174 – An Unexpected Delight! Wang Ping Becomes an Immortal!

Soon, Wang Ping and the other two arrived in an unusual space.

In this space, Wang Ping saw the Emperor of Judgement sealed layer upon layer.

This place was isolated from the outside world. Even if the Emperor of Judgement was released here, the outside world wouldn’t be affected by the anomaly’s abilities.

After all, as long as the anomaly hasn’t fully developed, it’s still quite manageable once its abilities are known.

Various thoughts flashed through Wang Ping’s mind. He then set up another series of grand formations to stabilize the internal space of the Profound Turtle, ensuring that the surroundings wouldn’t be affected after the Profound Turtle lifted the seal.

“Senior, please release his seal.”

Wang Ping spoke up.

“Hmm.” The deep voice of the Profound Turtle sounded, and it began casting its spell.

Soon, the chains binding the Emperor of Judgement vanished rapidly.

Just as the chains disappeared, the Emperor of Judgement opened his scarlet eyes, revealing a sinister yet surprised expression.

“Hehe, Profound Turtle, I didn’t expect you would voluntarily release me? Are you trying to submit to me?”

The anomaly chuckled eerily.

“Submit?” The Profound Turtle sighed. “No, today is your death day, and the judgement should be freed.”

The anomaly was stunned and looked at Wang Ping and the others.

After being unsealed, he had just woken up and only sensed that Wang Ping was an emperor, so he didn’t take it seriously. Now it seemed that the Profound Turtle had something to rely on by releasing him.

Wang Ping shouldn’t be an ordinary emperor.

Thinking of this, the anomaly directly activated its ability and mobilized terrifying power to strike at Wang Ping and the other two.

“Apologies, Senior Judgement.”

Wang Ping dispersed the anomaly’s attack with a wave of his hand and then spoke.

Then, Wang Ping erupted with terrifying mana, displaying divine abilities even more formidable than the Profound Turtle’s, forcibly suppressing the Emperor of Judgement and sealing his powers, rendering him incapable of resistance.

“What kind of divine ability is this?”

The anomaly was shocked.

Even when the Profound Turtle sealed him, he could still use powerful strength to impact the seal, and no one could approach him.

However, under Wang Ping’s seal, he found that his power was completely suppressed, unable to even move.

“Lin Yuanyuan, go.”

Wang Ping ignored the anomaly’s struggles and spoke to Lin Yuanyuan.

“And, Cai Zi, remember to assist as needed.”

Then, Wang Ping looked at Cai Yonglong and spoke.

“Got it.” Lin Yuanyuan and Cai Yonglong both nodded.

Next, Lin Yuanyuan brutally tore his clothes and pounced on the Emperor of Judgement.

This left the Profound Turtle bewildered.

Damn it, what’s going on?
Weren’t they supposed to kill the Emperor of Judgement? What’s happening?

Even with its tens of thousands of years of experience and vast knowledge of bizarre events, the Profound Turtle was left speechless by the scene before it.

“Ahem, Yuanyuan’s as fierce as ever, huh.”

Wang Ping and Cai Yonglong were deeply impressed by this sight.

Of course, they both felt that Lin Yuanyuan had let himself go after the incident with the anomaly pope.

Soon, the Emperor of Judgement, possessed by the anomaly, screamed in agony as his body withered at a visible rate, quickly drained by Lin Yuanyuan.

The anomaly and the Emperor of Judgement were utterly dead, while Lin Yuanyuan’s aura surged to the quasi-god level, close to reaching the Void God Realm.

“Gulp.”

A loud gulp echoed as cold sweat appeared on the Profound Turtle’s massive head.

What kind of companions does this Emperor of Heaven Selection have?
This power is too terrifying.

He directly drained the Emperor of Judgement and absorbed all his cultivation.

Such a terrifying ability was unheard of. Even the Demon Sect’s wicked secret arts couldn’t compare; they weren’t worthy to hold Lin Yuanyuan’s shoes.

