Chapter 1239: The Reliable Little Brother (2)

In the sky.

Grandstar was left quite speechless by what he saw.

The others might have missed it, but he saw everything. The immortal king had lost two tri-life bodies out of nowhere. The stone statue had a rough guess at what had happened. It was probably the handiwork of either that soul devourer Pseudo Emperor or his wife.

Speaking of, that female furball had left home for over three hundred years. But that little furball with Su Yu did not seem that old...

The stone statue sank into contemplation.

After a while, he tossed the matter out of his head. He had a small guess, but he didn't want to think too much about it. That race was too terrifying.

Once again, his gaze settled on Su Yu. He could see that Su Yu was using these young geniuses to temper himself as his body was still growing even in the midst of battle.

The strength of eighth-stage Sunmoon...After a while, Grandstar was able to guess something. When he looked at the Culture Tomb, he recognized something.

Suddenly, his eyes flickered as he noticed that the Culture Tomb had vanished from his vision for a split second before reappearing. Nobody else had noticed it.

Suns and moons spun in Grandstar's eyes as he rewinded the previous scene and replayed it in slow motion. After slowing down the replay countless times, he finally noticed something.

Ancient spatial beast.

Even this race was here.

And the one here was definitely no weaker than that Nan Wujiang guy. In fact, this ancient spatial beast was probably among the strongest Pseudo Invincibles in existence. Was this Hollow, third on the Dao Affirmation Ranking?

Grandstar did not take any action. He knew that the tomb belonged to Su Yu. Thus, it would be up to Su Yu to retrieve the tomb, not him.

After a while, he recalled that he wasn't here for the scenery. Neither was he here for the show. Su Yu had absorbed too much death qi. Ignoring Xing Yue's endurance, it wasn't a good idea to have too much death qi.

If a death tunnel was opened in the Human Realm, it would be a disaster of immense proportions.

"Su Yu, time for you to leave the Human Realm."

He was here to take Su Yu away. He could watch a good show some other time. There was no pressing need for him to remain. A bunch of Invincibles would probably arrive soon. He would much rather not be around for that lest he was dragged into the mess as well.

He might be strong, but if multiple determined Invincibles decided to fight him to the death, he would have a hard time as well. The Invincibles who had fallen victim to him previously were simply too weak. They had also been taken by surprise. That was why it had looked so easy.

At the thought of that, Grandstar blanked out slightly. He seemed to have...killed a tad too many tri-life bodies as of late.

Look, one of them was here. That Lade guy down below.

Yes, yes, he should leave as soon as possible. It would be annoying if his victims decided to take revenge against him.

***

Boundless void.

River of Time.

Great Han King roared furiously, "Zhou Tianyuan! Don't you understand? As long as the multiple character faction remains, humanity will never see peace. They are the source of chaos. Why are you stopping me? Are you trying to destroy humanity?"

"Back in Time."

After using the same move yet again, Junior Zhou King coughed a mouthful of blood as his aura dropped further. He coldly said, "Even if I have to die, I won't allow this, Murderous Liu Jin!"

"Bastard!"

Furious, Great Han King attacked again.

Rumbling sounds rang out unceasingly.

The chaotic battle resumed.

At the same time, numerous Pseudo Invincibles attempted their dao affirmations. Some succeeded, some died.

Nobody could deny that luck played a considerable role in dao affirmation as well.

The human Pseudo Invincibles were not the only ones being targeted. Some random Invincibles were also targeting those from the minor races. Not every Pseudo Invincible was capable of contending against Invincibles. Some had even started the attempt before getting the second carrier treasure, hoping to loot one from a dead Invincible during the attempt.

At the same time, Great Qin King and Great Xia King were joining hands to force multiple Invincibles to retreat repeatedly. It wasn't that these Invincibles were really so weak. Rather, they did not want to risk their lives in this fight.

To kill Great Xia King and Great Qin King, they had to pay the price of multiple Invincibles. And none of them wanted to be that price. Thus, they were only doing enough to keep the two human Invincibles busy.

Suddenly, an illusory figure appeared at the entrance of the Devil Realm. The figure gazed at the Allheaven Battlefield and the boundless void. When one looked at the figure, one would have a sensation that this figure had existed since time immemorial.

Finally, the illusory figure focused on Great Han King.

After some time, understanding slowly dawned on that figure. Suddenly, the sky above the Allheaven Battlefield was covered by yet another curtain of multicolored light.

This was the third time it had happened today.

The first time it happened, it was due to Liu Wushen.

The second time it happened, it was due to Zhou Polong.

And the third time it happened, it was due to Zhou Potian.

The myriad races were shocked. A single family had produced four Invincibles.

It was already shocking enough for Great Ming King to have two Invincibles in his family.

There were also two Invincibles in Great Han King's family. Unfortunately, Great Han King was making things complicated for his family.

As for Great Xia, Great Xia King was still the sole Invincible. Yes, they had people like Wan Tiansheng who were capable of fighting Invincibles without being an Invincible, but these people were ultimately not Invincibles.

