"Ding, fast forward in progress."
The voice of the system sounded, and the screen appeared with text floating out.
[On the first day, you made a choice. Due to your knowledge of the location of the God Emperor's Ancient Tomb, you went there in advance and used the laws of space to sneak in, easily gaining many resources.]
[Next, you pondered whether to join the Dao Palace. Joining the Dao Palace would attract too much attention and certainly be noticed by the second-generation time travelers in the chat group. That would be dangerous.]
[Ultimately, you made a choice and did not go to the Dao Palace in the Taiyuan Ancient Star domain. Instead, you concealed your identity and strength, quietly joining the White Flame Divine Sect as an honorary elder.]
[In the blink of an eye, it's time for the Great Sage's Secret Realm to open. You quietly left the White Flame Divine Sect, just as you remembered.]
[However, your luck this time didn't seem to be very good. You didn't trigger the effect of the Purple Talent - Endless Blade. Your ambush didn't send the God Emperor Realm powerhouse from the Zhang family flying, and you didn't seize the Holy Medicine.]
[Your ambush also angered the God Emperor Realm expert from the Zhang family, and they attacked you. Under duress, you had no choice but to flee. You fled quickly, and the Zhang family's God Emperor Realm expert couldn't catch up with you, only able to watch you escape.]
"So, it turns out it was thanks to the Purple Talent - Endless Blade. Now, even when facing a God Emperor Realm expert, using the power of the laws, and launching a sneak attack, it's difficult to knock them away or move them."
Wang Ping looked at this simulated content, furrowing his brows slightly, sighing inwardly.
It seemed that the idea of endlessly farming for Holy Medicine up to the God Emperor Realm or even the Divine Realm was going to fail.
Unless he raised his cultivation again and strengthened his own power to obtain that Holy Medicine.
This was quite feasible.
He only needed to cultivate to the third or fourth level of the True God Realm in one of the simulations, and if he forcibly ended the simulation at that point, he could refresh the rewards for reaching the third or fourth level of the True God Realm.
This way, although it would waste one simulation opportunity, the future simulation costs wouldn't be too excessive, and he would also effectively compete for the Holy Medicine, without relying on the critical hit effect of the Purple Talent - Endless Blade.
"However, this is the last simulation, and I can't waste it. So, I still have to simulate normally. Next, I'll have to wait until I obtain many benefits in the God Emperor's Ancient Tomb before doing that."
Wang Ping's gaze flickered as he silently pondered in his heart.
[You didn't obtain the Holy Medicine and felt quite frustrated, thinking that you might have overestimated the effect of the Purple Talent - Prosperous Wealth. After all, you thought that it was the effect of the Purple Talent - Prosperous Wealth that allowed you to obtain the Holy Medicine.]
[While you were feeling frustrated, you unexpectedly found a divine source vein and dug up a lot of divine source energy. There were plenty of low-grade divine sources and many medium to high-grade divine sources.]
[This wave of fortune undoubtedly made you rich. Because of this, you were excited and felt like you had been unfair to the Purple Talent - Prosperous Wealth. You couldn't help but be hypocritical.]
[Next, you continued your actions and encountered Lin Yan, who had already obtained the inheritance of the Great Sage. After thinking it over, you decided to test him and see what he was capable of in stopping the remnants of the Great Sage from taking over him and instead turning the tables on them.]
[After you proposed a sparring match to Lin Yan, a fierce battle broke out between you two. Lin Yan's strength was very formidable, and it was evident that he had cultivated some kind of mysterious technique or divine skill. Without using the laws, he could fight you on equal ground.]
[Although he was clearly at a disadvantage and not your match, you were still quite surprised by his strength and the power of his mysterious technique. After all, the combat power you displayed now was comparable to that of the Emperor when he was young.]
[This also indicated that Lin Yan had the potential to reach a similar level. However, whether in the present or in the next thousand years, Lin Yan had always been low-key, and you hadn't heard of any disturbances caused by him.]
