Chapter 1122: Meeting the Tree Goddess Again

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Su Yu wasn’t pretentious either. Succinctly, he asked, “May I know how many people of the Great Oriental Family are left now?”

The Black Dust Immortal had a grave, aggrieved look on his face. “Only a few thousand.”

Although about ten thousand people had previously fled through the transmission portal, more than half of them had perished due to the excessive extraction of their godly demon power by the transmission portal. Eventually, only a few thousand were left.

“Don’t worry, elders. Please gather the remaining people and prepare to leave the Jiuzhou cavern with me in a few days’ time. I believe that with the distance, the effect of the curse will weaken accordingly.”

“You can grow your scales quietly, and I suppose the Great Oriental Family will be able to recover its strength.”

The two elders were surprised and delighted that Su Yu was willing to take them.

“How... how should the Great Oriental Family repay you for your immense kindness?” The White Dust Immortal cast a look at the silent, sheepish Dongfang Yue who was standing behind them, and she heaved a silent sigh.

She had still stood a chance of marrying Su Yu before this, but now, how could Yue-er be a match for him? He was a married man with a family, which made it even less feasible.

All of a sudden, the White Dust Immortal caught a glimpse of the Five Elements Mountain behind them. The Black Dust Immortal did too.

The two of them exchanged a glance and nodded gently. Despite their years of study, they had never ventured into the mountain’s belly, and the Power of Five Elements of the mountain had not brought them great benefits either.

However, it seemed like Su Yu had benefited greatly from training in the mountain’s belly.

They made a joint decision. This was the most suitable gift they could afford.

“Su Yu, the Great Oriental Family has no affinity with the Five Elements Mountain, but it benefits your training. On behalf of the Great Oriental Family, we are presenting this mountain to you as a gift. We hope you won’t reject it.”

Of course, Su Yu wouldn’t reject it! The Five Elements Mountain was useless to them, but it was a priceless treasure to him!

After a round of insincere refusal, Su Yu took possession of the Five Elements Mountain, much to his pleasure.

Even though this mountain was incapable of shrinking in size, it could be accommodated by the Nine Jade Spiritual Pearl. Therefore, it saved him a great deal of trouble.

Seeing Su Yu take the mountain, the Black and the White Dust Immortals were stunned. This mountain could not be contained by any spaces, not even the spaces created by them as Mortal Fairies.

“This young man even possesses his own portable cavern world. What other treasures would he fall for? I’m afraid that he has even accepted the Five Elements Mountain out of politeness.” As they recalled Su Yu’s refusal, they laughed with bitterness. It seemed like Su Yu really was reluctant...

The Great Oriental Family had been dealt with.

Next, Su Yu had the Severed Fairy Cliff Master and the Ancient Bronze Tree Men to deal with.

After some contemplation, Su Yu used the divine-level transmission portal and traveled to the Northernmost region.

On a mountain cliff that soared into the clouds, Su Yu saw the Severed Fairy Cliff Master, who was recuperating.

“I never thought you would really succeed. It looks like my business deal wasn’t a bad idea after all.” the Severed Fairy Cliff Master laughed.

Su Yu had certainly come to fulfill his promise.

When Su Yu considered the people who had helped him the most in the Ordeal of People, the Severed Fairy Cliff Master was the first on his list.

Without this king of darkness holding the Central Prefecture’s King up for five whole days, history would have been rewritten already.

“In Six days, come to the ruins of the Central Prefecture City, board the ship, and leave.”

Upon hearing that, hints of excitement gleamed in the Severed Fairy Cliff Master’s eyes. Plaintively, he sighed, “Finally, I can leave the Jiuzhou cavern.”

Su Yu caught a hint of hatred stealthily flickering across his pupils.

It seemed like the Severed Fairy Cliff Master hadn’t come to Jiuzhou with simple intentions.

“Alright, farewell then,” Su Yu said.

