Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!

[The greatest loss to the Little Qingyun Realm this year was when two Heavenly Immortal Realm demon cultivators went to chase a powerful different race deity, only to be ambushed.]

[Under the onslaught of four powerful different-race deities, one of the Heavenly Immortal Realm demon cultivators died on the spot, while the other barely escaped with severe injuries, only to succumb to them later...]

[You silently noted this event, to avoid it in the future.]

[In the blink of an eye, another five years passed.]

[In the sixty-fifth year, the city you were in came under siege by a formidable army of different races. To save your life, you were forced to use your full power.]

[Enhanced by Unethical in Martial Conduct, you released fourteen hundred body-protecting Sword Qi Barriers, killing a different race deity comparable to the mid-stage Human Immortal Realm.]

[After this battle, your fame skyrocketed, and you were promoted to Ten Thousand Commander, yet you knew trouble might be coming.]

[Five more peaceful years passed.]

[In the seventieth year, one day you performed a divination and learned that a fatal disaster was imminent and unavoidable.]

[You knew that perhaps Qing Yunzi had found out your location.]

[You felt quite helpless and quietly waited for that day to come...]

[Half a month later, Qing Yunzi appeared before you.]

[This time he wore black, and his aura was strikingly different from before.]

[You were quite shocked and attempted to disguise and defend yourself, but Qing Yunzi seemed extremely disgusted and furious with you.]

[With one strike, you were annihilated...]

[You died!]

[Ding, this simulation ends!]

After the simulation ended, Su Xing frowned and puzzled:

"What's going on? Qing Yunzi seemed to have undergone some change..."

Compared to Qing Yunzi's performance in previous simulations, this time he seemed rather impatient, almost possessed!

"Is it because I told the Heavenly Secret Pavilion about Qing Yunzi slaying the three corpses?"

Su Xing quickly denied it; he had shared it before without such a change.

"Then... the only change I made was mentioning this to Immortal Ziling!"

Su Xing thought of the Jade Slip with recorded messages he had left for Immortal Ziling, feeling puzzled.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"The recording Jade Slip let Immortal Ziling know about Qing Yunzi's situation... Why did it cause such a huge impact?"

Su Xing wondered if Immortal Ziling had stopped Qing Yunzi from slaying the three corpses?

But how could a mere Golden Immortal stop a Great Luo?

Su Xing thought for a long time but still couldn't figure it out.

"It seems the key issue lies with Immortal Ziling... In future simulations, I should interact more with Immortal Ziling!"

Su Xing murmured to himself.

Although he still couldn't escape this disaster with Qing Yunzi, Su Xing's mood wasn't too troubled.

Because the main goal of this simulation was achieved, he successfully passed the trial of refining the heart!

"Let's see the rewards for this simulation!"

Su Xing felt some anticipation.

[Seven Apertures Exquisite Heart]: Gold talent, priced at 10 million energy points.

[Illusionary Heart Mysterious Pill (100 pills)]: Ninth-rank elixir, capable of enhancing mental fortitude and steadfastness, highly beneficial for certain spiritual races to breakthrough, priced at 5 billion energy points.

Seeing the new round of simulation rewards, Su Xing did not hesitate and muttered:

"I choose the gold talent Seven Apertures Exquisite Heart... and a wisp of Immortal Essence!"

[Ding, detecting that your talent slots are full, would you like to replace a talent?]

Su Xing heard the simulator's prompt in his ear, hesitated for a moment, and looked at his attribute panel.

Compared to before, Su Xing had a substantial improvement in terms of talent, skills, and origin comprehension.

However, all of Su Xing's current talents almost had their own uses, making it hard for Su Xing to decide what to replace.

"Unknowingly, I have accumulated five gold talents... The effects of gold talents are powerful, and obviously can't be replaced!"

"And comprehension talent, success guru... Descendant of Shennong, these important talents, obviously can't be replaced either..."

After some hesitation, Su Xing looked at a talent he had obtained long ago.
