Chapter 192: The Second Generation Leader! The Supreme Artifact in Hand

"However, even though you were certain that your next destination was the Canglan Ancient Star, you still underestimated the dangers of the cosmic space. While traveling through the cosmos using the flying sacred artifact, you unfortunately encountered an energy storm."

"Faced with such a terrifying energy storm, even a saint might not have been able to escape unscathed. Relying solely on the flying sacred artifact, you obviously had no way out. Therefore, you perished within the energy storm."

"Because of your death, this simulation ends."

The text simulation came to a halt at this point, and various scenes appeared in Wang Ping's mind. Finally, his figure appeared in the midst of the starry sky, looking at the turbulent void energy storm in the deep starry expanse with a mixture of awe and fear.

"The universe is truly dangerous. Even in the mystical world, it's no exception. I should say that the cosmic space in the mystical world is even more dangerous," Wang Ping remarked as he observed the scene.

Wang Ping sighed as he watched it unfold.

Then, in a blink of an eye, Wang Ping's consciousness flickered, his perspective changed, and he returned to the real world.

"This free simulation has finally revealed a path. However, this path is still not safe enough," Wang Ping thought to himself.

Various calculations and the use of various trump cards were required to kill Semi-Saint Ruo Lan, and the risk factor was too high for such actions in reality.

He could only truly confront Ruo Lan and suppress her when the time came. After all, only by sealing her, rather than killing her, could he prevent the Supreme from personally coming to hunt him down.

Of course, the Supreme Artifact was also a problem. If he could intercept that Supreme Artifact, seal it as well, he would gain more time.

As for the real world, there were only two methods to survive this crisis.

One was to find a way to the central star region of the Great Universe and seek shelter from a truly powerful force.

It wasn't a declining force like the Dao Palace, but a force with a true Emperor in control.

With an Emperor in control, who would dare to act recklessly? Even the Supreme would have to bow down to me.

If he could join a force with an Emperor in control, the dangers he faced in the future would only be due to mistakes in his cultivation and unexpected accidents.

The possibility of being targeted by ancient beings would undoubtedly be minimized.

"Of course, the question is whether there are any Emperors in this era," Wang Ping shook his head and sighed.

However, regardless of whether there were Emperors or not, it was necessary to find a force that could provide him with protection.

With his qualifications as a Time-Space Dao Body, Wang Ping believed that any force he chose, as long as they were not foolish, would not give up such a promising talent.

"Should I continue with one more free simulation, simulating a journey to the Canglan Ancient Star?" Wang Ping pondered his next move.

However, he quickly dismissed the idea. "No, if there are uncertain factors, there's no need to use a free simulation. This time, I may have arrived at the Canglan Ancient Star by luck, but there's no guarantee of success next time. Free simulations won't provide any benefits. Even insights gained during the simulation would disappear after it ends, rendering them meaningless."

"I only have one remaining paid simulation opportunity, and I must use it wisely. Whether it's going to the Canglan Ancient Star or any other ancient star, the journey is long and dangerous. I'll decide later," Wang Ping concluded.

Subsequently, he began to contemplate the simulation seriously. "System, I want to initiate a paid simulation."

"Ding, consuming ten thousand pounds of low-grade divine source, Life Simulator activated, talent refresh in progress," the system's voice resounded.

"Ding, talent refresh successful. Congratulations, host, for refreshing the Red Talent: Wood Proficiency and the Blue Talent: Pessimist."

Red Talent: Wood Proficiency: The host will gain certain talents related to the wood element.

Blue Talent: Pessimist: The host will become very pessimistic but will unexpectedly gain a bit of luck.

"What kind of talents are these? It looks like my streak of good luck has run out," Wang Ping sighed when he saw the talents that had been refreshed this time.

Indeed, consecutive good talents had depleted his luck.

"System, I choose the Red Talent: Wood Proficiency," Wang Ping decided after a moment of hesitation.

The Blue Talent, while it could increase his luck a bit, seemed more like a pitfall. Becoming overly pessimistic would be detrimental to his progress in cultivation, as one needed strong beliefs to advance. Constant pessimism could easily hinder his progress.

Therefore, although the Red Talent: Wood Proficiency didn't seem particularly useful, at least it wouldn't impede his cultivation.

"Ding, talent selection successful, Life Simulator initiated."

