Chapter 173: Just Have To! | Wan Zu Zhi Jie [Trans]
Wan Zu Zhi Jie [Trans] - Updated on March 20, 2025
When Su Yu found Xia Huyou, Xia Huyou had just gotten up and was still a little dazed.
It was too late!
It was almost 4 in the morning.
Xia Huyou was still half asleep, but Su Yu was wide awake.
He was about to speak when he suddenly felt a jolt!
What did he see?
A faint mist surrounded Xia Huyou and was slowly absorbed by him. Soon, the faint mist disappeared.
“Divine Aperture opened!”
Su Yu had just opened 20 divine apertures himself, so he knew this state very well. The faint mist was obviously something he had just picked up.
Soaring?
Su Yu was shocked!
Was Xia Huyou a Soaring cultivator?
Something wasn’t right!
If he was Soaring, his willpower would be full and materialized, and his willpower would enter the second level, which would be somewhat different.
Unless Xia Huyou was too strong and concealed his strength so others couldn’t see it.
If he wasn’t Soaring, then… this guy had opened his divine apertures and had a cultivation technique for the Nourishing Spirit stage!
Su Yu was surprised. Wasn’t it said that there were no cultivation techniques below the Nourishing Spirit stage?
Or… were there, but they were monopolized by some large families?
So Xia Huyou knew it because he was an important figure in the Xia family?
“Su Yu, you could have told me whatever it is in the morning!”
Xia Huyou yawned, feeling sleepy. Did Su Yu never sleep?
As for the little bit of weak willpower he absorbed when he got up, he didn’t pay much attention to it. Su Yu wasn’t Soaring, so he wouldn’t notice anything. It was just a little, and he would absorb it quickly. Even a Soaring cultivator wouldn’t notice it if they weren’t paying attention.
Su Yu remained calm and smiled, “There are too many things to do, sorry to trouble you! Huyou, let me ask you something. Do you have any basic cultivation techniques for sale here? I mean, cultivation techniques for cultivating divine apertures in the Nourishing Spirit stage.”
“No!”
Xia Huyou said directly, “How could there be such a thing for sale…”
Su Yu interrupted, “Does that mean such a thing exists?”
Su Yu whispered, “You know a lot. Tell me, in the Human Realm, does such a cultivation technique really exist?”
Xia Huyou scratched his head and smiled innocently, “There definitely is, but it’s usually a secret! There are so many invincible experts, someone must have deduced some basic cultivation techniques suitable for us…”
“Then since they were deduced by the invincible, why aren’t they spread like basic Yuan cultivation techniques?”
“It’s different!”
Xia Huyou shook his head, “Let me put it this way, warriors can be anyone! Civilization Masters can only be that small group of people! And that small group of people are actually at the top of society. Those who study to be Civilization Masters are either from large families or have a Civilization Master family heritage. There are also self-taught people, but the proportion is very small!”
“Even if basic cultivation techniques are created, the common people will still not be able to obtain them, learn them, or have the conditions to learn them. So in the end, they will still fall into the hands of those large families.”
Xia Huyou became more awake and continued, “In this way, the solidification of the Civilization Master class will be even more serious! Not spreading it may not be a bad thing! Of course, there are also selfish reasons. Civilization Master families all hope that their Civilization Masters are stronger, just like some warrior families, the techniques they create will not be passed on to outsiders.”
Xia Huyou smiled, “It’s impossible for all techniques to be passed on to outsiders. It’s the same for any race. The powerful races like the Gods and Demons will not pass on some of their powerful techniques to ordinary Gods and Demons.”
Su Yu nodded slightly, “So that means such a cultivation technique really exists, right?”
“Probably!”
Xia Huyou gave a vague answer.
Su Yu thought for a while and said, “What if such a technique was spread?”
Xia Huyou thought for a while and said, “Then the number of Civilization Masters will increase in the future, and the competition for resources will be more difficult. There won’t be enough willpower texts. Of course, those are the disadvantages. There are also advantages. Civilization Masters will advance to Soaring faster, form combat power faster, and save some time for advancing to higher levels in the future.”
