Wang Ping shook his head, composed himself, and continued to watch the simulation.
[Just as you and Ye Chen were catching up and planning to pick the Bloodfire Gems, another unexpected event occurred. Multiple dark figures suddenly appeared and attacked you, Ji Bingyue, and Cai Yonglong.]
[Although you had been on guard to prevent anyone from ambushing you, the methods of these dark figures were incredibly bizarre. Cai Yonglong couldn't defend himself and was directly killed.]
[In a heavily injured state, Ji Bingyue also fought to the death and was slain by them. You, too, couldn't withstand the attack and were killed on the spot.]
[As for Ye Chen, although he reacted faster and intended to protect you all, he was attacked by the two strongest among them and had no time to spare for you, helplessly watching you all being killed.]
[Upon witnessing this, Ye Chen erupted in anger and engaged in an earth-shattering battle with the dark figures. As for you, with the help of a revival talisman, you came back to life and witnessed their battle. You discovered that the person facing Ye Chen was none other than the Second Demoness of the Nine Nether Demon Sect. Rumor had it that her cultivation had already reached the seventh level or higher of the Life and Death Realm, and her methods were astonishing. Despite being suppressed in cultivation, she remained immensely powerful, capable of going head-to-head with Ye Chen and showing no signs of defeat in the short term.]
[The person who attacked and killed you was a familiar face, the Sixth Demoness of the Nine Nether Demon Sect, someone who had targeted you in your memory. You were furious and knew there was no way out. Without hesitation, you launched a fierce attack on the Sixth Demoness.]
[However, the Sixth Demoness did not expect you to revive, but she wasn't afraid of you. She engaged in a fierce battle with you, although her strength was inferior to yours and she was directly suppressed by you. However, she sneered, not worrying too much because there were others with her this time.]
[As the Sixth Demoness sneered, members of the Nine Nether Demon Sect began to join the fight, surrounding you. Although your strength was unmatched in the half-step Life and Death Realm, with only Ye Chen surpassing you, facing multiple attackers was still extremely difficult.]
[However, members of the Heaven Sword Sacred Ground soon arrived and joined the battle one after another. At the same time, you shouted that every member of the Nine Nether Demon Sect should be eradicated, and it was impossible for anyone to have connections with the Demon Sect. This statement made many people change their expressions. Being labeled as related to the Demon Sect was not something they could ignore. Eventually, someone joined the battle, and the members of the Nine Nether Demon Sect began to fall.]
[However, what surprised everyone was the appearance of a terrifying magic formation that covered the area and blocked space. It emitted a terrifying power and instantly killed many people.]
[Your heart sank as you knew that the members of the Demon Sect had already prepared this magic formation. The Nine Nether Demon Sect was ruthless and had deep scheming.]
[Seeing the situation was dire, Ye Chen's expression turned serious as he appeared by your side, using his trump card to break through the spatial blockade and forcibly move away from there.]
[However, during the teleportation process, it was highly unstable, and you and Ye Chen were separated during the teleportation. You were transported directly to a terrifying area of flames, and your body was instantly incinerated into nothingness. Before dying, you saw a dreamlike purple flame swaying in front of you, mischievously burning your soul into ashes.]
[Due to your death, this simulation ends.]
"Still ended up dead. The Nine Nether Demon Sect is really ruthless," Wang Ping muttered with a furrowed brow.
In order to kill him and Cai Yonglong, the enemy had indeed invested a lot of effort and prepared thoroughly. Despite his vigilance and the presence of Ye Chen, they still found an opportunity.
Finally, Ye Chen used his trump card to teleport them out, but they were separated in the process. Wang Ping found himself in a terrifying realm of flames, where his body was reduced to ashes before he saw a mesmerizing purple flame that held a strange, dangerous aura.
"Is there such a terrifying flame in the Chish Fire Secret Realm?" Wang Ping wondered incredulously.
"This fire, could it be related to Ye Chen? If so, he's really lucky. He obtained two types of unique fires in one go, one ranked tenth and the other third on the list."
