Chapter 89 – 100,000 Spirit Stones Eight Years of Substance (10K Requests Subscription)
The first layer of Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation was still too weak, perhaps able to gain a foothold in the Cloud Sword Sect’s territory, but it was estimated that it would be a bit of a stretch in the Great Moon Black Market.
The strength of that Heavenly Market Hall Cultivation Whispering Daoist just now was terrifying, especially in terms of speed, it was by no means comparable to an ordinary Foundation Establishment Realm third layer cultivator.
“There are many capable people in the world.”
“There are many who are stronger than themselves, and there are even fewer heavenly prides.”
“Never be arrogant and complacent.”
So after Su Yu thought for a moment, he secretly said in his heart, “The next step is still to focus on cultivation, the Dan Pavilion will be put on hold for now, with the proceeds from the Eight Demon Ridge Workshop, the resources are actually enough to support cultivation for a period of time.”
“My own advantage lies in the future, in terms of longevity, I can afford to wait.”
“So, there can’t be any rush, first raise your cultivation strength.”
His mind was awe-inspiring, and his state of mind resumed the same composure that he used to have in the Cloud Mountain Marketplace.
Subsequently, his mind probed into the jade slip in his hand, and there wasn’t a lot of information inside.
For example, in the big moon black market sitting in the big moon palace jiDan powerhouse dao name for ‘strong wine Taoist’, alcoholism, temperament when quiet as the old well deep pool, when violent as the fire burning body, sitting in the black market has been eight years time.
Twenty years a rotation, that is to say, he still has to sit in the black market for twelve years.
In addition to the Great Moon Palace, the Great Moon Palace dominant forces, the Great Moon Black Market, there are ten forces respectively occupy the core area of some third-order spiritual veins cave.
Such as the Kaiyang Palace, the Sword City Qin Family, the Xuan Formation Immortal Sect, the Beast Harnessing Li Family, the Geomancer Ma Family, and the Dan Master Li Family.
These families or forces all possessed JieDan Realm existences.
In addition.
Big Moon Black Market in addition to the various forces of the cave, but also divided into inside and outside the two big market, outside the market is more chaotic, you can arbitrarily set up stalls, how you how to make trouble how to rob things do not matter, the inner market by the Big Moon Palace and other forces to sit together and maintain, who make trouble who die, of course, but also just have the order aspect of the requirements of the other things do not care about anything else.
Yu family’s cave is relatively close to the inner market, when the black scale eagle arrived above the cave, below a group of refining realm Yu family members have come out to meet.
The area of the cave is not large, counting the spiritual mountain and a small water pool next to it, the circle is less than five miles in size.
After entering the cave, underneath the spiritual mountain they reclaimed some good spiritual fields.
Yu Lin Feng, an old man of the Yu family who had stayed in the cave for a long time at the Qi Refining Realm, respectfully followed behind Su Yu and Yu Keer, introducing the current situation of the cave.
“The cave mansion has reclaimed twenty-six acres of spirit fields, which are usually planted with spirit rice, enough to maintain the daily needs of the cave mansion’s personnel.”
“There are also twelve acres of medicinal fields on the mountain, of which there is one acre of good medicinal fields in the blessed land, and that spiritual soil is enough to grow second-order upper-grade spirit medicines.”
“The cave house currently has twenty-three people, all of them are at the Qi Refining Realm cultivation level, I am the only one at the ninth level of the Qi Refining Realm, and all of them are not young, I am already eighty-four years old this year, and the youngest of the others are already in their fifties.”
“By the way, next to that small ice tan there is a kind of ice scale fish, it’s a kind of spirit with excellent taste, if Miss and Auntie are interested, you can go ahead and fish during your leisure time, that place can only be fished because it’s too deep, it’s so deep that you can’t see the bottom.”
Waiting to walk up the spiritual mountain that was at the center of the cave, a small blessed estate was built at the core of the spiritual vein at the top of the mountain.
Yu Lin Feng carefully looked at Su Yu and asked, “Auntie this time, you want to open a Dan Pavilion here?”
“If that’s the case, then I think I can head to the inner market to set up a small store, the inner market has the Great Moon Palace to keep it under control, there has never been any chaos, the outer market can’t, it’s a mess.”
Su Yu shook his head and said, “For the time being, don’t open it, meditate for a while and then talk about it.”
Just like this, Su Yu, Yu Ke’er, Yu Qianqing and the others temporarily settled down in this cave.
All other thoughts Su Yu suppressed, and on weekdays, apart from cultivation, he was instructing Yu Qianqing, Su Rui’an and the others in alchemy, and then he was strolling around the cave mansion or the black market outside, familiarizing himself with this place.
In the Yu family cave near there is another cave, this neighbor is not which immortal cultivation family or force, but six second-stage hundred arts cultivators jointly rented a cave, with an alchemist, an artifacts refiner, a talisman master, a puppet master, a formation master, a spiritual plant master, the cave named Hundred Treasure Mountain.
The cave was named Hundred Treasure Mountain. The array master was the head of the Hundred Treasure Mountain because he was a second-order top-grade array master.
The remaining alchemists, talisman masters, and spirit plant masters were second-order mid-grade.
