Tribulation of Myriad Races
Chapter 2099: Hundred Battle King Returns (2)
After several exchanges, Su Yu threw a palm strike with the powers of life and death. In Martial Emperor's vision, Su Yu was shrouded in interweaving black and white as the palm struck.
Instantly, half his body darkened while the other half whitened. His left side started rotting away, while his right side started bubbling with life. Before he could react, half his body had rotted away.
However, Su Yu was frowning as he said, "This isn't right. The powers of life and death should clash inside you before exploding. But now, the two are working separately. This is wrong."
Sure enough, he was too unfamiliar with the proper usage of his new dao. Meanwhile, Martial Emperor's dual-colored face turned extremely unsightly. He was furious. Su Yu was using him as a test subject.
He roared in fury and gathered even more dao power. Seeing that, Su Yu's eyes lit up with joy. "Sure enough, you still have strength to spare. I knew it! You have indeed recovered a decent amount of strength. You had merely been pretending to be weak before this."
"This is a good thing. I don't have to worry about accidentally killing you during my tests anymore."
Su Yu was greatly pleased. Martial Emperor was the perfect test subject. Since Martial Emperor could keep growing stronger, he could keep pushing the fight further without much worry.
"Life! Death!"
Su Yu continued focusing on the powers of life and death. He struck out with both palms, carrying one power in each. The roaring Martial Emperor faced the two palms with both his hammers.
This time, his attack was much stronger than before. With one strike, he scattered the powers of life and death.
However, that only caused Su Yu to grow even more excited. "Try my cosmic power!"
What was that?
Before Martial Emperor could push forth with his hammers, his entire reality twisted and spun. Then, he found himself appearing in the middle of a newly created world.
This was Su Yu's first time using this move. He smiled and said, "I'm not too familiar with this move as well, but this should be the projection of the world I created. Let's see if I can still control everything here."
"Die!"
Damn it! Was this bastard really using him as a test subject?
Dream on!
Martial Emperor attacked madly with his hammers.
Su Yu grinned and ordered, "Withdraw."
And then, space twisted. Martial Emperor, who was clearly charging toward Su Yu, found himself drifting farther away the longer he moved.
Su Yu's eyes lit up as he asked, "How does it feel?"
Martial Emperor raged, "Damn you! Your dao is weak! If I were fully unsealed, a puny dao like this could be crushed with a single strike of my hammer!"
That wasn't an empty boast. This dao was indeed too weak to face his full power. Alas, he was still sealed.
Su Yu chuckled. "There is no rush. I'll be prepared for you in the future as well."
He continued his test. "Time acceleration!"
He was playing around with acceleration as well.
After all, this was his world. If he declared that time could be accelerated, it would happen. Instantly, a wave of dao power blanketed Martial Emperor. Instantly, he started aging.
But shortly after, Martial Emperor shook his body, shaking off the dao power around him. "Face me head-on!"
Only cowards would fight through all these tricks!
"Strength prevails over everything!"
With a swing of his hammer, Martial Emperor shattered all the abilities Su Yu were using against him. Then, Martial Emperor's aura surged even more as he shot toward Su Yu again.
At this point, Su Yu's eyes were already gleaming with excitement. What a great target practice. What an awesome training partner!
"Strength is mine!"
With that declaration, a titanic strength rose within his body.
"Strengthened body!"
The power of the physical body dao came pouring in.
"Invulnerable, indestructible, impregnable."
Su Yu's body started shining.
Finally, he threw a normal punch. As the punch met the two hammers, a deafening rumble rang out as the hammers shattered. Su Yu was pushed back a step, but his eyes were shining even brighter than before.
Seeing that his hammers had been broken, Martial Emperor roared and sent a kick toward Su Yu. One ought to admit that he was indeed quite strong.
Boom!
As Su Yu was sent flying by the kick, he roared, "Immovable mountain!"
Instantly, he was rooted to the ground.
"Petrification!"
Instead of Martial Emperor, Su Yu started turning into stone.
"Countershock!"
A layer of countershock power appeared atop the stone body.
When Martial Emperor's kick arrived again, he was sent flying with a numb sensation on his leg. He gnashed his teeth and charged forth again before raining tens of thousands of punches down, cracking Su Yu's stone skin and shattering the dao power around him. By the time Martial Emperor was done, both his fists had been mangled badly.
Finally, he pulled back with an unsightly expression. "I dare you to stop defending yourself!"
The stone Su Yu opened his eyes and smiled. "No thanks. I'm testing out my defenses. Martial Emperor, you don't seem capable of fully getting through my defenses."
"Hmph!" Martial Emperor sneered, "I wasn't joking when I said that strength could prevail over everything. Your defenses only seem to work because I lack the dao power to deal with you in my current state."
"I guess you're right." Su Yu said, "In short, those without a higher level of cultivation won't be able to break through my defenses."
"Come on, Martial Emperor. Let's continue the test."
"Damn it!" With a curse, Martial Emperor started attacking his surroundings. He was attempting to leave.
Noticing that, Su Yu's expression changed. "Thinking of leaving? Come back, you old fuck!"
Martial Emperor ignored him.
