Xiuxian: But It's Not a Game

Chapter 311 Successfully Transcending Tribulation, Heavenly Dao Divine Power Reversing Yin and Yang, Ancient Dragon Bloodline (6K)

The sea of ​​fire was endless, and the red dragon relentlessly pursued the great sun.

The sea of ​​fire surged and crashed against the Crimson Dragon, each strike drawing away a sliver of power from him and constantly hindering his progress.

Su Yu initially tried to push forward despite the flames, but soon realized that charging forward like this would consume a lot of her strength and make it difficult to reach the sun. So she began to consciously avoid the waves of fire and keep moving forward.

At this moment, Su Yu suddenly realized that the endless sea of ​​fire was the bloodline space of the Crimson Dragon, and that great sun was the current limit that the Crimson Dragon's bloodline could be explored.

How far one can fly represents the extent to which one's bloodline can be explored.

Time passed, and after flying for an unknown amount of time, the Crimson Dragon finally rode the wind and waves, crossed an unknown sea of ​​fire, and arrived before the great sun.

The sun hung high in the sky, shrouded in mist that obscured the view beyond. A faint golden light emanated an irresistible aura. Su Yu knew that this was the greatest benefit she had gained from this bloodline transformation, and without hesitation, she plunged into it.

"boom!"

The golden and red fireball exploded, turning into countless golden and red fragments that disappeared into the red dragon.

In that instant, Su Yu felt a profound power surge into his body along with the fragments, and he realized that a dragon-related divine power bestowed by his bloodline was slowly emerging.

But at that moment, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in Su Yu's mind, like lightning cleaving through the fog of this world.

Then the red dragon trembled, and Su Yu's will was so shaken that he could not move.

In the instant the mist parted, he caught a glimpse of a colossal, indescribable, and immeasurable being swirling deep within it.

"This is???"

The enormous being appeared to be asleep and motionless, and the mist that the spiritual light cleaved through lasted only a moment before it was quickly submerged again.

But just as the mist was about to close again, Su Yu vaguely sensed a slight fluctuation in the great being, and then a beam of light flew out from the mist that was about to close and shot into his body.

Golden flames suddenly burst forth from the red dragon's pupils, rapidly spreading from the inside out throughout its body, instantly transforming it into a burning dragon.

"Prompt: You have tapped into your ancient bloodline and successfully awakened the supreme dragon divine power—the Ancient Dragon Primordial Spirit Dharma Form, the Great Wilderness Ancestral Dragon Claw."

Dragon Clan Divine Power - Ancient Dragon Primordial Spirit Dharma Form (Supreme): Transforms into an ancient dragon, with 1000% increase in health, mana, physique, strength, speed, and spell damage. Characteristics: Great Wilderness Dragon Language, Immovable as a Mountain, Ancient Dragon Body, Ancient Dragon Metamorphosis.

Lasts 120 seconds, with a 1-year cooldown.

Great Wilderness Dragon Language: The Great Wilderness Dragon Language communicates with the origin of all laws, greatly accelerating the casting speed and reducing mana consumption by 80%.

Immovable as a mountain: The dragon's body stands between heaven and earth and will not topple.

Ancient Dragon Body: Immune to all laws of the world that are one realm above or below oneself, all resistance levels are increased by 1 based on one's own realm, all trait levels are increased by 1, and damage reduction is adjusted to 75%.

Ancient Dragon Metamorphosis: You have received the blessing of the Ancestral Dragon, and your bloodline has begun to metamorphose into an Ancient Dragon. Current progress: 1/100.

Dragon Clan Divine Power - Great Wilderness Ancestral Dragon Claw (Supreme): Your dragon claw's armor-piercing strength is increased by 1 at your current level. It ignores all restrictions and defensive characteristics, dealing full damage. Power increased by 100%. Additional characteristic: Sky-Splitting.

Sky Rift: Your attack can tear through space, breaking through all defensive restrictions and barriers below the current realm +1, lasting for 60 seconds, with a 24-hour cooldown.

"So, the great being slumbering behind the mist deep within that bloodline is the legendary Ancestral Dragon?"

Su Yu looked at the two dragon-related divine abilities on her panel, but her face didn't show much excitement.

Having read countless ancient fantasy novels in my past life, I know that when an ordinary cultivator suddenly comes into contact with certain ancient beings, it's not necessarily a good thing.

"Could it be that the First Emperor also wants to participate in this great calamity of the era?"

Although the Ancestral Dragon was not a Primordial Great Luo Saint, he was still one of the most outstanding beings below the Saint level. Although he disappeared after the Dragon-Phoenix Calamity, it does not mean that he perished.

