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

[This simulation offers the following redemptions: Purple Talent: Treasure Hunter (100 Dragon Points), Spirit Fruit, Millennium Vermilion Fruit (100 Dragon Points), Redeem Now? Foundation Establishment Pill (100 Dragon Points)]

He naturally bought it outright. These three items were indispensable to him. Treasure hunters could be considered one of the cornerstones of his future cultivation, so their importance was self-evident. His resources depended on this. The Thousand-Year Vermilion Fruit was the most important material for refining the Blood Purification Pill, a blood purification pill. It was a priceless item among the demon race. Whether he sold it or offered it to the Xuan Turtle Demon General, it would be a good thing.

As for the Foundation Establishment Pill, needless to say, it's been mentioned countless times in novels. Countless protagonists fight tooth and nail in the early stages to obtain just one. The fact that he obtained it so easily means he must have taken it. Even if he doesn't need it himself, Bai Ming and Bai Li, whose aptitudes are not good, still need it. It can be considered one of the foundations of their lineage.

He was grinning from ear to ear. He really hadn't expected such a great outcome from this simulation. He had indeed obtained information about the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiend Qi. However, he didn't know whether it was Heavenly Gang Qi or Earthly Fiend Qi. But whatever it was, as long as he obtained it, he could establish his foundation. After all, such treasures were not easily found. If he missed it this time, it would be very difficult to encounter it again. However, he also knew that this matter would be very difficult.

He probably had a plan: to hone his magical power in reality, search for the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiend Qi in the simulation, and finally exchange it for it with Divine Dragon Points. After all, that was a secret realm with so many Qi Refining Great Perfection cultivators. He couldn't possibly guarantee that he would come out alive, so he wouldn't take such a risk.

However, he has two problems to solve before he can start strategizing. The first is that he only has one simulation attempt left, which is definitely not enough. The second is to increase his foundation, which simply means his combat experience, so that he can challenge the fourth or even the fifth level.

For this first question, we need to ask the system. Hopefully, we'll get a good result.

"System, system, I'm seriously running out of simulation attempts. Is there any other way to increase my simulation attempts?"

[Ding dong, the system has detected a greater demand for simulation attempts from the host. Out of concern for the host and in the spirit of humanitarian aid, the system is initiating an upgrade. Ding dong, system upgrade successful, opening a new channel for obtaining simulation attempts. The host can exchange these attempts with spirit stones. The first ten simulation attempts cost 100 low-grade spirit stones each; subsequent attempts will double in price.]

This price is indeed not cheap, after all, those are spirit stones, which are the hard currency among cultivators. But if a problem can be solved with spirit stones, it's not a big problem. Even if it gets too expensive later, he can afford the first ten times. Even with his current wealth, he has more than 400 spirit stones, which is enough to buy four times. This is a very good thing.

He immediately spent 300 spirit stones to buy three more times. This time, the number of simulations returned to four, and he was confident that he would pass the trial.

The second issue is more difficult. He doesn't lack supernatural abilities or spells; what he lacks is combat experience and skills. This is a difficult problem to solve quickly, as skills are developed through constant practice, and he can't simply create extra experience out of thin air. What can he do? He doesn't know any cultivators of the same level.

[Ding-dong, this system has detected that the host is using this system. This system has been upgraded and can now generate a trial space by spending one simulation attempt, allowing the host to increase their combat experience and assist in better cultivation. The host can view it in the system interface.]

This system is quite intelligent; he searched and found this panel.

[Trial Space: Consumes one simulation attempt to generate a puppet that is at most one realm higher or lower than the host, helping the host hone their combat experience. Each simulation lasts for fifteen days, and experience is extracted.]

What are we waiting for? Let's give it a try!

[Host has activated the trial space, consuming one simulation attempt to generate a puppet at the eighth level of Qi Refining. Is this confirmed?]

That's for sure, what are we waiting for?

[On the first day, you activated the simulation, but after only two moves, you were beaten so badly by the puppet that you couldn't get up. The puppet even mocked you, calling you a weakling, the weakest Qi Refining Level 8 cultivator it had ever seen. You refused to accept this and got up to fight again, but you were still defeated in one move.]

On the second day, you fought with increasing vigor, and today you were able to withstand four moves.

[On the third day, you were covered in wounds, and even with the system's help, they were difficult to heal. However, you epically endured ten moves. You felt that you could take on two of your pre-simulation self.]

[On the fourth day, you still wanted to continue fighting, but without any improvement, your physical body collapsed, and the simulation was forced to stop.]

Gu Yuchuan shouted, "System, you're not just a sore loser, I clearly bought fifteen days! How come it ended in just a few days? You heartless system, give me my money back! Give me back my hard-earned money!"

He's like a spectator watching the national football team play, wanting the system to return his hard-earned money, but the system won't listen to him.

[This simulation, four days of combat experience, rating: weak, but with significant improvement, still weak. All redeemed.]

Well, when you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. There's nothing he can do about the system, so he can only grit his teeth and exchange it. Although it only gives four days of experience, the simulation says that his strength has doubled, so he's naturally willing to accept it.

After clicking "Confirm," countless combat experiences flooded his mind. The breakdown of various moves and the timing of spellcasting appeared in his head, even developing muscle memory. This money was definitely well spent!

However, after calming down, he began to think again. Although the trial space was very powerful, he still needed simulation attempts. He only had three attempts left. Whether to continue simulating or gain more experience was a dilemma. After thinking about it, he decided to gain more combat experience one more time. Right now, it was far from enough.

He simulated it again, this time lasting a full seven days, and finally losing after thirty moves—ten more moves than before. Such growth was considerable. After exchanging his skills, he felt his strength had more than doubled. He believed that an ordinary Qi Refining Stage 9 cultivator would definitely be no match for him, and he wasn't sure about Qi Refining Perfection cultivators. He was certain he couldn't defeat those powerful Qi Refining Perfection cultivators like the Viper and Condensed Fat.

Now, he has the idea of ​​continuing the simulation, but he is really too tired today, so he should get a good rest for the night.
