118 – Uncovering a Thousand-year old Secret! The Emperor of Judgement!

Wang Ping sighed once again.

When will my luck shine bright again?

If I could refresh my talents to obtain the Blue Root Bone or Blue Comprehension talents, that would be fantastic.

Perhaps, with such talents, the grade of the Profound Elixir I condense could also be higher.

While Wang Ping had these myriad thoughts in his mind, his vision shifted, and he appeared in an unfamiliar place.

Then, he witnessed the entire process of his breakthrough.

He tried to fuse the Five Elements Spiritual Essence within him to condense a Profound Elixir. The process was incredibly risky.

Ultimately, he failed. The elixir exploded, and he died completely.

This was even worse than the breakthrough of Seven Star Palace Ancestor Nangong Yun.

At least, Seven Star Palace Ancestor Nangong Yun left behind an incomplete Profound Elixir. However, Wang Ping, due to the excessive strength of his Five Elements Spiritual Essence, ended up blowing himself into ashes when the elixir he was condensing exploded, sinking a remote barren island along with him.

In the end, nothing was left, only startling a group of sea monsters.

‘This breakthrough… it’s indeed very dangerous. And this didn’t even include the tribulation. Once the Profound Elixir is formed, one must undergo a tribulation and face the heavenly cleansing.’

Wang Ping’s vision returned to normal, and he sighed inwardly.

‘Ding, reward generation in progress. The host can choose two from the following rewards:

①. Half-step Profound Elixir Realm cultivation.
②. Alchemy experience.
③. Heaven-grade Superior Cultivation Method: Bloodthirsty Demon Art.
④. Combat experience.
⑤. White Talent: Outgoing Personality.’

‘No need to hesitate on this one. Naturally, it’s ② and ③.’

Wang Ping said in his heart.

As Wang Ping made his choice, an immense torrent of memories surged into his mind, leaving him entranced.

After who knows how long, Wang Ping finally recovered, marveling inwardly.

The experience of an eighth-grade alchemist is indeed far superior to that of a seventh-grade alchemist.

However, he had only just reached the level of an eighth-grade alchemist, and the success rate of refining eighth-grade pills was not very high.

This, even with the Five Elements Spirit Flames; without them, the success rate would be even lower.

‘However, to refine eighth-grade pills, I also need a better alchemy furnace. Otherwise, an ordinary furnace can’t withstand the terrifying medicinal power and flames.’

Wang Ping muttered to himself.

‘Never mind, to get an alchemy furnace, I would need to make a trip back to the Seven Star Archipelago. And even then, I might not find a furnace that meets my requirements at the Seven Star Archipelago. It’s likely only at Sacred Heart Island that I could barely find one up to standard. This back-and-forth is too troublesome. After all, I’m not in a rush to refine pills in the real world, so there’s no urgency for this.’

‘Next, I need to consider how to develop the chat group.’

Wang Ping didn’t continue with the simulations but instead pondered on the issue of developing the chat group.

This was equally significant to Wang Ping.

After all, since he was selected and could reap huge benefits from it, he had to fully develop the chat group.

Otherwise, if he remained indifferent like before, leading to high death rates among group members and slow growth, there would certainly be problems.

In the future, battling the pawns cultivated by the various forces of the heavens, it would never be a simple one-on-one. The group’s strength had to keep up to avoid the fate of being overwhelmed.

Thus, a very good development plan was a must.

‘Alpha, do I have the authority to set new chat group functions?’

After some thought, Wang Ping tried asking in his mind.

‘You can propose, if the suggestion is good, I will use the world’s origin to create the new group function.’

Alpha’s cold voice echoed in Wang Ping’s ear.

‘Alright, with your word, I’m reassured.’
Wang Ping nodded with satisfaction.

Wang Ping’s biggest worry was that Alpha would just want to freeload and do nothing, which would give him a headache.

After all, even if he came up with ideas, if Alpha was too stingy, he would just be watching helplessly.

As long as he’s given the authority, he can manage things better.

