I have the best bloodline

The four foxes gazed at the sky, their pupils dilating uncontrollably as if stimulated by something, their azure eyes turning black as they stood frozen in place.

Su Yan felt a sudden darkness before her eyes, followed by a complete loss of consciousness. She collapsed to the ground, her mind filled with images and text that seemed to travel from her left ear to her right ear without lingering.

On the once tranquil lake, Su Yan seemed to hear a soft rustling sound.

Some voices expressed their resentment at the defeat, while others denounced the cruelty of the gods. Deeper voices were filled with indignation at the injustice of heaven and earth.

Su Yan slowly opened his eyes and stood on the calm surface of the lake. He did not use any magic or supernatural power. Just like an ordinary creature, he lay quietly on the water. A layer of pure white light dust floated around him, and it was visibly merging into Su Yan's body.

"."

Su Yan silently sat up, his hands resting on the lake without white crystals. His divine soul power, which had upgraded from spiritual consciousness to divine sense, expanded outwards, and the bustling sounds entered his mind through his divine sense.

The voices existing in Su Yan's mind were not the words of normal conversation among living beings, but rather thoughts, or rather, resentment entrusted to the surface of the water. Not a single voice within them was benevolent; they were all incessantly venting the thoughts of a dying person.

Su Yan seemed to have some understanding of why the gods were dissatisfied with their place of residence, and why they disliked and even loathed the appearance of the Nightmare Suppressors, and pointed to the Little Jade Pool of Yaohuai Mountain, saying that it was a pool of evil water.

The land of Little Jade Pool is buried with a large number of creatures that died suddenly. Their deaths were mysterious and inexplicable. When the sky darkened again, they were all dead.

It could be the aftereffects of the immortals' magic, or it could be a sacrifice that had been planned long ago.

Su Yan was unaware of this. All he knew was that his mind was filled with thoughts carried by the flowing water, constantly flooding into his head. As a result, the once clear and bright lake where Su Yan was sitting was transformed into murky water by his influence, and his longing was clawing and trying to break free.

"Hold your breath and concentrate, gathering all the outward-expanding divine sense back into your sea of ​​consciousness."

Ruonv's figure slowly emerged from the void, raising her hand and placing her head above Su Yan's lowered head, saying:

"The universe creates its own order, and death is a matter of fate. You are just one of the living beings, struggling on this earth. What right do you have to uphold the will of Heaven and grieve for the passing of time?"

After the trial ended, Su Yan's body and soul underwent a strange transformation.

What he couldn't see before, he now sees; there are no secrets within the reach of his divine sense. He has come here and knows all the grudges, hatred, and malice that have accumulated over millennia on this land and lake. His already unstable divine sense has been affected by that malice, unconsciously manifesting the evil thoughts residing in this lake.

Chapter 574 The Thief Who Observes the Sky

"Little fox—"

Upon seeing that Su Yan was showing signs of losing control, the Su Clan Ancestor also fell from the pillar and rushed towards the lake where Su Yan was. However, Ruo Nu arrived at Su Yan's location a step earlier than the Su Clan Ancestor.

"How are you feeling now?" asked the Su family patriarch, inquiring about Su Yan's current condition, whose eyes had regained their clarity.

"I feel... a bit strange." Su Yan looked at the Su Clan Ancestor who slowly raised his hand. A stream of water floated onto Su Yan's fair arm. The clear water turned yellowish-brown as it swirled around his palm, and a viscous texture appeared on its surface. But after the water flowed around the back of Su Yan's hand, it turned orange-gold, as bright as the sun, yet with a metallic feel.

A pool of clear water transformed into streams of various colors in Su Yan's hands.

It was a very strange feeling. Su Yan himself did not understand how he did it. He just felt the water flowing onto his hand, he knew it, and he could change its shape and characteristics with his mind.

In Su Yan's hands, a stream of water transformed into Starlight Divine Water, Sunlight Divine Water, Moonlight Divine Water, and the Eight Fiends Yellow Springs, which Su Yan could only unleash with the aid of a sacrificial knife.

