Chapter 944: The Battle of Myriad Races Concludes
Tian Gu is dead!
Kong is dead too.
Yet at this moment, only billions of beings send off Tian Gu, no one cares about Kong.
Dead is dead!
Some, though dead, are still remembered; others, though dead, are worth nothing!
And now, Su Yu steps back through the void.
He looks back into the distance.
Ji Tian howls madly: "Fight! Fight up! Only now, by killing them, is there hope! Gentlemen, did you see? Kong is dead! If this continues, we will all die!"
He roars!
A frantic roar.
"Su Yu will kill us one by one—first the others, now Kong, and sooner or later it will be our turn. We can wait no longer!"
He shrieks in anguish, danger!
Too dangerous!
Who could have thought that just now, Su Yu was merely an empty shell? His audacity is too great, beyond imagination. If Ji Tian had dared to strike then, Su Yu would surely have been exposed!
But Ji Tian did not dare.
Thus, Wen Yu borrowed Su Yu's world power and slew Kong!
A top existence of the 36 Paths, killed just like that.
How terrifying!
Ji Tian roars: "Heaven Gate, Earth Gate, do you just watch Kong be killed like this?"
Heaven Gate and Earth Gate remain silent.
What else?
We did not want Kong to die either, but Kong is already dead. You, Ji Tian, were foolish enough to seal yourself, failing to deliver a fatal blow to Su Yu, failing to kill him when he was weakest.
Now Su Yu has returned, he has recovered.
He is still a cultivator of the 36 Paths!
And on our side, we have lost Kong, and Shi has been scared away!
Heaven and Earth Gates, Sun and Moon Generals, Human Ancestor and Prison King, plus Ji Tian and Jing Tian—our strength is not weak, yet the gap between us and Su Yu is growing smaller!
Now... dare we?
Dare we fight recklessly?
Heaven Gate looks at Earth Gate, and Earth Gate looks back at him. Both know now: danger!
Su Yu is a man who does not act by the rules.
But... what to do?
Only three days have passed; they have not yet recovered to their peak. Right now, the two of them probably have only 39 Paths of power. Such strength should be enough to win, but people will die!
People will surely die!
No one knows who it will be.
Ji Tian is almost breaking down, shrieking with blood in his voice: "If we don't kill Su Yu, we will end up like Tian Gu and the others! Do you see? Do you see?"
He was wrong just now!
But now, he knows: Su Yu must be killed!
Must!
If Su Yu is not killed, scenes like this may keep appearing, like a demon, always beside you, gnawing at you bit by bit,
weakening your strength until you die powerless!
Just like Tian Gu and the others, forced to come knocking on death's door!
Ji Tian roars fiercely: "I am willing to be the vanguard, to pay for my earlier mistake. Gentlemen, if you still refuse to join hands and fight the enemy now, will there ever be another chance?"
He howls in anguish!
If they do not act now, there may be no chance!
Earth Gate said it would take a month, but only three days have passed.
In three days, Kong is dead, Shi has fled.
Suddenly two cultivators of the 36 Paths are gone!
The loss is too great, unimaginably great, causing Ji Tian piercing pain. If this continues, everyone will die. Even if they are still stronger than the enemy now, if this goes on, they will all die!
Su Yu is slowly eradicating their people!
And at this moment, beside Su Yu, one after another, the strong are also excited, their blood boiling.
They succeeded!
Just like that, they easily slew a 36-Path powerhouse, scared away the first stone of creation, and instantly reduced the enemy by two 36-Path experts.
Everyone looks at Su Yu.
And Su Yu, glancing at the frantic Ji Tian in the distance, suddenly speaks: "Ji Tian, I like clever people, and I like you, a clever man!"
Su Yu's voice carries endless coldness and mockery: "I originally thought that in this killing of Kong, I would still face a tribulation—a tribulation from you! But you, you took care of your old classmate, sealed yourself, and I didn't even lose a hair. Thank you!"
