Chapter 237: Simulation, [Red Upgrade Trait]
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Han Zhao left the courtyard and used the Bone Shrinking Technique to completely change his appearance. In a few breaths, he became a hunched black-robed old man.
He did not change his appearance when he attacked because he wanted Jin Wuxin and He Xuan to understand the situation.
Han Zhao came to the dock by the Long Forest River and looked at the prefecture capital that he could not see. He thought to himself, “I can’t go back yet. I have to wait for a while.”
Jin Wuxin and He Xuan’s deaths would soon be discovered.
At that time, he could create a rift between the two factions and buy him time to become stronger.
Returning to Yuan Chang County’s prefecture capital at this time would easily arouse suspicion.
“Wait for me. It’ll be soon.” Han Zhao retracted his gaze and boarded a passenger ship heading to the port.
He entered the cabin and closed the door tightly. He began to check his gains from this battle.
Lung Metal (28%), Liver Wood (28%), Kidney Water (28%), Heart Fire (28%),
Spleen Earth (28%), Upper Dantian Lightning (5%)
Heart—Dragon Blood Sac (Blood Qi 100%)
Liver—Dragon Blood Sac (Blood Qi 100%)
On the attributes panel of the system interface, the refined Five Elements Qi in He Xuan’s body was completely absorbed by him, increasing by 5%.
He had taken another big step forward from the Three Qi Grandmaster Realm.
“If I consume a high-grade Five Elements Pill, it will take about four months to break through to the Three Qi Grandmaster Realm.”
“But if I refine a top-grade pill, the time can be shortened a little more.
Moreover…”
Han Zhao thought to himself.
He had already controlled the Furious Flood Dragon Gang. Refining the Five
Elements Pill required old medicinal herbs, but he had enough Five Elements Divine Sand.
While consuming the Five Elements Pill, absorbing the Five Elements Qi in the Five Elements Divine Sand could shorten the breakthrough time.
Jin Wuxin’s Demon Crystal had abundant Yin energy, which was probably enough to simulate two or three times.
Life Nurturing Technique (Fifth Level Entry Level 22%, Upgradeable; Special
Effect: Body Strengthening Level 15, Pure Yang Level 9, Qi Seeding Level 7, Life Extension 1000 years)
At this moment, Han Zhao focused his attention on the Life Nurturing Technique cultivation method.
He Xuan’s blood qi had declined greatly, but he was still a grandmaster at the Five Qi Perfection realm. His true qi had not decreased greatly, and 20% of his true qi was not little.
“In any case, the Life Nurturing Technique is not picky. He Xuan’s true qi can be directly converted.”
Han Zhao sat cross-legged on the bed in the cabin with his five cores facing the sky. He transformed the True Qi he absorbed according to the cultivation path of the Life Nurturing Technique.
After a while, the surface of his body was covered by a milky white true qi light.
Soon, true qi transformed into Life Nurturing True Qi.
In the martial arts column, the attributes of the Life Nurturing Technique began to change.
Life Nurturing Technique (Fifth Level Greater Mastery 58%, Upgradeable;
Special Effect: Body Strengthening Level 17, Pure Yang Level 11, Qi Seeding
Level 9, Life Extension 1,600 years)
“It only broke through two small levels and the lifespan increased by 600 years?!”
Han Zhao’s pupils dilated.
If the situation allowed it, wouldn’t he be able to survive for more than a thousand years?
Pure Grandmaster Realm martial artists had a maximum lifespan of 160 years.
If he had the bloodline of an aristocratic family, his lifespan could be extended.
Transforming from a human into a half-demon could also extend one’s lifespan.
This was the main reason why the demons of the Longevity Sect and Nine Nether Mansion could not be eliminated.
Under the fear of death, many martial artists would give up everything.
In order to pursue a higher lifespan and stronger strength, he would not hesitate even if he had to become a demon.
Joining the Longevity Sect could not allow one to live forever, but it could really extend one’s lifespan.
When cultivated to a high level, the Blood Spirit Policy could greatly extend the peak of blood qi and achieve the effect of extending one’s lifespan.
Lastly, it was the spirit beast bloodline.
Every spirit beast easily had a lifespan of thousands of years. Martial artists who obtained the bloodline of a spirit beast could naturally extend their lifespan greatly.
“I can only make use of the high lifespan in the simulation.” Han Zhao sighed inwardly.
If he really had to live for so long in reality and watch his friends and family die of old age without being able to do anything, he did not know how to describe that feeling. At the moment, he had not experienced it. After all, he was only 23 years old.
