Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!

[The damned Zong was slippery, providing half-truths and lies.]

[Knowing that you couldn’t get any useful information from him, you directly killed him and then checked what was left in his broken storage magical artifact.]

[Unfortunately, the storage magical artifact was destroyed, and most of the magical treasures and cultivation techniques were ruined.]

[Luckily, the jade slip recording the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique was only partially broken, and you successfully found the second part of the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique, which calculates luck and misfortune!]

Su Xing read this and then diverted his gaze from the simulation panel, sighing:

“That damned Zong was truly troublesome!”

“Even though his strength was inferior to mine, he was still so adept at preserving his life. I had to chase him for an entire month before I finally killed him…”

“Such life-preserving techniques, no wonder he’s been hunted for over a thousand years and still managed to become a Divinity Transformation Stage cultivator!”

At the same time, Su Xing felt regretful about the storage magical artifact being destroyed by the damned Zong again.

The damned Zong, knowing he was about to die, naturally didn’t want to tell Su Xing any useful information about the Cultivation World, nor did he want to leave even a single magical treasure to Su Xing.

Thinking about the magical treasures and divine skills the damned Zong used and destroyed, Su Xing felt his heart bleed!

After a moment of contemplation, Su Xing murmured:

“With my current strength, although I could kill the damned Zong, I couldn’t do it instantly!”

“Because of this, the damned Zong had time to escape… and even destroy magical treasures before dying!”

“If I want to fully obtain the treasures in the damned Zong’s storage magical artifact… I must be able to kill him in one strike, giving him no chance to react!”

Su Xing sighed and shook his head slightly.

How could it be easy to instantly kill a Divinity Transformation Stage cultivator with such numerous life-preserving methods?

Even if Su Xing’s Qi Refining Cultivation reached Divinity Transformation Perfection, he probably still couldn’t do it…

“Maybe, after breaking through to the Broken Void Realm, coupled with the Earth Sword… I could catch him off guard and kill him instantly?”

Su Xing pondered.

Originally, he wanted to kill and plunder from the damned Zong, but found that the guy was too cunning and didn’t leave anything good for him.

Thus, in the short term, before his strength improved, killing the damned Zong might not yield any benefits.

Thinking this, Su Xing murmured to himself:

“However… although the storage magical artifact exploded, it left behind the second part of the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique. Perhaps I should study it?”

Su Xing’s heart stirred.

He had long coveted the damned Zong’s technique for divining personal luck and misfortune.

Last time, the second part was destroyed by the damned Zong. This time, he couldn’t miss this good opportunity.

“The Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique… if combined with my talent for avoiding misfortune and seeking fortune, wouldn’t that make me invincible?”

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

[You collected the damned Zong’s broken magical treasures, then took out the half-broken jade slip recording the technique, and entered the Spirit Field Blessed Land to heal your wounds.]

[For the next month, you used the Great Wisdom in Foolishness talent, remaining in a state of ignorance while healing your wounds.]

[After a month, your injuries were mostly healed, so you took out the jade slip and prepared to study the second part of the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique!]

Su Xing’s heart stirred as he saw this, and he silently chanted:

“Use the immersive simulation function, duration: 72 hours!”

[Ding, you have successfully used the immersive simulation function, duration: 72 hours, costing 7.2 million points, remaining energy: 485.43 million points.]

As the simulator’s notification sound ended, Su Xing’s vision shifted.

Soon, Su Xing found an additional somewhat broken jade slip in his hand.

He immersed his divine sense into the jade slip, seeing lines of text.

“The fortune of a nation cannot be calculated by immortals, so the old Taoist recorded his life’s essence in the second part, the chapter on human fortune!”

“Fortune, timing, destiny… A person without fortune will struggle for decades, but with fortune, they will rise to great heights… Cultivators contend with heaven and earth for longevity, burdened with karma…”

“Even those of great abilities, with lifespans equal to heaven, must still face three disasters and six ailments, the Five Decays of Heaven and Man…”

“However, those who achieve a minor accomplishment in my fortune-telling technique can discern a person’s fortune, avoid misfortunes, and gain insights into heaven and earth…”

“…”

The text in the jade slip was just the second part of the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique and contained a sprawling thirty thousand words.

Moreover, the text was extremely convoluted and hard to memorize.

Knowing time was limited, Su Xing quickly used the Great Wisdom state enhancement and began memorizing it by rote.

One day passed quickly, and Su Xing had memorized the entire chapter on human fortune without missing a single word.

Seeing there were still two days of immersive simulation time left, Su Xing didn’t waste it. He used the comprehension boost from the Great Wisdom state to begin understanding the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique.

In a flash, two days passed, and the immersive simulation time ended. Su Xing returned to the real world.

Back in the real world, Su Xing felt the unique insights from the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique in his mind, full of astonishment.

“It’s unbelievable. What kind of dumb luck did that damned Zong have to obtain such a valuable jade slip?”

“This Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique isn’t an ordinary technique… It’s probably close to the level of Dao Arts!”

Su Xing marveled inwardly. In the Luo Tian Meeting Instance, he had heard about this Dao Arts while talking with Uncle Shennong.

As a cultivator, there were various levels of methods at one’s disposal.

The techniques of ordinary Qi Refinement practitioners fell into three categories: divine skills, arts and techniques, and secret techniques!

Compared to the others, divine skills were more precious and were divided into major and minor divine skills.

Minor divine skills were relatively more common, but not something ordinary cultivators could easily learn.
