Chapter 192 - 192: [DD2]: 192

Credits: Jason At the moment when the two streams of energy converged, the carving knife formed from Life Gold emitted a brilliant green light. A surge of intensely concentrated vitality flowed through Su Yu's forehead and into his body. In the blink of an eye, Su Yu's entire body was suffused with a vibrant green hue, while his mental sea was enveloped in an intense green glow. From the depths of his soul to every cell in his body, an unprecedented sense of comfort surged through him. Su Yu absorbed the seemingly endless life force like a sponge. As the powerful vitality washed over him, he felt profound benefits coursing through his body—his flesh, skin, organs, meridians, and even bones underwent significant improvement. His bones became noticeably sturdier, and his already unimpeded meridians grew tougher and more expansive. His skin became smoother and more resilient, to the point that even a sharp blade would struggle to pierce it. Within his flesh, streams of vitality accumulated, enhancing his muscles, purifying his blood, and vastly improving his healing capabilities. The life force swept through every corner of his body, eliminating impurities and transforming him entirely. It was nothing short of a rebirth. It was clear that after this process, Su Yu's physical attributes had reached new heights. Su Yu closed his eyes slightly, savoring the transformation brought by the Life Gold. This pure life force was an unparalleled tonic. Not only did it reshape his body, but it also sharpened his mind to an unprecedented clarity. Problems that had long troubled him now seemed effortlessly solvable. As Su Yu enjoyed the experience, he suddenly sensed a sharp energy. In the next moment, the carving knife formed from Life Gold embedded itself directly into his forehead. The rich vitality fully flooded into his mental sea, which transformed into a green ocean and began expanding rapidly. The expansion of the mental sea itself signified a significant increase in spiritual power. At the same time, two of the source light clusters sealed by Gu Yuena within his mental sea shattered. A vast amount of spiritual essence combined with the boundless vitality, caused Su Yu's spiritual power to soar. The waves in his mental sea surged, and his spiritual strength rose in tandem. This transformation lasted an entire day. When Su Yu finally woke up, it was already the morning of the next day. He habitually recorded his progress before examining the changes in himself. On his forehead, there seemed to be a third eye—a green orb embedded within his brow. From this orb, streams of vitality continuously flowed into every part of his body. Su Yu understood that this orb was the Life Gold. With it residing in his secondary mental sea, its vitality would constantly temper his body. Over time, his physical strength would reach unimaginable levels. Closing his eyes to observe internally, Su Yu entered his mental sea. Now entirely green, his mental sea had expanded nearly twofold. The once-faint figure of the Skydream Iceworm was now much clearer, showing it too had greatly benefited. Looking upward, Su Yu noticed that the ten light clusters from before had dwindled to six. He had consumed two clusters previously, and now another two had been used. Despite the consumption of so much essence, Su Yu's spiritual power surged tremendously. Before this transformation, Su Yu's spiritual power had just reached the low stage of the Spirit Abyss Realm. Now, it had advanced to the high stage of the Spirit Abyss Realm. Checking his information panel, Su Yu noted that his spiritual power had reached 15,690—solidly in the high stage of the Spirit Abyss Realm. The Spirit Abyss Realm has the following ranges: 5,000–10,000: Low stage 10,000–15,000: Mid-stage 15,000–18,000: High stage 18,000–20,000+: Peak stage Typically, Spirit Abyss Realm spiritual power is the domain of Titled Douluo-level individuals. Only extraordinarily talented soul masters achieved this level before becoming Titled Douluo, such as Su Yu and Zhang Lexuan. Before Su Yu's transformation, Zhang Lexuan had slightly stronger spiritual power, around 8,000, but she now lagged far behind him. Currently, Su Yu's spiritual strength at the high stage of the Spirit Abyss Realm was comparable to that of a Super Douluo like Yan Shaozhe. Super Douluo generally have spiritual power ranging from the high stage to the peak of the Spirit Abyss Realm. Only the most exceptional individuals, nearing level 98, might reach the Spirit Domain Realm. However, such cases are rare—figures like Xuan Zi do not meet this level, though Mu Wu's spiritual power solidly belongs to the Spirit Domain Realm. The Spirit Domain Realm