Chapter 218: Ten Years Later: Sudden Changes in Immortal City
Chapter 218 – Ten Years Later: Sudden Changes in Immortal City
Somewhere in the secret realm of a cave in the Desolate Domain.
The moment True Lord Hongtu fell, someone in the secret realm immediately noticed this and reported upwards, “Elder, Daoist Youquan has fallen.”
The figure with a white evil beast mask covering his face raised his head, and in an instant, the heaven and earth around him seemed to change, and the YuanYing True Lord in front of him felt a sense of suffocation, and his heart seemed to be pressed against a mountain of 10,000 pounds of Immortals, making it difficult for him to catch his breath.
“You Quan . He seems to be an elder of the First Immortal City of the Yu Dragon Palace, right? What mission did he receive, and who killed him?” The Green Prison Immortal Hall Elder’s voice was ethereal as he said.
That YuanYing True Lord respectfully said, “Not long ago, someone issued a bounty with a lower-grade magic treasure, wanting to capture Earth Immortal Palace’s Heavenly Fool Daoist disciple Su Yu alive.”
“Daoist Yuquan claimed this task, and not long ago the divine soul imprint left behind by Daoist Yuquan was shattered, confirming that his body was dead.”
“As for the reason and who else did the killing, this still needs to be investigated to be clear.”
The Green Prison Immortal Hall Elder was silent for a moment before he leisurely said, “Pass this matter back to the employer and ask them to increase the reward. In addition, find out who actually killed him, and also, find out the information about that Heavenly Fool Daoist’s disciple.”
“Yes, Elder.”
The Green Prison Immortal Hall had a unique tracking method, and it didn’t take long to find out where True Lord Hongtu had fallen, and although Su Yu had already roughly cleaned up the battlefield, the Green Prison Immortal Hall was still able to recover it and deduce the conditions of that battle at that time.
“Daoist Youquan laid down a party of great formations in an attempt to ambush his target, but his trail was detected by his target, the great formations didn’t come in handy, and Daoist Youquan had to take matters into his own hands.”
“But the target’s strength – or rather, there was someone beside the target to protect the Dao – suddenly appeared and knocked him down from mid-air to the earth, suffering a serious injury.”
“The Youquan Daoist was unable to escape his opponent’s means, and was knocked down to the earth again and again until his flesh was shattered.”
“The other party should have captured Daoist Youquan’s YuanYing alive and wanted to search his soul, but touched the prohibition that the Immortal Hall had left in Daoist Youquan’s YuanYing, and Daoist Youquan’s YuanYing blew itself up, blowing up this barren forest.”
“Intelligence records: one, the target has a peak YuanYing battle power beside him, able to easily kill a late YuanYing True Lord.”
“Two, the target’s position in the Earth Immortal Mansion is by no means simple, someone is guarding the Dao by his side, or is a latent Dao Son of the Earth Immortal Mansion.”
“Three, the difficulty of dealing with the target is adjusted to pseudo-fifth rank.”
One by one, the intelligence information was corrected, and as the Green Prison Immortal Hall’s stronghold in the Desolate Domain landed its gaze on Su Yu, more intelligence information about Su Yu was checked out by the Green Prison Immortal Hall and summarized and rectified one by one.
By the time it landed in the hands of that elder of the Green Prison Immortal Hall, it became a complete intelligence information of Su Yu.
“Fourth Order Lower Grade Formation Master, Alchemist, Talisman Master, Puppet Master Cultivation is shown externally as the fifth level of the JieDan Realm, with the true cultivation unable to be glimpsed? Or the early stage of the Yuan Ying Realm?”
“More than a hundred years ago, in the Great Moon Mansion in the remote area, there was a touch with the Immortal Hall, and at that time, his cultivation was at the third level of the JieDan Realm?”
“Five elemental upper grade spiritual roots, condensed Jindan Dao Foundation.”
Reading down the entire intelligence information, the Green Prison Immortal Hall Elder was deep in thought.
