Chapter 142: Terrifying Creatures! | Wan Zu Zhi Jie [Trans]
Wan Zu Zhi Jie [Trans] - Updated on March 19, 2025
Liu Hong’s fanning the flames annoyed Su Yu, but he couldn’t stop others from competing for first place.
Su Yu wasn’t actually confident about winning the Divine Script Competition.
Mainly because his willpower accumulation wasn’t high enough. As of now, his willpower accumulation had only just recovered to 55%.
People like Zheng Yunhui had accumulation levels of around 85%.
Previously, he had obtained 10 drops of Essence Blood of the Soul-Devouring Insect from Xia Huyou. Su Yu originally thought that the Soul-Devouring Art might increase willpower and was a cultivation technique for willpower. But after trying it once, Su Yu realized he was wrong.
It wasn’t for cultivating willpower!
That thing was for corroding and devouring willpower.
“The Soul-Devouring Art isn’t suitable for sparring, unless I encounter enemies…”
Su Yu murmured to himself. It was something that truly harmed willpower. Using this technique in sparring would be somewhat vicious.
But if it was an enemy, this technique was actually quite good.
…
The day’s classes passed in Su Yu’s contemplation.
Wu Lan, who hadn’t paid attention to him for several days, passed by Su Yu with a proud look when class ended!
Before that, she had been avoiding Su Yu.
Su Yu hadn’t understood why, but when she passed by him, her willpower kept fluctuating… Su Yu was speechless!
So she was showing off her willpower!
Wu Lan’s willpower accumulation was indeed higher than Su Yu’s. After all, she had entered the Tempering Nature realm before the advanced assessment, and now it was probably close to 70%.
“Did she really need to show it off?”
Su Yu was speechless. This fool was really like a child.
He had also figured out why she ran away whenever she saw him: she was self-conscious because she hadn’t entered Thousand Pound Realm Tier 3.
Now she was looking for a sense of validation!
Thinking this in his heart, Su Yu smiled and, seeing her passing by again with a smug expression, Su Yu laughed and said, “Wu Lan, what’s your willpower accumulation?”
Wu Lan was immediately overjoyed!
She finally asked!
“Just reached 70%!”
Wu Lan reluctantly tried to appear nonchalant and casually said, “The increase rate is too slow. I’ll try to reach 80% accumulation next month!”
Su Yu smiled, gave her a thumbs up, and exclaimed, “Amazing! I’m only at 55%. Wu Lan, you’re so much higher than me!”
Wu Lan was greatly pleased!
Extremely happy!
She finally had something she was better at than this guy!
Pretending to be calm, trying to maintain her composure, her voice even trembling slightly, she replied, “It’s nothing, you’re not bad either! You have to be careful when you encounter me in tomorrow’s Divine Script Competition and monthly exam!”
Su Yu nodded with a smile.
Wu Lan, holding her head high, was in a very good mood. She didn’t dwell on previous events and asked, “You’ve been in Thousand Pound Realm Tier 3 for so many days, how many apertures have you opened?”
Su Yu calculated that he should have opened 72 apertures.
At the moment, there were still others in the class who hadn’t left, and many were listening attentively.
How many more apertures had Su Yu opened?
Had he reached Thousand Pound Realm Tier 4?
Zheng Yunhui and a few others knew that he had entered Thousand Pound Realm Tier 5. Of course, that was 9 days ago. The current Su Yu might have reached Thousand Pound Realm Tier 6, or maybe not.
Su Yu thought for a moment and held up six fingers.
Saying how many apertures he had opened was too much; he couldn’t show it with his fingers.
6 meant he had advanced 6 tiers!
He wasn’t lying!
An honest person doesn’t lie and always tells the truth.
“6…”
Wu Lan muttered. Not bad.
Su Yu entered Thousand Pound Realm Tier 3 on the 1st. After a month, he had opened 6 apertures. It wasn’t slow; on the contrary, it was quite fast.
But with 6, Wu Lan smiled.
A bit of joy!
She still had a chance to catch up!
