43: Increased spiritual power, incredible movement technique!

As the first bolt of tribulation lightning dissipated,

Su Yun's figure reappeared on the summit of Qingyang Mountain.

At this moment, Su Yun's hair was somewhat scorched, but a hint of joy was visible on his face.

He discovered that by circulating the "Heaven Refining Art," he had actually absorbed a trace of the tribulation lightning.

Now, his spiritual power contained a small amount of lightning.

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for successfully absorbing a portion of the tribulation lightning.]

[The Host's spiritual power now carries a slight numbing effect.]

[Continuing to absorb tribulation lightning will increase the power of the Host's spiritual power.]

[However, the next Lightning Tribulation will sense that the Host has absorbed tribulation lightning, and its power will be greatly increased.]

"If it gets stronger, then so be it!"

"Just go for it and get it over with."

Su Yun withdrew the Glazed Sacred Fire and directly endured the Lightning Tribulation.

The tribulation cloud in the sky finished gathering power once again, releasing dozens of lightning bolts.

Countless large craters appeared on the mountain peak, all of them spots struck by lightning.

Without the Glazed Sacred Fire protecting him, Su Yun's body became charred black.

Although the Protective Spiritual Light of the "Heaven Refining Art" had powerful defensive capabilities,

Su Yun wanted to absorb the tribulation lightning, so he did not cover his entire body with the Protective Spiritual Light.

The Protective Spiritual Light only covered the vital parts of his body.

As the Lightning Tribulation continued to fall,

the injuries on Su Yun's body grew increasingly severe.

Yet, he was exceptionally excited.

After absorbing a large amount of tribulation lightning, his red-and-white spiritual power turned into red-and-purple spiritual power.

His Golden Core was also entwined with a trace of purple lightning, emitting a powerful aura.

Finally, after the last particularly powerful bolt of tribulation lightning fell, the tribulation cloud in the sky vanished.

"It's finally over!"

"My spiritual power actually contains lightning now!"

"This 'Heaven Refining Art' really can refine anything!"

"The protagonist's stuff is truly awesome."

Su Yun sighed with emotion.

When he first learned this Cultivation Technique through the System, he thought it was just a simple Body Refining technique.

He hadn't expected it could also refine various things and absorb them into his body to enhance his spiritual power attributes.

"Fivefold Fire Control Art!"

With a wave of Su Yun's hand, red-and-purple flames surged toward a massive boulder on the opposite hilltop.

The boulder exploded instantly, and a huge crater appeared beneath it.

The crater was covered in charred marks and still crackled with a trace of lightning.

"This power isn't bad!"

"The Golden Core is formed; it's time for me to return to the Sect."

As soon as Su Yun finished speaking, he took out the White Flame Sword and set off toward the Sect by riding it.

An hour later, several elderly men with immortal-like bearings suddenly appeared on the summit of Qingyang Mountain.

"Was this a Golden Core Lightning Tribulation?"

"Impossible. We clearly sensed that the heavenly secrets began to grow chaotic from this very spot!"

"Let me perform a calculation."

The eldest-looking among them closed his eyes and began chanting under his breath.

A moment later, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and his entire being aged significantly in an instant.

"I can't calculate anything. I even suffered a backlash, consuming a thousand years of my Lifespan."

"And as for the person who triggered the Golden Core Lightning Tribulation here, I cannot calculate their identity either."

The old man sighed helplessly.

"Then what should we do?"

"It is the will of heaven!"

"I have a premonition that the path to Immortal Ascension will open once again, and someone in this generation will achieve Immortal Ascension!"

"Let us return and prepare ourselves for the coming struggle of the great era!"

After the old man finished, the other elders nodded in agreement.

A gust of wind blew, and the elders on the summit of Qingyang Mountain vanished.

Qingyang Mountain returned to its usual tranquility... Inside the Xuanji Sect's Scripture Pavilion.

Su Yun quickly returned to the Sect from Qingyang Mountain.

