Tribulation of Myriad Races

“Old Zheng…”

Niu Baidao, who was distracted by Great Zheng King’s death, had his throat pierced through by his opponent. He was also having a hard time against these opponents.

He was able to pull back with a bleeding throat, but he was feeling quite helpless. He smiled bitterly. He had just affirmed his dao not long ago. How strong could he be? Su Yu had overestimated them.

Nobody could spare any effort to help him as the others were also having a hard time against their opponents. Both Marquis Xia and Zhu Tiandao, in particular, were looking rather sorry. They could only take evasive measures to keep their opponents engaged instead of fighting head-on. How were they supposed to win this?

Niu Baidao was on the verge of dying. Things were looking bad for Marquis Xia and Zhu Tiandao as well. Just then, Qin Zhen, Liu Wushen, and Zhou Potian arrived. Things were progressing too quickly in this battle and they were too far away to reach in time.

In fact, they had even ignited their blood essence to move faster, but they were still too late. Great Zheng King had died before their arrival.

With a roar, Qin Zhen swept his spear forth and blocked the attack toward Marquis Xia. The impact sent him flying while coughing blood. As for Marquis Xia, he took the chance to withdraw and stop beside Qin Zhen.

Looking at Marquis Xia, Qin Zhen smiled bitterly and asked, “So you’re single as well?”

Marquis Xia’s face fell.

What was that wording? He was a Pseudo Invincible. For him to only be reduced to a single guy after resisting an Invincible for so long was already an impressive feat. Just surviving that was already worth a celebration.

At the same time, the Invincible facing Niu Baidao was pushed back by Zhou Potian. Zhu Tiandao was also saved by Liu Wushen. After saving Zhu Tiandao, Liu Wushen sighed and said, “Aren’t you supposed to be an Invincible-killer?”

How weak.

In fairness, Zhu Tiandao was not weak at all. His opponent was a fourth-degree Eternal while he was only a Pseudo Invincible.

Zhu Tiandao rolled his eyes and said, “Even being alive is already a great accomplishment for me.”

Liu Wushen sure was rude.

Then, Zhu Tiandao looked toward where Great Zheng King had self-detonated. The shockwaves from the explosion was just starting to settle down, revealing a bloodied Invincible who was staring at them with a smile.

He had survived even Great Zheng King’s self-detonation. He had only lost a body. Of the seven non-human Invincibles, he was the only one unlucky enough to be affected by the self-detonation. The rest of them were completely unaffected.

Including the three new arrivals and excluding the dead Great Zheng King, the non-human Invincibles were faced with nine opponents. However, only two of the nine still have all their bodies intact. Zhou Potian and Yun Chen. The rest had lost one or two tri-life bodies each.

Far away, Su Yu’s roar rang out, “Senior Flat, save them!”

Su Yu could also sense the dangerous situation Zhu Tiandao and the others were in. However, the three bastards were still keeping him busy. He couldn’t free himself to help them. Thus, he could only place his hope on the female furball.

No matter what, the female furball was a Daofuse. She might have been injured, but she could probably do more. Hearing his request, the female furball grumbled unwillingly and set off.

How annoying.

She had essentially been acting as the number one support of the day. Without her around, things would have been far worse for humanity.

Just as the female furball was about to rush over, a myriad race Invincible appeared above Great Ming. This was yet another hidden expert. Before long, another hidden Invincible emerged. Su Yu’s heart thumped. That was the secret realm entrance of the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion! Or to be precise, it was more like a gap in the realm barrier instead of a proper entrance.

And someone else had seemingly discovered the gap. Or perhaps they had simply learned of the location from the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion.

Damn it!

Su Yu could feel the powerful auras of the two newcomers even from afar. They were both immortals. The two looked around. Before long, they understood what was happening.

The stronger of the two smiled and said, “Great Ming. It has been over four hundred years since I was last here. This is surprisingly easy. Nobody is here to stop us.”

Humanity was currently short of manpower. It was only natural that nobody was there to stop them. With a roar, Su Yu threw a punch before following up with a saber attack, forcing his three opponents to withdraw. However, they still maintained enough distance to keep Su Yu busy.

