After a short silence, Niu Baidao said, "He might really have an Invincible ruin..."
"Don't even think about it." Zhu Tiandao said, "It's merely an Invincible ruin. What's the big deal? It's not worth ruining our relationship with Su Yu. Firstly, you might not be able to becan Invincible even with the ruin. Don't forget that more than 36 experts have entered the Invincible ruins back then.
"Secondly, Su Yu himself might be more valuable than the entire ruin. The inheritance of the ruin might already be in his head. Having him around is the sas having the successor of an Invincible's legacy. And that's basically the sas having the ruin for ourselves. That kid is very good at holding a grudge. Don't bother trying to take his ruin. Since he's here, he won't be able to leave so easily.
"The kid is getting popular nowadays. He has also offended a lot of people. If he leaves in the future, he will be pursued by countless enemies and forced to return. He will cto learn just how nice Great Ming is. He won't be able to escape us."
Niu Baidao laughed in amusement, but he said nothing.
"Prefect, I have a question. Just what is Xia Longwu planning?"
"What do you mean?"
"Why is he dragging his advancement by a few years?"
Zhu Tiandao stared at Niu Baidao for a long while before asking, "You noticed as well?"
"What a stupid question." Niu Baidao said, "I know Xia Longwu quite well. Logically, he should have entered the Allheaven Battlefield to affirm his dao after killing those divine intruders. But instead, he entered a fake seclusion. Just what is he doing?""He's waiting for the right time." Zhu Tiandao indifferently said, "If I'm right, he's waiting for someone. Maybe he's waiting for Xia Xiao'er. Or maybe he's waiting for Wan Tiansheng. It could even be Liu Wenyan and the others. I'm only sure that he's waiting for someone."
Niu Baidao asked in astonishment, "Can those people even step into that realm?"
With Xia Longwu serving as the live target, those people would be able to safely complete their advancement, provided they had the talent for it. Xia Longwu was prepared to play this role, sacrificing himself so that others could safely break through.
"I don't know."
Zhu Tiandao was speaking the truth. With an uncertain tone, he said, "I don't know who he's waiting for, but he's definitely aiming to create an opportunity for someone else to break through safely."
"Sigh."
Niu Baidao sighed regretfully. Chaotic times were upon them. Whatever. Forget it.
At the stime.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtInside the research center.
Su Yu was busy extracting blood essence from the two corpses he had received. Both were early-stage Cloudbreach corpses. Even after death, they were still emitting heavy pressure.
Su Yu was certain that these early-stage Cloudbreaches were definitely no weaker than Zhou Pingsheng. Truly worthy of being members of the two strongest races of the Allheaven Battlefield.
Yes. The two strongest races. The divines and devils were the collective terms for these incredibly powerful races. And standing at the very top were the first divine and original devil races.
Su Yu had first heard of the first divine race from Bai Feng. That was an extremely powerful race. And the racial ability of this race was the Divine Transformation.
Someone with 144 opened acupoints would be able to utilize the prowess of 152 acupoints with this racial ability. And this was an ability they were born with. No cultivation was required. The eight additional acupoints were basically the eight Source Opening acupoints.
Su Yu had never seen a martial technique with 152 acupoints before.
Even something as powerful as the Sky Sundering Saber could only utilize 144 acupoints at maximum. One ought to remember that the Sky Sundering Saber was both a cultivation method and a martial technique.
This was a race whose blood essence Su Yu had been dying to get. And finally, his wish was fulfilled. He carefully extracted the blood essence from the corpse, afraid that he would ruin the process through a careless mistake.
The moment the drop of blood essence took form, it erupted with a divine pressure, making it hard for Su Yu to even breathe. This was only a Cloudbreach, yet a drop of blood essence was capable of unleashing such pressure. Su Yu was both surprised and excited.
Sure enough, the Allheaven Battlefield was a lot more interesting than the Human Realm. It was also a lot more exciting.
This Cloudbreach gave Su Yu the impression that he was facing the likes of Wu Qi and Xia Yuwen. One ought to know that this dead divine was probably a regular member of his race instead of a super genius.
Then again, the first divine race was basically filled with geniuses, unlike the human race where individual talent might vary greatly. The divines and devils were smaller in number, but each of them was incredibly talented.
Meanwhile, the human race was akin to bugs, capable of breeding at an incredible speed. A drop of golden blood essence landed in Su Yu's palm. He was overjoyed.
He had seen divine and devil blood essence before. Back when he was scamming others with Zheng Yunhui, that fellow had been incredibly careful with the drops of blood essence he had taken out. Zheng Yunhui's blood essence was at the Cloudbreach Realm as well, but the pressure they emanated was definitely not as heavy as the drop in his palm.
He even had an impression that the blood essence was roaring at him. A scene appeared in his mind. That was the scene of a divine expert roaring on the battlefield as he faced the soldiers of Great Qin with unbridled arrogance.
Just how high of a price had Great Qin paid to kill this person? They were probably forced to limit the strength of the people they sent to fight this divine. Otherwise, the first divine race would also retaliate by sending stronger experts to deal with them. That would eventually escalate into a major battle.
Thus, the person sent to kill this divine was probably a Cloudbreach as well. Perhaps that human Cloudbreach might even be of a lower cultivation level. Great Qin's military was truly impressive.
"This is too powerful...damn it! I might not be able to withstand it!"
Su Yu had consumed Cloudbreach blood essence before as well, but only the blood essence of regular races. Meanwhile, this was the blood essence of a first divine. He might end up bursting apart if he tried consuming it.
"There is no rush. I'll extract more blood essence. If I have to, I can simply wait and try forging my body first."
