287 – The Onslaught of Five Digit Talents!

On the first day, after thinking it over, you went with Emperor Tianyu to the Ghost Demon Sea and rescued Dao Yi. Because of your Six-digit Talent: Love of the Stars, the opposite sex is more prone to develop feelings for you. As a result, Dao Yi developed a strong liking for you and was very curious about you.

Next, when Dao Yi learned about your astonishing battle achievements from Emperor Tianyu, she was deeply shocked, admiring you greatly, and became even more curious about you.

You already had a high favorability toward Dao Yi. Additionally, under the influence of your Six-digit Talent: Love of the Stars, you no longer had any resistance toward matters related to a Dao companion and found them very interesting.

Soon after, the two of you naturally became Dao companions.

With your union, Emperor Tianyu was overjoyed and invited many heroes to celebrate. Who would dare decline Emperor Tianyu’s invitation? As a result, aside from some old monsters nearing the end of their lives and unable to leave seclusion, the major figures of the Upper Realm attended, including the Immortal Palace Quasi-Immortal and the Gu Family Quasi-Immortal, offering extremely precious gifts.

Even Leng Yue attended. Her arrival made you cautious, ready to battle at any moment. However, to your surprise, Leng Yue had no intention of fighting. She merely stared at you as if she had noticed something and eventually left after giving a gift.

However, before leaving, Leng Yue challenged you to a duel. You smiled lightly and accepted the challenge.

This scene left the Immortal Palace Quasi-Immortal and the Gu Family Quasi-Immortal bewildered. They couldn’t understand your relationship with Leng Yue, whether you were friends or foes.

You glanced at the two old men, a flash of murderous intent crossing your mind. However, you ultimately decided not to act. After all, they still had some value alive; killing them after the opening of the Immortal Gate wouldn’t be too late.

After the celestial banquet ended, you and Dao Yi consummated your marriage, thoroughly enjoying yourselves.

To your surprise, during your dual cultivation, the Six-digit Talent: Love of the Stars showed astonishing effects. Even though your cultivation had reached quasi-immortal level, your mana also slightly increased, subtly transforming towards immortal energy. Though the progress was small, it was not insignificant.

You thought that this special Six-digit Talent might have a much higher upper limit compared to other talents of the same level.

While you were contemplating this, the changes in Dao Yi after the dual cultivation shocked you even more. Her cultivation had a significant breakthrough, directly reaching the level of an Emperor.

Dao Yi was overjoyed by this, summoned her clothes, and prepared to pass her tribulation.

You smiled contentedly, arranging a large formation for Dao Yi to safely pass her tribulation.

The appearance of an Emperor’s tribulation shocked the cultivators of the Upper Realm. They hadn’t expected anyone to become an Emperor in this era of declining spiritual laws. However, upon seeing who had become an Emperor, their expressions turned peculiar, while Emperor Tianyu burst into joyful laughter.

With Dao Yi successfully passing her tribulation, a rumor spread throughout the Upper Realm. It was said that dual cultivating with you could easily allow someone to prove the Dao and become an Emperor. This rumor drove countless women crazy.

Of course, that is a story for later. After Dao Yi became an Emperor, she secluded herself to stabilize her cultivation. Meanwhile, you remembered your duel with Leng Yue, the senior transmigrator, and decided to keep your appointment.

Then, you and Leng Yue engaged in a world-shaking battle. This battle was not as fierce as in the previous simulation, leaning more towards a spar. Neither of you used your full arsenal, fighting only with your inherent strength. Ultimately, after an intense battle, you defeated Leng Yue.

Leng Yue nodded, indicating that although you were not your original self, you were close to becoming immortal and might complete the journey to immortality soon.

You nodded faintly, agreeing that you were indeed close to becoming immortal. However, you curiously asked if Leng Yue, as a senior transmigrator, would be able to regain freedom and leave this world once you became immortal.

Leng Yue nodded slightly, confirming that it would be possible. Soon after, he speculated that the main body of Wang Ping must have optimized his talent again. The old Life Simulator shouldn’t have been able to simulate the multiverse.

You nodded, admitting that Wang Ping’s main body had optimized the talent. However, you also mentioned that although the Life Simulator had reached five-digit talent level, it couldn’t fully simulate the multiverse, especially if the distance from this realm was too far.

Leng Yue calmly remarked that this was normal. If a five-digit talent could completely simulate the multiverse, that would be strange. To achieve such a feat, it would have to be at least a three-digit level talent.

You smiled, not finding anything wrong with Leng Yue’s statement. Then, you curiously asked what level Leng Yue’s talent was and how far he had progressed in the Heavenly Tower.

