Chapter 209 [People of the Holy Land] Double-length chapter

After exchanging a glance with Su Yu, Hua Xinghai, who was directly pulled into the illusion realm, is currently undergoing a terrifying ordeal in the illusion.
Looking at the environment he was in, Hua Xinghai felt extremely frightened in his heart.
As a martial lord who had comprehended the realm of illusions, Hua Xinghai naturally discovered that he had fallen into the illusory world constructed by his opponent.
Here is the translation to English, preserving the original HTML tags:It's just that it was discovered, but whether one can break free from this world is another matter altogether.
At this time, Hua Xinghai, who was tied to the iron pillar and unable to move from head to toe, saw a guy with a bull's head and a guy with a horse's head walking towards him holding torture instruments.
Here is the translation with original HTML tags preserved:Coupled with the hideous smiles on their faces, Hua Xinghai only felt a chill running down his spine.
Confronted by the approaching ox-headed and horse-faced demons, Hua Xinghai desperately tried to break free from the shackles of the illusion in order to regain his ability to move.
Here is the translation with original HTML tags preserved:Unfortunately, his attainment in illusions was far too lacking compared to Su Yu.
Although the level of Su Yu's mastery of the Rules of Illusion was still no match for the Rules of Yin and Yang and the Rules of Five Elements, it was still a breeze for him to casually subdue Hua Xinghai who had not mastered any Rules.
After pulling Hua Xinghai's spiritual thoughts into the illusory world, Su Yu then turned his gaze directly towards Ji Yanran.
If Su Yu couldn't see through this little trick of hers, that would be strange indeed.
"I'm not afraid of death."
Upon hearing Su Yu's words, a trace of sorrowful bitterness flashed across Ji Yanran's face.
"I used to be afraid, but not anymore." Withstanding the immense pressure from Su Yu's gaze, Ji Yanran replied in a deep voice.
The others sitting in the conference room at this moment also held their breath upon hearing the exchange between the two.
"He came to spar with me, how about you guys!" Su Yu, shifting his gaze away from Ji Yanran, turned his head to look at the rest.
As soon as Su Yu spoke these words, the temperature in the entire conference room seemed to have dropped by several degrees. Except for Ji Ruoyan, who was standing behind Su Yu and didn't feel much, the rest of the people's bodies trembled slightly.
At this moment, an incomparably enormous pressure sealed off the entire conference room and pressed down on all of them.
"Impossible, impossible, how could he be a Martial King realm existence!"
Wu Yan and the others, who were fully mobilizing their own power of mind to resist the oppressive force of the rules emanating from Su Yu's body, roared in unison in their hearts.
What else could it be if not the Martial King realm, to be able to overwhelm everyone with one's own strength alone? Even those at the Half-King realm don't possess such power!
From the moment Su Yu entered the conference room, he had no intention of letting anyone present off the hook.
Therefore, regardless of any ulterior motives or other plans that the people of the Nine Great Families might have had in their minds, they were all useless against Su Yu.
This is the advantage of being powerful. No matter how you scheme, I simply don't play by the rules and flip the table at the drop of a hat.
Immediately, before everyone could react, a vast illusory rule power emanating from Su Yu's body directly enveloped the entire conference room.
In an instant, everyone present except Ji Ruoyan was dragged into the illusory space constructed by Su Yu.
At this moment, even Hua Xinghai, who had not yet passed through the first layer of the tongue-pulling hell illusion, suddenly saw many figures appear in this terrifying illusory world.
After seeing clearly who these people were, Hua Xinghai instantly felt that having his tongue pulled out didn't seem so painful anymore.
Perhaps this is the so-called "it's more fun to enjoy together than to enjoy alone"!
Of course, Hua Xinghai, who was still undergoing the extreme punishment of having his tongue pulled out, could only have some mental activities, as he was unable to speak.
The members of the nine great families, who were all pulled into the illusory world and tied to the bronze pillars, showed extremely terrified expressions on their faces.
Because they had already seen the utterly miserable state of Hua Xinghai, who was currently being tortured.
"Ah!" At this moment, a shrill scream resounded directly within the illusory space.
It turned out that a cute little darling's tongue had been clamped by the transformed ox-head and horse-face guards of the underworld.
Here is the translation with original HTML tags preserved:Outside this conference room, except for Su Yu and Ji Ruoyan themselves, everyone else had fallen into a state of unconsciousness.
"What happened to the young master and the others?" Ji Ruoyan, who was standing behind Su Yu and looking a bit dazed, couldn't help but ask curiously.
