Supreme Warrior in the City

Su Yang curled his lips. The reason he brought these three guys along was genuinely because he needed their help.

Su Yang previously sought out the Green Cicada Saint King to find its Treasure House, but it took a great deal of effort. The Treasure Houses of other Saint Kings are also very well-hidden and extremely difficult to locate.

It can be said that killing a Saint King is easy, but finding the Treasure House of a Saint King is much more challenging. Otherwise, how dare these Saint Kings place their Treasure Houses inside the Royal City and go about their business?

Bringing these three guys makes things a bit easier. They might not have other skills, but their treasure-hunting skills are unmatched. Taking them along for killing and looting can significantly reduce the time spent searching for treasures and make things much safer.

Moreover, the main reason is that these three guys are likely to be from the same era as the former Guardian Gods of the Heavenly Warrior. Taking them out for a walk to see if they can recover some memories might uncover some ancient secrets.

However, the most critical thing before that is to enhance strength.

Su Yang led these three guys across over a dozen Dynasties to a barren land, and then stopped.

This area once had an Intermediate World, but later was wiped out by the Demon Beast Clan, leaving it desolate.

This place is quite distant from the Demon Beast Clan, the Human Clan World, and the Guardian God.

Su Yang chose this place for closed-door cultivation.

Carrying the Treasure House from the Green Cicada Saint King, Su Yang plans to use all the Spiritual Sources inside and then start hunting other Saint Kings to seize Spiritual Sources.

He allocated some Spiritual Sources to those three guys and released Long Qiu to scout for information. As for Su Yang himself, he summoned the illusion of Devouring the World and began cultivation.

The Green Cicada Saint King’s Treasure House is abundant with Spiritual Sources. If it were an ordinary Saint King absorbing them fully, it would likely take hundreds or thousands of years to absorb them all.

However, for Su Yang, this task is much easier. With the Secret Technique of Devouring the World enhancing him, his absorption speed is a hundred times stronger than an average Saint King. Thus, in less than ten years, he had absorbed all of the Spiritual Sources.

Su Yang himself gained significant harvest; in ten years, he advanced further, reaching the Advanced Saint King stage. But he is still somewhat away from the Peak Realm.

Peaking at Saint King is difficult to achieve, and from Advanced Saint King to Peak of Saint King, Su Yang calculated that at least a hundred or so Saint King’s Treasure Houses must be plundered to gather enough Spiritual Sources. It’s not an easy task.

After exiting closed-door cultivation, Su Yang scattered his Spiritual Sense, quickly locating the three Crystal Skulls who were cultivating in the distance.

With his strength increased, Su Yang’s sensing ability also improved. With his Spiritual Sense dispersed, he could perceive all movements within thousands of miles around him, which is the strength of a Saint King.

The three Crystal Skulls were located five thousand miles away from Su Yang. He didn’t need to tear through space; just a few steps and he was right next to these guys.

The three Crystal Skulls were still meditating in the Void, cultivating. They hadn’t yet completely absorbed the Spiritual Source given to them by Su Yang. Compared to Su Yang’s speed, they were really lacking.

Su Yang’s sudden appearance startled these three, and the Second City Lord immediately put away the Spiritual Source and turned to flee.

”Don’t panic, it’s me!” Su Yang immediately shouted.

Seeing it’s Su Yang, they finally breathed a sigh of relief. The Second City Lord said irritably, ”Boss, next time can you give us a heads up before you appear? You’re really frightening us appearing out of nowhere.”

”If you haven’t done anything wrong, you need not fear ghosts knocking at midnight!” Su Yang glanced at him, ”Have you done something to make your heart uneasy?”

”What wrong have I done?” The Second City Lord immediately shook his head, ”Boss, this is the Endless Starry Sky; who knows what powerful beings might pass by here. Our little strength here probably isn’t enough even against a single finger from them. We’re already on edge cultivating here, and then you scare us like this; how can we not be scared?”

”That’s why you should cultivate quickly. Once you’re strong enough, you won’t need to worry about these things,” said Su Yang.

”We want to cultivate, but we have no Spiritual Source!” said the Second City Lord.

Su Yang curled his lips; he had just seen this guy putting away the Spiritual Source earlier, pretending to be pitiful.

However, Su Yang didn’t reveal him and simply smiled, saying, ”That’s why I came to find you. Next, I’m going to lead you to make a fortune, so you won’t have to worry about lacking Spiritual Source again in the future!”

”Really?” The three Crystal Skulls all became excited.

”Of course, otherwise why would I bring you out!” Su Yang waved his hand, ”Alright, enough said. Let’s go find Long Qiu and then look for Spiritual Sources!”

Su Yang took the three Crystal Skulls straight to the nearest Demon Beast Dynasty, to where he sent Long Qiu earlier.

Su Yang wanted Long Qiu to scout for information, and the best place for that is the Royal City. Of course, information from the Imperial City can be even more prevalent, but Su Yang didn’t dare to approach the Dynasty, so he sent Long Qiu to a Royal City in this area.

When they found Long Qiu, he was leisurely living in the Royal City.

Although the outside beasts look no different from wild animals, inside the Royal City, it resembles a simple city. In this place, Demon Beasts are primarily Holy Beasts, and Holy Beasts are intelligent like humans, living in Royal Cities and such.

Su Yang had been to Jinghong City before, which is like a city-state of the Demon Beast Clan. Inside it not only has various buildings but also trading venues, trading various items. Even Spiritual Sources can be traded.

Su Yang previously gave Long Qiu some scattered Spiritual Sources, which were inconspicuous in value yet high. So, in these ten years, Long Qiu lived comfortably in the Royal City. Not to mention, upon seeing him, he had clearly gained some weight, unlike when Su Yang first met him.

Long Qiu had seen Su Yang transform into a Demon Beast before, so when Su Yang veiled as a Demon Beast appeared, Long Qiu immediately recognized him. Quietly, he followed Su Yang and the others out of the Royal City and met Su Yang outside the Demon Beast Area.