The system's voice rang out again, and Wang Ping felt his consciousness flicker as he entered the immersive simulation mode.

Then, the screen appeared, and familiar text began to appear.

"On the first day, you chose to go to the Dao Palace. You successfully joined the Dao Palace, but this time, you didn't expose your true abilities in front of the Dao Palace Master. Instead, you became an ordinary disciple, keeping a low profile."

"Next, you followed the same actions as you remembered, successfully cultivating to the seventh level of the God Sovereign Realm. However, this time, you didn't risk guiding the time-traveling senior Ruo Lan to the Purgatory Ancient Star."

"Although there was a chance to kill her, it didn't serve much purpose. After all, your main goal in continuing to lure her with the free simulation was to test your own abilities."

"This time, you plan to kill Ruo Lan, the time-traveling senior, in a better way. Your plan is to boldly request the Emperor's Weapon and use its power to kill Ruo Lan. Although using the Emperor's Weapon to kill Ruo Lan seems like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut, you still want to give it a try."

"However, you're thinking a bit too naively. The Dao Palace Master did not agree to your request to use the Emperor's Weapon. First, you don't have enough weight in his eyes. Second, only Saints can barely control the Emperor's Weapon. Allowing the Emperor's Weapon to actively awaken would consume too much energy and entail too great a cost. Third, using the Emperor's Weapon against a Semi-Saint would be extravagant and would invite ridicule from many factions, making the Dao Palace a laughingstock in the Upper Realm."

"Listening to the Dao Palace Master's words, you feel helpless. It seems that the situation with the Emperor's Weapon is more complicated than you thought. It's not as simple as you assumed, and it can't be activated at any time."

"Seeing your frustration, the Dao Palace Master asks you why you are so eager to deal with a Semi-Saint. If you continue to cultivate for some time, it should be quite easy to kill a Semi-Saint with your own cultivation."

"You can't explain everything and can only say that she will become a Saint shortly, has a strong background, and is protected by the Supreme

. In addition, you have a deep-seated grudge, and not dealing with her now will cause trouble in the future."

"Hearing your words, the Dao Palace Master falls into silence. After hesitating, he chooses to believe you and makes a heavy decision. You are the hope of the Dao Palace's future and must not die. Therefore, he decides to invite a self-proclaimed Saint Ancestor to kill Ruo Lan."

"Hearing the Dao Palace Master's decision, you feel grateful but still think it's not entirely safe. Because Ruo Lan possesses a self-sealed Supreme Artifact, and if you can't kill her with a single blow, it will be troublesome."

"The Dao Palace Master shakes his head, indicating that if a Saint makes a move and can't kill a Semi-Saint, it would be ridiculous to consider oneself a Saint. As for the Supreme Artifact, since it's in a self-sealed state, it requires activation and takes time. During this time, a Saint could kill a Semi-Saint many times over."

"Hearing this, you stop saying anything more. In reality, you believe the success rate is high, but when dealing with a time-traveling senior, you have always been cautious. You want to ensure a complete kill, or else there's little difference from sending yourself to die."

"Soon, the self-proclaimed Saint Ancestor is invited by the Dao Palace Master. Meanwhile, you take action and leave the Dao Palace, tempting Ruo Lan to act. When Ruo Lan realizes that you've left the Dao Palace, she is surprised and cautiously follows you."

"When Ruo Lan sees you, she immediately unleashes her terrifying power, intending to strike you down with a single blow. However, just as Ruo Lan is about to attack, you use your purple talent, Nullification of Divine Abilities, directly nullifying her ability. At the same time, the hidden Saint Ancestor also starts launching a devastating attack on Ruo Lan."

"Faced with the sudden turn of events, Ruo Lan is filled with panic. She tries to activate her Supreme Artifact, but it's too late. She is directly obliterated by the terrifying attack of the Saint Ancestor."

Chapter 192: The Scene Astonished You. Saints Are Truly Powerful. Even a Half-Saint like Ruolan, who has comprehended the Laws and is about to step into the realm of Saints, couldn't withstand a single blow from a Saint. She was obliterated completely.

You couldn't help but sigh at this sight. Among the cultivators in the world, defeating a Saint in a head-on battle was an extremely challenging task.

