188: Scrape the ground three feet deep, and the Moon Goddess departs.
"Thank you for the protection, Fellow Daoist!"
Wan Peak bowed respectfully toward Su Yu as he spoke.
Without Su Yu, he definitely would not have been able to survive this Heavenly Tribulation.
The Body Integration Cultivators who came to cause trouble alone could have made him perish under the Nine Heavens Lightning Tribulation.
Not to mention Di Ling, a friend he had known since his Core Formation Stage, had also betrayed him.
"It was an equal trade between us, there is no need for thanks."
A bow from a Mahayana expert carried too much Karma; even Su Yu did not dare to accept it and stepped aside to avoid it.
Seeing this, Wan Peak shook his head and said solemnly, "Over thirty Body Integration Cultivators, yet Fellow Daoist fought them all alone.
What extraordinary courage.
Even for someone like me, newly entered into the Mahayana stage, facing so many Body Integration Cultivators might not have resulted in a record like yours.
Had it been anyone else, they would have fled long ago. Who would dare to meet them head-on!"
Wan Peak could already imagine that the Body Integration Cultivators who escaped would spread news of this situation throughout the entire Savage Land.
Furthermore, with Su Yu's identity as a spirit demon, who knows how many Body Integration Cultivators would Seal off their mountains and refuse to come out.
"If Fellow Daoist truly wishes to thank me, then give me more Spirit Stones.
As a spirit demon, it wouldn't make sense for me not to want Spirit Stones."
Su Yu suddenly remembered that the Spirit Stones he needed to step into the Mahayana stage were not thirty trillion, but sixty trillion.
Because he Cultivated a Physical Body Cultivation Technique, unless he Cultivated it himself, he could not purchase the Realms separately.
As a result, the Spirit Stone gap he lacked was still at least twenty trillion or more.
However, he should be able to recoup it from Wan Peak.
"That is only natural. However, the Spirit Stones on my person are almost completely exhausted due to Undergoing Tribulation. If it were other Heaven And Earth Treasures, I could produce them.
However, the net worth of those Body Integration Cultivators this time is quite substantial.
Why don't Fellow Daoist come with me to raid their homes?"
Wan Peak sighed inwardly; as expected of a spirit demon, despite owing him such a great debt of gratitude, all he wanted was Spirit Stones.
At the same time, he was curious if Su Yu practiced a special secret technique centered around Spirit Stones.
Otherwise, why would he be so short of Spirit Stones?
"That suits me perfectly!"
Su Yu's eyes lit up!
After Wan Peak spent a few days simply stabilizing his cultivation, he followed Su Yu through the Land of Ten Thousand Peaks, raiding those Body Integration races everywhere.
Those Body Integration Cultivators could run, but the people beneath them could not.
The Land of Ten Thousand Peaks was so large that even if a Body Integration Cultivator wanted to escape completely, it would take several years.
Thus, the two of them, starting from the vicinity of Wan Ling Peak, began raiding homes all along the way.
Wherever they passed, they left nothing behind.
As long as it was a Spirit Stone, even a Low-Grade Spirit Stone, Su Yu would not let it go.
In just a few short decades, Su Yu accumulated the sixty trillion Spirit Stones in the Land of Ten Thousand Peaks necessary to advance to the Mahayana stage!
Having obtained enough Spirit Stones, Su Yu did not stay any longer and returned to the Underground City overnight.
It took eight or nine years before Su Yu finally returned.
"Revered Master!"
Immediately upon his return, Su Yu found his Disciple.
Seeing that Moon Chang was already at the Early Body Integration Stage, Su Yu was greatly satisfied.
He hadn't expected that in just a few decades, Moon Chang would have already advanced to Body Integration, and her Foundation was very stable.
Her background was so strong that her Early Stage strength was enough to fight someone in the Middle Stage.
"You are at the Early Body Integration Stage; Revered Master is very satisfied.
With your current cultivation, you are considered a powerhouse in the entire Savage Land. Even if you encounter someone at the Late Integration Stage, you'd have some confidence in escaping.
What are your plans next? Will you stay in the Underground City and completely become the city lord here, or do you plan to go out and travel for a bit?
After all, after the Body Integration Stage, so-called bitter cultivation can no longer satisfy the Breakthrough of Realms.
Without a great Opportunity, I'm afraid it would be difficult to break through even a minor stage in several thousand years!"
Su Yu would not restrict the development of the Disciples under his sect.
