Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!
Chapter 538: Chapter 249: Treasure Vermilion Bird Tail Feather, Achieving Great Achievement in Body Refinement State! (Two-in-one, 10,000 words)_5

Su Xing selected several thousand unused low-grade magic artifacts and talismans and exchanged them for simulated energy.

When the simulated energy was sufficient, Su Xing silently recited:

"I choose to bring out Body Refinement Great Achievement cultivation level... as well as the insight of Thunder's Origin (Minor Achievement)!"

As the words fell, a prompt sound came from the simulator.

[Ding, you have successfully brought out Body Refinement Mahayana Cultivation Level, spending 2 billion points of energy, with 1.53553 billion points remaining.]

[You have successfully brought out Thunder's Origin Insight (Minor Achievement), spending 1.5 billion points of energy, with 35.53 million points remaining.]

As the prompt sound ended, two streams of mysterious energy surged into Su Xing's body.

The first thing Su Xing felt was a tremendous increase in his physical strength.

This energy continuously altered Su Xing's physical strength. The entire process was exceptionally comfortable, without the usual pain that Body Refinement cultivators endure.

It was as if this cultivation level originally belonged to Su Xing...

Meanwhile, above the ruins where Su Xing was, within a hundred-mile radius, thunder billowed, seeming to prepare for a massive storm.

Yet, the storm ultimately did not descend.

Moments later, when Su Xing slowly opened his eyes, his own strength had already reached the Mahayana Body Refinement level!

Feeling the sudden surge of power within him, Su Xing's eyes carried a touch of amazement.

"The Heavenly Thunder Physique has enhanced the upper limits of my physical body..."

"Now, with the terrifying power of thirty mountains, even without relying on any other means... I can fight mid to late-stage Demon Saints!"

If he paired it with the Body-Protecting Sword Aura, Su Xing was confident that he could even battle cultivators at the Tribulation Crossing stage!

As for the higher Immortal Realm...

To be honest, Su Xing did not have confidence. The gap between Immortal Realm and the Transcendence Tribulation Stage, though just a single realm apart,

was indeed a true divide between the mortal and the immortal!

The disparity was enormous and self-evident!

Unless Su Xing mastered the Heavenly Sword Arts to perfection and Body-Protecting Sword Aura to perfection, he would not be confident to challenge Immortals at the Mahayana level...

The rewards this time brought about change for Su Xing, not just pushing his cultivation to a new level.

With a thought, Su Xing summoned a purple glow from his palm.

"Tsk tsk, the minor Daoist Divine Skill, Palm Thunder, I've learned it without a teacher!"

Su Xing exclaimed in admiration.

Thunder's Origin was the fundamental element of all thunder in the world, directly connected to the Great Dao of Thunder.

It was no exaggeration to say that with this Thunder's Origin, Su Xing's speed in learning thunder divine skills would be much faster, and his Spiritual Energy techniques infused with thunder would also contain thunder.

It had a massive restraining effect on monsters usually considered evil.

"Phew... After reaching Body Refinement Mahayana, the next step is to head to the Little Qingyun Realm and enter the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains..."

"Even if the Tiger Immortal captures me, I can simulate for several more decades, exploring the Three Thousand Worlds, making an effort to enhance my Body Refinement cultivation level."

Su Xing murmured to himself.

"Oh right, since I'm here in the Immortal Martial Era Instance, I might as well dig up a couple of alien metal veins..."

Su Xing recalled from his memory that within a thousand miles of the Wan Mu Sect ruins lay two fourth-rank alien metal veins.

Without hesitation, Su Xing used Sword Flight, reaching the veins' location moments later.

Holding the Ink Ice Sword, Su Xing wrapped it in Origin Force and began mining underground.

In regular veins, alien metals were quite dispersed, so Su Xing needed to excavate over a large area within a one-mile radius to extract an entire vein.

Moreover, high-rank exotic metals were often deeply buried underground.

Thus, Su Xing spent five days excavating two alien metal veins, digging up about three thousand cubic meters of fourth-rank exotic metal ore.

These three thousand cubic meters of alien metal ore were not very pure, worth about 3 billion energy points if directly exchanged. If given to Jin Congxue for refinement, about 300 tons of fourth-rank alien metal could be refined.

Converted, that would be nearly 6 billion simulated energy!

"Phew, just one week and I've earned 6 billion simulated energy?"

"The speed is quite fast!"

"But I wonder how long it will take Jin Congxue to refine these alien metals? I should ask her to replace more profession users specifically for refining alien metals!"

Currently, alien metals were Su Xing's largest source of energy, so he planned to focus the main business of the Tarot Society entirely on processing and mining alien metals.

Glancing at the time, it was already the early morning of March 24.

Su Xing then prepared to leave the instance and return to Blue Star.

At noon, Su Xing met with Jin Congxue as scheduled.

After the two had a meal, Su Xing took out several storage rings and handed them to Jin Congxue.

Upon seeing the contents of the storage rings, Jin Congxue was immediately astonished and asked:

"Are these the alien metals mined by the seniors? Gasp... These are all fourth-rank alien metals? Where did you replace them?"

Hearing this, Su Xing gave a mysterious smile and said:

"Ahem, that's an organizational secret, I can't tell you!"

Jin Congxue coquettishly rolled her eyes after hearing his reply, then suddenly asked mysteriously:

"Su Xing... Can you tell the seniors to let me join your organization?"

Seeing the desire in Jin Congxue's look, Su Xing was momentarily stunned.

Let Jin Congxue join the Heavenly Secret Pavilion...

But the Heavenly Secret Pavilion did not actually exist; it was created by Su Xing, composed entirely of puppets, specifically for gathering energy for himself!

Seeing Jin Congxue's eager eyes, Su Xing didn't have the heart to refuse outright, so he said:

"Ahem, Sister Xue, your strength is too low..."

"Our organization is very dangerous! For the sake of your safety... I wouldn't suggest you join!"

Hearing this, Jin Congxue rolled her eyes again, then suddenly revealed a hint of aura, saying proudly:
