Simulated immortality allows me to calculate talent stats.

Calm down and quiet your excitement.

[The questions that my senior brother can think of, you naturally understand as well.]

[To resolve this calamity.]

【Do not! 】

[Let alone solving it, simply resisting it is a predetermined fate.]

[This requires you to comprehend your own unique path...and the variables.]

[By doing so, they can break free from predetermined fate and gain a chance to struggle and survive.]

At that time, you relied on "escaping one's own limitations."

[They may escape certain death, but they will still find themselves in a perilous situation.]

[To fight against near-death experiences in exchange for a sliver of hope.]

This is the true essence of unlimited backup plans.

[It might be a miserable and dangerous journey, but you just won't die.]

Now, the structure and design of the path are complete; all that remains is for one to hear the Dao and fully comprehend it.

[Wait until you truly understand the path of change.]

Your life will also come to an end.

There's no time to return to the mortal realm.

"What a pity..."

[Your slight regret and reluctance.]

[I previously heard my senior brother say that he already knew the way to leave the underworld.]

[The first thought that comes to mind.]

[We're just waiting for the next settlement to complete the long-term collection task for black-label terms.]

[The entry for "The heavens are already?" has been completed.]

【Then……】

[Nature is the great and wise teacher whose life is nearing its end, carrying his dark epithets with him and his like-minded companions...]

[Let's try again!]

The situation is clearly no longer in your hands.

To return to the human world, one must resolve what is destined.

To resolve what is predetermined, one must comprehend the path of change.

To comprehend the path of change, one must wait until old age to hear the truth.

He who heard the Way in the morning... died.

There's no chance to try again.

Seeing you lost in troubled thought, the eldest brother couldn't help but inquire with concern.

After you expressed your resentment...

The eldest disciple was slightly taken aback.

Do you want to give it your all one last time before you die?

He was deeply impressed by your idea.

I was originally thinking about how to save you from the end.

Unexpectedly, you hadn't even considered this option.

The senior brother has shared his thoughts with you, hoping you will calmly and carefully weigh the pros and cons.

You glanced at him in surprise.

[I didn't expect that your senior brother had already arranged an escape route for you.]

Unfortunately, the state of "earning enlightenment in the morning" must be activated just before death.

[Death here does not include accidental killings, being trapped in a deadly situation, etc.]

Only when a complete life cycle is completed, reaching old age and nearing its end, can the conditions be triggered.

Otherwise, according to your operating method.

Pairing "surviving a great calamity" with "an ominous old age."

[One simulation can unlock the Path to Enlightenment at least twice.]

Not to mention thinking of other ways to exploit the bug.

Therefore, activating the "Morning Enlightenment" state almost certainly signifies the end of the simulation.

[Why "almost"? Because you've left open the possibility that the future might change.]

[What if I ever get an incredibly powerful mechanic?]

[It wouldn't be unreasonable to directly stabilize the state of enlightenment in the morning.]

Let our thoughts return to the present moment.

[Your resentment stems not only from wanting to use the dark and grievous phrase to return to the human world and vent the frustration of being chased and murdered before.]

An even more important factor is weighting.

The task of collecting the black combination keywords is complete, and it has almost exhausted your weight.

[If you want to be included in the settlement after the simulation ends.]

[Extract high-level talent attributes.]

The weight must be increased.

Just like in the last simulation, you exist as insignificant as an ant.

[They boldly broke through the capital, stormed into the imperial city, and slew Taiyuan with their swords.]

[This is solely the weighting effect of this action.]

[You were lucky enough to draw the black keyword "inferiority overthrows superiors".]

Therefore, your resentment, besides venting your frustrations, is largely related to power and authority.

As for increasing one's influence in the underworld...

You truly don't have that ability.

Otherwise, they could restart the cycle of reincarnation or seize power in the underworld...

The weighting must be astonishing.

[Your senior brother is powerless to change your resentment.]

[In the thirty-ninth year, you, wandering alone in the Land of the End, encounter your senior brother once more.]

The two of you explored the underworld, exchanging insights into the mysteries of cultivation.

[The eldest brother's delightful discovery.]

[Through our shared spiritual practice, we've finally reached a point of resonance.]

You truly are a late bloomer, unleashing an extraordinary brilliance.

Even in terms of innate talent and comprehension on the path of idealism, she is no less than him.

[By reflecting on each other and comprehending profound mysteries, he was able to accelerate his mental cultivation.]

You certainly won't miss this opportunity.

[It has been learned that the eldest brother's path of idealism is connected to the underworld.]

The higher one's level of spiritual cultivation, the more one can understand the true nature of the underworld.

Therefore, you have been cultivating your mind with your senior brother during this time.

[At the fortieth year, at the age of fifty-six, one knows one's destiny.]

[A scene unchanging year after year, a place of utter, deathly silence.]

You suddenly stopped your cultivation.

[He stood suspended in mid-air, his black robe fluttering, a look of anticipation on his face.]

The settlement period is approaching.

[Ding! The ten-year period has ended. Shall we settle our life's score and draw talent attributes?]

[I hear my true talent resonating within me.]

Your heterochromatic eyes are bright and clear, with a mysterious light shimmering within them.

[A clear, still mirror, with jade-like eyes holding golden pupils, evokes a contradictory sense of mystery and enigma.]

【Settle!】

Without any hesitation, you immediately chose to settle the transaction.

【"bite!"】

["Alone I walk into the courtyard in the twilight snow, amidst the chaos, the very will of Yama is revealed. Facing calamity, I comprehend the vicissitudes of life; after the rain, the sky clears."]

[Talent attribute extraction in progress...]

[A profound, ethereal, mysterious, and unfathomable darkness spreads out, creating invisible and traceless ripples.]

[The long-term black keyword collection quest is in progress...]

[The weighting criteria are met.]

【"bite!"】

[Starting to extract long-term black talent modifiers...]

In the comfortable and warm bed, Wen Yu covered his head with the blanket for a greater sense of security.

It's so gloomy, so incredibly gloomy.

It's destined that these monstrous things will all come out.

It directly and irrationally defines death as a concept.

How can we play like this?

Wen Yu didn't even dare to let his thoughts run wild.

He feared that the power of the Heavenly Evolution would detect his rebellious thoughts.

This leads to a calamity, and fate is sealed.

Go to hell!

Keep hiding!

He now has an urge to go back to the mass grave and bury himself there.

"Ding! 』

Extract the black talent attribute "Death".

Wen Yu completely ignored the notification sound and focused solely on playing dead.

[The black talent modifier "Death"...]

[You are looking at the extracted terms.]

Not surprising; it was expected.

[The characters "苍" (cāng), "天" (tiān), and "已" (yǐ) are all present

[Isn't it just a matter of "death"?]

Suddenly.

[The secrets of the black talent attribute "Death" are now in your hands.]

[You seem to have completely grasped the essence of death.]
