Tribulation of Myriad Races

Each word of Su Yu was akin to a nail, stabbing deep into Hundred Battle King’s heart.

Su Yu was speaking the truth. When Hundred Battle King first returned, Su Yu had guessed a part of Hundred Battle King’s plan. He had thought that Hundred Battle King was cold but still respectable.

He was unhappy with that, but he did not hate Hundred Battle King for it. Hundred Battle King was free to make his own choices. But with the truth revealed, Su Yu only felt fury and disdain toward Hundred Battle King. Thus, he showed Hundred Battle King zero courtesy. Hundred Battle King was unworthy of it.

Hundred Battle King turned even paler than before.

Beside him, Yu had a sneer on her face. Was this the result of his insistence on returning? Instead of winning the respect of his opponent, he was viewed with utter contempt.

Finally, Yu spoke, ”Su Yu, you are indeed different—”

”Shut up.” Su Yu snapped, ”Shut your damn mouth. For causing the defection of the ninth human lord, your sin is unforgivable as well. Of course, you won’t be considered a traitor since you have never been a part of us. As a member of an enemy race, I only need to kill you.

”Hundred Battle qualifies to have his infamy live on for eternity. But a piece of trash like you is only qualified to die. You are unworthy of even a single mention in our history books.”

Yu’s expression changed.

Su Yu’s tongue was too sharp.

Right at that moment, a myriad daos converged around Su Yu as his aura soared. He said, ”Since you have stupidly decided to stay, die.”

”Domain is supreme. The heaven and earth, the four directions, all fall under my purview.”

Boom!

The world started compressing.

Su Yu’s aura grew even stronger.

Yu cursed, ”Fight! What are you waiting for?”

Since the dumb Hundred Battle King had opted to say, what else could they do but fight? Why was that idiot still standing there blankly?

Boom!

A spear powered by 720 acupoints swept forth. Space shattered.

Hundred Battle King and the others attacked as well.

”The river of civilization shall reveal the essence of civilization. The gathering of the myriad daos shall break the myriad daos.”

Boom!

As the myriad daos converged, a river took form in the sky. One Su Yu after another walked out of the river, each with a book in his hand. They were all giving a lecture, a lecture on the myriad daos and the countless civilizations.

”I am the devil. The devilish path is feared by all. Devil ancestor, rise!”

Boom!

And then, a devil walked out of the boundless darkness. Devil’s Descent. This was the racial ability of the devil race. It had somehow connected to the threads of destiny to call upon a certain entity.

And then, the devil Su Yu charged toward the approaching powerhouses.

”I am immortal. I only seek immortality, not fame. To be undying is to be immortal.”

And then, an immortal Su Yu walked out. This version of Su Yu was ethereal in appearance. The power of time shrouded him, yet he seemed completely immune to time and aging.

”I am divine. The most hallowed and noble of all. I reign above all life. The Divine Ancestor shall suppress the very heavens.”

One Su Yu after Su Yu appeared, each seemed connected to a different entity through the threads of destiny. Undying Su Yu. Hallowed Su Yu. Devilish Su Yu.

The distant myriad races were staring blankly. They felt as though they were truly looking at their ancestors, the ancestors who had brought their races into existence. Did these ancestors...truly exist?

Su Yu was manufacturing one powerful being after another in his world.

Boom!

The various incarnations of Su Yu continued lecturing the masses on the myriad daos and myriad civilizations. He was expounding on the myth of creation. He was spreading culture and radiance. He was creating the various races. He was pioneering an era.

Book after book covered the world.

The devil ancestor summoned a sea of flames, trapping Thunderstorm, Yue Luo, and Yue Xiao inside the book he was carrying. The divine ancestor met Hundred Battle King in battle, dragging Hundred Battle King into his book as well.

The immortal ancestor clashed against Yu before wrapping her in his book.

However, Yu was too powerful for that. Before the book could fully drag her inside, a spear pierced through the book before killing the immortal ancestor. But immediately after, the immortal ancestor returned to life and said, ”As an immortal, I am undying.”

The second immortal ancestor was killed right after, only to return once again. But as that happened, Su Yu paled slightly. With a snort, he reached out to his world again. Even more incarnations appeared.

Nether, dragon, phoenix, spirit, soul...

All of them charged toward their opponents.

And each of them was holding a book while lecturing their opponents on the origin of civilization.

Hundred Battle King fought madly, punching the divine ancestor repeatedly. However, the noble divine ancestor shone brightly, slowly affecting Hundred Battle King with his nobility. As time passed, Hundred Battle King’s eyes slowly slackened.

***

At the same time, Yu Qing’s face fell.

Su Yu was too terrifying. No, to be precise, a Creator was too terrifying.

She looked back at the Hell Gate. With so many powerhouses dead, the gate was starting to react. She transmitted, ”Everyone, on Su Yu’s side, only Su Yu himself and Death Imperator is still capable of combat. He’s busy facing his current opponents. If we join hands, we can definitely kill Su Yu! He can’t survive all of us!”

This was the perfect opening for them.