Wu Lan said somewhat proudly, “Not bad, Su Yu, keep up the good work! Otherwise, I’ll catch up to you soon. I’ve been cultivating very quickly since entering Thousand Pound Realm Tier 2. I’ve already opened 3 apertures in the last few days!”
Su Yu had opened 42 apertures in total, and she had opened 27 apertures. The gap wasn’t that big!
Su Yu smiled. That’s what you think. I didn’t say that.
Over there, Zheng Yunhui curled his lip. Was Su Yu saying that he opened 6 apertures after that?
He had already opened 66 before. So, had he really reached Thousand Pound Realm Tier 6?
This kid’s progress was really fast.
Not only Zheng Yunhui thought that way; Xia Huyou and a few others also speculated that Su Yu had probably reached Thousand Pound Realm Tier 6. This guy really had a talent for the physical path. It had only been a few days, and he was already in Thousand Pound Realm Tier 6.
Wu Lan felt like she had the upper hand this time, and she was in a much better mood. She said somewhat happily and proudly, “Su Yu, if I get first place in the Divine Script Competition tomorrow, if you want that post, beg me and I’ll give it to you!”
Su Yu was very arrogant!
If I get first place tomorrow, will you beg me?
Su Yu opened his mouth, and after a long pause, he said dryly, “Okay, then I congratulate you on getting first place in advance!”
What was this woman thinking!
If you can get first place, I’ll write my name Su backwards!
Why didn’t she have any self-awareness?
Women, indeed, are emotional creatures. They’re not rational at all. Can’t we analyze this rationally?
The others were holding back their laughter, and no one spoke.
Don’t speak; you’ll get roasted if you do.
What Wu Lan thinks is her business.
…
Outside the classroom.
Xia Huyou followed up and whispered, “Are you confident in getting it back?”
“No.”
Su Yu shook his head and thought for a moment, saying, “If it really doesn’t work out, I can only buy it back. My grandmaster likes it; it can’t be left out there. I’ll just spend more money. But I’m worried that others will try to rip me off. If I can’t get it tomorrow, I’ll have to trouble you.”
He had thought that if he couldn’t win, he would definitely have to buy it back.
He was also afraid that others would try to rip him off!
Everyone knew that it was something from their lineage, so it was normal to hold out for a higher price.
Su Yu whispered, “If I really don’t get first place, you and I will bid against each other. You understand what I mean, right?”
Xia Huyou nodded with a smile.
Easy!
Su Yu makes an offer, if the other party doesn’t agree, then he makes an offer to buy it for a reasonable price.
Su Yu saw that he understood and nodded slightly, not saying much more.
He still had to make a few arrangements!
(The following content is available on the next page.)
“Xia Huyou, many people know he has a good relationship with me, which is actually inappropriate. If I really lose, I’ll go find Lin Yao!”
Su Yu glanced at Lin Yao, who had already left. Finding him would be great!
Let that guy buy it for me!
Everyone knows that I have a grudge against Lin Yao. Lin Yao is Liu Hong’s student, a member of the single Divine Script lineage. If he goes to buy it… the single Divine Script lineage won’t set up any obstacles, after all, it’s an abandoned will-of-the-text.
“I’m so smart!”
Su Yu praised himself in his heart, feeling somewhat helpless. His willpower is still too low. Otherwise, why bother with these unconventional methods.
Thinking of this, Su Yu looked at Xia Huyou again and said, “Huyou, there are many races in the Ten Thousand Clans. Do you know much about them?”
“Of course!”
Xia Huyou said with a smile, “I’m a businessman, and businessmen are all about being knowledgeable. What’s the matter, is there anything you don’t understand? If it’s not a big secret, it’s all free. I’m generous when it comes to business!”
Su Yu smiled and said, “It’s nothing, I just wanted to ask if there are any races that are born Civilization Masters, able to cultivate willpower from a young age, unlike us who have to reach Soaring Realm before we can cultivate the ‘Ten Thousand Script Sutra’.”
“There really are!”