[Your curiosity about him grew, and you increased your strength to force him to use his hidden trump cards. This led to Lin Yan unleashing his true power and engaging in a crazy battle with you.]
[However, he ultimately lost to you, and you chose to stop. But you were still very puzzled. If Lin Yan only had this level of strength, he wouldn't have the ability to counter the remnants of the Great Sage. No doubt, he must have some shocking secrets.]
[You speculated that he definitely had some world-shaking secrets. These secrets couldn't be exposed; once they were, his situation would become extremely dangerous.]
[Because of this, you became even more curious about Lin Yan. However, even though you were curious, you had no intention of continuing to attack him. You planned to wait until you became more powerful to see if you could uncover Lin Yan's secrets.]
[Otherwise, with your current strength, forcibly extracting secrets from him would be impossible. Moreover, you had no grudges or conflicts with him.]
[Unlike the situation with Xuan Gui, where you had no choice but to attack Xuan Gui due to his craftiness. You and Lin Yan had no enmity or vested interests between you, so there was no need to suppress him out of curiosity and perform soul-searching on him.]
[Even in the simulation, you wanted to avoid such actions as much as possible. Some principles should not be crossed, as it could easily lead to issues with your character.]
[Next, after bidding farewell to Lin Yan, you left the Great Sage's Secret Realm and Lin Yan remembered you. After all, you were the first peer cultivator to defeat him, and it was clear that you hadn't used your full power.]
[After leaving the Great Sage's Secret Realm, you returned to the White Flame Divine Sect and began to cultivate discreetly. In addition to that, you continued to observe Lin Qinghe.]
[After all, this time, you also had the idea of finding out why Lin Qinghe had become corrupt. As long as you figured out the reason behind Lin Qinghe's corruption, with some intervention, you could make her your close friend, or even strengthen your relationship with her to the point where she would obey your every command.]
[In the blink of an eye, about a thousand years passed, and you were quietly cultivating. However, this time, due to the lack of Holy Medicine and the absence of the Dao Palace, your cultivation speed wasn't as fast.]
[Close to a thousand years later, your cultivation had only reached the pinnacle of the True God Realm Third Stage. Although this speed was already quite fast, compared to having Holy Medicine, it was clearly insignificant.]
[It was only after you broke through to the pinnacle of the True God Realm Third Stage that you finally
learned the reason for Lin Qinghe's corruption.]
[It turned out that Lin Qinghe and a senior sister from the White Flame Divine Sect had undergone a joint experience and had been betrayed miserably. The senior sister had always appeared to be friendly with her but was actually extremely jealous of her.]
[She believed that Lin Qinghe had taken away her position as the sect's Divine Maiden, blocking her path of cultivation. With her talent, she believed that only by becoming the Divine Maiden and gaining the resources of the Divine Maiden could she hope to break through to the semi-step God Emperor Realm and even the God Emperor Realm.]
[Now, without the identity of the Divine Maiden, she couldn't obtain the White Flame Divine Sect's full support, and she might be stuck at the True God Realm for the rest of her life.]
[As a result, she wanted to kill Lin Qinghe. After Lin Qinghe's death, she could become the new Divine Maiden and gain the White Flame Divine Sect's full support. Betrayed by the one she completely trusted, Lin Qinghe felt the darkness of human nature for the first time.]
[However, Lin Qinghe was not to be underestimated. Despite being betrayed by her senior sister and ambushed, she still managed to gain the upper hand in the battle.]
[But what Lin Qinghe learned from her senior sister afterward completely overturned her worldview. It turned out that the person she respected as her senior sister was a butcher sent by her respected master to exterminate her Lin family.]
[The reason for this was because her respected master had recognized her extraordinary talent and wanted to bring her to the White Flame Divine Sect for cultivation, making her wholeheartedly devoted to the sect.]
