Tribulation of Myriad Races

Zhao Li said nothing and tried his new cultivation method one more time before saying, "Don't spread your cultivation methods so easily. I suggest that you only spread the one with 18 acupoints. As for the rest, forget about spreading them. Are you tired of living?"

Just imagine it. The Source Soul Research Center had only been founded for a week when the kid started throwing out dozens of acupoint fusion methods. Was the kid intending to crush all the other research centers?

Su Yu scratched his head and said, "But I need someone to test my new cultivation method. I won't dare to try it with my own body. Thus, I need to teach it to someone. I intend to work with Zhou Hao..."

"Xia Yuwen's student?"

"Yeah." Zhao Li thought about it and said, "He is indeed a suitable test subject. He has opened at least 144 acupoints. As someone cultivating the Thousand Mountain Art, he will definitely rise abruptly the moment he solves the issue of his repelling force."

Zhao Li was very picky when judging others.

The fact that even he was praising Zhou Hao could only mean that Zhou Hao was truly terrifyingly talented.

"Since it's your own cultivation method, I won't stop you from doing what you want with it. Just think things through before doing anything. Do you want to rope him in or let nature take its course?"

Su Yu smiled, "I don't really care. As long as he doesn't leak it or end up turning against me in the future, it doesn't matter if he aligns with me or not."

Zhao Li nodded, "I can sense some thick demonic aura on you. Have you been staying with some demonic beasts recently?"

"Not really. I've been staying with a water elemental and a shadow. They have been protecting me recently, but they're currently in the research center."

Su Yu still knew what he should and shouldn't do. He would not keep the two beasts with him when he was researching these cultivation methods.

"Good. Don't expose everything. Also, don't look for me whenever you have a new cultivation method to deduce. I am not omnipotent."

In fact, Zhao Li was starting to feel that the more he knew about the kid, the more danger he was in. Some of this kid's secrets could really cause a lot of people to die.

Zhao Li sank into contemplation. After suppressing his repelling force, he would probably require half a year to open 12 acupoints. Then, he would be able to cultivate the acupoint fusion method with 36 acupoints. At that time, would he be able to fuse some of the acupoints he hadn't been able to fuse before and enter the Mountainsea Realm?

He would enter the Mountainsea Realm through physical cultivation. Zhao Li's emotions were complicated. That might really be possible. He would finally become a true Mountainsea, not through willpower cultivation, but physical cultivation instead.

Would anyone in his position dare to even imagine being able to reach the Mountainsea Realm?

He said nothing else and continued helping Su Yu with the acupoint fusion method.

Once, twice...

They only needed to get the last few acupoints linked properly, but it still took them a lot of time. After about a dozen failures, they finally reached the 35th acupoint. And next...the 36th acupoint lit up as well.

Su Yu was overjoyed while Zhao Li's emotions turned complicated again. After working on this cultivation method for so long, he was also confident that it would work.

Su Yu...might have really produced a cultivation method capable of removing almost the entirety of the repelling force of acupoints. It might not be able to remove all the repelling force for those in the Skysoar and Cloudbreach Realms, but it was still incredibly effective.

"What is the name of this cultivation method?"

"Double Wu Acupoint Fusion Art."

After thinking about it, Zhao Li laughed, "What a player."

"..."

Su Yu was completely lost. What was that reaction?

Zhao Li had a wide smile as he said, "Not bad, kid. Work hard. If you want, you can even get an upgrade from Double Wu to Triple Wu. Let me tell you something. Wu Yuehua's eldest niece is not bad as well. I really admire that girl. As a cultivator, you still want to find someone who can walk the path until the very end with you. You need someone who can fight and travel alongside you."

And the eldest daughter of the Wu Family had such potential. Su Yu was astonishingly talented, but so was she. She was probably already a Cloudbreach. And she was no ordinary Cloudbreach. Rather, she was a freak Cloudbreach capable of fighting those at the fourth or fifth stage the moment she entered that realm.

By the time Su Yu reached the Cloudbreach Realm, she would probably be near the Mountainsea Realm. Of those from Bai Feng's generation, she was the only person Zhao Li looked highly upon. She would be a good match for Su Yu.

More importantly, the Wu Family was quite strong as well. Wu Yuehua herself was an eighth-stage Mountainsea while her mother was a Sunmoon. Zhao Li knew that old woman. She was extremely protective of her own. It would be nice for Su Yu to be her family. With the protection of a true Sunmoon, things might also be safer for Su Yu.

Wu Qi was a future Mountainsea. And she also had powerful parents and grandparents. And all of them were still alive. The Wu Family had multiple Mountainseas. That was a fact that Su Yu had completely neglected thus far.

If Wu Yuehua was talented enough to become a Mountainsea, how about her elder brother, who was Wu Lan's grandfather? Since both the Wu sisters were so talented, how about their parents? The Wu Family was one of the most powerful families in Great Xia.

That was a family with one Sunmoon, two Mountainsea cultivators, and three Cloudbreach cultivators...no, including Wu Qi, they had four Cloudbreach cultivators. Excluding Wu Qi, the other three Cloudbreach cultivators were all on the verge of entering the Mountainsea Realm. This was a truly powerful family.

