Chapter 135: Senior Brother, Help Me

~9 min read 1,655 words

She was left with only a moment to catch her breath before, in the next second, a more violent attack struck at her. The house, which only had half a roof left, was not a good place to maneuver, so Ruan Xing ran out while that unknown enemy had not yet completely blocked her inside.

Without Spiritual Power and with her Divine Sense ineffective, she was at most an ordinary person with relatively high physical fitness.

She could only rely on instinct and perception to defend herself.

Ruan Xing retracted her Divine Sense. There was neither moon nor stars in the gloomy sky; it was pitch black. Her night vision could only make out the obstacles in the ruins, but could not see the enemy.

But her intuition told her that there was more than one enemy.

Judging by the sound, it should be a type of small, gregarious nocturnal creature.

Most of the books in the library of Xianyuan City were stored in her memory, but in the memories she quickly flipped through, not a single book like "Illustrated Guide to Low-Level Monster Beasts" or "Common Habits of Monster Beasts" mentioned these strange creatures.

She tried to use her Sword to counterattack when she was attacked. Fortunately, although she couldn't see, she could feel that she had indeed landed hits.

It was just that things were still looking bad; the sounds coming from all directions were becoming increasingly noisy. She could no longer rely on sound and perception to dodge, and soon more wounds were added to her body.

She seemed to be surrounded.

Finally, when Ruan Xing felt a tearing pain in her soul, she lost consciousness.

Simulation ended.

Ruan Xing, having recovered in reality, took a deep breath. Her face turned somewhat pale, and a trace of cold sweat seeped from her forehead.

The experience of death this time felt very different. When those creatures attacked her, the wounds left on her body were just ordinary skin injuries, but when she finally died, she felt an intense, unbearable pain.

It was as if... she were a small piece of bread being frantically snatched and torn apart by monkeys that had been starving for three days on Qianling Mountain.

This feeling was too strange.

Beside her, Yinfeng, seeing that Ruan Xing had been silent for a long time, stopped scratching at the door and puzzledly rubbed its head against her hand.

Right, before the Simulation, Qintai He had just finished giving her his final instructions and asked her to take care of Yinfeng.

Without thinking about anything else for now, Ruan Xing followed the plot she had experienced in the Simulation, opened the door, and fed Qintai He a load of nonsense, convincing him to go to Xizhou with her to find his blood relatives.

The two people and one wolf successfully left Xianyuan City. Although Qintai He was somewhat suspicious of why no one had stopped them, after a round of "CPU" (brainwashing) from Ruan Xing, he still stepped into the Teleportation Array in a daze.

After passing through two Teleportation Arrays, a female Cultivator in yellow robes, who had been traveling through the air on a Dharma Artifact, stopped in her tracks.

She lowered her eyes, her expression calm yet filled with a hint of doubt, and muttered to herself: "It seems they really are going to Xizhou."

Originally, she had thought Ruan Xing was playing some trick, using Qintai He as an excuse to leave the Xuanbing Sect. She hadn't expected that after following them halfway, Ruan Xing still showed no signs of wanting to part ways with Qintai He.

Could it be that this little girl was really thinking of Qintai He?

Thinking about it carefully, this little girl had been in the Xuanbing Sect for almost a month, and she had indeed been well-behaved and hadn't done anything out of line.

It must be that the Senior Brothers were overthinking it. Forget it; since the girl has gone to Xizhou, with the clan-centric mindset of Xizhou, even a genius would have no chance to stand out, and it would be very difficult for her to obtain the subsequent cultivation methods of the Tongxuan Scripture.

This time can be considered as her doing me a favor, so I'll let her go.

Qinghong Zhenjun stood in place thinking her own thoughts, and only turned back to leave after Qintai He and Ruan Xing had entered the next Teleportation Array, which was already beyond the range of her Divine Sense.

She traveled quickly, but after returning to the Xuanbing Sect, she did not go to find the Sect Master or return to her Yaoguang Peak, but instead headed straight for Tianyan Peak, arriving at the residence of Qingmeng Daojun.

"For this matter, I can only trouble Senior Brother to help me." Qinghong Zhenjun straightened her clothes and composed her expression, nodding slightly.

