Chapter 712: Chapter 389: Luofu Immortal Realm, 7 Strands of Golden Nature_2
One side working, one side cultivating.
He needed to quickly improve his cultivation, aiming to perfect his essence, energy, and spirit, and advance to a Golden Immortal.
Qingchan was also there, currently cultivating with Vast Sea and the four women from Xuanyue, so she wouldn’t feel lonely with so many companions.
The Star Master stayed deep in the chaos, refining the twisted nest.
It was worth mentioning that as the Star Master further advanced to Da Luo, the speed of refining this twisted nest significantly increased. It originally required thousands of years of refining, but now only a few hundred years, even less than a year with a thousand-fold time difference, ten times faster.
Several months had already passed since the Star Master’s advancement, meaning the refinement of this twisted nest was imminent.
When Su Yu arrived in the depths of chaos, he saw the Star Master cloaked in a cloak of stars, enveloped in starlight within the chaotic region, with only a round table-sized portion of the twisted nest remaining, glimmering with gold in the darkness, appearing as dark gold overall.
He curiously asked:
"How many gold essences can be refined?"
The Star Master replied:
"About seven strands."
Su Yu nodded, casually inquiring:
"Normally, how many gold essences can a Golden Immortal refine after a kill?"
"Two or three strands."
He exclaimed in surprise:
"So few? Then why does this one have seven strands?"
The Star Master smiled and said:
"Because in chaos, everything is isolated."
"If it were outside, no matter how strong the array was, it couldn’t guarantee that not a trace of gold essence would be lost, and with several hundred thousand years, or even longer using a large array outside, much of the gold essence would be worn away by then."
"Oh."
Su Yu looked at the twisted thing the Star Master was suppressing, suddenly waved, and summoned a sword, causing the Star Master to instinctively tilt back.
Immortal Trapping Sword!
"Let me strike it!"
He raised his hand, and a frightening Immortal Trapping Sword Qi flew out, slicing into the twisted nest in a flash.
The twisted nest shook violently, the Immortal Trapping Sword Qi erupted into countless fine Sword Qi infiltrating the twisted nest, instantly dividing the round table-sized twisted nest into billions of parts, the dark inside quickly dissipating, visibly shrinking a large circle.
"Let me recover before continuing."
Although the Immortal Trapping Sword Qi was powerful, it also consumed a lot of mana.
He currently had 25 billion mana, but to unleash a sword energy of the Immortal Slaying Four Swords required 20 billion mana, allowing him to only unleash one strike.
Revealing his true chaotic form, he directly absorbed the energy of chaos, quickly replenishing his mana, once again wielding the sword to slash down another Immortal Trapping Sword Qi.
The twisted nest trembled again, shrinking once more.
"Hold on, one more time."
Thereafter, Su Yu continually rested and then attacked, one after another, striking ten in a breath, nailing the twisted nest that was the size of a round table down to the size of a basketball.
"Almost done."
The Star Master smiled and said:
"With another year, I can completely refine it."
"Alright then."
Su Yu put away the Immortal Sword, sat cross-legged in the nearby chaotic vast sea, continuing to cultivate.
In the chaotic realm, a year passed in the blink of an eye, awakening from his cultivation to the Star Master’s call:
"Realm Master, mission accomplished!"
He opened his eyes, the Star Master holding a bright mass of golden light flying over.
Throwing it over, the golden light like a golden sun approached.
Reaching out to catch it, understanding flooded his heart.
"Seven strands of gold essence."
He considered for a moment, pointing a finger, causing the golden sun to shake and split into seven fist-sized golden suns, subsequently collecting them one by one.
Adding the previous one, he now held eight strands of gold essence.
He could refine several strands of gold essence for himself or his subordinates once their essence, energy, and spirit were perfect, gathering the five Qi in the chest and three flowers atop the head, rapidly condensing gold essence.
One or even ten strands of gold essence aren’t enough for a Profound Immortal to advance to Golden Immortal, but they can complete the critical 0 to 1 breakthrough.
Unfortunately, none of his subordinates are qualified to advance to Golden Immortal yet, whether it’s that Profound Immortal true dragon, Profound Immortal water-avoiding rhinoceros, or the four women from Xuanyue and Vast Sea, all are far from perfect essence, energy, and spirit.
Human civilization’s few Profound Immortals aren’t enough either. The last transfer to the Celestial Court had a late-stage Profound Immortal among the human race, but he is still far from perfection.
