Simulation: Wood Spirit Emperor

"Clone!"

Upon seeing this innate secret technique, Han Han had already made up his mind to seize the body of the Wood Spirit Emperor.

As the saying goes.

One's own innate secret techniques might be mediocre, but as long as the clone is chosen well, it amounts to the same thing; furthermore, the clone technique not only provides other powerful innate secret techniques, but it also maximizes one's survivability.

After the metamorphosis.

The Wood Spirit Emperor was no longer just a support unit; it was a three-in-one lifeform capable of acting as its own support, tank, and marksman.

Moreover, the resurrection secret technique was also incredibly powerful. Even though it could only restore one percent and only worked on oneself, some battles were decided by such a tiny margin.

In short.

The Wood Spirit Emperor perfectly met Han Han's expectations.

[Not only that, you feel that your comprehension of the laws far exceeds that of your human body. By seizing the Wood Spirit Emperor, you have absolute confidence in becoming a disciple of the Ganwu Universe Master.]

[At 41 years old, you enter the Initial Universe.]

[The Ganwu Universe Master told you that the Chaos City Leader would monitor every lifeform entering the Initial Universe, but since your soul would not change after the body seizure, he told you not to worry.]

[The Chaos City Leader has taken notice of you.]

[He discovered your Locke Divine Water, your plant lifeforms, and even that surviving Wood Spirit.]

[He was somewhat surprised, but since this was your own fortuitous encounter and, in his view, only of medium quality—not particularly precious—he lost interest once he confirmed you were human.]

[In appearance, the Wood Spirit Emperor is extremely similar to a branch of the Winged Human Race. If not for its genetic level and innate secret techniques, it would not be impossible to classify it as part of the human race.]

[The news of your body seizure is known to very few.]

[You choose to reside in a small building where the wood and space law patterns are relatively distinct, and you select the Mother Ancestor Chaos Tablet as your primary tablet for study.]

[You clear five levels of the Heavenly Bridge in succession, attracting the attention of many Immortals in Chaos City.]

[Under normal circumstances, many King Rank Immortals would be interested in taking you as a disciple, but the Ganwu Universe Master had already expressed his intent. In the face of such an ancient Universe Venerable, their strength seemed insufficient.]

[Thanks to the Wood Spirit Emperor, your progress is extremely rapid.]

[At 72 years old, with nearly one-third of your study time elapsed, you clear the seventh level of the Heavenly Bridge and will soon receive the highest recognition of the Wood Origin Law.]

[The Ganwu Universe Master accepts you as a named disciple, promising to take you as a personal disciple once you break through to become a World Lord.]

[At this moment, you possess a substantial background.]

"A disciple of the Ganwu Universe Master—even just a named disciple—means that even invincible King Ranks would never dare to touch me. This is the power of a background!" Han Han felt a faint sense of excitement in his heart.

The Locke Divine Water could finally be exposed!

Once he possessed a large number of Immortal plant lifeforms, his strength would reach a terrifying level.

[You inform the Ganwu Universe Master of the changes in the Wood Spirit.]

[The Ganwu Universe Master is amazed by your opportunity, surprised that you were able to obtain such a vast amount of Locke Divine Water and even more surprised that it triggered the metamorphosis of the Wood Spirit.]

[He asks if you are willing to hand over the evolution method.]

[You are certainly willing; after all, there is only one Wood Spirit Emperor left, and other Wood Spirits can only raise their genes to 100 times even after absorbing enough Locke Divine Water.]

[The Ganwu Universe Master asks what reward you desire.]

[After thinking it over, you express that you want materials for powerful special plant lifeforms. After all, this evolution method has significant limitations, and the actual reward would not be overly generous, so it is better to save yourself the trouble of searching for materials for powerful plant lifeforms in the future.]

[The Ganwu Universe Master tells you to wait.]

[To cultivate the Wood Spirit Emperor, your Locke Divine Water is estimated to be worth only 3 billion Hunyuan Units, but this is still a massive fortune that many King Ranks would envy.]

[You sell half of it.]

[After obtaining a large amount of wealth, you begin to cultivate the Spirit Silk Grass. As for the Iron Vine Grass and Gold Wood Grass, you delay their cultivation because they lack a clear path to breakthrough to Immortal, so it is better to purchase other plant lifeforms to cultivate.]

[You purchase a Cloud-Touching Vine seedling.]

[Unfortunately, due to the Locke Divine Water, the quality of your Spirit Silk Grass is extremely high, with the worst ones being Thousand Silk, so you can only choose it for 1.5 billion Hunyuan Units, and only one plant at that.]

