12: Chapter 12 Becoming a Transcendent Realm Expert
The simulator still displayed the settlement rewards.
[Please choose a reward:
1. Detailed memories of the simulator mission
2. Techniques learned in the simulator (including cultivation and Martial Dao experience)
3. Add 27 Talent Points]
Lin Heng glanced at the three rewards above.
The previous two times, he had chosen Talent Points. Both times he lived to fifty years old, so he could get fifty Talent Points. This time, he only lived to twenty-seven, so he could only get twenty-seven Talent Points.
"It's now without a doubt that the Talent Points one can obtain depend on how old one lives to be." Lin Heng pondered while looking at the Talent Points.
At the same time, Talent Points could also increase his Martial Dao talent.
"With only about two hundred Talent Points, I'm already a top Genius in Dragon Country. If I had several thousand Talent Points, wouldn't I be able to Breakthrough to Martial Arts Saint in minutes?" Lin Heng mused, stroking his chin.
Looking at the three rewards, he thought for a moment. First, option one was definitely out; Lin Three seemed like a love-struck fool.
He was a bit conflicted between two and three. According to the simulator's simulation, as long as he didn't seek trouble, nothing would happen to him in those years.
But after only a brief thought, he chose option two.
After all, Lin Three had lived too short a life this time.
The moment Lin Heng chose option two, he felt a huge surge of power pour into his body. A continuous flow of Qi appeared in his Dantian.
He felt that he could freely mobilize this Qi to circulate within his body.
He picked up a cup and gathered the Internal Energy from his Dantian in his hand.
With a "crash."
The entire glass cup shattered into countless fragments.
"Is this Internal Energy?" Lin Heng said happily, feeling the power within his body.
For the next period, Lin Heng was like a child who had just received a new toy.
He continuously played with the Internal Energy within his body.
Then, Lin Heng became weak.
"No, I've only done this a few times?" Lin Heng lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling.
His only feeling now was exhaustion, utterly exhausted.
He had just condensed the Internal Energy in his body into his hand and fired it out like a bullet.
But after only five shots, he was done for.
Although his body wasn't physically tired, the mental exhaustion from depleting his Internal Energy was immense.
Lin Heng lay on the bed and soon fell asleep.
The current Martial Artist world is an era where Martial Saints do not emerge, and Grandmasters are invincible. No one has Broken Through to Martial Saint for nearly a hundred years, and the remaining Martial Saints mostly live in seclusion. Therefore, Grandmasters can be said to be the highest combat power in the Martial Dao world.
Transcendent is the highest Realm below Grandmaster, and in this Martial Dao world, they are also figures of great authority, at least equivalent to Elders within a Sect.
Unless it's a life-or-death battle, Transcendent experts generally wouldn't needlessly exhaust all the Internal Energy in their bodies.
And generally, no Transcendent expert would directly shoot out Internal Energy in such an inefficient way.
So, if Lin Heng's actions were seen by other Martial Artists, they would probably be shocked.
When Lin Heng woke up, it was already twelve noon.
He felt the Internal Energy in his body; it had only recovered about half.
"But it's enough," Lin Heng thought.
Feeling that he hadn't eaten anything all morning, he ordered a beef rice bowl.
When he received the beef rice bowl, Lin Heng felt something was off.
"No, I am a Transcendent Martial Artist now!" He looked at the beef rice bowl in front of him and said, "How can something like this match my status!"
As a Transcendent expert, one naturally had the demeanor of a Transcendent expert. After saying that, he ordered another beef rice bowl.
He would eat one and discard the other.
"There shouldn't be a Transcendent expert as extravagant as me in this world, right?" Lin Heng thought.
Although he said that, the other rice bowl was still given to the sanitation auntie.
As the saying goes, when people are full, they start to think about unnecessary things. Lin Heng was like that now.
He originally opened his phone, preparing to "study" properly.
But as soon as he opened it, he found that his study website had been deleted.
"It's over, I can't find the old website anymore," Lin Heng said to his phone, on the verge of tears.
Fei City, inside Wanhao Bar.
This was the largest bar in all of Fei City, and upon entering, one was greeted by the most luxurious nightlife atmosphere of Fei City.
