Tribulation of Myriad Races

Su Yu opened the Mountainsea Peace Seeking Stratagem. There were a lot of characters in this book.

He spent some time admiring the writings on the book. He had to admit that his grandteacher\'s writings were really nice. At the very least, they were much better than Bai Feng\'s writings.

When he tried sending his willpower into the book, nothing happened.

The only thing he could feel was that these characters gave off a simple and heavy sensation, indicating that they were written by a Mountainsea expert. Apart from that, he didn\'t feel anything.

"Is there even a martial technique in this thing?"

Su Yu was worried. Even Hong Tan had not discovered anything after so many years. Thus, if there was really a martial technique here, then it was most definitely written by a Sunmoon or even an Eternal.

In any case, that expert would be much stronger than his grandteacher.

He took out a drop of silkwrym blood essence. After taking a deep breath, he dropped it onto the book. Immediately, his vision swam.

When he reopened his eyes again, he was no longer where he was. His surroundings were completely empty. Next, an individual appeared out of thin air in front of him. That was a tall and burly man. He looked to be around 40 or 50 years old. He had an empty look in his eyes, but when he saw Su Yu, life returned to his eyes.

"A human?"

Su Yu blanked out. What?

"Don\'t be surprised. I am merely a strand of willpower left here. Since you can reach this place, then it means that fate has brought us together. This technique has fallen in the hands of a non-human previously. Is that person dead?"

"No..."

"It doesn’t matter." The man did not say much. He looked at Su Yu and solemnly said, "This technique is known as Time."

Time?

Su Yu was still in a daze. Where was this? Was this a space within the willpower text? There was actually someone in here? Sure, there were people in all wilpower texts, but those people had never spoken to him before! And the one before him was actually capable of communicating with him!

"Time, a technique that could pursue the flow of time, break through the cycle of reincarnation, chase the stars, overtake the moon, reach the future with one step, and return to the past with the next step..."

Wow, that was...what a boast.

Su Yu was completely speechless. Just who was the creator of this technique? That was such a braggart!

"Peak middle-tier heaven-grade martial technique. 132 acupoints. Capable of crushing Mountainseas. Capable of suppressing Sunmoons."

Su Yu listened silently. Sure, sure, keep bragging. This fellow was an Invincible, of course he could crush Mountainseas and suppress Sunmoons. Alas, Su Yu wasn\'t an Invincible. So he wouldn\'t be able to do so.

This was a middle-tier heaven-grade martial technique. Yes, it was really very powerful. But the person cultivating it and the cultivation level of that person was also very important.

"There are only three levels to this technique. Each level requires 44 acupoints. The first level, Crushing Mountainsea. The second level, Suppressing Sunmoon. The third level, Battling Invincible."

"..."

Su Yu was stunned. Those names...were truly overbearing. But he was afraid that the moment he spoke those names, he would be beaten to death. He really wanted to roll his eyes at the creator of this technique.

He couldn\'t help but to recall what Liu Wenyan told him in the past. Some Invincible experts had serious eighth grade syndrome when they were young. Thus, they would give all sorts of names to the techniques they created.

For example, there was the Sky Sundering Countless Saber. And the naming sense of this person was just as bad as the creator of the Sky Sundering Countless Saber.

Su Yu was afraid that when he yelled the name of these moves when fighting, he would get himself beaten up by the nearby Mountainseas and Sunmoons when they overheard him.

"44 acupoints per level. With this technique, fighting above your level is not a problem. As a Great Strength cultivator, fight Infinite Strength cultivators. As an Infinite Strength cultivator, fight Skysoar cultivators."

"..."

The middle-aged man continued speaking while Su Yu listened silently. Eventually, the world around him changed again. Numerous dots of light appeared on the legs of the middle-aged man. Those were acupoints.

"First level, Crushing Mountainsea. After opening 44 acupoints in both legs, these acupoints can be linked into an independent system. This is a system that I have created after many years of research."

Once again, the middle-aged man started bragging. He was essentially talking about how strong this technique was, promising that with only the first level, one would have no trouble fighting above one\'s level.

And one only needed 44 acupoints to possess such prowess.

After comparing the acupoints with his existing acupoints, Su Yu was overjoyed. "Twenty of these acupoints overlapped with the War God Art!"

In other words, he only needed to open 24 acupoints for the first level.

As Su Yu listened, he suddenly felt dizzy. His willpower...had been fully drained. Next, his vision swam again. He then returned to where he was previously.

The Mountainsea Peace Seeking Stratagem had returned to its original appearance while the drop of blood essence used on it had been completely absorbed.

"This..."

Su Yu was just about to praise the technique when an intense headache erupted. He had drained too much of his willpower. And in his sea of willpower, his willpower was recovering and growing at the same time.

Su Yu blanked out.

Invincible!

This was a willpower text written by an Invincible! No wonder he had fully drained his willpower in such a short period of time. But despite the massive exhaustion, his willpower was recovering rapidly.

"This...is so powerful!"

Su Yu was overjoyed. He felt like this text was a better willpower trainer than even the fragment room.

Also...this was a willpower text! Su Yu thought of something else. This was a willpower text written by an Invincible. In that case, could he form a Divine Character from it?

"I probably can\'t do it now. The Divine Character formed from this text could probably defeat me all by itself."

