While Others are Leveling Up, I Alone Will Cultivate Until Mahayana Before Making My Move 164

Su Xing nodded slightly and murmured, “Indeed, two million jin of spirit rice, on average, can provide for 200,000 to 300,000 college students each year… This number is okay, but if there’s more, I’m afraid the Taro Trading Company won’t be able to withstand the conflict of interests behind it…”

Su Xing calculated a bit.

Providing two million jin of spirit rice each year was just less than one-tenth of his total output.

He could store the remaining spirit rice, and trade it when he needed it later.

One million jin of spirit rice earned him the right to mine two mine area instances.

Two million jin of spirit rice should increase the number of mine area instance mining rights to four!

This meant that the simulated energy he produced each week would increase by about 30 million!

If you calculate it this way, perhaps it won’t be long before Su Xing’s stable weekly harvest of simulated energy will reach 60 million!

“Alas, this is the best I can do for now… As long as I don’t expose myself and attract danger, 60 million energy per week is pretty good!” Su Xing murmured.

For Su Xing at this stage, 60 million energy per week, plus the occasional windfall from the Bai family, was more than enough!

But if Su Xing’s cultivation base were to increase further… he might not be able to keep up.

“Sigh, hopefully, after I reach the Void Shattering Realm, the energy required for each small realm won’t be as outrageous as 100 million.” Su Xing prayed silently.

Otherwise, based on 100 million, just to improve his cultivation base by one small realm, he would need to save up for two weeks of energy…

His eyes fell on the simulation panel.

*You discussed with Jin Congxue and then gave her one million jin of spirit rice.*

*To figure out if this trade would put you in danger, you stayed at the school as always and didn’t rush to join the Descent Sect.*

*Every day, besides cultivating, you were farming in the Spirit Field Paradise.*

*Occasionally returning to the real world, you would release your Divine Sense to see if anyone was monitoring you.*

*You also kept in touch with Jin Congxue and asked if anything unusual had happened. But Jin Congxue said there were no anomalies.*

*In this way, one year passed, and the Great Summer military didn’t contact you, Jin Congxue’s side remained unchanged.*

*The difference was that all the college student professionals received a bonus of spirit rice in their annual allowance. Outstanding students could receive 10 jin to 30 jin of spirit rice each year.*

*You didn’t encounter any danger within the year. You were relieved.*

*But for the sake of caution, you decided to stay at the school for another year to see what the consequences of trading spirit rice with the Great Summer military would be.*

*In the second year, you continued to consume 300 drops of spiritual liquid for cultivation every day. Your cultivation base steadily improved.*

*According to your calculations, consuming 300 drops of spiritual liquid each day for 25 years would be enough to finish the spiritual liquid and achieve the highest efficiency of cultivation advancement.*

*In addition to cultivation, you also began to strengthen your control over elemental force every day. Occasionally, when you felt like it, you would learn some swordsmanship.*

*Nothing happened this year, you were safe as always, and no one was tracking or assassinating you within your Divine Sense range.*

*In the third year, you finally felt safe and prepared to join the Descent Sect!*

Su Xing let out a long sigh of relief and couldn’t help but smile.

“Great, it seems that this trade didn’t have any risks!”

Compared to gaining four more Strange Metal mining areas, Su Xing cared more about his own safety.

After all, only by living safely could he have a better future.

“At least, for the next two years, there won’t be any danger if I trade two million jin of spirit rice annually…”

Su Xing felt a little relaxed and continued, “Hehe, as for after two years… Damn, I went from having nothing to reaching the Divine Transformation Realm in less than a year!”

“Two years later, I’ll probably be an Immortal already? Why would I need to worry about these things?”

This was Su Xing’s confidence in himself.

Because according to his current growth rate, it wouldn’t take two years, perhaps even less time.

He would be able to break through that barrier and achieve the status of an Immortal. By then, the danger brought by these mere spirit rice would be nothing to him.

“Just because you’re so beautiful~ ohoh~”

Su Xing, in a good mood, hummed a retro tune and looked at the simulation panel.

