I will eventually become a god through sheer hard work.

Chapter 184 The Application of Yan Liancai, New Function of Consciousness Simulation, Xue Jing's Fanatical Little Fan (4K)

in the space of consciousness.

Countless pixels rotated and coalesced to form Xue Jing's body.

He clenched his fist, checked his body's composition data as usual, and then looked around.

This is a barren, flat wilderness where only yellow earth exists.

After accompanying Xue Wan to set off fireworks and celebrate the New Year, Xue Jing took a shower, lay down on the bed, and began to use consciousness simulation.

He had a few things he wanted to test... and it had been a long time since he had used his consciousness space, so he took this opportunity to learn about the changes when [Contemplation - True] was upgraded to Lv7.

With a thought, wooden stakes appeared on the ground in front of Xue Jing.

Then, his pupils turned a divine silver-white, paused slightly, and without making any movement, he suddenly disappeared from the spot with a 'boom'.

If viewed from the sky from God's perspective, one would see Xue Jing moving incredibly fast, weaving between the wooden stakes with unbelievable agility and speed, leaving a trail of colorful flames trailing behind him that lingered for a long time.

In just about a second, he bypassed all the wooden stakes with a winding and twisting route, appearing nearly a hundred meters away, leaving behind a trail of colorful flames that was extremely beautiful.

After a while, all the wooden stakes broke in two from the middle, and the broken parts slowly slid down the cut, as if they had been cut off at the same time by an extremely sharp blade in that instant.

"Flame Continuous Colors...this move is quite useful."

Xue Jing nodded.

"It ignores the laws of physics to a certain extent, without the need for acceleration, and instantly bursts into the highest speed... The theory of mental power interfering with one's own reality is manifesting itself in more and more places in my body."

"However, this move also has a drawback..."

Xue Jing pondered for a moment.

"The killer move that simulates fireworks has the advantages and characteristics of fireworks, but it also has the disadvantages of fireworks."

"Just like how you need to fill different gunpowders, colorants, and arrange the proportions and placement of materials in advance to make fireworks bloom in a certain way, this 'Flame Continuous Color' technique is the same."

"I need to plan out all the moves before I make a move... Once I make a move, I can't change my strategy midway."

This is equivalent to a script with preset button layout. Once you've figured out how to make a move, your body will move on its own without needing your control.

The downside is that you can't change your moves mid-game... but that's actually a strength in a way.

Just like before, even with that high-speed burst of movement, he was still able to move extremely nimbly between the wooden stakes.

This is difficult to do under normal circumstances. To be able to turn nimbly at high speeds without slowing down is too difficult. Perhaps a master who has broken through limits and controls his entire body with his consciousness can do it, but he himself cannot do it at present.

However, in his Flame-Colored state, he interfered with his own reality to some extent, and he actually did it.

After thinking for a moment, Xue Jing had another thought. With a 'boom,' he moved forward quickly for a distance, trailing a colorful trail of flames, before abruptly stopping.

"Very good. This shortcoming seems to be just a minor one... Although you can't change your moves midway, you can force yourself to stop midway. Although there will be a momentary pause as a result, it's enough."

Xue Jing nodded in satisfaction.

"The remaining problem is that the Heavenly Blade's killing moves and ultimate techniques consume mental energy, not the abundant physical strength in my body... But this is my problem, not the technique itself."

"My current mental strength is sufficient, but not enough for me to use it without restraint. I still need to be a little more careful... Luckily, I have the skill [Visualization - True], which can increase mental strength. Otherwise, I would probably be finished after just one [Cherry Blossom Full Moon] move."

After testing the effects of his newly mastered killing move, Xue Jing had a thought, and the pixelated blocks in front of him rotated, revealing a human figure.

The short boy, who is only 1.6 meters tall, faced Du Mingluan, his final opponent in the Fengcheng elimination rounds.

The Lv7 level [Contemplation - Truth] creates a more realistic character in the consciousness space compared to Lv6.

Du Mingluan's face perfectly captured the chuunibyou (delusional) coldness of a teenager, and even showed a hint of serious hostility when he saw Xue Jing, as if he were a real person with genuine feelings.

But before he could do anything, or even get into a fighting stance, Xue Jing appeared behind him, trailing a colorful trail of flames, and flicked his right hand, which resembled a palm strike.

"boom--"

A long bloodstain appeared in the very center of Du Mingluan's body, and his left and right sides slowly separated, splitting into two halves, with blood and internal organs spilling onto the ground.

"It's a bit weak."

Xue Jing muttered to himself.

In his opinion, Du Mingluan's strength was not particularly outstanding. His only truly formidable move was the ultimate technique, Night Cicada, which required Xue Jing to unleash his own ultimate technique domain in order to overwhelm him.

However, as long as the opponent doesn't have time to unleash their ultimate technique, they are just an ordinary opponent that Xue Jing can easily kill, no different in essence from the likes of Li Chengxuan.

"Oh right, let's see if this works..."

Xue Jing suddenly had a brilliant idea.

With a thought, Du Mingluan reappeared in the arena, and next to him appeared a cockroach monster.