The Alchemist and Puppet Beast were only Second Order Lower Grade.
A month after moving to the Great Moon Black Market Cave Mansion, Su Yu brought a thin gift with Yu Ke’er and a few others to walk up the Hundred Treasures Mountain to visit a few neighbors.
In fact, Su Yu mainly wanted to meet that second rank upper grade array master.
The cave mansion’s mountain protection array was only a set of second-order medium-grade arrays, and if he could, he planned to replace it with a second-order top-grade array.
However, there was no rush, and it would not be too late to decide after understanding how famous that formation master was.
After returning to his cave, Su Yu stopped going out and collected his thoughts to cultivate.
In a flash of time, more than a year passed.
“Buzz!”
Inside the secret room, Su Yu sat cross-legged and cultivated the XuanMei Thick Earth Technique, after the CangWu Yearning Wheel Technique had broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, the XuanMei Thick Earth Technique’s cultivation had been progressing by leaps and bounds, with proficiency growing at a rate of several times or even ten times the rate.
Now, the proficiency of the Xuanhe Thick Earth Skill was on the verge of breaking through the tenth layer.
With Su Yu taking the Perfect Quality Qi Refining Pill and the rich heaven and earth spiritual qi provided by the second rank spirit veins.
The XuanMei Thick Earth Skill kept running, and the earth attribute mana in his body grew rapidly, gradually approaching the limit of Qi Refining.
It was only a short two quarters of an hour.
“Buzz!”
Suddenly, the earth attribute mana in Su Yu’s body collapsed and abruptly changed, like an earth ball that suddenly compressed and quenched after accumulating to a certain extent, and gradually, a Foundation Establishment Seed that had shrunk by almost ten times coalesced.
This Foundation Building Seed was somewhat like a piece of thick earth land, and a reckless and thick atmosphere emerged.
At the same time.
Su Yu’s aura changed once again.
The Golden Cicada Dharma was in operation, the radiant golden aura of the divine soul reflected all over his body, and Su Yu’s mind was ethereal.
Countless insights into earth attribute techniques, mana, and spells surfaced one by one in his mind, combing, metamorphosing, fusing, and eliminating.
Borrowing the epiphany that occurred in the split second when the Xuan Di Thick Earth Technique broke through the Foundation Establishment Realm, a thought suddenly surfaced in Su Yu’s mind.
The Earth and Wood Skill was rudimentary, but it was a framework for the fusion of the Earth and Wood dual attribute techniques.
Then, could he incorporate the Xuan Di Thick Earth Technique and the Cang Mu Age Wheel Technique into it?
“How would this be incorporated? How should the mana operate so that there would be no conflict?” Su Yu thought of quite a few questions.
More than an hour later.
The aura of the breakthrough of the Xuan Di Thick Earth Technique gradually internalized in Su Yu’s body, so that his wood attribute mana and earth attribute mana had both reached the first level of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
And after more than an hour of enlightenment, Su Yu already had a bit of an idea of fusing the techniques in his heart.
The next step was only to verify them one by one to see if they could go through.
Under the excitement, Su Yu chose to continue his seclusion, and while continuing to perceive that ancient cultivator’s earth and wood dual attribute inheritance, he began to study the matter of integrating the XuanMei Thick Earth Technique and CangWu Age Wheel Technique into the Earth and Wood Technique.
In addition, those earth and wood dual attribute spells in the inheritance, Su Yu also began to cultivate.
Now that both the earth and wood dual attribute mana had reached the first level of the Foundation Establishment Realm and was able to maintain a balance, if he could cultivate the earth and wood dual attribute spells, his strength would definitely be able to have a great increase.
Far away in the Eight Demon Ridge Golden Jade Immortal Sect Ruins.
Within the secret territory.
In the middle of a mountain range, Luo Qianyue’s figure floated and stood in the air, her white dress moving with the wind like a fairy, but it was just a pity that the breath on her body was icy cold, as she looked down on a group of Huang family cultivators below.
Luo Qianyue’s complexion was as cold as an ice mountain, and her voice was capable of freezing people’s hearts: “Who is the White Family’s old ancestor?”
The voice echoed in the mountain gullies.
The faces of the crowd of Huang Clan cultivators all changed and snapped their heads up to look.
In the crowd, a Huang Clan late stage seventh level Foundation Establishment Realm old ancestor’s heart thumped as he looked at Luo Qianyue with a grave expression and said in a deep voice, “What kind of misunderstanding does Fairy Luo have about my Huang Clan? We don’t have any Bai family ancestors here.”
Luo Qianyue looked at him with cold eyes, completely ignoring what he said.
Her eyes then locked onto Bai Chen whose face had changed in the crowd, then Luo Qianyue stared at the Bai family’s old ancestor and said coldly, “I owe a favor to the Su family, so he can’t continue to live, and it’s best for the Huang family to stay out of it.”
Bai Chen’s face turned white and his mind was confused, “?”
In the next moment, he turned around and fled as a flying sword appeared to carry him backwards at great speed: “Whoosh!”
“Buzz!”
