I Can Cultivate With a Single Click!

Chapter 57 Unexpected Harvest!

“Purple-Eyed Trileaf Flower!”

Su Xiaobai’s eyes lit up.

Isn’t this one of the materials I needed for his One-Origin Heaven-Opening Pill?

Each leaf of the flower could be used once as an alchemical ingredient, and with three leaves, he could refine three pills.

“System, what are the effects of upgrading the One-Click Collection function?” Su Xiaobai asked.

“Level 2 One-Click Collection Space requires 6.4 million spiritual coins. Treasure-seeking goblin count increases by one!”

“Level 3 One-Click Collection Space requires 25.6 million spiritual coins. Treasure-seeking goblin count increases by one!”

“Level 4 One-Click Collection…”

Upgrading a level adds one treasure-seeking goblin?

This is awesome!

It’s just like the auto hunting feature: every level adds a shadow, effectively doubling the yield—what a fantastic upgrade!

“But the cost of upgrading… it increases fourfold!”

Level 1 only cost 1.6 million; Level 2 jumped to 6.4 million, and Level 3 soared to an astronomical 25.6 million. Clearly, the newer features unlocked at higher levels bring greater rewards but demand significantly more money for upgrades.

Still, compared to the effects of these upgrades, what’s money anyway?

“Upgrade it! Let’s raise One-Click Collection to Level 4 first!”

Su Xiaobai had begun to grasp a general rule.

When a system feature is first unlocked, upgrades are relatively cheap. The costs spike the higher you go. So, he decided to first max out the cheaper levels, leaving the more expensive upgrades for later when his income would be sufficient.

“Deducting 6.4 million, One-Click Collection upgraded to Level 2. Treasure-seeking goblin count increased by one!”

“Deducting 25.6 million, One-Click Collection upgraded to Level 3. Treasure-seeking goblin count increased by one!”

“Deducting 102.4 million, One-Click Collection upgraded to Level 4. Treasure-seeking goblin count increased by one!”

Three new treasure-seeking goblins appeared in the space. Without hesitation, Su Xiaobai set them to auto-deploy.

Four treasure-seeking goblins meant quadrupled returns!

“I just spent over 200 million and still have 200 million left.”

“For now, my cultivation speed and training efficiency are sufficient. Earnings are more crucial—let’s upgrade the auto-monster farming feature!”

Su Xiaobai quickly made up his mind.

“Deducting 97.2 million, Auto-Monster Farming Space upgraded to Level 6. Shadow count increased by one!”

Six shadows equated to sixfold earnings.

These shadows could not only farm monsters autonomously but also serve as Su Xiaobai’s minions, carrying out his commands. The more, the merrier!

When the levels rise high enough and he has an army of shadow minions, Su Xiaobai wouldn’t need to lift a finger to sweep through any challenge effortlessly!

“With all the upgrades complete…”

“The next priority is to purchase new techniques and gather alchemy materials!”

Su Xiaobai left over 100 million unspent, planning to use it to shop in the black market.

The black market was named as such because the prices were notoriously steep.

Still, with over 100 million in hand, he could at least afford to buy some techniques and alchemy ingredients.

Without delay, Su Xiaobai donned a black cloak and headed to the address written on the paper left by the Beast Treasure Pavilion staff—the black market’s location.

…

Meanwhile, elsewhere…

Due to Su Xiaobai’s breakthrough, the strength of his shadows surged. Without his command, the system autonomously dispatched them to regions populated by more formidable B-rank feral beasts for hunting.

Roar!!!

A thunderous roar echoed from a distant location. Even from such a great distance, the fury in the roar could be distinctly felt!

“Damn it! This ‘Sky-Sovereign White Dragon’ has been chasing me for three days and nights and still refuses to give up!”

A martial general covered in injuries was darting through the forest at breakneck speed.

His forehead, arms, and abdomen were riddled with wounds, blood oozing incessantly.

If not for the life-saving fourth-grade pill he consumed, he wouldn’t even be standing, let alone sprinting like this.

Even so, he was far from his peak combat condition. While still an advanced martial general, his weakened state made him vulnerable even to a beginner martial general.

But despite his injuries, he dared not stop for a moment.

To steal a dragon egg from the Sky-Sovereign White Dragon, the Lin family had paid a steep price!

Several intermediate martial generals were gravely injured, and over a dozen beginner martial generals had perished—a catastrophic loss. Still, the dragon egg was secured!

“As long as the Sky-Sovereign White Dragon hatches and acknowledges its master, the Lin family will dominate Base No. 18—untouchable by anyone!”

The man’s eyes gleamed as he caressed the spatial ring on his left hand, inside which rested the coveted dragon egg.

The Sky-Sovereign White Dragon, with S-rank feral beast potential, was a match for even martial commanders in its prime. A martial commander would have to tread carefully against it!

However, the dragon was in a weakened state after giving birth. With thorough preparations, the Lin family managed to steal the newly laid dragon egg.

As a result, the dragon had pursued them relentlessly for three days and nights without relenting.

“Huh? Someone’s hunting up ahead?”

Suddenly, the injured martial general noticed a figure hunting nearby.

Clad in a black cloak, wielding a long blade, and wearing a mask…

“A beginner martial master dares venture this deep into the forest?”

“Courting death!”

A flash of killing intent crossed his eyes. “Perfect timing. I’ve run out of pills, and you’re unlucky enough to run into me!”

A mere beginner martial master posed no threat to an advanced martial general—he saw the cloaked figure as nothing more than prey.

“Die!”

The martial general lunged forward, flames engulfing the longsword that appeared in his hand. A fiery slash cut straight toward the masked figure!

The cloaked figure, engaged in combat with a feral beast, seemed to sense something and abruptly turned its masked face toward the martial general.@@novelbin@@

“You can sense my strike? A promising talent.”

“Too bad—you’re doomed.”

The martial general showed no mercy.

Whoosh!

But in the next instant, the cloaked figure vanished.

“What?!”

“Where did he go?!”

The martial general’s heart sank.

His attack missed, splitting the feral beast in two and charring its flesh with fire.

A mere beginner martial master dodging my strike with such agility and speed?

“Perhaps my injuries are worse than I thought, allowing him to escape…”

He blamed his condition, thinking the foe had merely gotten lucky.

Expanding his spiritual sense, he frowned.

“Why are there suddenly five more auras of beginner martial masters?”

Looking up, he saw six identical cloaked and masked figures surrounding him, differentiated only by their weapons.

“A team effort, huh…”

“But you’re being incredibly foolish!”

“Six beginner martial masters think they can take me on?!”

“Ridiculous!”

The martial general sneered coldly. Even in his weakened state, six—or even sixty—beginner martial masters were no match for him.

The six figures didn’t bother responding, unleashing their spiritual energy in unison.

Moments later…

“Ding! Obtained loot: ‘Sky-Sovereign White Dragon Egg 1’!”

En route to the black market, Su Xiaobai had long muted the system notifications—listening to them 24/7 would drive anyone insane.

As a result, he remained completely unaware of the dragon egg that had appeared in his spatial storage.
