Immortal Taoist Lord: My Cultivation Have No Limits

Chapter 577: Harvest_2 180
 

“Uh.” Zhang Mengyao was momentarily stunned, unable to find her words, her mind sluggish.

Hadn’t they come into these ruins to seek fortuitous encounters?

What could be hidden here?

Su Yu and the others sat on the ground, not overly fixated on why Su Yu hadn’t gone out to search for opportunities, but instead built such a cave dwelling underground.

They were discussing the Spiritual Body Daozi that had appeared in the Immortal Palace this time.

Luo Qianyu contemplated and said, “His power is a bit strange. Why do I feel like he seems to have already touched the threshold of the Nascent Soul Realm?”

Taoist Qingquan deeply agreed and nodded, saying, “That does indeed seem like the power of a True Monarch of Nascent Soul, plus the power of their Immortal Array from the Immortal Palace, all converged onto him. That’s why they were able to stand against so many prodigies all at once!”

Taoist Shuhai had a hint of apprehension in his eyes as he whispered, “What do you think, how strong is his Dao foundation at the Core Formation stage?”

At his words, both Luo Qianyu and Taoist Qingquan fell silent. They couldn’t answer clearly because they had never seen it, nor had they reached that level.

Zhang Mengdie and Zhang Mengyao, the two sisters with the lowest cultivation, naturally had no say in the matter.

Su Yu paused for a moment then said, “I once read in an ancient book in the Heavenly Scroll Pavilion that when a Core Formation cultivator refines their Dao foundation to the point of seven-turn Golden Core and above, there will be a transformation.”

“They will be able to control the power of Dao—similar to the Dao domain of a True Monarch in the Nascent Soul Realm.”

“However, a Core Formation cultivator is ultimately not a True Monarch of Nascent Soul, so this power is a bit weaker than the real True Monarch of Nascent Soul.”

“Seven-turn Golden Core!”

Once these words were spoken, the expressions of Luo Qianyu, Taoist Qingquan, Taoist Shuhai, Zhang Mengdie, and Zhang Mengyao all changed, their faces filled with shock and astonishment as they looked at Su Yu in disbelief.

A long time passed.

Only then did Taoist Shuhai take a deep breath and exclaimed in amazement, “No wonder, no wonder that Daozi from the Immortal Palace, with only the cultivation of the fifth layer of Core Formation, has such terrifying strength.”

“A seven-turn Golden Core, that’s indeed a monster!”

Luo Qianyu, Taoist Qingquan, and the two Zhang sisters all nodded in agreement, indeed, he was a monster.

Su Yu: “…”

Also, is he really a monster? He felt that he was pretty normal.

After a moment of discussion.

Taoist Shuhai asked again, “Do you think he will settle down a bit after this?”

Luo Qianyu contemplated for a moment and said, “Probably not, as you said, since he has chosen the path of a combat cultivator, this ruins exploration is a great opportunity for him.”

“Having so many prodigies of the same realm to sharpen oneself against, after the ruins close and reopen, there won’t be such a good training opportunity again.”

Taoist Qingquan furrowed his brows slightly and asked, “Should we go out and look for opportunities then?”

Instead of answering, both Luo Qianyu and Taoist Shuhai turned to look at Su Yu, as if only he was capable of making the decision.

Su Yu really wanted to say that he was only a small cultivator of the fourth layer of Core Formation—

But after thinking about it, he swallowed his words back, figuring there was no point in bluffing his own people.

“That Daozi is not something to worry about.”

“What I’m worried about is, would the old man behind him from the Immortal Palace jump out?”

Su Yu pondered, somewhat apprehensive.

Of course.

He was only slightly apprehensive.

If things really got to a desperate point, he would take Luo Qianyu and the others and escape from this relic using the Virtual Heaven Escape Skill.

Without a deliberate spatial seal, it wouldn’t be difficult for him to leave.

The group stayed in the cave dwelling for several days. The wind was calm in the secret relic of this cave sky for the time being. That Daozi of the Immortal Palace disappeared, probably off to heal his injuries.

Meanwhile, the other talents from different forces within the ruins began to gather in groups of tens of people.

The news of Luo Qianyu and Taoist Qingquan jointly repelling the Daozi from the Immortal Palace spread among these talents, causing quite a stir.

Those prodigies who had seen the beauty of the two were unwittingly seeing them as celestial maidens, their hearts fluttering.