However, he quickly dismissed this idea. It was highly unlikely that Ye Chen could acquire this type of flame at his current cultivation level. Logical constraints dictated that he must have reached the Nirvana Realm or even the King Realm to have a chance of taming the Purple Spirit Illusionary Fire.
"Knowing that this flame exists, if I could obtain it... that would be amazing!" Wang Ping's excitement grew as he contemplated the possibilities.
Just at that moment, the system's voice interrupted his thoughts, causing Wang Ping to snap back to reality with an ecstatic expression.
"Ding, reward generation successful. Host can choose two items from the following rewards:
1. Half-Step Life and Death Realm cultivation.
2. King Grade Martial Technique - Heaven Sword Technique.
3. Premium Divine Ability - Ice and Fire Sword Song.
4. Nirvana Fruit.
5. Lifelong Sword Embryo (Almost Supreme Treasure).
6. Various secret techniques you have cultivated.
7. Wuhun Grass.
8. Purple Spirit Illusionary Fire.
9. True King Blood Flower.
10. Red-Tier Talent - Sword Profundity."
"Damn!" Wang Ping stared at the reward list, his eyes widened in disbelief, completely losing his composure.
There wasn't a single ordinary item among these rewards.
The most disappointing item was the Nirvana Fruit, which he had previously considered a treasure.
"I wonder if I've used up all my luck for the future by drawing a red-tier talent and getting a bunch of item rewards," Wang Ping mused, somewhat skeptical.
After all, directly drawing a red-tier talent and then receiving a multitude of item rewards was quite unbelievable.
"Whatever, even if my luck runs out, and I end up unlucky for a while, these rewards are just too good!" Wang Ping sighed and muttered to himself, feeling a bit regretful.
It was frustrating because he wanted all of these rewards.
Though one shouldn't be too greedy, when treasures were within reach, few could resist the temptation.
"System, I choose 8. Purple Spirit Illusionary Fire and 10. Red-Tier Talent - Sword Profundity," Wang Ping declared.
He sighed, knowing that he could only select two rewards, even though he wanted them all.
"Ding, the level of the Purple Spirit Mirage Fire has been detected to be too high. The Life Simulator automatically processes it, sealing it to a level that the host can control. As the host's cultivation improves, it can unleash the maximum power within the host's control range."
The system's voice rang out again, raising Wang Ping's eyebrows.
Wow, there's this setting too? The Life Simulator, while often tricky, can also be considerate.
"This is really nice. If it were the original version of the Purple Spirit Mirage Fire, I'm afraid it would have disappeared the moment I received it."
Wang Ping shook his head and muttered to himself in his heart.
At this moment, Wang Ping felt a warm stream surging within his body, and his physique underwent a change, turning into the powerful physique known as the Sword Profound Body, which even the Elders of the Heaven's Sword Sect valued.
Simultaneously, within his body, a phantom, interwoven with ethereal chains, appeared, forming a purple-colored flame.
After the appearance of the purple flame, all other attributes within Wang Ping's body instantly changed, completely suppressed by the fire attribute, with fire as the dominant element.
"This is so overbearing."
Wang Ping watched this scene, somewhat speechless.
However, Wang Ping didn't pay too much attention to it. His path forward was relatively clear at the moment, focusing on the way of the sword, with other attributes as secondary. Regardless of which attribute temporarily dominates, he didn't need to worry.
When he switched to the Heaven's Sword Technique, all other attribute spirit elements would likely disappear, leaving only the sword as the main element.
Using his insights, he would simply utilize the mysteries of various insights without the support of spirit elements. The additional support of spirit elements wasn't of significant importance.
"With the Purple Spirit Mirage Fire, even though I currently only possess a half-step Yin-Yang Mirror cultivation, my techniques and divine abilities haven't reached the configuration seen in the simulation, I can still defeat the true disciples of the sect, right?"
Wang Ping flicked his palm, and a dreamlike purple flame swayed and emerged from his hand, causing a faint smile to curl at the corner of his mouth.
The true disciples of the sect all had cultivations at the Yin-Yang Mirror level and were considered geniuses among geniuses. It would be quite difficult to surpass them with a cultivation level difference.
