Question: I spent eight hundred bucks to buy a Cultivation Realm, how do I capitalize on this opportunity to get rich?
Chatgpt: Hmm, the user asked about spending eight hundred bucks to buy a Cultivation Realm, which is obviously impossible. However, the user might be looking to use this idea for a novel or game plot. I should start answering from that perspective...
Motherfucking idiot.
Heyu closed his computer. Clearly, using AI to analyze the current situation was a bit far-fetched. But honestly, Heyu really didn't know how to handle it.
Who in their right mind would actually buy a real Cultivation Realm?
Heyu glanced back at the glass case. It was nighttime inside the case, and the little sprite inside was getting ready to rest.
No matter what, I'll just keep it for now.
After some thought, Heyu made a decision.
From all the signs before, it seemed like everything he did could be amplified in that Cultivation Realm. A toothpick could pierce a Wolf Demon, a piezoelectric igniter could turn into Heavenly Thunder, and even a three-hundred-dollar lobster claw was an unparalleled great demon in that realm.
It's like keeping a pet.
Thinking about it, Heyu suddenly chuckled.
While others keep fish or turtles, he ended up keeping a whole world.
To be honest, Heyu wasn't thinking about profiting from that world. After all, a Cultivation Realm that couldn't even handle a piezoelectric igniter—was it really a Cultivation Realm?
Too weak.
Heyu left his computer desk and went to the glass case.
Inside, the little sprite was staring blankly at the lobster claw.
"What are you thinking about?"
Hearing Heyu's voice, Luo Qingyi hurriedly responded with respect: "Senior, may I take this Beast Claw Limb? My fellow disciples have been besieged by Half-Demons for almost a year, and they can't hold on much longer."
Hearing this, Heyu became interested in learning about Luo Qingyi's background.
"Tell me more."
Upon hearing this, Luo Qingyi respectfully recounted everything.
***
It turned out her sect was established by cultivators driven from the Middle Lands to the Northern Wildlands. Her master founded the Azure Thunder Sect in this barren land.
Although the Great Wildlands were desolate and Spiritual Qi was scarce, the place was far from conflict. The Azure Thunder Sect developed slowly but steadily in a positive direction.
Until a year ago, when the Half-Demon tribes, who had always left the Azure Thunder Sect alone, launched a massive attack. Though the Half-Demons weren't very powerful, this attack was exceptionally fierce, nearly wiping out the Azure Thunder Sect.
Fortunately, other sects in the Great Wildlands joined in, successfully resisting the Half-Demons.
But then the Half-Demons changed tactics, surrounding the Azure Thunder Sect and cutting off all resources, intending to starve them out.
Luo Qingyi was sent out to seek help.
Even if she failed, she had to bring back some supplies; otherwise, the entire sect would be doomed.
Under the sect's cover, Luo Qingyi broke through the siege, only to be pursued by Demon Wolves.
That's when she encountered Heyu.
***
After listening to Luo Qingyi's explanation, Heyu understood everything.
"Take it. If it's not enough, I have more."
Hearing Heyu's response, Luo Qingyi shook her head repeatedly: "It's enough, it's enough. This Beast Claw Limb is rich in Spiritual Qi and can strengthen the body, comparable to a spiritual elixir. With this Spirit-Flesh, we can drive back those Half-Demons."

Luo Qingyi knew she owed this senior too much already, and asking for more would be too greedy.
Heyu looked at Luo Qingyi with a strange expression.
If she knew this so-called Spirit-Flesh only cost three hundred and eighty-eight, what would she think?
Luo Qingyi took out a Storage Pouch engraved with runes and waved it at the lobster claw, which instantly disappeared.
She carefully placed the Storage Pouch on herself. Such a large-capacity Storage Pouch was rare even in the Middle Lands; it was a treasure her master had brought from there.
Heyu watched this magical scene, thinking to himself that this was the means of cultivation.
"Is it full?"
"Huh? Oh, yes, Senior, it's full."
Hearing this, Heyu was quite disappointed. He had planned to play with it.
A Storage Pouch that could only hold one lobster claw was really useless.
"Senior, may I ask your esteemed name?"
Luo Qingyi mustered her courage and asked the sky.
After asking, she nervously looked up, her heart full of anxiety.
After all, she was only in the Qi Refinement stage, daring to ask the name of such a powerful being was truly bold.
"Heyu."
Luo Qingyi was stunned. Heyu?
She had expected to hear something like 'Demon Devouring Heavenly Venerable,' 'Heavenly Profound Sword Venerable,' or 'Dao True Immortal,' but instead, she heard such an ordinary name.
The name was too plain, completely at odds with the previous earth-shattering means.
Now it was Luo Qingyi's turn to feel awkward.
If it were an esteemed title, she could address him by it, but this was clearly a real name—who would dare call it directly?
After some thought, Luo Qingyi decided to continue calling him Senior.
After that, Heyu chatted with Luo Qingyi, sometimes saying something, sometimes not.
Although this Cultivation Realm wasn't very useful, it was nice for chatting and hearing about things he'd never heard of before.
Luo Qingyi also gradually relaxed from her initial nervousness, realizing that this incredibly powerful senior was surprisingly easy to talk to, without a trace of arrogance.
Could this be what they call 'returning to simplicity'?
***
Time passed slowly, and after chatting with Luo Qingyi for a while, Heyu yawned and prepared to sleep.
"I'm going to sleep. You should rest early too."
Heyu had completely treated Luo Qingyi as a conversation partner.
Luo Qingyi was stunned. Such a powerful being needed sleep?
By the Golden Elixir stage, one no longer needed sleep.
It seemed the senior truly had returned to simplicity.
"Good night, Senior."
Luo Qingyi respectfully bowed to the sky, though she wasn't sure if the senior could see her.
Then, Luo Qingyi yawned as well.
She was exhausted from everything that had happened today.
She found a random rock, leaned against it, and fell asleep.
After washing up, Heyu glanced into the glass case and saw Luo Qingyi sleeping.
At this moment, Luo Qingyi was curled up, occasionally shivering. Clearly, the temperature in the Great Wildlands at night was extremely low, and even at the thirteenth level of Qi Refinement, she couldn't quite withstand it.
"Not afraid of catching a cold, huh? Wait, can cultivators catch a cold?"
Heyu rummaged through his cabinet and found a Monopoly set, then took out the little plastic house and placed it over Luo Qingyi, giving her a small shelter.
Inside the little house, Luo Qingyi's furrowed brow gradually relaxed. Seeing this, Heyu smiled, lay down on his bed, and fell into a deep sleep.
Not long after Heyu fell asleep, the tiny wooden sword on the table started to tremble slightly, then slowly grew larger, transforming into a three-foot-long wooden sword, engraved with mysterious runes.
