Lack of talent? I'll buy a year's worth of cultivation for one dollar!

"What's the Demon Sect doing?"

Youyue's divine sense responded quickly.

"Master, Sect Master Mo Tianjue is also secretly investigating your whereabouts."

"However, the Primordial Demon Sect did not make a big show of it like the Corpse Sect."

"They seem to be observing, waiting for the Corpse Sect to test your hand first."

Su Yu nodded slightly.

"understood."

"Continue to lie low and report back at any time."

Su Yu severed the connection of divine sense.

He opened his eyes, his gaze piercing through the thick layer of star core rock and piercing into the endless void.

The Heavenly Corpse Sect is searching the whole world for itself?

That's perfect.

"I originally planned to settle things with the Corpse Sect."

"And while you're at it, take the Primordial True Spirit Blood Spring."

As far as he knew, the Primordial True Spirit Blood Spring was one of the core resources that the Heavenly Sorrow Corpse Sect and the Beginning Demon Sect had been fighting over for many years.

Since the Corpse Sect is so enthusiastic.

I must pay them a visit.

hum.

Su Yu took a step forward.

His figure transformed into a dark streak of light, completely ignoring the physical obstacles posed by the stars.

Tearing through the void.

They sped off toward the direction of the Myriad Spirit Demon Abyss.

……

Half a month later.

Eastern Region of the Primordial Realm, outer perimeter of the Myriad Spirits Demon Abyss.

This is a vast wasteland shrouded in blood-red miasma year-round, known as the Burial Ground.

The edge of the wasteland.

A colossal city, built from the bones of countless ancient behemoths, lies dormant on the earth like a lurking beast.

Bloodbath City.

The most notorious no-man's-land in the Demon Abyss of Ten Thousand Spirits.

Su Yu, dressed in a coarse cloth robe, concealed all his aura, walking calmly along the wide streets of Blood Fighting City like an ordinary rogue cultivator in the Heavenly Realm.

He didn't rush to attack the Corpse Sect's headquarters.

because.

As he passed through the city, he sensed an unusually intense fluctuation of laws.

And, bursts of noise that soared into the sky.

In the center of the city.

A huge obsidian arena floats in mid-air.

The arena was surrounded by a dense crowd of cultivators and demons, making it impossible to move.

"kill!"

"Tear him to pieces!"

Frenzied roars rose and fell.

Su Yu stopped and calmly looked at the arena.

On the arena, two demons at the Hunyuan Realm were engaged in the most primitive and bloody physical combat.

but.

What attracted Su Yu was not this boring battle.

Instead, it was the giant golden scroll that floated above the arena.

Above, the rules and rewards for this arena competition were written in ancient divine script.

[Life or Death Arena]

A one-on-one duel, life or death is irrelevant.

The player who achieves ten consecutive wins can choose one valuable resource from the reward list.

Su Yu's gaze swept over the long list of rewards.

Top-grade Dao artifact.

Taigu Great Medicine.

There are even incomplete fragments of the original essence of the ancient artifacts.

The scale of the project is astonishingly large.

However, when Su Yu's gaze fell on the top line of the list...

His breathing paused almost imperceptibly for half a breath.

【A Treasure of Time – The Flower of Rebirth Through the Ages】

[Supreme Dao Artifact - Primordial Evolutionary Heaven Disc].

【The Ancient Medicine - Nine-Turn Life and Death Lotus】.

【...】

Time brings rebirth and the flower blooms.

A dark glint flashed in Su Yu's deep eyes.

The core materials for the Time God Kingdom to break through to the Evolutionary Heaven Realm.

He had already obtained the [Heart of the Universe] in the Abyss Realm.

Now, all that's missing is this one flower.

Once all the necessary components are collected, the acceleration lever of the Time God Kingdom will undergo another qualitative change, reaching a terrifying ratio of one to ten thousand.

"Is there really such a good thing?"

