Wizards in the world of cultivation

Chapter 167 Teleportation Storm
The tribulation of vital energy is the true enemy of cultivators.

This is merely a minor spiritual tribulation for ascending to the Spirit Realm, which can be triggered at any time. With a decent magic weapon, even a cultivator in the early stages of the Nascent Soul realm can easily overcome it.

However, the lightning tribulation is simple and offers no benefits. Unlike the tribulation of vital energy, it does not provide a cleansing of vital energy to the body after passing through it.

Su You didn't gain any benefit, but he took a risk and used the lightning tribulation to temper his body, finally breaking through the physical barrier.

Just as the thought flashed through his mind, a golden light enveloped his body.

Su You's body was uncontrollably flying upwards.

“Something’s not right…” Su You’s expression was uncertain.

Although he had just consumed a lot of elixirs, he couldn't recover his physical body in a short time.

The current situation is one of passive ascension, and it's unclear what will happen next.

However, under the influence of the laws of heaven and earth, Su You had no way to respond and could only follow the guiding light to fly towards the void above.

Fortunately, he hadn't used much magic or mana before, and layers of barriers surrounded him to prevent any unexpected situations.

It would be such a pity to die here after getting to this point.

Su You continued to rise, his speed increasing until he finally disappeared into the void.

He was not unfamiliar with the utterly dark void around him; in fact, he was very familiar with it.

These voids are spatial passages, which are very common in the world of the Heavenly Vine. He often uses spatial passages to travel between places, so he wasn't flustered.

The only difference was that this time the passage took a long time, a full two days, and we were still inside the spatial passage.

In the past two days, Su You has recovered with the help of the medicinal pills. His entire body has been restored, and now his physical body is emitting a soft white light.

This is the result of cultivating one's physical body to a certain level, with a body as white as jade and bones as hard as metal.

Such a body, if it dies naturally, would take at least ten thousand years to decay naturally in the outside world.

After his physical body recovered, Su You finally had the time to observe his surroundings.

He is currently flying rapidly under the guidance of the spiritual light, and he doesn't need to fly at all.

He was still very curious about this, since this kind of guidance method didn't exist in the wizarding world.

In that other world, if someone in a subordinate world of the Wizarding World cultivates to a certain level and wants to enter the Wizarding World, they can only do so through an interdimensional teleportation array.

This method of guidance is indeed a way to discover talented cultivators from the lower realms.

After all, to be able to cultivate to this level, one must possess extraordinary talent, whether in cultivation ability or in other aspects.

These cultivators undergo rigorous selection processes to provide the upper realm with more and better talents.

Su You is very interested in this model.

Although the cultivation academy model is good, it can only mass-produce cultivators. In addition, due to its policies, the academy places more emphasis on research in various specialties than on the development of combat power.

Most soldiers, including researchers and teachers, now use bloodline potions.

Bloodline potions offer rapid early-game progression with shortcuts, but the difficulty increases significantly as you progress.

Furthermore, bloodline potions also have limitations. Once a certain bloodline potion is used, it is extremely difficult to switch to another one, and the cost of switching is enormous.

If a first-tier bloodline potion is used, then subsequent bloodline potions must be of the same bloodline.

If these bloodline medicines are not of the same lineage, they will become ineffective due to rejection after use.

It's also thanks to the fact that Su You mainly uses the bloodline of wild beasts to refine bloodline potions.

In the world of the Heavenly Vine, wild beasts are relatively common, making it easier to find higher-level wild beast essence blood.

If it were a monster, the difficulty would be even greater.

However, one day, these cultivators will also reach their limit. After all, the higher the level, the less essence blood there is, not to mention finding the corresponding wild beast. It will be very difficult to advance in the future.

This is also what Su You said: Bloodline sorcerers have limited potential. They can serve as cannon fodder or ordinary soldiers, but they are not good enough to be the main combat force.

He will definitely expand and reform the cultivation academy in the future.

Because he doesn't have much power right now, he's forcing things to grow too fast. But once he reaches a certain level of strength, he'll need to carefully select outstanding talents and help them improve through their own cultivation.

They even let their own worlds within their own wizarding world roam freely, only spreading out some scriptures, allowing for natural selection based on survival of the fittest.

However, the matter of guiding spiritual light involves the laws of the interface, which is beyond his current level of cultivation to understand.

However, Su You still wanted to be a substitute.

That's the Heavenly Vine!
All that's needed is to set up some traps on the Heavenly Vine. Only cultivators who pass through the Heavenly Vine can step into the Upper Realm. This can be considered a basic selection process for cultivators below.

The journey through the spatial passage was very long, seemingly endless.

Su You remained calm and composed, sitting cross-legged and waiting quietly.

……

Twenty-one days later.

"Are we finally going to get out?" Su You looked at the light ahead with some anticipation.

He hadn't expected this journey to be so long. Whether it was because the two worlds were too far apart or for some other reason, it was still unknown.

Su You didn't intend to investigate further. Now that he was about to leave, he had already set up layers of protection on his body to prevent any accidents.

Boom!

Su You felt his body lighten, and he flew directly out of the cave entrance. The feeling of being pulled away disappeared.

As soon as he left, a powerful water pressure pressed down on his body, and the spiritual light around him burst continuously.

Su You looked around, then flicked his finger, and a point of light appeared on the seabed, directly covering an area of ​​dozens of miles.

"It actually appeared in the sea. Is this guidance random?" Su You looked at the surrounding scenery.

He could sense that this world was completely different from any world he had ever set foot in before. There was greater pressure here, and it was much more difficult to control the spiritual energy of the surrounding world.

His current location wasn't exactly safe either. Although he had scanned the area with his divine sense and found no apparent danger, the sheer pressure of the seabed was enough to put him under considerable strain. Even his fifth-tier protective gear couldn't withstand this pressure, highlighting the perilous depths of the ocean.

