Tribulation of Myriad Races-Chapter 1423: The Death Spirits Have Joined The Game (3)

Su Yu was surprised as well.

He had not expected this.

He was floating above everyone. Of the 120 humans gathered, only 38 had left. He could see everything. This was very surprising for him. He had been observing in silence as the myriad races pressured the humans to leave. He had expected more than half or even two-thirds of the humans to leave. But that did not happen.

Less than one-third had left. That was not all. Of the thirty-eight who had departed, a few had returned and laid in ambush nearby. They were clearly trying to stab the myriad races in the back when the battle began. Thus, only about a quarter of the humans had truly left.

Su Yu looked up at the sky and sank into contemplation. A quarter. Was that a big number? That was a decently big number. But it was much smaller than what he had expected. The multiple character faction had never been loved by humanity at large. Wan Tiansheng's slaughter had only served to further exacerbate the issue.

Su Yu could feel that some of the remaining humans were shivering with fear. That was understandable. It was normal for one to feel fear in the face of death.

Even Su Yu himself was not immune to that fear. However, they had still remained. That was a mark of courage.

"Humanity..." Su Yu muttered to himself.

Even as a human himself, he couldn't help but lament that humanity was truly too odd. The internal strife within the human race was so intense that he couldn't resist abandoning humanity altogether. The humans seemed incapable of not fighting among themselves.

But when threatened by an external enemy, many would step forth courageously, even knowing that they would die. Even those who had never liked Bai Feng would step forth out of a sense of obligation.

Even when a much safer alternative was offered, they had opted to remain.

Even when they were throwing insults and snorting at Bai Feng when he thanked them, they had remained.

Such was humanity.

"How complicated."

Su Yu couldn't help but admit that humanity was far harder to understand than the myriad races. This was not an alliance for the sake of reaping some benefits. There was nothing to be gained here. Many of them had remained only because they were still hot-blooded.

"This is too complicated..."

Su Yu laughed in a self-mocking manner. He was still too young, after all. At times, he would believe that he had seen through humanity. Alas, he had seen through nothing. He knew nothing. He had expected most of them to leave. But only a small number of them had left.

Why were they so odd?

"Time to leave!"

Worried that He Tu would arrive soon, Su Yu decided it was time to end this. According to his observations, he noted that there were several drops of Sunmoon blood essence or heaven weapons among the gathered myriad race experts.

Those would be his priority targets. There was no need to worry about the others. With his Mark of Civilization around, the solution was simple: kill them all.

After all, He Tu had graciously offered himself as the scapegoat.

Right as the myriad races began to stir, someone looked up upon sensing something. A small book could be seen floating above them.

"What's that?"

Someone muttered curiously. Was that a treasure?

After all, the Luminous Domain Mansion was filled with treasures. It wouldn't be weird for treasures to drop from the sky every now and then. That attracted the attention of more people. They all looked up at the floating book.

Everyone was convinced that the book was an incredible weapon. Shrouded in a layer of saintly radiance, the book felt like it was a part of the great dao itself.

Above the book, numerous faint silhouettes could be seen. It was as though the book was a record of the history and civilizations of the myriad races. Nobody felt any sense of danger from the book.

Why was that? Because Su Yu's tribulation sense was working to distort everyone's sense of danger. For him, this was merely a bunch of weaklings. There wasn't even a Sunmoon among them. How could they contend against him?

"Absolute treasure..."

He'ertai's eyes widened, convinced that the book was a heaven weapon.

The saintly aura the book emanated made it clear that it was no simple weapon. Greed covered their eyes. A heaven weapon was something nobody could reject.

Long Ji sent the others a voice transmission, "Kill the humans first before deciding who among us can have the weapon. Since the treasure has emerged, it won't run off."

He'ertai nodded in agreement as he roared his order, "Kill the humans first before fighting for the treasure."

A battle was on the verge of erupting. The various human experts braced themselves warily. However, Xia Huyou and Huang Teng had an odd look in their eyes. These fellows...must be tired of living.

Abruptly, numerous projections erupted from the floating book. One Sunmoon projection after another appeared. A hundred, two hundred, three hundred...

Su Yu's face paled slightly from the sheer expenditure of supporting this move. The book itself was powerful, but it also required his power to sustain.

