Chapter 19: Simulation energy exceeds 10 billion, yet cannot upgrade the Simulator
Jiang Yifeng shook his head, putting away all his thoughts.
He felt that thinking too much now was useless.
In the future, not showing any signs of cultivation in reality was fundamental to staying safe.
He then turned his attention to the rewards from this simulation.
Jiang Yifeng didn't hesitate much about the rewards this time. The Big Eater (Talent) had reached its limit after perfecting his body, so there was no need to choose it again.
He had long wanted to select the Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method), but there was no rush. The method was always there, and he could obtain it in any simulation, so he would choose it later when the opportunity arose.
Quickly, Jiang Yifeng made his choice.
"I choose Spirit Stones (2000 pieces) and Martial Dao Cultivation (Body Refining Perfection)."
[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining 2000 Spirit Stones, deducting 20 million energy points, remaining energy value 7.8 billion...]
[Martial Dao Cultivation (Body Refining Perfection) successfully extracted, deducting 100,000 energy points, remaining energy value 7.8 billion...]Immediately, Jiang Yifeng felt a warm current pass through his body, with his bones making slight "crackling" sounds.
He understood that this was the simulator enhancing his Martial Dao cultivation.
The process involved a slight pain, but fortunately, it didn't last long.
After the enhancement, Jiang Yifeng clenched his fists, clearly feeling that his strength had increased several times.
He now just wanted to shout: "Who else!"
Fortunately, he was rational enough to quickly control his impulse.
With his cultivation in hand, Jiang Yifeng looked around but didn't find the Spirit Stones.
He couldn't help but softly call out.
"Simulator, simulator, where are the Spirit Stones?"
[Ding, the Spirit Stones have been placed in the host's storage ring, please check!]
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yifeng hurriedly checked his storage ring.
Sure enough, 2000 Spirit Stones were piled up inside.

With all rewards confirmed, Jiang Yifeng looked at the remaining simulation chance in the simulator, pondering whether to continue simulating.
The simulator could store up to three simulation chances, with half a month left before reaching the limit.
Could he gather enough energy points to upgrade the simulator during this time?
Could the steward Jiang Dafu bring back 200 chests of gold and silver within half a month?
Jiang Yifeng wasn't sure, but he decided to wait and see.
After making his decision, Jiang Yifeng left the Jiang Family Mansion and headed towards the Spring Blossom Pavilion.
The playboy persona was unshakable.
However, as Jiang Yifeng walked down the street, he subconsciously observed the crowd.
Especially those wearing black clothes, he even wanted to keep a few steps away from them.
The days of listening to music at the pleasure house passed quickly.
In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.
At this time, Jiang Yifeng's simulation chances had returned to three.
And steward Jiang Dafu was indeed reliable.
The 200 chests of gold and silver had just been delivered, and Jiang Yifeng arranged for them to be placed in his basement.
Now, the basement looked like it had over a thousand chests.
Of course, most of them were empty chests used by Jiang Yifeng to mislead others.
Ignoring the empty chests, Jiang Yifeng placed his hand on the 200 chests containing gold and silver.
He converted them one by one into energy points.
As Jiang Yifeng converted them, the number of empty chests in the basement increased by 200.
[Ding, conversion successful, obtained 3.8 billion energy points, remaining energy value 12.6 billion...]
...
After a long while, Jiang Yifeng was a bit dazed.
What was going on? 10 billion energy points still weren't enough to upgrade?
Jiang Yifeng frowned, wondering if he had made a mistake somewhere.
So he tried calling out in his mind, "Simulator upgrade?"
[Ding, detected that the host's strength is too low to meet the upgrade conditions!]
[Solemn reminder to the host, the next upgrade condition for this simulator is: possess 1 billion energy points, and either Immortal Dao or Martial Dao cultivation must reach the second major realm.]
"Damn it, why didn't you say so earlier!!"
Jiang Yifeng was about to go crazy. He had been waiting for the simulator to upgrade, thinking he could draw a better talent and quickly enhance his strength.
Now he was told that the energy points for the upgrade had long been sufficient, but he lacked the strength and realm.
Wasn't this a joke!
Jiang Yifeng's complaints received no response from the simulator.
He shook his head helplessly.
This might be the trouble of being wealthy. Clearly, the energy points were enough to upgrade the simulator.
Now, the value had to be displayed with ellipses, but he was stuck at insufficient strength.
The simulator probably didn't expect to be bound to such a wealthy host who didn't need to worry about energy points.
It seemed that he needed to focus on enhancing his strength in future simulations.
Since that was the case, Jiang Yifeng didn't hesitate any longer and silently chanted in his mind.
"Start simulation!"
[Consume 1 simulation chance, remaining chances 2]
[Drawing Green Talent consumes 1000 energy points, drawing Blue Talent consumes 100,000 energy points, please choose!]
"Draw Blue Talent."
[Ding, deducting 100,000 energy points, drawing Blue Talent, remaining energy value 12.6 billion...]
[Congratulations, you have obtained Blue Talent: Luck +1]
[Luck +1]: Your luck is slightly better than the average person.
Looking at this luck-related talent, Jiang Yifeng couldn't tell if it was good or bad.
So he didn't think much about it and looked at the simulator's progress.
[8th simulation begins.]
[You sense that you have entered the simulation.]
[On the first day, you leave a letter at home and sneak out of Green Hills City under the cover of darkness.]
[On the fourth day, you arrive at the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple in the Evergreen Mountain Range.]
[On the fifth day, you clean up the ruins, bury all the skeletons, and build a delicate cemetery.]
[At the same time, you obtain the Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method "Heavenly Profound Art."]
[In the following days, you practice the unnamed cultivation method once a day, and spend the rest of your time either searching for food or fully cultivating the "Heavenly Profound Art."]
[In the first year, you consume 6 Spirit Stones, and your Immortal Dao cultivation improves.]
[In the second year, you consume another 6 Spirit Stones, feeling that you are close to reaching the fourth level of Qi Refining.]
[In the third year, a white-robed woman suddenly arrives, mistaking you for a disciple of the ruined sect.]
[Three days later, when she leaves, she plans to leave you some life-saving items and resources.]
[But she finds that you already have them, so she just waves her hand and says goodbye.]
[After the white-robed woman leaves, you feel a bit frustrated, realizing you should have hidden your cultivation resources.]
[You don't mind having one Breath Concealing Talisman and one Teleportation Jade Plate, but not getting any Spirit Stones makes you a bit heartbroken.]
[But there's nothing you can do about it now.]
[This time, you plan to focus on improving your cultivation to meet the simulator upgrade conditions.]
[Feeling unsafe here, you pack up and prepare to leave.]
[As for where to go? You hesitate for a while!]
[Based on your previous simulations, the shadowy figure who attacked the Jiang Family wasn't specifically targeting you.]
[Actually, with the Breath Concealing Talisman, as long as you don't expose your cultivation and your luck isn't too bad, you should be safe.]
[But that's just your assumption, not yet verified. To be more cautious, you decide to head to the Desert of Death.]
[It's the place where you survived the longest in multiple simulations. Although there was an accident the second time, you are well-prepared this time.]
[You believe that as long as you avoid creating too much bloodshed, you should be able to live by hiding.]
[In the fourth year, you reduce your cultivation time, spending most of your time traveling. You follow the route from the Desert of Death Map (Fragment) and cover a considerable distance.]
