Chapter 26

The simulation continued.

【You refused the invitation of Emperor Yao, Emperor Yao didn't mind, and instead gave you a treasure as a congratulatory gift for your successful tribulation crossing.】

【After your true self became a True God, you felt no pressure; you left your second primordial spirit in your hometown to cultivate in seclusion, while your true self began to wander leisurely in the Pangu World.】

【Many places you previously dared not venture into, you now began to explore; after a billion years, you had traversed the Pangu World and also made many friends.】

【You discovered that cultivation was harder than you had anticipated; over this billion years, you did not slack in your cultivation, yet you made no noticeable progress; the fifth level of spatial power remained out of reach, and breaking through to True God showed not a hint of promise. At this point you conceived the idea of going to the Chaos to have a look, and you chose: one, go to the Chaos; two, stay.】

"Stay."

Zhou Yu hurriedly chose to stay; the previous simulation had him die in the Chaos, and that was even with the Son of Fortune having fortune's protection.

If this simulation had a time limit, he might perhaps choose to go out and explore, but without a time limit, there's no need to take risks.

【In the end you still did not choose to go to the Chaos; you returned to your hometown and began to contemplate the Celestial Dao.】

【Time passed slowly; in the blink of an eye three hundred billion years had gone by. Suddenly on this day you sensed a change in your divine body; the power of creation was gestating within your divine body, as if a lotus nurtured in the Chaos were beginning to bloom. You were both startled and delighted, realizing that this was precisely the manifestation required for a breakthrough in the 《Lotus Creation True Scripture》.】

【Without hesitation you chose to absorb Chaos power to begin the breakthrough.】

【You succeeded in the breakthrough and attained True God status.】

【Simulation successful.】

"Successful?"

Zhou Yu was both startled and delighted.

Although, when he succeeded in the tribulation crossing in the simulation he had already anticipated success, for he possessed the talent "Heaven's Dao Rewards Diligence"; as long as he didn't die, repeated progress accumulated, making a breakthrough fundamentally not a problem.

But now that he succeeded, Zhou Yu still felt delighted; this was a success in the simulation set in the Pangu World.

This moment—

Boom!

A vast amount of memory surged forth, and Zhou Yu also temporarily restrained his joy to digest this memory.

If it had been before, Zhou Yu might have needed a long time to digest it before returning to normal, but now his spirit had already transformed compared to before, and his mental strength had reached the fourth level, so this memory was not too hard for him to accept.

"But three hundred billion years is really long." Zhou Yu quickly opened his eyes, feeling a sigh in his heart.

Merely glancing at the text would naturally be a fleeting glance, but to truly quantify it as actual memory, that was indeed an extraordinarily absurd stretch of memory.

At this point, after all the memories from the simulation surged forth, some images also appeared in Zhou Yu's mind.

"What are these?"

Zhou Yu felt surprised in his heart.

He examined these images carefully, and soon understood that they were events that happened to his simulation self after becoming a True God.

After that, "he" basically stayed in closed-door cultivation, only emerging when a Great Tribulation occurred in the Pangu World.

Everything that happened over more than one Chaos Era was condensed into these images, which flashed through Zhou Yu's mind.

"So that's how it is."

Zhou Yu fully understood.

The simulation that took place in the past, after succeeding, would spend a long time in an "idle" state, and then arriving at the present, he thus gained an additional avatar at the True God level.

"The question is, before I initiated this simulation, did such a True God actually exist in the Three Realms?" This question suddenly flashed through Zhou Yu's mind.

But he understood that this was destined to be an unanswerable question, at least for his current self.

Great Summer World, the capital of the Great Summer Dynasty.

Since emerging from seclusion after the last Immortal Fate Assembly, the Summer Emperor has remained outside, observing the state of the world.

In the Summer Emperor's view, his Great Summer Dynasty was still relatively stable at present, but many places had already shown fluctuations in fortune, indicating that some changes had occurred.

"Hmm?"

