Chapter 14: Misidentified as a descendant of a ruined sect
As soon as he made his choice, a jade talisman appeared in Jiang Yifeng's hand.
He examined it carefully but couldn't discern its secrets, so he decided to keep it close to him.
After all, this was something that concerned his own safety.
At the same time, Jiang Yifeng felt some changes happening in his body.
He sensed that there seemed to be strands of energy flowing within him.
Gradually, he became aware of the existence of his Qi Sea, where a large amount of spiritual energy was constantly swaying.
At this moment, Jiang Yifeng understood that the simulator was extracting Immortal Dao cultivation for him.
"Bang!"
Jiang Yifeng suddenly felt as if a switch had been flipped in his body, and his physical strength was continuously increasing.
In an instant, his Martial Dao cultivation broke through to the seventh level of body tempering."This..."
Jiang Yifeng was taken aback.
This was completely unexpected.
He hadn't anticipated this pleasant surprise; the improvement in his Immortal Dao cultivation had actually elevated his Martial Dao cultivation by a stage in reality.
However, upon careful thought, Jiang Yifeng found it quite reasonable.
The simulation had mentioned that spiritual energy washing over the body could enhance its strength.
In reality, he was already at the peak of the sixth level of body tempering. Now, after being washed by the spiritual energy of the third level of Qi Refining, it was only natural for his physical strength to increase to the seventh level of body tempering.
When everything was over, Jiang Yifeng recalled the situation in the simulation.
He felt that the most crucial issue now was his poor cultivation talent.
To improve, he still needed to upgrade the simulator to extract higher-level talents.
So he found the steward, Jiang Dafu, and asked him to speed up the acquisition of gold, silver, and jewels.
After doing all this, Jiang Yifeng leisurely headed to the Spring Blossom Pavilion to listen to music.
Days spent listening to music in the pleasure house always passed quickly.
In the blink of an eye, seven days had gone by.
During this period, steward Jiang Dafu had already transported a large amount of gold, silver, and jewels to Jiang Yifeng's small courtyard.
Without hesitation, Jiang Yifeng exchanged them for energy values, and box after box of jewels disappeared.
To avoid suspicion from the disappearance of these treasures, Jiang Yifeng had long instructed his subordinates to make a grand show of digging a huge underground chamber in his courtyard.
The purpose was to inform everyone that he now had a hobby of collecting, and all these gold, silver, and jewels were hidden underground.
Soon, all the gold, silver, and jewels were exchanged, and an electronic voice sounded.
[Ding, exchanged 130 boxes of various gold, silver, and jewels, gaining 2.6 billion energy values.]
Jiang Yifeng looked at the nearly 2.7 billion energy values on the simulator and waited quietly.
Unfortunately, the "ding" he was waiting for never came.
"Could it be that it takes 10 billion to upgrade the simulator?"
Jiang Yifeng muttered to himself.
The previous upgrade required 1 billion energy values, and he originally thought that 10 billion would be enough for the next upgrade.
Unexpectedly, even with nearly 2.7 billion energy values, there was no upgrade.
This made Jiang Yifeng frown.
If it really required 10 billion, how much would the next upgrade need?
It was really quite troublesome.
If this continued, wouldn't it bankrupt the Jiang Clan Firm?
Jiang Yifeng felt a bit guilty.
Soon, he dismissed these thoughts.
It's just a firm, no big deal. Once he became invincible, he could have whatever he wanted.
Since the simulator couldn't be upgraded, Jiang Yifeng decided not to simulate for the time being. After all, simulation attempts could be stored up to three times.
He might as well save them; perhaps by the time he had three attempts, he would have enough energy to upgrade the simulator.
Day by day, Jiang Yifeng noticed that ever since he accelerated the acquisition of gold, silver, and jewels to gain energy, his father, Jiang Fushan, seemed to be getting busier.
Jiang Yifeng understood that his actions might have somewhat affected the firm.
However, his father didn't say anything but worked even harder to earn money and make up for the losses he had caused.
Seeing his father like this, Jiang Yifeng silently cheered for his old man: "Keep it up!"
Then he walked into the Spring Blossom Pavilion to listen to music.
Jiang Yifeng felt quite helpless. His persona was like this; if he suddenly changed and became diligent, wouldn't it be dangerous if someone with ill intentions found out?
After all, he didn't know if the cultivator targeting the Jiang family was constantly watching them.
For the safety of himself and the Jiang family, he had to listen to music every day.
Really, Jiang Yifeng felt quite innocent.
In the blink of an eye, another two weeks passed.
During this period, Jiang Yifeng exchanged a large amount of energy values, and now the total energy value was close to 8 billion, still a bit short of 10 billion.
The simulator still hadn't upgraded.
Unfortunately, the simulation attempts had accumulated to three times.
Jiang Yifeng knew he couldn't wait for the simulator to upgrade.
So he returned to his room and silently said, "Start simulation!"
[Consumed 1 simulation attempt, 2 attempts remaining]
[Extracting Green Talent costs 1,000 energy values, extracting Blue Talent costs 100,000 energy values, please choose extraction!]
"Extract Blue Talent."
[Ding, deducted 100,000 energy values, extracting Blue Talent, remaining energy values: 7.9 billion...]
[Congratulations, you have obtained Blue Talent: Human Bomb]
[Human Bomb]: Upon your death, a violent explosion will occur, ensuring that the person who wants your life won't escape unscathed.
"Hah!"
Jiang Yifeng laughed in exasperation at this talent.
Could this violent explosion kill a powerful cultivator?
Jiang Yifeng thought it was impossible. After all, the talent only said they wouldn't escape unscathed, which probably just meant they would be in a sorry state.
In the end, its only function was to ensure that even in death, he wouldn't leave a complete corpse.
It was simply beyond ridicule.
Fortunately, Jiang Yifeng had already planned this simulation and didn't have high hopes for the talent.
So he looked at the simulation text.
[Simulation 6 begins.]
[You survey your surroundings and realize you have entered the simulation.]
[You quietly leave Green Hills City alone.]
[Five days later, you arrive at the ruins in the Evergreen Mountain Range.]
[Upon arrival, you bury all the bones and erect tombs, and obtain the Immortal Dao mental cultivation method "Heavenly Profound Art."]
[This time, you have a little scheme. To please the white-clothed woman who will appear later, you even erect a delicate tombstone for each grave.]
[After finishing everything, you build a wooden hut next to the cemetery.]
[Then you begin a daily life of cultivation and hunting.]
[The first year passes uneventfully.]
[The second year also passes without incident.]
[In the third year, the white-clothed woman appears in the ruins. To be precise, it can no longer be called ruins!]
[You, full of schemes, have long cleaned it up bright and tidy.]
[The white-clothed woman looks around in confusion, wondering if she has come to the wrong place.]
[Finally, she looks at the well-maintained cemetery and the small wooden hut beside it where you reside.]
[This time, the white-clothed woman doesn't start by dazing in the ruins but instantly appears before you.]
[Before you can react, she grabs your wrist.]
[You feel a strong spiritual energy rushing into your meridians, directly reaching your Qi Sea.]
[The white-clothed woman is probing the Immortal Dao mental cultivation method you practice.]
[After a while, the spiritual energy is withdrawn by the white-clothed woman, who looks at you kindly and says: "So, there are still descendants of my senior brother's sect."]
[You instantly understand that she has mistaken you for a descendant of the sect that once occupied these ruins.]