After saying that, he smiled, “Su Yu, no one sells this kind of thing, so don’t even think about it. And even if the Human Realm has it, I’m afraid there won’t be many. Generally, even members of the same family may not be fully taught.”
Xia Huyou shook his head, “Let me tell you this, it’s impossible to share everything publicly right now, unless one day, the Human Race really reaches a dead end and has to unite to resist all the races, with everyone united, facing a desperate situation. At that time, techniques and whatnot probably won’t matter anymore.”
“But now, the Human Race is still one of the strong races. Although the situation is not too good, they still win more than they lose on the battlefield. At this time, it’s unrealistic to expect techniques to be spread arbitrarily.”
“Is the situation good?”
Su Yu said indifferently, “If the situation was good, the Demon Suppression Army wouldn’t have issued veteran recall orders several times in a row, and my father wouldn’t be returning to the battlefield at the age of almost fifty!”
Xia Huyou was slightly embarrassed and cleared his throat, “The Demon Suppression Army’s situation is a bit different, this… mainly because the Great Xia Prefecture has fought too many battles in recent years. Many major battles have broken out. You know, the Great Xia Prefecture is warlike, I… Prefecture Lord Xia has an intense personality, can’t stand being wronged, and is unwilling to compromise. As long as someone provokes him, he will definitely send troops, which has led to heavy losses for the Demon Suppression Army and forced them to recruit soldiers to replenish their ranks.”
Su Yu fell into deep thought and said, “So, the losses in other prefectures are actually not that great?”
“Not great!”
Xia Huyou shook his head, “Other prefectures also have battles, but strictly speaking, the races they are fighting against are not very powerful. Only my Great Xia Prefecture faces mostly powerful God and Demon races!”
“Why?”
Xia Huyou sighed, “Why else? It has something to do with Great Xia King’s personality. He’s the kind of person who dares to do what you don’t dare to do! You don’t dare to garrison here, but I insist on garrisoning here! You don’t dare to start a conflict, but I insist on fighting back… Several generations of Prefecture Lords in the Xia family have had this personality, so the battle lines have become longer and longer, extending deep into the battlefield, and naturally encountering more powerful races.”
“Don’t the other Invincibles care?”
“They care, but Invincibles only care about wars at their level. They won’t interfere too much in the wars below.”
Xia Huyou saw his confusion and added, “Of course, more battles don’t necessarily mean it’s bad. At least we encounter more battles, and the probability of producing strong individuals is higher. The Great Xia Prefecture has some elements of ‘raising gu’…”
He didn’t hide anything and said directly, “Survival of the fittest! The Great Xia Prefecture has the highest probability of producing strong individuals in the Heavens Battlefield! The overall strength of the Great Xia Prefecture is actually top-notch! Among the 36 prefectures of the Human Realm, the Great Xia Prefecture has consistently ranked among the top three!”
“36 prefectures of the Human Realm?”
Su Yu frowned and said, “Why 36 prefectures? The books say 38 prefectures of the Human Realm.”
Xia Huyou scratched his head and said, “I’m talking about the major prefectures, not the minor ones. There are two minor prefectures in the Human Realm. The books don’t go into much detail. One of them is the Heavens Prefecture, which is the area where the Human Realm and the Heavens Battlefield channel are located.”
“The other is the Twin Saints Prefecture, which is also the core of the human race, where the two major sacred grounds are located! The Hall of War Gods and the Seeking Realm are both in that area.”
Su Yu nodded, annoyed, “I know that. I thought you didn’t include these two prefectures. I was wondering, is our Great Xia Prefecture that strong? Second only to the Twin Saints Prefecture…”
“There’s not much difference!”
Xia Huyou shrugged and said, “Putting aside everything else, the Great Xia Prefecture’s combat power and the number of strong individuals are among the highest! Another one is the Great Zhou Prefecture, an old and powerful prefecture. They plunder more resources from the Heavens Battlefield than we do, so there are also many strong individuals.”
“Who else is in the top three besides Great Xia and Great Zhou Prefecture?”
“Great Qin Prefecture!”
Xia Huyou said directly, “They are also strong. The Great Qin King’s combat power is top-tier even among the Invincible!”
