Tribulation of Myriad Races-Chapter 1337: Absolutely Devilish (1)

The addition of a death spirit into the match by Su Yu made the whole thing a lot more interesting. This was only the start. There were thirty-five more matches to go. The first-stage Skysoar death spirit might be weak, but the subsequent death spirits might no longer be weak.

Zhu Hongliang was one of the human combatants for this match. He was a first-stage Skysoar. He had entered the Skysoar Realm not long ago. He noted that apart from him, the only human participating in this match was someone from Great Qin, an expert who had emerged from the army.

Zhu Hongliang sent his fellow human a voice transmission, "After entering the city, find a place and hide yourself. Don't force anything. Don't kill anyone. Don't even pick a fight..." The other human glanced at him and frowned.

Not fighting?

Hiding?

Zhu Hongliang continued, "Just listen to me. We're too weak. The death qi in the city is too thick. First-stage Skysoars won't be able to last too long inside."

He tossed a storage ring over and continued, "I have some heavenly source qi in there. Use it to last longer in the city."

The other human looked at him in surprise. Why was Zhu Hongliang doing this?

Right at that moment, the white-haired divine king said, "Enter the city."

At that, numerous silhouettes charged into the city before scattering away. Of the participants, Su Yu's death spirit was the most conspicuous, with the shining circle on his head. Some of the stronger Skysoars started roaming the city in search of opponents.

The humans were their first picks. However, one of the human combatants was Zhu Hongliang. The Zhu Family might not be too good at fighting, but they were very good at everything else.

Right after entering the city, Zhu Hongliang tossed a pile of black mist into the air...

No, not mist.

When the people around him saw what he tossed, they all frowned.

The white-haired divine king snorted coldly and declared, "No summoners are allowed to participate in the next matches."

These humans loved playing these tricks too much.

The black mist scattered, transforming into countless ants before self-detonating. Then, over a thousand death spirits appeared in the city. The death qi density in the city surged.

Only then did the other human combatant understand the meaning of Zhu Hongliang's previous words. Now, the bigger challenge was not the other combatants. Rather, it was the thick death qi in the city.

For people at their cultivation level, even a tiny bit of death qi could prove fatal. Thus, the best option was to find a suitable hiding place and survive for half an hour. Those failing to last that long would naturally be eliminated from the competition.

As a combatant from Great Ming, Zhu Hongliang never intended to fight a proper battle with the other combatants. It wasn't like he could win if he tried. It would also be too tiring.

That was not all. Zhu Hongliang proceeded to take out a massive ring. That was a special product of Great Ming. It could be used as a portable fortress. He went inside and sat down cross-legged. With a strand of heavenly source qi in hand, he grinned. He only needed to outlast the others and he would have a slot to enter the mansion.

Outside the city.

Numerous people looked at Su Yu, including Mo Duona and the other young geniuses. Zhu Hongliang's actions reminded them of Su Yu. Back when he first emerged from the Human Realm, he was very fond of such tricks as well. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

He had killed countless sky devouring ants to fill the ancient city with death spirits.

Dao King frowned and said, "All summoners will be banned from the subsequent matches. Also, there are too many death spirits in the city. Mayor Su, switch to a different city for the next match. With so many death spirits, the subsequent combatants won't be able to fight properly."

They were willing to let this slide once. However, the death spirits were too troublesome to deal with. They had to do something about this.

Su Yu said, "Why are you so scared? Just get everyone to make more preparations. Won't this be a good trial for the combatants? I know that there is a death tunnel in the Luminous Domain Mansion as well. There will be quite a lot of death spirits in the mansion. If they can't even survive this, they will all die in the mansion."

That attracted numerous surprised gazes.

A minor race Invincible hesitated slightly and asked, "Mayor Su, are you saying that there is a death tunnel in the Luminous Domain Mansion as well?"

Su Yu nodded, "Don't you know this?"

"I...don't." Moge said, "It's normal that many don't know about this. But it's not something to worry about. The death tunnel is only connected to the fourth level and above. It's not like you guys can go that far. There is no need to worry."

At that, more people looked at Su Yu in surprise. How did he know so much about the Luminous Domain Mansion?

Su Yu beamed and said, "Don't look at me like that. I do know a lot. No matter what, I have the guidance of Pseudo Emperors from the ancient past. Unfortunately, I can't enter the mansion. After all, too many eyes are on me. I have no choice. What a pity."

Moge asked, "Are you not entering, Mayor Su?"

"Nope." Su Yu said, "I'm not brave enough. With so many people targeting me, entering is the same as throwing my life away. Of course, you still need to be careful lest I enter under a disguise. If you encounter me while I'm disguised, I might need to silence you by killing you."

