Chapter 992: Faction of the Heaven’s Craftsmen

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

As the evil name popped into Su Yu’s mind, the shadows hurtled towards him like mad winds.

From afar, he could discern three youthful figures riding on some kind of wooden birds that had never been seen anywhere in the Blessed and Heavenly Lands. They were heading straight for the edge of the sky.

The wooden birds were delicately crafted and sculpted in a picturesque, realistic manner. Even their wings bore a great resemblance to a real bird’s. If it weren’t for Su Yu’s ability to see through the internal wooden structure of the birds, he would have been tempted to think that they were real, too.

The speed of the wooden birds was extremely fast, reaching that of a ninth-grade Almighty with ease.

“They must be the challengers from the Heaven’s Craftsmen region of the Central Prefecture.” Su Yu could almost decipher their entities by looking at the wooden birds and the clothing of the people on the birds’ backs.

The Heaven’s Craftsmen Region was one of the five great regions of the Central Prefecture. It neighbored the Blessed and Heavenly Lands.

What set it apart from another neighboring region, the Heavenly Knife Region, was that the Heaven’s Craftsmen Region was one of the few regions that could be considered friendly towards the Blessed and Heavenly Lands. One hundred years ago, the Great War between humans and ghosts broke out at the border of the Blessed and Heavenly Lands, and afflicted the Heaven’s Craftsmen Region, causing them to join forces many times. Therefore, the hostile ambiance between the two regions was far less severe if compared to the Heavenly Knife Region.

The owners of the three wooden birds were two men and a woman, with cultivations above the eighth-grade Almighty. They were giving off fairly strong auras. They were probably slightly more powerful than Tang Ling, who was also an eighth-grade Almighty.

The three of them had anxious looks on their faces as if they had encountered something extremely precarious, and they were urging the wooden birds to pick up speed.

The direction in which they were headed happened to be where Su Yu stood.

Su Yu used the power of his eyes and strived to look behind them. He found that a vast cluster of golden daisies was blossoming with pride under the brilliant sunshine. Under the illumination of the sunlight, the flowers were firing countless strips of yellow light, which wove into a patch of sky like rays.

The three wooden birds were placed in the center of the interwoven light rays. One of them was touched by the rays, and it was immediately blown to smithereens. The challenger on top of the wooden bird let out a miserable scream and perished.

Su Yu saw how the challenger’s soul was destroyed along with his body.

An eighth-grade Almighty was one who could stand on his own feet and shoulder great responsibilities, in whichever part of the Jiuzhou continent he was placed. However, here in the Glittering Jewel Wonderland, that challenger hadn’t been able to withstand the rays emitted by a flower!

The other man stretched out his palm and held out a bronze sword with intricate patterns. He slashed it across the air and brutally chopped at the light rays that had appeared before him. Wisps of the remaining light rays flashed across the bronze sword. It turned out that the function of the sword was to absorb attacks, allowing the holder to take the opportunity to sever the enemy’s blows.

The youth had superior sword techniques, and he struck a good balance between tension and relaxation when he used the sword. Amidst the densely packed light rays, the sword shadows were fast and unassailable.

The woman tossed out a pink-colored, delicate lotus. The lotus blossomed fully in midair, and pink petals were released. They surrounded the wooden bird, protecting both the woman and the wooden bird within the flower. However, the defensive capacity of the lotus was rather limited. It could keep them unharmed from a couple of light rays, but the rays were so densely packed that the petals could hardly fend them off.

“Senior Brother Ding Ping!” The women sensed the imminent danger and had no choice but to call for help from the man on the wooden bird nearby.

The man cast a sideways glance at her, and his face fell. He could barely protect himself from the dense light rays. How would he still be able to reach out for her?

“Hang in there, Junior Sister Shayin, I’m coming for you!” the man bellowed, but he showed no sign of approaching her.

Shayin understood that Ding Ping’s hands were tied. She gritted her teeth, and her slender fingers began turning to manipulate the flower petals around the wooden bird. They exploded at once, creating a strong impact. A large number of the light rays were blocked off.

