Lack of talent? I'll buy a year's worth of cultivation for one dollar!

The Skeleton King's massive body was blasted back thousands of feet.

It shattered a large portion of the divine kingdom's barriers.

Su Yu glanced at his right arm.

The wound has completely healed.

Not even a white mark was left.

"Extremely strong defense."

"His recovery ability is abnormal."

Su Yu gave a fair assessment.

At the peak of the Spring Realm, relying on this technique, I am practically an unkillable monster.

The exchange just now.

He single-handedly suppressed the Skeleton King, who was also at the peak of his spring form.

but.

Su Yu frowned slightly.

"Unkillable."

Suppression is not the same as defeat.

It does not equate to killing.

Although the Skeleton King was blasted back and its bronze armor was dented, its essence was not substantially damaged.

He lacked a similarly effective and lethal method that could kill with a single blow.

Although the Eight Desolate Domain Suppressing Force is powerful, its cultivation technique is ultimately only at the Desolate level. It is still a bit lacking when dealing with beings like those at the peak of the Spring Retreat stage who touch upon the eternal rules.

"Anything below springtime will be absolutely crushed."

"At its peak in spring, it can only be suppressed."

Su Yu withdrew his fist.

"If only there were another top-tier method of killing."

"At the peak of spring, one can be invincible."

but.

enough.

With his current strength, he could easily seize the position of a Grand General from the Xuanhuang Dao Court or the Jiuli Witch Tribe.

Su Yu's mind raced.

The Skeleton King transformed into a stream of light and vanished into the Book of the Dead.

The true form of Jianmu disappeared.

The physical body's realm has returned to the normal peak of the other shore.

Su Yu was full of confidence.

The plan to rescue Jianmu is now absolutely well-founded.

Just then.

He thought of a question from before.

Origin.

It was recorded on the broken stone tablet in the Abyss Realm, the Forbidden Land of Origin.

A wooden bridge is needed to trigger the great calamity of creation, so that one can reach the source and achieve true eternity.

"Jianmu".

Su Yu's divine sense, following the causal line, reconnected with the Jianmu tree's true form deep within the desolate wasteland.

How much do you know about the "origin"?

Su Yu's tone was calm.

"What exactly is the Source?"

The voice just fell.

The seed deep within Su Yu's true spirit suddenly froze.

Followed by.

Violent trembling.

An intense, unmasked fear, originating from the depths of his soul, traveled directly into Su Yu's mind along the causal path.

"Don't go!"

Jianmu's voice changed instantly.

Hoarse, mournful.

"Su Yu! Listen to this old man's advice!"

"Whatever you do, whatever you do, don't even think about attacking the 'source'!"

Jianmu's divine sense was fluctuating wildly, as if recalling some indescribable and terrifying scene.

"There……"

"That's a place we absolutely cannot go!"

Su Yu raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Even the Eternal Realm is off-limits?"

"Eternity?"

Jianmu gave a bitter laugh, his voice filled with deep despair.

"In the Hongmeng Realm, Eternity may be the supreme ruler."

"But in the source area..."

"Even the true Eternal Realm is nothing more than a slightly larger ant!"

Jianmu's tone was resolute.

"Back then, I risked the very essence of this ancient divine tree, severing half of its roots, just to barely escape from its source!"

"Why do you think this old man is trapped in this desolate wasteland?"

"If I hadn't suffered irreversible damage to my Great Dao when I fled the Origin Land back then, would those useless people from the Dao Court and the Witch Clan even be worthy of locking me up?!"

Jianmu shook his head repeatedly.

"All I want now is to live safely."

"I never want to go back to that awful place!"

"Su Yu, you absolutely mustn't take this risk!"

Jianmu chickened out.

He was a complete coward.

Su Yu listened quietly to Jianmu's roar.

His eyes were deep and intense.

The Eternal Realm is nothing more than a slightly larger ant?

Even an existence like the Primordial Tree could only flee in panic?

What exactly is hidden in that source land?

Is it a higher-dimensional life form? Or some indescribable source of rules?