is typically the domain of Ultimate Douluo. While Su Yu didn't rely heavily on spiritual power in combat, having such immense strength in this area added a valuable trump card. His spiritual power enabled his third soul skill, Ice Emperor's Light, to become even more formidable. Driven by Super Douluo-level spiritual power, its potential was terrifying—certainly enough to deal with Soul Douluo-level opponents, and perhaps even higher. Though confident, Su Yu still couldn't guarantee its absolute effectiveness. After all, Su Yu had never tested the power of Ice Emperor's Light, but he estimated that it wouldn't disappoint. In the original story, Huo Yuhao's spiritual power at this stage was inferior to his, yet Huo Yuhao could still use it to pull off impressive feats. There was no reason for Su Yu to be weaker. Perhaps his only shortcoming was the limited number of spiritual abilities he possessed. Currently, his sole option was Ice Emperor's Light. Wait, there was also necromancy. Su Yu's eyes lit up. With his powerful spiritual strength, wouldn't learning necromancy be a perfect fit? He could sense that Electrolux's consciousness was now residing in his third eye. It seemed that after fusing with the Life Gold, Electrolux had also gained significant benefits. As Su Yu's thoughts swirled, Electrolux's voice gradually emerged. "Su Yu, I can sense your intentions. With your current level of spiritual power, you have reached a threshold and are now qualified to inherit my necromancy." "However, before passing it on, I must ask once more: are you truly ready?" "Senior, I believe I am ready," Su Yu replied calmly without hesitation. "Very well. I will now teach you some foundational necromancy. Practice diligently and do not tarnish the reputation of a Necromantic Holy God." As he finished speaking, Electrolux transmitted foundational necromancy techniques directly to Su Yu. Su Yu carefully absorbed and processed the knowledge. Necromancy, Electrolux's crowning achievement, was indeed vast and profound. "For now, I must fully integrate with the Eye of Life and cannot spare the focus to guide you. Practice on your own for the time being, and I will instruct you further when I am able." "One more thing: now that the Life Gold has become the Eye of Life, you can draw upon a portion of its power at any time. When you need it, simply channel your thoughts into the mental eye, and you will be able to use it." Sёarᴄh the NôvelFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "That's all for now. I must return to slumber." With that, Electrolux's voice faded completely, and he entered a dormant state. Su Yu also withdrew his consciousness from his mental sea. Raising a hand to touch his forehead, Su Yu found it smooth—there was no sign of a third eye. However, he could feel the presence of the Eye of Life. Focusing his mind, the third eye emerged on his forehead. A sharp blade of light shot out, revealing the edge of the Life Gold carving knife. "Since it has been purified, calling it the Devouring Spirit Blade is no longer appropriate. From now on, you'll be the Life Spirit Carving Knife." Su Yu now possessed two top-tier carving knives. Both were rare treasures that would likely astonish even someone like Jing Hongchen. Speaking of Jing Hongchen, Su Yu frowned. This was an issue that needed to be addressed. At the very least, Jing Hongchen had to be warned to distance himself from the Holy Spirit Cult. Su Yu had no intention of accidentally eliminating Jing Hongchen while purging the sect's remnants in the future. Jing Hongchen still had a chance to sever ties with the Holy Spirit Cult, and Su Yu held him in high regard. Moreover, due to Meng Hongchen's connection, Su Yu was even less inclined to take drastic measures against him. Even for Meng Hongchen's sake, Su Yu had to persuade Jing Hongchen to take a different path. But before that, Su Yu decided to destroy the Holy Spirit Cult's stronghold in Radiant City. He needed an outlet for his current anger, and this would serve nicely. Suppressing his thoughts, the Eye of Life vanished once more. Su Yu picked up his Spirit Headband, hesitated for a long time, but ultimately decided not to wear it again. With his frequent use of the Eye of Life in the future and his spiritual power now at the high stage of the Spirit Abyss Realm, the headband's utility had diminished significantly. Placing his hands behind his back, Su Yu left his private chamber. Mu Wu's figure appeared, followed shortly by Feng Luo, who approached to greet him. "Greetings, Young Master." Su Yu nodded. "You know the location of the Holy Spirit Cult's stronghold in Radiant, correct?" "Yes, Young Master. I know it well," Feng Luo replied