33: Chapter 33 Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi
Night fell, and the stars twinkled.
District A, Canglan Base City, Cloud Peak Manor.
After dinner, Su Yu sat cross-legged on the leather sofa, intently browsing the virtual light screen projected from his wrist.
It was the exclusive Scripture Pavilion resource database of Imperial Capital Martial Arts University.
Beside him, Su Wu held a remote control, seemingly watching the evening news absentmindedly, but in reality, his peripheral vision was constantly glancing at his son, his heart itching with curiosity.
"Stupid kid, hurry up... If you don't choose, how can your old man 'get a free ride'?" Su Wu urged silently in his heart.
"Dad, the heritage of Beijing Martial Arts University is truly profound."
Su Yu's fingers slid across the light screen. The dazzling array of Martial Skills made it hard for him to choose. "There are over a thousand types of blade techniques alone at the High Grade and above. Any one of them would cause Grandmasters outside to fight over it."
"Naturally." Su Wu took a sip of tea, acting cool. "Beijing Martial Arts University is the top academy in the Federation, after all. How could it hold its ground without some trump cards? However, don't bite off more than you can chew; choose the one that suits you best."
Su Yu nodded, his gaze finally locking onto a Martial Skill called "Three-Fire Thunder Blade."
"Three-Fire Thunder Blade, Rank Two High Grade."
Su Yu softly read the introduction, "The blade technique is fierce and overbearing, using one's own blood and Qi to create friction on the blade, simulating the power of thunder and fire. Below the Martial Saint level, one can use this to sense elemental power in advance; if one reaches Martial Saint, one can summon Heaven and Earth True Fire and Nine Heavens Divine Thunder. The three fires are: Raging Fire (Body Incineration), Soul Fire (Soul Scorching), and Evil Fire (Heart Attacking); the three thunders are: Yang Thunder (Evil Breaking), Yin Thunder (Bone Corroding), and Water Thunder (Exploding)."
"With a strike of the blade, it's like a purgatory of thunder and fire, peerlessly overbearing."
Su Yu's eyes lit up.
Although he had the Void-Breaking Blade, it was a technique focused on speed and sharpness. When facing large groups of enemies or opponents with extremely strong defense, he lacked an "explosive" method.
And this Three-Fire Thunder Blade perfectly compensated for his weakness!
"This one is good, I'll take this." Su Yu decisively clicked confirm.
Beep!
"Exchange successful! Remaining Martial Skills available: 1."
Su Yu didn't stop and continued browsing.
Since he had an attack method, and for footwork, he had the Leaf-Treading Footwork taught by his father—though the name was plain, it was quite useful—and for defense, he had his Chaos Body to endure.
Then... Su Yu felt he needed a trump card that could provide an instantaneous burst of power or even turn the tables in a desperate situation.
Suddenly, his gaze stopped at a corner of the light screen.
There was a Secret Manual with a dark red electronic cover—Blood Fiend Transformation.
"...A secret technique type Martial Skill?"
Su Yu carefully read the description: "Blood Fiend Transformation, Rank One Peak Grade (Incomplete). An ancient martial art that draws Heaven and Earth Evil Qi into the body and burns one's own blood and Qi, causing strength to skyrocket by three times in a short period! However, the side effects are immense. If practiced by those with insufficient blood and Qi, the least result is shattered Meridians, and the worst is body explosion."
"Note: Those whose blood and Qi are not as vast as the sea, choose with caution!"
If an ordinary Martial Artist saw the words "body explosion," they would have swiped away in fear long ago.
But when Su Yu saw the words "blood and Qi as vast as the sea," he couldn't suppress the smile on his lips.
Insufficient blood and Qi?
You must be joking! He was a man with a Chaos Body!
As long as Xiao Bai, the "power bank," was there, or if he continuously killed and devoured enemies on the battlefield, his blood and Qi would be endless!
This life-risking skill with immense side effects was practically tailor-made for him!
"This is it!"
A gleam of excitement flashed in Su Yu's eyes as he clicked confirm again.
Beep!
"Exchange successful! Data packages for Eight Desolations and Six Harmonies Art, Three-Fire Thunder Blade, and Blood Fiend Transformation are transferring..."
Watching the progress bar on his wristband finish loading, Su Yu let out a long breath, feeling as if he held the key to becoming a powerhouse.
