Chapter 55: The Second Human Tool With Nothing to Live For

Pooh!

Qin Jiao suddenly thought of a certain Spirit Sword Sect Holy Maiden who made her gnash her teeth in hatred. She was only 19 years old, but she was already at the second layer of the Foundation Establishment stage.

Qin Jiao was frustrated. If she had cultivated in the giant bronze gate since she was young, coupled with her innate spirit body and her own immortal cultivation root bone…

Moreover, she did not need to share her spiritual power to nurture the old granny…

She might be able to reach Foundation Establishment at the age of 15!

“Damn! Why are you thinking about this? I have an Immortal Cultivation Simulator. Isn’t it certain that I can surpass Chen Qianxue? She’s just a Holy Maiden of the Spirit Sword Sect. What else is special about her?”

Qin jiao swept away the distracting thoughts in her mind.

She observed her surroundings.

Suddenly!

Her gaze was attracted to a certain spot, and her breathing became less hurried.

“This is!”

Following her gaze, she saw a plant with a strange shape growing on the ground.

This plant seemed to be about the same size as rice. Its shape was extremely strange, and its entire body actually presented a bright red color.

It was exceptionally eye-catching.

There was a green fruit hanging at the top. The fruit was about the size of a grape and was white in color.

Seeing this object, Qin Jiao almost cried out in surprise.

“It’s Soul-severing Grass!!”

Qin Jiao had learned alchemy from her grandmother for a long time, so she naturally had to know a lot of spirit herbs to refine pills. Qin Jiao had already memorized thousands of spirit herbs in her heart.

Among them, there were ordinary spirit herbs and rare spirit herbs that were rarely seen in a thousand years.

The Soul-severing Grass in front of her was extremely rare. It was so rare that one might not find it in a thousand years. It was also incomparably precious.

If she were to pluck it and sell it to some discerning Immortal cultivators… It could be sold for at least a few hundred middle-grade spirit stones!

The Qin Family’s entire fortune was only so-so.

However, the next moment, Qin Jiao’s attention was attracted by something else. She noticed that not far from the Soul-severing Grass, there was also a very strange-looking spirit herb. Immediately, her eyes widened, and her pupils were trembling.

“Primordial Immortal Ginseng?!”

Her gaze shifted to another place again. The cool air in the huge bronze door was almost sucked dry by her.

“Golden Lingzhi!”

“Moon Tree!”

“…”

With just a glance, she found dozens of extremely precious spirit herbs.

Moreover, Qin Jiao also found that some of the spirit herbs looked extraordinary, but she did not seem to recognize them.

Were these spirit herbs not recorded in the ancient records?

Or was it just that she had not seen the corresponding ancient records?

There was only one thought in her mind —

I’m rich!

If I pack all these spiritual herbs and take them away, then there’s a high chance that I’ll be able to get a few of these spiritual herbs during this simulation of life’s rewards, right?

Qin Jiao was just about to run over and put the spirit herbs into her bag when she took her first step.

Her expression suddenly changed!

Alarm bells rang in her heart!

“Not good! It’s over!”

She was unable to communicate with the old granny. With her cultivation of the first layer of the Foundation Establishment stage, she was unable to see where there was an array formation and where there was no array formation in the world inside the bronze door.

This was fatal.

[You triggered a killing array. You didn’t even realize how you were killed before you lost all consciousness. Perhaps the array formation inside the bronze door is like the air in a bag of potato chips.]

[You’re dead!]

[Age: 25 years, 09 months, 18 days.]

…

Qinghe County.

In an inn.

Qin Jiao lay on the bed helplessly. Her legs kept shaking, and her eyes lost their luster. It was as if she had lost her ideal life and became a salted fish.

“Spirit herbs, my spirit herbs, they’re all gone…”

“They’re all gone…”

“Ah!!”

“I’m so angry!!”

She turned over and buried her face in the quilt. After suffocating herself for a long time, she finally calmed down and sat up again.

She hated how she did not study the Dao of array formation more when she was in Zhengxin Palace?

If she did not need the reminder of the old granny, she would have been able to discover the array formation inside the giant door.

Then she would not have been killed by the array formation.

Then… She would be able to plunder wantonly inside!

Damn it!!

However, who could she blame for this situation? Qin Jiao sadly realized that she could only blame herself, but she could not possibly slap herself, right?

“Sigh… Tomorrow, I’ll learn the Dao of array formation from Senior!”

The ‘Senior’ Qin Jiao was referring to now…

Naturally, it was the old granny she carried with her.

…

[The person you invited, Qin Jiao, had lived for 25 years, 09 months, and 18 days in this simulation of Immortal cultivation. You will receive the following rewards –]

[Reward 1: 15 years of pill refining experience (Qin Jiao’s pill refining experience from the age of 10 to the age of 25)]

[Reward 2: Fire Silkworm Silk Undergarment (Qin Jiao’s close-fitting clothes before she died)]

[Reward 3: Ordinary Alchemy Furnace (literal meaning)]

Qin Jiao did not activate any achievements this time. Moreover, the trajectory of her simulated Immortal cultivation life this time was really too similar to the last time.

As a result, the calculation reward did not look very good.

Bai Yi immediately chose Reward 1.

There was no other way… Among the three rewards, this seemed to be the only one that was more normal.

Other than that, there was nothing much.

Especially that silk undergarment. He was not some sort of freak with a fetish.

What was its use?

After receiving experience in alchemy, Bai Yi felt that as long as he was given an alchemy furnace and some spirit herbs, he could completely change his job to become an alchemist.

Bai Yi shook his head. It seemed that he could not count on Qin Jiao for today’s rewards.

His gaze landed on Chen Qianxue’s side.

Since Chen Qianxue and Qin Jiao entered the Immortal Cultivation Simulator at the same time.

On Chen Qianxue’s side, ot had only been 20 years.

[Age 27, Chen Qianxue of the Sky-holding Sect didn’t choose to become the disciple of the Master like her previous simulated immortal cultivation. Instead, she brought Hou Yingyun and chose to become the disciple of an Elder of the Sky-holding Sect who guarded the Demon-sealing Tower. This made the Elder extremely surprised. He had not taken in a disciple for hundreds of years. However, Chen Qianxue’s sincerity moved him. He accepted Chen Qianxue and Hou Yingyun as his disciples.]

[Because no one dared to approach this place, some of the Elders in the sect did not know that the elder guarding the Demon-sealing Tower had two more disciples. Among them was Elder Yue, who was anxious to find a solution because of the backlash from the cultivation technique.]

[Age 50, Chen Qianxue and Hou Yingyun relied on their good cultivation mentality and extraordinary talent to have their Master teach them everything. Taking this opportunity, Chen Qianxue pointed out that the seal of the Demon-sealing Tower seemed to have loosened, and her Master specially inspected it.]

[Chen Qianxue’s Master did not find any clues, which made her feel that it was unlikely.]

[Age 80, Chen Qianxue once again asked her Master to check if the seal on the Demon-sealing Tower was loosened. Master felt that his disciple was being overly cautious, but he still checked it.]

[To think that Chen Qianxue was right!]

[The seal is loosened!!]
