With Cultivation Simulator in a Chaotic World

"Alright."

The puppet master’s waist had a top-tier storage pouch.

In the opulent resources and abundant supplies of Heaven-Falling Valley, the puppet master stayed without hesitation. Within the storage pouch were powerful puppets crafted by the puppet master, including those that had been refined three times and were exceptionally compatible with the cultivation techniques of the Blood Demon Sect.

"The Ten Thousand Paths Alliance holds grudges against me, and my past can no longer be concealed. Several Divinity Transformation cultivators won’t make a move against you, but those below may..."

This was an unspoken rule—battles among divinities should remain among divinities; the slaughter of innocent cultivators beneath them would only lead to the decline of the entire cultivation civilization.

Usually, Divinity Transformation cultivators would not act rashly, and other sects without Divinity Transformation cultivators wouldn’t dare provoke them.

But what was to be feared was a move from the other Nascent Soul sects under the Ten Thousand Paths Alliance.

The Blood Demon Sect was where Xiang Wuji learned the Dao, and he was unwilling for it to be destroyed.

After handling matters with the Blood Demon Sect, Xiang Wuji headed north, towards the Moon Dao Giant Cultivation Realm.

He applied the Concealing Breath Technique, and following the memories of his past life, he soon arrived at a familiar place.

A bamboo grove, ruins of a sect.

With the words "Ten Thousand Paths Alliance" inscribed on the mountain gate.

Xiang Wuji stepped inside.

"Friend, please reveal yourself."

Xiang Wuji’s expression remained calm.

An elder in plain clothes appeared.

"Are you done yet?!"

"I just want to eat some blood food!"

The elder suddenly swelled, his twisted face almost touching Xiang Wuji’s.

Xiang Wuji casually grabbed, and the elder was pressed to the ground.

"Want to eat?"

Xiang Wuji waved his hand, scattering some spirit medicine, which made the elder’s eyes light up as he began to devour.

Among them were a few Thousand-year-old Blood Spirit Grass plants; this grass, edible like flesh, possessed bizarre medicinal properties that typical alchemists found disdainful.

However, the elder ate with great enthusiasm.

"You carry the aura of Black Heaven."

Xiang Wuji said quietly.

"Black, Black Heaven, I don’t know." The elder said between ravenous bites.

"Then... what about Fa Zhao?"

Suddenly, the elder’s body stiffened.

Overwhelming demon thought emerged from him.

"Fa Zhao?!"

"Fa Zhao..."

The elder’s face contorted.

He suddenly knelt down, beginning to cry and wail.

"Master Fa Zhao, I was wrong, Master Fa Zhao."

"I, I have the wisdom root and can comprehend the Buddhist technique."

"Please don’t eat me."

Xiang Wuji just calmly watched the elder’s performance.

According to his information,

This elder had an extraordinary history.

He was one of the initial group of cultivators of the Ten Thousand Paths Alliance, later becoming a Divinity Transformation cultivator.

Though not from the first generation, he belonged to the second generation of Divinity Transformation cultivators within the alliance.

After the sealing of the Undying Xuanyuan, he gained the Dao, proud and flourishing.

Until he encountered Black Heaven from Xuanzhou, also known as Fa Zhao.

A prodigious talent able to break through to Divinity Transformation, a peerless expert who had cultivated for nearly ten thousand years in the Divinity Transformation Realm.

Was brutally crushed by Fa Zhao, shattering his Dao foundation and terrifying his primordial spirit.

Now could only linger on as a remnant, long past his prime.

Xiang Wuji’s expression turned slightly solemn, and he suddenly bowed to the elder.

"The nineteenth generation Undefeated Demon Blood Master pays respects to Elder Black Heaven."

A smile appeared on the elder’s face.

The aura around him was very familiar to Xiang Wuji.

It was Black Heaven’s aura.

Black Heaven had temporarily resurrected through a trace of qi mechanism remaining on the elder.

"Very well."

"Thank you, Elder, for the arrangements, allowing the junior to escape the death tribulation."

Black Heaven merely smiled and said, "Death tribulation?"

"You have already crossed a death tribulation yourself, otherwise the petty arrangement I left would not have worked at all."

Xiang Wuji was startled inside.

If he hadn’t been reborn once, he would have died in the Celestial Calamity and Demon Tribulation; Black Heaven couldn’t have schemed against Xiangg Ding, and Xiang Wuji would have been captured by the Divinity Transformation cultivators of the Ten Thousand Paths Alliance.