For a moment, the Profound Turtle even wondered if Wang Ping had similar methods.

If so, he couldn’t tell if Wang Ping was righteous or evil.

“A quasi-god… so envious.”

Cai Yonglong looked at the satisfied Lin Yuanyuan with extreme envy.

Damn it, after all this time, he’s only at the Great Perfection Profound Elixir Realm, and that was from his master’s empowerment.
“What are you envious of? If you want to get stronger quickly, discuss it with Yuanyuan and let her grant you a power infusion. Then, I’ll bring some more strong individuals for her in the future, forming a virtuous cycle.”

Wang Ping rolled his eyes.

“Uh…” Cai Yonglong was dumbfounded.

Good grief, can it really be done like this?
If that’s the case, with Brother Wang and Lin Yuanyuan’s abilities combined, they could carry the entire chat group effortlessly…

“Brother Wang, is that really possible?”

Cai Yonglong asked excitedly.

“Theoretically, it is feasible. The biggest downside of power infusion is that the cultivation isn’t self-earned, making the foundation and mana too shallow. Normally, a cultivator who undergoes a power infusion would soar to great heights instantly but might find it difficult to progress further. However, since we are transmigrators, with group points, we can use them to strengthen our foundation and mana, thereby somewhat offsetting this flaw. As long as we have enough group points, it won’t be a problem.”

Wang Ping stroked his chin, transmitting his thoughts to Cai Yonglong.

“And with your strength up, would it be hard to earn points? Impossible.”

“Damn!”

Cai Yonglong’s eyes widened, breathing rapidly, already fantasizing about the future.

“So, building a good relationship with Yuanyuan is essential, young man.”

Wang Ping patted Cai Yonglong’s shoulder, grinning.

To be honest, ever since Cai Yonglong received the power infusion, Wang Ping had been envisioning a future plan for the chat group.

However, human nature is complicated; he hadn’t particularly trusted the other group members before.

But as his ‘Golden Finger’ ability optimized again, his strength grew significantly faster than the other members. Coupled with increasingly formidable enemies and the decent performance of all group members except Xu Yi, he decided to implement this plan.

Truth be told, leading the chat group members was easy with reasonable planning of their ‘Golden Fingers’.

Before, he wasn’t keen on doing this as it didn’t benefit him much. Moreover, if his strength wasn’t far superior, the group members might not listen to him as much.

Now, having gained enough prestige and confident that his strength would always surpass other members, he had survived many dangerous group missions. With no reason for them to oppose him, he felt secure in implementing his plan to cultivate other members.

“Indeed, I need to build a good relationship with her. But not too close, otherwise… I’m afraid…”

Cai Yonglong coughed.

Hearing this, Wang Ping rolled his eyes again.

You fear falling for Lin Yuanyuan, and then sparks might fly… She may not even fancy you.

“Brother Wang, should I head back right away?”

Lin Yuanyuan withdrew her power and transmitted to Wang Ping.

“No hurry… Since you can stay in this world for a while, do more tasks. The more capable, the more labor.”

Wang Ping smiled at Lin Yuanyuan.

“Okay.” Lin Yuanyuan nodded, not questioning Wang Ping’s requests.

“Senior, I would like to ask you something… Do you know which forces are enemies of the Judgement Holy Land?”

Wang Ping turned to Profound Turtle and asked.

“Do you intend to avenge Judgement?”

Profound Turtle asked, surprised.

“I have some connections with the descendants of the Emperor of Judgement, and my companions have also gained his power, which can be considered as his legacy. So, helping him with vengeance is the right thing to do, isn’t it?”

Wang Ping smiled as he spoke.

He genuinely wasn’t that kind-hearted; avenging the Emperor of Judgement was just a side task.

The most important goal was to clear out some powerful forces under the guise of righteousness, and earn more resources.

Without eliminating some Holy Lands and Great Teachings, where would he get so many King Weapons and Emperor Weapons?