"He has already shed his mortal body?" Upon seeing the methods Su Yan displayed, the Su Clan Ancestor showed a look of amazement on his face and said, "He has only just passed the Heavenly Tribulation of the Integration Stage, and he has already completed the Transformation of Mortals that other cultivators can only achieve after hundreds of years of arduous cultivation."

During the first stage of the Heavenly Tribulation in the Integration Stage, one undergoes a normal tribulation. After successfully passing the tribulation, one's spiritual consciousness transforms into divine thoughts. In this way, one can begin the process of transcending the mortal realm, which means making one's body closer to the natural world and allowing one's body to withstand greater power.

In this way, practitioners of the Inner Alchemy method can enter the stage of awakening their innate supernatural abilities.

During the mortal transformation stage, if one does not provoke the Heavenly Tribulation and increase its power, it usually takes one to three hundred years for a cultivator to complete the accumulation. If one passes through a Heavenly Tribulation with increased power, it takes about twenty to thirty years to complete the accumulation and begin to awaken supernatural powers.

Although spirit stones can be consumed here to accelerate the process, the increase in speed is actually not very fast. The speed of transformation into a mortal is closely related to the cultivator's own divine sense power.

"This is the way of observing the heavens, but it is also theft."

Senior Ruonv leaned against Su Yan and slowly sat down, letting out a long yawn. An extremely strong smell of alcohol accompanied her breath, almost causing Su Yan to faint.

"The world has always deliberately misunderstood the meaning of this saying, confusing the 'theft' in 'theft' with the 'the way' in 'the Way.' The 'the Way of Observing Heaven' in the Inner Alchemy Integration Stage should actually be called 'the Theft of Observing Heaven.'"

"The power you possess now originates from the power you and your two Heaven-Mending Stones stole from the laws of heaven and earth."

Senior Ruonv began to explain things to Su Yan, then tilted her head back and leaned against Su Yan, falling into a deep sleep.

The Mind-Seeking Demon, commonly known in the cultivation world, is called by another name in Ruonv's words: the Stone for Mending the Sky.

The power that Su Yan currently possesses, in elegant terms, is the result of observing the laws of heaven and earth and comprehending them on his own. To put it bluntly, all the so-called awakening of one's true self and innate supernatural abilities by cultivators of the inner alchemy method are actually powers stolen from the laws of heaven and earth.

This applies to all practitioners of internal alchemy.

The essence of the Heavenly Tribulation Trial is not a trial; the more appropriate adjective to describe it is elimination.

Those who survive near-death experiences can receive nourishment from the laws of heaven and earth, and the "Heavenly Thief" is a form of nourishment received by cultivators in the Integration Stage.

The power stolen from the Heavenly Thief is refined into the innate divine ability of the self, thereby constructing the universe. Based on the universe, the practitioner interferes with the operation of the world, thereby continuing to improve themselves and completely transcending reincarnation. The ultimate goal for the practitioners of the Inner Alchemy method is to be on par with Youchao.

………………

Two days passed slowly.

Su Yan has gradually begun to get used to her body, which has become very unfamiliar.

Unlike other internal alchemy cultivators, he did not undergo any transformation. Because of the potential and talent that Su Yan displayed in the Heavenly Punishment Trial Grounds, and his feat of re-entering the Six-Eyed Lightning into his mother's womb, Su Yan leaped directly from the initial stage of the Integration Realm to the stage of completing the Transformation Realm and awakening his innate divine power.

In Su Yan's eyes, not only himself, but the world itself had become somewhat unfamiliar.

Without deliberately suppressing his divine sense, Su Yan could hear a lot of evil words in the water, which were all dying murmurs.

The vast majority of them were grievances or cursing the enemies who killed them. There was not much information worth paying attention to. Unless Su Yan had a clear goal in his heart and knew what he wanted, he could not use his divine sense to eliminate the delirium and obtain the information he wanted.

