Simulate daily life
Going to a cave somewhere in Mount Wendao, Qianluo consolidated her cultivation and absorbed the spiritual energy from the mine, turning it into her own use. She simulated Sun Rushuang's whereabouts to determine whether she was safe.
[This simulation consumes 10 points, 99 simulation opportunities remaining, and 990 points remaining.]
Start simulation
At 18, you went to District 7 to look for Sun Rushuang. Your plan was to sneak across to District 8, then from District 8 to District 7. However, in District 8, you became nostalgic for the past and returned to Street 8.
[You encountered three Qigong Great Perfection monks, but you were no match for them and unfortunately passed away.]
[Simulation ends…]
"Huh? What's going on? How did I offend three Qigong masters who have reached the great perfection?" It was already difficult to deal with Yan Bufan, who had reached the great perfection of Qigong, let alone three of them.
Qian Luo was completely baffled. Could it be that... after killing Yan Bufan, someone discovered them? Or was there an ambush at 8th Street? If they didn't go there...
[This simulation consumes 10 points, 98 simulation opportunities remaining, and 980 points remaining.]
Start simulation
At the age of 18, you went to District 7 to look for Sun Rushuang. Your plan was to first sneak across to District 8, and then from District 8 to District 7.
This time, you didn't return to 8th Street, but went to the 8th District ferry crossing. However, you encountered three Qigong Great Perfection cultivators again. You were no match for them and unfortunately died.
[Simulation ends…]
Three more Qigong Great Perfection cultivators? Was she killed again? In District 8, a Qigong Great Perfection cultivator should be at the elder level. After all, the District Chief of District 8 was in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment.
He is not a half-baked person like Yan Bufan who fell from the early stage of foundation building to the great perfection of Qi training.
Qianluo thought carefully about whether she had ever angered the district chief. Besides practicing, she usually worked part-time and had no time to cause trouble...
The last time I caused trouble was probably...
"Zhang Yong!" Her mind suddenly became clear, and she remembered how Zhang Yong died. He had told her that he had a close relationship with the mayor of District 8. If she killed him, the mayor would definitely come after her!
That's right. The person who could command three Qigong Great Perfection cultivators must be the Foundation Establishment District Head. Could it be that Zhang Yong wasn't just boasting? Did he really have a close relationship with the District Head of District 8?
But according to Uncle Wang Wutong, Zhang Yong is an orphan who has lived on charity from neighbors since childhood. How could he be related to the mayor of District 8?
If he was truly an important relative of the District 8 Chief, why was he left without anyone to care for him from birth? It was only decades later that he successfully channeled Qi into his body and became a minor steward.
Qianluo couldn't figure it out and could only continue the simulation. Since it was the District 8 Chief who wanted her dead, he must have gotten the news from the smuggling port, but she didn't necessarily have to enter District 7 by smuggling.
And her precious little black cauldron, which could easily break the mountain protection formation of the District Chief of District 9, could it break through the barriers between districts and counties?
The most important point is that if she can break through the district and county barriers, will the Upper Three Districts know that she killed Yan Bufan? The Upper Three Districts have not taken any action so far and are extremely calm, as if nothing had happened.
[This simulation consumes 10 points, 97 simulation opportunities remaining, and 970 points remaining.]
Start simulation
At 18, you planned to break through the barrier of District 9 and enter District 8 in order to find Sun Rushuang in District 7. However, you possessed the magical Black Cauldron, allowing you to pass through the barrier without breaking it.
[You weren't assassinated by the cultivators in the upper three districts, but you were discovered by three Qi training great perfection elders in District 8. Unfortunately, you died during the battle.]
[Simulation ends…]
Good news: You can easily enter Area 8 with the Little Black Cauldron! That's great! It even has the ability to cross barriers!
Bad news: dead again.
After much deliberation, Qianluo decided to disguise herself and go to Area 8. She rummaged through Yan Bufan's storage bag and found a Breath-Resisting Pill and a Disguise Pill. What changes will this simulation bring?
[This simulation consumes 10 points, 96 simulation opportunities remaining, and 960 points remaining.]
