Chapter 390 – The Mysteries of the Xenomorph Talent, Encountering Red Moon Clansmen!
by spirapira“The Xenomorph talent absolutely has to be brought out…”
Su Xing murmured. There was nothing to deliberate about on this point.
Su Xing still didn’t know whether the Xenomorph talent’s power could be preserved.
But if he wasted even one opportunity, that would be one fewer chance to explore and gather intelligence.
“As for the Spirit Domain… and the choice of body tempering cultivation?”
Su Xing pondered for a while. His current Spirit Domain still fell short of ten thousand zhang (33.3 km).
But even if he didn’t bring out the Spirit Domain this time, by the next simulation, it should be able to reach its current level anyway.
Body tempering cultivation, on the other hand, was different.
Great Shaman Body Forging Art, Fifth Layer Major Mastery — Su Xing had only barely achieved this with the help of Heart of the Strong.
Triggering Heart of the Strong was no easy feat. Su Xing had to seize the opportunity.
With that in mind, Su Xing quickly made his decision.
“I choose to bring out the Xenomorph talent, as well as the Great Shaman Body Forging Art, Fifth Layer Major Mastery cultivation!”
As his words fell, the simulator’s Chime sounded in Su Xing’s ears.
【Ding! You have successfully brought out the red mythical-grade talent “Xenomorph.” Cost: 100 origin energy points. Remaining origin energy: 9,810,192 points…】
【You have successfully brought out the Great Shaman Body Forging Art Major Mastery cultivation. Cost: 1,500,000 origin energy points. Remaining origin energy: 8,310,192 points…】
As the Chime faded, Su Xing felt his strength surge explosively once more!
Previously, Su Xing’s Great Shaman Body Forging Art had been roughly in the latter half of the Fifth Layer Minor Mastery — not far from Fifth Layer Major Mastery.
But after this simulation, Su Xing had broken through directly to Major Mastery. His physical strength had surged over threefold!
It wasn’t just physical strength that had surged — his recovery ability, vitality, and everything else had increased threefold across the board!
“Hoo… as I am now, I should be considered to possess Golden Immortal-level strength!”
Su Xing let out a long breath, his heart filled with a sense of security.
With Golden Immortal-level strength, across the vast Three Thousand Worlds, there was virtually nowhere he couldn’t go!
“And then there’s this new Xenomorph talent…”
Su Xing focused his mind and attempted to activate the Xenomorph talent.
Soon, a translucent panel appeared before him.
This was a dedicated Xenomorph talent panel!
【Flame Demon Tribe (700/10000)】: Activated. Possesses Weak Divine Power cultivation. Strength and cultivation have been saved. In the next simulation, you may spend 10,000 origin energy to load it.
【Shadow Tribe】: Not activated. Initial activation requires 100,000 origin energy.
【Lesser Demon Tribe】: Not activated. Initial activation requires no origin energy.
【Other Alien Races】: Not unlocked…
Su Xing realized that this red mythical-grade talent was indeed vastly different from gold talents!
The Xenomorph talent essentially granted Su Xing an additional identity.
With this identity, Su Xing could continue simulating in the future and gather even more intelligence.
Moreover, the Xenomorph identity’s strength could be preserved!
“The other two alien races are still in an unactivated state, and the remaining alien races haven’t been unlocked yet…”
“But what do the numbers after Flame Demon Tribe mean… what does 700/10000 signify?”
Su Xing pondered for a moment.
“Seven hundred… I started in year nine hundred and ended at year one thousand six hundred. The Flame Demon’s survival time appears to be exactly seven hundred years!”
“And the ten thousand after the seven hundred seems to be the lifespan of a Weak Divine Power alien?”
Su Xing had an epiphany.
So that was it — after each simulation, the Xenomorph identity wouldn’t be reset. He only needed to pay a certain amount of origin energy.
In the next simulation, Su Xing wouldn’t need to start over from scratch.
This way, Su Xing would be stronger and could investigate key intelligence among the alien races even faster.
However, the alien forms had lifespans too.
Take the flame demon Su Xing had transformed into, for example.
A Weak Divine Power flame demon had a lifespan of ten thousand years. If it couldn’t break through to Medium Divine Power level within ten thousand years, this Xenomorph form could no longer continue.
