Chapter 583: 183 Promotion to Fourth-Order Alchemist, Rune Master_2
Once the steam evaporated, the potion gradually dried up, transforming into one after another blood-red medicinal pill.
Two hours had passed.
When Su Yu withdrew his alchemy flame and smacked his hand on the cauldron, the lid instantly flew open with a hum. He utilized pill collecting skill, and four blood-red pills flew out of the alchemy cauldron as four beams of light, landing in front of him.
In an instant, a strong, peculiar fragrance of the medicinal pill permeated the entire alchemy chamber.
Looking at the four fourth-rank low-grade Beast Spirit Pills in front of him, a slight smile appeared on Su Yu’s face.
It was a success on the first attempt!
Moreover, he ended up with four pills. Although the overall quality of the pills was not great, not even a single one of them was of fine quality. But it was his first time concocting fourth-rank low-grade Beast Spirit Pills!
Being able to succeed on the first attempt was beyond his expectation.
He felt the depletion of his spiritual sense and mana: “Not bad, mental exhaustion isn’t too great — less than 10 percent. The mana depletion was a bit greater, but it was only a bit over 20 percent, I can still safely concoct three batches of Beast Spirit Pills!”
Other alchemists would probably be envious to tears if they saw this outcome.
After all, Su Yu was only at the eighth stage of the Core Formation Realm!
Some alchemists could not even concoct a third-rank high-grade medicinal pill when they were at the eighth stage of the Core Formation Realm.
Let alone using Core Formation Realm cultivation to produce fourth-rank alchemical pills.
Taking advantage of his good state, Su Yu concocted two more batches of fourth-rank low-grade Beast Spirit Pills. One batch managed to produce pills, while the other ended up as waste pills. However, in the successful batch of pills, there now appeared a high-quality fourth-rank low-grade Beast Spirit Pill.
After concocting three batches of pills, Su Yu cleaned up the alchemy chamber, concluded today’s alchemy session, and went into the Artifact Palace.
In a spiritual water pool within the Artifact Palace, Su Yu found the Over Sea Mystic Turtle, which had already grown to a size of more than ten feet. Its deep blue carapace was covered with mystical patterns. Although its aura was only of the mid-third rank, its menacing aura was even more terrifying than the Sky Thunder Rat, which was of the upper third rank.
Truly deserving of a spirit beast bloodline that dominated over the Lingling Marine Region in the Ancient Era!
Splash!
Sensing Su Yu’s arrival, the Over Sea Mystic Turtle stuck its head out of the water and looked at him with sparkling eyes, thereby opening its mouth to wait for its feed.
“What a foodie!” Su Yu mumbled under his breath.
He fed the Over Sea Mystic Turtle two of the fourth-rank low-grade Beast Spirit Pills that he had just concocted.
The Over Sea Mystic Turtle sniffed the unusual fragrance of the fourth-rank low-grade Beast Spirit Pills, found them to be just adequate, swallowed them at once. It wasn’t even enough to fill its gaps between teeth, so it opened its mouth wide again.
“It’s a good thing your owner is substantial. Otherwise, who could afford to feed you!” Su Yu patted the head of the Over Sea Mystic Turtle.
He then fed it two more Beast Spirit Pills and a drop of fourth-rank medium-grade Spiritual Liquid.
With the medicinal power of the four Beast Spirit Pills bursting in its body and the vast Spiritual Energy of the fourth-rank medium-grade Spiritual Liquid sweeping through its body, the Over Sea Mystic Turtle comfortably stretched its claws, immediately retracted its head and limbs and sank to the bottom of the pool to sleep.
Eating and sleeping, this was the normal life of the Over Sea Mystic Turtle.
Although it cost quite a lot to feed the Over Sea Mystic Turtle, Su Yu could feel its increasing strong aura, and a gleam of light shone in his eyes.
In another ten years or so, it should be able to reach the upper third rank cultivation level!
This speed— phew.
“Even Daozi of the Immortal Palace, whose spiritual body cultivation speed probably can’t compare to the Over Sea Mystic Turtle, right?” Su Yu whispered under his breath, becoming more and more expectant.
Who would win if the Over Sea Mystic Turtle were to fight Daozi?
Thinking about this, Su Yu’s eyes sparkled.
Yes.
He should cultivate the Over Sea Mystic Turtle even further.
If Daozi provokes him in the future, he would let him fight the Over Sea Mystic Turtle!
If he can’t even win against one of his tamed beasts, what kind of spiritual body is he?
In the following period.
Su Yu would take time out every day to concoct fourth-rank medicinal pills. These fourth-rank medicinal pills have not been sold, but have all been fed to the Over Sea Mystic Turtle.