Leng Yue looked at you, knowing it was meaningless to hide. Even if he didn’t tell you in this simulation, the main body of Wang Ping would find out sooner or later. Therefore, he revealed his details. His talent was six-digit, and he had reached the fourth level of the Heavenly Tower.

This result didn’t surprise you. Instead, you were curious about which mode Leng Yue had chosen when venturing through the Heavenly Tower.

Leng Yue frowned, staring at You for several seconds before finally answering. He always chose Hell Mode.

Hearing this, You were quite surprised, yet found it entirely reasonable. For someone like Leng Yue, who possessed great audacity and ambition, choosing Difficult Mode was impossible. As for Abyss Mode, the danger level was too high. Leng Yue was cautious, just not as cautious as him. Thus, Hell Mode was the right choice.

Next, You didn’t ask Leng Yue about the second, third, or fourth levels of the Heavenly Tower. You knew he wouldn’t say.

After all, the rules of the Heavenly Tower wouldn’t accommodate your reasoning. If you dared to violate them, you’d be obliterated. Even in your Life Simulation, this was the case.

Afterwards, You didn’t say much more to Leng Yue and planned to leave.

However, as You were about to leave, Leng Yue asked again if You wanted to use the Refining World Grand Formation to become immortal. If You didn’t use it, he would. He would then avoid the starry region and ancient stars You valued.

Leng Yue’s words left You momentarily stunned. After all, this was unexpected. But You quickly understood the reason. In previous simulations, Leng Yue might have had some desire for the Chaos Body, so he would always wait to kill the simulated Wang Ping before activating the formation.

However, Leng Yue was no longer Your match. Although he also had trump cards, he guessed that You did too. Since he wasn’t confident, he naturally gave up on attacking You. But the Refining World Grand Formation couldn’t be wasted, and Leng Yue also wanted to become immortal, hence his words.

You were slightly taken aback, not expecting Leng Yue to speak to You, as the simulated Wang Ping, about using the Refining World Grand Formation. Before this, only the real Wang Ping could enjoy such treatment. It made You marvel at the changes brought by increased strength and optimized talent.

However, You still refused Leng Yue’s proposal. To become immortal by refining the Ten Great Universes was something You couldn’t bring Yourself to do. At the same time, You didn’t want Leng Yue to do such a thing either.

Seeing Your response, there wasn’t much change in Leng Yue’s expression. He simply remarked that sometimes You’re too kind, and that in the pursuit of strength, other lives mean nothing.

You were silent upon hearing this. Perhaps You were indeed naive. Without a demonic talent, You wouldn’t choose to do such a crazy thing. But everyone has their own Dao, and You didn’t think You were wrong.

Next, You stated You had another way to become immortal and invited Leng Yue to join You.

Surprised, Leng Yue hadn’t expected You to have another method for becoming immortal. But recalling Your Golden Finger, he shook his head, thinking it might be a very normal thing.

Then, Leng Yue said that if You could become immortal through other means, he wouldn’t use the Refining World Grand Formation. The premise being, You must be able to become immortal by other means. Otherwise, he would activate the Refining World Grand Formation, even if it meant fighting You to the death.

Faced with Leng Yue’s obsession, You felt helpless, indicating that while You couldn’t guarantee immortality, with Your current talent, there was a seventy-to-eighty percent chance.

Hearing this, Leng Yue frowned slightly but chose to believe You. He then asked about Your method of becoming immortal.

You didn’t hide anything, explaining about the ancient Immortal Tree and the sealed Evil Immortal, stating that as long as You go to the ancient Immortal Tree’s world and obtain its essence, You could condense an immortal body. Then, when the Immortal Gate opens, together You could defeat the sealed Evil Immortal to obtain enough energy to become immortal.

Of course, You didn’t mention one thing: You possessed the Holy Light Staff, with which You could single-handedly deal with the Evil Immortal. However, using the Holy Light Staff was not ideal, as the Evil Immortal would turn to ashes, leaving nothing behind. That would mean You gain nothing useful.

In that case, it would be meaningless to You. After all, You weren’t a zealot, and Your aim wasn’t simply to kill the Evil Immortal. Killing the Evil Immortal was just a means to become stronger. If the Evil Immortal turned to ashes and was of no use to You, Your actions would be pointless.

However, if You act alone, You might not even be able to force the Evil Immortal to give up resistance. The demonic Wang Ping, who gained battle power through transformation, barely managed to do this. The current You is much weaker than the demonic Wang Ping, making it impossible to do it alone.

