"Focus on improving Dao Skills instead; this way, both the Magic and the power of Magical Treasures can be enhanced, and the level of the Supre Dragon Transformation Bone can be upgraded simultaneously—killing two birds with one stone."
Having made up his mind, Su Yu decisively spent 345 million cultivation points and 750 points of Dao practice to progressively upgrade the Cave Profound Spiritual Inspiration Scripture from level seventy to level eighty.
Remaining are 111 million cultivation points and 4312 points of Dao practice.
Cave Profound Spiritual Inspiration Scripture Level Eighty: Qi and Blood 8000, Mana 16000, Magic Power 8000, Mana recovery 32 points/second.
With the Qi Refining Heart Skill upgraded to level eighty, the Supre Dragon Transformation Immortal Bone also followed suit to level eighty, Qi and Blood 800,000, Mana 80,000, Constitution 8000, Strength 8000.
"Oh my, my Mana has exceeded 100,000, and both Constitution and Strength have surpassed 10,000."
Unconsciously, his Constitution had already beco comparable to those BOSS-level monstrous creatures.
Stretching out his hand to grasp the air, the trendous power caused the air to crackle. Su Yu grinned:
"With any weapon I casually use, I might convincingly pose as a Body Cultivator!"
Generally, it’s not easy for a Body Cultivator to stack Constitution and Strength over 10,000 before transcending tribulations.
While such a strong Constitution and Strength often serve no practical use, possessing them greatly enhances error tolerance. Even if a Magical Treasure is broken, he can hold out for a long ti using his flesh alone.
Closing the panel, Su Yu felt satisfaction.
Then he opened the regional channel, finding the online trading platform of a comrce association he’d previously seen, directly searching "Immortal’s Manual."
The search returned empty—none available.
"Indeed, after several months, it must have been sold."
Su Yu felt a bit disappointed but soon shook his head and energetically searched another comrce association.
As the trade center of Ten Thousand Stars Island Sea Area, Ten Thousand Stars City gathered nurous rchants. Famous large comrce associations would have branches here, and even many super comrce associations that spanned the entire human civilization would set up divisions.
With so many super or large comrce associations, he couldn’t believe there’s only one offering Immortal’s Manual.
He searched one by one according to renowned comrce associations on Feixing Island, quickly discovering during the third search that one was selling Immortal’s Manual—and not just one.
However, although available, the price was outrageous: 20,000 gold per copy, 5,000 gold more than the 15,000 seen earlier.
"Damn!"
"Why is it so expensive?"
Su Yu checked his current wealth, realizing he was far short of gathering such a sum.
"With 20,000 gold, I could buy an Tier Eight Treasure."
He felt it wasn’t worth it, his interest in Immortal’s Manual diminished by the absurd price.
"Forget it!"
He shook his head, turning his gaze to casually browse other items, primarily high-level Magical Treasures or equivalent treasures.
"There really are a lot of good things!"
Not surprisingly for large comrce associations, apart from the Immortal’s Manual, there were many treasures of similar level.
"Pure Yang Scripture!"
Su Yu’s eyebrow raised, eyes settling on the introduction of this Cultivation Skill—it was a refined Heart Skill inheritance, divided into two volus. The first contained Qi Refining Heart Skill; the second included various auxiliary Magic, Thunder Skill, Forbidden Skill, along with two thods for refining high-level Magical Treasures: Pure Yang Spiritual Sword (Tier Seven), Pure Yang Treasure Cauldron (Tier Eight).
"What a great thing!"
Yet upon seeing the price, it was as high as 150,000 gold.
Nevertheless, Su Yu did not find it expensive; he considered it worthwhile.
Because this was a complete inheritance, comprising Heart Skill, Thunder Skill, Forbidden Skill, nurous Secret Skills, and thods for corresponding Magical Treasure refinent—all at a refined level; collectively it was absolutely valued at this price.
"Hmm? They are selling this too?"
Below the Pure Professional Scripture, he discovered sothing extrely unexpected on sale.
Sword Palace Command Talisman: With it, one can go to the overseas Sword Palace to take the Sword Palace examination, priced at 10,000 gold.
"My second brother said this thing is very rare!"
But truth be told, valued at 10,000 gold, it’s indeed rare—most players can’t obtain it.
Moreover, in Feixing Island as an overseas trade center, anything exists, regardless of rarity.
Su Yu didn’t dwell on this, continuing his browsing.
Shortly after, he browsed to the official website of Heaven-Reaching Comrce Association, a super comrce association, with a notification popping up upon opening—detailing mbership policy.
In simple terms, this comrce association operates on a mbership basis, offering their best items exclusively to mbers.
Joining as a mber is straightforward and doesn’t require mbership fees; simply verify one’s identity to see if one ets the criteria.
Either be a leader or official within a faction, or possess strong personal strength—essentially to check one’s financial capacity, selecting quality clients.
Verification is handled offline, requiring visiting Heaven-Reaching Comrce Association’s local branches for personal confirmation.
Considering that his future needs would demand increasingly higher-quality items, a super comrce association seed a good approach; thus, he personally visited Heaven-Reaching Comrce Association’s premises in Feixing City—a sprawling estate spanning hundreds of thousands of square ters.
