In a different building, Qin Fang was shaking his head while staring at his index copy.
Su Yu...was in big trouble.
He had killed Final Armor and Jiu Xuan.
Even if the myriad realm Invincibles were being stopped from coming here, this was not the territory of the human race. His grandfather, Great Qin King, might not be able to stop every single Invincible from reaching this city. Furthermore, they were still inside an ancient city. Could Su Yu survive after killing so many death spirits?
A large number of myriad race Sunmoons were most likely on their way here. How long would the city remain shut? Could Su Yu survive this calamity? He might have killed Final Armor, but this was perhaps only the start of his trouble.
***
Everyone was thinking about Su Yu and Dao Cheng.
Meanwhile, Su Yu was too busy to care about all that. At the moment, he was shrouded in a thick layer of heavenearth profound light. The heavens had given him a surprisingly large amount of heavenearth profound light for killing Final Armor. His flesh was being rapidly strengthened.
Boom!
His nineteenth body forging was completed. After about an hour, yet another rumble rang out as he completed his twentieth body forging. Time continued passing. Outside, a suffocating silence continued enveloping the city.
Not a single sound could be heard. Nobody had the courage to leave their buildings. Nobody was willing to do something as stupid as going outdoors while ancient death spirits were around.
Su Yu cared not about all that. He was fully focused on his body forging. When the night was about to end, yet another rumble rang out. Shrouded in bright golden light, he completed his twenty-first body forging.
Only a small amount of heavenearth profound light remained.
Su Yu was regretful. Even if he kept pushing, he wouldn't be able to go further than twenty-two body forgings with the remaining heavenearth profound light.
In short, even the reward of killing Final Armor was only enough for four body forgings. Then again, one ought to note that his body forging required a lot more resources than a regular person. Anyone else would have been able to complete at least seven, eight, or even ten body forgings with the same amount of heavenearth profound light.
Furthermore, as Su Yu's body grew in strength, he would require even more resources to push his body forging further. Previously, he had assumed that he would only require about twenty portions of heavenly source qi per body forging. But reality proved that he had been too naive.
With his physical strength surpassing the level of ten thousand acupoints, completing another body forging with only twenty portions was nothing but a mere dream. Rather than twenty, he would probably need fifty portions.
And when morning arrived, yet another rumble rang out. The heavenearth profound light had been completely exhausted some time ago. He was forced to use a large amount of heavenly source qi before finally completing his twenty-second body forging.
His entire body shook, releasing powerful shockwaves that caused the entire building to shake as well. With twenty-two body forgings, his body had gained the strength of fifteen thousand acupoints.
A strength comparable to those in the Mountainsea Realm.
Strong.
That was the only sensation he felt from his body after the body forging session.
Of course, he was still not comparable to mid-stage Mountainseas. He was only slightly stronger than a regular first-stage Mountainsea. And there was still no comparing him and the Mountainseas from the major races such as the divines and devils.
Including his yang acupoint and the boost from his strength character, he could reach the strength of about twenty thousand acupoints.
Finally, he opened his eyes. A bright radiance erupted from his eyes, but moments later, his eyes returned to normal.
"Twenty-two body forgings!"
He was quite happy, but his emotions were quite complicated as well. The Allheaven Battlefield was indeed a good place for growth.
When he left Great Ming, he had just completed eight body forgings. Only about two months had passed yet he had reached twenty-two body forgings. Sure enough, leaving the Human Realm was the best choice if one wanted to grow rapidly.
In fact, it was the same for people like Qin Fang and Huang Teng as well. They were still relatively normal when they were in the Human Realm. But after entering the Allheaven Battlefield, they seemed to have grown massively, to the point their names were listed on the Heavenly Hunt Index.
In the past, Su Yu had thought that perhaps at a certain point in cultivation, one's speed would increase. But finally, he understood that he was wrong. Cultivating inside the Human Realm was simply much slower.
After taking a moment to savor his joy, a sense of melancholy hit him. What next? Kill Dao Cheng? The city had most certainly turned into a center of attention. A large number of experts might be arriving soon. Perhaps...it was time for him to leave. But could he even leave?
The city was currently sealed.
And Dao Cheng was still alive. An Mintian was still alive as well.
Since he had started killing, he might as well go all the way and kill more. That way, he would have nothing to regret in the future. Were those Sunmoon death spirits still out there?
Something felt different about those Sunmoon death spirits. These Sunmoon death spirits seemed to possess a tiny bit of intelligence. Previously, they had been staring straight at him after he killed Final Armor. That was not the reaction he would get from a regular death spirit.
As an existence that was similar to a divine character, neither source qi or death qi could pose a threat to him. But something even more powerful seemed to be outside the building. What should he do?
The little furball was starting to worry. He was not interested in dying. He wanted to seek help from Yummy, but he had no way of contacting Yummy. Left with no choice, he wrote to the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion.
"Help! Get Su Yu to save me! I'll pay!"
He did not use the name Yummy. Yummy did not seem to like that name. It wasn't like the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion would recognize that name anyway.
While asking for help from the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion, the little furball was also shouting in his mind: Help! Dada, help! Dada! Help! Gonna die soon!
***
At that exact moment.
Inside a certain ancient realm.
A massive furball was deep in thought under a gigantic heavenly source fruit tree. Suddenly, a tiny bubble appeared in front of him. The big furball opened his eyes. What was he thinking about earlier? Right, he was wondering if he should go to the Human Realm and pick up the little furball.
Suddenly, he blanked out. Huh? The little fellow was not in the Human Realm anymore? He looked at the scene in the bubble. Where was that? The big furball blinked. There seemed to be some death qi there...
"Holy city?"
What was the little fellow doing there? Which holy city was that? Was the little fellow asking for his help?
Holy city...there was something there...
The big furball kept thinking. His thoughts split out of his mind, creating more and more bubbles around him.
Once again, the big furball was roused from his thoughts. What was he thinking about earlier?
Right, holy city. The little fellow was in a holy city. That was so far away...
Abruptly, time started reversing around the big furball. It went on and on...
And stopped on a certain day.
The big furball appeared above a certain ancient city.
"Not this city..."
The big furball continued reversing time. The little furball wasn't here. He remembered that it was a city he had visited previously.
Time continued reversing. Soon, a different ancient city appeared before his eyes.
Heavendoom.
"It's this city, right?"
While muttering, the big furball flew into the bustling city and headed straight to the mayor's residence. A short while later, he entered the inner hall of the mayor's residence.
Stone statue.
The stone statue was there.
He opened his eyes and stared at the big furball. The big furball was staring at him as well.
After a momentary silence, the stone statue spoke, "Pseudo Emperor of the soul devourers, you have crossed time and space to arrive here. How may I help you?"
After thinking about it, the big furball said, "You're...whatever. All of you are the same. What do I need? Let me think..."
After spending a long time thinking, the big furball finally recalled his purpose. He said, "The little fellow from my family...will be here after a long time in the future. Then...something will try to kill him. Help him. I don't feel like leaving."
"Hmm?" The stone statue said, "You crossed time and space just to say this?"
"Yeah!"
The stone statue was left speechless. He shut his eyes and said nothing. Their surroundings shattered into pieces as time returned to normal.
