[You are shocked. This puppet's physical strength is probably not weaker than that of a cultivator in the Void Breaking Realm!]
[Your sword energy barely caused any damage to it, and the puppet arrived in front of you in a split second and punched you!]
[Seeing this, you quickly wrap your energy around your fists to resist.]
[Your fists collide, and you fly backwards and hit the stone wall, with blood flowing from your mouth.]
[You find it a little unbelievable that this puppet's pure physical strength is actually superior to yours, and its physical strength is much higher than yours.]
[You are certain in your heart that this is a puppet that can rival a cultivator in the Void Breaking Realm! ]
[After you were knocked away by a punch, you could see the puppet's appearance clearly with the help of the faint light coming from the wall.]
[He looks exactly like a human, but his skin is unusually pale, like a vampire in Western legends. His withered and wrinkled skin makes him look extremely creepy.]
[This seems to be a living dead, who was sacrificed and refined into a powerful puppet. ]
[While you are thinking, this puppet attacks you again. ]
[After dozens of rounds of fierce fighting, you have been injured in many places. ]
[The puppet's attack becomes more fierce, and the endless power coming from its body makes it almost impossible for you to resist.]
[Your battle caused mysterious fluctuations to continuously emanate from the surrounding stone walls. It was some kind of defensive formation, seemingly intended to prevent the collapse of this ancient tomb.]
[You have persisted for more than ten rounds, but it is already difficult to resist. The strength of this living dead puppet is much stronger than Zong Laogou.]
[You know you are no match for him, so you want to leave the ruins. ]
[However, the zombie puppets kept chasing you, and after fighting for dozens of rounds, your body disintegrated and was smashed into pulp.]
[After your soul leaves your body, you prepare to continue running away, but the zombie puppet simply stretches out its right hand and grabs your soul.]
[Put it in your mouth, and you feel a huge suction force swallowing up your soul. ]
【You are dead! 】
[Ding, this simulation ends! ]
After the simulation ended, Su Xing looked at the words in front of him and was silent for a long time.
"As expected of a great sect that once gave birth to an immortal... Even a puppet has the strength comparable to that of a Void Breaker?"
Su Xing was somewhat glad that he did not choose to rush into the ruins directly, otherwise he would have lost a level of the Divine Transformation Realm.
Now that the 25-year simulation time is up, it won’t be a loss even if I die.
Su Xing stroked his chin and murmured:
"This puppet should be the guardian puppet of the ancient tomb ruins, right? Who is the owner of this ancient tomb ruins? Even the guardian puppet can rival the cultivators in the Void Breaking Realm!"
"Hiss... At least he is at the Great Perfection of Return to Void Realm, or even a cultivator of Fusion Stage, right?"
Su Xing sighed in his heart and said, "What a pity. With my current strength, I can only hold out for a few dozen rounds against a Void Breaking Realm expert..."
"If you want to defeat this puppet, I'm afraid you still have to cultivate to the Void Breaking Realm before you have any hope!"
“But there must be a big secret hidden in this ancient tomb. If I can achieve the Void Breaking Realm, I might be able to visit the ancient tomb again!”
Su Xing carefully recalled what happened in the simulation just now and listed a few key points.
“First, this ancient tomb is definitely not a place where a cultivator is sleeping. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be cultivators at the Void Breaking and Spiritual Transformation stages who died thousands of years ago.”
"Secondly, there is a faint spiritual energy in the ancient tomb. Perhaps it contains a spiritual flower, or perhaps it is a spiritual vein! However... I am more inclined to the latter!"
"The last and most important point is, what is the identity of the tomb owner? Could the heavenly-level martial art, Ten Thousand Trees Technique, be in the possession of the tomb owner?"
Thinking of this, Su Xing took a deep breath.
Whether it is the advanced technique of Changchun Gong, Wanmu Jue, or the spiritual veins in the ancient tomb, they are all great temptations for Su Xing! When he is strong enough, he must go there again!
"Unfortunately, my Yuanli has not yet advanced to the third level, and it will be a long time before I can enter the Void Breaking Realm..."
"Let's take one step at a time and take care of the things in front of us!"
Su Xing sighed and looked at the simulation panel with some anticipation.
[Equipment Refining Wizard]: Purple talent, priced at 1 million energy points.
[Ten Years of Alchemy Experience]: Alchemy insights, sold for 500,000 energy.
[The fourth level of the Spiritual Transformation Stage]: Qi Refining Stage, sold for 30 million energy.
