“However, the origins of this bone sword are too immoral; using it would go against the heavens…”

Su Xing shook his head slightly, turning his attention to the other options.

After some hesitation, Su Xing was torn between three reward choices.

A thousand-zhang divine sense, three-tailed phoenix grass, and snow bone jade ginseng.

“This snow bone jade ginseng is a must-pick. If I don’t choose it, I fear I might have to fight that damned Zong again in the next simulation, which would be a loss not worth the gain…”

“As for the thousand-zhang divine sense and three-tailed phoenix grass…”

After wavering for a while, Su Xing decided to choose the three-tailed phoenix grass.

After all, with the snow bone jade ginseng and three-tailed phoenix grass, Su Xing would be able to concoct the Infant Tempering Pill, which was clearly more critical for him.

As for the divine sense, if there was a chance in the next simulation, reaching a thousand zhang would not be difficult.

Thinking this, Su Xing silently declared.

“I choose to take out the snow bone jade ginseng and the three-tailed phoenix grass…”

[Ding, your energy is insufficient. Please collect enough simulation energy before exchanging…]

The prompt from the simulator rang in Su Xing’s ears.

When Su Xing checked his remaining energy, he found he only had less than twenty-six million left, with a shortfall of four million energy!

“Dammit, I didn’t expect to run out of energy so soon… Sigh, looks like I can only wait for now. After this week’s goods are delivered, it should be enough…”

Su Xing suddenly felt rather frustrated. Ever since he started making money through alchemy, he had never been short of money.

But now that he was about to enter the Divinity Transformation Stage, energy was becoming scarce again.

Not to mention, just to bring out the Great Perfection of Divinity Transformation and Great Perfection of Divine Strength Realm cultivations would require tens of millions of energy points from Su Xing…

“Sigh, I still need to find a way to make money!”

“The Tarot Commerce Association only provides ten million energy a week; at this rate, it will take two months to break through to the Great Perfection of the Divinity Transformation… This speed is too slow!”

As the saying goes, cutting costs is impossible; only by increasing income can one barely maintain a decent lifestyle.

“Once the mining area instance dungeon gets approved, the energy gained should be much more…”

“But for now, I can only push Jin Congxue a bit more to bring over more instance dungeon items!”

Su Xing sighed and sent several messages to Jin Congxue, urging her to help him gather more instance dungeon items. Then he took out the alchemy furnace and prepared to start alchemy in a rush.

The life of alchemy is very monotonous and extremely taxing on the mind.

Even a master alchemist, if they fail to control the subtle heat and timing, could ruin an entire batch of elixirs.

However, Su Xing was already well-versed in alchemy.

In just a week, Su Xing concocted six thousand pills.

That day, Su Xing stored the finished elixirs properly and went out to the villa to meet Jin Congxue.

Today, Jin Congxue wore a sling dress with sleepwear, with two faint dark circles around her eyes, looking as if she had not slept well.

Su Xing handed over the elixirs and teased:

“What’s the matter, played thief last night? Why do you look like you didn’t get a good night’s sleep?”

Jin Congxue rolled her eyes and pouted:

“Hmph, it’s all because of you! Didn’t you have me purchase a large number of instance dungeon items for you?”

“These past few days, I’ve been to dozens of branches and over a hundred warehouses of the Jin Merchant Guild in Jiangnan Province to collect all sorts of strange instance dungeon items for you… take a look for yourself!”

With that, Jin Congxue handed over several storage rings.

Su Xing opened the storage rings and, sure enough, they were filled with mountains of instance dungeon items.

Su Xing’s heart stirred as he checked the energy contained in these items.

[Ding, detection of certain energy-containing materials, valued at 16.42 million energy points, do you wish to convert?]

[Ding, detection of certain energy-containing materials, valued at 9.76 million energy points, do you wish to convert?]

[Ding…]

Several voices echoed in Su Xing’s mind as he calculated the totals.

Well, the instance dungeon items stored in these four storage rings have a total energy close to fifty million model units!

Startled, Su Xing asked:

“How does Jin Merchant Guild have so many instance dungeon items?”

