Daily Cap on Karmic Luck Points, Minor Accomplishment in the Fourth Pin Marrow Refining Realm!
Ling Yi stood up abruptly and stared intently at the Simulation Simulation comments.
Whether we can survive past the tenth day depends on this battle.
This is very important to Ling Yi.
Although it was a Simulation bullet screen, it made Ling Yi extremely nervous.
[You were already prepared. The instant the man in black swung his sword, you used the Cloud-Treading Steps to Teleportation aside, advancing instead of retreating. Your left hand brushed the sword, directly storing it in your storage space, while your right hand Mysterious Jade Hand, stabbing straight at the man's heart.]
Upon seeing this, Ling Yi's eyes widened suddenly. "You can actually do this?"
Ling Yi never expected that he would actually make use of the storage space in his left hand in the Simulation.
The sword in his hand suddenly vanished, causing the leader of the men in black to freeze for a moment. In that instant, Ling Yi's right hand had already pierced the man's heart.
[The man in black collapsed, his eyes wide with disbelief. But you weren't idle. He still had men with him. You Cloud-Treading Steps technique to its maximum, instantly bursting out of the cell.]
[The leader of the men in black was only at the early stage of Fourth Pin Martial Practitioner, while his subordinates were only at the Third Pin. Even with the enhancement of their Cloud-Treading Steps, they were no match for you. You easily killed all four of their men.]
Upon seeing this, Ling Yi violently swung his arm.
It was a success.
Just as Ling Yi had guessed, the strength of these men in black was only between the Third Pin and Fourth Pin.
With Ling Yi's surprise attack, they were able to kill all of them successfully.
[Freedom was right in front of you, and without thinking, you turned and rushed out of the prison. But as soon as you stepped out, you were blocked by a masked man in black.]
[The moment you saw this person, you understood one thing: you couldn't defeat him. He was Fifth Pin Blood Refining Realm Martial Practitioner, not yet Sixth Pin Qi Condensation Realm cultivator, but even so, he was still someone a Fourth Pin like yourself couldn't handle.]
"Go back, and you might survive; leave, and you'll die!" The other party didn't attack you; they were merely issuing a warning.
[But freedom was right before your eyes, how could you possibly accept it? Without any hesitation, you used the Cloud-Treading Steps to run to the side. However, the next moment, a terrifyingly hot Aura came from behind you, and you were engulfed by a ball of Huoyan, your consciousness instantly plunging into darkness.]
[Ding! This Simulation has ended. Please select your reward from three options!]
[Reward 1: Simulation Memory!]
[Reward 2: 10% of your cultivation level!]
[Reward 3: 100 gold notes worth 100 taels each, one Ice Silkworm Soft Armor, and one Cloud-Opening Sword!]
Ling Yi didn't choose the reward, but instead browsed through the Simulation bullet comments.
First, let's be clear: the Sound-Listening Gu mentioned by the leader of the men in black, and the Ten Thousand Gu Sect behind it, are not part of the same faction as the men in black.
The Fifth Pin expert at the prison gate was not with the man in black.
They're either in cahoots with the person controlling the Golden Insects, or they're Liu Zheng's backup plan.
Ling Yi guessed it was the latter.
Because of the four words "a glimmer of hope" spoken by the other party, this person didn't care about his own life or death, but seemed to hope more that he could live on as the Third Prince.
"Very well, Wreguid!" Ling Yi sneered.
" Laozi, I just wanted to escape from prison, but now, Laozi don't want to leave at all."
"System, claim reward 2!"
A surge of Berserk energy appeared out of nowhere and began to modify Ling Yi's body.
In just a short while, Ling Yi jumped from Second Pin Martial Practitioner to Fourth Pin Martial Practitioner.
At the same time, a new set of memories appeared in Ling Yi's mind.
It's about memorizing the techniques you've learned.
How could receiving cultivation rewards include memories of cultivation techniques?
Open the system interface.
[ Karmic Luck Simulation System ]
[Host: Ling Yi ]
[Cultivation Level: Rank Fourth Pin Martial Practitioner ( Minor Accomplishment of the Marrow Refining Realm )]
[Techniques: Overbearing Fist ( Great Accomplishment ), Cloud-Treading Steps ( Minor Accomplishment ), Mysterious Jade Art ( Minor Accomplishment ), Mysterious Jade Hand ( Minor Accomplishment )]
[Current Karmic Luck: 47]
[ Karmic Luck Radius: 300 meters]
[Each Simulation currently consumes 30 Karmic Luck Points. Consuming 30 Karmic Luck will allow you to skip the Simulation barrage!]
Sure enough, their proficiency with the techniques improved.
Ling Yi guessed that it was probably because he had already learned these techniques, which was why he received the cultivation memories of these techniques along with the cultivation reward.
The reason this hadn't happened before was probably because Ling Yi hadn't included these techniques in the system entries.
But regardless, this is a good thing.
The higher the proficiency of a technique, the greater the understanding of that technique, and the stronger its power will naturally be.
However, it seems we're running out of Karmic Luck Points.
After becoming Fourth Pin Martial Practitioner, the Karmic Luck Radius reached 300 meters, but the Karmic Luck consumed in each Simulation also increased from 10 points to 30 points.
There shouldn't be so few Karmic Luck Points points.
Logically speaking, even if only Pang Qi provides Ling Yi with Karmic Luck Karmic Luck Points, at 1 point per minute, that would amount to 1440 points per day over 24 hours.
Because each person has a limited number of Karmic Luck Points available each day.
For example, Pang Qi can only provide a maximum of 100 points of Karmic Luck per day.
The other prison guards can only provide themselves with 10 points of Karmic Luck each day.
So Ling Yi's Karmic Luck only had 47 points left, oh, now it's 48 points, huh? 49 points?
