Su Yu peered inside to find a plainly dressed young woman with two daughters being driven out of the yard, her face streaked with tears, the two girls frightened and hiding behind their mother.

Inside the house, the scent of a rice dish cooked with Spirit Rice wafted out, as an irritable male cultivator cursed while eating his food.

The male cultivator’s name was Wang Hong, a seventh layer Qi Refinement cultivator, and he was quite handsome. He likely had consumed age-halting pills or Beauty Enhancement Pills to keep his youthful appearance since he looked like a man in his thirties despite being nearly sixty.

The young woman was named Xue Yingxiang, a fifth layer Qi Refinement cultivator.

She also seemed to have taken age-halting pills, because she was not even forty yet she still looked like a young girl. She was quite beautiful, and two of her features were particularly outstanding. Among all the women Su Yu had met, she was the most eye-catching.

So Su Yu took a second look.

The two girls behind her were very young, the youngest was not even ten, and the elder one was just eleven.

He had witnessed such scenes of ‘domestic violence’ many times before.

It’s said that ‘a wise judge cannot settle a family quarrel,’ and Su Yu, not wanting to meddle in others’ business, only watched briefly before returning to his own yard.

“Rent for the Spirit Fields has skyrocketed.”

“Rent in the Immortal City has skyrocketed.”

“The entry fee for the city has risen from one lower-grade Spirit Stone to two.”

Su Yu thought back to the tumultuous topics discussed recently in Baiyue Immortal City. The sudden increases in costs had caused great hardship for many low-level cultivators in the city, with complaints and grievances stirring like a pot of boiling dumplings.

The most obvious change was that the customer flow in the city’s various markets had noticeably decreased these past few days.

Yet market prices for items like pills, talismans, formations, and magic artifacts, along with their materials, had risen by ten to twenty percent.

This was not the doing of the city’s Loose Cultivators.

Instead, it was the result of major powers purchasing goods in bulk. Today, the Baiyue Immortal City’s main hall had again given Su Yu a mission list, twice as long as the previous one.

“Righteous and demon sects are battling in the Eight Demon Ridge, causing significant losses for several forces. The injured cultivators are uncountable; Baiyue Immortal City must be the same.” Su Yu remembered the situation Ke’er had described and frowned slightly, wondering when this situation would finally end.”

For him, the decreased customer traffic and sales in the city were counterbalanced by the additional orders from the main hall and the Yu Family’s new lists, which could potentially double his profit.

However, for ordinary loose cultivators, this was an unforeseen catastrophe.

Take, for example, his cursing neighbor, Old Wang.

The rental costs for the Spirit Fields suddenly surged by thirty percent; the Immortal City’s Temple was truly sucking their blood. This increase in rent alone would force many cultivators who relied on the fields for their livelihood to work all year round for the temple, essentially as unpaid laborers.

As for canceling the lease…

Unless you had prepared to leave Baiyue Immortal City, the issue wouldn’t simply be a matter of canceling the lease.

The grass isn’t always greener on the other side. After leaving Baiyue Immortal City, without any practical skills, life out there might not be any better than what they had here.

As his thoughts drifted, Su Zhi came to mind, and he couldn’t help but worry.

He had no idea how she was doing.

Could she have been involved in this Righteous and Demon Sects conflict at the Eight Demon Ridge?

“Maybe I’ll write a letter to ask.” Su Yu penned a letter, paying the Yunjian Sect a few spirit stones to have it delivered back home.

Yu Qianqing had decided to leave the Yunjian Sect. Shortly after returning to Baiyue Immortal City, she headed back to her sect. It would probably take her some time to sort out her affairs.

Upon returning to his yard, Su Yu entered the secret chamber beneath his house.

Ever since returning to the Baiyue Immortal City from the Su Family, Su Yu began collecting the materials required for advancing his magical puppet. As the core material of the dragon crocodile puppet was a mid-tier rank two, it wouldn’t be difficult for the Dao Body puppet to advance to a mid-tier rank two as well.

All it required was some time to devour and refine the materials, bit by bit.

Whish!