A day later, after Wang Ping had Alpha implement new group functions, he opened the chat group.

At this moment, the chat group was still quite lively.

Because the situations of the five newcomers had already been figured out.

Chen Si’s world turned out to be the same martial arts world as Fang Yun’s.

The reason they knew this was because the location where Chen Si ventured through wasn’t far from the meteorite impact site, and that’s what he heard from the villagers.

Incidentally, Chen Si’s Golden Finger is an ability called Weakness.

After using it, he can weaken a designated target for one minute, cutting its strength in half.

To be honest, this ability is quite a game-changer, unless the opponent’s strength reaches a certain level, they would all be halved.

Although Chen Si can only use this ability once a day with a cooldown of twenty-four hours, it is still formidable.

Of course, since Chen Si’s world is the same martial arts world Fang Yun is in, it’s a bit troublesome, because the power limit of that world is too low.

Back then, Fang Yun was stuck because of this.

If it was the previous chat group, Chen Si probably wouldn’t be able to become a strong person in his lifetime.

However, Wang Ping thinks it’s necessary to focus on cultivating this newcomer Chen Si.

If used well, this ability can definitely allow a reversal of the situation. Therefore, it’s important to help Chen Si grow.

Luo Weiguo, the first to choose a soul traversal, went to a world with an ancient background.

However, whether there are special powers is unclear.

For now, Luo Weiguo is still trying to make a living at home and hasn’t had the chance to uncover the mysteries of that world.

Xu Yi has been very cautious in not revealing his Golden Finger.

As for the world he crossed over to, it’s very unique and piqued Wang Ping’s interest.

Because he crossed over to Earth.

But, although it is called Earth, it is actually a parallel world dozens of times larger than Earth.

It is a world invaded by Western gods.

That world has powerful extraordinary forces.

The most important point is that there’s an instant upgrade method in that world.

If a mortal kills a god, they can steal the god’s power and replace them.

According to the information Xu Yi gathered, even the weakest gods have the power to destroy mountains.

Those powerful gods can easily wipe out a country the size of Sakura Nation with a single attack, exceptionally powerful.

And this is when the truly terrifying gods from the myths haven’t even descended yet.

The god-kings of various pantheons, like the Twelve Olympian Gods of Greece, show no signs of descending. Once they do, it’s questionable whether that world will be destroyed.

As for Zhao Sihan, the poor girl who turned into a cat, the world she crossed over to also seems to be Earth in the 21st century.

Except, it isn’t an ordinary Earth, but one in the early stages of spiritual energy revival. She has no idea how many strong people there are or what the power system looks like.

After all, it’s been hard enough for her just to survive as a cat.

Incidentally, Zhao Sihan also mentioned her Golden Finger.

Her Golden Finger, which sounds quite ordinary, might not be so ordinary.

It’s called Wild Growth, and it can help her grow quickly. If her wildness is sufficient, it can also enhance her combat power.

The last newcomer, Zhang Yueying, crossed over to a world that isn’t ordinary either.

It is a world similar to a zombie apocalypse.

However, the monsters in that world weren’t zombies, and the virus that appeared wasn’t a zombie virus, but another kind of virus.

That was a terrifying virus named JY virus in her world.

Once infected with this virus, genes would be rewritten and reshaped, turning the person into a monster.

If the virus carried the genes of other animals during its transmission, the resulting monsters would exhibit characteristics of those animals, becoming hybrid beasts.

These monsters were collectively termed as mutant beasts by the people of that world.

Mutant beasts possessed horrific regenerative abilities.

Higher-level mutant beasts had perverse super-speed regeneration. Unless they were dealt with using special equipment and powers surpassing their regenerative limits, it was impossible to kill them.

In that world, humans could only cower within barriers made of materials that mutant beasts loathed, barely surviving and waiting for an unknown doomsday.

It was, indeed, a very dark and desperate world.

As for Zhang Yueying’s awakened Golden Finger, it might be the most ordinary Golden Finger that had appeared so far, only granting her immunity from virus infection.

