Chapter 1766: Follow Me, Live A Good Life (3)

After removing the aura imprint left in the blade, Su Yu tossed it at Xia Longwu and said, "Refine it. The Weapon Fusion Method isn't hard to learn, especially for an Eternal like you. You have already fused all your acupoints into one. Just pour all your comprehension of the Sky Sundering Saber into the Source Return Blade. I use this method to transform my techniques into characters, but since you can't do that, you can use the Source Return Blade as the intermediary instead."

Xia Longwu only understood part of what Su Yu was saying. But as a whole, he was still feeling quite clueless.

Nevertheless, he was a genius. It didn't take him long to gain his own understanding of this method. He unhesitatingly channeled his saber qi and comprehension of the Sky Sundering Saber into the Source Return Blade.

A divine weapon was very powerful. The blade was trying to reject the attempt. After all, it used to be Devote King's weapon. It did not want to fuse with a different dao. Noticing what was happening, Su Yu released his aura and suppressed the blade.

With a slight tremble, the blade submitted. It was essentially a masterless item. Thus, it wasn't able to resist much. Before long, it started shining resplendently. Xia Longwu had completed the refinement of the weapon.

Then, Su Yu took Xia Longwu back to their previous spot. At this point, even Su Yu was starting to feel some exhaustion. The River of Time was not something to be easily traversed.

When they arrived, the saber character floated above the gap again. As of this moment, Su Yu could start fusing with this dao if he so wished. But he did not do so. There was no need for that.

What if there was a conflict between this dao and the pen dao? It would be troublesome to deal with it then. Su Yu wanted the pen dao to be the first dao he fused with.

"Place the Source Return Blade here. Use it as the bridge."

"Understood."

Xia Longwu wasted no time. In truth, he was still confused, but his instincts were telling him that this would be good for him. Before long, he tossed the Source Return Blade out. As the blade flew out, it started enlarging. Finally, a large saber-shaped bridge took form.

"Step on it. Keep walking forward. Fuse with the saber dao. Go as far as you can."

"Understood."

Xia Longwu's aura surged as he stepped onto the blade. Moments later, he entered the tributary. Instantly, his saber qi surged, growing rapidly.

Strand after strand of saber qi was rising from the tributary. Rather than a river, the tributary was actually a saber. Finally, the strands started entering Xia Longwu's body, causing his saber qi to boil as he roared, "I can feel it! Powerful saber qi! Now I understand! When I used my saber previously, apart from stronger physical strength, my saber never felt particularly sharp!"

So that was the case. So he had always been pursuing the wrong dao! He had merely been pursuing the physical body dao!

As he stretched his hand out, the Source Return Blade flew into his hand. Then, he started stepping forward, with wisps of saber qi rising all around him. These wisps were the power of law. They were meant to both assist and restrict him, strengthening and attacking him at the same time.

With the saber in hand, Xia Longwu continued onward, rumbling sounds erupting all around him.

With a roar, he pushed on. Eventually, he went far enough that Su Yu couldn't see him anymore.

In Su Yu's opinion, Xia Longwu was already strong. With the saber dao and Source Return Blade, he could probably return as a seventh-degree Eternal.

"Upon leaving, he will attract the attention of the laws."

After all, those using something other than the Three Body Method to initiate dao fusion would be punished by the laws. Thus, it was likely that Xia Longwu's emergence into the outside world would be greeted by the punishment of the laws.

Su Yu was unbothered. He could simply stuff Xia Longwu into the Culture King's Residence and wait out the tribulation. He could even take this chance to milk some power from the tribulation to strengthen his own characters.

Meanwhile, rumbling sounds continued coming from the tributary. Xia Longwu's roars were unending as well. This seemed to be a harder dao to pursue than the physical body dao.

With the physical body dao, everyone only needed to bring their three bodies together. And without even knowing what was happening, they would complete their dao affirmation. However, this was a path where progress was difficult.

Furthermore, the weak Three Body Method wasn't much help either. As a result, most of the cultivators pursuing the physical body dao would end up stuck. After a while, a figure appeared in the distance. From afar, it looked like a saber. Its edge gleamed with incomparable sharpness.

Xia Longwu was drenched in his own blood, but he was laughing heartily. He was wild with joy.

"Only now do I understand that this is the path the blade of Xia should truly traverse! Thank you, Emperor Yu!"

He no longer felt awkward calling Su Yu that. After all, he now owed Su Yu the debt of dao inheritance. This was a massive favor. He felt like his entire being had transformed. The weak discomfort he would feel in the past was gone. He only felt a boundless comfort.

He knew that he had finally stepped onto the right dao. Through this dao, he could grow just by cultivating his saber.

In the past, no matter how much he cultivated his saber, the effect would be minimal. As a result, he was forced to temper his body more than his saber. Why? Because he was pursuing the physical body dao, not the saber dao.

Boom!

With one step, he withdrew and returned to the main river.

Su Yu was already near his limit. Before leaving, he gave a reminder, "When we exit this place, the laws will punish you. Watch out. I'll take you to Culture King's old residence. Do not resist."

"Understood."

