Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!

Su Xing also wanted to explore the secrets behind the sect elder, but there seemed to be no opportunity in this simulation, so he could only wait for the next simulation to try again.

Su Xing took the Condensation Technique in his hand and then went to browse the Heaven and Earth Treasures section in the Treasure Vault.

This browsing left Su Xing astonished; he couldn't take his eyes off the shelves.

"A hundred-year-old Blood Ginseng... the main ingredient for refining Blood Replenishing Pills, hissing, there's actually such good stuff?"

"Fifty-year-old Resurrection Grass, the main ingredient for refining Resurrection Pills, one of which can restore a dying person to full Vital Energy!"

"There is also two hundred-year-old Dragon Thrush Grass, five hundred-year-old Zishen Flower... my god, is this treasure vault the repository of an entire sect's medicine garden?"

Su Xing found it hard to believe. With his impressive alchemy skills and his knowledge of spiritual medicines learned from the Shennong Spiritual Nurturing Technique, he easily identified the names of most of the spiritual medicines.

These spiritual medicines were extremely precious, and the variety was comprehensive, ranging from hundreds of years old to over a decade old, with an abundance of quantity, there were probably tens of thousands of spiritual medicines in the entire treasure vault.

"My god, how many elixirs can be refined from all of these?"

Su Xing was filled with envy. If he relied on planting spiritual medicines himself in the Spirit Field Blessed Land, it would take him at least hundreds of years to obtain this much.

But now, all these spiritual medicines were laid out before Su Xing...

Most importantly, in the entire Descending Sect, Su Xing was the only one who could bring out the medicinal properties of these herbs, which meant that these spiritual medicines were almost exclusively for Su Xing!

Although the elixirs Su Xing refined could only be used by the members of the Descending Sect, the alchemy skills he mastered during the refinement process were genuine.

In other words, this Descending Sect was practically a sacred place for Su Xing to brush up on his alchemy experience!

Su Xing reluctantly moved his gaze away from the spiritual medicines and said to the Elder Shadow beside him:

"Your Descending Sect's Treasure Vault's spiritual medicines are really comprehensive, I really had my eyes opened!"

The Elder Shadow patted Su Xing on the shoulder and corrected him:

"It's our Descending Sect! Now you are our eighteenth elder! And there's only one alchemist in our entire sect, which is you. You can use them as you need!"

Pausing, Elder Shadow added:

"Of course, this is also because the Heaven and Earth Treasures in the treasure vault are almost all managed by our Nature Faction, so we have such high authority!"

Su Xing's eyes widened in surprise and he exclaimed excitedly:

"Is that true? I can actually refine several uncommon elixirs... It's just that I've always been short of materials, so it's difficult to produce anything!"

Hearing this, Elder Shadow also became excited and quickly said:

"Elder Medicinal, of course you can use the spiritual medicines in the treasure vault, as long as you register it each time you send someone to get it!"

"Also, the elixirs you refine will need to be handed over to the sect... Of course, Elder Medicinal can also get a portion of the elixirs and a large amount of contribution points!"

Su Xing nodded repeatedly. As long as he could gain experience in alchemy, it was fine.

If each simulation had such plentiful materials for him to refine new elixirs, it might only take a few more rounds before Su Xing's alchemy skills could advance from beginner level to minor achievement level.

By that time, Su Xing could even try refining mid-grade elixirs!

Low-grade Essence-Nourishing Pills, Essence-Nurturing Pills, Organ Refining Pills already had such effects, not to mention mid-grade elixirs, which would definitely accelerate Su Xing's cultivation speed considerably!

Moreover... the most crucial point was that the members of the Descending Sect had no knowledge of alchemy!

He could say he needed a hundred spiritual medicines but only use ten, keeping the remaining ninety for himself. Wouldn't that be fantastic?

That was precisely what Su Xing thought, and that was exactly what he did.

He immediately requested over a hundred spiritual medicines from Protector Shadow, stating that if he had these medicines, he could refine new elixirs for the sect within six months.

Protector Shadow naturally did not refuse, directly agreeing to Su Xing's request.

Then, when leaving the sect's Treasure Vault, Protector Shadow said to Su Xing:

"Elder Medicinal, please hand over the Condensation Technique and the herbs you obtained to Dragon Protector for registration..."

Su Xing nodded and then showed Dragon Protector the items he had taken out.

Seeing the Condensation Technique, an astonished look flashed across Dragon Protector's ancient, unchanging face. He asked:

"Are you a cultivator?"

Su Xing's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly explained:

"My profession is a practitioner, but I don't have any cultivation... I wanted the alchemy technique just to study alchemy!"

Hearing this, Dragon Protector frowned slightly and then pulled Su Xing over, placing a hand on Su Xing's pulse.

Dragon Protector's expression changed dramatically. He exclaimed:

"No, you are a Golden Core Stage cultivator! Who are you? How can you cultivate to the Golden Core Stage in this era of declining magic!"

"Where did you get your spiritual energy and spirit stones?"

Seeing Dragon Protector's intense reaction, Protector Shadow quickly explained:

"Dragon Protector, you must be mistaken. How could Elder Medicinal be a Golden Core Stage cultivator? He doesn't even have spirit stones..."

Dragon Protector snorted coldly and stretched out a bony hand, grabbing at Su Xing.

Su Xing's heart skipped a beat. This Dragon Protector could actually see through his cultivation realm...

One must know that ordinary profession users couldn't see Su Xing's cultivation. Their insight skills could only detect Su Xing's bronze-level profession rank.

Those who could detect Su Xing's cultivation had to be cultivators!

Was Dragon Protector a cultivator?

And one with considerable power at that!

Countless thoughts flashed through Su Xing's mind, but Dragon Protector's hand seemed to have already flashed with mysterious light.

At this moment, a system notification sounded in Su Xing's ear.

[Ding, the immersive simulation has ended...]

With the notification sound, Su Xing's consciousness instantly returned to the real world.

Su Xing quickly checked the simulator to find out the origins of this Dragon Protector.

[In the Treasure Vault of the Descending Sect, Dragon Protector conducted a soul search on you, and the simulator automatically shielded the memories of the simulator in your mind.]

[The soul search by Dragon Protector lasted for over ten minutes. He discovered your secret of not genuinely wanting to join the Descending Sect, but he seemed unconcerned about it.]

[Due to the memory modification, in Dragon Protector's eyes, you were just a lucky person who accidentally obtained a small number of spirit stones and cultivation techniques.]

[You were subjected to a soul search for ten minutes, and after the soul search ended, you became vegetative.]

[Dragon Protector, displeased upon seeing your dazed, drooling state, slapped you into pieces with one palm.]

[You have died!]

[Ding, this simulation has ended!]
