Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 715: All Geniuses Love Games (1)

Great Ming.

Su Yu had received news of Hong Tan's breakthrough in the middle of a meal. While munching on his food, he exclaimed in surprise, "My grandteacher is out of seclusion?"

Wen Zhong, Jin Sheng, and the others were there as well.

Wen Zhong nodded, "I heard this from the prefect. When I went out this morning, I heard the prefect saying that both Hong Tan and Zhou Mingren are out of seclusion. They both entered the Sunmoon Realm at nearly the same time. Great Xia truly is filled with talented individuals. Just like that, they gained two additional Sunmoons. And Hong Tan is quite a young one."

He sounded envious as he spoke. Great Ming had a lot of veteran cultivators, but most of them weren't too strong. Meanwhile, the people in Great Xia had the tendency of dying young, but they had no choice but to admit that the youngsters of Great Xia were also very strong.

Yes. For people like Wen Zhong, Hong Tan was a youngster. Even Wan Tiansheng could be considered a youngster. Anyone around a hundred years old and younger was a youngster for the seniors of Great Ming.

Jin Sheng laughed, "There's no helping it. They are all fearless in battle while we spend most of our time in research. It wouldn't make any sense for people like us to be stronger than them in combat."

"That's not absolute. It also depends on talent and luck."

Su Yu laughed and changed the topic, "Senior Brothers, is there any progress on the aperture fusion art?"

"No."

After replying in a dispirited manner, they sank into silence.

After a moment, Wen Zhong recovered and said, "Be patient. Don't just focus on us. You should pay the Bai Family a visit. Your source soul acupoint has yet to be found. Perhaps this is not a matter of not opening enough acupoints and apertures. You have definitely opened more than Bai Tianhao. Why could he find the source soul acupoint while you couldn't?"

Su Yu nodded pensively. That was true. He had thought of visiting the Bai Family several times before this, but he would eventually be occupied by something else. It was about time he paid them a visit.

He had opened a lot of acupoints, but the source soul acupoint was still nowhere to be found. Just what was the issue? He would be free for a bit since he still didn't have any immortal blood essence. Should he take this chance to visit the Bai Family?

Bai Family...Bai Junsheng. It wouldn't be proper for him to visit out of nowhere. Should he have a chat with Bai Junsheng first?

At that thought, Su Yu took a mouthful of food before saying, "True. I'll visit them later in the afternoon. Visiting in the late afternoon does not break any etiquette in Great Ming, right?"

"Cultivators don't care that much about things like etiquette." Wen Zhong said, "Do you want me to go with you?"

"It's fine. I can go myself." Su Yu said, "I don't really know the Bai Family that well. Would it be rude of me to ask about their ancestor's secrets out of nowhere like this?"

Jin Sheng said, "That's easy to solve. The Bai Family is a warrior family. Bai Junsheng is the sole son of the first son of the family head. He has just entered the Skysoar Realm through physical cultivation. Since you have plenty of divine and devil blood essence, you can gift some of the blood essence to him. The Bai Family should be willing to show you the notes left behind by Bai Tianhao after that."

As Bai Junsheng was a fresh Skysoar, he needed some blood essence for his body forging. It was likely that he had yet to even finish his first forging. The family head of the Bai Family was Bai Feng's grandfather. He was a Mountainsea who was currently in seclusion. With him away, his first son, who was Bai Junsheng's father, and his second son, who was Bai Feng's father, would have a hard time getting some divine and devil blood essence.

Thus, divine and devil blood essence would be the perfect gift for them. Su Yu had given his leftover first divine and original devil blood essence to Xia Huyou, but he still had some other divine and devil blood essence left from the batch he received from Great Qin.

Having come up with a plan, Su Yu felt much more reassured.

As for Hong Tan, Su Yu wasn't too worried about him. No matter what, that was a Sunmoon, a multiple character faction Sunmoon. It was pointless to worry about this grandteacher. Furthermore, this grandteacher was a very patient man. He wouldn't do anything rash.

Su Yu also heard about the disassembly method, but he did not ask too much about it since he didn't want to get involved. The entire matter felt fishy. Back then, they had agreed to not rashly release the disassembly method. But now, they were making a big fuss out of it.

