Three days later.
The sky was just beginning to lighten in the early morning.
Su Yu awoke from his meditation, feeling that his condition was at its peak. He nodded slightly, within his Dantian, three magic artifacts were being nourished with mana. With a thought, he summoned his mid-grade Vestment robe and put it on.
As he walked out of his room intending to notify his master, Su Yun, he saw Su Yun approaching with a jade bottle in his hand.
Su Yun handed the jade bottle to Su Yu, saying, “This is for you, Enchanting
Fluid. ”
“It’s a new potion I attempted to concoct using the formula for Beast Attracting Powder. It lacks the beast-attracting effects, but it has a strong enchanting effect.’
“The eagle at the late stage of the first level is not weak, but it won’t last long if it gets a sufficient amount of Enchanting Fluid.”
Having said that, Su Yun whispered, “Xiao Zhi only needs to hunt the Eagle to pass the inner gate examination. This task is not too difficult, and the effect of Enchanting Fluid is quite good. Otherwise, I would have prepared some poison for you.”
“We are Alchemists, and if we can solve things with medicine, it’s not a big
deal. ”
Su Yu was stunned.
Enchanting Fluid or poison…
Then Su Yu’s eyes shone brightly. Indeed, these were some really good things.
It was the same idea he had when using the Beast Attracting Powder to hunt the Rock Rat.
“Thank you, master.” Su Yu quickly accepted the jade bottle. Su Yun explained the use and duration of the Enchanting Fluid.
The Enchanting Fluid, when applied onto a magic artifact, could last for about the time it took an incense stick to burn.
Su Yu cautiously asked, “Master, does this Enchanting Fluid work on humans?”
Su Yun was taken aback, then looked at Su Yu meaningfully and said, “I’ve tried it myself, and it works.”
He tried it on himself—a really hardcore man!
Originally, Su Yu wanted to ask Su Yun for some advice on using poison and then ask for some guarantees, but time was running out.
“Master, I’ll be going first.”
After hastily bidding farewell to Su Yun, Su Yu met up with Su Qingyi and they left the Yunshan Market together, heading for the outside of Yunjian Sect’s mountain gate.
As they walked, Su Qingyi quietly said, “If you encounter any dangers, you can rely on me. I can’t guarantee that I can help Young Miss kill the Eagle, but I should be able to ensure your safety.”
Su Yu looked at Su Qingyi in surprise.
With a natural look on his face, Su Qingyi whispered, “If Young Miss can make progress in the inner gate of Yunjian Sect, it will be a great benefit to our Su
Family.”
“Not to mention anything else, the Foundation Establishment Pills and materials that have been monopolized by various major forces are not something that an ordinary cultivator family can afford.”
“If our Su Family wants to stand firm in River City and deal with the Lin Family, we need to have a Foundation Establishment elder.”
Of course, there was something else Su Qingyi didn’t say.
This was also paving the way for his or their future breakthrough into the Foundation Establishment Realm.
“I understand.” said Su Yu.
Foundation Establishment Realm is the greatest bottleneck for over ninety percent of Qi Refinement cultivators. There is none bigger. But major cultivation forces like Yunjian Sect could control various cultivation forces or Loose Cultivators simply by monopolizing Foundation Establishment Pills and their materials.
At present, the Su Family was seeking to acquire Foundation Establishment Pills, but sometimes, even if they have Spirit Stones, it does not guarantee that they could buy these pills or get the materials to make them.
Based on Su Yu’s current training speed, it would take at least several decades for him to consider breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Realm.
He wasn’t too worried about a bottleneck.
But others can’t-
Honestly speaking, the family elders were good to him, and he couldn’t just be a white-eyed wolf and leave them alone.
It might have been different if he were an outsider.
But he is a member of the Su Family. He is Su Yu.
Right now, he wasn’t able to put aside everything else and focus solely on cultivation.
They arrived at the outer gate of Yunjian Sect.
Not long afterward, Su Zhi, Li Shinan and Chen Sisi came out. Led by Su Zhi, the five of them quickly moved towards the habitat of the Eagle.
Shortly after the group entered a wasteland, a figure emerged, looking in the direction where the five of them disappeared, his eyes icy cold.
“Su Zhi, Su Yu, Su Qingyi… to eliminate the three brats of the Su Family at once, I want to see how you, Su Peng, will dare to act arrogant!” The man gritted his teeth and growled in a low voice.
After waiting for a while, he followed at a distance.
Half a day later.
Under a towering mountain piercing the clouds, Su Yu and the others had been waiting for more than an hour, finally spotting the hunting Peregrine Falcon flying back to its mountain nest.
Just as Su Zhi was about to speak, Su Yu took out a jade vial and whispered, “This is a mind-bewildering potion, it’s a medicine prepared by our master, which has a mind-bewitching effect, even on late-stage first-order monsters.”