Over the course of two days, Su Yan not only familiarized himself with his now unfamiliar body, but also stayed by Ruonv's side, waiting for her to sober up.

"Fox, come here."

One day, Su Yan had just stepped out of Senior Ruonv's dormitory when he saw Senior Tianshen looking at him with a sly grin and beckoning him with his finger: "I've got something good for you."

"What is it?"

Separated by a small portion of the Jade Pool, Su Yan's eyesight still allowed him to clearly see the Heavenly God Senior, the Moon Rabbit Clan Chief sitting next to the Heavenly God Senior, flipping through books about celestial plants, and the four fox ancestors leaning against the railing, whispering to each other.

"Do me a favor and send her back to her mother's womb. In return, all the immortal crystals on the Daoist's body will be yours."

After much contemplation, the gods still couldn't understand Su Yan's method of returning to her mother's womb. Su Yan herself was also unaware that all her power originated from an extremely evil demonic artifact.

Although the gods could not know what kind of heaven-defying and insane person had comprehended such a heaven-defying Dao, it did not prevent the gods from finding it useful. Whenever a Nightmare Suppression disciple whom the gods despised came to challenge them, the gods would directly transmit their voices to Su Yan and ask him to go to the arena on behalf of his clansmen.

After the Heavenly Trial, the people of the Celestial Clan looked at Su Yan with fear and respect, afraid that Su Yan would suddenly go mad and slap them back into their mother's womb, ruining all their cultivation.

"Boom!"

As soon as Su Yan agreed to the Heavenly God's request, he suddenly felt a resistance behind him, pulling him forcefully towards the floating city. At that moment, Su Yan's floating city immortal ship emitted a low hum and slowly floated up from the mountains and forests, unfolding an energy barrier as it continued to move northward.

"Hey?"

Su Yan was taken aback when he saw this. He slowly turned his head and looked at Senior Ruonv's bedroom on the second floor of the floating city. Senior Ruonv was standing in front of the bedroom window, her brows furrowed as she looked at the God sitting cross-legged on the terrace.

"Oh dear. I've been met with hostility!" The celestial being noticed Ruonv's gaze but didn't react, simply watching the celestial ship sail away.

"Old Niu!"

After disappearing for a while to recuperate from his injuries, the Daoist Ziying rode the centipede monster out of the ground, looked at the celestial being sitting cross-legged on the terrace, and shouted loudly, "I will gladly accept your alchemy furnace!"

There was a celestial gate pillar that emerged from the mouth of the Taoist priest beneath the centipede monster. It was still covered in acid and secretions from the centipede monster's hundreds of white furnaces.

The celestial being's eyes twitched as he glanced at the four patriarchs of the Fox Clan and said, "Are you short of immortal crystals? If you can defeat that thing, that immortal crystal gatepost is your spoils."

The Heavenly God trusted Bai Ze's judgment in choosing his successor, and he didn't hesitate to make Su Yan the final choice.

But when it was the Fox Clan Ancestor's turn, the Heavenly God did not send any clansmen out to fight. Instead, he chose to invite the Fox Clan to lead the charge for him. In this way, even if they were defeated, he could step in as the final act, go down to hold down the centipede monster's head and beat it up, so that he wouldn't actually lose his familiar alchemy furnace warhammer.

"what?"

The fox family members were full of surprise, not quite understanding why this god would give them such a freebie.

Chapter 575 Kunlun Spirit Mountain (Third Update)

"The gods are creatures who enjoy excitement, but what they perceive as grand events are nothing short of a disaster for the weak and young children."

The floating city headed north. Inside the dormitory, Ruonv walked to the railing of the U-shaped building, looked at Su Yan whom she had pulled back, and said, "You only need to believe half of that guy's words; believing them too much will easily invite bloodshed."

For a war fanatic, the grand event he anticipates must be filled with the clang of metal and rivers of blood splattering with bright red and hot blood. However, due to the rampant presence of nightmare demons in large regions, there are currently no decent large kingdoms, so it is impossible for the large-scale intertwining of iron and blood that the gods expect to occur.