Shayin took the opportunity to bite the tip of her tongue, spilling a mouthful of essence blood on the wooden bird. All of a sudden, the wooden bird accelerated and bolted forward.

Shayin’s pretty face turned pale very quickly. Galvanizing the wooden bird through such means demanded a high price, and it couldn’t be used frequently.

However, right at that moment, a peculiar voice of indiscernible gender was heard from amidst the sea of golden daisies. “How dare you break into my territory and run away!”

The soft voice which resembled Tian Renyao’s made Su Yu’s hairs stand on end.

As the voice spoke, a ray of light three times thicker than usual shot out from the very center of the daisy, at a speed several times faster than the rest. Shayin had hardly freed herself from the rays of light, but now she had been caught up in them again. The rays were about to penetrate the wooden bird and destroy them both.

Right at that moment, a bolt of lightning fell from the skies and landed between the light ray and the wooden bird.

A white-haired, silver-faced man strode out from the lightning bolt.

A head of snowy white hair fluttered in the gaseous waves, with the brilliance of lightning hovering all over his body. It was as though the God of Thunder had arrived.

When faced with the enormous rays of light that were capable of destroying a ninth-grade Almighty, the white-haired, silver-faced man raised his hand and revealed a white-yellow round pearl which he placed it in front of him.

The round pearl wouldn’t budge an inch even when the powerful rays of light struck it. Instead, the rays ricocheted off it. The round pearl remained motionless all the while. Suddenly, the white-haired man’s hand picked up the pearl, and it disappeared without a trace.

Not only was Shayin surprised by the sudden scene, but even the talking Daisy Bao was taken aback. “Another one looking for death! Fine, as you wish!”

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The light rays emitted by the sea of daisies increased in intensity by several times.

“Humph!” Su Yu snorted softly, and wrapped his arms around his chest, forming a subtle, mysterious posture.

All of a sudden, the demonic energy in his body roiled turbulently. Five of the demonic dragons were released, and they began to growl as they hovered all around him.

All of the rays heading toward him were engulfed by the roiling demonic energy radiating from the demonic dragons and vanished into nothingness.

Meanwhile, the demonic dragons unleashed a deafening growl and descended rapidly, reducing numerous daisies to ashes.

It didn’t end there. The demonic dragons drilled into the ground, and before long, a colossal daisy the color of golden yellow materialized from the depths of the ground, snarling.

The gigantic daisy was a thousand-feet in width, forming a clear image of a human face, which was glaring furiously at Su Yu. “You’ve enraged me!”

“So what if I did?” Su Yu said with indifference.

Su Yu thought that the gigantic daisy would be indignant and prepared to fight it with all his might. Much to his jaw-dropping surprise, a human-like look of sheepishness appeared on the face of the gigantic daisy. “I adore charming men like you the most. Come on, be fierce to me, hit me again!”

Su Yu’s face froze, and he shivered.

“Speak up! I love powerful men the most, and I’m more than willing to give you my heart,” the giant daisy said bashfully.

Su Yu sensed a clamor going on in his heart. He finally understood what Yun Yazi had meant by the endless troubles faced by men in the flower yard.

Did these humanized flowers never look in the mirror?

Su Yu felt cold chills all over his body. With a light tap of his feet, he turned and leaped onto Shayin’s wooden bird. “Miss, aren’t you leaving?” he said.

Shayin was stunned by Su Yu’s aggressive tactics. By the time she was able to finally collect her thoughts, Su Yu was already on top of her wooden bird. Hurriedly, she said, “Oh, oh, alright, I will activate it now.”

Swish!

The wooden bird took flight right away.

Ding Ping got a chance to gasp for air, before activating his wooden bird and quickly catching up with them.

Half an hour later, the two wooden birds stopped on a hill full of flowers.

“My name is Ding Ping. I came from the Heaven’s Craftsmen Region, Faction of the Heaven’s Craftsmen. This is my junior sister, Shayin. Dare I ask, sir, what is your name?” Ding Ping came to Shayin’s side right after alighting from the bird.

He kept her behind him, seeming to be on his guard against Su Yu.

Su Yu glanced at him nonchalantly, and his gaze fell upon the wooden bird.