Luo Qianyue just glanced at him blandly, then her mind moved, and in a flash, the heaven and earth killing tribulation descended.
One of the Huang family’s Foundation Establishment Realm faces changed drastically, and that Foundation Establishment Realm 7th level old ancestor was shocked and furious, shouting violently, “How dare you! Luo Qianyue, even if you’re from the Cloud Sword Sect, how dare you do this to my Huang family-“
Before he could finish his words, his complexion changed drastically.
Waving his hand, a defensive formation flag was laid down, forming a layer of second-order top-grade defensive formation in front of him.
Bang!
In the next instant, endless metallic sharp blades coalesced.
While he was laying down a defensive formation for himself, this metallic storm had already strangled Bai Chen, who had just flown high into the air, and even more so, it had violently blasted the formation laid down by this Huang Family’s seventh tier ancestor, and the entire person flew out horizontally, and while he was in mid-air, he couldn’t stop spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.
When he stopped his body, Luo Qianyue’s silhouette had long disappeared into the distance.
“This matter has nothing to do with the Huang family, tell your family’s old ancestor not to seek his own death.” Luo Qianyue’s ice-cold voice poured into his ears.
“Cough cough cough!” The Huang family’s old ancestor suffered a heavy wound, under the shock and anger, he even coughed up blood continuously, his eyes were bloodshot with anger, he couldn’t bear it anymore and waved his hand down and collapsed an earth mountain next to him, countless trees and boulders crumbled.
He tilted his head and shouted angrily, “Luo Qianyue, Cloud Sword Sect, you’ve bullied people too much! Deceiving people too much!”
In the four directions, some Immortal cultivators who heard the commotion all looked sideways, their minds reeling.
This Cloud Sword Sect Luo Qianyue’s strength was truly terrifying!
Soon, the dao body puppets that were far away from the Eight Demon Ridge’s workshop heard the news, and the dao body puppets were shocked, “Cloud Sword Sect’s Grand Elder’s own disciple, Luo Qianyue, clashed with the Huang family and beheaded an Immortal Cultivator of the 3rd Foundation Establishment Layer named Bai Chen?”
What happened?
How did Luo Qianyue move to kill the Bai family’s ancestor?
After the shock.
Su Yu pondered that this matter might have something to do with the fact that he had refined the Fine Foundation Establishment Pill for Luo Qianyue before, and Luo Qianyue owed him a favor, perhaps knowing about the Bai Clan’s matter, so she chose to step in to solve this hidden danger for the Su Clan.
Sure enough, after more than a month, Su Yu, who was far away from the Great Moon black market, received a letter from Su Zhi, which informed him that Luo Qianyue had killed Bai Chen and returned his favor, solving the hidden danger of the Su family.
Su Yu secretly smacked his lips, “This fellow Daoist Luo, is really strong, in front of the Huang family, he directly killed the Bai family’s ancestor.”
Although this was returning a favor, but having completely solved the hidden danger of the Bai family’s old ancestor, Su Yu felt that he was still earning.
Su Yu then wrote back, thanking Dao Friend Luo for his intervention and removing the future danger for the Su family.
“The White Family’s old ancestor is dead, so those things in one’s hand can be taken out for a shot.” Su Yu secretly pondered, other than that top-grade magic weapon, the Golden Luo Umbrella, all the other magic weapons could be taken out for sale.
In this way.
In the next half a year, Su Yu secretly went out time and time again, selling those magic artifacts of the Bai Family in his hands, as well as that second-order lower-grade puppet beast that had changed its appearance, to a store in the outer workshop market.
In the end, he obtained more than thirty five thousand lower grade spirit stones.
After completing this matter, Su Yu once again settled down to cultivate in the cave, sensing the fusion of the earth and wood dual attribute techniques.
And in addition to his daily cultivation, he also secretly collected all kinds of materials he needed in the Great Moon Black Market, including the materials for the second-ranked middle-grade puppet beast ‘Twin-winged Thunder Serpent’.
This kind of puppet beast material was more precious, with more core materials, so if he wanted to collect them completely, it was estimated that it would take at least a few years.
In terms of materials alone, it was worth at least ten thousand lower grade spirit stones.
A white horse passed by, and time passed like a shuttle.
Inside a cave chamber in the Great Moon Black Market, Su Yu tried time and time again to integrate the Cang Mu Age Wheel Technique and the Xuan Ming Thick Earth Technique into the Earth and Wood Technique, starting from the first layer of the Refined Qi Realm Technique to fuse them together, and every time he failed to make a mana movement, it could induce a disturbance of the breath in Su Yu’s body.
But that was only the fusion of the first level of the Qi Refining Realm, he was still able to control and endure.
After half a month, Su Yu laughed a few times, “Success.”
Another month later, Su Yu coughed his face a little pale, but his eyes were all excited, “The techniques of the second level of the Qi Refining Realm, they are also fused in.”
Three months.
Half a year.
A year later, after Su Yu experienced one mana conflict coughing up blood, he finally managed to integrate the Cang Mu Age Wheel Technique and the Xuan Hei Thick Earth Technique, two techniques at the sixth level of the Qi Refining Realm, into the Earth and Wood Technique, and his complexion grew paler and paler.
