Simulator: Starting as a Green Snake and Transforming into a Dragon

Finally, everyone arrived. Besides Gu Yuchuan and the viper, the five monsters included a green turtle, a red bird, and a white tiger. Their bloodlines were all quite powerful. Gu Yuchuan was still wondering what they were up to. However, they didn't keep him in suspense, and soon the green-faced fox began to explain.

"I called you here today to break the formation. The Hundred Beasts Formation is a variant of a level four formation, and it is very difficult to break it by force. Therefore, you need to suppress the four poles and the center. This will reduce the formation's power by more than half, and then we can break it."

The white tiger raised its paw: "Demon General, we are certainly willing to do things for the war, but apart from this Serpent Lord, the rest of us demons are only at the Qi Refining stage. What role can we play? Even the Black Bear Lord is having such a hard time today."

The blue-faced fox waved his hand, signaling them not to get agitated. His voice also carried a reassuring tone: "Don't worry, your bloodlines are all excellent and have great potential. We won't let you die. Tomorrow is the real breaking of the formation, and many cultivators will be going in. They will all protect you. In addition, I will give each of you a talisman, a level two talisman. Once you activate it, it will provide defense for half an hour, which should be enough."

Now everyone's mood improved a bit, but their faces were still grim. After all, they all knew that it was an array, and they were the ones suppressing the array flags. The other side would definitely attack them with all their might. Otherwise, since the demon generals had summoned them, it was not something they could refuse; they could only accept it.

Seeing that they had talked a lot but hadn't gotten to the point, Gu Yuchuan became anxious and spoke up: "Demon General, what I want to know is, what are we supposed to do in the formation? Suppressing the formation flags isn't something we can just talk about. We can't do it on our own. So, what kind of support can we get to ensure success? And finally, how much merit can we gain from this adventure? That's what we need to know right now."

The Xuan Turtle Demon General picked up the thread, glancing at Gu Yuchuan: "Alright, you need to believe one thing: we won't treat you unfairly. You should all know that Yunhaize is currently nurturing all the worthy demons. After your perilous journey this time, I've decided that each of you will receive 100 battle merits. As for how you will suppress the array flags, let Senior Green-Faced Fox explain it to you."

This is actually a psychological boost; telling them there are benefits to be gained is enough to at least make them less opposed to the idea of ​​using this word.

"I will give each of you a spell. Stand above the array flags, activate the spells, and draw upon your bloodlines. Your bloodlines will begin to suppress the array flags. When that happens, the array's power will be halved, and we will be able to break the array. Remember, don't go to the wrong place. For example, if you walk onto the Vermilion Bird's array flag, you will definitely die. Just watch your position and make sure you don't make any mistakes. If there is any danger, activate the talisman. You don't need to worry about anything else."

Everyone nodded and began to learn the suppression spell. By the time they had all learned it, it was already late at night, and dawn was not far away. They even rested there. In another hour, they would set off, but Gu Yuchuan was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.

He really wanted to simulate something so dangerous, but since he was in the same room as the viper, there was no space for him to simulate it. If he were to expose his simulator, that would be a huge disaster.

However, not simulating it made him incredibly uneasy. Ever since he transmigrated, he had adhered to a pattern: doing all sorts of dangerous things in the simulator to seek opportunities, but in reality, he would do whatever was safest. Since this danger was unavoidable, he would definitely use simulation to seek a safe future. But he couldn't do it. In front of the viper, he dared not simulate it at all; he would definitely be discovered.

The viper noticed his unease and walked over to him: "Brother Green Snake, is this your first time experiencing something like this? I see you're so nervous. Actually, you can relax a bit. During the great battle, we'll send at least twenty Foundation Establishment experts. Each of us will be protected by Foundation Establishment cultivators, so there won't be any problems. If something happens to us, breaking the formation will basically be a failure, and everyone will die. So, they will protect us."

Gu Yuchuan could actually understand this principle, but the point of his distress wasn't there. The source of his distress was something he couldn't express to the viper, so he could only manage a bitter smile.

"Thank you, Brother Viper. I know. I'll just rest for a while."

Seeing this, the viper nodded: "That's right, don't put too much pressure on yourself. You'll be fine. When the time comes, 100 battle merits can be exchanged for a lot of things. Think about these things, cheer up, and take a break. You seem a bit dazed, which can affect your combat strength. If something happens because of this, it will be a bad thing."

He said nothing and found a place to adjust his mindset. He knew that there was something wrong with his state of mind. Ultimately, he didn't have the heart of a strong person. This was an inevitable phenomenon of having a cheat code. He could solve all the dangers without having to face them himself. Over time, he naturally lost the courage to face difficulties. Fortunately, he realized this now, and it was not too late to change. It was more than enough.

Suddenly, he felt a sense of peace settle in his heart. A delicate fragrance wafted over, transporting him to a mountain forest after a spring rain—the scent of earth, the warmth of sunshine, a gentle breeze—as if all the beauty in the world was contained there. His mood improved considerably. He looked up and saw that the Serpent King had lit a calming incense stick. Gu Yuchuan nodded to him, then closed his eyes and began to adjust his mindset.

In this hour, he finally came to a realization: he couldn't always be like this when it came to danger. He could face less danger, since this was the safer path, but he couldn't lose the will to confront danger. He should change things now; it wasn't too late.

The sun rose, its light spilling across the earth. Today's sun, dazzling as ever, seemed to be anticipating the arrival of this great battle. This could be considered the first major battle of this war, involving cities and dozens of Foundation Establishment stage experts. Many powerful figures were watching the outcome.
