Chapter 270: Chapter 173: Survive and Return to the Land of Extremes! (Second Update)_2
[The total strength enhancement ranged between 700,000 to 900,000 catties! This was the result of a year's consumption of elixirs...]
[However, after taking three pills, practitioners' strength growth nearly halted, clearly indicating that the human body had developed a resistance to the medication.]
[Compared to Heavenly King Level powerhouses, Martial Emperor Level powerhouses had much less of an increase in strength.]
[Three elixirs, on average, could increase their strength by 300,000 to 500,000 catties...]
[The overall strength enhancement of Martial Emperor Level powerhouses was less than ten percent.]
[Even so, both you and the upper echelons of the Human Race were extremely satisfied with the efficacy of these drugs!]
[Some experts even hailed this as a great creation that would change the history of the Human Race!]
[And you, were regarded by all practitioners and common people as the savior of the Human Race.]
[In the fifteenth year, you had no interest in these empty titles, you just wanted to understand just how much these elixirs could really enhance the strength of the Human Race.]
[So, for the following period, you devoted all your energy to the alchemy of elixirs.]
[Thus, two years quietly passed by.]
[In the seventeenth year, day and night, you crafted 50,000 Rebirth Pills, as well as 10,000 upgraded Rebirth Pills over these two years.]
[The main target audience for these elixirs were Grandmasters and Heavenly King Level practitioners.]
[The 50,000 standard Rebirth Pills increased the strength of nearly 15,000 Grandmaster Level practitioners by almost fifty percent.]
[After one year of healing, a total of 5,000 practitioners among these Grandmasters advanced to Heavenly King Level powerhouses!]
[Suddenly, the number of Heavenly King Level powerhouses in Great Xia Country nearly quintupled!]
[Compared to the standard Rebirth Pills, the upgraded Rebirth Pills had a much weaker effect...]
[The main reason was that Great Xia Country did not have so many veteran Heavenly King Level practitioners...]
[Because the Heavenly King Level practitioners who had advanced with the help of Rebirth Pills had only just met the Heavenly King standard, even if they then consumed the upgraded Rebirth Pills, it still wasn't enough to break through to Martial Emperor Level.]
[Therefore, only one thousand of the earliest veteran Heavenly King powerhouses had taken the Rebirth Pills.]
[In the end, in the span of one year, nearly two hundred more Martial Emperor powerhouses emerged in Great Xia Country!]
[In just one year, the number of Martial Emperor powerhouses in Great Xia also increased by more than threefold!]
[While the numbers of the Human Race powerhouses skyrocketed, you also noticed an interesting phenomenon.]
[Since a large number of powerhouses required a year of psychological therapy after taking the Rebirth Pills...]
[Psychology had become the hottest field of study among commoners in recent years.]
[Suddenly, psychology graduates had a wide range of job prospects, and countless ordinary people were clamoring to get into the field of psychology...]
Su Xing's expression became somewhat subtle upon seeing this.
With a mix of surprise and a sense of peculiarity.
"Indeed, the effects of the Rebirth Pills are no less than those of the Origin Martial Pill or the Divine Strength Pill!"
"Though it has a 'trivial' side effect, its advantages are huge since the main ingredient is abundantly available!"
"This means we can mass-produce Heavenly King and Martial Emperor Level powerhouses!"
Speaking of this, a hint of ambition flashed in Su Xing's eyes.
What he wanted was not just Martial Emperor Level powerhouses!
Twenty-five years later, hundreds of Legendary Demon Beasts descended upon Demon-Subduing Pass.
What Su Xing wanted was the ability to mass-produce Legendary Level powerhouses, which could drive away those Demonic Beasts from Demon-Subduing Pass.
And a key issue if Legendary Level powerhouses were to increase in number was...
There needed to be more Martial Emperor Level powerhouses!
After all, only if there was a larger base of Martial Emperor Level powerhouses could some of them successfully break through to Legendary!
"Tsk tsk... Let's not rush for Legendary Level powerhouses just yet, first let's stabilize the mass production of Martial Emperor powerhouses..."
Su Xing mused thoughtfully, his face barely able to suppress a smile.
He hadn't expected that his actions in this simulator would make psychology graduates the hottest employment group!
"Speaking of which, I remember psychology used to be considered a pitfall..."
Su Xing shook his head slightly, no longer dwelling on it, and turned his gaze to the simulation panel.
[In the eighteenth year, with the appearance of an additional 5,000 Heavenly King Level and over two hundred Martial Emperor Level powerhouses within just two years, the strength of the Human Race saw a significant increase!]
[Just when everyone thought you would lead the Human Race to glory... you stopped producing elixirs.]
[For you, the purpose of testing the efficacy of the Rebirth Pills had been achieved... Next, you planned to focus your primary efforts on Sword Control Technique cultivation!]
[After a few years of intermittent practice, although you had some understanding of the Sword Control Technique, you had not yet reached the entry level.]
[So, you decided to concentrate and retreat to diligently practice the Sword Control Technique!]
[In the nineteenth year, with a year of intense practice, on top of previous accumulations, you finally reached the entry level of the Sword Control Technique!]
[You were now able to perform the rudimentary Sword Flight, and you could control the sword using your energy to decapitate an enemy hundreds of meters away.]
[Although the distance for energy sword control was not long, you were quite satisfied, as you had only just begun to understand this Divine Skill.]
[The most crucial thing... using energy to control the sword looked cool! Whether it was strong or not didn't matter, only being cool was something for a lifetime!]
[The above were your inner thoughts.]
[Besides, you found that entry-level Sword Control Technique, alongside Sword Flight, only improved your speed by a mere twenty to thirty percent.]
[But, crucially, it greatly saved on Spiritual Power!]
[Originally, not knowing any evasion arts and wishing to fly, you could only rely purely on Spiritual Power to lift your body, slow and consuming a great deal of Spiritual Power!]