From the perspective of a spiritual root talent like Su Yu’s five elemental upper grade spiritual root, it was a completely unimpressive talent, but if one looked at the fact that all four of Su Yu’s Hundred Arts of Immortal Cultivation had all reached the fourth rank lower grade level, it was a bit terrifying.
And from these Hundred Arts of Immortal Cultivation realms to invert Su Yu’s cultivation, it was indeed possible to push out the cultivation of the early YuanYing realm.
Because for general geniuses, it was usually the cultivation that broke through that level first, and then after that, they would little by little raise the realm of the Hundred Arts of Immortal Cultivation to a level that matched their cultivation.
A two-hundred year old pre-YuanYing realm True Lord was still practicing the four paths of alchemy, talismans, formations, and puppets all at the same time, and had all reached the lower fourth rank level.
This talent, it was extraordinary.
The lack of spiritual root talent could also be slightly ignored.
After pondering for a long time, the Elder looked up at the men in front of him and said, “Send a messenger to liaise with him, pull him into the Immortal Hall, and he can be promised a Heavenly Token status.”
The henchman carefully said, “Is that reward still posted?”
The Elder said, “Has the employer increased the reward?”
The henchman said, “It’s been increased, two lower-grade magic treasures, plus two million middle-grade spirit stones.”
The Elder pondered for a moment and said, “Release it, one lower-grade magic treasure plus one million middle-grade spirit stones. Remember to remind the person receiving the mission that the target might have a protector around them, so if you want to deal with the target, you need to be patient and find the right moment.”
The underling even said, “Understood, Elder.”
Subsequently, the two of them talked about other things in the Desolate Domain, the huge Green Prison Immortal Hall Desolate Domain stronghold, there were not a lot of things that needed to be busy, a small heavenly pride in the Earth Immortal Mansion, and a small bounty was just one of the small and insignificant things.
Fourth Immortal City.
Five years have passed in a flash of time.
For five years, Su Yu hadn’t taken half a step out of the Fourth Immortal City, and stayed in his cave on weekdays, with daily cultivation, sensing the Dao Domain, improving the Five Elements Skill, alchemy, drawing talismans, sensing formations, and so on, occupying his entire daily routine.
And hibernating in the Fourth Immortal City for almost twenty years, the strength of the Earth Immortal Army under Fan Xiao’s command gradually increased a bit, and if before it was still at an unimpressive level, then now it was at least already considered to be a qualified Desolate Domain army.
With a few more decades of cultivation, it could definitely occupy a place in the Desolate Domain.
In the cave.
Su Yu was experimenting on the body of Li Zhong, the former Fourth Elder of the Star Picking Tower, little by little constructing a restriction on his Yuan Ying.
This was a kind of divine prohibition recorded in that fifth-ranked top-grade array master inheritance of the Star Picking Building, that is, the once Star Picking Elder Ancestor, who had laid a prohibition on several YuanYing True Lords of the Hundred Flowers Sect, named Heavenly Divine Prohibition.
Prohibitions and formations were actually somewhat similar, but compared to formations, prohibitions were definitely much more subtle, and to set up a prohibition, one needed to master the wonderful use of one’s own mana, divine soul, and the power of heaven and earth.
It is more in tune with the natural power of the heaven and earth.
The Heavenly God Prohibition was a prohibition that was specifically used for the divine soul or YuanYing, ranging from the lower grade of the fourth order to the upper grade level of the fifth order.
Currently, the Heavenly God Prohibition that Su Yu was testing and sensing on Li Zhong was precisely at the Fourth Order Middle Grade level.
After spending nearly two hours, along with a fluctuation of the divine soul as well as the power of heaven and earth coming from it, the Heavenly God Prohibition was successfully laid, Su Yu slowly sighed in relief and looked at the trembling Li Zhong, “Try it out, how long will it take to break open this time.”
Li Zhong was a little bit numb and panicked, “Master, next time can we find Qin Ke Xin that woman to try?”
He tried many times ah!
With a prohibition like this, if he accidentally blew up, then he would have to be seriously injured and wasted if he didn’t die.
This meow is simply heartless, how to use their own try it, he has been kneeling very thoroughly ah.
Su Yu’s eyes condensed, “What, are you unsure about my prohibition?”
