“The refining of Essence-Nourishing Pills was not much more difficult than that of Organ Refining Pills, but your alchemy skills have improved greatly, and you soon mastered the art of making Essence-Nourishing Pills.”
“Three more months had passed, and during those months, you attempted to refine hundreds of batches of Essence-Nourishing Pills, but only succeeded with twenty batches. Afterward, you dedicated yourself to studying the Essence-Nourishing Pills, and your technique gradually became more proficient.”
“In the seventh year, it has been over a year since you joined the Descending Sect. Throughout this year, you appeared to be diligently aiding the Descending Sect with alchemy, but in reality, you were using their resources to improve your own alchemy skills.”
“Thanks to an abundant supply of medicinal herbs, you have hardly run out of Organ Refining Pills this year. Hundreds of Organ Refining Pills have made your Spiritual Energy more solid, and you feel your strength has grown by more than half compared to before.”
“But what helped you the most were the Essence-Nourishing Pills. You could feel your Divine Sense growing stronger, although it had not yet reached the point of condensing into form. However, you could now easily introspect, having a far greater control over the Spiritual Energy, meridians, and even your Dantian than ever before.”
“Of course, the most crucial point was, as your Divine Sense grew stronger, so did your alchemy skills, improving rapidly. Your control over the alchemy flame and timing became even more exquisite.”
Su Xing nodded satisfactorily upon reading this. The refining of Essence-Nourishing Pills strengthened his Divine Sense, which, in turn, nourished his alchemy skills; and as his alchemy skills further enhanced, it enabled Su Xing to produce more, higher-quality Essence-Nourishing Pills, creating a positive cycle.
With sufficient Organ Refining Pills, Su Xing’s Spiritual Energy became more solid, and his Golden Core more flawless. Perhaps, Su Xing was not far from achieving a superior-quality Golden Core?
Moreover, to Su Xing’s surprise, the Descending Sect’s grasp of Spiritual Medicine and the Cultivation World was far superior to that of the Great Xia Military, providing a tremendous boost to his Cultivation Level.
It seemed like Su Xing was working for the Descending Sect, but in reality, the Descending Sect was providing him with free resources for cultivation.
“I just wonder if there are resources like Spirit Stones within the Descending Sect, in addition to these Spiritual Medicines?”
Su Xing felt a slight longing in his heart. He usually was reluctant to use Spirit Stones for cultivation, as the number of Spirit Stones he owned was always low, and using them would leave him without enough Spirit Stones for simulations.
Nevertheless, Su Xing also had to spend a few Spirit Stones when refining elixirs.
Over the past month, Su Xing’s stock of Spirit Stones had dwindled to less than a thousand, with no channels for replenishment. If Spirit Stones were to run out completely, Su Xing might truly become immobilized.
“The Spirit Stones in my possession should be enough for another year or so… If I’m frugal, perhaps even a bit longer, but before the Spirit Stones are exhausted, I must find other sources of Spirit Stones.”
With this thought in mind, Su Xing continued with the simulation.
“One day, after providing a new batch of two hundred Organ Refining Pills, that Shadow Protector found you again. His words were generous with praise, indicating that you had the potential to become a leading figure among the new generation of the Descending Sect.”
“In front of hundreds of sect members, the Shadow Protector announced you as the eighteenth Elder of the Descending Sect and granted you the title ‘Medicine’. The rest of the sect respectfully addressed you as Elder Medicine.”
“After becoming an Elder of the Descending Sect, your privileges had significantly increased. You were now entitled to establish a dedicated team and you gained the qualification to enter the sect’s treasure vault!”
“You requested that Elder you knew before to transfer Wang Qingxuan under your command. Given your newfound status, the other Elders respected you greatly and naturally agreed to your modest request.”
“With Wang Qingxuan’s assistance, your work became much more efficient. Not only did she help you discreetly investigate the overall strength of the Descending Sect, but she also made your life much more pleasant.”
“After completing your monthly alchemy task, you prepared to visit the Descending Sect’s treasure vault with Wang Qingxuan in tow.”
Reading this, Su Xing wore an expression of amusement; he had actually become an Elder of the Descending Sect, and they even called him Elder Medicine?
At the same time, Su Xing was also astonished, for he knew the Elder he had met previously was at least of Heavenly King Level strength, and he was the eighteenth Elder…
This meant that the Descending Sect had at least seventeen individuals of Heavenly King Level strength!
Not to mention the Protectors above the Elders, who were likely to be Martial Emperor Level fighters!
Martial Emperor Level fighters were few in the Great Xia Country, numbering only in the hundreds, yet the Descending Sect boasted such powerhouses, a clear indication that this faction was far from ordinary.
Of course, what Su Xing was most interested in at the moment was the so-called treasury of the Descending Sect.
“The treasury of the sect… Could the second half of the Changchun Technique be inside?”
A trace of longing appeared in Su Xing’s heart as he continued to simulate.
[Access to the treasury is limited to sect members at the elder level and must be accompanied by a protector before entering the treasury.]
[Under the guidance of Elder Shadow, you enter the location of the treasury. To your surprise, this so-called treasury does not seem to be in the real world, but in a special replica.]
A thought crossed Su Xing’s mind upon seeing this; establishing the treasury within a special replica was quite a bold move.
It’s well-known that replicas carry the risk of disappearing. If the replica vanished one day, wouldn’t the Descending Sect’s treasury be utterly lost?
Su Xing wanted to witness for himself what this so-called treasury was really like.
Thus, with a thought, he said:
“I want to exchange for one hour of immersive simulation!”
[Ding, you will spend 100,000 points for a one-hour immersive simulation. Remaining points: 693,000.]
The voice of the simulator sounded in Su Xing’s ears.
Su Xing only felt his vision shift abruptly as he arrived in an unfamiliar place.
This place was clearly outdoors, with clear waters and lush mountains. In the distance, peaks rose one after another, and occasionally one could see life in the form of rabbits and deer sprinting through the woods.
This was clearly not the real world, because with the development of technology, there were almost no areas on Blue Star where nature was preserved so perfectly anymore.
Next to Su Xing were several companions, wearing masks and long robes that concealed their identities.
Among them, Su Xing recognized one petite figure at a glance—it was Wang Qingxuan.
“Elder Medicine, what’s happened to you?”
A man in a black robe walking ahead turned back and asked. His voice was very magnetic and androgynous, making it difficult to distinguish between male and female.
Su Xing, just having entered the simulator and caught off guard by the sudden question, was momentarily stunned, but he quickly recovered.
He said with a smile:
“I was thinking, the scenery in this replica is truly beautiful! In the real world, you can no longer see such sights!”
Hearing Su Xing’s words, Shadow Protector’s voice contained some surprise, as he puzzled:
“Could it be, Elder Medicine is also considering joining our Nature Faction?”
Su Xing felt puzzled upon hearing this. What was the Nature Faction? Was this a division within the Descending Sect?
Thus, Su Xing asked:
“Shadow Protector, what is the Nature Faction?”
