Tribulation of Myriad Races

Wisdom King had arrived.

Su Yu could feel it. Thus, he increased the speed of the tunnel’s closure.

The moment Wisdom King went through the tunnel, he felt something wrong. But he did not react or run. At the time, he still had the chance to stop others from coming. But he did nothing. With more people, he might still survive. But alone, he would definitely die.

Was it better to flee with a bunch of helpers? Or should he flee alone and die after failing? The answer was simple. He did not want to die. Thus, he did not stop the others from entering.

Moments later, seventeen Invincibles appeared behind him.

Meanwhile, Su Yu continued fleeing in Xing Yue’s direction with Wan Tiansheng instead of staying near the tunnel.

Rumble!

Finally, the tunnel shut fully.

“Here?”

“Only these people?”

“There are quite a lot of them.”

“Yeah. Do we start now?”

Ads by PubRev “Of course.”

“Let’s do it.”

Boom!

Instantly, a massive amount of death qi surged into the sky. The death sovereigns were making full use of the advantage they had in their home ground.

He Tu, Dummy, and Xing Yue attacked as well.

Just because there were only thirty-six ancient cities did not mean that there were only thirty-six death sovereigns under these cities. For example, He Tu had two death sovereigns under his rule. There were also random death sovereigns in the area who did not belong to any territories, such as Dummy.

Including Dummy and a few others, there were forty-four death sovereigns present. Their strength varied. There was no ninth-degree Eternal among them as He Tu did not bother to invite them. In any case, there were very few such top experts in this area. Nobody needed to say anything.

A battle had erupted just like that. All the newly arrived Invincibles were cursing. And who were they cursing? No idea. But it was likely Wisdom King instead of Su Yu. That idiot had dragged them all into a trap.

Wisdom King was not bothered to fight the death spirits to the death. He started breaking out of the encirclement without saying anything. He had to leave. He was the strongest person present.

Even when He Tu, Dummy, and two seventh-degree Eternals were attacking him together, he was able to push them back. He had to kill his way out.

***

Further away.

Wan Tiansheng was still sweating beside Su Yu.

How terrifying.

He couldn’t help but not be impressed. How did Su Yu gather so many death sovereigns together? There were so many of them.

More importantly, the death spirits were ignoring them. He sent a voice transmission, “Do we leave now?”

Su Yu replied, “No. Let’s go to the tunnel. Xing Yue’s tunnel. That’s the nearest tunnel. Only one expert at the level of a sovereign can go through it at once. Someone will definitely try escaping that way. The second nearest tunnel is over ten thousand kilometers away. Even Invincibles will need some time to go that far. No living being can travel so far in the Death Realm without attracting more death spirits unless they can transform into death spirits as well.”

In short, there was no escape for living beings in the Death Realm. They had to flee as soon as possible or they would die. But where should they flee toward? Even if they were somehow familiar with this region, the second nearest tunnel was still too far away for them to reach.

Su Yu said, “Principal, go and watch the tunnel. Your aura as a living being is too obvious. You might attract unwanted attention. I’ll wait here and find a chance to kill a few of them.”

“I’m going alone?”

Wan Tiansheng was feeling quite timid. Death spirits and death qi were everywhere. He could already feel the corrosion of his body. A living being would only grow weaker the longer they stayed here.

“Don’t worry.” Su Yu said, “Go first or these death sovereigns might get crazy when the fight grows intense. At the tunnel, just shout when some death spirits are trying to attack you. Or you can simply go out and drag Liu Hong down with you. He can handle the death spirits for you.”

Su Yu urged, “Come on, Principal. We don’t have much time.”

At that, Wan Tiansheng stopped hesitating and left. He could feel that the death sovereigns were starting to grow berserk. When that happened, they would no longer care who they were attacking.

As for Su Yu, he transformed fully into a death spirit after sealing his heart away. Next, he summoned a few death spirits over. The Pseudo Invincible death spirits arrived with a large number of weaker death spirits to pay greetings to their chief commander.

