While Others are Leveling Up, I Alone Will Cultivate Until Mahayana Before Making My Move

Chapter 46: Chapter 46 The Mystery of the Cultivator, the Fierce Intervention of the Dragon Protector!

Su Xing also wanted to explore the secrets behind that Sect Elder, but unfortunately, there seemed to be no chance in this simulation, and he could only wait for the next one to try.

Su Xing held the pill concoction manual in his hand, then strolled around the treasure trove's area for heavenly materials and earthly treasures.

This stroll truly surprised Su Xing; his eyes couldn't move away from the shelves.

"Century-old Blood Ginseng... the main ingredient for concocting Blood Replenishing Pills, hiss, to actually have such a good thing?"

"Fifty-year-old Returning Yang Grass, the main ingredient for concocting Returning Yang Pills, one piece alone could revive someone on the brink of death!"

"And there's two-hundred-year-old Dragon Swallow Grass, five-hundred-year-old Zi Xin Flower... Mama Mia, does this treasure trove just uproot an entire sect's medicine garden or what?"

Su Xing found it a bit hard to believe; he easily identified most of the spiritual medicines' names with his decent alchemy skills and the knowledge of distinguishing spiritual medicines he had learned from the Shennong Spiritual Nurturing Technique.

These spiritual medicines were extremely precious and varied in type, from several hundred years old to just over a decade old, available in vast quantities – the treasure trove probably contained tens of thousands of spiritual medicines.

"Mama Mia, how many elixirs could be concocted from this?"

Su Xing's eyes were filled with envy; it would take him hundreds of years to obtain these spiritual medicines by planting them in the Spirit Field Blessed Land.

But now, all of these spiritual medicines were laid out in front of Su Xing...

The key point was that in the entire Descending Sect, only Su Xing could bring out the medicinal properties of these herbs, which meant that these spiritual medicines were practically exclusive to Su Xing!

Although the elixirs concocted by Su Xing could only be used by people of the Descending Sect, the alchemy techniques he mastered during the process were solidly retained.

That is to say, the Descending Sect was simply a holy land for Su Xing to grind alchemy experience!

Su Xing struggled to move his gaze away from the spiritual medicines and said to the Shadow Elder standing beside him:

"The collection of spiritual medicines in your Descending Sect's treasure trove is really comprehensive; it's been a real treat for the eyes!"

After hearing this, the Shadow Elder patted Su Xing's shoulder and corrected him:

"It's our Descending Sect now! You are now the eighteenth Elder of our sect! And there's only you, an Alchemist in our entire sect, so you may freely command them as you need!"

Pausing for a moment, the Shadow Elder added:

"Of course, this is also because the heavenly materials and earthly treasures in the treasure trove are almost all managed by our Nature Faction, which is why we have such great privileges!"

Su Xing's eyes widened at this, and he excitedly said:

"Really? I can actually concoct several impressive elixirs... it's only been because I lacked the right medicinal materials that I couldn't concoct them!"

Upon hearing Su Xing's words, the Shadow Elder got excited too and quickly said:

"The spiritual medicines in the treasure trove can naturally be managed by you, as long as there is a proper log kept whenever someone comes to take them!"

"And the elixirs that are concocted should be turned over to the sect... Of course, you can keep a portion for yourself and earn a considerable amount of contribution points!"

Su Xing nodded repeatedly; being able to gain experience in alchemy was enough for him.

If every simulation provided such abundant medicinal materials for Su Xing to concoct new elixirs, it might only take a few rounds of simulations for Su Xing's alchemy skills to progress from beginner level to a level of minor accomplishment.

By then, Su Xing could even attempt to concoct mid-grade elixirs!

Lower-grade Essence-Nourishing Pills, Organ Refining Pills, and other similar elixirs already had such effects; not to mention mid-grade elixirs, which would certainly lead to a qualitative increase in the speed of Su Xing's cultivation level!

And... the most crucial point was that these people from the Descending Sect had no clue about alchemy!

If he said he needed a certain amount of elixirs, that was the number that would be authorized, and if he claimed he needed a hundred pieces of spiritual medicine but only used ten, the remaining ninety could be kept for his own use – wouldn't that be delightful?

That was what Su Xing thought and also what he did.

He immediately requested over a hundred pieces of spiritual medicine from the Shadow Protector, stating that with these medicines, he could concoct new elixirs for the sect within half a year.

Shadow Protector naturally wouldn't refuse and agreed to Su Xing's request directly.

Afterward, when leaving the sect's treasure vault, Shadow Protector said to Su Xing:

"Elder Yao, hand over the Condensation Technique and the herbs you acquired earlier to Dragon Protector for registration..."

Su Xing nodded at the words and then showed Dragon Protector the items he had taken out.

When Dragon Protector saw the Condensation Technique, a flicker of surprise crossed his ageless and tranquil face, and he asked:

"Are you a cultivator?"

Su Xing's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly explained:

"My profession is that of a practitioner, but I have no cultivation level... I want these alchemy techniques merely to study alchemy!"

Dragon Protector heard this and frowned slightly, then suddenly grabbed Su Xing and placed his hand on Su Xing's pulse.

Immediately afterward, Dragon Protector's expression changed dramatically and he said:

"No, you are a Golden Core Stage cultivator! Who exactly are you? How is it that in this age of decline, you have managed to cultivate to the Golden Core Stage!"

"Where did you get your spiritual energy resources and Spirit Stones from?"

Seeing Dragon Protector's strong reaction, Shadow Protector hurriedly explained:

"Dragon Protector, could you have misunderstood something? How could Elder Yao possibly be a Golden Core Stage cultivator? He doesn't even have any Spirit Stones..."

Upon hearing this, Dragon Protector let out a cold snort and extended a bony, emaciated hand toward Su Xing.

Su Xing's heart jumped, realizing Dragon Protector could actually see through his cultivation level...

It should be known, ordinary professionals could not see Su Xing's cultivation level; their insight abilities could only detect that Su Xing was at the Bronze Level One professional rank.

And the only ones capable of detecting Su Xing's cultivation level were cultivators!

Was this Elder Long a cultivator?

And moreover, a very powerful one at that!

Su Xing's mind was suddenly flooded with thousands of thoughts, but Elder Long's hand seemed to flash with a mysterious glow.

At that moment, a system prompt sounded in Su Xing's ears.

[Ding, this immersive simulation has ended...]

As the prompt fell, Su Xing's consciousness instantly returned to the real world.

Su Xing quickly checked the simulator, wanting to see exactly what sort of figure this Elder Long was.

[Inside the Descending Sect's vault, you were subjected to a Soul Search by Dragon Protector, and the simulator automatically blocked the memories related to the simulator from your mind.]

[Dragon Protector's Soul Search on you lasted for more than ten minutes; he learned that you did not truly wish to join the Descending Sect, but he seemed not to care about it.]

[Because your memory was modified, in the eyes of Dragon Protector, you were just a lucky individual who happened to have acquired a small amount of Spirit Stones and cultivation techniques.]

[You were Soul Searched for a full ten minutes, and after the Soul Search concluded, you became a vegetable.]

[Dragon Protector, seeing your idiotic, drooling state, was displeased and slapped you into dust.]

[You died!]

[Ding, this simulation has ended!]
