Dummy couldn't give a clear answer. But he might really be Xia Chen, the first principal. At that thought, Su Yu's emotions became complicated as he looked at Dummy. The first principal was someone who had left a deep mark on humanity in the tenth epoch. He was the ten epoch's multiple character faction founder. Someone like him had transformed into a death spirit with barely any of his past memories left. Death imprints and life death fruits could help restore some of his memories. Su Yu wasn't too interested on anything else, but he had a deep interest in the Culture Tomb. Suddenly, he looked at He Tu. Sensing that, He Tu's expression changed. What was that look? Didn't Su Yu get a death imprint not long ago? He had given it to Xing Yue. Shouldn't he be taking it back from Xing Yue instead? He Tu was a very smart man. Even after becoming a death spirit, he could still see what Su Yu was thinking. With a smile, Su Yu sent a voice transmission, "Lord, you're too strong. A single imprint won't do much for you. If you really need these imprints, we can join hands and gather some. The Death Realm is basically a death imprint farm. When my apertures are finally open, we can kill as many death sovereigns as you need. See this as an investment. A zero risk investment..." Su Yu spoke as if death sovereigns were cabbages he could harvest anytime and anywhere. He Tu had a gloomy look as he said, "Zero risk? I don't think so. When you leave the Death Realm, you will be in great trouble. Do you think I know nothing?" Was this a joke? Someone like Su Yu would never live in peace and calm. Wherever he went, he would cause countless troubles. How was this a zero-risk investment? Su Yu said, "Lord, we are both main characters of an epoch. You should understand just how hard it is for people like us to die. I might die in the future, but not before I do enough. And that should be enough for you to reap a great return in your investment." "Heh. The main character of the second epoch died very early. He was slapped into mincement by a passing Pseudo Emperor right after he rose in power." Su Yu asked blankly, "A human?" "Yeah." He Tu said, "Yes. A human. He had just risen in power. After affirming his dao, he started killing seventh-degree Eternals as a mere fourth-degree Eternal. And then...his story ended. A random old fossil who was passing by slapped him to death." Instantly, Su Yu cursed. Holy shit! Did that really happen? Poor guy. Sure enough, the Myriad Realms were so massive that anything could happen. What a pitiful main character of an epoch. With the strength to kill seventh-degree Eternals, he was most certainly not weak. Yet he had been slapped to death by a random old monster. That must have felt terrible. "Lord, did he awaken as a death spirit?" He Tu shook his head. The Death Realm was too big. How was he supposed to know that? Even if that fellow had awakened, he might choose to hide his past. Or perhaps he couldn't even remember his past. He Tu couldn't be bothered to say more. He looked at Dummy and tossed the imprint over. Su Yu was right. With his strength, the imprint wouldn't do much for him even if it would still be quite beneficial for him. But Su Yu was right about one thing. This was an investment. His cooperation with Su Yu had been quite smooth thus far. Dummy merely caught the imprint before standing there blankly. He Tu rolled his eyes and said, "Absorb it." At that, Dummy stared at the imprint blankly. Then, he started absorbing it instinctively. As he did that, He Tu said, "Let's leave. The battle earlier had been quite loud. More death spirits might arrive soon. He won't be able to finish the absorption anytime soon." Su Yu nodded. And thus, they started moving deeper into the area in search of the black hole He Tu mentioned earlier. Inside a relatively prominent kingdom in the Death Realm, a massive city stood. Inside the city, a forest of dark palaces could be seen. Numerous figures were walking back and forth in these palaces. In the Death Realm, anyone below the Pseudo Invincible would merely roam around mindlessly. Several death spirits sat cross-legged. Before them, a large mirror could be seen. It was similar in shape with Great Ming's Super Sensory Jade. Suddenly, a death spirit opened his eyes and looked at the black dots in the mirror. Just moments ago, two of the dots had vanished. The death spirit frowned and said, "The two tigers of the twenty-eighth region of the east had vanished. Record this down. It is unknown if they have died or been transferred by the laws. He Tu, Xing Yue, and the newly awakened person were nearby when it happened." He focused on the dots of light representing He Tu and noted a reddish black dot beside He Tu. He said, "Is there an outsider with He Tu and Xing Yue?" A smaller death spirit