“However, even though the Flame Demon Race has limited talent, breaking through to True God shouldn’t be difficult…”
Su Xing nodded slightly. This saved him a great deal of effort.
“Fifteen hundred years from now, the Southern Barbarian Domain will be completely invaded… with my current abilities, can I avert this crisis?”
Su Xing deliberated for a long time before reaching his conclusion.
Completely impossible to resolve!
After all, this was still far too distant for Su Xing — a full fifteen hundred years away!
Furthermore, Su Xing’s cultivation realm was far too low… even if he spoke up, claiming that one of the human race’s five domains was about to be destroyed, no one would believe him!
Finally, Su Xing had absolutely no idea how the alien races would invade the Southern Barbarian Domain, let alone how to stop them.
“Hoo… I still have one last simulation opportunity remaining. Might as well just use it!”
“The Xenomorph talent can apparently only be used once per simulation. But what about in the Real World?”
“Would I be stuck in Xenomorph form, unable to change back?”
Su Xing murmured.
To his surprise, the simulator responded at that moment.
【Ding! Because Xenomorph is a red mythical talent of extremely high grade… the host may freely switch between Xenomorph and human forms in reality. However, a certain amount of origin energy must be paid to bring out the alien race’s strength from the simulation…】
After receiving the simulator’s response, Su Xing fell into deep thought.
“I can transform into an alien race in reality too? And without restrictions… I can even bring out the Xenomorph’s cultivation from the simulation!”
Su Xing’s eyes lit up. It seemed this talent was tremendously useful!
“Not bad. If the opportunity arises in the future, I might be able to put it to use in reality as well…”
“But for now, let me use up that last simulation opportunity!”
Su Xing focused his mind and silently chanted:
“Begin simulation!”
【140th simulation initiated. Current remaining origin energy: 8,310,192 points… Remaining simulation attempts: 0.】
【Simulation begins!】
【Drawing a gold legendary talent costs 1 origin energy point. Draw?】
“Yes!”
【Ding! Congratulations, you have obtained the gold talent Frost Origin Divine Physique, and Xenomorph… Next gold talent draw probability: 80%…】
【Frost Origin Divine Physique】: Gold talent. One of the Hundred Great Divine Physiques. A mutated variant of a water-element divine physique. Possesses extremely strong affinity with water elements and can command ice-based supernatural arts…
“Hmm? Drew another one of the Hundred Great Divine Physiques…”
Su Xing glanced at it. This talent wasn’t of much use to him personally.
But if gifted to someone else, it would be quite good.
“The primary objective of this simulation remains cultivation improvement!”
“Starting from a higher point as a flame demon, I should be able to obtain even more intelligence…”
With that in mind, Su Xing turned his gaze to the simulation panel.
【Ding! Please select the target talent for the Plus One talent to enhance…】
“I choose the Late Bloomer talent…”
【In the spirit field grotto-heaven, you realize you are in a simulation.】
【You make a trip to the Celestial Secrets Pavilion…】
【Afterward, you travel to Earth and begin preparations for the human race migration.】
【Year 2: You find a plot of land near White Emperor City for the humans of Earth and establish the nation of Great Xia…】
【Year 5: The Celestial Secrets Pavilion dispatches Supreme Unity Golden Immortals to Earth…】
【Year 10: Two Supreme Unity Golden Immortals return gravely wounded. The alien races have accelerated their invasion of Earth…】
【Over the next thirty-plus years, you collect the legacies the Luotian Sect had scattered across various worlds in the Azure Origin Domain…】
【Year 40: You travel to the Lesser Azure Cloud Realm.】
【The Lesser Azure Cloud Realm has already been invaded en masse by alien races. True Immortal and Mystic Immortal-level aliens have begun appearing on the battlefield…】
【You slay enemies on the front lines, fighting valiantly, and obtain large quantities of blood essence…】
【After forty years of fighting on the front lines, you stabilize the situation in the Lesser Azure Cloud Realm and continually strengthen the Heavenly Abyss Army.】
【Year 80: You travel to the Nine Heavens Domain and begin comprehending the Great Dao…】
In the Real World, Su Xing saw this and silently chanted:
“Use immersive simulation, duration: seventy years!”
【Ding! You have spent 25,550 origin energy points. Remaining origin energy: 8,310,192 points…】
As the Chime faded, Su Xing’s consciousness entered the simulated world.
