Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 517: Completed Cultivation Method (1)

Mental Tempering Garden.

Su Yu did not bother trying to hide his whereabouts. While the sky was still bright, he went straight to Zhou Hao's residence.

On the way, he met some familiar students and exchanged some simple greetings with them. He was still as friendly as ever, acting as though the recent rumors had not affected him at all.

When some people noticed Su Yu knocking on Zhou Hao's door, they grew suspicious. Had these two joined hands? They had cooperated not long ago. These two had probably reached an agreement before the tournament for the slots. After all, they wouldn't have worked so well together during the fight against Zhan Hai.

They had fought each other in a bitter match during their first match. But they were able to join hands right after that? These two were truly hard to understand.

...

The others had no idea what Su Yu was thinking, nor would he try to explain himself to everyone. They could think what they want.

As for Zhou Hao, he was even less concerned about the thoughts of others. When he opened the door and saw Su Yu, he frowned.

He took a step backward and sniffed at the air for a bit before saying, "You killed someone."

Su Yu raised his brow. Was this person a dog or something?

"No. I didn't. I only got some blood splashed on me recently."

How many days had it been? How was this fellow still able to sense it? His senses were way too sensitive. Zhou Hao did not argue. Since Su Yu was denying it, so be it.

"Do you have a business here?"

"Yeah."

Zhou Hao said nothing and walked back into the building. Su Yu followed inside. He didn't really care if anyone saw him entering Zhou Hao's residence.

"Would your teacher punish you for seeing me? He will probably find out since we're doing it so openly."

Zhou Hao sat down and gazed at Su Yu before nonchalantly saying, "My teacher is a lot more tolerant than you think."

"I find that hard to believe."

Zhou Hao did not bother saying more. If Su Yu refused to believe him, so be it. Xia Yuwen and Su Yu were enemies. It was normal for Su Yu to view Xia Yuwen as a terrible person. But Zhou Hao personally thought that Xia Yuwen was a decent person. They both had different points of view so he was not interested in changing Su Yu's mind.

"Why are you here?"

Zhou Hao was quite speechless to see Su Yu sitting down before pouring himself a cup of tea. They weren't that close. And this wasn't his home. Had he forgotten?

After pouring himself a cup of tea, Su Yu wasted no time and said, "Do you want to become a warrior or a cultural researcher?"

"It doesn't matter. I only need strength."

That was Zhou Hao's answer.

Su Yu nodded, "Which of the two paths do you think can help you grow rapidly?"

"The path of warriors."

"Do you want to enter the Infinite Strength Realm?"

Zhou Hao looked at Su Yu and gloomily said, "With the Thousand Mountain Art, I can't fuse my acupoints. But it doesn't matter. I am opening the acupoints of the War God Art. I already have 168 acupoints. I won't take long to finish opening the acupoints of the War God Art."

Su Yu was quite surprised. He asked, "You opened 24 new acupoints?"

They had first fought about a month ago. This fellow had actually opened 24 new acupoints since then. On average, he was opening an acupoint every two days.

"Yeah."

"You're trying to enter the Infinite Strength Realm with the War God Art?"

"Yes."

"The War God Art has 108 acupoints and a fusion of only 12 acupoints to enter the Infinite Strength Realm. Don't you think that it's too weak?"

Zhou Hao frowned and said, "No. The number of acupoints fused does not determine one's strength."

"With more acupoints fused, you will have a better foundation. Since you're someone capable of fusing more acupoints, why settle with a weaker option?"

Zhou Hao felt somewhat gloomy. He said, "But I can't fuse any acupoints with the Thousand Mountain Art. And the only other heaven-grade cultivation method my teacher knows is the Sky Sundering Saber, but that's not something he can teach. He does not have the Xia Family's permission."

It was that simple. Did Su Yu understand?

Su Yu started inciting, "Stop joking. Your teacher definitely knows other heaven-grade cultivation methods. He's simply unwilling to teach you. If even someone like me has a few of them, how can a Cloudbreach of the Xia Family not have more heaven-grade cultivation methods?"

"..."

Zhou Hao stared at Su Yu without saying anything. He did not like to talk, but he wasn't an idiot. This was a very obvious attempt to incite disharmony between him and his teacher.

Su Yu smiled, "Don't look at me like this. Your teacher is my enemy. Isn't it normal for me to talk badly about him?"

He moved on and said, "Let's get to the point. I'm here to get your help in testing a new cultivation method. With this cultivation method, you can even fuse the Thousand Mountain Art's acupoints. There is no need to doubt the effect of this cultivation method. The circulation part of this method is probably fine, but it is still experimental. We have not tried it on a human body yet. If you agree, you will be the first human to use it."

