Tribulation of Myriad Races

Among the humans, Administrator Hu could be considered their strongest expert as a high-stage Sunmoon. The rest of the human experts had entered the seventh level. After looking around, he sighed.

The humans had not suffered that big of a loss in the mansion. However, they had still lost over a hundred experts below the Sunmoon Realm.

Seeing that almost everyone had arrived, Administrator Hu wasted no time and said, “Everyone, time to make a decision. We can’t afford to waste more time. How do we leave? Who will leave first? We need a middle-stage Sunmoon to support the activation of the entrance. It’s pointless to keep fighting here. The moment He Tu arrives, all will die. There are a lot of us here yet only a small number of people can go through at a time. We need to decide on an order and start moving immediately.”

The other races were quite dissatisfied with humanity’s low losses, but nobody was willing to waste their time bickering or fighting here.

A sixth-stage Sunmoon immortal said, “The immortals, divines, and devils will leave in turns. Then, the dragons and ancient races can leave. The humans will leave after everyone.”

The humans were alarmed to hear that.

Administrator Hu said, “Yubo, are you sure?”

The immortal said, “Yes. You can try to protest. Let’s see if anyone will agree with you.”

A black-armored expert beside Administrator Hu said, “You can try forcing us. Do you think we’ll just bend over? Either we leave fairly or we stay together!”

Before the argument could continue, Mo Duona said, “Just shut up. The time you’re going to waste bickering is better used to leave. We form groups of ten. The races with fewer people can join the other groups. The minor and ancient races will go first. The divine, devil, immortal, human, and dragon races will leave last.”

Those from the minor and ancient races were filled with gratitude upon hearing that. They had been worrying that the major races would leave them behind when leaving.

Surprisingly, Mo Duona was letting them go first.

Xuan Wuji frowned and said, “Mo Duona, you are free to be a saint, but don’t impose your will upon us.”

Mo Duona said, “Sure. You are free to go first. When the minor and ancient races find that they can leave, they will go mad and decide to die with us. Is that what you want to see? Or do you want the humans to leave last? There are hundreds of them here. If we fight them, we might as well sit down and wait for He Tu. Don’t forget that He Tu will spend only about four to six hours per level. He’s probably on the fifth level already. He will be here soon.”

Hearing that, Xuan Wuji frowned. The young geniuses started looking at each other. Then, Zhan Wushuang said, “The minor and ancient races will leave first. Stop wasting time. The major races will leave in turns. Ten people will leave per turn. All this bickering is pointless. If you want to fight, do it on the seventh level.”

Ming Yue, Long Yingyue, and the other geniuses nodded in agreement.

What was the point of fighting here? Suddenly, a loud rumble erupted from afar. Multicolored rays of light covered the sky.

The high-stage Sunmoons all looked in the direction of the disturbance. One of them exclaimed with surprise, “The emergence of a treasure…”

Instantly, about eight high-stage Sunmoons vanished with a flicker.

***

Far away.

After spending a long time, Su Yu was finally able to dig a hole in the ground. And the moment he was done, he grinned. Sure enough, there was something valuable down there. It was a massive blood reishi, growing right inside the belly button. He was unsure if this was a part of Old Zhou’s body as well.

However, he couldn’t deny that this was a precious treasure. With one look, he knew that this treasure was only slightly less valuable than the ancient dragonblood tree. It wasn’t strong enough to serve as a carrier treasure, but it was most certainly a treasure.

Naturally, the multicolored rays of light it released weren’t that conspicuous. Su Yu had merely given it some assistance to make the rays of light a lot more noticeable than before.

Just as Su Yu was about to reach out and harvest the blood reishi, his expression changed as he roared, “Audacious! Who dares to steal my treasure?”

Then, he drew a sword and swung it at a falling palm from the sky. The palm collided against the sword, causing it to shake and Su Yu to cough a mouthful of blood.

Once again, Su Yu roared furiously, “Impudent! I have waited several days here for this treasure to mature. Are you looking down on the immortal race?”

Right as those words were spoken, Yubo, the eighth-stage Sunmoon who had been conversing with Administrator Hu earlier, appeared. He roared, “Enough. This treasure has been claimed by the immortal race. Are you trying to make an enemy out of the immortal race?”

At that, several Sunmoons appeared out of thin air.

The one who had attacked earlier was a devil with crimson hair. That was a Sunmoon from the blood fire race. He grinned and said, “What an excellent treasure. Heavenly blood reishi. It is perfect for those with my legacy. Isn’t this Ling Heng? Consider giving me the reishi as a gift.”

Su Yu replied coldly, “Are you dreaming? Do you think you can step all over Dao King’s line? Do you think you can step all over the immortal race? Lord Yubo is here. Are you going to rob me in front of him?”

Yubo frowned. In truth, he didn’t feel like interfering in this. Ling Heng was someone from Dao King’s line. Meanwhile, he was someone from the ancient immortal line. However, the ancient immortals were supposed to be the leaders of the immortals. Thus, he was obligated to interfere.

