I Have a Cultivation Simulator

'The Fourth Tier Body Refining heavenly tribulation...'

In the distance, True Monarch Beiheng watched the rolling tribulation clouds dissipate, inwardly shocked.

He was not surprised that you could survive the Fourth Tier Body Refining heavenly tribulation.

After all, you were also a dharma cultivation true lord with Nascent Soul-level dharma power protecting your body.

The eighteen bolts of heavenly thunder from the Fourth Tier Body Refining heavenly tribulation could hardly pose a fatal threat to you.

What shocked True Monarch Beiheng was that you had not used your Nascent Soul-level dharma power until the very last bolt of heavenly thunder.

In other words, you had forcibly withstood the first seventeen heavenly thunderbolts relying solely on your physical body.

Withstanding a complete set of eighteen heavenly thunderbolts with the physical body marked a pure body cultivator. Since the near-ancient era, pure body cultivators had been incredibly rare.

The vast majority of body cultivators concurrently practiced other skills and inheritances to resist the heavenly thunder.

True Monarch Beiheng had an extraordinary bloodline and possessed a certain treasure body focused on the physical form. Yet, in the past, when he crossed his Fourth Tier Body Refining heavenly tribulation and faced the eighteenth heavenly thunderbolt, he had also resorted to other methods.

He was roughly the same as you.

'Could it be that fellow Daoist Qingyuan also possesses some kind of treasure body or dao body focused on the physical form?'

True Monarch Beiheng speculated inwardly. At the same time, his estimation of your strength rose by another level.

Naturally, True Monarch Beiheng did not know that you possessed one more body cultivation divine ability than normal body cultivators.

Normal, non-pure body cultivators generally only had one body cultivation divine ability before the fourth tier.

After all, they had not fully experienced the baptism of the heavenly thunder. Unable to stimulate more of their physical potential, they could not awaken a second divine ability.

However, compared to other non-pure body cultivators, you had survived one extra Heavenly Thunder Tribulation.

In the fourth simulation, although you failed to break through to the Nascent Soul Stage, the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation you experienced was absolutely real.

While you did not awaken a new body cultivation divine ability at that time, the stimulation of your physical potential had accumulated.

It was not until this simulation, when you crossed the Third-Order Late Stage body cultivation heavenly tribulation, that this accumulation erupted, ushering in a qualitative change and awakening your second body cultivation divine ability.

It was precisely by relying on the body cultivation divine ability, Qi and Blood, that you were able to endure the first dozen or so bolts of heavenly thunder with relative ease, only using your Nascent Soul-level dharma power to protect your body during the final strike.

Possessing two body cultivation divine abilities before reaching the fourth tier was the treatment of a pure body cultivator.

'By relying on his physical body to cross seventeen bolts of heavenly thunder, fellow Daoist Qingyuan is bound to awaken a body cultivation divine ability. His current strength... A body cultivation true lord plus a dharma cultivation true lord...'

True Monarch Beiheng's expression turned solemn.

If you had not withstood the seventeen bolts of heavenly thunder with your physical body, you would not have accumulated enough to awaken a new body cultivation divine ability. Even if your body reached the fourth tier, there would still be a gap between you and a true body cultivation true lord.

Under the rapidly dissipating tribulation clouds, you sat cross-legged. Within your physical body, an overwhelming pressure of vitality, resembling a surging tsunami, enveloped a radius of several hundred miles.

Under this pressure of vitality, numerous disciples of Jiuli Valley felt suffocated, as if they were facing a primeval behemoth.

'My current physical body... has completely stepped into the fourth-tier level. My vitality is more than ten times what it was before the breakthrough... Just by relying on the vitality of my physical body alone, without using dharma power, talents, or divine abilities, I can rival an early Nascent Soul True Monarch...'

You examined yourself, a smile appearing on your face.

Of course, the early Nascent Soul True Monarchs mentioned here referred to the Nascent Soul True Monarchs of the near-ancient era.

