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 too late!]
[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 too late.]
[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 Clan 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 Clan 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 flaws 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 had come.]
[After all, after observing you for so many years, he already knew that once you restored your cultivation, your strange ability would become 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 Clan member is thinking.]
[At this moment, you have already come 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't completely lost her combat power.]
[As the Immortal Clan member's attack arrives, Little Peach dodges in advance.]
[Dodging the attack, Little Peach knows she can't stay on the defensive.]
[She glances at you, reminding you not to deactivate your talent again, and then flashes 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 place.]
[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.]
[Otherwise, you would also become 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 tribulation and break through.]
[But in the end, you give up.]
[You know that breaking through with the tribulation 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 slain 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 place.]
[It takes a full six months for Little Peach to slowly wake up.]
[Fortunately, during this time, no other Immortal Clan 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 Clan members would come 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 years later, 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 have completely 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 uncommon 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.]
[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 tribulation.
His simulated self didn't know these things.
Jiang Yifeng was contemplating whether to perform a deep simulation to change his simulated self's actions.
However, he was also hesitant.
Although this was a good opportunity.
But the original plan 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 simulation to change his simulated 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 simulator.
[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 had lasted 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 a complicated expression.]
[Her lips moved slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, she didn't speak.]
[Soon, several Saint realm experts landed not far from the woman in purple.]
[They looked vigilant, 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 to launch 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 simulated 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 simulation, should he abandon his emotions in the simulation?
If he was so afraid of death in the simulation, 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 flash of inspiration.
He silently chanted to himself, "Activate deep simulation for three days!"
[Ding: Activating deep simulation for three days, deducting 72 origin values, remaining origin values...]
In an instant, Jiang Yifeng appeared within the simulation.
He glanced at the distant void where a fierce battle was taking place.
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 simulation.
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 simulation not to charge in recklessly but because he had a plan.
He glanced 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 tribulation.
In fact, this was a decision Jiang Yifeng had made when he decided to enter the deep simulation.
He knew that his current strength couldn't change the situation within the simulation.
But he could complicate matters.
After all, in his last simulation, his tribulation had attracted Immortal Thirteen, a Saint realm expert.
So who would come this time when he broke through?
Would it be Immortal Thirteen again? Or perhaps more Saint realm experts?
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 tribulation, 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 more complicated.
Of course, they might also ignore him for now, kill his parents first, and then come 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 outcome of this variable, whether it would be good or bad?
That would depend on fate.
Jiang Yifeng could already foresee his own end.
This simulation was about to end.
He had abandoned his previous plan for a stable breakthrough.
According to the previous plan, he would have cultivated Little Peach to the Saint realm, then found a hidden place to protect him during his breakthrough.
That way, there was a high chance for a stable breakthrough.
After all, in the previous simulation, 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 success rate of the breakthrough could be as high as ninety 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 simulation to improve steadily was the best choice.
But if he was still hesitant in the simulation, 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 simulation, even if he died, it would only end the simulation 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 simulation 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 simulation.
He would think about waiting a bit longer, developing a bit more.
But there would always be stronger opponents, and tomorrow would come 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 simulation, 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 success, and it might even resolve his father's crisis.
At the moment Jiang Yifeng's aura erupted.
Thunder roared in the chaos.
Countless tribulation clouds descended from the chaos to the Western Regions of the Nine Mystic Realm.
Soon, bolts of tribulation lightning struck Jiang Yifeng.
He officially began his tribulation 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 tribulation, 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 tribulation lightning for over ten minutes.
At this moment, the tribulation 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 too late.
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 too late.
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, come 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 tribulation, 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 tribulation and complete 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 tribulation 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 the last simulation, it had actually shown that Immortal Thirteen believed their full-scale battle would affect the chaotic tribulation 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 tribulation lightning was already a special case.
If not for the sheer strength of his tribulation, 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 tribulation 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 tribulation lightning followed them.
His breakthrough had not been interrupted and continued.
