Su Xing saw this and immediately thought to himself, “Steady!”

Having the status of an elder within the Descending Sect, that was indeed the position of a real higher-up!

Plus, with Shadow Protector acting as his backing in the simulation, Su Xing figured that damned Zong wouldn’t dare to mess with him.

“Ah, it’s indeed comfortable working under Shadow Protector! Not only is the treatment good, but there’s also plenty of time. I only need to spend a few days each month to complete my tasks, and the rest of the time I can cultivate myself, wonderful!”

Su Xing sighed softly. In the last simulation, he had joined under Damned Zong, and the outcome was too miserable to look at, nowhere near as good as under Shadow Protector. Not only was she a great beauty, but she was also genuinely good to Su Xing.

Su Xing continued the simulation.

[In the third year, after becoming an elder, you have the right to choose your own subordinates. You make Wang Qingxuan your elder secretary, who does some work when you’re not busy.]

[It is worth mentioning that besides Wang Qingxuan becoming your subordinate, among your newly recruited subordinates, there is one named Little Stone, the same follower you once saved using a Wound Healing Pill, who did not betray you.]

[You focus on your cultivation every day, hardly ever leaving home except when necessary to complete your tasks. You do not socialize with other elders within the sect, dedicating yourself entirely to cultivation.]

[In the fourth year, your cultivation level advances to the sixth layer of the Golden Core Stage, and you focus on comprehending the Golden Core condensation techniques, further enhancing the quality of your Golden Core.]

[In the fifth year, your cultivation level advances to the seventh layer of the Golden Core Stage.]

[In the sixth year, your cultivation level advances to the eighth layer of the Golden Core Stage.]

[In the seventh year, your cultivation level advances to the ninth layer of the Golden Core Stage.]

[In the eighth year, your cultivation level advances to the great perfection of the Golden Core Stage.]

[In the ninth year, after reaching the great perfection of the Golden Core Stage, you did not continue to strive for an increase in cultivation level, aiming for a breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Stage in one go.]

[Firstly, because you knew that even with your strong talent, advancing to the Nascent Soul Stage would still require a lot of time.]

[Secondly, you knew that your foundation was not yet solid enough and that a lot of time was needed to refine your Golden Core, enabling you to unleash greater combat power.]

[So you began to reduce the intake of Essence-Nourishing Pills and spent a fixed four hours each day condensing the spiritual energy within your body, while also refining your Golden Core.]

[In the tenth year, your cultivation level did not make any further breakthrough, but you could feel that the quality of your Golden Core was becoming stronger. The spiritual energy within you was at least twenty percent stronger than when you had first reached the great perfection of the Golden Core Stage.]

[You continued to tirelessly refine your Golden Core. With a simulator at your disposal, you had plenty of time.]

[One day, Shadow Protector sought you out. Over the years, you had helped her refine countless elixirs, and you had gained her immense trust, becoming her most important confidante.]

[She called you into a duplicate realm and then took out a corpse of a Shadow Beast, inviting you to join her in transforming your organs to break free from the constraints of the flesh.]

[Looking at the hideous corpse on the ground, you felt a wave of nausea. You didn’t want to become a half-human, half-beast existence, so you refused.]

[Shadow Protector was not surprised by your refusal. She said she would give you time to slowly accept this matter, but she also indicated that the time she could spare for you was running out, and you had to become a member of the main race as soon as possible.]

[You know what the Shadow Protector means by saying there isn’t much time left, because due to the weakness of the Human Race, the invasion from the Foreign Race is accelerating, and perhaps soon the Demon-Subduing Pass will fall.]

[The destruction of the real world would definitely be bad for you, as it indicates that the time you have to cultivate is dwindling.]

[You begin to ponder whether your own efforts can slow down the rate of the Foreign Race’s invasion of the Human Race.]

[Over the years, you have been able to consistently acquire over two hundred medicinal herbs per month, enough to produce close to two thousand elixirs. Excluding the portion you submit for your duties and what you use for your own cultivation, you have saved up over fifty thousand Essence-Nourishing Pills and Mind-Nourishing Pills in ten years.]

[You consider whether you could offer these elixirs to the upper echelons of the Great Xia Military because if you were discovered, you would definitely be treated as a traitor by the Descending Sect.]

[But you know full well that if you do nothing, the real world may be destroyed in just over four years, during which time you can only continue your simulations for four more years.]

[One day, you find a perfect excuse to temporarily leave the base and, after making sure no one is following, you use a Disguise Pill to change your appearance.]

[After disguising yourself, you reach out directly to Lu Yuanwu and tell him that you have a great gift for him.]

[Naturally, Lu Yuanwu thinks you’re a fraud and refuses to meet with you.]

[Having no other choice, you use some connections to secretly get in touch with Jin Congxue and manage to secure a meeting with Lu Yuanwu.]

[On an empty rooftop, you hand Lu Yuanwu a storage ring that contains over twenty thousand Essence-Nourishing Pills and more than ten thousand Mind-Nourishing Pills.]

[This is undoubtedly a huge fortune, and with these elixirs fully utilized, the Great Xia Military may even produce thousands of Grandmaster Level practitioners within a year.]

[You tell Lu Yuanwu to make good use of these elixirs and to keep their source and effects as hidden as possible. After handing over the elixirs to Lu Yuanwu, you leave.]

[In the eleventh year, you continue to produce elixirs as usual, rarely venturing out except when necessary for your tasks.]

[One day, the Shadow Protector approaches you, accompanied by Protector Zong and several other Elders.]

[You can sense the Shadow Protector’s unstable emotions even through the mask, and your heart sinks.]

[The Shadow Protector angrily demands to know why you have betrayed her, telling you that the Human Race is already beyond salvation and that your actions will change nothing.]

[Protector Zong goes further, saying he has had his eye on you for a while. He wants to extract your secrets and refine you into an elixir to enhance his cultivation.]

[You feign confusion and declare your unwavering loyalty, never having betrayed anyone. But when the Shadow Protector brings out an Essence-Nourishing Pill and says it was obtained from the Great Xia Military, you know your cover is blown.]

[Several Elders and the two Protectors close in on you, and you realize you are no match for them.]

[In a moment of dire urgency, you activate your Spiritual Power and flee into the Spirit Field Blessed Land instance.]

[Thankfully, you had a plan in place just in case something like this happened and you faced a siege. You had prepared enough supplies and food in the Spirit Field Blessed Land and left behind thousands of Essence-Nourishing Pills and Mind-Nourishing Pills, all sufficient for a long period of cultivation.]

[The Spirit Field Blessed Land is safe, even Martial Emperor Level practitioners and Divinity Transformation Stage cultivators cannot enter, so you start to cultivate there in peace.]

[In the twelfth year, your cultivation level has not broken through, but the quality of your Golden Core has improved further, and you feel that condensing a top-quality Golden Core is not far off.]
