Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 768: Departure (2)



Chapter 768: Departure (2)

Su Yu blanked out. Crops? What was this little fellow talking about?

Wu Lan snorted with an unsightly expression and said, "This fellow has gone mad. He has been claiming that all our characters are his crops. Do you understand now?"

Su Yu frowned and looked at the little furball. Noticing what was happening, the little furball hurriedly hid behind Wu Lan's head in fear while stealthily looking at Su Yu through the gap between her hair. He had not included Su Yu in his list of farms!

Su Yu expressionlessly said, "Furball, remember this. Only the crop I give you belongs to you. Otherwise, none of them belong to you. Do you understand me?"

This little fellow was still too young. Wu Lan thought that the little furball was joking, but that wasn't the case. The little furball truly viewed their characters as food. And if one day he believed that these crops were ready for harvest, he would not hesitate.

Su Yu had to train the little furball well and make it very clear that there were things where the furball had to absolutely obey him. The little furball looked at Su Yu, not daring to make any noise.

Su Yu said, "Remember this. This applies to characters, willpower, and seas of willpower. You can only eat what I allow you to eat. You can only enter the seas of willpower I allow you to enter. If you dare to enter seas of willpower without permission in the future...well, let's just say that I believe a destroyed furball can be quite yummy as well."

"Yi yi ya ya..."

The little furball suddenly started speaking in his native tongue. From the tone of his voice, he sounded rather wronged. He knew that very well. He could sense that although he could eat Su Yu's characters, Su Yu was also capable of eating him. Yes. That was what his instincts were telling him.

Su Yu was capable of directly absorbing a destroyed character. He had personally witnessed that. Others could only use the willpower and character intent of a destroyed character to nourish their characters. But Su Yu could directly absorb the willpower and character intent. There was a difference between the two.

The little furball was quite afraid. In his mind, Yummy was capable of eating him as well.

"Okay. I understand."

The little furball answered obediently. The others smiled, but none of them said anything. This was Su Yu's pet. No, this was no pet. This fellow was actually very scary. And he would be even scarier if Su Yu couldn't keep him under control. This fellow would absolutely create a disaster if left unchecked.

Without experts capable of suppressing this fellow, he would be able to consume the characters of every single cultural researcher below the Mountainsea Realm of a city within a single day. That was a terrifying prospect.

Without their characters, cultural researchers would lose their combat strength, their character abilities, and their abilities to refine pills, forge weapons, craft talismans, and tame beasts. That would create a massive chaos. They had not mentioned it before, but they were actually somewhat scared of this little fellow.

When Wen Zhong said that they had played with him, that wasn't exactly accurate. To be precise, they were studying him for a way to counter this race. If this was a big race, it would be an extremely terrifying race. Thus, it would be better for them to learn more about this race in advance.

Su Yu said, "Eat a few of Senior Brother Jin's human characters. You're not allowed to eat more. Do you understand?"

"Ok!"

The moment the little furball heard that, he grew excited. His previous pitiful appearance vanished, replaced by an eager expression. He had almost fully digested the Sunmoon character intent he had eaten not long ago. It had been some time since he last ate something and he was starting to get hungry. He personally believed that he was living a pitiful life of starvation.

Jin Sheng had a look of melancholy as he said, "I really can't bear to part with them. Sigh. I spent so many years forming them. On average, I need ten years to form one. And it also isn't easy to grow them to the second tier..."

But right after saying that, his face stiffened.

Holy shit!

What the fuck? Where were his human characters?

Immediately after, his sea of willpower started roiling. Without the human characters, his myriad race characters seemed to have been liberated. One after another, they lit up. His entire sea of willpower turned violent as the characters shone brightly.

Everyone else stared at him in stupefaction. At this moment, the little furball had reappeared outside. As a Cloudbreach, he had no problem eating the characters of a Skysoar. It was too easy. He had instantly devoured six of Jin Sheng's characters.

With a confused look in his eyes, Jin Sheng's characters started shaking. Previously, his characters repelled each other greatly, resulting in his inability to break through. But now, the repelling force of the human characters had vanished, reducing the repelling force by about ninety percent.

Even his divine and devil characters were not emitting that much repelling force. In the blink of an eye, his life force erupted. His willpower also swept out. Su Yu hurriedly released a burst of willpower to protect Wu Lan. There was no need for him to worry about everyone else.

Jin Sheng shone brightly as one character after another flickered around him. His willpower and apertures had reached a sufficient level for advancement. He had only been held back by his characters. But now, his characters started progressing into the third tier.

In the blink of an eye, golden light erupted from his turbid eyes. His skin also started improving, as though his entire person had turned younger. In less than ten minutes, he reopened his eyes. His aura had reached the level of a Cloudbreach.

He looked at the others and blankly said, "I didn't feel anything at all. This little fellow is too scary."

It was too terrifying. He was still in the middle of a conversation when his characters vanished. Six of them were gone! How was any Skysoar supposed to contend against Su Yu?

