I only want to win over the fairy.

No wonder I'd only seen a few extraterrestrial demons in all those previous simulations, but in these two simulations I saw more than ten each time. So you were the one who let them in? You wouldn't actually be playing some grand scheme like Gui Ming said, would you?

Bai Yi: "..."

That's impossible. As it stands, there's nothing suspicious about Xuanyuan Meng except for her sudden transformation from a Heavenly Dao into a human and her release of extraterrestrial demons into this world.

I hope I'm overthinking it, otherwise...

Once friends are no longer friends, then home will no longer be home, everything will fall apart, and former allies will turn against each other until the end of everything.

[You are extremely tormented by Xuan Yuanmeng's actions, and Xuan Yuanmeng, knowing what you are thinking, hurriedly explains to you that introducing the extraterrestrial demons is only to prevent the supreme beings of the forbidden zone from emerging at will without external enemies. With this extraterrestrial demon force acting as a check, the forbidden zone will be much more peaceful.]

You reluctantly choose to believe this explanation, then ask Xuan Yuanmeng what realm she needs to reach to wield the power of the Heavenly Dao with a human body and free thought. The answer you receive is the power of the five Supreme Beings.

"It will probably require absorbing the power of five ordinary Supreme Beings," Xuan Yuanmeng replied. "I can prevent the power and origin of heaven and earth from returning to the world after their deaths. I can absorb their power and origin after their deaths, using this as a foundation. Finally, relying on the White Emperor Sword as a connection, I can forcibly create the origin of the Heavenly Dao and successfully take over. Then I can openly bypass the original restrictions and grant you great privileges."

[Upon learning this information, you felt that although it was difficult, it wasn't impossible; it just required a lot of time to develop. At the end of the conversation, you asked Xuan Yuanmeng if anyone could potentially wield the power of the Heavenly Dao in human form, or if only Xuan Yuanmeng could. Her answer was as you expected: "Whether it's you or Zi, you both lack the most crucial element. To wield the power of the Heavenly Dao without being assimilated, either your power must surpass the Heavenly Dao, or you yourself must be the Heavenly Dao. There is no third possibility."]

As long as you are still under the rule of Heaven, it is impossible to maintain your identity in the torrent of Heaven. The final outcome is either you become Heaven or Heaven becomes you, and in either case, you will never be the original you.

Xuan Yuanmeng was well aware of this. Even someone as powerful as Bai Yi's daughter, Yu Gongyi, inevitably became the Heavenly Dao after replacing her.

At that time, no one could say for sure whether Yuujiu I was Yuujiu I or Tendou, because there was no one close to her who could tell her if she was still herself.

Xuan Yuanmeng did indeed have her own selfish motives and a plan that she hadn't told Bai Yi. However, the reason for all of this was simply that someone had completely disrupted her plan first.

Of course, whether or not she succeeds in what she wants to do will not have much impact on Bai Yi, and may even be of great help.

—Are you willing to believe me, or do you harbor greed towards me, wanting to replace me? And can you maintain your integrity amidst the torrent of fate...?

After choosing to bid farewell to Bai Yi, Xuan Yuanmeng plans to focus her remaining action points on the ancient demon race.

The human identity she chose was of the Xuanyuan bloodline, belonging to the lineage of the Human Emperor. She was born with the fortune of a true dragon, and with this characteristic, the fortune of the ancient demon race was naturally within her reach.

She had just finished planning her next move when an unexpected event occurred. Immediately afterward, a beautiful character portrait appeared, along with a portrait of the guy she particularly disliked.

"You, who clearly possess the Heavenly Way and control everything in the world, should be free from desires and look upon all things in the world with equanimity like a god. Yet now you act like a human, resorting to petty and underhanded tricks."

"What exactly is your purpose? What do you want to achieve with him? Or did you reincarnate as a human truly to assist him, rather than harboring other motives?"

"I don't care what your purpose is for you or what you want to do, but if you endanger him, I will not hesitate to kill you and take your place."

Pshaw, all you can do is talk the talk.

