It seems to be an important figure.
Su Yu couldn't figure it out for the time being, and didn't waste time speculating.
Soul Power circulated, Qi and Blood Power surged.
Inside Su Yu's body, Qi and Blood Power washed through, and deep in the bones, Qi and Blood Power continuously tempered the bones in a special way.
A trace of Spiritual Power was infused by Su Yu into the Qi and Blood Power, modifying the bones as it washed over them.
Having reached his limit in cultivation, Su Yu mobilized Qi and Blood Power to condense outside his body.
A circle formed of blood Qi was condensed by him.
However, Su Yu was not satisfied.
"How can the Qi Blood Soul Ring be condensed?"
The blood Qi circle that was merely a superficial form had no power, providing no boost to combat, but instead becoming a burden.
Su Yu pondered the possibility of condensing a Qi Blood Soul Ring.
After a night of cultivation, the next morning, Su Yu left Celestial Armor City with Zou Yun and others.
"I don't know what's going on with this Celestial Armor City, suddenly last night they started strictly checking everyone's whereabouts and identities."
"Bad luck, last night was the most comfortable time of relaxation, TMD a group of City Guards came and interrupted my rest."
"Alright, alright, let's relax properly once we get back to Tiandou City."
"..."
On the way, Zou Yun introduced the operation details of the Guard Team to Su Yu beside him.
Other members of the Guard Team were discussing how to relax and rest.
"Little Su, although Tiandou City is our base, there are still many big figures in the city, I can only say we have connections at the back, so we are not afraid of trouble.
But if the situation allows, try to keep a low profile and don't cause trouble."
Su Yu nodded.
He had no intention of flaunting the name of a Guard Team member to do whatever he pleased.
This small Guard Team led by a Soul Sect couldn't handle it either.
Tiandou City has far more depth than Celestial Armor City.
It's estimated that there is more than one Soul Saint living in seclusion within the city.
This was originally the Imperial Capital of the Celestial Battle Empire, with countless families passing on their legacies in Tiandou City.
After the Empire split, Tiandou City belonged to the Celestial Soul Empire, though the Celestial Soul Royal Family did not choose to establish the capital in Tiandou City.
Nevertheless, Tiandou City remains a grand city.
The rich historical foundation and original scale ensured that Tiandou City would not decline.
"Come, we're almost there," Zou Yun said.
Su Yu looked at the surroundings, not luxurious, but away from the hustle and bustle, with complete facilities around.
The headquarters of the Guard Team was a sizable courtyard.
The entire large martial arts field was for the members of the Guard Team to hone their Soul Skills.
Although the work of guards often involves escorting, encountering real robbery that requires fighting is rare, but having strong strength as a foundation is essential.
The two leaders of the Kuangyun Guard Team, both the main and vice captains, paid a lot of attention to this aspect.
Each member has set goals every year, related to their treatment within the Guard Team.
"Boss Zou, Brother Kuang just led a team on a mission, Douling Empire has another shipment."
"Huh? More work?"
Zou Yun was quite surprised.
"Didn't they just come last month? Has the production increased so much recently?"
"Hehe, Brother Kuang said that they sent word saying the technology has improved."
Su Yu listened in confusion, seeing his puzzled expression, Zou Yun personally explained a bit.
"Little Su, this is a secret code of our Guard Team, the goods from that side of Douling Empire are what I mentioned to you before, Blood Essence."
The reporting member looked shocked, his gaze wandering between Zou Yun and Su Yu.
This young brother seems quite valued, getting such confidential information right after joining as a newcomer?
"Come, Songzi, this is Little Su, he is a genius, already a Grand Soul Master at fifteen," Zou Yun said to Songzi.
Songzi suddenly understood.
No wonder.
Both Boss Zou and Brother Kuang, the two captains, have been troubled early on, clamoring to find a genius who could uphold their reputation.
Now that they've recruited one, no wonder the boss valued him so much, directly revealing the core income source of the team.
"Boss Zou, is the production of Blood Essence still unstable?"
Su Yu was quite curious about Blood Essence.
This is a crystal containing pure Bloodline Power, and no one has yet studied the formation conditions of this crystal thoroughly.
