Simulator: Starting as a Green Snake and Transforming into a Dragon

Inside the cave, a large, dark python was writhing and groaning on the ground. This was Gu Yuchuan, who was still feeling quite unwell. It was clear that the monkey troop and Yunxi River had formed a grudge, and they could not coexist.

Thinking of this, he rolled over. How did this monkey troop get involved with humans? After he advanced to a mid-grade demon beast, he received some inheritance and knew that in the world today, humans are still more powerful, and their demon race is at a great disadvantage. However, this is demon territory, so there is always room for scheming.

He kept sighing. If only he had simulated the moves more before making them. Now, he had made them enemies too early, and the kind that couldn't be reversed. It was making it very difficult for him to plan anything now. This busy little snake of his hadn't had a single peaceful day since he transmigrated. It was really infuriating.

He thought about it and realized that he had no way to solve the problem. The solution lay with the Serpent King. This Serpent King had the bloodline of a spirit beast and was a demon at the ninth level of Qi Refining. He must know a Foundation Establishment stage demon general. It seemed that sending a Foundation Establishment stage demon general would perfectly solve the problem at hand.

How could he let the Serpent King know that the monkey troop was colluding with the humans? He thought about it and had a preliminary idea, which would also allow him to take revenge.

This time, however, he learned his lesson. Instead of taking direct action, he first conducted a simulation to see what the consequences would be.

[Congratulations, host, on activating the seventh simulation. We will now begin drawing talents.]

[White Talent: Scale Enhancement; White Talent: Swiftness; Green Talent: Tier 2 Venomous Fang Enhancement.]

He sighed deeply. This level two venomous fang enhancement, which he hadn't chosen last time, was stubbornly still here. It was truly frustrating. Well, he had no choice but to choose this one. At least it was somewhat useful.

[Host selects green talent: Level 2 Venomous Fang Enhancement. Simulation begins.]

On the first day, you took the last remaining Crimson Cloud Fruit to Cloud Tide Palace and successfully met the Crab General. You presented the fruit to him, and he was astonished to see your bloodline had advanced. You told him that you had achieved this advancement by eating the Crimson Cloud Fruit. The Crab General was overjoyed and accepted the fruit.

The next day, you learned that the Crab General was secretly gathering information and inquiring about the origin of the Crimson Cloud Fruit. A member of the aquatic tribe told him that it belonged to the monkey troop.

On the morning of the third day, you hid outside Yunxi Palace and saw the Crab General sneaking ashore. You knew your plan was almost successful.

On the afternoon of the third day, you activated your invisibility and secretly followed Crab General. You saw him enter the Monkey Forest, obtain a considerable amount of Crimson Cloud Fruit, and then a monkey spirit discovered him and swiftly killed him. The Monkey King appeared and stopped Crab General.

On the third night, the Crab General and the Monkey King clashed. Although the Crab General was no match for the Monkey King, his innate ability was defensive, and he slowly retreated back to the water's edge. Just as he was laughing, a flash of sword light ended his life. You carefully hid yourself, not daring to breathe even a little.

On the morning of the fourth day, you went to Yunxi Palace in tears, shouting that the Crab General was dead. You alerted the Black Serpent General, telling him that you had important information to report to the Serpent King.

On the afternoon of the fourth day, after all your scheming, you finally met the Serpent King. You told him that the Crab General was killed by human cultivators, and that the Monkey Spirit colluded with humans. Your vivid description of obtaining the sword light convinced the Serpent King to believe you.

On the fifth day, you continued your cultivation in your cave.

On the sixth day, you remained in your cave, continuing your cultivation.

[On the morning of the seventh day, you received a message from the jade tablet. The Yunxi River has once again clashed with the monkey troop. This time, the Serpent King personally led the attack, utterly defeating the monkeys and leaving them no chance to retaliate.]

[On the afternoon of the seventh day, the human cultivators finally made their move, but a Xuan Turtle appeared and instantly subdued them. The human cultivators immediately chose to self-destruct, and you were killed by the blast from the self-destruction of this Qi Refining Grand Perfection cultivator.]

[This simulation has ended. Survival time: 7 days. Cultivation level: Qi Refining Level 4. Evaluation: A cunning little snake who overplayed his hand. Reward: 35 Dragon Points. (35 points for surviving for 7 days.)]

He kept wagging his tail, clearly very agitated. He had planned everything perfectly, but he had still managed to fail miserably. His opponent had chosen to self-destruct, which was something he hadn't expected.

[Rewards available for this simulation: Green Talent: Level 2 Venomous Fang Enhancement (30 Dragon Points). Redeem now?]

He chose to exchange it directly, since it was the only one he could exchange for. Although the cost wasn't huge, it was better than nothing.

He's currently considering whether to follow the trend of this simulation. He thinks it's a good route. That Xuan Turtle should be the Foundation Establishment stage expert that the Serpent King found. With the other party backing him up, it's unlikely that any problems will arise. It's just that he was killed by self-destruction, dying a bit too early. He doesn't know what happened afterward. Moreover, there's only one simulation left, so he can't afford to reduce the margin for error any further.

After thinking for a moment, he decided to take his last Crimson Cloud Fruit with him when he left. After all, there were only two solutions to his current predicament: either flee to another place or give the Serpent King more leverage.

This is far from Yunxi River, and with only one simulation attempt left, he definitely won't be able to find a safe route. So, now there's really only one path left.

This time, when he arrived at Yunxi Palace, the clam maiden already recognized him. She knew that he was a snake demon who had established a relationship with the crab general. However, after not seeing him for a few days, his cultivation and bloodline had advanced even further, which was truly enviable.

"Miss Clam, please inform Lord Crab General that I have a treasure to offer."

Soon, the clam maiden returned with the message, and she led him to the crab general's cave again. This time, he still really liked the luminous pearl. Just as he was looking at the luminous pearl, the crab general slightly narrowed his eyes. Gu Yuchuan's improvement was too great, so great that the crab general became greedy. He was just a monster with the bloodline of a low-grade demon beast. If he could advance, he could surpass the shrimp soldier and stand shoulder to shoulder with the black snake. He wondered whether he should interrogate him.

Gu Yuchuan pretended not to understand the other person's scrutiny, but in reality, his heart was pounding with anxiety. "You damn crab, you deserve to be tricked to death by me, Grandpa Snake. I gave you so many spiritual fruits, and you look at me like that."

"Lord Crab General, yesterday I obtained two more Crimson Cloud Fruits. I ate one and advanced my bloodline. I'm giving you this one in the hope that your cultivation and bloodline will advance even further."

Gu Yuchuan's face was full of smiles. Crab General couldn't say anything bad, so he accepted it.

"Is your bloodline only defined by consuming this Crimson Cloud Fruit?"

His voice carried a hint of scrutiny.