The Summer Emperor suddenly looked toward the front.

"What's happening in the direction of the East Sea?" the Summer Emperor frowned slightly; the commotion was not small, barely reaching the threshold of a Heavenly Deity True Immortal.

The Summer Emperor waved his hand, and an image immediately appeared before him.

The image showed the vast plain where the Zhou Clan of the East Sea Commandery resided; at this moment, boundless heavenly and earthly power was converging and erupting, followed immediately by a Heavenly Immortal being annihilated into nothing by this terrifying force.

"Is this a formation?" the Summer Emperor's face also showed surprise.

This formation could actually draw upon the heavenly and earthly power of the entire East Sea Commandery; if controlled by a Heavenly Immortal, its power would definitely reach the level of a Heavenly Deity True Immortal, but the controller is a mere loose immortal, so its power falls short.

"However, this loose immortal's cultivation should also be quite high; given his mana, for this formation to have reached this point is already formidable." The Summer Emperor gazed at Zhou Yu's figure in the image, lost in thought.

Who helped this loose immortal set up this great formation?

"Your Majesty, the Qingmu Clan of East Sea Commandery has sent urgent intelligence." At this moment, the appearance of Prince Qi appeared on the Summer Mang Hall.

Many nobles of the Great Summer Dynasty are absolutely loyal to the Summer Emperor, such as the Qingmu Clan of East Sea Commandery.

"Oh?"

The Summer Emperor looked at the intelligence in his hand, and he quickly discovered the problem.

"Qian Yu Immortal?" the Summer Emperor looked at Prince Qi and asked, "That name sounds somewhat familiar."

"Your Majesty, he is Ji Ning's master." Prince Qi explained:

"Qian Yu Immortal possesses a second primordial spirit; his true self remains in East Sea Commandery, while his second primordial spirit somehow went to the Heibai Xuegong in Antei Commandery and has remained there for a long time."

"Actually Ji Ning's master?" the Summer Emperor felt somewhat surprised; Ji Ning, after all, was first in this Immortal Fate Assembly, and after the Assembly he went missing, and the Summer Emperor had always paid considerable attention to Ji Ning.

"Back then, the Mysterious Mechanism Heavenly Immortal of the Shao Yan Clan was wiped out in Antei Commandery; it seems this also relates to Qian Yu Immortal." At this moment the Summer Emperor felt somewhat enlightened.

Whether it was the death of the Mysterious Mechanism Heavenly Immortal or this great formation in the East Sea Commandery, behind both lies the shadow of a Heavenly Deity True Immortal; yet how could such True Immortals suddenly come in numbers to the Great Summer World?

Now it appears that everything is related to this "Qian Yu Immortal."

In the Summer Emperor's view, there should be a Heavenly Deity True Immortal standing behind Qian Yu Immortal.

Perhaps Ji Ning was secretly taken away at the beginning, also due to the forces behind him.

"What was the identity of the Celestial Immortal that was destroyed?" the Summer Emperor asked again.

"Your Majesty, that is the Zhu Mu Celestial Immortal, a fairly renowned Celestial Immortal; he belongs to the Blood Cloud Tower, has appeared in many great worlds, and has killed more than one Celestial Immortal." Prince Qi immediately gave the Zhu Mu Celestial Immortal's identity information.

"A Wujian Gate Celestial Immortal?" the Summer Emperor smiled.

He naturally knew that the Blood Cloud Tower was created by the Wujian Gate.

"It seems he is at least hostile to the Wujian Gate. Prince Qi, go see this Qian Yu Immortal immediately," the Summer Emperor said at once.

The unknown Heavenly True Immortal killed the Xuanji Celestial Immortal out of personal grievance; moreover, the Shao Yan Clan is nominally his subject, but their current stance remains uncertain.

Conversely, Zhou Yu killed the Zhu Mu Celestial Immortal, which means he has already formed a great enmity with the Wujian Gate; behind it may even be a certain Heavenly True Immortal, which is clearly very worth courting.
