Chapter 885: Swaggering Into The Earth Index (2)

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Su Yu completely ignored Lei Jue as he attacked the group.

The little furball attacked as well, creating an opening for Su Yu to cut a massive demonic beast into two. After collecting the corpse, he heard the peng yelling, "If we keep running, all of us will die. Keep him busy! Lei Jue is coming!"

They were all decisive individuals. Right after those words were said, they stopped fleeing and charged toward Su Yu. One of them appeared below Su Yu with a flicker and stabbed at him with his sword.

The peng flapped his wings and chopped toward Su Yu. The others also unleashed their own attacks. One of them even used a character, but that character had disappeared right after appearing...

The white sable was stunned. Where was his character? Why was it gone? He was completely stunned. Even if he knew that this would be fatal during combat, he still couldn't help himself. What was he supposed to do without his character?

Fortunately for him, he no longer needed to rack his brain for an answer. A large hammer descended loudly. His body remained fine, but his sea of willpower was completely obliterated. Eternal darkness arrived.

Only four remained. In the blink of an eye, Su Yu had killed half the group off. With a casual stomp of his foot, he evoked the power of the Time technique. Crushing Mountainsea, Suppressing Sunmoon, and Battling Invincible.

Against this expert from a minor race, the Time technique was especially effective. Time and space were thrown into disorder. The slow character was also working alongside the technique. The sword was right beneath Su Yu, but for some reason, it couldn't reach him. The wielder of the sword continued flying toward Su Yu, but he was unable to actually approach Su Yu.

"Sky Sundering!"

A roar, a flash, followed by a severed head in the sky. Blood splattered all over Su Yu's body, but he remained completely indifferent. He had an exceptionally cold expression on his face.

At that moment, his killing intent surged with great intensity.

At that moment, his kill character reached the fourth tier.

His fifth fourth-tier character had finally appeared!

The peng and the two remaining survivors no longer dared to fight him. How was this a weaponsmith? This was a butcher! They couldn't understand. Why was this Cui Lang so murderous? His killing intent was too strong.

It was as though he had walked out of mountains of corpses. They were certain that he absolutely surpassed everyone in the valley in terms of killing intent alone. It felt as though he had taken tens of thousands of lives before. He was surrounded by thick killing intent, grievance, anger, and a tiny bit of death qi.

Su Yu was showing no quarter. He used all his strength as he engaged in slaughter, killing five experts in the blink of an eye. The heavenly reward he received earlier was directly slapped aside with disdain. He did not need something like heavenly source qi.

With the new kill, he triggered yet another heavenly reward. A golden beam of light descended from the sky. After shooting it a glance, he allowed the golden light to cover his body. Instantly, all his pores opened wide.

The golden light was tempering his body. His blood coursed through his vessels with great momentum as the air around him rumbled. The flow of his blood was so powerful that even the very air around him was shaking.

Body forging!

He was on the cusp of completing his fourteenth body forging. This golden beam seemed to specialize in body tempering. It was not heavenly source qi, and Su Yu couldn't identify what it was. But it didn't matter. After absorbing the golden light into his body, he transformed into wind.

In a flash, the gust of wind cut through one of the fleeing individuals and destroyed the body. At the same time, the little furball shot into the sea of willpower of that individual and destroyed it with a few bites.

One should not forget that the little furball was a member of an ancient race. All ancient races were known for their strength. Sure, he was not in the Heavenly Hunt Index. But that was because the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion had not gathered his aura. Since he had been spending his time inside Su Yu's sea of willpower, the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion had no opportunity to do that. Otherwise, he would have entered the index after so many kills.

Once again, a cloud appeared above them. This was the heavenly reward for the little furball.

Even without entering the index, he was still entitled to the heavenly rewards of the Allheaven Battlefield. And the reward was actually willpower! Su Yu instantly absorbed everything and said, "I'll pay you later."

"NO!!"

The little furball yelled pitifully. That was his! That was his reward! He could feel it clearly!

Normally, heavenly rewards couldn't be stolen so easily. But the little furball was a unique existence that was almost one with Su Yu. After all, he had been existing as Su Yu's character. Thus, the heavenly reward did not reject Su Yu's absorption.

The little furball was bursting with rage! That was his food!

Su Yu did not have the luxury to care. He was in urgent need of willpower. The entire clump of willpower was sent toward the lightning character. Alas, the character was still a tiny bit away from advancement.

Out of the eight experts, six had been killed. Only the peng and a ninth-stage Cloudbreach remained. The Cloudbreach had also transformed into their original form: a massive hawk. They were fleeing madly.