Xia Longwu replied loudly.

He couldn't resist saying, "I feel like I might have really reached the seventh degree. What a pity. Given the same opportunity, my grandfather could have achieved Daofuse directly. Emperor Yu, my grandfather..."

While retracing their path back, Su Yu said, "You are now familiar with this dao. Is the power of this dao sufficient? Can you feel someone competing over the power of this dao with you?"

"I...think so."

"In that case, some ancient fellows must still be alive. They are fighting over this dao in the Upper Realm. It's not a good idea to cram too many people into the same dao. We don't know if the others are enemies or friends. It will also complicate your ascension into the Daofuse Realm. Great Xia King can walk a different dao for now. I have a dao with no competitor reserved for him. Otherwise, you will start competing among yourselves for the same dao."

Su Yu added, "For you, you can walk this dao alone. When you encounter competitors, kill them if they are enemies. If the Master of Law is still around, and if that master is an enemy, kill them as well. This way, you will be able to master this entire dao."

Su Yu concluded, "Don't compete among ourselves. Instead, strive to kill all your enemies."

"Emperor Yu, is it possible that the other cultivators of this dao are humans as well?"

"Who knows?"

Xia Longwu said nothing else.

At this point, Su Yu's plan was clear. It did not matter who the competitors were. As long as they were against him, he would kill them all. It would be far better to leave the dao to only those supportive of him.

Xia Longwu did not argue against that. It wasn't like he was a saint himself. He, too, was someone whose hands were drenched in blood. Since Su Yu wished to dominate the world, it was only natural that he wanted to kill all opposition.

Xia Longwu had gained a lot from this tour to the River of Time.

***

The two stepped out of the River of Time.

Immediately after, crimson lightning bolts flashed in the sky above.

Sure enough, those walking a path other than the Three Body Method would all be punished. The others were alarmed. Even Xia Longwu couldn't resist tightening his grip on his saber as his killing intent surged.

Su Yu smiled and said, "Give it a slash. Test out your new power."

"Understood."

Under everyone's shocked gaze, Xia Longwu swung his saber at the sky.

His saber was incomparably sharp.

The jaw of Great Xia King dropped. Holy shit! Why did that blade feel even sharper than his? That was not the end of his surprise. He could sense that Xia Longwu had seemingly reached the seventh degree after only a short trip with Su Yu. His new cultivation level, coupled with a correct dao and a divine weapon, gave everyone the sensation that he was already comparable to Great Xia King in strength. His body felt weaker. His life force felt less vibrant as well. But the sharpness of his saber qi had surpassed even Great Xia King's saber qi.

Great Xia King was staring so hard that it felt as though his eyeballs were about to pop out of his eyesockets.

Holy shit!

Was he still the number one saber cultivator in the world? Why did he feel like he had been surpassed?

Xia Longwu might be his grandson, but Great Xia King was still unhappy to have his saber surpassed. What the hell was this? Had they perhaps experienced ten thousand years in that short trip into the River of Time? Had they perhaps spent a far longer time in there?

That was the only explanation for Xia Longwu's excessive increase in strength!

This shouldn't be possible!

Boom!

While Great Xia King was deep in shock, the saber swung forth, splitting the sky and cutting the crimson cloud into pieces. But in a split second, the pieces rejoined. Nevertheless, this feat alone was enough to shock all the observers.

Too powerful.

Among the crowd, Marquis Xia's jaw dropped as well. He turned to look at Zhu Tiandao. Suddenly, he roared with laughter. It was as though he was reminding Zhu Tiandao about the true biggest investor of Su Yu.

The answer was naturally the Xia Family!

Was that Zhu guy seeing this? The Xia Family was finally harvesting the rewards of their initial investment.

His nephew had vanished for a short while before returning as a seventh-degree Eternal. As for his combat strength, Marquis Xia had a feeling that no more than five humans could contend against that saber of his nephew.

Zhu Tiandao's jaw dropped as well. Holy shit! What about his family? Had Su Yu forgotten that there were experts in his family as well? How did Xia Longwu grow so strong in such a short time? This unfairness was unacceptable! The Zhu Family had supported him as well!

Zhu Tiandao roared, "Emperor Yu is wise. He will establish an empire that will last throughout the ages, unify all existence..."

He was reminding Su Yu that the Zhu Family was still around.

He recalled Su Yu saying something about Great Xia King and Great Qin King earlier. But Su Yu had not mentioned his old man! His old man only received a praise in his mastery over formations. This was unacceptable!

Why was this happening? He couldn't accept this! This would allow the Xia Family to surpass his family!

As for the others, all their eyes widened in shock. Xia Longwu had only left for a short while. After a single trip to the River of Time with Su Yu, he had transformed from a cripple with only one body left into someone whose saber qi had surpassed even Great Xia King's!

Just what was going on? Su Yu's strength belonged only to himself. The strength of his powerful backers belonged only to them.

When he previously claimed that he would help humanity grow strong, they didn't take him seriously. In fact, they were also skeptical about the fact that September would achieve Daofuse soon.

But now, they were incomparably shocked.

Truly.

