Cultivation Simulator: Starting From The Empress' Palace

Liuyang City.

This is the closest human city to the East Sea.

Dao Yuanzi threw Chen Mo and the others here before leaving.

According to Dao Yuanzi, he was meeting an old friend at the East Sea and sensed several Dragon Race presences entering the East Sea Shore. He also sensed Chen Mo among them, so he came to take a look and happened to witness the scene.

However, he had other matters with his old friend, so he didn’t have time to escort Chen Mo and the others back to the Daoist Alliance.

Chen Mo’s core disciple token contains a trace of aura from all thirty-six sect leaders.

As long as they are not separated by a region, all thirty-six sect leaders know Chen Mo’s whereabouts.

This is what Dao Yuanzi told Chen Mo.

Not all core disciples receive this kind of treatment.

Only Chen Mo does.

This shows the Daoist Alliance’s emphasis on him.

After Dao Yuanzi left, Chen Mo and his group planned to rest in Liuyang City for a day, recover their True Qi, and then return to the Daoist Alliance.

On the way to find the inn, Luo Yuan kept explaining to Zuoqiu Yiren about what happened in the Dragon Race Treasure Vault.

Saying he was also forced to make those choices.

A normal person would choose the same.

He also claimed that his decision wasn’t wrong. If Dao Yuanzi hadn’t come, they would have all perished, leaving the only option to preserve life for revenge.

Indeed, Luo Yuan’s choice wasn’t wrong.

Even Chen Mo, Zuoqiu Yiren, and Ice Spirit didn’t speak against him and assured not to spread it within the Daoist Alliance.

But on a personal emotional level, Zuoqiu Yiren was undoubtedly displeased by his actions.

Zuoqiu Yiren was originally uninterested in Luo Yuan, and this incident degraded her perception of him to that of an ordinary passersby.

After listening to Luo Yuan’s explanations numerous times, Zuoqiu Yiren faintly replied, ”It’s okay.”

Luo Yuan felt relieved, thinking he could mend things, yet didn’t realize Zuoqiu Yiren was just being polite.

...

Inn.

Inside Chen Mo’s room.

He narrated the incidents at the East Sea Shore to Mu Qianqian, though he certainly omitted the matter of the Dragon Pearl; he didn’t even tell Su Mengyan about it.

After all, Chen Mo was not ready to trust her like he trusted Yunxi and the others.

Mu Qianqian’s journey here turned out to be rather pointless and she almost couldn’t make it out, leading to an extremely bad mood. Fortunately, she found solace through Chen Mo, and Ice Spirit’s caterpillar of the Immortal Ancient Ice Spirit Silkworm would later provide some silk for her.

After dismissing Mu Qianqian, Chen Mo began to check his gains from this trip.

Despite the dangerous journey, he had considerable harvests. The desired items, Dragon Pearl, Mother Queen’s Holy Shell, Immortal Ancient Ice Spirit Silkworm, were all obtained, along with extras like Lightning Fruit, Ao Bo’s Dragon Corpse, Demon Sect Elder, and the two Saint Child’s space ornaments.

This trip to the East Sea Shore had actually been simulated in advance by Chen Mo.

But the simulated content only indicated that his task would end in perfection.

Yes, that’s the description used.

The inherent risks, such as assistance from the Dragon Race and the Demon Sect’s strikes, were not depicted.

Chen Mo realized a problem.

As his realm improved, the useful information provided by the simulation decreased significantly.

Chen Mo sighed lightly.

He wasn’t disheartened by it. At least it was due to the simulator that he achieved this level. Resenting it for this would be akin to being ungrateful.

He began examining the space ornaments from the Demon Sect Elder and the two Saint Children.

As strong practitioners of the Unity Realm and Void Realm.

The contents of their space ornaments were exceedingly abundant.

But mostly, they were items only usable by evil cultivators.

Useful to Chen Mo were some top-grade treasure medicines and their Dao Artifacts.

Before using them, a thorough purification was necessary.

As an evil cultivator’s Dao Artifact, the negative aura and malice were too intense. Using it as is could lead to being mistaken for an evil cultivator.

Just like when Chen Mo previously used the Blood Demon Hundred Ghost Banner at Shenxiao Sect.

However, Chen Mo couldn’t purify it right now; he lacked the strength. At least the Void Realm was needed; for Magical Artifacts, he could manage but needing to return to the Daoist Alliance for an elder’s help.

The most pressing issue.

He needed to repair his damaged foundation.

It was too severe to rely on self-repair, requiring some extraordinary treasures for the task, which neither he nor Sister Yiren possessed, having to find a solution back at the Daoist Alliance.

If not repaired soon, the could manifest strength weaker than before reaching the Divinity Transformation Realm.

From the space ornaments, he took out a wooden tub, poured spiritual liquid into it, crushed some top-grade treasure medicines into powder, and added them to the liquid. Then, Chen Mo undressed and immersed himself.

This would accelerate the recovery of True Qi and internal injuries.

While Chen Mo closed his eyes to enjoy the medicinal bath.

There was a knock on the door.

”Brother, it’s me,” Su Mengyan’s voice came.

Liuyang City was just a secluded town, only crowded recently due to the East Sea Shore incident, typically lacking visitors; hence, the inn’s quality was low with rooms lacking isolation arrays, similar to ordinary inns.

Chen Mo hadn’t taken the time to set up anything himself.

”The door’s open, come in.” At this moment, Chen Mo really wasn’t keen on engaging in that activity, with injuries not healed, feeling exhausted.

But considering that the energy of the nine-colored Other Shore Flower sealed within them was still unrefined, maybe utilizing it now would hasten recovery and possibly repair some foundation.

After all, the Other Shore Flower is a Holy Medicine.

Su Mengyan opened the door and entered.

Clearly, she had bathed and dressed herself with care before coming, adorned in a red silk gown decked with cloud patterns, her ink-black hair tied into Chen Mo’s preferred double ponytails, with subtle makeup enhancing her vibrant charm.

Seeing Chen Mo bathing, she closed the door, unfastened the red silk gown, revealing her flawless fair body, alluringly walking with sinuous movements towards Chen Mo.

Chen Mo was accustomed to Su Mengyan’s flirtatious behavior.

As she stepped into the tub, Chen Mo directly had her facing away from him, with her hands resting on the tub’s edge, one hand lifting her fine leg, while the other grasped her ponytail...

The bathtub was spacious enough for Chen Mo’s mischief.

...

On the other side.

After dropping her essence blood onto the caterpillar, Ice Spirit sat in front of the dressing table, staring at her delicate face in the mirror, reminiscing about the scene of being bullied by Chen Mo in the Heaven-Melting Tripod.

Her consciousness remained clear during those moments of bullying, making the events vivid and unforgettable.

But just as she pondered it a while, her body inexplicably began warming, prompting her thighs to squeeze.

Then, she remembered Chen Mo’s words to her in the Dragon Race Treasure Vault.

Offering her either to forget the matter with compensation.

Or become his woman, accepting his responsibility.

Inside, she pondered extensively.

Now that she was out, she already had her answer.
