[Ding, the Life Simulator has finished activating.] [You currently have one simulation attempt. Would you like to begin a life simulation?]

Just as Xiao Ming had been envying those cheat-wielding transmigrators, a voice suddenly rang out in his mind.

Holy shit, holy shit—ask and you shall receive.

Four years... a Golden Finger... He finally had a Golden Finger.

After getting excited for a while, Xiao Ming calmed himself and silently recited, "Not yet."

He was still at the Xiao Family's Magic Stone Tablet testing grounds, so it was not a suitable place to study his cheat.

Glancing at the crowd still waiting to be tested, Xiao Ming turned and headed for the Xiao Family's Back Mountain. There were quite a few orphans like him where he lived, so that was not suitable for studying it either. The Back Mountain was usually deserted, making it a good place.

After arriving at the Back Mountain, Xiao Ming found a secluded spot and sat down. He could not wait to question it in his mind.

"Um, Life Simulator, right? Explain how you work."

Xiao Ming did not receive the rigid, formulaic reply he had imagined.

Instead, an enormous amount of information flooded into his mind like an instruction manual.

In an instant, Xiao Ming understood what this Life Simulator did.

The Life Simulator was very simple to use.

Every seven days, he could obtain one chance to simulate a life. This chance could be saved for seven days; if it was not used before the simulator refreshed, it would be overwritten.

When simulating a life, the simulation would begin from the day it was activated, in the world where he was located.

Once the simulated him died, or ten full years had passed, the simulation would end.

Every life simulated by the Life Simulator would appear in his mind in textual form. After the simulation ended, the Life Simulator would randomly select three items that had appeared in the text for him to choose from.

The Life Simulator could draw anything, including Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, Powerful Talent, cultivation methods and martial skills, Weapon Treasure, and even Life Insights.

Other than True Cultivation Level, which could not be drawn, he could choose anything else as long as it was drawn.

This function was undeniably powerful. Although it could not compare to those systems that obliterated heaven and earth from the start or dealt 999 damage with one slash, Xiao Ming was already satisfied. After all, having a cheat was enough to make one Secretly Happy.

"Cough cough, um, Mr. Simulator, do you have a Beginner Gift Pack?"

Imitating the protagonists of novels he had read before, Xiao Ming asked thick-skinnedly.

[No.] [Detected that the host has one opportunity for a life simulation. Would you like to begin a life simulation?]

"No is fine. Start the life simulation."

