Chapter 1728: Reinventing Transformations
Back at Cave of the Slanting Moon and Three Stars, Wu Yu had already cultivated the soul bestowing apotheosis immortal technique. It was a fundamental that all eternal immortal emperors would definitely learn.
He had been busy so far, but now he was already a second tier immortal emperor. Wu Yu felt that if he put off creating mortals any longer, his Devouring Apotheosis Realm’s development would suffer.
Plus, the mortals he made would be mere babies, weak and frail.
The earlier he made them, the earlier they would procreate and multiply.
Very quickly, Wu Yu made a few hundred people within Devouring Apotheosis Realm. They were all very weak,, ordinary mortal babies. Forget cultivation, even survival was a problem for now.
Of course, there were no dangers in Devouring Apotheosis Realm, and the environment was fully controlled by him. He provided a few necessary survival skills, and they could provide for themselves.
As for cultivation, these mortals could not possibly receive spiritual arts now either. After they multiplied a bit more, they would begin to figure it out, just like mortals on other lesser realms.
These mortals were linked to Wu Yu’s bloodline, and he was unwilling to let them come to any harm.
Let alone to kill them of his own accord.
Thinking back to the two immortal buddhas fighting, and how eagerly they had devoured their mortals to supplement their own strength, Wu Yu shuddered at their callousness. It was as if they had lost all reason.
After creating a few hundred mortals, Wu Yu turned his attention back to other business.
"I wonder how things are back at the sky palaces?" Wu Yu sighed.
He had been in Heavenly Buddha’s Domain for a few thousand years now, and he had yet to deal with the matter of Nangong Wei and Ming Long.
Nangong Wei could wait. Even if Wu Yu was in the sky palaces, it would be hard for him to see much of a change. He might not be able to help her.
But Ming Long was one of the closest people to him. Besides, she did not know a single person in the sky palaces. And yet she was supposed to fight the spirit remnant of the Heaven Devouring Evil Lord herself. That was extremely dangerous.
Wu Yu was truly afraid that by the time he returned to the sky palaces, there would be no more Ming Long.
"Old Wu, what about trying to use the bronze ball to return to Eternal Emperor Tomb?" Full Moon of Nanshan suggested.
They had no other goal in Heavenly Buddha’s Domain now. If they could return to Eternal Emperor Tomb, they could get to the sky palaces through there.
"Not sure if that would work. Besides, if we left, when would we next be able to come here?" Wu Yu frowned.
Luo Pin shook her head. "I think it’s better not to leave for now. After all, the Ruyi Jingu Bang brought us here for a reason. If we just leave like that, we might have missed an opportunity."
"Makes sense."
Full Moon of Nanshan rapped himself on the head. "Perhaps the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal is trying to tell us something, something hidden somewhere in the Heavenly Buddha’s Domain. How about poking around?"
"There’s no rush. The Heavenly Buddha’s Domain is huge. Finding what we’re supposed to won’t be a day’s work. Let’s continue cultivating, and we’ll be able to do stronger poking when we get to it." Wu Yu suggested in turn.
They agreed, and decided to spend some time firming up their skills.
There was no immortal essence qi in the Heavenly Buddha’s Domain for them to cultivate with.
However, Wu Yu was already at the Eternal Immortality Realm, and could allow them into his Devouring Apotheosis Realm. Wu Yu had just devoured the divine sarira, and could transfer the excess power and knowledge to them.
Luo Pin, Full Moon of Nanshan, and Ye Xixi all cultivated very hard now. After all, they did not want to be burdens for Wu Yu.
As Wu Yu started to Impart knowledge and strength, they began to work towards eternal life.
Eternal immortal emperor, ghostly emperor, demon emperor. The three cultivated in different ways, towards the same goal. And the power of the divine sarira supported all of them equally.
Of course, eternal life was a considerable barrier. Even for 9-heavens immortal kings, it was difficult to get past. They had to work doubly hard by themselves.
While he Imparted to them, Wu Yu began to think of how he would improve from hereon as well.
