Chapter 1796: Dao Fusion Success (3)

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

The myriad races were stirring.

Meanwhile, Su Yu was still struggling forward in the pen dao. He was trying to force his way forward, gaining more control over this dao. He did not know how much time had passed. He only knew that this tributary seemed endless. He had gone forward for a long time, but the end was still nowhere to be seen.

Just how much had Culture King developed this tributary? Then again, he wasn't exactly advancing completely blind. He could feel it whenever he reached far enough to cross a threshold and advance a degree.

At the moment, he had crossed three such thresholds, signifying that he was now a fourth-degree Eternal. After all, he would be a first-degree Eternal the moment he stepped onto the tributary.

"Fourth degree? So I'm about thirty percent through this dao..."

With that in mind, Su Yu gritted his teeth and pushed forward. Even with his impressive strength, he could only traverse about thirty percent of the dao. This pen dao was truly excessively powerful. Su Yu had a feeling his current strength had surpassed that of a regular Daofuse.

Even if he wasn't at the top, he would most certainly at the middle. Yet he was still a fourth-degree Eternal? Eventually, the character technique in front of him started dimming. The power inside was nearly drained. The rate of exhaustion was far higher than what he was receiving from the tributary.

"I'm afraid this is my limit for now."

Su Yu sighed. He couldn't fully drain his power as he still needed to save some power to leave the River of Time. And a tribulation was probably waiting for him outside. He had to save some strength.

"I guess I can accept this for now. A pity that I can't even go far enough to take a look at the arrowhead..."

Su Yu had a feeling that just by reaching the region between the shaft and the arrowhead, he would officially become a Daofuse. Essentially, he would need to grasp ninety percent of this dao. He still needed to traverse twice the distance he had traveled so far to become a Daofuse.

"So be it. I'll return in the future. After gaining enough strength, I'll charge forward again."

Fourth-degree Eternal.

This was acceptable. With only thirty percent of the pen dao, he felt like he was already far stronger than regular Daofuses.

"Go!"

Su Yu started returning. His trip backward was much easier as the part of the dao behind him had essentially fallen under his control. Before long, he was out of the tributary. His body had grown much stronger than before.

This time, he could step right through the gap without much trouble. Instead of traveling back downstream, he tore a rift here. He had to mark this spot for the future. Otherwise, he would need to travel a long way each time he wanted to visit his dao in the future.

"I must have gone far enough to leave the Five Elemental Realm."

Su Yu didn't know where he would reach upon exiting from here, but he didn't care.

In any case, it wouldn't be anywhere near the Immortal Realm or the other enemy realms. Culture King would never develop a dao near the enemy races. Thus, the exit point would probably be somewhere in the Allheaven Battlefield or near the Human Realm.

***

Allheaven Battlefield.

At an unseen corner, a rift opened in the middle of the sky.

Immediately, dark clouds gathered. A powerful figure stepped out of the rift.

Boom!

Crimson clouds joined the dark clouds in the sky.

Golden clouds were appearing as well.

Both the reward and punishment were arriving at the same time.

Su Yu had completed his dao affirmation, but he had not completed it through the Three Body Method. He was no longer a stranger to such a situation. This time, he could even see a unique power in the sky, one that felt like the power of the Human Emperor.

Instantly, numerous gazes converged on him.

Su Yu had everyone's attention. Numerous people were tempted to make a move.

At this moment, Tiangu's numerous projections were still in the middle of a discussion with the various races. When he noticed Su Yu, he told the various Daofuses, "This might be an opportunity for us. If the blood tribulation can injure him enough, we can--"

He was interrupted before he could finish.

"Impudent! How dare a puny assembly punish me?"

Boom!

He dragged his human lord's token out and smashed it onto the crimson clouds. At the same time, he pulled a pen out before pointing it at the clouds.

Rumble!

The various experts watched as Su Yu first suppressed the crimson clouds with his token before blasting them apart with his pen. A large amount of power leaked out, and the power was swallowed by Su Yu with a single bite.

As for the golden clouds, they did not arrive with any congratulatory messages. For those in the ancient past, dao fusion was merely a start. It did not deserve any special messages. A truly important milestone Su Yu could still reach was probably the mastery of a dao and becoming a Master of Law.

The golden clouds were swallowed by him with a single bite as well. He did not wish to waste too much time here. Thus, he did not bother to drag this out and milk the heavenly laws.

He knew that with how much stronger he had grown, further milking the heavenly laws could further accelerate the restoration of the connection to the Upper Realm. Thus, he opted to demonstrate his strength and end the whole thing before anyone could react.

Dao affirmation was merely the start of a longer journey. There was no need for too much fanfare. And the tribulation from a mere dao affirmation was incapable of harming him. The myriad races could forget about taking advantage of this to attack him.

After devouring both the reward and punishment, a powerful aura erupted from Su Yu's body.

As he looked down from high above, everyone paled with fright. He coldly said, "Tiangu, be obedient and stay in your realm. What can a mere tribulation do to me? A mere dao affirmation. Are you thinking of attacking me like what you did to the other humans?"

Nobody could muster a response.

A mere dao affirmation?

He made it sound so easy.

His dao affirmation was not a simple one. Since he had attracted a tribulation, he had clearly utilized a method other than the Three Body Method. He was not the first to attempt something like this, but most who had attempted the same had died. Even the survivors had only survived with heavy injuries.

