Collapse Simulator: Raging at the Imaginary Tree

"That won't work. I like to enjoy the breeze outside at night. I often sleep under the big trees outside in Taixu Mountain." Yun Ling explained.

"Don't you even listen to me?" Chi Yuan said without any doubt.

"...Yes, Master." Yun Ling nodded helplessly.

"Waiter, bring me a pot of wine." Yun Ling shouted to the waiter.

"No need." Chi Yuan certainly knew what he was going to do with the wine.

"Master, I..."

"I'll help you. In the future... drink less." Chi Yuan's face couldn't tell what she was feeling at the moment.

Having said this, it would be ungrateful to say anything more.

In order to prevent Yun Ling from running away, Chi Yuan hypnotized Yun Ling with Yu Duchen, and then picked up a book at random and started reading it on the table.

But not long after, Yun Ling, who was sleeping behind him, suddenly started coughing violently.

"Cough, cough, cough, cough..."

Chi Yuan could only use Yu Duchen again to make him sink into a dream.

However, half an hour later, Yun Ling woke up again, with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.

"Has your illness become this serious?" Chi Yuan frowned. She had no idea about Yun Ling's condition.

In the past, he could always sleep through the night.

"Well, it was almost like this a year ago." Yun Ling took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"So the reason you went out to sleep was because..." Chi Yuan remembered what Yun Ling had just said.

He often slept outside on Mount Taixu. Could it be because of this disease?

"I want to breathe some fresh air." Yun Ling made up an excuse.

"Why didn't you tell me?" Chi Yuan asked.

Hearing this, Yun Ling did not answer, but looked at Chi Yuan steadily.

Chi Yuan felt a little guilty when he saw this look and subconsciously dodged for a moment.

"If the master wasn't hiding from me, I would have told him, but there's no chance."

"I..."

……

Chapter 77 God?

"Go to bed early, we'll be able to reach Wangshan tomorrow."

Chi Yuan still didn't dare to answer Yun Ling's question directly.

Yun Ling closed his eyes and stopped talking.

Chi Yuan's eyes remained on the book, but he did not turn another page.

The next day, a large group of martial artists had gathered at the foot of Wangshan Mountain.

The purpose of their coming here is self-evident.

Just to compete for the title of "second in the world".

Chi Yuan and Yun Ling had already climbed up Wangshan Mountain and were not planning to have any contact with them.

The setting sun has not yet set, and rays of sunlight shine into the bamboo forest, giving it a sense of freshness and elegance.

Unfortunately, all this was ruined by the oppressive atmosphere coming from the top of the mountain.

By the time the two reached the top of the mountain, the setting sun had completely set and many people were already lying on the ground.

"I, a late student of Yan Shiluo, pay my respects to the Immortal Chiyuan. The immortal's arrival brings glory to my humble home on Wangshan Mountain."

Yan Shiluo had white hair and vicious eyes. The look he gave Chi Yuan was full of wanton aggression.

For him, being the best in the world is just around the corner.

Yan Shiluo wasn't the only one to turn and greet him. Taoist Qingmu from Ziyang Mountain and Cui Yuanpeng from the Giant Whale Clan also greeted the Immortal. Both were top-tier warriors in the martial arts world, their strength only slightly inferior to that of the elders from the five major sects.

"These guests arrived earlier. Would the Immortal mind if I entertain them first?"

As Yan Shiluo spoke, the blue-green flame in his hand suddenly poured out, and the two lives that were just alive withered away.

Seeing this scene, Chi Yuan and Yun Ling didn’t feel anything. They all came here for fame and fortune, so who could they blame for their death?

Chi Yuan observed Yan Shiluo's movements.

Extremely high concentrations of Honkai energy, maintaining a complete sense of self, and the flames contain a Honkai reaction powerful enough to spawn an Emperor-level Honkai Beast...

It seems like he is possessed by a demon but not really. Instead, it is more like... a Herrscher?

"Yun Ling, he has been possessed by a demon."

"Yes, master."

Yun Ling coughed twice and came to Yan Shiluo.

"My name is Yunling, please teach me."

Yun Ling looked sick and coughed from time to time, giving people the impression that he was very weak.

"Oh? This is the legendary Taixu's first disciple, Master Yunling, right?"

"It just so happens that there are always rumors in the martial arts world that I am not as good as you. Let's give it a try today!"

Yun Ling followed Chi Yuan down the mountain to fight demons a long time ago, so many people in the world knew of Yun Ling's existence.