Ding Ping was curious as to why this stranger would have lent them a helping hand for no reason? It was definitely because of the wooden bird.

Su Yu had weaknesses when it came to speed and body techniques. This wooden bird had the speed comparable to a ninth-grade Almighty, so it was a great choice.

“Sir, I am asking you a question.” Ding Ping creased his brows, his tone rather displeased.

He had given up on rescuing Shayin, but the silver-faced man before him managed it. There was no reason for him to be pleased, especially when Shayin was the most beautiful woman of the Heaven’s Craftsmen Faction.

Shayin cast a look at Ding Ping with eyes full of disappointment. She didn’t blame Ding Ping for giving up on her, because he had only just managed to save himself. She didn’t like the way Ding Ping was always jealous of talented people and resented them. Despite his own inferiority, he was blaming others for being stronger than him.

Coming out from behind Ding Ping, Shayin offered Su Yu a polite greeting, and said, “This junior brother has no bad intentions to us, otherwise why would he help us? May I know your name, junior brother? Perhaps I know you.”

Su Yu stared at the wooden bird and answered her dispassionately. “Su Yuxian.”

His surname is Su? Surprise flashed across Shayin’s face, with a little bit of reverence also visible.

Ding Ping seemed to have realized something as well. The look on his face changed slightly, and the traces of displeasure on his face disappeared entirely.

Shayin paused for a moment. “Dare I ask, Junior Brother Su, are you a student of the Supreme Heavenly Demon Faction at the northernmost part of the world?”

Su Yu was still staring right at the wooden bird. “What makes you say that?” he asked indifferently

“The whole world knows that the demonic techniques practiced by the students of the Supreme Heavenly Demon Faction are totally different from the other demon factions,” Shayin said.

“They are known for the pure demonic energy, which is incredibly powerful. I have been observing your demonic energy just now. It was extremely pure, like nothing I have seen before. I suppose you came from the Supreme Heavenly Demon Faction of the Northern continent?” Shayin asked with a smile.

Su Yu raised his brows. Geniuses from other continents are taking part as well?

Being mistaken for a student of the Supreme Heavenly Demon Faction was rather unexpected to him. His demonic energy was pure only because he had extracted it himself from the Extraterrestrial Demon, not because he was a student of the Supreme Heavenly Demon Faction.

Su Yu was reluctant to explain too much. He looked over at the woman who was speaking. At first glance, Su Yu discovered that this woman named Shayin was a rare beauty. His eyes shone. She had a good-looking appearance: a fair complexion, smooth skin, and clear bright eyes. Her figure was slender, willowy and graceful.

In the Red Blood Palace, apart from Bing Wuxin and Bing Wuqing, it was hard to find any other woman who could compare to her.

His astonishment flickered for a short-lived moment and then vanished. Su Yu had seen many gorgeous women. It wasn’t easy for him to fall for anyone now. Staring at the wooden bird, Su Yu asked, “Do you want to sell your wooden birds?”

“Sell our wooden birds?” Shayin was rather surprised, and she looked at Su Yu with fascination. Judging from his earlier performance and the way he had fended off Daisy Bao’s attack, his cultivation should at least be of an eighth-grade Almighty.

Had such a prestigious influence like the Supreme Heavenly Demon Faction never offered any decent aviation treasures to such a remarkable individual?

She would have been surprised to learn that Su Yu didn’t belong to a superb faction like the Supreme Heavenly Demon Faction. Instead, he was merely a student of the Red Blood Palace. In terms of status, the Red Blood Palace wasn’t even as great as the Faction of Heaven’s Craftsmen.

“Are you going to sell?” Su Yu continued to pestering them, his face giving nothing away.

Shayin sighed. It was said that students of the Supreme Heavenly Demon Faction were mostly arrogant. The man before her had only looked her in the eye once since they met.

After pondering for a moment, Shayin said, “It’s a pity, but I can’t sell it to you, junior brother.”

“Why?” Su Yu snapped as he turned his head. He was willing to take it by force.

