Chapter 1650 - 1651 Heavenly Dao Orthodoxy
Before stepping into the Luo Clan, how much preparation did Su Chengyu really undertake? Clearly understanding the dire circumstances within the Luo Clan, why did Su Chengyu linger in Luoshui Village for so long?
After meeting Aunt He, why did Su Chengyu not invite this elder—who could undoubtedly assist him—to join him in heading toward the Luo Clan?
The first reason, naturally, was to locate the entrance to the Luo Clan’s Blessed Realm, allowing him to slip into the Luo Clan undetected.
The second reason was to accumulate as much strength as possible during this time. Elixirs and Magical Treasures are rare opportunities that can only be obtained through fortuitous encounters, and Su Chengyu, while staying in Luoshui Village, was essentially conjuring miracles out of thin air.
But during this period, Su Chengyu didn’t merely strive to adjust his own condition or the state of the Heaven-Mending Stone. He also practically spent all his wealth to repair the damages to the Wasteland Battle Halberd.
Su Chengyu was well aware of the power a true Immortal Artifact possessed. After experiencing the enlightenment imparted by the Immortal Monarch Tianshang, he gained an entirely new understanding of the strength of the Wasteland Battle Halberd.
However, in the depths of his heart, Su Chengyu had never completely trusted this Immortal Artifact with which he’d made a temporary contract. Even though they had fought side by side on several occasions, and he’d come to believe the Wasteland Battle Halberd wouldn’t betray him.
Yet, for a weapon destined to leave him sooner or later and pledge loyalty to another, how could Su Chengyu truly bear to allow it to consume large quantities of Magical Treasures to restore its strength?
After all, instead of exhausting resources on the Wasteland Battle Halberd, it would have been better to wager on the Heaven-Mending Stone, which was far closer to him and held greater potential.
Unfortunately, the bottleneck of the Heaven-Mending Stone was an inescapable inevitability.
Even without explicit words, Su Chengyu understood that enabling the Heaven-Mending Stone to transcend qualitatively was no longer a matter that could be solved just by quantity.
