Supreme Warrior in the City

Su Yang sat cross-legged in the void, quietly watching everything that was happening in front of him.

The Undying Golden Body and the Undying Bone were being continuously refined, and the Pangu Axe was also being tirelessly honed.

As for him, he was like a bystander, only able to watch all of this silently.

Initially, Su Yang could only observe all this in boredom for a period of time.

Later, one day, Su Yang suddenly had a whimsical idea—perhaps he could use this Misty Qi to refine his own soul.

After all, if the Undying Golden Body and the Undying Bone were being refined and his soul was too weak to keep up, that wouldn’t be appropriate either.

Thinking of this, Su Yang immediately started to try.

He slowly flew to the side of the Misty Qi, trying to make contact with it.

However, upon contact, a powerful force suddenly burst out and directly hit Su Yang’s soul.

Su Yang’s soul was nearly shattered, frightening him into a hasty retreat, taking a while to gradually calm down.

Scrutinizing the Misty Qi, Su Yang felt somewhat frustrated—it seemed his idea was not suitable.

The power of this Misty Qi was truly terrifying, and his soul, having no protection whatsoever, was no different from the soul of an ordinary strongest.

Approaching the Misty Qi was simply courting death. Not to mention refining his soul, it was questionable if he could even survive getting too close.

He retreated a bit more, staying far away, lest the Misty Qi suddenly unleash its might and strike at him.

Fortunately, the Misty Qi showed no intention of attacking him, merely refining his Pangu Axe over there.

To be more precise, one could say that the Pangu Axe was absorbing the Misty Qi, very peculiar.

Su Yang wandered around nearby for a while, finding it tedious, so he began to continue observing the Misty Qi.

After some observation, Su Yang suddenly noticed a situation.

Although this Misty Qi was formidable, when absorbed by the Pangu Axe, this power didn’t affect the axe.

Moreover, the Misty Qi also had contact with the World Tree.

This powerful Misty Qi also didn’t impact the World Tree; they seemed to coexist harmoniously, rather mysteriously.

Su Yang’s heart stirred.

While his soul couldn’t touch the Misty Qi, the World Tree could.

Could he use the World Tree to absorb this Misty Qi to refine the World Tree?

If this were indeed possible, wouldn’t that amount to indirectly refining his soul?

After all, the World Tree and his soul were one.

Refining the soul was the same as refining the World Tree, and refining the World Tree was also the same as refining his soul!

With this in mind, Su Yang immediately took action.

He dared not approach the Misty Qi himself, but he could let the World Tree approach it.

The World Tree was part of his soul, and he could command it at will, let it act or change form.

A tendril stretched out from within the World Tree, extending into the Misty Qi.

Initially, Su Yang had prepared for a counter from the Misty Qi, but in reality, nothing unexpected happened.

The tendril penetrated the Misty Qi without encountering resistance.

On the contrary, the Misty Qi surprisingly began to nourish the tendril.

Wave after wave of powerful energy flowed back into the World Tree through the tendril.

Su Yang’s soul was one with the World Tree, and he could clearly sense that the World Tree was being refined, and so was his soul.

Su Yang was overjoyed; he had finally found a way to refine his soul.

In this way, whether it was his Undying Golden Body and Undying Bone, his Divine Artifact, or his soul, they could all be refined.

This was him enhancing his power!

Even though he didn’t understand how all these things were happening or how the Misty Qi came about.

But being able to enhance his strength was always a good thing; who wouldn’t want to become stronger?

Feeling the power of the Misty Qi, Su Yang let the World Tree extend a few more tendrils into the Misty Qi to absorb the power within.

Thus, hundreds of years passed, and on this day, as Su Yang was in cultivation, he suddenly sensed someone arriving outside the World Tree.

Undoubtedly, it was the Human Emperor and others arriving.

Su Yang immediately ceased cultivation, attempting to communicate with his Undying Golden Body and Undying Bone, preparing to merge and go out to meet the Human Emperor and others.

Events inside the World Tree were something even Su Yang himself didn’t know whether it was good or bad, and he couldn’t explain it to those outside.

Moreover, although the Guardian God had been completely defeated, Su Yang didn’t know if there were hidden elements of the Guardian God within the Human Clan. Some things, Su Yang couldn’t yet reveal.

So, the matters inside the World Tree had to remain hidden for now. When the time was right, he would inform the people outside.

Previously, Su Yang wanted to merge the Undying Golden Body and the Undying Bone, but it was extremely difficult.

Su Yang had to make numerous attempts, putting in a great deal of effort each time to succeed.

After merging, they would quickly fall apart again, as though his Undying Golden Body and Undying Bone were beyond his control.

This was why Su Yang dared not tell anyone about his situation.

He feared that some ill-intentioned individuals might seize the opportunity to cause him trouble.

If the Undying Golden Body and Undying Bone couldn’t merge, he would be left with just a soul, unable to defend himself.

This time, something unexpected happened.

With a mental command, Su Yang’s Undying Golden Body and Undying Bone flew directly to him, merging with his soul.

This situation shocked Su Yang—what was the situation?

Previously, managing the Undying Golden Body and Undying Bone was extremely difficult; how had it suddenly become so easy?

Moreover, after merging the Undying Golden Body and Undying Bone, Su Yang developed a mysterious sensation.

This feeling was very peculiar; it was as if it was his first real understanding of the Undying Golden Body and Undying Bone.

The Undying Golden Body and Undying Bone were inherently part of Su Yang. He later lent them to the Buddha Venerable and the Heaven Slayer, allowing them to split successfully, thus enabling all their future achievements.

Afterwards, when those two succeeded in their cultivation, they returned the Undying Golden Body and Undying Bone to Su Yang.

Although Su Yang possessed the Undying Golden Body and Undying Bone, and he could use them, the Undying Bone remained a complete mystery to Su Yang.

He didn’t know how the Undying Golden Body and Undying Bone came to be, nor how they were cultivated.

This seemed to be something left over from his previous life, cultivated in a past existence. But the issue was, he couldn’t recall any memory concerning these two at all.
