Chapter 1: Crossing Over into the System
After putting away the treasure sword, Huang Yu found that there were still some spiritual stones in this treasure room, but only four pieces, and they were all low-grade spiritual stones. Compared to the Huang family, the Chen family's foundation was indeed much thicker. Four pieces of low-grade spiritual stones were also a considerable wealth, compared to the Huang family, which didn't have any.
Huang Yu thought to himself, Chen Hongqiao is indeed very patient. If he were in his shoes and had such abilities, he would have probably taken action against the Huang and Su families long ago, why wait until now?
After sweeping the Chen family clean, Huang Yu left the Chen family.
As for the Su family, Huang Yu hesitated for a moment and finally decided to put it aside for now. After all, Su Tianhong was already dead, and the Su family couldn't stir up too much trouble. What he needed to do now was to go back and improve his cultivation, get familiar with the Zi Ji Sword, and also think of ways to obtain a suitable cultivation technique for himself.
……
……
"Xiao Yu, you're back? Let me take a look, are you hurt?" Zhao Wanyi came forward to greet Huang Yu as soon as he returned home, asking about his well-being.
"Auntie, it's okay, I'm fine, don't worry," Huang Yu shook his head, looking at Zhao Wanyu, he knew that Zhao Wanyu was probably worried and had been waiting here for him to return.
"It's okay, it's okay." Although Huang Yu said it was nothing, Zhao Wenyu still wasn't at ease. After checking again and confirming that he really hadn't been hurt, she finally let out a sigh of relief and a faint smile appeared on her face. "Little Yu, are you hungry? I'll go make your favorite braised lion's head for you."
Huang Yu heard this and indeed felt a bit hungry, so he nodded his head.
After dinner, Huang Yu came to the practice room.
Turned on the system.
At this time, his own level had already been upgraded to 12th grade.
Huang Yu
Level: 12 (1003/3000)
Cultivation: Innate Six Layers
Blood Volume: 300
Lucky: 5
School: None
Life energy: 1935
Equipment: Fruit Knife (Ordinary Extreme), Wild Wolf Wrist Guard (Ordinary Lower), Wild Wolf Soft Armor (Ordinary Upper), Black Flame Chest Guard (Human Middle), Shadow Dagger (Human Lower), Purple Light Ring (Storage Ring, Attribute Unknown), Purple Pole Sword (Human Extreme)
Skills: Flying Dagger Technique (Human Rank Lower Grade can be upgraded), Gathering Technique (Common Rank Lower Grade can be upgraded), Exploration Technique (Common Rank Lower Grade can be upgraded), Golden Ancient Gaze Technique (Heavenly Rank Lower Grade) Treading Wind Pursuit (Human Rank Lower Grade)
The level upgrade increased his health by 100, and more excitingly, the attack power boost from the Purple Extreme Sword instantly raised his attack power by 200, reaching 352. With such attack power, he could easily kill a First Heaven Round Completion cultivator. At this point, if he were to fight Su Tianhong again, he could easily crush him. However, if he encountered Chen Hongqiao, he would still have no choice but to flee, as Chen Hongqiao was already a strong expert in the Human Infant Realm, far surpassing the Yuan Dan Realm. Even with the Purple Extreme Sword in hand, he could only barely hold his own against mid-stage Yuan Dan Realm cultivators.
There are still 1935 life energies left, which can allow one's cultivation to advance two more levels.
When Huang Yu was about to upgrade his cultivation, Lulu appeared.
Lu Lu stomped her foot and hastily said, "Master, don't rush to increase your cultivation."
"Why?" Huang Yu was somewhat puzzled, but he also knew that Lu Lu wouldn't harm herself.
"Master forgot, there are still three Yuan Dan that haven't been used yet?" Lulu explained, "If Master uses the Yuan Dan first to make his physical body stronger and his foundation more solid before increasing his cultivation, it will be better."
Huang Yu heard this and slapped his forehead, laughing: "Lu Lu, thank you so much! If it wasn't for your reminder, I would have forgotten that there were still three Pei Yuan Dan left."
Pei Yuandan has the effect of consolidating the foundation, and in order to improve his cultivation, he suddenly rose from the Qi Refining Realm to the Sixth Layer of Xiantian in such a short period of time. The foundation is indeed not solid enough, which is also a gap between him and Huang Yu. A weak foundation will hinder future development, which Huang Yu also understands. However, although Huang Yu has thought about making his foundation more solid, he hasn't found a shortcut, and feels quite helpless.
At that time, Huang Yu was very happy to get the Peiyuan Dan, but due to the timing, he didn't take it immediately. Later, after defeating Su Tianying and Chen Jia, he gained a lot of experience points and life energy, but was too excited and forgot about the Peiyuan Dan's existence. It wasn't until Lu Lu reminded him that Huang Yu remembered it again.
He stretched out his hand and took out a Pei Yuan Dan from the purple light ring.
Three Yuan Dan, one is enough for himself. The effect of Yuan Dan is best when used for the first time, and the effect will be halved with each subsequent use. Therefore, if continuous use is desired, the effect will be much worse, which is a waste. So, Huang Yu decided to take one, and give the other two to Huang Daishi and Zhao Wannier respectively.
He sat down cross-legged and poured out a Yuan Yuan Dan pill.
After taking the medicine, Huang Yu only felt a surge of medicinal power, impacting his entire body.