As the progenitor of the dragon race, having reached that level of cultivation, he would not completely perish as long as the dragon race survived, and would have the opportunity to make a comeback as long as the time was right.

For example, every great calamity in the world is a crisis, but it also contains opportunities.

Su Yu was unaware of the deeper implications, but one thing he was certain of was that if the Ancestral Dragon also participated in this great calamity, and if he invested in advance to select a person to be chosen to stand out in this calamity and attain the Hunyuan Daluo realm, he would have the ability to awaken the sleeping Ancestral Dragon.

"But why was I chosen?"

"Could it be that my time travel was actually orchestrated by a powerful figure behind the scenes?"

"But that's impossible. If there really is a big shot behind this, why haven't we seen them helping us yet?"

Su Yu carefully took stock of her current abilities and treasures. Looking back on her more than 20 years of cultivation, apart from the cheat code in her mind, the only things that could possibly involve the pawns of powerful figures were the Zhenhai Pearl and the Canghai. Although other magical treasures and supernatural powers were powerful, they were not yet at that level.

Well, the Nine Heavens Battle True Body barely qualifies, but the Nine Heavens Bone Forging Technique, the supreme divine power unleashed by the Nameless Dao Book, is indeed quite incredible.

The Nine Heavens Battle True Form should be related to the Heavenly Court.

And Zhenhai Pearl and the vast sea.
He couldn't immediately think of any big shot he was connected to.

"Damn, am I overthinking this?"

Moreover, considering these things now is completely meaningless. If my transmigration is indeed orchestrated by a powerful figure behind the scenes, I can't resist it now, nor is there any need to. Being used as a pawn by a powerful figure is a kind of luck. After all, if a powerful figure designates me as a pawn, there must be a mission involved, which requires me to have sufficient strength. This means that my future achievements will definitely not be low.

Having figured this out, Su Yu pulled herself together and began to examine the other rewards for this tribulation.

"Hint: You have successfully survived the Heavenly Tribulation and are now free to take on any human form."

"Prompt: You have successfully survived the Great Tribulation of Heaven and Man, and you have gained 108 Heavenly Dao Powers."

"Hint: You have successfully survived the Great Tribulation of Heaven and Man. You can choose one of the following rewards to improve yourself. If you survive the highest difficulty, the Nine-Nine Great Tribulation of Heaven and Man, you can choose an additional reward."

"Reward 1: Choose one of the following supernatural abilities. Please click to view details."

"Reward 2: Level of one designated supernatural power +1."

"Reward Three: Fire Law +10 (Note: Cannot exceed +30)"

"Reward 4: Receive an additional 100 Heavenly Dao Powers."

"Reward Five: Gifts from Heaven and Earth - Choose one magic weapon to upgrade its grade by one level."

"Reward Six: Master an additional Law and upgrade it to +20. You can choose one of the following Laws."

"Reward Seven: All attributes +100%"

Su Yu's gaze swept over the many rewards, and she first clicked to view reward one and reward six.

Reward 1 contains five Heavenly Dao Divine Powers, namely:
Returning to Heaven and Returning to the Sun (Heavenly Way): One can see through all the heavens, illuminate the entire Jambudvipa world, and know all past causes and effects without any obstacles.

Flying and Leaving Traces (Heavenly Way): Hidden within heaven and earth, roaming the four seas, unknowable, unsearchable, unobservable, existing in the world, yet unseen by the world.

Mending the Sky and Bathing the Sun (Heavenly Way): Possesses the great power to repair the heavens and earth and purify all things.

Reversing Yin and Yang (the Way of Heaven): This can cause Heaven and Earth to lose their order, and the sun and moon to lose their normal course. It is like reversing right and wrong, and confusing black and white. It is called the Divine Prison Heavenly Tribulation, which is the reverse journey of all things, and the turning of Heaven and Earth upside down.

Flowers bloom in an instant (Heavenly Dao): A thousand golden flowers bloom above the head, adorned with tassels and pearls, in an endless stream, radiating brilliant light. This is the protective method of auspicious clouds.

Without hesitation, Su Yu's first choice was to reverse Yin and Yang.

This Heavenly Dao Divine Power has the longest description, so it must be the strongest.

Next is Reward Six, which also contains five laws: the Law of Metal, the Law of Wood, the Law of Thunder, the Law of Slaughter, and the Law of Life.

After pondering for a moment, Su Yu ultimately chose the Law of Life.

This is also a T1 level law, second only to T0 level laws such as time, space, fate, and cause and effect.

Unlike other rewards that only provide temporary benefits, the Law can be used for a long time.

