Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!

Su Xing paused when he saw that, then nodded his head.

"Right! The potency of the herbs is related to their age... such a simple problem, how did I only think of this now?"

Su Xing felt a bit embarrassed.

But in fact, he couldn't really blame himself. After all, Su Xing didn't have a master to guide him in the study of alchemy, everything had to be explored by himself.

The fact that he could refine some low-quality elixirs was already due to decades of relentless effort, let alone refining higher-quality elixirs, which would be even more difficult.

Realizing this, Su Xing felt more confident about refining the Organ Refining Pill and continued his simulation.

[You wanted to continue refining the Organ Refining Pill, but at the moment you had no main ingredient, Huang Xian Essence. So, you took some seeds from the medicinal herbs Qing Yunzi left you and planted them in the Spirit Field.]

[You had exhausted all your previous savings, so you refined a batch of low-grade Nourishing Face Pills and sold them to Jin Congxue.]

[In the fifth year, the Huang Xian Essence you planted had a one-year potency. You thought the three-year potency Huang Xian Essence's medicinal power was too strong, so you took it out and prepared to start refining.]

[In the sixth year, you spent a year refining hundreds of furnaces of Organ Refining Pills. During the refining process, you continuously improved the refining procedure and you thought the Organ Refining Pil you refined was qualified.]

[One day, you tried swallowing one Organ Refining Pill.]

[The strong medicinal potency of the Organ Refining Pill instantly made you feel like you were being burned by fierce fire. You clenched your teeth and persevered.]

[You didn't immediately die from body explosion, but blood continuously flowed from your meridians. Your whole body became like a blood man. You tried taking several Wound Healing Pills to treat your injuries.]

[The low-quality Wound Healing Pills didn't work on such severe injuries. You watched yourself bleed to death helplessly.]

[You died!]──

[Your innate talent, "Die with Eyes Open," activated!]──

[You looked dazedly at the furnace of Organ Refining Pills before you...]──

[Ding, this simulation ends!]──

Su Xing was speechless.

"Damn it, I died in the sixth year? This must be the earliest death I've ever had in a simulation!"

Su Xing immediately felt a pang of heartache. He knew that each simulation required a week of waiting time, making them very precious.

In this simulation, he had been quite cautious, refining the Organ Refining Pill hundreds of times before reluctantly trying to swallow one.

But to his surprise, despite reducing the pill's potency, he still couldn't withstand it.

"Phew… but I didn't die from an immediate body explosion, just from meridian breakdown... this means my direction is correct! It's just because the Organ Refining Pill's potency is too strong to handle!"

Su Xing took the lesson and didn't get discouraged by this failure. After all, his cultivation had stagnated at Body Refining level five for three years. Now, wanting to break through to the Organ Refining Realm, even if challenging, he had to give it a try.

"Well, it's just another week... it's not a big deal!"

Su Xing comforted himself like this, then looked at the rewards for this simulation.

[A Sudden Inspiration]: Green talent, priced at 10,000 points of energy.

[Perfect Bone Refining]: Cultivation level, priced at 11,000 points of energy.

[Entry-level Li Fire Alchemy]: Entry-level alchemy experience, including refinement insights for Power Pill (Mahayana level), Wound Healing Pill (Mahayana level), Qi Gathering Powder (Mahayana level), Breath Constraining Pill (Mahayana level), Swift Pill (Mahayana level), Organ Refining Pill (Minor Achievement level), priced at 100,000 points of energy.

"The talent for Sudden Inspiration is definitely a must-choose... just like the previous talent for Tenacity, it's very useful in simulations!"

Su Xing first spent 10,000 points of energy to exchange for the talent, then he turned his gaze toward the other two options.

"Hmm, the Li Fire Alchemy has reached entry-level? And it only costs 100,000 points of energy?"

Su Xing was surprised. He knew that previously, even the basic level of Li Fire Alchemy cost 130,000 points of energy.

But soon, Su Xing realized that his previous Li Fire Alchemy skill might have been close to entry-level already.

After all, he had previously mastered the refinement of three kinds of low-quality elixirs and an entry-level low-grade alchemy technique. Additionally, he had memorized the refinement methods and procedures for 360 types of elixirs.

