Chapter 188 - Chapter 146: An Encounter Within the Poisonous Miasma

"You found the divine inheritance?"

The Snow Empress's tone was somewhat excited.

The endless years of cultivation were all for the day one could achieve divinity.

"Yes, it should be the Life God's inheritance. But after Brother Yu and I left, that space vanished." Huo Yuhao said with a bitter smile.

If it were a fixed space, then both Mirror Hongchen and Xiao Hongchen could go there for the trial.

What a pity.

The Snow Empress felt it was a pity too.

Even though the Life God didn't fit with her, having a trial from a god would at least offer more hope.

After all, encountering a real god versus not encountering one is a completely different concept.

"Su Yu's research is too profound. I hadn't paid much attention to understanding it deeply back then, so I don't know much."

The Snow Empress shared some of Su Yu's ideas from that time.

"Origin... cohesion... rules..."

Huo Yuhao had a look of perplexity, finding it difficult to comprehend Su Yu's terminology.

"Sigh, do I have to find Brother Yu to ask?" Huo Yuhao felt a bitter frustration inside.

It's not easy to find him.

Perhaps I can only wait until I return to Mingdu to say more.

"Bing'Er, did you come to sacrifice to me this time?" The Snow Empress guessed the Ice Emperor's thoughts.

"Yes, I initially had that thought, but since you've taken form and your cultivation is progressing smoothly, I've given up on that idea." The Ice Emperor said with a wry smile.

"If Yuhao lacks a soul ring, I do have a recommendation." The Snow Empress said.

"Snow Empress, are you talking about the Ice Bear King?"

"That's right."

...

After completing the refinement of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's Bloodline Power at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye, Su Yu began a closed-door cultivation.

Apart from his daily cultivation of Soul Power and Qi Blood, he spent the rest of his time gathering spirituality.

The Blue Silver Emperor and the Thunderous Yanyu Vine were both released to help gather spirituality.

The "Spirit" rune had much improved compared to before, greatly enhancing efficiency.

Su Yu did not distribute the nurtured spirituality to the first three soul rings but instead integrated it into his battle armor.

The body of the battle armor is spiritual metal, which, despite having characteristics similar to those of a soul beast after gaining spirituality, requires lower demand for spirituality due to the nature of rare metals.

Four months passed.

Su Yu's advanced battle armor's chest armor, waistband, and wing sections reached the standard for crafting a super battle armor.

Of course, Su Yu certainly wouldn't design the most ordinary domain for himself, so the standard was far from enough.

Additionally, Su Yu was not yet a Ninth-Level Soul Guide, nor did he have experience in creating Ninth-level Soul-guiding Devices, and even the core array trace of the super battle armor hadn't been completed.

Moreover, the technology for constructing a domain on super battle armor had not yet been perfected.

"However, it's been more than a year, and the teacher should have perfected the technology for the super battle armor domain by now?"

Stopping his cultivation, Su Yu bid farewell to the numerous immortal grasses within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye, preparing to leave.

Return to Mingdu!

...

"Hmm?"

Emerging from the sea of the Green Phosphorus Seven Extremes Flower, Su Yu sensed another soul master's Soul Power fluctuations.

"Daring to act under the poisonous miasma, this person is bold indeed."

The feedback from the Soul Power fluctuation suggested it was approximately a Soul Saint.

This poisonous miasma would make even a Titled Douluo shake his head, yet a mere Soul Saint dares to be so bold?

It happened to align with Su Yu's mapped route, so he also wanted to see who it was.

...

Kuang Tie held a piece of ice crystal in his mouth, walking within the poisonous miasma, his eyes scanning everywhere to find his target.

"Rumor has it that a Medusa, over thirty thousand years old, exists within the poisonous miasma. Since I couldn't find the Seventh Soul Ring, I can't afford to miss the Eighth one."

After variation, not only did his Martial Soul experience a surge in power, but it also acquired a spirit attribute and possessed Soul Suppressing Power. If paired with Medusa's petrification ability, it would be like adding wings to a tiger.

Kuang Tie had just absorbed a thirty-thousand-year-old Great Strength Vajra Bear, achieving Soul Saint, now with Soul Power at Level 72, needing a long time before he could absorb the Eighth Soul Ring.

But this didn't prevent him from identifying his target in advance.

Medusa had been a soul beast he noticed long ago, and it was said that the Poison Douluo of ten thousand years ago possessed Medusa's Soul Bone.

Due to the poisonous miasma over the millennia, all types of soul beasts within the Sunset Forest became extinct.

However, Medusa, inherently possessing a poison attribute, might have survived amid this poisonous miasma.

Kuang Tie overheard that there was at least a thirty-thousand-year-old Medusa within the poisonous miasma.

However, due to the threats of the miasma and Medusa's inherent strength, Kuang Tie had never taken action.

Now having advanced to Soul Saint, his confidence was greatly enhanced, so he began trying to find Medusa's trace within the poisonous miasma.

The ice crystal in his mouth was something he obtained accidentally; he discovered that the ice attribute aura emitted from the ice crystal had substantial resistance against the miasma's toxins.

This further boosted his confidence in finding Medusa for his Eighth Soul Ring.

"Kuang Tie?" Su Yu approached quietly, observing Kuang Tie from not far away through spiritual power scanning.

"What is Kuang Tie doing in the poisonous miasma?"

Su Yu wasn't afraid of exposing the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye because that valley lay deep within the miasma, with the poisonous Green Phosphorus Seven Extremes Flower surrounding it protecting it fiercely.

"Who's there!"

Su Yu's spiritual power had already reached a formless state, having continuously cultivated and accumulated after that, becoming close to material form.

Yet, he still got spotted by Kuang Tie!

Since he was discovered, Su Yu decided not to hide anymore and revealed himself directly.

Kuang Tie looked at Su Yu's appearance with surprise.

So young!

A tender face, robust vitality, powerful spiritual power, and unfathomable Soul Power fluctuations.

"May I ask who you are?" Kuang Tie asked respectfully, cupping his hands.

"Su Yu. If I'm not mistaken, you should be Kuang Tie, Sect Leader of the Iron Blood Sect, right?"

"Indeed!" Kuang Tie cupped his hands, saying, "I wonder what your purpose is in this poisonous miasma, and if it's not in conflict with my own, perhaps we could search together. I came this time to find the trace of Medusa, and you?"

Though it was about his future Eighth Soul Ring and he might have guessed his purpose, Kuang Tie still explained his target willingly.

Noticing Su Yu's expression of slight surprise but no guardedness, Kuang Tie relaxed a bit.

It seemed that this Su Yu wasn't at odds with his goal.

"Brother Kuang is indeed straightforward." Su Yu didn't have plans to join forces with Kuang Tie.

He intended to leave anyway.

"My matters are already settled, so I won't disturb your search for soul beasts, Brother Kuang."

Saying so, Su Yu bypassed Kuang Tie, heading out of the poisonous miasma.

"By the way, Brother Kuang, I saw some large statues to the south of the miasma. I don't know if Medusa left them behind."

Su Yu gave a final hint before disappearing.

"Thank you!" Kuang Tie cupped his hands toward where Su Yu vanished.