Without King Weapons and Emperor Weapons, how could he conduct Paid Simulations?

“Black Bird Holy Land, Gale Holy Land, Heavenly Lion Clan, Demon Ape Sect…”

Profound Turtle, deeply admiring Wang Ping’s character and ashamed of previously suspecting him and his companions of being on the wrong path, couldn’t help but list a bunch of force names.

“By the way, these are some things left by Judgement… You can have them. Although they may not be of much use to you now, they are good for nurturing future generations.”

After listing the forces, Profound Turtle took out a pile of items.

They were clearly the legacy of the Emperor of Judgement.

A quasi-immortal weapon, three ordinary Emperor Weapons, three damaged Emperor Weapons, dozens of King Weapons, and some other Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

“A legacy…”

Wang Ping’s eyes gleamed, and a smile appeared.

The Emperor of Judgement’s legacy… This was truly an unexpected windfall.

Among them, the quasi-immortal weapon should be the Emperor of Judgement’s Life-bound Weapon.

As for the other Emperor Weapons, the ordinary ones should have belonged to the Purple Spirit Realm emperors that the Emperor of Judgement had slain.
The rest of the Emperor Weapons mostly belonged to the emperors of the Blood Demon Realm; they should be spoils from the great war ten thousand years ago.

“Since it is a gift from you, senior, I shall gladly accept it.”

Wang Ping smiled slightly and said to the Profound Turtle.

Then, he wrapped up these items and stored them in the space he had created within himself.

With so many things, he could simulate three more times.

When Lin Yuanyuan eliminates these forces, he might get another two or three simulation opportunities.

Now, it felt a bit more plentiful.

If possible, he hoped to reach the Void God Realm with these simulation opportunities and then head to the Upper Realm.

Otherwise, he would have to continue causing a stir in the Purple Spirit Realm.

Next, after Wang Ping and his group bid farewell to the Profound Turtle, they left the internal space of the Profound Turtle and came to the outside world.

“The Azure Flame Supreme Emperor must have hidden his strength, right? With the power he showed earlier, killing the Nine Nether Demon Emperor should have only taken one move… Why go through so much trouble?”

After Wang Ping tore through space and left, the Profound Turtle began to ponder.

However, he was still a bit skeptical.

Is that really the case?

“A mysterious human.”

After giving his evaluation, the Profound Turtle didn’t bother to think more and began to sleep.

This time, without needing to suppress the Emperor of Judgement, it was an unprecedentedly leisurely and carefree time.

The next day, Lin Yuanyuan began her hunting operation, while Wang Ping took Cai Yonglong back to Blue Flame Valley.

“Alpha, I have already resolved the anomaly, won’t you give me any group points as a reward?”

Wang Ping frowned and said in his heart.

“Ding, you killed the anomaly and earned fifty million group points.”

After Wang Ping spoke, the voice of the chat group system finally rang out.

“Fifty million? That’s even more than I expected… I thought you’d still be stingy and just give me twenty million to brush me off.”

Wang Ping’s eyes flickered slightly as he listened to the voice in his mind.

“However, fifty million is still a bit short considering the true value of that anomaly. After all, it had quasi-immortal combat power and caused chaos in the Purple Spirit Realm.”

Wang Ping continued speaking in his mind.

“It was sealed as soon as it appeared. Its quasi-immortal strength was not its own power, and the mess it caused was very small.”

Alpha’s voice rang out.

“Tch.”

Wang Ping clicked his tongue, lazily arguing with Alpha.

“System, consume thirty-five King Weapons, I want to perform a paid simulation.”

After some thought, Wang Ping spoke in his mind.

“Ding, consumption successful. Life Simulator activated. Refreshing talent…”

The system’s voice rang out.

“Ding, talent refresh successful. Congratulations to the host for successfully refreshing a blue talent: Dance and Song.”

Blue talent: Dance and Song: With this talent, the host’s combat power will slightly increase after singing and dancing.