[You are cultivating one Thousand Silk Immortal Spirit Silk Grass.]

[You are cultivating one 216-vine Cloud-Touching Vine.]

[At 120 years old, you clear the eighth level of the Heavenly Bridge and receive the recognition of the Wood Origin Law. Thanks to the 10x reward for clearing the first eight levels, you receive 255,000 points.]

[Unfortunately, one cannot break through to Immortal in the Initial Universe, so your plant lifeforms have not yet attempted their breakthrough.]

[During this period, you hunt Chaos Beasts and discover that the Chaos True Spirit has almost negligible effects on the metamorphosis of your soul. You suspect this is because you seized the body of the Wood Spirit Emperor.]

[At 130 years old, your Falling Wood Seven Kill Blade reaches perfection, and your force reaches the limit of 100 times.]

[At 141 years old, before leaving the Initial Universe, you intend to challenge the Heavenly Bridge one last time, but unfortunately, you are still one step short, mainly because the Heavenly Bridge only tests law comprehension.]

[You head to the Primal Secret Realm.]

[You must begin cultivating Immortal plant lifeforms.]

[There are two plans, both with a success rate of only 50%, but due to the Locke Divine Water, their actual breakthrough success rate should be between 70-80%.]

[Unfortunately.]

[Your Cloud-Touching Vine failed to break through, and only the Spirit Silk Grass successfully reached the Immortal level and condensed an Undying Body.]

[You feel a massive loss, thinking that if you had known, you would have cultivated the 108-vine Cloud-Touching Vine which had a higher success rate, but unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in this world for you.]

[The Ganwu Universe Master learns that you have cultivated a Marquis Rank Spirit Silk Grass and changes your training plan.]

[At 142 years old, under the suggestion of the Ganwu Universe Master, you break through to the first level of the Domain Lord stage and are sent out to the Ganwu Universe Kingdom to take up a post ahead of schedule.]

[In the same year, you break through to the ninth level of the Domain Lord stage.]

[At this moment, you have one clone slot available, and since the human race previously promised to find you materials for various powerful plant-type special lifeforms, you temporarily delay the gestation.]

[But you underestimated something.]

[Your talent is so terrifying that the alien races would never allow you to grow up.]

[At 143 years old, a King Rank powerhouse tracks you down to the planet where you reside. You know it is the Yinshe King of the Monster Race, and the one descending now is merely one of his clones.]

[You fall into a bitter struggle.]

[However, the Thousand Silk Immortal Spirit Silk Grass is only at the early Marquis Rank, and your original guards are barely at the Marquis Rank, so how could they be a match for the Yinshe King?]

[In your desperation, you have no choice but to activate the Wood Fusion secret technique to empower the Thousand Silk Grass.]

[The strength of the Thousand Silk Grass approaches the high Marquis Rank.]

[The Yinshe King is shocked, thinking that the race sending him to eliminate you was already an overestimation, yet he did not expect it to be insufficient.]

[Eleven descends. Only then do you realize that Eleven's strength is at the limit of the King Rank, while the Yinshe King is only at the early King Rank. With two strikes, Eleven beats the Yinshe King until he self-destructs.]

[You survive the disaster.]

[Afterward, countless spies are purged, as the arrival of a King Rank powerhouse in the core territory of the human race is no simple matter.]

[At 144 years old, the human race provides you with three types of plant-type special lifeform materials. If not for this, you would have wanted to just gestate a random Spirit Silk Grass clone, as you still have one more chance as a World Lord.]

[You obtain the special lifeform materials: World Tree leaves, Bo Xue Vine leaves, and Phantom God Flower petals.]

[Bo Xue Vine.]

[The World Tree is the strongest tree-type special lifeform. Although the probability of gestation is extremely small, the high-level human authorities intend to give you a chance to try.]

[The Bo Xue Vine is a 1,000-fold special lifeform; neither its strength nor its volume can be underestimated.]

[Although the Phantom God Flower is only an 800-fold plant lifeform, it is proficient in soul-related matters and has a natural foundation for resisting soul enslavement.]

[You plan to attempt the gestation from highest to lowest. Although the Phantom God Flower is powerful, its volume is much, much smaller than the Bo Xue Vine.]

[You attempt to gestate the World Tree clone... failure.]

[You attempt to gestate the Bo Xue Vine clone... success. You also perceive that the upper limit for the Wood Spirit Emperor to gestate a clone is 1,000 times the gene level, and the Bo Xue Vine reaches that limit perfectly.]

