Chapter 2175: Battle Erupts (2)
Chapter 2175: Battle Erupts (2)
For some reason, Yue Luo's dao of seduction could only turn Su Yu mad. Moments ago, he was still relatively calm. But now, he had gone berserk as he summoned his hammer and attacked madly.
A rain of hammers descended from the sky. Su Yu had gone mad. He was enraged by this woman. He refused to rest before turning her into mincemeat. Yue Luo's expression changed slightly as she cursed inwardly.
She was very powerful, and her seduction power was very powerful as well. The reaction of March and the others was proof of that. Momentary distractions in battle could be fatal. But for some reason, Su Yu reacted very differently to her seduction power.
Even Snow Orchid, a woman, wasn't immune to her seduction. But for some reason, Su Yu was unaffected. This was inconceivable. That was not all. Each time she used her seduction power, Su Yu would react as though she had dug his ancestral graves and go mad. She didn't know what was wrong with Su Yu.
Ahead of them, Fat Ball and the beast fought intensely. The world shook while the two roared repeatedly.
Seeing that an encirclement was starting to form around them again, Su Yu's expression changed. His aura stirred as he roared, "Prepare for self-detonation!"
"..."
Instantly, the powerhouses around them pulled back, including Yue Luo and the others. They had to take this seriously as these bastards had done the same before. They weren't all talk. This was the type of opponent who would annoy everyone they met. The battle had barely started yet they were already trying to self-detonate.
"Run!"
Boom!
Right at that moment, Su Yu's group shot off into the distance. Giant Axe nearly fell as Su Yu dragged him off. He asked with stupefaction, "Are we not self-detonating?"
He had heard about this from the others.
Previously, most people had self-detonated when Su Yu ordered it. Those who had obeyed were with them and those who had disobeyed were not with them. Giant Axe had thought that they would be doing the same thing.
Su Yu was rendered speechless. It must have been hard for someone with his brain to cultivate into a Venerable. How was he supposed to gather more physical body power for their recovery after another round of self-detonation? They were in a different situation. In the previous battle, he made the order to determine friends from foes. He also did that to pave the way for his withdrawal.
But this time, he was here to showcase his strength. What was the point of self-detonation? Then again, the effect of their previous battle could still be seen. Giant Axe, Yue Luo, and the others were all taking him very seriously. Just with a shout, they were able to break the encirclement around them.
"Damn it!"
Yue Luo roared in fury. All of them were furious. What an embarrassment. All of them had withdrawn so easily. Then again, their choice was understandable.
After losing a Venerable and many heavenly kings to Su Yu, everyone was very wary of Su Yu. Others would use self-detonation as a threat, but Su Yu had a reputation of someone who would use self-detonation as a weapon to kill.
***
"Trash."
Deep inside the Chaos Mountain.
Yue Zhan cursed. They had so many powerhouses, yet Su Yu was able to keep pushing forward. What could he call them except trash?
Damn it!
"Yue Hao." Yue Zhen ordered, "Take the body of a chaos beast and assist them in battle."
"Yes!"
Yue Hao appeared. Instead of appearing in his original appearance, he had the appearance of a powerful beast. He departed and flew straight in Su Yu's direction.
***
Behind the Hell Gate.
The cold pair of eyes reappeared. "Yue Zhan, the Holy Lord will not spare you if you mess things up here."
Yue Zhan gnashed his teeth and said, "I know. It's a mere accident, Senior Sister."
"Accident?" Yu Qing said, "A hundred thousand years in wait, and an accident happens right at this moment? What a timing. What a fool."
After countless years of hard work, an accident had happened during the critical moment. Nobody could accept this.
Yue Zhan was furious as well. "It's all because of Su Yu! That was the same lunatic who had attacked us previously and killed Yue Qin. He was also the one who had exposed us to the myriad races."
"Su Yu..." Yu Qing said, "In that case, kill him regardless of the cost. We have enough people to kill him. Tell Yue Luo to spare nothing in their efforts to kill him. The myriad races will have a lot of Venerables, but when I'm out, the two of us are enough to kill them all."