Even if You condensed an immortal body, it wouldn’t drastically transform Your power. The immortal body mostly enhances physical strength, vitality, and recovery, slightly improving Your combat ability, but not transforming it. Therefore, Your power still wouldn’t surpass the demonic Wang Ping.

Given these circumstances, recruiting Leng Yue to fight the Evil Immortal together was necessary. Of course, using the Cursed Doll was still wasteful for dealing with a sealed Evil Immortal.

Instead of using that item, Wang Ping would rather share the opportunity for immortality with Leng Yue, this transmigrator senior.

Hearing Your words, Leng Yue was surprised again. He then narrowed his eyes and remarked that while he knew the Immortal Palace had many secrets, he didn’t expect it to be involved with the sealed Evil Immortal. Apparently, the Immortal Palace Quasi-Immortal became quasi-immortal because of the Evil Immortal’s blessings.

You nodded, having already anticipated this. It’s likely the Immortal Palace Quasi-Immortal and the Gu Family Quasi-Immortal both broke through to the quasi-immortal level with the help of the Evil Immortal. Thus, their lives were controlled by the Evil Immortal.

Next, Leng Yue suggested collaborating with you to break through the quasi-immortal stage by slaying the Evil Immortal and proving the Dao to become immortal…

In response, you smiled faintly, not surprised by Leng Yue’s choice as a senior transmigrator. You then invited him to go with you to the world of the ancient Immortal Tree to make a deal with it…

Leng Yue nodded without hesitation and prepared to follow you out of this world directly…

However, just as you were about to leave, an anomaly suddenly occurred. The barrier of the Upper Realm was abruptly breached, and a figure appeared in this world…

This made your pupils contract as you looked over. Not only you, but Leng Yue also stared intently at the figure breaking through the boundary…

As you looked over, the figure gazed down at you both, showing surprise, then sneered, saying that the group leader spent an enormous price to send him to deal with you, which was the correct choice. In such a short time, you had already become quasi-immortal and even reached the Great Success Domain with a Chaos Body…

Hearing this, you squinted, realizing that the person before you was a significant figure from the Second-Generation Chat Group, superior to quasi-immortal, already immortal, or a terrifying strongman in the five-digit domain…

However, a five-digit existence cannot easily come to this world, so this senior transmigrator from the Second-Generation Chat Group must have been sent here at great expense by Dao Yi, and sealed his cultivation through some means, lowering his power to below the five-digit level…

Of course, even though his level was suppressed, he still far exceeded ordinary quasi-immortals. Moreover, with the five-digit techniques, his strength was undoubtedly astonishing…

Besides, it was no surprise that this senior transmigrator did not appear in the previous simulation because he was still on his way to this world. Due to the distance, he wasn’t simulated…

This time, entering the simulation range, he suddenly appeared. Calculating the time, there should not be much time left in reality until this guy arrives. Considering this, no wonder the previous option was mandatory rather than optional…

However, you knew now was not the time to dwell on this. You gathered your thoughts and stepped forward with a cold smile, saying that the Second-Generation Chat Group really liked sending people to their deaths one after another…

Hearing your words, the transmigrator from the Second-Generation Chat Group, Mu Xicheng, immediately turned grim, remarking that you were too arrogant. As a five-digit elite, he could kill you with a single glance, and even now, with his power restricted, killing you was still a piece of cake…

Upon hearing this, you squinted, realizing how ruthless Dao Yi was, thinking that sending an entry-level five-digit expert wasn’t safe enough and directly dispatched an elite five-digit expert to kill you…

However, you were already accustomed to Dao Yi’s style. He liked to send people several levels stronger than you to kill you, but he never anticipated your growth speed was more monstrous than he imagined, with more cards up your sleeve, leading to repeated failures…

Predictably, this senior transmigrator from the Second-Generation Chat Group must have brought many potent items to deal with you. Therefore, you must not underestimate him…

While you were pondering this, Leng Yue’s gaze turned cold, and without hesitation, he attacked the transmigrator Mu Xicheng. As Leng Yue attacked, terrifying anomalies appeared, shaking the world…

In response, Mu Xicheng snorted coldly, saying that since this trash transmigrator Leng Yue wanted to die, he would grant it…

As he spoke, Mu Xicheng erupted with incredibly terrifying power and engaged in a fierce battle with Leng Yue. The terrifying power he unleashed was not weaker than the strongest Evil God energy, and perhaps even stronger. This was the result of his sealed power; otherwise, his outburst would certainly be extremely dreadful, beyond any true immortal’s ability to resist…

Mu Xicheng’s power made Leng Yue cautious. However, using his space-based talent, he dodged the attacks and continued to launch astounding assaults. You also made a timely move, cooperating with Leng Yue to battle Mu Xicheng…

