Simulating Endless Possibilities: Invincible Once I Act

Chapter 35: Intelligence Reduction Aura, terrifying as such



【After a brief moment of shock, you realized you had underestimated yourself.】

【Seeing a Core Formation stage expert, you instinctively chose to flee and hide.】

【Upon reflection, you remembered that your Martial Dao had already reached the third major realm, the Qi Motion Realm.】

【Comparing Martial Dao to Immortal Dao, the Qi Motion Realm corresponds to the Core Formation stage.】

【You slapped your forehead and sighed, "I was careless."】

【You felt it was a miscalculation on your part, failing to accurately assess your own strength.】

【Had you known earlier, you thought you could have been bolder in this simulation.】

【But it's all in the past, and you didn't bother to dwell on it.】

【Looking around, you found yourself transported to a mountain forest.】

【You were quite satisfied with the surroundings and decided to spend the remaining time here cultivating in seclusion.】

【As for the Immortal Slave who attacked you earlier? You believed he wouldn't find you here.】

【After all, you had been teleported a thousand miles away. Even for a Core Formation stage expert, it would take two hours of flying, and he didn't know the direction, making it hard to locate you.】

【Days passed, and indeed, the Immortal Slave did not find you. You felt a bit disappointed.】

【In your heart, you were somewhat eager to be found and have a battle.】

【After all, it was a Core Formation stage expert. Engaging in a fight would help you better gauge your own strength.】

【If you couldn't win, based on the punch you took earlier, you were confident you could escape again using the Teleportation Jade Plate.】

【Unfortunately, you couldn't fulfill that wish.】

【In the fifty-second year, Heavenly Thunder descended as scheduled.】

【After being struck several times, you could no longer withstand it.】

【You died at the age of 72!】

【This simulation has ended.】

【You can choose two rewards from this simulation: Eye of Insight (Talent), Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method), Martial Dao Cultivation, Immortal Dao Cultivation.】

【Eye of Insight (Talent)】: Costs 1 million Energy Value.

【Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao Mental Cultivation Method)】: Costs 10 million Energy Value.

【Martial Dao Cultivation】: Costs 100,000 Energy Value; (Although it doesn't enhance your realm, experiencing Heavenly Thunder once more has improved your cultivation.)

【Immortal Dao Cultivation】: Costs 1 million Energy Value; (The realm hasn't increased, but a Nine-Grade Golden Core polished for 52 years seems to have some effect.)

Jiang Yifeng looked at the simulation rewards, somewhat surprised.

Originally, he had planned to choose the talent and the Heavenly Profound Art.

After all, neither his Martial Dao nor Immortal Dao cultivation had increased in realm, so he didn't expect these two options to be available.

Unexpectedly, even without a realm increase, they appeared in the reward list.

This hadn't happened before.

But upon closer thought, Jiang Yifeng found it reasonable.

The higher the realm, the harder it is to advance. It's possible to be stuck at a minor realm for many years.

If the rewards only appeared with realm advancements, the simulator's usefulness would diminish in the later stages.

Perhaps this hadn't happened before because his realm was too low.

Or maybe the simulator had its own calculation method, requiring a certain threshold to be met for rewards to appear.

Looking at the reward list, Jiang Yifeng made his choice.

"I choose Eye of Insight (Talent) and Immortal Dao Cultivation."

【Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining the talent: Eye of Insight, deducting 1 million Energy Value, remaining Energy Value: 11.2 billion...】

【Ding, Immortal Dao Cultivation successfully extracted, Golden Core polishing time increased by 52 years, deducting 1 million Energy Value, remaining Energy Value: 11.2 billion...】

This time, Jiang Yifeng didn't feel anything special from the reward extraction.

As for why he chose this way, it was because he wanted to aim for a Ten-Grade Golden Core.

Previously, he sought opportunities to break through to the Ten-Grade, but now knowing the simulator could accumulate time, he thought multiple simulations might achieve it.

He believed that with enough time, even an iron rod could be ground into a needle.

After finishing the extraction, Jiang Yifeng walked out of his room feeling refreshed.

Looking at the sky, it was time to visit the Pleasure House and listen to music.

Jiang Yifeng shook his paper fan and headed towards the Spring Blossom Pavilion.

After all, a playboy must act like a playboy.

Especially after this simulation, he knew there were Immortal Slaves hidden in Green Hills City, including someone he knew. He couldn't afford to show any abnormality.

But who was this acquaintance?

The simulation didn't reveal the person's name.

Jiang Yifeng was quite curious.

A week passed quickly.

In fact, these past few days had been quite nerve-wracking for Jiang Yifeng.

Every day he listened to music with his heart in his throat.

Because with the Eye of Insight, he had identified which acquaintance was the Immortal Slave.

To his surprise, it was Qiu Zhixuan, the courtesan of the Spring Blossom Pavilion.

She was indeed an old acquaintance. Jiang Yifeng had frequented her services many times before.

Knowing Qiu Zhixuan was an Immortal Slave, Jiang Yifeng considered not going to the Pleasure House.

But then he thought it best to maintain his usual lifestyle.

Reality wasn't a simulation; there were no do-overs. Any flaw could bring danger, Jiang Yifeng thought.

At this moment, seeing the simulation attempts had refreshed, Jiang Yifeng quickly returned to his room and softly muttered.

"Start simulation!"

【Consuming 1 simulation attempt, remaining attempts 0】

【Drawing Blue Talent costs 100,000 Energy Value, drawing Purple Talent costs 1 million Energy Value, please choose!】

"Draw Purple Talent."

【Ding, deducting 1 million Energy Value, drawing Purple Talent, remaining Energy Value 11.2 billion...】

【Congratulations to the host for obtaining Purple Talent: Intelligence Reduction Aura.】

【Intelligence Reduction Aura】: Essential for the protagonist, those who interact with you will have their intelligence forcibly reduced. (Note: Without the fate of a protagonist, having the "illness" of a protagonist might not always be a good thing!)

"This..."

Looking at the talent he drew, Jiang Yifeng felt both joy and sorrow.

If it weren't for the "note" at the end, he might have been happy.

After all, having read countless novels in his past life, Jiang Yifeng knew how absurd the Intelligence Reduction Aura was.

But seeing the note, Jiang Yifeng felt it was subtly mocking him.

Forget it, let's see how the simulation goes.

【The 12th simulation begins.】

【Knowing you were entering the simulation, you immediately left your room, preparing to head to the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple.】

【Just as you stepped out, you encountered Little Peach, the maid, carrying tea.】

【Seeing you, her face turned red, and she stared at you intently. Then you heard a "plop" as Little Peach, distracted by looking at you, fell into a pond.】

【The pond wasn't deep, not enough to drown her, so you didn't pay much attention and continued walking outside.】

【On the street, you were suddenly stopped by a young master you didn't recognize, likely an outsider passing through Green Hills City.】

【He accused you of looking at him and ordered his men to gouge out your eyes as an apology.】

【You suddenly felt something was off, like a scene from a novel you read in your past life.】

【That's when you realized the Intelligence Reduction Aura had already taken effect.】

【But this seemed even more awkward. Just for looking at him, he was causing trouble?】

【You couldn't help but marvel: Intelligence Reduction Aura, truly terrifying!】
