Chapter 1567: Suppressing Myriad Races (1)

Chaos was unfolding in the Immortal Realm.

A ninth-degree Eternal was intricately linked to the fortune of his home realm. With Wisdom King's death, natural disasters started erupting all over the Immortal Realm. This wasn't even the first time this had happened today.

The death of each immortal king represented the exhaustion of the accumulation of the immortals. Each exhaustion would weaken the power of the realm. When enough died, the realm barrier might weaken, allowing their enemies to invade through the barrier instead of the entrance.

The three experts facing Heavendoom were distracted momentarily, allowing Heavendoom to land a hit on the Wind King. Blood splashed everywhere as the Wind King transformed into wind to flee.

Immediately after, the Fire and Lightning Kings blocked Heavendoom's pursuit as a storm of lightning and fire raged around them.

Right at that moment, another mournful wail rang out.

Far away, Empyrean Cloud pulled her city from the ground before turning it into a sword and stabbing it through Han Xiang's eye. With a snort, she said, "This is your punishment for seducing my mayor, slut!"

"..."

The faces of the nearby guardians twitched. So she was still keeping a grudge about that? They had been wondering about her anger, but they finally realized why. Three mayors ago, a mayor of Empyrean Cloud colluded with Han Xiang. And she had been keeping the grudge until now.

Han Xiang hurriedly retreated as her stabbed eye regrew. When she was done regrowing her eye, she glared at Empyrean Cloud murderously.

Empyrean Cloud raised her head haughtily, "What are you looking at? Do you think you can do anything to me? Don't push me. If you push me, I'll remove my seal and teach you a lesson you can never forget!"

At that, Han Xiang's expression changed slightly. Some other Invincibles were alarmed to hear that as well.

Empyrean Cloud sneered and said, "You are nothing but bugs. Who do you think you are? Would you even dare to face me without my petrification seal?"

Far away, Heavendoom blanked out slightly as he muttered, "Right...the seal...I can unseal myself...How could I forget that?"

"..."

Immediately after, he transformed back into a stone statue. The surface of the statue started cracking as an incomparably powerful aura started leaking from the cracks. Even further away, the old turtle's face twitched with annoyance.

"Stop!" He roared, "Heavendoom! Stop! Right this moment!"

Damn it!

He knew nothing good would come out of granting Heavendoom freedom. Empyrean Cloud was only saying that as a threat, but Heavendoom was actually planning on doing that. The old turtle had thought that Heavendoom had been smart enough to not do that, but Heavendoom had merely forgotten about that option.

After all, it had been too long.

Heavendoom had probably forgotten that all of them had sealed themselves for this role. The petrification could both strengthen their defenses against death qi and lengthen their lifespan.

Removing the seal would allow him to enjoy himself well during this fight, but he would suffer after returning to his post. No matter how strong an Invincible was, a hundred thousand years of exposure to death qi would be enough to turn that Invincible into a death spirit. These guardians had only survived for so long due to the seal.

Heavendoom appeared unworried as he said, "It's fine. Isn't Su Yu still around?"

"And if he were to die?" The old turtle roared furiously, "We would still need to rely on ourselves after his death!"

"..."

True.

Heavendoom thought about it and decided to not unseal himself. But this did remind him of something else. He snorted and said, "I have almost forgotten that I was sealed a hundred thousand years ago. No wonder fighting Bountiful Treasure felt challenging."

That wasn't supposed to happen. He had assumed that Bountiful Treasure had grown stronger, but it was the other way around. Heavendoom himself had grown weaker instead. The seal had restricted his strength.

These guardians would only be at their strongest after they ceased being stone statues. But the moment they ceased being stone statues would probably be a moment of calamity for the Myriad Realms as that would be the moment they ceased watching the death tunnels.

Everyone was relieved to see Heavendoom abandoning the idea of unsealing himself. Even those who were unaware of the seal were relieved to see Heavendoom stopping.

Earlier, their instincts were violently shouting at them that something truly disastrous would happen if Heavendoom was allowed to finish what he was doing. Countless Invincibles might perish. Some unspeakable existences might even emerge.

Just then, Su Yu emerged from the tunnel of Grandstar City. His arrival caused the death qi in the city to thicken considerably. There was no helping it as he was taking on a large amount of death qi alone. With so much death qi, he had more than enough to support his combat. He no longer needed to absorb Xing Yue's death qi when opening his Heaven Gate.

His appearance attracted numerous gazes. Numerous Invincibles focused on Grandstar City. Grandstar had not bothered to remove the city while fighting. Thus, the city still stood.

With the large amount of death qi Su Yu was carrying in his body, his presence was simply too conspicuous. He did not greet Wan Tiansheng and Liu Hong. It was not the time for that. Instead, he flew straight out of the city. Wan Tiansheng hurriedly followed behind him.

They completely ignored the death tunnel as all the living Invincibles were dead. The tunnel no longer required their attention.

After leaving the city, he sneered and said, "Wisdom King? Those pieces of trash are all dead. Why do people call him Wisdom King? Stupid King is more suited for him. But I'm more and more impressed with the immortals. They even have a trump card in the Death Realm. Even someone called Marquis Qishan appeared earlier. Alas, that dumb marquis has been blasted apart. Were you planning to kill me with a dead marquis? Was that a joke?"

