Tribulation of Myriad Races

Su Yu looked at the divines and asked, “Are the divines making a bid? This is the remains of a divine skywing. If you’re not making a bid, it will go to the devils.”

After a short pause, he asked, “How about the immortals and dragons?”

In truth, he would much prefer selling the corpse to the immortals. Then again, it wasn’t a bad idea to not sell to them. They were the official allies of humanity. Things could get troublesome if he scammed them.

Meanwhile, it would be perfectly fine for him to scam the divines or the devils instead. They were already enemies of humanity. It also wasn’t a good idea to sell to the dragons. The dragons were still considered neutral. The scam might change this.

In the end, the perfect targets would still be the divines and devils. After thinking about it, Su Yu concluded that things were progressing in an acceptable manner. It was now up to the divines whether they wanted to raise their bid or not.

He would naturally be happy to see the divines raise the bid. That way, he could earn more without worrying about a discount.

The divines continued discussing among themselves. After a short moment, Zhan Wushuang said, “2,300 strands.”

Dawo sighed and said nothing. This time, the silence persisted for a long time.

Finally, the smiling mayor said, “If there are no new bids, let’s end the auction.”

He was very pleased. After all, he would earn a lot from this as well. This was a massive amount of wealth even for him. To get seven hundred strands the normal way, he would need to spend around seven hundred years in the boundless space.

And that wasn’t even possible for him as it was impossible for him to leave the city for such a long period of time. The auction was coming to an end. Nobody offered a higher bid.

With a smile, Su Yu announced, “In that case, the corpse will go to the divines. Please complete the payment on the spot. Naturally, the corpse will go to the devils if the divines fail to pay. And if the devils fail to pay as well, it will go to the immortals…”

His gaze landed on Zhan Wushuang. With a slight frown, Zhan Wushuang said, “We are naturally capable of paying.”

He inhaled deeply and said, “Five hundred strands of heavenearth profound light, three hundred drops of sunmoon profound yellow liquid, one hundred hallow source qi fruits, ten elemental spirit fruits for each of the five elements…”

The eyes of the five elemental expert sparkled upon hearing that, but soon, the light in his eyes dimmed again. Nevertheless, he still gave it a try, “Are you willing to sell the elemental spirit fruits to the five elemental race? We’re willing to pay ten strands of heavenearth profound light for each fruit…”

Similar to how the dragonblood fruits were useful to the dragons, the elemental spirit fruits were very beneficial for the qi transformation of the five elemental race. Unfortunately, such fruits were so rare not even the five elemental race had any.

These fruits were extremely valuable. Since Zhan Wushuang was offering ten elemental spirit fruits of each element, he would use a total of fifty fruits for the payment. The value of these fifty fruits was almost equivalent to five hundred strands of heavenearth profound light.

The three hundred drops of sunmoon profound yellow liquid were worth nine hundred strands. The hallow source qi fruit was a valuable treasure for qi transformation as well. It was worth three strands per fruit. The hundred fruits he offered were equal to three hundred strands in value.

Altogether, these treasures were worth 2,200 strands.

The divines also tried to offer five earth weapons worth a hundred strands, but Su Yu rejected that, “I don’t accept weapons.”

What nonsense. He was a weapon specialist. He knew very well how easily weapons could be used as trackers. There was no way he was going to accept weapons.

Zhan Wushuang did not argue and offered something else instead, “In that case, I’ll add fifty heavenblood fruits instead.”

Su Yu had no idea what those fruits were good for. Fortunately, someone provided an explanation before he asked anything. The person from the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion said, “Heavenblood fruit, good for strengthening one’s vitality. When one’s body is growing, one’s vitality might not be able to keep up with the growth. That will result in an imbalance, resulting in an inability to fully make use of one’s strength. These fruits are very useful for geniuses. The fifty fruits offered are worth a hundred strands of heavenearth profound light.”

Su Yu spoke in a straightforward manner, “That is agreeable. But you need to show me all those things first…”

Zhan Wushuang said, “No. You need to hand the things over first.”

Su Yu rolled his eyes, “How strong am I? How strong are you guys?”

With a wave of his hand, he took everything back into his storage ring and said, “With so many Sunmoons here, I won’t be able to run. Hand over the payment first and I’ll hand over the storage ring.”

Zhan Wushuang frowned. After some hesitation, he said, “I need to take a look at the complete breathing technique first.”

Su Yu frowned as well. He said, “Fine. But you need to give me half the payment first. We can complete the transaction after confirming that nothing is wrong.”

“Alright.”

An agreement was reached. Zhan Wushuang tossed a storage ring out while Su Yu tossed a jade talisman over. The others had the urge to snatch the two items in the air, but they all held back. It wasn’t smart to offend the divines like this.