[This revelation shattered Lin Qinghe's mindset. She hadn't expected that everyone she trusted around her was actually such ruthless individuals. Distraught by this revelation, Lin Qinghe lost focus during the battle and was severely wounded, on the verge of being killed by her senior sister.]
[At a critical moment, Lin Qinghe's second soul, the previous Swallowing Immortal Demon Body, took over her body. It taunted that this was the true face of human nature and mocked Lin Qinghe for being too naive in the past.]
[Then, Lin Qinghe's second soul directly suppressed her senior sister. Lin Qinghe found it hard to accept these events, suspecting that her senior sister might have wanted to drive her to the brink of despair in order to kill her.]
[Seeing this, Lin Qinghe's second soul sneered and proceeded to perform a soul-search on her senior sister. Afterward, Lin Qinghe fell into complete silence.]
[All the high-level members of the White Flame Divine Sect knew about this incident and helped to cover it up. As the descendant of the White Flame Divine Sect's Great Elder, Lin Qinghe's senior sister also knew about it. She was the only one kept in the dark and played like a puppet.]
"Lin Qinghe's past was really tragic."
Wang Ping looked at the simulated text content and sighed.
Being exterminated by her own family, then brought back to be a tool to guard the White Flame Divine Sect, surrounded by people she trusted who were actually wolves in sheep's clothing.
It was fortunate that Lin Qinghe's senior sister, as the descendant of the Great Elder of the White Flame Divine Sect, had acted out of jealousy and a desire for the God Emperor Realm, which had led to the exposure of the truth.
Otherwise, Lin Qinghe would probably have found it difficult to know the truth and might have been deeply involved in protecting the White Flame Divine Sect, or even sought his help for it.
"No wonder Lin Qinghe became corrupt and somewhat pathological. Anyone would become corrupted after experiencing such events. It's also no wonder that in the previous simulations, she was nowhere to be seen when the White Flame Divine Sect and the Northern Snow Divine Dynasty were destroyed. At that time, Lin Qinghe probably didn't have the strength. If she had the power, let alone saving the White Flame Divine Sect, she would have sought revenge herself."
"Although most of the people in the White Flame Divine Sect are innocent, the core figures definitely deserve death. Especially Lin Qinghe's respected master, he should be cut into a thousand pieces."
Wang Ping shook his head, feeling a bit sorrowful.
If he hadn't intervened, under normal development, Lin Qinghe would probably have become a major boss in the upper realms, following a path similar to the previous generation Swallowing Immortal Demon Body. He just didn't know if Lin Qinghe would meet the same fate as the previous generation Swallowing Immortal Demon Body, being killed by the Emperor.
Various thoughts flashed through Wang Ping's mind as he continued to gaze at the screen.
[After learning about Lin Qinghe's past, you also felt that Lin Qinghe had suffered too much. However, this time, you didn't have any plans to come out, and you quietly left without making a sound.]
Here's the translation of the text while maintaining the original formatting and tone:
[Your departure made the remnant soul of the previous Swallowing Immortal Demon Body snort coldly, without saying much. She had discovered you long ago, but since you didn't have any murderous intent or intention to take action, she wasn't interested in dealing with you.]
[Of course, this also had to do with Lin Qinghe's cultivation being too weak. She might not have been able to kill you even if she tried.]
[After you returned to the White Flame Divine Sect, you continued your cultivation. As for Lin Qinghe, as you expected, she didn't return to the White Flame Divine Sect. The previous Swallowing Immortal Demon Body must have informed her that her secret was exposed, so she naturally wouldn't return to such a dangerous place.]
[For Lin Qinghe at this point, cultivating discreetly, making some gains, and then annihilating the White Flame Divine Sect was the way to go.]
[The disappearance of Lin Qinghe and the death of her senior sister caused chaos in the White Flame Divine Sect. The sect's leaders, including the Divine Maiden, were shocked, thinking that Lin Qinghe might have learned about her past, which led to her actions.]
