Chapter 84 Seizing the Opportunity

"System, I want a free simulation."
Wang Ping said in his heart.
"Life simulator activated. The host has eight free simulations left."
The system's voice sounded, the screen appeared, and text emerged.
[On the first day, you chose to go down the mountain and came to the Ye family in Baimu Village. You found Ye Chen and traded for the ring on Ye Chen's hand. The Ye family was ecstatic that they could exchange these secret books and many spiritual stones for a ring. They thought they had made a fortune and believed that the Ye family would prosper from now on and was expected to become a big family in Daxia.]
[After you got the ring, you started to use your soul power to explore. Then, you found the old grandfather with the floating soul body. He sighed. He didn't expect that a powerful cultivator like you would appear in the Black Turtle Continent today, nor did he expect that he would fall into your hands and try to cooperate with you. ]
[He hopes you can help him find some precious medicine that can help restore his soul power, and he will give you a generous reward. ]
[After pondering this, you asked the old man what his cultivation level was at its peak and why he ended up in this state. The old man told you the whole story.]
[It turns out that he is also a native cultivator of the Black Turtle Continent. He was also a great man two thousand years ago. After reaching the Spiritual Sea Realm, he began to seek a way to go out to sea. He went out to sea with a friend, who died in the sea, and he survived by chance with a spiritual weapon and retreated back to the Black Turtle Continent.]
[After recovering from his injuries, he began to seek other ways to go out to sea, not wanting to be trapped to death in the Black Turtle Continent. In the end, he accidentally discovered a stone tablet formation in the Ziyang Mountains, and used it to teleport away from the Black Turtle Continent and arrived at the Falling Star Islands.]
[You listened to the old man's words and wondered why it was the Falling Star Islands when it was clearly the Seven Star Islands. Finally, you thought of the old man who lived two thousand years ago and guessed that the Seven Star Islands might not have been called the Seven Star Islands before, but was changed to the Seven Star Islands after the Seven Star Palace appeared.]
[The old man continued to explain that he had been wandering in the Falling Star Islands for some time, and after reaching the Soul Condensation Realm, he headed to the Eastern Wasteland.]
[Finally, he made a name for himself in the Eastern Wasteland and became a powerful Xuandan realm cultivator. However, in his second life, he was targeted by a powerful person from a large force. That person called him the 'descendant of sinful blood' and attacked him, killing him.]
[If he had not had enough opportunities, he would have died long ago. After escaping by chance, he realized that the East Wasteland was too dangerous, so he chose to return to the Black Turtle Continent to sleep. The reason he was able to survive for so long was because this ring was a treasure that could nourish the soul, otherwise his soul would have dissipated between heaven and earth long ago.]
[After listening to the old man's description, your heart sank. You knew very well that the ancient beasts in the deep sea called the people on the Black Turtle Continent the descendants of sinners, and you had also analyzed that there would be such names among the human race. Originally, you had the memory of the 'Seven Star Islands', which made you feel a little relieved, but you still couldn't avoid it.]
[The monks in the Eastern Wasteland are more powerful and know more ancient secrets, including the matter of the "descendants of sinful blood". For this reason, they are like the ancient beast in the deep sea, and they hate it very much and will kill it without hesitation.]
[You ask the old man why the outside world monks are so hostile to the people of Black Turtle Continent, and why they call us "descendants of sinful blood."]
[The old man shook his head, indicating that he didn't know. He had been thinking about this question for years, but he still couldn't figure it out. This was probably a forgotten historical story, and only the great figures of the great sects knew about it.]
[You feel sad and uneasy. You feel that if you want to go to the East Desert in the future, you must think carefully. Otherwise, it will be very dangerous and you will die if you are not careful.]
[Finally, you curiously asked the old man in the ring why you told him the truth. Aren’t you afraid that he would kill people after knowing the information? ]
【The old man with the ring shook his head, indicating that he had no choice. The two sides were not capable of an equal dialogue from the beginning, so it was better to tell the truth and let fate decide life and death, so as to avoid being tortured if he did not cooperate. At the same time, he had been holding back these words in his heart for too many years, and he wanted to vent them, but no one had been qualified to listen to his detailed words before.】
[You admire the old man's carefree attitude and say you won't hurt him. At the same time, you say you want to worship the old man as your teacher, hoping he can teach you how to practice. You are very tempted by this walking encyclopedia and don't want to miss the opportunity.]
[The old man was very surprised by your request to become his disciple, and finally agreed. Originally, he wanted to wait until Ye Chen's soul became more solid before letting him become his disciple. However, now it seems that there is a more suitable candidate.]
