123 – Astonishing Rewards! First-class Opportunity!

【After a long time, you finally came back to your senses, sighing inwardly and realizing that the gap between geniuses is perhaps even larger than the gap between geniuses and ordinary people. The world of true geniuses, those protagonists of their eras, may be something you will never set foot in during your lifetime…】

【Zhao Feng was suppressed to the extreme, his state of mind somewhat unstable. However, just as he was about to be killed by Ling Xue, the shadow of a Life and Death Realm expert appeared, blocking Ling Xue’s attack. A terrifying pressure swept the entire arena, and you felt a fatal-like pressure…】

【But Ling Xue merely snorted coldly, and the shadow of another Life and Death Realm expert appeared, confronting the first one. Eventually, the Life and Death Realm expert’s shadow from the Beiyang Sect rescued Zhao Feng and his followers, and the battle came to a halt…】

【With the disappearance of the two Life and Death Realm experts’ shadows, you finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling your whole body relax. At the same time, you silently lamented the difference between you and these people born into great forces. They not only possess extraordinary talent but also practice powerful techniques and martial arts, capable of cultivating Divine Abilities and having the backup plans left by Life and Death Realm experts…】

【Even if some rogue cultivators can match these prodigies in combat strength, or even kill them, what does it matter? These people have various powerful trump cards, any one of which is enough to kill rogue cultivators…】

【In this day and age, if you want to mingle in the world, you need to consider your background. People without a background are really walking on thin ice in this cultivation world…】

【As you felt downcast, Ling Xue was smacking her lips in discontent, regretting not being able to eliminate Zhao Feng, the despicable sneak attacker. You came back to your senses and suggested that he was protected by powerful people, making it hard to kill him…】

【Ling Xue nodded, acknowledging that although it was possible to kill him forcibly, it wasn’t necessary. Zhao Feng posed no threat to her or the Heavenly Sea Kingdom, but if he were killed now, the Beiyang Sect would likely go berserk…】

【After some thought, you remembered the Battle of a Hundred Dynasties, knowing that killing a leading disciple at this point would cause considerable trouble. After all, Zhao Feng is definitely going to participate in the Battle of a Hundred Dynasties. Even if other sect disciples aren’t fully nurtured by the Holy Land, the best they could expect is a position as a deacon…】

【But even without joining the core of the Heavenly Sword Holy Land, competing with many geniuses from the Sword Domain in the Battle of a Hundred Dynasties would bring great benefits, increasing the chances of breaking through to the Life and Death Realm. A stellar performance brings even more benefits to the Beiyang Sect, allowing them to gain fame throughout the Sword Domain…】

【If Zhao Feng died, the Beiyang Sect’s fury would be inevitable, leading to a potential war…】

【However, you also understand that the upcoming inheritance of Nirvana Realm experts and the rare treasures like the Heart of Nirvana will drive Yin-Yang Mirror experts and even Life and Death Realm experts into madness, causing several Life and Death Realm experts to fall. Therefore, killing Zhao Feng might not be a big deal after all…】

【Of course, you also understand that these thoughts cannot be spoken aloud and should be kept to yourself. Ling Xue saw your doubts but didn’t question further…】

【Next, you and Ling Xue continued to explore the secret realm, gaining some benefits. You successfully advanced to the second level of the Profound Elixir Realm, enhancing your combat power. Meanwhile, Ling Xue broke through to the fourth level of the Profound Elixir Realm, reaching a mid-stage level, significantly boosting her combat strength…】

【Shortly after, you and Ling Xue heard loud commotions deep in the Purple Moon Secret Realm, with terrifying energy waves and Divine Abilities sweeping over a large area. Ling Xue was shocked, not expecting such a commotion and wondering what opportunity had emerged…】

【With a vigilant heart, you knew that the real battles had just begun. In this process, Ye Chen would directly snatch the fruits of these strong individuals and leave gracefully…】

【Ling Xue, excited, suggested going to watch the battle. You remembered the records of powerful experts’ skirmishes, whose aftershocks had killed many Profound Elixir Realm experts, and knew that getting too close might leave you dead without even a corpse. You quickly rejected the idea…】

