How About We Spar?
Splash--
Countless images vanished.
Su Yuan heard the notification sound of "Ten Thousand Layer Labyrinth".
Congratulations on passing the thirtieth level of the maze.
Su Yuan collected his thoughts, still immersed in the awe of commanding an interstellar war.
The reward for completing the thirtieth level of the maze is a "Space Teleportation Gem".
The notification tone sounded again.
"The Space Teleportation Gem."
Su Yuan remained calm; he had naturally learned about the reward for the thirtieth level of the maze beforehand from the Grey Mirror.
The Space Teleportation Gem is a life-saving item. Once activated, it can teleport the user a great distance instantly, allowing them to escape dangerous locations.
Several months ago, the Multi-Eye Race's Interstellar Colony Ship arrived. Captain Ao Qu, under the cover of numerous high-tech weapons deployed by Su Yuan in advance, was able to escape to the Arctic Continent in an instant.
It relies on the Space Teleportation Gem.
In the universe, such life-saving items have always been extremely valuable.
Captain Ao Qu's Space Teleportation Gem was obtained at great cost by his father, Tuo Lan Xiling, and given to Captain Ao Qu as his last trump card.
It can be said that possessing that Space Teleportation Gem means that unless one encounters a being of the Starry Sky Lifeform who can instantly encompass an entire inhabited planet with their mind.
Otherwise, by instantly creating a distance of tens of thousands of miles, Captain Ao Qu could at least buy enough reaction time.
It is used to deploy more other trump cards and tactics.
Unfortunately, Captain Ao Qu encountered Su Yuan, who knew the exact location of his Space Teleportation Gem and launched a preemptive strike.
"The Canglan Galactic Human Empire truly considers every aspect in its efforts to cultivate strategists."
Su Yuan sighed inwardly.
Strategists are weak in the early stages, and if they encounter dangers beyond their plans, they can easily find themselves imprisoned.
With this Space Teleportation Gem, there's much more leeway; at least with caution, death won't be so easy.
"However, this Space Teleportation Gem isn't of much use to me."
Su Yuan shook his head slightly.
Whether they are strategists or other cultivators and evolvers.
Unexpected dangers can easily arise. No matter how meticulously a strategist calculates, it is impossible to know everything in advance, and mistakes will inevitably occur.
That will be the most dangerous time for the strategist.
However.
None of this will ever happen to Su Yuan.
With the help of the Grey Mirror, Su Yuan was able to foresee any dangers he might encounter.
This allows for proactive avoidance or resolution of issues.
Unless Su Yuan himself chooses to face these threats, he will not encounter any danger.
Since there was no danger, this Space Teleportation Gem was naturally of no use.
"Keep it for now."
Su Yuan thought to himself.
Although the Space Teleportation Gem was of little use to him.
But something is better than nothing.
Even if you don't need it yourself, you can sell it for Canglan Coin, and then use the Canglan Coin to buy the resources you want.
They're all the same.
"The reward from the thirtieth dungeon is useless to me, but the reward from the fortieth dungeon..."
A hint of anticipation flickered in Su Yuan's heart.
Just as Su Yuan began his ascent into the twenty-first level of the maze.
The <Ten Thousand Layer Labyrinth> Community World has already gathered many people.
"Ming is starting to explore the maze."
"Based on the increasing difficulty of the <Ten Thousand Layer Labyrinth>, the challenge of the thirtieth layer should no longer be limited to the planet. I wonder how long it will take Ming to get through it."
"Yes, I was trapped in the thirtieth layer of the maze for quite a long time back then."
The onlookers whispered among themselves; many of them were strategists who had already reached the fiftieth, sixtieth, or even higher level.
They were all drawn in by Ming's exaggerated speed in navigating the maze, wanting to know which level of the maze could hold Ming back for a while.
Under everyone's watchful eyes.
The name "Ming" reappeared at an astonishing speed on the twenty-second and twenty-third stone tablets.
Only on the thirtieth stone tablet.
"Holy crap, it's still that fast?"
"Even the thirtieth stone tablet didn't hold Ming back for much of the time?"
"This Ming must have a remarkable background!"
The onlookers started discussing again. Now, Ming's strength was beyond doubt, and his true scheming ability was definitely far beyond the current thirtieth maze.
What everyone is curious about is the origin of "Ming" and the true limits of "Ming's" scheming.
"Such a brilliant strategist, let's add each other as friends first."
"Yes, let's add each other as friends first. Maybe we can ask Ming for advice in the future."
During the discussion, many people casually added Su Yuan as a friend.
After all, it's perfectly normal to befriend strategists, and even if Ming doesn't accept their friend requests, he won't suffer any loss.
Once the friend request is accepted, it's a huge win, as having a strategist's connection could play a crucial role at some point.
"More than a thousand more friend requests have been received."
Su Yuan glanced at the number of friend requests on the <Ten Thousand Layer Labyrinth> side.
