Two Realms Shuttle Gate: Don't Call Me a Demon! Chapter 351

Chapter 351: Chapter 246: Holy Lotus Evolution (First Update)_2

“I'm broke.”

Su Jie couldn't help but laugh and cry; after all, the Thousand-Handed Centipede was a Mid Grade Five Refinement poisonous insect.

The total wealth of spirit stones and Blood Marrow Crystals Su Jie owned could hardly strengthen it by much.

The Thousand-Handed Centipede coiled around Su Jie's arm as he checked the savings of spirit stones in his storage bag, which still had over a hundred thousand, with the majority being the hundred thousand given by Taoist Qiu last time.

After tapping the Thousand-Handed Centipede's forehead, Su Jie helplessly said, “I'll upgrade you after I've made some money, let's forget about it for today.”

Having said this, Su Jie's gaze turned to the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus.

This exotic treasure had completely changed its appearance; previously, it had only small cotyledons, resembling the shape of bean sprouts.

The Nine-grade Sacred Lotus had now grown to twenty centimeters tall, and the cotyledons were fully developed into three lotus leaves.

Overall, the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus stood tall, with the spiritual energy from the Five Elements Spiritual Soil below condensing into a mist, and the nearby White Bone Tree converting the spiritual power into mist that settled on the lotus leaves as droplets.

The droplets shone with a crystal clear brilliance, resembling pearls embedded in the verdant leaves, emitting a soft luster and a mouth-watering fragrance.

This exotic treasure, the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus, greatly benefited from absorbing the phenomena of heaven and earth, tremendously promoting its growth.

“Three lotus leaves; it has developed to the first stage,”

Su Jie was thrilled and began to examine it eagerly.

After obtaining the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus, Su Jie had specially researched the scriptures about this exotic treasure in the library of Ghost Ridge Palace.

Once the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus grows three leaves, it can already be used.

Of course, it isn't meant to be eaten. The mature entity has nine leaves and blossoms with buds, only at full bloom it reaches completion.

Now at only the first stage, Su Jie followed the scriptures he had read before, performed the spell, and lightly shouted, “Control!”

The Nine-grade Sacred Lotus floated up and began to spin around Su Jie.

This exotic treasure, which Su Jie had often used to imprint with his own aura and repeatedly nurtured before, was already semi-recognized by him, allowing Su Jie to control it with ease.

“Xiao Qian, Purple Light Ray.”

Su Jie waved to the Thousand-Handed Centipede.

Understanding the cue, the Thousand-Handed Centipede's faceplate split open, launching terrifying beams of purple light.

The leaves of the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus glowed faintly, emitting a blue-dark light membrane that shielded against the purple rays.

Boom!

The purple rays only caused ripples on the blue-dark light membrane and were easily defended against.

Han Ruyan, upon seeing this scene, suddenly raised her left hand, allowing curse power to spread.

Similarly, the blue-dark light membrane shielded Su Jie, nullifying the invisible curse power and preventing it from affecting him.

This is the purpose of the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus; it's considered a first-class defensive treasure.

Now at only its initial stage, its defensive power is still limited, but with each additional leaf it grows, its defensive capabilities will increase substantially.

Once it reaches its complete form, with nine leaves and flowering, if a cultivator can fully refine it,

then the defensive power of the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus will be exaggerated to an extremely astonishing extent, among other marvelous effects.

The initial destruction of the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus was mainly because it had no master at the time, no one to refine it and spontaneously utilize its defensive abilities, as plants do not have much self-defense consciousness.

Su Jie then had Han Ruyan and the Thousand-Handed Centipede increase their efforts to test the current defensive limits of the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus.

Under the full effort of the Thousand-Handed Centipede, the defense was eventually breached, and some of Han Ruyan's curses began to penetrate as well, but not all could be entirely blocked.

Yet even so, Su Jie couldn't help but smile at the corners of his mouth.

The current defensive power of the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus was already extremely exaggerated, considering the attackers were a Mid Grade Five Refinement poisonous insect and a Sixth Grade Wedding Dress Ghost.

Even the Secret Realm could not ignore their attacks, yet the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus could reduce their attacks by a great deal under their full strength.

“The only pity is that this third-grade state Sacred Lotus cannot be used for a long duration,”

Su Jie observed the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus, which appeared somewhat wilted, its previously upright stance now curving downwards.