The Severed Fairy Cliff Master called out to him, “Hold on! I’ve brought Wuxie back; do you want to meet up with her?”

The little devil? Su Yu smiled gently. “She’s back from the Desolate Evil Jungle? She’s not angry with me, is she?”

He had left the little devil in the Desolate Evil Jungle that day and had told her that he would come back for her after finishing his errands. Who would have expected such twists and turns?

He had almost forgotten about her. With that little lady’s temper, she must be gritting her teeth in rage right now.

“Erm...The girl, yep, she only carved your name on a tablet, and prayed every day. Yes, she must be praying.” The Severed Fairy Cliff Master forced a smile.

Su Yu’s lips twitched. “That must be a memorial tablet, right? She’s cursing me, isn’t she?”

Feeling amused, Su Yu thought for a moment before retrieving the Glittering Jewel Fairy Scepter. It was covered in cracks and seams and could be used one more time before becoming completely decrepit.

“This is the Glittering Jewel Fairy Scepter that I previously promised to get for Wuxie. I hope it helps her resolve the medicinal effect of the Spiritual Grass of Immortality.”

The Severed Fairy Cliff Master’s eyes shone as he accepted it, gratified. “Thanks a lot, Master Su. I hope it brings helps my girl.”

In fact, how could he not know that the medicinal effect of the Spiritual Grass of Immortality wasn’t something that could be simply resolved by this fairy artifact? But it wouldn’t necessarily be useless, it was always worth a try.

“Then I’ll excuse myself.” Su Yu tore open the Void and left.

The next moment, Su Yu arrived in the Desolate Evil Jungle, directly emerging in the depths of the valley.

Yinmu hurried forward immediately. He was worried about a foreign invasion. When he found out that it was Su Yu, he exclaimed, “You accomplished the Peak Mortal Fairy state so quickly? Incredible, incredible!”

The way he strove to make his stiff face look surprised was truly hilarious.

The Desolate Evil Jungle had no access to news from the outside world, so he knew nothing about what had happened out there recently.

“I’d like to meet the Tree Goddess and see if my current cultivation will be able to help her,” Su Yu said. Last time, he had only been a petty fairy. Now that he was a Peak Mortal Fairy, he wasn’t certain if he could move that long spear that was concentrated with Evil Fatal Energy.

Yinmu nodded, pleased.

He came to the underground lava once again. A young, golden-yellow tree grew amidst the lava.

Su Yu’s arrival instantly jolted the remnant soul of the Tree Goddess clinging on the small tree. But based on Su Yu’s knowledge now, it should be called a remnant of godly spirit left behind by the Tree Goddess.

“Open the divine realm,” Su Yu said.

The young tree opened its eyes. Seeing that Su Yu had come, it was elated. “How many hundreds of years have passed? Or thousands? You have achieved such cultivation?”

Being a state of deep dormancy, she had not a single clue about the passing of time.

Su Yu chuckled bitterly and did not say anything. When the divine realm opened, he entered immediately.

Just like last time, a beautiful young woman was sitting on a throne. She had a fine layer of emerald muslin covering her willowy, dainty body, and she was peacefully and adorably asleep.

A long spear had pierced her abdomen. The spear was covered in dense Evil Fatal Energy, which penetrated her body from front to back.

With Su Yu’s current eyesight, he could clearly sense that the inside of the Tree Goddess’ body was filled with the Evil Fatal Energy. Luckily, the godly spirit in her body was continuously generating godly energy, keeping out the Evil Fatal Energy.

The Evil Fatal Energy belonged to a force of the deity level. The Milky Way Star Sand did not have its artifact spirit, and could only unleash less than one-tenth of its power. It was thus unable to absorb the Evil Fatal Energy.

She could only rely on an external influence to extricate the long spear by force.

Su Yu stepped forward and grasped the long spear. The Evil Fatal Energy on the long spear began roiling turbulently all of a sudden and surged into Su Yu’s body.

