Tribulation of Myriad Races

Seventh level.

Inside the realm barrier.

A group of people was waiting silently inside a large building.

Everyone stayed silent.

But the sounds of heavy breathing made it clear that none of them was calm.

They all stared at Su Yu with an odd expression.

Wasn’t that trump card of his a tad bit too terrifying?

Meanwhile, Bai Feng and the others were looking around curiously. What happened?

Yun Chen looked confused as well. He had just completed his dao affirmation. Why wasn’t anyone asking him about that? He had been dragged back into the realm barrier right after his dao affirmation.

Also…wasn’t that Great Qin King? Why…did Great Qin King not feel like Great Qin King? This Great Qin King was too weak and emotional. Just look at how he was blanking out with his eyes wide. Was this still the widely feared supreme expert of humanity?

“What…”

“Shhh!”

Bai Feng was stopped before he could ask his question.

Bai Feng was left speechless. What was this?

After a long time, Great Qin King spoke, “I think he’s gone.”

He looked at Su Yu and asked, “Who’s that man?”

“Old Zhou.”

“Great Zhou King?”

As the other exclaimed in shock, Su Yu said indifferently, “No, a different friend of mine. He’s quite mad, but he will appear when I call for help. He lives in the Luminous Domain Mansion. But whenever he appears, he will kill indiscriminately. Thus, I won’t call for him unless absolutely necessary.”

“Your friend?”

They stared at him blankly. Was he being serious? That guy…his friend? Please stop messing around!

Su Yu continued nonchalantly, “That’s someone from the ancient past. He’s an expert from before Human Emperor’s era. Old Zhou was Human Emperor’s greatest competitor before the unification. Ultimately, Old Zhou was defeated and locked in the Luminous Domain Mansion. I got to know him accidentally. I can communicate with him for a bit when he’s awake, but he also tends to go berserk randomly. There’s nothing I can do about that.”

Su Yu sighed and continued, “I wanted to take Old Zhou out of the mansion and conquer the Myriad Realms with him, but it looks like that won’t be easy.”

That further stunned everyone. Hollow, Skyeater, and the other ferocious beasts swallowed nervously. Was he being serious?

Taking that guy out?

Good heavens!

Taking someone so terrifying out would most certainly plunge the world into chaos. Countless people would die and countless realms would be destroyed.

That was an extremely horrifying existence.

They couldn’t fully trust Su Yu’s words, but they also didn’t dare to neglect his words.

Bai Feng asked in astonishment, “Old Zhou? Who are you talking about? What happened, Su Yu?”

Instead of answering, Su Yu asked curiously, “Teacher, why are you here?”

“I cut the cell open and came in for my research. Why do you ask?”

Wow. Amazing.

Su Yu didn’t even know what to say anymore. Should he be impressed? How did his teacher do this? How did he move into Old Zhou’s cell?

This was probably the only place safe from Old Zhou. Su Yu wouldn’t have awakened Old Zhou if it weren’t for the safety of this place. When Old Zhou first appeared, even Su Yu himself was trembling from fear.

How terrifying.

As they conversed, the atmosphere started turning weird. That was mostly due to the weird racial composition of the people there.

Hollow, Skyeater, September, fate race, five elemental race, and death spirit race.

Yes. There was a death spirit among them. Xing Yue was still silently at the side, overlooking everyone with an air of cold arrogance.

Everyone, including Great Qin King, was staring at Su Yu, the great socializer.

Just how did he…convince so many people to cooperate with him?

What now?

Great Qin King had been greatly weakened, but the humans were in a strong position. Including Yun Chen and Great Qin King, they had six Invincibles left. Of course, a few of them were as good as crippled, but Yun Chen, Zhou Polong, and Zhu Tianfang were still mostly fine.

But among the survivors were quite a number of non Invincibles capable of fighting Invincibles. What now? Should they turn against each other?

The human Invincibles were struggling to make a decision. Great Qin King had been greatly weakened. If word of his injuries leaked, things could get very troublesome for humanity.

What should they do?

Everyone looked at Su Yu for a decision. After all, he was the one who had brought them all together.

Su Yu appeared indifferent. With a wave of his hand, a silhouette shot out from Zhu Tianfang’s body.

The little furball shouted in joy, “Yummy! We’re together again!”

Zhu Tianfang was incapable of completely trapping the little furball. Su Yu said, “Release Yellow Nine. How is my Teacher Liu doing?”

Zhu Tianfang released Yellow Nine. When he heard the question about Liu Wenyan, he hesitated and said, “I never found him and Hong Tan. I only saw them once in the Devote King’s residence, but they have vanished since then. Perhaps…”

Su Yu sank into silence, but Bai Feng appeared unworried. He said, “It’s fine. They might have entered the eighth level.”

When Su Yu looked at Bai Feng with surprise, Bai Feng explained, “We heard that there are a lot of treasures there. Some were cultural researcher treasures left by ancient past experts. Only those with ancient posts can enter, but my martial uncle seems to have such a post. Prior to entering, he said that he wanted to take a look there…”

“He has an ancient post?”

Su Yu was surprised. Where did his Teacher Liu get such a post?

An ancient post could only be conferred during the ancient past.

“He inherited it.”

Bai Feng explained nonchalantly, “He received it from the fifth principal. It hasn’t been useful up until now.”

Great Qin King added, “Yes. Ye Batian had such a post.”

