Supreme Warrior in the City Chapter 2295 2295: Spiritual Source

Su Yang furrowed his brows: "So, you're saying that if they start running around wildly, they might discover , and then I'll be found out by them?"

"Absolutely." Long Qiu replied.

Su Yang pondered for a mont: "I need a more appropriate thod. Is there a better way to completely avoid these Holy Beasts?"

"A better way?" Long Qiu widened his eyes: "Brother, this... what better way could there be? Those Holy Beasts are alive, not dead. How could you completely avoid them? If they suddenly go crazy and decide to run around, there's nothing anyone can do. This kind of situation, it's better safe than sorry!"

Su Yang: "What's the probability of these accidents occurring?"

"Uh..." Long Qiu thought carefully for a while, shook his head and said: "Very small, extrely small. Holy Beasts generally don't run around randomly. Because they have to guard their own Spiritual Sources. Unless it's absolutely necessary, they won't leave recklessly. Once soone steals their Spiritual Source, that's the end!"

"Spiritual Source?" Su Yang asked, surprised: "What is it exactly?"

"It's the Source of Spiritual Energy." Long Qiu looked at Su Yang and said: "When you reach the Saint Level, you inevitably have it; it's the Source of Spiritual Energy that Saint Level cultivators practice with. Only by possessing a Spiritual Source can you cultivate and advance further to beco a Saint Venerable or the like."

Su Yang's heart stirred, the Heavenly Destiny Treasure Book did not ntion the Spiritual Source. He always thought that Dark Level cultivation only required absorbing Xuan-level Spiritual Energy. But now it seems Xuan-level Spiritual Energy isn't that simple, it needs a Spiritual Source?

"Source of Spiritual Energy? How is this thing created?" Su Yang asked.

"Huh?" Long Qiu paused for a mont, looking at Su Yang as if he were a fool: "The Source of Spiritual Energy, you don't know? It's the origin of Spiritual Energy generation? This stuff is innate. There's a Source of Spiritual Energy within your Nine Realms, isn't there?"

"Does the Nine Realms have one?" Su Yang asked, shocked; he had not known about this.

"Of course it does, without a Source of Spiritual Energy, could the Nine Realms give birth to life?" Long Qiu said: "The planet you took to before, used by Beast Tars to imprison Demon Beasts, doesn't have a Source of Spiritual Energy. Or rather, the Source of Spiritual Energy on that planet was taken away; thus, the planet can no longer generate life. But your Nine Realms have a Source of Spiritual Energy, allowing for life to erge and supply your cultivation. Otherwise, how could you exist as you are now?"

Su Yang was dumbfounded; this was the first ti he had learned of such things.

"What is the Source of Spiritual Energy in the Nine Realms like?" Su Yang asked.

"You're asking about this, how should I know?" Long Qiu said: "You're mbers of the Nine Realms, if you yourself don't know what the Source of Spiritual Energy is like, how would anyone else know?"

"But where is this Source of Spiritual Energy?" Su Yang asked: "We've never known about this thing before, nor do we know where the Source of Spiritual Energy is. Besides, we haven't seen the Source of Spiritual Energy yet continue to cultivate as usual. Are you mistaken?"

"Mistaken about what!" Long Qiu responded: "You can certainly cultivate without seeing the Source of Spiritual Energy because its energy continuously spreads out to the Nine Worlds. By absorbing this energy, you can cultivate; it's just a slower process."

"But the Spiritual Source held by Holy Beasts is different. Holy Beasts use Secret Techniques to block the Spiritual Source, concentrating its energy for personal absorption. In this way, they can maximize the absorption of Spiritual Source energy, rapidly enhancing their strength. So, people of the Nine Realms might not need to know where the Spiritual Source is to cultivate. But if a Holy Beast can't access a Spiritual Source, it basically can't cultivate; no Holy Beast would let its Spiritual Source's energy leak out for others to use!"

Upon hearing this, a sharp look flashed in Su Yang's eyes: "So, if I can obtain a Spiritual Source, I could continue cultivating?"

"While that sounds feasible, where could you seize a Spiritual Source?" Long Qiu replied: "Don't get any ideas about the Nine Realms' Spiritual Source; it can no longer support your cultivation. You need to obtain a Dark Level Spiritual Source to continue. However, Dark Level Spiritual Sources are scarce, many Holy Beasts don't have one themselves. If you attempt to seize it, you'll certainly clash with Holy Beasts, and what will you do if you provoke a Saint Venerable?"

Admittedly, Long Qiu had beco very submissive now, considering matters from Su Yang's perspective.

But there was no other choice. Following Su Yang closely, he could end Long Qiu's life with ease. Should Long Qiu conceal anything and Su Yang discovered it, Long Qiu would be dead for sure.

Su Yang fell silent; this matter was indeed challenging. To seize a Spiritual Source, he must conflict with Holy Beasts. But such conflict risks attracting a Saint Venerable, which is the current major concern in the Nine Realms.

But without a Spiritual Source, they can't continue cultivating or protecting the Nine Realms.

After contemplating for a lengthy while, Su Yang looked at Long Qiu: "Has there ever been an incident of a Holy Beast's Spiritual Source being taken before?"

"There has been." Long Qiu accurately perceived Su Yang's intent and imdiately responded: "But during those tis, it was other Holy Beasts seizing from Holy Beasts. Conflicts between Holy Beasts do not attract Saint Venerables and pose no major issues. But as you are not a Demon Beast, doing such a thing could yield unpredictable results!"

"So, if it's a Holy Beast seizing a Spiritual Source, there wouldn't be any issues?" Su Yang asked.

"Exactly!" Long Qiu nodded.

Slowly nodding, Su Yang then asked after a pause: "What if I train a Holy Beast to seize a Spiritual Source?"

"Uh?" Long Qiu hesitated for a mont: "Tr…train a Holy Beast!?"

"Is it not possible?" Su Yang queried.

"Well…it's not impossible…" Long Qiu pondered for a while: "The issue is, it's not easy to train a Holy Beast. Moreover, can the Holy Beast you train really seize a Spiritual Source? Holy Beasts capable of holding a Spiritual Source have significant strength. If the trained Holy Beast isn't strong enough, wouldn't it get killed instead? What's the point of seizing then?"

"What if I intervene and assist?" Su Yang asked.

"You're not a Holy Beast; if you intervene and a Saint Venerable discovers it, that'd be a disaster!" Long Qiu retorted imdiately.

"What if I act under my current identity?" Su Yang shook the whip in his hand.
