Chapter 164 The Eighth Simulation (5k)

[With your intervention, the Federal General Office and the Federal Military have become increasingly estranged.]

The early emergence of the Guardian Legion and the Red Heart Army has had a profound impact on the development of the world.

With the support of Elder Jun and Elder Jian, and the strong backing of the Federal Military, the Red Heart Society has spread rapidly throughout the Federation.

The lives of over a billion people in the Federation have been directly affected by the Red Heart Society.

[Those working at the bottom of society have seen their lives greatly improved thanks to the various policies of the Red Heart Society, and their future has been significantly changed.]

Even the numbered battle groups stationed on the Abyss battlefield, with the help of the military forces involved in the deal between the Red Heart Society and the Qin family, have seen their ability to combat Abyss creatures greatly enhanced.

[Thanks to your transformation, the name of the Red Heart Society has begun to shine in the world ahead of schedule, in a different form.]

[Because of your influence, the overall fate of all living beings worldwide has been altered to some extent.]

The world may be reborn in your hands.

[However, under your continued and profound influence, your own destiny has long been intertwined with the destiny of the world.]

The repeated, profound influence caused people to lower their gaze and focus their attention.

This time, what you'll face may not be fate's mockery, but rather the stern hand of fate about to fall.

【Destiny points +25000.】

Lin Xia smiled as she looked at the series of prompts flashing before her eyes.

really!

The influx of Fate Points is unprecedented, driven by decisions that will change the entire Federation and even influence global development.

Although it was 25,000, it was also related to the irony of fate.

But after being mocked by fate for so long, I've long since become immune to expressions of stupidity.

The sudden influx of so many Fate Points allowed him to accumulate enough for the next simulation.

"However, the number of destiny points needed in the future is increasing."

Lin Xia sighed, "It took a few days to scrape together the simulation fees, then a month, and then several months."

"If things continue like this, we'll have to look into the abyss from now on."

"After all, there are quite a lot of creatures in the abyss."

"The three-month cooldown period is almost over after the first free simulation was used up last time."

"However, once the free simulation is used up, the Fate Points required for the next simulation will double."

"Now that we've accumulated enough Fate Points, let's use this one first, and then use the free simulation opportunity next time."

Thinking about it, Lin Xia paused slightly.

He suddenly remembered that the Lava Demon had said that the Abyss was invading many worlds at the same time.

If fate points become scarce in the future, perhaps the abyss can serve as a springboard to spread the glory of loyalty to other worlds.

If you have enough strength, there will always be more solutions than problems.

When we are weak, the abyss is an insurmountable disaster, and the culprit that causes the destruction of the world.

But once you become powerful, the abyss might just become your ranch!

Those demon races, those powerful supreme lords, ultimately became caged birds of the Red Heart Society!

"Whoosh!"

Just then, a whooshing sound rang out all around.

Then, the old man with a happy expression appeared in Lin Xia's office.

During this time, he has been observing and comprehending a more complete version of the true meaning of the soul.

Now, his soul realm has broken through to level five.

Incredible!

One day, what hinders a professional's breakthrough will turn out to be the least important experience energy.

"Congratulations!"

Looking at the old man's expression, Lin Xia knew that he had made another breakthrough in the realm of the soul.

The old soldier grinned, then remembered the real reason he had come.

"I heard from Lin Xue that the Red Heart Society can help eighth-level professionals comprehend the true meaning of the soul and condense their soul domain to the greatest extent."

“I have several disciples who are traveling abroad. They have all reached the eighth level, but they are stuck at the stage of the true meaning of the soul without any progress.”

"I just want to ask if I can get them to join the Red Heart Society?"

Help 8th-tier professionals advance to 9th-tier!

Although it sounds outrageous, the fact that Chixin can help him get promoted in a very short time has already proven that this is an organization capable of miracles.

If even a ninth-level advancement can help with promotion, then helping an eighth-level advancement is perfectly normal, isn't it?
In essence, this is the same promotion system.

"As their introducer, that's certainly possible."

Lin Xia's expression remained unchanged upon hearing this. The old man was someone who valued gratitude highly; in other words, he was very suitable for moral blackmail or coercion.