Xuanyuan Meng had no good feelings towards Zi. According to her original plan, Guimingtian should have been completely wiped out. The origin of the dead Supreme and the power of heaven and earth should have been in her hands, allowing her to directly pass through her childhood and obtain about 20% of the Heavenly Dao's authority.

As a result, this guy unexpectedly encountered Bai Yi, directly gaining self-awareness and a soul, and later even gaining a physical body and real life, rendering her original backup plan useless.

If it weren't for you, Bai Yi and I would have already been slaughtering everyone by now!

What are you barking like a dog?

You said you'd do this or that to me if I harmed him, but in the end, it was you, the puppet, who forced him to confront the Supreme Being and dragged his body to such a state.

You have completely crippled my strongest backup plan, cut off my chance to gain power in a short time, and even crippled my strongest ally. You have wiped out my own people in one fell swoop.

"Puppet, watch your attitude. You are a product of my creation, your existence meant to sacrifice everything for him and me. Yet you have crippled both of us. If you will be killed if you harm him, then I suggest you commit suicide immediately." Xuan Yuanmeng's tone was icy.

"I don't exist for you," Zi said calmly. "He's the one who gave me my soul and life, not you. It's my fault that he's so weak, and I'll naturally try my best to make it up to him. Even if he wanted my life, I would give it to him without hesitation. But you, your purpose seems to be much more complicated than it appears. You possess the power of the Heavenly Dao, that's fine, but I'm curious why you specifically chose the Xuanyuan bloodline when you were reincarnated as a human, and why you carry that unique True Dragon aura. You wouldn't be planning to seize the Human Emperor's Sword, would you?"

[The power of Heaven can seize the White Emperor Sword, while Xuanyuan's inherent True Dragon Luck undoubtedly corresponds to the Human Emperor Sword. The power you meticulously prepared makes Zi extremely suspicious; your purpose from the very beginning was to seize Bai Yi's body and power.]

What a joke!

If it weren't for you, would I be using this backup plan that could potentially lead to a complete break with someone?

She worked so hard to help Bai Yi, all for the sake of a better future for this world. If it weren't for her, Gui Ming would never have been able to be locked up, and even with enough power from heaven and earth, it would have been impossible to continuously open the path to becoming an emperor. It can be said that without her invincible assistance, many things would not have been possible.

As for you, if this weren't just a simulation, I would have killed you with a single sword strike when Bai Yi wasn't looking, so you wouldn't be here causing trouble for everyone and not fulfilling your responsibilities.

Damn it, the bomb I created suddenly developed its own consciousness and said it didn't want to explode anymore, and even wanted human rights. Then, by some twist of fate, it gained a body and a life, messing up my plans. Now it's even turning on me. Does it really think I have a good temper?

"Fight! Fight! You two hurry up and kill each other! I love seeing you two so eager to kill each other!"

Just as the two of you were about to draw your swords, a voice that sounded incredibly irritating rang out.

[With a collar on her head, Gui Ming, her power and freedom restricted, frantically fanned the flames at the two of you, eager to see you both bleed to pieces.]

Chapter 143 Flesh and Blood Suffering, Mechanical Ascension

There will always be people who enjoy stirring up trouble.

Gui Ming had absolutely no goodwill towards Xuan Yuanmeng and Zi, and even harbored great hatred for them. So when she saw the two of them fighting, she naturally hoped that they would quickly clash, preferably to the point of bloodshed.

Especially Zi, if this guy dies quickly, Bai Yi won't be able to create that Link 6 thing. He just needs to recover faster than Zi to get rid of this collar.

When that time comes, I will make sure the sky can no longer block my view!

"If you ask me, all you can do is talk. You need to really fight. Ideally, you should take turns slashing each other, leaving a gaping hole. If you can't bring yourselves to it, I can do it for you. Although my strength has greatly diminished, I'm still a Supreme Being; slashing you is a piece of cake." Gui Ming attempted to act as a second, ready to disembowel the two of them.

