Chapter 128: Chapter128-Hold Out for Two and a Half Minutes? I’m Going to Kill Them All!

So, what was there to wait for!?

All he had to do was keep spending gold coins!

Caelan snapped his fingers again, carrying out the final empowerment for [Universal Simulation].

[Congratulations! You have spent 1 billion gold coins to empower Universal Simulation.]

[Friendly Reminder: This empowerment is the final empowerment.]

[Universal Simulation has gained a new effect — Elemental Affinity.]

[Elemental Affinity Effect: The simulated cells you create will possess an innate affinity for all kinds of elements, and can even be transformed into basic elemental forms.]

When he saw the description, Caelan froze for a moment. He had never expected the final empowerment of [Universal Simulation] to be this absurdly overpowered!

Didn’t this mean that, if he wanted to, he could create an entire elemental environment in an instant?

To a certain extent, even creating an elemental army was not entirely impossible!

Wait...

Didn’t that also mean he could theoretically consume mind power to produce gold coins endlessly?

Caelan’s heartbeat instantly quickened.

However, after testing it for himself, he gave up on that idea completely.

It wasn’t that it couldn’t be done—it was that doing so had no real meaning.

According to his calculations, even if he drained all of his mind power, he would only end up converting it into a few hundred gold coins.

It wasn’t even worth the trouble.

Still... the true value of [Elemental Affinity] should lie in simulation!

For example, before this, if Caelan wanted to impersonate someone else, he had no way of replicating that person’s elemental traits.

But now, he could mimic them effortlessly—not just in appearance, but even in aura, making the imitation completely identical.

On top of that, when [Elemental Affinity] was stacked together with [Ironclad Defense], it would not only greatly boost Caelan’s defense, but also max out his elemental resistance! 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Caelan even began to wonder—if he used his awakened skill and made [Divine Dragon] self-destruct, then created an energy-gathering zone around the target at the same time...

Wouldn’t that make the self-destruction even more powerful?

Conversely, if he wanted to expand the blast radius, [Elemental Affinity] still looked like it could be of great help!

In short, these 3 billion gold coins had absolutely been worth every penny!

Inside the Inner Forest Instance,

there was a massive mirror-like lake at the center of the forest.

This lake was extraordinarily peculiar. No matter how the outside environment changed, its surface never showed the slightest ripple.

It remained as calm as ever, like a perfect mirror.

But if one looked down at the lake from directly above, one would be shocked to find that it was impossible to see what lay beneath the surface. Instead, the lake gave off a metallic sheen.

It felt as though the lake contained not water at all, but mercury—or some other liquid metal.

Combined with the pitch-black trees surrounding it, the contrast between black and silver-white created an indescribably twisted and eerie sensation.

Even more scalp-tingling was the fact that the surrounding trees looked as though they had long since died. There was not a single leaf on any of them.

At this very moment, several hundred awakeners had gathered around the lake.

Without exception, every one of them was here because of the Inner Forest Instance.

Among these awakeners, even the weakest had already reached 5-Star.

They had all come here for the sake of their [Class Star Ascension Quest].

Hundreds of awakeners stood by the lakeside, all staring nervously at the waters below.

But what they saw reflected in the lake was not fish or other life beneath the surface—

it was the projection of their own hearts.

In the blink of an eye, these awakeners seemed to see the monsters they had once slain—creatures that had once been powerful, but had ultimately died by their hands.

Now those monsters bared their fangs and claws, as if they had been strengthened by some unknown force, as though they might burst out of the lake at any moment and seek revenge.

The sight left cold sweat breaking out across the backs of everyone present.

According to the information Caelan had gleaned from those fragments of history, the Inner Forest Instance had always been an extremely special place.

There were many monsters here, and nearly all of them lay hidden beneath the lake’s surface.

Legend had it that the lake preserved the souls of every monster slain. If an awakener entered this place, they would be summoned into another independent space.

And within that space, they would be forced to face every monster they had ever killed—

except those monsters would become even stronger than before!

"Damn it, why am I so unlucky? If I’d known I’d get a task like this, I never would’ve killed so many monsters back then."

"Hey, buddy. How many minutes do you have to stay in there?"

"Ten minutes!! It’s basically impossible. My best record is only two and a half minutes. After that, I just couldn’t hold on anymore. I had to leave the Instance to save my life."

"If it’s only ten minutes, then you’re lucky, okay? I have to survive in there for a full fifteen minutes!"

"Honestly, I’m thinking about giving up this task. But if I quit now, there’s a good chance I’ll roll an even harder one next time. That’d be even more troublesome."

The awakeners present did not act rashly. Instead, they all started chatting with the companions around them.

At this moment, they all deeply regretted it.

Had they known things would turn out like this, they never should have killed so many monsters in the first place!

Now, clearing their Star Ascension Quest had become incomparably difficult.

However, just as the discussion was heating up, a voice suddenly sounded beside their ears.

"I’m just saying—if, hypothetically, someone’s task was to wipe out every monster in this place... what would that mean?"

Hearing this question, the awakeners first froze, then gave helpless laughs and shook their heads.

"Brother, stop joking around. Kill all the monsters in the Inner Forest Instance? How is that even possible?"

"To tell you the truth, forget killing them. If you can survive in this Instance for even a few more minutes, that’s already impressive."

"Brother, I’m telling you, stay calm. Do you not understand the Inner Forest Instance? Let me explain—in here, every monster you’ve killed before gets strengthened, and its level rises to match your own!"

"In short, the monsters you’re facing now are nothing like the ones you remember killing. You could say they’ve undergone a complete transformation. They’ll appear in far stronger forms, so I’d advise you to be careful. Don’t forget—you’re facing a whole swarm, not just one or two!"