"The Sect Affairs Hall had already sent word to Nanzhou after the candidates were decided." Qingmeng Daojun shook his head with a bitter smile, "You really know how to cause me trouble. This matter must be kept from the Sect Master for now."

"Yes, I owe Senior Brother a favor."

Qingmeng Daojun smoothed his sleeves and turned to look out the window, where several young disciples were playing and bickering in the distance below.

He said faintly: "No, it is Qingping who owes me a favor."

Because of the experience in the Simulation, Ruan Xing led Qintai He to handle the matters of the Qintai Family with great efficiency. As for the cleanup, she left it to Cang Lin and Qintai He's grandmother to do, while Ruan Xing, as usual, asked Qintai He to guard the array for her.

Qintai He gave her two Dharma Artifacts. The two found a place to undergo the Tribulation, and after Ruan Xing finished setting up the Array Disk, she began the Text Simulation.

Although she could undergo the Tribulation directly now, the Simulation still had one benefit: she could gain more cultivation for free and save a Breaking Boundary Pill.

With this back and forth, wouldn't she earn an extra thousand or so Spirit Stones?

【Currently in Simulation】

Seven years old: You are determined to break through to the Golden Core. You ask Qintai He to guard the array for you. After successfully undergoing the Tribulation with the help of the Dharma Artifact, you successfully form your Core.

Eight years old: You remain in Xizhou, using Qintai He's resources to cultivate with peace of mind.

Thirteen years old: Qintai He begins to participate in clan affairs. For the sake of your subsequent joint cultivation, Qintai He decides to first obtain status within the clan, then find a way to switch cultivation methods or obtain the subsequent parts of the Tongxuan Scripture through other means.

Fourteen years old: One day, while Qintai He is cultivating, he suddenly suffers a Qi deviation. Cang Lin is severely injured by Qintai He while trying to stop him and protect him. Subsequently, the Qintai Family sends people to imprison them. Half a month later, the tragic news arrives that both of them have died, and you are also driven out by the Qintai Family.

Fifteen years old: You inquire everywhere, wanting to obtain the subsequent cultivation methods of the Tongxuan Scripture, but you never find anything.

Eighteen years old: The resources you accumulated and those given to you by Qintai He have been exhausted. To further your cultivation, you can only find ways to earn Spirit Stones or join a Sect or family. You believe that to obtain the subsequent cultivation methods of the Tongxuan Scripture, you still need to return to the Xuanbing Sect, but your original identity would definitely not be trusted upon returning, so you begin to diligently practice the Illusion Technique.

Nineteen years old: While in Xizhou, you exchange refined Pills and talismans for cultivation resources, and at the same time, you practice the Illusion Technique diligently every day. You are very low-key, living in a secluded place, and rarely interact with other Cultivators.

Twenty-five years old: Traces of Demon Cultivators gradually begin to appear in Xizhou, but with the careful precautions of the various major families, the Demon Cultivators do not launch a large-scale attack, and soon there is no more news of them.

Forty years old: You continue to diligently practice the Illusion Technique.

Eighty years old: Your Illusion Technique has improved. You begin to use the Mask Artifact to disguise yourself as others while walking outside, and you attempt to disguise your aura as that of a Demon Cultivator.

One hundred and twenty years old: After many years of your research, you have mastered part of the method for disguising as a Demon Cultivator.

One hundred and seventy years old: Through your efforts, your Illusion Technique has been raised to the third level. Now, you can maintain a single transformation for two to three hours.

One hundred and seventy-one years old: You decide to return to the Central Province to take a look. With your current level of Illusion Technique, you can basically guarantee that you can infiltrate the Xuanbing Sect with a new identity.

One hundred and seventy-two years old: You enter Xianyuan City as an ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivator. However, Xianyuan City is no longer as prosperous as it was a hundred years ago; it is desolate everywhere, with few pedestrians. You feel that something is not right, so you ask a passing Cultivator what has happened to the Xuanbing Sect over the years. The Cultivator only tells you to look toward the sky. You look up and see two massive, gray, hazy islands suspended above Xianyuan City, very close, seemingly only one or two thousand meters high.
