Tens of thousands of monsters pressed down from the sky, darkening it, and collapsed like a giant wall before them.
“Hmph!”
Lu Yu saw a flash of cunning smile in Zhang Qing’s eyes, and his face darkened.
Now that we’re already in, there’s no use blaming Zhang Qing anymore.
If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have come at this time.
Five people facing a million monsters have little chance of winning.
The ground within a radius of over two hundred meters beneath Lu Yu’s feet quickly turned pitch black, as tens of thousands of blades from the Yellow Spring surged forth from underground.
Hiss!
The blade of Huangquan shot into the sky, slicing through the air and leaving a cold, howling wind in its wake. When it reached its highest point, it suddenly changed direction and plunged swiftly down from the sky.
Boom!
Each Huangquan Blade stirred up a force that made the sky roar; hundreds of thousands of power fluctuations surged forward like missiles.
As the long spear struck the ground, piercing through the body of the first monster, the creature let out a pained wail. Immediately after, more monsters were impaled by the blade of Huangquan, pinned to the ground, and shrieking in agony.
The corrosive poison has been activated.
Every monster was crying out in agony, their bodies bleeding profusely without stopping.
After the first monster died, Lu Yu had already activated the Soul Devouring effect.
A soul was drawn into his body, causing his fundamental attributes to rapidly increase.
“It’s a pity; without reaching the peak of a fourth-level star soul, I can’t break through!” Lu Yu gritted his teeth, sighed, and looked toward the monster ahead.
This time, even he felt suffocated!
The ones charging at the front are the weakest monsters among the fourth level.
But even if it’s weaker, it still has an attack power and physical strength of two or three million.
If these monsters appeared in a city, they could flatten any city in less than a day!
And when millions of monsters surged toward the five people, you can imagine how insignificant the five must have appeared in the eyes of those monsters!
What alarmed Lu Yu, Wang Jilong, and others was not the situation right in front of them.
However, compared to the millions of monsters surging from behind, the dead monsters were negligible!
Among them, even the aura of fifth-level lives was in an uproar.
Even a difference of just one level can result in an instant defeat.
Moreover, it’s a Level 5 monster! Without a Level 6 Star Soul, how could one possibly stand against it!
The herd galloped forward, their hooves pounding the earth like the iron feet of a thousand soldiers and horses.
On the ground, large areas of gravel were shaken up to half a meter high.
Even the ground in some areas began to crack, and the already rugged terrain split into deep pits!
Dark, towering monsters crowded together, piling upon each other to form moving mountains over ten meters high!
Innumerable beast roars echoed like thunderclaps shaking the heavens!
From afar, the sight had already made the five of them’ scalp tingle with fear!
Roar!
Among the strange creatures, a black magic wolf rushed out.
This black magic wolf moved as fast as lightning. With just one charge, it slammed into Xueyan’s body.
On the wolf’s body, a violent surge of energy erupted as the power of the fourth level peak locked onto the bloodshot eye.
“Good timing!” The aura around Blood Eye surged to its peak, surpassing the fourth-level Star Soul and emitting fluctuations of a fifth-level Star Soul. At the same time, Blood Eye lunged forward, throwing a punch toward the Black Demon Wolf.
Snap!
The white bone armor on the Blood Eye Fist had cracked open, with blood seeping out from the wounds.
The Black Demon Wolf shook its head and staggered backward, a crack at its forehead oozing with bloody blood. Then, this crack spread out from the forehead toward the surrounding areas of its skull like a spider web.
Bang!
The head of the Black Magic Wolf exploded.
Killing a level-five monster with a single punch—such news would be enough to cause a sensation if it spread through Nanjing City.
Because so far, no one in Nanjing has such strength.
Lu Yu, as the most unconventional expert in Nanjing, was actually the only one capable of achieving it.
Wang Jilong looked at the cracked armor on his hand, glared at Zhang Qing with clenched teeth, and roared in anger, “Zhang Qing, last time when we faced such an attack, how long did you manage to hold out! I don’t believe that with only three people, you could survive and escape!”
“Au!”
This is a wolf, a monster no different from a wild wolf.
However, even a wolf like this exudes the aura of a monster at the pinnacle of the fourth level.
Boom!
The wolf’s head struck Zhang Qing.
“Die!” Zhang Qing roared fiercely, a layer of light blue energy rippling around him.
Bang!
The wolf’s head shattered!
The wolf’s head is the toughest part.
However, under the blue light surrounding Zhang Qing, not only was the wolf’s head shattered, but the entire wolf’s body exploded.
“I don’t have any area attack skills. However, it’s not that easy to kill me either!” Zhang Qing said coldly, “At the very least, these level-four monsters aren’t qualified to take my life!”
“Roar!”
More monsters were approaching. The chorus of countless beasts’ roars shook the heavens and earth!
The monstrous swarm surged forward like a locust cloud, blotting out the sky and engulfing countless people in an instant!
The hearts of the five people sank.
At this moment, no one’s heart could possibly feel light!
Suddenly, amidst the monstrous horde, a colossal blade, like a giant cleaving through dark clouds, slashed forth from the earth.
Twenty thousand demon-slaying swords, quivering with a clattering sound, cleaved through the monstrous horde as blood rain fell from the sky.
The strange corpse fell onto the corrupted earth and was quickly dissolved by the underground waters of the Yellow Spring.
Lou Xiaoyu, hidden behind Lu Yu, was untouched by the grotesque corpse, not even a drop of blood landing on her.
“Roar!”
More monsters stepped onto the Yellow Spring land, and over ten thousand Yellow Spring blades launched their attack.
