《Overlord in Cultivation》111. Nurturing the Life!
Advertisement
This was the power that could break the enemy, so irresistible!
Su Yan's body performed the power of Mizar Boxing, becoming even more horrible than before. Like a fuzzy and giant primordial planet, his body generated the power that could breach the enemy. Even King Kong couldn't withstand Su Yan's power, and was blown away!
Su Yan smiled for he finally realized the true meaning of The Big Dipper Boxing!
Besides, Su Yan also found that the power of the two boxings (Alkaid and Mizar) could blend together, skyrocketing in a second!
Pitifully his strength was too weak now, or the combat capacity could be very formidable!
"This is exactly the advantage of magic. If I can master a great magic, how powerful I could be?"Su Yan thought to himself. The seven boxings of the Big Dipper Boxing could blend with each other. Once the seven boxings were united as one, the power would be as invincible as a great magic!
Excitement flashed by in his eyes. He had already passed the first level of the trail. Maybe there were nice rewards!
Su Yan had gained a lot in these twenty days, his strength improved and his fighting capacity elevated. Su Yan thought that he could dealing with masters in Implement Constructing Realm. Once his Destiny Spring entered the ninth level, he could even kill them.
"Excellent."
The Old Taoist nodded with satisfaction. He went forward and said, "You have only spent twenty days passing the first test, which is pretty good. However, this is all due to your strong foundation, or you can hardly make it.”
"Will I die without the magic?" Su Yan couldn't help asking.
"No!"
The Old Taoist shook his head and said, "You won't. I would pass you a magic if you don't have one. Of course, if you failed again, you and the magic would all stay here."
Su Yan was shocked, he went up and asked, "Senior, may I know what reward I can have?"
"Reward?"
The Old Taoist shook his head, "Don't get hung up on substances. Not everyone can get in the toughest trail. This trail is customized to your weaknesses. Passing it means breaking through yourself. Besides, you have only passed the first and the easiest level. It will get harder!"
Su Yan gasped with astonishment. Getting harder? The toughest trail was really horrible.
"Of course, rewards are for sure!"
The Old Taoist looked at Su Yan and then said after pondering for a while, "Generally speaking, the rewards are based on the difficulty and the process of the challenge. Whoever passes the first level claims the same rewards."
"Now that I challenged the most difficult one, the reward should be better!" Su Yan couldn’t even hold himself back.
The Old Taoist nodded and said, "There are three things but you can only choose one. A life fruit, a small magic and a legendary weapon."
Although Su Yan didn't know what life fruit was, but taking a legendary weapon as a reward? How rich was this trail field, and who left it? Besides, this was only the reward for passing the first level!

"What is life fruit?" Su Yan felt that the legendary weapon and the small magic were useless for him.
"It can prolong life and heal a broken body."
What the Old Taoist said made Su Yan excited. He asked, "Senior, the Destiny Spring of my teacher is broken. Can it be repaired by the life fruit?"
"No." The Old Taoist frowned and said, "Only one life fruit is not enough for the broken Destiny Spring, which is a matter about the life-gate of the human body."
Su Yan was a little disappointed. If Yi Yan's Destiny Spring could be repaired, his strength would certainly not be inferior to Zu Yan's.
"In that case, I want the life fruit." Su Yan could only choose this. He had both a magic and a legendary weapon, so the life fruit was the best choice now.
The Old Taoist took out a bright green fruit. Holding the life fruit, Su Yan was shocked by the boundless essence it contained. This fruit was too strong, and it was by no means anything ordinary. He believed that he could reach the eighth level of the Destiny Spring Realm by taking the fruit.
"The reward for the second level should be better!"
Su Yan was itching to try. The Old Taoist had taken him to the gate of the second floor!
However, the scene inside made Su Yan a little petrified.
Su Yan felt like breaking into a world of God & Devil after entering inside. It was a huge stage for all the talents fighting for the supremacy!
He could hear dragon roaring and phoenix crowing!
He saw one after another invincible young overlords scrambling for the top. They were fighting with every outstanding person in the world for being matchless in the world!
"Senior, what's this?" Su Yan was dazed.
"Many young talents died here. But the specialty of this trail field keeps their supreme Qi here forever."
Su Yan was shocked, "You mean, these visional shadows are all the supreme Qi left by those overmatches."
He felt creepy. Would he be one of them if he died here?
The entire space was very large like a big ring!
All the talents were battling here, including some divine beasts. Su Yan detected an unequalled aura, as if seeing the supreme body occupying a corner of the ring as Tie Baocai had said!
