Chapter 1015: Chapter 761: The Bred Pigs_2

"Jiarong, let’s go..." The little snake, transformed from the Three-eyed Feathered God, coiled around Zhang Jiarong’s neck, whispering softly. It was already vaguely aware that Su Yu was definitely not a character to be trifled with. Although he seemed to be only of the Gold Fourth Order, he was filled with unknowns.

Zhang Jiarong was somewhat reluctant to concede, because he clearly had the strength of a Divine Spirit Peak, whereas Su Yu was merely a Fourth Order Gold. However, he had unconditional faith in the words of the Three-eyed Feathered God. He could only huff in displeasure and glanced at Su Yu before preparing to leave.

No sooner had he moved than Su Yu flashed and suddenly blocked his path again.

"What else do you want to do?" Zhang Jiarong bellowed in anger.

Su Yu grinned at him and suddenly a pair of Golden Wings spread out wide from behind.

"Be careful—" the Three-eyed Feathered God shouted, instantly maximizing and mutating into a hundred-meter-long emerald green giant snake. However, Su Yu was well prepared and summoned the Azure Giant God at the same moment. With a wave of its giant palm, it blocked the Feathered God.

Although Zhang Jiarong possessed the power of a peak Divine Spirit, he lacked the actual strength of one. Even if he really had to fight for his life, he was still slightly inferior to Akaski when Akaski first entered the Divine Spirit Realm. How could he possibly respond to Su Yu’s sudden attack?

Before he understood what was happening, two golden beams of Thunder shot out from the abruptly raised Golden Wings behind Su Yu, one positive and one negative, converging on Zhang Jiarong’s body and then exploding.

This time, Su Yu did not use the power of will, nor did he intend to kill Zhang Jiarong. Hence, these two strikes of Thunder, governed by the power of destiny, could not kill Zhang Jiarong. However, the excruciating pain of the high-voltage Thunder strike felt as though it was tearing every inch of Zhang Jiarong’s skin, causing him to emit a heart-wrenching howl before he turned into a charred human-shaped lump of coal and fell from the sky.

Su Yu, unafraid of the backlash of the power of destiny, watched with a smile as Zhang Jiarong, reduced to a charred figure, fell. He calmly said, "Kid, remember this: although I can’t kill you now, I’ll hit you every time I see you in the future. Next time, you’d better not let me see you again."

After speaking, Su Yu turned and soared away, leaving only Zhang Jiarong who was emitting painful, hoarse howls.

With his hands behind his back, Su Yu flew swiftly across the sky, quickly covering thousands of miles. In his mind, Tezcatlipoca laughed heartily, "Kid, why didn’t you take the opportunity to devour that 999 Seed Power? You should know by now that as long as you don’t completely devour it, and don’t kill him, no one from up there should intervene."

Su Yu smiled, "Didn’t you say that it is a waste to devour them now, that we should wait for them to grow up first?"

Tezcatlipoca asked curiously, "These Children of Destiny can constantly devour the power of others to grow, and their evolution is faster than imaginable. Aren’t you afraid their power will grow so strong that you won’t be able to handle them in the future?"

Su Yu smiled faintly and said casually, "Stuff that evolves by relying on devouring power, no matter how powerful it becomes, is useless. Like this Zhang Jiarong just now, although he possesses a terrifying power, I fear that in terms of sheer strength, he may even be stronger than the Maya Pillar God. But when it really comes to a fight... he falls far too short. These beings who rely solely on devouring to grow stronger have never been through life and death trials; like fattened pigs, no matter how fast they grow, they will eventually still be pigs, never a match for a lion tempered by survival in the wild..."

Just as he spoke, he suddenly shuddered to a halt, his face revealing a look of surprise as he said, "Teacher, I’ve thought of a problem, no, no, there is definitely something wrong here."

"What problem?" Tezcatlipoca was slightly astounded.

