Chapter 633: Life Simulation
Hundred Spirit City, as the capital of the Hundred Spirit Continent, boasted a grandeur that was unmatched across the continent. It was bustling with activity and unparalleled prosperity. Moreover, the super teleportation array that connected the Hundred Spirit Continent with other continents was also located within this city.
Inside a room in Hundred Spirit City, Xiao Ming leaned back against a well-crafted chair as he lifted a teacup to take a sip.
After agreeing to Qing Yanjing's request to follow him the day before, he took the two women to Hundred Spirit Imperial City at her suggestion to use the city's super teleportation array.
However, since it was already late, they were in no hurry to leave and decided to stay at an inn to rest for the night. This also allowed the two women to go out and gather some information.
Of course, during this time, Xiao Ming also took the opportunity to understand the upgraded features of the simulator.
The functionality was basically the same as the first version of the simulator: Simulate life and then select three items that would appear in it.
However, after the upgrade, the interval between simulations changed from seven days to one month, and the final limit of the simulation was extended to one hundred years.
This meant that Xiao Ming could only simulate once a month. Although this was a loss in terms of frequency, the simulator now guaranteed the quality of the drawn items. At the very least, it would not produce useless items like weeds.
The items drawn were guaranteed to be useful to those at least two realms below him.
In the first version of the simulator, the time unit was days, whereas in version 2.0 it could be set to years, months, or days, and it was more likely to show the most important event of the selected time unit.
The result was a significant increase in the rarity and value of items in the simulator. The disadvantage was that many details could be overlooked, which meant that less information was obtained.
If there were still concerns about the rarity of the items obtained, the simulator offered another option.
This was to accumulate simulation attempts over a year. By combining twelve attempts into one, the simulation results would guarantee that at least one of the three choices would be among the top ten most valuable items encountered during the simulation.
It was considered a safety net. Moreover, by choosing such a guaranteed item, he could have some control over it, or at least he could be sure he wouldn't die the moment he drew it.
"Hoo~"
With a light sigh, Xiao Ming put down his teacup and began to ponder.
'Considering that I haven't simulated life in ten years, this first simulation is essentially a combination of twelve simulations. Good news indeed.'
'Taking advantage of Qing Tan and Qing Yanjing's absence, I should start the simulation now. Otherwise, the items might be difficult to explain. But what unit of time should I choose for the simulation: year, month, or day?'
Choosing days as the unit would mean a higher number of items, but the entries would be entirely random. Years and months, on the other hand, were more likely to contain significant events and thus higher-value items.
However, past experience told Xiao Ming that the daily unit could yield items not only from daily interactions, but also from things he happened to be thinking about that day. Switching to years or months significantly reduced the likelihood of this happening.
Unless it was a special circumstance, after all, who would have their most important event of a year or a month be merely a fleeting thought?
Nevertheless, the thoughts during the simulation were also unpredictable, and over a hundred years, this span could ensure access to items and information of a sufficiently high quality encountered in his daily life.
It was a situation with its own pros and cons.
Xiao Ming slowly tapped his fingers on the tea table and quickly made his choice.
"Life Simulator?"
A familiar voice sounded in his mind.
[Ding! A simulation opportunity for the host has been detected. Would you like to start the simulation?]
Xiao Ming felt somewhat sentimental as he replied, "Start the simulation."
[Please select the simulation mode: Year, Month, Day.]
"Month."
[Ding! Selection successful.]
[Simulation begins—]
[Month 1: You successfully enter the Great Thousand World and receive information about the Dimension Fetus in the Northern Heavens Continent of the Great Thousand World.]
[Month 2: You purchase a lot of medicinal ingredients to refine pills, as well as various tiers of Spiritual Arts, Sovereign Celestial Body cultivation methods, and information about your companions in the Merchant Continent. You gain nothing in terms of information about your companions, but you achieve great success with the Spiritual Arts and acquire the Blood Shadow Celestial Body, which is ranked 99th in the Sovereign Celestial Body Ranking.]
[Month 3: You arrive in the Skylaw Continent, where you are suddenly attacked by an unknown force. Among the attackers are three individuals who have reached the Heavenly Sovereign Stage. You discover their target seems to be your companion, Qing Yanjing. You are not happy about this and annihilate the attackers. In the process of protecting Qing Yanjing, you notice that she seems to be enjoying being protected by you.]
[Month 4: You begin to restore the Spiritual Energy within your body.]
[Month 5: Your realm recovers to that of a Spirit Grade Heavenly Sovereign and triggers the Heavenly Sovereign Tribulation. After you have successfully overcome the tribulation, two late-phase Spirit Grade Heavenly Sovereigns visit you. They tell you about the power struggles in the Skylaw Continent and how the Heavenly Sovereigns should not interfere.]
...
[Month 60: You finally find your companions, but only your Ancestor Xiao Xuan and your father-in-law Zhu Kun are there, while Pill Emperor is missing. Confused, you ask about the reason. It turns out they had encountered a Spirit Grade Heavenly Sovereign; both were seriously injured but managed to flee, while Pill Emperor was captured due to his uniqueness.
Since the Pill Emperor was useless to the Heavenly Sovereign, he was used as a reward for his subordinates, and even a Pill Competition was organized. By the time you learn of this, a long time has passed since the contest, and it's feared that Pill Emperor has already been completely consumed…
Enraged by this news, you inquire about the location of the other party's forces and set off to that continent. There, you obliterate their forces and scatter their ashes. You obtain the 57th-ranked Sovereign Celestial Body, the Nine Ominous Beast Body, the 52nd-ranked Thunder Nether Nine Abyss Body, a Divine Ability — Wind Summoning Art, a Spirit Grade Peerless Saint Artifact — Wind Summoning Fan, and another Spirit Grade Peerless Saint Artifact — Wind Avoiding Boots.]
...
[Month 75: You are in closed-door cultivation.]
...
[Month 125: You are not very satisfied with your current Sovereign Celestial Body and begin to forge your own. Even if it doesn't compare to the five Primal Celestial Bodies, it must be stronger than ordinary ones. You spend a month in seclusion without making any progress.]
[Month 128: You create the Myriad Flames Annihilating Heavenly Body based on countless Heavenly Flames after half a month of contemplation. According to your estimation, this Celestial Body should rank within the top thirty Sovereign Celestial Bodies, yet you are not satisfied.]
[Month 150: After undergoing trials across the continent, your father-in-law Zhu Kun also advances to the Spirit Grade Heavenly Sovereign.]
[Month 232: You begin to create a new Celestial Body again after handling the affairs of the Heavenly Court. Summarizing your past experiences and using countless spiritual items, laws, and your own techniques as a foundation, you create the Myriad Spirits Floating World Body. In your estimation, this Celestial Body ranks just below the Primal Celestial Bodies. It can use myriad spirits to incubate worlds within it, and it can evolve by devouring continents. Although you feel that this Celestial Body might have some imperfections, you can't pinpoint them.
Of course, this Celestial Body is already enough for your use. You believe that by devouring enough continents, one day you might even have a Firmament Board within yourself. Excited by this thought, you find ten abandoned continents to devour.]
[Month 340: You devour twenty continents.]
[Month 351: You continue to seek out continents to devour. Meanwhile, you feel a sense of uneasiness, but you don't give it too much thought. However, when you are devouring the fifth continent, you are suddenly struck by lightning and suffer severe injuries...]
