Infinite simulation from lock dragon well
#404 - Sweet after bitter
【Year 45, Day 120: You arrived at Mount Fang, located outside the East Sea, where you encountered the transcendent mythological figure, Nuwa.
Upon seeing Nuwa, a surge of restlessness filled your heart. You didn't know why, but a sense of battle always arose within you. You wanted to challenge Nuwa, yet you were also acutely aware that you stood no chance against her. The gap between you and Nuwa was simply too vast.
Nuwa seemed to sense your fighting spirit, finding it quite amusing. She smiled at you and remarked that you, the guardian of the Great Wilderness, were indeed interesting. It had been a long time since she had felt such fervent battle intent emanating from a living being.
Nuwa's gaze was filled with admiration as she suggested that if you were so eager to fight, you should spar right there and then, lest you suffocate from the pent-up energy.
Against your better judgment, you agreed to Nuwa's proposal…】
Sparring with Nuwa again?
Was he out of his mind? Did he enjoy being twisted into a rope so much?
Ji Zheng, coiled within the waters of the Huai River, couldn't help but sink into contemplation.
Logically, after being easily defeated by Nuwa in the previous simulation, he shouldn't have so readily harbored a desire to fight her again.
He couldn't possibly be unaware of the immense difference in power between himself and Nuwa.
Yet, even knowing this, he still felt the urge to challenge her.
What was going on?
Was it because of the Primordial Qi?
Ji Zheng could only think of this as a possible explanation.
Primordial Qi belonged to the metal element, representing war and slaughter.
But even if he had comprehended Primordial Qi, how could he possibly be a match for Nuwa?
Wasn't he just asking to be twisted into a rope again?
Ji Zheng remained silent, continuing to observe the simulation.
The simulation continued.
【Year 45, Day 123: You and Nuwa arrived above the East Sea to spar. As always, Nuwa allowed you to strike first.
Without hesitation, you immediately activated the Four Qi Empowerment, entering a state of oneness with heaven and earth. You also called upon the aid of the Great Wilderness's east and communicated with the East Sea, seeking its assistance as well. You even began to summon wind and rain, pushing yourself to your absolute peak.
Facing Nuwa, you unleashed your most powerful attack. Nuwa remained unfazed, merely waving her hand, causing your attack to dissipate. Then, Nuwa launched her own attack.
The moment Nuwa attacked, your mind trembled violently. An extreme sense of threat flooded your dragon soul, instantly triggering your innate ability to sense good fortune and avoid disaster.
You desperately wanted to dodge, but an unseen force seemed to be holding you down. You could only watch helplessly as wisps of pure energy descended from the sky, circling around you several times. You could clearly sense that any one of these wisps of energy could easily kill you.
Your heart trembled with shock. Was this the power of a transcendent mythological figure? A casual strike possessing the power to annihilate you.
At the same time, you felt a strange sensation as you watched the wisps of pure energy surrounding you. You sensed the aura of the Yang Five Elements within them, and as you gazed at these wisps, a vague understanding began to form in your mind.】
【Year 45, Day 124: The wisps of pure energy dissipated after circling you several times.
Nuwa then approached you, praising your courage and extraordinary valor.
Nuwa added that it had been many years since anyone had dared to attack her in such a manner. She admired your courage, but your path was already set, and she couldn't offer much help. Those wisps of pure energy came from a great divine ability. How much you could comprehend depended entirely on your own understanding.
You were stunned for a moment, wanting to ask something, but Nuwa didn't wait for your question. Her figure transformed into a beam of five-colored divine light and vanished, leaving you unable to even catch a glimpse of her…】
Indeed, the difference between him and Nuwa was clear.
Too great.
So great that he couldn't even muster the will to resist.
His strength was certainly considerable now.
But compared to a transcendent mythological figure, he was still far too weak.
Too weak to even withstand a single blow, only to be twisted into a rope.
Ji Zheng sighed inwardly, not at all surprised by the outcome.
But what did surprise him was that the wisps of pure energy Nuwa used to fight were actually a great divine ability, and from the looks of it, Nuwa seemed to be deliberately displaying it for him, hoping he would gain some insight?
He just didn't know if the him in the simulation would be able to comprehend anything.
Ji Zheng certainly hoped that the him in the simulation would be able to comprehend something.
But judging from the current situation in the simulation, it seemed uncertain.
