Lu Yu may not match Zha Yigu, but before the Demon Ape, his power is absolute.
The trembling of the Yellow Spring heralds nothing but slaughter!
Since you have chosen violence, why fear violence!
More than ten demon apes were slain within the ten-meter radius area of the Yellow Spring. Their blood, flesh, and bones fell onto the black stones, instantly transforming into clear, transparent droplets that seeped into the cracks of the rocks.
“Not enough, I need more!” Lu Yu replied coldly, staring at the blood on his fingertips.
“Wait!”
The demon soldiers left.
At the bottom of the demonic race are the slaves, whose status is not much higher than that of human slaves. The demonic soldiers wouldn’t care how many of them die. Lu Yu possesses the Bloodthirsty Blade, which restores his health whenever he slays an enemy!
Now, with his own recovery speed, he can quickly restore his maximum health.
On the first day in Qin City, as night fell, Lu Yu made his way between the slaughter and the fists of Zha Yigu.
When the woman came over with several dishes of food, her face was still looking gloomy. However, after changing into casual clothes and taking a shower, she had gained a touch of fresh and delicate beauty.
“Get out,” Lu Yu signaled the demon soldiers and Zha Yigu to leave.
He didn’t want to face these demonic beings while eating.
The aroma of the food is quite pleasant, and the color looks good too.
Lu Yu looked at the woman, who had only taken one set of bowls and chopsticks, and said, “Go, bring another set.”
The woman didn’t know what Lu Yu was going to do. She obediently went out and soon came back in with another set of bowls and chopsticks.
“Come here!” Lu Yu pointed to another chair, signaling the woman to sit down.
The woman also seemed to have gone a long time without eating. She stared at the food, swallowing hard, and watched Lu Yu hesitating.
“Sit down!” Lu Yu’s eyes flared open fiercely as he coldly said, “Do you think you can make me wait for you?”
His gaze was extremely sharp, carrying a hint of murderous intent.
The woman was startled and sat down, somewhat dazed.
Lu Yu began to eat without hesitation, picking up the bowl and chopsticks, and didn’t feel like explaining much.
The woman kept looking at Lu Yu, nervously staring at him for a short while. Finally unable to resist the aroma of the food any longer, she cautiously picked up a small bite with her chopsticks and put it into her mouth.
Although she was very hungry, the woman did not eat quickly.
Lu Yu was only glancing at the woman out of the corner of his eye when he noticed her subtle movements.
Every time the woman picked up food with her chopsticks, she subtly let half of it fall onto the fabric of her clothing that was tucked around her lap.
“How long do you think you can save them?” Lu Yu said coldly. “If you give someone a meal, they’ll be grateful. If you give them ten meals, they’ll start taking it for granted. And when one day you don’t give them food, they’ll believe you did it on purpose and begin cursing you and keeping their distance.”
The woman was taken aback, not expecting Lu Yu to see through her thoughts. She sat there, hesitating, her chopsticks hovering over the dish without daring to move.
“I can’t eat all of these; you can take them away. You can make more, and deal with the leftovers yourself,” Lu Yu said, as if he hadn’t noticed the woman’s hesitation. “However, you must guarantee that I will have food to eat for the next two months.”
The woman stared at Lu Yu, her eyes reddening unnaturally.
“I—” the woman’s voice was somewhat hoarse as she apologized, “My voice sounds really unpleasant.”
“It’s okay. I’m used to hearing screams. There aren’t many sounds in this world that could still scare me to death.”
Lu Yu still didn’t look up and continued eating his meal.
The woman looked at Lu Yu gratefully and said, “We live together, work together, and sometimes when I can’t get enough to eat, two of the girls will share some of their food with me. I want to bring them something too; we haven’t had meals like this in a long time.”
“Hmm!” Lu Yu didn’t want to get involved. After finishing two bowls of rice, he looked at the woman and said, “Once you’re full, clear the food away and then send Zha Yigu here. You can go back and deliver meals to them, and remember to bring me breakfast tomorrow morning.”
The woman nodded, then quickly finished the rice in her bowl, and wrapped all the remaining items into the coat she was wearing.
