Chapter 98: An inexplicable scene, has the Simulator encountered a BUG?
[Five years later, the Divine Martial Continent fell into chaos, and even someone as detached from worldly affairs as you had heard a bit about it.]
[In the year 860, Liang Dahu and Ye Xiaoqing, covered in blood, found you. They wanted to take you away from here.]
[After some inquiries, you learned that the Divine Martial Continent had been invaded several years ago.]
[The experts from various major sects had been resisting on the front lines, but they were no match for the enemy.]
[At this moment, the enemy had fully invaded the Divine Martial Continent.]
[Sects like the Cangyun Sect had become primary targets for the enemy. Staying here would be extremely dangerous.]
[It was only then that you realized Xia Zhishan's farewell earlier must have been because she went to the front lines.]
[Now that the enemy had invaded the Divine Martial Continent, she was likely in grave danger.]
[Thinking of this, you felt a bit sad. After hundreds of years together, you had developed some feelings for this fairy sister who was thousands of years older than you.]
[However, you knew this was not the time to be emotional. Without asking further, you chose to leave the Cangyun Sect with Dahu and Xiaoqing, starting a life on the run.][Years passed in the blink of an eye.]
[During these years, the situation on the Divine Martial Continent worsened, and you, along with Dahu and Xiaoqing, were constantly hiding and fleeing.]
[In the year 880, you were found by a group of enemies, leading to a fierce battle.]
[The three of you fought and won, but each of you was seriously injured.]
[In the year 890, over the past ten years, encounters with the enemy became more frequent.]
[Fortunately, none of you were weaklings anymore. Although you got injured each time, you always managed to escape.]
[In the year 900, you encountered the enemy again.]
[This time, the enemy was even stronger, with dozens of experts at the ninth level of Tribulation Crossing.]
[At this moment, you only had the eighth level of the Mahayana Realm in Immortal Dao cultivation and the first level of the Transcendent Realm in Martial Dao cultivation.]
[However, you practiced the Divine Dao, allowing you to convert spiritual energy and primordial energy. With your killing intent and full combat power, you could match experts at the sixth or seventh level of Tribulation Crossing.]
[But compared to the ninth level of Tribulation Crossing, you were still lacking.]
[As for Liang Dahu and Ye Xiaoqing, they were both stronger than you.]
[After all, during the hundreds of years you spent recovering from injuries, they had been rapidly advancing, while you remained stagnant.]
[Dahu's strength had now reached the seventh level of Semi-Saint in Martial Dao.]
[This corresponded to the seventh level of Tribulation Crossing, and with the stronger combat power of Martial Dao, Dahu could barely fight against experts at the ninth level of Tribulation Crossing.]
[Ye Xiaoqing was similar. Her talent in Immortal Dao was strong, and she was now an expert at the eighth level of Tribulation Crossing. With her exceptional comprehension, she could easily wield various spells and fight above her level.]
[If they didn't care about you and only focused on escaping, they would have had a chance.]
[However, they were people of deep feelings and loyalty, and had no intention of abandoning you.]
[The battle quickly erupted, and you fought against many with few, and the weak against the strong.]
[Before long, even with Dahu and Xiaoqing covering you, you sustained serious injuries.]
[Half a day later, you were captured while severely injured.]
[Dahu and Xiaoqing still wanted to save you, but you knew it was hopeless.]
[You knew there was no way out for you.]
[Looking at the anxious pair, you felt touched and reluctant. Finally, you smiled at them and softly said, "See you in another life!"]
[As soon as you finished speaking, you self-destructed. Due to your special Nascent Soul, the explosion was powerful, taking several experts at the ninth level of Tribulation Crossing with you.]
[You died at the age of 920!]
[This simulation has ended.]
[In this simulation, you can exchange two rewards: Love Saint (Talent) and Divine Dao Cultivation.]
[Love Saint (Talent)]: Costs 100 origin values.
[Divine Dao Cultivation]: Costs 5000 origin values; includes Immortal Dao cultivation (eighth level of the Mahayana Realm) and Martial Dao cultivation (first level of the Transcendent Realm).
Jiang Yifeng saw the words indicating the end of the simulation.
He was still somewhat in shock.
He had thought this simulation would last a long time.
But he hadn't expected the sudden turn of events.
Although this simulation lasted long, there were only two rewards to exchange, making the choice easy.
Of course, this was also because most of the time in this simulation was spent healing, with little actual cultivation.
Jiang Yifeng didn't hesitate and directly exchanged the rewards.
[Ding: Acquired Love Saint (Talent), deducting 100 origin values, remaining origin values.]
[Immortal Dao cultivation successfully upgraded, deducting 5000 origin values, remaining origin values.]
Jiang Yifeng didn't feel much change from the talent upgrade.
But he did feel the difference in his cultivation improvement this time.
No, Jiang Yifeng's pupils slightly widened.
It wasn't just the cultivation improvement; he felt many fragmented images flashing through his mind.
Not long after, Jiang Yifeng's cultivation upgrade was complete.
The fragmented images in his mind also completely disappeared.
But a deep sense of doubt remained buried in Jiang Yifeng's heart.
Unable to figure it out, Jiang Yifeng decided to directly ask the simulator.
After all, this happened when he exchanged for cultivation, and he suspected it might be a bug in the simulator, which could cause him trouble.
"Simulator, what's going on? Why did I see non-existent images and memories in my mind?"
The simulator did not respond.
Jiang Yifeng was persistent, repeatedly asking, even cursing the simulator.
Unfortunately, it was useless.
After a long time, Jiang Yifeng seemed a bit tired and stopped questioning the fragmented images.
However, he kept wondering about the cause of those images in his mind.
"Could it be my own memories?"
"No, that's not right."
Jiang Yifeng shook his head. He was certain his memories were intact and had never been lost.
"Could it be memories from a past life?"
That didn't seem right either. Jiang Yifeng knew his past life was on a blue planet, without the scenes that had just appeared.
Moreover, the key point was that in those images, he seemed to see Dahu and Xiaoqing.
Why did he feel that the people in those images were Dahu and Xiaoqing?
He had only seen their names in the simulation.
Even if it were memories from a past life, it wouldn't coincidentally match the names in the simulation!
After a long time, he stopped thinking about it.
He concluded it must be a bug in the simulator.
This thing wouldn't admit it.
Finally, Jiang Yifeng turned to ask the simulator about the conditions for the next upgrade.
Jiang Yifeng thought that with his cultivation having made another major breakthrough, he might be able to upgrade the simulator again.
This time, the simulator didn't play dead but directly answered his question.
[Ding: To upgrade the simulator to the next version, the host needs to reach the Immortal Realm and have 10 million origin values.]
"I..."
Jiang Yifeng was speechless. This damn thing was not only getting more expensive but also required an absurdly high cultivation level!
