Cultivation: But Not a Game-Chapter 241 - 152: Supreme Sword Skill Mastered

When enough Power of Time and Power of Reincarnation were accumulated, Su Yu took out the Immortal’s Manual, opened the interface, and began to convert his cultivation.

The Immortal’s Manual was activated, and a faint clear light flew out, swirling as it rose and infused into his forehead.

On the interface, the level of the Taibai Sword Formulas rapidly decreased, while the level of the Destiny Reincarnation Sword Scripture slowly rose.

This feeling was like stripping away the cultivation points and Dao practice previously invested into the Taibai Sword Scripture and reinvesting them into the Destiny Reincarnation Sword Scripture. Lower-level cultivation skills require fewer cultivation points and Dao practice, while higher-level cultivation skills require more, causing compression of the cultivation skill during conversion, with the compression ratio determined by the levels of the two skills.

The gap between advanced and supreme levels is quite significant; normally, converting from an eighty-level advanced sword formula to a supreme sword skill would compress it to about a dozen or twenty levels.

But now Su Yu, with the support of the Immortal’s Manual, had a source constantly releasing power combined with the cultivation points and Dao practice released from the Taibai Sword Scripture, converted to the Destiny Reincarnation Sword Scripture, keeping the sword skill conversion at a higher level as much as possible.

Time passed, and the level of the Taibai Sword Scripture kept decreasing.

Seventy levels.

Sixty levels.

Thirty levels.

Meanwhile, the Destiny Reincarnation Sword Scripture, combined with the power of the Taibai Sword Scripture and the Immortal’s Manual, was continually rising in level.

Five levels.

Ten levels.

Twenty levels.

Forty levels.

Until the Destiny Reincarnation Sword Scripture soared to fifty levels, the Taibai Sword Scripture in the interface and the jade slip of the Immortal’s Manual in hand simultaneously disappeared, leaving only the lonely Destiny Reincarnation Sword Scripture in the sword formula section of the interface.

Su Yu immediately checked the attributes of the supreme sword formula.

Destiny Reincarnation Sword Scripture (Supreme): Xuan Sect Supreme Sword Formulas, cuts destiny, severs lifespan, can forcibly change others’ life trajectories.

Attributes: Sword Gang damage is the sum of the power of the sword formula and the power of the Flying Sword, traits: Reincarnation, Mana consumption of 50 points per second.

Reincarnation: After the Sword Gang collapses, it can gather again by injecting Mana.

Thirtieth level derivation of Destiny Reincarnation Sword Scripture: [Sword Qi Protection], condenses sword qi into a protective gas shield, giving it stronger defense.

Attributes: The protective gas shield has extra traits, Time, Reincarnation.

Time: Washed by the Power of Time, protective gas shield +60% damage reduction, immune to aging, time, and other negative effects.

Attributes: Reduce opponent’s 100% all recovery, all magic cooldown time +200%, the target killed loses an extra 200% upon death.

All of the above are attributes with double bonus from talent, appearing extremely exaggerated.

With the Cyan Gang and Purple Thunder Dual Swords’ 1500 damage, Tier Seven Flying Sword boosts sword skill power by 70% to 10500, totaling 12000 lethality, plus the Golden Turtle Ring adds 200, and the god-like swordmanship realm bonus adds 100%, Su Yu’s current Flying Sword lethality reaches a staggering 24400, explosively powerful.

"Strong!"

"As expected of a supreme-level sword formula!"

After conversion, its paper output alone is six times that of before, combined with similarly enhanced derivative sword skills, the current output is probably more than ten times that of before.

"To this day, I can finally say I’ve made a breakthrough."

Smacking his lips, Su Yu contentedly closed the interface.

It’s worth mentioning that the Immortal’s Manual should have provided additional benefits after use, offering a chance to obtain the insights of an Immortal. However, since it wasn’t used normally but for the purpose of modifying a cultivation skill, the Immortal insights couldn’t be gained.

But this is not a big issue, as using it to modify a Supreme-grade Sword Formulas already enhances the Sword Skill level far beyond normal use, which is already quite profitable.

"Now that I have the Sword Formulas, next I need a top-tier Qi Refining Heart Skill."

Su Yu rubbed his chin, beginning to plan for the future.

"After I return from the Thousand Feather Association, I can start the Xuankong Mountain’s sect-level inheritance trial. Once I obtain the Sect-level Qi Refining Heart Skill, the next step is to prepare to refine all four Immortal Bones. By then, I can basically prepare to undergo the tribulation."

Not expecting the Supreme Tier Qi Refining Heart Skill, there’s no channel for that at the moment.

The Supreme Sword Formulas can be pursued by adventuring in the Sword Palace, but he currently has no means to acquire the Supreme Heart Skill.

Xuanzhen Immortal Sect indeed has many Supreme inheritances, but they are the main branch’s sect-level inheritances, and to acquire them, he would have to transfer branches, from Xuankong Mountain to the main branch.