“We will first smear the mind-bewildering potion on our magic artifacts. When the time comes, we wait for an opportunity to attack the Peregrine Falcon, mainly using the potion to take it down.”
Su Zhi, Li Shinan, Chen Sisi, and Su Qingyi all looked at Su Yu in surprise.
Mind – bewildering potion This?
Seeing that several people’s gazes were strangely fixated on him, Su Yu blinked and whispered, “As an alchemist, it’s normal to use some potions, right?”
Su Zhi covered her mouth trying not to laugh.
Li Shinan smirked, nodding in deep agreement, “Makes sense.”
Chen Sisi covered her mouth and watched Su Yu, finding it quite funny.
On the side, Su Qingyi took the jade vial and began to apply the potion, muttering to himself, “How did I not think to use potions? How stupid.”
Su Qingyi’s magic artifact was a golden seal, of unknown rank, with a slightly strange aura.
Su Zhi’s magic artifact was a light blue flying sword, its aura indicated it was a medium-rank magic artifact.
Li Shinan and Chen Sisi each had two lower-rank magic artifacts.
After they had applied the mind-bewildering potion, Su Yu applied it to the Red Luo Blade and Ice Soul Needle and concealed them in his sleeve.
Su Zhi spoke under her breath, “You all must try to restrain the Peregrine Falcon as much as possible. I will be in charge of capturing it. Be careful, you need to stop the Peregrine Falcon from fleeing and guard against its counterattacks.”
Su Yu and the others nodded quietly.
Following Su Zhi in the lead, the five of them suppressed their auras and quietly moved up the mountain to approach the Peregrine Falcon’s nest.
When they were near the summit and saw the giant nest in the canopy of a massive tree tens of feet high, their faces became solemn.
It wasn’t noticeable from afar, but upon closer inspection, the Peregrine Falcon’s nest was truly enormous, twice the size of a typical house in the marketplace.
Approaching the humongous tree, upon Su Zhi’s slight nod, Su Yu, Su Qingyi, Li Shinan, and Chen Sisi launched their attacks simultaneously, aiming to trap the Peregrine Falcon in the nest.
Wood Vine Technique!
Buzz!
Upon Su Yu’s attack, the branches and twigs around the Peregrine Falcon’s nest burst into a radiant green light, transformed into countless vines in an instant, covering the entire nest like a wooden cage.
Surprisingly, Chen Sisi could use a rare ice-attribute spell. As the cold spread, the entire crown of the tree seemed frozen.
Su Qingyi used the common Wood Vine Technique. However, as the golden seal magic artifact emanated light, the vines were covered in a metallic gleam extending through the gaps in the wooden cage Su Yu created, trying to ensnare the Peregrine Falcon directly.
Li Shinan was enveloped in an earth-type mana aura. He stared closely at the nest in the tree crown, shouting, “Condense!”
Buzz!
In an instant, the entire nest turned into a giant rock.
Perhaps due to the effect of Chen Sisi’s ice-attribute spell, the Peregrine Falcon was half-beat late to react. Su Yu and the others used all their strength to pull the nest down from the tree.
As its home fell to the ground, the Peregrine Falcon inside let out an enraged cry, “Screeeeeech!!”
“Boom!”
The cage formed by Su Yu and the others was instantly torn to shreds by the Peregrines Falcon’s claws.
However, just as the Peregrine Falcon was about to escape, Su Zhi threw two advanced first-order ice talismans, while Su Yu tossed out two advanced first-order Cloud-Breaking Arrow talismans.
The ice talismans had the effect of freezing and solidifying the enemy, reducing their reaction speed.
The advanced first-order ice talismans had a great effect on late first-order monsters, not to mention that Su Zhi used two at once.
Bang!
With the blast of the ice talismans, the Peregrine Falcon’s body was immediately covered in frost, causing it to hesitate.
At that moment, the two Cloud-Breaking Arrow talismans attacked. They combusted in mid-air, turning into two piercing arrows that tore through the sky, quickly passing through the Peregrine Falcon’s wings, blasting two large bloody holes in it.
Su Zhi was shocked; she hadn’t expected Su Yu, her cousin, to pull out two advanced first-order Cloud-Breaking Arrow talismans.
However, her reaction wasn’t slow. The moment the Peregrine Falcon was wounded and frozen, her medium rank flying sword shot through the air, twinkling with a cold light and, just like that, it penetrated the Peregrine Falcon’s body via one of the bloody holes.nove(l)bi(n.)com
The next moment.
Su Qingyi’s seal, Su Yu’s five Ice Soul Needles, and the magic artifacts of Li Shinan and Chen Sisi all entered the Peregrine Falcon’s body through its wound..
