Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!

[Only by integrating the Great Dao Principles into the formation could one achieve Dao through formations and possess combat strength comparable to the Immortal Realm!]

[And you were still far from that point...]

[Thus, you chose to solidify your foundation, further comprehend the ninth-rank Dao of Arrays, understand more profound composite formations, and attempt to modify the seventh-rank Minor Spirit Gathering Array...]

[Another three years passed.]

[In the fifty-fourth year, your understanding of the seventh-rank Minor Spirit Gathering Array advanced further, and the speed of cultivation provided by the Minor Spirit Gathering Array increased by about ten percent.]

[You knew that to make further advancements and reach the eighth-rank Minor Spirit Gathering Array, you needed to attain the level of an Array Grandmaster.]

[By then, the passive cultivation speed of the Minor Spirit Gathering Array would surpass the Super Spiritual Root, nearly reaching the level of the Space Spirit Root!]

[So, you continued your painstaking research into the Dao of Arrays...]

[In the blink of an eye, another three years passed.]

[In the fifty-seventh year, one day in White Emperor City, your heart issued a frenzied warning. Your talent for forewarning made your heart pound violently.]

[You cast divinations but received no hints.]n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

[This made your heart tighten, suspecting that Qing Yunzi might be searching for you.]

[So, you decided resolutely to leave White Emperor City and flee into the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains...]

[The vast stretches of the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains might help you fend off Qing Yunzi's pursuit to some extent.]

[In the fifty-eighth year, you hid in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains for a year.]

[During this year, you lived in the wilderness, and your daily activities involved reinforcing the Concealment Array, shielding your celestial secrets, hoping to evade Qing Yunzi's search.]

[But on this day, Qing Yunzi found you.]

[Qing Yunzi, dressed in black, stood not far away, expressionless as he looked at you, pondering something.]

[Your heart sank, but knowing escape was impossible, you hardened yourself and stepped forward.]n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

[Qing Yunzi asked why you were not staying in the Qingyun Sect and had come to this realm instead.]

[You hurriedly explained that you came to the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains to train and seek opportunities to enhance your cultivation.]

[Qing Yunzi nodded slightly after listening, remained silent for a while, then asked if you had heard of Luo Tian.]

[You knew this was just Qing Yunzi's attempt to probe, so you dared not hide and stated that you did indeed come from Blue Star, had visited the Luo Tian Sect's replica, and obtained a cultivation technique called Zhengyi Submission Decision.]

[Qing Yunzi then asked you to transcribe the cultivation technique's formula for him.]

[You immediately complied, handing over the Zhengyi Submission Decision to him.]

[Qing Yunzi only comprehended briefly before discovering that this technique required one to reach the Human Immortal Realm to cultivate.]

[But you had cultivated for less than a hundred years, how could you reach the Mahayana Realm?]

[Thus, Qing Yunzi asked if you had obtained other opportunities...]

[You responded that you were exceptionally skilled in planting Gathering Spirit Flowers and had always used Spiritual Liquid for cultivation, making rapid progress.]

[Qing Yunzi was not satisfied with your answer, so he performed the Soul Searching Technique on you!]

[Your consciousness gradually faded...]

[You died!]

[Ding, this simulation ends!]

After the simulation ended, Su Xing let out a long sigh.

"It seems... even if I honestly confess, I still can't escape Qing Yunzi's Soul Search and death..."

"Perhaps in Qing Yunzi's heart at that time, I was not his disciple at all, just a disciple taken by his divine sense, with no name or status..."

Su Xing took a deep breath. If he walked the path of joining the Qingyun Sect, the outcome was clear: being discovered by Qing Yunzi and ultimate death!

As for how Qing Yunzi found him, it was too simple!

As long as Su Xing had lived in the Qingyun Sect, leaving his aura behind, finding Su Xing would be easy for a Daluo Golden Immortal, wouldn't it?

"Joining the Qingyun Sect and becoming a second-generation core disciple... the advantage is getting a massive amount of resources easily and cultivating peacefully for about sixty years..."

"But after sixty years, once Qing Yunzi exited seclusion, I would be doomed!"

Su Xing weighed the pros and cons. Joining the Qingyun Sect had both advantages and disadvantages. If he needed to find precious resources or profound divine skills and techniques, he could join!

Meanwhile, another thought arose in Su Xing's mind.

"Qing Yunzi only exited seclusion after more than fifty years, proving that at that moment, he had completely severed his Good Corpse!"

"Perhaps... at that time, Qing Yunzi still harbored good thoughts and self-awareness. If my cultivation is sufficient, can I help him sever the Evil Corpse ahead of time and avoid this calamity?"

Since there were still more than fifty years, everything was still possible!

As long as Su Xing preserved Qing Yunzi's Good Corpse and Self Corpse before the Evil Corpse took absolute control, he might make Qing Yunzi truly his master!

With Qing Yunzi as a great backer, Su Xing could stride through the Three Thousand Worlds without hindrance...

But this was just a thought of Su Xing's, whether it could be achieved remained unknown.

Su Xing took a deep breath. This simulation, though less than sixty years, provided too much information and benefit!

The early understanding of Qing Yunzi's intelligence, the comprehension of the Dao of Arrays, or the news about the "Secret Realms," all would make future simulations for Su Xing much easier.

"As for the next path, naturally, it is to cultivate to the perfection of the Mahayana Realm as quickly as possible... then smoothly cross the tribulation and achieve the Human Immortal Realm!"

Su Xing set a small goal first, then turned his eyes to the rewards of this simulation.