After Ruolan's demise, the self-sealed Supreme Artifact that she carried pierced through space and disappeared without a trace. The Saint Ancestor, the Dao Palace's leader, didn't attempt to stop its departure. After all, it was a Supreme Artifact, and even a Saint wouldn't be able to stop it once it decided to leave. It would be suicidal to try.

Following that, the Saint Ancestor sighed and mentioned that he had some final matters to attend to for the Dao Palace before departing. As for you, you returned to the Dao Palace.

Not long after, the entire Taiyuan Ancient Star shook. The Dao Palace's Saint had emerged and forcefully eradicated two major forces that had previously opposed the Dao Palace and encroached on its territory. Both of these forces had self-proclaimed Saints among them.

However, the Dao Palace's Saint was simply too powerful. Even the Saints from these two opposing forces were easily annihilated by the Dao Palace's Saint. The Taiyuan Ancient Star was sent into shock because it hadn't witnessed the fall of a Saint in thousands of years. Now, with three Saints emerging at once and two of them falling, it was incredibly astonishing.

At the same time, many factions understood once again that, despite the Dao Palace's decline, it was not to be underestimated. Those who dared to provoke the Dao Palace had to reconsider their capabilities. Many forces with ill intentions towards the Dao Palace restrained their schemes, intending to change their attitude towards the Dao Palace.

As for you, you heard the news and couldn't help but be amazed. The Dao Palace's Saint was indeed formidable. Even though you couldn't defeat Ruolan, a time-traveling senior, in the previous simulations, you realized that she was a ruthless character who reached Saint level during the last era, practiced the Emperor's Scriptures, and was at the pinnacle of her abilities. The Dao Palace's Saint, who became self-proclaimed after sealing himself, couldn't easily defeat her.

However, when facing self-proclaimed Saints who were similarly close to the end of their lifespans, the situation was more equal. It would genuinely reveal who was stronger and who was weaker. Clearly, the Dao Palace's Saint, who cultivated the Dao Emperor's Scriptures, had the upper hand.

Following that, the Dao Palace's Saint returned to the Dao Palace, completed some final tasks, imparted some Saintly wisdom to you, and preserved the essence of the two Saints he had killed for your future use when you reached the Saint level. Then, he chose to ascend, returning to the cycle of life and death.

Seeing this, you had mixed feelings. In a sense, this Saint died because of you. Even if you didn't summon him to deal with Ruolan, once the terrifying expert arrived, wielding the Emperor's Weapon, the Dao Palace would still face a calamity, and nobody would survive.

Subsequently, you continued your diligent cultivation, determined to ascend to the Saint level as quickly as possible and become a powerful figure who could traverse the stars and explore the vast universe. Only by becoming stronger could you ensure the Dao Palace's heritage would not be destroyed.

Thanks to the essence of the Saints' flesh and blood refined by the Dao Palace's leader, he successfully reached the level of Half-Saint. At the same time, you used these resources to quickly enhance your strength.

In just a few decades, you reached the eighth level of the God Sovereign Realm as if it were a matter of course.

It was at this moment that the terrifying expert, who had traveled here encumbered by the Emperor's Weapon, finally arrived at the Taiyuan Ancient Star and targeted the Dao Palace. In response, the Dao Palace's last leader sighed and chose to take action, confronting the enemy in the starry sky using the Emperor's Weapon.

The Supreme on the Taiyuan Ancient Star also made a move, directly abducting the Dao Palace's leader, searching his soul until he perished. Afterwards, the terrifying expert destroyed the Dao Palace and joined the battlefield.

As for you, due to the revival charm, you entered a countdown to revival.

When you revived, the great battle had already ended. The Dao Emperor's Weapon, as you remembered, had been sealed and banished, while the terrifying expert who had come with the Emperor's Weapon, as well as the Supreme on the Taiyuan Ancient Star, had disappeared without a trace.

Upon your revival, you gazed at the destroyed Dao Palace, feeling complex emotions, and could only sigh before leaving the area.

"The Dao Palace's Saint is truly admirable. Perhaps, in the simulations, the method of dealing with Ruolan turned out to be the best. Nevertheless, the Dao Palace has still been destroyed, and that is an outcome that cannot be changed for now," you remarked, reflecting on the content of the simulated text.

"However, it's been decades, and that self-proclaimed expert from the second generation chat group hasn't appeared yet. Could it be that he has no intention of targeting me?"

