【With so few Thunder Beasts in existence, even the horn of the weakest among them would be worth a fortune!】
【No—it's a priceless treasure!】
【What's more, they are born at the Immortal Lord level.】
【With a little cultivation, they might even become Immortal Kings.】
【“Now that's what I call an ancient divine beast…”】
【Sun Xiaosheng shot you a sideways glance.】
【“What do you mean by that?”】
【“Uh… you're all impressive in your own ways. Each has their own strengths.”】
【Sun Xiaosheng and the others were in a hurry to get on their way. They did not linger on Purplegold Star, but immediately cast a spell and left the planet's surface.】
【They were all ancient divine beasts, native races of the Real Realm, and were therefore naturally capable of crossing the universe with their physical bodies.】
【However, relying solely on their own abilities was clearly insufficient for long-distance interstellar travel.】
【Sun Xiaosheng and the others had divine treasures to assist them, so you did not need to worry about that.】
【“Boss—I’ll definitely come back for you!”】
【Black Wind’s voice drifted down from the sky.】
【You smiled and waved in that direction.】
【“We’ll meet again…”】
【Year 65, age 91.】
【Extracting trait…】
【Extraction successful!】
【“Stand Proud as a Human” (Golden Legend):
As a human, I am proud!
When you do not use any disguise or abilities belonging to another race, and reveal yourself in your true form, the effects of all traits are enhanced by 200%.
In addition, you gain an innate Human Prestige Aura.
It makes other races feel fear from the depths of their genes, weakening the effects of their divine abilities, divine arts, laws, domains, and so on. The closer they are to you, the greater the weakening.
It makes your fellow humans feel the pressure of a superior being, stimulating the fighting spirit buried deep within their souls and awakening the bloodline of a battle-loving race.
The original skin really is the best!”】
【Adjust traits?】
【Yes/No】
“This trait conflicts with others. Using it means I can’t use disguise traits like ‘Who Am I?’ or ‘Guangzhi, Save Me,’ nor the alien racial talent from ‘Calamity of Myriad Races.’ It also conflicts with any other traits that change my face, race, or the like.”
But doubling the effects of every trait was undeniably tempting.
This was a genuine, noble, independent multiplier!
The seventh simulation had learned from the sixth. Throughout the entire simulation, you had never used your true form. Even when appearing as a human, you had used “Who Am I?” to invent the false identity of Chen Dong.
But Chen Yi felt that this trait was still worth taking.
If you happened to encounter a powerful enemy, and even “Guangzhi, Save Me” had already been used, then it would be time to fight for your life. At that point, whether your true identity was exposed would no longer matter. Staying alive was what mattered most.
【You chose yes.】
【You replaced “Leader’s Aura” with “Stand Proud as a Human.”】
【After representing the Ji family in assisting the Star Ape Clan, your treatment and status within the Ji family rose rapidly.】
【On top of that, the “Guide to the Void Realm” you provided to the Ji family—a book taller than a person—gave them a wealth of reliable material for researching the Void Realm.】
【You were now truly an honored guest of the Ji family.】
【In fact, the treatment they gave you this time was even better than in the previous simulation.】
【You had free access to their cultivation arts and divine techniques.】
【You could use their cultivation resources as you pleased.】
【You could choose any position within the clan.】
【However, you knew that you were ultimately still an outsider, so you did not make excessive demands or ask for everything at once.】
【Instead, you took things slowly and steadily.】
【Ji Baiming loudly insisted on marrying Ji Wuqing to you.】
【It still did not happen this time.】
【Because you had helped the Ji family, Ji Wuqing no longer called you a perverted freak, but she still had no romantic feelings for you. The matter eventually came to nothing.】
【From then on, the place you visited most often was the Ji family’s Ancient Firmament Mountain.】
【You had visited it in the previous simulation as well, and had stayed there for several decades.】
【Ancient Firmament Mountain was where the Ji family’s core cultivators trained. It offered a cultivation environment superior to that of an ordinary first-tier star.】
【In your hands, it could be improved even further.】
【Because you possessed the “Ominous Twilight Years” trait, you used its effects to alter the terrain, then layered another spiritual vein on top of the existing one.】
【Your cultivation efficiency improved even more.】
【Whenever you focused on cultivation, you shed all disguises so that “Stand Proud as a Human” could take effect.】
【Several of your traits enhanced your cultivation speed.】
【For example, “Get Stronger Just by Breathing!”】
【With the effects of your traits doubled, those enhancements naturally became stronger as well.】
