I Have a Cultivation Simulator

["This statue..."]

[You carefully observed the statue in Ye Feng's memories.]

[Because you were viewing this through Ye Feng's perspective, you could not directly investigate it with your own spiritual sense to gather more information.]

[Even so, you could still sense the statue's extraordinary nature.]

[The statue was broken. Its entire left half had been reduced to dust, leaving only the right half intact. The right palm faced upward, fingers slightly curled in a loose grip.]

[Through the visual memory of Ye Feng's perspective, you faintly saw that the loosely gripping right hand was holding something.]

[You pondered carefully, deducing that this statue was likely connected to the Shanhai Sect's sect leader, a Master. The Shanhai Ring itself might have originally been worn on this statue's left hand.]

[Whatever unknown incident had shattered the statue's left side must have caused the azure Shanhai Ring to fall to its feet, where Ye Feng eventually picked it up.]

["If the left hand wore the Shanhai Ring, then what is the right hand holding?"]

[First of all, the statue was far from simple. Ye Feng had been teleported outside precisely because he triggered some sort of restriction while examining it.]

[And that was just the broken statue. If it had been fully intact, with its might preserved, Ye Feng's fate probably would not have been as simple as merely being teleported out.]

["I need to bring that statue out immediately."]

[Making your decision, you quickly stood up and left the cave.]

[As for Ye Feng, you left him behind inside.]

[The cave was extremely secluded, and you had left defensive measures inside and out before departing.]

[You would immediately notice any disturbance and rush back.]

[The cave was less than ten li from the secret realm. At your speed, returning would not take long.]

[Regardless, Ye Feng was still a cultivator. He would not starve to death in such a short period of time.]

[A moment later, you appeared outside the Shanhai Secret Realm.]

["President."]

[You Rou stood before you and bowed.]

["Call over a few trusted Chamber of Commerce cultivators," you instructed.]

[You realized that the shattered statue was far from simple.]

[Even so, you had no intention of entering the secret realm personally. Instead, you planned to have your subordinates retrieve the statue for you.]

["Understood."]

[You Rou immediately withdrew.]

[Before long, she returned with four Qi Refining Late Stage cultivators.]

["Greetings, President."]

[The four Qi Refining Late Stage cultivators bowed respectfully.]

["President, these four are all core members of the Chamber of Commerce," You Rou said from the side.]

["Mm."]

[You gave a slight nod.]

[The so-called core members were those whose Dao companions, relatives, and families were all under the Chamber's control.]

[Furthermore, every core member signed a corresponding Spirit Contract. The binding force of these contracts was extremely strong; if violated, the ensuing backlash would leave them dead or severely injured.]

[These Spirit Contracts also held the cultivator's magical imprint, containing their unique divine soul aura.]

[Through this magical imprint, one could cast curse spells to lock onto their general location and relentlessly hunt them down.]

[With their closest loved ones held internally and the Spirit Contract binding them externally, only then could they become core members and earn the Chamber of Commerce's utmost trust.]

[Of course, becoming a core member naturally came with many benefits. Not only did the Chamber provide all their standard cultivation resources, but it even arranged their Dao companions for them.]

[To a certain extent, the Chamber's core members functioned as "death warriors."]

[Even with the Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce's smooth development over the years, they had only managed to cultivate a few dozen core members.]

["The four of you will enter the secret realm. Go to this location and bring out that statue."]

[You took out a blank white jade slip. After imprinting the route to the palace—gleaned from soul-searching Ye Feng—along with images of the palace's interior and the statue's exact appearance, you tossed it to the four Qi Refining Late Stage cultivators.]

["Understood."]

[The four Qi Refining Late Stage cultivators obeyed immediately without a shred of hesitation.]

["Half of that statue is shattered, so it likely still retains some residual restriction power. Don't approach it directly. First, use restriction-breaking talismans to wear down its power."]

[You then took out seven or eight restriction-breaking talismans.]

[Restriction-breaking talismans were an extremely specialized type of talisman possessing the bizarre ability to rapidly erode formations and restrictions.]

[The ones you provided were all Tier Two, capable of wearing down the power of most Tier Two formations and restrictions.]

[The Shanhai Sect's sect leader, a Master, possessed profound mastery in the Dao of Formations. But no matter how profound his mastery, the formations and restrictions he left behind would not have much power remaining after the endless erosion of time.]

[Tier Two restriction-breaking talismans would be more than enough.]

[Alongside the restriction-breaking talismans, you also bestowed a few Tier Two offensive talismans. Once activated, they could unleash an attack equivalent to the first layer of Foundation Establishment.]

[You provided these offensive talismans primarily out of concern that your four Chamber cultivators might get besieged by other rogue cultivators.]

[Finally, you bestowed a command medallion representing the Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce and your own authority.]

[If they truly faced a siege inside the secret realm that even the Tier Two offensive talismans could not handle, they were to take out this medallion.]

[As of right now, the greatest faction within the secret realm was still the Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce.]

[Especially with you, the Foundation Establishment President, personally guarding the exit, no cultivator would likely dare strike at the Chamber's members.]

[After all, they could not hide in the secret realm forever, could they?]

[Over the past ten days or so, cultivators from Wushan Market's Ouyang family had entered the secret realm to explore.]

[However, because Ouyang Shen, the Foundation Establishment market head, had suffered a backlash from a failed breakthrough, he was probably cowering inside the market's grand formation. The Ouyang family cultivators would not dare attack the Chamber's members either.]

["Understood."]

[The four Qi Refining Late Stage cultivators said solemnly.]

["Go."]

[You spoke in a calm tone.]

[Watching the four late-stage Chamber cultivators enter the secret realm, you waited patiently.]

[With clear route instructions, they would emerge very soon as long as no unexpected accidents occurred.]

[The countermeasures you provided were all prepared for the worst-case scenario. In truth, with four Qi Refining Late Stage cultivators working together, backed by their status as Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce members, no rogue cultivator would likely dare harbor any thoughts against them.]

[Several days passed in the blink of an eye.]

[The gray vortex churned with faint spatial fluctuations as the four Qi Refining Late Stage Chamber cultivators walked out.]

["President."]

[The four late-stage Chamber cultivators approached you and took out a Storage Bag. "President, the item you asked us to bring out is inside," they reported respectfully.]

[You took the Storage Bag and sent your spiritual sense inside to inspect it.]

[Inside the Storage Bag were the many talismans you had bestowed. They had used two of the restriction-breaking talismans, but the rest remained completely untouched.]

[The shattered statue was also inside. Its remaining right hand was still loosely gripping, and you could faintly see a translucent piece of jade held in its palm.]

[You carefully observed the statue. Only after confirming it was merely a statue did you extract the piece of jade resting in its palm.]

[The jade looked extremely archaic. You cautiously extended your spiritual sense inside to examine it.]

[A moment later, a smile surfaced on your face.]

[Recorded within this jade was the Shanhai Sect's legacy. The complete Shanhai Art, including the Core Formation chapter that you had no knowledge of, was all inside.]
