Chapter 838: First Venture Out Of The Human Realm (2)
At the same time.
In the same residence, Ye Hongyan frowned. She waved her hand and a screen appeared before her. Through the screen, she could see what Su Yu was doing.
Fourth tier character? This fellow sure was incredibly talented. He had actually pushed one of his characters to the fourth tier in such a short period of time. No wonder everyone believed that he had obtained the inheritance of an Invincible ruin. With a fourth-tier character, the Mountainsea Realm wouldn't be that far away. But this kid was still so young.
"Yet another Huang Teng and Qin Fang."
Huang Teng and Qin Fang were the current top young geniuses of humanity. Both were incredibly strong and capable of punching above their level. Their cultivation of the path of warriors was almost perfect, to the point even divines and devils were finding it hard to match them in combat.
And those two were also very well-known among the younger generation in the Allheaven Battlefield. Of course, some other people had started to become popular as of late, such as Wu Qi of Great Xia, Zhou Tong of Great Zhou, Jin Biyue of Great Jin, and the students of Invincibles from the two holy lands.
The Allheaven Battlefield never had a lack of geniuses. This was a place filled with people who had opened 144 acupoints. Here, killing someone with a higher cultivation level was normal. But normally, only the weaker ones would be killed by someone with a lower cultivation level. Against a Mountainsea from the first divine race, Huang Teng would probably not be a match.
Only someone capable of defeating a genius above their cultivation level could be considered a true genius. Ye Hongyan did not focus on Su Yu for long. After a while, she shook her head and tossed the matter out of her mind.
A fourth-tier character was impressive, but the Allheaven Battlefield was filled with experts and geniuses. Even Su Yu might not be able to outshine all those people. He was merely a flower in a greenhouse that had yet to experience much tempering.
Just because he could kill some people in the Human Realm did not mean that he could replicate the same feat in the Allheaven Battlefield.No matter how chaotic the Human Realm was, it was still the heartland of humanity. It was a place of rules and regulations. Safe shelter could be found very easily. But in the Allheaven Battlefield, danger was everywhere the moment one stepped out of the main headquarters, even if one remained in the eastern sector.
It wasn't like situations where some myriad race geniuses entered the eastern sector to carry out a massive slaughter had never happened before. And if one was unlucky enough to stumble upon an enemy Sunmoon and die in one hit, there also wasn't anything one could do.
That was a lawless place. There, one wouldn't only be faced with opponents of the same level. That was not an academy. Regardless of how big of a genius a Cloudbreach might be, one would still be helpless when encountering an enemy Sunmoon.
"Why is this kid trying to enter the battlefield? He really doesn't know how good he has it here."
Wouldn't it be good for him to remain in Great Ming? Just what was that kid thinking? Things might not be that bad if one stayed with the army. The level of danger was the highest for lone travelers. Of course, lone travelers were also the scariest group of people in the Allheaven Battlefield. These people were mostly super experts or geniuses out to train themselves.
While Ye Hongyan was deep in thought, she suddenly raised her brow. After the advancement of one character, a second character of Su Yu had advanced into the fourth tier as well.
The second character to break through caught Su Yu by surprise. It was not the lightning or deceit character. Rather, it was the fire character. How surprising. It wasn't even the fire of inheritance. Instead, it was the fire of the five elements. The fire he had used for weaponsmithing.
When that character broke through, Su Yu was momentarily stunned. He hadn't even formed this character for long. It had only appeared during his previous advancement. Subsequently, it had entered the second tier. And not long ago, it had entered the third tier after absorbing some character intent from the Sunmoon characters he crushed.
And before he knew it, that character had reached the fourth tier. This was completely out of his expectations. But it was also understandable. After all, he had been focusing on weaponsmithing recently. That character had benefited greatly from his many weaponsmithing sessions.
When weaponsmithing, each success would benefit the characters used greatly. Of the five elemental characters, the others were still at the third tier. Meanwhile, the fire character had surpassed the others to become his second fourth-tier character.
"The fire character feels quite strong after the breakthrough. Should I disguise myself as a member of the divine fire race? Or perhaps a different divine or devil race related to fire?"
Su Yu wanted to assume the identity of a divine or a devil. Even the identity of an immortal was acceptable to him. His main requirement was a humanoid race. Some races were too different from humans so it would be hard to disguise himself as one of them.
But most divines and devils came with their unique inheritances and legacies. A lot of them knew each other. It was quite difficult to assume the identity of one of them. Furthermore, the human race would be there to create trouble during the dao affirmation of divines and devils.
Yes. The human race was not the only race suffering from interruptions during breakthroughs. Every race was suffering from the same issue. It would be hilarious if a bunch of humans appeared to stop him when he tried to affirm his dao as a divine or a devil.
While he was thinking about all that, the second character continued its breakthrough. And before long, the breakthrough was complete.
