Hua Wuyan and the others thought that Chen Yi had merely refined an ordinary Five Domain Saint Pill. Although its medicinal effects were miraculous and could be considered unparalleled, for a War God, aside from granting an extra twenty years of life on the first consumption, it held no further significance.
Little did they know, Chen Yi had refined a Five Domain Saint Pill +1!
A pill that had gained intelligence and possessed greatly enhanced effects—a super Five Domain Saint Pill!
"Master, are you going to eat me?"
A familiar young girl's voice rang out.
The Five Domain Saint Pill used the pill patterns on its surface to form a cute, doll-like face, fashioned after its master’s likeness, looking at Chen Yi timidly.
Chen Yi extended his right hand, and the Five Domain Saint Pill floated onto his palm.
"Master won't be eating you this time."
"But I am a pill, Master. A pill is refined to be eaten—that’s my purpose."
To eat, or not to eat—he would have to eat it, after all.
But not until the simulation began. He would consume it within the simulated timeline.
That way, every simulation would start with an extra forty years of life!
Plus, he could save one "Tomato Senior User" trait.
Thinking about this, it was quite poignant that this trait, which had created a legendary scene in the novel, was retiring early.
"Pill, now that you have intelligence, you can live your own life... That sounds oddly familiar... Still, Master may need your help someday. When that time comes, don’t be sad or reluctant, because we will meet again eventually."
"Your disciple believes in you, Master!"
"Calling you 'Pill' over and over doesn’t sound nice. I’ll give you a name."
"Great! Great!"
"Your official name is Five Domain Saint Pill, so you shall be called... Xiao Wu!"
"What a wonderful name! Wonderful, Master! Is it the 'Wu' for dance?"
"That ‘Wu’ for dance is a no-go. It’s the 'Wu' from May Day—Labor Day."
"Awesome! Awesome! The 'Wu' from May Day!"
Xiao Wu cheered and leaped joyfully on Chen Yi’s palm.
After the celebration, Chen Yi sent Xiao Wu into the Cauldron Realm, adding her to his splendid collection of companions.
Several months passed swiftly.
Over a year had gone by since Chen Yi’s fifth simulation ended.
During this time, Chen Yi had sent his third sister and Shen Jia to a small city nearby, assigning two Martial Kings from the Shen family to protect them.
Li Shi, Sword Master, and others arrived one after another.
Li Shi dispatched dozens of Martial Kings and Martial Saints, along with thirty thousand elite soldiers.
Sword Master brought the Five Regions’ Eight Pillars—the backbone and elite disciples of the eight major sects—totaling another thirty thousand.
Combined with the Shen family, this force of 120,000 elite human martial artists was fully assembled.
Not long ago, Sword Master visited the Star Domain to verify matters with the Shen family’s upper echelon.
In truth, even the Shen family’s leadership dared not assert the existence of the Ascension Path. They simply chose to believe in Chen Yi, taking the gamble on this.
Since Patriarch Shen had personally acted on it, Sword Master felt the matter was at least not baseless.
Thus, upon returning, he issued invitations to the major sects of the Five Regions, explaining the situation and asking if any wished to join.
To his surprise, everyone was enthusiastic about embarking on the Ascension Path to the True Realm.
Divine Arms Pavilion, Ten-Thousand Methods Sect, Diamond Temple, Elixir Fragrance Valley—apart from the Sword Sect, the seven other top-tier sects all chose to join the campaign.
Each sect sent their supreme experts, with sect leaders personally leading the charge.
So Chen Yi saw many familiar faces, such as Divine Arms Pavilion’s master, Zhuge Zhujin; Ten-Thousand Methods Sect’s master, Wan Sanqian; and Beast Taming Sect’s master, Ouyang Yu.
There was also one familiar figure from the end of the fourth simulation—Tian Xiaofeng, who had bathed with Chen Yi in the Star Source and peered into the women’s pool back when Chen Yi was impersonating Yi Qianjun in the Star Domain.
"Set out!!"
On the vast Golden Sands Beach, only Chen Yi’s voice rang out, full of vigor but sounding somewhat hollow.
Where were the 120,000 martial artists?
Of course, Chen Yi had stuffed them all into the Cauldron Realm.
The Cauldron Realm was packed to the brim. It had already exceeded its limits—if so many people remained inside much longer, they would all suffocate to death.
But that was fine. They didn’t need long.
Chen Yi could never lead 120,000 people on a journey to the edge of the world, traveling all the way to the location of the Ancient Desolate Secret Realm.
