Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 968: Eternal Grudge (3)

"Me?"

"Yes."

The member of the Shadow Guard said nothing and flew over. As for Su Yu, he took out a drop of blood and dripped it on the dot of light before proceeding to construct a new body. In the blink of an eye, a body appeared. It was very weak.

It only had the strength of the Great Strength Realm. In a place like this, that was terrifyingly weak.

Su Yu asked, "Senior, do you know the Source Soul Acupoint Opening Art?"

"Yeah." The expert replied instinctively.

Su Yu said, "Activate the art and start opening acupoints."

The expert was quite surprised, but he said nothing and did as told. As for Su Yu, he took out a large clump of heavenly source qi and wrapped it around the expert.

"Senior, I\'ll teach you the 36-Forged Heavenly Dipper Art. You can use it to reforge your body. As for your acupoints, heavenly source qi is the best supplement for opening more acupoints."

The expert didn\'t know what to say. He hurriedly started the body forging process. The heavenly source qi given by Su Yu felt different from the regular ambient heavenly source qi. It was mild and gentle, greatly similar to the heavenly source qi one would get from consuming heavenly source fruits.

One portion of heavenly source qi was consumed, followed by two portions, three portions, four portions...

In the blink of an eye, more than ten portions were used.

The drain was so massive even the expert was alarmed. He said, "This is enough. I can slowly cultivate when I\'m back at the Human Realm."

Not even Great Ming could take out so many heavenly source fruits at once after many years of accumulation. Meanwhile, he had exhausted more than ten portions in the blink of an eye to open only sixty acupoints.

If he wanted to complete his acupoint opening process, he needed at least ten more portions. But Su Yu ignored the expert and took out even more heavenly source qi. Since he had already decided to help, would he care about a tiny bit of heavenly source qi?

How long would this person take to reach his previous height without his help? He did not like to owe anyone anything. Thus, he continued supplying the expert with heavenly source qi.

The expert didn\'t know what to do. He could only continue with it. After consuming about thirty portions of heavenly source qi, his entire body shook. He had finally opened all the acupoints outlined by the Source Soul Acupoint Opening Art.

This was so fast it was unbelievable. And the price for that? Around thirty heavenly source fruits. Just for a ninth-stage Great Strength cultivation.

"Continue. Open the acupoints of the Double Wu Acupoint Fusion Art."

"No, no, this is enough. Really..."

"Listen to me." Su Yu roared, "Stop wasting time. That guy will die soon. Your physical body is still too weak. How are you supposed to run later? A Sunmoon can carry you and run, but your body is too weak to even withstand the kind of speed a Sunmoon is capable of."

Helpless, the expert could only continue opening acupoints.

Double Wu Acupoint Fusion Art.

Su Yu continued supplying the expert with a large amount of heavenly source qi. And in the blink of an eye, about seven or eight portions were consumed to open all the acupoints of the Double Wu Acupoint Fusion Art.

The expert\'s heart ached at the thought of wasting heavenly source qi for something like this. Su Yu should have handed him the heavenly source qi instead. He could return and slowly cultivate instead of wasting so much heavenly source qi here. How wasteful!

But Su Yu didn\'t even give the expert a chance to speak. He continued forcing the expert to cultivate.

Acupoint opening.

Acupoint fusion.

With both arts fully cultivated, it wouldn\'t take this expert long to enter the Infinite Strength Realm. With his experience as an ex-Sunmoon and the strength of his sea of willpower, he would be able to return to his previous height in no time.

After helping the expert open a few more acupoints, Su Yu took out a storage ring and handed it over.

"You can find the 36-Forged Heavenly Dipper Art in it. You can also choose to open more acupoints and cultivate some top-tier heaven-grade arts. There are a few such arts in it. There are also a hundred heavenly source fruits in it. I wish you luck in rebuilding your body to the Sunmoon Realm yet again."

The expert stared blankly, not knowing what he could even say.

What?

A hundred?

Did this kid rob the heavenly source fruit trees of the immortals, divines, and devils?

At that moment, yet another moon fell with a rumble.

