Tribulation of Myriad Races-Chapter 1415: Death Follows (1)
Chapter 1415: Death Follows (1)
Near the entrance to the second level.
The entrance was a large whirlpool. When Su Yu arrived with his companions, he frowned and looked around. This was indeed the location of the forehead acupoint.
"Are we going up now?"
Xia Huyou asked again. Were they really leaving just like that?
Su Yu ignored him and soared into the sky before scanning the surroundings. He started hesitating. Could he obtain any benefits from the forehead acupoint? How should he temper his forehead acupoint?
Or to be precise, how should he go about discovering the operation method of this acupoint? How should source qi circulate through this acupoint, and which acupoints were this acupoint linked with? This was one of the acupoints he had not been able to see before being transferred into the mansion.
If he could figure out the circulation route through these unique acupoints, it would be much easier for him to derive the rest of the route.
"Forehead acupoint...circulation..."
Suddenly, an idea came to Su Yu. He reached out and grabbed Yellow Nine and the others. Xia Huyou blanked out slightly, but he did not protest. Both Yellow Nine and Huang Teng panicked, but Su Yu did not give them the chance to resist.
Instantly, they were all trapped inside a misty space. After trapping them in the misty space, he continued observing the whirlpool. A short while later, he opened his shut acupoint.
"Tai Shan!"
With a shout, the world raged. Old Zhou seemed even more furious than before. Perhaps that was because he had been provoked multiple times in the same day.
The same voice reverbrated in Su Yu's mind.
"Tai Shan! Why did you kill me!"
"I do not accept your reason!"
"I refuse to accept this result!"
"..."
Blood started dripping out of Su Yu's mouth, but he did not seem to care. Even as the sound waves were attacking him, he continued focusing on the forehead acupoint. When Old Zhou raged, he would most certainly circulate his cultivation method. Su Yu wanted to see what the forehead acupoint would look like with the cultivation method active.
Sure enough, the forehead acupoint started spinning faster and faster. A large amount of source qi converged there as the entrance started trembling.

Far away, beyond the barrier of the first level.
He Tu saw someone.
No, he saw multiple individuals.
He had never seen Su Yu's appearance. He only knew Su Yu by voice. Thus, he wasn't too bothered by the individuals he was seeing. Rather, he was trembling from sensing the intense energy undulations.
What was this? The Luminous Domain Mansion was raging! Was that because...the mansion was forged out of a human?
He did not dare to think too deeply about it. In fact, he didn't even dare to move. Something was extremely wrong about the first level. It was extremely dangerous. It would be a bad idea for him to enter now. Thus, he decided to further delay his entry.
At the same time, his curiosity toward the Luminous Domain Mansion was growing. He had been in the mansion before. But things weren't like this before. Beside him, Dummy was staring through the barrier blankly. He seemed oddly engrossed in what he was seeing.

