Fifth Simulation Begins

A flurry of hurried footsteps echoed through the passage.

Wang Kun appeared at the end of the passage.

His eyes went wide with rage as he took in Wang Yuanyi's wretched state.

"Yuanyi!!"

Then Wang Kun noticed He Yu standing calmly opposite him.

Wang Kun's eyelids twitched, understanding that He Yu was likely responsible for Wang Yuanyi's condition.

But he couldn't be bothered to figure out He Yu's strength, nor did he care to fight He Yu.

His eyes bloodshot, he immediately used his movement technique to rush into the passage, rapidly approaching Wang Yuanyi.

Wang Kun reached Wang Yuanyi's side, picked him up, and retreated back into the secret chamber.

The thick, sturdy stone walls on both sides of the passage were still closing rapidly.

At the last moment, Wang Kun carried Wang Yuanyi back into the secret chamber.

Relief washed over the faces of the father and son.

As long as they retreated into the secret chamber, they could exit through another route.

They believed they were safe.

Wang Yuanyi glared venomously at He Yu at the other end of the passage.

"He Yu! I won't let you get away with this!!"

Wang Kun also wore a grave expression, carefully scrutinizing He Yu.

The stone walls on both sides of the passage continued to close, now with less than half a foot remaining, about to shut completely.

Wang Yuanyi sneered, wanting to utter more threats.

Suddenly, both he and Wang Kun felt themselves locked onto by a powerful aura!

The Wang family father and son were simultaneously startled.

Before they could react, two ghostly streams of True Qi shot from the other end of the passage.

He Yu had been accumulating these two streams of True Qi for a long time, and even a Bone Tempering peak martial artist would be unable to withstand them.

Not to mention Wang Kun, who was only at the initial stage of Bone Tempering.

The Wang family father and son sensed the danger, but there was no time to dodge.

In the next instant, both of their heads suddenly exploded!

Red and white matter splattered everywhere.

Their bodies fell to the ground simultaneously, twitching a few times before dying completely.

The stone walls on both sides of the passage closed completely, leaving not a single gap.

Their corpses remained forever behind the thick stone walls.

"Villains die from talking too much; the ancients never deceive me." He Yu said calmly.

With the Wang family father and son dealt with, there wasn't a single living person left in the Golden Saber Academy.

Afterward, He Yu wandered around the Golden Saber Academy, putting all the corpses into his space.

Corpses, as inanimate objects, could be put into the space, but living people could not.

He Yu then cleaned up the traces at the scene.

Even if outsiders entered the Golden Saber Academy, they would only think that everyone in the Golden Saber Academy had vanished into thin air.

They wouldn't immediately suspect that the Golden Saber Academy had been wiped out.

Duan Qian's strength was still unclear, and He Yu needed to hide himself as much as possible.

With this done, even if Duan Qian's side investigated, it would take time, and He Yu would be temporarily safe.

It would also buy him time to simulate.

Once he simulated several thousand or tens of thousands of times, he would have enough power.

At that time, any plots and schemes could be smashed to pieces with a single saber strike in the face of absolute power!

"He Yu, I'm rooting for you!" He Yu cheered himself on.

He Yu also carefully searched the entire Golden Saber Academy, wanting to find evidence of Wang Kun and Zhang Hongwen's human trafficking transactions.

But He Yu searched the Golden Saber Academy several times, and didn't even find a suspicious piece of paper.

"Could it be that Wang Kun put it in the underground secret chamber of the Scripture Pavilion?"

He Yu thought it was very possible.

He Yu returned to the entrance of the secret chamber.

The thick stone walls were built with special materials, making them extremely sturdy and heavy.

There was no way to easily break them open.

He Yu could force his way through, but the noise would be too loud and would inevitably arouse suspicion.

He Yu thought for a moment.

He suddenly remembered that Wang Kun had retreated back into the secret chamber, not outwards.

This meant there must be another exit in the secret chamber, which also meant there was another entrance!

He Yu immediately searched the Golden Saber Academy.

He actually found the entrance in a dry well.

"Not bad, a sly rabbit has three burrows!"

He Yu carefully entered the secret chamber.

Sure enough, he found the ledger of the human trafficking transactions.

It recorded the detailed information and transaction prices of the people sent by the Golden Saber Academy.

He Yu also searched for his own name.

"There's no record of my identity in the Golden Saber Academy. It's impossible for Duan Qian to find me."

He Yu packed all the ledgers into his space and took them away.