Those words shocked numerous people. The ancient existences, in particular, were greatly taken aback.

"Marquis Qishan?"

The sky split apart as the projection of an old fossil appeared. "Su Yu, what was that again? Marquis Qishan?"

Su Yu looked at the projection and asked, "Who are you? Are you a friend or an enemy? If you're an enemy, who the fuck are you to demand an answer from me? But if you're a friend, I'll be happy to have a chat."

He was acting very arrogantly. But so what? He had showcased more than enough ability to act so arrogantly. He had caused the deaths of eighteen Invincibles. Even prior to this, he had killed some in cooperation with Wan Tiansheng. Even earlier than that, he had also killed some alongside the stone statues.

One could say that Su Yu alone had caused more Invincible deaths than any other Invincible today.

He had also caused some Invincible deaths in the mansion. If one were to go back further, he had also caused some Invincible deaths during Xia Longwu's dao affirmation.

Su Yu was not an Invincible, but the number of Invincibles who had died because of him had nearly reached the total number of human Invincibles. Thus, when Su Yu returned this time, a certain realization hit everyone, including Tiangu. Their instincts were telling them that Su Yu...could no longer be killed so easily.

He had grown enough that killing him was no longer a casual feat. He was blessed by luck. He was willing to keep fighting in spite of all setbacks. He was capable of growing stronger the more he fought. He was also capable of growing more ruthless the more he fought.

At this point, the only way to kill him was to use an overwhelming amount of strength that could finish him before his absurd luck or tenacity could take effect. Otherwise, an existence like that would be extremely hard to kill. After all, he was not the sole super freak to have ever existed. Such was the case for every single super freak in history. Each super freak was capable of growing rapidly after each danger.

Eventually, the super freak would grow strong enough to kill all his enemies. Such a trend would only end upon encountering someone even more blessed by luck.

The projection answered, "I am the leader of the fate race."

"Oh."

Fate Pseudo Emperor? Was this a friend or an enemy? It was hard to say. But there were rumors that the fate race was somewhat related to the celestial chasm race. In that case, this was probably an enemy, right? Sure, he had cooperated with Null Seer previously, but that was a cooperation between individuals. It did not affect the race as a whole.

𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

"Su Yu, the fate race has always been neutral."

Su Yu nodded, "The neutral races are either the ones to die first or the ones too strong to die. Such a race might even have three or five Daofuses and a hundred Invincibles hidden away, securing their neutrality. Since you're claiming to be neutral, so be it. It's not like I would have the courage to argue against you."

Everyone knew he was talking nonsense, but for some reason, his nonsensical words were very persuasive. A neutral race that had survived from the ancient past was not to be underestimated. A weak race would have faced extinction long ago playing the game of neutrality.

The Fate Pseudo Emperor was rendered speechless. After a short pause, he asked again, "Did you meet Marquis Qishan?"

"Of course." Su Yu laughed and said, "The immortals produced a summoning token to summon that marquis. Wisdom King thought that the token would be enough to handle me, but unfortunately for him, a human marquis also appeared in the Death Realm. It was truly impressive. The human marquis blasted that immortal marquis apart without even breaking a sweat. I don't even know if the so-called Marquis Qishan survived that."

"A human marquis...are you talking about Marquis Lanshan?"

The Fate Pseudo Emperor asked in astonishment, "It's Marquis Lanshan, right?"

Su Yu rolled his eyes inwardly. The fuck was he supposed to know that? He was simply talking nonsense. How was he supposed to answer that? Was he supposed to tell them it was Dummy?

However, Su Yu still didn't want to thoroughly offend the so-called neutral Fate Pseudo Emperor. He reasoned that he should keep a low profile when he was weak. When he grew strong enough, he would give anyone daring to play this game of neutrality in front of him a good punch.

He smiled and said, "I don't know. I've never met that marquis before. I only know that the so-called Marquis Qishan appeared on the Celestial River of Death. As a result...hehehe. He was blasted apart. As for who did it, I can't say for sure."

"Since it happened in the east, it must have been Marquis Lanshan."

The Fate Pseudo Emperor started muttering to himself. Su Yu did not know how this person knew so much about the Death Realm, but he did not feel like continuing the topic. But before he could move on, he received a voice transmission from the Fate Pseudo Emperor, "The humans do not hold any advantage in the east. Be careful since you have dragged Marquis Lanshan into this. Marquis Qishan might be slightly weaker than Marquis Lanshan, but there are probably more than one immortal marquis in the east. Sigh. The battle up here has somehow spread to the Death Realm as well. Massive changes are indeed...coming."

Then, the projection faded away.

Meanwhile, the numerous Daofuses and ancient existences started digesting what they had just heard.

A battle in the Death Realm.

Even the ancient marquises were dragged into the battle. Despite being dead, they were still taking part in the war between races. The immortals had summoned an ancient immortal marquis, but they had still lost. They even lost Wisdom King.
