One Trait Draw Per Year Even Simulations Count

”Alright, starting today, Kun Brother will be here repairing his body, and Da Chun will be here repairing his spirit body. Perfect!”

The Star Source was also very helpful for cultivation.

Chen Yi would also cultivate within the Star Source in the future.

However, hoping to rely on the Star Source to break through to the Martial King Realm was not very feasible.

If it were possible, the Shen Family would have had Martial Kings everywhere long ago.

The Qiankun Mirror spoke while soaking in the bath.

”No, little brother, the Star Source is consumable. You’ll slowly discover that the liquid in this pool will disappear.”

”I know. This substance is produced by the convergence of massive flows of the Essence of Heaven and Earth, and it only exists in that specific region of the Starry Domains.

Although we’ve taken all the Star Source this time, new Star Source will regenerate on the Star Source Star after a while.

We can just borrow it from the Shen Family again when the time comes!”The surface of the Qiankun Mirror flickered.

”Not bad, little brother! I like your style! Much better than that overly serious Old Shen! No wonder Cauldron Little Brother took a liking to you! Fine, this big brother will also hang out with you for a while!”

A Great Dao Immortal Artifact does not acknowledge a master.

But by saying this, it essentially confirmed a cooperative relationship.

Thus.

The Qiankun Mirror, the Nine Provinces Cauldron, the Demon Refining Pot, and the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

These four Immortal Artifacts, which had all rendered outstanding service for Chen Yi in the previous four simulations, were now all under Chen Yi’s control in reality.

Every future simulation would now start from such a high baseline.

Leaving the Cauldron Realm, Chen Yi appeared within his own mansion.

It was another dark night.

The county town was silent and still.

Chen Yi had no desire for sleep.

At this moment, he only wanted to quickly begin the fifth simulation!

”Let’s claim the mission rewards first.”

With a thought, four Earth-Grade Spirit Artifacts were retrieved from the system space.

The Blazing Extinction War Spear, the Blazing Extinction War Armor, the Blazing Extinction War Boots, and the Blazing Extinction War Helmet—an Earth-Grade Spirit Artifact set!

”A spear…”

Actually, compared to a sword, Chen Yi preferred a spear.

For mortals and Body Refining Realm martial artists, using a weapon followed the principle that an extra inch in length meant an extra inch of advantage.

But for martial artists who possessed Spiritual Energy, or even True Qi, the length of a weapon wasn’t that important.

Weapons became vessels for executing Martial Arts; even the shortest weapon, if one’s Qi was strong enough, could strike targets a thousand meters away.

Chen Yi liked the spear because the spear was the king of all weapons!

When wielded, it was sweeping and grand, masculine and domineering, fitting his combat style.

The Blazing Extinction set was all colored in dark red with gold accents, resembling flowing magma concealing elongated strips of gold.

All four Spirit Artifacts felt faintly warm to the touch.

Once activated with True Qi, they would instantly erupt with high temperatures, yet they wouldn’t harm their master.

This Spirit Artifact set also had a set effect.

It could temporarily lower the defensive capabilities of the armor, boots, and helmet to greatly increase the destructive power of the war spear, making it comparable to a Heaven-Grade Spirit Artifact, or even a half-step Immortal Artifact!

Furthermore, the war armor, war boots, war helmet, and war spear each had their own unique Spirit Artifact effects.

As Earth-Grade Spirit Artifacts, they could theoretically produce Artifact Spirits.

However, that required the owner to nurture them for a very long time.

”For Earth-Grade Spirit Artifacts to achieve this level, it’s quite good.”

The tangible reward from this simulation also included a Heaven-Grade Qi Refining Art—the ”Heart-Burning Immortality Art”.

Chen Yi flipped through it casually.

”It’s a technique for enhancing True Qi after reaching the Martial King Realm. I can’t use it right now.”

As a Heaven-Grade Qi Refining Art, there weren’t many left in the human world after the severing of legacies, making its value immeasurable.

Putting away the technique, Chen Yi focused his mind. A large number of purple light points appeared before his eyes, among which were a few gold and multicolored ones.

This was the third reward from the mission—an Epic-grade or above premium trait!

Chen Yi reached out and grabbed one randomly.

The draw was complete.

[Irritable Constitution (Purple Epic): You are more easily angered than ordinary people. Your anger threshold is ten times that of a normal person. This trait possesses a hidden effect that will trigger under specific circumstances.]