[They were angry and wanted to kill Lin Qinghe to eliminate future troubles. During this process, Lin Qinghe's respected master received criticism. If he hadn't brought Lin Qinghe back for cultivation, this wouldn't have happened.]
[Lin Qinghe's respected master had no words to defend himself. When Lin Qinghe was born, she displayed extraordinary talent, and as a force with a semi-step God Emperor Realm powerhouse in the Lin family, it was impossible to send her to the White Flame Divine Sect. If she were to be sent anywhere, it would be to a force like the Sacred Land or the Dao Palace.]
[So, her respected master resorted to this ruthless plan, destroying the Lin family and bringing Lin Qinghe back, hoping that she would one day become a Divine Maiden, and he could benefit from her rise to power.]
[Back then, he didn't have the power to destroy the Lin family, which was protected by a semi-step God Emperor Realm expert. So, he enlisted the help of the sect's ancestors and several true God Realm experts to quietly erase the Lin family.]
[Perhaps, it was also because of this that there was a risk of leaks in the information. However, Lin Qinghe's respected master knew that at this point, Lin Qinghe had to be killed. Otherwise, once she grew stronger, she would be the first to die.]
[To this end, Lin Qinghe's respected master showed a fierce expression, indicating that she had considered the possibility of information leaks. So, she planted a secret technique on Lin Qinghe to track her location.]
[Then, Lin Qinghe's respected master felt a bit regretful and helpless because, at the time, she hoped that Lin Qinghe would become a Divine Maiden. Naturally, she didn't set up a method to control Lin Qinghe's life and death. Otherwise, once Lin Qinghe grew up, it would be hard to explain.]
[Seeing this, the high-ranking members of the White Flame Divine Sect were delighted, while you, who were eavesdropping on everything, wore a mocking expression. With the previous generation Swallowing Immortal Demon Body around, trying to find Lin Qinghe and kill her was just wishful thinking for the White Flame Divine Sect.]
[However, you had no intention of continuing to watch. Instead, you quietly left the White Flame Divine Sect.]
[As you expected, the White Flame Divine Sect didn't find Lin Qinghe. Instead, they became a laughingstock. Moreover, considering the timeline, it wasn't too far from the day when the White Flame Divine Sect was destroyed by the alliance of the Blue Origin Divine Sect and the Northern Snow Divine Dynasty.]
[In the blink of an eye, more than five hundred years passed. During this time, the White Flame Divine Sect had already been annihilated by the Blue Origin Divine Sect and the Northern Snow Divine Dynasty. As a wandering cultivator with no shortage of cultivation resources, you had no intention of embarking on adventures. You continued to quietly cultivate.]
[Of course, due to the effect of the Purple Talent - Prosperous Wealth, even though you didn't actively seek adventures, occasional opportunities came your way. While they weren't extremely precious, it still felt good.]
[Now, after more than five hundred years had passed, your cultivation had improved, reaching the level of the Fourth Stage of the True God Realm. Although this speed was much slower than when you were refining the essence of Holy Medicine, it was still much faster than ordinary geniuses.]
[After breaking through to the Fourth Stage of the True God Realm, you decided to leave seclusion and explore the world a bit. Not long after, a terrifying aura descended on the Taiyuan Ancient Star, with formidable experts carrying Emperor's weapons, targeting the Dao Palace.]
[This made you realize one thing: this terrifying expert was not solely seeking revenge on the Dao Palace for your sake.]
[You silently observed the great battle, unsure if the Dao Palace would be able to withstand this catastrophe.]
[As the battle intensified, it became clear that, because you hadn't joined the Dao Palace this time, no Saints had appeared to protect it, and as a result, they were safe from harm.]
[However, a twist occurred during the battle. The terrifying expert concealed on the Taiyuan Ancient Star chose to intervene, helping the extraterrestrial experts against the Dao Palace.]
[With this terrifying expert's involvement, the Dao Palace was wiped out in an instant, turning into dust. The Dao Palace's Grandmaster was forcibly subjected to soul-searching.]