"They were sent to a good place for reformation. I believe that they should realize their mistakes while inside. When they come out, they should have a change of heart and start a new life."
Here is the English translation with the original HTML tags preserved:After hearing this, Su Yu took a small sip of the tea in his cup and slowly spoke.
"Oh, I see." Upon hearing these words, Ji Ruoyan nodded with a somewhat puzzled look.
Then, Su Yu revealed a thread of his spiritual thoughts within the derivative illusory space of the Illusion God Child.
The moment Su Yu appeared, the people who were tied to the copper pillars, unable to move and with painful expressions on their faces, suddenly began to tremble slightly.
However, when Su Yu, whose spiritual thoughts were manifested, saw this scene, no trace of pity appeared on his face.
Su Yu, who had probed some of these people's memories, naturally knew the purpose of their coming.
Thus, as time passed in the illusory world, Hua Xinghai and the others experienced punishments such as the Hell of Tongue Extraction, the Hell of Scissors, and the Hell of Iron Trees.
Every time they enter a new Punishment Hell, their mental strength weakens considerably.
The spiritual essence that flows out of them is absorbed by the illusory space and used to reinforce it.
It must be said that as Su Yu's strength increases, the power that the Illusory God Child can exert is also becoming stronger and stronger.
When Su Yu comprehends the rules of illusion, he can use the power of the rules to drive the power of the Illusory God Child, thus not needing to consume the God Child's original power.
As Su Yu noticed that the mental bodies of those individuals had deteriorated to a certain extent, he directly implanted special seeds of rules within their mental bodies.
Although forcibly enslaving a martial king who had comprehended the power of rules was somewhat difficult, for people like Hua Xinghai who had not yet grasped the power of rules, Su Yu did not need to expend much effort to control them.
Soon, everyone had the Seed of Rules implanted in their bodies by Su Yu.
Su Yu did not intend to kill all these people. At his level of power, killing them would be as easy as a slap of his hand. However, sometimes keeping them alive could achieve better results.
After all, to control those families, someone must help Su Yu manage them!
And these elite descendants from the nine great families are the nails that Su Yu has driven into the opposition's inner circle.
Here is the translation with the original HTML tags preserved:When Su Yu's strength reaches the level of a Titled Martial King, it will be time for him to begin his conquest of the King's Continent.
For now, he must not alert the enemy prematurely. If he were to provoke the elders of the Ten Great Families to surround and attack him, Su Yu would have no choice but to flee.
Although Su Yu is not afraid of the old fogeys from the forbidden areas of the ten great families in a one-on-one situation, he fears that the other party might gang up on him, as sometimes two fists can hardly beat four hands.
After Su Yu withdrew his spirit from the illusory space, he also threw out the spirit bodies of the others from the illusory space.
The people whose spiritual bodies had returned to their respective physical bodies were all pale-faced, showing that they had not yet recovered from the torment of the Eighteen Hells.
"Greetings, Master." Among the crowd, Ji Yanran, who had the weakest strength but the most tenacious mental power, was the first to regain her senses. She then directly bowed to Su Yu.
Here is the translation to English, preserving the original HTML tags:Upon hearing Ji Yanran's voice, the others immediately reacted and bowed in unison towards Su Yu.
There was no other way around it, as Su Yu's methods were simply too abnormal.
The Rule Seed that Su Yu had implanted in everyone's body was like a living demon. Once they harbored any ill intentions towards Su Yu, this thing would drain their life force and spiritual energy.
It's like a device more terrifying than a time bomb was installed inside their bodies.
At this moment, Ji Ruoyan, who was standing behind Su Yu, covered her mouth in shock.
The current situation on the field is indeed quite shocking.
The people in the conference room at this moment are no small fries! They are all elite descendants from the top families in the King's Continent!
Now that they have all been captured at once, if this news were to spread back to the Monarch Continent, it would definitely cause a severe upheaval.
"As for Xiao Yan and the others, I'll leave them in your charge. If anyone disobeys, just crush the small orbs representing their respective spiritual thoughts."
Here is the translation to English, preserving the original HTML tags:After everyone came back to their senses, Su Yu casually tossed a storage ring to Ji Ruoyan behind him.
Good heavens, with Su Yu's toss, the hearts of everyone present were left hanging in suspense.
Here is the translation to English, preserving the original HTML tags:After Ji Ruoyan somewhat clumsily took the storage ring, the way everyone looked at her instantly changed.
To be honest, there are actually relatively few people who can put life and death out of their minds.
As for Ji Yanran, she indeed put her life and death aside at first, but after experiencing several layers of hellish torture, she changed her mind.
If she could survive, she must inflict the same torture on those elders of the Ji family.
