Long Yu had just experienced an intense battle and pushed himself to his limits. All the power in his body seemed to be boiling.
If he didn't try to break through now, when would he?
Long Yu remembered that Scarlet Oriole had broken through to the Great Ruler realm in the midst of an intense battle. Thus, fighting was indeed a great way to promote a cultivator's growth.
Long Yu began to absorb the third grade heaven crystal item of creation while Moon Song and Scarlet Oriole guarded Long Yu from the side.
"That Abyss Race assassin has been completely eliminated. Once Long Yu completes his breakthrough, we can go back and turn in the mission."
Scarlet Oriole smiled at Moon Song.
"Yes, to be honest, if it weren't for Long Yu's help, that Abyss Race assassin really would have been difficult to deal with. With just the two of us, even if we could kill it, it would have taken us at least ten times longer, and we might have encountered danger as well," Moon Song said with some emotion.
Clearly, she had completely acknowledged Long Yu's strength.
She raised her head and looked at Long Yu. She realized that he was focused on breaking through to the next level. It was very obvious in this space. After all, the Berserk Battle Divine Runes circled around his body. They hadn't completely dispersed yet, making him look like a berserk war god.
When Long Yu absorbed the celestial crystal creation item, he channeled all of the creation power into his small world to expand his own small world.
As Long Yu's small world continued to expand, Long Yu's basic power also began to slowly increase. Ever since a cultivator stepped into the Dominator's Secret Realm, the size of the small world would affect the cultivator's basic power. The bigger the small world, the stronger the cultivator's basic power.
Long Yu was neither arrogant nor impatient. After the intense battle, he began to cultivate step by step, attempting to break through.
Long Yu hadn't encountered any bottlenecks in a long time. Even now, when he broke through from upper Ruler to Great Ruler, he didn't encounter any bottlenecks.
In any case, all he needed to do was absorb the power of creation from the creations to expand the territory of his small world and slowly approach the level of a great ruler.
… …
Time continued to pass.
To Red Oriole and Moon Song, this was the moment they witnessed the birth of a powerhouse. After three days and three nights, Long Yu finished absorbing the three Heaven Crystals of Creation and finally transformed himself!
Thinking back to the time when Red Oriole broke through, it was because she had already reached the critical point of breaking through. Then, during the intense battle, she broke through the shackles and obtained a promotion.
And now, Long Yu was relying on the three celestial crystals to forcibly expand the territory of his small world. Then, when he encountered a bottleneck, he broke through it in one fell swoop, almost without encountering any bottlenecks!
As soon as Long Yu broke through to the first level of the Sovereign realm, he felt a tremendous energy surge out of his body. This breakthrough had increased his base strength by four or five times. After all, this was a breakthrough to the next level. For a cultivator, this was a qualitative change.
Long Yu's fierce battle with the Abyss Race assassin had allowed him to break through to the first level of the Sovereign realm. Even he hadn't expected this to happen. He had already burned all of his potential and used all of his abilities to fight against the Abyss Race assassin.
Apart from the Killing Prison of the Four Elements, Long Yu had used all of his abilities to barely clean up the Abyss Race assassin's Liquid Metal Doppelganger. This was with the help of Red Oriole and Moon Song, whose fighting strength could be said to be on par with Long Yu.
But now, Long Yu had broken through to the first level of the Sovereign realm. His strength was even stronger than Red Oriole and Moon Song's. Of course, this required Long Yu to stack his Heavenly Berserker Power to a hundred layers.
If they were to fight like this, Moon Song and Red Oriole wouldn't give Long Yu any chance to stack his Heavenly Berserker Power. This was certain. Therefore, if they were to spar, Long Yu might not necessarily be a match for Red Oriole and Moon Song.
However, if the three of them were to work together against a powerful enemy, Red Oriole and Moon Song would be the ones to pin down the enemy while Long Yu would be in charge of stacking his Heavenly Berserker Power and defeating the enemy in one fell swoop.
Long Yu's greatest strength now wasn't in one-on-one battles, but rather in teamwork. He could be used as a trump card.
After breaking through, there was no need for the three of them to remain in this void.
"How many Battlefield Legion Merit Points will we get after completing this academy's mission?"
Long Yu asked the two girls after coming back to his senses.
"A total of six million points. If the three of us split it equally, each of us will get two million Battlefield Legion Merit Points. Although it's not much, it's still an easy mission," Moon Song replied.
She then took out a jade slip with a metallic texture. This jade slip still had the remnant aura of the Abyssal Race assassin.
This aura was added by the Demigod powerhouses of the Demigod Academy. If they didn't complete the mission, this aura would remain.
Red Oriole had used this aura to deduce the whereabouts of the Abyssal Race assassin. In the end, they had caught up to him and killed him.
Because Long Yu had obtained several tens of millions of Battlefield Legion Merit Points from his previous trip to the alien battlefield, he didn't really care about the two million Battlefield Legion Merit Points from this mission. However, it was better than nothing.