[Although those who practiced the Dao Emperor Scripture had a method to automatically erase their memories of the scripture when subjected to soul-searching, this terrifying expert's goal was clearly not the Dao Emperor Scripture, but rather to find a way to control Emperor's weapons.]
[However, this terrifying expert seemed disappointed and did not find a way to control Emperor's weapons. Nevertheless, since they had already taken action, they had to ensure that there were no loose ends. Otherwise, they would face retaliation from the Dao Palace's Emperor's weapon.]
[For this reason, they took action again, joining forces with the extraterrestrial experts to deal with the Dao Palace's Grandmaster. If it were only one person against the Dao Palace's Grandmaster wielding an Emperor's weapon, they would not dare to face the weapon for an extended period.]
[But with someone to distract the Grandmaster, the situation changed, significantly affecting the outcome.]
[Seeing this scene, you sighed, knowing that whether or not the Dao Palace's Grandmaster could turn the tide and kill the two enemies, the Dao Palace was finished this time. A million years of heritage, an undying great sect, all gone.]
[In the end, amidst the howl of the Dao Palace's Grandmaster, they perished, completely obliterated. The Dao Emperor's weapon also went berserk.]
[However, due to the suppression and sealing by Emperor's weapons, the weapon's spirit was unable to break free, even if it was furious. It would remain sealed and exiled to the boundless starry sky for some time.]
[Although even with two people, they wouldn't be able to suppress the sealed Dao Emperor's weapon for long,
it was enough time for them to escape. By the time the weapon's spirit grew furious again, it would be powerless rage.]
[With this, the terrifying battle came to an end, and you sighed for the fate of the Dao Palace. You remembered the Dao Palace's Grandmaster who had once nurtured you and felt that when you became powerful, you should seek revenge for them.]
[Of course, this is just a simulation. If you can do it in reality, you should. If something like the destruction of the Dao Palace can be prevented, it should be.]
[Next, you intended to continue your cultivation. You had no plans to leave seclusion until you reached the God Emperor Realm. However, something unfortunate happened.]
[You were directly found by Ruolan, the senior transcendent traveler, who killed you outright. Despite your numerous talents, you met the fate of being suppressed.]
[Whether it was the Purple Talent - Substitute Puppet, Purple Talent - Fate Connection, or the Resurrection Talisman, they all just gave you more lives. But given the second-generation chat group transcendent travelers' style of dealing with enemies, it was basic to eliminate the threat and camp at the location to prevent resurrection.]
[For this reason, you knew your fate, and you chose to actively exit the simulation.]
[Because of your voluntary exit, this simulation ends.]
[With the text simulation stopping here, Wang Ping's mind was filled with various scenes and insights from his cultivation.]
[Finally, his figure appeared in the secluded cultivation place and saw 'himself' being mercilessly suppressed by Ruolan.]
"This Ruolan, I wonder if she has obtained something like the Heavenly Scheme Symbol, similar to Chu Xiao. Otherwise, how could she find me so easily?" Wang Ping frowned when he saw this.
Heavenly Scheme Symbols, he had speculated before, were methods used by other transcendent travelers to locate people. But he had also guessed that they might be techniques of people in this world capable of deducing fates.
After all, there was the Heavenly Scheme Pavilion in the lower realms, and in the upper realms, there was the figure known as the Heavenly Calculus Master.
So, finding someone, as long as you were willing to pay the price, was quite simple.
Unless that person had countermeasures or methods to conceal their fate, they could avoid being tracked down.
"Originally, I thought that in the next simulation, I would intentionally raise my cultivation to the Third or Fourth Stage of the True God Realm and then end the simulation. It seems I overestimated my chances of survival."
Wang Ping shook his head and sighed again.
It looked like this wave of trouble would happen around a thousand five hundred years later. He was sure to be found and hunted down by then.
