Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

Chapter 152 Amazing Simulated Rewards

[At 38 years old, the grand finale of the Cosmic Genius Battle has finally begun. You and other geniuses, led by a great and immortal being, have been teleported to a vast continent in a virtual universe.]

[After a year of dedicated training, your physical strength has reached 60 times your normal level, and your understanding of the laws of fire has deepened significantly.]

[Under the watchful eyes of millions, over a million geniuses from various cosmic nations entered the Trial Tower arranged by the Virtual Universe Company, and you began your frantic assault on your ranking. A month later, you died and were expelled from the Trial Space.]

You completely ignored the trial tower scores of others and continued to focus on your training.

At 39, your physical strength has reached 62 times your normal level, and you've even touched the threshold of the fundamental laws of space.

After nearly a year of trials, all the geniuses were eliminated from the trial space. Ultimately, your Trial Tower ranking successfully climbed into the top 7300 overall, placing you 943rd and earning you a spot in the arena battle.

[Your friend Hong didn't make it into the top 7300, but because he entered the fundamental law of light, he also joined the forbidden area of ​​the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, the Qianwu Secret Realm. Meanwhile, Luo Feng's Trial Tower level reached second place in the overall universe rankings, directly securing a spot in the top 1000.]

[In the ensuing battle of geniuses, you won both of your matches. However, in the third battle, you encountered an extremely terrifying illusionist.]

[You withstood the illusionary attack of that terrifying illusionist with your astonishing consciousness, shocking many powerful beings. Unfortunately, the opponent's controller was also quite skilled, and after a long battle, you were killed by their psychic weapon!]

After this classic battle, many powerful spectators believed you had reached the top 300 in the entire universe. Unfortunately, no one can change the rules of the Virtual Universe Company, so you, like Hong, could only enter the Qianwu Secret Realm of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom.

Although you did not succeed in becoming a core member of the Virtual Universe Company, your teacher, Jin Guanghou, now values ​​you even more.

In September, you returned to Earth alone from Rhine Star to see Luo Feng off as he was about to depart for the Initial Universe. Afterwards, you and Hong went to the Qianwu Secret Realm to cultivate.

[At 41, you broke through to the first level of the Cosmic level, your physical strength reaching 64 times your normal level. Subsequently, with the help of the nutrient tank provided by the Qianwu Cosmic Kingdom, you smoothly broke through to the ninth level of the Cosmic level.]

[After two years of secluded cultivation in the Qianwu Secret Realm, and with the guidance of your teacher, Jin Guanghou, you have finally successfully crossed the threshold of the fundamental laws of space.]

At 69, you are still a ninth-level cosmic-level being, your physical strength reaching 69 times your normal level.

After eighteen years of dedicated cultivation, your understanding of the laws has finally achieved a tremendous breakthrough.

According to your teacher, Jin Guanghou, you already possess the strength to pass through the first level of the Heavenly Bridge in the virtual universe! Unfortunately, you did not travel to the Initial Universe to study the Chaos Stele, therefore you are unable to attempt the Heavenly Bridge.

Everyone in the Qianwu Secret Realm thinks your progress is incredibly rapid and believes you will become the number one genius in the realm. Many admire you, but many others are also envious.

You suddenly learn that your friend Luo Feng successfully crossed the first level of the Heavenly Bridge more than twenty-five years ago. You finally understand: a slow start leads to a slow finish.

In your quest to catch up with Luo Feng, you finally decide to embark on a life-or-death adventure in a secret realm.

At 73 years old, your physical strength has reached 70 times your normal level, your understanding of the laws has deepened, and your strength has improved slightly.

[While exploring a secret realm, you suddenly encountered a ferocious beast at the ninth level of a domain lord. You used an extremely precious treasure to try and lure it away. However, the beast, which should have been drawn away, continued its pursuit, and ultimately, you were unexpectedly devoured by it.]

[On your deathbed, you finally discover that the ferocious beast was being controlled by someone.]

……

"this……"

Looking at his experience in the simulator, Yang Wu felt quite helpless.

To say that I was not satisfied with this simulation experience would be a lie, after all, I lived longer than in any previous simulation and made the most progress.

Not only did he comprehend the fundamental laws of space, but he also gained the strength to pass through the first level of the Heavenly Bridge.

But he could have done so much better!

With Yang Wu's strength and talent, joining the virtual company in this simulated genius battle finals shouldn't be too difficult!

The problem likely lies in the Trial Tower challenge!

Yang Wu only lasted a month in the simulation before being kicked out of the Trial Tower.

However, the Trial Tower assessment lasted for about a year. This means that the mechanical universe lord responsible for overseeing the virtual universe was unaware of Yang Wu's progress during this final year!

This led to the opponent pairing him, a genius with the potential to break into the top 300, with "Phantom Demon" Galesi in the arena battle.