Her willpower rippled out, "Eight-winged, chaos dragon, fight with all your strength."
She was ordering the two beasts to fight. That was not all. More willpower undulations spread out of the gate: "Gather in Chaos Mountain. Kill invaders. The envoy will emerge soon."
The many pairs of eyes behind the gate were sending their orders to the chaos beasts outside.
Su Yu was their target.
***
Right at that moment.
Deep inside chaos.
The tea plant suddenly stirred as she sent a transmission underground, "I think...I just received an order to kill His Majesty and the others."
A large number of powerhouses gathered below her.
Lan Tian asked, "Where is the order coming from?"
"I think...it's the chaos will from behind the Hell Gate."
The tea plant wasn't completely clueless. She was also a part of the chaos race, but due to her clear consciousness, the order had minimal effect on her. Suddenly, roars rang out from the chaotic space. It was as though a powerful ancient chaos beast was awakening.
Lan Tian's expression changed as he hurriedly sent a message to Su Yu. The beings behind the gate were able to control the chaos beasts outside. This had actually happened once before during Su Yu's dao pioneering.
However, the eight-winged tiger had not revealed much so they were still unsure. But now, the tea plant had personally received the order. The chaos will was calling for the chaos beasts outside to attack Su Yu's group.
Roar after roar rang out in the chaotic space. This signified that more powerful beasts might appear to attack Su Yu's group. Should they stop these beasts?
***
Su Yu, who was still approaching the lair of Control King's lineage, suddenly noticed his bracelet shaking. Before long, he received Lan Tian's message. One ought to admit that Lan Tian was very efficient as a communication system. They did not need communication hubs even in chaos. Any message could be sent directly.
After receiving the message, Su Yu looked at the approaching Yue Hao ahead and the approaching Yue Luo behind. Then, he gritted his teeth and transmitted, "Great Bamboo and Snow Orchid. Interested in detonating a dao or two for fun?"
"..."
The two heavenly kings were alarmed.
Su Yu continued, "Fuse into my world after that. For now, I don't suggest that heavenly kings and Venerables fuse into my world, as they won't grow stronger doing so. But it is acceptable if there is a need for it. Detonate your daos and look for similar daos in my world. If your comprehension is sufficient, you can grow straight into a Venerable. Or a fake Venerable, to be specific."
They wouldn't grow stronger, but they wouldn't grow weaker either. They would simply be switching from real daos to Su Yu's daos.
Su Yu did not recommend that the Venerables under him fuse into his world for now. It was pointless as they would grow weaker. But his world had grown enough to accommodate heavenly kings.
As for Heavenbridge, he was unique enough that Su Yu wouldn't request him to switch his dao as well.
Great Bamboo Marquis' voice rang out from the weapon March was holding. "I heed His Majesty's command."
How obedient.
As for Snow Orchid, she had refused such an order before. This time, her eyes flickered as she transmitted, "I obey."
This time, she did not refuse the order. She knew that due to her previous choice, she had yet to truly become a part of Su Yu's faction. Perhaps this was a great chance for her to start anew. The frost dao in Su Yu's world was still masterless.
The frost dao she currently cultivated was the dao mastered by her mother. Thus, it was unlikely that she would be able to grow into a Master of Law through this dao unless her mother were dead. The two heavenly kings agreed readily.
Su Yu wasted no time and transmitted, "Pay attention to my commands. Self-detonate the moment I give the order. Only self-detonate when I say the word detonate alone. Remember?"
"Okay."
The two replied promptly. They were worried that they would get the plan wrong.
Suddenly, Su Yu turned around and roared, "Explode!"
Instantly, Yue Luo and her people stopped. However, Su Yu's group continued rushing away. Nothing happened. They felt humiliated and furious. They had been fooled yet again.
Holy shit!
The axe wielder roared, "Don't stop anymore! They won't self-detonate!"
Damn it!
Each time, they were forced to stop because they were scared of self-detonations. This had happened multiple times, allowing Su Yu's group to escape them repeatedly. This was a terrible feeling.