However, from another perspective, as long as the Chixin Society has shown great kindness to the veteran and treated his family and friends very well, the veteran will not betray the Chixin Society.

If any problems arise among those around the military elder, he will resolve them immediately.

"Okay, thank you!"

The old man cupped his hands in greeting, "Don't worry, all my disciples have been carefully vetted by me."

"Each one is absolutely reliable!"

"If they dare to harm the Red Heart Society in the future, I will personally eliminate them!"

After a brief chat, the old man hurried off to attend to his own business.

After watching the old man leave, Lin Xia glanced at her simulation interface.

The next moment, he had a thought, and the simulation interface started running.

[Consume 38400 destiny points, simulator unlocked successfully.]

[Current Destiny Points: 4080.]

[Simulation begins. 】

In October of the 125th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, several of Elder Jun's disciples received their master's orders and rushed back from other countries around the world.

At your suggestion, they began studying the second edition of "The True Explanation of the Soul."

Two disciples entered a state of sudden enlightenment while reading.

The other disciples had many questions in their minds, but with the old headmaster's explanations, their doubts instantly transformed into resources for their growth.

The more they interacted with the former principal, the more moved and impressed they became by his profound knowledge.

[Even at certain crucial junctures, they discovered that the old headmaster could effortlessly recall profound details about the soul that even their teachers were unaware of.]

During the time they spent teaching under the old principal, they gained new insights into their souls almost every day.

Occasionally, they would subconsciously feel that the old principal was the role model of mentorship they had always imagined.

[In December of the 125th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, Sword Elder comprehended the Level 5 Soul Domain.]

Under the guidance of the old principal, Yang Rong, the second disciple of the military elder, successfully condensed his soul domain and stepped into the ninth level.

The first thing Yang Rong did after being promoted to the ninth level was to kowtow to the old principal to express his gratitude.

The old soldier stood by, watching, and nodded in agreement.

Without the guidance of the old principal, Yang Rong might never have achieved the Nine Revolutions level in his lifetime.

Such a great favor deserves more than just a bow; addressing him as "father" or "grandfather" upon future meetings would not be an exaggeration.

At this moment, the Red Heart Society's top combat force has been assembled.

Although Elder Jun and Elder Jian are still level 94, their level 5 Soul Domain is enough for them to easily crush other professionals of the same level.

In January of the 126th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, three million Red Heart Army soldiers, equipped with the most advanced military weaponry and with the cooperation of the military headquarters, swiftly took over all the provinces of the Federation.

The Red Heart Army's open and aboveboard entry into the city provoked resistance from officials at all levels of the Federation.

The military headquarters ordered the troops to remain stationary.

However, the top-tier and second-tier battle groups in the surrounding provinces generally have intricate connections with local powerful families and clans.

Therefore, when the Federal Headquarters issues an order to eliminate the enemy, and when the orders from the two functional departments conflict, the local garrison units choose to obey the Federal Headquarters' orders.

But how could the Red Heart Society's preparations compare to those of these Class A and Class B battle groups?

Although the Red Heart Army has only been established for less than six months, the professional levels of its members are not very high.

However, with the aid of advanced military weaponry, taking down these combat groups from a distance is entirely feasible.

Most importantly, the military's elite forces are now all in the Red Heart Army.

If any battle groups manage to reach the forefront, they will face a devastating attack from high-level professionals.

The uprising that occurred within the Federation immediately attracted the attention of other countries.

[Emperor White Eagle, in particular, was bewildered by the Red Heart Society's uprising and its swift takeover of over thirty provinces within the Federation.]

【what? 】

【Is it so fast? 】

How long has it been since the White Eagle Empire sent over the new military production chain and related motherboards?

[In just a few months, the members of the Red Heart Society have probably only just learned how to start a production chain, right?]

[So they're starting a rebellion already?]

Most importantly, they actually succeeded in their rebellion!

Is the Federal Headquarters really that weak?

[Not only the White Eagle Empire, but also the Winter Empire, Sunset Empire, and Peacock Empire were somewhat bewildered after their investigations, seeing the Red Heart Society's blank credentials.]

[If the intelligence agency hadn't thoroughly vetted and trusted individuals, they would have genuinely suspected the other party was just amusing them.]