“I thought the Life Simulator would ensure a red talent after optimization, but it seems I was thinking too much.”

Wang Ping shook his head slightly after seeing this refreshed talent.

This blue talent, which slightly increases combat power after singing and dancing, was practically useless.

However, it matched his current situation.

After all, blue talents were useful for life-and-death ciclosis or had significant uses previously; at his current level, these boosting blue talents were basically useless.

One could even say that red talents were showing signs of not keeping up.

For instance, the red talent Unstable Optimizer, which he once held in high regard, rarely activated now, and even when it did, it often failed.

That’s because the higher the level of the item it comes into contact with, the lower the activation probability and the higher the failure rate.

Another example is the stacking of foundation roots from his two red talents, True Dragon Form and Sword Profound Body. In the Emperor Realm and prior levels, they were still effective, but heading to the Upper Realm and reaching the Void God Realm, they might be reduced to ordinary talents.

Now, Wang Ping could only hope to refresh a purple talent that increases foundation roots or physique to keep up with the pace.

Otherwise, future cultivation would be difficult.

“Ding, talent selection successful. Life simulation begins…”

While Wang Ping was pondering, the system’s voice rang out, and his consciousness wavered, entering an immersive simulation state.
“System, fast forward for me.”

Wang Ping said decisively in his heart.

“Ding, fast forwarding.”

The system’s voice echoed once again, and the familiar text appeared on the screen.

【Day 1: You chose to cultivate, while Lin Yuanyuan also took action, targeting some Holy Lands, Demon Sects, and major sects. She was ruthless, killing all the higher-ups above the king level in the Holy Lands, seizing all treasures, and disbanding the innocent disciples. As for those Demon Sects and evil sects, she entrusted the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion to locate and eliminate them completely.】

【Lin Yuanyuan’s sudden emergence caused a huge stir, shocking all the Holy Lands and making them extremely wary. However, the power she displayed was very similar to that of the Emperor of Judgement, which intrigued them even more…】

【Soon, more news spread. It was said that the Emperor of Judgement had briefly awakened and passed all his power to Lin Yuanyuan, allowing her to enact justice and exact revenge for the Holy Land of Judgement, settling all old scores.】

【For a time, all the guilty forces in the Purple Spirit Realm were panic-stricken, while other Holy Lands sighed in relief, as the ticking time bomb that was the Emperor of Judgement was no more. Additionally, since Lin Yuanyuan was deemed the heir chosen jointly by the Emperor of Judgement and the Profound Turtle, they assumed she wouldn’t harm innocent forces, thus turning a blind eye.】

【Of course, all the Holy Lands knew that ignoring Lin Yuanyuan, who had reached the quasi-immortal level, wouldn’t work even if they tried. Meanwhile, the followers and descendants of the Emperor of Judgement were thrilled, eagerly awaiting the resurrection of the Holy Land of Judgement.】

【However, after Lin Yuanyuan settled the scores, she vanished entirely, showing no intent to rebuild the Holy Land of Judgement, leaving many bewildered.】

“As expected, if I let group members enter my world and simulate, there would be no time limit for their stay.”

Wang Ping pondered as he looked at the simulation content.

Thinking this way, future simulations could reasonably incorporate many chat group elements.

If he couldn’t find a solution, he could consider spending group points to send a specific group member over as a tool.

【In an instant, more than a millennium passed, with major events unfolding as you remembered. Throughout these years, you diligently cultivated, never slackening. Thus, after over a millennium, you finally comprehended three-tenths of the pseudo-laws of fire and three-tenths of the pseudo-laws of the sword.】

【Notably, Lin Yuanyuan didn’t waste powerful individuals. She captured them alive, drained their strength, and infused it into Cai Yonglong, allowing him to grow rapidly. However, his foundation and other aspects were a mess, making him empty of true strength.】

【Cai Yonglong didn’t mind this; he was quite pleased. You didn’t say much to him either.】

