Chapter 968: Eternal Grudge (3)

Su Yu's gaze landed on a dot of light hovering in the sky. He said, "Senior, please come here..."

That was the Sunmoon who had lost his body. He was greatly weakened, and he was barely maintaining a humanoid form through his willpower.

"Me?"

"Yes."

The member of the Shadow Guard said nothing and flew over. As for Su Yu, he took out a drop of blood and dripped it on the dot of light before proceeding to construct a new body. In the blink of an eye, a body appeared. It was very weak.

It only had the strength of the Great Strength Realm. In a place like this, that was terrifyingly weak.

Su Yu asked, "Senior, do you know the Source Soul Acupoint Opening Art?"

"Yeah." The expert replied instinctively.

Su Yu said, "Activate the art and start opening acupoints."

The expert was quite surprised, but he said nothing and did as told. As for Su Yu, he took out a large clump of heavenly source qi and wrapped it around the expert.

"Senior, I'll teach you the 36-Forged Heavenly Dipper Art. You can use it to reforge your body. As for your acupoints, heavenly source qi is the best supplement for opening more acupoints."

The expert didn't know what to say. He hurriedly started the body forging process. The heavenly source qi given by Su Yu felt different from the regular ambient heavenly source qi. It was mild and gentle, greatly similar to the heavenly source qi one would get from consuming heavenly source fruits.

One portion of heavenly source qi was consumed, followed by two portions, three portions, four portions...

In the blink of an eye, more than ten portions were used.

The drain was so massive even the expert was alarmed. He said, "This is enough. I can slowly cultivate when I'm back at the Human Realm."

Not even Great Ming could take out so many heavenly source fruits at once after many years of accumulation. Meanwhile, he had exhausted more than ten portions in the blink of an eye to open only sixty acupoints.

If he wanted to complete his acupoint opening process, he needed at least ten more portions. But Su Yu ignored the expert and took out even more heavenly source qi. Since he had already decided to help, would he care about a tiny bit of heavenly source qi?

How long would this person take to reach his previous height without his help? He did not like to owe anyone anything. Thus, he continued supplying the expert with heavenly source qi.

The expert didn't know what to do. He could only continue with it. After consuming about thirty portions of heavenly source qi, his entire body shook. He had finally opened all the acupoints outlined by the Source Soul Acupoint Opening Art.

This was so fast it was unbelievable. And the price for that? Around thirty heavenly source fruits. Just for a ninth-stage Great Strength cultivation.

"Continue. Open the acupoints of the Double Wu Acupoint Fusion Art."

"No, no, this is enough. Really..."

"Listen to me." Su Yu roared, "Stop wasting time. That guy will die soon. Your physical body is still too weak. How are you supposed to run later? A Sunmoon can carry you and run, but your body is too weak to even withstand the kind of speed a Sunmoon is capable of."

Helpless, the expert could only continue opening acupoints.

Double Wu Acupoint Fusion Art.

Su Yu continued supplying the expert with a large amount of heavenly source qi. And in the blink of an eye, about seven or eight portions were consumed to open all the acupoints of the Double Wu Acupoint Fusion Art.

The expert's heart ached at the thought of wasting heavenly source qi for something like this. Su Yu should have handed him the heavenly source qi instead. He could return and slowly cultivate instead of wasting so much heavenly source qi here. How wasteful!

But Su Yu didn't even give the expert a chance to speak. He continued forcing the expert to cultivate.

Acupoint opening.

Acupoint fusion.

With both arts fully cultivated, it wouldn't take this expert long to enter the Infinite Strength Realm. With his experience as an ex-Sunmoon and the strength of his sea of willpower, he would be able to return to his previous height in no time.

After helping the expert open a few more acupoints, Su Yu took out a storage ring and handed it over.

"You can find the 36-Forged Heavenly Dipper Art in it. You can also choose to open more acupoints and cultivate some top-tier heaven-grade arts. There are a few such arts in it. There are also a hundred heavenly source fruits in it. I wish you luck in rebuilding your body to the Sunmoon Realm yet again."

The expert stared blankly, not knowing what he could even say.

What?

A hundred?

Did this kid rob the heavenly source fruit trees of the immortals, divines, and devils?

At that moment, yet another moon fell with a rumble.

Ye Hongyan hurriedly put the corpse away and yelled, "What are you waiting for? Run! Hurry up!"

Umbra flew over. First, he shot Su Yu a glance. Then, he looked at the injured Sunmoon. Instantly, he was stunned. "Sixth, you...reached the Infinite Strength Realm?"

He was too busy fighting previously to pay attention to what was happening here. Didn't this person lose his body earlier? How was he at the Infinite Strength Realm already? Was his body fine, after all? But if his body was fine, he wouldn't be at the mere Infinite Strength Realm. What was going on?

Mo He was dead. They had to run as Invincibles might start appearing soon.

Su Yu wasted no time and said, "Seniors, please leave. I'm leaving as well."