"That's right!"
The Old Taoist said seriously, "The second level is very dangerous. That is to say, you are going to fight against every talent in each era!"
"Of course, though named supreme Qi, only a dozen of them are from young talents. The rest are a little bit weaker. Besides, even for the young overlords' supreme Qi, they are not in their prime state!"
Su Yan nodded. Standing in this trail field, he could feel the mightiness of these young overlords. And this was not their strongest state. In that way, how strong the supreme masters would be?
He was silent for a moment, then burst out laughing, "Senior, my third question is, what odds do you think I have to pass it?"

Feeling quite speechless, the Old Taoist smiled, "You little rat! I've been in this trail field for a long time, but this is the first time to be asked questions like this. Are you cheating?"
"Hoping Your Honor can help me, please. I know nothing about the world of cultivation." Su Yan saluted reverently. This was about his life. Even supreme masters died inside, Su Yan had to be careful.
Hearing this, the Old Taoist turned serious. He looked at Su Yan and said with every single word slowly, "High mortality it is. You have fifty percent odds!"
"Fifty percent!" Su Yan's face changed sharply. This was too low.
"Yes, fifty percent." The old Taoist sighed and added, "You'd better make a prudent choice. But I have to remind you that, only if you passed the second level, even the third level, can you get the secret medicine that can heal the Destiny Spring!"
"God, there does exist secret elixirs here!"
Su Yan was overjoyed. The it was worth challenging. Yi Yuan had risked his life several times to help Su Yan. Su Yan always wanted to repay his mentor!
"I've made up my mind. Now what should I do?" Su Yan asked seriously.
"It's very easy. Just go there and release your aura, then they'll come to kill you!"
"If you can stay in the ring for ten days, you can pass it. But I must warn you, fight with your strongest state. You don't have to worry about the energy loss because there will be endless supply of divine power for you during the fight."
The Old Taoist knew it clearly that the scariest was not the power of these talents, but the cruel spiritual torture for ten whole days!
Su Yan took a deep breath, looking at the ring firmly!
The next moment, he released his aura completely and his spirit changed utterly. Like an arrogant Warlord, he emitted an aura of invincibility, which was domineering and depressing!
"Boom!"
At this time, this ring was shaking and roaring. Wisps of supreme Qi broke out in the air like lightening. Each air mass floating above every ring sent out a strong fighting will and a spirit of tearing apart the enemy!
"Kill!"
Su Yan heard continuous loud roars. One after another, protagonists in a certain era came for him in his spiritual world. They used to be contending for hegemony over the world and striving to be invincible.
The Old Taoist looked grave. Some of the supreme Qi here drifted out from the depth of the trail field. Several young overlords were extremely horrible. They are, so to speak, the protagonists of an era.
Dozens of vague shadows formed by supreme Qi rushed overwhelmingly to kill him!
A purgatory appeared in Su Yan's spiritual world. They wanted to kill Su Yan so as to testify their invincible power!
"Hello, all dead men. I'll release your souls from purgatory today!"
Su Yan was like a ruthless man with his messy hair fluttering wildly in the air. His whole body unleashed onrushing vital energy. He suddenly lifted up his fist and smashed against young talents who were coming to kill from all directions!
This was a race for supremacy, the competition for a ring owner. Everyone wanted to dominate the world, and everyone wanted to become a protagonist of the era!
"Who dares to take a punch from me?"
Su Yan roared to the sky with true meanings filling his body. His body was like a furnace, unleashing infinite sky-cracking power that went straight at every coming talent.
He was extremely fast, aiming one punch after another at the enemies from all sides!
The fiercest rival!
Su Yan was unstoppable. His body was so strong that even the talents with the same realm couldn't hurt him!
Su Yan couldn’t help marveling at the specialty of the trail field.
After all, molding all the fallen talents' Qi of life into spirits so as to form the test of the second level was equivalent to accepting the strongest trail accumulated in the long history.
"Boom!"
Clashing sounds cracked in the ring. Powerful as he was, Su Yan could hardly withstand the allied assault of more than a dozen talents.
His body was beaten to shake and his skin was going to crack!
But he was so invincible, emanating terrible power from his body!
When the Alkaid Boxing revived and locked a talent, the talent trembled all over sharply under his one punch, seeming to be smashed into pieces by Su Yan.
Su Yan operated Incipient Scripture with the help of his physical advantages. Bearing all the brunt of other talents with difficulty, he rushed up at one fling and cracked this talent into pieces, which nearly blasted apart this Qi of Life!
