One Trait Draw Per Year Even Simulations Count

[The black stone the Star Apes gave you for rescuing their First Prince, after collecting dust in the warehouse for over a hundred years, was finally about to come in handy.]

[The things from the Simulation can’t be brought out.]

[No matter how good this thing was, not using it before death was completely pointless.]

[Ji Baiming, this eight-stage Immortal Lord, couldn’t defeat Jin Hai. You didn’t believe that even another Immortal King couldn’t take him down, especially since this was an ancient divine beast race!]

[However, crushing this black stone wasn’t easy.]

[Though it was called “crushing,” it was actually unsealing.]

[Inside this stone was an Immortal King of the Star Ape clan.]

[Sun Xiaosheng and the others had given you a set of spells back then, used for the unsealing.]

[The technique wasn’t complicated, but it required a massive consumption of divine power and a little bit of time.]

As soon as Jin Hai saw the black stone in your hand, he made his move immediately, showing extreme caution toward it.Not only did he activate his own law again, but he also directly used his racial talent—Dragon Transformation!

”ROAR!!”

The earth-shaking dragon roar made everyone turn their heads in shock and terror.

Jin Hai transformed into a golden divine dragon tens of thousands of meters long.

Golden light gathered in the dragon’s maw, and he was about to blast you to death on the spot!

Jin Hai moved too fast; Ji Baiming had no time to block for you.

In that critical moment of extreme danger, a flash of inspiration struck you.

”ROAR!!!”

A shocking scene unfolded—you also transformed into a dragon!

A divine dragon covered in crimson scales, with flames beneath its feet like auspicious clouds!

In terms of length, you were no match for Jin Hai.

This was probably related to the difference in cultivation realms.

Your move absolutely terrified the Peace Force soldiers present.

Dragon Transformation? This was clearly the Holy Dragon Clan!

What was the Holy Dragon Clan?

The noblest race in the Celestial River local galaxy!

Any member of the Holy Dragon Clan was born with an aristocratic status above all other races.

Let alone attacking a Holy Dragon—just touching one or even looking at one could be judged a crime!

And just like that, the entire Peace Force stopped fighting.

What was there to fight?

After all this, it turned out to be an internal conflict among their own people.

Now, even if they said no mercy was to be shown in life-or-death situations, if someone actually killed a Holy Dragon, they’d definitely be found guilty.

Jin Hai’s attack also halted.

He was extremely confused.

He was certain you weren’t from the Holy Dragon Clan. He didn’t know every Holy Dragon at your level, but he could confirm that there was no such figure like you on Vermilion Violet Star.

Yet strangely enough, no matter whether he used Divine Arts or laws, he couldn’t see through your disguise.

It was as if you really were from the Holy Dragon Clan.

Ji Wuqing and Ji Baiming were also baffled.

“Nephew, are you a double agent?”

“No, Chen Yi is definitely human. This is probably one of those weird tricks of his again...”

Jin Hai questioned you, but you didn’t offer any explanation—you just sped up the unsealing spell.

To be cautious, Jin Hai decided not to go for the kill against you, opting to capture you alive instead.

“Seize this human for me!”

No one moved.

“You bunch of idiots! There’s no way he’s from our noble Holy Dragon Clan!”

Still, no one moved.

Jin Hai was so furious he wanted to curse.

“Capture Ji Wuqing!”

This time, everyone moved.

You couldn’t provoke the Holy Dragon Clan, but humans were fair game.

You reverted to human form and focused on finishing the unsealing.

Though Jin Hai wasn’t going for the kill, he was still trying to stop you from unsealing it.

Ji Baiming, boosted by the ”Leader Aura,” fought with all his might to hold him back.

Fortunately, the Ji family had deep foundations—defensive, life-saving, control, and illusion techniques, all kinds of divine arts emerged in an endless stream.

Ji Baiming couldn’t defeat Jin Hai, but he could buy you some time.

Ji Wuqing took on the Peace Force.

She was already an Immortal Lord, and with the ”Leader Aura” supporting her, the Peace Force posed no threat to her.

The unsealing process didn’t last long.

Accompanied by a faint cracking sound that everyone could still hear, the unsealing was complete.

“Crack...”

The small black stone in your hand was now covered in countless fissures.

The black stone slipped out of your control and flew into the sky on its own.

From those cracks surged black beams of light that stretched infinitely in every direction!

“BOOM!!!”

With a thunderous roar, the stone shattered completely, and the black light blotted out the sky, covering even the sunlight.

Within those black beams, a tall figure was gradually becoming clear.

For some reason, at that moment, the classic theme song of the Great Sage—”The Little Knife Society Overture”—seemed to echo in your ears.

Jin Hai turned strands of human threads into chains, bound Ji Baiming, and tossed him aside.

Just as he was about to make a move against you, he saw the black stone’s unsealing unfold.

“Damn it, he’s out!”

The moment all the black beams converged and the figure went from blurry to clear.

An unstoppable force exploded outward, and the black shockwave swept through everything within ten thousand miles in all directions.

Men and horses from all sides were sent tumbling.

All the onlookers were caught in the blast, forced down from the sky to the ground.

The Peace Force fell into chaos, their formations completely shattered.

The Ji Family Ancestral Land suffered as well; not a single intact spot could be found in any city.

Only Jin Hai and Ji Baiming remained unaffected by the shockwave.

“Clang!”

It was the crisp sound of metal colliding.

The figure that emerged from the stone now held a pitch-black great rod in its hand.

You took a closer look.

This being looked very similar to the Star Apes—the same monkey-faced, thunder-beak appearance.

The difference was.

It didn’t have extra eyes or ears—just normal facial features and body proportions.

However, its monkey fur was jet black, and the skin on its face and hands was also dark.

But its eyes glowed red.

It wore a suit of armor, but it was tattered and torn, as if scorched by fire, full of gaps.

You couldn’t tell if the black marks on its face were from smoke.

“I’m... finally out!!”

The black monkey spoke its first words.

As soon as it opened its mouth, a wisp of green smoke blew out, as if it had really just been burned by fire.

There was no time to admire the divine monkey’s emergence—any longer and you’d be in trouble, because Jin Hai was charging again.

“Black Monkey King! Help me take down this Holy Dragon Immortal Lord!”

You were so anxious smoke was coming out of your nostrils, but the Black Monkey King just lay down on a black cloud, turned the great iron rod in its hand into the size of a toothpick, and used it to pick its nose while staring at you.

“Kid, who the hell are you?”

“I’m the one who unsealed you! You owe me!”

“Bullshit! I was already supposed to be released. You just opened the door for me—how is that a favor?”

“Holy crap! That Sun Xiaosheng screwed me over!”

You had actually suspected this might happen. Those cunning monkeys would never just give you an Immortal King for nothing.

So it really was just a favor done out of convenience!