Start simulation
At the age of 18, you took the Disguise Pill and the Breath-Suppressing Pill to search for Sun Rushuang in District 7, successfully sneaking into District 8. You then used the Little Black Cauldron to enter District 7 again.
You continue your disguise and successfully enter the palace of District 7, becoming a "concubine" of District Chief Chen Ziqiu. Under the influence of various forces, you gradually lose yourself, lose your mind, fall into a trap, and become a tool for the District Chief to cultivate.
[You were over-absorbed and unfortunately passed away.]
[Simulation ends…]
Qian Luo: "Taking essence? What's this District 7 Chief doing? Taking Yin to replenish Yang?" Considering what was said before about Sun Rushuang's special physique, could it be that the District 7 Chief specially sought out a "concubine"? To practice martial arts?
Even though they are already local tyrants, the district heads still try their best to improve their cultivation and exploit the people. Yan Bufan is like this, as is the head of District Eight and District Seven!
[This simulation consumes 10 points, 96 simulation opportunities remaining, and 960 points remaining.]
Start simulation
【At 18 years old... you successfully entered District 7.】
You continued your disguise, remaining vigilant, and became the "concubine" of District 7 Chief Chen Ziqiu. After years of suffering, you finally found Sun Rushuang, whose hair had turned white from excessive sexual exploitation, in a secluded palace.
[At age 30, you planned to escape District 7 with Sun Rushuang, but Chen Ziqiu had sex with many women, his cultivation level increased significantly, and he encountered the Dan-forming thunder tribulation.]
[You and Sun Rushuang were struck by lightning and both died.]
[Simulation ends…]
Finally found Sun Rushuang! Qianluo wrote down Sun Rushuang's appearance this time, so it would be easier to find her next time. Previously, she had memorized the names and appearances of three Qigong Great Perfection elders from District 8 and the District Head of District 7, though the District Head of District 8 had never appeared.
Only in District 7 in the simulator did she hear the news that the District Chief of District 8 had reached the end of his life. When she escaped, District 8 had a new District Chief.
These district chiefs use every possible means to increase their lifespan and cultivation.
This time, she also wanted to try to visit the former residence in District 8.
[This simulation consumes 10 points, 95 simulation opportunities remaining, and 950 points remaining.]
Start simulation
At the age of 18, you took the Breath-Resisting Pill and the Disguise Pill and entered District 8, Street 8. You successfully returned to your old home, packed up your things, and entered District 7.
You continue your disguise, remaining vigilant, and become the "concubine" of the District 7 Chief, searching for Sun Rushuang. You finally find her by chance.
At the age of 20, you and Sun Rushuang escaped from District 7, using every possible means to avoid District Chief Chen Ziqiu. In the end, you were defeated by him.
[You and Sun Rushuang were hit by Chen Ziqiu and both died.]
[Simulation ends…]
Qianluo sorted out the information: First, she could take the Breath-Resisting Pill and the Disguise Pill to prevent assassination attempts by the District Eight elders. Second, she could enter the old residence and take one last look. Third, Chen Ziqiu, who was in the late Foundation Establishment stage, had taken energizing stimulants from many women and was about to form a pill, so he needed to quickly improve his cultivation. Fourth, Sun Rushuang's life was safe; as long as she could successfully deal with Chen Ziqiu before she turned 30, she could save her.
However, to save Sun Rushuang, one must at least be in the late stage of foundation building.
"Now... I haven't established my foundation yet..." Qian Luo covered her head and looked at the ordinary little black cauldron in front of her. Next to it were spirit-replenishing fruits, spirit-gathering grass, and blood-clotting grass... These basic materials could be used to make simple Qi-gathering powder and rejuvenation powder. She would start with the simplest one.
In fact, she really wanted to use the Little Black Cauldron to exchange for 100 million points to quickly improve her alchemy skills. However, her Little Black Cauldron was still useful! She could easily enter the 8th District with it!
Therefore, she became increasingly puzzled. Why couldn't she find the Little Black Cauldron in Yan Bufan's alchemy room? Could it be that it was so precious that even simulators couldn't replicate it? Was there only one?
"Ah, what a toilsome life!"