[But the stronger the clone, the longer the gestation time. Your Bo Xue Vine clone will take nearly 1,500 years to succeed.]

[You secretly curse, "Not good."]

[This also means that it will take you another 1,500 years to fully maximize your survival capabilities.]

[However.]

[Your gestation of the Bo Xue Vine clone also gains the approval of the high-level officials of the Virtual Universe Company, who specially grant you 1,500 years of free time, allowing you to stay within the human territory.]

[Due to the previous attack, the Virtual Universe Company dispatches the King Rank Fire Rain King to serve as your personal bodyguard.]

[You execute the highest-level mission.]

[You receive the mission: Exterminate all members of the Yao Hai Family.]

[Since Yao Hai and his disciple Jeffries are only Immortal Military Lords, it is easy for you with the protection of the Fire Rain King. The Virtual Universe Company just wants to go through the motions.]

"Not good!" Han Han thinks to himself.

Yao Hai and Jeffries are weaklings. In the simulation, let alone having the Fire Rain King present, he could easily kill them alone using the Immortal Spirit Silk Grass.

However.

Behind these two losers is a Zerg Mother Emperor, and an Immortal-level Zerg Mother Emperor at that—a being nearly invincible among the King Rank.

Now, Han Han can only hope that the King Rank powerhouse capable of teleportation from the original story is still around, otherwise the simulation will be cut short.

[You obtain the deployment authority for a Ganwu Universe Kingdom army.]

"It's over."

Han Han does not see any news about Kinkaku race assistance. Encountering an Immortal-level Zerg Mother Emperor means there is no way to escape.

[After investigating the information, you begin your operation, inviting Yao Hai and Jeffries to participate under the guise of a banquet. Since the host of the banquet is an Immortal, they will give you face and attend.]

[During the banquet, you release the Spirit Silk Grass, instantly strangling all members of the Yao Hai Family.]

[At the same time.]

[The sky above the planet is shrouded in a golden light; that is the sign of a God Kingdom teleportation. Seeing the appearing Immortal-level Zerg Warrior, the Fire Rain King immediately takes out a spaceship to flee.]

[You suggest entering yours, because the performance of the spaceship you just purchased is more high-end.]

[But the speed of an Immortal-level Zerg Warrior is so fast, and the distance of the God Kingdom teleportation is extremely close to you; without teleportation, there is no way to immediately create distance.]

[An energy beam is fired. You enter the spaceship one step ahead and save your life, but the Fire Rain King is killed directly by this strike.]

[Your spacecraft's performance has been destroyed; escape is impossible.]

[You release the Spirit Silk Grass to envelop the battlefield, preventing the Immortal Zerg Warrior from attacking your true form.]

[However, the Zerg Mother Emperor excels in coordinated attacks. Another beam of energy fires out; although the Spirit Silk Grass is vast, it is helpless against such a powerful, concentrated strike.]

[You have been killed.]

[This simulation has ended.]

"Sigh!"

Han Han let out a sigh.

The main issue was that the Virtual Universe Company had only given him what they thought was an absolutely safe and easy mission; they had no idea there would be an Immortal-level Zerg Mother Emperor.

Furthermore, he guessed.

This Zerg Mother Emperor was in her prime; the Zerg Mother Emperor Luo Feng encountered back then had far fewer Zerg Warriors.

One must realize, she was currently capable of killing a low-level King Rank in a single strike.

[Rating: G-60]

[Having possessed the Wood Spirit Emperor, you entered the vision of the human race's upper echelons. Unfortunately, powerful special lifeforms are not so easily nurtured; even a completely inconspicuous figure can bring about disaster.]

[You may choose three from the following options.]

[One: Domain Lord level 8 realm.]

[Two: Wood Law recognition.]

[Three: Mastery of Falling Wood Seven Kill Blade.]

[Four: The first three volumes of Mother Ancestor Secret Canon.]

[Five: 1.5 billion Hunyuan Units.]

[Six: One World Lord level 7 Cloud-Touching Vine with 216 vines.]

[Seven: A set of F9-grade equipment (including weapon, battle suit, and spacecraft; all future instances will follow this standard).]

[Eight: Plant Lifeform materials: World Tree leaf, Bo Xue Vine leaf, Phantom God Flower petal.]

[Nine: Plant Lifeform materials: Breakthrough materials for Thousand Silk Spirit Silk Grass to reach Immortal, and breakthrough materials for the 216-vine Cloud-Touching Vine.]

[Ten: Special Lifeform - Wood Spirit.]