The him in the simulation only seemed to see that the pure energy was a condensation of the Yang Five Elements, but nothing else.
However, he was only looking at a bunch of text. Whether he actually comprehended anything would depend on the him in the simulation.
Ji Zheng pondered, then continued to read the simulation.
The simulation continued.
【Year 45, Day 125: You stood above the East Sea, gazing in the direction Nuwa had left, and after a long while, you turned back towards the Huai River.】
【Year 45, Day 126: On your way back to the Huai River, you kept thinking about what Nuwa had told you, that the wisps of pure energy originated from a great divine ability, and that Nuwa wanted you to try to comprehend something from them.
You couldn't help but ponder. You had been surrounded by those wisps of energy that could threaten your life for a whole day. How could you not have gained any insights?
In your perception, the pure energy seemed to be a gathering of the Yang Five Elements, and it also possessed a sense of the sky. You had once held up the sky, so you were very familiar with it.
But besides these, you also had some other insights, but you couldn't express these insights in words. You needed to digest them completely before you could roughly understand what these insights were.】
【Year 45, Day 133: You returned to the Huai River and began to cultivate at the bottom of the river. What you were cultivating now was the great divine ability that Nuwa had spoken of. You wanted to try to comprehend something from those wisps of pure energy.】
【Year 45, Day 200: You entered a meditative state and began your comprehension…】
【Year 45, Day 300: You continued your cultivation, but you didn't gain much. The insights brought by those wisps of pure energy were difficult to turn into something you could use, but if you wanted to obtain the great divine ability that Nuwa had spoken of, you had no other choice but to be patient and continue to comprehend.】
【Year 46: You were still comprehending. You vaguely understood something in your heart, but it was still very difficult to truly comprehend anything.】
【Year 47: Your subordinate, Old Turtle, sent someone to inform you that there was a divine person outside the Huai River who wished to see you. After sensing it slightly, you knew it was Emperor Jiang.
You also know what Emperor Jiang came for. It's probably to find you for another spar. But you want to concentrate on comprehending now and can't spare any energy. Besides, a battle with Emperor Jiang wouldn't be decided in ten thousand or even a hundred thousand years.
You can only ask Old Turtle to politely decline Emperor Jiang and convey your message: once you finish your seclusion, you will personally go to the Heavenly Realm and challenge Emperor Jiang when you have the chance.
After your Old Turtle went to deliver the message, you immediately sensed that Emperor Jiang had left the vicinity of the Huai River. You breathed a sigh of relief and then continued your cultivation. ]
… …
[Year 48, you are still cultivating… …]
The matter with Nuwa and the matter with Emperor Jiang have both passed.
Which means he has nearly a hundred years to cultivate.
Ji Zheng also breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart.
This hundred years of cultivation time is too important to him.
He just doesn't know how much time he will spend on comprehending this divine ability.
Nuwa asked him to comprehend this Clear Qi divine ability, there must be Nuwa's reasons.
Most likely, this Clear Qi divine ability will be of great help to him.
He knows that if he lacks this divine ability, it would be a pity, and he might not even get this divine ability in the future.
But he would rather spend time comprehending the Taiji Qi.
He needs to gather the Five Qi even more!
Gathering the Five Qi and evolving again is the path he should take. If he wants to become stronger faster and have enough power to protect the Great Wilderness, then he must gather the Five Qi.
If he spends fifty years, or even more, comprehending this Clear Qi divine ability during these hundred years, then he would rather not have this divine ability.
“I just don’t know what the me in the simulation will choose?”
Ji Zheng has no way to interfere with his choice in the simulation, so he can only choose to continue watching the simulation.

[Year 57, you are still quietly cultivating at the bottom of the Huai River. Your understanding of those strands of Clear Qi has been slowly digested as you cultivate, and you have gradually understood some things.
After gathering the Five Qi, the Five Qi will turn into Yin and Yang, the Two Instruments. The Clear Qi rises to the sky, and the turbid Qi sinks to the earth. Heaven and earth open from this. Gathering the Five Qi means you have the power to reopen the world, provided your power is strong enough.
And the move that Nuwa used before was to use the Clear Qi of the sky to suppress and kill you. You don't have any understanding of the divine ability of drawing the Clear Qi of the sky, and you can't learn it unless you comprehend the Five Qi before you can learn the divine ability of drawing the Clear Qi of the sky.
