I cultivate immortality through The Sims.

Should we seek help from the saintess?

Seeing this, Yang Mu couldn't help but start to consider the possibility of seeking help from the Holy Maiden.

Foundation Building Pills are expensive and are practically an essential elixir for advancing from Qi Refining to Foundation Building.

For the Holy Maiden, the Foundation Establishment Pill was nothing compared to half a notebook.

However, that half-book of notes was his last resort.

If I really hand over that half of the notebook, will the Holy Maiden kill me on the spot and then take back the Foundation Establishment Pill?

Even if the saintess was concerned about that one in a million chance.

Having already handed over half of the notebook, he was now of no value to the saintess.

Not killing myself is also a precaution.

What gives the saintess the right to give herself another counterfeit token?

Chen Haiquan fled the sect, likely using Guo Yufei's imitation order.

Chen Haiquan's counterfeit order will most likely be on the Holy Maiden.

The Holy Maiden could easily exchange a counterfeit token for an inner sect Foundation Establishment disciple to pledge allegiance to her.

There's absolutely no need to waste it on yourself.

Thinking about this, Yang Mu felt it was safer to exchange the half-book of notes for the imitation order.

The simulation is still ongoing:

You know, to the saintess, you're only worth half a notebook.

Therefore, you didn't have much hope that the Holy Maiden would reward you with a Foundation Establishment Pill.

But that doesn't stop you from giving it a try.

[Your current cultivation level is at the fifth level of Qi Refining.]

The Holy Maiden chuckled softly when she heard you were seeking the Foundation Establishment Pill.

You will naturally understand why the saintess laughed.

[With such useless spiritual roots as the Five Elemental Roots, how dare they dream of Foundation Establishment?]

However, to avoid upsetting you, the saintess did not rule out any possibility of a definitive answer.

They said they would search for the Foundation Establishment Pill for you.

You know, this is tantamount to rejection.

[The Saintess's path to obtaining the Foundation Establishment Pill has thus been severed.]

You can only wait for the Five Sects Alliance to arrive the day before yesterday.

You pondered, and realized you had no choice but to go out and look for opportunities.

The Five Sects Alliance will convene tomorrow.

Today is your last chance to leave the Thousand Cloud Sect.

[You know, this is also your chance to obtain the "Yin-Yang Harmony Technique".]

After memorizing the second half of the notebook, you found Zhang Erdan.

You claimed that the saintess had agreed to see him.

Zhang Erdan's excitement was visibly evident.

You already knew everything about Zhang Erdan, and a cold smile crept across your face.

Although you know Zhang Erdan's target is the Holy Maiden, the Holy Maiden doesn't know that.

With Zhang Erdan by my side, we have a witness, too.

[Given the saint's cautious nature, she wouldn't risk breaking her promise.]

Upon arriving at the Saintess's cave, you left Zhang Erdan outside, saying you needed to go in and report.

[After entering the Saintess's cave, you get straight to the point, wanting to exchange the second half of the notebook for a counterfeit token.]

The saintess readily accepted the notebook and tossed you a fake token.

Immediately, the saintess began browsing the second half of the notebook.

[In no time at all, the saintess had finished reading the notes.]

Seeing that you were still in the cave, the Holy Maiden was somewhat surprised.

[Then, you reported Zhang Erdan's matter to the Holy Maiden.]

They said Zhang Erdan had something important to report.

The saintess pondered for a moment, then agreed.

You know what Zhang Erdan is going to do, so this time you took the initiative to leave.

To your surprise, the saintess refused.

Even though Zhang Erdan emphasized that what he was about to say was extremely confidential.

The saintess will leave you inside the cave.

You were immediately stumped.

[Zhang Erdan's Myriad Desires Incense is irresistible to anyone below the Golden Core stage.]

Even the Holy Maiden couldn't withstand it, let alone you.

Once the medication takes effect, you'll be like meat on a chopping board.

