or the simtor''s intention! R If that''s the case, is the current simtion in a parallel world? Are you still you? Are you simting, or are you inherently a person from a parallel world?n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om Your thoughts drift further and further... Your mind bes increasingly chaotic, and your aura begins to grow restless. This is a sign of entering a demonic state! "Feng''er, Feng''er..." In your chaotic thoughts, you seem to hear someone calling your name. "Feng''er, stop; don''t overthink!" "No matter what happens, your father will always be by your side!" ... Jiang Fushan''s voice continuously echoes in your ears. When your aura began to grow restless, he noticed something was wrong. Although his current strength hasn''t recovered to the half-Dao level, his insight remains; he knows you''ve fallen into a mental trap. But with his current strength, he can''t forcibly intervene, so he can only keepforting you with words. Soon after, your aura gradually calms down. Of course, it''s not because your father''sfort was so effective. It''s because you''ve figured it out. Whether this simted world is a parallel world or not. Whether the original you is you! But the current you is definitely you. Otherwise, you wouldn''t have memories and strength from reality. The simted you, without the simtor, couldn''t possibly have such strength at the age of twenty-something. This is the best proof! Once you figured this out, your mental trap naturally dissipated. "Feng''er, are you okay?" Seeing your aura stabilize, your father Jiang Fushan quickly stepped forward to inquire. You shook your head and replied with a smile, "Dad, I''m fine, sorry for worrying you!" After that, you didn''t continue to dwell on parallel worlds or the ck-robed man. As for the anomalies of those Saints of the Immortal Realm? Well, you can''t figure it out for now either. But you can be sure there''s something hidden among them. A pair of big hands is manipting all this. It''s tooplicated, thinking about it gives you a headache. Better to take it one step at a time! In reality, Jiang Yifeng was already drenched in cold sweat. The situation in the simtion just now gave him a fright. Not to mention the mysteries, his simted self almost fell into a demonic state. He wondered what would happen if his simted self hadn''t realized it in time. If he got stuck in a mental trap, what would happen? Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng had a terrifying thought. If his simted self didn''t wake up, would it harbor hostility towards his real self? This seemed highly possible. Then, would it turn against him? There''s a possibility! However, the feasibility is low unless it bes strong enough to break free from the simtor. Huh? Strong enough to break free from the simtor? Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng thought of that ck-robed man. Could this person, who even the simtor is wary of, be a version of himself from a simtion? No, that''s not right! If the ck-robed man were a version of himself from a simtion, he would definitely know about the simtor''s existence. He would also know where his real self is. He wouldn''t mindlessly chase himself across different timelines. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng felt relieved. Thank goodness! He was really afraid it would be such a clich¨¦d plot. Although he''s certain the ck-robed man isn''t a version of himself from a simtion. Jiang Yifeng still noted down the potential risk of his simted self losing control. He kept reminding himself. "Try not to think about things you can''t figure out, don''t get stuck in a mental trap." "Even if it means doing nothing, it''s fine!" ... After a long time, he felt his mental suggestions were sufficient. So he continued to look at the simtor. Chapter 260: Finally found it! After confirming that you were unharmed, you and your father, Jiang Fushan, began searching the Southern Regions for the legacy he left behind, hoping to find Jiang Ruxuan through it. Three dayster. While you and your father were investigating a certain location, Bai Moyu suddenly arrived with arge group of cultivators. At this moment, Bai Moyu was not in a sealed state but came with the cultivation of the Saint realm. As soon as he saw you, he hurriedly exined a lot. The gist of it was that he was previously in a sealed state and didn''t know he had the cultivation of a Saint, and so on! Then he said that over the years, he had been helping you contact other sects in the Eastern Regions. To have them help you find someone... In any case, it was a bunch of excuses to absolve himself.As for the truth? The truth was that after you left the Celestial Verdant Sect, Bai Moyu immediately went to recover his memory and cultivation. Once he recovered, he knew you were looking for help to find someone in the Southern Regions. This meant there was a high possibility that you were not from the Immortal Realm. Otherwise, you wouldn''t need to borrow people; there are plenty of people in the Immortal Realm. This excited him for a moment, but just for a moment. He didn''t think you would oppose the Immortal Realm. Of course, in his mind, even if you opposed the Immortal Realm, you wouldn''t be a match.N?v(el)B\\jnn That''s precisely why he didn''te to find you or join you! As for seeking revenge on you? That never crossed his mind. In his view, doing so would expose himself and be more trouble than it''s worth. A few days ago, your father Jiang Fushan underwent the tribtion to be an immortal. At that time, Bai Moyu also sensed it. He thought the Southern Regions were doomed. He didn''t pay much attention and instead hid away. After all, if a Saint from the Immortal Realm came to the Southern Regions, his "Eastern Regions" were too close to the Southern Regions. If he didn''t hide, he would easily be discovered. Until today, he found that the Southern Regions were still intact. He realized that the Immortal Realm had met its match. The first person he thought of was you. After all, you mentioned a few days ago that you were looking for someone in the Southern Regions. That''s why he rushed to find you. One reason was to seek refuge with you, and the other was fear. Fear that you would find out he deceived you ande to settle ounts. He didn''t dare offend someone who could resist the strong of the Immortal Realm. As Bai Moyu spoke, he suddenly saw Jiang Fushan beside you. Then, without saying more to you, he turned around and knelt directly in front of your father. You saw him crying out in front of your father, "Sir, you''re back!" "You have no idea, during your absence, the Immortal Realm has been bullying our Nine Mystic Realm. One by one, the Saint realm experts of our Nine Mystic Realm have rebelled, and I could only barely hold on..." Bai Moyu was crying his heart out. His performance made you twitch at the corner of your mouth. You couldn''t help but mentallyin, "This Bai Moyu, damn, he''s so realistic." "Weren''t you just trying to please me?" "Why are you suddenly sucking up to my father?" "And Bai Moyu, your sealed cultivation and memory, hiding to live by, is that barely holding on? It''s surviving by the skin of your teeth!" "Beautifying yourself like this? Doesn''t your conscience hurt?" Seeing your father Jiang Fushan almost believing Bai Moyu''s nonsense, you couldn''t stand it anymore. So you walked up to your father Jiang Fushan and subtly revealed Bai Moyu''s actions. Immediately, your father Jiang Fushan stopped paying attention to Bai Moyu. For a moment, Bai Moyu felt a bit awkward. However, no matter what, Bai Moyu indeed didn''t do anything bad. At most, he was just trying to protect himself. It''s human nature. You didn''t continue to make things difficult for him. You and your father Jiang Fushan continued to search for your sister Jiang Ruxuan, ignoring Bai Moyu. But Bai Moyu stuck to you like a leech. He kept hovering around you, offering to help with anything you needed. It''s worth mentioning that he already knew you were Jiang Fushan''s son. Now, he''s not only sucking up to your father but also to you. Half a month passed in the blink of an eye. Bai Moyu''s constant presence around you was really getting on your nerves. So, you sent him to the ancient relic to watch over the captured Saints of the Immortal Realm for you. Of course, that was just an excuse. Those captives were being "attended to" by Shen Wutian, so there was no problem at all. You said it just to get rid of Bai Moyu, the simp. The power of a simp was just too overwhelming. You couldn''t take it anymore. Bai Moyu was sent away by you. You found peace, but some Saints of the Immortal Realm seemed to have a harder time. One vengeful Shen Wutian was already tormenting them enough, and now another vengeful Bai Moyu joined in. Of course, you were unaware of these things for the time being. At this moment, you and your father Jiang Fushan had moved to another location, continuing to search for the legacy he left in his past life. A weekter, you passed by the Heavenly Profound Temple in the Evergreen Mountain Range. There, you spotted an acquaintance, Bai Ruoxue. What a coincidence! But why did shee sote this time? In previous simtions, Bai Ruoxue would visit the Heavenly Profound Temple in the third year! Perhaps themotion you caused in the Southern Regions was too great, causing Bai Ruoxue''s timing to change. You didn''t think much of it; you just nced from afar and left. In this simtion, you were just strangers passing by. No need to reminisce. Actually, in the Heavenly Profound Temple, there was also the Heavenly Profound Sword, with Sword Spirit Guo Qing. But now, you didn''t really need a weapon. What is gone is gone; let it remain there! Of course, these were just minor interludes that didn''t interrupt the rhythm of you and your father Jiang Fushan searching for the legacy he left in his past life. In the blink of an eye, another half a year passed. During this time, you had almost traversed the entire Southern Regions. Until today, in a forest not far from the Desert of Death, your father Jiang Fushan noticed something unusual. He sensed a trace of his past life''s spiritual consciousness fluctuations nearby. However, he couldn''t precisely pinpoint the exact location. With this information, you quickly used your Divine Sense to explore the area. Under your Divine Sense, the situation in the forest was clear. You discovered a vige in the forest. In the past, you would have ignored this ce. Because, in your Divine Sense, everything in the vige was normal, with no anomalies or cultivators found. But now, your father sensed his past life''s spiritual consciousness fluctuations nearby. So there was a problem. Based on previous deductions, your sister Jiang Ruxuan was highly likely to be with the legacy your father left in his past life. Jiang Ruxuan, a living person, wouldn''t be living underground. And the only inhabited ce nearby was this vige. Thinking of this, you smiled slightly and murmured, "Finally found it." Hopefully, this sister knows something useful! Chapter 261: A weed! After roughly determining the target, you and your father, Jiang Fushan, instantly appeared outside the vige. The vige was small, with only about a dozen households. You could observe it all in one nce. At first, you didn''t find any girl who matched your sister, Jiang Ruxuan. It wasn''t until you used the Chaos Heavy Pupil to observe everything in the vige bit by bit that you discovered something unusual. In this vige, there was actually a Xu Mi Sub-Realm! You had seen this Xu Mi Sub-Realm before during a simtion at the Heavenly Profound Temple. The real Heavenly Profound Temple was hidden within it. Unexpectedly, there was also a Xu Mi Sub-Realm hidden in this vige.No wonder the exhaustive search by other cultivators had yielded nothing. The concealment of the Xu Mi Sub-Realm was too strong. In this vige, the Xu Mi Sub-Realm was hidden within an ordinary small grass at the vige entrance. If you hadn''t been certain there was something wrong here, who would deliberately inspect a weed? In fact, you should have thought of this earlier. You were well aware of how concealed the Xu Mi Sub-Realm at the Heavenly Profound Temple was. You could only say that you were careless. Of course, this also had to do with the fact that the Xu Mi Sub-Realm here was too advanced. The Xu Mi Sub-Realm left by Guo Qing at the Heavenly Profound Temple could already be sensed by your current strength. And you hadn''t seen a second Xu Mi Sub-Realm. You had rigidly assumed that the Xu Mi Sub-Realm was just something at the Great Luo realm, which couldn''t escape your detection. Who knew there were Xu Mi Sub-Realms of such a high level! You shook your head, constantly reflecting on yourself. Just because you don''t understand doesn''t mean it doesn''t exist! In the future, you must never make absolute conclusions based on shallow knowledge. Afterward, you directly brought your father, Jiang Fushan, to the weed hiding the Xu Mi Sub-Realm and told him it might be inside. Your father, Jiang Fushan, had already regained his memory. Hearing your words, he naturally thought of the Xu Mi Sub-Realm as well. He just couldn''t understand how Su Mushuang could possess such a powerful Xu Mi Sub-Realm. Previously, he thought it was a treasure used to conceal one''s aura. After all, in his memory, Su Mushuang had a gem that could hide her aura and briefly evade Dao-level detection. If she used that gem, it could also evade the Saint realm''s detection. Before this, you thought the same. After all, you knew about that gem too. During a previous cross-time simtion, Su Mushuang even wanted to use that gem to help you escape. Of course, none of that mattered now. No matter what, you had found it. But how to open this Xu Mi Sub-Realm? Without the corresponding method, should you forcefully break in? No, doing so would put the people inside the Xu Mi Sub-Realm in great danger. In the end, you chose to "knock." ording to your father, the people inside the Xu Mi Sub-Realm could hear sounds from the outside world. Since you couldn''t force your way in, you could only let the people insidee out on their own. Then, a bizarre scene unfolded. You and your father, Jiang Fushan, squatted at the entrance of the dpidated vige, shouting at a weed! For a moment, the original residents of the vige were all rmed. The vigers looked at you as if you were two fools. Who talks to weeds? Naturally, you didn''t care about the looks from mortals. However, your calls seemed to have no effect. You and your father, Jiang Fushan, called out next to the weed for a long time, but there was no response from the Xu Mi Sub-Realm. You began to doubt whether there was anyone inside the Xu Mi Sub-Realm. Whether you had made a mistake. Of course, you knew that was basically impossible. Your father, Jiang Fushan, also said he sensed the spiritual resonance of his past life within the weed. Since the inheritance left by his past life was confirmed to be inside, Jiang Ruxuan should also be there. You guessed that the other party didn''t recognize you, so they didn''t dare toe out. Even though you had already revealed your identity. But Jiang Ruxuan had left the Jiang Family when she was still in swaddling clothes and had never seen you! It''s understandable that she wouldn''t believe you. Thinking of this, you exchanged a nce with your father, Jiang Fushan. Then, you directly uprooted the weed. If you can''t call them out, take it with you. Even if they don''t recognize you, they should recognize Su Mushuang!n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om You decided to take the weed back to the Jiang Family. Although Su Mushuang had lost her memory, Jiang Ruxuan shouldn''t have. As long as Su Mushuang made some noise outside the Xu Mi Sub-Realm and showed herself, Jiang Ruxuan would likelye out. Once you figured it out, you were relieved. But inside the Xu Mi Sub-Realm, Jiang Ruxuan was stomping her feet in anxiety. "What should I do, what should I do! Those two people outside are pulling up the grass." "Mother, where are you? Why haven''t youe back!" "Bad people are trying to steal our Xu Mi Sub-Realm." Jiang Ruxuan almost wanted toe out and fight you. But then she thought, if you could discover the Xu Mi Sub-Realm, your strength must be formidable; she, at her mere Spirit Transformation Realm, definitely couldn''t win! She could only endure, hoping her mother would find her way back soon to save her. In a few minutes, you and Jiang Fushan had already returned to the Jiang Family Mansion in Green Hills City. The Southern Regions were too small for you now. If not for amodating your father, Jiang Fushan''s speed, you could have returned in an instant. After returning to the Jiang Family Mansion, your father, Jiang Fushan, immediately summoned Su Mushuang. The amnesiac Su Mushuang had no memory of the Xu Mi Sub-Realm''s existence. But that didn''t matter! Because the moment Su Mushuang appeared, Jiang Ruxuan from the Xu Mi Sub-Realm came out on her own. As soon as Jiang Ruxuan appeared, she rushed into Su Mushuang''s arms. She kept voicing her grievances. Asking why her mother didn''te to pick her up personally. She was so scared just now; wait a minute... However, Su Mushuang looked puzzled. This red-d girl hugging her; although she felt a bit familiar, she didn''t have a daughter! Being called "Mother" out of the blue, especially in front of her husband and son. What if they misunderstood! So, Su Mushuang quickly pushed Jiang Ruxuan away, softly reprimanding, "Youngdy, please have some respect!" Chapter 262: Not to go near the door Afterwards, she ran to Jiang Fushan, repeatedly exining that Jiang Ruxuan had mistaken her for someone else; she really wasn''t her daughter! Meanwhile, Jiang Ruxuan stood to the side, tears streaming down like rain, choking as she stared at Su Mushuang, "Mother, what''s wrong? Do you not want me anymore?" Seeing this scene, you and your father, Jiang Fushan, exchanged a nod, signaling him to first take Mother Su Mushuang away. You exined the situation to Jiang Ruxuan. Meanwhile, your father went to persuade Su Mushuang. This was something you had discussed through voice transmission before returning. Once Su Mushuang left, you patiently began to exin to Jiang Ruxuan. Of course, this exnation was embellished and processed by you. The gist of what you said was that back then, Su Mushuang and your father Jiang Fushan encountered a formidable enemy and had no choice but to separate.It was only recently that they found each other again. However, they once again encountered enemies. Due to an attack, Su Mushuang suffered memory issues. Initially, Jiang Ruxuan didn''t believe it. Finally, when you mentioned the ancestral inheritance from your father''s past life that she carried, Jiang Ruxuan wavered. After a whole half-day of exnation, Jiang Ruxuan was half-convinced to acknowledge you as her elder brother. She also epted the fact that her mother had amnesia and forgot about her. On the other hand, your father used a simr approach to persuade Su Mushuang. A dayter, the four of you, on the surface, epted each other as family. Yes, only on the surface! Su Mushuang and Jiang Ruxuan still had some doubts. Su Mushuang suspected that you and Jiang Ruxuan were conspiring to deceive her. Could it be that your father secretly had a daughter outside and insisted she was hers? Anyway, after that, Su Mushuang always looked at him strangely. As for Jiang Ruxuan? She was slightly better than Su Mushuang. But she also had doubts, suspecting that your father Jiang Fushan coveted her mother''s beauty and caused Su Mushuang''s amnesia. And you were the aplice? Of course, she wasn''t entirely sure. After all, if it were as she thought, there was no need to bring her back too. But no matter what, Jiang Fushan taking her mother away was a fact. She didn''t have a good attitude towards your father. Thus, in a world of suspicion from two women, your father was the only one who ended up hurt! As far as you know, your father lived somewhat miserably in the days that followed. You saw all this but were helpless. You could only wish your father good luck! As for finding out about Jiang Ruxuan''s situation? Asking if she knew any secrets? You didn''t rush to speak. You needed to wait a bit. Jiang Ruxuan was too wary now and might not tell the truth. Anyway, she was already at the Jiang Family Mansion. There was no rush. Time flew by, and two years passed. In the fifteenth year, one day, in a deste ce, tribtion lightning roared in the void. You looked at the woman not far away and smiled slightly. Little Peach was about to ascend to immortality! With abundant resources, Little Peach''s time to undergo the tribtion and be an immortal was greatly shortened. This breakthrough didn''t attract any Saint realm experts from the Immortal Realm to cause trouble. The Immortal Realm had long known about the disappearance of many Saint realm experts in the Southern Regions. Now, the saints in the Immortal Realm were trembling, believing that your father and mother had recovered. They were too busy hiding to daree looking for trouble! After Little Peach''s breakthrough, another ten years passed unknowingly. In the twenty-fifth year, your sister Jiang Ruxuan also faced the tribtion to be an immortal. Once again, you took on the role of protector. After sessfully oveing the tribtion, Jiang Ruxuan walked up to you and, for the first time, called you "Elder Brother!" You smiled and nodded. It seemed Jiang Ruxuan had fully epted that you were family. The resources over the years were not given in vain! You silently thought, "Thanks to the million-year umtion of the Immortal Arrival Sect, thanks to Shen Wutian!" Now that Jiang Ruxuan had epted you as family. It was about time to ask her some things. However, it was best not to be too direct. A woman''s mind is hard to fathom. If not handled well, it might copse the hard-earned trust. You started chatting casually with Jiang Ruxuan. Asking her how she and Su Mushuang had been living before? What did they usually do? These were trivial matters, and Jiang Ruxuan didn''t hide them. She recounted her past with Su Mushuang in detail. ording to her, since she could remember, she mostly lived in the Xu Mi Sub-Realm. asionally, when she went out, her mother Su Mushuang would have her carry a stone-like treasure. Hearing this, you knew that the stone-like treasure was likely a gem that could conceal one''s aura. This was very suspicious! If Su Mushuang carried that treasure to conceal her aura, it could be said to avoid detection by people from the Immortal Realm. But why give it to Jiang Ruxuan? What realm was Jiang Ruxuan in before? Who would pay attention to her? Could it be to hide from the Immortal Arrival Sect''s Immortal ves? No, that''s not right. To hide from the Immortal Arrival Sect''s Immortal ves, such a high-level treasure wasn''t necessary. Su Mushuang could solve it with a simple Breath Concealing Talisman! Could it be that Su Mushuang didn''t know how to use a Breath Concealing Talisman? How could that be? Such a simple thing, let alone a strong person like Su Mushuang, even an ordinary Tribtion Crossing Realm individual could easily master it with a little learning.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om So, Jiang Ruxuan had a secret! Could it be that Su Mushuang left the Jiang Family Mansion not entirely because of you, but also because of Jiang Ruxuan? You quickly used the Chaos Heavy Pupil to look at Jiang Ruxuan''s information again. Jiang Ruxuan: Mortal Immortal realm; Talent: Immortal Body! Summary: A favored child of heaven. No problem at all. Could it be that the Chaos Heavy Pupil''s level wasn''t high enough? Just like when you used the Eye of Insight with Purple Talent to observe Little Peach. It seemed like you saw everything, but you didn''t see the essence? However, the Chaos Heavy Pupil could glimpse even a bit of the essence of a cross-time powerhouse like Little Peach; it could also see through your father. If it couldn''t see through Jiang Ruxuan, that would be unlikely! Whether in terms of cultivation speed or anomalies, your sister Jiang Ruxuan couldn''tpare to Little Peach or your father Jiang Fushan! Suddenly, you thought of a possibility. Could it be that the information seen by the Chaos Heavy Pupil didn''t include the summary? The summary was just a conclusion based on the information you already knew,bined with what the Chaos Heavy Pupil saw? If so, perhaps the Chaos Heavy Pupil hadn''t fully seen through Little Peach and your father Jiang Fushan either. Indeed, much of the information was deduced from previous simtions. It seemed there was a real possibility of this. While you were specting wildly! Jiang Ruxuan was already lost in the beautiful memories with her mother Su Mushuang, still talking to herself. Most of it was trivial matters. Suddenly, a sentence from Jiang Ruxuan instantly caught your attention! She said, "Mother sometimes acts strange, she always tells me not to go near the door." Chapter 263: Saints with sallow faces and emaciated bodies! Jiang Ruxuan''s words immediately made your expression change, pulling you back from your thoughts. "A gate? What gate? Is it the ''World Gate'' from the ancient relic?" You think it''s highly likely; it should be that ''World Gate''! Besides that, you really can''t think of any other gate that would be so special! But why can''t Jiang Ruxuan get close to the ''World Gate''? Does she have some connection with the ''World Gate''? You can''t figure it out at all. Your understanding of the ''World Gate'' isn''t much! In fact, whether the gate in the ancient relic is the ''World Gate'' is still just your spection.Should you ask Jiang Ruxuan? But judging from her words, it''s clear she doesn''t know either. It''s all because of your mother, Su Mushuang''s instructions. While you were lost in thought, Jiang Ruxuan continued speaking. "It''s funny to say; when I was in the Sumeru Space, I never lived in a house; I always lived in the open!" "Until Mother lost her memory, and you brought me back to the Jiang Family; it was my first time living in a house, my first time seeing a real door up close!" At this point, Jiang Ruxuan suddenly smiled at you and said, "Brother, I''m a cultivator, what should I fear about a door! I don''t know what Mother was thinking back then!" "For over ten years, I''ve lived in the Jiang Family Mansion, and I see doors every day, and nothing has happened." Hearing Jiang Ruxuan''s question, you just gave an awkward smile without answering! You don''t know either! How are you supposed to respond? However, from Jiang Ruxuan''s words, you gathered another piece of information. That is, Su Mushuang has never seen that so-called ''gate'' either. Otherwise, she wouldn''t have gone to such lengths to keep Jiang Ruxuan away from all doors. Even so, one thing is certain, Jiang Ruxuan has a big secret. This secret is rted to the gate, and only Su Mushuang knows it. But now Su Mushuang has lost her memory. This mystery can''t be solved. Unless you let Jiang Ruxuan approach the ''World Gate'' in the ancient relic and see what happens! But Su Mushuang has always prevented Jiang Ruxuan from approaching the gate. Clearly, she believes that if Jiang Ruxuan gets close to the gate, something bad will happen. Given this, is it really okay for you to take Jiang Ruxuan close now? After a long time, you shook your head! Muttering to yourself, "Forget it, let''s wait a bit longer!" Trying now would be too risky. If something unexpected happens and Jiang Ruxuan gets into trouble, Father would be heartbroken! He''s really doting on Jiang Ruxuan now. Of course, besides that, you''re also worried about making things worse, causing the simtion to end prematurely! If that gate is indeed the ''World Gate'', it might connect to the ce where the Innate Demon God ''Yu'' resides. If something unexpected happens and a group of Innate Demon Gods is drawn here, you might be in big trouble. What if that gate isn''t the ''World Gate''? It must be something on the same level as the ''World Gate''. After all, you''ve already tested its strength. It could also bring unknown dangers. In any case, taking Jiang Ruxuan near that gate now is not the best choice.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om It''s better to wait until a thousand yearster, when the world is ending, and the simtion is about to conclude, that would be the best time. After all, by then, no one would be able to survive. Without further words, you escorted Jiang Ruxuan back to the Jiang Family Mansion. Afterward, you didn''t go back to secluded cultivation. The decades of cultivation before had yielded very little progress. You know it''s because your current cultivation level is too high. Although you obtained many resources from the Immortal Arrival Sect, the high-end ones that could elerate your cultivation are almost nonexistent. Now, breaking through isn''t something you can achieve in a short time. Given this, you decide to first investigate and understand all the things you nned to before. Then go to the Immortal Realm to "borrow" some high-end resources for cultivation. In the twenty-sixth year, you head to the Desert of Death once again. This time, you intend to go to the Dragon Tomb! What''s in the Dragon Tomb? You''re quite curious. During previous simtions, you never truly delved into the Dragon Tomb. Now it''s time to uncover the truth of the Dragon Tomb. Arriving at the Desert of Death, you''re already close to the ancient relic. You think for a moment and decide to take a look there as well. It''s been many years since youst checked on the ''World Gate''! You wonder if those dozens of Saints from the Immortal Realm have been effective, and how many cracks are on the gate? As you approach the ancient relic. From afar, you see a group of Saints looking emaciated, and you raise an eyebrow. What''s going on? They''re Saints, after all, why do they look like refugees! Soon, you hear Shen Wutian scolding those Saints from the Immortal Realm: "Who told you to stop? Do you want to die? You''ve already gone a second without attacking!" "What? You''re ring at me? Not convinced, are you!" Shen Wutian points at one of the Saints from the Immortal Realm and snorts coldly. Then you see him perform a hand seal. Instantly, that Saint from the Immortal Realm starts convulsing. Seeing this, the corner of your mouth twitches. Well, now you know why these people look so emaciated. Turns out Shen Wutian is using the control technique you taught him to settle personal scores! This was somewhat within your expectations. But you didn''t expect these Saint realm experts to be yed with like this! "Should I stop this?" Although you don''t care about the lives of these Saints from the Immortal Realm, you still need them to help attack the ''World Gate''! Thinking of this, you prepare to reveal yourself. However, the next scene makes you abandon the idea of intervening. After Shen Wutian torments that Saint. The other Saints from the Immortal Realm seem invigorated, attacking the ''World Gate'' with fervor! Each one of them is working hard, even performing beyond their usual capabilities. You nod, muttering to yourself, "Not bad, not bad! It seems Shen Wutian is quite effective in his management!" Since it doesn''t affect their attack on the ''World Gate'', you can''t be bothered to interfere. However, the gate doesn''t seem to have suffered much damage. You frown slightly, observing carefully. You notice that there''s only a hairline crack on the gate. This wasn''t caused by the recent wave of attacks. It''s just a tiny crack on the entire gate. It''s the result of these Saints from the Immortal Realm over the past twenty years. You sigh lightly, "To destroy this gate directly, it''s a long and arduous task!" It seems that when you go to the Immortal Realmter, you''ll not only need to "borrow" resources but also some manpower. Chapter 264: Dragon Tomb is hidden! Chapter 264: Dragon Tomb is hidden! After understanding the situation here, you didn''t linger and left directly. As you departed, Bai Moyu, who had been observing from the sidelines, watched you leave with a hint of a smile. Muttering to himself, "It seems the young master doesn''t care about the lives of these people!" With that, he let out a sinisterugh. Bai Moyu approached a Saint from the Immortal Realm. He then executed the technique you had taught him. "Ah!" A series of screams echoed. Indeed, when you went to the ancient relic, although you concealed your presence, Shen Wutian, who was only a Quasi-Saint, couldn''t detect you. But Bai Moyu, at the peak of the Saint realm, sensed your presence.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//omIn fact, it wasn''t just Bai Moyu; some of the top Saints from the Immortal Realm also sensed you. Their vigorous attacks earlier were partly due to fear of Shen Wutian causing trouble, and partly because they sensed your inspection and wanted to make an impression. You were unaware of all this. Of course, even if you knew, you wouldn''t care. You didn''t intentionally hide; you only concealed your presence to avoid Bai Moyu. Hoping he would be sensible enough not toe fawning over you! Everything else was just a coincidence. After leaving the ancient relic, you headed straight for the dragon''sir in the Desert of Death! You nned to get the dragon egg first. From previous simtions, it seemed that the dragon egg was significantly connected to the Dragon Tomb. Entering the Dragon Tomb with the dragon egg might yield different results. In an instant, you appeared in the dragon¡¯sir. The demonic dragon, thousands of meters long, didn''t notice you as it was still dozing. You stared at the demonic dragon, contemting whether to seek revenge again. Previously, this demonic dragon had swallowed you several times. Ultimately, you shook your head. Forget it, this demonic dragon might still be useful; better to spare its life for now. Once you''re sure it¡¯s of no use and has no ties to you, then you can roast it. With that thought, you silently took the dragon egg without alerting the demonic dragon. Then, you delved into the bottom of the desert, heading toward the Dragon Tomb. Soon, you stepped into the Dragon Tomb. Instantly, you sensed the difference between this ce and the outside world. This ce was undoubtedly a small world! Previously, you suspected this, butcked the strength to confirm it. Now, it was verified. Besides this, you discovered another issue. Thews here were somewhat special. This special nature wasn''t like the ancient relic, differing from the outside world. Thews in the Dragon Tomb were mostly consistent with the outside world, but seemed to have an additional strand ofw. You couldn¡¯t even name thisw. If you had to say, you might call it the "Dragon"w! Thisw, you felt, was beyond the grasp of anyone but the Dragon n. Unbeknownst to you, this wasn''t aw but the innate Divine Ability of the Dragon n. Many true dragons perished within this Dragon Tomb, and their innate Divine Abilities gathered, forming something akin to aw. This could be considered an exclusivew or a powerful innate Divine Ability of the Dragon n. However, only the Dragon n could inherit thisw and Divine Ability. Or perhaps through some special means. In reality, Jiang Yifeng was startled upon reaching this point! He thought that perhaps this innate Divine Ability of the Dragon n, or exclusivew, was the true secret of the Dragon Tomb. Could it be that the entire Dragon Tomb was meant for the dragon egg? To let the dragon egg inherit the innate Divine Abilities of numerous dragon ancestors. In this way, once the dragon egg hatched, its talent would be extraordinary, far surpassing its predecessors. Jiang Yifeng considered this a strong possibility. Perhaps this was also why the dragon egg hadn''t hatched yet. It hadn''t inherited the Dragon n''s Divine Abilities from the Dragon Tomb. However, Jiang Yifeng felt something was amiss. If his guess was correct. Shouldn''t the dragon egg be ced within the Dragon Tomb? How could the dragon egg inherit the Dragon n''s Divine Abilities without contact with the Dragon Tomb? No, that''s not right. Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng thought that the dragon egg and the Dragon Tomb were deliberately moved to the Southern Regions. It was very likely that the dragon egg was originally inside the Dragon Tomb. Did someone take the dragon egg out? Why would they do that? To seize the Dragon n''s Divine Abilities? Jiang Yifeng recalled an instance where a Saint from the Immortal Realm extracted something from the demonic dragon after it swallowed the dragon egg and ascended. Could that person be the instigator? Was that the method to seize the Dragon n''s Divine Abilities? Jiang Yifeng was puzzled and couldn''t figure it out! But he felt something was off. If the method to seize was that simple. They could have force-fed the dragon egg to the demonic dragon, let it break through to the Immortal Realm, and then seize it directly. The key point is, if the one who orchestrated this wanted to seize the Dragon n''s Divine Abilities. There was no need to deliberately choose the Southern Regions. Unless, the orchestrator was in the Southern Regions? That Saint who extracted something from the demonic dragon wasn''t the orchestrator. Just someone who knew some secrets and wanted to intercept? Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng had a terrifying thought. Could it be that he himself orchestrated the Southern Regions? Did he return millions of years ago in a simtion? Then moved the Dragon Tomb and dragon egg? To seize the Dragon n''s Divine Abilities? In that case, moving the dragon egg and Dragon Tomb to the Southern Regions seemed reasonable. Quickly, Jiang Yifeng shook his head! "No, impossible!" Although he wasn''t a good person, he knew the dragon egg was rted to the Azure Dragon. He certainly wouldn''t do such a thing. He could be sure of that. Moreover, he didn''t know how to seize the Dragon n''s Divine Abilities. It definitely wasn''t him. Jiang Yifeng felt there was still someone else orchestrating. But he didn''t know who that person was. From previous simtions, he only knew it was someone in white. However, Bai Moyu and Shen Wutian might know. Why didn''t his simted self ask them? Jiang Yifeng thought about it and figured he might have forgotten or not considered it. After all, that person in white didn''t have much presence in previous simtions. Plus, this time there were many things he wanted to understand. With that in mind, Jiang Yifeng decided that once his simted self left the Dragon Tomb, he needed to conduct a deep simtion. He must find out who this person in white was. On reflection, this person in white, who previously had little presence, seemed to have many mysteries. The actions of this person in white were highly targeted. The four fierce beasts were all moved to the Southern Regions by him. And these four fierce beasts, as of now, were all rted to him. Finding this person might unravel many mysteries. Having made his decision, Jiang Yifeng stopped pondering. He continued to look at the simtor. Chapter 265: Comprehend the laws of space, and conduct deep simulation again After a brief moment of contemtion, you take the dragon egg out of the storage ring. You wonder if the dragon egg will have any "chemical reaction" with the Dragon Tomb. As soon as you take out the dragon egg, you immediately sense the unique "Dragon" Law within the Dragon Tomb surging toward the egg. At the same time, numerous dragon souls filled with resentment within the Dragon Tomb begin to roar. Their voices echo throughout the entire Dragon Tomb. It''s as if they are weing the return of their king. You witness all of this. You do not interfere, allowing it to develop freely. You want to see what the final oue will be.Perhaps you can deduce something from it! Time quietly slips by. In the blink of an eye, nine days have passed. By now, the Dragon Tomb is continuously copsing and cracking; the roars of the dragon souls can no longer be heard, nor can the presence of the "Dragon" Law be sensed. You look at the dragon egg that has absorbed the "Dragon" Law and arge amount of dragon soul resentment; you frown slightly, feeling puzzled: "Is it over?" But the dragon egg hasn''t hatched? You don''t even sense any signs of life within the dragon egg. You feel something is amiss! However, you don''t dwell on it. The Dragon Tomb is about to shatter, and a void storm is imminent. You know that the void storm contains not only the Law of Wind and the Law of Destruction. More importantly, it contains the Law of Space. After all, the void storm is created by the shattering of a world space. This is a great opportunity toprehend the Law of Space. Previously, you could break space, but you hadn''t truly mastered the Law of Space. This is one of the supremews, with extremely high potential. You don''t want to miss this opportunity for enlightenment. Thus, you directly store the dragon egg back into the storage space. The dragon egg is stored away smoothly. Your perception was not wrong; the dragon egg indeed shows no signs of life. Soon after, the small world of the Dragon Tombpletely copses, countless spatial turbulences appear, and the void storm sweeps in. Seeing this, you quickly swallow a few Enlightenment Pills; then initiate Inevitable Enlightenment. Instantly, you feel your thoughts be exceptionally active. You observe the spatial turbulences, constantly pondering. You reach out to try to capture them, attempting to devour them with the Taotie Divine Body. With each attempt. You gradually sense the power of space. You discover that space seems to beposed of countless tiny particles. These particles, even with your current powerful cultivation, cannot be probed with Divine Sense. Yet they undeniably exist. You begin to try to manipte those spatial particles. Once, twice, three times.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om You fail time and again. Who knows how much time has passed. A colorless, formless de of space appears in your hand. You''ve seeded. You have formed a de of space from the spatial particles. When you swing the de of space, it instantly disappears into the void. When the de of space reappears, it is already thousands of miles away. Seeing this, you smile slightly, eximing, "Truly worthy of being a supremew!" You can feel that the de of space just now, if not for someone whoprehended the Law of Space, would not be detectable at all. If you were in battle, and the enemy hadn''t mastered the Law of Space, they would have to endure your attack head-on. You know that now, you have only grasped a mere fraction of the Law of Space. With deeperprehension, you could perform even more operations. For instance, trapping someone with countless spaces, then using numerous des of space to kill them. Invisible cages and attacks. Who could withstand that? No wonder there''s a saying that when time is absent, space reigns supreme! Thinking of this, you can''t help but feel a bit smug; thinking to yourself, "Time, space, I want them all!" Then you immerse yourself once again inprehending the Law of Space. Time passes, and in the blink of an eye, ten years have gone by. In the thirty-fifth year, yourprehension of the Law of Space reaches the peak of the minorpletion stage, just a step away from majorpletion. Unfortunately, your enlightenment time has ended. Of course, you still have about ten Enlightenment Pills, and during these ten years, you''ve umted three more instances of Inevitable Enlightenment. However, the spatial turbulences and void storm caused by the copse of the Dragon Tomb ended years ago. Now, you''re surrounded by a tranquil void. Even if you use the Enlightenment Pills and Inevitable Enlightenment now, without the intense spatial power to impact you, the effect won''t be as good. You sigh with some regret. But there''s no rush, there will be other opportunities. This time, just the space shattering caused by the Dragon Tomb''s destruction allowed you toprehend the power of space to the peak of minorpletion. A thousand yearster, when the world is destroyed; the spatial shattering will be even more intense. Even if you can''tst long in it, there will surely be some gains! In this simtion, reaching majorpletion of the Law of Space shouldn''t be difficult. Without further thought, you take a step and leave this space; returning to the Southern Regions! In reality, Jiang Yifeng sees this. He knows the journey to the Dragon Tomb in the simtion haspletely ended. ording to the initial n. Next, he should be looking for a way to the Immortal Realm. However, the simted version of himselfcks some information. He probably won''t inquire about the man in white. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng feels it''s time for a deep simtion. Without hesitation. He silentlymands, "Start deep simtion for 100 years!" In this deep simtion, besides preparing to investigate the situation of the man in white, Jiang Yifeng also ns to enhance his skills in formations and alchemy. Although these two auxiliary skills don''t seem to provide much help. He has a feeling in his heart; that these two will definitelye in handy. He doesn''t know if it''s just an illusion. Of course, even if the feeling is wrong, it doesn''t matter. Learning more can never be a bad thing! [Ding, starting deep simtion for 100 years, deducting origin values; remaining origin values.] As the simtor''s voice sounds. Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness instantly enters the simtion. The first thing he does is observe his surroundings. Still in the Desert of Death. After confirming his position, Jiang Yifeng takes a step forward; appearing in the ancient relic. Without any unnecessary words. Jiang Yifeng directly finds Shen Wutian and Bai Moyu. After bringing them aside, he asks directly, "Do you remember who brought the four great fierce beasts of the Southern Regions here?" Chapter 266: The six-person list summarized by Jiang Fushan Upon hearing Jiang Yifeng''s question, Shen Wutian and Bai Moyu both breathed a sigh of relief. They had thought it was about the mistreatment of the captives from the Immortal Realm, and that Jiang Yifeng had found out and was going to give them trouble! Since it wasn''t, they felt much more at ease. After a moment of silence, Shen Wutian was the first to answer Jiang Yifeng''s question. "I only saw that person from a distance, but at the time, my strength was too low to clearly see his face." Jiang Yifeng was not satisfied with this answer. But thinking about it, it made sense. The man in white came to the Southern Regions during the era of Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya. Based on previous deductions, Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya were at the level of Golden Immortal or Supreme Unity Golden Immortal at that time. Shen Wutian, who was a level weaker than them, would have had even lower strength.At that time, Shen Wutian couldn''t possibly have had close contact with the man in white. Seeing from a distance, it was normal not to see his face clearly. So Jiang Yifeng turned his gaze to Bai Moyu.N?v(el)B\\jnn At that time, Bai Moyu''s strength was at the Saint realm, he should know, right? Feeling Jiang Yifeng''s gaze, Bai Moyu gave an awkward smile and said somewhat embarrassedly. "Actually, I don''t know who that person is either!" "I only know that person is very mysterious, never showing his true face; and his strength was very strong, I couldn''t see through his disguise at the time!" At this point, Bai Moyu had a sudden sh of inspiration. He quickly added. "Young Master, although I don''t know who that man in white is now, I will definitely find out for you." "Please give me three days, Young Master!" Hearing this, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but roll his eyes. "This Bai Moyu really knows how to tter." "And he''s quite the schemer." "Do you think I don''t know you''re nning to use these three days to interrogate those captive Immortal Realm Saints?" Jiang Yifeng had guessed Bai Moyu''s intentions. But he didn''t expose him. In fact, letting Bai Moyu and the others interrogate the captives could save him some effort. Since that''s the case. Let him have this chance to tter! Thinking this, Jiang Yifeng nodded and instructed Bai Moyu to get on with it. Seeing he finally got the chance to curry favor, Bai Moyu grinned and rushed towards the captive Immortal Realm Saints. Seeing this, Shen Wutian also understood. He couldn''t miss this opportunity to curry favor either. Although he seemed to be in a good position now, he still had Jiang Yifeng''s control mark on him. Even though he didn''t like ttering. But who knows, maybe Jiang Yifeng liked this kind of thing? Shen Wutian thought, if he could make Jiang Yifeng happy, maybe he could lift the restrictions on him? So, after asking Jiang Yifeng for permission, he also turned and left. Not long after, Jiang Yifeng heard miserable criesing from the direction of the "World Gate." "Tsk tsk tsk... how miserable!" Jiang Yifeng shook his head and then used his divine sense to block his ears. Three days passed in the blink of an eye. During these three days, Jiang Yifeng did not leave. He was waiting for the results of Bai Moyu and Shen Wutian''s interrogation. However, the results were not very good. Those captive Immortal Realm Saints only knew that there was indeed such a man in white. But no one knew exactly who he was. This answer was somewhat unexpected, yet not surprising! Since that man in white deliberately concealed his identity, it was normal that Bai Moyu didn''t know, and those Immortal Realm Saints should know even less. ?§¡ After all, no matter how you looked at it, that man in white didn''t seem to be on the same side as the Immortal Realm. After Jiang Fushan and Su Mushuang disappeared in the Southern Regions. Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya broke the sealing formation and escaped from the Southern Regions. Someone wanted to destroy the Southern Regions, but this man in white stopped them. Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng thought, could his father know? Thinking of this, he didn''t hesitate and took a step, disappearing into the ancient relic. Leaving Bai Moyu and Shen Wutian looking at each other. Returning to the Jiang Family Mansion. Jiang Yifeng directly asked his father Jiang Fushan about the man in white. And he told him everything he knew about the man in white. "You''re saying that a powerful figure dressed in white stopped the Immortal Realm from destroying the Southern Regions millions of years ago?" "And then moved the four fierce beasts to the Southern Regions? Blocking the crack in the sealing formation?" "That''s very contradictory. If he wanted to help the Southern Regions, he shouldn''t have blocked the formation''s crack and allowed the Immortal Realm to establish the Immortal Arrival Sect." "What was this person''s purpose in doing so?" Jiang Fushan was also puzzled after hearing everything! It was indeed contradictory, but Jiang Yifeng had some guesses. Although he was looking for this man in white, Jiang Yifeng didn''t consider him an enemy. He thought that this person might be paving the way for him. He just couldn''t figure out who this person could be at the moment. As for why he had to find this person. It was simply because Jiang Yifeng felt that this person must know a lot. If he could find him, he might learn many secrets. Of course, he couldn''t tell his father Jiang Fushan about this. Once he mentioned these things, it could very well expose the existence of the simtor. Although his father was trustworthy, it was better not to expose the simtor''s existence if possible. After all, the simtor itself prevented such things from happening, clearly indicating that exposure would bring bad consequences. At this moment, Jiang Fushan also fell into deep thought. He temporarily set aside the purpose of that man in white. Instead, he analyzed from the person''s strength and attire! He was thinking about which powerful figures were ustomed to wearing white? Cultivators generally wore treasure robes. Using color as a broad ssification was actually the simplest method. In his past life, Jiang Fushan was a half-Dao level existence, and he basically knew most of the powerful figures in the world. After some elimination. Jiang Fushan found that there were only a few dozen Saint-level and above powerhouses who were ustomed to wearing white. Then he thought about the person negotiating with the Immortal Realm to temporarily protect the Southern Regions. He could also temporarily rule out those radical factions of the Immortal Realm. In this way, it seemed that only five or six people met this criterion. Soon, Jiang Fushan left. He returned to his study and began writing continuously. After a whole half day, Jiang Fushan found Jiang Yifeng again. And handed him a list of six people. Saying that these six people could be the focus of investigation. Jiang Yifeng, who had originally lost hope, was suddenly delighted. Indeed, having an elder at home is like having a treasure! Being able to narrow down to six people among so many Saints was already excellent. It could save him a lot of investigation time. Jiang Yifeng eagerly flipped through the list his father gave him. Opening the first page. Jiang Yifeng was immediately shocked. This was too detailed! Not only were there names and realms, but even the ces they frequently visited and where they cultivated were marked. Of course, Jiang Yifeng also knew that some of this information might be outdated. After all, it was from his father''s past life''s memory, and so much time had passed; perhaps those people''s habits had changed! But, it didn''t matter, he would remember it first! The first person, Liang Xuan; peak of the Saint realm... Didn''t know him; no problem, remember it first! The second, Peng Feiyu; half-Dao level... Didn''t know him... The third... ... The sixth: Ye Xiaoqing, peak of the half-Dao realm (fell from the Dao-level); whereabouts uncertain, but often cultivates deep in the chaos! Chapter 267: Please, ancestor, emerge Upon seeing Ye Xiaoqing''s name, a loud bang echoed in Jiang Yifeng''s mind! Ye Xiaoqing? Could it be the same Ye Xiaoqing from his previous simtions? Recalling everything from before and connecting it to the cultivation level of the Ye Xiaoqing on this list, Jiang Yifeng felt it must be the same person. During the cross-time simtion, it was evident that Ye Xiaoqing was a true Chosen. She was not a bit weaker than Dahu; there was a significant chance she could break through to the Dao-level. It''s possible for Chosen ones to share the same name, but the probability of such high-level Chosen sharing the same name is very slim. Jiang Yifeng''s eyes brightened slightly, and he murmured, "I was too careless!" He had previously thought that the man in white should be someone rted to him.He had considered Liang Dahu and Ye Xiaoqing. But he remembered that in the simtion, Liang Dahu was always shown wearing animal skins. As for Ye Xiaoqing? The simtor never disyed what type of clothes she habitually wore. Of course, this wasn''t the main reason Jiang Yifeng excluded Ye Xiaoqing. The main reason was that when Jiang Yifeng was transported to the Divine Martial Continent with the Death Substitute Doll, he received some fragmented memories. In those memories, Ye Xiaoqing wore clothes of all colors, without a fixed style or color. But thinking carefully, most of those memory fragments were from when Liang Dahu and Ye Xiaoqing hadn''t started cultivating yet. At that time, Ye Xiaoqing was still a vige girl, wearing whatever was avable. She hadn''t formed a style of dress yet! This was precisely why Jiang Yifeng had ruled out this possibility early on. Thinking back now, it really shouldn''t have been dismissed! If the man in white was Ye Xiaoqing, then many things could barely make sense! Ye Xiaoqing had deep ties with him. Her arrangements in the Southern Regions, paving the way for him, seemed reasonable. However, there were still things Jiang Yifeng couldn''t understand. It wasn''t strange that Ye Xiaoqing knew his identity and about the Southern Regions. When the Death Substitute Doll transported him to the Divine Martial Continent, and he was saved by Dahu, he didn''t know where he was. To understand the situation, he had asked about the Southern Regions. From that time, both Dahu and Xiaoqing knew Jiang Yifeng was from the Southern Regions. As long as Ye Xiaoqing and Liang Dahu lived until the Nine Mystic Realm appeared, and the Southern Regions appeared, they would naturally understand he was someone who traveled back in time. "But even so, why would Ye Xiaoqing set up in the Southern Regions? To pave the way for herself?" "What purpose does this serve?" "Also, it''s normal for Ye Xiaoqing to know about my connection with the White Tiger n; after all, they lived on the same timeline." "But how would Ye Xiaoqing know about my connections with the Mystic Turtle, dragon egg, and Demonic Phoenix?" Suddenly, a whole slew of questions arose. However, Jiang Yifeng was sure that something significant must have happened during this period. Perhaps it was precisely this event that made Ye Xiaoqing aware of everything. And she made arrangements because of it! Jiang Yifeng even spected that this event might have caused Ye Xiaoqing to fall from the Dao-level to the half-Dao-level. For a moment, Jiang Yifeng felt a headacheing on. The situation seemed even moreplicated now. Not to mention what exactly happened or why Ye Xiaoqing did this. What shocked Jiang Yifeng even more was that if the four fierce beasts guarding the sealing formation in the Southern Regions were orchestrated by Ye Xiaoqing, then reality and the cross-time simtion had intersected. It even formed a closed loop. Was this a coincidence or an inevitability? The more he thought about it, the more terrifying it seemed! The more he thought, the more his head hurt. Just as Jiang Yifeng was stuck in a mental deadlock. "Don''t overthink it, don''t overthink it; doing nothing is fine!" The psychological suggestion he had given himself rose from his heart. "Hu..."N?v(el)B\\jnn Taking a deep breath, Jiang Yifeng stopped thinking. Indeed, he shouldn''t overthink it. "If I can''t figure it out, I''ll think about itter." For now, he should find Xiaoqing first. Once he finds her, perhaps the current confusion will be resolved! "Right, since Xiaoqing is still in this world, what about Dahu?" Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng thought of another question. Compared to Ye Xiaoqing, Jiang Yifeng trusted Dahu more. If Dahu was still around, it would be like having a powerful ally. However, given Ye Xiaoqing and Dahu''s rtionship as Daopanions, it seems that finding Xiaoqing would also lead to finding Dahu! "In that case, let''s begin!" With a smirk, Jiang Yifeng left the Jiang Family Mansion and headed towards the Nine Mystic Realm. His destination this time: the Immortal Realm! With chaos being so vast, how could one person searchingpare to the entire Immortal Realm taking action? Three years passed in the blink of an eye. At this time, the Immortal Realm was in a state of panic. Most Saint realm experts began to band together. They all knew that a peerless expert was capturing Saint realm experts everywhere. As for the reason? No one knew! The zing Sun Holy Land. This was a renowned holynd sect in the Immortal Realm, ranking among the top three in terms of strength. In the zing Sun Holy Land, there were over thirty Saint realm experts. This number was quite astonishing. At this moment, all disciples in the zing Sun Holy Land were fully armed. A group of Saints looked warily into the void. Judging by their posture, they were clearly preparing for battle. Soon after, the void rippled. A young figure emerged from the void. Who else could it be but Jiang Yifeng? He looked at the well-prepared zing Sun Holy Land, a smirk on his lips. So well-prepared? But is it useful? Outnumbered? The zing Sun Holy Land must be overthinking. Soon, the void rippled continuously. One by one, Saint realm experts appeared behind Jiang Yifeng. Counting them, there were about two hundred Saint realm experts. These people were the Saint realm experts Jiang Yifeng had captured and controlled over the past three years. Even Bai Moyu and Shen Wutian, who were previously in the ancient relic, came with their captives to assist. That''s right, Jiang Yifeng had temporarily abandoned his n to attack the "World Gate." The previous dozens of Saint realm experts had attacked for decades, only to create a tiny crack. He knew that relying on these Saint experts to destroy the World Gate was almost an impossible task. In that case, it was better to bring them along to capture more Saint realm experts. Seeing so many Saint realm experts appear, the people of the zing Sun Holy Land turned pale. Many disciples with lower cultivation levels copsed to the ground in fear. Excessive, too excessive. Who brings hundreds of Saint experts to attack a sect? When they attacked other realms in the Immortal Realm, they never deployed so many Saint experts! How could they even fight this battle? The Saint realm experts of the zing Sun Holy Land exchanged nces. Then they all knelt towards the ancestral grounds of the sect. "Strong enemy invasion, we plead for the ancestor to emerge!" "Please, ancestor, emerge..." A chorus of pleas echoed through the heavens and earth. Chapter 268: Battle at half-Dao level! Chapter 268: Battle at half-Dao level! Jiang Yifeng saw this and a smile appeared on his lips. "Ancestor? Do you think calling for your ancestor will help?" He dared to openly attack the zing Sun Holy Land because he had done his homework. It''s true that the zing Sun Holy Land has an ancestor. But there''s only one, and his cultivation is merely at the half-Dao level. Jiang Yifeng was even looking forward to a fight with him. After all, it''s all valuablebat experience! Having gone through a deep simtion once, gaining more experience fighting against a half-Dao level opponent was something he couldn''t ask for more. As for losing?He never considered it. In previous simtions, he had defeated a half-Dao level Leviathan-Roc even at the eight-star Ancient God realm. Why would he fear an ordinary half-Dao level now? Even if hisbat experience wasn''t as extensive as in thest simtion, his strength was greater now! At most, it would be a tough battle, but losing was out of the question. Amid the shouts of the Saints from the zing Sun Holy Land. Finally, there was some movement in the ancestralnd. For a moment, the Saints of the zing Sun Holy Land showed expressions of delight. The ancestor hade out, and they were saved. The half-Dao level may seem just one realm higher than the Saint realm. But the difference inbat power was like heaven and earth. A half-Dao level master already wielded the power of the great Dao, which was several times stronger than the power ofws. ording tomon sense, even hundreds of Saint realm experts wouldn''t be a match for a half-Dao level opponent. Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng was also a bit pleased, starting to warm up for a big battle! But things didn''t develop as expected. After the appearance of the zing Sun Holy Land''s ancestor, Chen Yangming. Without a word, he instantly controlled all the Saint realm members of the zing Sun Sect. Then he looked at Jiang Yifeng with a grin. "Fellow Daoist, you can use these little brats however you like!" ... Everyone present was caught off guard by Chen Yangming''s actions.N?v(el)B\\jnn Jiang Yifeng was no exception. He didn''t expect the other party to be so sensible. However, Jiang Yifeng didn''t buy it. Instead, he coldly said to Chen Yangming, "Not enough, you must also follow mymands!" Hearing this, Chen Yangming''s expression changed slightly. He couldn''t believe Jiang Yifeng was so ungrateful. He had alreadypromised, yet the other party was still pushing his luck. Did he want to control andmand him, a half-Dao level expert? Instantly, Chen Yangming''s anger was ignited. But soon, he remembered the intense sense of danger he had just felt from Jiang Yifeng. So, Chen Yangming suppressed his anger and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist, don''t joke around, I''m just an old man, can''t do much!" "You have these little brats, that''s enough!" He continued to be amodating, not wanting to fight Jiang Yifeng. However, asking him, a dignified half-Dao level expert, to be ackey was impossible. He hoped Jiang Yifeng would back off. But Jiang Yifeng''s next words were not what he wished for. This time, Jiang Yifeng appeared particrly domineering. He suddenly erupted with momentum, coldly shouting at the half-Dao level Chen Yangming. "I never joke!" "Today, whether you want to or not, you willply!" Chen Yangming had been his target all along. How could he let him leave! Of course, this also had to do with Chen Yangming being from the Immortal Realm. From the various simtions before, Jiang Yifeng naturally didn''t have a good impression of people from the Immortal Realm. If Chen Yangming were from another realm and so sensible, Jiang Yifeng might have softened. "Kid, I''ve retreated again and again, don''t be ungrateful!" Chen Yangming finally erupted. He couldn''t stand the feeling of being trampled on. In response to Chen Yangming''s outburst, Jiang Yifeng simply let out a light shout. "Come fight!" He no longer wanted to pull back and forth with the other party. Better to use strength to subdue him! Chen Yangming''s face turned grim, but at this point, he had no choice but to fight. "Fight!" Soon, Chen Yangming and Jiang Yifeng shed fiercely! "Boom!" Their first sh shattered the entire void! Jiang Yifeng was sent flying millions of miles, eventually falling to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood. Seeing this, Chen Yangming was slightly stunned. What happened? So weak? Could the previous sense of crisis have been wrong? Instantly, Chen Yangming regained his confidence. He sneered at Jiang Yifeng. "Heh, young brat, I gave you a chance, but you didn''t cherish it." "Now you can''t take anyone with you, and you''ll leave your life here!" With that, Chen Yangming instantly appeared in front of Jiang Yifeng, ready to seize the opportunity. Hearing the other party''s words, Jiang Yifeng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and let out a lightugh. "You want my life? You''re not qualified!" In an instant, Jiang Yifeng unleashed the War God Body. Then heunched a Silent Destruction Fist that reversed time. "Boom!" Once again, he shed with Chen Yangming. This time, Jiang Yifeng was pushed back hundreds of thousands of miles before stabilizing himself. However, Chen Yangming also took the full brunt of Jiang Yifeng''s Silent Destruction Fist. Instantly, his strength regressed a bit. From thete half-Dao level, he fell to the mid-level. The battle continued relentlessly. On the third strike, Jiang Yifeng was pushed back thousands of miles. On the fourth strike, they were evenly matched. On the fifth strike, Chen Yangming was pushed back a dozen steps. ... On the tenth strike, with a loud bang, Chen Yangming was knocked down, spitting out a mouthful of blood. Jiang Yifeng grew stronger as the battle went on. Chen Yangming finally understood why he felt a sense of crisis. Damn, is this even human? The first strike was clearly a rookie. But after just ten moves, he could suppress him. Unbelievable! "Boom!" In another sh, Chen Yangming was knocked down once more. Just as Jiang Yifeng was about to strike again. Chen Yangming''s voice rang out. "Stop, stop!" "Senior, I yield, I yield; I''m willing to serve you!" At this moment, Jiang Yifeng reluctantly withdrew his fist. He hadn''t even had his fill yet! The other party had already raised the white g. Is this it? A half-Dao level? However, since the other party had surrendered, there was no need to continue. Now, Jiang Yifeng had a rough understanding of his truebat power. It was about what he had estimated before. Facing these current half-Dao levels, he might not have the upper hand initially, but once injured, he could easily handle them. After all, these half-Dao levels were still a far cry from the Leviathan-Roc of ten billion years ago! With the ancestor of the zing Sun Sect surrendering, the other Saint realm experts were naturally easily controlled by Jiang Yifeng. Afterward, Jiang Yifeng once again led arge force, continuing his campaign in the Immortal Realm. Five years passed in the blink of an eye. The Immortal Realm was deste. No longer could a single expert above the Saint realm be seen. As for the reason? They were all captured by Jiang Yifeng! At this time, the number of Saint realm experts Jiang Yifeng had captured had reached a staggering eight hundred. And there were also five half-Dao level experts! After capturing so many prisoners, Jiang Yifeng didn''t continue to wage war on other realms. As far as he knew, other realms still had strong experts. But they were too scattered. And there weren''t many of them. No need to waste time. Since he wasn''t going to wage war anymore, it was time for these prisoners to y their part. With a wave of his hand, Jiang Yifeng sent everyone out. He ordered them to search for Ye Xiaoqing in the chaos. As for Jiang Yifeng himself, he began to cultivate in seclusion. Over the years, he hadn''t just robbed people, but also the resources of the entire Immortal Realm. Having those Immortal Realm captives help him find someone while he cultivated! Sharpening the axe doesn''t dy the work of chopping firewood, Simply perfect! Chapter 269: Deep simulation has ended! In fact, after Jiang Yifeng captured all the powerful beings in the Immortal Realm, he once again questioned the reason behind the Immortal Realm''s attacks on other realms and the origin of the devouring method. However, the answers he received were still unsatisfactory. ording to those half-Dao level beings from the Immortal Realm, the devouring method was initially spread by an ancient half-Dao level figure from the Immortal Realm. Unfortunately, that half-Dao level expert had fallen in battle tens of millions of years ago. Therefore, the origin of the devouring method could no longer be traced. As for devouring the Heavenly Dao of other realms? It was merely driven by interests. Everyone wanted to break through to a higher realm. There was no special reason. Hearing this, Jiang Yifeng realized that this path had reached a dead end.Perhaps he really needed to conduct a cross-time simtion during that period to find out. However, Jiang Yifeng was now somewhat fearful and resistant to cross-time simtions. Several cross-time simtions seemed to prove that everything in reality was rted to him. He was truly afraid that if he simted back to the time of the Immortal Realm''s invasion, he would discover that the devouring method was also connected to him. If that were the case, he would find it hard to ept. Unless absolutely necessary, Jiang Yifeng was reluctant to conduct deep simtions at those critical time points. "I should find Ye Xiaoqing first!" "Perhaps finding her could also unravel this mystery!" Jiang Yifeng sighed and stopped thinking about it. He then devoted himself entirely to cultivation. This time, Jiang Yifeng focused on cultivating Formation Dao and Pill Dao. Using deep simtion to enhance cultivation was a waste. Improving Formation Dao and Pill Dao, however, allowed him to carry the experience and insights out. As long as he integrated them in reality, he could perfectly continue the enhancements from this deep simtion. ... In the blink of an eye, decades passed in cultivation. Now, it was the end of the ny-ninth year of Jiang Yifeng''s deep simtion. In the final year of this deep simtion, Jiang Yifeng finally emerged from seclusion. He stepped out of his retreat. Jiang Yifeng gazed into the void and sighed softly. "Unknowingly, a hundred years are almost up!" "Xiaoqing, where are you hiding?" Indeed, even though all the experts above the Saint level in the Immortal Realm were sent out to search for Ye Xiaoqing, they still hadn''t found any information about her over the years. ???? Not a single trace. Jiang Yifeng no longer held hope of finding Ye Xiaoqing in this deep simtion! Everything had to be left to his simted self! Although he didn''t find Ye Xiaoqing in this deep simtion, Jiang Yifeng still gained quite a bit. His previous "training" in the Immortal Realm had given him valuablebat experience.N?v(el)B\\jnn In addition, during the subsequent decades of seclusion, he had cultivated his auxiliary skills in formations and pill refining to the Saint level. He finally caught up with his cultivation level. In fact, being able to cultivate formations and pill refining so quickly was not only due to Jiang Yifeng''s talent in these two areas but also because his strength was already very high. As the saying goes, mastering one thing leads to mastery in many. With extremely high cultivation, auxiliary studies in Pill Dao and Formation Dao naturally progressed quickly. When his auxiliary study in Formation Dao broke through to the Saint level, Jiang Yifeng finally saw through the rune structure of the "sealing formation" in the Southern Regions. Previously, Bai Moyu hadn''t lied. The core of this "sealing formation" was indeed a protective formation. However, its level was not as Bai Moyu boasted, iming it was Saint level. It was merely Quasi-Saint level. Previously, he had felt that something was off with this "sealing formation," as itpletelycked the grandeur of a Saint level formation, and he could easily poke a hole in it. At the time, he thought it was because he was too strong and didn''t think much of it! After breaking through to Saint level in formations, Jiang Yifeng finally understood that this "sealing formation" was merely Quasi-Saint level. Of course, that didn''t matter anymore. Now, Jiang Yifeng could dismantle the sealing formation with a wave of his hand, without using his strength! This was one of the benefits of breaking through to Saint level in formations! It would save him some effort in the future. Of course, the benefits didn''t stop there! The most crucial part was that the Saint level formation,bined with his mastery of the Law of Space, had given Jiang Yifeng the initial ability to construct a small world. Jiang Yifeng felt that if he further improved his Formation Dao,bined with the Law of Space and otherws, he might truly be able to create a world. That would be quite astonishing. As for Pill Dao? At the Saint level in Pill Dao, every pill Jiang Yifeng refined possessed a pill spirit. The pill spirit mentioned here wasn''t just ordinary consciousness. It had the ability to think independently. Over the years, Jiang Yifeng even refined a pill capable of cultivation. Although its cultivation was slow and its potential was low, it was already terrifying. Jiang Yifeng felt that this was no longer just pill refining. It felt a bit like creating life! If Pill Dao continued to improve, perhaps he could truly create life forms simr to humans out of thin air. Only now did Jiang Yifeng realize the terrifying potential of cultivating Formation Dao and Pill Dao to their extremes. Of course, these were just Jiang Yifeng''s spections. Achieving them was practically impossible. Previously, Jiang Yifeng had heard that the limit of Pill Dao and Formation Dao was the Saint level. No one could break through this boundary. Before Jiang Yifeng reached the Saint level in these two auxiliary studies, he had scoffed at this notion. But now, he understood. The paths of Formation Dao and Pill Dao were blocked. Heaven and earth would not allow it! Saint level was indeed the limit. Jiang Yifeng felt a bit regretful about this. However, it was also a relief. He could now focus on improving his cultivation. When he had the strength to break through the boundaries of heaven and earth, he would consider auxiliary studies again! Without further thought, after closing his retreat, Jiang Yifeng returned directly to the Jiang Family Mansion in the Southern Regions. There wasn''t much time left in the deep simtion. After roughly calcting, there were less than ten days left! It was time to record the memories of these years and leave them for his simted self. This required an absolutely safe and reliable ce. What ce could be more reassuring than home? Returning to the Jiang Mansion, Jiang Yifeng took out a white-green memory crystal and input some key information and memories from these years into it. After a long time, the memory storage wasplete. Jiang Yifeng ced it into his storage ring and left clues in his room. Afterpleting everything, Jiang Yifeng silently recited. "End deep simtion!" The remaining days would be wasted, and so be it! [Ding, deep simtion ended!] Apanied by the electronic voice of the simtor, Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness returned to reality. Looking at the familiar room, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t tell if he was in reality or in the simtion for a moment. It wasn''t until he saw the simtion panel in front of him that he realized. Jiang Yifeng frowned and muttered a couple of sentences. "Thankfully, there''s the simtor panel, otherwise it''s really easy to get lost in deep simtions!" "In the future, when ending deep simtions, I should avoid choosing the same location as where I entered the simtion." Indeed, this time when Jiang Yifeng ended the deep simtion, he was also in his room. With the environment being exactly the same as reality, it was indeed easy to get lost. However, Jiang Yifeng didn''t dwell on it. He shook his head and looked at the simtion panel. He wanted to continue observing the situation in the simtion! Chapter 270: Special instructions! [You look around at your surroundings and realize you''re in the Jiang Family Mansion, in your own room.] [In an instant, you understand that you were previously in a deep simtion.] [You begin searching for clues, wanting to know what has happened during this time.] [How much time has passed.] [After a long while, you find a memory crystal in your storage ring.] [After receiving the memories from the crystal.] [You instantly realize that nearly a hundred years have passed since you cultivated in the Dragon Tomb.] [The matter of conquering the Immortal Realm has also been resolved.] [Now, the main thing left for you to do is wait for news from Ye Xiaoqing.][As long as you find Ye Xiaoqing, it seems many issues can be resolved.] [With that, it seems you have nothing to do; just wait for information from the captives in the Immortal Realm!] [Thinking of this, you murmur, "Since that''s the case, then let''s focus on cultivation!"] [Afterward, you enter seclusion once again.] [This time, you vow to break through to the Ancient God realm of the starry sky!] [Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, five hundred years have passed!] [During these five hundred years, the world has been quite peaceful.] [In the Southern Regions, people live and work in peace and contentment!] [Besides, small sects have emerged in the Southern Regions.] [More and more people are joining the ranks of cultivators.] [As for beyond the Southern Regions?] [It is also a scene of harmony!] [All the battles across the realms had long ceased when you subdued those Saint-level powerhouses of the Immortal Realm.] [The realms that had been invaded by the Immortal Realm have gradually regained vitality after five hundred years of recuperation.] [With your intervention in this simtion, the entire world seems to be moving in a positive direction.] [As for you?] [After five hundred years of cultivation, you still haven''t broken through to the Ancient God realm of the starry sky.] [You''ve felt the urge to break through several times.] [But each time you prepare to break through, it seems you''re just a hair''s breadth away.] [You feel that perhaps your spiritual root talent has reached its limit.] [After all, your spiritual root talent is only an Orange Talent.] [This talent is nowhere near your father''s, or even your sister Jiang Ruxuan''s.] [To be honest, your talent is about the same as Shen Wutian''s.] [Thinking of Shen Wutian, he has been stuck in the Quasi-Saint realm for millions of years!] [Your current Divine Dao realm is equivalent to the Quasi-Saint level in cultivation.] [Being stuck at this level is normal!] [However, you''re not anxious.] [Your spiritual root talent may have reached its limit.] [But you have other talents.] [For example, Heaven Rewards Diligence.] [This talent, though also Orange, has an incredibly strong characteristic.] [As long as you cultivate, there will be improvement.] [Although the improvement might not be much.] [But you believe that with persistent effort, you can eventually break through.]n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [This talent, which has always been inconspicuous, is finally time to show its worth!] [It''s just uncertain whether the remaining simtion time is enough.] [And during these five hundred years, you still haven''t received any news about Ye Xiaoqing.] [So many years have passed, and with so many Saint-level powerhouses in the Immortal Realm, it''s safe to say they''ve turned the entire world upside down.] [Yet Ye Xiaoqing seems to have vanished into thin air.] [Not only is there no trace of her, but not even a single clue has been found.] [However, based on the reports from those Saint-level powerhouses over the years.] [You''ve discovered an anomaly.] [Many Chosen in the world have disappeared.] [For instance, Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya, whom you heard about in previous simtions.] [Besides them, other peerless Chosen from different ces have also mysteriously vanished.] [There''s a problem, a big problem here!] [But what exactly is the problem, you can''t figure out.] [Ultimately, you give up thinking about it.] [If you can''t figure it out now, then think about itter!] [You choose to continue cultivating in seclusion.] [Time passes!] [In the 900th year, while cultivating in seclusion, you suddenly sense a fluctuation in the endless void.] [This fluctuation is very subtle, and if it weren''t for your strong power and understanding of the Law of Space, it would be hard to sense.] [You gaze into the void, a sense of unease rising in your heart.] [You feel this might be a precursor to the world''s destruction.] [Of course, you''re not entirely sure.] ["Hopefully not!"] ["This time, the Saint-level powerhouses haven''t engaged in chaotic battles."] ["Maybe the world won''t be destroyed?"] ["Maybe in the previous simtion, the world was truly shattered by battles?"] [You mutter to yourself, seemingly trying to convince yourself.] [Finally, you shake your head and chuckle, "Impossible! This world can''t be shattered by Saint-level power!"] [You are no longer a low-level cultivator.] [You possess power that surpasses the Saint realm.] [You clearly understand how strong this world is and how much power is needed to shatter it.] [Saint-level powerhouses can shatter individual realms, but to shatter the entire world, it''s impossible.] [Not a chance!] [Not even with chaotic battles among half-Dao level powerhouses, it''s almost impossible topletely destroy this world!] [You know there''s not much time left.] [However, your progress is too slow, always just a bit short of breaking through to the Ancient God realm of the starry sky.] [Could it be that in this simtion, you ultimately can''t break through?] [So, you set your sights on that dragon egg.] [This dragon egg has absorbed the Dragon n''sws from the entire Dragon Tomb, along with the Dragon n''s vengeful spirits.] [It''s far beyond the dragon egg you consumed at a lower level.] [You know that now, just consuming this dragon egg could enhance even a Saint-level powerhouse.] [This might be your only hope to break through in this simtion.] [You look at the dragon egg in your hand, feeling conflicted.] [In the previous cross-time simtion, you had a decent rtionship with the Azure Dragon.] [This dragon egg is likely its child.] [Do you really want to consume it?] [Although you have eaten dragon eggs before, at that time, you didn''t know the Azure Dragon or the backstory!] [Now, you''re much more conflicted than in that simtion.] [You need to make a choice between power and friendship.] [After a long while, you chuckle lightly, "To hell with power!"] [If I can''t break through in this simtion, there''s always the next.] [What''s there to fear!] [You give up on consuming the dragon egg.] [This decision of yours seems foolish.] [You are well aware of this!] [Yet you still made this choice!] [You don''t want to be a heartless and unfeeling person for the sake of power.] [Even if this is just a simtion!] [Even if no one would know if you did it.] [But you still refuse!] [However, as you shout "To hell with power," things seem to change.] [The dragon egg, which had been silent, suddenly reacts as if it received amand.] [It bursts into light!] [Then it disappears from your hand and appears within your body.] [Your aura begins to surge!] [You''re breaking through, advancing towards the Ancient God realm of the starry sky.] Chapter 271: Breakthrough; the great road resonates together! [The sudden change caught you off guard!] [What''s going on with this dragon egg?] [At this moment, you''re quite puzzled!] [But there''s no time for you to think too much.] [Now, the bottleneck of your realm has been forcibly broken through by the massive Divine Abilities from the dragon egg!] [Even if you wanted to stop, you couldn''t!] [Now, you can only force yourself to calm down and ept this inexplicable gift.] [Soon, you focus your mind and enter a breakthrough state!] [Time passes by little by little.][In the blink of an eye, three years have passed.] ["Boom!" Apanied by a loud noise within you, today you finallyplete your breakthrough, reaching the Ancient God realm of the starry sky!] [And at this moment, the entire world resonates with the sound of the Great Dao.] [The sound of the Great Dao echoes throughout the world.] [Countless cultivators fall into enlightenment because of this.] [Your breakthrough not only enhances your own strength but also benefits all cultivators.] [Perhaps this is what it means for one person to attain enlightenment and everyone around them to ascend!] [You don''t pay attention to these things.] [Instead, you focus on the dragon egg within you.] [Yes, the dragon egg is still there.] [You carefully observe the condition of the dragon egg.] [After a long time, youe to a conclusion.] [The dragon egg is intact.] [No, actually, it''s not truly intact.] [The dragon egg no longer contains the Divine Abilities and the grudges of the Dragon n it absorbed in the Dragon Tomb.] [It has returned to its original state.] [Sensing this, you have a hypothesis.] [You think the dragon egg might just be a transitional vessel.] [The real key to your breakthrough was the Divine Abilities of the Dragon n in the Dragon Tomb and the power of numerous dragon grudges.] [Afterward, you try to guide the dragon egg out of your body!] [No response!] [The dragon egg seems to want to take root within you.] [Seeing this, you don''t forcibly expel the dragon egg from your body.] [You''re not in a breakthrough state now, so you could forcibly expel the dragon egg if you wanted to.] [But doing so might harm the dragon egg.] [There''s no need for that.] [Instead, you also want to see what this dragon egg is all about.] [Why did it suddenly help you break through?] [Could this be Ye Xiaoqing''s doing?] [So, you don''t bother with it.] [After all, it doesn''t affect you in any way.] [Let it be!] [There might be some deeper meaning to it.] [After checking the dragon egg, you finally focus on your own strength.] [Compared to before the breakthrough, your improvement is quite significant.] [Most notably, you can nowpletely perceive the power of the Great Dao in this world.] [Yes, it''s the power of the Great Dao, no longer just the power ofws!] [This seems like just an enhancement of perception.] [But in reality, it''s far more than that.] [Only by perceiving the Great Dao can youprehend it.] [You could say this is a qualitative change.] [In the Immortal Dao cultivation system, this is a perception ability only half-Dao level cultivators can master.] [And only those at the half-Dao level can begin toprehend the Great Dao.] [But now, your Ancient God realm of the starry sky can already do this.] [You think this might be another advantage of the Divine Dao!] [However, you don''t know that originally the Ancient God realm of the starry sky couldn''t perceive all the power of the Great Dao.] [The name "Ancient God of the starry sky" implies a god among the stars; this realm canprehend the Great Dao in the void, but it''s hard to perceive the Great Dao in chaos.] R [However, that applies to aplete great world. In this broken world, the Great Dao is already shattered, and your Ancient God realm of the starry sky can perceive all the power of the Great Dao.] [So, it''s not unreasonable to say you have a perception abilityparable to the half-Dao level!] [Of course, you are unaware of this.] [At this moment, you continue to explore your own condition.] [In this breakthrough, besides gaining the ability to perceive the Great Dao, there''s another significant improvement.] [All yourws have been greatly enhanced.] [However, this also seems to be rted to the Great Dao.] [After all, you can perceive the Great Dao now.] [It''s only logical that the power ofws, which is one level lower than the Great Dao, would beprehensively enhanced.] [Moreover, you gradually understand why the Divine Dao is stronger than the Immortal Dao.] [Why you can fight across levels.] [Besides the power of the War God Art.] [There''s also the chaotic energy you hadn''t noticed before.] [Now that you can perceive the power of the Great Dao, you can clearly detect that the chaotic energy seems to contain a trace of the Great Dao''s power.] [Of course, it''s just a trace, and you can sense that the Great Dao''s power in the chaotic energy is not yetplete.] [But no matter what, it''s still the power of the Great Dao!] [A power beyondws.] [No wonder those of the Divine Dao can easily crush the Immortal Dao.] [When Immortal Dao cultivators break through to the Mortal Immortal realm, they grasp the power ofws.] [While you, a One-Star Ancient God, already have a trace of the Great Dao''s power.] [Isn''t this like a father beating his son?] [You think that your ability to fight across levels to the half-Dao level might also be due to this reason.] [After all, half-Dao level cultivators have mastered the power of the Great Dao, and logically, it''s hard to defeat them usingws.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om [Now it seems that you actually already mastered a trace of the Great Dao''s power, you just weren''t aware of it.] [Of course, you know the main reason is still the War God Art.] [Although your chaotic energy contains a trace of the Great Dao''s power, it''s just a trace; it''s not enough to let you defeat the half-Dao level.] [After exploring your own condition, you look up at the sky, gazing at the Great Dao in the void.] [Those dense cracks, and even multiple missing parts.] [Such a Great Dao still maintaining the world''s operation is already a miracle.] [You can''t help but feel a bit emotional: "No wonder the world is doomed!"] [You know the destruction of this world is beyond saving.] [You just don''t know what the Great Dao in reality is like?] [Can it still be saved?] [How can it be saved?] [For a moment, you feel a bit lost, even despairing!] [To save the Great Dao!] [How strong must one be?] [You don''t know, you only know that you are powerless now!] In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this. He murmured, "To save the Great Dao, is that the only way to stop the destruction of time?" After speaking, he couldn''t help but look towards the void. Wanting to see what the Great Dao has shattered into! He looked up! Well, he saw the ceiling! Sensed thews. The Great Dao? What''s that? Alright! Can''t see it, can''t sense it! The simtion isn''t even over yet, cultivation hasn''t been extracted, sensing it would be a miracle. "Too curious, too impatient!" Jiang Yifeng mocked himself, shaking his head slightly. Then continued to look at the simtor. Chapter 272: Family! **"Phew!" You take a deep breath, trying not to overthink.** **Reality still has time, still has a chance to be saved, worrying about it now is pointless!** **No matter what, it''s best to focus on the present.** **You know that the simtion is nearing its end, and within the next few decades, this world will be destroyed.** **This amount of time is not enough for you to achieve anything significant through cultivation.**n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om **Since that''s the case, you choose not to continue cultivating.** **Instead, you return to the ancient relic once more!** **Your strength has significantly improved now.** **You want to try again to see if you can break the towering gate here!****"Boom! Boom! Boom!"** **You punch the gate repeatedly.** **The effect is not ideal.** **Although each punch creates a few cracks,** **that''s all it does.** **You estimate that with your current strength, it would take tens of thousands of years to break this gate.** **Without tens of thousands of years, it''spletely impossible to break it!** **This leaves you puzzled!** **Logically, your current strength has surpassed the half-Dao level.** **Even without activating the War God Body, you should have peak half-Dao levelbat power!** **With such strength, breaking the "World Gate" should not take so long, right?** **But upon further thought, it seems normal.** **During the previous cross-time simtion, when the Divine Tortoise attacked the "World Gate," there were dozens of peak half-Dao level experts.** **So many experts attacked for thousands of years and only managed to create a lot of cracks on the "World Gate"; they didn''t destroy it.** **In the end, the "World Gate" opened itself, and only under the self-destruction of the Divine Tortoise and you did the gate finally get destroyed.** **Seeing that this path is not feasible, you don''t waste any more time.** **Afterward, you return to the Jiang Family Mansion.** **Back at the Jiang Family Mansion, you don''t cultivate.** **Instead, you frequently hover around Jiang Ruxuan.** **That''s right, you want to take Jiang Ruxuan to see the "World Gate" to find out if there''s a secret about her.** **But you''re worried about unexpected incidents.** **You''re very conflicted now.** **Every time you make up your mind to take Jiang Ruxuan, you end up giving up halfway when you face her.** **This results in you frequently visiting Jiang Ruxuan.** **In the blink of an eye, a year passes.** **One day, you arrive outside Jiang Ruxuan''s courtyard again.** **Before you enter, Jiang Ruxuan''s voicees from inside the courtyard.** **"Brother, what are you bringing me today?"** **Recently, every time youe here, you use the excuse of bringing resources or small trinkets.** **Now Jiang Ruxuan even anticipates your excuses.** **Hearing this, you awkwardly touch your storage ring.** **You probe inside with your consciousness, searching around.** **Awkwardly, it seems you''ve already given Jiang Ruxuan all the resources she can use.** **Seeing your awkwardness, Jiang Ruxuan opens her storage ring and pours out arge amount of resources onto the ground, instantly filling the entire courtyard!** ? **She chuckles softly, "Brother, look, these are all the resources you''ve given me over the past two years! I can''t even use them all!"** **Seeing this, you feel even more embarrassed.** **But Jiang Ruxuan''s voice rings out again.** **"Brother, if there''s something, you can just tell me directly. You keep saying you''re bringing me things, do you think I''m a fool?"** **"Ha, haha!"** **Youugh dryly, unsure of what to say.** **Could you really tell Jiang Ruxuan that you want to use her life to test and uncover the secret she might hold?** **Even though the world is on the brink of destruction, it hasn''t been destroyed yet, has it?** **In the end, you shake your head and say, "No, nothing; your brother is really strong now, what could be wrong; it''s just boring to cultivate every day, so I came to see you!"** **"Can''t a brothere to see his own sister?"** **You still avoid the issue, finding an excuse to brush off Jiang Ruxuan.** **You can''t bring yourself to do it.** **You can''t harden your heart.** **To send a family member you''ve been with for hundreds of years into danger just to verify a possible secret.** **Your words don''t convince Jiang Ruxuan.** **She looks at you and speaks softly, "Brother, we are family; I know you have something going on, and you need me, just tell me; what do you need me to do?"** **After hundreds of years together, Jiang Ruxuan haspletely epted you as her brother.** **She considers you and everyone in the Jiang Family as family.** **Now she knows you have something going on, and it''s not a good thing; but she''s willing to take the risk for you!** **Hearing Jiang Ruxuan''s words, you wish you could p yourself.** **You silently curse yourself: "Jiang Yifeng, what were you thinking, how could you even consider putting your family in danger!"** **However, you don''t show it on the surface, you just look at Jiang Ruxuan and smile lightly, "Really, it''s nothing!"** **After speaking, you toss your storage ring to Jiang Ruxuan and turn to leave.** **At this moment, you make up your mind never to have any thoughts of using or harming those around you again.** **For you, it might just be a simtion.** **But for the people in your simtion; it''s a real life.** **Like Jiang Ruxuan this time, and your father Jiang Fushan in previous simtions, even Da Hu, Xiaoqing, and Little White during the cross-time simtion.** **They are all willing to take risks for you; to fight for you!** **If you continue to deliberately use them, you would truly be inhumane.** **As for the secret, there will always be a chance to uncover it.** **At worst, you can do a cross-time simtion in the future!** **Although you''re a bit worried that cross-time simtion might drag you in, as long as you don''t appear in front of people, silently observing everything alone.** **There shouldn''t be any problems.** **Once you figure it out, you instantly feel relieved.** **That day, you leave the Jiang Family Mansion.** **You want to use the remaining time to personally search for Ye Xiaoqing in the chaos.** **Perhaps it''s because the people from the Immortal Realm aren''t strong enough that they can''t find any trace of Ye Xiaoqing?** **However, you don''t know that after you left, Jiang Ruxuan secretly found your father Jiang Fushan to get Bai Moyu''s contact method.** **Over the years, Bai Moyu helping you with tasks is no secret in the Jiang Family Mansion.** **Jiang Ruxuan thinks that since you won''t say, she might as well ask Bai Moyu.** **After obtaining Bai Moyu''s contact method, Jiang Ruxuan quickly learns that Bai Moyu is helping you search for someone.** **But clearly, this is not something she can help you with.** **Afterward, she asks about many things, almost inquiring about everything rted to you over the past thousand years.** **Bai Moyu doesn''t think much of it, after all, you didn''t ask him not to say anything.** **As a "simp," Bai Moyu naturally shares everything.** **After a long time, Jiang Ruxuan learns about the "gate"!** **This might be the only thing rted to her.** **She recalls her mother''s instructions before losing her memory.** **And connects it to the abnormal gate Bai Moyu mentioned, causing her body to tremble slightly.** Chapter 273: Someone is outside the door! [There''s really a "gate," an unusual gate that even so many powerful beings couldn''t break!] [This must be the "gate" that her mother warned her not to approach.] [Jiang Ruxuan now understands why you were so hesitant; you even chose not to tell her the truth in the end.] [It turns out it''s rted to the "gate"; you were worried something might happen to her and chose not to let her take the risk!] [From Bai Moyu''s words, she knows how important that "gate" is to you.] [Otherwise, you wouldn''t have captured so many Saints from the Immortal Realm to attack the "gate"!] [But ording to Bai Moyu, it didn''t have any effect.] [Recalling her mother''s words, Jiang Ruxuan thinks she might be the key, the crucial element to breaking the gate!] [Regarding these matters, Jiang Ruxuan believes you must have thought of them too!][That''s why you wanted her to help, right?] [But in the end, you gave up.] [Your familial love for her outweighed what you wanted to do!] [Thinking of this, she smiled sweetly, feeling a warmth in her heart.] [You didn''t betray her feelings for you!] [In this world of cultivation, although familial love is significant, many people, for the sake of their own pursuits, wouldn''t hesitate to harm even siblings, partners, or even fathers and sons!] [For you to give up using her and not let her take risks is alreadymendable for a cultivator.] [At this moment, Jiang Ruxuan has understood your thoughts.] [For a moment, she hesitated!] [Should she go to the "gate"?] [But it seems a bit risky for her.] [After all, Su Mushuang had repeatedly instructed her not to get close to the "gate" before she lost her memory!] [Not going? But it seems important to you.] [She herself is quite curious about the "gate" and wants to know why she can''t approach it.] [Jiang Ruxuan is caught in an internal struggle.] [You are currently unaware of this.] [At this moment, you have entered the chaos, searching everywhere for Ye Xiaoqing''s whereabouts.] [Years passed in the blink of an eye.] [In the 920th year, you suddenly sensed an anomaly from the ancient relic.] [Could something be wrong with the "World Gate"?] [You frowned slightly and hurried towards it.] [You value the "gate" greatly, so how could you not have left a backup n in the ancient relic?] [You had long set up a formation there, so if there was any disturbance or if someone intruded, you would sense the anomaly!] In reality, Jiang Yifeng frowned deeply. Could it be Jiang Ruxuan who went there? It shouldn''t be, right? Jiang Yifeng was somewhat uncertain. He had actually considered using deep simtion to stop Jiang Ruxuan. After all, he had simted for a hundred years this time. He had interactions with Jiang Ruxuan as well. He couldn''t just watch her take risks like a stranger. But the simtion showed that Jiang Ruxuan was still hesitating. Later, the text shifted back to his simted self. At that time, Jiang Yifeng thought Jiang Ruxuan had ultimately given up. So he didn''t go for a deep simtion to stop her. "I hope it wasn''t Jiang Ruxuan who went." Jiang Yifeng muttered to himself. All he could do now was pray. If it really was Jiang Ruxuan who went and even brought danger upon herself, arge part of the responsibility would be his. He wasn''t decisive enough. He didn''t simte deeply in time to stop her. However, considering that over ten years had passed in the simtion, it probably wasn''t Jiang Ruxuan! Jiang Yifeng could onlyfort himself this way. Of course, even if it was Jiang Ruxuan, there was no point in saying more! Even if he simted deeply again, it wouldn''t make any difference. After all, his simted self was quite reliable. He had left a backup n in the ancient relic and was already on his way back. Even if he simted deeply now, it wouldn''t make him faster. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng could only continue to look at the simtor. [You travel at full speed, constantly traversing through the void, and in just a few minutes, you arrive at the ancient relic.] [As soon as you arrive, you see Jiang Ruxuan at first nce.] [Instantly, anger wells up in your heart.] [Who told Jiang Ruxuan about this ce?] [After a brief thought, you suspect Bai Moyu.] [Among those who work for you, only he has a way tomunicate with your family!] [You also realize that perhaps your previous actions made Jiang Ruxuan suspicious, prompting her to ask Bai Moyu.] [You have some fault in this.] [But that''s not important!] [The main issue still lies with that old rascal Bai Moyu!] [If he had kept his mouth shut, nothing would have happened.] [That old rascal really deserves a beating.]n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [You''ll settle the score with himter!] [Fortunately, it seems Jiang Ruxuan is currently unharmed.] [It''s unclear whether Jiang Ruxuan isn''t close enough to the "gate" or if Su Mushuang''s warning not to approach the gate was unreliable.] [In any case, as long as Jiang Ruxuan is safe!] [This allows you to breathe a sigh of relief.] [In the blink of an eye, you appear in front of Jiang Ruxuan, grabbing her to take her away.] [Just then, a change urs.] [You hear a series of "boom, boom, boom" sounds.] [The sound seems toe from outside the "World Gate"!] ["Is someone attacking from outside the gate?"] [What''s going on?] [A bunch of questions pop into your mind.] [Who is attacking this gate?] [Do people outside need to attack the gate to get in?] [But in the previous cross-time simtion, the Innate Demon God "Yu" didn''t attack and easily opened the World Gate!] [And why are people outside attacking the gate now?] [Why didn''t they attack before?] [Could it be because of Jiang Ruxuan?] [Instantly, you think of a possibility!] [Could it be that the people outside didn''t know the location of the World Gate before?] [Only after your sister Jiang Ruxuan approached the World Gate did they find out?] [If so, doesn''t that mean your sister Jiang Ruxuan is a coordinate?] [Recalling how your mother Su Mushuang warned Jiang Ruxuan not to approach the gate.] [It''s clear that the people outside shouldn''t discover this coordinate.] [In this light, the people attacking the gate outside should be enemies, right?] [For a moment, you frowned deeply.] [You don''t care about the enemies.] [What you''re concerned about now is why Jiang Ruxuan would be the enemy''s coordinate?] [Could she be an enemy too?] [No way!] [Jiang Ruxuan, whether seen through your Chaos Heavy Pupil or in daily interactions, seemspletely normal.] [Although her talent is slightly better, she''s only at the level of a Chosen, and her cultivation speed is far from that of your father and Little Peach, who are re-cultivators.] [In this way, she can''t be a reincarnator.] [Since she''s not a reincarnator, how could she be an enemy?] [You conclude that Jiang Ruxuan herself is not the problem.] [You think either someone is using Jiang Ruxuan as a pawn.] [Or there''s some other hidden truth.] Chapter 274: The world is destroyed, the last person! In reality. Jiang Ruxuan was unharmed, allowing Jiang Yifeng to breathe a sigh of relief. However, the situation seemed to have taken an unexpected turn. It waspletely different from what he had imagined. Someone attacking the door from outside? Jiang Ruxuan as a coordinate? What kind of nonsense is this? An enemy from beyond the realm? Such a clich¨¦d fantasy plot?It shouldn''t be like this! Unable to make sense of it, Jiang Yifeng decided not to dwell on it. He continued to observe the developments in the simtor! [You watch the "door" that keeps making noises and even shows cracks; you feel a bit wary.] [However, with people outside the door, there''s nothing you can do to stop them.] [You can only wait!] [Without thinking further, you take Jiang Ruxuan back to the Jiang Family Mansion.] [After returning home, you warn Jiang Ruxuan not to go near the "door" again!] [After educating your sister!] [You start asking her if she noticed anything unusual about herself before?] [Jiang Ruxuan shook her head.] [She is also quite confused now.] [Previously, she thought that approaching the door would injure her or cost her life.] [After all, using life as a key is not impossible in the world of cultivation.] [However, after she approached the "door," nothing happened to her.] [Instead, it seemed to have attracted someone?] [For a moment, she felt a bit guilty, as if she had caused trouble.] [Seeing Jiang Ruxuan''s guilty expression, you ruffle her hair andfort her, saying, "It''s not your fault!"] [This matter indeed has nothing to do with Jiang Ruxuan. If it weren''t for your previous actions making her think that approaching the "door" could help you, she might never have known of the door''s existence.] [And she wouldn''t have taken the risk.] [After warning her again, you turn and leave!] [In the following days, you don''t seek out Ye Xiaoqing.] [Instead, you stay in the ancient relic, watching the "door" every day.] [Time flies, and thirty years pass in the blink of an eye.] [In the 950th year, people outside the "door" are still attacking!] [At this point, the door is covered in cracks, but it remains steadfast.] [As for you?] [You are no longer staying in the same ce.] [You no longer care about what enemy is outside the door.] [It doesn''t matter anymore.] [After all, it''s alling to an end.] [The world is starting to copse, so why fear an enemy invasion?] [Indeed, the great path of this world has begun topletely shatter; the entire world has started to copse and break down in many ces.] [Now, you have once again ventured into chaos, hoping to find another way out.] [During previous simtions, you learned that there were three continents and three great paths!] [However, ording to the Mystic Turtle''s memory, those three continents shattered again, forming the current world!] [Even so, you still want to try.] [To see if you can find a ce left behind, not governed by this great path.] [If so, there might still be a chance for survival.] [Ten years pass!] [In the 960th year, the speed of the great path''s copse elerates again.] [There are only a few pieces ofnd left in the world.] [And you still haven''t found a ce of survival.] [Given this, you feel there''s no need to waste more time.] [So, you release all the captives from the Immortal Realm, letting them find their own paths.] [And you? You return to the "Jiang Family Mansion" once more.] [It''s worth mentioning that the Jiang Family Mansion is no longer in Green Hills City.] [It has been moved to the ancient relic.] [Built right in front of the "World Gate"!] [This was unavoidable.] [All othernds are copsing.] [Only thend in front of the gate remains steadfast.] [This ce has be a refuge.] [Looking at your family in front of you, you spend half a month with them.] [After half a month, you bid farewell to your family, step out, and walk into the shattered void, facing the power of world destruction.] [You want toprehend the power of space from it.] [Your departure is not as carefree as it seems.] [Your heart is heavy!] [You know that this departure might be a final farewell for your family in this parallel world.] [Not just for you, but also for your father, mother, sister, even the maids and butlers, they all have this feeling.] [It''s not because they know about your simtions.] [But because the world is like this, copsing everywhere, every farewell might be thest!] [But they can''t selfishly keep you from cultivating.] [In their eyes, your strength is already formidable, and if you improve a bit more, perhaps you could survive the apocalypse?] [They can only watch your departing figure; silently cheering you on in their hearts!] [You can feel all of this!] [But you are powerless to change it.] [Now, besides cultivating, you have no other options.] [Soon, you find a space turbulence and step into it.] [The space turbulence brought by the world''s destruction is notparable to the strength of the Dragon Tomb''s copse.] [Fortunately, your strength has improved significantly over the years.] [As long as you''re careful, you can withstand it.] [You find a rtively safe area within the space turbulence.] [Then you activate all the buffs from the Enlightenment Pill and Inevitable Comprehension, starting the final cultivation of this simtion.] [Five years pass in the blink of an eye.] [In the 965th year, your Law of Space has reached the great sess stage!] [The Law of Destruction has also reached the minor sess stage.] [Additionally, the Law of Wind, the Law of Chaos, and others have all seen significant improvements.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [In the 975th year, your Law of Space breaks through to the peak stage, just one step away from perfection.] [The Law of Destruction has also reached great sess; other powers ofws carried by the space turbulence have also improved.] [Time flows, and unknowingly, another twenty years pass!] [In the 999th year, your Law of Space finally reaches perfection; one more step and you willprehend the Great Path of Space.] [However, breaking through fromws to the great path is not that simple.] [Over the years, you haven''t been cultivating in one ce.] [After all, the power of world destruction is something you can''t withstand.] [You''ve been constantly moving, seeking rtively safe ces.] [You must know, the true cause of world destruction is the copse of the great path.] [Where there is space turbulence, it proves there is still power ofws, proving the great path still exists!] [It''s just the copse of the great path in other ces affecting the endless void.] [Space turbulence is just a side effect of world destruction.] [The real danger lies in the ces where the great path copses.] [So, over the years, you''ve been constantly changing locations; avoiding danger!] [Now, you have returned to the ancient relic once more.] [Hmm? That''s not quite right!] [To be precise, you havee to the side of the "door."] [The original ancient relic couldn''t withstand the world''s destruction, and most of it has copsed.] [Only the void within ten meters of the door remains temporarily stable.] [You look at the surrounding surging power of the great path''s copse.] [Feeling a bit emotional.] [Under this great cmity of world destruction, truly no one can be spared.] [You feel that perhaps you are the only one left alive in this world!] [And even then, it won''t be long before you can''t hold on either.] Chapter 275: Silver River! Simulation Ended [In thest millennium, the final safe ce before the "Gate" also experienced severe tremors, threatening to copse at any moment.] [You observe the situation and clearly understand that this simtion is about to end.] [You recall that your one-time talent "Spirit Endowment" has not yet been used.] [This talent can grant intelligence to objects, but it doesn''t specify if the intelligence will be under your control.] [Previously, you thought that if you endowed a low-level object, it might be useless, just a toy.] [If the object is too powerful, you worry that once it gains intelligence, it might be uncontroble and pose a threat.] [This is why you haven''t used this talent until now.] [Now, it''s the final moment; it''s time to use this talent.] [Things can''t get worse than they are now.][With this thought, you fix your gaze on the cracked "Gate," ce your hand on it, and silently chant, "Spirit Endowment!"] [Instantly, the "Gate" emits a dazzling golden light.] [Immediately after, you notice the Gate seems to move slightly.] [Could the Gate be opening?] [You feel a surge of joy!] [If the Gate opens now, it could be both good and bad for you.] [If the "Gate" opens, you might be able to leave this world and find a way to survive.] [As for the downside?] [The people outside the "Gate" who have been attacking it might harbor hostility towards you.] [They could pose a danger to you.] [Overall, the benefits outweigh the drawbacks.] [After all, the destruction of this world is inevitable, and you can''t escape death.] [If the Gate opens, even though there are enemies outside, there might still be a glimmer of hope.] [You remain vignt, keeping your eyes fixed on the "Gate," ready to act at any moment.] [Once the Gate opens, you n to force your way out.] [Your n seems sound.] [But will the Gate really open by itself?] [Before long, you see the "Gate" shaking violently!] [Then, with a "whoosh," it transforms into a beam of golden light and disappears without a trace.] [The sounds of attack from outside the Gate also fade away with the golden light.] [You stand there, dumbfounded by the scene.] ["What?"] ["Did the Gate open?"] [It seems the way it opened isn''t quite right.] [You nce at the ce where the "Gate" once stood!] [A hole has appeared there, but you can''t see what''s outside.] [One thing is certain: the attackers from outside the "Gate" have not appeared.] [Perhaps they were really taken away by the "Gate."] [You even specte that the "Gate" might have taken away not just the people, but perhaps that entire world.] [Of course, this is all just spection.] [Now, you don''t have time to think further.] [After the "Gate" disappeared, the safe ce you were in began to tremble, on the verge of copse.] [You could die at any moment.] [You force yourself to stay calm, staring at the hole left by the "Gate."] [You can sense a great terror beyond the hole.] [But regardless, you have no choice left.] [If you don''t leave this world now, all that awaits you is death.] [It''s a gamble, but there might be hope.] [With this thought, you don''t hesitate; just before the copse, you step into the hole.] [You leave the world you were in.] [Stepping through the hole, you are instantly engulfed by darkness.] [You feel a strong sense of annihtion, an indescribable feeling.] [Soon, you realize your body is disintegrating.] [You want to escape!] [But the power of annihtion quickly spreads throughout your body, leaving you unable to break free.] [You know you are about to die.] [Just before your death, you seem to hear the sound of rushing water.] [Instinctively, you look in the direction of the sound.] [In the endless darkness, you see a massive silver river.] [Above the river, there seem to be some golden gates!] [You want to see clearly, but there''s no time.] [You die! At the age of 1020!] [This simtion ends!] [You can choose two rewards from this simtion.] [Thousand Faces (Talent), Cultivation, Saint-level Formation Dao, Saint-level Pill Dao, Special Sense of Gate No. 8.] [Thousand Faces (Talent)]: Price 1000 origin values. [Cultivation]: Price 30 million origin values. (Early stage of the Ancient God realm of the starry sky, numerous perfectedws. Note: Cultivation does not include the dragon egg within the host during the simtion!) ?? [Saint-level Formation Dao]: Price 10 million origin values. [Saint-level Pill Dao]: Price 10 million origin values. [Special Sense of Gate No. 8]: Price 10 million origin values. (Due to your "Spirit Endowment" on a certain "Gate" during this simtion, you have a special sense for it, allowing you to locate it. Note: This is only possible if you encounter it in the same space.) Jiang Yifeng looked at the end of the simtion. He wasn''t surprised. This simtion could onlyst a thousand years, which was expected. He first looked at the simtion rewards. The rewards were somewhat different from what he had imagined. He originally thought the dragon egg would be on the list, but it wasn''t. Jiang Yifeng couldn''t figure out why. But the rewards were always determined by the simtor. Jiang Yifeng didn''t bother to argue with it. After all, arguing was pointless. There was also an unexpected reward option: "Special Sense of Gate No. 8." Whether this reward was good or not was another matter. Through the additional information provided with this reward, Jiang Yifeng learned some information. For instance, the gates are numbered. It seems there is more than one "World Gate." Besides that, Jiang Yifeng confirmed one thing.