But this time, it's not like you haven't learned anything. You have a great understanding of the Yang Five Elements contained in the Clear Qi.
The Wu Earth comprehension of the Yang Five Elements in the Clear Qi is of great help to you. You are confident that when you comprehend the Taiji Qi, you will complete the Wu Earth of the Taiji Qi at the fastest speed. ]
… …
[Year 58, you officially started cultivating the Taiji Qi. You are confident that as long as you complete the Taiji Qi comprehension, it will definitely be of great help to you.]
… …
[Year 59, you comprehend the Taiji Qi. Your Yang Wu Earth has advanced by leaps and bounds, quickly reaching 60%, but your Yin Ji Earth cultivation is very slow. After a year of cultivation, it has only increased by 1%, and now it has only reached 10%.]
Is Yang Wu Earth cultivating so fast because of Nuwa?
But Yin Earth, that is, Ji Earth, is cultivating very slowly.
Ji Zheng felt distressed.
Now it seems that in his simulation, the cultivation of Yang Earth will be very fast. Maybe in a few years, he will cultivate to the extreme.
But this Yin Earth is a big problem.
The cultivation of Yin Earth is too slow.
According to the current speed of cultivation in the simulation, it will take 80 years to cultivate from 1% to 90%, and now it is 10%.
Then the cultivation after 90% will be very slow.
That is to say, it will take at least a hundred years, or even two hundred years, for him to complete the cultivation of Ji Earth and completely condense the Taiji Qi.
But it is hard to say whether he can last for two hundred years in the simulation.
In the last simulation, in the 130th year, the actions of humans and gods became frequent.
Now that Nuwa's mediation time has become later in this simulation, the time when the gods and humans start fighting again will definitely change.
I just don't know how long the gods and humans will endure this time.
“Ji Earth, ah, Ji Earth.”
Ji Zheng sighed constantly in his heart.
This kind of thing where he is slowly just a little bit away from completing the gathering of the Five Qi is the most uncomfortable.
He doesn't know what to do.
Because of the Clear Qi of the sky, his understanding of the Yang Five Elements has deepened, and Wu Earth has improved rapidly.
Then he can't go and find a Turbid Qi of the earth to deepen his understanding of the Yin Five Elements and then comprehend Ji Earth, right?
That's not reliable.
He doesn't even know where to find the Turbid Qi of the earth.
Even this Clear Qi of the sky was created by Nuwa. If it were him, where would he find such a Clear Qi of the sky?
“It’s not ideal or reliable to try to find the Turbid Qi of the earth, but it’s not okay to just cultivate in peace.”
“At this time, the usefulness of the Mysterious Book comes out.”
Ji Zheng inexplicably thought of the Mysterious Book.
The usefulness of the Mysterious Book is usually in this kind of situation, when he can't find the answer.
He would never say that he would look for the Mysterious Book whenever he encountered a problem.
This would make him rely on the Mysterious Book.
If he really completely relied on the Mysterious Book and asked the Mysterious Book about everything, it would only hinder his cultivation in the end.
He already knew this kind of thing, and he was already doing this kind of thing.
All along, except for things that he really couldn't solve, he would look for the Mysterious Book to find a solution. Otherwise, he would never use the Mysterious Book.
Mysterious Book, ah, Mysterious Book.
I really don't know what answer the Mysterious Book will give.
Ji Zheng was thoughtful.
The simulation continues.
… …
[On the 232nd day of the 59th year, after thinking hard and not finding a solution, you turned your attention to the Mysterious Book.
After waiting until the Gui Water Day, you decisively opened the Mysterious Book. After opening, facing your question, the Mysterious Book only showed a short sentence.
‘The Five Qi are difficult to gather, this is a test, cultivate diligently in peace, when the opportunity comes, the bitterness will end and sweetness will come’… …]
Cultivate diligently in peace?
Does this mean that the Mysterious Book has no solution either?
That's not right.
Ji Zheng carefully looked at the screen in front of him.
The meaning of this is that if you want to gather the Five Qi, you must have a test?
And his difficulty in gathering Ji Earth is not just his problem, but also a problem of testing?
The Mysterious Book means to let him cultivate diligently and then wait, wait until the opportunity comes, and then he will gather the Five Qi?
Ji Zheng pondered, is that really what it means?
The bitterness will end and sweetness will come, does it mean that he will successfully gather the Five Qi, or… …
Or does it mean that this simulation is over, and the bitterness is also over?
