Tribulation of Myriad Races

Thanks to Wu Lan, Su Yu no longer felt as lost about the missing acupoints. He had been feeling gloomy after failing to discover the remaining acupoints even after going through numerous cultivation methods. With this new discovery, his mood improved significantly.

"Wu Lan, this will be your main focus for now!"

Su Yu had a solemn face as he assigned this heavy responsibility to Wu Lan. Listening to Su Yu, Wu Lan looked incomparably solemn as well. One would thought that she was a general who was about to set off to the battlefield from that expression of hers.

Sure enough, Su Yu would not be able to achieve anything without her. She had a heavy task on her shoulders.

Su Yu resisted the urge to laugh as he looked at Wen Zhong and said, "Senior Brother, I need your help with something as well. I have a cultivation method that shares a lot of acupoints with the 36-acupoint fusion art. But it's slightly weaker than the Great Strength Art."

He did not even need to finish his sentence. Wen Zhong directly said, "Are you intending to replace the Great Strength Art with this cultivation method?"

"Yes." Su Yu nodded.

Wen Zhong solemnly said, "The Great Strength Art is a product of countless tests. It does not provide its cultivator with a lot of acupoints, but it is very compatible with the human race. It is also not recommended to change one's cultivation method at the Great Strength or the Infinite Strength Realm. Unless...this new cultivation method of yours is as suitable to the masses as the Great Strength Art.

"Of course, with the existence of your fusion art, if this cultivation method is only slightly weaker than the Great Strength Art without any adverse effects, it won't be that hard to disseminate.

"But a complete cultivation method is more than a bunch of acupoints and the circulation pathway. A complementary martial technique is required. A complementary body forging technique will make it even more attractive as it can benefit one even at the Skysoar Realm during the body forging stage. And if you can add a complementary art for the nine transformations of Cloudbreach, it will be even more perfect." Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt

"Junior Brother Su, the popularity of a cultivation method does not rely only on its acupoints or its strength at the Great Strength and Infinite Strength Realms. Instead, the entire system needs to be complete. It can't be something that only covers the two realms.

"Fusion arts are different as they are supplementary in nature. But if I'm understanding you correctly, you intend to disseminate your new cultivation method and your fusion art as a set."

Su Yu nodded, "I understand what you mean. I do have scomplementary cultivation methods for the higher realms, including the body-forging art. But I don't think I can provide anything for the nine transformation stage right now.

"I can try to cout with something in the future. Also, even if I really can't find anything suitable, there are many independent body forging and nine transformation arts out there. It is not necessary to bring everything together in a single system."

It wouldn't be a big issue for one to cultivate something different during the body forging and nine transformation stages. Of course, the compatibility would definitely be higher if one cultivated an entire set of cultivation methods.

Wen Zhong said, "Sure. We can give it a try. But...I still suggest that you recruit more people. In all honesty, I might know a lot about acupoints and apertures, but I don't know too much about body forging and nine transformations."

Everyone had something they were good at. It was unrealistic to expect him to know everything.

"Alright. I'll recruit a few seniors after this."

Su Yu actually agreed that he needed to recruit more people. This project of his wasn't something he could complete in a short period of time. But he didn't want to stay silent in the meantime. He hesitated slightly and asked, "Senior Brother, what if I disseminate a complete set of foundation cultural art? Will that attract troubles?"

"Definitely."

Wen Zhong said, "A foundation cultural art is different from something like the Myriad Text Sutra. After all, a foundation cultural art can help someone open apertures at the Mental Tempering Stage. It will allow someone to rapidly gain strength upon reaching the Skysoar Realm. And one can easily switch to the Myriad Text Sutra after running out of apertures to open."

Su Yu shook his head, "There won't be a need for any switching. I can provide a 72-aperture art."

Wen Zhong's expression instantly changed. A 72-aperture foundation cultural art!