[Xuan Huang Gong]: A Xuan-level martial arts technique that can be cultivated to the highest level of Return to Void Stage. It is a component of the Tian-level martial arts technique Wan Mu Jue and is sold for 1 million energy.
[Floating Life Skill]: A Mystical-level skill that can be cultivated to the Return to Void stage at the highest level. It is a component of the Heaven-level skill, the Ten Thousand Trees Skill. It is sold for 2 million energy.
[10,000 drops of inferior spiritual fluid]: Condensed from extremely rich spiritual energy, it can warm the dantian, promote cultivation, and is very easy to absorb. The price is 1 million energy.
[Eight Trigrams Fortune Telling Technique (Incomplete)]: A heavenly secret technique, which records the lower part of the secret technique, the human fortune chapter, which can be used to predict good and bad fortune. It is not as valuable as the national fortune chapter, and is sold for 30 million energy.
[2,300 Spirit Gathering Flowers (mature stage), 1,500 Spirit Gathering Flower seeds]: Selling price is 245 million energy.
[Experiences in cultivating Yuanli (Entanglement Level)]: Although the realm has not been broken through, the understanding of Yuanli has improved. The price is 8 million energy.
Su Xing gained a lot from this simulation.
Not only did he make a great breakthrough in his Qi Refining skills, he even explored a new copy of the Immortal Martial Era and found the way to break through the void for the future.
"So, with so many rewards, how do I choose?"
Su Xing looked at the reward in front of him and fell into deep thought.
Although Su Xing has a talent for refining equipment, he currently has no plans to refine equipment, nor does he have a refining manual.
You can put it in the talent pool temporarily and draw it out when the time is right.
Although Xuanhuang Gong and Fusheng Gong are Xuan-level skills, Su Xing is currently practicing Changchun Gong, and these two skills are not worth Su Xing wasting a simulation opportunity.
Perhaps in the future I could directly obtain the Wanmu Jue in the simulation and then bring it out, which would be more convenient.
"As for the lower-grade spiritual fluid..."
Su Xing shook his head slightly.
The inferior spiritual liquid comes from the Lingtian Cave, which means it indirectly comes from the Lingling Flower.
If you choose spiritual liquid directly, you would be missing the point.
Moreover, ten thousand drops of spiritual liquid are not a lot. Perhaps you can accumulate more of it later and bring out the spiritual liquid accumulated over twenty years at one time. This will greatly increase your practice speed.
I have already memorized the Eight Trigrams fortune-telling technique, so there is no need to waste the opportunity.
And the cultivation of Yuanli did not trigger any enlightenment, so it was not worth choosing.
After hesitating for a moment, Su Xing decided:
"I choose the fourth level of the Spiritual Transformation Cultivation Stage, and the Spiritual Gathering Flower!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the simulator's prompt sound rang in Su Xing's ears.
[You have successfully brought out the fourth level of the Spiritualization Stage, spending 30 million energy points, and the remaining energy points are 455.43 million points.]
[You have successfully brought out 2,300 Soul Gathering Flowers and 1,500 Soul Gathering Flower seeds, spending 245 million energy points, and the remaining energy is 210.43 million points.]
Looking at the sudden drop in simulated energy in the simulator, Su Xing's heart was bleeding.
But it was all worth it! The next second, Su Xing's aura began to rise! The first level of the Spiritualization Stage... the second level of the Spiritualization Stage... the third level of the Spiritualization Stage! Finally, the fourth level of the Spiritualization Stage! In just a few breaths, Su Xing's cultivation broke through three small realms in succession.
Finally, he stayed at the fourth level of the Spiritual Transformation Stage, and was not far from the fifth level! "Hiss... the middle stage of the Spiritual Transformation Stage... the spiritual power in his body has increased by more than 50% compared to before!"
"This means that I can make better pills and ripen elixirs!"
The corners of Su Xing's mouth rose slightly. Although the fourth level of the Spirit Transformation Stage did not have much impact on Su Xing's combat power.
But it can still further improve Su Xing's ability to make money.
"So...what about the Soul Gathering Flower?"
Su Xing's heart moved, and when he looked up, he saw white flowers all over the mountains.
Gathered together in clusters, these lovely soul-gathering flowers made Su Xing's mood suddenly very good!
“Hahaha… There are nearly 3,500 Spirit Gathering Flowers. This number is enough to upgrade the Spiritual Field Blessed Land to a Cave Heaven!”
Su Xing couldn't wait to get near the spirit-gathering flowers, and sure enough, he saw these lovely white flowers working hard to absorb and exhale spiritual energy.