【Subsequently, the Blood Demons invaded. You crushed them, Ji Bingyan ascended, and the Mo Family Young Master descended with his servant to find the Primordial Holy Land. This time, you faced him again.】

【This time, without the intent to test your strength, you immediately used the power of the purple talent: Destiny Connection, forcibly binding yourself to the Mo Family Young Master, leaving him aggrieved.】

【Subsequently, you performed a bizarre maneuver, making the Mo Family servant mate with Lin Yuanyuan. The Mo Family Young Master was furious and baffled by your actions but didn’t want to die. He could only let his servant mate with Lin Yuanyuan.】

【Ultimately, under the astonished gaze of the Mo Family Young Master, Lin Yuanyuan drained his servant entirely, reaching the eighth level of the Void God Realm. If not for suppressing her cultivation quickly, she would have faced rejection from this world. As for his old servant, he perished entirely.】

【This made Cai Yonglong envious of Lin Yuanyuan’s swift strength gain, becoming even stronger than Brother Wang. You couldn’t help but cover your forehead, as this one-step-to-heaven Golden Finger was much stronger than the various talents you accumulated in simulations.】

【As for the Mo Family Young Master, feeling chilled, he thought you all were too anomalous. Clearly humans, not some special race, yet possessing such terrifying abilities.】

【Next, you paid no attention to the Mo Family Young Master’s thoughts. You directly sealed yourself, leaving him with no means to react. Then, you demanded he hand over his belongings or perish together.】

【Aggrieved, the Mo Family Young Master reluctantly complied, handing over all his valuable items. You were all stunned.】

【Because this Mo Family Young Master was incredibly wealthy. Lower-grade divine sources, extremely rare in the Purple Spirit Realm with only a few ounces remaining, were counted by the pound on him, totaling around a hundred pounds. Apart from that, he also possessed various lower, middle, and upper-grade divine weapons, forbidden items, holy items, and numerous Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures from the Upper Realm.】

“This Mo Family Young Master is one fat sheep…”

Wang Ping instinctively swallowed while reading the simulation’s description.

He had no choice; he was truly broke. Even the resources for paid simulations had to be obtained through robbery.

Currently, he lacked resources to break through to the Void God Realm.

Yet, the Mo Family Young Master carried lower-grade divine sources by the pound, about a hundred pounds.

As for the other valuable items, they were even more abundant. This was beyond being wealthy; it was like an oil well.

“Damn it, I really want to rob him. Unfortunately, this is a thousand years ago, and I can’t rob now… I can only enjoy it in the simulation.”

Wang Ping cursed, thinking of this.

“Forget it, enjoying it in the simulation is good too. With so many resources, I should be able to break through to the Void God Realm without resorting to underhanded means.”

He quickly took a deep breath, calming himself, and continued to stare at the screen.

【However, as you were fervently eyeing the resources, the Sacred Weapon on the Mo Family Young Master awakened. As a Sacred Weapon, it naturally had a spirit, and a highly intelligent one at that.】

【Thus, at the moment the spirit awakened, Lin Yuanyuan and Cai Yonglong were instantly killed without having time to react defensively. Cai Yonglong didn’t even have time to use his abilities to defend.】

【As for you, you were suppressed by the Sacred Weapon, rendered immobile. Your face darkened, realizing you were too greedy and shouldn’t have pushed the Mo Family Young Master too hard. If you hadn’t, neither Lin Yuanyuan nor Cai Yonglong would have died.】

【The Mo Family Young Master’s face contorted in hatred towards you. The Sacred Weapon’s spirit awakening meant his disgraceful actions were seen and would be reported back to the Mo Family. His status as the Young Master was now at risk. Although he had fought his way to the top among his siblings, there were still numerous others close in power.】

【Today, he was humiliated by using a secret technique to bind his life to an inferior emperor, and his surrender to the lower realm was a disgrace. Unless he successfully returned the demon weapon to the Mo Family, his status as the Young Master was unstable.】

【Thus, the Mo Family Young Master hated you deeply but was helpless. Since you were suppressed, he would also be suppressed unless you willingly unsealed yourself and stopped stirring trouble, allowing him to enter the Forbidden Ground of the Primordial Holy Land to carry out his plan.】

“High expectations really lead to disappointment. I had just hoped for substantial gains, and now this…”

Wang Ping felt speechless reading the simulation content.