Su Yu's voice suddenly booms: "Since I became strong, all the deaths of Supremes, including the fall of the Six Saints of the Human Gate... seem to have something to do with me, Su Yu... It seems I am indeed an ill-omened man! Ji Tian, when will it be your turn? When will it be yours?"
At this moment, in the distance, figures emerge one after another!
Heaven Gate and Earth Gate want to speak, but Su Yu suddenly laughs. The next moment, he turns around, looks at the dissipating Tian Gu, and says calmly: "Tian Gu, you people, who perished for your race... are enemies of the race! In racial war, there is no right or wrong, no friend or foe! So I will see you off! You killed countless of my human race, and I killed countless of your races. You are dead, so we are even! The racial war may continue, but that is no longer my responsibility, Su Yu's..."
He waves his hand, pointing behind him, and smiles: "But these people are not! These people are the dregs of the era, a group unwilling to fade away, unwilling to lie low, only wanting to strengthen themselves by killing others! These old bastards, I will kill them one by one!"
"If they had fought the Human Gate with all their might, I, Su Yu, would have respected them. Not wanting to disappear with the times is normal—I, Su Yu, don't want to either!"
Su Yu declares loudly: "But to vainly imagine the myriad worlds as a resource depot, to imagine me, Su Yu, as nourishment—that is a fool's dream!"
Su Yu's voice shakes heaven and earth, and he shouts coldly: "Today I kill Kong, tomorrow I kill Shi. One kill a day, sooner or later I will kill all these bastards and bury them in this sky of myriad worlds!"
Su Yu turns back and roars loudly: "Ji Tian, come on! On your side, who dares to come? Heaven and Earth Gates are but petty cowards, timid fools! In the past, they cut off their own retreat before even seeing the enemy! Now that their strength has not recovered, do you think they dare to come? Ji Tian, if you kill Heaven and Earth Gates, I will give you a way out! You know me, as an old classmate, I give you a way out!"
Ji Tian roars: "Su Yu, at this point, do you still think you can live? I will surely kill you!"
Boom!
He breaks through the void, ready to lead by example, to show Heaven and Earth Gates that if they don't kill Su Yu now, the chance will be lost!
But when he flies halfway, no one follows!
Su Yu's face is full of mockery, a mocking smile spreading through heaven and earth: "Heaven and Earth Gates, Human Ancestor and Prison King—all are useless! If they weren't useless, do you think they would have sealed themselves without even seeing the Human Gate? Ji Tian, even if you have a brave heart, what can you do with a bunch of pig teammates? Do you think they will act?"
Su Yu points into the distance, sneering: "Even if I call them dogs, pigs, trash right now, they still won't dare to come! Having lived for countless ages, would they dare to come kill me just because of your words, Ji Tian? Unless they are about to die, they won't act until they have recovered to their peak! I've calculated: even if you, Ji Tian, and Jing Tian die, they still won't act! Only when you are all dead, and even at their peak they can no longer resist us, will they then take the risk to act!"
Su Yu's voice is full of mockery and disdain: "Do you believe, Ji Tian, that if you come alone now and I kill you, they will only watch and not lift a finger?"
"Because... I fear death!"
Su Yu laughed heartily: "When an old thing loses its faith and lives only for itself, Jitian, do you truly believe there is anything more precious to them than their own lives? There is nothing!"
"In their eyes, there is only their own life! You are so ignorant, and you dare call yourself the Great Sage of the Human Gate? You dare claim to understand the human heart? Pah!"
Su Yu spat out the word "pah," and his contempt shook the surroundings!
Yes, those people lived only for their own lives.
Without faith, without pursuit, without purpose—only strength, only survival at any cost!
Such people are strong, and they dare to fight to the death... but only when their lives are at stake do they panic more than anyone else. Yet before that, they can still recover and grow stronger—why would they act now?
Jitian truly does not understand the human heart!
But Su Yu does!
Jitian, on the way back, his face pale.
