As soon as Su Chen finished complaining, the system's announcement sounded.

[During this system's simulations, the simulated character will retain the host's original personality. However, because the extracted traits differ, the simulated personality will also vary each time.] [In light of the host's doubts, this system can provide the Consciousness Synchronization Service.]

"Seriously?!"

Su Chen was startled. He had only made an offhand complaint, yet the system actually had such a function.

However, Su Chen did not use it immediately. He understood himself well enough—he did not possess an exceptionally powerful mind and could not perform as he had in the simulation.

If he were the one controlling things, all he could do in the end was find a way to seize the immortal herbs, alter his physique, then win over the younger Bibi Dong and ride her coattails to godhood.

But if that were the case, the simulation reward he received would surely be mediocre.

The system seemed to have sensed Su Chen's concerns, and its announcement sounded again.

[The Consciousness Synchronization Service is intended to allow the host to deeply experience the simulation's contents. During this process, neither the direction of the simulation nor the character's personality will undergo any changes due to the host.]

"So that's how it is!"

With the explanation, Su Chen finally understood. This function was essentially letting him personally experience the life he had lived in the simulation.

Though he could not control it himself, it would at least relieve some boredom. Su Chen did not hesitate and directly activated consciousness synchronization.

[Consciousness synchronization loading...] [Loading complete!]

Su Chen only saw a blinding flash of white light. When he opened his eyes again, the scene before him had become what Yu Chen saw in the Simulation Video.

[After leaving the main hall, Yu Chen returned directly to the small room where he lived.] [Sitting on the bed, Yu Chen frowned slightly as he looked at the Gold Soul Coin in his hand.] ["One Gold Soul Coin?"] [Yu Chen took a cloth bag from beneath the bed, poured all the Gold Soul Coins inside out before him, and roughly calculated the experimental materials he would need afterward.] [Ten minutes later, Yu Chen finished his calculations.] ["Forget it! The money I saved before should be enough to complete the rest of my experiments!"] [Looking at the Gold Soul Coins before him, Yu Chen could not help but picture Yu Kun's face again, a faint smile curling at his lips.] [He had never intended to use a person to complete his experiment, but since Yu Kun had come to him of his own accord, Yu Kun could not blame him!]

Seeing that Yu Chen on the Sky Screen had clearly set his sights on him, Yu Kun could not endure it any longer, even though they were not in the same world.

[Yu Kun]: Damn it, what does this guy want to do?

[Huo Wu]: What? You're allowed to bully others, but they're not allowed to fight back?

[Feng Xiaotian]: Exactly, exactly! Little Sister Huo Wu is right!

[Yan]: I support Brother Feng!

[Yu Kai]: What do you people know? Yu Kun is simply handling things impartially. Without Soul Power, he does not deserve the clan's resources. What's wrong with that?

[Huo Wu]: Heh! Then why don't you dare say that about Yu Xiaogang? Because you don't dare!

[Liu Erlong]: I'm warning you, don't bring up Xiao Gang for no reason!

For a time, the comments erupted into chaos. Even after Huo Wu and Yu Kun had used up all their chances to speak, it still did not stop. Many people who supported Yu Chen, as well as those who had experienced similar things, began charging at the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's disciples.

Even as the comments flew wildly, the Sky Screen's video continued playing.

[Light flowed, and in the blink of an eye, two years passed.] [Over those two years, Yu Chen's life was highly routine. Every day, he ate, slept, read in the Library Pavilion, and conducted experiments in the wooden cabin.] [Aside from that, Yu Chen had gained another daily task: monitoring Yu Kun.] [It could be said that over those two years, Yu Chen had thoroughly learned every one of Yu Kun's habits. He remembered even the smallest details, such as when Yu Kun woke up and went to sleep.] [Early one morning, after getting up, Yu Chen did not head straight to the Library Pavilion as usual. Instead, he first went to the wooden cabin.] [After taking out a glass vial filled with pale pink liquid from a cabinet in the cabin, Yu Chen headed to the small town at the foot of the clan's mountain.] [Yu Chen's goal was very clear. Through two years of observation, he had learned that Yu Kun took a day off around the middle of every month and came to a tavern in this town.] [What Yu Chen had to do now was add the refined Hemp Leaf Grass extract in his hand to the jar of wine Yu Kun had stored there in advance.] [After rehearsing this many times, Yu Chen encountered no obstacles and easily completed the preparations.] [Afterward, Yu Chen found a secluded spot in the tavern and silently waited.] [He waited until nightfall.] ["Three, two, one!" Yu Chen sat quietly in the corner, counting down in his heart. The moment the countdown ended, Yu Kun walked into the tavern just as expected.] [Another two hours later, Yu Kun finally stood up. He was clearly somewhat drunk, swaying as he walked.] [Yu Chen followed Yu Kun from afar through the darkness. According to his calculations, Yu Kun would completely pass out on the path home. No one ever went there, much less at this hour of night.] [After passing through countless forks in the road, Yu Chen finally followed Yu Kun to a dim, secluded path. Waist-high bushes grew on both sides, and the shade of the trees provided natural cover for Yu Chen to conceal his tracks.] ["Three, two, one!" Once again, the countdown ended. With a dull thud, Yu Kun had already collapsed to the ground.] [Seeing this, Yu Chen did not act immediately. He carefully observed the surrounding environment, and only after confirming there was no one around did he step forward, carry Yu Kun on his back, and swiftly return to the wooden cabin along his planned route.] [This route had also been scouted many times and could be said to be foolproof.] [After returning to the wooden cabin, Yu Chen moved aside the wooden table in the center, lifted the floorboards, and revealed a dim basement. This was something he had specially prepared for his experiments.] [After dragging Yu Kun into the basement and severing all the tendons in his hands and feet, Yu Chen took out a glass containing pale cyan liquid.] [Yu Chen crouched down. Although Yu Kun was still unconscious, he nevertheless spoke.] ["You should feel honored. I specially refined this Soul-Sealing Moss extract for you, so you'd better cooperate with my experiments from now on!"] [Without hesitation, Yu Chen poured the bottle of Soul-Sealing Moss extract directly into Yu Kun's mouth. For the first time, excitement gleamed in Yu Chen's eyes, because the experiment could finally move on to its next stage!]

At this point, all the viewers were speechless. They only felt chills run down their spines.

[Dugu Bo]: Both Hemp Leaf Grass and Soul-Sealing Moss are the lowest-grade plant Soul Beasts, yet after Yu Chen's purification, they can threaten a Soul Elder. This kid is truly talented!

[Dugu Bo]: Moreover, he knows how to endure, and he is ruthless and vicious in his actions. Good! Very good! He is truly to my liking.

[Ma Hongjun]: Damn, this guy is way too terrifying! If someone were watching me like that, I probably wouldn't even be able to sleep.

"Heh, then you're worrying for nothing, Fatty!"

Seeing Ma Hongjun's comment on the Sky Screen, Oscar finally came back to his senses and teased him.

"If Yu Chen were watching you, you probably wouldn't even notice. How could you possibly lose sleep over it?"

"Uh! True!"

Ma Hongjun scratched his head and laughed awkwardly.

Oscar was right. Yu Kun in the video was a genuine level-35 Soul Elder, yet even he had failed to notice Yu Chen's trail. If it were Ma Hongjun, he certainly would not have noticed either.

At that thought, Ma Hongjun could not help shuddering.

"That's why this is the truly terrifying part!"

"Hmph! He's just a stinking rat who only knows how to use underhanded tricks. What's so scary about him?"

Yu Xiaogang snorted coldly, his eyes filled with disdain.