In this simulation, he had also mastered some new methods for refining low-quality elixirs, building upon his previous foundation.

"In that case... an average low-quality elixir's refinement experience would cost around 10,000 points of energy. Higher-quality pills like the Organ Refining Pill might cost much more, needing tens of thousands of points even for Minor Achievement level."

Su Xing thought, stroking his chin.

But the entry-level alchemy technique was also a must-choose.

After all, it would save Su Xing many points of energy in future simulations.

"Too bad, I'll have to choose the Perfect Bone Refining cultivation next time."

Su Xing gently shook his head; his current situation was relatively safe, so there wasn't an urgent need to boost his Body Refinement cultivation level.

In contrast, what Su Xing urgently needed to enhance was his Qi Refining cultivation.

Because the stronger his Qi Refining cultivation, the more Spiritual Energy inside him, allowing him to better learn alchemy techniques.

"It seems, in the next simulation, I should find ways to increase my Qi Refining cultivation."

Thinking this, Su Xing silently recited:

"I choose to bring back the entry-level Li Fire Alchemy!"

[Ding, you chose to bring out the green talent "A Sudden Inspiration," costing 10,000 points of energy, remaining energy: 133,000 points.]

[Ding, you chose to bring out the entry-level Li Fire Alchemy experience, costing 100,000 points of energy, remaining energy: 33,000 points.]

The talent for Sudden Inspiration brought quite a change to Su Xing. He felt his thinking becoming more active, occasionally sparking new ideas in his mind.

The enhancement in alchemy skills was even more significant for Su Xing. He felt new alchemy knowledge appearing in his mind and the elixirs seemed as if he had refined them countless times, becoming second nature to him.

"Tsk tsk, no wonder it's an entry-level alchemy technique... I feel my insight into Alchemy Dao has increased a lot."

After the simulation ended, Su Xing began to prepare refining low-grade Nourishing Face Pills.

After all, with every simulation he did, he would need more and more energy. This meant Su Xing would have to spend more money.

Currently, Su Xing's primary source of income was selling low-grade Nourishing Face Pills.

The efficiency of making money through refining elixirs was at least ten times faster than his previous method of farming equipment!

So, in the following week, Su Xing refined ten furnaces of Nourishing Face Pills.

Due to Su Xing's advanced alchemy skills, the efficiency and success rate of refining the Nourishing Face Pills were much higher than before.

In just three days, he produced ninety finished Nourishing Face Pills, even including seven or eight premium-grade ones.

Aside from refining elixirs, Su Xing didn't continue taking the freshmen underclassmen on dungeon raids for leveling up every day.

He would occasionally take Wang Qingxuan on dungeon raids for gear farming and leveling up.

After all, Wang Qingxuan was related to the Descending Sect clues, so it was important to maintain a good relationship.

A week quickly passed, and Jin Congxue came to his door that day.

"Su Xing, you sure have made a fortune! Guess how much your batch of elixirs sold for?"

Jin Congxue wore a cheongsam today, accentuating her curvaceous figure and exuding extreme allure.

Su Xing blinked and said:

"I guess, one billion!"

Jin Congxue widened her eyes at Su Xing's words and said:

"You little true god! How did you know it sold for one billion? Here... this is the remaining eight hundred million balance, but I know you want to buy white-quality equipment, so I've already exchanged it all for gear!"

With that, Jin Congxue handed him a storage ring.

Su Xing's eyes lit up when he heard this, taking the ring.

Jin Congxue exchanging the money for equipment in advance saved Su Xing a lot of effort.

"Thanks! From now on, for every transaction, you can use white-quality gear for exchange... it'll save me a lot of trouble!"

"By the way, these are the Happy Rich Lady Pills I refined this week, ninety pills in total. Please help me sell them this week!"

Su Xing took out a bottle of elixirs from his pocket and handed it over.

Jin Congxue blinked as she received the bottle of elixirs, saying:

"Goodness, you can refine so many in just one week. That's over a billion in earnings each week! Since you're so rich, why don't you take care of me?"

Jin Congxue said, showing a playful expression.
