Chapter 500: A Small Goal, the Name of Su Yu!

Behind Azure Dragon Peak, around the cave residence.

Unparalleled silence.

They looked at Gu Yan, lying on the ground with an extremely feeble breath, and then glanced at the tightly shut door of the cave residence.

Someone, with apprehension, said.

"This Su Yu... his combat power is somewhat terrifying!"

"Indeed, Gu Yan, who at 100,000 li managed to reverse‑strike the 210,000‑li Great Dao, even though there is Great‑Dao‑level suppression, is still a bit too god‑defying."

The crowd was moved one after another.

It should be noted that the strength of the 210,000‑li Great Dao, even among inner‑gate disciples, is already at the upper‑lower tier.

And Su Yu, having entered only for a day, already reached such terrifying heights.

It truly made them feel a bit apprehensive.

Moreover, given Su Yu's status, those who had looked down on him suddenly changed their attitude toward him.

Indeed, the power Su Yu displayed this time was excessively terrifying.

Perhaps, for some masters who have surpassed the 300,000‑li Great Dao, this is nothing.

But Su Yu has only been here for less than a day.

Before that, Su Yu was merely a fifth‑layer Heavenly Realm weakling.

And now, he can actually defeat a 210,000‑li Great Dao strongman.

Such terrifying combat power....

Makes many people filled with apprehension toward Su Yu.

Yang Ming cast a deep glance at Su Yu's cave residence, his mouth lifting with a faint smile.

"Perhaps... it can truly help the Hall Master!"

He shook his head, and his figure vanished inside the cave residence.

At this moment, inside Su Yu's cave residence.

The cave residence is simple; there is nothing else, just a spacious bed and some basic washing implements.

In fact, at Su Yu's current realm, his body no longer generates impurities, so these items are optional.

Su Yu waved his hand, sweeping the entire cave residence.

Then, sitting cross‑legged on the bed, he began to reflect on today's events.

"Now that I've joined the Azure Dragon Hall, although I must ascend to the Law Realm to learn the way back to the Ten Thousand Tribes Continent, here... it isn't very difficult."

Advancing to the Law Realm is indeed hard, but for Su Yu, as long as resources are sufficient.

It's not a particularly arduous matter.

As for resources, for the Azure Dragon Hall, as long as your talent is terrifying enough and your contribution sufficient.

Even resources that can elevate you to the Venerable Realm are available.

Yet among the four great domains, with so many celestial prodigies, those in the Venerable Realm number only four openly.

Thus, reaching the Venerable Realm is exceedingly difficult.

"Although joining the Azure Dragon Hall was the teacher's arrangement, Senior Sister still has some of her own scheming."

"The main point is the candidate's status..."

Su Yu squinted, and a brainstorming session instantly began.

"The candidate's status is merely a title; as long as Senior Sister remains unfallen, the candidate is just a candidate. Why does Senior Sister want me to obtain the candidate's status?"

Su Yu furrowed his brows; this was the most puzzling matter to him.

"Could it be that someone inside the Azure Dragon Hall wishes to overthrow Senior Sister? Yet she is in the Venerable Realm; how could such a being be toppled?"

Su Yu murmured, his mind recalling today's events.

"Fine, never mind. Since Senior Sister let me take the candidate's status, I'll just take it."

Su Yu gave a faint smile; after all, his Senior Sister stands behind him, and she could not possibly harm him.

If she were to harm him, the teacher would not have agreed.

That is indisputable.

"According to Yang Ming, the candidate's ceremony is a year away, and to become a candidate one must at least reach the strength of a True Disciple!"

"Core Disciples already possess the 700,000‑li level, so True Disciples..."

"They can't all be at the 900,000‑li level, can they?"

Su Yu rubbed his chin; currently his Ten Thousand Dao Unity is only at the 100,000‑li level.

He is still far from the 700,000‑li mark.

