Chapter 1345: 527 Power Shift, Planning
Having absorbed the surrounding Immortal Qi to evolve itself, the Rank Nine top-tier Temporal-Spatial Tribulation Talisman's aura transformed, eventually each Talisman Pattern became restrained and unremarkable, falling into Su Yu's hands and seeming nothing more than an ordinary golden leaf.
However, this leaf originated from his own body and was also the best Talisman Paper material that Su Yu could find and feel.
Moreover, the name "Temporal-Spatial Tribulation" mainly stemmed from the various Immortal Tribulations Su Yu had observed over the years, using his insights into Immortal Tribulation, coupled with the fortune of his own Space-Time Dao, to eventually create this Rank Nine top-tier talisman.
It was unknown whether a common Crossing Tribulation Realm Demi Immortal at their pinnacle could withstand this finished Temporal-Spatial Tribulation.
Of course.
Su Yu felt it didn't matter whether it could be withstood or not.
If one Temporal-Spatial Tribulation Talisman wasn't enough, then use ten, if ten weren't enough then use a hundred.
After all, he wasn't short of leaves.
Perceiving the aura of the Temporal-Spatial Tribulation Talisman, Su Yu smiled lightly and stored it away, then a wave of his hand produced another leaf in his grasp: "Continue."
With the current strength of Su Yu's Dao body, drawing a Rank Nine top-tier Talisman was not difficult.
Furthermore, given Su Yu's understanding of the Space-Time Dao and Immortal Tribulation, his proficiency in drawing the Temporal-Spatial Tribulation Talisman improved rapidly.
On average, it took just over a month to complete one talisman, so drawing about eight Temporal-Spatial Tribulation Talismans in a year was no problem.
He wasn't short of Talisman Paper, nor was he short of Talisman Ink materials.
Having previously consumed the top-tier Thunderwood from Dao Venerable Lei Ting, the juice within was enough to refine tens of thousands of portions of top-tier Talisman Ink materials.
And such Talisman Ink was the perfect match for drawing Temporal-Spatial Tribulations.
Another sixty years passed.
Atop the Immortal Mountain.
Su Yu's original body slowly opened his eyes, an unprecedented aura of the Immortal Realm radiating from him, especially his body which seemed to have undergone a qualitative transformation, appearing not human, but rather like an Immortal descending to the mortal world.
Awakening from his meditation, a hint of surprise flashed in Su Yu's eyes as his mind turned towards the proficiency panel.
[Su Yu.]
[Cultivation: Mid-Phase Mahayana Realm.]
[Cultivation Techniques: Five Elements Method (Mid-Phase Mahayana Realm, proficiency 48.96%), Heavenly Immortal Body Refining Art (Nine Layers, proficiency 41.33%), Blood Whale Swallowing Moon Skill (Fifth Realm, Perfection), Supreme Taiyi Dao Law (Perfection).... Eight Lives Golden Cicada Reincarnation Law (Eight Layers, proficiency 88.96%), Heavenly Refining Divine Art (Nine Layers, proficiency 34.46%), Immortal Transformation Scripture (Nine Layers, proficiency 83.79%).]
[Spells: Star God Technique (Perfection)..... Void Escape Method (Perfection), Precognitive Sense (Major Accomplishment, proficiency 91.27%), Vajra Form (Perfection), Thunder Bottle Seal (Perfection), Vajra Subduing Demon Saber Technique (Perfection).]
Meditating for over two hundred years, his Mana Cultivation had successfully broken through to the Mid-Phase Mahayana Realm.
Unexpectedly, the Heavenly Immortal Body Refining Art and Heavenly Refining Divine Art had made good progress, seemingly evolving alongside his bodily transformation, both breaking through to the ninth layer.
"Second Layer Foundation of Immortal Body having Immortal Blood achieved Perfection, indeed not a minor improvement to the body," Su Yu silently perceived his own changes.
Tiny specks of starlight filled his body, akin to the stars in the cosmos.
And the strength of his body now, he felt, was comparable to a Half-immortal Instrument, much like his Dividing the Spirit Dao body.
With two layers of Body Refinement reaching the ninth level, plus the completion of two layers of Immortal Body Foundation, it was hard for Su Yu himself to say just how strong his current physical body actually was.
He then checked other cultivation techniques.
