Chapter 216: Chapter 180 Silver Middle Stage, Black Snow Country Chapter 216: Chapter 180 Silver Middle Stage, Black Snow Country Compared to the solitary Star Dust hunting in the Transversal Mountain Range, academy life was both lively and peaceful.
Learning, tasks, trials…
All freshmen at Demon Capital Academy were growing rapidly.
Su Yuan hardly left the academy.
Besides attending classes, he spent most of his time in his dormitory cultivating diligently.
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, a month and a half had passed.
It was already late June.
As early as mid-May, Xia Yue and Xiang Dingqian had both broken through to the Silver Stage.
A few days ago, Shang Baiyu, Ye Qing, and others also achieved breakthroughs successively.
The progress of the top class students was considerable.
On this day, in the academy’s Star Mist Hall, Su Yuan pushed open the door of the 7th Star Mist Pool and walked out.
The strong fluctuations of Star Power around him had not yet dissipated; surprisingly, he was even stronger than before.
He had reached the Silver Middle Stage!
“Su Yuan, broke through?” Zhang Chengyun’s eyes flashed a hint of admiration.
“Your cultivation speed is truly astonishing…”
Su Yuan smiled and bowed.
“Thank you for your guidance, Teacher Zhang.”
Back in the Demon City Holy Spring, Su Yuan had not only broken through to the Silver Level but also took a big step forward within the Silver Stage.
Now, after a month and a half of focused cultivation, his power accumulated steadily day by day, finally reaching a breakthrough to the Silver Middle Stage with the help of the Star Mist Pool today.
Of course, Zhang Chengyun’s guidance was also crucial.
He could always accurately gauge Su Yuan’s current cultivation state and give precise methods to help him use the Star Mist Pool for breakthroughs.
Su Yuan was quite grateful.
Zhang Chengyun casually laughed.
“It’s mainly because you have a high cultivation talent.
My guidance only played a small role…”
Over the year, Su Yuan and Zhang Chengyun became much more familiar with each other.
Zhang Chengyun liked this highly talented yet humble and courteous student.
“Alright then, Teacher Zhang, I’ll leave now.
I’ll visit you again when I have the chance.”
“Okay, go ahead~”
Zhang Chengyun waved his hand and then continued to read his book…
A few days later, on the second floor cultivation room of Dormitory No.
4 in the Southern First Garden.
Eight Netherfire Steel Bone Wolves surrounded Su Yuan, lunging and clawing at him from all directions!
At that moment, one of the Bone Wolf’s steel claws passed through Su Yuan as if it hit an illusion, directly penetrating.
Barely had its claw left Su Yuan’s body when Su Yuan’s fist followed through, sending it flying.
After practicing for an hour straight, Su Yuan finally stopped.
Despite the relentless attacks from the eight Netherfire Steel Bone Wolves, he remained completely unscathed.
“Not bad.
I’ve made significant progress these few days, and I’m no longer easily getting injured.” Su Yuan nodded in satisfaction.
Su Yuan was practicing “Local Transfer,” a strong and practical move that required high precision.
At first, Su Yuan summoned only two Netherfire Steel Bone Wolves to spar with and was repeatedly hit.
Now, even under continuous high-frequency, high-intensity attacks from eight Bone Wolves, Su Yuan could accurately and completely transfer without being hit again.
Moreover, from the outside, it did not appear as if Su Yuan used space transfer to avoid the hits.
It looked more like virtualization.
Su Yuan recalled the eight Bone Wolves and prepared to go out for a meal.
Just then, his phone rang.
It was a message from Yang Yifeng.
Su Yuan opened the message, thought for a moment, and then headed straight to the Book Tower.
In the Book Tower of Demon Capital Academy, on the third floor in the old place, Su Yuan hurried over.
Yang Yifeng was drinking tea and sunbathing at the table.
To Su Yuan’s surprise, another person was sitting across from him.
“Teacher, Qingyin.” Su Yuan stepped forward and greeted.
Sitting across from Yang Yifeng was Situ Qingyin.
“Su Yuan, long time no see!” Situ Qingyin smiled.
Yang Yifeng said to Su Yuan: “Sit down.”
Su Yuan nodded and sat opposite Yang Yifeng.
Yang Yifeng scrutinized Su Yuan for a few moments and smiled.
“You’ve already broken through to the Silver Middle Stage, haven’t you?
That makes this matter even more suitable.”
“Silver Middle Stage?” Situ Qingyin’s eyes flashed with surprise.
When she forged the Phoenix Perch Saber for Su Yuan, he was just at the Bronze Middle Stage.
How had he transformed into the Silver Middle Stage in just a few short months?
Situ Qingyin focused her perception and delicately scrutinized Su Yuan, trying to sense his realm.
But Su Yuan’s Breathing Level was too high, concealing his Breath too well.
So, even with her being in the Silver Stage, Situ Qingyin had no way to see through it.
Su Yuan asked: “Teacher, what is it that you called me here for?”
Glancing at Situ Qingyin, Su Yuan guessed this matter was probably related to her.
“There is something I need your help with.
I’ll let Little Qingyin tell you the details.”
Su Yuan nodded and turned to Situ Qingyin.
Situ Qingyin pondered for a moment, then said: “It’s like this.
