Tribulation of Myriad Races

Su Yu was completely unaware of the exchange that had occurred because of him. He did not know that moments ago, a conversation between realms had happened. Nobody except the two participants knew.

After completing his fifteenth body forging, Su Yu was not as worried about the pressure anymore. Good. This was the kind of pressure he needed. As long as the pressure wasn't enough to completely crush him, he would grow from it.

A mere gate dared to bully him? He lacked everything except patience and tenacity. It was just some pressure. Could it crush him to death? If it couldn't he would harness its power and grow from it. If it could actually crush him to death...he was not afraid of death. It wasn't like he had never experienced death before.

His mood was slowly improving. It hadn't been long since he left Great Ming, but he had completed seven body forgings since then. Excluding the three body forgings he had completed during his breakthrough, he had only completed five body forgings over three months in Great Ming.

He had left Great Ming on the 18th of May. It was only the 7th of July today. In less than fifty days, he had completed seven body forgings. An average of one forging per seven days.

Sure enough, one's cultivation speed would only increase after leaving the comfort of home. Outside, pressure and motivation could be found. And after seeing so many geniuses and experts, his horizons had broadened as well.

Bai Feng once said that one would see things differently when standing in different positions. He needed to compare himself against geniuses. He shouldn't lower his standards. He should look at bigger worlds, taller mountains, and wider seas.

Su Yu might feel that Bai Feng was now a weakling compared to him, but he had to admit that Bai Feng's words still made a lot of sense.

He continued onward, one step at a time.

Fifteenth step...eighteenth step...

Rumble!

Once again, his willpower grew. It pushed him straight to the second-stage Cloudbreach Realm, forcing him to quickly compress it again with his hammer. He refused to advance. Why was his willpower trying so hard to advance? His physical cultivation had yet to catch up. He didn't want to advance yet.

Rumble!

The hammer worked hard to compress his willpower. Coupled with the pressure of the gate, he dropped back to the first stage before long. He was in no rush to advance. He would only consider advancement after further increasing his physical cultivation.

It would be better for the gap between his willpower and body to be kept within a certain limit. For this challenge, the difficulty would skyrocket every nine steps.

At the twenty-seventh step, his face was already flushed red. He felt as though his spine was going to break into two soon. Ignoring the pain of his body, he utilized the Flesh Regrow technique of the immortals and constantly strengthened his body with heavenly source qi even as the pressure was damaging it. He refused to give up.

At the thirty-sixth step, a natural character took form.

Suppress.

A character of suppression and pressure. Finally, Su Yu had obtained a suppression-related character. A character that could suppress and pressure his opponents. Right after its formation, the character pulsed, greatly reducing the pressure on Su Yu.

Meanwhile, the little furball woke up with confusion inside the sea of willpower. For some reason, he seemed to have grown slightly stronger. How odd. Whatever. It was only normal that one would grow stronger through sleep.

***

While Su Yu was in the middle of his challenge, the second day arrived. The Mountainsea guard was still watching with an odd expression. Just what kind of person was this? Each time he thought that this human would reach his limit, the human would receive a new burst of strength.

He fell over and over, but he stood back up again and again. Over the span of one night, he had taken fifty-four steps, around half of the required steps. The Mountainsea guard had seen way too many geniuses. Some were able to go through the gate smoothly, such as Mo Duona. Some would have a difficult time and give up halfway. Some would give up after only a few steps.

But this human was clearly having an extremely hard time, but he was still unwilling to give up. Why?

Why? For strength. Su Yu found himself slowly falling in love with the gate. At the sixty-sixth step, he actually completed his sixteenth body forging. At this point, he was already a peak second-stage Skysoar in terms of physical cultivation.

He had surpassed the strength of eight thousand acupoints. Even without using any Mountainsea blood essence, Su Yu had a feeling he could surpass the strength of ten thousand acupoints with only his strength character and semi-opened yang acupoint.

During the challenge, he had even gained a new character. The stronger the pressure the gate was subjecting him to, the faster the suppress character was growing. In fact, his newly formed character had reached the second tier not long after it took form.

What a nice gate.

What a lovely gate.