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om Each of his simtions is not virtual. They are truly parallel worlds. The additional exnation of the reward clearly indicates that due to his "Spirit Endowment" in the simtion, a special World Gate appeared. Moreover, he now has a special sense for this gate. However, Jiang Yifeng felt this reward was somewhat useless. The information nearby clearly implied that he might encounter this "Gate" again. But what good would that do? After all, he endowed the gate a thousand years into the simtion. How could the World Gate he "endowed" possibly meet him again? Perhaps in a thousand years? But a thousand years is too far away. By then, who knows how much his power will have grown? He might have already figured everything out by then. With this thought, Jiang Yifeng was about to give up on this reward. No, that''s not right! Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng thought of a question. Chapter 276: Numerous Questions! Reality Transformation Sealing Formation "Will the ''Gate'' be affected by time? This seems to be a question worth considering. What if the ''Gate'' is unaffected by time? Jiang Yifeng thought it was indeed possible. ording to the series of information obtained from previous simtions, all gates are rted to time; it might even be an existence that istes time. So, it wouldn''t be surprising if it were unaffected by time. Moreover, in this simtion, the ''Gate'' gained the ability to move after being endowed with spirit. Doesn''t that mean he could encounter this ''Gate'' in the past, present, or future? If that''s the case, this special sense seems to have some use.Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng nced at the simtor, a slight smile on his lips. "It seems you knew this all along!" He felt that perhaps the simtor knew the ''Gate'' wouldn''t be affected by time, which is why it offered such a reward. Even the talent of Spirit Endowment might have been deliberately arranged by the simtor. In this light, the ''Gate'' is indeed a crucial piece of information. Otherwise, the simtor wouldn''t have done this. Having confirmed the importance of the ''Gate,'' Jiang Yifeng was ready to make a choice regarding the reward from this simtion. The talent this time wasn''t particrly impressive, so there was no need to choose it. As for Pill Dao and Formation Dao? He had already acquired the theoretical knowledge of these two through deep simtion. These two, unlike cultivation, can be quickly elevated to the Saint level as long as oneprehends them thoroughly. They can be fully aplished in reality. So, the only choices left were the special sense of Gate No. 8 and cultivation. Jiang Yifeng was about to make a decision. Suddenly, he thought of another issue. When he breaks through to the Ancient God realm of the starry sky, it seems it will attract the sound of the Great Dao. Does he need the simtor to shield it? ording to the development in the simtion, shielding isn''t necessary. But since it''s confirmed that the simtion is a parallel world, can the events in the simtion still be referenced? Could reality and simtion not be entirely the same? For a moment, Jiang Yifeng felt a bit overwhelmed. In the end, he chose to seek the simtor''s help. He directly voiced his concerns. [Ding, the host need not worry. Even if it''s a parallel world, it''s an extension of the real world; (please investigate the specific reasons yourself, as this simtor has no authority to borate)] Originally, Jiang Yifeng was worried the simtor wouldn''t respond. After all, when Jiang Yifeng encountered confusion before, he often asked the simtor. Each time, the simtor remained silent, ying dead. Unexpectedly, this time he received a definite answer.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om Although the simtor said he needed to investigate the specific reasons himself, this answer was enough for now. At least it let Jiang Yifeng know that everything in the simtion could still be referenced. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng didn''t hesitate and made his choice for the simtion reward. "I choose the special sense of Gate No. 8 and cultivation!" [Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining the special sense of Gate No. 8, deducting 1000W origin values, remaining origin values.] [Ding, cultivation extraction sessful, deducting 3000W origin values, remaining origin values.] This time, the cultivation enhancement took rtively long. By the time Jiang Yifengpleted the enhancement, the sky outside was already slightly bright. "Boom!" Just as Jiang Yifeng broke through to the Ancient God realm of the starry sky, the sound of the Great Dao echoed throughout the world. Especially in the Southern Regions where he was located, it was particrly evident. For a moment, all the cultivators in the Southern Regions fell into enlightenment, rapidly advancing. Even the Saint-level powerhouses in the Immortal Realm noticed thismotion. But now, they didn''t have time to investigate. The sound of the Great Dao is a rare opportunity for them as Saints. They decided to check the situation in the Southern Regionster! This was the sentiment of all the Saint realm powerhouses. Jiang Yifeng, though not fully aware of everything, could guess most of it. However, he didn''t care at the moment. He already possessed the strength to crush the Immortal Realm. This time, he didn''t let the simtor conceal the breakthrough''smotion, and it was intentional. As for the reason? It wasn''t to show off or expose himself. It was simply because the sound of the Great Dao could help his father, Little Peach, and those close to him advance quickly. Jiang Yifeng''s goal was never to escape the world-ending catastrophe alone. He wanted to take his family with him to avoid that disaster. Since that was the case, he naturally wanted to help those around him improve their strength as much as possible. The sound of the Great Dao was just the beginning. However, Jiang Yifeng wasn''t thinking about these things now. He was recalling all the information obtained from this simtion. This simtion provided a wealth of information. Of course, it also raised many doubts. Soon, Jiang Yifeng summarized these doubts. First, why did Jiang Erbao create the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao? Second, what secret does Mother Su Mushuang know? Third, why did Ye Xiaoqing set up ayout in the Southern Regions, and where did she go in the end? Why is there no trace of her in the entire world? Fourth, the simtion mentioned that all the Chosen in this world disappeared without a trace. Where did they go? Fifth, why was Jiang Ruxuan attacked as soon as she approached the Gate? Is she really a coordinate set by some people? Who are those people? Sixth, what exactly is the Gate? Seventh, in this simtion, after Gate No. 8 left, what was the darkness and power of annihtion behind that hole? What was the silver river seen there? Of course, besides these, there were previous doubts, like where the Immortal Realm''s technique for devouring the Heavenly Dao came from, and so on! Jiang Yifeng looked at the doubts he had summarized. He fell into deep thought. Among this series of questions, many couldn''t be verified, and there wasn''t even a clue to specte on. However, Jiang Yifeng did have a guess about thatst silver river. He wondered if it might be the so-called River of Time. ording to the simtion, there seemed to be a Gate in that river. Could it be the World Gate? This guess had no basis. It was purely an extension of Jiang Yifeng''s imagination from reading too many novels in his past life. Its uracy was questionable. He kept all these doubts in mind. Waiting for future simtions to solve them one by one. After doing all this, rays of sunlight appeared outside the room. It''s dawn! Jiang Yifeng stretchedzily and walked out of the room. He looked up at the void, in the direction of the Immortal Realm. Muttering to himself, "It''s time to change the sky!" With that, Jiang Yifeng took a step and appeared outside the Southern Regions. He looked at the sealing formation enveloping the Southern Regions, hesitated for a moment. He didn''t destroy it but instead cast formation talismans. He wanted to refine this formation anew. To transform it into a true Saint-level formation. Of course, its function would change as well. No longer sealing everyone, but bing a genuine protective formation. Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and Jiang Yifeng sessfully modified the formation, turning the Southern Regions'' sealing formation into a protective formation. It took on the shape of Jiang Yifeng. In the future, if anyone from the Immortal Realm wanted to unleash Heavenly Thunder on the Southern Regions again, that would be impossible. Not to mention those Immortal Lords of the Golden Immortal realm, even if Saint realm powerhouses came, they could only forcibly attack the sealing formation to unleash Heavenly Thunder. They would have to break the formation before they could do so. They couldn''t silently manipte the formation to unleash Heavenly Thunder anymore. But would they dare to attack this formation? As long as they attacked, it wouldn''t escape Jiang Yifeng''s notice. At that time, they would only be met with Jiang Yifeng''s fists. In fact, Jiang Yifeng couldpletely conquer the Immortal Realm. After all, in the simtion, that''s what he did. But thinking that this is reality, Jiang Yifeng felt it was better to be cautious. What if someone came to harm his family while he was conquering the Immortal Realm? Although it didn''t happen in the simtion, the timing of his actions against the Immortal Realm in the simtion wasn''t now. No one could say for sure if there would be unexpected events. Being cautious never hurts. Chapter 277: Simulator upgrade to version 7.0 Looking at thepletely transformed "sealing formation" before him, Jiang Yifeng nodded in satisfaction. The only pity was that setting up this formation had taken half a month. Now, he had umted two simtion attempts, and in a few days, he would have the maximum number of attempts. This amount of time didn''t seem enough for him to visit various ces in the Immortal Realm and have friendly exchanges with those Saints! "It seems I''ll have to wait for the next opportunity," Jiang Yifeng sighed. After hiding for so long, he finally had the chance to showcase his abilities; yet, due tock of time, he had to dy. Jiang Yifeng felt a slight regret about this. However, he also understood that simtion had to be prioritized. The Saints of the Immortal Realm would just have to enjoy a few more days of peace! Although he decided not to "exchange" with the Immortal Realm''s powerhouses for now, Jiang Yifeng didn''t immediately return home to start a simtion. He thought, since he had already umted two simtion attempts, he might as well wait until he had three. Then, he could directly proceed with a cross-time simtion. From thest ordinary simtion, he realized that many secrets were hard to uncover through ordinary simtions. Cross-time simtion was necessary to gain more information. Moreover, the time in ordinary simtions was basically fixed at a thousand years. By then, the world would be destroyed! For his current strength, that amount of time was really insufficient for significant improvement. Even in thest simtion, despite plundering the entire world and having the Dragon Tomb''s Dragon n Divine Ability as assistance, he only managed to break through from the peak of the Nine-Star Ancient God to the early stage of the Ancient God realm of the starry sky. To be precise, it was just a small breakthrough.Now that his strength was even greater, another ordinary simtion might not even allow him to break through a small realm in a thousand years. With cross-time simtion, if he yed it safe, he could survive longer and have a higher chance of enhancing his strength. Afterward, Jiang Yifeng visited the ancient relic. He went to see the "gate" in reality. Unsurprisingly, there was also a gate in reality. The "gate" was identical to Gate No. 8 from thest simtion. He couldn''t help but suspect it was the same "gate." But he knew it wasn''t. The "special sensing of Gate No. 8" from the simtion reward didn''t react to this "gate." After confirming there was a "gate" in reality, Jiang Yifeng didn''t attempt to break it as he did in the simtion. There was no need! He had already tried in the simtion. His current strength couldn''t achieve it. Moreover, what would happen if the "gate" were broken? Would it be good? Or bad? That was still uncertain. It definitely couldn''t be attempted directly in reality. Even if he had the strength to break the "gate," he would need to experiment in the simtion first to get urate conclusions before doing it in reality. Since he was at the ancient relic, Jiang Yifeng naturally didn''t just look at the "gate." He also dealt with Shen Wutian, turning him into his firstckey. As for the process of subduing Shen Wutian? Of course, it was through reason and emotion! Jiang Yifeng exined a bit of physics and casually told Shen Wutian that he now ruled this world. Shen Wutian then submitted at his feet. Afterward, Jiang Yifeng gave Shen Wutian a few instructions and returned to the Jiang Family Mansion, waiting for the next simtion to begin. Jiang Yifeng was at leisure, but the Southern Regions were in turmoil. All the Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect were mobilized. They continuously transported various resources to the Jiang Family Mansion in Green Hills City. In addition, the Immortal ves of the Immortal Arrival Sect also announced that they would no longer obstruct cultivators. The Immortal Arrival Sect was even recruiting disciples on arge scale, spreading teachings! Jiang Yifeng was naturally aware of all this. After all, these were orders he had given to Shen Wutian. He had initially considered wiping out the Immortal Arrival Sect entirely! But thinking about the world catastrophe a thousand yearster, he abandoned that decision. Perhaps those cultivators might still be useful. This was a premonition Jiang Yifeng had. He always felt that the world catastrophe couldn''t be ovee by one person alone. Perhaps it would require arge number of cultivators. This feeling didn''t have any basis! Jiang Yifeng himself didn''t understand why he had this feeling. He couldn''t figure out what role some low-level cultivators could y in such a disaster as the world catastrophe. But since he had this feeling, he didn''t mind sparing those Immortal ves. After all, it didn''t hurt! ...... In the blink of an eye, seven days passed. At this time, Jiang Yifeng had umted three simtion attempts. However, he didn''t immediately start the cross-time simtion. Instead, he took out nearly a hundred storage rings to replenish his origin values first. These storage rings were naturally sent by the Immortal Arrival Sect. After exchanging all the resources in those storage rings, Jiang Yifeng''s origin values broke through the one billion mark. The exact value was the origin values. Looking at these origin values, Jiang Yifeng silently said to himself. "Upgrade the simtor!"n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om That''s right, the simtor could be upgraded now. Jiang Yifeng had privately inquired about the conditions for upgrading the simtor, which were precisely one billion origin values and the Ancient God realm of the starry sky! As Jiang Yifeng''s voice fell, the simtor''s voice sounded. [Ding, the simtor has been upgraded to version 7.0; one billion origin values deducted; remaining origin values.] [Modification 1: Purple Talent extraction canceled; the probability of the host extracting Orange Talent and Red Talent has greatly increased!] [Modification 2: The maximum umtion of simtion attempts increased to 10.] [Modification 3: Cross-time simtion will offer two modes. (Details will be known to the host during the cross-time simtion!)] [Modification 4: If the same type of talent is extracted, it will no longer be reced but will automatically be stored in the talent pool.] [Important Tip: With this upgrade, the host''s and this simtor''s permissions are enhanced; future cross-time simtions will support long-term deep simtions.] Looking at the effects of this simtor upgrade, Jiang Yifeng frowned slightly. His one billion origin values! Was this it? He had originally thought there would be a Gold Talent. Instead, the Purple Talent was canceled, and the probability of drawing a Red Talent was slightly increased. This still required gambling on luck. As for the increase in the maximum umtion of simtion attempts? It seemed useful, but its effect wasn''t significant. It just made his avable time in reality more flexible. The third point, cross-time simtion changed to two modes. Without specific details, Jiang Yifeng didn''t know what it was like. He would have to wait until the simtion started to find out. After reviewing the effects of this simtor upgrade. The fourth point? Was this useful? They were all low-level talents, which were useless anyway. What difference did it make between recement and storing in the talent pool? Jiang Yifeng felt a bit powerless toin. Overall, he felt that this simtor upgrade was somewhat unworthy of the one billion origin values. The price and the effect of the upgrade didn''t seem to match well. Chapter 278: Two ways of cross-time simulation! Jiang Yifeng felt that the only significant effect of the simtor''s upgrade this time might be the enhancement of its capabilities. It now allowed him to perform deep simtions even during cross-time simtions. Previously, during cross-time simtions, he could only be a spectator, but now he could intervene from outside the simtor. If used well, this could not only enhancebat experience and practical abilities but also make acquiring various information much easier. However, Jiang Yifeng was still a bit suspicious. He stared at the simtor, feeling as if he had been tricked. The simtor had previously mentioned that if his strength was sufficient, he could perform deep simtions during cross-time simtions. Was his current strength enough? Unfortunately, the right to exin thisy with the simtor, and Jiang Yifeng couldn''t verify it.Even if he was being tricked, he could only endure it. He shook his head, not dwelling on it. After all, it''s just origin values, right? No worries, there''s plenty of it. The Immortal Arrival Sect still had some in stock. If worsees to worst, after the simtion ends, he could go to the Immortal Realm to seek alms. He believed that his good brothers in the Immortal Realm would be generous. He didn''t continue to ponder whether the simtor upgrade was a gain or a loss. Jiang Yifeng began to consider which time period to visit in this cross-time simtion. Based on the memories of the Mystic Turtle from previous simtions, it was clear that significant events urred seven hundred million years ago, three hundred million years ago, and eighty million years ago. ? Jiang Yifeng decided to focus this cross-time simtion on these key time points. Among them, he felt that eighty million years ago was the most crucial. It seemed that many things were rted to this time point. Moreover, at this time point, his father Jiang Fushan, his mother Su Mushuang, and Ye Xiaoqing were all present. These were all people rted to him. As long as he found these people, he might learn a lot of information. But then, Jiang Yifeng thought of a problem. If he went to this time point, would the same situation as with Su Mushuang in the previous simtion ur again? Even if he found the person, would they forget the secret? Jiang Yifeng was unsure whether this was due to interference or if it was truly a paradox causing such a situation. For a moment, Jiang Yifeng hesitated. After thinking for a long time, Jiang Yifeng decided to take it step by step. He nned to go to seven hundred million years ago first. To see what happened at that time. Following the timeline step by step, he didn''t believe a paradox would ur, leading to a situation like Su Mushuang''s in thest simtion, where the secret couldn''t be revealed. If following the timeline still resulted in a situation like Su Mushuang''sst time, Jiang Yifeng could conclude that the inability to reveal the secret wasn''t due to a paradox but rather someone deliberately interfering. Moreover, Jiang Yifeng had a whimsical idea. Could he live from seven hundred million years ago to eighty million years ago? If he could achieve that, wouldn''t a single simtion allow him to know everything? Such a long time would surely be enough for him to cultivate to unimaginable heights, right? After all, with his current strength, not just anyone could handle him. As long as he got through the early stages of the cross-time simtion, when his strength was sealed, and restored his full cultivation, even if a Dao-level entity wanted to kill him, it wouldn''t be easy. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng felt a surge of excitement. Without hesitation, he silentlymanded, "Start cross-time simtion, target seven hundred million years ago." [Ding, cross-time simtion started, consuming 3 simtion attempts, 0 attempts remaining.] [Two types of cross-time simtions avable, please choose.] [1: Randomly select a target, host''s soul descends;] (Advantage: Highly concealed; Disadvantage: Cultivation is sealed, needs gradual unsealing; may not be able to protect oneself if encountering danger before restoration.) [2: Simtor fabricates a physical body, host''s soul directly descends to its coordinates.] (Advantage: Host retains full strength; Disadvantage: Considered an outsider in that world,cking social connections; easily exposed.) Looking at the two options on the simtor, Jiang Yifeng understood the two modes of cross-time simtion after the upgrade. Staring at the two options, Jiang Yifeng hesitated for a moment. The first option seemed suitable for lying low. But the key was that the original host shouldn''t have strong enemies. Otherwise, he might end up dead. Although previous cross-time simtions used the first mode without incidents, that was because there were no enemies originally. If luck was bad and the randomly selected target had formidable foes, he might be killed before restoring his cultivation. As for the second option? The advantage was obvious. He would start with his full strength.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om With Jiang Yifeng''s current strength, even if he encountered a Dao-level expert, he felt he could hold his own. Although he hadn''t directly fought a Dao-level opponent, he had in a half-Dao-level being before breaking through to the Ancient God realm of the starry sky. Now, even if he couldn''t defeat a Dao-level opponent, he believed he could certainly protect himself against one. Given this, why fear exposure? With this thought, Jiang Yifeng didn''t hesitate and chose the second option. [Prompt: Physical body fabricationplete; location: an unknown barren mountain seven hundred million years ago; awaiting host''s arrival!] [Ding, spend 1000 origin values to draw a talent?] "Yes!" [Talent drawing in progress, 1000 origin values deducted, remaining origin values.] [Ding: Congrattions to the host for obtaining a red talent: Divine Spiritual Root!] [Divine Spiritual Root: Supreme spiritual root; (If cultivating the Immortal Dao, guaranteed to reach Dao-level!)] [Prompt: Detected host possesses orange talent Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root, same type as Divine Spiritual Root; Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root stored in talent pool.] "WTF, WTF!" Jiang Yifeng was at a loss for words to describe his current feelings. He admitted he was wrong before. He had misunderstood the simtor. The previous upgrade, which increased the probability of drawing talents, indeed had its benefits. With this red talent, the one billion origin values spent on upgrading the simtor were worth it. A spiritual root that guarantees reaching Dao-level in cultivating the Immortal Dao? Guaranteed, meaning it''s just the starting point, not the end! Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but want to shout, "Who else!" But the words stopped at his lips and he swallowed them back. Forget it, there really is someone. Peach, isn''t it? At this moment, Jiang Yifeng once again realized the terrifying talent of Peach. Previously, when using the Chaos Heavy Pupil, he hadn''t seen it so clearly. But thinking about it, it made sense. Using an orange talent to view a red talent, it was already impressive to see anything at all. Seeing such detailed information was obviously impossible. As for the original Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root talent being stored in the talent pool? Jiang Yifeng didn''t mind. After calming his excitement, he continued to look at the simtor. Chapter 279: Targeting by the Dao [Congrattions to the host for obtaining a one-time talent: Miracle.] [Miracle]: Turn the impossible into possible; you are that sliver of miracle. (Note: The specific effect depends on the situation, use with caution!) "What?" Jiang Yifeng looked at the new talent. He felt like today was his lucky day. First, he got the red spiritual root talent "Divine Spiritual Root"; then a one-time talent "Miracle." This was just too lucky. Although the effect of the "Miracle" talent wasn''t described in detail, just the word miracle itself made Jiang Yifeng imagine its power. This simtion was simply a perfect start!At this moment, Jiang Yifeng felt more confident about surviving to eighty million years ago in this cross-time simtion. His strength was already formidable, not fearing Dao-level experts. And with the Miracle talent added on. How could he lose? "Hahaha!" Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help butugh out loud. While he was excited, the simtor''s prompt continued. [Talent Pool: Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root, Absolute Rationality, Cmity Physique, Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root.] [Do you want to choose one to carry into the simtion?] "No!" Jiang Yifeng made his choice without hesitation. [The 34th simtion begins!] [You appear in a deste mountain.] [Looking around, you know you''ve entered the simtion.] [In this cross-time simtion, you haven''t descended into someone else''s body, so you have no memories.] [You are unfamiliar with this world.] [You don''t even know where you are.] [However, you are not anxious.] [You now possess the peak cultivation you have in reality.] [As long as you release your Divine Sense to investigate, you can learn a lot.] [Thinking so, you act.] [You instantly release your Divine Sense.] [Soon, you notice something amiss.] [You are being targeted by the Dao.] [Originally, with your current cultivation, your Divine Sense could cover tens of millions of miles.] [Now, it''s restricted to within ten thousand miles.] [At this moment, you finally understand what the simtor meant by saying that cklisted individuals are easily exposed.] [It''s not about being discovered by other experts, but being targeted by the Dao of this world!] ["Couldn''t they be clearer about this?"] ["***," you curse inwardly.] [Currently, your strength is barely enough to match a Dao-level expert.] [But facing the Dao of a world is still difficult.] [You must know, the Dao of a world and a Dao-level expert are not on the same level.] [As long as oneprehends a strand of Dao power, they can be considered a Dao-level expert.] [But the Dao of a world isposed of countless strands of Dao power.] [The key point is, the Dao of this world is not shattered like in the real world.] [At this moment, the Dao of this world isplete, at its peak.] [Feeling your Divine Sense being suppressed by the Dao, you worry if your strength will be affected.] [You quickly throw a few punches into the void.] [After feeling the power, you find these punches are slightly weaker than in the real world.] [However, you are indeed at the Ancient God realm of the starry sky.] [Your strength hasn''t been restricted.] [As for the attacks being slightly weaker than in reality, you think it''s rted to theplete Dao of this time period.] [This reassures you a bit.] [Since the Dao only restricts your Divine Sense, it''s not a big problem.] [To gather information, you can just walk a bit more.] [But is the Dao''s restriction on you, a cklisted individual, really that simple?] [Your Divine Sense is restricted to within ten thousand miles, leaving you with no information.] [You have no choice!] [You can only choose to walk, personally searching for a popted area to gather information and learn about the current state of this world.] [Looking at the destion around you, not knowing which direction might have people, you randomly choose a direction.] [You punch through the void and head in the chosen direction.] [A day passes, and you''ve traveled billions of miles, yet you haven''t seen a single person.] [Not just people, you haven''t even seen a single demonic beast.] [Although you know from previous cross-time simtions that aplete world is vast.] [From when you were in the eight-star Ancient God realm, it took you hundreds of years to reach the border, you could tell.] [But vast as it is, it shouldn''t be this deserted, right?] [Billions of miles; even if there are no people, not a single demonic beast?] [You look up at the sky, sighing inwardly, "I knew it wouldn''t be that simple!"] [You know this must also be the Dao targeting you.] [It''s intentionally or unintentionally lowering your fortune.] [Making you achieve nothing.] [You actually have the Child of Fortune talent.] [But clearly, that purple Child of Fortune is useless in the face of thisplete Dao.] [Since that''s the case, you can''t be bothered to do anything in vain.] [You directly descend to the ground; randomly find a ce with a better environment to temporarily settle down.] [After all, you know something major happened in this time period.] [And even thatzy Mystic Turtle knows a bit about it, so it must be an event affecting the entire world.] [You don''t believe the Dao can restrict you from knowing about something affecting the whole world.] [Thinking this, you are no longer in a hurry.] [You n to cultivate and enhance your strength in this unknown ce.] [After all, enhancing your strength is your most important task.] [Your n is good!] [But what happens next leaves you a bit frustrated.] [You start cultivating, trying toprehend the Dao.] [But the Dao runs away.] [You can''t sense a trace of Dao power.] [This is awkward.] [At the Ancient God realm of the starry sky, the main way to enhance is toprehend the Dao.] [Now that the Dao ignores you, how can you enhance?] ["***," you curse the simtor again.] [You were careless!] [In the days that follow, you engage in a tug-of-war with the Dao of this world.] [Whenever you cultivate, the Dao runs away.] [When you try to find a human settlement to gather information, the Daoes back to suppress you.] [At times, you find it both amusing and frustrating.] [Youin inwardly, "Who taught this Dao? It''s really annoying!"]N?v(el)B\\jnn [Time passes bit by bit.] [In the blink of an eye, three hundred years have passed.] [In such a long time, you haven''t enhanced your cultivation by a bit, nor have you seen a single person.] [You stare at the void, unable to help but curse at the Dao, "I ***"] [Unfortunately, it''s to no avail.] [It continues to do as it pleases.] [You are speechless; how idle must this Dao be to keep an eye on you all the time.] [In the end, you sigh helplessly and decide to do nothing.] [You stop cultivating, stop seeking information; you decide to oust the Dao!] [Isn''t it just a waste of time?] [WHO''s afraid of WHO?] Chapter 280: Leftover disaster! [In the blink of an eye, another five hundred years have passed!] [One day, you suddenly sense something amiss.] [The Great Dao has changed.] [It seems to have weakened a bit?] [You''re taken aback.] [Could the upheaval of this era have urred?] [Originally, you thought that with the Great Dao changing, it would stop focusing on you.] [But you were wrong.] [The Great Dao seems determined; even though it''s weakened, it still won''t let you go.][You''re quite speechless about this.] [Aren''t you just an unregistered entity? You haven''t done anything to disrupt the world, so why this?] [Unknowingly, you''ve been at a stalemate with the Great Dao for another eight hundred years.] [You''ve discovered that the Great Dao has be even more fragile; you can even sense cracks in it.] [Now its suppression on you is only about half of what it used to be.] [Yet even so, the Great Dao continues to suppress you.] [You frown slightly.] [Clearly, something has gone wrong in this world, even the Great Dao has cracks.] [In such a situation, why does the Great Dao still suppress you?] [Could suppressing you be more important than the Great Dao of a world being damaged?] [Impossible!] [You feel that things might not be as simple as you thought.] [Perhaps the Great Dao''s suppression of you isn''t because you''re an unregistered entity.] [But rather, it has a deeper meaning?] [You really want to ask the Great Dao some questions, but unfortunately, the Great Dao isn''t human; you can''tmunicate with it.] [You can''t keep dragging this out.] [You look at the Great Dao in the void and murmur, "Forgive me!"] [Then, you channel the Silent Destruction Fist and strike towards the Great Dao.] [You intend to break through with force.] [Previously, you could have done this too.] [But back then, the Great Dao was intact, without any damage; breaking through with force was too difficult.] [Besides, you didn''t really want to be an enemy of the Great Dao.] [Not because you feared it, but because you were worried about causing problems for the Great Dao; affecting future generations.] [You really didn''t want to be the key figure affecting future generations.] [This time, your cross-time simtion was originally just to observe the situation and develop yourself.] [You didn''t want your presence to change the dynamics of this era.] [But looking at the current situation, it''s hard to have things go as you wish.] [If you don''t act, the Great Dao keeps entangling you, and you can''t understand anything or cultivate.] [Unless you''re willing to waste this simtion.] [No, it''s not just about wasting this simtion, you might even lose the opportunity to simte this time period.] [After all, the simtor has warned that cross-time simtions can''t repeat the same time period.] [That''s something you can''t ept.] [Once you lose the opportunity to simte this time period, you might never understand much of the information.] [This forces you to act against the Great Dao.] [But just after youunched the Silent Destruction Fist, you regretted it a bit.] [You suddenly thought, could it be that the Great Dao is forcing you to act against it?] [In this way, it would pull you into the "history" of this time period? You''re no longer just a spectator?] [The punch has been thrown, and even if that''s the case, you can''t change it now.] [You constantly remind yourself to think twice before acting next time.] [It''s just one strike now, not much impact.] [Even if you enter "history," you can''t change this world.] [Thinking of this, you feel a bit more at ease.] [You know that even if you do enter history and affect the historical process, it shouldn''t impact reality!] [The simtion from a billion years ago has already proven that.] [However, you don''t like the feeling of being led by the nose; having your fatepletely controlled, as if it''s predestined.] [This is also why you''re reluctant to act rashly in this cross-time simtion.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [You want to try to break free from this feeling.] [Without thinking further, you turn your gaze to the Great Dao in the void.] [After youunched the Silent Destruction Fist, it actually fled.] [Yes, it fled.] [And this time, it fled far away.] [It seems it no longer intends to engage in guerri warfare with you.] [For a moment, you''re even more confused.] [You originally thought the Great Dao would confront your punch head-on.] [In this way, it could pull you into "history" even more!] [Again, it acted contrary to your expectations.] [Could it be that your guess was wrong?] [The Great Dao''s suppression of you wasn''t to pull you into this time period''s "history"?] [Then what was it for?] [Can''t figure it out, this world''s Great Dao is truly iprehensible.] [Shortly after the Great Dao retreated, you suddenly sensed arge number of life forms approaching from afar.] [You release your Divine Sense to investigate.] [Seeing those life forms, you furrow your brows.] [Fish? Strange fish with eight arms and eight legs walking onnd?] [What kind of demonic beast is this?] [Upon closer inspection, the realms of these strange fish are also peculiar.] [They seem to be cultivating the Divine Dao? Yet it doesn''t quite resemble the Divine Dao!] [What kind of system is this?] [You can''t quite understand.] [However, you notice that these strange fish are filled with hostility; and they''re also being suppressed by the Great Dao.] [Instantly, you think of many possibilities.] [Could it be that these strange fish are also unregistered entities like you?] [Unlike you, these strange fish have no scruples.] [They''re continuously attacking the Great Dao.] [Forcing the Great Dao to retreat step by step.] [Seeing this situation, you furrow your brows.] [Could the appearance of these strange fish be the major event of this time period?] [Thinking of this, you use the Chaos Heavy Pupil on those strange fish!] [Unknown Strange Fish: No realm (self-contained system); high-dimensional beings living in a mysterious region.] [Summary: This seems rted to someone breaking the World Gate billions of years ago.] [Seeing this, your face darkens.] [Great; you previously said you didn''t want to enter "history"!] [How is this not entering?] [This is clearly the trouble you left behind from your cross-time simtion to a billion years ago.] [The current situation is something you caused!] [From the moment you simted back to a billion years ago, it was already destined; you became part of this "history."] [From the information given by the Chaos Heavy Pupil, you can tell that these strange fish aren''t from this world; clearly, they''re unregistered entities like you!] [Unlike you, these strange fish are invading this world.] Chapter 281: Help on the main road! At this moment, you finally understand why the Great Dao suppresses and excludes you. The Great Dao might have mistaken you for being in league with those strange fish. After all, in the eyes of the Great Dao, there is no distinction between humans and beasts. It only knows that you, like those strange fish, do not belong to this world. As for why the Great Dao stopped suppressing you after your attack, you have some guesses. You think perhaps it recognized you. After all, the Divine Dao, Immortal Dao, and Martial Dao of this world were spread by you during that simtion a billion years ago. It''s possible that with your full-force attack, the Great Dao of this world recognized your identity. Of course, this is just your spection.Whether this is truly the case is uncertain. Besides, there''s another point you can''t quite figure out. ording to the information revealed by the Chaos Heavy Pupil, these strange fish appeared because you damaged the World Gate during a previous simtion. But that was billions of years ago. Why did they only erupt now? Why did the Great Dao only show signs of damage in the past hundred years? Could it be that these strange fish were traveling all this time? That seems unlikely! You shake your head, keeping these questions in mind. Perhaps by finding the original inhabitants of this world and inquiring, you might learn some actual circumstances. Putting aside all these questions, you look at those strange fish in the distance with some hesitation. Now, you face a choice. Should you take action or not? Will you stick to the original n, not altering this world and merely being an observer? Or will you take action to kill these strange fish and remedy the hidden dangers left by the previous cross-time simtion? It''s truly a dilemma. If you don''t act, this world seems to have been changed by your previous simtion. If you do act, you re-enter "history" once more! As you hesitate, those strange fish continue topress the space of the Great Dao. Forcing the Great Dao to retreat slightly. The advance of the strange fish continues. This is actually unavoidable, as the Great Dao is a set of rules. All its actions must follow fixed patterns; it cannot actively attack! Even in the face of crisis, it can only defend passively, suppressing external threats. At most, it can release more opportunities in this world, nurturing some Children of Fortune to save itself. Meanwhile, a mournful sound of the Great Dao echoes in your ears. Next, a scene unfolds before your eyes. You see that behind the Great Dao, there''s actually a tribe of over a hundred people. If those strange fish continue to advance, pushing the Great Dao back further. Then the people of this tribe will have no way to survive. Looking at the direction from which the sound of the Great Daoes, you murmur, "Is it asking me for help?" As soon as your voice falls, the sound of the Great Dao rings out intensely. It seems to be responding to your question. Seeing this situation, you smile wryly and mutter to yourself, "I''ve be attached!" They say the Great Dao is emotionless, yet now it''s protecting its world. In your capacity, why overthink when you can save your kin? Cultivation is about achieving rity of mind. As for everything else? Why trouble yourself unnecessarily? Let everything take its course. Having thought it through, you no longer hesitate. In an instant, you appear before those strange fish. "Boom!" You unleash one Silent Destruction Fist after another. Soon, thousands of strange fish are all in by you.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om It seems simple for you to kill these strange fish. But in reality, these strange fish are not weak. Though theyck realms, they have their own power system, each possessing at least the strength of the Saint realm. It''s precisely because of their strength that they can push the Great Dao forward,pressing its space. Of course, if the Great Dao didn''t reject them, it wouldn''t have to be this way. Ultimately, the Great Dao is being beaten because it rejects those strange fish, trying to protect its "people." Not long after you finish killing those strange fish, you sense arge number of life forms approaching. Instantly, a murderous intent surges from you; you prepare to fight again. Since you''ve already taken action, you naturally won''t hesitate again. Until you see the appearance of those approaching life forms and thenugh silently! Almost made a blunder! This time, the ones approaching aren''t strange fish, but humans! Genuine original inhabitants. Seeing this, you don''t act immediately. However, you don''t rx either, remaining vignt! These people are too strong, you dare not be careless. You''ve just observed with the Chaos Heavy Pupil. Among these people, there are over six hundred who cultivate the Divine Dao, each possessing the nine-star Ancient God realm. Besides those who cultivate the Divine Dao, there are also hundreds of martial cultivators and Immortal Dao cultivators. Each one''s strength is not weak, capable of rivaling Saints. With such strength, if they harbor hostility, being careless might lead to disaster. After all, you are currently only at the Ancient God realm of the starry sky, just one realm higher than those nine-star Ancient God realm Divine Dao cultivators. ? Although you have the War God Art as a trump card, they are numerous. Of course, you also know that these people are unlikely to be hostile to you. So many strong individuals acting together. It''s obvious they are organized. You think they are probably here to deal with those strange fish. However, it''s better to remain cautious. That group seems to notice your vignce and doesn''t approach directly. Instead, they salute you from afar, inquiring about the situation with the strange fish. Naturally, you don''t hide anything, telling them everything truthfully. After exining the situation, you also prepare to ask them some questions. But they seem to be in a hurry, and after knowing there are no strange fish here, they don''t give you a chance to ask; they leave in a rush. Leaving you with just one sentence: "With such strength, we hope you can contribute to the world; we hope to see you in the Holy City!" Watching their departing figures, you are momentarily speechless. Can''t they slow down a bit? If not answering questions, at least tell you where the Holy City is? If not, at least give a general direction? Forget it, it''s not important! They can run, and you can chase. Without hesitation, you follow in their direction. You keep following that group, not revealing yourself. Through repeated simtions, you already know that information obtained from others may not be urate. It''s better to verify with your own eyes. Now, by hiding your presence and following these people. You can actually learn more about the real situation. Chapter 282: Truly worthy of being the captain! [One monthter, you witnessed with your own eyes as those thousands of experts annihted arge group of monstrous fish.] [After destroying the monstrous fish, they didn''t stop.] [Seeing this, you continued to follow them.] [Three monthster, those thousands of experts once again annihted arge number of monstrous fish at another location.] [They continued without rest, heading straight for the next ce.] [...]N?v(el)B\\jnn [In the blink of an eye, three years passed.] [During these years, you never revealed yourself, only following that group of native experts.] [Through your observations, they seemed like a well-trained army; also like a group of firefighters.][Their goal was to annihte those monstrous fish.] [Once the fish were destroyed, they would quickly retreat and head to the next location invaded by the fish.] [Now, there''s one thing you can''t quite understand.] [Although the monstrous fish are strong and numerous, they are no match for these natives.] [Logically, they shouldn''t have been able to invade sessfully.] [Could it be that they were too hidden before, not discovered by the experts of this era?] [Until arge-scale invasion urred; only then did these human experts react?] [This is the only possibility you can think of for now.] [But even so, from the current situation, it''s only a matter of time before these monstrous fish arepletely cleared out.] [Is this considered a major event?] [Well, it seems so, as it affects the entire world.] [However, you still have some doubts in your heart.] [This isn''t quite what you originally imagined.] [You know the future situation; the world is divided into three, forming three continents!] [Could it be that the world turning into three continents billions of yearster wasn''t caused during this time period?] ["No, it''s still uncertain for now."] [You suddenly think that since the monstrous fish are high-dimensional creatures from a different world.] [Could there be even stronger creatures from the different world?] [After all, what you''ve seen so far is just the tip of the iceberg.] [The strongest among the local natives can only match a half-Dao level.] [This world has passed 300 million years since your previous cross-time simtion preaching.] [Logically, the Dao was more perfected before, and the probability of producing experts was greater!] [There must be Dao-level experts present.] [Perhaps more than one.] [Where have all these people gone?] [Would they just watch as the world is invaded?] [You don''t think so.] [Perhaps where those people are is the real battlefield; the ce most severely invaded.] [These monstrous fish might just be some that slipped through the!] [Thinking of this, you no longer have the mind to follow those who are clearing the monstrous fish.] [In a sh, you appear in front of that group, blocking their path.] [Being inexplicably blocked, the atmosphere among that group suddenly turns serious.] [For a moment, there seems to be a scent of gunpowder in the air.] [Until they see your appearance clearly, the tension gradually eases.] [After all, they had seen you a few years ago.] [They know you also cleared out a group of monstrous fish.] [Although not exactly allies, they feel the probability of you being an enemy is not high.] [Soon, the leader of the group steps out from the crowd.] [He frowns slightly, staring at you, and sps his hands, saying, "Fellow Daoist, we have important matters at hand, may I ask your intention?"] [Having followed these people for years, you naturally know the important matter he speaks of is clearing the monstrous fish.] [You have no intention of dying them, sping your hands, you say, "Fellow Daoists, please don''t misunderstand; I just want to ask a few questions."] [Before he can respond, you speak again, "I have been secluded in the mountains for a long time and have just emerged; I wish to inquire about the current situation."] ["Where do these monstrous fishe from?"] ["And where is the Holy City you mentioned earlier?"] [...] [You directly throw out a series of questions.] [As soon as you finish asking, many in the group change their expressions, showing a hint of killing intent towards you!] [However, it is quickly suppressed by their leader.] [The leader stares at you, sping his hands, saying, "Fellow Daoist, we are not very clear on the specifics; if you want to know, you should go to the Holy City!"] ["There you can find out everything you want to know!"] [After speaking, he points you in a direction, telling you that the Holy City is that way.] [After thanking him, you disappear from their sight.] [However, you don''t leave but instead hide nearby.] [Many of these people just now showed killing intent towards you.] [Although their leader is strong and quickly suppressed them!] [But you, who have mastered the way of killing, how could you not sense it?] [You want to see what you said wrong just now.] [Why did they suddenly show killing intent towards you?] [After you hide, that group thinks you''ve really left.] [Immediately, someone questions their leader.] ["Captain, why did you stop us just now?"] ["That person is obviously suspicious, with such cultivation, he ims to have been in seclusion too long to know where the monstrous fishe from? Unaware of what''s happening in this world?"] ["Ha, how is that possible? Anyone who has reached the immortal realm knows what''s happening in this world."] ["Who doesn''t know the monstrous fish are the ones that slipped through the from the front lines of the Holy City?"] [Facing the questioning voices, the leader chuckles and says, "The other party is very strong, if we were to fight him; even if we win, it woulde at a cost."] ["By then, how would we have the strength to annihte the countless monstrous fish?"] ["Moreover, I pointed him to the Holy City, where our human race''s supreme experts are; if he has any issues, he won''t be able to escape!"] [After hearing the leader''s words, everyone suddenly understands.] [Many secretly sigh: the captain is indeed the captain; thinking much further ahead than them.] [And you, hidden in the dark, also understand everything.] [No wonder they showed killing intent towards you.] [It turns out the questions you asked aremon knowledge in this world.] [It''s normal for them to think there''s something wrong with you.] [Thinking of this, you remind yourself to be cautious when you reach the Holy City; be careful with your words.] [In uncertain situations, even if you miss information, you can''t ask questions lightly.] [This isn''t the same environment as the real world, and your current strength is far from invincible.] [Previously, you thought you could survive against Dao-level experts; but after seeing that group of thousands of Saint realm experts.] [You''re a bit less confident.] [A team casually clearing misceneous fish has thousands of Saint realm experts.] [Then how many Dao-level experts does this world have?] Chapter 283: Holy City; Silver Waterfall! "No, that''s not right!" "The strongest in this world might not be at the Dao-level." "During this time period, when the Divine Dao is prevalent, it''s highly likely that the strongest are a group of Supreme Gods." "Their power is definitely stronger than the Dao-level." "Could they all be in the so-called Holy City?" "What if you say something wrong and they misunderstand you?" "Could you be besieged by a group of Dao-level or even Supreme God powerhouses?" "If that happens, can you still save your life?" "Nonsense! That''s simply impossible!""Thinking of this, you realize you need to be more cautious with your words and actions." "If you were really killed by allies, wouldn''t you be more wronged than Dou E!" "Indeed, in your heart, you still consider yourself allied with these original inhabitants." "After all, this world is also the predecessor of your real world." "You and the original inhabitants here are, in a way, fellow countrymen separated by billions of years." "The monstrous fish invading this world are the true enemies now." "After a brief contemtion, you head towards the direction of the Holy City." "Although going to the Holy City might be dangerous." "But this time, you came to gather intelligence through the simtion." "The situation is clear now; as long as you go to the Holy City, you can learn everything, so naturally, you cannot avoid going." "You continue moving in the direction given by the leader you met before." "A year passes in the blink of an eye." "During this year, you constantly traverse through space; yet you still haven''t reached the so-called Holy City." "With your current strength, if you were in the real world, you could have traversed thousands of realms, covering most of the world by now." "But in this time period, even though this world has been invaded, it is still iparable to the real world." "You feel that the real world is not even one ten-thousandth of this world!" "For a moment, you feel both amazed and guilty." "Amazed at how difficult it is for a world to remain eternal." "As for the guilt?" "It''s because all of this seems to be caused by your cross-time simtion." "Sighing, you dare not think too much!" "You''re afraid that overthinking will lead to more severe self-me." "During this year, you also encountered several teams of monstrous fish, which you easily wiped out." "In addition, you saw several teams dedicated to exterminating monsters." "The number and strength of those teams are simr to the thousand-man team you encountered before." "This makes you realize the strength of the human race in this world." "To have so many teams with Saint-levelbat power." "And this probably isn''t even the main fighting force of this world." "With such strength, to still be invaded, the enemy must be incredibly strong, which is quite terrifying." "You shake your head, deciding not to dwell on it." "The specifics of how terrifying it is will naturally be revealed once you reach the Holy City." "You once again begin to traverse the void at high speed." "Three years pass." "One day, you see a sea area."n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om "In this sea area, you sense a familiar fluctuation." "It''s a sixth-grade immortal formation!" "Looking at the Mystic Turtle sleeping soundly within the sixth-grade immortal formation, you can''t help but smile." "You step into the formation, looking at the muchrger little tortoise, and sigh, ''The world has changed, and you''re still sleeping, you''re something else!''" ?? "However, you don''t wake it up." "You simply cast a series of formation talismans into the sixth-grade immortal formation." "The sixth-grade immortal formation isn''t very safe, so you n to upgrade it." "In the blink of an eye, several days pass." "The original sixth-grade immortal formation has now be a Saint-level formation." "You believe that as long as there aren''t any major changes, this little guy should be safe." "Having done everything, you don''t n to stay; you''re ready to leave immediately." "But at this moment, a thought suddenly strikes you." "You''ve always spected that the cross-time simtion affected reality." "But is it a real-time effect? Or was it a fixed history that you just re-experienced? You''ve never been able to confirm." "You''re