After getting started with the “Crocodile Demon 108 Physical Training Techniques”, Su Yu felt a qualitative transformation in his body. A surge of tremendous strength welled up from the depths of his body, causing drastic changes in his bones, flesh, and skin.
A layer of crimson patterns, akin to the scales of a crocodile demon, appeared on the surface of his skin the moment his blood flooded into these patterns.
Su Yu could feel an extremely rampant strength, as if he had transformed into a giant crocodile demon.
“This Body Refinement Realm is really not simple!”
“This is just the beginner level, and the transformation of physical power is much stronger than the mana at the first level of Qi Refinement!”
Su Yu couldn’t help but be amazed. He felt that if his mana were to confront his Body Refinement techniques, the power of Body Refinement might be able to violently shatter his original self with a single punch.
It’s the embodiment of brutality.
This glimpse revealed the whole picture; the godlike physical strength of the Ancient Era was absolutely not weak!
At least it’s not inferior to the way of the cultivators!
Entry-level training took ten days. Afterward, Su Yu, having undergone a physical metamorphosis, saw a significant increase in his food intake, and he even needed to have meat in every meal, preferably monster meat.
In contrast, the proficiency of the rapidly improving Body Refinement technique was several times faster than the slowly growing proficiency in the Wutong Qingmu Technique.
One day of full meals and Body Refinement training can at least increase proficiency by 1%.
A month flew by in a flash.
It was the day to receive the new monthly supply and the young cultivators of the Su Family held a trading meeting within the clan.
“Brother Yu, hurry up, the trading meeting is about to begin.” Su Qingyi shouted outside Su Yu’s courtyard.
The trading meeting was held in the backyard of the Su Family mansion, where a dozen or so stalls were set up.
Su Yu and Su Qingyi strolled and stopped their way through.
The items traded at these stalls were mostly common, and some stalls even had medicinal pills and herbs used by regular martial artists.
However, when passing by a stall, Su Yu took a liking to one item.
A drop of mid-stage first-class monster essence blood, priced at half a low-grade spirit stone.
After some thought, Su Yu decided to buy it.
Su Qingyi, standing beside him, looked puzzled: “What are you buying monster essence blood for? Apart from using it in alchemy and talisman crafting, you won’t need it.”
A half of a low-grade spirit stone, for the two of them who had just stepped into the path of a cultivator, was not to be wasted if possible.
Su Yu smiled and carefully stored the jade bottle containing the monster essence blood, saying: “I have a use for it.”
On hearing this, Su Qingyi’s eyes lit up, and he stopped trying to persuade him.
Useful?
Is he planning to learn alchemy or talisman crafting?
But even if he was to learn alchemy or talisman crafting, he should start from the beginning, searching for a master in the clan and becoming an apprentice to learn the craft, right?
At the last stall, Su Yu and Su Qingyi saw a row of ancient jade boxes.
This is a strange object in the cultivation world, passed down from the Ancient Era, known as the Forbidden Jade Box.
Most of them come from ancient ruins and secret realms. Because of the prohibitions placed on them, these ancient jade boxes that have endured countless years leave a special aura residue.
Once the prohibition is opened, the aura will dissipate.
Therefore, the Forbidden Jade Boxes produced from ancient secret realms can’t be faked.
The space inside the Forbidden Jade Box may be big or small, perhaps leaving remnants from the ancient times, or perhaps empty. 𝒻𝓻𝘦𝑒𝓌𝑒𝓫𝓷𝑜𝓋𝘦𝓵.𝓬𝘰𝓂
Some people have obtained astonishing inheritances from these ancient jade boxes.
But more people have wound up with a total loss due to these ancient jade boxes.
Wanting to acquire ancient opportunities from this thing has an even lesser chance than winning the lottery.
The person running the stall was none other than the Fifth Elder, Su Bin. Seeing Su Yu and Su Qingyi, Su Bin grinned, “Little Yu, Qingyi, do you want to get an ancient Jade Casket? Inside it, there might be an ancient opportunity hidden.”
