Lacking spiritual energy, Su Xing spent his first few years like this, leading him to even become a Body Refinement Cultivator.

But now, having tasted the wonderfulness of spiritual energy, losing access to it was absolutely unacceptable for Su Xing.

Yet, in future simulations, he found himself once again lacking spiritual energy. Although there was still some time before that reality would strike, Su Xing still felt a sense of urgency.

“Fortunately, there are Gathering Spirit Flowers. It seems that in the upcoming simulations, I’ll have to find a way to plant some to ensure a supply of spiritual energy…”

It was foreseeable that after breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage, Su Xing’s need for spiritual energy would increase even further. Although he could use elixirs to enhance his cultivation level, spiritual energy was fundamental.

Su Xing sighed lightly and turned his attention to the rewards of this simulation.

[Plant Affinity]: Blue talent, priced at 100,000 energy points.

[Nascent Soul Stage, First Layer]: Qi Refining Cultivation, Nascent Soul ancestors are terrifying, priced at 1 million energy points.

[Seventeen Years of Alchemy Experience]: Alchemy insights, priced at 170,000 energy points.

[Two Gathering Spirit Flowers (Growth Stage)]: Not fully matured Gathering Spirit Flowers, estimated to be 3 years from full growth, priced at 20,000 energy points.

[Minor Spirit Gathering Array (Superficial Understanding)]: A faint comprehension of the Minor Spirit Gathering Array, priced at 5,000 energy points. (The Minor Spirit Gathering Array is one of the thirteen minor decisions in the Shennong Spiritual Nurturing Technique)

There’s not much to say about the simulation rewards. Only three items stirred Su Xing’s interest to exchange.

The blue talent Plant Affinity, the Cultivation Level of the Nascent Soul Stage, and the two Gathering Spirit Flowers that are in the growth stage.

After pondering for a moment, Su Xing decided to exchange for the Plant Affinity talent and the Cultivation Level of the Nascent Soul Stage.

The Gathering Spirit Flowers were good, but they were too time-consuming to cultivate during their growth stage. Moreover, it would take three years for them to mature. Even with the Plant Affinity talent, it would still require a year’s time. It was better to later bring out fully matured Gathering Spirit Flowers.

As for the Plant Affinity talent, it was almost a must-have. Whether it was for later planting Gathering Spirit Flowers or other spirit plants, it would be needed.

As for the Cultivation Level of the Nascent Soul Stage, that went without saying. Cultivation level had always been important, and moreover, after advancing to the Nascent Soul Stage, Su Xing’s alchemy skills would further improve.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

“I choose the blue talent Plant Affinity and the Cultivation Level of the Nascent Soul Stage, First Layer!”

Su Xing thought silently in his heart.

Suddenly, a notification sounded in Su Xing’s ear.

[Ding, you have chosen to take the blue talent Plant Affinity, costing 100,000 energy points, remaining energy 2,996,666 points.]

[Ding, you have chosen to take the Nascent Soul Stage, First Layer Cultivation Level, costing 1 million energy points, remaining energy 1,996,666 points.]

As the simulator’s voice rang in his ear, Su Xing first felt a gentle green light spill over his body. Then, he seemed to sense the emotions of every plant around him, becoming more harmonious with them.

“Is this the feeling of Plant Affinity? Not bad at all, huh?”

Su Xing understood why the Plant Affinity talent could accelerate the growth of plants—everything in the world has spirit, and now Su Xing could sense the emotions of spirit plants, which would allow him to cultivate them better.

The Plant Affinity was simply an internal change within Su Xing.

The next second, Su Xing felt something inside him yearning to break out.

Cultivation feedback was coming!

Su Xing hurriedly sat down cross-legged, guarding his mind. He looked inward at his Dantian with his spiritual sense.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

He saw the Nine Revolution Golden Core within his Dantian trembling gently, a golden light enveloping the whole Dantian in an instant. The aura of the Nine Revolution Golden Core continued to gather and climb.