“One’s own thoughts are right, this earth and wood skill is a root framework, wanting a dual attribute earth and wood technique that is suitable for one’s cultivation, then one has to create it with one’s own perception and fusion over and over again.” Su Yu sighed in his heart, it was just that this method was a bit injurious.
Five years later.
Cave Mansion.
Su Yu took out a Fine Foundation Building Pill and handed it to Yu Qianqing, smilingly saying, “Go on, relax a bit and try to break through at your most complete state, your foundation is very solid, and your vital energy has long since recovered to its peak, so there’s no need to worry.”
“Uhm, don’t worry Pavilion Master, I will succeed.” Yu Qianqing looked deeply at Su Yu, then received the Foundation Establishment Pill, took a deep breath and turned around to go back to seclusion.
A long time ago Yu Qianqing had once failed to make a breakthrough.
Therefore, Yu Qianqing’s heart was still a little afflicted about breaking through the Foundation Establishment Realm.
After entering the secret room, Yu Qianqing looked at the fine Foundation Establishment Dan in her hand and said in her heart, “If I fail again this time, I’ll leave myself.”
She was already not young, over fifty years old.
If she failed to break through the Foundation Establishment Realm twice in a row, then her lifespan might not even be a hundred, and even with the Facial Resilience Pill and the Facial Nourishment Pill, it wouldn’t take long for her body to rapidly age.
Instead of that, it would be better to leave early without any regrets.
Lost in thought for a moment.
Yu Qianqing cultivated on her knees until half a month later, when she resolutely took the Foundation Establishment Pill and began to attempt a breakthrough at her peak state.
Outside.
Su Yu and Yu Ke’er were both escorting her, Yu Ke’er looked towards the direction of the secret room from time to time, even with the assistance of the fine Foundation Establishment Pill, she still couldn’t help but feel a little worried for Yu Qianqing in her heart.
“Can Qianqing succeed? It must be possible.” Yu Keer was a little anxious.
Seeing this, Su Yu slightly shook her head and changed the topic, “The Double-Headed Blood Eagle and the Heavenly Green Python have already broken through the Second Order Middle Grade, right? When are you going to go in to the Great Moon Ridge to look for Second Order Middle Grade demonic beasts?”
Yu Ke’er’s cultivation had reached the second level of the Foundation Establishment Realm four years ago, and her progress was quite acceptable.
And more than half a year ago, the cultivation of her two harnessed beasts, the Two-Headed Blood Eagle and the Heavenly Green Python, both made breakthroughs and reached the middle grade of the second rank.
This speed was only slightly slower than the Black Scaled Eagle and Earth Fire Ape.
Yu Ke’er’s appearance had not changed much from before, and she was still the same young girl she had first seen in the past, but in the past few years, she gradually had a mature and charming atmosphere.
Just like her mother Luo Qingya, in addition to the similarity in appearance, that kind of temperament is also more and more similar.
Yu Ke’er looked towards Su Yu and said, “The Heavenly Ruins Palace knows the trail of a second-order mid-grade demonic beast, the Tiger in the Clouds, whose bloodline is still good, so after Qianqing succeeds in her breakthrough, I’ll go and look for it.”
Su Yu pondered for a moment and said, “Tell me that location and I’ll capture it back for you, just don’t go in and risk it.”
Yu Ke’er snorted a smile, like a blue rosebush suddenly blooming, in that moment she looked like she had returned to the time when she was in her teens and twenties.
Yu Ke’er looked at him and said in amusement, “It’s not like we’re going deep into the Great Moon Ridge, should we be like this?”
Su Yu nodded heavily and said, “It’s important for you to break through the second rank middle grade Beast Master, so it’s necessary to catch a second rank middle grade demonic beast and come back. As for taking risks? That is completely unnecessary.”
“Strength is fundamental, as for the process of how the strength is raised who cares? When you become a Third Order Beast Master and then look back at today, what do you think an ordinary Second Order Demonic Beast is?”
“In case there are any accidents, it would be more than worth it.”
Yu Ke’er listened to Su Yu’s long-winded speech and obediently nodded and smiled, “I’ll listen to you, only, fellow Daoist Su, if I don’t go out, and you don’t go out, then who’s going to go and catch it back?”
She was curious, but Su Yu kept his mouth shut and didn’t reveal it.
The next day.
“Boom!”
A breath broke through the bottleneck of the Qi Refining Realm, causing the secret room formation to tremble, and the two people, Su Yu and Yu Ke’er, who were guarding the law outside, sensed the commotion, and their faces instantly revealed joy.
After nearly twenty years, Yu Qianqing’s second impact on the Foundation Establishment Realm had finally succeeded in breaking through.
Far away in the Eight Demon Ridge Workshop.
The old Taoist incarnation of the Dao Body Puppet dished out his stall to Li Ping Whore and then disappeared from the Eight Demon Ridge Marketplace.
The second-order mid-grade demonic beast information given by the Heavenly Market Hall was called the Tiger in the Clouds, a tiger demon with two wings on its back, with an okay bloodline, able to grow to the top of the second-order top-grade demonic beast, and its location was probably in a cloudy canyon on the outskirts of the Great Moon Ridge.
