<h4>Chapter 980: Storm In Ninestar (3)</h4>


    After spending some time walking on the streets and looking around, Su Yu finally found the other stores mentioned by the old man earlier. He also took the chance to listen to the rumors on the streets.


    The event in Heavendoom City had caused a sensation. Some rather reliable sources were iming that all the Sunmoons there had died. Ultimately, only a few young geniuses were left to walk out of the city. The Invincibles had not entered the city. No battle had broken out.


    The names of the survivors were not kept secret. After all, that was something everyone would know just by looking at the index. Sure, not everyone had an index copy. But it wasn''t so rare that people would barely have one. And such index copy holders could be found in the Empyrean Cloud City as well.


    They only needed to look at the surviving names on the index. People like Mo Duona and Dao Cheng were still alive.


    Su Yu wasn''t surprised. It was only natural for geniuses to be hard to kill. Furthermore, they were also backed by Invincibles. Jiu Xuan was merely too unlucky or she would have survived as well.


    An Mintian could have survived as well. He was only steps away from leaving the city, but he was simply unlucky enough to encounter Su Yu there.


    "They survived..."


    Su Yuughed. It didn''t matter. He could always kill them in the future. He no longer feared these geniuses. Apart from Mo Duona, who still felt stronger than him, he only needed to worry about Dao Cheng who was already a third-stage Mountainsea. That was probably an advancement gained through heavenly rewards. Su Yu wasn''t too worried about that.


    Such a rapid advancement was most likely achieved through the growth of willpower and fusion of apertures. He was certain that Dao Cheng already had at least one fourth-tier character prior to the advancement.


    With such a rapid growth in willpower, it had probably grown without any tempering. Thus, it was unstable. Dao Cheng was able to kill fifth-stage Mountainseas prior to his advancement, but this advancement would probably push him only a little bit forward to kill sixth-stage Mountainseas. He had wasted his potential.


    It was very unlikely that he would be able to kill seventh-stage Mountainseas. If Su Yu stopped suppressing himself, he could have reached the fifth or sixth-stage Cloudbreach Realm easily. But there was no need for that.


    At that point, he would probably stop receiving rewards from killing seventh or eighth-stage Cloudbreaches. His current level was sufficient. He could continue receiving rewards for killing opponents at those levels.


    The Allheaven Battlefield was not a ce where things would be better the higher one''s cultivation was. Most geniuses would only break through when they could no longer suppress their advancement. The more their advancement was suppressed and tempered, the higher above their level they could punch, and the more they would get from the heavenly rewards.


    "Dao Cheng is not dead. He even killed a seventh-stage Sunmoon...interesting. Did he kill Ming He? Long Zhan and Long Wuyou also killed a Sunmoon...at the second stage. But their ranks did not change. Looks like they contributed very little to the kill."


    Su Yu took in all the information silently. He also heard some rumors rted to the Sea of Stars.


    The Sea of Stars was not too far away. One would reach it after traveling around two thousand kilometers away from the city. Meanwhile, the human headquarters was about ten thousand kilometers away. It sounded far, but it was really not far. The in of Desires was the culprit for that. Most people were forced to take a detour around it.


    "Two thousand kilometers. It''s not too far."


    Through Su Yu''s calction, he deduced that he would take about a day or two to reach if he proceeded at a normal pace. The Sea of Stars was massive. That was a ce with numerous minor realm entrances.


    The entrance to the Dragon Realm was also there. Thus, dragons were quitemon there. That was one of the overlords of the Sea of Stars. Thus, he needed to be careful there. The greater dragon race was split into many sub-races, and they also had a lot of vassals under them.


    There were also numerous inds in the Sea of Stars. Some were ownerless and some were not. There were also ancient cities there.


    Su Yu took in all the information he heard. He even purchased more information regarding Sea of Stars from several information peddlers in the city. He even took the chance to purchase some information about the immortals, devils, and divines. That way, he could make it less obvious that he was nning a trip to the Sea of Stars.


    ***


    Su Yu did not leave the city when night arrived again.


    Rather, he started going through all the information he had received to finalize his subsequent route.


    "I need a ce with more geniuses, resources, and opportunities. I also need a ce rarely visited by Invincibles..."


    He listed one requirement after another. It would be even better if he could find a ce unfriendly toward senior experts like the in of Desires. At this point, he would only refer to Sunmoons and Invincibles as experts. As for Mountainseas, he didn''t mind meeting some of them.


    A ce not even Mountainseas could enter was basically a ce for weaklings. What could he even gain from going to a ce like that? As far as Su Yu was concerned, he was not only looking for a ce to hide from his enemies. He also needed a ce he could benefit from visiting.


    After a long time, he finally decided on a spot. Looking at the massive map sprawled in front of him, his gaze settled on a certain ind.


