Chapter 80: Dual Focus, Double the Alchemy Speed!

Jin Congxue nodded after listening and said,
“The production of first-grade alternative tal is significantly higher, and the price is much cheaper; the market price is only one-tenth of that of second-grade alternative tal. On average, the price per kilogram is around 5000 yuan, with the cost price at 4000 yuan per kilogram.”
After speaking, Jin Congxue handed over a palm-sized piece of tal.
Su Xing took the piece of first-grade alternative tal and imdiately felt that it was much lighter.
After testing it with a simulator, he found that this 100-kilogram piece of alternative tal contained 2000 points of simulated energy.
By that calculation, the energy output of first-grade alternative tal basically costs 200 yuan per point of simulated energy.
Su Xing thought for a mont. Based on the current situation, white-quality equipnt was still the most cost-effective thod of obtaining energy, but the cost of alternative tal was not too much higher, and it was more convenient to purchase large quantities of alternative tal all at once.
Su Xing made up his mind quickly. He would still primarily purchase white-quality equipnt, while also buying a small amount of alternative tal. Later, when he needed more energy, perhaps alternative tal could take its place.
So, Su Xing said,
“Xue’er, the second-grade alternative tal should be barely enough for casting an alchemy furnace, but I’m afraid it won’t last long before getting burnt out… If it’s possible to have third-grade alternative tal, that would be the best!”
After listening, Jin Congxue thought for a while and said,
“Third-grade alternative tal is the main material for crafting epic equipnt, which is too precious. It’s only seen at auctions, and the price is hefty… I will keep an eye out for this information for you.”
“If you need it, I have quite a few channels to obtain first and second-grade alternative tals.”
Hearing this, Su Xing nodded helplessly and said,
“If that’s the case, then let’s use second-grade alternative tal to forge the alchemy furnace for now. If I rember correctly, the Jin rchant Guild has a few master smiths who can craft it. It’s going to be troubleso for you…”
Jin Congxue shook her head lightly, indicating it was no trouble at all. Su Xing quickly drew up the blueprints for the alchemy furnace he had always used and asked Jin Congxue to help him craft two new ones.
After dinner, the two flirted and joked for a while before Su Xing returned to school.
Taking advantage of the absence of others around him, Su Xing entered the Spirit Field Blessed Land.
He first exchanged the newly obtained 120,000 pieces of white-quality equipnt for energy, providing him with a total of 630,000 points of energy. Adding to his previous leftover of nearly two million points, Su Xing’s energy reached 2.63 million points.
On the afternoon of February 18, 2024, in the New Era, Su Xing began his twenty-fourth simulation on ti.
“Start the simulation!”
Su Xing silently chanted in his mind.
[Ding! This simulation consus 2400 points of energy, leaving a balance of 2,633,333 energy points, with unlimited remaining simulation opportunities.]
[Simulation starts!]
[Extracting a white talent costs 100 points of energy, extracting a green talent: 1000 points, extracting a blue talent: 10,000 points. Would you like to extract?]
“Extract a blue-quality talent!”
Su Xing was indeed eager to extract a higher quality of talent, such as purple, but the problem was that his assets were insufficient, and the simulator didn’t even offer this option!
[Ding, congratulations on obtaining a blue-quality talent, Proficiency in Buddhist Teachings!]
[Buddhist Mastery]: You possess a unique wisdom root, and if you embark on the path of Buddhist cultivation, severing the seven emotions and six desires, you may beco a true Buddha in this world.
Su Xing saw the new blue talent he had drawn and imdiately, black lines appeared on his forehead.
“Damn it, do I really have such a fate with those bald monks? This is the second Buddhist talent I’ve drawn!”
Su Xing sighed. Although he knew that among cultivators there were also those who practiced Buddhism, abandoning the seven emotions and six desires and not being able to drink wine or eat at did not suit his tastes at all.
Su Xing would rather be a solitary sword cultivator than beco a bald monk.
After sighing, Su Xing turned his gaze to the simulation panel.
[Within the Spirit Field Blessed Land, you realize that you are in a simulation.]
[Thinking of the new talent you’ve acquired, you quickly take out a mirror to check your hair.]
[Fortunately, your hairstyle is still flowing elegantly; it seems the talent does not affect your appearance.]
[First, you take out the Shennong Spiritual Nurturing Technique, find the seeds of the Gathering Spirit Flower, and plant them, then provide daily careful nurturing.]
[In the following week, you continue to refine elixirs every day while enhancing your cultivation level, as the spiritual energy within the Spirit Field Blessed Land is still abundant enough for your daily cultivation needs.]
[A week later, Jin Congxue handed over two alchemy furnaces she had refined to you. Excited, you couldn’t wait to try out their efficacy.]
[When you first attempted to multitask, you made frequent mistakes, and the speed of refining elixirs in two furnaces simultaneously was even slower than focusing on a single one.]
[However, after experinting for a month, the speed of your alchemy rapidly improved.]
[Half a year later, you were able to refine elixirs in both furnaces at the sa ti without any issues, and you discovered a new skill nad “Multitasking” on your panel, which excited you.]
[One day, Wang Qingxuan found you, and after one night, you joined the Descending Sect.]
[The second year, after being an ordinary sect mber for three months, you had earned the trust of the Descending Sect, so you deliberately showed off a bit of your alchemy, catching the attention of the Shadow Protector.]
[You earned the appreciation of the Shadow Protector, who promised that as long as you refined elixirs for the sect each month, you would be able to beco an Elder within a year.]
[Looking at the Shadow Protector’s loyal deanor, you had already rolled your eyes in your heart. The little vixen sure put on a good act; no wonder no one in the Descending Sect ever doubted her.]
[But you didn’t expose her directly; instead, you continued to refine elixirs.]
[Because you had mastered the Multitasking skill, you were able to refine elixirs in two pill furnaces simultaneously, which skyrocketed your alchemy efficiency. With your speed, you could refine more than two hundred Organ Refining Pills or Essence-Nourishing Pills a day.]
[Unfortunately, the Shadow Protector only provided you with a little over three hundred herbs each month, so you spent no more than half a month to refine over three thousand elixirs, and after deducting a ninety percent margin, you supplied over three hundred inferior-quality Essence-Nourishing Pills to the sect every month.]
[With the remaining ti, you focused on enhancing your own cultivation level.]
[The third year, your cultivation level grew more refined, and you felt you were not far from the second level of the Nascent Soul Stage. However, the bad news was that the spiritual energy within the Spirit Field Blessed Land had also thinned out considerably, and you estimated that the remaining spiritual energy would at most suffice for your cultivation to reach the third or fourth level of the Nascent Soul Stage.]
[Fortunately, the Gathering Spirit Flowers you had planted earlier had matured. All three plants survived, and you carefully observed around the Gathering Spirit Flowers, indeed sensing that the concentration of spiritual energy was significantly higher.]
[You finally confird that Gathering Spirit Flowers could indeed produce spiritual energy, but with only three plants, their effect on improving the spiritual energy was quite unsatisfactory. You estimated that you needed to plant dozens of Gathering Spirit Flowers to ensure a balance between the spiritual energy input and output of the Spirit Field Blessed Land.]
[It’s a pity that the Shennong Spiritual Nurturing Technique had scant details on propagating Gathering Spirit Flowers, so you could only set aside this thod of abundant spiritual energy for now.]
