Tribulation of Myriad Races-Chapter 1214: Eruption Of War (1)
Chapter 1214: Eruption Of War (1)
Nanyuan.
As Su Yu waited, one genius after another arrived. Some were occupied by their Sunmoon dao protectors, but only the geniuses would enter and sit down. The Sunmoons remained outside the room.
There weren't that many of them. Including Su Yu, there were only thirteen people in the room. The representatives from the immortal, devil, divine, dragon, nether, five elemental, primordial giant, heavenly spirit ape, celestial chasm, and some other races were here.
Each of them had only deployed one Pseudo Invincible into the Human Realm. The Heavenly Hunt Pavilion, on the other hand, had deployed two Pseudo Invincibles. Each representative was the cream of the crop from their respective race. Mo Duona was the undisputed representative of the devils. As for the immortals, Dao Cheng was sent instead of Xuan Wuji.
As for the five elementals, Topsoil Spirit was naturally the representative. Soulcurse of the celestial chasm race, Long Yingyue of the dragon race, Ming Yue of the nether race, Ancient Forge of the primordial giant race...
All of them were geniuses on the Heaven Index. Of the eighteen Heaven Index geniuses, more than half of them had arrived. Someone capable of entering the Heaven Index would have a considerable status in their race as well.
A majority of these people were Mountainseas, and some were Cloudbreaches. But every single one of them felt very powerful to Su Yu. In fact, none of them felt weaker than regular Sunmoons to him.
The moment everyone was there, the black-robed Soulcurse laughed and said, "So it's Brother Profound Nine. Your name has been known to me for a long time. Finally, we get the chance to meet."
As Soulcurse spoke, Su Yu's sea of willpower shook slightly while the tribulation character pulsed. A clump of indistinct dark qi had appeared inside his sea of willpower.
But it was only there for a split second. It had been completely eaten by the yawning little furball with a single bite. After eating, the little furball even retched slightly, as though he had just eaten something disgusting.
At the same time, Soulcurse shook slightly. Right at that moment, a fist was thrown his way. Soulcurse was only pushed back a few dozen steps, which was surprising to Su Yu as he had expected to send Soulcurse flying with that punch.
The source of this c𝐨ntent is freёnovelkiss.com.
Sure, he hadn't punched with all his strength. But Soulcurse was only a third-stage Mountainsea. How had he failed to send a Mountainsea flying? He had put the strength of a hundred thousand acupoints behind that punch.
"Enough."
Mo Duona said, "Soulcurse, quit throwing your useless curses around."
Soulcurse did not appear offended. Unhurt, he smiled and said, "I was just joking around. Don't be angry. Everyone has been saying that Profound Nine is a young genius as well. If it wasn't for the death qi, he would have entered the Heaven Index long ago. I was merely having some fun"
Su Yu said, "If you want to have some fun, sure. But you better reach the ninth-stage Mountainsea Realm first. Currently...you're not good enough."
"I'll keep that in mind." Soulcurse laughed, "But yeah, this is not the time for it. We're here for proper business. What is there to discuss? Most races will be fine with this. What about the immortals, primordial giants, five elementals, and apes? If you're uninterested in joining the operation, you may withdraw. It's really not that complicated."
Topsoil Spirit laughed and said, "I'll stay and listen. If the plan is feasible, I won't rule out the possibility of joining."
He looked at Su Yu and asked, "What do you think, Senior Profound Nine?"
Su Yu replied, "Out of the fourteen Pseudo Invincibles we have, the immortals should leave if they think it's inappropriate for them to join. After all, they're the allies of the humans and might be called to help. That will be annoying. With the remaining thirteen Pseudo Invincibles, we have more than enough people to flatten Nanyuan. The strongest expert they have is Xia Xiao'er, an eighth-stage Sunmoon. Even if he's a Xia, even if the Sky Sundering Saber is sharp, one Pseudo Invincible is enough to keep him occupied."
That was the only name he could think of among those from Great Xia.
"As for the Zhu and Qin Families, Zhu Tiandao is the first son of an Invincible. He is also a ninth-stage Sunmoon. I suggest we send a Pseudo Invincible his way as well. The same goes for Qin Hao, the second son of Great Qin King."
Su Yu concluded, "Three Pseudo Invincibles are enough to keep all of their strongest experts occupied. The rest can be on standby to deal with Xia Family's trump card. Perhaps Nan Wujiang is the trump card. With ten Pseudo Invincibles, I doubt we will have trouble handling him. With Nan Wujiang occupied, the traitor of the humans might appear himself to finish Nan Wujiang off..."
Everything sounded so simple. Zhan Wushuang frowned, "Things won't be so simple. Nan Wujiang...everyone is saying that the First Divine Sect master is Nan Wujiang. But...don't you feel that this trump card has been exposed way too early? Also, this rumor originated from Lan Tian. Can his words even be taken seriously?"
He looked at Mo Duona and said, "Lan Tian is one of yours. And First Divine has worked with us for many years. I am very doubtful of the rumor that First Divine is Nan Wujiang. He has appeared not long before Nan Wujiang's death. If he's really Nan Wujiang, it can only mean that he had been scheming about this long before that."
Mo Duona asked, "Did the divines start working with First Divine without knowing his actual identity?"
