Simulation Ends, "Bloodline Ancestral Return?"

[Year 506, Ye Changming died on the battlefield. The Ye Family Third Ancestor went to the battlefield, and you were forcibly taken to the battlefield by the Liu Family.]

[That same year, by chance, you were forced to kill a Heavenly Origin Realm martial artist from the Min Family in self-defense. A Void God Realm expert from the Min Family noticed something was wrong and saw you. A phantom quickly materialized from this expert, clad in a Pure White Dao Robe, its face indistinct, radiating a vast and powerful aura. The void twisted and overlapped. You sensed it and barely turned your head, only to see a Blade Light of blinding brilliance hurtling toward you. The Blade Light was dazzling, mesmerizing. No matter how frantic you felt inside, you couldn't dodge it. You died.]

[Simulation ended. Comprehensive score: 3900]

[Evaluation: This was a relatively successful life. You could have led the Ye Family into a new era, with children and grandchildren, a happy family. You died on the path of pursuing strength. To stronger powers, your life meant nothing.]

[You can use your Evaluation Points to exchange for the following rewards.]

[Option One: Increase realm by one level, costs 50 points, can be selected repeatedly. Point cost varies with realm.]

[Option Two: Upgrade Fist of Mountain Shattering to Peak Attainment, comprehend Great Accomplishment Mountain Shaking Fist Intent, costs 1000 points, can be selected repeatedly.]

[Option Three: Obtain Yellow Grade Mid-Rank Martial Skill 'Mayfly Step Slash' at beginner level, costs 1 point, can be selected repeatedly.]

[Option Four: Obtain permanent talent 'Wonderful Brush Blooming Flowers', costs 800 points.]

[Option Five: Upgrade talent 'Innate Dual Soul', costs 230 points.]

[Option Six: Upgrade Bone Structure to Yellow Grade Mid-Rank, costs 200 points.]

[Option Seven: Obtain memories of the Third Simulation, costs 500 points. (Memories are obtained in a movie-like format; obtaining memories does not cost points. Points are used to protect the spirit soul from damage caused by a massive influx of information.)]

Seeing these options this time, Ye Feng's gaze lingered on the Great Accomplishment Mountain Shaking Fist Intent entry. He was torn about whether to choose it. Deep down, he really wanted it, but the price was simply too high. After some deliberation, he ultimately set it aside for now.

In the end, he upgraded his Bone Structure to Profound Grade Low Rank, spending 1700 points, upgraded the talent 'Innate Dual Soul' for 230 points, obtained the permanent talent 'Wonderful Brush Blooming Flowers' for 800 points, and decided not to miss out on the memories this time, spending 500 points. He also raised his realm to Late Blood Transformation Realm.

[Spent 3730 points, 170 points remaining for drawing talents in the next simulation.]

As soon as Ye Feng made his selections and accepted the memories, a flood of information surged into his mind. Scenes from the simulation flashed by rapidly yet etched themselves deeply into his memory. At the same time, his body underwent rapid changes. He was no longer 1.5 meters tall but had grown to 1.7 meters, after which his age prevented any further height increase. A refined, scholarly aura, born from years of cultivation, settled over him, making him strikingly attractive.

Ye Feng's attributes changed swiftly, ending up as follows:

Name: Ye Feng

Race: Human Race

Lifespan: 8/180

Bone Structure: Profound Grade Low Rank

Realm: Late Blood Transformation Realm

Talents: Innate Spirit Soul, Innate Medicinal Heart, Wonderful Brush Blooming Flowers

Stamina: 133

Strength: 315

Agility: 98

Spirit: 410

Charm: 90/100

Martial Skill Divine Ability: Yellow Grade High Rank - Fist of Mountain Shattering (15/) Perfected Mastery

This simulation brought Ye Feng an immense boost. Although he was only at Late Blood Transformation Realm, most Organ Refining Realm martial artists were likely no match for him. His attributes were absurdly high, and combined with his martial skills, if he weren't worried about getting cocky, he'd have said, "Get the Organ Refining Realm out of here. Send me two Essence Gathering Realm martial artists to fight!"

But he didn't stay elated for long. Soon, he was pondering the Copper Ore Vein resource point on the border between Yangzhou and Jingzhou. That place was far too dangerous, appearing unpredictably. With the current Ye Family's strength, the gap was too vast. Owning it would only bring annihilation.

The Fengyuan Small Blessed Land, being close to Fengyuan City, was manageable. Within his own turf, he could still cover it up. The fact that no one had discovered it in over five hundred years during the last simulation proved that. But the Copper Ore Vein was different. It was too far from the Ye Family. Trying to hide such a thing under the noses of the Min and Liu Families, two Renowned Families, would have them sniffing out the anomaly in no time.

The Third Simulation had ended, so he didn't know if other forces would later intervene to stop the war between the Min and Liu Families from spreading further. Clearly, that was none of his concern now. But he still needed to figure out how to handle such a situation if it happened again, or he'd repeat the same mistakes.

After racking his brains, he couldn't come up with a good solution. When the time came, to survive, he'd have to move the entire clan first. Unless the Ye Family gained enough strength to make the two families hesitate to act against them. Strength was the deciding factor in everything.

With that, Ye Feng stopped overthinking. Absorbing so many memories left his head feeling a bit swollen, even if it hadn't harmed his mind. He looked at the soft headboard of his bed, flopped down, and slept straight until noon the next day, when he slowly got up and walked out of his room.

Before long, Ye Feng arrived at the nearby Jia-character Room and found Ye Changming. Ye Changming was stunned by Ye Feng's transformation. He could barely recognize this as his own son, but the features were strikingly similar to his own. He asked, "Are you Feng'er? What happened to your body?"

Ye Feng couldn't tell Ye Changming the real reason, so he told a Well-intentioned Lie, saying that over the past month or so, he'd been feeling unwell, with filth seeping out of his body at night and constant fatigue. He claimed he didn't know what was going on either.

Hearing this, Ye Changming was worried at first, but then a thought struck him, and joy welled up inside.

Many cases of Bloodline Ancestral Return or awakening a Special Physique showed such symptoms before the awakening. And they all shared one common trait: abysmal Bone Structure and talent before the awakening.

Ye Changming promptly took out a translucent bead the size of a head and had Ye Feng place his hand on it. As the bead's glow shifted from dim to steadily brighter, Ye Changming's smile grew wider, until he finally let out an involuntary exclamation.

"Profound Grade Low Rank! Just as I guessed!"