Everything seemed to be moving in a positive direction.
After placing 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 tribulation 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 the last simulation, 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 tribulation 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.
After completing 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 simulator's warning sounded in Jiang Yifeng's ear!
[Ding, danger, danger! Host, self-destruct immediately, self-destruct immediately!]
"WTF?"
Hearing the simulator'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 simulator warned him so urgently, Jiang Yifeng didn't dare to delay.
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?"
"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 simulator 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 simulation has ended.]
[In this simulation, 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
Jiang Yifeng looked at the rewards on the simulator, feeling a bit conflicted.
These... are all too good!
The talent of Inevitable Enlightenment accelerates all kinds of comprehension, 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 supreme law, even at the entry level, it's extraordinary!
And Divine Dao Cultivation, a One-Star Ancient God—this should correspond to the Mortal Immortal realm!
He had simulated several times to break through.
Now that he finally succeeded, how could he not choose?
Quickly, Jiang Yifeng made his decision.
He was more inclined towards talent and cultivation.
After all, based on the simulation, 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, according 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, "Simulator, block any disturbances that might be caused by my breakthrough. Deduct the origin values as needed!"
Jiang Yifeng hadn't forgotten that in the simulation, his breakthrough had attracted chaotic tribulation lightning and a Saint realm expert.
In reality, he would definitely need the simulator's help to conceal it immediately.
As for whether the simulator could do this?
Jiang Yifeng believed it could.
After all, it had done similar things before!
As for deducting origin values? No worries, he had plenty!
[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining Inevitable Enlightenment (Talent), deducting 1000 origin values, remaining origin values.]
Instantly, the talent was successfully extracted.
But the Divine Dao Cultivation wasn't directly given to Jiang Yifeng by the simulator.
Instead, a peculiar prompt sounded.
[Ding, there are two options for blocking the chaotic tribulation lightning. Which one does the host choose?]
[1. Directly block the tribulation and elevate the realm. (Advantages: cheap and quick; Disadvantages: low combat power, low upper limit!)]
[2. Guide the chaotic tribulation lightning for internal tribulation crossing, also undetectable. (Advantages: strong combat power; Disadvantages: a bit expensive.)]
Jiang Yifeng never expected that the simulator could not only block the tribulation but also offer two choices!
Although it seemed true that breaking through without the tribulation would result in lower combat power due to the lack of body tempering.
However, Jiang Yifeng felt that the simulator 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 tribulation lightning for internal tribulation crossing.
As for the cheaper option with low upper limits and combat power, only a fool would choose that!
After making his choice, the simulator's voice immediately sounded.
[Choice successful, 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 simulator'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 simulator.
Jiang Yifeng didn't know that each time cultivation was extracted, his body underwent a series of tempering.
It was just that the simulator blocked a lot of the pain for him.
But this time was different.
Even with the simulator's large-scale pain blocking, guiding the chaotic tribulation lightning within his body for tempering was like placing his internal organs under the tribulation.
This was actually more terrifying and painful than directly crossing the tribulation.
If it weren't for the simulator 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 simulator.
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 tribulation 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 cultivation complete, 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.
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 simulations, 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, according to previous explanations, 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 accelerate his cultivation after stepping into the Ancient God realm.
According to Jiang Yifeng's thoughts, there might not be a pure Divine Dao cultivation method.
Chapter 169: Simulator 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 play 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 occurring 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 to lacking 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 simulator 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 simulator.
After a brief rest, Jiang Yifeng began to recall the information he had gained from this simulation.
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 simulator!"
After Jiang Yifeng's cultivation breakthrough, the simulator had already met the upgrade conditions.
This was also one of the main reasons he insisted on choosing Divine Dao cultivation.
[Ding, the simulator has been upgraded to version 6.0, deducting 10 million origin values, remaining origin values.]
[Setting Modification 1: Simulation 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 simulation enabled. (Three simulation opportunities can be exchanged for one cross-time-space simulation.)]
