Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 1102: Transit (3)

White One continued his instructions, "When you reach the Human Realm, you may start recruiting some humans into the pavilion. However, the members you recruit will only be limited to gray and rainbow masks.

"You can continue using your Heavenly Hunt Directories in the Human Realm as usual. The white masks selected as team leaders will have some functions of their masks upgraded. You will be able to directly contact the enforcers of your respective departments. For example, those from the Heaven Department can contact me while those from the Profound Department can contact Rainbow One. This is because the elders you report directly to might not be involved in this mission."

White One spent a long time giving them numerous instructions and explanations.

Finally, he said, "When we first entered, we might end up scattered everywhere. Some of us will end up pursued by the humans. Do not underestimate the human race. They still have a large number of Sunmoons in their realm. The moment you're discovered, things might turn bad, especially if it involves prefectures with martial traditions like Great Xia and Great Qin. The people there love killing invaders for merit points.

"If you find yourself separated from your companions, stay calm. Do your best to stay alive and obtain the locations of our gathering points from the enforcers. If your enforcer is dead, contact an elder. If your elder is uncontactable as well, wait for the replacements to get in contact with you."

"..."

A white mask couldn't help asking, "Is the Human Realm really so dangerous?"

Could that place be more dangerous than the Allheaven Battlefield? If they could survive even the Allheaven Battlefield, was there a need to worry about surviving in a single realm?

White One replied coldly, "A major war has not broken in the Allheaven Battlefield for a very long time. It is also not the home ground of the various races. The Human Realm might lack the suppressive force, but its experts are numerous. Furthermore, that is their home ground. What do you think? Remember my words. This is especially true if you end up in Great Xia or Great Qin. That might end up as the most dangerous place you've ever been to. You will be notified of the prefecture you're assigned to upon entering the Human Realm. And if you're assigned to either of the two aforementioned prefectures, pray for good luck."

This was very dangerous. Those two prefectures were filled with murderous lunatics.

"What about Great Zhou?"

White One thought about it and answered, "That place is dangerous as well. But the people there love cultivating in seclusion. Outside of their capital, the number of experts you might encounter is far lower."

"Lord White One, won't these masks make us too conspicuous in the Human Realm?"

"Yes."

"Can we take these masks off, then?"

"You can if you're a human. If not...you will probably die faster without a mask."

White One gave an indifferent reply. They could try blending in by taking the masks off if they were humans. If they weren't, they should remember that the humans loved killing demonic beasts, divines, and devils in particular. Why? Because humans were too poor. Whenever they saw some demonic beasts, divines, and devils, they would think of blood essence and money.

"You can also adjust the appearance of your masks, like changing it into breathing masks, visors, cloaks, and so on. It's not like humans don't wear masks at all."

Understanding dawned on some of them. Not all of them were familiar with the human culture.

White One said, "The black, rainbow, and gray masks will arrive in batches before reporting to you. You will all be given unique communication frequencies to contact your team members when you arrive. You can choose to meet them or simply give your orders remotely. I recommend you don't meet to prevent having all of you eliminated in one fell swoop."

Su Yu asked, "Lord, since we will be in charge of information gathering, logistics, and transactions, will we be given control over the storage or do we need the enforcers to deliver us the products for each transaction?"

"The storage will be under the control of team leaders. You will receive detailed information upon arrival. If you die right after entering, it's pointless for you to know too much now."

With repeated warnings, some of them finally started taking his words about the danger of this mission seriously.

White One moved on, "Now, start picking your members. Tonight, leave the city and gather up. After that, we will set off to the Human Realm."

"Yes!"

Everyone answered.

***

Su Yu started picking his members as well. But when he scanned the room, everyone looked the same. Of course, their auras differed in strength. But most of them were Mountainseas. He was unsure if there were Cloudbreaches among them. Perhaps there were, but with so many of them in one room and their auras all mixed together, it was hard to make an accurate judgment. Were there actually Cloudbreaches among white masks?

Su Yu firmly believed that the answer was yes. After all, he was a Cloudbreach as well.

