Chapter 571: 177 Core Formation Stage Eight Layer_2
The transformation from the Seventh Turn Golden Core to the Eighth Turn Golden Core is certainly much more difficult.
Gently shaking his head, Su Yu brought his mind to the proficiency panel.
[Cultivation: Stage 8 Core Formation Realm.]
[Lifespan: 207/1285 years.]
[Cultivation Techniques: Five Elements Method (Stage 8 Core Formation, proficiency 0.01%), Celestial Body Refinement Technique (Level 3, proficiency 96.19%), Whale Swallowing Moon Technique (Stage 3, proficiency 90%), Upper Pure Primordial Dao Law (Mastered, proficiency 91.67%)…Golden Cicada Technique (Level 4, proficiency 9.37%).]
[Spells: Wood Vine Technique (Mastered)…Yin-Yang Escape Technique(Mastered), Cicada Pupa (Beginner, proficiency 97.21%), Sky Splitting God Technique (Entry-level, proficiency 88.74%), Void Escape Skill (Beginner, proficiency 4.82%).]
This time, Su Yu spent 19 years to upgrade from the seventh level to the eighth level of the Core Formation Realm.
However, he’s only grown 15 years in actual age.
It’s equivalent to using the Epoch Technique Cicada Pupa to extend his lifespan by four years!
As for his lifespan, it has increased by a full sixty-five years!
“I have reached the eighth level of the Core Formation Realm in my mana cultivation.”
Exhaling lightly, Su Yu’s eyes gleamed with a hint of joy. While his cultivation speed might not match that of Ma Tianling, who is a natural cultivating monster, it’s not far off compared to the average geniuses.
Looking at the Celestial Body Refinement Technique behind, he frowned slightly, pondering, “I’m about to reach perfect mastery of the third level.”
Before, he had found the middle volume of the Celestial Body Refinement Technique!
Breaking through to the fourth level wouldn’t be an issue!
If the Celestial Body Refinement Technique could be promoted to the fourth level, he might indeed be able to battle a True Monarch of the Nascent Soul Realm first level!
“I’m not far from a breakthrough, seems like I need to put in more effort and strive for an early breakthrough! That would be a body comparable to the Nascent Soul Realm!” Su Yu’s eyes flashed with anticipation and expectation.
Then let’s look at other methods.
The Upper Pure Primordial Dao Law still holds the master level, not far from perfection.
Su Yu felt that to evolve the Eighth Turn Golden Core, it might be necessary to first improve the proficiency of the Upper Pure Primordial Dao Law to perfection, the opportunity for breakthrough was there.
After so many years of practicing the Golden Cicada Technique, its progress slowed down a lot compared to the third level.
But Su Yu felt that his soul had become much stronger.
Perhaps it’s not far from another upgrade!
For the spells below, the proficiency of Epoch Technique Cicada Pupa and others had improved a bit.
But compared to ordinary spells, these amazing spells improved their proficiency much slower.
Having finished his daily cultivation, Su Yu dismissed the Epoch Technique Cicada Pupa and emerged from retreat.
That night, he prepared a lavish banquet again, celebrating his cultivation breakthrough with Lin Qingxia, Lin Bing, and Yang Yumin. Their days passed quite beautifully.
More than a month later, Su Yu returned to the Immortal Palace again.
At the peak of the Great Fool.
As Su Yu walked along the small stone path in the forest to the mountainside, he was surprised to find a new wooden cabin next to his stone cave dwelling. He was slightly taken aback: “Huh?”
“Whoosh! Whoosh!”
At this time, a crimson-purple figure descended from the sky, while a deep purple figure drilled out from the ground, both coming to Su Yu’s side.
“Squawk!”
Taixu landed in front of Su Yu, its body was more than thirty feet tall, much larger than before. Still in the shape of a ball.
Arriving in front of Su Yu at this moment, it let out a restless cry, with a hint of sentiment.
After all, its master, Su Yu, hadn’t been seen in a long time, how long since it had last been fed? Can’t you see it’s gotten much thinner?
The Sky Thunder Rat, Demon King, didn’t dare to have any sentiment. He burrowed out from underneath the ground and bowed respectfully to Su Yu, “Master, you’ve returned.”
“Mm.”
Su Yu called out his Refining Qi Pot, and with a flick of his finger, two drops of fourth-rank lower class Spiritual Liquid split and each flew towards Taixu and the Sky Thunder Rat Demon King.
When Taixu and the Sky Thunder Rat Demon King smelled the strong spiritual energy on the fourth-rank lower class Spiritual Liquid, their eyes lit up, and they both opened their mouths to swallow the droplets of Spiritual Liquid.
“Boom!”
As the fourth-rank lower class Spiritual Liquid entered their stomachs, it immediately turned into an overwhelming amount of energy flowing through their bodies.
Both Taixu and the Sky Thunder Rat Demon King couldn’t help but cry out in comfort.
With food now.
Taixu immediately let out a joyful squawk, nothing was better than being fed by its master.
