    Chapter 26 – Streak of Good Luck, the Secret to Getting Rich!

    Su Xing’s eyes lit up when he saw this. He hadn’t expected a green-quality luck talent to have such a significant impact.

    Previously, finding chickens with potential had taken him at least a month, yet this time he’d succeeded in just one week.

    “It seems this lucky streak talent is truly remarkable… perhaps I can bring it out from the simulator.”

    With that thought, Su Xing continued reading.

    【You raised those seven or eight chickens separately, feeding them measured amounts of Spirit rice daily. After some time, their feathers grew even more lustrous.】

    【Each day, aside from feeding the spirit chickens on schedule and tending to the Spirit grain, you spent most of your time studying the Separation Fire Alchemy Art.】

    【You selected some of the Spirit seeds left behind by Qingyunzi for planting, and also purchased some high-quality ginseng from the market to plant in your spirit field.】

    【A week passed, and Jin Congxue came to the Capital City to visit you. You gave her the Spirit rice you had prepared in advance and treated her to a meal.】

    【After parting with Jin Congxue, you continued devoting yourself to studying the Separation Fire Alchemy Art. Since you already possessed the Separation Fire technique, you attempted alchemy directly.】

    【You took out some Spirit rice and mixed it with three or four types of medicinal herbs, placing them into the alchemy furnace according to the proportions specified in the pill formula.】

    【You carefully controlled the temperature of the Separation Fire, but unsurprisingly, due to your lack of technique, the alchemy attempt failed.】

    【You didn’t give up and continued devoting yourself to alchemy.】

    【Half a year quickly passed. During this time, aside from regularly feeding Wang Qingxuan emotional encouragement, you spent most of your time learning how to refine Fasting Pills.】

    【Finally, through your relentless efforts, you successfully refined your first batch of Fasting Pills.】

    【After another half year, you had memorized every step of Fasting Pill refinement by heart. The herb ratios, heat control, and alchemy techniques for Fasting Pills had all reached near-mastery.】

    【Now, each batch of Fasting Pills you refined yielded eight or nine successful pills. Thanks to your excellent luck, roughly every two to three batches would produce one supreme-grade Fasting Pill.】

    Su Xing’s expression brightened when he saw this. In his previous simulation, mastering the Separation Fire technique alone had taken eight years.

    But in this simulation, because he already possessed the Separation Fire technique from the start, it only took one year to successfully learn Fasting Pill refinement. The efficiency had improved dramatically!

    Su Xing eagerly continued reading.

    【You spent a week refining fifty completed Fasting Pills, then sought out Jin Congxue to sell them.】

    【Jin Congxue invited an appraiser from the Jin Commerce Group to evaluate your Fasting Pills. The appraiser said he had never seen this type of pill before, but that his dungeon produced an item called a “Soldier’s Ration Pill.”】

    【The appraiser explained that the Soldier’s Ration Pill was a medicine that provided energy to the human body—after consumption, one would feel energized and not experience hunger for three days. However, your Fasting Pill could maintain this state for an entire month, making its effects far superior to the Soldier’s Ration Pill.】

    【Since the Soldier’s Ration Pill sold for approximately 3,000 yuan per pill, the appraiser estimated your Fasting Pills could sell for around 100,000 yuan each.】

    Su Xing frowned slightly at this. The Fasting Pill only sold for a mere 100,000 yuan per pill?

    That was lower than he had imagined.

    But then Su Xing realized—because the dungeons in this world produced various spatial items similar to storage rings, every Class User could carry large quantities of food on their person.

    The Fasting Pill’s greatest advantage was its convenience and compactness, followed by saving time on meals, making it useful in certain special situations.

    【The appraiser stated that if you could supply this pill long-term, he was willing to represent the Jin Commerce Group in purchasing them at 80,000 yuan per pill on an ongoing basis.】

    【Jin Congxue was displeased after hearing this. She declared that these Fasting Pills were worth 100,000 yuan each, and she would buy however many you had. The appraiser frowned slightly but didn’t object.】

    Su Xing felt a warmth in his heart when he saw this. 100,000 yuan per pill was the retail price—if Jin Congxue purchased them from him at that price, there would be virtually no profit margin. She was doing this entirely to help him.

