Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 878: Let's Forge The Body First (3)



Su Yu was naturally oblivious to the fact that both Great Ming and Great Xia were sending help their way.

He was already inside the Skyrend Valley. And he wasn't too worried. After he entered the valley, the saber qi around him seemed to have come alive. He did not feel pressured by the saber qi. Instead, he felt very comfortable.

The saber qi in the air was very intimate to him. He started circulating his source qi according to the Sky Sundering Saber's path. With 144 acupoints, the saber qi he generated was quite strong as well.

The saber qi of Great Xia King started swimming around him, slowly merging into his own saber qi. As the two sources of saber qi came together, his body jolted. This felt great! First, he focused on sensing the saber qi around him. Suddenly, a new thought appeared in his mind. He took out some heavenly source qi and started forging his body again.

At the same time, he was still absorbing the character intent left in his sea of willpower. The change character was starting to show signs of a breakthrough. Sure enough, advancement was much easier in the Allheaven Battlefield.

Instead of absorbing Great Xia King's saber qi, he had actually decided to forge his body with it. More and more saber qi gathered around him. And as time passed, a vague comprehension slowly emerged in his mind.

"Sharp!"

"Indomitable."

"Confidence."

Numerous ideas appeared in his mind. These were the emotions left by Great Xia King. That was his slash. A slash of incomparable sharpness, indomitable momentum, and absolute confidence.

Sure, that slash had ultimately failed to kill his target, but the emotions contained within the slash were very real.

In fact, Su Yu was starting to suspect that the saber qi had only remained here for so long because it had failed to kill its target back then. It was unwilling to accept that result and fade away before achieving its goal.

Su Yu could feel that very clearly. He could feel the regret and unwillingness of Great Xia King after failing to kill his opponent. Su Yu wondered who that Invincible was. Even if that Invincible could survive Great Xia King's slash, that person must have been injured gravely, right?

Additionally, Su Yu had also discovered an entirely different aura in the Skyrend Valley. A divine and holy aura.

"An Invincible from the divine race!"

Su Yu's eyes flickered as he realized something. He withdrew his saber qi and activated a cultivation method of the divine race instead. He picked the cultivation method of the first divine race.

The moment that cultivation method was activated, the surrounding saber qi erupted with a rumble. Instantly, numerous wounds were left on his body. But right at that moment, a holy aura erupted and healed those wounds.

Great Xia King's saber qi was trying to kill him while the holy aura was trying to heal him. That aura might have originated from a first divine. Only the Invincible of the first divine race could fight Great Xia King and survive, forcing Great Xia King to leave with regret.

After focusing on his body for a bit, Su Yu was instantly overjoyed. Great Xia King's saber qi was terrifying, but the holy aura was not weak at all. It was able to rapidly heal all his wounds.

"This feels great! This is the best method to forge my body!"

Su Yu was as happy as someone who had stumbled upon a treasure vault. With the saber qi, he could temper his body. With the divine aura, he could heal his body. Coupled with his heavenly source qi, he was able to cultivate at a much faster pace than before.

He stopped hesitating and circulated the divine cultivation method with all his strength. When the saber qi grew too strong for him, he would switch to the Sky Sundering Saber. In that manner, he was able to prevent himself from getting killed by the saber qi.

This was great! This was the exact kind of place he needed. Here, he could complete several body forgings! Then and there, he decided to make this place his home. He swore to not leave no matter what!

With that, Su Yu started roaming the valley while cultivating. At the same time, he was also looking for Huang Teng and Wu Qi. Huang Teng knew the Sky Sundering Saber as well, so Su Yu could vaguely sense that Huang Teng was actually not too far from him.

At the same time.

Huang Teng frowned and looked backward doubtfully, "Someone else entered."

"Is that so surprising?"

Wu Qi replied expressionlessly. It would be weirder for nobody to enter instead. Did this guy think that those people would spare him?

"No!" Huang Teng was all smiles as he said, "It's weird because the newcomer seems to be triggering the saber qi here. Is that person a cultivator of the Sky Sundering Saber as well? But...not many people know that. Is it someone from the Xia Family? Xia Yuwen?"