No cultural researcher stood a chance against Su Yu. That little fellow was probably capable of eating the characters of early Cloudbreaches as well. But it would probably be somewhat difficult for him to eat the characters of middle and late-stage Cloudbreaches.

Generally, the main character of a cultural researcher would be at the same level as their cultivation. The other characters would be weaker. Thus, a ninth-stage Cloudbreach with ten characters would probably only have a single third-tier character with the rest left at the first or second tiers.

This little furbal would be a terrifying opponent for these people. Realizing that, their fear of the little furball deepened. Could Su Yu really keep this little fellow under control?

Su Yu himself wasn't confident he could fully control the little furball. He was only sure that the little furball couldn't do anything to him thanks to his golden book. But he could hardly do anything to the little furball. Sure, the Soul Expanding Hammer worked, but his cultivation level must be higher.

Thus, he should avoid letting the little furball surpass him in cultivation. Or at the very least, the furball couldn't surpass him by that much. It wouldn't be a good thing if he was still a Skysoar while the furball was already a Mountainsea.

He tossed that thought to the back of his mind and smiled, "Congratulations, Senior Brother Jin."

He was now a Cloudbreach. Not a single phenomenon had appeared. Clearly, Jin Sheng wasn't talented enough to manifest a phenomenon. But he had still advanced instantly relying only on his own source qi and willpower instead of pulling from his surroundings. That was proof of how solid his foundation was.

After all, he had been stuck for so many years because of his characters. He had progressed considerably in all other aspects. With his issue solved, he was able to instantly break through.

After recovering from his joy, Jin Sheng said, "The repelling force of human characters is quite strong. No, it is very strong. I also have some divine, devil, and immortal characters. But their repelling force combined is weaker than the repelling force of the human characters."

Jin Sheng spoke in excitement, "In that case, some of the veteran Mountainseas can probably advance straight into the Sunmoon Realm after removing their human characters. Of course, they also need to meet the other requirements for advancement."

Wen Zhong sighed, "As humans, we have to avoid cultivating human characters. Is this really a good thing for us?"

It was quite sad. Why could humans not cultivate human characters?

Jin Sheng said, "Unless they focus exclusively on human characters. Perhaps this is an entirely different path..."

Wen Zhong said, "Over three hundred years ago, humanity did the same. Nobody cultivated human characters. As a result, we still don't have even one cultural researcher Invincible today. I suspect that only human characters can help a human cultural researcher become an Invincible. If that's the case, can Zhou Polong even succeed?"

This was Wen Zhong's conclusion from this little test and all his gathered information. Perhaps advancement was only possible for those exclusively cultivating human characters.

Jin Sheng helplessly said, "I don't know. It's not like everyone has the talent to become an Invincible. For most people, they are happy with the Sunmoon Realm. Who will worry about what comes next?"

"True." Wen Zhong nodded. That was right.

Even if cultivating non-human characters might completely block one's advancement, that would only be applicable to Invincibles. But one would have a higher chance of becoming a Sunmoon if one cultivated only non-human characters.

"Senior Sister Kong, do you want to give this a try as well?"

Su Yu smiled and asked the others. Were they interested in trying? From that little test, he could confirm one thing: Jin Sheng was not Lan Tian. He still wasn't too sure about the others.

Should he take this chance to verify all their identities? Deep inside, he was still quite worried. Was Lan Tian hiding near him? Previously, it was Zhao Ming. Could it be one of these old-timers this time? The closest people to Su Yu in Great Ming were the people here.

Wu Lan was cleared because the little furball could freely enter her sea of willpower like his personal farm. But that wasn't the case for the others.

Cao Hui said, "Forget about me. I'm only a seventh-stage Skysoar. I'll consider it again after opening a few apertures and reaching the ninth stage. I still can't bear to part with my characters for now."

"Same here." Wei Qi said, "I'm also a seventh-stage Skysoar. Yuxian is already at the eighth stage, though. Do you want to try, Yuxian?"

Kong Yuxian said, "No thanks. I still need my human characters for my willpower extraction projects. How am I supposed to proceed without those characters? Junior Brother Su, just help us when we're really about to die. Since we know you can help, we don't have to be so afraid anymore."

"..."

Jin Sheng looked at the speechlessly. "Am I the only one to do this? You guys are being too excessive!"

"Don't complain when you've benefited so much. You're now a Cloudbreach. And you still have so many characters left. Why do you even care about those characters?"

Su Yu had nothing to say. What could he do if they were unwilling? Was he supposed to force them?

Su Yu did not order the furball to forcefully enter their seas of willpower. Even if one of them was Lan Tian, the rest were innocent. There was no need to do something so drastic. Furthermore, it wasn't like they could do anything to Lan Tian if he really did show himself.

They couldn't even defeat him. Doing that would only create more unnecessary troubles. With Jin Sheng's successful advancement, they were all in a great mood. The dinner lasted until late at night.
