In a simulated life scenario, how do you defy fate and change your destiny every time?

Chapter 123 Three Lifetimes: The Devastation of a City, A Method of Mutual Destruction!
"I told you that if you surrender, I will grant you one wish."

“But you have failed to appreciate this kindness. In that case, I will slaughter the entire Qingyun County right in front of you.”

"Let me show you just how vast the difference is between you ants and those born with innate talent."

With just a few words, the thousand-year-old demonic locust tree decided the fate of more than 200,000 ordinary people in Qingyun County.

It opened its mouth and spat out a seven-colored poison pill, instantly causing poisonous mist to surge and miasma to spread, turning the area within a thousand feet into a dead zone!
The Thousand-Year Demon Locust Tree once created a Xuan-level martial art called Bone-Corroding Poison Mist.

This martial art can communicate with heaven and earth, condense poisonous energy and evil spirits; the longer it accumulates, the more terrifying its power becomes.

The Thousand-Year Demon Locust Tree had been cultivating in seclusion on Black Wind Ridge for hundreds of years, absorbing the poisonous elements in the mountains day and night for its own use, and had long since mastered this martial art to the highest level.

In the end, all the poisonous fog was condensed into a single poison pill!
If anyone comes into contact with this poison pill, even a fourth-grade Transcendent Realm martial artist will die instantly.

At this moment, under the urging of the thousand-year-old demonic locust tree.

This seven-colored poison pill continuously emitted poisonous mist and miasma, which mixed with the air to form a vast seven-colored poisonous cloud.

This poisonous cloud was terrifyingly powerful, and it spread rapidly towards Qingyun County.

The ants, insects, and beasts along the way were all corroded by the poisonous cloud, turning into a puddle of pus in an instant!
If the poisonous cloud is allowed to grow, the entire Qingyun County will be barren!

Lu Yuan frowned slightly, just about to swing his knife.

But a mighty will descended from the sky like an ancient divine mountain, instantly crushing all divine thoughts.

Lu Yuan's body sank, as if an invisible mountain was pressing him down on the spot.

He gritted his teeth and straightened his spine, his bones making a series of cracking sounds as if they were about to break under the strain.

Under the suppression of the divine power of the thousand-year-old demonic locust tree.

Now he can't even move a finger, let alone swing a knife!
This is the true power of a primordial demon!

Without using any martial arts skills, or even lifting a finger, one can easily crush a mortal ant!
Fortunately, Lu Yuan had mastered the Yi Jin Duan Gu Gong (a martial arts technique), reaching the point where true qi entered his internal organs, making him indestructible.

Otherwise, if it were any other Transcendent Martial Cultivator, they would probably be crushed into a pile of minced meat in an instant!
"Is this the terrifying power of a master martial artist with innate abilities?"

Lu Yuan felt heavy-hearted.

Those who do not enter the innate realm are all ants.

He has only been cultivating for a short time, and even his breakthrough to the Mortal Realm was rushed.

However, this thousand-year-old demonic locust tree possesses over a thousand years of cultivation and has even received a trace of the true teachings of the Ten Thousand Demon Cave.

For decades, it has remained in seclusion, honing its divine sense to an unparalleled solidity and firmness.

Even the great demons of Black Wind Ridge were completely unaware that their ancestor's strength had reached such an unbelievable level!

The third move of the Wind and Thunder Blade Technique, "Burial of the Moon," is already Lu Yuan's most powerful attack method.

Even though he tried his best, he couldn't do any damage to the thousand-year-old demonic locust tree.

Such a huge gap in strength is enough to make anyone despair.

Even Lu Yuan couldn't figure out how to break the deadlock.

However, since he dared to go out of the city alone to fight, he must have prepared many trump cards.

Just as he was preparing to use his trump card.

"Boom!"

The ground trembled violently.

Suddenly, the sound of rapid hoofbeats came from afar.

Then a middle-aged man leaped off his warhorse, and his long sword was suddenly drawn from its sheath.

He instantly slashed at the gray-robed old man who had transformed from the thousand-year-old demonic locust tree!
A chilling light flashed, and sword energy crisscrossed.

