“Fire Spirit Flower…”
Upon viewing the simulated content, Wang Ping’s eyes lit up involuntarily.
This Fire Spirit Flower was a rare spirit medicine and was extravagantly valuable.
As long as he knew the location of this Fire Spirit Flower, he could harvest it at any time in the future.
[One of the Supreme Elders of Sword Spirit Sect discovered the Fire Spirit Flower deep in the Black Wind Forest. However, as a top-quality treasure medicine in the 4th Tier Elixir, it was naturally guarded by a demon beast, a Fire-patterned Demon Tiger, an 8-tier monster beast whose cultivation was comparable to a human cultivator at the 8th Tier of the Spiritual Origin Realm. The terrifying power of the beast was not something the Elder from the Sword Spirit Sect could handle, hence he divulged the information hoping to invite other strong individuals from the Sword Spirit Sect to jointly deal with the Fire-patterned Demon Tiger.]
[Subsequently, you told the Supreme Elders of the Sword Spirit Sect that whoever could help you retrieve this Fire Spirit Flower, as long as the materials could be provided, you were willing to refine a batch of 4th Tier Elixir for them free of charge. All the Supreme Elders were intrigued by this offer.]
[Next, the powerhouses of Sword Spirit Sect banded together and took you to the Black Wind Forest with intentions of dealing with the Fire-patterned Demon Tiger. Bai Tianhong was also included. At this point, his cultivation had reached the 4th Tier of the Spiritual Origin Realm, making him exceptionally powerful.]
[Upon reaching the deepest part of the Black Wind Forest, the Supreme Elders
of Sword Spirit Sect led the Fire-patterned Demon Tiger away, resulting in
fierce confrontations. The surrounding land within thousands of miles
suffered collateral damage and was leveled to the ground. Taking advantage of
the situation, you harvested the Fire Spirit Flower. Overjoyed, you were ready
to leave.]
[However, an unforeseen variable occurred. A monster beast unexpectedly appeared from afar. Known as the Double-tailed Snake Tiger, a seventh-tier monster beast, it wasn’t as formidable as the Fire-patterned Demon Tiger, but it could still rival human powerhouses at the eighth tier of the Spiritual Origin Realm.]
[Although your cultivation had reached the Half-step Spiritual Realm, and you had practiced Earth-tier Cultivation Skill and Martial Arts, and had comprehended the Sword Spirit, dealing with a Silver Moon Wolf in a weakened state was manageable. However, battling the Double-tailed Snake Tiger at its peak was nothing short of a wild fantasy.]
[In the end, after a brutal battle, the Supreme Elders managed to kill both beastmonsters with great difficulty. In this battle, Bai Tianhong and a Supreme Elder fell, and you were critically injured.]
[Despite the successful extermination of the two formidable beast monsters, no one could muster a sense of joy, as a legendary prodigy of swordsmanship rarely seen in a millennium had fallen, driving everyone to the brink of insanity.]
[After all, if Bai Tianhong hadn’t fallen, they believed that he would have had a definite chance of advancing to the legendary Transcendent Realm, allowing the long absent Transcendent Realm Master to reappear in the world and restoring the glory of the Sword Spirit Sect from a millennium ago.]
[Regrettably, the marvel of an era was gone. However, seeing the grievous state you were in, the Elders could only do their best to stabilize your injuries, keep you alive and leave the Black Wind Forest with you.]
[Bai Tianhong’s demise sent shockwaves across the entire world. The various major powers of the Central Continent breathed a sigh of relief, secretly delighting in the disaster. Bai Tianhong’s existence was like a thorn in the hearts of all power factions. As for you, because you became a burden during the battle, and Bai Tianhong died to protect you, you found it hard to accept, began to decline, indulged in alcohol all day and were constantly plagued by your Heart Demons.]
“This…’
Wang Ping was taken aback by this development.
He had really not anticipated that in this simulation, he would become close friends with Bai Tianhong, who died valiantly in the process of saving him.
“Bai Tianhong is truly admirable.”
Wang Ping gazed at the luminescent screen, murmuring to himself.
“Furthermore, from the currently simulated content, it seems that not everyone in the Sword Spirit Sect is a villain. Perhaps only the Sword Spirit Sect Master knows about the Chi Clan’s affairs. After all, his wife is the daughter of
Li Family’s Ancestor, so the secret would have been only disclosed to him. Even
it the Sect Master used the power ot the Sword Spirit Sect to search tor people, it is estimated that he would not have revealed the secret.”
Wang Ping was reminded of other matters and fell into deep thought.
If that was the case, the number of people he needed to deal with in the future would be much less.
Then, shaking his head, Wang Ping continued to gaze at the luminescent screen, wanting to see the subsequent developments.
As Wang Ping gazed, more text continued to emerge on the screen.
[Feeling depressed, you sought out the people of Chi Village, hoping to check on their condition.]
[Seeing your current state, Chifeng inquired about the cause, which you chose to disclose. Afterwards, Chifeng repeated the words you had spoken before, snapping you back to reality. Indeed, in the Profound World, if one cultivates to the extreme, the possibility of bringing a person back to life is quite high.
With that in mind, you made a vow to reach the peak of the Martial Path and bring Bai Tianhong back to life.]
[You stopped being depressed and began training relentlessly.]
[In the 497th year of the Daya calendar, internal conflicts in Xia country escalated, the imperial forces and vassals suffered heavy losses, and corpses littered the country, making it a living hell. Chu State, which bordered Xia country, wished to send troops to conquer Xia, aiming to annex it.]
[However, Zhao State, which bordered Chu State, did not want Chu State to expand by absorbing Xia country. Hence, it deployed massive forces to the border, making Chu State abandon its plan. Chu State, in turn, deployed troops to the border city to prevent Zhao state from invading suddenly.]
[At the end of 499 in the Daya calendar, your cultivation made another leap, successfully breaking into the Spiritual Origin Realm. In the same year, the royal family of Xia was overthrown, the vassals started a civil war, vying for the throne. Various vassals waged war against one another, making life miserable for the common people.]
[In the 500th year of the Daya calendar, due to the death of Bai Tianhong and the absence of a formidable force that could completely overthrow the war situation, weaker vassals were wiped out, and the stronger vassals’ were relatively balanced. In the end, they all chose to form their own nations. Xia fragmented into five countries, the common people continued to live in poverty, and corpses were scattered everywhere.]
[In the same year, you went down the mountain once again to visit the people of Chi Village. But, you found out that the inhabitants of the Chi Village had mysteriously vanished..]
