Chapter 1039: Su Yu Is Dead? (3)
Su Yu stopped thinking about anything else and focused on only one thing: his cultivation.
Every bit of strength mattered.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Three hours later, he completed his forty-first body forging after using eighteen strands of heavenearth profound light.
After five hours, he consumed twenty strands of heavenearth profound light to complete his forty-second body forging.
The consumption was rising at a terrifying rate.
Eight hours later, he completed the forty-third body forging with twenty-two strands of heavenearth profound light.
He had consumed sixty strands just to complete three forgings. And this number would only increase the stronger he grew.
Twelve hours later, he completed the forty-fourth body forging with twenty-four strands.
A total of twenty-eight hours had passed. He had only completed four forgings with eighty-four strands. Including what he consumed during his previous cultivation session, he had consumed almost half of what he had.
All in all, he had completed fourteen body forgings since the auction. He was quite satisfied with this growth. His physical strength had reached the level of 120,000 acupoints.
At this point, Su Yu had probably surpassed the previous Mo Duona, who was a seventh-stage Cloudbreach before his recent breakthrough. In fact, Su Yu's current physical cultivation was sixth-stage Skysoar Realm while his willpower cultivation was seventh-stage Cloudbreach Realm. He was actually similar in level to the previous pre-breakthrough Mo Duona.
And he still had a decent amount of heavenearth profound light left. But since he now needed more than twenty strands per body forging, he probably only had enough for ten forgings or even less. But it didn't matter. He still had a lot of other treasures.
Furthermore, he also had a large amount of sunmoon profound yellow liquid. He could even purchase some from the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion if needed. If he was given a thousand strands of additional heavenearth profound light, he could definitely complete his body forging. He would even have some left.
He had scammed a lot of resources through the auction, including what he needed for his future nine source qi transformations.
There were still about ten hours before the attack of the Invincibles. He could probably complete up to his forty-fifth body forging before then. He wasted no time and continued forging his body. But that was not all he did. He was doing something else as well.
Night arrived.
Once again, Su Yu tossed a bloodstained talisman out of his building.
Shortly after, a death spirit appeared. The death spirit started drawing outside, but something unexpected happened. While drawing on the signboard, the death spirit exploded.
Su Yu's eyes flickered. Moments ago, he felt a large amount of death qi entering his body from the building, but the death qi seemed to have failed to fully convert his body. The death spirit had actually exploded while trying to convert him.
Su Yu was very surprised.
What was that? Before he could think more, a second death spirit appeared. This time, it was a Mountainsea death spirit. The death spirit picked up the bloodstained talisman and started drawing on the signboard. After some time, a wave of even stronger death qi entered his body.
For some reason, Su Yu's body seemed to be very resistant toward death qi. He even had the nine spheres he had obtained from Heavendoom City on him, making the death qi's job harder. The death qi he generated through source qi reversal did not count as that was something he had produced internally, not something from external sources.
Rumble!
The Mountainsea death spirit exploded as well. Su Yu was completely dumbstruck. What the fuck? This couldn't be considered his kill, right?
This was his third bloodstained talisman. This should be the night when his conversion was completed. One only needed to toss three bloodstained talismans out to complete the conversion. It did not matter if one stopped for a few days before resuming. Thus, there shouldn't be any issues with his conversion.
The death spirit then glanced at Su Yu's heart. A slightly doubtful look appeared in its eyes, but it did not think too much about it. With a smile, it vanished. Yes. It smiled. A smiling death spirit.
Right at that moment, a voice that felt like it had arrived from the ancient past sounded beside his ear, "I will personally welcome you during your death."
Su Yu's heart thumped as he heard that.
It spoke! A speaking death spirit! This death spirit would personally welcome him during his death? What was the meaning of that? Welcome him...into the ranks of death spirits? Countless questions appeared in Su Yu's mind.
What was the strength of this death spirit? Invincible? Or a peak Sunmoon?
He started reversing the death qi in his body into source qi, but found that the reversal rate had dropped considerably. But he was still relieved to see that it was not completely irreversible.
Inside his heart, the miniature man sighed. This seemed...troublesome. All hope would be lost the moment Su Yu's reversal rate became slower than the death qi's rate of growth.
Sigh.
The miniature man felt very helpless. But this was perhaps the sole option here. This was truly an act of pursuing death for life.
When the conversion into a resident was completed, Su Yu was shocked yet again. His body was no longer being damaged by death qi. However, the death qi inside his body was still growing. He would no longer suffer from death qi no matter how long he stayed in the city.
He tried walking out without transforming into a death spirit. When the death spirits saw him, they acted as though he wasn't there. In fact, some of the weaker death spirits would even move aside from him, seemingly fearful of him. In their senses, he seemed to be even higher ranked than them in the hierarchy of death spirits.
Despite all that, Su Yu was feeling quite empty inside. Was he now...a living dead? Even though he had already thought of this scenario before, he still couldn't help feeling dispirited.
He...had become an ancient city resident. A living dead.
At that moment, every single index copy holder in the Myriad Realms was alarmed. Their index copies were shaking violently.
The name at the very top was slowly turning dim before growing bright again. But that didn't last as the name would start dimming again before long. After a few repetitions, the name finally vanished from the index.
Everyone was stunned.
Everyone was shocked.
Su Yu...was dead?
Impossible!
Never before...or to be precise, in recent centuries, no index genius had ever converted into an ancient city resident. Thus, nobody knew that one's name would leave the index after becoming a resident.
And nobody thought of that possibility. They only knew that Su Yu's name had vanished.
Mo Duona was once again at the top. There were 630 names on the index, but not one of them was Su Yu.
The various realms were shocked.
Even those at the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion were shocked. Su Yu was dead?
How? The attack had yet to start, right? How did he die?
This...was unbelievable!
