Chapter 39 - 37: The Peculiar Cultivation Simulator, Su Chen Masters the Great Shifting

"You are extremely anxious, and suddenly you think of the Bloodthirsty Demon Saber. You feel that perhaps you can use the power of the demon blade to counteract the ancient and mysterious force within your sister’s body." "Then, you borrow a pig-slaughtering knife from the village and begin to invoke the Bloodthirsty Demon Saber in front of your sister’s bed. Soon, you see the ancient black curse marks on your sister’s skin gradually disappear, and her eyes slowly return to normal. However, she remains in a coma." "The next day, your sister wakes up, but she has completely forgotten what happened when she was possessed. Seeing you return, she is very happy and immediately pulls you to go play in the back mountain." "You and your sister Lin Xue play in the back mountain. During this time, you surprisingly reopen the previous secret realm. This time, you and your sister enter a stone cave, which is the very cave where Zhang Wuji practiced the Great Shifting in the Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre." "Your sister is very anxious and tries to push open the stone door, thinking that you both are trapped." "You know in your heart that only by mastering the Great Shifting can the stone door be opened, and the Heart Method of Great Shifting is located behind that skeleton." "You instruct your sister to take the Heart Method of Great Shifting from the skeleton, and then read the Heart Method with you." "You then begin to practice the Great Shifting. With the foundation of Nine Yang Divine Skill, you reach the seventh level of Great Shifting within a few hours. Then, you spend another day to practice to the eighth level, just one step away from the ninth level." "Afterwards, you effortlessly push open the stone door using the Great Shifting and leave the secret realm with your sister, returning to the back mountain." Ding, simulation ended, calculating rewards... Oh my... After the simulation ends, Su Chen feels awakened as if a heavy load is lifted from his mind. He carefully recalls the content he just viewed. "There’s quite a lot in this simulation training, but the content seems a bit odd, full of suspense. What is inside my sister’s body? Where did she come from... and what about those secret realms?" Su Chen ponders, while the voice of the system echoes again in his mind. "Ding, congratulations to the master for successfully mastering the sixth level of Great Shifting. From now on, you possess the power to stir rivers and seas..." Rewards have been distributed, looking forward to the master starting another simulation training... Great Shifting? Su Chen shivers all over, and the next second, he feels a massive unfamiliar stream of information entering his mind, precisely the complete Heart Method of Great Shifting. "Didn’t expect to master it just like that, including the memory of how to invoke and use the Great Shifting, it is all in my mind." Feeling that he has truly mastered the Great Shifting, Su Chen is both surprised and pleased. He tentatively raises his left hand, slightly gathering True Qi, then feels his body being gradually lifted by a mysterious force, slowly floating in mid-air. "Oh my, what’s happening... Brother Chen, why is he floating?" Beside him, the chubby Liu Yang, who hasn’t slept, quickly puts down his phone and exclaims. "Could it be ghosts? I remember reading about some paranormal incidents, where someone suddenly floats in their sleep at midnight, lifted by ghosts..." The chubby Liu Yang’s alarmed chatter quickly draws the attention of others. Su Chen hastily withdraws the power of Great Shifting and returns to the bed, quickly explaining. "Don’t talk nonsense, I was practicing martial arts, I had one hand supporting myself, you just didn’t see it." In the dark environment, with Su Chen’s explanation, everyone is convinced. Afterwards, the four of them chat a bit more, and the tent gradually quiets down. For others, this night seems nothing special. But for Su Chen, he senses something eerie; he faintly perceives that this Cultivation World simulator is not merely providing him simple rewards. The happenings of the Cultivation World are filled with suspense and questions, and if it’s all virtual, why are there so many questions? In the latter part of the night, Su Chen feels a headache and finally falls asleep. Until the next morning at eight, Su Chen is awakened by the heavy clock chimes. It seems to be the chimes from the valley, melodious yet heavy. Su Chen immediately opens his eyes, only to see Instructor Ling Yue, with red flowing hair and a seductive and charming demeanor, standing at his bedside. "Su Chen, you really can sleep, get up quickly. Now, we all have to gather at the entrance to Wilderness Gorge, where the president of Linjiang City Martial Artist Alliance will personally speak and tell you the rules of this martial arts conference." President of Linjiang City Martial Artist Alliance? Su Chen scratches his head. Although in his previous world, any Martial Artist alliance was merely a civilian organization, in this world, it is quite an official position. Its authority is even on par with the director of Linjiang City’s Blue Shield Headquarters.