Both the peng and the hawk were winged creatures, so both were extremely fast. They did not bother saying anything to each other. It wasn't like they had the luxury to talk. They had stumbled upon an opponent they absolutely couldn't challenge.

There were only two paths before them: A successful escape or death.

Meanwhile, Lei Jue was already less than a kilometer away from Su Yu. That gap could be closed instantly.

Both the peng and the hawk were overjoyed. Lei Jue was near. If Cui Lang continued attacking them, the slight delay would be enough for Lei Jue to catch up. Lei Jue was in a completely different league than the hawk. He might only be a ninth-stage Cloudbreach, but he was far stronger than even regular Mountainseas.

Su Yu was gnashing his teeth with fury.

That bastard!

Did that annoying bastard really think that he had been running because he was afraid? He had exposed too many of his tricks here. There was no way he was going to let the peng and hawk leave with their lives. Sure, they might not have noticed the things he did, such as using his character technique and releasing the little furball, but there was no guarantee

Since he was going to expose his Sky Sundering Saber one way or another, he did not hesitate. He roared yet again.

"Sky Sundering!"

All his acupoints activated as he unleashed the most powerful saber strike he was capable of. All around him, Great Xia King's saber qi converged on him. At the same time, his hammer struck the peng while the little furball attacked the hawk's sea of willpower.

Both of them were momentarily stunned. The saber descended upon them.

Boom!

A gigantic saber ray soared into the sky, its blinding radiance spreading hundreds of meters away. The surrounding area was fully emptied of saber qi while the ground cracked. Every single person in the Skyrend Valley looked in that direction. Many of them were stunned.

Which was the real Huang Teng? That saber eruption was just as powerful as the one they saw earlier. But both had erupted in two opposite directions. Which of them was Huang Teng's?

The ones who were not anywhere near the two couldn't reach a conclusion. Both the peng and hawk broke into pieces.

Rumble!

Yet another heavenly reward dropped from the sky. This time, it was a natural character. After killing multiple experts, including a ninth-stage Cloudbreach, this reward felt especially powerful.

The natural character entered Su Yu's sea of willpower only to be instantly shattered by the golden book. This time, Su Yu was able to get a good look at the character before it was destroyed. He cursed furiously when he noticed what it was.

A space character! It was a space character! Alas, it was not of the human language. Rather, it was written in the divine language.

Holy shit! That was something he had been looking for. Even if it was not a human character, it was still a natural character. Why did that damn book crush it? His heart ached. But he didn't have the time to think too much. He was greatly drained after killing the two demonic beasts. Behind him, a bolt of lightning was approaching him rapidly.

Lei Jue had arrived.

He was very shocked as well, but that did not stop him from attacking Su Yu. In fact, he knew that the human before him was greatly drained. This was a good opportunity to kill this human, who was not weaker than Huang Teng at all!

He didn't have the time to check the index. But he was sure that this human might have reached the first place of the Profound Index. Or perhaps this human was already in the Earth Index.

After all, so many experts had been killed, including a ninth-stage Cloudbreach. This human had killed a genius eight minor realms above him. How terrifying. It would definitely be extremely profitable to kill this human.

A bolt of lightning struck Su Yu's back. His third-tier lightning character wasn't even able to fully digest the heavenly reward yet. It released a burst of lightning to withstand the lightning attack, but it was instantly defeated.

Su Yu wasted no time. After coughing a mouthful of blood, he burned his blood in the area into nothingness before running. While running, he used the Time technique to speed up and the slow character to delay his pursuer. A cruel look covered his face. Just wait!

When he was done absorbing the character intent and upgrading his character, they could finally battle for real.

"Trying to run?"

Lei Jue was getting more and more desperate as well. He couldn't afford to let this human escape. If this human was allowed to run, it would be very hard for him to remain in pursuit. Furthermore, he wasn't even sure if he would be able to defeat this human if the human was allowed to recover. He wasn't sure of his ability to prevail over the level of strength that the human had displayed to kill the group earlier. There were eight of them in the group. But the human had killed them all so easily.

With that, the fight and pursuit between a human and a divine began.

Lightning bolts rained down relentlessly while saber rays danced in the air. They exchanged numerous blows, and Su Yu's defenses were broken through repeatedly. His body was suffering badly, but he wasn't just taking blows without counterattacking. He constantly swung his hammer with his vibrate character active.

All the people they encounter on their way would hurriedly move away from the two. A battle of this level was definitely comparable to the level Huang Teng was in. They did not have the courage to get involved in the battle of such powerful individuals. Even if they were given the chance to ambush such individuals, they wouldn't dare.
