With Cultivation Simulator in a Chaotic World-Chapter 97 - 96: Scion of an Aristocratic Family

"Yes."

The scroll slowly unfolded before his eyes.

[Automatically deducted Spirit Points*100, the reincarnation simulation begins.] 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

[Simulation evaluation affects simulation reward, please strive with all your might.]

[Basic Comprehension Bonus: You will gain a comprehensive basic bonus in comprehension. Required price: Spirit Points*100]

Each talent on the scroll glowed brighter than the last.

This feeling was like drawing ten cards in a mobile game, where the first five were all rare finds.

But Jiang Ming knew this was the simulator’s trick; the first five talents were always there to tempt him, even though he had a "fortune" of a thousand Spirit Points, he could only look longingly at those talents.

He couldn’t even afford Dual Spirit Roots right now.

The previous two times, Dual Spirit Root talent was refreshed, needing 2333 in talent.

Jiang Ming seemed to have over a thousand Spirit Points, but most of them came from the broken Phoenix Spirit Pearl from Evergreen City.

The Spirit Points Jiang Ming obtained from daily monster hunting were few, with most coming from purchasing Spirit Points-containing items through Xun Family channels in Mingwu City.

This time, Jiang Ming’s target was originally to exchange for Three Spirit Roots.

Three Spirit Roots, described quite humbly in the simulation, were already regarded as core disciples within the Five Sects Territory, with a sixty percent chance to achieve Foundation Establishment under sect cultivation.

In Cultivation, this probability was already quite high.

Five Spirit Roots were fundamentally at the bottom, lifelong Outer Sect members were mostly Five Spirit Roots, sects didn’t want them, and those who became Loose Cultivators were also Five Spirit Roots.

Four Spirit Roots were relatively better, but still commonplace.

Talent might not determine everything, but it decides most things.

Jiang Ming automatically ignored the first five talents, looking at the ones behind.

This time, Three Spirit Roots were available, at a similar price, possibly paired with a Comprehension or Sword Skill.

In this lifetime, perhaps walking the path of Sword Cultivation could lead to becoming a Foundation Establishment Sword Cultivator.

However...

Jiang Ming looked at the talents above Three Spirit Roots.

Alchemist...

It was the most popular yet challenging profession among the Hundred Skills of Cultivation.

One major reason the Cyan Cloud Sect was so wealthy was its stable Alchemist Hall, but no more than ten alchemists were in it, with most crafting pills up to the top three grades, only the Grand Elder and Pill Hall Master could craft Foundation Establishment Pills.

In contrast, the Talisman Hall had sixty to seventy Talisman Masters regularly, peaking at nearly a hundred, which among the less than fifteen hundred cultivators of Cyan Cloud Sect was a considerably high proportion.

The threshold for Talismans was too low compared to Alchemy Dao.

Despite the Cyan Cloud Sect owning three dynasties reaching the Imperial Extreme Wall, with such vast lands and countless populations, people with Alchemy Dao talent were challenging to find.

The rarity and importance of Alchemists were obvious.

After a moment’s thought, Jiang Ming decided on his choice.

"Select talents, Alchemy Apprentice, Basic Comprehension Bonus."

If not a genius, then diverse yet unskilled; the Comprehension Bonus just suited the Alchemy Dao.

The Alchemy Apprentice came with Spirit Roots, though uncertain of the Spirit Root’s level; the upper limit was Fire and Wood Dual Spirit Roots, the lower Five Spirit Roots, Jiang Ming felt his luck meant he was unlikely to have Dual Spirit Roots.

The font on the scroll dissolved into illusion, ink effortlessly forming elegant script on the white scroll.

[Save Three (unnamed)]

[Location: Changzhou, Great Wei Immortal Dynasty Nine Rivers Plain, Qingqiu River downstream, Ouyang Family]

[Family background: Small Cultivation Family]

[Remaining simulation count: four]

[Nine Rivers Calendar 7893, you were born.]

[You belong to the third branch collateral line of the cultivation family Ouyang; your mother is merely a mortal maid, your father just a common disciple with Five Spirit Roots, your birth drew no attention from the Ouyang Family.]

[Your mother cherished you dearly, hoping you might become a cultivator like your father, free and unbound across heaven and earth.]

[You quietly observed this world, finally accepting the fact of your another crossing over. Before crossing, you had Cultivation Fifth Layer and held a certain amount of cultivation knowledge, quietly gathering information, pondering escape routes.]

Jiang Ming’s every simulation was based on himself but stripped of all simulator-related information, relevant information was rationalized and blurred.

Within the simulator, Jiang Ming was unaware of everything about Jiuzhou World, unlike his true self who knew so much cultivation knowledge, possessing only reduced basic understanding.

But what was there was enough.

[After observing, you discovered the Ouyang Family was a family straddling the mortal and cultivation realm, ruling a nation, its mortal power formidable, its Qi Refining disciples aplenty.]

[But the area described as Qingqiu River downstream merely hosted a small family, of low status.]
