Chapter 994: Comfortable Life (2)

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Together with his tails, Su Yu left the island.

The sea was as tranquil as ever.

As he headed further out, the ambient source qi started rising in density.

Sights of Skysoars hunting demonic beasts under the supervision of their seniors were quite common near the island. Su Yu did not approach any of them and continued flying away from the island.

He acted cautiously and even took the trouble to stop every now and then to scan his surroundings for any hidden enemies as he traveled. After about an hour, he was hundreds of kilometers away from the island.

At that moment, he stopped while grumbling about how patient his tails were. They were still silently following him. This place was devoid of people. Why were they still not attacking? What were they waiting for? Had they discovered each other and decided to act cautiously instead?

Su Yu did not have the time to waste as he still needed to find a suitable location to work on the corpse.

Floating above the sea, Su Yu spoke, "It's about time you show yourself, right? How long are you going to wait? How brazen of you. I'm a mountainbreak bull, a member of a top 100 race, a race backed by Invincibles. Are you not afraid of getting in trouble with my race?"

There was no response. Su Yu shook his head. They probably believed that he was bluffing. Whatever. It was time to end this game.

With his Perception Jade, he confirmed that they were the only ones in the area. He was also quite sure that there was nobody even in the immediate surroundings of the radius covered by his Perception Jade. His tribulation character remained completely calm despite the fact that a Mountainsea was tailing him.

This would be a good place to deal with these people. First, he would deal with the Mountainsea. With the Mountainsea gone, none of the Cloudbreaches would be able to escape him.

With his body reaching the level of thirty thousand acupoints, his speed, strength, and resistance had all reached a level comparable to a Mountainsea. He merely looked less impressive normally because most of his opponents were the geniuses of powerful races.

Abruptly, he shot in a certain direction, moving at an astonishingly fast speed. As he vanished with a flicker, the air around a certain spot warped. Then, a fist appeared out of nowhere.

Boom!

A cheetah appeared and hurriedly attacked with his claws.

Boom!

With a single strike, the cheetah's limb was crushed into mincemeat.

"Impossible."

The cheetah was alarmed. He was a second-stage Mountainsea while his target was only a Cloudbreach. How was this possible? How could his powerful claws fall apart from a simple punch? No, this was not a Cloudbreach. No, this wasn't even a mountainbreak bull! But that attack was clearly Mountainbreak, the racial ability of the mountainbreak bulls.

"Furball, time to work. Hurry up. Don't let any of them escape."

The little furball flickered and vanished from Su Yu's sea of willpower. He was a Cloudbreach from an ancient race. And he was an extremely unique existence. It was far too easy for him to deal with others in a similar cultivation level.

A painful wail rang out somewhere further away, but nothing was visible. As for Su Yu, he threw another punch. And when the cheetah tried to flee, a hammer appeared and descended upon him.

Boom!

Intense rumbles rang out in the cheetah's sea of willpower. With another punch by Su Yu, the head burst apart and blood sprayed everywhere.

"Trash."

Su Yu shook his head. He knew this race. This was the shadow cheetah race, a top 1000 race. It was a race with a ninth-stage Sunmoon and no Invincible. Even as a second-stage Mountainsea, this cheetah was far easier to kill than Lei Jue. Sure enough, the gap between a major race and a minor race was massive.

"Garbage with less than a hundred acupoints."

Su Yu shook his head. This was probably one of those weak Mountainseas with only the strength of around twenty thousand acupoints. Apart from a slightly faster speed, his cultivation method, body, weapon, and even combat ability were all incredibly weak.

Someone like this could kill regular Cloudbreaches, but someone like Su Yu could easily kill him without even using his willpower. He couldn't be bothered to waste more time and launched another hammer strike to completely crush the cheetah's sea of willpower.

After putting the corpse away, Su Yu grumbled again. This broke cheetah was so poor he didn't even have a storage ring. Apart from his body and blood, the cheetah had nothing else to offer.

Done with the cheetah, Su Yu flew to a different spot. There, a group of comatose individuals could be seen. There were seven of them. Not one had managed to escape. Floating in front of them was the smug little furball. After stacking all seven Cloudbreaches together, his smug smile stretched over his entire body.

He started showing off his contribution to Su Yu. Too lazy to say anything, Su Yu released his willpower and killed all seven of them. Then, the heavenly rewards for the accumulated kills appeared. Two shining clouds descended from the sky.

The bigger cloud approached Su Yu while the smaller cloud approached the little furball. The rewards were decent. After all, he had still killed someone an entire realm above him. But at this point, a reward that was decent for others was no longer decent for him.