The human heart?
Is this the human heart?
He turns back, and Tianmen sighs, "If we attack now... how many of us will survive? Even if we win, can we match the Human Gate? Jitian, come back! As long as we stay together and don't separate, once Dimen and I recover... it will be their death!"
Jitian roars in fury: "Recover? How much longer? Is there still time?"
I truly don't understand the human heart!
For the first time, such defeat.
I lead from the front, I said Tiangu's fate is our fate, countless examples are right before your eyes—do you still not understand?
He roars: "If we strike now, we lose half our number, but we have a chance to take them..."
Su Yu sneers coldly: "This loss of half—half... who will it be? Jitian, why are you so ignorant?"
Jitian spits out a mouthful of blood, and at this moment, he seems to truly understand the human heart.
Yes, this half... who will it be!
Tianmen and Dimen are both afraid. Even if Jitian himself does not fear death, the death is not his alone!
Jitian still refuses to give up, roaring again: "They also fear death! Tianmen, Dimen, they too fear death! It's not just us who fear death!"
Does Su Yu's side have no one who fears death?
They do!
They must!
Su Yu is utterly calm: "They fear, yes, but I am the leader, understand? You are not, unfortunately! Here, my command is the only law! Unfortunately, you cannot do it! If you could, even if they feared death, they would follow your will. Jitian, do not make me despise you further. Go back! Otherwise... I will kill you!"
Jitian instantly collapses!
Collapses to the extreme!
Behind him, Dimen is silent for a moment, then speaks: "Jitian, we haven't lost! Just a temporary setback. From now on, let's not scatter, stay united. In 20 days, when Tianmen and I fully recover... we will surely kill them! Jitian, 20 days, trust us!"
"..."
Jitian looks like a madman, his eyes bloodshot.
Foolish!
20 days... for a transcendent being, 20 days is just the blink of an eye, utterly incapable of reversing anything. But that is Su Yu!
Su Yu, who was once his classmate!
He can turn 20 days into 20 years, 200 years, even 20,000 years!
In just three days, one of the 36 Paths, Kong, is dead, and Shi has vanished somewhere—suddenly two are gone!
Jitian is terrified!
Tianmen and Dimen still want to wait!
...
And at this moment, Su Yu has no interest in watching him.
He said it: Jitian does not understand the human heart.
Life is their only concern. As for the future threat Jitian speaks of, even if Tianmen and Dimen know it now, they will not act.
Now, he looks at Shenhuang and Shenhuangfei.
At this pair of Dao companions, separated for a hundred thousand years.
Tiangu is dead, and these two... will also die.
Daqinwang and the others did not stop because Tiangu died. This is a battlefield; on the battlefield, there is no personal sentiment!
Besides, there is no bond to speak of.
No matter how heroic the enemy, they are still the enemy's heroes—my foes!
The generation of mansion masters are all soldiers!
On the battlefield, soldiers only kill enemies, only obey orders!
Thus, whether it is the love between man and woman or the bond of brothers, none of it is in their consideration now!
As soldiers, they give these enemies the greatest honor: to fight with all their might and slay them!
Dazhouwang erupts with the Dao of the Great Path, Daqinwang thrusts his spear, Daxiawang swings his long blade, Datangwang punches out, Dashangwang unleashes mysterious fire...
A group of strong men, without a moment's hesitation!
Boom!
Daqinwang's spear strikes, and Shenhuang blocks in front of Shenhuangfei. She struggles to meet the spear, but Shenhuang stops her, gently brushes her white hair, and smiles: "These barbarians... strike too hard, leaving a body full of holes... not pretty!"
Shenhuangfei seems to both cry and laugh, her eyes only on him at this moment.
A hundred thousand years of waiting!
It feels like returning to the beginning, when he became the emperor and proclaimed to the heavens, marrying her, making her the empress of the divine race, the Dao companion of Shenhuang.