Rows of monsters were pierced through their bodies, and the moment they fell onto the corrupted earth, they dissolved into waters of the underworld.
Meanwhile, Old Five Lou’s fingertips once again shot out a barrage of cold, sharp rays, felling a fan-shaped swath of monsters ahead.
However, after a cold gleam of a blade, there will only be more monsters surging forward!
Lao Wu raised his fist and swung it, creating a shadow of punches that covered the front. Any monster that collided with the punch shadows was shattered.
Luo Xiaoyu was behind the four of them, especially protected by Lu Yu, and had not sustained any injuries at all.
She could clearly see the attacks of the four people ahead.
In Nanjing City, the Level 4 monsters that once instilled fear and headaches among people became easily defeated under the attacks of the four individuals.
On a bridge, level-four monsters that could block the attacks of thousands of warriors with just a dozen of them could be casually defeated by a single person here!
Even level-five monsters have become corpses here.
Perhaps these four people are not the strongest in all of China. But in Nanjing, they are the strongest individuals she has ever seen.
She didn’t know if anyone had ever witnessed such a magnificent battlefield.
However, Lou Xiaoyu believed that, at the very least, she was the only person in Nanjing who had the extraordinary luck to witness such a magnificent battlefield.
If a video recording were to be released, it would surely create a sensation throughout the entire city of Nanjing.
However, such a magnificent sight can only be seen by her now.
…
With his enormous body and a significant surge in power, his bloodshot eyes were even more striking. Although he lacked area-of-effect skills, a single palm strike from him could rival a level-five monster.
The blade of Zhang Qing’s war sword slashed through the air, its glow tearing through one flesh-and-blood body after another.
Lou Wu’s cold gleam and fist shadows were like an iron wall, blocking the monster’s advancing steps.
Lu Yu’s Huangquan Blade and Zhanmo Sword formed a sword array-like barrier, turning the area within dozens of meters in front of him into a forbidden zone.
Anyone who managed to step into this range was already dead.
If such a quartet were to join forces, Lao Xiaoyu guessed they could destroy Nanjing.
Perhaps these four people could fight their way to the south bank of the bridge.
However, all four of them are now facing unprecedented pressure.
Because their speed of killing monsters was slower than the rate at which the monsters gathered.
More monsters gathered in swarms, pushing forward.
The four of them felt immense pressure and began to retreat.
Zhang Qing smiled, though there was no smile on his face, and he became serious.
With bloodshot eyes, he roared furiously, launching wild and frenzied attacks.
Lou Lao Wu was emanating a faint red aura, and his eyes turned cold and ruthless!
The forbidden zone around Lu Yu was continuously shrinking, reducing from nearly forty meters to thirty meters, and still continued to shrink further.
“Block it, we must block it!” Zhang Qing shouted loudly. “If we can’t hold them off, we won’t have any chance to move forward.”
“Damn it!” Wang Jilong shouted in frustration. “Zhang Qing, you’re sending me to my death. Come on, tell me how to get out of here! Are you planning to run away by yourself when you can’t hold out anymore?”
“I have no intention of doing that!” Zhang Qing’s eyes flashed coldly as he snarled, “I won’t reveal the method until someone dies. So, if you want to leave, stay alive and watch others die.”
Lao Wu was gritting his teeth, almost roaring, as he said, “Zhang Qing, you’ve even schemed against the old man himself. Just wait until you leave this place.”
Cursing is one thing, but…!
However, not a single person dared to stop.
Zhang Qing is forcing everyone to fight.
What exactly lies beyond this Star Burial Ground that makes Zhang Qing fight so hard for it!
Apart from Zhang Qing, Lao Wu was the only one who knew a little about it.
This was also some information he had obtained by chance.
Only Zhang Qing knows what treasures are hidden there.
Suddenly, a level-five monster broke through the defense set up by Lu Yu and rushed in front of Lao Xiaoyu.
This is a Blood Demon Bear, its claws already raised, slashing down toward Lou Xiaoyu’s back.
With the speed of a level-five monster, before Lou Xiaoyu could react, the bear’s claw was already above her head.
“Die for me!”
Lu Yu suddenly turned around, and thousands of demon-slaying swords stabbed towards a single point from all directions.
The Blood Demon Bear’s hide was naturally thick, and when the Demon-Slaying Sword stabbed into it, large sections of the blade shattered.
“Damn it, die for me even if you won’t die!” Lu Yu grabbed Lou Xiaoyu and swiftly pulled her backward, simultaneously slashing downward with a sword blade where flames and green energy intertwined.
The effects of Blazing Soul Burst and Ten Thousand Poisons were activated together.
Amidst flames and toxic gas, the Blood Demon Bear howled in agony but, in its ferocity, did not die immediately.
It charged out of the flames and rushed toward Lu Yu and Lou Xiaoyu.
Lu Yu forcefully shoved Lao Xiaoyu aside. His left hand suddenly emitted a cold, blade-like gleam, which slashed downward toward the Blood Demon Bear’s head.
Vroom!
A cold, gleaming blade splits the void and strikes down upon the skull of the Blood Demon Bear.
Lu Yu’s right hand cleaved through the Blood Demon Bear’s skull and continued downward toward the bear’s neck.
However, before dying, the Blood Demon Bear’s severed head still released a shocking cold light and, with its last ounce of willpower, struck out with a final claw.
Bang!
Lu Yu’s chest was shattered by the impact.
His body flew out of the defense he had set up and crashed into the herd of beasts.
“Ahhroar!”
Ten thousand monstrous heads submerged Lu Yu, each one bearing a gaping, blood-drenched maw that snapped shut.