Zhan Wushuang started studying the breathing technique while Su Yu proceeded to examine the items in the storage ring before moving them all into his own storage ring. He also took a deeper look at those items during the process as a precaution against any traps that might be present in them.

He even inspected them one by one with his tribulation character. After studying the breathing technique for a bit, Zhan Wushuang frowned slightly. It looked very mysterious and amazing. As someone who had cultivated a different breathing technique before, this breathing technique looked genuine at a glance.

But there was no way to fully verify it here. This was not something that could be cultivated in just one day. Even a super genius like him would need to spend several days to just cultivate the early parts of the technique. Zhan Wushuang could sense that even Tianduo had only learned the early parts of this technique.

But that wasn’t surprising. It hadn’t even been that long since Tianduo had obtained this breathing technique. Everything seemed right. Tianduo was not someone with the ability to create a fake breathing technique of such quality in only a few days. After all, he didn’t even know any breathing techniques before this.

When Zhan Wushuang was done, he passed the technique to the high-stage Sunmoon beside him. When the Sunmoon checked the technique, he nodded as well. Parts of the text felt too vague, but as a whole, the text seemed legitimate.

After taking a deep breath, Zhan Wushuang said, “Let’s complete the transaction…”

Suddenly, the mayor asked, “Tianduo, where’s my share?”

Su Yu replied, “After the deal is completed, I’ll be moving into an inner ring building. I’ll need your help with that. You will receive your share before I enter the building, Lord Mayor. Do you think that none of these people will think of robbing me after the auction?”

The mayor smiled indifferently. That was acceptable for him. He did not think that Tianduo would be able to escape him while in the city. Next, they proceeded to complete the transaction.

Everyone watched silently. At this moment, the gloomy Zhu Guangshen spoke, “Please return my deposit and entrance ticket…”

He felt terrible. He had accomplished nothing here. The divines and devils were far wealthier than he had imagined.

With a cold snort, Su Yu casually kicked the human Mountainsea toward Zhu Guangshen. He also kicked the other human Mountainsea toward Qin Hao. Done with that, he coldly asked, “Is this acceptable?”

The humans had not attended the auction with two sealed human Mountainseas. But nobody cared that they were receiving two sealed human Mountainseas now that the auction was over.

None of them cared about the sealed Mountainseas they used as the ticket. Zhu Guangshen did not protest. He didn’t really know the two human Mountainseas, but they still looked somewhat familiar. They were probably Mountainseas of a different prefecture.

Su Yu returned his focus to his exchange with Zhan Wushuang. During the process, he said, “I’ll be returning the deposit to everyone as well. Don’t worry. Compared to what I’m making here, the deposit is nothing. Just give me some time to complete the transaction.”

Finally, the second storage ring reached him. He started inspecting the items inside carefully before moving them all into his own storage ring.

Then, he tossed the storage ring with the corpse toward Zhan Wushuang. The deal was finally concluded.

Su Yu turned around and walked deeper into the building while saying, “You guys can take these tickets back as well…”

There were twenty-five Mountainseas in the building. All of them were sealed. But while facing everyone with his back, his eyes turned cold. He had chosen this building for one specific reason. Parts of the building were hidden from the view of the building across the street. Abruptly, a powerful wave of willpower swept over all the sealed Mountainseas.

Boom!

An explosion erupted. The Mountainseas were instantly blown apart. And immediately after, over twenty Mountainsea death spirits appeared around the two buildings. Also accompanying the Mountainsea death spirits were countless death spirits of lower cultivation levels.

Everyone was stunned. What?

“Damn it!”

Some of them were still confused. The auction had ended. Why was this? Why did Tianduo kill all those Mountainseas? Alas, they were not given the opportunity to think more as chaos was descending. Numerous Mountainsea death spirits had appeared. It also felt like Sunmoon death spirits were about to appear next.

A large amount of fresh blood was flung onto the street by Su Yu, causing even more death spirits to appear. Inside the building, Su Yu transformed into a gust of wind and left the building before joining the army of death spirits as a death spirit.

Meanwhile, the entrance of the opposite building was already blocked by death spirits. Ancient Mountain, the strongest individual present, looked outside with a frown. He seemed to have noticed something coming out of Tianduo’s building, but due to the large number of death spirits and the dense death qi in the air, he wasn’t able to get a good look.

Finally, all the Sunmoons roared in fury, releasing waves of powerful source qi out of the building. They demonstrated impeccable control over their strength by sending all the death spirits blocking their way flying without killing any death spirit.

Unbeknownst to them, Tianduo was long gone from the building across the street.
