Chapter 943: Tiangu Falls!

Let all races come and witness!

Let hatred be remembered, let heroes endure forever!

Every race has its own spirit, its own faith. Su Yu does not despise those strong ones who fight for their own race; what he scorns are only those who betray their race, betray their faith, and know not why they fight.

In this era, across the myriad realms and races, Su Yu does not distinguish right from wrong. To him, immortals, demons, and gods are wrong, are enemies; to his own race, these leaders have not done wrong.

And men like Great Qin King—they too are heroes, heroes of this era, heroes of the human race.

For centuries they have fought for humanity, guarding the heavens, campaigning north and south.

This is the duel between Great Qin King and his comrades, and Tian Gu and his ilk!

Su Yu is merely an accident.

The shout pierces through the world.

At this moment, even the Nether Emperor, who did not fully understand, now grasped something.

He looked at Tian Gu, then at the God Emperor, and in an instant countless thoughts surged within him. Suddenly, grief welled up from his heart.

It would be a fight to the death!

He stared at Tian Gu, gritting his teeth, “What have you gained in exchange?”

Tian Gu said solemnly, “In exchange, we have gained shelter for all our races! A death battle—to win eternal renown! To win the preservation of our races! To win the continuation of our civilization! Nether Emperor, are you willing to fight?”

The Nether Emperor was furious, despairing. He cast a deep glance at Tian Gu.

Tian Gu, you are truly something!

And at this moment, among the crowd, Modona was calm. He had long known this outcome, yet… deep in his eyes, a trace of sorrow was still hidden.

The God Emperor’s consort grasped the God Emperor’s hand, saying nothing.

The next moment, countless figures from all races appeared. Su Yu waved his hand, and heaven and earth were sundered; those people were locked within a vast expanse of sky and land.

He waved again, and above the human realm, everything here was revealed.

Su Yu’s voice boomed like a great bell, ringing out clearly: “Tian Gu, God Emperor, Ji Wu, and the rest—you are willing to fight to the death against the thirty-six lords of the human realm, to battle until none remain! In exchange, I, Su Yu, will shelter all races and preserve their civilizations!”

“I have agreed!”

Su Yu’s voice was immense, icy and stern: “Let all remember this moment! Remember this day! The ten-thousand-year slaughter between all races and humanity, since the ancient times, ends today!”

“This is the fate of the defeated!”

“Fight!”

With a low shout from Su Yu, the next moment, Great Qin King and his companions all flew forth.

Now, Great Qin King, spear in hand, faced the opposite side. A murderous aura shook heaven and earth. He swept his gaze around, looking at Tian Gu and the others, and thundered, “I, Qin Guang of the human race, have attained the fifteenth level of the spear dao. Who dares to face me?”

Tian Gu was about to step forward, but the Nether Emperor shot him a vicious glare, filled with anger, and transmitted his voice: “Tian Gu… you bastard! You three races cast aside my Nether, Dragon, Phoenix, and other races, and secretly came to Su Yu… hateful, detestable, worthy of death!”

He was furious, yet at this moment, he knew there was no other path!

This mighty figure, who had once escaped from Su Yu’s grasp by scattering his dao, had done what no one else could to save his life.

He was also one of the very few who, having been trapped by Su Yu, had managed to flee from the encirclement.

Perhaps… the first?

Su Yu himself did not recall

whether there had been a second person who, under his siege, could still escape. The Nether Emperor was certainly one of the few.

He was a shrewd, cowardly, and resourceful fellow.

And precisely because he was shrewd, he knew he had no choice. So be it… perhaps in this final moment of his life, he should do something.

The Nether Emperor stepped forward, exhaling lightly: “I, Mingyun of the Nether race, have attained the sixteenth level. My dao is scattered and my wounds are not yet healed. Great Qin King, do you dare to accept the challenge?”

Great Qin King was only at the fifteenth level; the Nether Emperor was at the sixteenth, but his injuries had never fully recovered.

As the emperor of a race, the Nether Emperor of the myriad realms had long fallen. Now, only a few of the Nether race still survived. At this point… there was no other way.

Great Qin King had actually wanted to fight Tian Gu, but since the Nether Emperor had stepped forward, he did not mind taking up the battle.

“I accept!”

“I accept!”

Boom!

A spear rippled through heaven and earth!

A sword formed from the Nether River materialized in an instant; the Nether realm appeared, covering the sky and land. The great battle erupted at once!

At this moment, even at the Gate of Earth, many mighty figures cast their gazes here.

Even the Human Ancestor and the others had not expected that at this moment, Su Yu would not do anything else but urgently resolve the conflicts among the myriad races.

“Childish!”

At this moment, a thunderous sneer rang out: “Cultivators of the myriad realms, still quarreling among themselves at such a time… Truly, the human heart is the hardest to fathom!”

Ji Tian said nothing, merely watching in silence.

And the Human Ancestor and the others remained silent.

The strife among the myriad races had lasted for over a hundred thousand years—no, it had begun since the ancient times, even the primordial era, with endless wars among them.

