A new line of words quietly appeared on the proficiency panel.
[Cultivation Technique: Green Wood Year Ring Skill (One Ring One Revolution, proficiency 0.01%).]
When Su Yu converted all of his mana from Phoenix Tree Green Wood Secret Art to Green Wood Year Ring Skill, the line of words changed again.
[Cultivation Technique: Green Wood Year Ring Skill (One Ring Three Revolutions, proficiency 4.4%).]
The words Phoenix Tree Green Wood Secret Art had completely disappeared from the technique list, leaving only the Green Wood Year Ring Skill.
On Su Yu, there emanated an unspeakable aura of years and vicissitudes. At the same time, he gained new insights into the so-called “one ring one revolution” of the Green Wood Year Ring Skill.
Just like the growth rings of a tree, cultivating Green Wood Year Ring Skill is like etching the rings of years onto one’s body.
One ring for each century, one century for each revolution.
And each revolution is akin to shedding a layer of skin.
One step up with each revolution.
One ring three revolutions is equivalent to the third level of Qi Refinement Realm.
The original mana power of the Green Wood Year Ring Skill is not strong, but with each revolution and even each ring, the mana will transform and become stronger.
Besides, the Green Wood Year Ring Skill has a greater effect on lifespan than Phoenix Tree Green Wood Secret Art.
At the third level of the Qi Refinement Realm using Phoenix Tree Green Wood Secret Art, his lifespan was only a hundred years.
But now—
Su Yu glanced at his proficiency panel.
[Lifespan: 18/104.]
Just by switching to the Green Wood Year Ring Skill, his lifespan increased by four years.

“If I cultivate to the ninth level of Qi Refinement Realm, I can probably extend my life by thirty or forty years at least. The lifespan extension effect of the second ring is undoubtedly stronger, probably around seventy or eighty years,” Su Yu drew a sharp breath. This Green Wood Year Ring Skill is truly powerful.
Not to mention anything else, the life-extension effect alone is enough to make countless cultivators envious.
Having a significantly longer lifespan than other cultivators means a much higher chance of successfully cultivating to become a sage or an immortal.
Feeling the faint aura of time on his body, Su Yu frowned.
He always felt that this aura was more than it seemed.
It wasn’t simply extending lifespan.
Unfortunately, this aura was still too weak.
With the successful cultivation of the Green Wood Year Ring Skill, Su Yu was in high spirits. This single technique was worth his personal trip to the Yunshan Market.
“Next, I’ll try to cultivate the ‘Blood Whale Swallowing the Moon’ Skill” Su Yu thought to himself.
The Green Wood Year Ring Skill is somewhat more difficult to cultivate than the Phoenix Tree Green Wood Secret Art, but Su Yu found that the aura of time on his body can gather the spiritual energy of plants and trees from heaven and earth.
Thus, the cultivation speed of the Green Wood Year Ring Skill is not slower than that of Phoenix Tree Green Wood Secret Art.
It would not be a problem to break through to the fourth level of Qi Refinement Realm in about two years.
Besides this.
Su Yu was also cultivating the “Crocodile Demon 108 Body Refinement Techniques”. With the power of late-stage first-order monster essence blood, the progress of his body refinement cultivation progressed rapidly.
Less than two months after Su Yu returned, having consumed more than half of the late-stage first-order monster’s essence blood, he finally broke through to the fifth level of body refinement.
Not long after breaking through to the fifth level of body refinement, the hitherto unprogressing “Blood Whale Swallowing the Moon” skill suddenly made breakthrough overnight.
[Cultivation Technique: Crocodile Demon 108 Body Refinement Techniques (Fifth Level, Proficiency 0.28%), Blood Whale Swallowing the Moon Skill (First Stage, Proficiency 0.01%).]
Hum!
Under the thick curtain of night, only a sliver of starlight managed to penetrate through the window and shine into the room.
Su Yu’s body was suddenly ablaze with a fierce bloodlight. All the blood energy in his body concentrated in his heart, causing a loud rumble in his mind, just like a deafening thunderclap.
For a moment, Su Yu felt slightly dazed.
At this moment, with the endless blood energy converging in his heart, a drop of golden blood formed.
