White Divine Crane

This was an era where everyone could experience various worlds through simulations.
When everyone reached 16 years old, they would receive a Life Lantern, which would grant them two free simulations.
During the free simulations, they had to break through the limits of humans in order to attain a bright future in reality. 
Otherwise, they would lose their Life Lanterns and they would slowly be corrupted by a black fog until they eventually died at a young age. 
Lin Qiye, who transmigrated to this era, failed his first simulation.
During his second simulation, by chance, he acquired a permanent SSS-rank talent - the Deduction of Genesis.
Lin Qiye’s first life: [When you were two, you had a sudden illness, causing you to have a deformed head and low IQ. When you were 15, your parents passed away. When you were 18, you died of an incurable disease.]
Lin Qiye commanded, “The Deduction of Genesis, deduce for me a way to transcend this life.”
[Congratulations for defying the heavens and successfully changing your fate. You acquired S rank in your evaluation. Your rewards are…]

His second life: [When you were 15, the spiritual aura on Earth rejuvenated. You did not awaken any talent while your childhood best friend achieved outstanding attainments with her awakened talent. When you were 16, you were killed by a stranger.]
Lin Qiye summoned, “The Deduction of Genesis!”
[You carefully made plans before the spiritual aura rejuvenated. Because of this, you defied the heavens and successfully changed your fate. You acquired S rank in your evaluation. Your rewards are…]

Worldwide Simulation Era

At the conference table, the atmosphere was oppressive.

The group of Diamond Level Practitioners all felt a little breathless.

"It's a good thing that they aren't attacking. If we delay for another two days, perhaps the reinforcements will arrive."

Some people were optimistic. However, none of the people present relaxed because of this.

The power of the demons had long been sufficient to crush Star City.

If they did not attack, it could only mean one thing. They must be planning some terrifying conspiracy.

Lin Qiye, sitting at the head of the table, finally stood up when he saw the Diamond Practitioners panicking.

"No matter what those demons want to do, we must not lose our footing first.

"I'll go and investigate. Don't act rashly."