But this time...nobody knew what to say anymore. The tribulation had been handled easily. A single bite was all it took. Tiangu was just about to suggest that they join hands and attack if the tribulation could injure him enough. But he could completely forget that plan. Su Yu was completely unharmed.

Then again, dao affirmation was indeed a simple matter for him as his foundation was simply too strong, and he had been fully prepared long before this.

***

Dragon Realm and Fate Realm.

The two newly descended ancient marquises had solemn expressions.

Pen dao!

The current human lord had indeed inherited the legacy of Culture King! They were losing their minds. Culture King's legacy had stayed buried for nine epochs. How did it emerge in this epoch?

Those who had been staying in the Lower Realm were utter idiots! Were they not aware of just how powerful Culture King was? How could they allow Culture King's successor to grow? He had grown into a human lord right under their watch. And now, he had even completed his dao affirmation! These useless fools!

But apart from cursing inwardly, there was nothing they could do. Allied Daofuses were starting to gather around Su Yu. Even Great Zhou King was heading toward him. The myriad races could only attack if they wanted to start a major war immediately.

Great Zhou King, who was on his way to Su Yu, was feeling more and more helpless. No human of this epoch had ever completed a dao affirmation so easily before. The entire process seemed excessively easy for Su Yu, as though he only needed to break some clouds to complete it. Great Zhou King knew very well just how strong one needed to be to accomplish such a feat.

Meanwhile, Su Yu had a wide smile on his face. He could feel very clearly just how different things would be upon dao fusion. He could feel a connection between him and the pen dao. From now onward, he would be able to utilize the power of his dao against his opponents.

"It's quite easy. The reward and punishment are nothing special either. Looks like dao fusion is indeed no big deal. But some of the top experts must have sensed that I am pursuing Culture King's dao, right?"

He was not talking about those in the Lower Realm. Rather, he was referring to those in the Upper Realm. Could anyone sense that he had initiated fusion with Culture King's dao? He was especially curious about those from Control King's lineage.

West Royal Consort had been captured by him, but he was sure there were more people in their lineage.

They had been paying close attention to Culture King's legacy. From Heavenly Seal King to his father and West Royal Consort, all of them had attempted to sever Culture King's legacy. Unfortunately for them, they had failed.

Now that he had successfully initiated a fusion with this forbidden dao, could those in the Upper Realm sense it?

Su Yu looked up with a smile on his face. Perhaps they could sense it.

So would they tremble in fear?

***

Upper Realm.

This was a place with incomparably thick heavenly source qi and power of laws.

Somewhere deserted.

A palace appeared out of thin air. Inside, someone looked up at the sky. An indistinct pen had seemingly appeared. Noticing the pen, the expression of this person changed massively.

"Something went wrong in the Myriad Realms. Culture King's legacy has emerged."

A different voice rang out deep inside the palace, "What happened in the Myriad Realms? What has Zi Yan been doing?"

"From her last message many years ago, she was entering the Death Realm. Perhaps she is still unaware of this matter."

"Zi Yan was very powerful. I left her down there to prevent Culture King's legacy from emerging. Alas, it has still emerged."

The two continued conversing. One sounded furious and helpless. Zi Yan was very strong. With someone so powerful down there, Culture King's legacy shouldn't have been able to appear. Even if she hadn't been paying attention previously, with the dao fusion initiated, she should start paying attention, right?

The voice from deep in the palace said, "Zi Yan should be aware of this now. She will handle it. We wait."

She might have neglected it previously. But it was unlikely that she would continue neglecting it now. After all, an entire pen had appeared in the sky. If Zi Yan was blind to even that, she might as well kill herself in shame.

At that thought, the two calmed down. This wasn't a big problem. Zi Yan was powerful enough to handle this matter. She only needed to put her mind to it.

Culture King should forget about returning!

***

The so-called Zi Yan was none other than West Royal Consort.

At the moment, she was still under layers of suppression. Her sea of willpower was trapped inside a tiny world. She was awake, but she couldn't sense anything outside. With the suppression on her, she couldn't even send her willpower out of this world. Even her dao had been sealed off.

She found this inconceivable. Just what manner of power could seal her to such an extent? What was the current state of the world outside?

"Damn that Su Yu! Why hasn't he contacted me to recruit me? Has he entered seclusion?"

She couldn't help but curse. Without communication, how was she supposed to manipulate Su Yu? To do something, there must be a beginning, right? Now that Su Yu wasn't even bothered to begin, she couldn't do anything.

"Are you not even a tiny bit curious about me?"

West Royal Consort was certain Su Yu wouldn't be able to resist visiting her.

***

At the same time, Su Yu was thinking about West Royal Consort.

He was indeed curious.

What was he curious about? He was wondering if he could locate the others from Control King's lineage through her dao. Perhaps this would be an opportunity for him to wipe them all out?

Through the dao, he could probably locate every single Eternal following that dao.

"I wonder if I can dissect her and study her better. Also, can I dissect a dao?"

With numerous thoughts in his mind, Su Yu started moving toward the Human Realm, ignoring the Daofuses who had appeared around him. He was busy. He had to replace the guardians. He did not have the time to stay and chat with them. He had been away for some time. Had the weapons of the guardians been forged?

After replacing the guardians, he would be able to start a war against the various realms. Of course, he had to wait a bit before that. September needed to reach the Daofuse Realm first, and Great Qin King and Great Xia King needed time to comprehend more of their new dao. He also needed to wait and see if Great Ming King could reach the Daofuse Realm as well.

And upon completing all that, he would be able to launch a war and catch the various realms by surprise.