Su Yu pondered this in his heart.

Although Bloodbath City is prosperous, rare treasures like the [Nirvana Flower of Time] are extremely rare and precious even for old monsters in the Other Shore Realm.

How could it possibly be used as a prize in a tournament?

This is not logical.

unless.

A very faint smile appeared on Su Yu's lips.

"Someone is fishing."

Based on the information previously sent by Fan Yin, the Heavenly Sorrow Corpse Sect is searching for him all over the world.

The fact that he possessed the Time God Kingdom had already been made public by the Xuanhuang Dao Court's wanted notice.

Anyone with a modicum of common sense can deduce that they desperately need top-tier time-related resources.

A calculated scheme.

A blatant and overt conspiracy.

By placing the "Nirvana Flower of Time" in the open, they are trying to lure themselves into revealing themselves.

"It seems the Corpse Sect has gone to great lengths to capture me."

Su Yu stood with his hands behind his back, his expression calm and composed.

They knew it was a trap.

so what?

Faced with absolute power, any conspiracy or trickery is nothing but a fragile paper tiger.

"Since the flowers have been delivered to our door..."

"If we don't take it, wouldn't we be letting down the Corpse Sect's good intentions?"

Su Yu took a step and walked towards the arena.

……

at the same time.

It is hundreds of millions of miles away from Bloodbath City.

The Heavenly Corpse Sect, deep within its ancestral land, lies the Hall of Ten Thousand Bones.

Inside the main hall, the dark, deathly aura flowed as if it were a tangible substance, creating an extremely oppressive atmosphere.

Sect Master Shi Tianjue sat upright at the head of the table.

Below stood four core elders at the early stage of the Other Shore Realm.

"metropolitan."

Elder Shi You stepped forward, his tone calm, but his brows were tightly furrowed.

"Half a month has passed."

"We mobilized all our hidden networks in the Eastern Region, even those reclusive rogue cultivators."

"But that Su Yu seems to have vanished into thin air; there's been no news of him whatsoever."

Shi Tianjue remained expressionless.

His deep-set eyes revealed a cunning and ruthless nature.

"It is common for cultivators to go into seclusion for tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years at a time."

"With the Eight Desolate Domain Suppressing Force in his hand and the Time God Kingdom assisting him, he must be hiding in some corner cultivating in seclusion."

"Trying to find a deliberately hidden peak of Wuji in the vast Hongmeng Realm is like finding a needle in a haystack."

Shi Tianjue's fingers tapped lightly on the armrest.

"We have to try all sorts of methods."

He raised his head and looked at Shi You.

"Any activity regarding the trap we set up in Bloodbath City?"

Shi You shook his head.

"Reporting to the Sect Master, not yet."

"The [Nirvana Flower of Time] has been on the rewards list for several days now, attracting many rogue cultivators in the Primordial Chaos Realm and the Limitless Realm to participate in the arena."

"However, no trace of Su Yu was found."

Shi You paused, a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes.

"Sect Master, is this scheme really going to lure him out?"

"The wanted poster from the Xuanhuang Dao Court says he has a Time God Kingdom, which is indeed true."

"But he's not stupid. Even a fool could see something was wrong if a rare treasure of this caliber suddenly appeared in a tournament in a lawless area."

"Does he dare to come?"

Will he come?

Shi Tianjue sneered.

"He dares."

"Because it's an open conspiracy."

Shi Tianjue stood up, put his hands behind his back, and spoke with a tone that revealed a control over human nature.

"The more extraordinary a talent is, the more confident they are in their own abilities."

"The fact that he could shatter Shi Ming's half-step ancient artifact with a single punch shows that he has the confidence to fight beyond his level."

"Faced with the ultimate temptation of breakthrough, even if he knows it's a trap, he will definitely step into it."

"We just need to spread the net wide and wait for him to jump in."

Inside the main hall, several elders nodded in agreement.

The sect leader's deduction was flawless.
