Chapter 2378: Scary (1)

Outside the three gates.

Upper Realm.

Su Yu was busy repairing his world and reconnecting the broken daos.

Too many powerhouses had detonated themselves to attack his world previously. Despite Divine Pseudo Emperor's help and Radiant King's efforts, over a hundred of daos had still broken.

Many of the daos in Su Yu's world were still weak. They could be easily broken. This was where he was weaker than Human Emperor. In his world, the stronger daos could be as strong as tier-one daos. But the weaker daos were only Daofuse daos. No, there were even some Eternal daos among them.

In comparison, the daos in Human Emperor's world were quite similar in strength, even if the total number was lower.

***

Amid the void.

Su Yu was seated cross-legged as numerous daos swirled around him. He was repairing them one after another.

To the side, Lan Tian was observing in silence while helping with the occasional dao. With his many clones, Lan Tian had comprehended quite a lot of daos as well.

However, he was more akin to a weaker version of Su Yu. Several of Su Yu's daos were quite powerful. Meanwhile, Lan Tian's daos were all weak. Even his strongest dao was not at the level of a Master of Law.

Therefore, he could only contend against some weak Masters of Laws, but not the stronger ones at the second or third tiers. He continued observing in silence as Su Yu repaired the various daos.

After a while, Su Yu asked, "Anything on your mind?"

Lan Tian said, "Your Majesty, you can consider a career as a weaver in the future. You're weaving these daos very well."

Su Yu chuckled.

He continued working on the daos without looking at Lan Tian. As he worked, he said, "The crazy Lan Tian is no longer crazy."

That sank Lan Tian into thought.

Su Yu continued, "My world is chaining you down."

Lan Tian laughed, "It's not that serious, Your Majesty."

"No." Su Yu said, "My world is incomplete. It is not the River of Time. I don't have enough daos, and my daos are too weak. Your dao pioneering was so difficult and caused such a big disturbance. I can't think of anyone who has caused such a big scene when pioneering their dao.

"But even as the others are slowly reaching the second and third tiers, you're still stuck at the fourth tier. And you're actually one of the weaker tier-fours."

Lan Tian smiled and said, "I don't rely on my combat strength."

"Wrong. We live in an era where combat strength is everything." Su Yu said, "You have two options here. First, try to reconnect to the River of Time. The river can provide you with more power. Second, you can create your own world."

Lan Tian's heart thumped. Su Yu continued, "You can even use me as a point of reference when creating your world. This is not feasible for the others. I won't encourage it either. Creation might not necessarily be good for everyone. But you have a great chance of succeeding."

Lan Tian sank into thought.

Su Yu said, "I suggest the second option. I can give you some support as well. You can consider this a separation, but you won't leave empty-handed.

"You can leave with the majority of the power from the daos you're fused with here. You won't be starting from scratch. As for the foundation, consider the Heavenly Hunt Index. It's quite a powerful treasure as well.

"I can also get Human Emperor to support you with some other daos. You can also strip some from the river.

"You know almost everything I know. Maintain a balance, weave the daos together, form a closed loop...I only succeeded because you used yourself as the test subject for me. Thus, you should know this better than me."

Lan Tian said nothing.

Su Yu glanced at him and said, "In truth, I hope to see everyone with their own path instead of following me blindly. My world will weaken slightly with your departure, but not by much."

Su Yu sighed and said, "My world has been chaining both you and Principal Wan down. My world is still too weak and incomplete. It is not comparable to the River of Time. Your talents are wasted here."

Back when Lan Tian pioneered his dao, he created a massive disturbance that shocked the entire Myriad Realms. Even Human Emperor sensed the disturbance from afar. The others had been growing repeatedly by focusing on specific daos in Su Yu's world. But Lan Tian was still stuck.

A lot of their core members had reached the third tier with Su Yu's help. But Lan Tian did not have a single dao at the level of a Master of Law. In a way, he was similar to Su Yu. He was cultivating too many daos.

Perhaps the two could complement each other and grow together, but they did not have the time for that. At the moment, only one of them could reap the benefits of having both cultivating the same world.

Su Yu could not hand all the daos in his world to Lan Tian. As such, the best option was for Lan Tian to create his own world.

Su Yu sighed and said, "A pity that I lack generic dao power of high purity. With something like that, I would be able to rapidly strengthen and stabilize my world."

The dao power from chaos or the river had to be stripped and processed bit by bit. Time was required for these sources to show considerable results. It could take thousands or even tens of thousands of years.

There was nothing Su Yu could do about that. As such, the best option was to kill and snatch the daos of others. But even that was not going to be sustainable.

Su Yu looked at Lan Tian and said, "I suggest that you create your world in secret. I'll provide cover for you. I'll also think of a way to send the Secret Guard into your world. This will provide me with a separate trump card."

Su Yu continued, "This is the best time for it. My world is still undergoing recovery. Nobody will notice your departure. On any other day, the disturbance caused by the withdrawal of your dao power will be too noticeable. But my world is currently unstable. The disturbance you cause will only be one of many."

This was why Su Yu was making this suggestion now. His world was already in chaos due to the instability. Lan Tian could withdraw undetected. Of course, Heavenly Overseer Marquis, the luck spirit of this world, should be able to sense it. But that didn't matter.