Sure, here's the translation of the text in English while maintaining the original formatting and tone:
"It's uncertain whether this time will change."
"Even if it does, it will probably only be earlier."
As Wang Ping contemplated this, the system's voice rang out once again.
"Ding, the rewards have been generated successfully. The host can choose two rewards from the following options:
1. Fourth Stage of the True God Realm cultivation.
2. Purple Talent - Substitute Puppet.
3. Demonic Stone (from the Mo Family Young Master).
4. Random Divine Artifact."
"System, I choose 1. Fourth Stage of the True God Realm cultivation and 2. Purple Talent - Substitute Puppet," Wang Ping declared after considering the rewards.
In an instant, Wang Ping felt a new talent and method of using it added to himself. Additionally, his cultivation began to soar.
Fourth Stage of the True God Realm!
Third Stage of the True God Realm!
Fourth Stage of the True God Realm!
"Fourth Stage of the True God Realm is already equivalent to the mid-stage of the True God Realm. It's much stronger than the first stage. Now, even without triggering the critical hit effect of the Purple Talent - Endless Blade, I can unleash greater destructive power. Of course, if I do trigger a critical hit, it'll be even more satisfying," Wang Ping remarked as he sensed the changes in his cultivation and nodded in satisfaction.
Although the Fourth Stage of the True God Realm was still far from the peak cultivation of the True God Realm he had in the previous simulation, it was the most suitable level for his current state. It would allow him to reduce the cost of paid simulations while still being strong enough to contend for Holy Medicine.
"Next, I should go find the ancient tomb and acquire more cultivation resources."
After his contemplation, Wang Ping's figure moved, and spatial ripples appeared. He disappeared from the inn in an instant.
Not long after, Wang Ping arrived at the location of the tomb of a Divine Sovereign Realm expert. With a wave of his hand, he located the array concealing the space and easily found it. Then, he used his spatial technique again to enter without triggering the array.
Although Wang Ping could easily break the array, there was no need for that.
Inside, he disregarded the ordinary resources of the small world and went straight to the stone coffin, lifting its lid.
As he opened the coffin, the consciousness of the Divine Sovereign expert from the tomb awakened, looking at Wang Ping with surprise.
He had thought that another Divine Sovereign expert had intruded but was surprised to find only a True God.
"You managed to enter without disturbing the array I set up? Junior, your abilities are quite astonishing," the consciousness of the Divine Sovereign expert said with amazement when he sensed the array's condition.
"Senior, I apologize for disturbing your slumber. However, I lack cultivation resources. If you're willing to provide me with some items, I'll leave immediately," Wang Ping said politely, bowing slightly.
"You're straightforward. I can give you some items, but I'm curious how you managed to enter," the consciousness of the Divine Sovereign expert said with a smile.
"How did I enter?" Wang Ping smiled faintly, then activated the laws of space. He said, "I've gained some insights into the laws of space."
The consciousness of the Divine Sovereign expert was dumbfounded when he felt the space laws Wang Ping had activated.
"Space laws? You call this 'insights'? No, wait..."
Soon, the consciousness of the Divine Sovereign expert fully woke up, with a helpless and rueful expression, as he became more humble. "I didn't expect you to be a Saint who has come to re-cultivate. I apologize for my disrespectful behavior earlier."
Though he had already passed away, his reverence for Saints was deeply ingrained, and he feared Wang Ping would erase his remains.
Previously, he had shown disrespect to Wang Ping by referring to himself as "senior" and "this seat" before a Saint. Wang Ping's actions had revealed that he had comprehended the laws of space, a level of power that was unthinkable for a Divine Sovereign expert.
After apologizing, the consciousness of the Divine Sovereign expert handed over the items he had left behind in his tomb.
Wang Ping accepted them without further ado and stored them in his spatial storage.
"You can continue your slumber. I have other matters to attend to. I will take my leave," Wang Ping said and used his spatial technique to disappear once more.
This left the consciousness of the Divine Sovereign expert astonished and somewhat envious.