Honestly, Wang Ping himself had refreshed a talent of immunity to all poisons through his Life Simulator, which had similar effects.

Of course, the upper limit of Zhang Yueying’s Golden Finger was probably higher.

After all, it was a talent ability manifested by the essence of the world, so the upper limit wouldn’t be too low.

However, Wang Ping was pondering whether Zhang Yueying was worth nurturing.

Wang Ping (66) @Everyone: “If nothing unexpected happens, the chat group indeed starts to value the members’ lives and plans to seriously cultivate them. However, the chat group system also hinted at the enemies we’ll encounter next and the tasks we need to complete.”

Zhang Hu (5): “Holy shit, Brother Wang, what does this mean?”

Zhang Jun (70): “Is it really like this… Brother Wang, please explain in detail.”

Wang Ping (66): “Our chances of encountering anomalies in other worlds will be reduced in the future. But comparatively, we will face strong enemies cultivated by powerful entities like the Lord God’s Space and
Reincarnation Space, and we have to eliminate them in the worlds they invade.”

Wu Jun (20): “Holy shit, does the Lord God’s Space really exist?”

Qin Tian (77): “Isn’t that obvious? Since even the chat group exists, it’s reasonable for the Lord God’s Space to exist too.”

Wu Jun (20): “Uh, that seems to make sense.”

Ye Xiaofan (75): “Although we won’t face anomalies with all sorts of bizarre abilities… the reincarnators from the Lord God’s Space won’t be easy to deal with either.”

Wang Shuqing (74): “Relatively speaking, it’s still much better. I feel like our chat group follows an elite path. The Lord God’s Space follows the mass-production route.”

Xu Yi (84): “If it is like how it is described in the novels about the Lord God’s Space, then it’s indeed so. However, the real situation remains uncertain.”

Wang Ping (66): “There’s no need to overthink. We can’t change much; the tasks remain the same. However, our chat group also needs some reforms to improve the survival abilities of the members. Moreover, I hope all members grow faster.”

Wu Yueming (79): “Brother Wang is right! I support Brother Wang’s statement.”

Lin Yuanyuan (80): “So, Brother Wang, how do you plan to reform specifically?”

Wang Ping (66): “I proposed some suggestions to the chat group system, and they were approved. Hence, several new functions will be added to the chat group. The first function is the resurrection function. This function allows the resurrection of specified members through the consumption of group points. However, the stronger the member, the more difficult the resurrection. Also, the one who proposes the resurrection needs to consume their group points, so it requires careful consideration. By the way, even members who have long died can be resurrected, but the longer the time, the more group points will be consumed.”

Wang Ping explained.

This function was to prevent potential members from dying unexpectedly. Even if they died accidentally, they could at least be brought back.

Otherwise, the accidental death of such high-potential members would be too unfortunate.

Besides this, Wang Ping also had some personal concerns, worried that he might encounter accidents in the future and thus retain a hope for resurrection.

This function consumed a lot of the world’s essence. Although it was paid by the members, the total consumption was too high, and not much group points could be earned.

Honestly, Alpha almost didn’t agree, but Wang Ping persuaded her after much effort.

Liu Mei (15): “Brother Wang can now directly communicate with the chat group system? That’s so awesome…”

Zhang Hu (5): “Holy shit, the group function proposed by Brother Wang is excellent! It’s amazing!”

Not just Zhang Hu, everyone else was overjoyed.

With this group function, there was now hope for resurrection even after death, which was extremely gratifying.

Wang Ping (66): “I just borrowed the resurrection system from the Lord God’s Space; it’s nothing really. But it’s indeed a nice benefit. As for the resurrected members, they’ll have to repay the debt. Now, let me talk about the second group function.”

Wang Ping (66): “The second group function is the Martial Arts Field. Members can fight and practice as much as they want in it. Additionally, members can have gambling battles for group points. It also has cultivation rooms where one can cultivate the powers of other worlds. By consuming group points, members can improve their cultivation efficiency. This function is suitable for members whose traversed worlds aren’t very strong.”

