After Su Yu finished speaking, a figure emitting a blue-gold aura appeared beside him.
"Oh!" The Fragrant Illusion Immortal Grade noticed the abnormal state of the Blue Silver Emperor. "The aura of the Blue Silver Emperor, could it be you..."
"This is my Soul Spirit Technique, a method to preserve the consciousness and soul of a Soul Beast and form a contract with a Soul Master, allowing the Soul Beast to survive even after the Soul Master absorbs the Soul Ring."
"Twenty thousand years for the Blue Silver Emperor, this is my Sixth Soul Ring. Any future Soul Rings I acquire will at least be of this age, so you don't need to worry."
As soon as Su Yu said this, the Ten Thousand Year Immortal Grasses present felt a massive blow.
What kind of person is this?
Hm, you look down on us, we look down on you too.
The Fragrant Illusion Immortal Grade muttered in her heart.
However, Su Yu's Soul Ring combination amazed her. Truthfully, this kind of talent indeed sparked some imaginations in them, especially after a brief chat with the Blue Silver Emperor. The more they understood Su Yu, the more curious they became.
Perhaps, like that individual from ten thousand years ago, he could break through the Hundred Level barrier and become a true God.
Unfortunately, our years don't measure up.
The group of Immortal Grasses lamented.
While the Blue Silver Emperor was chatting with the various Immortal Grasses, Su Yu sat cross-legged to study the Medicine Chapter of the Profound Celestial Treasure Record.
He didn't let the Blue Silver Emperor chat indefinitely.
"Old Lan, try cultivating here and see if you can improve your cultivation level."
The Blue Silver Emperor nodded, sat cross-legged as a virtual image beside Su Yu, and began to draw on the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi exhaled by the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye. The Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi absorbed was integrated into the Soul Ring as taught by Su Yu, starting to nurture its Spiritual nature.
Su Yu was in no hurry to rush the Blue Silver Emperor, he then looked at the numerous Immortal Grasses.
"My Ultimate Life should also be very beneficial to you. I can provide you sufficient Life Force for absorption, but you must also offer something of equal value in exchange.
For instance, the Blazing Jelly from the Fiery Fire-Flavored Vegetable."
Su Yu proposed mutual benefit through trade, and the Immortal Grasses pondered the pros and cons.
"I don't need your treasures for now. Currently, I only need to cultivate with the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye. During this period, while I cultivate, I will provide you with some Life Force for absorption."
Between the lines, it suggested that he could offer his service before asking for theirs.
"That's great." Youyou said happily.
The Blue Silver Emperor also opened his eyes at this moment, explaining to Su Yu his experience in cultivation this time.
"There are results."
Previously, Su Yu had already developed the Spirit Nourishment Technique, enabling a Soul Spirit to absorb Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, integrating it into the Soul Ring and nurturing its Spiritual nature.
However, when initially cultivating this Spirit Nourishment Technique, it seemed ineffective, and despite numerous checks by Su Yu, no issues with the technique were found.
Elder Yi concluded that nurturing Spirituality isn't straightforward and requires Primordial Qi that's not ordinary, needing celestial timing and geographical advantages to assist.
"Celestial timing and geographical advantages, Immortal Spirit Qi."
This might be the key to nurturing the Spirituality of Soul Rings.
"This Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye benefits from celestial timing and geographical advantages, with highly pure power as its root from the depths of the spring, akin to the Divine Dragon Power in Dragon Valley.
Using this power as a root, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye itself accumulates countless essences from the Douluo Continent, and the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi it generates isn't just higher in concentration."
No matter how high the Primordial Qi concentration, the cultivation speed of plant-type Soul Beasts still faces limitations due to aptitude.
Only the pervasive Immortal Spirit Qi can allow the plant-type Soul Beasts here to grow nearly without limits, at ten times the speed.
Hearing that the Spirit Nourishment Technique was effective, Su Yu felt a relief.
This also meant that Su Yu's "Spirit" Rune wasn't drawn in vain.
The "Spirit" Rune was something Su Yu felt while in Dragon Valley, and later absorbed from the Thundering Yama Prison Vine Spirit. After researching the innate ability that could improve cultivation through Thunder Body Forging, this rune was constructed.
The Spirit Nourishment Technique was also developed using the "Spirit" Rune as a blueprint.
"Old Lan, your Soul Ring is already twenty thousand years, and obtaining results isn't immediately easy. Help me nurture the first three Soul Rings for now."
