While Others are Leveling Up, I Alone Will Cultivate Until Mahayana Before Making My Move 154
by adminSu Xing’s heart stirred as he looked at the simulation panel.
Mindset is a mysterious thing.
For ordinary people, a poor mindset simply means they are less resilient to setbacks, or have a bad personality – this seems to be normal.
But for Cultivators, mindset is crucial.
A strong mindset reduces the probability of developing a mental demon and makes cultivation smoother, with numerous benefits.
“I never thought a classmate reunion could improve my mindset…”
Su Xing was surprised, and he carefully recalled his experiences over the past few years.
From being a gifted prodigy, to being ostracized for his inability to advance, to now, in less than a year, Su Xing had reached the pinnacle of humanity.
Such an experience in life indeed filled him with a profound sense of reflection.
He looked at the simulation panel.
[After a night of heavy drinking, you encountered your headmaster, Liu Xiaodong, the next day.]
[He had a bad attitude, but he didn’t have any leverage over you, so you successfully stayed back, remaining at the Kyoto Academy.]
[Being a student allows you to avoid many troubles, and the academy is also safe enough.]
[One day, you pre-saved your “Great Wisdom” state and headed to the Luo Tian Assembly instance, preparing to investigate the secrets of the Breaking Void Realm.]
[You successfully entered the Luo Tian Assembly instance.]
Su Xing’s heart moved as he read this, and he muttered:
“Use immersive simulation, duration 24 hours!”
[Ding, you have successfully used the immersive simulation function, duration 24 hours, costing 2,400,000 energy points, remaining energy 492,630,000 points.]
As the simulator’s prompt sounded, Su Xing’s vision shifted, and he found himself in the familiar Luo Tian Sect.
“Good disciple, go and bring your Shennong Master Uncle to participate in the Luo Tian Assembly…”
He heard the familiar dialogue of Grand Elder Niu Ruli.
Su Xing first absorbed the additional memory fragments that appeared in his mind.
“Hmm? This time, my identity hasn’t changed, I’m still Niu Ruli’s disciple… but my position within the Luo Tian Sect seems to have improved!”
“The Grand Elder’s direct disciple, a Cultivator who achieved Divine Power Realm Great Perfection before reaching a hundred years old… destined to become a Saint Son?”
Su Xing’s heart stirred.
This Luo Tian Assembly instance was truly strange. Every time Su Xing entered, there were subtle changes.
However, the date always remained the same – the day the Luo Tian Assembly began…
“This Luo Tian Assembly instance must hold secrets unknown to me!”
Su Xing thought silently. What was the reason for the existence of an infinite loop instance?
What secrets did it contain?
Su Xing was eager to explore, but his purpose this time was not to investigate.
So, Su Xing bowed to Niu Ruli, and instead of immediately searching for Shennong Youtian, he asked Niu Ruli:
“Master, my cultivation has reached Divine Power Realm Great Perfection, and I wish to ask about the secrets of the Breaking Void Realm!”
This time, Niu Ruli didn’t ask Su Xing to search for Shennong Youtian first.
Instead, after hearing Su Xing’s words, Niu Ruli nodded with satisfaction, saying:
“Indeed, you are my good disciple. You might even get that Saint Son position!”
“Now, your body refinement cultivation has reached Divine Power Realm Great Perfection, only a thin line away from Breaking Void. Do you know what the Breaking Void Realm is?”
Su Xing nodded slightly after hearing this. He was no longer a novice newly entering the world of Cultivation, so he had heard a little about it.
He said:
“The Breaking Void Realm is where one achieves enlightenment through strength, breaking through the illusions!”
Niu Ruli nodded, saying:
“Correct, break through all laws with strength! This is the ability of our Body Refiners!”
“Then do you know why, compared to Divine Power Realm, the strength of Breaking Void Cultivators doesn’t have a terrifying increase, yet they can break through all laws with one force?”
Su Xing frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and suddenly realized something, blurting out:
“Because… Elemental Force?!”
Niu Ruli showed a very satisfied expression, saying:
“That’s right! It’s because of Elemental Force!”
“Elemental Force is the foundation of our Body Refiners. There are three stages, namely the Reinforcement Stage, the Entanglement Stage… and the final Emission Stage!”
After a pause, Niu Ruli said:
“The Reinforcement Stage is to strengthen one’s own strength through Elemental Force. The Entanglement Stage involves covering the surface with Elemental Force, forming high-intensity protection…”
“As for the final Emission Stage, it allows Elemental Force to leave the body and be used against enemies, and it can even be attached to weapons, greatly increasing their lethality!”
