Cultivation: But Not a Game-Chapter 293 - 203: Loose Immortal Horned Demon’s Sneak Attack, Two-Headed Four-Armed Dharma Body
"The temperature inside is so high."
In just a few seconds, the two Tier Six flying swords began to show signs of melting.
"There must be some special flame inside."
Su Yu became intrigued, quickly moving laterally to stand before one of the blistering streams of flame, reaching out to grasp it. The chaotic elemental energy of heaven and earth rapidly condensed into a capturing hand that enveloped it.
"Bang!"
The capturing hand jolted violently as the searing stream of flame collided into it, forming a ball. The surface flame scattered, revealing a searing white flame stream within. The temperature in the air surged dramatically, and the capturing hand visibly began to melt.
Blazing Spirit Flame: Spiritual Object, the essence of fire condensed in the meeting place of ten thousand flames.
Su Yu’s eyes lit up, and he immediately approached. The temperature spiked, but having just acquired an eighth-tier water flame protection accessory, combined with his own strong physique and the five-element resistance of his Immortal Bone, he endured the terrifying heat.
He grasped the Blazing Spirit Flame, activating the treasure refining mantra of the Little All Heaven Cloud Forbidden Skill.
After a round of refining, the Blazing Spirit Flame remained steadfast.
"Damn it, my level isn’t high enough."
Su Yu released his grip and retreated, immediately opening his panel to focus on the Little All Heaven Cloud Forbidden Skill. The magic was only at the first level; advancing to the next required 25 million cultivation points and 150 Dao points. With the congenital root bone reduction, it needed only 18.75 million cultivation points and 135 Dao points.
"Upgrade!"
With a thought, he invested cultivation points and Dao points from his experience pool. His eyes glinted sharply, transforming into countless tiny, flowing tadpole-like symbols.
A few minutes later, the Little All Heaven Cloud Forbidden Skill rose to the second level.
Su Yu glanced at the cultivation and Dao points needed for the third level and softly commanded:
"Continue!"
A quarter of an hour later, the tadpole symbols in his eyes slowly faded, and the Little All Heaven Cloud Forbidden Skill reached the third level.
"Again!"
Expending only 600 million cultivation points and 1800 Dao points, he elevated the magic to the fourth level, requiring only 3.75 billion cultivation points and 18000 Dao points for the next and highest fifth level.
Cultivation points were sufficient, but Dao points were insufficient, with only 29 left.
However, it wasn’t a big issue; the fourth level of the Little All Heaven Cloud Forbidden Skill was enough.
Flying again to the Blazing Spirit Flame, he used the Innate Qi Capturing Skill to halt it. Before the capturing hand melted, he rushed forward to grip it tightly, quickly activating the Secret Skill, releasing countless clear tadpole symbols to seep into the Blazing Spirit Flame, which struggled like a dragon.
A minute later, the Blazing Spirit Flame’s resistance gradually subsided until it was entirely enveloped by a layer of rune-formed clear light, shrinking to the thickness of a finger and a foot long, obediently lying in his palm.
"Great thing, this can be used to forge high-level fire magic artifacts."
Su Yu smiled broadly, stowing away the item and swiftly flying to another nearby Blazing Spirit Flame.
The number of these was immense, with hundreds encircling the towering fire pillar. Gathered together, they could surely forge an eighth-tier treasure, and if he could find a more powerful and advanced fire treasure to serve as the core, even a tier nine treasure might be possible.
"Collect."
"Collect more."
Su Yu circled the towering fire pillar, collecting the flames one by one, moving upwards while gathering, delighted with his progress. In a short time, he had collected more than forty.
But he hadn’t noticed that the newly appeared towering fire pillar had also attracted the attention of others.
A Horned Demon People Loose Immortal also arrived in the area, spotting the towering fire pillar from afar and immediately noticing the figure collecting the Blazing Spirit Flames.
"A human?"
Particularly since the figure had not yet established a Dao Foundation, he touched his jade-like horn on top of his head, displaying a cruel smile, and disappeared in a flicker.