Su Yu's gaze lingered on the Eight Lives Golden Cicada Reincarnation Law, pondering, this technique primarily cultivated the Divine Soul.
"Perhaps, after I complete the third layer of the Immortal Body Foundation and the transformation of the Divine Soul," Su Yu mused, "this Cultivation Technique might reach Perfection?"
Feeling the transformation and enhancement of his own strength, Su Yu was in high spirits, his face brimming with smiles.
He looked in the direction of his Divided Spirit's Dao Body, which was still contemplating and drawing talismans even during cultivation.
He glanced again at the proficiency panel.
[Talisman: Temporal-Spatial Tribulation (Rank Nine Top-Tier, Proficiency 47.84%).]
In just over sixty years, the proficiency of the Temporal-Spatial Tribulation had nearly increased by forty points.
With a bit more effort and maybe a hundred more years, raising it to eighty or ninety percent should not be difficult.
Then he would try to create new talismans for other purposes.
"Let's go for a stroll first."
Su Yu surveyed the outside of the Immortal Mountain, noting the figures of Tian Wuji, Nan Xiaogu, Daoist Tianyu, Fan Xiao, Su Zhi, and others, as well as the conditions of the Beast Taming figures such as the Black Tortoise of the Overflowing Sea, Taixu, and the Black Dragon.
In the blink of an eye, the condition of everyone was clear to him.
Yet, none of them, including Tian Wuji, had noticed anything unusual.
"The enhancements of the Space-Time Divine Skills and Precognitive Sense are quite effective together; even my senior brother and the Master of Nan Ji haven't noticed me spying," Su Yu thought to himself.
He had brought Tian Wuji, the Master of Nan Ji, and others into this Outer Realm to cultivate for over a hundred years.
Tian Wuji and the Master of Nan Ji had gained quite a lot.
His senior brother had probably almost completed half of the transformation for the first layer of the Immortal Body Foundation. Perhaps with a few hundred more years of cultivation, he could complete the first layer of the Immortal Body and Immortal Bone Foundation.
Su Yu pondered teaching them the Cultivation Techniques of the three-layer Immortal Body Foundation after they had completed the first layer.
This way, when they later ascended to the Immortal Realm, they could start at a higher level.
He looked again at Tian Wuji and the Master of Nan Ji; the two of them were the highest in cultivation here, apart from himself, both in the early stages of the Crossing Tribulation Realm.
"My senior brother is probably not far from the mid-stage of the Crossing Tribulation Realm, but Uncle Master of Nan Ji still has some way to go," Su Yu began to think about the arrangements after his own cultivation reached the peak of the Crossing Tribulation Realm.
Since his master, Emperor Zhenwu, and other powerful beings had either left the Cultivation World, ascended to the Immortal Realm, or perished under the Immortal Tribulation...
The Cultivation World had now fallen under the control of certain powers from the Immortal Realm.
"Later, after I cleanse the Cultivation World, I will then open up the gateway to the Kunwu Cultivation World, allowing the Demi Immortals from the White Jade Immortal Realm to also choose to ascend to the Immortal Realm..."
"This should allow the Immortal Court to take control of the Cultivation World again. However, those people have set their sights on the Origin Opportunity of the Cultivation World. As long as the Realm Master does not appear, they will never give up and will keep sending people down."
Su Yu furrowed his brow, thinking that before ascending to the Immortal Realm, he would try to find the source of the Cultivation World to end their intentions.
Only in this way could he protect the True Martial Immortal Court, the Earth Immortal Mansion, the Su Family, and others from threats.
He could not act like Daoist Shangqing or Emperor Zhenwu, who could just leave and ascend, abandoning everything to enter the Immortal Realm.
Shifting his thoughts, Su Yu looked again at his three Beast Taming creatures.
The cultivation progress of the Black Tortoise of the Overflowing Sea, Taixu, and the Black Dragon was quite stable; they had all broken through to Rank Eight. Among them, the Black Dragon's cultivation had increased the fastest, now at Rank Eight Superior.
And due to the nourishment of Immortal Qi, Su Yu felt that the Black Dragon's strength could perhaps even match a typical early-stage Crossing Tribulation Realm Demi Immortal in a fight.
The Black Tortoise of the Overflowing Sea and Taixu, however, were still at Rank Eight Middle-Tier, which was not bad.
