While Others are Leveling Up, I Alone Will Cultivate Until Mahayana Before Making My Move

[Two months later, a monstrous beast descended upon Great Xia Country.]

[You gave the monstrous beast the middle finger.]

[The monstrous beast swallowed the entire Great Xia Country whole, and you died!]

[You activated your talent, Unwilling to Die with Eyes Closed...]

[Ding, this simulation has ended!]

[You may choose one of the following rewards: Resolute Countenance (Talent), Ninth Layer of Foundation Establishment Stage (Cultivation Level)]

[Resolute Countenance]: A white talent, priced at 1000 points of energy.

[Ninth Layer of Foundation Establishment Stage]: Cultivation level, priced at 9800 points of energy.

"Only cultivated up to the Ninth Layer of the Foundation Establishment Stage, huh..."

Su Xing slightly furrowed his brows, remembering the elder's requirement to break through to the Golden Core Stage to become his disciple.

But even in this simulation, despite Su Xing becoming a cultivation maniac, he had still been unable to break through to the Golden Core Stage due to the lack of Spirit Stones.

"Well, there's always a way when you reach the mountain..."

Su Xing sighed, then unhesitatingly chose the cultivation level.

[Ding, you chose to bring out the Ninth Layer of Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation level from the simulation, expending 9800 points of energy, remaining energy 3880 points...]

As soon as he finished speaking, the aura of Su Xing's cultivation level began to surge dramatically.

Qi Refinement fifth layer... Qi Refinement seventh layer... Qi Refinement Realm Great Perfection!

Crack~

The bottleneck between the Qi Refinement Realm and the Foundation Establishment Stage was effortlessly pierced through, and Su Xing became a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Stage!

But this was far from the end!

Foundation Establishment second layer... Foundation Establishment fourth layer...

Su Xing's cultivation level continued to explosively rise until it gradually stopped at the Ninth Layer of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

"Phew~"

Su Xing gently exhaled a breath of foul air and carefully felt the changes in his body.

His five senses seemed to become sharper, allowing him to hear the faint breathing of passengers dozens of meters away.

At the same time, Su Xing's spirit also became more vigorous; going three to five days without sleep had no effect on him whatsoever.

What's more significant was that Su Xing felt the mana and Spiritual Energy within his body had undergone earth-shaking changes.

If the mana at Qi Refinement fifth layer was akin to a bucket of water, then after breaking through to the Ninth Layer of Foundation Establishment Stage, the mana within Su Xing could be compared to a well!

That was an increase by dozens or even a hundredfold!

Besides, it seemed as though Su Xing's physical strength had also slightly enhanced.

"What a pity, I now possess ample mana... but lack cultivation techniques and cultivator's methods..."

Su Xing lightly shook his head and murmured to himself.

For a cultivator, even though mana cultivation level is fundamental, the true strength of a cultivator comes from offensive scriptures, alchemy, artifact refining, talismans, and various divine skills.

Now, Su Xing had ample mana but lacked many methods, similar to a job class with high attributes but devoid of any skills, impractical!

However, fortunately, the elder in the Spirit Field instance within Qingyun must have had many immortal methods.

Su Xing's longing for the Qingyun Spirit Field instance grew even stronger.

After the significant increase in cultivation level, Su Xing started to inspect his system panel.

[Name: Su Xing]

[Occupation: Cultivator (Unique Hidden Occupation)]

[Cultivation Level: Ninth Layer of Foundation Establishment Stage, Body Refinement Realm Great Perfection]

[Cultivation Technique: Changchun Technique]

[Talent: Dual-type Spiritual Root of Wood and Fire, Unwilling to Die with Eyes Closed...]

[Skills: None]

[Equipment: Bi-blood Longsword (Green), Thorn Chain Mail (Green), Qingyun Longboots (Green)]

With the Ninth Layer of Foundation Establishment Stage coupled with the Great Perfection of the Body Refinement Realm, Su Xing could look down upon the vast majority of Silver Level professionals.

Feeling comforted by the surge in cultivation level, Su Xing started to meditate and rest with eyes closed.

Several hours later, the plane landed in Jinling City.

Su Xing did not delay, and after leaving the airport, he swiftly made his way towards the western outskirts of Jinling.

As dusk fell, Su Xing simply found a large tree and began to cultivate under it.

