Changing Dynasties!

Next, Wang Ping and Chi Feng returned to the house together.

It was already late at night, and Wang Ping had no desire to continue simulating, so he chose to sleep as well.

The next day, Wang Ping and Chi Feng still rose early.

Chi Feng continued cultivating diligently.

Wang Ping held A'Huang, the little mutt Chi Feng had raised, stroked his head, and silently said in his heart, "System, I want to begin a new simulation."

"Ding! This simulation will cost 8 Low-Grade Spirit Stones. Proceed with the simulation?"

The system's voice rang out.

"Spend them." Wang Ping answered without hesitation.

As soon as he spoke, 8 Low-Grade Spirit Stones vanished from Wang Ping's Storage Ring, and the system's voice rang out once more.

"Ding! Life Simulation activated. Refreshing talents."

"Ding! Talents refreshed successfully. Congratulations, Host, you have not refreshed any talents."

Wang Ping: "???"

Wang Ping was truly speechless.

You didn't refresh a single talent, yet you were congratulating him? That was simply outrageous.

Ding! Life Simulation begins.

The system ignored Wang Ping's complaints, and words began appearing on the virtual screen.

March 11th, Great Xia Calendar Year 480: You cultivated diligently. At dusk, the Village Chief and the others returned, bringing back two Essence Nurturing Grasses and the corpses of two Gale Leopards. The Village Chief asked whether you wanted an Essence Nurturing Grass. You chose to take one. The Village Chief gave you one Essence Nurturing Grass.

Over the following period, your cultivation did not improve rapidly, leaving the Village Chief deeply puzzled and disappointed. However, he said nothing and continued treating you as before, carefully nurturing you.

August, Great Xia Calendar Year 480: Chi Village relocated in its entirety, leaving you behind in Blackwind Town.

July 10th, Great Xia Calendar Year 487: You fled to Whitewood Village, two thousand li away from Blackwind Town, and began cultivating while keeping a low profile. This time, you swore never to expose yourself.

October 8th, Great Xia Calendar Year 487: You learned that Ye Xiaorou would be attacked, but you did nothing more. Ye Xiaorou died as a result.

January 5th, Great Xia Calendar Year 488: Your cultivation successfully broke through to the Organ Training Realm Peak Stage.

February 15th, Great Xia Calendar Year 488: You felt it was time to break through to the Postnatal Realm. You went to Black Rock City, purchased an Acquired Realm Pill, and swallowed it, breaking through to the Postnatal Realm.

"Oh? This time, my cultivation speed has increased quite a bit."

Wang Ping smiled faintly as he looked at the simulation's contents.

More than a decade of life experience truly brought enormous benefits to both dealing with people and practicing martial arts.

Then, Wang Ping fixed his gaze on the screen again and continued watching.

Words continued appearing on the screen.

June 1st, Great Xia Calendar Year 488: The Ye Family suffered complete annihilation.

November 5th, Great Xia Calendar Year 488: You successfully broke through to the Postnatal Realm. Because the Ye Family had been destroyed and the Zhao Family dominated Whitewood Village, the villagers suffered bullying and oppression, and you could not escape it either. This time, you chose not to endure any longer. Instead, you secretly acted and wiped out the Zhao Family.

The Zhao Family's destruction shook Whitewood Village. Everyone rejoiced and felt grateful to you. In response, you hid your achievements and reputation, continuing to cultivate painstakingly while keeping a low profile.

July 1st, Great Xia Calendar Year 489: With sufficient Spirit Stones aiding your cultivation, your cultivation rose to the third level of the Postnatal Realm, advancing at a startling pace.

On this day, fifteen-year-old Ye Chen returned to Whitewood Village. His cultivation had miraculously reached the Postnatal Realm. He wished to take revenge, but upon hearing that the Zhao Family had been wiped out, he felt both delighted and conflicted, because he had failed to personally cut down his enemies.

Great Xia Calendar Year 491: Floods and droughts appeared throughout Great Xia, and the people could no longer survive. Coupled with the Great Xia Emperor's incompetence and treacherous officials holding power in court, Great Xia began showing signs of great chaos. That year, your cultivation improved again, successfully breaking through to the seventh level of the Postnatal Realm.