…
Nine Heavens Domain, a Secret Realm somewhere in the Fifth Heaven.
Su Xing took out his Dao-Enlightenment Tea leaves along with multiple Dao essence treasures containing various Great Dao comprehensions, and mulled things over.
“The Great Dao of Speed has already successfully entered the fifth realm… So what Great Dao should I comprehend next?”
Su Xing considered for a moment. The Great Daos he urgently needed to improve were the Great Dao of the Sword, the Five Elements Dao, spatial Dao, and the Great Dao of Cause and Effect and Destiny…
Each of these Great Daos would benefit Su Xing enormously, and all had entered the fourth realm…
“The Great Dao of the Sword — if I could receive the White Emperor’s guidance, my progress would be faster than imagined!”
“And the Five Elements Dao could help the Xenomorph flame demon gain even greater talent…”
Su Xing ultimately decided to comprehend the Five Elements Dao first!
After all, he possessed the Five Elements Holy Physique. Cultivating the Five Elements Dao would be exceptionally fast!
Moreover, the Five Elements Dao included the Great Dao of Fire.
If Su Xing’s Great Dao of Fire entered the fifth realm, it would greatly benefit his flame demon form’s strength as well!
With that decided, Su Xing took out the innate Fusang tree branch and various other Dao essence treasures, and began comprehending the Five Elements Dao!
…
In the blink of an eye, fifty-four years passed.
Over those fifty-four years, Su Xing consumed three cups of Dao-Enlightenment Tea and used one Inevitable Epiphany opportunity.
His speed of comprehending the Five Elements Dao was faster than expected!
“Hoo… The Five Elements Dao is considered a top-tier Great Dao. Its difficulty is far beyond what the Great Dao of Speed can compare to…”
“But I never expected the Five Elements Holy Physique to be this helpful for comprehending the Five Elements Dao.”
“If an ordinary cultivator wanted to comprehend the Five Elements Dao to the fifth realm, it would take at least two hundred thousand years…”
“But with the help of Dao-Enlightenment Tea, I only need about four immersive simulations to fully enter the fifth realm!”
“That efficiency is even faster than comprehending the Great Dao of Speed!”
Su Xing nodded in satisfaction.
His Five Elements Dao had now entered the fourth realm Minor Mastery…
By that calculation, he would need roughly three more immersive simulations before the Five Elements Dao could fully enter the fifth realm!
“There are still sixteen years until this immersive simulation ends… I might as well continue exploring the Fifth Heaven and gather more treasures!”
Su Xing decided not to go to the Sixth Heaven. There weren’t any treasure-filled secret realms there.
Perhaps when Su Xing’s strength was sufficient to enter the seventh heaven, he could go take a look…
With that in mind, Su Xing spent the next sixteen years exploring the Fifth Heaven.
…
The immersive simulation ended, and Su Xing returned to the Real World.
After digesting his memories, Su Xing let out a long breath.
“Improving Great Dao comprehension gets progressively harder the further along you go… It seems I’ll truly need to spend simulation attempts dedicated solely to Great Dao comprehension from now on!”
Su Xing’s gaze returned to the simulation panel.
【Year 150: You collect numerous useful resources and treasures in the Fifth Heaven.】
【This year, you begin preparations to leave the Azure Origin Domain and travel to the Heavenly Secrets Domain…】
【Year 160: You successfully arrive at the South Sea Realm…】
【Year 170: You cross the Endless Sea and successfully arrive at the White Cloud Sect.】
【Over the next hundred-plus years, you cultivate quietly at the White Cloud Sect.】
【In the blink of an eye, year 300 arrives!】
【This year, your Qi Refinement cultivation has reached the Mystic Immortal Third Layer Peak.】
【At the same time, your Body Tempering cultivation has also improved slightly.】
【Your Spirit Domain range is just one step away from ten thousand zhang (33.3 km)…】
【As you wait, Xiao Zhanlong pilots the Celestial Vessel and arrives at the White Cloud Realm.】
【You board the Celestial Vessel, bringing the Bai siblings along, and set off together for the Celestial Secrets Realm…】
【Year 320: An alien army ambushes you, launching an assault on the Celestial Vessel…】
Seeing this, Su Xing felt a surge of tension.
