Chapter 60: Bad News
Chapter 60 Bad News
The deaths of Wu Zhigang’s several people did not cause any ripples, and even the other neighbors in the hutong did not notice anything wrong.
Su Yu’s daily life remained the same, practicing the Cang Mu Age Wheel Technique, the Crocodile Demon 108 Styles of Body Refinement, and the Golden Cicada Technique every day.
The Blood Whale Moon Swallowing Technique, a unique technique, had quietly risen to the second realm not long after the body refining technique broke through the tenth layer.
Right now, Su Yu was accumulating the power of the core of the second realm by taking demonic beast essence blood, roasting demonic beast meat, and eating spiritual rice every day.
The Blood Whale Moon Swallowing Technique of the second realm was capable of exploding an additional two times the strength of the physical body.
That is, the first realm Blood Whale Moon Swallowing Technique’s power after the outbreak was 1*2.
While the second realm was 1*3.
Su Yu didn’t know with his current physical body strength, how long he would be able to support himself after bursting out with three times his power before reaching his limit.
Or rather, whether he could support the state under the triple power outburst.
At the Foundation Establishment Realm level of power, almost every ounce of power difference would be very large.
A difference of 10% in power was enough to crush the opponent.
An outburst of three times that amount of power-
As long as one could hold on, even if it was just for a short period of time, it would be a chaotic kill alright.
Therefore, why the Heaven Swallowing Whale Demon Race could become one of the Ancient Sea Hegemonies, its bloodline aptitude was the main reason.
To later on why the Heaven Swallowing Whale Demon Race would become extinct, this bloodline aptitude was definitely the main reason as well.
The Blood Whale Moon Swallowing Technique might have been a trigger.
It was also worthy of the name of a pseudo divine ability.
“The Cang Mu Age Wheel Technique is estimated to take around eight years to reach the ninth turn of a round, while the Crocodile Demon 108 Styles Body Refining Technique may take ten years to reach the eleventh layer.”
“The progress of the Golden Cicada Technique is getting slower and slower, and reaching the second layer is still a long way off.”
“I still don’t know if I can withstand the outburst of the second realm of the Blood Whale Moon Swallowing Technique, for the time being, it’s already the limit.”
“Then…”
Su Yu pondered, with a few moments of hesitation, “In addition to the subjunctions of alchemy, talisman painting, and refining puppet beasts, should I practice other subjunctions?”
“Or perhaps, train another attribute technique?”
He carried five elemental spiritual roots, although they were all just five elemental lower grade spiritual roots, very well balanced.
But this also meant that he could cultivate all five attribute techniques.
And so far, he had only cultivated a wood-attributed Cang Mu Age Wheel Technique, and the other four elemental spiritual roots were still in an idle state.
If it was an ordinary Immortal Cultivator, Su Yu would definitely not dare to cultivate the five elemental techniques and would only specialize in them.
But with the Proficiency Panel, his daily cultivation was easy, and he could just practice step by step.
Now every day, the Cang Mu Age Wheel Technique only needed to be cultivated for an hour or so before reaching its limit.
The rest of the time allocated to the Body Refining Technique, Golden Cicada Technique, and even the three side disciplines of Alchemy, Talisman Painting, and Puppet Beasts didn’t take half a day.
That’s still half a day.
Previously, there were reasons for not considering cultivating techniques with other attribute spiritual roots, such as lack of time, lack of resources, and so on.
And now, the Cang Mu Age Wheel Technique and other techniques required more and more time to improve.
If one wanted to additionally raise their strength, then it was time to consider other attribute spirit root techniques or other side jobs.
Other than that, the power of dual-attribute spells was stronger than single-attribute ones.
For example, the fifth grandfather, Su Bin, he cultivated the earth and wood dual attribute spiritual root.
“Wait and see before saying anything, let’s see if there is a good secondary inheritance or a good ancient technique.” Su Yu suppressed the various thoughts in his mind.
There was no rush.
Five days after the Dao Body Puppet returned from the Yuanyang Desert Ridge, Yu Ke’er arrived and brought her first rank top grade top cultivation harnessed beast, the Heavenly Green Python, over as well.