It seemed like besides improving his cultivation realm, there were two other ways to grow stronger. One was to remove more seals on the Ruyi Jingu Bang. he had already unlocked three. If he could remove a few more, the Ruyi Jingu Bang would definitely grow stronger.
But this was mainly a matter of luck as well. Wu Yu could not just undo them at will, not with his current strength.
Only in the right circumstances, when he joined strength with the Ruyi Jingu Bang itself, could the seals be broken.
As for such chances, Wu Yu could not create them by himself.
Besides removing the seals on the Ruyi Jingu Bang, there was also Ground Demon Transformation Art, which included the Fixed Body Art, Violent Art, Swift Art, Spirit Penetration Art, and Spirit Chaser Art. These were all part of the 72 Transformations.
As Wu Yu reached the eternal immortal emperor realm, these Ground Demon Transformation Arts all took on new abilities. They were refreshed as apotheosis immortal techniques that would serve him well as an eternal immortal emperor in fights.
This was what Wu Yu could do - to review the Ground Demon Transformation Arts and make them into usable apotheosis immortal techniques!
Next, he spent another 10,000 years revising these from an eternal immortal emperor’s perspective. He turned them all into apotheosis immortal techniques that would do well in fights.
First was the Fixed Body Art. Wu Yu remembered that this had helped him greatly in the beginning. Thanks to the Fixed Body Art, he had survived the Dong Yue Wu Kingdom, and managed to make it to the greater world outside.
He had then thrown it into a corner for a long time. It was not that he had been unwilling to use it, but that he had always been fighting opponents beyond his cultivation realm, and the Fixed Body Art could not be used.
And during the Immortal Emperor Trials, it had been hard to use Fixed Body Art before it had reached the apotheosis immortal technique level.
Things were different now. After reinventing Fixed Body Art, it could channel Wu Yu’s apotheosis immortal energy to freeze his opponent in an instant. It would be effective even against immortal buddhas and immortal emperors a tier or two above him!
The weaker his opponent was, the longer he could paralyze them for. For those at the same cultivation realm, he need only hold them for several breaths’ of time to secure the win.
Even against stronger opponents, Fixed Body Art could also help him to create chances, delay time, or augment Wu Yu’s other attacks.
The same Mystique, but now reinvented with the power of apotheosis immortal energy. The effects it could bring were completely different.
He next worked on Violent Art.
Wu Yu had still be using Violent Art all the while, the same old move even when he had reached the immortal emperor level. That was how strong it had been. Now with his new insights, he could charge it with his apotheosis immortal energy.
If he could stack it with Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth’s 100 times strength, Wu Yu felt that he could fight opponents two tiers above him. Of course, Violent Art still had the same drawback even after its transformation, which was that the aftereffects were punishing.
Violent Art boosted his own strength, but once his apotheosis immortal energy was all used up, he would be left drained. If his opponent was still standing after that, Wu Yu would be in trouble.
Therefore, Violent Art was still reserved for emergencies.
Fixed Body Art, Violent Art. They had both helped Wu Yu out greatly in the past. Besides that, the Spirit Penetration Art, Spirit Chaser Art, and Swift Art had also been incredibly useful in the past. If he had not had these Mystiques, he would have fallen along the way long ago.
Spirit Chaser Art was too useful to even qualify. He had used it in many situations before. Without it, Nangong Wei’s consciousness would have faded long ago already.
As for Swift Art, it had helped to boost Wu Yu to a frightening speed.
Although he had Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth to boost his speed by 100 times, but it cut his strength as well, and so could only be used for escape.
Whereas Swift Art was a speed boost that did not affect his strength. It could be used equally in offense and defense, and enhanced his overall agility in battle.
And Spirit Penetration Art. Although he rarely used this in battle, but it had helped him speed quickly through understanding immortal designs and other Mystiques while cultivating.
After its transformation, Wu Yu now understood epochal immortal designs many times faster. When next he returned to Eternal Emperor Tomb, he would be able to work much more quickly.
Wu Yu steadily turned these Ground Demon Transformation Arts into apotheosis immortal techniques, which made him even more powerful and versatile!