(Cross-time-space simulation: The host can designate a timeline and randomly obtain a new identity for simulation.)
[Setting Modification 4: Optimized host's personal panel!]
...
After reading the simulator'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 simulation.
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.
The last tip was also clear, referencing one-time talents.
Based on the simulations 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 simulation 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 occurred.
[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 Accomplishment), Silent Destruction Fist (Minor Accomplishment).]
[Laws and Mysteries: True Meaning of the Killing Dao (Great Accomplishment), Law of Thunder (Entry), Law of Wind (Entry).]
[Possessions: None.] (Note: Ordinary cultivation items and already cultivated techniques are no longer displayed)
[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; but compared 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 simulation panel's optimization.
It just categorized talents and no longer displayed 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.
But facing Divine Dao experts in the same realm, he certainly wasn't strong.
However, so what? He would catch up slowly.
Jiang Yifeng glanced at the sky outside; it was still early.
Since that was the case.
Jiang Yifeng decided to continue the simulation.
After all, he had accumulated three simulation opportunities before.
Now, there were still two left.
Given his current strength, he wasn't ready to experience the cross-time-space simulation.
So, he silently chanted, "Start simulation!"
[Consuming one simulation 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.]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the red talent: Calamity Tribulation Body!]
[Calamity Tribulation Body]: An upgraded version of the Calamity Physique, wherever you are, terrifying tribulations will inevitably occur. (Note: Cherish it while you can!)
[Ding, congratulations 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 expression complicated.
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 Calamity Physique almost made him a source of chaos.
Everyone avoided him like the plague.
Now, this enhanced version, the red Calamity Tribulation 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 simulation ended in a death so complete 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 simulator 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 out later.
While Jiang Yifeng was pondering the talent's use, the simulator'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 simulation, 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 planned to carry it.
After all, drawing the Calamity Tribulation 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 a commotion, some powerful figure would directly kill him!
But he suddenly remembered that in a previous simulation, 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!
So he thought it would be better not to carry Absolute Rationality.
After all, he still wanted to focus on improving his cultivation and combat power.
He wanted to cultivate all the battle techniques that could enhance his combat power, so he would have more cards up his sleeve.
The key was that with the simulator'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 once later.
After making his decision, the simulation officially began.
[The 29th simulation begins.]
[Your extensive simulation experience makes you instantly aware that you are in the simulation.]
[On the first day, you think about the potential harm your Calamity Tribulation 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 simulation, 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 calamity.]
[So, they have started to continuously spew out opportunities, trying to nurture someone to face the calamity.]
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 calamity.
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 simulation.
As expected of a red talent.
Although it harms others without benefiting oneself, at least it didn't bring direct danger to his simulated self.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng slightly relaxed.
He continued to read the text on the simulator.
[On the second day, you arrived at the Valley of Flames.]
[This was a decision you made after careful consideration.]
[In your mind, since you have the Calamity Tribulation Body, heading to the Great Wilderness Battlefield should be the best plan.]
[By then, you could completely stay away from the people of the Nine Mystic Realm and cultivate near the Immortal Clan.]
[Send all the calamities to the people of the Immortal Clan.]
[Moreover, in a previous simulation, you had already roughly memorized the path to the Great Wilderness Battlefield through deep simulation.]
[You weren't worried about not finding the Great Wilderness Battlefield and having to stay in the Great Wilderness for too long.]
[This plan you came up with seemed perfect to you.]
[However, after arriving at the Valley of Flames, you didn't immediately leave the Southern Regions.]
[Instead, you began to comprehend the power of laws contained in the Phoenix's flames here.]
[After all, in your mind, comprehending 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 simulate, it seems to be the unluckiest.]
[In your heart, you silently said, "Sorry!" and then settled down in the Valley of Flames.]
[In the following days, you began to use the Taotie Divine Body to devour the Phoenix's flames every day, comprehending the laws within.]
[In the third month, you sensed a trace of fire power from the Phoenix's flames.]
