Chapter 36: A New Day and Another Sh*t Chapter

When Xu Han arrived home, a calm and peaceful feeling surrounded him. The familiar environment made him feel relaxed after a long day outside. He let out a sigh of relief. However, the peaceful atmosphere was broken by the soft sounds of cleaning coming from Lingxi, who was busy cleaning in the hallway.

Lingxi moved carefully and skillfully, making things neat and organized. Her gaze lit up upon spotting Xu Han as she said called out, "Master," and paused her cleaning, putting her tools aside for a moment. She continued, "I'll get your meal ready once I finish tidying up."

Xu Han simply nodded and headed to his room. After entering the room, he closed the door behind him. With careful motions, he reached into his inner robe and took out the Spiritual Imprint Skill.

The cover was brown and had beautiful patterns that shone in the light. "Spiritual Imprint Skill" was written at the top. Xu Han sat down on his bed, crossed his legs, and began to read and comprehend the skill.

After some time, around thirty minutes or so, Lingxi's voice could be heard throughout the house, calling Xu Han to come eat. He closed the skill book and went to join Lingxi for a meal, enjoying the delicious food she had prepared. After finishing his meal, he returned to his room and continued comprehending the Spiritual Imprint Skill.

…

Xuan Ji's day had taken a frustrating turn. First, he had met his demise in the Simulation in a rather ridiculous manner. Then, his encounter with Xu Han had left him feeling quite unsettled. However, as he returned from spending hours outside, immersed in his drinks, an unexpected shift occurred.

Oddly enough, the drinks seemed to have lifted his spirits instead of making him feel worse. Even though he drank wine, he didn't get drunk like most people would. His body, being a cultivator's, could handle ordinary wine as if it were as mild as water.

After stepping into his room, he settled down on his bed and started to wait for the Celestial Simulator's Cooldown to finish. As he waited, thoughts filled his mind. "This time, I need to be careful and aim for the best rewards," he told himself with determination.

The idea that someone might be playing with him crossed his mind, but Xuan Ji dismissed it quickly. He believed the Celestial Simulator was beyond what any cultivator could create – it was almost divine. To him, Celestial Simulator was a natural treasure, a gift from heaven that he was lucky to have.

He considered the challenges he faced as a normal part of the process. If everything came to him effortlessly, it wouldn't seem proper. And if everything could be gained with little effort, then why not just receive it directly instead of going through the lengthy process of simulation?

It's worth noting that these reflections had also crossed his mind while he was sipping his wine. In fact, this introspection over his drink was the primary reason for the newfound brightness in his spirits.

After waiting for several hours, the eagerly anticipated cooldown finally came to an end. As he attempted to connect to the simulator once again, a display of golden lines of text appeared before him.

[Welcome to the Celestial Simulator. You have confirmed the activation of the simulation!]

[You have two options –]

[Option 1: Continue the last simulation but everything needs to start from the beginning. You need to survive in the Immortal cultivation simulation for 15 years before you can have an extra newborn talent.]

[Option 2: Start a new simulation.]

He didn't take long to decide as he said: "I choose option 1."

[You have chosen to start previous life…]

[Your personal attributes are...]

[Name: Xuan Ji]

[State of mind: 1]

[Fortune: 1]

[Perseverance: 2]

[Background: 2]

[Talent: Sword]

[Hint: If any attribute reaches zero, the probability of death will be greatly increased.]

[Your simulated life has officially begun –]

[Countdown: 10, 9... 0!]

[Simulation begins!]

[Age 0: You have been born into a merchant family. Your father is the head of the merchant family.]

[Age 1: Your first year was ordinary, like that of any child.]

…

Meanwhile, on the other side, Xu Han sensed Xuan Ji's attempt to connect to the Simulator. This prompted him to interrupt his own focus on comprehending the Spiritual Imprint Skill. Acting swiftly, Xu Han granted Xuan Ji access to the Celestial Simulator. As he did so, he commented while placing the skill under a pillow, "The cooldown period is finally over. Time truly flies, doesn't it?"

With these words, Xu Han attempted to access the displayed golden lines of text before him, eager to witness the unfolding of Xuan Ji's Simulation.

[Age 0: Xuan Ji is born into a merchant family. His father is the head of the merchant family.]

[Age 1: His first year was ordinary, like that of any child.]

…

[Age 2: You began your cultivation, just like in the previous simulation using the Ancient Emperor Arcana technique.]

[Age 3: Following the pattern of previous simulations, you decided to protect your family from the impending disaster that might happen after the death of the demonic cultivator. So, you wrote a letter to your father in the name of a great cultivator, warning him to leave the village for their safety. You also gave them the cultivation technique, which you wrote exactly like you got from the righteous cultivator in the previous simulation, to make them believe and make them leave.]

[Age 4: Presently on a migration journey, you initiated your departure from the village earlier than in the previous simulation. Your discrete aid in your father's business played a role in hastening your leave.]

[It took you two and a half months to journey to a distant small city from your village. Even during your travels, you remained diligent in your cultivation. However, this time you arrived two to three months earlier compared to the previous simulation, allowing you sufficient time to retrieve resources from both the deceased righteous cultivator and the demonic cultivator.]