You and Zi both remain silent.

[Gui Ming, oblivious to the atmosphere, continued to fan the flames: "Don't worry, don't worry. If you're worried about causing someone to die and being hated or despised by that guy, I can provide after-sales service. With my strength, it's quite easy for me to make you suffer hundreds of cuts and still survive."]

Is this guy an idiot?

Xuanyuan Meng really didn't expect that such a bizarre person as Guiming would appear in the Supreme Realm. The dignified Supreme Realm was actually stirring up trouble here, and doing so without any skill whatsoever.

Or did Bai Yi's sword strike not only corrupt her and reduce her strength by more than half, but also cut off her intelligence?

Let's teach this guy a lesson and make him remember it. How dare he be so arrogant with just some grain reserves!

You silently drew your sword.

Ten minutes later, the incredibly arrogant ancient supreme being Guiming continued to utter "Guiming" sounds from his throat, lying on the ground in the most shameful posture, his pupils rolled back, saliva constantly dripping from the corners of his mouth, and champagne spraying three meters high like a fountain.

Is my tribulation lightning really that powerful?

Xuan Yuanmeng was utterly shocked. She had only manipulated the power of the Heavenly Dao to release a few lightning tribulations on Gui Ming, so why was this guy reacting so strongly?

Furthermore, one must say that he truly deserves to be called a supreme being who has mastered the laws of darkness and water.

There's so much water here.

"However, I remember that Gui Ming was not present in the last simulation at all, but he suddenly appeared in this simulation. And Kitazawa, who was supposed to be responsible for activating Azusa, has disappeared without a trace. As expected, plans can never keep up with changes."

"I originally intended to give the world some breathing room, to allow them to become stronger, so that they could fight against the True Immortals from the outer realms."

"It seems best to leave it at that."

"Let's make this simulation a little more aggressive."

Heaven creates all things to nourish humankind, yet people still complain that Heaven is unkind.

Unaware that locusts ravage the land, causing immense suffering to the people and even to the king's subjects. Human beings are born into different classes, but the noble are always favored by Heaven.

Suddenly a madman sharpens his knife in the night, the imperial star flickers and Mars shines high. From this day forward, the world will be turned upside down; why hesitate to kill?

The ancient demon race can be killed! The nine great immortal sects can be killed!

The extraterrestrial demons say they can be killed! The forbidden zone of life says they can be killed!

Those who defy Heaven will die whether they stand or kneel!

Kill! Kill! Kill!

Since the original backup plan is no longer needed, there is no need to rely on others. I will naturally slaughter everything in the world and make all the world's power belong to me.

Unlike Bai Yi's idea of ​​only killing enemies, Xuan Yuanmeng wanted to kill all the useless cultivators, so that all their power would return to the world. It was for this reason that she did not choose to tell Bai Yi about her plan.

Because once Bai Yi knows her true thoughts, there will only be one outcome: swords drawn. Although this is exactly what she needs, it is far from the point where the two need to fight, so she cannot reveal her purpose yet.

In the first stage, it's indeed best to seize the fortune of the ancient demon race first, and then go to the Human Emperor's Palace to take that thing.

[In February of the year 1146 of the Myriad Immortals Calendar, the last remaining ancient demon race completely declared their allegiance to the human race. Taking advantage of this opportunity, you devoured the fortune of the ancient demon race and thus became the possessor of the human race's fortune.]

[Bearing the bloodline of Xuanyuan, possessing the fortune of a true dragon, and having devoured the fortune of an ancient demon race, you have caught the attention of the Human Emperor's Palace. The Palace Master, Si Zhou, personally sought you out. After a conversation with you, he was astonished by your extraordinary talent and believed you to be the reincarnation of the Xuanyuan Emperor. He resolved to bring you back to the Human Emperor's Palace to nurture you properly.]

You have joined the Human Emperor's Palace and gained the recognition of many past Human Emperors in the Ancestral Temple.

[You have obtained the "Proof of the Human Emperor," becoming the recognized Human Emperor of this era, the sovereign of humanity, and the current ruler of heaven and earth.]