Su Yu, naturally, didn’t notice the figure suddenly appearing and disappearing dozens of kilometers away and continued diligently collecting the Blazing Spirit Flames.
Before he knew it, he had circled the towering fire torch, arriving near a space rift thirty meters long and two meters wide. As usual, he gathered a capturing hand of Innate Qi to intercept the Blazing Spirit Flame and skillfully used the Little All Heaven Cloud Forbidden Skill to refine it.
Just then, he suddenly sensed something, turned his gaze, and saw an extremely sharp sword light slicing out from the space rift.
The two swords combined, poised for an ambush, right as he was refining the Blazing Spirit Flame.
With all these factors combined, Su Yu couldn’t dodge in time, having to watch as the fierce sword light flashed into a stream of light, barely visible to the naked eye. The protective shield shook violently, and his defense quickly diminished.
"Human, die!"
"Horned Demon People, Loose Immortal!"
Su Yu snorted coldly, refining the Blazing Spirit Flame in his hand, reaching out to grab the Cyan Gang Sword and swinging it down.
"Ding ding clang clang!"
A series of crisp sounds exploded, sparks flying everywhere, but the flying sword was not deflected. Instead, it forcefully suppressed the Cyan Gang Sword while maintaining a close and fierce attack.
Even with double damage reduction, the protective shield couldn’t withstand the full-force assault of a Loose Immortal Sword Immortal. Within just five seconds, it was forcibly torn apart, the barely visible stream of light silently moving at an angle, aiming directly at his throat beside the Cyan Gang Sword.
Su Yu’s face showed a sly smile, making no apparent movement but raising the broken protective shield again.
"What?"
Behind the space rift, the Horned Demon People Sword Cultivator was evidently surprised, his attack pausing momentarily.
At that moment, Su Yu seized the opportunity, opening his mouth and spitting forth the Purple Thunder Sword that he’d been keeping hidden.
"Thunder-controlling Divine Power!"
Attack power and speed +100%, flying sword speed skyrocketing, at that moment accurately hitting the flying sword passing by his throat.
"Clang!"
No matter how much attack power is increased by 100%, it can’t match a Loose Immortal holding two high-grade flying swords with combined strength and speed, but plus the impact of Sword Intent causes a soul-stopping jolt.
This momentary pause is enough for Su Yu to open space, with a thought, a cyan light bursts from the crown of his head, quickly transforming into a cloud that spreads open to form a treasure cover, protecting him.
In a situation of close-range attack, a protective barrier can be raised for defense, but cannot summon defense treasures.
Because the protective barrier rises and springs open from the body’s surface, so even the closest attack can be repelled.
However, defense treasures are different, like the Cyan Cloud Cover raising its treasure light lowly, it will also cover any close-range attacking enemy’s flying sword.
Thus, Sword Cultivators are most suited for surprise attacks, suddenly rising to fiercely attack at close range, relying only on the protective barrier for defense, no matter how good a defense treasure is, it can’t be utilized at that moment.
If the attack is fast and fierce enough, the enemy may not even have time to raise the protective barrier.
After all, raising a protective barrier only takes a thought, if the attack is fast and fierce enough, it can complete a kill in an instant.
"Cloud Protection!"
Su Yu decisively activates the treasure’s attached ultimate move to enhance defense, while dual swords surround him for self-protection, grabbing the Wind God’s Order to activate:
"Fix!"
The Divine Wind Power descended, fixing the Horned Demon hidden in the space crack, following which he reached out with a virtual grasp to launch the previously condensed innate water thunder.
"Boom!"
Innate Gui Water elite and Lunar True Water transformed into thunder explosively, turning into a terrifying cold tide explosion, instantly freezing a range of two kilometers.
The freezing power of Lunar True Water and Profound Yin True Water combined with the binding of Wind God’s Order, even a Loose Immortal can’t exempt, as the two combined flying swords attacking him paused and appeared, splitting into two and halted in the air.
