    Chapter 26: Continuous Good Luck, The Secret to Wealth!

    Su Xing’s eyes lit up. He hadn’t expected that a green-quality luck talent would have such a significant impact.

    Previously, he had to spend at least a month finding promising chickens. Now, he achieved it in just a week.

    “Looks like this ‘Continuous Good Luck’ talent is truly extraordinary… Perhaps I can bring it out from the simulator.”

    Su Xing pondered, continuing to read the simulation.

    [You isolated the seven or eight chickens and raised them separately. You fed them a fixed amount of Spirit Rice every day. After a while, their feathers became more lustrous.]

    [Aside from feeding the Spiritual Chickens and tending to the Spirit Valley on a regular schedule, you spent most of your time studying the Fire Control Alchemy Technique.]

    [You selected some of the spirit seeds left behind by Qingyunzi to plant and purchased some high-quality ginseng from the market to plant in the Spirit Field.]

    [A week later, Jin Congxue came to the capital city to find you. You gave her the Spirit Rice you had prepared earlier and treated her to a meal.]

    [After bidding farewell to Jin Congxue, you continued to immerse yourself in learning the Fire Control Alchemy Technique. Since you already possessed the Fire Control Formula, you directly attempted to refine pills.]

    [You took out some Spirit Rice and mixed it with three or four types of herbs, placing them in the alchemy furnace according to the proportions stated in the pill formula.]

    [You carefully controlled the temperature of the Fire Control Technique, but unsurprisingly, due to your lack of skill, the alchemy attempt failed.]

    [You didn’t give up and continued to focus on refining pills.]

    [Soon, half a year passed. During this time, besides regularly feeding Wang Qingxuan ‘chicken soup for the soul,’ you spent most of your time learning how to refine the Qi-Replenishing Pill.]

    [Finally, after tireless effort, you successfully refined your first batch of Qi-Replenishing Pills.]

    [Half a year later, you mastered all the steps for refining the Qi-Replenishing Pill. The proportions of herbs, heat control, and alchemy techniques were all nearly perfect.]

    [Now, you can refine eight to nine pills per batch. Due to your good luck, almost every two or three batches of Qi-Replenishing Pills would yield a top-grade pill.]

    Su Xing’s face lit up upon reading this. In the previous simulation, mastering the Fire Control Formula alone took eight years.

    But in this simulation, because he had the Fire Control Formula beforehand, he successfully learned to refine the Qi-Replenishing Pill in just one year. The efficiency was drastically increased!

    Su Xing eagerly continued reading.

    [You spent a week refining fifty finished Qi-Replenishing Pills and then sought out Jin Congxue to sell them.]

    [Jin Congxue called upon a master appraiser from the Jin Family Trading House to examine your Qi-Replenishing Pills. The appraiser stated that he had never seen such a pill before, but he recognized a similar item called “Military Ration Pills” from a copy he had encountered.]

    [The appraiser said that Military Ration Pills were a type of pill that provided energy to the human body. After consuming one, the individual would feel energetic and not hungry for three days. However, your Qi-Replenishing Pill could maintain this state for a month, significantly surpassing the effect of Military Ration Pills.]

    [Military Ration Pills were sold for about 3,000 yuan each. Therefore, the appraiser believed your Qi-Replenishing Pills could sell for around 100,000 yuan each.]

    Su Xing furrowed his brows slightly. The price of a Qi-Replenishing Pill was only 100,000 yuan?

    It was lower than he expected.

    But then Su Xing realized that because this world’s copies yielded various space items like storage rings, every cultivator could carry a large amount of food.

    The biggest advantage of the Qi-Replenishing Pill was its portability, followed by saving time on eating. So, it could be used in some special situations.

    [The appraiser stated that if you could consistently supply these pills, he would be willing to represent the Jin Family Trading House and purchase them for 80,000 yuan each.]

    [Jin Congxue was somewhat unhappy when she heard this. She said that the Qi-Replenishing Pills were worth 100,000 yuan each, and she would take all you had. The appraiser frowned slightly but didn’t object.]

    Su Xing’s heart warmed again. 100,000 yuan was the selling price. If Jin Congxue was buying them from him at this price, she essentially had no profit margin. She was doing it entirely to help him.

    [You didn’t refuse Jin Congxue’s kindness. You believed the Qi-Replenishing Pill was truly worth 100,000 yuan. You sold all fifty pills to Jin Congxue but kept five top-grade pills for yourself as a backup.]

    [You used all the money you earned to buy materials for refining the Beauty Pill. Since you didn’t have any Spirit Ginseng, you could only use ordinary ginseng instead.]

    [One day, Wang Qingxuan came to you and said she might have to leave. She was going to join a mysterious organization.]

    [You asked her if it was the Descent Sect. She was surprised that you knew about this sect but nodded in confirmation.]

    [You coaxed her, saying that the Descent Sect was no good. But Wang Qingxuan could infiltrate the Descent Sect as your undercover agent. At the same time, you asked her to help you find the latter half of the Eternal Spring Technique.]

    [Although Wang Qingxuan was puzzled by your request, she loved you deeply and agreed to your plea.]

    [That night, you were very passionate. The next day, she withdrew from the Capital City Academy.]

    Su Xing breathed a sigh of relief. Based on the results of the previous simulation, the Descent Sect was definitely a behemoth, even collaborating with alien races to destroy humanity. Therefore, he didn’t really want to have anything to do with them.

    But the problem was that the latter half of the Eternal Spring Technique was still in the hands of the Descent Sect. He had to figure out a way to learn about them.

    Su Xing continued to simulate.

    [After parting ways with Wang Qingxuan, you began to immerse yourself in researching the Beauty Pill.]

    [In the second year of the simulation, since you didn’t have Spirit Ginseng and had to use ordinary ginseng instead, the difficulty of refining the Beauty Pill increased. You spent an entire year and still couldn’t refine it successfully.]

    [In the third year, after countless attempts, you finally refined your first batch of substandard Beauty Pills. You took one and felt your skin become smoother. However, your skill in refining the Beauty Pill was still quite low, and you could only successfully make one or two pills per batch.]

    [Moreover, as you consumed large quantities of herbs refining the Beauty Pill, your savings dwindled. With no other choice, you spent another month refining 300 Qi-Replenishing Pills and sold them to Jin Congxue.]

    [With the money you earned, you continued to focus on refining pills.]

    [In the fourth year, after thousands of practices, you mastered the refinement of the simple version of the Beauty Pill. You had reached a near-perfect level of mastery with it.]

    [You spent a week refining fifty simple Beauty Pills and brought them to Jin Congxue to sell.]

    [Jin Congxue took one and immediately felt her skin become smoother. Even the wrinkles around her eyes gradually faded.]

    [Jin Congxue was overjoyed and asked how long this youthful state would last. You told her about a month or so.]

    [Jin Congxue immediately expressed her desire to purchase all fifty of your simple Beauty Pills at 1 million yuan each!]

    [You agreed and sold the simple Beauty Pills to Jin Congxue, earning 50 million yuan.]

    Su Xing was filled with emotion after reading this. The cost of refining a batch of Beauty Pills wasn’t even as high as refining a batch of Qi-Replenishing Pills, especially since the Qi-Replenishing Pill required Spirit Rice.

    But the allure of the Beauty Pill for women was simply too great!

    Just by taking one pill, you could regain a month of youth. This was far superior to any top-tier cosmetics or health products.

    Wealthy women would definitely be willing to spend 1 million yuan to buy a month of youth.

    Seeing this, a slight smile appeared on Su Xing’s lips:

    “Now I have a way to pay for the energy expenditure for the next simulation.”
