Su Yu grinned without any shame and asked, "So you want me to save these people?" After a short silence, the spire head nodded. "Why don't you look for the human race for this?" The spire head said, "The humans can't do anything. The Heavenly Overseer Marquis does not fear them. He doesn't need anything from them either." "You can be very useful. Of course, you might not view this as a worthy thing to do. Previously, Senior Heavendoom managed to seize the record character. The Heavenly Overseer Marquis might be willing to spare some of these humans with that character as the price." Su Yu was unaware of that. The spire head explained, "It came from the Bountiful Treasure General. For his own survival, he gave it to Senior Heavendoom. That is a very important component of the Heavenly Hunt Index. It is very important for Heavenly Overseer Marquis. Of course, it is also very valuable. Perhaps you won't be willing to trade it for some humans who aren't even Eternals. I am only here to try my luck..." Su Yu asked, "Can't the humans simply leave and return to the Human Realm?" After a short silence, the spire head said, "Some might not be willing to leave. They believe that there is still hope so long as their identities remain a secret. After so many years, some of them have grown into elders, with a large amount of resources under their care. Leaving is the same as giving up on all that." He sighed and said, "This includes those under me. There are two human elders among my subordinates. I told them to leave, but they were unwilling. After all, the West Spire controls a large amount of resources and information, including the numerous spies we have in the various realms. They are not willing to give up on all that." "Spies in various realms?" Su Yu rubbed his chin and said, "That's quite useful. Sneaking into any realm will be much easier with some local help instead of appearing out of nowhere as someone entirely new." The spire head was rendered speechless. Why was that Su Yu's first thought upon hearing this? Su Yu smiled and said, "I'll think about this. How about this? Contact the pavilion and tell the marquis to be patient. I'm willing to do a trade with him. This is no big deal." "But he needs to wait. I need to study the record character first. Perhaps that's Culture King's character. Tell him to wait. For him, waiting for ten years or so is nothing, right?" The spire head said, "He might not be so patient. Too long and the humans will gain the time to arrange for an orderly escape." Su Yu chuckled and said, "Fine. Make it one month. I'll complete the trade if I feel like doing so in a month. Otherwise, he can do whatever he wants." The spire head had nothing else to say. He was only here to take a gamble. Since Su Yu had made such a promise, there was still hope. He stood up to leave. Since his purpose here had been accomplished, there was no need for him to stay for long. But before he could leave, Su Yu asked, "Spire Head, are you returning to the Human Realm? Or do you have somewhere else to go?" "I doubt I'll return to the Human Realm. It's not like I can win their trust anymore. Rather than that, I would rather roam the Allheaven Battlefield or spend some time in a minor realm. I doubt you need my help for anything, Mayor Su. After all, you have all those guardians backing you." Clearly, he had greeted the guardians in advance before coming. Su Yu did not mind that. He smiled and said, "I won't force you to do anything, but I have a small favor to ask." "What do you need from me?" "After spending so many years as a spire head in the pavilion, I believe you have established a rich network of connections." Su Yu continued, "It's a simple favor..." At that, Su Yu took out a book and said, "Do you know what this is?" The spire head said, "The culture weapon you forged previously." "Correct." Su Yu asked, "Is it powerful?" As the spire head frowned, Su Yu answered, "Do you know that I have forged over thirty carrier treasures onto this book? It has also consumed the blood essence of countless experts." The spire head was shocked at how wasteful Su Yu was, but he was also shocked at the fact that this weapon was raised through the blood essence of experts. This was a demonic weapon through and through. Su Yu grinned, "Exactly. It's a demonic weapon. I am a butcher. I have killed countless people, including Invincibles. Why? For their blood essence. For their carrier treasures. Please do me a favor and spread this news everywhere." "Hmm?" The spire head asked in surprise, "Spread it?" Su Yu said, "I believe you have the ability to do so. But don't make it so everyone knows. I only want some top experts to know it." "What?" The spire head said, "This will only bring you more trouble." Su Yu chuckled, "What difference does it make? Am I not in enough trouble right now?" Things would be the same. The spire head blanked out as the realization hit him. At this point, those who were still uninterested in killing Su Yu wouldn't change their mind just because of the weapon. Su Yu said, "This heaven weapon is merely an early heaven weapon. I am trying to make it a divine weapon. How I long for another battle where I can harvest even more Invincibles." The spire head asked, "Do you want these words to be spread as well?" "Yes." Su Yu said, "Make them aware that I urgently need a battle for more blood essence and carrier treasures. This is the fastest way for me to grow. I'm running out of time." Content originally comes from N0velFire.