And the fact that Luo Qianyu and Taoist Qingquan took the Zhang sisters with them had been seen by many people, so the identity of Luo Qianyu and Taoist Qingquan as talents of the Celestial Court was not hard to guess.

After spending three days in the cave without being disturbed by the elder from the Wànxīāngōng, Su Yu decided to come out again with Luo Qianyu and the others.

They gathered together, beginning their exploration for the opportunities in this ancient ruin.

With Su Yu’s guidance, their search for spiritual medicine and spirit plants and other prospects was much smoother than expected.

Almost every few days, they would find one or two grade-four spiritual medicines.

After half a month.

Su Yu once again heard news of the Daoist from Wànxīāngōng. Using his Golden Cicada Magic Eye Technique, he saw the Daoist continuing to lead his followers in challenging other forces’ geniuses.

Luckily, these geniuses had already teamed up, some even gathering in groups of hundreds.

Even when the Daoist from Wànxīāngōng came to provoke, the losses incurred in the ensuing battle were not significant; injuries were sustained, but the casualties were minimal.

Su Yu was too lazy to meddle with the Daoist’s troubles with other powers, and instead continued to unearth spiritual medicine in the ruins with Luo Qianyu and the others, yielding fruitful results.

Time flew, and a year had passed in the blink of an eye.

The ancient ruins were once again opened.

The geniuses of other powers were mentally exhausted from dealing with Gu Shaokun, the Daoist from Wànxīāngōng. Despite participating in one magic battle after another, they hardly had the energy or interest to explore the ancient ruins. However, they still managed to gain insight from their battles with the Daoist and his followers, making their journey worthwhile.

When the ancient ruins re-opened, the geniuses swiftly took to the skies and left the ruins.

Su Yu, Luo Qianyu, and a few others from Taoist Qingquan, were leaving along with the crowd.

However, just as they left the ruins, they saw the Daoist from Wànxīāngōng showing up to block their way.

Compared to a year ago, when they saw him again, Su Yu and the others could sense that the Daoist had matured and his aura had grown stronger, even reaching the six stage of Core Formation Realm!

It was obvious.

The experiences and battles he’d gone through in the past year had brought him a lot of benefits.

Su Yu, Luo Qianyu, and Taoist Qingquan wrinkled their brows when they saw him blocking their way, “Friend, what’s the meaning of this?” they asked.

Gu Shaokun had a handsome and charming face, which had become steadier after a year of experience. His sharp edges had been slightly concealed, not as arrogant and domineering as before.

After looking briefly at Luo Qianyu and Taoist Qingquan, Gu Shaokun said, “A year ago, weren’t it for the spell talisman, both of you would not have been able to get the upper hand.”

“However, that’s in the past.”

“You are from the Earthly Immortal Mansion, right?”

“I’ll remember. In a few years, I will visit Earthly Immortal Mansion. By then, you can still activate the same spell talisman.”

“Hopefully, you can defeat me once again.”

Saying so, Gu Shaokun waved his hand and threw two ancient jade boxes towards Luo Qianyu and Taoist Qingquan.

Then, he turned around without looking back and left.

“In ten years, I will visit Earthly Immortal Mansion. Hopefully, I can see you alive by then.”

Luo Qianyu and Taoist Qingquan took the jade boxes with knitted brows, thinking, What does this mean?

Watching the Daoist leave, Su Yu was rather relieved and interested in the jade boxes. He suggested, “Why don’t we open them and see what’s inside?”

Luo Qianyu tossed her jade box to him, saying indifferently, “You can check it out.”

Shrugging his shoulders, Su Yu opened the jade box. The strong scent of the spiritual medicine filled the air.

Inside the box was a fist-sized fruit that looked like a piece of white jade.

Seeing this fruit, Su Yu’s face hardened as he exclaimed in surprise, “This is one of the core materials for the Nascent Soul Pill, the fourth-stage spirit fruit, the White-faced Communicative Fruit!”

There were four core constituents for concocting the Nascent Soul Pill. Apart from the core Nascent Soul Fruit, this White-faced Communicative Fruit was one of the three other core ingredients.

The Daoist from Wànxīāngōng had casually tossed out such a core ingredient?

Luo Qianyu, Taoist Qingquan, and Taoist Shuhai, all were shocked and puzzled at this site.

What was that Daoist from Wànxīāngōng trying to do?

Was he crazy?

Or did he have any ulterior motives?

Taoist Qingquan handed his jade box to Su Yu, saying, “Why not check this one too, brother, and see what’s inside?”