Su Yu thought for a moment and said, “So, the two major sacred grounds have a total of 36 Invincible Realm individuals?”
“I don’t know about that.”
Xia Huyou smiled and said, “No one knows that except for the Invincible! First, some may have fallen, but it may not be known. Some may have newly advanced to Invincible, but it may not be known either. Also, not all Invincible will establish major prefectures…”
Xia Huyou smiled and said, “You should know from history that the reason for establishing major prefectures more than 300 years ago was because there was no other choice. Some strong individuals from the myriad races broke into the Human Realm and created chaos everywhere. Some Invincible had no choice but to stand up and establish major prefectures to protect the peace of one side.”
Su Yu nodded slightly. He knew this part of history.
Of course, the books were too general.
In fact, many questions were not explained clearly.
For example, how did those Invincible advance more than 300 years ago, where did they come from, where did they study, were there any strong individuals before the Human Realm?
In short, it was all very vague.
When it came to these Invincible combat powers, the books were all vague.
Su Yu didn’t ask further. He had a general understanding of some things. At the moment, he was also guessing that this guy…might really be Xia Longwu’s son.
What a pity!
Xia Longwu, the person Su Yu admired the most in the past. He appeared on TV, and he was incredibly majestic. With a single order, heads would roll.
He was the existence who killed the Myriad Races Cult and prevented them from showing their faces in the Great Xia Prefecture!
Such a strong individual, such a majestic king, his son…like this?
Hard to believe!
Of course, Su Yu wouldn’t expose him. He was about 80% sure, so knowing was enough. If he exposed him, this guy would be considered the crown prince of the Great Xia Prefecture. Would he have to salute him every time he saw him?
“Enough about that. I still have 4000 merit points with you from last time, right? I asked you to help me purchase some essence blood. Did you purchase it?”
“I bought some. I got you 100 drops of Mountain Shattering Bull essence blood at the late Ten Thousand Stone Realm for 2000 merit points. I got you 500 drops of Soul Eating Worm essence blood at the Thousand Pound Realm for 1500 merit points. And with the remaining 500 merit points, I got you 10 drops of Five Elements Race essence blood, from the Fire Spirit Race.”
That’s all spent!
Su Yu was helpless. This guy was really efficient!
He calculated so accurately that he spent it all at once!
Not a point more, not a point less!
“Did the Mountain Shattering Bull on the front lines not rebel?”
Xia Huyou laughed and said, “What are you thinking! It’s just some essence blood, not that many were killed. The Mountain Shattering Bull is just one of the top 100 races, don’t overestimate them too much. We humans are still one of the top 10 races! Don’t a large number of people die every year? The lives of the Mountain Shattering Bull are not worth more than the lives of the human race.”
“Of course, the number of Mountain Shattering Bull is not too large, and they start at the Thousand Pound Realm, which is stronger than the human race. Humans have to go through the Opening Origin Realm, and many strong races don’t have this stage.”
Su Yu didn’t say anything more about this, but the merit points he got from the last dividend were used up.
After thinking about it, he said again, “My teacher told me before that when I reach the Soaring Realm and cultivate the 《Ten Thousand Writings Sutra》, I can open the divine acupoints, but absorbing willpower will cause the divine acupoints to be filled with some chaotic willpower, just like the Yuan acupoints. You’ve seen a lot, do you know how to eliminate these chaotic willpower?”
“You’ve really asked the right person!”
Xia Huyou laughed and said, “There’s more than one way to solve this chaotic willpower, there are many.”
“First, pills! The Divine Pill system has a kind of pill that can eliminate these chaotic willpower, called the Spirit Condensing Pill. It’s divided into levels. The second-order Spirit Condensing Pill corresponds to the Soaring Realm. However, the price is very high, 100 merit points per pill. The effect… is okay. One pill can purify three to five divine acupoints.”
“Second, divine talismans! The Divine Talisman system has a kind of purification divine talisman, which is disposable and can be used to cleanse the divine acupoints. The price is about the same as the Spirit Condensing Pill.”