“It is because of the various uses of Elemental Force that we Body Refiners can go toe-to-toe with Qi Refiners!”
Su Xing felt enlightened upon hearing this.
Honestly, half of Su Xing’s current strength came from his Body Refinement cultivation.
After all, the ten million tons of force of the Divine Power Realm made him a monster in human form.
Elemental Force was also an important part of Su Xing’s strength. With the use of Elemental Force, his explosive power and super-strong defense gave him the confidence to look down upon those who were as strong as Martial Emperors.
“Emission Stage Elemental Force?”
Su Xing pondered.
He saw Niu Ruli continue, saying:
“You started practicing Elemental Force relatively early. Now, you have entered the second stage, the Entanglement Stage. You can go to the Luo Tian Sect’s Scripture Library to read the books on advancing and utilizing Elemental Force!”
Niu Ruli paused, and then said:
“Xiao Chuan, you have the best aptitude and understanding among my disciples. It is very likely that you will inherit my mantle in the future…”
“Since that’s the case, I won’t hide it from you. I have an Elemental Force divine ability here, as well as insights on how to reach the third stage. I’ll give them to you.”
With that, Niu Ruli pointed his finger at Su Xing’s forehead.
Su Xing felt a short piece of insight on cultivating Elemental Force and a divine ability… Body Protection罡气 (Gāngqì)!
“Hiss… Body Protection罡气, using Elemental Force to protect the body surface, Divine Power bestowed, impervious to all laws!”
Su Xing’s face showed a hint of ecstatic joy. This Body Protection罡气 was definitely a divine ability!
After receiving the Elemental Force divine ability and the insights on the third stage, Su Xing asked:
“Master, after mastering the third stage of Elemental Force, how do you break into the Breaking Void Realm?”
Niu Ruli sighed:
“It’s hard, hard, hard! Only by cultivating Elemental Force Emission to its peak, combined with the powerful physique of a Body Refiner, and then breaking through at the limit, can you achieve the Breaking Void Realm!”
“However, there are hundreds of Divine Power Realm Cultivators, yet only one or two reach Breaking Void!”
“One careless mistake, and it’s life or death. You need to be fully prepared before attempting it!”
“Moreover, Breaking Void Cultivators are also divided into different grades. The more dangerous the limit location, the greater the enhancement of the Body Refiner’s physique after entering the Breaking Void Realm!”
“This is akin to going against the heavens! It’s precisely because of this that our Body Refiners are so rare!”
Su Xing frowned slightly after hearing this. Niu Ruli kept saying it was difficult…
Even such a powerful cultivator said it was difficult… could the Breaking Void Realm really be so hard to break through?
So, Su Xing asked:
“Master, what do you mean by limit location?”
Niu Ruli explained:
“There are many limit locations, such as the seabed ten thousand li deep, where immense pressure bears down on you. If you can withstand it for several days, you might achieve Breaking Void!”
“Or, there is the thunder tribulation. The first thunder of spring on the day of awakening, it has boundless power, capable of severing all illusions. If you can endure nine thunderbolts, you can temper your body with the power of lightning. Not only can you achieve Breaking Void, but you might also take this opportunity to reshape your body and gain a precious understanding of lightning power!”
Niu Ruli spoke slowly.
Su Xing thought about it, and he roughly understood what Niu Ruli meant.
Body Refiners went against the heavens, focusing on honing their physical body and strengthening their vitality and blood energy.
To break through the limits of Body Refinement, they needed to survive in extremely harsh environments.
Whether it was the ten thousand li deep seabed or the nine thunders, it was all about pushing one’s own limits.
Crossing that line meant Breaking Void, failing meant death!
Therefore, one could choose their own perilous location. The more dangerous, the greater the improvement!
After clarifying the secrets of the Breaking Void Realm, Su Xing, suppressing his excitement, bowed to Niu Ruli.
“Thank you, Master!”
Niu Ruli looked tired and only nodded slightly.
“Good disciple, go find your Shennong Master Uncle!”
Su Xing excused himself and left the hall. His joy was evident.
“This Luo Tian Sect instance is truly a treasure trove!”
“I learned a divine ability so easily? Hiss, even though it still needs to be cultivated… but just this one divine ability, if I hadn’t received knowledge transfer, I would have probably spent several days learning it myself!”
