[Inside the instance, the elder praised you as people of deep fortune, handed out a task to you, and gave you a few extra glances.]

[For a week, you continuously used Spiritual Energy to ripen the Spirit Grains and helped Jin Congxue in your spare time.]

[Jin Congxue gradually fell for you.]

[A week later, the elder distributed the task rewards to you.]

[The elder complimented your good looks and gave you an extra ten Spirit Stones, you obtained 50 Spirit Stones, as well as 40 jin of Spirit Rice.]

[You asked the elder to exchange the Spirit Rice for Spirit Stones, and the elder agreed, you got 90 Spirit Stones.]

Su Xing saw this and several black lines appeared on his forehead as he complained,

“Sure enough, it’s a world where looks matter. Not to mention strong individuals like Jin Congxue judging by appearance… even those in the cultivation world value looks!”

Su Xing continued with the simulation.

[Moved by a thought, you wanted to ask the elder to take you as a disciple, but the elder slightly shook his head, saying your talents were too poor and rejected your request.]

[Helpless, you left the instance, and Jin Congxue was waiting for you outside the city. She confessed her feelings to you, telling you that she had never been in a relationship and had fallen for you at first sight.]

[After some thought, you agreed to Jin Congxue’s confession and the two of you lived in Jinling City for a while.]

[You returned to Kyoto, and Jin Congxue told you she would come to find you and gave you all her 15 Spirit Stones.]

[Back in Kyoto, you diligently practiced cultivation, occasionally going into instances to lead newcomers to level up.]

[One day, Wang Qingxuan found you and informed you about a mysterious organization.]

[After one night, Wang Qingxuan dropped out of school.]

[In the second year, you practiced cultivation diligently, your cultivation level grew constantly, and you broke through to the eighth level of Qi Refinement Realm.]

[In the third year, you simultaneously practiced cultivation and led female newcomers in instances to level up, your services were in high demand, and you increased your order prices.]

[In the fourth year, you set up an equipment shop to sell secondhand gear, and your store was bustling, mostly with female customers.]

[In the fifth year, your business grew bigger and even some female bosses from the same industry wanted to “support” you.]

[In the same year, your cultivation level rose to the Great Perfection of the Qi Refinement Realm.]

[One day, Wang Qingxuan found you, and you repeated your old trick, asking her to help you find the second half of the Changchun Technique.]

[In the seventh year, your sister died, and you attended her funeral.]

[In the tenth year, your good brother Yu Yan died, and you attended his funeral.]

[In the eleventh year, you successfully broke through to the Foundation Establishment Realm.]

[In the fifteenth year, a behemoth descended.]

[You raised your middle finger at it.]

[The behemoth devoured the entire Great Xia Country, you died at the age of thirty-six.]

[Your talent “Unable to Rest in Peace After Death” activated…]

[Ding, this simulation has ended!]

[You may choose one of the following rewards: Face like a Crown Prince (Talent), Foundation Establishment Second Layer (Cultivation Level), 105 Spirit Stones (Item)]

[Face like a Crown Prince]: A green talent, priced at 10,000 energy points.

[Foundation Establishment Second Layer]: Cultivation level, priced at 1,500 energy points.

[105 Spirit Stones]: An item, priced at 10.5k energy points.

Seeing the outcome of this future simulation, Su Xing felt a wave of embarrassment.

“Damn it, is this world really all about looks? Handsome people have it all their way, huh!”

Suppressing the desire to choose the “Face like a Crown Prince” talent, Su Xing selected the third reward of 105 Spirit Stones.

A bag of Spirit Stones appeared in Su Xing’s hand.

Now, Su Xing’s count of Spirit Stones had reached 195!

“`

However, Su Xing’s energy points had also dwindled to a mere fifteen thousand.

“Sigh, this energy really isn’t enough to spend!”

Su Xing shook his head slightly, obviously he could no longer exchange for Spirit Stones, resource that required heavy spending.

“After all, it’s still a lack of energy!”

Su Xing lamented.

Thus, in the following week, Su Xing, motivated by his poverty, transformed into a grinding emperor!

During the day, Su Xing diligently took on leveling orders to earn more money for preparations and to exchange for energy.

By night, Su Xing began his practice in the dormitory.

In this way, with less than four hours of sleep each day, Su Xing made a breakthrough to the third layer of the Qi Refinement realm in a week and earned more than seven hundred thousand Great Xia Coins.

Su Xing used all the transferred money to purchase equipment, and finally, he barely managed to gather 20,000 points of energy.

On November 11, 2023, in the new era, Su Xing performed his technique in the dormitory.

“Blessed be the Mysterious Yellow Celestial, please let me acquire a green-quality Spiritual Root!”

Su Xing prayed continuously in his heart, after all, before the instance opened, he only had two more simulation opportunities left.

When the minute and second hands of the clock both pointed to eight, Su Xing, with sincere heart, silently incanted:

“Begin simulation!”

[This simulation will consume 1000 points of energy, remaining energy 19040 points, no more simulation opportunities.]

[Simulation Starting!]

[Drawing a white talent costs 100 points of energy, a green talent costs 1000 points of energy, do you wish to draw?]

“Draw the green talent,”

Su Xing said without any hesitation.

It seemed that the Mysterious Yellow Celestial had shown its miracle, as Su Xing’s metaphysics finally took effect.

A pleasant voice rang in Su Xing’s ears.

[Ding, congratulations on obtaining the green talent, Wood-Fire Dual-type Spiritual Root!]

[Wood-Fire Dual-type Spiritual Root]: Green talent, your cultivation aptitude far exceeds that of an ordinary person, no longer the lowliest Five Elements Mixed Spiritual Root, you possess the Wood-Fire Dual-type Spiritual Root, capable of practicing Wood and Fire type cultivation techniques.

Seeing the new talent he had drawn, Su Xing clenched his fists with excitement, making a popping sound.

“It’s here, it’s finally here! A green-quality Spiritual Root talent!”

Su Xing took a deep breath, and, restraining the excitement in his heart, chose to continue the simulation.

[In the dormitory, you notice something unusual about your body, the Dual-type Spiritual Root makes your senses keener.]

[You take out a Spirit Stone and begin your practice; in just one day, your cultivation level breaks through to the fourth layer of the Qi Refinement realm, your training speed is now a full ten times faster than before!]

Su Xing, seeing this, sighed emotionally:

“Indeed, cultivation really depends on talent! The lowest-level Five Elements Mixed Spiritual Root would take ten years just to barely break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm… If it’s a Dual-type Spiritual Root, perhaps a year would be enough!”

But what Su Xing did not know was, above the Five Elements Mixed Spiritual Root were the Four Elements Mixed Spiritual Root, the Tri-type Spiritual Root…

And the Wood-Fire Dual-type Spiritual Root that Su Xing had drawn, in the Cultivation World, could also be considered the level of a minor genius cultivator, which is why he had such astonishing cultivation speed.

Su Xing continued to read on.

[You spend a week to raise your cultivation to the fifth layer of the Qi Refinement period, and the Spiritual Energy inside your body is more abundant.]

[On the day of November 18, you head towards Jinling City and wait quietly outside the city for Jin Congxue’s arrival.]

[The next day, you encounter Jin Congxue outside Jinling City and ask her to teach you Buddhism, earning the qualification to accompany her.]

[She takes you on a shortcut back to Jinling City, and on the way, you discover the entrance to the “Azure Cloud Spirit Field” instance.]

[You enter the Azure Cloud Spirit Field instance!]