Su Yu gnashed his teeth. Fleeing?
Dream on!
He would not allow this training partner to leave so easily!
"Sneer."
Yes. That was what Su Yu said.
But his word seemed magical. As the dao of sneer activated, Martial Emperor was triggered.
"Did you enjoy the beating you received from Tai Shan in the past? How does it feel to have flowers growing out of your ass?"
"..."
Well, those words alone were probably enough to trigger Martial Emperor without even using the dao of sneer.
There was no point.
Boom!
Instantly, Martial Emperor turned around and charged toward Su Yu. He decided that he wouldn't leave before killing Su Yu.
Once again, the battle erupted.
Su Yu took the chance to try the various dao powers he had. He didn't feel like bullying Martial Emperor's clone, but this felt too great for him to give up on. This was a perfect training partner for him.
"You're a pig!"
Su Yu roared as he used Soy Bun's dao on Martial Emperor.
"You are the pig! You come from a family of pigs!"
Martial Emperor threw a punch, pushing Su Yu back. With a frown, Su Yu muttered, "This dao is too weak right now."
"Patience!
The patience dao.
That was a powerful dao, but it only managed to stop Martial Emperor for a split second. Martial Emperor charged forward in fury again, but he stopped halfway and turned around. No, he was not doing this anymore. This was too annoying!
"Reverse."
And next, Martial Emperor cursed as he saw that he was somehow moving in Su Yu's direction again.
"Damn you! How dare you? Die! I'll kill you!"
He was losing his mind. This bastard was too annoying to fight. Since escaping was so difficult, he decided to kill Su Yu instead.
Boom!
Martial Emperor's aura rose again. This time, Su Yu could feel that Martial Emperor had reached the level of the chaos dragon. Clearly, he had removed a large part of his seal. Numerous daos were smashed apart with brute force before they could even do anything to Martial Emperor.
For someone strong enough, strength alone was indeed of breaking everything. No tricks or techniques would work against someone capable of punching everything apart. Naturally, when both combatants were similar in strength, the one with more tricks would be the one with the advantage.
"Seal."
"Chain."
"Charm."
"..."
Even more dao powers erupted.
"Cry."
"Wuwuwu---FUCK YOU!"
Martial Emperor was further infuriated when Su Yu forced him to cry for a short moment.
"Anger. Extreme anger."
As Martial Emperor resisted the numerous interferences, his eyes turned red from fury.
"Yes. Extreme fury. Lose your mind to fury."
As Su Yu chanted on and on, Martial Emperor felt like a swarm of flies were buzzing in his ears continuously. In his fury, he started attacking madly without even looking at what he was attacking anymore.
Su Yu continued evading while throwing countless tricks toward Martial Emperor. Inwardly, he wondered if he would break this clone of Martial Emperor with all these tricks. This...felt awesome!
The chaos dragon wouldn't be broken so easily, but this was merely a clone. It seemed way too vulnerable to the numerous dao interferences. But this was also great as it allowed Su Yu to freely test his numerous new powers.
He was in a great mood. The seemingly mad Martial Emperor continued approaching Su Yu, but deep inside his eyes, a tiny bit of clarity could be seen. Slowly, he approached Su Yu while maintaining his mad appearance.
He continued attacking blindly. It seemed as though he had lost his mind from his fury.
And finally, complete clarity returned to his eyes as he roared, "Go fuck yourself!"
Boom!
He threw a punch far exceeding all his previous attacks in strength. Even the world projection around Su Yu shattered from the might of the punch. With a rumble, it blasted Su Yu into pieces.
With that, the clone ran out of power and landed on the ground. While gasping for breath, Martial Emperor cursed, "Are you playing around with me? Do you think I'm really that stupid?"
Su Yu was underestimating him too much.
Up in the sky, a new Su Yu appeared. He was slightly pale, and blood was dripping down his lips. With a slight frown, he said, "Not bad at all. Fortunately, this isn't your real body or I would have been dead by now."
Martial Emperor sneered, "Real body? Do I even need my real body to face you? I have merely removed twenty percent of my seal. I only need thirty percent of my strength to kill you."
"Sure, sure. Keep bluffing." Su Yu laughed. "Do you really think thirty percent of your strength is enough against me?"
"Bluffing?" Martial Emperor couldn't even stand properly anymore, but he still sneered and said, "You're not weak. But you are merely at the critical point below the Master of Law stage. You are weaker than even the weakest Master of Law. Of course, you're probably as strong as some of those physical body human kings during the ancient past, but you are still far away from my level."
Su Yu frowned, but he soon nodded. "True. My current strength is similar to that chaos dragon. Strictly speaking, I'm similar to Hundred Battle King from six thousand years ago, that Ancestor from Control King's lineage, and Venerable Corona in strength."
He had paid close attention to all those people during his escape previously. He was probably similar to that Ancestor in strength or slightly weaker. However, the difference between them wouldn't be too big. They were both capable of fighting Venerables but were weaker than Masters of Laws.
"But so what? I have too many tricks at my disposal." Su Yu smiled. "Those at the same level won't be able to defeat me anyway."
Martial Emperor said nothing, but he cursed inwardly.
"Again!"
