Chapter 111 Optimized Again

After Lieshan finished speaking, his gaze lingered on Chen Yuan for a moment: "With the talent you have shown, you would be a top seed even if you were in the Qianwu branch."

"It's a pity that you haven't been cultivating for long enough; you're only at the seventh level of the planetary stage."

Lieshan shook his head, his expression somewhat regretful: "There are still 5 years until the next Qianwu branch promotion assessment, while the core level assessment is only 7 years away."

"In such a short time, you probably can't even stabilize a star level."

"How can a mere few years of cultivation compare to decades or even centuries of others'?"

At this point, Lieshan noticed the expressions on their faces and changed the subject: "Of course, even if we miss this chance, there will be another one."

"For a star, a hundred years is nothing."

Chen Yuan nodded slightly: "Thank you for your guidance, Mr. Lieshan."

Seeing Chen Yuan's calm expression, Lieshan and Xia both understood his determination.

"It's alright."

Lieshan didn't say much. Although he wasn't optimistic, he wouldn't discourage anyone, just in case it actually worked.

"Alright, your training mission has been successfully completed, and the points should be credited to your account."

Upon hearing Lie Shan's words, Chen Yuan checked the information using his backup personal computer and nodded, "Received."

"Is there anything else that needs to be done?" Lieshan asked.

"there is none left."

Chen Yuan shook his head. "Then I'll take my leave."

"Let's go together." Xia tugged at Chen Yuan's sleeve, then turned to Lieshan and said, "Goodbye, Uncle Lieshan."

After leaving the meeting room, the two walked out of the dark gray building side by side.

On the way back to training camp.

Xia suddenly said, "Um—I think with your abilities, you'll definitely pass this assessment."

"Uncle Lieshan is a very direct person, so don't take it to heart."

Perhaps because she doesn't often comfort people, Xia spoke these two sentences haltingly.

Chen Yuan couldn't help but smile: "Mr. Lieshan is telling the truth. The time allotted for this promotion assessment was indeed a bit too short."

"But for me, that's enough."

"So you don't need to worry that I'll be discouraged."

Looking at Chen Yuan's confident smile, Xia felt her cheeks burning for no reason and could only softly hum in response.

For the rest of the journey, the two remained silent.

Upon reaching the foot of Ziyao Peak, before parting, Xia suddenly said, "By the way, before I sell 'Nine Luminaries Body'..."

"Don't reveal the secret technique to anyone yet."

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone until I hear you've sold it."

Chen Yuan understood her concerns and readily agreed.

"And one more thing—" Xia hesitated for a moment, "What's your virtual universe ID? I'll let you know once I've finished dealing with things here."

Chen Yuan thought it made sense. After all, once the two of them reached the Hengxing level, they would most likely not be on Ziyao Star anymore, so adding a virtual universe friend would make it easier to communicate.

So Chen Yuan revealed his virtual universe ID.

"I've got it."

Xia nodded, then hesitated before saying, "Goodbye then?"

"goodbye."

Chen Yuan waved his hand: "Let's keep in touch."

"Okay."

After Xia finished speaking, she turned and left, her back view appearing somewhat hurried.

Chen Yuan returned to his residence from another direction.

He immediately logged into the virtual universe, went straight to the treasure vault page, and decisively placed an order for two 'S-grade bloodline evolution agents'.

The moment he clicked to confirm the payment, a striking red warning suddenly popped up on the screen:

[WARNING: Multiple purchases of 'S-type Bloodline Evolution Agent' have been detected. Please read the purchase instructions carefully before making payment.]

Chen Yuan clicked to view the details, which mainly explained that the effect of the evolution agent would decrease with each use, and that the first use would be the most effective, so it was advised to purchase with caution.

Scroll to the very bottom of the page, and there it is clearly marked in blood-red font:

[Note: This product is restricted and resold by students. Any violation will result in immediate death!]

The graphic word "death" looked quite intimidating, but Chen Yuan remained unmoved. After all, he bought the evolution agent to optimize its use and never intended to resell it.

Ignoring the warnings, click "Confirm Purchase" without hesitation.