Immediately, he began selectively accepting friend requests using the Grey Mirror.
Anyone who becomes a friend of Su Yuan will inevitably seek his help in the future and bring Su Yuan certain benefits.
Shattering the Void World.
Su Yuan's consciousness descended, and he looked at Qin Mo was standing not far away.
As the first Empire Citizen player Su Yuan encountered, Qin Mo's current status in the Money Gang is second only to the gang leader.
Of course, Qin Mo lived up to Su Yuan's expectations, managing the Money Gang in an orderly manner.
"Master, the Lu Family of Gongyang City has agreed; this is the <Nine Yang True Art>."
Qin Mo held a wooden box in his hands, inside which was the superior martial arts manual, the Nine Yang True Art.
Yesterday, following Su Yuan's instructions, he delivered the dagger, which embodied the power of Yin and Yang, to Lu Heng, a high-ranking official from the Lu Family in Gongyang City.
The other party stared at the dagger for almost half an hour before finally sighing and agreeing to trade the superior martial arts manual, <Nine Yang True Art>, from the Lu Family's collection for six thousand taels of gold.
After obtaining the Nine Yang True Art from Lu Heng, Qin Mo immediately rushed back to the Money Gang.
"Boss."
Qin Mo carefully handed the Nine Yang True Art to Su Yuan, feeling deeply moved.
This is a top-tier martial arts manual, worth ten thousand taels of gold and one hundred million Canglan Coin.
As a result, Su Yuan trusted him so much that he put him in full charge of this superior martial arts manual, without even a single person monitoring him.
How could Qin Mo not be moved by such trust?
You should know that if Qin Mo had even the slightest interest in this superior martial arts manual, he could have easily kept it for himself, deleted his account, and re-entered the game.
At that time, even if Su Yuan is at the peak of Starry Sky Lifeform and has the power to Destruction a life-bearing planet, he will be helpless.
What Qin Mo didn't know was that Su Yuan, through the Grey Mirror, had learned in advance that he would bring the Nine Yang True Art back safely, which was why he put Qin Mo in charge of many matters related to the Nine Yang True Art.
Other strategists deduced the outcome by observing the process.
However, Su Yuan followed the process based on the results.
"Nine Yang True Art?"
Su Yuan took the wooden box, opened it, and saw that it contained the original copy of a superior martial arts manual.
"This is a superior martial arts manual."
A strange look appeared in Su Yuan's eyes.
The description of this martial arts manual in the Grey Mirror suggests that its help to Su Yuan will be greater than that of the other superior martial arts manuals he has observed.
You did a great job.
Su Yuan closed the wooden box, looked at Qin Mo, and said, "How's your comprehension of the <Nine Methods of the Heavenly Blade> that I had you study?"
The Nine Methods of the Heavenly Blade is a special mid-level martial arts manual, and also one of the most suitable martial arts manuals for Qin Mo.
Comprehending this martial arts manual will be of considerable benefit to Qin Mo in breaking through the level 9 bottleneck and entering the Level 10 Starry Sky Lifeform.
Qin Mo was, after all, under Su Yuan's command and had been serving him diligently during this time, so Su Yuan naturally wouldn't treat him unfairly and would occasionally offer him some guidance.
"I'm currently working on it, and I feel I'll be breaking through that level soon."
Qin Mo's expression brightened slightly.
"Um."
Su Yuan nodded.
The moment the Grey Mirror looked at Qin Mo, it provided accurate answers to many questions, including when he had reached the Level 10 Starry Sky Lifeform.
After returning to the cultivation room.
Su Yuan then opened the wooden box and began to study the Nine Yang True Art.
In a daze, Su Yuan descended into the body of a burly man with his upper body bare.
"The yang energy in the world is boundless, but in my view, it is divided into nine types."
As the naked giant spoke, he drew upon an endless stream of Extreme Yang Power, which continuously manifested before him.
By comprehending the martial arts manuals of the Shattering the Void World, one can directly possess the founder and gain his most essential understanding of the martial arts manual and the corresponding cosmic power.
It's roughly equivalent to a top-level initiation ceremony.
This is also why Su Yuan did not directly learn the contents of the martial arts manual through the Grey Mirror, but instead searched for and studied the original manual.
Without directly comprehending the original martial arts manual and experiencing a profound, empowering understanding, simply knowing the words of the manual is of little use.
Two hours later.
Su Yuan suddenly opened his eyes.
Swish!
Su Yuan raised his right hand, and a large amount of Extreme Yang Power gathered in his palm, which then burned the air and gave birth to a cluster of flames.
"I see."
Su Yuan looked at the flame that had spontaneously combusted in his palm without any wind, his expression thoughtful.
I pondered for a moment.
Su Yuan inquired about the Grey Mirror from the depths of his consciousness.
Latest body data!
