391: Chapter 391 Full-Color Fantasy? The Second Divine Power

In the quiet room, Chu Sheng sat cross-legged on a futon, his breathing having gradually stabilized.

His consciousness sank deep into his Dantian, where that tiny silver-gray sphere was slowly spinning in his perception.

The embryo of the Hell of Obsession had gradually become solid during this period of secluded cultivation, no longer as blurred as it was at the beginning.

He channeled the Demonic Qi of Infatuation once again, injecting it bit by bit into that small sphere.

As it absorbed the Devilish Qi, the small sphere began to spin faster, fine lines floating up onto its surface as if something was extending outward from within, slowly expanding.

Then, it cracked open.

Not shattering, but a clear gap splitting right down the center, as if it were dividing into two independent entities.

The tiny silver-gray sphere maintained a steady rotation during the splitting process, much like a dividing cell.

A moment later, it completely split into two silver-gray spheres of similar size, floating in his Dantian and maintaining a constant distance.

His second Divine Ability was complete.

Chu Sheng opened his eyes and looked down at his palm.

Sensing the two spheres operating smoothly in his Dantian, he tentatively mobilized the power of his second Divine Ability.

A wisp of silver-gray mist floated out from his palm, looking like a slowly unraveling thread.

He withdrew his hand, and the wisp of mist floated back into his palm, retracting into his body along the lines of his fingertips as though it had never existed.

Just as he was about to test the limits of his second Divine Ability further, the voice of the simulator suddenly sounded in his consciousness.

The voice remained steady and clear, carrying a robotic tone that had been repeated countless times, but this time, the content surprised him slightly.

[Detected increase in host's cultivation base; simulator has synchronized updates. Consume 91 simulation points to upgrade the simulator display interface and trait Rank function?]

Chu Sheng stared at that number, stunned for a moment.

91 points—it was not a large number, but its precision down to the single digit felt a bit strange to him.

Whenever he had upgraded the prize pool or store in the past, it always started in the hundreds or thousands; it had never been a double-digit number.

He glanced at his current balance—20091.

Exactly twenty thousand and ninety-one.

If he spent those 91 points, he would have exactly twenty thousand left.

He stared at that number for a moment, then couldn't help but chuckle.

It was almost as if the simulator was quoting a price based directly on his balance, picking a number that allowed him to round it off neatly.

"Upgrade," he said.

[Consumed 91 simulation points. Current balance: 20000. Interface upgrade complete.]

The display on the panel refreshed, reorganizing the layout that had previously felt slightly crowded.

Access to various features became much clearer, no longer requiring him to flip through several pages as before to find what he wanted.

The trait tab now had an independent sub-page; opening it showed a list of all currently equipped traits.

Behind each trait was a Rank label, marking its current Rank in tiny characters at the edge.

It was like information that had been hidden for a long time and finally uncovered.

Chu Sheng glanced at the new list and had a general understanding.

Purple traits and below defaulted to Rank 1; Gold had two Ranks; Red had three Ranks; and Prismatic had five Ranks.

The ability of each trait Rank would gradually strengthen as its Rank increased, and once a trait's experience was full, its quality could be upgraded—similar to after a simulation ended.

When a certain accumulated proficiency reached max level, its quality could be upgraded.

For instance, after the Gold [Heavenly Demon Body] upgraded from Rank 1 to Rank 2, simulation points could be spent to upgrade it into [Ancestral Demon Body] or [Heavenly Demon Sacred Body].

However, some traits were independent exceptions, such as [mysterious ring (Gold)].

It was marked as "Independent trait, Rank 1 Only," with no upgrade button or progress bar beside it, looking like something that was set in stone.

This left Chu Sheng feeling a bit disappointed.

Chu Sheng scrolled through the page, reviewing the main traits he currently equipped one by one.

[Heavenly Venerable Duobao (Red)] had already reached Rank 2, accompanied by a small line of text.

Refinement speed is extremely fast, quality of companion Magic Treasures is enhanced, and Magic Treasures that have recognized a master cannot be stolen by others.

This feature was more useful to him than any offensive stat boost.

Both the zhu xian sword and the immortal slaying gourd were obtained thanks to this trait; without Heavenly Venerable Duobao, his hands might still be empty right now.

He was somewhat curious about what this trait would look like if it reached the Prismatic tier.

Yet he also knew that was likely a cost he could only imagine for now and not easily plan for.

[Heavenly Secret Deduction (Gold)]

The top of the page was marked with the four words "Independent trait"—it could not be upgraded, but showed no Rank limits either.

It simply sat quietly in the list like a completed book that no longer needed new chapters.

[Many Children, Many Blessings (Prismatic)]

The icon still carried that dazzling prismatic glow; it had already reached Rank 3 and accompanied him through six simulations.

From its initial basic functions to the gradually unlocked Dao Companion cultivation feedback, and then to the recent All Stars Surrounding the Moon, every new function was like a new branch growing from the original trunk.

Chu Sheng looked at that line of explanatory text without saying much, simply continuing to scroll down the page.

[Ancestral Demon Body (Red)]

Having been upgraded recently, it was displayed as Rank 1.

This number meant he needed to accumulate experience through use before unlocking the abilities of the next Rank.

However, he was in no hurry now; after all, with something newly acquired, he had to get accustomed to using it first.

Looking at his row of colorful trait icons—a uniform array of Gold, Red, and Prismatic with not even a single Purple left—Chu Sheng felt a bit floating with pride.

He thought to himself that if he could turn every trait into Prismatic one day, he would truly be invincible.

If just 'Many Children, Many Blessings' alone held such power, then if he went all-Prismatic, he could basically walk rampant across the Five Regions.

Yet he also knew this wasn't something to rush, as upgrading Prismatic traits grew exponentially harder with each one.

Just as he was about to study the details of trait Ranks further, he suddenly felt a jade talisman in his Storage Pouch vibrate.

At that exact moment, a sudden, urgent fluctuation of aura came from outside the quiet room, interrupting his thoughts.

He raised his head toward the doorway, hearing the voice of Yu Rumeng's maid servant coming from outside, carrying a rare and distinctly nervous urgency.

"My Lord, something terrible has happened! Lady Devil King is in danger!"

Chu Sheng's hand paused, and he burst out through the door.