And now, Great Zhou had produced two new Invincibles.

Including Junior Zhou King who had faked his death for so many years, they had four Invincibles in the family.

***

At the same time.

Qin Zhen was stunned as well.

Holy shit!

That was quick!

As he had been fleeing alongside the Zhou brothers, the two Invincibles pursuing them were now stopped by the brothers. Even as they fought, more myriad race Invincibles were approaching.

𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

Zhou Polong shouted, "Affirm your dao!"

Why the fuck was Qin Zhen staring blankly? What a fool. He was too slow! Just look at how fast the two of them were!

Meanwhile, Qin Zhen looked at the brothers doubtfully. Something was off here. Something was very off. These two...had captured their third body long ago. They had even started fusing the three bodies prior to this without completing the process. That was how they had been able to complete their breakthroughs in such a short time.

The Zhou Family...had a lot of carrier treasures. How rich.

More importantly, even if they had started the process prior to this, their breakthroughs were still abnormally fast.

"Back in Time."

Once again, the same roar resounded throughout the Allheaven Battlefield.

And once again, Qin Zhen was stunned. Why was his advancement growing in speed out of nowhere? It almost felt like time was speeding up.

Wait. Speeding up.

Something seemed to be speeding up his flow of time, accelerating the speed of his advancement.

***

The Devil Pseudo Emperor finally realized what was happening.

He exclaimed in admiration.

He had mixed feelings about what he understood.

What a massive scheme.

And how capable of them.

Back in Time? No, that wasn't what that human was doing at all. He was accelerating time forward. He was using that ability on certain select individuals. Or to be precise, those attempting their dao affirmations. Everyone had been misled.

They all believed that time was flowing backward. But in truth, all these Invincibles were located in a small pocket where time was flowing normally. All around them, time was speeding up, giving them the illusion that time was slowing down.

People like Liu Wushen were the ones enjoying an accelerated flow of time. Junior Zhou King alone was unlikely to be capable of doing this on such a scale. He must be receiving some help.

At that thought, the Devil Pseudo Emperor's gaze settled on a certain someone.

A certain someone who wasn't really fighting that hard.

Great Zhou King.

At that exact moment, Great Zhou King turned his head and met the Devil Pseudo Emperor's gaze, as though the massive distance between them did not exist.

The Devil Pseudo Emperor sighed.

"Number one cultural researcher of humanity..."

This was the true form of the number one cultural researcher of humanity.

All those Invincibles had been covered in a unique domain by Great Zhou King. The domain did not pose them any threat. The domain wasn't even offensive in nature. It merely utilized Great Zhou King's unique characters to alter their judgment of reality.

Among those characters were most certainly one capable of dulling one's sense of crisis.

He alone had tricked so many Invincibles.

Not one of them had suspected anything when Junior Zhou King had seemingly reversed time so many times. How could time be reversed so easily?

"Withdraw."

The Devil Pseudo Emperor's voice spread throughout the Allheaven Battlefield.

Great Zhou King's eyes flickered as he sent a voice transmission at the exact same moment, "Start."

Their ruse had been seen through, but this wasn’t surprising. It was simply impossible for so many experts to remain fooled forever. It would be foolish to underestimate the myriad races so much.

The myriad race Invincibles heard the Pseudo Emperor's voice. They blanked out for a split second before withdrawing en masse.

The Pseudo Emperor did not provide any explanation, but they weren't fools. Such an order would not be given without reason. The wisest choice of action was to first pull back.

At almost the same moment, a sigh rang out, followed by a deafening rumble.

The River of Time snapped and exploded.

At the same time, a large hole appeared on the realm barrier of the Human Realm.

Great Han King roared, "Follow me into the Human Realm! We shall slaughter these humans!"

With that roar, he dragged four myriad race Invincibles through that hole. The four wanted to resist, but they were too slow to move out before the realm barrier was repaired.

They were gone.

Great Han King had vanished alongside four myriad race Invincibles. The sudden explosion of the River of Time had caused a massive backlash on the myriad race Invincibles who had been trying to stabilize it, injuring them at varying degrees.

Over forty myriad race Invincibles were here. Even after losing four to Great Han King, there were still a lot of them. However, almost every single one of them had been injured as they had spared no effort in stabilizing the River of Time prior to the explosion. And it was widely known that the River of Time was extremely dangerous to meddle with.

In fact, the explosion had also dealt a considerable damage to Great Han King, to the point where his past and future bodies were starting to destabilize. Nevertheless, he had still successfully dragged four Invincibles into the Human Realm.

Great Zhou King and Junior Zhou King worked in perfect unison and attacked the same Invincible together.

The sudden attack was launched with their full strength.

Boom!

With a loud rumble, the divine Invincible they targeted lost a body. The Invincible was already injured. His sense of crisis had also been dulled. Thus, he wasn't even able to react.

His remaining bodies were just about to flee when a second body was blasted apart.

The River of Time appeared, but it snapped almost immediately and exploded alongside the final body.

Boom!

Crimson clouds unfurled across the entire Allheaven Battlefield.