Nobody could be sure whether he was telling the truth. They believed that it was quite likely for him to enter. However, they weren't sure.

Meanwhile, the first-stage Skysoars in the city were cursing furiously.

Fuck!

What was this?

Thousands of death spirits were spawned right after they entered the city. How were they supposed to proceed with the match? The death spirits were everywhere.

At this point, it was no longer a competition of combat strength. Rather, it was a competition of endurance and perhaps luck. The death spirits would wander randomly. However, they would still attack when they encountered living beings. That was what Su Yu had experienced when he first entered an ancient city.

Furthermore, they were truly quite weak as first-stage Skysoars. The death qi in the city was too dense for them to handle. The various Skysoars demonstrated all sorts of abilities to survive in the city. They might be mere first-stage Skysoars, but some of them were still quite impressive.

For example, Su Yu saw a metal elemental transforming into a tiny sword before attaching himself to a random signboard in the city. All the death spirits were leaving him alone.

There was also a shadow who had adhered himself to the shadow of a death spirit to avoid detection.

There was also a nether who had created a miniature nether domain that the death spirits were avoiding by sheer instinct.

There was also an immortal who was combating the death qi around him with his thick life force.

Some of the combatants were even more impressive. They were somehow able to ignore the death qi and attack the other combatants. Meanwhile, some of the combatants were forced to hide inside the ancient buildings.

All the combatants reacted differently to the situation in the city. A rainbow mask from the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion was even loudly peddling as he shouted, "Heavenly source qi for sale! Twenty heavenly hunt points per portion! Don't even dream of robbing me! You won't get anything!"

Curious, Su Yu looked at the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion's building on the island. As usual, everything seemed perfectly calm there. He couldn't help but be impressed at how dedicated they were to doing business. Even in such a situation, they could find a way to do some business.

He wondered if the rainbow mask was already prepared to do business in such a manner of if the heavenly source qi had been prepared for something else when the rainbow mask saw an opportunity to do some business with it instead.

Su Yu also noticed someone running in the direction of the mayor's residence. He was unsure if it was because there were fewer death spirits there. Suddenly, someone appeared beside Su Yu.

With great discomfort, Su Yu said, "Sect Master Lan, it's very dangerous for you to approach me randomly like this. The lord guardians are all keeping an eye on me. As a precaution, I told them to kill anyone approaching me without a good reason."

This time, Lan Tian was not coming with the appearance of a woman. Rather, he came as a sagely old man. As he stroked his long beard, he lamented, "You're all grown up now. You have even learned to use your wisdom. Well done. Tiansheng's hopes have not been misplaced."

Fuck!

Could this guy speak normally?

Su Yu didn't know what to say. This guy was a lot more normal when he was disguised as Zhao Ming. Nowadays, he was way too abnormal.

While stroking his beard, Lan Tian asked, "Are you scolding me inwardly?"

"Nope."

"Don't lie." Suddenly, Lan Tian turned solemn as he said, "Su Yu, walk the same dao as me and Tiansheng. The dao of three bodies is definitely problematic. Only the dao of the myriad races is proper."

"..."

Bullshit!

Why was this guy preaching to him? Great Zhou King and the others were there. He should preach to them instead.

Just as he was about to argue, Lan Tian switched to voice transmission, "Trust me. The three bodies dao is problematic. How are you supposed to fuse three different individuals into one? Yes, the past you are you. The future you are you. But they are also not you. Fusing all three bodies, three of them will be you and not you at the same time.

"As for the myriad races dao, I am merely a part of the whole. I am still me. The myriad daos shall serve me. Wan Tiansheng walks the path of myriad daos as one. I walk the path of myriad daos for me. My clones will forever remain clones. He has no clone. Trust me, Su Yu. The three bodies dao is wrong. You will definitely encounter a problem in the future if you walk this dao."

Su Yu's heart thumped as he finally looked at Lan Tian.

With his long, white beard and sagely eyes, he was akin to a completely different person than before. Or to be precise, this was indeed a different person. The two Lan Tians were not the same. He continued, "I believe I will complete my dao soon. You will understand how worthless the three bodies dao is. It is unimaginably worthless. If you doubt me, try asking the stone statues. Have you seen any of them using a tri-life body?"

Su Yu was stunned.

Stone statues...and tri-life bodies..

What...was the meaning of this?

He had never seen the stone statues splitting their bodies. He had assumed that splitting wasn't possible because they had petrified themselves. Was that not the case?
