Cultivation Simulator: Starting From The Empress' Palace

Chapter 4: 4 Simulation without cultivation, how long can one live

What?!

Actually poisoned to death.

This monster is poisonous?

Fifty minutes later.

Cooldown time is up.

”Damn it, I refuse to believe I can’t map out a safe route.”

”Let’s go again.”

Chen Mo began the simulation once more.

Locked in the Fighting Saint Body, along with three selected talents.

Still chose to leave the palace.

After all, with a fake eunuch identity, once discovered, it’s a dead end for sure, so Chen Mo felt the outside should be safer than inside.

[Day 1: A great upheaval arrives, the Great Song Dynasty faces uprisings everywhere. Heaven is dead, the Yellow Sky will rise. You feel the Imperial Palace isn’t safe, use an excuse to take leave and leave the palace.]

[Day 2: Because the eunuch’s attire is too conspicuous, trusting in the way of survival, you put on a beggar’s clothes and left Imperial City Bianliang.]

[Day 3: You blend into a refugee group heading south, and on the way, while comprehending the Feather Nirvana Heart Scripture, you become a Ninth Grade Martial Artist.]

[Day 4: With a kind heart, you saved a young woman, and in gratitude, she decides to take you to find her uncle.]

[Day 5: You encounter the Rebel Army, and your refugee group is forcibly incorporated into the Rebel Army.]

[Day 6: A Rebel Army lieutenant insults the woman you saved, you witness it, and out of fury, you kill the lieutenant, and then get surrounded by the Rebel Army and eventually overwhelmed. You die.]

[This Immortal Cultivation simulation ends, you can permanently retain one Immortal Cultivation Talent in the real world.]

[Immortal Cultivation Simulation ends, this simulation lasted six days. Cooldown time, 60 minutes.]

Oh crap?

These rebels aren’t any good either!

Forcing people to rebel is one thing, but openly insulting women...

This unruly army can overthrow the Imperial Court?

Of course, this could be an exception.

But Chen Mo already feels no goodwill towards this Rebel Army.

Next, Chen Mo refreshed the simulation a few more times.

Changed various ways to die, mostly not exceeding ten days.

Killed by the Rebel Army.

Or killed by the government as a rebel.

The only time it lasted more than ten days was when he didn’t leave the palace.

Then, due to discovering my identity as a fake eunuch, he was executed by dismemberment.

After all this, Chen Mo was mentally exhausted.

However, combining multiple simulations and summarizing memories, Chen Mo gained a rough understanding of the Great Song Dynasty.

Over a thousand years ago, the territory of the Great Song Dynasty was dominated by many small nations and sects, with sects so powerful at times, they interfered in national affairs, leaving people in destitution.

Until four hundred years ago, a genius emerged, ending it all.

This genius was the Grand Ancestor Emperor of the previous dynasty.

This Grand Ancestor Emperor somewhat resembled Emperor Qin Shi Huang in Chen Mo’s understanding, unifying the Thirteen Kingdoms, abolishing all sects and religions, nationalizing all cultivation methods and martial arts, categorizing them into four levels: Earth, Heaven, Mystery, and Yellow.

Unified the script.

Unified the realm system, categorizing the previously scattered and inconsistent cultivation realms into grades one through nine, with one being the highest and nine the lowest.

And to maintain control, Earth Tier and above cultivation methods and martial arts could only be practiced by the Imperial Family and the Emperor’s appointed officials and their children.

Outside of these, anyone secretly practicing Earth Tier or above cultivation methods and martial arts would be considered as rebelling.

Just had a short life.

The previous dynasty existed due to him and dissolved because of him.

After the Grand Ancestor Emperor of the previous dynasty died, due to the lack of local military power, the emptiness in internal forces, coupled with the initial establishment of the Empire using oppressive rule, making it unbearable for the people, the Empire he founded quickly fragmented.

Then, the surviving royals and nobles of various countries rose up and completely overthrew the Empire.

Finally, the Zhao Kingdom, which had the greatest power, seized the victory fruits, establishing the Great Song Dynasty, with the national title ”Great Song”.

The system mostly inherited the previous dynasty.

Primarily, it relaxed the control over cultivation methods and martial arts.

Set up the Eastern and Western Factories...

Mm!

This script feels a bit familiar.

...

The sky had long darkened, after consecutive disturbances, Chen Mo was somewhat tired, so after jotting down all the useful information from the simulation, he drifted into a dream.

In the dream, Chen Mo relied on the Cultivation Simulator to become a First Grade expert, then slaughtered left and right, astounding everyone, wooing the Imperial Consort, wooing the Princess...

Finally, he spent the night on the Phoenix Couch, intimately with the Empress...

When suddenly the dead Emperor crawled out of the ground and strangled this pair of adulterers to death.

A sweet dream turned nightmare, Chen Mo was directly jolted awake with a cold sweat on his forehead.

It was then he noticed that dawn was breaking.

”Slap!”

He must have read too many novels, thinking about sleeping with the Empress when he couldn’t even guarantee his own life, Chen Mo slapped himself.

Shameful!

...

Taking advantage of the early morning.

Chen Mo planned to run the simulation once again.

Cooldown time had already refreshed, and now counts as the second day, according to the Cultivation Simulator’s description, allowing him to acquire his second talent.

Chen Mo did not immediately start the simulation but analyzed instead, intending to change his approach.

He believes the reason he was harvested by the Empress must be because he reached a rank as a cultivator and also due to the Celestial Cold Body, containing a cold energy useful to the Empress.

As for the Ice Spirit Cold Jade he accidentally obtained, Chen Mo thinks it might be arranged by the Empress.

Of course, it could also be due to the Fighting Saint Body.

Therefore, this time in the simulation, he takes the Fighting Saint Body without cultivating, to see if it gets detected?

Would he still be harvested by the Empress?

How soon will his fake eunuch identity be discovered?

Meanwhile, understand the palace better and probe for more cultivation methods and martial arts information.

So.

The system provided ten talents this time, and Chen Mo chose three inconspicuous blue talents, paired with the Fighting Saint Body from the first day, to start the first simulation of the second day.

[Day 1: A great upheaval descends, the Great Song Dynasty faces uprisings everywhere, Heaven is dead, Yellow Heaven will rise. You are situated in the Imperial Palace, the safest place in Great Song Dynasty. As a fake eunuch, you just want to live quietly.]

[Day 2: You honestly pretend to be a eunuch, listen less, do more, and familiarize yourself with Weiyang Palace’s environment.]

[Day 3: Empress invites concubines for a gathering, you receive praise from a Noble Consort due to your outstanding look, frightens you, causing you to bow even lower.]

[Day 4: You intentionally made your appearance a bit uglier, but no one noticed.]

[Day 5: News of rebellion reaches Bianliang, the Capital is shocked, the Emperor is furious, executing several people successively, immediately dispatching troops to suppress.]