In fact, their morale had been boosted by the sight of reinforcements. Clearly, even the human Invincibles outside couldn’t stop these people from entering. At this rate, the myriad races would end up victorious. As for the female furball, she was struggling again. Where should she go now?

The two Invincibles were seemingly planning to unleash slaughter in Great Ming. After all, they had covered the entire Great Ming with their killing intent. Zhu Tiandao, who was busy fleeing from his opponent, felt even more helpless.

What now?

Great Ming did not currently have the ability to resist two Invincibles.

Above, one Mountainsea after another appeared. All their Sunmoons had been deployed to deal with the hidden myriad race experts earlier. Thus, only some Mountainseas and Cloudbreaches emerged to face the two new enemies. They knew they would die doing this, but they had to do it.

“Bugs…”

The two immortal kings laughed. How brave of these bugs. The two were actually quite impressed with the courage these bugs were demonstrating. Noticing the arrival of a disaster, Su Yu blasted his opponents away before attempting to leave in desperation. However, the three Invincibles were still stubbornly stopping him from leaving.

Finally, he gnashed his teeth and roared in fury, “Save Great Ming!”

That ended the female furball’s hesitation. As she started flying toward Great Ming, the two immortal kings sensed her approach. They exchanged glances before focusing fully on the approaching Daofuse, ignoring the bugs beneath them.

“A Daofuse of the soul devourer race.”

“An injured Daofuse.”

“Can we win?”

“Let’s try.”

Both of them were incredibly strong. And one of them was a familiar face to Su Yu: Jade King.

A ninth-degree Eternal.

The other was an eighth-degree Eternal.

The two had only entered the Human Realm as an experiment. They didn’t dare to send anyone weaker in as that would be the same as throwing the lives of those people away for nothing.

They were wary of the female furball, but they did not retreat. This was not Soy Bun. They could sense that this was a different furball, the weaker of the two Daofuses. Furthermore, she seemed to have sustained some injuries.

In that case, they were confident they could keep her busy even if they couldn’t defeat her. The female furball arrived in the blink of an eye. A massive battle erupted the moment she arrived.

After a short moment, the furious and annoyed female furball attempted to swallow them by force, but she was blocked by a token in Jade King’s hand. It was red in color, an assembly token. He had actually entered with an assembly token in hand.

Jade King laughed and said, “Looks like you can’t swallow me.”

That was the token of a super expert from the ancient past. It contained the power of the great dao as it was something left behind by a true Great Dao expert. The female’s devouring force might be powerful, but it wasn’t powerful enough to defeat the defenses of this token.

That further annoyed the female furball. The soul devourers had their own token as well, but Soy Bun was the one holding the token. The female had not expected to encounter so many experts during this trip, so she hadn’t bothered to take the token with her.

The battles all over the Human Realm continued growing in intensity. Meanwhile, things continued to worsen for Zhu Tiandao’s group even with the inclusion of three helpers. The two old Invincibles were starting to think of detonating themselves.

That was the only way they could inflict some heavy injuries on their opponents to give their allies a better fighting chance. That would be far better than dying without accomplishing anything.

On the other hand, Great Zhou King’s group had the absolute upper hand in the Celestial Chasm Realm.

Unfortunately, they could not return. They were blocked inside the Celestial Chasm Realm. As for those outside the Human Realm, they were too busy dealing with the Devil Pseudo Emperor and the others to help. Thus, those inside the Human Realm could only rely on themselves.

Four human Invincibles had died so far, and some had also lost their tri-life bodies. Thus, humanity had actually suffered quite a heavy loss even after killing so many enemies. There was no helping that since humanity was too outnumbered here. The myriad races had plenty of old fossils they could deploy. If this continued, humanity would suffer even more.

Meanwhile, Su Yu was still trying to fly toward Zhu Tiandao’s group while cursing inwardly. Great Zhou King and the others had left to fight so confidently. Had they never considered the fact that he couldn’t protect the Human Realm in their absence?

Yes, yes, he had bragged confidently earlier, claiming that the Human Realm would be fine as long as he was around. But twenty-six enemy Invincibles had appeared inside the Human Realm.

