Chen Siling shook her head frantically, unable to believe it: "It's not like that, it's not like that, my Brother Yun isn't like that..."
"Brother Yun clearly told me that his brotherly affection for me is just like my affection for him..."
He froze; he finally realized the similarity of the situation.
He stared into your eyes, and saw only indifference and murderous intent.
You calmly said, "My brother Chen died long ago while being hunted by the Celestials, and you are merely a monster who possessed his body and made him repulsive!"
Chen Siling tried to speak, but his mouth was firmly sealed shut—you couldn't be bothered to listen to anything, whether it was begging for mercy or something else.
That "Ling'er" probably didn't even have a chance to say a few words back then. Compared to this guy calling for you in the mountains for most of the night, the young girl waited bitterly for nearly eighty years, until she was very old.
"I will kill you, you monster, and bury my dead brother Chen in this beautiful place." You raised your hand in declaration, then brought it down.
His severed head's eyes are still turning towards you... You step on it, channeling your vital energy into it to forcibly prolong its life.
A moment later, you captured several elephant-like beasts, tossed the heads and bodies, still retaining some consciousness, behind them, and began pressing on the giant elephants' bellies to help them expel waste.
[You meant what you said you'd do with him; if you said you'd bury it properly, you meant you'd bury it properly.]
[In 2889, after only nine years in an environment perfectly suited for your cultivation, your cultivation level has greatly improved, comparable to that of other celestial beings who have cultivated for fifty years.]
[Aside from those with a sacred body, ordinary celestial beings can reach the mid-stage in about two hundred years through their own efforts, and the late stage in another six hundred years... Therefore, various cultivation resources will play a significant role.]
[You didn't spend time collecting cultivation resources: instead of fighting tooth and nail for them, you should have focused on leveling up steadily. You could even use any spare cash to have some fun.]
[In 2894, your Dharmakaya will be eleven-seventeenths complete.]
[Its essence is 5.53 times stronger, and it can mobilize the spiritual energy of heaven and earth within a radius of 700 meters, making it slightly stronger than a newly promoted mid-stage Celestial Being.]
Although its actual strength is far less than nine times that of the last simulation, its combat power has barely caught up.
The essence is the all-round improvement of various qualities, but Yun Shou's cultivation level of a celestial being is not.
In the Celestial Realm, the increase in the range of spiritual power is greater than that of physical strength, which is why Yun Jiu's "mobilization of seven hundred meters of vital energy" barely matches Yun Ba's "six hundred meters".
In 2895, you thought you could peacefully level up for another six or seven years, then return to your "Yunyang Realm" and defeat the alien demons.
But someone came knocking on the door—a Celestial Being.
"Brother, have you ever seen this person? I am Bi Wenjun of the Misty Sect, and this young man is one of our sect's innate disciples."
[Bi Wenjun used her elemental power to construct a painting before you; it was none other than Chen Siling.]
"This is the boy. We let him go down the mountain, but now the ten-year period has passed, and he has vanished without a trace."
"And his destination is precisely in the Hangtian Territory area," Bi Wenjun said slowly. Suddenly, he gained control of the surrounding energy, and you quickly seized a portion of that control as well.
[You feel that although this person from the Misty Sect is at the mid-stage of the Celestial Realm, he is not stronger than you, and you can fight him.]
You asked in a low voice, "Have you misunderstood something?"
Bi Wenjun shook his head: "You really don't understand the methods of our Misty Sect."
Yun Shou: "..."
So what method was it?
Ask him, Ninth Brother!
Now that things have come to this point, you stop hiding anything and ask directly, "So what method did you use?"
"You admit it so readily!" Bi Wenjun laughed angrily. "But I had no idea what crime my disciple had committed to be attacked and killed by a celestial being!"
"It's because your apprentice is inhuman." Explain: "...Haven't you realized what kind of person you've taught all these years?"
[If you hadn't found out that the Misty Sect has a decent reputation these past few years, unlike the arrogant Luo Feng Sect, you wouldn't have bothered to explain further.]
[Bi Wenjun remained silent: "...Seeing him so focused on cultivation, I assumed Kongyu (Chen Siling's original name) had already severed all ties with the mortal world. Who knew he would accumulate such negative thoughts and become ill, resorting to such twisted acts?"]
"However, I cannot entirely trust your one-sided account, brother." Bi Wenjun's hostility lessened, but he remained vigilant: "Could you come with me to Shu Nian City to test the truth?"
Human cities typically have "lie detectors," officially called "Truth Platforms," which can detect even the mental fluctuations of overlords (but only for lie detection, not mind reading).
"You have a clear conscience, so of course I agree," he then asked, "So, how exactly did you determine that I was the one who killed Chen Kongyu?"
[Bi Wenjun: "Pretend to make a move, then try to trick me with a few more words."]
Yun Shou: "..."
How sinister you are, you Misty Sect!
You have come to Treeyear City, a city built on a giant tree... but not a city in a tree, but rather on a flat tree stump.
[It is said that this "Heavenly Tree" was cut down by a supreme being several eons (tens of thousands of years) ago, leaving only a flat cross-section of the stump with a diameter of over a thousand miles. Therefore, Tree City is no different from a city built on flat ground, and is not a three-dimensional city.]
[You proceed to the Hall of Inquiry, located slightly south of the city center. Upon entering, request to use the Truth-Seeking Platform to verify authenticity. Just as the clerk is about to perform the procedure, he glances at you, and his expression changes.]
[Then the city lord rushed over and updated your identity document, elevating you directly from a young man from a small village to the Celestial Realm.]
[Everyone: "You mean, you were an ordinary person 22 years ago, and now, after a series of adventures and fortuitous encounters, you've risen to the highest level, reaching the realm of celestial beings?"]