Specifically is not, that still need to look for some to know.
More than a month later, the Dao Body Puppet came to the outside of the Great Moon Ridge, looked up and looked down at the high mountains and steep hills that were covered in clouds and mist in front of it, and it rushed straight into it.
Great Moon Black Market, Cave Mansion. Secret room.
As Su Yu sensed the subtleties of the dual-attribute mana and techniques of earth and wood, at the back of the room, his fusion of the two techniques into the earth and wood skill had gradually smoothed out, and he was also able to experiment with the techniques on a small scale within his body, and no longer needed to spit out blood to injure his body.
Now that five years had passed, he had fused the two gong methods of the ninth level of the Qi Refining Realm into the Earth and Wood Secret.
It was not far from the first layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm’s gong methods.
Right now, Su Yu was running the Cang Mu Age Wheel Technique to cultivate wood attribute mana.
Along with the countless heaven and earth spiritual qi pouring into his body, gradually transforming into the Cang Mu Yearning Wheel Technique’s mana, his body’s aura was rising by the slightest bit.
On the proficiency panel, the proficiency value of the Cang Mu Yearning Wheel Technique was changing little by little.
Until one hour later, the value reached 100%.
Immediately after that, the words on the proficiency panel quietly changed: [Technique: Cang Mu Age Wheel Technique (Second Wheel, Second Turn, Proficiency 0.01%)].
Buzz!
Countless heaven and earth spiritual qi scrambled to drill into Su Yu’s body, his body’s aura rose greatly, his cultivation had finally risen to the second layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm after nine years of breaking through the first layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm in the past.
Su Yu ran his gong method to cultivate for more than two hours to consolidate his cultivation.
He then opened his eyes and looked at the proficiency panel.
He only saw that after the Cang Mu Age Wheel Technique cultivation breakthrough, his longevity had changed again.
[Longevity: 59/232.]
Looking at this information, a trace of surprise flashed through Su Yu’s eyes, “The longevity has increased by nineteen years.”
The total lifespan had reached two hundred and thirty-two years, which was a lifespan that would only be found at the ninth level of the normal Foundation Establishment Realm.
Su Yu pondered, “At this rate, wouldn’t one’s lifespan be able to reach three hundred and seventy-eighty after reaching the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm? Hiss.”
“It is estimated that the early stage of the JieDan realm is also this kind of lifespan.”
He took a deep breath, the Cang Mu Age Wheel Technique was indeed worthy of being a technique inherited from the ancient times.
This life extension effect is truly terrifying.
His divine sense looked deep into his body at that second age ‘wheel of years’, as the Cang Mu Age Wheel Technique reached the Second Wheel, Second Turning realm, that second wheel of years had obviously gotten a bit deeper.
The wood-attribute mana in his body flowed through the year wheel, and that mana was also enhanced by that much.
After the Cang Mu Yearning Wheel Technique broke through to the second level of the Foundation Establishment Realm, the rate of enhancement of the Xuan Di Thick Earth Technique had once again increased greatly, with the daily proficiency growth being several times that of the previous one, and it was estimated that it would only take less than a year before he would be able to complete the breakthrough and reach the second level of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
It’s just that-
Su Yu frowned lightly and said, “The technique XuanMei Thick Earth Technique is only available up to the fourth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm, so if there is no follow up technique, then one can only look for another earth attribute technique to take its place.”
Thinking of this, Su Yu thought of the Crocodile Demon 108 Styles Body Refinement Technique as well as the Cang Mu Age Wheel Technique.
The Body Refining Technique and the Cang Mu Age Wheel Technique were both techniques that had been passed down from the ancient times, but were crippled.
The Body Refining Art currently only had eighteen styles and was able to be cultivated to a level comparable to the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
The Cang Mu Age Wheel Technique only had three rounds totaling twenty-seven revolutions, and could be cultivated to the ninth level of the JieDan Realm.
Su Yu secretly said in his heart, “We have to start looking for a follow up technique, if we really can’t find one, then we have to search for a fixed back path and find a suitable replacement technique.”
In this way, Su Yu thought of two places, the Heavenly Book Pavilion as well as the Heavenly Market Hall.
“Find some time to ask.” Su Yu got up and left the gate to go.
His cultivation had broken through, so next, he planned to forge the second rank middle grade puppet beast ‘Twin-winged Thunder Snake’.
This kind of puppet beast was equally strong, with dual attribute power of wind and thunder.
Although it couldn’t compare to the Dragon Crocodile Puppet Beast in terms of defense, it was far beyond the Dragon Crocodile Puppet Beast in terms of speed and strength, and this Puppet Beast was also capable of flying for a short period of time.
On the other hand, half a month after the Dao Body Puppet entered the Great Moon Ridge, it finally found a second-order mid-grade demonic beast, the Tiger in the Cloud, in a cave in that Cloud Canyon.
Su Yu who was forging the puppet beast in the cave murmured in a low voice, “Found it.”
“Huh? What’s going on here?”
As the dao body puppet entered the cave, Su Yu stopped forging the puppet beast with a slight start.