“With my current strength, that second-rank Divine Sovereign probably can’t put me in enough danger to trigger Heart of the Strong anymore…”
“Sigh, if I want to continue triggering Heart of the Strong, I’ll need to find other suitable targets…”
Su Xing pondered. His current overall strength was roughly at the early Golden Immortal level.
If he used every means at his disposal, Su Xing could perhaps barely manage to kill an early Golden Immortal-level alien…
At the same time, against a mid-stage Golden Immortal powerhouse, Su Xing had reasonable confidence he could at least preserve his own life…
“So the most suitable catalyst for triggering Heart of the Strong would need to be around mid to late Golden Immortal strength…”
“If they exceed late Golden Immortal, I’d probably be killed instantly — no chance to trigger Heart of the Strong at all!”
“And if they’re only at early Golden Immortal, they wouldn’t qualify to trigger Heart of the Strong…”
Su Xing shook his head slightly. These conditions were quite demanding!
Too strong wouldn’t work, and too weak wouldn’t work either…
“It seems I’ll need to find a suitable target during this simulation… If it really comes down to it, I can only wait for the great battle in year eight hundred to trigger Heart of the Strong!”
Su Xing shook his head slightly. Unless there was truly no other choice, he was unwilling to wait until year eight hundred.
After all, that would mean Su Xing couldn’t concentrate his efforts on improving a specific aspect of his cultivation, which would significantly impact his overall strength…
“Well, let’s see how much pressure this second-rank Divine Sovereign can give me!”
“If it truly doesn’t work out, I’ll just have to figure something out later…”
Su Xing turned his gaze to the simulation panel.
【The alien army launches its assault on the Celestial Vessel. A great battle is imminent…】
【Xiao Zhanlong quickly engaged the alien first-rank Divine Sovereign, while the White Emperor also made his move, facing off against the Great Firmament Golden Immortal Blood Two.】
【Thousands of aliens began launching their attack on the Celestial Vessel…】
【Under these circumstances, you made your move!】
【Alien True Gods and third-rank Divine Sovereigns were like clay chickens and pottery dogs in your hands, completely powerless to fight back. In this battle, you held nothing back.】
【This was a rare opportunity for you to acquire a massive amount of blood essence!】
【And so, after one day of intense battle, you were targeted by the alien second-rank Divine Sovereign!】
【A great battle was about to erupt!】
【Four thousand nine hundred strands of Protective Sword Aura were released without the slightest reservation, and your terrifying physical strength was enough to clash head-on with the alien second-rank Divine Sovereign!】
【This battle lasted an entire month!】
【You unleashed your “Void Swordsmanship” and dealt a devastating blow to the alien Divine Sovereign, but you yourself were also seriously injured…】
【In the end, the White Emperor made his move, defeating Blood Two, slaying the alien first-rank Divine Sovereign, and with a casual wave of his hand, killing your opponent as well…】
【You seized the opportunity to take the blood essence of this alien second-rank Divine Sovereign… The great battle finally concluded with a victory for the human race.】
【However, the only regret was that you did not trigger the Heart of the Strong talent…】
【Even so, after this battle, your name shook the Heavenly Secrets Domain, and you ascended to the forty-ninth position on the Prodigy List’s Earth Ranking!】
【The Celestial Vessel smoothly sailed toward the Celestial Secrets Realm, arriving at the Heavenly Secrets Domain in the three hundred and thirtieth year.】
In the Real World, Su Xing frowned slightly upon seeing this.
“Sigh, as expected, the Heart of the Strong talent still didn’t trigger…”
“From here on, I must find a way to seek out stronger enemies!”
Su Xing mulled it over. Although there were quite a few aliens with strength at the second-rank Divine Sovereign level or above, they were not easy to encounter.
Therefore, he would have to rely on the Celestial Secrets Pavilion’s intelligence to select appropriate opponents when carrying out missions.
“Let’s see if I can find aliens of the right strength level…”
Su Xing felt somewhat anxious. If he couldn’t find one, then his cultivation in this simulation would fall far behind.
His gaze turned to the simulation panel.
