Stellar Transformation-Chapter 530 - 15 episodes 39 - s Little Black’s Cultivation Path
The black lotus heart of the Nine-leaf Lotus and the golden orb emitted their radiance, reflecting and enhancing each other’s light. The black light from the black lotus heart intertwined and fused with the golden light from the golden orb, resembling a hose, where two different types of energy unexpectedly started to transfer between each other.
The black light was absorbed by the golden orb, and the golden light was absorbed by the black lotus heart.
Watching this scene unfold, Qin Yu was quite puzzled, "I have never heard of this golden orb before, so why does it undergo such a change when it touches the Nine-leaf Lotus today?"
Throughout the years, Qin Yu had read many golden scrolls in the Mishen Palace, particularly remembering the various exotic herbs and ores, but he had never heard of this golden orb.
With a thought, Uncle Fu appeared beside Qin Yu.
Uncle Fu had just been analyzing formation tactics in the Jiang Lan Realm. The scene before him suddenly changed, and upon seeing Qin Yu, he immediately bowed and said, "Master, what do you need?"
"Uncle Fu, take a look at this," Qin Yu pointed to the golden orb and the Nine-leaf Lotus in front of him.
Upon seeing the Nine-leaf Lotus, Uncle Fu was immediately startled and exclaimed, "This, nine leaves, could it be the Nine-leaf Lotus? And what is this golden orb?" Uncle Fu could not hide his astonishment and asked Qin Yu, "Master, this Nine-leaf Lotus is extremely precious and the golden orb appears precious as well. How did you obtain them?"
When Qin Yu heard Uncle Fu speak, he felt a slight disappointment.
Clearly, Uncle Fu did not recognize the golden orb.
However, Qin Yu still pointed towards the Nine-leaf Lotus and said, "Uncle Fu, this Nine-leaf Lotus was fortunately obtained by me at Black Dragon Pond, and as for this golden orb, I got it in the Dark Star region of the Immortal Demon Demon World years ago. Uncle Fu... I want to ask if you have ever heard of or seen this golden orb?"
"I have seen golden orbs before, but just because they are golden orbs, that does not necessarily mean they are the same thing. Tell me about the characteristics of this golden orb," Uncle Fu inquired.
Qin Yu felt a burst of happiness. It seemed Uncle Fu might know some information about the golden orb.
"This golden orb is extremely cold, surrounded by a golden liquid, and further out, there is One-element Heavy Water forming. The golden liquid, I know, is Gold Element Heavy Water, which is even colder than the One-element Heavy Water. But what exactly is this golden orb? I’ve searched through all the scrolls and still can’t find any information," Qin Yu said helplessly.
He had indeed spent a significant amount of time searching for information about this golden orb.
"Gold Element Heavy Water accompanying it?" Uncle Fu looked surprised at the golden orb, then at its energy exchange with the lotus heart of the Nine-leaf Lotus, "Master, how did the lotus heart of the Nine-leaf Lotus start exchanging energy with this golden orb? Is it under your control, Master?"
"No, it happened naturally, Uncle Fu, do you know the details of this golden orb?" Qin Yu looked at Uncle Fu.
Uncle Fu frowned and shook his head, "I don’t know, but being able to produce Gold Element Heavy Water, it should be a Hongmeng Spiritual Treasure. However, in the many years I served the old master, I’ve never heard of a gold orb-like spiritual treasure among those with a Cold Attribute."
Hearing Uncle Fu mention he had never seen it, Qin Yu felt slightly disappointed, but he had been prepared for this and merely nodded slightly.
"Master, why not refine this golden orb?" Uncle Fu asked, puzzled.
"This golden orb is too cold, even capable of freezing souls. I estimate that only someone at the Soul Infant level could refine this golden orb," Qin Yu remarked, remembering his own Soul Realm and sighed, "Alas, I have reached the peak of Upper-Level Divine Being for many years. Recently, I spent more than a hundred thousand years studying formation tactics and made some progress, but my soul has still not broken through."
Uncle Fu consoled, "Master, the step from Upper-Level Divine Being to Heavenly God is extremely, extremely difficult! In the entire Divine World, countless Upper-Level Divine Beings are stuck at this step, and just looking at how many Upper-Level Divine Beings there are at Black Dragon Pond compared to Heavenly Gods proves it."
Qin Yu gave a faint smile.
He understood this principle all too well, yet having been stuck at the pinnacle of the Upper Level Divine Being for so long, Qin Yu had grown somewhat anxious.
"It seems I need to specifically study and comprehend the spatial understandings left by Senior Zuo Qiumei," Qin Yu silently decided in his heart, "Once my research on formations reaches the Fourth Level Formation, I will break through to the Heavenly God Realm first!"
Although Qin Yu had reached the Third-level Array Formation a long time ago, after so many years of cultivation, he had only managed to arrange more advanced types of Third-level Array Formations, and as for Fourth-level Formations, he was still unable to arrange them.
