Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 969: No Peace Among Humanity (1)

Ming He had died.

She was the third high-stage Sunmoon to die, perishing in the hands of her own student. Yet another seventh-stage Sunmoon death spirit appeared in the city.

But at this point, nobody cared anymore. One more or one less, what did it matter?

Long Dou had an unsightly expression as he stared at Ming He's corpse. The corpse was badly ravaged, completely opposite to the boundlessly elegant and ethereal immortal she was when she first arrived here.

She was dead. Even though she was the student of an Invincible. Even though she was a seventh-stage Sunmoon. She could not escape a miserable death.

"Damn it!" Na Dazhi cursed, "If she wanted to die, so be it. But she should have died to a death spirit instead! Damn it! Because of this, one more Sunmoon death spirit has appeared!"

The others either didn't care about the additional death spirit or lacked the courage to say something. That was not the case for him. He did not fear the immortal race.

Dao Cheng merely lowered his head and mourned in silence.

Na Dazhi was still furious, but he said nothing more. She was already dead. What was the point?

At that moment, a cloud appeared above Dao Cheng.

It was not as large as expected. If he had killed a seventh-stage Sunmoon through actual combat, the reward would have been much bigger. But Ming He was already severely weakened during her death, and she had volunteered her life to him. Thus, the reward for killing her wouldn't be too big.

Once again, Dao Cheng's strength grew. After killing Silver Armor, he was already near the Mountainsea Realm. And with this reward, he received the final push needed to step into the Mountainsea Realm.

Even after the advancement, his aura continued growing. He had received a large amount of willpower and some unknown energies from the clump of cloud. His apertures started fusing, and his sea of willpower enlarged.

Rumble!

A short while later, his sea of willpower shook, pushing him into the second stage. And after some time, he entered the third stage. He had digested the entirety of his heavenly reward to become a third-stage Mountainsea.

Long Dou merely shot them a glance and said nothing.

But after a moment, Na Dazhi lost his temper again, "Fool. Exchanging a seventh-stage Sunmoon to a third-stage Mountainsea with an unstable foundation. Every young genius out there is suppressing their advancement. What's the point of advancement?"

For him, a Mountainsea like this was not worthy of respect. Yes, heavenly rewards were great. But rapid advancement was not necessarily a good thing for these young geniuses.

With such rapid advancement, Dao Cheng would be forced to spend much more effort strengthening his foundation in the future. Furthermore, what even was the point of losing a seventh-stage Sunmoon for a third-stage Mountainsea? Would it improve their current situation?

A seventh-stage Sunmoon was an existence that could potentially achieve dao affirmation in the future. But a third-stage Mountainsea...could not provide any guarantees.

Dao Cheng remained silent.

Na Dazhi continued scolding, "That dumb woman has even picked the wrong timing to die. It hasn't even been that long since Su Yu injured her. The heavenly laws might even take Su Yu's contribution into consideration when assigning credits for her death. Her death might also produce a heavenly reward to Su Yu."

Hearing those words, Dao Cheng's expression finally changed. He raised his head, revealing his bloodshot eyes.

When Na Dazhi noticed his stare, he shouted, "What are you looking at? Am I wrong? That was a stupid timing. She should have waited longer. That is the only way to prevent the heavenly laws from crediting Su Yu with her death. Truly idiotic. With the timing of her death, Su Yu has probably benefited even more than you."

If Ming He had lasted longer, the injuries she received from Su Yu might not have been judged as the main contributor to her death.

But by dying so early, she might have indirectly helped Su Yu. Thus, Na Dazhi's anger was understandable. At that point, Dao Cheng coughed a mouthful of blood from sheer anger and indignation.

Impossible! Was that possible? Yes. That was possible.

At this time, Long Dou berated, "Shut up. Na Dazhi, are you going to stop yapping? Start resisting the death spirits already. Do you want to die here?"

Of the twenty-one Sunmoons, fifteen had died. As for the high-stage Sunmoons, only Long Dou, Lei Huo, and Na Dazhi remained.

Among the death spirits, there were four high-stage Sunmoons. No, including the newly appeared Sunmoon, there were five of them now. On top of that, there were over twenty Sunmoon death spirits of varying stages.

Na Dazhi was completely losing his temper. With a sneer, he said, "Die? What do you mean? If I'm really going to die, I'll slaughter all the death spirits before that. All of us will die together."

He was a blood fire devil. He was crazy. He feared nothing.

"Su Yu...what an impressive young man. Truly ruthless." Na Dazhi clenched his teeth, "How resolute. What happened to Mo He and Bing Hong? Who killed them? Ye Hongyan alone is definitely not capable of that. The humans are truly savage. Su Yu should have learned from Lan Tian and betrayed humanity. The blood fire race is a much better place for him. He can kill to his heart's content if he's with us."

Similar to the blood fire devil who had appeared during the Starfall Mountain incident, Na Dazhi believed that Su Yu would be a good fit for the blood fire devil race.

Kill!

Kill to his heart's content!

Also in the building were three other Sunmoons. One from the silkwyrm race, one from the mountainbreak bull race, and one from the golden lion race.

