Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 985: Red Clouds Island, Bright City (2)

Su Yu was naturally unaware of the events at the Giant Crab Realm's entrance.

He was carefully moving while paying close attention to his surroundings. The moment he noticed an expert, he would rush off. He was trying to avoid any conflict in the area. There were simply too many people in the area. The moment a battle broke out, others might notice him.

He was unaware of the arrival of Zhan Wushuang.

That was a Mountainsea with the strength to kill Sunmoons. In short, that was not an opponent Su Yu could defeat. In fact, even Mo Duona was probably not his match in combat. He was only higher in rank due to his younger age. Zhan Wushuang was an eighth-stage Mountainsea who had killed a Sunmoon through direct combat with no trickeries. He was a true monster.

Su Yu continued moving underwater. After a while, he got bored of the same old sight. He started thinking of moving out of the water. Perhaps the world up there would be much more interesting. At that thought, he started moving upward.

A short while later, his head emerged from the surface of the sea. He had transformed into a humanoid life form with a tiny horn on his forehead. Yes. He was pretending to be a mountainbreak bull who had transformed into the humanoid form. After all, this was also a race he was extremely familiar with. He knew their cultivation methods, their racial abilities, the power of their blood essence, and even their smell.

After floating into the air, he was faced with a boundless and clear body of water in all directions. Not a single island was in sight. The sky above him was adorned by countless glittering stars, presenting him with a peaceful and beautiful sight.

With the gentle breeze brushing past him, he felt exceptionally comfortable. But behind this comfortable environment were countless dangers.

Su Yu did not forget where he was. He did not forget how dangerous this place could be.

As this was his first time seeing a sea, he wasn't too used to such an environment. Furthermore, he seemed to have lost his sense of direction during his travel underwater. Thanks to his powerful instincts, he was still able to pinpoint the correct direction to travel toward after emerging from the sea.

Having determined his direction, he started flying forward. After a few thousand kilometers, he would probably reach the Red Clouds Island. That island wouldn't be too difficult to find. After all, it was an island constantly shrouded in red light. It was a rather well-known island in the eastern part of the Sea of Stars.

Whoosh!

Abruptly, Su Yu dove down. Just as he was above to enter the sea, a red streak of light flew past. It was a passing Sunmoon. And the Sunmoon didn't even spare him a glance. Su Yu rolled his eyes at the arrogance of the Sunmoon. What was the big deal?

He had killed plenty of Sunmoons before. How dare this Sunmoon fly over him with complete disregard? Su Yu comforted himself by telling himself that he would forgive that Sunmoon since he was a kind and magnanimous man.

"Are Sunmoons so common here?"

Su Yu was feeling quite doubtful. A Sunmoon could be considered a big shot everywhere. Even in a major race, a Sunmoon would be standing at the very top alongside the elites of the race. Ignoring the Sunmoon who was watching over a realm entrance earlier, why had he encountered yet another Sunmoon? He hadn't even been here for long.

This was merely the start of his venture into the Sea of Stars. He resumed his journey. After a while, a loud shriek rang out behind him. Moments later, a massive hawk with wings over a hundred meters in length appeared in the distance. An individual stood atop the hawk. Su Yu noted that the individual was not a human, but he did not dare to pry further to determine the origin of that individual.

That was an extremely powerful individual. In fact, even the hawk carrying the individual might also be a Sunmoon. The humanoid individual stood loftily on the head of the hawk and overlooked the sea below. He noticed Su Yu as well, but he directly disregarded him after a single glance. From the presence of this person alone, he felt even stronger than Ming He.

When the hawk was about to fly over Su Yu, its claws shone, looking like it was above to dive down.

But its master berated, "Don't waste any time. It's only a stupid bull. How delicious can a bull be?"

The hawk shrieked yet again. Obeying its master, the hawk stopped descending and shot far ahead before vanishing in the distance. Yes. Initially, it intended to capture Su Yu as food.

But it gave up after its master berated it. As for Su Yu, beads of sweat started forming on his forehead. What the hell was happening?

From his estimation, that hawk was probably a third-stage Sunmoon. Meanwhile, the master was probably a seventh or eighth-stage Sunmoon. As the two had remained so far above him in the sky, not even his Perception Jade had managed to detect them.

Holy shit! Were super experts so common? Just what was going on? And why did he feel like all these super experts were heading in the same direction as him?

After thinking about it, Su Yu concluded that these people were probably not going to Red Clouds Island. Rather, they were probably heading to Ninestar Island which was in the same direction as well.

"Holy shit. This is so dangerous."

Su Yu was alarmed. Suddenly, his tribulation character pulsed madly. A high-stage Sunmoon! This was not an ancient city. There were no Sunmoon death spirits around. If an expert like that targeted him, he would have no way of escaping. So luck was the only thing he could rely on when traveling out here?

Was returning to the Human Realm better, after all? This was so dangerous. Also, none of these super experts were humans. Were the experts of other races so common out here? He started fleeing madly. Moments later, a burly individual appeared while stepping on the surface of the sea. When he saw the fleeing Su Yu, he laughed, "What a pity. The blood of the mountainbreak bull race is pretty good for body forging. Whatever. Count yourself lucky."

The burly individual was massive. But with the individual revealing himself, Su Yu had a sudden urge to curse. That burly guy was not someone from the giant race as he had originally guessed. Rather, that was a human.

He wouldn't miss the unique presence of humans. Holy shit. He was nearly caught by a fellow human. He didn't know the burly man. But clearly, that was a strong and arrogant Sunmoon.