【Understanding your concern, Ling Xue reassured you that they wouldn’t get too close and that she had protective treasures. Unable to refuse Ling Xue, combined with remembering the record of her safe participation and impressive performance in the Battle of a Hundred Dynasties, you knew she wouldn’t die. So you decided to accompany her to observe the skirmish between the Yin-Yang Mirror experts and Life and Death Realm experts…】

【You both arrived at a spot far from the battleground. Ling Xue used a secret technique to observe the situation in the distance, seeing the battle clearly. You marveled at Ling Xue’s abilities, a testament to her prowess as a princess of the Heavenly Sea Kingdom, something rogue cultivators couldn’t compare to…】

【You saw the terrifying battle unfold, with various Divine Abilities being used to their full potential. You estimated that a Life and Death Realm expert, if placed on Earth, might be akin to a nine-star powerhouse, capable of wiping the surface clean in a short time. Their combat power was truly terrifying…】

【Before long, you saw the top experts truly igniting, with forbidden techniques and lethal moves flying one after the other. The usually rare Yin-Yang Mirror experts were starting to fall one by one, and even the Life and Death Realm experts participating in the melee were wounded and bleeding across the sky…】

【Ling Xue’s usually cheerful demeanor vanished, her expression becoming solemn. She realized something was off, as the experts seemed to be strategically teaming up to attack her family’s old ancestor…】

【Despite the Royal Family of the Heavenly Sea Kingdom being the strongest, other forces within the kingdom weren’t weak either. For example, the Beiyang Sect had Life and Death Realm experts, though they only had two such old monsters while the royal family had four.】

【However, even with the Purple Moon Secret Realm opening, not all the royal family’s Life and Death Realm experts could come. This time, only two came, while the Beiyang Sect allied with Fengyuan Gate, which also had Life and Death Realm experts, and an additional rogue Life and Death Realm expert from outside the Heavenly Sea Kingdom, making it three against two. This situation was very dire…】

【Ling Xue, although anxious, couldn’t do anything to help and could only watch helplessly. Then, you saw Ye Chen appear with a changed appearance, unleashing terrifying power. Taking advantage of the deadly clash among several Life and Death Realm experts, he broke into the battlefield, broke through the formation, snatched the Nirvana Realm inheritance and Nirvana Fruit, and left gracefully…】

【All the experts were furious, but they could only watch as Ye Chen left unscathed. The Yin-Yang Mirror experts couldn’t catch up, and the Life and Death Realm experts, having just fought to the death, couldn’t spare the energy…】

【Eventually, the two Life and Death Realm experts from the royal family of the Heavenly Sea Kingdom fell, while the remaining three Life and Death Realm experts were also seriously injured…】

【Watching the direction in which Ye Chen left, you felt a stirring in your heart. Although you knew you might not obtain the Nirvana Fruit, if Ye Chen allowed you to touch it, it would greatly benefit ‘you’…】

【Thus, you parted ways with Ling Xue and pursued Ye Chen. This time, you were very lucky, or it could be that Ye Chen had already sensed your presence and was waiting for you. You successfully found Ye Chen…】

【After some small talk with Ye Chen, you expressed your desire to see the Nirvana Fruit. Ye Chen hesitated but eventually took it out. He trusted you and didn’t think you would try to steal it. Of course, the bigger reason was that he believed even if you had any thoughts, you couldn’t snatch the Nirvana Fruit under his watchful eye…】

【Overjoyed, you looked at the Nirvana Fruit, touching it briefly under Ye Chen’s gaze before quickly letting go. You then said that being able to see such a treasure was worth the trip…】

【Next, Ye Chen invited you to leave the Purple Moon Secret Realm with him. After some thought, you declined, realizing that traveling with Ye Chen in his current situation might lead to becoming cannon fodder, dying without a trace…】

