Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 594: Leaving Great Xia (1)

"Thank you for the favor, Prefect."

Su Yu couldn't be bothered to say anything else. This was one thing that was bad about Zhu Tiandao. For some reason, he loved marketing his daughter and granddaughter to Su Yu. Was he not aware that all women were obstacles to cultivation?

A lot of people had been brought away by Marquis Xia, including the Mountainsea beasts. But Su Yu wasn't worried. He would have Zhu Tiandao negotiate for the release of the three beasts. Hu Hao and the others had also been brought away by Marquis Xia. Even the surviving students like the sky horse youth were brought along.

Thus, only those who were truly with Su Yu were left behind. Sure, he wasn't familiar with them, but he knew that they were on his side. For example, Feng Ji, who was Chen Yong's friend. There was also Zhao Li's senior brother, Zhao Tianbing, and Teacher Liu's intimate female friend, Zhao Mingyue.

"Thank you, seniors."

Su Yu expressed his gratitude. He had not asked for the help of these people. But they had all arrived to help him. This was a favor he would not forget.

Looking at him, Zhao Mingyue sighed and said, "You have your own path to walk. I did not expect this before coming here, but since you have decided on your path, walk it until the very end. The multiple character faction...forget it. Life is much better in Great Ming. I suppose it's not a bad thing for you to leave. Since the battle is over, I'll be taking my leave. If you need help, feel free to contact me."

She didn't say much. There really wasn't anything she could say anyway. It was a good thing for Su Yu that he had caught Zhu Tiandao's eye. It was likely that Great Xia would never be able to provide Su Yu with as much support as Zhu Tiandao could. Or at the very least, the Xia Family would not be able to openly show him this much favor. The Xia Family was forced to stay neutral or at least appear neutral. Thus, they would not be able to show any bias toward the multiple character faction.

"Thank you, Martial Mother."

"..."

Zhao Mingyue blanked out slightly, but soon, a smile bloomed on that cold face of hers. Beside them, Zhu Tiandao was looking at Su Yu with an odd gaze. Martial mother? What was going on?

Su Yu calmly said, "Teacher Liu Wenyan is my teacher as well."

"Cough, cough, cough..."

What an incredible kid. Zhu Tiandao was aware of Liu Wenyan's story as well. He said, "Zhao Mingyue, Hu Ping, and Wu Yuehua...you are probably only saying this because the other two aren't here. Hahaha!"

He really wanted to see Su Yu addressing Zhao Mingyue as his martial mother in front of the other two women. That would be an interesting sight.

Feng Ji also laughed and said, "Martial Uncle Liu's relationship status...is indeed complicated."

He took the chance to say, "By the way, not many people know that I'm still alive. Su Yu, Brother Chen had mentioned you to me many times. If you need anything, you can contact me. But keep in mind that I won't reveal myself easily."

He tossed a voice transmission talisman to Su Yu and said, "Let's meet again in the future if fate allows it. There are too many undercurrents in Great Xia so something big will happen there sooner or later. Hopefully, you're already strong enough by that time...Or maybe it doesn't matter. Just live a good life in Great Ming."

Having said that, he left as well.

After looking at Su Yu and Zhu Tiandao, Zhao Tianbing said, "What a pity that Great Ming is the one to ultimately benefit from all this. You could have come to me, you know. I still have a lot of prestige in Great Zhou."

Zhu Tiandao glared at Zhao Tianbing. But Zhao Tianbing did not seem to mind. Both of them were Sunmoons. Thus, it wasn't like Zhu Tiandao's status was that much higher than his.

"My junior brother is too stubborn. I've been trying to get him to join me at Great Zhou, but he refuses to leave. I have no choice but to let him be. As for you...take care. Don't trust anyone. We live in a world where you can only trust yourself."

He tossed a ring to Su Yu and said, "This is a storage ring. It's not too useful for cultural researchers. Most of the time, only warriors need one of these. My junior brother told me to bring you a puppet from Great Zhou. Take it."

Then, he looked at the spot where a moon had fallen and sighed, "Jin Yuhui is actually an old acquaintance of mine. What a pity..."

That was a Sunmoon. Even within the entirety of Human Realm, such a person could be considered a big shot. Yet such a big shot had died in such a disgraceful manner today. What a disgrace.

With a sigh, Zhao Tianbing departed. Only Su Yu, Zhu Tiandao, and the weaker beasts were left there.

After taking a glance at the spot where a moon had fallen, Su Yu asked, "Prefect, can you give me some time? Since two Sunmoons have been killed here, I can't waste this opportunity. I wish to spend some time cultivating here."

"Sure. Go ahead."

Zhu Tiandao did not mind.

Su Yu nodded and looked at the remaining beasts. "Go ahead and cultivate. This is your reward. Two Sunmoons have perished here. This will be very helpful for your cultivation. Consider this a reward for your hard work today."

Killing Sunmoons to cultivate. Not even Invincibles could afford such a luxury. This was quite a lucky coincidence for these beasts. Meanwhile, the little furball was already beside Jin Yuhui, stealthily feasting on his remaining characters.

Since Jin Yuhui had just broken through, only his main Divine Character had reached the Sunmoon Realm. The rest of his characters were still stuck at the peak Mountainsea Realm.

The lingering character intent left in the air was just as powerful as what was left after the battle in Great Xia's capital not long ago. Su Yu said nothing else and sat down cross-legged to cultivate. All his apertures and acupoints were fully opened. At the same time, a character was slowly taking form in his mind.

Tribulation!

A renewed life would always come after a tribulation. And he was someone who had faced countless tribulations. He was only a Mental Tempering Stage student, yet even Sunmoons had tried killing him. In one battle, more than ten Mountainseas and two Sunmoons had perished.