Of course, the masses still didn't know that much. They only knew that Hong Tan had grasped a crucial skill that could cause an evolution among all cultural researchers of humanity. And that had successfully caught the attention of numerous people. In a way, that was beneficial for Su Yu since there were now fewer eyes on him.

"Grandteacher can withstand the pressure himself. If he really can't, he can simply enter seclusion again."

Su Yu couldn't help but laugh in amusement when he thought about that. The only person he worried about now was Chen Yong.

A total of ten Sunmoons were in search of him, but he was still missing. Nobody knew what Chen Yong was doing. The search for Chen Yong was being carried out with great fanfare. Chen Yong could very easily learn about the search. He could totally borrow the strength of these people to kill those he wanted to kill.

Su Yu started preparing for his visit to the Bai Family. As for the matter concerning Chen Yong, that was something for his grandteacher to worry about now. He had already done all he could.

***

At the same time.

On a desert mountain in the eastern region of the Human Realm, near the Rising Sky Sea.

The three largest seas of the Human Realm were the Rising Sky Sea of the east, Falling Sky Sea of the west, and Limitless Sea of the south. All three of them were considered the danger zones of the Human Realm. Alongside the three was the Allheaven Prefecture of the north, a prefecture that was also considered as a danger zone of the Human Realm.

Inside a cave on the desert mountain.

Chen Yong was leaning against the wall while roasting a beast. Beside him was the pale Feng Ji whose chest was dyed red with blood. With a smile, he said, "Chen Yong, you're getting better and better at cooking. When you decide to stop cultivating, you can probably open a restaurant or something."

Chen Yong smiled and said nothing. When he was done roasting the beast, he tore the drumstick off and tossed it to Feng Ji before starting to eat himself. After a while, he softly asked, "Can you continue?"

"I won't die yet."

"Good." Chen Yong said, "After this meal, we'll go to the Rising Sky Sea."

Feng Ji nodded and asked nothing.

Chen Yong laughed and said, "You're still the same. Even after so many years, you still don't enjoy talking."

"I'm used to being silent." Feng Ji laughed, "Since you wish to talk, why don't you tell me what we're doing at the Rising Sky Sea."

"We're there to kill..." Chen Yong nonchalantly said, "...a few enemies."

Feng Ji nodded and asked nothing.

Chen Yong was forced to extend the conversation, "Do you know who we're killing?"

"No."

"Why do you nod so easily, then?"

"I only survived this until today because of you. My life is yours. I will kill anyone you want dead."

"..."

Chen Yong laughed and said, "Since I'm already out here, I don't intend to go back so quickly. It's very rare for me to leave the academy. This is a rare chance since there are still no eyes on me right now. Do you still remember Little Cap?"

"Yes. The balding fellow with a habit of wearing a cap. He was eventually kicked out of the multiple character faction by you, right?"

"Yeah." Chen Yong said, "Back then, I kicked them out in hope of preserving some seeds for the multiple character faction. But some people were unwilling to spare them even after being kicked out of the multiple character faction. Little Cap was here at the Rising Sky Sea to harvest some materials when he died. I had some people investigate this matter in secret. The death was no accident. He was schemed to death. In fact, most of the people I kicked out of the faction back then were already dead.

"The only reason my junior brother and I are alive is because we like to stay in the academy. Our teacher has been keeping an eye on us as well. Otherwise, we would have died. Too many multiple character faction experts had died over the years."

Feng Ji nodded, "Yeah. It might not be noticeable if you're not paying attention, but at a closer look, you will notice that too many multiple character faction experts had died."

"There's nothing we can do about the Allheaven Battlefield since the myriad races will target us. But even when our people conducted missions within the Human Realm, a lot had still perished. According to my investigation, the Rising Sky Sea was where most of them died."

After a short pause to take another bite at the roasted meat, Chen Yong said, "I suspect that this place is the lair of that person."

"The unknown person?"

"Yeah." Chen Yong nodded, "Thus, I am here to take revenge and kill some people. Let's see if that's enough to lure that person out of hiding. Even if that person remains hidden, we still need to make it obvious that we have caught on to the identity of that person. We will force them to make another move. Since they have been quite active recently, it is obvious they are cornered. They must be very worried about exposure. We will make use of that worry and force them to show themselves."