When the time came, whether it was to purchase Transcendence Wine or Shadow Essence, they would need a huge amount of Battlefield Legion Merit Points. What Long Yu needed now was to accumulate them and wait for the next opportunity.
However, what made Long Yu feel rather conflicted was that when he asked Moon Song, she also said that she had never seen Shadow Essence. Although Flame Essence, Ice Essence, Light Essence, and the like were precious, they had at least appeared before.
Only Shadow Essence was far too rare in the Human and Yao Territories. It was said that Shadow Essence was produced in the Spiritas' territory, but the Spiritas' territory was far too eerie and strange. Not to mention searching for Shadow Essence, ordinary people didn't even have a chance of coming back alive after entering their territory.
Long Yu had some understanding of the Spiritas. After all, he had fought against them in the Bloody Battlefield and killed one of them.
The Spiritas didn't have a physical body. If one's spiritual sense wasn't strong enough, they wouldn't be able to sense the existence of the Spiritas.
Even if one were to enter the territory of the Soul Clan, in the eyes of those cultivators who were not qualified, their surroundings would be completely empty. Once they were struck by a sudden mental attack, there was an 80% to 90% chance that only death awaited them.
"The Void Star River's location seems to be next to the Spiritas' territory. When my strength is enough, I can go to the Spiritas' territory and give it a try. Who knows, I might really be able to find traces of Shadow Essence."
Long Yu thought to himself. This matter was extremely dangerous, so he couldn't do it in a short period of time. At the very least, he had to wait until he reached a higher cultivation.
A Phase 1 Great Dominator was still too weak. At the very least, he had to wait until he reached Phase 4 or Phase 5 Great Dominator and could deal with ordinary Phase 7 Great Dominators. Only then would he have the slightest chance of entering the Spiritas' territory.
Long Yu still had some confidence in this. Others didn't dare to enter the Spiritas' territory, but that didn't mean that Long Yu didn't dare. After all, he had cultivated the World Purifying Physique. Moreover, he had raised it to its peak and derived the World Purifying Soul Mirror.
To the Spiritas, the World Purifying Physique was a martial path secret technique that could completely restrain them. It could naturally block the majority of mental attacks and control methods.
Cultivators who cultivated this martial path secret technique could definitely be said to be the natural enemy of the Spiritas.
However, Long Yu felt that just relying on the World Purifying Physique wasn't enough. Now that he had stepped into the Great Dominator realm, he had some new ideas.
Within the Nine Underworld Prison Stele, there was still a core that he hadn't explored.
He was very clear that whether it was the World Purifying Physique or the Devil Dust Heart, they were both excavated from the Nine Underworld Prison Stele's core. Back then, the Jiuyou Dragon Emperor had already explored a portion of it. However, the current Long Yu hadn't explored the Nine Underworld Prison Stele's core in the slightest.
"This time, I'll go back and rest first. Red Oriole, Moon Song, how far away are you from breaking through?"
Long Yu asked the two women.
"I'll be able to break through to the fourth phase Great Dominator realm very soon. However, Red Oriole should still be quite far away."
Moon Song glanced at Red Oriole and said with a smile, "I actually want to break through before taking on the next mission. However, to break through, I'm afraid I'll have to go into seclusion for about a month."
No one had ever broken through as easily and quickly as Long Yu. Moon Song wanted to break through from the third phase Great Dominator realm to the fourth phase Great Dominator realm, but there was an insurmountable bottleneck.
Even with Moon Song's talent, breaking through this bottleneck wasn't something that could be done in a short period of time. However, she should be able to do it in about a month.
Red Oriole nodded and said, "Since you've broken through and Moon Song can break through as well, we'll wait a month before taking on the next mission. Then, we'll be able to accept slightly more difficult missions."
"Is there anything you can break through during this month?"
Long Yu asked Red Oriole. He was still quite concerned about Red Oriole's cultivation. After all, she was his woman. He couldn't let her cultivation go wrong, nor could he let her waste her time for nothing.
"I can try to cultivate that high grade Endless martial skill jade slip you gave me, Fiend Shadow Bind. This control technique seems to be very useful. I'll need to cultivate it to the peak or perfection level before I can use it in actual combat, "Red Oriole said with a smile.
Clearly, she had also thought about what she could do in the next month.
In fact, apart from cultivating Fiend Shadow Bind, she had many other techniques that she could cultivate and improve. For example, she had yet to cultivate Balanced Control to the peak of the ninth layer, so her spiritual sense wasn't at its optimal state.
This would still affect her to a certain extent. As for improving Balanced Control, she still needed the support of cultivation resources. This wasn't a problem for Long Yu or Red Oriole.
The two of them currently had a large amount of Battlefield Legion Merit Points on them. Purchasing a few Heaven Crystal Creation items wasn't too difficult.
