Chapter 237: Chapter 235: The Vanishing Immortal Qi, Su Qing’s Show of Might
The Abyss Sea.
A land rich in Spiritual Qi, and the very place where it is born.
Here, the ocean’s water is thirty percent Spiritual Qi.
But a land so rich in Spiritual Qi has its dangers.
The constant ebb and flow of nascent Spiritual Qi gives rise to many spiritual disasters.
Storms, Spiritual Rainbows, and Spirit Poisons—all formed from Spiritual Qi.
All of them appear in the Abyss Sea.
No one knows the ocean’s greatest depths.
Hence, it is called the Abyss Sea.
...
The Cangqing Family.
An Immortal from their lineage had once achieved Ascension.
The entire family possessed an Immortal Scripture, a direct path to the Great Dao.
The Cangqing Family.
All of its members possessed the bloodline of an Immortal.
Those whose bloodline purity fell below the standard—with fifty percent being the norm—were considered part of a side branch, their surname being Qing.
Those with bloodline purity at or above the standard were of the direct line, their surname being Cang.
Possessing an Immortal’s bloodline.
The most crucial benefit was the ability to pursue Cultivation even without a Spirit Root.
This was an extremely important advantage.
Most families and other races in the Abyss Sea were the same.
This was the reason why entire families could become so powerful.
An Immortal bloodline, coupled with an Immortal Scripture.
...
However, at this moment, every Cultivator of the Cangqing Family’s direct line was shrouded in gloom.
Because the Immortal Qi from the Immortal Stone...
had completely vanished.
All that remained was an empty, desolate world.
Without Immortal Qi, this world had already begun to wither.
The Tribulation Crossing Ancestor who had attacked Su Qing soon returned.
He was covered in injuries, and a smell of something burnt clung to his skin and hair.
He had returned to recover from his wounds. The pain from that Fire Dragon was excruciating, almost searing his very soul.
"Ancestor!"
"Ancestor!"
"Ancestor."
Upon seeing their ancestor, all the Cangqing Family Cultivators called out to him.
When the Tribulation Crossing Realm expert entered the world that the Immortal Stone had created, he was met with a scene of utter decay.
He flew into a rage on the spot.
The entire Cangqing Family trembled as a terrifying pressure swept out from him.
"Who did this?! Where did all the Immortal Qi go?!"
"Cangwu Order, get out here!"
An Entering the Void Cultivator appeared in an instant. He was the current family patriarch, and he emerged with a pained expression.
"Ancestor, please calm your anger! Calm your anger!"
"The Immortal Qi in this world... just yesterday, this world that was once brimming with Immortal Qi was suddenly emptied in a single instant."
"We have tried many methods but have no idea why this happened," Cangwu Order said, his face still etched with misery.
’It wasn’t the family’s fault. The Immortal Qi just vanished on its own.’
Cang Qingjian roared, "Impossible! How could all the Immortal Qi vanish in an instant?"
"Absolutely impossible!"
Cang Qingjian stated with utter certainty.
The wounds on his face were slowly healing.
The fact that the Immortal Qi was gone was the most important matter.
"Let me see for myself what happened! You’re telling me you have no idea?"
Cang Qingjian glanced at Cangwu Order, furious at his incompetence, then covered his face with a sigh. He had to find out what had caused the Immortal Qi to disappear.
Unfortunately, even a Tribulation Crossing Realm expert couldn’t find out why... why the Immortal Qi had vanished.
Until... news began to spread that other families’ Tribulation Crossing Ancestors, and even Seventh Realm Great Demons, had obtained Immortal Stones.
...
...
Qingsu Island.
Su Qing had named his island.
The other Cultivators had just finished fighting over the Immortal Stones.
But Su Qing had already started cooking the Dragon Meat.
Dragon Meat was incredibly rich in essence.
The first thing Su Qing wanted to do was roast some and have a taste.
He looked at the three pairs of eyes staring at him.
Su Qing said helplessly, "This is the flesh of a Void Realm Dragon. It’s not something you can eat."
"Xingya, wipe that drool off your face. And you two, Dahuang, White Fox, stop drooling."
"I really can’t give you any of this Dragon Meat," Su Qing said, inhaling the incredibly fragrant aroma of the meat.
’This dragon is definitely going to be delicious.’
Luo Xingya, feeling it was unseemly for her to be drooling, quickly wiped the corners of her mouth.
But as it turned out, there was no drool.
Dahuang and the White Fox, however, were genuinely drooling.