[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 could comprehend this so quickly was related to your cultivation.]
[Previously, when you hadn't reached the Ancient God realm, comprehending laws was like comprehending beyond your level, naturally much more difficult.]
[But now, your cultivation has caught up, and comprehending various laws again is naturally much smoother and faster.]
[Quickly, two years passed.]
[You didn't directly comprehend the Nirvana power.]
[But you already roughly understood the principle of the Nirvana power.]
[To be precise, the Nirvana power is not a single law, but a fusion of multiple laws and the Phoenix's spirit.]
Chapter 171: Practically tailor-made for you!
[Upon receiving this answer, you felt a bit disappointed.]
[You can comprehend and learn the laws; but the Phoenix's spiritual power, how do you learn that?]
[However, you didn't give up. Even if you couldn't comprehend the power of Nirvana from the Phoenix flames.]
[Being able to comprehend the Law of Fire and the Law of Life is already excellent.]
[In the third year, after giving up on directly comprehending the power of Nirvana, you spent just one year to comprehend 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 finally comprehended a trace of the Law of Life from the Phoenix flames.]
[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 flames here was not high enough to support your continued comprehension.]
[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 Calamity Physique, the Demonic Phoenix would wail every few days.]
[This time you carried the Red Talent Calamity Tribulation Body, how could there be no reaction?]
[Could it be dead?]
[But it shouldn't be. If the Demonic Phoenix were dead, the Phoenix flames in this Valley of Flames should have extinguished!]
[You hurriedly used your Divine Sense to scan the entire Valley of Flames 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 black?]
[However, you didn't think much of it.]
[It seemed that the Demonic Phoenix was indeed affected.]
[Although it didn't look as miserable as last time with the Calamity Physique, after all, you didn't stay as long this time.]
[You thought you might have misunderstood the Calamity Tribulation Body.]
[Its level is higher than the Calamity 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 Flames, heading southward to the Great Wilderness.]
In reality, Jiang Yifeng was puzzled when he saw this.
Something wasn't right!
According to the initial simulation, the Calamity Tribulation 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 simulation.
Should he inform his simulated self about the issues shown by the simulator?
After thinking for a long time, Jiang Yifeng gave up.
Forget it!
There's no need. What good would it do to inform his simulated self?
After all, the talent of the Calamity Tribulation 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 simulation, heading towards the Great Wilderness Battlefield.]
[Although you felt that the Calamity Tribulation 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 nineteenth 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 to come 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 explained for a long time.]
[But Xiao Siyuan was unmoved.]
[Your actions were restricted.]
[According 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 simulations, you could tell that Lu Xuanqing wasn't a bloodthirsty person.]
[As long as you explained clearly to him, you shouldn't be in any danger.]
[At most, you would just go to the battlefield to fight against the Immortal Clan.]
[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 calamity of the Calamity Tribulation Body to the Immortal Clan.]
[So, you were eager to fight against the Immortal Clan as soon as possible.]
[Now, what you were worried about was that your Calamity 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 homeland.]
[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't come 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 Calamity Tribulation 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 become more irritable and violent over the years.]
[It was common for them to self-destruct at the slightest provocation!]
[Sometimes, they even did this to their own comrades, 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 Clan, you left the Nine Mystic Realm's military camp.]
[In the same year, you encountered a five-person team from the Immortal Clan, 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 minutes later, there were five corpses around you.]
[But you didn't pay attention to them. Instead, you looked at your blood-stained sword, comprehending 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 simulations and dying in frustration each time, had long accumulated 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 Clan.]
[Year 24, it seems you chose the wrong direction and didn't encounter any Immortal Clan members.]
[Year 25, you changed direction and continued searching for isolated Immortal Clan teams.]
[This year, your luck seemed to improve, and you encountered several teams from the Immortal Clan.]
[You killed hundreds of Mortal Immortal realm experts from the Immortal Clan.]