Before Zhou Hao could say anything, Su Yu, "I am certain that you will agree. Thus, I need to lay out my terms. Firstly, you are not allowed to teach anyone this cultivation method. Secondly, you need to agree to test a second cultivation method if you agree to this test. Thirdly, you can't use this cultivation method against me, my friends, or those close to me. If you agree, you can get this cultivation method. If not, forget it."

Zhou Hao stayed silent.

After a while, he said, "I can agree to the first and second terms. As for the third term, if my teacher tells me to make a move against you..."

Su Yu smiled, "Sure. We'll change it. You can only act against me. I'm not afraid of that. I'll be blunt. You're not enough against me. Since you're aware that I had just killed some people, you should be aware of the identities of the ones I had killed. If you wish to seek death, I won't stop you."

After a short silence, Zhou Hao nodded in agreement. Su Yu found the promise of a person like Zhou Hao to be believable. This person was ruthless and fearless, but he lacked shamelessness.

Of course, if all this was an act by Zhou Hao, then Su Yu could only admit defeat. It was only one cultivation method. If it was really leaked...so what?

Su Yu couldn't be bothered to say more. He looked around and said, "This place is not safe. Let's talk at my research center. I don't want anyone to eavesdrop on our conversation."

"Sure."

Zhou Hao stood up, not bothering to even ask why his place wasn't safe. He also didn't bother to ask about the efficacy of the cultivation method and the potential backlash he could suffer when testing it.

If he gained the ability to fuse his acupoints, he would be able to speedily increase his strength and enter the Infinite Strength Realm. If he could make his advancement with the powerful Thousand Mountain Art, he would be stronger than even those cultivating heaven-grade cultivation methods.

...

Before long, the two walked out of the building together. They encountered others on their way, but Zhou Hao did not care. He followed silently behind Su Yu.

Su Yu himself was not too bothered as he joked, "Your teacher is probably already aware of this by now. Maybe he's plotting your death right this moment."

Zhou Hao stayed silent.

"Boring. Whatever. What's your teacher's communicator number?"

"Why?"

"Just give me the number. Am I supposed to kill him through a communicator or something?"

"..."

Zhou Hao had nothing to say. He gave the number. Su Yu took out his communicator and called the number.

An overcast voice answered, "Who is this?"

"Hello, Teacher. I'm Su Yu."

"..."

After a short pause, Xia Yuwen asked, "Yes?"

"The Source Soul Research Center has developed a cultivation method capable of assisting with acupoint fusion. We might even be able to allow those cultivating the Thousand Mountain Art to fuse their acupoints. I am planning to test this out on Zhou Hao. But before I start, you need to pay us 5,000 merit points to cover a part of the expenses for the test. Additionally, Zhou Hao will not be allowed to teach anyone what he learns from us. I need your agreement."

Xia Yuwen snorted coldly, "You have a big appetite."

Su Yu said, "Teacher, it's really not that big. If Zhou Hao really manages to enter the Infinite Strength Realm with the Thousand Mountain Art, you know how strong he can be. At the ninth-stage Infinite Strength Realm, the current top 100 students, such as Di Feng, would be nothing before him. Zhou Hao would be able to kill someone like that with two or three punches."

"Consider this as well. Your current reputation is quite bad for holding back your own student. An expert cultivator wishing to be the next prefect is so selfish that he doesn't even care about his own student. Do you really think that you can gain the support from the people of Great Xia?

"Teacher, look further. Even if you're an Invincible, that alone wouldn't be enough for you to gain followers. No matter how strong you are, there are plenty of Invincibles around. Why should I follow you? If you really manage to become the prefect, I can simply leave Great Xia. A talented individual will be welcomed everywhere. That is what many people think. Are you going to kill all the talented individuals who are refusing to bow? Can even Invincibles do as they wish?

"Currently, your student is stuck at the Great Strength Realm. He might even be forced to seek his advancement with the War God Art. That is a waste of time and will also reduce his strength and potential. Teacher, for 5,000 merit points, you will get an expert who can fight many battles for you in the future. Is this not worth the investment?"

"..."

Xia Yuwen stayed silent for a while. Finally, he said, "If he really manages to break through, I'll pay you."

"Teacher, if you pay now, you only need to pay 5,000 merit points. If you want to wait until the breakthrough is complete, the price will increase to 10,000 merit points since you won't be taking any risks. Make your choice."

"Of course, you can also choose to not pay. Zhou Hao is a very good test subject. If you don't pay, I'll still work with him. But if you pay, you will gain the reputation of a teacher willing to solve his student's problem. If you refuse to pay, I will get the full credit. I'll become Brother Zhou's family. If he ends up beating you to death in the future, I hope you won't blame him."

"..."

Hearing that, Zhou Hao looked at Su Yu gloomily. But he still refused to talk.
