Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!

"Indeed... Could that old dragon mentioned in Protector Zong\'s diary be Dragon Protector?"

"Could Dragon Protector possibly be from the dragon race? Much stronger than my own strength... Could it be that he\'s at the Great Perfection of the Return to Void Realm, or even a Cultivator at the Body Integration Realm?"

Su Xing suddenly felt a bit of unease.

If he wanted to loot the treasure vault of the Descending Sect in the future, he would inevitably have to confront Dragon Protector.

The stronger Dragon Protector\'s strength, the more disadvantageous it would be for Su Xing...

"It seems... I must at least reach the Great Perfection of the Broken Void Realm before I can be confident in looting the Descending Sect\'s treasure vault..."

Su Xing\'s brows furrowed slightly as he thought of a talent he once had called "Dragon Slayer."

Seemed to have a natural suppression and intimidation against the dragon race?

"Dragon Slayer... Perhaps, when the time is right, this talent should also come into play..."

Su Xing murmured.

"Has Dragon Protector found out it was me who killed Damned Zong?"

"He shouldn\'t have... Otherwise, Dragon Protector would have taken me down on the spot. It must have been the Heavenly Secrets Shielding Technique that helped me evade Dragon Protector\'s search!"

"And the reason he paid attention to me could be because we are both Cultivators? Or is it... He sensed my extraordinary strength?"

Su Xing had some guesses in his heart, but for the moment Dragon Protector didn\'t set his sights on Su Xing, and Su Xing was naturally happy to continue his development and strengthen himself.

With this thought in mind, Su Xing\'s gaze turned to the simulation panel.

[In the following months, nothing happened, and you continued to stay within the Descending Sect at ease refining Elixirs and practicing your Sword Control Technique.]

[The second year, on the day of Jingzhe.]

[You arrived at a great mountain, and your Divine Sense spread out like a tide, instantly enveloping the entire sprawling mountain.]

[Within this sprawling mountain, every bird chirp, every breeze, was sensed by your Divine Sense.]

[The moment the spring thunder fell, you made your move, stepping on your flying sword with an elegant air, leaving afterimages in the sky.]

[In that half-second, you sensed the trajectory of each drop of rain as it fell.]

[Half a second later, you stopped.]

[Opening your palm, within the embrace of Spiritual Energy, was a strand of Spring Dew Pure Water.]

[Exactly ten drops, not one more or less...]

[You left contentedly and returned to the Descending Sect to continue refining Elixirs.]

[The third year, on the day of Jingzhe, you took the time to visit the great mountain again, and your Spring Dew Pure Water accumulated to twenty drops.]

[That same year, you embezzled all the medicinal materials in the Descending Sect and refined more than a hundred thousand Elixirs.]

[You planned to defect from the Descending Sect.]

[One night, you woke Luo Shuying, taking her with you to flee to Kyoto.]

[She didn\'t ask questions, just silently followed you, trusting you unconditionally.]

[You gifted her the Soul Condensing Pills you had refined over the years, helping her to successfully break through to Legendary Level strength.]

[Afterward, you encountered the Descending Sect\'s pursuit, but with your exceptional strength, you even managed to counter-kill several Martial Emperor peak level protectors on the way.]

[After arriving in Kyoto, you continued your daily routine of refining Elixirs to provide for the Great Xia Country.]

[The fourth year, on the day of Jingzhe, you once again collected Spring Dew Pure Water, with the quantity reaching thirty drops.]

[The same year, you gave all the Elixirs you had refined over the years to the Great Xia Military, adding many powerful individuals to Great Xia Country.]

[After you no longer needed to refine Elixirs, you found the time to sort through the legacy of Damned Zong, obtaining 80,000 Spirit Stones besides some treasures.]

[You didn\'t use these Spirit Stones but carefully preserved them instead.]

[The fifth year, on the day of Jingzhe, your Spring Dew Pure Water stock reached forty drops.]

[The same year, you went to the Demon-Subduing Pass to fend off enemies, looking for the path beyond the Broken Void Realm.]

[There were many Demon King, Demon Emperor-level Demonic Beasts in the Demon-Subduing Pass, but Legendary Demon Beasts were hard to come by.]

[With your current strength, not to mention the Flesh Essence of a Demon King, even that of a Demon Emperor was minimally effective.]

[So you stayed in the Demon-Subduing Pass, fighting enemies daily.]

[Whenever the day of Jingzhe came, you would go to the real world to collect Spring Dew Pure Water.]

[Thus, three years slowly passed.]

[By the eighth year, you had accumulated seventy drops of Spring Dew Pure Water, enough to refine seventy batches of Void Refinement Pills.]

[But as one of the middle-ranked Elixirs with the highest difficulty in refinement, you still didn\'t have the confidence to succeed in refining Void Refinement Pills...]

[So you planned to continue collecting Spring Dew Pure Water to bring out as a simulation reward.]

[One day, while you were fighting in the Demon-Subduing Pass, you encountered an unexpectedly formidable Demonic Beast.]

[This Demonic Beast was less than a hundred zhang tall but possessed strength comparable to Legendary Level.]

[With such a size, it barely compared to a dwarf among Legendary Demon Beasts.]

[Yet, this Demonic Beast was extremely strong and fast, hardly weaker than you.]

[But compared to those thousand-zhang-sized Legendary Demon Beasts, its defense was far from theirs.]

[You battled the Legendary Demon Beast for hundreds of rounds, using your extreme endurance, strength, and Protective Gang Qi, finally slaying it.]

[Afterward, you obtained three hundred jin of precious Legendary Demon Beast Flesh Essence!]

Su Xing raised an eyebrow upon seeing this, his thoughts stirring.

"So... not all Legendary Demon Beasts are those massive creatures, thousands of zhang tall..."

"There are also those with smaller sizes, like the less than ten meters tall Shadow Tribe Demonic Beast I encountered before... or this hundred zhang tall Legendary Demon Beast..."

Thinking this, Su Xing heaved a sigh of relief and said:

"Compared to those massive Legendary Demon Beasts... these Legendary Demon Beasts, although also challenging, simply do not have such perverse defenses, so they aren\'t my match."
