Tribulation of Myriad Races

Translating...Chapter 2139: Peak Combat Strength (3)

Suddenly, Heavendoom exclaimed in shock, ”Wait, don’t tell me Snow Orchid is Martial King’s daughter!”

”Bullshit!” Giant Axe Marquis denied vehemently, ”Absolute nonsense! Snow Orchid is naturally not his daughter. She was born before Snow King was made a king. I knew her father. I even met him several times before. He was quite an ancient existence. I reckon Cloud Fire knew him as well.”

Cloud Fire Marquis nodded. That was true. ”But he died quite early on. Snow Orchid was born over thirty years after he died.”

”...”

Everyone’s expression turned odd. A major scandal!

Giant Axe Marquis continued arguing, ”So? Back then, the war had yet to end. Snow King froze her womb to delay Snow Orchid’s birth to participate in the war. You know that. Why are you saying this now? Are you picking a fight with me, Cloud Fire?”

For super experts, time of birth was controllable. They could seal the womb away and give birth only when they were ready.

Everyone nodded. Nobody said anything. But their odd gazes remained. Was Giant Axe Marquis really interested in Snow King? Wow. He had been hiding that so well. No wonder he had been so helpful toward Snow Orchid.

He was actually trying to be her stepdaddy.

Su Yu smiled and said nothing. He reached out to grab the chunk of ice and gave it another scan. ”This ice sealing method is quite interesting. It can’t be unsealed easily. This is quite an excellent method of life preservation.”

Then, a unique clump of flame erupted from his hand. Unlike regular flames, this was a frosty flame. As the flame wrapped itself around the chunk of ice, the seal was slowly undone.

A short while later, a ball of light appeared before everyone’s eyes. Then, the ball of light transformed into a human form. The newly awakened Snow Orchid General looked at Su Yu with surprise.

Su Yu? Here?

In that case, where was this?

When she looked around, she grew even more astonished. Where did all these powerhouses come from? Also, those who had supposedly self-detonated not long ago were all still alive and well.

Not waiting for her to speak, Su Yu said indifferently, ”Senior Giant Axe asked me to unseal you and help with the recovery of your physical body. Just follow Senior Giant Axe from now on. As the price of this favor, he has agreed to work for me moving forward.”

Snow Orchid was surprised to hear that. Giant Axe Marquis hurriedly said, ”No, not at all. I have to thank Emperor Yu for your generosity.”

Su Yu said, ”Don’t worry about it. This is no big deal. I will start draining the heavenly desolate beast dao soon. Take this chance to recover, Snow Orchid.”

Snow Orchid had many questions, but this did not seem the time for questions.

Also, where was this place?

Human Realm?

Was this how Human Realm looked like these days? But this place didn’t feel like the Human Realm. In that case, where could this be? There were so many powerhouses here. During her previous conversation with Brave Martial General, she wasn’t told that there were so many powerhouses on Su Yu’s side. How long had it been since then?

Why did it feel like all the people who had self-detonated had grown much stronger than before? Had it been a hundred years? Or a thousand years, perhaps?

Snow Orchid grew confused.

***

Su Yu walked toward the hole he had previously dug.

He only needed to pull the heavenly desolate beast dao from this place. The heavenly desolate beast dao was first sealed by Culture King. Subsequently, Su Yu had handed it to Great Qin King and Great Xia King. But now, it was masterless yet again.

Su Yu was quite curious about what Xing Yue had left for him in that dao.

A drop of blood appeared in Su Yu’s hand. That was the blood of the heavenly desolate beast he had kept on him. The moment he activated the blood, a wild aura erupted as an indistinct dao manifested before him.

Su Yu’s comprehension of the various daos had deepened considerably, allowing him to draw the dao over even if it wasn’t here. And when Su Yu opened his Heaven Gate, he saw a wave of dao power spreading in his direction.

Before long, the dao power started seeping through the hole. With a wave of his hand, Su Yu tore a rift in the sky. Then, he stepped into the River of Time. Before long, he was standing before the tributary.

He stepped into the tributary. The tributary resisted him, but the resistance vanished soon after. After a simple scan, Su Yu smiled. The dao had been sealed with his life and death powers. Thus, it couldn’t stop him. Anyone else would have a hard time entering this tributary.

When he looked around, he blanked out.

What a dense life force and physical body power.

”Where did she get all this power?”

How curious.

Even if Xing Yue had the life dao under her control, she had just resurrected. How did she gather so much power? Furthermore, the power she gathered wasn’t wild, masterless power. Rather, the dao she gathered was quite tame and calm.

How odd.

”Is this the power she sealed off in the past?”

That was the only conclusion Su Yu could reach. He didn’t manage to guess that Xing Yue would drain the power straight from Hundred Battle King’s people.

Su Yu chuckled. This wasn’t a bad thing. He was in dire need of physical body power. He had been worried that the heavenly desolate beast dao alone wouldn’t be enough, but now, he had enough power to help all his power.