He couldn't be bothered to carefully pick his members. Thus, he spoke up, "I need a white mask from the Yellow Department and two white masks with great combat strength."

He added, "It is preferable for Yellow Nine, Earth Nine, and Heaven Nine to join me. That will make it easier for us to remember each other."

At that, one of the people in the room laughed, "I'm Yellow Nine. Profound Nine, let's work together."

With Yellow Nine in the bag, Su Yu looked around for Earth Nine and Heaven Nine. Eventually, he found that they were both Sunmoons who were also seated in the room. Both were looking at him with bizarre expressions in their eyes.

They were basically saying with their eyes that they were Earth Nine and Heaven Nine. What next?

Su Yu laughed and said nothing. He had not demonstrated too impressive of a combat strength earlier. Thus, Yellow Nine was the only person who had volunteered to join him. Eventually, two of the leftovers hurriedly joined Su Yu for fear of being assigned to the even weaker team leaders.

One of them came from the Profound Department as well, codenamed Profound Seventeen. The other came from the Earth Department, Earth Eighteen.

And thus, the higher-ups of the team were decided. Profound Nine, Profound Seventeen, Earth Eighteen, and Yellow Nine. They were all Mountainseas. Yes, Su Yu was considered a Mountainsea since he had demonstrated the strength of a Mountainsea.

This was not a weak team by any means, but compared with some of the other teams, they did look quite weak. In fact, some of the teams had more than one Sunmoons as they had recruited the enforcers as well.

Su Yu couldn't be bothered to do so. Yes, there were a lot of Sunmoons among the enforcers. But would he still be in charge after recruiting a Sunmoon? He would rather stay in charge with weaker team members. It wasn't all that bad having a few Mountainseas as his subordinates.

White One and the three remaining enforcers looked at the teams. With a nod, White One said, "We'll go with this. Remember, you will be assigned missions as usual in the Human Realm. Naturally, you will also be rewarded for these missions. Since the Human Realm is considered a new market for us, you are entitled to one percent commission for all your deals in the Human Realm, ten times the usual value.

"Additionally, there are barely any index copies circulating in the Human Realm. Most of the index holders are located in the Allheaven Battlefield. Thus, you will have to open up a new market through your own efforts. There is no mature market ready for you."

Su Yu felt exhausted listening to all that. Why was this guy talking like they were in a business meeting? Wait...in a way, this was a business meeting. Of course, the human race would naturally not buy the excuse that the pavilion was there only to do business.

"Also, you can carry some additional index copies with you. When you arrive, you can pass them to those you believe you can do business with. The team leaders will be in charge of this. These special index copies can only be used to contact the directory of the team leader they received the index copies from. Thus, each customer will belong to only you. Nobody can steal your customers."

Su Yu praised inwardly. That was a good system.

The market in the Allheaven Battlefield was already mature. They could only rely on the existing platform to conduct their business deals. There was very little they could do to gain new customers. As a result, they were all basically glorified errant runners instead of salespersons in charge of developing new markets.

Su Yu started growing excited. Developing a new market? He was great at this! They only needed to assign him to Great Xia. He would then make Xia Huyou his customer. That guy was very rich! As the master of an entire prefecture, the Xia Family was actually quite wealthy.

He could also make Marquis Xia his customer. That was also a rich guy. There were still a few late-stage Sunmoon divine corpses in Great Xia. Of course, he wouldn't mind being assigned to Great Ming either. Old Zhu was quite rich as well.

Great Ming was actually filled with rich people. Wait...he was not returning to do business. Why was he thinking about all that?

Su Yu warned himself to not get too immersed in this role. He was returning to mess his enemies up, not do business. He was already so rich. He did not need to waste his time doing business.

"Alright. That is all. Leave the city tonight."

"Yes!"

***

Late at night, the group left the city.

Then, they set off under the lead of the twelve elders. They moved through a complicated route. Su Yu was surprised to find that their route involved passing through several doors as well. These were teleportation formations.

