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

Su Xing was taken aback after hearing this.

He certainly knew the value of this Spirit Rice. For Cultivators, it was a premium cultivation resource.

And for other professionals, consuming this Spirit Rice over a long period could enhance their physical fitness.

In other words, it was like those items in web game novels that could directly improve the physical attributes, strength, and the like of ordinary professionals.

But Su Xing had only spent 50,000 energy to get fifty catties of Spirit Rice, which translated to ten million Great Xia Coins.

Yet how could these fifty catties of Spirit Rice be worth fifty million Great Xia Coins?

At this time, Jin Congxue said,

"Last night, I had our guild's appraiser estimate the value of this Spirit Rice."

"For ordinary professionals, this Spirit Rice is no less valuable than the meat of powerful Demonic Beasts, a treasure that nourishes the body."

"But the most precious indeed is the effect this Spirit Rice has on ordinary people! It can prolong life, slow down aging... it can even cure diseases!"

"I think there will be many wealthy people willing to pay one million for a catty of Spirit Rice to give it a try... A catty of Spirit Rice is enough for an ordinary person to eat for half a month, and this thing is almost impossible to replicate. It's a treasure only the two of us have. Wouldn't you say it's precious?"

Su Xing understood after hearing Jin Congxue's explanation.

The saying went, rarity bred value; this Spirit Rice was now his exclusive monopolized product, naturally making it precious.

Moreover, the life-prolonging effects of the Spirit Rice on ordinary people were too tempting.

Su Xing nodded slightly, but then suddenly thought of something and said,

"Congxue, it's best if you use this Spirit Rice for yourself... even if you want to give it to someone, never say it's from me! Please keep it a secret for me!"

Seeing how serious Su Xing was, Jin Congxue knew he wasn't joking. Taking the Spirit Rice, she said,

"Rest assured, I'll keep it a secret for you! As for these fifty catties of Spirit Rice, let's just say it covers the fifty million Great Xia Coins, how's that?"

Su Xing nodded in agreement.

He didn't want Jin Congxue to reveal his identity because he was afraid the mysterious organization would target him.

After all, in the simulated world, the fate that befell him after the exposure of the Spirit Rice was quite tragic.

But in the future, if Su Xing was ever short on money, he could sell some to Jin Congxue.

After all, he had more than three thousand catties of Spirit Grains in his personal Spirit Field Blessed Land, which would be ready for harvest in half a year.

Su Xing then said,

"Congxue, I want to purchase a batch of white-quality equipment from your Jin Merchant Guild; let's consider this one billion as payment for the purchase."

Su Xing handed his card over to Jin Congxue. Although curious about why Su Xing wanted so much white-quality equipment, she nodded and agreed.

"I can buy it for you, but... you have to stay with me in Jinling City for a week. I want to do my duty as a host!"

Jin Congxue blinked playfully as she spoke.

Su Xing naturally agreed, as purchasing equipment would take some time anyway.

In the following week, Su Xing stayed in Jinling City, where Jin Congxue was very hospitable.

Thanks to Jin Congxue's introduction, Su Xing managed to procure over one hundred thousand pieces of white-quality equipment from the Jin Merchant Guild at the lowest price of 900 pieces each.

On December 3rd, 2023, in the New Era, Su Xing returned to Kyoto University.

The first thing Su Xing did when he got back to his dormitory was to convert all the white-quality equipment into simulated world energy.

Over one hundred thousand pieces of equipment were exchanged for a total of 620,000 points of energy, making Su Xing wealthier than he had ever been before.

"Sigh, now I'm a debtor with a small goal of debt…"

Su Xing bitterly smiled, realizing he must find a way to generate income. Otherwise, if he kept borrowing money, he would soon run out of funds to purchase energy.

"Currently, the Spirit Grains in the Blessed Land seem to be a stable way to make money... but it will take half a year for the Spirit Grains to mature, and these 600,000 energy points are likely not enough for even a few simulations."

With a thought, Su Xing started a new round of simulation.

"Begin the simulation!"

[This simulation consumed 1300 energy points, leaving 622,680 points remaining. Unlimited simulations remaining.]

[Simulation starting!]

[Drawing a white talent costs 100 energy points, a green talent costs 1000 energy points, proceed with the draw?]

"Draw the green talent!"

[Ding, congratulations on obtaining the green talent, Perseverance!]

[Perseverance]: Your tenacity is several times that of an ordinary person. When facing difficulties, you will confront them head-on and never give up easily.

Upon seeing this talent, Su Xing's eyes brightened. Though the talent couldn't directly enhance his strength, its usefulness in the simulation couldn't be ignored.

[In the dormitory, you realize you are in a simulation.]

[You first return to the Spirit Field Blessed Land and check on the chickens you purchased a few days ago to see if they have survived.]

[Unsurprisingly, not a single one of the chickens you purchased last time survived.]

[After having a hearty meal, you went to the market and bought a few hundred chickens to raise in the Spirit Field Blessed Land.]

[You start studying Li Fire Alchemy, which describes the methods to make three hundred and sixty types of elixirs, most of which you do not understand.]

[You could only choose a few low-level elixirs to manufacture.]

[You chose the Fasting Pill and the Nourishing Face Pill, both of which are first-grade elixirs with the simplest methods of production.]

[The main ingredient for the Fasting Pill is Spirit Rice, along with some herbs. One pill enables an ordinary person not to eat for a month without feeling hunger.]

[Fortunately, except for the relatively precious Spirit Rice, the other ingredients for the Fasting Pill could be purchased in this world.]

[You took out the worn Alchemy Furnace ready to begin alchemy, but soon encountered your first problem. You had no fire.]

[You tried using a lighter to ignite it, but the flame from an ordinary lighter was not hot enough and lacked Spiritual Energy, making it unsuitable for making elixirs.]

[Thus, you took out Li Fire Alchemy again to study it and quickly found a flame spell called Li Fire within.]

[The Jade Slip records that Li Fire is a simplified version of the ancient divine fire, Southern Bright Li Fire. It is difficult to cultivate, and only those with great determination can master it.]

[However, you fear no difficulties, so you began to delve into the Li Fire spell.]

[In the first year, you spent four hours every day comprehending the Li Fire spell. This continued for a whole year without gaining entry.]

[During this time, Wang Qingxuan came to find you, and after one night, she joined the Descending Sect.]

[In the second year, you increased the time spent on comprehending Li Fire to six hours every day. Another whole year passed, and you still couldn't grasp its essence.]

[You remained unwavering, never giving up. In the third year, you spent eight hours every day on it. After half a year, you finally mastered the rudiments of the Li Fire spell.]

[Overjoyed, you comprehended the Li Fire spell day and night. After two and a half years, you managed to gain entry.]

[In the sixth year, you successfully mastered the basics of the Li Fire spell, able to summon a strand of Li Fire in your palm.]

[This Li Fire was extremely hot, incinerating anything it touched instantly. Gold would melt into liquid within seconds in the Li Fire, yet the fire did not harm you.]

[You realized that Li Fire could not only be used for alchemy but also as a weapon to fend off enemies!]