Su Qing sprinkled on some Tier Four cumin, a Spirit Plant he had painstakingly cultivated all the way from scratch to Tier Four.
It was the real deal, and it smelled absolutely divine.
To ensure the Dragon Meat cooked through, Su Qing had specially synthesized the God Demon True Essence Flame.
[Star Immortal Fire: An Immortal Fire containing the power of God Demons and Immortals. It can melt most things in the world.]
The flame was as brilliant as a field of stars, looking utterly surreal.
Only its outer edge had the shape of a deep blue flame.
Su Qing was still controlling the temperature, though.
To subdue the flame, Su Qing had also synthesized his ancient Immortal Control Hand to an Advanced level.
It was all part of the Immortal Transformation process.
So it was still called the Immortal Control Hand.
[Immortal Control Hand: Allows the user to control Immortal Fire without self-harm. Can also be used as an offensive technique. When cultivated to Perfection, it can control the Soul Fire of a Cultivator at the same realm, turning them into a Puppet under one’s command. It can also be used to attack enemies with Immortal Fire.]
Su Qing felt the gazes of the three pairs of eyes on him.
With a faint smile, he picked up a piece of roasted Dragon Meat.
He took a deep whiff~
"Haaaah~"
"So fragrant!" Su Qing declared with a smug grin.
Su Qing could hear the sound of two beasts and one person swallowing their saliva.
’Look all you want. You can’t have any anyway.’
Su Qing took a huge bite.
The essence of the Dragon Meat exploded in his mouth, mingling with the various Tier Four spices. The meat was savory and springy, yet it melted in his mouth after just a few chews. It was truly magnificent.
Once the essence of the Dragon Meat reached Su Qing’s stomach,
an immense surge of Energy coursed through his entire body, causing all his Acupoints and Micro Acupoints to work in unison to absorb it.
The Fourth Realm Cultivator began to sweat and feel hot all over, his skin flushing a rosy red.
The nourishment from the Dragon Meat nearly rivaled that of an Immortal Fruit created from an ordinary fruit Su Qing had synthesized twice.
However, the Energy was far too immense and not as gentle in nourishing the body as an Immortal Fruit would be.
"Awesome!" Su Qing shouted.
A sliver of his aura leaked out, startling the two beasts and sending them scrambling away.
Luo Xingya, however, didn’t move, though she felt very uncomfortable.
Su Qing retracted that bit of aura.
He laughed. "See? This is Dragon Meat. If it affects even me—your Young Master—like this, just imagine what it would do to you!"
With that said, Su Qing went back to finishing his piece of Dragon Meat.
After finishing a piece of Dragon Meat the size of a leg of lamb, he actually felt somewhat full.
After cultivating for so long, it was the first time Su Qing had ever felt this sensation. It was fantastic.
’I should have some of this with every meal from now on.’
’Void Realm Dragon Meat really is something else.’
Besides, there was a lot of Dragon Meat. At this rate, Su Qing felt it would take him years to eat it all.
Although Luo Xingya was practically drooling, she knew she couldn’t eat the Dragon Meat.
"How high do I have to cultivate before I can eat this Dragon Meat?" Luo Xingya asked, sounding a little aggrieved.
"..."
"The Void Realm, probably. If not, then you’d need to be at the Divinity Transformation Realm to eat it."
"Ah!" Luo Xingya was struck dumb by his words.
Still, her mouth watering, she declared resolutely, "I’ll definitely reach the Divinity Transformation Realm quickly!"
"..." Su Qing was speechless.
’This girl...’
’She’s read a few books on Immortal Cultivation,’
’but she has no real idea how difficult Cultivation truly is.’
’If reaching the Divinity Transformation Realm were that easy, I wouldn’t still be at the Nascent Soul Realm.’
’I’ll have to make sure this girl goes through some real hardship,’ Su Qing thought.
Luo Xingya had no idea that this one sentence of hers would lead to her suffering Su Qing’s so-called "hardship" in the future.
...
In the following days, the matter of the Immortal Stones continued to escalate.
Meanwhile, the news of Su Qing using an Immortal Array to fend off all the covetous Great Powers also spread like wildfire.
Countless Cultivators learned that a new island had been established at the border between the Celestial Sea Realm and the Nether Sea Realm.
Furthermore, it was protected by an Immortal Array.
Beyond that, even more Golden Core and Nascent Soul Realm Cultivators wanted to go and see for themselves.
What did it mean that someone was selling Tier Four Spirit Medicine?
