Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 1390: Su Yu’s Shocking Discovery (3)

Understanding dawned on Su Yu.

“Yes! The convergence of power! The 360 acupoints will accumulate a terrifying amount of power before releasing it, transporting everyone into the mansion! Even the safe slots out there rely on these special slots to transport everyone into the mansion! The special entrance is the core of all these slots!

“Those occupying the higher-level slots will have a higher chance of being transported to the higher levels of the mansion. That’s because those slots are nearer to the source of power.”

Numerous thoughts emerged in Su Yu’s mind.

What a genius.

This was a genius design!

“No, no…the giant door is the core…That’s the yang acupoint! No, that’s the heaven acupoint!”

He swallowed nervously. This was a genius design!

“No, this isn’t right. The giant door never opens for real. Nobody has ever entered the mansion through that door. The heaven acupoint remains shut. Only the other acupoints will be opened.”

Su Yu muttered in a daze, “Could it be that…the main door has never opened because nobody has the heaven acupoint open? Will it only open for one with the heaven acupoint open? No, the yang acupoint should work. With all 360 acupoints present, the yang acupoint should be open. Why isn’t it open?

“No, this isn’t right. It is open. Those who have attempted to enter through that door have died. This fits the concept of the yang acupoint. It requires the yin aperture to balance it out.”

A terrifying idea emerged in Su Yu’s mind. These were not the sole entrances to the Luminous Domain Mansion. There were more than 3,600 entrances.

There should be 3,600 more, or perhaps 360 more entrances. If those were opened as well, yin and yang would come together. With that, one would be able to enter through the white-jade door.

“No way…right?”

His suspicions were understandable. He was way too familiar with the yang acupoint and yin aperture. After all, this was something he had discovered himself. He had started researching the so-called source soul acupoint a long time ago.

Initially, the research was merely an excuse to fool some free employees for himself. But eventually, he learned that this was actually a correct line of thought. And then, he opened the yang acupoint.

Essentially, this was a completely random idea that he had eventually verified to be feasible. Thus, he was very familiar with all these acupoints. The mere sight of the 360 doors was enough to spur numerous thoughts in his mind.

“This must be it. These are the 360 source acupoints. In that case, there must be 360 slots elsewhere, corresponding to the 360 apertures. When yin and yang become one, the heaven acupoint will open. And the heaven acupoint…is the white-jade door!”

The white-jade door. The lone door that had hovered above the sea for countless years. Nobody had stepped through that door since the end of the ancient past. Something was telling Su Yu that this door could be opened. It was merely shut because the yin aperture was still undiscovered.

In that case, where was the yin aperture? Where was the entrance corresponding to the yin aperture? Was there such an entrance? Or was he wrong?

At the same time.

Death Realm.

He Tu was in the middle of fooling a death spirit to become his helper. A powerful death spirit had awakened recently. This was He Tu’s target. The newly awakened death spirit had yet to recover many of his memories. Faced with He Tu’s persuasion, he was completely confused.

While He Tu was still trying to fool the death spirit into becoming his lackey, the space nearby trembled.

He Tu looked over doubtfully before ignoring it. The tremors were quite intense, but He Tu was unconcerned. It was merely a black hole. A black hole connected to the Celestial River of Death.

Such phenomena were very common in the Death Realm. He was already used to this. Even when he sensed the powerful pulling force from the black hole, he ignored it. He only needed to avoid being dragged to the depths of the Celestial River of Death as that would be quite troublesome.

Looking at his new friend, he smiled and said, “Brother, just follow me. It’s only a matter of time before you recover all your memories. You will know who you are. At that time, you will be able to take revenge against all who have wronged you.”

The death spirit ignored He Tu. Instead, he looked at the distant black hole. A look of recognition appeared in his eyes as he muttered, “Entrance…”

He Tu laughed and said, “Yes, it’s a tunnel leading to the depths of the Celestial River of Death. Don’t go. The depths are very dangerous.”

“Tunnel.”

The new death spirit continued muttering blankly. He kept feeling like he had forgotten something.

Meanwhile, He Tu was left quite speechless. Was that the only word this guy remembered?

He stared at the distant black hole again. After a while, he shook his head, “Brother, there’s nothing there. It merely leads to the depths of the Celestial River of Death.”

“No! That’s wrong!”

The new death spirit stared at the black hole, mesmerized.

He Tu frowned and looked at the black hole again. What?

However, he was still unconcerned. He was certain this death spirit was an extremely powerful expert prior to death. Thus, it would be normal for this death spirit to recall something. Perhaps the black hole was something this death spirit recognized.

Even so, what was so special about it? It was merely a tunnel.

He Tu thought about it and said, “Brother, wait here. I’ll take a look.”

“I want to go!”

“…”

He Tu rolled his eyes. Fine, fine. Whatever. Before long, He Tu started approaching the black hole with his new friend. He was strong, so he was quite brazen as well. He wasn’t too worried.

Next, they entered the black hole together. Inside, He Tu’s body was shaking from the powerful pulling force of the black hole. The two started moving through the tunnel in the black hole.

