[On the 25th day, you had taken three days to refine the high-grade magic sword based on the explanation in the Cultivation Encyclopedia.]
[On the 26th day, you continued cultivating and stabilizing your Cultivation Base.]
…
[On the 30th day, your cultivation reached the late stage of the Core Formation. The sky was covered with dark clouds. You already sensed that there would be heavenly thunder if you still did not leave the village. You charged all the way into the mountain. Within a day, you killed all the evil ghosts and the dismembered body parts of the male corpse and destroyed all the Evil God temples. You finally went up to the top of the mountain, killed the Oink God, and obtained the Breath Concealing Technique.]
[On the 31st day, you practiced the Breath Concealing Technique at the top of the mountain. With your exceptional talents, you soon mastered it with great success. With your Cultivation Talent “Born Arhat”, it evolved into the Heaven Shrouding Technique. Just as you were getting ready to leave the mountain to explore the Cultivation World, a golden eagle flew over from a distant horizon. A cultivator was standing on it. Only then did you realize that the cultivator was at the peak of the Core Formation stage. You fought with him, and he summoned three Evil Gods who were all at the Core Formation Stage. However, you killed all three of them one by one, and the cultivator eventually escaped after getting severely injured.]
[On the 32nd day, you finally walked out of the mountain. You felt that you were finally free to realize your full potential in this boundless cultivation world. You flew on your sword all the way until you arrived at a city, namely the Heavenly River City.]
[On the 33rd day, you found out that there were cultivation sects taking in disciples in the city. Since you had obtained the Heaven Shrouding Technique, you were not afraid of your physique getting exposed, so you chose to join the Noble Aspiration Sect.]
[On the 34th day, you intentionally revealed that you had reached the late stage of Core Formation as you wanted to join the Noble Aspiration Sect as a guest official. However, an Elder of the Noble Aspiration Sect thought that you must be a spy of some demonic sect. You fought with the Elder and killed him. However, you attracted the Lord of the Heavenly River City, and you died.]
[This Cultivation Simulation is over. You can permanently retain a Cultivation Talent and extract it into the real world.]
[The Cultivation Simulation has ended. Simulation Time: 34 days. System Cooldown Time: 34 minutes.]
“…”
Zhao Hao was speechless.
The Cultivation World was too terrifying. All he had ever wanted was to join a sect and cultivate in peace. However, he was treated as a spy of some demonic sect. “I won’t forget about this, Noble Aspiration Sect.” Zhao Hao thought to himself.
He opened his notepad and took notes of the Noble Aspiration Sect and the Lord of the Heavenly River City.
“Whew…” Zhao Hao let out a deep breath and finally calmed down. Coincidentally, the car had just arrived at the foot of Mount Gexian.
“Thank you, little brother.” Zhao Hao got up and thanked the soldier before he walked up Mount Gexian.
Mount Gexian had a history of over a thousand years.
It was noon, and many people were walking around. So, Zhao Hao would not lose his way since he just followed the main crowd and came to the front of the Gexian Temple.
Just like other ordinary temples, there were many stalls in front of the Gexian Temple.
[Ding! The White Cultivation Talent selection pool has expanded.]
[Ding! The Blue Cultivation Talent selection pool has expanded.]
[Ding! The Blue Cultivation Talent selection pool has expanded.]
[Ding! The White Cultivation Talent selection pool has expanded.]
Along the way, Zhao Hao had also captured a lot of talents, but all of them were ordinary talents.
Finally, he followed the crowd and entered the Gexian Temple. In the middle of the temple, there was a magnificent hall. However, it was not the Gexian Hall, but the Taoist Trinity Hall.
Zhao Hao’s eyes lit up immediately. He paid for the ticket and a few incense sticks before he walked in slowly. He could have chosen not to buy them, but Zhao Hao thought that he should still show some respect.
He walked through the door and saw that the entire Taoist Trinity Hall was very magnificent and luxurious.