[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 battle lasted 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 simulation, you could kill Earth Immortal realm experts while still in the Tribulation 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 simulation, 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 to combat power is also terrifying.]
[In previous simulations, 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 shortcomings!]
[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 accomplishment 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 Clan.]
[But the number of Mortal Immortal realm experts you killed is beyond count.]
[However, in these years of fighting the Immortal Clan,]
[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 Clan 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 Clan.]
[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 accomplishment 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 slaughtering a group of Mortal Immortal realm experts from the Immortal Clan,]
[Another Earth Immortal realm expert from the Immortal Clan sought you out.]
[You thought you could easily take him down.]
[But this time, you miscalculated!]
[Unexpectedly, this time, it was a Chosen from the Immortal Clan.]
[He had the ability to fight across realms.]
[This battle lasted 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 Clan at the same realm,]
[Fighting across realms was not guaranteed.]
[After all, the Immortal Clan 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 Clan did not use battle techniques stronger than other Earth Immortal realm experts.]
[But he had comprehended more laws.]
[He used and fused these laws more perfectly, incorporating them into his battle techniques.]
[This made the Chosen from the Immortal Clan possess extremely powerful combat 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!]
[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 Clan.]
[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 pursuing combat training.]
[Year 70, you found a cave on the Great Wilderness Battlefield and began a closed-door cultivation.]
[You planned to learn from the Chosen of the Immortal Clan, fusing your comprehension of laws to enhance your combat 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 accumulated 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 uncontrollable.]
[They seemed to have lost their senses, killing anyone they saw!]
[These people had become puppets driven solely by a desire to kill.]
[This was the reason you had difficulty encountering members of the Immortal Clan.]
[Those patrolling or on missions were usually not of high realms, and they were all influenced by your Calamity Tribulation Body, leading to mutual slaughter.]
[How could you encounter them?]
[Of course, you were completely 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 enlightenment lasted quite a long time.]
[However, the gains were substantial.]
Chapter 173: World catastrophe, destruction! Talent triggered!
[First of all, you successfully 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 two laws and one true meaning are extremely volatile, 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 single law.]
[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 the laws much more fluid.]
[In battle, you can now seamlessly combine various laws.]
[This significantly enhances your combat 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 Calamity Tribulation Body had intensified.]
[It had turned even Supreme Unity Golden Immortal realm experts into mindless killing puppets.]
[Even many Great Luo realm experts occasionally lost control.]
[In fact, it wasn't just the Great Wilderness Battlefield.]
[Other places, even entire realms, had begun to show changes starting from lower-level individuals.]
[Notably, in these years, a black Demonic Phoenix emerged from the Southern Regions.]
[This black Demonic Phoenix wreaked havoc across various realms as soon as it appeared.]
[Although it didn't seem very powerful, its black flames 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, becoming stronger each time.]
[This left the Saints in utter misery!]
[And this black Demonic Phoenix was the very one that had spent twenty years with you in the Valley of Flames in the Southern Regions.]
[Back then, while you were cultivating by devouring Phoenix flames, the calamity aura from your Calamity Tribulation Body was also nourishing the Demonic Phoenix at close range.]
[This caused it to fully mutate.]
[You cultivated with its Phoenix flames, and the calamity aura from your body empowered it!]
[It allowed the Demonic Phoenix to continuously resurrect and grow stronger using the calamity 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 calamity 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 into complete chaos.]
[All realms had entered a state of all-out war.]
[All cultivators and mortals were involved.]
[This was an apocalyptic calamity.]
[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 Calamity Tribulation 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 Saints completely 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 calamity, 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 calamity 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 black Demonic Phoenix.]
[At this moment, the Demonic Phoenix was right outside your place 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 black Demonic Phoenix.]
[In fact, this was understandable. After all, this Demonic Phoenix mutated because of the calamity 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 collapsed, and this world began to crumble.]
[You, in seclusion, finally sensed something was wrong.]
[Unfortunately, it seemed too late.]
[Everything was being annihilated, and you seemed to have nowhere to escape.]
