Tribulation of Myriad Races

Divine Pseudo Emperor declared coldly, ”We have long known about the identities of the traitors. We have merely been unwilling to act against you. As long as you’re willing to repent, we’ll be willing to forget the past. We will kill one as a warning. The rest of you should stop now, and we’ll spare you.”

Boom!

The burning Master of Law wailed in pain. In the blink of an eye, his dao collapsed. The flames originated from the Devil Pseudo Emperor’s fire dao. It was too powerful to be stopped.

A seed of this dao had long been planted within the undercover’s body and dao. In mere moments, the Master of Law was burned into nothingness. His dao shook, and his wail continued reverberating in the air. The expressions of the others changed drastically.

They had been found out long ago. A seed had been planted. The moment the betrayal happened, that person was killed to warn the others. Were similar seeds planted in the others? Who could be sure? Perhaps the dead undercover was the only one they knew about. Maybe.

Immortal Pseudo Emperor’s indifferent voice rang out, ”Let this be the end of that. The ones who have yet to step forth, you may repent or choose a different path. We are willing to spare you so long as you don’t act against us. As for the ones who have acted, step aside and stop fighting, or start killing the humans to atone. If you do that, we’re willing to forget the past as well.”

Human Emperor’s ploy had been dismantled easily. It wasn’t like nobody had expected such a ploy from him. They were merely unsure about the identities of the spies. However, they only needed to find one. By killing one, the others would grow fearful.

Human Emperor sighed, ”You found out.”

”Human Emperor, it has been so many years. How can we remain completely clueless?”

Immortal Pseudo Emperor smiled. That wouldn’t be possible. In any case, there weren’t too many people here. It was far too easy for them to keep an eye on everyone. Any movement could be detected easily.

In a twist of fate, the first Master of Law to die in this battle was a part of the myriad races, also someone serving the Human Emperor. One could say that this was a loss on Human Emperor’s side.

With another sigh, Human Emperor said, ”So be it. The rest of you can step aside for now. If I lose, you may surrender. If I win, I’ll still consider you the contributors of this battle.”

He was talking to the ones who had exposed themselves. Nobody could be sure if these people had been discovered previously. Rather than risking losing a few more of them and scaring the others from doing more, it was better for them to step aside.

Immortal Pseudo Emperor and the others sneered. What other tricks did he have? Bring it on!

”Don’t bother looking at me like that. After so many years, I don’t have too many tricks left.” Human Emperor smiled. Next, he roared, ”And I don’t need to resort to trickery. My very presence is enough to secure victory.”

Boom!

At that, his body shone brightly. Its eyes snapped open. Boom!

With a rumble, the body shot forth before throwing a punch. Once again, the river stopped flowing. A Master of Law was blasted apart. Even his dao collapsed. The eyes of the body were filled with killing intent.

”Do you think I can’t control my body when it’s so near? Fools!”

The distance was near enough for him to exercise some control over his body.

The expressions of the three pseudo emperors changed. Devil Pseudo Emperor roared urgently, ”Nether Pseudo Emperor, push him back!”

The body had gotten too near. What was this?

Hearing that, Nether Pseudo Emperor’s expression changed. A trap might be waiting further ahead. After some hesitation, he transmitted, ”I need more people here. Switch your focus from the other humans to Human Emperor’s body.”

He needed assistance. There might really be a trap ahead of him. At his request, about seven or eight powerhouses flew over. Nether Pseudo Emperor’s confidence grew. With this, the number of Masters of Laws on his side had reached thirty. This should be enough.

Essentially, a quarter of their forces were currently here. That should be enough to handle Human Emperor’s body so long as they kept it away from Human Emperor’s sea of willpower.

***

Meanwhile, Su Yu’s eyes were gleaming. How surprising that Human Emperor could still control his body. Under his control, his body was able to demonstrate an entirely different level of prowess. In that case, the myriad races would no longer dare to allow his body to go further.

”I see.”

Understanding dawned on Su Yu. With this, Nether Pseudo Emperor would be forced to go further away from the front lines. But that would ensure that they would reach Su Yu’s ambush point.

”The spies are merely a distraction. The true trump card is still Human Emperor’s strength.”

Like him, Human Emperor would ultimately rely on himself. He was confident the myriad races wouldn’t dare to allow his body to go near his sea of willpower. The moment that happened, many would die.

Thus, the myriad races would be force to step on the trap. A trap was scary, but could a trap be scarier than Human Emperor himself? That was Nether Pseudo Emperor’s thought.

And thus, when the reinforcements arrived, Nether Pseudo Emperor said, ”There might be a trap ahead of us. Stay cautious.”

Boom!

