Chapter 313: Chapter 187 Cultivation Level Soars, Return to Void Realm Third Layer! (First Update, Please Vote for Monthly Tickets~)_3

[Eighteenth Year, consumed forty thousand low-grade Spirit Stones, cultivation level showed slight improvement…]

[Nineteenth Year, you consumed forty thousand low-grade Spirit Stones, finally feeling your cultivation level reaching the peak of the Second Layer of the Return to Void Realm, just a step away from breaking through to the Third Layer…]

[Twentieth Year, you took out the more than two hundred thousand drops of Spiritual Liquid accumulated over the years, preparing to begin closed-door training for a breakthrough.]

[A month later, your cultivation level successfully broke through.]

[Congratulations on becoming a cultivator at the Third Layer of the Return to Void Realm!]

Su Xing looked at the simulation text in front of him, unable to help but sigh inwardly.

“Indeed, using Spiritual Liquid and high-grade Spirit Stones for cultivation is much faster than using low-grade Spirit Stones!”

“From the First Layer to the Second Layer of the Return to Void Realm, it only took two and a half years… But from the Second Layer to the Third Layer, it actually took a full seven or eight years!”

Su Xing shook his head slightly, and at this speed, it was still the result of him consuming some Spiritual Liquid during the period.

Otherwise, it would probably take another year…

“Sigh, I haven’t had the pleasure for a few years… and now the cultivation speed plummeted back to square one!”

Su Xing shook his head slightly, considering the overall speed, Su Xing’s hope of breaking through to the Fourth Layer of the Return to Void Realm in this simulation was slim.

“In the end, it’s still a lack of resources! The many Spirit Stones and Spiritual Liquid accumulated before… also won’t last for a few years…”

Su Xing realized that he had still underestimated the difficulty of cultivating in the Return to Void Realm, and only with sufficient Spiritual Liquid and high-grade Spirit Stones could the cultivation level increase rapidly and significantly.

“But, it’s not bad… at the very least, each simulation provides a thrill of rapidly increasing cultivation!”

Su Xing knew he couldn’t be discontented.

After all, the cultivation realms grow progressively harder to elevate.

If a cultivator, with unchanged cultivation resources and aptitude, needs ten years to advance one layer in the Divinity Transformation Stage,

then by the time they reach the Return to Void Realm, it would take several decades, or even a hundred years to break through…

The difficulty rises exponentially!

But this was also the reason why countless cultivators existed over the years, but those who achieved immortality were extremely few.

Without aptitude and resources, you want to cultivate to immortality?

What kind of cultivation are you even talking about!?

There’s no other way! Cultivation is like this…

“Fortunately, the Return to Void Realm can still maintain roughly the same cultivation speed as the Divinity Transformation Stage, which is a stroke of luck!”

“However, if there are no other resources after the Integration Phase, the cultivation progress would be even harder…”

Thinking of this, Su Xing’s heart yearned even more…

Yearning to obtain that Spirit Dragon in the Wan Mu Sect ruins!

“Hmph! When I have enough strength later, I must bring one Spirit Dragon back home to raise!”

Su Xing thought thus, his gaze turning towards the simulation panel.

[Twenty-first Year, you used low-grade Spirit Stones to cultivate, spending forty-three thousand low-grade Spirit Stones, cultivation level slightly improved.]

[Twenty-second Year, you consumed forty-three thousand low-grade Spirit Stones…]

[Thus, another three years passed.]

[Until the Twenty-fifth Year, the Demon-Subduing Pass was fully invaded by the demon army.]

[Knowing that time was short, you consumed all the Spiritual Liquid collected over the years, went into closed-door training for a month… but your cultivation level still failed to break through to the Fourth Layer of the Return to Void Realm…]

[At this time, your cultivation level finally reached the later part of the Third Layer of the Return to Void Realm, still a considerable distance from the Fourth Layer of the Return to Void Realm.]

[You had yet to exhaust the more than four hundred thousand low-grade Spirit Stones in your hand, but you decided to make another trip to the Demon-Subduing Pass.]

[On this day, hundreds of legendary demonic beasts, three demon emperors, and countless demon armies descended upon the Demon-Subduing Pass!]

[Human race powerhouses suffered heavy casualties, and the entire Demon-Subduing Pass was on the brink of being breached at any moment.]

[Alone, you fought a legendary behemoth, battled hundreds of rounds, and slew a legendary demonic beast with tough skin and thick flesh.]

[But meanwhile, the human emperor powerhouses were besieged and killed, and you were also slain by the demon emperors who had freed their hands…]

[Your divine soul was annihilated by the demon emperors…]

[You died!]

[Ding, the simulation has ended!]

After the simulation ended, Su Xing exhaled a long breath, murmuring:

“Sure enough, relying on just one’s own strength, even slaying a legendary being, it was impossible to change the situation…”

“Unless, I had the strength to kill a demon emperor!”

But Su Xing also knew that accomplishing this in a short time was unrealistic.

“Fifteen years of cultivation, from the First Layer of the Return to Void Realm, reached over halfway through the Third Layer… this speed wasn’t slow!”

Su Xing was still quite satisfied as he nodded.

After all, the intention of Su Xing this time was only to reach the First Layer of the Return to Void Realm, but it had exceeded expectations, achieving an additional target!

“So, next, it is time to claim the simulation rewards!”

Su Xing rubbed his hands with some excitement, his gaze turning to the simulation panel.

[Great Talent Maturing Late]: Purple Talent, priced at 1 million points of energy.

[Twenty-five Years of Alchemy Experience]: Alchemy insights, containing Void Refinement Pill (Mahayana) insights, priced at 10 million points of energy.

[Third Layer of the Return to Void Realm]: Entry into the Void Domain, achieving the Return to Void Realm. After a perfect baptism of divine thunder, Spiritual Power has increased several times compared to the Divinity Transformation Stage. Priced at 300 million points of energy.

[Divine Sense of Thirty-One Thousand Feet]: Achieving the Return to Void Realm, experiencing the perfect baptism of divine thunder in the Void Domain, significantly enhancing Divine Sense. Priced at 210 million points of energy (Note: Selecting this reward will forgo the initial baptism by divine thunder.)

Su Xing was satisfied as he looked at the rewards in front of him, which were far richer than those from the last simulation’s end!

As for the choice of rewards, Su Xing was naturally not conflicted.

The Great Talent Maturing Late was not of much use to Su Xing at the moment.

And since Su Xing had already reached the Third Layer of the Return to Void Realm, Mahayana-level Void Refinement Pill crafting techniques were almost useless…

Thus, the remaining choices for Su Xing were only the cultivation level of the Return to Void Realm and the Divine Sense!
