36: Chapter 36 Star Lord Realm

Time is like sand between fingers, passing silently.

In the blink of an eye, two full months had passed.

During these two months, to lay a perfect Foundation for his son as a Great Grandmaster, Su Wu had spared no cost in his investment.

He used the resources Pan Hong had sent, and even secretly went to the black market, using his strength as a Martial Saint to forcibly trade for several extremely rare treasures of heaven and earth—such as the "Star Orchid" which could cleanse the marrow, and the "Soul Infant Fruit" which could strengthen Mental Energy.

Under the accumulation of such massive and top-tier resources, coupled with the terrifying digestive ability of the Chaos Body, Su Yu's cultivation improved rapidly.

Grandmaster Late Stage... Grandmaster Perfection... Half-step Great Grandmaster!

Finally, this day arrived.

Underground special training room.

"Hoo..."

Su Yu, sitting cross-legged on a cushion, slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air.

This breath, like a white rainbow, actually punched a small hole in the alloy floor.

At this moment, his body was surrounded by a faint layer of golden halo.

That was a precursor to his internal blood energy being so rich that it was about to liquefy and undergo a qualitative change.

In front of him lay an exquisite jade box.

Inside the box lay a crimson Medicinal Pill, with magma patterns flowing on its surface—a Breakthrough Pill!

This was something Su Wu had spent a huge price to have an Alchemy Grandmaster in Canglan Base personally refine; it could increase the success rate of a Great Grandmaster Breakthrough by fifty percent, with no side effects.

"It is time."

Su Yu's eyes narrowed. Without the slightest hesitation, he tilted his head back and swallowed the Breakthrough Pill.

Boom!

The Medicinal Pill melted upon entering his mouth, instantly turning into an extremely violent hot current that rushed into his limbs and bones like an angry Dragon.

"Break... for me!"

Su Yu gritted his teeth, enduring the excruciating pain of his Meridians tearing, and frantically operated the Eight Desolations and Six Harmonies Art.

The Chaos vortex in his body opened at full power at this moment, forcibly suppressing, absorbing, and converting that violent medicinal power!

Crack!

It was as if something had shattered inside him.

That was the shackle of human limits.

Hum—!

A vast, ocean-like aura erupted from Su Yu's body.

The blood energy that had been flowing in his Meridians had completely liquefied at this moment!

Great Grandmaster!

An eighteen-year-old Great Grandmaster!

Su Yu opened his eyes abruptly, and two golden lights shot out like lightning. He felt that his current strength was at least ten times stronger than his previous Grandmaster Peak state!

...

Meanwhile, on the second-floor terrace.

Su Wu, who had been acting as a Protector for his son, was lazily lying on a rocking chair, reading a copy of "Strange Tales of the Starry Sky".

Just at the moment Su Yu broke through, the familiar and beautiful mechanical voice arrived on schedule in the depths of his mind.

[Ding!]

[Detected that offspring Su Yu has cultivated diligently, has a perfect Foundation, and successfully broke through human limits, promoting to Great Grandmaster Early Stage!]

[fathers glory system judgment: Offspring has crossed a major Realm (Grandmaster → Great Grandmaster), and is an eighteen-year-old Great Grandmaster, triggering a super Divine-Grade feedback!]

[Host Realm synchronizing... Life level ultimate transition initiated!]

[Congratulations to Host! Broken through planetary constraints, promoted to—Star Lord Realm, First Tier!]

Rumble—!

This promotion caused a more terrifying commotion than any previous one.

Su Wu only felt his consciousness being pulled out of his body in an instant, as if floating in the endless starry sky of the Universe.

Around him were brilliant galaxies, and beneath his feet was a blue planet.

A brand new power, one that transcended the mundane, began to be born within him.

Every cell in his body was crazily dividing, reorganizing, and evolving.

His original human gene chain was completely rewritten at this moment, turning into a Starry Sky lifeform that was more perfect and better adapted to the Universe environment!

