[The simulation is over. You can choose one of the following.]
[1: Obtain Trait (Selectable)]
[2: Obtained attribute points]
[3: Obtain any part of the life experience (including but not limited to memories)]
[Current Balance: 30 taels of gold]
“This time, Ji Baiwei didn’t hate me and even gained a lot of benefits.”
“However, this Vajra Technique can really increase one’s foundation. However, this cultivation process is too abnormal!”
“Isn’t the pain of being cut into a thousand pieces the torture of dismemberment? It’s one of the ten ancient tortures in my previous life.”
Han Zhao looked at the information in the simulation and couldn’t help but be speechless.
In the simulation, he was really forced into a corner by this low-grade foundation.
His foundation was too poor, so he could only use money and resources to forcefully accumulate his realm. In the long run, the consumption was indeed too great, and the upper limit was low.
The Vajra Technique was indeed worthy of being a cultivation method passed down by the Heavenly Saint Sect. It could increase one’s foundation.
This cultivation technique might be fatal to most martial artists, but it was a priceless treasure to him.
In reality, he could improve the Vajra Technique by adding points. This way, he would not have to endure the pain of being cut into pieces.
The previous simulation was because his foundation was poor. He was stuck at the Greater Mastery stage of Force Tempering and could not break through to the Visceral Tempering Grandmaster Realm.
Not to mention raising his foundation to the upper level, even if it could only be raised to the middle level, it was a qualitative increase for him.
This trip was a huge gain!
“I choose one.”
[Obtained Trait: Barehanded Martial Saint]
[Barehanded Martial Saint]: Green Trait. The aptitude for fist, palm, leg, finger, and claw cultivation will increase by four times. When the fist, palm, leg, finger, and claw martial arts cultivated reach Greater Mastery, there is a certain chance of breaking through the upper limit and a very small chance of comprehending a fusion technique. (It can be upgraded to a Blue Trait through cultivation. The upper limit is Purple Trait.)
“Huh?!” Looking at the Trait effect, Han Zhao was shocked.
Apart from the Yin Fiend Palm, he was also prepared to cultivate the Mountain Shaking Fist.
Moreover, after this mission, he would not lack cultivation resources in a short period of time like before. He no longer needed to save every penny.
It was time to practice a leg technique!
Otherwise, if he encountered an enemy he could not defeat in the future and could not escape, he would be finished.
This message came at the right time.
“In that case, my alias can no longer be called ‘Sword and Saber Duo’ in the future. Instead, it’s called the Five Absolutes of Saber, Sword, Fist, Palm, and Leg. Together with finger and claw techniques, it’s the Seven Absolutes!”
“The Internal Force cultivated by the Mountain Splitting Saber Technique and the Mountain Shaking Fist Technique comes from the same source. It seems like it can fuse the two types of Internal Force.”
“With the Trait effect of the [Barehanded Martial Saint], the Internal Force cultivated from fist techniques, palm techniques, leg techniques, finger techniques, and claw techniques might be able to fuse.”
Han Zhao’s eyes lit up.
In the simulation, he did not have the help of attribute points and Traits. His realm did not increase quickly, but as long as he was invincible among his peers and could even fight across realms, it could clearly greatly increase his survival rate.
Although this was not something that could be done in a short period of time, he could return to Blackrock City and slowly develop.
If one or two years was not enough, then three to five years, ten years, twenty years!
He did not have to cultivate quietly for so long, but there was indeed no need to risk his life in a big city for the time being.
In any case, his current demand for high-quality medicinal herbs, high-level medicinal pills, and high-level cultivation methods was very low.
As long as he had money and Yin energy and a stable cultivation environment, he could always hide and simulate safely.
Whether he died in the simulation did not affect him from becoming stronger in reality.
The night Han Zhao and Ji Baiwei arrived at Jade Wind City.
Taoyuan Village.
Under the bright moonlight, the black fog that had enveloped Taoyuan Village had completely dissipated.
At this moment, a ball of golden fog descended from the clouds and instantly appeared above Taoyuan Village.
Boom!
The ground suddenly shook, and the fog gradually dissipated, revealing a humanoid creature five meters tall.