The splendid lights were colorful, and the girls' skirts here were as short as could be, their fair legs captivating to behold.
Lin Heng sat in a certain seat and ordered a drink.
"Isn't this one drink eight hundred yuan!" Lin Heng said, looking at the small green drink brought by the attendant.
He took a small sip, not finding it particularly delicious.
"Forget it, it's better to watch pretty girls dance," Lin Heng said, putting down his glass.
Actually, coming to this kind of place was a sudden whim. No matter what, he was now a Transcendent expert. As long as he didn't seek trouble, there shouldn't be many issues.
He admitted that he was a bit carried away now, like an ordinary person who had received a large sum of money and immediately wanted to squander it.
"Sigh!" He sighed, looking at the beautiful women whose skirts were almost at their hips, constantly swaying their bodies.
"I don't want to rely on my right hand anymore!" Lin Heng thought to himself.
However, he hadn't yet figured out how to strike up a conversation. He didn't have much money now. Should he just go over and tell her?
"I am a Transcendent expert!"
He would definitely receive a roll of the eyes.
"If only beautiful women would throw themselves into my arms like in novels."
Lin Heng looked at the green-glowing drink in his glass, feeling more and more out of place here.
Alright, that's enough.
It's almost twelve o'clock, time to go back and start the next simulation. Nothing is more important than simulation!
He was just about to get up and leave.
Just then.
A slender figure rushed over in a panic.
The girl had delicate features, a trace of panic on her face. She quickly glanced left and right, then, without a word, plunged into Lin Heng's arms.
Soft, fragrant, and completely unexpected.
"What?"
Lin Heng was completely stunned.
Holy crap?
A beautiful woman actually threw herself at him?
He instinctively reached out and wrapped his arm around the girl's waist, his mind momentarily short-circuiting: "Beauty... who are you?"
The girl buried her head, silent, her hands tightly clutching his clothes, her body trembling slightly, as if hiding from someone.
Lin Heng was about to ask again.
At the bar entrance.
Several dark figures suddenly walked in.
They were uniformly dressed in black suits, expressionless, with cold eyes, steady footsteps, and restrained auras.
As soon as they entered, their gazes swept coldly across the entire venue.
The bar immediately fell silent. Everyone looked at the group of men in black who had entered, not daring to speak.
The Female Bar Owner was a woman in her thirties, wearing a well-tailored black cheongsam that accentuated her graceful figure. Her eyes were charming, but her demeanor was cold.
"May I ask who you gentlemen are?" The Female Bar Owner swayed her hips and walked up to the leader to inquire.
The leader of the men in black did not speak, but merely handed the Female Bar Owner a card from his pocket.
The Female Bar Owner took the card, her expression instantly changing to a fawning smile. She quickly stepped aside, making way, and her tone became much more respectful: "So it's Brother Long's people! What a misunderstanding, family not recognizing family! I was blind not to recognize Mount Tai. Are you gentlemen here for a drink, or..."
"Looking for someone," the leader of the men in black said in a hoarse, indifferent voice.
Seeing this, the surrounding guests shrank back, fearing to be drawn into the trouble. The entire venue was left with only the heavy background music and the gradually approaching footsteps of the men in black, the atmosphere suppressed to the extreme.
The girl in Lin Heng's arms, seeing the men in black, quickly buried her face in his chest, pressing tightly against him, unwilling to reveal herself in the slightest.
Anyone with eyes could clearly see that these men in black were looking for the girl in Lin Heng's arms.
For ordinary people, the best course of action at this moment would definitely be to quickly push the girl away and distance themselves from her.
But Lin Heng, far from panicking, felt a strange thrill rising within him.
And there was another point: the girl kept rubbing against him, making him feel a bit...
Lin Heng tried to remain calm, held the girl, and took a light sip of the green drink in his bottle.
The men in black's gazes swept over one person after another.
Without exception, those people averted their eyes, not daring to meet their gaze, fearing to bring trouble upon themselves.
Until they saw Lin Heng, their gazes instantly fell upon the girl in his arms.
Without a doubt, although the girl in his arms did not show her face, based on her clothes and figure, she was the person they were looking for.
The men in black immediately surrounded them.
"Kid!" The leader of the men in black shouted, looking coldly at Lin Heng.
