Chapter 297: Chapter 182: Alien Metal Mineral Worth 3 Billion Energy! (5k)_2
[You started searching for useful treasures in the ruins.]
[Your Divine Sense quickly scanned every corner of the core area but found no large fields of medicinal herbs nor any more Living Dead Puppets.]
[You only saw a few skeletons as white as jade.]
[To your disappointment, there was no sign of the Spirit Vein Dragon in these ruins.]
[However, you did find quite a few Spirit Stones in a corner.]
[At this moment, the Living Dead were once again chasing after you.]
[Gritting your teeth, you activated your Protective Gang Qi once more and dashed straight toward the Spirit Stones.]
[You swiftly collected the Spirit Stones into your Storage Magical Artifact. Meanwhile, the Living Dead attacked again from behind.]
[This time, their assault was more violent!]
[Fortunately, the Protective Gang Qi shielded you from immediate death, but you were still severely injured, looking incredibly wretched.]
[You had a sudden thought and prepared to escape into the Spirit Field Cave to temporarily evade the Living Dead Puppets’ attacks.]
[However, it seemed like there was a spatial formation within the ancient tomb of the ruins, slowing your entry into the Spirit Field Cave by a second.]
[That second proved to be fatal!]
[Your body was left in shambles under the relentless attacks of the Living Dead.]
[You were forced to let your Divine Soul leave the body in hopes of escaping this disaster.]
[But the Living Dead gave you no chance, directly annihilating your Divine Soul.]
[You died!]
[Ding, this simulation has ended!]
After the simulation ended, Su Xing frowned, seemingly deep in thought.
“Why are the Five Elements Sect ruins different from the Wan Mu Sect ruins… Why is there no Spirit Vein Dragon among them?”
“And why… does the True Person Wan Mu still slumber, but the cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Broken Void Realm from the Five Elements Sect awoke early?”
Su Xing seemed to catch onto some key pieces of information, but he couldn’t connect them just yet.
“Wait… True Person Wan Mu, intercepting the world’s Spirit Veins, converging Spirit Dragons, nurturing oneself…”
“Could it be that other sect members had no idea about this at all!”
“And it was precisely because the Spirit Veins were cut off that the Spiritual Energy quickly dried up over the centuries…”
“As for the Five Elements Sect cultivator turning into a Living Dead… it’s probably related to True Person Wan Mu!”
Su Xing seemed to have captured critical information.
“If that’s the case, then the boundless resentment from the Living Dead… can also be explained…”
“Perhaps someone discovered True Person Wan Mu’s plan, which then led to a chaotic battle within the Wan Mu Sect ruins, resulting in Living Dead Puppets?”
Su Xing pondered deeply, thinking that following this line of thought might not be wrong.
“But to verify this… I still need to search historical manuscripts in the Immortal Martial Era Instance…”
Su Xing sighed. After several millennia, finding those historical manuscripts would be challenging.
However, there might still be some traces left among the three major sects in the Immortal Martial Era Instance.
Su Xing planned to explore further when he had the time. Perhaps this information would be helpful for exploring other ancient tomb ruins.
“Anyway, the purpose of this simulation was achieved!”
“Spring Dew Pure Water, Spirit Stones… With these, my cultivation in the Return to Void Realm will surely progress smoothly!”
Thinking this, Su Xing turned his attention to the simulation’s rewards.
[I Am Not a Rain God]: Purple Talent, priced at 10 million points of energy.
[Twenty Years of Alchemy Experience]: Alchemy Insight, including Rebirth Pill (Middle-Grade Perfection, High-Grade Novice) Insight Price, 7 million energy points.
[Low-Grade Spirit Stones 220,000 pieces, Medium-Grade Spirit Stones 5,000 pieces, High-Grade Spirit Stones 300 pieces]: priced at 300 million energy points.
[Spring Dew Pure Water 240 drops]: The first drop of water that falls on the day of the Insect Awakening, containing mysterious power, can be used to refine the Void Refinement Pill. A total of 240 drops, priced at 24 million energy points.
[Damned Zong’s Diary]: priced at 10,000 points of energy.
[1,000 cubic meters of minerals containing third and fourth-rank special metals]: worth 15 billion energy points, but due to containing a lot of impurities, its value is halved.
Su Xing looked at the simulation rewards this time and did not hesitate much.
After all, his goal in this simulation was to obtain Spring Dew Pure Water and Spirit Stone resources to prepare for his breakthrough to the Return to Void Realm.
The problem was, Su Xing ran out of simulated energy!
His current simulated energy, at most, totaled 1.475 billion points, while bringing out the Spirit Stones and Spring Dew Pure Water required 3.24 billion points.
Su Xing turned his gaze to the last reward option, looking a bit shocked.
“The minerals in the Red Lotus Demon Abyss containing third and fourth-rank special metals are worth 15 billion energy points?”
“Wait… after the simulator takes ten times the price difference, it should be 1.5 billion simulated energy!”
Seeing such a huge amount of energy, Su Xing’s heart almost jumped out of his chest.
1.5 billion energy points would be enough for him to cultivate to both the Broken Void Realm and achieve Great Perfection in the Return to Void Realm!
“But… what’s this about the halved value?”
Su Xing asked, confused.
The simulator responded for once.
[Ding, because the portion of special metals in these minerals is 3.7%, they are considered secondary energy materials… If refined, the value would be 30 billion energy points.]
Su Xing instantly understood the simulator’s message.
“So, if I directly absorb it, the value is 15 billion energy points… If refined and then absorbed, the value is 30 billion energy points?”
Su Xing became excited. Whether it was 15 billion or 30 billion, it was a huge fortune for him!
“In that case, I should first make a trip to the Red Lotus Demon Abyss Instance!”
Su Xing murmured to himself.
Previously, he used the immersive simulation function to simulate an entire scene of going to the Red Lotus Demon Abyss.
If he went there in the real world now, it would certainly be foolproof!