wondering if you can leave some kind of mark to verify it." "Based on previous simtion information, the Mystic Turtle is this little tortoise." "Leaving a mark here seems most appropriate." "After all, it can live to the time period of reality." "Thinking of this, you don''t hesitate any longer." "You begin leaving numerous marks unique to you within the formation." "You write ''Big Hammer Eighty'' on the left side of the formation; on the right, you write ''Little Hammer Forty.''" "Not enough, you also write in the middle of the formation: ''Imperial Jade Liquid Wine...''" "To be safe, you even write ''Odd changes, even remains unchanged!'' on the little tortoise''s belly." "Having done everything, you nod in satisfaction." "This should be reliable." "Once reality verifies it, you''ll know whether you changed history or simply lived someone else''s life." "After that, you don''t linger; you head towards the Holy City once more." "Little do you know, what you''ve done has made the little tortoise very ufortable." "It even went three whole years without sleep trying to erase the writing on its belly." "Three years without sleep! For a little turtle, that''s a severe punishment!" "After leaving the formation where the little tortoise is, you continue traversing above the sea." "At this moment, you feel like you know where the Holy City is built?" "Perhaps it''s built where the World Gate used to be." "Remember, during that cross-time simtion, you also passed through a long stretch of sea to reach the World Gate." "Time passes year by year." "Three hundred yearster." "You finally see a city in the sky from afar." "The city spans the horizon, with no end in sight." "However, what shocks you the most isn''t the city in the sky." "It''s the silver waterfall spanning tens of thousands of miles above the city!" "A silver waterfall gushing from the void." "The scene is magnificent." "Before long, you see monstrous fish asionally leaping out of the silver waterfall." "Most are ughtered by the strong in the Holy City." "But many still slip through, flooding into the sea, then invading this world." "From what you can see, the silver waterfall seems to be the path through which the monstrous fish invade." "You watch the silver waterfall from afar for a long, long time!" "After a day of observation, you find that only monstrous fish leap out of the waterfall." "There don''t seem to be any other creatures." "This makes you frown slightly." "Something''s not right." "If it''s just these monstrous fish?" "They couldn''t possibly pose a threat to the strong of this world." "You know it won''t be that simple." Chapter 284: Is this welcome? [Seeing no results from your observations, you decide not to make any wild guesses.] [Since the Holy City is right in front of you, why not just enter the city to gather some information?] [With a single step, you head towards the city in the sky in the distance.] [In the blink of an eye, you arrive outside the gates of the Holy City.] [You look at the massive city gate, rub your slightly reddened forehead, and feel at a loss for words!] ["What the heck?"] ["Setting up a wall of void to prevent people from entering the city directly is one thing."] ["But the city gates are tightly shut?"] [How are you supposed to get in?][Isn''t this just keeping people like you, who are willing to defend the world, out of the organization?] ["Bad review, I must give this Holy City a bad review."] ["The management is reallycking."] [As you continue to grumble in your heart, several powerful figures suddenly appear around you.] [After using the Chaos Heavy Pupil to observe for a moment.] [Your eyes narrow slightly, and you exim in your heart, "Goodness, truly impressive!"] [They are all from the Ancient God realm of chaos.] [You expected the Holy City to have many strong individuals, but this is too much!] [You haven''t even entered the city yet, and nearly ten Ancient God realm experts have casually appeared.] [In terms of realm, the Ancient God realm of chaos is equivalent to the half-Dao level of the Immortal Dao; theirbat power is even stronger than the half-Dao level!] [At this moment, you hear one of the Ancient God realm experts named Hu Junugh heartily and say to you, "Hahaha, wee, fellow Daoist, to the Holy City!"] [Hearing this, you raise an eyebrow!] [No way! Are these Ancient God realm experts here to wee you?] [Isn''t this a bit too enthusiastic?] [You''re just a minor Ancient God realm of the starry sky. Do you really have such influence?] [Could it be that someone from a previous cross-time simtion sensed you and recognized you?] [And then had these Ancient God realm expertse to greet you?] [Thinking of this, you feel a bit ted for a moment.] [You think to yourself, "Although my strength isn''t particrly strong in this time period, I have a lot of connections!"] [No, wait!]n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [Suddenly, you sense something amiss.] [If they''re weing you, why are they surrounding you?] [Although they don''t show any killing intent, their positions clearly encircle you.] [You immediately sense that something is wrong!] [This doesn''t look good, does it?] [What''s going on?] [For a moment, you can''t figure out what''s wrong!] [You cautiously watch these Ancient God realm experts, constantly calcting in your mind; if something unexpected happens and a fight breaks out, what are your chances of winning?] [In terms of numbers? No match; you''re utterly defeated!] [In terms of strength? You and they both cultivate the Divine Dao, but their realm is higher; you''re defeated again!] [In terms ofbat power? You''ve cultivated the War God Art; you have the ability to fight across levels!] [After some calctions, you conclude that you have the advantage; no need to panic...] [No need to panic, my foot!] [In the past, when you fought across levels, your opponents were from the Immortal Dao!] [Facing the Divine Dao, who knows how many levels you can still cross?] [At this moment, you''re already quite flustered inside.] [Just then, the Ancient God realm expert named Hu Jun walks up to you.] [He grabs your hand and, with a wide grin, says, "I suppose this fellow Daoist came to the Holy City to contribute to the welfare of all, right?"] [You feel that this person''s words and actions don''t quite match.] [Listening to him, it does seem like he''s weing you.] [But looking at their encircling stance, it doesn''t seem so friendly?] [What''s going on here?] [Why can''t you understand it?] [Seeing you not answering for a long time, Hu Jun''s smile fades, and he coldly says to you, "Fellow Daoist? Did you note to the Holy City to help? Not here to contribute to the welfare of all?"] [At the same time, several other Ancient God realm experts instantlyplete their encirclement of you.] [Judging by the situation, if you dare to say "no," you''ll be met with their thunderous attacks.] [Alright, now you finally understand!] [These people are just forcibly recruiting, aren''t they?] [However, you can''t quite figure it out.] [Forcibly recruiting at the gates of the Holy City? Is that reasonable?] [Since everyone knows this Holy City is the frontline, is there anyone whoes here not to help?] [Is that even possible?] [You know there definitely are.] [And quite a few!] [Otherwise, the actions of these Ancient God realm experts wouldn''t make sense.] [But if not to help, whye to the Holy City?] [It seems there are quite a few secrets in the Holy City.] [However, you don''t need to think about these for now.] [Once you''re inside the Holy City, you''ll find out.] [You don''t dwell on this issue any longer.] [Instead, you look at Hu Jun and the others!] [Since they''re just forcibly recruiting, there''s no need to have a conflict with them.] [For you,ing to the Holy City is not only to understand some situations but also to contribute in some way.] [So, you smile at them and tell them you''re here to help in the Holy City!] [Hearing your response, Hu Jun immediately grins, puts his arm around your shoulder, and acts like you''re close buddies.] [Seeing Hu Jun like this, you internallyment, "So realistic!"] [Afterward, you''re led by Hu Jun and the others through the gates of the Holy City.] [Just after passing through the gates, you immediately sense something is off.] [You can''t quite pinpoint what''s wrong at the moment.] [You just feel that the Dao here seems a bit off.] [It''s clearly different from the Dao outside the Holy City.] [Besides that, you also sense a very strong power of time.] [As you delve deeper into the Holy City, you find that there are hardly any people here.] [Aside from your group, there seem to be only a few elderly and children without cultivation.] [Strange, very strange.] [In a frontline city? How can there be no one?] [Have they all gone to the front?] [Not leaving anyone for defense?] [If that''s the case, it could be said that there''s a shortage of manpower, which might barely make sense.] [But how can there be elderly and children in a frontline city?] [That''s not reasonable, is it?] [Unable to figure it out, you can only silently remember all this information for now.] [After a long while, Hu Jun suddenly stops.] [He points to a residence and says to you, "You can stay there for now; in a few days, we''ll go to the front together!"] [Hu Jun leaves one person behind to stay with you, then hurriedly leaves with the others.] [It''s said to be forpany, but you understand that leaving someone is to monitor you.] [Clearly, Hu Jun doesn''t trust you.] [You don''t mind this!] Chapter 285: Is the river of time leaking? [You''re more concerned about what Hu Jun said about "changing defense."] [Where are they going to change defense?] [Will changing defense reveal the true enemy?] [You''re somewhat looking forward to it.] [But that''s all forter.] [You don''t want to waste the current time.] [So you set your sights on the Ancient God realm expert who stayed behind to "apany" you.] [You smile and try to get close to him: "Fellow Daoist, may I know your name?"] ["Surname Jiang!"][Of course, you already know the name of this Ancient God realm expert.] [After all, you have the talent of Chaos Heavy Pupil.] [Not only do you know he''s called Jiang Chen, but you also know he''s over a billion years old.] [You''re trying to get close to him just to gather some information.] [Hearing his cold response, you don''t mind and continue: "Fellow Daoist, your surname is Jiang too! Mine is also Jiang, turns out we''re from the same family!"] ["Hmm!"] ["Fellow Daoist, do you think we can withstand this invasion?"] ["Don''t know!"] ["Fellow Daoist, why are there children in the Holy City?"] ["There are!"] ["Fellow Daoist..."] [...] [Unbelievable! You''repletely speechless!] [This one is truly sparing with words.] [If his response exceeds three words, he''s basically just making it up.] [For instance, when you asked why there are children in the Holy City, he actually answered, "There are"?] [Isn''t thatpletely off-topic?] [You realize it''s impossible to get any information from this one.] [So you don''t bother with him anymore; you start wandering around the Holy City on your own.] [Walking around and observing might help you learn something.] [Jiang Chen doesn''t stop you from wandering; he just follows you like an essory.] [Of course, you know this is just on the surface. If you show any intention of leaving the Holy City, he''ll definitely take action.] [Three days pass in the blink of an eye.] [During these days, you haven''t explored much.] [Because in this Holy City, you can''t shatter the void.] [You don''t know if this inability to shatter the void is due to the arrangement of a supreme being or a change after the world''s invasion.] [All you know is that because you can''t shatter the void and can only fly, your exploration speed is severely limited.] [As a result, after three days, you haven''t discovered much.] [The only thing you can confirm is that there are indeed many children and elders in this Holy City.] [Not just a few; there are many.] [A frontline city with few cultivators, filled with children and elders.] [It''s truly strange.] [Ten days pass in the blink of an eye.] [One day, Hu Jun and his group return.] [Upon closer inspection, their numbers have increased.] [You remember there were only eight of them when they left, but now there are thirteen.] [Clearly, they went to expand their team.] [You scrutinize the five new additions.] [Curious whether these people came voluntarily or were conscripted by Hu Jun and his group.] [At this moment, Hu Jun waves his hand at you and says, "Follow me, we''re changing defense!"] [Hearing this, you no longer care whether those five people came voluntarily or were conscripted.] [What does that have to do with you?] [You quickly follow in Hu Jun''s footsteps.] [One day, two days, three days!] [You keep flying within the Holy City, always heading towards the silver waterfall.] [You''re not surprised by this.] [Those monstrous fish emerged from the silver waterfall.] [That waterfall is clearly problematic.] [Could the truly formidable invaders also be at the waterfall?] [You didn''t see them before because it was too far?] [You can''t help but start thinking this way.] [Another seven days pass in the blink of an eye.] [You finally arrive in front of the silver waterfall.] [No, perhaps it can no longer be described as a waterfall.] [It''s a vast expanse pouring down from the void.] [Previously, it seemed like a waterfall only because it was too far away.] [Now, standing in front of it, you can clearly feel its grandeur.] [Although the silver "waterfall" is vast, your attention is not on it.] [You''re more focused on the people in front of the "waterfall."] [You see a crowd standing before the rushing water.] [They continuously wave their hands, releasing streams of chaotic energy to block the falling water.] [At a nce, there are at least hundreds of thousands of them.] [It''s worth mentioning that these people are all Divine Dao cultivators.] [While you''re still in shock, Hu Jun in front of you shouts.] ["Area 97, Hu Jun here to change defense!"] [Shortly after Hu Jun''s voice rings out, you see a middle-aged man in a certain area in front of the "waterfall" looking this way.] ["1, 2, 3... 15!"]N?v(el)B\\jnn [After counting your numbers, he shouts to Hu Jun, "Brother Hu Jun, I can still hold on. Come back when your team is full!"] [Just as the middle-aged man finishes shouting, a strong-looking man beside him, appearing to be in his thirties, spits out a mouthful of blood.] [Instantly, a gap appears in his defense.] [Silver water sshes onto that person.] [You see that person''s body begin to change.] [In a brief moment, he transforms from someone in his thirties to a white-haired elder with a furrowed brow.] [No, that''s not the key point.] [That person also loses all his power, bing a mortal.] [Seeing this, Hu Jun quickly starts directing people to fill the gap.] [Hu Jun''s reaction is already quite swift.] [But it''s still toote.] [After that person lost his defense, the pressure on the already strained people in Area 97 increased exponentially.] [Before Hu Jun could arrange for people to fill the gap, more breaches urred.] [Several people in session were hit by the silver water.] [You see that everyone hit by the silver water, without exception, loses all their cultivation.] [Afterward, they be either elders or children.] [At this moment, you finally understand why there are so many children and elders in the Holy City.] [It turns out they were originally soldiers.] [But due to a briefpse in defense, they became children and elders.] [Besides this,] [You also seem to know who the real enemy is?] [It''s not some powerful being.] [It''s the silver "waterfall" hanging in the void before you.] [This "waterfall" is the most terrifying existence.] [It can strip away one''s cultivation and make them older or younger.] [No, perhaps it''s not just that.] [This transformation, with your strength and talent, you can''t even tell that those elders and children were originally cultivators?] [That''s truly frightening!] [You must know, this is just from a ssh of water.] [If one were directly submerged by this silver "waterfall," it could be even more severe.] [Suddenly, you think of the silver river you saw in thest simtion?] [Could this silver water be rted to the waterfall?] [You previously spected that the silver river was the river of time?] [If this waterfall is rted to that river,] [Doesn''t that mean the water from the river of time has flowed back into this world?] [Instantly, you think of people bing older or younger?] [This seems to be the power of time?] [You look at the silver waterfall and murmur in your heart, "Could it really be that the river of time is leaking?"] Chapter 286: Little golden gong! "Jiang Da, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and take your position!" "Jiang Da? Jiang Da..." Hu Jun''s voice kept echoing. Jiang Chen, who was usually silent, noticed you weren''t moving and quickly tugged at your sleeve, saying, "They''re calling you!" You were momentarily stunned. Oh right! You''re called Jiang Da now. Almost forgot! As for why you''re called Jiang Da? Heh, when you''re out and about, who doesn''t have a few aliases?This identity, naturally, is one you gave yourself. Hmm? Why Jiang Da and not something else? You''re just too "talented"; no one else coulde up with a name like this. With Jiang Chen''s reminder, you looked at Hu Jun, who was gradually turning red, and didn''t dy; you quickly moved to rece a strong defender from the original Area 97. Once you reached the defense position, Hu Jun instructed you to follow the operations of the others. You took a quick nce and learned it. It''s simply about continuously mobilizing the chaotic energy within and releasing it; merging it with the chaotic energy of others. This is quite simple; any Divine Dao cultivator could learn it with just a nce. After you settled into position, others continued to rece the original members of Area 97. After a while, all 15 of you had entered the defensive line. But a full team consists of 20 people. Your 15 people weren''t enough to rece everyone from the original Area 97. At this moment, the original defense team of Area 97 was still helping you guard this line. Just then, Hu Jun spoke to the captain of that team, "Brother Qi, you guys should withdraw too!" "Can you hold it?" The person Hu Jun called Brother Qi looked at Hu Jun with some concern. The meaning was clear; your team was too small, and he was worried you wouldn''t be able to hold the line. Hu Jun shook his head, "Brother Qi, don''t worry about us. You should go rest and regroup; isn''t it better toe back and relieve uster?" Brother Qi nced at Hu Jun and didn''t argue further. He understood that Hu Jun was right. Although he had a good rtionship with Hu Jun and didn''t want anything to happen to him. But as Hu Jun said, he could only help Hu Jun temporarily by staying here. Afterward, it would be even more troublesome. If he didn''t go to replenish his team now, who would relieve Hu Jun''s teamter? They all knew these defense zones had long been divided. There were no idle people in this Holy City! If he acted on impulse and no one came to change the defenseter, it could lead to the copse of Defense Line 97. Then it would be a series of chain reactions. It might even lead to a crisis of world destruction. If that happened, he would be a sinner for all eternity. After thinking it through, Brother Qi led his team away. At this moment, you finally understood why Hu Jun had previously resorted to conscripting people. It seemed that his previous team had encountered an ident, leading to a reduction in numbers. But there was one thing you still didn''t quite understand. You could understand Hu Jun grabbing others.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om But why "grab" you, who came to the Holy City? Although you agreed toe and help, Hu Jun did threaten you in essence. Logically, people whoe to the Holy City are here to help. He could have just told you directly, right? There must be some other reason. However, you don''t have the opportunity to investigate now. As for asking Hu Jun? You''ve tried that long ago. This guy is tight-lipped and won''t say anything. Just like Jiang Chen. No, that''s not right, he''s even tougher than Jiang Chen. With Jiang Chen, no matter what you ask, he still responds; although the responses are often irrelevant. But Hu Jun? If you ask him something he doesn''t want to answer, he just pretends to be deaf and ignores you! To this, you can''t help but mentallyin, "He changes his face so fast!" Back at the Holy City gate, he wasn''t like this to you. Since you can''t get an answer for now! You stop overthinking. You begin to fully release strands of chaotic energy, merging them into the wall of energy formed by the chaotic energy of hundreds of thousands of Divine Dao cultivators. ? The silver waterfall cannot fall to the mortal world, precisely because this wall of chaotic energy, formed by the efforts of hundreds of thousands of Divine Dao cultivators, is blocking it. Time flows by day by day. In the blink of an eye, three years have passed. Over the course of three years, you''vee to understand many things. For example, why are there only Divine Dao cultivators here? It''s because only the chaotic energy of the Divine Dao can block the silver water. And why do we need to keep changing defenses? Why not have all cultivators release chaotic energy together topletely block the silver waterfall? It''s because chaotic energy cannotpletely block the silver waterfall. The silver water is actually corroding the chaotic energy. So, everyone working together topletely block the silver waterfall is simply impossible. What everyone is doing now is merely dying theplete descent of the silver waterfall. Obviously, taking turns allows everyone time to rest and recover, which is more suitable for a prolonged battle. Of course, this is just your guess. But you think it''s probably close to the truth. After all, in the three years you''ve been here, you''ve never seen any so-called supreme beings. You think maybe those powerful beings are the key. Perhaps those supreme beings are thinking of other solutions. Right now, you tens of thousands of Divine Dao cultivators are probably just buying them time. Time passes, and in the blink of an eye, another seven years have gone by. One day, a strong cultivator in the Ancient God realm of the starry sky beside Hu Jun suddenly coughed up blood. At the same time, a small breach appeared in his section of the defense line. You saw a few strands of silver water starting to seep through the breach. Is it over? For a moment, your area became the focus. Besides you, strong cultivators from other areas also focused their attention. Everyone was worried you might lose the defense. At this moment, Hu Jun took action. Hu Jun first released a few strands of chaotic energy to patch up the breach caused by the starry sky realm cultivator. Then, you saw Hu Jun release a golden cymbal. The golden cymbal flew straight towards the strands of silver water. Next, you saw the golden cymbal actually catch all the silver water. Seeing this, you could hardly believe it. How is that possible? The silver water, which could cause cultivators in the Ancient God realm of chaos to lose their cultivation and even age and shrink, was actually stopped by a small golden cymbal? Chapter 287: Some effect, but not much! [You can''t help but wonder; could this golden cymbal be some kind of supreme treasure?] [But that can''t be right, you don''t sense any aura of a magical artifact from the golden cymbal!] [Could it be that the silver water only affects living beings or objects with life, and is useless against lifeless items like the cymbal?] [No, that doesn''t seem right either!] [If the water from the silver waterfall only worked on living things,] [Then it would be easy to use non-living items to collect the silver water, solving everything effortlessly.] [There would be no need for tens of thousands of Divine Dao cultivators to use chaotic energy to block the silver waterfall.] [You feel the issue lies with the golden cymbal itself.] [For a moment, you be curious about this golden cymbal.][You gaze at the golden cymbal and directly use the Chaos Heavy Pupil.] [You want to see what this thing really is!] [Instantly, information about the golden cymbal appears before you.] [Golden Cymbal: Originally an ordinary golden cymbal; but after being submerged in a mysterious river for a long time, it seems to have be extraordinary; it can resist the power of time.] [Note: It''s just an ordinary golden cymbal, though it has some special effects! But it''s only effective on itself; it cannot be refined into a magical artifact.] [Summary: An old, ordinary golden cymbal, somewhat useful; but not much!] [Looking at the information about the golden cymbal, you frown slightly.] [As expected, the problem is with this golden cymbal.] [It can actually resist the power of time.] [Although it can''t be refined into a magical artifact, sometimes it can be used as one.] [Like Hu Jun''s recent maneuver.] [He directly used this golden cymbal to save a strong cultivator from the Ancient God realm of the starry sky.] [ording to the introduction from the Chaos Heavy Pupil; this golden cymbal was obtained from a mysterious river.] [And it can resist the power of time; the only thing you can think of is the river of time.] [At this moment, you''re curious about how Hu Jun got this golden cymbal.] [With only the Ancient God realm of chaos, Hu Jun couldn''t possibly have ventured into the river of time.] [Let alone obtained something from it.] [You look towards the silver waterfall!] [Thinking to yourself: "Could it have flowed out from this waterfall?"] [You previously spected that this silver waterfall might be caused by a leak from the river of time.] [If your spection is correct, it seems quite possible.] [Just as you think of this, you suddenly see clusters of things flying out from the silver waterfall.] [They bypass your defenses, and you can''t pursue them.] [Upon closer inspection, most of the clusters are monstrous fish; with a few inexplicable metal pieces or branches.] [Those monstrous fish and various debris aren''t falling along the silver waterfall.] [Instead, they''re being flung by the rapids, flying in all directions.] [Your defenses are ineffective against these monstrous fish and debris!] [However, no one is anxious.] [There are already specialized teams to deal with those monstrous fish.] [You''re aware of this.] [You''re more concerned about the debris.] [You think perhaps Hu Jun''s golden cymbal is like those pieces of debris; flung out by the silver waterfall.] [Thinking of this, you seem to understand why Hu Jun was recruiting people at the gate of the Holy City.] [Could it be that the waterfall frequently flings out various debris?] [Could many of these debris have effects simr to Hu Jun''s golden cymbal?] [Or even stronger effects?] [If so, it''s possible that many peoplee to the vicinity of the Holy City just to treasure hunt, not to help!]n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [Perhaps there are quite a few such people!] [After all, human nature isplex; all kinds of people exist.] [If that''s the case, everything seems to make sense.] [Three years pass in the blink of an eye.] [One day, Brother Qi, the captain from before, arrives with a group to relieve you.] [Your team of 15 has mostly been holding on; as the captain, Hu Jun doesn''t refuse.] [Your group withdraws from the front line.] [After thirteen years of fighting side by side, Hu Jun has developed a basic trust in you and the others he recruited.] [He no longer assigns people to watch over you, even allowing you time to visit your families; with just a reminder to gather at the Holy City in ten years!] [After that, most people leave the Holy City to attend to their own matters.] [Only three remain in the Holy City; the captain Hu Jun, you, and Jiang Chen!] [Hu Jun looks at you and asks, "Jiang Da, why don''t you go home and take a look?"] [Home? Do you even have a home in this world?] [You smile and shake your head, saying to Hu Jun, "I don''t have any family now!"] [To be fair, you''re quite precise; you indeed have no family in this time period.] [Your family is seven hundred million years in the future!] [But Hu Jun doesn''t understand the meaning behind your words.] [He thinks you''re like him, with family who have passed away!] [Instantly, Hu Jun feels a sense of camaraderie with you; he pats your shoulder, growing a bit closer to you.] [In the days that follow, you stay with Hu Jun and Jiang Chen.] [Besides cultivating, you spend your time searching for Divine Dao cultivators.] [As for the purpose?] [Simple, to recruit more people!] [After all, your team isn''t full.] [Last time, the defense almost had an ident.] [This time, you need to recruit a few more people.] [You''ve ultimately gone from being recruited to recruiting others.] [Is this what they call the dragon yer bing the dragon?] [As you be more familiar with Hu Jun and Jiang Chen,] [You''ve also learned a lot of information they were initially unwilling to share.] [For example, Hu Jun''s golden cymbal; it indeed came from the debris flung out by the silver waterfall.] [Hu Jun says his golden cymbal is quite ordinary, with limited use.] [He mentions that he originally obtained two golden cymbals.] [But one was broken during an experiment.] [ording to Hu Jun, it wasn''t a severe impact, just a fall from a height of over ten meters.] [Hearing this, you''re momentarily stunned!] [You recall the Chaos Heavy Pupil''s summary of the golden cymbal; indeed, talent is reliable, the cymbal is somewhat useful, but not much!] [ording to Hu Jun, the cymbal is only effective against the sshes from the silver waterfall; it serves no other purpose.] [Even the sshes can''t be toorge.] [Afraid the cymbal isn''t big enough to cover everything?] [No, it''s not just that, there''s also the fear of the ssh''s impact being too strong, breaking the cymbal.] [Well, it turns out it''s not very useful after all!] Chapter 288: Goodbye, Two Leopards! [However, Hu Jun also mentioned that his golden cymbal isn''t very useful.] [But good things have indeed flown out of that silver waterfall.] [There are materials for crafting magical treasures, as well as some iplete magical treasures.] [Those materials and iplete treasures might not be of very high grade.] [But they all have one characteristic: immunity to the power of time.] [Speaking of these materials, a gleam appeared in Hu Jun''s eyes. He said that if enough materials could be gathered, it might be possible to forge a magical treasure topletely resolve the danger of the silver waterfall.] [In fact, Hu Jun isn''t the only one with this idea; many others share the same thought.] [Because of this, there are quite a few teams in the Holy City dedicated to collecting those materials.] [Hu Jun''s golden cymbal was obtained from those teams.][One has to admit, Hu Jun has quite a wide circle of friends.] [Although the golden cymbal can''t be used to craft a magical treasure, it''s not entirely useless.] [For those defending the silver waterfall, it can still be a lifesaver at critical moments.] [Just like when Hu Jun saved that starry sky realm expert from his team earlier.] [Obviously, not everyone can obtain such a thing.] [When Brother Qi''s team got into trouble before, he didn''t use anything simr to save his teammates, which supports this conclusion.] [Additionally, you confirmed your previous suspicions from Hu Jun''s words.] [Indeed, many cultivators only want to seek the treasures flying out of the silver "waterfall" around the Holy City; they don''t want to join the ranks of world guardians.] [Because of this, Hu Jun resorts to conscripting people around the Holy City.] [When he mentioned this to you, Hu Jun seemed a bit embarrassed.] [After all, you were also conscripted by him in a simr manner.] [You didn''t mind, though, and waved it off, telling him not to worry about it.] [As for other questions, like where the strongest in the Holy City have gone or if there''s another n,] [You asked about these too.] [Hu Jun just shook his head, indicating he didn''t know.] [It makes sense when you think about it. Although Hu Jun is quite capable, there are countless small captains like him in the Holy City.] [It''s normal for him not to know about the strongest.] [However, you didn''t notice that when you mentioned the strongest, Jiang Chen''s expression changed slightly, as if he was worried.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this. He raised an eyebrow and murmured to himself. "I knew there was something off about Jiang Chen!" After multiple simtions, Jiang Yifeng had a general understanding of the simtor''s pattern. Anyone whose name appears in the simtor isn''t a simple character. But Jiang Yifeng wondered how Jiang Chen knew about the strongest. Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng thought of a question. The surname Jiang? Could he be rted to Jiang Erbao? If so, it would make sense. After all, Erbao''s talent was extremely high. Three hundred million years passing and bing the strongest isn''t surprising. As for whether Jiang Erbao could live for three hundred million years? That''s not an issue at all. When his cultivation was low, Jiang Yifeng thought a lifespan of three hundred million years was long and exaggerated! But now he wouldn''t think that way. For example, now. Even though he''s only at the Ancient God realm of the starry sky, he practically has infinite lifespan. Unless something unexpected happens, it''s impossible for him to die of old age naturally! Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng wondered if he should conduct a deep simtion. To inquire about Jiang Chen''s specific situation? After pondering for a long time, Jiang Yifeng shook his head. "Forget it!" There''s no point in asking Jiang Chen now. With Jiang Chen''s evasive answers, What information could he possibly get? Better to wait! Wait until the strongest appear. By then, he might even meet some old acquaintances. Like "Jiang Erbao," or others he taught in that simtion ten billion years ago.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om Jiang Yifeng couldn''t believe it. He taught so many people back then, and not one of them reached the pinnacle? "Wait!" Jiang Yifeng suddenly thought of a question. Even if he meets old acquaintances? What if they don''t recognize him then? It''s important to know that this cross-time simtion is different from those three hundred million years ago. Back then, the Divine Dao was rare. Once Jiang Yifeng disyed the Divine Dao, people like Da Hu could quickly recognize him. But in this simtion, the Divine Dao is everywhere? Moreover, his appearance in the cross-time simtion isn''t consistent. It might indeed be hard to identify him? No, that''s not right. Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng thought of the Dao of Causality. Even if his appearance changes each time, There must be a deep causality between him and those he taught. If someone he taught before reached the Supreme God level, Even if they don''t specialize in the Dao of Causality, they should sense something! After all, during a previous simtion, the Supreme God-level Innate Demon God "Yu" sensed causality. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng felt reassured. He decided to let the simtion develop on its own; he would conduct a deep simtion to understand the situation at a critical moment. So, he continued to look at the simtor. [Unknowingly, several years passed.] [Hu Jun led your group to switch defenses with Brother Qi again.] [It''s worth mentioning that this time your team underwent a major change.] [Of the 15 people fromst time, only you, Hu Jun, and Jiang Chen returned to the Holy City, along with six others.] [That''s right, half of those who went home to visit family didn''t return.] [Many of those people were conscripted, and after gaining freedom, not returning to the Holy City is actually normal.] [This situation was within Hu Jun''s expectations.] [In fact, Hu Jun could use some control methods on those conscripted.] [But in the end, Hu Jun is a soft-hearted person; he doesn''t want to use methods onrades who have fought alongside him!] [Fortunately, during the previous conscription, you recruited more people.] [Now, your team, although not full at 20 members, is better thanst time, with 19 people.] [Time passed slowly as you continued to wield chaotic energy.] [In the blink of an eye, decades passed.] [Brother Qi came again to switch defenses.] [In the days that followed, you repeated the process of resting, conscripting, switching defenses, and resisting the silver "waterfall."] [It seems you''vepletely integrated into this world.] [In the blink of an eye, a thousand years passed.] [One day, you saw a dozen figures walk out of the "silver" waterfall.] ["Who are they? How did theye out of the waterfall?"] [You were taken aback and instinctively used the Chaos Heavy Pupil.] [What you saw shocked you!] [Among them, three were at the Supreme God level, and the rest were all Dao-level Immortal Dao cultivators.] [Among the three Supreme Gods, you saw a familiar name, "Jiang Erbao."] [At this moment, Jiang Erbao appeared as a middle-aged man, exuding an aura of authority.] [Perhaps this is the majesty developed from long-term high positions.] [Of course, this is just your guess; it might also be innate.] [After all, you don''t have a specific impression of Jiang Erbao; during previous cross-time simtions, you couldn''t conduct a deep simtion and could only see his name through the simtor.] ??? [As you looked at Erbao, his gaze also turned to you!] [Jiang Erbao''s originally stern face softened slightly.] Chapter 289: Are you Uncle Erman? Jiang Erbao''s expression changes, and you notice it all. It seems he''s recognized you! Suddenly, you feel both joy and worry. The joy is that if he''s recognized you, it will be much easier to inquire about things. The worry is that Erbao doesn''t seem to have turned to the dark side, so why did he create the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao? Could it be because of the current crisis? Thinking about it, it seems quite possible. The situation is clear now; only Divine Dao cultivators can stop that silver waterfall. What if arge number of Divine Dao cultivators no longer follow orders and refuse to contribute?Initially, you could use Hu Jun''s previous method of forced conscription topel those Divine Dao cultivators. But obviously, that''s not a long-term solution. You can''t always have someone watching over those conscripted Divine Dao cultivators. So, it''s very likely that in the end, they''ll find a way to turn willing Immortal Dao cultivators into Divine Dao cultivators. In this way, the creation of the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao seems justified! Stripping the Nascent Souls of those unwilling Divine Dao cultivators and letting willing Immortal Dao cultivators practice the dark arts to be Divine Dao beings. Of course, this is all your spection. Whether it''s true or not needs to be verified in the future. At this moment, you''re more curious about how Erbao and the others managed to walk out of the silver waterfall.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om Where did they go through this silver waterfall? Could it be that the waterfall really leads to the river of time? Did they go to the source to find a way to save this world? As for why they weren''t affected by the time power of the water in the silver waterfall? On this point, you''re not surprised. After all, you learned from previous simtions that Dao-level experts can briefly traverse time. If they can traverse time briefly, they must have some immunity to the power of time. Erbao''s group, with the lowest strength being Dao-level, can avoid being affected by the silver waterfall for a short time, which is quite normal. Of course, you think it''s just a short-term immunity, notplete immunity. As for the reason? If Dao-level experts could bepletely immune, the world wouldn''t be in such turmoil. They could easily have a Dao-level expert use their avatar to physically block the silver waterfall. You believe there would be such noble individuals. Of course, even if there weren''t, if sacrificing a Dao-level expert or a Supreme God could block the silver waterfall, someone would definitely force one of them to sacrifice themselves. That''s human nature. The fact that this hasn''t been done means that even Dao-level experts, or even Supreme Gods, can''t be immune to the silver waterfall for long periods. Even if they use their avatars, they can only block the silver waterfall for a short time, not solve the problempletely. While you''re lost in thought, Jiang Erbao suddenly appears in front of you. Before you can speak, Erbao grabs you and Jiang Chen and leaves. As he takes you away, a Supreme God who was originally with Erbao appears at your previous position, recing you and Jiang Chen. Instantly, the pressure on Hu Jun and others in Area 97 is greatly reduced. A Supreme God is far more powerful than you and Jiang Chenbined. There''s no need to worry about any gaps. Even if the water from the silver waterfall sshes out, the Supreme God can withstand it for a while. Some are happy, some are worried! Hu Jun and others are excited. But Jiang Chen is not. At this moment, you and Jiang Chen have been brought by Jiang Erbao to a side hall in the Holy City. As soon as yound, Jiang Chen nervously calls out to Jiang Erbao, "Brother Erbao!" Hearing Jiang Chen''s address for Erbao. Suddenly, you feel a bit strange! Wait, what''s going on? Jiang Chen calls Erbao ''brother''? Are they from the same generation? That''s too far-fetched! You''ve seen Jiang Chen''s information through the Chaos Heavy Pupil, and you know that although he''s not young, he''s only a million years old! But Jiang Erbao has lived for a solid three hundred million years. The age gap is just too big! Could it be that Jiang Chen is a reincarnation from three hundred million years ago? Using the old address for Erbao? Is that it? Doesn''t that mean Jiang Chen might also be from the original Azure Flood Dragon Tribe? Could he have been taught by you? Forget it, it''s not important! Whatever Jiang Chen''s situation is, it doesn''t matter to you. Now that you''ve met Erbao, you can directly ask him many things. Just as you''re thinking this, Jiang Erbao speaks. He snorts coldly at Jiang Chen, "Hmph, who let you run out? And to the front lines; if something happened to you, how would I exin it to Uncle Niu!" "Since Peach disappeared, Uncle Niu has been depressed for billions of years. It was only after you came along that he felt a bit better." "Don''t you know how to be a bit more sensible?" Erbao points at Jiang Chen and starts lecturing him. Jiang Chen lowers his head, not daring to talk back. Meanwhile, your mind is in turmoil. Erbao''s words contain a lot of information. Uncle Niu? Another familiar name! If you remember correctly, that''s Peach''s father! You didn''t expect him to still be alive. And even thriving; having Jiang Chen in thest million years! Doesn''t that make Jiang Chen Peach''s younger brother? That''s quite unbelievable! And Erbao mentioned Peach''s disappearance? What''s that about? Not long after, Jiang Erbao points at Jiang Chen and says, "Go sit over there, I''ll send you hometer!" After lecturing Jiang Chen, Jiang Erbao finally turns his gaze to you. After a moment''s hesitation, he asks somewhat uncertainly, "Are you Uncle Erman?" Erman; that was your name in the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe during that cross-time simtion ten billion years ago. Back then, you didn''t let the children you taught call you Master. Erbao and the other children of that time would call you Uncle Erman! At this moment, Jiang Erbao isn''t entirely sure if you are his Uncle Erman. After all, your strength doesn''t match that of his Uncle Erman. In Erbao''s mind, his Uncle Erman was the one who pioneered the path of cultivation. He, who was taught back then, has already be a Supreme God. As the founder, Uncle Erman couldn''t possibly be weaker than him. However, he can clearly sense a strong karmic connection with you. The power of karma is a very mysterious force. Erbao can sense that you have a strong connection with him. It feels as if without you, he wouldn''t be who he is today. That''s why Jiang Erbao thinks you might be his Uncle Erman. After all, with his current strength. Who could he owe? Any previous karmic debts have long been repaid. The only one he hasn''t repaid is Uncle Erman, who led him into the Dao. Chapter 290: Deep simulation; Jiang Yifeng with a robbery impulse! Upon hearing Erbao''s straightforward question, you didn''t deny it; you nodded and admitted that you were once Jiang Erman. Admitting this identity is definitely more advantageous for you now. Receiving a positive response, Jiang Erbao felt a surge of joy. Although he didn''t understand how you became like this or why your strength remained so low, none of that mattered anymore. No matter what, you were still his Uncle Erman, his Master. He secretly thought to himself that he would protect you in the future. As for whether you were deceiving him, Jiang Erbao wasn''t worried at all. With his current strength, he could see parts of causality; he could tell at a nce if you were lying. Anyone whose strength wasn''t far superior to his couldn''t possibly deceive him.After confirming your identity, Jiang Erbao intended to take you back to the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe. He told you that Uncle Niu would definitely be happy to see you. Hearing Erbao say this, the questions you originally wanted to ask him were temporarily set aside. Since you were going to the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe, you might as well ask them allter. Besides, you wanted to see if the Azure Dragon was still there and check on the dragon egg in the river not far from the tribe. For a moment, both you and Erbao were in high spirits. Only Jiang Chen''s expression didn''t look too good. His brother Erbao actually wanted him to call you Uncle! Not long ago, you were all brothers andrades; how did he suddenly be a generation lower than you? However, Jiang Chen had no choice. Even his Supreme God-level brother Erbao called you Uncle; what else could he do? In the end, Jiang Chen reluctantly called you, "Uncle Erman!" "Yes!" you responded naturally to the blushing Jiang Chen, without correcting the issue. To be precise, Jiang Chen didn''t need to call you Uncle. After all, you called Jiang Chen''s father, Jiang Daniu, Uncle Niu. By that calction, you and Jiang Chen were actually of the same generation. In fact, the same applied to you and Erbao. You both called Jiang Daniu Uncle Niu, so you were considered peers. But because you once taught Erbao and others during a deep simtion, even though you were peers, they still respectfully called you "Uncle Erman" when you didn''t allow them to call you Master. ? You were sure that not correcting this wasn''t about taking advantage of Jiang Chen. It was all for his own good! If even the Supreme God Erbao called you "Uncle," wasn''t it fitting for Jiang Chen to do the same? That''s right, exactly! Three days passed in the blink of an eye. You and Jiang Chen were taken back to the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe by Erbao. By now, the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe had changed dramatically. It was no longer a tribe but a magnificent giant city. Before you could marvel at it, Jiang Erbao had already brought you to a hall in a mansion. "Uncle Erman, I''ll go call Uncle Niu and the others over." Leaving those words, Erbao dragged Jiang Chen away. Clearly, Erbao intended to take Jiang Chen to Uncle Niu first. For a moment, you were the only one left in the vast hall. In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this and murmured to himself. "It''s time for a deep simtion!"n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om Based on the information he had now, it was clear that Jiang Erbao was friendly. He even wanted to protect him. With Jiang Erbao''s Supreme God-level strength, there was almost no safety issue with deep simtion now. And now that Erbao was separated from his simted self, it was the perfect time for deep simtion. If Erbao had stayed with his simted self, Jiang Yifeng would have hesitated to start a deep simtion. In his understanding, deep simtion was akin to switching ounts in a game. There might be some disturbances during this period. This wasn''t something to worry about when his strength was low. But now that his real strength had increased, Jiang Yifeng had to consider it. Even if Jiang Erbao was an ally, Jiang Yifeng thought it was better to be cautious. Of course, Jiang Yifeng wasn''t sure if the Supreme God-level Jiang Erbao could sense the disturbances when he "switched ounts." He wanted to be as prudent as possible. As for why Jiang Yifeng wanted to perform a deep simtion, the reason was simple. He wanted to see the dangers from seven billion years ago with his own eyes. To see the silver waterfall. To see Jiang Erbao. Although these were all disyed on the simtor, Jiang Yifeng had never seen them with his own eyes. This was uneptable! Without seeing them firsthand, if he encountered them again in the next simtion, he might not be able to recognize whether they were the same person or object. People were easier to identify, thanks to the Chaos Heavy Pupil. But objects were another matter. For instance, the door. Was the "World Gate" from ten billion years ago the same as the door he saw in the ancient relic during ater simtion, or the door in reality? Were they the same type? This couldn''t be confirmed. Because the simtor never explicitly said they were the same. It only referred to them as "doors." What if there were different types of doors? This was uncertain. For this reason, Jiang Yifeng felt that any unusual item in the future needed to be recorded through deep simtion. This way, if he encountered the same item again, he could make a more urate judgment. After a brief contemtion, Jiang Yifeng didn''t hesitate and silentlymanded. "Start a deep simtion for a hundred years!" [Ding, the host has begun a cross-time deep simtion for a hundred years; origin values deducted; remaining origin values.] As the simtor''s voice sounded, Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness instantly entered the simtion. He found himself in a grand hall. Touching the floor, Jiang Yifeng discovered that the seemingly ordinary ground was actually paved with pieces of dark chaos stone. Chaos stone? This was a treasure for enlightenment. In the real world, it was almost extinct. Here, it was used to pave the floor. Jiang Yifeng resisted the urge to pry up the floorboards and began to examine the other objects in the hall. "Beams made of phoenix wood; crafted chairs." "Pirs of the hall forged from Primordial Spirit Stone." ... For a moment, Jiang Yifeng was astounded. "Tsk tsk tsk... Truly worthy of the ancient times!" At this moment, Jiang Yifeng admired his simted self from before. How did he control the urge to loot all these treasures? "Out of sight, out of mind! Out of sight, out of mind!" Taking a deep breath, Jiang Yifeng closed his eyes and began to meditate. As long as he couldn''t see it, he wouldn''t have the urge to dismantle the hall and pack everything up. Chapter 291: Jiang Daniu; a fathers love is as steadfast as a mountain! "Erman, is it really Erman who''s back?" After a long while, an excited voice echoed from outside the grand hall. Jiang Yifeng, upon hearing the voice, slightly opened his eyes. He saw an elderly man rushing towards him! Beside the old man was Jiang Erbao. Without even using his Chaos Heavy Pupil, Jiang Yifeng could tell that the old man was undoubtedly Jiang Daniu. But why did Jiang Daniu look so old? What kind of preference was this? Normally, once one''s cultivation reaches a certain level, their appearance can remain fixed.Unless they deliberately choose to look old. Jiang Yifeng shook his head, not bothering with Jiang Daniu''s preferences. Seeing the tears glistening in Jiang Daniu''s eyes, he knew clearly that this was the emotion of a long-awaited reunion. Unfortunately, he couldn''t empathize. For him, it was just a few simtions. The previous cross-time simtion encounter with Jiang Daniu was merely a textual description. Before today, he didn''t even know what Jiang Daniu looked like. How could he understand Jiang Daniu''s feelings now? Understanding or not, he still had to y his part. Jiang Yifeng quickly stood up, his voice choked as he approached Jiang Daniu!n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om "Uncle Niu..." Ahem, Jiang Yifeng insisted this wasn''t deceit; he was just being considerate. With the other being so sentimental, not giving any response would be quite awkward. Witnessing this touching scene of uncle and nephew, Jiang Erbao quietly retreated. After a long time, Jiang Daniu''s excitement finally subsided. He began to ask Jiang Yifeng where he had been all these years and why there had been no news... To these questions, Jiang Yifeng merely sighed and replied, "It''s a long story!" To Jiang Daniu, this surely meant Jiang Yifeng had encountered some unfortunate events and didn''t wish to bring them up. So he didn''t press further. Seeing the opportunity, Jiang Yifeng took the chance to ask the question on his mind. "Uncle Niu, I heard from Erbao that Peach has been missing for a long time? What''s the situation?" He had thought about asking Erbao directly. But upon reconsideration, since Erbao said he couldn''t find Peach, he must have searched already. What use would it be to ask him? It was more appropriate to ask Jiang Daniu. After all, he was Peach''s father. Even if he didn''t know where Peach went, he should be able to find some clues from where she used to live! Hearing Jiang Yifeng mention Peach, a hint of sadness appeared on Jiang Daniu''s face. After a moment, he sighed and said, "Not long after you left the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe, Peach disappeared." "We all thought she went to find you!" "But now that you''re back, Peach..." As he spoke, Uncle Niu''s voice choked up again. Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng frowned. He hadn''t expected Uncle Niu to be unaware of Peach''s situation. Moreover, from Uncle Niu''s words, Jiang Yifeng understood why Jiang Daniu was so excited to see him. He thought Peach was with him. Now that he appeared, Jiang Daniu assumed Peach would too. s, they were back to square one. However, Jiang Yifeng was still somewhat unwilling to give up. Afterforting Uncle Niu for a while, he asked again, "Uncle Niu, is Peach''s former residence still around?" ording to Jiang Yifeng''s thinking, since Peach disappeared shortly after he left, without a trace, it was likely she left voluntarily. Perhaps some information could be found in her former residence. But as soon as he asked, he realized a problem. It had been billions of years. How could Peach''s former residence still exist? Jiang Yifeng felt foolish. Yet, Jiang Daniu''s response surprised him. Jiang Daniu said that the current Azure Flood Dragon Tribe had only expanded around the original tribe! Everything from the original Azure Flood Dragon Tribe remainedrgely unchanged. Especially Peach''s former residence, which hadn''t been touched at all. He wanted Peach to feel familiar when she returned! Hearing this, Jiang Yifeng thought to himself, "A father''s love is as steadfast as a mountain." He couldn''t believe the entire Azure Flood Dragon Tribe refrained from rebuilding just for Peach. Surely, Jiang Daniu had paid a great price to secure this. For a moment, Jiang Yifeng''s impression of Jiang Daniu greatly improved. Indeed, before this, his impression of Uncle Niu wasn''t particrly good. After all, in the previous cross-time simtion, based on the simtor''s information, Jiang Yifeng knew that Jiang Daniu''s family didn''t even let Peach eat her fill. ?? They even gave Peach away to the simted version of himself. Although the simtor mentioned it was due to ack of food, no matter the reason, letting his daughter go hungry and even giving her away didn''t make Jiang Yifeng think Jiang Daniu was a good father. But now it seemed otherwise. Jiang Daniu was a good father. Perhaps the situation back then was so dire that Peach couldn''t eat her fill, went hungry, and was even given away! Shaking his head, Jiang Yifeng didn''t dwell on it. No matter what, it was all in the past. Afterward, Jiang Yifeng suggested visiting Peach''s former residence. ¡ª¡ª The original Azure Flood Dragon Tribe was located at the very center of the current tribe. The old-fashioned stone houses of the tribe stood in stark contrast to the luxurious buildings on the outskirts. Jiang Yifeng followed Jiang Daniu into one of the stone houses. ording to Jiang Daniu, this was the room Peach lived in when she was home! The room was spotless, clearly showing that someone regrly came to clean it. However, Jiang Yifeng''s attention wasn''t on that. He carefully examined everything in the room, hoping to find some clues. Jiang Daniu, aware of Jiang Yifeng''s intentions, didn''t interrupt. Even though he had searched the room many times without finding any information left by Peach, what if there was something? Perhaps he had overlooked something. Although he knew the chances were slim, people always held onto a glimmer of hope. Unsurprisingly, Jiang Yifeng found no useful clues here. However, he wasn''t disappointed; this was just the first ce. Besides Peach''s residence, there was another ce that might hold information. That was the ce where he had lived during the previous simtion. Not only had he lived there, but Peach had also stayed there for a while. ording to that simtion, Peach''s life before wasn''t good; it only improved after she followed him. Chapter 292: The message left by my future self Chapter 292: The message left by my future self Humans are inherently subjective creatures. Even though Peach''s previous unhappiness wasn''t something Jiang Daniu intended to cause, the fact remains unchanged. Perhaps, for Peach, the ce where she once lived with him might be more to her liking than her original home. The likelihood of her leaving a message there is greater! With this thought, Jiang Yifeng didn''t linger. He had Jiang Daniu take him there. As he stepped into the unfamiliar house, he noticed the cobwebs everywhere. It was clear it hadn''t been cleaned in a long time. Jiang Yifeng nced at Jiang Daniu.He sighed inwardly, "So, all those feelings you showed before were fake! Your daughter''s room is spotless, but mine is like this?" Jiang Daniu, seeing Jiang Yifeng''s inexplicable gaze, wanted to exin that it was Jiang Erbao''s responsibility to clean this house. But over the years, Erbao had been away for long periods, and it ended up like this. However, he swallowed his words. No matter what, it was indeed something he hadn''t considered. In the end, he could only smile awkwardly and say, "I''ve checked here too, but found no clues!" Hearing this, Jiang Yifeng was taken aback. Right! Peach had lived in this house before; if Jiang Daniu wasn''t foolish, he would naturallye to check. Could it really be that there are no clues at all? But Jiang Yifeng felt that Peach''s disappearance was too unusual. Peach couldn''t have vanished without a trace for no reason. Jiang Yifeng had considered whether Peach might have died long ago! But that didn''t make sense. In previous simtions, Little Peach had repeatedly demonstrated extraordinary power. And Little Peach was suspected to be Peach''s reincarnation or perhaps a fragment of her soul. Thus, it could be concluded that Peach couldn''t have died that early. Eliminating the possibility of Peach''s death, there was only one situation left. She left for some reason. But based on previous simtions, apart from her family in the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe, Peach only had a good rtionship with him. So the answer was clear: Peach''s departure was rted to him. ording to Jiang Daniu, when Peach disappeared, her cultivation level wasn''t high. So how did she manage to disappear without a trace? Unless someone helped take her away? But who could that person be? The ck-robed man? No, that''s not right. If it were that ck-robed man, he could have found Peach at that time. He could have found me too. It wouldn''t have been necessary. Moreover, that ck-robed man was an enemy of mine. If he had taken Peach, Little Peach wouldn''t have been able to unleash her power in previous simtions; Peach wouldn''t have been able to lend her strength across time to protect Little Peach. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng felt that if someone took Peach away, it would only be an ally! So who could it be? As he let his imagination run wild, Jiang Yifeng suddenly thought of a possibility. His future self! Yes, his future self. If it were his future self, he wouldn''t stop Peach from helping him. Peach wouldn''t refuse to leave with him. Naturally, there would be nomotion. With this thought, Jiang Yifeng frowned slightly. If his guess was correct, why would his future self do this? Could it be that something went wrong? Did he take a wrong path that needed correction? So he wanted to intervene in the present from the future? If that''s the case, then there must be clues left behind. With this thought, Jiang Yifeng decided to carefully investigate this house. He scanned the room meticulously. Jiang Yifeng didn''t dare to miss any detail. After a long while, Jiang Yifeng suddenly noticed something unusual. There were too many round objects in this room.N?v(el)B\\jnn Nine out of ten items were round. He didn''t remember liking round shapes so much! Could it be that Peach liked them? Jiang Yifeng went to Jiang Daniu''s house again and took a look at Peach''s previous residence. No, there wasn''t a single round object. Peach didn''t like round shapes either. For a moment, Jiang Yifeng felt a bit scared. At this point, he could conclude that the round shapes were messages left for him. And they were left by his future self. Because only he could understand this message. No one else could know his preferences so well. But what exactly happened in the future? Why did he need to do this? Why did he have to leave such cryptic messages? And what did the round shapes represent? For a moment, Jiang Yifeng couldn''tprehend it. Afterward, he searched the house for a long time, hoping to find other messages. Unfortunately, there were none; there were no more anomalies. Jiang Yifeng didn''t share the information about the round objects with Jiang Daniu and Jiang Erbao. Since his future self made it so cryptic, there must be a reason. Either there were untrustworthy people around him, or someone was monitoring him. Or there might be other reasons. But no matter what, one thing was certain: this information wasn''t meant to be shared. He couldn''t ask others to help solve the mystery of the round objects. He could only rely on himself. Days passed in the blink of an eye. Jiang Yifeng temporarily set aside the matter of the round objects. There was too little information for him to specte. He thought it was better toplete the tasks he had nned before. Like seeing the silver waterfall with his own eyes. And figuring out how to resolve the crisis in this world. So, he went to the Holy City again with Jiang Erbao. Jiang Yifeng witnessed everything firsthand. The silver waterfall was even more magnificent than he had imagined. It wasn''t just a waterfall; it was like the heavens pouring down. At a nce, it looked like the sky had cracked open! After seeing the silver waterfall, Jiang Yifeng naturally asked Jiang Erbao about the current situation and how it could be resolved. But Jiang Erbao just shook his head. He said there was no solution for now. ording to Erbao, he and several experts had already delved into the silver waterfall to assess the situation. Behind it was a massive river filled with the waters of time. Letting the silver waterfall dissipate naturally waspletely impossible. As for blocking the silver waterfall? Jiang Erbao said they had already tried. For that, two Dao-level experts and one Supreme God had been sacrificed. He said that the silver waters of time, if touched briefly by a Dao-level expert, wouldn''t have much effect. But if touched for a longer time, even Dao-level experts and Supreme Gods would get lost in the power of time. With luck, they might appear in another time and space. With less luck, they would die directly in the time fog. Everything they were doing now was just dying death. Hearing this, Jiang Yifeng frowned slightly. Was there really no solution? After pondering for a long time, Jiang Yifeng said, "If there are enough Divine Dao cultivators, could we use chaotic energy to block the silver waterfall?" Yes, Jiang Yifeng had resigned himself to the situation. If enough Divine Dao cultivators could solve the problem, he was prepared to reveal the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao! Unfortunately, Jiang Erbao just shook his head. "Chaotic energy can only temporarily slow the flow of the silver waterfall; no matter how many Divine Dao cultivators there are, it can''tpletely solve the problem!" At this point, Erbao''s tone shifted. "However, if there are always enough Divine Dao cultivators, we can indefinitely extend the time before this world is destroyed." "Perhaps one day in the future, an unparalleled expert will appear and solve this problem; that''s also a possibility!" Hearing this, Jiang Yifeng felt a bit disappointed. He hadn''t expected that even after preparing to reveal the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao, it still couldn''t solve the problem. However, being able to extend the time indefinitely was also a good thing. So he said, "Erbao, I have a method to convert Immortal Dao cultivators into Divine Dao cultivators, but it''s somewhat dark; it requires using a Divine Dao cultivator as a guide!" Chapter 293: Unknown Territory! The Imprisoned Peach Just as Jiang Yifeng was about to reveal the details of the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao, Jiang Erbao interrupted him. "Uncle Erman, you mustn''t!" "The evil method you''re talking about, I can roughly guess; it''s not yet the time of desperation, this technique must not see the light of day!" "Otherwise, the defense line we''ve painstakingly built might be breached by the Immortal Dao cultivators!" Jiang Erbao''s reaction waspletely unexpected for Jiang Yifeng. However, upon hearing Erbao''s words, Jiang Yifeng understood his concerns. If this evil method were to spread, the first to copse might be the Holy City. After all, the Holy City is currently the ce with the most Divine Dao cultivators. If those Immortal Dao cultivators learn that there''s a dark art that can convert them to the Divine Dao, some might set their sights on the Divine Dao cultivators guarding the silver waterfall.Human nature is unpredictable. There are bound to be such people. After all, at this time, all cultivators know that the Divine Dao is the strongest, even capable of withstanding the silver waterfall. Some uninformed Immortal Dao cultivators might believe that by cultivating the Divine Dao, they could fear neither the silver waterfall nor the apocalypse. These are all uncertain matters. Indeed, now is not the time for the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao to emerge. As for Jiang Erbao''s rough knowledge of the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao? Jiang Yifeng wasn''t actually surprised. After all, the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao are really quite simple. As long as one deeply understands what the Divine Dao is, knowing the underlying logic of the Divine Dao, it''s not hard to deduce. Now, Erbao is a Supreme God-level Divine Dao cultivator. How could he not understand? The reason the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao haven''t emerged isn''t due to ack of technique; it''s because Erbao feels it''s not yet the time of desperation. Erbao clearly refused Jiang Yifeng''s Dark Arts of the Divine Dao, indicating he didn''t need it. Yet Jiang Yifeng uncharacteristically insisted on revealing the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao. He conveyed the entire Dark Arts of the Divine Dao to Erbao through a voice transmission. This left Jiang Erbao bewildered. What''s going on? Didn''t he say it wasn''t needed? Why insist on forcing it? However, Erbao didn''t say much more. After all, he knew the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao weren''t much. He himself is a Divine Dao cultivator; would he even cultivate it? Moreover, the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao were quite simr to what he had thought of before. Even if "Uncle Erman" didn''t say it, creating it wouldn''t be difficult for him. As for Jiang Yifeng? What he was thinking now was: Is my guess correct? Does a circle represent a closed loop? Indeed, Jiang Yifeng insisted on revealing the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao because he was actively promoting a closed loop. Upon seeing the numerous circles he left as hints for the future, the first thing that came to his mind was a closed loop. After all, in previous simtions, there had been many closed-loop scenarios. This made Jiang Yifeng wonder if his future self, at some point, failed toplete a closed loop, leading to something bad. So, he left hints for his current self toplete the loop? Or is it that the closed loop is a trap? To break the loop? With these spections, Jiang Yifeng came up with an idea. To activelyplete a non-existent closed loop. This way, if he is meant to promote the loop,pleting one more shouldn''t have much impact. If he is meant to break out of the loop? A loop that originally shouldn''t have beenpleted by him, if hepletes it, should have some effect! Perhaps this is akin to nting a seed here. Maybe it could help him in the future. Of course, these are all just Jiang Yifeng''s spections. There''s a high possibility that they''re all wrong. So, he needed to choose something that wouldn''t significantly impact the future toplete the loop. Even if his guess is wrong,pleting this loop wouldn''t have serious consequences. That''s why he chose to reveal the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao. In Jiang Yifeng''s understanding, this loop shouldn''t have beenpleted by him. After all, for Erbao, a Supreme God-level Divine Dao cultivator, creating the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao is easy. Initially, Jiang Yifeng was unsure and hesitant. Until Erbao said it wasn''t needed, that he could bring the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao to light anytime he wanted. This instantly made Jiang Yifeng resolute. Good, truly excellent. He needed this kind of loop that shouldn''t exist. So, even after Erbao outright refused the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao, Jiang Yifeng still stubbornly transmitted the dark arts to Erbao. No matter what, this loop was forciblypleted by him. As for what changes it might bring, Jiang Yifeng didn''t know. --- In an unknown ce. A ce even the simtor couldn''t reach. A woman sat cross-legged in the void. Suddenly, a burst ofughter echoed from the void. "Hahaha, your young master is still as foolish as ever, creating non-existent loops." "Soon, soon, with a few more loops, my n will seed." Hearing this, the woman sitting cross-legged sneered. "Hehehe, let me think, how many times have you said that?" With that, she really started counting on her fingers. Immediately, the entire void trembled, and the woman spat out a mouthful of blood. But she wasn''t worried at all. Instead, sheughed even louder. "Hahaha, you''re anxious, you''re anxious!" In the blink of an eye, a phantom ck-robed figure appeared before her, gripping her throat. Seeing this, the woman''s eyes lit up. "Come on,e on, kill me if you dare!" "What, don''t dare? You little trash!" "****!" A torrent of "national essence" spewed from the woman''s mouth! She kept provoking the ck-robed man. Seeing this, the ck-robed man suddenly released his grip on her throat, sneering. "Heh, trying to provoke me? Want me to kill you?" "You want to die? Want your remaining soul fragment to receive your memories?" "Hahaha, I won''t let you have your way!" Although he wouldn''t kill the woman, she had dampened his spirits, so he decided to give her some suffering. With a wave of his hand, the ck-robed man banished the woman to a space filled with void beasts. The woman wasn''t surprised by this! This wasn''t the first time. She knew what awaited her was endless battles; constant revival and death. However, she wasn''t afraid. In fact, she was a bit excited. Although being banished to this space would be painful. But only here did she have a chance to leave the void, to get away from that ck-robed man. Only here did she have a chance to descend to her soul fragment, to catch a distant glimpse of the young master. This woman was none other than Peach. The previous outburst of Little Peach was actually triggered by Peach in this space. And to be precise, it wasn''t really a crossing of time and space. Peach and Little Peach were never reincarnations; they were the same person. Little Peach was a soul fragment Peach intentionally left behind. Her contingency n. As for when she left this contingency? It was before she was captured by the ck-robed man.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om How long ago exactly, she didn''t know. After all, in the void, there is no time. Perhaps it was just recently! Chapter 294: Already fallen into the trap? At this moment, Jiang Yifeng was still immersed in deep simtion. He waspletely unaware of everything in the unknown ce. To him, it seemed like he had just made a casual move in a game of chess. After mentioning the Divine Dao''s dark arts, he chatted with Er Bao for quite some time. From Er Bao, he learned that there was indeed a silver river behind the silver waterfall. Moreover, the waters carried the power of time. Jiang Yifeng''s previous spections were mostly correct. Having gathered enough information, Jiang Yifeng didn''t linger in the Holy City and bid farewell to Er Bao. Since he had managed to conduct a deep simtion, he wanted to take a good look at this world.After all, his presence in the Holy City was neither significant nor necessary. As a mere cultivator in the Ancient God realm of the starry sky, he couldn''t y a crucial role. Besides, with Er Bao''s connection, he wasn''t worried about being forcibly summoned back to the Holy City again. After leaving the Holy City, Jiang Yifeng didn''t have any specific goals. Most of the tasks he nned for this deep simtion had beenpleted. Only the dragon egg and the Azure Dragon remained unfound. Previously, when Jiang Yifeng was at the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe, he had already checked the great river there. He didn''t find the Azure Dragon or the dragon egg. But that wasn''t too surprising. After so many years, it was normal for the Azure Dragon to have moved. Since that was the case, Jiang Yifeng didn''t feelpelled to find them. So he began to wander aimlessly. To witness everything from ancient times with his own eyes. Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, a hundred years had gone by. During those years of travel, he visited many ces. He could say he witnessed the splendor of ancient times firsthand. Elixirs were everywhere, and Divine Dao cultivators were abundant. If it weren''t for the threat of the silver waterfall, everything would have been so beautiful. This made Jiang Yifeng feel a bit guilty. That silver waterfall was something he had created during a previous simtion! But could he be med? He just wanted to escape from that ck-robed man. He wanted to disrupt the timeline to save himself. In truth, it all started because that ck-robed man was hunting him. Suddenly, a bold idea formed in Jiang Yifeng''s mind. Why did he need to disrupt the timeline? It was to escape the ck-robed man''s cross-time pursuit! Why was the ck-robed man hunting him? He had always thought it was because the ck-robed man had a grudge against his past life. But did he really have a past life? Everything affecting reality seemed to be caused by his cross-time simtion. Of course, even if he had a past life. Even if the ck-robed man was hunting him because of it. Why did the ck-robed man only appear once? If he could cross time to find him once, couldn''t he find him a second time? Was he really that lucky? No, something was very wrong. If the ck-robed man wanted to kill him, why not wait at the end of time, where he could surely catch him? Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng felt like he had grasped something! Perhaps the ck-robed man''s goal was never to kill him. But to scare him. To use his hand to destroy the "World Gate"! Creating the current scenario. But what was the ck-robed man''s purpose in doing this? To destroy this world? But the ck-robed man''s power was clearly much stronger than his. If he wanted to destroy the world, he could do it himself; why go through all this trouble? He couldn''t figure it out. For a moment, Jiang Yifeng found himself in a dead-end. However, there was one thing he could be sure of. Previously, he might have truly fallen into the ck-robed man''s scheme. But what use was it to understand now? Everything had already happened. He couldn''t just create a World Gate out of thin air to make up for his past mistakes. Right, since that was the case, could the circr clue also have been left by the ck-robed man on purpose? No, that''s not right! How would the ck-robed man know his preferences? Moreover, that circr object, to be precise, wasn''t even a preference. It was just something he neither liked nor disliked. Jiang Yifeng shook his head, feeling like he was overthinking things. "Sigh!" He sighed, deciding not to dwell on it anymore. By now, there wasn''t much time left before the deep simtion ended. He needed to record these thoughts and the events of these years. To facilitate his actions in future simtions. Those spections; he would think about them slowlyter! In the blink of an eye, several days passed. One day, an electronic voice sounded. [Ding, deep simtion ended!] Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness returned to reality. He rubbed his forehead, recalling everything from the deep simtion. Recalling his spections. In the end, it all turned into a cold smile. "What a grand scheme!" Gradually, Jiang Yifeng''s gaze became sharp. But that sharp looksted less than two seconds before turning into azy expression; hey directly on the bed. Deep simtion was exhausting, and he wanted to lie down and watch the subsequent simtions! It was trulyfortable. [You paused for a moment, realizing you were not in your previous position.] [Soon, you realized you had been deeply simted.] [So, you opened your storage ring and quickly found the memory crystal you left behind.] [After a long time, you roughly understood everything during the deep simtion.] [Those spections are temporarily useless to you.] [The things you needed to understand in this simtion have been mostly understood, and you feel it''s time to cultivate.] [So, you headed back to the Holy City.] [If you''re going to cultivate, you definitely need to find Er Bao.] [With the backing of a Supreme God, you have to get some high-level resources.]n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [After finding Er Bao, he didn''t ask much when he heard you wanted to cultivate.] [He directly tossed out a pile of rare resources.] [He even threw over a few Daos for you toprehend directly.] [Looking at the Daos Er Bao sent, you couldn''t help but exim, "666!"] [The backing is truly sweet!] [Others have tomunicate with the Dao bit by bit toprehend it.] [You directly grab the Dao, letting it assist you in cultivation; you just want to shout, "Who else?"] [As for why Er Bao could casually throw a few Daos to help you cultivate?] [This brings up the difference between the Divine Dao and the Immortal Dao.] [The Divine Dao emphasizes control. At the Supreme God level, one can make the Daos they control obey them.] [So Er Bao can summon the Daos he controls at any time to help you cultivate.] [While the Immortal Dao at the Dao-level is about borrowing.] [Dao-level experts cultivating the Immortal Dao can''t do what Er Bao does.] [Of course, if a Dao-level expert has a high affinity with a specific Dao andmunicates well, they might persuade it to help.] [But whether it helps or not depends on the Dao''s mood.] [At this moment, the Daos Er Bao gave you are different.] [With Er Bao''smand, they will continuously assist you in cultivation.] [With abundant resources and the help of the Daos.] [In the days that followed, you did nothing but cultivate.] [Time flowed, and in the blink of an eye, a thousand years passed.] [After a thousand years, you finallyprehended a trace of the Fire Dao.] [As for why it was the Fire Dao?] [Among the Daos Er Bao controls, the Fire Dao is the one he controls most strongly.] [When the Fire Dao helps you cultivate, it is the most diligent.] Chapter 295: Eat too well! You feel the trace of the Great Dao of Fire you''veprehended, and a smile appears on your lips. "Training really requires resources and background!" The resources and Great Dao provided by Er Bao saved you an unimaginable amount of time! This is the Great Dao, not merews; the difference in level is immense. Even if it''s just a trace of the Great Dao''s power, others would need tens of thousands, even hundreds of millions of years toprehend it! Toprehend a trace of the Great Dao, in the Immortal Dao system, is to be considered at the initial half-Dao level; fully understanding a Great Dao means reaching the Dao-level. Think about it, it''s been over three hundred million years since you preached the Dao a billion years ago. Now, there are only a dozen Dao-level experts. There are only hundreds of thousands at the half-Dao level, and even if you count those in the Ancient God realm of chaos who have alsoprehended the Great Dao''s power, it''s only a few hundred thousand.Don''t think that a few hundred thousand is a lot; consider how vast this world is, how many people there are. These few hundred thousand don''t even make up one billionth of the world''s poption! After billions of years of cultivation, those who canprehend a trace of the Great Dao''s power are less than one billionth. And you, in just a thousand years, haveprehended a trace of the Great Dao''s power. This shows how significant Er Bao''s assistance has been for you. At this moment, havingprehended a trace of the Great Dao of Fire, you feel a step closer to the Ancient God realm of chaos. However, you don''t really understand how to break through to the Ancient God realm of chaos. Fortunately, in this era, the Divine Dao period, there are many experts in the Ancient God realm of chaos. They have long paved the way. You easily found out the conditions and methods to break through to the Ancient God realm of chaos. Of course, you eventually sought out Er Bao to inquire about it. No matter how many are in the Ancient God realm of chaos, none can be as urate as the Supreme God. Originally your "disciple," Er Bao has now be your master. What a twist of fate. Through Er Bao''s exnation, You learn that as long as youprehend a trace of the Great Dao''s power, you have a chance to directly break through to the Ancient God realm of chaos. Of course, it''s just a chance. The specifics vary from person to person.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om The method to break through to the Ancient God realm of chaos is to initially merge theprehended Great Dao''s power with the chaotic energy within your body. To be precise, it''s to merge it with the trace of the Great Dao''s power contained within the chaotic energy. This is actually one of the reasons why Divine Dao cultivators canpletely control the Great Dao. Because that trace of the Great Dao within the chaotic energy is inherent to Divine Dao cultivators. Once other Great Daos merge with it, they be imbued with the personal will of the Divine Dao cultivator and are driven by it. Back to the main point. Because breaking through to the Ancient God realm of chaos requires a simple fusion of the Great Dao''s power with the chaotic energy within the body, This involves a problem. The total amount of chaotic energy within each person is different. After all, the size of each person''s Qi Sea is set at the beginning of cultivation. This means that the amount of Great Dao''s power each person needs to fuse also varies. This makes it more difficult for those withrger Qi Seas to break through. They mustprehend more Great Dao''s power. Just like you! Of course, this is also an advantage. The more chaotic energy within, the harder the breakthrough, but once achieved, thebat power will be stronger, and the potential will be greater. This makes you reflect, who would have thought that the foundation of the Qi Sea at the beginning of cultivation would still have an impact at this level. Moreover, ording to Er Bao, the role of the Qi Sea might not be limited to this. He said that ever since he reached the Supreme God, he has been unable to break through again, perhaps because the foundation was not wellid! He said, ording to his spection, for the Supreme God to advance further, the quality of chaotic energy needs to be improved again. This might be rted to the amount of fusion between chaotic energy and the Great Dao. Quantitative change leads to qualitative change; if enough Great Dao is fused with chaotic energy, it might enhance the quality of chaotic energy again. But he doesn''t have enough chaotic energy to fuse with enough Great Dao to cause a quantitative change. Perhaps this is why he cannot continue to break through. After hearing Er Bao''s spection, a question suddenly arises in your mind. Can''t different Great Daos be fused together? Why is it necessary to have enough chaotic energy? You voice your doubt. Hearing this, Er Bao justughs and exins, "We Divine Dao cultivators only have our will contained within the chaotic energy!" "That trace of will is the foundation of our control over the Great Dao." "Once a single trace of chaotic energy fuses with arge amount of Great Dao''s power, our trace of will would be diluted." "When that will is almost diluted, perhaps it won''t be us controlling the Great Dao, but the Great Dao controlling us?" Hearing Er Bao''s words, you suddenly understand. So that''s how it is. It seems that the total amount of chaotic energy is indeed very important. Fortunately, your Qi Sea isrge, and the chaotic energy is abundant. Thanks again to the dragon egg. Back then, your Qi Sea was forcibly expanded by the dragon egg. Who would have thought it would have such a great use? However, the feeling of being manipted bes more pronounced in your heart. Could it be that encountering the dragon egg, devouring the dragon egg, was all arranged by someone? The purpose was to give you arge enough Qi Sea to reach a realm beyond the Supreme God? Thinking of this, you quickly shout in your heart, "Stop, stop!" You can''t think about it, can''t think about it, you''re worried that if you continue thinking this way, you won''t dare to cultivate anymore. After calming down, you also take the opportunity to inquire about the conditions and key points for breaking through from the Ancient God realm of chaos to the Supreme God. Since you''ve already asked for guidance, you might as well ask everything at once. Regarding your inquiry, Er Bao answers without hesitation. He says that breaking through to the Supreme God is simple; you just need toprehend aplete Great Dao and merge it with the chaotic energy within! Er Bao says the only difficulty is not taking the wrong path, not fusing too much chaotic Great Dao''s power during the Ancient God realm of chaos! If too much chaotic Great Dao''s power is fused during the Ancient God realm of chaos, it will leave insufficient chaotic energy to fuse aplete Great Daoter. Hmm! If that''s the case, it doesn''t sound too difficult! The only difficulty is knowing this information andprehending aplete Great Dao. You must be dreaming! Countless Chosen spend billions of years and may not fully master a Great Dao. And you actually think it''s not difficult! It can only be said that Er Bao has fed you too well, making it too easy for you toprehend a trace of the Great Dao''s power. You haven''t truly experienced the difficulty ofprehending the Great Dao. Chapter 296: White-robed person; unknown strongman! **[However, what Erbao said next made you deeply understand what it means to be supreme.]** He said, "As long as you fullyprehend a certain Dao and merge with the chaotic energy, you canpletely control that Dao and be its master!" "In this world, if you don''t want others toprehend that Dao, no matter how extraordinary their talent is, they won''t be able to grasp even a trace of it." "This is the Supreme God!" After hearing Erbao''s summary of the Supreme God, you finally realized the terrifying power of the Supreme God. This is true control. To be able to directly control a Dao, allowing others toprehend it only if you wish. This made you yearn for it. Afterwards, you didn''t ask any more questions.Bidding farewell to Erbao, you went into seclusion to cultivate once again. You aim to achieve supremacy as soon as possible. Well, that''s a big goal, so let''s aim to be an Ancient God of Chaos first! In cultivation, time flies, and three thousand years pass in the blink of an eye. One day, while you were cultivating, you suddenly felt a massive tremor! You opened your eyes to find Erbao standing in front of you. He called out softly, "Uncle Erman, hurry; the silver waterfall can''t be held back anymore!" With that, Erbao didn''t wait for your consent and flung you out of the Holy City; your body uncontrobly flew ind! In mid-flight, you nced at the location of the silver waterfall. It copsed, the sky was falling! The silver waterfall was expanding. No wonder Erbao said it couldn''t be held back. Soon, you saw Erbao transform into a giant, heading towards the silver waterfall. He alone blocked arge section of the silver waterfall. You frowned slightly. He said it couldn''t be held back, so what''s he trying to do? Is he risking his life? Yes, he truly is risking his life! Not just Erbao. There were also numerous Divine Dao cultivators. After Erbao acted, you saw one Divine Dao cultivator after another directly confront the silver waterfall. The moment they approached the waterfall, they self-destructed! Instantly, a massive amount of chaotic energy surged from within those Divine Dao cultivators. This was far more than the chaotic energy they had previously released voluntarily! They wanted to use this act to forcibly intercept the silver waterfall. Although everyone knew this was just a temporary solution; ultimately, it would be hard to stop; they still rushed forward one after another. Time passed bit by bit. You flew further and further away; soon, you could no longer see the situation in the Holy City. You could only see the silver waterfall in the distant void, but it was barely visible. In your eyes, the waterfall became a thin silver line! Gradually, even that thin silver line disappeared from your view. A monthter, you finally stopped. At this point, you could finally control your body! Without hesitation, you prepared to return to the Holy City to check the situation. If the silver waterfall poured down and Erbao and the others couldn''t stop it. The waterfall, carrying the power of time, would eventually flood the entire world. Even if you ran, what good would it do? At most, you could live by hiding for a while longer. You might as well see if you can help now. You remember you still have a talent called "Miracle." Perhaps this talent should be used at this moment! Just as you were about to head to the Holy City, a figure suddenly appeared in front of you. That person was wrapped entirely in a white robe! You couldn''t see his appearance at all. Instinctively, you used the Chaos Heavy Pupil. The result was all gibberish **** Seeing this, you were shocked! What¡¯s going on? Why did such a powerful figure suddenly appear? Who is he? Why is he stopping you? Instinctively, you wanted to run. The person easily caught you and then pointed a finger at your forehead. Instantly, the figure of the man in white merged into your body, and your consciousness faded away. You were controlled! After the man in white invaded your body, he looked up at the void. His gaze seemed to see someone! You saw his lips move slightly, as if he was saying something. In reality, Jiang Yifeng''s eyes were wide open like light bulbs at this moment. At this moment, he heard a voice in his ear. "Our opportunities are running out, keep pushing!" The man in white in the simtion was speaking to him. He heard it. But what exactly did this mean? Opportunities running out? What opportunities are running out? And what does "we" mean? Is this man in white on his side?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om But who is he? He doesn''t know him either? Or is this man in white actually himself? His future self? What on earth is going on? Can we stop with the riddles? Jiang Yifeng felt like he was going crazy. But just then, he heard another sentence in his ear. "Weaklings can''t keep secrets; even their thoughts can be easily known by others. If you want to know the details, reach the supreme level quickly!" Great, mocking hisck of strength. If that''s the case, then don''t say anything. Knowing half of it is really frustrating! --- Meanwhile, in an unknown ce, in the void! The ck-robed man looked towards the river of time; he seemed to see the man in white from the simtion. He smirked, muttering to himself. "Another backup n has appeared?" "I want to see how many backup ns you have." "Can you really keep stopping me?" Laughing, the ck-robed man seemed to fall into memories. ... Jiang Yifeng knew nothing of this. At this moment, his heart was full of questions, with no answers. In the end, he could only look at the simtor. **[The man in white seemed to mutter a few words to himself before stepping out and arriving at the Holy City!]** **[He looked at Erbao and the others who were blocking the silver waterfall.]** **[He shook his head slightly.]** **[Blocking it like this, how could it possibly work?]** **[So, he directly transmitted a message to Erbao.]** **[He told Erbao he had a way to solve the current crisis.]** **[He asked Erbao to bring back all the Divine Dao cultivators, as they would be neededter!]** **[Erbao hesitated after hearing this.]** **[But he still brought back the survivors.]** **[The man in white was now using your body.]** **[Erbao''s strength couldn''t detect anything unusual!]** **[In Erbao''s eyes, this man in white was you!]** **[He truly trusted not the man in white, but you.]** **[He believed you wouldn''t speak recklessly or aimlessly!]** **[Seeing Erbao and the others retreat, the man in white whispered a few words into Erbao''s ear.]** **[Soon, Erbao led all the cultivators away from the Holy City.]** Chapter 297: Miracle? Chapter 297: Miracle? [Time passes!] In the blink of an eye, three years have gone by. Without the defense of Erbao and others, the silver waterfall flows straight down. Over these three years, the water of time has continuously eroded this world, making the living environment increasingly smaller. One day, a man in white, with your appearance, appeared before Erbao again. He stared at Erbao and said, "There isn''t enough time to move the remaining people!" Upon hearing this, Erbao merely sighed and nodded. He knew time was running out; the spread of the water of time was elerating. Fortunately, over the years, he and Erbao, along with all the cultivators, had managed to transfer arge number of seeds!Yes, seeds! The n the man in white told him was to abandon the pawn to save the king, preserving most of the seeds. As for how to preserve them? The man in white didn''t say, and Erbao didn''t ask in detail. However, Erbao was quite curious; his Uncle Erman was only at the Ancient God realm of the starry sky. What method could he possibly have? Indeed, in Erbao''s eyes, the man in white was still you. Even though he couldn''t fathom what "you" could do. But he still believed unconditionally. There were many personal feelings involved. But more importantly, in his eyes, you were the creator of various Dao traditions. Someone who could create several Dao traditions was a legend, a miracle; even if your current strength seemedcking, your words still held credibility. The man in white didn''t continue to keep secrets. He looked towards a certain spot in the void and shouted, "It''s your turn to act!!" As the words of the man in white fell, this world, the area submerged by the water of time and the area not submerged, was separated by an invisible space! But that wasn''t all. Next, this world was directly split in two by that invisible space. Instantly, outside the rift in the split world, arge amount of the water of time poured in, followed by a vast void appearing! In an instant, the water of time and the endless power of the void intertwined. Seeing this, the man in white smiled slightly.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om It''s done! Now, as long as the power of the void and the water of time entangle, the world that hasn''t been submerged can still continue. But it''s not exactly safe now! To be precise, it''s like driving away a tiger to swallow a wolf. The world that was split, although temporarily free from the erosion of the water of time, now faced the crisis of being engulfed by the power of the void. Moreover, that old adversary, the one who controlled the void, could easily exploit this. But what could be done? This was a trap set by the opponent. The opponent''s n was an open conspiracy. After all, there weren''t many things that could counter the water of time. Even the one who was just invited to help could only temporarily block the water of time with their current strength. To save the world, it was necessary to split the world and use the power of the void to counter the water of time! I must say, this move was yed beautifully. The opponent only gave two options: immediate death or slow death? Unfortunately, while the opponent had Zhang Liang''s strategy, the man in white had adder over the wall! The current situation was still within expectations. This time, your talent, the miracle, was about toe into y! The man in white was just about to use your "one-time talent" when he suddenly stopped. He shook his head, sighed, and murmured, "Forget it, it''s your choice to make now!" After speaking, the man in white took a lingering look at this world and softly said, "Farewell!" Then his consciousnesspletely dissipated. Your consciousness finally took over your body. With the return of consciousness, you discovered that there was something more in your memory. Soon, you explored those additional memories. You gradually understood the n of the man in white. He left you with a choice. And that was whether to use the "miracle" or not! Although you were unsure of the current utility of the miracle. But ording to the information left by the man in white. If you use the miracle, you can protect the remaining world from copsing and also block the void for a long time. If you don''t use it, then the remaining world might soon be swallowed by the void. In addition, the man in white left an answer! That is, if you don''t save this world now and let it be destroyed, then reality will alsopletely disappear. Damn, this isn''t a choice! There''s no choice at all, right? You sighed and silently thought, "I am the miracle!" Instantly, your body began to disintegrate. You transformed into a wisp of miracle, evolving into endless chaos,pletely enveloping the remaining half of the world! Thoroughly isting the potential invading power of the void and the water of time! "This? This? This?..." Your consciousness gradually faded away amidst this terrifying change. You died! Simtion ended. This simtion can be exchanged for two rewards. Divine Spiritual Root (Talent), Cultivation! [Divine Spiritual Root (Talent)]: Price 1000 origin values. [Cultivation]: Price 10 million origin values. (Peak of the Ancient God realm of the starry sky;prehended a trace of the Great Dao of Fire, greatly enhancing manyws to the limit.) Jiang Yifeng looked at the words marking the end of the simtion. Silent for a long time. Using the "miracle" actually cost him his life! If he had known this, he should have waited a bit longer. Forget it, it''s all in the past! Regret is meaningless. He first looked at the rewards from this simtion. There were only two, no need to think about it. He took them both. [Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining the Divine Spiritual Root (Talent); 1000 origin values deducted, remaining origin values.] [Tip: Cultivation extracted sessfully; 10 million origin values deducted; remaining origin values.] After a long time, Jiang Yifengpleted the extraction of cultivation. He felt that his strength had improved significantly. This simtion seemed to involve little cultivation. But theprehension of that wisp of the Great Dao had already multiplied hisbat power. After iming the rewards. Jiang Yifeng began to organize the information obtained in the simtion. There was quite a bit of information in this simtion. For example, he originally thought Erbao had turned to the dark side to create the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao? But from the situation in this simtion, that wasn''t the case. Erbao hadn''t turned to the dark side. The current situation was that the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao were passed down by him. However, Jiang Yifeng knew that the original history wasn''t like this. Because the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao he obtained earlier had experimental records. Now that he passed it on to Erbao, there would be no need for further experiments. This could only mean that he had changed history. Chapter 298: Vent dissatisfaction? "Changed history?" Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng thought of the end of the simtion, where he used a "miracle" to evolve into endless chaos. This was actually a very important piece of information. In previous simtions, he had never noticed this detail. That is, a billion years ago, or even seven hundred million years ago, there seemed to be no mention of chaos. Even when breaking the "World Gate," it was said to have crossed a vast ocean to reach the world''s barrier. It seemed that in the simtor, during that time period, there was never any mention of chaos. Now it seemed that during that time, there was no endless chaos enveloping the world. Because that endless chaos was evolved from his miracle!At this moment, he didn''t need to verify anything else to confirm that the simtor indeed affected history. No, or rather, every cross-time simtion he conducted was an inevitability of history. It seemed all of this was destined! Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng''s lips curled into a smile. He murmured, "Is it really destined?" He opened his storage space. He found the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao he had confiscated from Shen Wutian. That''s right,st time when Jiang Yifeng went to the ancient relic to see the "Gate" and subdued Shen Wutian, he also confiscated the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao. He had already looked at it before, and it was the same as in the previous simtion; the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao bore Erbao''s signature! Now he wanted to confirm it once more. If an item that appeared inter generations was forcibly altered by him in its closed loop, what would happen? Would the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao lose its experimental process, and the signature change to "Jiang Erman," the name he used in the simtion? Or would it remain the same? He retrieved the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao from the storage ring. Looking at the yellowed bamboo slip, Jiang Yifeng took a deep breath. To be honest, he was quite looking forward to it! He directly turned to thest page of the bamboo slip to check the signature. "Written by Jiang Erbao!" No change? Then Jiang Yifeng turned to the beginning of the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao. He carefully began to examine it. No change, everything remained the same. The Dark Arts of the Divine Dao still contained Erbao''s experimental records of creating it. Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng suddenlyughed. A loophole had appeared in the time loop! Although he didn''t know whether this loophole was good or bad. But no matter what, it was caused by his subjective consciousness. It meant that at that moment, he was in control of his own destiny; it wasn''t all prearranged! At least this much could be seen. Even if he was a pawn, he still had a certain degree of freedom. That was enough. Another thing was, he confirmed that the man in white had deceived him. Saying that if he didn''t save the world in the simtion, reality would disappear? But from this Dark Arts of the Divine Dao, it was clear! It wouldn''t! Even if it had changed in the past, it wouldn''t directly affect the present. This was indeed unreasonable. Why did the past change, but reality didn''t? Jiang Yifeng couldn''t understand either. But the fact was as it was. Perhaps when he became stronger and understood more, he wouldprehend the reason! Although he knew the man in white had deceived him. Jiang Yifeng didn''t feel that the man in white was his enemy! From the other''s actions to save the world, he must be on his side. But why did the other deceive him? Was it because he didn''t trust him? Or was there another n? "Hmm..." Perhaps! Jiang Yifeng shook his head. Forget it, he was toozy to think about it. He would understand in the future. Jiang Yifeng didn''t dwell on the matters in the simtion anymore. He stretchedzily, preparing to take a nap. Just then, he suddenly sensed an extremely strong aura erupting in the Jiang Family Mansion. It instantly dispelled his drowsiness. He released his divine sense and quickly locked onto the location of the aura. That was? Little Peach''s room? In an instant, Jiang Yifeng appeared in Little Peach''s room. He stared at Little Peach in front of him, frowning slightly. Saint Realm? He understood. Little Peach had been "possessed" in reality? He should have thought of it earlier. Since Little Peach''s "past life" could cross time to enter the simtion, she could definitelye directly to reality. For a moment, Jiang Yifeng felt a bit delighted. Was she here to deliver some message directly? Soon, the aura on Little Peach stabilized. She looked at Jiang Yifeng for a long time. A tear fell. "Young Master, Peach misses you!" ...n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om Jiang Yifeng was stunned upon hearing this. To be honest, his feelings for Little Peach were much deeper than for Peach. After all, Peach was just a passerby in his simtion, and even in that simtion, he only saw text descriptions. How was he supposed to respond? If he said, "I miss you too," would it seem insincere? Seeing Jiang Yifeng''s awkwardness, "Peach" suddenly burst intoughter. "Young Master, don''t worry, Peach understands!" Jiang Yifeng awkwardly chuckled twice. As long as she understood, as long as she understood. After a brief awkwardness, the two fell into a long silence. Finally, Jiang Yifeng broke the silence first. He chose to ask proactively. "Peach, can you tell me, what''s really going on?" "Who am I? Who wants to use me or go against me?" ... Peach just shook her head upon hearing this. "Young Master, I can''t say!" "You already have a n, and you''ll understand everything eventually!" "Poof..." Suddenly, "Peach" spat out a mouthful of blood! She looked at Jiang Yifeng with longing. "Young Master, time''s up; goodbye!" ¡ª Meanwhile, in an unknown space, in a void filled with demonic beasts. A woman, covered in blood, had half of her body gnawed away by the void beasts! Gradually, she lost her breath. After a long, long time. The woman''s figure appeared again in this space. She lookedpletely unharmed. Then, another long battle ensued. The woman spent her time in constant death and rebirth. ... Jiang Family Mansion. Jiang Yifeng held Little Peach, continuously healing her injuries. However, his mind drifted elsewhere. What was Peach''s purpose in descending onto Little Peach? She didn''t convey any useful information. And then she just spat blood and left? No, that''s not right! There was information. Peach said he already had a n? Was she referring to his past life? But that can''t be right. His acquaintance with Peach was in the simtion. It was him. Where did the past lifee from? So, when Peach said he already had a n, she wasn''t referring to a past life. She was referring to his current self. But what was his n? Why didn''t he know? ... "Is it my future self again?" "Heh, how interesting!" Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but let out a coldugh. Enemies, and even his future self, all liked to scheme, huh! Bullying him forck of information? Thinking he couldn''t see through it? Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng looked into the endless void and burst intoughter. "You''re all using me as a pawn, huh? Bullying a meek person, huh!" "Don''t push me too far; if you do, I''ll just end it all and flip the board on you." He didn''t know if his future self or the ck-robed man, possibly one of the yers, could hear him. It seemed like he was just venting his dissatisfaction. Hmm? It seemed that way? But for someone as cautious as him to suddenly act so recklessly, was that really normal? What kind of scheme he was plotting, perhaps only Jiang Yifeng himself knew! Chapter 299: A thoughtful simulator, whatever is missing will come! Jiang Yifeng''s sudden outburst might have scared those plotting against him, but it was still unclear. However, Little Peach, who was being treated by him, was indeed startled. "Y-Young Master? What''s wrong with you?" Seeing Little Peach''s suspicious look, Jiang Yifeng forced a smile and shook his head, "Uh, nothing!" He then continued, "Little Peach, take good care of your injuries. I have some matters to attend to, so I''ll be leaving now!" Anyway, Little Peach''s injuries weren''t severe, and after treatment, she was mostly fine. Jiang Yifeng quickly made his escape! He had overacted a bit, which was quite embarrassing. In the days that followed, Jiang Yifeng seemed to return to his old self before acquiring the simtor.He spent his days either sleeping or listening to music at the pleasure house. Previously, he had nned to educate the Immortal Realm after the simtion ended. But now, it seemed he had forgotten all about it! Jiang Yifeng had truly decided to do nothing! After all, whatever he thought of now couldn''t be hidden from those plotting against him; so he might as well think of nothing and just wait for the simtion. Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, two and a half months had gone by. By this time, the simtor had umted ten uses. Once again, it had reached its limit. It wasn''t until this day that Jiang Yifeng returned to his room. Looking at the simtor before him, he silently thought to himself. "Start the cross-time simtion, just pick a timeline where I can live a bit longer!" This time, he didn''t even bother to choose a timeline. After all, his goal was simple: find any timeline and then quietly cultivate. Not caring about anything or anyone. He had even considered not doing cross-time simtions anymore, just ordinary simtions. But with ordinary simtions, the world would be destroyed in just a thousand years. If that happened, those plotting against him wouldn''t have an easy time. But thinking about it, there was no need for that! That approach would harm the enemy by eight hundred but damage himself by ten thousand; it wasn''t worth it! Without strength, he would always be at the mercy of others. The most important thing now was to improve his strength, even if he had to endure being used as a pawn. The simtor heard Jiang Yifeng''s request. It seemed to pause for a few seconds, as if stuck, before its electronic voice slowly sounded. [Ding, starting cross-time simtion, consuming 3 simtion uses, 7 uses remaining.] [Scanning timelines...] [Locking onto a simtable timeline; six hundred million years ago!] [Note: The host can choose between two cross-time simtion modes.] [1: Randomly select a target, and the host''s soul descends.] [2: Create a fictional physical body, and the host''s soul descends with full strength!] Looking at the prompt before him, Jiang Yifeng hesitated for a moment and directly chose the first option. "I choose to randomly select a target!" In this simtion, his goal was to quietly cultivate and avoid contact with anyone. He had tried the second option in thest simtion. Although the Dao didn''t seem to deliberately target himst time, being discovered was still a fact. It wasn''t suitable forying low! So the first option was more appropriate! After making his choice, the simtor''s voice sounded again. [Ding, would you like to spend 1000 origin values to draw a talent?] "Yes!" [Talent drawing in progress, 1000 origin values deducted, obtained red talent: Heart Lock!] [Heart Lock]: There is a lock in your heart that can seal your true thoughts; once this talent is used, no one can see through your inner thoughts, including this simtor! (Note: A lock requires a key. If the key is controlled by someone else, your locked thoughts may be exposed. If the key is destroyed, the lock can never be opened.) "Damn!" Seeing this talent, Jiang Yifeng''s eyes widened. It was exactly what he needed! He had just been thinking about doing nothing because people could see through him. Now he had a talent that could prevent others from seeing through him. Although this talent had limitations, it was still top-notch! But what did thatst sentence mean, "including this simtor"? The simtor couldn''t see through him either? Is that possible? Would the simtor create a talent to limit itself? Forget it, no need to worry about it! Let''s continue. [Ding, obtained one-time talent: Old Six!] [Old Six]: Passive skill; when you don''t want to be exposed, it''s hard for ordinary people to notice; the same applies when you do bad things! (Note: A qualified Old Six never actively does bad things!) Seeing this talent, Jiang Yifeng nodded in satisfaction. "Not bad, not bad, this talent is perfect forying low!" [Talent pool: Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root, Absolute Rationality, Cmity Tribtion Body, Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root.] [Would you like to bring one of these into the simtion?] "No!" [The 35th simtion begins!] [You appear in a mountainous wilderness.] [You rub your head, and a flood of memories rushes in.] [Soon, you understand the identity of the original host.] [The original host''s name is Jiang Ming; a Divine Dao cultivator; currently at the Tribtion Crossing Realm!] [He is a named disciple of the first-rate sect, Ancient God Sect!] [Tribtion Crossing Realm and just a named disciple?] [This makes you frown slightly.] [You continue to browse the original host''s memories.] [Soon, you understand the truth behind it.] [ording to the original host''s memories, the Ancient God Sect is an orthodox Divine Dao sect; to officially be a disciple of the Ancient God Sect, one must fully enter the Divine Dao and reach the One-Star Ancient God realm!]N?v(el)B\\jnn [You have to admit, this Ancient God Sect has quite the prestige!] [Previously, during a cross-time simtion, you encountered the Ancient God Sect.] [But that timeline was different from now; based onparison, it should be three hundred million years after the current timeline.] [That Ancient God Sect was quite downfallen.] [Although it imed to be an ancient Divine Dao sect, not a single person practiced the Divine Dao.] [Even the sect''s disciples thought the sect''s ims were deceptive.] [Does this Ancient God Sect have any connection with the one you encountered in your previous simtion?] [Ultimately, you shake your head!] [Who cares; it''s not important!] [This time, you''reying low, those secrets have nothing to do with you!] [You continue to examine the original host''s memories.] [Soon after, you understand why the original host was in the wilderness.] [It was because he was attacked by a demonic beast while visiting his family!] [This instantly makes you vignt.] [Currently, your strength hasn''t recovered, and you only have the same strength as the original host.] [You can''t afford to be careless.] [So, you immediately activate the Mortal Domain!] [Instantly, your original Tribtion Crossing Realm cultivation disappearspletely, turning you into a mortal.] [This talent, you haven''t used it in a long time.] [Now that your strength hasn''t recovered, it''s perfect for emergencies.] [If a demonic beast tries to attack you, as long as it''s not at the Great Principal Golden Immortal level, it will also be reduced to a mortal state!] [In the same mortal state, your safety is much higher.] [After doing all this,] [You don''t hesitate and follow the route in the original host''s memory, heading towards the Ancient God Sect.] [Although you came to this simtion to cultivate andy low,] [You don''t reject interacting with people.] [After all, the cultivation environment is quite important.] [Since this Ancient God Sect is currently a first-rate sect, the sect''s location must be quite suitable for cultivation!] [Plus, with your current cultivation not recovered, having the protection of a first-rate sect is much safer!] Chapter 300: You are Old Six! Half a dayter, you see a giant python hundreds of meters long. You use the Chaos Heavy Pupil to check its realm. This python has the cultivation level of a Golden Immortal. Without your restored cultivation, at the Tribtion Crossing Realm, you definitely can''t defeat it. As for the Mortal Domain? Heh, just its size alone, even if they were all mortals, it could crush you to death! Better not provoke it, better not provoke it! You carefully avoid the area where the giant python is, constantly chanting in your heart, "Can''t see me, can''t see me!" Sure enough, the giant python doesn''t notice you!Of course, it''s not your prayers that worked; it''s the talent "Old Six" that makes your presence extremely low. Time flies by, and half a month passes in the blink of an eye. During this half month, you encounter many ferocious demonic beasts and even evil cultivators. You don''t provoke them, and they subconsciously ignore you. At this moment, you finally arrive at the Ancient God Sect. Following the original host''s memories, you return to a small peak named Qingfeng Mountain. You look at the pavilion on the mountaintop and then nce at the surrounding vegetation. You nod in satisfaction. Although the ce isn''t big, it''s quite picturesque. For a named disciple to have such a residence is not bad. Of course, you also know this is rted to the uniqueness of the Ancient God Sect. After all, the original host was at the Tribtion Crossing Realm; from your previous perspective, it might seem weak. But for many people, that''s still a strong cultivator. Thinking this way, it''s not surprising the original host had such a residence. After all, with the cultivation of the Tribtion Crossing Realm, one could be an elder in some minor sects. Probably only a traditional Divine Dao sect like the Ancient God Sect would have someone at the Tribtion Crossing Realm as a named disciple! In the days that follow, you stay peacefully on Qingfeng Mountain alone. For the first few days, you keep pondering how to use the Heart Lock? When to use it? After thinking for a long time, you feel this talent isn''t suitable for use in the simtion! In the simtion, you can''t seal your real inner thoughts. You think it should be used in reality. That way, it would be once and for all! After figuring it out, you no longer pay attention to this talent. In the days that follow, besides cultivating, you asionally nt some flowers and grass! Life is quite pleasant! Time flows like water, and ten years pass in the blink of an eye. By now, you''ve already recovered to the Five-star Ancient God realm. This speed isn''t fast, but it''s definitely not slow! One day, while you''re cultivating, a steward from the Ancient God Sectes to find you. He looks at you, frowning slightly; his expression carries a hint of disdain. "The Steward Department announces; Jiang Ming, you have three more years." "After three years, if you still can''t break through to the Ancient God realm, then get out of the Ancient God Sect!" After saying this, the steward turns and leaves. He''s just here to deliver a message. But halfway through, he seems to notice something. His eyes light up as he walks towards your ntation. He didn''t expect to find quite a few precious herbs here. Without even looking at you, he takes all the flowers and nts you''ve painstakingly grown. Although those spirit flowers and herbs are of no use to you, The steward doesn''t even say a word to you before taking them, and a trace of killing intent emerges in your heart. The steward seems to sense your gaze; he turns back and sneers at you, "What? Unwilling to pay respects to senior brother?" Whether in reality or simtion, you haven''t really encountered such snobbish behavior! Unexpectedly, today you really encountered it. So, you smile even more happily. You wave your hand repeatedly and say, "No, no, senior brother, it''s my honor that you fancy the herbs I grow, feel free!" But in your heart, you''re thinking: Why bother with a dead man? The steward doesn''t know what you''re thinking; he is very satisfied with your response. This is the attitude a named disciple should have. For a steward at the Six-star Ancient God realm to take some benefits from you, it''s only right! You see the steward''s arrogant attitude and just keep smiling without saying more. After a long while, the steward leaves, satisfied. Time passes, and seven days go by in the blink of an eye. On this day, you return to Qingfeng Mountain once again. The flowers and nts in Qingfeng Mountain''s ntation have grown lush again. But they seem a bit more crimson than before. And on this day, a steward from the Ancient God Sect who went out on businesspletely disappears. No one knows where he went. In the days that follow, your life returns to peace. Three years pass in the blink of an eye. One day, you leave Qingfeng Mountain and head to the Steward Hall of the Ancient God Sect! The Steward Hall is the ce that manages the sect''s daily affairs and assessments. Named disciples of the Ancient God Sect who want to be official disciples mustplete the assessment at the Steward Hall. The assessment is simple, just to confirm if you''ve truly reached the Ancient God realm. Without any surprises, you easily pass the assessment and be an official disciple of the Ancient God Sect. As an official disciple of the Ancient God Sect, you can choose a new residence. You spend half a day selecting, but find thatpared to your original ce, aside from being bigger, it doesn''t make much difference for your cultivation! Since that''s the case, you forgo this benefit. Besides that, there are some special rewards. Such as cultivation techniques, battle techniques; and somemonly used cultivation resources like spirit stones, spirit liquid, and divine stones! You don''t refuse these things, although they can''t speed up your cultivation much, they can still be used. If nothing else, they can be used as currency. Who wouldin about having too much money? Originally, you thought that was it! After that, you could just leisurely pass your days. However, after you collect your benefits, you receive a piece of news. That is, every fifty years, all official disciples of the Ancient God Sect must undertake a secret mission. As for what the mission is, the people from the Steward Department didn''t say. However, you don''t pay too much attention to it. Since it''s a group mission, it shouldn''t be dangerous. Just consider it a diversion from cultivation.N?v(el)B\\jnn After all, it only happens once every fifty years. After that, you return to Qingfeng Mountain to go into seclusion again. This time, you go into seclusion for fifty years. Your cultivation finally fully recovers. Aftering out of seclusion, you realize the time for the group mission mentioned by the Steward Department has arrived. You hesitate for a moment and decide to go take a look. But when you arrive at the gathering ce the Steward Department mentioned before, you don''t find anyone? What''s going on? You don''t realize that your one-time talent has taken effect! You''re "Old Six"; how could you possibly go on an adventure? All those disciples and the leading elders subconsciously ignored you, and they''ve already set off for the secret mission location!

