Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!

Chapter 131 - 115: Sudden Enlightenment Triggered, Divine Strength Pill Finally Achieved!_2

Chapter 131: Chapter 115: Sudden Enlightenment Triggered, Divine Strength Pill Finally Achieved!_2

[On the nineteenth year, the dozens of spirit earthworms that you had nurtured over more than a decade, bathing daily in spiritual energy, had grown increasingly stout and had developed sentience.]

[One of the spirit earthworms had become as thick as an arm, and as they cultivated the spirit field every day, the growth of the spirit plants within your field became even more gratifying.]

[In the same year, the Three-tailed Phoenix Grass you planted had grown its second phoenix tail, getting closer to maturity.]

[On the twentieth year, you persisted in tempering your body, and finally, your physical strength reached 6.8 million catties.]

[But you can now only increase by twenty or thirty thousand catties each year, and you estimate that the limit of your body’s potential is probably around 7 million catties…]

Su Xing felt somewhat disappointed upon seeing this.

“The limit is only 7 million catties of strength… That’s still a considerable gap from the rumored Witch Clan…”

Su Xing shook his head slightly, for it was rumored that the geniuses of the Witch Clan could reach 8 million catties.

Despite possessing the Innate Divine Strength Talent, it seemed his potential was still inferior to that of a Witch Clan genius; he probably had the Body Refinement talent equivalent only to a slightly more powerful descendant of the Witch Clan.

[In the twenty-first year, you continued to study the knowledge of spirit plants in the Shennong Spiritual Nurturing Technique; you began to understand the medicinal properties of each spiritual medicine, the conflicts between ingredients, as well as how to cultivate spiritual medicines.]

[On the twenty-second year, you finally mastered the basics of the small Spirit Gathering Array; you could ensure a success rate of over fifty percent when forming the array, and could manipulate the surrounding spiritual energy to control the strength of the small Spirit Gathering Array.]

[In the same year, the strife between the Human Race and the Foreign Race at Demon-Subduing Pass intensified; nearly every month, powerhouses of the Heavenly King and Martial Emperor levels were severely injured.]

[You hastily concocted a batch of Bone-Healing Elixirs, significantly reducing the death rate of frontline Heavenly King level powerhouses.]

[In the twenty-third year, Demon-Subduing Pass was still standing firm, and the Human Race continued to hold on.]

[In the twenty-fourth year, you were subject to an assassination attempt by the Descending Sect; they had learned that the elixirs were concocted by you and even discovered your hiding place, willing to infiltrate Kyoto to eliminate you, the thorn in their side.]

[Fortunately, Luo Shuying protected you; for your own safety, you decided to stay within the confines of the Spirit Field Blessed Land, minimizing the number of times you left.]

[In the twenty-fifth year, although the casualties of the Human Race at Demon-Subduing Pass continued to mount, fresh blood was infused annually, and it remained steadfast.]

[In the twenty-sixth year, an endless horde of Demonic Beasts crazily breached Demon-Subduing Pass, and the pass was broken.]

[In the same year, a colossal beast descended upon the real world and swallowed the entire Great Xia Country in one gulp.]

[You died!]

[Your Purple Talent activates in deathly resistance…]

[Ding, this simulation has ended!]

After the simulation ended, Su Xing stood rooted to the spot.

“Damn it, Demon-Subduing Pass seemed to be in a favorable situation… and yet it was breached the following year… What exactly happened?”

Su Xing frowned slightly, utterly puzzled.

“It seems that the power at the Martial Emperor level is still not enough to sustain Demon-Subduing Pass for long… Did it really only last one more year? This indicates that the Foreign Race had not been exerting their full strength before… Otherwise, Demon-Subduing Pass would have been breached even earlier!”

Su Xing sighed, having only prolonged the inevitable by one year, less than he had anticipated.

“Well, let’s just see the simulation rewards! The rewards this time are too generous!”

Su Xing turned his gaze to the simulation reward selection panel.

[The Brightest Among the Crowd]: Purple Talent, priced at 1 million energy points.

[Twenty-six Years of Alchemy Experience]: Alchemy insights, slight increase learned in elixir experience, newly learned to minor perfection the Mirror Clarity Pill, major perfection the Divine Strength Pill, and minor perfection the Bone-Healing Pill, priced at 3 million energy points.