"If I can rise to 700,000 li and raise the Ten Thousand Dao Unity to the ninth grade, perhaps I could even battle a 900,000‑li demon."

Su Yu does not underestimate the demons of the Azure Dragon Hall; after all, those who become True Disciples there are not trivial.

It won't be that simple.

At minimum, they have comprehended Great Dao above sixth grade.

Moreover, some have even grasped the Supreme Great Dao.

Su Yu naturally would not forget this.

"Now, whether it's to return to the Ten Thousand Tribes Continent or to aid Senior Sister, the primary task remains to strengthen myself!"

"Only by raising my own strength can I accomplish what I wish to do."

"Then, set a small goal: break the 900,000‑li barrier within a year!"

A beam of light burst from Su Yu's eyes.

If this small goal of Su Yu were known to others, it would surely provoke uproarious laughter.

After all, among existences who could cultivate the Grand Dao to nine hundred thousand li, which one was not a heaven-chosen prodigy?

Even a nine-hundred-thousand-li powerhouse, placed in certain regions, could suppress a domain of heaven and earth.

Those were the strongest batch of people beneath the Law Realm.

But for Su Yu, it was not particularly difficult either.

The existence of the Synthesis Slot allowed Su Yu to exchange the least resources for the greatest resources, thereby improving himself.

Su Yu took out the Space Ring of an inner sect disciple of Azure Dragon Hall, and also the ring that the Hall Master of Azure Dragon Hall had given him.

Inner sect disciples could receive ten low grade Grand Dao Stones every month.

And inside the Space Ring that the Hall Master of Azure Dragon Hall had given him, there were a full one hundred low grade Grand Dao Stones.

Equivalent to ten months of Su Yu's stipend.

Su Yu's brow lifted slightly.

"Perhaps... I can start exploiting bugs!"

The corners of Su Yu's mouth curved upward slightly.

He took out the Synthesis Slot and began synthesizing.

In the end, he successfully synthesized one hundred and ten low grade Grand Dao Stones into twenty-seven Upper Grade Grand Dao Stones and one mid grade Grand Dao Stone.

"Tomorrow I'll go exchange some Upper Grade Grand Dao Stones for some low grade Grand Dao Stones, then collect this month's cultivation technique and raise the Great Desolation Heaven-Devouring Art's level."

Su Yu murmured, already having a plan for what came next.

One should know that the exchange rate between Grand Dao Stones was one to one hundred.

He only needed two to synthesize one of higher quality.

Equivalent to directly making a net profit of fifty stones!

Bah, damn middlemen!

Taking a deep breath, Su Yu calmed his mind, circulating the Great Desolation Heaven-Devouring Art to its extreme. An extreme suction force erupted from Su Yu's dantian.

He began devouring the energy within the Grand Dao Stones.

Inside Azure Dragon Hall.

Elder Xu stood respectfully in the great hall, and above Elder Xu, looming in the darkness, was none other than the Hall Master of Azure Dragon Hall.

"Hall Master, that junior brother of yours is quite remarkable. Though only a sixth grade Grand Dao, he advanced to a hundred thousand li Grand Dao within a single day, and even persisted for six shichen. This talent is perhaps not much inferior to yours back then."

Elder Xu said to the Hall Master of Azure Dragon Hall with a smile.

A trace of a smile could not help but appear on the Hall Master of Azure Dragon Hall's face.

"He is my little junior brother after all, how could he be that useless?"

"Six shichen, entering the Dao through both body and cultivation, and surging a hundred thousand li in Grand Dao cultivation. This talent... tsk tsk tsk, our master's eye remains as sharp as ever!"

The Hall Master of Azure Dragon Hall could not help but sigh with faint emotion.

Elder Xu also noticed the Hall Master of Azure Dragon Hall's delight, coughed, and said.

"Hall Master, although this kid's talent is quite decent, compared to the several prodigies of the other peaks, he still falls a bit short."