"Hmm?" Umbra hurriedly asked, "Are you not coming with us?"

***

After the departure of Su Yu and others, a few more Sunmoons perished in the ancient city.

All in all, twenty-one Sunmoons had arrived, with six of them being high-stage Sunmoons.

Fourteen of them had perished. Only seven Sunmoons were left alive in the city.

The four high-stage Sunmoons were still alive. But three of them were in imminent danger. Ming He, in particular, was in very bad shape. Even her mind was starting to grow hazy. Su Yu had dealt her a heavy blow with two Sunmoon characters as the price.

A single incident had taken the lives of fourteen Sunmoons.

At the moment, the Sunmoons were gathered within a single building. Outside the building, over thirty Sunmoon death spirits were madly attacking. The area was flooded in so much death qi not even the high-stage Sunmoons could avoid their bodies from rotting away.

Desperation.

Despair.

Ming He, Long Dou, and the others felt nothing but despair.

This was supposed to be an easy mission, but the two wastrels of the multiple character faction had actually destroyed Ye Batian's characters to kill Sunmoons and flood the city with Sunmoon death spirits.

At this point, not even Invincibles could guarantee their survival anymore.

"SU YU!"

Every single one of them would yell out that name with boundless hatred before dying.

Su Yu, the hateful bastard! That bastard was even more murderous than Ye Batian and Xia Longwu. To kill them, he had actually destroyed Ye Batian's characters. Those were the characters that could push their owner to the Invincible Realm!

Nobody else would be willing to do something like that. Killing them wasn't even the only option Su Yu could take. He could have escaped silently. In fact, they suspected that he had already left earlier before returning to generate this mess for them.

Liu Wenyan's appearance was the proof of that.

In truth, Su Yu had left the city earlier. During his absence, he visited Liu Wenyan to get his hands on Ye Batian's characters. Just how much did he need to hate them to do something like that?

Long Dou and the others couldn't understand that decision. He had successfully escaped. Why return? Was such a big price to kill them really worth it?

Ming He was still coughing blood continuously. At this point, her blood had turned completely black.

With a mournful tone, she said, "Su Yu must die! He is more ruthless than Xia Longwu. He is also much more talented. If he survives, his ascension to the Eternal Realm will be the beginning of the calamity of the myriad races."

This was the tribulation of the myriad races.

That human was too murderous, to the point even Ming He was fearful of him. He could escape, but instead, he had opted to destroy two of Ye Batian's characters just to deal her a serious injury. He even took the risk of delaying his escape for a slight moment just to swing his blade at her one last time. If someone so ruthless was allowed to survive, disaster would fall upon them.

When she met Su Yu's gaze, she only saw coldness and hatred. Nothing else. Those were the sole emotions he harbored toward them. That human must die!

After coughing yet another mouthful of black blood, Ming He started regretting her actions. She...would not be able to survive this. Su Yu was too crazy. Two Sunmoon characters just to injure her. Was that worth it?

She turned to face Dao Cheng, who was also seriously injured. Clenching her teeth, she sent a voice transmission, "I can't last much longer. When the time comes, kill me. Avenge me. Kill that human!"

Intense emotions undulated from Dao Cheng's eyes.

"Kill me!" Ming He continued speaking through voice transmission, "Dao Cheng, you must kill him. If he doesn't die, you will die in his hands. I can only see oceans of blood and mountains of corpses in his future...Kill me! Strengthen yourself! For me, for Jiu Xuan...avenge us!"

After saying that, she started coughing blood again, filling the ground with black blood.

Grief welled in Dao Cheng's eyes. This was Ming He. A seventh-stage Sunmoon. She could be considered half his teacher. His grandfather would often be too busy to teach him, so instead, this disciple of his grandfather, Ming He, would take on the task of teaching him instead. But now, she was telling him to kill her with his own hands.

"Teacher..."

He did not feel anything when killing Silver Armor. But Ming He was different. He didn't want to do this. Despair seeped in.

Ming He shouted through voice transmission, "Hurry up! The stronger I am when you kill me, the bigger the reward will be. Without this reward, how can you compete against the others? You are incomparable to Mo Duona. You are incomparable to Zhan Wushuang. You are incomparable to Xuan Wuji. You are incomparable to Su Yu. Without killing me, you will never be able to avenge us."

Clenching his teeth, Dao Cheng threw a punch at Ming He's head, cracking the head apart.

Punch after punch was thrown. The people around them were completely stunned. As for Dao Cheng, he continued punching, staining his fist and body with blood as madness crept into his eyes.

Ming He did not resist. She took all the punches, allowing Dao Cheng to end her life.

Rumble!

Finally, a massive moon fell from the sky.

"Ahhhhhhh!"

A boundlessly mournful roar filled the city.

With Ming He's corpse in his arms, he roared. He had killed his teacher with his own hands.

"SU YU!"

Su Yu! The killer of his beloved! The culprit who had forced him to kill his teacher with his own hands! This grudge would stay for eternity!

Ming He of the immortals had perished.
