Chapter 969: Chapter 429: Humans Turn Against Each Other, Seeking to Kill Su Tu!! (Part 2)

In the next moment, he was rendered speechless, a sense of moisture emanating from his eyes, with two crimson tracks of blood trailing down his cheeks.

Crack, crack, crack!!

Around his eyes, countless cracks swiftly appeared; his eyes could no longer bear what he had seen, and the Eye of Cause and Effect shut immediately.

The Cause and Effect of Godhood abruptly vanished, and in this final moment, a calm voice penetrated through the closed causal network, reaching directly into Su Tu’s heart.

"Wrong? Whose fault is it? No one is at fault; it’s merely a struggle between life and death, a fight for survival. We who come later have no right to judge right from wrong; whether you advance or retreat, we have no right to advise you. Everything depends on your true heart!!"

Though the voice was calm, it hid a murderous intent more frenzied than any previous voice.

At this moment, Su Tu’s eyes were blood-red, filled with threads of blood. If he were to look any longer, his eyes would be utterly obliterated.

Yet, despite the great cost paid, Su Tu felt no regret as Eternal Life activated, instantly healing his wounds.

Everything he had just witnessed appeared before his eyes.

There were formidable heroes of the Human Race, each exuding an incredibly terrifying aura, with strength only slightly inferior to Su Tu’s.

It’s important to know that Su Tu had the advantage of Skills and had recently undergone the Golden Liquid transformation. His strength was overwhelmingly superior to the contemporary, capable of contending with and even fighting against a Daoist Master.

But those innumerable Human Race heroes hanging from the great tree of causality were only slightly weaker than him, which was utterly astounding.

Even more shocking to Su Tu was that above those elites suspended like green leaves on the tree were forty-two even more powerful figures.

If the others were green leaves, then these forty-two figures were the fruits on this great tree.

Each one carried a breathtaking aura, commanding, powerful, and unparalleled; each person seemed the protagonist of the world, compelling attention just by standing there.

Should they awaken, even Su Tu was uncertain about defeating one of them.

Forty-two powerful beings, forty-two skeletons, the numbers matched perfectly, and Su Tu was sure these forty-two figures were the ancestral heroes guiding his path.

Su Tu had previously considered that this world had likely experienced countless cycles, and it was impossible that only forty-two predecessors reached here.

Now it seemed true; those countless figures were all the Human Race talents who had reached here, and those forty-two were the strongest among them.

Only they had the right to break the cycle here and leave traces.

Yet, these heroes, illustrious figures, and predecessors who had reached this point just like him were all suspended from the great tree formed by the Cause and Effect of Godhood.

This was precisely what the World Light desired!!! This was also the reason the World Light allowed the Human Race to enter.

The Cause and Effect of Godhood for all races and the talents of the Human Race as its fruits!!!

At this moment, Su Tu could almost be certain that this so-called Blood Throne was undoubtedly a conspiracy, and everything about the True King Competition was a grand scheme by the World Light.

All races were merely its pawns!!!

It was all too terrifying, so terrifying that just a glimpse of the truth was unbearable for Su Tu, nearly shattering the Eye of Cause and Effect.

Perhaps this was why the predecessors desperately warned followers not to move forward. But...

What about those predecessors urging them forward?

Su Tu did not believe those predecessors could not see through all this; they must have realized the situation yet still chose to advance.

Something must have happened amongst them, creating such a significant division.

And when the Eye of Cause and Effect closed and the last voice echoed, it particularly captured Su Tu’s attention.

Because the words spoken by the voice did not appear on any previously inscribed bones.

It was an unheard-of forty-third voice.

An indescribable expression emerged in Su Tu’s eyes.

Upon re-listening to the words of those predecessors, their hidden profound meaning was too heavy....

Yet now he couldn’t fully open the Inference of Heaven, unable to contemplate everything from an absolute macro perspective, and this was not the appropriate place because....

Gurgle~

Without giving Su Tu more time for thought, the ground in the distance became incredibly porous, producing a sound like bursting mud bubbles, and then countless twisted, pale hands extended outward, directly grabbing the corpses of the foreign race prodigies.

Those hands grasped the corpses and then ascended into the air, clasping together and grinding the bodies to dust; thereafter, one head after another rose from the ground.

Buzz buzz buzz!!

These heads spun rapidly in the air while those twisted pale hands began to merge, forming a giant pale face, a massively expanded human visage.

But, bizarrely, the face bore only a large mouth, devoid of any other features.

The heads spun faster and faster until finally transforming into a stream of light blasting towards the pale head.

And then...

The large mouth slowly opened, and a crimson tongue extended, coming before Su Tu like a red carpet, with constantly rolling murky air upon it, inducing unease.

And at the end of that mouth, the earlier blood-red oversized door reemerged.

But this time, the door was open, and behind it, that blood-red throne stood quietly.

Surrounded by blood-red light, the throne was illuminated, resembling a corona-like aura, bizarre yet sacred, compelling one to approach upon sight.

A dangerous yet fatal attraction emanated from the throne.

The previously focused Human Race prodigies, at that instant, seemed to sense something, each standing up, involuntarily looking towards the throne.

A touch of crimson appeared at the bottom of their eyes, with deep and pure desire occupying everyone’s heart.

At this moment, in everyone’s eyes, a seemingly infinite ascending staircase appeared on the throne, with each step glowing with a heart-stirring light.

A voice echoed, informing them that by stepping on these stairs, power, wealth, authority, the future of the Human Race, and the entirety of the Star River would be yours to command and dominate!!

Those seeking greater strength saw a road more potent than the Martial Arts Dao; those desiring resources and wealth seemed found an endless sea of gold surging towards them; those lusting after power envisioned all races submitting, the Human Race ascending to the heavens!!

Countless scattered thoughts, innumerable trivialities, amalgamated into two words...

Ascension to Divinity!!!

Without any warning, no sound at all, not even knowing who moved first.

It was known, only that in the third second of the throne’s appearance...

The Human Race prodigies simultaneously exploded into action, rushing towards the throne, eyes filled with crimson, and anything standing in their path became their enemy.

Bang!!

Rumble!!!

They hesitated not at all, using the scarce True Qi remaining within them, striking at the comrades they had recently shared life and death with, each move and form carried lethal ruthlessness.

All of it happened too fast, Su Tu wished to prevent it, but the moment the thought emerged, everyone in the vicinity seemed to perceive something.

They simultaneously halted their actions, turning to face Su Tu, their crimson eyes devoid of any past emotions, holding only pure desire and savagery for Ascension to Divinity.

In that instant, Su Tu felt everyone’s hostility crashing towards him, his strength provoking everyone’s enmity.

A thought seemed to surface in everyone’s heart.

As long as Su Tu lives, Ascension to Divinity is hopeless!!

Then, like a pack of wolves, the Human Race turned on each other, charging towards the ’king’ who had previously protected them.
