Tribulation of Myriad Races

Su Yu sneaked a glimpse at Great Ming King's face. This was his first time actually seeing Great Ming King. The Invincible looked like a middle-aged man. This middle-aged man looked quite refined, fitting with his identity as a cultural researcher. But...there was some coarseness mixed with the refined bearing, making him look less easy-going than he was supposed to.

Yes. For Su Yu, a typical cultural researcher needed to be refined and easy-going. Meanwhile, this person before him felt like someone pretending to be refined.

Great Ming King was staring at Su Yu as well. After a long while, he helplessly said, "You're quite lucky to encounter me instead. I heard...you're very rich..."

Su Yu started trembling with fear.

"Forget it. I won't be robbing you. Uhm...when you die, remember to tell us the location of your remains and treasure trove."

It was improper to rob someone who was still alive. But this brat was so rich he would not be able to finish using his wealth even until his death. Thus, it was very important for the brat to tell them the location of his remains and treasure trove so that they could inherit his leftover wealth.

Great Ming King told himself that he was definitely not lusting after the kid's wealth. This was merely a kind offer to give the kid a proper burial.

Su Yu was left speechless. Was this Invincible really so desperate?

"Grandpa Zhu..."

"..."

Once again, Su Yu was left speechless. He tried to remember what he said previously. Right, he called this guy his adopted great-grandpa.

Oops. He had indeed accidentally increased his seniority.

"Uhm...can you let go of my head?"

It was way too terrifying to have an Invincible holding his head all the time. What if this fellow got overly excited thinking about his money and accidentally killed him? Invincibles were too strong. Su Yu did not even think of resisting. It was pointless.

"Grandpa Zhu, the others have entered the Human Realm as well. You need to hurry up and kill them. The more you kill, the more you can rob. If you can kill even the elders, I might be able to gain control over the businesses of several prefectures!"

That made so much sense. There was no need for Great Ming King to waste his time here.

As for this kid...whatever. Great Ming King didn't even know what to say anymore. Everyone thought that he was suffering in the ancient city. Meanwhile, he was back at Human Realm already.

Great Ming King tossed Su Yu away before vanishing, leaving his voice behind, "Since you're back, you may look for Zhu Tiandao for help. Don't run around doing stupid things."

With that, he was gone.

This was someone he couldn't rob or kill. Thus, he decided to not waste his time here. In fact, he was quite surprised when he noted the relatively low amount of death qi in Su Yu's body. Wasn't this kid supposed to be a mayor?

But he did not seem to be suffering much from the backlash of leaving the city. And it hadn't even been that long since the kid last sealed the city for half a month. How was the kid still perfectly fine?

If anyone told Great Ming King that the brat was going to die...he would not believe it anymore.

In fact, he suspected that the brat was healthy enough to live for a hundred or even a thousand more years. Everyone had been thinking too much.

Great Ming King was gone.

As for Su Yu, he wiped the nonexistent sweat on his forehead. That was terrifying. He was nearly pinched to death. He offered an insincere prayer to the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion members. An Invincible was personally hunting them down. How many of them would die?

Was First Profound Elder even alive? He offered another prayer to his elder.

Then, Su Yu rushed off. Shortly after, he landed somewhere in the wilderness and hid himself. After activating his patience character, he finally had the chance to check his messages.

"Profound Nine, you're assigned to Great Xia. If any accidents happen, Yellow Nine and the other white masks will take over in order of seniority. Wait for the Heavenly Hunt Index to establish its connection in the Human Realm."

They had yet to activate their communication network in the Human Realm. Thus, only a select number of people could be contacted at the moment.

Great Xia?

Great Xia was a dangerous place. Was Heavenly Hunt Pavilion not aware of that?

Why did he feel like the pavilion was simply sending him to his death?

Forget about Mountainseas, even Sunmoons would hardly survive in Great Xia. This place was only safe to him because he was Su Yu. What was this coincidence? After grumbling inwardly, Su Yu tried to contact his direct superior.

"Elder, are you dead?"

Even with the limited communication capacity, he could still contact his direct superior. After all, both of them were currently in the Human Realm. No reply came for a very long time.

Finally, when Su Yu thought that his elder was dead, a reply came, "You sure are good at preserving your life. I have a question. When a ninth-stage Sunmoon is chasing after you, how do you escape?"

"..."

