《Overlord in Cultivation》64. The Tenth Floor
Advertisement
On the top of Dragon-hidden Mountain, billowing Qi and blood was flowing abundantly. Mesmerizing dragon roars still hovered between heaven and earth
The students, teachers, and stewards looked in awe at the peerless teenager in front of them. Each of them wanted to say something, but when they opened their mouths, they did not know what to say.
Su Yan’s victory made Elder Lei look as pale as dying ashes. Elder Lei was quivering all over, his mouth was bleeding, and he seemed to have aged a lot in an instant.
He lost and so did his student. The most ridiculous thing was that he started the challenge and failed miserably!
From the very beginning, Elder Lei boasted that his student Teng Yingjie was incomparable and he was the best student among the freshmen. But Elder Lei was hit by the cruel reality. What a terrible defeat!
Liu Peng sighed, why bother? Elder Lei was too partial to Teng Yingjie, so that he demanded resources from the college continuously and even wanted to take away Su Yan’s resources. Now he was so humiliated that he almost lost everything.
“Martial lord! Su Yan!”
“Martial lord has an heir!”
Just now Su Yan defeated Teng Yingjie nimbly with absolute superiority, the older generation was very excited.
Su Yan's prestige resounded throughout Huaxia College again. Su Yan would be a master in Huaxia College only considering his power, not to mention that he was the student of the martial lord.
Teng Yingjie was lying on the ground, and his eyes were full of fear. He still couldn’t believe that he was defeated by Su Yan with one move!
Tao Tianhua breathed heavily. Su Yan had surprised him again. His heart was trembling for Su Yan’s teacher was the martial lord!
Even if Su Yan failed opening his Destiny Spring, the martial lord could also cultivate Su Yan with his ability!
“In any case, Su Yan must die. Absolutely die!”
Tao Tianhua left with the killing intent. He went to Divine Dragon Mountain to negotiate with Jiang Wuhen.
Su Yan took away the storage bag from Liu Peng. Elder Lei was about to say something, but he didn’t. Although quite a lot treasures that belonged to him were in the storage bag, the storage bag was owned by Su Yan now. Elder Lei was too ashamed to say anything.
“You deserve it!”
Su Yan looked at the miserable Elder Lei and shook his head. This time, if the martial lord didn’t appear, he wouldn’t be able to survive unscathed.
“Teacher!” Su Yan looked at Yi Yuan respectfully. After knowing Yi Yuan’s identity, Su Yan was excited that Yi Yuan was the martial lord! There was only one martial lord in the whole Huaxia Alliance! That person was Yi Yuan!
“Well. Go ahead and do your own thing.”
Yi Yuan nodded and left alone. He had a mania for martial arts and was absorbed in studying it.
If it wasn’t Xia Ze who let him accept disciples on that day, he would not find Su Yan’s uniqueness. Maybe this was fate!
“What kind of person did Tang Yi send me? Did Su Yan ever cultivate Yi Yuan’s manuals?”
“Did he have the king body like Yi Yuan and Zu Yan?”
Xia Ze thought about Su Yan’s king body, which would be the hope of the rise of Huaxia Alliance in the future, and it was about the rise and fall of the human race!

“Su Yan, I hope you won’t let me down.”
Watching Su Yan stepping into the Training Pagoda, he muttered, “What heritage is hidden in the Training Pagoda? In the past few decades, no one could pass it all. Zu Yan had tried too that year but failed, and his speed was faster than Su Yan!”
Originally, Su Yan planned to get some ores. But to his surprise, Elder Lei’s storage bag contained many ores, which saved him a lot of troubles.
The news of martial lord’s appearance had already spread throughout Huaxia College and continued causing a sensation. Countless masters had flocked to the residence of the martial lord and wanted to meet him.
The news also spread from north to south and even every corner of the whole Huaxia Alliance.
The ten overmatches! Every one of them was a well-known master and had made great contribution to Huaxia Alliance!
“Martial lord is still alive! Martial lord is still alive! Haha! How lucky I am to witness the charisma of the martial lord! You know what? The martial lord could fight against the demon lord many years ago when I was just a kid!”
"Fifty years ago, I could only watch the martial lord and the demon lord perish together, but now our martial lord is still alive!"
The world was shocked. What happened over 50 years ago was still fresh in the memory of the older generation. It was a tough time for Huaxia Alliance because anytime they were in genocide danger. However, heroes appeared in every critical moment, risking their precious lives to save the alliance!
It was the martial lord who fought desperately with the demon lord and they died together, which frightened the beast army with awe and exhibited how august the martial lord was!
“Hahaha, you old bastards! Are you begging me to butter Su Yan up now? Ridiculous! I won’t do it.”
Xia Yang burst into laughter when he went back to his room in the headquarter of Base No.9. Some old guys of Underground Chamber of Commerce regretted so much right now. Su Yan was the student of martial lord now, and Su Yan defeated Teng Yingjie who was in the third-level of Destiny Spring with one move, thus someone had estimated that Su Yan could fight with cultivators who were in the fifth-level of Destiny Spring.
“Why can’t you keep calm?”
Jiang Wuhen discontentedly looked at Tao Tianhua who just rushed in, and Jiang Wuhen scolded with a cold voice, “He who couldn’t open the Destiney Spring won’t accomplish anything big, be it Su Yan or even the martial lord. The earth is about to change for the second time, and the cultivators will dominate the world in the future. No matter how powerful the martial lord is, killing him is going to be a piece of cake for my teacher.”
Hearing Jiang Wuhen’s words, Tao Tianhua was excited. If the ultimate day came, would the world reverse its setup?
“Now you listen to me, as my teacher said, Tao will occur within three years!”