“And these insights on the third stage of Elemental Force are also incredibly valuable!”
“Breaking Void, finally a clue… but no rush on Breaking Void, I need to enter the third stage of Elemental Force first!”
Su Xing grinned. He suddenly found Niu Ruli a bit cute.
Knowledge transfer placed a burden on a Cultivator’s divine consciousness, so it was rarely used. Su Xing was lucky to have received knowledge transfer a few times.
With a light step, Su Xing walked towards the back mountain.
After sending his Shennong Master Uncle to the Luo Tian Assembly, Su Xing came to the familiar Scripture Library and began studying the knowledge on advancing Elemental Force.
Although Grand Elder Niu Ruli had given him a divine ability and insights on Elemental Force Emission, Su Xing still needed to learn this knowledge on advancing Elemental Force.
Activating the “Great Wisdom” state’s bonus, Su Xing stayed in the Scripture Library for over twenty hours.
When the immersive simulation time ended, Su Xing’s consciousness returned to the real world.
Back in the real world, the corners of Su Xing’s mouth couldn’t stop rising.
“This immersive simulation was a huge win!”
“Not only did I learn the insights on the third stage of Elemental Force, but I also got a divine ability for free!”
Joy filled Su Xing, and even his expression when looking at the simulation panel was filled with a smile.
[After obtaining the secrets of the Breaking Void Realm from the Luo Tian Assembly instance, you decide to prioritize your Elemental Force cultivation.]
[But before that, you decide to join the Descent Sect to obtain elixirs.]
[You spend several days in Shuangqing City, luring out Elder Dog.]
[After some under-the-table dealings, you successfully join the Descent Sect.]
[You don’t forget to be brotherly with Elder Dog on the surface, but in reality, you have already contacted Luo Shuying and gained her trust.]
[With Luo Shuying’s help, you obtain many precious spiritual herbs.]
[So, in the following days, you steadily work on your own affairs.]
[You plant 500 Spirit Gathering Flower seeds in your Spirit Field Paradise. Due to the excessive number of seeds, you must spend four hours every day tending to the Spirit Field, watering and using spirit energy to ripen the plants.]
[After that, you spend four hours cultivating, diligently increasing your Qi Refinement cultivation.]
[The remaining four hours are spent refining elixirs, preparing to join the Great Summer Army in the future.]
[You have perfectly planned out every hour of the day, leaving no time for rest!]
Su Xing saw this and couldn’t help but twitch his lips, muttering:
“Damn, that last line… is that a吐槽 (tǔ cáo) from the simulator?”
“But speaking of which, they have a liver growing inside them, while I have a person growing on my liver?”
Su Xing shook his head slightly. If he wasn’t diligent in the simulator… wouldn’t he have to be even more diligent in reality?
After silently criticizing, Su Xing looked at the simulation panel.
[In the third year, the first batch of Spirit Gathering Flowers you planted mature. You harvest 500 Spirit Gathering Flowers and gain 800 new Spirit Gathering Flower seeds.]
[You plant the new batch of Spirit Gathering Flower seeds and prepare to harvest them in two years.]
[In the same year, you believe the time is ripe and decide to betray the Descent Sect.]
[You then flee to the Great Summer Army with Luo Shuying, while Elder Dog is caught in the crossfire and also pursued by the Descent Sect.]
[In the fourth year, you realize that 12 hours a day is not enough, so you decide to temporarily suspend your cultivation and focus on refining elixirs and planting Spirit Gathering Flowers.]
[You spend six hours cultivating Spirit Gathering Flowers and six hours refining elixirs each day.]
[In the fifth year, you harvest 800 mature Spirit Gathering Flowers and 1,000 seeds.]
[You begin a new round of planting.]
[As the number of Spirit Gathering Flowers in the Spirit Field Paradise increases, the Spirit Field Paradise becomes increasingly rich in spirit energy, and your cultivation becomes much more efficient!]
[In the same year, you finally finish refining the more than 200,000 elixirs needed by the Great Summer Country. Due to good fortune, over one-third of your elixirs are top-grade.]
[The Great Summer Country, thanks to you, gains 80,000 Grandmaster-Level professionals, 800 Heavenly King Level, and 80 Martial Emperors.]
[In the sixth year, you rarely refine elixirs anymore, devoting most of your remaining time to cultivation.]
[Every day, besides planting Spirit Gathering Herbs, you spend the rest of your time cultivating the Eternal Spring Technique, your cultivation progressing rapidly.]