【After rejecting Ye Chen, you started moving alone. However, not long after, you encountered an enraged Yin-Yang Mirror expert. Sensing the Nirvana Fruit’s aura on you, he tried to capture you alive for interrogation. Knowing the gravity of the situation, you immediately triggered the Berserk State and chose self-detonation…】

【With your death, this simulation ends…】

“Goodness, there’s truly no good outcome from associating with Ye Chen…”

Wang Ping’s expression turned peculiar…

“But even among the sacred sons, not everyone can form a first-class Profound Elixir. This might be troublesome…”

Wang Ping pondered this issue with some headache…

He wanted to form a first-class or flawless Profound Elixir, which seemed quite unrealistic…,

“Maybe not necessarily…”

Wang Ping stroked his chin, deep in thought…

His action of touching the Nirvana Fruit in this simulation clearly aimed at obtaining a reward…

If he truly could get a reward, it would be fantastic…

Perhaps, leveraging the Nirvana Fruit, he could form a first-class Profound Elixir…

Even without the first-class, a second-class might be achievable…
As long as I reach second-grade and then use the group points to strengthen once, there is definitely hope to reach first-grade.

“Thinking this way, it seems I don’t need to be anxious at all. After all, I have group points. Group points can strengthen all kinds of things, strengthening a Profound Elixir once is not impossible… Of course, if I use the group points more rationally, I should strengthen my own bone and aptitude.”

Wang Ping’s eyes gleamed, and he muttered to himself.

Immediately, Wang Ping’s vision changed, showing the scene from the simulation where he was caught by a Yin-Yang Mirror master and forced to self-destruct.

Soon, his vision returned to normal.

Right after, the System’s prompt sounded.

“Ding, reward generation successful, the host can choose one of the following rewards: ①. Second layer of Profound Elixir Realm cultivation. ②. Nirvana Fruit. ③. Green Talent: Super-Speed Regeneration. ④. Battle Experience…”

“Damn!”

Looking at these rewards, Wang Ping couldn’t help but curse in his heart.

Although he did have such a hope, he didn’t expect that this reward would actually appear.

The Nirvana Fruit, it really got refreshed!

This thing is a world-shaking treasure, something that can only possibly appear at the sitting of a Nirvana Realm expert, even Life and Death Realm powerhouses would go mad for it, willing to fight life and death… Its value is terrifying to the extreme.

As an eighth-grade alchemist, Wang Ping naturally knows all kinds of wonders in the world.

The Nirvana Fruit, it’s rumored to allow one to undergo rebirth, bringing the dead back to life, and restoring bones and flesh.

Moreover, it can greatly enhance one’s bone quality and martial foundations, and even grant some Nirvana Force, making one’s recovery abilities terrifying.

If he could consume the Nirvana Fruit before condensing the Profound Elixir, Wang Ping felt the probability of condensing a second-grade Profound Elixir would be really high.

Plus, the recovery ability brought by the Nirvana Fruit would definitely be far stronger than the Green Talent: Super-Speed Regeneration.

His luck this time was simply off the charts.

“System, I choose ②!”

Wang Ping was elated, and quickly made his choice.

In an instant, Wang Ping felt a golden, peculiar fruit appear in his Storage Ring.

However, the Life Simulator was quite thoughtful this time, also providing a jade box to contain it, preventing the loss of its medicinal properties.

Looking at this Nirvana Fruit, Wang Ping couldn’t calm down.

However, Wang Ping knew clearly that in this mission world, it was not the time to break through, and consuming it in reality would be too wasteful.

As long as he didn’t eat it, he could have this treasure available for every simulation, which is the most satisfying.

“Phew…”

Wang Ping opened his eyes with a wide smile.

“Brother Wang, what good thing happened to make you so happy?”

Qin Tian saw Wang Ping’s smile and curiously asked.

“Hehe, it’s just that I’ll soon break through to the Profound Elixir Realm, nothing much really…”

Wang Ping replied with a chuckle.

“Profound Elixir Realm…” Qin Tian twitched.

Damn, Brother Wang got me good.

“Profound Elixir Realm, must have a seven-star combat power evaluation, right?”