Blood Essence can refine physique, strengthen Qi and Blood, and is most beneficial to the Holy Spirit Sect and Essence Sect.
The Holy Spirit Sect uses Blood Essence to enhance physique, compensating for the injuries caused by their methods to the body.
While the Essence Sect absorbs Blood Essence to refine Qi and Blood, cultivating Secret Techniques.
Su Yu himself also needs to temper Qi and Blood, so this Blood Essence might be useful to him, and he pays close attention to it.
Part of the reason for joining the Kuangyun Guard Team was this aspect.
"The Blood Essence is cooperated with us by a sect within the Douling Empire, and they don't know where they're mining the Blood Essence.
In any case, they dare not reveal it, and can only sell it quietly through our channels.
Our Kuangyun Guard Team has a stable sales route and never had any issues, we are considered their major clients."
Su Yu frowned.
The Kuangyun Guard Team is indeed sizable, spanning the Three Great Empires of Sun and Moon, Celestial Soul, and Douling.
But why are they so reckless in their actions?
From Zou Yun's words, it seems they genuinely know nothing about the background of this sect or where they are actually mining Blood Essence.
"Hehe, Little Su, remember, to run a long-term business, do not dig too deep. Gather some intelligence to ensure your safety.
Once you touch on someone else's secrets, the business won't last."
Zou Yun seemed to understand Su Yu's thoughts, patting Su Yu on the shoulder, speaking earnestly.
"We are sellers, so just focus on selling the goods."
Don't think of getting rich overnight.
"Since Old Kuang isn't around, let's wait for him to return, then we'll have a celebration."
Zou Yun asked Songzi to arrange a room for Su Yu.
...
"Blood Essence..."
It's not that Su Yu has a huge demand for Blood Essence, but more about his interest in Blood Essence itself.
It is a crystal of Bloodline Power, capable of enhancing Bloodline Power.
This is what Su Yu is most curious about.
"Elder Yi, what do you think is missing in my theoretical qi blood soul ring?"
Su Yu condensed a circle outside his body, the circle of blood-red Qi and Blood Power shone, vividly simulating a Soul Ring, yet it was just for show and not functional.
"Spirit."
Elder Yi was very certain.
The Soul Ring represents the solidification of Soul Skills, an interface for Soul Masters to the rules.
The unique rules of Douluo Continent allow this interface to be realized in the form of a contracted Soul Ring solidified with spirituality.
Similarly, if Qi and Blood Power intends to condense into a Qi Blood Soul Ring with Soul Ring characteristics, it cannot escape the construction of spirituality.
Su Yu sighed.
From a theoretical perspective, condensing a Qi Blood Soul Ring is not that simple.
At the very least, it must involve the level of rules to have the opportunity to construct with spirituality.
"Forget it, let's set aside the Qi Blood Soul Ring for now."
Su Yu did not invest too much hope in this.
He mobilized Qi and Blood Power, washing through his body.
The bones gleamed with dense patterns.
The bones of Su Yu faintly glowed, and if one closed their eyes and carefully sensed Su Yu, they would feel a clear skeleton of energy glowing within his body.
Tiandou City is established on the edge of Sunset Forest.
While cultivating daily, Su Yu also probed Zou Yun about the basic situation inside Sunset Forest.
"The types of Soul Beasts inside Sunset Forest are not as varied as the legendary Xingdou Great Forest.
But for us, it's already sufficient.
After all, it's also a large habitat of Soul Beasts, with a complete ecosystem capable of supplying Soul Beasts of all kinds.
What's actually lacking are powerful Soul Beasts over ten thousand years old."
In Sunset Forest, all kinds of Soul Beasts certainly exist, but few of these beasts grow up.
"In fact, ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts are extremely rare in Sunset Forest, reportedly because the environment in the core area of Sunset Forest is too harsh.
With vast areas of poisonous miasma, even ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts cannot survive.
Original ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts were forced to the outskirts, then hunted, and without the core area, wandering Soul Beasts at the outskirts rarely had the chance to advance to ten-thousand-years.
Over time, it became the way it is now."
