Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 159: Inheritance (2)

After Su Yu left, Bai Feng took several deep breaths before calming himself further. After thinking about it, he dialed a number.

"Martial Uncle..."

"You're still not giving up? Are you really trying to die?"

Bai Feng gloomily said, "No, Martial Uncle. Listen to me. That wasn't what I meant. I only wanted to ask about Su Yu. Did you give him anything?"

"What do you mean?"

"Cough, uhm, the Divine Character grandteacher left behind..."

"Piss off! You dare mention that again?" Liu Wenyan raged, "Bai Feng, looks like you're really not giving up. Fine. Today, I'll get someone to look for you. Don't think that I can't do anything to you."

"Martial Uncle, Martial Uncle, don't hang up! Listen to me!" Bai Feng hurriedly explained, "I'm being serious. Did you give that Divine Character to Su Yu?"

"No. Give up. I won't give it to anyone before I die."

"Really?"

"Try saying one more word about that Divine Character and see what happens."

Bai Feng was still unconvinced. He asked, "Martial Uncle, have you really not given him anything?

"I'll get someone to beat you up. Did you set your eyes on Su Yu?"

Bai Feng hurriedly explained, "No, Martial Uncle. Su Yu is abnormal! That kid...is very abnormal! He can cultivate by absorbing blood essence!"

"Cultivate by absorbing blood essence?" Liu Wenyan asked in astonishment, "Didn't he get his blood character from your willpower text? That's a normal ability. Why are you asking me this?"

Bai Feng was speechless. Was he incredible enough to write such a willpower text? Why had he never realized that before? Was that as simple as absorbing blood essence to cultivate? No! He was...well, it was hard to explain, but that blood character was really incredible! After thinking about it, Bai Feng decided to keep the racial abilities a secret.

If even he felt like dissecting Su Yu, more people would feel like doing so as well if what Su Yu could do spread. Furthermore, this might not be a secure connection. Some bastard could very well be listening in to their conversation.

"Martial Uncle, if grandteacher's Divine Character isn't with Su Yu, does that mean that all of Su Yu's achievements can only be attributed to himself?"

"Of course." At this point, Liu Wenyan finally realized something. He stopped fuming and asked, "Is he fine?"

"He's doing very well!" Bai Feng exhaled and said, "Very well, in fact! But he's too poor. Martial Uncle, I'm broke as well. Maybe...cough, maybe you should...cough, tell that person and get her to lend us ten thousand or so merit points?"

"Do you want to die?"

"Martial Uncle, we're really broke! Our entire faction is broke! Apart from the research center, we have nothing left!"

Bai Feng felt very aggrieved. They really had nothing left! And it wasn't even his fault this time! All their wealth had been used to protect his senior brother's position. He had to plug the hole in the depository in case his senior brother ended up audited. He had already sold everything he could. He was so broke that he probably couldn't even afford a meal anymore.

"You have nothing left?"

"Yes!"

Liu Wenyan sank into deep thought. After a while, he slowly said, "Were you guys targeted again?"

"Yeah."

"Who's the culprit? Wan or Zhou?"

"Zhou."

"That bastard needs a beating," said Liu Wenyan. "I've never liked that fellow. His student...that Yuming something fellow was beaten hundreds of times by me back then. I heard he's already a Mountainsea cultivator. You guys are completely worthless. None of you are in the Mountainsea Realm. You deserve to be bullied!"

...

Bai Feng was left speechless. He was still young. He wasn't even 30 yet! Why was his martial uncle saying those things to him all the time?

After cursing about for a bit, Liu Wenyan said, "Ignore them. If ignoring doesn't work, whoop their ass. You can whoop the asses of all Skysoars under them. Get your senior brother to whoop the asses of all Cloudbreachs under them. Whack them until they shut up. If that old man dares to get involved, I'll get backup for you guys. Hong Tan is a fool for leaving at this time. No wonder you guys are being bullied."

"Martial Uncle...that won't work," said Bai Feng helplessly. "They have thousands of people in their faction. If we really do that, we won't even have any time to cultivate or research anymore."

"You can only blame yourselves for being so useless! Why are you guys getting weaker and weaker each year?"

Liu Wenyan spoke bluntly, "The tragedy was our fault. Because of us, the multiple character faction was dealt a massive blow. But didn't we all leave without taking anything? All our resources, willpower texts, blood essence, and secret grottos were left behind. With our departure, Wan Tiansheng promised to stop targeting the ones left behind. You have no one to blame but yourself for being so useless."

The more Liu Wenyan spoke, the angrier he became, "When I left, the multiple character faction still had over 100 members. It has been 50 years. Where are our people? They are all gone. Who else can be as useless as you guys? Damn it! Both you and your teacher are idiots!"

Bai Feng helplessly said, "Martial Uncle, we have no choice. The cultivation of our faction has never been easy. We need a lot of resources and talent..."

"Nonsense! If either you or your senior brother can reach the Mountainsea Realm, you will get whatever you want! If Hong Tan can go beyond the Mountainsea Realm, none of this would have happened! They are only doing this because they see you guys as trash. You guys are only good at consuming resources without producing anything in return. You guys should reflect on yourself! Without showing sufficient value, why should others help you?"