At the end of the ancient era, he vanished with the Human Emperor and others, and she waited for him in the divine realm for a hundred thousand years.
A hundred thousand years without leaving, unwilling to sleep, breaking her Dao to rebuild, just so she would not seal herself in slumber—I fear that the moment he returns, he will not see me first!
A hundred thousand years, tides rising and falling again and again. On the divine mountain of the divine realm, the divine favor flowers he planted withered again and again, bloomed again and again.
Now, they should bloom once more.
White hair, never apart!
Her long hair flies, white strands scatter in the wind. She looks at him, her eyes only for him, and suddenly laughs, radiant as the blazing sun: "The divine favor flowers... have bloomed!"
Shenhuang is startled, a hint of joy in his eyes.
The spear pierces his heart, but it cannot hide the delight in his eyes: "Bloomed?"
"Yes, they have bloomed!"
Shenhuangfei's smile is brilliant. Yes, they have bloomed!
Truly!
The Divine Emperor suddenly cast his gaze toward the divine realm, that crumbling realm, that turbulent realm, and upon that mountain stood a palace, within which lay a garden, and within that garden... bloomed the Flower of Divine Grace he had planted in days long past.
Years ago, he had said it was the blessing of the gods, and then he married her.
"One hundred thousand years... you have suffered..."
"I did not suffer, for I knew you were still alive!"
"Let us look upon the Flower of Divine Grace once more..."
The Divine Empress nodded; for the sake of their race, they had fought for a lifetime, fighting until their very last moments, but in this final fleeting instant, let us live for ourselves just this once!
Cradling the Divine Empress in his arms, the Divine Emperor suddenly stepped into the void, vanishing from where they stood.
Yet, left behind on the ground were two lifeless corpses!
That was the sheer power of the spirit!
He knew that Su Yu would not allow them to leave, that a living Emperor and Empress could never walk away, so they chose to die before they departed.
He looked toward Su Yu with a faint, pleading gaze.
He could not sustain this for long!
In such a state, he would soon dissipate into nothingness.
"One hundred thousand years..."
Su Yu watched them, gazing at the corpses they left behind, and then at the phantoms they projected into the distance, letting out a soft sigh with a gentle smile as he reached out a hand, turning the very fabric of heaven and earth!
The divine realm was instantly brought right before their eyes!
"You are not... so cold-blooded after all..."
The Divine Emperor suddenly smiled!
The Divine Empress also wore a dreamlike smile, wrapping her arms around the Emperor's neck as she chimed in: "Those with cold blood... would no longer fight for their race... no longer fight for an era... you fool, don't you understand?"
Those whose blood had truly run cold had fled long ago, scattered long ago, and begun living solely for themselves long ago!
Today, those fighting in this place were precisely a crowd whose blood had not yet grown cold!
The ones with cold blood were those mere onlookers!
"True enough!"
The two phantoms descended into the divine realm, landing upon the sacred mountain!
At this very moment, amidst the peaks, a brilliant crimson flower bloomed in an instant!
The two leaned against one another, simply holding each other close as they sat within the small pavilion in the garden, watching the blossom as they gradually faded away, and at the exact moment their silhouettes vanished, the flower withered; they were two crimson blossoms almost overlapping, and at the moment of their wilting, they fused into one, falling into the dust to disappear completely.
The Flower of Divine Grace!
"Farewell to the Divine Emperor, farewell to the Empress!"
Billions of living souls bowed in reverence once more!
Today, leader after leader was sent off; these people, these leaders, would never be forgotten by this generation of the myriad races, having influenced their entire lives.
Kneeling prostrate, they offered their sacrifices!
They were not incomparably powerful, yet they appeared at this exact moment and fought at this exact moment, for just as the Divine Empress had said, their blood was actually not yet cold.
Surrounded on all sides, Ji Wu let out a sigh, shook his head, and then smiled faintly, "My two seniors... this junior... is coming as well!"
This Emperor of the later era, who had achieved no great exploits, saw his physical body shatter completely into dust!
