85: Simulated open world, cultivation world

[ Start searching for a simulation world, start inputting Host's True Spirit, start drawing Traits. Host, please choose one from the following three Traits. ]

Clear Heart and Soul (Blue): Purity of mind and spirit, capable of quickly dispelling negative emotions, resisting Heart Demon corruption, and significantly increasing focus during Cultivation.

Five Elements Immortal Spiritual Root (Purple): An Innate Perfection top-tier Spiritual Root Physique; the Physical Body and Meridians are naturally adapted to the Five Elements Spiritual Qi, possessing the potential for Immortal Ascension.

Heart's Desire (Purple): The heart prevails over material things, Transcending Mortality and Entering Sainthood, making wishes come true; capable of easily achieving one's desired goals, possessing the qualifications to Cultivate the Grand Dao of the Mind.

"It seems the Simulator's reward is taking effect. There are actually two Purple Traits this time, and... Five Elements Immortal Spiritual Root? Could the world being simulated this time be a cultivation world?"

However, even knowing it was a cultivation world, Lin Yu did not choose the "Five Elements Immortal Spiritual Root" Trait, but instead chose the "Heart's Desire" Trait.

Because the purple of "Heart's Desire" was deeper than that of "Five Elements Immortal Spiritual Root," which meant that as a Purple Trait, "Heart's Desire" was stronger than "Five Elements Immortal Spiritual Root."

Furthermore, Lin Yu felt that a Physique Trait like "Five Elements Immortal Spiritual Root" might have already appeared in the cultivation world. He didn't think that just by relying on his memories from Earth and a single Spiritual Root, he would be able to clear the game.

But "Heart's Desire" was different; this Trait had a hint of the power of 'I think therefore I am'. Compared to a Spiritual Root, this Trait seemed more like a cheat.

[ Host selection complete, simulation starting. ]

[ Sixteen years old, you wake up with a start on an unfamiliar bed, looking around at the antique wooden furniture, the Bagua mirror hanging on the wall, and the talisman paper placed on the desk. ]

[ These never-before-seen furnishings make you instantly sober. As memories flood in like a tide, you realize you have undergone Transmigration. ]

[ According to the original body's memories, you discover that this world is actually a cultivation world, and the original body is also a descendant of a cultivator. ]

[ You are currently in a massive city called Qingyun Immortal City, which was established by the cultivation Sect, Azure Cloud Sect. ]

[ This Immortal City is equivalent to the market towns in cultivation novels, but far larger, and fighting is prohibited within the city. ]

[ The original body's parents were Loose Cultivators living in Qingyun Immortal City, but they passed away three years ago while exploring some ruins. ]

[ Since then, the original body has lived alone in a small courtyard in the west of the city, scraping by on the meager savings left by parents, waiting for an opportunity to join the Azure Cloud Sect. This year happens to be the time when the Azure Cloud Sect recruits Disciples once every ten years. ]

[ The cultivation Realms in this world also seem quite classic to you, from low to high: Qi Refining, Dao Foundation, Purple Mansion, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Soul Transformation, Void Refining, Dao Integration, Undergoing Tribulation. ]

[ According to rumors in Qingyun Immortal City, the Old Ancestor of the Azure Cloud Sect is a cultivator in the Golden Core Realm. ]

[ Soon, the day arrives for the Azure Cloud Sect to recruit Disciples. As the morning light barely reveals itself, the entire Immortal City is already buzzing. You follow the flow of people toward the central plaza of Qingyun Immortal City; at this moment, there are tens of thousands of people on the plaza. ]

[ You see several figures suspended above the vast ground paved with white marble. Their clothes flutter, and they are surrounded by lingering spiritual light; they are the Azure Cloud Sect Immortal Masters who have come to preside over the ceremony. ]

[ Next is the classic Spiritual Root testing phase. You gently place your hand on the crystal-clear Spiritual Root testing crystal, and in an instant, five-colored rays of light burst forth from within. ]

[ "Medium Grade Five Elements Spiritual Root, may enter as an Outer Sect Disciple." Following this announcement, you are led into the line of Outer Sect Disciples. ]

[ Seeing that you actually have a Five Elements Spiritual Root, you sigh, wondering if this is the standard equipment for a Transmigrator. ]

[ From the original body's memories, you also know the classification of Spiritual Roots. ]

[ In this world, the level of talent is judged based on the purity of the Spiritual Root. ]

[ All Spiritual Roots are strictly divided into six Ranks based on purity: Low Grade, Medium Grade, High Grade, Top Grade, Heavenly Grade, and Immortal Grade. ]

[ There is an insurmountable chasm between each Rank. The higher the Rank of the Spiritual Root, the fewer the Impurities it contains, the faster it absorbs Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi during Cultivation, and the more pure the spiritual power converted. ]

[ This pure spiritual power not only allows a Cultivator to achieve twice the result with half the effort when breaking through a Bottleneck, but also doubles the power of the Spells cast. ]

[ Furthermore, in this world, when the Spiritual Root Rank is the same, single-attribute Spiritual Roots cannot compare to multi-attribute Spiritual Roots. ]

[ For example, compared to a Medium Grade single-attribute Spiritual Root, the two have roughly the same Cultivation speed. ]

[ However, the energy cultivated by a Five Elements Spiritual Root can be freely converted among the Five Elements attributes, and it can also enable the Fusion of multiple attributes to unleash stronger attacks. With such various advantages, how can a single Spiritual Root compare to a multi-Spiritual Root? ]
