Wizards in the world of cultivation

Chapter 154 The Origin of the World: Conquering the World
The secret realm inside the Wizard Tower is currently mostly empty, and Su You has not yet moved any materials inside.

The main secret realm is still a bit too low-level and cannot support higher-level power, especially since the secret realm he opened is attached to the wizard tower, which is inherently weaker in terms of carrying capacity.

If it were a secret realm within the normal world, although entering it would be suppressed, its carrying capacity would be several levels higher.

Therefore, Su You specifically selected three secret realms in the center and prioritized their resource supply, allowing them to advance to large-scale secret realms first.

A large-scale secret realm can normally accommodate those at the Golden Core stage, which is sufficient for their initial use.

At that time, Su You will open a wizard academy inside the secret realm to develop and cultivate talents within the wizarding system.

In addition, some outstanding students from the Immortal Cultivation Academy can be sent to the Wizard Academy to learn about other systems and spark their inspiration.

Su You hopes to cultivate talent that integrates the advantages of both systems.

Because spiritual energy was prioritized for the three smaller secret realms in the center, the secret realms were expanded to their maximum size in just two days.

This small secret realm now consists of a blank space that is ten miles high and one hundred miles long and wide.

It's impossible to expand any further; it's reached its limit. Even if Su You continues to pour out spiritual energy, it will only settle within the space.

The secret realm attached to a magical artifact has this drawback.

Unlike the world, which has the ability to absorb, transform, and expand on its own, even if a large amount of spiritual energy is poured in or a large amount of resources are transported in, the world will slowly digest it on its own and then increase the world's depth and foundation.

Secret realms are different. They are simply spaces. If a secret realm is attached to the world, it can evolve various possibilities by relying on the power of the world, and may even absorb the power of the world to improve itself.

However, the secret realms that rely on magical artifacts are different. Either the internal space may evolve as the quality of the magical artifact increases, or you need to invest a lot of resources to help it evolve.

That's exactly what Su You is doing now.

Investing in fourth-tier spatial artifacts is no longer effective in advancing a small secret realm to a medium-sized secret realm; fifth-tier spatial artifacts are now necessary.

Fortunately, Su You had previously exchanged some fifth-tier spiritual items in the Tongtian Vine World, which could now be put to good use.

One, two, three...

It wasn't until the sixth spatial artifact was added that the inner secret realm suddenly expanded, and the upper limit of the secret realm was finally opened once again.

"Six spatial spiritual items can only upgrade a small spatial secret realm." Su You shook his head helplessly.

He had only exchanged for a dozen or so fifth-tier spatial spiritual items before, and the rest was only enough to upgrade one more secret realm.

After upgrading the second secret realm once again, Su You clearly felt that there was a slight tremor inside the entire Wizard Tower, especially at the moment of the upgrade.

After thinking for a moment, Su You realized that the problem lay with his magic weapon; the grade of his wizard tower was simply too low.

Although it uses extremely high-quality materials, the interior is entirely made of Tier 4 materials.

However, its carrying capacity also has an upper limit; a medium-sized secret realm is already the upper limit that a magic weapon of this level can withstand.

This is also because Su You's innate wizard tower is solid and has a deep foundation. If it were an ordinary third-tier magic weapon, it would have been torn apart by the medium-sized space long ago.

But it doesn't matter, for now, two medium-sized secret realms are enough for Su You to use.

Even if he wanted to further improve the secret realm, he wouldn't have the ability now.

As the saying goes, even a clever cook can't cook without rice; he had no spatial materials at all, so there was no way for him to improve.

"Looks like I need to go and get some treasures." Su You's eyes flickered.

……

The Heavenly Vine Realm, with its branching vines.

When the space at the branching vines reopened, Su You leaped in and entered.

The next moment, he fell to the top of a branch of vines in the secret realm.

Looking down from high above, the environment of this secret realm is similar to that of the Great Wilderness Secret Realm.

It was all a wild, undeveloped area.

