Xiuxian: But It's Not a Game

Chapter 10 Giant Turtle and Demon Pill

"A level 100 BOSS has been spotted at temporary base No. 22!"

Someone flew across the sky and shouted loudly:
"Anyone interested can come over?"

Su Yu immediately became interested. He raised his hand and slashed a few times with his sword to kill a loach spirit. Then he took off into the air and flew towards the temporary base No. 22.

Many people saw the news, and halfway through, they saw a huge group of people flying in one direction. In less than ten minutes, the two of them appeared above a swamp and saw a giant swamp turtle like an island coiled in the large water ahead.

The diameter of the carapace alone is hundreds of meters, and it carries a large amount of soil and plants, with snakes and insects crawling around inside.

As they arrived, they heard someone shouting:
"Everyone, please hold still. Those who are not strong enough should retreat five miles away. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences."

Su Yu smacked his lips, his eyes falling on the giant turtle, and its attributes immediately appeared before him.

Black Water Turtle (Horror): Leader, Level 132, Aquatic Tribe, Turtle type.

Attributes: Qi and blood 207 million, demonic power 22, attack 26000, speed 200 km/h, demonic magic: water-based magic, devouring, water suppression, Guishui divine thunder, Guishui divine thunder net, thousand-layer Guishui Kunyuan divine ban.

It is even more powerful than the black dragon seen before. It is the top boss in the poisonous fog swamp except for several demon kings.

This big guy obviously does not belong to the demon village sequence, it is a wild BOSS, but if the demon village leader summons it, there will be many possibilities of joining the battle, so it must be cleared in advance.

Su Yu looked back and saw that there were probably thousands of people gathered around, but no one took action yet.

To deal with this kind of big boss, you can't just rush in, you must prepare in advance.

Apart from other things, there must be a few top masters standing in front to attract firepower, and a large formation must be set up to restrict the boss's movements and resist big moves, otherwise who knows how many people will die when the boss's big moves come down.

Fortunately, this BOSS is Ao, a turtle. He is usually lazy and just lies here to sleep. If it were any other big monster, he would have taken action long ago when he saw so many people.

After waiting for about ten minutes, a fifty-meter-long fifth-order spirit-wing flying boat flew over from the main base. After it stopped, hundreds of guild elites jumped out from it. Among them, hundreds of senior people holding large flags quickly dispersed under the command of the leader to prepare for the formation.

There are one hundred and eight Dutian Fiery Flags, which can be recognized by their colors.

You can set up the Dutian Fiery Array to turn the swamp into a sea of ​​​​heavenly fire.

A guild leader who jumped off the Spirit Wing Flying Boat shouted in the channel:
"Everyone, pay attention! Wait until the Dutian Fiery Flag Formation is deployed and then listen to my command to attack. Everyone can attack this BOSS. The guild will not take the spoils. They will be distributed randomly. Whoever gets them will depend on their luck."

"But please be careful. If you die accidentally, the guild will only compensate you half. Everyone can decide for themselves."

After that, he whispered a few words with several guild leaders, and a group of masters took off into the air and flew towards the giant tortoise. One of them raised a small seal and threw it up, spurting out a breath of essence. The small seal flew into the air and expanded in the wind, and soon turned into a giant seal the size of a three-story villa, shining with yellow light and smashing down heavily.

"boom!"

The giant turtle did react, but by the time it raised its head and climbed up, the giant seal had already smashed down heavily. The terrifying power directly blew the thick layer of soil and vegetation on its back into pieces.

The violent shock wave exploded, directly washing away the back of the giant turtle, revealing its blackened shell.

"Roar!"

The giant turtle, which was hit hard, stood up suddenly, raised its head and roared. Endless blue light gathered and condensed into hundreds of Guishui divine thunders that soared into the sky.

A high-ranking member of the guild stood up, took out a small green flag and threw it, which grew bigger in the wind and stood in front of them, quickly forming a spherical light curtain. Countless Guishui divine thunders exploded, and the lightning instantly submerged them.

Without waiting for the divine thunder to dissipate, the giant turtle raised its limbs and pressed down. With a muffled "bang", the exploding Guishui elite was blown apart by an invisible force, revealing a twisted and sinking spherical light curtain.

After a fierce bombardment, the light ball was violently distorted, but it was blocked.

At this time, Su Yu received a message from a high-level person in the guild channel:
"Recruiting 1080 people to provide mana to the Dutian Liehuo Banner. Each person will contribute 5 points to the guild. Interested parties can register at the Dutian Liehuo Banner. First come, first served."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a large number of guild members flying down and gathering around the Dutian Fiery Flags.

After a while, a loud voice sounded:

"Dutian Fiery Flag Formation, activate!"

With an order, the ten guild elites surrounding each Dutian Fiery Flag that had already been in place injected their magic power into the flags one by one. The Dutian Fiery Flags lit up with flames and quickly turned into blazing flags. The flames shot up into the sky and spread rapidly, soon forming a flaming tornado column that was over a thousand meters high.