Ruonv was not speaking ill of the gods. The gods' cultivation of Su Yan was genuine, but whether Su Yan could bear the responsibility was another matter.

"Senior, why do I sense that you seem to have some reservations about Daoist Ziying?"

Su Yan looked up at Senior Ruonv and, after a moment of contemplation, voiced the question that had been buried deep in his heart.

The Daoist appeared twice. At first, Ruonv didn't say anything, only showing some disgust and aversion on her face. The Heavenly God also had the same expression on his face. Therefore, Su Yan didn't think much of it. It was just that the great figures of the Immortal Realm had an innate aversion to the disciples of the Nightmare Suppression.

However, when the second time the Daoist appeared, Senior Ruonv led him away without saying a word. Moreover, judging from the direction and expression of the Heavenly God on the terrace, the Heavenly God was clearly looking at someone. Besides himself, Senior Ruonv was the only other person on the Immortal Boat.

"Concerns? There are no concerns. If I really have to talk about concerns, it would be the existence behind Daoist Ziying."

"Ziying Daoist has the potential to become a witch. If we really kill him on Yaohuai Mountain, it will attract the attention of the ruler of Youdu Mountain. The Heavenly God obviously doesn't care about these things, but you are different."

Ruonv walked down the stairs, took off her coat, and entered the swimming pool. Most of her body was submerged in the water as she continued speaking:

"You have a mission entrusted to you by Bai Ze. Before you complete Bai Ze's mission, it is very important that you do not have too much contact with the followers of the Nightmare Town."

"The ruler of Youdu Mountain? The Netherworld Goddess?" Su Yan asked cautiously.

The Lord of Youdu Mountain. Judging from the place name and the honorific title, he is clearly a member of the Netherworld. Therefore, Su Yan cautiously asked, wanting to gossip about whether the Lord of Youdu Mountain was the elder sister of Senior Ruonv, and the first one born among the Ten Gods of Nuwa's Intestines.

"The ruler of Youdu Mountain is Tu Bo, who is also the most important member under the command of the Netherworld Goddess." Senior Ruonv told Su Yan some things: "There are actually divisions within the Netherworld. For example, the Netherworld Goddess is the one who rules the Netherworld, and she has a vast number of immortal witches selected from the Immortal Realm under her command."

The meaning of "immortal witch" is very simple; in plain terms, it is a sacrificial object that cannot die.

"Another area of ​​the Netherworld is called the Netherworld World, and its ruler is Tu Bo, who is also one of the most common Netherworld executors seen by people in the Immortal Realm."

"It will closely monitor those who have become sorcerers, but will not interfere with their actions. If anyone is capable of killing a sorcerer, they will attract the attention of the Earth God."

The shaman is a powerful being selected by the Netherworld. If a being can kill a shaman, then that being has indirectly proven that they are stronger than the shaman and have the potential to become an immortal shaman. They may be persecuted by the Netherworld's enforcers, led by Tu Bo.

These things are not really secrets to the creatures in the Sky Zone.

However, in the vast regions, only those beings who can freely enter and leave the Sky Zone know about it. Ruonv did not choose to tell Su Yan about these things at the beginning because, in Ruonv's view, the Holy Spirits had already chosen to let go and watch the beings drift, and would take care of their own people and the lives of their believers.

Faced with a world that has been completely divided, as if separated by life and death, how long can Su Yan hold on here?

When all living beings have become accustomed to gaining the power to split rocks and cross seas in a year; the power to open mountains and fill seas in ten years; and the power to freely soar through the sky in a hundred years, you want them to return to the time when it took three years of arduous training, ten years to lay the foundation, and a hundred years to gain the power that they could once obtain in ten years.

They won't think you're saving them; they'll think you're persecuting them.

In such a chaotic world, Su Yan might not even last long enough to obtain all of Bai Ze's power before choosing to return to Tianji Star with me. As for those matters related to the Netherworld, it doesn't matter whether we talk about them or not.
