Chapter 71: It's finally time for me to show off
"Boom!" At that moment, a thunderclap resounded.
You were startled, thinking it was Heavenly Thunder descending.
It wasn't until you saw the torrential rain following the thunder that you breathed a sigh of relief.
"So it was just rain!"
However, the thunder also extinguished the bit of bravado that had just risen in your heart.
You kept reminding yourself: The enemy is too powerful. Stay low, stay low, you must be cautious.
In the fifth year, you arrived at Sunset Mountain.
After searching for a while, you finally found the Spirit Liquid Pool!
You immediately began your cultivation there.
In the sixth year, thanks to the effects of the Pseudo Spirit Liquid, you broke through from the second level of Nascent Soul to the third level within a year.Three years passed in the blink of an eye.
In the ninth year, your cultivation level had reached the sixth level of Nascent Soul.
By this time, the Pseudo Spirit Liquid in the Spirit Liquid Pool had been completely consumed by you.
Looking at the dried-up pool, you felt a bit unsatisfied.
The feeling of rapid improvement was truly exhilarating.
"Sigh," you sighed and headed towards Green Hills City.
This time, you didn't plan to go to the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords.
Although in the last simulation, you accidentally stumbled out of the Southern Regions after going mad, you weren't sure if you could replicate that situation; it was too random.
Of course, you could gamble on the talent of being a Child of Fortune.
But you felt that your Child of Fortune talent seemed fake, only responsible for resources, with no significant change in luck in other aspects.
In the eleventh year, you returned to Green Hills City.
This time, you didn't hide outside but returned to the Jiang Family.
Your father, Jiang Fushan, was overjoyed to see you return safely after so many years.
To celebrate, all the Jiang Clan Firm's businesses in Green Hills City held massive sales.
Soon, the news of your return spread throughout Green Hills City!
For a time, the Jiang Family was filled with guests, and many of your old friends came to visit you.
Among them, your good friend from the pleasure house, Liang Zhilei, even booked the entire Spring Blossom Pavilion for you.
Notably, the courtesan of Spring Blossom Pavilion was Qiu Zhixuan.
After your return, she also came to visit you alone.
During your conversation, you clearly sensed her using Divine Sense to probe you.
You understood this; after all, you had disappeared for over a decade and suddenly reappeared. The Immortal Slaves of the Immortal Arrival Sect would naturally be cautious.
Unfortunately for her, you had a Breath Concealing Talisman, so no matter how she looked at you, you appeared as a mere mortal.
Of course, even without the Breath Concealing Talisman, with your current cultivation level, Qiu Zhixuan, who was only at the Foundation Establishment stage, couldn't possibly see through you!
This was one of the reasons you dared to return openly to the Jiang Family in this simulation.
Shortly after your return, the Jiang Clan Firm received a large business deal requiring your father, Jiang Fushan, to travel to the Liang Kingdom.
Upon hearing this, you immediately found your father and told him you wanted to accompany him!
Your father, Jiang Fushan, did not refuse.
After all, you had managed to survive on your own for decades. This time, accompanying him on a business trip, though long, wouldn't worry him too much.
In the twelfth year, after concluding the business in the Liang Kingdom, your Jiang Clan Firm's convoy was passing through Yuyang Mountain when the ground suddenly shook.
You knew this meant an inheritance was about to appear.
With a wave of your hand, you knocked out everyone except your father, ensuring they all slept peacefully, then protected them with spiritual energy.
When they woke up, they would probably think they just had a good nap!
Your father, Jiang Fushan, watched everything you did with some confusion.
But you just smiled and roughly explained it to him.
However, your father didn't understand a word about cultivation.
Even though he didn't understand, he still nodded without any blame.
Actually, even without an explanation, given your father Jiang Fushan's doting nature, he wouldn't have blamed you for anything.
Soon, a crack appeared in the ground, and the inheritance emerged.
After moving the unconscious people to a safe place, you leaped down with your father into the inheritance hall.
Upon your arrival, the inheritance light orb moved back and forth, sometimes appearing before you, sometimes before your father.
It seemed to be making a choice!
In the end, you gave your father Jiang Fushan a push towards the light orb.
Seeing this, the inheritance smoothly merged into your father Jiang Fushan's body.
You had considered taking the inheritance yourself.
But then you thought it would be better to steadily improve; this time, your goal was to break through a major realm.
Since you were cultivating the Divine Dao, you needed to advance both Martial Dao and Immortal Dao simultaneously to achieve perfection and break through the major realm.
You felt you needed to find Spine Mountain and use the Heavenly Thunder beneath it to cultivate Martial Dao.
If you took the inheritance, you weren't sure if you could find Spine Mountain.
So, to be safe, you gave up the inheritance. As long as your father obtained it, he would connect with the cultivators of Spine Mountain.
You could then take the opportunity to go to Spine Mountain with him!
As for the inheritance, you left it for your future self to explore.
After confirming your father had received the inheritance, you woke up the knocked-out members of the Jiang Clan convoy and sent them on their way.
After everything was done, you returned to the inheritance hall, staying by your father's side to protect him.
Three days later, a shadowy figure named Yang Zuo appeared.
He arrogantly shouted, "You are not worthy of receiving the Immortal Dao inheritance!"
Looking at his ninth-level Core Formation cultivation and comparing it to your sixth-level Nascent Soul cultivation, you grinned.
You felt it was finally your moment to show off!
You had waited for this day for a long time.
You stepped forward, stood before Yang Zuo, and muttered, "Trash," before slapping him on the head.
Just as you were about to continue showing off, Yang Zuo's head exploded, splattering you with blood, ruining your luxurious clothes!
"Just like that?"
You couldn't believe Yang Zuo was so weak, feeling a bit displeased, you cursed, "Damn, I wasn't even serious!"
After a brief moment of cursing, you realized that showing off wasn't as satisfying as you thought.
Finally, you muttered, "Forget it," feeling that perhaps you were more suited to staying low; showing off wasn't your forte!