[After you became the apprentice of the old man in the ring, you also learned his real name, Jiang Huai. You were somewhat moved when you heard this name. Because this name is indeed a famous person in the history of the Black Turtle Continent. His swordsmanship shocked the entire continent and he was called the Wind-Slashing Swordsman. In terms of swordsmanship, in his time, no one in the world could match him.]
[In the following days, Jiang Huai began to teach you how to practice. He was deeply shocked by your age and the level of understanding of the sword, and felt that you were a rare genius in the world, and your future achievements would likely surpass his. You felt embarrassed about this. Your situation was very special. To outsiders, you seemed to be gifted, but in fact, your talent was false, and you might not be able to reach that level in the future.]
[In the blink of an eye, three years have passed, and you have successfully practiced the secrets and martial arts of the old man in the ring. The martial arts he practiced were only earth-level martial arts, not stronger than the Red Flame Technique. Therefore, you did not choose to practice. In this regard, you were also deeply puzzled at the beginning, why Jiang Huai, a powerful person in the Xuandan realm, only practiced the earth-level top-grade martial arts. ]
[Jiang Huai was somewhat amused. It was not easy for a casual cultivator to obtain a heavenly-level technique. Only those powerful forces were qualified to possess heavenly-level techniques. In comparison, although heavenly-level martial arts were also difficult to obtain , as a Xuandan realm expert, he still got one.]

" Even a Xuandan realm expert doesn't have a heavenly level technique? This is really surprising."
Wang Ping was very surprised when he looked at the simulation content.
Afterwards, he remembered the heavenly-level martial arts technique that appeared in the Seven Star Secret Realm.
That heavenly-level technique was destroyed... What a pity.
If it had not been destroyed, the entire Seven Star Islands might have been in chaos, and might even have attracted powerful forces from other places to come and fight for it.
"It seems that it is unrealistic to switch to a more powerful technique in a short period of time. Therefore, it is better to practice the Red Flame Technique honestly and see if you can cultivate the Red Flame Spirit Fire. If you cultivate the Red Flame Spirit Fire, you can continue to use it when you switch to a more powerful technique in the future."
Wang Ping shook his head and continued to look at the screen, as the words continued to appear.
[Three years have passed. Although your cultivation has not changed much, your sword power has broken through to 70%. In addition, you have learned the new heaven-level martial arts, Sunset Sword Art, and some secret techniques. Your strength has become much stronger.]
[You finally chose to leave the Black Turtle Continent and head for the Seven Star Islands. When activating the stone tablet formation, Jiang Huai felt sad. His physical body was destroyed, and his storage ring was also lost. All the good things on him were gone. Otherwise, it would be no problem to cultivate you to the Soul Condensation Realm in a relatively short period of time.]
[Listening to Jiang Huai's words, you also felt a little regretful, but you didn't care too much. Anyway, the resources on the Seven Star Islands are not few. With Jiang Huai's help, you believe that you can rise quickly. ]
[As the stone tablet formation was activated, you came to a cave on a remote . You left here and headed to the Seven Star Islands.]
[After arriving at the Seven Star Islands, you are thinking about whether to continue to join the Seven Star Palace. Jiang Huai thinks that it is best not to join the Seven Star Palace. Because his soul power is very weak now, he cannot hide himself well. If he encounters a very powerful Yunling Realm expert or a Half-Step Xuandan Realm expert at close range, there is a possibility that he will be discovered.]
[When you heard Jiang Huai's words, you also felt that they made sense, and did not choose to join the Seven Stars Palace.]
[Next, you will start living on the Seven Star Islands. With Jiang Huai's guidance, you can safely obtain various resources for cultivation. In addition, Jiang Huai is very familiar with some of the hidden opportunities in the Seven Star Islands, which will allow you to gain a lot.]
[In the blink of an eye, more than 20 years have passed. In just 20 years, your cultivation has advanced directly from the initial stage of the Spiritual Sea Realm to the Great Perfection of the Spiritual Sea Realm, which is much faster than your own cultivation.]
[You are very satisfied with this, and think that it is good to have a ring grandfather, who is like a walking encyclopedia, and it is a great upgrade. ]
[Finally, the Seven Star Secret Realm is opened, and you choose to enter it. After entering the Seven Star Secret Realm, you begin to fight for opportunities. ]
[You and a Spiritual Sea Realm Great Perfection expert discovered a mid-grade spiritual sword at the same time. You directly chopped it apart with force and seized the treasure.]
[You continue to look for opportunities and obtain some precious medicines. Three days later, you hear a huge noise in the distance and choose to go there.]
[Then, you found a sixth-grade fire-type spiritual object, Explosive Flame Grass, in a place that looked like a valley of fire. You were extremely excited, thinking that you could finally break through to the Spirit Embryo Realm.]