But today… this conflict that had spanned countless ages seemed to be coming to an end.

The myriad races had lost!

Ji Tian watched silently, recalling the day Baizhan was killed. Baizhan’s death had not been such a grand spectacle. On that day, if not for the final moment when they merged their dao into Su Yu’s world, Baizhan would not have died even peacefully.

But today, Su Yu had granted Tian Gu and the others the highest honor, allowing the thirty-six lords to fight under the gaze of all realms.

This Su Yu… sometimes truly unfathomable!

And what had Tian Gu and the others used to buy Su Yu’s protection?

Ji Tian did not know, but he felt that without sufficient benefit, Tian Gu would not have dared to approach Su Yu, and Su Yu would not have given Tian Gu and the others a chance.

Boom!

A spear pierced through heaven and earth. Though Great Qin King was not even a first-rank, his killing intent at this moment shook the heavens!

Was there anyone with a stronger killing intent than his?

Not necessarily!

For four hundred years, he had sat alone in the battlefields of the heavens, commanding troops and fighting countless battles. From very early on, Great Qin King had cast his life aside. If not for Su Yu, he would have died long ago in the Starry Mansion!

A spear, a sword—the two clashed in the void, attacking and defending, their daos colliding, blood flying everywhere.

The Nether Emperor had many tricks, usually favoring the bizarre, but today he fought head-on against Great Qin King.

Boom!

The spear and sword clashed again—this was a contest of life and death.

The last battle at the Mountain of Men ended midway, the strong not yet joining the fray. Today, the combat resumes, to continue until the leaders of ten thousand races fall!

No flourish, only a fight to the death!

Collision of Dao with Dao!

Clash of spear and sword!

One man wields sixteen Daos, the other fifteen, yet the Great Qin King holds the advantage throughout, for the Nether Emperor’s wounds from long ago were truly too grave, never healed, and never given the chance to heal.

The Great Qin King fights to the utmost, his roars unceasing, as if to purge five hundred years of grudges in one fell stroke!

The Great Qin Prefecture has campaigned across the heavens for five centuries, suffering the heaviest losses, with tens of thousands of soldiers falling each year.

The Great Qin Prefecture has the most people, the most soldiers; within its borders, a billion souls, a third of them warriors—one great prefecture with tens of millions of troops, the largest source of soldiers among all human prefectures.

From the Tenth Tidal Surge of humanity, he has led armies in battle, slaughtering on all sides.

Today, all manner of enmity and rancor erupt at once.

Silence.

Only the clash of weapons, the gasping breaths of combatants at their limit, the dull thud of blades piercing flesh.

“Kill!”

A fierce roar bursts from both mouths at once. With a thunderous boom, the Great Qin King thrusts his spear—the heavens and earth hold only that single lance—piercing straight through the Nether Emperor’s skull, even as the Nether Emperor’s sword runs through the Great Qin King’s throat!

Boom!

A shattering sound: the Nether Emperor’s head explodes, the Great Qin King’s neck is severed!

Brutal!

The first battle, beyond all expectation, ends in the most savage manner—both sides fight to mutual ruin.

The Nether Emperor’s head reforms, his Dao slightly fractured. He turns to look behind him, at the few Netherfolk, with an inexpressible sigh. This battle is doomed to defeat!

A war without victory!

After countless ages of campaigning, this is how it ends—he feels regret, resentment, reluctance.

Yet he has no choice!

“After I am gone, fare well!”

The Nether Emperor smiles. “Since you have a legacy of civilization, live on well… Hope… Expect… that one day, my Netherfolk may rise among the myriad heavens! I was no good leader—a reed swaying in the wind, following humanity today, the Three Races tomorrow. The Netherfolk could only drift with the gale… In this life, I failed to lead them to ascendancy—a deep regret!”

Boom!

The next moment, a great crash rings out as the Great Qin King strikes again with his spear, while the Nether Emperor’s sword pierces the heavens!

Rumble!

A colossal sound: the Nether Emperor’s Dao, swept by that spear, snaps and collapses, while the Great Qin King, struck by that final sword, has his Dao power pierced through!

The Great Qin King spits blood, yet his shattered Dao instantly restores itself to its former state.

He looks toward Su Yu in the distance. Su Yu, face calm, says flatly: “Do not think it unfair… This is fairness!”

The Great Qin King’s Dao lies within his own world!

To restore it is not difficult!

Yes, this is fairness.

There is nothing unfair—I have already granted them fairness; otherwise, I alone could slaughter them all.

The Great Qin King says nothing.

The Nether Emperor’s Dao snaps, his flesh begins to crumble. With a trace of regret, he laughs, turns to Su Yu, and nods: “Very fair!”

Fair?

Indeed, very fair!

Only at the final moment did he help the Great Qin King restore his Dao.

Boom!

The Nether Emperor explodes, torn asunder, utterly fallen!

Behind him, the Netherfolk, still a million strong, now fall to their knees, prostrate on the ground. Seeds of hatred are sown. Countless among the ten thousand races, eyes reddening, raise their voices: “Farewell to the Nether Emperor!”