The Sky Thunder Rat Demon King bowed its head: “Thank you, master, for the gift, hehe.”
Su Yu looked at the small courtyard and asked, “What’s happening here?”
The Sky Thunder Rat Demon King’s eyes flickered, “Master, have you forgotten? The Lord previously took on a new apprentice and asked your Master to take care of him for a while. This is the courtyard your apprentice nephew built.”
Well, something like that happened?
Su Yu indeed forgot. On reminiscing, it seemed that his Master had mentioned it. He hadn’t taken it seriously before.
At this time, a white figure appeared not far away.
Her long skirt fluttering, her three-thousand strands of hair were swaying in the wind, a black silk ribbon tied around her waist, accentuating her graceful figure.
Su Yu turned to look, his eyebrows twitching lightly.
Her face was like a peach blossom, her lips red, her eyes as beautiful as a phoenix, a faint smile on her face. She was enchanting, like the blooming of peach blossoms, but Su Yu saw a hint of scrutiny in her eyes.
She came before Su Yu, gently bent down to pay respect, her voice as clear and ethereal as an oriole: “Fan Xiao pays her respects to Little Uncle Yu.”
Su Yu’s eyebrows relaxed, and he laughed lightly, “No need for formalities.”
Fan Xiao straightened up and looked at Su Yu again, her eyes slightly flickering, “Little Uncle Yu is younger and more attractive than I imagined.”
Su Yu gently shook his head, “I am going to pay my respects to my Master. Do you want to come?”
Fan Xiao replied: “Yes.”
The two of them walked towards Taoist Tianyu’s fenced courtyard, talking as they walked. During their conversation, Su Yu surprisingly found that Fan Xiao was actually from the Fan family, a cultivation family in the Diling Xian city.
The Fan family?
Su Yu recalled that Lin Bing had mentioned that a female cultivator from the Fan family in Diling Xian city had come to seek cooperation in Alchemy.
Is she from the same family as this apprentice niece?
He did not ask much, nor did he talk about the black market.
As they entered the fenced courtyard, they chatted with Taoist Tianyu for a while, and at Fan Xiao’s request, he sparred with her once.
This little apprentice niece was extraordinarily gifted and, according to her, she possessed a heavenly spiritual root.
When he had returned previously, he had heard that she was at the first level of the Core Formation realm. But this time she had already reached the second level of the Core Formation realm.
And his Master, Taoist Tianyu, said that relying on the Upper Pure Primordial Dao Law, Fan Xiao’s golden core had already undergone three transformations.
Such a talent is truly extraordinary!
Su Yu sparred with Fan Xiao at the same cultivation level of the second-layer Core Formation realm. After a round of ‘intense’ fighting, Su Yu barely won by a move, forcing Fan Xiao to retreat and defending his dignity as an older martial brother.
During Su Yu’s stay at the Immortal Palace, Fan Xiao sparred with him from time to time.
They both won some and lost some.
Half a year later, the mission of the Immortal Palace was completed.
Su Yu quickly said goodbye to Taoist Tianyu and left some resources for Taixu and the Sky Thunder Rat Demon King. He then left the Immortal Palace and returned to the black market in the Ten Lords Xian City, escaping from Fan Xiao’s harassment.
This little girl was quite young, not even ninety years old.
Still at the age where she loved competition, coupled with her own competitive nature, she was simply too persistent.
Unable to cope with her, Su Yu could only avoid her.
A year later.
Su Yu appeared at the Shijun Xian city’s ground immortal mansion’s base and met Luo Qianyu, Taoist Qingquan, and Taoist Shuhai. The two sisters, Zhang Mengdie and Zhang Mengyao, were also there.
Everyone was sitting next to a stone table in the courtyard, boiling tea around a stove.
Luo Qianyu looked at Su Yu with a somewhat curious gaze, “What have you been busy with recently?”
Su Yu shook his head lightly, “I’ve been traveling around, seeing if there are any good fortunes to be found.”
Taoist Qingquan covered his mouth and laughed, “Didn’t you go to see your little apprentice?”
Luo Qianyu laughed lightly, still looking at him.
Su Yu replied, “I saw her once.”
After chatting for a while, Luo Qianyu spoke of the purpose of their gathering, “The Wanxian Palace will soon open a public ruin. Do you want to go and see?”
“I heard that the ruin was left by the former Tianxian mansion, and it may contain opportunities for forming infant souls.”
Su Yu’s heart stirred after hearing this. After some thought, he decided to go to the Wanxian Palace with Luo Qianyu and others. But he wasn’t going for the ruin; rather, he wanted to see if the Xian city around the ruins or other major Xian cities in the Wanxian Palace had any materials for the transmission array to collect.
Over the years, his operation of the Yunxiao Dange in the black market of the Shijun Xian city had accumulated almost one million medium-grade spirit stones.
But the collection of materials for the transmission array was difficult. If he wants to gather all the materials, he would have to put in some effort!
