Tribulation of Myriad Races

The hall’s noise isolation ability was rather impressive.

The moment the gate was shut, no sound from the outside could be heard anymore.

Inside, Mo Duona saw Su Yu’s smiling face. “Mo Duona, are you enjoying yourself throwing insults at me like that?”

“Nope.”

Mo Duona denied. He did not insult anyone. He was merely speaking the truth.

Su Yu laughed indifferently and said, “It’s fine. I don’t care. I suppose I’m truly shameless. It is in line with my persona. In fact, I have countless personas. I can show you any persona you want to see.”

How shameless. Both Mo Duona and Xing Yue cursed inwardly. They had never seen someone so shameless. How was someone so young capable of being so shameless?

Su Yu said, “So, we have established that Mo Duona is the killer. Sigh. Mo Duona, the devils are indeed villainous.”

He laughed and crushed a ball of light in his hand. Instantly, a phenomenon appeared. That was a ninth-stage Sunmoon. After killing so many people, Su Yu was finally receiving another heavenly reward. Multiple glowing clouds appeared and descended upon him. However, he frowned upon seeing them.

After fully absorbing the energy in the clouds, he shook his head, “Garbage. They couldn’t even help me complete a source qi transformation.”

“…”

Mo Duona asked blankly, “Just what is your cultivation level right now?”

“First-stage Cloudbreach.” Su Yu asked, “That’s too weak, right? It’s fine. Yang Hu is still here. Many of the geniuses are still alive. I can kill them all and wait for the next reward.”

Zhankui had killed himself. Thus, Su Yu had not been able to obtain any reward from that kill. It didn’t matter. Killing geniuses was better than killing experts.

Su Yu said, “If I were you, I would shut my eyes and seal my senses. I wouldn’t want to learn too much lest I needed silencing.”

Mo Duona sighed and did as told before sitting down cross-legged.

Xing Yue snorted and asked, “Su Yu, what do you want?”

“…”

Su Yu blanked out. After a short moment, he said, “Lord, what can I do? I did nothing. You came here yourself. I only got you out here after learning of your arrival. How is that my fault?”

What an odd question.

Xing Yue was the one who had insisted on coming. While speaking, Su Yu took his Mark of Civilization out and started absorbing everything. The flesh and blood of the many immortals were strewn all over the hall. He needed to collect them.

While collecting the flesh and blood, Su Yu asked, “Lord, is the death blood really so useful?”

“Yes!”

“Sure. I’ll get Mo Duona to hand it over before you leave.”

“…I don’t want it!”

Xing Yue snorted coldly. She did not want his stuff.

Su Yu said, “What are you saying, Lord? I’m your loyal subordinate. All my things belong to you. Only when you grow strong will I live a good life. Everything of mine is yours.”

Xing Yue thought about it and said with some hesitation, “Fine. But…”

Su Yu said, “You once picked up a carrier treasure in the ancient city. It is useless for you. Perhaps you can consider bestowing it upon me?”

That was the first carrier treasure Su Yu had ever seen. Ultimately, it had been collected by Xing Yue. It was something resembling a piece of jade.

The moment Xing Yue heard that she was bestowing it instead of trading it, she found herself greatly agreeable to his suggestion. She agreed with satisfaction, “Sure. I will bestow it upon you.”

Then, she tossed a carrier treasure at Su Yu.

With a smile, Su Yu picked it up. Then, he picked up two more carrier treasures from the floor. One was dropped by Zhankui while the other was dropped by Yang Hu. This was quite lucky. He had obtained three carrier treasures from this battle.

It was profitable. Including those he already had and those he had harvested in the mansion…

Tsk tsk.

Su Yu had around fifteen carrier treasures in total. Sure enough, carrier treasures weren’t that hard to get. He felt like he could find them everywhere. He hadn’t even checked the storage rings of his recent victims. Perhaps he could find more from these rings.

He wondered if he could extract some blood essence from the two dead Pseudo Invincibles. It was probably not possible for Zhankui.

But Yang Hu’s blood could be found all over the hall. Perhaps he could extract some. This was truly profitable. Su Yu couldn’t help but sigh at how easy it was to make money.

While thinking to himself, he had his book kill everyone trapped inside. What was the point of keeping them around?

One after another, they were killed.

Most of the people in the book were killed without even knowing what was happening. However, some of them were still able to stay clear-headed. When Su Yu flipped to a certain page, Xuan Wuji’s voice rang out, “Don’t kill me, Su Yu! I have treasures! My grandpa has treasures to offer as well! You can trade my life for treasures!”

“It’s fine. I will get all the treasures after killing your grandpa.”

With that, the book devoured Xuan Wuji. A glowing cloud dropped down from above. Once again, Su Yu’s acupoints shook. However, he still couldn’t complete his second source qi transformation. This was indeed difficult.

Su Yu sighed. He had killed so many people beyond his level. He was only a Cloudbreach. Meanwhile, these people were already Sunmoons. How was he still stuck at the first transformation?

This made zero sense. As for Xuan Wuji, he saw no need to keep Xuan Wuji around.

Before long, he flipped to a page with Dao Cheng’s face on it. With a dispirited expression, Dao Cheng said, “What do you want? I can even act as your spy and betray the immortals. You can control me from afar…”

Su Yu smiled, “No thanks, Brother Dao Cheng. Don’t say that. Truth be told, I like you a lot. But I also fear you. You are the only person who has survived for so long after making an enemy out of me. Almost all my enemies who are weaker than I have died. You are the sole survivor. That’s very scary. Don’t worry, Brother Dao Cheng. After you die, I will take my time examining your entire life. All that is yours will be mine. Go with peace, Brother.”