promptly. "Good. Take a few men. I'm going to raze that place." "Yes, Young Master!" Feng Luo didn't hesitate. He immediately summoned four Soul Sage to accompany Su Yu to the known location of the stronghold. They moved swiftly, the wind whistling past them. Radiant City was vast, and even at their speed, it took nearly half an hour to reach their destination. It was an unassuming courtyard with black roofing. "Young Master, this is the place." Su Yu nodded, striding to the courtyard's entrance and kicking the door open without hesitation. Caution? There was no need for that. It was just a branch stronghold—not worth being overly careful about. "Who's there?" As the door burst open, several black-robed individuals rushed out. Feng Luo immediately activated his martial soul, and an intense chill froze the intruders in place. Su Yu casually struck each one with a slap, shattering them entirely, before stepping into the courtyard. The yard was filled with various vine-like plants, likely intended to obscure visibility. Su Yu and his group followed a narrow path, heading straight toward the central black-domed structure. The door was open, but as soon as they entered, a group of white-robed individuals rushed out to confront them. Each of them wore a hood, completely obscuring their faces. Su Yu wasted no time. He pulled out the Blue Ancient Spear and charged into the crowd. With an overwhelming strength exceeding sixty thousand pounds, he unleashed his full power. Anyone he so much as grazed was left with shattered bones and torn tendons, dying on the spot. It didn't matter if they were Soul Elders or Soul Kings; one spear strike was enough to annihilate them. In the lair of these evil soul masters, Su Yu showed no restraint, unlike his behavior in the outside world. Every move he made was a lethal strike. The white-robed guards stationed outside didn't even have time to sound the alarm before being dealt with like vegetables before a blade. The interior of the building appeared ordinary, resembling a regular household. However, Su Yu's keen spiritual power had already detected something amiss. He slapped a hand down on a table, revealing a hidden passage on its side. Confident in his skills, Su Yu took the lead into the passage, with Feng Luo and the others hastily following. Emerging from the passage, they entered a spacious hall spanning at least 300 square meters. The hall was guarded by numerous people. In the center stood a table where two white-robed individuals were feasting. As soon as Su Yu and his group burst in, the guards rushed to attack. "An intruder! Sound the alarm!" The feasting Holy Spirit Cult members immediately realized something was wrong. They exchanged a glance before joining the fray. Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black—six soul rings shone brilliantly. As their martial souls activated, the two transformed into three-meter-tall black skeletons with glowing green spiritual flames in their eyes. "Evil soul masters!" Su Yu's eyes flashed coldly. He thrust his spear forward, and countless spear shadows swirled like a dragon, killing every white-robed guard who charged at him. At the same time, he activated the Ice Emperor's Possession. His first soul ring flared twice in quick succession, freezing the two massive black skeletons almost simultaneously. Then Su Yu leaped back and unleashed the Ice Explosion Technique. The two black skeletons exploded simultaneously, obliterating every white-robed figure in the hall. Not a single corpse remained. With the combination of Ice Emperor's Decree and Ice Explosion Technique, Su Yu instantly wiped out two Soul Emperor-level evil soul masters along with all the other white-robed guards. It was worth noting that evil soul masters were notoriously difficult to deal with. Even ordinary Soul Sage would struggle against a Soul Emperor-level evil soul master. But under Su Yu's hand, they were instantly killed. This demonstrated the terrifying power of the combination technique using Ice Emperor's Decree and Ice Explosion Technique—capable of instantly killing anyone within two levels of himself. The explosions from the two Soul Emperors were so powerful that they shook the entire structure. Had the hall not been specially reinforced for durability, it would have collapsed entirely. Even after destroying their physical bodies, Su Yu did not relax. Two dragon horns emerged from the top of his head. The horns, a platinum color, exuded a mysterious and noble aura. Blue lightning crackled on the horns, and with a sharp buzz, it shot outward. When dealing with evil soul masters, destroying their physical bodies wasn't enough. To truly eliminate them, their very souls had to be extinguished.
