Tribulation of Myriad Races

Realm entrance, Allheaven Battlefield.

Someone was dead in the very first group. Even so, apart from expressing some regret for that unlucky fellow, most people moved on quickly. Before long, the second group formed. This time, there were elders in the group.

Su Yu thought he saw First Profound too…well, he wasn’t sure. He couldn’t recognize First Profound anymore with a bunch of faceless elders mixed together. It was also inappropriate for him to go for a deeper scan to determine if that was his elder.

Well, he could only wish First Profound luck.

Su Yu prayed with near zero sincerity for First Profound’s safety. If First Profound died and he became the new elder, it wouldn’t be that bad. But if a new elder was assigned above him instead, that would be quite troublesome.

Soon, the second group stepped through the realm entrance. Group after group moved through the entrance.

And before long, it was Su Yu’s turn.

When the ten reached the realm entrance, a faceless elder said, “Jump.”

Su Yu clicked his tongue with disapproval. A proper realm entrance could be entered by simply walking through it. Meanwhile, they had to jump through this entrance. Sure enough, lawful entry and illegal entry were different.

With that thought, Su Yu jumped into the realm entrance.

***

The world spun.

Su Yu could feel the realm barrier squeezing his entire body. If it wasn’t for this unstable tunnel, the realm barrier would have probably crushed him. Even with his incredibly powerful physical body, he was feeling slightly uncomfortable.

How were those Skysoars supposed to survive this? After all, a large number of gray masks would be sent into the Human Realm as well. With how weak they were, wouldn’t they end up crushed by the realm barrier?

With that question in his mind, he was brought into the Human Realm. His vision blurred before his surroundings lit up again. He had arrived.

The moment Su Yu opened his eyes, he was stunned. All around him, numerous auras erupted and shot toward him.

After a momentary stun, he looked down.

And he blanked out again. This…was so familiar. Wasn’t this…Nanyuan? Holy shit! Was he lucky or unlucky?

Nanyuan!

He had actually been sent to Nanyuan!

Several Sunmoon auras approached him. A voice rang out, “Who are you? Martial Dragon Guard, capture or kill the trespasser!”

“A white mask of the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion!”

Looking at the experts charging his way, Su Yu shouted, “Profound Nine of Heavenly Hunt Pavilion’s Profound Department, here to do business. I bear you no ill will. If you need anything, feel free to contact me. I’m Profound Nine!”

Right after saying that, he vanished into thin air.

Since his presence was already known, there was no harm in doing some advertising. There seemed to be quite a lot of experts in Nanyuan. From his senses, there were also a lot of weaklings there, such as Skysoars, Cloudbreaches, and Mountainseas. Since when did Nanyuan become so popular?

There were even more people here than during his previous visit. It was clear that people from numerous powers were here. This was a good opportunity for him to advertise himself.

Whoosh!

A blade headed toward him. That was a familiar saber technique. It was the Sky Sundering Saber.

With a punch, Su Yu blasted the saber light apart and roared with laughter, “The Heavenly Hunt Pavilion has entered the Human Realm. There is nothing we can’t do or provide. We provide all manner of services. We are open to doing business with everyone. Information, assassination, security, and trade services. We provide them all.”

After blasting another attack apart, he vanished again. Whatever. This was enough. Just look at how terrified the people were. He should stop messing with them.

While moving through space, he was feeling quite pleased. He was actually transported to Nanyuan. This was not bad at all. As a region bordering both Great Xia and Great Ming, there wasn’t much danger for him here.

The person in charge of the place was a Sunmoon. The one who had attacked him with a saber was an early Sunmoon, and the attack had been launched from afar. Thus, it wasn’t able to do much to him.

It was time for him to run. He had to find a good hiding place and settle down before deciding on what to do. He also needed to wait for his assignment. With his speed, he was gone before anyone knew it.

Numerous people inside Nanyuan looked up at the sky. Some had odd expressions while some looked confused. One of them asked, “Heavenly Hunt Pavilion? I think I heard that name before. Profound Nine…is that a code name or a proper name?”

“That person feels very strong. Even the Martial Dragon Guard’s commander failed to take them down.”

“The Heavenly Hunt Pavilion has actually entered the Human Realm? And they’re doing it with such great fanfare? Is that Profound Nine…courting death? Why are they acting so brazenly within Great Xia?”

“These people are even more detestable than the Myriad Race Cult.”

“Of course. But they’re also very dangerous.”

“…”

Those who had been to the Allheaven Battlefield proceeded to expel the doubts of the others.

Before long, the ones whose questions were answered sighed in admiration. Profound Nine…numerous people committed that name to memory. A white mask from Heavenly Hunt Pavilion’s Profound Department.

In the sky, the Sunmoon did not give chase. He had a solemn expression. He actually knew what Su Yu looked like, but he did not even suspect that the masked individual was Su Yu. He would never connect Su Yu with this masked individual.

After all, that masked individual had blasted his saber light apart easily. That was a powerful expert with the combat strength of a Sunmoon. How could someone like that be related to Su Yu?

He hurriedly sent a voice transmission, “A Heavenly Hunt Pavilion member has suddenly appeared above Nanyuan. White mask. Codenamed Profound Nine. Combat strength around first-stage Sunmoon. They have fled, but they might remain hidden within Great Xia.”

