I need to go into seclusion!\" Little Cai urgently called out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A spatial portal materialized out of thin air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Cai dove straight into it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the portal vanished, Little Cai disappeared without a trace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon after, streams of pure energy suddenly appeared within Su Yuan's body, rapidly spreading throughout his entire being.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He immediately felt his magical power surging at an astonishing rate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To his surprise, Little Cai's refinement speed of the flesh was dozens of times faster than absorbing spirit stones!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yuan chuckled helplessly, \"You can't handle this meat—it would explode you instantly!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Ju showed a disappointed expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But with some processing, it should be edible! Well, maybe just a sip of the broth at most.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, Su Yuan summoned the Myriad Treasures Heaven-Earth Cauldron, which instantly transformed into a giant cooking pot. After tossing in the meat chunk, he instructed Old Qian, \"Help stew this, would you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Qian sighed, \"Such a laborious fate!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yuan rolled his eyes, \"Don't worry, you'll get to taste some good treasures eventually!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Qian then asked curiously, \"What's the deal with this meat? How did it appear out of nowhere?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yuan smiled faintly, \"This meat... fell from the sky!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pointed upward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Qian scoffed, \"You can fool Little Cai with that, but why bother lying to me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He went off to tend to the stew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yuan was speechless—he had told the truth! Wasn't the Immortal Realm essentially the \"sky\"? Meat from the Immortal Realm literally fell from above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, Xiao Lan brought out a table full of dishes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, please enjoy your meal!\" Xiao Lan said eagerly, her eyes curiously drifting toward the simmering meat broth, its rich aroma making her swallow hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Excellent work!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yuan surveyed the spread—the large plate of chicken, roasted goose, spirit vegetables, and a jug of spirit wine—and nodded approvingly. \"You've done well, Xiao Lan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Lan grinned triumphantly, shooting a challenging glance at Xiao Ju.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Ju continued massaging Su Yuan's shoulders, ignoring her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he ate, Su Yuan pondered deeply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn't expected the combined effects of the [World Traveler], [Mind Echo], and [Seven Stars Shine Bright] traits to actually enable cross-world item teleportation!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another attempt confirmed that within this world, item teleportation didn't work because the [World Traveler] trait couldn't activate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This seemed absurd, but it highlighted how system traits functioned like absolute rules—either they worked or they didn't.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yuan's mind buzzed with possibilities. With seven true dragons assisting him, he could frequently visit the Immortal Realm and bring back resources to accelerate his cultivation!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could literally sit at home while treasures rained from the heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the seven dragons were confined to their territories, limiting the resources they could provide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Immortal Realm was too advanced—even the pre-immortal stages were condensed into just four realms. His current strength would barely place him in the second-lowest tier there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Deep in thought, Su Yuan wondered how to make beings from other worlds invoke his name, allowing him to manifest there and harvest more resources—and more importantly, fame points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gazed at the sky, where the Big Dipper constellation caught his eye again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Both the Immortal Origin Realm and Tianyuan Realm can see the Big Dipper... if other worlds share this feature... then perhaps there's a way!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yuan knew many star cultivators across worlds used the Big Dipper as their focal constellation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These cultivators could derive revelations through stellar divination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he embedded cultivation techniques within the Big Dipper's light, would star cultivators in other worlds receive these transmissions? And if they chanted specific invocations, could they activate his [Mind Echo]?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He recalled when Elder Nangong Xianweng sought the Big Dipper's approval—his consciousness had inexplicably traveled to the constellation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could he have imprinted techniques there at that time?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Celestial legacies from the stars... where every utterance is known... outer gods invading, collecting offerings and bestowing boons...\" Su Yuan muttered, his expression turning slightly odd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unintentionally, this was veering into peculiar territory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn it, I just want resources and fame points!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He'd considered how ranking up his fame in the Immortal Realm might work, but gaining recognition there was difficult. Other worlds might prove easier and more controllable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even if they mistake me for some evil god—so what? Can they cross worlds to confront me? This could actually work!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Turning his thoughts to the Scripture Pavilion, he realized, \"Gu You, Zhuge Jian, and the others should have met the stellar acknowledgment criteria by now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a mental command, he summoned Su Da.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bring Gu You, Xie Yingying, Zhuge Jian, and Nangong Huoyu here,\" Su Yuan instructed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Da bowed, \"At once, Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Carrying Su Yuan's token, Su Da left Cave #6 for the first time since gaining human form, happily exploring the sect grounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Disciples stared curiously at this unfamiliar Golden Core expert until they noticed his token—this was actually a spirit beast?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the Scripture Pavilion, Su Da sensed a familiar aura and followed it to a young cultivator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu You, who had been meditating on Su Yuan's techniques, was startled when the spirit fish in his pocket stirred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking it out, he saw it looking astonished at the approaching figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu You immediately bowed, \"Greetings, Elder!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Da waved dismissively, \"I'm no elder—just Master's spirit companion. Or perhaps attendant?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noticing the fish, he greeted, \"Thirteenth Brother! You've reached second rank? How are the others?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fish replied, \"Second Brother! You broke through to third rank?! What about our siblings?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Da smiled, \"I'm Su Da now. With Master's pills, I reached third rank. Four others did too, and the rest are nearing breakthrough!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fish was stunned, \"All of them?! So fast?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Da sighed, \"You... Master's resources are endless. Why did you leave? You're still only early second rank with impure bloodlines. Where are the others?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fish fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Realizing this Golden Core expert was one of Su Yuan's transformed spirit fish—Thirteenth's elder brother no less—Gu You felt guilty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thirteenth had sacrificed so much by staying with him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You needed me for something?\" Gu You asked respectfully, comforting the despondent fish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Da said flatly, \"Master summons Gu You, Xie Yingying, Zhuge Jian, and Nangong Huoyu. You're Gu You? Fetch the others.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu You nodded and used his token to call the three.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they arrived, all three paid respects to Su Da, who remained unimpressed. Noticing Xie Yingying's spirit fish, he sighed again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Follow me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a wave, Su Da conjured a cloud that carried all four toward Cave #6.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While Zhuge Jian and Nangong Huoyu were unfazed, the two spirit fish were awestruck by Su Da's prowess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(Su Da would have laughed—after daily cloud-herding practice, such skills came naturally.)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon arrival, the rich aroma of stewed meat made their mouths water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yuan greeted them cheerfully, \"Perfect timing! This fifth-rank demon beast stew is almost ready—you're in for a treat!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhuge Jian gasped, \"Ancestor, this is fifth-rank meat?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't be shocked—just a lucky find for fun. But you're too weak;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>just have some broth.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yuan summoned four stone bowls and portioned out the soup, each containing only a sliver of meat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thirteenth peeked from Gu You's pocket, eyes glued to that precious meat strand.\u003C\u002Fp>",1243,"2026-05-30T17:32:16.605Z","2026-06-01T04:31:47.954Z",1,"novelbin.me","8df034835cf0787efcdb481965a18f2b07ea2b8a16b8a6848a2cf89ecbcae41d","steady-cultivation-starting-with-the-perk-work-h-chapter-102",null,640,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsteady-cultivation-starting-with-the-perk-work-h-cover.jpg"]
