Tribulation of Myriad Races-Chapter 1261: Absorb, Absorb, Absorb (3)
Chapter 1261: Absorb, Absorb, Absorb (3)
Behind Xia Longwu, Niu Baidao was dumbstruck. Of course, he did not let his stupefaction get in the way of his...dao affirmation. He was very surprised. So a day would come when luck smiled at him as well.
He was actually able to affirm his dao without interruptions. No, an Invincible tried, but that Invincible had been killed by the crazy Xia Longwu.
Looking at Xia Longwu who was throwing himself at the Invincibles like a moth throwing itself to the flame, he yelled, "Don't go! Don't go! Are you going to waste Xia Xiao'er's sacrifice like his?"
Right after saying that, he blanked out before yelling in alarm "Come back! Xia Xiao'er is not dead! There is no phenomenon!"
Xia Longwu, who was charging ahead with red eyes, looked in the distance when he heard that. The death of a Pseudo Invincible would produce a phenomenon. A bright moon would fall from the sky. Did that not happen?
After blanking out slightly, Xia Longwu's expression changed as he turned around unhesitatingly. Behind him, more than ten Invincibles had stopped in their path due to the madness he was displaying. When they saw him turning around, they realized what was happening and hurriedly resumed the pursuit.
They must kill him!
He had killed an Invincible right after his dao affirmation. If he was allowed to survive and stabilize his cultivation, it wouldn't be long before he became the next Great Xia King or even the next Great Qin King.
Niu Baidao was just about to heave a breath of relief when his expression changed.
Holy shit!
More than ten Invincibles were flying in his direction. Was his luck really that bad? He cursed and started fleeing as well. Damn it! Xia Longwu better be flying in a different direction! Fortunately, Xia Longwu noticed Niu Baidao's dao affirmation and changed his direction. The Invincibles behind him followed, but one split from the group to go after Niu Baodao.
Noticing that, Niu Baidao cursed endlessly. He knew it! He knew luck would never favor him!
Fortunately, he had been nearby when during Xia Longwu's dao affirmation. The numerous heavenly rewards dropping from the sky had flooded the area with energy. He had been able to absorb quite a lot of the energy while Xia Longwu was busy killing the Invincible after his dao affirmation. Most of the energy had been absorbed by Niu Baidao instead of Xia Longwu.
Today, his hard work of over four hundred years and the tempering he had received from the intense battle in the Human Realm earlier were finally going to pay off.
Multicolored rays of light started coming out of Niu Baidao's body, indicating the start of his dao affirmation. Even as he affirmed his dao, he was feeling quite curious. Was Xia Xiao'er not dead? Did he end up captured as a hostage by the myriad races?
The distance was too far. Not even an Invincible could see what was happening there clearly. In any case, everyone was too busy to look.
***
While Niu Baidao and Xia Longwu were fleeing in two different directions.
Everyone in the ancient city and nearby saw the multicolored lights and crimson clouds in the sky. They understood that a new Invincible had been created while an Invincible had died.
Xia Longwu had killed an Invincible.
That Invincible had been unlucky enough to be nearby just as Xia Longwu was losing his mind.
Su Yu saw the same thing, but he was too busy to spare much thought to it. He continued absorbing death qi as best as he could, driving Xing Yue mad in the process.
No!
This was unacceptable! As a mighty death sovereign, how could she be restricted against mere crippled opponents? Just how much of her death qi was that crazy Su Yu going to absorb?
"Damn it!"
Xing Yue cursed in frustration. She sent another palm attack only to have it smashed by a casual punch of Wan Tiansheng. At this point, a bizarre expression was starting to cover Wan Tiansheng's face. He hadn't even used much force in that punch. Why was it that easy? Did Su Yu suck so much out of the death sovereign that the death sovereign was going limp?
Outside the city, the Invincibles were starting to grow anxious.
Holy shit!
That must be a fake death sovereign!
In fact, this death sovereign was probably no stronger than a Pseudo Invincible or even weaker than that. How was the death sovereign so helpless against the crippled Wan Tiansheng? What the hell was this?
The Invincible converged and started a discussion. One of them asked through voice transmission, "Do we attack the city? Xia Longwu has succeeded in his dao affirmation. Are we going to let these people survive as well?"
They were unwilling to accept this result. They had been so confident that Su Yu would die.
As for Su Yu, it had been his intention since the beginning to lure Xing Yue out and deter the Invincibles from entering the city. If he had killed a regular Sunmoon and spawned a Sunmoon death spirit instead, those Invincibles might have entered the city before it was sealed.
They had only halted their advance after seeing Xing Yue, confident that Xing Yue would finish the job for them. If they wanted to enter now, they would have to break in instead of simply walking through the gate.
"Do we attack?"
