Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!

Su Xing muttered a few words.

After that, he glanced at the time, guessing that Jin Congxue was already waiting in the villa.

So, Su Xing tidied up a bit and left the Immortal Martial Era instance.

A few hours later, Su Xing appeared in Jin Congxue's villa.

Today, Jin Congxue wore a cool long dress and greeted Su Xing from afar.

"Busy man, what have you been busy with this week?"

Jin Congxue playfully blinked and then asked in a low voice:

"Ahem, has the organization given you any new tasks?"

Su Xing was momentarily taken aback by Jin Congxue's sudden mysteriousness. Then he recalled and thought for a moment before saying:

"Pretty much... They've asked you to open up the market in America! Get more Abyss Stones over here!"

Jin Congxue patted her ample chest upon hearing this and said righteously: "Leave it to me!"

Soon, the meal was finished, and Su Xing handed over five hundred cubic meters of Alien Metal to Jin Congxue for the week.

He also handed over the Fasting Pills and Nourishing Face Pills.

Because Su Xing hadn't been mining for the past two weeks,

the simulated energy provided by the Tarot Society had sharply decreased. This week, it was only about four hundred million energy points.

Su Xing wasn't in a hurry and knew that the Puppet was a long-term benefit; in less than a month, the proceeds would far exceed the previous ones.

Leaving the villa, Su Xing returned to the Spirit Field Cave.

On May 12, 2025, the new era's cooldown ended, and Su Xing prepared to start a new round of simulation.

"Begin simulation!"

[Ding! This simulation consumes 8,700 energy points. Remaining energy: 13.2 billion points. Remaining simulation times: unlimited.]

[Simulation begins!]

[Drawing a purple talent costs 100,000 energy points. Drawing a golden legendary talent costs 1 million energy points. Would you like to draw?]

Su Xing did not hesitate and decisively said:

"Draw the golden talent!"

[Ding, congratulations! You have obtained the purple talent "Star Calculations Master." The probability of drawing a golden talent next time will be 70%...]

[Star Calculations Master]: A purple talent within the Hundred Arts of Cultivation, able to observe the changes in the stars in the night sky to predict fortunes and misfortunes.

Su Xing: "..."

"Getting purple talents twice in a row, just my little bit of bad luck!"

Su Xing couldn't help but complain, then looked at the description of the talent.

"Star Calculations... If I remember correctly, this seems to be a branch of divination? In some special tribes within the Three Thousand Worlds, wizards seem to practice this..."

Su Xing shook his head slightly, no longer paying attention.

Star Calculations was not a profound art within the Hundred Arts of Cultivation.

"Sigh... Since I haven't drawn a good talent, this simulation will go according to plan!"

A glimmer of determination flashed in Su Xing's eyes.

Currently, Su Xing's cultivation level had reached the peak of the eighth layer of the Mahayana Realm!

Just one step away from reaching the Mahayana Realm of Perfection, at which point he would be ready to prepare for tribulation crossing!

In this simulation, Su Xing intended to prepare for the tribulation crossing...

Besides that, Su Xing needed to further strengthen his most powerful offensive and defensive measure, the Body-Protecting Sword Aura!

With that, Su Xing set his sights on the simulation panel.

[In the Spirit Field Cave, you realized you were simulating.]

[You made the agreed-upon transaction with Lu Yuanwu, and it went smoothly.]

[Ten days later, you headed to the Luo Tian instance!]

In the real world, Su Xing saw this and silently recited:

"Use immersive simulation, duration: 24 hours!"

[Ding...]

As the notification sound fell, Su Xing appeared in the familiar grand hall.

In front of him came the voice of the Supreme Elder, Wu Ge:

"Good disciple, go to the back mountain and invite your Uncle Master Shennong."

Su Xing complied and hurried to the back mountain.

After successfully bringing Shennong Youtian to the grand hall, Su Xing followed Wu Ge to the rear hall.

"Good disciple, what do you wish to ask me?"

Wu Ge stroked his beard and asked, his eyes filled with a look of affection.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Su Xing pondered for a moment upon hearing this and asked:

"Master, my current cultivation level is close to reaching the perfection of the Mahayana Realm... therefore, I wish to ask about tribulation crossing!"

Upon hearing Su Xing's words, Wu Ge slightly nodded, a look of reminiscence flashing through his mind.

"Tribulation crossing! Yes... In a blink of an eye, the little kid who used to run after this old man, wanting to eat the Yellow Immortal Chicken, is about to become an immortal..."

Upon hearing this, Su Xing felt a twinge in his heart, seemingly realizing that in the background of the instance, Luo Xiaochuan—the character Su Xing had taken over—and many people in the sect had deep connections...

While Su Xing was lost in thought, Wu Ge asked:

"Xiaochuan, tell me... What is an immortal?"

Upon hearing Wu Ge's words, Su Xing thought for a moment and replied:

"One who has perfected their mana, enjoying a lifespan of ten thousand years, and living carefree and unrestrained is an immortal..."

Wu Ge did not judge Su Xing's answer but explained:

"The Mahayana Realm and the Immortal Realm seem to be just one realm apart... but it's a divide between mortal and immortal, a world of difference!"

"Even at the peak of the Mahayana Realm, a top cultivator in the mortal world is still a mere mortal, unable to glimpse that immortal path!"

"When you consider the various stages of cultivation, from Qi Refinement to Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul... or Divinity Transformation, Return to Void, Integration Phase, and the Mahayana Realm... all these experiences are in preparation for becoming an immortal!"

"Once you enter Qi Refinement, it's as deep as the sea!"

Su Xing quietly listened as the white-haired Supreme Elder reminisced about his life of becoming an immortal.

Wu Ge continued:

"In the Golden Core Realm... we form the Nine Revolution Golden Core, and in the Nascent Soul stage, we seek to achieve an extraordinary Nascent Soul!"

"All of this is laying the foundation for becoming an immortal!"

"If you don't form the Nine Revolution Golden Core or achieve an extraordinary Nascent Soul... it's impossible to tread the immortal path. This isn't just talk!"

After pausing for a moment, Wu Ge continued:

"And after achieving perfection in the Mahayana Realm, the true test for us mortal cultivators only begins!"

"Xiaochuan, your mana is profound, and your cultivation level is almost at the level of an immortal... Therefore, the most appropriate method is for you to first pass the Mana Pass in the Five Tests of Immortality!"