"Fellow daoists, let us explore the meaning of civilization, the past and future, together."

When that voice rang out, nobody realized that danger was upon them. Then, the three hundred projections attacked.

Whoosh!

This was a match between three hundred Sunmoons and a bunch of Cloudbreaches and Mountainseas. How could they be a match? In the blink of an eye, more than nine-tenths of the myriad race experts were killed.

They were all consumed by the projections before they could even react. As for the survivors, they all activated their blood essence and heaven weapons in panic. Alas, they were too late. Done with the weaklings, the Sunmoon projections enjoyed an absolute numerical advantage.

Each survivor was faced with about ten Sunmoon projections. They were completely helpless.

"Roar!"

"Howl!"

The projections roared and howled joyfully.

Before long, nobody was left. They were gone. All three hundred myriad race experts had been wiped out instantly.

The humans were left stunned. Some of them paled and trembled. What...was this? Their brains were incapable of processing anything anymore. Fear was the only thing they could feel.

How terrifying.

Then, Su Yu reversed his source qi and floated down from the sky. With a frosty voice, he said, "The sovereign is upon us. He takes pity on the human race. By his grace, the humans here will be allowed to retreat. Take heed of these words. The Myriad Realms shall be ours."

Death spirit!

Fear and disbelief gripped everyone.

A death spirit?

A death spirit had appeared on the third level!

A sovereign was coming?

A voice rang out in Xia Huyou's mind. Hearing that, his expression changed drastically as he hurriedly shouted, "Thanks, Lord. Everyone, leave now! I told you guys! A danger is approaching from the second level. It will be here soon! Lord Sovereign He Tu is coming! Thank you for your assistance, Lord!"

Su Yu replied indifferently, "I used to be a human. This is all I can do. I do not dare to disobey the sovereign. Leave now."

The humans drew numerous conclusions from the short exchange between Xia Huyou and the death spirit. In short, this was a subordinate of Sovereign He Tu. He used to be a human before dying.

After regaining some of his memories, he had opted to help the humans this time. However, a death sovereign was coming. The death sovereign might not be as kind toward the humans.

Their expressions changed drastically as that realization hit them.

Run!

A death sovereign was coming!

In their eyes, Su Yu was a super expert who had killed so many experts instantly. As far as they were concerned, he was nearly as powerful as a death sovereign.

Qin Fang shouted at the others, "Retreat! Now! Go to the fourth level!"

Qin Fang was greatly alarmed. Why would there be a death sovereign here? This shouldn't be possible! Also, why was such a saintly book the weapon of a death spirit? This was unreal.

Su Yu said, "Leave. It is only a matter of time before we start our conquest of the Myriad Realms. At that time, humanity will be our enemy as well. I am no longer a human. I am now a death spirit. I will only show mercy once. This is the first and the last time I'm showing you mercy."

Even Qin Fang was touched upon hearing those words. He hurriedly offered his earnest gratitude, "Thanks, Lord!"

What a good guy! Even in death, he still remembered that he was a human.

He was about to leave when his gaze landed on Bai Feng's group. With a frown, he asked, "Why are you not leaving? What are you waiting for?"

Bai Feng didn't know what to say. Why should they leave? This was clearly a lie from Su Yu. But he couldn't say that.

Just then, Su Yu's voice rang out in his head, "Leave. A death sovereign is really coming. This isn't a lie!"

Instantly, Bai Feng paled. Was Su Yu being serious here? He stared at Su Yu in disbelief. Su Yu nearly rolled his eyes. He could see what his teacher was thinking. Did his teacher think that every word out of his mouth was a lie?

"I'm serious. Leave. Go as high as you can. He Tu isn't even alone. He has another death sovereign with him. I'll be fleeing soon as well."

Bai Feng stopped hesitating and grabbed Wu Jia and Wu Lan before fleeing. He did not even give them a chance to protest or react.

While she was being dragged away, Wu Lan sent a voice transmission to the death spirit in the sky, "Go up. Check the records left on the instruments. There is a treasure up in the sky..."

Those were the only words Wu Lan could send before she was dragged off. Su Yu looked down and noted the instruments on the ground. Clearly, she had left those instruments behind for him.

Before long, nobody was left around the waterfall.

News of He Tu's arrival started spreading.

A terrifying disaster was upon them.

A death sovereign was coming.
