The reason why Su Zimo wanted to stop refining elixirs was because he no longer needed it.
Similar to weapon refinement, Su Zimo no longer had to waste time on it now that he could refine inferior-grade spirit weapons.
There were two months left to the year end face-off.
At the moment, Su Zimo's cultivation was at Level 7 Qi Condensation.
Coupled with the perfect elixirs he had refined previously, it was not going to be an issue for him to reach Level 9 Qi Condensation by the end of the year. However, Perfected Qi Condensation was impossible for him.
At Perfected Qi Condensation, the dantian would open up like a vast sea of qi and one would be much stronger than at Level 9.
That was something that required elixirs, spirit stones and a long period of cultivation. Even cultivators with heaven spirit roots were no exception to that rule.
