He glanced at the proficiency panel again.

“The Green Wood Year Ring Skill should breakthrough in two or three years, and in those two or three years, the Mysterious Land Thick Earth will probably reach the ninth level.” Su Yu took a gentle breath, suppressing his slightly surging emotions.
Foundation Establishment Realm!
If he broke through the Foundation Establishment Realm and then had the
Dragon Crocodile Puppet Beast promoted to the second tier medium grade— “At that time, I can even try to draw second tier medium grade talismans.”
A flash of sharp light darted across Su Yu’s eyes.
Enduring for many years.
By then, it would be time to settle some old scores.
For example, the Bai Family of Maple City.
Soon.
It would only take another two or three years.
“Continue cultivating.” Su Yu collected his thoughts. After he completed his daily cultivation, the proficiency of the Green Wood Year Ring Skill and several other cultivation techniques increased a bit more. He nodded in satisfaction. Shortly thereafter, Su Yu left the alley and headed towards the Dan Pavilion in the market area a few streets away.
Just as he entered the backyard, Yu Qianqing called out to him and handed him a letter. “Pavilion Master, a letter has arrived for you from Su Zhi.”
Su Yu took the letter and started reading. As he read, his complexion changed slightly. The letter described the state of the conflict between the righteous and demonic forces on Bahuang Ridge.
The Core Formation Elder of the Yunjian Sect had appeared on Bahuang Ridge following the initial battle and had joined forces with the Core Formation True Man of the Da Yue Palace to deal with the demonic cultivators outside the Da Yue Prefecture.
However, three months ago, the Core Formation Elder of the Yunjian Sect was ambushed and severely injured.
The First Elder of the Yunjian Sect, a pseudo-Core Formation strongman, had lost an arm and his strength had greatly declined.
To recover, it would take a considerable amount of time.
As for the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators, the Yunjian Sect had lost as many as eight in Bahuang Ridge.
Even though the number of demonic cultivators and robbers who were killed was higher, the loss of the Yunjian Sect was too great. At present, they had temporarily withdrawn from Bahuang Ridge and returned to the sect, announcing a five-year closure of the mountains and also closing the Yun Mountain Market.
Aside from this.
The letter also recorded the losses suffered by the Bai Yue Immortal City, Kaiyang Palace, Qin Family of Sword City, and Da Yue Palace, among others.
And those of the Yu Family, Huang Family, Jiang Family, etcetera.
Lastly, Su Zhi wrote her conjecture, which was also the suspicion of the
Yunjian Sect.
“This Golden Jade Fairy Gate relic may become the opening for the invasion of the demonic forces of the Nine Soul Demon Palace outside of the Da Yue Prefecture! ”
“It’s the demonic factions’ exploration of the Da Yue Palace!”
Does that mean that the Yunjian Sect had caught a glimpse of the signs at Bahuang Ridge and decided to retreat decisively, no longer willing to be cannon fodder for the Da Yue Palace?
Su Yu’s eyes were filled with shock and horror.
A few days later.
News about the Yunjian Sect closing its mountains and the great war between the righteous and demonic at Bahuang Ridge gradually spread to Bai Yue Immortal City. The cultivators in the city were astonished, and a solemn, somewhat frightened atmosphere began to spread within Bai Yue Immortal City.
Pill medicines, Talismans, Formations, and the likes became popular again, with Loose Cultivators rushing to acquire them, leading to soaring prices.
Even those Loose Cultivators who had left Bai Yue Immortal City returned, even if the entrance fee for the city had climbed to two low-grade Spirit Stones, and staying another day required two more Spirit Stones, they were still unwilling to leave.
Evil magicians are running rampant, and rogue cultivators are causing havoc. How could anywhere outside Bai Yue Fairy City be safe?
Half a month later.
Yu Ke’er came to the Pill Pavilion, her face serious as she said: “The Great Moon
Palace has made a move. The rumored Core Formation Realm peak-level Deputy Palace Master, Taoist Longyan, has gone to Eight Demons Ridge. On the day he arrived, he killed a demon cultivator in the Core Formation Realm.”
