    ## Chapter 6: Talent, Death with Unclosed Eyes!

    [He kept searching for something on your body, eventually taking the half-scroll of “Eternal Spring Technique.” Before leaving, he stomped on your head, causing it to burst.]

    [You lost your eyes, the “Death with Unclosed Eyes” talent became ineffective.]

    [This simulation ends!]

    [You can choose one of the following rewards: Death with Unclosed Eyes (Talent), Half-scroll of Eternal Spring Technique (Cultivation Technique)]

    [Death with Unclosed Eyes (White Talent): Price 1000 Energy Points.]

    [Half-scroll of Eternal Spring Technique (Cultivation Technique): Price 3000 Energy Points, the most common Wood Attribute cultivation technique, capable of extending lifespan and accelerating Qi absorption.]

    “He didn’t even live to see the end of the world? Killed by a mysterious person?”

    Su Xing’s face was grave.

    “That mysterious person took the Eternal Spring Technique Wang Qingxuan gave me… Perhaps, he is also from that mysterious organization?”

    Su Xing furrowed his brow slightly, then noticed the simulation rewards.

    “It really is a cultivation technique!”

    “Half-scroll of Eternal Spring Technique, it actually costs 3000 Energy Points?”

    Su Xing was conflicted, muttering to himself:

    “So should I choose the Death with Unclosed Eyes talent or the Eternal Spring Technique?”

    3000 Energy Points, although Su Xing didn’t have that much on hand.

    However, if he spent a few hundred thousand to buy white equipment, then convert it to energy, he could buy it.

    But… This Death with Unclosed Eyes is clearly a divine skill in the simulation!

    At the very least, Su Xing could know his cause of death, and even find out what happened on the day of the apocalypse!

    “Sigh…”

    Su Xing rubbed his temples, murmuring:

    “Eternal Spring Technique has a chance to be obtained in the next simulation, but this Death with Unclosed Eyes talent, it’s unknown when I’ll randomly get it again…”

    Su Xing gritted his teeth and chose the Death with Unclosed Eyes talent.

    [Ding, you have chosen to bring back the Death with Unclosed Eyes talent from the simulation, consuming 1000 Energy Points, remaining Energy Points 782.]

    Only 782 Energy Points left.

    Su Xing frowned slightly, he had already made plans for the next simulation.

    That is, to bring back the Eternal Spring Technique!

    But redeeming the Eternal Spring Technique requires 3000 Energy Points.

    And the energy cost for each simulation increases by 100 points, so the next simulation will require 400 Energy Points, plus 100 Energy Points for drawing a talent.

    He needs to accumulate at least 3500 points to bring back the Eternal Spring Technique!

    There is still a gap of almost 3000 Energy Points.

    Based on an average of 5 Energy Points for each white equipment item, he needs to buy at least 600 white equipment items.

    The cheapest white equipment item costs at least 1000 to 2000 Great Summer Currency.

    This means he needs to spend at least 600,000 Great Summer Currency to get enough energy points.

    “Sigh, headache… but I must get the Eternal Spring Technique!”

    “The key is to make money and develop!”

    So, for the next week, Su Xing started grinding dungeon runs day and night, occasionally checking in on Wang Qingxuan.

    Su Xing spent a week, frantically running dungeons 50 times, earning a total of over 500,000 Great Summer Currency!

    Coupled with his previous one million deposit, Su Xing now had over 1.5 million in his account.

    However, after purchasing 600 white equipment items, Su Xing’s deposit plummeted back to 700,000 Great Summer Currency.

    “Start simulation!”

    [Consuming 400 Energy Points, remaining Energy Points 3282, remaining simulation times unlimited.]

    [Simulation starts!]

    [Drawing a white talent costs 100 Energy Points, a green talent costs 1000 Energy Points. Do you wish to draw?]

    “Draw a white talent!”

    [Ding, congratulations on obtaining a white talent, “Calm as a Still Lake”! ]

    [Calm as a Still Lake: No matter how tumultuous your inner world, you still appear calm on the surface, also known as, poker face.]

    Seeing this talent, Su Xing’s face took on a strange expression.

    This god-damned poker face can be considered a talent? It’s literally a cold-faced emperor?

    Su Xing shook his head, muttering:

    “Why bother thinking about this now, let’s just simulate first!”

    [You have made an appointment with your junior sisters to level up in the dungeon, you go out.]

    [Looking at your junior sisters’ fair thighs and good figures, you’re secretly overjoyed, but you remain impassive on the surface, still a virtuous gentleman.]

    [For the next year, you take your junior sisters to dungeons to level up and slay monsters every day, you remain expressionless in the face of their advances, but your heart is struggling to restrain itself.]

    [Over the year, you earned 25 million Great Summer Currency.]

    [At the same time, you also haven’t forgotten to check on Wang Qingxuan.]

    [But you fear that interfering with the previous simulation progress, so you also consciously maintained a certain distance from her.]

    [One day, Wang Qingxuan found you, she told you about the mysterious organization.]

    [You still persuade her not to join, using the words from your memory.]

    [That night, you tried a new position.]

    [The next day, Wang Qingxuan dropped out of school and disappeared without a trace.]

    [You know Wang Qingxuan has joined the mysterious organization, so you are not worried.]

    [This year, you failed to graduate due to insufficient strength.]

    [For the next four years, you continued to grind dungeons for gold, your net worth reached hundreds of millions.]

    [As expected, you were expelled.]

    [You left school, established the Taro Association, and started a second-hand equipment trading business in the Capital City.]

    [You quietly wait for Wang Qingxuan to find you.]

    [One day, Wang Qingxuan did come to your door.]

    [After a night, she left, leaving behind a half-scroll of Eternal Spring Technique!]

    [You memorized the entire content of the Eternal Spring Technique and tried to practice it a few times.]

    Su Xing was excited, clenching his fists.

    “Sure enough, as long as I follow the previous simulation progress, I can get the Eternal Spring Technique!”

    Su Xing continued the simulation.

    [You are still unable to cultivate, so you stop obsessing over it and choose to investigate the whereabouts of Qi.]

    [You send Taro Association members to all corners of the Great Summer Country, asking them to help you find Qi.]

    [Two years have passed, and you still haven’t found any clues about Qi.]

    [But your business has grown bigger and bigger, you’ve amassed billions in assets.]

    [This year, you know your sister will die, and you can’t stop it.]

    [So you spend a fortune to buy a Grandmaster-level piece of equipment, hoping to help your sister survive.]

    [Before Su Nian An went to the Demon-Suppressing Pass, you went home, gave her the equipment, and spoke to her for a long time.]

    [A month later, news of your sister’s death reached you.]

    [You are heartbroken but helpless.]

    [Three years have passed, you are lucky, your business is booming, and Taro Association members are spread throughout the Great Summer Country.]

    [You know the next person to die is Yu Fatso.]

    [So the day before Yu Fatso goes to the Demon-Suppressing Pass, you go out for drinks with him.]

    [That night, you drank a lot, Yu Fatso sent you home.]

    [Not long after, you attended Yu Yan’s funeral.]

    [This year, you invested all your funds in the potion industry, you made a fortune, your net worth reached hundreds of billions.]

    [But you are worried, because you know the mysterious person will come for you a year later.]

    [So you prepare to flee to another country, before leaving, you sell off most of your assets.]

    [However, an accident happened.]

    [The Goddess of Fortune smiled upon you, a few days before you were to depart for the US, you received a message about Qi…]