However, Su You did not leave immediately; he seemed to have some recollection of this place.

The surrounding ruins and undulating, broken mountains all foreshadow the extraordinary past of this place.

"This seems to be the former headquarters of the Dream Butterfly Sect!" Su You said with certainty after flying around the area.

Although he had never been here before, the images he had previously obtained contained information about the Dream Butterfly Sect. He had also just checked some historical maps and records of the Dream Butterfly Sect through his clone, and confirmed that this was indeed the former site of the Dream Butterfly Sect.

However, the changes to this old site seem to be too great. You have to know that the Dream Butterfly Sect was once on the mainland, but now it is submerged at the bottom of the sea. It is truly a case of the sea turning into mulberry fields.

After a rough search, no treasures were found to remain, given how many years had passed.

Moreover, if this was the passageway that guided people to the previous world, then this place must have been ransacked by these 'ascended beings' many times over.

He would search carefully if it were the former site of the Lingbao Sect, but the former site of the Mengdie Sect would be of no value.

Since it was of no value, Su You did not linger. He transformed into a white light and sped through the seawater, quickly flying upwards.

The pressure at the bottom of the sea is indeed very high. He had just tried it and found that simply using his physical body to withstand it would still cause damage to his body. If there was nothing else to do, this place would be a good place to train his physical body.

However, now that we've arrived in this world, the first thing we need to do is investigate the situation here.

He flew underwater for two full hours before leaping out of the sea.

The ocean here is unpredictable in its depths. He is now at the Nascent Soul stage and has been flying for two hours. Two hours is enough time for him to fly a distance of 100,000 miles.

The sky was a deep blue, the air carried a hint of the sea's saltiness, and as far as the eye could see, there was the azure ocean.

Su You scanned the surrounding area for thousands of miles with his spiritual power, but found no cultivators. He could only randomly choose a direction to fly in.

Rumble!
He had only flown less than 100,000 miles when he saw a huge storm a thousand miles ahead, covering an area of ​​thousands of miles in radius.

Even from this distance, he could feel the terror of the storm; the storm that swept across the heavens and earth seemed capable of tearing everything apart.

The enormous roar of the storm made his eardrums vibrate, and the sound waves kept cutting into his body.

Although it did not harm him, he could indeed judge the power of the storm based on that.

This is not a place he can reach right now.

Su You quickly steered his escape light and headed in another direction.

Having just arrived in this world, I mustn't fall into danger.

He even used the twin clone's talent to judge good and bad fortune.

"How do I get back? What bad omens are there? Where is the danger?" Su You's heart was pounding with a sense of impending danger, but no matter how he scanned with his divine sense or tried to get away, the feeling of danger persisted.

"Is this really the Spirit Treasure Great Thousand World? Where in the original territory of the Dream Butterfly Sect was there such a dangerous place?"

Just as Su You had this thought, a huge storm suddenly surged from the seabed and instantly enveloped him.

Danger is here!
He finally discovered the cause of the danger, but it was too late to avoid it; he was completely swallowed up by the storm.

This storm is smaller than the previous one, but its internal power should not be underestimated.

As soon as he entered, he felt a biting, bone-chilling cold.

The raindrops inside scraped against his body like knives. After realizing that his body couldn't withstand the rain for the time being, Su You used a protective shield to shield his body.

If that were all, Su You could still bear it for the time being, but within this storm, there seemed to be a demonic sound constantly howling, which had a huge impact on his sea of ​​consciousness.

His mental strength was also constantly resisting the intrusion of the demonic sound.

Unfortunately, Su You's mental power was limited, so he directly crossed time and space to borrow the mental power of the twin clones. The clones also continuously replenished their mental power using their natal wizard tower and pills, and then borrowed it back.

However, compared to the endless, almost incessant demonic sounds within the storm, his spiritual power was far too insignificant. After enduring for three hours, Su You fell into a coma.

The original magical protection vanished, leaving him at the mercy of the storm, his entire body swaying in the wind.

“It’s out of control…” The twin clones looked a little grim.

His spiritual sea had fallen into a state of stillness, so he was unable to observe the situation there, or even perceive the condition of his physical body.

The only thing we can do now is to transfer some soul-nourishing pills and continuously transfer spiritual energy to prevent the spiritual energy there from being completely depleted.

Of course, the only thing he can be sure of right now is that the original body is not dead yet. If it were to die, he would be able to find out.

The Sea of ​​Demonic Sounds.

This is a strange ocean in the Lingbao Great World, a natural wonder formed after a battle.

There is a special force field in the depths of the ocean that keeps this area in a state of constant turmoil.

No one knows when a terrifying sonic storm will strike the ocean here.

Furthermore, it is impossible to determine the scale of the sonic storm that originated here.

It should be noted that the strongest storm ever to occur in the Heavenly Sound Sea was so powerful that it even caused the death of a powerful being at the Tribulation Transcending Realm, demonstrating the terrifying nature of this storm.

Of course, what's terrifying about the storm here isn't its power, but the terrifying demonic sound hidden within it. No defense can withstand it; it can penetrate deep into a person's soul, leaving them to be worn down.

However, everything has its own vitality.

This storm also has a limited duration; generally, a storm only lasts for one day before disappearing back into the ocean.

His mental strength is barely holding on thanks to the constant support from his clone.

Su You was relatively lucky this time. His physical body couldn't withstand the erosion of the storm, but because of the Heavenly Silkworm Life and Death Transformation, he was constantly teetering between life and death.

They die and are reborn, then die again, finally entering the last barrier.

This time, the silkworm's pupal state during its life-and-death transformation finally activated its teleportation ability.

Because Su You himself is already unconscious, this ability will be passively activated.