But with the Sword Profound Body and the Purple Spirit Mirage Fire, even if his techniques and divine abilities were far inferior, Wang Ping had the confidence to fight against them and even defeat them.
Of course, Wang Ping, while confident, wasn't blindly arrogant. He knew that among the geniuses, a small difference in cultivation level could lead to a vast disparity in strength.
Currently, he might be able to handle those who had recently reached the Yin-Yang Mirror level, but if the gap in cultivation level was too wide, it would still be very challenging.
However, Wang Ping was in no rush. He simply needed to simulate a few more times, whether it was techniques, divine abilities, or cultivation level, he could easily catch up.
However, he didn't intend to raise his cultivation level in the short term. Doing so would cause the resources required for the simulation to skyrocket. He still wanted to accumulate more simulations, hoping to obtain more blue or even red talents.
Besides, Wang Ping had thought of a crucial issue. Once his cultivation level became too high, the attitude of the Heaven's Sword Sect might change.
Reaching the semi-divine level at such a young age, especially as an independent cultivator, would draw a lot of attention and suspicion.
People might assume that he had some incredible hidden opportunity, and joining the sect could be seen as trying to take advantage of their inheritance.
In addition, if he joined the sect with such a high cultivation level, they might not readily accept him as a direct disciple or a 'Holy Son.' They might instead make him an honorary elder or something similar.
Wang Ping contemplated these possibilities.
"Actually, once I've gained enough resources from the sect's rewards, there may not be much meaning in joining the sect anymore."
Wang Ping thought to himself.
"Hope the Heaven's Sword Sect would accept me as a direct disciple or 'Holy Son' at the semi-divine level. Reaching the divine level seems unlikely. However, if I hide my age, it might not be easy to join either. Those old monsters have eyes as sharp as hawks; they can see through almost anything."
Finally, Wang Ping shook his head, deciding not to dwell on these matters.
He would take it one step at a time.
As for the potential danger of using the sect's inheritance after joining and raising suspicions, he didn't want to think about it for now.
"In any case, it's best not to raise my cultivation level beyond the semi-divine level in the short term."
Wang Ping stroked his chin, murmuring.
Not breaking through to the semi-divine level had several advantages. He speculated about the potential dangers associated with joining the sect and simulating at such a high level.
Moreover, once he reached a higher cultivation level, the resources required for the simulation would increase significantly. Wang Ping was uncertain about the amount of spirit stones he would need after reaching the Yin-Yang Mirror level, let alone the semi-divine level.
"Therefore, it's best to progress step by step."
Wang Ping concluded. He would keep accumulating resources and simulations and make decisions accordingly in the future.
"More precisely, maintaining one's cultivation at the half-step life and death realm is the best choice," Wang Ping pondered and added.
In this manner, he hoped that the next simulation could refresh the reward for reaching the half-step life and death realm. Unfortunately, what level of cultivation could ultimately be achieved was not under his control but rather depended on when the simulated Wang Ping would meet his demise.
The simulated Wang Ping wouldn't just throw his life away after reaching the half-step life and death realm, after all.
"Ah, it's really troublesome. It would be great if I could consciously choose how much cultivation to improve," Wang Ping couldn't help but complain.
Optimizing the "golden finger" was a must! Otherwise, many things couldn't be perfectly controlled, and that feeling was truly uncomfortable.
"I have one simulation opportunity left. Let's use the remaining spirit stones for one final simulation and decide on subsequent simulations based on the situation," Wang Ping said to himself after collecting his thoughts.
"System, I want to conduct a paid simulation."
"Ding, payment successful. The remaining high-grade spirit stones for the host are 70. Life simulator initiated. Talent refresh in progress."
The familiar voice of the system rang out.
"Ding, talent refresh successful. Congratulations to the host for not refreshing any talents."
"Here we go, it's starting for real," Wang Ping rolled his eyes.
As he had expected, the previous simulation had already depleted his luck.
To be honest, he wasn't surprised at all that no talents were refreshed. He was actually afraid of refreshing some bizarre talents that would lead to his rapid death and prevent him from gaining any benefits.
