136: Chapter 136 The Plan Has Changed

Time passed quickly within the Ancestral Land.

On this day, the originally dim, yellowish sky suddenly twisted violently, and the earth began to emit a low rumble.

The force of spatial repulsion descended!

"Is the Ancestral Land closing?" Su Yu looked up at the gradually forming spatial vortex in the sky, his brows slightly raised. "It's actually a full few days earlier than the Academy predicted?"

He had a faint guess in his heart; this likely had a direct connection to the Guardian of the Ancestral Land in the white house exhausting its Origin and completely dissipating.

Having lost its core maintenance, this ancient space could naturally no longer continue to exist stably.

"Swish!"

Su Yu did not resist this repulsive force, letting the spatial vortex wrap around him.

After a bout of dizziness.

When the vision before Su Yu cleared again, he had landed steadily in the starry sky.

Having just emerged, Su Yu immediately dialed the exclusive communication channel on his wrist.

"Mentor."

The communication connected, and Du Dong's angular, square-shaped face appeared on the holographic screen.

Su Yu did not waste any words, reporting in detail everything that had happened in the Ancestral Land, especially the process of the Star Demon Cult and the Rakshasa Clan traitors tearing off their disguises and attempting to slaughter the Human Race Geniuses.

Of course, regarding why he was able to suddenly erupt with the cultivation of the Star Lord Realm and kill ten monsters of the same rank, Su Yu did some embellishing.

He concealed his inexplicable improvement and pushed all the credit onto the Guardian of the Ancestral Land, who was already dead and could not be verified.

"Mentor, it was that Guardian who, seeing the alien races running rampant, used its final Origin to forcibly empower me just as it was about to Dissipate. Only then could I luckily achieve a Breakthrough to the Star Lord Realm and, with the power of an ancient treasure, barely manage to kill them…"

Su Yu's expression was seventy percent fearful and thirty percent resolute, portraying the image of an Academy Seed who had fought a bloody battle with vivid realism.

After hearing the report, Du Dong's expression was so grave it could almost drip water. He nodded and immediately cut the communication, evidently going to urgently report this intelligence to the higher-ups.

Meanwhile.

In the vast starry sky outside the Ancestral Land, the fleets of various major powers were also in an uproar.

When those Human Race Geniuses who had fled from the Ancestral Land in a sorry state reported what they had seen and heard inside to their respective elders.

All forces were shocked to discover that the vast majority of the ancient treasures that had appeared during this trip to the Ancestral Land, and even the highest-grade core treasures, had actually been completely swallowed up by a single Seed from Aolan Academy!

Red-eyed? Jealous?

Of course there was!

But the high-level officials of all parties chose to keep their mouths shut with extreme tacit understanding; no one dared to have any complaints.

In this starry sky where the weak are prey to the strong, having big fists is the hard truth, let alone a behemoth like Aolan Academy?

Aolan Academy, Planet One, administrative hub.

Inside the Vice President's office, the atmosphere was oppressive.

"Bang!"

A dull sound of a table being slapped rang out.

"What?! The Rakshasa Clan actually colluded with the Star Demon Cult, that cancer of humanity…?"

Behind the desk, that old man who had been so majestic at the graduation ceremony now had eyes that had seen through the vicissitudes of life, filled with fury!

"That is correct, Vice President; that is what Su Yu reported."

Standing straight in the holographic projection before the desk, Du Dong had an exceptionally serious expression: "These five nails not only disguised themselves as our Seeds but also unscrupulously joined forces inside the Ancestral Land to hunt down our Human Race Prodigies. If not for that Guardian of the Ancestral Land risking its life to help and forcibly raising Su Yu's cultivation, we would have lost more talent from the Human Race this time!"

The old man heard this and pinched the space between his eyebrows.

"Fine… fine…"

The old man shook his head somewhat powerlessly, a trace of fatigue flashing in his cloudy eyes: "It seems the situation at the border is even worse than what those idiots in the Intelligence Department predicted!"

"The plans have changed; I must go to the Senate immediately to consult with those old fellows in seclusion."

The old man stood up. Just as he was about to cut the communication, he seemed to have thought of something, and his originally sharp gaze softened a little.

"Du Dong."

"Here."

The old man took a deep look at Du Dong: "That student of yours, Su Yu… is very good."

"To be able to face the encirclement and killing of ten alien enemies of the same rank in such a desperate situation without retreating, and even be able to counter-kill them all—regardless of whether he borrowed the Guardian's power or had his own trump cards, this Heart-Nature and combat power are definitely a rare piece of unpolished jade!"

"After this matter, I will not treat him poorly!"

"Thank you, Vice President!" A flash of wild joy crossed Du Dong's eyes as he cupped his fists heavily.

Time flew by.

In the blink of an eye, a full month had passed since the Ancestral Land incident.

In this month, because Su Yu's cultivation had solidly stabilized at the Star Lord Realm, he had officially become a second-year Seed of Aolan Academy.

Moreover, after handing over those third-tier and fourth-tier ancient martial treasures, he successfully intercepted and kept that fifth-tier Dark Gold Token!

Planet No. 4, the front yard of Su Yu's villa.

Sunlight spilled onto the spacious and level alloy lawn.

Su Yu sat cross-legged on the ground, his eyes slightly closed, his breathing long and steady.

"Hoo…"

He slowly exhaled a breath of turbid Qi.

After a month of seclusion and consolidation, he had finally completely refined that fifth-tier ancient treasure!

"Come out."

Su Yu opened his eyes sharply, a flash of brilliance crossing his pupils.

He moved his consciousness slightly.

"Hum—!"

A stream of blinding dark golden light instantly broke out from his Dantian!

That Dark Gold Token, radiating a heavy ancient aura, seemed to possess life; it hovered steadily three feet above his head, slowly rotating and casting a layer of extremely profound dark golden light, shrouding Su Yu entirely within it.

"Let me see just how strong you are after being completely refined."

Su Yu did not hesitate, directly forming hand seals, and injected the Origin Qi within his body into the Dark Gold Token above his head!

Rumble!!!

The moment the Origin Qi was injected!

A strange change suddenly occurred!
