Chapter 82: Chapter 82 Dragon Spirit Pill, I’m Done Pretending, I’m a Time Traveler!

Translator: 549690339

The Essence-Nourishing Pill had little effect on enhancing Su Xing’s Cultivation Level now that he was at the Nascent Soul Stage.

To maintain rapid growth in his Cultivation Level, taking more advanced elixirs was a good choice.

“If I remember correctly, the Dragon Spirit Pill is one of the top-tier among the lower-grade elixirs, and its primary ingredient is a Spiritual Medicine called Dragon Spirit Grass…”

Su Xing narrowed his eyes, continuing to simulate further.

[You realize that to enhance your Cultivation Level, you need to refine a new elixir—the Dragon Spirit Pill! The main material for this pill is Dragon Spirit Grass, and coincidentally, you have planted more than ten stalks of twenty-year-old Dragon Spirit Grass in your Spirit Field.]

[But just over ten stalks of Dragon Spirit Grass are not enough for you to master this elixir; thus, you sketched the appearance of Dragon Spirit Grass and had the Shadow Protector help you replace this herb in the treasury.]

[A few days later, the Shadow Protector successfully obtained more than a dozen stalks of Dragon Spirit Grass from the treasury for you, informing you that the treasury of the Descending Sect also had limited quantities, only a few hundred stalks, and that you needed to pay contribution points within the sect to exchange for them.]

[Although a few hundred stalks of Dragon Spirit Grass weren’t many, they were already more than enough for you. You spent all the contribution points you had accumulated over the years to exchange for all the Dragon Spirit Grass.]

[After that, you began attempting to refine the Dragon Spirit Grass.]

[In the first month, you refined thirty batches of Dragon Spirit Pills, all of which failed. The Dragon Spirit Grass required more precise control of fire and Spiritual Power, making it the most difficult elixir you had attempted to refine so far.]

[In the second month, you refined thirty batches of Dragon Spirit Pills, succeeding with two batches, but the effects of the Dragon Spirit Grass were unclear, and you didn’t dare to take them.]

[In the third month, you refined thirty batches of Dragon Spirit Pills, succeeding with six batches. The success rate reached twenty percent, and your professional panel showed that you had gained basic proficiency in the refinement of Dragon Spirit Pills.]

[Over the next half-year, you refined Dragon Spirit Pills daily, and the success rate reached fifty percent.]

[At this point, you still had over two hundred stalks of Dragon Spirit Grass in your hands, but you didn’t refine them immediately; instead, you reserved them.]

[In the ninth year, one day, the Shadow Protector came to you looking somewhat downcast.]

[The Shadow Protector told you that although their world had fought with all its might, it was still a failure; the power of the Foreign Race was just too strong, almost beyond comparison.]

[The allies who once filled their hearts with hope now immersed in deep despair. Although you had long known the outcome and that managing to hold on for an additional year was already quite an achievement, you still felt sad for the Shadow Protector.]

[You gave the Shadow Protector an encouraging hug, telling her that if she wished, she could consider Blue Star as her second home and fight for it.]

[After hearing your words, Shadow Protector offered a pained smile, expressing that her strength was too weak, that even if she helped you, she would ultimately be powerless against the Foreign Race.]

[You said nothing more, merely taking out a newly developed Dragon Spirit Pill for the Shadow Protector to try.]

[The Shadow Protector did not hesitate much and swallowed the Dragon Spirit Pill immediately; moments later, a look of astonishment appeared in her eyes, indicating that the pill was potent, and it actually made her feel a trace of strength improvement.]

[At the same time, the Shadow Protector stated that such elixirs could even help those of the Grandmaster Level in your world to become stronger, perhaps even giving them a slim chance to reach the Heavenly King Level!]

[The Shadow Protector looked somewhat disheartened as she said, what difference would it make even if there were a few more Heavenly King Level powerhouses? It would still not change the fate of the world being destroyed by the Foreign Race.]

[Yet you smiled calmly and countered: what if there were over a hundred Heavenly King Level strong individuals?]

[The Shadow Protector clearly paused after hearing your words, carefully contemplating before saying that if hundreds more Heavenly King Level warriors could be added, perhaps they really could hold on longer against the beast invasion.]

[At the same time, the Shadow Protector’s expression appeared somewhat sorrowful, indicating that if they had possessed these elixirs earlier, perhaps her homeland wouldn’t have been destroyed so easily.]

[Having experienced the apocalypse yourself, you naturally knew how terrifying the strength of those colossal beasts was, at the very least not something a mere hundred more Heavenly King Level warriors could resolve.]

[But you were clear that this was a significant improvement; previously, your elixirs could only affect Master Level professionals, but now you could make Grandmaster Level professionals stronger, even turning them into Heavenly King Level professionals.]

Su Xing felt a surge of excitement at this. With Nascent Soul Stage strength equivalent to Grandmaster Level professionals, if these Dragon Spirit Pills could indeed rapidly enhance a group of Heavenly King Level professionals for the Human Race, then the apocalypse’s arrival could definitely be delayed once more.]

[“The effects of the Dragon Spirit Pills should be similar to Essence-Nourishing Pills, only much stronger. They can increase the Spiritual Power Cultivation Level of Nascent Soul cultivators. Even Grandmaster Level professionals could have their mental attributes enhanced.”]

[“And with the mental attributes of spellcasting professionals enhanced, the chances of successfully completing advancement tasks become greater… Particularly for veteran Grandmaster Level professionals, it may greatly increase their chances of succeeding in promotion tasks!”]

Su Xing’s eyes lit up.

Unlike cultivators, professionals had the advantage of rapidly increasing their strength over a short period by killing monsters to earn a large amount of experience points and leveling up.]

But the death rate for professionals undertaking major rank-up tasks at each large tier was very high, which meant many professionals at Master Level 30 had insufficient strength to break through to Grandmaster Level.]

And many professionals at Grandmaster Level 30 were unable to break through to Heavenly King Level.]

The purpose of the elixirs Su Xing refined was exactly this: to improve their strength so they could succeed in advancing!]

[“Perhaps, this time around in the simulation, the Human Race will gain a batch of Heavenly King Level professionals, and maybe they will be able to resist for a longer time…”]

Su Xing took a deep breath, eager to continue the simulation.]

[You once again extended an invitation to the Shadow Protector, hoping she would join you in defecting from the Descending Sect.]

[The Shadow Protector struggled for a long time but still rejected you. She believed that even so, the Human Race couldn’t possibly withstand the giant beasts’ attacks, and defecting would be tantamount to seeking death.]

[Having no choice, you said to her: Then I wish you good luck, Luo Shuying!]

[After you uttered her name, the Shadow Protector froze; in disbelief, she asked how you knew her name, pointing out that she had been part of the Descending Sect for decades using ‘Shadow’ as her alias, and no one had ever known her full name.]

[You told the Shadow Protector that she had told you her name herself.]

[Of course, the Shadow Protector didn’t want to believe you, so you made up a story.]

[You told her that you possess the ability to travel through time, constantly endeavoring to save the world the two of you inhabited. As for the name Luo Shuying, she had told you herself.]

[This story, which you didn’t even believe yourself, ultimately convinced the Shadow Protector.]

[The Shadow Protector said that compared to an unfathomably dark future, she would rather believe in a savior traveling through the timeline.]