The Invincibles hesitated. They still remembered what happened the last time Grandstar left the city. If Lade and Nether River King hadn't lost their tri-life bodies to Grandstar, they wouldn't have died so easily during their trip to the Human Realm. Nobody would enjoy losing a tri-life body.
But what were they supposed to do now? Their targets were right in front of them. Were they supposed to spare those humans? They were furious. There were still roughly twenty of them. Were they supposed to watch as humans toyed with that fake death sovereign?
One of them lost his temper and scolded, "Trash! Are all death sovereigns so useless?"
This was infuriating.
Why were the palm attacks of the death sovereign as weak as water balloons? It almost felt like those palm attacks would pop apart with the slightest of force.
Hearing those words, Xing Yue's eyes burned with fury.
Trash?
Even when a bastard was constantly absorbing her death qi, she was still able to keep these people pressured. How was she trash? She was very angry!
Her fury surpassed that of the Invincibles outside. She was furious at Su Yu. She was also furious at the trash Invincibles. There were so many of them. How did they allow these humans to escape into the city? They dared to call her trash after failing to stop their targets from escaping.
She was a death sovereign! She could totally give up on this attempt to kill Su Yu if she wanted to. Damn those Invincibles! Did they think that she wouldn't dare to spare Su Yu?
Xing Yue seethed.
The Invincibles were seething as well. They still couldn't decide if they wanted to attack the city.
Someone suggested through voice transmission, "Let's attack. We'll stay outside the city. There are so many of them. Each of us can throw one attack and leave immediately. It will be fine if we stay on guard against the stone statue. Previously, they only suffered because they did not expect the stone statue to act..."
With this plan, they could spawn more death sovereigns in the city before leaving. Let's see if Su Yu could survive so many death sovereigns. They refused to believe that all death sovereigns would be so weak.
But some of them still hesitated. If the stone statue decided to come out and target only one of them, how was the unlucky soul supposed to survive with everyone else fleeing? Nobody knew who that unlucky soul would be.
They did not even entertain the thought of ganging up on the stone statue. After all, there were thirty-five more stone statues out there. In fact, sixteen of the stone statues were already in the area.
The Invincibles were going crazy. Were they supposed to watch and do nothing? Since when did crippled non-Invincibles become so annoying to deal with?
One of them bellowed, "Emperors, we beseech you to show your might and kill these humans!"
Where were the Pseudo Emperors?
Why were they not doing anything?
They were very scared of the stone statues.
The Pseudo Emperors shouldn't be so fearful of the stone statues, right?
***
Meanwhile, Grandstar was in the middle of a chat.
"Grandstar, will you act if they attack your city?"
"Yeah. Grandstar, if you act, we won't be able to act even if we're here. We can't leave since our mayors won't be able to handle the burden. Speaking of, your little mayor is very capable. Not even the death sovereign can do anything to him. Why don't you lend him to us for a bit?"
"From what I can see, he's capable of taking the burden of three or even five cities without any issue."
"Yeah. Just lend him to us. We'll make sure to return him when we're done."
"..."
"Shut up!" Heavendoom spoke, "Su Yu has agreed to serve a term as my mayor. He is half a disciple of mine. I taught him some cultivation methods..."
Heavendoom couldn't hide his envy.
Damn it! He finally understood why Grandstar could freely travel around. Su Yu was crazy. Crazily useful.
Just look at how he was absorbing death qi. He was absorbing more than a hundred times a ninth-stage Sunmoon could absorb.

Tian He was a piece of trash!
After fighting so hard, he couldn't even achieve anything. Meanwhile, Su Yu was able to easily drive a death sovereign crazy. It almost felt like the death sovereign would die a second time for a moment there.
Su Yu was naturally unaware of the conversation between the stone statues. He was still busy absorbing death qi. He was determined to suck Xing Yue dry.
After attacking Wan Tiansheng several times to no avail, Xing Yue glared at Su Yu, snorted with frustration, and vanished into thin air. She had decided that she was tired of this. She had been reduced to a clown. A great death sovereign like her was being toyed with by a living dead she had converted herself. This would destroy her reputation in the Death Realm.
An awkward silence descended.
Su Yu was still working hard at absorbing her death qi. He wasn't even aware that Xing Yue had left. He had his attention fully occupied.
Wan Tiansheng and Liu Wenyan looked at each other speechlessly before looking at Su Yu and the Invincibles outside, wondering if those Invincibles would attack.
Their trip to the afterlife had been ruined by Su Yu.
And he didn't even need to solicit the stone statue's help to do it. He only needed to spawn a death sovereign and absorb enough death qi to send the death sovereign away. They even started wondering if ancient cities were really so dangerous.
Where was the promised fatal danger?
Where was the promised fearsome death sovereign?