In his lifetime, he hadn't achieved sainthood, remaining just an ordinary Divine Sovereign expert. He hadn't even encountered a Saint.
Now, even after his death, he had the opportunity to meet and interact with a Saint, experiencing the profound mysteries of the laws of the universe up close, which somewhat made up for his regrets.
"If there is a next life, I hope to become a Saint," the consciousness of the Divine Sovereign expert sighed and dissipated into the void.
As for Wang Ping, he returned to the inn in the White Flame Divine City and planned to continue the simulation.
"System, I'm going for a paid simulation now. How much Low-Grade Divine Source do I need?" Wang Ping inquired in his mind.
"Ding, the host's cultivation has reached the Fourth Stage of the True God Realm. The required Low-Grade Divine Source for the simulation is three hundred jin," the system's voice responded.
This amount caused Wang Ping to raise an eyebrow. He had expected it to be lower, considering that he had only advanced from the First to the Fourth Stage of the True God Realm, which was just a tenfold increase.
Now, from the First Stage of the True God Realm, advancing to the Fourth Stage of the True God Realm actually requires three hundred jin of Low-Grade Divine Source, a threefold increase.
Recalling the past situations, Wang Ping pondered, feeling that the consumption of the Life Simulator's paid simulation seemed to be not a fixed increment but rather based on his current situation.
If he had more resources on hand, the cost would be higher.
Furthermore, when he had no divine source in the mortal realm, he used Wang Artifacts and Emperor Artifacts as the cost for the paid simulation.
"Life Simulator, should I say you're ruthless, or should I say you're considerate of the host."
With these thoughts in mind, Wang Ping shook his head and muttered to himself.
"System, I want to proceed with a paid simulation."
Immediately, Wang Ping calmed his thoughts and spoke in his mind.
Although it was expensive, he now possessed over ten thousand jin of Low-Grade Divine Source, enough for over thirty simulations. Wang Ping wasn't particularly concerned about the price.
Moreover, he could still try to make Xu Yi undergo multiplication later and attempt to obtain more resources.
"Ding, consuming three hundred jin of Low-Grade Divine Source, Life Simulator activated, talent refreshing."
The system's voice rang out.
"Ding, talent refreshing successful. Congratulations to the host for refreshing the Red Talent - Life and Death Limit."
Red Talent - Life and Death Limit: With this talent, the host's probability of breaking through life and death limits will increase. However, the host will develop a preference for attempting breakthroughs during life and death situations, pushing oneself beyond limits even further.
"Well, it seems I'm in for some bad luck again," Wang Ping sighed as he looked at the talent that had just refreshed.
This time, he only refreshed one Red Talent.
Although this talent seemed decent, it would alter his personality and was excessively extreme.
This time, he might be in for some rough times.
As expected, as the simulation began, Wang Ping embarked on another series of reckless adventures.
In the end, he couldn't even preserve his own life and was defeated.
Although he had forced himself into life and death situations several times, gaining some breakthroughs and comprehending Saint-level divine abilities, it was actually unnecessary.
After all, in the previous simulations, Wang Ping had spent most of his time on improving his cultivation, pausing in the process of enlightenment, self-creating techniques, and divine abilities.
Otherwise, if he devoted more time and shifted his focus, creating a Saint-level divine ability would be just a matter of time.
After all, the enlightenment brought by the Space-Time Dao Physique was terrifying.
Although it was an incomplete Space-Time Dao Physique, it was still formidable and not something ordinary constitutions could compare to.
"Ding, rewards generated successfully. The host can choose one reward from the following options:
1. Fifth Stage of the True God Realm cultivation.
2. Red Talent - Life and Death Limit.
3. Demonic Stone (from the Mo Family Young Master).
4. Random Divine Artifact."
"System, I choose 3. Demonic Stone."
Wang Ping made his choice after looking at the rewards.
"Ding, reward selection successful."
