Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 2204: Su Yu’s Fury (2)

Su Yu did not intend to let South Suppression Marquis into the Celestial Chasm Realm lest it create unnecessary troubles. All his people were missing from the Celestial Chasm Realm. What if South Suppression Marquis grew suspicious and told Hundred Battle King about it? Speaking of, why was that guy looking for him?

Yue Luo and Yue Xiao should have reached them by now, right? Was that guy here to pick a fight with him? But in that case, Hundred Battle King should be making an appearance personally. Whatever. It didn’t matter.

Su Yu said, ”I’ll leave through the mansion entrance. I can’t be bothered to take the long route through the Death Realm.”

In short, he was going to move through Martial Emperor’s body. This time, Martial Emperor did not protest. He wanted to get this done as soon as possible. His acupoints were all being used as the entrances of the mansion.

Before long, Su Yu and his people entered Martial Emperor’s body, stepped into the acupoints, and appeared in the Sea of Stars.

***

Myriad Realms.

Sea of Stars.

The winds were rising, the clouds were scudding, and the sea was raging.

Originally, the nearest city to the mansion was Grandstar City. When it vanished, the people of the nine realms nearly cried in joy. Previously, they had attempted to recreate their island several times. However, they had failed each time due to Su Yu.

With Su Yu’s withdrawal and Hundred Battle King’s non-interference, the people of the nine realms started working hard to recreate their island.

The realm entrances of the nine realms were located near each other as they were all part of the same island previously. Unfortunately, the original island had been destroyed because of the mean Su Yu.

At the moment, the various powerhouses of the nine realms were working busily all over the island. They were rebuilding their various cities joyfully. One of them said in excitement, ”The rebuilding will be completed in a few days! We can finally return out here!”

Soon.

The job would be completed in a few days. In fact, they had started working right after Su Yu’s departure. They had been working very hard for two whole months. This was quite a massive project, considering the number of powerhouses involved and the time it took. Thank the heavens that Su Yu was gone. May he never return.

Suddenly, a Sunmoon stared into the distance and muttered doubtfully, ”Is a new tide coming? This isn’t right. The previous tide isn’t even that long ago.”

A tide would come every ten years.

The arrival of each tide would open the Luminous Domain Mansion. The previous tide had arrived not long ago, and it was during that time that the Myriad Realms underwent massive changes.

It had only been a year or so since then. The next tide shouldn’t be arriving anytime soon.

”If it’s a tide, it’s a tide. The Myriad Realms have changed massively. Who knows what’s going on nowadays? It will only be a slightly bigger wave. It won’t affect us much.”

”True.”

They chatted without worry. A so-called tide was basically a bigger wave. It might even wash some treasures over. Thus, it could be a good thing for them. Recently, things had calmed significantly in the Allheaven Battlefield as the number of top powerhouses had dropped massively.

Even if the Luminous Domain Mansion were to open, it was likely that not many people would bother to come. With their proximity to the mansion, those of the nine realms might benefit from this. But for some reason, the incoming tide seemed to be growing in intensity.

The so-called tide was actually the circulation of Martial Emperor’s cultivation method. In the past, it had always happened automatically. Thus, a cycle would be completed every ten years, releasing enough source qi to create a tide on the sea.

Now that Martial Emperor was actively circulating to transfer Su Yu’s group out, the resulting tide would naturally be much more violent.

***

Su Yu was unconcerned about that.

Once again, he set his eyes on the Heaven Gate outside the mansion. That was Martial Emperor’s Heaven Gate.

The gate had stood on the Sea of Stars for countless years. It represented the Luminous Domain Mansion, the biggest treasure vault of the Myriad Realms. But after today, it might be gone.

Martial Emperor’s slightly agitated voice rang out, ”Go! Scatter the power of laws!”

His consciousness had awakened fully, but he was still subjected to a dao suppression. Something was still preventing him from breaking free. Su Yu looked up with his Heaven Gate open. He could see the power of laws filling the sky like a net, keeping the entire Allheaven Battlefield locked.

”Allheaven Battlefield...” Su Yu muttered to himself.

It was time to reconnect the Upper and Lower Realms, kickstarting the final conflict of this epoch. A final conflict would arrive about every ten thousand years. But only six thousand years had passed before the final conflict of the previous epoch. Each time, the opening of the connection between the Upper and Lower Realms would signal the start of the final conflict.

Each final conflict would end with the death of the human lord of the epoch. At the time, the Allheaven Battlefield would seal itself off, ending the conflict and epoch.

”The death of each human lord will seal the Allheaven Battlefield.”

Su Yu continued muttering to himself. As he revisited this topic, he seemed to understand even more than before. The Allheaven Battlefield would only seal itself with the death of a human lord. What did that signify?

Su Yu had always known that the Allheaven Battlefield was built by humanity. The death of a human lord would result in the decline of humanity’s fortune. In response, the Allheaven Battlefield would seal itself. Was this a form of protection for humanity?

Clearly, Human Emperor and his people had put much thought into the design of the Allheaven Battlefield. Su Yu already had a clear idea as to how the Allheaven Battlefield worked. He inhaled deeply as one token after another appeared before him.

Numerous figures manifested above these tokens. Immortals, devils, divines, dragons... These were the tokens forged by the Emperors of the myriad races back then. These tokens represented their will. The wind turned violent, and the clouds churned.

The sea grew more violent. Su Yu could sense the existence of some people not far away, but he couldn’t be bothered to do anything about them. The people of the nine realms were seemingly trying to recreate their island.

Did they have too much free time? When Martial Emperor broke free, the island would be destroyed yet again. Right at that moment, someone started approaching. It was South Suppression Marquis.

