156: Ruyi Sky-Supporting Staff

In truth, Su Yu didn't necessarily have to go to such lengths to oppose True Monarch Longhai.

But he had no choice.

Otherwise, he would have been content to stay in the Two Prefectures Merchant Alliance and make a living.

However, he had a System, and once he was exposed to the eyes of these old monsters, he didn't believe this secret wouldn't be discovered.

An Artifact Refining expert, who suddenly achieved Body Integration without any preparation, would surely be suspicious to these seasoned old monsters.

What awaited him would be Soul Scouring, torture, and more Soul Scouring!

Even if the actual situation differed from Su Yu's conjectures, Su Yu dared not gamble on their humanity.

What Cultivator would willingly entrust their life and fortune to someone else's worthless trust?

Even fellow disciples, relatives, and friends would fight each other for profit, let alone a Cultivator of unknown origin like him.

Tianliu Prefecture was no longer a viable place to stay. Fortunately, the Haotian Realm had seventy-two prefectures, and even if the Haotian Realm became unsuitable, there were six other realms.

He wasn't afraid of having nowhere to go.

Given his identity, it was indeed not suitable for him to go to the larger prefectures.

He could, however, choose to stay in some weaker prefectures.

For example, the bottom three prefectures, where there were only one or two Integration Stage Cultivators, making them difficult to encounter.

Given his current situation, he would soon gather enough Spirit Stones for the Body Integration Stage.

It wouldn't be too late to seek revenge then.

True Monarch Longhai had now caught up to one of Su Yu's phantoms.

Looking at the phantom that was almost identical to Su Yu, True Monarch Longhai was furious, immediately striking down with a palm and obliterating the phantom.

He had spent several hours chasing this phantom, and now he would be delayed for much longer.

After all, for every hour of delay, that junior might completely escape.

Within tens of millions of miles of this place, there was a giant teleportation array!

However, just as he was leaving, a brilliant light exploded near True Monarch Longhai.

In an instant, it transformed into a golden light barrier, enveloping True Monarch Longhai.

After the golden light barrier trapped True Monarch Longhai, it then stirred up large golden ripples!

The golden ripples possessed the power to shake the Divine Soul. With just one contact, True Monarch Longhai's Divine Soul felt as if it were wrinkled skin being peeled back layer by layer.

Even an Integration Stage Cultivator shivered all over, a trace of Chaos flashing in his eyes.

True Monarch Longhai's Nascent Soul suddenly emitted a blue ripple, emerging from within True Monarch Longhai's body.

Then, the blue ripple collided with the golden ripple, instantly intertwining.

The Chaos in True Monarch Longhai's eyes also vanished in a flash.

"What a strange Divine Soul attack, it actually made my Divine Soul fall dormant for an instant!"

True Monarch Longhai said with a solemn expression.

At this moment, in addition to his anger, he also felt a hint of apprehension.

With a wave of his hand, a black pearl the size of a fist materialized out of thin air and smashed towards the golden light barrier.

Boom! The black pearl, with the force of ten thousand tons, instantly smashed a hole in the golden light barrier.

However, after the golden light barrier was broken, it rapidly contracted, attempting to trap True Monarch Longhai on the spot.

However, True Monarch Longhai merely snorted coldly, and the black pearl instantly transformed into a large curtain of water, shooting towards the golden light barrier.

Each drop was comparable to a heavy mountain!

It was none other than the legendary Primordial Heavy Water!

But judging by its appearance, it seemed to have been refined to the second stage, becoming Biregional Heavy Water.

Legend has it that Primordial Heavy Water requires drawing and refining an entire great river to condense a single drop.

Biregional Heavy Water, moreover, requires a great river!

The amount of water required is more than a hundred million tons.

Furthermore, refining this item consumes an absurd amount of magical power; a Soul Transformation Cultivator can only refine one drop of Primordial Heavy Water in a hundred years.

As for Biregional Heavy Water, Soul Transformation Cultivators can no longer condense it; it requires a Void Refinement Stage Cultivator to spend a hundred years.

And the Biregional Heavy Water in True Monarch Longhai's possession had even been refined into a heaven-piercing spirit treasure.

The amount of Biregional Heavy Water consumed was more than a hundred!

This alone shows how terrifying its power is!

In fact, if one looked closely, they would see that the surrounding space was somewhat warped by the heavy water.

With just one encounter, the golden light barrier was instantly broken.

Then, True Monarch Longhai waved his hand, and his Lifebound Treasure, the sea quelling pearl, flew back into his grasp.

He snorted coldly, then angrily punched towards the phantom's previous location.

A massive Spiritual Light fist-shadow instantly solidified and blasted into the ground, turning a hundred-mile radius into ruins.

Spiritual Light raged, and the constantly spreading aftershocks crushed the earth into powder.

Many years later, this place formed a gigantic lake.

On Su Yu's side, he knew immediately after the phantom was destroyed.

A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

And the matter was not over; True Monarch Longhai flew towards the second phantom.

That phantom was a trump card Su Yu had left, enough to give True Monarch Longhai a hard time.

Half a day later, True Monarch Longhai caught up with the second phantom, then turned and left without looking back.

Having been tricked once, he would not bother to destroy these phantoms again.

But at this moment, the phantom seemed to possess intelligence, grinning.

An aura belonging to Su Yu's Divine Soul emanated.

Then, a gigantic ten-thousand-zhang Sky-Opening Axe appeared out of thin air, chopping down directly at True Monarch Longhai.

The Sky-Opening Axe was incredibly fast, so fast that True Monarch Longhai didn't react in time.

Caught off guard, True Monarch Longhai was actually struck on his Physical Body by the Sky-Opening Axe.

The Sky-Opening Axe cut half an inch into True Monarch Longhai's protective Spiritual Light, then violently exploded.

Countless axe auras splattered, attempting to hack True Monarch Longhai into pieces.

However, in front of an experienced Integration Stage Cultivator, these axe lights were merely tickles.

True Monarch Longhai only grew more furious.

"Good, good, good!"

At this moment, his face was ashen, and he uttered three 'good's in a row.

His face contorted with rage, he pulled out a resplendent golden rod from his ear.

Then he tossed the rod into the sky, and it immediately transformed into a golden hair, disappearing into the Void Realm.

This item was one of the offensive secret techniques he had obtained in a certain ruin back then.

It was called the Ruyi Heaven-Piercing Rod.

As long as it locked onto a Qi mechanism, it could travel through the Void Realm and strike the enemy.

However, the cost was immense; one could only use it three times in a lifetime.

Each use would deduct a thousand years of cultivation!

For an Integration Stage Cultivator, it would be difficult to recover without several centuries of recuperation.

He had already used it twice before.

Once, during a battle with an Integration Stage Emperor, he severely wounded him with this move.

Another time, during a treasure hunt in a Secret Realm, he ambushed a Late-Stage Nascent Soul Cultivator, allowing several members of their Tian Yue Sect to escape successfully.

He never expected the last use to be on Su Yu, a junior Void Refining Stage Cultivator.

Even though it was a great waste, if he couldn't kill Su Yu, True Monarch Longhai's anger would not be appeased!

Therefore, even the most precious treasure was worth it.

His thoughts were clear!

For an Integration Stage Cultivator, it was far from being just four simple words.

If one was not careful, it could attract a Heart Demon.

Moreover, Heart Demons become even more troublesome after reaching the Body Integration Stage.

Little did he know that countless powerful Cultivators had overcome the Great Heaven Rank more than ten times, yet ultimately perished under the encirclement of Heart Demons!

He didn't want that!
