Chapter 20: Chapter 20: Uprising! Special Reward!
Translator: 549690339
[Daya Calendar 489, December 1st, you tried to break through the Post-Heaven Realm but failed. You knew that if you followed the normal method, it would take a long time to possibly break through to the Post-Heaven Realm. And if you dragged on for more days, there might be no chance for you to break through to the Innate Realm.]
[Finally, you decided to take the remaining Spiritual Stones and head to the nearest Black Rock City to see if there were any Elixirs to help break through to the Post-Heaven Realm.]
[Daya Calendar 489, December 2nd, you were ambushed by Post-Heaven
Realm bandits on your way to Black Rock City, but your White Talent: Escape Master came into play, increasing the speed of your horse and allowing you to escape successfully. You were very grateful for this.]
[Daya Calendar 489, December 3rd, you successfully arrived at Black Rock City, found the largest pharmacy in the city, and inquired about Elixirs. Eventually, you learned of an Elixir called Post-Heaven Elixir that could improve your chances of breaking through to the Post-Heaven Realm, which made you very happy.]
[You asked the price and found that it required three Lower-tier Spiritual Stones, which was very distressing. But you could only take out the remaining three Lower-tier Spiritual Stones to pay the bill. At this moment, you regretted not asking for more Spiritual Stones when you parted ways with the people of Chi Village.]
[After purchasing the Post-Heaven Elixir, you closed yourself in an inn and cultivated. Eventually, you successfully broke through to the Post-Heaven Realm, becoming a Post-Heaven Realm Martial Artist. Then, you chose to return to Bai Wood Village and continue to live a low-profile life without seeking adventures in the Jianghu.]
[Daya Calendar 490, during the New Year’s Eve, you watched the people of Bai Wood Village celebrate and felt very lonely. You considered whether to establish a family and develop a clan, at least to leave a legacy.]
[In the end, you chose to start a family and grow your family line. During the year Daya Calendar 490, you sought to expand your family. At the same time, you began to show off your cultivation and suppress other families in Bai Wood Village, making them respect you.]
[Daya Calendar 491, floods and droughts occurred in various parts of the Xia Country, causing suffering among the people. Coupled with the foolish actions of the Xia Emperor and the corruption of court officials, the Xia Country began to show signs of chaos. You were worried because your cultivation level at the time was only in the Post-Heaven Realm 2nd Tier, which might not be able to protect your wives and children in a chaotic era.]
[Daya Calendar 493, July 8th, your cultivation reached the Post-Heaven Realm
4th Tier, and your family gradually grew stronger. At the same time, Xia Country was completely in chaos, with bandits running rampant and various heroes rising in rebellion, even affecting Bai Wood Village. Some people invited you to join the Rebellion Army but you chose to refuse.]
[Seeing your refusal, the Rebellion Army demanded that you hand over money and food to support their cause. Enraged, you knew that they were obviously trying to rob you of your hard-earned family fortune. However, knowing that you were not strong enough to resist, you went along with their demands. The rebel soldiers sneered at you for daring to glare at them and declared that you were loyal to the tyrant. They arrogantly killed you.] [Due to your death, this simulation is over…]
“These rebels are really no different from bandits.”
Wang Ping watched the conclusion of the simulation with a frown, feeling very displeased.
Killing people and seizing their possessions without any provocation was something only bandits would do.
It should be said, they were even worse than bandits. At least bandits were blatant about their evil intentions to kill and rob people.
These rebel soldiers wanted to kill and rob while still putting an unjust label on others, which was completely hypocritical behavior.
“Seems like living a low-profile life is still the best option. Starting a family and expanding my clan would only bring disaster upon myself.”
Wang Ping shook his head, recalling the content of the simulation.
He really couldn’t stand loneliness in the simulation. Even though he had become a Post-Heaven Realm Martial Artist by living a low-profile life, he might still have a slim chance of becoming an Innate Master if he continued to do so.
However, once he gained some power, he wanted to start a family, which eventually attracted the attention of the rebels, and he was tragically killed.
Perhaps, this was the innate nature of people in Xia, having an inexplicable obsession with starting a family.
Of course, without exposing his strength and expanding his power to earn cultivation resources, it was estimated that his cultivation in the end wouldn’t reach the Post-Heaven Realm 4th Tier.
After all, if one didn’t have enough cultivation resources, their cultivation progress would certainly become more and more difficult and slow as time went on.
At this time, the system’s voice sounded again, bringing Wang Ping back to his senses.
“Ding, reward generation successful, host can choose two of the following rewards:
White Talent Escapist.
@. White Talent Swordsmanship Genius.
Life Experience.”
“Can I really choose two?”
Wang Ping was surprised. However, looking at the three rewards, he was still torn.
He wanted all three of these rewards.
The White Talent: Swordsmanship Genius could enhance his sword skills, preventing others from killing him across levels after his cultivation.”
The effect of the White Talent: Escape Master was already shown in the simulation. You could be weaker than others, but you absolutely couldn’t afford to be slower than them.”
As for the third reward, although it seemed unimpressive at first glance, upon a closer look, it was extremely valuable.”
After all, this meant that Wang Ping would gain over ten years of life experience for free.”
Granted, it didn’t seem like a big deal, but upon further thought, the value within was staggering.”
The richer one’s life experiences were, the more mature they became.”
At the same time, this could also include his experience in martial training, which would allow him to improve his cultivation faster during the next simulation.”
“System, I choose O and O.”
After struggling with his decision, Wang Ping finally set his heart on the third reward.”
“Ding, selection successful, distributing rewards…”
The system’s voice rang out.”
Then, Wang Ping suddenly felt numerous memories appear in his brain, immersing himself in them.”
This feeling was very strange, as if he had truly experienced those ten-plus years, his state of mind had a significant improvement and gained many different life insights through this process.”
Especially for exploring the cultivation experience, he was completely captivated.”
There was also a sense of temporal disorientation.”
It took a long time for Wang Ping to come back to reality.” This feeling was incredibly intriguing, leaving him speechless for a long time.”
“Choosing life experience was indeed the right decision.”
Wang Ping murmured softly.”
The current Wang Ping, although his appearance seemed unchanged, his temperament had altered. He gave off a steady vibe, no longer displaying the obvious restlessness as before.’
If he were to simulate again, as long as he continued to cultivate honestly,
Wang Ping thought he should be able to set foot in the Innate Realm.”
“System, how many Spiritual Stones do I need to start another simulation?”
Immediately, Wang Ping asked the system in his heart.” “Eight Lower-tier Spiritual Stones.” The system answered.”
“Indeed, it doubled.” Wang Ping sighed.”
With the doubling of the cost, the number of Spiritual Stones he would need for future simulations might become astronomical.”
Frankly, it was a bit frightening.”
“Wang Ping, it’s time for dinner.”
At this moment, Chifeng entered and spoke to Wang Ping.”
But as soon as he began speaking, he noticed something different about Wang
Ping….