***

South Suppression Marquis couldn’t resist looking up at the sky as well. His face turned solemn. Su Yu had sent him a message through Heavenbridge Marquis to meet here. Was this a sign that Su Yu was returning from the Death Realm? Was he planning to return to the Human Realm as well?

With numerous thoughts in mind, South Suppression Marquis continued forward. Before long, the Heaven Gate entered his vision. He saw Su Yu, and he also saw the numerous tokens floating before Su Yu.

Assembly tokens.

”Human Lord Su!”

South Suppression Marquis bowed. Su Yu turned around and smiled, ”South Suppression, it’s not a good sign for you to be here.”

South Suppression Marquis’ face turned even more solemn. What was the meaning of that?

”South Suppression. Your life sure is hard.”

Su Yu said, ”Tell me. Why are you here?”

”Human Lord, I’m here on behalf of His Majesty the Hundred Battle King.”

”Hundred Battle?” Su Yu was all smiles as he asked, ”You’re not here because of the matter involving Yue Luo and the others, right?”

”No, this is unrelated to them.” South Suppression Marquis hurriedly said, ”I’m here for—”

”Let’s wait. If you keep talking, Martial Emperor will lose his temper.”

An indistinct figure manifested in the air. It was none other than Martial Emperor.

He shot South Suppression Marquis an unfriendly gaze.

Piss off! Why was this guy delaying his freedom? Could this guy not see that they were busy doing something important here?

South Suppression Marquis’ heart thumped as he asked, ”Human Lord, what are you...”

”Reconnecting the Upper and Lower Realms.”

South Suppression Marquis was alarmed. ”Reconnecting the two realms? This...”

”Is there a problem with that?”

South Suppression Marquis explained, ”This will allow everyone to freely move between the two realms. The Human Realm lacks the suppressive force. This won’t be a good thing for humanity. Please reconsider, Human Lord.”

Su Yu laughed. ”Don’t worry, it won’t make much difference. This will give Hundred Battle a chance to showcase himself, right? There is no need for him to hide all the time. Is he supposed to save humanity by hiding away forever?”

Su Yu shook his head, ”Is he not tired of all that hiding? Both the myriad races and I need to keep watching our backs with him hiding in the dark. This is getting quite annoying. Tell Hundred Battle that I don’t need him to do much. Just keep an eye on the myriad races and the two chaos beasts. That is something he is capable of doing. I don’t even need him to fight any battles. Just keep an eye on them. I will deal with the sinned lineage.”

This was Su Yu’s plan.

Su Yu didn’t even need Hundred Battle King to fight anymore. Since the guy enjoyed hiding, sure. He could stay passive. He only needed to keep the myriad races deterred. Su Yu was quite confident in his chances against the two Masters of Laws with his own people.

It was a pity that Hundred Battle King was unwilling to work with them. If Hundred Battle King could attack the myriad races while Su Yu attacked the sinned lineage, they would be able to pacify the Myriad Realms speedily.

Su Yu wouldn’t even mind handing the entire Myriad Realms to Hundred Battle King after that. He would take his people upstream and join the battle there. As for when he would return from that battle, it was a matter for the future.

Unfortunately, Hundred Battle King loved hiding too much. Annoyed, Su Yu no longer considered cooperating with him. In fact, it wasn’t a bad thing to leave the Myriad Realms in Hundred Battle King’s hands after the victory. At the very least, Hundred Battle King would not harm humanity.

Su Yu would be able to leave without worry.

While Su Yu was contemplating all that, South Suppression Marquis said, ”I heard about your recent major victory in the Upper Realm, Human Lord.”

”Did you learn this from Yue Luo?”

Martial Emperor snapped, ”Su Yu, why are you wasting your time with this bug? Stop being so annoying!”

South Suppression Marquis ignored the outburst and said, ”Human Lord, His Majesty hopes that you can spare Control King’s lineage for now. We can join hands and eliminate the myriad races before considering Control King’s lineage.”

Su Yu thought about it and smiled, ”I’m not necessarily opposed to that. Is he really willing to fight? If he is, I can agree to that.”

Hundred Battle King was offering to fight the myriad races? That was a good thing!

Su Yu said, ”How about this? I won’t need much from him. Just stop five Venerables for me. That will be enough for me to wipe out the myriad races. He doesn’t even need to fight them personally. Isn’t this a generous offer?”

Su Yu did not mind attacking the myriad races first.

How surprising. Was South Suppression Marquis really here to ask for cooperation?

Su Yu was pleasantly surprised. ”Has Hundred Battle finally thought things through? Both the myriad races and sinned lineage are merely a minor disease. The bigger trouble is yet to come. It’s not a good idea to let matters here drag on. With the Myriad Realms pacified, I will be able to leave and help Human Emperor out with his battle.

”We can’t be waiting around for Human Emperor to be kicked back into the Myriad Realms, right? That would signify a defeat on their side. Instead, we need to join their battle and help them make a comeback. That would be a lot more satisfying.”

South Suppression Marquis laughed in spite of himself, but soon, a sense of loss enveloped him.

Su Yu was actually willing to work with them. He was even willing to do the heavy lifting. He only needed Hundred Battle King to stop five Venerables and he would do the rest of the job. First, he would wipe out the myriad races. And then, he could proceed to eliminate Control King’s lineage.

He was even willing to leave the Myriad Realms in Hundred Battle King’s hands. He would leave with his people to help Human Emperor. In South Suppression Marquis’ opinion, this was an extremely generous offer. Clearly, Su Yu did not intend to start a war against Hundred Battle King.

”Human Lord...are you not going to retake the Human Realm?”
