Su Xing was somewhat excited for a moment, he had drawn a similar talent that increased understanding before, the blue talent “Quick Wit”!

When triggered, it indeed improved the efficiency of alchemy and even enhanced his ability to think deeply about certain matters.

But clearly, this “Quick Wit” talent was far from achieving the effect of enlightenment.

“I just don’t know how great the probability of this enlightenment is… What exactly is the effect of enlightenment?”

Su Xing rubbed his hands together, ready to start the simulation, looking forward to his first purple talent with great anticipation.

[Within the Spirit Field Blessed Land, you realize you are in a simulation.]

[You check for any changes in yourself but find nothing different from before.]

[So, you begin your daily cultivation and alchemy, and after a week, you take the five thousand elixirs you’ve refined to meet with Jin Congxue.]

[Jin Congxue reports to you on the acquisition of the Lingyun Commerce Guild’s properties and discusses with you the details of establishing a “Instance Trash” acquisition department.]

[According to Jin Congxue’s estimates, the weekly acquisition of instance trash could reach between three hundred to five hundred thousand items, and as the department continues to expand, this number is expected to increase.]

[At the same time, Jin Congxue informs you that she is preparing to acquire several instance mines that can produce exotic metals, estimating the acquisition costs to be around two hundred billion, but once successful, you would have a steady source of exotic metals only requiring the cost of labor for mining.]

[You agree with Jin Congxue’s plan and eagerly reward her.]

[In the following month, you work even harder at refining elixirs, hoping to save enough money to contract a few instance mines that produce exotic metals.]

Su Xing’s eyes lit up at this.

“Right! Acquiring exotic metal mines, how did I not think of this?”

Exotic metals are found within instance mines and require professionals to dig them out to obtain small amounts of exotic metals.

These instances with exotic metals are extremely valuable and are known as mine instances.

Most mine instances are controlled by the state or official authorities, but some powerful commerce guilds can also contract them privately at a high cost.

Top-tier commerce guilds, including the Jin Merchant Guild, have business that contracts mine instances; they sell the excavated exotic metals at market price, only needing to pay for the labor costs.

But for Su Xing, if he could contract a few mine instances, it would mean having a steady and cheap source of exotic metals; in other words, a stable source of simulation energy.

Of course, contracting a mine instance requires rigorous official screening, numerous formalities, and forming a complete mining chain also takes a lot of time, so no significant results are expected in the short term.

“Tsk tsk, Jin Congxue truly is my benefactor!”

Assenting to Jin Congxue’s business acumen, Su Xing continued the simulation.

[One day, after taking a Disguise Pill and a Breath-Concealing Pill, you prepared to enter the Luotian Meeting Instance.]

[Lucky for you, the professional who had reserved a spot had an emergency and couldn’t come, and you obtained the chance to enter the Luotian Meeting Instance!]

Su Xing’s eyes shone at this and he said without hesitation:

“Use the immersive simulation! Duration: 24 hours!”

Su Xing now had plenty of simulation energy. A day’s immersive simulation would only cost 2.4 million points of energy, which he could afford.

Aside from any other opportunities, the Scripture Pavilion alone in the Luotian Meeting was worth it for Su Xing!

[Ding, immersive simulation successful, 2.4 million points of energy consumed, simulation time 24 hours, remaining energy 39,701,666 points!]

With the notification sound in his ear, Su Xing’s vision changed and he arrived inside the Luotian Meeting Instance.

“Xiaochuan, the Luo Tian Meeting is about to begin. Go to the back mountain and invite Elder Shennong to participate!”

In front of Su Xing, an elder spoke with a smile, it was Elder Che, Su Xing’s master from the previous simulation.

“Yes, Master!”

Su Xing bowed and walked towards the back mountain.

Along the way, Su Xing pondered the fragments of memory in his mind.

Su Xing’s identity remained that of Luo Xiaochuan, a disciple of the Luo Tian Sect, with Elder Che as his master, but his cultivation level had increased to the seventh layer of the Origin Martial Realm, and Elder Che formally accepted him as his personal disciple!

“Indeed, in the last simulation I was still an ordinary Inner Sect Disciple, but now I’ve been promoted to a personal disciple of an elder! As my cultivation level continues to increase, my status in the instance will also change!”

Su Xing muttered with some enlightenment.

Soon, Su Xing came to the back mountain of the Luo Tian Sect.