This was a major tribulation. And the tribulation had passed. But Su Yu knew that he would encounter even more tribulations in the future. Regardless of whether it was his disassembly method, his divine-grade art, and the book in his head, all of them would be the sources of tribulations.

The moments those things were exposed, he would turn into a target of the myriad races. Even some humans might aim to get rid of him. He had escaped the cage that was Great Xia, but who knew if Great Ming wasn't yet another cage?

The invisible chains were still wrapped tightly around him. From the moment he discovered the existence of the book in his head, he had realized that it would be the source of a massive tribulation that he could not escape. Or perhaps this would be the tribulation of the Myriad Realms.

As something capable of analyzing the cultivation methods and abilities of the myriad races with the blood essence of the myriad races as fuel, this book would serve as the source of numerous tribulations.

As he reached that conclusion, understanding dawned on him and the tribulation character completed its formation. He came to a realization that he would probably be living a life filled with tribulations.

Through the battle today, he had escaped his previous cage. But he had also pushed himself even closer to danger. Only one of the survivors today needed to betray him and a great catastrophe would befall.

Su Yu was only eighteen, but this realization made his emotions complicated. He felt lost when he thought about his future. Frustration seeped in.

Was this a victory for him?

Nope.

Regardless of how many Mountainseas or Sunmoons he killed, some things would remain the same for him.

Nearby.

Zhu Tiandao's eyes flickered as he observed Su Yu. What was that? A natural character! This kid had formed yet another natural character!

Genius!

A super genius!

Cultivation methods? Secret arts? All those could be learned one way or another. But these natural characters were the things Su Yu had comprehended by himself. If this wasn't enough to prove his genius, what could?

Even without all those things, this alone was enough to make Su Yu an absolute genius. He had actually comprehended yet another natural character. What a monstrous kid.

"But this character...seems somewhat inauspicious."

The calamitous aura that the character was emitting told Zhu Tiandao that this was completely different from the fire of civilization he had seen on Su Yu not long ago. Instead, this thing was calamitous in nature.

A short while later, Director Hou arrived. Looking at Su Yu, he had an amazed expression as well. Comprehending a character all by himself? What a monster.

After some time, the air warped as a white-haired old man descended from the sky. While stroking his beard, the old man looked at Su Yu before looking at Zhu Tiandao. With a smile, he asked, "Are you sure this is worth it?"

"Definitely!" Zhu Tiandao said, "Dad, this is more than worth it. This is the jackpot!"

"Good." The old man smiled and said, "That Xia Longwu kid is quite impressive. What a pity that this old man doesn't have a descendant that impressive."

Xia Longwu was a descendant of Great Xia King.

"Is he really that strong?"

The old man nodded and said, "Didn't you tell me to keep him blind? Old Xia wasn’t around, but Xia Longwu used his physical body to stomp through the past and the future to break through my seal. Didn't you hear his voice transmission? That was a voice from the future. What a terrifying kid. His physical body is already infinitely near the Invincible Realm."

The look in Zhu Tiandao's eyes changed as he said, "Is he that strong? That can't be, right? We both cultivate heaven-grade cultivation methods. Why is he so much stronger? It's not like he's Ye Batian."

The old man stroked his beard and sighed, "That was why I said that Old Xia is good at giving birth. Just look at how impressive his grandson is..."

"It's not like he was the one who had given birth to Xia Longwu..."

"..."

The old man glanced at Zhu Tiandao and said, "Fine. Old Xia's eldest son had produced a good son. Is that more acceptable for you? So what if I insist on saying that Old Xia had given birth to a good grandson? Can't I do so?"

"Yes, you can."

The old man continued sighing as he said, "What a pity. If my eldest son is still around, he would definitely be as impressive as Xia Longwu."

Zhu Tiandao didn't feel like saying anything. Even this old man was saying that. This old man had been saying these words again and again.

"My eldest brother was dead at nine. Stop talking about him all the time."

The old man ignored Zhu Tiandao and scanned the area. Before long, his gaze landed on the stone wall. At that moment, he laughed and said, "Ruin my ass. That's a treasure vault. I don't know who it belongs to. It's probably the Divine Skywing Sect."

That rendered Zhu Tiandao speechless. He had thought that there was really a ruin here.

The old man continued scanning the area before shaking his head. "Your perception and senses are terrible. Someone was here not long ago. You're too useless. If you hadn't stopped me from coming, I would have been able to capture that person."

"Lan Tian?"

"Yeah."

Zhu Tiandao frowned, "What is Lan Tian trying to do? Don't tell me he has learned something he shouldn't..."

"It's fine." The old man wasn't worried. He said, "Su Yu has probably caught Lan Tian's eyes. But it doesn't matter. That fellow is definitely not a good person, but he's not a traditionally evil person. He is the kind of bad person who truly believes that he is a good person. He fully believes that he is the savior of humanity. Someone like him will not expose Su Yu's secrets even if he knows something. He is probably trying to recruit Su Yu."

When an evil person was crazy enough to believe that he was the savior, it would become almost impossible to predict what that person would do next. At times, such a person would do something completely uncharacteristic of him.

"His student was taken away by Xia Xiao'er..."

"Bullshit." Great Ming King said, "Xia Xiao'er is not capable enough to take his student away. In the entirety of Great Xia, only two or three individuals have the ability to stand against that person. And Xia Xiao'er is not one of them. I took a look at that girl when I was on my way here. Her sea of consciousness has vanished. It is probably in Lan Tian's hands. Xia Xiao'er has merely brought an empty shell with him. And even this shell might be fake."

This was why the transformation faction was so terrifying.
