This feeling of personally nurturing an unparalleled genius was quite satisfying.
“Yin Sha, I’m going to head to the Seven-Colored Shell next,” Bai Sha said at that moment.
“Mm, go ahead,” Yin Sha nodded.
Without saying anything further, Bai Sha turned and sped into the distance, parting the seawater.
Seven-Colored Shell.
When Bai Sha arrived here, she actually felt her heartbeat quicken slightly.
The reason was that she was about to acquire a very large amount of Contribution Points.
“Splash…”
The seawater surged.
Bai Sha swam into the Seven-Colored Shell, passing by various Demon Cultivators until she reached the Rest Shells. She found one and entered it.
Next, she was going to sell quite a few items to the Dream Ruins. Naturally, she couldn’t let other Demon Cultivators see it. She understood the principle of not flaunting one’s wealth.
After closing the Rest Shell, Bai Sha summoned the Dream Ruins Panel and checked her current Contribution Points.
13,000.
After a glance, Bai Sha proceeded to take out various items from her Moon Spirit Pearl.
The formation cores of the Lake Formation, the Rocky Pile Formation, and the Gloomy Forest Formation—three formation cores—sold for 15,000, 16,500, and 18,500 respectively.
Her Contribution Points reached 63,000.
Bai Sha took a deep breath and continued selling formation materials.
In her last life, Bai Sha sold all the formation materials, reaching a total of 21,200 Contribution Points. This time, she had obtained even more formation materials and could sell them for even more.
But as she sold, another thought occurred to Bai Sha.
‘Yin Sha will also need materials to practice setting up formations when she studies them, right? Maybe I should leave some for her?’
With this thought, Bai Sha decided not to sell all the materials. She stopped when her total Contribution Points reached 90,000.
90,000 Contribution Points—this was already an incredibly vast sum. Bai Sha had never held so many Contribution Points before.
She decided to sell the Hell Mud as well.
This Foundation Establishment level Ancient Forbidden Artifact could only affect targets below the Demon Core level. Now that Bai Sha herself had reached the Foundation Establishment Stage, this Ancient Forbidden Artifact didn’t provide her with nearly as much help as before.
Looking at her 95,000 Contribution Points, Bai Sha exhaled a few bubbles, then entered the Ancient Forbidden Artifact section under the trading interface. She directly opened the Demon Core level Ancient Forbidden Artifact section to browse.
Ancient Forbidden Artifacts started at a minimum of Foundation Establishment level, costing 10,000 Contribution Points to purchase.
Demon Core level artifacts required 50,000 Contribution Points, and Transformation stage artifacts required 200,000.
Bai Sha couldn’t afford a Transformation stage Ancient Forbidden Artifact, but for a Demon Core level one, she felt she could finally obtain it.
The number of Demon Core level Ancient Forbidden Artifacts wasn’t very large. After looking through them one by one, Bai Sha quickly chose one that suited her taste and purchased it.
Name: Shattering Mirror.
Category: Ancient Forbidden Artifact.
Level: Demon Core Level.
Effect: Anyone whose entire body is reflected in the mirror will be absorbed inside. Internally, they will endure immense pressure until they die.
Cost: After use, the user will be trapped inside the mirror for a duration equal to the time they used it.
With a fluctuation of space, a mirror with a silver-white frame appeared in Bai Sha’s… fin.
Bai Sha looked at the mirror’s surface, which reflected her own head. At first glance, it seemed like just an ordinary mirror.
However, extreme caution was necessary when using this mirror. If she accidentally allowed the mirror to reflect her entire body, she would be killed by it even as the user.
Very cautiously, Bai Sha pulled out a piece of black cloth from her Moon Spirit Pearl and wrapped it around the mirror face, only then feeling at ease.
“A Demon Core level Ancient Forbidden Artifact… how many simulation attempts can it add for me?”
Bai Sha murmured to herself.
The moment this Ancient Forbidden Artifact was taken out of the exchange, Bai Sha sensed a strong craving emanating from the Simulator.
She silently commanded the Simulator Panel to appear, then without hesitation, chose to let the Simulator devour the mysterious power that somehow existed upon the Shattering Mirror.
The next moment, the content on the Simulator Panel changed.
Name: Bai Sha
Cultivation: Foundation Establishment (Mid)
Simulation Count: 8
Simulation Saves: 1
Cultivation Art: Raging Waves Art
Spells: Chaotic Star Hand, Water Shadow Art, Water Sky Travel, Water Dragon Burst, Wave Riding, Stone-Splitting Strike, Water Vortex, Vine Manipulation Art, Hardening Art, Water Repelling.
Items: Gray-White Stone Slab.
…
Upon seeing the changes on the panel, Bai Sha’s spirit was immediately invigorated.
The Simulation Count had actually increased to 8!
She knew that upon entering her sixth life, the Simulation Count had been reduced to 5. This meant that a single Demon Core level Ancient Forbidden Artifact carried enough mysterious power to increase the Simulation Count by 3 in one go.
This was undoubtedly good news, and a smile appeared on Bai Sha’s face. But then, a puzzled look appeared.
Because she sensed another wave of craving from the Simulator.
“This feeling is…”
Bai Sha carefully examined the sensation transmitted by the Simulator and soon became pensive.
She felt the Simulator had a desire to increase the Simulation Count to 10. Though she didn’t know why the Simulator had such a craving, Bai Sha now had enough Contribution Points not to hesitate over this.
Immediately, she exchanged for two more Foundation Establishment level Ancient Forbidden Artifacts.
With that, she had 25,000 Contribution Points remaining.
Bai Sha directly had the Simulator devour the mysterious power from the two Ancient Forbidden Artifacts, bringing the Simulation Count to 10 in one stroke.
And at that moment, Bai Sha discovered another change on the Simulator.
Simulation Count: 10
Simulation Saves: 1+
The change in Simulation Count was expected, but the change in the Simulation Saves made Bai Sha pause.
Save File?
Honestly, ever since this function appeared, Bai Sha hadn’t figured out how to increase it. The only save file she had was the one from the very beginning of her transmigration, which meant she had to restart from that timeline every time.
Now she could increase the save files?
Bai Sha felt as if her heartbeat had sped up. She hurriedly focused her intent on clicking that plus sign next to the Simulation Saves.
“Use 10 Simulation Attempts to exchange for 1 new Simulation Save?”
When this prompt appeared, Bai Sha’s expression instantly stiffened.
10 Simulation Attempts?
One Simulation Save required 10 Simulation Attempts to obtain?
Bai Sha couldn’t help but suck in a breath of cold water. She knew well that accumulating 10 Simulation Attempts was no easy task, requiring 10 Ancient Forbidden Artifacts. Even though Ancient Forbidden Artifacts could be resold to halve the expenditure, one had to remember that Ancient Forbidden Artifacts were limited in number, not infinite.
In the entire Dream Ruins, there were only a few dozen obtainable Ancient Forbidden Artifacts, and that was including all levels. So one could imagine how precious 10 Simulation Attempts truly were.
However, after thinking it over repeatedly, Bai Sha gritted her teeth and chose to confirm.
Simulation Count: 0
Simulation Saves: 2
The information on the panel changed once more.