    【You didn’t refuse Jin Congxue’s kindness, because you believed the Fasting Pills were genuinely worth 100,000 yuan. You sold all fifty Fasting Pills to Jin Congxue, but kept five supreme-grade Fasting Pills for your own use.】

    【You used all the money from the sale to purchase materials for refining Beauty-Preserving Pills. Since you didn’t have spirit ginseng, you could only substitute with ordinary ginseng.】

    【One day, Wang Qingxuan came to find you. She said she might have to leave you to join a mysterious organization.】

    【You asked her if it was the Advent Cult. She was surprised that you knew about this sect, but still nodded in confirmation.】

    【You patiently guided her, explaining that the Advent Cult was not a good organization, but that Wang Qingxuan could serve as your undercover agent, infiltrating the Advent Cult from within. At the same time, you asked her to help you find the second half of the Eternal Spring Art.】

    【Although Wang Qingxuan didn’t understand your request, her love for you ran deep, and she agreed.】

    【That night, the two of you were wild with passion. The next day, she withdrew from the Capital City Academy.】

    Su Xing breathed a sigh of relief at this. Based on the results of his previous simulation, the Advent Cult was absolutely a colossal entity—one that was even conspiring with foreign races to exterminate humanity. He genuinely didn’t want any contact with the Advent Cult.

    But the problem was that the whereabouts of the second half of the Eternal Spring Art lay within the Advent Cult, and he had no choice but to find a way to obtain intelligence about them.

    Su Xing continued the simulation.

    【After parting with Wang Qingxuan, you began devoting yourself to researching the Beauty-Preserving Pill.】

    【In the second year of the simulation, because you lacked spirit ginseng and substituted ordinary ginseng directly, the difficulty of refining Beauty-Preserving Pills increased significantly. After an entire year, you still hadn’t succeeded.】

    【In the third year, through your persistent efforts, you finally refined your first batch of inferior-grade Beauty-Preserving Pills. You consumed one and felt your skin become noticeably smoother and more refined. However, your refinement skill was still low—each batch could only yield one or two successful pills at most.】

    【Moreover, as your Beauty-Preserving Pill refinement consumed large quantities of materials, your savings were nearly depleted. Left with no choice, you spent another month refining three hundred Fasting Pills and sold them to Jin Congxue.】

    【With money in hand once more, you continued devoting yourself to pill refinement.】

    【In the fourth year, after over a thousand practice attempts, your refinement of the simplified Beauty-Preserving Pill had become completely reliable. Your mastery of the Beauty-Preserving Pill had reached full proficiency.】

    【You spent a week refining fifty simplified Beauty-Preserving Pills and brought them to Jin Congxue to sell.】

    【Jin Congxue took one, and immediately felt her skin become smoother and more refined. Even the fine wrinkles at the corners of her eyes gradually faded away.】

    【Jin Congxue was overjoyed and asked how long this youthful state could be maintained. You told her it could last approximately one month.】

    【Jin Congxue immediately declared she would buy all fifty of the budget-version Beauty-Preserving Pills in your possession, at a price of one million yuan per pill!】

    【You agreed, selling the budget-version Beauty-Preserving Pills to Jin Congxue and earning fifty million yuan.】

    Su Xing was deeply moved when he saw this. The cost of refining a batch of Beauty-Preserving Pills was actually even lower than Fasting Pills, since Fasting Pill refinement required Spirit rice as a material.

    But the allure of the Beauty-Preserving Pill for women was simply too immense! With just one pill, you could reclaim a month of youth—something that surpassed even the finest cosmetics and health supplements by an immeasurable degree.

    Wealthy women would absolutely be willing to pay one million for a single month of youth.

    Seeing this, the corner of Su Xing’s mouth curved upward slightly:

    “Well then, the energy costs for future simulations are all taken care of, aren’t they?”