Since passing through the Heavenly Tribulation and becoming an immortal, Su Yu has realized that the core of the realm above the Heavenly Immortal is the law, and all combat methods above the Immortal realm are applications of the law.

Having made all the choices, a ray of life light emerged from the Crimson Dragon Cocoon, combining with the Law of Flame to transform into the Flame of Life, which burned upon the Cocoon.

The two immortals from Dragon Turtle City, watching from afar outside the Tribulation Platform, showed expressions of surprise:
"That's quite interesting. They didn't choose anything else, and they know how to choose a law, especially a powerful law like the Law of Life."

The old immortal stroked his beard and nodded:

"The Law of Life enhances survivability, while the Law of Fire compensates for combat power. The combination of the two is extremely compatible. It's good. The question is where he will place the power of origin bestowed by the Heavenly Dao. If he places it in the right place, this dragon will have a chance to advance further in the future."

The middle-aged immortal standing to the side also nodded and said:
"It's hard to say. It depends on whether this dragon has any lineage. If it doesn't, then we don't know how to best guide it."

As they said, Su Yu was indeed struggling with how to allocate the remaining 108 Heavenly Dao Origin Powers inside the cocoon.

This thing is versatile; you can use it anywhere, and you can even use it directly to add points and improve attributes.

If you allocate points to Life, 1 point of Heavenly Origin Power can increase the maximum Life value by 1 million, which is incredibly powerful.

Although Su Yu didn't know how to allocate points, she knew that allocating points to attributes was a complete waste.

Character: Supreme Dragon Transformation (Mythology)

Level: Level 300.

Race: True Dragon (Ancient Dragon in the process of metamorphosis, 1/100)

Fire-based Divine Powers: All Fire-based Techniques (Laws), Fire-based Control (Law), Innate Fire Escape (Law), Innate Fire and Thunder (Law), Burning the Heavens and Boiling the Seas (Law).

The Divine Powers of the Laws of Life: All Laws of Life, Control of Life, Light of Life.

Bloodline Divine Powers: True Dragon Bloodline (Red Dragon), Ancient Dragon Primordial Spirit Dharma Form (Supreme), Great Wilderness Ancestral Dragon Claw (Supreme).

Supernatural powers: Swallowing clouds and spitting out mist, summoning wind and rain, moving clouds and bringing rain, lightning and thunder, thunderous force, overturning rivers and seas, shifting stars and changing constellations (the Way of Heaven), reversing Yin and Yang (the Way of Heaven).

Spells: Lightning spells, fire dragon breath, Soul Devouring and Spirit Fusion Technique.

Special features: Transformation, bloodline metamorphosis (Ancient Dragon), realm suppression (Celestial Immortal).

Regardless of the law, after becoming an immortal, the minimum level to be raised is +20. If it exceeds 20, it will be improved somewhat, but it will not exceed +30 at most.

Su Yu was familiar with the other supernatural powers and laws, but he mainly focused on the newly emerged transformation and the True Dragon Primordial Spirit (Pure Yang).

Transformation: After passing the Great Tribulation of Heaven and Man and becoming an immortal, you will automatically gain the ability to transform into human form, cancel the cooldown of Supreme Dragon Transformation, and can switch between your true form and Supreme Dragon Transformation at any time, but the total duration of Dragon Transformation each month will not exceed 150 minutes.

"Hmm, this works." The power hasn't increased, but the flexibility of use has undergone a qualitative change. From now on, there's no need to consider when to unleash the ultimate move; you can use it whenever you want.

The reason why the True Dragon's Primordial Spirit has the suffix "(Pure Yang)" is that it has overcome the Nine Heavens and Human Tribulation, and its Primordial Spirit is Pure Yang.

Pure Yang Primordial Spirit is generally only possessed by True Immortals, which means that as long as he raises his level to 399 and meets other conditions, he can directly break through to True Immortal.

To put it bluntly, it's like getting a True Immortal Pass in advance, but it doesn't actually increase your strength.

After reviewing the attribute table, Su Yu pondered for a moment and began to have ideas about how to use these 108 Heavenly Dao Origin Powers.

First, he tried to add the power of the Heavenly Dao to the ancient dragon's bloodline.

The result was an increase of 10 points, but the Ancient Dragon bloodline transformation progress only increased by 1. This means that it would take a full 1000 strands of Heavenly Dao Origin Power to quickly transform the bloodline into an Ancient Dragon.

"Okay, this won't work."

Su Yu decisively changed her mind and focused her primal power on the laws of time.

As a result, it couldn't be activated; the Heavenly Dao Power gained from the tribulation could only be applied to the Crimson Dragon.