“Farewell to the Nether Emperor!”

Shout after shout resounds through heaven and earth!

See him off!

See off this mighty one who warred with humanity for years, who blocked the Human Emperor and his kin, who escaped death at Su Yu’s hands.

The Netherfolk’s sovereign!

Today, they know not how many more they must see off!

The Nether Emperor has fallen!

The next moment, a figure emerges from the void—the Dragon Emperor, and then the Phoenix Emperor appears instantly!

The Dragon Emperor speaks softly: “The Phoenix Emperor and I wish to face the Bright King and his consort… Will you grant this?”

Among the crowd, the Bright King’s eyes flicker as he looks at him.

The Dragon Emperor says calmly: “Will the Bright King grant this?”

The Bright King says gravely: “I am a cultivator of twenty-six Daos!”

After the Human Emperor’s ascension, his own strength has also increased—fully twenty-six Daos.

The Dragon Emperor laughs: “To face a strong foe, to fall is no regret! The Phoenix Emperor and I have crossed blades with you for years… We truly do not wish to fall at the hands of juniors! Your twenty-six Daos are your own achievement… Since the Yu Emperor is willing to grant our wish… will you indulge us a little, yes?”

The Bright King looks at Su Yu. Su Yu says calmly: “It is allowed.”

The Bright King frowns slightly, but steps forward. The next moment, the Bright Queen also sighs and walks out from the crowd.

Indeed, the Dragon and Phoenix Emperors have tangled with them for years.

The Dragon Emperor transforms into his true form—a colossal dragon!

And then, a phoenix cry rings out across the myriad realms!

The Dragon and Phoenix Emperors now soar through the nine heavens, phoenix fire covering heaven and earth, dragon and phoenix in harmony, flames surging!

The Bright King’s great formation appears, sweeping across the world!

Boom!

Dragon and phoenix merge, flames rise, the formation quakes!

Yet a gap is a gap.

The Bright King had intended to hold back by a third, but the Dragon Emperor’s fierce shout resounds on all sides: “I am your opponent… Do you need to hold back? Bright King, you are irresolute—truly the most useless of the Four Human Kings!”

The Bright King turns cold, his formation erupts, ten thousand swords fly forth!

The Bright Queen waves her hand, and a million stars crash down!

Within heaven and earth, flames burn through the void. One dragon, one phoenix, burst forth with dazzling golden light. Their Daos ignite—the sky shatters, the earth splits!

The battle of the mighty had truly reached this moment; though far outmatched, these two unleashed their greatest power!

Within three minutes of combat, the dragon-phoenix phantoms dimmed, countless stars crashed down with a thunderous roar!

The true forms of dragon and phoenix were shattered to pieces!

The Dragon Emperor let out a fierce roar, erupting with unprecedented strength; with a boom, he tore through the great formation, while the Phoenix Emperor spat a torrent of flame, and with a bang, ignited Ming Wang’s robe!

Boom!

The two emperors exchanged a smile; the next moment, their phantoms plummeted, heaven and earth split asunder, and across the myriad realms, the dragon and phoenix worlds saw mountains collapse and seas rage, the very cosmos changing color!

Ming Wang extinguished the flames on his body, slightly disheveled, but said nothing.

The Ming Empress flew to his side, silently watching the utterly consumed Dragon and Phoenix Emperors, equally mute.

Rumble!

An explosion rang out; the two emperors had fallen completely!

Countless dragons and phoenixes cried out and roared, blood and tears streaming; billions of beings once more howled in fury: “Farewell to the Dragon Emperor!”

“Farewell to the Phoenix Emperor!”

The war of all races ended in this manner, and countless were unwilling.

Yet such was the outcome.

The battle that had persisted until now finally concluded with the departure of one emperor after another.

Three first-rank cultivators had fallen in succession.

Knowing death was certain!

Yet there was no choice.

At this moment, Tiangu stepped forward and smiled: “One-on-one is too troublesome! God Emperor, Empress, Ji Wu, Mo Ji…”

He named them one by one, laughing: “Let it be a group battle! All surviving lords of the thirty-six mansions, come forth! We’ve seen off one elder after another… watching from the sidelines is too painful!”

He turned to look at Moduona, the only one left among the crowd, and smiled: “Moduona! I entrust the Immortal Clan to you, and so too the other clans… Remember this: living… is even more painful! But you are still young… far younger than us…”

A golden longsword materialized in his hand, and with a smile, he looked at Su Yu: “Thank you, Yu Emperor, for your grace! The Immortal Clan… does not submit! We only seek temporary shelter under Yu Emperor’s protection; our clan is not a vassal of humanity! What I wish to leave behind is the spirit of the Immortal Clan, not its name… I hope the Yu Emperor grants this!”

Su Yu’s voice rang out grandly: “If I conquer the four quarters, no clan need submit to me! I have no need for that!”

At these words, the four realms trembled.