Liu Wenyan snorted coldly, "Hong Tan has actually gotten himself stuck at the eighth-stage Mountainsea Realm after 50 years. I did not expect that. Even if he can't go beyond the realm, he should have reached the ninth-stage already. No wonder he was the most useless person out of all of us back then. All the geniuses were crippled, leaving a piece of trash in the leadership position. If even one of people like Zhao Mingyue and Xia Yunji had remained, the faction wouldn't have fallen so low!"

/p>

Bai Feng did not say anything. He was somewhat absent-minded as he listened to his martial uncle. In truth, his teacher himself would also say something similar at times. If even one of those geniuses had remained, the multiple character faction wouldn't have been in a much better position.

That golden age was also a time where all those geniuses dazzled the entirety of humanity with their brilliance. A bunch of youngsters below the Skysoar Realm were shining so brightly that their influence spread across the entire human race. That was a glorious era.

Unfortunately, the fifth principal was felled in battle, bringing the golden age to an end. After that incident, they no longer had any high-end experts. At the same time, their genius successors were all stuck below the Skysoar Realm. At that point, the academy ran out of patience. Great Xia ran out of patience as well.

More and more geniuses had joined the multiple character faction. Even without the fifth principal around, those young geniuses were still present. Liu Wenyan, Zhao Mingyue, Xia Yunji, and the others were still around. They were still illuminating the entire Human Realm with their brilliance.

They were capable of killing Skysoar cultivators as Mental Tempering Stage cultivators. Everyone was waiting for them to reach the Skysoar Realm. Everyone believed that they could reach the ninth-stage Skysoar Realm in one day after willpower materialization. Everyone believed that they would be able to fight those in the Cloudbreach or even the Mountainsea Realm after reaching the Skysoar Realm.

Everyone was looking forward to them going beyond the Mountainsea Realm. Everyone believed that one or even multiple Invincible experts would rise among them. To be crowned as Kings.

Only those in the Invincible Realm could be crowned as Kings.

Alas, the golden age had come to an end.

Every time Bai Feng was reminded of that age, he would be all fired up. He might be talented, a freak among his peers, but he was still a tad bit lacking compared to the legendary figures of that golden age.

At the very least, he still didn't have the confidence to face Cloudbreach cultivators in battle. Thus, even with Liu Wenyan's lower cultivation level, Bai Feng still respected him deeply, silently taking the string of verbal abuse from Liu Wenyan.

Bai Feng started choking with emotions as he asked, "Martial Uncle...can't you be cured?"

"Hmm?"

Liu Wenyan was unused to the gentle side of Bai Feng. He rolled his eyes and said, "What do you mean by that? Are you trying to say that I'm sick?"

"No, that's not what I mean..." Bai Feng sighed and said, "Martial Uncle, why don't you abandon that Divine Character. You might be able to reclaim your past glory without that Divine Character dragging you down."

"Scram!" Liu Wenyan roared, "I knew it! You still have your eyes on my Divine Character! Unless I die, I will not let go of that Divine Character! This Divine Character is my teacher's life's work! This...is also the life's work of all of us from that era."

Liu Wenyan's tone turned gloomy as he said, "I still remember every single one of the 116 geniuses from the multiple character faction that was expelled back then. Many of them are already dead. Some died from old age, some fell to sickness, some died on the battlefield. Very few of us are still alive. I'm warning you. I won't spare you if you keep setting your eyes on this Divine Character!"

"I didn't!"

Bai Feng was helpless. He really had no interest in that Divine Character. Neither did he have the courage to take it. Did Liu Wenyan think that Bai Feng was as fearless as him?

It hadn't been easy for Bai Feng to reach the seventh-stage Skysoar Realm. He had no intention of taking on that Divine Character and be crippled as well. That would be too miserable.

"You better be speaking the truth." Liu Wenyan said, "Just hang on as long as you can. There is already no hope for our generation. Maybe things can be different for the future generation. Our path can't be erased. Even if you have to struggle, you must survive. I refuse to believe that the multiple character faction can't rise again!"

Bai Feng said nothing. When the call ended, Bai Feng rubbed his face. Again and again, they were told to hang on. He might sound confident in front of Su Yu, claiming that they were the villains challenging everyone, but the truth was that their life was getting more and more difficult.

"Su Yu...hopefully you can be the change..."

Consuming blood essence to unleash racial abilities. Forming a Divine Character after reading a willpower text once. That kid was born to be a part of the multiple character faction. He looked up and sent his senses upward. When he sensed that the kid was cultivating again, he smiled.

The kid was hardworking, tenacious, and talented as well. If even someone like that couldn't rise to prominence, nobody could.

"We can no longer reclaim our glory from 50 years ago. How about you?"

...

At the same time.

Nanyuan.

After hesitating for a bit, Liu Wenyan dialed a number. When the call connected, he didn't wait for the other person to speak before saying, "Bai Feng and the others are at their limits. Give them some help."

"Are you begging me again?"

"Nonsense. Who's begging you? Help Bai Feng and the others, not me. Do whatever you want. Bye."

The call ended.

Liu Wenyan exhaled deeply. Yeah, he wasn't the one begging for help. Yeap. That person was the one insisting on helping. And Bai Feng and the others were the one receiving the help, not him.

…

Great Xia Cultural Research Academy.

Within a large villa near the Heart Cultivating Pavilion, Wu Yuehua ended the call with a smile on her face, "You're still as arrogant as ever. A day will come when you come begging me for help."
