Simulating the primordial era? That's way too extreme.

Chapter 104 Four-Wheel Simulation

Jin Bing is dead.

From this day forward, in the hearts of the demon race of the Second Primordial Era, this wicked and monstrous false emperor of the Human Court has truly closed his coffin and will never return...

This was naturally a cause for celebration, as it brought an end to the false emperor who was barely surviving in the fragments of the primordial world. The demon race joyfully surrounded the "little hero," praising his achievements as worthy of being recorded in history!

The young hero scratched his head sheepishly and smiled, then used the stolen Golden Crow Fire to burn the false emperor's corpse into nothingness.

Having done all this, the young hero, who did good deeds anonymously, solemnly bid farewell to everyone, saying that his mission was complete and it was time to go back and report.

Having said that, he vanished into thin air, eliciting gasps of amazement and admiration from the demons.

"I wonder which master this righteous man is from, that he possesses such a magical treasure... It must be a primordial spiritual treasure!"

"Who cares!"

The demon cursed repeatedly:

"We've finally killed this false emperor; it's time to go back and report."

"Right, right! Let's hurry up and leave. This place is completely deserted, even the spiritual energy is incredibly thin. After staying here for a few days, I feel like my cultivation has stalled..."

"Let's go, let's go..."

A group of grumbling demons hurriedly followed the purple light they had come from and headed back. Before long, there was hardly any living creature left on the entire fragment of the primordial world...

After a long while, the "little hero" who had just displayed his great power suddenly returned to the same spot.

"They're finally gone!"

Looking at the empty world without a single demon, Zhao Si breathed a sigh of relief. The mental anguish he had suffered since the invasion of the Primordial World immediately subsided!

It's not that he has a bad mentality, but rather that the original-level prize he finally obtained has fallen into the hands of the enemy. Anyone would be affected in that situation.

But now it's all over, they've all left.

Recalling Jin Bing's sudden annihilation, Zhao Si sighed inwardly:

Lao Bing, you deserve to die...

All of the above was, naturally, another idea that Jin Bing gave him:

Although this fragment of the primordial world is of a high level, it actually contains nothing of value, and even spiritual energy is pitifully scarce. Any demon with a sound mind would not abandon the resource-rich primordial world to settle in this godforsaken place.

Therefore, when they first arrived here, they were probably just sent in by the Dao Ancestor to explore, rather than as a malicious intruder.

The reason why Zhao Si later chose to settle down here and even called for the possible "Jin Bing" to be killed was actually his own problem.

If he hadn't prematurely revealed the pseudo-emperor's signature Golden Crow Fire, causing the demons to mistakenly believe that "Jin Bing" was not dead, he wouldn't have attracted their special attention at all.

Therefore, to solve the problem of the demon race's invasion, there is no need to actually fight them out. All we need to do is let them see the scene of "Jin Bing being killed," and then they will naturally have no reason to stay any longer.

In order to help "another version of himself" solve his troubles, and also to resolve a knot in his heart from his past life, Kim Byung chooses to sacrifice himself:

If you want to see me die, then I'll die right here!

And so, this charade he and Zhao Si put on together came about...

"After many twists and turns, we finally managed to get this top-tier prize back."

Zhao Si sighed:

Although this fragment of the primordial world has little value to the demon race of the primordial world, it is an excellent private space for me, where I can do whatever I want, which is much freer than in the real world.

Of course, it's not entirely free, because...

Zhao Si looked up at the sky, where the magnificent purple light, resembling the aurora borealis, still lingered, indicating that the fragments of the primordial world were still being invaded by the Hongjun Heavenly Dao in the Second Primordial World.

"This thing, I'll have to handle it myself..."

……

Back in his rented room, Zhao Si, in high spirits, eagerly pulled out a thick stack of papers. They were all written in demonic script, each character exuding an air of solemnity and dignity.

This is the biggest gain that Kim Byung brought him this time:

"Authentic Immortal Techniques!"

That's right, this is a cultivation technique that Jin Bing specially chose for him!

"Let's begin training!"

Unable to resist the allure of immortal techniques any longer, Zhao Si immediately began practicing. Holding his breath and concentrating, he absorbed innate spiritual energy into his body according to the method, and soon entered a meditative state...

Cultivating immortality makes one oblivious to the passage of time.

When Zhao Si opened his eyes again, he had already achieved mastery of Qi cultivation!

Although it is far from meeting the standards for becoming an immortal, it has officially transcended the mortal realm.

【Ding! 】

Just as Zhao Si woke up, his phone beeped. Curious, he picked it up and looked at it:

[The system has detected that the player has officially entered the path of cultivation. This system will be updated, adding some new features. The update is expected to take 24 hours. During the update, players are free to go out and arrange their free time as they wish...]

"Huh? Another update?"