Xia Huyou nodded and said, “Ordinary people don’t know, because there are very few such races! For example, the Primordial God Clan can actually do it, but the Primordial God Clan is almost all in the Soaring Realm at birth, so it’s useless, similar to us, just with a very high starting point.”
Su Yu frowned and nodded slightly.
“Besides the God Clan, there are also some in the Demon Clan, and the Immortal Clan actually has the most Civilization Masters, and they also have such races, but they all have a high starting point.”
Xia Huyou smiled and said, “You’re probably trying to ask about those who can cultivate willpower in the Thousand Jin or Ten Thousand Stone Realm, right? You even have your eyes on their cultivation methods, right? Many people have had this idea, but unfortunately, even if you get the cultivation methods, they’re not suitable for the Human Race. Otherwise, powerful individuals would have snatched them long ago and improved them.”
Su Yu smiled and nodded. “Actually, the reason I asked this is to see if their blood essence can help improve willpower…”
Xia Huyou’s eyes lit up. “Don’t mention it, it really does help a little bit. Of course, it’s very little! I know a race that can cultivate willpower even before they nurture their nature.”
“What?”
“The Five Elements Clan!”
Xia Huyou said, “The Five Elements Clan are natural Civilization Masters! Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, they can do everything. Wind escape, fire attacks, water submersion, earth escape… all are manifestations of Divine Scripts…”
Xia Huyou smiled and said, “The Five Elements Clan is not numerous, and their strength is not strong at the beginning, but their cultivation speed is still very fast, I’m talking about the early stages, precisely because they have cultivation methods suitable for them. But it’s not suitable for the Human Race, because their structure is completely different, the differences are too great!”
“Five Elements Clan!”
Su Yu muttered to himself. The Water Person is a Civilization Master?
He really didn’t know this!
So, the imprisoned Water Person, Shadow Person, and White Fox are all Civilization Masters?
“Then, is the blood essence of the Five Elements Clan suitable for improving willpower?”
“It has a little effect.”
Xia Huyou said, shaking his head, “It’s not cost-effective! The Five Elements Clan is rare, and the weak Five Elements Clan are even rarer! Even if there is an improvement, it’s only a little bit…”
Saying that, he added, “And even if there are a few drops of blood essence, it’s not very useful. It’s too difficult to get more!”
Su Yu didn’t care too much.
As long as he can open the illustrated book and the cultivation method, he can completely open those temporary acupoints himself. At worst, he’ll spend more other blood essence to open the acupoints.
Directly master the cultivation method!
The most suitable cultivation method for the Human Race!
For example, the “Body Strengthening Art” and other cultivation methods, it’s not that Su Yu can’t learn them, but he just doesn’t have the time to open the acupoints.
If the Demonic Bull blood essence can’t be supplied later, he can also open the acupoints of the “Body Strengthening Art” and then actively cultivate with this method, even without blood essence.
Su Yu thought for a while and said, “Get me some blood essence of the Five Elements Clan, just a small amount. What’s the price?”
“The Five Elements Clan is even rarer than the God Clan. Not to mention whether I can get it, if I do, the price will be high!”
Xia Huyou said seriously, “Su Yu, it’s really not very useful. Of course, if you want to research it, that’s fine. How about this, there are five types of Five Elements Clan, I’ll get you a drop of each type…”
“I want the Ten Thousand Stone Realm ones!”
Su Yu said, “Do you have Ten Thousand Stone ones?”
“I’ll find a way. I can’t guarantee the early to mid stages. Also, the price is really high, after all, the rarity is very high. Even if I give you the cost price, you won’t be able to get it without 50 merit points per drop!”
Su Yu nodded slightly, which was fine.
He only needs one drop to open the illustrated book.
No, he also needs a drop to open the cultivation method, otherwise he won’t be able to know which acupoints need to be opened. Su Yu immediately said, “Give me two drops of each type. 500 merit points, I won’t haggle. Get them to me as soon as possible, how about it?”
“Okay!”
Xia Huyou laughed and quickly said, “By the way, I’ve transferred the Demonic Bull blood essence. They’re all mid-stage Ten Thousand Stone. Do you want the late-stage ones? If you do, there’s also a batch. There are only 200 drops of the mid-stage ones…”

“200 drops, 3000 merit points?”