He said, “Ling Heng found this reishi himself. Xue Tai, if you want it, talk about it outside the mansion. This is a valuable treasure, but it’s not too useful for immortals. You can trade for it outside the mansion. Don’t create trouble here. Do you want the immortals and devils to fight here so the humans can benefit?”

The blood fire devil merely sneered. Beside him, an original devil said, “Xue Tai, we’ll deal with this outside. The blood fire devils have lost a lot of people as well. Must you create trouble now?”

The blood fire devils were getting more and more rebellious as of late. Xue Tai had started fighting without even informing them.

Noticing all the gaze on him, Xue Tai snorted and said, “I hope he can keep it. Ling Heng, as a mere third-stage Sunmoon, you should learn to be more tactful. Of course, I’ll let this slide this time out of respect for everyone here.”

After putting the blood reishi away, Su Yu looked around and said, “You may leave now. Why are you still here?”

Yubo asked in astonishment, “How many days have you been here?”

“Since entering the mansion…”

Yubo looked around and frowned, “You sure are lucky. Come with us. Gather at the entrance to the seventh level.”

“Seventh level?”

“Don’t you have your index copy with you?”

“Nope.”

“No wonder.”

Yubo couldn’t help but admit that Ling Heng was lucky. If the treasure had not emerged now, he would remain clueless until He Tu’s arrival. Even if Ling Heng wasn’t from his line, this was still an immortal. A third-stage Sunmoon immortal.

Yubo said, “Come with us. I’ll explain more later. Dao Cheng is there as well.”

Su Yu frowned, “The seventh level? That place is a lot more dangerous…”

“At least one Invincible death spirit has entered the mansion.”

That single statement caused Su Yu’s expression to change. When Su Yu joined Yu Bo in the sky, Yu Bo sighed and said, “Your luck is terrific. We’re on the verge of leaving. Without us, a third-stage Sunmoon like you might not be able to open the entrance alone.”

Su Yu’s eyes flickered as he asked, “It has only been a few days. Why have things changed so much? Lord Yu Bo, how about the others from my line?”

“Dao Cheng is still around. Pan Hu is around as well. I don’t see anyone else.”

Su Yu exclaimed with shock, “So…are all of them gone? There were more than ten of us. Lord Taihe might be on the seventh level. Is everyone else dead?”

Yubo nodded. This wasn’t that bad. What was there to be unhappy about this? At the very least, there were still four survivors in Dao King’s line.

The so-called Taihe was a ninth-stage Sunmoon immortal. He was most certainly on the seventh level. Of course, nobody could promise that he was still alive. After all, there were Invincibles on the seventh level.

***

A short while later, Su Yu arrived at the entrance.

Dao Cheng was evidently surprised to see Su Yu. Beside him, a third-stage Sunmoon exclaimed in joy, “Ling Heng! You’re still alive!”

Their line has been greatly weakened in the mansion. Fortunately, Ling Heng was still around.

Su Yu smiled and said, “Of course I’m still around, Pan Hu. I looked for you earlier, but I failed. Forget it.”

He cupped his fists at Dao Cheng and sighed, “Prince…I wasn’t aware of this before…”

Dao Cheng bowed slightly and said, “I’m glad to see that you’re fine, Senior Brother Ling Heng. Were you treasure seeking before this?”

Su Yu nodded. After scanning their surroundings, he sent the two a voice transmission, “Heavenly blood reishi. It isn’t good enough to serve as a carrier treasure, but we might be able to trade it for a carrier treasure with the blood fire devils.”

Both Dao Cheng and Pan Hu were pleased to hear that.

Was that true?

Seeing that nobody was paying him any attention, Su Yu stealthily gave Dao Cheng a storage ring and said, “Prince, a lot of people saw me harvesting this reishi. You need to keep it. Please take it out and get our lord a carrier treasure with it.”

When Dao Cheng focused on the storage ring, his heart thumped. It was an ancient heavenly blood reishi. This thing might really be valuable enough to be traded for a carrier treasure.

He looked at Ling Heng gratefully and said, “Senior Brother Ling Heng, thank you! I can’t do much here since there are many eyes on us, but Dao King’s line will not forget this contribution!”

“I am only doing what is right.”

Su Yu grinned and activated his saint character lightly, making him look rather reliable and trustworthy.

***

The others did not pay much thought to that. They only knew that Ling Heng had harvested a large heavenly blood reishi. Quite a lot of them were slightly envious.

The humans did not pay much attention to Ling Heng either. Yellow Nine was the exception. Wasn’t this the Sunmoon she saw when she first entered the mansion? Wasn’t he dead?

Su Yu?

She was unsure. Su Yu had been too fast when killing. She wasn’t given the chance to take a proper look.

However, this still seemed suspicious to her. Was this guy…setting his sights on the immortals this time? Was he not worried about being found out by the immortal Invincibles? This guy sure was gutsy.

Yellow Nine was unsure, but someone else was sure. Even from so far away, the little furball could smell Yummy’s scent. He had the urge to give Yummy a good lick.

“Yummy!”

As the little furball wrinkled his nose, he noticed that Yummy smelled even better than before. He really wanted to eat Yummy like a lollipop.