*You went to Shuangqing City in Southwestern Province and found Elder Dog without much effort.*

*Then you used the Life-Prolonging Pill to exchange for a batch of medicinal herbs and the chance to join the Descent Sect.*

*Because of your extraordinary strength, you were granted Elder status upon entering the Descent Sect.*

*After that, you followed the same pattern and successfully contacted Luo Shuying, gaining her trust.*

*For the next year, you immersed yourself in cultivation and spent some time refining pills.*

*In one year, you refined 50,000 pills, and your cultivation and control over elemental force improved steadily.*

*In the fourth year, you continued to hide in the Descent Sect doing your own thing. Besides refining pills, you also cooperated with Luo Shuying in embezzling a large amount of spirit herbs from the Descent Sect.*

*In the same year, your cultivation base made a small breakthrough, getting closer and closer to the eighth level of the Divine Transformation Realm.*

*In the fifth year, you had taken away most of the Descent Sect’s spirit herbs, and you felt that the time was ripe to betray the Descent Sect.*

*So, you openly invited Elder Dog to a meal and then betrayed the Descent Sect with Luo Shuying.*

*You and Luo Shuying went to the Great Summer military and were protected by the Great Summer military.*

*And Elder Dog was predictably hunted down.*

*This year, you produced over 100,000 pills. Because of the high quality rate of the pills, you added over 30,000 Grandmaster-Level professionals and hundreds of Heavenly King-Level strongmen to the Great Summer country.*

*In the sixth year, after arriving in the Capital City, your life continued its usual routine.*

*You consumed 300 drops of spiritual liquid each day and practiced the Thousand Flames Art for six hours.*

*The rest of the time, you spent cultivating elemental force and refining pills.*

*This year, you refined another 50,000 pills, adding nearly 20,000 Grandmaster-Level strongmen to the Great Summer country.*

*In the seventh year, you used up all the medicinal herbs you brought from the Descent Sect and added another batch of strongmen to the Great Summer country.*

*In the same year, with the help of spiritual liquid and an Earth Rank Cultivation Technique, your cultivation base finally broke through!*

*You became a Divine Transformation Realm Eighth-Level Cultivator!*

Su Xing nodded slightly and murmured, “Refining pills while cultivating elemental force, and I managed to break through to the Divine Transformation Realm in seven years, the effects of spiritual liquid are indeed powerful!”

Su Xing was very satisfied with this.

At this pace, if he set aside time for refining pills, his cultivation speed would only increase.

Breaking through to the Divine Transformation Realm Peak in this simulation wouldn’t be a dream!

*In the eighth year, you only spent half an hour each day refining pills to maintain your skill.*

*The rest of the time, you devoted yourself to cultivation.*

*As time went on, your mastery of elemental force became more and more proficient. You could feel that you were not far from reaching the release-level elemental force.*

*In the ninth year, you went to the Immortal Martial Era instance while cultivating.*

*You found Elder Dog there, as expected.*

*Then you spent half a month chasing him to death and erased his Divine Soul.*

*In the tenth year, you returned to the real world and continued your cultivation.*

*The Mind-Clearing Pill combined with spiritual liquid made your cultivation progress rapidly, improving every day.*

*You didn’t find the monotonous cultivation life boring, but rather enjoyed yourself every day.*

*Two more years passed in the blink of an eye.*

*In the twelfth year, your mastery of elemental force became more proficient. The entwined-level elemental force could not only cover your entire body but also vaguely had the tendency to detach from your body.*

*You knew in your heart that you were not far from the third stage of elemental force, the release-level!*

*In the thirteenth year, on a sunny morning, you were cultivating elemental force as usual.*

*Suddenly, you felt a connection, and the elemental force in your body began to vibrate slightly.*

*Thus, your mastery of elemental force naturally reached the third stage, the release-level!*

*After reaching the release-level elemental force, you were overjoyed and couldn’t wait to try it out.*

*According to Ghost Granny, elemental force can nourish spiritual swords. Since you’re a sword cultivator, you can make this sword into your natal treasure.*

*But your mastery of elemental force release was not yet proficient. You didn’t dare to nourish the spiritual sword rashly, but instead continued to enhance your mastery of elemental force!*

Su Xing couldn’t help but feel a little happy when he saw this.

“Whew, although I chose the Thousand Flames Art in the last simulation to ensure that I absolutely break through to the Divine Transformation Realm Peak, the third stage of elemental force is still very tempting!”

“No matter what, when this simulation ends, I must bring the elemental force insights out!”

“I want to see just how powerful this release-level elemental force is?”

Su Xing couldn’t wait for the strength boost that was about to come.