Su Yu glanced at the Law of Flame and the Law of Life, and ultimately chose the Law of Life, since one can only deal damage while alive.

He consumed 10 points of Heavenly Dao Origin Power in one go, and his Life Law increased by one point, becoming +21.

"That's pretty exaggerated."

But having made his choice, Su Yu did not hesitate. He continuously poured all the power of the Heavenly Dao into the Law of Life. Waves of invisible law fluctuations surged, and the profound mysteries of the Law of Life emerged in his mind and were engraved on his Pure Yang Primordial Spirit.

As his mastery of the laws improved, his understanding of the laws of life deepened, and the abilities derived from these laws became stronger.

This isn't shown on the attribute panel, but it is indeed constantly improving.

All 98 strands of Heavenly Dao Origin Power were invested, raising the Law of Life to over 29 points in one go.

"It's still a little worse."

Without hesitation, Su Yu took out two of the eight Heavenly Dao Origin Powers he had stored to replenish the power, increasing his Life Law by 30 and successfully comprehending a new Life Law Divine Power—Resurrection (Law).

Resurrection (Law): Can revive mortals who have been dead for no more than 12 hours. Can be used once a day.

These mortals are collectively referred to as those who have not yet become immortals; even a level 299 Earth Immortal is still a mortal.

It includes not only natives, but also various monsters, and even players can be resurrected.

The premise is that the player still retains a physical body. Players who have been completely shattered and whose bodies have not even turned to dust cannot be resurrected. Furthermore, if a player has been resurrected after more than half an hour of death and their physical body has been reshaped by the cycle of reincarnation, they cannot be resurrected either. Moreover, resurrected players will not lose any lifespan.

At this point, the Crimson Dragon's tribulation was complete.

"Roar!"

The sphere of light, brimming with life, suddenly shattered inch by inch, and an incomparably crimson dragon soared into the sky, stretching its enormous body freely in the air.

Having just survived the great tribulation of heaven and man, its size reached 120 kilometers. Its entire body was covered in translucent, crimson scales, within which flowed crimson light. A rich life force mixed with flames, transforming into a life fire that flowed across its body.

"powerful!"

"Unparalleled power."

At this moment, Su Yu finally understood the despair he felt when he encountered those level 300 super BOSSes on the road. They were too abnormal, and their strength was not even on the same level as those below the Immortal level.

No wonder the Celestial Tribulation is called the Great Tribulation of Heaven and Man. Celestial Immortals are the true immortals, while Earthly Immortals are just mortals. The difference between them is simply too great.

While there might be challenges between Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment, and between Golden Core, there are essentially no challenges between immortals and mortals.

The only possibility is that the immortal is extremely weak and might fail; under normal circumstances, you wouldn't be able to damage them at all.

Having fully experienced the state of the Crimson Dragon, Su Yu moved his mind and the Crimson Dragon quickly shrank, eventually transforming into a tall figure and leaving the Tribulation Platform as a stream of light.

Only after his figure completely disappeared did the two immortals inside the tribulation platform exchange bewildered glances. One of them belatedly said:

"This doesn't seem like a true dragon in human form."

Hmm, it doesn't seem so.

"They're quite like those who have awakened their destiny."

The two celestial beings remained silent for a moment, then immediately spoke to their disciples behind them:
"Quickly check his registered name and background to see if he has a master."

Outside the tribulation platform, Su Yu met up with Qing Chan. Qing Chan looked him up and down and said:

"I never imagined that the changes in your avatar could be reflected back to your true form!"

Su Yu was surprised:

"Is it obvious?"

"It is clear."

"That must be because you just went through your tribulation. It won't be so obvious after a while."

He already possessed that ability when he underwent his first Great Heavenly Tribulation to establish his foundation. His true form was proficient in all the laws of the Crimson Dragon, while his human form was proficient in all the magical arts and supernatural powers of the Supreme Dragon Transformation, though the power of those arts was somewhat weakened.

Therefore, when the Crimson Dragon transcends its tribulation and gains all the new abilities, its true form will basically retain them all.

This includes the greatly enhanced fire and life laws, various divine abilities based on laws, bloodline divine abilities such as the Great Wilderness Ancestral Dragon Claw, and the new Heavenly Dao divine ability of reversing Yin and Yang.

Upon returning to his residence, Su Yu entered the Zhenhai Realm and immediately transformed back into a red dragon, practicing all his divine abilities one by one to familiarize himself with their effects and power.

But not long after the drill began, they received a telepathic message from Qingchan:
"My lord, someone is looking for you."

He emerged from Zhenhai Realm and exclaimed in surprise:
"Who is looking for me?"