[Shennong Spiritual Nurturing Technique (Entry level)]: Includes entry-level experience in small Spirit Gathering Array, Earth Dragon Technique, and minor perfection in Dew Technique, priced at 3 million energy points.

[Three-tailed Phoenix Grass (Ten stalks)]: Three-tailed Phoenix Grass from 280 years, close to maturity, priced at 10 million energy points.

Looking at the rewards on the panel, Su Xing did not hesitate much.

“Sigh, I also want to be the brightest among the crowd! But this alchemy experience and the Shennong Spiritual Nurturing Technique are too tempting!”

Su Xing sighed, but his lips curled upward uncontrollably.

“I choose the alchemy experience, and the Shennong Spiritual Nurturing Technique!”

[You have successfully brought out twenty-six years of alchemy experience, spending 3 million energy points, leaving you with 21,463,003 energy points remaining.]

[You have successfully brought out the Shennong Spiritual Nurturing Technique (Entry level), spending 3 million energy points, leaving you with 18,463,003 energy points remaining.]

The notifier of the simulator sounded in Su Xing’s ears, and shortly afterward, a wealth of memories suddenly flooded his mind.

All these memories were about the knowledge contained within the Shennong Spiritual Nurturing Technique, including the minor Spirit Gathering Array, Earth Dragon Technique, Dew Spirit Technique, and some knowledge on planting methods for spirit plants.

Then followed the influx of alchemy experience, Su Xing succeeded in mastering the production of Divine Strength Pills, feeling that he would definitely handle making them effortlessly. In addition to that, Su Xing also learned to produce Clear Mirror Pills and Bone Growth Pills.

One could say that as long as there were ingredients, Su Xing could easily concoct a batch of Bone Growth Pills.

After a long while, Su Xing opened his eyes, his face slightly shocked:

“Hiss~ This Shennong Spiritual Nurturing Technique is actually so powerful…”

Su Xing twitched the corner of his mouth, already somewhat regretting not having chosen the Shennong Spiritual Nurturing Technique earlier. After all, each of the three spells it contains is incredibly powerful and endlessly mysterious.

“Dew Spirit Technique requires either Wood Type or Water Type spiritual roots to learn… Fortunately, with my Wood Type spiritual root, I can cast it!”

“Just consuming the Dew Spirit is equivalent to a high-class healing medicine, not to mention it’s an important ingredient for many advanced healing drugs! Learning it is truly a blood profit…”

Su Xing then let out another sigh, saying:

“It’s just a pity that the Earth Dragon Technique is divided into two chapters. The spell that controls the shape and structure of the land requires an Earth Spirit Root to cast…”

“Sigh, but learning the method to command the Earth Dragon is decent enough…”

Su Xing opened his attribute panel.

Through these simulations, Su Xing had made considerable improvements in his strength.

Not only had he learned quite a few new skills, but his power had also reached the peak of his current realm.

“Well, the next step is to figure out how to break through to the Divine Strength Realm…”

Just thinking about the significant increase in strength that a realm breakthrough would bring filled Su Xing with motivation.

Consequently, Su Xing started to hustle with alchemy.

Soon, a week passed by.

Su Xing had burned through six thousand elixirs and then went to see Jin Congxue.

After a simple meal and discussing serious matters (and ribbing each other), Su Xing returned to the Spirit Field Blessed Land.

He converted that week’s goods into simulation energy, adding over ten million in energy.

On April 29, 2024, New Epoch, on the day of Su Xing’s birthday, he did not slack off and began a new theoretical simulation punctually.

“Sigh, there are only a little over twenty years left until the end of the world. Only the strong deserve to celebrate birthdays!”

“Begin simulation!”

Su Xing muttered to himself.

[Ding! This simulation will consume 3400 points of energy, leaving a balance of 28,534,396 points. Remaining number of simulations: unlimited.]

[Simulation begins!]

[Drawing a green talent costs 1000 points of energy, a blue talent costs 10,000 points of energy, and drawing a purple talent costs 100,000 points of energy. Would you like to draw one?]

Su Xing rubbed his hands together excitedly, mentally telling himself to be blessed by luck, and then muttered:

“Draw a purple talent!”

Immediately after, a notification sound from the simulator rang in Su Xing’s ear.

[Congratulations, you have obtained a purple talent: Herculean Strength!]
