It's just a simulation game, how did the fairy become real?

This familiar scene brought a smile to his face.

He won.

When you regained consciousness, you had already left the demon realm.

It's still the familiar thatched cottage, the familiar peonies.

However, this time is different; there's an inexplicable atmosphere between you two.

At this moment, you both know each other's identities.

However, no one took the initiative to speak up and clarify all of this.

Chapter 181 A desperate battle?

"When did you start to guess everything?"

Finally, it was Peony who couldn't help but speak first.

Peony was equally curious as to why Zhang Yang dared to confront and contradict Xi Meng so directly.

Even after repeatedly defying him, he still managed to survive.

"just."

"Ah."

"I really only just figured everything out."

But what I'm more curious about is, exactly how many so-called candidates did you select?

"secret."

"Okay, then I'll ask another question."

What exactly is my mission?

He could guess some of it, but he was still completely clueless about Xi Meng's specific plans.

"Eliminate all demons within the entire demon race who oppose the Demon King's orders."

After Shaoyao finished speaking, Zhang Yang was stunned. Was she really not joking?

He had just entered the Nascent Soul Realm and had only just stabilized his realm.

Send him to kill a group of veteran demon clan powerhouses?

What's the difference between this and sending him to his death?

"Are you really sure?"

"Sure.

That wasn't the original plan, but what can I say, you're too clever for your own good.

Peony said something that left Zhang Yang completely baffled.

These days, is it wrong to be a little smart?

Peony sighed inwardly.

The original plan was to lure Zhang Yang into the demon realm and assassinate the demon king directly.

This caused chaos throughout the entire demon realm.

Xi Meng faked her death to escape, moving from the open to the shadows.

Then we need to find a way to reorganize our resources.

But who knew that this time when he entered the demon realm, Peony was only held back by some trivial matters and was unable to complete the guidance in time, which allowed Zhang Yang to figure out the changes in the demon realm.

Since Zhang Yang's hatred for Xi Meng wasn't that great.

Why not just change the plan and revise the goal directly?

However, this might mean that Xi Meng will face even greater pressure.

"Don't worry, I'm not asking you to kill them right now."

However, you'd better speed up your growth, otherwise you'll still be the one who dies if you fail to complete the mission.

Peony shook her head as she watched Zhang Yang's reaction.

Now you know fear? Where were you before?

When you talked back to Ximeng before, why weren't you afraid?

Do you really think that Xi Meng, this demon king, is doing charity?

Every demon king in the demon realm has risen to power through bloody battles.

Zhang Yang is still alive only because he still possesses value.

If even basic values ​​no longer exist, then there is no need for them to continue existing.

[Through your interactions with the peony, you learned about the powerful demon races of the demon realm.]

Those who oppose the Demon King number more than two hands.

Each of them possesses at least the perfected Nascent Soul stage.

With your current strength, you can't do anything against them.

However, the fact that Peony is by your side naturally indicates that Xi Meng has given her approval.

She will create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your individual physical condition.

[As for the resources you need, they will all be provided by Shaoyao. All you need to do is continuously break through and improve your strength in the shortest possible time.]

However, even with your full effort and abundant resources, your breakthrough speed is still significantly slower than it was in the previous two years.

Even from Peony's perspective, the effort you've put in has already surpassed everything before.

But you always feel like something's missing.

[Until one day, during a sparring session with Peony, she made a mistake and struck your vital point.]

Although this move posed no threat to your life, it made you realize the most crucial point.

You lack the most important sense of crisis.

If resources are plentiful, you don't need to explore dangerous areas.

Knowing full well that Xi Meng wouldn't kill you, you were also relieved of the pressure of a life-or-death crisis for a short period of time.

Therefore, no matter how much pressure the peony puts on you, it's not enough to make you truly feel a life-or-death crisis.

You've decided to put yourself through this once.

When you told Peony about your desire to walk the line between life and death, she paused for a moment, surprised that you would suddenly have such a thought.

After a brief exchange with Ximeng, the other party agreed to your idea.

[And I've given you a list.]

Many demons within the demon realm are considering leaving and entering the main world to develop their power.

After all, no matter how good the demon realm is, it can never compare to the main world occupied by human cultivators.

Whether in terms of resources or anything else, this place is far superior to the demon realm.

Even under Xi Meng's orders, a large number of demons still secretly left the demon realm against her wishes.

The people you saw when you entered the demon realm were actually the secret agents secretly cultivated by the demon race.

The list that Peony gave you includes demons whose strength slightly exceeds your limits.

Taking them down won't be an easy task for you.

This ensures you'll experience life-or-death situations, while also guaranteeing you a chance to escape.

[You've carefully sifted through the information on these demon race members.]

The information Peony gave you is far more detailed than what those sects possess.

You also now possess the potential to exploit their weaknesses.

After your continuous screening, you finally identified your target: a pheasant demon a level above you.

Even if you have prior knowledge of a lot of information about your opponent, you still don't have a high chance of taking them down.

You can only choose to try.

【Your choice:】

[1. Choose a suitable opportunity and strike directly. (This option has a low success rate and is highly likely to result in death.)]

[2. Plan for failure before you act; prepare an escape route before taking action. (This option has a lower success rate but a higher survival rate.)]

[3. Cut off all escape routes and go all in. (This option carries a high risk, but the success rate of the kill is relatively high. Please choose carefully.)]

[4. Personal intervention, remaining attempts: three.]

"To take an extreme approach, if it doesn't work, then take a step back."

Choose three!

You know full well that what you need is a battle with no way out.

You need to push yourself to the limit to improve faster.

You accurately predicted the area and time of the enemy's appearance, and launched your attack the instant they appeared.

However, the other side seemed completely unsurprised by your ambush, as if they already knew your exact location.

You were already at a lower level, and now that your opponent was prepared, your situation has instantly become extremely difficult.

But your escape routes are all cut off. You know the opponent's weaknesses, and you're also aware of your own limits. You must find the only solution under immense pressure.

[But in the heat of battle, your opponent unleashed a trump card you never anticipated. It was something that had never appeared in your information.]

This move by your opponent caught you somewhat off guard.

Even if you give it your all, it seems difficult to turn the tide. But the immense pressure forces you to constantly push your limits.

[Your resilience exceeded that pheasant demon's expectations. It's as if you'll never be killed; no matter how many times you're knocked down, you'll always get back up in front of it.]
