Chapter 1769: Double Daofuse (3)

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Su Yu did not say too much. For him, gossip was meant to be remembered. And he knew quite a lot. For example, the love story of Lan Tian and Silk Destroying King. For example, the ugly Battle King. For example, Battle King's descendant, the number one pretty boy, Great Xia King. For example, Martial King and his countless wives. For example, Control King was a traitor. For example, Culture King had a psychopathic younger sister.

Had he leaked any of them?

Nope.

Oh right, he also knew about Martial Emperor's buttocks being used as a garden. That was quite a big gossip as well.

Fortunately, he was not the type to spread gossip.

Right, right, there was also the gossip about the Qin Family. However, Qin Zhen had leaked it himself. A story between him and immortal fairies.

As Su Yu recalled all that, he had the urge to write a book in the future. A book collecting the gossip of the various eras. History must be remembered, right? Thus, he decided to preserve these gossips in a way that only the top experts in existence could see them. These shall be the secret gossips of the world.

While thinking about all that, he drew his saber and got to work. He stabbed it at the gigantic beast in the air. He was pushed one step back after leaving only a tiny hole in the corpse. In mere moments, the hole had repaired itself.

He gasped and said, "Wasn't the skin of this beast removed?"

Even dead and without its skin, the body was still unbelievably powerful. What if this beast were still alive? Su Yu would probably fail to leave even a mark on it with his saber. The gap between them was incredibly big.

The current Su Yu was still weaker than Daofuses, but he was definitely far stronger than regular ninth-degree Eternals.

Great Qin King was among the strongest ninth-degree Eternals in existence, but Su Yu believed that he could put up a fight against Great Qin King even without relying on borrowed power.

By simply opening his Heaven Gate, his physical strength would exceed a hundred million acupoints. It was unlikely that Great Qin King would be stronger with that. And without his tri-life bodies and Source Return Blade, he would be even weaker.

Great Qin King swallowed and said, "This...doesn't seem to be something we can fuse with easily."

"Yes. It even has a remnant will in it." Su Yu solemnly said, "I'm worried that you will fail to withstand the remnant will."

It would be safer to let a Daofuse walk this path instead. For anyone below the Daofuse Realm, this would be a perilous path.

Great Qin King was not a clueless brute. He glanced at Great Xia King and said, "A remnant will? So be it. A remnant will can help temper our will as well. An expert of this level is something that we might not encounter even after a lifetime of cultivation. Old Xia, let's go in together. Abandon our bodies and devour this heavenly desolate beast!"

Great Xia King grinned and asked, "Are you certain?"

"Are you scared?"

"Bullshit! If you dare, I naturally have nothing to fear as well. No matter what, I have one extra tri-life body than you. I am far stronger than the current you."

"In that case, stop wasting time. Su Yu, don't bother trying to cut this thing up. We will devour this beast from the inside."

Great Qin King was incredibly decisive once he made a choice. By cutting the beast apart, its vitality would leak. That would weaken what they could gain. They might as well fuse with the beast from the inside.

As Su Yu furrowed his brows, the white dog said, "That's doable. The greatest difficulty is the strand of remnant will inside. Your bodies will be fine, but there is a danger of having your seas of willpower destroyed by that remnant will. You might die if you fail to withstand the remnant will.

"But if you do succeed, you will have a very high chance of becoming Daofuses. Daofuses of physical body dao. After all, this heavenly desolate beast walked the physical body dao as well. This is a dao unique to this race."

In short, Culture King would not leave something of inferior quality behind.

"Good!" Great Qin King looked at Su Yu with a grin and said, "Don't worry. We, too, are people who have climbed our way to the top from mountains of corpses. To be honest, we have been living in constant fear and worry about the future of humanity.

"You have recruited a bunch of experts to our side, but you're also right about one thing. Outsiders can never be fully on the same side as us. Having humanity rule, yet the subordinates are stronger, is not a good idea. Humanity must produce its own Daofuses as well. Old Zhou alone won't be sufficient. You alone won't be sufficient either."

Great Qin King continued, "By becoming Daofuses, we can at least provide a counterbalance to the other factions under you. Otherwise, things might fall apart the moment you leave.

"Since you have prepared even a new dao for us, we only need to survive the attempt. If we can't do even this, we might as well die. Don't worry. We are not that useless. The spear of Qin and blade of Xia are not famed for no reason."

Then, he shot straight into the mouth of the heavenly desolate beast.

With a hearty laugh, Great Xia King said, "How fast. Wait for me!"

With that, the two vanished into the mouth of the beast. Right at that moment, a ferocious glint flickered in the eyes of the beast. Its mouth instantly clamped shut.

Shocked, Su Yu was just about to do something when the white dog rushed over. After a glance at the beast, the white dog said, "Don't do anything. This is their battle. The remnant will is still around. It will naturally resist any attempt to steal its body. A fight is necessary to resolve this. If they win, they can smoothly gain the ownership of this corpse. If they lose...they will be rejected by the dao of this beast even after devouring the corpse."

