Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 919: Eleventh On Heaven Index, Su Yu (3)

Meanwhile, Su Yu was hiding inside a random building.

Mountainbreak bull (Third-stage Mountainsea)

Racial abilities: Mountainbreak (activate with blood essence)

...

He had just upgraded his mountainbreak bull page to the third-stage Mountainsea Realm. He was rejoicing that he had not tried to upgrade it to a higher level. This was probably his current limit.

His body had nearly exploded after he consumed a drop of third-stage Mountainsea blood essence. His physical body had clearly not reached the level capable of withstanding such strength.

"Third-stage Mountainsea...this is probably as strong as thirty thousand acupoints."

He only knew that a first-stage Mountainsea would have the strength of ten thousand acupoints. A fifth-stage Mountainsea at the Vanguard Regiment would have the strength fifty thousaand acupoints.

A seventh-stage Mountainsea would reach at least a hundred thousand acupoints in strength. In that case, a third-stage Mountainsea would probably have the strength of roughly thirty thousand acupoints.

Su Yu was feeling very thankful that he had not rashly tried to consume a drop of fourth-stage Mountainsea blood essence. This was already his limit. If he hadn't completed his seventeenth body forging not long ago, he wouldn't have been able to even withstand the power of the third-stage Mountainsea blood essence.

"What a pity. I still have the blood essence of an eighth-stage Sunmoon on me."

Previously, he had received the complete corpse of a divine skywing from Great Xia. If he could withstand it, a single drop of blood essence would grant him the strength of an eighth-stage Sunmoon. With that level of strength, he could probably kill anyone he wanted in the city.

That was his true trump card. Alas, using it now would only cause him to burst apart and die.

***

Done consuming the blood essence, Su Yu left the building.

Meanwhile, his clone was still busy luring the mystic armors and immortals all over the city. The one hour he bought from the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion would end soon. He checked the time and confirmed that he had about twenty minutes remaining.

"Instantanous strength of a third-stage Mountainsea..."

His speed was still lacking.

Only his strength had reached the level of a third-stage Mountainsea while his speed still lagged behind. But there was nothing he could do about it. He was mainly worried about Final Armor, the peak Mountainsea in the group. Without him, he would be much less wary of them.

"With the strength of a third-stage Mountainsea and the Sky Sundering Saber...it won't be that hard to kill a Mountainsea, right?"

There were still four mystic armor Mountainseas in the city.

They were respective Final Armor the peak Mountainsea, Silver Armor the sixth-stage Mountainsea, Broken Armor the third-stage Mountainsea, and Flame Armor the first-stage Mountainsea.

Out of the six Mountainseas they had stationed in the city, only two had perished so far. Apart from Final Armor and Silver Armor, Su Yu was confident he could deal with the rest of them.

"My body forging is still too slow."

Su Yu grumbled. Even after his rapid improvements during the past few days, it still felt way too slow for him. Who was the bastard who had lied to him back then that Skysoars could safely explore the Allheaven Battlefield?

He had completely neglected the fact that nobody would rush into an ancient city not long after entering the Allheaven Battlefield like him. In fact, most newcomers wouldn't even enter the Plain of Desires. Skysoars could actually do quite well if they remained inside the human territory.

Su Yu had basically entered the stomping grounds of experts and super geniuses. It would naturally be dangerous.

"I can probably kill the third-stage Mountainsea if I catch him by surprise. But how can I ensure a safe retreat after killing him?"

For him, killing the Mountainsea wasn't the hard part. Rather, withdrawing safely after the kill was the main issue troubling him.

"What if I target the immortal fairy instead of the Mountainsea? Escape routes..."

Su Yu started thinking of ways he could escape a peak Mountainsea.

"I guess I don't need to be too worried. I only need to lure him away from the group. Well, that's a job for my clone..."

He was busy looking for a suitable ambush location. He wasn't going to hide in the air. Rather, he was planning to hide on the ground. He would hide on the roof of a suitable building and cut his target down with one strike before fleeing into the alleys. That would allow him to easily escape them, but he had to ensure that Final Armor wouldn't be around if he wanted that to work.

As for Dao Cheng...well, he didn't have the confidence to kill that fellow. That was someone who once killed a fifth-stage Mountainsea. That was a freak.

