CHAPTER 350: CHAPTER 293: TEMPORARY, REVISE LATER OUT OF LAZINESS._2

"Pay attention to this item, it’s best to get a few if possible." Having witnessed the effect of the Memory Release Device, he also wanted to obtain some different specialized abilities for himself.

"Damn it!"

Li Zheng sat under the ginkgo tree, looking up at the sky in silence.

The sky was crystal clear, a rare sight for Li Zheng, but he wasn’t in the mood to enjoy it.

"So, you’re telling me, I went to the hospital to get a diabetes test, and when they drew my blood, I transmigrated?"

Li Zheng’s eye twitched, as if the cheerful expression he had froze abruptly.

"But can someone explain to me why my Ninth Grade Golden Core is like this? Clearly, with a body that spikes the charts in every attribute, it ended up forming just a Ninth Grade Golden Core?"

"Are you kidding me?!"

He glanced again at his own attributes in the corner of his vision:

Root Bone: 10 (Whoa! Maxed Root Bone, quite sturdy... young man.)

Enlightenment: 10 (Whoa whoa! Maxed Enlightenment? Come here, let’s tackle a math problem...)

Divine Sense: 10 (Whoa whoa whoa! Maxed Divine Sense before Foundation Establishment? Then when Widow Xie next door takes a bath...)

Charm: 10 (Maxed Charm? Tsk, doesn’t look that impressive. Ugh, why is this lemon so sour?)

Opportunity: 10 (What does maxed Opportunity mean? Let’s put it this way, if you walk out today and don’t pick up something, it’s an injustice to this Opportunity, got it?)

Potential: 30.1 (30.1 Potential? With the max value at 10, that’s clearly an over-the-top stat! With this Potential value, you could form a First Grade Golden Core blindfolded, right? What? You only formed a Ninth Grade? Then never mind!)

Frustrated!

The more Li Zheng stared at this attribute panel, especially with the additional content in the brackets after each number, the more frustrated he felt!

Joining the ranks of the Transmigrators and becoming one of the chosen, only to start without a world-defying talent... oh... now that’s there, but why did the original owner execute it so poorly?

And isn’t soul transmigration supposed to come with the original owner’s memories?

Why didn’t I get them?

Li Zheng tapped his forehead, racking his brains in vain, unable to uncover any memory that didn’t belong to him, yet some embarrassing memories suddenly resurfaced.

His toes curled inside his shoes, almost carving out a three-bedroom apartment on the spot.

Li Zheng shook his head to calm himself, trying to cast aside the unpleasant memories, meticulously contemplating why the original owner squandered such divine skills.

Though he hadn’t been traversing for half a day, Li Zheng already figured that this transmigration landed him in a world similar to the single-player game "Immortal Cultivation Simulator" he was about to play in his previous life.

There are sects, cultivators, demon beasts, body cultivators, and even divine cultivators who cultivate a Divine Kingdom in the Palm!

However, this world does have some differences from the game; there’s the existence of "Empires."

Nonetheless, these Empires seem more like constructs established under the allowance of cultivation sects for better management of the mortal realm.

After all, a peaceful and stable mortal realm is necessary to provide these big sects with a continuous influx of new disciples.

Empire royalties do have cultivators, but they can only cultivate some second-rate heart methods, with the highest achievements being in the late Golden Core stage. To reach the Primordial Spirit stage, they need to be in a big sect’s good graces.

These second-rate heart methods were casually tossed to the Empire by the big sects, like throwing out trash.

Yet, even so, the Empire’s royalties relish in it.

Who wouldn’t want to live longer?

And the Golden Core Stage here parallels that in the game, categorized from First Grade to Ninth Grade according to the Spiritual Qi capacity of the Golden Core.

First Grade is the highest, Ninth Grade is the lowest.

First to Third Grades are called Upper Grade Golden Cores, Fourth to Sixth are Middle Grade, and Seventh to Ninth are Lower Grades.

Generally, any disciple recruited by a sect wouldn’t have too poor of a qualification.

Even if lacking in resources, one could at least form a Seventh or Eighth Grade, and reaching the Middle Grade’s sixth grade wouldn’t be unachievable.

But with the talent of Li Zheng’s current body, even while slacking, at least a Second Grade Golden Core should have been a walk in the park.