In the cave, only to see the original second-order mid-grade demonic beast Yunzhong Tiger’s breath was extremely weak at the moment, almost two feet tall body lying on the ground, there were two one-foot-sized cubs without opening their eyes were yada yada yada drinking milk.
“Gave birth to cubs? The information given by the Heavenly Market Hall on this Tiger in the Clouds demonic beast is a pregnant female tiger?” Su Yu was surprised in his heart.
This was a ‘buy one get two free’ ah.
Buzz!
The Dao Body Puppet appeared silently, and in his hand, a God Fixing Talisman was inspired, transforming into a spiritual light that instantly entered the brow of the Yun Zhong Tiger that had suffered a great deal of damage to its vitality, and at that instant, this Yun Zhong Tiger’s eyes rolled over and fainted on the ground.
Easily, the Dao Body Puppet captured this second-order middle-grade Cloud Tiger alive.
Afterwards, the dao body puppet fed it a sufficient amount of second-order psychedelic drug, put it and the two little tiger cubs into a beast harnessing pouch, and turned around to leave.
Only, the dao body puppet did not realize that there was a blood red plant growing at the end of the cave.
Two days later, the dao body puppet handed over the beast harnessing bag to Su Yu, and then did not leave, but was taken back to Su Yu’s dantian for containment.
The business over at the Eight Demon Ridge Workshop Market had gradually gone downhill, with more and more stores and vendors, the revenue had dropped more than tenfold, so over there, in the future, it would be enough to leave it to Li Ping Whore alone to dispose of.
As for the Dao body puppet, it could shut down for a while, absorbing some of the materials he had collected for it in the Great Moon Black Market.
Seven days after Su Yu handed over the three mother tiger cubs in the clouds to Yu Ke’er, Yu Ke’er successfully harnessed the mother tiger beast in the clouds and was promoted to a second-order mid-grade beast master.
On the second day, Yu Ke’er discovered some abnormalities of the Tiger Mother Beast in the Cloud, its spiritual intelligence seemed to be beyond imagination, it was able to know how to cultivate, and it was basically the same as a human being, but it just didn’t understand the language of a human being yet.
This caused Su Yu, Yu Ke’er and Yu Qianqing to be startled.
When it could speak, wouldn’t that make it a demon race?
A demon race that would actively cultivate and a demon beast that would only instinctively cultivate were two different things!
Moreover, the bloodline of the demon race was far from being comparable to that of ordinary demonic beasts.
This is equivalent to the difference between an Earth Spiritual Root Heavenly Pride amongst the human race, and an ordinary Lower Grade Spiritual Root Immortal Cultivator.
Su Yu looked at Yu Ke’er and said with a few moments of joy, “It seems that you will soon be able to become a Second Order Upper Grade Beast Master.”
Yu Ke’er successfully promoted to Second Order Middle Grade Beast Master, Su Yu began to forge the ‘Twin Winged Thunder Serpent’ Puppet Beast without any distractions, and in his spare time, he researched Second Order Middle Grade Pills and Talismans, his days were very fulfilling.
Half a year later.
Su Yu’s forged ‘Twin-winged Thunder Snake’ puppet beast was ready to be completed, at this time, the next door Hundred Treasure Mountain Cave’s second-ranked middle-grade spiritual planter, ‘Paper Kite Fairy’, came to visit.
The Spirit Planter, the Hundred Arts of Immortal Cultivation, was very inconspicuous, and in the beginning, Su Yu had learned what was equivalent to a Spirit Planter Apprentice.
It was only that when he first learned that it was the foundation he learned in order to become an alchemist.
And to be able to reach the middle grade of the second rank of Spiritual Plantsmith, that could be said to be quite a powerful one.
Basically, as long as there were seeds, she would be able to cultivate spiritual plants of the second rank mid-grade and below, and even when she encountered some rare spiritual plants, the Spiritual Planter also had the means to ”ripen” them, accelerating the growth of the spiritual plants.
Of course, this kind of acceleration is all within a reasonable range, and is very labor intensive, not something that can be done casually.
The ‘Paper Kite (yuan) Fairy’ did not look different from an ordinary young woman, and could have a face value of about six or seven points, not as good as Yu Ke’er, except that there was a natural ethereal atmosphere on her body, as well as the flavor of a young woman, which still looked quite special.
It was also the first time for Su Yu to see a Spirit Plant Master, a hundred arts cultivator.
Inside the manor hall.
Su Yu and Yu Ke’er received the Paper Kite Fairy, and the butler Yu Lin Feng served the Paper Kite Fairy with spirit tea, then respectfully retreated.
Paper Kite Fairy did not drink the tea, but instead looked at Yu Ke’er and congratulated her with a smile, “I heard that Fairy Yu has become a second-order mid-grade beast master? I congratulate you.”
The two of them, Su Yu and Yu Ke’er, frowned lightly, they had not spread the news of Yu Ke’er’s promotion to second rank middle grade Beast Master.
Seeing this, Immortal Paper Kite smiled and said, “It’s the information from the Heavenly Market Hall, I asked them for a suitable candidate for a Beast Master, and they recommended Immortal Yu to me, and as it happens, we are still neighbors, so I came to pay a visit.”