Along the way, he saw countless Gathering Spirit Flowers and various rare and exotic herbs, but since it was his second experience, Su Xing was no longer as shocked as he was the first time.

“Shennong Uncle! The master has instructed me to invite you to the Luo Tian Meeting!”

Su Xing said respectfully to a young man cultivating the fields.

Quickly, Shennong Youtian put down the farm tools and nodded to Su Xing:

“Is that Xiaochuan! It’s been a few years, and your cultivation has improved quite a bit!”

In this simulation, Shennong Youtian seemed to be familiar with Luo Xiaochuan. On the way to the Luo Tian Meeting, the two chatted intermittently.

Su Xing found out that because Shennong Youtian had been farming all year round and seldom met people, he was quite talkative. He was very happy to talk non-stop upon meeting Su Xing, who nodded from time to time and responded.

In the exchange with Shennong Youtian, Su Xing benefited greatly.

“Uncle, Xiaochuan has a question that I’d like to ask you…”

Seeing that they were about to arrive at the meeting place, Su Xing was prepared to seize the opportunity to benefit further.

Shennong Uncle nodded and asked, “What would my nephew like to ask? Just speak freely!”

Su Xing hurriedly inquired, “Lately, your nephew has encountered some difficulties in the practice of Body Refinement, concerning the mastery of Origin Force…”

Su Xing expressed his doubts; his mastery of Origin Force was still very superficial, and in this aspect, he had great potential for development.

After listening, Shennong Youtian nodded slightly and replied:

“Body Refinement Cultivators reaching the Origin Martial Realm can be considered as having formally entered the path of Body Cultivation. Cultivators of the Origin Martial Realm focus on the mastery and application of Origin Force, while the subsequent Divine Strength Realm is the explosive realm of strength and physical aptitude…”

Shennong Youtian talked at length, yet never quite got to the point. Only at the end did he mention:

“Ahem, Uncle isn’t very knowledgeable about the path of Body Cultivation. If my nephew is curious, you could look up two books in the Scripture Pavilion, namely ‘Detailed Explanation on the Utilization of Origin Force’ and ‘Advanced Utilization of Origin Force.’ Fully digest these two books, and you could be considered an expert in the mastery of Origin Force!”

Su Xing felt embarrassed after listening, darn it, so this uncle didn’t understand either, still pretending to know?

However, through this matter, Su Xing also understood that there are specialists in every field. This Shennong Uncle was skilled in the way of cultivating the spirit, and he could inquire about doubts in this area.

If he did not understand other aspects, the Scripture Pavilion might indeed be the best place to go.

Having been asked about a blind spot in his knowledge, Shennong Youtian also felt somewhat embarrassed and seemed no longer inclined to answer Su Xing’s questions.

Thus, Su Xing did not bother further. After sending Shennong Youtian to his master’s place, he immediately went to the Scripture Pavilion and became engrossed in “Detailed Explanation on the Utilization of Origin Force.”

Immersed in reading, a day quickly passed by.

It was only when Su Xing heard the simulator’s notification sound that he reluctantly exited the immersive simulation and returned to the real world.

“So, it turns out there are three stages in the application of Origin Force, and I’m currently only at the most superficial stage of enhancement, capable of enhancing strength and defense only… But if I were to reach the profound stage, I could even release Origin Force to harm others externally, and learn attacking techniques that match the Origin Force!”

Excitement spread across Su Xing’s face. If he could cultivate Origin Force to an advanced stage, he might even be able to combat a Divinity Transformation Cultivator when he reached the Great Perfection of the Origin Martial Realm!

“Alas, it’s a pity that this immersive simulation is too expensive, costing 2.4 million energy to simulate a single day, and I can only enter the Luo Tian Meeting Instance three times at most. If it’s used for learning, that’s 7 million energy points gone!”

Su Xing felt a pinch, sighed, and then continued to simulate.

[You emerged from the Luo Tian Meeting Instance with a deeper understanding of Origin Force.]

[Over the following months, you continued to peacefully engage in alchemy and cultivation every day until one day, Wang Qingxuan found you…]

[After a tumultuous night, you joined the Descending Sect along with Wang Qingxuan.]

[As your strength increased and your confidence swelled, you no longer concealed your alchemy skills and straightforwardly proposed to become an elder in the Descending Sect.]
