Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!

[At the same time, you felt a subtle change in your Heavenly Thunder Physique; it was gradually strengthening...]

[By harnessing each bolt of thunder, your comprehension of the origin of thunder was also rapidly improving...]

[In the blink of an eye, the third bolt of thunder struck, you withstood it, gravely injured, on the verge of death...]

[The fourth bolt of thunder struck...]

[You died!]

[This simulation has ended!]

After the simulation ended, Su Xing sighed.

"It's a pity, still a bit short!"

"It seems that 128 Body-Protecting Sword Auras are still not enough to fend off the thunder's offensive..."

"If the Body-Protecting Sword Aura could advance further, it might withstand the thunder, allowing my comprehension of the origin of thunder to deepen, and the Heavenly Thunder Physique to advance further!"

In conclusion, Su Xing's direction was correct.

In the terrifying large-scale thunder region, Su Xing was able to successfully resist using the Body-Protecting Sword Aura.

One hundred and twenty-eight Body-Protecting Sword Auras allowed Su Xing to withstand the thunder's count from one to three!

If the Body-Protecting Sword Aura went a step further, Su Xing could advance the Heavenly Thunder Physique, comprehend the origin of thunder, and break through the limit again!

"Forty years of simulation duration, and further exploring the preconditions for Body Refinement's great achievement..."

Su Xing nodded slightly, his gaze turned to the simulation rewards.

[Master Chef]: Purple Talent, priced at 1 million energy points.

[Twenty Years of Alchemy Experience]: Redeeming it will slightly increase existing alchemy insights, priced at 10 million energy points.

[Fourth Level of Integration Phase Cultivation]: Mid-stage Integration Phase Cultivator, sensing the rudimentary form of the Great Dao, comprehending the power of origin, cultivated to the peak of the fourth level of Integration Phase, one step away from the fifth level, can break through at any time... priced at 1.5 billion energy points.

[Second Stage of Heavenly Thunder Physique (Incomplete)]: The second stage of the Heavenly Thunder Physique, tempered by heavenly thunder, absorbing the origin of thunder to strengthen the physique, greatly enhancing comprehension of the origin of thunder, improving the purity of Thunder Spiritual Root, and increasing affinity for Thunder Spiritual Qi. Priced at 300 million energy points.

[Origin of Thunder (Beginner)]: Having a certain insight into the origin of thunder, which is the foundational structure of the Great Dao of Thunder, possessing strong destructive power and significant restraint against demons and ghosts, priced at 200 million energy points.

[Body-Protecting Sword Aura (Minor Achievement)]: Comprehended by Su Xing, based on Body-Protecting Gang Qi, with Origin Force and Sword Intent as the core, summoning Sword Qi Barrier to protect the body, its power comparable to a Great Divine Power, integrating offense and defense, learned to fight beyond one's level, currently with 128 Body-Protecting Sword Auras.

Priced at 700 million energy points.

"Second stage of Heavenly Thunder Physique... Beginner insight into the origin of thunder?"

Su Xing's eyes brightened, surprised that the brief experience of thunder tempering brought two more rewards to choose from.

"But it's a pity that both are in an incomplete state... If my strength were stronger, if my comprehension of the Body-Protecting Sword Aura were deeper, perhaps I could have successfully advanced the Heavenly Thunder Physique and comprehended more of the origin of thunder..."

Su Xing sighed lightly; this time his favored rewards were still the Integration Phase Cultivation and the 128 Body-Protecting Gang Qi.

"These two rewards together require nearly 2.2 billion simulated energy... Counting this week's traded goods, it should barely be enough..."

"Fortunately, I haven't broken through to the fifth level of the Integration Phase, otherwise the energy might not be enough to bring out two rewards..."

Su Xing felt a bit helpless; he had been trading in debt for rewards recently.

Maybe after Lu Yuanwu completes the transaction of ten thousand tons of third-tier alien metal, Su Xing's situation would be slightly more comfortable.

Su Xing glanced at the time; Lu Yuanwu should be waiting at the agreed location by now.

So, Su Xing disguised himself, concealing his aura, and went to find Lu Yuanwu.

Soon after, the transaction ended, 2 billion simulated energy was in hand, and Su Xing cautiously returned to the Spirit Field Cave without any accidents.

"No puppet refining for this week... For now, I have an important task ahead!"

"With my current grasp of the Dao of Puppets, perhaps I can attempt initial refinement of True Person Wan Mu..."

True Person Wan Mu, a half-step Integration Phase cultivator, combined with being a prodigy, was almost comparable to a Great Emperor-level powerhouse!

If Su Xing could subdue and refine him into a puppet, he would not only gain a powerful combat force but also a high-level alchemy puppet!

After all, True Person Wan Mu came from the Wan Mu Sect, a renowned alchemy sect!

With this thought, Su Xing felt some anticipation, then began to disguise and conceal his aura.

A quarter of an hour later, Su Xing disguised himself as a middle-aged man who had never appeared before, adding another alias.

"To enter the ruins of the Wan Mu Sect, I need to gather three fragments of jade first... This week, there may not be time for alchemy..."

Su Xing sighed, then set off and left Kyoto City.

After half an hour of sword flight, Su Xing arrived at the entrance of the Xianwu Era instance.

Su Xing cast a spell, then entered the Xianwu Era instance.

"According to the distance, this place is closest to the Changchun Sect... Let's go there first to get the jade fragment."

Su Xing muttered to himself, then took flight on his sword, starting to search for the three sects.

The method to obtain the jade fragments was simple. Su Xing only needed to cast a minor spell like Hypnosis to obtain the fragments from the three sects.

The only troublesome part was that the three sects were far apart.

It took Su Xing a day to collect the three jade fragments.

After collecting the jade fragments, Su Xing started to look for the ruins of the Wan Mu Sect.

Another day passed before Su Xing finally found the giant stone that served as the formation's entrance.

"By disabling this formation, I can enter the ruins of the Wan Mu Sect..."
