Disregarding Coreyʼs surprise, I asked if she needed anything else as I handed her a storage card with 150 blood rule pills.

”No, thank you for the blood pills,” she replied gratefully, taking the card and hurrying back to her corner of the cave. Without wasting any time, she popped one of the blood pills and immediately began comprehending the infinite possibilities of blood rule.

Observing Coreyʼs eagerness to return to her study of blood rule after she had reluctantly asked me for help, I realized that she must have made significant strides in her mastery of the blood rule. It was apparent to me that she had encountered a bottleneck in her comprehension of blood rule at a crucial juncture, which prompted her to seek my assistance. I couldnʼt think of any other reason why Corey, who was usually fiercely against me, would have forced herself to ask for my help.

I couldnʼt help but wonder if Corey had achieved an advanced level of blood rule mastery and reached the bifurcation point in her studies of blood rule. I was curious about which meaning of blood rule she would ultimately end up choosing. Perhaps, she would come up with something new and useful, something that my calamity daughter gems and I had not yet comprehended. Now that would be something to look forward to.

Given the opportunity, I was keen on learning about the representation of millions of blood rule meaning at the bifurcation point. Unfortunately, it seemed unlikely that I could obtain such knowledge with my current level of strength. Perhaps if I were to become as powerful as the devil merchant code, it would be feasible. Alternatively, I could seek the devil merchant codeʼs assistance, but I feared that the information might be worth more than I could imagine.

Activating the isolation array I once again returned to the inter-realm network search in search of other ingredients required for the deep storage space item card I wanted to create.

I couldnʼt help but feel pleased that I was a demon merchant at this moment. Otherwise, I would have had to go back to the warehouse and order items from the adventure guild mall like an average mortal. It saved me a lot of trouble. In addition, I had doubts about finding the necessary ingredients I required for the creation of my deep storage space item card in the Sky Blossom City market. And even if I did manage to find them, I was uncertain whether they could fulfill my bulk order requirements.

[ B-rank, Rare-grade, magnetite core - 100 pcs - 5000 soul jades.

A-rank, Rare-grade, Firmament Stones - 100 pcs - 60,000 soul jades.

C-rank, uncommon-grade, Voidstone - 10 kgs - 56,000 soul jades

B-rank, Rare-grade, Voidsteel - 10 kgs - 178,000 soul jades]

To acquire the additional ingredients necessary for creating my deep storage space item card I ended up spending 299,000 low-tier soul jades, equivalent to about 14.9 kg of phantom sword wood. The only reason the cost was significantly higher than what I anticipated was that while I searched for the ingredients I need for the creation of the card in the inter-realm network, the search results showed the ingredients I was searching for along with the superior alternatives for them.

Knowing that there were better alternatives I could not just settle for subpar ingredients for my card and thus ended up with a hefty bill. However, the end result was worth the extra expense, and I remained satisfied as long as I achieved what I had envisioned. After obtaining the necessary ingredients, I carefully went through the blueprint that I and Hive AI created for the deep storage space item card that I intended to create.

I planned to create a card version of the augmented and virtual sandbox that was used in the simulation software and games back on Earth. A real-life sandbox was the concept I had envisioned for my deep storage space item card. Within the sandbox, I would be like a god with control over everything in it. With the exception of time. Unfortunately, I couldnʼt find the necessary ingredients within my budget to achieve time control, but I was determined to make the best of what I had.

The best part about the sandbox card was that it would allow me to make Hive AI and my three mutant consciousnesses temporary administrators of the sandbox, giving them complete authority over the phantom sword mushroom plantation that I intended to establish within it. With this feature, I wouldnʼt have to allocate any of my precious time to oversee the growth of the phantom sword mushroom, which would be incredibly convenient and time-saving.

The thought of carrying a massive phantom sword mushroom plantation in my grimoire was surreal. This was for the best, it would save me a lot of external troubles that I would be facing if I had chosen to establish this phantom sword mushroom plantation in the sky blossom city or in the southern royal palace, or in Jillʼs lab instead of a deep storage space item. This was why I felt the 509,500 low-tier soul jades worth of phantom sword wood spent on this card was well spent.

The sandbox card I was creating would not only come hand in farming phantom sword mushrooms but also become the base for my moving lab, just like the one Jill had. With this card, camping in the dungeon or disconnecting myself from the rest of the world for research or the creation of cards would become more fun. I was really looking forward to this card imagining its various applications.

Having bought all the required ingredients and decided on the vision for the card now it was time for me to begin the creation of the sandbox card I had envisioned, a world where I had complete control over everything.

As I began the card creation process, I meticulously followed the blueprint, ensuring that every detail was precise. It was a long and tedious process, but I was determined to make it perfect. Seconds turned into minutes, and minutes turned into hours as I worked tirelessly on the card. Each time I encountered a roadblock, I pushed through it, determined to make my vision a reality.
