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

While he was searching for this spiritual spring, he suddenly sensed the presence of humans. Although this place was the border between human and demon territories, it was still within the territory of the demon race. Who was this person who dared to come to the demon race's territory, especially at such a delicate time? They were simply courting death.

In the past, some humans could be seen in the Cloud Sea Marsh. Otherwise, low-level cultivators would come here to try their luck. After all, it was on the outskirts and the danger wasn't too great. The resources in the Cloud Sea Marsh were indeed much more abundant than those in human territory. The demon race wouldn't turn against the humans over these low-level resources, so it wasn't considered dangerous.

However, everything changed after the incident at the Beast Taming Sect. The Demon Lord of Yunhaize had issued a decree that humans were forbidden from entering the entire Yunhaize. Anyone found doing so would be killed without exception, with no chance of survival. This person dared to enter at this time. It was unclear whether he was insatiable or simply too skilled and daring. Since he had seen him, Gu Yuchuan had no reason to let him go. After all, he was also a demon of Yunhaize and naturally had to obey the Demon Lord's decree.

This human was a middle-aged man with a pointed mouth and monkey-like face, looking somewhat sleazy. Judging from his aura, he was at the seventh level of Qi Refining. At this meeting place, he was quite an expert. Most of the cultivators here were at the early stage of Qi Refining, and there were very few at the middle stage. No wonder he dared to come in; he really had some skills. It was a pity that he encountered Gu Yuchuan.

His movements were furtive, and it was unclear what he was looking for. Gu Yuchuan didn't rush to make a move. In fact, the way he looked made him seem too much like someone searching for some treasure. If someone was risking coming in at this time, they must have some clues about the treasure, and that treasure must be quite valuable. Gu Yuchuan also wanted to seize a ready-made opportunity. Why not take the opportunity from an enemy?

He followed the other person to the edge of a cliff. This cultivator was named Ma Mingxi, a rogue cultivator. He had discovered a nearly mature jade marrow here before, which was why he came back despite the danger. This jade marrow was a valuable item; with a little refining, it could become a spirit-gathering substance. Adding it to a magic weapon could also add a lot of magic power to the weapon, making it extremely precious. It was similar to the spring that Gu Yuchuan had come to find this time.

At this moment, Gu Yuchuan also found the chalcedony through his treasure hunter. In the simulation, he did not obtain any information about the chalcedony. It was probably because he arrived too late and the other party took it away in advance. Now that he arrived a little earlier, he happened to encounter it. Sure enough, he was a lucky little snake.

Now that he had found this opportunity, there was no need to follow the other party anymore; it was rather annoying. He immediately revealed his true form, startling the other party into taking a few steps back.

Under the sunlight, his blue scales shimmered, and a murderous intent brewed in his triangular pupils, sending chills down one's spine—at least that's what Ma Mingxi felt.

“Human cultivator, I remember that our Yunhai Marsh has long issued a decree prohibiting human cultivators from entering our Yunhai Marsh. You knowingly violated this decree, so today, you shall die here.”

Ma Mingxi felt the divine might emanating from Gu Yuchuan and knew that he could not resist it. He immediately knelt down and said, "Senior, I was blinded by greed and came in. I will leave now. I am just a rogue cultivator and I have nothing of value on me. This is three hundred spirit stones, which is all my possessions. Please forgive me this time."

Although he was very tempted by the three hundred spirit stones, there was no need to spare the other party. If he killed him, wouldn't everything be his? Besides, the other party didn't seem like an honest person and must have his own ulterior motives. Sure enough, before Gu Yuchuan could speak, the other party threw out a storage bag, which released a lot of poisonous mist in the air. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he quickly ran away.

However, when he turned around, he was terrified and broke out in a cold sweat. Gu Yuchuan had actually flown out while riding his poisonous mist. His attack had become the opponent's magic. Anyone who saw this would be extremely surprised.

It should be noted that whether it's the ability to ride the clouds or the horned serpent's talent, the poisonous mist can be controlled by the poisonous mist he releases. Under this dual control, he was indeed showing off his skills in front of an expert. Gu Yuchuan didn't even say anything more. The poisonous mist enveloped him, and the next second, he turned into a skeleton. All the life essence entered Gu Yuchuan's body, taking him one step closer to the ninth level of Qi Refining.

After much searching, he finally found this jade marrow, which was indeed a treasure. When he refined it together with the spring, it wouldn't be a problem for his cultivation speed to increase by 30%. This was a great joy, as increasing cultivation speed was the best thing for a cultivator.

As for finding the spring, that was much easier. He had found it twice in the simulation, so there would be no problem in reality. He found the spring without spending much money. However, unlike this chalcedony, the spring could not be taken away at will. It could only be refined here. Fortunately, the refining of the Spirit Gathering Jade Pendant was very easy. It did not require any skills. It was just a matter of severing the connection between the spring and the earth and shaping it.

The process simply involves inserting a step of refining chalcedony into the middle. In essence, this doesn't count as weapon refining at all. It's as simple as melting Dove chocolate and pouring it into a mold to create a new chocolate. Any cultivator could do it, including him.

He immediately began refining, severing the connection between the spring and the source with his magic power. Instantly, the spiritual energy in the vicinity seemed to weaken slightly, but the degree was negligible and imperceptible, perhaps even psychological. Slowly, under the influence of his magic power, both the spring and the chalcedony transformed into a mass of white liquid. They merged together, forming a shimmering, misty liquid. Next came the shaping process.

He has certain standards for aesthetics. He even carved a dragon pattern on this jade pendant, which looks lifelike, which matches his horned snake temperament. But now there is a problem: where will he wear this jade pendant? Where can a small snake wear jade?

After thinking about it, I used my magic to fix it to my tail. When I got home, I made a bag to hang on my body, and I felt much more comfortable. Now that I've finished what I needed to do today, it's time to go home. Before the war, I should cultivate more and try to advance successfully.

However, after returning this time, he first summoned Bai Li and Bai Ming. With a great battle imminent, their strength needed to be increased as much as possible; with their current cultivation level, they were too easily killed. This wouldn't do.
