Chapter 71: The Doomsday That Came Half a Year Late
When Su Xing saw this, he was pretty shocked.

The two short sentences already gave away too much information.

The Shadow Protector needed so many pills in the first place because he wanted to accomplish something, and that something might have been exactly what Su Xing was doing right now. After all, if it was just a matter of boosting one's strength, it would be far from needing more than 10,000 pills! Only a large group in dire need of boosting their strength would require so many pills.

From the tone of the Shadow Protector's voice, it was clear that what he was trying to do had already failed. The reason for the failure was that there weren't enough pills, or the strength was insufficient. This sounds a little strange, as if the Shadow Protector just needed so many pills. Perhaps he was a spy from one of the great powers of the human race, but one had never heard of it.

But this would all make sense if it was linked to what the Shadow Protector said later.

‘At the very least, the world that belongs to you still exists.’

A short sentence revealed a shocking piece of information.

Was this Shadow Protector actually not a human belonging to the Blue Star as well?

That's right, in the Advent Sect, it seemed that quite a few of the high-level congregations were people from other dungeons, or from other worlds.

Protector Zong, Protector Dragon, and the Shadow Protector in front of us...

On this train of thought, perhaps the Shadow Protector's previous attempt to obtain so many pills was to save the world that belonged to him?

Only to fail in the end, that's why the Shadow Protector said that it would have been better if he had taken out those pills earlier?

Su Xing took a deep breath. He was excited. If that was really the case, then in the next simulation, Su Xing might be able to get the Shadow Protector on his side and become his reliable ally.
‘Let’s try it!’ This time, the simulation of the Shadow Protector's world might have already been destroyed. The point in time of this destruction should be in the eighth year of the real world, that is, around the year 2031 of the New Era. The time is completely in time!

Su Xing proceeded to simulate.

After saying goodbye to the Shadow Protector, you were able to put your doubts to rest. You went to the Grand Xia military alone, ready to support your remaining 80,000 or so Refining Viscera Pills.
This time, you didn't hide Shadow Trace because you were already prepared. As long as you handed over the pills, you would return to the Spiritual Field Blessed Land and wait for the destruction of the world.

[You met Lu Yuanwu as you'd hoped, and he looked a bit worn out. His right arm had been badly injured and hadn't healed properly.

[Although he was pretty tired, Lu Yuanwu still welcomed you warmly. He told you that the more than 30,000 Refining Viscera Pills you gave him last time had been put to great use. They had created at least 5,000 or more Zongshi-level melee professionals for the Human Race, and they had eased much of the hardship of the war on the front lines.

You nodded with a smile and took out a storage ring, indicating that it contained 80,000 Nourishing Viscera Pills. You then explained the role of the Nourishing Viscera Pills. The Refining Viscera Pill is suitable for Physical Melee Class Professions to take, and is able to strengthen their physique, whereas the Nourishing Yuan Pill is suitable for Legal Professions to take, and is able to increase their spiritual attributes.

Lu Yuanwu took the storage ring in your hand. After a moment of silence, he said that it would have been better if you had taken out these Nourishing Yuan Dan two years earlier. He also said that now that the Zhen Demon Pass has been broken, the last line of defence for the Human Race has already been destroyed. The last line of defence for the Human Race has already been destroyed, and the destruction of the real world is something that will happen sooner or later. These elixirs will merely be able to slow down the progress of the invasion of the real world by the foreign races.

[But Lu Yuanwu still thanked you, and he gave you a hero medal. This medal was meant to be given to you several years ago, but there's been no news from you in these years, so Lu Yuanwu kept it for you].
[After saying goodbye to Lu Yuanwu, you no longer had any attachments in the simulation, so you quietly went back to your hometown, ready to take one last look at your parents.]

[Your youngest sister was killed in battle several years ago, but luckily the pension was enough for the two old men to live on. The only problem is that you haven't been in touch for all these years, which has left the two old men with many more grey hairs on their heads.]]

You looked at them from afar and prepared to meet Jin Congxue and Yu Yan again, but on your way to look for Jin Congxue, your whereabouts had been discovered by the Advent Sect, who had learned of your supply of the Nourishing Elemental Pill to the Grand Xia military.

Old Dog Zong brought seven or eight elders to surround you. You knew that you were no match for them, so you hid in the Spiritual Field Blessed Land.

[In the Spiritual Field Fortunate Land, you lived a quiet, relaxed life, spending four hours a day cultivating and the rest of the time planting seeds and raising chickens. You had enough food supplies and the Yuan Nourishing Pills you had saved up before were enough for you to cultivate.

In the fifteenth year, your cultivation level was restored to the Jindan Stage. You knew that the world's destruction was not far away, so you tried to see if you could break through to the YuanYing realm.

Another six months go by, and you start to feel that the spiritual energy in your dantian is getting more and more abundant, while the spirituality in that Nine Revolutions Golden Dan is getting stronger and stronger. This is a sign that you are about to break through the YuanYing realm.

[You estimated that it might take you two to three years to break through to the YuanYing realm, which is because of your outstanding talent and solid foundation. This means that breaking through to the YuanYing realm is dozens of times faster than an ordinary cultivator.]

[Just then, the Spiritual Field Blessed Land started to collapse and space began to shatter. You realised that this was the world being destroyed and that your mission had been accomplished, so you waited for death at ease.

[On the 1st of September, 2038 of the New Era, you were strangled into pieces by the spatial turbulence and you died!

[Ding, this simulation is over!]

Once the simulation was over, Su Xing took a deep breath and drank a ladle of well water from the Spirit Well. His emotions slowly returned to normal.

Without a doubt, Su Xing's harvest was tremendous in this simulation.

Firstly, Su Xing finally cultivated the Nine Transformation Jindan, which allowed him to take a solid step towards the Yuanying Stage. As long as he was willing, he could completely bring back the cultivation of the Yuanying Stage in the next simulation.

Secondly, Su Xing's simulation this time had delayed the destruction of the real world for half a year!

The destruction of the world in the simulator was originally scheduled for March 2038, but it's now been pushed back to September. This half-year period was clearly due to Su Xing allowing the human race to produce more clan-level powerhouses.

‘This time, the time for providing the elixir in the simulation was still a bit late. If I'd made the human race have more sect master-level powerhouses before the overthrow of the Zhen Demon Pass, I'd have been able to delay the destruction of the real world even more.’ ‘And the destruction of Zhen Demon Pass is about thirteen years away, which is the start of 2037. If we give the pills before the destruction of Zhen Demon Pass and train strong people for the human race, we might even be able to guard Zhen Demon Pass directly!’

Su Xing narrowed his eyes and muttered, ‘Other than that, the biggest gain in this simulation is the information about the Shadow Guardian. I need to find a way to turn the Shadow Guardian into an ally, so it will be much easier for me to act in the simulation!’