【In the three hundred and thirtieth year, you became an outer pavilion Elder of the Celestial Secrets Pavilion, with a status comparable to a terrestrial-rank Golden Immortal Elder.】
【After becoming a terrestrial Elder, you gained higher intelligence clearance, and you began searching for information on alien second-rank Divine Sovereigns.】
【Over the next fifty years, you cultivated, hunted aliens, and investigated intelligence simultaneously.】
【But unfortunately, alien Divine Sovereigns of suitable strength were simply too few.】
【Either they were too strong for you to survive against, or they were too weak to help you trigger the Heart of the Strong…】
【Until the three hundred and ninetieth year, when things finally took a turn!】
【That year, after countless investigations, you finally locked onto an alien of suitable strength.】
【This was an alien at the mid-stage of the second-rank Divine Sovereign level, comparable to a mid-stage Golden Immortal among humans…】
【For you, this was the most suitable level of strength!】
【The intelligence you received indicated that this alien was leading an army to invade a Medium Chiliocosm.】
【The Celestial Secrets Pavilion urgently needed to recruit two Elders at mid-stage Golden Immortal or above to go together…】
【One mid-stage Golden Immortal Elder had already been recruited, but they were still one short.】
【Although your strength was insufficient, you still intended to accept this mission.】
【Initially, the Celestial Secrets Pavilion did not approve, but after waiting several months without any new Golden Immortal accepting the mission, you had no choice but to forcefully fill the position…】
【Three months later, you and that mid-stage Golden Immortal Elder set out together for the Medium Chiliocosm.】
【For this mission, he would take the lead while you assisted from the side…】
【In the three hundred and ninety-fifth year, after arriving at that world, you witnessed a true human tragedy.】
【The entire Medium Chiliocosm had become a living hell!】
【Tens of billions of living beings had been slaughtered—half of them wiped out in just a few short years!】
【You and the Golden Immortal Elder led a squad of a thousand, every member possessing strength above the Immortal realm.】
【You quickly made contact with the local cultivators of that world and began launching a counterattack.】
【At the start of the counterattack, things went very smoothly for the human side.】
【In just a few years, you had slain nearly a thousand alien gods, obtaining countless blood essences.】
【You placed all the blood essence you had harvested into a dedicated storage bag, saving it for future use.】
【Time quickly arrived at the three hundred and ninety-eighth year…】
【That year, you finally encountered the second-rank alien Divine Sovereign…】
【The Golden Immortal Elder leading the squad wasted no words, quickly engaging the alien in battle to test its true capabilities.】
【Only you, looking at that humanoid alien with those red pupils, felt a sudden shock in your heart.】
【Instinct told you that this second-rank Divine Sovereign was not so simple!】
【After seeing it, the spot between your brows throbbed with pain ceaselessly—this meant that this alien Divine Sovereign was an existence that could truly kill you!】
【Sure enough, the moment he engaged this alien second-rank Divine Sovereign, the Golden Immortal Elder leading the squad fell to a disadvantage.】
【Seeing the Golden Immortal Elder under immense pressure, you dared not hold back and joined the battlefield as well.】
【Thus, one mid-stage Golden Immortal Elder plus you were barely able to fight this alien Divine Sovereign to a draw…】
【During the battle, you kept staring at the scarlet-red pupils of the alien Divine Sovereign, feeling a persistent sense of familiarity.】
【Those scarlet-red pupils somewhat resembled the red-eyed aliens, yet were completely different!】
【Compared to ordinary aliens, red-eyed aliens of the same realm were slightly weaker.】
【But the alien Divine Sovereign before you clearly surpassed ordinary aliens in strength…】
【You quickly realized that this alien Divine Sovereign likely possessed an extremely high-level bloodline!】
【It was either one of the ten great Emperor Clans, or the legendary Saint Clan… It was definitely not a level of strength that the King Clan among the aliens could achieve…】
【You coordinated with the Golden Immortal Elder, fighting fiercely against this alien Divine Sovereign…】
【Even with two against one, the battle still devolved into a white-hot stalemate.】
【In the blink of an eye, a year passed…】
【This battle lasted an entire year!】
【Three Great Firmament Golden Immortal-level powerhouses clashing left the entire Medium Chiliocosm utterly unrecognizable…】
【During the battle, what you found most troublesome was this red-pupiled Divine Sovereign’s terrifying law of slaughter!】
【Those alien Divine Sovereigns you had previously slain were somehow miraculously resurrected…】
【And that law of slaughter caused this red-pupiled Divine Sovereign to grow stronger the longer the battle raged…】
In the Real World, Su Xing’s pupils contracted sharply upon seeing this.