Jiang Wuhen said expectantly, “Once my teacher understands the power of Tao, he could control the laws of heaven and earth. At that time, he could kill all his opponents!”
Tao Tianhua was full of confidence again, but his face was as white as a sheet when he saw the message in the communicator.

“Su Yan made it to the 10th floor?”
Jiang Wuhen's face was sullen, “Su Yan is a bit mysterious. My teacher said that there is probably a great ancient inheritance hidden in the Training Pagoda. Keep your eye on him!"
Many students of the entire Huaxia College were shocked as if they saw ghosts when hearing that Su Yan made it to the 10th floor!
“Su Yan is really a maverick genius!”
“Thanks to his unopened Destiny Spring, or we will have no chance at all.”
“He has already got to the 10th floor, can he make it to the 11th floor?"
“How is that possible? Even the big brother couldn't pass the 11th floor. Su Yan's teacher, the martial lord, is horrible indeed, but is he as horrible as the Warlord Zu Yan?"
"There is no comparison between these two. Everyone knows that Zu Yan is the strongest. The martial lord did kill a demon lord but Zu Yan killed at least three in those years or Zu Yan wouldn’t have such a horrendous reputation of the invincible warlord."
“If Su Yan can't do it this time, then he has to wait for the birth of natural Taoist rules and find stronger treasures in ancient ruins."
Yi Yuan sighed, “It’s too difficult, and it’s a long time to wait for!”
As for Su Yan's residence, it seemed to be forgotten. The Fatty casually cultivated here all day long, making a group of disciples jealous and mad. They were secretly regretful for not being Su Yan's friends before.
However, this residence seemed to be a taboo, and no one dared to mention it!
Su Yan had come to the 10th floor.
“This is the second volume of Taoist Formation!”
Su Yan was pleasantly surprised. He took the ancient hide-map and toured in the second volume of Taoist Formation. The second volume recorded various complete formations, including the Spirit-gathering Formation and literally a hundred others, such as Wind Formation, Thunder Formation, etc.
All kinds of formations were recorded. According to the contents recorded in the second volume of Taoist Formation, it could be seen that these formations were the most basic ones, while the Spirit-gathering Formation was the simplest.
"Is it my task to inscribe all these formations?" Su Yan was confident. Although the Spirit-gathering Formation he mastered was simple, the rest of the formations also evolved from the shallow formation lines.
Everything remained essentially the same despite the changes!
"Not really!"
The peerless beautiful woman in the silver robe came to Su Yan fairly and charmingly. She said, “Don’t you bring the ores? Inscribe ten of the formations in the second volume of the Taoist Formation on ores and remember to choose formations with different attributes!"
"What? On the ore?" Su Yan said surprisingly, “The…the ores are too small. How could I inscribe so many formation lines on them?"
"It's your business."
The woman in the silver robe ignored Su Yan's complaint and whispered, “Remember, your time is running out! Hurry up!"
Su Yan’s face turned blue. His spirit went into the storage bag which had about a hundred ores, but basically all of them was fist-size.
Inscribing complicated and abstruse formation lines required super powerful spirit. So it must be hard.
"Emm?"
Su Yan was surprised that he found some good things in Elder Lei's storage bag.
By the power of his spirit, he poured out all the things inside of the bag . And among a number of bottles and cans, he even found three bottles of Soul-nurturing Liquid!
"What an old bastard! How could he own so many good things!”
Su Yan's eyes were sparkling with excitement since the Soul-nurturing Liquid was very important for his spiritual cultivation and swallowing down three bottles of the Soul-nurturing Liquid would enhance the power of his spirit which could make him relatively easy to inscribe formations.
"I don't know how much time I'll spend on the tenth floor."
Su Yan closed his eyes, absorbing the power of the Soul-nurturing Liquid to nourish his spirit.
A golden divine line flashed in his forehead, which, after nourished by the Soul-nurturing Liquid, quickly became stronger.
In the next three days, Su Yan refined three bottles of the Soul-nurturing Liquid, and his spirit became much stronger.
“The Soul-nourishing Liquid is really miraculous and is worthy of being the third-level liquid. If I raise my spirit tenfold, my soul will be evolved!”
Time passed quickly.
Half a month passed in a flash.
On the 10th floor of the Training Pagoda, more complicated and abstruse formations appeared. Su Yan had inscribed three sets of formations on the ground.
The lady in silver robe was secretly surprised. Although Su Yan had not inscribed the formations on the ores, he was indeed a quick learner. How long had he been exposed to formations?
Another half a month passed, Su Yan had inscribed eight sets of formations. He could finish the last two sets in three days.
Su Yan had chosen ten formations with different attributes.
He tried Spirit-gathering Formation first with finger-inscribing. It was so painful for him to be cautious all along as the ore was indeed too small to inscribe on.
“Can I go out and bring some bigger ores to try again?” Su Yan asked the silent lady in silver robe.
She shook her head, “It’s the same, you are doing great. The effect of the formation will be influenced by the bigger ores.”
“It is so uncommon to hear such words from you.” Su Yan muttered.
Hearing that, a faint smile appeared in the eyes of the lady in silver robe. She said lightly, “By the way, different attributes of the ores matching correspondingly with the right formations will bring about stronger power.”
Su Yan was surprised; he scanned the ore and said, “I see. Just like weapons, formations are consuming the power of the ores to emit mightier power.”
The lady in silver robe slightly nodded. Ores could be refined into weapons. If the power of ores burst out at one time and formed a killing formation, it would be unimaginably powerful!
Su Yan licked his lips and thought if he threw out thousands of ores inscribed with formations all at once, no one could bear it.