He stopped that line of thought and started focusing on extracting more blood essence. One drop, two drops, three drops…
At the tenth drop, the pressure the corpse was emanating started weakening. The stronger someone was, the more blood essence one could provide.
Generally, a Great Strength or Infinite Strength cultivator could provide ten drops of blood essence. Those at the Skysoar and Cloudbreach Realm could provide more, but Su Yu could sense that this was the limit for this corpse. If he extracted more, this corpse would be ruined. He couldn't have that happen since he still wanted to study the corpse.
After all, a first divine corpse was very rare. He believed that not even Great Xia had something like this in their storage.
Wen Zhong, who was keeping watch beside him, smiled and said, "Your blood extraction ability is quite decent. Are you using a special character?"
"Yeah. A blood character. It's near the third tier, but I have been suppressing it as I won't be able to control it as well if I allow it to break through."
"..."
Wen Zhong said nothing. Inwardly, he was cursing. Third-tier character! He was glad Jin Sheng and the others weren't here. If they were here, they might die from sheer anger. Those geezers had been stuck at their current cultivation levels for so many years because they hadn't been able to push their characters into the third tier.
"When are you going to advance your willpower cultivation into the Skysoar Realm?"
Wen Zhong was curious. This kid had formed ten characters yet he was still suppressing his breakthrough.
"There's no rush. I still need to open sapertures."
While putting the extracted blood essence away, he started working on the devil corpse as well. The first divine and original devil races greatly resembled the human race in terms of appearance. But at the stime, they were so good-looking that it was unnatural.
Each member of the original devil race had a red flsymbol on their forehead. Upon noticing that, Su Yu's eyes flickered.
Forehead.
That position was also connected to the central line, right?
But that was also a sensitive position. He wouldn't dare to experiment on it himself. Blasting his forehead apart was not the sas blasting his backside apart. That could really kill him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWith the new discovery, Su Yu hurriedly stripped the divine corpse. He noted that the clothes of the divine were actually a set of cultural weapons. These clothes were worth a lot, but Su Yu tossed them aside nonchalantly as money was not something he lacked currently.
After studying the divine corpse, he found that the first divine race bore a greater resemblance to the human race compared to the original devil. After all, the flsymbol was a very conspicuous symbol of the original devil race. After turning the divine corpse around, Su Yu's eyes flickered as he noticed something.
The spine!
He reached out and inspected the spine with his hands. With his brow raised, he said, "This spine is comprised of at least 40 bones. Is this the greatest difference between the first divine race and the human race?"
"Yes." Wen Zhong nodded, "The spine is also a source of power. The more bones you have there, and the more concentrated they are, the more explosive the strength you can muster. Having the spine of a dragon. That is one of the natural advantages the first divine race is born with."
Su Yu said, "Is it possible that the two remaining acupoints are located on the spine and the forehead?"
Wen Zhong, "It's hard to say, and those two positions are hard to test. Destroying your spine is the sas crippling yourself. Destroying your forehead is the sas killing yourself. This is going to be a test built upon numerous lives."
There was no need for that. Su Yu had a better alternative. He could constheir blood essence and tried activating these two acupoints temporarily. Perhaps he would really be able to locate the final acupoints this time.
Su Yu continued working on the devil corpse in silence.
These corpses probably belonged to warriors. Their physical bodies were very tough. As for what he could unlock through the blood essence of their cultural researchers, he was unsure. He would only know after killing-cough-gathering more divine and devil corpses.
After a while, two bottles were arranged before Su Yu. One of them contained the first divine blood essence while the other contained the original devil blood essence. He had obtained ten drops from each of the corpses. Each drop was emanating a powerful pressure. He could seemingly hear the blood essence roaring at him, telling him that the divine and devil had died with indignance.
While Su Yu was focused on the blood essence, Wen Zhong was studying the two corpses. He said, "Both were killed by the sperson. Impressive. The killer is probably a third or fourth-stage Cloudbreach. This person is as talented as Great Xia's Huang Teng. He's a spear expert and a warrior. He had finished off both of them with one final spear strike. Could it be Qin Fang?"
"Qin Fang?" Su Yu asked curiously, "Who's Qin Fang?"
"Qin Zhen's grandson. He is known as the number one warrior of Great Qin. That's not because he's an Invincible. Instead, it refers to his strength among those in the scultivation level. He is similar in strength to Huang Teng, but the two have never fought. A lot of people are waiting for them to fight at least once.
"Great Qin and Great Xia are founded by the strongest and second strongest warriors. For warriors, Great Qin King and Great Xia King are the equivalent of Great Zhou King and Great Ming King of the Knowledge Seeking Realm. Back then, Xia Longwu and Qin Zhen were constantly compared against each other. And now, they're both on the verge of advancement. Now, people are comparing Huang Teng and Qin Fang. Both of them are the most outstanding youth of their respective prefectures."
Huang Teng and Qin Fang. Su Yu made sure to note those two names down.
His teacher was once beaten up by Huang Teng. To be precise, his teacher had been beaten up by Huang Teng multiple times. Bai Feng had never been able to forget that. If possible, perhaps Su Yu could return Huang Teng the favor on his teacher's behalf.
He exhaled deeply, picked up the two bottles, and stood up. "Senior Brother, I'm going to start studying my newly obtained blood essence. I'll see you later."
Wen Zhong nodded without asking too much.
He assumed that Su Yu was going to produce snew ability blood essence. This was the specialty of Su Yu's lineage. Thus, it was understandable that Su Yu would keep it a secret. In any case, Su Yu wasn't even the creator of the ability blood essence production method. He would first need the permission of the multiple character faction before teaching it to anyone.