[However, you also found that there were too many strong men present, and there were even three strong men in the Spiritual Embryo Realm. You knew that you could not defeat them, so you chose to let Jiang Huai take action.]
[With Jiang Huai's help, your strength soared, and you successfully killed all the strong men present, seized the Explosive Flame Grass, and began to prepare to break through to the Spirit Embryo Realm. ]
[You found a secret place and began to retreat and break through.]
[When you were wholeheartedly trying to break through, Jiang Huai finally revealed his true colors and chose to possess you. Because if he delayed any further, when you entered the Soul Condensation Realm, he would no longer have the possibility of possessing you.]
[You are very angry and ask him why he dares to take over your body. Isn't he afraid of losing his personality? Jiang Huai grinned and said that even if there is a treasure to nourish the soul, the soul cannot live forever in the world and will dissipate sooner or later. He doesn't want to die, even if forcibly taking over your body will give him a completely new personality and make him crazy, as long as he can dominate with his personality. ]
[You angrily called Jiang Huai a madman and began to resist. However, your soul power was still inferior to that of the old fox Jiang Huai, and he took over your body.]
[Your soul merged with Jiang Huai and became a new individual. For this, you died.]
[Because of your death, this simulation ends. ]

"This resurrection talisman is actually unable to revive after being possessed by another body? Or is it only in the special case of soul fusion that it cannot be resurrected? If the soul is destroyed, or if both the body and the soul are destroyed, can it be resurrected?"
Wang Ping looked at the simulation content, thought of the problem with the resurrection talisman, and frowned.
"Forget it. There's no point in analyzing it now. I can only wait and simulate it and experiment slowly later."
"Besides that, is this old guy hiding so deeply?"
Afterwards, Wang Ping's expression became a little gloomy.
Not to mention meeting Jiang Huai and talking to him in real life, even in the life simulator, nothing unusual happened before he was exposed.
This guy is so good at hiding himself.
Obviously, the other party had started planning from the moment he saw him. The reason why he directly revealed everything was to gain his trust and make him have a good first impression of being free and easy.
Maybe I will be on guard in the future, but with this foundation in place, sooner or later I will let my guard down and completely trust the other person.
"Ginger is still old and wise." Wang Ping smiled bitterly: "An old monster who has lived for two thousand years is too deep-minded. He must not be trusted. Whether it is the Seven Star Patriarch Nangong Yun or this old dog Jiang Huai, they are all teaching me a lesson."
"Besides that, I read too many online articles and was influenced by them. I instinctively thought that all old men with rings were good."
Wang Ping murmured again.
"Perhaps, it is also because I am not the son of luck . If I were the son of luck, perhaps the other party would have the idea of ​​training me with all their strength and would not have chosen such an extreme method of possessing my body."
Thinking of this, the corners of Wang Ping's mouth twitched slightly.
The son of destiny can always turn the impossible into possible and change many people and things.
"Well, this Jiang Huai, in the next simulation, we can squeeze out all his value and then kill him."
Wang Ping stood up, walked to the balcony, put his hands behind his back, looked at the setting sun, and made a decision.
It would be fine if there was no conflict of interest with this dangerous guy.
If there is a conflict of interest and you let him go, it would be like keeping a poisonous snake waiting for him to bite you at any time.
In the life simulation, you can kill the person directly after squeezing out all the surplus value to prevent accidents.
But in reality, Wang Ping will not keep him with him.
After all, Wang Ping didn't want the natives of this world to know his secrets, and the risk of exposure must be eliminated.
Even though Cai Yonglong was also a time traveler, Wang Ping had no intention of meeting him until he found a way to prevent him from exposing himself.
That would be too dangerous.
"Next, it's time to go down the mountain."
After Wang Ping calmed down, he flew up, a magic sword appeared under his feet, and he rushed towards the outside of the Sword Spirit Sect mountain.

The afterglow sets and night falls.
Shiraki Village also became quiet.
After all, a village can never be as lively as the imperial city, and it would be even more lively at night.
At this time, a red light appeared in the sky, quickly came over Baimu Village and stopped.
Wang Ping stood on the flying sword, looking down at the Ye family courtyard below. Looking at the child who was still practicing boxing hard in the courtyard, his eyes flashed slightly, and his spiritual consciousness burst out directly, sweeping across the entire Ye family.
Then, he learned about the general situation of the Ye family.
I also realized that the child who was practicing boxing was Ye Chen.
"You're still practicing boxing so late. You're really working hard."
Wang Ping chuckled, stepped on the flying sword, swooped down, and arrived at a place more than ten meters above the Ye family courtyard.