Tiangu laughed heartily, gazing at the mansion lords opposite; one by one, their figures emerged, and at this moment, a murderous aura soared to the heavens!

Tiangu then looked at the God Emperor and smiled: “A devoted couple, will you fight together?”

The God Empress nodded slightly, smiling, and gripped the God Emperor’s hand.

A parting of a hundred thousand years!

They had reunited only a few days ago; she did not wish to be separated again.

For their race, all that could be done had been done.

Today, she only wanted to walk toward the Yellow Springs with this man before her, even if it meant death.

The God Emperor also showed a trace of a smile, holding the God Empress’s hand tightly. He looked at the Great Zhou King—among the thirty-six mansion lords, only he could contend with him!

Additionally, there were Ji Wu of the God Clan, Mo Tianzun and Mo Ji of the Demon Clan, as well as Dragon Tianzun, Phoenix Tianzun, Sage Marquis, Yuansheng Marquis, Huang Tianzun, Dao Tianzun…

One by one, the top cultivators stepped forward!

The three first-rank cultivators had gone into battle first, almost as if to die, so that the thirty-six mansion lords would not be utterly outmatched.

Even dying sometimes required consideration of how to die.

Such was the tragedy of the weak!

Tiangu then turned to the Great Qin King and smiled: “Shall you and I have a bout?”

The Great Qin King looked at him; his injuries were now nearly healed, and he said calmly: “Then let’s! I’ve long wanted to have a match with you!”

“In truth… I would rather spar with Su Yu at this moment, but alas… the gap in strength is too vast—a great regret!”

Tiangu revealed a smile, his long hair flying, holding the golden longsword: “As a cultivator, perhaps the greatest regret lies here—not even having the right to fight an opponent. Qin Guang, I hope you won’t disappoint me!”

“And I hope you won’t disappoint me either!”

“Kill!”

Both sides roared, and the next moment, battle erupted!

Boom!

Spears, longswords, long blades…

This was a battle to end the war of the myriad realms!

Countless were watching!

All the myriad realms, all of humanity, including the previous era and the one before that, were watching.

Perhaps, to the super-tier, they were weak.

Yet the fight of these people was still so fervent.

The clamor of slaughter never ceased!

Tiangu and his group were the most conspicuous—Tiangu, at the fourteenth path, wielded a longsword, his path of longevity surging, life force intertwining; he was not only fighting the Great Qin King but also aiding others!

Whenever others were wounded, he rescued them time and again—such was the Immortal Clan!

They might not excel at slaughter, but in any battle, the Immortal Clan’s emperor was often the core.

Tiangu’s great path erupted; whenever anyone was injured, he swiftly healed them!

Not all of the thirty-six mansion lords were strong!

One after another, they were gravely wounded!

Yet after each injury, Su Yu quickly restored their great-path power.

This was an unfair battle, yet also a fair one; Su Yu did not hide it—each restoration was done openly, letting all see the difference between victor and vanquished.

My people—I can heal their wounds at any time!

While the strong of the myriad races could only passively await death!

How long they could endure was the meaning of this battle for them.

To fall in combat!

Boom!

A thunderous sound rang out; the Great Qin King thrust his spear, and Tiangu was about to dodge but couldn’t—at that moment, a figure emerged and was torn to pieces by the spear!

Yuansheng!

That senior brother of Tiangu, who had always vied with him for the Immortal Emperor’s throne.

Now, Yuansheng was shattered by the spear, his head still intact; he looked at Tiangu, suddenly broke into a smile, bared his teeth, and seemed wistful: “Junior brother… I’ll go ahead first… Your senior brother is not your equal; I’ll take the first step on the Yellow Springs road. If there’s a next life, I’ll be your senior brother again…”

Tiangu nodded, a smile in his eyes.

Boom!

Yuan Shenghou utterly exploded. This cultivator, who had contended with Tian Gu for countless ages, at this moment felt release, let go.

Tian Gu retreated, dodging the next spear thrust from the Great Qin King.

And at that instant, a blade suddenly materialized beside him. Tian Gu evaded again, and the Great Xia King appeared. His opponent just now had been Yuan Shenghou; now, with Yuan Shenghou slain, the two joined forces and charged together at Tian Gu!

They did not choose to watch from the sidelines—that would be a disrespect to war!

With full strength, they would slay their foe!

The myriad races’ camp.

Moduo’s purple hair flew wildly as he watched in silence. When Yuan Shenghou fell, Moduo felt a pang of melancholy. The next moment, he shouted, “Farewell to Yuan Shenghou!”

“Farewell to Yuan Shenghou!”

The myriad races knelt, bowing to these mighty ones who had fought for their slim chance of survival!

Hatred, fury, tears!

At this moment, on the human side.

The Human Emperor and the others were slightly moved. They couldn’t help but look at Su Yu. To plant such seeds of hatred among the myriad races, yet not to annihilate them—Su Yu… truly… left them speechless!

Before the eyes of all races, in a manner both fair and unfair, he had slain one mighty being after another. Was Su Yu truly unafraid of backlash?

