Chapter 22 - 22 King of Zombies

[Day One: The Great Chaos arrives, and the horn of rebellion echoes throughout the Great Song Dynasty. The heavens have perished, the yellow heavens shall rise. You are in the Imperial Palace, the safest place of the Great Song Dynasty, and because you comprehended the Feather Nirvana Heart Scripture beforehand, you have now become a Seventh Grade Martial Artist.

The moon is dim, the wind is high, you attempted to sneak into the Observing Literature Hall to steal the cultivation techniques and martial arts stored within. You knocked out the guards but were noticed by the Palace Guard, and you were captured alive.

This incident reached the Emperor's ears, and you died.]

The moon is dim, the wind is high, you snuck into Consort Jing's sleeping chambers and absorbed the Emperor's Qi from the Holy Decree she possessed. As you were leaving, she noticed and alerted the patrolling Inner Court guards, and you died.]

...

[Do you want to start the Immortal Cultivation Simulator?]

"Yes."

[Available talents: One-legged Knight, Wandering Wanderer, Poetic Talent... King of Zombies.]

"Whoa!"

Chen Mo immediately stood up from the bed.

Then the pain in his buttocks made him unable to stand steadily, and he sat back down again.

Then a wailing sound came from Chen Mo's mouth, and he hurriedly covered his mouth, sucking in cold air.

Even the King of Zombies has shown up.

The most critical thing is, it's still a Golden Talent.

[King of Zombies (Gold): Possesses an indestructible body, immense strength, and super speed. No women in heart, cultivates naturally, loses all emotions, and gains unparalleled cultivation talent. Highly bloodthirsty, can drive a person into a frenzy.]

After reading the talent description.

Chen Mo's expression was complex.

Just losing all emotions alone was something he found hard to accept.

Why do people cultivate?

Why aim for higher heights?

He doesn't know about others.

But for Chen Mo himself, he's quite mundane.

He desires nothing more than to wield power over the world by day, and embrace beauties by night, receiving the admiration of thousands.

And losing all emotions, even standing at the highest peak, what meaning is there?

Not to mention the bloodthirst.

Isn't this the path of evil?

If he chose this talent, wouldn't everyone be after him?

Hunted by others.

Wouldn't he die even faster then?

But it is, after all, a Golden Talent.

Better simulate it first, then lock it, and see if there's anything replaceable later.

He selected two more talents.

Chen Mo began the simulation.

[Day One: The Great Chaos arrives, and the horn of rebellion echoes throughout the Great Song Dynasty. The heavens have perished, the yellow heavens shall rise. You are in the Imperial Palace, the safest place of the Great Song Dynasty, and because you comprehended the Feather Nirvana Heart Scripture beforehand, you have now become a Seventh Grade Martial Artist.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs sent a deer to the kitchen, taking advantage of your position, you drank all the deer's blood.]

[Day Two: You were punished by the Empress, saying you were becoming less attentive and always had a cold face, who really is the master? This week, this is your third punishment from the Empress, and she began to neglect you.]

[Day Three: You fell out of favor, and were transferred from your position, doing dirty and tiring work like washing clothes and mopping the floor, unable to exploit your position to drink various animals' blood from the kitchen anymore.

However, with your superior cultivation talent, you broke through to a Sixth Grade Martial Artist.]

[Day Four: You've already gone a day without drinking blood, you were agitated, and because of inattention at work, you were whipped by Wang Ying, making you even more agitated.]

[Day Five: You've gone two days without drinking blood. That night, you sneaked into the kitchen but didn't find chicken, duck, or the like. Instead, you bumped into Little Mirror. Unable to control yourself, you killed him and drained all his blood.

You experienced the taste of human blood.]

[Day Six: Little Mirror's body was discovered, drained of blood, with a gruesome appearance, sparking rumors of demonic possession in the Weiyang Palace, alarming even the entire Imperial Palace. Eventually, with the Empress's consent, the Western Depot intervened.

That night, losing control again, you killed another eunuch and drained all his blood, only to be seen by a Palace Maid. You went all the way, killing the Palace Maid too and draining her blood, tossing their bodies into a well. You broke through to a Fifth Grade Martial Artist.]

[Day Seven: The bodies of the eunuch and the Palace Maid were found, two more dead, both in the same manner, very clearly the work of the same person, prompting increased search efforts from the Western Depot.]

[Day Eight: You were discovered, erupted and killed two, rushed into the Empress's sleeping chambers, intending to hold her hostage to escape the palace, but unexpectedly, the Empress was also a Fifth Grade expert. In your battle with the Empress, experts from within the palace arrived, and you died.]

[This Immortal Cultivation simulation ends, you can permanently retain one Immortal Cultivation Talent and solidify it into the real world.]

[Immortal Cultivation simulation ends, this simulation lasted eight days, cooldown time: 80 minutes.]

"This talent is indeed very sinister, drinking blood to grow stronger..."

Chen Mo felt a chill in his heart.

He even found himself a little scared.

However, it's a Golden Talent after all.

Better lock it down first.

After locking it down, seeing the cooldown time of 80 minutes.

Chen Mo then took out golden sore medicine to apply to himself.

As expected of the Elixir provided by the Empress, during application, there was no stinging sensation where the powder met the wound.

And after applying the golden sore medicine, in less than a quarter of an hour, Chen Mo felt the pain gradually subsiding.

Even itching and feeling warm.

These are signs of the wound starting to heal.

...

After treating the wound.

Chen Mo began his cultivation.

Directly taking out the Elixir given by Zhao Fujin.

A total of five pills.

Chen Mo poured out one, swallowed it, and began refining it with the Feather Nirvana Heart Scripture.

According to Zhao Fujin,

this Elixir is called Nourishing Essence Pill, meant to speed up the cultivation process.

P.S.: A brief explanation, some people still haven't figured out how many talents can be chosen in a day, the orange cat says again.

During these ten days before the Great Chaos, you can choose an unlimited number of talents each day, even replacing them at will, but you can only choose one talent to extract into reality.

For example, if you chose Spirit Body at first, you found it quite good and locked it down.

Meanwhile, the talent you locked can be brought into the next simulation.

Later, if you draw another Sacred Body, stronger than Spirit Body, you can replace Spirit Body with Sacred Body, thus locking down Sacred Body.

Later still, you draw Divine Body.

And Divine Body is stronger than Sacred Body.

You replace it again, turning it into Divine Body.

Finally, you extracted the Divine Body into reality.

But if you extracted the Sacred Body into reality prematurely, even if Divine Body appears later, you can't replace it.

Alright, explanation complete.

For those who have added this book to their collection, please don't just keep it, follow-up and read it, I beg you.