All of them were covered in thick death qi. Their expressions turned unsightly upon hearing Na Dazhi's words.

At this time, Dao Cheng stood up. He looked at Long Zhan, the golden dragon, Tianduo, and the young genius from the golden lion race before saying, "It is unlikely that we can survive this. At this rate, all of us will die. Not even Invincibles have the courage to attack an ancient city alone. Only when multiple Invincibles join hands to break into the city will we be able to survive.

"We are all Invincible descendants. We can ignite our blood essence to catch the attention of our Invincibles. Persuade them to negotiate a joint mission with the other Invincibles. That is our sole option if we don't want to die here. None of us can survive after all the Sunmoons die. No, we will probably die before them. How much longer can you withstand the death qi erosion?"

The Invincible descendants had an additional option. They could try to call upon their Invincibles. Alone, none of them would be able to make any Invincible move. The immortal race would not deploy multiple Invincibles just for Dao Cheng alone. Thus, they had to take the initiative instead of relying on the Sunmoons. All of them had to call upon their Invincibles to make it work.

Long Zhan, whose eyebrows were already dyed black by the death qi, said, "That won't be easy. Of course, we can get Mo Duona to join us as well. His teacher and elder are both Invincibles. With him, the possibility will be higher. After all, the devil king of the original devil race is extremely powerful. With two original devil Invincibles taking charge, the probability of our survival will increase massively."

The young geniuses started taking the matter into their own hand. Compared to those Sunmoons, it was far easier for them to contact the Invincibles and even persuade the Invincibles to move. It was far more unlikely for the Invincibles to actually make a move for these Sunmoons.

"Where's Mo Duona."

They looked around. Mo Duona was not there. Even Na Dazhi was feeling quite gloomy when he thought of Mo Duona. Yes, he was here to join the fun. But he was also here to save Mo Duona. But that fellow had not shown up even now.

At that moment, an individual appeared outside. With his purple hair fluttering in the air, he strolled amid the thick death qi nonchalantly and said, "I'm here."

"..."

Everyone stared at him in disbelief. Mo Duona seemed to have grown even stronger than before. He was able to casually walk amid the death spirits, making it look like he was having an even easier time here than the Sunmoons.

While the Sunmoon death spirits were attacking the living Sunmoons, Mo Duona took the opportunity to shoot through the opening and enter the building.

Na Dazhi asked in stupefaction, "Are you a ninth-stage Cloudbreach Realm already?"

"Yes." Mo Duona nodded, "Greetings, Devil Lord Na Dazhi."

Na Dazhi said, "You're a ninth-stage Cloudbreach now...no, wait...are you now strong enough to fight Sunmoons?"

"No." Mo Duona said, "I can only guarantee an escape from an early Sunmoon. Sunmoons are still too strong."

But those words were enough to shock everyone. Guarantee an escape from early Sunmoons. He was only a Cloudbreach. This young genius was excessively talented. While everyone else was struggling to survive, he had probably been digesting his fortuitous encounter in an unknown building.

"Is Su Yu gone?" Mo Duona asked, "Is he fine?"

"..."

What?

Na Dazhi grumbled, "Yeah. He fled. He used a teleportation talisman."

Mo Duona nodded, "That is not surprising at all. Someone like him is very difficult to kill. This is how the world works. The more talented one is, the harder it will be for one to die. Gathering the fortune of heaven and earth, surviving a hundred battles, and achieving Invincibility. Such is the way of a genius."

After sending a Sunmoon death spirit flying with a punch, Na Dazhi questioned furiously, "I heard you went after him previously. Why didn't you kill him?"

With an indifferent smile, Mo Duona said, "Why should I? Previously, he was weaker than me. It was pointless for me to kill him. That wouldn’t be an achievement. That wouldn't challenge me. That wouldn't provide me with heavenly rewards. The act of killing itself is never a goal to chase after. The principles of the blood fire devils never have been compatible with mine. I don't kill to kill. I only have one goal. Dao affirmation. Become an expert even among Invincibles."

He would only kill Su Yu for the sake of strengthening himself. Nothing else. The act of killing was never his goal.

"Su Yu is a lot more ruthless than you."

Na Dazhi did not mind the retort. In fact, even as a seventh-stage Sunmoon, he did not view Mo Duona as a junior. Mo Duona only needed a little bit more growth and he would be as strong as a regular Sunmoon.

"Right now, you are probably incapable of defeating him anyway..." Na Dazhi stopped mid-sentence and laughed it off, "No, that might not be the case. He is out of Ye Batian's characters. He won't be a match for you without those characters."

Mo Duona cared little about that. He looked at the others and said, "It is true that we need the help of Invincibles if we want to leave. But all of you know this. Many years ago, some Invincibles attempted to attack an ancient city. During that incident, at least one Invincible perished..."

After a short pause, he continued, "We need at least five Invincibles working together. They need to break into the city in a single instant, grab us, and leave. Not a single delay is allowed. Otherwise, the ancient city might unleash an unparalleled expert upon us. At that time, all of us will die."

At least five Invincibles. That was his conclusion.
