Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 27: Chill (1)

Divine Skywing Technique: Great Strength Chapter and Blood Clotting Blade.

One cultivation method and one martial technique. These were the two books Su Yu had obtained from the cult members. He only gave the Blood Clotting Blade one look before tossing it aside. This was a low-ranked martial technique. The school had many similar techniques. There was no need to waste his time on it.

Cultivation methods and martial techniques could be divided into the four grades of heaven, earth, profound, and yellow. Each grade was further divided into tiers of peak, high, middle, and low.

That was how the cultivation methods and martial techniques of the myriad races were graded. The Blood Clotting Blade was a middle-stage yellow-tier martial technique. It wasn't completely useless, but it also wasn't anything valuable. There were a lot of such books in the school. It would be a waste of time to study this technique.

As for the Divine Skywing Technique, even if it only had the Great Strength Chapter, he still spent a lot of time reading it. According to Bai Feng, the Divine Skywing Technique was a trash cultivation method. But that was someone speaking from a much higher position. A cultivation method treasured by a higher up of the Myriad Race Cult would not be so worthless.

"Top-tier profound-grade."

That was the grade of the cultivation method. Unfortunately, Su Yu only had the Great Strength portion of the cultivation method instead of the full copy. The classification of heaven, earth, profound, and yellow included the cultivation methods of all races. Su Yu did not know much, but he knew that a lot of human supreme experts only cultivated earth or profound grade methods.

The Anping Calendar started over three hundred years ago. At that time, humanity did not have a lot of powerful cultivation methods. And most of these supreme experts were people from that era.

"Divine Skywing Technique..."

Su Yu read the book over and over again, going through the body cultivation and source qi absorption methods described in it.

"The human body mostly relies on the acupoints to channel the source qi and refine the body. The more acupoints one opens, the more source qi one can absorb, and the more source qi one can store. The opening of the nine acupoints will build the foundation. At the Great Strength Realm, one can start opening other acupoints and absorb source qi to refine one's body.

"The Great Strength Chapter of the Divine Skywing Technique shows the opening of seventy-two acupoints. After opening all those acupoints, one would reach the ninth-stage Great Strength Realm."

This wasn't Su Yu's first time reading a cultivation method for Great Strength cultivators. Way before this, he had read the basic cultivation method of the military: the Great Strength Art. That was a simple name, and that was also a simple cultivation method.

A majority of human soldiers cultivated that method. It wasn't that humans didn't have better cultivation methods, but those cultivation methods require richer source qi and stronger physical body to support the opening of more acupoints.

Even if a regular cultivator was given a heaven-grade cultivation method, that person wouldn't be able to cultivate it. There just wasn't enough source qi in the Human Realm to support the cultivation of better methods.

And without a strong physical body and foundation, one's body wouldn't be able to withstand the opening of too many acupoints. That would only cause one's body to implode from absorbing too much source qi. The Great Strength Art was capable of opening thirty-six acupoints. It was a top-tier yellow-grade cultivation method.

For a regular soldier, it was very good. It could help one rapidly grow, and it would also grant one a relatively fast progression without much cultivation resources. In fact, some people had access to better cultivation methods but would still cultivate the Great Strength Art since progress with that method would be easier, granting them an easier avenue to extending their lifespan.

As for the Divine Skywing Technique, one could open seventy-two acupoints during the Great Strength Realm. It could be considered a rather powerful cultivation method. The opening of acupoints wasn't something to be done randomly.

In the Divine Skywing Technique, all seventy-two acupoints were described in detail, with the opening sequence and the circulation route of source qi through the acupoints provided as well. Opening acupoints in the wrong sequence could easily cause the collapse of circulation. At that time, one's source qi would start dispersing and in the worst case scenario, one might even die from the backlash.

After spending a long time on the book, Su Yu concluded that this book was indeed a much better cultivation method than the Great Strength Art. Someone cultivating the Divine Skywing Technique would be stronger than a Great Strength Art cultivator.

As for whether someone with a better cultivation method could kill a soldier with a basic cultivation method on the battlefield, that would depend on factors such as experience and determination. Strength alone would not guarantee victory.

"This method can open seventy-two acupoints. It can be considered a decent method."

Of course, Su Yu did not intend to cultivate it. However, it was not a bad idea to learn more. After all, accumulation of knowledge would only benefit himself. As a researcher of the myriad languages, these cultivation methods were also the subjects of his research.