Now, all she needs is the Foundation Establishment Pill to break through! She has already reached that bottleneck. Her spiritual energy is not bad, she only needs the Foundation Establishment Pill!
She searched through Yan Bufan's storage bag but couldn't find a Foundation Establishment Pill, because the recipe for the Foundation Establishment Pill was: Hundred-year-old Gathering Spirit Grass, Hundred-year-old Polygonatum, Hundred-year-old Tianling Fruit and other common herbs.
If you are lucky, you can find the Hundred-Year Spirit Gathering Grass and Hundred-Year Polygonatum in the mountains, but the Hundred-Year Heavenly Spirit Fruit is not common. Some of them appear in secret realms with abundant spiritual energy.
As Yan Bufan's cultivation level declined, he naturally found the materials for building the foundation. However, he lacked the most important hundred-year-old Tianling Fruit. So he could only think of using Shangyang Xiaohuandan and using the Golden Fire Spirit Root instead of the Golden Fire Linghua.
"We're still short of one last Heavenly Spirit Fruit..."
Now is the time when she has the most opportunities to simulate. Why wait any longer?
[This simulation consumes 10 points, 94 simulation opportunities remaining, and 940 points remaining.]
Start simulation
At 18, you painstakingly searched for the Centennial Heavenly Spiritual Fruit and finally found a small secret realm in District 6. It's said that this secret realm has a cultivation restriction, and only Qigong cultivators can enter. Those who harvest the best spiritual plants will receive a Foundation Establishment Pill as a reward from the District Chief.
[A month later, with your Qi training reaching Great Perfection, you are invincible below the Foundation Establishment stage. You frantically gather spiritual plants in the secret realm, defeating dozens of fellow cultivators of the same level in battles. Finally, you obtain a Hundred-Year-Old Heavenly Spirit Fruit and the first-place prize—the Foundation Establishment Pill.]
At the age of 19, you successfully established your foundation and sneaked into District 7 to rescue Sun Rushuang. However, you were discovered by Chen Ziqiu, lost the duel, and unfortunately passed away.
[After the simulation is over, you can choose one of the options to convert.]
[Choose 1, 19-year-old cultivation level]
[Select 2, 19-year-old training items]
[Select 3, 19-year-old life memory]
Qian Luo's heart was trembling with excitement. For the first time, she believed in gods and Buddhas and rubbed her hands together. "God Ou, please protect me and help me get the Heavenly Spirit Fruit and the Foundation Establishment Pill!"
[The simulation is over. You have obtained a number of low-grade spirit stones.]
If you don’t believe it, smoke again!
[Simulation ends, you have obtained 50 pieces of Soul-Replenishing Grass.]
[The simulation ends, and you obtain a Hundred-Year Heavenly Spirit Fruit.]
[The simulation is over. You have obtained a number of low-grade spirit stones.]
[Simulation ends, you get a Foundation Establishment Pill]
…
Finally, there were 50 simulation opportunities and 500 points left. She got 3 foundation-building pills and 5 heavenly spirit fruits, as well as 100 low-grade spirit stones and other spirit plants.
This is a good deal, quite worthwhile!
Qianluo is ready to fight, first build the foundation and then refine the elixir! Senior Lan Mingzhu's cultivation notes were completed when he reached the Great Perfection of Qi Training. There was no record of the experience of building the foundation. However, Lan Mingzhu's parents were cultivators in the middle stage of foundation building and had considerable experience. They annotated it and wrote down their experience of building the foundation.
Building a foundation involves gathering Qi into a liquid, and transforming spiritual energy into a foundation. Becoming a foundation-building cultivator is the true beginning of cultivation, transcending the ordinary into an immortal, detached from worldly affairs, with expanded spiritual awareness, a lifespan of over 200 years, and the ability to fly with a sword.
To lay the foundation, one needs to practice in a place with sufficient spiritual energy. It is best to have someone to protect you or set up a defensive formation to ensure that you are not disturbed by outsiders and prevent any trouble before it happens.
Those with outstanding spiritual roots only need one foundation-building pill or even no foundation-building pills. Ordinary cultivators with multiple spiritual roots must take two or more foundation-building pills to ensure that there is enough medicinal power to impact the foundation-building process.