Many of them were high-degree Eternals. This was enough to rival even the celestial chasm race as long as a Daofuse was added to the mix. What was this? Su Yu felt as though humanity wasn’t fighting only one race. Rather, humanity was fighting two races at the same time.

One could also say that in the Human Realm, the humans were akin to the celestial chasms who were being invaded by Human Invincibles. They also had a Daofuse on their side, but Flatbun wasn’t even as strong as the Celestial Chasm Pseudo Emperor.

It also seemed like the situation would continue to worsen. Would more enemy Invincibles arrive from the secret entrance of the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion? That wasn’t something humanity could handle.

Su Yu looked down at the indistinct death tunnel below him. He gnashed his teeth, wondering if he should open the death tunnel. Opening a death tunnel here might be disastrous for the Human Realm.

He couldn’t be sure if a death tunnel here would lead toward Xing Yue and the others. What if some unknown powerful death spirits were waiting down there? This could very well cause Su Yu his own life. Thus, this wasn’t a bet he was willing to take unless he was desperate enough.

He was aware of Great Zhou King’s victory. But the situation in the Human Realm was rather desperate. Did he have more trump cards to use? No.

Su Yu was annoyed at the realization that he still did not have enough trump cards. He had exhausted his trump cards to protect the Human Realm this time.

At the same time.

Things were getting more and more desperate for Zhu Tiandao’s group. They were still the losing side even with the inclusion of three helpers. Their seven opponents were getting more and more aggressive as the battle continued.

They only needed to kill these people before joining the battle against Su Yu. At that point, their victory would be secured.

***

To the east.

Great Yuan King was already at his limits.

He was already seriously injured before the battle. And his injuries had only worsened after the battle started. His two opponents had also been seriously injured by him during the battle. The battle between the three heavily injured Invincibles raged on. Great Yuan King did not have the ability to help anyone.

As he fought, a sense of shame welled within him. As a seventh-degree Eternal, who was also a founding king, he had been rather useless in this battle. Yes, he had lost two bodies to Su Yu, but he couldn’t blame anyone for that.

He might have gone fully crazy by now if he hadn’t lost those two bodies. But still, he felt slightly regretful. If he were in his peak condition, he would have defeated these two long ago.

Alas, it was too late for regrets. If it wasn’t for the female furball’s earlier help, he would have died long ago.

After pushing his two opponents back yet again, Great Yuan King stopped to gasp for breath while staring into the distance. He was supposed to play a big role in such a battle. Alas, he had lost too much strength after losing two bodies. The more he thought about it, the more helpless he felt.

Those fellows were in an even worse state than him. As for his battle with the two Invincibles, it would probably persist until all three were dead. He did not see a situation where any of them could win without dying as well.

After yet another clash with the two, he sent them back with a swing of his spear while even more wounds appeared on his body. He made use of the impact from the clash to further distance himself from the two. Then, he looked at Su Yu before looking at Qin Zhen’s group. A decision took form in his mind.

“Su Yu…I still disapprove of you…even if you’re very talented.”

Yes. He still disapproved. In his opinion, Su Yu lacked one important quality: patience.

He believed that Great Zhou King was a far more suitable leader for humanity. Su Yu was better suited for the role of a vanguard or a general. He did not have the disposition of a calm and collected leader.

Great Yuan King sighed with regret, but he soon smiled. This was not the time for him to worry about all that.

“Su Yu…since you want me dead, I’ll fulfill your wish.”

He took his bow out. Then, he nocked his spear on the bow before igniting both his blood essence and sea of willpower. The very core of his being was burning.

“Su Yu! Kill!”

With a roar, the bow burst apart while the spear shot forth, flying straight toward the three enemies behind Su Yu.

“I…am…a founding king!”

With that, Great Yuan King faced the sky and roared with laughter. Then, his crumbling body exploded, the explosion spreading to encompass the two Invincibles behind him.

The deafening explosion echoed everywhere.

He was a founding king.

He did not support Su Yu.

Who was Su Yu?

Who was Su Yu to lead him?

What a joke.
