Simulation: Suppressing the Fate of Heaven, I Became an Immortal in Three Days

44: Cui Fengyu, Soul Fusion[Hearing your suggestion, Wang Beixuan couldn’t help but shake his head.]

[Because although these people were unethical, they had, after all, already paid the Spirit Stones to enter the island.]

[Therefore, these people should enjoy the same treatment as ordinary residents and receive the protection of the Luanshen Sea.]

[Seeing how indecisive Wang Beixuan was, you frowned deeply.]

[In fact, your initial plan was to first propose expelling them, and then take the opportunity to kill them all.]

[Afterward, you would take their Spirit Stones and divide them among yourself and the various island lords.]

[But who would have thought that your plan would fail at the very first step.]

[You changed your opinion of Wang Beixuan.]

[You began to expand your operations toward the main island of the Chaotic Star Archipelago.]

[Because you knew that in times of chaos, following an indecisive person like Wang Beixuan was destined to end badly.]

[Year 48.]

[The Su Family Commerce that you established successfully expanded to the Central Profound Island.]

[This was the core area of the entire Chaotic Star Archipelago, with an area comparable to half an Imperial Dynasty.]

[Furthermore, land prices here were astronomically high, worth its weight in gold.]

[Even with the Face you had as the Vice Island Lord of the Far North Island, it still cost you nearly a million Spirit Stones to secure a prime location on the Central Profound Island.]

[Although you paid a hefty price, you did not panic at all.]

[Because over the years, you had also accumulated quite a few cultivation resources through your connections.]

[As long as you sold them off in a wealthy place like the Central Profound Island, you were bound to make a fortune.]

[Sure enough, in just three days, the cultivation resources you had accumulated over the years sold for eight million Spirit Stones.]

[This could be described as an astronomical sum.]

[The Island Lord of the Central Profound Island personally received you.]

[You readily went to meet him.]

[Under his series of hints, you understood.]

[The Island Lord was named Cui Fengyu, a Nascent Soul Peak Cultivator.]

[But despite his decent Aptitude, he had been stuck at the threshold of the Nascent Soul Peak for hundreds of years.]

[He had already reached the Nascent Soul Peak at the age of four hundred, yet now at seven hundred and fifty, he was still wasting away at the Nascent Soul Peak.]

[There was only one reason.]

[And that was resources.]

[Having risen step by step from a mere Loose Cultivator, Cui Fengyu could be said to utterly detest those greedy high-ranking Cultivators.]

[Since he took over as the Island Lord of the Central Profound Island more than three hundred years ago, he had maintained a noble and upright character.]

[He resolutely refused to collude with the lords of the other islands.]

[But now... that was no longer possible.]

[He was about to reach the eight-hundred-year life limit of a Nascent Soul Cultivator.]

[Yet the resources he had accumulated solely from his salary left his Breakthrough to Soul Transformation far out of reach.]

[He panicked.]

[He grew afraid.]

[He decided to start gathering the island’s resources to fund his own Breakthrough.]

[Thus, he sought you out.]

[You were more than happy to see this happen.]

[After all, someone like Cui Fengyu was arguably the easiest type of person to get along with.]

[Fifth Year 50.]

[With Cui Fengyu’s help, your business had spread across the entire Chaotic Star Archipelago.]

[Although you still operated on small profits and quick turnover, the Spirit Stones you earned from it were far beyond what you could make before.]

[However, because you had to satisfy Cui Fengyu’s appetite, the current Su Family Commerce still wasn’t making a net profit.]

[Most of your financial sources remained the same as before.]

[Year 52.]

[With the help of the Power of Leadership, your Realm successfully reached the Golden Core Peak.]

[You began to prepare for the Nascent Soul Realm.]

[But how could a Breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Realm be so easy?]

[Just the requirement of a Nascent Soul Condensation Pill alone has already blocked more than ninety percent of Cultivators.]

[Although some prodigies could successfully break through without relying on a Nascent Soul Condensation Pill.]

[But those were, after all, a tiny minority. You didn’t believe that a mere Three Spiritual Roots Cultivator like yourself could match those prodigies.]

[You began to nurture your Dao Companions and children.]

[To see if you could rely on the Power of Leadership to complete your Breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Realm.]

[Year 57.]

[Your eldest son Su Qingfeng and youngest son Su Qingyun broke through to the Foundation Establishment Realm one after another.]

[And you could clearly sense that Su Qingyun’s cultivation was actually slightly higher.]

[It had to be said, he truly lived up to being a Prodigy with a Single Spiritual Root and a Medium Grade Spiritual Physique; such speed was probably not inferior to even the Disciples of those major forces.]

[Furthermore, Su Qingyun was quite interested in alchemy.]

[After careful consideration, you had Dan Juezi become his teacher.]

[Although he was extremely reluctant, after seeing Su Qingyun’s talent, he accepted him nonetheless.]

[Year 59.]

[Your second son Su Qingya and daughter Su Qingyue successfully broke through to the Foundation Establishment Realm.]

[In the same year, Ji Qingxuan broke through to the Purple Mansion Realm.]

[Mu Ningshuang reached the seventh layer of the Golden Core Realm.]

[Feng Xuanji broke through repeatedly, reaching the Purple Mansion Peak directly.]

[The Power of Leadership activated, and your cultivation increased.]

[You could clearly feel yourself taking a step closer to the Nascent Soul Realm. If one of them could break through to the Nascent Soul Realm, or if multiple people broke through to the Golden Core Realm, you might really be able to break through directly into the Nascent Soul Realm.]

[Year 60.]

[Feng Xuanji broke through to the Golden Core Realm.]

[You realized something was amiss, because before this, you hadn’t bought a Golden Core Condensation Pill for her.]

[Nor had she ever mentioned to you that she was about to break through.]

[You asked her for the reason.]

[However, she herself found it somewhat baffling.]

[At that time, she was just cultivating as usual, but her body had involuntarily begun to undergo a Breakthrough.]

[And so, she had formed her Golden Core in such a baffling manner.]

[You looked into her eyes, speechless for a long time.]

[Your intuition told you that Feng Xuanji seemed to have become a different person.]

[However, the boost from the Power of Leadership was still present, which meant her attitude toward you remained unchanged, with no difference from usual.]

[You consulted Dan Juezi about what was happening to Feng Xuanji.]

[He saw through it at a single glance.]

[”Two Souls are slowly beginning to fuse within her!”]

[”Fusion?!”]

[You said in surprise.]

[”Indeed, Fusion.”]

[”This is a contingency plan left by a tiny minority of Tribulation Transcendence cultivators before Undergoing Tribulation. If they fail, they can immediately carry their Soul into Reincarnation again.”]

[”And now, it must be that the Soul of her past life has awakened and is fusing with her current self.”]

[Hearing Dan Juezi’s words, you suddenly realized.]

[So, there were currently two Souls fusing inside Feng Xuanji’s body.]

[But... after the Fusion, who exactly would she be?]

[Or perhaps, Feng Xuanji was originally the name from her past life.]

[In the last simulation, Xiao Su only changed her name to Feng Xuanji after successfully Awakening her past life’s memories.]

[”Senior, is there any way in this Fusion to make one of their Souls dominant?”]