Ye Xiaofan (75): “This group’s functionality is pretty good for nurturing newcomers.”

Wang Ping (66): “The third point isn’t actually a new group functionality. It’s my personal suggestion. You can upload all the basic cultivation methods from various worlds, allowing newcomers to choose their paths. Of course, these are just basics. If they want to learn more advanced techniques, they can purchase items you put for sale in the system mall. This way, it helps in training future newcomers while also increasing your income. Besides that, like we reformed earlier, you can prepare more low-level resources.”

Qin Tian (77): “I have no issues. I’d even give them advanced techniques directly. As for other materials, they aren’t worth much anyway…”

Zhang Jun (70): “Giving things directly is definitely a no-go. We can’t let newcomers always receive without effort. We can help them through the early stages quickly, but later on, they have to rely on themselves. After all, that’s how everyone here has made it so far. With few people now, there won’t be much trouble. But when the group grows, it will be a problem if rules aren’t set.”

Qin Tian (77): “Uh, okay…”

Wang Ping (66): “Zhang Jun has a point. However, as the acting leader and an alchemist, I naturally have to take care of the group members. So, I will include first and second-grade pills in the newbies’ starter packs. As for pills beyond the second grade, I’ll sell them at the lowest possible price to ensure everyone has access to them.”

Being an alchemist, coupled with easy level-ups through the Life Simulator, he had a lot of time to make pills, making sure they were abundant.

Even if it’s low-profit, when the group members increase in number, he could still rake in considerable profits through pill-making, aiding the group’s growth—a win-win situation.

By then, his reputation would skyrocket, allowing him to manage the group better.

Zhang Jun (70): “Since Brother Wang put it this way, I’ll also prepare more mid and low-level crystals. The low-level ones will be in the starter packs as before, and the mid-level ones can be sold at low prices.”

Seeing Wang Ping and Zhang Jun speak up, the other group members started thinking about what they could offer in large quantities—something not too rare yet helpful.

In the end, they all fell silent.

Well, except for scrolls and magical items, they really didn’t have much else… They could only watch.

Wang Ping (66): “Alright, that’s it for now. If anyone has more suggestions for developing the group and boosting the growth and survival rates of its members, feel free to speak up. If reasonable, the group will definitely consider them.”

Chen Yao (71): “I think this is fine for now. Rushing reforms and development might lead to putting the cart before the horse. After all, haste makes waste…”

Xu Yi (84): “Even though I’m new here, I agree with Sister Chen Yao.”

Wang Ping (66): “Alright then, we’ll stick with this for now.”

After Wang Ping said this, he logged off.

Just like Chen Yao said, haste makes waste. Slow and steady wins the race.

Reforming too much at once wasn’t something Alpha was keen on either; she was reluctant to spend the limited source of the world.

Half a month later, after making some pills, Wang Ping planned to continue simulating.

Half a month had passed, and he felt his streak of bad luck might have finally ended.

It was time to refresh and get some strong talents in the simulation.

“System, I want to perform a paid simulation,” Wang Ping said in his mind.

“Ding, purchase successful. Life Simulator activated. Refreshing talents…”

The system’s voice chimed.

“Ding, talent refresh successful. Congratulations to the host for acquiring the blue talent ‘Hidden Dragon Stance.'”

Blue Talent: Hidden Dragon Stance – Your talent will become extraordinary, comparable to that of heirs of major sects.

“Whoa…”

Wang Ping was genuinely astonished upon seeing this refreshed talent.

This time, luck was really on his side… it was exactly what he needed.

The blue talent ‘Hidden Dragon Stance’ could substantially compensate for his innate deficiencies.

It should be noted that these heirs of major sects, with their powerful legacies and mentorship, had the potential to reach the Life and Death Realm. Their talents were immensely strong, far beyond what ordinary cultivators could achieve.