Zhao Si was stunned for a moment. Weren't the previous updates all because they were updated after obtaining some high-level prizes in the game?

"How come starting to cultivate immortality triggers an update this time?"

Completely baffled by this inexplicable mechanism, Zhao Si could only let things take their course, but he sighed somewhat:

"Jin Bing's stay was too short. Otherwise, after today's update, I could have taken him out shopping and out for a meal..."

With a sigh, Zhao Si got up and opened the door to her long-closed rented room, intending to go out and get something to eat. Although she could already abstain from grains thanks to the power of spiritual energy, eating was still a pleasure...

The world outside the door was already at night, and the city under the night sky had a dreamlike beauty.

Zhao Si, who hadn't been out to look at the sky for a long time, looked at the modern city lights and then thought of the three-generation Heavenly Emperor Jin Bing and the two-generation primordial demon race he had seen before, and felt a sense of temporal and spatial dislocation.

With a sudden, inexplicable feeling, Zhao Si took a step forward.

They ate and drank, then went home to practice immortal arts; the details of the process are self-evident...

……

The next day.

After practicing Qi all day, Zhao Si woke up in bed and, sensing the increasingly powerful magical energy within his body, was quite satisfied.

[Ding! Update complete!]

"Perfect timing! Looks like I timed it well..."

Feeling refreshed and full of energy, Zhao Si picked up the phone and asked with great interest:

"So, what's new in this update?"

[Ding! Since the player has achieved a perfect ending as the protagonist Jin Bing, Jin Bing will not die again. Furthermore, since the player has embarked on the path of cultivation, the system has determined that you are qualified to enter the next chapter.]

Therefore, starting from this round of simulation, the "Demon Clan Massacre Incident" chapter will no longer be told from Jin Bing's perspective, and some aspects of the gameplay will also change...

"Oh? So you mean the map changes after clearing the level?"

Zhao Si asked curiously:

"I didn't just get through the [massacre event] this time; to be honest, I completed the entire subsequent storyline of the prehistoric world. The Lich King, Investiture of the Gods, Journey to the West... all of that is gone. What kind of map are you going to give me now?"

This made Zhao Si curious. With the Six Holy Gods Chosen Golden Emperor in power, the original Lich War was gone, and the Investiture of the Gods and Journey to the West had no basis for existence.

If the map were changed, without considering parallel worlds, the only possible scenarios would be something like "The White Snake Floods Jinshan Temple" or even "The Era of the Sword Immortals of Shushan," which are just a hodgepodge of plots forcibly stitched into the prehistoric world system!

Anyway, there's not much more of the prehistoric storyline left for Zhao Si...

[The system cannot reveal any details; players will find out by playing a game themselves.]

"Tch! Still trying to be mysterious!"

Zhao Si pursed her lips, then carefully examined the phone:

The game interface now has two squares, one of which reads "Demon Clan Massacre Incident" and is marked "Perfectly Completed".

The other one was blank, with only the words "New Chapter" on it.

Zhao Sixian clicked on the chapter titled "The Massacre":

[The Golden Emperor is reviewing memorials...]

[The Golden Emperor is teaching Xuandu a lesson...]

[The Golden Emperor is reviewing memorials...]

【…】

Well, the days of fighting and killing are over. Jin Bing, the Heavenly Emperor, now spends his days working overtime and disciplining Xuan Du...

"It's a peaceful life, I suppose."

Zhao Si sighed, then curiously clicked into the new chapter:

[Ding! You have completed the previous chapter, so you are eligible for system benefits in this chapter. You can choose any one of the following options as your starting identity!]

"Oh? You can choose your starting role?!"

Zhao Si's face lit up with joy:

The three simulations in the previous chapter all started with Jin Bing, an unknown little dragon of the second-class dragon clan in the East Sea. Because the starting point was too low, he died quite a lot in the early stages while exploring the way.

The little dragon himself is not very good, and the help his family can provide is pitifully little. His biological mother doesn't love him in any way, his biological father cuts ties with him in various ways, and although he has a lot of brothers and sisters, they are many but useless.

The enemy, on the other hand, has always been an invincible mechanical deity, with the Heavenly Court, the Heavenly Emperor, the Sage, and the Heavenly Dao all being more and more heaven-defying than the last!

By the time Jin Bing establishes his information advantage and truly begins to exert his power, it will already be the second playthrough, and by the time he reaches the finale, it will be the third playthrough!

In short, his background made his start in the game incredibly difficult.

It's great that we can choose for ourselves now!

"What are the options?"

Zhao Si asked curiously.

[A: An old tree on a mountain in the Eastern Wilderness. B: A stubborn rock on a mountain in the Western Wilderness. C: A water turtle in a body of water in the Northern Wilderness. D: A small bird beneath a volcano in the Southern Wilderness.]

[Your choice: (?)]