Thanks to Su Yu’s unhesitant feeding, the Over Sea Mystic Turtle’s cultivation level rapidly improved.
One year later.
Su Yu had raised his proficiency with the ten commonly used fourth-rank low-grade pills to 30 to 40 percent. After that, he began to try to make fourth-rank low-grade charms.
First, he attempted to test the Mirror Moon Symbol.
The Mirror Moon Symbol’s inheritance he originally received, contained a four-layer Mirror Moon Symbol.
However, compared to the three-layer superior Mirror Moon Symbol, a four-layer inferior Mirror Moon Symbol’s complexity could be described as skyrocketing, requiring a deep understanding and control of the spatial force that goes beyond mere surface knowledge.
But fortunately, after cultivating the Void Sky Escape Skill, Su Yu’s understanding of the spatial force has become increasingly profound.
With Su Yu’s current mastery of spatial power, it wasn’t difficult for him to create a four-layer inferior Mirror Moon Symbol.
After going through nearly forty pieces of four-layer inferior symbol materials, he finally successfully drew a four-layer inferior Mirror Moon Symbol.
The quality was mediocre, it was just an ordinary four-layer inferior Symbol.
However, under the power of this Mirror Moon Symbol, even a True Monarch of the Nascent Soul Realm’s third layer may potentially be trapped for a moment.
Five years passed by.
Inside the Cloud Sky Pill Pavilion.
Lin Qingxia greeted a manager from a large consortium of the black market and said with a polite smile, “Sorry, Manager An, our Pavilion Master really does not entertain guests.”
The man across her kept a straight face, laughing lightly, “That’s not necessary. All you have to do is pass the message to your Pavilion Master, the doors of our Wanbao Business Association are always open to him.”
“Joining the Wanbao Association will only bring benefits to him.”
“Although there are many rules in the black market, sometimes, rules are dead, people are alive. It’s not that easy to establish oneself here.”
After that, the shopkeeper left.
The backyard.
Su Yu fed the batch of four-layer inferior quality Beast Yuan Dan he had refined today to the Sea Covering Mysterious Tortoise, then checked the four-layer inferior talisman in hand.
‘There were thirty-two regular quality four-layer inferior Mirror Moon Symbols, and nine of fine quality.’
‘Among other talismans like Invisibility, Xuanjia Zhen, Godspeed, and God Escape etc., there are overall one hundred and sixteen four-layer inferior talismans.’
Su Yu was quite pleased with the base he has accumulated over these years.
With these items, plus magic artifacts and other methods, Su Yu was fearless even when facing an ordinary True Monarch of the early Nascent Soul Realm.
Including the True Monarch of the Nascent Soul Realm’s third layer.
Even if there was an accident and he was overwhelmed, he would not have any problems withdrawing calmly.
His strength foundation has greatly improved in just a few years.
As he walked out of the secret room, he saw Lin Qingxia coming towards him.
Lin Qingxia was tall and was wearing a purple dress. The purple ribbon around her waist outlined her full-bosomed figure, giving an intense visual effect.
After being with Su Yu for a few years and having rested and cultivated, Lin Qingxia’s temperament has become more mature and ethereal, her skin fair and tender.
No one would ever guess that she was once a sold-off female cultivator
However, at this moment, Lin Qingxia looked worried. Seeing Su Yu she revealed a bit of joy in her eyes, as if she found her backbone, and hurried up, “My Lord.”
Su Yu slightly scrunched up his eyebrows and said, “What happened? Has something gone wrong?”
Lin Qingxia quickly explained, “The shopkeeper from the Wanbao Association came. He wants you to join the Wanbao Association. He also emphasized that even though the black market has rules, it’s not easy to establish oneself here without a representative background. He wants you to think about it carefully.”
“Once you’ve made your decision, you can meet him at the Wanbao Association.”
Upon hearing the name Wanbao Association, Su Yu’s expression hardened. There are quite a few major forces in the black market, including this Wanbao Association.
As far as he knew, there’s a True Monarch from the Nascent Soul Realm’s pinnacle level backing the Wanbao Association.
Being watched by such a force was not good news for him.
However.
If it were just ordinary Core Formation cultivators or even early-stage Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, they would be intimidated by the Wanbao Association.
But he is not a loose cultivator anymore. His own master is a Nascent Soul Realm’s pinnacle existence, and the owner of the Immortal Palace is his senior brother.
A trifling merchant association daring to act arbitrarily in front of him?
Su Yu thought of this and quickly strategized a countermeasure in his mind.
