Chapter 10: First Obtaining a Spirit Stone, Embarking on the Path of Immortality!

Jin Congxue hesitated for a moment, then told you that the Demon Suppressing Pass is the lifeline of the human race. The human race has an extremely powerful enemy, and the situation at the Demon Suppressing Pass is not optimistic at the moment.

You wanted to ask more, but Jin Congxue refused to continue.

The next day, you sent Jin Congxue to the Demon Suppressing Pass.

A month later, you attended Jin Congxue's funeral. You felt neither joy nor sorrow, only a desire to improve your strength as much as possible.

You decided to sell all your assets, obtaining over 50 billion in cash.

You used this money to purchase a large number of items to strengthen your body, aiming to break through to the second level of the Body Tempering cultivation: the Bone Forging stage.

Three years passed, and your Body Tempering cultivation steadily advanced, but you always felt that you were just a step away from the Bone Forging stage. However, for some unknown reason, you could not break through.

Finally, the day you remembered arrived.

A massive beast that blocked out the sun appeared in the sky above Daxia.

The entire Daxia Kingdom was filled with terrified civilians, and several golden figures flew into the sky to attack the beast!

They failed, and the sky-blocking beast swallowed the entire Daxia Kingdom in one bite.

You opened your eyes wide before being swallowed, giving the beast the middle finger.

You died, at the age of thirty-six!

You activated your innate ability, "Unwilling to Die"!

You were swallowed into the beast's stomach, where you discovered that not everyone died immediately.

The beast's stomach was exceptionally spacious, like a world.

The ground began to tremble, and an unknown energy started to corrode all life and matter around it.

Your eyes were digested into a part of the beast, and the "Unwilling to Die" ability became ineffective!

Ding, the simulation has ended!

You can choose one of the following rewards: "I'm Bald, But Not Stronger" (Innate Ability), "Half-Step Bone Forging" (Cultivation), "Second Level Qi Condensation" (Cultivation), "Two Half Spirit Stones" (Item).

Here it is! Successfully brought the spirit stones out!

Xingke suppressed his excitement and checked the costs of these rewards.

"I'm Bald, But Not Stronger": White innate ability, priced at 1000 energy.

"Half-Step Bone Forging": Cultivation, priced at 500 energy.

"Second Level Qi Condensation": Cultivation, priced at 100 energy.

"Two Half Spirit Stones": Item, priced at 2500 energy.

Xingke touched his thick hair and didn't even look at the ridiculous innate ability.

Instead, the "Half-Step Bone Forging" cultivation caught his attention.

From the simulator's description, he was really just a step away from breaking through to the Bone Forging stage in this simulation, but he couldn't break through.

Perhaps it was due to insufficient talent, or the lack of body-tempering techniques, or suitable body-tempering herbs?

Xingke didn't know, but the spirit stones he most desired were right in front of him.

"Surprisingly cheap..."

Xingke raised an eyebrow. He understood that these spirit stones might not be particularly valuable, but they were extremely rare in the real world.

"Exchange for two half spirit stones!"

Ding, you have chosen to bring back the spirit stones from the simulation, consuming 2500 energy points, leaving 18940 energy points.

Three thumb-sized spirit stones appeared in Xingke's hand.

The spirit stones were crystal clear and smooth like jade, and just being near them made one feel refreshed and invigorated.

Two of the spirit stones were the size of a thumb, and one was the size of a pinky, which had been partially digested in the simulation.

"By this calculation... a spirit stone should be worth around 1000 energy points..."

Xingke began to study the spirit stones in his hand.

He first asked the simulator about the price of recycling spirit stones.

Ding, detected one low-grade spirit stone, recycling price 100 energy, do you want to recycle?

Xingke: ???

What the hell!

It costs 1000 energy to bring it out, but the recycling price is only 100 energy. This simulator is too greedy!

"Damn, I wish there were no second-hand dealers to make a profit!"

Xingke complained.

He then held the half spirit stone in his hand, sat cross-legged, and began to practice the Eternal Spring Technique.

A gentle aura flowed from the spirit stone, entering Xingke's body through his palm, making him feel refreshed and invigorated.

"Whoa~ This is the feeling of absorbing spiritual energy?"

Xingke's eyes widened. After the spiritual energy entered his body, he clearly felt subtle changes in his body.

Xingke practiced for an hour before feeling that his meridians could no longer absorb more spiritual energy.

At the same time, the spirit stone in his hand had shrunk by about one-twentieth.

"Indeed, one spirit stone should be enough for me to practice for half a month, right?"

Xingke's eyes were filled with longing, but he did not choose to continue absorbing.

Because these spirit stones had greater uses!

In the following week, Xingke continued to level grind and farm equipment, earning over 500,000 in just a week.

However, during this period, Xingke did not choose to continue absorbing the spirit stones for cultivation.

That day, the cooldown time for Xingke's simulator refreshed.

Xingke took a deep breath, holding the spirit stones in his hand, ready to test an idea.

"Start simulation!"

Simulation consumes 600 energy points, leaving 18340 energy points, no remaining simulation attempts.

Simulation begins!

Drawing a white innate ability costs 100 energy points, drawing a green innate ability costs 1000 energy points, do you want to draw?

"Draw a white innate ability!"

Ding, congratulations on obtaining the white innate ability: Fitness Enthusiast

Fitness Enthusiast: You have a natural talent for body tempering.

Xingke was stunned for a moment after seeing the innate ability, then he murmured:

"Could it be... that this Fitness Enthusiast is a body-tempering innate ability?"

This sudden innate ability disrupted Xingke's plans, but he still decided to simulate and test it.

You are in your dormitory, staring at the two half spirit stones in your hand.

You begin to absorb the spiritual energy from the spirit stones. The spiritual energy enters your body, and your Qi Condensation cultivation slightly improves.

For the next month, you spend your days leveling up new female students and earning money, and your free time is spent absorbing the spirit stones and converting them into cultivation.

Due to having an excellent Qi Condensation technique and sufficient spirit stones, your Qi Condensation cultivation rapidly improves.

In just a month, your cultivation has reached the fourth level of Qi Condensation.

On November 10, 2023, you left the Capital University of Technology and bought a high-speed train ticket to Jinling City.

The next evening, you successfully arrived in Jinling City.

You spent a week searching in the western outskirts of Jinling City, hoping to find the dungeon that Jin Congxue mentioned.

But you found nothing, and you did not find the "Qingyun Spirit Field" dungeon.

You did not give up and continued searching.

A few days later, you encountered a woman in the western outskirts of Jinling City. She was extremely beautiful but very cold.

A premonition arose in your heart; this woman must be Jin Congxue!