Zhao Hao took the three incense sticks, lit them up, and stuck the incense sticks into the incense burner in front of the Taoist Trinity statue. He respectfully kowtowed three times to the statue.
Zhao Hao still respected Taoism very much.
[Ding! The Red Cultivation Talent selection pool has expanded.]
Zhao Hao was instantly overjoyed. He hurriedly kowtowed three more times to the Taoist Trinity statue to show his gratitude.
Only then did he get up and leave the Taoist Trinity Hall happily.
The old Zhao Hao would not have acted this way. However, since he had found out that there were ghosts and demons in this world, he had to be more careful.
Since there were ghosts and demons, if the Taoist Trinity really existed and he did not treat it with respect, wouldn’t the consequences be dire then…?
Zhao Hao had successfully completed his plan for today since he had obtained a Red Talent.
He hurriedly went down the mountain and took a taxi to a hotel. After having a simple lunch, he began another simulation.
“System, activate the Cultivation Simulator.”
[To enable the simulation, you may select only three of the following Cultivation Talents.]
[Currently available Cultivation Talents: “Reincarnated Hungry Ghost”, “Idiot Swordsman”, “Luck in Love”, “Contemporary Sleeping Dragon”…]
[Mahayana Holy Body (Red Talent): All your basic attributes increase by 300. This is a unique physique that is rarely seen in a million years. It is the strongest sacred body in the martial arts world. Your aptitude to practice all kinds of Cultivation Methods is the world’s highest. Your attack power is twice the original attack power.]
[Born Arhat (Red Talent): All your basic attributes increase by 300. You were born an Arhat, a candidate for a Buddha. You can comprehend Buddhist divine skills on your own and cultivate all kinds of Buddhist Cultivation Methods.]
[Heir of Asura (Gold Talent): Your killing intent increases by 130. You have the inherent skill of the Asura Clan. The impact of the damage you cause to ghosts increases by 300%.]
[Reincarnated Hungry Ghost (Purple Talent): Your physical qualities decrease by 50. The more you eat, the more power you gain.”
[Luck in Love (Orange Talent): Your charm increases by 66. Your attractiveness to the opposite sex significantly increases. You will often meet all kinds of beautiful women.]
[Contemporary Sleeping Dragon (Gold Talent): Your comprehension ability and intelligence increase by 100. You are the smartest person in the world, and you are proficient in the Eight Trigrams.]
“It’s a pity that no Red Cultivation Talent is available…” Zhao Hao sighed. Not only did he not get a Red Talent, but he did not even get a spiritual root. Luckily, with the talent “Contemporary Sleeping Dragon”, his comprehension ability would increase by 100.
“Start the simulation immediately.”
[The simulation starts now.]
[On the first day, you did not go and steal any cultivation manuals. Instead, you focused on cultivating the Bloody River Scripture at home.]
[On the second day, you had an extraordinary physique, but you could not endure your hunger anymore, so you snuck into the dwelling of Butcher Zhang and ate 20 chickens.]
[On the third day, Butcher Zhang took his pig slaughtering knife and searched the entire village for the chicken thief. However, he found no trace at all since you had already eaten all his chickens without even a hair left. You continued your cultivation.]
[On the fourth day, a bandit attacked the village. You turned him into blood with a single palm strike, and you gave the Iron-Slashing Sword that you obtained from him to a kid by the roadside.]
[On the fifth day, when you were cultivating, you suddenly heard a knock on the door. When you opened the door, you saw that it was an old granny with the kid carrying the Iron-Slashing Sword that you had given to him. The old granny was one of the villagers of this village, Granny Sun. She gave you five medicinal pills and told you that they were Vitality Strengthening Pills that could increase your cultivation speed.]
[On the sixth day, you swallowed a Vitality Strengthening Pill and entered the Foundation Establishment stage. However, you were extremely hungry, so you rushed into the dwelling of Butcher Zhang and ate 30 chickens. Butcher Zhang caught you red-handed and beat you to death on the spot. You died.]
