Tribulation of Myriad Races Chapter 840: Eastpart City (1)

Chapter 840: Eastpart City (1)

The world was spinning.

It was as though one was walking through the river of time itself. Darkness and light twisted and warped everywhere.

With a flash, Su Yu opened his eyes again. But everything around him seemed to have changed. The sky above was dotted with countless stars. It was neither day or night.

In the Allheaven Battlefield, night and day could be hard to differentiate. No sun had ever graced the sky above the Allheaven Battlefield. Rather, the sky was eternally adorned by countless twinkling stars.

Standing on the formation, some of the people were throwing up. Those who had visited the Allheaven Battlefield before were better off as this sensation wasn’t something new for them. Su Yu was also doing fine as the teleportation wasn’t able to put much pressure on his body.

While everyone was still blanking out from the sudden change of scenery, a voice rang out, “Line up and get your papers ready. Those who are here for military purposes will be prioritized.”

Su Yu calmed himself and looked up at the starry sky. What a beautiful sky. He then scanned his surroundings, but he couldn’t see anything apart from a seemingly endless sea of barracks. Countless armored soldiers could be seen patrolling the area.

Su Yu and the group of newcomers were all standing atop a massive formation resembling a trigram. To the front of them were several Mountainseas. These Mountainseas were the soldiers in charge of inspecting all the visitors. When traveling between the Human Realm and the Allheaven Battlefield, one would be subjected to double inspection. This was a precaution against any intrusion by the myriad races.

Su Yu could also feel countless waves of Sunmoon willpower sweeping through them. These Sunmoons did not perform a detailed scan on any of them, but even a surface scan was enough for a Sunmoon to notice anything suspicious.

“Are the Invincibles not inspecting us as well?”

Su Yu was unsure. It wasn’t like his Perception Jade could detect the prying of Invincibles. At the moment, his Perception Jade was in a chaotic state as there were simply too many experts involved in the inspection. The jade was filled with so many dots that it might as well be completely useless.

Furthermore, the experts inspecting them were standing right in front of them. What was the point of looking at the jade?

Each of the experts conducting the inspection was clad in armor and a metallic helmet with a red feather on it. One of them loudly said, “Since some of you are here for the first time. I will give you a simple introduction.

“Most of the people coming here here can be grouped into three main categories. Firstly, they are deployed here to join the army by their respective prefectures. If you fit this criteria, report to your army directly after this. Do not run off somewhere else. Secondly, they are here to try their luck and gather some resources yet they are also too weak and lack the courage to travel alone. If this is you, go to the Allheaven Office later. There are plenty of people like you waiting for suitable team members over there. Of course, when you’re there, the military will charge you a fee for the protection provided to you. At wartime, the military also has the right to conscript you into the army.

“Thirdly, the unaffiliated cultivators. The lone travelers. If you are one of them, you are not allowed to stay on the military base for long. There are some rest stops out there for you to rest, so you can make use of those places. You are not allowed to enter any military base without permission. Any trespasser will be killed.”

At this point, the expert’s tone turned cold as he said, “This is one of the headquarters of humanity in the Allheaven Battlefield. This place is mainly for the military. You are not allowed to stay here for long. Not far ahead of this base, there is a small city. There, you can rest, buy, or sell. None of you are allowed to set up camp near the headquarters. You may enter the city if you need rest.”

After listing a long list of rules, an intense burst of light erupted from the eyes of the expert as he scanned the crowd of newcomers. H coldly said, “And lastly, you are not allowed to fight among each other here. It doesn’t matter if you are enemies. If you really want to kill, go beyond the front lines. Once you’re out of our territory, you may do whatever you want. Beyond the Vanguard Regiment’s encampment, even if you kill each other, nobody will care.”

After going beyond the Vanguard Regiment’s encampment, they would officially step out of the territory under humanity’s control. Humanity would no longer have any say there as the other races would be the ones in control outside the human territory.

Naturally, despite laying claim over the entire eastern sector, the eastern sector was still too large for humanity to effectively control. After spending some time listing out the rules of the place, the soldiers continued the inspection.

Su Yu focused but couldn’t sense anyone examining him in detail. He wondered if Great Qin King was simply not around or if weaklings like them were simply not important enough to warrant the king’s attention. There was also the possibility that he had simply failed to sense anything when Great Qin King was scanning the newcomers.

In any case, Su Yu had not felt anything. Great Qin King was supposed to return to the headquarters today to reward some soldiers. Su Yu wondered if Great Qin King was already here.

Coincidentally, someone among the crowd softly asked, “Sir, I heard Great Qin King will be inspecting the headquarters today. In fact, we have chosen to come today just so we can witness his splendor…”

With the metallic helmet the military official was wearing, one couldn’t see his expression. But from the tone of his voice, one could tell that he had brightened up considerably as he said, “Do you think that Great Qin King will walk around shining like the sun when inspecting the headquarters? Perhaps he’s already in here. You have simply not noticed him.”