"The Candidate Grand Tournament is in one year. If within a year Su Yu cannot advance to the level of a true transmission disciple, I'm afraid it will give people grounds to talk!"

"Those old fogeys have been eyeing the candidate position covetously. Hall Master, you must not let your guard down!"

The Hall Master of Azure Dragon Hall lay lazily on the throne, her eyelids twitching slightly, and spoke indifferently.

"Just a bunch of clowns. Their strength is insufficient, so they try to find loopholes in the rules our master left behind."

"As long as I am here, they will never be able to make any waves."

"As for Su Yu's side... just keep an eye on things. I trust our teacher's judgment. My little junior brother will not disappoint me."

Elder Xu smiled bitterly, somewhat helpless toward his carefree Hall Master.

He could only shake his head and take his leave.

Once Elder Xu had left, the Hall Master of Azure Dragon Hall's languid demeanor instantly vanished.

What replaced it was an aura of absolute dominance.

Like a queen.

"Heavenly Thunder Peak.... Heavenly Sword Peak.... Jade Purity Peak...."

The Hall Master of Azure Dragon Hall parted her red lips slightly, and the names of the peaks spilled from her mouth one by one.

"You old fogeys, do you really think that just because our teacher left Azure Dragon Hall, you can turn things around?"

"As long as I am here, you will never be able to turn things around!"

A glint of sharp light shot forth from the Hall Master of Azure Dragon Hall's eyes.

Blood Prison Peak!

Blood Prison Peak could be considered a relatively famous mountain among the nine peaks of Azure Dragon Hall.

Within this peak, disciples were few, because all the disciples of Blood Prison Peak were powerhouses of the Body Dao!

And the Peak Master of Blood Prison Peak was even more a terrifying existence who had cultivated to the Law Realm through the power of the physical body.

His battle prowess was second only to the Hall Master of Azure Dragon Hall's, and he was even hailed as the foremost person beneath the Venerable of the Eastern Domain.

At this moment, atop the summit of Blood Prison Peak, inside a blood-red great hall.

A figure stood quietly in the great hall, looking at the middle-aged man seated above, his eyes filled with fervent intensity.

"Peak Master, the Hall Master's junior brother is also a prodigy of the Body Dao. Should we say a word to the Hall Master and bring Su Yu to our Blood Prison Peak?"

"Furthermore, I noticed that Su Yu's body cultivation method seems somewhat special. Body Dao disciples of the same realm do not seem as powerful as Su Yu."

The figure below said respectfully.

The Peak Master of Blood Prison Peak lifted his brow slightly, glanced at the other party, and a voice like a great bell rang out.

"He has only just entered the Body Dao. Whether he can go further on the Body Dao is still an open question. Let's watch for now."

"If one could cultivate the fleshly Dao to the extent of three hundred thousand li, perhaps it could catch my eye; as for the fleshly cultivation method you mentioned..."gòйЪ. ōΓg

"That thing is not something we can covet."

"The shadow below trembled slightly, then bowed respectfully again to the Blood Prison Peak Master, and afterwards disappeared into the main hall."

"After the middle-aged person left, the Blood Prison Peak Master slowly turned his gaze toward the direction of Azure Dragon Peak."

"The Chaos Body-Tempering Technique... the master's martial art has reappeared in the world!"

"Those old fogeys... are going to be unlucky!"

"Thunder Peak."

"One of the nine peaks of the Azure Dragon Hall."

"Thunder Peak is constantly bathed in lightning, hence its name."

"On the summit of Thunder Peak, endless lightning incessantly strikes the peak, creating a feeling of oppression."

"And at the very top of that peak, an old man sits cross-legged in the void."

"Countless lightning bolts fall from the firmament above, yet they directly avoid the old man's figure."

"As if they dare not land on the old man's body."

"Suddenly, the old man opened his eyes, within which terrifying lightning power leapt about."

"A terrifying aura emanated from the old man's body."

"Su Yu?"

