Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!

Chapter 1200: Chapter 416: Red Mythical Talent, Space Spirit Root!_2

[Even though you have stepped into the Golden Immortal Realm, with your immortal power continuously recovering, under this high-intensity consumption, you still need to constantly consume Spiritual Liquid to ensure your cultivation level doesn’t fall.]

[At the same time, the heavy consumption of mana leaves you unable to focus on cultivation.]

[Fortunately, the growth of the Tianyuan Divine Tree is quite delightful…]

[In the external world, a month has passed, but within the Luo Tian Realm, about two and a half years have gone by…]

[With assistance from the Five Elements Earth and the combined efforts of you and Shennong Youtian in cultivation, the Tianyuan Divine Tree has finally sprouted a sapling as thick as a thumb.]

[According to ancient texts, it takes 6,000 years for the Tianyuan Divine Tree to reach its maturity, bearing fruit every 3,000 years thereafter…]

[Although the timeline is lengthy, the different flow of time within the Luo Tian Realm will ensure the Tianyuan Divine Tree bears fruit several times.]

[Now that the seed has been planted, you simply need to wait patiently for the Divine Tree to bear fruit, supplementing your cultivation as needed.]

[A month later, you received a staggering fortune from the Great Xia Military… including numerous alien metals and instance dungeon items.]

[You are aware that in two months, Blood Three will arrive here.]

[Given your current strength, you are still unable to defeat Blood Three.]

[Thus, within two months, you evacuated all members of the Great Xia Military from the Human Race to the Little Qingyun Realm.]

[After entering the Little Qingyun Realm, you sold information on Red Moon to the Heavenly Secret Pavilion.]

[Subsequently, you visited the Qingyun Sect and conducted a trade with Qing Yunzi.]

[After returning from the Qingyun Sect, you went back to the Little Qingyun Realm and once again entered the Luo Tian Realm to prepare for an attempt to replicate Enlightenment Tea.]

In the real world, Su Xing furrowed his brows slightly.

“Does the time acceleration within the Luo Tian Realm at 30x flow speed truly consume so much?”

“Only one day, and it requires consumption of half the cultivation level of the Golden Immortal Phase?”

Su Xing suddenly felt a bit of a headache.

Originally, he thought that the discrepancy in time flow between the Luo Tian Realm and the external world would allow him to cultivate inside the Luo Tian Realm.

Even if cultivation speed couldn’t increase by 30 times, achieving a tenfold boost shouldn’t be an issue, right?

But Su Xing had neglected the energy consumption required to activate the time acceleration within the Luo Tian Realm.

It must be understood that the total mana capacity of a Golden Immortal is incredibly vast — even if Su Xing were to face off against a Golden Immortal Peak cultivator in battle, with natural recovery accounted for, it would take an entire year to deplete that mana.

Yet consuming half of it daily means that the expenditure far exceeds even the consumption during battles between Golden Immortals!

“Indeed, anything concerning time — even on a small scale — comes with an incredible cost…”

Su Xing shook his head slightly.

The daily near-half consumption of mana would inevitably prevent Su Xing’s mana from remaining full.

Without full mana reserves, the improvement of cultivation level becomes utterly impossible.

“Could it be that the 30x time flow speed consumes too much?”

“Perhaps I can try lower speeds later and observe how the mana consumption varies…”

For now, however, Su Xing’s primary focus remains cultivating the Tianyuan Divine Tree and replicating Enlightenment Tea.

“Let’s see if this Enlightenment Tea can actually be successfully replicated…”

Su Xing’s heart held a trace of anticipation as he looked toward the simulation panel.

[Over the next six months, you placed Enlightenment Tea at the core of the Luo Tian Mirror and continuously infused it with mana.]

[As mana was steadily infused, you faintly sensed that a new piece of Enlightenment Tea was slowly forming.]

[But the replication speed is far too slow!]

[You estimate that, even with daily uninterrupted mana infusion, it would take at least 100 years to successfully replicate a piece of Enlightenment Tea.]

[Moreover, the replication of Enlightenment Tea consumes an enormous amount of energy, coupled with simultaneously sustaining the 30x time flow. Even with your mana reserves, it’s difficult to support both.]

[Under these circumstances, you had no choice but to temporarily halt the replication of Enlightenment Tea and focus entirely on accelerating the maturity of the Tianyuan Divine Tree.]

[Controlling the flow of time requires a significant supplement of Spiritual Liquid, so in the following 30 years, you explored every corner of the Qingyun Realm’s Luo Tian Legacy, acquiring countless amounts of Spiritual Liquid.]

[In the 30th year, you decided to leave the Qingyun Realm and head toward the Heavenly Secrets Domain.]

[In the external world, 30 years had passed, while the Luo Tian Realm maintained the 30-year span at a 30x time flow speed.]

