The mastermind behind the scenes starting with the calamity of all races

Xinghong Ancient City.

This once prosperous ancient city is now almost deserted, with few daring to approach it casually because of Su Yu. They fear being tricked and killed by him. Su Yu is a ruthless killer, a truly frightening figure.

The rear hall of the city lord's mansion.

Xinghong opened his eyes instantly and looked out.

Su Yu quickly asked, "Lord Xinghong, what is this...?"

Xinghong glanced at Su Yu and said, "Your grandfather is here."

Swish!

No sooner had he finished speaking than Yun Jie appeared inside the City Lord's Mansion. Xing Hong did not stop him, nor could he.

"Ayu, Xinghong is in charge."

Yun Jie gave a brief greeting.

"grandfather!"

"Greetings, Great Xuan King."

Upon seeing Yun Jie, Xing Hong was quite polite; he couldn't help but be polite. This man gave him the feeling of being unfathomable, and seemed to be no weaker than the leader of Hongmeng.

However, Yun Jie ignored Xing Hong. He still remembered what Xing Hong had done and would settle accounts with him sooner or later.

"Ayu, come here for a second," Yun Jie said, looking at Su Yu, who was about the same height as him. "I'm asking you, have you mastered the Five Elements Clan's divine technique?"

Su Yu nodded: "Yes, Grandpa, do you need it? I'll get it for you right away."

"No need, no need. I'm just confirming. Once you've got it, it'll be easier to discuss things when I go to the Five Elements Clan."

Yun Jie shook his head and refused. What would he need the Five Elements Divine Technique, which could open 180 divine apertures? He already had one, but he just didn't want to show it off. As for Su Yu, everyone knew about him, otherwise the Five Elements Clan and the Floating Earth Spirit wouldn't have bothered with him.

Su Yu was somewhat surprised: "Grandpa, you said you're going to the Five Elements Clan?"

"Yes, in the last battle, even though we won, the myriad races didn't use their full strength. They just didn't know my strength or the strength of the human race, so they stopped fighting."

"Therefore, they will continue to target the human race, and they will be even more aggressive. So we need to be prepared before that happens. Allies are indispensable at this time."

This brought up a question that piqued Su Yu's curiosity. He asked, "Grandpa, what is your current strength? And how is the realm above Eternity divided?"

Yun Jie: "Beyond Eternity is the Dao Integration Realm. However, even among those at the Dao Integration Realm, their strength varies greatly. The reason for this is based on their mastery of the rules. The higher the mastery, the stronger they are. Once they have fully mastered the Great Dao, they will become the master of the rules of that Dao."

"Therefore, in order to more intuitively judge the strength of the Dao Integration Realm, you can also divide it into five levels, with the first level being the strongest and the fifth level being the weakest. I am currently in the second level, belonging to the top level of Dao Integration. As far as I know, there are not many people at this level. The Dragon Emperor that I killed a few days ago belonged to the third level."

On this day, Yun Jie taught Su Yu a lot of things, which broadened Su Yu's horizons. At the same time, Su Yu also asked Yun Jie many questions about cultivation. No matter what Su Yu asked, Yun Jie was able to answer them one by one.

Therefore, Su Yu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "Having an elder in the family is truly like having a treasure."

Yun Jie smiled slightly at this. Even if he didn't say anything, Su Yu would find out sooner or later anyway. What he was doing now was just to help Su Yu avoid some detours.

Xinghong Ancient City, City Lord's Mansion.

"Oh, right."

Suddenly, Su Yu seemed to remember something.

"Grandpa, have you ever heard of the method of circulating qi?"

After saying that, he looked at Yun Jie with longing eyes. He had now undergone sixty-seven body forgings and was getting closer and closer to the seventy-second forging. He desperately needed to know the method of Zhou Tian, ​​otherwise his Sky Soaring Realm would not be perfect. If he could not get the method of Zhou Tian, ​​he would rather not advance.

Everyone says that Grandpa is an ancient relic from ancient times, so he should know that, right?

If all else fails, you can help him with the deduction.

Yun Jie was taken aback at first, then frowned slightly: "The Zhou Tian Method, I seem to have heard of it. In ancient times, it was said to be the strongest cultivation method. Only true geniuses were qualified to cultivate it, and only top families had the right to inherit it."

"Do you know?"

Su Yu looked at Yun Jie with anticipation. He had secretly deduced the Zhou Tian method before, which had blown Yun Jie to smithereens.

Yun Jie chuckled and said, "How would I know about this? You don't really think I'm some ancient relic from the past, do you? Don't listen to their nonsense. Just because someone is stronger doesn't mean they're an ancient relic. Who says people today are necessarily inferior to people in ancient times?"

"Ayu, you have to understand that the next generation will always be better than the previous generation! The predecessors are meant to be surpassed. If others can't surpass them, it's because they're too rubbish."

Xinghong: Thank you, I feel like I've been subtly insulted.

Su Yu: Here we go again, Grandpa's giving me another pep talk.

Then, Yun Jie changed the subject, "However, although I don't know, I know that someone definitely does."

Su Yu's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "Who is it? Who is it?"

Yun Jie didn't keep him in suspense and said directly, "The prodigy of the first Tide Change was called... He Tu. But unfortunately, he's already dead. He brought this upon himself. I just don't know if he's been resurrected in the Netherworld."