"It’s the metaphor you used... it reminded me, these hundred thousand Children of Destiny, there’s something fishy about them... Teacher, you should know, no matter what kind of evolution, it requires a solid foundation. It’s not just Ada, the wooden people... and you as well, Teacher, you all taught me the same thing. It’s like building a skyscraper, if the foundation is not solid, the higher the building gets built, the greater the possibility of it collapsing, right?"

Tezcatlipoca hummed in agreement, saying, "That’s indeed the case. The path of evolution is arduous, achieved step by step; there’s no such thing as reaching the sky in one step."

"Right, exactly, but what about these Children of Destiny... They seem to be encouraged by those Category 5 Lifeforms to devour the power of other humans, directly seizing their realms... In doing so... isn’t it just like forcing the plants to grow by pulling them up? Will their foundation be stable? Won’t such a building collapse?"

After hearing Su Yu’s words, Tezcatlipoca pondered deeply for a moment, as if he too realized the problem, and said, "Maybe, because they possess special Seed Power, they are an exception?"

Su Yu shook his head and said, "No, just look at that Zhang Jiarong, it’s clear there’s a problem. His power is definitely strong enough, but look at his actual strength, it’s actually very weak... Such a person, who keeps greedily devouring power and realms for the thrill of it, neglecting the most fundamental training, his Category 5 Lifeform should know about this issue, yet it seems they never reminded him. Instead, they keep encouraging him to devour even more energy. Teacher, don’t you think there’s a problem here?"

Tezcatlipoca pondered and said, "Su Yu, what exactly have you thought of?"

"Teacher, it was actually your metaphor of comparing Zhang Jiarong to a pig just now that made me suddenly think of it. These Children of Destiny, they really resemble a group of pigs being fattened... They can directly devour energy and grow quickly, but their true strength is very poor... Isn’t this just like a group of pigs that keep eating and sleeping, fattening up quickly? If one were to raise a group of wolves or lions for battle, would they use this method? This makes me question the purpose of these Children of Destiny born from this world’s apocalypse... Are they really Children of Destiny that can change the world, recreate order and rules, the chosen ones?"

Tezcatlipoca’s voice dropped lower as he slowly said, "Your idea is very peculiar. If what you say is true, then that is indeed terrifying... Children of Destiny devouring the flesh and power of this world’s indigenous people to grow... but they are just a group of fattened pigs, and pigs are meant to be sent to the slaughterhouse, to provide ’those people’ with their delicious ’meat’ to eat... However, this contradicts some of the legends. The narratives about changing order and redefining rules, they are also real... There seems to be some contradictions here, or perhaps, aspects we are also unable to comprehend. Your Black Warriors, they are ones who have lived from ten thousand years ago, and among them, there may be those who have experienced the end of the Fourth Era. If they were indeed just a group of domesticated pigs, then how did they survive into this century? There’s still too much unknown here, however, those Black Iron Warriors themselves don’t understand either. They did not participate in the core battles, so these questions are likely beyond their understanding as well."

Tezcatlipoca felt a silent regret. Su Yu pondered for a while, then shook his head. There were indeed many questions he could not figure out, such as who those Golden People and the figure in blue were, as well as the myriad mature Category 5 Lifeforms within that vortex of Darkness. All of these involved too many things, as if trying to view flowers through mist, the more one looked, the blurrier it became, the more one thought, the more perplexed one became.

"Forget it, take one step at a time. Without reaching that realm, overthinking is futile. What’s important now is to strive to survive, including for our friends and families. Let’s hope everyone keeps striving to live on, that’s enough."

As Su Yu mused along the way, he decided to temporarily set aside matters like the Children of Destiny. Thinking too much only caused headaches and served no other purpose. Abandoning these thoughts, he focused single-mindedly on speeding towards the second of the "Ten Great Giant Cities."

With his hands folded behind his back, speeding up steadily amidst the whooshing of the wind, soon, the world’s second Giant City appeared before his eyes.