Because it was not in its complete form, using it for defense would undoubtedly consume a great deal of its nutrients and slow down its growth rate. If it were to be damaged, that would be even more painful for anyone to endure.

Su Jie placed the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus under his feet. As his thoughts moved, the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus sprinkled around itself a holy and beautiful starlight, and the sounds of heaven and earth flowed automatically.

Susu!

The leaves of the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus swayed, spilling starlight, accompanied by thousands of auspicious Purple Mist spirits.

The spiritual power within Su Jie's body circulated, increasing the speed of absorbing the spiritual energy from the surroundings and making it easier to understand various cultivation practices.

Beyond providing defense, the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus also acted as a cultivation accelerator, which was the second ability of the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus.

Initially, Su Jie had merely eaten a lotus seed of the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus and had improved his physical constitution, obtained the Purple Cloud Thunder Body, and gained the divine skills of the Purple Cloud Heavenly Thunder.

This showed just how powerful the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus was in aiding others with enlightenment and cultivation.

Su Jie was still satisfied with the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus at its Third Grade Lotus Leaf stage because in a life-threatening crisis, using the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus could undoubtedly compensate for Su Jie's defensive shortcomings.

After storing the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus, Su Jie got up, pushed open the door of the seclusion room, and stepped outside.

Outside the mansion, a large number of disciples had already gathered.

The celestial phenomenon caused by Su Jie's breakthrough was something these disciples were seeing for the first time; they had run over out of curiosity.

As the door was pushed open and Su Jie appeared, the crowd of disciples felt as if they were looking directly into the radiance of the sun. A dazzling golden light spread around Su Jie, resembling a deity from ancient times, possessing an extraordinary aura.

Some of the disciples who met Su Jie's gaze could feel the vigorous vitality of Su Jie's body, like that of a towering ancient tree, and vaguely, the grand sounds of the Dao were transmitted, mysterious and unfathomable.

This was the result of Su Jie still being in resonance with the Dao after the blessing of Heavenly Dao, his body's aura not yet fully dissipated, still resonating with the Dao, and not all qi had been retracted.

On seeing Su Jie's aura, far surpassing the Yunling Realm, the crowd of disciples knew that Su Jie had successfully made a breakthrough.

“Congratulations, Elder Su, on advancing to the Secret Realm.”

Unified shouts echoed; Su Jie's status was promoted from Brother Su to Elder Su by everyone present.

The title of Elder within the Ghost Ridge Palace was highly revered, something numerous disciples of the Ghost Ridge Palace dream of achieving.

Su Jie's promotion undoubtedly added a powerful force in the moment the Sect was waging a war.

“I have not let your expectations down; today, I, Su Jie, have advanced to the Secret Realm.”

Su Jie bowed to the crowd around him, not looking down on other disciples just because he had advanced to the Secret Realm.

“Elder Su!”

In the crowd, Chen Yun and Wu Bin were also present, wearing proud smiles on their faces after Su Jie's advancement.

“There's no need to be so formal, just call me as you used to. Calling me 'Elder' makes me feel as if I am seventy or eighty years old. Let's have a drink together tonight.”

Su Jie patted Chen Yun and Wu Bin on the shoulders.

“Yes, Brother Su, may you continue to ascend to greater heights in the future.”

Wu Bin looked at Su Jie, feeling immensely moved in his heart.

When he first met Su Jie, the latter was just an Outer Disciple. Back then, Wu Bin thought that Su Jie's potential was merely to advance to being an inner disciple.

However, Su Jie's rise far exceeded his expectations. He watched step by step as Su Jie grew stronger, from advancing to an inner disciple to becoming the number one disciple, and now even advancing to the Secret Realm, much further than he had imagined.

“Mr. Su, you will certainly achieve great things in Ghost Ridge Palace in the future.”

Chen Yun's face was quite excited; she was not yet an inner disciple, just at the Fifth Level of the Yunling Realm.

But knowing someone like Su Jie, a young and boundlessly promising Elder of the Secret Realm, even inner disciples wouldn't dare to provoke her.

“I hope your good words come true.”

Su Jie chuckled, seeing the admiration and awe in the eyes of the surrounding disciples, a surge of ambition unavoidably arose in his heart.

Having been in Ghost Ridge Palace for nearly three years, he had finally taken the most solid step, achieving the cultivation of the Secret Realm.

Soon, the news about Su Jie's advancement to the Secret Realm and the induced celestial phenomenon spread far and wide.
