Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!

So said Su Xing.

Before long, the three of them returned to the Baili mansion.

With the help of the various healing medicines of the Baili family, Master Baili soon regained consciousness.

Upon waking, Master Baili looked around and spotted Su Xing among the crowd.

Master Baili quickly came to a realization and bowed to Su Xing, saying:

"Thank you, senior, for your life-saving grace. I will never forget this great kindness for as long as I live..."

Su Xing, upon hearing this, simply shook his head slightly, fiddling with the two storage rings on his hand, and said:

"It's just business... you pay, I protect your life, that's how it should be."

Baili Tu was startled upon hearing this, then decisively said:

"Senior, my life is worth more than these instance dungeon items..."

"How about this, as long as I live, the Baili family will provide a batch of instance dungeon items to senior every month..."

"The Baili family may not have much of value to offer... but we do have some wealth... whatever you need, we will try to satisfy!"

Su Xing nodded slightly and said:

"If that's the case, if I need anything in the future, I will come to the Baili family to find you..."

"Now that the head of the Baili family has recovered, it is time for me to leave..."

Baili Tu wanted to ask him to stay, but Su Xing wasn't interested in further relations, preferring to maintain a purely business relationship.

Su Xing vanished on the spot, turning into a streak of light and leaving the Baili mansion.

After Su Xing left, Baili Tu sighed deeply:

"Alas, this senior is unfathomably strong... yet he does not wish to become too involved with my Baili family..."

"Well, being able to keep in touch with the senior is already good... as long as we keep collecting instance dungeon items in the future, the senior is bound to have some goodwill towards the Baili household."

At this moment, Baili Tu was convinced that Su Xing was definitely one of those legendary figures who lived in seclusion.

Even among legendary figures, he was among the best!

Such a strong person might already be hundreds of years old, having seen too much of the world's vicissitudes.

While the Baili Business Association was one of the top businesses in Da Xia, it was still far from enough for a legendary strong person...

...

Meanwhile, after leaving the Baili mansion, Su Xing once again used his Divine Sense to check the storage rings.

As expected, there was no tampering by the Baili family this time.

But Su Xing, always cautious, flew with his sword to Kyoto City and made sure no one was following him before he changed his appearance and returned to the Spirit Field Cave.

First, Su Xing converted the two storage rings given to him by Baili Qi into model energy.

[Ding, detected a large amount of energy-rich materials, total value 430 million model energy, do you wish to absorb?]

"Yes!"

Su Xing said decisively.

Including this batch of model energy, Su Xing's energy once again surged to 690 million points.

Su Xing nodded in satisfaction.

"Not bad, the Baili Business Association, as the leader of the southern commerce guilds, can collect over four billion worth of instance dungeon items in just a couple of months..."

"This scale of business and capability, Tarot Society is still far behind..."

An average of four billion energy every two months was a respectable income for Su Xing.

"There's also the exotic metals I found in this instance, worth sixteen billion after purification..."

"In that case, in just one short day, I have earned just over twenty billion in energy!"

Su Xing was somewhat excited, then returned to his dormitory and made a call to Jin Congxue.

After confirming that Jin Congxue was still in Kyoto City, Su Xing sent over the exotic metal ores.

Five hundred cubic meters of exotic metal ores would be purified in no more than two weeks.

By then, Su Xing would be able to earn sixteen billion instance energy at one go!

"Phew... Su Xing, you can't get carried away! There are still many uses for energy in the future..."

"Energy is a thing that the more you have, the better."

Su Xing reminded himself.

Over the next few days, Su Xing continued to stay in the Spirit Field Cave, refining elixirs, arranging spirit formations, and even took the time to read the diary left by Damned Zong.

By the 28th of October, the Spiritual Energy in the Spirit Field Cave had become extremely rich.

It had fully progressed from an inferior cave to a medium-quality one.

From now on, every week, Su Xing could automatically collect a total of three thousand drops of Spiritual Liquid!

That day, after finishing his elixir refining, Su Xing changed his appearance, and went to find Jin Congxue.

Today, Jin Congxue was wearing a white floral dress, looking very much like a young girl.

The two chatted leisurely while eating together.

Su Xing handed over the elixirs that he had refined over the week to Jin Congxue.

Then he took out two more bottles of elixirs and passed them over, saying:

"Sister Xue, these two bottles contain twenty Spirit Pills..."

"The Spirit Pill will greatly benefit your strength enhancement... and this pill is extremely precious, so you should take it yourself and not let others know about it..."

Seeing how serious Su Xing was, Jin Congxue nodded and put away the elixirs.

Afterward, Jin Congxue also took out the goods she had prepared for the week and said:

"According to your request, the exotic metal ores you sent a few days ago have also been partially purified... I'll hand them all over to you!"

Su Xing took the storage ring, and after some more casual conversation, he skillfully checked with his Divine Sense and safely returned to the Spirit Field Cave.

He converted the week's goods into model energy.

Su Xing's model energy instantly skyrocketed by more than seven billion.

Including the energy he had left, Su Xing's model energy had reached a total of fourteen billion!

"Phew~ Having money on hand really calms the mind!"

Su Xing looked at the long string of numbers on the panel, his lips inevitably curling into a smile.