“True Man Bai Yue of the Bai Yue Immortal City was once able to rise and establish the Bai Yue Immortal City because he had found an ancient opportunity from an ancient Jade Casket in his youth.”
“Opportunities are fleeting and don’t come twice, an ancient opportunity only costs one lower-grade Spirit Stone, it’s a great deal.”
Su Yu looked in silence at the stall keeper Fifth Elder, their monthly allowances were just one lower-grade Spirit Stone.
And now he was trying to sell them an ancient Jade Casket…
Shameless!
Originally, Su Qingyi was also reluctant, but after hearing the example of True Man Bai Yue, his eyes instantly became focused, staring intently at the ancient Jade Caskets on the stall.
The looks of these ancient Jade Caskets all differed, with ancient restrictions lingered upon them, they could not see any unobvious things inside, or even if there was anything inside.
Just as Su Yu tried to dissuade Su Qingyi, he had already taken out a lower-grade Spirit Stone, picked an ancient Jade Casket from the stall, and said, gritting his teeth, “I want this.”
“Hehe, Good, good, sold and not to be returned… Oops, I mean, the sale is agreed, returns are not allowed.”
Su Bin took that lower-grade Spirit Stone, his eyes smilingly fixed on Su Yu, which gave Su Yu goosebumps.
Su Yu immediately replied, “I just bought some stuff, I have no more Spirit Stone in hand.”
Hearing this, Su Bin immediately grimaced, “No more spirit stones? How could you youngsters have such thin wallets?”
“This cannot do, when the time comes you should ask the leader if there are any tasks suitable for you, to earn more spirit stones.”
“So that during the trading meet next month, you can have Spirit Stones to get the ancient opportunities.”
Get lost.
If there were real ancient opportunities, these wouldn’t fall onto them.
Su Yu didn’t even bother looking at these ancient Jade Caskets, he had seen similar things in the games he used to play, like those pay-to-win tactics, a gameplay only for the wealthy.
Even for those wealthy, it would be painful for them too, only one in tens of thousands could make a profit.
It’s okay if you have extra money to play around with.
But now, every bit of his cultivation resources was precious, he couldn’t afford to waste.
After leaving the trading meet, Su Qingyi sneaked back to his courtyard with the ancient Jade Casket. Su Yu shook his head as he watched Coscrode’s retreating figure before heading back to his own courtyard.
After cultivating diligently for a few days, Su Yu took out a drop of mid-tier, first-order beast spirit blood, equivalent to the cultivation stage of mid Qi Refinement.
He divided it into three parts and swallowed them in succession to cultivate the Body Refinement Technique.
Half a month passed in this manner.
Buzz!
That day, Su Yu’s qi surged wildly. The blood patterns on his skin once again emerged, transforming into a monstrous crocodile demon roaring in the sky.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
Changes occurred in Su Yu’s flesh, bones, and skin.
With the help of the drop of mid-tier, first-order beast spirit blood, his proficiency in practicing the Body Refinement Technique skyrocketed within a month, breaking through to the second layer.
[Cultivation Technique: Phoenix Tree Heart Sutra (First layer, 19.2%), Crocodile Demon 108 Physical Training Techniques (Second layer, 0.3%)].
Once the transformation ended, Su Yu studied the line of characters intently, deep in thought.
“The speed of advancement in the Phoenix Tree Heart Sutra is hampered by the Spiritual Root aptitude, the improvement of proficiency is rather slow, whereas Body Refinement Technique isn’t affected by the Spiritual Root aptitude, its proficiency improving at a rate that the Phoenix Tree Heart Sutra can’t match.”
Sensing the power of the Body Refinement Technique, Su Yu couldn’t help but sigh. He felt that even if he faced a cultivator at the third layer of Qi Refinement, he could still put up a fight.
Unfortunately, in his heart, Cultivation was the righteous path. The improvement of his Phoenix Tree Heart Sutra might be slow, but it was acceptable.
It wouldn’t be difficult to reach the second layer within a year.
He firmly believed that even if it took thousands or even tens of thousands of years of cultivation, he could still ascend to Immortality and become a supreme being.