And then, they started bombarding Human Emperor’s body from afar, pushing it back repeatedly. As it was pushed back, even the killing intent in its eyes started fading. Everyone was overjoyed to see that. Clearly, Human Emperor’s control over the body would drop the further it was pushed.

This was good for them!

As of that moment, Nether Pseudo Emperor’s group had finally stepped onto Su Yu’s ambush point. A few of them had yet to attack. Rather, they were constantly scanning their surroundings cautiously.

They believed that humanity did not have more powerhouses to spare, but they still needed to be on high alert.

”Kill!”

Boom!

The further Human Emperor’s body was pushed, the weaker it became. Everyone started laughing. As for Nether Pseudo Emperor, he was paying constant attention to their surroundings. Just what other trump card did humanity have?

That show of strength by Human Emperor earlier was clearly done to push them further away from the front lines. Was Human Emperor so confident in his trap? What manner of trap could handle a group with so many powerhouses?

They continued bombarding Human Emperor’s body. As for Su Yu, there was no longer any need for him to keep hiding.

It was time.

”After so many years, even the trash from back then are starting to grow confident.”

A laugh rang out.

Instantly, Nether Pseudo Emperor shivered.

A very familiar voice.

Su Yu had heard Culture King’s voice before.

And then, a white silhouette appeared. Nobody could see the face of the newcomer clearly, but everyone reacted strongly to it.

”Impossible!”

Nether Pseudo Emperor was greatly alarmed. Culture King!

He was back!

Right at that moment, Martial Emperor appeared behind Su Yu. With his teeth bared, he said, ”Finally, I can have some fun!”

”Martial King!’

Extreme shock rippled through the crowd.

Culture King and Martial King were back.

Everyone was shaking.

”Im...impossible!”

Nether Pseudo Emperor couldn’t believe it. If even Nether Pseudo Emperor was reacting so strongly, it was obvious that those behind him would not be able to stay calm. Culture King and Martial King?

Yes.

It was them!

The myriad races were not the only ones with strong reactions. Far away, Martial Suppression King roared, ”Bastard! So you do know your way back!”

”Husband!”

”My dear!”

”Culture King!”

”Second Brother Wen!”

Numerous excited voices rang out.

They were back! Two of the Four Cardinal Kings who had played a critical role in their previous conquest had returned. Culture King, in particular, was the most outstanding of the four.

Everyone grew excited. The various humans cheered. The two were none other than Culture King and Martial King. They had really returned!

”Hahaha! Your Majesty, what is there to fear with Big Brother Wen back?”

On humanity’s side, all fear evaporated. No danger was too dangerous with Culture King around. As for the myriad races, they sank into despair. How could this be? The two were supposed to be stuck inside the Heaven Gate! How were they back?

That shouldn’t be possible. Culture King was simply too strong. Back then, he had personally conquered numerous powerful realms.

As for Martial King, he was too ruthless. Back then, he had slaughtered countless myriad race powerhouses. The appearance of the two was enough to cause even the Pseudo Emperors of the divines, devils, and immortals to pale.

This was getting troublesome. This was getting very troublesome. Back then, Culture King was essentially unrivalled. How strong would he be now? His reputation was simply too great.

Su Yu was finally able to experience the impact of Culture King’s prestige. His face was still indistinct, but as he smiled, nobody doubted that he was Culture King.

Definitely!

Those white robes, that temperament, and that smile...who could he be if not Culture King? As Su Yu took a step forward, the thirty Masters of Laws before him stepped back instinctively.

The sight of that was enough to shock even Su Yu. Were they really so scared of Culture King? Was Culture King really that scary?

Everyone was fully focused on him. Even the ones in charge of scanning their surroundings had all their attention on him. What was the point of scanning for the trap when they already knew what the trap was?

The trap was Culture King’s return. And Martial King’s return. That was enough. No wonder. No wonder Human Emperor found the courage to start a decisive battle.

Right at that moment, Human Emperor roared with laughter, ”You unreliable bastards! You’re finally back! Hahaha! My friends, victory is already ours!”

From his reaction, the myriad races became even more certain of the two’s identities. Inwardly, Human Emperor was greatly impressed. In fact, if he weren’t aware that Su Yu was there, he would have believed that this was Culture King as well.

This trick...was way too useful. This was more than a mere disguise. The disguise itself mattered a lot.

Back then, many claimed that Culture King was actually stronger than Human Emperor. However, he loved his freedom too much. Thus, Human Emperor was allowed to hold the leadership. Many believed this, including the myriad races.

Many believed that he was stronger than Human Emperor. And now, the supreme being and the rumored number one under the heavens was back. Who could remain fearless before him?