"In that case, I'll kill a third-stage Mountainsea first. That will get me a heavenly reward. If I could receive something helpful for my body forging like the golden light I received previously, it would be even better. That was so much better than receiving some heavenly source qi."

With his mindset, Su Yu continued looking for a suitable ambush location. He needed a place packed with occupied buildings. It would even be better if there was a death spirit there that could help him mask his presence better.

***

Dao Cheng and the others were still following the paper crane.

Suddenly, Dao Cheng said, "He's luring us all over the city. He might have discovered what we're doing. Be alert, everyone. Try not to separate at any cost. Su Yu is strong enough to kill first-stage Mountainseas, and that might not even be his full strength. Try to stick with me and Brother Final Armor."

Final Armor solemnly declared, "So long as we can surround him, his death is assured. I refuse to believe he's strong enough to kill me."

Not even Mo Duona was strong enough to kill him, much less Su Yu. Dao Cheng nodded, but he said nothing. That might be true. Even if Su Yu was strong, he wouldn't be so insanely strong. He had to be as strong as a pseudo Sunmoon to kill Final Armor. If he was really so strong with his current cultivation level, not even Invincibles would be able to stay calm anymore.

Su Yu was too fast. But gradually, they discovered that he had slowed down. Ahead of them was a dark and messy housing area. The paper crane was caught in Dao Cheng's hand, but it was constantly trying to fly toward a certain dark corner ahead of them.

Final Armor was overjoyed. That human had finally stopped running! The characters above Dao Cheng's palm started spinning rapidly as he made another divination. This had always been a specialty of his.

"Not much danger is detected ahead of us..."

The result caused Dao Cheng to frown. Not much danger? Was Su Yu really trapped ahead of them? This was the sole positive result he had received from his divinations tonight.

Final Armor was growing impatient. He asked through voice transmission, "How is it?"

"There is no danger ahead of us."

"In that case, let us surround and take him down."

Final Armor grew excited. There was no danger!

Good!

He was quite confident in Dao Cheng's divinations. But Dao Cheng was still frowning. He made yet another divination. After performing so many divinations in a single night, he was starting to feel drained. Helpless, he settled with divining his own well-being. But he kept receiving the same result. There was no danger.

After some thought, he performed a divination on the fate of the first-stage Mountainsea. And the result was...no danger as well. He proceeded to perform a divination on Jiu Xuan. She was in no danger as well.

At this point, he was starting to get the urge to cough a mouthful of blood. He had performed too many divinations in succession, to the point his characters were on the verge of collapse. He had to stop.

There was no danger for the weakest Mountainsea, himself, and Jiu Xuan. Taking all that into consideration, he sent a voice transmission, "We better stick together. Don't get too far from each other. We will surround him from the front and the back. Brother Final Armor, pay attention to our surroundings lest he has actually abandoned his index copy..."

Before he could finish, a distant silhouette seemed to have noticed something and hurriedly dashed away from them.

"Go!"

Final Armor finally lost his patience. They had lost two Mountainseas and multiple Cloudbreaches in the span of one night without achieving anything. How would he allow Su Yu to escape him so easily? He was very determined to kill this human.

When Dao Cheng saw Final Armor charging ahead, he clenched his teeth and did the same. Jiu Xuan was also sticking closely to Final Armor. They moved toward the dark silhouette at a rapid speed.

Dao Cheng was not worried about the others who were left behind. He was sure that they would be fine. After all, even the weakest Mountainsea was in no danger. As they increased their speed, sounds of their movements reverberated throughout the city.

The dark silhouette ahead of them seemed frightened as it moved even faster than before. In fact, its entire body started turning translucent, as though it was burning its life force just to gain more speed.

Behind them, the first-stage and third-stage Mountainseas were also giving chase alongside the Cloudbreaches. At the moment, they were flying past a tall building. This was the same building Final Armor had flown past earlier. He had not detected anything wrong with the building. Thus, they did not bother giving the building a second look.

Abruptly, a blinding white radiance erupted amid the dark sky. Su Yu placed all his strength behind his blade. One attack. Only one attack. However many that attack could kill, he would accept it.

This was his strongest attack. This was the strongest saber strike he had ever unleashed. The saber that splits the sky. It was as though the sky itself had been cut into two. He was also reinforcing his attack with his semi-opened yang acupoint, strength character, vibrate character, willpower, and Soul Expanding Hammer.

