After the time travel, my cheat program disappeared.

Then Shi Yan grabbed both of their wrists, saying, "What's so good about it?"

But... that's what they say.

Before the breakthrough, just in case, Shi Yan still fed the little Pixiu to its fill.

The girl curled up in the arms of the sword spirit girl, her toes occasionally twitching gently, with an expression of perfect contentment.

Sitting cross-legged in the center of the hall inside the "Thirty-Three Sword Pavilion," Shi Yan placed one hand on the white jade-like floor.

She couldn't help but smile bitterly; what kind of situation was this?

He was trapped in the "Thirty-Three Sword Pavilion" because he had not broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, and in order to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, he had to refine the "Thirty-Three Sword Pavilion".

What's this all about?

Despite his thoughts, Shi Yan took a deep breath and resolutely clicked "confirm."

She placed the "Thirty-Three Sword Pavilion" icon in the "Consumable Natural Treasures" section.

Almost instantly, she felt her soul being pulled away, and she began to float infinitely upwards, looking down at the entire sword mound.

The "Thirty-Three Sword Pavilions" has been reduced to a jade piece the size of a fingernail.

The clouds and mist above the "Sword Tomb" outlined a pair of deep, dark eyes that met Shi Yan's gaze.

Shi Yan had never felt such a magnificent aura even from Wen Ruya.

Nascent Soul Realm? Tribulation Transcending Realm? Enlightenment Realm? Feather Transformation Realm? Ascension to Immortality Realm?

No...none of those.

That was the remaining consciousness of an immortal who descended to the mortal world a thousand years ago.

She looked at Shi Yan, her lips slightly parted.

Shi Yan felt that those eyes were both strange and familiar.

Before she could continue thinking, her consciousness was forcefully pulled back from her body, and the breakthrough... began.

Even in the game, if you possess "undying Dao heart", you will still fail to break through your realm using fragments of Dao spiritual energy.

but--

In reality, this bug that caused the problem was subtly fixed.

Shi Yan had a strong premonition and confidence that he...could not lose!

"The emptiness that is not emptiness is true emptiness—"

Fragments of the Great Dao that do not contain any trace of the Great Dao's spiritual energy.

"The existence that is not truly existent is wondrous existence—"

The "Thirty-Three Sword Pavilion" contains traces of immortals... yet her whereabouts are nowhere to be found.

The sky is distant, its colors muted.

Shi Yan sat there quietly, watching the whole world collapse inch by inch, starting from the edge of the "Sword Tomb".

She knew that it was because she had refined the Thirty-Three Sword Pavilion, which was the core of the Sword Tomb, causing the great collapse.

She even saw the nervous expressions on the faces of the two girls beside her, who seemed eager to protect her.

Raise your head and gaze at the stars.

This love... was just a fleeting dream.

This dream...is an eternal lingering trace.

There is neither other nor myself...the mind is empty...wonderful existence.

"Foundation Building Realm——"

break!

The background of the breakthrough panel in front of Shi Yan had changed into a rather elegant little figure.

On the panel, two brightly colored "Defy Fate" signs slowly appeared, one on the left and one on the right.

"Having seven orifices in one's heart" and "being born with a seductive nature"

| Up |

| Level |

"Nine orifices exquisite"

"Damn it."

Part 84. "Innate Allure"—Is it something you can choose not to select?! [Third Update]

What lies before Shi Yan.

It is a background panel that is different from the Heavenly Dao Foundation Building, Earthly Dao Foundation Building, and Human Dao Foundation Building.

An incense burner.

A wisp of smoke rises gently.

And... against a backdrop resembling a starry sky, a pair of open eyes.

A genuine display of 'brilliance like a constellation of stars'.

It is clearly formed by the convergence of nebulae.

Shi Yan felt that those eyes were very 'lively,' very vivid, and very...familiar.

Shi Yan vaguely felt that the other person was looking at him through the background panel, but how could that be?

The teacher said it had been tested.

This attribute panel is only visible to the user; it's something that only appears in their field of vision.

After successfully establishing the foundation, the master said that his mind was as calm as smoke.

It was as if all greed and anger dissipated with that wisp of smoke.

Have I successfully completed the "Foundation Building of the Great Dao"?

The master said he didn't know, and it seemed he didn't know either.

He had no idea what the so-called "Great Way" was.

Moreover... it seems that he didn't even use that "Fragment of Great Dao Spiritual Energy". The true vessel that enabled him to break through was still the "Thirty-Three Sword Pavilion".

Immediately, Shi Yan's tranquil state of mind, as serene as a wisp of smoke, was shattered by the two brightly colored "Defy Fate" icons that appeared on the left and right sides of the panel.

On the left is the upgrade of one's original innate fortune of "seven orifices in the heart" to "nine orifices exquisite".

On the right is a new acquired fortune – "Innate Charm".

"Damn it..." Shi Yan couldn't help but give the middle finger to the attribute panel in front of him.

Although it is known that "defying fate" can bring good fortune, it is often related to the materials used when breaking through realms and the character's experiences.

But... looking at the huge words "naturally alluring," Shi Yan still felt like someone had written the character "正" (zhèng, meaning upright/correct) on her thigh.

Wasn't it just that I practiced dual cultivation a tiny bit more often when I broke through my cultivation realm earlier?

As for giving yourself an option, specifically to tell yourself if you've been doing well lately?

Don't even think about it.

It's impossible to be "naturally charming"; I would never choose someone who is "naturally charming" in this lifetime.

He has already won the favor of so many girls in this lifetime.

To live up to their expectations is already an incredibly difficult task, so how could I possibly choose "naturally alluring"?

Given other options, I'd even choose something like "groping hands"...

Shi Yan's thoughts suddenly stalled.

This seems even less appealing than "naturally alluring".

Cough cough... Let's try again.

Even if I were to choose something like "always smiling," which is a useless acquired fortune, I would never choose "naturally charming."

Moreover, compared to "naturally alluring," the choice one had to make was "having seven orifices in one's heart," which was already an extraordinary innate talent that had been upgraded to "nine orifices of exquisite beauty."

Even a fool would choose "Nine Apertures Exquisite".

As she spoke, Shi Yan reached out and gently pointed at "Innate Allure".

Ahem... Master said he could vouch for it with Ming Zhongqing's hair; he was just looking at the instructions.

I'm really just looking.

She just wanted to know what made this "naturally alluring" beauty worthy of being placed alongside "exquisitely beautiful," even though they were of the same quality and the same color.

Shi Yan clicked on the introduction of "naturally alluring".

She remembered that in the game before her reincarnation, "natural charm" only made it easier for players to gain favor with other players, and at the same time... the threshold for certain special interactions would also be lowered.

In other words... it's easier to unlock some CGs and mini-games.

For example, the relationship between Shi Yan and the "white fox" in human form, and Bai Xiaoxiao, is like that.

Despite Xiaoxiao's negative affection level for Shiyan, she is still able to unlock different CGs and mini-games under various affection levels.

One of the reasons for this is her "natural allure".

The effects of "Innate Allure" are basically useless against players using cheat codes. The latter... not bad, not bad at all, "Innate Allure" is still pretty good... just kidding!

It's just a few interactions; I don't care about them at all.

However... there seem to be a few lines of smaller text added below the original effect of "naturally alluring".

Shi Yan looked at it carefully.

"The person you cultivate with will receive additional cultivation points and pleasure bonuses..."

Shi Yan's smile suddenly froze, and the corners of his mouth twitched wildly.

What the heck is this?!