Su Yu frowned and said, “Fellow Daoist Paper Kite has important matters?”
Fairy Paper Kite nodded her head and said, “The Great Moon Black Market’s once every eight years auction will take place in about half a year, and I heard that this auction will be of an unprecedented scale, and there will be a lot of treasures appearing.”
“So, before the auction starts, I’m teaming up with two fellow Daoists from Hundred Treasure Mountain and plan to make a trip into the Great Moon Ridge.”
“I don’t know if you two fellow Daoists have heard of the ‘Mystic Immortal Vine’ spirit plant? It’s an auxiliary material for refining the Haotian Pill, and as it happens, I know of a place where the Misty Immortal Vine will grow.”
Saying that, Fairy Paper Kite observed the expressions of both Su Yu and Yu Ke’er, seeing that the two of them revealed a small amount of surprise, she smiled with satisfaction in her heart.
Paper Kite Fairy continued, “As long as we are able to gain something inside, coupled with the large-scale auction in the black market in half a year, if we meet something we desire at that time, we will also be able to auction it off, won’t we?”
“So, Fairy Yu–“
Su Yu interjected, “I’m sorry, Fellow Daoist Paper Kite, although we are also very interested in the Mystic Immortal Vine, we can’t leave at the moment, so we can only heartily accept this kind invitation of yours.”
Immortal Paper Kite frowned lightly and glanced at Su Yu, she did not say anything but instead turned her gaze to Yu Ke’er.
Su Yu, this Foundation Establishment Realm second layer, second rank lower grade alchemist, she felt that she did not have much weight to speak yet.
Therefore, when she spoke before, she spoke to Yu Keer, a Second Order Middle Grade Beast Master.
But Yu Ke’er met her gaze and smiled blandly, “He makes the call.”
Paper Kite Fairy’s brows furrowed as she looked towards Su Yu’s politely rejecting smile, thinking for a moment she still stood up and said, “Fairy Yu should still think about it, my invitation is still valid for ten days.”
“This trip as long as we can find the Misty Immortal Vine, then none of our harvests will be small.”
Afterward, Fairy Paper Kite excused herself and left.
Only after this person left the cave did Su Yu look at Yu Ke’er and said, “What this person said isn’t all true, the way she looked at us was a bit off, it was like,” After practicing the Golden Cicada Method, his senses had always been sharp.
Su Yu hesitated for a moment and said in a colder tone, “It’s like she’s looking at prey.”
Paper Kite Fairy returned to Hundred Treasure Mountain after leaving Su Yu’s cave.
Just as she returned, her Dao Couple, Second Order Middle Grade Alchemist ‘Shi Hai Dan Shi’, asked a little impatiently, “How is it? Have you answered the call?”
Another second-order mid-grade talisman master from Hundred Treasure Mountain, ‘Daoist Red Moon’, had a refined aura flickering in his eyes as he also looked at Immortal Paper Kite.
And in the depths of his eyes, the ‘Red Moon Daoist’ also had a touch of greed coloring his eyes towards the Paper Kite Fairy.
Although Paper Kite Immortal’s appearance was not considered a peerless beauty, it was not bad either.
Coupled with that natural aura of a spiritual planter and the charm of a young woman in her body, a few other people from the Hundred Treasure Mountain had a bit of an idea about her.
Paper Kite Fairy frowned, “No, I explicitly invited them to go searching for the ‘Mystic Immortal Vine’ together, but they surprisingly still shrugged it off.”
Dancer Shi Hai’s face changed at the words and gritted his teeth, “Still really cautious, these are two fat sheep ah, all these time they didn’t have a livelihood, but they struck out in the black market from time to time, and even collected some Foundation Establishment Dan materials.”
“Now they are not even moved by the ‘Mystic Immortal Vine’, so it seems that the base in their hands is quite thick.”
Daoist Red Moon’s face also changed slightly, this was the fat sheep that the three of them had picked.
Now that the fat sheep wasn’t coming, then they weren’t working for nothing.
Paper Kite Fairy’s brows furrowed, and after a moment, she said again, “It’s fine, if they still don’t want to come after ten days, then we’ll find another way.”
A few days later.
Su Yu’s cave.
Su Yu received a guest that he had invited not long ago, the Heavenly Market Hall Cultivation Whispering Taoist, after coming to the Great Moon Black Market for so many years, Su Yu knew that the role of the Heavenly Market Hall in the Great Moon Black Market was probably that of an intelligence broker.
They could be said to have spared no effort in order to gather intelligence.
Likewise, dealing with such people did not require beating around the bush.
Su Yu said, “Dao brother, I would like to know the purpose of the Hundred Treasure Mountain Paper Kite Fairy inviting us into the Great Moon Ridge.”
Daoist Cultivating Words smiled at his words and said, “I knew that you were asking about this – five hundred lower grade spirit stones.”
Su Yu took it out without hesitation.
Daoist Cultivating Words took the spirit stones and said, “You are an alchemist, you have collected a lot of pill materials during this period of time, and you have also collected a few Foundation Establishment Pill materials, although it is not much, it is enough to make the group of hungry wolves in the black market set their sights on it.”