Such a scene, such an outcome, was most likely to ignite the fiercest resolve in powerful cultivators!

And Su Yu, he looked back at them, as if unconcerned.

He gazed at the Human Emperor and the others, then at the human realm, then at the myriad races. Su Yu’s voice boomed, carrying indifference: “If the myriad races can produce a supreme being, I, Su Yu, await your coming to kill me! If you have grievances, take revenge; if you have grudges, settle them!”

Enemies filled the world—so what?

He turned his gaze back to the human realm, his voice cold and harsh: “This is the fate of the defeated! For five hundred years, the human race has been torn by internal strife, countless warriors have fallen, and extinction has loomed time and again. This battle is a warning to the world! No one is your savior—your only savior is yourself!”

“If you are lax, if you are arrogant, if you are conceited… the myriad races are your fate!”

Boom!

Another explosion rang out. The Desolate Heavenly Lord, with strength to uproot mountains and cover the world, had seized a great mountain in his hand, but at this moment, he could not bring it down. His heart was punched through. The Great Tang King gasped heavily, staring at his foe. The Desolate Heavenly Lord spat blood, blood gushing endlessly…

His Dao was also breaking!

In this battle, they fought with their very Daos—the most fundamental of struggles.

Death or injury—nothing else!

The Desolate Heavenly Lord looked at the Great Tang King. In the end, the great mountain in his hand did not fall. Instead, it suddenly hurtled toward the Great Qin King, crashing with a thunderous roar, forcing the Great Qin King back a step and allowing Tian Gu to escape the crisis!

A smile spread across the Desolate Heavenly Lord’s earth-yellow face. The next moment, he turned to ashes and vanished!

“Farewell to the Desolate Heavenly Lord!”

The myriad races shouted in unison!

In the void, blood and tears flowed freely.

Another one was sent off!

At this moment, Ji Tian let out a long sigh.

The Prison King opened his eyes. The Human Ancestor sighed: “I never imagined the war of the myriad races would end like this.”

Kong’s huge eyes flickered with light: “These fellows, even at this moment, are still slaughtering each other… truly… they don’t know when to die!”

Sooner or later, they would all die!

Ji Tian and the others said nothing. Kong did not understand.

Kong continued: “Su Yu and his lot have nothing better to do. A bunch of weaklings, not even one above the twentieth Dao. If it were me, I’d have killed them all long ago and been done with it. Making such a big show… was it necessary?”

Ji Tian and the others ignored him even more!

But at that very moment, a shocking event occurred!

From a distant place, Su Yu seemed to sense something. Suddenly, he let out a cold shout: “Blasphemer! The war of the myriad races—how dare you question it?”

In that instant, heaven and earth spun!

In a flash, Su Yu and his group all appeared!

The void shifted!

Under the stunned gazes of Ji Tian and the others, Su Yu led a host of peerless experts, moving heaven and earth, and instantly materialized before them!

And Su Yu’s cold shout resounded through the heavens: “Tian Gu, there are those who look down on you! In my eyes, these people are not even your equals! Today, I, this Sovereign, will slay a supreme being to see you off, to let them know… in my eyes, they are not worthy of you!”

At this moment, even Tian Gu was shocked!

And Su Yu, with a sneer, added: “I hope you hold on a little longer, don’t die too quickly, lest you miss this sight, miss my victory, and lest you think that I, Su Yu, cannot protect you! I will let you know that these people are nothing but chickens and dogs!”

Su Yu’s aura exploded. In an instant, he appeared before Ji Tian. With his thirty-six Daos, he blocked Ji Tian’s view, his momentum surging to its peak!

Ji Tian’s face changed!

Was Su Yu, this madman, truly insane?

Kill a supreme being to see them off?

What was he saying!

And at this moment, the Lord of the Dead stood before the Heavenly Gate and the Earthly Gate, his expression calm, deathly aura overwhelming. The Earthly Gate couldn’t help but curse: “Have you all truly gone completely mad?”

What are you doing!

Weren’t you fighting the myriad races?

Suddenly coming here… what do you want?

Do you think you are our match?

Ridiculous!

And at this moment, the Human Emperor stood before the Prison King and the Human Ancestor, with the Literary King by his side.

The Literary King’s expression was calm, the Human Emperor equally serene. The two gazed at the Human Ancestor and the Prison King, focusing mainly on the Prison King.

The Prison King’s face shifted, but he said nothing.

And Qiong instantly appeared before Jing Tian, joining Su Yu in blocking Ji Tian and Jing Tian.

Wen Yu and the Martial King appeared before Shi and Kong. Shi and Kong were both surprised—was this truly madness?

Wen Yu, however, smiled and said: “You two, do not join the battle. Wait until Su Yu has slain Ji Tian, then consider which side to take. What do you think?”

At this moment, the Human Emperor’s voice also rang out calmly: “Prison, Zhou, you two should also watch from the sidelines. Since Su Yu wishes to kill a supreme being to see off the myriad races… why spoil his pleasure?”