【Now that you had the environment, the resources, and no villains disturbing you, you felt that it was time to take advantage of this opportunity to focus on cultivation, digest your past experiences, comprehend the insights you had gained, and step into a higher realm!】
【“The Heaven-Connecting Realm is waving at me!”】
【The incarnations at Huoguang and Lingwei were too far away to communicate with you in real time.】
【However, you estimated that Li Lingyue and the other acquaintances from the Human Realm who had ascended to the Real Realm should have arrived already.】
【They were all exceptionally talented. Even a second-tier star would provide them with enough resources to cultivate for a long time.】
【Even if they chose to travel to other stars, following the instructions you had left with your two incarnations, they would require the travelers to leave information about their destinations so that they could be contacted in the future.】
【These people were all crucial reserve forces.】
【As long as they could survive in the brutal Real Realm, they would eventually become precious combat strength.】
【Year 75, age 101.】
【Cultivation was timeless.】
【Ten years passed in the blink of an eye.】
【“Brother Chen! It’s time to leave!”】
【It was Ji Wuqing, calling to you from the foot of Ancient Firmament Mountain.】
【Ten years had passed, and Ji Wuqing had long since forgotten about the Jiahao incident.】
【The two of you were both permanent members of the Tinder Society stationed at the Ji family’s residence, and your relationship had improved considerably.】
【Some time from now, an important day would arrive.】
【The base was going to test three Chosen Ones, including A-Dou, to see whether any of them was the master of the Haori Ring.】
【The Haori Ring was still in your possession.】
【You had already made a knockoff of it, but you still had to bring out the genuine article for the test, in case there was some problem with the imitation.】
【If one of these Chosen Ones turned out to be the master of the Haori Ring, you would give him the genuine ring, allowing him to possess a powerful means of protecting himself when disaster struck in the future.】
【That would also count as doing your part to aid the Celestial Emperor’s resurrection.】
【In any case, you would still have a knockoff left behind.】
【You had not only made a knockoff of the Haori Ring.】
【You had also made an imitation of the Black Monkey King Sealing Stone that Sun Xiaosheng had given you.】
【You still had not tested what the knockoff version of the Black Monkey King was like.】
【You were afraid that releasing an uncontrollable Immortal King would cause a major disaster for Purplegold Star, which would in turn affect your peaceful cultivation.】
【You could only leave it for later.】
【You and Ji Wuqing arrived at the base as scheduled.】
【You discovered that the entrance was different again this time.】
【It seemed that the entrance and exit changed every time.】
【The Tinder Society was still as cautious as ever.】
【Ten years had passed, and A-Dou had grown into a man. He was full of heroic spirit, broad-shouldered and powerfully built, with muscles covering his body. His voice rang out like a gong, and he brimmed with vigorous vitality.】
A-Dou didn’t like long hair, so he gave himself a crew cut. With that style, he looked a bit like the tough soldiers from your hometown.
y came from. The chests contained supplies, currency, class-change scrolls, skills, talents… and even godhood! The laws of the world were completely rewritten. This became a world where everyone gambled with their fate! Some people, despite having nothing, opened a divine artifact and rose to the top, eventually ruling the world. Others went bankrupt, opened nothing but worthless junk, and leaped from skyscrapers in despair. Lin Ye arrived in this world from another reality, utterly bewildered. “What is going on? Why is everyone a gambling addict?!” “Opening chests? No way. I refuse to gamble. I’ll start with myself!” Until— On his first chest, he obtained a Mythic Talent: Void Incarnation! He could become completely intangible, pass through all things, and reduce everything to nothingness! … On his fiftieth chest, he obtained a Mythic Weapon: Blade of Karma! With a single slash, karma shattered, twisting the universe and overturning the myriad phenomena of creation! … On his ninety-ninth chest, he obtained a Mythic Divine Treasure: Primordial Purple Energy! It could split open the heavens and earth, create all things, and evolve countless worlds with a single thought! Lin Ye: “Now that I think about it… shouldn’t someone have told me that every chest is guaranteed to contain something Mythic?!”
he colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression. At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week? Fine, I take it back—I’ll never call you useless again... —— Much later, after Xu Chuan had accumulated countless emotional abilities, one night, he suddenly found himself inside someone else’s dream. There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...