“Originally, I was quite hesitant to let the Heavenly Green try to break through to the second rank, as I already have a Twin-headed Blood Eagle pre-two rank harnessed beast in my hands.” “There’s a high chance of failure if I let Tianqing try to break through again, and what I’m saying is that there’s a chance that Tianqing will lose control during the breakthrough.”
“However, now that I have you watching from the side, I think it will be much more stable.”
Yu Ke’er was filled with anticipation as she stroked the head of a demonic beast with a turquoise scaled python beside her with one hand.
The Heavenly Green Python belonged to the top second stage demonic beast bloodline, and was relatively rare.
And the double-headed blood eagle was equally so.
The fact that she, a descendant of the Yu Family, was able to possess two harnessed beasts with notable bloodlines already showed the depth of the Yu Family, a Beast Harnessing Immortal Cultivation Family.
After swallowing the wood-attribute demon core elixir, the Heavenly Green Python began to attempt a breakthrough in the secret room.
The front was fine, the Heavenly Green Python was quietly lying on the ground absorbing the medicinal power of the demon core elixir, but after the Heavenly Green Python started to try to break through, Yu Ke’er’s face suddenly changed.
Almost at the same time, the Sky Green Python changed its calm stance, and its body erupted with a demonic beast’s berserk aura, as if it was going to go berserk to get rid of its control.
However, the next moment, the Earth Fire Ape that had long been on standby directly rushed up.
Both arms ruthlessly pressed down on the Heavenly Green Python.
It was like grabbing a small earthworm.
There was also the Black Scaled Eagle as well as Yu Ke’er’s pre-second stage harnessed beast, the Double-Headed Blood Eagle, guarding beside it, and the two pairs of four eagle eyes stared intently at the Sky Green Python, which was shivering and almost pissing itself in fear.
Only then did Su Yu cautiously step forward, using the mana of the Cang Mu Age Wheel Technique to dissolve the raging aura of the Heavenly Green Python’s bloodline.
In this way, after another hour or so.
“Boom!”
The Heavenly Green Python smoothly broke through and became a Pre-Second Stage Harnessed Beast.
Before leaving, Yu Ke’er quietly left a message to act as a thank you gift: “Half a year from now at the Spirit Hall Auction in the Moon Worshipping Immortal City, our family will take out two Empyrean Spirit Fruits and put them up for auction.”
When the Yu Family and the Huang Family went to war in the Eight Demon Ridge, that matter was a big deal.
The end result was that the Yu Family had captured the Empyrean Fruit Tree.
Now that the Yu Family had taken out two Empyrean Fruits for auction, perhaps they had the idea of calming the effects of this matter.
Eating alone would easily attract people’s hatred and anger.
“Empyrean Fruit.” Su Yu’s heart stirred slightly when he heard this, and after thinking for a moment, he sent a letter borrowing the Cloud Sword Sect’s channels to send this news back to the Su Family.
If there really was an Empyrean Spirit Fruit, then the Su Family could have someone come to participate in this auction and take one as much as possible.
As long as he could take one, he would be able to open the furnace to refine the Foundation Establishment Dan.
With his current alchemy, even if it was his first time refining a Foundation Establishment Pill, the probability of success would be more than fifty to sixty percent.
It was worth a try.
On the other side, Yu Ke’er familiarized herself with the Heavenly Green Python that was harnessing the beast after breaking through the early second stage cultivation level.
Every day, she took good care of it and deepened her connection and control with the Heavenly Green Python with her Beast Harnessing Technique.
More than a month later, the Heavenly Green Python suddenly molted its skin and two small claws grew on its abdomen.
Yu Ke’er and the crone Huang Hai frieze looked at the metamorphosed Heavenly Green Python in shock: “Third, third-order bloodline!?”
Hutong, courtyard.
Nearly two months after Wu Zhigang’s ‘disappearance’, the True Palace finally came to the cultivator to check Wu Zhigang’s whereabouts and asked everyone in the hutong.
But without exception, they all said that Wu Zhigang had never returned after going out that day.
The True Palace could not find out anything and had to give up.
After all, although Wu Zhigang had joined the True Palace, he was only a first-rank upper-grade talisman master.
Going missing wasn’t a big deal.
After more than five months, Su Zhi appeared in the Hutong of the Moon Worshipping Immortal City, and in addition to bringing the spirit stones that the family wanted to auction off the Empyrean Fruit, she also brought a piece of bad news.