Ye Hongyan hurriedly put the corpse away and yelled, "What are you waiting for? Run! Hurry up!"

Umbra flew over. First, he shot Su Yu a glance. Then, he looked at the injured Sunmoon. Instantly, he was stunned. "Sixth, you...reached the Infinite Strength Realm?"

He was too busy fighting previously to pay attention to what was happening here. Didn\'t this person lose his body earlier? How was he at the Infinite Strength Realm already? Was his body fine, after all? But if his body was fine, he wouldn\'t be at the mere Infinite Strength Realm. What was going on?

Mo He was dead. They had to run as Invincibles might start appearing soon.

Su Yu wasted no time and said, "Seniors, please leave. I\'m leaving as well."

"Hmm?" Umbra hurriedly asked, "Are you not coming with us?"

"No." Su Yu gnashed his teeth, "If I return now, the myriad races will force humanity to hand me over. I\'m not scared of that. I believe Prefect Zhu won\'t do so either. But that will attract hostility toward Great Ming, and some of the hostility will even come from human Invincibles. I don\'t want to burden anyone. I\'ll continue roaming the Allheaven Battlefield.

"By returning, my fate will fall into the grasp of those Invincibles. If I don\'t return, even if I have to die, my fate will remain firmly within my grasp. I would rather die grasping my fate than die without control of my fate."

Su Yu cupped his hands, "Thank you, Seniors. Thank you, Great Ming. Thank you, Prefect Zhu. The mountains are high and the journey is long. I wish you a pleasant journey. I will return. But not now."

"Farewell."

Leaving that final word behind, Su Yu turned into wind and vanished.

Time for him to leave.

He would return, but not now. If he returned now, the myriad races would start pushing the human race to hand him over. Should they agree? The Invincibles would be placed in a difficult spot.

Great Ming would also be placed in a difficult spot. What was the point? Why hand his fate to the hands of others? He was better off drifting about the Allheaven Battlefield. He would return. Just not now.

Su Yu was gone.

Ye Hongyan and the others stared at his departing figure silently. With a sigh, Ye Hongyan clenched his teeth and said, "Let\'s go. Kill all the spectators while we\'re at it. He\'s right. If he returns now, things might be even more difficult. If the Invincibles agree to hand him over, not even Great Ming can protect him. Let\'s go."

A genius of such a level yet there wasn\'t even an assurance that humanity would protect him.

He was too good at stirring trouble. This incident would shock the various realms and the myriad races. He was only a Cloudbreach, yet he had caused dozens of Sunmoons to die on top of dozens of young geniuses from various races. The myriad races would not be able to sleep well before killing him.

Umbra had a look of struggle on his face. After a moment, he roared furiously and flickered in all directions, instantly killing the hidden spectators in the area.

The human Sunmoons started searching the area.

The Mountainseas of the Shadow Guard had killed a lot of people earlier, but some remained. In fact, Umbra even managed to capture a masked expert in white. He crushed the masked expert to death before the masked individual could even speak.

That was a member of the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion. He did not care. After killing the masked individual, he released his source qi, eliminating all traces of combat in the area, and leaving no clues behind.

Ye Hongyan and the others were doing the same. A large number of hidden individuals were killed.

After a short moment, they reconvened.

Taking out a jade talisman, Ye Hongyan said, "Leave first. I\'ll shake up the time and space in the area, making it difficult for even Invincibles to rewind time here."

The Shadow Guard said nothing. Carrying the injured Sunmoon with them, they left rapidly.

While they were on their way here, they were prepared to die. But instead, they had killed two high-stage Sunmoons before leaving. Apart from a Sunmoon who had lost his body, they had suffered no other losses. The Sunmoon in question didn\'t even look sorrowful at losing his body.

While Umbra was carrying him, he whispered, "Commander, Su Yu gave me a hundred heavenly source fruits and multiple heaven-grade cultivation methods. He told me to start mending my body with these things after returning. He also fed me dozens of heavenly source fruits earlier. I never knew that cultivation can actually be so easy..."

