[Taoyun: 1647 points.]
[Do you want to use the Life Simulator? Cost: 1000 Taoyun points for each use.]
Pei Xuanjing did not hesitate and chose ‘yes’.
[Among the Fifty Great Tao, Forty-Nine Heavenly Paths remain. One has fled! Therefore, every living thing in the world has a thread of hope!]
18 years old: You have broken through to the Seventh Grade Realm and creatively blended the “Yi Wood Skill” and “Leaving Fire Skill” into the “Yi Wood and Li Fire Skill”. You prepare to leave to broaden your horizons, cultivate your mind and body, and practice Martial Arts.
19 years old: You have not been out of your hometown for long before you encounter a group of bandits looting a merchant caravan. As a Martial Artist, you should have the heart of a hero, so you don’t hesitate to help them, kill the bandits, and rescue the merchants.
The owner of the merchant caravan was so grateful for your heroic actions. Knowing your intention to go to Anping City in the Northwest Dao, he invited you to join him on the journey.
Half a month later, your party safely arrived in Anping City. You bid farewell to the merchant caravan and chose the Yue Lai Inn for your stay.
A few days later, you came across two young men and women arguing in the city. The young man seemed to be pestering the girl. You smiled and prepared to leave, but you were unexpectedly pulled by the girl to act as a shield.
Although you are new, you have a sense of justice. You reprimand the woman for using you and leave. You did not notice the resentment in her eyes.
The next day, the woman you helped came to trouble you with several companions. Because of the Great Ming imperial court’s restriction on Martial Artists from fighting at will, they forced you to duel on the Martial Arts Platform.
On the Martial Arts Platform, you took on seven young experts by yourself, earning the cheers and admiration from the crowd and leaving the woman and her companions embarrassed.
You never expected that the woman came from an influential family in the city. The next day, she rallied her connections and invited Liu Ruilong, a young Martial Artist who is ranked among the top ten in Anping Prefecture, to fight you. You demonstrated the strength of a Seventh Grade Martial Artist that matched Liu Ruilong, and the match ended in a draw.
Knowing your clean background and excellent performance, the Prefect of Anping Prefecture first settled the woman’s issue and then recruited you with a promise to help you break through the Sixth Grade. You gladly accepted.
20 years old: True to the saying, it’s best to cultivate under the Six Gates. With the help of the prefect, you broke through to the Sixth Grade. It was then that the prefect told you that he needed a favor from you.
A Blessed Land emerged containing a Forbidden Place within. The Prefect needed you to lead a team into it and seize the treasures. Out of gratitude for the prefect’s help in your breakthrough, you agreed.
Three months later, you led the prefect’s people into the Blessed Land, ready to seize the treasures.
However, you did not expect the Blessed Land to hold such an allure, provoking widespread competition, and posing dangers at every turn.
With the help of your companions, you endured hardships to seize the treasures. However, before you could escape, you were surrounded by other ambitious individuals.
Faced with numerous adversaries, you were outnumbered. You lost the treasures and were killed by them.
[End of this life.]
“What on earth is the treasure in this Blessed Land that has attracted such fierce competition?”
After the simulation ended, Pei Xuanjing pondered with a frown.
According to his experiences in this life simulation, not only the martial artists in the world, but even the Prefect of Anping Prefecture craved this treasure, even to the point of helping him break through to the Sixth Grade. What is so special about this treasure?
However, feeling like a small fish in a big pond, even though he had the life simulator at his disposal, and could advance his Martial Arts without lagging behind, his understanding of the world was too limited. Although he didn’t know the secrets, he didn’t even know about things happening outside of the Northwest Dao.
Indeed, a pool does not raise a dragon. He could not remain in this small city for much longer.
Pei Xuanjing began to harbor thoughts of leaving. On one hand, this place was remote and far from the world. News could not reach quickly; on the other hand, if he wanted to accumulate Taoyun points faster, he needed to go to broader places.
Pushing this desire to leave aside for now, he looked at the reward for this round.
[Simulation complete. You can choose to keep one of the following rewards.]
[One: Sixth-grade Martial Arts Realm.]
[Two: Combat experience of a Sixth-grade Martial Artist.]
[Three: Information about the Forbidden Place.]
This time, Pei Xuanjing chose the first option without a second thought.
Information about the Forbidden Place was not very important to him right now. What could he do even if he did know? It would be as elusive as the moon in the water, or a flower in a mirror.
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
The reward he chose in the last life simulation was a preparation for this moment. Now that he had completely transformed his Inner Qi into the “Yi Wood and Li Fire Skill” Inner Qi, it was the perfect opportunity to break through to the Sixth-grade Martial Artist.
After making his choice, he immediately felt his Inner Qi quickly circulating, purifying, and compressing in his body.
Anticipating the situation from his last breakthrough, Pei Xuanjing immediately drank the medicinal soup that had been prepared for this occasion.
With the medicinal soup in his body, the speed of his circulating Qi increased many times over and began to transform into True Qi.
After two hours, Pei Xuanjing managed to transform all his Inner Qi into True Qi only after drinking more than a dozen bowls of medicinal soup.
Although the amount of True Qi in his body was ten times less than his original Inner Qi, the quality of the True Qi had increased nearly tenfold.
He opened his eyes and circulated the True Qi within his body. With his right hand formed into a sword finger, a burst of sword Qi erupted and shattered the bowl he had used for the medicinal soup.
True Qi, as compared to Inner Qi, does not only represent a change in quality but also can leave the body to serve as a method of attack.
Meanwhile, the circulating True Qi in his body began to slowly nourish his internal organs.