Is the Red Heart Society, which aims to overthrow the Federation, a new type of civilian organization that has been established for about six months?

What kind of grassroots organization is so aggressive?

[And how did the Federation just disappear like that, so vibrant and full of life?]

[Oh, it's still there.] [But what's the point of keeping a central city if we've lost control of over thirty provinces?]

[In fact, both the Federal Office and the Qin family were quite baffled by this matter.]

As is well known, rebellion is a long-term undertaking.

Even if they gain the upper hand, it will take several years, and it's best done in a time of widespread chaos and warlordism.

Isn't the Federation currently in a golden age?

[Peace and tranquility prevail!]

[A powerful nation!]

[A powerful federation that resisted the White Eagle Empire in the north, defeated the Sunset Empire in the east, and fought against the Winter Empire in the south—how could it just vanish like that?]

How is this feeling any different from waking up to find the world gone?

However, the internal strife within the Federation still prompted several major empires to launch a war.

Only the White Eagle Emperor felt that Chi Xin was extremely ominous, and amidst the boiling clamor in the White Eagle court, he decided to hold back for now.

[Others may not understand the Red Heart Society, but doesn't he?]

Who would have thought that the Chixin Association, which was soliciting donations from him just a few months ago, would suddenly turn out like this?

There must be something fishy going on here!

Therefore, he decided to play it safe.

In March of the 126th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, the Winter Empire launched an attack on the southern border defenses, citing years of border incursions by the Federation as a pretext.

[With internal strife in the Federation, border troops will inevitably be mobilized to defend the capital!]

In this situation, not fighting would be a disservice to oneself!

In the same month, the Sunset Empire, the Peacock Empire, and a military alliance of eight kingdoms in the West declared war on the Federation under various pretexts.

There are universally accepted standards for judging whether or not to kick someone when they're down.

Even the smaller nations that previously only dared to grovel before the Federation have begun to harbor ambitions of usurpation, wanting to take advantage of the Federation's internal strife to gain a share of the spoils.

Ideally, we should take this opportunity to seize a large portion of territory to expand our power.

Throughout history, only those with vast territories can be called great powers!

[That territory is very small, perhaps only the size of a single city or even a province in another country. No matter how strong its economy, it cannot be called a great power.]

[After all, great powers value strategic depth. A city-state can be wiped out with a single forbidden military strike; what chance does it have for any subsequent resistance?]

[What none of the nations that declared war expected was that the Federation's border troops stood tall and proud on the border, their eyes filled with fighting spirit, showing no sign of dejection or sorrow.]

[Because soon after, the military allowances and various subsidies promised by the Red Heart Society instructors were all delivered to them.]

For the military, pay represents loyalty!

If someone has no money, and can't even afford food, how can you expect them to be loyal?

Therefore, the overwhelming victory that the countries had imagined did not materialize.

Even the military federation formed by several small countries in the western part of the Federation collapsed at the first sign of a counterattack from the Federation's border troops.

Upon learning of this, Lin Xue urged the Federation to seize the opportunity to launch a westward expansionist war.

"Aren't you trying to take advantage of the situation?"

Let's go!

Let's see who ends up being robbed in the end.

In April of the 126th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, Elder Jun and Elder Jian entered the central city of the Federation alone.

On that day, all three Federation ninth-level professionals, led by the Qin family patriarch, perished without exception.

In May of the 126th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, the Federation officially withdrew from the stage of history.

After successfully taking over the Federation, the Red Heart Society began sweeping reforms internally.

First, at the military and combat group level.

There are no problems with the military reorganization.

With the explanation and assistance of the Red Heart Society instructors, the Federal Army cooperated quite well on the reform issue.

Five times the salary!

[Ten times the bonus!]

[Twenty times the allowance!]

[Thirty times the food expenses!]

In this situation, who would object?

[While many high-ranking military officers may come from privileged families, when lower-ranking soldiers understand the immense benefits of reform, their resistance is destined to be futile.]

If they truly refuse to accept it, military orders must be used to force the soldiers to rise up and resist.

Those soldiers will show them what the wrath of the united front truly means!

Compared to the smoothly progressing army, the battle group's situation appeared much more chaotic.