Although Wang Ping previously lacked a mentor, his cultivation methods were not inferior to those of major sect heirs.

Yet, he still struggled at the half-step Profound Elixir Realm, unable to successfully form a core.

In other words, the talent of these major sect heirs significantly surpassed his. Even if they became isolated cultivators, with heaven-level techniques, they could easily become Profound Elixir Realm experts.

Though they might not form premium-grade cores, forming mid-grade ones should be effortless, still with prospects of reaching the Yin-Yang Realm.

Nevertheless, for those great sect heirs who turn into isolated cultivators, reaching the Life and Death Realm would likely be a steep challenge.

Of course, exceptions exist. Some highly talented individuals, even as isolated cultivators, manage to become Life and Death Realm powerhouses and establish their own sects.

“With this talent, forming a core in the Profound Elixir Realm is essentially guaranteed. I just wonder what grade of core I’ll form…”
Wang Ping’s eyes shone brightly, filled with anticipation.

Although he hadn’t planned on using his cultivation power before finding a method to condense a first-grade Profound Elixir, if the Wang Ping in the simulation could break through to the Profound Elixir Realm, his strength would once again skyrocket, allowing him to see a wider sky and gain more opportunities.

In that case, the information he could learn would increase, and his perspective would broaden significantly—its importance was self-evident.

“Ding, Talent successfully loaded, Life Simulation begins.”

The System’s voice sounded.

Immediately after, a familiar screen appeared, and text began to float, drawing Wang Ping’s focused attention.

【Day 1, you diligently practice cultivation.】

【In the fifth year, you break through to the mid-stage of the Spirit Nurturing Realm.】

【In the fifteenth year, you break through to the late stage of the Spirit Nurturing Realm.】

【In the twentieth year, you wreak havoc in the Seventh Star Secret Realm, gaining numerous benefits. Then, you head to Sacred Heart Island, revealing your identity as an eighth-grade alchemist, and easily acquire the materials to refine the seventh-grade Soul Nourishing Pill, using it to break through to the Major Perfection of the Spirit Nurturing Realm.】

“???”

Wang Ping was stunned as he read the start of the simulation.

Goodness, this talent enhancement is terrifying.

Previously, it took one hundred and forty years, and several opportunities, to break through to the Major Perfection of the Spirit Nurturing Realm. But this time, it only took twenty years.

This is absurd.

It seems that this blue talent, the Hidden Dragon Stance, not only includes physical aptitude but also improves all aspects of cultivation, be it soul refining or magical power.

This is incredibly powerful.

“It looks like I’ll reach the half-step Profound Elixir Realm at an unimaginable speed this time, then break through to the Profound Elixir Realm. But from this, I can infer how monstrous the cultivation speed of the great sect descendants and holy land disciples is— their conditions are beyond ordinary cultivators’ imagination. The gap between ordinary cultivators and great sect descendants is understandable.”

Wang Ping pondered to himself while continuing to gaze at the screen.

【Then, you return to the Profound Turtle Continent, taking Ye Chen and Bai Tianhong with you, repeating the events in your memory.】

【In the thirty-fifth year, you successfully break through to the half-step Profound Elixir Realm and begin to consider condensing the elixir. However, you know that on Sacred Heart Island, it is impossible to condense a high-grade Profound Elixir. Unless you practice the Bloodthirsty Demon Art and devour the power of many cultivators, you can only form a third-grade Profound Elixir. But you also know what the consequences would be. Meanwhile, you don’t have enough strength to hunt down Profound Elixir Realm experts from major powers. You’re not arrogant; you understand that even those old Profound Elixir Realm experts, whose elixir grades are not high, are not easy to deal with.】

【After considering, you decide to leave Sacred Heart Island and head to the Eastern Wilderness. Only in the Eastern Wilderness do you hope to condense a high-grade Profound Elixir.】