The night passed without incident.

The next day, Su Xing started to look for traces of Jin Congxue.

"According to the simulation's hints, I should encounter Jin Congxue this afternoon... and since I don't know where that pathway is, I still need Jin Congxue to lead the way,"

Su Xing began searching outside the city.

By dusk, Su Xing saw a slim figure approaching from a distance.

A thought crossed Su Xing's mind; this might be Jin Congxue.

As the woman drew closer, Su Xing got a clear view of her appearance.

Clad in a red garment, her black hair draped over her shoulders, with fair skin and a graceful figure, she looked like a woman in her early twenties, brimming with youthfulness yet not lacking in charm.

"Tsk, tsk, who would have guessed Jin Congxue is already thirty years old..."

Su Xing blinked and then pretended to brush past Jin Congxue.

"Hello, I'm a traveler from out of town, I got lost outside Jinling City, could you help me find my way?"

Su Xing tried to make himself look as amiable as possible.

Upon hearing this, Jin Congxue frowned slightly and pointed in a direction, but she had no intention of leading the way for Su Xing.

A sense of trouble dawned on Su Xing; he had overlooked that in the previous simulations he had the "resolute face" attribute that easily roused favorability.

But now, he didn't have those talents!

"Looks like I have to resort to plan B..."

Su Xing nodded in thanks, then pretended to accidentally drop the bag on his shoulder, and several ancient Buddhist scriptures slipped and fell to the ground.

These were expensive Buddhist texts Su Xing had purchased at a high price.

"Come on, talk to me, please talk to me!"

Su Xing inwardly prayed.

Sure enough, Jin Congxue's attention was caught, and she took the initiative to help Su Xing pick up these texts.

"These are rare original scriptures... You seem to have quite a knowledge of Buddhism?"

Jin Congxue blinked and asked.

Accepting the texts, Su Xing shook his head and said:

"I wouldn't say I'm very knowledgeable, it's just a hobby of mine."

Jin Congxue's eyes glistened as she carefully scrutinized Su Xing and suggested:

"I happen to be heading back to Jinling City too, why don't we go together?"

Su Xing feigned hesitation for a moment, then nodded:

"Sure, it's more convenient to have company."

Su Xing and Jin Congxue set off towards Jinling City.

During the journey, Jin Congxue and Su Xing discussed knowledge related to the Buddhist scriptures. While Su Xing was not deep in his studies, he always managed to share some interesting Buddhist anecdotes, eliciting continuous smiles from Jin Congxue.

While passing through a forest, Jin Congxue volunteered:

"Su Xing, I know of a shortcut through here to Jinling City that can save us half an hour... how about we take this path?"

Su Xing looked at the forest ahead; it was extremely remote, and if not for Jin Congxue leading the way, he might not find it even after a month of searching.

Is it time to enter the cultivation dungeon?

Su Xing's heart thudded. Although he had entered the Qingyun Spirit Field several times in simulations, he had never experienced it firsthand. At this moment, Su Xing was tremendously excited, as if he saw a glorious cultivation path waving at him.

"Since that's the case, let's take the small path..."

Although the area outside the forest looked dark, the path inside was relatively easy to navigate.

Su Xing followed Jin Congxue for a few minutes, then suddenly saw a gate flickering with rainbow lights under a tree ahead.

Jin Congxue's eyes widened, and she murmured:

"This radiance... it's likely a temporary dungeon!"

Temporary dungeons were a rare type of dungeon that would appear randomly at some place and the amount of time they remained was not fixed.

Jin Congxue approached the gate of rainbow lights and said to Su Xing behind her:

"I plan to explore this dungeon, so I can't go back to the city with you... just follow this path straight ahead..."

Before she could finish, Su Xing interjected:

"I want to go into the dungeon too..."

Jin Congxue frowned slightly and said:

"I know temporary dungeons come by chance; this represents a big opportunity for both of us."

"But the dangers inside are unknown; are you sure you want to go in? I see your level is probably not even Silver Level yet? I may not be able to protect you later..."

Despite hearing this, Su Xing firmly expressed his desire to enter, even if death were a possibility.

Seeing his determination, Jin Congxue didn't persist in persuading him but simply told Su Xing to stay close behind her.

Su Xing stepped forward and entered the gate of rainbow lights.