The system's voice sounded, and Wang Ping felt an additional Demonic Stone in his storage space, emitting a sinister aura.
"Next, I can't continue the simulation; I need to take it slow. Otherwise, I'll definitely face a series of misfortunes again."
Wang Ping had gained experience and wouldn't recklessly continue the simulation. Instead, he made a rational choice to take a break for a while.
In the blink of an eye, three months had passed.
During these three months, Wang Ping hadn't encountered any major events; he focused on quiet cultivation and occasionally completed some group tasks.
Perhaps because of Wang Ping and the group members' increased strength, the difficulty of the tasks had also risen.
With increased task difficulty came stronger enemies and naturally, more group points to be earned.
During these three months, everyone had been racking up substantial points.
As the strongest member and someone eligible for additional dividends, Wang Ping earned even more.
His group points had now approached a total of 250 million.
However, Alpha had never revealed how many group points were needed for the next optimization of the Life Simulator, nor any other conditions. Wang Ping had no choice but to continue accumulating group points.
At the same time, Wang Ping was aware that even if Alpha disclosed the required amount of group points, he probably wouldn't receive a discount coupon again.
After all, even the previous optimization had required a hundred million group points, so the next one would likely cost at least a billion.
A discount from a hundred billion down to ten billion was already a substantial cut into Alpha's profits.
In fact, it was questionable whether Alpha had the capacity to allocate ninety billion group points for him.
In any case, Wang Ping thought it was best to continue earning group points. After all, group points were the foundation of this world, and even though he didn't know of any other uses yet, having more was always better.
"Ding, detection of group member Luo Weiguo (85) in a world displaying anomalies. Group task issued: Eradicate Anomalies. This group task is mandatory with a team size of five. After selecting the group members, the acting group leader, Wang Ping, is advised to proceed to the task world to eliminate the anomalies."
Just as Wang Ping had emerged from his cultivation, a notification from the chat group system sounded, catching his attention.
"More anomalies? Looks like this time it's a tricky one; otherwise, they wouldn't have specified me."
Wang Ping muttered to himself.
After the chat group underwent significant changes, the combat capabilities of the group members had skyrocketed. As a result, some minor anomalies no longer required his personal intervention.
After all, the increased combat power of the group members, combined with Wang Ping's ability to predict the future through the Life Simulator, as well as his ability to scan the entire planet with his spiritual sense or divine consciousness, made it easy to detect unusual areas and identify anomalies and who was behind them.
Only extremely powerful anomalies still required Wang Ping's direct involvement.
Because such anomalies couldn't be dealt with by sheer power alone, and even with information and power, they might not be killable.
Thinking of this, Wang Ping opened the chat group and entered the main page.
Wang Ping (66): "This mission is definitely going to be challenging. Who is willing to participate in the group task?"
Zhang Hu (5): "Lao Luo's world is different from others. The power levels are still quite high. I won't join in and just slow everyone down. This kind of group task requires members with special golden fingers."
Chen Yao (71): "Even with the help of Yuan Yuan, the strengthening of group points, and the resources provided by Brother Wang, I've become a quasi-god. But this level of power is still insufficient. I won't go either."
Wu Jun (20): "I, I, I, I'll definitely go!"
Cai Yonglong (1): "The usual rule, I'll go too!"
Chen Si (83): "This time, I want to go too. QwQ."
Chen Kang (67): "If my sister is going, I'll go too."
Liu
Mei (15): "I'd like to go, but with so many people signing up, I'll pass."
Qin Tian (77): "Am I out of a spot for this mission?!"
Ye Xiaofan (75): "Congratulations, you've been successfully eliminated."
Qin Tian (77): "."
Wang Ping (66): "Alright, this time it's me, Cai Yonglong, Chen Si, Chen Kang, and Wu Jun participating in the group task."
Ignoring the banter from Qin Tian and Ye Xiaofan, Wang Ping directly confirmed the group task members.
(End of this chapter)