“Law of slaughter… the red-pupiled Divine Sovereign!”
“Could this alien’s identity be related to the Red Moon?!”
Su Xing suddenly recalled that he had once seen Red Moon’s pair of scarlet-red pupils.
And based on the intelligence Su Xing had obtained from his previous simulation, the alien races were divided into different tribes.
Given Red Moon’s strength back then, it was undoubtedly one of the highest-level races among the aliens!
It was very possible that it was the patriarch of some Saint Clan or Emperor Clan…
And the red-pupiled alien encountered this time might be a member of Red Moon’s race.
“Finally… I’ve learned more clues about the Red Moon…”
Su Xing murmured.
Among the alien races, the power gap between different tribes was enormous!
Among second-rank Divine Sovereigns, those from the Saint Clan and Emperor Clan were like prodigies among Golden Immortals—their combat strength was formidable.
But ordinary second-rank Divine Sovereigns didn’t possess such power…
“Sigh, things have gotten tricky!”
“I wonder if I can even survive against this red-pupiled Divine Sovereign…”
Su Xing sighed and turned his gaze to the simulation panel.
【As the battle continued, you found it increasingly difficult to hold on. If not for the Golden Immortal Elder fighting alongside you, you would likely have already been slain by him…】
【Finally, after over a year of fierce battle, this red-pupiled alien seemed to have grown bored.】
【A ferocious grin spread across its face, and then a terrifying wave of power erupted…】
【In the next instant, the red-pupiled alien vanished, and in its place appeared twin scarlet-red moons in the sky!】
【No—those were not moons, but a pair of pupils!】
【Red pupils radiating an eerie aura…】
【In the next instant, you felt your life force rapidly draining… In mere breaths, you had lost ten thousand years of lifespan!】
【The other Golden Immortal Elder was faring no better… Both of you seemed to be temporarily frozen in place, completely unable to move.】
【But fortunately, before setting out on the mission, the Golden Immortal Elder had obtained a trump card… a fifteenth-tier Illusion-Breaking Talisman!】
【With the help of this talisman, the Golden Immortal Elder barely managed to break free.】
【Looking up at the red moon in the sky, the Elder knew he was no match. This mission had failed!】
【Before departing, the Golden Immortal Elder grabbed you and took you along…】
【Tearing through the void, you and the Golden Immortal Elder successfully escaped.】
【But at this point, your divine soul had suffered severe damage… Eventually, you fell into a coma!】
In the Real World, Su Xing drew in a sharp breath upon seeing this.
“The red-pupiled Divine Sovereign is actually this terrifyingly powerful?”
“With my strength, plus a mid-stage Golden Immortal Elder, we still couldn’t defeat it… This red-pupiled alien’s strength must be approaching late-stage Golden Immortal!”
After a pause, Su Xing added:
“But fortunately, I fell into a coma… which means I should have escaped successfully!”
“As long as the Heart of the Strong talent triggers this time… then this red-pupiled Divine Sovereign would be a perfect opponent for triggering the Heart of the Strong!”
Su Xing hoped that the Heart of the Strong talent would trigger successfully.
His gaze turned to the simulation panel.
