Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 1052: I Can Still Do Something (1)

Inside the city.

White One's voice rang out again, "Su Yu, Principal Niu Baidao is right outside the city. He wishes to have a talk with you. All of us will retreat to the gates and release our auras actively. An index copy will be left behind for you. You can communicate directly with Principal Niu Baidao."

Su Yu did not say anything.

The others did not mind his silence. Before long, one expert after another started heading toward the gates. They were able to easily block off the death spirits they encountered on the way. An index copy was left in the first ring, awaiting Su Yu's collection.

Inside an ancient building.

Su Yu frowned. Was Principal Niu really here? What did Old Niu want to talk about? Su Yu guessed that Old Niu was probably going to persuade him to release those people. He knew what the principal was thinking. Killing all these people wouldn't help him in any way. He would only provoke bigger trouble for himself.

But he did not fear trouble. Of course, it would be extremely difficult to get all these people killed. The Invincibles might even reappear before he could do so. Even so, he wasn't willing to let them go without killing at least a few of them.

At this moment, he had completed his forty-seventh body forging. His physical strength was reaching 160,000 acupoints. This was a terrifying level of strength. It was already beyond the strength of a regular seventh-stage Mountainsea. At the weakest, a seventh-stage Mountainsea would have the strength of 100,000 acupoints.

But Su Yu was confident he could kill even an above average seventh-stage Mountainsea. This naturally did not include the top geniuses of the major races. It was pointless to measure the strength of geniuses through their cultivation levels.

His willpower had reached the seventh-stage Cloudbreach Realm. He did not further improve his willpower cultivation as that would require him to use the rest of the Invincible notes. He only had seven left, so he had to be thrifty with them.

"Principal Niu..."

Su Yu started thinking. Should he talk to Principal Niu? Of course, he was not about to collect the index copy himself. Just because those people were waiting near the gates did not mean that nobody else was hiding in the city.

For example, a certain injured mayor had been remaining silent. And the mayor's residence wasn't even that far away. The moment he caught the mayor's attention, there was a chance that the mayor would betray his location to the others.

At that point, they only needed a single seventh-stage Sunmoon to wait outside his building. He would not be able to do anything to stop the city from unsealing itself. All those people would be able to leave easily.

Su Yu also didn't trust the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion. They could still track him through the index copy. They had completely lost his trust after they sold his location once. But it wasn't like he had no way to deal with their tracking. He could create clones. Sure, he wasn't able to create sophisticated clones, but what he knew was sufficient for now.

The clone could even carry one of his characters. That would increase his control over the clone. As for the option of having a death spirit use the index copy on his behalf, that was not feasible. These death spirits were too dumb. Apart from blankly sending beams of death qi at others, they weren't capable of anything.

"They are probably keeping a close watch over the inner ring even now."

That was not an issue for Su Yu.

He summoned a death spirit over with his medallion. Then, he gave a drop of his blood to the death spirit. Noticing the death qi mixed amid his blood, he sighed. The death spirit left with the drop of blood.

Before long, a death spirit appeared at the center of the city.

Main city gate.

Some people were observing the inner ring with glowing eyes while some were observing with unique tools. It was impossible for them to leave the inner ring completely unsupervised. If they could discover Su Yu in advance, why bother negotiating?

They could simply keep him trapped in a building. They could even keep him trapped forever by having experts keeping watch in turns. It was natural for these experts and geniuses to bear a grudge toward him after suffering so much because of him.

When they noticed the death spirit, one of them muttered, "Is that Su Yu disguised as a death spirit? Since he has such an ability, perhaps he's really brazen enough to do this..."

Right after those words were said, the death spirit tossed a drop of blood out. The blood bloomed and transformed into a Su Yu with a blank expression. Then, a character revealed itself.

This was the process of creating a character clone. Naturally, this was a simpler version that was different than the character clones of Sunmoons and Invincibles. The character fused into the clone's body. Before long, traces of intelligence gleamed in the eyes of the clone. This clone had basically transformed into a puppet.

Near the gate, someone said, "He's using a clone. His blood and character can be found in the clone. If we manage to capture the clone..."

They might be able to track Su Yu through the clone. Should they do it? n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Seemingly knowing that he was under observation, the clone smiled and said, "Don't try anything stupid. My main body isn't here. Instead, I'm hiding somewhere with a bunch of peak Mountainsea death spirits. If you wish to die, I'll gladly oblige."

He spoke softly, but his voice could be clearly heard by those near the gates since they were all spying on him. Right after those words were said, the Sunmoons who were starting to get impatient cursed and stopped talking.

The gates were quite far from the center of the city. Even a Sunmoon would need a little bit of time to cover that distance. If Su Yu decided to really kill a bunch of peak Mountainsea death spirits, they would be in quite a lot of trouble.

The clone picked up the copy index. After thinking for a bit, he wrote on it, "If you want me to stop, sure. I only need all Sunmoons to self-detonate..."