If it were the top-tier dharma cultivation true lords of the ancient era, you still could not match them even if they had just advanced.

The end of the ancient era had not only severely impacted body cultivation, but also resulted in the overall weakening of dharma cultivation.

'Body cultivation divine ability...'

You gathered your thoughts and immediately sensed the newly awakened body cultivation divine ability.

The moment you passed the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation, you entered the body cultivation Heart Demon Tribulation.

However, a mere fourth-tier body cultivation Heart Demon Tribulation was not worth mentioning to you.

More than a hundred years ago, you had easily overcome the dharma cultivation Heart Demon Tribulation.

The difficulty of the dharma cultivation Heart Demon Tribulation was a large margin higher than that of the body cultivation Heart Demon Tribulation.

Not to mention that you had already cultivated in the Nascent Soul Stage for over a hundred years, frequently experiencing the 'Lotus' state of mind.

Your state of mind had been continuously improving.

Therefore, it only took you a few breaths to see through the body cultivation Heart Demon Tribulation.

Sinking your mind into every inch of your physical body, you quickly obtained the information regarding your new body cultivation divine ability.

'Body cultivation divine ability—Transformation!'

'Refining the aura of a living being allows one to transform into their appearance and simulate their aura...'

'Refining the essence blood of a living being allows one to transform into their appearance, simulate their aura, and even have a chance to grasp a certain divine ability of theirs...'

Pondering this body cultivation divine ability, you frowned slightly.

The divine ability, Transformation, sounded like an auxiliary technique that did not offer much help in combat power.

It belonged to the category of life-saving and disguise methods.

But as you thought about it carefully, using this divine ability to refine a drop of a living being's essence blood could allow you to transform into their appearance, and even grasp a portion of their divine abilities...

What if the drop of essence blood you refined belonged to a True Spirit immortal beast?

Wouldn't you be able to directly incarnate as a True Spirit immortal beast and grasp its incredible divine abilities?

What kind of existence was a True Spirit immortal beast? They were comparable to true immortals of the Upper Realm. Even if you could only grasp a portion of their divine abilities, it would be a massive improvement for you.

Not to mention, this divine ability was not restricted to refining only a single type of essence blood. As long as you had the capability to acquire the essence blood of multiple True Spirit immortal beasts, you could continuously refine them. When the critical moment arrived, you could directly transform into one.

Of course, in the near-ancient era, True Spirit immortal beasts had long since vanished without a trace. However, while True Spirit immortal beasts couldn't be found, beast kings with heaven-grade bloodlines and descendants of True Spirit immortal beasts still existed.

For instance, deep within the Myriad Beast Mountain Range in the Taiyuan Region, that fourth-tier Eagle King possessed a certain life-saving escape method. Once used, its physical body could cross thousands of miles in an instant. Even a Mid Stage true lord wouldn't be willing to give chase.

If you could refine a drop of that fourth-tier Eagle King's essence blood and transform into the Eagle King, wouldn't your escape speed increase immensely?

If you could obtain the essence blood of a beast king with a heaven-grade bloodline that excelled in frontal assaults, wouldn't you also directly gain its offensive methods?

'What a great divine ability...'

Your eyes lit up. Just by thinking about it slightly, you could come up with dozens of ways to utilize it.

Strictly speaking, the divine ability, Transformation, belonged to the category of all-around divine abilities. It could be used for frontal assaults, defense, escaping, and disguise.

The upper limit of this divine ability depended entirely on the quantity and quality of the essence blood you collected.

'The Blood of the Heavenly Phoenix...'

You suddenly thought of the drop of Blood of the Heavenly Phoenix in the reward list of the Ghost Realm Trial Field.

The Heavenly Phoenix was a peak-tier True Spirit that had disappeared as early as the ancient era. If you obtained that drop of Blood of the Heavenly Phoenix, wouldn't it allow you to grasp a portion of the divine abilities of this peak-tier True Spirit?