He certainly couldn’t do such a thing.

Besides that, there’s only seeking outside, like searching some ancient relics or Immortal relics and such.

The probability of this.....

That’s why he said it’s not worth counting on, better honestly use the Sect-level Qi Refining Heart Skill, which isn’t weak, and it won’t affect future tribulation passing and becoming an Immortal.

In this world, Qi Refining Heart Skills above the proficient level are enough for cultivators to reach the Earth Immortal level; it’s just the power of the cultivation skill that varies, with some being stronger than others.

Further progress, if wanting to become an Immortal, a Celestial Immortal, at least requires a Sect-level Qi Refining Heart Skill.

Therefore, the difference between a Sect-level and Supreme-level inheritance lies in power, both have the potential to lead to immortality.

If there’s no Supreme-level Heart Skill available, a Sect-level one will do.

The transition was completed successfully in just three days.

After exiting seclusion, Su Yu immediately informed his senior brother, master, and grandmaster. The master didn’t respond. After asking the third senior brother, he found that the master was sent by the grandmaster to earn sect contribution.

Su Yu...

As for the grandmaster, he was on the mountain. Upon receiving the news of Su Yu’s exit from seclusion, he rushed back immediately.

"If you have personal affairs to handle, feel free to go, just handle them quickly and return."

"Additionally, regarding the materials needed for your remaining four Immortal Bones, I’ve already made inquiries. Some are available within the sect, and for others, I will need to exchange with old friends. You don’t need to worry about the sect contributions or any major or minor merits required for the exchange, as your master will cover these. Just focus on cultivating diligently, accumulating enough cultivation points and mastery."

Feeling a bit embarrassed, Su Yu said:

"These were supposed to be prepared by myself, having my master prepare everything is too..."

"No need to pity him."

Master Xuanwei waved his hand powerfully:

"This kid has always had things going too easy. When he was a disciple, I backed him up. Now that he’s accepted as a disciple, he casually accepted such a good student like you. I’m afraid it won’t take long before he’ll rely on his disciples for an easy ride again. Where in the world is there such a good thing? If he doesn’t work hard to nurture his disciples, I’ll transfer you to your senior master’s tutelage."

Su Yu’s mouth twitched, rendered speechless.

It seemed the grandmaster has been displeased with the master for some time.

Then the grandmaster chatted with him for a while longer and before leaving gave him two items.

A Great Transposition Divine Talisman, capable of teleporting him back to the sect across billions of miles in an instant.

An Earth Immortal Talisman, which, when activated, can unleash the grandmaster’s full power for an attack, or can be used for protection, as the Earth Immortal mana is sufficient to safeguard him as he activates the Great Transposition Divine Talisman to teleport away.

Securing the items and bidding farewell to his grandmaster, Su Yu left the mountain.

He directly teleported to Five Dragon City via the sect’s Teleportation Array and went down along the Yuanjiang River.

Controlling his sword in the void, he sped like the wind, incredibly fast.

At this moment, Su Yu’s speed of Sword Control was extremely fast, the velocity from fifty layers of Supreme Sword Formulas was 10,000, a Tier Seven Flying Sword 70% Sword Formulas boost was 7000 speed, Flying Sword +1000 speed, Golden Turtle Ring +200 speed, total speed was 8200, faster than the Jade Sinking Ship.

This journey, without any monster encounters, was purely focused on travel.

The distance from Five Dragon City to the Thousand Feather Association was over a million kilometers, at a speed of 8200, only five days were required to reach.

Early on the fifth day, Su Yu had already arrived at the river surface not far from the Thousand Feather Association, seeing from a distance a large fleet with a flag of an unknown guild anchored near Thousand Feather City.

The fleet consisted of three Tier Six Giant Wood Divine Ships, three Tier Six Poison Dragon Battleships, twenty-two Tier Five Turtle Shell Battleships or Rage Whale Ships, and over a hundred Tier Four Wave-piercing Giant Ships.

The fleet wasn’t attacking Thousand Feather City but was practicing on the river surface, countless water columns bombarded the river surface under the lightning bombardment.

"Which guild is so arrogant!"

Practicing near someone else’s guild headquarters, Su Yu had never heard of or seen such a situation before during his time in the guild.

Su Yu didn’t enter Thousand Feather City directly but observed from the outside.

He hadn’t visited in a while, but Thousand Feather City’s traffic was far less than before, feeling like it was less than half of its previous volume.

After opening the regional channel, the frequency of information updates on the channel was noticeably lower, hardly a tenth of what it used to be, and the conversations weren’t about trades or party formations like before, but mostly casual chat, focusing mainly on the current predicament of the Thousand Feather Association.

Su Yu watched for a while, furrowing his brows more and more tightly.

"It’s become this miserable."

Although the players’ conversation was fragmented, combining insights from the conversations with the information he gathered within the sect, he roughly pieced together the guild’s current situation.

"It’s truly a crumbling building!"

Su Yu sighed, turned, and headed north along the Chensha River.