After a while, the third character advanced. This time, the character was keeping an extremely low profile. Its aura only warped for a split second before fading into nothingness. It was barely detectable, as though nothing had happened, but Su Yu was sure that the deceit character had broken through.
Su Yu really couldn't understand why even this character could advance. He could only pretend this character did not exist. This character had always been like this. It would suddenly grow for no apparent reason. Su Yu told himself that he only needed to get used to it.
With three characters completing their advancement, the other characters would not be able to advance anytime soon. But a few of his other characters had also broken through to the third tier from the second tier.
Su Yu was greatly pleased to see the progress of the vibrate character. This was a natural character he had formed when he was helping Old Zhao with weaponsmithing. It had rapidly reached the second tier.
Not long ago when Su Yu was weaponsmithing in the spring, he had sensed that this character was near breakthrough. And sure enough, it had completed its advancement into the third tier moments ago.
Great Han King's strength character, Great Yuan King's battle character, and Great Zhou King's calm character had all reached the third tier as well. These were the characters that were at the second tier right after formation. They had taken this opportunity to break through as well.
Great Song King's meld character had yet to advance. It was probably still too new. One character after another completed its advancement.
Initially, Ye Hongyan was indifferent. But the expression on her face started turning odd. Just how many characters did this kid have? It didn't matter if he had a lot. But why were his characters breaking through like no tomorrow? Some were advancing to the fourth tier and some were advancing to the third tier. Was character advancement so simple?
This damn kid was only a fresh Cloudbreach!
In recent years, very few cultural researcher geniuses had emerged. Wu Qi of Great Xia could be considered one of the best that had appeared recently. But the truly strong ones were warriors like Huang Teng.
Was this kid going to singlehandedly reverse the recent decline of cultural researchers? Humanity only had itself to blame for the decline of its cultural researchers.
The multiple character faction had been crippled. As for the other factions, some were never good at combat while some were merely strong but not as outstanding as warriors in combat. The single character faction was one such faction.
"Is the multiple character faction going to rise again?"
Ye Hongyan sighed. In terms of excellence, her nephew, Ye Batian, would be the most excellent of all multiple character cultivators. And Su Yu hailed from her nephew's line. Alas, things were no longer the same.
If Ye Batian had not died, Liu Wenyan, Hong Tan, Xia Yunji, and the others would definitely be shining brightly today. Some of them might have reached the late-stage Sunmoon Realm already. A lot of things could change in fifty years.
Thinking about her nephew and looking at Su Yu, the image of her nephew seemed to be overlapping with Su Yu. She couldn't help but recall the scene back when her nephew went to the Allheaven Battlefield for the first time.
There, he slaughtered countless opponents and shook the Myriad Realms.
There, he became the hope of all human cultural researchers.
There, he became the first future Invincible cultural researcher of humanity.
With unrivaled dominance, he swept through the Myriad Realms.
She still remembered how each time he returned from the Allheaven Prefecture, he would be accompanied by cheers from the millions of soldiers stationed here. All the human experts present would smile in a gratified manner, and even Invincibles would show up to welcome him. He would walk out of the portal while talking and laughing with Invincibles as equals.
At that time, the Ye Family shone like the sun in the sky due to Ye Batian alone. But someone so domineering and valiant had ultimately died without even his corpse intact after failing his dao affirmation. Ye Hongyan would never forget the day Great Xia King returned with his remains.
The Allheaven Prefecture became as silent as a graveyard. Silence enveloped the entire Human Realm. Despair, disappointment, helplessness, and indignation assaulted numerous human Invincibles.
After that event, Great Qin King stood alone at the border of the human territory in the Allheaven Battlefield for more than ten days. Not a single word was said. Every single intruder was killed during that time. Even the myriad race Invincibles were forced to withdraw their forces from the eastern sector for a period of time.
The death of Ye Hongyan's nephew had also caused many people to give up. It was simply too hard for someone to affirm their dao as a cultural researcher.
Numerous thoughts occupied Ye Hongyan's mind. She looked at Su Yu and muttered, "I hope you don't become the next Ye Batian. After all, even the second coming of Ye Batian has been crippled."
She was referring to Liu Wenyan. That young man, no, back then, when he was still a young man, was a high-spirited and heroic individual. But when she met him again not long ago, he was already a frail old man. Grief gripped her heart when she saw him.
She still remembered the scene back then when Ye Batian showed Liu Wenyan to her. Back then, both teacher and student were incredibly proud and domineering. Everyone in the Ye Family adored Liu Wenyan. But so what? He became a beast trapped in a cage for fifty years while the Liu Family was destroyed.
"Sigh."
If Bai Feng was skipped, all three generations starting from Ye Batian seemed to have all suffered considerably. It did not seem like things would end well for any of them. The more Ye Hongyan thought, the more sorrowful she became. Could nobody from her nephew's line obtain a good end?
