Beauties in Simulation Cross over into Reality-Chapter 64 - 56: He Looks Best in a Cyan Robe

In the courtyard, just as Xiao Mo’s consciousness withdrew from the Hundred Generations Book, a string of text appeared in his mind—

The host has completely adapted to the 100:1 time ratio between the Hundred Generations Book and the real world.

The time ratio between the Hundred Generations Book and the real world is now unlocked. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

The time ratio can be increased to 1000:1.

One thousand years in the Hundred Generations Book is equivalent to one year in the real world.

The host may use their consciousness to select different time ratios.

Note: The protection offered by the Hundred Generations Book is limited. The host should make selections based on their actual condition. If the chosen time ratio is too high, upon exiting the Hundred Generations Book, it is highly likely the host will experience a disorienting trance—as if a thousand years have passed in an instant—which will cause a severe shock to their Divine Soul.

The words in his mind dissipated.

Xiao Mo was delighted.

’An increased time ratio between the Hundred Generations Book and the real world means I can get my rewards faster.’

’Of course, the flow of time inside the Hundred Generations Book is constant, just like in daily life.’

’That’s why the Hundred Generations Book is worried that after I experience a thousand years inside it, I’ll return to reality only to find that a single year has passed...’

’The shock to one’s Divine Soul would be immense. It could even drive a person mad on the spot.’

’But regardless, a higher time ratio is beneficial for me.’

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Mo stood up and began to practice with his sword.

Over the past few days, Xiao Mo had already reached the Qi Cultivation First Layer.

His cultivation progress wasn’t slow, but he was hardly what you would call exceptionally talented.

’With a bit more time, I should be able to reach the Qi Cultivation Second Layer.’

After all, the Qi Cultivation Realm was the easiest to progress through. As long as one possessed a Spirit Root, most Cultivators could reach the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer.

But advancing further to achieve Foundation Establishment—now that was difficult.

Foundation Establishment is a major hurdle for any Cultivator.

Even with a Foundation Establishment Pill, the chances of successfully achieving Foundation Establishment only increased by twenty to thirty percent. The rest was up to the individual.

And you only get one chance at Foundation Establishment.

If you failed on your first attempt, trying again later...

...wasn’t impossible, but it was harder than ascending to the heavens.

If Xiao Mo were to make an analogy from his past life, it was about as likely as his home country’s national soccer team making it into the World Cup.

After Foundation Establishment came the establishment of a Cave Mansion.

Qi Cultivation, Foundation Establishment, and Cave Mansion were known as the Lower Three Realms.

After the Cave Mansion Realm came the Dragon Gate Realm.

The Dragon Gate Realm was the first of the Middle Three Realms, and it was yet another major hurdle.

’How on earth did Yan Shanao reach the Dragon Gate Realm?’ Xiao Mo felt a sense of helplessness.

’If I’m going to summon him to the Imperial Palace for a secret assassination,’ Xiao Mo thought, ’I’d need to be at the Dragon Gate Realm myself, no matter how much I have the element of surprise.’

’But compared to heaven-blessed prodigies like Qingyi and Ruxue, I have no idea how many years it would take with my own cultivation talent.’

’And what’s more, the Emperor’s Skill is gone from this world...’

Xiao Mo sighed internally at the thought.

The last time Xiao Mo had exited the Hundred Generations Book, he had gone to the Imperial Palace’s library to look through some ancient texts.

According to legend, a long, long time ago, it was vaguely recorded that while an Emperor could not use Official Skill, they could use the Emperor’s Skill.

But now, Emperors didn’t even have the Emperor’s Skill.

If that wasn’t just a legend, if Emperors of the past could truly use the Emperor’s Skill...

...then something must have happened to change the Laws of Heaven and Earth, placing restrictions on Emperors.

However, Official Skill did still exist in this world.

An Emperor could strip an official of their Mountain and River Fortune by dismissing them from their post.

The problem was that Yan Shanao had reached the Dragon Gate Realm through his own cultivation, which had little to do with Mountain and River Fortune. And while the Zhou Kingdom called itself the "Great Zhou," in reality, it was just an ordinary Dynasty.

It was a minor kingdom compared to the Qi Kingdom from the Hundred Generations Book.

Not to mention, the Zhou Kingdom’s national fortune was in a nosedive, showing every sign of circling the drain.

So even if Xiao Mo appointed a new Prime Minister, their Realm would, at best, cap out at Cave Mansion Perfection...

’Besides, if I actually dared to appoint a new Prime Minister, I’d probably be strangled by a Palace Maid the very next day.’

’Forget it. I’m not going to dwell on this. I’ll take it one step at a time, focus on my sword practice, and strive to earn more rewards in the Hundred Generations Book.’

Xiao Mo began to focus on his sword practice.

Two hours later.

Drenched in sweat, Xiao Mo decided to go to the neighboring Qingquan Palace to bathe.

The spring in Qingquan Palace had fatigue-relieving properties. While it couldn’t compare to the Spiritual Springs of the major Sects, it was better than nothing.

"Your Majesty..."

Just then, Wei Xun’s voice came from outside the door.

"Come in." Xiao Mo placed his Peach Wood Sword on its rack.

Wei Xun pushed open the door, scurried to Xiao Mo with small steps, and bowed. "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister came by just now. This servant told him that Your Majesty was cultivating and could not be distracted, so the Prime Minister left. He asked this servant to relay a message to Your Majesty."

"What was it?" Xiao Mo picked up a cloth and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"The Prime Minister said that Elder Huang of the Wanjian Sect is expected to arrive at the Great Zhou Imperial City in about ten days. He hopes Your Majesty will remember to pause your cultivation in a few days to personally welcome the Elder," Wei Xun said, treading carefully.

Xiao Mo’s brow furrowed. "Go and tell him I understand."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Wei Xun quickly began to withdraw.

"Wait."

"Does Your Majesty have an order?"

"Go and find out what kind of person this Elder Huang is."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

...

「Lingxin Palace.」

A woman with a graceful figure stepped forward and curtsied before the still-charming Empress Dowager, who sat at the head of the room. "Your subject, Yan Ruxue, pays her respects to the Empress Dowager."

"We are from the same clan. There is no need for such ceremony." Empress Dowager Yan smiled as she stepped forward to help Yan Ruxue to her feet.

Looking at this talented young woman from her clan, whom she hadn’t seen in years, Empress Dowager Yan’s face filled with affection. "When you were little, you were only up to my knee. I never imagined that you, Ruxue, would blossom into such a graceful young lady."
