Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation! - Chapter 168

Chapter 168: Chapter 139: The Descending Sect’s Pawn, the Black Dragon Chamber of Commerce (5,000-word chapter)_2
 

Su Xing exchanged the goods of this week for simulated energy, and his energy skyrocketed once again, reaching over thirty million!

Thirty million, it seemed like a lot, but for Su Xing, it was far from enough.

“Sigh, I can’t spend it all, there’s no way I can spend it all!”

“These thirty million points of energy are just enough for me to go from the fourth level of the Divine Power Realm to the seventh level… I can’t even afford the energy needed to elevate my realm anymore!”

Su Xing sighed, his resolve to make money became even stronger.

On June 3, 2024, in the New Era, Su Xing started a new round of simulations.

“Start the simulation!”

[Ding! This simulation consumed 3900 points of energy, remaining energy 30.33 million points, remaining simulation times null.]

[Simulation start!]

[Extracting green talent costs 1000 points of energy, extracting blue talent costs 10k points of energy, extracting purple talent costs 100k points of energy. Do you want to extract?]

“Extract purple talent!”

Su Xing silently chanted.

[Congratulations, you have obtained the purple talent: Descendant of Shennong!]

“Descendant of Shennong? This name sounds impressive! What kind of talent is this?”

Su Xing thought, his eyes fixed on the simulation panel.

[Descendant of Shennong]: Purple talent, your affinity with any plant is greatly increased. You can easily cultivate and accelerate the maturity of spirit plants. The maturation time is greatly reduced. Additionally, your resistance to toxins is greatly enhanced. ps: After Shennong died from tasting herbs, his descendants acquired strong resistance to toxins.

Seeing this talent of Descendant of Shennong, Su Xing’s eyes lit up immediately.

“Good heavens, this is definitely an upgraded version of the plant affinity talent! With this talent, cultivating spirit plants will become much easier!”

“And it even comes with a toxin resistance buff, absolutely a god-level talent for farming!”

For a moment, Su Xing was extremely excited about this talent and looked at the simulation panel.

[In the Spirit Field Blessed Land, you realized that you were simulating.]

[You started to manipulate the spirit plants in the Spirit Field. Sure enough, the Shennong talent was much stronger than the previous plant affinity.]

[You planted a seed casually, and you could quickly accelerate its maturity. In just one week, it began to sprout, growing at more than double the previous speed!]

[Your wood element spiritual power had a stronger effect on accelerating the maturity of the plants, making the spirit grains in the Spirit Field plumper.]

[You were delighted to plant thirty seeds of the Gathering Spirit Flower, and these flowers began to grow robustly!]

[You took the time to cultivate wasteland. In just one week, you planted another ninety acres of spirit grains. At this time, the number of spirit grains in your Spirit Field had reached over a hundred acres!]

[A week later, Jin Congxue brought you millennium ginseng and other herbs she had found. Although the number was not large, it was enough for you to refine several Life Extension Pills.]

[During this time, Wang Qingxuan seemed much thinner. Although she no longer cried, she still often seemed lost, a complete change from before.]

[Whether for Wang Qingxuan or investigating the relationship between the Black Dragon Guild and the Descending Sect, you decided to go to the Black Dragon Guild.]

Seeing this, Su Xing nodded slightly and murmured:

“Sure enough, the talent of Descendant of Shennong is amazing. It seems that in this simulation, I should be able to cultivate a large batch of Gathering Spirit Flowers!”

“As for the Black Dragon Guild, it indeed warrants investigation…”

Thinking this, Su Xing looked at the simulation panel.

[One day, you took the top-tier Disguise Pill and Concealment Pill you refined. After confirming you wouldn’t be discovered, you infiltrated the Black Dragon Guild.]

[With your divine sense, you noticed that there were quite a few strong individuals in the Black Dragon Guild. There were several Heavenly King level experts alone, and quite a few of Master and Grandmaster Level profession users.]

[The rumored Martial Emperor did not seem to be in the guild at the moment. With your strength, you easily infiltrated the innermost part of the Black Dragon Guild.]

[It appeared to be an ordinary courtyard, like a regular quadrangle courtyard, but you felt increasingly that something was off.]

[Thus, you activated your divine sense, meticulously searching every corner of the place, hoping to find some clues.]

[The entire courtyard appeared flawless until you probed one hundred and fifty zhang underground, where you discovered a clue!]

[It was a deeply hidden secret chamber!]

Seeing this, Su Xing raised his eyebrows.

One hundred and fifty zhang underground, that was nearly four or five hundred meters deep, right?

At this depth, it could serve as an air raid shelter, and even a nuclear bomb wouldn’t be able to flatten it!

“What kind of secret needs to be concealed nearly five hundred meters underground?”

Su Xing pondered, looking at the simulation panel.

[Although the secret chamber was deeply hidden, you still managed to find a very concealed mechanism with your divine sense.]

[You triggered the mechanism, walked down the long stairs, and smoothly entered the chamber.]

[The scene within the chamber shocked you because it was full of manipulated puppets!]

[Relying on your excellent divine sense, you could sense faint traces of spiritual power on these people.]

[This meant that a cultivator was behind these puppets! It also meant that a cultivator was behind the Black Dragon Guild!]

[While you were slightly stunned, triggering the mechanism woke the puppets, and they all advanced toward you in attack.]

[Based on previous intelligence, you knew that most of these puppets were previously missing profession users, their strength ranging between Gold and Master Level.]

[Such strength, even if hundreds of puppets attacked simultaneously, would not intimidate you.]

[It didn’t take much effort for you to defeat all these puppets.]
