“……”
In a dimly lit room, sunlight filtered through the thick velvet curtain gaps, forming patches of light and shadow that fell on the table, the chairs, and Xu Xi.
Xu Xi gently closed the book.
Patiently waiting for the simulator to finish loading.
Soon—
The loading progress reached 99.99% and then jumped to 100% with a completion notification sound.
Xu Xi breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, this simulator didn't behave like some shopping app that would suddenly pop up with a 99.9900001% at the last moment.
“That said, I never expected someone as ordinary as me to get a cheat…”
Muttering to himself.
The young man with a clean and neat appearance sat in a wheelchair, looking down at the book in his hand, reminiscing about the past, and couldn't help but let out a sigh.
Five years ago.
The once peaceful and ordinary Earth.
Mysteriously experienced numerous upheavals.
Some called it the Spiritual Energy Revival, others called it the Return of Mythology, and some called it the New Era of Human Awakening.
In short, supernatural powers suddenly appeared in the world. Whether it was the Immortal Cultivation System of the East or the Magic System of the West, the once fictional existences had truly manifested in the real world.
As a result, the real world was hit with extreme turbulence.
Many people died in the supernatural turmoil.
Xu Xi was a bit luckier and managed to escape the death trap, but during the subsequent hospital check-up, he had to accept the fact that he would be confined to a wheelchair for life.
But now, after five years of wheelchair life, it seemed like it could finally come to an end?
Xu Xi chuckled.
He summoned the fully loaded simulator panel in his mind.
“Is it a conspiracy, or a trap?”
“This mysteriously appearing cheat, no matter how you look at it, seems suspicious. But I don't really have a choice, do I?”
In this new era of chaos where supernatural battles could erupt at any moment.
With Xu Xi already crippled in both legs.
If he had just one unlucky moment.
He would become one of the nameless victims featured on the evening news.
So, to avoid such a future, whether it's a demon or a devil, after obtaining the simulator, Xu Xi had already prepared himself to dance with it.
“Come on, simulator, let me see what you've got!”
【Dingdong~~~】
【Congratulations, host, for successfully activating the Wonderful Life Transmigration Simulator. This simulator will fully assist the host in experiencing various transmigration lives】
【After the simulation starts, the host's consciousness will be projected into the simulated world】
【Upon the end of each simulation, rewards will be issued based on the host's simulated life achievements】
【Current available simulation times: 1】
“So, what's the cost?”
Facing the simulator screen that only he could see.
Xu Xi asked cautiously.
The simulator did not answer. The words【Start Simulation】in the middle of the screen flickered slightly, as if saying—
“Just tell me if you want it or not!”
After a moment of silence, Xu Xi obediently pressed the button. Why not? This was his only hope to get out of his predicament.
【Simulation starting…】
【Worldline being deduced…】
【Locked onto a transmigration world, analysis indicates a cultivation-based world】
【Generating traits, traits generated, please select three traits as your character talents for the initial simulation】
【Trait ranks are: White, Green, Blue, Purple, Gold, Red】
Wealthy Background (Green): You are born into a well-off family, with good fortune from birth. No matter the circumstances, you will always live more comfortably than the average person.
Brute Strength (White): Your strength is a bit above average, that's all.
Heavenly Spirit Root (Gold): You are born with exceptional spiritual roots. Even in a top-tier Immortal Cultivation sect, you would be the envy of many.
Premonition (Purple): You occasionally have sharp instincts about certain things.
Great Love (Blue): You have a heart full of love and cannot bear to see others suffer. Whenever you see someone in pain, you choose to physically save them.
Cultivation Arts (Blue): Alchemy, Artifact Crafting, Formation Arrangement, and Talisman Creation are the basic survival skills in the cultivation world, and you are quite proficient in them.
Xu Xi quickly browsed through the six traits.
He soon made his decision, selecting Heavenly Spirit Root (Gold), Premonition (Purple), and Cultivation Arts (Blue).
This was the best combination he could come up with after weighing the pros and cons.
【Trait selection complete, start simulation?】
“Yes.”
As Xu Xi steeled himself, a blinding white light suddenly burst before his eyes. His consciousness detached and rose, floating and drifting, rushing towards an unknown and mysterious boundary.
