Looking at the Simulator's rewards, Su Ming had a bold idea.

"I choose the talent I Want It All!"

[Obtained Purple Talent: I Want It All!]

[Other rewards detected. Activate I Want It All?]

Just as expected!

Seeing this prompt, Su Ming let out a sigh of relief inwardly.

After obtaining this talent, he would no longer be limited to choosing only one reward from future Simulations—he could claim them all.

The downside was that this talent was best used only when selecting Simulation rewards.

If he used it elsewhere and triggered some unforeseen change like in the Simulation, the losses might outweigh the gains.

"Activate the talent!"

In an instant, Su Ming's cultivation broke through to Foundation Establishment Great Perfection, and his alchemy realm also advanced to Third-grade Alchemist.

He completely mastered all the information contained within the Azure Emperor Longevity Art.

He could also freely wield the strand of True Meaning of Lightning within his Sea of Consciousness.

The next second, Su Ming sensed an unknown force charging toward his Primordial Spirit.

His expression changed drastically. He had not expected the Sinister Worm to appear even though he had not consumed a Foundation Establishment Pill to break through.

With no time to think, Su Ming immediately mobilized the True Meaning of Lightning in his Sea of Consciousness and sent it charging toward the Sinister Worm.

After a scream rang out beside Su Ming's ears, that Weird aura vanished.

"How could this happen?"

Su Ming stared at the changes in his body in disbelief.

If he remembered correctly, the root of everything should have been the Foundation Establishment Pill. Since he had broken through using the Simulator, there should have been no question of consuming one.

"Could it be that if I took a Foundation Establishment Pill in the Simulation, it still counts as having taken one in reality?"

"No! That makes no sense!"

After turning it over and over in his mind, Su Ming felt the waters here ran far too deep.

Not everything Ye Chuxue had told him was correct. There were many things even she did not know.

"So in this era, even if there's nothing wrong with the Foundation Establishment Pill, breaking through to Foundation Establishment will still result in being devoured by Sinister Worms?"

"Then how do these Sinister Worms enter our bodies?"

In the end, Su Ming sighed helplessly and turned his gaze toward the Simulator.

[Simulation cooling down: 12 hours]

When Su Ming looked at the Simulator again, he discovered that the cooldown had changed from one hour to twenty-four hours.

"Looks like it's because I broke through to Foundation Establishment."

While waiting for the Simulator to cool down, Su Ming planned to familiarize himself with his current power. This power still felt somewhat unfamiliar to him.

By the time Su Ming opened his eyes again, it was already deep into the night.

"Begin Simulation!"

[Simulation begins!]

[Character: Su Ming]

[Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Great Perfection]

[Drawing a random talent!]

[Congratulations, you have obtained White Talent: Business Prodigy!]

[Business Prodigy: Reduces your spirit stone expenditure by 20% whenever you purchase anything.]

"Uh..."

"No way, man. This is way too stingy. A White Talent?"

Looking at the White Talent in the Simulator, Su Ming was left speechless.

What use was this thing to him?

Could it be that he was paying back the debt for drawing Young Supreme Being earlier?

[After stabilizing your Foundation Establishment Great Perfection cultivation, you decide to seek out Ye Chuxue ahead of time.]

[You calculate the timing. Ye Chuxue should only break through to Foundation Establishment one or two years later. Right now, she should still be an Outer Sect disciple.]

[The next day, after searching among Qingyun Sect's Outer Sect disciples for a long time, you finally discover Ye Chuxue.]

[At this time, Ye Chuxue is still only at Great Perfection of Qi Refining.]

[After concealing your cultivation and approaching her, you whisper three words into her ear: "Awakened One."]

[As a result, you discover Ye Chuxue looking at you with a puzzled expression, not understanding what you mean.]

[You do not explain further and turn to leave directly.]

[After returning to your Cave Mansion, you begin pondering Ye Chuxue's identity.]

[Through that test just now, you can confirm that she did not awaken during the Qi Refining Stage.]

[Since she did not awaken during the Qi Refining Stage, how could she, having only just awakened upon breaking through to Foundation Establishment, know so many secrets?]

[You believe Ye Chuxue's identity must be highly unusual. You decide to keep watch over her at all times and wait for the day she breaks through to Foundation Establishment.]

[In the second year, you discover that Ye Chuxue's cultivation has grown far deeper, and she will soon break through to Foundation Establishment.]

[Over the past year, aside from keeping an eye on Ye Chuxue, you continuously deduce cultivation arts in the Treasure Pavilion.]

[Using the cultivation art—Blazing Sun Finger—you successfully deduce a fragmentary volume of the Great Desolation Sky Prison Finger.]

[On every Full Moon Night, you pay especially close attention to Ye Chuxue's movements. Sure enough, on the Full Moon Night of the eighth month, you discover her heading to the Back Mountain.]

[Seeing this, you hurriedly follow her. Upon arriving at the Back Mountain, you see her take out a Foundation Establishment Pill and prepare for one final push.]

[Before long, Ye Chuxue's aura grows more powerful, and she successfully breaks through to Foundation Establishment.]

[Immediately afterward, you see three forces emerge from her body. One belongs to her, one belongs to the Sinister Worm, and the last is an extremely cold aura.]

[Ye Chuxue uses Taiyin Power to forcibly suppress the Sinister Worm in her body. When she opens her eyes, she spits out a mouthful of blood.]

[At this moment, you discover that her gaze has changed, becoming far more weathered, as though she has learned every truth in an instant.]

[You are deeply puzzled by this sight!]

[Why are you and the others all utterly confused when awakening, while Ye Chuxue seems to know everything the moment she awakens?]

[You slowly step out of the darkness.]

[Ye Chuxue notices the movement and watches you warily. "Who?"]

[When your face appears before her, she remembers who you are.]

["It's you? So you're an Awakened One too?"]

["That's right, it's me. I saw a year ago that you would definitely awaken!"]

[Ye Chuxue is somewhat shocked after hearing your explanation.]

["How did you know I would definitely awaken?"]

[Faced with Ye Chuxue's questioning, you do not explain much. You only tell her that you saw she possessed the Taiyin Body, and those with such a physique could basically awaken.]

[After hearing your explanation, Ye Chuxue nods and says nothing more.]

[Seeing that she does not ask about the Sinister Worm, you ask why she is not surprised.]

[After hesitating for a moment, Ye Chuxue explains that when she broke through to Foundation Establishment, her Taiyin Body awakened, and she saw some memories.]

[Those memories belonged to the previous owner of the Taiyin Body, and they were filled with information about Sinister Worms.]

"So that's how it is!"

"No wonder a Foundation Establishment cultivator with no backing would know so many secrets."

Looking at Ye Chuxue's answer in the Simulator, Su Ming nodded in sudden realization.

"The Taiyin Body... interesting."

By the looks of it, there should be quite a few similar Special Physiques in this Cultivation World.

Could it be that everyone with a physique could awaken?

Or could only certain Special Physiques guarantee awakening one hundred percent of the time?