Everyone was shaken!

Su Yu was going to slay Ji Tian!

36 Paths, battling 38 Paths!

What is he thinking?

Su Yu’s voice rose again, “Tiangu, hold on a little longer… don’t let me down!”

In the distance, Tiangu’s roar shook heaven and earth: “Then… I shall wait!”

At this moment, Tianmen and Dimen both felt like laughing—truly mad!

Right then, Su Yu’s heaven and earth trembled violently!

Streams of aura pierced through heaven and earth.

Great Daos rippled, heaven and earth stretched wide, acupoints flickered—Su Yu seemed to be forcibly merging acupoints, and within his heaven and earth, countless Daos emerged, rapidly fusing. Su Yu looked at Jitian and said calmly, “Dare you fight me alone?”

Jitian’s face shifted. He glanced around. On Su Yu’s side, they were severely outmatched!

On Qiong’s side, they held a slight advantage, but the two Sun and Moon powerhouses were also rushing over. With two Superexistences present, cooperating with Jingtian, Qiong would gain no benefit either.

If they all joined in a fight to the death now, Su Yu’s side might be annihilated!

He looked at Su Yu, took a deep breath, and said, “You want a decisive battle with me?”

Su Yu replied calmly, “Indeed! If you kill me, this fragile alliance collapses! You win, without paying too great a price! Tianmen, Dimen—this is your chance! Once I die, you can take them down effortlessly! They might even flee on their own… It all depends on whether Jitian can kill me!”

Su Yu added with a hint of scornful laughter, “Old classmate, I don’t like you much—you talk too much! I prefer Wan Mingze—he says little! Do you dare? If you can kill me, once I’m dead, my side will surely crumble… You win! I’ll grant you that, send you a great gift—do you dare accept it?”

Su Yu’s heaven and earth churned violently!

At that moment, countless heavens and earths stretched across the void. The heavens and earths of the Human Emperor and others also manifested. The Human Emperor’s voice was cold: “Kill Su Yu, and we admit defeat. Dare you try once? Otherwise… killing us will cost you dearly!”

The Lord of the Dead was equally indifferent: “Neither of you has fully healed… If Su Yu’s life is the price, you win and heal in peace; if you lose… and Jitian is slain, then today… will surely be a bloody battle!”

Tianmen and Dimen were both astonished.

Are you serious?

At this moment, Su Yu and his group were not particularly strong—any side held an advantage over them. What was Su Yu up to?

Or… did Su Yu truly believe he could kill Jitian?

Jitian was also shaken. He looked at Su Yu: “You really want to kill me? Do you think you can?”

Su Yu smiled: “Try and find out, no? Jitian, do you dare?”

Jitian surveyed his surroundings, even probing to see if any hidden powerhouses lurked. He was suspicious: “Is it related to my second grandfather? Or to Lantian?”

Could it be that those two had broken through, giving Su Yu confidence?

Were they hiding in the void, waiting to join Su Yu and deliver a fatal blow?

At the same time, a faint ripple seemed to stir in the River of Time. Jitian’s eyes moved, and he quickly sent a telepathic message to the others: “Be careful. This guy never fights unprepared. His sudden madness is suspicious! It might have something to do with the Human Gate… Watch the river closely—could the Human Gate be descending?”

Everyone’s hearts tightened!

Was that it?

That was why Su Yu, this madman, dared to attack!

The gap in strength was still huge!

They didn’t want to pay too great a price, but that didn’t mean they couldn’t kill Su Yu and his allies.

Yet Su Yu knew this—why did he take the initiative to strike?

Suddenly, all thoughts turned to the Human Gate. Everyone focused their attention on the River of Time, and indeed, a faint ripple now stirred there. Tianmen and Dimen both grew wary!

The Human Gate!

It seemed the Human Gate was stirring!

At that moment, Su Yu’s Human Sovereign Seal appeared in his hand, unleashing boundless power that swept through heaven and earth. Everyone turned to look at Su Yu, shaken. Su Yu’s heaven and earth trembled violently!

Now, the Human Sovereign Seal seemed to be drawing power from the River of Time!

Within the River of Time, the power of the Great Daos seemed to respond!

All flashy and grand—in short, the commotion was immense!

Jitian quickly retreated, on high alert, constantly watching Su Yu and the River of Time!

Danger?

Was it?

Had Su Yu reached an agreement with the Human Gate?

Elsewhere, things were fine—he actually held the advantage here—but facing Su Yu at the 36th Path, he suddenly felt a pang of fear!

Waves of calamity force erupted from Su Yu!

Calamity loomed!

At this moment, countless locusts even emerged from the River of Time, flying toward Su Yu. Jitian’s face changed again: “You… are the Human Gate? Impossible! Su Yu… who are you?”

He was shaken!

The others were also stunned—what kind of ultimate killing move was Su Yu about to unleash?

Jitian considered striking first several times, but found no opening. Su Yu’s movements were too vast, shaking heaven and earth, making the river tremble!

All directions were covered and swept by Su Yu’s heaven and earth force!