'Also, if I choose to transform into a massive beast king whose vitality far exceeds that of the human race, and then rely on the other divine ability, Qi and Blood...'

You were inwardly startled. The divine ability, Transformation, seemed to pair perfectly with the other two divine abilities you had grasped.

Or rather, Transformation was highly compatible with most divine abilities.

Half a month later, you had completely stabilized your fourth-tier body cultivation realm and recovered from the injuries sustained from forcefully withstanding the heavenly thunder. You then walked out of your cave dwelling.

"Congratulations on advancing to Fourth Tier Body Refining, fellow Daoist Qingyuan..."

True Monarch Beiheng came over to congratulate you immediately.

"It was merely a stroke of luck," you said with a smile.

'Luck?'

True Monarch Beiheng was speechless in his heart. 'As if I'd believe you.'

Forcefully withstanding the first seventeen heavenly thunderbolts using nothing but the physical body—how could that be a stroke of luck?

"Since you have advanced to Rank 4 Body Cultivation, fellow Daoist, will you be holding a grand ceremony...?"

Whether it was a body cultivation true lord grand ceremony or a dharma cultivation true lord grand ceremony, there was no rule limiting someone to hosting it only once.

Being able to simultaneously practice both body cultivation and dharma cultivation to the true lord level was extremely rare.

These two inheritance paths were the grandest of all, vast as the open sea. Comprehending just one already required an immense amount of energy; comprehending two?

The reason you were able to cultivate your physical body to the Third-Order Perfected Stage in such a short time was because your physical body was already at the Third-Order Late Stage to begin with.

For other cultivators, even true lords, elevating their physical body from Tier 2 to Tier 3, let alone the Third-Order Perfected Stage, would consume a massive amount of time and energy. If they encountered a bottleneck...

"Let's hold it," you said, nodding slightly.

You still quite liked this method of freely receiving congratulatory gifts.

At the same time, this was also a way to cash in on your 'character.'

Over the years, you had built a vast network of connections using your fourth-tier alchemy attainments. If you held a body cultivation true lord grand ceremony, the lively turnout would definitely far exceed that of your past dharma cultivation true lord grand ceremony.

If an evil cultivator with poor character and cruel methods became a true lord, the factions willing to participate in their grand ceremony definitely wouldn't be numerous.

Even if they came, it would just be to make an obligatory appearance.

Year 223. You were 240 years old.

Your body cultivation true lord grand ceremony was held smoothly.

The factions and cultivators who came to participate encompassed almost the entire Wujian Region and several nearby large regions.

You were not just a Rank 4 Body Cultivation true lord; you were also a dharma cultivation true lord and a fourth-tier alchemy grandmaster.

Even factions that had no relationship with you would come over to show their faces before you upon hearing that you were hosting a body cultivation grand ceremony.

Having no relationship now did not mean they wouldn't have a relationship in the future.

With a fourth-tier alchemy grandmaster around, there was no telling when their own factions might need to ask you for a favor. If they didn't lay a solid foundation now, trying to embrace Buddha's feet at the last moment when they actually needed your help might not be of any use.

Not to mention, you also possessed the strength of a dharma cultivation true lord and the backing of Jiuli Valley.

'Hmm... True Monarch Yinxiao of Corpse Raising Mountain didn't come...'

You glanced at the list of participating factions and did not find the name of Corpse Raising Mountain.

You were completely unsurprised by this. The conflict between you and True Monarch Yinxiao was out in the open.

There was no need for True Monarch Yinxiao to come and humiliate himself.

When you held your dharma cultivation true lord grand ceremony last time, True Monarch Yinxiao dared to come because he had confidence.

At that time, you were nothing more than a newly advanced dharma cultivation true lord, whereas True Monarch Yinxiao was a corpse dao true lord who commanded a fourth-tier corpse puppet.

No matter how one looked at it, True Monarch Yinxiao did not fear you in the slightest.

But now?

