Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!

[Damned Zong proposed to exchange a technique for seeking benefits and avoiding harms in return for your Body-Snatching Technique.]

[But how could you know any Body-Snatching? Thus, you continued to look at him with an icy face, remaining silent.]

[Damned Zong, having no other choice, had to settle for less and expressed his willingness to trade treasures for the Life Extension Pill in your possession, he even offered to introduce you to a powerful and mysterious organization.]

Su Xing was stunned for a moment when he saw this; he finally understood why Damned Zong was looking for him.

So he wanted to extend his lifespan!?!

“Thinking it over, Damned Zong has lived for over two thousand years, even if he spent more than a thousand years in a suspended state after taking Huang Quan Pills, he must not have many years of life left… So that’s why he thought of buying Lifespan Extension Pills?”

“However, this seems to be a good opportunity to enter the Descending Sect, this way, I won’t need to drag junior sister Wang Qingxuan down with me…”

Su Xing sighed softly; for Wang Qingxuan, joining the Descending Sect might not be a good thing.

If Su Xing could join through other means, that would naturally be better.

With that thought, Su Xing looked at the simulation panel.

[You agreed to Damned Zong’s request, using two Life Extension Pills to trade for many precious Spiritual Medicines from him.]

[Afterward, you joined the ranks of the Descending Sect with Damned Zong.]

[Upon entering the Descending Sect, your formidable strength shocked all the Elders, and with Damned Zong’s recommendation, you quickly gained the trust of the higher-ups of the Descending Sect, rising to the status of an Elder-level figure just after joining.]

[The Descending Sect informed you that if you perform well, you were guaranteed a promotion to Protector level, with even more benefits to come.]

[But you didn’t care about any of these promises; you were only thinking about how to empty the Sect’s treasury of medicines.]

[So you contacted Luo Shuying privately. Luo Shuying was initially hostile towards you because she thought you were part of Damned Zong’s faction.]

[But only after you explained everything to her and spoke the secret code did Luo Shuying believe you.]

[Having gained Luo Shuying’s trust, you repeated your old tricks, having Luo Shuying help you acquire the Spiritual Medicines in the treasury.]

[After successfully obtaining the Spiritual Medicines, you began concocting Elixirs.]

[First, you concocted Soul Condensing Pills and in just half a year, you made thousands of them. After giving a part of these to Luo Shuying, you consumed the rest to find ways to enhance your Divine Sense.]

[During these six months, on the surface, you addressed Damned Zong as a brother, but in fact, you were covertly in contact with Luo Shuying, considering when would be the best time to kill the old dog.]

[In the second year, thanks to the plentiful Soul Condensing Pills, the strength of your Divine Sense skyrocketed to a full two hundred zhang!]

[At the same time, you began to prepare early concoctions of Essence-Nourishing Pills, Origin Martial Pills, and even Divine Strength Pills.]

[In the third year, with Luo Shuying’s help, you almost emptied the treasury of its medicines. You felt the time was ripe and decided it was time to defect from the Descending Sect!]

[So, you picked an auspicious day, and even had dinner with Damned Zong before you left. The next day, you and Luo Shuying defected to the Great Xia Military.]

[The Great Xia Military was initially skeptical of you, given that you previously annihilated the Black Dragon Commerce Guild and then turned to join the enemy, the Descending Sect; it was hard for them to trust you.]

[But when you presented them with one hundred thousand Elixirs, the Great Xia Military completely trusted you, even regarding you as a hero of the Human Race!]

[Soon after, the major powers of Great Xia Country learned of your return, but they did not dare to offend you because you were now part of the high ranks of the Great Xia Military!]

[In Great Xia Country, no matter how powerful a force is, it must submit to Great Xia Country, because the military, with the most formidable fighters, is the uncrowned king!]

[Thus these forces sent gifts to you, offering apologies, but you were hardly interested.]

[At the same time, when the Descending Sect learned of your and Luo Shuying’s defection, they immediately issued a bounty, wanting to mobilize the Sect’s entire force to kill you.]

[And Protector Zong, since he had recommended you, was implicated, lost trust, and was also pursued by the Descending Sect.]

Su Xing laughed when he saw this.

“Well, that’s a surprise, I managed to trick Damned Zong before leaving!”

“Tsk tsk, it looks like in the future Damned Zong could introduce me into the Descending Sect… This deal was worth it!”

Su Xing thought slyly, his gaze returning to the simulation panel.

[Afterward, you focused on concocting Elixirs. In two years, you had made tens of thousands of them, including batches of Origin Martial Pills, and even Divine Strength Pills!]

[You added tens of thousands of Grandmaster Level, hundreds of Heavenly King, and even dozens of Martial Emperor Level powerhouses to Great Xia Country!]

[Suddenly, all forces trembled with fear, worried you might seek revenge, and the Great Xia Military attached great importance to you, took care of your emotions, and nearly fulfilled all your requests.]

[In the fifth year, besides concocting pills, you spent your days cultivating and enhancing your Divine Sense.]

[That year, your Divine Sense expanded to five hundred zhang, already equivalent to the peak range of an ordinary Nascent Soul’s Divine Sense!]