He much preferred the rewards of killing geniuses. For example, killing Mo Duona would probably grant him even better rewards than what he could get from killing a Sunmoon. Yes, Mo Duona was merely a ninth-stage Cloudbreach, but that was how the heavenly laws worked. This was why everyone loved killing geniuses in the Allheaven Battlefield.

But to be fair, the reward for this kill was actually quite good. He received ten portions of heavenly source qi for an easy fight like this. Furthermore, rewarded heavenly source qi was much easier to absorb compared to regular heavenly source qi.

He started the process of absorbing and processing the heavenly source qi before tempering his body with it. His body grew slightly, and his progress on his twenty-eighth body forging increased further.

As for the little furball, he looked somewhat displeased. He received a little bit of willpower, but it wasn't enough for him. With a look of disgust, he ate the willpower and grumbled that it wasn't yummy at all.

Su Yu ignored the furball and started cleaning all traces of battle. Here in the Sea of Stars, one could die without anyone knowing unless one was an index genius. The vast Sea of Stars was also a massive graveyard. Before long, all traces of battle were removed.

Su Yu went through another round of cleaning just in case he missed something. He even gave the little furball a little burn before stuffing the furball back into his sea of willpower. "Don't leave your aura behind. If the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion manages to gather your aura, things will be very troublesome. Their people are everywhere."

This was the main reason why the little furball still wasn't on the Heavenly Hunt Index. The Heavenly Hunt Pavilion had yet to collect his aura. The Heavenly Hunt Pavilion was simply unaware of his existence.

As for the Heavenly Hunt Index, Su Yu was unsure if it wasn't powerful enough or if it was simply damaged as it could only rely on the manual entry of auras before it could start tracking the owners of those auras.

According to Su Yu's judgment, the Heavenly Hunt Index was a terrifying item. Even when he was killing inside a sealed ancient city, the index was still capable of tracking his kills. But why would something so powerful require auras to be entered manually? Logically, it only needed the names to be entered manually, not the auras. Perhaps part of its information-gathering abilities had been damaged.

Inside the sea of willpower, the little furball asked with anticipation, "When are we robbing the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion?"

"There is no rush."

Su Yu laughed, "What's the rush? If you really want it to happen so much, you can get your dada to do it."

"Dada won't do it. Dada is a good man."

Good his ass. Su Yu was totally not buying that. This was a race of people sustaining themselves by eating characters, willpower, and seas of willpower. Then again, the standard concepts of good and evil were probably not applicable here since they were such unique existences.

"Let's go. I need to find a safe place to work on the corpse."

Su Yu flew away. Not long after, several masked individuals appeared there. The Heavenly Hunt Pavilion really seemed to be everywhere.

"Some people died here."

"One of them must be a Mountainsea. Some Mountainsea undulations were felt earlier."

The masked individuals started trying to capture the auras in the area with their tools. But Soon, one of them shook their head, "The auras are gone. They must have been cleared. The victor is very cautious."

The leader of the group nodded, "Yes. We don't know who the killer was. If it was an index genius or a former index genius, our tools should be able to detect it. I wonder if it was an index genius."

A backup would be kept for every aura gathered by the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion. That way, they could determine the owner of the aura each time the aura was detected.

"Things are too chaotic right now. Too many index geniuses are here. It's either one of them or Su Yu. But we have no way of verifying that."

The leader shook his head. With the total absence of aura, they couldn't verify anything. He also suspected that Su Yu was the killer. After all, Su Yu was too murderous. But too many similarly murderous individuals had arrived as of late, so it could be someone else as well.

"The higher-ups want us to find him and hand him an index copy. He still owes us a sixth-stage Mountainsea corpse of the mystic armor race."

"He still has several Sunmoon corpses on him as well. All those are excellent products to trade with. What a pity that he's currently missing."

The Heavenly Hunt Pavilion members felt very regretful. That was a big customer. Apart from the profit they could earn from trading with him, they could also profit massively from selling his information to the various races.

As of late, numerous people had been trying to purchase his information. This was a massive business waiting for them. Alas, Su Yu was too shrewd. He had long tossed his index copy away.

That was not all. The Heavenly Index Pavilion suspected that he might have even tossed some of the things he had looted from his dead opponents. Otherwise, he would have been detected by some Invincibles long ago.

In fact, that was what those Invincibles had been trying to do. They had been trying to trace the dead Sunmoons, but something was interfering with their attempts intensely.

They were unaware that the things they were trying to track had all been buried in the Skyrend Valley. The auras of the two Invincibles who had fought there in the past and the unique environment of the Plain of Desires were making it impossible for even a Pseudo Emperor to discover anything there.