“Chief Commander…”

The Pseudo Invincibles looked at the battle nearby. It was a massive battle involving a large number of sovereigns. Thus, the Pseudo Invincible death spirits appeared rather alarmed. They were unsure of what was happening.

Looking at the Sunmoon death spirits behind them, Su Yu narrowed his eyes and asked, “Can these loyal warriors of ours detonate themselves?”

“Yes.”

The death spirit generals nodded. These weak death spirits lacked intelligence, including even the Sunmoons. Thus, they were able to fully control the weaker death spirits.

“Have them detonate themselves in groups to kill those living beings.” Su Yu added, “You guys move over as well. Find a chance to kill the living beings.”

“Yes!”

They agreed readily and left with their subordinates. They showed zero fear, but this was in line with how death spirits worked. Fear was something many of them could barely feel. Since their chief commander had given them an order, they only needed to worry about carrying it out, nothing else.

Just then, a rumble rang out as a living Invincible was torn apart by several death sovereigns while wailing in pain. The death spirits started consuming the flesh and blood in excitement. The blood of the living was a delicacy for death spirits.

If even the death spirits in ancient cities could easily detect the living beings there, it was only natural that this was also applicable for these death sovereigns. For them, spilling blood and killing were the most exciting things to do.

After swallowing a chunk of flesh, a death sovereign laughed and said, “Xing Yue, He Tu, is this the feast you talked about? Hahaha! This is great! This is my kind of feast!”

He felt great. There was more than one living being here. It was rare for these death sovereigns to find the chance to kill so many living Invincibles. In fact, it was so rare that many of them had never encountered such a situation before.

And now, it was happening. The living Invincibles were greatly outnumbered. Each of them was forced to meet multiple opponents alone. To make things worse, this was the home ground of the death spirits.

There was no source qi here. Only death qi was available here. Su Yu could act freely here, but that wasn’t the case for them. They were forced to rely on only the source qi stored in their bodies. The moment they ran out of their supply, they would have no choice but to fight with only their physical bodies.

The death sovereigns continued attacking, corroding the bodies of the living Invincibles with a large amount of death qi. With the home ground superiority, numerical superiority, and fearlessness of the death sovereigns, the living Invincibles started dying one after another.

It was as though a chain reaction had started right after the first death. After all, with each living Invincible dead, more death sovereigns would be free to help the other death sovereigns.

“Su Yu!” One of them begged in desperation, “Spare me! Spare us! We regret this, but we were forced to do this! The immortals forced us! We had no choice!”

“We are only minor and weak races. Before the human race had even established contact with the Allheaven Battlefield, the immortals, devils, divines, and dragons were already ruling the Allheaven Battlefield. We have no choice. They even have spies in our realms…”

“Su Yu, spare us! Have mercy! If I die, my race will fall alongside me…”

The Invincibles begged one after another. They didn’t want to die. They were the grand ancestors of their realms. They were the ultimate pillars of their races. Their deaths would result in the extermination of their races.

Su Yu merely watched on with a cold and detached expression.

Sparing them?

How laughable.

He could no longer control these death spirits. But even if he could, he wouldn’t spare these people. He was a petty person. Since they had dared to fight him, they would need to pay the price regardless of their consequences. It was too late for them to beg for mercy now.

The dark robes on Su Yu’s body faded away as he transformed into a regular death spirit and mixed among the group of regular death spirits. His offensive strength was good enough that he could probably kill any of these Invincibles with a sneak attack, Wisdom King excluded.

Disguised as a regular death spirit, he approached an Invincible who was facing two death sovereigns alone and threw a punch.

Boom!

The Invincible was blasted apart.

When the two death sovereigns looked at him in confusion, he smiled and said, “Eat. I don’t like eating. I’ll only gather a tiny bit of blood.”

Then, the Mark of Civilization appeared and gathered some blood and flesh. In such a manner, Su Yu started roaming the area, throwing a punch now and then. While doing that, Su Yu was also paying close attention to the Wisdom King.