The woman left, and Zayig entered.
“Don’t you want to take a break?” Zayigul looked at Lu Yu, her expression somewhat unusual.
The demon race venerates strength.
However, he really didn’t know if someone like Lu Yu, who had been cultivating without rest, would be able to hold on.
“There’s still a lot to do in these two months,” Lu Yu said coldly. “Come on!”
“Good!”
Zha Yigu let out a deep shout, exhaled forcefully, and threw a punch.
Boom!
Still holding nothing back, a punch with a force of one hundred thousand struck Lu Yu’s chest, piercing through his body!
Night – it’s already deep!
Lu Yu’s eyes showed no sign of fatigue; the light in his eyes gleamed with a beast-like red glow in the darkness.
Inside the Bone Hall, Fan Tian chuckled faintly, “Very good! You truly resemble a Demon Clan member, but unfortunately, you are not one. No matter how much stronger you become, as long as you resist me, I can still kill you with just a single finger!”
That night, Lu Yu only rested for one hour.
The remaining time was spent on Zaigu’s fists and in the midst of slaughter.
He had no memory of exactly how many magic apes he had killed.
Someone has provided him with endless resources; how could he possibly waste such a rare opportunity of a lifetime!
The Yellow Spring ground remained extremely dry, yet Lu Yu could sense that beneath his feet, a layer of water about a foot thick was surging under the Yellow Spring earth.
The water of the Yellow Spring—finally, it can be unleashed.
As Lu Yu’s mind stirred, the water layer suddenly surged from the rock crevices, transforming into ten three-meter-long spears that pierced the bodies of several demonic apes.
“Roar.”
“Howl, howl!”
The demon apes howled in agony as their skin and flesh began to peel off, corroding into chunks of blood and bone that fell into the water on the ground, then quickly disintegrated without leaving the slightest trace of their existence.
“I see,” Lu Yu finally understood the strength and weakness of Huangquan’s trembling attack.
The attacking power of ten water guns is equivalent to his attack power, and once the enemy is injured, it will trigger a corrosive and highly toxic attack.
Yellow Springs, the fountain of the dead that devours all lives!
“Enough harshness, this is exactly what I want!” The cold gleam in Lu Yu’s eyes flashed like lightning.
“More magic apes!” Lu Yu exclaimed, somewhat frenzied.
The Tenth Day—
The black stone ground beneath Lu Yu’s feet expanded, covering an area with a radius of thirty meters.
“The Yellow Spring Quiver has been upgraded to level 2!” Words flashed before Lu Yu’s eyes, followed by the attribute changes of the Yellow Spring Quiver.
The water of the Yellow Spring flowed underground and became quiet once more.
The Yellow Spring water can only be activated when it completely covers the Yellow Spring land!
What surprised Lu Yu even more was that the Bone Hall seemed to be an infinite space.
Originally, the Yellow Spring ground with a radius of thirty meters could have already filled the Bone Hall and even spread further. But now, the Yellow Spring ground is still more than twenty meters away from touching the edge of the walls.
Lu Yu cast aside all the changes behind him; they were still far from the limit of the secondary radius.
Above the Bone Palace, Brahma’s voice suddenly echoed: “Your talent is mediocre; you failed to maximize the corruption radius of the Yellow Spring Quake right at the moment of your ascension. However, you can kill more lives, using their lives to expand the corruption radius.”
“Is the cultivation of Huang Quan’s trembling path really about walking forward on countless bones?”
Lu Yu said coldly, his eyes fixed on the demon ape that had just been driven in as he mercilessly launched an attack without hesitation.
…
Day Sixteen —
Congratulations! The energy storage of your Phantom Spirit Orb has reached full capacity, and it has been upgraded to level two.
Under Zha Yigu’s fists, after enduring continuous heavy blows for more than ten days, the Phantom Spirit Star Soul Ball finally broke through.
Congratulations! You have gained a foundational attribute — 30,000 points in physique!
Phantom Star Soul Orb—
Level: Two. (Upgrading to Level Three requires absorbing 500 million damage points)
Effect: Each time the owner is attacked, 40% of the attacker’s attack power is absorbed as damage, and this damage is stored into an energy sphere.