Even though he had taught Xu Ling the improved Life Nurturing Technique and used the Qi Seeding Technique to help her cultivate, this cultivation technique was still very difficult to cultivate.
Xu Ling’s progress was not fast.
As for the original Life Nurturing Technique, he had already taught it to Lu Yi, but Lu Yi did not cultivate it.
This was because Lu Yi was already in a period of declining blood qi. Cultivating the Life Nurturing Technique required consuming blood qi. When he reached the Third Level, the lifespan he expended might be comparable to an additional 20 years of lifespan.
It was better to let Han Zhao refine more Blood Qi Pills to replenish Lu Yi’s declining blood qi.
After feeling sad for a while, Han Zhao came back to his senses.
He was helpless now because his level and strength were not enough. Perhaps there were many ways to extend his lifespan, but he did not know.
Not to mention anything else, just obtaining the recognition of a complete divine weapon and becoming a Weapon Master could greatly increase one’s lifespan.
Although the requirements to become a Weapon Master were very high, as long as Han Zhao could defeat the divine weapons, he did not believe that all the divine weapons were not afraid of death.
“It’s time to check the spoils of war again.” Then, Han Zhao took out two bags from his pocket.
Jin Wuxin and He Xuan each had a Sumeru Pouch. The girl just now did not even bring any money with her. She only contributed a short sword to him. The material was not bad, but it was a pity that it was not a divine weapon fragment.
Other than some money and daily necessities, there was only a ghost head saber in He Xuan’s Sumeru Pouch.
“Oh? This is… the Longevity Prolonging Pill?!”
Han Zhao found a pill formula that looked like a sheepskin scroll from He Xuan’s Sumeru Pouch. On it was a medicinal pill called the Longevity Prolonging Pill.
The main ingredient was a natural treasure called the Nine Bend Spirit Peach.
The Nine Bend Spirit Peach was known as the Small Immortal Peach. If one swallowed it directly, they could increase their lifespan by twenty years. If he refined the Longevity Prolonging Pill, it could increase his lifespan by up to 60 years.
Of course, most people would directly swallow the Nine Bend Spirit Peach after obtaining it and not refine pills.
This was because the Longevity Prolonging Pill was one of the more difficult high-grade pills. The failure rate of refining it was very high.
Fortunately, the peach core of the Nine Bend Spirit Peach could also be used to refine pills.
Han Zhao carefully checked the contents of He Xuan’s Sumeru Pouch. There was no peach core.
Then, he checked Jin Wuxin’s Sumeru Pouch. There was nothing there either. Instead, he found two Demon Crystals that contained a small amount of Yin energy.
“He Xuan gives me the feeling that he’s an old sh*t. Why would such a steady person look for Jin Wuxin alone? Unless…”
Han Zhao pondered.
When he arrived at the scene, Jin Wuxin was clearly preparing to eat He Xuan.
In addition, that girl looked a little similar to Xue Han and also had fire Binding Force. She was very likely a member of the Xue family.
“He was tricked!” Han Zhao reacted.
It was a pity. If Xue Han was also here, they could resolve it together.
However, he still had to rely on her and Gao Baijie to find the Sun Chasing Bow divine weapon fragment. There was no hurry.
Now was the time for the Nine Nether Mansion, the He family, and the Xue family to fight each other.
Thinking of this, Han Zhao put the pill formula and Demon Crystal into his Sumeru Pouch.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, he threw Jin Wuxin’s Sumeru Pouch into the surging river.
Demons had strange abilities. He did not know if there was any way to track them. Throwing away the Sumeru Pouch was the safest.
As for the things he left behind, they could be directly consumed. There was no need to worry about that.
“What a wonderful feeling!” Han Zhao held the Demon Crystal in his hand and kept absorbing the bone-chilling Yin energy inside.
If ordinary martial artists directly absorbed this thing, their meridians would definitely be frozen. However, he had Extreme Yang True Qi to protect his body, so he was not afraid at all in the short term.
Moreover, the Yin energy he absorbed would be quickly consumed by the system and would not last long.
Unless one day, he became rich and had so much Yin energy that he could not use it all.
However, the possibility was not high.
Next, Han Zhao began to check the Severing Karma Saber that was constantly throbbing.
Severing Karma Saber—Spirit Artifact
Grade: Unranked
Spirituality: 23% (Upgradeable)
Saber Intent: 17%
Effect: Bloodthirst Level 8) Illusion Level 1
After the Severing Karma Saber absorbed the blood qi of Jin Wuxin, a seven-veined demon, it obtained a huge improvement.
Its spirituality increased by 10%, and its saber intent increased by 1%.