Su Yu asked, "Will things go wrong?"

It would be very troublesome if the two were to die during this attempt. It would be hard for him to explain this to the other humans. Furthermore, he would feel immense guilt toward them.

The white dog shook his head and said, "I don't know. We shall see. A dao left behind by Master won't be so easy to inherit. Otherwise, you would have started your dao fusion long ago."

Culture King was not kind enough to spoon-feed his successors. For example, Su Yu needed ninety-nine characters before he could attempt to inherit the pen dao.

Thus, it was only natural that the heavenly desolate beast's dao wouldn't be easy to inherit either. The Heavenly Hunt Index was also a good example of this. Even after numerous epochs, Heavenly Overseer Marquis had yet to successfully inherit this dao.

As for the ink dao, Liu Hong had spent quite a lot of effort on it as well. He even had to explore the Death Realm in pursuit of this dao.

Su Yu nodded and said nothing else. Instead of wasting his time idling around, he utilized the pressure of the beast to increase his mastery over his various techniques. Such pressure made for a very suitable environment for the tempering of his techniques.

It was time for him to convert more techniques into characters. If it wasn't for the fear that his body wouldn't be able to handle it, he would have tried consuming a drop of blood essence from the heavenly desolate beast as well. But he had abandoned that thought as quickly as it had appeared.

Perhaps he was already strong enough to withstand the blood essence of the heavenly desolate beast, but it would push him to the level of a Master of Law. And the laws would certainly erase him the moment that happened.

Meanwhile, Great Qin King and Great Xia King were actually fusing with the beast rather than devouring it as mentioned. They were essentially there to transform their bodies. With the two digesting this corpse together, they could probably both achieve Daofuse by the time they were done.

***

Su Yu started practicing his numerous techniques while converting them into characters.

One day passed.

Two days.

Three days.

In three days, he converted fourteen techniques into characters. Including his previous characters, he had amassed sixty of them.

Over the three days, Great Xia King and Great Qin King remained inside the beast. The beast itself remained the same as well. But if one focused, one could hear faint roars coming from within the beast. Some originated from Great Qin King, and some originated from Great Xia King. Some also originated from the beast.

A battle raged between them. A battle between them and the remnant will.

Su Yu could feel that this was most certainly a painful process. Even someone as resolute as Great Qin King was forced to roar in pain. He remembered how Great Qin King had not roared with such intensity even when he was closest to death previously.

Thinking it would be funny to do so, Su Yu even recorded their screams of pain. He was certain that the two would survive; thus, he was still in the mood to joke around. They would absolutely survive!

Why was he so sure? Because the moment he detected that they would die, he would cut the corpse apart and rescue them. Since survival was guaranteed, he naturally had to record their screams for...the preservation of history.

Year 352 of Anping Calendar, Great Xia King and Great Qin King roared in pain from the terrible beating they were receiving. This recording should serve as proof for future generations.

***

This process lasted much longer than the one involving Xia Longwu.

In the blink of an eye, ten days passed. On the eleventh day, massive rumbles erupted from within the beast. The pressure released by the beast started weakening rapidly. And then, physical changes started occurring.

The gigantic corpse started shrinking. And finally, the belly of the beast burst open with a rumbling explosion. Both Great Qin King and Great Xia King flew out, emanating powerful auras, their presences akin to ferocious primordial beasts.

"I survived!"

With his ferocious aura, Great Qin King resembled a bloodthirsty primordial beast. The same could be said for Great Xia King. The moment their gazes landed on Su Yu, they blanked out, the ferocious look in their eyes dissipating.

At the moment, Su Yu was taking pictures and videos of them with a jade talisman.

He was even narrating as he did that, "Juniors of the future generations, here, we have Great Qin King and Great Xia King. This is one of their numerous contributions to humanity. They have devoured the corpse of a heavenly desolate beast. They were engaged in a bitter struggle against the beast for eleven days, suffering massively in the process. Those of the future generations, do not forget the contributions of the two great seniors."

Both Great Qin King and Great Xia King exhaled in relief. So this was what he was doing. Good. This wasn't a bad thing for them.

But next, they heard Su Yu continuing in a low voice, "They have just returned from the belly of the beast. Their previous bodies have been corroded away in the belly of the beast. Thus, do not be surprised by their nakedness. Why care about the nakedness of heroes? Even naked, heroes shall remain heroes."

"..."

The expressions of the two changed massively.

Fuck!

The suffering was too much, and their excitement was too great. They had completely forgotten about this matter. In the blink of an eye, clothes formed of source qi manifested around their bodies. Then, the two ferocious beasts charged toward Su Yu.

They had decided that this recording must be destroyed. Even at the risk of offending Su Yu, they had to get the recording from him! They would not let the matter end before erasing the recording!

Boom!

