He grabbed one person with each hand and soared into the sky, traveling hundreds of thousands of miles in a single breath.
Two hours later, they landed on an inconspicuous mountain.
There was a group of young men and women waiting there, accompanied by a few experts.
"Situ Family's Master, I've brought them here for you. Leave them to protect you, then you can set your mind at ease." The masked man put Su Yu down, then turned around and left.
A beautiful woman in a snow-white robe bowed to the masked man from afar. "Thank you for your help, my lord."
"We're just taking what we need." The masked man didn't even turn his head.
After she spoke, the snow-robed beautiful woman looked back at Su Yu and Yuan Yingying, while surprise flickered in her eyes.
"Madam Situ, are these the last two participants of the test?" At the side was a grey robed elder, and he had a cold and reserved expression.
The snow-robed woman smiled gently. "Please wait for a moment, Elder Li. I have something to say to the two of them."
Elder Li nodded, crossed his arms in front of his chest, closed his eyes and waited.
After she brought Su Yu and Yan Er to the side, the snow-robed woman wore a faint smile and spoke to them warmly like an elder. She then said, "I'm Madame Situ. Since you were invited here by the lord, I can naturally hand Yan 'er over to you."
As he spoke, he took out two small bags from his sleeves, each containing a hundred crystal stones.
Such a sum of money was a great fortune to an early stage Fairy.
"I'll have to trouble you to take care of Yan 'er. Yan' er, come here." The beautiful woman waved at the crowd in the distance. The crowd parted, and a beautiful girl in bright clothes walked out.
She was about sixteen years old and had a slender figure. Although she wasn't even half as pretty as Lady Situ, she was still pleasing to the eye.
Her eyes were very bright and full of spirit. She took light steps and a bright smile hung on her face. "Mother."
"Yan 'er, these are the experts who will protect you along the way. Remember to listen to them," Madam Situ said.
The young girl sized up Su Yu with her big eyes, then curled her small mouth and said, "You aren't as powerful as me."
"Yan 'er, don't be rude. They were invited by that lord, so they can't be wrong." Madam Situ's expression was solemn and dignified.
The girl stuck out her tongue. "I know."
Then, he waved his hand at Su Yu and Yuan Yingying and chuckled. "Let's go. Let me introduce my clansmen to you."
Looking from afar, they were all young men and women who looked somewhat similar. They seemed to be members of the Situ Clan.
From the looks of it, the Situ Family had made the same decision as the Shangguan Family, giving all the spots to their family's children.
"Elder Li, we can set off now," the Situ Family Head said.
Elder Li opened his eyes and took out a finger-sized bird from his sleeves. It was unknown what material was used to craft it, but it emitted a powerful aura, which was at the early stage of the Fairy Realm.
Puppet? Su Yu was startled, and he recalled the expert who made puppets, Yu Tianci.
The puppet bird was tossed into the air and grew to a size of a hundred feet.
Everyone present, including Madam Situ, also followed the procession.
On the puppet bird, Yan 'er chattered incessantly. She was extremely lively, and she really livened up the atmosphere.
Su Yu and Yuan Yingying were both wearing conical bamboo hats, which made them seem quite mysterious. Moreover, they had been brought here by an elder whom they knew, so they respected them greatly and didn't underestimate their cultivations.
The journey was rather harmonious.
This flight lasted for half a day.
They crossed a long river, which was filled with large chunks of ice.
"We have arrived at the Frozen River, so we should quickly enter the Red Blood Palace's territory," Elder Li said.
The Sky Castle was the closest to the Red Blood Palace among the many regions, so they could enter it in just half a day.
"It's already dark, so it's inconvenient for us to enter it. Let's rest here for the night," Elder Li said.
Madam Situ nodded. "Okay, it's really inconvenient for us to enter at night during this special period."
After the puppet bird landed, the group of people set up camp beside the Frozen River.
Since they had Divine Master experts like Madam Situ and Elder Li among them, they didn't need to fear any danger.
Su Yu and Yuan Yingying were both surprised by this. Since they had already entered the Red Blood Palace's territory, why didn't they continue onward?
At this moment, Yan 'er came over with two roasted lamb legs and gave one to Su Yu and Yuan Yingying. She then said, "We can reach the Red Blood Palace by noon tomorrow. It's my first time going there."
Yan 'er smiled, her eyes filled with longing.
Su Yu asked, "Since we still have half a day, why don't we travel through the night?"
Yan 'er shook her head and looked at the pitch-black Red Blood Palace. She then said, "You don't know this, but the Red Blood Palace has recently activated the Ice Soul Divine Dream Formation, and it has set it up in many regions. If you are careless for even a moment, you will fall into it, and you won't be able to come out.
This is especially the case at night, as the illusory formation's effects will be magnified, and even Elder Li won't dare to enter it rashly. "
Su Yu squinted his eyes when he heard her. He had really detected several hidden auras.