Especially since the Underground City no longer lacked Body Integration Cultivators to guard it.
With Moon Chang's talent, if she truly stayed in the Underground City for a long time, her progress would be slow. It would be better to let her travel and search for her own memories.
With her background, and Su Yu giving her some life-saving trump cards, unless a Mahayana expert intervened, they wouldn't be able to do anything to her.
"Moon Chang wants to go out and travel!"
Moon Chang spoke without hesitation.
Previously, during the Soul Transformation Stage, she had left Su Yu's side to go to Tianliu City to take on missions to slay evil cultivators.
Now that she had reached Body Integration, she naturally couldn't obediently stay in the Underground City.
After all, she had a strong personality and was unwilling to grow under Su Yu's protection for her entire life.
She also wanted to one day become the umbrella over Su Yu's head.
"Since you choose to travel, then Revered Master shall bestow several treasures upon you."
Su Yu was not surprised by Moon Chang's choice.
If Moon Chang had not chosen to travel, Su Yu might have been somewhat disappointed.
Flowers in a greenhouse cannot grow into towering trees.
Su Yu took out over a dozen heavy treasures from the universe celestial river map and handed them to Moon Chang.
These dozen or so heavy treasures were all heaven-piercing spirit treasures.
Among them were three Medium Grade heaven-piercing spirit treasures.
They were the Illusory Moon Gauze, a slaughter-type Medium Grade heaven-piercing spirit treasure, very suitable for Moon Chang's use.
The Heaven Illusion Mirror, a defensive Medium Grade heaven-piercing spirit treasure, sufficient to reflect all Spiritual Light-based attacks.
Even the Spiritual Light attacks of a Body Integration Cultivator could be reflected.
However, it had a limit; reflecting too many times in a short period would cause the Heaven Illusion Mirror to be damaged.
There was also a flight-type heaven-piercing spirit treasure, the Ten Thousand Mile void-piercing shuttle.
It was a heaven-piercing spirit treasure Su Yu had refined based on the abilities of the void-piercing shuttle from the Lower Realm back then.
It was enough to travel ten thousand miles in an instant and escape into the Void Realm, with top-tier life-saving capabilities.
Even Su Yu, if careless, would find it difficult to catch up, which showed how powerful this treasure's ability was.
The remaining heaven-piercing spirit treasures each had their own functions.
"Thank you, Revered Master!"
Moon Chang's eyes turned red; feeling her Revered Master's deep concern, she actually felt a bit of reluctance to leave for a moment.
She suddenly hugged Su Yu, her large tears constantly wetting Su Yu's robes.
Su Yu also gently patted her back with one hand while stroking her hair with the other.
"Alright, you're already so old, yet you're still crying. Aren't you ashamed?
If Jin Yan sees this, she'll mock you all day long in the future."
Seeing Moon Chang like this, Su Yu couldn't help but find it a bit amusing.
"You hateful old man, in such a touching moment, you actually mock me!"
Hearing this, Moon Chang immediately became like a prickly kitten, flailing her arms and legs.
Since Jin Yan took human form, she had been quite at odds with her, often finding ways to pick fights.
Fortunately, Jin Yan was still in the middle of breaking through to the Body Integration Stage; otherwise, if she really saw her crying so piteously, she would probably be mocked for the rest of her life.
"Alright, go now. Come home and visit when you have time."
Su Yu gently flicked Moon Chang's forehead, his tone very soft.
Moon Chang nodded heavily and then left without looking back.
As for Su Yu, once his Divine Thought sensed that Moon Chang had completely departed, he turned to look at the empty space nearby.
"What, the person has already left, and you're still not coming out?"
In the empty space nearby, a figure suddenly appeared; it was none other than Jin Yan.
Jin Yan's eyes were also red now as she looked at Su Yu with a pout.
She seemed very reluctant to see Moon Chang leave.
"Daddy..."
Jin Yan walked over to Su Yu's side and, like a child, hugged Su Yu's waist, looking very sad.
She had bickered with Moon Chang for so many years; now that they were parting, she really wasn't quite used to it.
"Don't worry, Moon Chang will come back. You don't need to worry about her safety either.
I have planted a Soul Seal on her body, which contains a Seal of my full-strength strike. As long as a Mahayana expert doesn't intervene, it will certainly keep her safe."
Su Yu looked at a certain part of the sky; the Soul Seal transmitted Moon Chang's mutterings, making him smile as he touched his forehead.
