Cultivation: But Not a Game-Chapter 205 - 116: Return to Feixing Island, A Partner in Perfect Soul Harmony
"Second brother, I’m going to Feixing Island for a trip."
Since there’s no rush to reforge the Demon Fire Golden Banner, the money can be used elsewhere.
Su Yu couldn’t stop thinking about the Immortal’s Manual he saw on Feixing Island before. He wanted to make another trip to see if it’s still there. If it is, he’ll sell everything he has to buy it and quickly enhance his strength.
With his innate attributes, this thing might be able to boost his Heart Skill by twenty or thirty layers in one go.
Moreover, he had a strong premonition that he could gain benefits left by the immortals from this Immortal’s Manual.
One Immortal’s Manual could save tens of billions of cultivation points and thousands of years of cultivation, and there’s even a chance to comprehend the benefits left by an immortal. It’s definitely worth the expense.
At this time, Su Huan sent over a message:
"That’s a coincidence; Miss Luo Qingchan happens to need to buy some things at Feixing Island too, so you can escort her there."
"Does she even need an escort..."
Su Yu smirked and nodded, "Alright, when do we leave?"
"The day after tomorrow morning, West Gate of Jinjiao City."
"Okay."
After ending the communication, Su Yu bought some materials in the market and headed into the Sea-Suppressing Pearl.
Ao Run was having a good time, and the Divine Maiden was diligently expanding the space within the Sea-Suppressing Pearl. Currently, the radius inside had expanded to over ten kilometers, many times larger than before.
Additionally, after continuously absorbing a large amount of Innate Origin, the Innate Divine Maiden had obviously become much stronger.
Although her level was still 0, she was no longer in a half-dead state and had some abilities. At least within the Sea Suppressing Realm, she could mobilize the Power of Origin to suppress enemies.
Su Yu routinely communicated with her briefly before returning to his abode.
"Hmm!"
He hadn’t paid attention in a while, and suddenly discovered that the millennium vermilion fruit tree planted in the spiritual field had already borne thirty-six millennium vermilion fruits.
Though the fruits were still unripe and small, they were at least growing.
"They’ll mature in about a year in reality."
Su Yu clapped his hands excitedly, filled with joy.
"The spiritual land within this realm is still too small, it needs to be expanded a bit."
But thinking about relocating mountains, rocks, and trees from the outside, the enormity of the task made his scalp tingle.
Moreover, since the space within the Sea-Suppressing Pearl continues to expand, he can never keep up with its expansion.
"I need some Xing Soil, for a one-time, hassle-free solution."
Xing Soil is a divine substance of earth, capable of endlessly generating land. Obtaining a piece and tossing it into the Sea-Suppressing Pearl can quickly generate a land mass, even create a continent.
But the problem was, where could he find Xing Soil?
He scratched his head and sent a message to his second brother:
"Second brother, do you know where to find Xing Soil?"
Su Huan, puzzled, asked:
"What do you want that for?"
"Just asking, also curious about the price."
"It’s really expensive. I remember at a super auction held by several super merchant guilds on Blue Mountain Island a few years ago, they sold a few pieces of Xing Soil, and the final auction price was as high as 80,000 gold per piece."
"That expensive?"
"What did you expect, this substance can endlessly generate, and what it generates is primordial spiritual soil."
"If you want it, start saving money. The super auction is generally held every ten years. The last one was six years ago, so there’s about three to five years until the next one. Save up some money for it."
"Alright."
For the next two days, Su Yu stayed inside the Sea-Suppressing Pearl, brewing some wine when he had time, and studying arrays.
Early in the day after tomorrow, he set out and waited at the West Gate of Jinjiao City. As soon as the time arrived, he heard someone calling him. Turning around, he saw a beautifully elegant Jade Sinking Ship suspended several dozen meters in the air, with a graceful figure leaning out, revealing an ethereal clean beauty.
"Miss Qingchan!"
Su Yu leaped onto the Spiritual Wing Flying Ship and greeted, Luo Qingchan nodded slightly, and the Jade Sinking Ship soared into the sky heading west.
After they left, second brother and second sister-in-law walked out from behind the window of a small building’s second floor not far away. He said with a smile:
"The opportunity has been created for them; now it depends on whether the little brother can seize it."
The second sister-in-law, Meng Siyi, wasn’t as optimistic as her husband and shook her head, "Don’t get too excited. I’ve come to understand a bit about Miss Qingchan’s character during her stay here. She is very self-assured, if she fancies someone, she will let them know. If not, no amount of time will change her mind, and she’s not interested right now. I don’t think there’s much of a chance."
Su Huan laughed and said:
"I know, but I understand that Miss Qingchan’s attitude towards the little brother is slightly different from others. It’s worth a try."
"Do what you must, and leave the rest to fate. Even if nothing happens, being friends is good too."
"It’s good that you think that way. If they return and nothing develops, so be it. Just make sure it doesn’t end like with your senior brothers, who didn’t know the limits and offended Miss Qingchan."
"I’ll keep that in mind."
....
The Jade Sinking Ship, Su Yu had heard of it, was a higher grade than his Dragon Scale Flying Ship. It should be Tier Eight, capable of reaching the Nine Heavens Gang Wind Layer and venturing deep into the Nether Reaches beneath; almost any place was reachable.
The speed of the Jade Sinking Ship is even faster than the Dragon Scale Flying Ship, quickly leaving Jinjiao Island and entering the vast ocean.