opened his eyes as well. After a long pause, he said, "It's hard to judge. Should we send some scouts over? That might be a newly converted death spirit or a pseudo death spirit." "Forget it. The twenty-eighth region of the east is quite far away. They will be long gone by the time our scouts are there." The first death spirit said, "Pay more attention to the east. Previously, something happened in the Luminous Domain Mansion. Over twenty death sovereigns near the thirtieth region vanished. This is a big loss. Stop the transference for now. Do not allow more death spirits to enter the Luminous Domain Mansion." "Is anyone aware of what's happening in the Luminous Domain Mansion? Is Devote King's Source Return Blade going crazy?" "It's hard to judge." A different death spirit asked, "Do we report this to the great king?" "No. This isn't important enough to disturb the great king's seclusion. But report it to the Darkmoon Marquis." "There are quite a lot of awakened humans in the east. We should hand this matter to Marquis Lanshan instead." After discussing among themselves, they decided to report the incident. The tiger brothers were strong. Both were seventh-degree Eternals upon awakening. The deaths of such powerful death sovereigns indeed required attention. Of course, they also needed to give it some time. If the tiger brothers had merely been transferred by the laws, they would return before long. They only needed to wait three days. Even the transference of laws would only allow the tiger brothers to stay in the world of the living for three days. Done with their discussion, the death spirits shut their eyes again. Meanwhile, numerous dark dots continued moving all over the mirror. They differed in size, and some were also reddish black like Su Yu's dot. These were mostly the dots of newly awakened or pseudo death spirits. These people weren't that rare in the Death Realm. Nobody would even notice Su Yu if it wasn't for the fact that he was staying with He Tu and Xing Yue. Then again, very few cared about him right now. They were more concerned about He Tu. Without the tiger brothers around, would He Tu start creating trouble there? Su Yu's tribulation character pulsed slightly. Curious, he looked around. However, he saw nothing. His surroundings were still completely empty. He Tu asked, "What is it?" "Nothing much. I felt a small sense of danger..." “That's normal in the Death Realm." He Tu was unconcerned about that. The Death Realm was filled with dangers. That was no big deal. Furthermore, the Celestial River of Death was ahead of them. That place would be far more dangerous than any other place. After looking around cautiously, He Tu shook his head and said, "It's fine. If the danger sense isn't reacting too intensely, it won't be anything out of the ordinary." He would not underestimate Su Yu's danger sense because Su Yu was different. If it were anyone else, he wouldn't have bothered to even give it a second thought. Su Yu nodded and said, "With you around, we'll naturally be fine." He paused slightly and continued, "It's the twenty-first day. I need to return within nine days to make some preparations for the closure of the mansion. Lord, how much further are we?" He Tu rolled his eyes. This guy must be planning to do something crazy again after leaving the Death Realm. The two stopped talking about Su Yu's triggered danger sense, but they did increase their wariness due to that little episode. One could never be too cautious. Then again, their group was already quite strong. Dummy was a seventh-degree Eternal. Including He Tu and Su Yu, they could face quite a lot of challenges. Xing Yue was weaker, but she was still a middle-degree Eternal. Thus, regular dangers would not be able to threaten them. So long as they didn't face a ninth-degree Eternal or a Daofuse, they would be fine. Even ninth-degree Eternals would differ greatly in strength. People like Great Qin King, Heaven Department head, and Blood Fire Devil King could be considered the top experts among ninth-degree Eternals. While walking, Su Yu asked, "Where are all those human kings, Pseudo Emperors, marquises, and titled generals from the ancient past? Why have we not met any here?" "Some are still in the Celestial River of Death, and some might have awakened and roamed away..." He Tu said, "If we keep going eastward, we can encounter a few familiar faces. You can take a trip there when you have the time. Many of them used to be humans before dying, but most of them are quite mindless nowadays." Meanwhile, Su Yu could only acknowledge that the Death Realm was truly massive. They had spent an entire day flying, but according to He Tu, this was merely a tiny part of the Death Realm. It felt as though not even the Allheaven Battlefield was this big. And that was the truth.