*******
Qin Yu could sense that the golden orb and the Nine-leaf Lotus complemented each other. Since it was beneficial for both, Qin Yu did not think of a way to interfere.
"Young Master, when you are refining the Residual Snow Divine Spear, why don’t you put the Residual Snow Divine Spear into the Jiang Lan Realm for refining?" Uncle Fu suddenly asked.
Qin Yu used the Xuanhuang Energy to further elevate the level of the Residual Snow Divine Spear, which Uncle Fu knew about. In Uncle Fu’s opinion, the second layer of the Jiang Lan Realm could save a hundred times the time, so why not enter the Jiang Lan Realm?
Qin Yu shook his head helplessly and said, "The Residual Snow Divine Spear can enter the Jiang Lan Realm, but... the Xuanhuang Energy cannot leave the Qiankun World."
Speaking of this, Qin Yu also felt very confused.
In the Qiankun World, the Residual Snow Divine Spear had absorbed Xuanhuang Energy for over a thousand years, yet it had absorbed less than one thousandth of that massive amount of Xuanhuang Energy. At this rate, full refinement would definitely take a very long time. Qin Yu wanted to move the Xuanhuang Energy into the Jiang Lan Realm to save time, but the Xuanhuang Energy simply could not leave the Qiankun World.
Qin Yu also had a feeling deep down—
The growing Qiankun World seemed to have a connection with the Xuanhuang Energy. However, Qin Yu was still unable to understand this connection.
Qin Yu had a premonition that when the Qiankun World was fully grown, he might understand the secret of the Xuanhuang Energy. For now, Qin Yu only knew that the Xuanhuang Energy could be used for Artifact Refining. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
"Uncle Fu, let’s enter the Jiang Lan Realm first," Qin Yu said to Uncle Fu, and immediately the two of them disappeared from the Qiankun World.
On the second layer of the Jiang Lan Realm.
Qin Yu and Uncle Fu directly appeared outside Qin Yu’s courtyard. As Qin Yu turned to enter the courtyard, Uncle Fu immediately said, "Young Master, there is something concerning Little Black that I need to tell you."
Little Black?
Qin Yu suddenly froze, turned around to look at Uncle Fu, and frowned, "You said Little Black? What happened to Little Black?"
Uncle Fu hesitated, struggling for a moment before saying, "Young Master, I can’t clearly explain what’s happening with Hei Yu. But recently, Little Black’s cultivation has entered a peculiar state, and I am not sure if this is good or bad."
"Hmm?"
Qin Yu immediately grew anxious inside, no longer inquiring Uncle Fu, and instantly moved with Uncle Fu to the outside of Hei Yu’s training grounds.
Atop a solitary peak.
The face of this solitary peak was as if cut by a knife, extremely steep. Hei Yu, in a white robe, stood on top of the peak with his eyes closed, holding the Cloud Piercing Spear in one hand, with black spear shadows occasionally bursting forth.
After observing for a while, Qin Yu noticed something peculiar. In the Jiang Lan Realm, restrictions were minimal, and with Hei Yu’s spear speed, millions of spear shadows could be thrust instantly, but currently, Hei Yu’s spear speed was not fast.
Moreover, Hei Yu thrust his spear so many times, and each thrust was at a different speed.
"Master, Young Master Hei Yu has been cultivating with his eyes closed for over ten thousand years. During these ten thousand years, Young Master Hei Yu has been continuously thrusting his spear, and the speed of his spear thrusts has not been fast, nor has he used any Divine Power. I have been quite worried, which is why I am telling the Master now," Uncle Fu said.
Qin Yu could not see any benefit in Hei Yu thrusting his spear like this.
In the Divine World, there indeed were people who constantly practiced drawing their swords or thrusting their spears, but each strike was at their speed limit, as they all sought the extreme limits of speed.
But what about Hei Yu? His speed was not fast, just at an intermediate speed, and sometimes it was faster, sometimes slower.
Qin Yu was certain that Hei Yu would not go mad from his cultivation!
But what use was this type of cultivation?
Frustrated, Qin Yu turned to Uncle Fu and said angrily, "Uncle Fu, why did you only tell me today?"
Uncle Fu quickly replied in panic, "In the previous hundred thousand years, Master was constantly deducing formations, and I did not dare to interrupt you. Moreover, I saw that Young Master Hei Yu was practicing in such a way that, although problematic, he would not go mad from cultivation. So I thought to wait until Master finished his retreat to tell you. But when Master left the retreat, you went out, so I had to wait until now to inform you."
Seeing Uncle Fu like this, Qin Yu knew he was wrong to be angry. Moreover, he had sensed the changes in Black Dragon Pond and immediately went out, so Uncle Fu really didn’t have a chance to tell him.
"Uncle Fu, I was wrong; it’s just that Little Black is a brother who grew up with me," Qin Yu said as he looked anxiously at the distant Hei Yu.