Su Yu had a headache. Spending money is like water flowing!
But he has to spend it!
If he doesn’t, then he’ll just cultivate slowly.
And after experiencing the joy of rapid progress, it would be hard for Su Yu to slow down.
At this moment, he only has some merit points left.
“I want the 200 drops of mid-stage ones. How many late-stage ones are there? What’s the price?”
“20 points per drop, not too expensive, right?”
Xia Huyou said with a smile, “We’re all brothers, I’m giving you the cost price, the cost price of the Battlefield of the Heavens! I’m not even counting the shipping fee!”
“Thanks!”
Although he believes this guy is a profiteer, the prices of the things Xia Huyou sells to him are indeed not expensive.
“How many late-stage ones are there?”
“100 drops. Someone else wants the rest.”
“Then I’ll take all 300 drops of this Demonic Bull blood essence, a total of 5000 merit points?”
“Correct!”
Su Yu sighed!
5000 merit points, that’s life-threatening.
“Even the ones from late Myriad Stone Realm should still be usable, right?”
“With his strength at the ninth level of Ten Thousand Pounds, a wisp of energy overflow shouldn’t be a big deal.”
Xia Huyou added, “Also, I’ve collected another 20 Willpower Essays for you, worth 2200 merit points. Do you want them?”
“…”
Su Yu’s teeth ached. He nodded, “Yes!”
“That’s 7200 points then!”
Xia Huyou was also delighted and continued, “Last time you asked me to collect those different kinds of essence blood, I’ve managed to gather the remaining 400 types I could find in the past few days. They’re all from the Ten Thousand Pounds Realm, with a few from the Myriad Stone Realm. This isn’t expensive, I’ll charge you 1000 merit points, want them?”
“Yes!”
Su Yu’s heart ached!
8200 points!
It really made his heart twitch!
Xia Huyou was also happy and said in a low voice, “Let’s go, let’s go pick up the goods now! Su Yu, you spent almost everything, right? You got quite a share last time!”
Su Yu was too lazy to reply, his heart aching too much to speak.
After deducting these 8200 points, he only had 2670 merit points left.
He still had to reserve some to buy “A Record of Exploring the Mountains and Seas” and leave some to buy Five Element Race essence blood. As for the one in the confinement area, he was Lingyun, and even if he gave it to Su Yu, he couldn’t use it.
20,000 merit points, spent just like that!
Of course, the items were all here.
For example, the 40 Willpower Essays, all of which were worth a lot.
If Su Yu had no ambition, he could now try to advance to the Myriad Stone Realm.
…………
After collecting the goods from Xia Huyou, Su Yu carefully and stealthily returned to the research center, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.
In the academy, doing these black market deals, you still had to be careful.
Although nothing had happened in the past few days, he still had to be careful of getting caught and losing everything.
300 drops of Mountain-Crushing Bull essence blood, 200 from the mid-Myriad Stone Realm, and 100 drops from the late Myriad Stone Realm. The effects should be much stronger than those from the early stage.
He also got 20 more Willpower Essays, and 400 other kinds of essence blood.
Su Yu wasn’t in a hurry to use them now, otherwise, his Yuan Qi would be mixed up again.
“Actually, I still need to buy some Bright Light Bird essence blood, otherwise, the next time I absorb so much essence blood, it will cause Yuan Qi to be mixed up again. Next time I enter the secret realm, I have to bring Bright Light Bird essence blood with me, which can save a lot of time.”
Su Yu wasn’t planning to use these essence bloods now; he was preparing them for his next entry into the secret realm.
Also, he wanted to get the Heaven-Tier martial skill and go in to cultivate.
The next time he opened, he would either open the acupoints for the Heaven-Tier martial skill or the acupoints for the Five Element Race cultivation method.
The Five Element Race essence blood hadn’t arrived yet, so he wasn’t in a hurry for that.
2670 merit points!
The more Su Yu thought about it, the more his heart ached!
