Poof!
Half a day later, with a dull thud, a bloody hole appeared on Dongfang Tianfeng's forehead. With a strange, confused look in her eyes, she turned into a puff of smoke and dissipated.
Only Su Yu and an adorable little girl were left in the huge martial tower.
"Sir, your strength is unparalleled, overwhelming the world! Twenty thousand challengers couldn't stop you alone. "Shengge looked delighted.
"When did you learn to flatter?" Su Yu clapped his hands and picked up the silver pearls scattered on the ground, as well as the Heavenly Orchid Silver Bamboo Sword.
Dongfang Tianfeng was the last one. After killing her, all the challengers were destroyed.
The process wasn't as easy as Shengge had described.
Although the virtual shadows' combat experience and reaction time were almost zero, some of them still posed a challenge to Su Yu.
For example, Bing Wuxin's Undying Sword Body was extraordinary, and Su Yu had to deal with her with all his might.
Next was Bi Lingtian!
This person was rather odd. When they fought, his techniques and treasures were sloppy and ordinary, and there was nothing special about him.
However, he had learned a lot of things, and he was proficient in at least a hundred martial techniques.
When fighting him, Su Yu felt like he was being targeted, and the time spent fighting him was extremely long!
"I wonder where Bi Lingtian got his martial techniques from!" Su Yu couldn't help but be surprised. He thought that with the power of time, it would be far easier for him to cultivate martial techniques than others. However, the fact that he had more than a hundred techniques with him, and all of them were legendary techniques, was astounding!
Su Yu only knew one person who had a hundred techniques, and that was Xia Jingyu!
However, Xia Jingyu was from the mysterious divine lady tribe, and her innate comprehension was superior to that of humans.
What was going on with Bi Lingtian?
"This Bi Lingtian is very mysterious. Besides, judging from the fight between the virtual shadows, he obviously has a trump card that he hasn't shown yet."
After a round of fighting, Su Yu put Bi Lingtian on the list of people he had to be wary of.
Finally, there was Dongfang Tianfeng, a rather mysterious woman.
At first, Su Yu didn't know what the name Dongfang Tianfeng meant. However, after interacting with the challengers from the foreign regions, how could he not know where the Dongfang family name came from?
The Great Oriental Family, the world's only family.
The most ancient family of the continent, a mysterious family with a longer history than the current continent.
No one knew how long the Great Oriental Family had existed or how many years they had experienced.
The only thing he knew was that the Great Oriental Family had Mortal Fairies and Supreme Venerables in the past generations, and there were even two Supreme Venerables in the current generation, which had shaken the entire continent.
The Eastern Continent had completely fallen into the hands of the Dongfang Family.
How could Su Yu not know such a colossal being?
When fighting Dongfang Tianfeng, Su Yu was fully prepared.
But the result was unexpected.
With the help of illusions, Sheng Ge's sneak attack, and the Heavenly Orchid Silver Bamboo Sword, he easily won.
Compared to what he had imagined, Dongfang Tianfeng was much weaker. In fact, she was far weaker than Bing Wuxin!
"This woman is unusually low-key," Su Yu mused.
From the way the virtual shadow imitated, only Theurgy and treasures that had been used before would be imitated by the world of the martial disaster.
With the trials of the hundred-story Martial Pagoda, it was believed that the vast majority of martial artists would bring out their trump cards.
Dongfang Tianfeng was the only one who did not display many powerful techniques, so the virtual image she imitated was exceptionally weak.
"Heh, the girl next door … You're quite a schemer." Su Yu chuckled.
Looking around, Su Yu said placidly, "All the virtual shadows have been destroyed, and the martial disaster is over. It's time to leave the illusory world. There's an even more troublesome disaster of beasts waiting outside!"
— —
The outside world.
All the challengers maintained their last posture before the arrival of the martial disaster, motionless. Some held their swords, some whispered into each other's ears, some smiled confidently, and some were drenched in nervous sweat.
It was as if time had frozen on the entire scene.
Only one person stood out from the rest.
Glancing back at the challengers behind her, Han Fei's expression flickered with determination.
In front of her, eight pitch-black blazing suns sealed off the eight doors.
Outside the doors, strange and horrifying roars could be heard, and the demonic energy was shocking!
Among them, there was no lack of the aura of All Creations demonic beasts!
Intuitively, Han Fei could even sense an unusually dangerous demonic energy hidden among the demonic beasts.
That demonic energy had secretly locked onto her.
This was the disaster of beasts!
Half a day after the martial disaster arrived, the disaster of beasts arrived just as scheduled, with a gap of only two hours.
The beast yard opened wide, and the demonic beasts that had been living and breeding there since ancient times swept across the fairyland!
A large group of demonic beasts sensed the challengers in the martial pagoda and headed straight for the place, like a great army bearing down on the border.
Led by two Stage One All Creations demonic beasts, a thousand Almighty and a hundred thousand fairy demonic beasts.
Such a large group of demonic beasts attacked in the form of a tidal wave. The magnificent scene was comparable to the black beast tide that occurred once every century on the continent!
This beast tide could not be stopped by any human!
