Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!

Chapter 1 I Bound a Cultivation Simulator

Translator: 549690339

Great Xia Country, Kyoto.

The top institution, Kyoto Polytechnic, a male student dormitory.

[Ding~]

An abrupt sound appeared in Su Xing’s mind.

As Su Xing was packing his equipment, preparing to enter the instance dungeon to farm gold, he froze.

“Who’s there? Who’s playing tricks on me?”

Su Xing looked around the empty dormitory, but didn’t find anything.

Then, a series of voices rang in his mind.

[Binding to Life Simulator…]

[Binding successful!]

[Host: Su Xing]

[Age: 21 Years Old]

[Occupation: Cultivator]

[Simulation Count: 1]

[Energy: 100]

[Introduction: The Life Simulator will simulate your future completely based on your development trajectory in the real world. After the simulation, you can obtain some rewards. Each simulation will consume a certain amount of energy. Simulation counts refresh once a week.]

Su Xing rubbed his eyes, incredulously looking at the virtual panel before him.

Immediately after, two lines of text appeared on the panel.

[Would you like to start the simulation?]

[Yes][No]

Looking at the panel before him, Su Xing’s eyes suddenly reddened.

“Three years! Do you have any idea how I’ve lived these past three years?”

“Damn, and here I thought I, as a transmigrator, had no golden finger!”

That’s right, Su Xing was a transmigrator who had crossed over to this wondrous world three years ago.

Unlike Earth in his previous life, in this world games merged with reality.

Demonic beasts, secret instance dungeons, items and equipment, were emerging endlessly…

Even more magical, at the age of eighteen, one could switch to a professional occupation, gaining experience by slaying dungeon monsters, thereby getting stronger.

Three years ago, upon arriving in this world, Su Xing awakened the one and only hidden occupation, Cultivator!

This news caused a sensation throughout Kyoto, and Su Xing was directly recruited into one of the national top institutions, Kyoto Polytechnic!

Initially, Su Xing’s performance was indeed outstanding, rapidly standing out among a group of freshmen due to the powerful physical quality of a Cultivator.

But soon, Su Xing encountered a critical problem, he could not level up!

Other professionals could gain experience points as rewards after killing instance dungeon monsters.

No matter how hard Su Xing tried, he could not gain even a bit of experience points no matter how many monsters he killed and how he tried to level up.

And so, three years passed.

Now in his senior year, his classmates had grown from Bronze Level to Silver Level, Gold Level, or even higher…

And him? He was still that small Qi Refining Stage One Cultivator.

But Su Xing refused to give in, persistently searching for a way to level up himself, and finally made some progress.

That was Body Refinement!

If he could not refine Qi, then he would train his body!

Thus, Su Xing relentlessly farmed instance dungeons for equipment to sell for money, even taking freshmen to the dungeons for leveling up.

He then used the money earned to purchase Instance Dungeon Items that could enhance his physique.

Finally, after three full years, he went from Body Refining Stage One to Body Refining Stage Six.

Body Refinement Stage Six, with a strength reaching thousands of catties, sounded quite fierce.

But his actual combat power was not even comparable to a Bronze Level 30 strength-based professional.

Yet Su Xing did not give up and continued to farm gold in instance dungeons and take on leveling commissions, constantly tempering his physique.

Scenes from the past flashed before his eyes, and at this moment, Su Xing with an excited heart and trembling hands, silently said:

“Start the simulation!”

[100 points of energy consumed, no remaining simulation counts.]

[Simulation begins!]

[This time, talent extraction is free, randomly extracting talent…]

[Ding, congratulations! You’ve acquired a white talent, Spiritual Root holder!]

[Spiritual Root Holder]: A white talent. Your roots are different from ordinary people, allowing you to embark on the path of immortality.

Su Xing was stunned when he saw this talent.

Could it be that he had been unable to cultivate these years because he had the profession but lacked a Spiritual Root, thus unable to advance his Qi Refining level?

Su Xing suppressed the doubts in his heart and chose to continue the simulation.

[Inside the dorm, you’ve awakened a golden finger, and you’re very happy.]

[That afternoon, several junior sisters from your first year invite you to go to an instance dungeon with them for leveling up, and you gladly agree.]

[You perform heroically in the bronze-level instance dungeon, and after clearing it, you obtain several white items and a reward of ten thousand yuan.]

[One of the junior sisters, embarrassed due to being short on funds, suggests paying in other (ruta) ways.]

[You look at your junior sister’s face and agree.]

[The next day, you start cultivation feeling refreshed, but you have no idea where to begin.]

[You start searching online for Qi Refinement techniques and stumble upon a world-shocking cultivation technique called “Pangu Breaks the Heavens Decree”!]

[Overjoyed, you begin to cultivate.]

[After a day of cultivation, your Cultivation Level hasn’t improved, and you almost cultivated astray.]

[Undeterred, you continue to cultivate day and night.]

[A month later, your Qi Refining Cultivation remains at the first level.]

[You realize that the cultivation techniques on the internet are all scams!]

[So you start spending a fortune to acquire cultivation techniques, only to end up with cheap goods from some treasure site, all under ten yuan with free shipping.]

[With no other choice, you continue to work on Body Refinement.]

Su Xing’s heart sank to see this. Without cultivation techniques, how could he possibly continue to cultivate?

Su Xing sighed and continued the simulation.

[You don’t give up, constantly working on Body Refinement while seeking information on cultivation techniques.]

[In your spare time, you often take your first-year junior sisters for leveling up, earning money while also getting plenty of close contact.]

[But all good things come to an end. Half a year has passed, and that first-year junior sister has broken through to become a Silver Level practitioner and cuts off contact with you.]

[On a calm afternoon with the wind rather noisy, you find her.]

[You ask her, “I thought with our friendship, we could talk about feelings.” But she tells you, “That was just business.”]

[Your pride is wounded, and you turn your frustration into strength, dedicating yourself to cultivation for half a year until your Body Refinement finally breaks through to the seventh layer.]

[As graduation nears, your classmates of the same year have all become famous practitioners, but you lack the power to graduate.]

[You get held back a year, but you’re secretly pleased because a new batch of junior sisters has enrolled, and you continue to take them for leveling up.]

[Gradually, you become famous. All the new students know there’s a fourth-year senior who got held back, who excels at taking new students through instance dungeons.]

[You make a fortune, amassing assets worth tens of millions within three years!]

Su Xing touched his chin and murmured,

“If I could just keep getting held back like this, it wouldn’t be so bad! At least there would always be fresh junior sisters…”

But then Su Xing’s expression changed.

[You originally thought life would simply continue on this even keel.]

[Unfortunately, because you failed to graduate for five consecutive years, you were expelled.]

[After being expelled, you lose your biggest source of income, and due to your low power, you can only linger in bronze-level instance dungeons year-round.]

[After much reflection, you decide to dedicate yourself to training your physique.]

[It takes you two years and all your savings, but you finally advance to the eighth layer of Body Refinement.]

Su Xing felt mixed emotions upon reading this; he hadn’t realized that Body Refinement could be so challenging.

He had spent three years to advance from the first to the sixth layer,

but his future self had taken a whole seven years to go from the sixth to the eighth layer.

Su Xing patiently read on.

[Penniless, you have no choice but to go back to your old job, making a living by farming in instance dungeons.]

[Still sharp despite the years, you at the eighth layer of Body Refinement become an invincible force in the bronze-level instance dungeons, saving another ten million in assets.]

[One day, your parents tell you that your sister, Su Nianan, has died…]