If this were a previously developed secret realm, this area of ​​the Heavenly Vine would have been occupied long ago, and even the exit from the Heavenly Vine World would be guarded.

His men had explored hundreds of branching vines, and in most places, various races guarded the passages to their own worlds.

Such a world is the most difficult to develop, after all, the other party has already entered the world of the Heavenly Vine and come into contact with a wider world, so it is inevitable that their strength will increase.

If the person comes from a minor world or even a microscopic world, they are not a threat. However, if they come from a middle world with a higher potential, they have the ability to threaten him.

The place Su You is currently in should still be an undiscovered treasure trove.

However, the most important thing now is to leave the secret realm and start scouting the outside world.

Because he was going to create his own secret realm, Su You had a good understanding of the knowledge about secret realms. He had studied both the cultivation of immortality and the wizardry in detail.

This kind of secret realm that relies on the world can only be left by breaking through the void if one's strength is strong enough; otherwise, one must abide by the operating rules of the secret realm to leave.

After confirming that he would need another twenty years to leave the secret realm, he departed directly for another branch of the vines.

Time is precious, and although he has a long lifespan, he will not waste it on waiting here.

After exploring six branching vines, Su You finally found the closest world he could enter.

He selected a suitable location within the secret realm and set up the array. Once the secret realm reached the nearest point, he quickly activated the array, which teleported him out.

……

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Having just entered the world, Su You witnessed the eruption of several supervolcanoes, spewing out countless streams of lava.

Floating in mid-air, he could clearly see that the land of this world had long since disappeared, replaced by volcanoes of all sizes.

The entire world had become a world of lava, and a massive root system stretched from the sky down into the depths of the earth.

"The Heavenly Vine has actually extended into the world? Does this world have no strength left to resist?" Su You was somewhat surprised.

Generally speaking, the branches of the Heavenly Vine only lurk in secret realms, quietly absorbing spiritual energy and stealing a little bit of the essence. But what he saw now was branches of vines taking root in the world.

Clearly, Su You quickly made a judgment based on the situation below: this world was nearing destruction, its consciousness had fallen into silence, and it was powerless to resist.

Seeing this, he became excited.

He came here to explore the world in search of resources.

However, now that the highest-level resources were right in front of him, he couldn't help but be excited. "The origin of the world, I never thought I'd actually have a chance to obtain it." Su You made a decisive decision and immediately sacrificed his life to return.

Originally, given Su You's abilities, the probability of obtaining the world's origin was relatively low, unless he encountered a microcosm world, in which case it would be easier to conquer the entire world and then slowly steal its origin.

However, the world he has now discovered is on the verge of collapse. The protection of the world's origin is no longer very tight, and it has been riddled with holes by the branches of the Heavenly Vine. The chances of him stealing some of the origin are still very high.

The Origin of the World has many uses. Using it to directly enhance cultivation is the most wasteful. Other uses include repairing the Dream Butterfly Mirror, enhancing the secret realm within the Natal Wizard Tower, and so on. It can be said to be an all-around treasure.

He is rushing back now to bring enough materials to set up an array and perform the ritual to steal the world's origin.

After all, Su You's previous purpose in going there was only to find out some details about the world before considering how to send people there to fight.

"A year and a half, I wonder how long that world can hold out," Su You thought with a sense of helplessness.

He still needs to use the spatial passage of the Heavenly Vine to travel between different worlds.

However, he can't open this spatial passage whenever he wants. By the time he gets to that world, a lot of time will have passed.

"It seems we need to develop an interdimensional teleportation array as soon as possible." Su You tapped his fingers.

If he had an interdimensional teleportation array, he wouldn't need to wait such a long time; he could have teleported there directly long ago.

A year and a half passed quickly. After passing through two spatial passages, Su You once again felt the scorching heat of this world.

Very good! The world remains the same, only worse.

The magic array that steals the world's origin was already prepared before the time of return and has been fully set up.

Now, all it takes is to activate it, and we can steal the very essence of the world.

As Su You chanted his complex incantation, a beam of light shone from the magic array, piercing through the clouds and finally penetrating the void, reaching the interior of the world.