Spending money like water, in the blink of an eye, he spent over 10,000 merit points. As a Ten Thousand Pounds Realm cultivator, he was almost consuming as much as a Mountain and Sea Realm cultivator.
Of course, with money spent, there were also results.
Fast speed!
In just one month, he went from the ninth level of Origin Opening to the ninth level of Ten Thousand Pounds, incredibly fast.
“Equivalent to throwing 1 billion in!”
Su Yu sighed!
A spendthrift!
He didn’t know if it was worth it.
If he only cultivated his physical body and not Willpower Essays, the consumption would probably be much less, perhaps half, but unfortunately, he was cultivating both and wanted to improve quickly, so he had to spend money.
…………
That night, Su Yu still maintained a high-intensity cultivation.
But he went to bed relatively early to prepare for the Divine Literature Competition the next day.
As for the monthly exam, that didn’t matter; he just needed to avoid being in the bottom ten.
…………
September 30th.
The weather was great, the sun was shining brightly.
Su Yu walked out of the research center. Today’s Divine Literature Competition wasn’t being held in the teaching area, but in the secret realm area.
Because the small secret realm used for the competition was in this area.
In the secret realm area, besides those small houses, there were also some larger buildings. The smaller the house, the stronger the secret realm, having completely integrated into space and not needing too many buildings to contain it.
The larger the house, the weaker the secret realm, taking up more space.
Secret Realm Palace.
This was where the Divine Literature Competition was being held. Today, not only the teachers from the Divine Literature Academy were here, but also instructors and researchers had arrived in the main hall before the students.
Divine Literature Academy, Divine Elixir Academy, Weapon Forging Academy, Beast Taming Academy…
People from various academies had arrived today.
Although there weren’t many students from other academies, adding them all together, they were about the same as the Divine Literature Academy. Some academies only had a few people in their advanced classes, but these researchers rarely had such a lively event to watch, so they all came.
Currently, a researcher from the Willpower Academy joked with a smile, “Liu Hong, why haven’t we seen Lingyun from your Divine Literature Academy? He actually let you host the Divine Literature Competition. Did he find a treasure and run off to dig it up?”
Liu Hong chuckled, “It’s not an important competition; it’s just for the freshmen to have fun. There’s no need to take it too seriously.”
“Is that so?” The person speaking said with a smile, “I heard that Elder Hong has a grand-disciple here. You’re using ‘A Record of Exploring the Mountains and Seas’ as bait; aren’t you feeling a bit restless?”
Liu Hong smiled, “It’s just a normal reward; there aren’t so many twists and turns! Although the Willpower Essays left by the Mountain and Sea Realm cultivators have exhausted their willpower, they are still treasures, aren’t they?”
This person wanted to tease him a few more times, but at this moment, a person stepped into the main hall.
Liu Hong was slightly stunned when he saw who it was. Why was she here?
Not only Liu Hong was surprised, but the few Lingyun Realm experts who hadn’t spoken much were also somewhat astonished.
Over at the Divine Elixir Academy, a middle-aged woman said in surprise, “Junior Sister Wu, why did you come?”
Wu Qi’s expression was calm, and she nodded slightly, “My younger sister will participate in the competition. I came to take a look!”
After speaking, she looked at Liu Hong and said indifferently, “Are you hosting this competition?”
Liu Hong coughed lightly and nodded.
“The formal researcher review is about to begin. Don’t waste your time on these things all day long!”Wu Qi said indifferently, “Didn’t you say you’d suppress Bai Feng’s students and disqualify him from advancing? I heard that Bai Feng’s student ranked first in the last monthly exam, so you’re just wasting time!”
Liu Hong was speechless. With so many people around, was it appropriate to say that?
Wu Qi didn’t care about him or whether others heard, and sat down directly. Seeing Liu Hong looking at her, she said indifferently, “What are you looking at me for? Bai Feng hasn’t caused you any trouble, has he?”
They had agreed that if Bai Feng caused him trouble, she would help him block Bai Feng. As for the rest… it was none of her business.