【Simulation No. 01 officially begins】
【The weather is sunny and clear. While staying at home, you suddenly feel like going out for a stroll】
【You laboriously maneuver your wheelchair to leave the familiar home, but as soon as you reach the street, you hit the jackpot—you are hit by a Daewoo heavy truck】
【But you surprisingly find yourself not dead, but transmigrated to a new world. Moreover, you have returned to the age of 7, and your crippled legs are fully restored】
【You are overjoyed, feeling it's the reward for reading ten years of authentic web novels】
【You are full of confidence, ready to make a big splash in this cultivation world. But before you can even investigate your surroundings, a sudden and devastating famine mercilessly engulfs you】
Powerless.
Suffocating.
Despair.
Dry fields are littered with the corpses of the starved.
Under the scorching sun, a sea of refugees slowly advances, their eyes hollow, staring blankly ahead, almost losing their human thoughts and reason.
The footprints left by those in front are instantly covered by those behind.
Xu Xi is one of them.
He didn't expect that the so-called simulation would be so real.
In his stomach, it feels like a fire is raging, burning through the stomach lining, spreading the sense of helplessness throughout his body.
“Child, have some water.”
Seeing that Xu Xi is still young, a woman couldn't bear it and handed over a gourd filled with water.
Water can't quench hunger.
But in this situation where there is no food at all, it can at least provide some sense of fullness and alleviate the pain of hunger.
“Aunt Wang, thank you,” Xu Xi politely thanked, then drank the water in big gulps.
The cool water moistened his cracked lips, and without lingering in his mouth, it was directly swallowed into his stomach, temporarily soothing his grumbling belly.
He returned the gourd to Aunt Wang.
Xu Xi continued to move forward.
“I heard that not far ahead, there is a mortal city. There should be a porridge stall there. I need to pick up the pace,” Xu Xi thought to himself, using a wooden stick to support his walk.
He didn't want to waste this precious first simulation due to starvation.
After another half an hour.
Xu Xi suddenly stopped.
Not because he had reached his destination, but because he heard a faint, intermittent sound of a baby crying.
uld barely embark on the path to immortality. Just as he was on the verge of death, his golden finger awakened. No matter whether it was poison, drained blood and vital energy, diminished lifespan, or any other physical debuff caused by paying a price—once midnight passed, everything would be refreshed. From then on, whenever someone asked what kind of person Chu Ran was, the answer was simple: Forbidden arts that other cultivators dared not learn? Chu Ran would learn them. Prices that even demonic cultivators dared not pay? Chu Ran would pay them. Lifespan that even righteous cultivators dared not burn? Chu Ran would burn it. All the blood essence in his body? Take it. Want both his hands and feet? He would cut them off and send them to you. You say he’s finished? He wasn’t built to sit idle. You think he’s gone mad? No—he was simply waiting for midnight. From that day onward, Chu Ran would respect neither Heaven nor Earth, bow to neither gods nor ghosts. He had only one wish: For midnight to arrive a little sooner.
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
ts me of treason?" "Correct. The host must return to the capital and gradually build up influence." "Wait—I have half a million soldiers, and you want me to go back to the capital to 'build influence'?" "Host, you are currently the Northern Garrison General, loyal to the Great Xia Dynasty." "Of course I am loyal to Great Xia! Absolutely loyal!" "But you keep referring to yourself as 'We'..." "Never mind the details! Summon all the regional commanders and military officers! We suspect treacherous officials are manipulating the court! They shall march with Us to the capital and purge the corrupt!" "......"
ions, keeping it grounded and realistic】 After quitting his job, office worker Su Yang accidentally binds with the "Enjoy Life System." As the name suggests, simply by indulging in life's pleasures, he can earn random rewards from the system—no need to spend money on beautiful women or grovel before anyone. Just enjoy, and the money follows, making it all about effortless fun. The system comes with a scanning feature, allowing him to establish a favorability bond with women rated 85 points or above. Every 20-point increase in favorability unlocks additional rewards. After suffering through over twenty years of hardship, Su Yang trembles with excitement, his dull eyes suddenly gleaming with newfound hope. "Enjoy life? How hard could that be?"