Zhao Li patted the shoulder of the confused Su Yu as he sighed. It was time for the kid to find a backer. Sure, he had his teacher and grandteacher, but he might not be the sole student or grandstudent of them. But he could be the sole son-in-law of the Wu Family.

Work hard, kid!

The kid's future would be set if he could get the two daughters of the Wu Family as his wives. Perhaps the entire family would be his in the future. If he could be the Wu Family's son-in-law, he could probably do whatever he wanted in Great Xia as long as he didn't offend the Xia Family. freewebnove(l)

That was why Wu Lan had been fine despite how arrogant she was. Nobody could afford to provoke her family.

Even people like Hu Qiusheng and Wan Mingze would stay silent after being shown her nostrils. Why provoke her for no reason? Even Zhou Mingren had been scolded by her a few times. But look at how silent Zhou Mingren had been.

When Wu Yuehua involved herself in the affairs of the multiple character faction, it was rather improper for the Wu Family to get involved. But Wu Qi and Wu Lan were not involved. Thus, provoking them would be the same as provoking the Wu Family.

Meanwhile, Su Yu was completely uninterested in that. Even though he was able to slightly understand what Zhao Li was getting at, he couldn't be bothered to explain himself. He was too busy feeling excited about the completion of this cultivation method. It was time to have Zhou Hao test it out!

Women? Becoming a live-in son-in-law? Stop joking! His father would beat him to death! Sure, he had threatened his father with that before his father left, but he wasn't really going to do it. If he really did that...sure, his father was weak, but his father would still beat him to death.

At the thought of his father, it was Su Yu's turn to have complicated emotions. His father sure was weak. With one punch from him, his father would probably...cough, cough. He should stop entertaining these thoughts.

But his father was really too weak. Imagine only opening 36 acupoints. Su Yu felt like he could open 36 acupoints as easy as a taking walk in the park.

That was too weak.

Maybe he should find some time to visit his father. Perhaps he could give his father a better cultivation method. But for now, he had to first visit Zhou Hao. He was getting impatient to test out his brand new cultivation method.

He could already see the Infinite Strength Realm beckoning at him.

"I'll be taking my leave, Teacher. I need to see Zhou Hao..."

Looking at Su Yu who was rushing out of the research center, Zhao Li didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He said nothing and punched the puppet into pieces before burning the pieces into nothingness.

Suddenly, he snorted after scanning his surroundings. He said, "Wan, stop spying on my place. I already have my formation up. Why are you still trying to pry on me? Do you think I can't sense it?"

A short while later, a burst of laughter rang out, "You misunderstand me."

"Heh."

Zhao Li sneered and said, "It's not like I don't know about the thing you planted in Su Yu's body. Why did you do that?"

"For his protection."

"More like to monitor him."

"There is no need for me to do that." Wan Tiansheng said, "As a genius, he naturally requires more protection. As long as he doesn't go into places he shouldn't be at or enter the area under an Invincible's influence, I can instantly fish him out of trouble. Isn't this good for him?"

Zhao Li didn't deign to give a reply. He started cleaning the room. Suddenly, he asked, "Just what are you planning? Back then, Ye Batian's death was too suspicious. Why are you still being so reckless?"

Ye Batian.

Also known as the fifth principal.

That was someone from the same generation as Zhao Li. As the son of the fourth principal, Zhao Li's relationship with the fifth principal was decent.

Wan Tiansheng laughed, "I'm not doing anything. I'm putting all my effort into training new students, drinking tea, gardening, and living a semi-retired life. Zhao Li, when are you changing your terrible temper? If you want to fix that earth-grade weapon of yours, I can help you with it..."

"No thanks." Zhao Li sneered, "We don't see eye-to-eye. I don't need your charity. Your heart is not in the right place. Today, you can give me this help. Tomorrow, my family's Source Qi Secret Grotto might be yours. I won't accept your help. The grotto will remain mine. And the academy will forever owe me a big favor. A day will come when I come knocking to have this favor returned."

"Are you doing this for Su Yu?"

"That's none of your business." Wan Tiansheng laughed, "Sure. Do whatever you want. You're too stubborn. I don't know why you would think that. I'm not that kind of person. I was sincere when I offered my help. Fine, enjoy staying in the Cloudbreach Realm."

"Heh."

Zhao Li merely sneered. Cloudbreach? He was going to reach the Mountainsea Realm through physical cultivation soon! That would be a nice slap to Wan Tiansheng's face. Then again, that fellow was too shameless. He probably wouldn't feel that slap.

After a while, Zhao Li shouted impatiently, "Piss off already."

There was no reply. After a short while, Zhao Li sighed helplessly. That old bastard was too strong. He didn't even notice that fellow leaving. He was still too weak.

In the past, he felt like the Cloudbreach Realm was pretty good. But recently, he kept getting the impression that he was getting too old. That shouldn't be the case as a Cloudbreach could be considered strong even at the Allheaven Battlefield.