[At this moment, a giant black Phoenix wrapped its body around you!]
[But it was of no use!]
[You and the black Phoenix died together!]
[Died in the annihilation 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 black Phoenix also did not disappear.]
[Let's just say, the black 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 successfully 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 black Phoenix that was with you also became your pet spirit chicken.]
[After successfully 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 black spirit chicken you raised, it seemed particularly 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 successfully 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, you complete sect tasks, raise chickens, and farm the land.]
[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 place 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 become 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 accompli.
He couldn't change it even if he wanted to.
No point in overthinking!
Jiang Yifeng thought it would be best to restore his simulated self's memories.
If that didn't work, he should at least pass on the cultivation techniques to his simulated self, accelerating his cultivation and enhancing his strength.
Seeing his simulated self still practicing low-grade techniques, it was clear that he had forgotten all the cultivation methods.
So, Jiang Yifeng silently chanted.
"Start deep simulation for 100 years!"
Just now, he suddenly thought that to let his simulated self obtain cultivation techniques and spells, deep simulation was necessary.
Since that was the case, why not simulate for a longer period?
After all, if the simulator contained a memory-less version of himself, Jiang Yifeng wouldn't know what he would do!
A complete deep simulation 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 simulation.]
[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 simulator was deliberately blocking his deep simulation.
How could his simulated self die and still traverse billions of years for possession and survive?
Now he couldn't even simulate for a hundred years?
The simulator seemed to sense Jiang Yifeng's thoughts, and a prompt sounded timely!
[Ding, reminder to the host: Your simulated 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 simulate then?"
Jiang Yifeng admitted that the simulator had a point.
So he chose to ask how long he could deep simulate.
Since he couldn't simulate indefinitely, he had to send in the key techniques.
Otherwise, continuously practicing garbage techniques would waste the simulated cultivation time.
[Suggestion: The host should not exceed ten days for deep simulation.]
Hearing this, Jiang Yifeng immediately spoke.
"Then deep simulate for ten days!"
[Ding, starting deep simulation 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 simulation.
After confirming he had entered the simulation.
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 simulation 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 simulated 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 simulation ended.
The most crucial thing was that the Calamity Tribulation 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 simulation.
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, according to his thinking, if he couldn't surpass his real-world cultivation level, the simulated cultivation would be useless as it couldn't be extracted to reality.
But, could this world really only last a few hundred or thousand years?
Not necessarily!
After all, this was a complete world with a complete Dao.
It wasn't like the world three hundred million years later, 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't completely give up.
In the ten days of deep simulation.
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 simulated 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 Calamity Tribulation Body!
He decided to let things take their course.
After all, Jiang Yifeng worried that if his memory-less simulated self was a saintly figure, he might commit suicide!
Even if this simulation couldn't surpass his real-world cultivation.
Learning about things from three hundred million years ago would still be beneficial!
[Ding, deep simulation 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 simulator didn't allow him to deep simulate for too long.
This deep simulation 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 simulation.
[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 days later, 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 all come from the sect's spirit beast farm.]
[Only your favorite black 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 simulation, causing you to misunderstand!]
[But if you really want to talk about contingencies, it seems plausible!]
[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-wide competition in a month.]
[So, without any hesitation, you sign up.]
[This sect-wide competition 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-wide competition is held as scheduled.]
[You first participate in the competition 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 place 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 place and become an inner sect disciple.]
[Soon after, a senior brother from the inner sect tells you to change your residence.]
[According 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 Black.]
[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 slack 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 assessment competition begins again.]
[You sign up again, this time aiming for the position of a true disciple.]
[Unfortunately, you fail this time.]
[After the competition, 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.]
[Instead, you start taking on various tasks from the sect.]
[Doing tasks not only improves your combat 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 your combat power a qualitative leap.]
[In the same year, you finally succeed in becoming 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 explain 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 explanation, 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 becomes reasonable.]
[Thus, you are accepted as the last 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!]