You thought of the Supreme from the second-generation chat group once again, furrowing your brow.

Ruolan had died, and the Supreme Artifact had flown back to him; he was undoubtedly aware of the situation. However, decades had passed without his appearance, which seemed peculiar.

"Is he apprehensive about the Dao Palace's Emperor's Weapon? That's a possibility. As an imminent Supreme on the verge of death, he lacks the strength to confront the Emperor's Weapon directly. It's possible that he can't even stop it in mid-air. In other words, his current state is weaker than the Supreme hidden on the Taiyuan Ancient Star."

You quickly thought of a reason, your eyes brightening.

"Of course, the main reason is likely because, in this life simulation, he can't communicate with the other time travelers in the second-generation chat group. Otherwise, with his cunning and strength, he would undoubtedly have noticed my rapid advancement. The real powerhouses in the second-generation chat group wouldn't sit idly by; they would do everything in their power to eliminate me."

"When that time comes, all the life essences, various trump cards, and everything would probably be handed over to the elderly Supreme. He would then come after me."

Thinking up to this point, you couldn't help but click your tongue in exasperation.

You couldn't deal with these native forces. You could only hide from them. However, these interdimensional forces, especially the time travelers in the second-generation chat group, were like hedgehogs, too troublesome to handle.

"The best solution is to reduce their wariness of me," you mused to yourself.

Rubbing your chin, you contemplated how to achieve this.

"Don't be too naive. The second-generation chat group was created by that guy, and with his cunning and power, he surely left something behind to monitor ordinary members of the group. Once I enslave Ruolan, it will definitely be detected."

Alpha's cold voice suddenly sounded, interrupting your thoughts.

"Are you suggesting that controlling or suppressing Ruolan through my own strength or her detection will not work, and the issue will be exposed? Only by refreshing and obtaining a control-type talent of Gold or higher can we solve the problem?"

You furrowed your brow, seeking clarification.

"Exactly. That guy wouldn't be so bored as to monitor the actions of group members all the time. Besides, if he did, he would surely be disliked by those who are just beneath him. After all, if you dare to monitor their every move today under the guise of ensuring the safety of group members, who's to say you won't turn your attention to me later?"

Alpha nodded in agreement.

"Human nature, I suppose."

"So, if you want to obtain information from the second-generation chat group, you'll need a Rainbow-tier or higher talent in mind control to safely control Ruolan. In that case, it would be beneficial for both you and me."

Pause. Alpha continued.

"Rainbow-tier."

Wang Ping's face twitched involuntarily.

He hadn't refreshed a Rainbow-tier talent so far, and he had only a few Gold-tier talents. Asking him to refresh a Rainbow-tier talent, let alone a specific one for mind control, had an extremely low probability. It would take incredible luck to achieve.

"Without a Rainbow-tier talent, your actions could backfire if you proceed on your own. Currently, at most, you're feared by the second-generation chat group's time travelers in this world, who might want to eliminate you. If you draw the attention of a traitor, you'll be in great danger."

Alpha's cold voice issued a warning.

Wang Ping remained silent in response.

Even Alpha, who usually played it safe, was giving him a warning. This indicated that the senior time traveler who had destroyed the second-generation chat group was likely even more powerful than Wang Ping had imagined.

"I'm curious, what's his name, and what level was he at before he destroyed the second-generation chat group?" Wang Ping inquired.

"His current name is Dao Yi, and in terms of strength... he casually wiped out ten major universes."

Alpha paused for a moment, offering a conservative response.

"Er..."

Wang Ping fell silent.

Well, maybe he shouldn't have asked.

Casually wiping out ten major universes was incredibly overpowered.

"He's indeed a freak. However, apart from the time simulations, I've only been in this world for about three years. In three years, I've already advanced to the God Sovereign Ninth Realm. In the future, I might not necessarily be weaker than him. So, there's no need to fear him."

Wang Ping exhaled confidently.

"Having confidence is a good thing," Alpha remarked before going silent.

Wang Ping shook his head in response, choosing not to dwell on it further, and continued to focus on the information gathering.

"Next, you continue to hide and cultivate on the Taiyuan Ancient Star. Thanks to some residual Saint blood, your cultivation speed isn't slow, but you're determined to perfect each realm and eliminate any hidden dangers."

"Time flies, and a hundred years have passed. Your cultivation has once again improved, reaching the peak of the God Sovereign Ninth Realm."

