Chapter 457 - 455: Closed-door Cultivation
[Synthesis Successful: Immortal Transformation Triggered]
[Great Dao Cultivation Method: Refined to the extreme into a Great Dao Cultivation Method, it can integrate all cultivation methods past, present, and future, leading directly to the Great Dao Technique.....]
"No change?"
Su Qing was puzzled.
"Extract."
Afterward,
Su Qing immersed himself in comprehending the Great Dao Cultivation Method.
This Great Dao Cultivation Method was far more powerful than the previous one.
Fortunately, Su Qing possessed the Returning to the Source Immortal Body.
He remained in a state of extremely high Comprehension, constantly absorbing the new knowledge.
....
—
"He still hasn’t come out?"
At the Taichu Daoist Palace, outside Su Qing’s world, a pair of beautiful sisters gazed dejectedly at the entrance.
It was none other than Luo Yu and Luo Qing.
They had later heard that Su Qing had caused trouble for the Ancestral Dragon Race.
It was all because Yan Jiao had gone looking for trouble with Su Qing first.
The two women now felt extremely guilty.
They had even brought gifts to find Su Qing.
They also sent people to watch for him to emerge from his world.
Unfortunately,
over these three years of the Taichu Era,
Su Qing had made no move.
Even when Luo Yu and Luo Qing tried to find Su Qing,
they received no response.
—
Su Qing truly hadn’t noticed.
He had been busy comprehending things lately.
First, there was the synthesis of his Returning to the Source Immortal Body.
Now, he was absorbing the new Great Dao Cultivation Method.
So he basically had no time to pay attention to the outside world.
Even the sound of his communicator,
Su Qing paid it no mind.
It took him several more months to absorb this Great Dao Cultivation Method.
It couldn’t be helped.
This Great Dao Cultivation Method was very advanced to begin with.
For Su Qing to fully comprehend it in just a few months...
Only Su Qing could achieve such a feat.
He dared say that in the entire Star Sea, no one’s Comprehension was greater than his.
Unless the other person also had some kind of Standardization ability.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to surpass Su Qing.
"I’ve finally absorbed it."
"It’s much more profound than before."
"But it’s still within the Great Dao Realm."
Su Qing exhaled a turbid breath.
He had been holding it in for a long time.
First Cultivation, then comprehension, then absorbing a new constitution and Cultivation Technique.
Most importantly,
he could no longer just snack on fruits like he did in the Daoist Initial Realm.
This was real Cultivation.
Even multitasking,
Su Qing felt mentally exhausted.
’If I get my revenge...’
’What about after that?’ Su Qing wondered.
But he didn’t dwell on it.
He still had to get his revenge first.
He would deal with what comes after, after.
He couldn’t get ahead of himself.
If he failed to even get his revenge, it would be a joke.
Su Qing synthesized a few pots of Upper Bell Joy.
Then he synthesized them again.
[Bell Music Immortal Brew: An Immortal Wine. Consuming it allows one to hear the Bell Court Overture, cleansing body and mind...]
[Synthesis Possible]
"Extract."
Su Qing received a wine jar.
The jar was made of jade and even showed signs of Immortal Transformation.
When Su Qing opened the jar, he was greeted by a rich fragrance.
This aroma alone gave Su Qing a sense of peace in his Heart Spirit.
And he didn’t even need to immerse himself in a Visualization Map.
"So fragrant~"
Su Qing’s eyes lit up as he took a large gulp.
It was smooth going down, but the after-kick was strong. There seemed to be a force within the wine.
It instantly made Su Qing hear a kind of bell music.
The crisp ringing of bells created a magnificent and grand atmosphere, making Su Qing feel refreshed and carefree.
It seemed to be a sound that made one forget the mortal world.
Su Qing found himself unknowingly immersed, closing his eyes to listen carefully.
A smile unconsciously formed on his lips.
...
After a while, the sound faded away.
Only then did Su Qing open his eyes.
"Excellent. This wine is truly excellent."
Su Qing was full of praise.
He didn’t know what words to use to describe it.
If he were to be rational and objective,
then eighty percent of this entire jar of wine was composed of the Bell Court Overture.
Only twenty percent was actual wine.
Most importantly,
the wine was almost a physical manifestation of the Bell Court Overture.