Su Yu sighed and continued, “Do you know that I rarely speak so much to someone who is going to die? Not even He Tu is qualified to receive so many words from me. Know that you have a special spot in my heart. You might even return as a death spirit after this. I’m serious. That might happen. Don’t worry, I’ll visit the Death Realm to kill you again in the future. Don’t thank me.”

Finally, despair appeared in Dao Cheng’s eyes.

“Su Yu, I regret it.”

“Do you regret offending me?”

“No. I regret not killing you during our first meeting. If I couldn’t, I should have gotten my grandpa to do it personally. I shouldn’t have allowed you to grow.”

“Sigh. Too bad there’s no cure for regret. Don’t be sad. Cultivate hard and aim to become a death sovereign in the Death Realm.”

After flashing Dao Cheng a final grin, he had the book consume Dao Cheng. Su Yu did not bother to go over his spoils. There was no rush. He would first kill all these people. For some reason, an imperceptible sense of relief washed over him after killing Dao Cheng. Furthermore, yet another glowing cloud dropped down from the sky.

Xing Yue muttered in surprise, “He…was the immortals’ child of fate. He could have grown into an Invincible if he hadn’t died here.”

Su Yu laughed, “Is that so? Wow. I should be thankful, then.”

Xing Yue did not see this as that big of a deal.

***

Meanwhile, the outside world was growing crazy.

Dao Cheng was dead.

Xuan Wuji was dead.

One top genius after another was dead. All of them were immortals.

Even Pseudo Invincibles had died. First, it was Zhankui. Then, it was Yang Hu.

Two Pseudo Invincibles, eight index geniuses, six ninth-stage Sunmoons, and one eighth-stage Sunmoon. No, there were two more seventh-stage Sunmoons as well.

Su Yu had killed both Pan Hu and Fourth Heaven while going through his book. He had received their seas of willpower from Mo Duona.

Boom!

The world shook.

Once again, Tiangu’s projection manifested in the sky. He watched the collapsing tunnels in silence. Nearby, Dao King, Xuan King, and many other Invincibles watched in silence as well. Up in the sky, dark clouds gathered.

Dead.

All dead.

Excluding the five immortal kings, all the elites the immortal race had sent into the mansion had died. Two of them were even Heaven Index geniuses. Dao King had a pale expression. His grandson had died. His disciple had died. Everyone he sent inside had died. No one survived. Even Xuan Wuji, the beloved genius of the immortals, had died.

The Invincibles of other races started distancing themselves from the immortals. The immortals would most likely go crazy from this. With all these deaths, one could say that the immortals had lost an entire generation of future pillars.

Finally, Tiangu laughed, “Good. Well done. Dead. All dead.”

The space around him started cracking while blood clouds gathered above him, signifying that he was on the verge of losing control over his temper. He was furious. This was the heaviest blow they had suffered in this epoch.

People like Xuan Wuji and Dao Cheng were future Invincibles. Even Yang Hu and many of the recently dead were potential Invincibles. In his eyes, at least five of them could grow into Invincibles in the future.

This was a massive loss.

Five.

Those five had high probabilities of growing into Invincibles.

They had essentially lost five Invincibles of this epoch.

“Hehe…”

Tiangu looked at the devils, laughed coldly, and vanished. He looked at them because Zhankui was also among the dead. He was certain Zhankui had not died to a death spirit. And apart from Zhankui, only immortals had died. Did they die together?

Did the devils attack the immortals? That was the conclusion many reached. All of them were amazed at how ruthless the devils were. Wasn’t this the same as a war declaration? Generally, they would refrain from killing the top geniuses of the younger generation. Doing so would generally result in a blood feud.

Thus, a war between the immortals and devils would most likely break out after the immortals found enough evidence that the devils were behind this.

***

In the human encampment.

Great Zhou King and Great Xia King looked at each other. After a deep inhalation, Great Xia King said, “The devils are truly crazy.”

They had wiped out an entire generation of immortals. This was the same as killing the likes of Qin Fang and Huang Teng. Furthermore, even Pseudo Invincibles and ninth-stage Sunmoons had been killed. This was crazy.

Not even Great Xia King had the courage to do something like this. After killing all those people, humanity could start hiding in the Human Realm.

However, Great Zhou King merely raised his brow and sent a voice transmission, “Don’t get too excited. Do you think the devils will do something like this? Be careful lest the actual culprit is a human.”

Great Xia King blanked out.

This couldn’t be true, right?

If the culprit was a human…he started feeling nervous. He sent a voice transmission, “If it was Su Yu, it wouldn’t matter since he’s already the enemy of the myriad races. But…what if it was Longwu?”

That would be very troublesome. He glanced at the ancient city instinctively. Since Su Yu wasn’t in the mansion, he could only pray that it was not a different human. If it was really a human, they better wipe out all evidence before leaving.

Great Zhou King glanced at the ancient city as well. He doubted that even Xia Longwu would be so crazy unless the five immortal kings in the mansion were dead.

He would only do so if he stopped caring about humanity. The immortals would not let this slide. The five immortal kings in the mansion were still alive.

“Not many people have the courage to do something like this…it must be…Su Yu.”

Great Zhou King sighed inwardly. What a ruthless man.

Su Yu had truly been born in the wrong era. If he had been born during the era when humanity dominated, he would have slaughtered the myriad races all by himself.