"Ding, life simulation begins."
The system's voice sounded once again, and the familiar screen appeared, with text floating on it.
[Day 1, you chose to cultivate.]
[In the blink of an eye, several decades have passed, and you have been following your memory, encountering few surprises.]
[During the Hundred Dynasties Great War, your performance shocked many powerhouses.]
[In the semi-finals, you defeated Ji Bingyue and advanced to the finals.]
[In the final battle, you engaged in a fierce battle with Ye Chen, and at the most critical moment, you finally used your most powerful trump card, the Purple Spirit Illusionary Fire. With the Purple Spirit Illusionary Fire, you easily defeated Ye Chen, becoming the champion of the Hundred Dynasties Great War.]
[However, the appearance of the Purple Spirit Illusionary Fire greatly shocked countless people. After all, it is the third-ranked exotic fire in the Purple Spirit Realm, renowned and coveted by emperors. No one expected it to be in your possession.]
[With your cultivation, it was impossible to subdue such a terrifying flame. However, you managed to do so, breaking the norm. Many powerhouses were tempted, including kings who wished to snatch it from you.]
[But this is the Tianjian Holy City, and they ultimately didn't have the courage to steal it from you. They could only watch helplessly. You had anticipated this and had no regrets about using the Purple Spirit Illusionary Fire. Defeating Ye Chen had always been your goal as a transmigrator. Being constantly overshadowed by Ye Chen was quite uncomfortable.]
[After defeating Ye Chen, he finally woke up and, aside from feeling shocked, he was also somewhat envious. After all, he wanted to subdue various exotic fires to strengthen himself. The flames on the Exotic Fire Rankings were his targets. Unfortunately, he hadn't obtained any yet, while you had already tamed the third-ranked exotic fire.]
[Of course, Ye Chen was only envious and did not harbor any other emotions. After all, you were his first mentor and his guiding light. He respected you greatly and could only admire you. The mentor is truly worthy of being a mentor.]
[As for Cai Yonglong, he complained that you were starting to cheat again but had no other thoughts.]
[In the end, with the help of the Emperor of the Void, you broke through the Yin and Yang, became a holy child, nurtured the Sword Embryo, and began to practice diligently.]
[However, during this process, you did not choose to practice the Tianjian Scripture but opted for a fire attribute and sword cultivation technique instead. If you did not practice a fire-based technique, you would not be able to control the power of the Purple Spirit Illusionary Fire, which was a pity.]
[In the blink of an eye, more than thirty years have passed, and your cultivation has reached the half-step life and death realm, slightly faster than you remembered. This is because you have developed a method to temper your character due to the influence of the Purple Spirit Illusionary Fire, resulting in significant improvements in your mental strength, which greatly benefits your cultivation.]
[In addition, your comprehension of divine techniques has also been faster than the simulated Wang Ping you remember. You have already successfully comprehended your own supreme divine technique. However, this time, it is not the supreme divine technique "Ice Sun Sword Song," but "Phantom Flame Sword Song," a divine technique you developed based on the characteristics of the Purple Spirit Illusionary Fire.]
[This divine technique is quite powerful when used alone. When combined with the Purple Spirit Illusionary Fire, its power soars to the extreme, surpassing the level of supreme divine techniques.]
[In these twenty years, thanks to you, Ye Chen and Ji Bingyue were stimulated and reached the half-step life and death realm earlier. They also comprehended their supreme divine techniques.]
[Both of them have had sparring matches with you over the years, but now, due to the boost from the Purple Spirit Illusionary Fire, you have become too powerful. Despite entering the half-step life and death realm and comprehending their supreme divine techniques, they are still not your match. Even when they team up, they cannot defeat you, at most, they can prevent you from winning easily. It can be said that your current strength is unrivaled in the same generation, and there is no one in the entire Purple Spirit Realm who can match you. The geniuses of the Eastern Wilderness are not enough, and in the Northern Plains, Southern Mountains, Western Desert, and Central Plains, there are no peers who can rival you.]
"It's quite terrifying, isn't it?" Wang Ping looked at the simulation content and couldn't help but smile.