[Especially the Class A and numbered battle groups, whose members are mostly from aristocratic families, are the most vocal in their protests.]

Even more extreme, some have directly joined forces with several numbered and Class A battle groups, preparing to launch a forced attack on the areas where the Red Heart Society is located in the Abyss Battlefield.

Faced with such a reckless move, most numbered chapters chose to remain on the sidelines and observe.

After all, the two top-tier ninth-level cultivators in the Red Heart Society are simply too formidable.

Of course, they were also watching how the Red Heart Society would handle this matter.

If the handling of the matter is ambiguous or even indifferent, then they will also join in the rebellion.

That same month, Yang Rong ventured alone into the midst of these rebellious groups.

The next day, the blood and corpses scattered everywhere told the world of the Red Heart Society's ruthless methods.

[With a ninth-level expert attacking without restraint, these Federal Class A battle groups and numbered battle groups were no match for them!]

[Especially with their highest military equipment being targeted by the second generation of the Red Heart faction, it was a completely one-sided massacre!]

[In June of the 126th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, the Red Heart Society began its reform of the Federation warbands.]

For members of the battleband who come from ordinary backgrounds and are not from aristocratic families, Redheart will transfer them to the guard battleband.

[As for the members of the battle group who came from aristocratic families, you and Lin Xue picked out familiar names.]

Those from aristocratic families also hold great expectations for Chi Xin's ideals.

But these people are always a minority.

Most members of aristocratic families have irreconcilable life-or-death conflicts with the Red Heart Society.

Therefore, you assigned these scions of noble families to the Federal First Combat Group.

Some scions of prominent families are quite satisfied with your arrangements.

After all, in their minds, the Number One Battle Group represents the nation's top combat power.

Their strength, even within the entire Federation, is among the strongest.

So you definitely want to create a world-renowned super team, which is why they don't have any objections.

However, compared to this, some rational members of the warband felt that something was amiss.

This doesn't look like intensive training; it feels more like a mass slaughter.

Unsurprisingly, when they voiced their idea, they were met with ridicule from others.

[Big brother, what are you thinking about?]

Now that the Red Heart Society has just taken over the Federation, everything is in need of rebuilding, and it is precisely at this time that talent from all fields is needed.

[Especially in terms of high-end combat capabilities, these are scarce resources in any country.]

How could the Red Heart Society possibly massacre them?

Isn't this self-reducing of combat power?

Especially at this critical moment when a national war has broken out, isn't Chixin Hui afraid that doing so will cause unrest among the troops?

Those rational scions of aristocratic families were successfully persuaded by this set of theories.

Only a very small group of people, still feeling uneasy, simply relinquished all their positions and authority within the warband and illegally fled to other countries.

[In August of the 126th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, after the reorganization of the army and battle groups, their strength was greatly enhanced.]

[When the Crimson Heart Society released its various rare cultivation techniques, such as the Crimson Heart Refining Method and the Crimson Heart Strengthening Method—techniques that transcended those of the Federation's aristocratic families—and began disseminating them within the military, it was met with direct resistance from these families.]

Although the cultivation techniques presented by the Red Heart Society have nothing to do with them.

But they don't care!

The centuries-old monopoly on cultivation techniques established by these aristocratic families must not be broken.

As the saying goes, there are no dynasties that last a thousand years, but there are families that last a thousand years!

[A prestigious family!]

[They are the true masters of this land!]

[In any country, or among any factions, once they reach a certain point of development, it inevitably comes down to a few powerful families sitting down together to discuss strategies.]

National affairs, in a sense, were more of a private matter for these aristocratic families.

Therefore, the precious martial arts techniques within the Red Heart Society, if truly desired to be disseminated, can be freely shared among aristocratic families.

[It can even be used to spread knowledge when training personal guards and elite battle groups.]

This is all within the limits of what the aristocratic families can tolerate!

However, when the Red Heart Society began disseminating these precious techniques throughout the entire army, and even planned to spread them widely across the country, the aristocratic families became uneasy.

However, the Red Heart Society will not reason with these aristocratic families.

[When the Federation existed, we reasoned with the powerful families.]

The Federation has collapsed, yet they still try to reason with the powerful families.

"Then wouldn't the Federation have been destroyed for nothing?"