[Ding, Simulation Start--] [Day One: The Xiao Family conducted a Dou Qi Cultivation test. You Witnessed Xiao Yan, the Third Young Master of the Xiao Family and a fellow transmigrator, high-spirited and vigorous as he Stole The Limelight. You remained unmoved. After Careful Consideration, you decided to temporarily hide your cultivation.] [Day Two: You got up early to cultivate. You cultivated for a Whole Day.] [Day Three: You got up early to cultivate. At noon, unbearable hunger drove you to the Communal Cafeteria specially built by the Xiao Family for orphans. While dining, you noticed everyone discussing how a Distinguished Guest had arrived In The Clan today. You were Not Interested. After Dining, you went to the Back Mountain and cultivated for a Whole Day.] [Day Four: You got up early to cultivate...] [Day Five: You got up intending to cultivate, but your Friends invited you to play with them. You tactfully Refused, and your Friends found you quite boring. However, you still learned from them that a Distant Relative named Xiao Xun'er had arrived at the Xiao Family.] [Day Six: You felt that cultivation should Balance Work and Rest, so you Wandered Around within the Xiao Family. You happened to Encounter Xiao Yan showing Xiao Xun'er around the Xiao Family. You did not Pay Attention to them and headed to the Back Mountain to Bathe in Hot Spring.] [Day Seven: You got up to cultivate and Encountered Xiao Yan and Xiao Xun'er again. You discovered that the way Xiao Yan Looked Towards Xiao Xun'er was somewhat strange, leaving you thoughtful. That night, On The Way Back from the Back Mountain, you discovered a short, furtive figure. You Followed him and found that Xiao Yan was trying to Sneak Into a room. You Originally Didn't Want To Pay Attention, but out of a Sense of Justice, you intervened and stopped him.] [Day Eight:...] ... [Day Thirty: You got up early to cultivate and broke through to Dou Qi Power Stage Three...] ... [Day Ninety-Five: You got up early to cultivate and broke through to Dou Qi Power Stage Four...] ... [Day One Hundred: You went to the Xiao Family's Dou Technique Hall and learned the Yellow Rank Low Grade Tiger Strength Fist. You were extremely dissatisfied that you could only learn such a common Low-grade Dou Technique, but there was nothing you could do.] [Day One Hundred and One: You got up and went to the Back Mountain to practice Dou Skill.] ... [Day One Hundred and Twenty: You cultivated diligently and Mastered the Low-grade Dou Technique, Tiger Strength Fist.] ... [Day Three Hundred: You wandered around In The City and Heard that the Mitel Auction House was auctioning Na Rings. After feeling the few Gold Coin On One's Person, you Ran Home to cultivate.] [Day Three Hundred and Sixty-Five: The Xiao Family conducted another Dou Qi Cultivation test. The Younger Generation was required to take the stage for testing. Under everyone's gaze, you revealed your Dou Qi Power Stage Seven strength, leaving the Xiao Family greatly shocked.] [Day Three Hundred and Sixty-Six: Because of your Cultivation Talent, the clan bestowed upon you one Maid and two guards. Your talent gradually spread far and wide.] [Day Three Hundred and Seventy: You Refused Xiao Ning and others' invitation to play and cultivated alone.] ... [Day Five Hundred and Forty-Five: You condensed a Qi Cyclone and broke through to Dou Zhe. You informed the clan elders of this, hoping to obtain a Cultivation Method.] [Day Five Hundred and Forty-Seven: Your Dou Qi Attribute was tested as Fire Attribute. You were disappointed that you could not become an alchemist because you lacked even a trace of Wood Attribute. Because of your Outstanding Talent, you were approved to head to the Dou Qi Pavilion to choose a Cultivation Method. In the Dou Qi Pavilion, you Obtained the Yellow Tier High Grade Cultivation Technique, Flame Refining Burning.] ... [Day Six Hundred and Seventy: Jia Nan Academy came to Wu Tan City to recruit students. Your talent greatly shocked the instructors, and you successfully passed the assessment.] ... [Day Two Thousand Four Hundred and Ninety: You searched for Medicinal Herbs in the forest outside the Jia Nan Academy Inner Courtyard and Encountered a Level 5 Magical Beast. You Died.] [Simulation End.] [Extracting talent items--] [Currently Available: Low-grade Storage Ring, Fallen Heart Flame, Mysterious Rank Middle Grade Dou Skill Tiger Roar Art.] [Please select one.]

What the hell.

Xiao Ming scratched his cheek. He was somewhat speechless at his own careless Way of Death In The Simulated Life, while also falling into a difficult choice.

Don't Know whether it was because this was his first simulation, but the drop rate was relatively high and there was even a guarantee. An High-level Item like the Fallen Heart Flame had actually Appeared.

During the 2,490 days In The Simulated Life, the Fallen Heart Flame should have been the Highest Level item that had Appeared. It was an entry that Appeared after he saw the Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower when Entering The Inner Academy.

The Fallen Heart Flame was ranked fourteenth on the Heavenly Flame Ranking. For those who swallowed and refined it, their Dou Qi would be tempered by Heart Flame at all times. It was known as a Cultivation Cheat.

In Battle, it could also form Heart Flame Inside the Body of an opponent, forcing them to divide their attention to suppress it during combat. Weaker Individuals would directly self-ignite, so it could be called a Minion Cleaner.

Among these three options, the Fallen Heart Flame was undoubtedly the most valuable, and also the one Xiao Ming most wanted to choose.

But he could not choose it!