He also put the bodies of the Wang family father and son into the space.

After everything was taken care of, He Yu left through the back door at night.

He Yu took advantage of the night to find a deserted area more than eighty miles north of Xian'an City.

The surrounding area of more than ten miles was uninhabited.

He Yu dug a large pit, threw all the corpses of the Golden Saber Academy into it, and set it on fire!

Can't find the book by name? Try searching by author! Maybe the name has just been changed!

After all the bodies were carbonized, He Yu filled in the pit.

He Yu also dug up some topsoil from other places and spread it over the filled pit.

The surface of the pit became indistinguishable from ordinary wasteland.

"I'm so touched, I'm just too cautious!"

He Yu left the place.

He Yu found an inn nearby and took an ordinary room to stay in.

He Yu sat on the chair: "Now it should be safe. It's time to explore Duan Qian's background."

He Yu couldn't just recklessly charge in, so he chose to explore in the Simulator.

In fact, the simulation time is only a moment in reality.

He Yu didn't need to run away; he could directly simulate in the Golden Saber Academy.

But he didn't feel safe staying there.

He could die infinitely in the simulation, but he couldn't make a single mistake in reality.

He had to be cautious, cautious, and even more cautious.

He Yu calmed his mind and started the fourth simulation.

[You have entered the simulation]
[You leave the inn and head to Duan Qian's house]
[One month later, you find Duan Qian's mansion]
[You observe Duan Qian for three consecutive months]
[You don't find anything unusual about him]
[You also don't find any martial artists stronger than you in his mansion]
[This day, you finally can't help it]
[You sneak into Duan Qian's mansion late at night]
[You feel your way to the roof of Duan Qian's room]
[You lie on the roof and observe for half an hour]
[After confirming there is no danger, you slip into Duan Qian's room through the window]
[Duan Qian and his wife are sleeping soundly]
[Your Soul Awakening Saber flashes, and you suddenly strike]
[You slash out with your saber]
[But the scene you imagined, where Duan Qian is instantly cut in two, does not appear]
[Instead, you feel your world spin]
[You actually see your own chest, then down to your abdomen, knees, and shoes]

[You finally saw your own headless corpse fall to the ground with a crash]

[You vaguely heard a low voice: "Been waiting for you for a long time!"]

[The lights went out in your world]

[You are dead]

[End of this simulation]

He Yu, sitting in a chair at the inn, snapped back to reality.

"So strong!!"

The aura of death still lingered in He Yu's mind.

In the simulation, He Yu didn't even notice the person who attacked; he was instantly separated into two pieces.

The attacker was countless times stronger than He Yu.

He Yu hadn't expected that Duan Qian would have someone under him who could instantly kill him.

Now, He Yu in the early stage of Marrow Cleansing could kill Essence Refining martial artists above his level.

So, the person who could instantly kill He Yu must at least be a Transformation Dragon martial artist.

Perhaps even a Grandmaster or Apex Grandmaster!

But, was He Yu afraid?

He was indeed a little afraid...

After all, this wasn't a simulation; if he died, he would really die.

He Yu knew he had to improve his strength as soon as possible.

Although he had erased all traces of himself related to the Golden Saber Academy.

But if Duan Qian discovered that the people from the Golden Saber Academy had disappeared, he would definitely investigate thoroughly.

Maybe Duan Qian would still find out about He Yu, and then he would be done for.

"Duan Qian's backing is someone you can't afford to provoke; with that level of expert protecting him, no one can kill him."

He Yu decided not to touch Duan Qian for the time being.

He would proceed with the fifth simulation first.

Improving his strength and having the ability to protect himself was the most important thing.

"Simulator, start again!!"

[You have entered the simulation]

[You stayed in the inn for a month]

[During this time, you cultivated the Heavenly Desire Formless Skill from the peak of Bone Tempering to the early stage of Marrow Cleansing]

[The Desolate Heaven Saber Art and Heavenly Desire Formless Skill, both sect-level techniques, have reached the early stage of Marrow Cleansing]

[You have discovered that Qi and Blood Pills no longer have an auxiliary effect on your cultivation]

[You can only use Inner Divinity Pills for cultivation]

[But Inner Divinity Pills cannot be bought with money like Qi and Blood Pills]

[The stock of Inner Divinity Pills is scarce and priceless]

[You can't find a place to buy them even if you have money]

[Although you have quite a few Inner Divinity Pills on you, there will always be a day when they run out]

[You must obtain more Inner Divinity Pills]
