I died young at the start, but I'm reincarnated with unlimited skill points!

The night wind howled, and the spiritual energy within Black Wind Valley was thrown into chaos by the oppressive force in mid-air.

Upon hearing this, Su Hao, who was in mid-air, paused slightly.

His single, bloodshot eye was fixed on the figure in plain clothes standing with his hands behind his back below, as if he was trying to search for that face in his memory.

A moment later, an incredulous look of astonishment appeared on Su Hao's face, which resembled that of a demon.

"Su Tian?!"

He never expected this.

The remnants of the Su family, who live and thrive in this desolate wilderness, are locked in by the Bloodline Compass.

It turned out to be that spineless dog that used to wag its tail and beg for mercy from back then!

What he found even more unacceptable was the undisguised magical energy emanating from Su Yu at that moment.

The Great Perfection of the Ninth Level of Qi Refining!

"You, a piece of trash with a ninth-grade inferior root, actually managed to cultivate to the ninth level of Qi Refining?!"

Su Hao's voice became somewhat sharp due to jealousy and astonishment.

For fourteen years, this prodigy, who was supported by the entire clan, suffered a fate worse than death during the Foundation Establishment stage, and his cultivation regressed.

And the dog that was under his feet back then has actually cultivated peacefully in this paradise and reached the peak of the Qi Refining stage!

Despite Su Hao's loss of composure, Su Yu remained calm and composed.

"Cultivating immortality is about cultivating fate. It seems that the young clan leader has had a rather unfortunate fourteen years."

Su Yu dusted off his sleeves, his tone flat and without any inflection, yet every word was like a knife, precisely cutting through Su Hao's fragile fig leaf.

"Back then, they used the clan leader as a human shield and stole the entire clan's resources. They thought the young clan leader could make a name for himself in the cultivation world of Yue Kingdom."

"I never imagined that forcibly consuming an inferior Foundation Establishment Pill would destroy my Dao Foundation like this."

"Now, like a stray dog, he relies on a third-rate bloodline demonic art to seek out his fellow clansmen to prolong his life."

Su Yu looked at him, his deep eyes revealing an appalling coldness and condescension.

"Young clan leader, do you really think you're doing right by the way you acted, lest you show any remorse to the uncles and elders of the main branch who died for you back then?"

Dead silence.

These words contained no emotional outpouring; they were simply a statement of fact in the most neutral tone.

But for Su Hao, whose self-esteem was extremely distorted and whose psychology was already pathological, this was a different story.

This compassion and insight that comes from someone who was once a nobody is more powerful than any magic spell.

"Shut up! Shut up!!"

Su Hao was enraged, his eyes turning bloodshot and his features completely distorted.

"You, a dog I used to raise, dare to lecture me?! I am a Foundation Establishment cultivator! I am the true prodigy of the Su family!"

Su Yu snapped the string of reason with remarkable precision.

Su Hao completely abandoned the spiritual probing and ruthless scheming that a high-level cultivator should possess.

"boom!"

He clasped his hands together abruptly, and a surge of violent Foundation Establishment true essence transformed into a blood-red giant hand several meters in size, carrying the power to destroy everything, and slammed down from mid-air towards Qianlong Manor.

Faced with such an offensive, Su Yu had no intention of confronting it head-on.

With a single step, he retreated back into the manor gate as if shrinking the distance between himself and the ground.

At the same time, he formed a hand seal with one hand.

"rise."

The second-tier spirit-gathering array, which had been lying dormant beneath the mountain villa, instantly changed its formation, switching from "gathering" to "defense".

A thick, pale golden light curtain rose from the ground, like an inverted glass bowl, protecting the entire manor within.

"Bang--!"

The crimson giant hand slammed heavily onto the light screen, unleashing a deafening roar.

The light screen trembled violently, rippling like waves, but it withstood the blow.

"A second-tier grand formation?! Let's see how many spirit stones you can afford to waste!"

Seeing that his attack had failed, Su Hao became even more agitated.

He hovered in mid-air, his crimson magic seals raining down on the array's light barrier like a storm.

The entire valley rumbled under this attack.

At the center of the array, Su Yu sat cross-legged, his hands steadily manipulating the array plate, his face as calm as still water.

He didn't even look at the seemingly precarious light screen.

All attention was focused on Su Hao in mid-air, through the array's perception.

He was observing the limits of Su Hao's body's ability to circulate magical power.

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

After three consecutive, all-out, heavy blows, the array's light barrier dimmed slightly.

But just as the third bombardment landed, Su Yu keenly sensed a slight abnormality in Su Hao's aura in mid-air.

The violent bloodthirsty true essence showed a very slight stagnation at the Qi Sea position on Su Hao's left side.

It's like a river bursting its banks, only to be stopped for a moment by a hidden reef.

Although it was only half a breath, Su Hao quickly and forcefully mobilized his true essence to suppress it.

But this detail made a cold, deadly glint flash in Su Yu's eyes.

He did not rush to act, but continued to stabilize the formation, silently enduring the attacks.

Three more heavy blows.

"boom!"

The Qi Sea point on my left side is stagnant again!

Su Yu had thoroughly figured out the weakness of the inferior Foundation Establishment Pill's poison backlash.

Forcibly activating his magical power caused Su Hao's Dao foundation to be unable to withstand continuous overload operation.

After every three heavy blows, his true energy must flow back and replenish itself at the dantian.

"The defense of a second-tier spirit-gathering array cannot withstand the endless consumption of energy by a Foundation Establishment cultivator."

Su Yu's mind was as clear as a mirror.

Since we can't stop him, let him in.

Just as Su Hao was preparing to unleash his next attack.

Su Yu subtly flicked his fingertip across the array plate, deliberately severing the magical power transmission from the two spirit stone nodes in the northwest corner of the outer courtyard.

"Snap!"

The already trembling pale golden light curtain emitted a crisp cracking sound at the northwest corner, splitting open a gap two zhang wide.

"The formation has been broken!"

Upon seeing this, Su Hao, who was in mid-air, had an intense look of ecstasy and greed in his eyes.

The backlash from the erysipelas in his body was on the verge of exploding.

Seeing the flaw in the light screen, he didn't think twice.

As long as he rushes in and devours the essence and blood of hundreds of blood relatives inside, he can not only suppress his injuries, but even rebuild his Dao foundation!

"Die!"

Su Hao let out a scathing laugh and, without hesitation, transformed into a streak of blood, following the opening and directly charging into the outer courtyard of Qianlong Manor.

At the heart of the formation.

Su Yu watched as Su Hao plunged headfirst into the jar like a shark smelling blood.

He slowly stood up, waved his sleeve, and deactivated the defensive array.

"Zheng—"

The Qingfeng sword was drawn.

With his long sword in hand, Su Yu moved like a gray ghost towards the outer courtyard.