How come my Karmic Luck Points are increasing so fast all of a sudden? One point per second?
"It's the Karmic Luck Radius!" Ling Yi quickly realized the key.
The Karmic Luck Radius has greatly increased, and it is very likely that there are people with Karmic Luck within the Karmic Luck Radius.
For example, the second or third floor of a prison.
Unfortunately, since he couldn't see the person, Ling Yi Ling Yi couldn't view the data panel; otherwise, he would have known who it was.
The data panel can only be seen by Ling Yi Ling Yi when he is standing in front of him.
"Hey!" Ling Yi chuckled. He had been worried about not having enough Karmic Luck Points before, but now he didn't have to worry about it anymore.
One Karmic Luck Points per second—that's definitely a person with Karmic Luck. So, the daily limit for the Karmic Luck Points one can provide should be at least 1000 points, right?
Huh? Why is the Karmic Luck Points gain rate back to 1 point per minute?
After a few minutes, the Karmic Luck Points returned to 1 point per second.
"It seems that the person with such Karmic Luck isn't in a fixed location, or perhaps they're stuck at the 300-meter boundary of that Karmic Luck Radius?"
"Forget about him for now. As long as the Karmic Luck Radius increases and the coverage area expands, will I ever lack Karmic Luck Points again?"
"System, continue the Simulation!"
[Ding, would you like to start the Simulation by consuming 30 Karmic Luck Points?]
"Activate!"
[Ding, is it...?]
"Don't skip!"
[Having already reached the Fourth Pin of Martial Practitioner, the effects of the Qi and Blood Pill have become minimal. Fortunately, you still have the Divine Blood Pill, so your cultivation speed remains incredibly fast.]
[Seven days later, you consumed Wu Bai Divine Blood Pill, successfully breaking through to the Great Perfection of the Fifth Pin Blood Refining Realm. However, instead of continuing to cultivate the Overbearing Fist, you switched to cultivating the Cloud-Treading Steps, the Mysterious Jade Art, and the Mysterious Jade Hand.]
[You discover that Pang Qi's techniques are all extraordinary. The Mysterious Jade Art can greatly enhance physical strength. According to Pang Qi, if one cultivates the Mysterious Jade Art to Perfection, one can transform their entire skeleton into Mysterious Jade Bone.]
[Upon mastering the Mysterious Jade Hand to its Perfection, one becomes impervious to blades and spears, and even Treasure Artifact cannot harm one. Similarly, upon mastering the Cloud-Treading Steps technique to its Perfection, one can fly even before reaching the Grandmaster.]
[On the eighth day, Pang Qi died again. The golden worm flew out of Pang Qi's nostril and burrowed into the body of one of the jailers. Although you could have caught the worm, you didn't.]
[On the tenth day, your cultivation of the Cloud-Treading Steps, the Mysterious Jade Art, and the Mysterious Jade Hand has greatly improved. Adjust your state and quietly await the arrival of the man in black.]
[Late at night, the man in black arrived as scheduled. You used him to scare away the golden beetle, then forcefully killed the man in black. But this time, you didn't intend to escape the prison. Instead, you went to the prison gate and shouted outside, "Someone come and clean the floor."]
[Afterwards, you returned to your Prison, threw the black-clad man's body out, closed the cell door, and collapsed onto the cushion, closing your eyes to rest.]
[About half an hour later, Constable Zheng Qi, who had been missing for ten days, reappeared. He stared at the corpses on the ground with disbelief, his face filled with shock and fear at your ability to kill these men in black.]
[ Zheng Qi quickly disposed of the bodies of the men in black and the prison guards, and swiftly left the cell. However, you Perception a murderous intent emanating from Zheng Qi, though it vanished in an instant.]
Ling Yi frowned. Did Zheng Qi harbor murderous intent towards him? Why?
He was the Third Prince's man. Judging from Zheng Qi's previous words and actions, the Third Prince Liu Zheng did not want to die like this.
The fact that I, as a substitute for the deceased, am still alive should be more beneficial to the Third Prince.
[On August 22nd, 1208 of the Great Qian Calendar, the prison guards were replaced, but Tang Sanshan and Peng Tuohai survived because they hadn't been there the previous night, and Ling Yi saw them again.]
[Everything was as usual. Tang Sanshan brought himself food, and Peng Tuohai went to the second floor of the prison to deliver food to the other prisoners. While you were eating, Tang Sanshan subtly told you that Pang Qi's assets had been arranged elsewhere, and that you shouldn't worry.]
[August 26th, 1208 in the Great Qian Calendar. According to the original sentence for the Third Prince, today was the day he would be beheaded. But as you know, it's impossible for him to be beheaded.]
[As Zheng Qi and Tang San said before, you are the Third Prince. Even if you are to be executed, you should die in the imperial city. Dying in a small place like Sanhe County would be a disgrace to the royal family.]
Ling Yi had already undergone a Simulation memory session and had some understanding of what the Third Prince had done.
According to official accounts, the Third Prince attempted to assassinate Crown Prince Liu Qi and seize the position of Crown Prince, but mistakenly killed the Sixth Prince Liu Feng. The Emperor was furious and ordered the Third Prince to be arrested and executed Half Moon later.
The third prince, however, did not flee but instead voluntarily went to prison.
After that, Ling Yi was found by Zheng Qi. Because he discovered that Ling Yi looked almost exactly like the Third Prince, he came up with the idea of having Ling Yi be the Third Prince's scapegoat.
Ling Yi guessed that the misfortune that befell his original body's older brother was probably also Zheng Qi's doing.
There are probably many twists and turns in the process.
[As expected, no one mentioned going to the guillotine. At noon, the Imperial City Black Guard appeared, carrying out an imperial decree to escort you to the capital, where the Emperor would interrogate you before the palace.]
