Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!

Chapter 296: Chapter 182: The Exotic Metal Ore Worth Three Billion Energy! (5k)

[In the core area, a large amount of dense Spiritual Energy rushed towards his face, and countless Spiritual Medicines grew within the Spirit Fields.]

[However, with your current level of alchemy, you were still unable to refine these medicines.]

[So, you bypassed those Spirit Fields and removed all the Spirit Stones from the Spirit Gathering Array.]

[You didn't disturb True Person Wan Mu in the bronze sarcophagus; before leaving, you looked back longingly at the Spirit Vein Dragon.]

[After leaving the ancient tomb, you took out Damned Zong's diary and found the location of Five Elements Mountain.]

[Before the Formation of the Five Elements Mountain ruins, your brow felt a slight pain.]

[This indicated that if you were to step into the ruins of Five Elements Mountain, you would be in mortal danger.]

[Out of caution, you decided to temporarily put aside the exploration of the Five Elements Mountain ruins and continued to collect more Spring Dew Pure Water.]

[In the twentieth year, you returned to the real world and continued to amass Spring Dew Pure Water.]

[That year, you accumulated a total of one hundred ninety drops of Spring Dew Pure Water.]

[Afterward, you collected Spring Dew Pure Water yearly on the day of Awakening Insects, while also practicing diligently.]

[In a blink of an eye, another four years passed.]

[In the twenty-fourth year, after the day of Awakening Insects, you had gathered two hundred thirty drops of Spring Dew Pure Water.]

[Although you had enhanced the practice of the Li Fire Technique, you found that there was still quite a distance to achieve its Great Perfection.]

[The biggest issue was that your current Spiritual Power was insufficient to let the Li Fire Technique burst forth with the utmost high temperature.]

[Perhaps after reaching the Return to Void Realm and having a surge in Cultivation Level, you could better activate the Li Fire Technique.]

[In the twenty-fifth year, hundreds of Legendary Demon Beasts broke through Demon-Subduing Pass, and many Human Race warriors died in battle.]

[A small number of Human Race warriors fled back to the real world, preparing for their last stand.]

[And you, after collecting that year's Spring Dew Pure Water, decided to explore the Immortal Martial Era Instance once again.]

[You arrived at Five Elements Mountain, shattered the Formation of the ruins, and entered the ancient tomb.]

[Based on the information you had, the cultivator sleeping in this tomb was a powerful member of the Five Elements Sect from thousands of years ago.]

Su Xing felt a slight anticipation upon reading this.

"Within the Wan Mu Sect ruins lies True Person Wan Mu..."

"Could there also be a cultivator of the Body Integration Realm sleeping within the Five Elements Sect ruins?"

Thinking this, a faint nervousness and excitement stirred in Su Xing's heart.

After all, within the Wan Mu Sect ruins, there were plenty of treasures: Spiritual Medicines, Spirit Stones... even a fully formed Spirit Vein Dragon!

If the Five Elements Sect ruins also contained these things, then Su Xing would make a fortune!

"Tsk tsk, once I reach the Integration Phase, I'll definitely open up your ancient coffins!"

Initially, Su Xing had some good impressions of these powerful cultivators, but after knowing about True Person Wan Mu's actions, he immediately lost all favorable feelings.

With these thoughts in mind, Su Xing's gaze shifted to the simulation panel.

[The Formation of the Five Elements Sect was more robust than you imagined, but you still managed to break it and entered the interior of the ancient tomb.]

[Passing through the narrow tomb passage, the path ahead gradually widened, and you immediately became vigilant, activating your Origin Force armor and Protective Gang Qi.]

[After walking a few more miles, suddenly a dark shadow flashed before your eyes.]

[An astonishing force hit your Protective Gang Qi, shattering it instantly.]

[Even with the buffer of Protective Gang Qi, you were still struck against the ancient tomb's stone wall, your chest aching with pain.]

[You were greatly shocked, but at the same time, you saw the appearance of the person before you.]

[It was a Living Dead Puppet!]

[However, this Living Dead Puppet was much stronger than those in the Wan Mu ruins.]

[In life, this entity was at least in the late stages of the Broken Void Realm, even close to the Great Perfection!]

[You observed this Living Dead Puppet carefully and noticed that its hair and beard were all white, its eyebrows also white, resembling the White-Eyebrow Priest from a certain movie.]

[But its current state was extremely pitiful: disheveled white hair, a pale face, and a body bearing endless resentment!]

[Seeing the Living Dead Puppet about to attack again, you instinctively raised your Protective Gang Qi once more and dashed towards the core area of the ruins.]

[Fortunately, your escaping speed had increased significantly, and since the Living Dead Puppet seemed to have a disability in its legs, it couldn't catch up immediately.]

[With full speed, you desperately ran forward, reaching the core area of the Five Elements Mountain ancient tomb in just a few breaths.]

[Strangely, the core area of this ancient tomb seemed to have no Formation...]

[No, it seemed there once had been a Formation, but it had been violently destroyed!]

[While fleeing for your life, you were filled with doubt: Did Damned Zong once come here?]

[But you quickly denied that thought. According to Damned Zong's diary, he never dared set foot in this part of the Five Elements Sect ruins.]

[Quickly stepping into the core area, you took notice of a huge bronze sarcophagus.]

[Similar in appearance to the one in the Wan Mu ruins, but instead of a vast forest, this sarcophagus bore images of the Five Elements...]

[What puzzled you even more was that the bronze sarcophagus was already open, and the cultivator who should have been sleeping inside was nowhere to be found.]

[An idea immediately surfaced in your mind: the Living Dead Puppet chasing you was the cultivator who should have been resting inside the sarcophagus!]

[For some unknown reason, the cultivator who should have been in slumber had awakened prematurely and turned into this form of a Living Dead Puppet.]

[But you didn't have time to contemplate the reasons as the Living Dead Puppet was still hot on your heels.]