However, what troubled you was that you had completely squandered all the Spirit Stones on you, leaving you unable to continue rapidly improving your cultivation.

Great Xia Calendar Year 493: Xia Kingdom fell completely into chaos. Bandits ran rampant, and heroes from all sides began to rise in rebellion, with the turmoil spreading to Whitewood Village. A Rebel Army passed through Whitewood Village, causing disturbances. Many villagers had their food seized, and you were no exception.

Knowing the nature of this Rebel Army well, you did not clash with them and chose to hand over your money and food.

Great Xia Calendar Year 494: Your cultivation broke through to the eighth level of the Postnatal Realm. That same year, the court dispatched troops to suppress the Rebel Army. When you heard of this, you clapped your hands in delight, believing that these Rebel Army soldiers who oppressed the people deserved to be destroyed.

At the end of Great Xia Calendar Year 495: Your cultivation broke through to the ninth level of the Postnatal Realm. That same year, the invincible Spirit Origin Realm Old Ancestor of the Great Xia Royal Family ascended. The Feudal Lords could no longer hold themselves back, and began drawing in forces from every side, declaring themselves kings and eyeing the throne.

The court was furious and alarmed, intending to dispatch a great army to suppress the Feudal Lords. However, the Feudal Lords were too powerful and difficult to suppress. Chaos repeatedly erupted within Xia Kingdom, and Whitewood Village was also tragically affected, with countless villagers becoming refugees. You knew that if you remained here, you likely could no longer cultivate in peace.

In the end, you chose a relatively safe mountain wilderness, reclaimed land to farm, and planned to withdraw from the world and cultivate bitterly.

Great Xia Calendar Year 497: You successfully broke through to the tenth level of the Postnatal Realm. That year, Great Xia's internal strife became increasingly terrifying. Both the Imperial Army and the Feudal Lords suffered grievous losses, corpses blanketed the land, and the country was nothing less than a living hell. Chu Kingdom, which bordered Xia Kingdom, wished to send troops to conquer Xia Kingdom and annex it.

However, Zhao Kingdom, which bordered Chu Kingdom, did not want Chu Kingdom to annex Xia Kingdom and strengthen itself. Thus, it dispatched heavy troops to the border, forcing Chu Kingdom to abandon the idea and likewise station troops in its border cities to guard against a sudden Zhao Kingdom invasion.

Great Xia Calendar Year 499: The Great Xia Royal Family was overthrown, and the Feudal Lords began a civil war, seeking to ascend the throne. All sides campaigned against one another, and the people suffered miserably. You still remained hidden from the world, attempting to break through to the Innate Realm, but repeatedly failed. All you could do was sigh that breaking through to the Innate Realm was indeed difficult—no wonder Chi Village had only a few Innate Realm experts.

Great Xia Calendar Year 500: Bai Tianhong, whose cultivation had broken through to the seventh level of the Spirit Origin Realm, could finally no longer stand by and watch the people of Xia Kingdom suffer so miserably. He chose to intervene, helping Feudal Lord Liu Yu defeat the other Feudal Lords and ascend the throne.

After Feudal Lord Liu Yu ascended the throne, he changed the nation's name to Great Shu. Thus, peace returned to the realm, and order gradually recovered.

After learning that peace had returned to the realm, you emerged once more, planning to seek a method to break through to the Innate Realm. You knew very clearly that you were already forty-five years old. If you did not seek another method soon, your chances of breaking through to the Innate Realm would only grow lower and lower, until you eventually died of old age in the Postnatal Realm.

In the end, you traveled the world and learned of a medicinal pill called the Innate Realm Pill. Like the Acquired Realm Pill, it could cleanse one's marrow and transform one's physique, increasing the odds of a Postnatal Realm martial artist breaking through to the Innate Realm. However, the Innate Realm Pill was exceedingly precious, and you, destitute and penniless, could not afford it.

For this reason, you chose to hunt demon beasts to earn Spirit Stones. However, your comprehension was ordinary, and you still did not truly master martial arts, leaving your combat strength weak among those of the same realm. Although you were extremely cautious and only targeted demon beasts with lower cultivation than your own, the weather was unpredictable and misfortune could strike without warning. Two months later, you accidentally encountered a Sixth-Level Demon Beast and died miserably in its jaws.

With your death, this simulation ended.