For example, now that he was aware of the positions of the seventy-two acupoints opened by the Divine Skywing Technique, he could target these acupoints the next time he encountered someone from the Divine Skywing Sect and sever the source qi circulation of his opponent.

That was why cultivation methods were not something that should be easily revealed to others. The seventy-two acupoints were their source of strength, also their weak points. Of course, not all acupoints were weak points. But the hallmaster from the Myriad Race Cult was an example of what would happen when some of the acupoints were destroyed. His source qi had dispersed and even lashed back at him, killing him immediately.

That was why Bai Feng had been able to defeat that hallmaster so easily. In fact, Bai Feng had spent less than ten seconds killing Hallmaster Chen, with half that time spent on talking. If Bai Feng had to rely only on his combat strength, it would probably not be as easy even if he could still defeat Hallmaster Chen.

Naturally, the Divine Skywing Technique would be even more complicated at the Skysoar Realm. More acupoints would be opened and many of the previous weak points would no longer be a weak point. Thus, it was clear how well Bai Feng knew the Divine Skywing Technique: Skysoar Chapter. contemporary romance

Su Yu only placed the book down after two hours. He couldn't practice a Great Strength cultivation method yet. He was only reading it to learn more about it. If he was a better researcher, he might even be able to infer the true cultivation method of the divine skywing race through the book. Naturally, he wasn't at that level yet. Not even Bai Feng would be capable of doing so.

"Cultivation methods and martial techniques aren't that useful for me at my current level. Blood essence, on the other hand..."

Su Yu had studied the three drops of blood essence as well. The projection within each drop of blood essence was basically the willpower imprint of the beings these drops of blood essence had been harvested from. By studying the projections, he could determine the actual owners of these blood essence.

"One drop of iron-winged bird blood essence, one drop of fireboar blood essence, and one drop of blood-thirsty rabbit blood essence."

All three drops came from commonly seen races, and none belonged to the divine race or the devil race. That wasn't surprising at all. How was an ordinary Great Strength Realm cult member supposed to get his hands on the blood essence of powerful beings? These common blood essence was what these regular cult members usually used to help with their cultivation.

The blood essence of the myriad races could provide a higher source qi density and strengthen one's physical body. That was extremely helpful for Great Strength cultivators. Humans generally used blood essence and pills to assist with their cultivation during the Great Strength Realm. The three drops of blood essence might not be anything valuable, but they were still sold at no less than 150,000 dollars at the Xia Trade Company.

"Not bad. Blood essence worth 150,000, ?Body Forging Pills worth 150,000, and ten gold coins. Altogether, I've earned 400,000 dollars from the two kills."

Su Yu was very satisfied with his harvest. It was true that riches and honor came amidst danger. The situation today might have been dangerous, but he had earned a lot from it. If he had submitted the cultivation method and the martial technique as well, he would have earned even more rewards.

Even if what he submitted was not something new to humanity, he would still be rewarded as an encouragement for his contribution. After all, the two served as proof that he had killed at least one cult member.

All in all, his wealth had reached 700,000 dollars in value. He grinned, wondering if his father would feel embarrassed to learn that his son had earned more money in one day than what he had saved over eighteen years.

...

That night, Su Yu dreamed again. The day he activated the book in his head, he had not dreamed. He did dream the next day, but unlike before, he no longer dreamed every single day. At times, his dreams would come every other day and at times, he would dream every day like in the past.

Su Yu suspected that his dreams were appearing in a lower frequency because almost all races in existence had already appeared in his dreams. He was now only dreaming of the few remaining races, so his dreams became more sporadic.

.

In fact, he hadn't been able to see any popular races in his dreams recently. Perhaps he had seen them a long time ago and had simply forgotten. He suspected that the races he were seeing now were simply the weaker races. They were so weak that the book itself had nearly forgotten them, resulting in their late appearance.

The monster Su Yu encountered in his dream tonight looked rather familiar to him. It resembled the looping turtle he once saw in a book. However, he was unsure if he was right. He would have to test it out with a drop of looping turtle blood essence to be sure. But after thinking about it, he concluded that unlocking the looping turtle's page wouldn't be of much help for now. He should wait and see. In any case, his body needed a break after consuming so much blood essence recently.

Ox-faced fish, iron-winged bird, and looping turtle were all races Su Yu were able to recognize in his dreams. That represented that the more common races were finally starting to appear in his dreams. At the same time, the fact that he could recognize these races also signified that his knowledge had been growing. If it wasn't for the sheer number of books he had read, he wouldn't have been able to recognize the indistinct monsters in his dreams.
