Global Cultivation: First-time Top-up For The Ultimate Destiny Treasure Chapter 37
Advertisement
Su Yi chose a direction and walked towards Demon Subduing Mountain.
On the way, he met a few cultivators who came out from Demon Subduing Mountain. All of them had messy clothes, as if they had fought with demon beasts.
When Su Yi saw this, he did not go forward to talk to them. He wanted to keep a low profile.
His footsteps were slow, and he soon arrived at the foot of Demon Subduing Mountain. There was a small path that he could see.
The path was dense and crisscrossed, with no sunlight coming in through the outside.
"This path should be the Underworld Tiger Mountain Path," he looked at the map in his hand and said lightly.
From this path, he would go to the Underworld Tiger Peak, where the ancient demon powder was produced.
Thinking of this, Su Yi stepped onto this small path.
As soon as he entered the small path, the shadow had already passed his body, and a gloomy feeling lingered in his heart.
It was as if he had been targeted by something.
Moreover, the surrounding trees were extremely quiet, as if there were no living beings here.
Rustle--
His footsteps continuously stepped on the falling leaves, making rustling sounds.
His eyes constantly scanned the surroundings, wary of the demon beasts that would suddenly appear. At the same time, he searched for any materials that could be collected.
Ka -
There was a sudden soft sound, and he frowned.
He found that there was actually a rotten branch under the cover of leaves where he landed.
He stepped on it, and a clear sound appeared quite loud on this quiet and secret path.
Just after he caused this commotion, this quiet path began to become active.
The surrounding trees began to rustle as if something was jumping around inside.
Roar!
A low roar could be heard, and Su Yi became solemn.
He did not expect the Demon Subduing Mountain's demon beast to use this diversion tactic.

The surrounding environment began to stir, but there was only one roar.
He was certain that there was only one demon beast.
He stopped and focused his attention on the surrounding environment. He raised the sword finger in his hand, ready to attack at any time.
Roar!
There was another roar. A black tiger-shaped creature jumped out from a bush behind him and pounced at him.
Su Yi reacted quickly. He quickly turned around and saw the appearance of the demon beast.
It had a tiger-like body, black fur with white stripes all over its body, a pair of fierce eyes, and four sharp teeth that emitted a cold light on its bloody mouth.
[Demon beast: underworld tiger.]
[Bloodline: Normal.]
[Realm: Early foundation establishment stage.]
"It's a demon beast at early foundation establishment stage."
Su Yi jumped to the side and dodged the attack. He looked at the demon beast that had appeared and said calmly, "a body full of black fur. It suits the environment here well. No wonder he chose to launch a sneak attack. It seems that his intelligence has improved a lot."
After saying that, the sword fingers in his hand gathered together. Then, he pointed his finger out. The extremely fast cold light shot into the head of the hell-hunting tiger. A bloody hole appeared, and the hell-hunting tiger immediately lost its vitality.
Until death, the hell-hunting tiger did not have time to show any fear before it was killed by Su Yi's sword finger.
After the underworld tiger died, he did not immediately go forward to collect it. Instead, he observed the spot for a while and found that the underworld tiger did not continue to attack. Only then did he lightly jump towards the demon beast's corpse.
He slightly raised his hand and a ray of multicolored light swept past. The notification in the immortal destiny seal appeared.
[Notification: Collection successful. Obtained foundation establishment realm demon core x 1, foundation establishment realm fur x 1, foundation establishment realm tiger tooth x 4.]

After collecting, he was about to leave, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw that from where the underworld tiger jumped out, there was a flash of dim light in the bushes.
"Hmm, what's over there?"
Out of curiosity, he jumped a few times into the bushes and peered inside.
There was a strange piece of ore that flashed with dim light from time to time.
He reached out and took it out. It was a thumb-sized stone. It was green and translucent, like jade. Occasionally, there would be a faint green light flashing.
"It's an azure stone."
Seeing this stone, Su Yi revealed a happy expression. He had seen the introduction of this kind of ore in a book before he activated the immortal destiny seal.
Azure stone was a kind of supplementary material when forging foundation realm weapons. As long as some of it was added, it could increase the attribute strength of the weapon. If the material was good enough, it could even increase the grade of the weapon. However, it was only limited to the foundation realm.
This kind of ore could be said to be a rare ore. He did not expect that he would encounter one in Demon Subduing Mountain.
After putting away the azure stone, he looked at the winding mountain path and continued forward.
...
One day later.
Su Yi came to a mountain peak from the winding path.
"Hu--"
He exhaled slowly. At a glance, there was no longer that dark and gloomy scene in his eyes.
The gentle breeze blew the branches under the sunlight, swaying slowly.
Many underworld tigers were lying in the grass, stretching their bodies comfortably. It seemed that they were not as aggressive as the underworld tigers on the path.
However, these were just illusions.
If they discovered Su Yi's arrival, they would immediately show their fangs and attack him.
Soon, a small underworld tiger saw Su Yi walking up from the mountain path.
Roar?
It was stunned for a moment, wondering why there were humans here.
Then, it revealed its sharp teeth and pounced at Su Yi with a fierce gaze.
Seeing that the demon beast was attacking, it raised its hand and pointed a sword finger.
Whoosh--
A sword finger shot out, and the underworld tiger fell heavily to the ground with a terrified expression.
Roar!
A mournful roar attracted the surrounding underworld tiger. All of them looked at him covetously and surrounded him.
Feeling the fierce gazes around him, Su Yi's true essence shook all over his body, and his body moved.
The sword fingers in his hand continued to gather and shoot out in all directions.
Soon, the tigers' roar slowly faded away.
...
On the mountain peak.
Su Yi's face was filled with joy as he found a large stone and sat on it.
He carefully counted the rewards he obtained from killing the underworld tigers.
There were not many demon beasts on this mountain peak. Most of them were mainly the underworld tiger, but he had killed more than 200 demon beasts.
Adding on the azure stone he found, the value of these resources was around one million yuan.
He looked around and saw that there were no more demon beasts in sight.
"The Demon Subduing Mountain demon beasts are all around the early stage of the foundation establishment realm."
"With my current strength in the Demon Subduing Mountain, it shouldn't be a problem for me to protect myself."
Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth curled up. He jumped down from the stone and continued to search for the underworld tigers to hunt.

Path of the Ancients
When humans with the ability to control the fundamental particles of the universe with their minds were first discovered, the age of space travel began in earnest. Relativistic travel faster than the speed of light became possible and humanity moved out into the stars. When it was discovered that these Mages could be turned into effective weapons, humanity turned back to its oldest pastime of war. Hundreds of years later as humanity was on the brink of self-destruction, with its taste for war finally beginning to wane, a new organization was created. The Conclave was formed to regulate all Mage’s within the human colonies. While the colonies maintained their independence, the Conclave’s control over access to interstellar travel made them the de facto power amongst humanity. As the old saying goes, ‘Power Corrupts’, and many people were unhappy with the way the Conclave had been leveraging its authority, not the least of which were the Mages they controlled. One unregistered illegal Mage by the name of Tyrial had made it his life's mission to dismantle the Conclave at any cost. After spending decades working towards his goals alone, he realized he would need the aid of willing allies in his crusade. Tyrial would need all the help he could get learning to work with others, dealing with his own dark past, and handling unfamiliar feelings of romantic interest.
