Chapter 1107: The Mysterious Su Yi!
At this moment, Su Yi could not alter the outcome—the two hundred thousand two-star Yuan Stones completely wasted.
Despite the ache in his heart, he handed the remaining Yuan Stones to his elder brother, Xi Wuqing.
“If we truly intend to confront the Tiangang Sect, these Yuan Stones might be insufficient. Can you devise a way to acquire more?” Xi Wuqing furrowed his brow and inquired.
“Let’s deal with the Tiangang Sect first; there will be abundant Yuan Stones afterward!” Su Yi pondered briefly before responding.
He had formulated a plan. If these Yuan Stones proved inadequate for now, he might consider borrowing some from Mysterious Sword Gate and Liuhe Sect. Naturally, he would only resort to this if absolutely necessary. Su Yi was reluctant to accumulate too many debts of gratitude.
“Boss, are you referring to that Yuan Stone mine?” Su Xiaoshuai asked with curiosity.
Several months prior, Nangong Ningyue had informed Su Yi about a Yuan Stone mine. Su Yi had intended to excavate it after the alliance conference.
But presently, the paramount concern was addressing the Tiangang Sect.
Hearing Su Xiaoshuai’s inquiry, Su Yi nodded, then shook his head and stated, “Not merely the Yuan Stone mine, but also the Golden Sword Sect and Seven Star Sword Sect! I believe these two third-rate powers must have some Yuan Stones stockpiled!”
As he concluded speaking, a cold smile materialized on Su Yi’s lips, his eyes gleaming like lightning.
Xi Wuqing and Su Xiaoshuai were both startled by his words. They swiftly comprehended that Su Yi intended to seize them forcibly!
Yet Overlord Sect had justifiable grounds not to spare the Golden Sword Sect and Seven Star Sword Sect for their actions!
Those two third-rate powers warranted elimination!
“Your arrival in this Chaos Realm resembles a bird finding its way to the forest!”
Xi Wuqing suddenly sighed. As he grew more acquainted with Su Yi, he felt that a place like Chaos Realm, devoid of rules where everything hinged on strength, was genuinely suitable for Su Yi!
He regarded the young man before him intently and added, “Prepare to arrange the Dark Sun Realm. The setup will require some time!”
Before finishing his statement, Xi Wuqing turned and began moving throughout the area.
Su Yi promptly followed, observing his elder brother working diligently.
Su Xiaoshuai flapped his wings excitedly and inquisitively trailed behind them.
“What are they doing, Master?”
The activities of these three individuals soon captured the attention of Huang Jian, the Green Emperor, and others.
The members of Overlord Sect watched Xi Wuqing and Su Yi traverse various corners of this small mountain gate, occasionally running to the back mountain, squeezing into rock crevices, gesturing before small trees, and sometimes digging holes and moving earth…
Such peculiar behavior and actions remained incomprehensible to everyone.
“Tedious!”
Su Xiaoshuai followed behind Su Yi and observed for a while, then began yawning and feeling drowsy.
To him, engraving the Fantastic Gate Soul Realm was somewhat monotonous, and more importantly, beyond his comprehension.
He lazily flapped his wings and settled down to sleep on a poplar tree in the back mountain.
But just as Su Xiaoshuai entered dreamland, savoring the sweet taste in his mouth, he suddenly felt his body floating!
With a resounding “boom,” the large poplar tree was uprooted by Su Yi and Xi Wuqing, who cast it aside and commenced whispering around the tree pit.
“The Fantastic Gate Soul Realm is constructed using the Fantastic Gate as the anchor, with remnants and souls as the foundation. It harnesses the energy of heaven and earth to form a space known as the realm! The term ‘Fantastic Gate’ represents celestial bodies such as the sun, moon, and stars, and ‘Gate’ refers to the Eight Gates: Rest, Birth, Injury, Stoppage, Scenery, Shock, Death, and Open! With the Fantastic Gate as the anchor, it connects heaven and earth and encompasses all existence!”
Xi Wuqing stood before the tree pit, holding a mysterious seal in his hand, explaining to Su Yi, “In the Dark Sun Realm, this represents the Death Gate among the Eight Gates, embodying violence and aggression! The Death Gate corresponds to the Kun position in the Eight Trigrams, symbolizing earth and soil. Regarding the poplar tree, it consists of wood, which counters soil. Therefore, if this tree remains, it may induce effects in this area! At times, these effects might be negligible, as it’s merely a tree! However, in other instances, due to specific details, it can precipitate the complete collapse and paralysis of the entire Fantastic Gate Soul Realm!”
“I understand now!”
Su Yi nodded and committed every word his elder brother Xi Wuqing uttered to memory.
Establishing a standard Fantastic Gate Soul Realm demands meticulous attention to detail and cannot tolerate errors. It constitutes a profoundly soul-depleting task.
Su Yi recognized that any oversight during setup would likely result in unacceptable consequences.
Additionally, Su Yi possessed some knowledge concerning the eight distinct gates: Rest, Life, Injury, Limitation, Scenery, Surprise, Death, and Opening. In his previous life, these ancient esoteric techniques were termed Fantastic Gate Divination, but they fell into disuse in that technological era.