【When you woke up again, you and the Golden Immortal Elder had already fled to a lesser chiliocosm.】
【Your divine soul was wounded, your lifespan diminished, and the Golden Immortal Elder was in no better shape.】
【The first thing you did upon waking was check your cultivation.】
【Sure enough, your strength had leapt from Mystic Immortal Third Layer Peak to Mystic Immortal Fourth Layer late-stage!】
【This triggering of the Heart of the Strong had saved you at least five hundred years of bitter cultivation!】
【After narrowly escaping this ordeal, you and the Golden Immortal Elder recuperated in this lesser chiliocosm.】
【Half a year later, you both escaped back to the Celestial Secrets Realm.】
【In the four hundred and first year, after returning to the Celestial Secrets Realm, you submitted a general report of the mission intelligence.】
【Because the enemy’s strength had been underestimated, you had missed the opportunity to save a Medium Chiliocosm… and worse, the over one thousand Immortal disciples under your command would never return.】
【This battle had undoubtedly resulted in devastating losses!】
【After this battle, you remained in the Celestial Secrets Realm to recover from your injuries, occasionally contemplating the Spirit Domain.】
【In the blink of an eye, a hundred years passed…】
【In the five hundredth year, after a century of recuperation, your divine soul injuries had long since healed.】
【And in this year, your Spirit Domain successfully expanded to a range of ten thousand zhang (33.3 km)!】
【Over the following decades, you continued to study the Spirit Domain, steadily increasing its strength…】
【In the five hundred and fiftieth year, your Spirit Domain’s range reached a thousand li (500 km)!】
【Your Spirit Domain began merging with reality, and the range of your Portable Grotto-Heaven also expanded to a thousand li (500 km)!】
【At this moment, your Spirit Domain had finally completely solidified!】
【Before reaching ten thousand zhang (33.3 km), the Spirit Domain had been an ethereal existence… but now, your spirit field grotto-heaven had become your Spirit Domain itself!】
“So this simulation is improving my Qi Refinement cultivation…”
Su Xing shook his head slightly, feeling it was somewhat unfortunate.
If he had continued improving his Body Tempering cultivation instead, it might not have been long before Su Xing could cultivate to the sixth layer of the Great Shaman Body Forging Art…
At that point, Su Xing would truly achieve an indestructible diamond body, with physical strength comparable to a Golden Immortal!
“Sigh, but successfully triggering the Heart of the Strong talent is already tremendously fortunate… I can’t ask for too much!”
“Since that’s the case, I’ll devote the remaining time in this simulation to advancing my Qi Refinement cultivation!”
Su Xing estimated that reaching mid-stage of the Mystic Immortal Fifth Layer shouldn’t be too difficult in this simulation…
“And the Spirit Domain has also reached a thousand li (500 km) range again…”
His gaze turned to the simulation panel.
【After your Spirit Domain successfully broke through, you began focusing on improving your Qi Refinement cultivation.】
【With the help of the Zhengyi Breath Absorption Art, your cultivation speed far exceeded that of ordinary Mystic Immortals.】
【In the blink of an eye, another sixty years passed…】
【In the six hundred and tenth year, you received orders to go out and execute a mission.】
【But ever since your encounter with the red-pupiled alien, the Blessed by Fortune talent had been sending warnings from time to time.】
【Therefore, you decided not to venture out on risky missions and instead continued cultivating within the Celestial Secrets Realm.】
【And so, nearly another century passed…】
【In the seven hundredth year, your cultivation successfully advanced to Mystic Immortal Fourth Layer Peak!】
【Over this past century, you had been using the excuse of unhealed injuries to remain in the Celestial Secrets Realm.】
【The Celestial Secrets Realm was safe enough, but being unable to hunt aliens did make life rather lacking in excitement.】
【After breaking through to Mystic Immortal Fourth Layer Peak, you began preparing for the breakthrough to Mystic Immortal Fifth Layer.】
【This breakthrough took a full sixty years!】
【Ultimately, with the help of the Spirit Vein Dragon, you successfully stepped into the Mystic Immortal Fifth Layer!】
【After entering the Mystic Immortal Fifth Layer, the mana within your body grew another thirty percent more dense…】
【In the seven hundred and sixtieth year, you began preparing the resources needed for your Xenomorph disguise in case of danger…】
【And so, several decades passed…】
【In the eight hundredth year, a great war between the Heavenly Secrets Domain and the alien races was on the verge of erupting!】
【This time, you could no longer avoid it and had to join the battle.】
【War is cruel. Countless cultivators and Immortals fell, the earth wept blood, and the mountains mourned…】
【But you were fortunate. Though at the start of the war you received “special attention” from several second-rank Divine Sovereigns—】
【After your strength had grown, you didn’t encounter too much danger and still managed to survive, slaying many aliens…】
【Until one day, you saw that familiar figure—the red-pupiled Divine Sovereign!】
【Without question, you had been targeted by him…】
【At this moment on the battlefield, no other Golden Immortals nearby could come to your aid. You could only rely on yourself!】
【And you were absolutely no match for him…】
【Without the slightest hesitation, you desperately deployed the spatial Dao, tore open a void passage, and fled into the void…】