With your combined forces, few in the world could match you, but Mu Xicheng was not a quasi-immortal and clearly had numerous techniques. Therefore, even with your joint efforts, you fell into a disadvantage…

Nonetheless, you were not alarmed and each unleashed your ultimate moves. You activated the seven-colored talent: Flashes of Ephemeral Splendor, elevating your combat power to a terrifying level. Leng Yue also, for the first time, used a life-risking secret technique not used in the last simulation, significantly boosting his combat power…

Your outburst caused Mu Xicheng’s face to change, feeling immense pressure, and he went from having the upper hand to being at a disadvantage, getting beaten up crazily by you and Leng Yue…

Mu Xicheng felt extremely aggrieved, thinking that if his power wasn’t restricted, how could he be beaten like this by two six-digit limits…

Finally, Mu Xicheng roared in anger and directly exploded, unleashing an item. This item split Mu Xicheng into five, with no decline in combat power…

In an instant, you went from two against one to two against five, and the pressure was back on you…

Seeing this, you felt a headache, knowing your opponent came prepared, with countless trump cards…

Leng Yue furrowed his brows, knowing the opponent would be difficult to deal with. Thus, he transmitted a message to you, stating that he could buy some time while you directly activate the World Refining Grand Formation to refine everything. Now was not the time for hesitation.

Hearing this, you felt helpless but knew it was indeed not the time to hesitate, so you followed Leng Yue’s suggestion.

Immediately, Leng Yue used his trump card, utilizing a control-type item to lure the five Mu Xicheng into a space, trapping Mu Xicheng. Then he revealed the complete incantation of the World Refining Grand Formation to you.

However, before you could put your plan into action, Mu Xicheng presented another item. The item was, surprisingly, a control release-type item.

As he used this item, the tool trapping him disintegrated instantly. The five Mu Xicheng attacked Leng Yue and you again, leaving you no time to activate the World Refining Grand Formation.

Seeing this, Leng Yue frowned, realizing this wasn’t a solution, and he began considering taking you away. Given his talent, if he intended to escape, the chances were pretty high.

While Leng Yue contemplated escaping, you sent a message to Leng Yue, asking him to activate the World Refining Grand Formation while you bought some time.

Upon hearing this, Leng Yue didn’t hesitate, fully believing in you, and went to do what he had to do.

You laughed coldly, then seized Mu Xicheng and self-detonated directly. Your self-detonation affected the five Mu Xichengs, and the power of your detonation was terrifying enough to make the five Mu Xicheng quite embarrassed.

This made him somewhat exasperated. At that moment, Leng Yue seized the opportunity, reached the stone platform, directly activated the World Refining Grand Formation, and you were revived.

However, this activation of the World Refining Grand Formation wasn’t to refine the Upper Realm and help him break through to the True Immortal level, as there wasn’t enough time for that. This time, his purpose for using the World Refining Grand Formation was to attempt to refine Mu Xicheng.

As Leng Yue utilized the power of the World Refining Grand Formation, Mu Xicheng also sensed the danger. However, he remained unperturbed, sneering as he produced another item. This item was a precious tool capable of instantly killing a targeted opponent, a rare five-digit item. Once it locked onto an enemy, it could kill the enemy.

Seeing this item, your expression changed slightly. You had previously been attacked by such an item, but at that time, the item was only effective below the Supreme Realm, capable of killing unconditionally and preventing revival. That item was a six-digit item.

The one at hand was a five-digit item, capable of killing any being below the five-digit level, preventing revival unless a five-digit level resurrection item was used.

In other words, if Mu Xicheng used this item, either you or Leng Yue was destined to fall here.

Therefore, you knew it wasn’t the time for hesitation, and without a second thought, you took out the five-digit item, the Cursed Doll, and destroyed it.

The use conditions of the Cursed Doll were evidently much simpler than the item in Mu Xicheng’s possession. As you directly used the five-digit item, the Cursed Doll, to destroy it, Mu Xicheng’s expression turned rigid, and all the Mu Xicheng became motionless, subsequently turning to ashes, with no trace left behind.

Seeing this, you finally breathed a sigh of relief. Following that, you felt somewhat apprehensive. Fortunately, you had the five-digit intermediate special item, the Cursed Doll, otherwise, you really wouldn’t have been able to deal with Mu Xicheng.

It’s not that your strength was inferior to his suppressed power. As proven earlier, killing him when teaming up wasn’t challenging. However, Mu Xicheng had evidently brought numerous precious items this time.

In the battles within the Allheavens Playground, it’s never just about one’s power, talent, items, and skills; they significantly influence the outcome. The weak can defeat the strong with the help of special items and skills.