The crowd felt somewhat regretful. They really wanted to take a look at the renowned Great Qin King. That was someone who had watched over the entrance to the Human Realm for nearly four hundred years. He had never stopped guarding humanity since a connection was established between the Human Realm and the Allheaven Battlefield.

The other Invincibles would be rotated in and out of the Allheaven Battlefield, but Great Qin King wouldn’t. His presence was so important that just by leaving, he could cause the army morale to drop. One could say that he was the most respected Invincible of humanity.

Su Yu was also regretful, but at the same time, he was also relieved. The absence of an Invincible would benefit him the most. Of course, he still wanted to see this legendary figure for himself. After all, this was the biggest pillar of humanity.

Unfortunately, Great Qin King was not strong enough to suppress all the other human Invincibles. Otherwise, humanity would have been united long ago and all those troubles in the Human Realm wouldn’t have happened. Great Qin King was considered strong even among the Invincibles, but he wasn’t strong enough to suppress everyone alone.

Before long, it was Su Yu’s turn to be inspected. Those in front of him had yet to leave. All these people would be split into different groups. After the inspection, they would all be led away together.

The Mountainsea official started checking his papers.

After a moment, the official said, “Cui Lang, first-stage Cloudbreach, a weaponsmith from Great Ming. Not bad at all. The army is currently lacking weaponsmiths. Are you interested in joining the army?”

Su Yu shook his head, “No. I prefer my freedom. I still wish to travel more and see the world.”

Since he was facing a weaponsmith, the official was quite friendly. He said, “Travel and see the world? Be careful lest you lose your head while sightseeing. You might not have your freedom in the army, but at least safety will be guaranteed.”

At this time, someone else softly reminded the official, “Sir, Master Cui is on the cusp of the earth grade. Not long ago, he forged a weapon with seventy-two golden stripes.”

“Hmm?”

That information was not available in the papers he was checking. Here at the Allheaven Battlefield, they wouldn’t receive the latest news in the Human Realm immediately. Thus, the Mountainsea was quite surprised. So this was a pseudo earth weaponsmith.

This was the type of talent they urgently needed!

He hurriedly said, “If you’re interested in joining the army, you may visit the Recruitment Office at any time. Even if you don’t want to fully join the army, you can still freely accept some weaponsmithing missions from the Missions Office. This way, you can still contribute to humanity without joining the army. Naturally, you will be paid fairly for your work.”

“Thank you. I will keep that in mind.”

After going through the rest of the documents, the Mountainsea said, “This is not your first time here, but it has been a few years. You might not know how things are currently. The places that are safe back then might not be safe anymore. Before leaving, I suggest you spend some time in the city and gather more information.”

Su Yu nodded again. This was a reminder given out of kindness, so he was more than happy to accept it. Furthermore, the truth was that he had never been here before. Cui Lang was the one who was here before, not him.

After thinking about it, Su Yu asked, “Is Prince Zhu Hongwen of Great Ming here as well? Do you know his current location, Sir? I wish to pay him a visit.”

“Him?” The Mountainsea thought about it and said, “I’m not sure about that. You can try to ask around in the city. We aren’t informed about the arrangements of the various armies here.”

That was understandable as that was the type of information only the higher-ups would worry about. Furthermore, it was actually very rare for someone to come here just to pay some important individual a visit. Thus, most of the regular soldiers would not pay too much attention to the whereabouts of these important individuals.

Su Yu had not realized that even Cui Lang, someone whose identity he was borrowing, was actually quite an important person as well. He was a student of a Sunmoon and a weaponsmith. In terms of status, he was far above a large number of cultivators.

“Alright. Thank you again, Sir.”

Su Yu said nothing else and joined the group waiting to be brought away. This was the group for all the lone travelers. They would all be brought into a city near the military base they were currently in. That city was known as the Eastpart City.

Leaving the city would be the same as leaving the main headquarters, or to be precise, the area labeled as the main headquarters. That was also when one would be officially considered to have departed the Human Realm. Thus, that city came to be known as the Eastpart City.

After leaving this military base, these people would not be allowed to enter again unless they were returning to the Human Realm. They also needed to go through a series of inspections before they would be allowed back. Back when Hong Tan was on his way back, this was where someone had attempted to stop him.

Su Yu was unaware of that. Then again, he probably wouldn’t feel anything if he found out about that. Mountainsea? What was so special about that? This place was filled with Mountainseas.

Nobody knew he would harbor such a thought. But he had seen and experienced too many things. He had met Sunmoons and even Invincibles before. And he had also seen a lot of Mountainseas before. Thus, his perception had skewed considerably, thinking that Mountainseas were nothing special. But the truth was that any Mountainsea would be among the strongest experts around everywhere.

There were only so many Mountainseas here because this was the headquarters and the location where the portal to return home could be found. In fact, as a weaponsmith in the Cloudbreach, most people would also consider Su Yu a top expert.

It was worth noting that there were even Infinite Strength cultivators in their group. A majority of them were Skysoars, and only a few of them were Cloudbreaches.