Far in the distance, among the Demon Race, Great Lord Mo Tian and the others exchanged smiles, all looking toward Mo Duo Na with eyes full of lingering hope, while Mo Ji wore an exceptionally brilliant smile: "Our Demon Race... is the most adept at war!"
Boom!
An explosive roar resounded; the Demon Race was indeed the most adept at war!
A race born of battle!
"Farewell to Demon Emperor Mo Ji!"
"Farewell to Divine Emperor Ji Wu!"
The weeping of blood echoed once more; today, they sent off one after another until their voices grew hoarse, and the sounds of bitter lamentation shook the four quarters.
The rumbling thunders continued without pause!
After a short while, a profound silence fell over heaven and earth.
All was quiet!
One after another, the Mansion Lords let their vital energy pierce the heavens, their murderous intent billowing to the sky.
The King of Great Qin raised his head with a cold, stern expression, spear in hand, his right hand striking his chest, and behind him, the various Mansion Lords raised their right hands in unison to strike their chests as the King of Great Qin bellowed in a resonant voice: "We pay tribute to the billions of sons of our Human Race who fell in battle! Today, we avenge our grievances and wash away our hatred! No matter how respectable the enemy, we shall sever their heads upon the battlefield to display our might! If the myriad races seek vengeance, then let us fight again!"
"Fight!"
One after another, the Mansion Lords roared at the top of their lungs!
This war, in the end, was still a victory for our Human Race!
Below, billions of humans roared in unison: "Honor their valor, sever their heads, tribute the heroic dead, and remember the racial feud!"
"Fight!"
The roar of the Human Race vibrated through heaven and earth!
Your myriad races have heroes, and so does our Human Race.
Our King of Great Qin guarded the frontier for five hundred years; five hundred years ago, in a battle with his back to the wall, he shattered the heavens and suppressed ten thousand enemies alone with a single spear!
Our Human Race has the Saber of Xia, the blade of the Xia family that cuts through all foes!
Our Human Race has the thirty-six founding Mansion Lords, with no traitors and no cowards, always leading the charge in every battle, with nearly half of them fallen to this day...
The Human Race is second to no other race!
At this moment, the myriad races sent off their own leaders, while the Human Race cheered for human heroes!
The war of the heavens and the myriad realms had finally drawn its curtains closed!
Such racial wars might still continue, might still spread!
But for this era, the war of the heavens, the war of the myriad races, was over!
Before the living souls of the myriad races, Mo Duo Na's purple hair gradually shifted, turning a deep crimson.
He looked toward Su Yu.
Su Yu was also looking at him.
This young talent, who had once collaborated with him in the Starry Mansion in days past, seemed to have aged considerably today, with an irrepressible sorrow lingering in his eyes, yet he swiftly regained his composure.
He lowered his head, his voice calm and even: "The myriad races are defeated, and the chief culprits are dead! Those whose hands are stained with human blood have all been executed!"
With a wave of his hand, hundreds of thousands, even millions of heads materialized, accumulating into a mountain of skulls.
Mo Duo Na lowered his head once more, "I implore the Emperor of the Universe to grant the myriad races a path to survival!"
His voice grew progressively louder and more resonant, "I implore the Emperor of the Universe to grant the myriad races a path to survival!"
Below, billions of creatures prostrate, their tears streaming like rivers.
Modena cried out again: "I beg the Emperor of the Universe to grant all races a path to survival!"
They knelt on the ground, crawling and begging for mercy.
This arrogant genius chose to live today, not to depart with those others. He lowered his head, prostrated himself on the ground, his body trembling, yet quickly regained his calm!
To live... to survive!
Leading these myriad creatures with no way out, seeking a path to life, he knew not where the road ahead lay, nor how difficult it would be; he only knew that this mountain of burden had been left to him by those others.
All were dead!
They had fallen in battle here.
The victor is king, the loser a bandit!
