My Two-sided Cultivation: Starting From Collecting Experiences

414 Sharing the Secret

After Qin Huai and Yang Tianhan went their separate ways, Qin Huai ran through the forest for several miles before gradually slowing down to a walk. As he reflected on Yang Tianhan’s words about the loopholes in the illusion realm’s rules, he found it difficult to settle his mind.

“What strategy does Yang Tianhan have to eliminate everyone in a single moment?” Qin Huai pondered aloud. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ ɴovelFɪre.net

Then, as if spurred by an invisible force, he turned around and rushed back toward Yang Tianhan. It was clear that instantly eliminating everyone in a massive battle couldn’t solely rely on one’s level of cultivation. After all, even the strongest individual couldn’t wipe out everyone with a single blow.

King’s force? The bronze realm was teeming with five-full-pattern experts. There were as many of them as hairs on an ox, so it was not feasible to obliterate everyone with the king’s force, let alone suppress everyone even momentarily.

Qin Huai furrowed his brows, unable to fathom how a visceral prefecture realm expert could achieve such a feat. Could it be a guardian spirit item left behind by a being far superior to the visceral prefecture realm? Qin Huai could only make guesses in that direction.

The divine qi from Wuji Mountain’s elder had opened Qin Huai’s eyes. However, Liu Laicheng’s performance had already demonstrated that the more powerful the guardian spirit item was, the harder it was to refine and consume.

But the strength of a visceral prefecture realm expert was primarily dictated by the potency of their guardian spirit item. Whether in the bone pattern realm or blood refinement realm, the primary objective was to establish a sturdy foundation for future levels.

“The stronger the body, the greater the number of pattern bones, and the higher the potential for future accomplishments,” Qin Huai whispered to himself. The title of the future king now held a profound significance to him.

He hastened his pace, looking for Xiang Mingfeng, Fang Huo, and the others. Luckily, he quickly caught up with Fang Huo, who was on the trail of an old lunatics’ footprints.

“Brother Zhou?” Fang Huo looked surprised. “You…”

“Is Brother Xiang in the level-one array?”

“Xiang Mingfeng, that guy, hasn’t given up yet. He could be in a level-one or level-two array… He’s certainly persuading those top-tier geniuses to give it another try.” Fang Huo smiled wryly. “I wonder what his reaction would be if he suddenly realized the rules of the slaughter in the illusion realm.”

He still found this loophole somewhat ridiculous even when he thought about it. “At that time, none of the young or old geniuses from Qingzhou considered this.”

“It’s not that those old geniuses didn’t consider it,” Qin Huai interjected.

“What do you mean by that, Brother Zhou?” Fang Huo inquired.

“Brother Fang, think about it. The levels in the bronze realm are stringent, with explicit rules for screening. The ultimate goal of the bronze realm is undoubtedly to select a specific genius,” Qin Huai replied.

“Since the objective is precise, the rules must be flawless.” Qin Huai was good at leading people along in conversation.

“Did you ever think about the rules?” Fang Huo asked, narrowing his eyes.

“Brother Fang, can you remember how long the battle in the illusion realm lasted? How many people fell before it ended?” Qin Huai asked.

Although he wasn’t part of the discussion, he could guess the scale of casualties. A significant number of people would perish instantly once the fight began.

Fang Huo was taken aback. “Many people did die before it ended.”

Suddenly, he realized what Qin Huai was implying. “Brother Zhou, are you suggesting… As long as enough people are eliminated within a certain time frame, the slaughter will continue?”

“You’re really smart, Brother Fang,” Qin Huai complimented.

“But in terms of insight, it’s still Brother Zhou who surpasses. How did you come up with this, Brother Zhou? As far as I remember, you weren’t there at that time, right?”

“I merely noticed that the great slaughter this time concluded unusually late and pondered Brother Xiang’s plan. That’s how I came up with this idea…” Qin Huai explained.

If they followed the train of thought sparked by Fang Huo’s insight, the condition to access the so-called level-zero array wasn’t to single-handedly eliminate everyone. Instead, was the goal to be the last person standing in the illusion realm?

If this was the case, the primary challenge would be establishing the conditions to extend the duration of the battle. This would drastically reduce the difficulty of the seemingly impossible task.

Qin Huai mentally organized the conditions to access the so-called level-zero array. Firstly and most importantly, one had to be the last person standing in the illusion realm. Secondly, by eliminating swiftly, they had to prolong the duration of the battle until they were the last one standing.

If this was indeed the case, then the previously impossible task would transform into an extremely difficult ultimate challenge. Was this the source of Yang Tianhan’s confidence?

“Brother Zhou, you’re a genius!” Fang Huo expressed in awe.

“Don’t worry, Brother Zhou. I’ll definitely help you,” Fang Huo assured, patting his chest. He then hesitated, “Should we let Xiang Mingfeng in on this?”

Qin Huai shook his head. “You know Brother Xiang’s personality better than I do. If we tell him about this, I guarantee that the entire bronze realm will know in a heartbeat.”