Li Zhong was startled, and even said, “That’s definitely not, the master’s craft of forbidding has no predecessor and no successor, no one can match.”
“It’s just that I think ah, such a good thing, should also let Qin Ke Xin taste it.”
Su Yu glanced at him and said, “Then you tell her about it.”
Li Zhong smiled sarcastically at his words, how could he tell her to her face, he was not that woman’s opponent, if he said that, he was not looking for a fight and looking for death.
Let Li Zhong re-enter the magic weapon palace to try to break open the Heavenly God Ban in his body’s YuanYing.
Before and after, Su Yu had already placed four prohibitions on him.
In the beginning, Li Zhong only used half a month’s time to break through the Heavenly God Prohibition.
However, the second time, it took him a full year. The third time, it took a full three years.
This was the fourth time, and Su Yu felt that his perception as well as proficiency of the Fourth Order Middle Grade Heavenly God Prohibition had risen to an extremely high level, and with further practice, he might be able to imprison a late YuanYing Realm True Lord like Li Zhong for ten or eight years.
“With this means, one would be able to have a somewhat restraining means against YuanYing Realm like Qin KeXin and Li Zhong.”
“Even if they truly have dissenting intentions, one would be able to take their lives at any time.”
Of course.
What Li Zhong said was also somewhat reasonable, he couldn’t be the only one to suffer such a good thing.
Immediately.
Su Yu called Qin Ke Xin out of the Dharma Artifact Palace, appearing in Su Yu’s cave, Qin Ke Xin was startled and all had a bit of a stress reaction, her face slightly pale.
Looking at Su Yu for a moment, only then did she react, fluttering down towards Su Yu, kneeling down with a lowered brow and head hung down respectfully, “Master.”
Su Yu waved his hand, “Come over.”
Waiting for Qin Ke Xin to carefully move in front of himself, Su Yu drank again, “Let go of your mind, don’t resist.”
Qin Ke Xin’s pupils shrunk, her face paled for another point, but she indeed didn’t quite dare to resist Su Yu’s orders anymore, so she lightly bit her red lips, let go of her entire mind, and let Su Yu dispose of her.
“Buzz!”
Su Yu closed his eyes, his body’s vast abyss-like five elemental mana catalyzed, and under the pull of the power of his divine soul he began to set up a prohibition on Qin Ke Xin’s body.
As if in an invisible heaven and earth, Su Yu used his mana as the foundation and his divine soul as a carving knife, little by little carving and laying down a side of heaven and earth divine prohibitions, and one by one, invisible lines were branded on Qin Kexin’s YuanYing body.
Eventually converging to form a whole, like a cage, enveloping Qin Kexin’s YuanYing.
Less than two hours.
The Heavenly God Ban was completed!
“Buzz!”
Along with the light blazing and flashing, that one prohibition easily converged and contracted into the depths of Qin Kexin’s YuanYin and lurked away without Qin Kexin’s resistance.
With this prohibition, Su Yu was even able to spy on what Qin Kexin’s mind was hiding.
When Su Yu placed the restriction, Qin Kexin sat paralyzed on the ground, her complexion dulled for a few moments.
She knew that with this restriction, she would really become a fish and meat in the future, at Su Yu’s mercy.
Su Yu didn’t care what she thought, after laying down the divine prohibition, he similarly said, “Try to impact this prohibition after you go back, and see how long it takes for you to break through this prohibition.”
Qin Ke Xin’s eyes widened slightly, looking at Su Yu in a bit of shock.
Then she reacted, her face color changing several times.
This was to use himself to practice and cultivate this divine prohibition?
Qin Ke Xin’s heart was filled with grief and anger, but there was nothing she could do about it, coupled with Su Yu’s repeated strikes and taming over the years, her former self-esteem had long been shattered, and only obedience remained within her.
Therefore, Qin Ke Xin could only obediently hang her head and respectfully said, “I will follow my master’s orders.”