At the bow, Su Yu admired the beautiful scenery outside while casually taking a sip of Monkey Brew from a jade gourd. He then took a regular wine gourd from the Sea-Suppressing Pearl and handed it to Luo Qingchan:
"This is the Monkey Brew I made myself, brewed from a hundred fruits. It tastes great and won’t get you drunk, want to try it?"
Luo Qingchan lifted her beautiful eyes to look at Su Yu, then took the gourd and sipped a little, saying crisply:
"It’s indeed quite delicious."
"Is your life profession a brewer?"
"Yeah, most of the time I’m leveling up now. Whenever I have some free time, I just study these less demanding professions."
"How about you? Do you study anything in your free time while leveling up?"
She shook her head and said:
"I don’t have the time for that."
Su Yu laughed and said:
"Even in cultivation, you should combine work with rest. Occasionally, taking the time to study less demanding professions can relax your mind, you might want to give it a try..."
With nothing else to do, Su Yu and Luo Qingchan chatted while drinking.
Though she usually appeared very aloof, once she accepted you, she was quite talkative.
The Jade Sinking Ship was extremely fast, far faster than the Dragon Scale Flying Ship, quickly leaving Jinjiao Island and heading into the depths of the vast ocean. When there were fewer people around, Su Yu twisted his neck and smiled back to ask:
"Traveling continuously is quite boring, how about we level up while moving forward?"
Luo Qingchan also had this intention, and immediately maneuvered the Jade Sinking Ship to descend to the sea surface. Su Yu reached out and pulled Ao Run out, who still had a Five-Colored Spirit Fish dangling from her mouth.
"All you do is eat every day."
Su Yu was about to take the Five-Colored Spirit Fish from her mouth when she immediately swallowed it whole, prompting him to smack her on the forehead in anger, pick her up by the neck and throw her into the sea:
"Don’t run around while following us."
With a long dragon’s roar, a flash of blue light, Ao Run’s body rapidly expanded into a two-hundred-meter-long azure dragon. She spouted a mouthful of seawater at Su Yu before diving into the sea and disappearing.
"Getting more cheeky."
Seeing a smile on Luo Qingchan’s face, he smiled too and jumped into the sea.
Soon, Luo Qingchan also jumped into the sea, with a bright blue pearl above her head pushing the water away.
The peerless beauty floated virtually in the sea, surrounded by clear, pristine water, her skirt gently floating as if an immortal goddess had descended.
"So beautiful."
Pointing a finger, the Thunderbolt pierced through the sea, in the blink of an eye reaching a school of large fish several kilometers away. The twin swords parted and encircled the seventy to eighty high-level sea fish, sword Qi weaving back and forth. In a moment, dozens of large fish turned into a pile of fish chunks.
He turned to look at Luo Qingchan, and in just this short time, she had already slain over two hundred deep-sea fish, her efficiency more than double his.
Unable to resist, Su Yu asked:
"What tier are your two flying swords?"
Luo Qingchan didn’t answer, instead directly sharing the attributes of one of her flying swords with him for a look.
Thunder Marsh Divine Sword (Tier Nine): Divine Weapon, Rare Ancient Treasure, sword of an Ancient Immortal.
Attributes: Attack 5600-7000, Attack Speed 4200-5400, Sword Control Speed 4300-5500, Sword Formulas bonus 100%, Traits: Armor Penetration +10, Thunder Marsh, Cognizant.
Armor Penetration +10: Attacks ignore 100% of the target’s defense.
Thunder Marsh: Condenses the Power of Pure Yang Thunder, boosts attack power and attack speed by 200% when activated, lasts 30 seconds, 24-hour cooldown.
Cognizant: The flying sword has a spirit, will alert or automatically confront enemies when sensing the owner in danger.
"Wow, a Tier Nine Rare Ancient Treasure?"
Seeing these attributes left Su Yu’s eyes wide open with envy.
"Is your other one also Tier Nine?"
"Yes."
"Amazing!"
A Rare Ancient Treasure is of immortal grade, with some attributes even stronger than typical Tier Ten treasures.
He had previously guessed her two flying swords were of extraordinary grade, at least Tier Eight or even Nine, but the reality was even stronger than he imagined, two Tier Nine flying swords.
Thinking about her two Tier Nine Rare Ancient Treasures, while he only had a pair of Tier Six flying swords, three whole tiers behind.
"So enviable."
The difference in flying swords is vividly reflected in combat power. She didn’t even go all out, yet her offensive efficiency was more than double his, slicing through seventy to eighty-level beasts in a single sweep, and even going all out, even a general Loose Immortal wouldn’t match her output.
With such freakish output, the two of them rapidly swept through, slashing their way forward.
They didn’t dive into the seafloor, hovering over five hundred meters above, where the water layer mainly consisted of experience monsters and rarely any BOSS.
While fighting monsters and traveling, time slowly passed.
Unknowingly, over a month had passed, and while fighting monsters and traveling, the two had already crossed a tremendous distance, reaching the Feixing Islands region.
After over a month of spending days and nights together, no romantic feelings had developed, but the two, who were already quite in tune with each other, found themselves increasingly comfortable together.
Leveling up, dividing tasks to surround and slay BOSS, with just a word, a glance, or seeing each other’s actions was enough to know how to cooperate, without the need for intricate communication.
Both individuals had strong powers, although Su Yu’s flying sword and swordsmanship were inferior to Luo Qingchan’s, he compensated with other magical treasures and spells. Overall, the difference wasn’t much, with both individuals able to keep pace with each other’s rhythm, which was crucial.