Suddenly, Lan Tian spoke with the tone of a bitter lover, "Your Majesty, are you tossing me aside?"

Su Yu was left speechless.

He gave Lan Tian a long stare before asking, "Do you want to experience what it's like to be under assault of your own daos?"

Lan Tian said with the same bitter tone, "Sure. Whatever Your Majesty desires."

"..."

Su Yu couldn't be bothered to keep arguing with this madman. No threat would work on him.

Thus, he asked again, "Cut the crap. Are you interested? As one of the most talented of our era, are you not interested in giving it a try?"

"You're talking about creation..." Lan Tian said, "And you're even sending the Secret Guard over. What if all of them become like me after joining my world?"

"..."

Su Yu laughed and said, "Just don't deliberately create a mess."

Lan Tian thought about it and said, "If I'm really doing this, I don't want to create a completely independent world. I want to latch on to the River of Time and take root there. I'll create countless holes there. All life will serve as the foundation of my world. With one hole per dao, I'll rapidly grow my world by feeding on the river.

"But I'll have to trouble Your Majesty for this. I need someone to help dig these holes and weave the myriad daos for me."

Madness flickered in Lan Tian's eyes as he added, "Your Majesty...I wish to...create my world in the Myriad Realms."

Su Yu stared silently. Since he was latching onto the River of Time, the world would naturally be in the Myriad Realms. Was there a point in mentioning that?

But Lan Tian's madness intensified as he laughed and said, "Your Majesty, I will create another Myriad Realms. I will punch a hole through each realm. I will create countless clones and pioneer a different dao per realm before bringing them all together to form my world."

Finally, Su Yu's expression changed.

Lan Tian asked with the same madness in his eyes, "What are your thoughts, Your Majesty? The various realms were created by the various peak powerhouses of the past. They weren't true Creators, but each realm was created with a different dao as the foundation.

"I intend to dig a hole through every one of these daos. Your Majesty, each realm in the Myriad Realms has a foundational dao. Not even you can extract the power from these daos or destroy them. Am I right?"

Su Yu thought about it and answered, "I can damage them, but I can't fully destroy them. Some of them aren't even the original daos. They are mere projections. For example, the ancestors of the immortals, devils, and divines are probably all inside the Heaven Gate. Their daos should have migrated in there as well."

Lan Tian grinned and said, "That might not necessarily be the case. Since they are inside the gate, is it possible that they have something left outside? That way, they can rapidly complete their fusion of yin and yang after leaving the gate.

"As powerful pioneers who had created their own realms, they must have their own trump cards. Since they intend to return, how could they leave before setting up some contingencies?

"I believe there are more secrets to the foundations of the various realms. We have yet to fully explore the opportunities within the Myriad Realms.

"Therefore, I wish to create a real All-life World."

Su Yu frowned and said, "Countless clones, a dao per realm, and connecting all these daos to form your world?"

"Yes!"

Lan Tian grinned, "I wouldn't have mentioned this if Your Majesty hadn't suggested it. This is too difficult for me to complete alone. Since Your Majesty is suggesting that I do this, I'll have to trouble you with it."

Su Yu sank into silence.

How outrageous.

This guy was basically telling him to open countless holes in the various daos and weave countless daos together. Each Lan Tian would control one hole. And as all the clones came together, the All-life World would take form.

The so-called All-life World...was essentially creating another layer within the Myriad Realms.

This idea...

Su Yu grimaced and said, "That was a joke. Lan Tian, I think you should remain in my world."

Lan Tian grinned and nodded, "Sure."

But Su Yu merely sighed helplessly. He was the one who had suggested this. He had not expected that Lan Tian would take the chance to make such an outlandish demand.

Su Yu sank into thought. Lan Tian was truly mad. His idea was far crazier than what Su Yu could even imagine. But for some reason, Su Yu was starting to wonder if Lan Tian would actually surpass him in the end.

While rubbing his chin, Su Yu said, "The difficulty of your dao pioneering was far greater than usual. And now that you're creating your world, you're trying to be completely different again. Why do I feel like you're the actual main character of the Myriad Realms?"

That was true.

This fellow's dao pioneering was extremely difficult, but the path he picked for his creation would be far harder than that. This was a feat Lan Tian could never complete alone.

Lan Tian beamed and said, "As the saying goes, a rising tide lifts all boats. Since Your Majesty is now strong and experienced enough to help, it is only natural that people like us will benefit slightly from this."

Was this guy sure he was benefiting slightly? No, not slightly. He was definitely benefiting massively.

After some thought, Su Yu said, "It's very difficult, but it might be doable. I don't have enough energy and time to do this alone, but I am not the only Creator around. That guy has completed his creation long ago. He should know a lot about this as well."

Su Yu grinned, "Let's hire him for a job."

Helpers were required for this task.

Not just anyone could help with this. But two Creators should do. With the support of two Creators, the chances of success would be far higher.

Lan Tian asked, "Will this work?"

"Of course." Su Yu said, "This is also a part of his responsibility, right? He's basically a high-class babysitter. He can only blame himself for choosing this path."

The two laughed.

True.