The Ice Soul Divine Dream Formation was known as the Eighteen Blessed and Heavenly Lands' number one illusory formation. In the past, Su Yu and the Almighty Divine Master Lü Chuyi had fallen into it.
Its might was still fresh in Su Yu's mind.
However, the fact that it had only been activated recently meant that the Red Blood Palace had already detected the dark forces' restlessness, so they had started to take precautions against it.
"You can continue eating. I will go and accompany my mother." Yan 'er hopped over to Madam Situ's side.
Su Yu revealed a faint smile. "What a lively little girl."
"Brother Su, do you like such a girl?" Yuan Yingying glared at Su Yu and puffed up her cheeks angrily. It seemed like she was telling him that if he dared to answer her, she would cry in front of him.
Su Yu smiled.
All of a sudden, Su Yu felt a burning pain in his right palm.
When he opened his palm, a grave look appeared on his face. He saw that the flame seal was unexpectedly burning!
It was burning, and it seemed like a small flame was dancing on his palm.
Su Yu's life force was quickly being devoured by the small flame.
Moreover, every time it devoured a bit of Su Yu's life force, it would become stronger.
The flame became more intense, and it seemed like it wanted to burn Su Yu.
Shock appeared on Su Yu's face, as such a sudden occurrence gave him a great sense of crisis.
A shadow of death slowly engulfed his heart.
Bang! Bang!
Su Yu's heart was beating unceasingly, and it seemed like it would jump out of his chest.
An ominous feeling welled up in the depths of his soul.
The Divine Nine-Dragon Cauldron was also shaking intensely, emitting many dragon roars that reverberated in the depths of his soul. It seemed like it was warning him!
Even the Divine Nine-Dragon Cauldron was warning him!
This was the first time it had ever happened!
Even when Su Yu had run into danger before, it hadn't been as intense as this one.
As he recalled Xia Jingyu's warning, Su Yu's expression changed drastically.
The life-or-death crisis that she had mentioned had finally arrived!
Shocked, Su Yu tried to extinguish the flame in his palm. However, just like before, regardless of whether it was his Vital Energy or Soul Energy, he was unable to affect the flame. It was as if it existed in the void and was not affected by anything.
As the flame became bigger and bigger, his life force, which wasn't much to begin with, was reduced to less than 70 percent.
In another two hours, his life force would be completely devoured, and his body would be destroyed.
"I must break through immediately! I mustn't wait any longer!" Su Yu's gaze became grave. Since he couldn't extinguish the flame, he could only think of a way to increase his life force, and the only way to do so was to break through to the Fairy Realm.
Swoosh!
Su Yu soared into the sky, then turned his head around and said, "Sirs, I will leave for a while. I will surely come back tomorrow morning."
After he spoke, he dived into the Eternal Ice River.
Su Yu took the Grade Four Fairy Expansion Pill while he was in the ice river.
When the elixir entered his body, a scorching hot aura almost caused Su Yu to spit out the elixir.
The scorching hot liquid traveled from his throat to his lungs and reached his Dantian.
When the scorching hot liquid entered his External Dantian, it caused his Vital Energy Lake to boil. The scorching hot energy wasn't something that his External Dantian could contain.
After a short while, the scorching hot energy passed through his External Dantian and reached his Internal Dantian.
In just an hour, it had filled his whole Internal Dantian.
As his Internal Dantian was affected by the scorching hot energy, it quickly melted. It was like a sealed space that was being destroyed by an eruption of lava.
Bang!
As a loud noise echoed, his whole Internal Dantian suddenly exploded and expanded to a size of an acre.
The three Vital Energy Crystals shattered and turned into liquid, which flowed into his body.
What happened next was the same as before. The world's Spiritual Energy crazily flowed into Su Yu's body and turned into raindrops that watered the dried-up lake.
At this moment, Su Yu's whole right arm was burning, and it seemed like it was becoming more and more intense.
It was also at this moment that his Internal Dantian took shape.
It was similar to the External Dantian, standing side by side with it.
Both of his Dantians had turned into lakes.
At this moment, Su Yu's Vital Energy was comparable to a Grade Two Fairy's.
Rumble!
All of a sudden, a mass of black clouds gathered above Su Yu's head, and a giant bolt of lightning, which was as thick as a bowl, appeared intermittently.
It was the Heavenly Tribulation!
The tribulation was about to begin. Once it succeeded, he would completely break through to the Fairy Realm.
Roar!
As a lightning dragon descended, Su Yu pointed his finger at it. The Thunder Herb Armor floated above his head and absorbed the roaring thunder.
At this moment, the second and third bolt of lightning descended.
In the eyes of the Half Fairy, the disastrous thunder, which could destroy the world, was easily dealt with by Su Yu.
Three bolts of disastrous thunder was the limit for breaking through to the Fairy Realm.
