Su Xing paused when he saw this, as if something had suddenly occurred to him, and he halted the simulation, whispering to himself."I want to use the immersive simulation feature!"
[Ding, you have successfully used the immersive simulation, consuming one hundred thousand points of energy for one hour of simulation time, remaining energy 2,523,333 points!]
This was the third time Su Xing had used the immersive simulation feature, and each time, there had been a compelling reason for him to enter personally.
And this time was for an important reason as well.
Su Xing felt a swirl of change before his eyes, and when he regained his senses, he found himself in an unfamiliar environment.
It looked like a rural area belonging to some remote town, indeed a suitable hideout for a renegade organization like the Descending Sect.
In front of Su Xing stood a figure clad in black tight-fitting clothes, completely wrapped up, wearing a mask with a green face and fierce fangs that looked incredibly intimidating.
"Why did you suddenly stop talking?"
Luo Shuying's voice, tinged with fatigue, came from in front of Su Xing.
Hearing this, Su Xing smiled and said,
"I was thinking, if I travel through the timeline to see you again, is there any way I could get you to trust me directly, without the need for mutual probing, like setting up a passcode or something?"
This was the reason Su Xing wanted to use the immersive simulation. If he could really set up a passcode, it would save a lot of time in later simulations.
Hearing this, Luo Shuying paused for a moment, then chuckled lightly,
"If there ever comes such a day, you can say to me, 'Do you still remember that little girl who cried all night in the heavy rain? We can never go back, Luo Shuying!'"
Upon hearing this, Su Xing nodded earnestly, committing Luo Shuying's words to memory, and then replied casually,
"Don't worry! The next time I travel through the timeline, I will definitely try to save your hometown and the world again!"
After hearing this, Luo Shuying's eyes held a hint of anticipation as she nodded,
"I really look forward to that day; it's a pity I won't be able to see it..."
Su Xing fell silent. Each simulation was just a short few minutes for him, but for the people who truly existed within the simulation, it represented a lifetime.
For the next several minutes, Su Xing did nothing superfluous, just quietly staying by Luo Shuying's side, looking at the tranquil country paths and the endless golden rice fields.
It was as if the whole world was so peaceful, having forgotten the apocalypse and the bloody struggle.
When the immersive simulation time was about to end, Luo Shuying suddenly said to Su Xing,
"Elder Yao, could you take off your mask and let me see it?"
No sooner had Luo Shuying finished speaking than she took off her own mask, revealing her delicate features, skin whiter than snow, and light blue eyes, like a sprite living among humans, albeit with a lingering sadness in her eyes.
Su Xing was momentarily astounded by Luo Shuying's beauty. If Jin Congxue was the most beautiful girl Su Xing had seen before, Luo Shuying was even more breathtaking by quite a margin.
Su Xing smiled and also took off his mask.
In an instant, upon seeing Su Xing's face, Luo Shuying was also stunned.
After a long silence, Luo Shuying smiled and said,
"I never expected Elder Yao to be so young, and yet so beautiful... I can somewhat understand why another me from a different timeline would form an alliance with you~"
Having said that, Luo Shuying blinked her eyes.
Su Xing smiled slightly, just about to say something when his consciousness snapped back to the real world in an instant.
[Ding, immersive simulation experience has ended. The host will shortly return to the real world.] Sёarch* The nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Back in the real world, Su Xing stared blankly at the simulation screen in front of him, taking quite some time to recover his senses.
"Luo Shuying, she must have come from a tragic background as well..."
Su Xing murmured silently to himself.
For Su Xing, the immersive simulation was entirely risk-free; if he ever encountered danger, the simulator would automatically terminate the immersion, and Su Xing's consciousness would return to his body.
Moreover, even if he told the people within the simulation about his ability to traverse time, they would forget by the next session, and it would not affect the real world in the slightest.
It was precisely for this reason that Su Xing boldly formed an alliance with Luo Shuying.
[In the tenth year, you successfully convinced Luo Shuying to join forces with you and defect to the Great Xia Military. Before defecting, you and Luo Shuying raided the Descending Sect's treasury, obtaining a large quantity of medicinal ingredients and treasures.]
[You were pursued by six protectors and more than a dozen elders from the high ranks of the Descending Sect; fortunately, after joining the Great Xia Military, you were protected by them.]
[Though the Descending Sect was strong, it dared not confront the Great Xia Military head-on and had no choice but to let you go.]
[You met Lu Yuanwu and handed over all of the two hundred and thirty thousand Organ Refining Pills and Essence-Nourishing Pills you had accumulated over the years to him and personally supervised the soldiers of the Great Xia Military in taking the elixirs correctly.]
[With your assistance in making elixirs, in just half a year's time, the Great Xia Military gained over forty thousand Grandmaster Level professionals! The number of Grandmaster Level professionals in Great Xia Country increased multiple times over!]
Su Xing felt a surge of excitement upon seeing this.
As far as Su Xing knew, the number of Grandmaster Level professionals in Great Xia Country in recent years was around ten to twenty thousand, and most of these professionals came from top institutions like Kyoto Academy and the like.
Every year, these seven institutions supplied a substantial number of talented professionals to the military and Demon-Subduing Pass, who often saw significant increases in strength within a year or two after being tempered by war.
Su Xing murmured:
"However, ten years later, the number of Grandmaster Level professionals in the Great Xia Military not only did not increase but decreased, indicating that the war at Demon-Subduing Pass was intensifying.
The fear is that the influx of new professionals cannot keep up with the deaths, which is why the number of Grandmaster Level professionals dropped from over ten thousand to less than ten thousand."
But ten years later, Su Xing forcefully increased the number of Grandmaster Level professionals in the Great Xia Military by forty thousand, instantly multiplying its core strength and greatly enhancing its chances of defending Demon-Subduing Pass.
"And most importantly, it's the Spirit Pill! That's something that can foster Heavenly King Level professionals!"
Su Xing took a deep breath and continued the simulation.
[In the eleventh year, with the addition of forty thousand Grandmaster Level professionals at Demon-Subduing Pass, the war at the front started to turn in favor, allowing Great Xia Country not only to hold Demon-Subduing Pass but even occasionally launch counterattacks against the Foreign Race.]
[In the same year, in recognition of your outstanding contributions to Great Xia Country and the entire Human Race, you were awarded the Great Xia Country Hero Medal and a first-class sequence treatment!]
[With a first-class sequence treatment, there are only a dozen or so people in the entire Great Xia Country. You could almost access all the intelligence and resource support of the nation, and you chose to become a special consultant to the Great Xia Military, on par with a five-star general.]
[You had just over two hundred pieces of Spirit Grass left in your hands, the key to birthing Heavenly King Level powerhouses. Therefore, you devoted even more attention to refining Spirit Pills and continuously improved the success rate of alchemy.]
[In the twelfth year, you used the two hundred pieces of Spirit Grass to successfully refine over a thousand Spirit Pills. Including those refined earlier, you now had nearly two thousand Spirit Pills.]
[After completing the alchemy, using your first-class sequence privileges, you called for a meeting of the Great Xia upper echelons to discuss the deployment of the Spirit Pills.]