Activate the special skill: Phantom Bone — when struck by an instant one-hit kill damage, your tendons and bones will instantly increase by 50,000 points, nullifying the damage. The Phantom Bone effect lasts for five minutes, and each activation consumes 100,000 stored damage energy points!
…
Lu Yu could feel the Phantom Star Soul Sphere within his body releasing a large amount of heat, which was merging into his body.
“Take a break.” Lu Yu looked at the attribute enhancement provided by the Phantom Star Soul Orb, a slight smile curling his lips.
Even he himself found it incredible.
The second-level Illusory Spirit Star Soul added thirty thousand points to his physical strength at once, which was a somewhat terrifying amount.
Although it’s still far inferior to a Level 3 Demon Soldier, at least he was approaching the combat power of a Level 3 Demon Soldier!
Over these past ten days, the upper limit of life has been repeatedly activated through successive injuries, reaching as high as seventy thousand!
The upgrade process of the Killing Star Soul is still at 52% remaining.
The筋骨 (muscle and bone) surged to forty thousand under the stimulation of Zha Yigu’s attack, increasing by thirty thousand in an instant, reaching the same value as the maximum life limit.
The attack power is merely two hundred and thirty thousand points, making it the weakest stat.
Lu Yu had the urge to strike out at Zayig several times.
Battle—is the fastest way to increase attack power.
However, he held himself back.
Because once he takes action, he can fully activate the Killing Star Soul, and at that time, he can’t guarantee whether Fan Tian will spare him or not.
After resting for half a day, Lu Yu checked the time and realized that woman still hadn’t arrived.
“It was slower today,” Lu Yu said, sitting on the bed with his limbs feeling somewhat weak.
During these past ten days or so, he hasn’t rested much, and his mental energy has been pushed to the brink of exhaustion, sustained only by food.
He didn’t want to waste time.
The woman in charge of food arrived late, which meant that his physical strength had already started to run out.
Just when Lu Yu had been waiting for another half hour, the woman arrived.
“You’re an hour late. Do you know how much time you’ve wasted for me?” Lu Yu stared coldly at the woman, noticing the tear marks at the corners of her eyes, her swollen red eyelids, and the blood on the corner of her mouth.
“I’m sorry, I’m so sorry!” The woman put down the food and hurriedly bowed her head to Lu Yu.
“How did you get injured? And why is there blood at the corner of your mouth?” Lu Yu sat down and started eating without ceremony.
He needed to hurry up.
“It’s nothing,” the woman said hastily, shaking her head. She used her hand to wipe away the blood from the corner of her mouth and forced a smile.
Lu Yu stared at the woman coldly and said in a deep voice, “I really do have something important! Do you know that I’ve been barely keeping my body going by relying on the energy from food lately? You were an hour late, which means I’ve been nearly exhausted, sitting on the bed unable to do anything. So, you’d better tell me what’s so important, or I’ll find someone else.”
When the woman heard that Lu Yu was going to replace her, she immediately panicked and waved her hands, saying, “Sir, no, please don’t replace me.”
These past ten days have been the happiest since the end of the world, and she knew this period wouldn’t last long.
However, she did not want it to end so soon.
“The men in the same cell with me wanted better food; they wanted meat,” the woman said, bowing her head, tears glistening in the corners of her eyes. “Mr., you were absolutely right when you said, ‘If you give someone a meal, they will appreciate you. If you give them ten meals, they will start to take it for granted. And when you don’t give them food one day, they will think you did it on purpose.’ The first time, they were grateful when I brought back food. Gradually, whenever I returned, they would rush over and snatch the food I had brought. Now, they are no longer satisfied with leftovers; they want fresh food. When I can’t bring it, they beat me and my friend!”
“Good! You sent them food first, right?” Lu Yu asked with a cold smile.
The woman felt uneasy under Lu Yu’s gaze and gave a slight nod.
“It seems you understand now. Those who still only think of themselves in such circumstances—do you really believe you have the right to sympathize with them?”
As he spoke, Lu Yu took out the Flameblood Blade from his body and placed it on the table, saying, “Kill them!”