Tiangu and the others could not live, nor did they wish to. Tiangu said he would no longer kneel to Su Yu, nor let the Immortal race submit; thus, he did not want to see this scene while he still lived.
So he chose death.
They departed with grace, but Modena could not leave. He bore this heavy burden like a mountain.
By his side, Zhan Wushuang of the Divine race also prostrated himself, his body trembling—not from fear, but from unwillingness, reluctance, refusal, and extreme grief.
These young ones, today, under such circumstances, stepped onto the stage.
Su Yu said calmly: "Gather your followers, enter the small realm, and await orders! If I am defeated, you will surely die! If I prevail, there will be arrangements!"
"Thank you, Emperor of the Universe!"
Modena knelt and bowed, then waved his hand, gathering countless followers into the space of his weapon.
On the ground, blood and tears remained.
The Great Qin King and the others all looked at him, then at Su Yu. The Great Qin King said gravely: "If Your Majesty does not wish to commit slaughter, I, Qin Guang, whose hands are stained with blood, am willing to act and exterminate their race, to sever their civilization!"
To uproot the weeds!
Even if it meant slaughtering billions and becoming the eternal executioner of all realms, it mattered not!
Su Yu said calmly: "I made a promise to Tiangu, and naturally there were conditions! While I live, the myriad races have already been defeated and annihilated! If I die... the human race will handle it as they see fit. After my death, let the myriad realms change as they will!"
The Great Qin King stepped back and said no more.
The human race had already vanquished its foes!
Clearly, because Su Yu had promised Tiangu, he was unwilling to annihilate their race further, so the Great Qin King said nothing more.
Su Yu waved his hand, and the original battlefield turned into a vast crater.
All the flesh and blood he gathered.
Su Yu was silent for a moment, then his hand covered the sky, plucking stars and seizing the moon. Countless forces of the Great Dao converged, forming a stone stele.
On the stele was inscribed: Tomb of the Ten Thousand Emperors.
The stele stood tall; the crater turned into darkness and vanished from the spot, leaving only the massive stele still standing. Su Yu looked around and said: "The war of myriad realms ends with this battle! In the third year of New Yu, the myriad realms are pacified!"
"Great victory!"
"Long live the Emperor of the Universe!"
The heavens and earth cheered. Even though Su Yu said he would not annihilate their races and would leave everything to later generations, in the New Yu calendar, the human race had triumphed. The war of myriad realms, which had entangled ten tidal cycles and raged for a hundred thousand years, had come to an end today!
At this moment, the surrounding powerful figures were also filled with mixed emotions.
The Human Emperor and others looked at Su Yu with a trace of nostalgia and emotion.
The war that had stretched from ancient times to the present was now completely concluded. In the New Yu era, the myriad races could no longer stir up any waves.
And Su Yu said nothing more. He turned his gaze to Ji Tian and the others in the distance.
Once he dealt with these people, resolved the Human Gate, and even settled the Lord of Time... he, too, should take his final bow!
The era of myriad realms, with the fall of Tiangu and the others, suddenly lost much of its zest.
In the distance.
Ji Tian was also watching Su Yu, with a mix of madness and helplessness.
Damned bastards!
He turned to look at Tian Men and Di Men, then at the Human Ancestor and the Prison King, and finally, his expression turned to disappointment. They had ultimately chosen to stand by and watch; Tiangu and the others were a lesson!
Tian Men frowned slightly and shouted sternly: "Shi, come back! If you go alone, beware of being hunted!"
Shi had run away!
But where could he go?
The chaos was boundless, but deep within the chaos, without the coverage of the River of Time or the heavens, the chaos was no easy place; beyond the chaos, it was even more perilous!
At this moment, holding their ground and waiting for recovery was the only way out!
Deep in the distant chaos.
Shi, in the form of a burly man, looked back with fear and helplessness.
Go back?
The Tian Men era was nearly wiped out!
