Global Catastrophe: I Begin to Evolve from an Ancient Tree Chapter 157: Simulated Battle

"Simulated Battle!"

In the Celestial Yang Sacred Land, where Zhang Ming was cultivating in solitude, he suddenly sensed a subtle feeling that instinctively made him look at the Divine Kingdom chat group.

When his gaze fell onto the Divine Kingdom chat group, Zhang Ming realized that at so point, a new interface feature had appeared.

Simulated Battle!

These four words stirred Zhang Ming’s mind,

and when his Divine Thought focused on it, he imdiately understood the purpose of this new feature.

Soon.

Zhang Ming felt the scene change, and he was directly transported into a cosmic starry sky.

In front of him appeared a seemingly illusory interface displaying the selection of battle targets, with options ranging from tier one to tier seven, all available.

Unexpectedly.

Zhang Ming’s gaze fell on tier seven, where there were only two options.

Star Beast (Tier Seven Low Grade)

Saint Shenxiao (Tier Seven High Grade)

"Saint Shenxiao?"

When Zhang Ming saw this na, he was montarily taken aback.

He was naturally very familiar with this na.

Saint Shenxiao, Yu Qiankun — the first instance dungeon he ever encountered was left by him.

Although Zhang Ming later entered so other instance dungeons, none matched the one left by Saint Shenxiao.

"It’s said that Saint Shenxiao could compete with a young Great Emperor. It’s a perfect chance to see how big the gap is between us!"

Zhang Ming was eager to try.

He possessed the Fighting Saint Body and had reached tier six low grade, and his strength was undoubtedly among the top in the young generation of the Celestial Yang Sacred Land.

In the current situation where Saints have not erged, Zhang Ming also wanted to know how much he differed from the legendary saintly powers.

"Simulating Saint Shenxiao requires a million Contribution Points?"

Just as Zhang Ming’s thought settled, the Divine Kingdom chat group gave the corresponding prompt. He hesitated only a mont before agreeing.

After all, the present wasn’t like the past; a million Contribution Points were no longer significant to him.

As a tier six powerhouse and backed by the entire Celestial Yang Sacred Land, Zhang Ming had nurous ways to earn Contribution Points.

Though a million Contribution Points weren’t trivial, they were certainly not a big deal.

As the million Contribution Points were consud, Saint Shenxiao was born from the void, releasing an aura as terrifying as an abyss. Its presence on Zhang Ming made his bones feel as if they were ringing, as if enduring so dreadful pressure.

This terrifying pressure made Zhang Ming’s expression change instantly.

Yet, before he could fully process it, Saint Shenxiao shattered the void with a single palm, and Zhang Ming roared, unleashing the power of the Fighting Saint Body, his fists pounding fiercely against the void.

However.

In front of a saint, a True Monarch was like an ant.

With the crushing fall of Saint Shenxiao’s palm, Zhang Ming was imdiately killed on the spot.

...

Simulation Ended!

When he exited the simulated battle, Zhang Ming couldn’t recover for a long ti, his mind constantly echoing with the power of that palm.

After a long while, Zhang Ming exhaled deeply, a bitter smile appearing on his face.

"So... this is the power of a saint-level master!"

Saint Shenxiao’s might was far more terrifying than he had imagined; his tier six low-grade cultivation was entirely like papier-mâché in front of him.

Bearing the Fighting Saint Body, Zhang Ming was confident that his power wasn’t top-notch but certainly not weak in the current Celestial Yang Sacred Land.

Even facing other tier six complete powerhouses, he was confident in holding his own.

However.

Such strength ant nothing against Saint Shenxiao, crushed in a single palm, highlighting the horror of tier seven high-grade.

Subsequently, Zhang Ming looked at the tier seven low-grade Star Beast and started another simulation.

Not long after.

Zhang Ming exited the simulated battle again.

Unlike the previous instant defeat by Saint Shenxiao, this ti Zhang Ming lasted a few more breaths in front of the Star Beast before being slain.

At this point.

Zhang Ming completely abandoned the notion of competing with a Saint.

"The gap between tier seven and tier six is too vast. To genuinely contend with such powers, I must at least reach tier six complete."

Whether it was the Star Beast or Saint Shenxiao, the pressure on Zhang Ming was imnse. The two were on completely different levels.

Nevertheless.

These two battles gave Zhang Ming so understanding of the strength of tier seven Saints, and he paid significant attention to the newly erged simulated battle feature.

The original Divine Kingdom chat group was already profoundly mysterious; the introduction of the simulated battle function further reshaped Zhang Ming’s understanding of it.

It’s known that Saint Shenxiao had fallen long ago, yet the Divine Kingdom chat group could simulate him; such thods are truly astonishing.

Zhang Ming even suspected if the Divine Kingdom chat group had the ability to traverse ti and space, capturing Saint Shenxiao before his fall to be used as a simulation target.

No matter the case.

Such ans had already surpassed Zhang Ming’s expectations.

Subsequently, he once again entered the simulated battle, this ti without looking at the tier seven interface, as saint-level powerhouses were beyond his current ability to contend with.

Opening the tier six interface, many nas caught his eye.

Among these, Zhang Ming saw so familiar nas, such as East Peak Master Yin Hong of the Celestial Yang Sacred Land, Saint Master Gu Tiangang of the Ancient Wilderness Sacred Land, Saint Master Qiu Chengfeng of the Celestial Yang Sacred Land, Saint Master Ye Taixu of the Taixu Sacred Land, and others.

"It’s said that Gu Tiangang possesses the Ancient Wilderness Sacred Body, let now see how I asure up against the tier six complete Ancient Wilderness Sacred Body!"

Zhang Ming quickly focused on Gu Tiangang’s na, and in an instant, ten thousand Contribution Points vanished.

As Gu Tiangang’s form erged from the void, Zhang Ming imdiately launched an attack.

Right from the outset.

Zhang Ming gave it his all.

The manifested Gu Tiangang was equally swift, responding with the seasoned strategies of a battle-hardened veteran.

"Boom——"

In the void, the two figures clashed ferociously, whether Gu Tiangang or Zhang Ming moved at extre speed, leaving behind afterimages that lingered for a long ti.

Suddenly.

The afterimages dissipated.

Gu Tiangang broke through the Protective Gang Qi with a punch, hitting Zhang Ming’s chest hard, the overwhelming force causing his chest to cave in and even shattering his heart.

Zhang Ming’s form instantly turned into a stream of light and vanished, his mind returning to his essence.

"Truly befitting the title Unrivaled True Monarch, Gu Tiangang’s power is indeed formidable!"

Recalling the recent battle, a gleam shone in Zhang Ming’s eyes; Gu Tiangang’s strength was truly terrifying, wholly suppressing Zhang Ming from start to finish.

Although this battle didn’t end as swiftly as those against the tier seven opponents, it didn’t last long either.

After a brief rest, Zhang Ming re-entered the simulated battle, this ti targeting other tier six powerhouses as another fierce battle erupted.