The Bloodthirst Level had increased by three levels. Most importantly, there was also an additional “illusion” special effect. It should be Jin Wuxin’s innate ability.
“This Heavenly Saber Slaughter Divine Scripture is a little strange.”
Han Zhao recalled that after using the Purgatory Style just now, an inexplicable hostility appeared in his heart.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have used such a cruel method to kill the red-dressed girl. He would have definitely killed her with a slash and left.
“Let’s go back and simulate it.”
Han Zhao pondered for a moment and put away the Severing Karma Saber.
He sat cross-legged on the bed and closed his eyes to rest.
At dawn the next day, the merchant ship arrived at the port at the estuary.
Han Zhao alighted from the ship and walked to a place with no one around. He used the [One Person Thousand Transformations] Trait and turned into a crow. He swept across the sky and flew towards Furious Flood Dragon Island at a rapid speed.
When the sky turned dark, he quietly returned to the Furious Flood Dragon Hall and entered the secret chamber on the underground second level.
Only Shangguan Yunfei and he knew that it was the safest place to cultivate in seclusion.
In any case, he had already instructed Shui Jingfeng and Chu Anping. Recently, he would be cultivating in seclusion and leaving all the matters in the sect to them.
After the incident where Jin Wuxin came knocking on their door, the people of the Furious Flood Dragon Gang completely treated him as their leader. Everything was under control, so they could let go of their power without worry.
“System.”
[240 Notification Fragments have been collected. Do you want to synthesize the Trait?]
[Each synthesis will consume 110 Notification Fragments and 1,200 tael of gold. You will definitely obtain a one-time-use Basic Trait, Life Simulation.]
[The probability of obtaining White, Green, Blue, Purple, Orange, Red, Gold, and Platinum Trait is increased by 22%, 19%, 15%, 12%, 10%, 8%, 1%, 0.5% (independent calculation, not superimposed). ]
[There’s a low chance of obtaining a one-time fusion Trait of the corresponding quality and a one-time upgrade Trait.]
[Current Balance: 4,200 taels of gold]
“I even specially charged 3,000 taels of gold. I didn’t expect the price to increase so much.”
“12,000 taels of silver to simulate it once… It’s not a big deal for me now.”
“The Notification Fragment only increased by 10. It’s acceptable. Moreover, the Platinum Trait has also appeared. There’s also an additional upgrade Trait!” Han Zhao pondered.
He Xuan’s Sumeru Pouch alone had 80,000 taels of silver. In addition, Jin Wuxin’s Sumeru Pouch also had 30,000 taels of silver.
When the Furious Flood Dragon Gang’s business was on the right track, money would continuously pour into his pocket. “Synthesize. Beginning simulation.”
years old. You killed Jin Wuxin and He Xuan.]
[Three months later, Nine Nether Mansion sent one of the three Guardians, a second-level Snake-level expert, Xing Chen, to Cloud Prefecture City to investigate the situation.]
[Xing Chen had a conflict with the local forces in the county city. The He family’s Martial Saint appeared and was severely injured by Xing Chen.]
[A month later, Xing Chen is prepared to head to the Furious Flood Dragon Gang to investigate the situation. The guardian of the Cloud Prefecture, Qi Yuntian, appeared and killed him.]
[The Nine Nether Mansion has an intense conflict with the Spirit Guardians in the Cloud Prefecture. Battles between demons and Spirit Guardians erupted everywhere.]

[You secretly killed Xue Han and Gao Baijie and snatched the other two fragments from their hands.]
years old. On the way to the Central Prefecture to participate in the trial, you were ambushed by the Second Guardian of the Nine Nether Mansion, Yue ]
[In the face of a fourth-level Snake-level expert, you used all your methods but still died on the spot.]
“Sending such an expert to deal with me? Can’t you follow the rules?!”
The corners of Han Zhao’s mouth twitched.
A fourth-level Snake-level was equivalent to a Martial Saint at the Four Fiend Realm.
Sending such an expert to deal with a weak martial artist at the Grandmaster Realm like him was really shameless!
[The simulation is over. You can choose one of the following.]
[1: Obtain Trait (Selectable)]
[2: Obtained attribute points]
[3: Obtain any part of the life experience.]
[Current Balance: 3,000 taels of gold]
The moment he saw the Trait option, the little gloominess in Han Zhao’s heart instantly disappeared.
“One.”
[Received Red Upgrade Trait]
[Red Upgrade Trait]: A one-time high-level Trait. It can upgrade a Trait whose upper limit is lower than Red to the upper limit Red Trait. If the current quality is lower than purple, it can directly increase by one level..