This time, he had finally defeated Ye Chen in the same realm. Although he had defeated Ye Chen when he went astray that time, Ye Chen's cultivation level should have been much lower at that time.
This time, the simulated Wang Ping fought Ye Chen head-on, and it wasn't a tie but a decisive victory.
This showed just how amazing the Purple Spirit Illusionary Fire was, ranking third on the Exotic Fire Rankings. It was much more powerful than the Devil Flame of the Earthly Evil Fire, which Ye Chen had obtained in the Flame Realm.
"Let's see how this will develop further. It's really something to look forward to," Wang Ping murmured as he continued to gaze at the screen.
"With the help of the Emperor of the Void, you broke through the Yin and Yang, became a holy child, nurtured the Sword Embryo, and began to practice diligently."
"However, during this process, you did not choose to practice the Tianjian Scripture but opted for a fire attribute and
sword cultivation technique instead. If you did not practice a fire-based technique, you would not be able to control the power of the Purple Spirit Illusionary Fire, which was a pity."
"In the blink of an eye, more than thirty years have passed, and your cultivation has reached the half-step life and death realm, slightly faster than you remembered. This is because you have developed a method to temper your character due to the influence of the Purple Spirit Illusionary Fire, resulting in significant improvements in your mental strength, which greatly benefits your cultivation."
"In addition, your comprehension of divine techniques has also been faster than the simulated Wang Ping you remember. You have already successfully comprehended your own supreme divine technique. However, this time, it is not the supreme divine technique 'Ice Sun Sword Song,' but 'Phantom Flame Sword Song,' a divine technique you developed based on the characteristics of the Purple Spirit Illusionary Fire."
"This divine technique is quite powerful when used alone. When combined with the Purple Spirit Illusionary Fire, its power soars to the extreme, surpassing the level of supreme divine techniques."
"In these twenty years, thanks to you, Ye Chen and Ji Bingyue were stimulated and reached the half-step life and death realm earlier. They also comprehended their supreme divine techniques."
"Both of them have had sparring matches with you over the years, but now, due to the boost from the Purple Spirit Illusionary Fire, you have become too powerful. Despite entering the half-step life and death realm and comprehending their supreme divine techniques, they are still not your match. Even when they team up, they cannot defeat you, at most, they can prevent you from winning easily. It can be said that your current strength is unrivaled in the same generation, and there is no one in the entire Purple Spirit Realm who can match you. The geniuses of the Eastern Wilderness are not enough, and in the Northern Plains, Southern Mountains, Western Desert, and Central Plains, there are no peers who can rival you."
"Goodness, this is so terrifying?" Wang Ping looked at the simulation content and couldn't help but exclaim.
This Purple Spirit Illusionary Fire was even more powerful than he had imagined. It had made him the number one figure of his generation in the Purple Spirit Realm, and even Ye Chen and Ji Bingyue couldn't defeat him when they joined forces. It was quite astonishing.
"This feels like cheating, it's so satisfying," Wang Ping's lips curled up slightly, and he had a smile on his face.
In the simulation, he had been overshadowed by Ye Chen for a long time, but now he had completely suppressed him.
However, Wang Ping didn't get carried away. He knew that things might change when the Flame Realm opened.
Even if Ye Chen obtained the Earthly Evil Fire, he still wouldn't be his match.
Based on the current information, Wang Ping could only think of one way for Ye Chen to surpass him, which was to obtain the inheritance of the Fire Emperor in the Flame Realm.
In the Flame Realm, there were so many treasures. The value of the inheritance of an emperor was unimaginable.
"It seems that this Fire Emperor in the Flame Realm is not an ordinary one among emperors," Wang Ping's eyes flickered as he murmured.
Ordinary emperors wouldn't have the Earthly Evil Fire, right? Furthermore, they wouldn't possess a Purple Spirit Illusionary Fire. That was clearly impossible.
Apart from that, ordinary emperors' secret realms might not be able to attract the Holy Lands of the entire Purple Spirit Realm, and they still couldn't forcibly break through the safety measures even now.