Su Yu could only accept that they might have entered the eighth level.

After regaining her freedom, Yellow Nine looked at Su Yu before looking at Hollow without saying anything.

Su Yu couldn’t be bothered to waste his time. He said, “Give me the skylotus, Hollow.”

Hollow looked around cautiously and said, “After getting the skylotus, will you…”

Su Yu said, “Just hand it over. Don’t worry. Humanity might hold a slight advantage here, but I am a man of my word. If humanity dares to trouble you, I’ll side with you.”

After a slight hesitation, Hollow took the skylotus out.

The skylotus swayed about gently above Su Yu’s palm, as though it were alive.

Su Yu directly tore a petal off and tossed it at Hollow.

That caught Hollow completely by surprise. He hurriedly grabbed it, but he didn’t dare to say anything. Things still felt too dangerous here. And the addition of a petal in his hand only made him feel even more unsafe.

Su Yu looked at the others and asked, “Does anyone have Invincible corpses from the divine, devil, and immortal races?”

Great Qin King shook his head, but Zhu Tianfang answered, “I have two immortal and one divine corpses, but all of them are rather damaged. The devils had all died together. I didn’t get the chance to grab their corpses.”

“Give the corpses to Skyeater.”

Skyeater swallowed and said carefully, “I can accept the immortal corpses. It doesn’t matter if they are damaged. I prefer immortals…”

Zhu Tianfang looked at Su Yu and sighed before tossing a storage ring at Skyeater.

Then, Su Yu looked at September and said, “Senior September, you helped because of my cultivation method. Thus, I don’t have any treasures for you. But I am not one to forget my grudges and favors. I won’t forget this favor.”

September continued chewing on his bamboo silently.

Su Yu looked at the fate Invincible, who was also looking at him with an odd gaze. Noticing Su Yu’s gaze, the fate Invincible said, “I can settle with only one petal…”

Su Yu said nothing and tossed three petals over. Like Hollow, the fate Invincible felt even more unsafe with the petals in his hand. He noticed the numerous gazes that had landed on him after he received the three petals.

He was the last to join the battle, yet he had been rewarded with three petals.

How did that feel?

Great? Or dangerous?

The humans would probably be dissatisfied. They had only kept their peace because Su Yu was the one doing the distribution.

Hollow was most likely dissatisfied as well.

The fate Invincible, known as Null Seer, felt extremely uncomfortable here. When he looked at the three petals in his hand, he grew even more nervous. He felt as though he would die before he had the chance to spend this newfound wealth.

“Mayor Su, it’s fine. One is enough…I can even settle with zero…I…I…”

Su Yu said indifferently, “I never go back on my words. I promised you three, so you received three. I only hope that you learn to shut your mouth after leaving the mansion. If you can’t, I will take my three petals back along with interest. Do not doubt me.”

After a short silence, Null Seer said, “I won’t say anything. I…am willing to give one to Brother September. Are you fine with this, Mayor Su?”

“Sure.”

At that, Null Seer tossed a petal to September. After looking at both Null Seer and Su Yu, September grinned.

Su Yu ignored them.

Then, he tossed a petal to Xia Longwu. He took a carrier treasure out and said, “Prefect Xia, this is my gift out of respect for Brother Huyou. Consider this my repayment for his friendship.”

Xia Longwu said nothing, but he accepted the gifts. He needed to rebuild his bodies. With a petal and a carrier treasure, it wouldn’t be an issue anymore.

After a short silence, Su Yu tossed a petal and a carrier treasure to Qin Zhen as well.

“This is my gift to honor Great Qin.”

Qin Zhen was overjoyed. He hurriedly said, “From now on, you’re my brother!”

He had completely forgotten that he had called Su Yu his daddy not long ago. Su Yu did not mention that since it would be rude with Great Qin King around.

Next, he looked at Great Qin King. After giving out six petals, he was left with three. Noticing Great Qin King’s weakened condition, he shook his head and said, “Great Qin King, your injuries are too heavy for even the skylotus to heal. Just deal with it yourself. It’s a waste to give you these petals.”

“…”

Great Qin King was stunned speechless. After a long while, he said, “You’re right. I am left with only a past body. Even a complete skylotus won’t be able to heal me fully.”

Su Yu nodded, “Therefore, I’ll be keeping the remaining petals myself.”

“…”

Great Qin King laughed, “That is only natural. You deserve it for your effort this time.”

Lan Tian asked grudgingly, “What about me?”

Su Yu shot back, “Why do you need this? Even if I give you a thousand skylotuses with nine thousand petals in total, will that be enough?”

Lan Tian answered gloomily, “No.”

That was why. What was the point of wasting the remaining petals on him?

Su Yu had completed four transformations thus far. With three petals, he should be able to complete his seventh transformation, right?

He had also killed several Invincibles earlier with the help of others. The heavenly rewards were rather bountiful. Thus, the rewards and the petals could probably push him to the eighth transformation.

That would leave him with only the final transformation to worry about. Great Qin King was too strong for him to help. Great Qin King would need better treasures or a new path of cultivation to recover to his peak. In any case, even his past body was as strong as a seventh-degree Eternal.

As far as Su Yu was concerned, that should do for now. Great Qin King only needed to act better to hide his injuries for now. Naturally, the best way to keep the secret was to silence all the people here. But that was against Su Yu’s principles. Furthermore, it wasn’t like these people could be killed so easily.
