Cultivation Simulator: Starting From The Empress' Palace

Hearing this, Chen Mo gave a bitter smile. Of course, he knew this point.

But with his current strength, he was not yet capable of refining an Initial Grade Dao Artifact.

Besides, he didn’t understand artifact refining, so there was nothing he could do about it.

Since Yiren was willing to help, Chen Mo quickly took out the Blood Demon Hundred Ghost Banner and handed it to Yiren, saying, ”Then I’ll trouble you, Yiren.”

Zuoqiu Yiren nodded and then said, ”The Nirvana Flower you obtained from it can be planted by the Celestial Pool. The environment here is no less than that of the Profound Spirit Mirror. If planted here, the Nirvana Flower can mature in just a few years.

The same goes for the Immortal Jade Bamboo Shoots. After planting them, if they are carefully cultivated, they can grow into Immortal Jade Bamboo again.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo was taken aback, feeling somewhat surprised.

In the past, he had to ask himself before Yiren would tell him.

Now, without saying anything, she had already told him so much.

But Chen Mo didn’t think much of it, attributing it all to the Monkey Wine he had given her.

He believed it to be her return gift.

”Thank you, Yiren,” Chen Mo expressed his gratitude once more.

Zuoqiu nodded and, before leaving, even transmitted to Chen Mo, ”If there’s anything you don’t understand about the Soul-Stabilizing Bead, feel free to ask me.”

Chen Mo raised an eyebrow. He certainly needed to ask her about the Soul-Stabilizing Bead.

After planting the Nirvana Flower and Immortal Jade Bamboo Shoots by the Celestial Pool, Chen Mo’s gaze swept over Zhao Qianyi and Jiang Ruoqing.

He needed a bath.

The two gave him a knowing glance, while Zhao Fujin and Xiao Jiu blushed.

Nangong Xue, sensing the situation, left appropriately.

...

Inside the room.

A wooden tub, large enough to accommodate four or five people, stood in front of the bed. Steam continuously rose from the scalding hot water, permeating the air with a rich floral fragrance.

In the tub, three people were playing.

The sound of water rippling echoed around.

Soon, circles of rippling water inside the tub rolled over, one wave after another.

The entire room was filled with mist, with fragrance lingering.

Zhao Qianyi lay on the edge of the tub, biting her lip, her eyes coy and sultry.

Chen Mo’s body pressed against hers from behind, ”Yiren... what’s up? Why do I feel she’s acting strange?”

Zhao Qianyi bit her lip, staying silent until Chen Mo quieted down a bit, then she replied softly, ”I don’t know either. We’ve been watching you all day with Elder Zuoqiu. Maybe she’s a bit... excited about getting so much Monkey Wine... you know, she’s a wine fanatic.”

”So what’s the deal with Song Jun anyway, Elder Zuoqiu said he got lucky.”

Jiang Ruoqing wiped Chen Mo’s back with a towel, then said, ”I’ve never seen Elder Zuoqiu so surprised before.”

”He... he really got lucky.” Chen Mo took a deep breath. Since she was his woman, he didn’t choose to hide it, ”He got lucky and acquired a damaged Immortal Artifact, and there’s someone powerful backing him. As for that mysterious appeared Demon Beast...”

”Dragon-Devouring Sparrow,” Zhao Qianyi suddenly said.

”You know?” Chen Mo was taken aback.

”Fujin mentioned it before, Elder Zuoqiu said it was a Dragon-Devouring Sparrow Spirit, controlled by someone,” Jiang Ruoqing added, telling Chen Mo all she knew.

”Thank goodness you were smarter than them, we were... worried sick at that time...” Zhao Qianyi bit a strand of her hair.

Chen Mo nodded.

This matter was indeed quite dangerous.

The main problem was that it wasn’t described in the simulation, making him a bit careless.

”Fortunately, we gained a lot this time,” Chen Mo said.

He shifted his body, and said, ”Your turn, Ruoqing.”

...

Chen Mo’s bath lasted until nightfall.

Putting on a clean robe, Chen Mo headed towards Zuoqiu Yiren’s room.

Out of courtesy, Chen Mo knocked on the door.

Due to the soundproofing, Chen Mo didn’t know what was happening inside, only that after a moment, Zuoqiu Yiren’s transmission sounded in his ear, ”Come in.”

The voice was somewhat soft and weak.

Chen Mo pushed the door open and entered.

A strong fragrance immediately filled Chen Mo’s nostrils, making him yawn subconsciously, ”Yiren, what’s this scent? It’s so strong.”

”The fragrance of Seven Soul Flower. I... I tried adding the Seven Soul Flower into the Monkey Wine to enhance the aroma.”

”Oh. Yiren, why is your face so red?”

Chen Mo noticed Zuoqiu Yiren sitting on a wooden plank, her face was very flushed, as if she had just experienced intense exercise.

Her loosely-fitted green dress was slightly disheveled, with a strand of hair stuck to her face, and as Chen Mo’s eyes scanned over her, she seemed a bit evasive.

”I just practiced some Drunken Sword. I’ll teach you another day,” Zuoqiu Yiren recalled the scenes she just watched and immediately changed the topic, ”You’re here to ask about the Soul-Stabilizing Bead, right?”

Seeing Zuoqiu Yiren’s state, Chen Mo found it a bit strange, but since it was urgent, he didn’t dwell on it.

He took out the Soul-Stabilizing Bead, handed it to Zuoqiu Yiren, and said, ”This bead from Song Jun is a Soul-Stabilizing Bead, and it’s still an Immortal Artifact. Yiren, can you take a look?”

Zuoqiu Yiren, realizing she had successfully brushed it off, sighed in relief, calmed her mood, and took the shimmering golden Soul-Stabilizing Bead to examine it.

Chen Mo also quietly observed her.

A long green dress outlined the mature woman’s figure extremely seductively, especially with her current demeanor, which made one want to tease her.

However, what caught the eye most was her pair of perfect jade feet, beautifully shaped and rounded, with delicate and graceful toes not overlapping, exquisite and petite, like a piece of top-tier jade artifact.

Above it were golden bells, and then her evenly shaped legs.

Further up was her slender waist that could easily be embraced, and the citrus wrapped by her dress.

Truly a celestial fairy, rarely seen on earth.

Such appearance, enough to make one overlook the shortcomings on her body.

”What are you looking at?”

Zuoqiu Yiren, after examining the Soul-Stabilizing Bead, noticed Chen Mo looking at her, frowned slightly but inexplicably felt a bit happy...

She didn’t know where this happiness came from.

Chen Mo touched his nose and then praised without reservation, ”Yiren, you’re really beautiful.”

Zuoqiu Yiren rolled her eyes at him, saying, ”This is indeed a Soul-Stabilizing Bead, an Immortal Artifact, once the celestial treasure of Master Duer. Legend has it that during his Immortal Tribulation, the Celestial Tribulation destroyed both him and this treasure. But now it seems, that legend is false.”

”What are you looking at?”

Zuoqiu Yiren
