Chapter 363 - 142: True King’s Blood! The Cost of Pretense_4
[However, the cultivators present were all experienced and did not give you any chance to break through. The third saint of Hanghai Sacred Land clung to you and engaged you in an intense battle. Although he was not your match, he managed to hold you back.]
[Ji Bingyue and Cai Yonglong were surrounded and attacked by even more people, and their situation was extremely dangerous. Cai Yonglong, in particular, was far weaker than you and was on the verge of falling at any moment.]
[However, just as Cai Yonglong was about to fall, a figure appeared on the battlefield — it was Ye Chen.]
[The appearance of Ye Chen was a pleasant surprise to you and Ji Bingyue. With his fighting strength still at its peak and endless cards up his sleeve, you felt confident in dealing with this group of people.]
[However, the scene that unfolded next left you, Ji Bingyue, and Cai Yonglong utterly astonished and speechless. Ye Chen had grown even stronger during this period and had clearly made significant gains. He had subdued the Earth Fiend Blazing Fire, the 10th-ranked Exotic Fire in the world.]
[The Earth Fiend Blazing Fire was a powerful flame once possessed by the Flaming Fire Emperor. Although Ye Chen’s Earth Fiend Blazing Fire was not as strong as the one previously held by the Flaming Fire Emperor and had yet to be nurtured, it ultimately originated from the same source, making it incredibly formidable and bestowing Ye Chen with a fighting strength far beyond yours.]
[As a result, under your gaze, Ye Chen singlehandedly routed the many powerful cultivators present, even forcefully killing a Holy Child tier character and displaying a peerless demeanor.]
[Seeing this, you sighed in your heart, knowing that Ye Chen had once again surpassed you. However, there was no helping it, as Ye Chen was the Son of Fortune. The Flaming Fire Secret Realm was likely a huge opportunity prepared specifically for him. After all, Ye Chen was walking the path of fire, and the real treasures of this secret realm, left behind by a Fire Attribute Emperor, were bound to be fire-related.]
[You could glean that from the exotic fire Ye Chen obtained. According to your speculation, Ye Chen had probably only acquired a portion of the treasures thus far. The Earth Fiend Blazing Fire was definitely not the most precious item. The inheritance of the Flaming Fire Emperor would be Ye Chen’s greatest opportunity.]
[Once Ye Chen obtained this opportunity, it was estimated that he would outdistance his fellow geniuses, and even you would have trouble catching up. He would then challenge the genius characters of the previous generation, and even those ancient figures would be trampled under his feet.]
[As you felt a sense of loss, the third saint of Hanghai Sacred Land became frightened. He hadn’t expected a formidable person like Cheng Yaojin to suddenly appear, and Ye Chen’s strength exceeded his imagination. It was unthinkable that Ye Chen, who was ranked alongside you as a genius, could become so overwhelmingly powerful like a cheater.]
[So, the third saint of Hanghai Sacred Land wanted to escape. You came to your senses, snorted coldly, and charged towards him once more. With nothing holding you back, you unleashed your full fighting strength. The self-titled cultivation of the third saint of Hanghai Sacred Land was no match for you, and you quickly killed him with a fierce strike.]
[As for Ye Chen, he swept through the powerful cultivators on the scene like an autumn breeze scattering leaves, leaving no one alive.]
[This scene shocked the strong cultivators who arrived occasionally. They were extremely frightened. Although they were covetous of the Blood Treasure Flower and blood pool, they dared not approach for fear of being killed by you.]
“Has it started? Ye Chen is cheating again.”
Wang Ping looked at the simulation content with a subtle expression on his face.
Honestly, the cheat level he activated was nowhere near as great as that of Ye Chen, the Son of Fortune.
Through the Life Simulator, he averted various dangers, while Ye Chen didn’t have to deal with them at all.
Regarding other areas of cheating, he had to painstakingly refresh his talents to barely keep up with Ye Chen’s configuration, and that only happened after he recently refreshed his Red Talent: True Dragon Form enhancement and the Sword Profound Body.
Even so, his overall configuration was still inferior to Ye Chen’s, with his current benchmark being Ji Bingyue.
That’s because Ye Chen’s greatest advantage was not his talent, but his fortune…
Fortune was really critical, as it could transform danger into safety, turn the tide in dire straits, and grant him numerous great opportunities.
Such opportunities were even more important than the talents Wang Ping refreshed.
And simulated Wang Ping obviously didn’t have much fortune.
It could be said that it was already quite good not to be targeted by this world.
“Perhaps only by refreshing a talent above the Red tier can I truly rival or even surpass Ye Chen.”
Wang Ping sighed softly to himself.
Otherwise, he would still be left behind in the simulation once a great opportunity arose.
