Chapter 249: Preparations

Void God Tower, ninety-eighth floor!

Inside the great hall!

After confirming Su Yu's persistence.

Gale Thunder and Garuda had nothing more to say.

With these two great Machine Emperors present.

Even if Su Yu encountered problems.

During the refining process.

They would be able to intervene in time.

And save Su Yu.

Furthermore.

Su Yu did not display any signs of being overly eager for quick success.

Instead, he decided to raise his strength to Demi-Saint first.

Before beginning the refining.

This caused the worry in Gale Thunder's heart to dissipate quite a bit.

After all.

That Su Yu could think of this.

To a certain extent.

Also showed that Su Yu was not blinded by the power contained.

Within this Law Rune: Lava.

But rather, he had his own genuine considerations!

"Genetic modification stock solution..."

Su Yu looked at the hibernation pod before him.

At the top of the pod.

A crystal bottle with a capacity of about one hundred milliliters had already been installed.

Liquid flowing with golden radiance shimmered within.

"This small bottle of liquid can create a Demi-Saint!"

Su Yu took a slight breath.

Yet his heart was still somewhat stirred.

His gaze.

Moved away from the crystal bottle and landed on the hibernation pod in front of him.

One must know.

For Su Yu, who possessed the 【All-Knowing Eye】.

Even for existences at the Demi-Saint or even peak Demi-Saint level.

It was impossible to completely conceal their aura and disguise themselves as an ordinary person in front of him.

But now.

The crystal bottle containing such vast energy.

Did not leak even a single trace of aura!

Even in the vision of the 【All-Knowing Eye】.

This crystal bottle.

Had no energy fluctuation feedback whatsoever!

"Is this the foundation of a supreme being of the universe..."

Su Yu let out a soft breath.

And took a step forward.

Stepping into the hibernation pod.

"Su Yu, before you enter deep cultivation, I have a few reminders."

Gale Thunder said softly.

"First, this cultivation will last a relatively long time. Exactly how much time it takes depends on how solid your foundation is, so you must be mentally prepared."

Su Yu smiled.

This reminder.

Gale Thunder had already told him before.

"As long as it doesn't make me sleep for a hundred or a thousand years, it's fine."

Gale Thunder chuckled.

"It won't come to that. With your talent, you might be able to come out of seclusion in less than a year."

"Perhaps even in just half a year, you will be able to finish refining it."

Su Yu nodded.

This genetic modification stock solution.

According to Gale Thunder's words.

Was enough to raise him from first-star Apocalypse.

To peak Demi-Saint.

But Su Yu did not do that.

Instead, he asked Gale Thunder to lower the concentration of the released stock solution.

He only needed to be raised to first-star Demi-Saint.

This was also based on a comprehensive assessment of his current physical fitness.

The optimal leap in realm given by the All-Knowing Eye.

But even if it was only raised to first-star Demi-Saint.

It was still a terrifying leap!

At the very least.

In Su Yu's original expectations.

If he wanted to step into first-star Demi-Saint.

Without several years of effort.

It would be absolutely impossible to achieve!

And now.

"It only takes a few months?"

This saved time.

Could allow Su Yu to do so many things!

"The second reminder is that while you are in deep cultivation, your body will begin to transform with the assistance of the stock solution, but your spirit will not."

Gale Thunder smiled slightly.

"Therefore, during this time, you can also take the opportunity to study the basic volume of the 'Empress Wa Guiding Method' I gave you."

"This way, when you come out of seclusion, you can try to convert all the accumulated Source Energy into Cosmic Spiritual Energy, and your strength will also receive a thorough and significant boost!"

"This way, you won't waste too much time either."

Su Yu nodded, feeling somewhat pleasantly surprised in his heart.

"Swish!"

After reminding Su Yu.

Gale Thunder and Garuda looked at each other.

And directly activated the hibernation pod.

"Hiss—"

The hibernation pod door closed quietly.

Su Yu's eyes closed slightly.

The next moment.

His consciousness.

Was immersed in the deepest part of his sea of consciousness.

At the same time.

A miraculous energy, like an ocean, slowly surged over.

Enveloping his body.

Although he did not open his eyes.

Su Yu could clearly feel.

Under the scouring of those waves of miraculous energy.

His body.

And even the Spirit Card Space, the spiritual world hidden in the deepest part of his body.

Were all becoming tougher under such tempering!

This was an incredibly wonderful experience.

Su Yu felt as if his soul had sunk to the bottom of the sea, and yet also ascended into the sky.

He could clearly feel.

Every part of his body, and even every cell.

With every passing second.

Was undergoing an astonishing transformation!

"Hoo..."

A moment later.

Su Yu, who had finally adapted to this experience.

Opened his eyes once again!

"I don't know how much time has passed..."

Deep in the sea of consciousness.

Su Yu whispered.

This was the downside of deep cultivation.

In this state.

Even a Spirit Card expert like Su Yu.

Found it difficult to have an accurate sense of time.

It was just like the deep sleep of an ordinary person.

In terms of sensation.

In terms of senses.

It might have only been a few minutes, or even a few seconds.

But upon opening one's eyes, real time might have already passed for over ten minutes, or even several hours!

Fortunately.

Now was not the time to worry about the issue of time.

"It's time to start cultivating!"

Su Yu's gaze.

Became slightly focused.

After shaking off that ethereal spiritual state.

Su Yu only felt that his mental state was unprecedentedly tough and complete!

With a thought.

A miraculous piece of text.

Appeared before him!

It was precisely the "Empress Wa Guiding Method: Basic Volume" that Gale Thunder had taught him!

"The inheritance of the supreme being of the universe, Mechanical Empress, Empress Wa..."

In Su Yu's eyes.

A flash of eagerness passed!

Previously, during the maze trial.

Although he had successfully cultivated a wisp of Cosmic Spiritual Energy.

It was only a superficial attempt.

He had not truly grasped the essence of this guiding method.

Now.

Was the time to properly sort it out!

"Swish!"

Su Yu sat cross-legged.

Faint fluorescence flickered on the body condensed from spirit in his sea of consciousness.

Reflecting and echoing with the scripture floating before him.

Giving this dark sea of consciousness.

An added touch of indescribable wonder!

Just as Su Yu.

Began to cultivate the guiding method.

In the hall on the ninety-eighth floor of the Void God Tower.

Gale Thunder and Garuda.

Were also both sitting cross-legged.

"When do you plan to tell Su Hou about the abnormal movements on Blue Star?"

Garuda raised its eyes to look at Gale Thunder.

"Let's wait until he steps into the peak of high-level Spirit User and refines that Lava Rune before discussing this matter."

Gale Thunder said indifferently.

"Although Su Hou's talent and strength are already quite impressive in this plane, he is still too weak when placed in the vast universe."

"Telling him too many things in advance will only affect his cultivation."

Garuda nodded slightly, its gaze also falling onto the hibernation pod.

But just a moment later.

In Garuda's huge beast pupils.

A flash of intense shock appeared: "Hmm? What's going on?!"
