Cultivation Simulator: Starting From The Empress' Palace

The crowd had no doubt that if they were swept into that sword light, they would be obliterated in an instant.

What kind of formidable thing is this?

”This... this... this is not the Merak Flying Sword!” Chi Ying exclaimed.

The Merak Flying Sword was Zuoqiu Yiren’s famous technique, seen by outsiders as Zuoqiu Yiren’s strongest Divine Technique.

Yet Chi Ying could not feel the aura of the Merak Flying Sword on it.

Even the Venerable White Bone, after being fully enchanted, had his pupils shrink slightly, uncertain of what Divine Technique this was, stirring a sense of fear in his heart.

Meanwhile, Zuoqiu Yiren no longer controlled the sword from afar but grasped the Merak Sword single-handedly, and the sound of its singing soared to the heavens.

Buzz!

A hundred-zhang sword light surged as the Merak Sword transformed directly into a sword beam, slashing towards the two, its momentum seemingly cleaving even the heavens, immensely ferocious.

Swoosh!

In just an instant, it obliterated the hundred-zhang demon beast and the gigantic palm, then continued to enshroud the two.

With a tremendous explosion echoing.

Venerable White Bone and Chi Ying were directly engulfed in the flames.

After the explosion, endless splendid waves rampaged, the terrifying power it unleashed shook even this piece of heaven and earth crazily.

”Capture!”

Zuoqiu Yiren instantly teleported in front of Chen Mo and the others, brandished the Purple Gold Gourd, and with a single utterance, a powerful suction force burst forth, swallowing all the shockwaves rushing towards Chen Mo and the others.

When the blaze dissipated, the explosion site displayed a state of collapse; the area within a hundred li was pitch black, with mountains flattened directly, as if any existence there had been annihilated in that explosion.

Venerable White Bone and Chi Ying were as dead as could be, not even a trace left.

The remaining disciples and evil cultivators, gazing at this scene, couldn’t help but swallow hard, their eyes filled with horror.

Once they came to their senses, seeing that the Spatial Lock had disappeared, the evil cultivators scattered and fled.

”Chase!” Seeing this, the disciples instantly set off in pursuit.

Chen Mo didn’t move; the remaining evil cultivators were just small fry, no threat at all.

He looked at the explosion area and murmured, ”Yiren Sis, is this the Merak Flying Sword?”

Zuoqiu Yiren reverted to her lazy demeanor and shook her head, ”No.”

”Then what’s this move called?”

”Haven’t you already learned it?” Seeing Nangong Xue and others coming over, Zuoqiu Yiren switched to transmission and said.

”I’ve learned it?” Chen Mo was a bit stunned.

”Sword One, hasn’t the Sect Leader taught you?” Zuoqiu Yiren transmitted.

”That sword is Sword One...”

Chen Mo was dumbstruck, seemingly unable to believe that was what Sword One could bring about.

”When someone becomes strong enough, Divine Techniques and Magical Artifacts become unimportant.” These words, Zuoqiu Yiren did not transmit.

Her intention was to tell Chen Mo that when his strength reached this realm, he could use Sword One to achieve such power.

Nangong Xue first glanced at Zuoqiu Yiren, then sneaked a peek at Chen Mo, lightly biting her lip, lost in thought.

Nangong Yue noticed her sister’s psychological change and was delighted.

”Are you guys okay?” Seeing them come over, Chen Mo asked with concern.

The few women shook their heads, and Xiao Jiu said, ”Master, I feel like I’m about to break through.”

This battle greatly benefited Xiao Jiu.

Chen Mo was startled; he knew Xiao Jiu had long been at the Half-Step Golden Core Realm, and breaking through now would mean directly reaching the Golden Core Realm.

By then, she wouldn’t need to use Secret Techniques to maintain a human form and could directly transform.

”Xiao Jiu, congratulations.” Zhao Qianyi and Jiang Ruoqing first offered their congratulations.

Then Nangong Xue and Nangong Yue also smiled and nodded to Xiao Jiu.

However, Xiao Jiu didn’t care for their congratulations, her eyes were on Chen Mo.

”Congratulations.” Chen Mo wanted to raise his hand to rub Xiao Jiu’s head but quickly realized it wasn’t appropriate, so he withdrew his hand and said:

”Let’s go; there should still be evil cultivators in the Spirit Stone Mine.”

...

Afterwards, the events unfolded much like in the simulation.

Not long after they arrived at the Spirit Stone Mine and exterminated all the evil cultivators inside, Long Xiaoyao and Fang Zun hurriedly arrived.

”Is he Long Xiaoyao?!”

For Zhao Qianyi, Jiang Ruoqing, Xiao Jiu, Nangong Yue, and Nangong Xue, it was their first time seeing Long Xiaoyao. Looking at the young man with extraordinary temperament and looks, standing on the Golden Sword in mid-air, the women raised their brows.

It was also Chen Mo’s first time seeing Long Xiaoyao. Regarding this direct disciple who was constantly talked about among the disciples, due to either personal grievances or curiosity, Chen Mo was eager to have a meeting with Long Xiaoyao.

Now it seems, he indeed lives up to his reputation.

Long Xiaoyao also noticed Chen Mo and the others’ gazes, and recognized Chen Mo at a glance from the crowd. However, instead of displaying anger, he smiled at Chen Mo and then bowed to Zuoqiu Yiren, ”Elder Zuoqiu, on the way here, I encountered an evil cultivator of the Divinity Transformation Realm and was delayed in slaying him, hence my late arrival.”

After speaking, he raised his hand slightly, and a long-dead corpse hovered in mid-air.

”It’s the Evil Flower Lord!” A disciple recognized him, then charged at the suspended corpse in mid-air, drew his longsword, and slashed down, shouting angrily, ”Return my sister’s life.”

However, after a slash, it was as if he struck a piece of gold or stone; not only did he make no mark on the Evil Flower Lord’s body, but he was also sent flying.

As a Divinity Transformation Realm expert, even if deceased, the power in his body had not disappeared. The disciple, merely at the Foundation Establishment Realm, couldn’t inflict any damage on even a corpse.

However, this also indicated that Long Xiaoyao hadn’t killed the Evil Flower Lord very long ago. If there had been any delay, the power in the corpse would have dissipated, and the scene just now wouldn’t have occurred.

Of course, there was also the possibility that he had used a Secret Technique to preserve the body well.

But no one paid attention to this detail. After all, who would, after killing an evil cultivator, not vent their frustration on the body or dispose of it otherwise, but instead preserve it using a Secret Technique and keep it in a Space Ornament, to be brought out at such a time?

That doesn’t really make sense.

The Evil Flower Lord had a notorious reputation; he specifically targeted virgins with extremely cruel methods. After seizing their Primordial Yin, he would absorb them to death, and for each dead woman, he drew her in the moment of her death, creating illustrations for the Spring Palace Album, widely circulated among evil cultivators, committing monstrous crimes.

Now that the Evil Flower Lord had died at Long Xiaoyao’s hands, the disciples looked at him with eyes full of admiration. Even the disciple who had just been sent flying knelt and kowtowed to Long Xiaoyao, thanking him for avenging his sister’s blood debt.

For a moment, Long Xiaoyao’s prestige even slightly overshadowed Zuoqiu Yiren, who had killed two Void Realm experts.