He couldn't think of anyone else from the Xia Family with appropriate strength. The others were either too weak or too strong. He was very curious.

But this newcomer was also way too weird even as a Sky Sundering Saber cultivator. At times, the saber qi would converge there. But at times, a different type of energy would converge there. Just what was going on?

At times, it even felt like the saber qi was rejecting the newcomer. What an odd fellow. Was it a divine instead? Just what was going on?

Huang Teng couldn't reach a conclusion. He said, "Let's keep moving. Don't stay at one place for too long. Find a weaker path to kill our way out."

Wu Qi nodded and asked curiously, "So the newcomer knows the Sky Sundering Saber as well?"

"Seems so. Or maybe not. It's too hard to say. Even if he knows the Sky Sundering Saber, the saber qi here was left by Great Xia King. That person can only resonate with the saber qi here if they only cultivated the strongest version of the Sky Sundering Saber. And the Xia Family does not teach a lot of people the strongest version."

But Huang Teng himself wasn't sure of the people who had received the strongest version from the Xia Family. In any case, the version he learned was one with 144 acupoints. He had heard that Great Xia King's Sky Sundering Saber had exceeded 144 acupoints. He wondered if a divine-grade Sky Sundering Saber had been created.

"Strongest version of Sky Sundering Saber?"

Wu QI thought about it and shook her head. But suddenly, a particular name emerged in her head, "I don't know about anyone else, but I do know one of them."

"Who?"

"Su Yu."

"Him?"

Huang Teng nodded, "I've never met him before, but I've heard a lot about him. That's an incredible person. He's Bai Feng's student and someone born of a common family. I wonder if he would attack me if he saw me. After all, I did beat Bai Feng up three times in the past."

Wu Qi couldn't be bothered to answer. Huang Teng should save that question for Su Yu.

"Su Yu...it's very unlikely that he would have the courage to come here." Huang Teng laughed and said, "Forget about everyone else. What do you think about Cui Lang of Great Ming?"

Not long ago, the index he held shook. When he took a look, he saw that Red Armor was dead. Meanwhile, Cui Lang of Great Ming had reached the 18th place of the Profound Index. This was way too surprising.

He still did not believe that Cui Lang was capable of this. He also saw the updates after Green Armor was killed. He didn't believe it then as well. Suddenly, he thought of something.

"Cui Lang, Su Yu, Great Ming, Sky Sundering Saber..." He suddenly asked, "Wu Qi, when was the previous index updated?"

"Half an hour ago."

"Half an hour ago...that was the same time I felt the changes of the saber qi here." He muttered, "Right after Cui Lang killed Red Armor, a Sky Sundering Saber cultivator entered this place. Cui Lang killed Red Armor...if that happened nearby, he would probably be forced to enter the valley after doing that. In that case, is Cui Lang the Sky Sundering Saber cultivator?"

Wu Qi's eyes flickered, "Cui Lang?"

Huang Teng nodded, "There are too many coincidences. Right after Red Armor was killed, Cui Lang climbed to the 18th place in the Profound Index. At the same time, a Sky Sundering Saber cultivator appeared here. Apart from him, who else could it be?"

He added, "Is Cui Lang close to Great Xia? Would the Xia Family teach him the strongest version of the Sky Sundering Saber?"

"..."

No. Wu Qi answered inwardly. How would the Xia Family teach their Sky Sundering Saber so easily? They would never teach the strongest version to someone like Cui Lang.

"Weaponsmith."

Huang Teng looked at Wu Qi and asked, "Previously, you said that Su Yu was very close to Teacher Zhao Li, right?"

Wu Qi nodded.

"And that Cui Lang is proficient in hammer techniques. He seems to be using Teacher Zhao Li's Soul Expanding Art..."

Wu Qi nodded again. She frowned and said, "You mean..."

"It's only a guess." Huang Teng smiled, "I'm just curious about one thing. Is he really that much of a genius? He has only entered an academy for about a year. A year ago, he was still at the Source Opening Realm. A year later, he managed to enter the Profound Index? No, if that was really him, he would actually qualify to enter the Earth Index."

