Chapter 352: Chapter 200: The Sorrows of the Spirit Withering Era, The Fallen Genius! (5k)_3
[Hatred...]
[After hearing this word, you fell silent. In the moments before the Five Elements True Master died, you indeed sensed his overwhelming hatred...]
[You knew it wasn't you he hated.]
[But rather he hated the sadness of being born so exceptionally talented and perceptive during an era when Spiritual Energy was depleted...]
[He hated the betrayal by his close friend, True Person Wan Mu, and the tragic fate of becoming a living dead...]
[The breath of the Five Elements True Master slowly faded, and a peerless genius who once dazzled an era thousands of years ago finally died...]
[You didn't have too many negative feelings towards the Five Elements True Master; he was just another sad figure who died under the mighty current of the era.]
[So you collected the body of the Five Elements True Master, preparing to find a geomantically auspicious place to bury him.]
[Afterwards, taking advantage of the fact that the ruins had not yet completely collapsed, you went to the core area of the ancient tomb.]
[You pushed open the bronze stone coffin and found a storage ring inside it...]
[Sweeping your Divine Sense across the core area and confirming there was nothing missed, you quickly left the Five Elements Sect's ruins.]
[After you left the ruins of the Five Elements Sect, it completely crumbled into destruction.]
[Once the ruins' Formation was damaged, the remnants of the Five Elements Sect disappeared into the spatial turbulence, its whereabouts unknown...]
[You rapidly left the Immortal Martial Era Instance. After the fierce battle with the Five Elements True Master, your body was seriously injured, and you needed to calm your mind for recuperation.]
[Thus, for the following three months, you stayed comfortably within the Spirit Field Cave, recovering from your injuries.]
[Taking advantage of this time for recuperation, you also examined the storage ring you obtained from the Five Elements True Master.]
[In the storage ring, there weren't the vast amounts of Spirit Stones you had imagined, but instead, there were many materials and treasures for setting up Formations.]
[Apart from these treasures, you found two very important Jade Slips.]
[One was the Formation methods that the Five Elements Sect had passed down for ten thousand years, the Dao of Arrays...]
[And the Divine Arts improved by the Five Elements True Master himself, the Five Elements Generating Technique!]
[The records in these two Jade Slips were of great benefit to you!]
[The Five Elements Generating Technique could allow the compatible Spiritual Energies to work together, achieving an effect where one plus one is greater than two.]
[Cultivators with a compatible Spiritual Root not only gained increased power when releasing their techniques but also experienced a slight increase in the speed of their cultivation.]
[Moreover, after you learned the basics of the Dao of Arrays, the Five Elements Sect's Dao of Arrays left behind was a huge treasure for you; this Formation manual was profound and mysterious, offering you much to study for a long time...]
Su Xing's expression was a mix of complexity and relief after seeing this.
"Living under the declining era, with Spiritual Energy depleted... Cultivators no longer enjoy the glorious years of the past..."
"Under the trend of this era, the most tragic are those geniuses with shining talents."
"If born during the golden age of cultivation, ascendancy to immortality might have been within reach..."
"But now, they can only turn into a handful of yellow earth..."
Su Xing sighed, feeling a kinship in sorrow for the fallen.
But Su Xing quickly perked up, murmuring to himself:
"However, with a simulation tool like this against the heavens, I will surely have a glimpse of the Immortal Dao..."
"Once I kill that terrifying behemoth, the Three Thousand Worlds will be mine to roam freely!"
A hint of anticipation glimmered in Su Xing's eyes.
"As for the present... This Five Elements Generating Technique and the Dao of Arrays could indeed be quite useful to me; I'll see how much they are priced at after the simulation is over..."
Thinking this, Su Xing turned his gaze toward the simulation panel.
[You buried the Five Elements True Master in a picturesque mountain, experiencing the passing of a forebear True Immortal and the cruelty of the cultivation path.]
[Your state of mind has improved, your determination to seek the Dao has become even more resolute...]
[One day, Demon-Subduing Pass was breached, with the Human Race on the brink of eradication.]
[Months later, a colossal beast descended and swallowed the entire Great Xia Country in one gulp...]
[You were swallowed by the beast into its belly...]
[You did not die immediately.]
[You held on for a long time...]
[You were killed by the spatial turbulence...]
[Your Divine Soul was completely extinguished.]
[You died!]
[Ding, this simulation has ended!]
After the simulation ended, Su Xing let out a long sigh of relief.
"The gains from this simulation are indeed significant!"
"With my current strength, after mastering the Spirit Explosion Technique, I am nearly invincible beneath the Great Emperors..."
"But I need to be cautious of those talents from the Cultivation World's past; if the Five Elements True Master was this difficult to deal with... True Person Wan Mu is likely to be even more terrifying!"
After pausing, Su Xing continued to ponder.
"As for the Five Elements ruins, exploring now still carries some risks..."
"Once I reach the Body Integration Realm, I will go explore the Five Elements ruins; I should be able to easily obtain the Five Elements Generating Technique and the Dao of Arrays..."
Su Xing nodded slightly, then pulled out his notebook to jot down this goal.
Afterwards, Su Xing turned his attention to the list of rewards for this simulation.