“Third, constantly use willpower with extremely high purity to wash away impurities.”
“Fourth, there are several rare natural treasures that can solve this problem.”
“Fifth, cultivation methods…”
“Cultivation methods?”
Su Yu was more concerned about this and asked, “Are there cultivation methods that can solve this problem?”
“Yes!”
Xia Huyou thought for a moment and said, “Of course, I don’t have this kind of cultivation method, and I can’t buy it, but some people do. It is rumored that the Great Ming King has this kind of cultivation method, used to purify willpower. The Zhu family of the Great Ming Prefecture should all have this kind of cultivation method inheritance, so their line of civilization masters has relatively pure divine acupoints.”
“Forget it, Great Ming King…” Su Yu was speechless.
The invincible family’s cultivation methods would obviously not be casually spread.
“Then are there such methods among the myriad races?”
“There should be, but I’m not sure of the specifics. However, some races that specialize in willpower may have them. I don’t know if the Five Elements Clan has any…”
Su Yu also didn’t know.
He only knew the Five Elements Clan’s talent skills and basic written formulas, which didn’t mean he knew all their cultivation methods.
What was unlocked by essence blood only included basic written formulas and talent skills, not their extra cultivation methods and martial skills. If it were that way, it would be too terrifying.
Su Yu didn’t ask further. He would check it out himself later, or ask Bai Feng.
This wasn’t urgent. Although there was more impure willpower in his divine acupoints, he didn’t plan to advance at the moment, so he didn’t need to worry too much about impurities affecting his future.
He currently had 5000 merit points left, or rather, 5000 plus, and he had 300 plus points remaining.
After thinking for a while, Su Yu said, “Hu You, if I want to advance to Ten Thousand Stone Realm, what do you think can help me advance better and faster?”
“You’re preparing to advance to Ten Thousand Stone Realm?”
Xia Hu You was surprised at first, then thought it was natural.
Since Su Yu had reached Thousand Pound Ninth Level, it was only right to want to advance.
“Advancing to Ten Thousand Stone Realm, as you know, is about merging acupoints. But merging at least 10 acupoints is considered a true Ten Thousand Stone Realm cultivator. The number of acupoints merged greatly affects combat strength!”
“It’s best to merge all the acupoints of the first level. For example, if the ‘War God Technique’ has 12 acupoints on the first level, it’s best to merge them all. That way, when you attack, the acupoint essence will converge, making it smooth and easy to use, without any stagnation or unsmooth operation.”
Xia Hu You said a few words, but didn’t say much more. Su Yu should understand these things himself. Xia Hu You thought for a moment and said, “The best auxiliary item for advancing to Ten Thousand Stone Realm should be the Glass Fruit!”
“Grass?”
Su Yu thought for a moment, but hadn’t heard of it. Compared to these children of large families, he was still lacking in experience. As for book knowledge… Su Yu couldn’t possibly be proficient in everything.
“Yes! A fruit that, after consumption, can make your body like glass, completely transparent. At this time, some qualitative changes, or solidification, will occur in the acupoints. Merging acupoints at this time will have the least amount of repulsion!”
“Least amount of repulsion…”
Su Yu pondered, slowly saying, “When merging acupoints, the acupoints repel each other. Then, if I use a divine rune instead of the Glass Fruit to solidify them or use other methods to weaken the repulsion, would that also work?”
“It’s possible!”
Xia Hu You nodded and said, “If you have a suitable divine rune, of course it’s possible. The key is that you may not have such a divine rune.”
“Understood!”
Su Yu didn’t say much more. He looked at the sky. It was almost dawn, and he said, “Leave the things here with you for now. Send them to the entrance of the Wen Tan Research Center later. There are too many people watching me recently, so I don’t want to be robbed halfway!”
“Alright!”
Xia Hu You nodded, feeling good. He had made another deal.
Moreover, Su Yu still had a lot of merit points on hand, so he could do business again next time.
“All Koku…”
After Su Yu left, Xia Hu You muttered.
This guy, a Civilization Master, cultivates his physical body like a warrior. He’s not afraid of delaying his willpower cultivation.
…………
Su Yu slowly wandered through the academy in the morning.