A row of words appeared.

"That's impossible. Su Yu, stop dreaming. Su Yu, there is still hope of survival for you. There is even hope for you to reverse your fate. But if you remain stubborn, the myriad races will deploy a large number of Sunmoons in the city. It is only a matter of time before they locate you and trap you inside your building for life."

Su Yu was surprised. Who was this? Was it the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion?

A new row of words appeared, "The Heavenly Hunt Pavilion hereby offers a common communication channel for everyone. Each race may assign one individual to join this channel. The joining fee is one drop of Sunmoon blood essence per person."

"..."

Su Yu blanked out slightly before cursing madly inwardly. Then, a large empty screen appeared on the copy index. However, the number of participants was not shown. Inside the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion, the elders were all greatly excited. Once again, they had earned a massive profit. A lot of races had stealthily joined the channel.

Only one participant was allowed per race. From the backend, the elders could clearly see how over seventy races had joined instantly. They had announced that only one participant per race was allowed, but they couldn't be bothered to actually enforce it. One of the elders asked, "More people are asking to join. Do we allow them?"

"Yes. But inform them that they will need to get through the verification process before they're granted permission to write anything. We need to maintain order during the negotiation."

Before long, the number of participants surpassed three hundred. Clearly, everyone was very interested in the negotiation.

An elder said, "Put a special tag on those with the permission to participate in the negotiation. For example, the representative of the devil race can be given the devil tag, the representative of the divine race can be assigned the divine tag, and so on. As for those without permission to write anything, leave them untagged."

"Yes."

"..."

The elders were in a great mood. They were essentially offering a live broadcast of the negotiation between Su Yu and the various races. As for whether Su Yu and the negotiating races would be pleased to learn about this or not, that did not matter to the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion.

***

Meanwhile, Su Yu's expression was changing.

Fuck!

Again!

The damn Heavenly Hunt Pavilion was here to milk him again! Even with only one participant per race, there would be at least several hundred participants. So the damn Heavenly Hunt Pavilion would be the ultimate winner from all this?

Suddenly, Su Yu's clone disappeared, leaving the copy index on the ground. On the index were the following words: "The Heavenly Hunt Pavilion needs to pay me five hundred drops of Sunmoon blood essence first before I agree to proceed with the negotiation."

He was gone. Even the character had vanished into thin air at the same moment.

For a moment, the entire Myriad Realms sank into silence.

The main character had decided to not negotiate. In short, everyone had purchased the tickets for the live broadcast when the main character decided to end the broadcast.

Heavenly Hunt Pavilion.

The expressions of the elders changed drastically. Holy shit! They had completely forgotten about the nature of Su Yu. That was one petty bastard. This was definitely something he could pull off.

What were they supposed to do now? They had already received the payment of all those people. Even at that moment, numerous masked individuals were still collecting payment everywhere. New participants were still joining at every moment.

Suddenly, someone wrote furiously: "Heavenly Hunt Pavilion, are you courting death?"

"Heavenly Hunt Pavilion, if the Sunmoons and genius of my race die because of your greed, we will not spare you!"

"For every Sunmoon my race loses, we will kill ten Sunmoons of the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion!"

"..."

The ones with the permission to write started complaining furiously. The ones without the permission to write started messaging the Heavenly Hunt Pavillion for refunds. Since the broadcast was not happening, the Heavenly Hunt Pavillion better refund them or prepare for endless troubles.

The elders looked at each other in dismay. Their joy from earning a large profit had yet to fade but the trouble was already knocking?

One of them cursed, "It's not like Su Yu is losing anything. Why is he doing this?"

He wouldn't lose anything! The negotiation was going to proceed either way. Why care about all the spectators? Just pretend they weren't around!

"We made a blunder. We shouldn't have allowed the others to participate as spectators..."

"Yeah. Which idiot made it clear that every race can join? We should have let them join silently instead."

"..."

The elders were feeling quite gloomy. Which idiot decided it was a good idea to state everything clearly? Look at the trouble they were in now. The Heavenly Hunt Pavilion was powerful and mysterious. But they also had numerous branches everywhere. It would still be a considerable loss to lose all those branches.

If the first thing the myriad race experts did after seeing them in the future was attacking them, they would no longer be able to continue doing business.

"What should we do now?"

"What else can we do? Refunding is not an alternative. Get Su Yu to rejoin the negotiation. We don't have five hundred drops of Sunmoon blood essence to offer him. Tell White One to offer him ten heavenly source fruits..."

Inside the city, White One started shouting again.

Nobody replied.

The various races were still raging. The damn Heavenly Hunt Pavilion had scammed them. Su Yu had never intended to negotiate.

As for the divines and devils outside the city, they all had terrible expressions. They were not the only ones paying attention to this. Some divine and devil experts were paying close attention as well. In fact, even Invincibles were secretly paying attention to the negotiation.
