Chapter 71: Chapter 71 The Apocalypse That Came Half a Year Late

Translator: 549690339

Su Xing’s heart surged with shock and disbelief as he read the message.

The brief two sentences already contained far too much information.

Shadow Protector initially required so many elixirs to accomplish a certain mission, which might be exactly the same as what Su Xing was currently undertaking.

After all, if it were just for enhancing personal strength, there would be no need for over ten thousand elixirs!

Only a large group in urgent need of improving their strength would require such an enormous amount of elixirs.

From the tone of Shadow Protector, it was not hard to deduce that whatever he had intended to do had failed, and the reason for the failure was due to insufficient elixirs, or rather, inadequate strength…

This sounded somewhat strange; after all, if the Shadow Protector merely needed that many elixirs, perhaps he was a spy from one of the Human Race’s major forces, but Su Xing had never heard of such a person.

However, if this was linked with what Shadow Protector had said later, then everything began to make sense.

“At least the world you belong to still exists.”

In just one sentence, astounding information was revealed.

Could it be that Shadow Protector was not even from Blue Star?

Indeed, within the Descending Sect, it seemed that many high-ranking followers originated from other replicas, or more precisely, from other worlds.

Protector Zong, Dragon Protector, and now the Shadow Protector before him…

Following this train of thought, perhaps Shadow Protector had wanted to obtain so many elixirs in order to save his own world?

But in the end, he had still failed, which was why he regretted not using those elixirs sooner?

Su Xing took a deep breath, his face flashing with a trace of excitement. If this was truly the case, then in the upcoming simulation, might he be able to recruit Shadow Protector into his camp and make him a reliable ally?

“It’s worth a try! However, Shadow Protector’s world might have already been destroyed in this simulation, and this destruction probably took place in the eighth year of reality, around the new era of 2031. There’s still enough time!”

Su Xing continued with the simulation.

[After parting with Shadow Protector, the doubts in your heart have been resolved, so you went alone to the Great Xia Military, intending to support them with the remaining eighty thousand Organ Refining Pills.]

[This time, you did not conceal your tracks, because you were prepared. Once you handed over the elixirs, you planned to return directly to Spirit Field Blessed Land and quietly await the end of the world.]

[You got your wish and met with Lu Yuanwu, who looked exhausted, his right arm completely severed, showing signs that his injury had not yet healed.]

[Despite being weary in body and mind, Lu Yuanwu still warmly received you and straightforwardly stated that the thirty thousand Organ Refining Pills you provided last time had been extremely useful, creating at least five thousand Grandmaster Level melee practitioners for the Human Race and significantly easing the difficulties on the frontline.]

[You smiled and nodded, taking out a storage ring and indicating that it contained eighty thousand Essence-Nourishing Pills, explaining their effects. Organ Refining Pills were suitable for physical melee practitioners to consume, enhancing their physique, while Essence-Nourishing Pills were suitable for magical practitioners, increasing their spiritual attributes.]

Lu Yuanwu took the storage ring from your hand, and after a moment of silence, a bitter smile appeared on his face. He said if you had brought out these Essence-Nourishing Pills two years earlier, it would have been better. Now that the Demon-Subduing Pass has been breached, the last defense line of the Human Race has been destroyed in one fell swoop, and the destruction of the real world is only a matter of time. These elixirs could only delay the invasion of the Foreign Race into the real world.

However, even so, Lu Yuanwu still expressed his gratitude to you, handing over a hero medal to you. This medal was meant to be given to you years ago, but as you had been out of contact all these years, Lu Yuanwu had kept it safe on your behalf.

After bidding farewell to Lu Yuanwu, with no further ties left in the simulation, you quietly returned to your hometown, preparing for one last look at your parents.

Your younger sister had died in battle years ago, but fortunately, the pension was enough for the old couple to live on. It’s just that your disappearance over these years had led to many more white hairs on their heads.

You watched them from a distance, ready to go and see Jin Congxue and Yu Yan, but on the way to replace Jin Congxue, your whereabouts had already been discovered by the Descending Sect, who learned about you providing the Essence-Nourishing Pills to the Great Xia Military.

Damned Zong, along with seven or eight Elders, set out to besiege you. Knowing you were no match for them, you hid in the Spirit Field Blessed Land.

In the Spirit Field Blessed Land, you lived a secluded, leisurely life, cultivating for four hours a day and occasionally tending the land and raising chickens with the rest of your time. You had enough food supply, and the Essence-Nourishing Pills you had saved were enough for your cultivation.

By the fifteenth year, you restored your Cultivation Level to the Great Perfection of the Golden Core Stage, knowing that the destruction of the world was not far off. Thus, you attempted to see if you could break through to the Nascent Soul Realm.

Another half year passed, and you felt the spiritual power in your Dantian becoming more and more abundant, the spirit within the Nine Revolution Golden Core growing stronger, a sign that you were about to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm.

You estimated that, at this rate, it might take you another two to three years to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm. This was because of your exceptional talent and solid foundation, which made your progression into the Nascent Soul Realm dozens of times faster than that of an ordinary cultivator.

Just then, the items in the Spirit Field Blessed Land began to collapse, and the space started to shatter. You understood that the world had been destroyed, your mission was complete, and so you waited for death peacefully.

On September 1, 2038 of the New Era, you were torn to pieces by the spatial turbulence. You died!

Ding, the simulation has ended!

After the simulation ended, Su Xing slowly exhaled, scooped up a ladle of water from the Spirit Well and drank it down, his emotions gradually returning to calm.

Without a doubt, Su Xing’s gains from this simulation were immense.

First and foremost, he finally cultivated the Nine Revolution Golden Core, which was a solid step towards the Nascent Soul Stage. If Su Xing wished, he could completely keep the Cultivation Level of the Nascent Soul Stage in the next simulation.

Secondly, through his own efforts, Su Xing had managed to delay the destruction of the real world by a full half a year this simulation!

Originally, the destruction of the world in the simulator was supposed to be in March 2038, but now it had been delayed to September. This half a year’s time was clearly because Su Xing enabled the Human Race to have many more Grandmaster Level powerhouses.

“The timing of providing elixirs in this simulation was still a bit late. If I had enabled the Human Race to have more Grandmaster Level powerhouses before the Demon-Subduing Pass fell, I could have greatly delayed the destruction of the real world!”

“And the destruction of the Demon-Subduing Pass should happen around thirteen years from now, which is early 2037. If I provide elixirs to the Human Race before the fall of Demon-Subduing Pass and train powerful warriors, it might even be possible to hold the pass!”

Su Xing narrowed his eyes, murmuring to himself.

“Besides that, the biggest gain from this simulation is the information about Shadow Protector… I must replace a way to turn Shadow Protector into an ally, which would make my actions in the simulation much easier!”
