Tribulation of Myriad Races

Great Zhou King’s face turned stiff. Meanwhile, Su Yu was laughing. Great Zhou King’s ploy was obvious. He was trying to lure Great Qin King out of the world. But surprisingly, Great Qin King had learned to use his brain. He had stopped fighting just as he was about to exit the world.

Great Zhou King was left speechless. What was that? Damn that bastard!

Right at that moment, Great Xia King laughed and said, ”My turn, Old Zhou! Let’s have some fun!”

Then, a gigantic saber manifested before entering Great Xia King’s body. With a saber in hand, Great Xia King charged forward. This time, Great Zhou King pulled all the way out of the world without any hesitation. After a slight hesitation, Great Xia King followed outside with his saber in hand.

But the moment he left the world, his crisis sense started screaming at him. Inside the world, he felt omnipotent. The moment he was outside, he felt weakened. That boost given to him by the world was gone.

Boom!

Meanwhile, Great Zhou King felt better after leaving the world. That constant suppression by the world itself was gone. The moment he was outside, he vanished before reappearing behind Great Xia King. Then, he generated a spatial crack before slicing it toward Great Xia King.

Instantly, Great Xia King’s shirt was cut apart. When Great Xia King swung his saber backward, Great Zhou King vanished again. Great Xia King’s expression changed as he hurriedly moved away, but a tiny sword stabbed through the sole of his foot before he could move.

With a roar, he swung his saber again. But yet again, Great Zhou King vanished with a flicker. In no time, Great Xia King was wounded all over.

He could only return to Su Yu’s world gloomily. With his departure, Great Zhou King reappeared and smiled, ”Both you and Qin Hao are heavenly kings inside His Majesty’s world, or maybe even stronger. Your opponents will be suppressed inside. But outside, you are no better than tier-two Daofuses. How can you rival me?”

The two had misunderstood something. They were still not heavenly kings.

Not far away, Su Yu nodded. ”Inside my world, the two of you are true heavenly kings. But as I said, you will drop in strength after leaving this place. You will only grow stronger outside after you become Venerables or even Masters of Laws.”

Everyone was stunned to hear that.

Su Yu grinned. ”What is this reaction? Are you so surprised to hear about being Masters of Laws? Human Emperor sealed the River of Time, but my dao has no relationship with the River of Time. Even becoming Masters of Laws is possible with my dao. However, your strength will still be inconsistent unless my dao grows to rival the time dao.”

Even Great Zhou King grew slightly excited upon hearing that. ”Your Majesty, are you saying that the path forward is open for your dao? In that case, Human Emperor’s dao has quite a lot of fake dao cultivators as well. Why...”

Su Yu explained, ”Human Emperor’s dao is still connected to the River of Time. Thus, the fake daos there are quite similar to real daos. That explains why the fake daos there are so powerful, even when Human Emperor’s dao is only slightly stronger than my dao.

”Those cultivating my dao will drop a level after leaving, but those cultivating Human Emperor’s dao will only drop half a level or so after leaving the Dao Origin Land.”

Great Zhou King exclaimed in shock, ”Your Majesty, do you mean that...Human Emperor’s dao is worse than...yours?”

Su Yu shook his head with a chuckle. ”Not really. Human Emperor was merely unwilling to completely sever his dao from the River of Time. He had been trying to first perfect his dao through the River of Time before severing the connection.

”At present, my dao is still weak. Thus, it can’t convert chaos power into dao power fast enough for our consumption. Human Emperor’s dao is stronger, but his area lacks chaos power. Without the River of Time, he won’t be able to generate enough power for his consumption as well.”

Thus, he had kept the connection.

The topic successfully distracted Great Xia King from his defeat. He hurriedly asked, ”Your Majesty, you mean that even after becoming heavenly kings here, we will drop to tier-two Daofuses outside?”

”Yes.”

Great Xia King turned gloomy. ”Then...is there a way for us to carry this world everywhere? Or can we drag our enemies in here before we fight?”

That felt terrible.

Su Yu laughed. ”Not for now. I can only move it around within chaos, but the moment it leaves chaos, both the death spirit dao and time dao will reject it.”

Su Yu’s eyes flickered as he continued, ”The chaotic space outside the three realms is connected. That much is clear from the fact that the chaos beasts from Chaos Mountain were here before this. Therefore, I can actually move my world near the Chaos Mountain.”

Everyone’s heart thumped. Did that not mean that Great Xia King and Great Qin King could potentially maintain their combat strength even at the Chaos Mountain? There, they could continue rivalling true heavenly kings.

Wan Tiansheng said, ”Your Majesty...is...is there a way to expand this world? It is still too small.”

”Yes. But I need to further improve the dao for that to happen.”

Everyone could see that the world had grown larger from the inclusion of Great Xia King and Great Qin King. The growth of the saber and spear daos had benefited the world as a whole. Chaos was being pushed back as the world grew.

Heavendoom hurriedly said, ”Your Majesty, can I become a heavenly king rapidly after fusing with the staff dao of your world?”

Su Yu answered, ”I can’t guarantee anything. Your comprehension is important as well. But the difficulty will be lower since there is only one staff dao here. My staff dao includes everything similar, such as sticks, rods, and so on. There is only one such dao here. With enough comprehension, not to mention becoming a heavenly king, you can even become a Master of Law.