[In the sixth year, you ordered your subordinates to gather precious spiritual medicine from the Great Xia treasury.]

[You used these medicines to refine many elixirs, which enhanced the strength of Great Xia Country. Meanwhile, another stick of Condensing Spirit Wood also came into your possession, and you used it to make many Soul Condensing Pills.]

[In the seventh year, after exhausting most of your medicinal materials, you were finally able to focus on attempting to refine the Infant Tempering Pill!]

[The refining of the Infant Tempering Pill was not difficult; it was even simpler than the Divine Strength Pill among the mid-grade elixirs.]

[The only headache was the limited amount of medicinal materials you had at your disposal: ten Phoenix Tail Grasses and thirty Snow Bone Ginsengs. Even with careful planning, you could at most only refine fifty batches of the Infant Tempering Pill.]

[In other words, you must learn the Infant Tempering Pill within these fifty batches!]

[This undoubtedly placed a great deal of pressure on you, so you began to endlessly simulate the refining process in your mind, ensuring that no mistakes were made, before you finally started the actual refining process.]

[You spent a day refining the first batch of Infant Tempering Pills, and unsurprisingly, you failed.]

[After the failure, instead of immediately trying again, you spent three days contemplating the details of the process.]

[Only after determining that you had gained some insights did you attempt to refine the next batch of Infant Tempering Pills.]

[In one month, you refined seven batches, and unquestionably, all seven failed, amounting to nothing but waste.]

[But you maintained your composure, knowing that mastering mid-grade elixirs would not come easily. Since each attempt was an improvement, you steadied your emotions and continued refining.]

[In the second month, you refined five batches of Infant Tempering Pills, all failures!]

[In the third month, you refined seven batches of Infant Tempering Pills, and as expected, all failed!]

[In the following months, besides cultivating, you fixed a schedule to refine elixirs. Despite never having succeeded, your understanding of the Infant Tempering Pill rapidly improved.]

[Finally, thanks to your innate talent in alchemy, one day you successfully refined three Infant Tempering Pills, and your skills in refining them reached the introductory level!]

Su Xing let out a sigh of relief, knowing that once he reached the introductory level, the rest would be manageable.]

[This means that learning the Infant Tempering Pill wouldn’t be difficult; if not on the first try, then with two or three simulations, you would certainly learn it.]

[Thinking this, Su Xing turned to the simulation panel.]

[Unexpectedly, the next simulations brought Su Xing a pleasant surprise!]

[After entering the introductory stage of refining the Infant Tempering Pill, you still had half of your materials left. Hence, you would refine a batch every now and then, hoping to further improve your proficiency.]

[One day, while refining the Infant Tempering Pill, a sudden epiphany caused time to seemingly slow down, and your mind was flooded with endless inspiration. You triggered a state of enlightenment!]

[Upon realizing this, you became ecstatic and took advantage of the state of enlightenment to crazily improve your proficiency in refining the Infant Tempering Pill.]

[Unfortunately, the enlightenment state did not last long, only a single day.]

[Nevertheless, your proficiency in refining the Infant Tempering Pill progressed rapidly, reaching an accomplished level, and you were even a step away from the Mahayana level!]

[You looked at the several shiny Infant Tempering Pills before you, feeling an urge to take them to condense a perfect Nascent Soul.]

[However, you resisted. Although successful, these pills were of ordinary quality, not the finest. You decided to hold back, waiting to refine the finest Infant Tempering Pill before using it to advance.]

Su Xing was somewhat excited.]

“Well now, triggered a random enlightenment just like that?”

“Damn, that’s some good luck! Only one simulation in and my alchemy skills for the Infant Tempering Pill are nearly at the Mahayana level.”]

Su Xing originally thought that it would take at least two or three simulations to master the Infant Tempering Pill. But judging by the current situation, perhaps in the next simulation, he would be able to refine the finest Infant Tempering Pill and attempt to condense a perfect Nascent Soul!]

“Tsk tsk, it seems like for this simulation, I should focus on alchemy skills. If that’s the case, why not learn a few more low-level elixirs…”]

[With a plan in mind, Su Xing’s gaze returned to the simulation panel.]

[After experiencing the epiphany with the Infant Tempering Pill, you knew that refining elixirs was your main task going forward.]

[So you dedicated every day to enhancing your alchemy skills.]

[In the same year, your Divine Sense expanded to a range of six hundred zhang!]

[In the eighth year, you improved your refining skills for the Illuminating Mirror Pill substantially, advancing to the Mahayana level.]

[That year, your Body Refinement Cultivation Level broke through, and you became a dual-layer Divine Strength Realm cultivator.]

[In the ninth year, Jin Congxue helped you gather numerous millenary medicinal herbs, so you decided to work on improving your Life Extension Pill techniques.]

[You took a year to advance your Life Extension Pill techniques to the Mahayana level, capable of refining the finest-quality Life Extension Pills.]

[The effect of the finest-quality Life Extension Pill was double that of normal ones, able to extend life by six years, its efficacy almost reaching that of the Lifespan Extension Pill!]

[In the tenth year, your Divine Sense strength further increased, with a range reaching eight hundred zhang!]