The power of this medicine is indeed vigorous, but it feels very gentle, not as violent as Huang Yu thought. No wonder, Peiyuan Dan is not only suitable for cultivators, but also has a great effect on ordinary people who do not cultivate. The difference between the two is just how much of the medicinal power can be absorbed.
Under the effect of Peiyuan Dan's medicinal power, Huang Yu felt that his body was being constantly strengthened, with some impurities being continuously removed.
The changes in the body are enormous.
The physical strength is constantly increasing, and the physique is constantly changing.
It wasn't until after a long while that all of the medicinal properties had been fully absorbed, and only then did Huang Yu finally open his eyes.
His entire body was covered in a dark substance, emitting a pungent smell that made Huang Yu's eyebrows furrow.
"Someone, get me some hot water."
After walking out of the training room and having a warm bath prepared for him, Huang Yu felt his entire body relax, with his strength increasing by nearly double.
Back in his training room, Huang Yu prepared to increase his cultivation.
"Ding, has the player leveled up?"
"Promotion."
"Ding, congratulations player, cultivation has been upgraded, reaching Xiantian 7th layer, consuming 700 life energy points."
"Ding, congratulations player, cultivation has been upgraded, reaching Xiantian 8th layer, consuming 800 life energy points."
Originally, in 1935, his life force was suddenly consumed by another 1500 points, leaving only 435 points. In a short period of time, it's basically impossible to make his cultivation rise by one major realm. After all, from the Eighth Layer of the Innate Realm to the First Layer of the Yuan Dan Realm, the required life force is not just a small amount.
Huang Yu
Level: 12 (1003/3000)
Cultivation: Innate Eight Layers
Blood Volume: 400
Lucky: 5
School: None
Life Energy: 435
Equipment: Fruit Knife (Ordinary Extreme), Wild Wolf Wrist Guard (Ordinary Lower), Wild Wolf Soft Armor (Ordinary Upper), Black Flame Chest Guard (Human Middle), Shadow Dagger (Human Lower), Purple Light Ring (Storage Ring, Attribute Unknown), Purple Pole Sword (Human Extreme)
Skills: Flying Dagger Technique (Human Rank Lower Grade can be upgraded), Gathering Technique (Common Rank Lower Grade can be upgraded), Exploration Technique (Common Rank Lower Grade can be upgraded), Golden Ancient Eye Technique (Heavenly Rank Lower Grade), Treading Wind Pursuit (Human Rank Lower Grade)
Viewing the attributes, after taking the Peiyuan Dan, the overall strength of the entire person has increased significantly. Blood volume and combat power have both been enhanced. With cultivation reaching Xiantian 8th layer, one's attack power is now only a little short of 400.
After his cultivation improved, Huang Yu opened his eyes, and a ray of essence flashed by.
"Early on, it was not bad, not bad. Now with my own strength, if I use the Purple Extreme Sword, killing a Yuan Dan realm early-stage cultivator should be no problem at all. As for mid-Yuan Dan realm, I can hold my ground, but to kill them, it's still not that simple and easy."
Assessing my own strength, the weakest is dodging. Although the skill of Treading Wind Pursuit is quite good, after all, Treading Wind Pursuit also has limitations, and its development space is not large.
The key is that what I lack most now is a suitable technique, if I can get a suitable technique, my strength should increase greatly.
Gongfa, suitable gongfa, how can it be obtained?
I don't have any Gongfa right now, of course, there is a secret method, but it's just the Golden Ancient Eye Technique. Although this is a Heavenly Tier secret method, it's not a Gongfa after all, and it can't be used to cultivate True Qi. Moreover, this Golden Ancient Eye Technique is only at the entry level right now, and if I want to improve, I still need to rely on my own cultivation. If my cultivation doesn't progress, then this eye technique won't be able to advance either.
"Lulu, is there a way for me to acquire a skill?" Huang Yu said.
"The master can exchange it, and use spiritual stones to exchange." Lulu smiled, her sweet voice appearing in Huang Yu's ears.
"Exchange?"
Huang Yu had thought about exchanging, although after the exchange function was enabled, Huang Yu only checked it once, but he felt a chill in his heart, because although the system provided an exchange function, those things that could be exchanged were extremely expensive, especially the part about the elixir and medicine for cultivation.
A very ordinary kung fu, just a middle-grade kung fu in the human stage, requires 50,000 units of life energy.
That's not a small number, 10,000 points, equivalent to 136 years of life, equivalent to 100 pieces of low-grade spirit stone, it's not worth it at all.
The cultivation technique one needs, can't be just a mid-grade human-tier, at the very least it should be an earth-tier technique. As for heaven-tier techniques, don't even think about it, there are hardly any on the entire continent. Even if there's something that can be exchanged within the system, the price of exchange is simply not something one can afford to pay.
What a huge pit.
"Lulu, don't joke around. Although there are skills in the system that can be exchanged, I'm so poor right now, where would I get that many life and spirit stones to exchange?" Huang Yu said with a helpless bitter smile.
I have a total of thirty mid-grade spirit stones, after consuming ten, plus the four low-grade spirit stones I got from the Su family, in total I only have twenty mid-grade spirit stones and four low-grade spirit stones. The spirit stones are for my own cultivation, if I use them to exchange for things, it would be a loss.
