Tribulation of Myriad Races-Chapter 1167: Gathering In Nanyuan (2)

At the same time.

News of multiple character faction's journey to Nanyuan started spreading. These people were coming from the capital to search for the so-called ruin. The area around Su Yu's house had been fully surrounded by several Sunmoons from the Martial Dragon Guard. Nobody was allowed to approach.

Somewhere else.

A dark shadow was moving under the darkness of night before vanishing with a flicker. Immediately after, a figure appeared where the shadow had vanished and muttered, "Chen Yong...he sure is fast."

This individual had spent a lot of time hunting for Chen Yong, but Chen Yong had too many trump cards up his sleeve. There were a few close calls before this, but each time, Chen Yong was able to escape.

Looking in the direction Chen Yong had vanished, the unknown individual smiled, "Nanyuan?"

So Chen Yong was heading to Nanyuan as well. Clearly, even Chen Yong had heard of what was happening there.

"Nanyuan, is it?"

With that thought, the unknown individual vanished into thin air. He had decided to head toward Nanyuan as well.

Countless geniuses were heading toward Nanyuan.

A ruin had appeared!

It was related to the multiple character faction!

Also at the same moment.

A massive ball of light floated amid the boundless void. That was the Human Realm. Just like how Great Xia King would frequently wait near the Divine Realm, multiple incomparably powerful individuals had appeared in the boundless void near the Human Realm.

There were several paths one could take to enter the Human Realm. The realm entrances were the safest and hardest to detect. But one could also force their way in from the boundless void. But this would attract a lot of attention and it was also much harder.

Doing this was basically the same as shattering space forcefully. And the space of a major realm was not something a regular Invincible could shatter. An expert stood on the other side of the realm barrier.

"Bring it on." A cold voice spread through the realm barrier. It was Great Ming King. He said, "Let me see if all of you are really so indifferent to death."

"Great Ming King, the realm barrier isn't easy to break, but the Human Realm has multiple realm entrances. Why don't you step aside and let us in? That way, the Human Realm will suffer less damage."

Great Ming King did not give a reply.

He knew these people wouldn't dare to actually enter. He also knew that they were only here to keep him occupied. The ones truly entering would do so through the many realm entrances without arousing any attention.

The ones actually revealing themselves were the ones without the courage to enter. Of course, if Great Ming King decided to ignore them and leave, these people might suddenly find themselves a lot more courageous than before.

***

Things were starting to grow chaotic.

However, that wasn’t Su Yu’s concern at the moment. He was aware that some people were observing the group in secret. He believed that anyone attempting to intercept this group would be a super expert.

"Elder, be on alert."

First Profound nodded. Suddenly, Su Yu noticed something. But he suppressed his urge to take action. More than ten masked individuals had appeared and charged toward Hong Tan's group. The stronger ones among them were Mountainseas while the weaker ones were Skysoars.

Su Yu frowned. Were these people here to throw their lives away? These people were far from enough to deal with Hong Tan's group. Why were they even here? Sure enough, nobody from Hong Tan's group even needed to do something. With a casual sweep of Zhao Rui's spear, all the masks attackers died.

Su Yu frowned again. Was it this simple? It would be understandable for Skysoars to be clueless about the potential danger here, but could those Mountainseas also be so clueless? Wasn't this the same as throwing their lives away?

While Su Yu was deep in thought, First Profound sent him a voice transmission, "Those are suicide soldiers, pushed to their current cultivation levels through special methods instead of proper cultivation."

Su Yu asked doubtfully, "What's the point of sending them here?"

Even if these weren't proper cultivators, it couldn't have been easy to produce even one Mountainsea. Why throw their lives away just like that? In Su Yu's opinion, one had to send super experts and launch a sudden yet ferocious attack if one wanted to eliminate Hong Tan's group.

He couldn't understand what the mastermind was thinking. While he was still confused, the corpses of the suicide soldiers started exploding, creating a massive cloud of fog.

Suddenly, Wu Yuehua shouted, "Avoid that! Damn it, it's corpse venom!"

Su Yu wasn't familiar with poison, nor did he know how powerful this poison was.

But that wasn't the case for First Profound. He said, "Keep your distance. This poison is as dangerous as death qi. It is extremely corrosive, and it's capable of corroding even source qi and sea of willpower."

Su Yu frowned. Poison? He knew there were poison masters in the Human Realm. Wu Yuehua might be a pillmaster, but she could also serve as a poison master when required.

Was this poison really that terrifying? Curious, he reached out toward the drifting poisonous fog in front of him. No matter how powerful a poison was, it wouldn't be able to instantly kill a Sunmoon. There would have been a lot more poison masters in the world if poison was so powerful.

A tiny strand of poison entered Su Yu's body. It seemed to have a preference for his acupoints.

With a frown, Su Yu focused on the strand. But after a moment, he was shocked by his discovery. He destroyed the strand of poison before saying, "Not bad. It is enough to kill Mountainseas. I finally understand the purpose of those weaklings. This poison was produced through the source qi and life force of those suicide soldiers."