Just as you were pondering a solution, Zhang Erdan spoke up:

I have heard that the Holy Maiden has been working tirelessly on the affairs of the Five Sects Alliance, and I feel deeply sorry for her.

[This incense stick, specially offered to the saintess for its calming and tranquilizing properties.]

You know in your heart that this must be the incense of ten thousand desires.

Before the Holy Maiden could speak, Zhang Erdan lit the incense himself.

The saintess did not refuse.

You know perfectly well that once the drug takes effect, you will surely die; Zhang Erdan will kill you.

[If the effects of the holy maiden's medicine haven't kicked in yet, you should suddenly launch an attack and kill Zhang Erdan.]

The Holy Maiden will surely suspect this is a conspiracy between you and Zhang Erdan.

This became the saintess's excuse to kill you.

[While you were pondering a solution, Zhang Erdan began reporting confidential information to the Holy Maiden.]

Zhang Erdan spoke very slowly, seemingly trying to whet the Saintess's appetite.

[As you naturally know, Zhang Erdan is waiting for the effects of the Myriad Desires Incense to take hold.]

[Zhang Erdan's words roughly mean that the Five Sects Alliance, along with the Golden Core experts from the other four sects, will join forces to kill the Golden Core expert from the Thousand Clouds Sect.]

Afterwards, the four Golden Core experts will join forces to open the Nascent Soul Secret Realm to avoid any unforeseen complications.

You currently have absolutely no interest in the Nascent Soul Realm.

You've already felt all sorts of thoughts starting to pop into your head.

You know we can't delay any longer.

Just as you were about to erupt, the Holy Maiden suddenly struck Zhang Erdan with a palm strike.

Caught off guard, Zhang Erdan immediately suffered a severe injury.

You were immediately startled and turned to look at the saintess.

[But the saintess's face was now flushed, her breathing heavy, and she was looking at you warily.]

Without a word, you immediately drew your sword and held it to Zhang Erdan's neck.

However, they did not immediately kill Zhang Erdan.

You know, if we kill Zhang Erdan now, it might be seen as silencing him.

Secondly, the Holy Maiden's condition is unstable at the moment. If you kill Zhang Erdan, you're not sure if she'll still be able to strike you with a single palm strike.

"Kill him!" the saintess commanded.

[I will definitely kill him, but you'll need Zhang Erdan's "Yin Yang Harmony Technique".]

You glanced at the saintess who had collapsed to the ground, knowing that the effects of the Myriad Desires Incense had taken hold and she was no longer able to kill you.

You immediately turned to Zhang Erdan and threatened: "For the sake of our past relationship, I'll give you a chance to exchange your treasure for your life."

Zhang Erdan had no other choice.

He knew your innate talent was poor and your cultivation was slow, so he immediately said, "I have a cultivation technique here that can accelerate your cultivation."

"I am still the Holy Son of the Myriad Flowers Sect. If you release me, I will surely repay you handsomely in the future!"

You ignored me.

Under your intense vigilance, Zhang Erdan dared not play any tricks and obediently took out the "Yin Yang Harmony Technique."

[You merely glanced at the cover of the martial arts manual, then with a swift backhand strike, you killed Zhang Erdan on the spot.]

You know, with someone like Zhang Erdan, you either don't offend him, or you don't let him live.

Just then, you suddenly felt a warmth on your back.

Before you could react, the sword in your hand was disarmed.

[The saintess's alluring voice rang out: I...]

Upon seeing this, Yang Mu immediately breathed a sigh of relief:

I almost thought the saintess had killed me.

The result should not be missing.

I wonder if the emulator will get an upgrade or something later, like a video or someone experiencing this feature firsthand.

Imagination has its limits!

But don't worry, I already have the script in my hand, and the main event is coming soon.

That Zhang Erdan wants to take it from me?

A useless person with five spiritual roots, yet he calls himself a holy son?

You think you're me?

Yang Muzhi was smug and turned his gaze back to the simulator.
