Capítulo 23: Chapter 23 Li Fire Alchemy!

Su Xing hesitated for a moment after hearing this.

Of course, he knew the value of these Spirit Rice, as they were considered premium cultivation resources for cultivators.

And for other profession users, long-term consumption of these Spirit Rice could also enhance their physical qualities.

In other words, it was like those items in online novels that could directly boost the attributes of ordinary profession users, such as physique and strength.

But Su Xing had only spent 50,000 Energy to get fifty pounds of Spirit Rice, which converted to ten million Great Xia Coins.

How could these fifty pounds of Spirit Rice be worth fifty million Great Xia Coins?

At this moment, Jin Congxue spoke:

"Last night, I had our guild's appraiser estimate the value of this Spirit Rice."

"For ordinary profession users, these Spirit Rice are no less valuable than the meat of powerful demonic beasts, nourishing treasures."

"But the most precious aspect is indeed the effect of these Spirit Rice on ordinary people! It can prolong life, delay aging... even cure diseases!"

"I think many wealthy people would be willing to spend a million just to try a pound of Spirit Rice... A pound is enough for an ordinary person to eat for half a month, and this thing is almost impossible to replicate; it is a treasure only the two of us possess. Precious, isn't it?"

Upon hearing Jin Congxue's explanation, Su Xing also understood.

Scarcity determines value, and since he exclusively monopolized this Spirit Rice, it was naturally precious.

Moreover, the ability of Spirit Rice to prolong an ordinary person's life was tremendously enticing.

Su Xing nodded slightly but suddenly thought of something and said:

"Congxue, it's best if you consume this Spirit Rice yourself... Even if you want to give it away, please do not say it came from me! Please make sure to keep it a secret for me!"

Seeing Su Xing so serious, Jin Congxue knew he wasn't joking and thus took the Spirit Rice, saying:

"Don't worry, I'll keep your secret! As for this fifty pounds of Spirit Rice, let's call it a debt of fifty million Great Xia Coins, how about that?"

Su Xing nodded after hearing this.

The reason he didn't want Jin Congxue to reveal his identity was because he feared that mysterious organization would target him.

After all, he had just exposed the aftermath of possessing Spirit Rice in his simulation, and it was quite tragic.

However, if Su Xing were short on money in the future, he could sell some to Jin Congxue.

After all, he still had over three thousand pounds of Spirit Grains in his portable Spirit Field Blessed Land, and it would be mature for harvest in half a year.

Su Xing then said:

"Congxue, I want to procure a batch of white-quality equipment from your Jin Merchant Guild, let this one billion act as the procurement funds!"

Su Xing handed the card to Jin Congxue again. Although curious why Su Xing needed so much white-quality equipment, she still nodded in agreement.

"I can help you buy it, but... you have to stay with me in Jinling City for a week, I want to play the perfect host!"

Jin Congxue winked playfully and said.

Su Xing naturally agreed, after all, purchasing equipment would take some time.

For the next week, Su Xing stayed in Jinling City, and Jin Congxue was very hospitable.

With Jin Congxue's introduction, Su Xing procured over a hundred thousand pieces of white-quality equipment from the Jin Merchant Guild at the lowest price of 900 coins each.

On New Era December 3, 2023, Su Xing returned to Kyoto University.

The first thing he did upon returning to his dormitory was to exchange all the white-quality equipment for Simulated Energy.

The over a hundred thousand pieces of equipment were exchanged for a total of 620,000 points of energy, making Su Xing wealthier than ever.

"Ah, now I'm a huge debtor by a small goal's worth..."

Su Xing gave a bitter smile, he had to figure out a way to diversify his income sources, or else, continuously borrowing money from others would eventually leave him unable to purchase energy.

"As of now, the Spirit Grains in the Blessed Land are a stable way to make money... But the Spirit Grains will take six more months to mature, and these 600,000 points of energy might not be enough for me to simulate a few times."

Su Xing quickly made up his mind and began a new round of simulation.

"Start simulation!"

[This time consuming 1300 points of energy, remaining energy 622,680 points, remaining simulations unlimited.]

[Simulation starts!]

[Drawing white talent cost 100 points of energy, green talent cost 1000 points of energy, draw?]

"Draw green talent!"

[Ding, congratulations on obtaining green talent, Tenacity!]

[Tenacity]: Your temperament is several times more resilient than ordinary people, and in the face of difficulties, you will rise to the challenge, never easily giving up.

Upon seeing this talent, Su Xing's eyes lit up. This was a talent that could affect temperament; though it couldn't directly enhance strength, its utility in simulations couldn't be underestimated.

[In the dormitory, you realized you were in a simulation.]

[First, you returned to the Spirit Field Blessed Land to observe if the chickens you purchased a few days ago had survived.]

[Unsurprisingly, none of the dozens of chickens you bought last time had survived.]

[You had a sumptuous meal and then went to the market to buy hundreds more chickens, raising them in the Spirit Field Blessed Land.]

[You started to study the Li Fire Alchemy, which recorded the crafting methods for 360 kinds of elixirs, most of which you couldn't understand.]

[You could only choose a few relatively low-tier elixirs to craft.]

[You chose the Fasting Pill and the Nourishing Face Pill, both first-tier elixirs with the simplest crafting methods.]

[The main ingredient for the Fasting Pill was Spirit Rice, along with some herbs. Consuming one would allow an ordinary person to not feel hunger for a month.]

[Fortunately, other than the relatively precious Spirit Rice, the other materials for the Fasting Pill could all be purchased in this world.]

[You took out an old alchemy furnace to start crafting, but soon encountered the first problem, you had no fire.]

[You tried using a lighter to start a fire, but the temperature of ordinary flames wasn't enough, and lacked Spiritual Energy, making it difficult to craft elixirs.]

[So you took out the Li Fire Alchemy again to study it, soon discovering a flame technique in it called Li Fire.]

[The jade slip recorded that Li Fire was a simplified version of the ancient divine fire, Naiming Li Fire, difficult to cultivate, unattainable without great perseverance.]

[But your biggest fear was not difficulty, so you started researching the Li Fire technique.]

[In the first year, you meditated on the Li Fire technique for four hours a day, throughout the entire year, but did not attain entry.]

[During this period, Wang Qingxuan visited you, and after one night, she joined the Descending Sect.]

[In the second year, you increased your meditation time on Li Fire to six hours daily, persisting for an entire year, still not attaining entry.]

[Your heart remained firm, never giving up. In the third year, you meditated on Li Fire for eight hours daily, and after half a year, you finally grasped a sliver of the Li Fire technique.]

[You were ecstatic, meditating on the Li Fire technique day and night. After another two and a half years, you finally attained entry.]

[In the sixth year, you successfully gained preliminary mastery of the Li Fire technique, capable of summoning a wisp of Li Fire in your palm.]

[This Li Fire had an extremely high temperature, incinerating objects upon contact. Gold would melt into liquid within seconds in the Li Fire, yet it caused you no harm.]

[You realized that Li Fire could not only be used for alchemy but also to fend off enemies!]
