After much consideration, Su Yu decided to gift talismans. He knew both Su Qingyi and Chen Sisi, and so he decided to give each of them a first tier top-quality flame-cloud arrow talisman.
“Compared to medicinal pills, this could potentially save their lives at crucial moments,” Su Yu thought to himself.
Fortunately, he had the materials needed for flame-cloud arrow talismans in his Qiankun Bag. Although he had used up all his talismans when he fought the Golden Eagle Ghost Head, he still had nearly ten days – enough time for him to produce two more talismans.
He practiced the Green Wood Year Ring Skill and Body Refinement, while producing talismans in his spare time.
The young Earth Fire Ape was released from his beast-taming bag every day, and fed a few perfect first-grade lower-tier Hundred Beast Pills.
This creature was not even three years old, but its aura had already touched the peak of a first tier initial level magical beast, which was comparable to a cultivator who had just broken through to the third level of Qi Refinement.
At this growth rate, the Earth Fire Ape could become a middle-stage first tier magical beast in a year or two.
This growth rate was at least double that of an ordinary Earth Fire Ape.
Aside from feeding the Earth Fire Ape, Su Yu also nourished a seed he had obtained from an ancient Jade Box every day. After three or four years of nourishment, the seed was now fully restored and its life force was surging.
The day after Su Yu returned, the seed suddenly burst into a dazzling green light when he was infusing mana into it like usual, and it fell from his hand onto the ground.
In the blink of an eye,
The seed grew, and within a matter of breaths, a tree with a foot-long trunk, covered in palm-sized scales, appeared. Its ancient and vicissitudinous aura filled the air.
“What… what is this seed?!” Su Yu was startled.
Before he could figure it out,
A red flower formed on the tree. As the bud bloomed, the room filled with a rich pollen fragrance after a few hours.
When Su Yu inhaled the pollen, the blood energy hidden deep within his body by the Body Refinement Realm started to boil.
At the same time, Su Yu’s soul seemed to float, as if it were going to leave his body. He stepped out of his body’s constraints and appeared in mid-air, looking down upon his own body.
“It feels so good. What on earth is this seed?” Su Yu was incredibly astonished.
He could feel his Divine Sense rapidly strengthening.
In less than a quarter of an hour,
“Boom!”
The Crocodile Demonic Body Refinement Skill, which should have taken several more years to break through, had surged from the sixth layer to the seventh in an instant.
And only half of the pollen fragrance had been used up so far.
Another quarter of an hour later,
The pollen fragrance was completely consumed. The proficiency of the Body Refinement’s seventh level had increased to 44-7%.
The flower on the tree scattered to the wind and turned into ashes.
Afterward, the entire tree withered into ashes.
Another flat seed fell out.
Su Yu caught it, feeling overjoyed. The growth and blooming of the seed had saved him five to six years of refining his body.
“The seventh level Body Refinement is comparable to the seventh level of Qi Refinement.
After assessing the changes in his Divine Sense,
“My Divine Sense has grown by a whole twenty percent.”
Su Yu’s expression slightly changed. His cultivation in the Qi Refinement Realm had not improved, but his Divine Sense had become much stronger, which indicated that his foundation was even more solid and profound.
When he broke through in his future cultivation, the increase would be greater and stronger.
Every towering building starts from the ground.
A twenty percent increase in Divine Sense was a new transformation.
“Not only has my cultivation improved, but the strengthening of my Divine Sense will have an even greater impact on other areas such as Alchemy,
Talismans, and Formations,” Su Yu rejoiced, his gaze falling on the seed.
The new seed was a bit larger than the previous one, with a decent vitality.
However, it would probably take some time for it to sprout again.
With his state adjusted, Su Yu picked up the talisman brush and began to draw today’s Fiery Cloud Arrow talisman. Dipped in first-class top-notch fire elemental beast blood, the brush stroke fell on the talisman paper creating patterns that were like a formation and also like naturally formed talismanic runes.
Su Yu poured all his mana and Divine Sense into it, even his mental energy melted into the brushwork and the talisman.
Hum!
For more than two hours.
When the last stroke stopped, the talisman burst out with dazzling red light, the nature’s spiritual energy from all sides poured into it, magnifying its aura.
After a while, the nature’s spiritual energy became calm.
Su Yu’s face was rather pale, he had exhausted more than eighty percent of his mana, Divine Sense and mental energy, but looking at the talisman in front of him, he was very pleasantly surprised.
“A fine-quality talisman, I really drew it!” Su Yu laughed joyfully.
Just like the pills, any grades of talisman were divided into normal, fine-quality and perfect qualities, which were used to describe the quality.
The only difference from the pills is that the same ingredients can produce pills of different qualities.
But talisman couldn’t.
The talisman required corresponding materials, for example, to get a fine-quality first-class top-notch talisman, one needs to use a better quality of first-class top-notch fine-quality talisman paper.
So, fine-quality talismans were rare, because drawing them would be much more challenging.
As for a perfect quality talisman, it depended on the opportunity and luck, no shortage of materials, state, or skill can be tolerated, which was much rarer than a perfect pill.
The current fine-quality first-class top-notch Fiery Cloud Arrow Talisman happened to be the first first-class top-notch fine-quality talisman that Su Yu had drawn.
Success at the first attempt!
Feeling the aura of this talisman, Su Yu secretly thought, “This is much stronger than ordinary fiery cloud arrow talismans, even a Qi Refinement Stage nine cultivator, if used well, can severely injure or even kill the opponent.”
Seeing this, Su Yu was looking forward to more powerful talismans, like those ancient talismans, Fire Thunder talisman, Fire Dragon talisman, Fire Thunder Sword talisman.
If he can create more powerful talismans with them, he might be able to kill a Qi Refinement Stage nine cultivator instantly.
There were still few days before the wedding, Su Yu spent the following days drawing Fiery Cloud Arrow talisman, using up the five pieces of fine-quality materials in his hands, he managed to draw three pieces of fine-quality Fiery Cloud Arrow talisman, with a success rate of sixty percent, the proficiency of Fiery Cloud Arrow talisman has risen to 52%.
He also drew four pieces of ordinary Fiery Cloud Arrow talisman.
He used up all the materials he had prepared.
On the eve of the marriage between Su Qingyi and Chen Sisi, Su Yu gave his present.
In Su Yu’s view, Chen Sisi, a disciple of the Yunjian Sect, was pretty good, with a 8 to 9 points for appearances and an Ice attribute spiritual root. In terms of talent, she was one or two layers stronger than Su Qingyi.
But Su Qingyi’s cultivation progress was not slow, and he seemed to have his own chances.
They were a good match.
The wedding was grand, the Chen family brought a lot of people, the families of cultivators and cultivators who were in good terms with the Su family all came to Cang Mountain, the wedding banquet lasted for three days before it ended.
After the wedding, the Family Head Su Peng found Su Yu to discuss, he wanted Su Yu to represent the Su family to deal with the purple gold sand mine with the Chen family on behalf of the Su Family, to let him gain some experience.
But Su Yu refused with the reason of concentrating on cultivation and on alchemy.
Gaining experience?
Too risky! Wait until he breaks through to Foundation Establishment or even Core Formation, then it would proper to take up this task!
In the end, this matter was handed over to Su Qingyi to handle.
Su Yu, along with his master Su Yun, Su Zhi, and Chen Sisi who just finished her wedding, returned to Yunshan market, Su Zhi and Chen Sisi returned to their sect.
In the following time, Su Yu devoted himself to cultivating in Yunshan market.
From time to time, he would pay attention to the situation of the family and the Chen family, as well as the movements of the Bai family in Maple City..