The Gray Mirror churned and blurred, revealing words one by one.
[Health Level: 8 (2%)]
[Cultivation Method: Six-Dimensional Cultivation Method]
[Sacred Art: Thought Imprint]
[Spear Technique: Perfected with the Extreme Yang 36 Forms]
[Spear Technique: Perfected with the Extreme Yin 36 Forms]
[Extreme Yang Power: 92%]
[Extreme Yin Power: 86%]
[Combat Bonus: 3320%]
"My comprehension of the Extreme Yang Power has increased directly from 85% to 92%."
"The Extreme Yin Power also increased by 1% thanks to the interaction of Yin and Yang."
Su Yuan thought to himself with considerable emotion, "There's also the Combat Bonus."
Before comprehending the Nine Yang True Art, Su Yuan's Combat Bonus was only 28 or 29 times.
Now it has increased by more than thirty-three times, which is nothing short of a leap forward.
"The Combat Bonus of a second-grade master is thirty times. My current Combat Bonus thirty-three times, which already qualifies me as a second-grade master."
Su Yuan was in a fairly good mood.
Among the top three ranks of the Shattering the Void World, the most numerous are rank three experts.
As for second-rank masters? There are far fewer of them, and the same goes for first-rank masters.
At the same time.
Outside Qingxiang City.
An elderly man with white hair stood there.
"We've finally arrived in Qingxiang City. I wonder if we can manage to recruit that 'Wu' to join us."
This white-haired old man was an Empire Citizen Player, and also a peak Rank 3 expert.
The purpose of this visit was to win over Su Yuan and bring him into the player community of the Great Yong Dynasty Royal Capital.
The Royal Capital of the Great Yong Dynasty is home to the most elite warriors from Nine Provinces of the World. It is the domain of the native strongmen. As for the Empire Citizen players? They can only stick together for warmth in the Royal Capital.
For this reason, whenever they learn of a player who is a player of the third rank in the Empire Citizen and who has formed a faction called "Canglan Pavilion" in the Royal Capital, they will send people to win them over.
The white-haired old man's destination was clear: after entering Qingxiang City, he went directly to the Money Gang.
He was brought before Su Yuan after only slightly revealing the aura of a peak third-grade expert.
"Fu Qingcheng greets Chief Wu." The white-haired old man, named Fu Qingcheng, looked at Su Yuan and said.
"Bring the wine." Su Yuan waved his hand, and immediately a maidservant brought out the fine wine.
"I've long admired Chief Wu's reputation. He's only just entered the third rank, yet he's managed to retain so many fourth-rank members. That's no easy feat."
The white-haired old man Fu Qingcheng, took a sip of fine wine and said with a smile.
"Just lucky." Su Yuan shook his head slightly.
"This is no fluke." Fu Qingcheng said seriously, "I've seen the video of Chief Wu's battle. He's only just entered the third rank, and his strength is probably comparable to the mid-stage of the third rank. With such talent, how could it be a fluke?"
Inside the ruins of the Ink Jade Sect, the Empire Citizen who were killed by Su Yuan had already posted the relevant videos on the Community World.
"This trip to Qingxiang City is on behalf of the 'Canglan Pavilion' of the Royal Capital to invite Chief Wu to join us," Fu Qingcheng said, getting straight to the point without any preamble.
"Join the 'Canglan Pavilion'?" Su Primordial Spirit calmly.
Canglan Pavilion is a faction formed by players of the Canglan Galactic Human Empire.
What can you offer?
Su Yuan asked with great interest.
Su Yuan didn't mind joining Canglan Pavilion, after all, he would go to the Royal Capital sooner or later.
The key question is: how much benefit can Canglan Pavilion offer to invite him?
As Su Yuan continued to cultivate, his need for superior martial arts manuals grew greater and greater, and the place with the most superior martial arts manuals in the Nine Provinces of the World was the Royal Capital.
"A superior martial arts manual perfectly suited to Chief Wu's skills," Fu Qingcheng immediately said.
The value of a top-tier martial arts manual is equivalent to 100 million Canglan Coin. In the outside world, this price would be enough to hire a level 15 or 16 Starry Sky Lifeform for a period of time.
"Three top-notch martial arts manuals; I'll choose which three," Su Yuan said directly.
"Three top-tier martial arts manuals?" Fu Qingcheng's lips twitched.
The cost has exceeded his expectations before he came.
"Chief Wu's appetite is indeed quite large." Fu Qingcheng pondered to himself, wondering how to get Su Yuan to lower his demands.
"How about this: I'll spar with Chief Wu. If I can defeat him, I'll use one top-tier martial arts manual; if I can't, I'll use three."
Fu Qingcheng thought for a moment and then spoke.
He was at the peak of the third rank, and even if Su Yuan's combat strength reached the mid-third rank, he was confident that he could defeat the opponent and let him know what kind of strength he had and how much benefit he could get.
