Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!

[The Tiger Immortal was quite astonished upon hearing this, for there had not been a child born for hundreds of years, yet after seeing a doctor, four children were born within three years!]

[Such a change was truly heaven-defying.]

[To show his sincerity, the Money Demon King chose the location of the banquet at the border of the two Demon Kings' territories.]

[On the day of the banquet, the Tiger Immortal brought you, along with several Human Immortal Realm demon generals, to attend the engagement.]

[This banquet was not an ambush. The Money Demon King expressed his gratitude to the Tiger Immortal and re-signed an alliance treaty, assuring that he would never attack the rear of the Tiger Immortal's territory, and from then on, the two would support each other.]

[On the day of the banquet, the two Demon Kings drank heavily, and their relationship reverted to what it had been a thousand years ago, filled with deep brotherly affection.]

[The Money Demon King felt especially grateful to you, having beforehand inquired about your preferences and prepared several hundred pounds of Flesh Essence of Human Immortal Realm.]

[After the banquet ended, you returned to the Tiger Immortal Village.]

[Thereafter, you began attempting to refine the Rebirth Pill.]

[However, the Flesh Essence from Human Immortal Realm demon cultivators contained much less energy compared to that of the Mahayana and Transcendance Tribulation Stage.]

[You found it very difficult to grasp the precise refinement.]

[It took you two years to barely figure out the refinement method for this level of Rebirth Pill.]

[In the thirty-ninth year, you consumed a Human Immortal Realm Rebirth Pill and attempted to cultivate.]

[But you discovered that while this level of Rebirth Pill was effective, the medicinal power was too potent, requiring several days for complete absorption.]

[Thus, taking one elixir every three days was sufficient for your cultivation needs.]

[Even so, the speed at which your Body Refinement Cultivation Level improved was nearly fifty percent faster than before!]

[As such, three more years passed...]

[In the forty-second year, after consuming a large number of Rebirth Pills, your cultivation level gradually approached the peak of the Third Layer of the Great Achievement Stage.]

[You began preparing for the matters related to breaking through to the Fourth Layer of the Great Achievement Stage.]

[In recent years, the relationship between the Tiger Immortal Village and the Money Village steadily improved, and the pressure on the Tiger Immortal Village was not as great as before.]

[The injuries the Tiger Immortal sustained years ago had almost entirely healed, and his combat strength had returned to its peak.]

[But the situation in the Tiger Immortal Village seemed far from optimistic. Over more than a decade, nine of the thirty-six demon king forces in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains had been annihilated.]

[Such a severe upheaval had never occurred in the past thousands of years.] Explore more adventures at empire

[You increasingly suspected that there was an unknown force outside the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains pushing events and accelerating the significant depletion of demon king forces.]

[Since the last "Money Village" incident, your status in the Tiger Immortal Village had further elevated, and the Tiger Immortal regarded you as his strategist.]

[As a result, you advised the Tiger Immortal to avoid conflicts with the surrounding demon king forces and to unite in facing potential threats.]

[The Tiger Immortal, however, dismissed your advice with disdain, as he was in a crucial period of contention with the Bear Demon King for territory.]

[The two forces had suffered mutual casualties in their fight for spirit veins over the years, accelerating their internal consumption of strength.]

[In the forty-third year, after your advice bore no results, you focused more on overcoming your bottleneck.]

[Though you temporarily resided under the Tiger Immortal's command, your own strength was your only true reliance.]

[Since the reconciliation between the Tiger Immortal Village and the Money Village, the alliance had been quite stable, and the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains were not easily eradicated.]

[In the forty-fourth year, you offered three hundred Gathering Spirit Flowers to the Tiger Immortal, who, in high spirits, rewarded you with plenty of Human Immortal Realm demon king Flesh Essence.]

[By this time, your cultivation had reached the peak of the Third Layer of the Great Achievement Stage, and after refining Rebirth Pills, you prepared for a breakthrough in your bottleneck.]

[After six months of closed-door cultivation, you failed to break through.]

[The minor bottleneck from the early to mid-stages of the Great Achievement Stage was not easily overcome.]

[Additionally, with your physical training talent being only at the purple level, you did not have a significant advantage.]

[Your Swallow Heaven talent, which maximized the digestion of demon king Flesh Essence, allowing for the absorption of higher energy, could not assist you in directly breaking through bottlenecks.]

[After your failure to break through, you felt somewhat disheartened but quickly regained your spirit, preparing to accumulate foundational strength for another attempt.]

[Two years passed...]

[In the forty-sixth year, battles among the demon kings grew more frequent. Fortunately, the Tiger Immortal's formidable strength kept him from severe injury, maintaining the stability of the Tiger Immortal Village.]

[That year, you accumulated a substantial amount of Flesh Essence, readying yourself for another breakthrough attempt!]

[After eight months of closed-door cultivation, you successfully broke through to the Fourth Layer of the Great Achievement Stage!]

[Congratulations, you became a mid-stage Great Achievement cultivator!]

[In the forty-seventh year, you received distressing news from the Tiger Immortal.]

[In recent years, the battle between the Little Qingyun Realm and the Foreign Race had resulted in severe losses.]

[A few months ago, two Heavenly Immortal-level demon cultivators had fallen!]

[As a result, the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains became even more chaotic, with all demon kings eager to seize the territory and wealth left by the Heavenly Immortal level demons.]

[In that context, several demon kings perished within a mere three-year span.]

[Of the thirty-six demon kings that once stood in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, fewer than twenty remained...]

[In the fiftieth year, you felt a slight unease, for it was during this year in previous history that the Tiger Immortal perished and the Tiger Immortal Village was destroyed.]

[Worried about history repeating itself, you frequently reminded the Tiger Immortal to remain cautious.]

[One day, the Tiger Immortal met with the Money Demon King to discuss matters.]

[It turned out that the Golden Eagle Demon King behind the Tiger Immortal had fallen, leaving thousands of miles of territory and several spirit veins unclaimed.]

[The two great demon kings planned to take advantage of the situation, planning to expand their forces and seize resources...]