Xia Hu You is most likely Xia Longwu’s son. Otherwise, how could he have the Yang Xing Written Formula? Of course, it’s possible that the guy is a soaring expert, in which case, Su Yu couldn’t say anything.
But to be a soaring expert at such a young age… If he’s such a monster, then he’s very likely to be Xia Longwu’s son.
“Sure enough, people from big families are good at disguising themselves.”
Xia Hu You’s willpower is definitely more than he shows!
Su Yu couldn’t judge what his true strength was like. Maybe he was even stronger than Wan Mingze, or even… Su Yu might not really be able to beat him for sure.
“Everyone’s hiding things, what are they doing!”
Su Yu complained in his heart. There were a few other people in the class who were also mysterious, making it impossible to know how strong they really were. They didn’t even make the rankings, just hiding like that. He didn’t know what for.
But when he thought of himself, never mind, he was also hiding a lot of things.
For example, he hadn’t told anyone about the 20 divine acupoints he had opened.
After wandering around the academy for a while, Su Yu headed to Zhao Li’s research institute when it was completely bright.
…………
“A rare guest!”
When he saw Su Yu, Zhao Li joked with a smile.
Su Yu was a little embarrassed. He only came when he had something to do, and usually didn’t come. This so-called auxiliary cultivation was now even skipping the basic classes more often.
“Teacher, I…”
“It’s alright!”
Zhao Li really didn’t care much, and said with a smile, “If you could still come to the weapon forging class, then I would have to admire you! You have to cultivate, outline divine runes, and improve your willpower… In such a short time, you also have to make the top 100 list. And it’s only been two months since you enrolled!”

He really didn’t care much. Su Yu was very, very busy. Everyone could understand that.
Especially since Su Yu was also involved in some research projects, he had already shocked a lot of people by being able to cultivate to this level.
If he could still come for auxiliary weapon forging at this time, then Su Yu would be a god!
Su Yu was extremely embarrassed. Zhao Li didn’t care and casually closed the door of the research institute’s courtyard. He walked along, saying, “Speak, what is it? Are you reforging your civilized weapon? There’s no need to rush. You probably haven’t outlined many divine runes yet, right? You just reforged it last time. Come find me again when you’ve exceeded 10 divine runes.”
“Teacher…”
Su Yu hesitated for a moment, but still said, “Teacher, I came to ask you if there’s any way to enter the Essence Qi Secret Realm directly without accumulating merit points?”
“Aren’t you already enough?”
Zhao Li said in surprise, “You’ve accumulated enough merit points, I know that! Could it be… you want to go in for free?”
Su Yu smiled innocently, “If I can go in for free, that would naturally be the best!”
“You…”
Zhao Li was speechless, then chuckled, and after thinking for a moment, said, “You probably know the situation, right? Let me tell you, my father, he was the fourth generation head of the academy, and he left that divine script. Actually, I haven’t bothered with it because he used the academy’s resources to become strong. He represents the Great Xia Civilization Academy… Of course, strictly speaking, the Secret Realm should belong to me. Otherwise, some invincible families would be looking for trouble with me. What’s the point of becoming strong if powerful families don’t enjoy the benefits of the strong?”
Zhao Li wasn’t too concerned about what others did and continued, “100 merit points for one entry isn’t actually that much because maintaining the Secret Realm requires costs. The academy has some income, but it’s actually not much, very little!”
Su Yu nodded and whispered, “Teacher, it doesn’t matter if it’s not free. My idea is to send a few of my friends in to cultivate. I can pay the money, but they don’t have enough merit points accumulated. You know, it’s too hard to accumulate merit points before reaching the Soaring realm.”
“You kid don’t find it hard!”
Zhao Li laughed and said, “Alright, pay 100 merit points. This is to keep the Secret Realm running for a long time. If you pay enough money, I can open a back door for accumulating merit points…”
As he spoke, he rummaged around on his broken sofa. After a while, he pulled out a dark, lacquered plaque. “Use this, you can bring people in! The ones guarding the Secret Realm are Xiao Huang and Xiao Nie, they know the situation…”
Xiao Huang… Xiao Nie!
