Chapter 57 – You call this ‘a hand of God’
A week passed, and the simulation attempts were refreshed!
Jiang Yifeng returned to his room and silently chanted, "Start simulation!"
[Consumed 1 simulation attempt, remaining attempts: 0]
[Drawing Blue Talent costs 100,000 Energy Value, drawing Purple Talent costs 1,000,000 Energy Value. Please choose!]
"Draw Purple Talent."
[Ding, 1,000,000 Energy Value deducted, drawing Purple Talent, remaining Energy Value: 3 billion...]
[Congratulations, Host, you have obtained the talent: Hand of God.]
[Hand of God]: Key items will periodically appear in your hand.
Jiang Yifeng fell into deep thought.
Isn't Hand of God a term from Go?
Never mind, it's not important.
But judging by the talent description, it should be somewhat useful.
He couldn't help but feel a bit excited.
He immediately looked at the simulation panel.
[Simulation No. 18 begins.]
[You realize you are already in the simulation.]
[Seeing that it's still early, you decide not to leave Green Hills City immediately, planning to leave at night when no one is around.]
[In the evening, after dinner, you tidy up and prepare to leave the Jiang Family Mansion under the cover of night.]
[Just then, you hear the maid Little Peach in your courtyard crying out.]
[You are about to go check when suddenly, a soft object appears in your hand.]
[Looking at the object in your hand, your expression changes slightly.]
[Isn't this Little Peach's dudou!]
[Before you can recover, you see Little Peach running towards you, crying.]
[As she runs, she shouts, "There's a pervert!"]
[Looking at the dudou in your hand, you feel a bit guilty and quickly put it into your storage ring.]
[Little Peach finally reaches you.]
[You ask her what happened.]
[Little Peach tells you everything, saying she was about to sleep when she suddenly felt her dudou disappear.]
[Your heart races, thinking of the dudou that just appeared in your hand.]
[Suddenly, you recall the talent you drew in this simulation.]
[Could this dudou be one of the key items mentioned by Hand of God?]
[Suppressing the urge to curse, you first calm Little Peach down.]
[It takes until midnight for Little Peach to settle down and go back to sleep.]
[After that, you finally have time to analyze what happened.]
[You figure it must be the talent at work.]
[Having experienced many simulations, you know some talents are quite unusual.]
[It seems the key items mentioned by this talent are different from what you expected.]
[You can't help but think: calling this talent Hand of God is a bit too much!]
[Without thinking too much, you leave Green Hills City that night.]
[However, along the way, various items keep appearing in your hand.]
[There are dudous of all colors, as well as cucumbers, eggplants—what the heck!]
[And fire sticks, what are these!]
[Suddenly, you think of some possibilities.]
[You feel deeply disdainful.]
[You quickly find a river and wash your hands thoroughly.]
[Only after entering the Evergreen Mountain Range, far from people, do the strange items stop appearing in your hand.]
[This makes you feel much more at ease.]
[On the third day, you adjust your emotions.]
[You start thinking about what to do next.]
[Because of this infuriating Hand of God talent, you worry about encountering Bai Ruoxue and causing more trouble.]
[Should you still hitch a ride with Bai Ruoxue to the Endless Sea?]
[In the end, you shake your head, deciding not to risk it.]
[If this talent affects Bai Ruoxue, who is at the Eighth Layer of Tribulation, this simulation would likely end.]
[To be safe, you decide not to contact Bai Ruoxue in this simulation.]
[You glance at the ruins of the Heavenly Profound Temple and clear them out, burying the bones.]
[After that, you start heading southward.]
[This time, you need to go to the Endless Sea on your own.]
[Although you might encounter dangers along the way, it's better than offending Bai Ruoxue at the Eighth Layer of Tribulation.]
[You also considered not going to the Endless Sea, but you need to use the Heavenly Thunder under Lu Wuya's formation to temper your body.]
[Therefore, you need to enhance your formation skills to find the exact location of the Heavenly Thunder and guide it out through the formation.]
[The best place to quickly improve your formation theory is the Endless Sea, where you can get close to the sealing formation.]
[Of course, the Desert of Death, Valley of Flames, and Forest of Ten Thousand Swords might also have sealing formations, but you are sure that the Mystic Turtle in the Endless Sea is friendly.]
[There, you can safely improve your formation knowledge.]
[In the first year, you don't know how far you've traveled.]
[You avoid populated areas to prevent unnecessary trouble due to the Hand of God talent.]
[But you still encounter many troubles.]
[Several times, female Immortal Slaves find you, and you are holding their dudous when they do.]
[Fortunately, your cultivation is strong, and most of the Immortal Slaves stationed outside are only at the Foundation Establishment stage, not your match.]
[This year, rumors of the Dudou Immortal spread among the people.]
[In the second year, a Nascent Soul stage female Immortal Slave's dudou appears in your hand.]
[You have a bloody battle with her.]
[Although she is at a higher stage and knows various spells,]
[You practice both Divine Dao and Immortal Martial Arts, with a stronger foundation.]
[After three days of battle, you exhaust her to death.]
[But you also suffer serious injuries.]
[In the third year, you are hunted.]
[The battle with the female Immortal Slave the previous year is known to the Immortal Spirit Sect, and they send many experts to hunt you down.]
[Fortunately, the Immortal Spirit Sect doesn't take you too seriously, sending people mostly at the Core Formation to Nascent Soul stages.]
[After many battles, you reach the edge of the Endless Sea with some close calls.]
[The Immortal Slaves stop chasing you as you enter the Endless Sea's territory.]
[You don't know if they think you are doomed or if they also fear stepping into the beast's territory.]
[You reach the edge of the Endless Sea, touching the seawater, but the Mystic Turtle does not appear.]
[You are puzzled.]
[When you came with Bai Ruoxue, the Mystic Turtle appeared from the water from afar.]
[You wonder, "Is it because my strength is too low to attract the Mystic Turtle's attention?"]
[Days pass with no movement.]
[You decide not to wait and start shouting into the Endless Sea, even launching spiritual energy attacks to attract the Mystic Turtle's attention.]
[Sure enough, soon, the Mystic Turtle's massive body emerges from the sea.]
[The Mystic Turtle looks angry.]
[Without asking, it opens its mouth and sucks you in, your body flying uncontrollably towards its mouth.]
