Cultivation Simulator: Starting From The Empress' Palace

[On the tenth day, you fell into the trap set by the Evil Cultivators, and you were forced to separate from the main forces. On the way, you were hunted down by a Nascent Soul Realm Evil Cultivator. At this critical moment of life and death, Zhao Fujin suddenly appeared and rescued you. It turns out that among the three direct disciples sent by the Sect, one was Zhao Fujin, who had returned from the Daoist Alliance.]

[Simulation ends. Please choose one from the following three options as a reward.]

[One, True Explanation of the Minor Profound Technique, Golden Core Chapter, Minor Accomplishment.]

[Two, A more thorough Blood Burning Skill.]

[Three, Ten days of Cultivation experience.]

As the simulation ended, Chen Mo chose option one without hesitation.

Immediately afterward, a mysterious power that no one could perceive flowed into Chen Mo’s body.

Chen Mo unconsciously clenched his fist. According to the Golden Core Chapter’s description, as long as it reached Minor Accomplishment, just his physical strength alone could contend directly with a Golden Core Realm expert.

This alleviated some of Chen Mo’s worries.

Through the simulation, he also confirmed that what Nangong Yue and Nangong Xue said was true.

Moreover, was Yiren sister being led away by the Divinity Transformation Realm Evil Cultivator, and the Nascent Soul Realm Evil Cultivator pursuing him, a coincidence?

Or was it Long Xiaoyao’s arrangement...

If it was Long Xiaoyao’s arrangement, then Long Xiaoyao was conspiring with the Evil Cultivators.

Chen Mo thought carefully for a while and then went to Zuoqiu Yiren, asking her to accompany and protect him while he completed his Sect mission.

Just like in the simulation, Zuoqiu Yiren agreed but mentioned she wouldn’t interfere with his Sect mission.

In other words, if he encounters an Evil Cultivator he can’t defeat and his life is threatened, Zuoqiu Yiren will help him kill that Evil Cultivator. However, Chen Mo cannot take the head of the Evil Cultivator back to the Sect as his completed mission; instead, he must kill a Foundation Establishment Realm or higher Evil Cultivator himself.

Chen Mo nodded.

Then something occurred that wasn’t in the simulation—Zuoqiu Yiren asked him to brew three jars of Immortal Drunk as compensation for protection.

Chen Mo nodded in agreement.

Since the brewing materials were provided by Zuoqiu Yiren, he just needed to put in some effort.

Besides, he already achieved Minor Accomplishment in the Golden Core Chapter of the True Explanation of the Minor Profound Technique, so there was no need to rush.

After spending two days brewing three jars of Immortal Drunk, Chen Mo didn’t give the Immortal Drunk to Zuoqiu Yiren but instead went into seclusion.

Although he already achieved Minor Accomplishment in the Golden Core Chapter, he still had the herbs for cultivating the Golden Core Chapter in hand. With time, he could further refine his cultivation in the Golden Core Chapter.

As for why he doesn’t give Zuoqiu Yiren the Immortal Drunk now.

It’s because he’s afraid she’ll drink it all in one day and then ask him to brew more.

After a few days of seclusion, he made significant progress on the True Explanation of the Minor Profound Technique, and during these days of seclusion, he also completed a simulation, choosing rewards related to the True Explanation of the Minor Profound Technique.

If it weren’t for the insufficient herbs in hand, perhaps within these few days, he could completely cultivate the Golden Core Chapter to perfection.

Before coming out of seclusion, Chen Mo conducted another simulation.

[Start Immortal Cultivation Simulator?]

”Yes.”

[On the first day, Divine Light Hall issued a mission to eradicate the Evil Cultivators. The Outer Sect must dispatch five hundred people to participate, and all new Outer Sect disciples who have not completed Sect missions must participate. The Inner Sect must dispatch two hundred people, and three True Disciples are required.]

Long Xiaoyao accepted the mission.]

[On the second day, you all rode Immortal Cranes to arrive at East Night Kingdom.]