An update was promptly given to his superior. At the same moment, Su Yu was not the only Heavenly Hunt Pavilion member to appear within Great Xia and Great Ming.

Some were able to flee, some were captured, and some were killed.

***

Su Yu, who was in the middle of fleeing, suddenly noticed his tribulation character pulsing.

He was slightly stunned.

Danger?

He wasn’t stunned because he was shocked. Rather, his tribulation character was pulsing so intensely that his entire sea of willpower was trembling as well.

Sounds of laughter rang out right beside his ears, “Another big fish caught. My efforts of traveling so far by ripping space apart have been worth it…”

Su Yu was alarmed.

He could feel a massive hand appearing suddenly behind him. He hurriedly shouted, “Grandpa Zhu! Grandpa Xia!”

He didn’t know which Invincible this was, but he knew it was an Invincible.

And an Invincible in this area was probably Great Xia King or Great Ming King. The voice sounded somewhat familiar. He recalled hearing this voice in the ancient city. And these two Invincibles were there.

***

Behind Su Yu.

Great Ming King had appeared noiselessly before reaching out to grab Su Yu. As an Invincible, he could naturally see through Su Yu’s disguise. But which Invincible would waste their time scanning any random person they saw? And without a proper inspection, it wasn’t easy for even an Invincible to see through Su Yu’s disguise.

But just as he was about to capture Su Yu, he blanked out.

Calling him? Did he know this guy? His eyes lit up as he looked at Su Yu again. He only saw the back profile of this person, but it was clear this was a human.

He easily grabbed Su Yu like he was grabbing a little chick and turned Su Yu around. There was a mask on the face, but it didn’t matter. The mask couldn’t stop him.

As he focused…he saw a familiar face.

Then, he sensed the dense death qi in this person’s body. Once again, he blanked out.

Heavenly Hunt Pavilion’s Profound Nine? An equation took form in his mind.

Profound Nine = Su Yu?

He had heard the arrogant declaration of this person from afar. This was someone who had easily escaped a Sunmoon. A single punch of this person carried the might of a Sunmoon. That was why he had thought that this was a big fish.

A Sunmoon was qualified to be called a big fish.

But now…Su Yu?

Sunmoon Su Yu?

Great Ming King’s expression turned odd.

As for Su Yu, he was so terrified his entire face turned stiff. Holy shit! Holy shit! How did he encounter an Invincible right away? This was way too scary.

His mask instantly withdrew, revealing his face. The two gazed at each other silently.

After a long while, Su Yu swallowed and said, “Hi, Grandpa Zhu.”

“…”

Great Ming King was quite speechless. He once heard a rumor that a certain someone had claimed to be his adopted great-grandson. He finally had the chance to see this adopted great-grandson with his own eyes. With his hand still around Su Yu’s head, he sank into thought. Was this real or fake?

Su Yu, who was in an ancient city, had entered the Human Realm.

Su Yu, who he believed was dying, was actually energetic enough to enter the Human Realm. And join the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion. No, more importantly, Su Yu had left the ancient city. No, no, even more importantly, Su Yu had just arrogantly toyed with a Sunmoon before leaving in a carefree manner.

Was this really Su Yu?

Was he really so incredible?

Great Ming King tried to pinch Su Yu’s skin, but the look in his eyes changed again. At the first attempt, he was actually unable to properly pinch the solid skin.

When he used more force, Su Yu started feeling the pain from the pinch.

His heart trembled with fear. Meanwhile, Great Ming King’s heart was also thumping furiously. Holy shit!

This body…was way too strong.

This body was completely comparable to that of a Sunmoon!

How was this possible? As an invincible, he could see that Su Yu was not using any blood essence at the moment. He had heard of the rumored ability blood essence and he could judge whether it was being used.

In short, this was Su Yu’s actual physical strength. Great Ming King was not blind. He could also see that Su Yu was not using any of Ye Batian’s characters.

He patted Su Yu’s head with a complicated gaze and said, “Put your mask back on.”

He only said that because he didn’t want to look at such a young face. That young face was a great reminder of the youthfulness he had lost.

Su Yu obediently put his mask back on. Great Ming King exhaled in relief. He felt a lot more comfortable not looking at that young face anymore.

“You entered through a realm entrance?”

“Yes.”

“How many of you?”

“Twelve elders and a hundred white masks.”

“Where’s the entrance?”

“I don’t know. They brought us through a complicated route using multiple teleportation formations.”

“Are there gold masks in the group?”

“I didn’t see any.”

“Why are you betraying Heavenly Hunt Pavilion so easily?”

Great Ming King didn’t know what to feel. He had been looking forward to capturing someone alive to interrogate. Why was this guy telling him everything?

Su Yu was left speechless. What a dumb question. How normal was it for him to betray the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion? He did not bother to answer.

“When did you join them?”

“A short time ago. After the first time the city was sealed, Profound Nine died and I succeeded him.”

“Your body…”

“Oh, that’s easy. Just open the grand cycle acupoints and forge your body about fifty or sixty times and you will reach this level.”

“…”

He was completely speechless.

Right. Just open the grand cycle acupoints and forge the body fifty or sixty times and one would naturally reach this level. Wasn’t it obvious?