Except for Qiong, who had followed Su Yu, and Ri Yue, who still followed Tian Men, all the other lords of forbidden lands, except himself, were gone!
The so-called strongest era of Tian Men was now nearly dead.
"A bunch of bastards!"
Shi cursed bitterly—they were all selfish and self-serving!
The moment Kong was killed, he understood: they could not be relied upon!
As Su Yu had said, the only one these people could truly depend on was their own strength. If you had no power, no matter how strong others were, it had nothing to do with you!
At this moment, Shi deeply regretted.
Even if he had fallen out with them that day, he should have exchanged the Path of Wrath for the entire Human Ancestor's Great Dao, not just half of it, and then split it with Kong, which had barely improved him at all.
If he had known earlier, he would never have compromised that day, even if it meant a falling out!
Now these people were calling him back—did they still want him to be their cannon fodder?
He knew nothing of their plans!
If he went back, what benefit would there be besides resisting Su Yu and the others?
He was the weakest in this alliance!
Di Men was stronger than him; Ri Yue followed Tian Men; the Human Ancestor and the Prison King were in league; Jing Tian and Ji Tian were together. The next to die would only be himself!
At this moment, Shi saw through it all completely and understood clearly.
Originally, he and Kong were at least somewhat allied.
But now… gone!
Ignoring the cries of Tianmen, he paid them no heed.
"Chaos…"
Turning his head, he flew straight into the deep recesses of the chaos. The chaos was exceedingly perilous, a fact he knew all too well, but as a stumbling block from the Era of Heaven-Splitting, he was born of the chaos itself, born amidst the hazy obscurity of heaven and earth—he belonged to the chaos!
Just because you cannot endure it does not mean I cannot.
Go on and fight your wars!
I am leaving!
Flee!
To flee to a place where you can never find me. As for the yang energy, he wondered: once he escaped the domain covered by the Myriad Worlds, escaped the domain covered by the Long River of Time, would he still even need it?
Would he still face extinction?
He did not know himself, but he wanted to flee. As for submitting to Su Yu, that would merely make him cannon fodder, a hired thug, so why bother.
The stone transformed into a mountain of chaos, soaring toward the boundless void.
Never looking back!
…
Tianmen waited for a long time, failing to see Shi return, and with a hint of regret, let out a sigh: "He must have gone into the depths of the chaos, the chaos before the Era of Heaven-Splitting!"
Dimen and Tianmen also looked toward that direction, and Dimen said indifferently: "Let him go, he cannot escape! Having entered the region of the Myriad Worlds, entered the Era of Heaven-Splitting, entered the region left behind by that fellow… where can he flee? This is no longer the chaos before the creation of heaven and earth!"
With a sigh, everyone fell into silence.
There was no escaping!
The two gates of Heaven and Earth looked once more into the depths of the Long River of Time, toward that dark expanse of the river, "Renmen… is about to descend!"
They looked toward Ji Tian, who had now flown back with a trace of dejection. Seeing them look over, he waited a long while before saying: "If the River of the Myriad Worlds is not destroyed, even if Renmen descends, he might not necessarily appear… Only when the River of the Myriad Worlds is completely annihilated might he finally emerge…"
The others exchanged glances, saying nothing.
Ji Tian sneered: "If we do not kill Su Yu and his lot in this battle, there will be no need to wait for him to appear… we will all die!"
Tianmen said coldly: "If you truly possessed such foresight, you would have killed Su Yu long ago! Why wait until today? Just as Su Yu said, you, Ji Tian, are always so self-righteous! Always believing that you alone are wise! Before, had you not sealed yourself away and instead struck Su Yu at that very moment, Su Yu might already be dead! Do not shift all the blame onto others! Ji Tian, you are clever… but it is merely petty shrewdness! You have been in Renmen for so many years, yet just as Su Yu said, what you understand is only skin-deep; you do not understand the human heart!"
What was the human heart?
The human heart meant that since we have not restored our peak strength, we will not lightly make a move. Your repeated pressure will only deepen the rift between us!
