......

[Available Spirit Points: 46.68]

Some of the new ten talent choices are the same as those in the first simulation.

But many new options also appeared.

Jiang Ming skillfully skipped over the four-digit and five-digit priced options and looked at the last few.

When he saw the Basic Comprehension Bonus, Jiang Ming’s heart was undeniably moved.

However, upon seeing the price afterward, Jiang Ming’s excitement waned.

The Basic Comprehension Bonus is clearly a level stronger than the Weak Comprehension Bonus, yet the price is a hundred times higher.

Jiang Ming looked at the last few.

The Spirit Root can certainly be exchanged for.

However, the option for Four Spirit Roots did not appear this time, and Jiang Ming was uncertain if he had the ability to exchange for the Four Spirit Roots.

"Since that’s the case, I can only take a gamble."

Jiang Ming mumbled.

After all, the loss is only five Spirit Points.

Since further talent choices cannot be made in subsequent simulations of this reincarnation trial, it was natural for Jiang Ming to spend all available Spirit Points.

"Choose talents..."

Jiang Ming exchanged for [Micro-Operation Master], [Spirit Root Blind Box], and [Innate Adventure].

[Talent selection complete, [Micro-Operation Master] [Spirit Root Blind Box] [Innate Adventure] loading...]

The text on the scroll dissipated dreamily.

As if by itself, each elegant letter appeared on the pristine scroll, manifesting as if painted with invisible ink.

Jiang Ming actively looked at these words.

[Save Two (unnamed)]

[Location: Changzhou, an affiliated mortal dynasty Qi Dynasty of the Great Wei Immortal Dynasty, Huiguang County]

[Family Background: A common tenant farming family]

[Remaining Simulation Attempts: Four]

Jiang Ming’s brow furrowed slightly.

The second simulation had cultivation talents, but the start was much worse compared to the first simulation.

However...

The prefix of this birth location is the same as the first simulation.

Jiang Ming even knew about the Qi Dynasty.

It is a powerful dynasty north of the Jinn Dynasty, with only one small country separating them.

Both have expanded to their utmost limits, and no longer covet each other; rather, their relationship isn’t bad.

Most crucially...

The sect of Immortal Masters slain by Li Jin, the Qingshan Sect, is reportedly located in the northern part of the Qi Dynasty.

Because of this, the Qi Dynasty holds an advantage in negotiations with the Jinn Dynasty.

However, the immortals of the Qingshan Sect rarely interfere with mortal affairs.

Even when their disciples are slain, no one cares; the separation between immortals and mortals is nearly complete.

"Having a cultivation sect nearby is an advantage over the first simulation..."

Various scenes flashed rapidly through Jiang Ming’s mind.

[Daqi Calendar 1680, you were born into an ordinary tenant farmer family]

A child was born into an ordinary tenant farmer family.

He was the second-born.

This simulation being a tenant farmer, naturally lacked the noble family’s tradition of naming the child after three months or at adulthood.

This simulation had only a very simple name.

Zhu Ergou (Zhu Two Dog).

Very common and ordinary, but it is a name typical of all those at the bottom.

An unassuming name is easier to nurture.

Just as Zhu Ergou’s parents expected, Zhu Ergou grew up without illness or mishaps.

This was a blessing for a tenant farmer family.

It meant they would have another laborer.

Tenant farmers naturally have no land, relying on landlords, working for them in exchange for enough food to survive.

They are society’s bottom, yet countless people like them support the whole Qi Dynasty.

The life of a tenant farmer is very monotonous and simple, almost like being imprisoned.

They cannot leave the fields they cultivate.

Like emotionless farming machines.

Even if each simulation defaults to a transmigrator.

Jiang Ming in this life could do nothing in his childhood.

Compose an immortal piece, pretend to be a prodigy?

In this life, Jiang Ming’s parents and surrounding people couldn’t read a word.

Besides, he had no means to learn. Even if he wrote poetry known by the landlord, they’d burn him as a demon.

So everything was ordinary before Zhu Ergou turned eight.

[Daqi Calendar 1688, while playing in the mountains, you accidentally drank from a Spiritual Spring. The void in your body was filled, and something seemed to change inside you.]

Besides drinking from a spring when he was eight that made Zhu Ergou seem more spirited than other children, everything was ordinary.

Fortunately, these years were free of natural disasters, and the landlord wasn’t someone like Zhou Bapi.

Though monotone and pressured, it was also peaceful.

During these eight years, Zhu Ergou’s parents thanked God more than ten times.

Jiang Ming watched this life of farming in the fields and massaged his temples.

Farming?

I’m a seed for cultivation.

[The same year, at age eight, you plan to practice some martial arts from your past life, to break free from the cage.]

Fortunately, he reached eight.

Jiang Ming exhaled a breath.

In these eight years, he noticed something.

Zhu Ergou is not just the life he simulated after transmigrating, but also the life he simulates at his current stage of transmigration.

Simply put, what Jiang Ming knows now, Zhu Ergou knows too.

Of course, he must go out and simulate.

Zhu Ergou knows the Celestial Demon Heart Devouring Technique, the Nameless Calming Heart Method, the Demon Slayer Saber, Wind Chasing Leg, and Severing Flame Palm.

There’s no way through literature, naturally one must turn to martial arts.

But tenant families struggle even to have enough to eat.

Mortal martial arts, before reaching the innate, inherently depend heavily on resources.

One reason for Li Jin’s rapid progress was his solid family background.

Now Zhu Ergou might already be cleansing his body with the Celestial Demon Heart Devouring Technique and the Nameless Calming Heart Method.

But it’s not one-tenth as effective as Li Jin’s second life.

The opportunity bought with Spirit Points—the Spiritual Spring—nourished Zhu Ergou’s body, preventing loss of essence.

He’s eight now, time to start practicing martial arts.

But he can only practice part due to the lack of resources.

"Take it slow..."