They were annoyed.
Yue Luo's expression changed repeatedly. Su Yu was playing with them!
She roared, "Kill! Don't stop anymore! Supreme Matron Dragon, Yue Hao, stop them!"
"Explode!"
Once again, Su Yu roared and turned to charge toward Yue Luo's group. His aura stirred, looking like he was really about to self-detonate. And he was not alone. The others were doing the same.
Yue Luo's group felt like this was another lie, but they couldn't resist stopping and even pulling back.
"Hahaha!"
While roaring with laughter, Su Yu turned around again. Yue Luo was losing her mind. She roared with fury, "Nobody is allowed to stop anymore!"
Damn that bastard!
How infuriating.
Su Yu's group was weaker, but they had been pushed back several times through the threat of self-detonations.
***
"Explode!"
When Su Yu roared once again, nobody bothered to stop.
Su Yu cursed, "Are you not worried that we'll explode for real? Damn you! Withdraw or I'll really explode!"
Everyone ignored him.
Fuck!
Do it, then!
Su Yu pointed at the matron dragon and roared, "Move aside, or we'll blast you to death!"
The matron dragon couldn't be bothered to say anything.
It was a mere projection. If Su Yu were going to self-detonate, the target would be the others, not a mere projection like it.
Su Yu threw a punch at the matron dragon. March and the others hurriedly joined him. They were attempting to push the dragon out of their way. But the matron dragon was showing no signs of retreating. It continued slowing them down.
In fact, it had done so several times before, but Yue Luo's group had allowed Su Yu's group to escape several times due to the threat of self-detonation. This time, Yue Luo's group would no longer withdraw. Thus, the matron dragon believed that they would be able to kill them this time.
"Detonate!"
Su Yu roared.
Nobody believed him anymore. But Snow Orchid and Great Bamboo Marquis had been paying close attention to his words. He was saying something different this time. This was a real order.
And next, Great Bamboo Marquis and Snow Orchid snapped their daos. Their daos had been stretched taut for quite a while, so everyone believed that it was still a lie this time.
Rumble!
Instantly, two daos exploded.
"Heavenbridge!"
Heavenbridge Marquis' eyes were wide open. An opportunity had arrived! The matron dragon had been blasted into pieces. Clumps of willpower scattered everywhere. It wasn't dead. This was merely a projection. But there were six gates inside its body. All six gates started shaking violently.
Three of the doors had even cracked. Heavenbridge Marquis seized the opportunity and roared before transforming into a gate. Then, he swallowed the three heavenly king gates. This was his limit. He shouldn't be able to eat more. But looking at the three Venerable gates, he couldn't resist the temptation.
Madness flickered on his face.
He roared, "Ahhhh! Fuck it!"
Boom!
And then, he swallowed a Venerable gate. The other two managed to flee.
Boom!
The four gates struggled violently inside him. The three heavenly kings were instantly suppressed. Massive rumbles rang out. Behind, the foreheads of three heavenly kings exploded as they wailed in pain.
Their Hell Gates had been destroyed. As for the Venerable gate, it belonged to the white-haired powerhouse. His expression changed slightly, and next, his forehead exploded as well.
Finally, the dust settled and Heavenbridge Marquis returned to his humanoid form. When he opened his mouth, a large wave of power leaked out. He was pale, but Su Yu ignored him and grabbed the injured Great Bamboo Marquis and Snow Orchid before tossing them into his mouth. "Leave. Take them back and allow them to fuse with a dao. Send the mountain to Grand Dream as well."
"Take care, Your Majesty!"
Heavenbridge did not dare to wait. He was injured as well, so he needed some space to recover. With a flicker, the gate vanished with the two injured individuals. Meanwhile, Su Yu and the others were attacking the broken pieces of the matron dragon, further breaking it apart. And finally, Fat Ball swallowed the entire clump of willpower.
Without the support of the six gates, the concentrated willpower was nothing but food for Fat Ball. With this, the projection was gone. Su Yu was now three heavenly kings short.
