The carriage traveled over an uneven road.

The swaying, jolting mud road had Lin Bei inwardly grumbling.

Roads were the economy.

Were the people of the Heaven Dou Empire all idiots?

They did not even know to fix their roads? He was not asking them to build highways or cement roads, but if they built some asphalt roads or flagstone roads, would the economy not take off?

Once the economy rose, they could train more soul masters and improve the standard of living within the country. Would their national strength not increase?

Surely the people of the Heaven Dou Empire could not all be idiots, right?

They did not know to do something with every benefit and no downside?

As Lin Bei grumbled, he pondered the issue of this world's nobles and powerful figures.

If they were too lazy even to do something like repair roads, the nobles and powerful figures of the empire were probably corrupt down to their bones.

The carriage was quiet.

Omora was not a talkative person. After getting into the carriage, he had kept his eyes closed to rest, as if he were cultivating.

Lin Bei had no one to talk to, so he could only think about this and that in his heart. At the same time, he poked his head out from the curtain to admire the scenery along the way.

Along the journey.

Because of Omora's presence, Lin Bei did not dare use the simulator casually, afraid the other party might notice something off, so Lin Bei saved up all the Simulation Points that refreshed at midnight.

Ten days later, they arrived at a city called Diterra and stopped there for a temporary rest.

That night, Lin Bei slept in his own hotel dormitory and was just about to use the simulator to run a simulation when the system's voice suddenly rang out—

Ding, congratulations, you have obtained 10 Simulation Points. The search function has been activated.

Lin Bei paused. This thing actually had new functions?

After looking into it, he finally realized what he had missed before.

It turned out the simulator also had a search function. This function was specially used to search for other timelines to run life simulations in.

But this function required his Simulation Points to reach 10 before it would activate.

Yet whenever Lin Bei had obtained Simulation Points before, he had used them on the spot, which resulted in him never being able to activate this function.

"So aside from the search function, does the simulator have other functions too, only they haven't been activated yet because I don't have enough Simulation Points?"

Lin Bei pondered.

"But how many Simulation Points are needed before the remaining functions activate?"

The golden finger he had obtained was not intelligent at all.

There was neither any newbie guide nor any particularly detailed instruction manual.

Lin Bei had to figure everything out himself.

After thinking for a while, Lin Bei shook his head. "Forget it. The simulator's current functions are enough for now. I'll try this search function first..."

Consume 10 Simulation Points. Beginning search for Simulation Timeline. Estimated time: 24 hours. Please wait patiently...

"It takes 24 hours?"

Lin Bei had thought this search would only take an instant.

Since it actually consumed a full day, there was nothing he could do. He could only obediently go to sleep and wait for the simulator to find a new timeline.

The next day, when Lin Bei got up and went downstairs.

Omora was already eating breakfast in the hall.

"Come have breakfast," Omora called calmly when he saw Lin Bei.

After the two finished breakfast, they continued on their way.

They traveled along the main road, and the carriage's speed was not slow.

When midnight arrived, a line of small words suddenly appeared before Lin Bei's eyes—

New Simulation Timeline found: "Ip Man."

"Ip Man?"

Wasn't that Master Ip?

Lin Bei was first stunned, then reacted—

So the simulator's Simulation Timelines included other timelines besides Douluo Continent?

Did that mean...

In the future, the simulator might even find more powerful timelines, such as mythological timelines like Journey to the West or the Primordial World...

The upper limits of those timelines were far stronger than Douluo Continent's.

After all, in Douluo Continent, even gods could be killed by Hidden Weapons.

It really had no prestige to speak of.

"In that case, I'll have to save up more Simulation Points from now on. If I can search up some mythological timeline like Journey to the West, then I'll really take off..."

Lin Bei murmured to himself, his mood surging with excitement.

He turned his gaze to the Simulation Timeline, Ip Man, on the panel, then spent the Simulation Point that had just refreshed to run a simulation—

Selected Simulation Timeline: Ip Man. Spent 1 Simulation Point. Beginning timeline traversal simulation...

In 2022 on Earth, as a young man who became unemployed the moment he graduated, one day, your vision suddenly went dark. After that, you transmigrated into the world of the movie Ip Man...

Oh-ho, another transmigration method unlocked.

He just did not know what kind of reward this simulated life in this timeline would give him in the end.

Lin Bei looked expectantly at the freshly appearing lines of small text before him.

At twenty-three, you transmigrated onto the streets of Foshan in the Ip Man Timeline. Your casual Western-style outfit drew curious stares from the pedestrians on the road.

You felt lost. After asking around, you learned that you had transmigrated into the world of the movie Ip Man.

Once you understood your situation, you thought it over and decided to go visit Ip Man.

You arrived at the entrance of Ip Man's villa and knocked. Ip Man's butler, Uncle Fu, saw that you were dressed extraordinarily, and after reporting to Ip Man, he led you into the villa.

You met Ip Man.

You had a conversation with Ip Man and expressed your wish to take him as your master.

Seeing this, Lin Bei nodded.

In the Ip Man Timeline, if he wanted to survive, the best way was to stick with this chosen son of the plane.

After all, before long, that war of invasion would break out. When the time came, the land of Divine Land would be plunged into misery, with corpses everywhere and starving people filling the fields.

As someone who had never experienced war, Lin Bei was afraid he would not be able to survive under those circumstances.

Building a connection with Ip Man was the best way to save his life.

But at this time, Ip Man had no intention of accepting disciples, and he politely declined you.

Unable to become Ip Man's disciple, you felt somewhat disappointed, but you did not give up. After leaving Ip Man's home, you used the watch you had on you to exchange for twenty silver dollars at a pawnshop.

You settled down in Foshan and often went to find Ip Man for tea and conversation. Seeing that you no longer brought up becoming his disciple, Ip Man was also happy to chat with you, who were so well-informed.

That day, Master Liao of Foshan came to visit Ip Man for a sparring match. You happened to be present. While the two sides were fighting, you went out and ran into Sha Dan Yuan, the second young master of Foshan Restaurant. You spoke with him, preventing him from seeing the contest inside the room and helping him avoid the tragedy of running away from home.

You changed Sha Dan Yuan's tragic fate and obtained one [Good Person Card].

Wait, what was this?

The instant that line of small text appeared, a white card suddenly materialized in front of Lin Bei's eyes. He jumped in fright and hurriedly caught the card in his hand.

Fortunately, he was currently alone in the hotel dormitory. Otherwise, if this thing had suddenly appeared out of thin air, wouldn't it have drawn Omora and the others' attention?

Lin Bei lowered his head and looked at the card in his hand—

In the center of the white card was a cartoon heart design.

When Lin Bei's gaze fell on the card, a line of small text immediately appeared beside it—

Good Person Card: Select any target and use this card to slightly increase their favorability toward you. This card can only be used once.

A simulated life could even give him this kind of item?

Lin Bei immediately laughed out loud.

This was good stuff.

After reading the Good Person Card's description, he immediately put it away.

Items obtained from the simulator like this could all be stored in the simulator's dedicated backpack space and controlled by thought. As long as he thought about it, he could store them away or take them out. It was extremely convenient.