Su Yu dared not be reckless. He gathered his Mortal Fairy power and firmly defended himself against the Evil Fatal Energy, barely resisting it. But it wouldn’t last long!

Keeping a tight grip on the long spear, Su Yu applied great force and pulled it outwards abruptly.

Creak!

With a dull noise, a portion of the long spear was forcefully removed.

The long spear that had initially penetrated the Tree Goddess’ body was only partly jammed in her abdomen now.

The godly spirit of the Tree Goddess was overwhelmed with joy and surprise. “It’s out, it’s out!”

Su Yu was speechless. It wasn’t like he was giving birth to a baby!

However, when Su Yu attempted another pull, the long spear did not budge. It couldn’t be retracted further.

“Young man...long time no see.” Suddenly, a bleak voice sounded from inside the young woman’s body. She was still in a state of deep sleep, yet she could speak.

The Tree Goddess had awakened!

Compared with her intermittent speech last time, the Tree Goddess could speak very fluently this time. It seemed like her consciousness had awakened thoroughly!

Finally, after some fluttering of her eyelashes, those eyes that had been closed for countless ages opened slowly,

Her grorgouse emerald eyes were glimmering with bright, glorious brilliance.

With her youthful, exuberant appearance, she exuded an inexplicable vigor and vitality. Just one look at those eyes would chase away the dark clouds in one’s heart.

Su Yu knew that this was the aura of the Divine Path naturally emanated by deities. It could easily influence the cognition of the people around them. Therefore, he acted right away, guarding his surroundings with Mortal Fairy’s Strength.

“I can finally see you, young man.” The young woman began speaking slowly. Her voice was melodious and pleasant, like a graceful flute.

She scrutinized Su Yu with her bright, beautiful eyes, and her lips curved into a gentle smile. “So this is what you look like. Last time, when my consciousness woke temporarily, I could not sense the concrete entities around me.”

“Hence, when I fell into a deep sleep, I kept thinking what kind of person you are, what race you are of, how you look.”

Su Yu dared not look into her eyes. With indifference, he said, “Sorry for letting you down, Tree Goddess.”

“No, judging with the eyes of a God, you have a beautiful appearance, I like it a lot.” The Tree Goddess wasn’t stingy with her compliments.

Su Yu was slightly embarrassed. This Tree Goddess was indeed forthright. He thought for a while, and said, “The continent has shifted, and the Jiuzhou cavern is about to become barren.”

“I’m here to inform you that six days from now, I will take you and your people to board the ship, enter the galactic world, and leave this place. That’s if your people are willing to leave.”

The Tree Goddess rubbed her temples with her fair fingers, and said, “So that is it. When I was asleep, I felt someone tampering with the ley lines of the Jiuzhou continent. So, it turns out that the entire continent is about to be shifted. If that’s the case, am I going to be homeless soon?”

When she spoke, her emerald, enchanting eyes were staring at Su Yu, glistening.

Honestly speaking, the last thing Su Yu wanted to do was to take the Tree Goddess into the Nine Jade Spiritual Pearl.

With the Tree Goddess’ sensorium, the Supreme Growth Soil wouldn’t slip under her radar. As a deity of the wood line, the Supreme Growth Soil would be too alluring of a temptation to her.

He couldn’t guarantee that she wouldn’t do something overboard, like claiming the Nine Jade Spiritual Pearl as her own.

As a deity, she wouldn’t be that shameless, would she?

Furthermore, the long spear in her abdomen hadn’t been fully extracted, so she couldn’t possibly be so audacious.

“Erm...I have a miniature cavern world, but I’m not sure if Tree Goddess and your people would be willing to rough it...”

“I’d like to!” the Tree Goddess replied without the slightest bit of hesitation. Smilingly, she said, “Wherever you take me, I’m willing to go!”

Looking at the Tree Goddess, who made no effort to act humble or gracious, Su Yu held back the words on the tip of his tongue. Intuition told him that this Tree Goddess had a personality that did not match her temperament.