The whole process lasted about a minute.

Su Xing didn’t dare blink, constantly sensing the changes within the Golden Core inside him.

Ultimately, only a crisp sound was heard.

Crack!

The Nine Revolution Golden Core displayed a fissure, which expanded like a spiderweb and eventually shattered completely.

Within the core, an infant the size of a palm appeared; this infant was born with his eyes open, bright and alert, resembling Su Xing considerably. What was more astonishing was the golden light radiating from the baby’s entire body. (Note: This is a description of the Nascent Soul, with no suspicion of being a clone, rest assured it’s safe.)

After breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage, the growth of Su Xing’s cultivation level hadn’t ended. His aura surged again, nearly approaching the second level of the Nascent Soul Stage—a result of the simulated years of diligent cultivation just before.

“So this is what it’s like to be a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator…”

Su Xing took a deep breath, noting the uniqueness of his Nascent Soul. A normal Nascent Soul cultivator’s soul wouldn’t be golden; a golden Nascent Soul could only be formed by a Nine Revolution Golden Core.

This golden Nascent Soul also significantly elevated Su Xing’s strength beyond that of an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator.

At the same time, Su Xing felt an immense spiritual power within his body, which was several times stronger than during the Golden Core Stage!

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

If, before, the cultivation of his Golden Core was like a stream in the mountains, then now the stream had joined a river, much more abundant than before!

“Hiss, although I’ve just broken through to the Nascent Soul cultivator, with the power of the Nine Revolution Golden Core, perhaps my spiritual power is already comparable to a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator!”

Su Xing sighed inwardly.

“The only regret is that I still lack offensive techniques. Currently with only the Li Fire and Spirit Explosion Technique at my disposal, it’s about time to schedule learning new offensive spells…”

Su Xing’s breakthrough to the Nascent Soul was exceptionally smooth, the whole process natural, but the sudden increase in strength still made him feel a bit inflated.

Su Xing hurriedly scooped up two ladlefuls of clear water from the Spirit Well, drank half, and poured the other half over his crown, which calmed his emotions once more.

He then began his routine self-brainwashing.

“Stay steady, just a mere Nascent Soul cultivator for now… I must at least wait until reaching the Divinity Transformation Stage before I can seek vengeance on that damned Zong!”

After a few moments, Su Xing’s emotions stabilized again, returning to his usual composed demeanor.

This was a drawback Su Xing found with the simulator; each time his cultivation was simulated and enhanced, the sudden increase in power made him feel inflated.

Only by constantly reminding himself could he remain steady (and hold on).

Su Xing opened the cultivator’s panel to review his current information.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

[Name: Su Xing]

[Age: 21]

[Occupation: Cultivator (Unique Hidden Occupation)]

[Cultivation Level: Nascent Soul Stage Level 1, Organ Refining Realm Level 9]

[Cultivation Techniques: Changchun Technique, Condensing Core Secret Technique]

[Talents: Dual True Spiritual Roots of Wood and Fire, Unyielding, Innate Divine Strength, Fortune Upon Fortune, Quick Wit, Unbreakable, Beast Speech Level 10, Handsome as Pan An, Smooth Business Fortune, Plant Affinity…]

[Skills: Li Fire (Elementary), Alchemy (Elementary), Spirit Explosion Technique (Elementary), Shennong Spiritual Nurturing Technique (Uninitiated)]

After checking the attributes panel, Su Xing nodded in satisfaction.

Now that his Qi Refining Cultivation had become Nascent Soul Stage Level 1, his strength had surged, and his control over spiritual power was exceedingly strong.

Besides, after more than twenty simulations, the number of talents Su Xing currently had reached exactly ten, which made him worry somewhat.

“Logically speaking, there might be a limit to the number of talents one can have. After reaching ten talents, how will I continue to acquire new ones?”