Remembering that he could still claim twenty Cultivation Techniques, he went to the Scripture Pavilion.

This time, he entered the second floor.

The techniques on the second floor were suitable for the Foundation Establishment and Golden Core Realms.

There were not only Cultivation Techniques but also Body Refining techniques, movement techniques, and various Spells.

Su Yun pondered his current techniques.

He realized he lacked a movement technique.

Although the martial arts experience he had inherited included content on increasing speed,

only a dedicated movement technique could truly enhance his speed.

Su Yun quickly found many movement techniques, but their Ranks were not high.

There were no high-level movement techniques.

Right, I almost forgot about the System's technique synthesis function!

Su Yun slapped his forehead, suddenly remembering that he hadn't used the System's technique synthesis function yet.

He hurriedly picked up twenty Jade Slips of movement techniques.

The techniques on the second floor were all sealed within Jade Slips; viewing them directly only revealed a brief introduction.

The Seals needed to be removed by the gate-keeping elder after registration.

Thus, under the surprised gaze of the gate-keeping elder, he registered the technique information.

Then, he quickly returned to his Immortal Cave... Inside the Xuanji Sect's Inner Sect Disciple Immortal Cave.

Su Yun rubbed his hands together excitedly and then checked the technique information on the twenty Jade Slips.

"System, how many Luck Points are required to synthesize techniques?"

"[Ding! Does the Host wish to synthesize these twenty movement techniques?]"

An information panel suddenly appeared in front of Su Yun.

This information panel displayed the names of the techniques Su Yun had just viewed.

"Yes."

"[Ding! A total of 10,000 Luck Points is required.]"

"No problem, deduct them."

"[Ding! 10,000 Luck Points have been consumed to begin technique synthesis. Remaining Luck Points: 50,000.]"

The technique names on the information panel transformed into streaks of light and fused together.

Before long, they merged into a single technique name.

"Void Roaming Art."

"[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for your Heaven-Defying luck in synthesizing a space-type movement technique.]"

"[This technique has ten levels in total. Upon reaching the highest level, one can traverse the void at will.]"

"[Even different spaces can be reached in the blink of an eye.]"

"[It is even possible to gain insights into the Dao of Space.]"

Just as the System's prompt finished,

a Cultivation Technique appeared in Su Yun's mind.

He seemed to see a figure constantly traversing through the void.

Unfortunately, the content of this technique was far too complex.

With Su Yun's Comprehension Ability, he was simply unable to grasp it.

However, he could just use his 'cheat.'

"System, learn the first level directly!"

"[Ding! 40,000 Luck Points have been consumed to learn the technique. Remaining Luck Points: 10,000.]"

The obscure and difficult technique in Su Yun's mind instantly became simple and easy to understand.

Soon, he learned the first level of the "Void Roaming Art."

Stepping outside his Immortal Cave, Su Yun began to test the newly learned technique.

With a thought, he suddenly appeared inside the Immortal Cave.

"I can actually teleport over short distances now?"

Su Yun tried several times.

He discovered he could teleport consecutively over short distances, with his speed being at least dozens of times faster than before.

One had to know that even Mu Wanning could not achieve consecutive teleportation.

However, the spiritual power consumption for consecutive teleportation was simply too high.

Even with the abundant spiritual power in Su Yun's body, he could only teleport thirty times in a row.

Furthermore, each distance could not be too far.

"Wouldn't it be even more awesome if I upgraded to the second level?"

Su Yun suddenly wanted to see the effects of the second level.

"System, upgrade the technique by one more level for me!"

"[Ding! The Host's Luck Points are insufficient. The Luck Points required to upgrade to the second level is 200,000.]"

"So expensive? But with such a good effect, it's normal for it to be pricey."

"My points have actually hit rock bottom again?"

Su Yun hadn't noticed the consumption of Luck Points earlier.

Now, looking at them, only ten thousand Luck Points remained.
