Chapter 70: The Evil Forest (2/2)
”Jingyu, I will not let you die!” Su Yu was silent for a long time He was resolved; he would risk his life for Xianer, and he would save Xia Jingyu
As she gazed into Su Yu's eyes, Xia Jingyu felt her heart pound Her fears were appeased by a sense of peace and calhtly, like a summer lotus—pure and beautiful
”Brother Yu, cohtly and her pretty face slightly blushed with a sunset glow
With that single phrase, their relationshi+p had grown Xia Jingyu was fourteen, as was Su Yu He was only older than Xia Jingyu by a few yu had never addressed his; he owed Jingyu too much! He had to protect her! Su Yu needed to reach the standards of a Holy Disciple, even with only a single month's time to prepare and cultivate his skills!
Swish—
Qiu Changjian came over His eyes held a deep admiration Before this, he'd only just barely appreciated Su Yu
”Su Yu! You're a good person!” Qiu Changjian praised His eyes glanced at Xia Jingyu; he was deeply moved and a bit jealous of Su Yu How lucky he was to have such a loyal, beautiful girl in his life? What else could anyone want?
”Are you confident that you're capable of becojian asked
”Honestly, I have no clue what those standards are,” Su Yu replied bluntly
Qiu Changjian's eyes flashed as he pronounced each word carefully, ”Very sireat Holy Disciples, Qiu Changjian was ranked tenth He was the weakest Holy Disciple In accordance with old rules, one qualified for the Holy Disciples by beating the weakest ranked disciple Su Yu was shaken!
Qiu Changjian, a Level Nine Lower Tier, could wipe out Su Yu with a snap of his finger Such a stronga Holy Disciple? Su Yu had to attain Level Nine Lower Tier in order to save Xia Jingyu?!
”I will ask you again; do you have a specific cultivation plan?” Qiu Changjian's eyes gleamed
Su Yu shook his head ”Go into seclusion to cultivate, and then compare notes from actual combat”
”If you use such a common way of cultivation then you'll be doomed to look on helplessly as beautiful Junior Sister Xia dies a certain death,” Qiu Changjian lightly chided him, before he fiercely added, ”Master thinks you are incapable of becoment is not invalid!”
Su Yu felt apprehensive ”I request Senior Brother Qiu to please advise!” he pleaded
Qiu Changjian's eyes flashed ”Senior Brother can indeed direct you to a path of rapid breakthrough, but it is dangerous and unpredictable with a possible death at every turn Are you willing to try?” he asked seriously
Su Yu nodded with nearly no hesitation ”I have already disregarded yu's” He would rather die than iyu
”Good! You, coracefully breezed over ”I'll go too In a jian slightly hesitated before he nodded in agree while, they descended from the Heavenly Sanctuary and arrived at the southeast corner of the Mortal Sanctuary There lay a dense, primeval forest The territory was vast—about a hundred ulfed the inside of the forest, which made one shudder with fear upon approach
”That's the Evil Forest There are countless heinous slayers banished inside; each of their abilities is extraordinary They are fearsome and are otherwise known as slayers of the Alliance of the Nine Empires They are cruel, violent, killer devils—they have raped and murdered countless innocent people They are not only for They are extremely difficult to capture”
”The I these criminals They asked us to dispatch the Holy Disciples in order to undertake the mission to capture and banish all slayers to the Evil Forest, where they would be forbidden to leave on the threat of execution” How could any slayer truly dare to step out of the forest under the watch of the Holy King?
Xia Jingyu was puzzled ”If they are so vicious, why not bring them to justice? Wouldn't it be a disaster to leave thejian co theives Sanctuary disciples a good opportunity for true cole in true proxiression for cultivation
”In a hundred years, many disciples have disappeared from the Sanctuary Most of them left, but the rest found their eternal rest in the Evil Forest”
Su Yu shuddered; he couldn't help but ask, ”So…what levels are these slayers at?”
Qiu Changjian looked solemn and deeply concerned ”The lowest level slayer is Level Seven of the Martial Path! The strongest is at Level Nine Lower Tier!”
The lowest level slayer was a Level Seven of the Martial Path? Su Yu and Xia Jingyu gasped! These were indeed the slayers who shook the Alliance of the Nine E each of theyu found it all difficult to understand ”Senior Brother Qiu, do you ht hand-to-hand with the slayers? We do see the dangers, but where is the opportunity for a breakthrough?”
Life and death co froyu did not see how the benefits outweighed the risks
Qiu Changjian praised her observations, ”Very good, you've found the crux of the issue Life and death combat is truly difficult and doesn't always make one's cultivation base advance by leaps and bounds But, every slayer's body has a piece of saint grade spirit elixir!”
Su Yu was not unfaested thelanced towards Xia Jingyu, but she looked equally puzzled
”A saint grade spirit elixir was transested by redients are refined differently The difference in effect is like heaven and earth
”In other words, the effect of a hundred top grade spirit elixirs is far inferior to one saint grade spirit elixir For you two, both Level Five Peak cultivation bases, ingesting a saint grade spirit elixir will promote you to Level Six Upper Tier—it will boost you over two tiers!
”Of course, as your cultivation base advances, the spirit elixir's effect eaken proportionally It will be difficult to have another h But, to put it bluntly, this is the Sanctuary's fasted jian explained
Su Yu's breath quickened and Xia Jingyu's eyes glittered A single breakthrough to Level Six Upper Tier? This would be uniinable in the mortal world
”In addition, there are two pieces of divine grade spirit elixir on the bodies of Level Nine cri!” At the jian exposed a brilliant concept
There were also divine grade spirit elixirs? Saint grade was already so astonishi+ng, how unbelievable would divine grade spirit elixirs be?!