Just as he landed at the entrance, he saw Luo Qingchan being escorted by a middle-aged man and a woman, coming out. Seeing Su Yu, she paused, thinking he ca specifically to pick her up, feeling sowhat odd.
Su Yu noticed her pause, realizing her misunderstanding by her expression, then explained: :
"I’m here to set up a mbership with Heaven-Reaching Comrce Association and need to verify offline."
The middle-aged man promptly smiled and asked:
"Miss Qingchan, is this your friend?"
Luo Qingchan nodded:
"My friend, an official disciple of Xuanzhen Immortal Sect, extraordinarily gifted!"
The man smiled, saying:
"Since Miss Qingchan has vouched for him, verification won’t be necessary."
He took out a crystal card from his chest and handed it to Su Yu with both hands:
"I am Lin Qi, the business manager of the Heaven-Reaching Comrce Association at the Feixing Island branch. Please take care of ."
"I’ll need Mr. Lin’s assistance in the future as well."
Su Yu gladly accepted it without any pretense.
"This is a mbership card, with your mbership number on it. You can log onto our association’s official website later, upload your information, and you’ll be able to access the mber transaction platform. Specific mbership details will be sent to you once you beco a mber, and also...."
Lin Qi handed over another card embossed with gold:
"In ten days, our association will hold an auction. We welco all mbers to attend!"
"An auction, I’m very interested."
However, Su Yu suddenly thought of whether the expensive Immortal’s Manual would be at the auction.
"It’s possible!"
Lin Qi spoke a few more words with Luo Qingchan, and the two bid farewell and left.
On the Jade Sinking Ship, Su Yu reopened the transaction platform built into the Feixing Island regional channel, found the official website of the Heaven-Reaching Comrce Association, and followed the instructions on the card to input and submit his information.
About five minutes later, he received a ssage that the review had been approved, and then saw that the official website mber area was unlocked.
He imdiately opened the mber area, and a ssage popped up; upon closer inspection, it was the mber introduction information.
It’s similar to all the other comrce association mbers, where mbers are divided into four tiers: Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow. Each tier has one to five stars, with one star being the lowest and five stars being the highest. As a new mber, he’s naturally ranked as a one-star Yellow mber.
The mbership level doesn’t offer discounts, but higher-tier mbers have many special benefits, such as overdrafts or loans when shopping, and accumulating enough points from transactions to exchange for certain perks, and so on.
Su Yu glanced briefly before closing the information to focus on browsing the mber products.
With just a quick look, he discerned the difference between mber products and non-mber products.
The key lies in quality.
Both mber and non-mber areas have a plethora of items available for sale, encompassing almost everything, but mber products are of higher quality.
For example, the mber area also has lower-tier magical treasures, such as Tier Four and Five flying swords.
Among them, non-mber offerings are of ordinary quality, while those in the mber area are mostly fine or even exquisite.
He browsed casually and saw a pair of Tier Five exquisite flying swords, which are extrely rare dual-blade fused flying swords.
"This is indeed a major comrce association!"
Beside him, Luo Qingchan, who was browsing sothing, looked up upon hearing his exclamation and said:
"The Heaven-Reaching Comrce Association’s influence spans the entire human civilization, from the major Divine Land island to surrounding areas. In the context of human civilization, Blue Mountain Island is considered only mid-to-low level, but the exchange of goods within the association ensures that you can get almost anything you can think of."
Su Yu curiously asked:
"Are there any Tier Ten Supre Treasures?"
"There are!"
"Then why haven’t I seen them?"
"They generally aren’t displayed openly."
"Then how do you purchase them?"
"Typically, they are only sold to powerful allies of the association, and you need to obtain ten Heaven-Reaching Orders to have a purchasing opportunity."
"What’s a Heaven-Reaching Order?"
"Sotis, the Heaven-Reaching Comrce Association encounters major troubles that are difficult to handle. At such tis, mbers are widely invited to help. If you can assist the association in resolving this big trouble, you’ll earn one Heaven-Reaching Order."
"Accumulating ten Heaven-Reaching Orders, equivalent to helping the association ten tis with major tasks, qualifies you to purchase Tier Ten Supre Treasures."
"Of course, that’s assuming the association has a Tier Ten Supre Treasure."
"Tier Ten Supre Treasures are extrely rare, and even with the association’s vast resources, they cannot guarantee frequent acquisitions."
"Well, okay!"
Su Yu shrugged, not dwelling on this point, and turned back to continue browsing.
A short while later, his eyes lit up with surprise:
"There’s actually this!"
Moonlight Condensed Dew recipe: A seven-grade fine wine brewed using Ten Thousand Year Moon Orchid and Ten Thousand Years Cold Pond Water infused with Moonlight Essence; it can suppress fire toxins and calm heart demons.

He glanced at the price of the two wine recipes, both costing 300 gold.
Without hesitation, he placed an order and bought one of each.
In less than ten minutes, the items were delivered, and he imdiately learned the recipes.
Regardless of whether the materials are complete or not, learning the recipe cos first.
Once the Red Tide passes, he plans to purchase the materials for brewing.
"The Red Tide is here!"
A loud shout from soone jolted Su Yu and Luo Qingchan, interrupting their browsing. The two exchanged a glance and activated the Jade Sinking Ship to ascend into the sky, then they saw the overwhelming Red Tide surging from afar on Feixing Island.
