One Trait Draw Per Year Even Simulations Count

[The Green Flood Dragon King and his group instinctively retreated a large distance.]

[The Myriad Treasures Child Goddess had left, taking with her the Spiritual Treasures she had just lent to the Green Flood Dragon King and his group.]

[With top-grade Spiritual Treasures in hand, a group of Extreme Terrain Realm cultivators could still trade blows with a Transcendent Realm cultivator.]

[Without those good items, relying only on their own foundations and cultivation, they had to think twice.]

[But Divine Abilities were a mysterious power. If used properly, killing across realms was not impossible.]

[So a Transcendent Realm cultivator could not afford to be careless when facing an Extreme Terrain Realm cultivator.]

[Facing the top-tier powerhouse of Blazing Star, your expression was calm and indifferent, almost as if you wanted to laugh.]

["You're from the Dragon-Man tribe, right?"]

[Demon Sha True Lord let out a sneer, raised his arm covered in black scales, and flapped the fleshy wings on his back.]

["Isn't it obvious?"]

["Obvious, way too obvious..."]

[Hold it in, can't laugh!]

["Stop wasting words and answer my question!"]

[Demon Sha True Lord slapped you from a distance. You immediately felt the surrounding air pressure skyrocket, and a gale as heavy as a mountain rushed toward you, blowing you away like a feather.]

[The Female Celestial Emperor's red belly band deflected part of the force, but the gale came from all directions, so it still sent you flying.]

[You didn't know how many trees you had snapped or how many mountains you had smashed through.]

[You only felt waves of intense pain. The "Wolverine" self-healing ability kept your injuries recovering, but they kept tearing open again under the impact.]

[It was quite agonizing.]

[A black shadow flashed before your eyes, incredibly fast.]

[This wasn't Demon Sha True Lord himself, but a black shadow he had released that looked similar to him.]

[This shadow also had a physical form. It dodged the red belly band, grabbed you by the back of your neck, slammed you to the ground, and dragged you all the way from the distance back to the vicinity of Xuan Nu Town.]

[Throughout the entire process, you tried to resist, but many forces you couldn't comprehend were suppressing and restricting you.]

[You guessed these must be Divine Abilities.]

[Demon Sha True Lord had absolute power superiority over you.]

[If he wanted you dead, your simulation would have ended just now.]

[But he wanted to know why you could attract the Celestial Emperor relics, so he only gave you a show of force.]

[Seeing you stand up again, with your wounds visibly healing at a visible rate, Demon Sha True Lord showed a hint of surprise.]

["Healing so fast... You must have a special constitution, right?"]

[You could clearly see the killing intent in Demon Sha True Lord's eyes.]

[Earlier, he looked at you like an insignificant ant, but now, he was clearly calculating that he had to kill you.]

[The Green Flood Dragon King and the other Extreme Terrain Realm cultivators, upon seeing your miserable state under Demon Sha True Lord's torture, had already started to retreat.]

["Demon Sha True Lord isn't even grabbing the Mysterious Fire Mirror anymore, just to come and snatch this human kid's Jade Slip..."]

["Indeed, the Jade Slip is the most precious item!"]

["Unfortunately, we couldn't get our hands on it earlier. Sigh! What a missed opportunity for a great fortune!"]

[You still answered off-topic. Facing Demon Sha True Lord, who was far stronger than you, your eyes actually revealed a hint of contempt.]

["Dragon-Man tribe, a defeated loser! I advise you to hand over all the treasures you have, and call me 'Grandpa' three times! I might consider sparing your life!"]

[Your words left the onlookers dumbfounded.]

[They looked at you like you were an idiot.]

[Demon Sha True Lord showed no emotional fluctuation at this, merely letting out a cold snort.]

["In that case, I'll just have to kill you, take a little effort to preserve your soul, and then find someone from the Underworld to help extract your memories..."]

[He mentioned the Underworld.]

[You remembered that the Underworld should be part of the Void Realm, managing the souls of all living beings in the Void Realm.]

[But it seemed that wasn't the case.]

[Demon Sha True Lord struck again.]

[He let out a fierce roar, and the black mist swirling around him once again condensed into a massive black shadow, a proportional enlargement of himself.]

[Demon Sha True Lord threw a punch. The impact force, carrying this black shadow, surged toward you.]

[Before the black shadow even arrived, the fist force already made it impossible for you to stand steady.]

[The soil and gravel beneath your feet were all trembling. As the attack grew closer, they began to lift off the ground, flying up at high speed.]

[You didn't dodge or evade. You stomped down hard, driving half your leg into the ground, planting yourself in place like a stake.]

[You took off the red belly band, spinning it in your hand like a shield in front of you, while your entire body hid behind it.]

[Your current posture was like Captain America raising his shield.]

[Demon Sha True Lord's attacks were all deflected by the red belly band.]

[Celestial Emperor relics were just that unreasonable.]

[But your opponent was still stronger.]

[You deflected the black shadow he had released, but his true body circled around from above, bypassing the red belly band, and lunged straight at your back.]

["Human ant! Die!"]

[Demon Sha True Lord's large claw came down, aiming for the back of your head.]

[That strike was enough to crush your head!]

[The watching Green Flood Dragon King, All-Knowing, and the others were ready to disperse.]

[Because they knew the outcome was already decided, or rather, the outcome had never been in doubt from the start.]

[How could a Core Formation Realm cultivator possibly be a match for a Transcendent Realm cultivator?]

[The Female Celestial Emperor's Jade Slip was destined to fall into the hands of the Tiansha Sect.]

[Some were already speculating that the Tiansha Sect, relying on the Female Celestial Emperor's inheritance, would go even further, becoming the sole authority on Blazing Star, or even a massive cross-planet force.]

[However, what happened next shocked everyone!]

[Facing Demon Sha True Lord's fast, vicious attack, accompanied by numerous Divine Abilities suppressing him.]

[In this certain-death situation, your right hand actually rose up.]

[In that brief instant, Demon Sha True Lord was somewhat surprised.]

[He was actually cautious, even though you were two entire major realms below him and couldn't even use Divine Abilities.]

[Yet he still used Divine Abilities to suppress your body, making you unable to move.]

[How did this hand manage to lift?]

[Still, Demon Sha True Lord didn't stop his attack.]

[So what if a hand was raised?]

[Just a death throes struggle.]

[Until, as he drew near, this hand easily severed his arm, then pierced straight through his chest from the front, and came out his back!]

[Thump! Thump! Thump!]

[It was a blood-drenched heart.]

[When it was pulled from Demon Sha True Lord's chest cavity by your right hand, it was still beating powerfully, pumping the remaining blood inside from the vessels.]

[The surroundings fell completely silent.]

[Whether it was the cultivators watching the fight, or those still vying for treasures.]

[Seeing Demon Sha True Lord's heart pulsing in your hand, they were all rendered speechless.]

[But even more terrifying was yet to come.]

[Demon Sha True Lord crashed to the ground, but he did not die.]

["This... how is this possible..."]

[Demon Sha True Lord was enraged from humiliation. Red light flashed in his eyes, and he was clearly about to enter Phase Two.]

[Crack...]

[Your two hands, like opening a pot lid, pried open the top of Demon Sha True Lord's skull and stirred around inside it.]