”Irritable? This doesn’t seem very useful. What’s the use of having a bad temper? Why is it a Purple trait? Is it because of the hidden effect? But it doesn’t say what the effect is.”

Not every Purple trait was useful.

Among the Purple traits Chen Yi had drawn in simulations, there were a few that seemed like filler at first glance.

Although Chen Yi was willing to believe they might shine brilliantly in the future, after four simulations, he hadn’t seen those seemingly useless traits ever blossom.

He guessed they could only be used as material for the slingshot.

”Now I can start the simulation.”

Suddenly, Chen Yi remembered something.

”Oh right, let’s take a look at this…”

The Human Guardians’ Succession Sequence!

Precious information retrieved from the Shen Family’s Dragon-Man tribe outpost.

As Chen Yi opened it, it felt like reading half of human history.

In the ancient mythical era, the great power of heaven and earth still existed, and the human world was at its peak, filled with countless powerful experts.

The human world was renowned far and wide among all races at that time, and it was one of the top-ranked powerful realms within the Void Realm.

The atmosphere in the human world was also very open and inclusive, maintaining many passageways to other worlds to facilitate travel and exchange.

There was even a popular event called the Gathering of All Races, held in the human world, similar to the Starry Conference organized by the Shen Family.

Unfortunately, thirty thousand years ago, the Demon World, another top-ranked powerful realm, and the human world erupted in an unprecedented world war of unprecedented scale.

The two powerful races fought to the death.

One had its legacies severed, fell into decline, and changed from being open and inclusive to conservative, closing all passages to the outside world, becoming an obscure nobody among the myriad races of the Void Realm.

The other fared even worse. Their world was erased, their entire race perished in battle, with only a small number surviving as wanderers, living under the protection of others.

Because of this war, many ancient historical records were destroyed.

Therefore, the identities of the human Guardians from thirty thousand years ago were completely unverifiable.

The period before the war between the two realms was called the Ancient Era.

After that came the Middle Ancient and Recent Ancient eras.

Starting from the Middle Ancient era, the great power of heaven and earth weakened into the Essence of Heaven and Earth, making cultivation more difficult.

The need for external assistance for martial artists to break through to the Martial King Realm also began during this time.

Shen Yang, the Shen Family Founding Ancestor, was the first human Guardian after the Ancient Era.

When he felt his great limit approaching, he passed on the duty of Guardian to a man named Li Wentian.

This person also had a resounding identity—the Founding Ancestor of the Li Imperial Clan, the Qian Gaozu of the Great Qian Empire!

The cause of Li Wentian’s death remains a mystery.

He did not proactively pass on the Guardian position before his death.

Thus, there was a period in the human world without a Guardian.

Until the will of the world selected someone anew.

This person was named Dongfang Xiaoyao.

He was the founder of the Free and Unfettered Holy Land, one of today’s Three Great Holy Lands.

Moreover, he is still alive to this day!

Revered as the Free and Unfettered God!

Why Dongfang Xiaoyao could live for such a long time wasn’t mentioned in this material. The Dragon-Man tribe probably couldn’t find out either.

Although Dongfang Xiaoyao lived long, he didn’t remain the Guardian the entire time.

Later, he passed on the duty of Guardian to a man called ”Great Demon”.

This guy was a Demonic Cultivator who took shortcuts in his cultivation.

Strangely, he could also serve as a Guardian.

The reason wasn’t explained in detail.

Great Demon’s original name is unverifiable.

He didn’t leave behind any significant forces or territories.

After his death, the duty of Guardian was passed to his disciple, Hua Wuyan, a female cultivator who practiced the Witchcraft Dao.

The current human Guardian is precisely this Hua Wuyan.

She has held the position for nearly three thousand years!

”Shen Yang, Li Wentian, Dongfang Xiaoyao, Great Demon, Hua Wuyan…

Only five Guardians in thirty thousand years. Even accounting for vacancies in between, the average tenure per person far exceeds a thousand years.

But isn’t the lifespan of a Martial God only a thousand years?

In the current Void Realm, where the great power of heaven and earth has weakened into the Essence of Heaven and Earth, it’s impossible for cultivators to surpass the Martial God realm.”

Chen Yi’s gaze turned towards the night sky and the distant horizon.

The tumultuous history of the human world was gradually revealing itself to him through the mist.

Want to understand everything?

Want to stop the Dragon-Man tribe invasion?

Want to pursue immortality and greater strength?

What’s so difficult about that?

”Simulator, activate!”