Torrents of immense power spilled out!

At that moment, Lantian’s figure faintly appeared in the river.

Jitian grew even more wary!

Almost afraid!

The light on Su Yu’s Human Sovereign Seal grew ever brighter, as if a fatal blow could come at any moment!

Jitian’s expression completely changed. He did not strike first but instead raised layers of defenses. He had to block this move of Su Yu’s—it seemed like a super ultimate technique, faintly revealing the Dao of Time and Reincarnation!

Visions unfolded one after another!

When a powerhouse struck, such visions rarely appeared, because power was usually controlled!

But now, Su Yu’s power seemed to exceed its limits!

This sight terrified the others as well.

Could Su Yu really kill Jitian in one blow?

And Su Yu, his voice deep with laughter, said, “Defend all you like, Jitian. If you block this move, I’ll be spent! If you can’t… you die! Just in time to send off Tiangu and the others—it’ll count as me, Su Yu, doing right by them!”

Jitian was truly tense now.

Su Yu was so confident!

Had this move borrowed power from the Human Gate?

Very likely!

Wan Tiansheng wasn’t here—maybe he had gone… to the Human Gate?

The more he thought, the more wary and terrified he became.

Ji Tian continuously set up layer after layer of defenses, while the Heavenly Gate and Earthly Gate kept transmitting voices: "Do you think he can do it?"

"It's hard to say. Su Yu often catches people off guard... Besides, this time he took the initiative to attack, and you saw it too—their strength is far inferior to ours!"

"But Su Yu isn't the type to seek death... Clearly, he must be confident he can deal with Ji Tian!"

"If Ji Tian really gets killed... what do we do?"

"Be prepared... prepare to intervene and stop it. Ji Tian cannot be killed!"

"..."

The two gates quickly conferred via voice transmission.

At that moment, Shi and Kong were also discussing something, while on the opposite side, Wen Yu's aura erupted, tinged with vigilance: "Don't even think about interfering! Though I only have 34 Dao, I can still hold you off for a while... Once Su Yu kills Ji Tian and sees you make a move, do you think you're stronger than Ji Tian?"

Shi and Kong said nothing. Interfere? Nonsense!

They were only discussing whether to flee or fight if Ji Tian actually fell!

Who was planning to intervene?

Still, to deny them any chance, Wen Yu turned to the Martial King and gritted her teeth: "Brother Taishan, you hold off Shi, and I'll hold off Kong. Make sure they can't make a move—even if it means death, we must stall for time!"

The Martial King nodded gravely, and the two swiftly flew to opposite sides, cutting off Shi and Kong.

Shi and Kong paid it no mind, both utterly speechless.

A 34-Dao and a 32-Dao—not weak, true.

But if they really made a move, those two might not be able to stop them!

Forget it, let's see what Su Yu does first.

Who knew what was going on?

They felt a bit uneasy, especially Kong, who sensed danger. Could it be that Ji Tian would really be instantly killed by Su Yu?

An instant kill of a 38-Dao—that was terrifying!

At this moment, Su Yu's momentum grew ever greater. Even Jingtian was alarmed, shouting: "Ji Tian, strike and break his buildup!"

What was he doing?

Just defending, letting Su Yu gather power—even he was getting nervous!

But Ji Tian was grim and heavy-hearted. Break it?

He feared that Su Yu wanted him to break it!

Wait for the enemy to make a move—that was the best strategy!

Defense was the best response!

With his full 38-Dao defensive power, even if Su Yu suddenly erupted with 40-Dao force, he wouldn't kill him easily!

After a long buildup, suddenly, the Human Sovereign Seal burst forth with incomparably dazzling radiance, as if to blind everyone's eyes!

The seal flew toward Ji Tian, not fast, and its aura didn't even seem particularly strong.

But the commotion was immense!

Boom!

The sound of the seal shattering the void, mixed with the crack of space, was deafening!

At that moment, all the myriad realms seemed to see only this seal!

A seal of matchless brilliance!

Ji Tian's expression shifted slightly. He suddenly looked toward the River of Time, where a face appeared, as if the myriad Dao had connected to the Human Sovereign Seal. Ji Tian's face changed: "I knew it!"

He knew they truly had a way to deal with him!

"Civilization!"

With a sharp cry, a massive halo quickly formed around him, enveloping the entire surrounding world. His voice carried a hint of fierceness: "Let's see how you break this seal..."

Su Yu was stunned, then said in awe: "Self-sealing?"

Ji Tian sneered. Try to break it!

Su Yu was utterly amazed. Damn, you really did it, old classmate. I... I'm so happy!

And just as everyone's eyes were fixed on the Human Sovereign Seal, Wen Yu, who seemed to be eating something, turned her head to look at Su Yu's direction. Kong also looked that way, not at all worried about Wen Yu.

There was still a gap between a 34-Dao and a 36-Dao.

Wen Yu was weaker than him, but he didn't dare to make the first move and start a fight, so he simply ignored her!

At that moment, a flame flickered in Wen Yu's hand.