[On the third day, an Evil Cultivator in Divinity Transformation Realm attempted to lure away Zuoqiu Yiren. Due to your reminder, Zuoqiu Yiren did not fall for it and immediately locked onto the aura of this Divinity Transformation Realm cultivator, using the Merak Flying Sword, intending to slay him. Yet, someone behind the Divinity Transformation Realm cultivator blocked the attack, leaving Zuoqiu Yiren somewhat surprised.]

[On the third day, the Evil Cultivator in the Divinity Transformation Realm returned, using vile language to provoke Zuoqiu Yiren. Zuoqiu Yiren used the Merak Flying Sword again, and despite the obstruction from those behind the Divinity Transformation Realm cultivator, Zuoqiu Yiren still managed to slay him with the Merak Flying Sword.

Originally, Zuoqiu Yiren hadn’t considered the Divinity Transformation Realm cultivator a threat, so she only used ten percent of her power.]

The people behind him were enraged and attacked Zuoqiu Yiren fiercely. Meanwhile, masses of Evil Cultivators launched an attack on you, scattering your team. Seizing the opportunity, Inner Sect disciple Suzhou Ze and Liu Jingchun aimed at you, but you were prepared and counter-killed the two of them, and also slayed a Late Stage Foundation Establishment Evil Cultivator, completing the mission.

At the same time, Zuoqiu Yiren seriously injured that person, who then used a secret technique to escape.]

[On the fourth day, Zhao Fujin appeared in front of you. You learned that Zhao Fujin was one of the three direct disciples dispatched by the Sect. You embraced for a moment and then collectively searched for the sect disciples scattered yesterday.]

[On the fifth day, you found most of the scattered disciples and once again rescued the Nangong sisters. At that moment, both Zuoqiu Yiren and Zhao Fujin received a notification from the Sect, instructing them to immediately head to the Spirit Stone Mine in East Night Kingdom. The Evil Cultivators had a major conspiracy there, and they needed to stop it.

Zuoqiu Yiren asked you to go with her, stating it would be an excellent training opportunity. Other disciples who completed the mission were instructed by Zuoqiu Yiren to travel back by Immortal Crane the way they came, including Zhao Qianyi, Jiang Ruoqing, Xiao Jiu, and the Nangong sisters.]

[On the sixth day, the Evil Cultivator that Zuoqiu Yiren had injured heavily, brought a Demon Race strongman in the Void Realm to block you.

Zuoqiu Yiren fought with all her might and within less than ten rounds, slayed both. Before killing them, she learned a big secret from the Evil Cultivator’s mouth.

It turns out, deep beneath the Spirit Stone Mine in East Night Kingdom, there lies an even deeper Spirit Stone Mine, where the Spirit Stones mined are at least of Middle Grade quality. The Evil Cultivators immediately informed the Demon Sect, which promptly dispatched strongmen intending to set up a large Teleportation Array to transport the entire Spirit Stone Mine away. To prevent the leaks, they planned to slaughter everyone from East Night Kingdom at the Spirit Stone Mine, but still left one survivor. Thus leading to the subsequent events.

That night, you reached the Spirit Stone Mine. Long Xiaoyao and another direct disciple, Fang Zun, also arrived. Seeing you were still alive, Long Xiaoyao was quite surprised. Both learned of your relationship with Zhao Fujin. After slaying the Evil Cultivators at the Spirit Stone Mine, you reported your discoveries to the Sect.]

[On the seventh day, at the Sect’s request, you explored the deeper veins of the Spirit Stone Mine, and by fortunate chance, you discovered Spirit Marrow Liquid. Zuoqiu Yiren knew that using Spirit Marrow Liquid for brewing would enhance the flavor of Immortal Drunk, so she pocketed all the Spirit Marrow Liquid and instructed you not to inform the Sect.]

[On the eighth day, you returned to the Sect. Someone leaked the information, and the Sect learned about Zuoqiu Yiren’s private stash of Spirit Marrow Liquid, demanding her to hand it over. Instead of handing it over, Zuoqiu Yiren falsely claimed it was already brewed into liquor, leaving the Sect helpless and having to concede.]