ɴet The spire head was still confused, but he agreed since this was Su Yu's request, "Sure. But I need some time to do it properly." "That won't be a problem." Su Yu cupped his fists, "Thank you, Spire Head." "That's only natural." Then, the spire head left. After the spire head left, Wan Tiansheng appeared and asked, "What disaster are you courting now?" Su Yu laughed, "Nothing at all. Since I want to sell something like the nine-leaf skylotus, I need to make it clear that I'm in need of something extremely rare, right? I call this the marketing before the sale. I need them to know about my urgent need for carrier treasures and blood essence. I believe some experts have accumulated some of these treasures. "They might claim that I am a demon for forging such a demonic weapon, but they will still conveniently forget about the matter when the nine-leaf skylotus is available for sale. What's more important than improving their own strength with the skylotus? Why should they care about how demonic I am? Nothing smells better than the increase of one's own strength." "What? What smells good?" The little furball hurriedly jumped out and asked after hearing the keyword. Su Yu ignored the question and stuffed the furball back inside his head. Wan Tiansheng laughed and said, "You sure are brazen. Marketing...true. You need to let everyone know about what you lack for this to work." He asked, "As for the record character, Heavendoom might not hand it over willingly. That is a supreme treasure, a component of a divine weapon. It can be used as a heaven weapon independently. Also, are you really going to hand it to the Heavenly Overseer Marquis? After refining the Heavenly Hunt Index, he will definitely grow stronger. You're courting more trouble for yourself." "We shall see." Su Yu said, "I can't decide before even getting the record in my hands, right? I'll visit Lord Heavendoom shortly. In any case, I believe that character is somewhat related to me." Su Yu laughed, "Yes. In short, it is mine in the first place." Wan Tiansheng was left speechless. How was everything his? The Myriad Realms were his. Even the treasures were all his. The kid was getting more and more greedy. Su Yu was not concerned about Wan Tiansheng's thoughts. Only now did he know that Heavendoom had obtained a component of the Heavenly Hunt Index. Record and visual, combined into the character catalog. Only now did Su Yu know that the visual character came from the Celestial Chasm Pseudo Emperor while the record character came from the Bountiful Treasure General. "Record and visual..." Su Yu muttered to himself repeatedly. Record. Visual. Catalog. The golden book in his head. He had once suspected that the Heavenly Hunt Index was essentially a death list. Now, it was proven that he was right. Thinking of his own Mark of Civilization, Su Yu suddenly had the idea of forging such a list for himself as well. But the difficulty would probably be quite high. Perhaps the golden book was related to all that. Perhaps they used to be one. The book could very well be the Mark of Civilization of the previous Time Sage. In that case, the Culture King must be the Time Sage. "The Martial King's name was Tai Shan. The Culture King and the Time Sage was the same person. Old Zhou might be the Martial Emperor..." Su Yu felt like he had learned a lot recently. "As for the golden book...why is it in my head?" How odd. Could this be considered an inheritance of the Culture King? Or was it the inheritance of the Time Sage? Su Yu became more and more certain that the golden book in his head was the previous Mark of Civilization. Before long, Su Yu arrived at Heavendoom City. There, he saw Tian He. Yes. Tian He had returned from the mansion. Su Yu never cared for Tian He previously, but he looked visibly excited when he met Tian He this time. He asked, "Mayor Tian He, I didn't see you in the Luminous Domain Mansion. Where were you?" Tian He had a complicated expression as he sighed and said, "Don't talk about it anymore. I have returned empty-handed. You can't imagine what I found there." He switched to voice transmission, as though he was sharing the greatest secret ever, "You won't believe this. I was accidentally teleported to a treasure land not recorded anywhere. That place was massive, and it was completely devoid of people. And there were divine weapons in there. Yes. Divine weapons. Several of them. At first, I thought that was a mountain range. But eventually, I noticed that the mountain range was actually a weapon." With a look of profound shock, he continued, "Divine weapon! It took a punch from me completely unharmed! I flew along the mountain range for what felt like forever...Ultimately, I reached a conclusion." Heavendoom explained, "The gigantic divine weapon was actually similar to a bone. It must have been forged by the primitive experts during an era even older than the ancient past. They must have fought with bones back then. You can't imagine this, right?"