"Five hundred years have passed, and you've used up all your resources, successfully breaking through to the God Sovereign Perfect Realm."

"After reaching the God Sovereign Perfect Realm, you choose to leave seclusion and travel the world. During your journey, you unexpectedly hear about Ye Chen."

"It turns out that over five hundred years ago, Ye Chen ascended to the Taiyuan Ancient Star and joined the Purple Cloud Sacred Grounds. However, for some reason, he offended a descendant of a major figure from the Central Ancient Star Domain and was imprisoned in the Sacred Grounds' dungeon."

"Currently, the younger generation on the Taiyuan Ancient Star is mocking Ye Chen for his arrogance. An outsider from the lower realms, who knows where he came from, dares to defy the descendant of a major figure. It's like he's seeking death."

"You furrow your brow, inquire about the situation, and understand the reasons behind it. After joining the Purple Cloud Sacred Grounds, Ye Chen displayed remarkable talent in cultivation, gaining the attention of the Sacred Grounds. Moreover, he had a shared experience with the Ninth Saintess of the Purple Cloud Sacred Grounds, leading to mutual affection."

"However, recently, a descendant of a major figure from the Central Ancient Star Domain arrived on the Taiyuan Ancient Star and settled in the Purple Cloud Sacred Grounds. The Sacred Grounds' leader, in an attempt to curry favor with this descendant, offered the Ninth Saintess as a maidservant, hoping to gain his protection."

"This seemed to anger Ye Chen, and he wanted to escape with the Ninth Saintess, planning to be together. However, as soon as they started, the Sacred Grounds' leader sensed their actions."

"Enraged, the Sacred Grounds' leader severely injured Ye Chen and imprisoned him in the Sacred Grounds' dungeon. The Ninth Saintess had her cultivation sealed and was assigned to serve the descendant of the major figure. She seems to have accepted her fate, either to protect Ye Chen or out of fear for his life."

"Having learned the full story, you contemplate your next move."

The simulated text ended here, and Wang Ping's mind was filled with various scenes and insights from his cultivation. His perspective also shifted as he entered a place for gathering information.

"Another branching storyline?" Wang Ping muttered, his lips twitching slightly.

"The development here is quite clichéd. I must say, Ye Chen truly is favored by luck, triggering such an outrageous plot in the Upper Realm. However, the Ninth Saintess of the Purple Cloud Sacred Grounds seems to be quite devoted. Still, this storyline resembling a cuckold situation is rather hard to swallow."

Aside from that, Wang Ping hadn't expected someone from the Central Ancient Star Domain to come all the way to the remote Taiyuan Ancient Star.

Although the Taiyuan Ancient Star was not entirely remote and had its share of Saint Realm experts, it was still relatively distant from the Central Ancient Star Domain. People from the Central Ancient Star Domain wouldn't just come for leisure.

"I wonder what the other party's motives are. If I can obtain a safe way to the Central Ancient Star Domain from him, that would be great."

Wang Ping's eyes sparkled as he mused.

The resources and opportunities on the Taiyuan Ancient Star couldn't compare to those in the Central Ancient Star Domain. If he could make his way to the Central Ancient Star Domain, he might have a chance to join a major power and soar to greater heights.

"No, wait. Ye Chen is my disciple, and I can't let him be bullied like this. Well, I don't have any other plans anyway."

Immediately, Wang Ping started rubbing his chin and muttered to himself.

"But Ye Chen, my obedient disciple, this paid simulation of mine is exceptionally precious. I won't rescue you this time, and I'll also gather information about this descendant of a major figure while I'm at it. After all, in a branching storyline like this, going there is definitely a death sentence."

Pause, and Wang Ping mumbled again.

This was his last paid simulation. He'd have to earn more divine sources in the next one, so he couldn't afford to waste this opportunity. Information could be obtained through free simulations; he couldn't afford to be reckless with his precious paid simulation.

"System, fast forward."

After considering it, Wang Ping spoke up.

"Once you've given it some thought, you decide not to get involved in this messy situation. Instead, you plan to go to the mortal realm to find Black Abyss Supreme's life-bound artifact, the Black Abyss Devil Spear. However, even though you have no intention of getting involved in this mess, sometimes trouble finds you on its own."