He had just considered himself to have reaped significant rewards, thinking this wave would firmly break through to the Void God Realm.

But before he could rejoice, he was suppressed.

The Sacred Weapon was a major issue.

“If taken too far, it provokes the awakening of the weapon’s spirit. Seems like I’ll need to change my strategy next time I simulate.”
Wang Ping looked at the simulation content, contemplating silently.

As for this simulation, it was most likely a failure.

However, Wang Ping didn’t mind. There were still several opportunities to try again, eventually, he’d get through the tough spot.

While Wang Ping thought this, the text continued to appear.

【Next, you chose to negotiate with Mo Family Young Master, telling him it was impossible to subdue the demonic weapon; doing so would only lead to death. In response, the Mo Family Young Master’s expression kept changing, but he ultimately didn’t believe you.】

【After all, this concerned a significant fortune and his status as Young Master, not to mention his future position as the head of the Mo Family; how could he retreat now?】

【Seeing that the Mo Family Young Master was determined to go his own way, you were speechless. You negotiated once more, asking him to hand over the divine sources to help you break through to the Void God Realm, promising to cooperate with him.】

【The Mo Family Young Master responded with a cold snort, completely ignoring your request. After all, if you broke through to the Void God Realm, his situation would worsen. Moreover, the spirit of the Sacred Weapon was watching, making it even more impossible for him to back down.】

【Realizing the Mo Family Young Master was unmoved, you had no choice but to follow him. In the end, just as in your memories, you both met tragic deaths twice.】

【Due to your death, this simulation ends.】

As the text simulation stopped, Wang Ping’s consciousness wavered, and he found himself in the Forbidden Ground of the Primordial Holy Land, filled with many scenes and insights in his mind.

After absorbing the insights, Wang Ping looked at the empty Forbidden Ground of the Primordial Holy Land, shook his head, and exited the immersive simulation state.

At that moment, the System’s voice rang again.

“Ding, rewards generated successfully. The host can choose one from the following rewards:

①. Over a hundred pounds of low-grade divine source.

②. One random low-grade divine weapon.

③. One random Emperor Weapon.

④. Blue talent: Song and Dance.”

“!!!”

Seeing the reward list, Wang Ping’s eyes lit up.

He was incredibly lucky this time, directly refreshing a reward of over a hundred pounds of low-grade divine source.

This was equivalent to refreshing the total amount of low-grade divine sources on the Mo Family Young Master.

This was simply exhilarating!

With so many low-grade divine sources, he could directly break through to the Void God Realm without the hassle of making too many calculations, feeling immensely satisfied.

“System, I choose ①. Over a hundred pounds of low-grade divine source.”

Wang Ping exhaled softly and spoke in his heart.

“Ding, reward selection successful.”

As the System’s voice rang, Wang Ping felt a hundred pounds of divine source appear in his storage world, radiating terrifying divine energy.

“With this much divine source, how many Void God Realm powerhouses could it create?”

Wang Ping couldn’t help but marvel as he looked at the divine sources.

Of course, this was just wishful thinking.

Without enough talent, even with a large amount of divine source, failure was still inevitable.

For instance, the quasi-immortal of the Blood Demon Realm, who drained the divine sources of the Blood Demon Realm, still failed.

Of course, the amount of divine sources he obtained could not compare to what Wang Ping had.

“Let’s continue the simulation.”

After some thought, Wang Ping decided to continue the simulation.

With so many divine sources, he believed he would break through to the Void God Realm in the next simulation.

However, even if he could break through to the Void God Realm, Wang Ping planned not to choose the cultivation level for now.