With every inhalation and exhalation, more spiritual energy will be released!
With such a conscientious cycle, the spiritual energy content of the entire mountain is increasing rapidly! Su Xing looked at this scene with satisfaction and nodded: "Yes, at this rate, it may not take more than half a month for the spiritual field blessed land to be promoted to a cave heaven!"
It is not possible to upgrade a blessed land to a cave paradise overnight. Instead, it requires that the spiritual energy content in the blessed land is sufficient.
More than three thousand spirit-gathering flowers were madly releasing spiritual energy, like several tireless spiritual energy-producing machines, allowing the blessed land to slowly evolve.
By then, not only will Su Xing's cultivation speed increase a lot, but even the growth rate of the spiritual plants and spiritual pets in the portable spiritual field will accelerate.
"Of course, the most important thing is the spiritual fluid!"
Su Xing carefully collected the seeds of the Spirit Gathering Flower and did not rush to plant them. Instead, he packed up and prepared to leave the spiritual field.
Follow the trajectory of the future in the simulation.
Today will be the last class reunion in college.
Although Su Xing is not familiar with most of his classmates, his mood will be improved if he participates.
Soon, Su Xing came out of the Lingtian blessed land, returned to the dormitory, and saw Fatty Yu who had been waiting for a long time.
Fatty Yu seemed to be in a good mood. He came over, patted Su Xing on the shoulder and said:
"Xiao Suzi! Don't run around tonight. It's the last class reunion and I'm here to call you!"
Fatty Yu still looked the same, but after not seeing him for some time, his round face seemed a little rounder.
Su Xing nodded when he heard this. He was going to attend this party.
After thinking for a while, Su Xing asked:
"Fatty, where are you going after graduation?"
After hearing this, Fatty Yu looked around, then gave Su Xing a mysterious look and said, "Brother is going to Zhenyao Pass to kill the enemy!"
"Strangely enough, my strength has improved rapidly during this period, and I have already broken through to the Grandmaster level... I am ready to go to the Demon Suppression Pass and kill those monsters!"
Su Xing frowned slightly after hearing this.
According to Fatty Yu's original life trajectory, he should not have broken through to the Grandmaster level by now.
I guess it was the Yang Yuan Dan that Su Xing gave him that helped him break through.
But Su Xing knew better than anyone how dangerous the Demon-Suppressing Pass was.
Will Fatty Yu’s life be in danger if he goes to the Demon-Suppressing Pass?
Su Xing's heart moved and he was about to remind him, but then he thought that the Demon-Suppressing Pass today is not as dangerous as it will be ten years later.
If he had not died, Fatty Yu's strength would probably have been further improved in the Demon-Suppressing Pass.
With Fatty Yu's talent, he might even complete his life transformation in a few years and be promoted to the Heavenly King level! Thinking of this, Su Xing did not persuade Yu Yan, but took out a bottle of pills from his pocket and handed it to Fatty Yu.
"Fatty, this is a pill I accidentally found in a dungeon. It can slightly increase spiritual attributes. I have no use for it... so I'll give it to you!"
After hearing this, Fatty Yu grinned and took it without hesitation.
Then he gave Su Xing a look, winked and said, "Brother, I understand! Don't worry, I will take this pill alone!"
Seeing Fatty Yu's clever expression, Su Xing was a little surprised. Could it be that this guy really saw something? But then Fatty Yu put his arm around Su Xing's shoulder and left the dormitory, heading towards the gathering place.
"Let's go, we are all waiting impatiently!"
Soon, Su Xing and Fatty Yu arrived at an old food stall opposite the school.
The price is not expensive, but the taste is excellent, and Su Xing comes to eat here occasionally.
There were about twenty classmates attending the party. Except for Fatty Yu, Su Xing was just an acquaintance of the others, and he couldn't even remember the names of some of them.
"Come on, come on, brothers, let's go!"
"Hahaha! I heard that you were promoted to master level some time ago? You have to pay for this meal!"
"Xiao Liu is doing well, right? I heard that he was recruited by a big chamber of commerce. He may even be able to break through to the Grandmaster level in the future!"
A group of young people in their early twenties gathered together, their faces flushed from drinking.
At this moment, a tall and thin young man stood up, raised the wine glass in his hand and said: "Haha, everyone doesn't know yet, right? Fatty Yu broke through to become a master-level professional some time ago! In our class, his strength can be ranked in the top three!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the other students looked at him with envy and then toasted Yu Yan.
The atmosphere of the whole party was quite good.
Only Su Xing was sitting alone in the corner, occasionally drinking a few glasses of wine with Yu Yan, and occasionally drinking alone.
