    [You wanted to ask more questions, but suddenly, the world trembled, and a giant beast that blotted out the sky appeared in the distant sky.]


    [Upon seeing the giant beast, Lu Yuanwu’s eyes flickered with a touch of casual resolve. He patted your shoulder and flew straight towards the distant creature.]


    [At the same time, top warriors from all over Great Xia Country took to the skies, representing the last of the country’s strength.]


    [However, the gap in strength was terrifyingly vast. The giant beast effortlessly captured all of Great Xia Country’s top warriors in one fell swoop.]


    [You fell silent for a moment before choosing to enter the Spirit Field Blessed Land.]


    Su Xing felt a stir in his heart upon seeing this. Perhaps, within the Spirit Field Blessed Land, one could escape this catastrophe?


    But the simulation result that followed plunged Su Xing into utter despair.


    [You entered the Spirit Field Blessed Land, which, unlike the earthly purgatory, appeared serene.]


    [Just when you thought you had managed to escape disaster, the entire Spirit Field Blessed Land started shaking as if the heavens and earth were collapsing, and darkness gradually enveloped the entire land.]


    [You got caught up in the spatial turbulence, torn to pieces.]


    [You died, and the simulation ended!]


    Su Xing took a deep breath after seeing this, unable to come back to his senses for a long while.


    The gains from this simulation were immense!


    Apart from advancing his cultivation level to the Golden Core Realm, he learned much secret information about the Human Race, most importantly the coordinates of the three cultivation-related instances!


    Now, if Su Xing wished, he could explore those instances for himself.


    “No rush... My strength is still too low. Even at the Golden Core Realm, there’s a slight risk of perishing,” he said.


    Su Xing was very cautious. He knew that even though the strongest NPC mentioned in the instance information was at the Master Level, what if there was some Hidden Master, a Grandmaster Level, or a Heavenly King Level character? Wouldn’t that be game over for him?


    Therefore, Su Xing decided to play it safe.


    Su Xing first eliminated the Majestic Bearing talent; he already had a dual-type spiritual root of wood and fire, which was like possessing a significant tool, and he didn’t need it to be any larger.


    “Cultivation at the Golden Core Stage First Layer is a must-choose! It can greatly enhance my strength and even the spiritual energy inside my body... But what the hell is this high-grade Golden Core and Nine Revolution Golden Core they’re talking about?”


    Su Xing rolled his eyes as if he had already glimpsed a pit waiting for him to fall into.


    As for the other option, Su Xing hesitated for a moment but chose the Ten Years of Alchemy Experience. After all, it was an experience that included mastery of Organ Refining Pills at the Mahayana level.


    If Su Xing brought it back, who knows? He might be able to raise his Body Refinement Cultivation Level directly to the Organ Refining Realm in the next simulation!


    “I choose to take back the Golden Core Stage cultivation level and Ten Years of Alchemy Experience!”


    A notification sound reached Su Xing’s ears.


    [Ding, you’ve chosen to take the Ten Years of Alchemy Experience, spending 100,000 energy points, leaving a balance of 307,000 energy points.]


    [Ding, you’ve chosen to take the Golden Core Stage First Layer cultivation level, spending 110,000 energy points, leaving a balance of 197,000 energy points.]


    Boom!


    In Su Xing’s mind, it was as if a thunderbolt had struck from a clear sky; his temperament and body had undergone a massive transformation.


    Spiritual energy appeared within Su Xing’s body out of nowhere. Like water flowing along its course, his cultivation level increased several fold in a matter of tens of seconds, and the mana within his body was also ten times more substantial.


    If the spiritual energy in Su Xing’s body was originally a spring, now it was a bubbling stream.


    Gathering, compressing... and finally, bursting!


    Su Xing closed his eyes slightly, feeling the spiritual power within him undergo further changes. The stream-like spiritual power began to converge and eventually poured into a deep pool within his body—his dantian.


    The spiritual power inside was like a small seed, which began to sprout slowly, then grew tender leaves, eventually blooming and bearing fruit. Su Xing felt the presence of this fruit, like a tiny Golden Core, residing contentedly within his dantian.


    Su Xing’s physical strength was now a notch above what it had been before; it was as if every cell in his body was rejoicing. At the same time, Su Xing’s mental strength had also improved during this process, with his divine sense becoming sharper and even his spiritual platform clearer.


    There was no pain in this process, rather it felt as refreshing as a spring breeze.


    Finally, Su Xing slowly opened his eyes, a flash of golden light seemingly passing through them.


    “Is this... what it feels like to be in the Golden Core Stage?”
