Chapter 15 In this life, I am the male protagonist of a cool novel!
Xiao Hao quickly cast aside this unrealistic idea.
Instead, he seriously considered which reward to choose.
After some elimination, only two options remained.
Qi Refining Seventh Layer Cultivation and First Rank High Grade Alchemist Realm.
In this cultivation world where the strong prey on the weak, cultivation is the Foundation of everything, there is no doubt about that.
However, Jianghu is not just about fighting and killing; it also involves human relationships.
Even if he chose cultivation, it seemed to offer little help for the upcoming simulation.
"What if I choose cultivation and then take the opportunity to escape the Initial Saint Demonic Sect?" Xiao Hao suddenly had a bold thought.
But he quickly dismissed this idea.
The Initial Saint Demonic Sect has countless powerful individuals, and he might not be able to escape.
If he failed, and with his cultivation, he wouldn't be able to pass Sun Xun Cai's test, wouldn't that be a dead end?
"I have the System, so it's better not to take risks. It's better to proceed steadily, step by step!"
"Compared to increasing cultivation, Alchemy Realm is more important!"
"If I had the Realm of a First Rank High Grade Alchemist when I first met Yao Tianhai, perhaps I could have gained his approval."
"Thus, I could gradually open up the situation!"
"Even if I don't get Yao Tianhai's approval, as long as I can advance further and become a Second Rank Alchemist, I will have a chance to be promoted to Elder!"
"By then, I'll be able to escape the tracking of the Magic Treasure and openly flee the Initial Saint Demonic Sect!"
With this thought, he no longer hesitated and chose the Dao of Alchemy Realm.
Boom!
A vast amount of Alchemy knowledge surged into his mind, making his head buzz and almost causing him to faint.
It took him a great deal of effort to refine the knowledge in his mind.
At this time, it was already dark outside.
"Phew~ I truly have mastered the Dao of Alchemy!"
"As expected of the System, it's truly amazing!"
This wasn't the end.
Xiao Hao bit his finger again, using his blood as ink, and wrote furiously on the bedding.
He carefully wrote down all the pitfalls he encountered in his previous life.
Only then did he spend three Spirit Stones to purchase one simulation attempt.
"System, activate!"
[Cultivation Simulator activating]
[Initial Saint Demonic Sect, Disciple dormitory. You suddenly fainted and slowly woke up after a long while.]
[You discovered that you Transmigrated.]
[You were not surprised by this...]
[You began to organize the original owner's memories.]
[Soon, you realized something was wrong.]
[The original owner had never Cultivated, yet inexplicably possessed Qi Refining First Layer Cultivation!]
[He also Cultivated a powerful Earth Rank Cultivation Technique!]
[Moreover, he had an impressive Alchemy Realm!]
[You realized that this was no coincidence, and there was a problem with the original owner's memories...]
[You searched around and found blood-written characters on the bedding.]
[You discovered that these blood-written characters were not from this world, but from your previous life's Blue Star characters!]
[You were shocked beyond measure.]
[You suppressed the shock in your heart and began to browse the blood-written characters.]
[You learned of Sun Xun Cai's methods...]
[You learned of the Initial Saint Demonic Sect's conspiracy...]
[You learned of Wang Han and Liu Buxin's upcoming schemes...]
[You learned of the Sun Family's schemes...]
[You learned that you were playing both sides and would die a miserable death...]
[You realized that the owner who wrote these blood-written characters was probably the one behind the scenes who brought you here...]
[You won over Xia Ning霜...]
[You evaded Sun Xun Cai's inspection.]
[You rejected Liu Buxin and Wang Han.]
[You attracted Yao Ling.]
[Under Yao Ling's guidance, you arrived at the Hall of Alchemy's main hall for the new Disciple trial.]
[You deliberately failed the first time you condensed Dan Fire.]
[You barely succeeded the second time you condensed Dan Fire.]
[In the astonished gazes of the crowd, you voluntarily dispersed your Dan Fire and attempted to condense it a third time.]
[You successfully condensed Dan Fire, and its quality far surpassed the Dan Fire you condensed last time, causing discussion among the crowd.]
[You became the focus of this new Disciple trial.]
[The trial ended, and after testing, you ranked second.]
[You heard Yao Tianhai's sigh of emotion.]
"Kid, although you only have a Five Elements miscellaneous Spiritual Root, your talent in the Dao of Alchemy is quite good. I think highly of you!" ]
[You saw Yao Ling looking at you with a surprised expression.]
[You saw Liu Buxin and Wang Han furious and roaring in impotence.]
