Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!

```

One billion turned into two billion, even Buffett hasn't made that kind of return, has he!?

Thinking of this, Su Xing felt somewhat excited.

"But if I could refine all of them and convert them into simulation energy, that would be best... I just don't know if there will be enough time?"

After all, Su Xing was still waiting to exchange the simulation rewards...

So Su Xing asked Jin Congxue if she was available.

But Jin Congxue said she was not in Kyoto at the moment and that it might take a few days for them to meet.

Hearing this, Su Xing pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said:

"If we wait a few more days, there might not be enough time, and we could miss the chance to choose simulation rewards..."

"It seems I'll have to absorb a batch of exotic metal ores first..."

Thus, Su Xing scheduled a time with Jin Congxue, preparing to give her the exotic metal ores worth 10 billion energy for purification and refinement.

Meanwhile, Su Xing prepared to absorb one-third of the exotic metal ores in front of him into simulation energy for use in the coming period.

The simulator humanely selected one-third of the energy material.

[Ding, detected an energy-containing material worth 5 billion energy, do you wish to absorb it?]

"Yes!"

Su Xing silently declared.

Soon, one-third of the pile of exotic metal ores vanished before him, and Su Xing packed up the remaining exotic metal ores to save for Jin Congxue's use.

"Skipping the refinement process, although it will mean half the energy, can save a lot of time!"

"Perhaps, I should try going to the Tarot Society's mine instance in the future and attempt to directly absorb the unprocessed exotic metal ores... maybe I'll get even more simulation energy!"

Su Xing contemplated.

Afterward, with the newfound abundance of simulation energy, Su Xing was ready to choose the rewards he had earned in the previous simulation.

"I choose to take out the Spirit Stones and the Spring Dew Pure Water..."

As his words ended, the simulator beeped in his ear.

[You have successfully brought out 220,000 Low-grade Spirit Stones, 5,000 Medium-grade Spirit Stones, 300 High-grade Spirit Stones, spending 3 billion energy, remaining energy is 347.56 million points.]

[You have successfully brought out 240 drops of Spring Dew Pure Water, spending 24 million energy, remaining energy is 323.56 million points.]

When the simulator's tone ended, Su Xing nodded slightly and murmured:

"Still over 300 million energy left... should be enough for the next two weeks of simulation!"

Immediately, a large pile of Spirit Stones appeared on the open ground in front of the thatched cottage.

The Spirit Stones were of varying sizes, and next to them, there was a small jade bottle.

Su Xing hurriedly picked up the jade bottle and nodded:

"Not bad, Spring Dew Pure Water... with this thing, I'll be able to concoct Void Refinement Pills later!"

After stowing away the jade bottle, Su Xing looked at the small mountain of Spirit Stones piled before his eyes, his gaze shining!

A good 220,000 Low-grade Spirit Stones, several thousands of Medium-grade Spirit Stones, and hundreds of High-grade Spirit Stones!

"Combined, that's worth over 300,000 Spirit Stones!"

"Damn, I've scrimped and saved up till now and have less than a thousand Spirit Stones... Now the amount has increased by more than three hundredfold!"

Looking at the Spirit Stones before him, Su Xing suddenly felt like laughing foolishly.

"With so many Spirit Stones... the practice for reaching the Return to Void Realm shouldn't be a problem, should it?"

Su Xing felt some anticipation.

As it's known, the path of cultivation becomes increasingly difficult, and for cultivators in the Return to Void Realm, it's completely normal to spend decades in seclusion just to break through a minor boundary.

If Su Xing had enough resources, he could shorten this time by several times, even up to tenfold!

Su Xing carefully stowed away the Spirit Stones— he couldn't bring himself to spend even one.

Using them during the simulation was the real deal!

"Phew... Next, I still have to work hard for the breakthrough to the Return to Void Realm!"

"And I need to continue Alchemy!"

Su Xing muttered, although by now he could be considered a small tycoon in the Cultivation World.

But he still maintained a calm heart... diligently farming, developing steadfastly and securely!

Thus, in the next six days, Su Xing spent his time Alchemy, farming, and collecting Spiritual Liquid.

During this time, Su Xing took some time to meet Jin Congxue and gave her the 600-plus cubic meters of exotic metal ores.

This gave Jin Congxue quite a shock.

You must understand these were no common first or second-tier exotic metals found in the market.

These were high-level exotic metals of the third and fourth tiers!

Though Jin Congxue didn't know how Su Xing got them, she still kept his secret.

She even released information to the outside, claiming to purchase high-tier exotic metal ores and fabricated some orders.

Thus, the source of Su Xing's exotic metal ores became legitimate.

Su Xing just had to wait for two to three weeks. Once the exotic metals were refined and purified, he would have a full 20 billion energy!

"Tsk tsk... 20 billion energy!"

"What to do next? It's time to plan for reaching the Great Perfection of the Return to Void Realm..."

"And learn a few more spells, to improve my combat abilities..."

Su Xing was already imagining how he would use the future simulation energy.

After concocting the pills for the new week, Su Xing headed to the villa.

Jin Congxue was not around this week; to ensure the safety of the exotic metal ores, she personally went to monitor the instance.

So Su Xing picked up the goods, laid down the Elixirs, and then returned to the dorm to enter the Spirit Field Blessed Land.

Converting the week's goods into simulation energy, Su Xing's energy instantly topped 4 billion, making him a bona fide tycoon.

On the afternoon of September 16, 2024, Su Xing started a new round of simulation on time.

But before the simulation, Su Xing opened up the talent lottery system, intending to draw out the "Master of Success" talent.