As for the fact that Mo Duona had crossed it so easily, well, that was no longer Su Yu's business. He loved walking slowly. What about it? Thirty-six more steps to go!

With his new increase in strength, the pressure on him also grew. But he no longer cared. In fact, he was praying for the pressure to grow even stronger. As long as it couldn't kill him, he would outlast it.

The Flesh Regrow technique sure was useful. Alas, it was quite expensive to use. He had to use a large amount of heavenly source qi to keep it active. Not long ago, he still had nearly five hundred portions of heavenly source qi. But after completing two body forgings, he had around four hundred portions left.

This was too expensive. A hundred portions only for two body forgings. Previously, he had thought that a hundred portions would be enough for five body forgings. But due to the damage his body was suffering from the gate, he had no choice but to use even more heavenly source qi to repair his body.

"Go! Go! Thirty-six more steps!"

Su Yu gnashed his teeth with determination. He had completed two body forgings in one night. This was the biggest fortuitous encounter one could hope to obtain. He wouldn't give up on this. Even if he couldn't enter the city, it no longer mattered. Sure enough, the Allheaven Battlefield was filled with opportunities.

His willpower had also grown much stronger thanks to the challenge. He was still a first-stage Cloudbreach, but he felt like he could smash the sea of willpower of a regular third-stage Cloudbreach apart with one hammer strike. And he was referring to cultural researchers when he made that conclusion.

As for those at the fifth or sixth stages, he probably only needed three hammer strikes. The same applied to late-stage Cloudbreaches. He only needed more hammer strikes to deal with them.

In short, Su Yu felt like even without using Mountainsea blood essence, he was already as strong as how he was when he killed Lei Jue. He could clearly feel his growth in strength.

Sixty-sixth step, seventieth step...

Generally, the ancient city was not the busiest of places. Furthermore, Su Yu had already stepped into the massive gate. Thus, not many people noticed him. Even the few that noticed him did not pay him much attention. After all, the challenge looked incredibly difficult for him. Anyone would believe that he was on the verge of failing.

Eventually, Su Yu reached the ninetieth step. The Mountainsea guard exclaimed with admiration. For some reason, this human felt even scarier than Mo Duona. He had nothing to say about the talent or the strength of this human.

But that tenacity was incredibly shocking to behold. The tenacity and determination to stand up again and again after falling. It no longer mattered if this was Su Yu. It truly didn't. This was no longer the type of person he wished to provoke. This was a terrifying individual.

A lot of geniuses had challenged this gate before. On average, there would be three to five challengers. Over the years, countless geniuses had challenged the gate. But not one of them had shocked the Mountainsea guard so much.

He had been raising his evaluation of that human again and again.

Ten steps, twenty steps, thirty steps...

By the time Su Yu reached the ninetieth step, the Mountainsea guard no longer tried to predict Su Yu's limits. He only knew that this was an extremely dangerous individual who should never be provoked.

***

Once again, night arrived.

A day and a night had passed.

After taking the final step, Su Yu collapsed weakly on the ground. A puddle of sweat formed under his body. Meanwhile, his body was showing traces of completing its seventeenth forging.

Mo Duona had been able to turn around and talk after the challenge. Meanwhile, Su Yu was unable to do anything after the challenge. The gap between them was clear for all to see.

Even so, the Mountainsea guard, who was previously completely indifferent to this human, still walked over and offered, "Do you need help?"

"No."

The guard nodded and stepped back. He watched on as Su Yu stood up with great difficulty. Suddenly, he said, "If you're looking for a place to stay, know that not all buildings are the same. Since you're a human, find a human building. There are different types of buildings in this city. You will know when you're looking at a human building."

Su Yu was surprised to receive the unsolicited advice. Was this a trap?

The guard said, "You can believe what you want. One more thing. Don't approach the mayor's residence. The mayor dislikes humans. You have Xia Longwu to thank for that."

Su Yu nodded understandingly, "Thanks."

The guard then walked away silently.

Looking at Su Yu who was walking deeper into the city with unsteady steps, he couldn't help but gasp with admiration. Yet another powerhouse was going to rise.
