The threat of the Bloodthirsty Swordfish was considered resolved.
Bai Sha didn’t know if the Bloodthirsty Swordfish Clan had any other members, but since she hadn’t seen any over several lifetimes, there was no need to worry excessively about it.
After bidding farewell to Yu Ye, she returned to the Seven-Colored Shell.
The Seven-Colored Shell also had Rest Shells, which were places specifically for resting. Every Demon Alliance member received one free day of rest per year.
A Rest Shell wasn’t very large, roughly the size of a small room. It contained nothing but seawater. Its sole advantage was that the shell could be closed, preventing outsiders from seeing what was happening inside.
After using her free stay, Bai Sha entered the Rest Shell and had a wonderful sleep.
As a Great White Shark, she still swam even while sleeping, and where she might drift was uncertain. In this world of Demon Cultivators, that wasn’t safe, so she always found a secure place before sleeping.
After about six hours, Bai Sha slowly awoke.
She didn’t rush to leave the Rest Shell and directly summoned the Dream Ruins Panel.
“I still have 7,000 Contribution Points. There’s no need to hold onto them forever. After all, who knows when I’ll enter the next life? It’s better to spend them quickly to increase my strength.”
Bai Sha first opened the trading interface and entered the Spells section.
Currently, Bai Sha possessed the Yin Sha Sect’s Water Dragon Burst, but having only a single spell still felt insufficient. She wanted to master more spells.
Within the Spells section, the various spells were further divided into sub-sections: Attack, Defense, and Support.
Bai Sha first browsed through the Support-type spells.
Qi Condensation level spells generally cost around 500 Contribution Points, while Foundation Establishment level spells needed around 2,000.
Although Bai Sha could afford Foundation Establishment level spells, with her cultivation at the Qi Condensation Middle Stage, she couldn’t actually cast spells of that level. So she could only choose from Qi Condensation level spells.
After looking through them carefully, Bai Sha selected one spell and spent 500 Contribution Points to purchase its learning method.
Wave Riding: A spell that increases one’s movement speed, usable only in water.
Bai Sha felt this movement speed-enhancing spell was indispensable.
After the training method for Wave Riding appeared in her mind, she briefly reviewed it before continuing to browse the spells available.
She wanted to pick one more spell.
After looking around, Bai Sha chose a spell called Stone-Splitting Strike.
This was an attack spell. It allowed the user to strike a target with their tail fin. During the strike, Demonic Power operated in a unique way to fortify the tail fin, making the strike’s power extremely strong.
Her main reason for learning this spell was to diversify her attacks. She couldn’t rely solely on Water Dragon Burst as her only offensive spell.
“Later, I’ll go to the Cultivation Shell to increase my comprehension and quickly master these two spells. Before that…”
Bai Sha exited the Spells section and entered the Magical Tools section.
After glancing around a few times, she spent 2,000 Contribution Points to buy a Storage Artifact.
After the purchase, that familiar spatial fluctuation appeared around her body. Then, a Storage Artifact was teleported from some unknown distance right in front of her.
This Storage Artifact’s exterior was a blue sphere called the Blue Spirit Pearl. It could be used with Demonic Power, and its internal space was as large as a twenty-square-meter room.
Bai Sha caught the Blue Spirit Pearl with a pectoral fin and circulated her Demonic Power over it for a simple inspection.
Then, with a mere thought, the Blue Spirit Pearl flew up and directly merged into her body.
All magical tools could be directly integrated into the body, making them very convenient to carry.
The Blue Spirit Pearl was only the first magical tool Bai Sha bought.
Next, she spent another 1,000 Contribution Points on a second tool.
Aside from Storage Artifacts, which were exceptionally expensive, normal Qi Condensation level tools cost between 800 and 1,500 Contribution Points. The one Bai Sha bought was a relatively mid-range tool.
Like with spells, Qi Condensation Demon Cultivators basically couldn’t use Foundation Establishment Artifacts, so it was best to honestly buy Qi Condensation level ones.
This was a tool called the Green Flower Umbrella. Its exterior was an umbrella embroidered with green flowers, looking quite elegant.
Bai Sha tested it briefly.
This Green Flower Umbrella could grow larger and smaller. When enlarged, it could hang down blossoms of green flowers to protect the wielder. If an attack appeared, these flowers would erupt with green light to block it. It was a rather good Defensive Artifact.
Bai Sha was reasonably satisfied and stored it within her body.
“3,000 Contribution Points left.”
Bai Sha thought for a moment and then bought ten Life Spirit Pills.
She had used Life Spirit Pills before and knew they were excellent pills. Although expensive, they were worth the price. So she bought ten at once, spending 2,000 Contribution Points.
Then, just to be prepared, Bai Sha also spent 500 Contribution Points on five Recovery Pills, a type of healing pill, simply for unforeseen circumstances.
This left Bai Sha with only 500 Contribution Points remaining.
“Next, I’ll go learn Wave Riding and Stone-Splitting Strike first.”
Bai Sha summoned the Blue Spirit Pearl again, stored the Life Spirit Pills and Recovery Pills inside, and then left the Rest Shell.
After swimming through the Seven-Colored Shell for a short while, she arrived at the Cultivation Shells. Among the many shells here, only a few were occupied by other Demon Cultivators training.
Just as Bai Sha arrived, a Cultivation Shell opened, and the Demon Cultivator inside finished their training and left.
Bai Sha was startled when she saw this Demon Cultivator.
Because it was a mature and beautiful human woman… No, to be precise, it was a Demon Cultivator in Transformation.
Humans were considered the most spiritual of all living things, so when Demon Cultivators reached a certain level of power and could transform, they often took on a human appearance.
A Demon Cultivator with a human form was synonymous with being a powerful expert.
Those who could enter the Seven-Colored Shell were definitely not humans but Demons. This was the first time Bai Sha had seen a transformed Demon Cultivator at the Seven-Colored Shell, and she couldn’t help but look a few more times.
She wasn’t the only one. Other Demon Cultivators also couldn’t help glancing over when they saw a transformed Demon Cultivator.
The transformed Demon Cultivator seemed accustomed to this, ignoring the stares completely, and hurriedly left with a tense expression.
‘Tense? Did I see wrong? A being of this level worrying about something?’
Bai Sha thought to herself.
But she didn’t dwell on it. She turned around and entered the adjacent Cultivation Shell.
As the Cultivation Shell’s panel popped up, Bai Sha, already familiar with the process, set up the comprehension boost, environment simulation, and other related functions, then chose to activate it.
The surrounding environment instantly changed into a deep-sea seabed setting.
Then came the practice of Wave Riding and Stone-Splitting Strike.
At this moment, Bai Sha felt her mind become exceptionally clear. No matter what she thought about, she seemed to understand it immediately.
Not daring to waste time, she recalled the training content for Wave Riding. Mastering this spell seemed so simple; all the details within it, she knew what to do at a glance.
Her cultivation proceeded at a furious pace.