Wu Qi didn't know what to say.

After a long while, she solemnly warned, "Don't make careless guesses."

She was starting to worry. This wasn't right. How could that kid grow so quickly? She couldn't believe it. Cui Lang was Cui Lang. Su Yu was Su Yu. The two were definitely not the same person.

Just a few months ago, she had gone to Great Ming Cultural Research Academy and warned Su Yu to treat her little sister well or she would beat him up… But was she supposed to believe that same fellow had grown to surpass even her?

Bullshit!

Huang Teng had always loved acting smart and talking rubbish. Why couldn't Cui Lang be so strong? Was he jealous of Cui Lang?

Huang Teng shrugged indifferently. What was the harm in guessing? Things were indeed very suspicious. In any case, he would have his answer after meeting this so-called Cui Lang.

Wu QI gloomily asked, "Do we link up with him?"

"No." Huang Teng shook his head, "Regardless of who the newcomer is, don't link up unless we're sure of their identity and strength. If they are too weak, they might burden us and get us killed. If they're too strong, we might end up burdening them and getting them killed.

"We will operate separately. If we are really forced to come together, we will act according to the situation. You are not new here. You shouldn't be making such elementary mistakes."

Wu Qi couldn't even be bothered to give a response. She had only asked that because this fellow had been speculating that the newcomer was Su Yu. Otherwise, why would she care? It wouldn't benefit either of them for one party to become the burden of the other party.

"If your guess is right, he might be here to save us."

Huang Teng looked at her with shock, "You...did you manage to seduce both teacher and student?"

"..."

Boom!

A frosty blade shot past Huang Teng's face, creating a red wound there. Wu Qi glared at him coldly.

Huang Teng was somewhat speechless. He said, "You said it yourself. He's here to save you. I thought I was the only person willing to do this. After all, this is the same as throwing my life away. If he's also here to save you...Also, back then, Bai Feng tried to...uhm...with you...Wow, your relationship status is so complicated."

Wu Qi coldly said, "You have a filthy mind."

"How is my mind filthy?"

Huang Teng was feeling very gloomy. She was the one claiming that the newcomer was here to save her.

"If it's him, he's only here because of my younger sister."

"So he managed to snag both sisters?"

Huang Teng's mouth widened, "No way...Double Wu...refers to you sisters? I thought one of them was his senior sister?"

"..."

"Shut your mouth!"

Wu Qi was furious. She didn't feel like talking to this shameless fellow anymore.

Huang Teng felt even more gloomy. Why was she taking her anger out on him? She was the one who had led him toward that conclusion. It sure was hard to understand women.

Also, was the newcomer really Su Yu? In fact, he was still finding that hard to believe. But he could sense that the newcomer was a Sky Sundering Saber cultivator. If it wasn't Su Yu...was it really possible that Cui Lang actually knew the strongest version of the Sky Sundering Saber?

***

Huang Teng could only guess that Su Yu was nearby, but Su Yu was certain that Huang Teng was nearby.

"Did that fellow sense my presence? Why is he running away? Is he trying to avoid meeting me?"

Whatever. It wasn't like saving Huang Teng was very important to him. In that case, he might as well focus on his body forging. He was going to complete his thirteenth body forging soon. If that fellow ended up dying before he completed his body forging, that fellow wouldn't be able to blame him since that fellow was the one running away from him.

He turned into a golden silhouette and vanished into thin air. After his disappearance, a shabby golden saber appeared in the valley. That was the metal elemental race's metal transformation.

A lot of people had perished in the valley before. Thus, broken weapons could be found all over the valley. Su Yu was able to survive much better than Huang Teng. With his metal transformation, concealment technique, deceit character, change character, and calm character, very few people could discover him.

Since he had some free time, he decided to first focus on body forging. If someone happened to be walking by him, he wouldn't mind cutting that person down.

He might not be stronger than Huang Teng, but he far surpassed Huang Teng in terms of survival skills. How dare that fellow run away from him. So be it. That would only make his life easier.
