    Su Xing nodded slightly as he looked at the simulation.

    The simulated future unfolded as he expected, with his spiritual sense further enhanced and his alchemy skills becoming more refined.

    Everything was developing for the better…

    [In the eleventh year, you have thoroughly studied the Fire-Control Alchemy Technique and want to try refining new pills with the existing spiritual herbs.]

    [After your research, you discovered that you can refine pills like the Clear Heart Pill, Tortoise Shell Pill, and Blood Purification Pill.]

    [Among them, the Clear Heart Pill is a mid-grade pill, similar in effect to the Mirror Pill you previously refined, but with a stronger effect and fewer side effects, allowing for continuous consumption.]

    [The Tortoise Shell Pill and Blood Purification Pill are low-grade pills. The Tortoise Shell Pill, when consumed, can temporarily enhance the physical defense, while the Blood Purification Pill can dispel earthly poisons.]

    [In the following two years, you practice daily and begin researching these new pills.]

    [In the thirteenth year, you successfully achieve a small level of proficiency in refining the Tortoise Shell Pill and Blood Purification Pill.]

    [However, refining the Clear Heart Pill is not easy, and you have yet to achieve mastery.]

    [In the fourteenth year, your spiritual sense continued to grow, reaching a range of nine hundred zhang!]

    [In the same year, your body-refining cultivation advanced to the third level of the God Power Realm!]

    [In the sixteenth year, after several years of learning, you have achieved mastery in refining the Clear Heart Pill.]

    [During your cultivation, you discovered that taking the Clear Heart Pill allows you to enter a state of concentration more quickly, immersing yourself in your cultivation and significantly improving your cultivation speed.]

    [Unfortunately, your cultivation remains at the Great Perfection stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. You are not prepared to break through before refining the top-grade Forging Infant Pill.]

    [In the seventeenth year, you give the Forging Infant Pill to the Heavenly King-level professionals to see if it can enhance their strength.]

    [But sadly, even ordinary people, even professionals, cannot have Nascent Souls, so the Forging Infant Pill has no effect on them whatsoever.]

    Su Xing nodded slightly as he read, muttering:

    “Indeed, compared to the pills taken by Qi Refining Cultivators, the pills taken by body refining Cultivators are more helpful to professionals…”

    Su Xing wasn’t surprised. He continued with the simulation.

    [Time passes slowly, and two more years have passed. During these two years, you have consistently taken the Soul Condensation Pill to strengthen your spiritual sense. Your spiritual sense range has expanded further, reaching nine hundred and seventy zhang!]

    [In the twentieth year, you encounter a planned assassination.]

    [You’ve experienced at least hundreds of assassinations over the years, but this one was the closest to you.]

    [A high-ranking military officer from Great Summer invited you to dinner at his house. You couldn’t decline his invitation, so you agreed.]

    [But what awaited you was a treacherous feast!]

    [It turned out that this military officer was a spy planted by the Descent Sect. During the banquet, they poisoned you, and then arranged for two legendary-level powerhouses to kill you.]

    [After the poison entered your body, you couldn’t activate your spiritual force, so you couldn’t enter the Spirit Field Paradise to seek refuge.]

    [Fortunately, Luo Shuying has been protecting you. She fought fiercely against the two legendary powerhouses, ultimately holding out until the Great Summer military came to their aid.]

    [But by then, Luo Shuying had been seriously injured and fell into a coma for a month before recovering from the brink of death, leaving her with a lifelong ailment.]

    Su Xing sighed as he read.

    Sure enough, as long as he was exposed, he would be met with endless assassination attempts.

    This further strengthened Su Xing’s belief that he had to develop steadily before gaining sufficient strength.

    He continued with the simulation.

    [In the twenty-first year, your spiritual sense grows to nine hundred and ninety zhang, not far from the thousand zhang spiritual sense you once achieved.]

    [In the twenty-second year, you suddenly sense a familiar presence in the capital city. You follow the presence and discover an old beggar you’ve never seen before.]

    [After repeated confirmation, you realize that this old beggar is actually the elder Dog!]

    [He has been hiding from the pursuit of the Descent Sect all these years, and now he has infiltrated the capital city alone. Perhaps it has something to do with you.]

    [But you remain uninterested in him. Nowadays, you rarely leave the Spirit Field Paradise. Even when you do, you have Luo Shuying protecting you, so this old Dog poses no threat to you.]

    [In the twenty-third year, your spiritual sense grows to nine hundred and ninety-nine zhang. Only one step remains before it reaches perfection.]

    [In the same year, the situation for the human race at the Demon-Suppressing Pass becomes increasingly dire.]

    [In the twenty-fourth year, you successfully achieve a thousand zhang spiritual sense. You know that this mission has been completed, so you decide to enjoy the rest of your life.]

    [In the twenty-fifth year, the giant beast descends and swallows the entire Great Summer Country in one gulp.]

    [You die. Your Unforgettable Talent activates… ]

    [Ding! This simulation has ended!]

    After the simulation ended, Su Xing closed his eyes and pondered, reflecting on this simulation.

    A moment later, Su Xing opened his eyes and sighed:

    “As expected, directly revealing the longevity pill wasn’t a wise choice… The subsequent impact is too great. I need to find a more covert way…”

    “But since a direct revelation won’t work, perhaps I can disguise my identity?”

    Su Xing stroked his chin, lost in thought.

    “Well, I still need some time to gather those precious herbs. For now, I’ll choose the simulation reward!”