"The old man murmured, a gleam flashing in his eyes."

"The sect master's junior brother... hum! Merely a hundred thousand li of the Great Dao, does the sect master really think he can turn the tables with this?"

"Soon, there's still one year left before the candidate ceremony begins..."

"The old man murmured, softly speaking into a point in the void."

"Disciple!"

"Only seen, in the depths of that void, there seemed to be a small world, filled with endless lightning."

"The next moment, from that small world, a burly young man slowly walked out, his upper body bare."

"Lightning patterns adorned his body."

"Moreover, a terrifying fluctuation emanated from the young man's body."

"The young man stepped out, bowed to the old man, and said."

"Master!"

"The old man looked at the young man without expression, and said lightly."

"A new disciple has come to Azure Dragon Peak, named Su Yu; let your subordinates go test him."

"The young man's brow twitched slightly, his face showing some displeasure: 'Master, it's just a newly initiated disciple; do I really need to come out of seclusion for this?'"

"The old man said lightly: 'This person is the sect master's junior brother; if you wish to obtain the status of candidate, you must fight him!'"

"Upon hearing this, the young man's body trembled slightly, and a ferocious color suddenly spread across his face."

"The sect master's junior brother... somewhat interesting, disciple understands."

"The young man smiled slightly and slowly retreated."

"The old man slowly gazed toward Azure Dragon Peak; his eyes, as if seeing through illusion, descended upon the back mountain of Azure Dragon Peak."

"Hope... this isn't a variable!"

"Not only Blood Prison Peak and Thunder Peak."

"Because of Su Yu's appearance, the other eight peaks of Azure Dragon Hall, the name Su Yu, spread far and wide."

"Not only because he is a disciple of the Azure Dragon Hall master, but also because Su Yu persisted for six hours in the River of the Great Dao."

"This time has already broken the record of the Azure Dragon Hall master."

"In a moment, the name Su Yu spread completely throughout the Azure Dragon Hall."

"The next day, Su Yu slowly woke from cultivation."

"After endless unconsciousness, Shi Yu suddenly jumped up from the bed. Please,"

"He took big gulps of fresh air, his chest trembling."

"Confused, incomprehension, various emotions surged in his heart."

"Where is this?"

"Afterward, Shi Yu subconsciously observed his surroundings, then became even more bewildered."

"A single-occupancy dormitory?"

"Even if he successfully got rescued, he should now be in a ward."

"And his own body... how could there be not a single injury?"

"Full of doubt, Shi Yu's gaze swept quickly across the room, finally landing on the mirror at the head of the bed."

"The mirror reflected his current appearance, about seventeen or eighteen years old, quite handsome."

"But the problem is, this isn't him!, read the latest chapter content free of ads"

"Before, himself was a handsome young man in his twenties with extraordinary bearing, having worked for a period of time."

"And now, this appearance looks like that of a high school student no matter how you look at it..."

"This change left Shi Yu dazed for a long time."

"Whatever you do, don't tell him the surgery was very successful..."

"His body and appearance have changed; this is fundamentally not a matter of whether or not there was surgery, but rather immortal arts."

"He actually completely turned into another person!"

"Could it be... that he has time-traveled?"

Besides the mirror placed at the head of the bed with obviously bad feng shui, Shi Yu also found three books beside it.

Shi Yu picked one up and looked at it; the title instantly made him fall silent.

"New Beast Keeper's Essential Beast-Raising Manual"

"Postnatal Care for Pets"

"Guide to Evaluating Beast-Eared Girls of Different Species"

Shi Yu:???

The titles of the first two books are still normal, but what's up with the last one?

"Cough."

Shi Yu's gaze turned serious, he reached out his hand, but soon his arm stiffened.

Just as he was about to open the third book to see what it was, his brain suddenly felt a sharp pain, and a flood of memories surged in like a tide.

I provide you with the high martial arts of the puppet that the god pulls strings; I have a synthesis slot.