At the same time.
Outside.
Once again, the White Jade Gate rampaged.
This was the third time.
The first time it happened, it was intense. The second time it happened, it was milder. And the third time...seemed very long-lasting.
All the Invincibles had unsightly expressions.
Each time the gate raged, some of their people inside the mansion would die. They had lost the most during the first incident. They hadn't lost too many people during the second incident. Perhaps that was simply an unintended reaction. But now, more tunnels were collapsing, signifying that even more of their people had died.
Damn it!
This time, the people dying were no mere weaklings. Instead, they were Sunmoons. Dao King watched silently with a cold and detached expression. He had stopped raging. Of his thirteen initial slots, only eleven had been utilized by his people. Seven had died. Such was his luck. Only four remained.
He was so unlucky that he felt as though the world itself was targeting him. This was too vile.
"There are 3,080 survivors. This...isn't too bad."
Someone muttered in relief. The second day was nearly over and only about five hundred had died. This wasn't too bad. It was merely two hundred or so deaths per day. Meanwhile, the Invincibles around him were left completely speechless.
How was this not bad?
Sigh.
They had no idea why this was happening. For some reason, the Luminous Domain Mansion was raging again and again. They were starting to feel jittery. If this continued, they would lose all their people. This wasn't a price they were willing to pay.
***
Seventh level of the Luminous Domain Mansion.
An intense battle was unfolding between a large number of experts. After cutting a Sunmoon to death with his saber, Xia Longwu exhaled and fled. Fortunately, the mansion had raged all of a sudden. Otherwise, the myriad race Invincibles would have succeeded in encircling him.
While fleeing, he observed his surroundings. The seventh level was extremely dangerous. Too many experts had gathered here. In fact, over twenty Invincibles had arrived on this level.
As for the nineleaf skylotus everyone was waiting for, it was starting to emerge. Everyone could see it. Shrouded in the midst of void, it was slowly blooming. However, when one tried to approach it, one wouldn't be able to touch it.
According to what Xia Longwu knew, one had to wait for the correct moment before harvesting it. After it fully bloomed, it would turn corporeal. That would be the time to harvest it.
Thus, most of the people on the seventh level were cleaning their competition while waiting. Some had been assigned to watch the entrance, preventing more people from entering the seventh level.
Not far away, a different battle erupted. When Xia Longwu looked over, he noted that it was probably Zhu Tianfang. That was a strong fellow as well. Thus, Xia Longwu focused on fleeing and did not bother to help.
This time, four human Invincibles had arrived. Xia Longwu, Zhu Tianfang, Zhou Polong, and Qin Zhen.
The Invincibles from the other races had arrived as well. According to Xia Longwu's estimation, about twenty-two Invincibles were here. There were probably even more than that. It was also likely that some of them were still on the lower levels.
Some might have arrived with only their tri-life bodies, but Xia Longwu was sure that a lot of them had also arrived in their complete bodies. Fighting so many Invincibles with only a tri-life body was the same as losing that tri-life body for no reason. After all, a mere tri-life body of an Invincible would only be slightly stronger than a Pseudo Invincible. Such a level of strength was too weak to be of use here.
Suddenly, a massive spear shot into the sky somewhere else.
Next, Qin Zhen's furious roar rang out, "Immortals! Screw you, immortals! Eat my spear!"
A battle had broken out between Qin Zhen and an immortal Invincible. Xia Longwu merely gave Qin Zhen a glance before looking away again. Qin Zhen was strong enough to take care of himself. Unfortunately, he seemed to be quite unlucky. It had been less than two days yet Xia Longwu had sensed Qin Zhen fighting six times.
This wasn't a stage when these Invincibles should fight each other with such frequency yet. However, Qin Zhen was the exception. Out of all the battles that had broken out between Invincibles on the seventh level thus far, he alone had participated in thirty percent of them.
Eventually, Xia Longwu started frowning. This time, the disturbance seemed to be lasting much longer than before. It only stopped after a long while.
All of them were feeling doubtful. Just what was happening? Where did these disturbances come from? It had happened several times so far.

Meanwhile, Su Yu was coughing blood without stop.
But he paid it no mind.
It would be fine.
With the Culture Tomb, he might feel uncomfortable, but his sea of willpower would be fine. Old Zhou was only shouting, not attacking. Nothing would happen as long as his sea of willpower was protected.
Slowly, a clump of flame appeared on his forehead. After observing the operation of the forehead acupoint while Old Zhou raged, Su Yu finally figured something out. He continued observing while coughing blood. It would be fine.
What was the big deal about coughing some blood? He had to take this chance to fully figure out the forehead acupoint. After some time, Su Yu's forehead acupoint started spinning. Then, it linked itself with the other acupoints. Inside his body, one acupoint after another lit up.
250 acupoints. 260...270...
This was his attempt at deriving the full cultivation method for his 360 acupoints. However, he wasn't fully activating them. He was merely activating them enough to link them up. Normally, fully activating all 360 of his acupoints before completing a full circulation of source qi through them would take him an entire day.
But since he wasn't activating them fully, the process was happening at a much faster rate. Most acupoints came in pairs. Thus, knowing the circulation method and route for one acupoint would allow him to figure out the method and route for another acupoint. Before long, 320 of his acupoints lit up.
Splurt!
Suddenly, he coughed a mouthful of blood while his face turned pale.
"That's wrong."
He had activated an acupoint wrongly. That was not how it should be done.
He wasted no time and took a drop of Emperor's Saliva out. Just as he was about to consume it, he blanked out. Wait. Why should he swallow it? He could always apply it externally!
At his cultivation level, there was no longer any need for him to swallow the treasures he wanted to use. He cursed at himself for his stupidity. How could he forget this?
Thus, he spread the saliva--no, the Emperor's Saliva over his skin. Instantly, his damaged acupoint recovered completely. That was not all. A refreshing power seeped into his body and repaired his badly injured body. In the blink of an eye, most of his previous injuries were gone.