Su Yu decisively reached out with a virtual grab, Cyan Gang and Purple Thunder suddenly brightened, combined into one sword light swelling and shooting skyward, disappearing in the blink of an eye into a stream of light.
Flicking his fingers repeatedly, beams of sword light shot into the void.
The next moment, the defense treasure light on the Horned Demon trembled fiercely, torn apart forcibly two seconds later, followed by a flash of indiscernible stream of light, causing its protective Gang strength to violently shake. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
In merely three seconds, the muscles on the Horned Demon’s face twitched slightly, showing signs of breaking the restraints.
Su Yu decisively pointed a finger to activate the Profound Mystery Layer Forbidden Skill Hundred-Eyed Divine Light, a phantom of the Hundred-eyed Demon Spider appeared above, hundred eyes opened and shot hundred beams of divine light at the Horned Demon Loose Immortal, a few divine lights ignored the protective Gang strength and blasted in, making the Horned Demon Loose Immortal faint again.
"Die!"
"Mysterious Court One Finger!"
"Primordial Qi of Ten Thousand Transformations Divine Thunder."
"Reincarnation Sword Net!"
He decisively reached out with a virtual grab, the three hundred sword Qi condensed in just three seconds revealed themselves and merged towards the center.
In this instant, Su Yu unleashed all the means of instant explosion he could use, forcibly breaking through all of the opponent’s defense strategies and overwhelming them.
"Boom!"
After the intense explosion, a fierce spiritual light rushed skyward blasting open the chaotic energy, revealing a thirty-meter-high Horned Demon with two heads and four arms.
Dao Foundation Manifestation: Qi and Blood 1.6 million, Mana 320,000, Physique 12,600, Force 15,800, Speed 5,500 kilometers/hour, Qi and Blood Regeneration 500 points/second, Mana Regeneration 50 points/second, Manifestation Specifics: High-grade Manifestation, Rapid Casting, Two Heads and Four Arms.
High-grade Manifestation: Universal feature of the manifestation, damage reduction +50%, negative status effects and duration -50%.
Rapid Casting: Universal feature of the manifestation, capable of casting magic at incredible speed, mana consumption -50%.
Two Heads and Four Arms: Unique trait, capable of simultaneously casting two Dao techniques and activating four treasures.
"Damn, still not dead?"
Su Yu looked at this thing appearing in disbelief and roared to the sky in anger, the four arms swung repeatedly, a series of fire thunders shot out like a machine gun, the casting speed was astonishingly fast.
At the same time, the other head at the back mouthed spells, the void over dozens of kilometers darkened, stars began to emerge, it clearly was using powerful forbidden spells or divine techniques.
Each of the two arms wielded a sword to slash down, two sword rainbows dragged out sword mountains several kilometers long in an instant.
The other two arms, one held a Treasure Pearl surrounded by flames to activate, the other held a thunder hammer encircled by purple lightning, raising it high with a ’crack’ explosive sound, a person-thick purple lightning struck across seven or eight kilometers.
However, Su Yu had begun retreating far away once this manifestation appeared, opting not to escape entirely but kite.
This thing obviously belonged to high-grade manifestation, unlike middle or low-grade manifestations mostly being Five Elements Manifestations, merely with strong spell casting abilities, unbeatable in simpler battles.
This high-grade manifestation is a true form, very powerful, most of Su Yu’s means had been exhausted, definitely unable to defeat it.
First, evade its sharpness and take a breath.
At this moment, Su Yu can be sure, this Horned Demon Loose Immortal is definitely a high-grade Dao Foundation, only the level isn’t high, likely established recently.
If it were a seasoned high-grade Dao Foundation, that wave of explosion would have surely killed him.
Moreover, this Horned Demon Loose Immortal likely isn’t primarily cultivating Sword Dao, but dual cultivates, mainly studying Dao techniques, evident from his Sword Dao skill level.
Having not even comprehended Sword Light Division, hardly a Sword Immortal.
