[Simulation Summary: Your life was filled with hardship and struggle, but your perseverance was awe-inspiring. You never became a powerful figure, your cultivation stopping at the Human Immortal realm, but your will continues to inspire future generations, passing the torch.]
[The human race will remember your heroic deeds for generations. They believe you always watch over them from above, like a moon overlooking the mortal world.]
[Final Evaluation of Simulation No. 03: S]
[Rewards generating... beep... beep...]
[Please select four out of the following five rewards, which will be issued immediately upon selection.]
[1. The peak realm achieved during the simulation]
[2. All martial techniques learned during the simulation]
[3. Martial Path · Infinite Furnace]
[4. Enhanced · Surging Vital Qi]
[5. A piece of paper that will never get dirty]
"An S-grade evaluation, huh..."
"It was somewhat expected. After all, compared to the last magic world simulation, my growth this time wasn't significant."
"I wonder what conditions must be met to achieve an S+ rating."
XuXi pondered.
It couldn't be as simple as him becoming the ultimate being, right?
If that were the case, he might as well give up now...
With that thought, Xu Xi examined the reward options, reviewing the relevant descriptions provided by the simulation.
Option one was straightforward—it granted the strength Xu Xi had at the end of the simulation, precisely the complete Human Immortal realm, without any negative status effects.
Option two, the martial techniques, was equally straightforward.
Xu Xi considered this option the least useful.
In the martial world, the number of martial techniques he had mastered was quite limited.
He had relied on techniques frequently during the initial body refining stage to boost his combat power.
But by the time he reached the Innate realm,
especially during his decisive battle with the Emperor of Great Qian,
Xu Xi's attacks had already become sleek and unadorned—each movement and strike carried his martial principles, transcending ordinary techniques.
"Hmm, let's keep looking. If the other options are fine, I’ll exclude the martial techniques this time."
Xu Xi continued reviewing.
Option three, Infinite Furnace, was a characteristic of his Vital Qi Heaven transformed by the system, enhanced to manifest even more profound and mysterious abilities.
It could consume all phenomena and simulate all things.
Option four was an enhanced version of the Surging Vital Qi trait.
The normal Surging Vital Qi was just a foundational trait, virtually useless for Xu Xi at the Human Immortal level.
Now, through the system's upgrading, it had reached golden quality.
It demonstrated incredible power—even for Xu Xi at the Human Immortal level, it provided substantial enhancements, making his inner heaven dense and solid, far surpassing his peers.
Finally, option five.
This was the paper flower Xu Xi had once folded for Wu Yingxue, only to be stained with blood and ruined.
"This is... quite something."
"How should I put it—the answer is obvious."
Xu Xi chuckled lightly, quickly selecting his rewards: options one, three, four, and five.
Besides martial techniques, all options were chosen.
The martial techniques weren’t completely useless.
But compared to the other options, their value was too low to be worth choosing.
"I've labored for my cultivation, driven entirely by my own efforts and perseverance. Simulation, assist me!"
[Ding. Rewards selected. Initiating distribution...]
As Xu Xi confirmed his choices, the simulation interface flashed rapidly. The text of the five rewards disappeared, replaced by immediate changes to Xu Xi's body.
Through Vital Qi training, primal qi, and Human Immortal's inner world, three great realms, all were instantaneously broken through!
Booming Vital Qi burst forth from Xu Xi's body, forming a faint red halo that bloomed in his palm.
That Vital Qi halo was fierce and domineering.
It wasn't wounded blood or cowardly blood but the full fervor of a martial artist.
Is it because of my divine transformation cultivation and Sanctuary Magus realms?
"This time, the integration of the Human Immortal realm was much smoother. The enhancements from Infinite Furnace and Surging Vital Qi are indeed quite apparent."
"If I were to face the Emperor of Great Qian again."
"I, in reality, could easily kill him with just my martial arts cultivation."
Xu Xi mused.
Feeling his surging Vital Qi flow through his body, following his meridians to circulate and complete a qi cycle, ultimately returning to the inner realm in his dantian.
Path of Ascension—Living forever through the control of qi.
Magic—Soaring mental power.
Martial Path—Transcending the physical body.
Vital substance, qi, and spirit united, three paths advancing together, strength skyrocketing.
Overall, Xu Xi was very satisfied. Though it felt like a fusion of various disciplines, the increase in power was undeniable.
"Finally, there's this..."
In the living room of the house, Xu Xi opened his palm, revealing a paper flower with white and brown hues resting quietly in his hand.
It had been a gift from Xu Xi to a young maiden.
But it had been accidentally stained with blood.
Now, in its perfect, pristine state, it returned to Xu Xi.
"Perhaps someday, I'll have the opportunity to give it again."
Regarding the princess, regarding Wu Yingxue.
Xu Xi didn't care much about the girl achieving the ultimate realm,
He simply felt that the princess, who had become mighty enough to be supreme, should be able to protect herself and everyone striving to survive.
Thinking of the people leaving the mountains living, Xu Xi felt very happy.
That was all.
Xu Xi decided to temporarily place the paper flower in his display case. If a chance to meet again arose in the future, he would present the flower once more.
He remembered clearly.
The princess had adored the paper flower immensely.
It might deeply sadden her if the flower were missing.
"Yes, that's decided then," Xu Xi nodded slightly, then stood up, preparing to head toward his bedroom.
At that moment, a figure approached.
Silvery-gray hair, expressionless, dressed in a fitting black and white long dress.
It was the witch bringing Xu Xi hot tea.
"Master, what’s the matter?"
Krisha's voice was calm, her eyes reflecting only Xu Xi bathed in sunlight, with subdued luster spread within.
Somehow, being watched by such a witch.
Xu Xi felt a momentary unease.
But he was upright and had never done anything improper.
"Nothing, just going back to the room," Xu Xi responded, stepping toward the room, with Krisha following closely behind him.
Asked about the reasons, Krisha simply responded:
"I felt Master seemed tired..."
Her intuition was just as sharp as ever.
She didn't know about Xu Xi's simulation, but she sensed that Xu Xi was mentally fatigued after completing it.
Thus, the considerate witch prepared the tea.
To refresh him.
"Thanks, Krisha," Xu Xi reached out, gently stroking Krisha's hair, then lifted the teapot, blew lightly to let it cool slightly, slowly sipping it.
Continuing to be watched by the witch in the light of the television, by Krisha's wayward glance shyly trembling into light patterns.
Xu Xi walked into the bedroom.
Retrieved a key, inserted it into the lock, gave a turn to unfasten the glass door of the display cabinet.
Temporarily put down the flawless white pigeon folded by himself—— It was placed in the third grid now.
So far, apart from the candy box and the Charmander rowlin fold paper, the display cabinet that played again vividly against dazzling ribbons have given birth to another newcomer: lay silently entranced into the sort or indifferent veins by headshot impurities reflection inward textures.
