Chapter 58 - 58: A New Extraordinary
[You heard the news, and your heart chilled, knowing that the Demon was about to emerge, and Xia would be in turmoil. In response, you took Bai Tianhong with you to the Imperial City to meet Empress Xia Yuan and informed her of what you knew.]
[For a moment, Empress Xia Yuan understood why you were searching for someone named MO Fan, and Bai Tianhong also knew why you wanted him to accompany you on your journey.]
[However, both of them were very confused about how you knew these things in advance, but due to the friendship between you, neither of them delved deeper into the matter.]
[In the following days, the Empress issued a decree to the world, beginning the hunt for demonic cultivators. However, the demonic cultivators were extremely cunning and difficult to trace. You knew that MO Fan was about to strike at the Wu family. As a result, in the Daya calendar’s 511th year, you chose to bring Bai Tianhong and the masters of the Xia Royal Family to the Wu family to await the enemy.]
[In the 511th year of Daya calendar, the Wu family was silently annihilated by the demonic cultivator, leaving no survivors. After the demonic cultivator made a move, Bai Tianhong and the Xia masters also took action, hunting down the demonic cultivator. However, what you didn’t expect was that the demonic cultivator’s secret skill was extremely terrifying. Although he was no match for Bai Tianhong and the Xia Ancestor, he managed to escape with his life.]
[You were deeply regretful that you could not kill him, and a shadow appeared in your heart.]
[The news of Bai Tianhong’s failure to hunt down the demon shocked the world and drew attention, and everyone realized that they would not be safe unless the demon was eradicated. The matter concerned the life and death of everyone. As a result, everyone began to consciously search for traces of demonic cultivators. Even Chu State and Zhao State had heard the news, and they wanted to help. After all, if the demonic cultivator were to grow stronger, they would be in great danger.]
[However, because of their previous setbacks, the demonic cultivators became more cautious. They often took actions but were very clean about it and often changed their appearances, making it difficult for others to find them.]
[Bai Tianhong insisted on continuing to retreat to break through to the half-step Transcendent Realm before the demon, otherwise, it would be very troublesome. To this, you could only agree. However, in your heart, you knew that it was too difficult to compete with Demon MO Fan for the speed of breakthrough.]
[A year passed, and Xia was very peaceful, as if Demon MO Fan had stopped killing. However, you knew very well that this was just the calm before the storm.]
[In December of 512th year of the Daya calendar, the Demon appeared once more. This time, he appeared directly in the Imperial City, his cultivation reaching the half-step Transcendent Realm. He slaughtered everyone in the Imperial Palace, leaving no survivors and causing a stir in the world. Hearing the news, your heart became heavy, knowing that the Demon had become invincible yet again.]
[Facing the invincible Demon, you had no choice but to suggest to the Sword Spirit Sect to move their entire sect. Otherwise, sooner or later, Demon MO Fan would attack the sect, leaving corpses everywhere.]
[Regarding your proposal, the Supreme Elders of the Sword Spirit Sect did not agree. In their view, although the Demon was rampant, the Sword Spirit Sect possessed a spiritual tool. As long as Bai Tianhong was armed with it, even a half-step Transcendent Realm opponent could be fought. As a result, they instead hoped that Demon MO Fan would attack the sect so they could eliminate him completely and put an end to the problem once and for all.]
[Seeing that the higher-ups of the Sword Spirit Sect would not listen to your advice, you sighed and made a decision in your heart.]
[Three days later, the Demon stepped into the Sword Spirit Sect and fought alone against all the strong members of the sect. Bai Tianhong came out of seclusion, but still failed to break through to the Transcendent Realm, not even reaching the half-step Transcendent Realm. As such, even with Bai Tianhong holding the Spirit Sword and teaming up with many powerful members of the Sword Spirit Sect to fight against the Demon, they were no match for him.]
[In the end, Bai Tianhong died, and the Sword Spirit Sect was destroyed. During this process, you revealed your identity as a 4th Tier Alchemist and willingly joined the Demon in order to lay low and gain his trust before poisoning him to death.]
[After learning of your 4th Tier Alchemist identity, the Demon considered you a talent and took you in, making you one of his subordinates. However, he did not trust you and planted a demonic mark in your heart, allowing him to detonate your heart with a secret technique regardless of where you may escape to.]
[In the blink of an eye, twenty years had passed, and your cultivation had improved significantly during this time.]
[In these twenty years, the Demon established an overworld demon nation and began to hunt down the strong practitioners of the Profound Turtle Continent. Even hiding deep in the mountains and forests did not help them.]
[Half a year later, the Demon consumed the flesh and blood of all the cultivators he hunted, cultivated his demonic skills, and sought to break through to the Transcendent Realm. You were aware that when the time came for him to make his breakthrough, you and the other demon generals would all be food for him. Therefore, you could only look for an opportunity to deliver the refined elixir, hoping to interfere with the Demon’s breakthrough and cause his downfall. In the end, the Demon was disrupted, became enraged, and crushed your heart.] [Due to your death, this life simulation has come to an end…]
“I still died after all.
Wang Ping looked at the result and was not surprised.
Because after all, Sword Spirit Sect was not Chi Village they couldn’t just move away, abandoning an enormous estate was not possible.
Moreover, with so many people in the Sword Spirit Sect, even if they moved the entire sect, it would not be easy to hide.
So, if the Demon doesn’t die, it will eventually end up like this.
“However, I was caught off guard by the fact that the demon, who attacked the Wu family, managed to escape from Bai Tianhong’s hands. That was truly unexpected.”
Wang Ping frowned and felt heavy-hearted.
At that time, Bai Tianhong probably didn’t have the Green Spirit Sword with him, but he still had an invincible level of strength, along with the masters of the Xia Royal Family. The demonic cultivator still managed to escape under the joint pursuit of these masters. His life-saving abilities were truly astonishing. “I really don’t know how to deal with this demon.”
Wang Ping had a headache.
But soon, he thought about his upcoming System Task, and the headache became even worse.
He doesn’t have much time to think about so many things now.
“Ding, Reward generation successful, the host can choose one of the following rewards:
White Talent – Escape Master.
@. Green Talent – Immunity to All Poisons.
Martial Arts.
Life Experience.”
“These four rewards…
Wang Ping’s eyes flickered.
He wanted all four rewards.
Whether it was the Escape Master or Immunity to All Poisons, they could both enhance his ability to save his life.
As for the fourth one, Life Experience, Wang Ping also wanted that.
Because with the life experience, he could figure out the truth and falsehood of the demon, witness his appearance, and the ability of his demonic skills.
That way, he could better strangle them in the cradle or kill the others during Bai Tianhong’s battle.
However, unfortunately, there was no cultivation reward he wanted the most this time.
“System, I choose
After some thought, Wang Ping finally chose @.
Because he needed the talent of Immunity to All Poisons, and next time it might not be available.
Next, Wang Ping instructed the maids in the tower, saying that he would seclude himself for some time and then entered the tower’s meditation room, bolting the door.
“System, I want to do a paid Life Simulation.”
Wang Ping glanced at the time and saw that there were still a few minutes left before speaking again.
“Ding, this paid simulation requires 512 Lower Tier Spirit Stones, do you want to pay immediately?”
The system’s voice rang out.
“Pay.” Wang Ping’s face twitched slightly as he said.
Exponential growth in consumption, this really hurt.
However, in order to become stronger and survive the upcoming Group Task, he had no choice but to indulge in such extravagant spending.
Hopefully, he could get a cultivation reward this time, or else it would be troublesome..