Han Fei sensed the arrival of the martial disaster. After resolving it easily with the Heavenly Demonic Black Sun, she faced the massive beast tide head-on.
Fortunately, the indestructible martial pagoda acted as a defense, and Han Fei guarded the eight entrances. She could hold off the beast tide by herself.
However, it was only a stopgap measure.
The beast tide did not know fatigue. Again and again, it organized huge groups of beasts to attack. Even though the beasts that charged into the black sun were like clay oxen entering the sea, disappearing without a trace.
However, sustaining the Heavenly Demonic Black Sun consumed a lot of energy.
Han Fei had held on for twelve hours, and she was nearing her limit.
Looking back, she saw that no one had woken up. She could not help but sigh indifferently. "I've done my best. Take care of yourselves."
It was not that Han Fei was benevolent and willing to sacrifice herself to fight the unstoppable beast tide for them.
In fact, as a member of the demonic path faction, under the influence of the demonic energy all year round, most of them were selfish and indifferent. Han Fei was no exception.
The main reason she could do this was that she was wary of the unsettling black dog. Subconsciously, she did not want it to succeed. That was why she had protected the 20,000 challengers, leaving not even their bones behind.
However, the challengers behind her had not woken up yet. She had no choice but to give up and leave this place to protect herself.
Just as she was about to leave, she looked back suddenly, and surprise filled her eyes.
She had anticipated who would wake up first, but it was a little different from what she had expected.
"The first one to wake up isn't Dongfang Tianfeng," Han Fei said bluntly, staring at the smiling Su Yu.
"Oh? Did I disappoint you, Miss Han? "
"Not really." Han Fei put down the cultivation technique in her hand and looked at him indifferently. "If you have no other way to stop the beast tide, I'll take my leave."
Su Yu glanced at the few black suns and was secretly shocked. Fortunately, this woman had held off the beast tide for them for a while.
Otherwise, after being trapped for half a day, all of them would have been obliterated into nothingness.
"Miss Han, don't you care about the students of your faction?" Su Yu pointed at a group of students of the Supreme Heavenly Demon Faction.
Han Fei was expressionless. "The conditions don't allow me to take so many students with me. Oh, remember that you have a portable cavern. If you're willing to help me bring them along, the Supreme Heavenly Demon Faction will thank you."
This woman had a rather cold temperament, showing no attachment to her fellow faction members.
Shaking his head slightly, Su Yu said, "A mere beast tide isn't difficult to resist. What's difficult is, why do you think a beast tide is equal to a beast disaster?"
Su Yu's eyes shone with shrewd light. His gaze pierced through the beast tide and cast towards the faraway depths.
Han Fei was shocked. "A beast tide that only happens once in a hundred years on the continent isn't a great disaster? If it were in the northernmost region, a beast tide of this scale would require at least ten All Creations Old Monsters to resist. To resolve it, the faction leader would need to use the Mortal Fairy's Strength. "
Su Yu shook his head. "I'll repeat myself, a beast tide isn't equal to a beast disaster! If you really think you can overcome the beast disaster by resisting this beast tide, you'll end up miserable! "
Han Fei pondered. "Why do you say that?"
"Miss Han, haven't you noticed the commonality of the so-called disasters?" Su Yu squinted as he stared at the herd of beasts.
Han Fei's intelligence was unparalleled after all, and she understood immediately.
Her beautiful brows creased slightly. "Are you saying that the disasters will trap us in the fairyland?"
"That's right! The disaster of flowers turned those who failed into stone statues, the disaster of books turned those who failed into books of life, and the disaster of martial arts turned those who failed into virtual shadows. All in all, the commonality of all disasters is that they materialize those who failed! "
Han Fei's eyes shone brightly. "But the beast tide simply kills us, not materializes us."
"That's right, that's the nature of the so-called disasters," Su Yu said with a nod. "So, the real disaster isn't a beast tide!"
"So, the specific disasters are still unknown?" Su Yu nodded.
Su Yu's expression turned grave. "Yes, it's precisely because it's unknown that it's scary."
The other disasters were simple and straightforward, but the beast tide was the only one that people couldn't guard against.
"Ah, Sister Fei-er, Mr. Su, what are you talking about? I want to hear it too. " All of a sudden, Dongfang Tianfeng's voice rang out from behind them. Her innocent face, which looked both angry and happy, approached them curiously.
So fast! Su Yu stared at her meaningfully.
"You're quite fast," Han Fei said indifferently as she sized her up.
Dongfang Tianfeng chuckled. "How can I be faster than Sister Fei-er and Mr. Su? When I came to my senses, Sister Fei-er wasn't in the illusionary realm of the martial arts disaster at all. As for Mr. Su, tsk tsk, I didn't expect you to be so powerful! If you hadn't left the illusionary realm first, causing your virtual shadow to disappear right away, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to get out of it for the rest of my life. You're too powerful. I believe the other experts from the other regions are also stumped by you. "
Her words came from the bottom of her heart.
In fact, she and Su Yu had realized the solution to the martial arts disaster almost at the same time. However, she had fought until the very end and was stuck at Su Yu's hurdle, unable to destroy his virtual shadow.
