161: Chapter 161 Chu Sheng Displays His Power, New Function of "Many Children, Many Blessings"
Chu Sheng hadn't taken many steps out of Qingshi Town before he stopped again.
After the excitement in his mind passed, he began to review everything.
The fifth simulation, spanning several decades, from Qingshi Town to the Qinglan Sect, from the Fengxian Secret Realm to the Demon Realm, from the Righteous-Demonic War to being devoured by Pride.
Every step was vivid in his mind, playing out like a movie.
He needed to think about where he could optimize.
The Qinglan Sect part was fine; taking in Zhou Wantang, killing Li Chunfeng, and looting the treasury were all done in one go.
The Fengxian Secret Realm was also fine; he snatched the ring from Ye Wuhen and even picked up the phoenix shell.
The Demon Realm part... the problem was in the Demon Realm.
It wasn't Yu Rumeng's problem, but his own.
A monster of Pride's level was unknown to almost everyone in the entire Demon Realm; it was normal that he, a newcomer, didn't know about it.
But the problem was, he had stayed in the Demon Realm for over twenty years, yet he never thought about infiltrating the upper echelons?
Every day was just about his wife, children, and a warm bed; Yu Rumeng's cultivation hadn't increased much, and his intelligence network hadn't been built either.
Chu Sheng shook his head. Next time, he would definitely be careful next time.
He looked down at the ring on his finger; it was pitch black and showed no movement.
The old man must have fallen into a deep sleep, right?
Since the feedback from the simulation could be brought back, the old man's remnant soul should be there too. He just didn't know when he would wake up.
Forget it, he wouldn't think about it anymore. He should handle the things right in front of him first.
Chu Sheng raised his head and looked around.
Outside Qingshi Town was a wilderness, with a few small hills in the distance, and further away was the direction of Jin Xiao City. He suddenly felt his hands itching.
In the simulation, he fought until the sky went dark, but that was cultivation in the simulation.
In reality, he had just obtained the power of the Sea Opening realm and hadn't tried it out yet.
He walked to the side of a river.
He recognized this river; it was called the Qingxi River, flowing past the edge of Qingshi Town and merging into the river stream to the east.
The river surface was several hundred zhang wide, the water wasn't deep, but the current was quite fast.
Chu Sheng stood on the riverbank, took a deep breath, raised his right hand, and condensed it into a giant palm.
He gently pressed down, and the entire Qingxi River stopped flowing.
The water from upstream surged over, blocked by an invisible barrier, piling up higher and higher like a wall of water, while the downstream riverbed was exposed.
"Not bad."
He muttered to himself, "It's not some small ditch; a river several hundred zhang wide, cut off just like that."
He looked at the Liuyun Mountain Range in the distance again.
That was a mountain range; if he used his full strength, he could directly level the main peak.
Qingshi Town?
He looked back at the lights in the town; it would probably only take a few punches and kicks.
Jin Xiao City was larger, but with a little more effort, he could flatten it too.
This feeling, it's fucking great.
No matter how powerful he was in the simulation, it was fake, but his current cultivation was real.
He took a step, and his figure disappeared from where he stood.
When he reappeared, he was already at the gate of his small courtyard.
Xiao Huan was sewing clothes under the lamp.
Hearing the door sound, she looked up and was stunned to see Chu Sheng.
She put down the needle and thread, stood up, and asked, "Why have you returned so late? Have you eaten?"
Chu Sheng looked at her and suddenly smiled.
This girl, she asked if he had eaten every single time.
"Xiao Huan," he said, "do you want to see the horizon?"
Xiao Huan was stunned again, not reacting in time.
Chu Sheng walked over and scooped her up.
But Chu Sheng didn't give her time to react; his figure flickered, and he shot directly into the clouds.
The wind whistled past her ears, and the clouds spread out beneath their feet.
Xiao Huan screamed, then hugged Chu Sheng's neck tightly, her eyes closed shut.
"Open your eyes," Chu Sheng said.
Xiao Huan slowly opened one eye, then the other.
She saw the entire world.
Qingshi Town was beneath her feet, as small as a chessboard, and the lights of Jin Xiao City were like scattered gold, sprinkled on the ground.
"That is the river," Chu Sheng said, pointing to the ribbon-like stream. "Jin Xiao City is not far from the riverbank. Further that way is the Yan Kingdom."
Xiao Huan opened her mouth, unable to say a single word.
In theory, one could fly short distances with Qi by reaching the Essence Gathering Realm, medium distances with the True Firmament realm, and long distances with the True Transformation Realm realm.
But she didn't have that; Chu Sheng struggled even with Qi Induction, and she had never flown before.
She felt as if she were dreaming.
Chu Sheng held her and circled in the sky.
Xiao Huan's voice was very soft, like the humming of a mosquito, "You... what is your cultivation level now?"
Chu Sheng thought for a moment and said, "Sea Opening."
Xiao Huan didn't understand the concept of the Sea Opening realm.
But she knew that the people who used to bully the Young Master might not even be worthy of carrying his shoes now.
Chu Sheng looked down.
He suddenly remembered some things.
Qinglan Sect, Second Elder.
In the simulation, he had killed the Second Elder once, but that was in the simulation.
The Second Elder in reality was still alive and well.
Chu Sheng curled the corner of his mouth. It wasn't a smile, but a cold sneer.
"Xiao Huan," he said, "I'll show you a play."
He raised his left hand, pressed his index and middle fingers together, and pointed towards the ground.
A black thread shot out from his fingertips, as thin as a strand of hair, but as fast as light.
That thread passed through the clouds, through the night sky, and through the protective formation of the Qinglan Sect.
The Second Elder was meditating in his room.
He was quite old, with the cultivation of the second level of the Condensing True Essence realm, and he counted as a figure in the Qinglan Sect.
Over the years, relying on the tributes from his subordinates, he had lived a comfortable life.
Recently, he was still pondering how to squeeze more oil and water from that kid named Chu.
He suddenly felt a pain in his chest.
Looking down, he saw an extra hole in his chest.
The Second Elder widened his eyes, wanting to shout, but no sound could come out of his throat.
The hole was expanding, from the size of a thumb to the size of a fist, then from the size of a fist to the size of a bowl.
He looked down as his body slowly disappeared.
He wanted to call out, to shout, to beg for mercy, but he didn't know who was killing him, or even what he had done wrong.
Chu Sheng withdrew his finger, expressionless.
Xiao Huan huddled in his arms, unable to see anything, but she felt the aura on the Young Master turn cold.
"Alright," Chu Sheng said, "the play is over."
Although Xiao Huan knew that many things had happened to Chu Sheng, some things were not for her to ask about.
She suddenly felt a bit sore in her nose.
How much suffering had the Young Master endured to reach this point today?
Chu Sheng didn't notice Xiao Huan's expression; his mind was pondering another matter.
Many Children, Many Blessings.
The colored trait was one of his greatest trump cards.
In the simulation, he relied on this to break through all the way, rushing from Qi Induction to Sea Opening.
But he always felt that he hadn't pushed this trait to its limit.
Giving birth to children could indeed provide feedback on cultivation, but that was in the simulation, where the time span was large, and decades were enough to have several.
What about in reality?
He couldn't just bring Li Zhiyi and the others over and then every day...
As he was thinking, a voice suddenly exploded in his mind—
[Host's cultivation level detected to have reached the Spirit Sea Realm. New function for the colored trait "Many Children, Many Blessings" has been unlocked.]
Chu Sheng was stunned.
New function?
