Tribulation of Myriad Races-Chapter 560: Mission (1)

Ignoring the sorrowful white civet, Su Yu stepped forth once again and picked up the little furball, who was screaming about something not being yummy anymore.

Other than the ability to devour characters, this little fellow did not seem to possess any other abilities. It couldn't harm one's physical body. Nor could it devour source qi.

With an odd look in his eyes, Su Yu asked, "Little guy, can you grow by consuming characters?"

The little furball merely stared at Su Yu with an aggrieved expression. He sulked and refused to talk. The only thing he wanted was to eat that yummy thing. But he discovered that even though he could smell that thing, he couldn't eat it. He was sad.

After thinking about it, Su Yu asked, "Can you eat character fragments as well?"

There was a fragment room in the Wentan Research Center. That place was filled with character fragments. If he could feed this fellow with those fragments and push this fellow into the Cloudbreach or even the Mountainsea Realm, wouldn't that be crazy?

Why stop at that? What about the Sunmoon or even the Invincible Realm?

Cough, cough. This was mere delusion.

Su Yu couldn't help but recall how the unknown Invincible had attacked Liu Wenyan and company with only some characters.

Hehe. If something similar occurred when this little furball was around, no amount of character would be enough. How many characters would that Invincible have to spare? That would be truly incredible. At that time, the unknown Invincible could basically be treated as a food supplier.

Su Yu looked at the little furball with burning eyes. This little guy was only a ball of fur, but his looks were very misleading. The little guy was actually very useful.

"Can eat...not yummy."

The little furball replied in dispiritedly. Sure, he could eat those things as well, but those things were not yummy. Only the thing in Su Yu's head was yummy.

Su Yu smiled, "Be patient. You're still too weak. Of course you can't eat anything yummy. But when you grow stronger, you will naturally be able to eat lots of yummy food."

That made a lot of sense.

"Just eat more character fragments for now. I'll try to find you some characters. Just grow first. And then, you will be able to start eating the truly delicious stuff."

The two stared at each other. Su Yu smiled, "Think about it. You can follow me. Also, do you have any blood essence? Can you provide me with a drop of your blood essence?"

"Blood essence?"

The little furball shook his head...no, his body. Alas, Su Yu wasn't able to see that the furball was shaking his head. All Su Yu could see was the furball shaking his entire body. So was that a no?

Su Yu was very curious. Since this little fellow was more of a Divine Character than an actual living being, would he have any blood essence? That was hard to determine.

Of course, Su Yu was more curious about whether he had been killed by any furballs before in his dream. If that hadn't happened before, the blood essence of this little fellow would do nothing for him.

Su Yu was also curious about something else. With his current physical strength, he could probably safely consume Skysoar blood essence. What about Cloudbreach blood essence? Would that cause his body to burst apart? But if he only took a single drop, it should be fine, right?

A lot of people had already forgotten how he had defeated Chen Qi back when he had first arrived in the academy.

Initially, he had only consumed blood essence for strength, not cultivation methods or racial abilities. In the past, he had a habit of keeping a drop of blood essence in his mouth as insurance whenever he left home.

As Su Yu thought of all that, he played with the little furball in his hand. After a while, he looked at the suanni. This fellow was a member of a top 100 race and a ninth-stage Skysoar.

With that level of cultivation, his offensive strength would be pretty good. After all, warriors were quite good in terms of pure offensive power. This suanni was an existence capable of facing some Cloudbreach cultivators in battle. It should be fine to swallow a drop of this fellow's blood essence, right?

Su Yu wondered if he should just slaughter this suanni for blood essence. That blood essence might come in handy in his coming trip. The others probably believed that they already saw his limit. That was nonsense. He had not been using any blood essence for combat recently because a need had not arisen. A drop of blood essence would be able to grant him a boost in strength for about two or three minutes.

The suanni was looking at Su Yu with his big eyes when he suddenly felt uneasy. He hurriedly said, "Lord, you would look very cool with me as your mount! Exceptionally cool!"

That look in Su Yu's eyes was very scary. It was as though Su Yu was looking at an art piece. That was normally an expression one would wear when appreciating the corpse of a dead suanni.

"Heh..."

Su Yu laughed and nodded. He said nothing. Well, he could always get Xia Huyou to buy some suanni blood essence for him. He needed to take more blood essence with him for the trip. It would be better if he could increase the variety as well.

He would need more blood essence for more than opening new pages. The blood essence would also come in handy in protecting himself, granting him access to more abilities.

Water Transformation, Metal Transformation, Wood Transformation...

Phasing through earth, flight, concealment...

Too many abilities could be found among the myriad races.

When a single individual gained access to all those abilities, Su Yu would be able to show the world that he might be a Mental Tempering Stage student, but he was more difficult to deal with than a Mountainsea.

In the past, he had not dared to use these abilities as he had too many misgivings. But...he no longer had those misgivings. Racial abilities would serve as an excuse. All the blame would lay on ability blood essence.

As for whether Great Ming would force him to teach them the blood essence production method, he could simply do so before finding a way to flee. It wasn't like they would be able to properly utilize the production method even after learning the steps involved. And even if they could utilize it, they would never be able to reproduce what he could do.

Bai Feng's research on blood essence had yet to reach maturity. Previously, it had only reached the Infinite Strength Realm. Bai Feng had quit at that point to focus on Divine Characters instead.

