Su Xing nodded slightly, his Body Refinement Cultivation Level had already reached the ninth layer of Organ Refining Realm, and the breakthrough to the Origin Martial Realm would surely not be easy.
Therefore, for long-term considerations, Su Xing still had to focus his attention on the Changchun Technique.
Even if Protector Zong was as fierce as a jackal or a tiger, Su Xing would inevitably rise to the challenge and obtain the latter part of the Changchun Technique.
[You and Wang Qingxuan have joined the Descending Sect, and acquired the status of ordinary sect members.]
[The second year, for the past half-year you have kept a low profile, diligently completing your tasks, appearing to be a conscientious member of the sect.]
[One day, when you feel the time is right, you surreptitiously display your alchemy skills.]
[Your displayed alchemy skills quickly catch the attention of the Shadow Protector, who summons you. After examining your alchemy skills, he wants to take you into his confidence.]
[You know the Shadow Protector does not have the Changchun Technique, so you intentionally keep your distance from him, maintaining an ambiguous attitude.]
[The elders of the other two factions within the Descending Sect soon notice this, and they seem to guess that you do not wish to join the Nature Faction. Thus, they send elders from their two factions to make contact with you.]
[You feign indecision, but in fact, you have already found out which elder belongs to the Zealous Faction. You deliberately hesitate for half a month and ultimately accept the olive branch extended by the Zealous Faction.]
[Upon learning of your joining the Zealous Faction, the Shadow Protector’s mood sours, and his attitude towards you becomes much colder.]
Su Xing sees this and sighs softly, muttering,
“Alas, little Ying, although you treat me well… this time around, in the simulation, I have important business! After I achieve my goal, I’ll choose to join your Nature Faction next time!”
[You have joined the Zealous Faction and, as you wished, met with Protector Zong.]
[Protector Zong is a fierce-looking old man, with a somewhat sharp and acerbic demeanor, and a rather gloomy look in his eyes.]
[His attitude towards you is neither warm nor cold, but whenever his eyes settle on you, you always feel a chill to the bone.]
[Protector Zong promises that as long as you complete the tasks he lays out, he will give you the position of an elder within a year.]
[You agree to Protector Zong’s promise, as your main purpose is still to obtain the Changchun Technique, but you know that you must first gain Protector Zong’s trust.]
[You begin trying to refine elixirs, but since the Spiritual Medicine is almost entirely managed by the Nature Faction, and you did not join them, the quantity of Spiritual Medicine you can obtain each month is limited. Furthermore, since the Shadow Protector has a poor impression of you, you can only obtain fifty strands of Yellow Immortal Essence each month.]
[Protector Zong’s task for you is to refine two hundred Organ Refining Pills for him each month, you grit your teeth and agree to begin the refining process.]
Su Xing sees this and black lines form on his forehead.
In previous simulations, he used to get a hundred strands of Yellow Immortal Essence a month, and he only had to refine a hundred Organ Refining Pills.
Now, the amount of work has doubled, and the amount of Yellow Immortal Essence he can embezzle has been halved.
“Damn it, after getting the Changchun Technique, I’m definitely going back into the arms of the Shadow Protector!”
Su Xing sighs, indeed Protector Zong is no benevolent person!
[The third year, during this year, you provide over two thousand Organ Refining Pills for Protector Zong. He uses this large batch of pills to greatly enhance the strength of his subordinates. Protector Zong’s status in the Descending Sect becomes increasingly higher, and the power of the Zealous Faction grows stronger.]
[Protector Zong fulfilled his promise; he promoted you to the rank of elder, and your code name is “Elder of Elixirs.”]
[You tried multiple times to gain Protector Zong’s trust, but for some reason, the Chief Protector always treated you indifferently, seemingly not considering you a confidant.]
[In the fourth year, you still provided the Descending Sect with two hundred Organ Refining Pills every month. However, Protector Zong did not offer you any additional benefits, which you found suspicious, and thus you prepared to confront him.]
Su Xing showed a puzzled expression when he read this.
“Logically speaking, since I can refine elixirs, Protector Zong certainly should have trained me to be a confidant, but apparently, he does not think the same?”
“Where is there such reasoning, to make the horse work daily yet not let it graze?”
Su Xing felt uncertain and continued to simulate further.
[One day, you couldn’t bear it any longer and went straight to Protector Zong, stating that you had long heard of his profound research in the path of cultivation, so you wanted to borrow some ancient cultivation books from him.]
[You believed that after doing so much for Protector Zong over the past two years, borrowing a couple of cultivation techniques should not be difficult.]
[After hearing your words, Protector Zong revealed a strange smile and pulled out the Changchun Technique from his bosom. He said, “You joined the Descending Sect for this Changchun Technique, didn’t you?”]
[Shockwaves surged in your heart – how could Protector Zong know your thoughts? But on the surface, you still pretended to be calm, insisting that you merely agreed with the Descending Sect’s ideals and that your desire for ancient cultivation books was merely out of interest.]
[Upon hearing this, Protector Zong chuckled, looking at you with a meaningful gaze, then handed over the Changchun Technique to you. He told you to work hard and that one day you would become a protector like him.]
[You were not interested in becoming a so-called protector, but the Changchun Technique that you had longed for day and night was finally in your hands, giving you a surreal feeling.]
[For a moment, you even suspected that Sect Elder Zong had given you a fake technique.]
[But after repeated verification, you finally confirmed that this was indeed the authentic Changchun Technique, and it was the complete version, including all the cultivation methods for Qi Refinement Realm, Foundation Establishment Stage, Golden Core Stage, Nascent Soul Stage, Divinity Transformation Stage, and Return to Void Realm!]
“Is this… success!?”
Seeing this, Su Xing was so excited that his face flushed. He had learned of the whereabouts of the latter half of the Changchun Technique from his simulations which began over a dozen tries ago, gradually understanding that the technique was in the hands of Protector Zong.
Su Xing knew that Protector Zong was no simple character; he had even been prepared to spend a large number of simulations to grind against Protector Zong, even if it took simulating ten or eight times to bring back the Changchun Technique.
Yet unexpectedly, he succeeded so smoothly, obtaining the Changchun Technique on his first try.
“Regardless, now that I have the Changchun Technique in hand, even if I were to perish soon in the simulation, I would still be able to bring the Changchun Technique out with me!”
Su Xing took a deep breath, steadying his emotions overwhelmed by the sudden joy, and chose to continue simulating.
[With the complete Changchun Technique in your possession, you could not put it down, repeatedly scrutinizing it.]
[You discovered that in the latter half of the Changchun Technique, apart from the basic cultivation incantations, there were also some cultivation insights passed down through generations of the Changchun Sect.]
[Although your cultivation technique was sufficient to reach the Return to Void Realm, you were currently only a Golden Core Stage cultivator, still troubled over condensing a superior Golden Core.]
[In the fifth year, you diligently cultivated, took Essence-Nourishing Pills daily, and strove to enhance your Qi Refining Cultivation. Your cultivation level broke through to the third level of the Golden Core Stage, and your Golden Core became increasingly perfect.]