They grew both excited and envious. Would they receive similar opportunities? Would they transform into someone comparable to a ninth-degree Eternal from a crippled Eternal with only one body left? Would this happen to them as well?

They were nervous, uneasy, yet excited.

As for the likes of Great Shang King and Great Jin King, they grew restless. Su Yu was known for his pettiness. They had been quite rude to him earlier. With the growth of Xia Longwu and a few other humans, their influence among humanity would also grow. Meanwhile, the influence of Great Shang King and Great Jin King would decline.

The crimson cloud in the sky grew larger.

With a stomp, Su Yu manifested another river. Stepping on the river, he shot forward with Xia Longwu in tow. A unique power rippled out of the Book of Time, covering Xia Longwu in his entirety.

Then, the two vanished. Up in the sky, the crimson cloud seemed confused at the sudden loss of its target. Xia Longwu had entered a lawless land, a place the heavenly laws couldn't reach. The cloud could no longer sense its target of punishment. It was confused.

Was its target dead?

That was the only conclusion the laws could draw.

And thus, the crimson cloud started dissipating.

Su Yu did not reappear straight away. After a moment, he returned with Xia Longwu. The crimson cloud did not return.

Meanwhile, Xia Longwu was blanking out. He seemed to have seen something earlier, but before he could get a clear look at the legendary Culture King's Residence, he was dragged back out by Su Yu.

The crimson cloud was gone. Only then did he realize what was happening. The blank look on his face vanished, replaced by a wide smile. He had finally become a proper expert of the saber dao! He felt as though his mastery of saber had surpassed even his grandfather's!

He couldn't resist looking at Great Xia King, who was flashing him a stiff smile.

The fuck was this kid looking at him for? Great Xia King wanted to shout that he would forever be the number one saber of humanity!

The blade of Xia only enjoyed its current reputation because of him! He was naturally unhappy at being surpassed. How could his grandson's saber grow sharper than his? This was unacceptable!

Amid the crowd, Great Zhou King observed the crowd, looked at Xia Longwu, before settling on Su Yu. Calm fully returned to him. As of this moment, the unification of humanity was finally complete.

When Su Yu gained the ability to produce an expert no weaker than Great Xia King, these Eternals would finally wake up from their illusions. They should finally realize that even without them, Su Yu could still dominate the world. But without him, they might die soon.

"Emperor Yu is wise."

Great Zhou King's words roused everyone from their shock.

Then, they all bowed, regardless of whether they were new Invincibles or veteran Invincibles, and said, "Emperor Yu is wise."

Their voices reverberated everywhere.

All in the Human Realm heard them.

"Emperor Yu is wise."

They did not know what was happening. But since the Invincibles were uttering these words, the masses naturally followed suit. Most of them concluded that Emperor Yu must have performed yet another astonishing feat.

Su Yu smiled and said, "Everyone will receive their opportunity. The fate of current humanity lies on all your shoulders."

Su Yu's voice spread out, "The various seniors have sheltered the myriad lives within the Human Realm. Their contributions are undeniable. When unification is complete, all shall be rewarded accordingly. Your future conferments shall be witnessed by the very heavens, and your legacy shall endure for eternity."

Such a title was much more valuable than the so-called kings of the tenth epoch. In fact, even the title of a marquis, as witnessed by the heavens, would be far more valuable than the current self-appointed kings.

Numerous voices rose in answer, "We thank the emperor!"

The power of luck surged.

In the East Heaavenly Palace, the human lord's token started growing. In the blink of an eye, its golden stripes reached 145, becoming a divine weapon.

***

The entire Myriad Realms trembled.

Above the Human Realm, a silhouette manifested.

That was Su Yu.

Clad in fluttering white robes, with a crown on his head, and a book in hand, he towered over the Allheaven Battlefield. His aura covered the entirety of the Human Realm before proceeding to spread further.

One silhouette after another appeared outside the various realms.

Tiangu had an unsightly expression.

Jiwu's smile had vanished.

Mo Ji had a solemn expression.

Su Yu had finally completed the unification of humanity. The true human lord of the tenth epoch was thus born. This was too sudden. They couldn't believe this.

It hadn't been that long since their previous battle. Yes, he had contributed massively during that battle. But his feats were still not sufficient to truly win the allegiance of people like Great Qin King. But now, he had won the allegiance of all humans.

That silhouette above the Human Realm was a manifestation by the myriad daos.

It reflected the collective will of humanity.

At the same time, various ancient race experts were shocked.

Fate Realm, a unique realm hanging in the sky.

Fate Pseudo Emperor's silhouette appeared outside the realm with a look of disbelief and shock.

Unification...just like that? That was way too fast. He hadn't even finished his contemplation. Just how many days had it been? Were the old humans of this epoch so easily subdued? Did they all submit the moment Su Yu showcased a tiny bit of power?

Fate Pseudo Emperor's jaw dropped. He simply couldn't believe this.

***

Elsewhere, Heavenly Overseer Marquis was sighing.

Everything had changed.

"Perhaps...the second war of the myriad realms is arriving."

This was too fast. And Su Yu was simply too domineering.