Su Yu experienced the benefits of having a Soul Spirit for the first time.
While the Blue Silver Emperor was cultivating, Su Yu didn't continue chatting but prepared to try some theories.
The trip to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye was something he had been planning in his cultivation journey, and with thorough preparations, many hypotheses needed to be verified one by one.
The increase in Soul Ring years now had a stable method. The stable and renewable Immortal Spirit Qi in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye was the essence for the future enhancement of his Soul Rings.
"Now it's time to attempt Body Forging."
Su Yu's Bone Pattern Cultivation Technique had already reached a certain proficiency, but had always been tempered using Qi and Blood Power. Now he planned to use the two extreme forces, Ice and Fire, emerging from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye for Body Tempering.
Giving his all, he reached the lake shore, sat cross-legged, and began cultivating.
The two red and blue energies emerging from the spring were drawn out by him and absorbed into his body.
Under the fusion of Qi and Blood Power and Life Force, the two extreme powers circulated within his body.
Upon his bones, red and blue Runes gradually began to imprint themselves.
...
Su Yu, during his initial cultivation at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye, became engrossed, cultivating for a full three hours.
The group of Immortal Grasses competed to absorb the surging Ultimate Life Force from Su Yu's body.
Opening his eyes and concluding his cultivation, Su Yu experienced changes in himself.
"More efficient than mere Qi and Blood."
After validating many hypotheses, Su Yu bid farewell.
"Old Lan, it'll be a bit of a task for you during this period." Su Yu entrusted the "Spirit" Rune to the Blue Silver Emperor.
The "Spirit" Rune wasn't just for nurturing Spirituality, but could also store Spirituality, left with the Blue Silver Emperor by Su Yu.
"It's fine; I don't have much else to do anyway."
Following this, the Blue Silver Emperor would remain at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye, absorbing Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, operating the Spirit Nourishment Technique, integrating into the "Spirit" Rune, and storing Spirituality. Once Su Yu retrieved the "Spirit" Rune, the Spirituality could be merged into the first three Soul Rings.
The Soul Spirit could exist beyond the body, and with the Blue Silver Emperor's twenty thousand years of cultivation stabilizing his Spirit Body, coupled with Su Yu's powerful Spiritual Power, even if Su Yu returned to Tiandou City, it wouldn't delay the Blue Silver Emperor's stay at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye.
...
"Xiaosu, where did you go in broad daylight?" Songzi complained.
Su Yu had gone out early in the morning and had been out of sight all day, returning only late at night. Songzi thought something might have happened to him.
"Brother Songzi, nothing much, just went out for a walk. By the way, did you need me for something?"
Songzi waved his hand, saying, "It's nothing too important, just wanted to tell you that Brother Kuang will be back in two days, so be careful not to upset him."
Su Yu nodded.
Seeing this, Songzi reminded again.
"Brother Kuang isn't the same as Boss Zou. Boss Zou is easy-going, but Brother Kuang is much stricter. However, once Brother Kuang acknowledges you, he considers the brothers as family."
"Brother Songzi, I understand. Thank you for the reminder."
Seeing that Su Yu understood, Songzi nodded satisfied and then went back to his room to rest.
...
Over the next two days, Su Yu traveled back and forth between Tiandou City and the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye, using the Ice and Fire Power for Body Tempering during the day and cultivating Soul Power at the Kuangyun Guard Team headquarters at night.
The third day.
Early in the morning, Su Yu was awakened because Brother Kuang, Feng Kuang, the vice-captain of the Kuangyun Guard Team, was returning.
Outside the headquarters courtyard of the Guard Team.
A sturdy middle-aged man, two meters tall and emanating a formidable presence, pushed open the gates with five others.
"Brother Kuang is back?"
The members of the Guard Team had good relationships, especially with Brother Kuang, who seemed to command great respect and admiration. They all came forward loudly celebrating.
Zou Yun stepped forward to inquire about important matters.
"What's happening over there, why has production suddenly increased greatly?"
"It's nothing major."
Feng Kuang waved his hand, indicating to Zou Yun that it was fine, while his gaze swept over the crowd.
"I heard you recruited a young genius, where is he? Let me take a look."
While speaking, Feng Kuang's eyes had already locked onto Su Yu.
Su Yu felt his Qi and Blood Power being stimulated, accelerating its operation, and a fierce aura approached.
"You, who are you?" Feng Kuang pointed at Su Yu, his fierce aura clear to see, and asked.
Songzi's heart skipped a beat.