It was only when Su Yu left that she managed to break free.
Swoosh!
At that moment, another person woke up. It was Bi Lingtian!
Bing Wuxin, who was not far behind, was followed by several top experts from the other regions.
As more and more people left the illusionary realm, those who were still trapped in it, no matter how stupid they were, should have realized that they weren't in the real world, but the illusionary realm.
After most of the experts emerged, their gazes at Su Yu changed.
Judging from the way many of them fought with the virtual shadow, if the top expert of the region was considered a difficult level of difficulty, then Bing Wuxin's was a hero level of difficulty, and Bi Lingtian's was a king level of difficulty. They were extremely difficult to deal with.
However, only those who had fought with Su Yu's virtual shadow understood.
Su Yu's was a f * cking hell level of difficulty!!
He started with the Meteor Light Stream Great Formation, used the Nine Dragons Demon Subduing Art, and with a backhand strike of sword energy that could destroy everything, he had beaten them to a pulp!
Even Bi Lingtian and Bing Wuxin, who were familiar with Su Yu, felt troubled.
The scene was so familiar with the hundred-story challenge of the martial tower that they almost broke out in curses.
Fortunately, Su Yu exited the illusionary realm very quickly. Only then did they heave a sigh of relief. There were no more obstacles, and they left the illusionary realm one after another.
Looking at the challengers who had woken up in a spurt, then glancing at their complicated gazes at Su Yu, Han Fei couldn't help but be surprised. How many people did this guy block alone?
However, with so many experts awakening at the same time, the pressure on Han Fei lessened abruptly.
"Since we've woken up first, we mustn't allow that damned dog's treacherous scheme to succeed!" Su Yu stood at the entrance and turned to face the crowd.
Han Fei nodded her snow-white chin lightly in agreement.
"Yes, that dog is too cunning! We must work together. "
The two women took the lead to chime in, making the situation very delicate. Su Yu seemed to have become the leader of the crowd!
There were many who were unconvinced!
"Tsk! Does a character from the barbarian region really think of himself as a leader? "
"Be it Han Fei or Dongfang Tianfeng, neither of them are willing to be inferior to others. Now, they are vaguely taking him as their leader. Hehe, what a brilliant strategy. It's hard not to admire him!"
"Yeah, who does he think he is? At most, he's just a strategist who's better than the starry sky elites. Does he really think he's so important?"
"Actually, I think his strength is passable, but not particularly impressive. Many challengers haven't shown their full strength, which is why Su Yuxian was so powerful in the hundred-story challenge and the virtual shadow in the martial disaster. If we reveal all our trump cards, what can he do?"
Everyone present was a renowned genius, so how could they be willing to be inferior to someone else? Especially this person, who had used the Heart's Oath Scroll to restrain them and disrupt their plan to harvest the weak and improve their chances of sublimation.
They didn't deliberately suppress their discussions.
Su Yu heard them very clearly.
Su Yu dismissed the rumors with a smile and said seriously, "The disaster of beasts is right before our eyes. With all of our strength, it won't be difficult to resist it. The difficult part is that we need to take turns guarding the entrance before everyone awakens."
There were 20,000 of them, and most of them were Almighty strong men.
Although their numbers were far less than the tide of beasts, their quality was far superior. With 20,000 people working together, a mere tide of beasts could be easily dispersed.
The problem was that less than 20 of them had woken up. Obviously, they couldn't contend with the massive tide of beasts. They had to buy enough time for the challengers who had yet to awaken.
"If everyone works together, the tide of beasts will be easily resisted."
As soon as he finished speaking, a challenger who looked like a wandering martial artist spoke up bluntly, "Excuse me, what obligation do I have to guard the entrance? I'm alone and have no friends or family, so there's no need for me to take the risk of defending them! "
Several other challengers who looked like wandering martial artists expressed their opinions one after another.
"That's right, we've never met before. It's against our principles to sacrifice ourselves for no reason!"
"Besides, Su Yuxian, why should we listen to your orders? This isn't the special moment when everyone is trapped in the martial tower. With the means that we have mastered, it's easy to stay away from the beasts. Why should we listen to your orders? Could it be that you're threatening us with the Heart's Oath Scroll again? "
The last sentence was what they were really thinking.
Why should Su Yu give them orders?
If that person was Han Fei or Dongfang Tianfeng, they could accept it.
Both of them had status, identity, and prestige.
But Su Yu's status was even lower than theirs. If they were to compare their trump cards, he might not be stronger than them!
Shirking responsibility was a lie, and denying Su Yu was the truth.
The disaster of beasts hadn't even begun, but internal strife had already begun? That didn't look good!
As he stared at the few wandering martial artists who were speaking, Su Yu noticed an interesting phenomenon.
The distribution of their cultivation levels seemed a little unusual.
There were strong ones, and the strongest one was comparable to the number one expert in the region. The weakest one was only a third-grade Almighty, neither too high nor too low. There were several fifth-grade and sixth-grade Almighty.
There didn't seem to be a problem, but upon careful consideration, one could catch a glimpse of something fishy.
