Chapter 49: Conflict of Talents
[On the 160th day, you and the Joyous Union Sect Leader and Zhao Ji started a huge battle. No matter how powerful your abilities were, you gradually fell into a disadvantageous position.
[At the critical moment, the previous Sect Leader of Celestial Song Mountain arrived in time and worked together with you to kill the Joyous Union Sect Leader. Zhao Ji, who had lost control, did not regain her memories but became even more violent. The two of you fought to the death.
[In the end, the previous Sect Leader of Celestial Song Mountain sacrificed herself in order to save you and killed Zhao Ji. You successfully survived 2 Peach Blossom Tribulations and comprehended the Supreme Oblivion Dao. Your cultivation reached peak-stage Ascension.]
…
[On the 165th day, you recovered to your best condition and returned to the Tianwu Village. At this time, you only had one last tribulation left to pa.s.s, and that was your Master, Widow Zhang, a mid-stage Mahayana expert.
!!
[You had been contemplating for a long time, but you really couldn’t think of a way to deal with Widow Zhang. In desperation, you could only say that you wanted to break through the gate to the Immortal World.
[Widow Zhang didn’t expect that you would grow so quickly. You had reached peak-stage Ascension in less than half a year. However, when Widow Zhang learned that you wanted to ascend to the Immortal World, she was worried about your safety. She told you about the dangers you would face when you ascended.
[You weren’t afraid at all. In the end, Widow Zhang decided to lend you a hand.]
…
[On the 195th day, a month’s time had quietly pa.s.sed. During this month, Widow Zhang’s room had been covered with dense spider silk, forming a huge silk egg.
[You and Widow Zhang had been cultivating together for a month, and you had successfully reached mid-stage Mahayana. However, because you had absorbed Widow Zhang’s origin essence, her strength had fallen to peak-stage Ascension.
[The silk egg cracked open, and you walked out. Your aura was majestic. Due to the Supreme Oblivion Record, your feelings had completely disappeared.
[Under Widow Zhang’s expectant gaze, you sucked the egg into your mouth and refined it. Your Supreme Oblivion Record took a step closer, and your cultivation reached the peak-stage Mahayana.]
…
[On the 199th day, you adjusted your condition to the peak. With a single movement of your aura, a lightning tribulation covered an area of 10,000 kilometers. The gate to the Immortal World once again appeared in the sky above the Tianwu Village.
[All the villagers were shocked. As the rolling lightning tribulation descended, you smashed the thunder clouds with your palm and charged straight toward the gate to the Immortal World.
[A shadow appeared at the gate to the Immortal World. It was the quasi-Sage clone of the Confucian School, Zhuge Qing.
[Zhuge Qing’s eyes flashed with shock as he didn’t expect that this world within the painting could give birth to a heaven’s favorite like him.
[Still, Zhuge Qing didn’t hold back. Streams of Scholar Qi instantly erupted out, sealing the gate to the Immortal World. After that, he started a huge battle with you.
[The Supreme Oblivion Record has made your skills profound and powerful. As Zhuge Qing was a quasi-Sage of the Confucian School, his techniques were not weak either. This was a battle between Daoism and Confucianism, and both of you went all out. Even if there was a small gap between your realms, it didn’t matter.]
…
[On the 209th day, you and Zhuge Qing had been battling for 10 days and nights. The two of you had destroyed half of the world in the painting, and countless creatures had died tragically.
[In the end, your move missed, and Zhuge Qing sealed your cultivation base. He wanted to suppress you in the Tianwu Village, but you didn’t hesitate at all. At the last moment, you self-detonated your physical body and soul. You and Zhuge Qing’s clone perished together.
[You died.]
[This Cultivation Simulation is over. You can permanently retain a Cultivation Talent and extract it into the real world.]
[The simulation has ended. Simulation Time: 209 days. System Cooldown Time: 209 minutes.]
Zhao Hao stared at the interface in front of him, but his heart couldn’t calm down for a long time.
“How could I have become like this?”
Zhao Hao did not understand. Given his personality, he would never do what the simulator said. However, the truth was right in front of him, and he had to believe it.
“System, I am clearly cultivating The Cla.s.sic of the Way’s Virtue. Why did it become the Supreme Oblivion Record?”
[Ding! Because the Descendant of Daoist Trinity (Red Talent) had a conflict with the Peach Blossom of Fate (Red Talent). That is why there was a mutation. The situation could not be controlled. Please make a careful decision.]
Zhao Hao finally understood. ‘So, it was the conflict between the two Red Talents that caused this mutation.’
“I have already extracted a Red Talent. If I want to extract ‘Peach Blossom of Fate’, can I only replace one of them? Can I keep it until tomorrow?” Zhao Hao asked the system,
[Ding! The talent extracted today cannot be kept until tomorrow. If you want to keep this talent, you can only replace other talents.]
The system’s voice rang in Zhao Hao’s mind once again.
Although he was a little reluctant to part with the Red Talent, Zhao Hao still chose to give up on this Peach Blossom of Fate.
Although beheading a girl could make him stronger—its only attractive part—gradually losing his emotions and eventually turning into a monster without any emotions was something that Zhao Hao could not tolerate.
There was no need for him to do so. He did not want to lose himself in order to become stronger. He could already reach the peak of cultivation in that world with four Red Talents.
He still had six days, anyway.
Zhao Hao was confident that he, who would have 10 Red Talents, would definitely become an invincible existence when the time came.
After calming himself down, Zhao Hao began to think about how to face those women from the other world.
To be honest, even though Zhao Hao had many beautiful women around him in the simulation, and he could easily dual cultivate, that was something that could only happen after his transmigration.
Zhao Hao grew up drinking pure milk and was a pure virgin in the real world. Just looking at the plot in the cultivation simulation made Zhao Hao very angry. There was even a thought that he wanted to transmigrate as soon as possible… to see the thoughts of these women.
Shaking his head, Zhao Hao flipped open The Cla.s.sic of the Way’s Virtue in his mind and found a clear spirit technique. He silently recited it a few times before he suppressed the d.a.m.n restlessness in his heart…
Soon, he closed his eyes and started to cultivate. Since he couldn’t extract the Red Talent today, Zhao Hao planned to cultivate for a whole night to improve his cultivation.
As Zhao Hao cultivated The Cla.s.sic of the Way’s Virtue, a large amount of Spiritual Qi crazily surged into Zhao Hao’s body once again.
At this time, the sky had completely turned dark. The entire Mount Li camp seemed to be exceptionally quiet.
Everyone knew that the mysterious power would be greatly strengthened during the night. Therefore, the paranormals and the army were on high alert, maintaining their strongest combat power at all times.
However, the Qin Mausoleum, which was releasing boundless Ghost Qi, didn’t show any strange signs.
Under the night sky, only the sound of planes landing continuously could be heard in this area. There were also powerful paranormals who flew directly into the central army camp.
What n.o.body knew was that while they were staring at the Qin Mausoleum, the existence in the mausoleum was also staring at them…