Here is the translation to English, preserving the original HTML tags:As the saying goes, you can offend anyone but women! Because some women can be terrifying when provoked - truly frightening.
Just like Yanan Ji right now, submitting under Yu Su's hand. It's possible that later on she might really be capable of killing off that group of Ji family elders.
"Go ahead and do it with confidence. If anything comes up, send me a message." After standing up and patting Ji Ruoyan on the shoulder, Su Yu spoke in a somewhat casual manner.
"I have some other matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving first." After saying this, Su Yu directly pushed open the conference room door and walked out.
This is truly a hasty arrival and a hasty departure.
At this moment, Ji Ruoyan, who was suddenly entrusted with a heavy responsibility, felt the burden on her shoulders suddenly become heavier.
"Everyone, please register your respective identities within the family, as well as your permission levels, with me first!"
Here is the translation to English, preserving the original HTML tags:After Su Yu's figure completely disappeared from sight, Ji Ruoyan immediately entered work mode.
Faced with the decisive and efficient Ji Ruoyan, no one dared to say no, after all, their life and death were now in her hands!
Here is the translation to English, preserving the original HTML tags:In the time that followed, Ji Ruoyan made Ji Yanran her assistant, after all they were both from the Ji family, so it was more convenient to work together.
Ji Ruoyan was not so petty as to insist on putting Ji Yanran in a deadly situation. The two of them simply didn't see eye to eye with each other before, and there seemed to be no other conflicts between them.
Here is the English translation with the original HTML tags preserved:While everyone in the conference room was fully cooperating with Ji Ruoyan's work.
Su Yu, who had already left the Great Zhou Dynasty and appeared in the sea, showed a trace of confusion on his face.
The reason why Su Yu left in a hurry just now was that he received a message from Zhou Yi, saying that within the monitoring range of the Tianji Instrument, a magic vessel with the presence of a high-level king had appeared.
After locking onto the location of that Dharma vessel through the Tianji Instrument, Su Yu directly summoned the Ghost Ship and entered the space interlayer.
With the appearance of such a high-level existence in his own territory, Su Yu naturally had to go and take a look.
Meanwhile, on the Dharma vessel that had entered the monitoring range of the Heavenly Mechanism Instrument, there was a scene of singing and dancing, as if it were the travel ship of a great personage.
Su Yu, who quickly shuttled through space via the Ghost Ship, appeared near this Dharma vessel.
After storing the Ghost Ship within his body, Su Yu approached the other party's vessel from the space interlayer.
As long as no existence at the level of the Supreme Martial King or above appeared, Su Yu was completely confident in his ability to handle the opponent.
At this moment, inside the luxurious cabin of the magic tool ship, behind a young man wearing splendid clothes and a liuli crown sitting in the main seat, a trace of confusion suddenly appeared on the face of an elderly man in a purple robe.
However, after scanning the crowd inside the cabin, the old man in purple robe slightly shook his head, suspecting that it was just his own illusion.
"This old thing is quite vigilant." At this time, Su Yu, who had already entered the cabin and was staying in the space interlayer, thought to himself after noticing the high-level king's movement.
[Peng Clan]
Name: Jin Huo
Age: 249
Realm: Low-level Demon King.
Power: Sacred Golden Roc Mountain.
Laws: Law of Gold, Law of Speed.
......。
After glancing at the leading young man, Su Yu also discerned his information.
It turns out to be a Peng Bird Demon King, no wonder it has a hooked nose like an eagle.
As for that high-level king, it is an elder of the Peng Clan, probably serving as this guy's guardian.
Inside the luxurious cabin, Su Yu also observed the information of all the other creatures sitting below the Peng Bird.
With just one glance, Su Yu saw all kinds of powerful demon incarnations, including those from the Eagle Clan, Feather Clan, and others, all of which were related to the lineage of flying creatures.
"Holy Son, we have received a message from the Holy Land, requiring us to hunt down those so-called outsiders from beyond the heavens. We wonder if the Holy Son has any brilliant strategies."
At this moment, a powerful demon suddenly rose from below and spoke.
"If we encounter humans, we can kill them without mercy."
Hearing the words of his subordinate, Jin Huo directly gave a solution.
For Jin Huo, a holy son of the Roc Clan's sacred land, humans in his eyes were not much different from livestock. So, when faced with such a task assigned by the sacred land, Jin Huo, who was traveling outside, naturally chose the plan of slaughtering humans, as it was the most time-saving and effortless option.
As for killing too many and whether it would cause hostility from the human sacred land, Jin Huo didn't care about this point at all.