She had observed Liu Hong’s divine script for a while, and the price was Bai Feng’s attack on him, which she would deal with.
“Not yet…”
Liu Hong said, somewhat helplessly. Why did he feel like he was a subordinate?
This woman was becoming more and more domineering!
Nearby, everyone ignored their words, pretending they hadn’t heard. Soon, someone laughed and said, “Wu Qi, I heard that Xia Yuwen has already broken through to Lingyun and will soon return from the Battlefield of the Heavens. You’ll be there soon too, right?”
Wu Qi said calmly, “Not yet, about half a year. I’ll be going to the Battlefield of the Heavens in a while.”
After speaking, she added, “Why didn’t the Divine Script Competition allow students from all races to participate? I actually wanted to see how the students from all races would perform.”
Liu Hong said, “The strength of the students from all races varies. Some are almost in the Tengkong realm…”
“But they’re not in the Tengkong realm yet, are they?”
Wu Qi didn’t think much of it and didn’t say anything else, closing her eyes and ignoring everyone.
Liu Hong was helpless. This woman’s arrival made him feel uncomfortable.
…
Outside the secret realm.
Su Yu and the other advanced class students arrived one after another.
As Su Yu was about to enter, someone whispered from behind, “Su Yu!”
Su Yu turned his head and saw a familiar face. He said in surprise, “Liu Ke, you’re here too?”
She was one of the female students who enrolled at the beginning of the semester. She was short and timid. Did she also want to participate in the Divine Script Competition?
Liu Ke whispered, “Yes, our Divine Pill Academy is also participating. There aren’t many of us to begin with, so we have to come.”
As she spoke, Liu Ke curiously glanced at him, “Su Yu, I heard that you defeated Chen Qi last time. People say you’re very strong now!”
“Not really.”
Su Yu laughed, “It was just a friendly exchange, and there was external help involved, so it’s not accurate.”
“It’s amazing to reach the Thousand Jun realm. I’m only at the eighth level of Kaiyuan now.”
Liu Ke said softly. She had only been at the sixth level of Kaiyuan when she enrolled, and now she was at the eighth level. Two months wasn’t slow.
But compared to Su Yu, it was really slow.
As they were chatting, Wu Lan strode over, looked at Su Yu, and said smugly, “Su Yu, I hope we can meet later. I’ll defeat you!”
With that, she turned and left!
Liu Ke looked at her strangely. After a long while, she whispered, “She… didn’t see me?”
Seriously, the feeling Wu Lan gave her just now was that she didn’t see her at all!
Was her eyesight bad?
If she hadn’t stepped aside, she would have been stepped on.
Su Yu shrugged, “Don’t be sad. In her eyes, everyone who enrolled below the top tier is transparent and doesn’t exist. It’s the same in our class, you’re not the only one.”
Liu Ke was speechless.
There was such a person… How interesting!
Su Yu was also amused. It was good that she didn’t point her nostrils at you… No, Liu Ke was very short, so she probably saw her nostrils.
Thinking of this, Su Yu gossiped in a low voice, “She has a nickname in our class, ‘Nostril Person’. You can secretly call her that next time!”
Liu Ke instantly moved away from Su Yu, looking wary and disgusted. He was too bad, actually giving a girl such a nickname!
He was definitely not a good person!
Liu Ke ran away quickly. Su Yu was confused. What was wrong?
It wasn’t me who gave her the nickname!
It seemed to have spread from Jia Mingzhen. Jia Mingzhen called her Nostril Person!
“Sure enough, women are all inexplicable!”
Su Yu muttered. The teacher was right. Women were really an obstacle to cultivation. Look, I was communicating with you nicely, and you ran away inexplicably, without even saying goodbye. So rude!
As soon as he finished muttering, a cold snort came from the side!
Xia Chan looked displeased!
She strode away, not even looking at Su Yu.
Su Yu looked aggrieved. Inexplicably, why were you snorting at me? Did I offend you?
What’s wrong!
It was early in the morning, and I didn’t do anything. Why did I feel like I had offended three women at once!