This drop of golden blood, like a core crystal, radiated an indescribable ferocity, as if it were a peerless demon.
“Thump! Thump! Thump!”
The moment the blood took form, Su Yu’s heartbeat echoed like the rolling of war drums. His heart seemed to transform, its beats slower, but each surge of blood was more powerful.
As time passed slowly.
When the sun began to rise, strands of golden red light shed on Su Yu. He opened his eyes, a hint of bloodlust shimmered in them.
At that moment, an authority as if from the ruler of the Demon Clan emerged from his body.
However, this aura was only a flicker before it vanished.
Rousing from his cultivation, Su Yu studied his body closely, his expression somewhat vacant.
The changes were dramatic.
Besides the transformation of his heart, even the color of his blood had slightly altered.
It was unlike the gold-infused blood from his heart that resembled a crystal nucleus.
But after one night of transformation, the color of his blood had turned into a dark gold hue.
Moreover, after the transformation, his body refinement power seemed to have received a boost.
“Compared to the simple Crocodile Demon 108 Physical Training Techniques, the physical strength has increased by at least thirty percent,” Su Yu sensitively assessed.
However—
“Gurgle! Gurgle!”
He was so hungry!
Su Yu felt that every cell in his body was crying out, feeling extremely hollow, as if the Divine Skills faux source he had condensed the night before had drained his body of all its energy.
Bearing the hunger, Su Yu immediately took out some dried monster meat and Spirit Rice he had prepared earlier and started to cook.
In this meal, he consumed a total of thirty catties of inferior Spirit Rice and roughly fifty catties of monster meat before he was satisfied.
With every bite of Spirit Rice and monster meat he swallowed,
The warmth spread all over his body in the blink of an eye, with all cells fighting fiercely for it.
Feeling satisfied.
“My appetite has grown so much, and my body seems to digest this food more easily,” Su Yu noticed the changes in his body.
Having had so much, his body digested it all at one go.
He didn’t feel bloated at all.
After digesting these foods, Su Yu noticed that most of the strength was swallowed by the blood whale swallowing moon’s core in his heart.
“To accumulate it to the fullest, it will probably take at least half a year,” Su Yu thought to himself.
At the first state of the Blood Whale Swallowing Moon Skill, once the core strength is fully accumulated, the outbreak of faux Divine Skills can double his physical strength.
This is his trump card.
It may not only save his life at a critical moment but also kill the enemy!
With his increased appetite, the monster group of rats beneath the medicinal herb garden seemed like delicious pots of stew in Su Yu’s eyes, and he increased the frequency of hunting.
While he was eating meat, he could also save up some Spirit Stones for cultivation again.
Strangely, in the following time, Lin Family seemed to have quieted down a lot. Their conflicts with the Su Family gradually decreased, but no one knew what the Lin Family was thinking.
Half a year later.
The Su Family finally brought in a first-rank Land Master, spending a hefty sum of money to have him perform a dragon-searching technique to locate the root of the Spirit Vein and construct a piece of blessed land for the Su Family.
Strictly speaking, a Land Master is a type of Array Master.
But compared to a regular Array Master, a Land Master is seen as more prestigious and mysterious.
Ordinary members of the Su Family may not understand what a Land Master is, but Su Yu, who had played a cultivation game in his previous life and had practiced the secondary profession of Land Master, understood well.
A Land Master… in the game, everytime you learned this secondary profession and performed a dragon-searching operation, you often lost some lifespan.
The game introduced it as such, Land Masters are the chosen ones of heaven and earth, capable of performing dragon-searching techniques that could reach the nine heavens or determine the earth dragons, they were omnipotent.
Land Masters are the secondary profession that most easily obtains treasure. If they wanted to find a Spirit Vein, it was not difficult at all.
Of course, it depends on actual ability.
However, what you gain comes with a loss. The heavenly ability of a Land Master comes at the cost of life.
All Land Masters, unless they can resist the temptations of treasure and not perform the secret dragon-searching technique, would lose lifespan each time they perform the secret technique.
So, to convince a Land Master to help is not easy. Even for a beginner first-rank Land Master, the Su Family had to bleed a hefty sum of money.