"He is an immortal from the Dragon Turtle Immortal City."

He arrived at the front hall in surprise and saw two human immortals sitting there, both at the Celestial Immortal realm. He quickly clasped his hands and bowed.
"Junior Su Yu greets the two senior immortals."

The two immortals smiled and waved their hands, saying:

"Please get up."

"May I ask your esteemed names, and what business do you have with this junior?"

The old immortal chuckled and said:

"I am Yu Xian, an elder of Dragon Turtle Immortal City."

Another middle-aged immortal also introduced himself:
"I am Li Wen, also an elder of Long'ao Immortal City. I saw someone undergoing the Heavenly Tribulation on the Tribulation Platform who was extraordinary. I never expected that it was you, young friend. I was delighted to see you and came to ask if you have a master."

Su Yu immediately replied:

"I have just arrived in the Immortal Realm and have not yet become an apprentice. I plan to go and become an apprentice when the various sects open their gates in a few months."

"Is there any agreement with any sect?"

"not yet."

"That's good."

The two men smiled, stroked their beards, and continued:
"Let me be frank. We see that you have extraordinary talent, and on behalf of our sect, we would like to invite you to join our sect. If you do join, we can guarantee that you will become a formal disciple of our sect and recommend you to our True Immortal Elders."

Su Yu was stunned for a moment. He had initially thought that the two immortals wanted to take him as their disciple, but he did not expect that they were just acting as intermediaries on behalf of his sect.

"May I ask which sect you two immortals belong to?"

The old immortal Yu Xianxian said:

"I come from the Xuanqing Shangzong sect, and am a descendant of Guangchengzi, one of the twelve Golden Immortals of the ancient Chan sect."

Li Wen said again:

"I come from the Tongxuan Sect, and am the chief disciple of the Xuanmen Sect, a disciple of the Grand Master Xuandu."

"Uh"

Su Yu fell silent for a moment.

He had seen these two sects in the information; they were considered above average among many sects, which was not bad, but they did not meet his requirements.

These two sects are not among the twenty-seven sects that possess Xuanxian (mysterious immortals); the strongest members of these sects are only Zhenxian (true immortals).

But that's not the point. The point is that the information doesn't say that these two sects have ancient lineages.

Seeing that Su Yu remained silent for a while, Yu Xian asked first:
"Young friend, do you have any doubts? Please speak frankly."

“This junior has a real doubt. As far as I know, there are not many sects in the Azure Immortal Realm that possess ancient lineages, and it seems that there are no Xuanqing Shangzong or Tongxuanmen among them.”

Li Wen listened and then asked with a smile:

"Where did you get this information, young friend? It's certainly incomplete. Our sect's founder listened to the teachings of Grand Master Xuandu for a thousand years, so it's only natural that we belong to the lineage of Grand Master Xuandu."

The old immortal Yu Xian also nodded and said:
"Our sect's founder was a disciple of Guang Chengzi, the Golden Immortal of the ancient Chan Sect. However, our sect has declined and its reputation is not well-known, but our lineage is genuine."

"I see."

Su Yu had already made up his mind. He clasped his hands in a respectful bow to the two immortals and said in a deep voice:

"This matter is of great importance. Please allow me to look into it carefully before giving a reply."

The two immortals nodded and said:
"This is a major matter and should be done in this way. There are still several months before the various sects open their gates, so young friend can take this opportunity to learn more about it. You only need to make a decision before the gates are opened."

"it is good."

One minute later, the two immortals who had become friends with Su Yu left.

Qingchan smiled sweetly:
"This is a pleasant surprise, if things turn out exactly as they predicted,"

Su Yu pinched the bridge of her nose and smiled as well:
“Indeed, if it is truly the lineage of these great masters, then choosing these two sects is not a bad idea.”

After all, directly joining the sect makes one a formal disciple, and they are even introduced to true immortal masters who take on disciples.

He was only at the Foundation Establishment stage, which was considered the second tier. True Immortals were three tiers above him: the Golden Core stage, the Nascent Soul stage, and the True Immortal stage. It was quite remarkable that he had become a disciple of such an immortal.

In the Azure Immortal Realm, the most powerful beings are sixth-order Profound Immortals.

However, there are so few Xuanxian (mystical immortals), and even fewer who are willing to take on disciples. The difficulty of becoming an apprentice is absolutely explosive. Even with his talent, he dares not say that he can successfully become an apprentice.

"Let's keep them as backup options for now. I'll post a bounty and find out more about these two factions."

He opened the regional channel and posted a bounty, with a reward of only 3 coins, similar to other bounties.

To be fair, these immortal coins are quite useful unless you're buying top-tier items.