"Finished choosing?"
Su Wu, who had been "watching TV," immediately noticed his son's movement and turned around to ask.
"Yeah, finished." Su Yu said excitedly. "Dad, I chose Three-Fire Thunder Blade and Blood Fiend Transformation. I think..."
"Alright, alright, you'll have to figure out the specifics yourself." Su Wu waved his hand, cutting off his son's desire to share, and said with a serious face, "Martial Skills are just the surface; the Cultivation Technique is the Foundation. That Eight Desolations and Six Harmonies Art is a peerless technique that leads straight to the Star Lord Realm. Although your current technique is good, its upper limit is a bit low after all."
"Hurry to the cultivation room and switch your technique first. Switching techniques takes the most time, so don't dawdle."
This was actually the truth.
Although Su Wu was doing it so he could "synchronize" quickly, helping Su Yu lay a good Foundation for the Star Lord Realm as early as possible was also of paramount importance.
"Yes, Dad!"
Su Yu didn't suspect anything and immediately got up, rushing towards the underground cultivation room with a heart full of passion.
Watching his son's disappearing back, the smile on Su Wu's lips gradually became "unrestrained."
"Hehe... Good son, your dad's 'cheat' depends on your subscription renewal."
...
The night deepened, and all was silent.
Su Wu didn't sleep but sat cross-legged on the second-floor terrace, waiting quietly.
Time passed minute by minute.
Finally, when the clock hand pointed to two in the morning.
A faint fluctuation of blood and Qi came from the underground cultivation room.
Immediately after, in the depths of Su Wu's mind, that familiar and wonderful mechanical voice rang out like heavenly music:
[Ding! Detected that descendant Su Yu is switching to the Star Lord level Cultivation Technique, Eight Desolations and Six Harmonies Art. With outstanding talent, he has just glimpsed the threshold...]
[fathers glory system judgment: The level of the Cultivation Technique is extremely high, triggering a Super Epiphany feedback!]
[The host's Eight Desolations and Six Harmonies Art has automatically evolved to—Perfection!]
[Congratulations to the host! You have comprehended the core Profound Truth of the Eight Desolations and Six Harmonies Art—Element Control! Successfully mastered the usage of heaven and earth essence!]
Boom!!
At that very moment, Su Wu felt as if his Soul was being lifted by some mysterious power, breaking through the shackles of his physical body and ascending to a higher dimension.
The world completely changed in his eyes.
The Void Realm, which previously seemed like just "air" to him, now became multicolored.
Countless tiny spots of light were jumping and flowing in the air.
The irritability of red (fire), the gentleness of blue (water), the agility of cyan (wind), the majesty of purple (thunder), the heaviness of yellow (earth)...
This was heaven and earth essence!
These were the cornerstones that built this world!
Although Su Wu had previously reached the Martial Saint level and could forcibly mobilize this Origin Qi using his powerful Mental Energy, he didn't have the correct method to use it.
But now, with the Perfection of the Eight Desolations and Six Harmonies Art, this Origin Qi became obedient soldiers in his eyes, an extended part of his body.
"So that's how it is..."
Su Wu reached out and lightly tapped the Void Realm with his fingertip.
Hum!
The originally calm ocean of Origin Qi instantly boiled.
The red fire elements gathered at his fingertip with cheers and leaps, as docile as a child.
"Is this the so-called 'multi-attribute Cultivation Technique'?"
A hint of realization flashed in Su Wu's eyes.
In fact, heaven and earth essence originally had no distinction of attributes; they were Chaos.
Martial Artists transform them into specific forms through different Cultivation Technique circulation routes.
Ordinary Martial Saints often only specialize in one attribute, like Uncle Li's fire.
Wanting to Cultivate two simultaneously not only requires extremely high talent but also easily leads to a conflict of Origin Qi within the body, resulting in Qi Deviation.
But the Eight Desolations and Six Harmonies Art was different.
The reason it could become a peerless technique of Beijing Martial Arts University was that it was all-encompassing, using an extremely profound structure to forcibly accommodate three completely different and even mutually restrictive attributes: fire, water, and thunder!
Su Wu clenched his fist, feeling the powerful strength within his body.
"The current me can finally be considered a true... Martial Saint!"