Your strength had increased drastically. Even before becoming a body cultivation true lord, you had been able to suppress a fourth-tier corpse puppet in a short time and easily contend against True Monarch Yinxiao.

Now that you concurrently possessed Rank 4 Body Cultivation, your strength had undergone yet another qualitative change. As for True Monarch Yinxiao... having lost his fourth-tier corpse puppet, his strength had dropped by more than just a single tier.

One had risen, the other had fallen.

Naturally, True Monarch Yinxiao did not dare to come.

When you hosted your dharma cultivation true lord grand ceremony, True Monarch Yinxiao had, after all, tried to cause trouble.

A few months later, your body cultivation true lord grand ceremony successfully concluded.

Your harvest from this grand ceremony far exceeded that of your previous dharma cultivation true lord grand ceremony.

'It's a pity that stepping into the fourth tier in the path of alchemy and the path of talisman drawing doesn't have a precedent for hosting grand ceremonies...'

You inwardly felt regret. If you could hold dozens more of these grand ceremonies, just by collecting congratulatory gifts, you would be able to amass enough resources to fund your cultivation all the way to the Late Nascent Soul Stage.

Year 233. You were 250 years old.

You learned that the envoy from the Dazhou Immortal Dynasty had arrived in the Wujian Region and personally visited Wujian Hall.

'An envoy from the Dazhou Immortal Dynasty?'

You pondered inwardly. In the previous simulation, you were merely a Core Formation Stage true person, and moreover, you were overseeing Profound King Island, which was too far from the Wujian Region.

You had only been able to gather superficial intelligence concerning the Wujian Region. As for true, high-end intelligence? You had been powerless.

For example, the Dazhou Immortal Dynasty envoy visiting Wujian Hall this time was a piece of intelligence strictly on the level of true lords. Ordinary rogue cultivators simply had no right to know about it.

'The Dazhou Region is one of the most prosperous large regions within the borders of the Eastern Wilderness, with a confirmed Late Nascent Soul Great Cultivator presiding over it... The Dazhou Immortal Dynasty is also a major overlord-level faction in the Eastern Wilderness...'

Information regarding the Dazhou Immortal Dynasty surfaced in your mind.

As a Nascent Soul True Monarch, your perspective naturally wouldn't be confined to a single region, but rather set on the entire Human Realm.

The Human Realm was composed of an incomparably massive continent and the oceans.

This continent was divided into the Central Continent, Northern Plains, Eastern Wilderness, Western Desert, and Southern Sea.

Whether it was the Wujian Region, the Taiyuan Region, the Jiuyou Region, or the Dazhou Region, they were all located within the borders of the Eastern Wilderness.

The Dazhou Immortal Dynasty of the Dazhou Region was one of the major overlords of the Eastern Wilderness, overlooking the entire domain.

The Eastern Wilderness was vast and boundless, dotted with numerous large regions and Nascent Soul-level factions.

You tried to lightly perform Divination to discern the intentions of the Dazhou Immortal Dynasty, but found the hexagram image to be hazy and indistinct, as if encountering some kind of obstruction. The Divination process was arduous and obscure.

You immediately stopped the Divination.

You were very certain that a Divination Grandmaster definitely existed within the Dazhou Immortal Dynasty. Forcing the Divination would undoubtedly incur a backlash and sap your lifespan.

'This is Wujian Hall's business. I just need to continue cultivating...'

You stopped overthinking the matter and immediately entered secluded cultivation.

Year 243. You were 260 years old.

Inside your cave dwelling, your eyes were slightly closed as the Mountain and Sea dharma power surged endlessly within your body.

Right at this moment, you opened your eyes, and your mind immediately sank into your dantian.

Within your dantian, fifty dharma talismans emitting a terrifying spiritual pressure circled about.

Beside your Mountain and Sea Nascent Soul, that piece of Fourth Tier High Grade Soul-Nourishing Jade began to crumble inch by inch.

Immediately after, a Nascent Soul spirit body a size smaller suddenly drilled out and met the gaze of your main Nascent Soul.