Su Yu found it extremely awkward to hear. Xiao Nie was alright, but Xiao Huang… I remember… my neighbor’s dog is called that.
“Thank you, Teacher!”
Su Yu didn’t think too much about it and quickly took it, looking delighted.
This thing is good!
He can bring people in. Although he still has to pay, at least it avoids a lot of trouble. Counting on Hu Zongqi, Lin Yao, and others to accumulate merit points themselves, they can’t get into the top ten in the monthly exam, can’t get into the top 100, and can’t do missions… it’ll be a long time!
The plaque felt a little cool to the touch, and there wasn’t much else on it, just a hammer and the character “Zhao.”
Su Yu was overjoyed and hurriedly said, “Teacher, I’m causing you trouble! By the way, the last time you hammered me a few times, I found my willpower had become much stronger. When I tested it, I found my willpower had reached the peak of the first stage.”
“Peak of the first stage?”
Zhao Li thought for a moment and nodded. “Not bad! But my few hammer blows didn’t have that much effect. It’s related to you yourself. Your willpower already had some meaning of being tempered, I just made it more condensed.”
“Teacher, is that the effect of the Divine Expansion Technique?”
“Mm.”
Zhao Li wasn’t surprised that Su Yu knew this. If he didn’t know by now, Su Yu would be a fool.
He smiled and said, “Do you regret it now? If you had majored in the Casting Weaponry Department, I would have taught you the Divine Expansion Technique. Now you can only passively enjoy the benefits of a few hammer blows. You should know that after cultivation, a big hammer will automatically form in your sea of will, constantly tempering your sea of will!”
Su Yu looked at him strangely, so… Teacher Zhao gets hammered every day?
Zhao Li was speechless after being looked at like that and said with a faint smile, “What are you looking at? A thousand tempers, that is the real sea of will! Even the mountains and seas can’t shatter my sea of will, that’s the benefit of the Divine Expansion Technique!”
“Willpower is divided into levels, Nourishing Nature is the first level, Soaring is the second level, Ascending Cloud is the third level, Mountains and Seas is the fourth level, Sun and Moon is the fifth level… Currently, the highest is only the peak of the fifth level! Although I am Ascending Cloud, my willpower has already reached the fourth level!”
Su Yu was surprised and said, “Then why isn’t Teacher Mountains and Seas?”
“Mountains and Seas…”
Zhao Li thought for a moment, shook his head, and sighed, “You’ve been enrolled for so long, you should know some things. Advancement requires willpower, divine scripts, and divine apertures to reach that standard. I failed to cast a earth-grade mystical weapon back then, which caused my main divine script to fail to advance! My main divine script is currently only at the peak of the third level, failing to reach the fourth level, and… in order to step into the Mountains and Seas realm in one fell swoop, I fused the main divine script into that mystical weapon. Now that the mystical weapon is ruined, my life… Mountains and Seas is hopeless!”
Actually, there is still some hope, but not much.
He wasn’t too concerned about it anymore. He was a little disappointed in previous years, but now, it depends on luck.
Maybe one day that mystical weapon will completely advance, and his main divine script can also successfully advance, stepping into the Mountains and Seas realm in one fell swoop!
Only now did Su Yu understand why Zhao Li failed to enter the Mountains and Seas!
What great courage!
He actually integrated the main divine script into the mystical weapon. No wonder, no wonder he’s 120 years old… cough cough, no wonder he failed to advance.

“Teacher, then why aren’t you Ascending Cloud ninth level?”
Zhao Li casually said, “It’s caused by the Divine Expansion Technique. Originally, I was, but later I failed to advance successfully. The sea of will couldn’t expand. My Divine Expansion Technique kept tempering me, compressing my willpower. Over time, it didn’t fill the current sea of will, and it dropped to the Ascending Cloud seventh level.”
Su Yu now completely understood!
It turned out that this person was at Ascending Cloud ninth level before!
As a result, he failed to enter the Mountains and Seas realm, and the hammer kept hammering his willpower. Under compression, it dropped to the Ascending Cloud seventh level instead.