[Achievement Completed: Crowned Emperor of Humanity.]

The reason why Xuanyuan Meng chose Xuanyuan as her surname and identity is largely due to the "Proof of the Human Emperor" and her status as the current leader and ruler of heaven and earth.

The Proof of the Human Emperor is an extremely special item. It represents the recognition of you by many previous Human Emperors, and this recognition will allow some of the souls left behind by these previous Human Emperors in the Ancestral Temple to become your power and be used by you in battle.

In addition, the existence of these previous emperors further constrained the blessing of fortune that the current emperor could obtain.

Because each previous human emperor carried a portion of the human emperor's fortune, but they did not die completely, instead entering the ancestral temple, subsequent human emperors could not obtain much of the fortune's blessing. Therefore, they could not obtain the unique status of the ruler of heaven and earth.

As the current rulers of the world, the human race has gained benefits far beyond simply occupying the most resource-rich region of the Nine Provinces.

Increased fertility, a greater likelihood of producing exceptionally gifted offspring, and enhanced environmental adaptability, among other factors.

As the leader of the human race and the current ruler of heaven and earth, the Human Emperor receives tremendous benefits. For example, when he is in the position of Human Emperor, he will receive the blessing of fortune, which will improve all his attributes. He will also have a chance to obtain a weapon that is unique to the human race and is formed from their fortune. In addition to having many effects, this weapon has a terrifying power that even a peak emperor would have to temporarily avoid when it is fully unleashed.

As for minor issues such as becoming the Human Emperor and not being able to easily commit suicide, they are not worth worrying about at all.

However, to truly obtain this position, one must gain the approval of more than half of the previous emperors in the ancestral temple of the Human Emperor Palace.

The problem is that gaining the approval of all the previous emperors in the ancestral temple is no easy task. This has led to almost no one knowing about this information. Even many emperors are unaware that only by gathering all the approvals can one truly become an emperor and obtain so many benefits.

As far as she knew, for nearly a thousand or even ten thousand years, no one had been able to pass all the trials of the previous Human Emperors and complete the [Proof of the Human Emperor], including Bai Yi and Yu Gongyi.

Bai Yi was completely unaware of this matter; to him, the position of the Human Emperor was merely a symbol. Yu Gongyi, on the other hand, arrogantly declared that the previous Human Emperors could only serve as her attendants, but was rejected for disrespecting her teacher.

This position is completely dispensable in the eyes of Bai Yi and Yu Gongyi, but in the hands of this Heavenly Dao, the power she can exert is far beyond the understanding of ordinary people. For example, the souls and bodies left behind by the previous Human Emperors will be completely resurrected in her hands!

Among the heavenly tribulations, there is one called the Emperor Tribulation. This tribulation is formed by the imprint left between heaven and earth by those who once attained the Dao and became emperors. To overcome this tribulation, one must fight against the imprints left by the emperors who once attained the Dao and underwent tribulations in this world. Through these imprints, as well as these souls and bodies, one will gain a great deal of combat power.

However, the prerequisite is that you must have enough Heavenly Dao power to open the back door in the lightning tribulation and obtain some administrator privileges.

Looking at the attribute panels of the previous emperors that she had collected, Xuan Yuanmeng sighed helplessly.

To be honest, she didn't really want to use these outdated guys. After all, the real emperors who were capable enough to suppress the current emperors all went to conquer forbidden zones when they were dying or in their prime. Not to mention leaving behind complete bodies, even their souls were shattered beyond repair. How could they possibly leave behind souls that could live for so long and reside in the ancestral temple of the emperor's palace to protect future generations?

Rather than protecting future generations, it was more like leaving a contingency plan for his family's bloodline.

This can be seen from the fact that when members of their clan participated in the "Proof of the Human Emperor," they were able to pass the test easily and obtain a great deal of benefits.

Those who truly deserve the title of Emperor are almost all buried in the forbidden zone of life.

"Why did it have to come to this...?"