"But it’s a pity, the old monk sees that you haven’t practiced the Crossing All Beings Method."

Black Heaven seemed a little regretful.

Xiang Wuji looked at Black Heaven, whose emotions remained quite calm, and was quite surprised.

For he knew how sinister the Crossing All Beings Method was.

The ability of Black Heaven to maintain such rationality was truly astonishing.

"Hmm?"

"What you are cultivating... why is it the Initial Demon Scripture of Demon Lord Mara."

"This cultivation technique is known only to Mara..."

"A grand opportunity, though we Undefeated Demon Blood Masters could all walk our own path and create our own cultivation techniques."

"The Initial Demon Scripture, however, stands a level higher than any we have created."

"And due to the unique nature of the Undefeated Demon Blood and Initial Demon Scripture, the compatibility is also quite high..."

"Perhaps you might be able to break the failing fate of the Undefeated Demon Blood..."

Black Heaven murmured.

"Failing fate? What!?"

Xiang Wuji quickly seized upon the key point.

Black Heaven now seemed like an ordinary elder, who said with a wry smile: "Though the Undefeated Demon Blood is supernatural, the end is also destined."

"The endpoint for all Blood Masters... is downfall..."

"Why?"

"I do not know."

"But I am already dead, perhaps there is a remnant divine thought still lingering, but I am indeed dead."

"The Undying Xuanyuan is called undying, but that is due to the uniqueness of the cultivation technique he created."

"He will forever be between life and death, neither fully human nor ghost, undying, yet not truly alive."

"Since his sealing, the qi fortune of the Undefeated Demon Blood has departed from him, leading to the emergence of we Blood Masters one after another..."

"I could sense that a great power had emerged among the juniors, but he too is dead."

"Perhaps you can break the Heavenly Destiny, or perhaps not, I can only wish you well."

"The old monk has already passed the Crossing All Beings Method to you, there is nothing else I can give you."

"The old monk had some renown back in Xuanzhou, in the mountains beneath the Golden Buddha Sect, I left some treasures; you may take them, there is not much else I can offer."

"Amitabha Buddha, it is hard to cross all beings, everything is dictated by Heavenly Destiny..."

Black Heaven sighed.

"By the way, there was once a lady who came here, she carried your aura."

"She seemed to know of my existence, wanting to awaken me at the cost of her divine soul and body, to gain my power..."

"Only it’s a pity, the old monk was aware of your presence and didn’t agree with her request."

Black Heaven said.

Xiang Wuji was stunned.

Jing Xueqi...

Xiang Wuji thought of more.

So in the original timeline of Jing Xueqi, she came here to sacrifice everything to Black Heaven to acquire the power of Nascent Soul to exact revenge for him...

Even in this life, Jing Xueqi continued to do everything in her power to assist Xiang Wuji.

She didn’t even ask for recognition.

Xiang Wuji fell silent.

"Amitabha Buddha..."

Dharma Light illuminated Black Heaven’s body.

Black Heaven’s consciousness departed.

Although such an existence could temporarily revive its divine thought through various residual auras in the world, his essence no longer existed, each revival deducted from the remaining opportunities.

"The end?"

Xiang Wuji first smirked disdainfully.

Then fell into silence.

If he were merely a Blood Master, he wouldn’t care about the so-called Heavenly Destiny.

But he also bore the Bai Ze Demon Body, skilled in Qi Observation...

"Yet, the world doesn’t hold absolute endings, the Great Dao is fifty, Celestial Derivation makes it forty-nine."

"There must be a sliver of life to escape!"

New hope ignited in Xiang Wuji’s eyes.

[Changtian Calendar Year 12,267, two Divinity Transformation cultivators from the Ten Thousand Paths Alliance emerged, once again hunting you, to no avail.]

[You could feel that both attempts seemed mere probes, and the ten-year gap between them appeared to test your power and cultivation progress rate.]

[It seems like your opponent is holding back some grand move.]

[You can only continue to enhance your cultivation.]

[In the same year, you returned to Changzhou, continuing cultivation in Heaven-Falling Valley.]

[You effectively became the master of the Southern Wilderness Realm, despite its harsh conditions, a Divinity Transformation cultivator in normal circumstances cannot control an entire realm.]