If you hadn’t used the five-digit special item, the Cursed Doll, this time, you would probably have fallen into this guy’s hands. After all, nobody knew how many terrifying items he still had.

This Mu Xicheng is really a nuisance. Fortunately, I have the five-digit special item, the Cursed Doll…

Wang Ping looked at the text simulation content, his brows tightly furrowed.

At the same time, Wang Ping understood one thing, he must act first, immediately.

Otherwise, when Mu Xicheng comes to this world in reality, there’s a chance he could fall into his hands.

Although using a five-digit special item on Mu Xicheng might seem wasteful, for the sake of safety, it has to be done…

Wang Ping’s eyes flickered, and he sighed.

He had just returned from Allheavens Playground not long ago, and it would take some time to go back again.

Although, because he had passed Abyss Mode, his cooldown time was much shorter than others; one month was enough. However, Wang Ping wasn’t sure if Mu Xicheng in reality would speed up his actions due to some sort of intuition.

Intuition is quite an enigmatic thing, and no one can say for sure.

For this reason, Wang Ping felt he had to guard against the other party and couldn’t afford to save on using items.

“Perhaps, after killing him, all his items will belong to me…”

Wang Ping couldn’t help but console himself in his heart.

This wasn’t an entirely impossible scenario.

Although the likelihood of such a thing happening was a bit low because many times the owners of items would have safeguards such that when they died, the items would either be reclaimed or self-destruct. However, since the Cursed Doll was doing the killing, unusual situations might arise.

While Wang Ping was pondering, the text simulation continued.

【Leng Yue looked at the dead Mu Xicheng with rare astonishment, then deeply glanced at you. Apparently, he had guessed something, but he didn’t openly say it.】

【Next, you searched Mu Xicheng’s body, trying to find his items. Unfortunately, you were disappointed. All his items self-destructed the moment he died. This was obviously the doing of the Second-Generation Chat Group leader Dao Yi. It had to be said that this guy was indeed a crafty old fox.】

【However, you soon smiled with joy, spotting an item. It was a special item shaped like a sphere. After grabbing it, your knowledge reserves informed you of its name and effect.】

【The item’s name is Beast Summoning Orb, a five-digit item that can randomly summon a phantom beast to aid in battle. This phantom beast is at the five-digit entry-level and has quite decent combat power.】

【You guessed in your heart that this item should belong to Mu Xicheng himself, so it hadn’t self-destructed. Moreover, since the summoned phantom beast is at the five-digit entry-level, he couldn’t summon it and thus hadn’t used it earlier, making it seem like a useless item.】

【However, you quickly despised Mu Xicheng for being poor. As a strong five-digit elite, he only had a five-digit entry-level item, which was truly shameful. You couldn’t help but wonder if this guy had lost most of his fortune, or if he wasn’t doing well in Allheavens Playground.】

【Of course, you also suspected that the previous effect from the Cursed Doll had caused all of the six-digit items he had to destroy upon his death, and only this five-digit item survived due to its quality.】

【Next, after slightly recovering from his injuries, Leng Yue inquired about the ancient Immortal Tree world.】

【You felt speechless about this. You had to admire Leng Yue’s mentality. Even after being heavily injured from using his trump card, he was still concerned about the opportunity to become immortal.】

【Then, without saying much, you took out the Holy Light Staff and began to heal Leng Yue.】

【Of course, as you had just used the Holy Light Staff, a thought crossed your mind: would Leng Yue, who had detached from the Source of Darkness, get killed by this light?】

【But it was too late to take it back. Fortunately, Leng Yue seemed to have entirely escaped from the Source of Darkness. After being illuminated by the Holy Light Staff, he wasn’t destroyed but rather had most of his injuries healed, with the remainder healing rapidly.】

【At this point, you looked at him with strange eyes but didn’t say much. Leng Yue, staring at your Holy Light Staff, also gave you a deep look. However, he still didn’t inquire.】

【Next, you proceeded forward and reached the world where the ancient Immortal Tree resided. When you arrived, it triggered two astonishing phenomena.】

【The appearance of these two phenomena left the numerous cultivators in shock, made the quasi-immortals apprehensive, and even caught the attention of the ancient Immortal Tree.】

【Next, both you and Leng Yue retracted the phenomena and approached the ancient Immortal Tree directly. Your arrival made the ancient Immortal Tree take you very seriously, sensing the extraordinary nature of both you and Leng Yue.】

【As a familiar elder manifested, you immediately brought up the topic of trading with the ancient Immortal Tree. Leng Yue, on the other hand, contemplated whether to directly chop down the ancient Immortal Tree.】