“Fine, but my cavern world is rather small, and I’m afraid that it can’t accommodate too many of your people, and your Original Form...”

“None of that matters!” The Tree Goddess waved her petite hand. If she wasn’t still nailed to the throne, she would have stood up and started giving orders. “We’re so close! Just leave the small matters to me. Give me a moment.”

We are not close!

Chapter 1123: Stage One All Creations

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Looking at the goddess who was engrossed in performing her sorcery, Su Yu was truly speechless...So what about her self-restraint as a goddess? And her decorum? What was the matter with this bold, carefree and neighborly Tree Goddess?

Su Yu felt that the enchanting imagination he had about an elegant, gentle, and reserved Tree Goddess had gone down the drain in an instant.

“Hey, young man, I’m done!” The Tree Goddess simply weaved several signs and declared good-humoredly.

So fast? Su Yu reached out to detect beyond the divine realm, and his lips twitched.

Was there any trace of underground lava? Where were the Ancient Bronze Tree Men? Even the surface of the land was scraped off, let alone the trees, leaving behind a humongous, profound pit that was ten thousand feet deep.

Even the Original Form of the Ancient Bronze Tree God, the boundless, gargantuan tree whose roots covered the entire underground domain had disappeared without a trace.

All that was left of the Desolate Evil Jungle in the past now was a small, golden-yellow tree that was suspended in the Void.

“Where are they?” Su Yu questioned with surprise.

The young girl blinked, and replied with a look that seemed as if she was looking at an idiot, “Of course back into my cavern world, where else do you think they could be?”

Erm...

Su Yu wasn’t sure whether to criticize.

“Alright, take me away now.” The Tree Goddess did not treat herself as a guest lodging under another person’s roof at all. Instead, she was like a haughty pet, hurrying Su Yu to bring her back home quickly.

Su Yu’s mind was cluttered. He left the divine realm and withdrew the small golden-yellow tree in the air into the Nine Jade Spiritual Pearl.

The moment he placed it inside, Su Yu’s soul attached in the Nine Jade Spiritual Pearl was instantly startled by a shriek of surprise.

“Ah! So much Supreme Growing Soil, wahahaha, I’m rich now! From now on this place will be my home, I’ll fight against whoever tries to evict me!”

“Wow! The Penta-colored Butterfly of Chaos! It looks like it’s worth an awful lot, how about making it into a specimen?”

“Hey, the little ghost girl over there, serve me tea! What, how dare you refuse? Don’t go, are you bullying me for not being able to stand? Humph!”

...

As he heard the chaos and commotion going on inside the Nine Jade Spiritual Pearl, Su Yu’s face darkened. Was that the king of some mountain that had run down from some bandits’ den?

Right when Su Yu was about to return to the Central Prefecture, the Tree Goddess’s voice sounded in his ears, “Young man, you have to careful with the curse imprint on you.”

Su Yu was slightly afraid. Before his demise, the Central Prefecture’s King had crafted a curse with all of his Godly Demonic Power and imprinted it on Su Yu’s chest.

Due to the nature of the Godly Demonic Power, even the Milky Way Star Sand failed to remove it.

“The origin of the Godly Demonic Power seems to be a terrific demonic God, if he finds you by trailing this imprint, you’ll die really fast,” the Tree Goddess taunted.

Su Yu asked, “Isn’t this curse used to harm my Original Form?”

“Of course not, this is an identification imprint crafted from the Godly Demonic Power, as long as you’re present in a certain area around the demonic God, he’ll be able to sense your presence.”

Su Yu was dispirited, he asked in a deep voice, “From how far away can he sense this imprint?”

“Not far, perhaps from half a galaxy away, unfortunately, you’re within his detectable area,” the Tree Goddess gloated, “I think he’s on his way here for you.”

What? Su Yu’s face became solemn all of a sudden!