"When you arrive in the mortal realm and enter the Primordial Forbidden Area to meet the Black Abyss Devil Spear, you start promising it things. You promise to unseal it, inherit its master's legacy, and achieve the status of a Great Emperor. You also promise to help it seek revenge and annihilate Qingzhu Great Emperor and their lineage."

"Because of your promises and the fact that you exhibit a partial version of the Time and Space Dao Body, the Black Abyss Devil Spear is left stunned. In the end, it chooses to trust you, as long as you can unseal it, it will recognize you as its master."

"Seeing this, you're quite satisfied and use the keys made from two Heavenly Demon Stones to unseal the Black Abyss Devil Spear. Afterward, the Black Abyss Devil Spear recognizes you as its master."

"Upon obtaining the Black Abyss Devil Spear, you're overjoyed and burst into excited laughter. After all, with the Black Abyss Devil Spear as your trump card, you won't have to fear even Saints."

"Well, I never expected that I'd take this route of promising things to the Black Abyss Devil Spear. I thought obtaining the spear would be quite troublesome. I didn't expect it to go so smoothly."

Wang Ping's expression became subtle as he read this part, feeling rather strange about the situation.

He had expected that obtaining the spear would likely involve some difficulties.

However, it went surprisingly smoothly.

With the devil spear as his trump card, many things would become much easier, and that was quite satisfying.

Wang Ping sighed and continued to gaze at the screen.

"Next, you return to the Upper Realm. Shortly after your return, something unexpected happens. It turns out that the descendant from the Central Ancient Star Domain is looking for you."

"As it turns out, this descendant from the Central Ancient Star Domain also seeks the Black Abyss Supreme's life-bound artifact, the Black Abyss Devil Spear. He knows that the Black Abyss Devil Spear is in the Purple Spirit Realm of the Taiyuan Ancient Star due to the calculations of the Heaven's Prophet."

"At the same time, he has a method to determine the spear's location. However, without finding the unsealing key, he had no intention of going to the mortal realm. But when you arrive in the Upper Realm with the Black Abyss Devil Spear, he learns that someone has obtained it and stolen his opportunity."

"So, this guy's goal is also the Black Abyss Devil Spear. However, who is this Heaven's Prophet? Why did he bring the half-step God Sovereign to the Purple Spirit Realm of Taiyuan Ancient Star and manipulate this descendant from the Central Ancient Star Domain to come to the Taiyuan Ancient Star to take the Black Abyss Devil Spear?"

Wang Ping read through the simulation and furrowed his brows.

He had always been wary of this Heaven's Prophet, and now he was even more cautious.

He felt that this individual had a massive conspiracy brewing.

"However, for now, it's nearly impossible for me to figure out who this Heaven's Prophet is, how strong they are, and what their intentions are. I shouldn't think too much about it for the time being, and being wary of them won't help either."

Wang Ping took a deep breath, calming himself.

"Compared to that, dealing with this descendant is the more pressing matter. Now that I, the simulated Wang Ping, have the Black Abyss Devil Spear as my supreme artifact, dealing with this descendant should not be a problem. Even if he's a Saint or has a Saint's protection, he can only escape when facing the Black Abyss Devil Spear."

"In addition, as long as his cultivation hasn't reached the Half-Saint level, even if he also possesses a supreme artifact, I can use my Purple-tier talent, Fate Connection, to protect myself and even force him to take me to the Central Ancient Star Domain."

Wang Ping thought to himself.

As he contemplated this, the simulation continued.

"When this descendant suddenly appears and blocks your way, demanding that you hand over the Black Abyss Devil Spear, you are both surprised and furious. However, you clearly have no intention of handing over the Black Abyss Devil Spear. While you prepare to summon the Black Abyss Devil Spear at any moment, you launch a terrifying attack against him."

"With your current cultivation level, even if you were to face an ordinary Half-Saint, you have the confidence to slay them. Therefore, you are only wary of the potential guardian that this Supreme Descendant might have and not afraid of him personally."

"Faced with your attack, the Supreme Descendant was surprised. However, he sneered and expressed his surprise that there was such a genius like you in the Taiyuan Ancient Star, but it's unfortunate for him that he encountered you."

"Then, this Supreme Descendant directly revealed his Half-Saint cultivation and engaged in a fierce battle with you. You didn't expect this Supreme Descendant to be a Half-Saint, which caused some headaches as your Purple-tier talent, Fate Connection, couldn't be used. Nevertheless, you engaged in an intense battle with him."