Otherwise, how could he hear such beautiful music from a single sip?
Under the influence of this music,
even Ninth Realms Creatures would likely let go of their troubles.
They would drift off into a state of refreshing slumber.
"This wine is amazing."
"From now on, I’ll drink this whenever I get a craving. I’ll find Yu Hu and buy tens of thousands of jars later."
One jar of Bell Music Immortal Brew required more than twenty jars of other wine to make.
Su Qing then made some snacks to go with the wine.
He drank and ate his snacks.
When the wind blew, the fragrance of flowers it carried also helped Su Qing relax a bit.
’I should continue practicing the Great Dao Cultivation Method, in case I run into a situation I can’t handle.’
Su Qing had only been resting for a moment.
Xiaoqing flew over.
"Master."
"Mm."
"Xiaoqing can’t help you with anything right now..."
"Master, let me drink with you."
Xiaoqing whispered, then sat down opposite Su Qing.
It poured itself a drink.
"Can you even drink?"
Su Qing asked doubtfully.
"I should be able to. If I absorb it with my soul, isn’t that the same as eating?" Xiaoqing explained.
Su Qing shook his head. "You are useful, your time just hasn’t come yet. Go and cultivate properly. Also, perform an Inference every month about my situation."
"If there’s any bad news, tell me."
"Okay, Master." Xiaoqing’s small body began to bubble with joy.
It was just a little green blob, and now it was hopping around with excitement.
Xiaoqing had never thought about taking on a physical form.
Nor had Su Qing ever thought of making Xiaoqing take on a physical form.
In any case, the creature he had personally created was loyal to him.
No matter what, Su Qing would never do anything to harm Xiaoqing.
In this world, Xiaoqing was probably the only one who was one hundred percent loyal to Su Qing.
As for Su Qing’s Puppet,
he had no idea where it had gone.
It was probably swallowed by the Greed Realm.
"Alright, go do what you need to do. I’m going to cultivate."
Su Qing shook his head, amused.
He wished he could laugh as happily as Xiaoqing.
But for some reason,
he found it difficult to laugh now.
’Forget it. I’ll just go into seclusion.’
Su Qing thought it over.
It seemed that only seclusion
could make him feel like his life was full.
....

Host: Su Qing
Realm: Dao Flower Realm [Great Dao Cultivation Method: Dao Flower (23/120,000)]
’Half my Skill Level was deducted, and the total needed increased by 30,000. But the difficulty has also increased by more than tenfold.’
’It’s even harder now.’
Su Qing sighed.
Fortunately, his Returning to the Source Immortal Body was still effective.
Otherwise, he would really have to be in seclusion for a very long time.
It took nearly half a year to increase his Skill Level by one point.
A total of 120,000 Skill Level points.
One point every six months... the thought was simply torture.
If he didn’t keep chewing on tree leaves,
it would probably take forever.
Sixty thousand years.
By then, even Yu Hu’s children would be defying the heavens.
Multitasking,
Su Qing let his main consciousness sink into the Visualization Map to slumber.
This would reduce the fatigue on his primary consciousness.
....
Time flew by.
On Jianmu, thanks to the vast expanse of land,
and with the two young women from the Taichu Daoist Palace constantly sending back new knowledge,
Jianmu’s development accelerated.
Eventually,
the entire planet moved to the vicinity of the Taichu Daoist Palace.
The Cosmos near the Taichu Daoist Palace was a gathering place for many powerful beings, with proximity to the palace being the most important factor.
Many resources were traded in the outer regions of the Taichu Daoist Palace.
Only the Jianmu Omniscience Institute remained unaware that Su Qing had stirred up trouble with the Ancestral Dragon Race on their behalf.
The news had spread throughout this entire region.
After all, it was the Ancestral Dragon Race who had initially called for all beings to cease any interaction or communication with the Jianmu Omniscience Institute.
No one expected that before even a single Taichu Era had passed,
the Ancestral Dragon Race’s territory would be split in two by a single sword strike.
How big of a commotion this incident had caused...
Only the worlds in the outer regions of the Taichu Daoist Palace knew.
Su Qing’s name, as well as that of the Jianmu Omniscience Institute, had spread far and wide here.
When the Jianmu Omniscience Institute arrived,
they were met with immense respect.
....