Yes, Yun Jie planned to use He Tu's words to tell Su Yu the method of Zhou Tian, ​​so that Su Yu wouldn't deduce it himself and then swear to establish rules to prohibit future generations from arbitrarily passing on the method of Zhou Tian. Wouldn't that harm future generations?

Su Yu, that kid, is cunning and wicked!

He feels resentful if he makes others suffer the same hardships he has endured.

"Hetu!?"

Su Yu was shocked. This person... no, this undead, he recognized him!

Behind them, Xing Hong was also somewhat surprised; this Great Xuan King really knew quite a lot.

Su Yu quickly replied, "I know this He Tu. I saw him in Hongmeng City last time!"

"Huh? He really recovered?"

Yun Jie looked "surprised" and said.

"Grandpa, let's go! Let's go to Hongmeng City right now!"

Su Yu stood up excitedly, feeling that victory was just around the corner!

The method of circulating qi, here I come!

“Well… that’s fine, I happen to have some things to discuss with the Hongmeng Guardian.”

Yun Jie changed his mind at the last minute. He decided to postpone his trip to the Five Elements Clan until he left Hongmeng City.

"Walk."

Yun Jie grabbed Su Yu and disappeared from Xinghong Ancient City in a flash.

As time and space continued to shift, when Su Yu opened his eyes again, Hongmeng City was already right in front of him.

So fast!

Is this what it means to achieve enlightenment? Invincibility can't happen that quickly.

Before Su Yu could recover, Yun Jie pulled him into the city and headed straight for the city lord's mansion.

At the same time, in the rear hall of the city lord's mansion.

The Primordial Tortoise slowly opened its eyes; someone had arrived.

Wow!

Yun Jie appeared before the Hongmeng Old Tortoise with Su Yu. The old tortoise was slightly taken aback and asked in surprise, "Great Xuan King, Su Yu, what brings you two here?"

Su Yu was about to speak when Yun Jie stopped him.

Yun Jie looked at the Hongmeng Old Tortoise and said seriously, "I wonder what the Hongmeng Guardian thinks of the current situation in the myriad realms? Is there any possibility of an alliance between my human race and the Guardian's lineage?"

After pondering for a moment, the Hongmeng Old Turtle said, "It will be difficult for the human race to win. The key is still the upper realm. As far as I know, most of the older generation of human powerhouses are dead. So, don't be fooled by your current victory. In reality, your situation is very unfavorable."

Yun Jie nodded slightly and said, "It's alright. We never expected anything from them anyway. On the contrary, they might be the ones who are counting on us."

The Hongmeng Old Turtle didn't say anything. What the Great Xuan King said made sense. If the human race wanted to turn the tide, they could only do so by opening up the situation in the lower realm.

Then, the Hongmeng Old Turtle glanced at Su Yu and said, "The alliance is not out of the question. Even if you don't bring it up, our Holy City lineage is willing to support Su Yu."

"What!?"

Su Yu was shocked. The Holy City faction was supporting him? Was it that sudden?

However... this seems to be similar to what Yun Jie told him before. Su Yu couldn't help but glance at Yun Jie. As expected of his grandfather, he is truly shrewd and calculating!

Yun Jie smiled and said, "Really? Supporting Su Yu is great. Su Yu is now expected to become the current human ruler. The Holy City lineage supports Su Yu, which is to support the human race. There is no difference."

Su Yu was stunned on the spot. Me, the Lord of Humanity?

Yun Jie turned to Su Yu and said, "I forgot to tell you, there was a meeting within the human race before. At the meeting, I recommended you to everyone, but there was one requirement: you must be able to match or even kill the invincible when you reach the Lingyun Realm."

Well, Su Yu was even more confused now. Was Lingyun Zhan being too arrogant?

However... with a little effort, it doesn't seem impossible.

Everything depends on the effects of the Zhou Tian method.

Thinking of this, Su Yu quickly explained his purpose to the Hongmeng Old Tortoise. The old tortoise fell into recollection. As a descendant of Prince Gong, He Tu was one of the "tide riders" of the first tidal change and one of the representatives of Zhou Tian's body-forging. He should be able to do it.

“He Tu… He did seem to know about this Zhou Tian method before, but now that he has become a dead spirit, he may not be able to recall his memories from his previous life. Let me ask him.”

Yun Jie quickly said, "Let's ask him face to face. Can you call him out, or let us into the Netherworld?"

The Hongmeng Old Turtle looked at Yun Jie in surprise, not understanding what he was going to do. He could have just asked for him, why did he have to do it in person?

Seeing the old tortoise's surprise, Yun Jie smiled and explained, "I don't think He Tu can remember it right away. If Su Yu cultivates and deduces it in front of him, it might stimulate him and awaken his memory."

In fact, in the original work, He Tu only remembered it after seeing Su Yu's deduction of the Zhou Tian method in the memories of a wolf demon. Therefore, it is highly likely that He Tu cannot remember it now.

Therefore, he might as well let Su Yu deduce it in front of him. If that didn't work, he could secretly give him some pointers.

Of course, there's also Xia Chen's reason. It's time for Xia Chen and Su Yu to meet. And once Su Yu gets to know Xia Chen and He Tu, he'll have a helper for the upcoming trip to Xingyu Mansion.

As for Yun Jie, he originally planned to go in with Qin Guang to have some fun, but now that he has "merged with the Dao," all the races will definitely keep a close eye on him. Moreover, there's not much fun in going in with the strength of the Merged Dao realm; it's just a matter of sweeping through, unless the half-emperors of each race also go in.