    "Ninestar Ind." Su Yu muttered, "There are nine realm entrances on a single ind. This is extremely rare. Nine races ruled the ind, but they have not been able to decide the dominant party among them. None of them are willing to give up the influence around their realm entrance, so the situation there is rather chaotic.


    "The powers there are part of the Thousand Region Alliance. They don''t have any Invincible, but they have a decent number of Sunmoons. And since there are nine realm entrances, Invincibles rarely go there to avoid any misunderstandings from happening.


    "The Ninestar Ind is not too far away from the Luminous Domain Mansion. Its location is rather strategic. The major races all have their own operating bases there, but they have been careful in maintaining the strength of their bases below a certain level to avoid drawing the hostility of the local powers.


    "But that''s not important. More important, that ce is near the Luminous Domain Mansion. Each time the opening of the mansion draws near, unique treasures will start appearing in the area. A lot of geniuses are already there waiting for the appearance of these treasures."


    Su Yu rubbed his chin. That would be a good ce to go. But would anyone guess that he would be there? After all, all geniuses loved joining such events. Thus, it was actually quitemon for numerous geniuses to be gathered at the same ce.


    Out here, that wasmon knowledge. It was perfectly logical for him to go there after the ancient city incident.


    "Maybe I should find a different ce andmit some murders there first before going?"


    But Su Yu also felt like this would be pointless. So be it. He would just go. There were nine realm entrances there. At worst, he could run into one of the realms and hide himself for a bit.


    There were no Invincibles in these minor realms. Even ninth-stage Sunmoons wouldn''t be able to track him easily if he took care to avoid meeting one of them directly. After deciding on a path of retreat, Su Yu started gathering more information about the ind.


    He wanted to make proper preparations before going. It would be pointless to go without knowing anything.


    ***


    While Su Yu was busy making his preparations.


    Outside Heavendoom City.


    Dao Cheng had been seated cross-legged there for a long while. Finally, he stood up and started moving toward the Sea of Stars.


    Not far away, Tianduo, who was also busy dispelling the death qi in his body, stood up and moved in the same direction as well. Behind them, Mo Duona was busy reading something. When he noticed Tianduo, he asked, "Are you going to the Sea of Stars?"


    "Yes." Tianduo replied without even looking back, "That is the most likely ce for Su Yu to go. He will either be in one of the ancient cities there or the Ninestar Ind. Or he will stay on an ind near the Luminous Domain Mansion. I''ll go take a look."


    "You''ll die if you encounter him." Mo Duona said, "Are you really looking for him?"


    "No. I''m only going there to temper myself." Tianduo said, "If he''s there, chaos will erupt before long. He is much more murderous than anyone else. That will be the best ce for me to temper and strengthen myself. Mo Duona, I won''t remain behind you forever."


    Mo Duona seemed unconcerned. He resumed reading. After a while, he muttered, "Ninestar Ind...nine realm entrances. It is quite likely that he will be there. No Invincibles will visit that ce to avoid provoking the nine realms. That''s a good ce."


    He nodded, agreeing with Tianduo''s judgment. There was a very high possibility that Su Yu would go there.


    Mo Duonaughed, "This time, not many people came. Only some geezers came. How boring. It would only be interesting if people like Zhan Wushuang, Xuan Wuji, and Ming Yue were here as well."


    The chaos Su Yu caused had only killed some geezers. That was boring. All the Heaven Index geniuses were still alive and well. How boring.


    With a smile, Mo Duona took out a voice transmission talisman. "I wonder if they''ll even receive this message. Whatever."


    He sent a message out. Then, he took out his index copy and sent another message, "Notify everyone on Heaven Index that I''m going to the Ninestar Ind. Su Yu might be there. Tell them to join the fun."


    The Heavenly Hunt Pavilion replied, "Is this information urate?"


    "It''s a guess. You guys can verify it yourself." Mo Duona added, "Oh, I almost forgot this. Notify Soulcurse and Qin Fang of the Earth Index as well. Things will only get interesting with more people. After all, the celestial chasm race Soulcurse came from is the nemesis of Ye Batian''s line. It would be boring without Soulcurse there."


    "Alright."


    That was Heavenly Hunt Pavilion''s reply. Shortly after, one genius after another received the message.


    ***


    Meanwhile, Su Yu waspletely unaware that some people were already waiting where he nned to go. All geniuses would think simrly. Any ce with a sufficient level of chaos, a great number of geniuses, and an eptable path of retreat would be a good ce for them.


    Regardless of Su Yu''s n, he would still end up there the moment chaos started erupting there. That wasn''t even an option. All geniuses would be there. If one was a genius, one would not be able to resist going.


    Right after rumors of his next destination were spread, numerous experts started heading toward Ninestar Ind.


    Su Yu still had no idea this was happening. He was still in the nning stage, but the yground had been prepared for him. Even the Heaven Index geniuses were starting to head over.


    Others might fear Su Yu, but that was not the case for them. For these geniuses, killing a fellow Heaven Index genius was a great aplishment they longed to achieve.