【Relying on your strong cultivation, you cross the sea alone, heading for the Eastern Wilderness. During this journey, you encounter many dangers, but due to your cultivation being much stronger than during that memory when you traveled with Bing Ningyue, you manage to cross the sea without incident and set foot on the land of the Eastern Wilderness.】

【You know that you carry the aura of the Profound Turtle, and you must not be detected by people from the great sects. Therefore, you cautiously gather information and finally, safely identify the area where you’ve landed.】

【The place you landed is a remote, coastal area of the Sword Domain in the Eastern Wilderness, ruled by the Heavenly Sea Kingdom. The Heavenly Sword Holy Land is the absolute overlord within the ten domains of the Eastern Wilderness’ Sword Domain, ruling over the entire Sword Domain, standing high above.】

However, the Sword Domain is vast, and the Heavenly Sword Holy Land cannot fully control all places. They don’t have enough manpower, and it’s too cumbersome to manage everything. Therefore, within the Sword Domain, there are many countries of various sizes. All these countries are subordinate to the Heavenly Sword Holy Land and must pay tribute annually.】

【The Heavenly Sword Holy Land doesn’t concern itself with wars between its subordinate nations, but it only allows nations of the same level to fight each other. The strong cannot bully the weak. However, if forces from other domains interfere, bullying the subordinate nations, the Heavenly Sword Holy Land will take action.】

【And the land where you arrived is the Heavenly Sea Kingdom, one of the nations in the Sword Domain. Heavenly Sea Kingdom is only a mid-level country, not a major power. Yet, even so, there are Life and Death Realm experts in Heavenly Sea Kingdom.】

【After gathering this information, you are shocked. The Eastern Wilderness has too many powerful forces. Even a remote coastal country like this has a Life and Death Realm expert—it is terrifying. However, you also know that in Heavenly Sea Kingdom, Life and Death Realm experts rarely reveal themselves and are considered the nation’s elder ancestors.】

【Therefore, within Heavenly Sea Kingdom, the top experts on the surface are powerhouses at the Yin-Yang Mirror level, who are also Heavenly Sea Kingdom’s ancestors and the sect leaders and grand elders of various major forces, numbering few. In such a scenario, Profound Elixir Realm cultivators are considered strong, respected, and revered when traveling.】

【After memorizing the distribution of power and the number of top experts in Heavenly Sea Kingdom, you begin to plan your next move. To break through to the Profound Elixir Realm and condense a high-grade Profound Elixir, at least a ninth-grade treasure elixir or precious ninth-grade medicinal herb—or even a tenth-grade elixir—would be necessary.】

【Of course, you believe you have a slim chance of obtaining a ninth-grade medicinal herb. As for the tenth-grade, you have no such thought. Because that is something only Life and Death Realm and Nirvana Realm experts qualify to possess and is extremely rare.】

【As for miraculous items above the tenth grade, you wouldn’t even dare to think about them. It is rumored that such treasures, even in holy lands, are rare.】

【In the next ten years, you search for various opportunities in the Heavenly Sea Kingdom. Unfortunately, you gain nothing. Ninth-grade and eighth-grade rare treasures are uncommon even in Heavenly Sea Kingdom, and medicinal herbs that could enhance the core grade are even rarer.】

【During these ten years, you continuously perceive Sword Intent, trying to grasp its mysteries. Unfortunately, although you have enough talent, without a master to guide you, taking that step is exceedingly difficult.】

【This situation makes you very distressed. You know clearly that you have enough talent and strength, and the only reason you’re wasting time here is the influence of your Profound Turtle aura. Without this restriction, you would have more methods to find opportunities and wouldn’t be so restrained and cautious, afraid of being discovered by Profound Elixir Realm experts born in great sects of the Heavenly Sea Kingdom.】

【In this scenario, you hear that the Ziyue Secret Realm of the Heavenly Sea Kingdom is about to open. Legend has it that the Ziyue Secret Realm was created by a Nirvana Realm expert and opens every three hundred years, containing great secrets. Your heart is moved, knowing that if you miss this opportunity, the chance to condense a high-grade Profound Elixir will be slim.】