If a Martial Saint borrowed the power of heaven and earth, then a Star Lord was a heaven and earth unto themselves!

"Ugh..."

Su Wu let out a muffled groan, his entire body's bones emitting crisp cracks like popping beans.

Immediately after, the most astonishing change occurred.

Deep within his Dantian, the originally full Qi Sea and blood energy actually began to collapse and compress toward the center.

Countless amounts of energy gathered into a single point, and finally exploded violently!

Hum!

A tiny vortex emitting chaotic light slowly took shape within his Dantian.

It rotated slowly, surrounded by specks of starlight, as if it were a newly born Micro-Universe.

Star Vortex!

This was the hallmark of a Star Lord Realm powerhouse and the source of their power.

With it, Su Wu no longer needed to "borrow" heaven and earth essence like a Martial Saint; instead, he could directly devour and store heaven and earth essence! Even in space without air, the Star Vortex could extract energy from cosmic rays to maintain life!

"Is this... the Star Lord Realm?"

Su Wu slowly opened his eyes.

In the depths of his pupils, it seemed as if two stars were truly rotating.

He stretched out his hand and clenched his fist gently.

After this cross-level promotion, he could feel that his Physique had been greatly enhanced!

Su Wu took a deep breath, and with a thought, the Star Vortex in his body accelerated its rotation slightly.

Whoosh—!

The heaven and earth essence within a hundred miles instantly rioted, rushing toward him like a hundred rivers returning to the sea. Even the clouds above Zone A were torn apart by this suction, forming a huge funnel-shaped cloud vortex!

"Disperse."

Su Wu did not want to cause too much of a commotion, so he hurriedly dissipated the phenomenon and restrained his aura.

At this moment, he looked like that ordinary middle-aged uncle again.

But only he knew that now, with one punch, he could probably truly blow up a small city.

"Is this what a Star Lord Realm Martial Artist is like!"

Su Wu curled his lips into a confident smile.

...

"Dad! I succeeded! I broke through to Great Grandmaster!"

Just then, the basement door was pushed open.

Su Yu, like an excited child, ran all the way up to the second-floor terrace, his face filled with irrepressible joy.

"Hmm, not bad." Su Wu looked at his son and nodded with satisfaction. "An eighteen-year-old Great Grandmaster is rare even in the entire history of the Federation. It seems those resources were not spent in vain."

"Tch~ Isn't it just a Great Grandmaster! Look at how excited you are, like someone who has never seen the world."

On the sofa, the little white creature, which was licking its paws, rolled its eyes with disdain.

It shook its snow-white, smooth fur, and its tail proudly flicked an arc, releasing a powerful aura instantly.

Martial Emperor Realm Middle Stage!

"See that? I haven't been idle these past two months either! I happened to break through to Martial Emperor Middle Stage!"

The little white creature raised its chin triumphantly. "If I transform now, believe it or not, I can slap ten of you to death with one paw?"

Su Yu: "..."

Although he wanted to refute it, he had to admit that this Divine Beast was indeed monstrous.

He had to work himself to death just to reach Great Grandmaster, while this guy just slept and ate spirit fruits to reach Martial Emperor. Was this the gap in racial talent?

"Alright, stop discouraging him."

Su Wu smiled and tapped the little white creature on the head. "You are a beast, he is a human; the starting point is different. But Yu'er, with your current strength, even in a place like Imperial Capital Martial Arts University where monsters gather, you have a place to stand."

"By the way."

Su Wu's expression straightened, and his tone became a bit softer.

"Three days later, we are setting off for Yanjing Base. It's a long way from Canglan, and I'm afraid there won't be many chances to come back in the future."

"In these few days, if you have any unfulfilled wishes, or anyone you want to see... go see them."

Su Wu looked at Su Yu meaningfully.

Su Yu was stunned for a moment, and a beautiful silhouette instantly appeared in his mind.

"Yeah."

He nodded heavily, a flash of determination in his eyes.

"I know, Dad."