Umbra was left speechless.

What the fuck was that?

Was this bastard actually showing off?

"Garbage. There were seven of you against one enemy yet you still managed to lose your body. Remember to share some of those things with me later..."

That was too luxurious. He was feeling quite jealous. Also, he was feeling quite sad. The Shadow Guard...had not made their name in the Allheaven Battlefield. His grand aspirations had not been achieved.

Also, why was this damn bastard still so happy after losing his body? Couldn\'t he at least pretend to be sad? Why was he so proud after losing his body?

Over a hundred heavenly source fruits had been wasted just like that. This was madness. He swore to not let the remaining hundred heavenly source fruits be used in such a wasteful manner.

In the blink of an eye, they vanished into the horizon.

After they left, Ye Hongyan roared and tossed a jade talisman up. Space started shaking and time was thrown into disarray. With this, even Invincibles would find it hard to find any clues of Su Yu\'s whereabouts from this place.

Su Yu had still been too careless. The brat did not know that Invincibles could actually trace his escape route through time rewind.

Ye Hongyan was completely unaware that, Su Yu, who was initially moving west, had switched to north not long after leaving the area. Additionally, he was constantly eliminating all traces of his presence with every step he took.

He had never underestimated the Invincibles. Even the items he had obtained from his dead opponents would all be discarded without hesitation if they looked valuable. He would not give any expert a chance to track his location through these items.

In fact, he had either thrown or destroyed most of his spoils of war, keeping only some corpses and his own items on him. Not even the corpses would stay with him for long. As he fled, he started extracting the blood essence of these corpses before burning the corpses to nothingness as well.

He did not need all those things. Even with the blood essence extracted, the corpses were still valuable. But he discarded them without any hesitation. Even the blood essence was instantly used to remove the death qi in his body.

As for the Sunmoon corpses, he still couldn\'t deal with them. Thus, he decided to find a good location to hide them all instead. He would come back for these corpses in the future. Before long, he took out a storage ring.

After looking around, he noted that he was near the Skyrend Valley again. He switched direction and moved to the Skyrend Valley. Inside the valley, he dug a hole and buried the storage ring in it. All the things he couldn\'t handle yet were stored inside that ring.

The corpses of the two Sunmoons he killed and the corpses of some peak Mountainseas were stuffed into the storage ring alongside the treasures he had obtained from Jiu Xuan, An Mintian, and the other geniuses.

He would come for them in the future. If someone else discovered this stash, so be it. He was too cautious to carry these things on him.

Then, he started moving in the central sector\'s direction. The Sea of Stars was there, and the sector was split among the various demonic races. Hiding himself would be much easier there due to the relatively higher level of chaos in that territory.

He did not attempt to contact Liu Wenyan. They had previously agreed that after they were done killing, they would flee separately. Liu Wenyan himself said that he would take care of himself. There was no need for Su Yu to worry about him.

A large amount of heavenearth profound light had gathered in Su Yu\'s body. Thus, he also needed to look for a suitable place to cultivate in peace.

As for the fates of the people trapped in the ancient city, it was no longer his business.

***

After the departure of Su Yu and others, a few more Sunmoons perished in the ancient city.

All in all, twenty-one Sunmoons had arrived, with six of them being high-stage Sunmoons.

Fourteen of them had perished. Only seven Sunmoons were left alive in the city.

The four high-stage Sunmoons were still alive. But three of them were in imminent danger. Ming He, in particular, was in very bad shape. Even her mind was starting to grow hazy. Su Yu had dealt her a heavy blow with two Sunmoon characters as the price.

A single incident had taken the lives of fourteen Sunmoons.

At the moment, the Sunmoons were gathered within a single building. Outside the building, over thirty Sunmoon death spirits were madly attacking. The area was flooded in so much death qi not even the high-stage Sunmoons could avoid their bodies from rotting away.

Desperation.

Despair.

Ming He, Long Dou, and the others felt nothing but despair.

This was supposed to be an easy mission, but the two wastrels of the multiple character faction had actually destroyed Ye Batian\'s characters to kill Sunmoons and flood the city with Sunmoon death spirits.