First Profound replied, "Exactly. I reckon the mastermind does not have any Sunmoon suicide soldiers. At the Sunmoon level, this poison would be a lot more effective."

Su Yu nodded. But it wouldn't be so easy to produce Sunmoon suicide soldiers. He said nothing, but he spoke to the little furball in his sea of willpower, "Memorize the smell of this poison. That poison master is probably nearby." These fellows seemed to have grown smarter nowadays. They had learned to use poison from concealment instead of revealing themselves when attacking.

Quite a decent number of people in Hong Tan's group were Mountainseas. Wave after wave of pill qi erupted from Wu Yuehua's body to wear down the poison around them. She was turning more and more pale as she contended against the poisonous fog. Evidently, this wasn't an easy task for her.

As for Zhou Rui and the others, they could only keep the poisonous fog away by releasing bursts of source qi. Was the hidden enemy trying to exhaust them to death? Su Yu was unsure. But he also couldn't be bothered to figure out the truth.

It was time to let the dog...no, let the furball out.

This chapt𝒆r is updated by frёewebηovel.cѳm.

The little furball was very sensitive to smell, especially anything related to willpower. A poison master was also a form of cultural researcher. A warrior would never be able to produce a poison like this. And as long as one was a user of willpower, it wouldn't be easy for one to hide from the little furball.

With Su Yu's command, the little furball shot out of his head.

Looking at the furball who had vanished into thin air, First Profound exclaimed in shock, "The ancient soul devourer race?"

"You know this race as well, Elder?"

"Yes. This is an incredible race. Be very careful. Back then, an Invincible from this race killed a divine Invincible with one move. That might be the Emperor of this race. Try not to provoke that fellow."

"I already did that. This little furball is the son of that guy. I think."

"..."

Silence.

First Profound was rendered completely speechless. How...brazen.

"You're too rash. I'm warning you. According to some people in the pavilion, that person might be an ancient Invincible. Of course, we're unsure if this is the same person as their Pseudo Emperor during the ancient past. If that's the same person, he might even be as strong as the Pseudo Emperors of the divines and devils. Not even Great Qin King could be his match."

"It's fine. I'm the lord of the ancient cities. I have thirty-six ancient Invincibles under my command."

"..."

Holy shit!

Once again, First Profound was rendered speechless.

At this moment, the little furball sent Su Yu a voice transmission, "Yummy, faster. There's a smelly guy ahead. I can smell him."

How dependable. Su Yu praised inwardly. Sure enough, a foodie was the most dependable when distinguishing smell. It was perfectly logical for a poison master to be smelly.

Just as Su Yu and First Profound left, Zhao Rui looked around with a frown, seemingly having sensed something. He looked at the previous spot of Su Yu and First Profound as he accumulated his strength in preparation for a sudden fight.

***

A few kilometers away, three experts were waiting silently amid the woods. They waited patiently while looking at the cloud of poisonous fog far in the distance.

"Poison Venerable, will the Mountainsea poison work on them? Wu Yuehua is a top-tier pillmaster. She can dissolve a poison of this level."

Among them was a cloaked old man. With a hoarse voice, the old man spoke, "We're only told to exhaust them and check if they have hidden protectors. Everything else is unrelated to us." He patted the black-clothed individual beside him and said, "Little Seven, you'll go later. Even if you can't kill Zhao Rui, make sure to tire him out."

"Yes."

Little Seven's voice was just as hoarse. The masked individual to the other side of the old man, also the one who had asked the question earlier, grumbled inwardly that the so-called Little Seven had been refined into a puppet. Why was the old man conversing with his puppet?

That puppet could not even be considered a living person anymore. Surprisingly, that puppet had the aura of an early Sunmoon. This was also the trump card of the poison master. With this puppet, he would be able to produce poison at the level of Sunmoon. Poison of that level could trouble even an expert like Zhao Rui. Naturally, this would pose even more threat to Hong Tan and the others.

***

At the same time, Su Yu and First Profound arrived.

After scanning the area, Su Yu raised his brow. He could see three individuals, but his jade only sensed two individuals. One was a Mountainsea while the other was a Sunmoon. The Sunmoon was probably at the first-stage Sunmoon. This was the cloaked man in the middle of the group, and most likely the poison master involved in the attack. Beside the Sunmoon was a Mountainsea.

As for the black-clothed individual to the other side of the cloaked individual, this individual was not reflected on the Perception Jade. But Su Yu could feel the aura of a Sunmoon coming from this person. Just as he was confused, First Profound said, "That's a suicide soldier as well, but his sea of willpower has collapsed. You can consider him half-dead."

Understanding dawned on Su Yu.

First Profound asked, "So? Do we kill them?"

"We kill."

Su Yu gave a simple reply. What else were they supposed to do? First Profound said nothing else and appeared behind the poison master with a flicker. Seemingly having noticed something, black aura started surging out of the poison master's body. But before anything could happen, the poison master was slapped into pieces by First Profound.

No moon was falling from the sky. With a flicker, the little furball rammed into a translucent ball. Then, the furball opened his mouth wide, preparing to feast on his catch.