After all, once his cultivation reached the Void God Realm, the requirements for paid simulations would become a major issue.

The cost would be astronomical… just thinking about it made Wang Ping’s scalp tingle.

Therefore, temporarily capping his cultivation, and using the King Weapons and Emperor Weapons to simulate multiple times, aiming to refresh several purple talents or even higher-level talents was the key.

With a few purple talents or even a golden talent, surviving in the Upper Realm would be much easier.

Otherwise, Wang Ping doubted he could gain enough resources for paid simulations in the Upper Realm.

“System, I want to spend five incomplete Emperor Weapons for a paid simulation.”

After calming his thoughts, Wang Ping spoke in his heart.

“Ding, successful payment, Life Simulator activated, refreshing talent…”

The System’s voice rang out.

“Ding, talent refresh successful, congratulations to the host for obtaining the red talent: Death Whisper; blue talent: Speed Enhancement.”

Red Talent: Death Whisper – Upon host’s death, this talent activates, causing the host’s body to unleash an attack beyond its limits. ps: This talent, being of special red type, is not restricted by cultivation level, thus avoiding ability reduction.

Blue Talent: Speed Enhancement – With this talent, the host’s speed is enhanced to a certain extent.
“Red Talent: Death Whisper, this red talent is really good, very practical!”

Wang Ping’s eyes brightened when he saw this newly refreshed talent.

Although this talent is only red, it releases an overwhelmingly powerful attack upon death, possibly taking the opponent down with it.

After all, who could predict that someone apparently dead could suddenly unleash an attack surpassing their peak power… It’s simply impossible to defend against.

During a evenly matched fight, even if someone manages to kill him, they wouldn’t be in a good position either and would definitely be taken out by Death Whisper.

When facing opponents much stronger than himself, it could also possibly result in a deadly counterattack.

Especially if the enemy is caught off guard when searching his body, the chances of dying from a sudden strike are not low.

The most important aspect is that this talent isn’t restricted by cultivation level, meaning it can keep up with him and be used indefinitely.

Although this talent activates only after death, it is still extremely practical.

“Ding, talent selection successful, Life Simulation starting.”

As Wang Ping was contemplating, the System’s voice chimed in. Wang Ping’s consciousness blurred, and he entered an immersive simulation state.

“System, fast forward.”

Wang Ping said without hesitation in his mind.

“Ding, fast forwarding.”

The System’s voice sounded again. The screen lit up, familiar text appeared.

【Day one, you chose to cultivate.】

【In the blink of an eye, a hundred years passed. You consumed dozens of pounds of low-grade divine sources and successfully broke through to quasi-immortal and later to the Void God Realm. During your breakthrough to the Void God Realm, you attracted an extremely terrifying Heavenly Tribulation, shaking the entire Purple Spirit Realm.】

【Faced with such a terrifying Heavenly Tribulation, signs of destruction appeared in the entire Purple Spirit Realm. And you, amidst this terrifying trial, barely succeeded in Tribulation Passing, truly stepping into the Void God Realm and becoming a powerful being at the Void God Realm.】

【Immediately, you felt an invitation from the Upper Realm. However, you forcibly suppressed this feeling, contemplating whether to wait for the Mo Family Young Master to arrive and gain some benefit before leaving the Purple Spirit Realm.】

【After considering, you chose to give up. It was deemed too risky. Rather than risking it, you opted to go to the Upper Realm first, leaving the possibility of returning to the Purple Spirit Realm for another time.】

【Nevertheless, you still had some matters to attend to. You found Ji Bingyan, informed her of certain things, and forcefully left a large amount of low-grade divine sources before directly ascending to the Upper Realm.】

“Finally broke through to the Void God Realm and ascended to the Upper Realm, it wasn’t easy at all.”

Wang Ping read the simulated content, feeling a bit sentimental.

He initially thought he’d be stuck for a long time, completely not expecting to receive such an astounding reward. Everything changed immediately; no more struggling to survive in the Purple Spirit Realm.