As the disastrous thunder dispersed, a gentle beam of light shone on Su Yu's body from the depths of the sky.
A warm current flowed throughout Su Yu's body.
His skin, blood, flesh, internal organs, and every other part of his body were bathed in the gentle light.
His body was transforming both internally and externally.
As his soul was illuminated by the light, it continued to grow. Su Yu, who once had the soul power of a Grade One Fairy, had his soul power increase once again, reaching the level of a Grade Two Fairy.
His physical body also continued to strengthen, from his flesh to his bones. From the body of a Half Fairy to that of a Grade One Fairy, if he used the First Dragon's Body, it would be equivalent to that of a Grade Four Fairy, with the power of four elephants.
The benefits of passing the tribulation were endless.
Su Yu, who had transformed both internally and externally, had his lifespan extended greatly. In normal circumstances, he could live for three hundred years.
Moreover, the extra three hundred years of lifespan that he had gained caused the life force in his body to overflow once again.
Crack!
His old skin peeled off, revealing his jade-like skin, which was as soft as a woman's.
His body's surface was filled with cracks.
Soon after, a soft sound echoed out, as the cracks all over his body exploded, while the old skin on his body's surface disappeared.
It was a handsome young man, who seemed like a celestial being from a painting.
Three-dimensional facial features, bright and deep eyes, and that head of white hair, gave people a devilishly handsome feeling.
Su Yu opened his eyes and let out a long breath. He had finally managed to recover his youthful body.
When he raised his head, he found that he had already been washed away by the Ice Sealed River.
Since Yuan Yingying and the others hadn't chased after him, it was obvious that they were far away from him.
However, when Su Yu noticed the raging flames that were still burning on his arm, his expression became gloomy once again.
He wondered … How can I extinguish these strange flames?
However, what happened next caused Su Yu's expression to change even more. His body, which had just recovered its youthful body, started aging at a speed that could be observed by the naked eye.
In the twinkling of an eye, he was once again called a white-haired old man.
"What's going on?" Su Yu's eyes flickered as he examined his lifespan.
But, why is my body …
After Su Yu pondered this for a moment, his left eye shone with a purple light.
Then, a strange thing happened, as his body returned to its youthful state.
Then, he used his time power once again and returned to the old man's body.
He could freely switch between the two states at will.
"It seems like this is a side effect of me using the Time-Space Reversal Technique too much. My youthful body and my current body exist in two different space-time nodes." An odd look appeared on Su Yu's face.
This didn't affect Su Yu's cultivation at all. On the contrary, it gave him some unexpected benefits.
This was because his youthful body and his old body could be switched between each other, and his identity could be hidden.
Su Yu's heart shook as he returned to his old body.
The young Su Yu was wanted by the Central Prefecture, so it would be better for him to not show his face in public.
After Su Yu solved this problem, he was just about to deal with the troublesome flames when a wisp of heat suddenly transmitted from the depths of the sky.
When Su Yu raised his head to look, his pupils contracted.
In the sky, after the disastrous thunder's dark clouds had dissipated, a burning cloud of fire had strangely appeared!
That's right, a burning cloud of fire!
A huge ball of flames was burning above his head.
The cloud of fire contained the Will of the World, and its might was many times stronger than the disastrous thunder!
The wisps of flames caused Su Yu's heart to palpitate, and he felt like he was about to be burned to ashes. This was a feeling that he would only feel when facing an All Creation Old Monster!
Su Yu's eyes were filled with flames, and his heart trembled. "Is this … the disastrous fire?"
Disastrous thunder was common, but disastrous fire was uncommon, and it was even rare.
Even when Almighty Divine Masters went through their tribulations, disastrous fire was rarely seen. Only when All Creation Old Monsters went through their tribulations would terrible disastrous fire appear.
The destructive power contained in the disastrous fire before him was extraordinary.
This … This is a tribulation for All Creation Old Monsters, so why is it happening to me? Su Yu couldn't believe it.
He had already gone through the tribulation, so why did it appear a second time? Moreover, it was a tribulation for All Creation Old Monsters!
Could this be the fatal great tribulation that Xia Jingyu had mentioned?
Looking at the burning flame on his arm, Su Yu raised his brows. "Could it be related to this wisp of flame?"
Right at that moment!
An apathetic voice drifted into his ears. "I found it."
At the same time, the five rings of golden light emitted a dazzling radiance, illuminating the night sky with dazzling golden light.
Su Yu raised his head and looked at it. The disastrous fire split open and formed a vortex, from which five golden suns came out.
As he used his Soul Eyes to look, he saw five majestic figures within the golden light.
Each of them was wearing golden armor and had a crown on their head, which was adorned with the sun, moon, and stars.
As the five of them descended, the world shook, and all living beings fell silent.
Su Yu's pupils contracted to the size of needles. "All Creation Old Monsters!"
