Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!

[A sudden idea crossed your mind, and you cast the Spirit Explosion Technique from your palm into the Blood Demon Sect's main gate!]

[Boom! In an instant, the horrific explosion of spiritual power swept across most of the sect...]

[After a few breaths, the smoke slowly dissipated, and you saw thousands of low-level cultivators blown to pieces like ants beneath you.]

[Fearful screams instantly filled the entirety of the Blood Demon Sect's domain.]

[But you, with a nonchalant expression, took out a bottle of spiritual liquid. After taking a sip, you condensed another cyclone and cast the Spirit Explosion Technique downward once more.]

[You released three Spirit Explosion Techniques consecutively in this manner.]

[Within less than a quarter of an hour, only a mere dozen cultivators remained out of tens of thousands in the entire sect.]

[All cultivators below the Divinity Transformation Stage were indiscriminately killed by the Spirit Explosion Techniques.]

[Even those in the Divinity Transformation Stage were severely injured and had weakened auras.]

[After the massacre, you controlled your spiritual power and slowly descended into the main hall of the Blood Demon Sect, where you saw the dozens of remaining cultivators gathered defensively.]

[Apart from the two Return to Void Realm cultivators that caught your eye, the Divinity Transformation cultivators were just as vulnerable to you.]

[You slowly walked into the hall and casually killed a Divinity Transformation cultivator with a single sword strike.]

[As your divine sense swept over the corpse, you found it to be exactly as you had expected—the body quickly decayed, and soon a Gu worm crawled out of it.]

[You summoned your spiritual power to capture the Gu worm, which immediately bared its fangs and claws at you.]

[You frowned slightly. Not only had the previous Divinity Transformation cultivators you killed turned into corpses, but so had the ones you just killed. All the cultivators in the sect, from the Foundation Establishment Stage to the Nascent Soul Stage, transformed into corpses after death.]

[You looked up at the cultivators before you, who were now trembling in fear.]

[Your divine sense swept over the only two Return to Void Realm cultivators.]

[Just as expected, these two looked like their lifespans had been significantly shortened, their auras faint and unstable.]

[One of the Return to Void Realm cultivators, who was tall and burly, looked somewhat better off than the other, who was already shrouded in black energy and had no more than fifty years of life left...]

In the real world, Su Xing looked at the text in front of him and frowned, muttering:

"Even Return to Void Realm cultivators have such short lifespans?"

"A normal Return to Void Realm cultivator can easily live for two to three thousand years... but in this world, their lifespans are merely four to five hundred years at most?"

"Is it because of the Blood Immortal Scripture?"

Su Xing took a deep breath and silently said:

"Activate the immersive simulation function for 24 hours!"

[Ding, you have successfully activated the immersive simulation function, costing you 2.4 million points, 1,047,930,000 points. ]

As the notification sound from the simulator faded, Su Xing's vision suddenly changed.

In the next second, Su Xing found himself in an unfamiliar environment.

The first thing he noticed was the strong smell of blood and the thick, uncomfortable atmosphere in the air.

Su Xing frowned slightly and scanned the area ahead.

He saw that, a few dozen meters in front of him, were dozens of cultivators with various facial expressions, holding weapons and magical treasures, standing on guard.

The eyes of every cultivator were filled with intense fear.

Su Xing glanced at the decaying corpses not far away, then used his divine sense to examine the dozens of living cultivators before him, muttering:

"As expected, just like the text in the simulation described... these cultivators have shortened lifespans and don't seem like real cultivators at all!"

Su Xing shook his head slightly.

The cultivation methods of the cultivators in this world had deviated from the essence of the path of cultivation and headed towards some extreme directions.

What is the essence of the path of cultivation?

Though Su Xing had only stepped into the cultivation world for less than two years, having passed the five trials of the Divinity Transformation, his understanding and determination in the cultivation mind state and the pursuit of the Dao were quite firm.

In Su Xing's view, the ultimate goal of any cultivator is singular: longevity!

Longevity, to live as long as heaven and earth, to shine as brightly as the sun and moon.

Further down, some cultivators seek heroic vengeance or carefree existence... or, for ambitious cultivators, the power to rule the world and the luxury of being surrounded by beauty.]

But no matter the goal, it all revolves around the ultimate objective of cultivation, longevity!

However, in this world, even those who achieve the Return to Void Realm have lifespans shorter than ordinary Golden Core and Nascent Soul cultivators.

Such a practice goes against the very essence of cultivation.

"Quick success methods are indeed unreliable..."

Su Xing shook his head slightly. The only advantage is that the Blood Immortal Scripture is not selective.

As Su Xing was deep in thought, the voices of the dozens of cultivators before him trembled as they spoke:

"Senior, what grudge do you hold against us that you would annihilate our Blood Demon Sect to such an extent?"

"Yes, Senior, those low-level cultivators are just cannon fodder... but we cultivators above Divinity Transformation have worked hard to reach this stage!"

Su Xing coldly looked at the pleading cultivators before him, remaining silent.

Seeing that Su Xing was unmoved, the cultivators threatened:

"Senior, although your strength is formidable... our Blood Demon Sect is not to be trifled with!"

"You may have overrun our sect, but that is only because our Blood Dragon Ancestor is not home!

"Once you break through the formation, the Blood Dragon Ancestor will surely return quickly. If you leave now, we can pretend nothing happened... Otherwise, you won't be able to escape when the time comes!"

After hearing the two Return to Void Realm cultivators, a hint of interest appeared on Su Xing's face as he asked:

"Oh? After I slaughtered thousands of your sect members, you'll pretend nothing happened?"

"Do you take me for a fool?"

The two Return to Void Realm cultivators looked at each other at his words.

One of the slightly stronger cultivators stepped forward and said to Su Xing:

"Senior, to be honest, the Blood Dragon Ancestor is my father!"

"If you are willing to show mercy, we will pretend nothing happened... and even offer a grand gift!"