The death of a single Kong was not enough to change their stance!
Ji Tian's grievances would only cause the cracks among everyone to grow wider and wider!
Dimen also said indifferently: "Whether it is me, Tianmen, or Zhou, all we seek is but to survive… Ji Tian, some things have already happened, so do not bring them up time and again!"
You ask us to take action, which is asking us to risk our lives; you truly do not understand us!
Ji Tian fell completely silent!
So… it was I who did not understand the human heart?
With a self-deprecating smile, Ji Tian took a deep breath and nodded slightly: "It was I… who was reckless! I only hope… that everyone will not fall for their tricks again!"
The crowd nodded slightly.
No one said anything more. Matters having reached this point, they could only wait. Even when they possessed two more experts of thirty-six paths they had not dared to strike, let alone now.
…
Meanwhile, at this moment, Su Yu had already returned to the Human Realm, bearing a hint of mockery, a touch of disdain.
Not out of arrogance, but simply finding it laughable.
Finding Ji Tian and the others utterly laughable!
"I said it long ago, foolish allies are often far more terrifying than formidable enemies!"
Su Yu looked at Qiong, the Martial King, and the others, suddenly laughing: "Sometimes, when you don't understand something, throwing your weight into a reckless charge is actually more fitting!"
Qiong snorted, feeling that Su Yu was mocking him once again.
The Martial King, however, was indifferent—it had nothing to do with him. Su Yu was talking about Qiong; he himself was no brute, he was a clever man.
And Su Yu also burst into laughter, exhaling a breath: "Your Majesty the Human Emperor, Senior King of Wen… come, let us go have a drink to celebrate our victory! The rest of you, do not wander about blindly, beware of being ambushed and killed. Today is a great victory, let us have a drink and talk!"
The Human Emperor and the King of Wen nodded slightly.
With a reach of his hand, Su Yu snatched up Doubao, who was currently chatting with the cooking pancake. Caught in Su Yu's grasp, Doubao hurriedly looked around and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that the Big Fat Dog isn't here!"
The Big Fat Dog always bullied him, and since he couldn't beat him, it was highly exasperating.
Wen Yu laughed: "Feiqiu hasn't woken up yet!"
"He can really sleep!"
Doubao scoffed, forgetting that he himself had actually slept for many years.
At this moment, Doubao was somewhat excited: "Su Yu, can we eat Tian Gu now?"
"The man is already dead, what is there to eat!"
Su Yu laughed, "I'll give you something better to eat later, much more fragrant than Tian Gu!"
"Really?"
Doubao was overjoyed; there was something even more fragrant than Tian Gu?
Meanwhile, the King of Wen and the Human Emperor exchanged a glance—Tian Gu, Doubao, the Seal of the Human Emperor.
Tian Gu must have told Su Yu something, which was why Su Yu decided to spare the myriad races. It likely had to do with the Seal of the Human Emperor. Could there really be something hidden within that Seal of the Human Emperor?
At this moment, several of them grew intrigued!
To the side, the Master of the Dead Souls and the others also had a vague inkling, but they did not say much.
Perhaps it was a secret, and whether they heard it or not did not really matter.
Of course, there was still a bit of curiosity.
Seeing their curiosity, Su Yu suddenly smiled: "Forget it, let's all go together! The Human Emperor used the Seal of the Human Emperor to deceive Senior Qiong for quite some time; let's go admire the Seal of the Human Emperor together!"
Qiong wore a look of embarrassment; in truth, he did not particularly want to look at it!
Every time he saw the Seal of the Human Emperor, he felt it looked so beautiful, so familiar, so heartwarming… this feeling was simply a complete nightmare!
Yet he could not withstand his own curiosity. Acting all coy and hesitating for a long while, he finally gritted his teeth and followed along toward the Palace of the Cosmic Emperor, thinking to himself: I'll go see what on earth is so rare about it!