Taking Qin Ke Xin back into the Palace of Magical Artifacts as well, Su Yu sipped a cup of spirit wine and continued to cast the Age Road Domain, comprehending a peculiar fourth-order mid-grade Grand Formation from the Formation Master’s Inheritance in the Age Road Domain.
This fourth-order middle-grade array is called the small five elements Qi Men array, small five elements refers to the human body’s five elements of spiritual roots, Qi Men has three odd eight doors.
Small Five Element Strange Gate Grand Formation, that is, the five element strange gate grand formation laid down with the cultivator as the base of the formation.
This array of thousands of variables, open the door, Huomen, Shengmen, injury door, Duomen, Jingmen, death door, shocking door, with the three odd, B, C, D, the variables have thousands of nearly ten thousand kinds.
If the Earth Immortal Army can lay down this great formation, its power is definitely not to be underestimated.
If he were to use himself as the leader, together with the Earth Immortal Army to manipulate this formation, Su Yu felt that perhaps he himself would be able to trap and surround and kill True Lords in the late YuanYing realm, or even at the peak of the YuanYing realm.
Only, it was alright for such a formation to teach the Earth Immortal Army, but Su Yu himself did not really need such a formation to add to it.
After all, it was not easy for the Earth Immortal Army to practice such a formation.
After the Earth Immortal Army had practiced it, perhaps, he himself would be able to easily capture and kill late stage YuanYing realm True Lords.
Not to mention, he still had the Black Turban Rex in his hands.
Of course, he himself didn’t need it, but Daozi Fan Shin should need it, and making Fan Shin stronger would be beneficial to him.
After comprehending this formation for a period of time, Su Yu began to teach the Earth Immortal Army this great formation in the city, allowing Fan Shin to follow the Earth Immortal Army’s cultivation, striving to control this Small Five Elements Strange Door Formation as soon as possible.
Once he succeeded, even though Fan Xiao’s cultivation was still a bit poor, he thought that he should have no problem competing with the Daozi of other Immortal Cities or the Daozi of other powers.
After Fan Xiao and the others had become slightly more skillful, Su Yu stopped staring so often and continued to enlighten himself on the Dao of Formation.
There were dozens of nearly a hundred fourth-order mid-grade formations in that door’s inheritance, enough for Su Yu to comprehend for a long period of time.
Another five years passed.
In terms of the Five Elemental Technique, Su Yu had fused more than twenty YuanYing realm Five Elemental Techniques into it, and the current Five Elemental Technique had more than doubled in power compared to before.
And after these years of cultivation, the Five Elemental Technique was not far from the third level of the YuanYing Realm, so perhaps a few more years of cultivation would be enough.
In terms of alchemy, Su Yu already had complete control over the refining of each of the fourth-order mid-grade elixirs, with proficiency reaching more than fifty percent, and the proficiency of some commonly used elixirs had already reached perfection.
In terms of talismans, Su Yu had drawn fourth-order medium-grade Mirror Moon Talismans, Divine Beheading Talismans and other talismans.
In terms of formations, Su Yu had also managed to comprehend more than ten fourth-order mid-grade large formations.
As for his own Dao Domain, the Five Elemental Dao Domain was steadily rising, moving towards the Grand Dao Domain little by little.
As for the Spatial Dao Domain and Age Dao Domain, they had made some progress, but they were still far from condensing the Dao Domain Origin and integrating it into the Five Elemental Dao Domain, and currently, Su Yu still didn’t have a clue on how to fuse the Dao Domains.
The other side.
The Earth Immortal Mansion’s Second Immortal City Daozi had entered the Land of Extinct Spirits for almost a year with his 1,500 Earth Immortal Army when suddenly, the soul tablets they had left behind in the Immortal City all shattered.
Upon seeing this scene, the elders of the Second Immortal City’s scalp instantly went numb and their people were confused.
Ps: the end of the month, begging for monthly votes, from two thousand monthly votes is still quite a bit short, one thousand monthly votes can be raffled off once, once can be an additional one hundred manuscript fee, please please please.
Ps: this book has been renamed from “Immortal Dao Evergreen: I Skillfulness Become Immortal” to “Everlasting Taoist Monarch: There is no bottleneck in my cultivation”.
