Chapter 75: Talent: Absolute Rationality
Chapter 75: Talent: Absolute Rationality
Finally, Jiang Yifeng sighed and muttered to himself, "Forget it, I still don't understand enough now. I'll figure it out eventually!"
Then he turned his attention to the rewards from this simulation.
The rewards this time were quite good, just two items, so there was no need to agonize over the selection.
In fact, this was part of his pre-simulation plan, intentionally designed to achieve this outcome.
He believed that focusing on one thing during the simulation would be more cost-effective.
If he practiced too many things during the simulation, the reward options would increase, but they wouldn't be useful if he couldn't bring them out. It's better to specialize in one area.
This way, he could make better use of the time in the simulation.
Of course, Jiang Yifeng also understood that upgrading the simulator brought additional benefits.
Otherwise, separating Immortal Dao and Martial Dao each time would take up two options.
Moreover, his Divine Dao cultivation required simultaneous breakthroughs in both Immortal and Martial Dao, and he had to exchange them at the same time for a major realm upgrade.So, this time, he either couldn't choose a talent, or his cultivation would be stuck at the Nascent Soul Realm and True Core Realm!
Jiang Yifeng felt fortunate to have discovered the issue with upgrading the simulator in time.
Otherwise, he wouldn't know how much slower his progress would be.
Without further thought, Jiang Yifeng silently chanted, "Exchange all!"
[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining the Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root (Talent), deducting 10 million energy points, remaining energy points: 1.9 billion...]
[Ding, Divine Dao cultivation extracted successfully, deducting 300 million energy points, remaining energy points: 1.6 billion...]
As the electronic voice fell silent, Jiang Yifeng could feel his strength continuously rising.
A few seconds later, the enhancement was complete.
The instant boost gave Jiang Yifeng a momentary illusion of being terrifyingly powerful.
Fortunately, the text from the simulation was still deeply imprinted in his mind, quickly reminding him that he was still just a novice.
With everything settled, Jiang Yifeng opened his personal panel.
[Host: Jiang Yifeng]
[Talents: Eye of Insight, Random Enlightenment, Formation Dao Genius, Yimu Divine Body, Child of Fortune, Heaven Rewards Diligence, Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root]
[Divine Dao Cultivation: Spirit Transformation Realm Level 3 (Immortal Dao), Unity Realm Level 1 (Martial Dao)]
[Secondary Profession: Seventh-grade Formation Master (Eighth-grade Theory)]
[Cultivation Techniques: Heavenly Profound Art (Immortal Dao), War God Art (Martial Dao)]
[Practiced Techniques: Wind Chasing Art (Mastered), Silent Destruction Fist (Minor Achievement)]
[Laws and Mysteries: True Meaning of the Killing Dao (Beginner)]
[Possessions: Spirit Stones (pieces), War God Art, Heavenly Profound Art, Wind Chasing Art, Breath Concealing Talisman, Teleportation Jade Plate]
Looking at the talents in his personal attribute panel, Jiang Yifeng softly called out, "Simulator, place Child of Fortune into the talent pool!"
[Ding, successfully extracted the host's talent Child of Fortune, stored in the talent pool.]
Hearing the simulator's prompt, Jiang Yifeng breathed a sigh of relief.
He had impulsively chosen the Child of Fortune talent back then.
It had caused him a lot of trouble in reality, constantly encountering dropped spirit stones!
It wasn't that he disliked it, but with his simulation experience, he knew that once he picked up a spirit stone, the person who dropped it would definitely appear, leading to a fight.
This would expose his identity as a cultivator, making it hard to stay hidden in Green Hills City.
The talent was good, but it didn't suit his real-life situation.
It was better to use it during simulations.
With everything done, Jiang Yifeng called his butler, Jiang Dafu, to continue collecting various ores, gold, and silver.
Now, he only had over 1.6 billion energy points left, which didn't seem like enough.
After giving his instructions, Jiang Yifeng leisurely headed towards the Spring Blossom Pavilion.
This time, he finally didn't find any silver notes or spirit stones on the road.
This greatly boosted Jiang Yifeng's sense of security.
Days spent listening to music in the pleasure house always passed quickly.
Seven days flew by, and it was time for the simulation count to refresh.
Jiang Yifeng waited in his room early.
In the past few days, butler Jiang Dafu hadn't collected many ores.
So Jiang Yifeng wasn't in a hurry to exchange them.
At this moment, he still had over 1.6 billion energy points.
While waiting for the simulation count to refresh, Jiang Yifeng made a rough plan for this simulation.
"Start simulation!"
As soon as the simulation count refreshed, Jiang Yifeng silently chanted.
[Simulation count consumed: 1, remaining count: 0]
[Drawing Purple Talent consumes 1 million energy points, drawing Orange Talent with a chance consumes 10 million energy points, please choose!]
"Choose the chance to draw Orange Talent."
[Ding, 10 million energy points deducted, talent being randomly drawn, remaining energy points: 1.5 billion...]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining Purple Talent: Heart of Rationality.]
[Heart of Rationality]: You can maintain absolute rationality in any situation.
(Note: Absolute rationality will make you only weigh pros and cons, appearing unfeeling and even annoying!)
Jiang Yifeng's first impression of this talent was not good.
This talent sounded like it would turn him into a cold, emotionless machine.
But on second thought, if he only used it in simulations, it might have a different effect.
After all, absolute rationality was something he didn't possess.
But no matter what, even if he got this talent, it could only be stored in the talent pool and definitely couldn't be used in reality.
While Jiang Yifeng was still lost in thought, the simulator's voice sounded.
[Ding: Does the host want to choose a talent from the talent pool?]
[Talents in the pool: Child of Fortune, Thunder-Fire True Spiritual Root.]
"Choose Child of Fortune!"
Without hesitation, Jiang Yifeng made his choice.
[Ding, talent Child of Fortune obtained.]
[22nd simulation begins.]
[With the Heart of Rationality, you quickly realize you are in a simulation.]
[You try to open the simulator within the simulation to create a nested simulation, but you are destined to fail. In the simulation, you do not have this simulator!]
[Day 1, you go to the Spring Blossom Pavilion to listen to music and take the opportunity to connect with the Immortal Slave, Qiu Zhixuan.]
[Day 2, you date Qiu Zhixuan again, subtly expressing your fondness for her.]
...
[Day 10, you feel that Qiu Zhixuan doesn't dislike you, so you seize the moment to confess your feelings.]
[Unsurprisingly, you are rejected.]
[But you are not discouraged.]
[In the following days, you use various modern flirting techniques on Qiu Zhixuan.]
[Three years pass in the blink of an eye.]
[You finally succeed in breaking down Qiu Zhixuan's defenses.]
[In the fourth year, you and Qiu Zhixuan start living a shameless life together.]
[In the fifth year, you work hard, hoping to have a child with Qiu Zhixuan.]
[You suddenly feel that your past self was so foolish. If you had chosen the Perfect Aim talent back then, you wouldn't have to work so hard every day now.]
[In the seventh year, Qiu Zhixuan shyly tells you that she is pregnant with your baby.]
[You show a joyful smile.]
[Qiu Zhixuan looks at you, thinking that this smile is more beautiful than any smile you've ever given her before.]
[She doesn't know that your previous smiles were all fake, just to get her and use her.]
[But this time, you genuinely smiled.]
[You feel that you are one step closer to your plan.]