Su Yu was rendered speechless. Why was the elder asking him that? Was someone chasing after the elder? And it was a ninth-stage Sunmoon?

How...unlucky.

"Elder, who's chasing after you?"

"I think it's Great Ming's prefect..."

He was unsure. First Profound was busy running for his life. It was already impressive of him to be able to reply while running from a ninth-stage Sunmoon.

"Great Ming's prefect?"

"I think so. Should I expose your identity and get him to let me off?"

"Uhm...cough, cough. Elder, I'm not very tight with Prefect Zhu."

No further reply came from First Profound. Clearly, he was still busy fleeing. As for Su Yu's claim, he was not buying that. He had investigated Su Yu before.

***

At the same time.

Above a mountain range, a faceless man appeared before vanishing with a flicker. Behind him, someone was nonchalantly flying over while laughing, "You won't be able to escape me. Wow. I actually found a faceless elder. An eighth-stage Sunmoon. This is such a big fish."

"Heavenseal!"

With a roar, the world spun and a moon appeared in the sky.

First Profound felt his vision swam before finding himself in a space of boundless white. With a roar, his life force surged as he blasted an opening in the air before fleeing.

Behind him, Zhu Tiandao looked surprised. This was quite a strong one. Yes, eighth-stage Sunmoons were strong. But very few of them could escape that move of his.

"Well, well. Looks like this is really a big fish. This must be a faceless mask with a rather high rank."

Zhu Tiandao laughed with joy.

Suddenly, First Profound looked behind and shouted, "Prefect Zhu, the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion is only here to do business! Why must you treat me with hostility?"

"Yeap. I'm hostile. What are you going to do about it?"

"I'm willing to pay for my safety."

"If I kill you, everything on your body will be mine."

"..."

First Profound cursed inwardly. Zhu Tiandao was such a troublesome person to deal with. He hurriedly said, "Do you want to learn more about Su Yu's current status?"

"Hmm?"

"I know him. We're very close. We're on the same side..."

"Heh."

Zhu Tiandao sneered. With a casual swing of his hand, countless characters were thrown out. Space instantly solidified, making escape even harder for First Profound. Desperate, First Profound sent a voice transmission, "I'm telling the truth. Su Yu is with me. If you doubt me, feel free to send him a voice transmission. He's back in the Human Realm. You can reach him through your voice transmission talisman. Ask him if First Profound is with him."

"..."

Zhu Tiandao was greatly surprised. Stop messing around. That guy was busy being a mayor in the Allheaven Battlefield.

He was suspicious, but he still made the attempt. If Su Yu was really in the Human Realm, it would work. Of course, it might still fail if Su Yu already destroyed his own voice transmission talisman. In that case, there was nothing he could do about it.

As he was thinking about all that, the message...got through!

Zhu Tiandao's heart thumped.

Next, Su Yu's reply came, "Prefect, it has been a while! That First Profound guy...cough, consider him my direct superior. If you kill him...I suggest capturing him alive instead. If he dies, they will assign a new elder above me. That will be very troublesome for me."

Su Yu replied!

Zhu Tiandao was very surprised. Like his old man, he had never expected that Su Yu would return.

First Profound was aware of Su Yu's identity?

Right, this was Su Yu's direct superior. Suddenly, Zhu Tiandao roared as his character soared into the sky. That kid was too careless.

How could he leak his identity? How could he let someone know that he was back? That wasn't a good thing. Numerous thoughts flashed past Zhu Tiandao's mind as he fully froze the space in his vicinity.

With a groan, First Profound blasted the frozen space apart and continued fleeing.

Zhu Tiandao might not be a Pseudo Invincible, but he was still a ninth-stage Sunmoon. This was an extremely difficult opponent to handle.

"Trying to leave?"

Zhu Tiandao snorted.

"The world shall fall under my control. Suppress!"

Boom!

Countless mountains rained down on the sky.

"The myriad dao are heartless. The myriad arts shall shift. Scatter!"

Rumble!

All the ambient source qi in the area instantly faded away. First Profound was alarmed to find that he had lost his connection to the ambient source qi in the area.

"Fire, rise!"

"Water, come!"

"Ice, freeze!"

"..."

As Zhu Tiandao chanted, the sky turned into a curtain of fire, the ground turned into an ocean, and snowflakes rained down from above.

One character after another was activated. Eventually, blood started seeping out of First Profound's mask.