With numerous thoughts in his mind, Su Yu stopped looking at the suanni and walked away with the little furball in hand. While walking, he said, "I don't need your blood essence anymore. So are you interested in following me?"

"Eat!"

"Stop thinking about food all the time. A lazy bum does not deserve food."

"Then...will work!"

Su Yu smiled, "Would you betray me?"

"Betray? What is that?"

"..."

Su Yu was slightly speechless. He asked, "How old are you?"

"Old?"

The little furball stared at Su Yu in confusion. Su Yu explained, "A month has passed since you were put in the cage. How many months have passed since your birth until now?"

The little furball spent some time calculating before replying, "120 months!"

Ten years. Ten years old? Holy shit. This little guy was a Skysoar, right? Was he really so incredible?

Of course, a lot of divines and devils were born at the Great Strength Realm, allowing them to reach the Infinite Strength Realm at a young age. Some could reach that level at around five or six. Thus, it wouldn't take them long to reach the Skysoar Realm either.

Thus, it honestly wasn't so surprising that some people could reach the Skysoar Realm at ten. But this was only applicable to a small number of major races. The human race was the only exception among the major races with the Source Opening Realm as the starting point.

"Is your race powerful?" Su Yu asked, "You are capable of swallowing second-tier characters. The character you failed to swallow earlier is called a third-tier character."

"I don't know about any of that. I saw my first character not long ago!" The little furball started speaking in excitement, "There are so many yummy things out here! In the past, I didn't know. I had only been eating..."

The little furball tried to use some gestures to show what he had been eating, but he had no limbs to do so. But Su Yu seemed to have guessed something and pointed at a random willpower text for confirmation.

That would be understandable. After all, willpower could be found in willpower texts as well. In this case, was this little guy sustaining himself on willpower?"

"How did you get out there?"

"I ran."

"How many people do you have in your race?"

"Dada, mama, me...nobody else."

Su Yu did not say anything. Bullshit. That was impossible. This little guy was probably completely clueless. This was a very dangerous race.

The moment they started appearing en masse on the Allheaven Battlefield, they would turn into a disaster of all cultural researchers. Then again...that did not matter to him, right? It wasn't like all cultural researchers were good people.

"What's the strength of your dada?"

"Pseudo Emperor."

"..."

Su Yu looked clueless, but the nearby white civet stiffened. When Su Yu looked at the white civet, she nervously said, "Pseudo Emperor...is a term used by some ancient races. For example, the first divines and original devils refer to their Kings as Pseudo Emperors..."

Su Yu maintained his silence.

Holy shit.

This was a much bigger trouble than he thought! Was his grandteacher even aware of this little guy's background? Had his grandteacher kidnapped this little fellow without asking anything?

Pseudo Emperor...Invincible? Someone like that would not be a regular Invincible. Instead, someone like that would be a top existence even among Invincibles. Of course, it was also possible that this was a very weak race. The so-called Pseudo Emperor might not be a proper realm. That was merely an empty title for their ruler.

Perhaps the so-called Pseudo Emperor was only a Mountainsea? Fine. Not even Su Yu himself was convinced of that logic. After all, this little guy was already a Skysoar at this age.

Whatever. That had nothing to do with him. If that Pseudo Emperor was so impressive, he could come into the Human Realm for his child. The human race, with its number of Invincibles, was no pushover.

As they chatted, they arrived at the fragment room. When Su Yu opened the door, he immediately sensed the dense willpower inside meant to preserve the character fragments. The intent of the numerous fragments filled the room.

Su Yu was actually capable of absorbing the power of these fragments as well, but he had been avoiding doing so. There was no need to grow his characters too much and increase the pressure on his sea of willpower. That was something he had intended to do after reaching the Skysoar Realm.

Ignoring the character intent in the air, Su Yu absorbed a tiny bit of willpower in the room. The purity was high, comparable to the willpower in Bai Feng's laboratory. The high-purity willpower in the research center had all been obtained back then for the sake of experiments, dissecting characters, and removing characters from the seas of willpowers of some other humans or non-humans.

It was time for him to absorb all the high-purity willpower in the research center. He was going to leave soon. And his grandteacher and the others had no need for the high-purity willpower. Thus, it was a waste to leave the willpower here.

While Su Yu was absorbing willpower, the little furball's eyes lit up when he saw the fragments in the room. Sure, these weren't as yummy, but they were still food! He shot toward one of the shelves. He easily phased into the shelf. Then, one of the fragments on the shelf vanished.

Su Yu smiled and said, "Work for food. This is a fair exchange. Otherwise, you can return to the cage. What do you think?"

"Ok!"

The little furball replied. Life in the cage was terrible. He had been wanting to leave for a while. Su Yu was the one who had refused to take him out previously. But seeing how easily the little fellow had agreed, Su Yu started worrying.

This little guy was very hard to control. But whatever. If the little fellow really ended up escaping, he would simply report it to some experts. If Hong Tan could capture this little guy once, the others must be able to capture him as well. In any case, this fellow wouldn't kill anyone. He would only eat some characters. Sure, losing characters was scary, but that wasn't as damaging as losing one's life.

Su Yu left the little furball in the room with the fragments and headed to the filter room. It was time to increase the strength of his cultural weapon.

He would allow the weapon to absorb some blood essence before leaving. The weapon was already able to reach the profound-grade some time ago. Su Yu had merely been delaying its growth.