Ye Xiaofan exclaimed in surprise.

“Once I break through, I probably will. Even if not, it would be a near-seven-star deal.”

Wang Ping nodded.

A seven-star rating is an extinction-level evaluation. Wang Ping wasn’t sure if he would reach it after breaking through.

However, the hope was quite high.

“Makes one envious…” Qin Tian muttered.

As for Chen Si and Zhao Sihan, they didn’t know much about the realms in Wang Ping’s world, they just looked over curiously.

Lin Qiuqiu was even more clueless… Whatever the Profound Elixir Realm or seven-star were, she had no idea.

“How’s your investigation going?”
Wang Ping inquired.

“What are we checking for… We don’t have a super hacker in our group,” Qin Tian mumbled, “I’d rather search for souls online than this.”

“Um, if you guys want any information, you can ask me. My brother is a talented ability user; he knows many things,” Lin Qiuqiu cautiously said.

“Never mind, it’s unnecessary,”

Wang Ping shook his head.

This world, after all, is different from the one Wang Shuqing is in. They’re not dealing with hidden anomalies but enemies that only know destruction and don’t require much understanding.

Knowing when the opponent appears…

Killing them, completing the mission, leaving, it’s that straightforward and direct.

“System, I want to do a free simulation,”

After thinking for a moment, Wang Ping spoke in his mind.

“Ding, life simulation begins.”

The system’s voice rang.

Immediately, the familiar screen appeared in front of Wang Ping, and text began to emerge.

【On the first day, you all waited quietly. On the second day, a spatial rift appeared in the sky above your city, and a gigantic canine monster emerged from it.】

【Its appearance shocked everyone in the metropolis and alerted the entire world. Everyone who saw it with the naked eye started to twist and deform, growing scales and turning into similar monsters.】

【Even Lin Qiuqiu, Chen Si, and Zhao Sihan mutated upon seeing it and became monsters. You had no choice but to kill them.】

【As for Qin Tian, he managed to hold out due to his cultivation, not turning into a monster immediately but also showing signs of mutation. Ye Xiaofan, however, was the most normal, his holy body having resistance to curses, so he was unharmed.】

【You, with your stronger cultivation, did not show any anomalies. But you knew that continuing to stare would cause problems. You yelled at Qin Tian to stop looking.】

【Qin Tian was startled and quickly closed his eyes, not daring to look further.】

【Next, you had Qin Tian teleport Ye Xiaofan out of there. You then soared into the sky to fight the monster from the Abyssal Lands. The battle was fierce, devastating the city below in the aftermath.】

【The monster from the Abyssal Lands was terrifyingly powerful. Even using all your methods, it was hard to kill it. Gradually, you fell into a disadvantage. In the end, you used a method that involved a great cost to yourself to grievously wound it, and then using the Rebirth Talisman to revive once, you fought desperately again to finally kill it.】

【After killing it, you were also cursed and began to mutate due to lack of power. Furious and regretful for not having a Tier-Eight Breakcurse Pill prepared in advance.】

【Because of this, you chose to return to your original world quickly to consume the Nirvana Fruit. Though it was a huge waste and pained you deeply, it was the only option.】

【With your return, this simulation ended.】

“Uh… Completing a mission in just one attempt, this is a first…”

Wang Ping’s feelings were quite complex.

But he quickly relaxed.

After all, although the monsters from the Abyssal Lands were terrifying and powerful, they ultimately couldn’t compare to anomalies.

One very nauseating aspect of anomalies is their concealment; it’s necessary to find out who or what the anomaly is.

While dealing with these monsters, as long as one’s strength is enough, they can be easily dispatched.

“Brother Wang, how did it go?”

Qin Tian eagerly asked when he saw Wang Ping open his eyes again.

“I understand the monster’s abilities and how to deal with it, and I have the strength to kill it.”

Wang Ping looked at Qin Tian and the others as he spoke.

“Of course, in this simulation, Chen Si and the others died due to the monster’s abilities, so I struggled a lot. A method needs to be found to clear it without injuries.”