“Especially since fellow Daoist is only at the Foundation Establishment Realm – oh, congratulations on breaking through to the second level of the Foundation Establishment Realm.”
“However, the second level of Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation is still nothing in the Great Moon Black Market.”
“That group of guys for a thousand lower grade spirit stones, they all dared to besiege the merchant caravan of a major power.”
“It’s also thanks to the fact that you, Taoist Friend, are in your cave retreat all year round, otherwise, hehe.”
“There’s a reason why the Great Moon Black Market is called a black market and not a workshop market.”
“So, Fellow Daoist pay attention to yourself.”
“These five hundred lower grade spirit stones are still worth spending.”
Shortly after, Daoist Cultivation Whisperer left.
He hadn’t said a word about the Paper Kite Fairy’s purpose, but had actually said everything.
Su Yu’s gaze sank as he looked at the back of Daoist Cultivation Whisperer’s departure, he was still pondering over the information he had just said, but a thought suddenly popped into his mind, “After he gave himself this information, will he turn around and go to the Hundred Treasure Mountain to sell his knowledge of this matter once more?”
Thinking about the integrity of an intelligence broker, Su Yu cursed in his heart, he was 100% sure that right now, Daoist Cultivation Whisperer was already on top of Hundred Treasure Mountain.
At the same time, he felt that this Great Moon Black Market was really ‘unorganized’, he had explicitly only collected some materials for his own alchemy for so many years, and a few materials for the Foundation Establishment Dan that he had his eye on.
This could all be targeted?
Then if others knew that he had also spent more than 20,000 lower grade spirit stones to collect materials in terms of puppet beasts.
Wouldn’t it be that this cave house of his would have been trampled by that group of people a long time ago?
“The second rank upper grade mountain protection formation has to be arranged earlier.” Su Yu’s gaze stared.
As for that Paper Kite Fairy from the Hundred Treasure Mountain next to him-
Su Yu’s eyes turned cold.
He wasn’t afraid that the group from Baibao Mountain really had something in mind for him, the Dao Body Puppet had already returned from the Eight Demon Ridge Workshop, and he had quite a lot of means in his hands, and there were even five second-order middle-grade harnessed beasts in his cave.
Even if a strong person at the peak of the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm wanted to lay hands on the cave, he would not be afraid.
Su Yu didn’t know what the situation was like at Hundred Treasure Mountain.
However, after knowing that he might be targeted by quite a few people, Su Yu hurriedly urged Yu Ke’er, Yu Qianqing, Su Rui’an and the others not to leave the cave while he himself closed his mind once again to completely finish the second rank middle grade puppet beast, ‘Twin-winged Thunder Snake’.
Two months later.
In the secret room.
Su Yu held his breath and concentrated, a top grade talisman pen in his hand condensed all of his mana and spiritual qi in the jade table on the second rank middle quality fine talisman paper a little bit of carving until more than two hours later, accompanied by a burst of heaven and earth spiritual qi vibration surging into the talisman on the table.
This one fine second-order mid-grade Dragon Slaying Talisman was successfully drawn.
Feeling the overpowering aura on this fine quality Dragon Slaying Talisman, Su Yu was excited in his heart, “Good stuff ah.”
“When used well, it might even be able to directly chop down the sixth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm.”
“Again.”
Su Yu sat on his knees and meditated to recover his own mana and mind, after a day his state returned to its peak, he once again attempted to draw the Fine Dragon Beheading Talisman.
Half a month passed in a row.
Su Yu had spent fifteen Fine Quality Materials and once again obtained three Fine Quality Dragon Beheading Talismans.
Afterwards, Su Yu’s mind looked towards his Qiankun bag, which contained some of the family money he had accumulated over the past few years.
There were more than one hundred and sixty Second Order Lower Grade talismans and sixty-seven Second Order Middle Grade talismans, including six ordinary Dragon Slaying Talismans and four Fine Quality Dragon Slaying Talismans.
Three Second Order Lower Grade Puppets, not Dragon Crocodile Puppet Beasts, but other types.
One second-order medium-grade puppet, the ‘Twin-winged Thunder Snake’.
“There is still one fine quality and one ordinary quality of Foundation Building Dan.” Su Yu whispered, he had left three Foundation Establishment Pills for the clan during the previous time, he kept three in his own hand for backup and used one on Yu Qianqing.
In these few years, Su Rui’an’s cultivation had broken through to the seventh level of the Qi Refining Realm, and his alchemist had also reached the first rank upper level.
When Su Rui’an reached the ninth level of the Qi Refining Realm, then he could also give him a fine quality Foundation Establishment Dan.
In addition to that.
The Dao Body Puppet had earned more than seventy thousand lower grade spirit stones during its seven years in the Eight Demon Ridge. Counting the 30,000 or so 40,000 lower grade spirit stones in Su Yu’s hand before, there was still about 10,000 left to spend now.
He still had a full eighty thousand lower grade spirit stones in his hand!
Su Yu touched his head and pondered, “If I let the JieDan Realm know, will they tear me apart tonight?”