This is why the world is on the verge of destruction. Under normal circumstances, such a large commotion from the formation would definitely attract countless enemies.

This is why, to steal the source, one must first conquer all living beings in the world, so as to prevent them from causing trouble.

As wisps of essence drifted down from the space and eventually gathered in the center of the formation, Su You finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The theft of the world's origin is no longer a problem. Now, all we need to do is remain vigilant about the world's situation and prevent it from suddenly causing a world explosion that would prevent it from taking the world's origin with it.

"This world should be a small world, but unfortunately it was parasitized by the Heavenly Vine and slowly devoured in the end." Su You shook his head helplessly.

Even the world can end up like this, let alone cultivators.

A rough calculation suggests that this world can probably survive for another twenty years or so.

He felt that he should leave immediately after twenty years to prevent his calculations from being wrong.

Su You wasn't afraid of death, but he was afraid of losing these world origins.

After confirming the details, Su You sent a Nascent Soul cultivator who was completely enslaved by the twin clones to guard the Great Wilderness Secret Realm.

Anyway, there are no enemies here; the only enemy is the natural hazards of this world.

This is relatively easy to solve; simply ride the spirit boat and hover in the sky, and the danger will be greatly reduced.

Su You couldn't wait here for that long; he had more things to do.

After exploring the rest of the world, he planned to explore the secret realm that the Green Jade City Lord had mentioned.

It's best to get your hands on the second-generation Sky Vine seeds as soon as possible.

His belief was further strengthened after witnessing the Heavenly Vine devouring the origins of other worlds.

If Su You had such a Heavenly Vine, he wouldn't need to personally intervene to steal the source.

……

Three years later, in the Great Wilderness Secret Realm.

The massive army once again launched a war.

This time it's not the same bloodline sorcerer legion that entered the middle layer of the Tongtian Vine leaves before. That batch has already gained enough experience. Next, they just need to improve their bloodline strength step by step and wait for the bloodline potion to be distributed.

The bloodline sorcerer legion that went on this expedition had varying strengths, ranging from Tier 1 to Tier 2.

Fortunately, of the several worlds that Su You explored, the strongest was only the Micro Dust World. As long as he was careful, he could still manage to push through them smoothly.

"This place is truly a treasure!" Su You couldn't help but exclaim in his heart.

If it weren't for the Heavenly Vine connecting various worlds, how could Su You have collected the world's origin so early?

An Yun World is a very stable middle-thousand world. Even the previous invasion of demonic calamities, the frenzy of monsters, and the simultaneous arrival of hundreds of races were not too difficult for the entire continent or the entire world.

Stealing the origin of the world in such a world is an extremely difficult task.

However, his chances are still quite high when he encounters that kind of microscopic world.

In addition to the Bloodline Legion sorcerers, he also sent some Golden Core cultivators and Nascent Soul cultivators to provide support, making thorough preparations for the first plundering war.

Even after meeting with the City Lord of Green Yao and being persuaded by her several times, Su You still chose to take the risk.

Of course, for something this dangerous, beforehand, one would be given benefits—considered money to save one's life.
Whether you keep these benefits for yourself or pass them on to others is your own choice.

After thinking it over, Su You finally decided to exchange for a batch of fifth-tier spatial spiritual items and hand them over to the Nascent Soul cultivators who remained here.

Since he had already brought the Dream Butterfly Mirror into this world, with the Dream Butterfly Sub-Mirror, he could directly teleport the resources back.

There's no need to worry about being raided by alien races like last time.

……

After confirming that Su You was going to enter, Lü Yao quickly led him to the top floor, Ye Tian, ​​which was the highest world of the Tongtian Vine.

Green Demon's Secret Realm.

As soon as he entered the secret realm, Su You felt an uncomfortable sense of oppression.

With just one glance, he sensed an eerie atmosphere throughout the entire secret realm, from the inside out.

Within the secret realm, due to some unknown suppression, flight was impossible.

Su You could only rely on his own strength to move quickly.
