Chapter 84: Chapter 84: A First-Class Sequence, The Powerful Dragon Spirit Pill
Su Xing was immediately elated at this sight.
He never expected that his simulated self would become one of the top echelons of the Great Xia Country by crafting elixirs, truly standing at the pinnacle of power in the nation.
He recalled when he first entered the simulation; even being a capitalist tycoon worth hundreds of billions, he couldn't even catch a glimpse of the faces of the Great Xia upper echelons.
"When I initially received the treatment of a third-class sequence, I had access to so many benefits. How strong must the treatment of a first-class sequence be?"
Some anticipation filled Su Xing's heart.
[At the meeting, you introduced the functions of the Dragon Spirit Pill in detail, stating that it could enhance the mental attributes and physique of magical Grandmaster Level experts, and professionals who took this elixir might even break through to Heavenly King Level!]
[After learning of the Dragon Spirit Pill's effects, the other executives were astonished and quickly assembled some veteran Grandmaster Level professionals to consume the Dragon Spirit Pills.]
[For safety, you selected ten Grandmaster Level professionals to experiment with the specific effects of the elixir.]
[You discovered that Grandmaster Level professionals could only consume one Dragon Spirit Pill per month at most, and the efficacy would gradually decrease after taking it, reducing to nearly a third of the first after ten times.]
[In the thirteenth year, among the ten Grandmaster Level professionals, the relatively weaker five doubled their strength, while the veteran Grandmasters also saw their power increase by over sixty percent.]
[After their strength increased, the ten Grandmasters took the initiative to enter the dungeon to complete the promotion missions, hoping to advance to the Heavenly King Level.]
[A week later, only five of the ten Grandmaster Level professionals returned alive, four of whom were veterans. This taught you about the dangers of the Heavenly King Level promotion tasks.]
[You learned that all Grandmaster Level professionals, besides completing the promotion tasks, also needed to undergo a Heavenly King Baptism.]
[All professionals who completed the Heavenly King Baptism would undergo a transformation at the core of their being, becoming part of the long-lived race, easily living for three to five hundred years.]
[After realizing only half of the Grandmaster Level professionals ascended to Heavenly King prowess, you couldn't help but feel a little disheartened, thinking the Dragon Spirit Pill's effects were not as strong as you imagined.]
[However, you didn't expect that those who succeeded in their promotion told you, such odds were already record-breaking. In the past, out of ten veteran Grandmasters who attempted to advance to the Heavenly King Level, only one could succeed, with a success rate of one in ten.
It was precisely because of this that among over ten thousand Grandmaster Level professionals in the Great Xia Country, there were fewer than a thousand Heavenly Kings.]
[After knowing this data, you breathed a sigh of relief, but you still felt a fifty percent chance was too low, reasoning that if those veteran Grandmasters consumed the Dragon Spirit Pill, the success rate might increase to eighty percent.]
[Next, you began gathering veteran Grandmaster Level professionals to consume the Dragon Spirit Pill.]
[In the fourteenth year, your cultivation level had remained at the second layer of Nascent Soul Stage, and you felt it was becoming increasingly difficult to advance. The main reason was the lack of Spiritual Energy; even consuming one Dragon Spirit Pill every month, you had yet to breakthrough to the third layer of Nascent Soul Stage.]
[Consequently, you stopped trying to enhance your Cultivation Level and instead tried to boost your Divine Sense.]
Su Xing nodded slightly when he saw this and murmured,
"If Cultivation Level is temporarily difficult to enhance, perhaps improving Divine Sense will be the right direction…"
Su Xing had limited understanding of Divine Sense, having only briefly encountered a few descriptions in the later sections of the Changchun Technique from the experiences of his Cultivation predecessors.
All cultivators possess Divine Sense, but the Divine Sense of low-level cultivators is so weak that it's almost negligible. It is only when they reach the Golden Core Stage that cultivators' Divine Sense begins to take shape, and Nascent Soul cultivators can truly utilize their Divine Sense. When they reach the Divinity Transformation Realm, their Divine Sense can even extend up to a hundred zhang!
Improving one's Divine Sense brings numerous benefits. Within the range covered by Divine Sense, every blade of grass and tree can be thoroughly perceived, and no slight movement can escape the cultivator's notice.
After strengthening Divine Sense, one can cultivate certain Divine Skills that utilize Divine Sense to kill unseen and undetected.
For Su Xing, Divine Sense has an even greater use.
Alchemy!
With a stronger Divine Sense, Su Xing's mastery over the elixirs in the Pill Furnace will rise to a higher level, the rate of alchemical errors will decrease, and the chances of refining superior Spirit Pills will increase.
"What a pity, the cultivation of Divine Sense should have corresponding techniques, but currently, I have no such techniques and can only rely on personal cultivation or consume Elixirs to strengthen it..."
Su Xing murmured.
"Fortunately, I have Soul Condensing Pills, and my Divine Sense has never fallen behind in its enhancement..."
In the past, as Su Xing improved his cultivation level, he also simultaneously enhanced his Divine Sense. This is why, shortly after entering the Nascent Soul Stage, his Divine Sense had already reached a breadth of ten zhang, almost catching up with mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators.
"So, in this pseudo-simulation, I still need to focus on improving my Alchemy Skills and Divine Sense..."
Thinking this, Su Xing continued the simulation.
[Following that, you consume three Soul Condensing Pills daily, continuously expanding the strength and range of your Divine Sense. Thankfully, you had previously plundered enough Condensing Spirit Grass from the Descending Sect to sustain daily consumption.]
[In the same year, with your assistance, the Great Xia Military gains an additional one hundred and fifty Heavenly King Level professionals! Accompanied by Grandmaster Level professionals, they head to Demon-Subduing Pass.]
[In the fifteenth year, you persist in cultivating your Divine Sense, and after a year of relentless tempering and strengthening, the range of your Divine Sense further expands to eleven zhang.]
[In the sixteenth year, you cultivate your Divine Sense, and its range reaches twelve zhang.]
[In the seventeenth year, feeling that the speed of your Divine Sense cultivation is too slow, you start looking for a way to develop a new kind of Elixir that can increase Divine Sense, the Soul Condensing Pill!]
[The Soul Condensing Pill is a mid-grade Elixir, and unlike the nourishing effects of the Soul Condensing Pills, it focuses more on increasing the strength of a cultivator's Divine Sense.]
[The primary component in the refinement of Soul Condensing Pills is a type of wood known as Condensing Spirit Wood, an incredibly mysterious wood with a natural fragrance. Merely smelling it invigorates one's spirit. If one carries Condensing Spirit Wood at all times, it can slowly strengthen Divine Sense. It can be regarded as a true celestial treasure.]
[The rarity of Condensing Spirit Wood exceeds even that of Dragon Spirit Grass, not solely because of its powerful effects but also because it comes from the main trunk of the Condensing Spirit Tree, which grows a foot every ten years. A ten-foot-tall Condensing Spirit Tree requires a century to cultivate.]
[Fortunately, when you and Luo Shuying raided the treasury of the Descending Sect, you found a three-zhang-long piece of Condensing Spirit Wood, which is now in your Storage Ring.]
[Thus, you take a small section of the Condensing Spirit Wood and begin refining the Soul Condensing Pills.]
[The refinement of Soul Condensing Pills is challenging, but thankfully your Alchemy Skills have already made significant progress. You not only learned the near mid-grade Dragon Spirit Pills but also mastered the skill of multitasking in alchemy, which led to rapid progress in the refinement of Soul Condensing Pills.]