"We thought we knew his identity." Zhan Wushuang said, "But this is still the Human Realm. We had Sunmoons keeping in contact with him before meeting him in person. But that does not guarantee anything. When he started working with us, he was only a first-stage Sunmoon. It has been over a hundred years since then. He is now a Pseudo Invincible, displaying an incredibly impressive level of talent for advancing so far in only a hundred years. But if he's really Nan Wujiang, then he must have fooled us since the beginning."
Zhan Wushuang proceeded to ask, "How about Lan Tian? Is he suspicious?"
"Him?" Mo Duona said, "It's hard to say. We only have a cooperative relationship. Back then, we captured him in the Allheaven Battlefield. But we did not kill him. He claimed that he wanted to forge a human race that could coexist peacefully with the myriad races. At the time, Wisdom Devil King was in charge of him. Wisdom Devil King has his own plans as well and I'm not aware of his plans. Thus, it's very hard for us to accurately judge Lan Tian."
Su Yu joined in, "It doesn't matter. We only need to be wary of any possibility. In any case, the Xia Family won't be that much of an issue if we work together. Everyone is only worried about the trump card they are saving for Invincibles. If their trump card is too strong to handle, we can always retreat. With so many Pseudo Invincibles, withdrawing is the least they can do, right?"
He asked, "Is anyone here aware of who that traitor is? At worst, we can get the traitor to make a move."
Soulcurse grinned, "No idea. Back then, he worked with an Invincible from my race. But that does not mean that we know his identity. Why bother asking in such a roundabout manner? If we really knew his identity, we would have released the information long ago."
Su Yu did not deign to say anything about that. That was absolute nonsense. Even if these people knew who the traitor was, they definitely wouldn't release the information.
Su Yu said, "If there are no objections, we shall settle with this arrangement. The eighth elder of the pavilion will handle Xia Xiao'er. The third elder will wait for Xia Family's trump card alongside the other Pseudo Invincibles. The divine Pseudo Invincible will deal with the Zhu Family. The devil Pseudo Invincible will deal with the Qin Family. Just remember to keep an eye out for the War Shrine and Knowledge Seeking Realm as well."
This wasn't an intricate plan. They would simply overwhelm their opponents with their numerical advantage. A more sophisticated plan was not required. They only needed to watch out for Xia Family's trump card.
Long Yingyue of the dragon race said, "What do we do about the ruin after we defeat the Xia Family?"
Su Yu answered nonchalantly, "We'll compete over it with what we have. The best shall prevail. Isn't that obvious? Naturally, the pavilion is willing to purchase the Culture Tomb if any of you manage to get it. We can talk about the price."
The young geniuses nodded. Mo Duona asked, "Dao Cheng, will the immortals be taking part?"
After a short silence, Dao Cheng said, "We'll observe for now."
Zhan Wushuang coldly said, "I propose we join hands against those not participating if they try to fight for the ruin after the Xia Family is dealt with."
"Agreed."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
"Get those minor race Sunmoons to kill the other humans."
"Agreed."
"When will we take action?"
"The Pseudo Invincibles can decide that."
"Sure."
"..."
Before long, an agreement was reached.
Su Yu was only here to kickstart the cooperation. The young geniuses weren't required to follow his lead. Nor would they agree to follow his lead. This was merely a farce to get everyone moving. The various Pseudo Invincibles had their own agendas to pursue.
After the discussion, Su Yu prepared to leave.
Dao Cheng, who had remained mostly silent during the meeting, suddenly said, "Brother Profound Nine, let's leave together."
"Hmm?"
Su Yu narrowed his eyes. What was this? Did Dao Cheng see through his disguise? Unlikely.
Without a change in expression, Su Yu agreed, "Sure."
After the two were gone, Zhan Wushuang said, "Did Dao Cheng discover something? It is rumored that Profound Nine is related to Su Yu. Some are even saying that the two are the same person. Is it possible that..."
He looked at the others and asked, "Did any of you sense anything?"
A genius was the most sensitive to the presence of another genius.
Mo Duona nonchalantly answered, "Yes, but my insincts did not react too intensely. Profound Nine is definitely a genius. As for whether he's Su Yu...you are welcomed to visit Grandstar City if you're curious."
What nonsense.
Everyone ignored that suggestion. Wasn't that the same as throwing their lives away?
Things might have calmed down in Grandstar City as of late, but further provocation might truly anger Su Yu. If they ended up dying because of that, it would be the most worthless way they could have died.
"Topsoil Spirit, you're quite familiar with Su Yu. Do you think Profound Nine resembles Su Yu?"
Topsoil Spirit, who was just about to phase into the ground and leave, laughed and replied, "That...is too hard to say. It's true that Su Yu is very good at disguise. Back when he ran around as Tianduo, I nearly failed to see through him. But Profound Nine is very strong. He has the combat strength of a third-stage Sunmoon. Can Su Yu really grow that fast?"
He was quite doubtful, but he couldn't be sure either. He wouldn't be surprised by whatever Su Yu decided to do in the ancient city. Even if Su Yu was indeed Profound Nine, he wouldn't be surprised either. He was only surprised at how helpful the stone statue seemed toward Su Yu.
"Su Yu or Profound Nine, it honestly doesn't matter anymore, isn't that so?" Soulcurse said, "If he isn't, there is nothing for us to worry about. If he is, this isn't the ancient city. Even if he has the strength of a third-stage Sunmoon, what can he do? There are a lot of Pseudo Invincibles around."
That was true. At this point, that no longer mattered.
Everyone laughed and started leaving.