Qian Luo looked at the three foundation-building pills in front of her and thought that if she simulated it now, she might be able to gain foundation-building skills from the simulation, but... she wanted to try the feeling of truly building a foundation herself.
She had never experienced the process of drawing Qi into her body, and had directly achieved the first level of Qi training through the simulation. This time, she wanted to reach the foundation building stage on her own, preparing for the subsequent breakthroughs to the core formation stage and even the Nascent Soul stage. Next time, she might not have such a good opportunity to form a core in the simulation, and she might need to do it herself.
A defensive formation was found in Yan Bufan’s storage bag, and the eight characters “Practice in seclusion, do not disturb” were carved into the entrance of the cave using spiritual energy.
There is abundant spiritual energy in the mine, enough for cultivation, and she has three foundation-building pills. With the right time, place and people, she can build the foundation now!
There was a cool breeze at night, and the night dew was heavy. Mines of all sizes emitted a faint, colorful light. These were all from diligent and hardworking monks who were practicing, forgetting to eat and sleep, and not daring to stop for a moment.
Dignity lies only on the edge of a sword. Everyone is afraid that if they don’t work hard to cultivate, they will go back to their old ways and be bullied.
Qian Luo was no exception. From District 8 to District 9, from the first mortal couple she killed to Yan Bufan, the District Chief of District 8, her hands were stained with countless blood. Mortals and cultivators are all human beings.
If I don't kill him, he will kill me.
In an era where the strong prey on the weak, strength is the only thing that matters. Winning or losing determines life and death, so you can't be careless.
Qian Luo closed her eyes, calmed her mind, felt the gathering of spiritual energy in the world, slowly introduced the spiritual energy into her dantian, and felt the direction of the spiritual energy flowing in her dantian.
Long and slow, like a stream, the spiritual energy gathered more and more, and after it became a vast ocean, she stopped absorbing the spiritual energy, and instead continued to compress the spiritual energy, circulating it continuously, consolidating the foundation, and exercising her true essence.
When she was exhausted, she swallowed a foundation-building pill to relieve the pressure. A thin layer of sweat seeped out of her forehead, and her meridians expanded and continued to surge. The surging spiritual energy came from all directions, squeezing into the narrow and slender meridians and continuously widening them.
"Puff——" Her throat felt slightly sweet, and a mouthful of blood spurted out. She was sweating profusely and felt extremely weak.
No wonder we need someone to protect us, otherwise if the enemy attacks, we will be at the mercy of others.
Qianluo closed her eyes, swallowed the second foundation-building pill, and practiced quietly. She crossed her legs, expanded her meridians, and repeatedly exercised her true energy in a continuous cycle.
After the small circulation, the spiritual energy turns into liquid, and then into liquefied true essence. The breath gradually becomes stable, the breathing becomes long, the face becomes rosy, and a faint spiritual light flashes on the forehead. The aura of the whole body becomes more restrained, the spiritual energy is full, and it exudes a lustrous luster.
She closed her eyes and concentrated her mind, concentrating on building her spiritual foundation, continuing to smoothly go through each small cycle, and taking the last foundation-building pill when she was exhausted.
She doesn't have to worry about not having enough pills, she can simulate again to get the Foundation Establishment Pill and the Heavenly Spirit Fruit.
As a result, my mentality became more relaxed, the haze between my brows gradually dissipated, my skin became as white as snow, and as flawless as jade.
…
There is no time in the mountains. White birds fly freely, green smoke blows gently, streams gurgle by, and the leaves turn yellow, fall off, and finally turn into mud.
The monks in the mine were replaced day and night. When Liu Xiaoqing and others came to visit her and saw the words at the door, their expressions changed. They walked carefully and even strengthened the defense of the Wending Mountain. They felt ashamed of their own cultivation.
Miss Qianluo is practicing hard, so why should I be lazy?
Therefore, everyone practices internal cultivation, holds cultivation competitions, and strives to be the first model worker monk!
Qianluo was unaware of all this. Ten days later, she opened her eyes again. The aura around her became restrained, and a spiritual light flashed. Her foundation had been established.
Now, he has reached the initial stage of foundation building.