Chaos holds no account of years, time passing quickly. When Su Yu emerged from the chaotic realm four years later, four millennia had passed within. Qingchan, fully accumulated over three thousand years, had endured through the supply of massive resources and innate clear energy, as well as the chaotic energy sorted by Vast Sea, forcibly cultivating the Ninth-Turn Primordial Art to completion beyond the ninth layer.
Ninth-Turn Primordial Art corresponds to Eight-Nine Profound Arts, completion bestows sainthood upon the body.
True Immortal perfect Qingchan’s physical strength was no less than the four women from Xuanyue at the same realm, with even higher magical damage, and coupled with her extraordinary Swordsmanship, without counting innate spiritual treasures, the four women from Xuanyue couldn’t necessarily defeat her.
Upon returning to Celestial Pillar Mountain, Su Yu assisted her in applying for a Tribulation Crossing Platform.
A month later, she successfully crossed the True Immortal Tribulation, advancing to Profound Immortal.

After advancing to Profound Immortal, she possessed two middle-grade spiritual treasures, two mid-grade spiritual treasure-level flying swords, her overall strength no less than a veteran Profound Immortal.
Although she didn’t have a top-grade spiritual treasure, her two mid-grade spiritual treasure flying swords were personally refined by her master Wudang Saint Mother, with an excellent foundation, and the Power of Heavenly Dao obtained during her tribulation was all infused into these two flying swords, significantly enhancing their power.
That is, two swords, if only one, it could definitely advance to top-grade spiritual treasure-level flying sword.
However, she didn’t need to wait for her to advance to Golden Immortal for this to happen. In her free time, she could place the two flying swords into the chaos to temper, and after refining for hundreds of thousands of years, they would advance to top-grade spiritual treasure-level flying swords.
If done outside, this would surely take a long time, but within the chaos realm’s thousandfold time flow, it would only be a few thousand years, which she could afford to wait.
After Qingchan crossed the heavenly tribulation, Su Yu and Qingchan left Celestial Pillar Mountain riding a colorful spiritual deer, flying towards the outside of Luofu Immortal Realm.
As they flew, they checked the regional channel, leaving him clicking his tongue.
"It’s completely erupted."
The most recent messages in the regional channel indicated that within these short four years, the two races’ war had entered an all-out melee stage, with more than twenty island groups similar to Blue Mountain in the Wood Race engulfed in war.
In these four years, the two races had exploded into two major battles, both completely won by the Half-Spirit People.
The first major battle occurred two years ago, when the Wood Race dispatched over 1,100 Celestial Immortals, more than 30 True Immortals, and three Profound Immortals.
But the Half-Spirit People astonishingly appeared with over 3,000 Celestial Immortals, nearly 100 True Immortals, and six Profound Immortals.
The second battle was even more incredible, with the Half-Spirit People revealing over 6,000 Celestial Immortals, over 200 True Immortals, and more than 10 Profound Immortals, crushing the Wood Race with overwhelming force.
In these battles, the number of Celestial, True, and even Profound Immortals deployed by the Half-Spirit People shocked all races, knowing that the Human Race currently had only four registered Profound Immortals, 32 True Immortals, and just over 2,000 Celestial Immortals.
Even including masters dispatched across the Earth Immortal World, there might be at most only one or two Profound Immortals, 20 or 30 True Immortals, and probably under a thousand Celestial Immortals, far fewer than the Half-Spirit People.
Speculations ran rampant in the regional channel, positing that perhaps the Half-Spirit People had obtained some heaven-defying opportunity to produce so many experts above Immortal rank.
Additionally, so far, there were no Golden Immortal appearances among the Half-Spirit People.
After the second major battle, experts from various races that had come to fish in troubled waters investigated the Half-Spirit People’s territory, yet found no traces of a Golden Immortal, though the possibility of their existence hasn’t been ruled out to date.
"No wonder they dared to suddenly start a full-scale war; with similar overall power but several times more high-level forces, it’s indeed possible to wage an extinction war."
Qingchan, sitting in his arms, was also watching the regional channel, then asked:
"Husband, do you think they have Golden Immortals? If our Human Race were to fight them, do we have a chance of winning?"
Su Yu laughed and said:
"Whether they have Golden Immortals or not, if we fight, we’ll surely win."
She tilted her head, contemplating briefly before nodding:
"I think so too."