Chapter 303: I was fooled by the Simtionst time! Seeing Er Bao''s figure, you weren''t surprised. After entering the Dao, you''ve encountered countless figures along the way; all of them are people who haveprehended the Great Dao of Fire. Now, the only difference is that you''ve reached the end of the Great Dao of Fire. At this moment, youpletely understand the Supreme God''s intention. The Dao is a solitary journey! To achieve supremacy, you must defeat all those who walk the same path. Now, you have only two choices: either give up on achieving supremacy through the Great Dao of Fire, or engage in a Dao battle with Er Bao! What will you choose? Well, it seems you don''t need to choose.The shadow of Er Bao at the end of the Dao is charging towards you. Just as you were about to exit the state of entering the Dao, you shook your head slightly. At the moment the shadow approached, youpletely gave up the opportunity to enter the Dao this time. Is it because you don''t want power? Of course not! It''s because you don''t need power gifted by others. From the shadow of Er Bao in the Dao, you saw no fighting spirit. He wasn''t trying to initiate a Dao battle; he was trying to send you to supremacy! If it were before, you might have refused Er Bao''s goodwill, but you would have been conflicted and hesitant. But even if you refused, it would only be because you didn''t want Er Bao to suffer any loss! But now, you are different. You have been baptized by the passage of a billion years! Regarding the Dao, you have a deeper understanding in your heart. Before stepping onto the path of cultivation, you thought there were strong and weak Daos; the strongest Dao was always stronger than ordinary Daos. After stepping onto the path of cultivation, especially after mastering manyws and initially touching upon the Dao, you began to think that all Daos lead to the same destination; there is no distinction between strong and weak. The only weak ones are people, not the Dao! But now, your thoughts have changed once again. The Dao does have strong and weak aspects. Not only that, but they also restrain each other. Mutual restraint is easy to understand. For example, the Great Dao of Water, with the same strength as the Great Dao of Fire, can never be defeated by the same strength of the Great Dao of Fire; this is restraint! As for strength and weakness, it''s hard to exin in detail; it''s just a feeling you have. Just like people, who are born with differences in wealth and status! Even though most people don''t admit it, that''s the reality. Although a few people can change their fate through their efforts and talents. But if they were born better, with the same effort and talent, they would stand higher! The inherent strength and weakness of people have always existed. The Dao is the same! Realizing this, you don''t want to break through to the Supreme God using the Great Dao of Fire. You want toprehend a stronger Dao. As early as tens of millions of years ago, you had already stopped focusing on the Great Dao of Fire. You have been traveling the world, experiencing the various facets of life, hoping toprehend the Great Dao of Time through this. But things didn''t go as nned; in the end, it was still the Great Dao of Fire that reached perfection first, and you entered the Dao. This entry into the Dao with the Great Dao of Fire can be said to be purely coincidental! In such circumstances, you naturally wouldn''t want to engage in a Dao battle with Er Bao. Winning might bring you short-term benefits! But in the long run, it might not be a good thing. After all, the chaotic energy within you can only fuse with a limited number of Daos. After exiting the state of entering the Dao, you ponder for a moment and then set off on your journey again. Meanwhile, somewhere outside the chaos, Er Bao slowly opens his eyes. He just sensed that the shadow he left in the Great Dao of Fire moved. Something''s not right, something''s not right! With that thought, Er Bao disappears in an instant; he enters the Great Dao of Fire personally. He wants to see what happened! Soon, he arrives at the end of the Great Dao of Fire. Throughmunicating with his own shadow at the end of the Dao, Er Bao quickly understands everything. But at this moment, his brows furrow even deeper. Wrong, wrong! It''s all wrong. Now is not the time for him to gift the Great Dao of Fire! ording to his agreement with certain people, you shouldn''t appear in the Great Dao of Fire at this time. In reality, Jiang Yifeng frowns slightly. "This segment of the simtion has a lot of information." "The notion that the Dao has distinctions of strength and weakness?" He hasn''t experienced it personally. He doesn''t know if the feeling he had in the simtion is urate. After all, he hasn''t had as much time as in the simtion toprehend all this. "This point, let''s leave it in doubt for now!" Of course, Jiang Yifeng is inclined to believe this notion. After all, it is reasonable and well-founded, and it was analyzed by his simted self.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om Apart from this, he didn''t expect Er Bao to have a role. And quite a significant one at that. "Who exactly did Er Bao have an agreement with?" "Why does he want to gift the Great Dao of Fire to me?" "Mystery, such a mystery!" "Who is orchestrating all this?" "When did Er Bao make that agreement with the other person?" "Was it after yourst simtion ended? Or before?" With the information obtained now, and thinking from different angles, Jiang Yifeng feels it might have been before thest simtion ended. In thest simtion, he was deceived by Er Bao. "At that time, Er Bao was already the Supreme God; so he must have known about the solitary journey of the Dao." "But at that time, Er Bao didn''t mention it at all." "He even actively let the Great Dao of Fire help me cultivate." "Isn''t this just leading me into his Dao, to facilitate theter act of yielding the Dao?" But Jiang Yifeng can''t quite understand why Er Bao would do this. Doing so doesn''t benefit Er Bao at all. In fact, it might even cause a significant drop in his power. If Er Bao doesn''t have a secondplete Dao, he might even fall to the Ancient God realm of chaos. Jiang Yifeng feels there must be other hidden truths in this. "Er Bao sacrificed so much and cooperated with the other party; there must be a reason." "Who could make Er Bao cooperate like this?" It''s not hard to guess. Currently, the only orchestrator Jiang Yifeng knows is "his future self"; or is it the ck-robed man? Considering the closeness of rtionships. Jiang Yifeng can immediately determine that this is another scheme by "his future self." "But is this ''future self'' really doing this for my own good?" "If the calctions in the simtion are urate." "Does the Dao really have distinctions of strength and weakness?" "Then making meprehend an ordinary Great Dao of Fire, lowering my ceiling?" "Isn''t that harming me?" For a moment, Jiang Yifeng feels a bit overwhelmed. He feels it shouldn''t be like this. Based on his understanding of himself, even in the future, he wouldn''t deliberately harm his current self. Unless that self is no longer himself! Perhaps his guesses have been wrong all along. There is no future self? But someone is deliberately misleading? Complicated, tooplicated. Chapter 304: Three hundred million years later, two yous are about to meet Chapter 304: Three hundred million yearster, two ''yous'' are about to meet Jiang Yifeng shook his head, temporarily giving up on pondering this issue. He turned his attention to what Er Bao had mentioned about the timing being off. The simtor, ording to the agreement between Er Bao and the person behind the scenes, wasn''t supposed to yield the Great Dao of Fire at this point in the simtion. Moreover, Jiang Yifeng recalled that this simtion mentioned "idental enlightenment"! "I had already given up on the Great Dao of Fire, not deliberately trying toprehend it, so how could I identally achieve enlightenment?" Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng suddenly smiled. "Heh, interesting, more and more interesting!" "It seems this is another game of strategy." "Someone arranged for Er Bao to yield the Great Dao of Fire to me at a certain time; did another person know about this arrangement?""So they used some method? Letting the simted version of me step into the Great Dao of Fire ahead of time?" "I just wonder if the person who lured me into enlightenment anticipated that I would give up on the Great Dao of Fire?" With this thought, Jiang Yifeng understood a few things. "The Great Dao of Fire might not be the main point." "The key lies in the timing of Er Bao yielding the Dao." After summarizing the information, Jiang Yifeng didn''t dwell on it further; he didn''t think about how to break the situation. There was no need! All the information had already proven that he currentlycked the ability to break the situation. Just remembering the information was enough. The method to break the situation could be consideredter. At this moment, Jiang Yifeng actually had an idea. That was to start a deep simtion, directly simting over a hundred million years. That way, he should be able to gain many insights that he couldn''t experience otherwise. These insights might be different from the direct infusion by the simtor. Unfortunately, a deep simtion of over a hundred million years was too expensive. "One day of deep simtion costs 24 origin values, a year requires 8,760 points; a hundred million years would be 8,760 multiplied by a hundred million; how many zeros would that be?" "Can''t afford it, can''t afford it!" Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng felt that he should prioritize the matter of seeking alms in the Immortal Realm. See if there might be an opportunity in the future to conduct a long-term deep simtion. As for reality? "Let it be, let it be!" So, Jiang Yifengy back on the bed and continued to look at the simtor. [You are unaware of Er Bao''s actions.] [After leaving the state of enlightenment, you resumed your carefree life.] [You watched the passage of time, seeing those you once spent time with pass away one by one!] [Yet you remain youthful.] [In the blink of an eye, tens of millions of years have passed.] [One day, looking at your still youthful appearance, a thought suddenly urred to you.] ["Time? Does it really exist?"] [In your past life on Blue Star, before you embarked on the path of cultivation, time was said not to exist, merely a unit of measurement created by people.] [But after stepping into cultivation, the Law of Time indeed exists.] [You hadn''t considered this question before, but now, seeing yourself still looking like a twenty-year-old, you couldn''t help but question.] ["Does time really exist?"] [For a moment, you fell into enlightenment.] [In your mind, countless figures appeared; they were all the people you''ve encountered over the years.] [After a long, long time.] [You softly uttered, "Time does exist!"] [Although "time" hasn''t left the marks of years on you, it has passed in your memory.] [In those years before, you witnessed the birth and departure of countless lives.] [These fleeting passersby in your memory are the best proof of "time''s" existence.] [Of course, time is merely a definition given by people; it could be called by other names.] [But it truly exists.] [As long as there are people; no, as long as there is life in the world, then time inevitably exists.] [In an instant, you made rapid progress on the path of the Great Dao of Time!] [This idental enlightenment almost allowed you toprehend half of the truth of time.] [For a moment, you thought of the "Random Enlightenment talent" you possess.] [Truly, withoutparison, there is no harm.] [Talent is indeed just talent.] [Like that Random Enlightenment, and Inevitable Enlightenment?] [You''ve used them countless times.] [Although each time they have some effect, much stronger than ordinary cultivation.] [Butpared to the effect of this self-driven enlightenment, it''s far inferior.] [You sighed, "On the path of cultivation; one must rely on oneself!"]N?v(el)B\\jnn In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this. He understood. This was directed at him. "Rest assured, rest assured, once this simtion ends, I''ll go to the Immortal Realm to seek alms!" "Next time, I''ll definitely strive to strengthen myself." Jiang Yifeng muttered a couple of sentences, seemingly responding to his simted self. Then he continued to look at the simtor. [You felt the power after enlightenment, the control over the power of time.] [Even though you''re only in the Ancient God realm of chaos, you feel you already have the ability to briefly break the barrier of time and travel through it.] [Of course, you don''t dare to do so.] [Because time travel requires not only breaking the barrier of time but also mastering the power of space and oveing the rejection of various other Daos.] [You even have to withstand the various causalities resulting from time travel.] [If you really attempted to travel through time now; you might be crushed instantly.] [Besides, due to your deeper understanding of the Great Dao of Time; you can vaguely see the river of time spanning above you.] [Though unclear, you indeed caught a glimpse.] [You saw that the river of time seemed to have a fork.] [A tiny fissure was flowing towards this world.] [In the middle, it seemed to be blocked by some force.] [You knew, this might be the silver waterfall from thest simtion.] [It was indeed a leak from the river of time.] [As for the force blocking the flow of the river of time, it must be the power of the void.] [After observing the indistinct river of time for just a moment; you felt your mental energy depletepletely.] [You quickly withdrew your gaze.] [Sighing lightly, "Still too weak!"] [However, you weren''t discouraged.] [No matter what, your progress is still tremendous.] [You can feel that your path in the Great Dao of Time is very close to the end.] [Once, someday, you can break through to the Supreme God with the Great Dao of Time; you believe your power will undergo a significant change!] [In the days that followed, you continued to alternate between traveling and cultivating.] [Unknowingly, this simtion has alreadysted for a full three hundred million years!] [Time hase to three hundred million years ago in reality.] [This time period is somewhat sensitive to you.] [After all, you''ve previously crossed time and space to this period; there was also a Death Substitute Doll; and once a soul possession; all urred in this time period.] [ording to previous spection, these time periods were close but did not intersect; they didn''t result in two "yous" existing in the same time period.] [However, this simtion seems to be about to change that.] Chapter 305: Netherworld Immortal Phoenix? [You''re quite curious about what would happen if two "yous" met in the same timeline.] [You roughly calcted the timeline; previously, you crossed time to this period; the earliest point should be the soul possession incident!] [You remember that time you descended on the True Spirit Continent and possessed a menial disciple of the Xuande Sect named Jiang Wucai!] [Thinking of this, you suddenly have the urge to visit the Xuande Sect on the True Spirit Continent.] [One day, you silently arrived at the True Spirit Continent and reached the Xuande Sect!] [After arriving here, you didn''t find anyone named Jiang Wucai in the Xuande Sect.] [You estimated that the time might not havee yet, so you decided to stay at the Xuande Sect for a while.] [From then on, the Xuande Sect had one more disciple, but no one noticed.] [Decades passed in the blink of an eye.][The Xuande Sect held another disciple recruitment ceremony.] [You hid in the shadows, observing secretly.] [Among the new disciplesing to apprentice, you finally saw the figure you were waiting for.] [Jiang Wucai, the poor soul who would be possessed by the previous "you," appeared.] [You carefully scrutinized Jiang Wucai.] [You were a bit curious, why did that simtion choose to possess him?] [Was it really by chance? Or did Jiang Wucai have something special about him?] [You used the Chaos Heavy Pupil on him!] [Jiang Wucai, Five Elements Mixed Spiritual Root (mutating towards Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root); Cmity Star (often brings cmity).] [Summary: He might trigger a world disaster!] [After reading Jiang Wucai''s personal information, you fell silent.] [You seemed to understand why that simtion, "you," would possess Jiang Wucai.] [He himself is a Cmity Star!] [It seemed quite normal for the "you" with the Cmity Physique in that simtion to be drawn to him.] [While you were lost in thought, Jiang Wucai hadpleted the sect entry test.] [He was detected by an elder to have a Five Elements Mixed Spiritual Root and became a menial disciple of the Xuande Sect.] [Seeing this, you suddenly thought of a question.] [In that previous simtion, because "you" under Jiang Wucai''s identity suddenly rose to prominence, it led to a re-evaluation of talent!] [In the end, the elder who initially tested Jiang Wucai was confined for eight hundred years!] [At the time, you thought he was quite wronged!] [Now it seems, perhaps not so unjust; he indeed made a mistake due to insufficient ability.] [You just used the Chaos Heavy Pupil to see that Jiang Wucai''s talent wasn''t a Five Elements Mixed Spiritual Root, but a root mutating towards the Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root.] ????N£Ï??§§?? [You couldn''t help but chuckle softly, "Ha, indeed, there''s always a cause for every effect!"] [Time passed.] [In the days that followed, you continued to observe Jiang Wucai.] [One day, you discovered Jiang Wucai brought back a group of spiritual chickens.] [Among them, one ck spiritual chicken was the most conspicuous.] [Jiang Wucai didn''t seem to care about it.] [But you instantly thought of Little ck.] [The ck Phoenix that followed "you" in that simtion to possess was this ck spiritual chicken, right?] ["Could it be that it, like Jiang Wucai, has something special about it?"] [This thought involuntarily arose in your mind.] [ck Spiritual Chicken: Netherworld Undying Phoenix (severely damaged); its soul seems to be lost!] [Summary: A plucked phoenix is worse than a chicken; if it can''t find its soul, its future will be worse than an ordinary spiritual chicken! (After all, it''s uglier!)] [After reading the information, you couldn''t help butugh out loud.] ["Ha, haha... truly extraordinary origins!"] [For a moment, a flood of thoughts surged in your mind.] [Could it be that the ck Phoenix in that simtion crossed over with you because it was the lost soul of the Netherworld Undying Phoenix?] [Or perhaps the lost soul of the Netherworld Undying Phoenix had always been with the simtor?] [In that simtion, under the guise of joint possession, the soul was returned to it?] [These are all possible.] [At this moment, the paradox of Little ck seemed to form a perfect loop.] [It wasn''t purely following you from the future.] [Its true form was that ck spiritual chicken; it originally belonged to this timeline.] [It was just that someone, or perhaps the simtor, had stripped its soul away!] [The soul''s return might just be a return to its rightful path.] [Besides this, you were also pondering that what you previously thought was your cross-time simtion altering history might also be wrong!] [Perhaps the oue of history was already predetermined, and your appearance only changed a few individuals, recing the destinies of a few.] [Like Jiang Wucai!] [He himself is a Cmity Star with extraordinary talent.] [If "you" hadn''t appeared in that simtion and possessed him, would he have risen on his own?] [Would he have eventually caused a world cmity?] [The more you thought about it, the more likely it seemed.] [It seems the simtor''s cross-time simtions aren''t as random as it ims!] In reality, Jiang Yifeng, seeing this, also focused intently. He was deep in thought. "Since the simtor''s cross-time simtions aren''t entirely random." "Then in that ten billion year cross-time simtion, was the original Jiang Erman truly going to create the Divine Dao, Immortal Dao, and Martial Dao?" "Was I merely recing him?" "And in many previous cross-time simtions." "Were the original hosts I reced destined to do the things I did in the simtions?" "Were all the cross-time simtions conducted under the simtor''s intentional control, without affecting the general direction of history?" "Have I never truly changed history, only reced those originally meant to alter its course?" After a long, long time. Jiang Yifeng murmured. "No, that''s not right!" He denied his earlier assumptions. Perhaps possessing Jiang Wucai was the simtor''s intention. But not all cross-time simtions could be like this. The difficulty would be too great. It would require the simtor not only to urately predict his actions in the simtion.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om But also to match them with someone in history with a simr course of action. Of course, that''s not the hardest part. The hardest part is, there''s also a ck-robed man, someone suspected to be ''his future self,'' plotting. With these two unstable factors causing chaos. It''s important to note, in previous simtions, the simtor was afraid of him meeting the ck-robed man! While this doesn''t prove the simtor fears the ck-robed man. At least it proves the ck-robed man can influence the simtor. The simtor can''t achieve absolute invincibility. So, it can''t control the actions of the ck-robed man. With those two troublemakers in the mix, the simtor couldn''t possibly make him perfectly align with someone in history! In the end, Jiang Yifeng shook his head. He uttered two words, "Destiny!" Chapter 306: Cause and effect of oneself! He felt that whether it was the ns of those strategists or his own cross-time simtion, everything seemed to be within the flow of fate. Many things that were clearly unrted and unreasonable could strangely form a closed loop. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng frowned again. He could imagine that the schemes of the ck-robed man or his "future self" were all under the trajectory of fate! Those two had more knowledge, greater strength, and such significant nning abilities; could they not foresee this? At this point, Jiang Yifeng quickly stopped his train of thought. He remembered that even what he thought in his heart might not be safe. Thinking this far was enough. He couldn''t think any further.Thinking more might increase the difficulty of breaking the situation in the future. So, he continued to look at the simtor. [After a brief contemtion, you feel that your current strength is insufficient, and it''s not the time to delve deeper; so you don''t think further.] [No matter what, you''ve discovered enough this time!] [Write these down and think about them in the future.] [In the following days, you remain in the Xuande Sect, keeping an eye on Jiang Wucai; waiting for "you" to arrive.] [Time passes day by day, and in the blink of an eye, three years have gone by.] [One day, you suddenly have a hunch!] [You instinctively look into the void, at the faintly visible river of time.] [You seem to see a goldfishing from the downstream of the river of time.] [The goldfish appears as if it is blind, darting left and right; constantly swimming erratically in the river of time.] [Suddenly, it seems to have found its target.] [It leaps out of the river of time and then disappears.] [At the same time, you see Jiang Wucai in the distance suddenly copse to the ground, unconscious.] [Simrly, the ck spirit chicken in the Spirit Chicken Garden also copses.] [Seeing this, you murmur, "Finally, it''s here!"] [You know that the previous "you" has arrived.] [But, what''s with that golden glow of karmic power on him?] [Just as this thought arises in your mind.] [You notice that therge mass of karmic power on the now-copsed "Jiang Wucai" transforms into several strands and flies in all directions.] [Thergest strand of karmic line heads straight towards you.] [You try to dodge, but it''s useless.] [The karmic line binds you directly.] [You look at the karmic line as thick as a barrel; your mouth twitches!] ["Can I even generate karma with myself?"] ["Truly eye-opening."] [But what will happen with such arge amount of karmic power?] [You have a feeling it''s not a good thing.] [However, you have no way to resolve it.] [In the end, you shake your head, not thinking too deeply about it.]n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [Since it''s here, ept it.] [You stare at the former "you" (Jiang Wucai), and suddenly have a sh of inspiration!] [You''re wondering, what would happen if you used the Chaos Heavy Pupil on the former "you"?] [Thinking about it, you immediately use the Chaos Heavy Pupil.] [Jiang Yifeng (remnant): Original body Jiang Wucai (possessed); Talent: Cmity Tribtion Body¡­¡­] [Summary: Don''t ask me, ask yourself!] [Your eyes widen in surprise, you were just trying it out, and didn''t expect to actually see information.] [But what does that (remnant) mean?] [Is it because that "you" is also in a simtion; not the main body, hence a remnant?] [Or does it mean the main body itself is a remnant?] [This seems worth pondering!] In reality, Jiang Yifeng raised an eyebrow. He thought it was more worth pondering that the Chaos Heavy Pupil could see information. Clearly, this was the simtor''s intention. Otherwise, how could an Orange Talent see through a "Jiang Yifeng" with so many talents? This must be a hint deliberately given by the simtor! The simted self probably hasn''t realized this yet. But it doesn''t matter anymore! As long as his main body knows. Let''s continue to see how the simtion develops. [You use the Chaos Heavy Pupil on the ck spirit chicken again.] [The result is just as you expected.] [The ck spirit chicken haspletely transformed into the Netherworld Undying Phoenix; its soul isplete.] [In the following days, you remain in the Xuande Sect.] [You want to see the rise of the former "you" (Jiang Wucai).] [Watching your own rise seems to have a unique vor!] [In the blink of an eye, another year passes.] [During this year, you discover that every time Jiang Wucai (the former you) improves, your cultivation base significantly diminishes.] [It''s as if he''s drawing your strength to enhance himself.] [This makes you frown slightly.] [You can''t help but wonder, is this the true nature of the simtion?] [Every improvement in the simtion? Is it drawing strength from your past or future self to enhance yourself?] [If that''s the case, is there a third self existing in this timeline?] [Is he watching himself somewhere? Is his strength also being drawn by you?] [If that''s the case?] [What would the future self think when seeing the current simted self?] [Would it be friendly?] ["Stop!" You promptly halt your thoughts.] [Can''t think recklessly, can''t think recklessly!] ["It must be friendly! It can only be friendly!" You keep suggesting to yourself.] [You can''t joke about this.] [The current you, if you have bad thoughts, it could directly affect your future self.] [After a long time, you feel the self-suggestion is enough.] [You don''t continue to stay in the Xuande Sect.] [Although you won''t take action against Jiang Wucai (the former you).] [But you also don''t want your cultivation to keep regressing because of him.] [You think, maybe staying far away would be better.] [After leaving the Xuande Sect, you head straight for chaos.] [Upon reaching the depths of chaos, you initially n to hide and cultivate within it.] [But for some unknown reason, the Dao-level expert from the True Spirit Continent is rampaging everywhere.] [Not wanting to encounter him, you ultimately decide to leave the True Spirit Continent.] [You silently pass through the chaos barrier, heading towards the Demonic God Continent.] [It''s worth mentioning that the chaos barriers of the three continents, for some unknown reason, don''t obstruct you at all.] [So every time you traverse the chaos, it''s silent.] [This is also why the Dao-level experts of those continents haven''t discovered you yet.] [As for why you chose to go to the Demonic God Continent this time?] [It''s because you want to visit the White Tiger n.] [To see if Little White has been born yet?] [The Little White Tiger has always been a pain in your heart.] [This time, there''s a chance, why not take a look at him.] [You remember that the Little White Tiger didn''t have a good childhood.] [Despised by his race, with only an old servant apanying him.] [This time, you can seize the opportunity to make up for his tragic childhood!] Chapter 307: Help Little White change fate! [Demonic God Continent, White Tiger n!] [Even though there is a half-Dao level White Tiger ancestor guarding this ce,] [You still managed to slip in silently.] [This was partly due to the "Old Six" talent, but mostly because your strength was sufficient and your mastery of formations was strong enough to break through the formation quietly rather than forcefully.] [Otherwise, even with the "Old Six" talent, if you made too much noise, you would still be discovered.] [When you infiltrated the White Tiger n, Little White had not yet been born.] [You took up temporary residence within the White Tiger n under the guise of a human ve.] [Of course, you weren''t actually a ve and didn''t take care of any White Tigers.] [The White Tiger n members subconsciously ignored you because of your "Old Six" talent.][Time passed, and a thousand years flew by!] [By now, you had begun to show signs of aging.] [During this millennium, you clearly felt your cultivation slipping away faster and faster.] [To maintain your strength, you could only use the Great Dao of Time to resist the powerful force of karma.] [The consequence of this was that while your strength was temporarily preserved, your lifespan continued to dwindle.] [At your level, lifespan shouldn''t have been an issue, as it was so vast you couldn''t even estimate it.] [But over this thousand years, you had nearly exhausted that seemingly endless lifespan.] [One day, the White Tiger n was celebrating.] [The firstdy of the White Tiger n was about to give birth.] [On this day, you sensed a line of karma from the White Tiger n reaching out to you.] [You smiled slightly and murmured, "It seems Little White is born."] [Shortly after Little White''s birth, it was discovered that it had no innate Divine Ability.] [The White Tiger n is renowned for battle.] [Without an innate Divine Ability, whatbat power could Little White possibly have in the future?] [It quickly lost the privileges and affection a young n leader should have.] [Its peers in the White Tiger n more or less shunned it, unwilling to y with it.] [This made Little White quite self-conscious.] [By chance, Little White wandered into the human ves'' quarters.] [There, it saw many humans.] [It was curious about these beings that looked so different from itself.] [Its thought was simple: since its kind didn''t want to y with it, maybe it could y with these strange "things."] [Little White stepped into the ves'' courtyard.] [But Little White found that everyone there was acting strangely.] [They were all backing away, their bodies trembling.] [Did they not want to y with it?] [Little White was heartbroken, realizing that not only did its own kind not want to y with it, but even these strange humans didn''t like it.] [It didn''t understand that these human ves were afraid.] [Even though Little White wasn''t favored, it was still part of the White Tiger n, a noble.] [These lowly human ves weren''t allowed to interact with it.] [Seeing Little White, the ves naturally trembled with fear.] [Just as Little White was about to leave in disappointment, an old white-haired man stepped forward, trembling.] [He called out to Little White, asking if it wanted to choose a ve.] [Little White didn''t quite understand what choosing a ve meant.] [But seeing someone willing to talk to it, it instinctively nodded repeatedly.] [The old man was taken away by Little White.] [He became Little White''s ve.] [You witnessed all of this?] [No, to be precise, it was all orchestrated by you.] [The old man wasn''t you, but he approached Little White under your control.] [Originally, you didn''t n to intervene, just wanted to quietly watch over Little White and asionally give it something it liked.] [But you didn''t expect that no ve would dare approach Little White.] [This made you sigh once more at the whims of fate.] [If you hadn''te here to watch over Little White, would it have even had that old man to care for it during its childhood?] [In the days that followed, Little White lived with the old man.] [You asionally disguised yourself as the old man to y with Little White!] [Although Little White''s childhoodcked parental love and thepanionship of its kind, it was still rtively happy.] [One day, you suddenly sensed the feeling of your cultivation slipping away intensifying once more.] [Wrinkles appeared on your face, and your hair began to turn white.] [You knew your time was running out.] [You nced at Little White ying in the courtyard.] [A decision suddenly formed in your heart.] [You wanted to change Little White''s fate!] [Although you couldn''t change Little White''s fate of dying in battle,] [With your current strength, you might be able to preserve a sliver of life for Little White.] [Perhaps in the future, Little White could have a chance to start over.] [With this thought, you pointed a finger, using thest of your strength to capture a wisp of Little White''s soul.] [You wrapped this wisp of Little White''s soul in the Great Dao of Time and sent it to the future.] [You weren''t sure exactly when in the future it would arrive.] [Because your understanding of the Great Dao of Time wasn''t perfect.] [You did this only to leave a glimmer of hope, hoping Little White could use this wisp of soul to be reborn.] ["Pfft!" After doing all this, you couldn''t hold on any longer and spat out a mouthful of blood.] [You died!] [Leaving nothing behind.] [The old man you controlled also diedpletely when you passed away.] [Simtion ended!] [You can choose two simtion rewards this time.] [Heart Lock (Talent), Cultivation!] [Heart Lock]: Priced at origin values. [Cultivation]: Priced at 50 million origin values. (Already at half-step supreme;prehended most of the Great Dao of Time, the Great Dao of Fire... of the Ancient God of Chaos.) In reality, Jiang Yifeng hadn''t expected the simtion to end this way. Little White''s childhood was actually orchestrated by him. "Fate is truly mysterious!" After a moment of reflection, Jiang Yifeng wondered, since Little White''s soul was left behind, where did that wisp of soul go? To what point in time was it sent? Had it already appeared in the world, or was it still in the future? This question required him to find the answer himself. However, no matter what, Little White still had a chance for resurrection.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but smile slightly. As for the other issues in this simtion? For instance, where did Er Bao go? Why was he giving away the Great Dao of Fire? He mentioned the wrong time; what time was correct? Also, where did the other Divine Dao cultivators go? Where did the Ancient God Sect send the Divine Dao cultivators during their fifty-year actions? Even encountering his past simted self in the simtion, why was there such a significant karmic effect, and why was his cultivation slipping away so quickly? What was the reason behind all this? Jiang Yifeng was genuinely puzzled by these questions. But he didn''t dwell on them too much. Chapter 308: Heart Lock? Destiny Lock! Jiang Yifeng thought that the previous questions were likely rted to the schemes of the ck-robed man and the man in white. Thinking about it now wouldn''t help at all. It would only risk exposing his thoughts. Better not to think about it. As for encountering his past self in the simtion and losing his cultivation? Jiang Yifeng believed this might be rted to the rules of the simtor. With his current strength, there was no need to dwell on it. In the end, he could only record all the questions for now. He would solve them when he became stronger.Not long after. Jiang Yifeng calmed his mind and turned his attention to the simtion rewards this time. Great, just two options, no need to choose. He silently recited. "Choose talent and cultivation!" As Jiang Yifeng''s words fell, the simtor''s electronic voice promptly sounded. [Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining the talent Heart Lock; 10,000 origin values deducted, remaining origin values.] [Tip: Cultivation extraction sessful, 50 million origin values deducted; remaining origin values.] Time passed bit by bit, and two hourster. Jiang Yifeng''s cultivation had risen to the peak of the Ancient God of Chaos. He now possessed the strength he had in the simtion. Carefully sensing the various Dao powers he now mastered. Jiang Yifeng discovered that although his understanding of the Great Dao of Time was profound. The deepest understanding was still the Great Dao of Fire. If he wished, he could immediatelymunicate with the Great Dao of Fire, enter the Dao, and advance to Supreme God. Of course, there was a prerequisite: that the end of the Great Dao of Fire was unupied. Otherwise, a struggle for the Dao would still be necessary. Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng thought of a question. Could it be that the end of the Great Dao of Fire still held the shadow of Er Bao? Could the time Er Bao mentioned be now? No, that''s unlikely! In previous ordinary simtions, the world had been destroyed several times. Er Bao never appeared. Logically, at this stage of reality, Er Bao should not exist in the world, he should have died long ago. So how could his shadow still be at the end of the Great Dao of Fire? But is it really impossible? Did Er Bao really die? Jiang Yifeng recalled the situations from several simtions. He was somewhat uncertain. Er Bao had disappeared since the simtion from 700 million years ago! But ording to this simtion, he clearly wasn''t dead. So would he dieter? For a moment, many spections arose in Jiang Yifeng''s mind. He quickly interrupted his thoughts. Now was not the time to think about these things. He would think more safely after unlocking the Heart Lock (talent). Thus, Jiang Yifeng gathered his thoughts. He began to study the new talent he had acquired. This talent was said to be able to shield everything, even the simtor. Jiang Yifeng was half convinced. Since the simtor dared to introduce it this way, it should be able to shield the ck-robed man. As for his future self and the simtor? Jiang Yifeng was skeptical. His future self is an extension of his current self; can his current thoughts be hidden from the future? Is that possible? Impossible, unless that future isn''t the real future. As for hiding from the simtor? This talent was given by the simtor itself, hiding from it? Wouldn''t that be deceiving him as a Meek Person? Jiang Yifeng would never believe that, even if it killed him. After researching for a long time, he roughly understood how to use the new talent. This talent was different from previous ones. It required cooperation, it needed a real key. What was this key? Jiang Yifeng could choose for himself. It could be an object, or it could be a person. The prerequisite was that this key must have a strong causal rtionship with Jiang Yifeng himself. This made Jiang Yifeng frown slightly. He knew that this key was extremely important. Once the enemy grasped the key, as long as the key approached him, his talent would be ineffective. What should he choose as the key? This key needed to have a deep causal rtionship with him. And it couldn''t get close to him. Actually, these were secondary. The most crucial issue was. Now his thoughts might be monitored, could be perceived. No matter what he chose as the key, it could be known by others. This seemed to be a dead end. After a long time, Jiang Yifeng''s eyes lit up. "I''ve got it!" Jiang Yifeng kept thinking about the ck-robed man; he wanted to use the ck-robed man as the key. Although the ck-robed man was an enemy. At the same time, the simtor would warn him when the ck-robed man appeared. So the ck-robed man wouldn''t have the chance to get close. His Heart Lock wouldn''t be opened. Using the enemy as the key! This was Jiang Yifeng''s open scheme. As he kept silently reciting, a golden lock gradually appeared in his heart. The Heart Lock talent was sessfully activated! Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng''s lips curled slightly. He finally dared to let his thoughts run free, to think of all possibilities without restraint. ¡ª Meanwhile. In a void. The ck-robed man was slightly stunned. Just now, he sensed that his causal power with Jiang Yifeng had entwined more deeply. He followed the causal line to look at the world where Jiang Yifeng was. After a long time, he uttered three words: "Destiny Lock?" He looked up at the void and sneered, "Destiny? Ha, when everything turns to nothingness; when all beings cease to exist, where will destiny be?"n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om The ck-robed man''s words were full of disdain. In his eyes, "destiny" seemed to be nothing more than that. But his furrowed brows seemed to prove that "destiny" was not as insignificant as his words suggested. Of course, Jiang Yifeng knew nothing of this. At this moment, Jiang Yifeng hadpletely let his thoughts run free. He began to continue his previous line of thinking. Previously, he thought that Er Bao hadn''t died in this simtion. So would he dieter? Could it be that Er Bao was still alive now? Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng''s lips curled. "How interesting!" He thought it was quite possible that Er Bao was still alive. Even all the Divine Dao cultivators might be the same. With this, Jiang Yifeng also thought of how he couldn''t find Xiao Qing in the previous ordinary simtion. He remembered a piece of information from that simtion, which was that many Chosen had disappeared without a trace. Jiang Yifeng wondered if there was a hidden passage or ce in this world that he hadn''t found yet. If there was such a passage or ce? Could it be that Er Bao and the many Divine Dao cultivators were hiding inside? Was that why he couldn''t find Xiao Qing in the previous ordinary simtion? She hid in that ce, so he couldn''t find her? If there was such a ce, those missing Chosen would have a destination. Everything seemed to make sense! At this point, Jiang Yifeng could almost conclude that there must be such a ce. As for where it was, he would need to explore. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng murmured, "Another grand scheme!" Gathering so many Divine Dao cultivators and taking away all the Chosen. It was obvious at a nce that someone was orchestrating this. In Jiang Yifeng''s view, this person was most likely "his future self!" Of course, whether this "future self" was truly himself, Jiang Yifeng still had doubts. Chapter 309: There are still secrets in the Southern Regions! After a long while, Jiang Yifeng gathered his thoughts. The truth would need to be verified in the future. With this in mind, he prepared to continue the simtion. However, he noticed he only had over ten million origin values left. "Alright, better replenish the origin values first!" With just this amount, he wouldn''t be able to exchange for the next level of cultivation. This forced him to temporarily abandon his n to continue the simtion. Three days passed in the blink of an eye. By this time, Jiang Yifeng had already arrived in the Immortal Realm!"Exchange for origin values!" [Ding, exchange sessful, obtained 10,000 origin values!] [Ding, obtained 10,000 origin values!] ... Jiang Yifeng watched as the storage rings disappeared one by one, frowning. Something was off, very off! These storage rings were all obtained from the sects in the Immortal Realm. He had already checked, and each storage ring contained an abundance of cultivation resources. ording to the previous exchange rate, each storage ring should have been worth at least hundreds of thousands of origin values. "Simtor,e out and give an exnation!" ... The simtor did not respond. Three more days passed. Jiang Yifeng sought out several sects in the Immortal Realm for more resources. But the result was the same. The resources in a storage ring could only be exchanged for about ten to twenty thousand origin values. Jiang Yifeng looked towards the direction of the Nine Mystic Realm and the Southern Regions. A thought emerged in his mind. Could it be that there was something special about the Southern Regions or the Nine Mystic Realm? Was the energy different from the Immortal Realm? So the same resources from the Southern Regions could be exchanged for more origin values? With this in mind, Jiang Yifeng took out a spirit stone from the Southern Regions and one from the Immortal Realm for a detailedparison. Gradually, Jiang Yifeng''s frown deepened. The two spirit stones were exactly the same, with only a negligible difference in the spiritual energy they contained. Logically, if the spiritual energy was the same, the energy should be the same; thus, the exchangeable origin values should also be the same. Why was there such a big difference? Jiang Yifeng couldn''t figure it out! Could it be that the energy value mentioned by the simtion wasn''t this kind of spiritual energy? But rather a type of energy he couldn''t yet observe? If that were the case, why would the Southern Regions have such energy? With this thought, Jiang Yifeng chuckled lightly. "Heh, it''s getting more interesting!" Afterward, Jiang Yifeng left the Immortal Realm. Since the resources in the Immortal Realm were so worthless for origin values, there was no point in wasting time there. However, he didn''t return directly to the Southern Regions but instead went to the "Eastern Regions" of the Nine Mystic Realm! This was where Bai Moyu was located. He wasn''t there to find Bai Moyu but to visit a few demonic sects in the "Eastern Regions" to borrow some storage ring resources from their treasuries. He needed to verify whether it was the Southern Regions or the Nine Mystic Realm that was special. [Ding, exchange sessful, obtained 10,000 origin values.] Hearing the simtor''s prompt, Jiang Yifeng murmured, "So it really is a problem with the Southern Regions." With this realization, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but smile wryly. It turned out the simtor had left him a clue about the exchange of origin values early on. It was just that he had never left the Southern Regions before. So he never discovered the issue with the Southern Regions. Soon, Jiang Yifeng returned to the Southern Regions. He immediately expanded his divine sense, carefully observing everything in the Southern Regions. This time, during his divine sense exploration, he discovered the Xu Mi Sub-Realm where Su Mushuang resided! And that was it. Compared to before, this was the only new discovery. He couldn''t see any other special aspects of the Southern Regions. In the end, he shook his head and sighed. "Still too weak!" Retracting his divine sense, Jiang Yifeng didn''t delve further into the issues of the Southern Regions. Perhaps when he became stronger, he would be able to see through it. For now, he needed to continue collecting origin values. Thus, he returned to the Immortal Arrival Sect. [Ding, exchange sessful, obtained 8 million origin values!] [Ding, exchange sessful, obtained 5 million origin values.] [Ding...] ... This time, Jiang Yifengpletely emptied the Immortal Arrival Sect''s inventory. His origin values reached over 800 million, the exact number being! Looking at such arge amount of origin values, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but exim, "The Immortal Arrival Sect is amazing!" Compared to the Immortal Arrival Sect, the Immortal Realm was nothing. It''s just a pity that this time the Immortal Arrival Sect was truly drained. To obtain so many origin values from the Immortal Arrival Sect, he not only emptied their treasury but also cleaned out the private vaults of the Immortal Arrival Sect''s immortal ves. This left Jiang Yifeng with no choice but toment, "It will be difficult to acquire such arge amount of origin values in the future!" But that''s a matter for the future. For now, Jiang Yifeng was quite satisfied. He returned to the Jiang Family Mansion with arge amount of origin values. This time, his trip took nearly a month. The number of simtions was back to the maximum of ten. Jiang Yifeng stared at the simtor, lost in thought.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om Previously, he had nned to conduct a long-term deep simtion. Preferably for tens of millions, even hundreds of millions of years! But ns couldn''t keep up with changes. He hadn''t expected the resources in the Immortal Realm to be worth so few origin values. As a result, his n for long-term deep simtion was almost impossible. With just these few billion origin values, it was impossible to sustain such a long deep simtion. Moreover, these origin values were almost hisst major source; it would be even harder to obtain more in the future. He needed to use these origin values to directly enhance his strength. Jiang Yifeng sighed. "Ah, I want to work hard, but there''s no opportunity!" After a moment, he silently recited. "Start cross-time simtion, locate the time closest to three hundred million years ago!" Whether it was fate or a man-madeyout, Jiang Yifeng still wanted to witness every time period himself. So, he chose this time period. As his words fell, the simtor''s voice promptly sounded. [Ding, starting cross-time simtion; consuming 3 simtion attempts, 7 remaining!] [Timeline located: closest to three hundred million years ago!] [Prompt: Please select the simtion method, Host.] [1: Randomly select a target, host''s soul descends!] [2: Create a fictional physical body, host descends with full strength.] Ultimately, Jiang Yifeng chose option 1. Whether to witness history or to cultivate in seclusion, this choice was more suitable. Descending with full strength seemed only fit for showing off. [Ding, would you like to spend 1000 origin values to draw a talent?] "Yes!" [Talent drawing in progress, 1000 origin values deducted, remaining origin values.] [Congrattions to the host for obtaining red talent: Full-Level Comprehension!] [Full-Level Comprehension]: Yourprehension is astonishing. [Obtained one-time talent: Historian!] [Historian]: You are an experiencer of history and a witness! (When you activate the skill, you can be immune to all external disasters below the Hongmeng level; at the same time, you will be invisible, unable to enhance strength, unable to change history; only witness!) [Prompt: Hongmeng is a realm above the Supreme God!] Chapter 310: Heart Lock, who exactly is it locking away? Looking at the talents given by the simtor this time, Jiang Yifeng felt his luck wasn''t too bad! Well, if there''s no foul y involved... Full-levelprehension, this red talent, should be the superior talent of Inevitable Enlightenment! Nothing much to say about that. As for the one-time talent? This seems a bit interesting. Especially with that hint, it''s clearly telling him that the Hongmeng level is the realm beyond the Supreme God. Besides, Jiang Yifeng felt that in this simtion, he had a high chance of encountering a Hongmeng-level powerhouse. After all, once the talent "Historian" is activated, not even a Hongmeng-level being could kill him!While Jiang Yifeng was contemting, the simtor''s prompt continued. [Talent Pool: Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root, Absolute Rationality, Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root, Cmity Tribtion Body!] [Would you like to choose...] "No!" Jiang Yifeng still didn''t choose any talents from the talent pool.