"Unless the original owner, during the initial stages of forming the core, had to interrupt due to external factors, resulting in forming a Ninth Grade Core."

Li Zheng idly let out some spiritual qi, knocking a few ginkgo nuts from the tree as he sorted through his current situation while eating.

"If it’s external factors, it could only mean some enemies showed up at the door."

"Considering the original owner was a cultivator, he surely was a sect disciple, perhaps... the Taiyi Sect?"

In the game "Immortal Cultivation Simulator," the opening scene is one of the major factions, "Taiyi Sect," being attacked, with the sect leader Rui Hongchang breaking through to First Grade Golden Core during the battle to repel powerful adversaries.

Then Rui charged out like a maddened War God, into a trap, the "Dragon Extinction Array," and suffered terrible defeat.

With the loss of the sect leader holding First Grade Golden Core power, Taiyi Sect was slaughtered, its disciples killed, injured, or fled.

The game itself is about a few escaped Outer Sect disciples of Taiyi Sect who, relying on some foundation brought along during escape, reform the sect and finally seek revenge.

The brainless and senseless game opening won’t be talked about; anyway, Li Zheng got interested in wanting to play this game purely because of its novel theme.

"Such a waste of a splendid talent, even stronger than ’Yan Shuangying’ in the Reincarnation Mod, yet only forming a Ninth Grade Golden Core..."

The situation gave Li Zheng a bit of a headache.

This start feels like someone invites him to dine at a five-star Michelin restaurant, only to serve several plates crafted beautifully but filled with dog shit, leaving him nauseous and sickened, yet somehow inexplicably amused.

This is the most frustrating part!

"Since I’m here, I must adapt. Reality stands before me; even with a Ninth Grade Golden Core, I must take it one step at a time."

Li Zheng tapped his temple and casually tossed another ginkgo nut into his mouth, crunching on it.

"Furthermore, it’s not like redemption is impossible. Although lacking memory makes it impossible to learn ’Profound Vagina Rebirth’ necessary for Taiyi Five Immortal Skills’ Golden Core Stage."

"But with my maxed Opportunity, acquiring a Profound Vagina Rebirth Pill with equivalent effects shouldn’t be difficult."

"If I recall correctly, shortly after the game starts, there’s a hunter in a village who finds the second senior brother’s stone box, which contains a Profound Vagina Rebirth Pill."

"Perhaps I should check out that village..."

With this thought, Li Zheng rose from under the ginkgo tree, brushed his robe, and watched a leaf slip off his shoulder to the ground.

Sunlight poured onto him unobstructed, casting a swath of brilliance, enhancing his transcendental temperament and perfect visage.

Even the simple action of brushing his sleeve appeared pleasing to the eye, like an immortal descending to earth.

Suddenly, Li Zheng’s action of brushing his sleeve halted, freezing him in place:

"Wait a moment... Where does that hunter live again, and what’s his name?"

Remaining in his frozen stance, Li Zheng pondered deeply for a long time, unable to recall which village the hunter who found the second senior brother’s stone box hailed from.

As a "grind master," except when the game has a massive update, Li Zheng usually committed himself to playing just one save file to the extreme.

This meant that throughout his "Immortal Cultivation Simulator" career, Li Zheng only played under ten save files.

Yet, each had an extraordinarily lengthy game time!

The longest one approaching nearly ten thousand days!

Even so, due to his limited full process experience in the game, many details remained somewhat blurry.

For instance, the game’s first event at the beginning since the location occurred only once throughout the game, Li Zheng couldn’t recall the place’s name.

"Tch, Enlightenment 10?"

Li Zheng dejectedly sat back down, ruefully glancing at the attribute panel, "With such high Enlightenment, why can’t it enhance my memories from the past life?"

I need...

What’s the use of this high Enlightenment?!

"Sigh, without finding that village, I can’t obtain the second senior brother’s stone box. Without the stone box, I can’t get the Profound Vagina Rebirth Pill, and without the Profound Vagina Rebirth Pill, I can’t start over; without starting over, I’m stuck with this Ninth Grade Golden Core to wear out slowly..."

Li Zheng clutched his hair in frustration, "How could my fate be so miserable! I’m a transmigrator, aren’t I?! Why?!