The tornadoes were connected to each other in the tornado trenches. Initially, they were connected by wisps of fire, which later turned into pillars of fire that wove into a net. The flames spread and turned into a curtain of fire, covering the area within a radius of three kilometers.

From a distance, it looks like an inverted bowl of fire with a diameter of three kilometers.

"Enter the formation!"

The remaining guild members all used their magic weapons to enter the fire net. Su Yu was no exception. He also used the black iron bell and got in.

When he came in, it had already turned into purgatory. The terrifying high temperature had burned everything within a three-kilometer radius.

The water evaporated, the silt dried up, the plants burned, the monsters and insects turned to ashes, and only a giant turtle was left, which was continuously burned by the flames. It was rampaging madly in the formation, but every time it approached the edge of the formation, it was stopped by many guild masters.

In this environment, all of the giant turtle's methods are restricted.

He is proficient in water-related techniques. The Guishui Divine Thunder, forbidden techniques, etc. are all water-attributed and cannot be activated in the Dutian Fiery Array.

The remaining thousands of guild members squeezed into the formation and used their flying swords and magic weapons to bombard the giant turtle. Su Yu was no exception and used his Ice Soul to join the siege.

Countless sword lights and magic weapons hit the giant turtle, sparks flew everywhere, but it only caused a pitiful few dozen points of damage, some were only in single digits, and the damage was not even as high as the Dutian Fiery Fire.

However, no matter how little damage is done, it cannot withstand the large number of enemies. Any round of concentrated fire can cause tens of thousands of damage.

After Su Yu used the Ice Soul Sword to inflict some damage and confirmed that he had the right to distribute the spoils, he felt relieved and flew the sword from a distance, slashing back and forth on the back of the giant turtle.

The damage is not high, just for show.

Next, just wait for the giant turtle to die, and then it’s time to test your luck.

Su Yu took the time to open his attribute panel and saw that today's fortune was 22.

“It’s OK, above average.”

The four innate attributes mean that your fortune is not fixed and will be refreshed every day. You may be unlucky today, but you may be lucky tomorrow.

However, 22's luck was still not very high, and the probability of randomly getting the loot was not high. Su Yu didn't have too much hope. With thousands of people sharing it, it was normal not to get it randomly. If he did get it randomly, he would make a profit.

"boom!"

The light curtain suddenly bulged into a huge head, and the huge force was shared by the 108 Dutian Fiery Flags, without any damage.

Su Yu stood far away, watching the giant turtle struggling to its death under the siege of thousands of people.

In just four or five minutes, the giant turtle with a level of 132, more than two million HP and extremely strong defense was forcibly surrounded and killed by them.

There were no accidents and no casualties during the period.

The fact is that there is no possibility of casualties. Even the Dutian Fiery Flag has been arranged. Thousands of senior members are besieging a lone BOSS. If an accident happens, the ability of the guild leaders who are in charge of the siege will definitely be questioned.

At a certain moment, a seal as big as a villa fell from the sky and smashed the giant turtle's carapace. The giant turtle raised its head and screamed, then fell heavily to the ground.

Countless streams of light gathered from the huge corpse and turned into a ball of light, which exploded and split into twelve parts. It flew in all directions and landed on many lucky people.

Su Yu watched helplessly as one of the light balls came towards him and landed on him amid the envious eyes of others.

"Good boy, you really came!"

He opened the trophy ball with a look of joy, and inside was a round ball as big as a head, which felt warm to the touch.

When he touched it, Su Yu knew what it was without checking its properties.

“It’s actually a demon pill!”

Giant Turtle Demon Pill (spiritual object): The essence of the giant tortoise's cultivation, with magical effects.

This thing can be used to refine high-level elixirs that permanently increase attributes or blood and mana limits. It can be refined to improve the strength of beast pets. It can be used to refine magic weapons, or it can be eaten raw to increase attributes and mana limits.

Eating it raw requires refining the residual demon consciousness in the demon pill, which involves considerable risks.

Su Yu considered that alchemy and refining required a lot of auxiliary materials, and he did not have the capital, so he simply sold it to the guild for 5 gold.

After killing the BOSS, everyone can continue doing what they should do.

He returned to his original place and continued leveling up.

Wandering back and forth near each stronghold, Su Yu specialized in clearing out low-level monsters. He was very self-aware and only focused on dealing with monsters below level 50. He didn't even need to try to deal with monsters above level 50, or elite monsters above level 40, and directly summoned masters from nearby guilds for support.

The wide variety of monsters greatly broadened his horizons, enriched his combat experience, and his swordsmanship skills improved by leaps and bounds.

It took more than half a month for the guild to gather more than 500,000 members to plow the poisonous fog swamp back and forth. At this time, Su Yu's swordsmanship had advanced by leaps and bounds to an extremely high level.