[Points -1100]

Remaining points: 8987

Purchase successful, delivery expected within 3 hours.

So Chen Yuan returned to reality and waited patiently. About an hour and a half later, the domain lord "Si Kun" appeared outside the door.

"Chen Yuan, the evolution agent you purchased has arrived."

At the entrance of the manor, Si Kun handed over a silver briefcase that gleamed with a cold light.

"Thank you, Mr. Si Kun." Chen Yuan accepted the briefcase and thanked him politely.

"By the way, Chen Yuan."

Si Kun called out to Chen Yuan, who was about to turn around, and said with a serious expression, "You've read all the relevant information about the evolution agent, haven't you?"

"I've seen it."

Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, the evolution agent I bought is for my own use, I won't sell it to others."

"That's good." Si Kun smiled with satisfaction. "Then I won't bother you any longer."

He nodded and turned to leave.

Meanwhile, Chen Yuan returned to the manor and, after spending 1200 million kill points, submitted an evolution agent to the optimization list.

The optimization section is now completely full.

[Thousand Winds Secret Manual, remaining time: 58 days]

[Nine Luminaries Body, Remaining Time: 60 days]

[Intelligent optical brain, remaining time: 30 days]

[Bloodline Evolution Agent, Remaining Time: 40 days]

For this reason, although Chen Yuan had two evolution agents, he could only optimize them one by one because the optimization slots were full.

"It's time to focus on improving my cultivation," Chen Yuan murmured.

At this stage, he doesn't have many secret techniques to cultivate. Besides the Meditation Technique, there's only the Mad Storm Technique left.

He had already planned out the cultivation schedule for these two techniques.

So after he entered the nutrient pod to begin his cultivation, his consciousness logged back into the virtual universe.

He sent an email to Shi Lan, and soon he received a reply.

Simulation Room Functions —

Chen Yuan looked at the email and fell into deep thought.

Just now, he asked Shi Lan if there was a place in the virtual universe where a painful environment could be simulated.

This is because he wanted to test whether meditating in a state of pain could accelerate the improvement of his meditation skills.

Having had two successful experiences before, Chen Yuan wanted to take the initiative to try again.

Shi Lan then told him that there was a function in the virtual universe called a "simulation room," which, as the name suggests, could simulate any desired effect, including the painful experience he needed.

He already had the simulation room function in his castle in the Purple Peak plane, and as a special elite, he could use it for free.

Following Shi Lan's instructions in the email, Chen Yuan found a secret room in the castle that he had never been to before, which was the so-called "simulation room".

"How many more functions of this castle are I unaware of?"

Chen Yuan pushed open the heavy door and entered the room.

Looking around, I found that the area inside was not large, only about 30 or 40 square meters.

"Wind Sprite II, activate the simulation chamber."

Chen Yuan instructed the AI ​​assistant, and soon the dim room gradually lit up with a soft light.

"This is the simulation room—"

Chen Yuan didn't rush to start the painful simulation; instead, he first had an idea he wanted to verify.

"Simulate in front of me the Celestial Crystal, Obsidian, Ancient Demon Blood, and Azure Light Mother Stone."

He rattled off a list of rare materials.

Soon, the simulation room began to operate, bringing to life the materials Chen Yuan had described.

These lifelike treasures radiate a mesmerizing light; each one would be enough to drive a domain lord or even a world lord mad with desire if placed in the outside world.

Chen Yuan couldn't resist reaching out to touch it, only to find that his fingers passed right through the virtual image.

"As expected, the simulated objects are completely unreal; you can't even touch them."

He wasn't surprised.

After all, if he could touch it, he could simulate a treasure that he could eat and drink, and wouldn't he be able to taste it himself?

Think beautifully.

Even in the virtual universe, tasting the finest treasures and wines costs money, and it's not cheap.

Want to use a simulation room to play a white game? Dream on!

However, this was not Chen Yuan's original intention.

He stared at these illusory materials, silently asking himself, "System, can you scan and record the characteristic data of these materials?"

[Scanning complete. The above information has been saved to the database.]

Upon seeing the system's reply, a hint of surprise flashed in Chen Yuan's eyes.