Pausing, Wang Ping spoke again.

“I see.”

Upon hearing this, Qin Tian breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

Since it can be cleared, that’s a good thing.

As for deaths and injuries, he believed Wang Ping could resolve these issues.

“Died…” Chen Si’s face turned slightly pale.

Even with such a strong leader, they still died… This mission is too dangerous.

“Don’t worry, girl. As long as Brother Wang’s abilities have more uses left, we have plenty of chances to trial and error,”

Qin Tian cheerfully consoled.
“Is that so…” Chen Si and the other girls breathed a sigh of relief.

“I’ll simulate one more time.”

Wang Ping nodded and used the Free Simulation again.

【Day One, you took action and tried to get the city’s people to evacuate early.】

【Day Two, you waited for the monster to appear. You prepared in advance and used a grand formation to isolate its aura and achieve your objectives. Then, Chen Si used her ability to put the monster into a Weakness state. Qin Tian then teleported Chen Si and the others away from the scene.】

【You battled the monster. Because the monster’s combat power had been forcibly weakened by Chen Si, you easily killed it without wasting the rebirth ability of the Rebirth Talisman.】

【You completed the task effortlessly and left this world cheerfully.】

【Due to your departure, this simulation has ended.】

“As long as we know the opponent’s abilities, there are ways to deal with it…”

Wang Ping looked at the simulated content and couldn’t help but smile.

Seeing Wang Ping smile, Qin Tian and the others also smiled, realizing that this group task was basically secured.

“Great, no casualties, a perfect clear.”

Wang Ping glanced at everyone and chuckled.

“Hehe, as expected of Brother Wang, truly unbeatable.” Qin Tian grinned and gave a thumbs up.

“Stop flattering me. We should get to work.”

Wang Ping rolled his eyes and recounted the simulation content. Then he said,

Upon hearing Wang Ping’s words, Lin Qiuqiu was stunned, with a chill running up from her feet through her spine to the top of her head.

This… this is too dangerous…

When this monster appeared, it easily destroyed a city and turned everyone into monsters.

If it weren’t for Wang Ping and the others, wouldn’t she have turned into a disgusting monster and died completely?

Just thinking about it gave Lin Qiuqiu goosebumps, grateful for the appearance of Wang Ping and the others.

Zhao Sihan was also stunned.

Goodness, with Brother Wang around, even if they die once… it’s too dangerous.

“Brother Wang, what do you plan to do?” Ye Xiaofan asked meaningfully.

“What else can we do… Use formidable power to convince the world of my words and get the Profound Nation officials to cooperate with our actions.”

Wang Ping glanced at Ye Xiaofan and said calmly.

He believed that in the simulation, he would have solved the problem in such a simple and direct way.

After all, he didn’t have much time to waste.

And the monster wouldn’t give them too much time either.

“I also think this is the best way.” Ye Xiaofan nodded.

“In that case, let’s take action. I’ll be back soon.”

Wang Ping nodded and said.

With that said, Wang Ping flew out directly.

Profound Nation, Spiritual Power Bureau.

The director of the Spiritual Power Bureau looked out the window, somewhat worried.

Although they had long known about the resurgence of spiritual energy and had taken various measures in advance, what this world would become after the resurgence of spiritual energy, how many people would die, was still uncertain.

He wasn’t particularly optimistic about this.

After all, at this moment, there were more and more mutated animals in the wild. Although the military was currently suppressing them, when these animals further mutate, even thermal weapons might not be effective.

He wanted to quickly cultivate warriors and embrace the arrival of a new era.

But the current cultivation methods were not yet perfect, still theoretical. Although they could allow people to cultivate, the results were not significant.

Currently, humanity’s extraordinary combat power still relied on awakeners and abilities, but the number of awakeners was too few, entirely based on luck.

Therefore, combat power was lacking.

Humanity was racing against death.

“If humanity could have a perfect martial arts system and evolve faster than those creatures, it would usher in a brilliant new era instead of extinction.”

The director of the Spiritual Power Bureau sighed.
