After all, that terrifying spiritual cultivation, if truly retaliated, the entire Sun and Moon Empire could indeed suffer severe damage.
The deterrent force of the Douluo Three Kingdoms might not be as sufficient as one Evil Emperor.
Therefore, the targets for the hunt must be carefully selected.
"I want to check the information on the Evil Eye Race."
Within the Evil Eye Race, the Evil Emperor has a direct lineage, which must not be touched, and besides the Evil Emperor's direct lineage, there are also two Evil Eye Tyrants purely with the spirit attribute that have reached ten thousand years.
Kong Deming needs to check the information on these two.
Likewise, he also needs to check the information on Evil Eye Tyrants of other attributes. After all, the territories of purely spirit-attributed Evil Eye Tyrants are too close to the Evil Emperor, making them difficult to hunt, not necessarily successful.
"In that case, teacher, please take the senior brother to the Evil Demon Forest to search for targets while I make a trip to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye to retrieve the Holy Soul Grass."
...
With the teacher taking action, Su Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
Honestly, the frequency of hunting down Evil Eye Tyrants has been somewhat high recently, it's probably best not to target them after this one.
Especially those of ten thousand years.
The Evil Emperor's wrath could doom half of the Sun and Moon Continent.
Of course, once I'm strong enough, none of this will be of concern.
As for what Huo Yuhao wants to do about the Evil Eye Tyrant's Soul Ring?
Hold on.
Don't think of hunting two Evil Eye Tyrants, leave the ninth ring to him, that's already the limit.
Wait until you can take on the Evil Emperor solo, Huo Yuhao can go hunt the Evil Emperor's Soul Ring himself.
...
On the path at full speed.
Ten days later, Su Yu arrived at Sunset Forest.
Entering the poisonous miasma, Su Yu sensed Kuang Tie's soul power fluctuation.
"This guy, still looking for Medusa's whereabouts?"
No.
Su Yu felt Kuang Tie's soul power fluctuation slightly stronger, indicating he must have been cultivating earnestly.
"Sect Leader Kuang, still looking for Medusa?"
Upon sensing Su Yu's approach, Kuang Tie showed a wary demeanor, but seeing Su Yu's true self, he sighed in relief.
"I'm just fascinated by what exists within this poisonous miasma." He chuckled, "By the way, I owe you gratitude for your guidance last time; without it, who knows how much effort I'd still waste to find Medusa's trail."
Exploring the poisonous miasma is inherently perilous; even with the ice crystal in his mouth barely warding off most of the toxic intrusion, Kuang Tie had to make trips out periodically to purge the remaining poison from his body.
Su Yu's guidance back then sure was a tremendous help to him.
"I just happened to know."
"You seem so knowledgeable about this poisonous miasma's distribution; are you exploring its mysteries too?" Kuang Tie probed.
Having occupied the old Tang Sect premises, he naturally acquired some records of the Tang Sect and vaguely knows there's valuable stuff within the miasma of Sunset Forest.
Soul Masters intrigued by the secrets within the poisonous miasma have always existed, but most are overconfident and few can truly traverse it safely.
Witnessing Su Yu's detailed understanding of the miasma's distribution piqued Kuang Tie's curiosity about whether he had uncovered something.
"Just using the toxins here to temper the physique." Su Yu casually gave an excuse.
Kuang Tie, hearing Su Yu's excuse, gasped.
How bold.
Then noticed the poisonous air fails to penetrate Su Yu's skin.
Even utilizing the poisonous miasma toxins to refine the body to this extent.
Already achieved considerable success.
...
Kuang Tie invited Su Yu to visit Iron Blood Sect, but Su Yu didn't have time and politely declined.
"Next time I have a chance, I'll definitely visit the former Tang Sect site."
"In that case, Brother Su, I'll look forward to your visit."
Watching the direction of Su Yu's departure, Kuang Tie wished to explore.
But the poisonous air becomes stronger in that direction.
Going further, he couldn't endure it.
He shook his head and turned in another direction.
Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye.