“But rest assured, I have sealed up your imprint already. Unless he’s face to face with you, he won’t be able to sense your presence,” the Tree Goddess added.

Su Yu’s glanced at it with his Transparent Eye and did not see the imprint with the demon skull. It was concealed by a piece of a golden leaf.

When did she do it? He did not notice it at all! Su Yu could not help but feel inwardly awed.

Even for a Mortal Fairy at his Peak, when he was standing before a deity, even ones that couldn’t stand, he would be just like a vulnerable infant?

“Yep, the chest muscles are sturdy, I’m just not sure if it’s sturdy down there too,” a voice ridiculed.

Su Yu’s face went red, and he gritted his teeth in rage. “You are a...scum among people...among trees!”

Peals of laughter that sounded like tinkling bells answered him.

——

Upon returning to the Central Prefecture in a despondent mood, Su Yu assessed his current plight once again.

The father of the Central Prefecture’s King, a deity who was called terrific by another deity, had cast his eyes upon him. Despite having the Tree Goddess, oh, the female scum, covering up for him, it was still extremely precarious.

On his journey back, Su Yu’s cultivation finally slid from the level of Peak Mortal Fairy and was further regressing at an ever faster speed.

It would eventually return to the initial cultivation, ninth-grade fairy.

Apart from that, there was no big deal.

All he needed to do was quietly wait for six days, the day the continent relocated, and he could board the ship and leave.

What Su Yu didn’t know was, his accidental move had raised a considerable commotion in the galaxy.

In the vast, desolate and dark galaxy, countless wild beasts roamed, devouring all living creatures that walked out from the cavern world.

Outside the Jiuzhou cavern world, a small, fiery red boat floated in silence.

There were two people on board. One of them of a youth who had entered Jiuzhou to enforce the law with the arrogant law enforcers, who had a fair complexion and an air of elegance and politeness.

At the moment, he was sitting on the boat with his face full of sorrow, as he hung his head low and stared at the body of the arrogant youth.

The soul was gone, leaving behind an empty shell of the body.

“Meng Ke, have you guys encountered any powerful individuals in the Jiuzhou cavern world?” Opposite to him sat a glum-faced, middle-aged man clad in a hemp garment, his cultivation had attained the terrifying fourth state of Mortal Fairy!

Meng Ke said, “Commander, I’ve returned immediately upon receiving your order, I grabbed the soul of the Withered Bones Demonic God and teleported back on the boat.”

“I have not investigated the strong men of the Jiuzhou cavern world in-depth, but along the way of capture, I have indeed sensed the presence of several Mortal Fairies, with the highest cultivation among them being only the second state of Mortal Fairy.”

The middle-aged man shook his head in equanimity. “Impossible, even if besieged by many second-state Mortal Fairies, Qin Kuo wouldn’t have escaped even with his soul. In the Jiuzhou cavern world, there must be powerful individuals at the absolute peak who are stronger than I am!”

Meng Ke was stupefied. “What makes you say so? In that Jiuzhou cavern world, deities have perished for ten thousand years, the living creatures in it live and die on their own. Theoretically speaking, it should be getting weaker and weaker, how could there be entities with cultivation above you?”

The middle-aged man sighed. “While you crossed worlds and executed your mission, I sensed the two undulation waves of Peak Mortal Fairies. Despite their faintness due to the isolation of the cavern world, it can’t be wrong! Even Qin Kuo’s soul did not escape. He has most likely fallen into the hands of the two Peak Mortal Fairies.”

“Hiss...In such a declined cavern world, Peak Mortal Fairies still exist?” Meng Ke gasped lightly. He felt fortunate that while enforcing laws in Jiuzhou, he had kept a very low profile. Otherwise, he would have roused the wrath the two Peak Mortal Fairies. Qin Kuo was the best lesson.

The middle-aged man cast a cold glance into the dark depths of the galaxy and sneered. “Why do you think so few of the dozens of boats hidden in the vicinity when we came are left then? They were all frightened off by the two undulation waves of the Peak Mortal Fairies!”