There was no scene of pretentiousness and then slapping each other in the face as imagined. Although these classmates were not very enthusiastic about Su Xing, they did not exclude him either.
Perhaps out of respect for Fatty Yu, several classmates toasted Su Xing a few times.
Su Xing responded one by one.
Looking at these young faces in front of him, Su Xing couldn't help but recall the scene when he just started school four years ago.
At that time, Su Xing was in high spirits and was known as a genius that Kyoto Academy rarely sees in ten years!
Relying on the strong physique of a body-refining cultivator, Su Xing even crushed the group of chosen ones who had just reached the bronze level.
Winning first place in the freshman competition...
However, things are unpredictable, and Su Xing soon found that he could not upgrade and his strength could hardly be improved.
It turned out that those enthusiastic friends gradually drifted away.
Even the teachers were completely disappointed with Su Xing...
It was not until more than half a year ago, after Su Xing obtained the golden finger, that he fully grew up.
"In just half a year, I went from being a first-level Qi Refining cultivator to a Spiritual Transformation expert... This is truly a wonderful experience!"
Su Xing thought so, and for a moment he had a deep understanding in his heart.
“However, whether you are at Qi Refining or Spiritual Transformation… whether you are at Bronze or Legendary… if you don’t become the strongest person in the world, you will eventually die in that shocking event!”
Su Xing took a sip of wine silently, recalling everything he had experienced in the fifth level of transformation.
He sighed, "If a cultivator wants to live forever... how can he be so particular about small matters? The cold stares, ups and downs he has experienced over the years..."
"It's just a little bit of hardship during the cultivation process!"
He drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and Su Xing's determination to seek the truth became even stronger.
At this moment, Su Xing's state of mind improved...
In the middle of the night, the party ended and Su Xing helped the drunk Fatty Yu back to the dormitory.
Looking at the soundly sleeping Yu Yan, Su Xing silently entered the spiritual field on his body and used his spiritual power to dispel the drunkenness.
"Hey, let's continue refining the elixir!"
Su Xing began to live a life of alchemy with skill.
A week passed quickly.
Most of the students who woke up this week have graduated and left school.
But Su Xing's life was as regular as ever. As expected, Liu Xiaodong informed him that he would be held back a grade. Su Xing was not annoyed, but continued to make pills.
Soon, on July 8, Su Xing met Jin Congxue with the elixir.
Jin Congxue wore a beautiful red dress today, warm and unrestrained.
"Hehe, big boss... congratulations on your graduation!"
Jin Congxue smiled and said to Su Xing.
Su Xing rolled his eyes and said, "Forget it, I'm going to fail a grade!"
Jin Congxue was a little confused when he heard this, and was shocked: "No way, with your ability, you will be held back. Is the threshold of Kyoto Academy so high?"
Su Xing gave a brief explanation after hearing this.
Then he thought of something and said to Jin Congxue:
"By the way, please arrange a leisurely job for me in Kyoto University, such as a librarian!"
"School is about to start in September, and I don't want to live in the same dormitory with my junior classmates... It would be better if I could have a single dormitory, which would be more convenient for me!"
After hearing this, Jin Congxue nodded slightly and understood what Su Xing meant.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of this little thing. You can report to the library tomorrow! The last one?"
After saying that, Jin Congxue covered her mouth and chuckled, looking very charming.
Su Xing also smiled, chatted with Jin Congxue for a few more words, and then returned to the empty dormitory with the new week's goods.
"That guy Fatty Yu, shouldn't be in trouble at the Demon Suppression Pass?"
"The Demon-Suppressing Pass is still relatively safe now. If there's a chance in the future... I can give him some more treasures. It shouldn't be a big problem..."
Su Xing shook his head slightly, and then entered the spiritual field blessed land.
By exchanging the goods of the new week for simulated energy, the awakening energy increased by another 16 million points.
It was a considerable number, but for Su Xing, who had experienced the “big deal”, it was only considered good.
On the afternoon of July 8, 2024, in the new era, Su Xing started a new round of simulation on time.
"Start simulation!"
[Ding! This simulation consumed 4,400 energy points, the remaining energy is 226,380,000 points, and there are no remaining simulation times.]
[Simulation starts! ]
[It costs 1000 energy points to extract green talent, 10,000 energy points to extract blue talent, and 100,000 energy points to extract purple talent. Do you want to extract? ]
"Extract purple talent!"
Su Xing muttered to himself.
[Congratulations on getting the purple talent: small but cute! ]