    The thought of the simulation reward filled Su Xing with excitement.

    [Living Buddha]: Purple Quality Innate Talent, priced at 1 million energy points.

    [Twenty-Five Years of Alchemy Experience]: Alchemy insights, including partial mastery of the Forging Infant Pill (Small Completion Stage), Clear Heart Pill (Entry Stage), Mirror Pill (Great Completion Stage), Longevity Pill (Great Completion Stage), Tortoise Shell Pill (Great Completion Stage), and Blood Purification Pill (Great Completion Stage), priced at 6 million energy points.

    [God Power Realm Triple]: Body refining cultivation, priced at 20 million energy points!

    [Thousand Zhang Spiritual Sense (Five Senses Realm)]: Possesses a thousand zhang spiritual sense, able to sense the slightest movement within a thousand zhang, priced at 9.5 million energy points.

    [Lifeline Pill (Ten Pills)]: Priced at 3 million energy points.

    Su Xing glanced at the simulation reward options, sighing:

    “I didn’t expect the Lifeline Pill to be so cheap, but if it were auctioned off, the energy earned would likely multiply by dozens…”

    “However, there’s no rush to exchange it right now. My tens of millions of energy points are enough for now… Besides, when I bring out the alchemy experience, I can refine the Lifeline Pill myself, saving me a reward selection opportunity.”

    Thinking this, Su Xing said without hesitation:

    “I choose twenty-five years of alchemy experience and a thousand zhang spiritual sense!”

    As soon as he spoke, a prompt echoed in his ears.

    [You have successfully brought out twenty-five years of alchemy experience, costing 6 million energy points. Remaining energy: 39.23 million points.]

    [You have successfully brought out a thousand zhang spiritual sense (Five Senses Realm), costing 9.5 million energy points. Remaining energy: 29.73 million points.]

    After making his choice, two mysterious energies surged into Su Xing’s body.

    First came the mastery of numerous alchemy techniques and memories.

    In just a few seconds, it felt as if Su Xing had gained decades of alchemy experience, his mind filled with refining techniques for various pills, including the Forging Infant Pill and the Clear Heart Pill.

    The benefits of alchemy insights weren’t just learning new pills. Su Xing’s understanding of the pills he had already mastered would deepen, and even his insights into the Dao of Alchemy would grow.

    “When you think about it, I’m an alchemy master with hundreds of years of experience now, right?”

    Su Xing’s lips curved into a slight smile. He now possessed over twenty pills, including several mid-grade pills!

    Hundreds of years of alchemy insights combined with the innate talent of an alchemy prodigy. In the ordinary cultivation world, Su Xing would already be an alchemy master capable of establishing his own sect.

    Next, Su Xing began to spread out his spiritual sense, experiencing the newly acquired energy, the thousand zhang spiritual sense!

    Boom!

    The spiritual sense spread out like a vast ocean, covering the entire Spirit Field Paradise within a hundred zhang in just a few seconds. Every movement of the wind and grass, every expression on the face of each chicken, every wriggle of the spiritual earthworms within the hundred zhang radius, was crystal clear to Su Xing.

    But Su Xing seemed dissatisfied, frowning slightly:

    “The Spirit Field Paradise is still too small…”

    With that, Su Xing appeared in a secluded corner within the school.

    Then, he unleashed his spiritual sense!

    Hundred zhang… five hundred zhang… thousand zhang!

    It was as if countless eyes and ears had been added. With Su Xing as the center, within a thousand zhang, any movement, any sound, was perceived by Su Xing.

    “Hmm, lunch in the cafeteria today is braised pork…”

    “Over at the gymnasium, there seem to be new students about to enroll for a tour?”

    “The female dormitory in the north campus… cough! I am a virtuous gentleman, I shouldn’t be thinking like this!”

    “Hmm? The small grove behind the south campus… There seems to be a couple… whoa, that’s way too fast!”

    Su Xing couldn’t help but get playful.

    Staying in the dormitory, yet being able to see and hear every scene with his own eyes and ears, this feeling was truly profound.

    With Su Xing’s thousand zhang spiritual sense, he could cover almost half of the Kyoto Academy. In other words, within this academy, nothing could escape Su Xing’s eyes.

    “Tsk tsk, this spiritual sense is truly fun… It just consumes a bit too much mental energy…”

    Su Xing lightly rubbed his temples. Just half an hour of spreading his spiritual sense had left him feeling slightly exhausted.

    “Reaching a thousand zhang spiritual sense at the Nascent Soul Stage… How terrifying would it be if I reached the Divine Transformation Realm?

    “And this spiritual sense has been marked as ‘Five Senses Realm’ all along. Could there be even higher realms? With more functions?”

    Su Xing realized he had underestimated the power of spiritual sense!

    Fifty zhang spiritual sense, indeed, was not very useful.

    But if the radius expanded twenty times, a thousand zhang, over three kilometers in range, it was almost like covering an entire district, or a large town!

    If it expanded another ten times, it could cover an entire city!

    “Cultivators refine their spiritual sense internally, and their pills externally… Truly, the ancients were not deceiving us. The power of spiritual sense is truly astonishing!”

    Su Xing’s current use of spiritual sense was not yet profound.

    In the future, when he mastered the techniques of using spiritual sense and broke into higher realms, he would truly unleash the terrifying power of spiritual sense.

    After all, the power of cultivators didn’t lie solely in refining pills. The various mystical divine abilities they possessed were what truly brought out the true potential of cultivators!
