Chapter 945: Eureka! (3)

The stone statue felt like he was being petrified a second time. What? He was starting to understand something. The little shit must be thinking that leaving like this would be a waste of this fortuitous encounter. Meanwhile, those talismans would grant the little shit a lot more flexibility.

Leaving the normal way could only happen through one of the gates. Some experts were probably already waiting outside. Leaving just like this would catch their attention, making things difficult for the little shit.

But if it was a teleportation talisman instead...

Even the stone statue was impressed at how far ahead the kid was planning. The kid was taking even things the stone statue had not considered into consideration. Nobody would expect the kid to leave without going through one of the gates.

Numerous thoughts surfaced in the stone statue's mind. How did this kid come up with so many ideas in such a short time? A hundred teleportation talismans? Was the kid dreaming?

So did such talismans exist? Naturally. But nobody had ever asked for it since the establishment of the city. With the gates around, what was the point of those talismans? When Su Yu saw that there was no reply again, he cursed inwardly.

Not even this was possible? What bullshit fortuitous encounter was this? Was this just a random illusion instead?

He carefully tried activating his blood character, but to his dismay, even establishing a connection with the character was difficult. Once again, he was alarmed. Fine, fine. He might have entered the domain of a super expert.

After a short silence, the loud voice rang out again, "Three teleportation talismans. But they will automatically disperse after three days."

Then, the space around Su Yu started crumbling.

Su Yu only felt his vision swim before finding himself back where he was. The stone statue was still there. They were still inside the hall. Nothing had changed. In fact, he had not stopped hammering the statue.

That realization gave him a massive shock. Suddenly, three talismans appeared out of thin air and floated in front of him.

Su Yu did not dare to think too much and hurriedly put his hammer away before lowering his head, "Thank you for your grace, Senior."

He still couldn't understand what happened. Was that the work of a super expert? Or was that merely an automatic response one could potentially encounter in the city? It didn't matter. It never hurt to be polite.

But he did not receive any response. He didn't mind that and accepted the three talismans. He was quite happy. With these talismans, he would be able to leave anytime. Unfortunately, there was a time limit for these talismans. Whatever. He would make it work.

Little did he know, the limitation was only there because the annoyed stone statue was trying to send him away as soon as possible. The stone statue was only willing to tolerate this little shit for three more days. It was as simple as that.

After a short moment, Su Yu recovered from his state of joy and started wondering about his previous encounter. How did it come about? Well, it had naturally appeared because of his forging attempt! This forging session had given him a lot. He had received the mysterious breathing technique and three escape talismans.

Perhaps...he would get even more if he continued. Was this similar to the Hundred Dao Pagoda where he could reset the level repeatedly for more rewards?

And thus, he continued his work, hammering the statue like his life depended on it. How great would it be if he could take this statue with him as well on top of the benefits he had already received?

The stone statue was stunned.

Holy shit!

Why was the little shit still here after receiving the talismans? Did the little shit get addicted to hammering him? If a mere little shit like this could really forge him into a weapon, he would have lived so many years for nothing.

The stone statue was quite speechless. He started increasing the intensity of the vibrations in his body.

Boom!

Su Yu started trembling madly. As blood started seeping out of his pores, he muttered, "The vibrations are getting stronger."

No wonder the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion had claimed that the mayor's residence was where the biggest opportunity could be found. Meanwhile, the stone statue was feeling more and more speechless.

He swore he had not taught this kid anything, just like how he hadn't taught people like Ye Batian anything. At the very least, he had not intentionally taught them anything. These people had merely been too creative with their imaginations, to the point they believed that this place was a place of opportunity after accidentally comprehending something here.

A place of opportunity? Absolute nonsense! More like a place of disaster. Alas, nobody would believe that. When Su Yu grew into an expert, he might also start telling others that he had obtained a massive opportunity here. Would the future generation doubt his words?

Nope.

In fact, even Su Yu himself would hold firm to that belief until the very end. After all, he had indeed benefited greatly here. For him, this might as well be a fortuitous encounter.

Vibrate. And vibrate. Hammer. And hammer. Through this process, Su Yu tempered his body, comprehended the art of vibrations, and practiced the breathing technique. The only disadvantage of this cultivation method was the massive exhaustion of heavenly source qi.

Su Yu was very pleased. What a nice place. A place of great opportunities. Perhaps he was still not strong enough to get even more from this place. But that did not matter. Like the Hundred Dao Pagoda, he could always return in the future to milk this place dry.

Perhaps at the Mountainsea Realm, he would be able to get a divine art with a single hammer strike. And at the Sunmoon Realm, he might be able to get a divine weapon with one hammer strike. What a nice place!

Eventually, his vibrate character advanced to the third tier. This character had not even formed for long. At Old Zhao's place, it had reached the second tier. But after learning the mysterious vibrating technique here, it had actually advanced to the next tier. With his newly advanced character, his hammer strikes became even stronger than before.

"Truly a massive fortuitous encounter!"

Once again, Su Yu was overjoyed. He had gained a lot this time. Danger? What danger? He was no longer in danger. With his talismans, he could leave the city anytime he wanted.

Boom!

After another hammer strike, Su Yu's vision swam. The stone statue finally lost his patience. He could tolerate the pesky hammer strikes, but that damn soul devourer inside the little shit's head seemed to believe that this was a place of opportunity as well. It had snuck out before giving his tail a bite. Screw that bullshit!

Sure, the little furball couldn't hurt his body, but this damn soul devourer was never aiming for his physical body. Instead, the damn furball's bite was landing straight on his sea of willpower.

This was too annoying. Thus, the stone statue finally decided to throw the two out of the hall. He was tired of this. Then, he hid his tail away. He decided to not let anyone see his tail anymore after this. As for the confusion Su Yu would feel upon noticing the missing tail during his next visit...well, that was none of the stone statue's business.

***

Meanwhile, Su Yu was staring at the shut door in front of him blankly. But a certain understanding dawned on him. He politely bowed and said, "Thank you for the guidance, Senior. I understand. I should not bite off more than I can chew."

Yes. He had learned enough here. He shouldn't be too greedy.

Regardless of whether he had been dealing with a pre-determined set of procedures or an actual living senior, that was most likely the reason for him to be expelled from the hall. He shouldn't be too greedy. He understood.

Beside him, the little furball was blinking in confusion. Earlier, he seemed to have bitten something extremely yummy! He should have done so earlier! He was too slow! Before he could fully savor the taste, he was already out here.

He stole a glance at Yummy and decided to stay silent about it. His attempt to eat that thing might be the reason for both of them to be kicked out. If Yummy found out, he might get beaten to death.

***

Somewhere inside the mayor's residence.

Tian He was blanking out as well. The door to the inner hall was shut? Just what was going on? As far as he could remember, that door had never been shut before. What did this indicate? Had the stone statue rejected the kid's request? How weird.

Tian He was utterly confused. Even back when Xia Longwu came here and drove the death spirits crazy, the door had not been shut. This was too surprising. Meanwhile, Su Yu had a wide smile on his face. Evidently, the kid had gained a lot from his visit. Thus, it did not seem like the kid had been kicked out.

This was too confusing. Whatever. This was none of his business. It was the stone statue's business.