He looked at the simulation panel.

*In the fourteenth year, you cultivated day and night, taking your Qi Refining cultivation base a step further, leaving only a step away from the ninth level of the Divine Transformation Realm!*

*At the same time, after your elemental force reached the release-level, you still practiced controlling your elemental force every day. Your elemental force became increasingly thick.*

*In the fifteenth year, Heaven rewarded those who work hard. Your cultivation finally broke through.*

*Congratulations! You became a Divine Transformation Realm Ninth-Level Cultivator!*

Su Xing let out a long sigh of relief when he saw this.

In the fifteenth year, Su Xing had reached the ninth level of the Divine Transformation Realm. With ten years left, the Divine Transformation Realm Peak was basically guaranteed!

“Divine Transformation Realm Peak, plus Divine Power Realm Peak, combined with sword intent and release-level elemental force…”

“At this level of strength, I should truly be worthy of the title of number one under legend, right?!”

Su Xing couldn’t help but shake his head and hum a little tune.

Su Xing believed that not only in the small Blue Star, but even in the Cultivation World, under the Void Shattering and Returning Void Realms, Su Xing’s current strength should be among the top.

He looked at the simulation panel.

*The breakthrough in cultivation didn’t make you relax. You stayed humble and calm, striving towards your ultimate goal of reaching the Divine Transformation Realm Peak!*

*In the seventeenth year, even with the help of the Great Summer military, Luo Shuying’s home world was still conquered by the alien race.*

*Thousands of Spirit Race people escaped to the Demon-Suppressing Pass and joined the Demon-Suppressing Pass battlefield.*

*You specifically went to the Demon-Suppressing Pass battlefield to observe, and found that after the Spirit Race world was conquered, the number of demonic beasts in the Demon-Suppressing Pass increased significantly.*

“Hmm?”

Su Xing raised an eyebrow when he saw this. This was news that he hadn’t paid attention to before.

From Luo Shuying’s situation, her home world’s coordinates should be close to Blue Star and have a dedicated instance teleportation point.

That’s why Luo Shuying and the Spirit Race people could come to Blue Star.

But after the Spirit Race was destroyed, the pressure on the Demon-Suppressing Pass increased, and the number of demonic beasts increased.

This meant that after the alien race conquered other worlds, their power might be sent to invade the following worlds.

“Then… according to this, when the twenty-five-year deadline arrives, hundreds of legendary demonic beasts come to the Demon-Suppressing Pass…”

“Does this mean that some powerful world was conquered by the demonic beasts, and more demonic beasts were free to invade other worlds, which then put this pressure on Blue Star?”

Su Xing thought deeply.

According to this pattern, the probability was quite high!

“If so, maybe that world with strong combat power is not far from Blue Star, so the demonic beasts chose to attack the Demon-Suppressing Pass on Blue Star nearby!”

“But if that world can hold out longer, doesn’t that mean it can delay the time when the Demon-Suppressing Pass is conquered?!”

At this thought, Su Xing’s eyes lit up.

You know, the most precious resource to Su Xing is time.

If he could extend the time it takes for the Demon-Suppressing Pass to be conquered by five years, then Su Xing could cultivate for five more years in each simulation!

One year is 200 years of time, which is equivalent to 15 extra simulations out of thin air!

How could Su Xing not be tempted by this?

“Perhaps… I can investigate this in the future. At the crucial time point of the twenty-third to twenty-fifth year, what worlds have been conquered?”

Su Xing silently noted this point in his heart, looking at the simulation panel.

*The fall of her home made Luo Shuying smile less.*

*You didn’t forget to care for Luo Shuying during your cultivation, and after a heartfelt conversation, Luo Shuying seemed more cheerful.*

*In the same year, your mastery of elemental force increased slightly. You could already flexibly control the range of elemental force release.*

*Two more years of hard cultivation followed.*

*In the twentieth year, breaking through from the ninth level of the Divine Transformation Realm to the peak was harder than you thought.*

*Even though you were taking spiritual liquid every day, and the cultivation speed of the Cultivation Technique you were practicing was faster, you still felt that you were a long way from the peak.*

*But you didn’t give up. You persisted in inhaling and exhaling spiritual energy every day, improving your cultivation.*

*In the twenty-first year, your mastery of elemental force became more proficient. You could already wrap the elemental force around the Ink Ice Sword in a rudimentary way.*