Su Yu would definitely die if they were willing to work together. There were five Masters of Laws among the myriad races. On her side, Venerable Scrape and she were Masters of Laws. Yue Zhan was near that level. This was enough to kill Su Yu.

Even if they had to enter Su Yu’s world, they had enough strength to blast his world apart. No matter how strong Su Yu was, even if he was as strong as Martial King, he wouldn’t be able to resist such a powerful force. He would need to reach Human Emperor’s level to do so.

At that, those from the myriad races looked at Tiangu. They agreed that this was an incredibly rare opportunity.

Tiangu’s eyes flickered as he said, ”Our people are still in his hands, including those from the Lower Realm. He is ruthless enough to exterminate all of them before dying. We will be the sole survivors of our races, even if we can defeat him.”

Yes, he agreed that they could win. But Su Yu was too ruthless. He would most certainly kill everyone before his death. There was no doubt about that.

Tiangu continued transmitting to the others, ”Do you wish to bet on winning and having Su Yu release our people before releasing us or do you want to bet on us being able to kill him before he can kill all our people?”

The expressions of the others changed. Should they take this bet?

”Even if we can kill Su Yu...the sinned lineage is on the same side as Hundred Battle. Will they really leave us alone after Su Yu’s defeat? Are they really more trustworthy than Su Yu?

”We need to kill Yu Qing and Yue Zhan. If we drag things out until Su Yu emerges victorious, things might grow even more troublesome for us. Since he has lifted the restriction and allowed us to advance, I suspect that...he’s planning to drive us into the Hell Gate or the Heaven Gate before sealing us inside.

”We have five Masters of Laws among us. We might be able to survive even behind the gate. Out here, things are completely hopeless for us.”

Consort Emeritus glanced at Su Yu before transmitting, ”Tiangu, you believe that he will drive us behind the Hell Gate?”

”That would be his best choice apart from killing us. Right now, only the location of the Hell Gate is fully known. Passage through the gate is also possible since those from Control King’s lineage were able to enter.”

Consort Emeritus considered the matter. How should they survive after entering the Hell Gate?

Tiangu transmitted, ”Things are definitely dangerous in there. We might even encounter terrifying beings like Control King. But are we sure that we’re safer out here? If we get lucky, we might be able to find a place to recuperate and last long enough for the emperors to return. We might even be able to recruit a bunch of chaos beasts to our side before returning.

”Take this chance to kill Yu Qing and reclaim our people from Su Yu. We can even take the initiative to enter the gate before he gets the chance to chase us away. This might be the best option to prevent us from falling into another one of Su Yu’s tricks.”

Seeing that the others were hesitating, Tiangu said heavily, ”Have you forgotten that South Heavenly King and the others have merely fused into Su Yu’s world? They are not crippled. They have merely been weakened slightly. But they have been idle since their fusion into Su Yu’s world. Why? Because they’re keeping an eye on us.”

Had these people forgotten about Su Yu’s followers just because he was fighting alone? Yes, they had dropped slightly in strength, but there were so many of them. Including the Death Imperator, who was still as strong as ever, could the myriad races truly join the battle against Su Yu?

There was also the chaos dragon and eight-winged tiger, who were being suspiciously silent right now. Had they forgotten about the two as well? Su Yu was still on high alert against them.

When needed, all those people could still fight. Su Yu might still be defeated in the end, but the myriad races would also suffer heavy casualties. After all, they would need to fight inside Su Yu’s world to defeat Su Yu.

Only then did they recall the various powerful followers of Su Yu who were still waiting at the sidelines. Su Yu seemed to be creating a misconception that South Heavenly King and the others were no longer combat-capable. But was that really the case?

Consort Emeritus’ expression changed as she transmitted, ”Kill!”

Boom!

With a rumble, the dragon and phoenix attacked Yu Qing. Venerable Desolate and Sacred Marquis attacked Venerable Scrape. Power converged on Consort Emeritus’ sword as she swung it at Yue Zhan.

Yue Zhan was shocked, while Yu Qing was furious. ”How foolish!”

Boom!

A rumble rang out as Yue Zhan summoned his Hell Gate, only for it to be cut apart instantly. A line of blood appeared on his head. With despair and indignation, he turned to look at Yu Qing and opened his mouth. If she had given him the chaos will, he could have advanced and not died like this.

Yu Qing...they had all changed. They had also abandoned their people, freely using the lives of their own to fuel the opening of the Hell Gate.

At that thought, he laughed and looked at Yue Luo. As blood poured out of his mouth, he roared, ”Yue Luo, Yue Xiao, remember this! Those who sacrifice their own people for the benefit of others...do not deserve to live! Live on, the two of you!”

Boom!

And then, his body crumbled apart. He had seen through everything at his final moments. The so-called holy race was but a joke. Yu Qing and the others had changed long ago. For them, nothing mattered more than summoning Control King and Human Ancestor back to the Myriad Realms. Their people no longer mattered.

Such a race did not deserve to exist. They were worse than even the myriad races. After all, the myriad races were fighting for their people. But what were the members of the so-called holy race even fighting for?

How lamentable.
