Chapter 163 Mysterious Silver Armor

Su Yu held her breath and gently took out a specially made jade bottle. Then she carefully collected the precious black water silver into it. Fortunately, although the bottle was heavy, it had a restrained nature and did not break the porcelain bottle.

After carefully storing the treasure, Su Yu took a deep breath, stripped to the waist, and stepped into the core area where the dark red baleful energy was most concentrated.

"Buzz!"

The moment he stepped inside, the terrifying geomagnetic gravity, combined with the scorching fiery aura, instantly crushed Su Yu like an invisible millstone. His skin tightened and turned crimson, and his bones groaned under the unbearable pressure, as if he would be crushed into dust in the next second.

"Black Prison God-Locking Stake, rise!"

Su Yu gritted his teeth, his feet rooted to the rock, his hands forming a mudra, forcibly adopting a stance for stance training.

"suck!"

As his chest and abdomen rose and fell, the surrounding fiery aura and the residual black water heavy silver essence in the air were swallowed into his belly like a whale sucking water, igniting the human furnace within his body.

"The inside of my body was suddenly turned upside down, and the roaring sound was incessant."

Under the hammering force of the geomagnetic pressure, with fire as the hammer and heavy silver as the material, the black stone armor on Su Yu's body began to undergo drastic changes.

The originally hard but slightly rough bluish-black armor began to crack and peel off layer by layer under the high temperature and heavy pressure, revealing the newly formed skin underneath. The new skin was more delicate and firm, and was covered with a layer of eerie, flowing silver luster.

pain!

The pain was like countless scalding steel needles piercing through his pores, dismantling and reassembling his flesh and tissue.

One hour — two hours —

Just as Su Yu felt his body was about to be crushed by this heavy pressure, a clear buzzing sound suddenly came from inside his body.

[Black Stone Body Tempering Technique Breakthrough to Minor Success Level]

[Martial Arts]: Black Stone Body Tempering Technique (Level 1) (Minor Success 1/10000)

Su Yu suddenly opened his eyes, a glint of shrewdness flashing in them.

He jerked his arms and his whole body trembled.

His original rigid and hard black stone armor completely disappeared, replaced by a layer of dark mercury-like skin.

When he moves his body, the muscle lines under that membrane ripple like flowing water, without any stagnation, and even give people a slippery visual illusion.

"This is the new ability of the Black Stone Body Tempering Technique at the minor completion stage: Mystic Silver Flowing Armor!"

"What a magical feeling—"

Su Yu touched his arm; it felt cold and tough, yet like a living soft armor, a clear improvement over the previous Black Stone Armor.

He drew the Mo Yuan sword, its sharp blade pointing towards his arm, and slashed it forcefully.

"Slurp"

Instead of the crisp sound of metal clashing, it emitted a strange scraping sound.

The instant the blade touched the skin, the layer of silvery-black light rippled slightly, as if an invisible hand had pushed the blade away. The sharp broken blade slid past without leaving even a white mark!

Immediately afterwards, Su Yu clenched his fist and slammed it hard against the solid rock wall beside him.

"Bang!"

The moment they made contact, the membrane hardened instantly, like the hardest armor. A deep crater was smashed into the rock wall, but his fist remained completely unharmed.

"When soft, it's like mercury, slippery and easy to handle; when hard, it's like a collapsing black rock, indestructible!"

Su Yu's eyes gleamed with ecstasy: "This Xuan Yin Flowing Armor is simply miraculous!"

"Compared to the pure hardness of the Black Stone Armor, the current Xuan Silver Flowing Armor feels more alive!"

Su Yu clenched his fist again, watching the Xuan Yin Flowing Armor automatically flow into his fist, giving it powerful strength and defense. He was immediately filled with confidence!

"With this Xuan Yin Flowing Armor, I should now have reached the power and defense of the third perfect acupoint. If I were to face Han Qinhu again, I could hold my own in a head-on battle without resorting to other means!"

"There's still some Blackwater Heavy Silver Essence left; we can't waste it. Let's continue body tempering!"

Su Yu once again assumed the Black Prison God-Locking Stance and began cultivating.

[Blackstone Body Tempering Skill Proficiency +50]

[Blackstone Body Tempering Skill Proficiency +30]

Half an hour later, the Blackwater Heavy Silver Essence was completely exhausted, leaving only the Fire Fiend Qi. The efficiency of body tempering dropped drastically, becoming no different from the enhancement effect of ordinary pills.

"That's about it. I've obtained all the opportunities in this place. Who knows how many years it will be before I can condense this Blackwater Heavy Silver again!"

Su Yu got up, put on his clothes, and summoned the control panel to check.