"Through your battle with him, you deduced one thing. This Supreme Descendant, although a Half-Saint, is inferior in combat strength compared to Senior Ruolan, the transmigrator. It should be said, far inferior."

"Because this Supreme Descendant didn't cultivate the Emperor's Scripture, although he practiced the Supreme Scripture, it couldn't compare to the Emperor's Scripture. In addition, he hasn't comprehended the power of laws. Although he can't be considered an ordinary Half-Saint, he can only be considered a stronger Half-Saint."

"You used three types of law power in consecutive battles to make this Supreme Descendant cough up blood. This completely caught him off guard, and he looked extremely ugly. He never expected that you, with a God Sovereign-level cultivation, could comprehend three types of laws, including spatial laws."

"This made him feel extremely ashamed. As a genius from the Central Ancient Star Domain, he was being surpassed by you, someone from a remote star system, in terms of comprehension. Furthermore, he was injured by you despite being a level below you in cultivation."

"However, he was well aware that he couldn't possibly be your match on his own. Even if he used secret techniques at the cost of self-harm to win against you, it wouldn't be meaningful."

"Therefore, he directly had his guardian make a move against you. In an instant, a powerful Saint appeared out of nowhere and launched a terrifying attack against you."

"A Saint's attack was absolutely terrifying, something you couldn't withstand or escape from. However, you were prepared. The moment the Saint appeared and attacked you, you summoned the Black Abyss Devil Spear, blocking his attack and injuring him in return."

"In response, the Supreme Descendant snorted coldly and also summoned his Supreme Artifact, handing it over to the Saint."

"Seeing this, you felt somewhat helpless. Every time you possessed a Saint Artifact, Supreme Artifact, or Emperor Artifact, your opponents would have one too, reducing your advantage significantly."

"Facing a Saint who wielded a Supreme Artifact, you clearly had no chance. Therefore, after a brief resistance, you were eventually killed by the Saint wielding a Supreme Artifact."

"However, due to the Red-tier talent, Death Utterance, when the Supreme Descendant happily searched your body, you erupted in a terrifying attack. This triggered the effect of your Purple-tier talent, Endless Blades, directly shattering his physical body. This left him furious and extremely vexed."

"With your complete death, this simulation comes to an end."

As the text-based simulation came to an end, various scenes flashed in Wang Ping's mind. Finally, his consciousness returned to the present moment, and he saw himself standing there, with only his soul remaining, and the infuriated Supreme Descendant along with the stiff-faced old Saint.

"So, I'm dead after all. I guess I celebrated too early earlier. Since the other party knew that I obtained the Black Abyss Devil Spear and dared to come here, it can only mean that they also have a Supreme Artifact; otherwise, it would have been a gift for me."

Wang Ping shook his head when he reached this part and let out a sigh.

Of course, there was also the possibility that the other party believed he couldn't make the Black Abyss Devil Spear recognize them as the master.

However, that possibility was quite slim.

"To reach the Saint level, I must do it quickly. Otherwise, being constantly bullied by Saints doesn't feel good at all."

Wang Ping exhaled lightly, his desire for the Saint realm becoming even stronger.

With his current abilities, he could already defeat a Supreme Descendant with Half-Saint cultivation, which was undeniably impressive.

However, the gap between him and the Saints was still too great.

Being constantly defeated by Saints was somewhat frustrating.

As Wang Ping mumbled to himself, his consciousness suddenly flickered, and he exited the immersive simulation, returning to the real world.

"Ding, reward generation successful. The host can choose one of the following rewards:

1. God Sovereign-level complete cultivation.

2. Red-tier talent: Wood Mystique Body.

3. Blue-tier talent: Pessimist."

"Ugh, this time's rewards are quite meager."

Wang Ping looked at the rewards that had just appeared, and his face twitched slightly.

After such a long time, encountering such meager rewards again was truly hard to accept.

"A God Sovereign-level complete cultivation... I wonder if I should choose it."

Wang Ping stroked his chin, beginning to seriously contemplate.

In the future, he was destined to earn divine sources.

Having a God Sovereign-level complete cultivation would give him a sense of security.

However, increasing his cultivation would also raise the cost of the paid simulation.