That was also the reason the man had delivered an urgent message to summon Meng Ke back.

The seemingly depraved Jiuzhou cavern world was, in fact, a swamp with giant crocodiles lying in ambush!

“But what about Qin Kuo? Perishing in the process of enforcing laws as a law enforcer, we can’t absolve from the responsibility as his colleagues. Worse still, he came from the Qin Family,” Meng Ke said.

The middle-aged man heaved a deep sigh. “What more can we do? I have asked for instructions from the Senluo law enforcers who are the nearest to this place. They’ll deal with the matter. We just have to observe quietly.”

Upon hearing about the Senluo law enforcers, the muscles on Meng Ke’s face shuddered.

The law enforcers of the alliance were divided into many categories, and most were like them, whose primary mission was to eradicate the infiltrating demons. Anyone among them as a powerful individual, who led a couple of slightly weaker ones in their execution of a mission.

However, a small minority of law enforcers had unique identities, who were in charge of other unique missions.

An example being the Senluo law enforcers, who were emissaries that overrode the ordinary law enforcers. Their mission was to handle emergencies, and they had the power to take charge of any missions of the law-enforcing squads, and punished the squad members who broke the rules, even if it meant acting first and reporting later!

The ordinary law enforcers were kept silent out of fear for this particular law-enforcing team.

“Very, very well, let them handle the matter,” Meng Ke said. He caught a glimpse of the fine drops of nervous sweat on the middle-aged man’s forehead.

——

Su Yu, who was quietly training, had revived five people on the first day. That was the limit of the Divine Palm of Life.

They were Gang Dalei, An Yurou, and her pupil, Zi Donglai, and his daughter, respectively.

On the second day, it was the Fengming Cabinet Mistress, Long Juexin, Lin Yunhe, Qiu Ningshui, and Elder Liao.

On each subsequent day, Su Yu would revive a batch of people.

Until the sixth day, he had revived 30 people, all of his old friends in the past had come back to life.

It was the day Su Yu felt most satisfied throughout the six days.

If only he had acquired the reviving ability earlier, Revered Master Li Guang in the past could have been revived, too, couldn’t he?

Su Yu observed Guang Dalei closely for a while. Su Yu was befuddled that apart from his golden skeleton, there was nothing unique about him.

After the revival, Su Yu sent them to the Zhenlong City, and it raised a massive commotion.

How did the dead imperial figures come back to life? Despite their stupefaction, they understood the privileged power of being a Peak Mortal Fairy.

At their level, Peak Mortal Fairies were totally out of their reach. After all, they were extremely mysterious figures.

Having set down the heavy rock in his heart, only did Su Yu have the mood to check on his own condition.

After six full days, Su Yu’s cultivation had deteriorated to Stage One All Creations.

He had retained this state for an entire day and had not undergone any change and was just pondering about it.

“Hehe, brat, congratulations, you have pulled through the Three-Nine Ordeals, and have completely skipped the Almighty levels,” the long-gone voice of the Evil God sounded in his mind.

Su Yu was taken aback. “The Three-Nine Ordeals are over? Impossible, there are three more days until the ordeal of relationships! How could it have finished in advance?”

“Should be the girl who had a crush on you, since the ordeal has manifested upon her, and she has left, the ordeal has gone by itself,” the Evil God blabbered.

Su Yu was in deep thoughts. “Will ordeals disappear on their own?”

The Evil God shook its head. “Of course ordeals won’t disappear, I only said that it had left you, I did not say that it disappeared.”

Su Yu gasped in shock and terror. “You’re saying that the ordeal has been shifted onto Xia Jingyu?”

“That’s the only explanation.” The Evil God had an envious look on its face. “It’s difficult enough to find a woman who will be infatuated with you and even risk her life for you, but you have two of such women, what a blessed man you are.”