This signified that one no longer needed to worry about switching cultivation methods at a higher realm. One could afford to spend more tat the Mental Tempering Stage as one would be able to rapidly go through the Skysoar Realm to reach the Cloudbreach Realm upon breakthrough.

More importantly, something like this would allow numerous people to start cultivating at a much younger age instead of waiting until the Skysoar Realm.

The Zhu Family was a very powerful family. Yet even a family so powerful was treating a 24-aperture foundation cultural art as a priceless treasure.

The difference between 24 and 36 apertures wasn't that big. But 72 apertures was an entirely different case. It could rapidly alter the landscape of all human researchers in a short period of time. Or to be precise, it could rapidly change everything involving those below the Mountainsea Realm. Perhaps in about three to five years, a new batch of Cloudbreaches would be produced.

Wen Zhong's face turned solemn. This was a much bigger deal than he had imagined before this. Su Yu...was truly a man of surprises. No, rather than surprising, he was scary. Could they even risk disseminating a 72-aperture art?

They would be fine disseminating a 36-aperture art. But Wen Zhong really wasn't sure about 72 apertures. He said, "We need to ask the prefect about this first. The moment you start disseminating it, the human race will not dare to openly do anything toward you. But you will probably be subjected to numerous assassinations by the cult or even the myriad races themselves.

"Of course, as long as you remain in the Human Realm, they won't bother sending Invincibles into the Human Realm just for something that will only affect those below the Mountainsea Realm. Nevertheless, you will still bring strouble for yourself. You will only be safe if you remain in your research center all the time. You also need a guarantee from the Zhu Family.

"Su Yu, you need to know that the true researchers among cultural researchers are considered the true sources of wisdom. The various prefectures and even the myriad races attach a lot of importance to this. Assassinations are very frequent when it comes to true researchers."

Su Yu nodded, "I understand. But it's impossible to gain enough fto sweep through the entire Human Realm without taking any risk. A 72-aperture foundation cultural art is very valuable. I know that. But as you said, this is something that can only change things for those below the Mountainsea Realm."

That was basically a sort of compromise. Only at the Mountainsea Realm and above would one bectruly important.

No matter how many Cloudbreaches the human race produce, they wouldn't change the general fate of the race. In such a situation, the myriad races would not put undue effort on assassinating Su Yu. Invincibles would unlikely be dispatched, but it was likely that Sunmoons might still be sent after him.

Wen Zhong's expression changed again.

The moment this cultivation method was released, the situation within the Human Realm would change. More importantly, Great Ming would suddenly rise to the forefront instead of hiding in the background like before. It would becthe focal point of all humanity.

"Let's go. We'll see the prefect."

Wen Zhong did not dare to offer any suggestion. A Cloudbreach like him couldn't make such an important decision. They needed to ask the Zhu Family about this. Su Yu prepared to leave as well. As he glanced at Wu Lan who was still busy studying the puppet, he had the urge to roll his eyes.

Was she even listening to them? But he had to admit that when Wu Lan got serious, she really did look like a proper researcher. Perhaps this was really the most suitable path for her.

Even before joining an academy, Wu Lan had already taken on stranslation jobs for sresearch projects. She knew a lot more languages than Su Yu. Not bothering to disturb the focused Wu Lan, Su Yu and Wen Zhong left the research center without saying anything to her.

The sky was already dark, but the entire academy was still bustling with activity. Or to be precise, the entire academy seemed to be filled with joy and jubilation. Students could be seen doing all sorts of activities in groups. Swere chatting away, swere murmuring endearments to each other, swere reciting poetry...

Seeing that scene, Wen Zhong took a look at the serious Su Yu. He sighed. He didn't know if it was a good thing for Su Yu to join the Great Ming Cultural Research Academy. He only knew that the long-lasting peace here would probably end soon. Their academy would turn into the focus of all humanity and the myriad races.

Also, if this cultivation method was really released, it would replace the Myriad Text Sutra. Since the Knowledge Seeking Realm was the distributor of the Myriad Text Sutra, they might take offense as well.