”I will also open my dao fully to you, helping with your comprehension. But not even that will help if you’re too stupid to comprehend more even with my help.”

Heavendoom did not consider that an issue. Was he stupid?

Heh.

He was tempted. If he could become a heavenly king, he would still be a tier-two Daofuse after dropping a tier. Furthermore, there was a lot of room for growth in Su Yu’s world. As the world continued growing, he would benefit significantly as well.

Clearly, this was a choice that would benefit the early adopters the most. The dao in a newly born world was the easiest to comprehend as things were still relatively simple. More importantly, there was no competitor in this world. He could monopolize the dao for himself.

Apart from Su Yu, nobody could control his chosen dao. The same could be said for Great Xia King and Great Qin King. With them cultivating the saber and spear daos of Su Yu’s world, there was no room for other saber and spear cultivators.

After a short thought, Heavendoom said, ”Your Majesty, I wish to fuse with your dao.”

His choice was made.

When Su Yu looked at him questioningly, he nodded. ”I wish to fuse with the dao in your world. When you grow, we will benefit from it as well. And when your dao grows to the level of the River of Time, our strength will no longer decline after leaving your world. Isn’t that the case?”

Su Yu nodded.

Heavendoom smiled. ”In other words, we will all benefit from your rise. The River of Time is too hard to comprehend. We can’t even be sure if there are Masters of Laws waiting at the end of our daos. But here, we can be sure that we are the sole cultivators of our chosen daos.

”Yes, we will drop a level upon leaving. Perhaps we will be weaker than those so-called Venerables even after becoming Masters of Laws. But that is temporary. Your growth will make us true Masters of Laws. Right?”

Su Yu smiled. ”Yes. But you need to understand that it might take a long time to happen. I can’t promise I will succeed. Even after you become a Venerable, you might still be weaker than heavenly kings in combat. Won’t that feel terrible?”

Heavendoom laughed. ”What? Nope. I don’t care. It’s almost hopeless for me to reach the level of a heavenly king as I am. But now, that dream is within reach. This is basically a shortcut. We are essentially sharing your prodigious talent by fusing with your dao.”

Suddenly, Grandstar and a few others spoke as well. ”Your Majesty, allow us to fuse with your dao!”

Their eyes were gleaming with excitement. This was indeed a massive opportunity. It was also a major gamble. A gamble that would win them a position of power within this new world once won.

They would be able to truly soar alongside Su Yu’s rise. Everyone who was still not a heavenly king shared the same thought.

As for those who were already heavenly kings, Su Yu did not wish to see them fuse into his dao so soon. That would only weaken those on his side. Very few of them had enough comprehension to directly become Masters of Laws, or perhaps there were none.

Taking in everyone’s reaction, Su Yu smiled.

”Okay.” He did not refuse them. ”Since everyone trusts me, let’s milk the River of Time together. Milk the river dry.”

Everyone laughed.

And then, numerous daos unfurled within Su Yu’s world.

”Everyone...”

Boom!

Before he could finish his words, Heavendoom shot forth to grab the staff dao.

Grandstar moved as well. He even played dirty and kicked Empyrean Cloud away before shooting forward. He said apologetically, ”There is only one sword dao, Empyrean Cloud. You should keep waiting. I’ll do this first.”

Su Yu was completely dumbstruck.

Yes. Both Grandstar and Empyrean Cloud were sword cultivators. But...but...Grandstar was playing dirty! Even Empyrean Cloud was stunned for a short moment before roaring in fury, ”Bastard!”

Was this his way of being a gentleman?

This was too hateful!

Not far away, Great Ming King smiled and stepped forth leisurely. ”Nobody is fighting me over the formation dao. I guess I can finally experience how it feels to be a heavenly king.”

But right after, a smiling Zhu Tiandao appeared before him. ”Father, let me have it. I’m struggling here. I’m still a fresh Eternal while you’re already a tier-two Daofuse. What’s the point? You’re old, Father. Give the youngsters a chance to shine.”

Great Ming King opened his mouth, but no words came out. After a while, he cursed, ”There isn’t even a need for you to walk the formation dao! Do you have shit instead of a brain in that skull of yours? Why are you still fighting your old man at this age? You’re not a baby anymore!”

”...”

Zhu Tiandao sighed and said, ”Father, I’m familiar with formations as well. In fact, I’m not too well-versed in everything else.”

”...”

Great Ming King had the urge to give his unfilial son a beating.

Damn it!

A large number of people started flying into Su Yu’s world.

Dao fusion!

There was no need for further guidance from Su Yu. Not long after, aura after aura surged as they began their fusion.

Su Yu’s world started expanding.

When Su Yu looked at Great Zhou King, Great Zhou King smiled and sent a voice transmission, ”Is this to your satisfaction, Your Majesty?”

”This must be what you have been aiming for.”

”No.” Great Zhou King laughed. ”I’m merely helping everyone grab this precious opportunity. Danger and opportunity will usually appear together. How can we go strong without taking any risk whatsoever? In fact, I’m waiting for you to declare that we will be taking the fight to Human Emperor’s side instead of waiting for them to return. That is the Emperor Yu I know.”

Su Yu laughed. True. That was perhaps the best choice for him.

Seizing the initiative.

Just like how he had taken the fight to the Upper Realm not long ago.

That day, a large number of experts started fusing into Su Yu’s world. Together, they milked the River of Time.
