Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation! - Chapter 168
Chapter 168 Chapter 139 The Pawn of the Descending Sect, Black Dragon Commerce (5k big chapter)_2
Having converted the week’s goods into simulation energy, Su Xing’s energy surged once again, reaching over thirty million!
Thirty million, seemingly a large amount, was actually insufficient for Su Xing’s needs.
“Sigh, it’s simply not enough, I just can’t spend it all!”
“These thirty million energy points are just enough for me to advance from the fourth to the seventh level of the Divine Strength Realm… Now I can barely afford the energy required to upgrade my realm!”
Su Xing sighed, his determination to earn money growing stronger.
On June 3rd of the New Era 2024, Su Xing began a new round of simulation.
“Start simulation!”
[Ding! This simulation consumes 3,900 points of energy, leaving a balance of 30.33 million energy points, with unlimited simulation attempts remaining.]
[Simulation begins!]
[Extracting a green talent costs 1,000 energy points, a blue talent costs 10,000 energy points, and a purple talent costs 100,000 energy points. Do you want to extract?]
“Extract the purple talent!”
Su Xing silently commanded.
[Congratulations, you have obtained the purple talent: Descendant of Shennong!]
“Descendant of Shennong? That name sounds pretty awesome! What kind of talent is it?”
Su Xing’s heart stirred, and he looked toward the simulation panel.
[Descendant of Shennong]: Purple Talent, your affinity with any plant is greatly enhanced, enabling you to easily plant and hasten the maturation of Spirit Plants. The time required for Spirit Plants to reach maturity is significantly reduced, and, at the same time, your resistance to poisons is greatly increased. PS: Ever since Shennong died tasting hundreds of herbs, his descendants have significantly increased resistance to deadly poisons.
Upon seeing the talent of Descendant of Shennong, Su Xing’s eyes immediately lit up.
“Damn, this is definitely an upgraded version of the plant affinity talent! With this talent, cultivating Spirit Plants will become even simpler!”
“And it even comes with a bonus of poison resistance, truly a god-level farming talent!”
Su Xing was extremely eager about this talent and turned his gaze toward the simulation panel.
[Inside the Spirit Field Blessed Land, you realize that you are in a simulation.]
[You begin to tamper with the Spirit Plants in the Spirit Field and, sure enough, the Shennong talent proves to be much stronger than the previous plant affinity.]
[You casually plant a seed, which you quickly hasten to maturity; within just a week, it starts to sprout roots and germinate, more than twice as fast as before!]
[Your wood attribute Spiritual Power has an even stronger effect on hastening the growth of plants, and the Spirit Grains in your field become plumper and more abundant.]
[Somewhat surprised, you plant thirty seeds of the Gathering Spirit Flower, and these begin to grow robustly!]
[You start to find time to cultivate the wasteland, and within just a week, you have planted another ninety mu of Spirit Grains, bringing the total in your field to a hundred mu!]
[A week later, Jin Congxue brings you millennium ginseng and other herbs she found. Although in small quantities, they are enough for you to refine several Life Extension Pills.]
[During this time, Wang Qingxuan seemed to have lost a lot of weight. No longer washing her face with tears, she still often appeared dazed, a complete change from before.]
[Whether for Wang Qingxuan’s sake or to investigate the relationship between the Black Dragon Commerce Guild and the Descending Sect, you decide to visit the Black Dragon Guild.]
Su Xing nodded slightly at this and murmured:
“Indeed, the effect of the Descendant of Shennong talent is astonishing. It seems that this simulation should yield a large batch of Gathering Spirit Flowers!”
“As for the Black Dragon Commerce Guild, it’s definitely worth investigating…”
Thinking thus, Su Xing’s eyes moved back to the simulation panel.
[One day, after taking your own refined top-quality Disguise Pill and Breath Concealment Pill, confirming you wouldn’t be detected, you sneak into the Black Dragon Guild.]
[Through your Divine Sense, you perceive that there is no shortage of powerful individuals in the Black Dragon Guild; there are several Heavenly King Level experts, as well as numerous Masters and Grandmaster Level practitioners.]
[The rumored Martial Emperor does not seem to be present in the guild, and with your abilities, you easily infiltrate the innermost part of the Black Dragon Guild.]
[This appears to be an ordinary courtyard, just like any common quadrangle, but you feel more and more that there is something abnormal here.]
[Thus, you launch your Divine Sense, carefully searching every corner here, hoping to find some clues.]
[The whole courtyard seems normal at first glance, until your Divine Sense probes a hundred and fifty zhang underground and discovers something amiss!]
[There is a deeply hidden chamber!]
Su Xing raised his eyebrows at this.
A hundred and fifty zhang underground, that’s almost four to five hundred meters, right?
At that depth, it’s not just bomb shelters; even nuclear blasts wouldn’t be a concern!
“What kind of secret needs to be concealed nearly five hundred meters underground?”
Su Xing pondered, his eyes moving back to the simulation panel.
[Although this chamber is deeply hidden, you still find an extremely concealed mechanism through your Divine Sense.]
[You trigger the mechanism, walk down the long staircase, and successfully enter the chamber.]
[The scene inside the chamber shocks you, for it is filled with controlled Puppets!]
[With your exceptional Divine Sense, you can sense faint traces of Spiritual Power on these individuals.]
[This means that there is a Cultivator behind these Puppets! It also means there is a Cultivator behind the Black Dragon Commerce Guild!]
[While you are slightly astonished, the mechanism has been triggered and these Puppets are awakened, all attacking you.]
[From previous intelligence, you know that these Puppets are mostly previously missing professionals, their strength ranging between Gold and Master Levels.]
[Such strength, even if hundreds of Puppets attacked at once, poses no fear to you.]
[Without much effort, you defeat all the Puppets.]