And thus, a massive battle between three beast-like individuals erupted. Su Yu was quite curious himself. Just how strong would they be with only the body of the beast. After all, they had yet to fuse with the dao of the beast.

Boom!

None fought with the power of laws. They fought with only their physical strength. Even so, their battle seemed apocalyptic.

Annoyed, the white dog had to seek the help of the book spirit and tea plant to set a protection barrier in the area. They couldn't allow the three beasts to damage the beautiful flowers and plants around the residence.

Meanwhile, the three beasts continued fighting madly. None of them had started the process of dao fusion. Su Yu demonstrated countless techniques. He was using this battle to further temper his techniques, while Great Qin King and Great Xia King were using this battle to familiarize themselves with their new bodies.

Very powerful.

Working together, they were even able to slightly suppress Su Yu, whose body was comparable to that of a ninth-degree Eternal. Without access to the power of laws, the two were supposed to be only mere Sunmoons. And Su Yu himself was also a mere Sunmoon. But this battle between three so-called Sunmoons was as intense as a battle between Daofuses.

In fact, this was the true form of Sunmoons. This was how Sunmoons were during the ancient and primordial past. Or to be precise, this was how top Sunmoons were back then.

Great Qin King and Great Xia King did not lack combat experience. They were merely unfamiliar with their new bodies. Both parties required tempering.

One was tempering his techniques while two were tempering their bodies. The battle lasted a long while. Ultimately, Su Yu demonstrated a higher level of endurance than the two. No matter what, the two had yet to start their dao fusion. Their bodies might be powerful, but individually, they were slightly weaker than Su Yu.

With a rumble, the two were sent flying away. Su Yu, who was panting heavily, grinned.

"I will keep the recording. This will be fun to watch!"

Both Great Xia King and Great Qin King snorted coldly. At that, a strand of saber qi and spear qi appeared in Su Yu's recording talisman. With a rumble, it exploded. The three stared at each other for a bit before breaking out in laughter.

Success!

Next, they could proceed with dao fusion.

The moment Su Yu tossed the Heavenearth Inkstone out, the eyes of Great Xia King and Great Qin King lit up. They could feel it! They could feel a great sense of intimacy with it! Dao fusion! They must fuse with this dao! As for whether they could ultimately become Masters of Law, luck would decide.

Even now, they could feel that they would be much stronger than regular Daofuses just by becoming Daofuses. This was definitely not a weak dao. And the two of them had the entire dao for themselves!

Before long, all three entered the River of Time. Or to be precise, they stepped right onto the surface of the river without the need to tear space apart. After all, this residence was already located inside the river. Led by the Heavenearth Inkstone, they moved behind the residence and continued onward toward the main stretch of the river.

Before long, they were standing atop a majestic river. Boundless joy radiated from the Heavenearth Inkstone as it led them deeper and deeper into the river. For the very first time, Su Yu saw what a so-called sealed dao looked like.

This seal looked much more impressive than Control King's. He saw a tributary. On the surface of the tributary, strands of power swirled. These strands were most likely left behind by Culture King, here to seal the entire tributary.

Even if someone could reach this place and comprehend the dao of the tributary, they wouldn't be able to initiate dao fusion with it. Only with the Heavenearth Inkstone in possession would one be able to do so.

The moment it arrived, the Heavenearth Inkstone shattered the seal by merely ramming into it. The seal offered no resistance. After exchanging gazes with each other, both Great Qin King and Great Xia King rushed forward in excitement.

Dao fusion!

***

Su Yu waited outside while observing the dao represented by the tributary.

It was massive.

It might be weaker than the physical dao of humanity, but it was the third-largest dao Su Yu had seen. The death spirit dao occupied the first place, with humanity's physical body dao at the second place, and this heavenly desolate beast dao at the third place.

After an indeterminate amount of time, two powerful beings flew out of the tributary. Their auras had surpassed that of Su Yu.

With a hearty laughter, Great Qin King declared, "I feel like I am strong enough to give Tiangu a beating!"

But Su Yu believed that Great Qin King was simply lost in power. That was not yet possible. However, Su Yu also believed that the current Great Qin King was already good enough to rival Jiwu and Mo Ji.

This was already incredibly powerful. Great Xia King was slightly weaker, at the Ape Pseudo Emperor's level.

It didn't matter.

He only needed to know that both had finally attained Daofuse. Su Yu was happy to see this. Very good. It was finally done. He had yet to initiate his dao fusion, but it also wouldn't be too far away. Over the past eleven days, he had pushed his total number of characters to ninety.

It was likely that he would reach his required number on his way to the Five Elemental Realm. When that happened, he could finally pay the pen dao a visit.

Hopefully, it would be stronger than the heavenly desolate beast's dao. He believed that it could very well be stronger. After all, it was the dao Culture King had risen to prominence with.

"Humanity has...finally risen!"

Both Great Xia King and Great Qin King roared with laughter.

They had succeeded! They couldn't hide their excitement.