In the secret chamber, Su Yu invoked a mental command and summoned the

Dao Body puppet from his Dantian. After merging with the puppet spirit, the Dao Body puppet was like a nascent magical artifact that could be stored within his Dantian for nurturing.

It could even devour materials to advance.

The nascent puppet spirit could gradually improve and enhance itself by devouring materials.

Su Yu moved the Dao Body puppet to one side, and it began devouring the mineral essence and refining the minerals, little by little, that Su Yu had taken out from a Qiankun Bag.

Su Yu himself sat cross-legged, fully focused, and in solitude, he continued today’s cultivation.

He had accepted an Alchemy task from the Hall of Truth, which required him to refine five hundred second-grade lower-tier pills in half a year. All the materials were provided by the Hall of Truth, a total of five hundred portions, in the same proportion as the previous task.

Upon completion, Su Yu would be able to earn five hundred contribution points.

Plus, he would have leftover alchemy materials.

Currently, the Alchemist lineage Su Yu was cultivating was still the second-grade lower-tier Alchemist lineage that his family had bid for him. Therefore, Su Yu planned to accumulate some contribution points to see if he could exchange for a second-grade top-tier Alchemist lineage from the Hall of

Truth.

According to what he knew, the cost of a second-grade top-tier Alchemist lineage in the Hall of Truth was about one thousand five hundred contribution points.

Which was equivalent to fifteen thousand inferior Spirit Stones.

Very expensive.

But to Su Yu, it was worth it.

Because anywhere else, unless it appeared in an auction, he had no way of purchasing a second-grade top-tier Alchemist lineage.

This task given by the Hall of Truth, he could casually accumulate enough contribution points in a few years.

When the time comes, gain a free, second-grade top-tier Alchemist lineage, it would be a great bargain.

Another month later.

Yu Qianqing finally returned to Bai Yue Fairy City and joined Wutong Dan Pavilion to learn Alchemy under Su Yu. With just one furnace of five top-quality second-grade lower-tier pills, he completely won the heart of this ‘former Yunjian Sect Inner Sect Disciple’.

From then on, the round-faced, somewhat plump beauty alchemist Yu Qianqing looked at Su Yu with an extra touch of fanaticism and worship, like the most devoted fan believer.

It was difficult to refine top-quality pills. Even her former master, an Elder of the Inner Sect Dan Pavilion of Yunjian Sect who was a second-grade top-tier Alchemist could not guarantee to refine top-quality pills every time.

Not to mention, such a terrifying number as five top-quality pills in a single furnace!

But Su Yu could!

This is like a newly educated medical apprentice meeting a master healer, how could she not be convinced and serve him wholeheartedly.

Time slowly passed by.

A day, five months later.

In the secret chamber under the courtyard.

Su Yu’s body was overflowing with earth element mana, countless spiritual energy from the heavens and the earth gathered and entered his body, refined into his own mana by the Mystic Heavy Earth Technique.

As the proficiency on the panel increased for Mystic Heavy Earth Technique, it was accumulating bit by bit.

From ninety-nine point nine percent, it moved towards a hundred percent.

About two quarters of an hour later.

“Buzz! ”

Naturally, when the proficiency accumulated to a hundred percent, completing the seventh level of the Mystic Heavy Earth Technique, Su Yu’s earth element mana immediately transformed, advancing from the seventh stage of Qi Refinement to the eighth.

In just about a year, the Mystic Heavy Earth Technique had again improved.

A little over an hour later.

The fluctuations in the earth element mana on Su Yu’s body finally calmed down. He stopped cultivating, slowly opened his eyes, and exhaled a hot breath: “Hoo.”

The feeling of this breakthrough.

So comfortable.

Feeling the eighth stage of Qi Refinement earth element mana in his body, su Yu’s eyes condensed as he murmured: “With the Cultivation Technique Green Wood Year Ring Skill at the ninth stage of Qi Refinement, the speed of practicing this earth element technique is really fast!”

Green Wood Year Ring Skill, from the first level of Qi Refinement to the ninth, took nearly thirty years.

But Mystic Heavy Earth Technique, from the first stage of Qi Refinement to the eighth, only took less than three years.

Su Yu pondered: “In that case, would it be just as fast to practice other attribute techniques?”