The extremely refined innate true essence, like a cold moonlight, pierced through the void and roared in, striking the seven-colored poison pill heavily!
"Crack!"

It was accompanied by a barely perceptible soft sound.

The poison pill was like a cracked egg, with several fine cracks appearing on its surface, as if it could break at any moment!
With the poison pill severely damaged, the seven-colored poisonous cloud also dissipated and no longer posed any threat.

The catastrophe that threatened to destroy the city has been averted!
"You audacious brat, how dare you ruin my cultivation?"

The thousand-year-old demonic locust tree was enraged and immediately engaged the middle-aged man in a fierce battle.

As for the other demon-suppressing envoys, they also joined the battle, working together to annihilate the remaining powerful demons.

They were well-trained and worked in perfect harmony.

They can also join forces to form battle formations, increasing their strength by several times over.

In contrast, the group of powerful demons in Black Wind Ridge, although they were quite strong, only knew how to fight individually and were a complete rabble.

In fact.

The reason why Black Wind Ridge has stood for hundreds of years is that it is guarded by that thousand-year-old demonic locust tree.

Otherwise, how could these idle demons possibly withstand the encirclement and suppression by the Demon Suppression Division?
"Fifth-rank innate martial artists, they are... from the Nanyang Demon Suppression Division?"

Seeing this, Lu Yuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Despite the Great Ling Dynasty's decay and corruption, the Demon Suppression Division still seems to have some use.

As the thousand-year-old demonic locust tree was restrained by Li Mu.

Lu Yuan felt a sense of relief and finally regained his ability to move.

"Please wait, seniors, let me lend you a hand."

Seeing the heavy casualties among the demons of Black Wind Ridge, Lu Yuan felt a pang of anxiety and immediately joined the battle with Blood Butcher.

Although he was no match for the Thousand-Year Demon Tree, dealing with these powerful demons was as easy as killing chickens and dogs.

[You have slain a Rank 3 Qi Gathering Demon and gained 4,000 Heaven-Mending Points!]

[You have slain a Rank 4 Transcendent Demon, gaining 7,000 Heaven-Mending Points!]

……

One after another, the great demons and monsters fell into pools of blood.

Lu Yuan's previously depleted Heaven-Mending Points quickly became abundant again, soon breaking through the 100,000 mark!

However, the other experts from the Demon Suppression Division were watching with their eyelids twitching wildly.

Where is the promised master of innate talent?

Why is there only one brat here?

Could this brat be a descendant or disciple of that master?
and many more? !
This seemingly innocent-looking brat is actually a fourth-grade Transcendent Realm martial artist?

Sensing the immense aura emanating from Lu Yuan, everyone present gasped in shock, their scalps tingling with awe.

In particular, Lu Yuan's height was as tall as that of a seven or eight-year-old child.

However, the experts of the Demon Suppression Division are experienced and have sharp eyes.

You can tell at a glance that Lu Yuan's true bone age is only two years old!
"What did I just see? A two-year-old martial artist at the Transcendent Realm?"

The members of the Demon Suppression Division exchanged glances, all seeing the shock in each other's eyes.

It should be noted that all members who can join the Demon Suppression Division possess remarkable talent.

Although the recruitment threshold of the Demon Suppression Division has been lowered considerably in recent years due to the increasingly serious demon problem.

But which of the people present wasn't a seasoned veteran who had traveled all over the country?

They had seen countless geniuses, and even the inner disciples of prestigious sects might not be worthy of their attention.

But what do they see now?
Lu Yuan was only two years old when he entered the fourth-grade Transcendent Realm.

What kind of unparalleled genius is this?
Even if he started cultivating from the womb, it shouldn't be this heaven-defying, right?
Moreover, when the blind man saw that sharp, snow-white blade again, his heart pounded wildly in fear.

The expert who injured him from more than ten miles away was actually this two-year-old child in front of him?
In that instant, the blind man's worldview was completely overturned, and he felt that the world must have gone mad!
Seeing Lu Yuan's effortless and casual manner, as if he were cutting melons and vegetables, all the experts from the Demon Suppression Division present were almost driven to despair.

