With Cultivation Simulator in a Chaotic World

"This aura..."

"Ancestor Realm?"

"Jiang Ming!?"

The massive Phoenix Illusion appeared above the Divine Capital.

The attention of the Divine Capital’s citizens was drawn away, and they all prostrated on the ground in worship.

"You managed to break through to the Ancestor Realm so quickly! How is it possible!"

The Phoenix Ancestor exclaimed in disbelief.

However, in Jiang Ming’s eyes, there was no trace of him.

His eyes shimmered with a peculiar light, as if he was gazing at the Celestial Dome.

"Thunder Tribulation..."

"It seems a bit like... a Thunder Tribulation targeting anomalies."

"Indeed, I am the anomaly of this world."

In Jiuzhou, cultivators practicing breakthrough align with the Heavenly Dao.

Generally, there are no Thunder Tribulations.

Because the Jiuzhou Heavenly Dao is active.

The vast system of Jiuzhou is constantly absorbing the energy drifting in the void.

The existence of cultivators is equivalent to the beneficial bacteria within the human body.

They help Jiuzhou accelerate the absorption of the drifting energy.

While cultivators indeed consume vast resources, Jiuzhou concurrently absorbs more energy, transforming it into more resources.

Moreover, in Jiuzhou, cultivators and the Heavenly Dao exist in a symbiotic relationship.

For instance, during a world war, the living beings of the world are needed to defend their land.

Similarly, when a cultivator falls, their energy and matter can become part of the world.

Therefore, there are rarely Thunder Tribulations in Jiuzhou.

There are only three reasons for a Thunder Tribulation in Jiuzhou.

The first is when ascending from the Lower Realm to the Upper Realm, one must pass the test of the Thunder Tribulation to prevent too many cultivators from ascending, causing instability between the Lower Realm and Jiuzhou.

The second is practicing a special cultivation technique, whether it’s a Thunder Element Technique or a Body Refining Technique; these techniques can attract a Thunder Tribulation to break through the technique’s level.

The third is being rejected by heaven and earth.

For example, some Evil Cultivators break through by devouring myriad spirits, which is more harmful than beneficial to heaven and earth, necessitating destruction by a Thunder Tribulation.

If one can withstand the Thunder Tribulation, it’s a sliver of Vitality granted by the Heavenly Dao.

Furthermore, some extremely evil beings, some visitors from the Outer Realm, their appearance or breakthrough will bring about Thunder Tribulation.

"I can bring about a Thunder Tribulation during my breakthrough in this world."

"There are only two reasons."

"One is that I’m like the evil of Jiuzhou, not accepted by this realm’s Heavenly Dao."

"The other is that this world is in a closed state, unable to draw energy from the void, and Jiuzhou’s regular cultivation is against the heavens."

This Thunder, however, appears quite normal.

There’s no sign of interference from any black factors; it’s pure Heavenly Fury throughout.

A red light suddenly flickered.

It stabbed forth simultaneously with the final bolt of Thunder descending.

However, at the same time, black factors manifested on Jiang Ming’s body, causing the Thunder to lose its target, striking into the space instead.

Jiang Ming grasped the stabbing red light with a single hand.

Within the red light was a crimson flying dagger made of feathers.

"You!"

Jiang Ming turned around.

His aura no longer climbed but began to gradually settle down.

In mid-air, the spinning Golden Core had long vanished, and the illusory little person re-integrated into Jiang Ming’s Dantian.

Nascent Soul Realm!

Jiang Ming’s aura returned to the essence, resembling that of a mortal.

Yet within, it revealed the ethereal and transcendent aura.

This is.

Land Immortal Realm!

"Ancient Spirit, since we have a mutual understanding, why did you attack me during my breakthrough?"

Jiang Ming calmly inquired.

He did not have the slightest aura instability of a cultivator who just broke through.

Instead, he appeared like an experienced cultivator who had broken through decades ago.

Because the Five Elements Technique Jiang Ming was currently mastering was endlessly self-cycling, incredibly stable.

"I couldn’t see through you, or perhaps you have a strong backer."

"But, you actually attracted a Thunder Tribulation."

Jiang Ming’s eyebrows slightly raised.

"What does a Thunder Tribulation imply?"

"It means there is no way you have any Ancestor Realm powerhouse behind you, nor any Great Power from the Sea of Suffering Realm, nor support from any faction whatsoever."

"Because Thunder Tribulations never descend upon us evils."

"Who exactly are you!"

The Phoenix Ancestor’s face carried anthropomorphic doubt and murderous intent.

"Why can’t it be the Human Race."

The Phoenix Ancestor laughed and said, "The Human Race, merely the provisions bestowed by the Supreme Divine King to us."

"What merit do they have to enter the Ancestor Realm."

"Even Zhaoo Yunfei, do you know he became an evil himself soon after entering the Ancestor Realm."

"You walk the path of Zhaoo Yunfei, how can I not know."

"Killing you might bring great benefits to me..."

The Phoenix Ancestor’s eyes showed greed.

Jiang Ming calmly looked at the Phoenix Ancestor but revealed a trace of his own aura.

This trace of aura carried with it a special circulating power.

The Phoenix Ancestor’s expression slightly froze.

"How is it possible!"

The power Jiang Ming exhibited was the same origin as the Phoenix Ancestor, namely the Ancestor Realm evil power.

The Phoenix Ancestor’s eyes showed a hint of confusion.

But Jiang Ming no longer wasted words.

He conducted a simple verification.

The aura he manifested, at least to an evil like the Phoenix Ancestor at the Ancestor Realm, showed no flaws.

As for the rest...

"Phoenix Vermilion Bird Bloodline..."

"What a pity, what a pity..."

"To have fallen to such a monstrous state."

"Never mind, I just happen to lack a mount."

Jiang Ming’s expression returned to tranquility.

His blue robe fluttering, standing tall and graceful.

The longsword was unsheathed, radiating radiant colors.

A sword light flickered between heaven and earth, instantly shattering the Phoenix Ancestor’s golden body.

A single sword struck upon the Phoenix Ancestor’s corporeal form.

"You!"

The Phoenix Ancestor could not conjure up their next thought in time.

The terror that faced them caused her to instinctively transform into Flowing Light and flee.

"What a pity..."

Phoenix Vermilion Bird Bloodline.