A flame that could burn the heavens.

A flame gathered from the power of all Dao!

Just as Kong and everyone else were looking in that direction, no one paid any attention to Wen Yu!

Su Yu's commotion was too great—so great that at this moment, the entire universe seemed to hear only his voice!

Wen Yu couldn't help but admire... Su Yu knew how to pick his target. He had said he would choose Ji Tian, and Ji Tian, who liked to be clever, would definitely go all out on defense, always thinking of the Human Gate, and would never dare to act rashly... Human hearts—all under Su Yu's control!

Su Yu was truly terrifying!

And just as Su Yu made his move, Wen Yu acted. At this moment, she absorbed more than ninety percent of the power from Su Yu's world. Su Yu was now just a façade!

Merely bluffing Ji Tian!

The ninety percent power of a 36-Dao cultivator, plus all of Wen Yu's own power, plus half the power of her brother's world...

Her world and Su Yu's could merge.

At this moment, Wen Yu's strength skyrocketed!

No one paid attention to Wen Yu. Even if they did, they would have focused on Qiong, the Lord of the Dead, or the Human Emperor.

But Wen Yu, whom no one cared about, struck!

A single blow shattered the heavens, flames burning the sky!

Boom!

A thunderous roar instantly drowned out Su Yu.

Kong sensed it and instinctively defended. A 36-Dao like him—would he fear Wen Yu?

Was Wen Yu insane?

Did he think he was afraid of her?

Ridiculous!

But the moment they clashed, Kong's giant eyes shrank wildly, filled with shock. Boom!

Another thunderous roar!

A piercing scream—Kong's leg was directly severed by Wen Yu's palm!

Flames scorched heaven and earth, and with a thunderous roar, the physical body was burned to ashes—this flame was too powerful!

Thirty-eight Paths!

Absolutely thirty-eight Paths!

Unforeseen, almost a sneak attack right before your eyes—a thirty-eight Paths cultivator ambushed a thirty-six Paths one, and that thirty-six Paths fellow hadn’t even been paying much attention!

In an instant, the strongest horn was snapped off, the body consumed by fire!

Boom!

The Great Dao manifested, and the next moment, its will was shattered by Wenyu’s flames. Wenyu had a targeted approach against these Supremes—her flame power was overwhelming!

“Ah!”

A piercing scream echoed in all directions!

An unimaginable ambush!

A strike that could never have been predicted!

In a flash, Wenyu incinerated the opponent’s will, seized the Great Dao, and the next instant, including Su Yu, she roared wildly: “Retreat!”

Boom!

In that very moment, the group converged and vanished in the blink of an eye!

Heaven Gate and Earth Gate wanted to block them, but their faces shifted as they looked toward Jitian. Jitian was frantically breaking his own seal, roaring with fury and rage!

“Su Yu!”

Boom!

Only then did heaven and earth tremble violently, and Kong’s despairing howl rang out!

“No… I don’t want to die…”

Rumble!

The entire world quaked—a thirty-six Paths powerhouse, the first ancient beast since the creation of the world, had been killed by Wenyu just like that!

“Su Yu!”

The group roared in anger. Heaven Gate and Earth Gate wanted to pursue, but they exchanged glances… the next moment, they halted.

Then, Heaven Gate said gravely, “Rally together—don’t scatter again!”

Jitian furiously broke his seal, only managing it after Su Yu and the others had fled. His eyes bloodshot, he screamed madly!

In his rage, he bellowed, “Chase them down! Kill them all!”

Yet… no one moved!

Shi had even fled!

Kong’s death had terrified Shi out of his wits!

He feared that Martial King might suddenly unleash thirty-eight Paths power, so Shi ran the fastest.

The remaining few, even if they joined forces, might not be able to kill Su Yu and his group.

Suddenly, heaven and earth fell silent!

Kong was dead.

……

In the distance.

Tian Gu had been watching all along. At this moment, he suddenly laughed!

A wild, manic laugh!

Su Yu!

What a Su Yu!

Impressive—truly impressive!

With a considerable gap in strength, he had still managed to slay a thirty-six Paths cultivator before everyone’s eyes—unbelievable!

“Hahaha… Su Yu, I believe in you… I believe you can shelter all races… Thank you for seeing me off… Thank you…”

To have a supreme powerhouse see me off—I, Tian Gu… it was worth it!

At that moment, Tian Gu let out a great laugh, and with a thunderous boom!

Under the combined assault of Great Qin King, Great Xia King, and the others, blades and spears struck together, tearing him apart!

Tian Gu’s laughter echoed through heaven and earth, utterly different from Kong’s screams—he laughed with joy!

“I, Tian Gu, have no regrets in this life. Even in death, a supreme falls with me… No regrets!”

“Hahaha!”

Rumble!

The thunderous sound resounded in all directions.

“Farewell… Tian Gu, Immortal Emperor!”

Heaven and earth shook. Countless voices cried out, countless immortals wept blood and tears, yet they also smiled—our emperor died without regret!