Even if Chen Yi flew there alone at full speed, it would take him many years to arrive.
It was too far. From the very beginning, he had no intention of flying there.
Instead, he planned to put everyone into the Cauldron Realm and ask Hua Wuyan to borrow the power of the Earth Spirit to teleport them there directly!
"Senior Hua, we’re ready to depart."
Hua Wuyan stood behind Chen Yi, watching him yell "Set out!" all alone.
"Alright. But what’s the exact location? The northern edge of the North Sea is still very vast."
Chen Yi focused hard to recall the fragmented memories inherited from the simulation.
The memories of events after that were all hazy, but Chen Yi still managed to grasp the key details.
"In that area, there are three small islands arranged in a north-south line. They are completely barren—not even a blade of grass."
"With that description, finding them won’t be difficult."
Hua Wuyan began using her privilege as a Guardian to borrow the power of the Earth Spirit, scouting the specific region of the human realm.
Her perception was relatively rough, like a bird looking down from a height—unlike Chen Yi’s Seven Ultimate Ascension state, where he could see even treasures hidden beneath the earth.
"I’ve found them."
Hua Wuyan placed a hand on Chen Yi’s shoulder.
In utter silence, the two vanished from where they stood.
Chen Yi blinked, and the ground beneath him was no longer golden sand but an endless blue ocean.
On the ocean surface sat three small islands, not far from each other.
Chen Yi quickly opened the Cauldron Realm, releasing the 120,000 people inside. He stationed them on the three islands according to affiliation: the Shen family, Li Shi, and the sects.
Martial kings, Martial Saints, and War Gods who could fly took to the air directly, hovering in formation, awaiting further instructions.
The Great Demon was still impatient.
"Chen Yi! Where is the Ancient Desolate Secret Realm! All I see here is stagnant water!"
The human realm was a world with a single central continent, surrounded entirely by oceans dotted with scattered islands.
The farther from the continent, the fewer signs of life.
Even though the place looked like it had blue skies and white clouds over clear waters, in reality, neither the islands nor the underwater world contained a single living thing.
That was why the Great Demon called the water here "dead water."
Chen Yi looked around.
He was certain this was the place depicted in the fragmented memories—where the human realm alliance would accidentally stumble upon the Ancient Desolate Secret Realm while clashing with alien legions.
"The Ancient Desolate Secret Realm should be a small world like the Star Force Boundless Realm or the Cauldron Realm, isolated from our external world. It requires a special method to open."
Unfortunately, the memories inherited were too fragmented. Chen Yi couldn’t see the specifics of how the human realm alliance had accidentally opened the secret realm.
Shen Yang, now fused with Shen Qingshan, began taking out various materials from his storage ring to set up a formation.
"I’ll lay out a Divine Topography Array. This formation can detect the subtlest spatial fluctuations. If there’s a small world here, it will reveal the clues."
The Great Demon urged him on.
"Hurry up!"
Shen Yang worked with ease, completing a Heaven-grade formation above the sea.
Invisible waves rippled outward from the formation, scanning the spatial information for thousands of miles around.
A moment later, Shen Yang frowned.
“Is this the place, Brother Chen? I don’t see how this stretch of space differs from anywhere else.”
The Great Demon snorted coldly.
“Chen Yi, you’d better not be messing with us! Otherwise, I’ll be the first to show you no mercy!”
Chen Yi ignored the hot-tempered Great Demon and spoke instead to Shen Yang.
“Hand me one set of the materials from that formation just now.”

ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force!

close your eyes and open them again, only to find yourself transmigrated into the role of a villainous male supporting character. Readers familiar with urban wish-fulfillment novels know that it is only through the relentless antics of the villainous male supporting character that the plot between the male and female leads can progress. As the villainous male supporting character, Long Aotian not only has to bully the female lead, harass the second female lead, and flirt with the third female lead, but he also has to go all out to antagonize the male lead. In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"

ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter.