“Then… will you continue to drop?”
“No!”
Zhao Li smiled and said, “There is always a limit. If I compress it further, my willpower will solidify. Compressing it to the Ascending Cloud seventh level has reached the extreme.”
Su Yu was really curious now, “If you compress it so much, once you enter the Mountains and Seas, wouldn’t you instantly become a strong person in the Mountains and Seas?”
“Not necessarily…”
Zhao Li said with a smile, “But purely comparing strength, if I reach the Mountains and Seas, ordinary Mountains and Seas third level may not be my opponent. As for the mid stage of Mountains and Seas, that is another level.”
“Teacher, what exactly went wrong with your mystical weapon? Why did it fail?”
Seeing that Zhao Li was in a good mood today, Su Yu couldn’t help but ask a few more questions.
Zhao Li fell into reminiscence, and after a long while, he said, “Back then, when I was forging it, I lacked some stamina. Logically speaking, a Tier 4 Wen Weapon should have 73 golden纹 (紋) to be considered a Tier 4 Wen Weapon… Actually, I could have forged them, but I was ambitious and greedy, thinking I could forge even more golden纹!”
Zhao Li shook his head and sighed, “But I was too arrogant. I used the best materials, preparing for it to advance to a Tier 3 Wen Weapon in the future! Engraving golden纹 was even harder. Plus, integrating my main divine text into it created some resistance, making it even more difficult. When I forged 72 golden纹, I couldn’t hold on anymore. Trying to forge the 73rd golden纹 resulted in failure. The Wen Weapon failed to advance, and instead, because the materials were too strong, my main divine text was trapped inside…”
Zhao Li exhaled, “Now, the only way is to shatter this Wen Weapon. But once shattered, my main divine text will also be severely damaged, and I can’t bear to do it. So, I’ll just leave it like this, nurturing it day by day, hoping that one day I’ll get lucky and it will advance on its own.”
“…”
Su Yu scratched his head, “Teacher, can’t you recast the Wen Weapon?”
“I can!”
Zhao Li glanced at him, “But my strength now is even weaker than it was back then. Recasting golden纹, you saw it last time, is even harder! Unless someone assists me in recasting. There’s a guy in Great Xia Mansion who has that ability…”
“That Tier 5 Weaponsmith?”
Zhao Li curled his lip, “That’s him! But I can’t be bothered with him. That guy… has always coveted my main divine text and my Expansion Technique. I’d rather not advance than look for him!”
Zhao Li glanced at him, regretfully, “You kid, you have strong willpower. If you could advance to Lingyun and cultivate my Expansion Technique, and then assist me in recasting, there’s still hope… How about this, the Multi-Divine Text faction is destroyed, so how about you come to me?”
“…”
Su Yu chuckled sheepishly, Teacher, the way you put it, destroyed… how am I supposed to destroy it?
Su Yu scratched his head and said softly, “Teacher, how about… you teach me the Expansion Technique? I’ll cultivate to Lingyun, and then I’ll assist you. I cultivate very quickly, I’ll reach Lingyun very soon!”
Zhao Li stared at him in disbelief!
Damn!
This kid has such thick skin!
Su Yu chuckled dryly, “Teacher, don’t look at me like that, I’m serious, I cultivate really fast!”
“Get out!”
Zhao Li said unhappily, “You’re not even my direct disciple. If I teach it to you, will I even need to accept a closed-door disciple?”
Su Yu said with a smile, “Teacher, I don’t think you’re planning to take a disciple anytime soon, why not just make do with me for now? The Multi-Divine Text faction has been abolished, it’s not legitimate. I actually major in Weaponsmithing, have you forgotten?”
“…”
Zhao Li was in a daze.
Is that so?
Can you say it like that?
That’s right, the Multi-Divine Text faction is gone. The cultivation department Su Yu is registered with at the academy is actually the Weaponsmithing department, not the Multi-Divine Text department. Of course, Su Yu is affiliated with the Divine Text Academy.
Zhao Li scratched his white hair, is that so?
This kid is now a member of the Weaponsmithing department, not the Multi-Divine Text department?
Why does it feel so wrong!