The life power was also quite useful as it could both heal injuries and strengthen bodies. It could also improve one’s life force and increase one’s lifespan. Su Yu wasn’t too bothered about the life power here. Xing Yue must have left this power here for him to regain his lifespan.

However, that wasn’t something he needed too badly. He believed that he would be able to break through to the next level within ten years. At that time, he would naturally gain more lifespan.

If he couldn’t break through within ten years, well, he would probably be dead before then. Thus, his current lifespan was enough for him. He reckoned he only needed three years.

”In any case, there is a life dao within my world. I can naturally gain more lifespan when I grow stronger.”

But lifespan was still useful as some of the ancient fellows under him needed more. After all, the closer one was to the limit of one’s lifespan, the more one’s condition would deteriorate.

”Giant Axe, March, Cloud Fire, and the others are quite old. The life power here can help them recover to their peak.”

The newly resurrected experts needed more life power as well. After all, their life force was quite low even after their resurrection. This was good.

Su Yu smiled. Xing Yue’s gift was exactly what he needed for now. This should be enough for all of his people to recover.

”Looks like she has indeed regained most of her memories.”

Su Yu was also feeling quite puzzled. Xing Yue had lived for many years before dying, and she had also existed as a death spirit for many years. With the flood of her old memories, would her recent memories with Su Yu remain strong in her mind?

But upon thinking about it, Su Yu concluded that it was possible.

After all, Xing Yue had been a shut-in for over a hundred thousand years. She had spent all those years gardening, and she might have lived the same way before her death as well. Thus, there wouldn’t be many variations in her many years of memories. In that situation, it would be very easy for the memories of something different to stand out.

”How terrifyingly antisocial.”

Su Yu shook his head and tossed the matter aside. With a roar, he threw a punch at the heavenly desolate beast dao. He needed to break it and drain all its power. Doing this to a dao with a master would result in a battle to the death.

But this was a masterless dao. Nobody would care what he did to it.

***

Boom!

It was as though the sky was collapsing.

A large hole appeared in the sky. Su Yu stepped out of the hole, followed by a seemingly endless stream of physical body power and life power. He smiled and said, ”Recover your bodies. As for the seniors, take this chance to strengthen your life force.”

Everyone started absorbing the incoming power. Great Xia King and Great Qin King in particular, were former cultivators of this dao. Thus, their absorption speed was terrifyingly fast.

Su Yu’s gaze landed on a group of people standing far away and said, ”Great Jin King, Great Chu King, and the others. Try to take this chance to advance into the Daofuse Realm.”

These founding kings had yet to break through.

They looked at each other in silence. Suddenly, Great Jin King asked, ”Your Majesty, after our breakthrough, can we take our physical body dao and fuse into your world? We wish to forge a physical body dao and cultivate it together in your world.”

Su Yu nodded, ”You can. But are you sure you want to forge the same dao in there?”

”We are...warriors.”

It wasn’t like they didn’t want to cultivate different daos, but they were essentially brutes. This was the only thing they were good at. The weapon daos had mostly been snatched by the others. What else could they do apart from building a physical body dao in Su Yu’s world? They could still aim to do what the ancient human kings did.

With a smile, Su Yu nodded. And next, the founding kings who had yet to switch their daos started absorbing the physical body dao to push into the next level. They were not interested in fighting Hundred Battle King over the physical body dao. They would rather build a new physical body dao in Su Yu’s world.

In the blink of an eye, multiple new Daofuses appeared among Su Yu’s people. As for the others, they started rebuilding their bodies. As everyone grew, Su Yu’s world started expanding again.

One could say that Su Yu was now growing without doing anything. Everyone grew stronger than before, while Great Qin King and Great Xia King fully recovered from their physical injuries. With their full recovery, they started showing signs of taking another step forward.

Would they become Venerables soon? If so, they would remain heavenly kings even outside Su Yu’s world.

Su Yu couldn’t help but start growing expectant. It would be nice if all of them could grow into Venerables or even Masters of Laws. That would be enough to make them extremely powerful even outside his world.

”Protect Heavenly Overseer Marquis well. Before long, my side will become the strongest faction.”

Yes. They had to protect Heavenly Overseer Marquis well. After all, he had separated from the dao of time. He did not need to kill Heavenly Overseer Marquis to release the restriction for his subordinates.

Thus, Heavenly Overseer Marquis must be protected. As long as Heavenly Overseer Marquis lived, his faction would slowly grow into the strongest faction.

Looking at everyone, he did a short calculation and lamented, ”It has been more than a month since I left the Human Realm.”

So long had passed. Time had flown by before he knew it. To the side, Fat Ball looked at Su Yu in confusion. Was one month...a long time? He had spent over a hundred thousand years gardening.

Why was Su Yu talking like a month was a very long time?
