Today's First Release: Chapter 052!
……
Ughh, blch!
On a stretch of sandy beach, Yu Le was coughing up bitter bile. He was extremely fortunate not to have been buried in the vast sea, nor did he become a meal for that gigantic sea turtle.
Buffeted by the raging waves, he had been washed ashore onto a nearby beach.
Rubbing his dizzy head, he stood up. Not far away lay his fishing boat, which had run aground just like him, alongside...
A glowing orb entangled by the Fulong fishing line.
"Could it be..." Yu Le stood up, his heart pounding with excitement.
As the saying goes, those who survive a great disaster are bound to enjoy later fortune. That giant sea turtle was immensely powerful; judging by Yu Le's estimation, even on solid ground, he might not be a match for it.
Then this glowing orb...
When Yu Le reached out and touched the glowing orb floating in mid-air, a system prompt rang in his ear.
[Ding! You have fished up one of the Yellow-tier Fishing Ground's Sea-Suppressing Beasts—Yellow-tier Ninth-Grade World Turtle. Through the Sea-Suppressing Beast's Realm-Breaching, you can obtain the optimal reward for the corresponding fishing ground, and you may direct the realm-breaching according to your own needs.]
Eh? Oh!
Sea-Suppressing Beast? Optimal reward? Realm-breaching direction?
Through communicating with the system, Yu Le quickly grasped the meaning of these unfamiliar terms.
The so-called Sea-Suppressing Beast refers to the highest-ranked yet special World Fish within a fishing ground. (Sea turtles count as fish, right~)
Yes, this was the characteristic of a Sea-Suppressing Beast: it possesses an appearance and species distinct from ordinary World Fish.
It could be a sea turtle, or it could be other marine life.
The optimal reward was easy to understand. The rewards brought by a Sea-Suppressing Beast after realm-breaching would definitely be the absolute best the Yellow-tier fishing ground had to offer—hence the term "optimal."
If one added realm-breaching direction on top of that, things would become extraordinary.
Realm-breaching direction is divided into two types: the first is World Direction, meaning Yu Le can freely choose a world he is familiar with; the second is Reward Direction, which allows him to categorize and specify his needs.
Only one of the two directions can be chosen. If World Direction is chosen, the type of reward remains uncertain.
Therefore, after considering his own needs, Yu Le chose Reward Direction.
Combined with the optimal reward, this approach could maximize his benefits!

So what exactly did he need?
"I want everything! But for now, what I need most should be... cultivation techniques!"
Whether it was cultivation for the Boulder Realm or the upcoming Rime-Bone Realm, both required corresponding cultivation methods. What Yu Le was practicing for the time being was merely the ubiquitous, dime-a-dozen Boulder Realm Basic Body-Forging Technique.
Although practitioners who trained in the Boulder Realm Basic Body-Forging Technique could theoretically reach the nine-stone strength of Great Completion in the Boulder Realm, the efficiency was much lower.
This was the explanation given by Geng Xiao and the others. They had all purchased better Boulder Realm cultivation techniques to accelerate their progress in the realm.
As for Yu Le, after his secondary awakening of the Fulong Fishing Rod, his physical strength had been pushed to the seventh grade of the Boulder Realm. Then, by a stroke of misfortune and miscalculation, he had ingested that bottle of special substance left behind by Feng Jiujiao, catapulting him to the ninth grade of the Boulder Realm like a seedling pulled up to grow faster.
He seemed to be just a hair's breadth away from the Great Consummation of the Boulder Realm.
Even without cultivating any techniques, the beast milk he had drunk not long ago would imperceptibly push his physical fitness to its limit.
Therefore, what Yu Le wanted now was a cultivation technique to step into the Rime-Bone Realm.
Could it succeed?
With the realm-breaching direction selected, the glowing orb guided the tangled fishing line to begin breaching the realm.
[Ding! Realm-breaching into the novel world: The Return of the Condor Heroes — Western Regions Tantric Sect]
A familiar novel world, an unfamiliar place...
The fishhook attached to the fishing line dropped into a temple complex featuring Western Regions architecture. When it returned, an extra book was perched upon it.
Accompanying this was an angry roar from deep within the temple.
"Which petty thief dares to steal the monks' divine art!"
Regardless of the other party's shouting and cursing, the book drifted further and further away until it landed right in Yu Le's hands.
"The Condor world, Western Regions monks... Who was that?"
[Ding! You have obtained a Heaven-tier cultivation technique fragment—the first four levels of the Dragon-Elephant般若 Sutra from the novel world: The Return of the Condor Heroes.]
Yu Le's eyes lit up: "Could that little monk just now be none other than the ultimate villain of the Condor series, King Golden Wheel?"
The ten-tier Dragon-Elephant般若 Sutra possessed a combat prowess that rivaled the Old Five Greats.
Its sheer strength left Zhou Botong, the chief of the New Five Greats, at a complete loss, and it fought Qiu Qianren—the foremost expert under the Old Five Greats—for three days and three nights (revised to a day and a night of mobile combat), ultimately leaving him mortally wounded.
Among the powerhouse figures appearing in the Condor world, he was a super expert capable of securing a top-five or top-four spot.
His cultivation technique...

This time, it was no longer a physical object, but instead transformed into streaks of light that converged into Yu Le's mind.
Without checking the specific details of the *Dragon-Elephant般若 Sutra* first, Yu Le opened his eyes wide in shock.
"The... the original version of the *Dragon-Elephant般若 Sutra*?"
It was no wonder Yu Le was so shaken. Previously, when Geng Xiao and Han Yuoru presented cultivation techniques and martial arts skills, they had mentioned that those were all rubbings.
Whether it was cultivation techniques or martial arts skills, in this world, only the creator mastered the original version, which was equivalent to holding the exclusive right to make rubbings.
Every kind of cultivation technique and martial art was independently created by people of the present era, belonging to founders who established their own sects.
People of this sort, even if they only created a Yellow-tier technique or martial skill, could rake in a fortune just by selling rubbings.
To mention nothing else, take the ubiquitous basic body-forging technique among the Boulder Realm body-forging methods; it was created by a predecessor who had conducted profound research into Boulder Realm cultivation.
It was a body-forging technique suited for babies of all constitutions, focusing primarily on a well-rounded education.
Relying on the sale of rubbings for this basic body-forging technique, it was said that that mighty figure and his family had already become a towering presence.
A set of original cultivation techniques/martial arts represented infinite wealth. Basic ones that were easy to rubbings could be endlessly copied and sold.
More profound ones with restrictions on cultivation could also be kept as family heirlooms or even unexpressed secrets.
After all, once certain martial arts or techniques became popularized, it was equivalent to teaching one's opponents one's own methods. If they eventually researched a way to restrain them, the outcome would be less than ideal.
For instance, the Ice-Soul Palm—the unique martial art of the Han family that Han Yuoru relied upon!
All in all, the value of an original cultivation technique or martial art was immeasurable.
And now, the *Dragon-Elephant般若 Sutra* Yu Le had obtained from the Condor world had become his own original technique.
If he could make rubbings of it, even as a fragmentary text...
Plans began to churn in his mind.
"Calm down, calm down~"
Yu Le took a few deep breaths, inwardly marveling that it truly lived up to being a reward corresponding to a Sea-Suppressing Beast—it was absolutely worthy of the title of optimal reward!
Sitting cross-legged, Yu Le began to comprehend this set of techniques.
After gaining a preliminary understanding, Yu Le's expression turned somewhat sluggish, tinged with a hint of confusion.
"Isn't the upper limit of the Boulder Realm nine-stone strength?"