Jin Congxue replied:

“They’re sold to us by professionals! Every day, a good number of professionals come specifically to sell instance dungeon items. Over time, it naturally accumulates to quite a sum…”

“Jin Merchant Guild has a wide range of business activities, and we occasionally purchase a small number of instance dungeon items, and selling them also earns us a little profit.”

After a pause, Jin Congxue continued:

“However, the number of instance dungeon items in Jin Merchant Guild isn’t large, and they’re sparsely distributed, making them hard to find…”

“If you’re interested in these items, perhaps you could contact Baili Business Association in Guang Province.”

Upon hearing this, Su Xing muttered in confusion, “Baili Business Association?”

Jin Congxue nodded slightly and said:

“Baili Business Association is located in Guang Province, the southernmost region of Great Xia Country, and is one of the top commerce associations. The young master of the association, Baili Qi, loves collecting these peculiar instance dungeon items. Over several decades, the things he has amassed could probably pile up into mountains…”

Su Xing’s eyes lit up at the information. Goodness, instance dungeon items collected over several decades—if he could really obtain them, how much model unit energy would that be worth!

Hastily, Su Xing asked:

“How can I contact this Baili Qi? I want to acquire all his instance dungeon equipment!”

Jin Congxue found this a bit difficult and replied:

“Baili Qi is an eccentric character who dislikes seeing people, and besides, our Jin Merchant Guild doesn’t have that close a relationship with him…”

“However, I’ve heard that recently, Baili Qi’s father, Baili Tu, seems to be nearing the end of his life and is apparently looking for life extension items produced from instances. If his life could be extended, perhaps you could exchange these items with Baili Qi…”

Su Xing’s interest was piqued upon hearing this.

Life extension items are extremely precious in instance dungeons, something countless top brass would kill for but rarely obtain.

After all, the secretive proprietors behind these business associations, given their need to manage their businesses, probably don’t have much time to enhance their strength, and can barely make it to the Heavenly King Level with the help of various items.

And for those at Heavenly King Level, their lifespan would be around three to five hundred years. To live longer, the only option would be to break into the Martial Emperor Level.

“A life extension elixir, huh… I’ll figure something out. After I’ve crafted an elixir that can extend life, help me get in touch with Baili Business Association, will you?” Su Xing proposed.

Jin Congxue was taken aback upon hearing Su Xing’s confidence and exclaimed incredulously:

“Can you actually craft life-extending elixirs?”

Seeing Jin Congxue’s amazement, Su Xing felt puzzled but still explained:

“Not sure yet, but willing to give it a try. I should have a fifty-fifty chance of success…”

As far as Su Xing knew, the Li Fire Alchemy recorded no fewer than seven or eight different kinds of longevity elixirs.

After all, isn’t that exactly what cultivators strive for?

For cultivators to craft longevity elixirs, it’s practically right up their alley.

From the ungraded body-nourishing pills to the low-grade life extension pill, longevity pill, the mid-grade Longevity Pill, and the high-grade Qingming Pill…

The effects range from extending life by a year or two, to five years, ten years… and even several decades.

However, longevity elixirs have a tolerance effect—after one or two pills, taking more of the same elixir becomes ineffective.

Su Xing, being in the prime of his youth, naturally hadn’t considered crafting longevity elixirs before.

But now, it seemed that longevity elixirs could well be the ultimate profitable product!

Upon hearing Su Xing say there was a fifty percent chance, Jin Congxue was even more astounded, doubtingly saying:

“Do you realize how precious life extension items are? A life extension item from an instance could be worth a legendary piece of equipment, or even rarer!”

“If you announce you can craft longevity elixirs, not only would all the top forces treat you as an honored guest, but even the elderly high officials of Great Xia Country would be begging you!”

Seeing Jin Congxue’s shock, Su Xing’s expression turned serious. He had initially thought only of the vast profits longevity elixirs could bring, but hadn’t considered the tremendous risk that came with them!

After pondering for a moment, Su Xing said:

“As for the longevity elixirs, I’m not entirely sure I can make them… so please keep this a secret, and don’t spread the word.”