The burly man continued stomping forward on the sea surface, creating massive waves around him. Shortly after, a dragon appeared in the sky. The dragon roared, "Qin Hao, what are you doing?"

The burly man was actually Qin Hao.

Qin Fang's uncle, Great Qin King's son, and Vanguard Regiment's general. This person had not appeared even when Qin Fang was trapped in the ancient city previously. But he had actually appeared at the Sea of Stars.

Qin Hao answered the call by stabbing his spear at the sky.

Boom!

When the explosion of light settled, a massive dragon could be seen flying away frantically. A bloody hole could be seen on the belly of the dragon.

Qin Hao raised his head. First, he gazed at the fleeing dragon. Then, he looked around coldly. His mouth curled into a smirk as he said, "I'm not doing anything. I merely heard that the heroes of the various realms are gathering at Ninestar Island. I'm merely heading there to join the fun in case you guys feel too lonely without me."

After saying that, he stabbed his spear into the sea. Instantly, the sea roiled. One demonic beast after another started fleeing madly.

With a casual stab of his spear, a massive golden fish was killed. A clump of flame appeared atop the spear and started roasting the fish. With a smile, he said, "Won't a gathering of heroes without the presence of humans boring? Everyone, I'll see you at Ninestar Island."

Then, he resumed his journey while enjoying his freshly roasted fish, stomping forward on the sea surface rapidly while creating numerous waves around him.

"Qin Hao!"

Su Yu was surprised. Was that fellow going to Ninestar Island as well? But why were so many people going there? What in the world was going on? That was also his destination. If so many Sunmoons were going there as well, why should he go?

Su Yu was left quite speechless. He cautiously looked around, wondering what was going on. Why was everyone going to Ninestar Island? Did some valuable treasure appear there? Was everyone going there for the treasure? Su Yu sank into thought. What treasure could it be? Should he go or change his plan?

A super expert like Qin Hao was going. The super expert standing atop the hawk earlier was probably going there as well. Even the dragon who had fled from Qin Hao was probably going to the same place.

"Did an incredible treasure really appear there?"

Su Yu had no answer. He could only decide after learning more. For now, he would first head to the Red Clouds Island and try to gather more information there. If he had to, he wouldn't mind changing his plan.

Of course, if he found the Sunmoons fighting among themselves chaotically, it wouldn't be a bad idea to take some risk and try to steal some benefits from them. This was actually a common way of thinking for many geniuses. As a young genius, a chaotic battle between experts would be the perfect opportunity for them to fish for some benefits.

If they ended up perishing, that could only mean that they were not genius enough And if they survived, the benefits would naturally be theirs to gain. It was pointless to be a genius if one lacked the courage to venture into the most chaotic and dangerous of places.

If the situation grew too dangerous, he could always find a nearby ancient city and hide inside. Perhaps he could even take this chance to get even more of his enemies killed.

"I need to kill Dao Cheng. The enmity between us can't be cleared. If I see any snowfrost divines, lightning divines, tri-eye devils, six-winged divines, silkwyrms, or mystic armors, I can't spare them either. If an opportunity presents itself, I won't spare any of them."

After listing a long string of targets to kill, Su Yu found that he had quite a lot of enemies. And this was already a list excluding the weaker races. The races he listed were the ones who had lost their experts and geniuses in the ancient city because of him. There was no wiping the enmity between him and these people. That was especially true for the six-winged divines. This was a race Su Yu greatly disliked.

"How annoying."

Su Yu started thinking of a suitable disguise. The best choice would be someone from a race with a small number of members that was powerful enough to be left alone by the other races.

"Someone from an ancient race will be perfect."

After thinking about it, this was Su Yu's conclusion. He had not met a lot of ancient race members. Apart from the little furball, the only ancient race member he had met was the iron devourer.

He was never told that the iron devourer race was an ancient race, but from his research, he was sure this was an ancient race. And this was a powerful race. Just look at the iron devourer in Great Ming. He was only a peak Mountainsea, but not even Sunmoons could harm him. How terrifying.

"Perhaps I can pretend to be an iron devourer. But are there a lot of them out there? Will there be any trouble if I disguise myself as one of them?"

If this was a race with numerous members, losing one or two of them would not be that big of an issue. People would be much less inclined to avoid a confrontation with him. But if this was a race with an incredibly small number of members, any new face would invite suspicion.

"No, wait, they can't be that rare. After all, there's one in the Human Realm. And now, we even have three little iron devourers. Maybe I can pretend to be the son of that fellow living in Great Ming?"

If an actual iron devourer started asking questions, he could claim that he was the son of that fellow in Great Ming. He could pretend to be an iron devourer that had been separated from his roots.

He continued moving while coming up with all sorts of ideas. He had yet to decide on a disguise. He would make his choice after reaching the Red Clouds Island.

***

A long time passed. After encountering Qin Hao, Su Yu did not encounter any other experts. Perhaps these experts were all avoiding the barbarian called Qin Hao so they had all opted to take a different route instead.

Or perhaps Su Yu was simply not encountering them since he had deviated from the direct route to Ninestar Island. His subsequent journey was smooth. Apart from some Mountainsea beasts, he did not encounter anyone else.

Fortunately, the demonic beasts here did not seem too aggressive. In fact, some of them were the ones distancing themselves from Su Yu right after noticing him. Some would also give chase aggressively, but Su Yu only needed to run for a short while before they gave up.

And finally, a red island appeared before him.

That was the Red Clouds Island.