[In the seventh year, the 1,000 Spirit Gathering Herbs you planted finally mature, and you also obtain 1,500 immature seeds.]
[You feel that the Spirit Field Paradise is nearing saturation with Spirit Gathering Herbs, so you stop planting them and begin to focus entirely on cultivation.]
[As over 3,000 Spirit Gathering Herbs slowly release their spirit energy, the Spirit Field Paradise undergoes a significant transformation.]
[The thick spirit energy almost condenses into liquid in the air. With every breath you take, you feel a surge of abundant spirit energy filling you, revitalizing you.]
[At the same time, the growth rate of spiritual plants drastically increases. Plants that originally took five years to mature now only require three years!]
[The Spiritual Chickens in the Spirit Field Paradise also become stronger and their feathers become smoother. Even the Spirit Worms grow larger overnight, slowly evolving towards becoming Earth Dragons.]
[You realize that your Spirit Field Paradise has evolved into a Heavenly Cave.]
[In the eighth year, you begin to cultivate systematically.]
[You spend eight hours a day cultivating the Eternal Spring Technique, improving your Qi Refinement cultivation.]
[The remaining four hours are spent cultivating Elemental Force, hoping to soon advance from the Entanglement Stage to the Emission Stage!]
[In the ninth year, Elemental Force cultivation is more difficult than you imagined.]
[According to Niu Ruli’s insights, to reach the Emission Stage, you must first reach the level of full body entanglement for your Elemental Force!]
[This means coating your body surface with a layer of invisible Elemental Force armor. The strength of this armor is directly proportional to the strength of your Elemental Force.]
[Your Elemental Force has entered the second stage, Entanglement, but it can only cover a limited number of vital points. To achieve full body coverage, your Elemental Force strength is far from enough.]
[Although your Elemental Force cultivation is progressing slowly, this year, your Qi Refinement cultivation successfully breaks through to Divine Transformation Realm二重 (èrlíng)!]
[In the tenth year, you continue to cultivate daily. Your Body Refinement cultivation grows stronger, but your Elemental Force progress remains slow…]
Su Xing sighed softly.
He naturally knew that Elemental Force cultivation was difficult. Cultivating both Elemental Force and improving cultivation would inevitably affect the advancement of his Qi Refinement cultivation.
But Su Xing had no choice, as Elemental Force was crucial for breaking through to the Breaking Void Realm.
What if Su Xing triggered a chance enlightenment… and entered the third stage of Elemental Force? That would truly be a huge win!
Therefore, Su Xing was simply taking a gamble.
Most of his time was still spent on improving his Qi Refinement cultivation.
Thinking this, Su Xing looked at the simulation panel.
[As you cultivate day and night, two years pass. You haven’t chosen to join the Demon-Suppressing Instance.]
[Since you are cultivating within the Heavenly Cave Paradise, joining the Demon-Suppressing Instance wouldn’t make much difference.]
[In the thirteenth year, cultivating in the Heavenly Cave Paradise truly leads to rapid progress. Your cultivation speed is twice as fast as before, your Qi Refinement cultivation is advancing rapidly, and you are approaching Divine Transformation Realm三重 (sān líng)!]
[The only pity is that your mastery of Elemental Force is progressing slowly, still stuck in the Entanglement Stage. However, as you cultivate, the body coverage of your Elemental Force increases.]
[In the fourteenth year, a year of monotonous cultivation, you are unable to break through to Divine Transformation Realm三重…]
[In the fifteenth year, on a beautiful morning, you have a premonition and effortlessly break through to Divine Transformation Realm三重!]
[In the sixteenth year, you temporarily abandon Elemental Force cultivation and make a crucial decision…]
[You want to explore the End of Dharma Era instance!]
[The End of Dharma Era instance is a Cultivation-themed instance that you learned about a long time ago. According to official intelligence, this instance seems to be at the end of the Cultivation world. Even among ten thousand people, it is difficult to find one Cultivator.]
[You have long wanted to explore this instance, but due to insufficient strength, you, always cautious, decided to play it safe.]
[Later, you learned that Elder Dog came from this instance, making you even more cautious.]
[But now, your cultivation has reached Divine Power Realm Great Perfection, and you are confident in your ability to explore this instance…]
[You follow the coordinates you remember and arrive at an instance hub outside the Kyoto City. After showing your identity, you successfully enter the End of Dharma Era instance!]
(PS: Details of this instance can be found in Chapter 36)