Then, Xue Jing waved his right hand:

"My turn! Draw a card!"

"Activate the Spell Card - Fusion!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Du Mingluan and the cockroach monster truly transformed into countless pixel blocks, rotating and merging together, rearranging and recombinating.

A short while later, 'Du Mingluan' appeared.

At this moment, he has two sharp antennae on his head, his eyes have become huge compound eyes, his whole body is covered with a dark brown exoskeleton, his joints are covered with sharp barbs, and he is wearing a helmet that looks like a cockroach's head, covering his face.

He looks like a cyborg wearing a cockroach suit.

Xue Jing blinked: "Huh? It really works?"

He looked strange.

"This design...where did this Kamen Rider come from?"

Before he could even move, Kamen Rider Du Mingluan slightly bent his knees, and then—Bang!

He launched himself forward like a cannonball, hurtling towards Xue Jing at an absurdly fast speed.

"Cockroach dash?"

This familiar scene awakened Xue Jing's memory, and he raised an eyebrow, immediately becoming interested.

Xue Jing neither dodged nor avoided, but stood still, his bones trembling violently, emitting a rumbling, muffled sound.

"Seal the Cloud Tail!"

"Bam—!"

Kamen Rider Du Mingluan's head slammed into Xue Jing's chest, sending him staggering backward, his feet carving two deep furrows in the ground that stretched for nearly a hundred meters.

The kinetic energy generated by this extremely strong impact was gradually absorbed and absorbed by Xue Jing's bones during this process...

Xue Jing felt a sharp pain in his chest and raised an eyebrow:

"Very strong... but still a little bit lacking."

He channeled his energy to stop his retreat, and the sound of a dragon's roar resounded within his body.

Carrying the kinetic energy absorbed by Feng Yunwei, Xue Jing forcibly synchronized the operation of the Whirlwind Thunder and the Shaking Star Fire.

Inside the body, various wounds and cracks appeared everywhere. The bones could not bear the weight and fine cracks appeared. The muscles were also torn apart inch by inch.

Carrying the power of three deadly moves, Xue Jing turned around and threw a powerful backhand punch.

"Sealed Cloud Tail - Thunder Flame Boiling Cauldron!"

"boom--!"

Thunder roared, and a powerful punch struck Kamen Rider Du Mingluan.

Xue Jing felt as if he had touched something and felt a slight resistance, while Du Mingluan had already exploded into a bloody mist.

The force of the punch remained undiminished, stirring up the airflow and forming a white, fan-shaped wave of air that spread out and stretched for dozens of meters.

"The triple kill was successfully executed, but it was still somewhat forced..."

Xue Jing, whose body was already battered and bruised, clenched his fists, feeling his near-death state, and muttered to himself.

With a thought, he condensed pixels on his body, restoring him to full health, and then materialized Kamen Rider Du Mingluan.

Then the two of them started fighting.

A dozen minutes later, Xue Jing's clothes were somewhat torn, and he had some minor injuries on his body. Du Mingluan had been chopped into four pieces and scattered on the ground.

"This 'Du Mingluan' combines the advantages of the cockroach monster and himself. He has the explosive power of a hydraulic structure, the tankiness of an exoskeleton, and the ability to exert force and use martial arts killing moves. When combined, 1+1 is far greater than 2... This is interesting."

"Level 7 visualization - true, although it has a prototype basis, it is quite impressive that it can visualize such a non-existent enemy."

"Now we won't have to worry about finding people for real-world training..."

In the following period, Xue Jing began experimenting with various fusion combinations.

Something like combining a dragon with a yin-yang tiger to create a dragon-human who knows kung fu... I must say, the strength is quite high.

However, this fusion function seems to require a huge amount of computation and consumes a lot of mental energy. Xue Jing only played it for half an hour before feeling dizzy and lightheaded.

He exited the consciousness simulation, checked the experience points he had gained on the panel, then closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

……

Three days passed slowly.

During these three days, Xue Jing either accompanied his mother Nan Jiayu and sister Xue Wan shopping, or he was cultivating with Dragon Thunder, or he was fighting against various fused monsters in the consciousness space. His days were quite fulfilling.

Three days later, the New Year's Day holiday ended, and Xue Wan reluctantly left Qingcheng and boarded a ship to Fengcheng... She wouldn't be back until almost three weeks later during the winter vacation.

Mother Nan Jiayu also went away to work again, leaving Xue Jing and the cat alone at home once more.

Ning Fengwan, who had returned to human form after a long absence, was wearing a loose white t-shirt, revealing a pair of long, fair legs. She lay on the sofa watching anime, her phoenix eyes languid and sleepy.

"Teacher Wan, I have to go to the birthday banquet of Zong Jinkui, the former master of the Tiger Soul Dojo... Would you like to come along?"

While changing his clothes, Xue Jing asked casually.

"...No, I'm too sleepy."

Ning Fengwan muttered, turned over, and buried her head in the pillow on the sofa.

Xue Jing walked to her side, patted her head, and whispered:

"Then you should get some sleep, and don't wander around."

“Hmm…” Ning Fengwan responded softly.