He once heard that teleportation formations were available in the Divine and Devil Realms. Unexpectedly, the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion had its own teleportation formations as well.

But these teleportation formations looked quite abnormal. They looked more like ancient formations that had been discovered and controlled by the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion instead of something they made themselves. Through the numerous teleportations, not even Su Yu could accurately determine the actual route they were using.

After a long while, they passed through yet another teleportation formation to reach atop a large formation. A tunnel could be seen in front of them. They had finally reached the entrance to the Human Realm.

Su Yu was very surprised. So the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion really knew a secret entrance to the Human Realm. Several faceless elders were standing guard there.

The moment the group arrived, one of the faceless elders spoke, "Ten in a group. This tunnel is not big. Be quick. After entering, you will be teleported to random locations. Pray for good luck. If you're unlucky enough to be teleported to the middle of a major prefecture's capital, you will simply die. Pay attention to your messages after entering. You will be informed of the prefectures you're assigned to through these messages."

Then, the faceless elders got to work. Su Yu felt an unknown force pushing him toward one of the groups. The first group of ten instantly vanished inside the tunnel.

After about thirty seconds, a faceless elder spoke, "One dead."

"..."

Speechless.

To be precise, Su Yu was speechless. Such an unlucky guy. Where was that guy teleported to? As a Mountainsea, that guy was not weak at all. How did he die instantly? Even in the Human Realm, Mountainseas were quite rare.

For that guy to die in thirty seconds, did he get teleported right into the prefect's residence of Great Xia?

***

At the same time.

Human Realm.

Zhu Tiandao was looking up solemnly. At the same time, he also looked quite surprised. Heavenly Hunt Pavilion? He was holding a corpse in his hand. He did not pay too much attention to the person he had killed so easily.

He was only curious about how this person had arrived. The realm entrance? Was the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion sneaking into their realm? That did not seem like a stable entrance. A stable entrance wouldn't transport people using it to random locations.

"Fifth-stage Mountainsea...white mask..."

After muttering to himself, Zhu Tiandao sent a voice transmission, "Pay close attention to our territory. Keep the Super Sensory Jade active. The Heavenly Hunt Pavilion seems to be sending people into the Human Realm. Try to catch a few of them alive. I don't think they will send only one."

That unstable entrance might be located near Great Ming. Otherwise, how would one of them appear right above him? That was way too coincidental. Whatever. It wasn't that big of a deal.

He would only start taking this seriously if it was a faceless elder instead. In fact, not even faceless elders could pose much threat. The pavilion needed to send their gold masks to really pose a challenge.

Speaking of, would any gold masks be coming? At that thought, Prefect Zhu trembled slightly in fear.

Wait, there was nothing to fear. His father was around. Yeap. His father was in the Human Realm at the moment!

He did not hesitate and contacted his old man, "Father, the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion is sending people inside the Human Realm. The entrance might be near Great Ming. Come back! You need to catch them!"

"Got it. We're getting rich! The Heavenly Hunt Pavilion is very rich!"

Great Ming King, who was observing his farmer grandson in the Knowledge Seeking Realm, vanished with a flicker. His voice rang out in the entire Knowledge Seeking Realm, "My grandson is a good farmer. If anyone dares to damage the farm again, I'll beat you all to death."

Absolute silence instantly enveloped the entire Knowledge Seeking Realm.

Great Ming King had returned. He returned alone. And the first thing he did after returning was encourage his grandson to extend their farm. Their farm now spread across almost the entire Knowledge Seeking Realm. At this rate, their farm would soon fully surround the Heavenly Source Domain. Was the Heavenly Source Domain going to turn into their private property?

Some cried tearlessly, some were indignant, and some prayed for their ancestors to return sooner. This couldn't continue! They were going to lose contact with the holy land soon!

Great Ming King did not allow them to damage the farm. But the farm was in the process of surrounding the holy land. It was only a matter of time before their access to the holy land was completely cut off.

Why was everyone in this damn family so shameless?