As his elder brother Xi Wuqing arranged elements and elucidated them, Su Yi progressively acquired numerous insights. It proved considerably more rewarding than perusing books in the Yutian Palace or studying the Dark Sun Realm independently, countless times over!
“Can no one secure adequate rest anymore?”
Su Xiaoshuai ascended from the fallen phoenix tree, grumbling discontentedly.
But noting that Su Yi and Xi Wuqing completely disregarded him, he instantly felt bored and flew away again, swaying indolently.
“I cannot comprehend what the owner and Mr. Xi Wuqing are engaged in!”
The Green Emperor, Yin-yang Dark Emperor, Soul Devouring Emperor, and Huang Jian observed from a distance for an extended period, yet remained unable to discern what occupied Su Yi and Xi Wuqing.
However, witnessing their industriousness, seemingly wholly absorbed, it evoked profound curiosity in the several imperial-level powerhouses, compelling them to approach and investigate the proceedings.
In any case, lacking better diversions, spectating held appeal.
Soon, an even more peculiar scene unfolded. While Xi Wuqing guided Su Yi in and out, a procession of figures followed behind, each bearing expressions of curiosity and uncertainty.
Only on one occasion, when Su Yi abruptly turned, he nearly collided with Huang Jian.
Without significant consideration, he was about to continue walking and follow his elder brother’s steps, but suddenly halted, turned his head, and questioned the Green Emperor, Yin-yang Dark Emperor, and others, “Are you all finding yourselves unoccupied?”
“Uh… cough, cough…”
Huang Jian laughed dryly and said, “Master, please don’t be vexed. We shall depart now and not disturb you!”
With these words, he turned to leave. The Green Emperor, Yin-yang Dark Emperor, and Soul Devouring Emperor had already detected the awkwardness and had retreated considerably.
“Halt!”
Su Yi called out to them and then declared, “I have an assignment for you. You must execute it flawlessly and return promptly, without excessive delay!”
“Please issue your directive, Master!”
Upon hearing that Su Yi had a task, the Green Emperor, Yin-yang Dark Emperor, Soul Devouring Emperor, Huang Jian, and others adopted serious demeanors, positioning themselves opposite Su Yi and attentively listening.
Su Yi approached the four of them and whispered something, causing the countenances of these powerful emperors to rapidly transform.
But shortly thereafter, all four displayed joyful expressions, especially the Yin-yang Dark Emperor and Soul Devouring Emperor. They couldn’t suppress their smiles, unable to conceal their delight, and eventually erupted in laughter!
“Let us proceed!”
The four departed mysteriously, leaving everyone wondering about their destination.
“Boss, where did you dispatch them? I wish to join!” Su Xiaoshuai shouted from afar.
“You may proceed!”
Su Yi waved his hand and moved alongside the four royal members. He harbored no concerns for Su Xiaoshuai’s safety either.
Su Xiaoshuai cheered jubilantly. Having felt bored, he now had purpose and was elated.
“What scheme are you devising now?” Xi Wuqing glanced at Su Yi and casually inquired.
“Hehe… merely intending to fortify Overlord Sect slightly!” Su Yi chuckled.
Xi Wuqing regarded Su Yi with confusion, failing to comprehend.
“You shall discover when the time arrives!” Su Yi responded with an enigmatic smile.
Xi Wuqing grew increasingly curious but ultimately refrained from further questioning and resumed wandering around the area.
Decorating the Dark Sun Realm is no simple endeavor, and this instance primarily relies on Xi Wuqing himself, necessitating substantial effort. Su Yi can assist with minor tasks, but they remain inconsequential.
Hence, he needs to concentrate.
Observing his elder brother Xi Wuqing resume his activity, Su Yi closely followed, constantly heeding his brother’s teachings.
This represents a rare opportunity capable of bestowing significant benefits upon Su Yi.
For a period, only these two remained busy within the mountain gate.
Other demon beasts dare not readily disturb Su Yi and Xi Wuqing; as for the Flame Wing Demon Tiger, Golden Gryphon, and others, they departed with the Green Emperor and Yin-yang Dark Emperor.
Soon, darkness descended, yet Su Yi and Xi Wuqing tirelessly continued their movements, traversing until dawn.
When the sun reached its zenith, a contingent of figures suddenly arrived. Leading the way was the Wolf-headed Demon Bat that Su Yi had previously dispatched.
Behind it, Nangong Ningyue, Yuan Yi, and others all appeared.
Besides the individuals from the original Cangyue Mercenary Group, numerous unfamiliar figures were present, totaling no fewer than a hundred individuals!
Among them, several persons whose auras subtly fluctuated emitted formidable strength. They even surpassed Nangong Ningyue in the Elemental Awakening Realm, exuding an aura of arrogance!
Prior to returning, Su Yi had sent the Wolf-headed Demon Bat alone to instruct Nangong Ningyue to bring people to this location.
“Master!”
After the group’s arrival, it took Nangong Ningyue some time to locate Su Yi and Xi Wuqing in a small hollow within the mountains. She immediately greeted them respectfully.
“You have arrived!”
Su Yi glanced at her and stated, “Go wait in the main hall. I shall find you once I’ve concluded here!”
Su Yi waved his hand, then redirected his attention to the occupied Xi Wuqing, disregarding Nangong Ningyue.
“Yes, Master!”
Nangong Ningyue bowed respectfully and then departed.