【However, you know that if you really try to enter, it will be extremely dangerous, with over ninety percent chance of falling inside. Ultimately, you resolve that wandering aimlessly with a weak Dao heart will doom you to be stuck at the Profound Elixir Realm despite opportunities.】

【You hide your identity and aura and decide to head there. Upon arriving at a distant mountain from the Ziyue Forest, you see numerous cultivators already present, each exuding powerful auras. Among them, Profound Elixir Realm experts are everywhere, and even Yin-Yang Mirror powerhouses are abundant. You become cautious, knowing that being discovered by them would be disastrous.】

【Therefore, you decide to wait until this group of people enters, then follow.】

“Unfortunately, human plans can’t compare to heaven’s will. Before you could enter, you were sensed by the Spiritual Sense of the Ancestor of Heavenly Sea Kingdom. He felt the aura of the Profound Turtle on you and captured you.

You were both shocked and angry, realizing you had no power to resist. You knew things had gone terribly wrong.

As you despairingly shouted ‘offspring of the Sin Blood,’ wondering if they were truly unforgivable, you were ready to self-destruct. At that moment, the Ancestor of Heavenly Sea Kingdom told you not to panic, saying he had no intention of harming you… You were extremely surprised and didn’t understand.

The Ancestor of Heavenly Sea Kingdom explained. Although many great sects hated the ‘offspring of the Sin Blood,’ he felt nothing about it. The major event a thousand years ago had nothing to do with his kingdom; he wasn’t born yet, and Heavenly Sea Kingdom hadn’t appeared. Therefore, he had nothing to hate. Only those ancient sects with long histories were extremely hostile toward the ‘offspring of the Sin Blood,’ even implicating innocent people.

You were astonished, realizing that the secret of the ‘offspring of the Sin Blood’ was finally about to be revealed. You began asking the elder about the ‘offspring of the Sin Blood.’ The elder recalled the contents recorded in ancient books and answered your ‘questions.’ A thousand-year-old secret gradually unfolded from the elder’s storytelling.

It turned out that a thousand years ago, the Blood Demon Clan outside the Purple Spirit Realm suddenly invaded, killing many cultivators of the realm and devouring their power, even destroying a holy land. This shook the whole Purple Spirit Realm.

To fight against the powerful and brutal Blood Demon Clan, the entire Purple Spirit Realm united, with most of the cultivators above the Profound Elixir Realm participating in the battle against the Blood Demons.

During the final battle, the Blood Demon Clan sent out many strong warriors. The Demon Emperor of the Blood Demon Clan faced off against the Emperor of Judgement, who was the strongest in the Purple Spirit Realm at the time. That battle darkened the skies.

It was rumored that the Emperor of Judgement and the Demon Emperor fought each other to a standstill. In the final moments, the Emperor of Judgement, fearing death, fled the battlefield and escaped to the Profound Turtle Continent.

After the Emperor of Judgement deserted his post, the morale of the army faltered, and many cultivators in the Purple Spirit Realm were nearly wiped out. Fortunately, someone emerged from the void, displaying terrifying power to repel the Blood Demon Clan. Otherwise, the Purple Spirit Realm might have become the territory of the Blood Demon Clan, with many races becoming their blood food slaves.

Rumor had it that what infuriated people even more was that some of the Emperor of Judgement’s associates also escaped to the back of the oceanic Profound Turtle, far away from the Eastern Wilderness, to evade responsibility and prevent their extermination.

This incited extreme anger among the surviving cultivators from the great battle, who believed that the Emperor of Judgement and his associates were ‘offspring of the Sin Blood,’ to be exterminated upon discovery.

You were shocked, not expecting such events to have occurred. Then you asked if any powerful individuals had pursued them to the Profound Turtle’s location.

The Ancestor of Heavenly Sea Kingdom answered your question. Naturally, there were. Although many strong warriors fell after the great battle, many remained. Strong warriors from sacred lands collectively descended, demanding the Profound Turtle hand over the Emperor of Judgement and his associates.