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om At his current level, he didn''t need these talents anymore. Of course, Absolute Rationality might be useful, but after he realized the simtion was a real world, he dared not use it. He feared that the final enemy would be himself, carrying Absolute Rationality. [The 36th simtion begins.] [You appear 290 million years ago.] [You descend into the body of a rogue cultivator named Jiang Shi.] [This time, you''re in luck; Jiang Shi has a Quasi-Saint level cultivation in the Immortal Dao.] [Thus, your cultivation instantly unlocks to the Six-star Ancient God realm, roughly matching thebat power of a Quasi-Saint.] [You rub your forehead and begin to ept the original host''s memories.] [At this moment, you suddenly sense a deadly crisis.] [The ground beneath you cracks open.] [No, that''s not right! The void also tears apart, and the Dao is shattering!] [Countless void storms surge in.] [In an instant, you''re engulfed by them.] [You struggle to hold on for several minutes before finally using the one-time talent "Historian" for self-preservation.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng frowned slightly. Although he had anticipated that a simtion close to 300 million years ago would have some changes, he didn''t expect it to be this harsh. As soon as he entered the simtion, there was a void storm, and the Dao was shattering. In the end, it forced the simtion''s version of himself to use a one-time talent. There was no time for development at all. Had he known this, he should have chosen to simte with full strength. Now it seems this simtion was aplete waste. But witnessing history was still somewhat worthwhile. Jiang Yifeng wasn''t too disappointed. Besides, he felt something was off about this simtion. After reviewing it several times, he discovered the issue. His own thoughts in the simtion were missing! Logically, if he encountered danger, he should have considered what was happening. In previous simtions, this was always shown. But this time, it was gone. Was it the Heart Lock taking effect? Or was the simtor ying him? "Hey, simtor, give me some thoughts, will you? I''m not used to this!" Jiang Yifeng called out softly to the simtion panel. Obviously, his words received no response. But this was within Jiang Yifeng''s expectations. Regardless of whether his guess was right or not, he decided to bluff first. After that, he continued to look at the simtor. [Using the one-time talent "Historian," you instantly became immune to all void storms.] [Even the copse of the Dao no longer affected you.] [At this moment, you seemed like an invincible War God.] [Uh, no, you also couldn''t influence this world or others.] [You became aplete spectator.] [Time passed, and you walked alone in the void.] [You witnessed countless mortals and cultivators perish in the copse of the Dao.] [But fortunately, not all Daos were copsing.] [There were still safe havens.] [In the blink of an eye, 30 million years passed.] [You witnessed the birth of the Nine Mystic Realm, the Myriad Demon Realm... a series of realms.] [But you never saw the Immortal Realm!] [This left you deep in thought...] [After all the realms were restructured, new Heavenly Daos emerged in each realm.] [Your cultivation was only at the Seven-star Ancient God realm, making it difficult to break through the Heavenly Dao and observe the situation in other realms.] [So, you directly descended into the Nine Mystic Realm.] [As an invisible person, you witnessed the rise of Da Hu, Xiao Qing, and your father Jiang Fushan, and your mother Su Mushuang.] [They all became important cornerstones in the reconstruction of the Nine Mystic Realm.] [In the blink of an eye, time moved to 180 million years ago.] [By this time, Da Hu and Xiao Qing had already broken through to the Dao-level.] [Your father Jiang Fushan and mother Su Mushuang also had nearplete half-Dao level strength, just one step away from entering the Dao realm.] [One day, you discovered they suddenly disappeared!] [Hmm? Did they disappear? Or perhaps your strength was insufficient, making it difficult to observe those much stronger than you, even as a witness!] [In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of years passed.] [160 million years ago, you discovered an old acquaintance, Bai Moyu, in the Eastern Regions of the Nine Mystic Realm!] [At this time, Bai Moyu was still a young genius!] [With nothing better to do, you followed Bai Moyu, watching him grow step by step.] [50 million years passed, and Bai Moyu grew into a Saint realm powerhouse.] [He became a figure who couldmand the wind and rain in the Nine Mystic Realm.] [100 million years ago, Bai Moyu established the Celestial Verdant Sect!] [Shortly after establishing the sect, he took Guo Qing as his first disciple.] [Not long after, Bai Ruoxue was born; she became Guo Qing''s junior sister.] [The Nine Mystic Realm weed two more Chosen.] [Over 10 million years passed, and Guo Qing broke through to the peak of the Great Principal Golden Immortal, just a step away from Quasi-Saint.] [Bai Ruoxue, with even greater talent, reached the Quasi-Saint realm in just over 10 million years; her future was promising!] [Unknowingly, time moved to 80 million years ago.] [The Immortal Realm began invading various realms.] [It''s worth mentioning that although you were a witness to history, due to the obstruction of the Heavenly Dao in each realm, your cultivation couldn''t break through to see the situation outside, and you didn''t see how the Immortal Realm was formed.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng sighed. "This simtion was aplete waste!" His strength was insufficient to witness much. And without the thoughts in the simtion, many things were glossed over. Reading the simtor''s text like this, he couldn''t know what the actual situation was, making it difficult to specte. Damn this Heart Lock, who exactly is it locking? Did it lock others, preventing them from knowing his thoughts? Jiang Yifeng wasn''t sure about this yet! Anyway, he now knew that his own information sources werergely locked. Jiang Yifeng stared at the simtor, muttering bitterly to himself. "Simtor, oh simtor; if you''re acting, you''ve done enough; this simtion couldn''t even enhance my strength, give me some information!" Chapter 311: Real transparent person! Jiang Yifeng''s musings received no response from the simtor. He stared at the simtor panel for a long time. Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng silently recited a phrase. "Activate deep simtion for a hundred years!" He decided to see for himself the situation of the Immortal Realm''s invasion from eighty million years ago. In this simtion, the Immortal Realm had just begun its invasion. With his one-time talent as a "Historian," he could remain undetected. He thought that blending in with the people of the Immortal Realm might give him a chance to figure out how they developed the technique to devour the Heavenly Dao. Compared to how the Immortal Realm was formed, this might be even more important! Of course, there might be a connection.[Ding, activating deep simtion for a hundred years, deducting origin values; remaining origin values.] As the simtor''s electronic voice sounded, Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness instantly appeared within the simtion. At this moment, he found himself standing on a bustling street. Where exactly was this? He wasn''t sure. Suddenly, the urgent sound of horse hooves echoed. Soon, Jiang Yifeng saw a group of mortal soldiers and bandits ridingrge horses, rushing towards him. The civilians on the street were thrown into chaos, retreating in panic. Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng had no intention of being a hero. He also prepared to avoid them like everyone else. However, before he could move, he discovered something surprising. He was truly invisible! It wasn''t just in his subconscious; it was physical. In the chaos, he saw several civilians pass right through his body. After a long silence, Jiang Yifeng thought of a term to describe his current state: a ghost! At this moment, he somewhat understood the one-time talent "Historian" that said he could only witness, not change history. If others couldn''t see or touch him, how could he change history? No, that''s not right. Suddenly, Jiang Yifeng thought about being unseen and untouchable. What about sound? Writing; spiritual sense; attacks... Could these also change history? Were they also restricted? Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng shouted loudly, "Hey, fellow countrymen..." This shout had no target; it was just an experiment to see if anyone could hear him. ... No one around reacted. Well, sound couldn''t be transmitted either. At this moment, the mortal soldiers and bandits had already reached him. Seeing their arrogant demeanor, Jiang Yifeng casuallyunched an attack. But there was no attack. No reaction at all, not even a ripple. Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng watched the "soldiers and bandits" pass through his transparent body and snorted, "Consider yourselves lucky!" By this time, Jiang Yifeng was almost certain that nothing he did would leave a trace. Although he suspected this, he still conducted many experiments. For example, he ran into an art studio and painted a divine phoenix (a chick pecking at rice) right in front of a master painter!N?v(el)B\\jnn Well, the master painter didn''t react! However, Jiang Yifeng''s reaction was significant. Because he remembered picking up the brush and painting the divine phoenix. But upon closer inspection, the brush was still in ce; the paper was still nk. He seemed to have realized something! It was as if he had touched upon the Great Dao. But just as he was about to have an epiphany, the connection was suddenly severed. Jiang Yifeng eximed in regret. He understood that his full-levelprehension shed with the one-time talent "Historian." Full-levelprehension made it easy for him to have epiphanies. But the "Historian" talent prevented him from gaining any improvement. In the end, the one-time talent prevailed. He indeed gained no improvement. Afterward, Jiang Yifeng conducted many more experiments. It was exactly as he suspected! No matter what method he used, he couldn''t affect others! No one could know of his existence. At this moment, he finally understood why, in previous simtions, he hadn''t interacted with anyone. He hadn''t even contacted his father, Jiang Fushan, just silently observed. It turned out he couldn''t make contact at all. Jiang Yifeng muttered, "This one-time talent ''Historian'' really doesn''t mess around!" "A witness is a witness, no loopholes left!" Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng eximed that it was difficult. Although this talent made it impossible for others to detect his existence. It allowed him to do many things silently. But it also prevented him from gathering information from others, even through interrogation. To learn anything, he could only observe with his own eyes. It was both advantageous and disadvantageous! After confirming his situation, Jiang Yifeng took a step and headed out of the Nine Mystic Realm. Without much effort, he left the Nine Mystic Realm. The Heavenly Daopletely ignored him. This reassured Jiang Yifeng about his uing actions. Previously, he had seen in the simtion that the Heavenly Dao blocked his view of the outside world, and he thought the Heavenly Dao could detect him! Now it seemed that wasn''t the case. The Heavenly Dao only blocked part of the view. To be precise, it was still a matter of insufficient strength; he couldn''t see too far. That''s why he couldn''t see outside the Nine Mystic Realm. After stepping out of the Nine Mystic Realm, Jiang Yifeng looked around the void, feeling a bit lost. Which way should he go? Based on the information from the previous simtion, at this point in time eighty million years ago, the Immortal Realm was invading the Demon God Realm. But where was the Demon God Realm? He didn''t have memories from this simtion. And in reality, the Demon God Realm had long since vanished; he didn''t know the exact location. After thinking for a moment, Jiang Yifeng pped his forehead. Why look for the Demon God Realm? He wanted to figure out the origin of the Immortal Realm''s technique to devour the Heavenly Dao! Wouldn''t it be better to go directly to the Immortal Realm for clues? With this thought, Jiang Yifeng headed towards the location of the Immortal Realm in reality. In reality, he had been to the Immortal Realm and roughly knew its location. But in the previous simtion, he had received information that the Immortal Realm had moved to suppress the Heavenly Dao of the Nine Mystic Realm. Whether the current location of the Immortal Realm matched reality, Jiang Yifeng wasn''t entirely sure. But regardless! It was better than running around like a headless chicken. Time passed, and over a decade went by. Jiang Yifeng finally saw traces of the Immortal Realm. The Immortal Realm''s position was much farther from the Nine Mystic Realm than in reality. Of course, this wasn''t the main reason it took Jiang Yifeng so long to reach the Immortal Realm. The most important reason was his current low strength, which made his movement speed in the void slow. Because of this, what took him a few days in reality at the Ancient God realm of chaos now took years. However, Jiang Yifeng felt that as long as he found the Immortal Realm, nothing else mattered. He had a premonition that this time he might uncover the mystery of the Immortal Realm''s invasion of other realms. Although previous simtions had confirmed that the Immortal Realm invaded other realms to plunder the Heavenly Dao and increase their power, Jiang Yifeng felt it wasn''t that simple. Perhaps theter people of the Immortal Realm indeed thought this way. But was the initial purpose of the person who spread the technique to devour the Heavenly Dao that simple? Jiang Yifeng believed it couldn''t be so. Chapter 312: Maliciously altering history Staring at the Immortal Realm just within reach, Jiang Yifeng didn''t hesitate and stepped right in! The Heavenly Dao of the Immortal Realm showed no reaction. Upon entering the Immortal Realm, Jiang Yifeng was momentarily stunned. Something''s not right! Compared to the current Immortal Realm, there seemed to be a slight anomaly in the spiritual energy. What exactly was it? With his current strength, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t detect it. So he decisively used his Chaos Heavy Pupil on the air of the Immortal Realm. It was his first time using this talent on air.For a moment, he felt a bit anxious, unsure if he could discern anything! [Spiritual energy? Air? Power ofws? Power of the Dao? Void...] [Summary: What exactly do you want me to see???] Seeing the summary disyed by the Chaos Heavy Pupil, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but let out a bitterugh, "So it really doesn''t work?" But then he noticed something amiss. The air containing spiritual energy, air,ws, and Dao made sense. But void? That didn''t seem right! Although void can be considered a kind of Dao, it represents the absence of all beings, everything turning to nothing. How could the air of the Immortal Realm contain such a thing? For a moment, Jiang Yifeng pondered deeply. Could it be that the initial purpose of the Immortal Realm was to use the Heavenly Dao from other realms to save itself? To purify the Immortal Realm? Did it only gradually change over time? It''s possible! However, Jiang Yifeng felt that the specifics needed careful investigation. In the days that followed, Jiang Yifeng wandered throughout the Immortal Realm. His main focus was on the major Holy Lands of the Immortal Realm. He loitered in front of the strongest figures of those Holy Lands every day, hoping to uncover some information. ording to his thinking, since the Immortal Realm''s plundering of the Heavenly Dao from other realms was a coordinated action, it must have been initiated by these Holy Lands. Keeping an eye on the strongest figures of these Holy Lands should be the easiest way to spot any issues.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om Years passed in the blink of an eye! One day, Jiang Yifeng saw a Saint realm expert hurriedly returning to the Holy Land sect. The expert went straight to the half-Dao level elder beside Jiang Yifeng. "Elder, the Demon God Realm is tough to crack, we''ve only managed to snatch this bit of Heavenly Dao fragment!" The Saint realm expert took out a wisp of the Demon God Realm''s Heavenly Dao fragment and handed it to the half-Dao level elder. "No matter, it''s enough for testing for now!" "Though the Demon God Realm is tough, they are, after all, a different race, and people from other realms won''t easily help them!" "Try to seize the entire Heavenly Dao of the Demon God Realm before the other realms react!" The half-Dao level elder took the Heavenly Dao fragment, gave a few instructions, and let the Saint realm expert leave. All of this unfolded before Jiang Yifeng''s eyes. At this moment, he felt a bit confused. Previously, he thought that the current Immortal Realm might just be trying to save itself. But now, listening to the half-Dao level elder''s words, he felt he might need to retract his earlier assumptions. The elder''s talk of experiments and other remarks didn''t sound righteous at all! Before Jiang Yifeng could think further, the half-Dao level elder had already left the Holy Land with the Heavenly Dao fragment from the Demon God Realm. Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng quickly followed. ... Unfortunately,cking strength, he lost track of them in a wilderness! After several days of searching, he still couldn''t find any trace. Just when Jiang Yifeng thought the trail had gone cold, a twist of fate urred. He discovered a slight disturbance tens of thousands of miles away. An extremely peculiar energy was erupting. Without hesitation, Jiang Yifeng rushed over. Soon after, he discovered several Saint-level formations. Choosing not to break them, Jiang Yifeng simply ignored them and stepped right in. The formations didn''t detect Jiang Yifeng''s presence. They ignored him as well. With his talent, he could afford to be so audacious. After passing through nearly a hundred Saint-level formations, Jiang Yifeng finally saw figures. He saw the half-Dao level elder again. Besides the half-Dao level elder, Jiang Yifeng also saw many others. Among them were Saint realm and Quasi-Saint realm experts. Additionally, there were several half-Dao level experts. There was even a Dao-level expert present. In front of these people was a creature, pitch-ck all over, resembling both a fish and a kun. "What is this?" Jiang Yifeng didn''t recognize it. So he used his Chaos Heavy Pupil again. [Void Beast: Everything it devours will turn into void!] [Summary: A creature of the void, it itself belongs to the void.] After reading this information, Jiang Yifeng frowned slightly. At this moment, he seemed to understand why the air in the Immortal Realm contained void. It should be produced by this Void Beast. But he was puzzled. Where did the people of the Immortal Realm get this creature from the void? And what do they intend to do with it? He couldn''t figure it out! For now, Jiang Yifeng could only watch, to see what these experts of the Immortal Realm would do. Perhaps he could discover something. However, the next scene made Jiang Yifeng''s pupils contract. He saw this group of half-Dao level, even Dao-level experts from the Immortal Realm; they directly cut off a piece of the Void Beast''s flesh and fed it to an elderly Saint realm expert. After swallowing the Void Beast''s flesh, the Saint realm expert''s body began to disintegrate instantly, on the verge of turning into void. At that moment, the half-Dao level expert from before fed the wisp of Heavenly Dao fragment from the Demon God Realm into the Saint realm expert''s mouth. Then, an unbelievable scene unfolded. The Saint realm expert, who was about to disintegrate, had the power of void within him merge with the power of the Heavenly Dao fragment. In the end, not only did he not die, but his strength surged. Meanwhile, the people of the Immortal Realm present burst intoughter. They seemed to see the glory of the Immortal Realm. But the invisible Jiang Yifeng on the side couldn''t feel happy. He understood the situation on the scene. These people of the Immortal Realm were using the power of the Void Beast to devour the Heavenly Dao fragments. Could this be the truth? But this was different from what he had previously understood. Weren''t the people of the Immortal Realm devouring the Heavenly Dao fragments because of their cultivation techniques? If they were using the power of the Void Beast to neutralize and devour the Heavenly Dao fragments, how could it havested for tens of millions of years? A Void Beast would run out eventually, right? And even if it didn''t, why didn''t he sense the power of void when he went to the Immortal Realm in reality? The current situation didn''t add up. Something was very wrong! But Jiang Yifeng couldn''t pinpoint what was wrong. Unless someone was maliciously altering history? "Yes, yes, someone is maliciously altering history!" Jiang Yifeng thought this was the most likely possibility. As for whether history could be maliciously altered? He believed it was possible. If one could travel through time, why couldn''t they alter history? He just didn''t know if destiny''s correction woulde into y. Chapter 313: Hello, my name is Jiang Yifeng As Jiang Yifeng was lost in his chaotic thoughts, theughter of the Immortal Realm''s powerful figures gradually subsided. Although their experiment had seeded, with only one Void Beast, not everyone could use this method to enhance their strength. What should they do now? The atmosphere grew tense for a moment. Everyone watched each other warily. They were not just partners now, but also rivals. All of them wanted to use the Void Beast to devour the Heavenly Dao and increase their power. Seeing this scene, a Dao-level expert from the Immortal Realm understood. Heughed heartily at the half-Dao level experts and said, "No need to worry, everyone. Since I invited you to join this experiment, naturally, I can ensure everyone shares in the benefits!""Watch closely, everyone!" With that, the Dao-level expert decisively acted, throwing a Quasi-Saint from the Immortal Realm into the mouth of the Void Beast. In just a moment, the previously severed flesh of the Void Beast was restored as if it had never been injured. If it were just the restoration of the physical body, it wouldn''t be much. Cultivators with slightly higher cultivation could restore their physical bodies! But this Void Beast waspletely restored, not just in body, but in aura and strength¡ªeverything was exactly as it was before the injury. This was something cultivators couldn''t achieve. Even Dao-level experts couldn''t do it. If a Dao-level expert were injured, even if they could instantly heal their physical wounds, their strength and aura would still suffer. They would need time to recuperate. The powerful figures of the Immortal Realm, seeing the scene before them, felt no sorrow for the Quasi-Saint devoured by the Void Beast. Instead, they began to discuss excitedly! "This Void Beast has such an ability; it''s truly a treasure!" "Indeed, now all of us can use it to enhance our strength." "Hahaha, it seems destined that our Immortal Realm will conquer everything!" ... The Void Beast''s ability to recover was, in their eyes, far more important than a Quasi-Saint expert! This meant they could continuously enhance their strength. All they needed to do was regrly feed the Void Beast. As for whether the Void Beast needed cultivators or experts to feed on? What did it matter? At worst, they could capture people from other realms. If that didn''t work, they could cultivate their own. Compared to enhancing their own strength, nothing else mattered. Jiang Yifeng, invisible on the side, felt a surge of anger at their reactions. Did these people have any humanity left? A moment ago, they wereughing and chatting with a fellow cultivator, who was now fed to the Void Beast, yet none of them felt any sorrow. Instead, they were discussing the value of the Void Beast. But on second thought, it wasn''t surprising. Those who participated in this experiment, disregarding life and death, plundering the Heavenly Dao of other realms¡ªhow could they have any humanity? How could they feel sorrow over the loss of a fellow cultivator? Those with a sense of righteousness in the Immortal Realm wouldn''t participate in such an experiment! Looking at the faces of these Immortal Realm experts, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but wonder, "Have these people been maliciously influenced, or were they always like this?" Just then, a voice reached Jiang Yifeng''s ears! "The path of cultivation is inherently cruel; I told you, you''ve been too sheltered!" As the voice echoed, Jiang Yifeng''s heart tightened. "Who is it?" "Who''s speaking to me?" "Has the Historian''s talent failed?" He scanned his surroundings, trying to find the speaker. Soon, he noticed a figure in white behind the group of Immortal Realm experts. It seemed none of the powerful figures, including the Dao-level expert, had seen this man in white. It appeared the speaker was this man in white. Jiang Yifeng stared intently at the man in white, his mind racing! He hadn''t expected him to appear. And right in front of him! But what did he mean by those words? That he was too sheltered? Who was protecting him? And why did the man in white''s tone not sound like his future self? Could his previous guesses have been wrong? So, Jiang Yifeng used the Chaos Heavy Pupil again. [?????] [Summary: ????] It was still the same as before when he looked at the man in white, just a string of gibberish. He couldn''t see anything! As Jiang Yifeng''s mind wandered, the man in white moved. Jiang Yifeng saw the man in white raise his palm. Then he slowly pressed down. In an instant, all the Immortal Realm figures present, including the Dao-level expert and the Void Beast, turned to ashes. Even the power of the void in this ce waspletely dispersed. Such terrifying power. However, after the man in white unleashed this strike, his figure flickered a few times, almost disappearing. It seemed his condition wasn''t good. He looked as if he might vanish at any moment. Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng didn''t hesitate and shouted at him. "Who are you?" Jiang Yifeng initially thought the man wouldn''t respond. But the result surprised him. The man in white turned around and looked at Jiang Yifeng! He slowly lifted the white robe covering his entire body, revealing a young and handsome face! "Hello, Jiang Yifeng, nice to meet you; I am ''Jiang Yifeng''!" Jiang Yifeng''s pupils contracted. Although he had already suspected! Seeing a face identical to his own reality was still unbelievable. He had actually met his "future self." And now they had crossed paths! Seeing Jiang Yifeng''s shocked expression, the man in white, "Jiang Yifeng," shook his head and chuckled softly. "Don''t overthink it, I''m not you!" "Nor am I them!" As the words of the man in white, "Jiang Yifeng," fell, his form became even more ethereal.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om Sensing his time was short, the man in white, "Jiang Yifeng," tossed a manual onto the ground. Then he pointed at Jiang Yifeng. "Remember, history can change, but the oue cannot!" With those words, the man in white, "Jiang Yifeng,"pletely vanished. And as for Jiang Yifeng? He had no time to care about what the manual on the ground was. Now, a scene appeared in his mind. He felt this might be important information left by his "future self." Even though the other imed not to be him. But regardless, Jiang Yifeng felt the other wouldn''t harm him. It was an instinctual feeling. Focusing all his thoughts on the scene in his mind. Jiang Yifeng saw a silver river! "The river of time?" In Jiang Yifeng''s view, the silver river in the scene should be the river of time. But the silver river in the scene was strange. Its source was shrouded in a mass of ck void power. And within the void power, there seemed to be several golden gates. Then there was a long stretch of silver river, followed by another golden gate. Then another stretch of silver river. Another gate... silver river... After several repetitions, the river broke, enveloped in void! But this wasn''t the end. Chapter 314: Nine silver lakes! Enveloped once again by the power of the void, a stretch of silver river appeared! Hmm, this was actually Jiang Yifeng''s spection. In reality, it looked more like a sudden appearance of a silverke. Because that stretch of river was entirely surrounded by void. As for what came next, several silverkes appeared. Then it was just a void. Staring at the image in his mind for a long time. Jiang Yifeng frowned slightly. He couldn''t quite understand what this image meant."Those gates? Are they the ''World Gates'' he thought of before?" "But their arrangement is so strange!" There weren''t many gates along the entire silver river. It seemed there were only "six ces." One was at the source of the silver river, wrapped in void.N?v(el)B\\jnn The other five were above the river of time. However, these five ces with gates didn''t just have one "gate." Typically, there were two to three "gates" in one location! At the very end, there were even nine "gates." Of course, Jiang Yifeng also knew that if this silver river was the river of time. These gates, although they looked close together, were definitely not at the same point in time; they were just very close. So the few ces he divided were just an approximation. But no matter what, he couldn''t find any pattern at the moment. Could it be that these "gates" were just so chaotic? After staring at the image for a long time, Jiang Yifeng thought of a question. If this was a map of the river of time? Then where would reality be? Eventually, he focused his gaze on the end of the river of time. Reality would be destroyed a thousand yearster. So it should be at the end or those scattered kes"! Recalling that he had discovered "gates" in reality! That could rule out those kes." Because in the image, there were no gates on those "silverkes." So the most likely time in reality was the end of this river of time map. Which was the ce with nine "gates." After reaching this conclusion. Jiang Yifeng instantly thought; in reality, he had only found one "gate." But previously, in ordinary simtions, a "gate" had also appeared in the time period a thousand years into the future! And he had endowed it with spirit! Could the "gate" in the simtion count as one of the "gates" at the end of the river of time in this image? If so? Does that mean "gates" represent parallel worlds? Does a ce with "gates" represent several parallel worlds? No, that''s not right! If that were the case, then there wouldn''t only be nine gates at the end of the image. After all, every time he simted, a new parallel world and a new "gate" would appear. So, the gates in the image couldn''t represent parallel time. These "gates" might not be directly rted to the "gates" he saw in the simtion! Calming his mind, Jiang Yifeng stopped thinking about the "gates." Instead, he turned his gaze to those silver kes" behind the silver river! What exactly were they? Were they the river of time after being severed? Counting the number of silver kes." Nine! Again, nine. Jiang Yifeng instantly thought of the nine golden "gates" at the end of the silver river! Although he didn''t know what connection there was between the two. But with the same number, he always felt there must be some rtion. But what kind of rtion? After pondering for a long time, Jiang Yifeng suddenly thought of what the man in white said when he appeared this time: "I am not you, nor are they!" Suddenly, his eyes lit up. He rubbed his chin, mumbling to himself as he reasoned. "If, if those silverkes are also the future?" "Does that mean there are nine futures?" "Then are there nine ''future selves,'' nine men in white!" "So when the man in white said ''not them,'' did he mean ''future selves'' are not just one?" "If that''s really the case? Then when the man in white initially said he was too well-protected?" "Was he referring to other ''future selves,'' that is, the other men in white, protecting him?" Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng felt it seemed to make sense. Whatever hecked, the Southern Regions almost had it! It really seemed like raising pigs! Indeed, the protection was somewhat excessive. If this hypothesis was correct. Then could the gates in this image represent ces where the future self had arranged something? Or ces where the "future self" traveled back to change? But then Jiang Yifeng thought of what the man in white said before disappearing: "History can change, but the ending cannot!" Since the ending was set? Why would they travel back to make changes? "Wait..." They all seemed to be helping him. And if he returned to reality? Would that count as their history? But that wasn''t his history! "So the ending can be changed, just not by people from the future!" Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng''s lips curled into a smile. He seemed to understand the motives of the men in white. It seemed that even if reality survived the crisis of world destruction, something severely impactful still happened in the future. Leading to the future self being unable to save himself. So they wanted to change the past, to remind him, to let him reach a higher level? Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng sighed, "The road ahead is long and arduous!" After taking another look at the image in his mind and confirming he couldn''t get more information, he stopped delving into it. Then! He walked to the ce where the man in white "Jiang Yifeng" had disappeared. Picked up the manual the other had dropped on the ground. After flipping through it, Jiang Yifeng sighed. "Sure enough, it''s the method of devouring the Heavenly Dao passed down by ''me''!" Although this "me" was his future self. Jiang Yifeng really wanted to ask fate, how much karma was he supposed to bear! The manual had already been dropped, and now even if Jiang Yifeng wanted to destroy it, he couldn''t. He had no choice, he was still in the state of a one-time talent "Historian," he could only witness, unable to influence external objects. Even if he just flipped through the manual, it was only what he thought he did. The reality was, the manual was still on the ground. What he flipped through was a phantom manual identical to the one on the ground! After a sigh, Jiang Yifeng didn''t stay there any longer. It was meaningless! The mystery of the Immortal Realm''s invasion had beenpletely solved. As for who picked up the manual afterward, it no longer mattered. And this so-called history, due to the variousyouts and games; it was already impossible to distinguish true from false. However, Jiang Yifeng felt; one thing could be confirmed, the fact that the Immortal Realm invaded various realms to seize the Heavenly Dao was real. Because the man in white "Jiang Yifeng" had said, the ending couldn''t be changed. And the reality of the Immortal Realm seizing fragments of the Heavenly Dao and destroying various realms was the ending! In the blink of an eye, a hundred years passed. [Ding, deep simtion ended!] With the simtor''s electronic voice sounding. Jiang Yifeng''s consciousness returned to reality! The Novel will be updated first on this website. Come back and continue reading tomorrow, everyone! Chapter 315: The Nine Mystic Realm has been invaded! Gently rubbing his forehead, Jiang Yifeng recalled the hundred years of deep simtion. After the appearance of the man in white, who looked like "Jiang Yifeng," and the scene he showed him, everything unfolded as Jiang Yifeng had anticipated. The manual left by the man in white was eventually picked up by someone. The people from the Immortal Realm continued to plunder the Heavenly Dao of other realms. However, because the technique had little effect on half-Dao level experts, the half-Dao level experts from the Immortal Realm did not directly participate in the plundering process. They only blocked the half-Dao level experts from the Demon God Realm! In the end, the real participants in the battle were limited to those in the Saint realm. This situation was basically consistent with the information he had obtained during his previous simtions. All the invaders were cultivators at the Saint realm or below!It seemed that everything was back on track. Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng suddenly chuckled. "You say ''others'' have protected me well, but aren''t you the same!" At this moment, he roughly understood the meaning behind the man in white leaving the manual that devoured the Heavenly Dao. It was still the phrase "the future cannot be changed!"n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om If the man in white hadn''t left that manual, it would have meant the future was forcibly altered. The Immortal Realm''s invasion of other realms would no longer rely on secret techniques but on the Void Beasts! That wouldpletely change reality. If that happened, what would the consequences be? Jiang Yifeng thought it might affect his reality, or perhaps it would give birth to a new timeline. In any case, it wouldn''t be anything good. This might be the true intention behind the man in white leaving the manual that devoured the Heavenly Dao. At the same time, Jiang Yifeng also thought of the various closed loops from before. Could it also be the handiwork of his "future self"? Could it be that each man in white was also setting up a n, exerting influence? Intentionally or unintentionally promoting closed loops, so that the final result returns to the reality''s conclusion? The more he thought about it, the more Jiang Yifeng felt this possibility was significant. Otherwise, why were so many closed loops rted to him? As for the purpose of the other party doing this? Perhaps it was to make reality return to history; not topletely deviate! At the same time, Jiang Yifeng also recalled the memory scene left by the man in white! Why were the ninekes in that scene disconnected from the river of time? Could it be because the man in white forcibly changed certain oues? Causing their time segments to be out of sync with history? And thus left the river of time? What severe consequences would this have? So the man in white didn''t want the timeline where Jiang Yifeng''s reality existed to have its oue changed? Jiang Yifeng felt that this possibility seemed very high! But he didn''t know that it wasn''t just the man in white who wanted to promote closed loops. The ck-robed man was also very excited when Jiang Yifengpleted a closed loop. But who would ultimately benefit? Who would be the final winner? Of course, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t think of these things now. After all, hecked information. At this moment, Jiang Yifeng stopped thinking about the deep simtion. Instead, he turned his gaze back to the simtor. [You look at the unfamiliar environment and realize something; you murmur, "Was I deeply simted?"] [You quickly open your storage ring to check the memory crystal inside.] [After a long time, you realize a hundred years have passed!] [You also roughly understand some things about the deep simtion.] [After pondering for a moment, you shake your head and start wandering around!] [After a long time, you encounter a team from the Immortal Realm on an expedition to the Demon God Realm.] [Without hesitation, you follow them.] [Later, you witness the great battle between the Demon God Realm and the Immortal Realm.] [You observe the various demon ns of the Demon God Realm during this time period.] [You see the Dragon n... but upon closer inspection, you find thatpared to the Azure Dragon you encountered in the previous simtion, these dragons have extremely diluted bloodlines!] [Calling them the Dragon n might be more urately described as Demonic Dragons.] [You also see the White Tiger n; like the Dragon n, they are no longer the pure White Tiger n; they only have a trace of the White Tiger bloodline!] [There are many other races, all in the same situation!] [Perhaps it is precisely because all the demon god ns have impure bloodlines that they are suppressed by the Immortal Realm; exterminated!] [In the blink of an eye, hundreds of thousands of years pass; the Demon God Realm is on the brink of destruction; their half-Dao level experts can no longer hold back.] [The half-Dao level war finally breaks out.] [Saint realm experts be mere spectators, no longer able to determine the course of the war.] [Thus, the Saint realm takes a break from fighting.] [They all wait for the half-Dao level experts to decide the oue!] [This is information you did not obtain in your previous simtions.] [You deeply remember it.] [As for the subsequent half-Dao level war, your current strength is insufficient; you did not observe it.] [Unknowingly, hundreds of thousands of years pass again.] [One day, the Saint realm experts of the Immortal Realmunch another assault on the Demon God Realm!] [You witness the copse of the Demon God Realm; numerous demon ns perish; only a few escape to other realms, their whereabouts unknown!] [The Immortal Realm obtains fragments of the Heavenly Dao from the entire Demon God Realm.] [After this, the strength of the Immortal Realm skyrockets.] [Subsequently, you witness the Immortal Realmunching attacks on other realms again.] [Then, one realm after another is defeated by the Immortal Realm, and their Heavenly Dao is plundered.] [However, no half-Dao level experts ever appear again.] [You look at this situation and can''t help but mutter to yourself.] ["Why don''t these realms have half-Dao level experts stepping forward to stop the copse of their own realms?"] ["Could it be that after seeing the Immortal Realm''s half-Dao level experts defeat the Demon God Realm''s half-Dao level experts, they are all afraid?"] [This mystery, for now, no one can answer for you, you can only explore it yourself.] [As one realm after another copses, the number of Saint realm experts in the Immortal Realm increases; their strength grows stronger!] [The Immortal Realm is no longer satisfied with attacking a single realm.] [They begin to divide their forces and open multiple battlefronts!] [You witness one realm after another struggling to survive under the Immortal Realm''s attacks, until they are destroyed.] [Without exception, no half-Dao level experts appear in any realm.] [Time unknowingly advances to thirty million years ago in the real world!] [One day, you see the Immortal Realm making a move against the Nine Mystic Realm.] [A great battle begins, and the Nine Mystic Realm is considered one of the strongest among the various realms!] [Even though the Immortal Realm is formidable, the other side is fighting on multiple fronts; for a time, both sides are evenly matched!] [Time passes over ten million years.] [The Nine Mystic Realm and the Immortal Realm both suffer heavy casualties.] [But it is at this moment that the Immortal Realm transfers arge number of experts from other battlefields again.] [The Nine Mystic Realm finally can''t hold on.] [A war with no chance of victory causes many Saint realm experts to start fearing battle!] [However, they do not surrender but instead return to their sects, hoping to ask those half-Dao level ancestors toe out of seclusion!] [But the turning point urs at this moment.] Chapter 316: Jiang Fushan returns! When those Saint realm experts returned to their respective sects and families to seek their ancestors, they found that their ancestors had vanished. All half-Dao level experts disappeared collectively! Most left messages saying "Do not search," while a few left nothing at all. For a time, the Saints of the Nine Mystic Realm were in a panic. They didn''t know what had happened to the half-Dao level ancestors. Yet, the threat from the Immortal Realm was imminent. Gradually, some in the Nine Mystic Realm began to surrender. And as time passed, more and more Saint realm experts joined the Immortal Realm. Unknowingly, time had moved to over ten million years ago in reality.One day, as the Immortal Realm was attacking the Nine Mystic Realm, a man and a woman appeared! They were none other than your father Jiang Fushan and your mother Su Mushuang. After disappearing for over a hundred million years, they reappeared. Upon their return, they instantly suppressed all the Saint realm experts. They dered that no Saint realm expert should start a war again! With their intervention, the Saint experts of the Immortal Realm had to halt their invasion. The war among the Saints stopped, but the battles below the Saint realm continued. Without the intervention of Saint realm experts, it was nearly impossible to seize the Heavenly Dao. The subsequent wars were more about hatred. However,pared to before, the world experienced a brief peace! In reality. Jiang Yifeng frowned slightly as he read this. The undercurrents are surging! Why did the half-Dao level experts disappear collectively? Could it be that, like in this simtion, his father Jiang Fushan and the others went somewhere over a hundred million years ago? And now his father Jiang Fushan has appeared? Did the half-Dao level experts who disappeared with them also return? Jiang Yifeng thought that some of them must have returned. Otherwise, why could he find some half-Dao level experts in a regr simtion? Perhaps this is also why the Saint realm experts of the Immortal Realm didn''t dare to invade recklessly after his parents disappeared. Because besides his father Jiang Fushan and mother Su Mushuang, other half-Dao level experts had returned. As for the subsequent wars? Perhaps they found that other half-Dao level experts simply didn''t care? That''s possible! Of course, a bigger possibility is that even if other half-Dao level experts returned, they might have been injured like his father Jiang Fushan. They were too busy taking care of themselves to deal with the people of the Immortal Realm. That''s why inter regr simtions, the Saint experts of the Immortal Realm started wars again? Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng sighed. "Indeed, you can''t just listen to hearsay!" In previous simtions, he learned a lot about the Immortal Realm''s invasion and the temporary ceasefire. It seemed reasonable. But after the simtion, he found there were still some differences. For instance, previously it was said that the people of the Immortal Realm feared the lingering power of his parents and didn''t dare to act against the Southern Regions. But now it seems there might also be an element of fearing other half-Dao level experts. Besides these, Jiang Yifeng also thought about it. Those Saint realm experts from the Immortal Realm dared to attack various realms so recklessly. Could it be that the half-Dao level experts from the Immortal Realm also left? It''s just that the Immortal Realm discovered this earlier. So they spected that other realms were the same. That''s why they dared to be so arrogant? Relying on having more Saint realm experts, they invaded several realms at once? After all, through previous deep simtions, Jiang Yifeng also knew that the half-Dao level experts of the Immortal Realmmunicated more with their Saint juniors. People from the Immortal Realm were indeed more likely to discover this. Thinking this way, everything made sense. Of course, these are all secondary. Jiang Yifeng now wants to know more about where those half-Dao level experts went. Why did they suddenly return? In previous simtions, he also asked his father about his past life''s information. But at that time, his father never mentioned leaving the Nine Mystic Realm over a hundred million years ago. Right! Jiang Yifeng remembered that in a previous simtion, his father Jiang Fushan mentioned that he was healing when the Immortal Realm invaded. Could it be that over a hundred million years ago, his father and the others went somewhere to participate in a battle? And then got injured? ording to his father''s previous simtion statement, he forgot the memories of being injured because of reincarnation. Perhaps that was the time they left the Nine Mystic Realm over a hundred million years ago! Could there be another war somewhere? And during this Immortal Realm invasion of various realms, did those half-Dao level experts disappear for the same reason? Did those half-Dao level experts also go to participate in another war? A war more serious than the Immortal Realm invasion? Of course, these are just Jiang Yifeng''s more reliable guesses. Besides this guess. Jiang Yifeng also thought. Could there be a mastermind behind the scenes? Is there someone controlling all the experts above the half-Dao level? But if it was to control, why do it in batches? This is also why Jiang Yifeng thinks this possibility is rtively small. After thinking for a long time, he couldn''te to a definite conclusion. Also, why did his father return at this time?N?v(el)B\\jnn If there was a war somewhere? Did they win? Is that why they returned? Or is it for other reasons? Wait... Jiang Yifeng felt his head was getting a bit overwhelmed. Finally, he sighed. "Ah, it''s still because this simtion''s power is too weak!" If this simtion had been at his peak strength to observe, he would have discovered many issues. With only a six-star Ancient God realm strength in the simtion, he could observe those half-Dao level experts at times. But if they wanted to hide, with his strength in the simtion, it was like being blindfolded, knowing nothing. Shaking his head, Jiang Yifeng stopped thinking about it. He continued to watch the simtor. Afterward, you saw your father Jiang Fushan suppress many Saint experts from the Immortal Realm. Those people were the ones who hadmitted the most evil against the Nine Mystic Realm. Originally, Jiang Fushan intended to kill them. But after hesitating for a long time, he only branded them with ve marks. And named them Immortal One, Immortal Two... Immortal Thirteen! It''s worth mentioning that after your father Jiang Fushan returned, Bai Moyu appeared. This guy, who had been hiding, frequently sought out your father Jiang Fushan to "tter" him! Time passed, and unknowingly, hundreds of thousands of years went by. One day, while your father was resting, he coughed up a mouthful of ck blood! You stood beside him, anxious, but you were invisible and couldn''t do anything. Soon, your father and mother announced they would return to the Southern Regions of the Nine Mystic Realm to go into seclusion. Hearing this, the people of the Immortal Realm were secretly delighted. During this time, with your father in the Immortal Realm, the Saint experts of the Immortal Realm were terrified! They were worried about ending up like Immortal One, Immortal Two... Immortal Thirteen, branded with ve marks. Currently, they hadn''t noticed your father''s injury; they just wanted to send him away as soon as possible. For this, the Immortal Realm even held a grand farewell ceremony for your father! Chapter 317: Indeed, theyre all thousand-year-old foxes! [You quietly followed your father, Jiang Fushan, and your mother, Su Mushuang, back to the Southern Regions!] [Not long after, your father, Jiang Fushan, due to old injuries, entered a long period of seclusion.] [In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of years passed.] [During your father''s seclusion, Bai Moyu attempted multiple times to visit him!] [He hoped your father, Jiang Fushan, would intervene to halt the wars below the Saint realm between the Immortal Realm and the Nine Mystic Realm.] [Indeed, while the battles at the Saint realm level had calmed, the wars below that level never ceased!] [Unfortunately, Bai Moyu always returned empty-handed.] [Every time, he was turned away by Su Mushuang!] [It must be said, although Bai Moyu is cowardly and afraid of death, his intentions are good!][He doesn''t want the cultivators below the Saint realm in the Nine Mystic Realm to be trapped in endless wars.] [More importantly, he doesn''t want his stubborn disciple, Guo Qing, to get into trouble.] [However, he is unaware of your father Jiang Fushan''s current situation.] [He mistakenly believes it''s because he hasn''t "ttered" enough!] [Thus, your father Jiang Fushan refuses to see him and is unwilling to intervene.] [So, Bai Moyu had a sudden inspiration; he nned to set up a massive protective formation in the Southern Regions.] [Although he knew this formation was useless against someone of your father''s half-Dao level peak, it was a gesture of sincerity!] [What he wanted to express was his goodwill.] [Whether it was useful or not, in Bai Moyu''s view, was not important.] [He believed that a strong figure like your father, Jiang Fushan, cared more about appearances and gestures!] [It must be said; Bai Moyu truly understands the "Dao of ttery"!] [With the n in mind, Bai Moyu immediately took action.] [Decadester, a Quasi-Saint level protective formation enveloping the entire Southern Regions slowly rose.] [However, less than a century after the formation waspleted,] [Bai Moyu hadn''t even gone to im credit from your father!] [A Saint realm expert from the Immortal Realm descended.] [They imed that their superior strength made them better suited to protect your father, Jiang Fushan, during his seclusion.] [Initially, Bai Moyu was unwilling to hand over the formation.] [After all, it was his masterpiece of "ttery"!] [Helplessly, in the end, the Saints from the Immortal Realm threatened and intimidated Bai Moyu; outnumbered, he had no choice but to hand over the core of the Southern Regions'' formation.] [In fact, this struggle for the Southern Regions'' formation was a test by the Saints of the Immortal Realm on your father, Jiang Fushan.] [Everyone knew Bai Moyu was your father''s "tterer"; bullying Bai Moyu was undoubtedly a p in your father''s face.] [For the Saints of the Immortal Realm, this was a risky move.] [However, they had received news that a half-Dao level expert who returned around the same time as your father had suddenly fallen!] [Suspected to be due to the eruption of old injuries.] [Your father''s sudden decision to enter seclusion,bined with the information about other half-Dao level experts falling due to old injuries; all of this together.] [Made the Saints of the Immortal Realm suspicious of your father, Jiang Fushan''s situation.] [Thus, they decided to test him.] [Although this test might offend your father, Jiang Fushan,] [In the eyes of the Saints from the Immortal Realm, your father is now the biggest obstacle to them seizing the Heavenly Dao and enhancing their strength.] [As long as they could confirm that your father, Jiang Fushan, had issues, they would have the opportunity tounch arge-scale invasion n again.] [They were willing to take this risk.] [After all, seizing the formation from Bai Moyu, theckey, wouldn''tpletely offend your father; there was room for maneuver.] [For now, Bai Moyu was unaware of all this.] [But he wasn''t a fool.] [Seeing the people from the Immortal Realm acting so arrogantly in the Southern Regions, and your father, Jiang Fushan, not appearing,] [Bai Moyu began to have some suspicions.] [So he decisively ran back to the Southern Regions to hide.] [Meanwhile, the people from the Immortal Realm, after seizing the Southern Regions'' formation, noticed your father, Jiang Fushan, had no reaction.] [This deepened the Saints'' suspicions.] [Some radicals even believed your father, Jiang Fushan, was dead.] [However, theyter discovered that the ve marks on "Immortal One" to "Immortal Thirteen," whom your father had previously subdued, were still intact and hadn''t disappeared!] [This temporarily quelled the Saints'' ns to invade the Nine Mystic Realm and seize the Heavenly Dao again.] [However, they also noticed that although the ve marks on Immortal One to Immortal Thirteen hadn''t disappeared, their freedom had indeed increased.] [This seemed to prove that although your father, Jiang Fushan, wasn''t dead, he indeed had issues.] [After some discussion, the Saints of the Immortal Realm decided to continue testing your father, Jiang Fushan.] [Afterward, the Immortal Realm began sending people every few decades tounch thunder penalties on the cultivators in the Southern Regions.] [In the minds of the Saints from the Immortal Realm, this n had three possible oues!] [First, your father is severely injured and never appears!] [In that case, they would continue to increase the intensity.] [Until they eventually destroyed the Southern Regions.] [Second, your father, Jiang Fushan, appears to stop them, but his strength has greatly diminished!] [If so, the Saints from the Immortal Realm would judge based on the situation.] [Consider whether they could risk a direct kill?] [If they estimated they couldn''t seed, they could at least interrupt your father, Jiang Fushan''s recovery.] [Possibly worsening his injuries.] [As for your father, Jiang Fushan, seeking revenge?] [They had already thought of a perfect excuse.] [They would im the heavenly thunder was merely training for the cultivators of the Southern Regions.] [The Immortal Realm was doing this to produce more Chosen in the Southern Regions.] [After all, there was a rationale for using heavenly thunder to temper the body in cultivation.]n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om [Third, your father, Jiang Fushan, appears and is still as formidable as ever.] [If that''s the case?] [They could still im the heavenly thunder was training for the Chosen of the Southern Regions.] [The Saints from the Immortal Realm had a rather perfect n!] [Of course, this n was perfect because they knew your father wasn''t a bloodthirsty person.] [As long as they controlled the scale, at most, they would end up like Immortal One to Immortal Thirteen, marked as ves and bing your father''s servants.] [This was a risk they were willing to take.] In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this and sighed in his heart! "Indeed, they''re all thousand-year-old foxes!" The Saints of the Immortal Realm were no fools. It turned out they had their reasons. Previously, Jiang Yifeng hadn''t thought that the people from the Immortal Realm could use Immortal One to Immortal Thirteen to gauge his father, Jiang Fushan''s condition. Now, seeing the simtion say this, Everything became clear. Chapter 318: Guo Qing, a benefactor of the Southern Regions! In the Immortal Realm, the Saints deduced through the ve marks on those controlled by his father, Jiang Fushan, that something had happened to him, but he wasn''t dead. That''s why they used Heavenly Thunder to attack the cultivators of the Southern Regions. Moreover, the disy in this simtion showed that the n of the Saints in the Immortal Realm was indeed quite good. They could advance or retreat as needed! The risk they took wasn''t too great. However, Jiang Yifeng was pondering whether his father, Jiang Fushan, had deliberately spared Immortal One... Immortal Thirteen back then. Did he nt ve marks on them? Could it be that his father hadid this trap early on? Could it be that when his father returned, he was severely injured?Was the suppression of all Saint-level powerhouses just a bluff? If the opponent really fought desperately, was there no guarantee of victory? So, did he subdue Immortal One, Immortal Two... Immortal Thirteen in stages? Was the purpose to show the Saints of the Immortal Realm? To make them specte about his condition because of these people? To make the Saints in the Immortal Realm hesitate to act rashly? Was it actually to buy time? To give him a chance for reincarnation and re-cultivation? The more he thought about it, the more Jiang Yifeng felt this was likely. If not, ording tomon sense, Immortal One... Immortal Thirteen should have been taken back to the Southern Regions by his father, Jiang Fushan, to protect him! Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng smiled slightly. It seemed he had misunderstood his father before. In previous simtions, he always thought his father, Jiang Fushan, was just a hot-blooded brute. Now it seemed that wasn''t the case. His father, Jiang Fushan, indeed had some tricks up his sleeve. Brutishness appeared to be just his father''s outward demeanor! Afterward, Jiang Yifeng stopped thinking about it. He continued to look at the simtor. [After the Saints in the Immortal Realm made their ns, they began to gradually send Immortal Lords of the Golden Immortal level to execute them.] [Initially, those dispatched Immortal Lords were very cautious, not daring to unleash too strong Heavenly Thunder attacks on the cultivators of the Southern Regions.] [It seemed to be a kind of training for the cultivators of the Southern Regions.] [Under such circumstances, although the cultivators of the Southern Regions were miserable, there were no casualties!] [Instead, some Chosen ones emerged.] [In the same realm, most of these people surpassed the older generation.] [However, good times didn''tst long.] [As time passed, the power of the Heavenly Thunder released by those from the Immortal Realm gradually increased.] [Gradually, some cultivators from the Southern Regions with insufficient foundations began to die under the Heavenly Thunder.] [For a time, many cultivators began to flee, trying to escape the Southern Regions.] [But when these cultivators reached the edge of the Southern Regions, they found they couldn''t leave at all.] [They were trapped within the Southern Regions.] [It''s worth mentioning that the formation in the Southern Regions was actually only at the peak of the Quasi-Saint level.] [If there were arge number of powerhouses at the Great Principal Golden Immortal level, it could be forcibly broken.] [However, due to the ongoing war between the Immortal Realm and the Nine Mystic Realm below the Saint realm,] [The powerhouses of the Southern Regions had long gone out to support.]n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om [At this time, where could a group of Great Principal Golden Immortal level powerhousese from within the Southern Regions?] [As for seeking help from outsiders?] [It''s also unlikely!] [The powerhouses of the Nine Mystic Realm outside the Southern Regions were at a disadvantage in their battles with the people of the Immortal Realm; they could barely take care of themselves.] [Moreover, everyone believed that your father, Jiang Fushan, was in seclusion in the Southern Regions, thinking it was the safest ce.] [They wouldn''t deliberatelye to check the situation!] [Now, the only person in the Nine Mystic Realm who knew about the situation in the Southern Regions might be Bai Moyu.] [Unfortunately, Bai Moyu was too timid.] [He had already guessed that your father might have had a problem, and he didn''t dare to show himself at all!] [In the blink of an eye, nearly a million years passed.] [Time came to around ten million years ago in the real world.] [One day, the severely injured and dying Guo Qing arrived in the Southern Regions.] [His physical body was destroyed, and he didn''t want to go back and implicate his timid master, Bai Moyu.] [So, he wanted to reshape his physical body in the Southern Regions.] [In his view, the Southern Regions were still the safest ce.] [Not only was there the protective formation set up by his master, but also your father, Jiang Fushan, a peak half-Dao level powerhouse, was stationed there.] [However, decadester, he realized how absurdly wrong his idea was.] [The constant harassment of Heavenly Thunder made it impossible to peacefully reshape his physical body.] [He wanted to rush out of the Southern Regions and kill the Immortal n members releasing the Heavenly Thunder.] [Unfortunately, he couldn''t get out either.] [The current formation in the Southern Regions had no cracks; it was a formation that only allowed entry, not exit.] [To get out, the formation had to be shattered.] [In his current state as a mere remnant soul, Guo Qing didn''t have that strength.] [Guo Qing''s situation was also known to Bai Moyu.] [For the first time, he stepped out of his Bronze Gate, heading towards the Southern Regions with Bai Ruoxue.] [Wanting to rescue Guo Qing.] [Unfortunately, as soon as he appeared, he was blocked by the Saint-level powerhouses from the Immortal Realm.] [Quasi-Saint Bai Ruoxue wanted to fight desperately; however, Bai Moyu ultimately chickened out!] [Without any chance of victory, how could he, a Saint realm, and his daughter Bai Ruoxue, a Quasi-Saint, possibly be opponents for the many Saint realm powerhouses of the Immortal Realm?] [Fighting now wouldn''t save Guo Qing and would even cost Bai Ruoxue, and possibly himself.] [Bai Moyu just took one look at the Southern Regions and decisively fled with Bai Ruoxue.] [After this, Bai Moyu, fearing Bai Ruoxue would do something foolish, sealed her memory and cultivation.] [And hid with her inside the underground Bronze Gate of the Celestial Verdant Sect.] [As for Guo Qing?] [Knowing that reshaping his physical body was hopeless,] [He left numerous cultivation secret realms throughout the Southern Regions, hoping to leave a legacy.] [Afterpleting everything, Guo Qingughed heartily, merging his remnant soul into his sword, bing a Sword Spirit.] [He only hoped that one day he could fight the Immortal n again as a Sword Spirit.] [The ce where he became the Sword Spirit of the Heavenly Profound Sword also became his most important legacy site!] [Although you only reached the Six-star Ancient God realm in this simtion, you had the strength to rival a Quasi-Saint.] [You could still observe everything happening in the Southern Regions.] [You saw it all with your own eyes.] [Of course, as an invisible person now, you could only watch and couldn''t change anything.] [Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, millions of years went by.] [At this time in the Southern Regions, the power of the Heavenly Thunder, which struck every few decades, had be terrifying.] [Although it wasn''t necessarily fatal,] [The number of people who could withstand it was dwindling.] [The few Chosen who managed to withstand a wave were essentially crippled.] [Gradually, the number of cultivators in the Southern Regions dwindled!] [Those who could break through to the Immortal realm were almost nonexistent.] [The Southern Regions almost truly became and of mortals.] [Fortunately, Guo Qing left many legacies, scattered across the Southern Regions.] [This prevented the path of cultivation in the Southern Regions from beingpletely severed.] [Seeing this situation, you couldn''t help but murmur, "Guo Qing, the benefactor of the cultivators in the Southern Regions!"] Chapter 319: Who intervened? "You must know, the Southern Regions currentlyck powerful cultivators; they''ve all gone to support battles outside the Southern Regions." "And those remaining low-level cultivators can''t even protect themselves when struck by Heavenly Thunder, so it''s basically impossible for them to leave any legacy." "If it weren''t for Guo Qing leaving behind so many legacies, perhaps the path of cultivation in the Southern Regions would truly be severed." "Of course, if powerful cultivators from outside the Southern Regions return, they might reconnect the path of cultivation." "But that hasn''t happened, has it?" "In the blink of an eye, many years have passed." "Time has moved to five million years ago." "One day, your Divine Sense observed two young men approaching the ce where Guo Qing left his sword." "That is, the Evergreen Mountain Range,ter known as the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple.""Unsurprisingly, the two young men, by chance, obtained Guo Qing''s legacy." "The two of them began cultivating together in thisnd of legacy!" "Their cultivation speed was incredibly fast." "Three days for Qi Refining, one month for Foundation Establishment!" "Half a yearter, they had already reached Perfect Foundation Establishment and began refining a pseudo-Golden Core, preparing for the breakthrough to Core Formation." "Seeing this situation, you raised an eyebrow, bing extremely interested in these two." "In an instant, you arrived at their location to observe them up close." "You used the Chaos Heavy Pupil on them." "Mo Jingtian: Supreme Divine Body; (the strongest physique for cultivating both Martial Dao and Divine Dao)" "Summary: A peerless genius of the current era!" "Lu Wuya: Innate Formation Body; (an innate affinity for formations; terrifying buffs for cultivation advancement in the early stages.)" "Summary: A peerless genius of the current era!" "Seeing the information on the two, you smiled slightly and murmured, ''As expected, it''s them!''" "In the blink of an eye, three years passed!" "One day, Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya had both refined Ten-Grade Golden Cores and were ready to break through to the Core Formation stage." In reality, Jiang Yifeng, who had been lying down, had long since sat up. Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya, these two have always been legends among the cultivators of the Southern Regions. Although their ultimate achievements are unknown, Just the fact that they could break free from the sealednd in the Southern Regions proves their extraordinariness. Now, looking at the situation in the simtion, it also proves this point. These two, viewed with the Chaos Heavy Pupil, are shown to be the Chosen of the current era. Unlike your father Jiang Fushan and Little Peach, who have extraordinary backgrounds. This is their first life. In such circumstances, to refine Ten-Grade Golden Cores in just three short years and now prepare to break through to the Core Formation stage. They are indeed extraordinary! If they were to cultivate the Divine Dao, Jiang Yifeng thinks they would at least start as Supreme Gods. After all, the evaluation of these two by the Chaos Heavy Pupil is much higher than that of Er Bao back then. It''s just a pity that they were born in the wrong era. Once the foundation is missed, it''s hard to catch up in the future; the hope is slim! Even if they cultivate the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao in the future, to re-tread the path of the Divine Dao. Butpared to the orthodox Divine Dao, there is still a gap. Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but feel a bit regretful for the two of them. Of course, he could only feel regret, unable to help them in any way. After all, in the simtion now, with the one-time talent "Historian" in y, he can''t do anything. Even if he wanted to remind them, they wouldn''t be able to hear him. Jiang Yifeng sighed and continued to look at the simtor. "Just as Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya were about to break through." "A sudden wave of drowsiness hit you." "In a daze, you fell asleep." "When you woke up, it was already three yearster." "You knew for sure that someone had done something to you." "The first thing you did was check your own condition, and only after finding nothing wrong did you breathe a sigh of relief." "Then, you went to observe the situation of Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya." "Your pupils contracted." "They had actually stepped into the Divine Dao; theypleted Core Formation with the Divine Dao!" "You murmured, ''It seems someone intervened.''" "After that, you continued to observe Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya."N?v(el)B\\jnn "In the blink of an eye, decades passed, and Heavenly Thunder descended!" "Lu Wuya hurriedly set upyer uponyer of formations to weaken the power of the Heavenly Thunder." "Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya passed the tribtion without danger." "Time passed year after year." "In the blink of an eye, several thousand years." "Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya had already broken through to the One-Star Ancient God realm." In reality, Jiang Yifeng frowned deeply. Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya ended up cultivating the Divine Dao? And broke through to the One-Star Ancient God realm. This puzzled Jiang Yifeng. Something''s not right, very not right. Logically, cultivating the Divine Dao and breaking through the Core Formation stage would cause a heavenly phenomenon. During this time, there was no Immortal Arrival Sect, and the Immortal Realm wouldn''t always be watching the Southern Regions. Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya being able to break through to the Core Formation stage without incident is understandable. But Jiang Yifeng remembers that breaking through to the One-Star Ancient God realm requires undergoing the chaotic tribtion lightning. Such amotion would definitely be sensed by the Immortal Realm. How did Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya avoid everyone''s attention? For a moment, Jiang Yifeng couldn''t figure it out. After pondering for a long time. He suddenly pped his forehead. "That''s it, someone intervened!" He recalled the simtor showing that he had been asleep for three years. That was clearly someone messing with him. Since the person who intervened could see him using the "Historian" talent in the simtion. Even putting him to sleep. This proves that this person can ignore his red talent. This person''s strength must exceed the Supreme God level. If someone with such strength intervened. Any situation could be possible. But who is this person? Is it his future self? But if it''s his future self? Is it the man in white? Why would he put him to sleep? What is it that he can''t let him know? After all, a man in white had already confided in him before. There''s no need to avoid him again, right? Could it be that the "future self" is not of one mind? Or is the person who intervened this time not the man in white? Not his future self? Then who could it be? The ck-robed man? Impossible. If it were the ck-robed man, an enemy. He wouldn''t just put him to sleep, right! But besides his future self? And the ck-robed man? Who else has such strength? After a long time, Jiang Yifeng thought of someone. "Innate Demon God: Yu!" This person he had a brief encounter with in the simtion ten billion years ago. Back then, he already had the strength of a Supreme God. If after a few billion years, he surpassed the Supreme God level. It doesn''t seem abrupt. Is this person really the Innate Demon God "Yu"? If so, has he also be one of the yers? Or is he coborating with the ck-robed man? Or his future self? Without clues to support, all spection can only stop here. Chapter 320: From here, break the heavens! After a long while, Jiang Yifeng chuckled softly. "How interesting!" Although things were bing increasinglyplicated, it seemed that those behind the scenes were gradually surfacing one by one! Afterward, he didn''t dwell on this issue any further. Instead, he pondered what the fate of Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya would be in the end. Since someone had intervened, Jiang Yifeng had reason to believe that neither of them had died. Perhaps they had just left this world? Jiang Yifeng had previously spected that there was a ce hidden away, harboring many people. Perhaps Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya had gone there as well. "Right!" Jiang Yifeng thought of another issue. In a previous ordinary simtion, it was mentioned that many Chosen had disappeared. Why wasn''t this mentioned in this simtion? Had it not happened? He didn''t think so. It should be that the person who transferred these Chosen was too powerful, and his current simtion strength was insufficient to observe it. Although the simtor sometimes disyed many things beyond his line of sight, it wasn''t absolute. So, the simtor not showing the disappearance of the Chosen seemed reasonable. In the end, Jiang Yifeng could only sigh softly. "Ah, the downside of insufficient strength is that many things in the simtion remain unobservable!"However, he had no solution. He secretly thought to himself: In future cross-time simtions, when encountering uncertain timelines, it''s better to enter with full strength! Then, he continued to look at the simtor. [One day, you saw Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya establishing a sect in the Evergreen Mountain Range, named: Heavenly Profound Sect!] [The name Heavenly Profound Sect was derived from Guo Qing''s Heavenly Profound Sword.] [At this time, the Heavenly Profound Sword was not hidden in the Sumeru Realm but had been obtained by Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya.] [However, Guo Qing''s Sword Spirit had not yet awakened, so Guo Qing was unaware of Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya.] [After establishing the Heavenly Profound Sect, Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya began recruiting disciples.] [However, they did not take on apprentices but rather assumed the role of senior brothers.] [You stayed by their side every day and heard their thoughts.] [They did this to pass on the legacy they had received here, not wanting the legacy that led them to the path to be cut off.] [After all, they were no longer people of the Immortal Dao, having departed from Guo Qing''s legacy.] [One day, the Heavenly Profound Sect finally received its first disciple, who was none other than your old acquaintance, Shen Wutian.] [Shen Wutian had decent talent.] [Although he was somewhat inferior to Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya, he reached the Core Formation stage with a Nine-Grade Golden Core in eight years.] [Afterward, it took him another thousand years to break through to the Immortal realm.] [Besides Shen Wutian, over the years, the Heavenly Profound Sect recruited quite a few disciples.] [Gradually, the Heavenly Profound Sect''s fame soared in the Southern Regions.] [The wandering cultivators of the Southern Regions all knew that there was a rtively safe sect in the Southern Regions, the Heavenly Profound Sect.] [Within this sect, there was a master of formations.] [The formations he set up could significantly weaken the Heavenly Thunder that urred every few decades.] [For a time, the Heavenly Profound Sect became a Holy Land that all cultivators in the Southern Regions yearned for.] [In the blink of an eye, hundreds of thousands of years passed.] [Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya had already broken through to the Golden Immortal realm!] [Of course, this was just what they showed to the outside world.] [Their true strength had already reached the Six-star Ancient God realm.] [One day, Mo Jingtian called out to Lu Wuya with some concern!] ["Wuya, the time for him toe and take us away is approaching!"] ["But after we leave, what will happen to the disciples of the sect? How will they withstand the Heavenly Thunder?"] [Hearing Mo Jingtian''s concern, Lu Wuya furrowed his brow as well.] [He said somewhat uncertainly.] ["Brother Mo, do you think we can ask him to help?"] [Mo Jingtian shook his head and sighed.] ["Such a strong person, if willing to help, wouldn''t need us to ask; if unwilling, our asking would be useless!"] [Hearing Mo Jingtian''s words, Lu Wuya nodded slightly.] [Indeed, that was the case.] [After a long silence, Lu Wuya took out a map of the Southern Regions he had drawn himself and began to study it intently.] [Before long, his brows gradually rxed; he pointed to the location of Spine Mountain and spoke.] ["I''ve got it, Brother Mo!"]N?v(el)B\\jnn ["This ce, though deste, has a terrain structure very suitable for storing Heavenly Thunder."] ["As long as I set up a formation here, it canpletely channel all the Heavenly Thunder into the ground, and our Southern Regions cultivators can stay safe within the formation."] [Lu Wuya was quite confident in his Formation Dao.] [But Mo Jingtian''s brows still carried worry.] [He sighed softly, "Wuya, I trust your skills in formations, but any formation will eventually fail."] [These words left Lu Wuya unable to refute.] [Although he was confident the formation couldst millions of years, what about after that?] [Thinking of this, Lu Wuya''s heart grew heavier.] [After a long time, Mo Jingtian spoke again.] ["Wuya, I want to break through the shell above us and give the cultivators of the Southern Regions a permanent path to survival!"] ["Will you help me?"] [Mo Jingtian''s tone wasn''t passionate, but his words were stirring.] [Hearing this suggestion, Lu Wuya nced at Mo Jingtian and burst intoughter.] ["Between us brothers, there''s no talk of helping or not helping!"] ["Let''s break that shell together."] [The conversation between Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya was known only to three people.] [Themselves, and you, who had been acting as if invisible.] [You witnessed it all.] [At this moment, you finally understood Mo Jingtian''s original intention to break the sealing formation of the Southern Regions.] [They weren''t trying to escape themselves but to pave a way for those who came after.] [Unfortunately, they didn''t know that although they broke a few gaps in the sealing formation, it was still difficult to change the fate of everyone in the Southern Regions.] [Moreover, you also learned that someone wasing to take Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya away.] ["Who could it be?"] [You murmured to yourself, feeling a bit curious.] [In the following time, you personally witnessed Lu Wuya constructing a grand formation to resist Heavenly Thunder at Spine Mountain.] [ording to Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya, this was a backup n. If they couldn''t break the sealing formation of the Southern Regions, this formation would still give the cultivators of the Southern Regions a chance to breathe.] [After several years, Lu Wuyapleted the formation at Spine Mountain.] [Mo Jingtian also finished arranging everything for the sect.] [One day!] [The two of them set off resolutely towards the sealing formation of the Southern Regions.] [This time, they intended to break through the sky above the Southern Regions!] Chapter 321: Truly a good person [You follow closely behind, determined to be the first spectator.] [Perhaps Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya were just unlucky.] [Lu Wuya had just set up a series of formations, and they were about to make a move on the sealing formation of the Southern Regions!] [The Immortal Lord responsible for releasing the Heavenly Thunder happened to start his shift.] [He also discovered the two of them, and in an instant, rolling Heavenly Thunder descended!] [Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya exchanged a nce.] [They both understood that since they had been discovered by the patrolling Immortal Realm personnel, their intention to attack the sealing formation was known.] [If they didn''t act quickly, once the Immortal Lord reported back, they might not have another chance.] [You hear themugh heartily: "Fight!"][The two of them charged towards the sealing formation of the Southern Regions under the cover of Heavenly Thunder,unching an orderly attack.] [Lu Wuya continuously manipted the formations to interfere with the sealing formation of the Southern Regions, creating weak points.] [Mo Jingtian, on the other hand, led the charge, striking the weak points created by Lu Wuya with punch after punch!] ["Boom, boom, boom!" With Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya''s attacks, the sealing formation of the Southern Regions began to show cracks.] [The Immortal Lord from the Immortal Realm broke out in a cold sweat.] [He franticallyined in his heart: "What rotten luck!"] [He hadn''t expected to encounter such a situation during his patrol.] [What should he do now?] [Leave now? Report the situation to his superiors?] [But doing so wouldn''t save him from punishment.] [And if he didn''t report it? If the Southern Regions'' formation really had issues, he''d be done for.] [Now, he could only continuously strengthen the power of the Heavenly Thunder, hoping to shatter Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya''s ns with it.] [Only by protecting the Southern Regions'' formation himself could he remain safe.] [He nced at Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya.] [Fortunately, they both appeared to be at the Golden Immortal realm.] [Their cultivation was on par with his.] [And outside the Southern Regions, he wouldn''t be injured; he just needed to attack with full force!] [He didn''t believe that those two, who could only defend passively, could withstand his relentless full-force attacks.] [No rush, the advantage was his; there was still a chance to turn things around.] [Thus, the Golden Immortal Lord from the Immortal Realm could only continue to strengthen the power of the Heavenly Thunder.] [But as time passed, the Immortal Lord''s expression grew increasingly grim.] [These two were really resilient!] [After much consideration.] [The Immortal Lord stopped using Heavenly Thunder against other cultivators of the Southern Regions; he focused all his efforts on blocking Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya!] [This indeed increased the pressure on Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya significantly.] [However, that was all it did.] [They continued to attack the sealing formation of the Southern Regions relentlessly.] [Meanwhile, the other cultivators of the Southern Regions managed to escape unscathed; they didn''t have to face the life-threatening Heavenly Thunder.] [For a moment, all the cultivators of the Southern Regions felt relieved.] [Of course, they were also puzzled as to why the Heavenly Thunder dissipated so quickly this time.] [This was different from the records!] ["Boom, boom, boom!" Soon, all the cultivators of the Southern Regions heard the resounding thunder.] [They thought the Heavenly Thunder had returned, but after a long time, it hadn''t descended upon them.] [Gradually, they began to hear some news.] [Most of the cultivators in the Southern Regions learned that someone was enduring the Heavenly Thunder and attacking the sealing formation.] [This stirred excitement among the cultivators of the Southern Regions.] [In no time, arge number of Southern Regions cultivators approached the sealing formation, eager to see which brave soul it was!] [However, they only dared to watch from afar, cheering them on; they didn''t dare to get closer.] [Indeed, they only saw one person, and that person was Mo Jingtian; no one saw Lu Wuya.] [Because Lu Wuya was within the formations he had set up.] [He was different from Mo Jingtian; Mo Jingtian''s physical body was stronger, and he was responsible for the frontal assault, so he was exposed.] [Lu Wuya, on the other hand, had a stronger mastery of Formation Dao than his physical body, and he mainly provided support, identifying weak points in the formations.] [Therefore, he wasn''t in the most conspicuous position, and he used formations to defend himself.] [This led the less powerful cultivators of the Southern Regions to believe that only Mo Jingtian was attacking the Southern Regions'' formation.] [And this is why Mo Jingtian''s fame far exceeded that of Lu Wuya.] [Of course, amidst the Heavenly Thunder, there was another invisible person; no one saw you either!] [Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, more than a month had gone by.] [By now, the Immortal Lord releasing the Heavenly Thunder was drenched in sweat, panting heavily, with a look of disbelief in his eyes!] [He couldn''t quiteprehend it.] [He had been attacking with full force, had consumed several restorative pills, and was now nearly exhausted!] [How were those two still energetically attacking the Southern Regions'' formation?] [At this point, he hadn''t considered whether the opponents were concealing their cultivation.] [Of course, it wasn''t really concealment; Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya were just at the Six-star Ancient God realm, which, if converted to the Immortal Dao realm, was indeed only at the Golden Immortal realm.] [But they cultivated the Divine Dao, which naturally made them stronger than Immortal Dao cultivators.] [Moreover, they were Chosen in the Divine Dao, possessing special constitutions.] [They could fight Immortal Dao cultivators a level or two higher, let alone those of the same realm.] [Unfortunately, this Immortal Lord from the Immortal Realm couldn''t understand this.] [However, this Immortal Lord was also quite tenacious.] [He hadn''t given up yet; you saw him take out a few more bottles of pills and swallow them, continuing to release Heavenly Thunder.] [It seemed he was nning to use pills to oust Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya.] [You watched all this, smiling as you murmured, "It''s about to end!"] [Indeed, it was about to end.] [Although the sealing formation of the Southern Regions didn''t appear shattered.] [Anyone who understood formations could see that several formation talismans had been knocked off course, creating vulnerabilities.] [Now, all Lu Wuya needed to do was detonate the formations he had previously set up.] [Then the sealing formation of the Southern Regions would inevitably have several holes.] [You saw Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya exchange a nce, then nod in tacit understanding.] [In an instant, Lu Wuya detonated the formations he had set up earlier.] ["Boom, boom, boom!" The sealing formation of the Southern Regions began to copse.] [In just a few moments, several holes appeared.]N?v(el)B\\jnn [At the same time, Mo Jingtian stepped out, directly reaching the outside of the sealing formation.] [Before the Immortal Lord from the Immortal Realm could react, he was already in front of him.] [Not long after, the Immortal Lord from the Immortal Realm was bloodied in the sky!] [Mo Jingtian was truly a good person; this Immortal Lord no longer had to worry about being punished when he returned to the Immortal Realm.] Chapter 322: Immortal Arrival Sect has just been established! Of course, what Mo Jingtian was thinking was definitely not about "helping" the Immortal Lord of the Immortal Realm resolve his worries. His purpose in killing this Immortal Lord was simply to prevent him from returning to the Immortal Realm to report. After all, the formation had developed cracks, and it would take some time for it to stabilize enough for lower-level cultivators to pass through. After they finished everything, you saw Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya suddenly disappear from where they were. That''s right, they just vanished abruptly. This time you didn''t faint and saw it quite clearly. In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this and just smiled slightly. "Abrupt?" No, it wasn''t abrupt; someone took them away.It''s just that the version of himself in the simtion wasn''t strong enough to see that person, which is why it felt abrupt. Jiang Yifeng couldn''t help but think; the person who took Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya away really didn''t want him to see them. But was there a special reason for this? Or was it simply that they didn''t want to be seen? He shook his head and sighed softly: "I can''t figure it out, I can''t figure it out!" Besides, through this segment of the simtion, Jiang Yifeng also understood why in previous simtions, most people only knew of Mo Jingtian''s legend. There were not many who knew about Lu Wuya. But none of that mattered anymore. Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya didn''t want future generations to remember them. Otherwise, when they performed such a grand act, they wouldn''t have gone alone without notifying anyone. Thinking about their deeds, Jiang Yifeng''s evaluation of Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya was just five words: heroes, true heroes! But that''s all in the past. He didn''t dwell on it. At this moment, he was more curious about the people who would appear next. If his guess was correct. Soon after. A man in white would arrange everything in the Southern Regions. This might be another turning point. ording to his spection, with the copse of the formation in the Southern Regions. Within at most a few decades, people from the Immortal Realm would surely find out, even if they weren''t paying attention. After all, ording to the pattern of Heavenly Thunder. In a few decades, another Immortal Lord would inevitablye here.N?v(el)B\\jnn By then, discovering the destruction of the Southern Regions'' formation, they would surely report it to the Saint realm powerhouses of the Immortal Realm. In that case, it might be the scene seen long ago in the simtion; the scene in the mural observed at Shen Wutian''s ce. A man in white confronting a Saint from the Immortal Realm. Then establishing the Immortal Arrival Sect and arranging the four fierce beasts of the Southern Regions. "Should I do a deep simtion?" Jiang Yifeng murmured to himself. Starting a deep simtion now might reveal whether that man in white is another "future self"! Or perhaps the previously spected Ye Xiaoqing? It might clearly show theyout of the Southern Regions. But it might also reveal nothing. After all, the other party might not tell him. Besides, there''s another possibility! That is, the man in white and the one who took Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya might be the same person. If they are the same, even with a deep simtion, that person probably wouldn''t let him see them. In that case, a deep simtion would be purely a waste. Now, in reality, he has exhausted all resources from the Immortal Arrival Sect. Resources outside the Southern Regions can''t be exchanged for any origin values. Every origin value he has now is very important. Should he use them here? After a long time, Jiang Yifeng shook his head. In the end, he gave up on the idea of a deep simtion. Let things take their course! The simtor will show as much as it can. Origin values should still be used for enhancing strength in the future. So he continued to look at the simtor. After Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya disappeared, you saw several cracks appear in the sealing formation of the Southern Regions. In an instant, arge number of cultivators from the Southern Regions left through those cracks. Seeing this, you shook your head slightly and sighed, "Too hasty!" That''s right, they were too hasty. The formation had developed cracks but hadn''t stabilized yet. These cultivators who rushed into the cracks at the first opportunity not only failed to leave the Southern Regions but almost all perished there. You must know, this was a Quasi-Saint level formation! The copse waves from its cracks were not something most cultivators in the Southern Regions, who hadn''t even reached the Immortal realm, could withstand. After a batch of cultivators died, the people of the Southern Regions became much more cautious. No one dared to rashly attempt to break through the formation cracks anymore, all waiting for the copse waves to calm down. In the blink of an eye, more than thirty years passed. The cracks in the sealing formation of the Southern Regions finally stabilized. The cultivators of the Southern Regions could finally leave. You looked at those Southern Region cultivators preparing to leave and sighed, "Time and fate!" They couldn''t leave. Because you sensed the presence of a Saint realm powerhouse outside the Southern Regions. Clearly, the Saints of the Immortal Realm had learned about the situation with the sealing formation in the Southern Regions. Without surprise, all those cultivators who left the Southern Regions perished! Someone shattered the sealing formation of the Southern Regions, and the Saints felt their dignity was challenged. Moreover, the Saints of the Immortal Realm were eighty percent sure that your father, Jiang Fushan, had encountered problems. So, they acted directly. No, they not only wanted to kill those cultivators fleeing the Southern Regions. They also intended to destroy the Southern Regions entirely. To give your father Jiang Fushan no chance of aeback. That way, no one would stop them from invading other realms and devouring the Heavenly Dao. The Saints of the Immortal Realm thought this way and acted ordingly. You saw an Immortal Realm Saint directly extend a giant hand, intending to destroy the Southern Regions. At this moment, the void fluctuated. A man in white appeared. The entire void fell silent. To those with lower cultivation, it seemed like the man in white was confronting the Immortal Realm Saint outside the Southern Regions. But what you saw was the man in white single-handedly suppressing a group of Saint realm powerhouses from the Immortal Realm. That''s right, it wasn''t just one Saint realm powerhouse from the Immortal Realm outside the Southern Regions, but dozens; most were just hidden in the shadows. Without the corresponding cultivation, they couldn''t be seen at all. Not long after, the man in white restrained his aura and approached those Saints from the Immortal Realm. You didn''t know what they said. But after the man in whitemunicated with those Saints, most of them retreated. Only one remained and came to the Southern Regions. That Saint realm powerhouse, after arriving in the Southern Regions, scanned it with Divine Sense. Then he grabbed Shen Wutian, the highest cultivator in the Southern Regions at the time, and took him away. At this moment, you started shouting at the man in white, hoping he would pay attention to you! Unfortunately, he seemed not to see you at all, flicked his sleeve, and turned to leave. Afterward, the Southern Regions returned to the way it used to be, with Heavenly Thunder descending every few decades, striking those lucky enough to step onto the path of immortality again. As for the surviving cultivators from before? Having witnessed the actions of the Saint realm powerhouses from the Immortal Realm, they dared not easily think of escaping the Southern Regions again. Most of those Southern Region cultivators, along with the disciples of the Heavenly Profound Sect, hid in the formation of Spine Mountain to take refuge. The backup n set by Lu Wuya finally yed its role. In the blink of an eye, a hundred years passed, and Shen Wutian reappeared! At this time, Shen Wutian seemed like a different person. He had be much more gloomy and dark; no longer the spirited person he once was. Returning to the Southern Regions, Shen Wutian quickly established the Immortal Arrival Sect. Soon, Shen Wutian began to purge the cultivators of the Southern Regions. He even started hunting down his former fellow disciples from the Heavenly Profound Sect. Quickly, the cultivators of the Southern Regions were scattered and fled. They began to flee until everyone had escaped to Spine Mountain. Strangely, Shen Wutian did not pursue them further; perhaps out of old affection! Chapter 323: Is there a green grassland on the top of your head? **One day, the man in white reappeared.** **You saw with your own eyes that he set up a Dragon Tomb, dragon eggs, and a Demonic Dragon in the Desert of Death.** **He arranged the killing intent of the White Tiger in the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.** **He released a Demonic Phoenix in the Valley of mes.** **And he locked the Mystic Turtle of the Endless Sea at the crack of the sealing formation.** **After doing all this, the man in white nced in your direction and then vanished.**n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om **Clearly, he could always see you, but he just didn''t want to acknowledge you before!** **After that, you revisited the locations of the four fierce beasts, using the Chaos Heavy Pupil to confirm their origins.** **It was basically consistent with your previous spections.****The Southern Regions returned to normal,pletely bing a forbiddennd for immortals.** **It''s worth mentioning that you discovered Bai Ruoxue visits the Southern Regions every few hundred years from this time onward.** **Each time, she would go to the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple, holding the Heavenly Profound Sword and daydreaming!** **Indeed, although the Heavenly Profound Temple no longer has disciples, it still exists, as does the Heavenly Profound Sword.** **Perhaps it was Shen Wutian''s old sentiments that allowed the Heavenly Profound Sword to be preserved here.** **Time flowed on, and unknowingly tens of thousands of years passed.** **One day, Bai Ruoxue came to the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple in the Southern Regions again.** **This time, Sword Spirit Guo Qing happened to awaken.** **They conversed for a long time, and then the Heavenly Profound Temple disappeared.** **You knew that the Heavenly Profound Temple had been absorbed into the Sumeru Realm.** **After this, Bai Ruoxue''s visits became less frequent.** **After the disappearance of the Heavenly Profound Temple, former disciples of the Heavenly Profound Sect ventured out from Spine Mountain, only to find their original sect gone; they secretly rebuilt a new Heavenly Profound Temple.** **Unfortunately, the good times didn''tst long; the new Heavenly Profound Temple was destroyed by Heavenly Thunder within a few years.** **Afterward, such incidents happened asionally; the Heavenly Profound Temple was rebuilt many times.** **Ultimately, it was always destroyed by Heavenly Thunder.** **Some unlucky people even encountered Heavenly Thunder immediately after rebuilding the Heavenly Profound Temple and died in its ruins.** **In the blink of an eye, time came to a million years ago.** **One day, Shen Wutian discovered an ancient relic by chance.** **After that, he never came out again.** **He only created an avatar to handle affairs outside.** **Everything was developing in an orderly manner towards reality!** **As an invisible person, you couldn''t do anything.** **Over the years, you visited the Immortal Realm and other realms; there was nothing to gain.** **You also went to the ancient relic again to see the door.** **Hmm... you didn''t see the "door"!** **To this, you just smiled slightly.** **It seemed to be within your expectations.** **Afterward, you didn''t wander around anymore; you stayed in the ancient relic, where the "door" was supposed to appear.** **Waiting for the "door" to arrive.** **You became neighbors with Shen Wutian.** In reality, Jiang Yifeng saw this and also smiled. Through the images transmitted to him by a certain man in white, "Jiang Yifeng," he knew that the "door" used the river of time as its coordinate. Since that was the case, it certainly couldn''t be found using coordinates from reality or the simtion. It was likely to appear suddenly at a certain point in time. Now, his simted self was doing this, clearly trying to determine the time of the "door''s" arrival. This was quite good. Anyway, there wasn''t much else worth observing elsewhere. **As an invisible person, you couldn''t cultivate either.** **You spent every day in the ancient relic, staring nkly at the yellow earth.** **Your heart grew increasingly silent, sometimes daydreaming for years.** **In the blink of an eye, a million years passed.** **One day, you felt something in your heart.** **You released your Divine Sense to observe the entire Southern Regions.** **You discovered that your father, Jiang Fushan, had sessfully reincarnated.** **He was reborn into a merchant family in Green Hills City.** **You witnessed your father Jiang Fushan''s growth firsthand.** **He spoke at six months, walked independently at one year, recognized words at three, and by eight, he had read all the books; by ten, he was already helping the Jiang Family manage business.** **Your father was dubbed a prodigy from a young age.** **Is this the advantage of reincarnation?** **Not really, you saw with your own eyes that your mother, Su Mushuang, awakened his intelligence when he was six months old!** **An awakening by a Saint realm expert, even if not a reincarnated expert, would surely be a prodigy.** **Afterward, you saw your father Jiang Fushan take over the Jiang Familypletely at fourteen.** **From then on, the Jiang Family in Green Hills City seemed to be cheating.** **In just a few years, they went from a small city''s merchant to a renowned business in the Great Abyssal Kingdom.** **Uh, no; it was indeed cheating.** **How could the Saint realm Su Mushuang not be considered a cheat!** **At neen, your father Jiang Fushan "identally" met Su Mushuang.** **Unsurprisingly, they fell in love at first sight.** **At twenty, Jiang Fushan and Su Mushuang officially married.** **For this, you even left the ancient relic to witness your parents'' wedding.** In reality, Jiang Yifeng frowned slightly upon seeing this. No, something''s not right. Jiang Yifeng suddenly thought of a question. A question he had always overlooked before. How could a mortal father have children with a Saint realm Su Mushuang? And two at that. Although this world doesn''t have the saying that the higher the realm, the harder it is to have children. The reason high-realm individuals rarely have offspring is that the higher their cultivation, the more they focus on the pursuit of the Dao, and the less they desire children. Moreover, children would be their ties. If they had enemies, it would make them hesitant. So generally, they wouldn''t want children. But the current situation is different from cultivators not wanting offspring. His father Jiang Fushan is now aplete mortal. Mortals and cultivators, especially high-level cultivators; to be precise, are already two different species. A mortal''s cells can''t even enter a cultivator''s body without being killed. This is reproductive istion, right? Could it be that he and his sister Jiang Ruxuan were adopted? Or are they not their father''s biological children? Does his father have a green field on his head? The more Jiang Yifeng thought, the stranger his expression became. He quickly pped his forehead to stop his wild thoughts. "Forget it, let''s continue watching the simtion!" "This simtion should provide the answer." So, he continued to look at the simtor. **Three years passed in the blink of an eye.** **Your father was already twenty-three.** **Married for three years, he still had no offspring; this made your father Jiang Fushan quite embarrassed outside.** **Many people began to gossip behind his back, questioning his capability.** **Although those who gossiped didn''t live to see the next day, thanks to Su Mushuang.** **Yet these rumors still reached your father''s ears.** **For this, your father Jiang Fushan was secretly anxious.** **However, he didn''t express it, instead constantlyforting Su Mushuang.** **He just sought out many doctors, using various excuses to check both his and Su Mushuang''s health.** **It was almost a major check every three days, a minor one every two days.** **Covering one''s ears while stealing a bell, your father''s tactic was brilliant!** **As for Su Mushuang?** **She knew everything in her heart but was helpless; it wasn''t that she didn''t want to have children, but your father and she weren''t even the same species now.** **She wanted to reveal everything, but interfering with a reincarnator''s memory acquisition prematurely had side effects.** **It would cause Jiang Fushan to stop at his past life''s cultivation level.** **Only by recalling the past on his own could he continue his past life''s path.** **This is a supreme rule.** **It''s also a restriction on reincarnators.** Chapter 324: Simulator Compensation: Talent Upgrade Card Su Mushuang didn''t want your father to lose his future, so she couldn''t reveal everything and had to cooperate with him, undergoing various examinations every day. Watching all this, you couldn''t help butugh out loud. In the blink of an eye, two more years passed. One day, Su Mushuang became pregnant. Everything was so unexpected. Jiang Fushan, who knew about the situation, was as excited as a child.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om But Su Mushuang frowned deeply. Could mortals and Saints have children? Well, even if they could!But she was a Saint realm powerhouse, able to clearly perceive every cell in her body. Logically, after every time with Jiang Fushan, she should have been able to know in advance whether she could have a child. But this time, she had no perception of the pregnancy. It wasn''t until her belly swelled that she confirmed she was pregnant. This was too strange. She once suspected that this wasn''t her child, but that someone had tampered with it. However, she had already used her Divine Sense to check the child in her belly. It was indeed her and Jiang Fushan''s bloodline. Eight months passed in the blink of an eye. One day, in the Jiang Family Mansion in Green Hills City, the cry of a baby rang out. At the same time, in the ancient relic where you were, a causal line like a river connected to you. Your figure began to dissipate continuously. This was causality, and also a paradox. In the simtion, when "Jiang Yifeng" was born, your cultivation, which was severelycking, would inevitably cease to exist; a one-time talent ability still couldn''t save you. At thest moment of your dissipation, you saw a golden portal falling into the ancient relic. "Boom," you died! Simtion ended. You can choose two rewards from this simtion. Ding, detected that the host has only one option to choose from in this simtion; aspensation, a temporary talent reward is added. Max-level Comprehension (Talent), Talent Upgrade Card (Compensation) Max-level Comprehension (Talent): Priced at origin values. Talent Upgrade Card (Compensation): Priced at origin values. (Note: This reward can only enhance the host''s existing orange or below orange talents.) Jiang Yifeng looked at the simtor, speechless for a long time. He had imagined many ways the simtion could end. He thought it might be some Hongmeng realm powerhouse taking action. But he still miscalcted. As a result, in this simtion, he still died due to his own causality. Almost the same as thest cross-time simtion. No, even worse! In thest simtion, he at least held on for a while. In this simtion, the world¡¯s "Jiang Yifeng" died right after being born. Truly tragic. But thinking about it carefully, it wasn''t surprising. In thest simtion, he had the peak realm of an Ancient God of Chaos and had mastered the Great Dao of Time... If you really calctedbat power, he probably wouldn''t be much weaker than an ordinary Supreme God. But in this simtion, he was just a six-star Ancient God realm weakling. And this time, the power of causality seemed even greater. Jiang Yifeng estimated that this was also rted to time. Last time, he encountered "himself"; to be precise, it was also a stowaway; it was also him from the previous simtion. But this time, it wasn''t so. The "Jiang Yifeng" born this time was the original body, not the one who crossed over in the previous simtion. Obviously, the causality here was indeed greater. Even a one-time talent couldn''t withstand that powerful causal force and paradox. Jiang Yifeng shook his head and sighed. "What a pity, I still haven''t figured out how Mother Su Mushuang got pregnant with me!" But no matter what, the simtion also said that Su Mushuang checked, and he was indeed her and Father Jiang Fushan''s bloodline. That''s enough. As for other reasons? Perhaps it''s because of his own uniqueness. Jiang Yifeng could only think this way. After all, he was indeed quite special, with the simtor and being his "future self." He didn''t think much further. He focused on the simtion rewards this time. Originally, he thought he could only get one reward this time. To his surprise, the simtor was quite generous this time. It actually added a reward. Not bad, not bad. Without hesitation, he directly chose to redeem the rewards. Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining the red talent Max-level Comprehension, deducting origin values; remaining origin values. Ding, congrattions to the host for obtaining the Talent Upgrade Card; deducting origin values, remaining origin values. This time the rewards didn''t include cultivation, which was quite straightforward. As the simtor''s prompt ended, Jiang Yifeng''s rewards were all collected. At the same time, a line of text appeared in Jiang Yifeng''s mind. [Please choose the talent you wish to upgrade.] He knew this was the Talent Upgrade Card taking effect. Now he needed to make a choice. He had so many talents, which one should he upgrade? Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng opened his personal panel, which he hadn''t looked at for a long time. [Host: Jiang Yifeng.] [Red Talent: Divine Spiritual Root, Heart Lock, Max-level Comprehension.] [Orange Talent: Chaos Heavy Pupil, Heaven Rewards Diligence, Taotie Divine Body, Late Bloomer, Pill Dao Saint Hand, Mortal Domain, Inevitable Enlightenment, Invincible Will!] [Purple Talent: Formation Dao Genius, Yimu Divine Body, Love Saint, Child of Fortune, Random Enlightenment.] [Special Talent: Special Sense of Gate No. 8.] [Divine Dao Cultivation: Peak Ancient God realm of Chaos.] [Secondary Cultivation: Saint-level Formation Master; Saint-level Alchemist!] [Main Cultivation Techniques: Devouring Spirit Art (Immortal Dao), War God Art (Martial Dao)] [Practiced Techniques: Wind Chasing Art (Perfect), Silent Destruction Fist (Beyond Limit), War God Body (Perfect), Sword of Killing Intent (Perfect)...] [Power of the Great Dao: Great Dao of Fire (Peak), Great Dao of Time (Mastery); Great Dao of Space (Entry-level)...] [Law Profound Meaning: True Meaning of the Killing Dao (Perfect), Law of Thunder (Perfect)...] [Possessed Items: Enlightenment Pill (30 pieces); Spirit Stones (numerous)...] [Combat Power Rating in the Same Realm: 8 stars; (Note: Full score is ten stars.)] [Summary: You are a Chosen, even when facing Divine Dao cultivators of the same realm, you have the strength to fight beyond your level!] Jiang Yifeng didn''t look at other information, mainly focusing on the orange talents. When upgrading a talent level, of course, you should choose the one that can be enhanced to the limit. After pondering for a long time, Jiang Yifeng had two options in mind. One was the Chaos Heavy Pupil. Upgrading this talent would definitely allow him to see more information. It would help him discover more things. This would certainly be beneficial to him. After all, the sooner he knows the truth, the more he knows about the enemy or danger, the better prepared he can be. The other was the Taotie Divine Body talent. Now he had the Divine Spiritual Root and Max-level Comprehension, and in terms of cultivation, he justcked a red talent physique. Staring at these two talents for a long time. Jiang Yifeng made his final decision. He softly said, "Upgrade the Chaos Heavy Pupil!" As for why not choose the Taotie Divine Body, which could enhance his strength? That''s because Jiang Yifeng thought that the Taotie Divine Body was a physique that cultivated through eating. After upgrading, it should still be so! Although enhancing through eating was powerful, there must be something to devour. Now, if he wanted to enhance his strength, what should he devour? There was only the Great Dao. But if he devoured the Great Dao, wouldn''t the world be destroyed? What about others? What about his father, Jiang Fushan? As for devouring the Great Dao in the simtion? Based on various simtions before, he knew that reality and simtion were closely rted. Even if he went to the simtion to devour the Great Dao, it might also affect reality. He didn''t want to gamble. After thinking it over, upgrading the Chaos Heavy Pupil was better. It would be beneficial to him and wouldn''t affect others, especially his father, Jiang Fushan. As Jiang Yifeng made his choice, the simtor''s electronic voice sounded. Ding, using the Talent Upgrade Card, Chaos Heavy Pupil upgraded to Hongmeng Eye. Hongmeng Eye: Your eyes are the measure, and the information and origins of all things cannot escape your observation. (Note: Upper limit Hongmeng realm.)