[Martial Arts]: Black Stone Body Tempering Technique (Level 1) (Minor Success 1200/10000)

"I've already reached a proficiency level of 1200, saving me at least ten days of arduous training. I'm satisfied!"

"We've been away for quite some time now; it's time to head back to Blackrock City!"

The treasure ship shuttles through the clouds, riding the wind and waves, going against the current.

Meanwhile, in the water on either side of the treasure ship, a dark shadow darted about like a fish, moving at an even faster speed than the treasure ship.

Su Yu swam left and right in the water, freely stretching his limbs, pushing his Azure Wave Fish Dragon Skill to its limit.

[Azure Wave Fish Dragon Skill Proficiency +10]

On the return journey, Su Yu did not waste any time, spending most of it cultivating the Azure Wave Fish Dragon Technique, hoping to break through to the minor completion stage.

However, Su Yu's cultivation speed for the Azure Wave Fish Dragon Technique has returned to normal, and he has not made a breakthrough even after returning to Black Crocodile Island.

[Martial Arts]: Azure Wave Fish Dragon Skill (Level 1300) (Proficiency 1/1500)

With so many people and eyes on Black Crocodile Island, Su Yu didn't want to reveal his strength, so he put aside the practice of the Azure Wave Fish Dragon Technique.

After returning the treasure ship to the Jiang family, Su Yu boarded a ferry and returned to the Black River Ferry Wharf, heading back to Black Stone City.

Blackstone City, Su Mansion.

Su Yu had just stepped off the carriage and onto the steps in front of the mansion when he paused slightly.

From the shadows at the alley entrance a hundred feet away, a figure was watching the Su residence. The moment Su Yu appeared, the person's heart raced, and their face was filled with astonishment. Su Yu glanced at them out of the corner of his eye and saw the person immediately lower their straw hat and turn to disappear into the complex alleyway.

"Is this person spying on the Su residence?"

After thinking for a moment, Su Yu decided not to alert the enemy and went straight into the Su residence.

Blackrock City, Ironclad Martial Arts School, room of Vice Master Xiong Wu.

Xiong Wu sat upright in the armchair, toying with two iron balls in his hands, making a clicking sound.

To his right stood his eldest disciple, Kou Xun, whose expression was somber. To his left stood Sun Yan, whose head was gleaming bald.

Looking at Sun Yan, there was no trace of injury. He was shirtless, his muscles were bulging like dragons, his skin had a faint bluish-black tinge, and his blood and energy were like a furnace, not yet released, clearly indicating that his strength was now far greater than before.

At the bottom of the steps, a disciple stood there, his face panicked and his voice trembling: "I report to Master Xiong that Su Yu—is not dead. I saw him return to the Su residence with my own eyes."

Upon hearing this, Xiong Wu and the other two reacted differently.

Xiong Wu remained calm, tapping lightly on the side of the chair with his fingers. "Not dead? What a lucky kid."

Kou Xun frowned and said, "You can go out now."

The disciple immediately became respectful and withdrew.

After he left, Kou Xun continued, "Master, should I go to Ghost Mist Island again? Why didn't they kill Su Yu? There's something strange about that."

Xiong Wu shook his head. "It's alright. Ghost Mist Island is just a bunch of pirates. We didn't expect much from them anyway. Since Su Yu, that ant, is so lucky, let him live a few more days."

At this moment, Sun Yan grinned widely, his face twisted in a sinister smile: "Master, it's good that you're not dead! Isn't there going to be a Lantern Festival in the city? How about I personally kill him on the arena then?"

Xiong Wu looked at his most prized disciple but didn't immediately agree: "How are your preparations for breaking through to the Flesh Refining Realm?"

Everything is ready!

Sun Yan twisted his thick neck, his bones cracking with a series of popping sounds: "My disciple has now perfected three acupoints, his qi and blood have reached their limit. His Iron Armor Technique has reached the peak of the third stage, and he has also mastered the Black Stone Body Forging Technique. With both combined, hehe, even if Cui Wanhe were to face me again, I'm confident I could crush him!"

Sensing the surging energy emanating from Sun Yan, Xiong Wu nodded in satisfaction.

Having mastered dual cultivation techniques, and even the Black Stone Body Tempering Technique, a Xuan-level technique, in such a short time, such talent certainly gives one reason to be arrogant.

"good!"

A hint of admiration flashed in Xiong Wu's eyes: "Since you can't let go of the idea of taking revenge yourself, then I will grant your wish. On the Yuandeng Tournament arena, just kill Su Yu! Use his blood to consecrate your breakthrough to the Flesh Refining Realm!"

"Hehe—this disciple understands!"

Sun Yan licked his lips, his eyes flashing with murderous intent: "Su Yu—you can't escape this time!"