They originally thought this was a near-death experience, and a bloody battle was inevitable.

Who knew that Lu Yuan would kill a third-grade demon with a single strike, leaving them no chance to even make a move?
When the last rank 3 demon fell under the Blood Butcher's Blade.

The members of the Demon Suppression Division suddenly realized that Lu Yuan had wiped out the entire battlefield!

"Senior Blind Man, how can there be such a prodigy in this world? Is he really only two years old?"

A member of the Demon Suppression Division, only twenty years old, asked in a trembling voice.

It should be noted that he came from a family of martial arts practitioners and displayed astonishing martial arts talent from a young age. He grew up in battle, and various spiritual herbs and tonics were a daily staple for him.

And he did not disappoint his family's expectations.

He successfully tempered his body at the age of eight and entered the second-grade Qi Condensation Realm at the age of thirteen.

At the age of eighteen, he entered the third-grade Qi Gathering Realm in one fell swoop. His extraordinary talent even caught the attention of the Nanyang Demon Suppression Division.

They spared him all the assessments and made an exception to recruit him into the Demon Suppression Division.

With the resources provided by his family and the Demon Suppression Division, he even has a chance to reach the fourth-grade Transcendent Realm before the age of fifty.

He originally thought that with his qualifications and talent, he could be called a prodigy.

But when he saw Lu Yuan, he was hit with an unprecedented blow, and even his Dao heart became slightly unstable!

It felt as if all my efforts and sacrifices over the years had been nothing but a joke!
"There are always people better than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding. Xiao Tao, you don't need to underestimate yourself."

"This child has an extraordinary destiny; he is a cursed lone star, or perhaps he is the reincarnation of some ancient monster who has cultivated again."

Noticing the other person's frustration and disappointment, the blind man shook his head and offered words of comfort.

In fact, even the blind man himself was completely devastated when he saw such a young martial artist at the Transcendent Realm!

I've spent my whole life cultivating myself, and I'm still not as good as a two-year-old child?
Only those who have experienced it firsthand can truly understand this kind of disparity.

Just as everyone was astonished by Lu Yuan's extraordinary talent.

On the other side, the battlefield of the Innate Realm had already reached a fever pitch.

Enraged, the ancient demonic locust tree showed no mercy whatsoever.

It has cultivated its skills for hundreds of years and has already mastered martial arts to a superb level.

Moreover, with the support of immense divine power, it can unleash unimaginable power with every move it makes!

Although Li Mu was at the third level of the Innate Realm, he had once killed an Innate Great Demon who had just entered the fifth rank.

But it was in that battle that he was severely injured, and it has taken him more than ten years to recover!
Moreover, there are inherent differences between them.

The ancient demonic locust tree before us has cultivated for over a thousand years and is already at the sixth level of the Innate Realm.

His true essence was as vast as the sea, and his divine power was as imposing as a mountain.

Even if Li Mu were at his peak, he might not be a match for it!
"Damn it! This thousand-year-old demonic locust tree has already grasped a trace of the essence of the Divine Sea Realm, and its divine soul is even stronger than that of human martial artists!"

Li Mu inwardly groaned, feeling increasingly uneasy.

He had heard of the name of this thousand-year-old demonic locust tree before. How could a powerful innate demon that could make the Nanyang Demon Suppression Division suffer repeated setbacks be an easy opponent?
But military orders are absolute.

Faced with the personal order from the Inspector General, no matter how unwilling Li Mu was, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and carry out the order.

He had already prepared for the worst before he came.

But he never expected that the power of this thousand-year-old demonic locust tree would be so terrifying!

Faced with the relentless onslaught of the thousand-year-old demonic locust tree, he could only desperately try to hold on, gritting his teeth and enduring the onslaught.

But prolonged defense will inevitably lead to defeat.

When Li Mu barely managed to block a flying leaf attack from the Thousand-Year Demonic Locust Tree, he was already panting heavily from exhaustion.