[In other words, the Tianyuan Divine Tree grew for a full 900 years within the Luo Tian Realm!]

[The original thumb-sized sapling has grown into a tree over a person’s height. On its emerald-green leaves, there seems to be Origin Force attached. Cultivating beneath the Tianyuan Tree, you can feel a faint increase in your Origin Force.]

[Aside from cultivating the Tianyuan Divine Tree, you didn’t waste the benefits of the 30x time flow speed.]

[You planted Gathering Spirit Flowers densely across the Luo Tian Sect, maturing every three years. Over 900 years, your yield exceeded 500,000 plants of Gathering Spirit Flowers!]

[After acquiring the Luo Tian Sect Legacy, you didn’t stay in the Qingyun Realm anymore but instead traveled to the Heavenly Secrets Domain.]

[In the 40th year, you successfully arrived in the Baiyun Boundary of the Heavenly Secrets Domain.]

[You concealed your identity and gained a position as an elder within the Baiyun Sect, quietly waiting for the maturity of the Tianyuan Divine Tree.]

[Thus, another 60 years passed in the blink of an eye.]

[In the 100th year, with a time difference of 30x, 3,000 years had already passed within the Luo Tian Realm.]

[In 3,000 years, the Tianyuan Divine Tree has grown to a height of approximately three zhang, with a trunk so thick that a single person cannot encircle it.]

[Unfortunately, the Tianyuan Divine Tree has still not reached its maturity.]

[By now, the Luo Tian Sect has transformed into a sprawling field of Gathering Spirit Flowers.]

[Millions of Gathering Spirit Flowers are abundant, and you’ve set up formations to channel their produced Spiritual Energy, making the Spiritual Energy density within the Luo Tian Sect comparable to that of a Top-Grade Cave Heaven.]

[From the millions of Gathering Spirit Flowers, you are able to generate approximately 10,000 drops of Top-Grade Spiritual Liquid each day.]

[With the supplementation of this Spiritual Liquid, you can finally maintain the external/internal time discrepancy of the Luo Tian Realm.]

[For now, the millions of Gathering Spirit Flowers in the Luo Tian Realm are sufficient for your needs.]

[Thus, you began spending a portion of your mana daily to transfer the Gathering Spirit Flowers from the Luo Tian Realm to the Spirit Field Cave.]

[Besides planting Gathering Spirit Flowers, you also started studying the Dao of Arrays, attempting to lay down a higher-grade Spirit Gathering Array.]

In the real world, Su Xing nodded slightly.

“Millions of Gathering Spirit Flowers can produce 10,000 drops of Top-Grade Spiritual Liquid daily… When combined with those within my Spirit Field Cave, it’s more than 10,000 drops a day.”

“For the cultivation level of my Golden Immortal Realm, this is indeed enough…”

“However, the current issue is… constructing a Great Cave Heaven is not as simple as merely piling up Gathering Spirit Flowers and Spiritual Energy.”

“Careful study of the Dao of Arrays is necessary to improve the Spirit Field Cave further…”

Previously, Su Xing had witnessed the distinction between small and Great Cave Heavens.

Su Xing’s current Spirit Field Cave could only be classified as a small Cave Heaven level. Even as a top-grade small Cave Heaven, it was at most capable of producing Top-Grade Spiritual Liquid.

But if he could take it a step further to create a Great Cave Heaven, it would significantly benefit his cultivation.

Not only because cultivation efficiency within a Great Cave Heaven is vastly superior, but most importantly, a Great Cave Heaven can produce Immortal Liquid!

Immortal Liquid is a treasure that was incredibly rare even in ancient times.

Its concentration and effects are a hundred times that of Spiritual Liquid!

One drop of Immortal Liquid is equivalent to a hundred drops of Top-Grade Spiritual Liquid!

Only a strong cultivator above the Taiyi Golden Immortal could qualify to utilize Immortal Liquid.

After all, the mana density of those beyond Taiyi Golden Immortal is incomprehensibly vast, and Spiritual Liquid alone is no longer sufficient.

“For my current stage, Top-Grade Spiritual Liquid is enough for cultivation… But if I were to use Immortal Liquid, the cultivation efficiency would certainly be multiplied manyfold!”

“Hence, the construction of a Great Cave Heaven must be made a priority!”

“With my Space Spiritual Root and Immortal Liquid cultivation… I could cultivate to Taiyi Golden Immortal at an incredible pace!”

Su Xing thought to himself, his gaze settling on the simulation panel.

[Over the next century, aside from cultivating the Tianyuan Divine Tree and Gathering Spirit Flowers, you also studied the Dao of Arrays within the Scripture Pavilion…]

[Finally, in the second century, the Tianyuan Divine Tree advanced to its maturity stage…]