*You could feel that the Ink Ice Sword, under the enhancement of elemental force, had significantly improved in both hardness and destructiveness.*

*In the twenty-second year, your hard work finally paid off. With a breakthrough after a period of accumulation, your cultivation advanced significantly.*

*You could feel that you were not far from the Divine Transformation Realm Peak.*

*In the twenty-third year, one day, as you were cultivating elemental force as usual, you suddenly felt a connection. Your perception of elemental force became clearer.*

*Time slowed down in your eyes, and every subtle change of elemental force was so clear.*

*You knew that you had entered a state of enlightenment again. So, you suppressed your excitement and seized the opportunity to practice elemental force repeatedly.*

*With the blessing of the enlightened state, you were single-minded and focused, as if the entire world was only elemental force.*

*In this way, your mastery of elemental force improved rapidly.*

*Elemental force, which was only able to extend three centimeters from your body, quickly increased to ten centimeters, then to thirty centimeters.*

*Although the increase was only a tiny bit, it was an inch stronger for Body Refinement Cultivators.*

*Elemental force release reaching thirty centimeters undoubtedly expanded your attack range by more than double.*

*When the enemy couldn’t even reach you, your elemental force could already hurt them.*

*In your enlightenment, you felt the essence of elemental force, discovering that it was not only the strongest spear and shield, but also the most flexible power.*

*You controlled the elemental force to slowly climb inch by inch, eventually enveloping the entire Ink Ice Sword.*

*Elemental force could not only completely cover your body but also cover the weapon in your hand!*

*You wanted to further explore the wonderful uses of elemental force, trying to see how to nourish the spiritual sword in your hand with elemental force.*

*But as you were about to try, that magical state quickly dissipated.*

*You, who could see through everything in the world, instantly became an ordinary mortal.*

*This left you with an unease that couldn’t be shaken off!*

*Your enlightenment state ended!*

*After the enlightenment ended, you glanced at the time and found that this enlightenment only lasted two days.*

*But those two days of enlightenment made your mastery of elemental force directly grow from release-level入门 to release-level小成!*

*Your mastery of elemental force became more exquisite, able to control it to the inch. At the same time, the quality and total amount of your elemental force were rapidly increasing!*

Su Xing couldn’t hide his joy at seeing this long passage of simulated text.

“I actually triggered a chance enlightenment!”

“From just reaching release-level elemental force, it directly grew to the small completion level!”

Su Xing’s tone was a little excited. His initial expectation was to just reach the release-level入门.

But unexpectedly, this simulation gave Su Xing a big surprise. Release-level小成 was stronger than the入门 level by more than a bit!

The most important thing was that Su Xing’s elemental force would become more substantial, which meant that Su Xing could use elemental force to fight continuously.

At least it wouldn’t be like before, where the elemental force armor would not last after a half-hour battle.

“Tsk tsk, this small completion level elemental force, it should last at least an hour for the elemental force armor to fight at full strength, right?”

Su Xing muttered, thinking about whether he could defeat that living dead puppet with this little boost.

But after thinking for a moment, Su Xing shook his head slightly.

“Just having more stamina is no use… Can my stamina alone match the puppet’s?”

“It must have enough destructive power to directly kill the puppet with a powerful force!”

Su Xing felt that he had a better chance of defeating the puppet after reaching the Void Shattering Realm.

“We are the people, we’re happy today~”

Su Xing once again hummed an off-key tune, feeling happy, and looked at the simulation panel.

*After your elemental force broke through to the third stage小成, you were in a good mood. After getting familiar with the new power, you continued to cultivate hard.*

*For the entire following year, you spent your time in hard cultivation.*

*In the twenty-fourth year, one night, while you were sitting cross-legged in meditation, you looked up at the stars overhead. You were amazed at the vastness of the universe and the smallness of humanity.*

*In this sudden realization, your body underwent subtle changes.*

*Like a hundred streams converging into a river, the flow of spiritual energy in your body was unprecedentedly smooth.*

*You felt something in your heart, and without caring about saving it, you immediately took down a whole bottle of spiritual liquid.*

*With the infusion of 10,000 drops of spiritual liquid, the total amount of spiritual energy in your body reached an unprecedented height.*

*And you took this opportunity to try to break through to the Divine Transformation Realm Peak!*