However, the Profound Turtle ignored them. Ultimately, many strong warriors united to attack the Profound Turtle. Unfortunately, the Profound Turtle is a unique existence in the Purple Spirit Realm, having lived for untold ages and renowned for its invincible defense. Even the combined assault of many strong warriors couldn’t break its defense, forcing them to retreat in frustration.

After hearing these secrets, you felt uneasy, finally understanding the great secret from a thousand years ago. Yet, doubts remained. Did the Emperor of Judgement truly flee out of fear of death? If he did, why would he lead the battle in the first place?

Additionally, you recalled the terrifying demonic qi appearing on the Profound Turtle Continent, shivering as you speculated that the situation was far more complicated than it seemed.

However, you kept your thoughts to yourself and remained silent. The Ancestor of Heavenly Sea Kingdom shook his head, remarking that you had good talent, and he would have been willing to train you seriously if not for the Profound Turtle aura on you. He said you had the potential to reach the Life and Death Realm someday, but unfortunately, he couldn’t risk the world’s condemnation to protect you.

You thanked him, grateful for his answers, feeling indebted. The Ancestor of Heavenly Sea Kingdom shook his head, telling you not to worry and to be careful. While few forces within the Heavenly Sea Kingdom knew these secrets, any sect that had produced a Life and Death Realm cultivator could access this information and recognize the Profound Turtle’s aura. Since all major sects’ Profound Elixir Realm cultivators must learn the divine abilities to hunt ‘offspring of the Sinful Blood.’

You felt heavy-hearted, knowing that entering the secret realm could mean a gruesome death.

In the end, feeling melancholic, you left, realizing that even Heavenly Sea Kingdom was not a place to stay for long. Silently, you chose to depart and returned to Sacred Heart Island.

Back on Sacred Heart Island, you recognized that forming a high-quality Profound Elixir would likely be impossible in this lifetime. Despondent, you decided to break directly into the Profound Elixir Realm. You successfully broke through to the Profound Elixir Realm. However, due to a flaw in your Dao Heart, you failed in the dangerous breakthrough process and died on the spot.

However, thanks to the Rebirth Talisman, you resurrected. But in this state, you were still in the breakthrough process. Caught off guard, you failed again and blew yourself up once more.

With your death, this simulation ended.

“Oh man, I still failed to break through… It’s really frustrating. But it’s understandable.” Wang Ping sighed as he looked at the simulation’s content.

At least this simulation had finally unveiled the truth about the Profound Turtle Continent and the ‘offspring of the Sin Blood.’

It all stemmed from the Blood Demons’ invasion a thousand years ago.

Blood Demons were indeed not a good lot.

That Blood Demon Cave was likely sealed with Blood Demons and turned into a mid-to-low-level secret realm.

“The Emperor of Judgement… a prominent figure from a thousand years ago… Would he really flee the battlefield out of fear? I truly can’t believe it…” Wang Ping muttered to himself.

To become such a figure, his Dao Heart must have been unbelievably resilient.

However, such an event occurred, and he couldn’t believe there wasn’t a hidden truth.

“Could it be that the Demon Emperor used some anomaly, causing the Emperor of Judgement to fall into demonic possession, compelling him to flee? If so, that would explain the events on the Profound Turtle Continent.”

“The Emperor of Judgement might have become demonic and sealed himself within the Profound Turtle, collaborating with it to jointly repress his demonic thoughts. This would also explain why the Profound Turtle protected the ‘offspring of the Sin Blood.’”

Wang Ping’s eyes sparkled as he analyzed the causes and effects.

The world didn’t know the truth, which led to the hatred towards the Emperor of Judgement and the Profound Turtle.

But it wasn’t entirely unwarranted; Wang Ping only knew so much truth thanks to the Life Simulator.

Of course, there was also the possibility that the Ancestors of various sacred lands knew but still acted as they did.

Because of the numerous casualties, many people needed a scapegoat…’