Outside the valley, Su Yu didn't enter directly.
"This wave..."
Qi and Blood Power.
Su Yu sneakily moved around the valley to the backside.
On the valley's backside, the seven-colored toxic air of Green Phosphorus Seven Extremes Flower still lingered, but at a much lower concentration.
Su Yu found two sturdy men, bare-chested, sitting cross-legged drawing in the toxic air to cultivate.
"Using toxic air for body refinement?"
Wow, more authentic than my past pretense.
No, not like, they're truly refining with toxins.
"Using Qi and Blood Power for body refinement?"
Such concentrated Qi and Blood Power definitely signifies disciples of the Essence Sect.
"Poison Must Die and Poison Undying both possess exceptional poison skills; though their Martial Souls are Essence, they've honed their poison skills to great power, indicating this poisonous miasma holds the key."
Two Soul Fighter Level Essence Sect Soul Fighters barely penetrated the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye's backside, relying on the diluted toxins of the Green Phosphorus Seven Extremes Flower for body refinement.
"No, definitely using external aids to barely endure this place."
Previously at Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye, Su Yu hadn't found Essence Sect Soul Masters.
If Essence Sect Soul Masters at the Soul Fighter level could resist toxins here, long-term retreat would surely occur.
Indeed, after three hours of observation, Su Yu watched the Essence Sect Soul Masters consume a pill radiating intense medicinal fragrance.
...
The two Essence Sect Soul Masters sustained only half a day before depleting all their elixir, forced to leave.
During this period, Su Yu gleaned some insights from their cultivation.
"Qi Blood Infusion."
Vast Qi and Blood Power consistently flushed through flesh and blood.
Suddenly, Su Yu triggered a burst of Qi and Blood Power.
Whoosh!
Injury within Su Yu's body, replenished by intense Life Force.
"Wrong proportion."
He kept adjusting the proportion of burst Qi and Blood Power, using it to stimulate flesh, while allowing the rest to merge into flesh accelerating the cultivation effect.
Whoosh!
"Wrong proportion again."
Let's do it again!
Su Yu, with strong Life Force, could forcefully explore even without Essence Sect's experiences and guidance.
An hour on, he found a safe burst proportion interval.
Three more hours and Su Yu identified the most effective proportion for maximizing the efficiency of burst Qi and Blood Power.
"Efficiency is ten times higher than simply flushing with Qi and Blood Power."
However, it does use more Qi and Blood Power.
Yet for refining flesh and blood origins the effect is significant, without higher quality Bloodline Power continual improvements in personal flesh and blood origins are attainable.
Just like Soul Power cultivation and enhancements from Soul Rings.
...
After discovering more efficient Qi Blood cultivation techniques, Su Yu felt delighted.
"Su Yu, you've come again."
The Fragrant Illusion Immortal Grade wiggled, stretching lazily.
"This time I want to take Holy Soul Grass."
"Oh dear, Su Yu, you've already taken plenty of Immortal Grass." The Fragrant Illusion Immortal Grade tallied Su Yu's take, nearing the limit mentioned by that person.
Though he never seriously relayed this point to Su Yu, it should have been in the book.
"Anyway, you can't resist, and no one will blame you." Su Yu chuckled.
The Fragrant Illusion Immortal Grade suddenly felt sorrowful.
Yes, they're all plant-type soul beasts, not strong enough, unable to guard here.
Even Jiaojiao couldn't defeat this guy.
Sigh.
The spirituality of the Holy Soul Grass is the key, allowing resurrection after reaching a certain stage.
The soul detaches from the original body to reconfigure a new essence.
In the environment of Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye, the risks of this process are greatly reduced.
But threats still exist.
Thus the Holy Soul Grass hasn't undergone rebirth.
However, now that Su Yu requires it while preserving harmony, it will undergo a resurrection.
With Su Yu's Ultimate Life assisting, danger is practically eliminated.
Moreover, Su Yu's Sixth Soul Skill enhances the rapid growth of the Holy Soul Grass's new essence.
"Wait, don't make my growth too rapid."
