[Equipment: Ink Ice]

After several simulation accumulations, Su Xing’s Body Refinement and Qi Refining Cultivation had greatly improved.

And with the addition of his special talents, Su Xing could even rival numerical anomalies.

Even his skill column, the Divine Arts he mastered, were not few, barely able to exert a fighting power equivalent to the Divinity Transformation Stage.

“But this cultivation technique…”

Su Xing frowned slightly, his current cultivation technique was still the Changchun Technique he had previously obtained, which could only be learned up to the Return to Void Realm Great Perfection.

Although Su Xing was only at the early stage of entering Divinity Transformation, he had to consider the future, otherwise looking for a cultivation technique later would waste a lot of time.

A thought flickered in Su Xing’s heart, and he murmured to himself,

“Speaking of which, I possess a dual-type Wood and Fire True Spiritual Root, but the techniques I’ve learned so far are merely Wood Type, and I have yet to master Fire Type…”

“And now, there are four methods I know of to acquire a technique.”

“First, through the Luotian Meeting Instance, by engaging in immersive simulations to memorize techniques… But that’s too energy and effort consuming, without triggering an epiphany, at least a dozen simulations are needed to completely memorize an Earth Rank technique!”

“Secondly, through that damned Zong… As a freak who has lived for two thousand years, he should have cultivation techniques that reach higher levels, perhaps I can manage to obtain some…”

“The third method, naturally, would be the End of Law Age Instance. Although I’ve never visited this instance, I can now be certain that Damned Zong comes from this instance, and the previous Changchun Sect should also belong to it…”

“As a result, even though the Spiritual Energy has dissipated, it doesn’t eliminate the possibility of higher level cultivation techniques!”

“The last option… naturally would be to break through to the Return to Void Realm and then go look for my nominal master Qing Yunzi, to see if I can get a higher level cultivation technique!”

Su Xing thought over everything carefully.

Memorizing cultivation techniques through the Luotian Meeting by force is not very cost-effective, the energy used for simulation might need up to hundreds of millions.

This method could only be a last resort, and unless absolutely necessary, Su Xing was unwilling to do so.

As for the breakthrough to the Return to Void Realm and searching for the old Taoist Qing Yunzi, the uncertainties were too great!

After all, Su Xing hadn’t quite figured out Qing Yunzi’s true colors; even though the old Taoist was Su Xing’s nominal master, one must always guard against others. What if Qing Yunzi were a great demon wanting to refine Su Xing into a Human Pill?

When he first entered Cultivation, Su Xing was ignorant of the Cultivation World’s cruelty.

But now, through Damned Zong, Su Xing understood the cruelty of the Cultivation World.

In less than a year, to reach the Return to Void Realm would be too shocking, and if Qing Yunzi wanted to dig into the secrets behind him…

Hiss~ The consequences would be unimaginable!

With Su Xing’s caution, he naturally wouldn’t take such a risk!

“So, only the last two paths remain!”

Su Xing’s eyes narrowed slightly.

“End of Law Age… and Damned Zong, I want both of these paths!”

Su Xing had planned for the future and took a deep breath.

Just as he was about to return to the Spirit Field Blessed Land to practice Alchemy, he suddenly detected a figure within the range of his Divine Sense.

Su Xing’s expression changed slightly.

“It’s Wang Qingxuan… Why is she hiding behind the dormitory building and crying alone?”

Su Xing was somewhat puzzled. He didn’t dislike this junior, and even had a slight fondness for her.

After all, Wang Qingxuan was not a bad person, she had always been nice to Su Xing, and in the early stages, even helped Su Xing obtain the Changchun Technique for Cultivation.

“So, what trouble has Wang Qingxuan encountered?”

Su Xing’s heart stirred slightly, pretending to pass by the dormitory building by chance, creating an opportunity for a coincidental encounter.

“Junior sister, what’s the matter with you?”

Su Xing watched Wang Qingxuan, who was hiding in the corner, sobbing continuously, looking so helpless and frail.

Su Xing felt a pang of compassion and handed her a tissue.

When Wang Qingxuan saw it was Su Xing, she felt even more ashamed, as if she didn’t want her crush to see her in such a state.

So she desperately thought about running away.

Su Xing quickly grabbed hold of Wang Qingxuan, wiped the tears from her face with the tissue, and asked with concern:

“Junior sister, if there’s anything wrong, talk to me!”

Wang Qingxuan looked up at Su Xing, felt a warmth rise in her heart, and could no longer hold back, bursting into tears in Su Xing’s embrace.

“Senior brother… My, my parents, they’re dead… dead…”

Upon hearing this, Su Xing’s expression changed instantly. Wang Qingxuan’s parents were dead?

So Su Xing quickly said:

“Junior sister, don’t panic, just take your time and tell me…”

Wang Qingxuan took the tissue, slowly dried the tears at the corner of her eyes, and told Su Xing about her recent ordeal.

It turned out that while Wang Qingxuan’s family wasn’t well off, both her parents were Silver Level professionals.

They had always been working for an organization called “Black Dragon Mercenary Guild.”

Mercenary guilds are some of the most common professional organizations in society.

After graduating from professional colleges, aside from the few geniuses who are specially recruited by officials, most professionals will join trade associations, guilds, companies, and such.

Mercenary guilds’ main work is to run instances to grind for gear, or help a client acquire rare items within instances, power-leveling clients, and so on.

Professionals employed by the guild receive salaries, and also get certain commissions from equipment and items obtained within the instances.

The strength of the guilds is formidable; when many professionals team up to run instances together, their levels grow faster and their safety is more assured.

But, according to Wang Qingxuan…

Her parents had perished in an instance half a month ago due to a mission intelligence error by the Black Dragon Guild.

Although such incidents are not common, they do happen every year.

After all, running instances is not playing games; it’s truly a fight for your life against the monsters of the instance!

A careless death in battle is very normal.

But the issue is that those who die in battle for the guild should be able to get a substantial compensation!

Especially in the case of Wang Qingxuan, who is still in college and at a critical time when she is growing in strength and needs money the most.

The compensation for her parents dying in action could even exceed ten million Great Xia Coins!

Yet the Black Dragon Guild refused to pay compensation and even falsified the contract.

How could Wang Qingxuan, a college student, possibly stand up to the powerful guild?

With her parents gone and her biggest source of income lost, Wang Qingxuan felt utterly hopeless about life.

Watching Wang Qingxuan crying uncontrollably in his arms, Su Xing felt a measure of pity.

“Black Dragon Mercenary Guild, this name, it sounds somewhat familiar, doesn’t it?”

Su Xing suddenly remembered something, pondering thoughtfully.

“That’s right! I remember in the simulation, there was a guild I wiped out, called the Black Dragon Guild… Could there be some connection between these two?”

A thought crossed Su Xing’s mind, and while comforting Wang Qingxuan in his arms, he said:

“Junior sister, try to stabilize your emotions for the next few days, I’ll think of a way to help you with this!”