[You saw Sun Yuanxuan looking at you with a wary expression, staring intently.]
[You successfully became a Disciple of Hundred Refinements Peak...]
[On your first day in the Hall of Alchemy, you were suppressed and targeted by the Old Disciple who brought you in.]
[You deliberately feigned a pitiful yet unyielding demeanor.]
[You attracted Yao Ling's attention and were called out by her alone, where she taught you Alchemy.]
[You had already known Yao Ling's general personality based on the descriptions in the blood-written characters, and easily managed her.]
[You gained Yao Ling's favor.]
[You told Yao Ling the Legend of the Human Ancestor.]
[You both had a very pleasant conversation.]
[Yao Ling proactively told you that she would come to teach you again next month.]
[You readily agreed.]
[In the first month, you outwardly acted subservient in the Law Enforcement Hall.]
[In reality, you secretly focused your energy on Cultivating, and your cultivation Breakthrough to Qi Refining Second Layer.]
[In the second month, under Yao Ling's guidance, you Breakthrough to become a First Rank Low Grade Alchemist.]
[Yao Ling marveled at your Alchemy talent.]
[You officially graduated from apprenticeship under the astonished gazes of all the Disciples.]
[In the third month, your Alchemy attainments progressed rapidly, and under the watchful eyes of countless fellow Disciples, you Breakthrough to become a First Rank Medium Grade Alchemist.]
[Everyone looked at you as if they were looking at a monster.]
[Wu Yong and the Old Disciple found out that you had an ordinary background, yet they still did not dare to offend you. Instead, they called you brother and tried to curry favor with you in every way.]
[Your name even reached Yao Tianhai's ears.]
[In that month, relying on the official Disciple's stipend, your cultivation Breakthrough to Qi Refining Third Layer, leaving your fellow Disciples far behind.]
[You were highly respected among the Outer Sect Disciples and earned the title "Little Pill King." ]
"Goodness, what a cool protagonist's story." Xiao Hao felt a secret thrill.
He was so amazing even in the System.
When he reached this part of the story in reality, wouldn't he be even more amazing?
[In the fourth month, Yao Ling came to teach you Alchemy.]
[Seeing your progress, she felt a little ashamed.]
"Junior Brother, your talent is truly too astonishing. I am only a First Rank Medium Grade Alchemist myself, and I'm afraid I won't be able to teach you anymore in the future." ]
[You smiled slightly, your smile making people feel as if they were basking in a spring breeze.]
"Senior Sister, why belittle yourself? I was able to reach this point entirely thanks to Senior Sister's teachings! To be with Senior Sister is already a great honor for me." ]
"If Senior Sister doesn't mind, you can always come to me in the future, and we can research the Dao of Alchemy together!" ]
[Yao Ling's pretty face instantly turned red.]
[She vaguely understood what you meant.]
[But she did not refuse. Instead, she lowered her head and let out a barely perceptible soft hum.]
[Your relationship, unknowingly, drew one step closer.]
[In the fifth month, your relationship with Yao Ling grew better and better, and you would gather every few days.]
[On this day, Xia Ning霜 found you.]
[You accepted Xia Ning霜's gift of gratitude, and then righteously told her that you already had someone in your heart and asked her not to come to you again in the future.]
[You saw Xia Ning霜 heartbroken, questioning you whether you disliked her because of her humble family background.]
[You shook your head, saying that she was a good girl and would definitely meet a better man.]
[Xia Ning霜 left, looking back three times with each step.]
Xiao Hao couldn't help but recall a classic text from his previous life when he saw this.
A blessing in disguise.
Although Xia Ning霜 lost love, at least she kept her life.
[In the tenth month, you and Yao Ling were already inseparable. Everyone in the Hall of Alchemy knew that you were a couple.]
[You found that your Alchemy Realm was difficult to improve in the short term.]
[So you devoted all your energy to improving your cultivation, Breakthrough to Qi Refining Fifth Layer.]
[On this day, Yao Ling told you that her father had heard about your relationship with her.]
[Her father asked her to convey a message to you, wanting to meet you.]
Xiao Hao was a little excited.
This was because he keenly noticed that Yao Tianhai's attitude towards him in this life was completely different from the previous one.
Not only did he meet him more than a year earlier, but his attitude also softened considerably.
Could it be that he had gained his approval?
[The next day, under Yao Ling's guidance, you arrived at the back mountain of Hundred Refinements Peak.]
[In a secluded Immortal Cave, you met Yao's father—Yao Tianhai.]
[Yao Tianhai examined your talent and showed disdain when he discovered that you had a C-grade Five Elements Spiritual Root.]
