The elders also witnessed the violent aesthetics that Su Yu displayed.

They didn't find it absurd; instead, they all nodded in agreement.

"With this child's comprehension, forcing him to learn magic would truly be a waste of his talent."

"Using the vast true essence of a third-grade spiritual root to nourish the physical body, supplemented by body cultivation methods, to maximize strengths and minimize weaknesses, is an extremely clever and practical approach."

According to the elders' objective evaluation, Su Yu relied on his unparalleled physical strength to overcome all obstacles and secure a place in the top ten with remarkable ease.

The same goes for Tie Zhan; relying on his heavy black iron sword weighing several thousand kilograms and his well-trained muscles, he managed to break into the top ten.

However, the real spotlight of the competition did not lie with these two body cultivators.

In this year's sect competition, all the spotlight was completely overshadowed by two people.

The earth's spiritual roots lie in the vast expanse of Chu.

Lin Wan'er, a first-grade spiritual root.

The terrifying power of the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment was fully displayed in the battle.

When Lin Wan'er took the stage, she didn't even bring out any magical artifacts.

She simply made an extremely simple water-based spell with one hand.

In an instant, the water vapor above the arena gathered wildly, even triggering a resonance with the laws of heaven and earth within a radius of several miles.

The raindrops transformed into indestructible ice crystals, crushing the mid-Foundation Establishment elder to the spot with an almost overwhelming force, leaving him no room to resist.

Chu Tiankuo's battle was even more exaggerated.

He only used one sword.

That magnificent sword intent, perfectly aligned with the Dao of Heaven, directly severed the mid-grade defensive magic weapon of the gatekeeper elder, blasting him off the arena.

Early Foundation Establishment Stage: Crushing Mid-Foundation Stage!

The competition has come to an end.

Chu Tiankuo won the championship without any suspense, with Lin Wan'er following closely behind.

The sect leader personally bestowed upon them precious treasures and announced on the spot that the two would be established as the next generation of Nascent Soul seeds of the Cangxuan Sect, with a status equivalent to that of powerful elders in the inner sect.

Su Yu ranked seventh, and Tie Zhan ranked eighth.

This ranking isn't particularly impressive, but for Su Yu, the goal has already been achieved.

The day after the competition ended, Su Yu, holding the tokens of the top ten, walked into the treasure pavilion of the Cangxuan Sect without any hesitation.

He ignored the high-grade magical artifacts that radiated astonishing spiritual energy, as well as the rare jade slips that recorded ancient spells, and went straight to the side hall where rare and exotic animal materials were stored.

After presenting the token and deducting most of his remaining spirit stones, Su Yu received three jade cauldrons sealed with extremely cold ice crystals.

Inside the cauldron were the heart essence and blood of three low-grade, third-tier demonic beasts.

This was his real goal for this trip.

Ten years passed quietly in the daily tempering of his body with demon blood.

The heart's blood of a third-tier low-grade demon beast is extremely violent.

Even after being diluted by the array and neutralized by the elixir, the impact on the physical body is still like having tendons and bones pulled out.

It took Su Yu a full ten years to completely refine the essence blood within these three jade cauldrons.

He was forty years old, and his cultivation level remained extremely stable at the peak of the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.

The vast foundation built through the Earthly Foundation Establishment, combined with the "Savage Dragon Overlord Body Technique," brought his physical strength to an extremely terrifying level.

Even without circulating his true essence, he could still withstand ordinary mid-grade spiritual weapons with just the strength of his flesh and blood.

Within the inner sect, the spotlight of the past decade still belongs to those two individuals.

Chu Tiankuo, Lin Wan'er.

The potential of Heavenly Foundation Building has been fully realized with the allocation of resources.

Over the course of ten years, they crossed the barriers between the early and middle stages of Foundation Establishment without any hindrance, and both entered the late stage of Foundation Establishment.

They became the undisputed leaders among the disciples of the Cangxuan Sect of this generation.

And it was in the second month after Su Yu emerged from seclusion.

Deep within the cultivation world of the Southern Wilderness.

An ancient and vast azure light rose from a desolate wasteland without warning, piercing the sky.

The sea of ​​clouds on the horizon was torn apart.

The spatial barrier emitted a deafening roar, like thunder from the heavens, which reverberated for hundreds of thousands of miles.

The Great Wilderness Secret Realm has appeared ahead of schedule.

This is a blessed land left behind by an ancient Nascent Soul cultivator before his passing.

According to the established pattern, it should have started in thirty years.