He had two horns on his head and was wearing an inner armor made of unknown beast skin. On his exposed face and limbs, there were dense golden scales the size of copper coins.
These scales seemed to be made of pure gold. Under the moonlight, they flowed with a dense cold light, making people afraid and not dare to look at them directly.
“The Anomaly here has just taken shape not long ago. Why is the origin of the
Yin energy almost exhausted? Even a Snake-level can’t do this. Could it be… a Weapon Master?!”
The person who came looked puzzled.
Suddenly, he frowned and turned to look at the empty place behind him. He said in a low voice, “Heaven Fiend King, since you’re already here, why are you still hiding? Come out!”
“Life Killer King, you’re a popular person in front of the Great Sage. What brings you here?”
A slightly hoarse voice sounded.
A young man about twenty years old walked out of the darkness. He had long black hair that reached his shoulders. His skin was slightly pale, and his face was thin. His eyes were long and narrow. From the outside, he looked like an ordinary young man with a sickly appearance, but his pupils were strange golden vertical pupils. He wore a black and white Yin-Yang fish earring.
The young man called the Heaven Fiend King was only about 1.7 meters tall. In front of the Life Killer King, he was like a child.
However, his expression was not afraid at all. There was even a hint of teasing.
The Life Killer King ignored the other party’s sarcasm and said indifferently, “The last Essence Soul Bead might have landed in Cloud Prefecture. I’m here on the Great Sage’s orders to find it.”
The Heaven Fiend King was stunned when he heard that. “With your style, shouldn’t you just offer a blood sacrifice?”
“I only sacrificed a small city at the edge of the Cloud Prefecture and the Spirit Guardian took action. The Cao family has already announced that if there’s a next time, it will be considered a declaration of war.
Life Killer King’s expression was a little gloomy.
“How troublesome! I still have to hide my tracks. I wonder when I’ll find them?”
“That’s true.” The Heaven Fiend King nodded. “If we want to find the Essence Soul Bead, we have to sacrifice at least one prefecture and tens of millions of living beings. Although we’re demons, if we imitate the actions of the Chaos
Divine Alliance, we’ll probably attract the siege of many countries. The Great Sage won’t agree either.”
“Don’t talk nonsense.” Life Killer King snorted. “This is your territory. You have to help.”
“Since it’s an order from the Great Sage, I’ll naturally take action.” The Heaven Fiend King smiled faintly and changed the topic. “I heard that the Hundred Spirit Sect in Chu seems to have reached some kind of deal with the White Tiger Aristocratic Family and are jointly exerting pressure on the Cao family. We can join forces with them.
Spirit Sect in Chu seems to have reached some kind of deal with the White Tiger Aristocratic Family and are jointly exerting pressure on the Cao family. We can join forces with them.
“If the Cao family still doesn’t agree, we’ll drag the Qi State down with us. Anyway, the Jiang family and the Cao family are mortal enemies. They’ll definitely be willing to kick us when we’re down.”
“These humans really like internal strife!” Life Killer King sneered. “However, this is a good idea. As long as the war in the Cloud Prefecture begins, regardless of whether they agree or not, we can carry out a blood sacrifice.”
“If the humans didn’t fight among themselves, how could the Great Qin Empire, which shocked the four seas and looked down on the Eight Desolates, collapse? How could our demon race have the chance to rise?”
The Heaven Fiend King’s eyes revealed a complicated expression of yearning and mockery.
He really hoped that he had been born in that era when martial arts were at their peak. That way, he could stand on the shoulder of a giant and perfect his demonic technique. Perhaps he could change from a demon to a human through blood exchange. At that time, he would have a chance to see the peak of martial arts and not be restricted by the shackles of race and be stuck at his current realm.
“I’ll leave this matter to you.” Life Killer King said in a deep voice.
The Heaven Fiend King pondered for a moment and said, “It’s easy to attract the attention of the Spirit Guardians if we appear in Yuan Chang County at the same time. It’s better for you to instruct the Longevity Sect to do the things here. They have the best way to deal with the humans.”
“Yeah.”
Life Killer King soared into the sky, raising a ball of golden fog that instantly disappeared into the distant horizon..