A flying sword dragged out a ten-meter-long sword rainbow that shuttled back and forth on the water, easily circling more than a dozen monsters. The sword energy was like a rainbow, cutting back and forth, and blood splattered.

Compared to the immaturity half a month ago, his swordsmanship is now very sophisticated. The flying sword shuttles back and forth. Whenever a monster jumps out of the water to fight back, the Ice Soul Sword will appear beside it from a tricky angle and circle around it, and in an instant, five levels of damage will soar at the same time.

The levels of his Qi Refining Technique and Basic Sword Technique remained unchanged, still the 20th level of Basic Qi Refining Technique and the 30th level of Qingshan Sword Sutra, but at this time he could easily kill a group of level 30 or 40 monsters without any damage himself, and even his mana consumption was pitifully low.

After more than half a month, he has accumulated 478 million cultivation points, plus the previous accumulation of 692 million, and accumulated 6 points of Taoism, which were accumulated from some small BOSSes he occasionally encountered in the past half month. In addition to the original ones, he has 149 points left.

So many practice points and Taoism are enough to upgrade the basic Qi Refining Method to the 30th level, but he did not do so.

At least the 20th level of Qi Refining Technique now provides experience bonus when dealing with monsters at level 30 or 40. The bonus will be much less if you upgrade it.

However, one day, more than half a month after this situation occurred, the guild suddenly received a call to assemble - everyone should go to Battle Base No. 3.

No explanation was needed. Su Yu knew from the information in the regional channel that the general offensive had begun.

It took the guild more than half a month to barely clear out 70% to 80% of the monsters and wild BOSSes in the poisonous fog swamp. Now the guild has established Base No. 3 near the Poison Dragon Demon Village. The next step is to gather troops to launch a general attack on the demon village.

"My swordsmanship should be pretty good now, maybe I can show it off."

Su Yu pinched his chin and thought:
"Raising your status in the guild has real benefits. At this stage, I'm still unable to join a sect, so I need to stand out in the guild. Only when I have enough status will I be eligible to use the guild's power to obtain resources."

Although individual strength is the fundamental core in the other side, the power of the group cannot be ignored.

The influence of the Qianyu Guild radiates over a radius of tens of thousands of kilometers, with tens of thousands of formal members, hundreds of thousands of affiliated members, and millions of dependents. The resources obtained with the help of the group are beyond the imagination of ordinary people, and there are a lot of resources that can enhance personal strength.

For example, high-level flying sword magic weapons, Taoist books, high-level elixirs, natural treasures that can enhance innate attributes, etc.

If you have a high enough guild status, you can directly exchange these treasures with your guild contributions.

Especially the natural treasures and elixirs that can enhance innate attributes are very important to him.

His most important goal in the future is to join the immortal sect, otherwise his achievements in this life will be limited.

Because almost all the advanced Qi-refining techniques, sword techniques, thunder techniques, forbidden magical powers, flying sword magic weapons and other treasures in the other side are basically in various immortal sects.

In the outside world, the best skills that casual cultivators like them can usually obtain are advanced Qi-refining techniques, basic five-element thunder techniques, etc. Qi-refining techniques and basic sword techniques above the exquisite level, as well as forbidden magical powers are almost unseen.

A very obvious gap.

For example, the Ziyuan Qi Refining Technique he practiced was an intermediate Qi Refining Technique. Each level increased its Qi and Blood by +20, its Mana by +40, and its Spell Power by +20.

If you switch to the exquisite-level Qi Refining Mentality Method, each level you increase will increase your Qi and Blood by +40, your Mana by +80, and your Spell Power by +40, almost doubling the difference.

If you change to the supreme level Qi Refining Mentality, each level increase will increase Qi and Blood by +200, Mana by +400, and Spell Power by +200. How exaggerated is the difference?
When reaching the 100th level of Qi Refining, the intermediate Qi Refining Mentality increases Qi and Blood by +2000, Mana by +4000, and Spell Power by +2000, while the 100th level Supreme Qi Refining Mentality increases Qi and Blood by +20000, Mana by +40000, and Spell Power by +20000. What is the difference?
We are all level 100, but our cultivation levels are so different. How can we compare?
Low-level Qi-refining techniques can help one survive a natural tribulation, while top-level techniques can make one survive a natural tribulation with ten times more cultivation power.

This is the gap.

Therefore, Su Yu must find a way to join the sect, and he does not expect to have the supreme level of Taoism. Even the exquisite and mysterious level is much stronger than the current Ziyuan Qi Refining Art.

Of course, it doesn't mean that non-sects have no way to obtain top-level Taoist techniques. Indeed, there are indeed many senior immortals on the other side who have left behind advanced Taoist techniques, but they are too rare to come by. In comparison, joining a sect is simpler and more convenient than searching the world for the relics left by seniors.

The key goal is very clear and can be achieved as long as you become a disciple.