Shayin seemed to have understood Su Yu’s intention as she sighed. “It’s not that Shayin isn’t willing to repay you for your kindness. In fact, the wooden birds of our Heaven’s Craftsmen race have started recognizing their owners by blood since the stage of refinement. Apart from us, no one would be able to control them. I’ll be cheating you if I sell it to you,” Shayin said.

Is that so? What a pity.

Since it served no benefits to him, Su Yu wouldn’t waste his time on it. “Goodbye!”

“Hold on!” Shayin called Su Yu hurriedly. “Junior brother, if you insist on it, we can still sort it out. But we’ll need you to come with us and meet our eldest senior brother.”

Su Yu’s eyes shone with a shrewd gleam. “Do you actually think that I have no idea about the secret of the Glittering Jewel Wonderland, whereby the probability of acquiring sublimations increases with the number of challengers killed?” Of course Su Yu wasn’t willing to follow them and meet some eldest senior brother. The eldest senior brother of a grand-scale faction like the Faction of Heaven’s Craftsmen would not be someone who was easy to defeat.

“You’re kidding, junior brother. You’re a student of the Supreme Heavenly Demon Faction! How would our Heaven’s Craftsmen Faction dare to lay a finger on you?” Shayin laughed bitterly.

Su Yu caressed his chin and sank into deep contemplation. In fact, he was secretly communicating with Yun Yazi, “Master, could you really modify this flying bird into a Void-navigating treasure?”

Rescuing Shayin and getting the wooden bird was Yun Yazi’s suggestion.

“Haha, would I ever fool you? The crafting techniques of such kind of flying birds are splendid, and the materials used are unique too. They would most probably withstand the force of the Void. It’s a very suitable way for you to save your own life,” Yun Yazi said.

The so-called Void navigation was, in fact, referring to the All Creations Old Monsters’ ability to tear open the Void and teleport.

With only those of the Almighty level and below allowed to participate in the Glittering Jewel Wonderland, wasn’t having the Void-navigating ability equivalent to being in an undefeatable position?

It seemed like Yun Yazi was also trying to figure out ways to safeguard Su Yu’s life, in order to get him prepared for the imminent three ordeals.

“You can even detect the location of your faction peers? If I remember it correctly, the teleportation of the Glittering Jewel Wonderland happens on a random basis,” Su Yu said with raised brows.

“All five yards have extensive scales. Even with the detection pendants, you won’t necessarily be transported to the exact location” Su Yu said.

Shayin cast a strange look at Su Yu and laughed. “You’re joking, junior brother. Even if the Heaven’s Craftsmen Faction is nothing in the eyes of the Supreme Heavenly Demon Faction, we still have some secrets of the secret realm in store!”

“The students transported by the same All Creations Old Monster will have the same scent, and these students can easily pick up the same scent of other students. Besides, they usually won’t be transported to other yards.”

What? The area of transportation can be controlled? And we can actually sense each other’s presence? Mo Tianxuan has never even mentioned this secret!

Su Yu was instantly enraged. “Mo Tianxuan!” That woman really was playing underhand tricks!

Mo Tianxuan had most probably transported him to the flower yard on purpose. Not only could it create trouble for Su Yu, but she was also counting on eliminating Su Yu through the first natural disaster!

Su Yu was itching with hatred. If he got a chance someday, he would certainly punish this willful, unscrupulous woman!

Ding Ping didn’t think Su Yu was asking out of ignorance. Instead, he thought that Su Yu was only asking the question because he looked down on them.

“My two senior brothers and I were heading for our senior brother because we detected his location. We didn’t expect to pass by Daisy Bao’s territory, and that we would be hotly pursued. We’re lucky that you saved us in time,” Shayin said.

Su Yu quietly worked things out. The students of the Heaven’s Craftsmen Faction had been sent in by the same person, hence they had the same scent, and were able to detect each other’s location. Therefore, the students of the Red Blood Palace must have all been sent in by Mo Tianxuan.

Logically speaking, Su Yu should be able to feel their presence. But ever since he came inside, he hadn’t sensed anything at all!

“It’s the imprint that’s acting up!” Su Yu was vexed. Mo Tianxuan had crafted an imprint within his body at the cost of her Original Lifespan!