Su Yu fell into thought.

but.

He didn't dwell on it for long.

"understood."

Su Yu replied calmly.

The matter of the origin is still too far removed from my own experience.

The primary task now is to rescue the Jianmu tree and obtain the promised opportunities for the future.

"Let's get you out of here first."

Su Yu severed all contact with Jianmu.

He turned around.

His gaze seemed to pierce through the spatial rift, looking towards the direction of the Xuanhuang Dao Court.

Seize power.

He couldn't just walk in with Su Yu's name on his person.

Because they did not know the true strength of the Xuanhuang Dao Court.

If there's some kind of ancient monster, I could be in danger.

Let's play it safe.

and so.

A legitimate identity is required.

We need a springboard.

Su Yu closed his eyes.

In the depths of the true spirit.

The Heavenly Demon Kingdom began to operate with a roar.

Within the endless source of primordial demonic energy, several pitch-black demonic seeds floated.

Those were his hidden agents planted earlier.

Xuanhuang Dao Court.

Seventh defense zone.

Luoyan Peak, home to the Tuoba family.

Tuoba Mountain.

"You're the one."

Su Yu's divine sense followed the causal connection of the Heavenly Demon Seed, ignoring the distance in space, and descended directly!

Su Yu did not disturb him.

It was like flipping through an ancient book, opening up a scroll of Tuoba Shan's recent memories.

Images from his memory flashed rapidly through Su Yu's mind.

soon.

A familiar figure appeared in the frame.

Ye Qingluan.

That subordinate of the Microcosm Realm.

The background of the image is the logistics battalion of the 7th Defense Zone.

Ye Qingluan was cornered in a secluded corner by several managers at the True Formation Realm.

Her face was pale, she bit her lip tightly, and her eyes showed stubbornness, but even more so, the despair of a lowly cultivator.

"Ye Qingluan, two thousand five hundred Primordial Origin Stones."

The head steward spoke in a cold tone.

He took out a contract and waved it in front of Ye Qingluan.

"Interest compoundes, so it must be settled today."

"Otherwise, according to military regulations, you will be sent to the front-line suicide battalion to fill the gaps in the battle formation."

Ye Qingluan's fingers clenched the hem of her clothes.

Two thousand five hundred Primordial Origin Stones.

For a microscopic world, this is an astronomical figure that could break a spine.

She simply couldn't produce it.

Just then.

In the memory, Tuoba Shan's figure appeared.

He walked into the corner, dressed in a brocade robe, his expression calm and composed.

"I've settled her score."

Tuoba Shan didn't waste any words.

He threw a storage bag directly at the manager's chest.

The steward caught the storage bag, scanned it with his divine sense, and his expression changed slightly.

He glanced at Tuoba Shan, knowing that this man was the local tyrant of Luoyan Peak, and his peak cultivation level of the Sea Opening Realm was not something they could afford to mess with.

"The head of the Tuoba family is magnanimous."

The steward put away the contract, then turned and left with his men.

in the corner.

Ye Qingluan was stunned.

She looked at Tuoba Shan, her eyes filled with wariness and incomprehension.

"Why are you helping me?"

She knew very well that she had no connection with the Tuoba family.

Tuoba Shan looked at Ye Qingluan, a hidden sense of awe flashing deep in his eyes.

That was out of respect for Su Yu.

Two thousand source stones are nothing to him, and Ye Qingluan, as Su Yu's subordinate, might be of great use in the future.

But he remained calm and restrained on the surface.

"Entrusted by someone."

Tuoba Shan left behind only these four words.

He turned and left.

He didn't glance at Ye Qingluan again, nor did he explain who that "person" was.

In the space of consciousness.

Upon seeing this scene, a barely perceptible ripple flashed in Su Yu's deep eyes.

Two thousand five hundred Originium.

In the eyes of lower-level cultivators, it was a huge sum of money that could drive people to their deaths.

He composed himself and continued to peruse his memories.

The scene changes.

Yandao Pavilion.

Tuoba Shan went to deliver a batch of supplies.