Su Yu recalled how even two of his Divine Characters nearly failed to subdue a single kill character previously. In that case, what would happen if it was a character written by an Invincible? He even wondered if the character would be at the second tier the moment it formed.

"Time. First level, Crushing Mountainsea."

Su Yu exhaled. What a domineering name. However, he was definitely incapable of crushing Mountainseas.

"And I need a lot of willpower to study this technique."

A drop of Great Strength blood essence had not allowed him to study it for long. And silkwrym blood essence was definitely not cheap. In fact, it was very expensive.

"A human technique that can only be activated with silkwrym blood essence. Just how much does this person hate the silkwrym race? Has the creator of this technique been beaten up by the silkwrym race before?"

Su Yu had no choice but to suspect that.

At the same time.

Human Realm.

At the top of a certain towering building.

Two individuals were drinking tea while playing chess.

Suddenly, one of them looked toward the south and frowned, "Who activated my Time technique?"

"Huh?" The burly guy in front of him asked in astonishment, "I thought that technique was taken by an outsider a few years ago? If that\'s the case, why are you looking at the Human Realm?"

"It\'s in the Human Realm." The middle-aged man replied, "Is that fellow dead? Has the technique been snatched back by a human? My poor student. Finally, someone has avenged him."

The burly man laughed, "So? Do you want to take it back?"

"Forget it. Consider it my gift for avenging my student." The middle-aged man smiled, "I wonder who took it. I hope it\'s not a talentless person. That would be a stain to my reputation. But someone capable of killing an enemy from a different race is probably not weak. That person should probably be quite talented."

The middle-aged man\'s tone turned cold, "The Luminous Domain Mansion is going to be opened again soon. This time, I will send some people inside and butcher more people to soothe the soul of my student."

The burly man laughed, "Calm down. You\'re not young anymore. Your student was not strong enough. There is nothing you can do if he was killed because of that. Also, your Time technique is really not that special. But I can admit that it has an amazing name."

"Not that special?" The middle-aged man snorted, "I can send you back 100 years into the past with one kick. Do you want to give it a try?"

"Hehe. Sure, give it a try." The burly man had a look of disdain as he said, "If you can really send me 100 years into the past, I\'ll burn some incense to you and worship you like you\'re a god."

"..."

The middle-aged man ignored that remark and returned his focus to the game of chess. After a while, he said, "The Silkwrym King has been in hiding recently. When we have the chance, help me ambush that fellow..."

"It has been hundreds of years..." The burly man was speechless, "Are you still holding on to that grudge? You were only swallowed once. You didn\'t even lose anything from that experience..."

"Hmph!" The middle-aged man resentfully said, "He will pay for having the guts to swallow me!"

The burly man couldn\'t even be bothered to say anything in response.

How petty.

How many years had it been? Even the Silkwrym King was tired of this person. Any time this person showed himself, the Silkwrym King would withdraw. Yet this person had been very persistent.

Su Yu was naturally unaware of that short exchange. His willpower was recovering rapidly. A short while later, he opened his eyes, joy covering his face. His willpower seemed to have grown slightly. This felt similar to his experience when he first entered the fragment room.

"Invincible..."

He didn\'t know if the creator was an Invincible or a Sunmoon, but considering the name of the moves such as Suppressing Sunmoon and Battling Invincible, that person was most likely an Invincible.

"I only need 24 acupoints. I can give it a try. After all, I still have quite a lot of mountainbreak bull blood essence left."

Su Yu decided to enter the grotto once again and open all 24 acupoints of this technique inside. He aimed to finish cultivating the first level. It should be quite a strong move.

"Purchase silkwrym blood essence and five elemental race blood essence..."

Su Yu had the urge to enter seclusion immediately. He really wanted to see just how strong a heaven-grade martial technique was. He still lacked a truly strong offensive technique. Perhaps this technique would fulfill that role.

"All thanks to that suanni..."

Su Yu suddenly blanked out. He did a short calculation. He last fed them on the 22th. Since it was already past midnight, it should be the 1st of October today, right?

"It\'s not that bad. It has only been 10 days."

He exhaled in relief. Fortunately, he had remembered them. Otherwise, he would probably spend the next few days in the grotto and delay feeding them even more. And if he forgot about them after leaving seclusion, they would probably remain starved for half a month or even a month. It wouldn\'t be good if some of them ended up starved to death.

"The water guy is in the Cloudbreach Realm. That fellow\'s blood essence can be used to activate the water elemental\'s page in the book..."

Although he still couldn\'t do so for now, a day would come when he could. He could probably start activating Cloudbreach pages after reaching the Skysoar Realm.

A short while later, he arrived at the second underground floor.

The door swung open.

The creatures inside the room seemed to have gotten used to being starved. Indeed, the power of adaptability could also be very scary.

Just look at the suanni and the satisfied expression on his face.

After telling Su Yu about the technique, he had been given a few extra drops of source qi liquid. Thus, life had been good for him recently. He had completely forgotten that he was supposed to be fed a drop every three days. And he had only been given three drops previously. Thus, he had not really been given any extra food.

Alas...his new caretaker had a bad memory. And he had gotten used to being starved. Thus, even getting what he was supposed to get in the first place was already good enough for him. Just look at the other creatures. Look at how weak they were.