“The remaining demons and rogue cultivators were either killed or injured, those who could escape did. By now, they have already vanished without a trace on Eight Demons Ridge.”
Su Yu’s heart skipped a beat, and he quickly asked, “What about outside Eight
Demons Ridge?”
“Demons run amok, and some cultivators’ families have suffered. However—I’
Yu Ke’er looked at Su Yu and said, “The Su Family is okay. When the Yunjian
Sect closed its mountain gate, the Su Family also sealed off Cang Mountain.”
“With the defensive formation abilities of Su Family’s Cang Mountain, only a false Core Formation cultivator could possibly penetrate it.” “So, the Su Family is currently alright.’
Upon hearing this, Su Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“Any news about Blood Blade Cultivator Luo Bang?” Su Yu suddenly asked. Yu Ke’er was taken aback, then shook her head and said: “No.”
Feeling a bit disappointed, Su Yu then asked Yu Ke’er about more matters related to the Great Moon Palace, especially the Deputy Palace Master, Taoist Longyan.
Although Yu Ke’er herself didn’t know much, from bits and pieces of her words, Su Yu could derive the true dominant force of the Great Moon Palace is not simple at all.
The Yunjian Sect only has one Elder in the Core Formation Realm, but the Great Moon Palace has ten.
Above the elders, there are deputy palace masters, palace masters, and founders.
Their strength is far beyond what the Yunjian Sect can match.
Even if the Yunjian Sect suspect that the forces of dark magic outside the Great Moon Palace truly want to invade, they have to get past the Great Moon Palace first.
If the sky were to collapse, there would still be the tall Great Moon Palace standing firm.
“How is the Yu Family?” Su Yu then asked, showing some concern for the Yu Family, a single word of concern yet filled Yu Ke’er with satisfaction.
Yu Ke’er said: “We’re okay, only lost some beasts and two uncles from the main family, but it’s not a big problem.”
Her tone then shifted, as she looked at Su Yu, a slight smile on her face, she said, “However, the losses of the Jiang and Huang Families were significant.
Even if they gained some advantages from the ruins of the Golden Jade Fairy Gate, it’s estimated it will take them eight or ten years to recover.” That was indeed good news.
Knowing that the Great Moon Palace had quelled the demons and rogue cultivators on Eight Demons Ridge, Su Yu felt a lot more at ease.
On most days, he would stay in the Pill Pavilion guiding Yu Qianqing in alchemy, or discoursing with Yu Ke’er. As he has recently developed an interest in beast taming, if he had time, it would not hurt to become proficient in a side profession as a Beast Tamer.
In the following period, the popularity of pills, talismans, formations and other things in Bai Yue Fairy City didn’t wane, in fact, it became even more intense.
As the strong cultivators of the Great Moon Palace drove the demons and rogue cultivators out of Eight Demons Ridge, news often came of cultivator’s families being eradicated or a cultivator going missing, being targeted by rogue cultivators.
This was even more lethal to other cultivators, scaring them to death.
Under such circumstances, time slowly passed. Throughout the period that the Great Moon Palace was stationed, the exploration of the ruins of the Golden Jade Fairy Gate continued. Yet, without the interference of demons and rogue cultivators, the situation became much calmer. Before anyone realized it, over a year had passed.
One day.
Underneath Su Yu’s house in the alley, in the secret chamber,
Su Yu was multitasking. His Dao Body Automaton was autonomously devouring the quintessence of the materials needed for its upgrade.
After almost two years of devouring and refining, the aura of the Dao Body Automaton had grown much stronger.
Finally, after more than two hours, the Dao Body Automaton had devoured more than half of a Purple Gold Crystal Elemental Stone that weighed over three thousand pounds. As a bright purple aura was absorbed into the Dao Body Automaton in tiny strands, its aura subtly changed, and its appearance changed as well.
Buzz!
Su Yu, who was meditating nearby, was startled and stopped his cultivation. Opening his eyes, he looked at the Dao Body Automaton in surprise.
Upon sensing the changes in his Dao Body Automaton, Su Yu was overjoyed: “Did it advance to rank two intermediate level?”