***

At the same time.

Mayor's residence.

Tian He, who was enjoying a bottle of liquor, suddenly looked in a certain direction and muttered, "Sky Sundering Saber!"

That technique was too familiar.

The saber that splits the sky.

Back then, he witnessed the same move from Great Xia King. The blue dome of heaven was split, and the Skyrend Valley came into existence.

Back then, he witnessed the same move from Xia Longwu. A Sunmoon death spirit was killed, and he himself was left dying.

Back then, he witnessed the same move from the eldest son of Great Xia King, who was also the father of Xia Longwu. A peak Sunmoon and multiple Sunmoons were killed with one slash.

Back then, he witnessed the same move from Ye Batian. With one slash, the world sank into silence. Sunmoons perished and Mountainseas wilted.

Today, he bore witness to the same move from a young genius. A genius from the younger generation of the human race.

The blinding radiance of the blade illuminated the entire city.

"Su Yu!"

Tian He muttered to himself. The blade of Xia Family was always so mesmerizing. Not a single individual capable of using this move was a weakling.

Spear of Qin. Blade of Xia. The two pillars of humanity.

***

At the same time, inside a large building. The purple-haired Mo Duona abruptly opened his eyes and went outside. A radiant blade entered his gaze.

He frowned slightly.

"Sky Sundering Saber!"

***

Whoosh!

Boom!

It was as though the sky was collapsing and the earth was rending.

Before the blade even finished its descent, all the Cloudbreaches and Skysoars in the area had disintegrated.

The first-stage Mountainsea roared and started fleeing with all his strength. The third-stage Mountainsea instantly activated his Arrmorize ability, but he was unable to flee since he was the target of the blade.

By the time the blade finished its descent, Su Yu had fled several kilometers away. The murderous blade landed.

Boom!

The incomparably durable armor instantly burst apart. Blood sprayed everywhere. A clump of shining cloud appeared several kilometers away. Almost as soon as it appeared, the cloud vanished alongside Su Yu.

Immediately after, a large number of death spirits spawned into existence. Even the death spirits that had been lured away by the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion reappeared in the area. Some of the buildings in the area had been damaged by the blade, but they returned to how they were before in mere moments.

A large amount of death qi flooded the city. At that moment, Final Armor had just stabbed his spear through a dark silhouette only to see the silhouette dispersing into nothingness. His expression changed abruptly as he looked behind him. Without any hesitation, he rushed in the direction where the shining cloud had appeared.

"Su Yu!"

A furious howl resounded in the sky.

Su Yu! He had killed Broken Armor! The third Mountainsea of the mystic armor race had perished. That was a third-stage Mountainsea. For the first time since the start of the operation, Final Armor started feeling fear.

Meanwhile, Dao Cheng grabbed Jiu Xuan and solemnly said, "Leave. We need to leave immediately."

They couldn't stay any longer in the city. That was too terrifying. In the span of only two days, Su Yu had grown from killing Cloudbreaches to killing a first-stage Mountainsea before proceeding to kill a third-stage Mountainsea.

They must leave. This was too dangerous. Dao Cheng's view of Su Yu was not the only thing changing. The Heaven Index was also undergoing a massive change. The people who were paying attention to the index watched as Su Yu's name rose rapidly to the eleventh place.

11th on Heaven Index.

Su Yu!

Killed a third-stage Mountainsea before. Nineteen. Human. First-stage Cloudbreach.

He had punched more than one major realm above him. He had skipped a total of eleven minor realms. And the person he had killed might not even be an ordinary Mountainsea. At that moment, the Myriad Realms were shocked.

At that moment, even the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion was shocked. He killed a third-stage Mountainsea?

With that accomplishment, even the eleventh place was too low for him. He had been restricted by his relatively low cultivation level. What would happen once he reached the seventh or eighth-stage Cloudbreach Realm? Would he be able to kill seventh or eighth-stage Mountainseas? Mo Duona was 192 years old. Converted to human age, he would be 22 years old.

Would Su Yu actually overtake Mo Duona? Countless people were alarmed. Instantly, Heavendoom City became the center of attention. The gazes of countless super experts were drawn to the city.