After traveling a long distance, a new scene unfolded before their eyes. It was a vast, starry sky.

How odd.

He Tu looked up and frowned. Those flickering stars seemed to be quite dim.

“What is this?”

Even He Tu started feeling a sense of familiarity. But before he could think much, the new death spirit before him shot toward the sky in excitement and stepped onto one of the stars. At that, the dim star lit up.

Just as He Tu was about to berate his new friend, his new friend shouted, “You…you…come up…”

He Tu scolded, “Get down here! What are you doing?”

Nevertheless, he was quite curious as well. Why did the dim star light up?

The death spirit refused. He shouted, “You…come up…come up…”

He Tu didn’t know what to say. Up his ass! Should he abandon this guy? This guy did not seem too obedient.

Seeing that his new friend was fine, he flew up as well. As he soared, he grew doubtful. Why did these stars…look familiar? No, to be precise, they felt familiar.

How odd.

Just as he was about to reach his new friend, a powerful repelling force pushed him away. That greatly shocked him. With his strength, how could he be pushed away so easily? Just what was going on?

When he landed on a different star, it lit up as well. Alarmed by the sudden change, He Tu tried to run. However, he found that a barrier had appeared around him, preventing him from leaving.

“Damn it! You did this to me!”

He Tu was furious. His new friend had led him to a trap!

Just then, a powerful suction force appeared above the stars. However, only two of the stars were lit up. Thus, the attractive force was not strong enough to pull all the stars. Only He Tu and his new friend were pulled into the sky. With their departure, the two stars dimmed again.

At the same time.

The floating white-jade gate trembled abruptly. However, it seemed to lack power as it calmed down again right after. However, that little movement attracted the attention of all the Invincibles in the area.

What was going on?

Why did the door move?

They were greatly surprised. This door had remained still for countless years. Apart from pulsing like it was breathing, it had remained completely still. Was this due to the opening of the mansion? Just then, all the tunnels shone brightly. One after another, those waiting in front of the tunnels were pulled inside.

The Invincibles were left confused. Did the door tremble because of the transference process? But this had never happened before. In the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion, the Heaven Department head had a bizarre expression on his face. But soon, he stepped forth and appeared in front of a tunnel before vanishing with a flicker.

He had entered the mansion.

He was not the only person doing so. One Invincible after another started approaching the tunnels.

The seal had been removed.

The mansion was open.

Nine-leaf skylotus!

As for the movement of the white-jade gate, they had all forgotten about it. Abruptly, a furious roar rang out.

“Bastard!”

At the exact moment, space rippled as Hollow appeared in front of a tunnel before kicking the Sunmoon there away. Somewhere below him, Yellow Nine appeared and sent a Cloudbreach flying with a slap.

Then, the two stepped into the tunnel.

At the last moment, Hollow looked back at Dao King and smiled, “Dao King, I’ll grab the nine-leaf skylotus for you! You’re welcome!”

“…”

“Damn it!”

The furious Dao King threw a palm attack forward. Even Hollow dared to provoke him?

However, his palm attack was stopped before it could go far. An immortal king beside him said with a frown, “The others are still waiting to enter the mansion.”

What was this? Yes, Hollow was vile for doing that. But Dao King’s attack was enough to kill the other immortals who were waiting to enter the mansion. Had Dao King gone mad?

Yes, Dao King had indeed gone mad. After using all his wealth, he had bought five extra slots. But now, two had been stolen right before him. His fury was understandable.

“Hollow!”

His furious roar resounded in the area. All around him, the Invincibles either sneered or looked at him with pity.

How sad. Even Hollow was bullying him now. There were so many slots to steal. However, Hollow had stolen only the slots of Dao King. What a pitiful guy.

Not far away, a spatial beast lazily said, “Hollow has been kicked out of the spatial beast race. This is unrelated to us. You better not bother us about this.”

They were not interested in taking the blame for Hollow.

Hollow was truly brazen. Even now, Tiangu was still looking for him. Instead of hiding, he had opted to steal the slots of Dao King…then again, that was a perfectly reasonable choice. Since he had offended Tiangu, it wouldn’t matter if he offended Dao King as well.

While this was going on, the top experts of the various races started vanishing one after another.

The same was happening in the human encampment. Looking at the flickering bodies around him, Great Zhou King cursed, “You told me Xia Longwu isn’t going!”

Great Xia King did not react. Yes, he did say that. But he wasn’t Xia Longwu. How was he supposed to know the real answer?

Yes. Xia Longwu had entered the mansion as well. He was not alone. Multiple human Invincibles had vanished.

After a while, Great Zhou King’s expression turned solemn again as he said, “The white-jade gate trembled slightly earlier. This isn’t normal.”

Great Xia King nodded. He had noticed it as well. How odd. He had investigated the gate before. It was an incomparably solid gate. Yet such a gate had trembled slightly earlier. He even started wondering if he had been seeing things.

It had only trembled slightly, and it had returned to normal almost immediately. However, Great Xia King was certain the gate had trembled earlier.

The two sank into contemplation.
