Chapter 259: Chapter 169: Su Xing’s Small Goal, Sword Pointing to the Broken Void Realm! (5k)_3
[It happened that a Demon Emperor rushed onto the city wall.]
[You didn’t hesitate; Origin Force enveloped the Ink Ice Sword, and then you swung it out in a single slash!]
[This slash directly cut the Demon Emperor in half. You collected the flesh essence of the Demon Emperor and began to check the injuries of the surrounding soldiers.]
[To your surprise, you found that among the soldiers who had been sneak attacked, there was your good brother Yu Yan!]
[After more than ten years of not seeing each other, not only had Yu Yan not died at the Demon-Subduing Pass, but he had even broken through to become a Heavenly King-level master!]
Su Xing, seeing this, slightly lifted the corners of his mouth and said,
“Sure enough, that Fatty Yu guy is not so easy to kill!”
“Seeing that he’s still alive at the Demon-Subduing Pass after ten years puts me at ease…”
Su Xing sighed emotionally.
At this moment, more than a month had passed since their graduation.
Yu Yan had also successfully joined the Demon-Subduing Pass, fighting for the Great Xia Military.
During this time, Su Xing occasionally kept in touch with Yu Yan. After experiencing the rigors of the battlefield, Su Xing could clearly feel that Yu Yan had become much more steady.
Previously, through Jin Congxue, Su Xing, in the name of the Jin Merchant Guild, had sponsored the soldiers at the Demon-Subduing Pass.
Among them, he gave Yu Yan several pieces of purple epic gear.
Yu Yan was one of his few friends; naturally, Su Xing didn’t want anything to happen to him.
Therefore, he helped as much as he could. These few pieces of purple equipment greatly enhanced Yu Yan’s survival ability.
“Speaking of… next year at this time, won’t my little sister be graduating too?”
Su Xing sighed. Over the past year, he had been busy with simulations and improving his strength, not even going home for the holidays.
Su Xiaomei was also studying at a top-tier school in the south. Now that Su Xing was well-off, he would occasionally send money to Su Xiaomei.
The Jin Merchant Guild had a considerable influence in the south.
Therefore, Su Xing even asked the Jin Merchant Guild to employ Su Xiaomei, having her perform some safe tasks while giving very generous rewards.
This had also sped up Su Xiaomei’s growth in strength considerably.
Recalling all that had happened in the past, Su Xing’s eyes took on a complicated expression.
How he wished he could stay by his family and friends’ side every day.
But the apocalypse weighed on Su Xing’s heart like a great mountain.
What Su Xing thought was, as long as he cultivated to immortality and his strength was sufficient,
at that time, it wouldn’t be difficult to have his parents and family accompany him for hundreds, even thousands, or tens of thousands of years.
Thinking this way, Su Xing’s determination to seek the Dao grew even firmer, and he looked toward the simulation panel.
[After saving Yu Yan, you began to observe the battlefield situation.]
[As expected, although the Human Race had produced many strong individuals because of you over the years, they were still far behind the powerful Foreign Race.]
[In most cases, the Human Race could only rely on the majestic Demon-Subduing Pass to fend off the invasions of the demonic beasts.]
[You took all this in and only cultivated harder.]
[In the eleventh year, you continued to practice Origin Force. Even with the Origin Force Seed, your daily training time could only be maintained at five hours.]
[The remaining time, you spent killing enemies at the Demon-Subduing Pass, reducing the losses of the Human Race.]
[Even though you knew it was just a simulation, you couldn’t bear to see your friends and compatriots die tragically in front of you.]
[You slew many Demon Emperors, but by now, the flesh essence of the Demon Emperors was no longer of much use to you.]
[So you began to study whether the flesh essence of Demon Emperors could enhance the strength of Human Race professionals.]
[According to your research, ordinary Human Race professionals who consumed the flesh essence of Demon Emperors saw only a slight increase in strength because they couldn’t digest the energy in the flesh essence.]
[So you tried researching, making elixirs from the flesh essence, hoping this method could enhance the strength of the Human Race.]
[In the twelfth year, you trained daily; in your spare time, you researched the medicinal properties of the flesh essence.]
[According to the descriptions in the Li Fire Alchemy, there was an elixir called the Rebirth Pill, and this elixir was only of lower grade.]
[Its effect was to compensate for the innate deficiencies of Qi Refinement practitioners. Even those with weak physical bodies could greatly enhance their constitution after consuming multiple Rebirth Pills, potentially reaching the level of early Body Refinement cultivators.]
[And the main ingredient of the Rebirth Pill was the flesh of some precious spirit pets because it contained the essence of life.]
[According to your idea, if the main ingredient were slightly adjusted, the effect of the demonic beasts’ flesh essence might be even better.]
[So while practicing, you also tried to refine a new type of elixir.]
[In the twelfth year, you made a minor breakthrough in the cultivation of Protective Gang Qi, getting closer to the Mahayana Level.]
[In the same year, you made further progress in your research on the Rebirth Pill. Initially, you used the flesh essence of Demon Kings as the main ingredient. Although its effect was stunning, it was too violent and had significant side effects.]
[You didn’t use human subjects but captured some monsters from the dungeon for testing.]
[You found that while some monsters saw increased strength after taking the elixir, others exploded and died.]
[You weren’t satisfied with this result, so you spent your spare time improving the elixir recipe each day.]
[In the thirteenth year, your Divine Skill Protective Gang Qi was getting closer to reaching the Mahayana Level.]
[At the same time, after many improvements, the side effects and instability of the Rebirth Pill had significantly reduced, but it still wasn’t ready to be used on professionals.]
[Amid daily arduous cultivation and countless enhancements to the elixir, two years passed slowly.]
[In the fifteenth year, on a sunny afternoon, after years of hard cultivation, your Divine Skill Protective Gang Qi finally climbed to the Mahayana Level!]
[Simultaneously, your mastery of Origin Force also approached perfection, not far from reaching the third stage.]
[In the same year, you finally refined a Rebirth Pill with potency comparable to a mid-grade elixir!]