During the demon-slaying campaign, Yun Ling's strength shocked countless people.

With the halo of being an immortal, some people ranked him second in the world, but Yun Ling was not interested in it.

However, in the past three years, Yun Ling rarely went down the mountain to fight demons, and spent most of his time on Taixu Mountain.

Yan Shiluo relied on his own methods to attack people from various major sects, and only then was he able to maintain the title of "second".

The true energy around Yan Shiluo suddenly expanded, and the temperature of the flame rose by more than a certain amount.

But Yun Ling still stood there quietly, as if he didn't feel the scorching heat at all.

"Master Yunling, aren't you going to draw your sword?" Yan Shiluo looked at Yun Ling.

"It takes a lot of time to take care of Ruoshui, and Ruoshui is in a bad mood today and doesn't want to unsheathe her sword." Yun Ling made up an excuse.

“…Arrogant!”

A flame shot towards Yun Ling.

Yun Ling stretched out two fingers and pointed them in front of him. An invisible sword energy immediately blocked the flames.

"Mysterious Ice Jade Palm!" Yan Shiluo took the initiative to rush forward, the holy fire in his hand became stronger, and he hit Yun Ling hard with a palm.

However, the next second, he flew out like a kite with a broken string.

It happened so fast that you couldn't even see what was happening.

"No... Impossible! I have the protection of the gods and the Holy Fire in my hands. How could I possibly lose to you! Jade Divine Art!!!"

Yan Shiluo could hardly believe the disparity and began to madly circulate the true energy in his body, pouring it out to the outside as if he was risking his life.

Suddenly, he fell to his knees, his whole body twitching.

“?” Yun Ling blinked.

He hadn't even made a move yet, so why was he lying down? Was he trying to scam me?

“God…God…you…Ah!!!”

Yan Shiluo began to scream wildly, and his holy fire actually set himself on fire.

The shrill screams resounded throughout Wangshan.

"Don't... don't abandon me..."

When the flames died down, Yan Shiluo had been burned to charcoal, still shouting some words about "God".

This scene also made Chi Yuan's eyes flicker with surprise.

Who is the god he is talking about?

But what is certain is that Yan Shiluo is not a law-breaker, he is far from being one.

Now that the leader of the Holy Fire Cult is dead, his followers will naturally scatter.

"Master, why did he suddenly burn himself? Is it because he didn't practice martial arts well enough?" Yun Ling looked at Chi Yuan.

"I don't know." Chi Yuan shook his head.

This was the first time she had seen such a thing, but judging from his appearance, he must have been controlled and killed by something.

Is this the god he was talking about?

But why kill him?

Suddenly, two children came over.

They were the holy maidens of the Holy Fire Cult, but at this moment they seemed to have been possessed, staring at Yun Ling with lifeless eyes.

"Yun Ling, you can't run away."

They spoke to Yun Ling in unison.

This strange scene was a bit terrifying, and the look in his eyes seemed to want to eat him up without leaving a single bit.

"Do you know me?" Yun Ling frowned, feeling that something was not right.

But he did not wait for the two's answer, because after saying that sentence, they disappeared.

"They have good talents. Take them with you and go back to Taixu Mountain." Chi Yuan said to Yun Ling without realizing it.

"Master, didn't you see it just now?" Yun Ling was even more surprised.

Two living people disappeared right before my eyes...

"What?" There was some confusion in Chi Yuan's eyes.

When Yun Ling came to his senses again, the two little girls were looking at him coquettishly.

“???” Yun Ling was stunned.

Was he hallucinating just now?

Yun Ling took a closer look at the two girls.

"Sister, I'm scared."

"Sister, I'm scared too."

They clasped their fingers together and pretended to be frightened.

"Don't be afraid, let me check you out... Ouch!"

"Let's go." Chi Yuan left without looking back.

The two sisters hurried to catch up with Chi Yuan, but suddenly Chi Yuan stopped and looked away.

A girl hid behind a stone pillar and looked at Chi Yuan and others cautiously.

Although she was still young, a lot of true energy emanated from her body.

"You are..."

"She won't answer," my sister reminded me.

"She is weird and doesn't pay any attention to others." My sister said the same thing.

Yun Ling saw that Chi Yuan's eyes seemed to hold a different emotion, one that seemed to be reminiscing...

Is this child special?

"What's her...name?"

"Name? I think it's..."

Cheng Lingshuang!