"Little Black!" Qin Yu suddenly called out.
Hei Yu did not react at all and continued to stand on the solitary peak, thrusting his spear at a normal speed.
"It seems Little Black is completely focused, entering a special state," Qin Yu said helplessly, transmitting his divine sense directly so that his voice echoed in Hei Yu’s mind, "Little Black, take a break for now!"
The motion of Hei Yu thrusting his spear suddenly halted, and then he opened his eyes.
Seeing Qin Yu, Hei Yu’s face was filled with joy, and in a flash, he appeared in front of Qin Yu, exclaiming ecstatically, "Big Brother, I haven’t seen you in so long, but why did you interrupt my cultivation just now!"
"Just now? You’ve been in that state for over ten thousand years," Qin Yu said helplessly.
"Over ten thousand years?" Hei Yu’s eyes widened, then he closed his eyes and sensed for a moment, nodding, "Indeed, it’s been over ten thousand years. I didn’t realize time could pass so quickly."
Qin Yu suddenly noticed a change in Hei Yu.
"Little Black, have you reached the peak of the Upper Level Divine Being?" It was only then that Qin Yu noticed Hei Yu’s progress.
Qin Yu remembered clearly, over a hundred thousand years ago, Hei Yu was only at the peak of Intermediate Divine Being, but how had he caught up to himself so suddenly?
"Err..." Hei Yu himself was also stunned, and he was confused for a while, "Huh, I’m at the peak of Upper Level Divine Being? Last time I was just at the peak of Intermediate Divine Being. Although I felt I was about to make a breakthrough, over ten thousand years, how did I reach the peak of Upper Level Divine Being?"
Qin Yu suddenly thought of a question.
This method of cultivation Hei Yu was practicing seemed to be some special method. The rapid progress might be related to it. Realizing this, Qin Yu couldn’t help but feel happy for his brother.
"Hei Yu, why have you been thrusting your spear on the solitary peak for over ten thousand years?" Qin Yu asked.
Hei Yu shook his head and said, "It’s hard to say. One day, while I was practicing on that peak, I suddenly had a very mystical and special feeling, and then I followed that feeling, continuously thrusting my spear. Until today, I’ve had some small gains, and I have a feeling... The cultivation method I’ve discovered, if I continue to cultivate it, should be very powerful."
Qin Yu’s eyes lit up and he said, "Little Black, try thrusting your spear at me."
Hei Yu’s eyes also sparkled, "Haha, alright, Big Brother, taste what I’ve worked out these years." After saying that, Hei Yu reached toward the ground, grabbed a stone, and immediately shaped it into a long spear. Holding the stone spear, Hei Yu stared at Qin Yu.
Qin Yu, wary as well, grabbed a stone spear like Hei Yu.
"Big Brother, be careful," Hei Yu’s eyes burst with a gleam, "Take this!" With a loud shout, Hei Yu thrust the stone spear.
At the moment Hei Yu thrust his spear, Qin Yu felt as if his mind had stopped.
The spear’s speed seemed slow, but Qin Yu felt as if his own motions were even slower, struggling to move his stone spear to block Hei Yu’s thrust.
"Stop!"
Qin Yu suddenly exclaimed.
"Big Brother, what’s wrong?" Hei Yu asked in confusion, "How was my attack just now? This is a little insight from over ten thousand years; I feel I still understand very little, but I believe that with time, it should prove to be much better."
Qin Yu was amazed as he looked at Hei Yu.
Even when fighting against Tan Jiu, Qin Yu had never experienced such a strange feeling. Hei Yu’s spear thrusts were clearly not fast, but when facing Hei Yu’s long spear, it was very difficult to block.
Qin Yu did not understand.
Qin Yu knew that if he were to fight Hei Yu in the Divine World, and if he did not use the Qiankun World’s Space Power, using only the same weapons as Hei Yu, he might not even be a match for Hei Yu.
"Little Black, you are stronger than I am," Qin Yu said reassuringly.
"Big Brother." Hei Yu was startled.
Over the years, both Hou Fei and Hei Yu always followed Qin Yu’s lead on the path of cultivation, always finding that the gap between themselves and Qin Yu was growing. Unexpectedly, today Qin Yu conceded.
"Keep cultivating this way," Qin Yu encouraged.
In reality, Qin Yu was mistaken. In "Star Transformation" at the Origin Realm, Qin Yu could still use Origin Power, but upon reaching the Qiankun Realm, he could only use Space Power.
The Qiankun World was also cultivated by Qin Yu; it was Qin Yu’s own ability. He thought that without relying on the Qiankun World or powerful weapons, he would not be a match for the current Little Black. This idea was perhaps too extreme.
(What is Little Black’s cultivation path? Hehe, Fang Qie can give a hint, and it is related to Qin Yu’s Qiankun World.)