At this moment, his old strength was exhausted and his new strength had not yet been generated, so the thousand-year-old demonic locust tree immediately seized the opportunity to exploit his weakness.

With a flick of its wrist, the thousand-year-old demonic locust tree suddenly sprouted countless tree roots from its entire arm.

These roots intertwined and tangled together, transforming into a vine whip that lashed down at Li Mu's head!
"Snapped!"

This vine whip strike was powerful and fierce, and it was also imbued with immense divine power.

One blow.

The air exploded, and even the void trembled!
Li Mu had no time to defend himself and was struck squarely, instantly spitting out a mouthful of blood.

He was sent flying hundreds of feet away, smashing several mountain peaks along the way and creating several holes before finally managing to stop.

As for his wounds, they were a bloody mess, with the skin torn and flesh ripped open.

His entire chest was caved in; I don't know how many bones were broken!
A searing pain shot through Li Mu's chest, causing his vision to blur and nearly causing him to faint on the spot.

He bit his tongue, barely managing to regain his senses.

He then got up from the ground and took a deep breath.

The innate true energy gathered from all parts of the body and concentrated at the wound, and the originally sunken chest slowly returned to normal!

This is the power of those with an innate constitution.

As long as the true essence is not exhausted, severed limbs can regenerate!
However, Li Mu's face was ashen and his breath was weak, clearly indicating that he had also paid a heavy price.

"kill!"

Li Mu roared and charged forward again, initiating a life-or-death battle.

As a demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, his relationship with demons is one of irreconcilable conflict, with no room for reconciliation!

However, he was injured and soon found himself at a disadvantage again!

"Oh no, the Demon Slayer is injured?"

The members of the Demon Suppression Division narrowed their eyes, a sense of foreboding rising in their hearts.

Someone immediately wanted to step forward to help, but was stopped by the blind man in time.

"Don't go there!"

"Below the innate realm, all are but ants; we mortals are not qualified to participate in such a battle!"

"Even if we go there, we'll just be throwing our lives away!"

The blind man's face turned ashen, and he clenched his fists in resentment.

He was a fourth-grade Transcendent Martial Cultivator, and among the group from the Demon Suppression Division, he was second only to Li Mu in strength.

Therefore, he understood better than anyone just how terrifying a primordial demon could be!
"Are we just supposed to watch Lord Li Mu be killed by that thousand-year-old demonic locust tree?"

"This thousand-year-old demonic locust tree is a supreme being even among innate great demons. It is beyond our ability to deal with. Let's ask the Inspector for help."

The blind man sighed.

Nanyang Prefecture is over a thousand miles away from here, and even if Sikong Lie is a powerful expert in the Divine Sea Realm, it would be difficult for him to arrive in a short time.

At this time, night falls and the lights come on.

The blind man glanced back at the myriad lights behind him and made a resolute decision in his heart.

"Everyone, let's use Blood Soul Summoning."

Upon hearing this, everyone from the Demon Suppression Division was startled.

After a moment of silence, they simultaneously pulled a thumb-sized copper pot from their pockets.

When the cork was removed, a bright red, blood-like liquid flowed inside.

A strange medicinal fragrance spread through the air, making one's blood boil and one's mind become more active than ever before, as if even one's soul had been ignited!
Blood Soul Guide!

A forbidden item crafted by the Demon Suppression Division!

It can burn all of one's own vital energy, potential, and soul, thereby increasing combat power more than tenfold in a short period of time and gaining power comparable to that of ghosts and gods!

But the price was their lives!

This is a tactic of taking the enemy down with you; once used, there is no way to reverse it.

Although they were the elite of the Nanyang Demon Suppression Division.

But in front of a primordial demon, they are nothing more than a group of insignificant ants.

If they want to participate in this battle, this is the last option left!
I hope that we, these ants, can at least hold out until the Inspector arrives.

Think of this.

A resolute glint flashed in the eyes of the blind man and the others. They immediately brought the copper bottle to their lips, preparing to drink the liquid inside in one gulp.

"and many more!"

But at this time.

A childish yet undeniably authoritative voice suddenly came from the side.