“I wonder what kind of marvels the Upper Realm holds…”

Wang Ping murmured in his heart.

Although he had heard some things about the Upper Realm from the Azure Flame Supreme Emperor, it was ultimately just hearsay.

In fact, the Azure Flame Supreme Emperor was merely a descendant of the Scarlet Clan who once escaped to the Purple Spirit Realm; he hadn’t personally seen what the Upper Realm was like.

As thoughts surged through Wang Ping’s mind, more text appeared.

【You’ve successfully ascended to the Upper Realm. Upon arrival, you noticed that the spiritual energy in the Upper Realm was much more abundant compared to the Purple Spirit Realm, making it easier to comprehend the universe and gain insights.】

【While you were absorbing the universe, three divine rainbows swiftly appeared, causing you to become alert. These three divine rainbows’ owners were not ordinary; their cultivation was all at the Void God Realm, and not just the early Void God Realm, but at least the mid to late stages of the Void God Realm.】

【As you remained vigilant, the three warmly greeted you and revealed their identities. They were from the three major forces in this region: the Azure Origin Divine Sect, the White Flame Divine Sect, and the Northern Snow Divine Dynasty.】

【The Upper Realm connects to many lower realms, with many fixed ascension points. Therefore, many forces established outposts near these ascension points. When someone ascends, they rush to recruit them into their forces.】

【In the Upper Realm, most forces don’t discriminate against ascendants. On the contrary, many are very enthusiastic about them. Ascendants who reach the Void God Realm, even in the Upper Realm, are considered prodigies worth nurturing, with the potential to become quasi-immortals or even true immortals.】

【A true immortal in the Upper Realm is considered a formidable figure in certain regions.】

【Since the Great Emperor of Burning Heaven suppressed darkness ten thousand years ago, the Upper Realm has gradually entered an era of declining magic, with changing world rules making cultivation increasingly difficult. Nowadays, saints are rare.】

【As such, in this golden age, the Upper Realm does not discriminate against ascendants. In this declining era, even less. Every ascendant is an excellent seedling, and nurturing them well can greatly benefit their factions.】

“So the Upper Realm doesn’t look down on ascendants. I thought it would be like some fantasy novels where after ascending, the protagonist is looked down upon and forced to mine…”

Wang Ping mused as he read the simulation content, his eyes twinkling.

“Thinking carefully, unless it’s an extremely bizarre world, this scenario is unlikely. Ascendants who reach the Upper Realm are talented, and wasting them on mining is truly wasting talent.”

After his musings, Wang Ping continued reading the screen.

【After learning about these circumstances, you were surprised by the attitude of the three major forces. Ultimately, after deliberation, you decided to join the White Flame Divine Sect. From its name, you inferred that this force specialized in fire-attribute cultivation techniques, which might benefit your cultivation.】

【Naturally, you didn’t plan to truly join them, but sought to secure a foothold in the Upper Realm, understand the situation, and then decide whether to stay or leave. By that time, even if you left the White Flame Divine Sect, you’d return something in exchange.】

【Witnessing your choice, the White Flame Divine Sect’s Void God Realm expert was delighted. The Azure Origin Divine Sect and Northern Snow Divine Dynasty experts were somewhat disappointed but said nothing more, just expressing regret.】

【You then followed the White Flame Divine Sect’s Void God Realm expert to their divine mountain. Along the way, you asked about the White Flame Divine Sect and the Upper Realm.】

【Soon, you obtained more information, not only about the declining era but also about this region.】

【The Upper Realm consists of nine small universes surrounding one major universe. Each universe can only birth one Great Emperor in an era. You’re currently in the major universe of the Upper Realm.】

【Specifically, you’re on an ancient star called Great Origin. Great Origin Ancient Star is divided into the outer region, inner region, and central region. The White Flame Divine Sect is one of the three major forces in the eastern inner region, backed by a quasi-immortal level expert.】
