[Ye Chuxue invited you inside to continue the conversation, and you gladly agreed.]
[Just as you walked toward the wooden house not far away, Luo Xiaoyu's terrified voice suddenly sounded behind you.]
"Su Ming! Watch out!"
[While you were still wondering why Luo Xiaoyu was telling you to dodge, a hand suddenly pierced through your chest, gripping your beating heart.]
[You struggled to turn your head and saw a strange smile on Ye Chuxue's face.]
"I have finally waited for you, Su Ming!"
[You died…]
"Damn?"
"Ye Chuxue was also devoured?"
Seeing that he ultimately died at Ye Chuxue's hands, Su Ming felt somewhat surprised.
With her Taiyin Body, why would she be devoured by Bizarre Insects before reaching the Nascent Soul stage?
From what he understood, Bizarre Insects usually only emerged to devour the primordial spirit when someone broke through a major realm.
"Could it be that there is something I overlooked?"
Su Ming could not figure out the reason.
[Ding! Simulation ended. Please select the following rewards.]
[1: Core Formation Great Perfection cultivation from this simulation]
[2: Third-Grade Alchemist cultivation]
[3: All remaining Spirit Stones from this simulation]
[4: All genuine insights from this simulation]
[5: Talent obtained in this simulation: Business Genius!]
[6: Inheritance obtained from the Bronze Divine Hall]
[7: Taixu Sword!]
[Ding! Activate talent: I Want It All?]
"Activate!"
[Ding! Talent activated: I Want It All!]
In an instant, all rewards from the simulation were obtained.
His cultivation surged instantly to Core Formation Great Perfection.
Su Ming inwardly cursed.
He had not yet fully prepared a method to suppress the Bizarre Insects. In the simulation, he had broken through only after reaching the Fallen Immortal Secret Realm.
Sure enough, in the next moment the Bizarre Insect once again lunged toward his primordial spirit.
Su Ming did not dare to be careless and directly mobilized the True Intent of Lightning to strike at it.
SPLASH!
The True Intent of Lightning pierced straight through the Bizarre Insect's body, and its aura vanished once again.
"Hm?"
"Why is it so weak?"
Su Ming sensed the situation that had just occurred with confusion.
At that moment, he clearly felt that the Bizarre Insect was exactly the same as when he broke through Foundation Establishment before.
This was completely different from the scene when he broke through during the simulation.
"Could it be that the cultivation granted by the simulator is infused with pure Spiritual Energy?"
After thinking for a long time, Su Ming could only arrive at this possibility.
Only when breaking through with pure Spiritual Energy would the Bizarre Insect's strength remain unchanged.
Without contaminated Spiritual Energy, the Bizarre Insect could not grow stronger and would remain in the same state as when he reached Foundation Establishment.
Thinking of this, excitement appeared on Su Ming's face.
[Simulation cooldown: 72 hours!]
After breaking through Core Formation, the simulator's cooldown once again increased.
Just as he was considering what to do next, a voice suddenly sounded.
[Ding! Random mission initiated!]
[Mission: Slaughter All disciples at or above the Foundation Establishment realm gathered. within Qingyun Sect!]
[Reward: Simulation attempt ×1]
"System, you truly understand me. This is exactly what I needed!"
Looking at the notification panel before him, the corner of Su Ming's mouth lifted.
He had already done this countless times in simulations. Doing it for the first time in reality now actually made him feel a little excited.
However, before killing those Bizarre Insects, there was something important he had to do first—find Ye Chuxue.
Using his divine sense, Su Ming quickly located Ye Chuxue in the Outer Sect of Qingyun Sect.
In the next moment, he used the Great Void Technique.
A void gate opened behind Su Ming, and another identical void gate appeared inside Ye Chuxue's Cave Dwelling.
Su Ming stepped out of it.
The moment he appeared, Ye Chuxue, who had been cultivating in seclusion, suddenly opened her eyes.
"Who is there?!"
Looking at the man before her, she could not sense any aura from Su Ming and had no idea how he had entered her Cave Dwelling without making a sound.
Su Ming stared at her expressionlessly and spoke coldly.
"Stop talking nonsense. Come with me."
However, Ye Chuxue did not move. She remained vigilant, ready to fight at any moment.
"I advise you to abandon the idea of fighting me. I will give you two choices—come with me, or die."
Su Ming did not have much time to explain things to her.
For Ye Chuxue, who was still in the Qi Refining stage, even if he told her the truth she would not believe it.
Otherwise, the countless Qi Refining cultivators of the Canglan Realm would not treat them as demonic cultivators.
Feeling the faint Pressure emanating from Su Ming, Ye Chuxue felt despair rise in her heart.
She knew she was no match for him. Rather than follow him and be humiliated, she would rather take her own life.
Seeing the thoughts in her eyes, Su Ming seemed to read her mind and sighed.
"I advise you not to think about suicide. I know you possess the Taiyin Body. If you come with me, I will let you see the truth of this world."
Upon hearing the words Taiyin Body, Ye Chuxue's body trembled slightly.
However, she quickly calmed down and began thinking about what Su Ming had said.
See the truth of this world?
She vaguely sensed something strange, but as someone still in the Qi Refining stage she could not understand where that strangeness came from.
"Fine. I will go with you."
In the end, Ye Chuxue decided to follow Su Ming. She could feel that he had no intention of killing her.
"Very good. You made the correct choice."
In the next moment, Su Ming used the Great Void Technique to travel with Ye Chuxue through the Cave Dwellings of every Foundation Establishment cultivator in Qingyun Sect.
At every Cave Dwelling, Su Ming directly killed a Foundation Establishment cultivator with a single sword strike.
Within a single hour, thousands of Foundation Establishment cultivators of Qingyun Sect were slaughtered.
Meanwhile, Ye Chuxue, who had been following Su Ming the entire time, was so shocked that she could not say a word.
She did not understand why he had killed every Foundation Establishment disciple of Qingyun Sect. Was he not afraid of being hunted down by the sect?
Su Ming did not bother explaining. Using the Great Void Technique repeatedly, he brought Ye Chuxue to the Desolate Village.
After arriving there, Ye Chuxue could no longer suppress her curiosity.
"Y-you… why did you kill them?"
Su Ming glanced at her indifferently and tossed some resources he had just taken from the Qingyun Sect disciples toward her.
"You want to know the truth? Hurry and break through to Foundation Establishment. Once you reach Foundation Establishment, you will naturally understand everything."
After saying that, Su Ming left Ye Chuxue's room and returned to his own.
Ye Chuxue remained standing there in confusion, looking at the large amount of cultivation resources in her hands.
"Foundation Establishment?"
"If I reach Foundation Establishment, I will know the truth?"
At that moment, she felt as if she had grasped something, as though a shocking truth was about to surface.