At this point, not even Invincibles could guarantee their survival anymore.

"SU YU!"

Every single one of them would yell out that name with boundless hatred before dying.

Su Yu, the hateful bastard! That bastard was even more murderous than Ye Batian and Xia Longwu. To kill them, he had actually destroyed Ye Batian\'s characters. Those were the characters that could push their owner to the Invincible Realm!

Nobody else would be willing to do something like that. Killing them wasn\'t even the only option Su Yu could take. He could have escaped silently. In fact, they suspected that he had already left earlier before returning to generate this mess for them.

Liu Wenyan\'s appearance was the proof of that.

In truth, Su Yu had left the city earlier. During his absence, he visited Liu Wenyan to get his hands on Ye Batian\'s characters. Just how much did he need to hate them to do something like that?

Long Dou and the others couldn\'t understand that decision. He had successfully escaped. Why return? Was such a big price to kill them really worth it?

Ming He was still coughing blood continuously. At this point, her blood had turned completely black.

With a mournful tone, she said, "Su Yu must die! He is more ruthless than Xia Longwu. He is also much more talented. If he survives, his ascension to the Eternal Realm will be the beginning of the calamity of the myriad races."

This was the tribulation of the myriad races.

That human was too murderous, to the point even Ming He was fearful of him. He could escape, but instead, he had opted to destroy two of Ye Batian\'s characters just to deal her a serious injury. He even took the risk of delaying his escape for a slight moment just to swing his blade at her one last time. If someone so ruthless was allowed to survive, disaster would fall upon them.

When she met Su Yu\'s gaze, she only saw coldness and hatred. Nothing else. Those were the sole emotions he harbored toward them. That human must die!

After coughing yet another mouthful of black blood, Ming He started regretting her actions. She...would not be able to survive this. Su Yu was too crazy. Two Sunmoon characters just to injure her. Was that worth it?

She turned to face Dao Cheng, who was also seriously injured. Clenching her teeth, she sent a voice transmission, "I can\'t last much longer. When the time comes, kill me. Avenge me. Kill that human!"

Intense emotions undulated from Dao Cheng\'s eyes.

"Kill me!" Ming He continued speaking through voice transmission, "Dao Cheng, you must kill him. If he doesn\'t die, you will die in his hands. I can only see oceans of blood and mountains of corpses in his future...Kill me! Strengthen yourself! For me, for Jiu Xuan...avenge us!"

After saying that, she started coughing blood again, filling the ground with black blood.

Grief welled in Dao Cheng\'s eyes. This was Ming He. A seventh-stage Sunmoon. She could be considered half his teacher. His grandfather would often be too busy to teach him, so instead, this disciple of his grandfather, Ming He, would take on the task of teaching him instead. But now, she was telling him to kill her with his own hands.

"Teacher..."

He did not feel anything when killing Silver Armor. But Ming He was different. He didn\'t want to do this. Despair seeped in.

Ming He shouted through voice transmission, "Hurry up! The stronger I am when you kill me, the bigger the reward will be. Without this reward, how can you compete against the others? You are incomparable to Mo Duona. You are incomparable to Zhan Wushuang. You are incomparable to Xuan Wuji. You are incomparable to Su Yu. Without killing me, you will never be able to avenge us."

Clenching his teeth, Dao Cheng threw a punch at Ming He\'s head, cracking the head apart.

Punch after punch was thrown. The people around them were completely stunned. As for Dao Cheng, he continued punching, staining his fist and body with blood as madness crept into his eyes.

Ming He did not resist. She took all the punches, allowing Dao Cheng to end her life.

Rumble!

Finally, a massive moon fell from the sky.

"Ahhhhhhh!"

A boundlessly mournful roar filled the city.

With Ming He\'s corpse in his arms, he roared. He had killed his teacher with his own hands.

"SU YU!"

Su Yu! The killer of his beloved! The culprit who had forced him to kill his teacher with his own hands! This grudge would stay for eternity!

Ming He of the immortals had perished.
