Cultivation: But Not a Game

Chapter 457 - 318: A New Discovery—An Immortal Array Still Operating After Hundreds of Thousands of Years

"Hey, this Nine-Turn Revival Grass is growing splendidly here."

"Wow, is this ginseng forest really this dense?"

"This ginseng here must be tens of thousands of years old, right? It’s at least a fifth-grade herb by standards."

"Oh, there’s more inside."

Su Yu smiled and dug up a few plants, then with a wave of his hand, replicated the process, transferring this entire area along with the underground soil into the Sea Suppressing Realm.

Unfortunately, he didn’t find any ginseng over a hundred thousand years old, probably devoured by the guardian beasts.

Even though he only swept through roughly, he frequently came across valuable treasures, tempting him to stop and collect them.

As he walked and stopped along the way, he quickly reached another towering peak and saw from a distance three Celestial Eye People surrounding the corpse of a legendary Thunder Beast. He glanced at it, then at the spot on the mountainside where spiritual energy was gathering, seeing a treasure light rising.

Shrouded in spiritual mist, it was unclear what kind of celestial herb was inside.

Su Yu stopped to take a glance, then turned and walked away within three seconds.

"Boom!"

Roaring thunder exploded, a thick bolt of lightning flashed and exploded in front of him, revealing a Celestial Eye person blocking his path.

Level 242, Golden Core Cultivation.

He smiled as he scrutinized Su Yu and said:

"I’m very impressed by you, daring to venture out alone with just a Foundation Establishment cultivation, you must be a top elite of the Human Race. Killing you will surely earn the favor of our race’s will and bring me more fortune."

Su Yu chuckled lightly, saying:

"You know I’m a top human elite, haven’t you thought about me killing you in return?"

The Celestial Eye person laughed and said:

"I have, but I don’t think you can kill me."

"I’ve seen top elites like you before, really strong, generally, Golden Core cultivators aren’t necessarily your match. I guess in your human territory, you often challenge or defeat bosses or Golden Core cultivators exceeding your level?"

"But the Golden Core cultivators in our race’s hinterlands are different from those in the Immortal Realm here. You might surpass levels there, but not here."

Su Yu twisted his neck and smiled, saying:

"Do you want to give it a try?"

"Yes, I want to try."

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Yu reached out a finger:

"Time Stasis!"

The person’s expression changed, quickly activating a treasure, with spiritual light surging from him and a treasure rising above his head, yet in that instant, the Power of Time froze him.

Su Yu pulled out the Sky-Cleaving Divine Axe, flashed in front of him, and slashed down. The divine axe directly cut through the Magical Robe, killing him in two strikes.

In less than a second, the other two Celestial Eye People hadn’t reacted.

"Damn it!"

The two quickly summoned defense treasures, one brought out an ancient mirror aimed at him, but the Cyan Cloud Cover rose, directly blocking the treasure light.

The other threw a blue gourd, which rapidly expanded to a thousand feet, with a great river formed by the essence of Guishui sweeping down from the sky across the void.

"Innate Water Thunder!"

The person pointed with a finger, the Power of Law surged, the terrifying essence of innate Guishui and lunar water exploded madly, the power level was close to the Vast Sea’s 200-level standard.

But...

A blue light sphere rose above Su Yu’s head, the formless Power of the Water Element Law spread out, forcefully pacifying the boiling essence of Guishui, drastically reducing its power.

When everyone masters the Water Element Law, the same attribute’s power will be greatly diminished.

Su Yu had grasped four kinds of laws: Time which he naturally commanded, Life and Fire Element by Supreme Transformation Dragon, and Water Element granted by the Sea-Suppressing Pearl. Magic and divine techniques corresponding to these four laws posed no threat to him.

"He also mastered the Water Element Law?"

The Celestial Eye person who wielded the Innate Water Thunder grabbed back the gourd and then threw out a green cord, which wrapped around Su Yu’s head, forming a circle but was held by the Cyan Cloud Cover, unable to fall down.

"Immune to All Skill?"

The other Celestial Eye person decisively took out a talisman:

"This guy is a bit freakish, let’s just use the Immortal Talisman."

"Alright."

The Jade Talisman burned and rose, dispelling the clouds above, and a Celestial Immortal’s shadow emerged, pointing a jade finger at Su Yu.

Like a mountain ridge, the jade finger soared across the sky, the air turning viscous.

The other Celestial Eye person also activated an Immortal Talisman, a colossal jade hand appeared pressing down from above.

Su Yu looked up and smiled:

"Forget it, let’s just settle this quickly."

Exhaling softly, he disappeared, replaced by a rapidly expanding red dragon.

The celestial jade finger struck the red dragon’s forehead, violent airwaves exploded a hundred miles away.

The jade hand pressed on the red dragon’s massive body, forcing it downward, yet it was unharmed.

"A Celestial Immortal-level True Dragon?"

The two Celestial Eye People were shocked and immediately turned to flee without hesitation.

"Star Shift!"

The sky darkened, with a myriad of stars emerging, the red dragon’s claw marked two stars in an instant, its massive form vanished, and in the next second, near-instantly appeared above one Celestial Eye Person, pressing down a claw.

"Ah!"

He frantically channeled Mana over his defense treasure above his head.

The dragon claw tapped on the treasure bell, the bell dipped heavily, a violent airwave exploded.

The dragon finger slightly shook and tapped down again.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Three consecutive blasts broke the treasure bell, a finger shattered the Protective Spiritual Light, another pierced through the protective barrier, and a final one shattered him to pieces.

"Not bad, to withstand six hits."

The red dragon turned, flickering out of sight, appearing a minute later over an unnamed mountain two thousand kilometers away, its dragon eyes lowered, chuckling:

"Clever move!"

This person used Earth Escape Skill to burrow deep underground, at least a hundred kilometers deep.

"Forget it."

The red dragon shook its head and turned back.

If he really wanted to find him, he could, but it was too much trouble.

Returning to the previous canyon, he dug up a Crimson Sun Golden Crow Fruit and a bunch of fire element Spirit Grasses.