However, the ancient restrictions had fallen into disrepair over the years, and the array patterns had collapsed, causing the secret realm to emerge prematurely.

Not only do rare flowers and herbs, and ancient medicinal herbs that have long been extinct in the outside world grow inside, but it also contains the supreme inheritance left by a Nascent Soul cultivator.

The news came as a blast of cold water poured into a pot of boiling oil.

The entire cultivation world of the Southern Wilderness was in an uproar.

The seven righteous sects of the Southern Wilderness, the six demonic lineages, and countless reclusive immortal cultivation families and rogue cultivators were like a pack of wolves that had smelled blood.

Countless flying magical artifacts and enormous spirit beast mounts blotted out the sky, frantically converging on the entrance to the secret realm.

In just a few days, tens of thousands of high-level cultivators gathered on the wasteland at the entrance to the secret realm.

The scene was incredibly grand, yet a deadly undercurrent was brewing.

Inside the main hall of the main peak.

The sect leader sat in the main seat.

Standing below were Chu Tiankuo and Lin Wan'er, as well as dozens of prodigies who had been urgently summoned.

The atmosphere inside the main hall was extremely solemn and somber.

"The Great Wilderness Secret Realm is protected by ancient restrictions."

The sect leader's gaze swept over the crowd below the steps, his voice steady and carrying a chilling solemnity.

"Only cultivators with a bone age under fifty and a cultivation level at the Foundation Establishment stage are allowed to enter."

"If anyone at the Foundation Establishment stage or above, or whose bone age exceeds the limit, tries to break through, the restriction will immediately trigger a backlash, unleashing a divine lightning bolt of annihilation that will instantly obliterate them."

However, if a Nascent Soul cultivator attempts to forcibly intervene with great magical power...

The core array patterns of this secret realm will instantly self-destruct, causing a complete collapse!

All the ancient opportunities and supreme inheritances within were completely buried in the spatial turbulence, and no one can obtain them!

This is why the higher-ups of the major sects in the Southern Wilderness could only watch helplessly from the outside.

Faced with the absolute ancient laws, even those Nascent Soul stage monsters who can summon wind and rain can only obediently follow the rules and place their hopes on the younger generation of geniuses.

The sect leader flicked his finger, tossing an ancient jade slip into the air.

The jade slip unfolded in mid-air, transforming into a screen of light that revealed general information about the interior of the secret realm.

"There are numerous medicinal gardens and scattered magical artifacts on the outer perimeter of the secret realm, while the secondary hall contains many elixirs and cultivation techniques."

The sect leader pointed to a magnificent palace phantom at the very core of the light screen.

"But these are all just scraps."

"The main hall at the core of the secret realm contains the complete inheritance of that ancient great power who directly pointed to the Nascent Soul Dao."

At this point, the sect leader's expression became extremely serious.

"But the test conducted by that ancient powerful being was extremely rigorous."

"Within the inheritance formation of the main hall, spiritual root aptitude is completely useless. Even if you have a heavenly spiritual root, if you don't meet the requirements, don't even think about taking a step inside."

"To receive the inheritance, one needs a certain state of mind, comprehension, and good fortune from the unseen world; all three are indispensable."

These three restrictions were introduced.

Chu Tiankuo and Lin Wan'er, who were standing at the very front, suddenly had an intense fervor in their eyes.

They are born blessed by the Great Dao, and from birth they have had endless opportunities, believing that they are never short of good fortune.

As for comprehension.

The foundation laid by the Heavenly Dao has already proven everything.

Su Yu, standing at the back, showed no change in expression.

He has the right mindset.

However, his comprehension is only average, just slightly better than that of ordinary people.

As for good fortune...

Even after adding points, there were only five points left. It was a bit lucky, but it certainly didn't qualify as a prodigy favored by heaven and earth.

Su Yu is a rational person.

These three extremely stringent assessment criteria effectively sealed his fate in the competition for the core inheritance.

In that meat grinder that gathers all the top geniuses of the Southern Wilderness.

They will only become stepping stones for others to fight for the inheritance, and lose their lives for nothing.

In a very short time, Su Yu had already set the tone for this trip to the secret realm in his mind.

Abandon the core main hall.

We will not compete with the peerless geniuses of the Southern Wilderness for that elusive Nascent Soul inheritance.

Of course, the main theme of the path to immortality is competition.

Although Su Yu did not intend to compete for the inheritance, he was determined to get all the other resources he could get his hands on!