But right at this moment, Su Yan's body roared. The Incipient Scripture was activated. Su Yan's body was like a furnace, seeming to seize the creation of heaven and earth!
This Qi of Life which was going to scatter was suddenly swallowed by the Incipient Scripture!
This original Qi could be called as the world's most amazing tonic, which made Su Yan's body so excited that he trembled. It seemed that Su Yan could plunder this Qi to nurture his life!
"What!"
The Old Taoist shot up suddenly. He couldn’t even believe it that Su Yan could swallow a mass of Qi of Life!
"Could it be..."
The Old Taoist widened his eyes suddenly with his hands clenched tightly.
He saw with his own eyes that Su Yan's body was fully awakened, and his Destiny Spring rumbled with loud scripture-chanting voices inside, which emitted the horrible waves of plundering the creation of heaven and earth!
Su Yan had swallowed the Qi of this talent!
This Qi seemed to nurture his body and even his life!
At this moment, Su Yan had a feeling of breaking free of manacles!
Absorbing the Qi of Life, his whole body began to metamorphose like the nirvana of a phoenix under the bathing of fire!
"Hahaha!"
Su Yan laughed to the sky. His fighting capacity was even stronger with an aura of killing spree spreading out.

Alive?
In the ruins of a once glorious city, a mage awakens. As the sole survivor(?) of the cataclysm that destroyed his entire species, he’s forced to adapt. While learning the intricacies of his new body, he must first carve out a place for himself in a familiar yet foreign world before he can set out to reclaim his heritage. I cannot stress this enough: the character is not human, do not expect him to react like one. I know the hand on the cover only has five finger, but I doubt I am going to find a royalty free radiography with two perfectly functional thumbs placed in a sensible way anytime soon. The rewrite is finished. Beta readers are welcomed and I am still wondering whether I should put the sci-fi tag or not.

The Curio Shoppe
Kellan Klein is an ordinary college student with an average, if traumatic and painful past. Everyone grows up grappling with depression and anxiety that seem to be genetic in a house with parents that, while loving, fight all the time and have weird ideas about what kids should and shouldn't do, right? Everyone deals with bullying, racism, judgement on their romantic inclinations and their family's economic status and just general shittiness, right? All of Kellan's friends sure did, and for all of them, entertaiment media were a welcome escape from their painful, dreary lives. After all, who wouldn't want to sail the seas with Monkey D. Luffy and the Strawhats, or help Meng Hao con increasingly powerful and influential people, or join Cecil Harvey and his friends on their weird journey to save the world, or make friends with Peter Parker while pretending to not know he was everyone's favorite wall-crawling superhero? Kellan certainly wanted to, and while he pursued college to seek out a career he saw himself enjoying, something felt inexplicably empty about his life. So when a decidely sinister force kidnaps him and the prettiest man he's ever seen saves his life and offers him his wildest dreams, Kellan becomes the shopkeeper of a mysterious, dimension hopping shop, complete with a system that helps him acquire items. abilities, materials, and other cool shit to stock it with, as well as some other neat perks. Will Kellan become a boring overpowered MC, like the kind from web fiction that he reads to sate his boredom? Will he keep his generally kind, sweet nature despite the shit he's gone through and will go through, or will he inexplicably become a scary, violent, irrational arrogant douchebag? Will he use his newfound abilities to explore the multiverse and improve the lives of himself and others, or will he become his own antithesis, a purely mercantile jerk obsessed with money and profit, with no concern for anything that doesn't help or hurt his business? Find out in The Curio Shoppe! Author's note: Please suggest possible setting he could visit in the comments. I'll gather ones i'm familiar with, and at the end of every arc, a poll will be held to decide the next location he visits. There will be polls for other purposes, and I might not always go with the poll winner if I feel one of the other options is more fun to read/write about. I will not use the settings of other RRL writers without their permission.Do not ask for that, unless the author in question gives permission. Most settings he visits will be slightly AU in some way or another, but please remind me if I drift too far from canon unintentionally or characterize a character wrongly. This work will eventually fit all tags I selected once he visits universes suited to those tags, so don't ask when or where a given tag is coming. I do not own the cover art, it belongs to Nicholas Belanger Thiel, and I will stop using it if he asks me to. Kellan doesn't look like the old man on the cover, though once he acquires a disguise-type ability he may occasionally use that appearance. The tapir, however, will be a thing, as despite looking like a failed attempt at an elephant, tapirs are cool and this dragon finds them to be kinda cute. The art, along with more of Nicholas's pieces, can be found at https://www.artstation.com/artwork/51bXz