Yang Wu couldn't think of anything else that could earn him the reputation of "shocking countless powerful beings" except for withstanding Galesi's illusionary attacks.

And Nagalesi truly deserves to be ranked among the top ten geniuses!

Even though his most proficient illusion magic was ineffective against Yang Wu, he was still able to reach the 189th position in the Trial Tower by relying on his mastery of the techniques. Although it was difficult for him to deal with Yang Wu, he still managed to win with great difficulty.

In other words, Yang Wu's loss in the Genius Battle in this simulation was somewhat unjust, but not entirely unjust either.

It was a miscarriage of justice because I didn't show my strongest strength and was matched by the virtual universe with the 'Phantom Demon' Galesi, who was capable of challenging for a spot in the top ten.

It's not unfair, because Yang Wu's understanding of the laws is inferior to that of his opponent!

Even though he managed to block the opponent's strongest illusion attack with his astonishing willpower, he still ultimately fell to his opponent. Even with Yang Wu's top-100 level understanding of the laws, his incredible willpower was enough to defeat Galesi!

As for what happened afterward, Yang Wu didn't care at all.

After this simulation, it's a foregone conclusion that Yang Wu will break into the core of the Virtual Universe Company.

As for who was jealous of him in the Qianwu Secret Realm, and who ultimately controlled the ferocious beast to kill him, there's no need to consider that anymore.

In the future, Yang Wu will have absolutely no interaction with these people.

[The simulation has ended. You can choose one of the following rewards.]

[First, his martial arts cultivation at age 73.]

[Part Two: Martial Arts Insights at Age 73.]

[Part Three: Simulated Life Experiences.]

Soon, the reward option appeared on the simulator.

This time, Yang Wu didn't hesitate at all and directly chose reward two.

"I choose reward two!"

If Yang Wu had chosen reward two, he would immediately become a peerless genius second only to Bolan. Only a fool would choose any other option.

The moment Yang Wu made his choice, countless insights began to surface in his mind, some about the domain of fire, some about power generation techniques, and most importantly, his insights into movement techniques and the fundamental laws of space!

Countless insights kept surfacing in Yang Wu's mind, then merging with his previous insights, until Yang Wu finally accepted and mastered them all.

After Yang Wu had absorbed all the insights, he finally understood just how powerful he truly was.

With his body exerting force, Yang Wu had reached 70 times his normal strength. Such force exertion technique would be among the best even among all the geniuses at the Eternal Star level.

Yang Wu has also cultivated the "Tower of the Void," a secret technique passed down through the Meteorite Star lineage, to the fourth level, the Tower Realm. Although he is currently limited by the Constellation Star consciousness, with his incredibly astonishing willpower, Yang Wu is able to construct the third level of the tower within his sea of ​​consciousness.

Yang Wu has already mastered the first level of the spatial technique "Teleportation," the "Illusory Body," and has begun to cultivate the second level, "Thousand Transformations."

As for his offensive capabilities, Yang Wu's progress has been even more astonishing!

In this simulation, Yang Wu's greatest improvement was not in his power generation skills, spatial laws, or soul defense, but in his understanding of the laws of fire!

Because of Latte, Yang Wu obtained a large number of secret methods for studying the laws of fire from his teacher, Jin Guanghou. In the Qianwu Secret Realm, although there are not many immortals who have comprehended the laws of fire, there are countless realm lords who have been recognized by the original laws of fire.

With the help of numerous secret techniques and the opportunity to discuss with countless realm lords, Yang Wu's understanding of the fundamental laws of fire progressed at an astonishing rate.

In his memory, Yang Wu had already used the incredibly powerful primal force at the cosmic level to unleash the third level of the Overlord Spear technique, "Nine Stars in a Row"!

Although currently limited by the ninth level of the Hengxing realm, it should still be quite easy for him to unleash the second level of the spear technique, "Soul-Chasing Thrust".

This was not the kind of forced performance Luo Feng put on when facing Long Yun in the finals; rather, he had completely mastered the second level of gun technique!

With such formidable strength, Yang Wu was already eagerly anticipating the upcoming battle of the universe's most powerful geniuses.

It can be said that before entering the initial universe, Yang Wu did not have to worry about being surpassed by anyone, including Luo Feng.

Yang Wu can now set his sights on Bolan, who is currently in first place!

Before this simulation, even knowing that he had the help of the simulator, Yang Wu never thought he could surpass Bolan before the final of the Peerless Genius Battle, because that was just too difficult.

He felt that it would be quite good if he could break into the Primordial Secret Realm like Luo Feng. After all, Yang Wu's talent was still somewhat inferior to that of geniuses like Long Yun and Qian Shui.

But now, he suddenly had a sliver of confidence.

If you lack talent, time will make up for it!

With a time simulator at your fingertips, and your own hard work, there's nothing you can't do!

Last month I received 331 monthly votes and 4 extra chapters. Although I still owe a lot, I will definitely make up for it slowly!