Recently, I need to forge an Ice Star Artifact that requires a third-level material called Snow Crystal Stone.
This material is only found in the Snow Burial Mountain Range near the Black Snow Country in the north.
So, I hope to delegate a task at Demon Capital Academy to find one or two strong students to accompany me to search for it.
But Grandpa Yang recommended you straight away, saying you are already at the Silver Level…”
“Black Snow Country…” Su Yuan mused.
The whole East Continent is an elongated north-south landmass, roughly divided into northern and southern parts.
Black Snow Country is one of the countries in the south, northeast of the Great Flame.
It’s a medium-sized country, about one-third the size of the Great Flame.
Black Snow Country stands opposite Yanluo Country in the northwest of the Great Flame.
Between them lies uninhabited dangerous land and many small states and forces.
Black Snow and Yanluo are the closest medium-sized neighbors to the Great Flame in the south, and they maintain good diplomatic relations, with mutual exchanges and cooperation.
The Phoenix Nirvana Stone, Su Yuan, and Geng Qiuyi acquired was obtained by the Beidou Consortium from Yanluo Country.
Compared to the Transversal Mountain Range, Black Snow Country lies even farther to the north.
Situ Qingyin’s intention was clearly to find companions to search for materials in Black Snow Country.
“Alright, I’ll accompany Qingyin to Black Snow Country.” Su Yuan agreed without much thought.
Situ Qingyin had helped forge the top-grade Phoenix Perch Saber for him, so he wouldn’t refuse her request.
Besides, Su Yuan speculated that his teacher might have some other purpose in mind, or else he wouldn’t have recommended him to Situ Qingyin.
After all, the journey was far and time-consuming, irrespective of the risks.
And there were plenty of skilled students above Silver Stage in the higher years at Demon Capital Academy.
Situ Qingyin could easily find suitable assistants by posting a task.
Seeing Su Yuan agree, Situ Qingyin’s eyes lit up with joy.
“That’s wonderful, thank you, Su Yuan!”
Compared to unfamiliar academy experts, Su Yuan, being Yang Yifeng’s student and having interacted with her before, made Situ Qingyin more confident.
According to Yang Yifeng, although Su Yuan had only recently entered the Silver Stage, his strength surpassed most Silver Stage students.
Ɲοѵǥᴑ.сο
Yang Yifeng observed Su Yuan agree, nodding quietly.
Compared to forging the Phoenix Perch Saber, traveling to Black Snow Country was undoubtedly more troublesome, and yet Su Yuan readily accepted, showing that he was not a cold-hearted person.
Su Yuan asked: “The Snow Crystal Stone you mentioned, is it in a Secret Realm?”
If it were in the main world, with Situ Qingyin’s ability and background, she could easily find Gold Level or even Shining Star Level experts to accompany her.
The fact that she opted for Silver Level suggested the Secret Realm’s energy cap.
“Yes, it’s in a Silver Secret Realm!”
Su Yuan nodded.
Subsequently, they discussed more details.
Then Situ Qingyin prepared to leave.
“I’ll go back and get ready.
We’ll depart officially tomorrow.” Situ Qingyin smiled.
“By the way, the academic points for the task reward, I’ll transfer them to you through the academy.”
Su Yuan shook his head.
“Forget the academic points.
Consider it my gratitude for you forging the top-grade Phoenix Perch Saber for me.”
“Well…
alright then.” Seeing Su Yuan was firm, Situ Qingyin didn’t insist.
“Thank you then, Su Yuan.
See you tomorrow.”
Situ Qingyin bowed slightly and then turned to leave.
After she left, Yang Yifeng told Su Yuan: “This trip to Black Snow Country is not solely for Qingyin’s Snow Crystal Stone.
You also need to find a Snow God Lotus.
The Snow God Lotus is a representative third-level spiritual plant in Black Snow Country that only grows in extremely cold environments.
It’s likely found in the Secret Realm Qingyin is heading to.
The Snow God Lotus Heart Pill crafted from it greatly resists the Fiery Flame Power.
The Divine Fire I know of is ranked quite high.
If you aim to harvest and tame it at Gold Level, you must make thorough preparations.
The Snow God Lotus Heart Pill is an excellent choice.
If you acquire the Snow God Lotus, I will ask a friend to craft the Snow God Lotus Heart Pill for you.”
Su Yuan thought, as expected, his teacher wouldn’t let him make this trip in vain.
However, hearing his teacher mention a “Divine Fire” ranking highly piqued his curiosity even more.
“Teacher, could you tell me specifically about the Divine Fire you mentioned?”
“You rascal…” Yang Yifeng smiled, pausing.
But considering Su Yuan’s rapid growth, now at the Silver Middle Stage, Yang Yifeng pondered and decided to disclose a bit more.
“Let’s just say the specific details for now remain untold; however, its rank starts with ‘ten.'”
Starts with “ten”?
That means it ranks among the top ten Divine Fires!
Su Yuan’s heart skipped a beat.
He hadn’t expected his teacher’s Divine Fire to rank that high!
Even the lowest-ranking Divine Fires possessed immense power and mysterious functions, not to mention one in the top ten.
Seeing Su Yuan eager and apparently more motivated, Yang Yifeng chuckled.
“If you want it sooner, then train harder.”
“Yes, teacher!”
