Chapter 340: Accidentally Broke the Record

When it came to breaking records, even Yang couldn’t help but furrow her brow.

He didn’t know how many monsters there were on the Demon Hunting Plains after they had been unleashed.

As for how the record would be broken, he didn’t know either.

If someone can break or set a new record, that really depends on luck.

Just like the person who just came in, the first one to enter started a record.

Lu Yu looked at Bai Yang and said, “Mr. Bai Yang, this light portal was activated by your group. Don’t you have any related information? If the Celestial Organization is willing to sell it, I’d be more than happy to purchase it!”

“If we did, we’d be more than happy to exchange the Star Essence and Ninth Level Star Soldiers with you. However—” Yang sighed, shrugging his shoulders, “Being capable of opening it doesn’t mean we know everything.”

“It seems that if I want to break the record, it all depends on myself,” Lu Yu said with a smile.

“Even without breaking any records, the Demon Hunting Plains are still quite remarkable,” Bai Yang said. “Its size is beyond our estimation. Around this ruined area alone, there are at least three thousand demon lord-level monsters, and even one supreme-level expert.”

“Is that so?” Lu Yu’s eyes lit up as he said, “Then it seems even if I can’t break the record, the rewards here won’t be too small. I won’t disturb Mr. Bai Yang any further; I’ll go out first and check the situation.”

Lu Yu took a step forward, speaking as he stepped out of the ruins.

Lu Yu witnessed here that over a hundred people were attacking two wolf monarchs and a wolf pack consisting of more than thirty wolves!

Although there were more than a hundred people and not a single Star Lord among them, they possessed two Grade-9 Star Weapons.

More than a hundred people looked excited, their eyes gleaming with uncontrollable greed as they stared at the wolf, a Monarch-level beast.

Because lives of the Demon Lord’s caliber are considered invaluable assets to both humanity and the demon race.

The body of a Demon Lord-level lifeform can be exchanged for valuable treasures within the Celestial Deity System.

So far, the most valuable skill that has appeared in the Celestial System is Lu Yu’s “Myriad Toxins.” There have also emerged several other skills that are not inferior to “Myriad Toxins.”

Even someone had exchanged a unique item from the Level 9 Celestial God System.

Just for the skills and the rare items that might be obtained, no one would let a Demon Lord-class enemy escape.

However, on Earth, there are very few魔主-level lives between the wilderness and dense forests beyond the cities.

It’s already quite good to have a few of them outside a city, but they are very scattered and not easy to find.

Sometimes, even if you have the ability to find it, you might still get trapped deep in the wilderness and among wild beasts!

A team of more than a hundred people on Earth would hardly be able to hunt down a Devil King-level target unless you become significantly stronger.

In Huaxia, there are frequently groups of over a hundred people encountering beast monarch-level creatures in the wilderness, and there are far too many examples of no survivors.

Entering the Demon Hunting Plains, it was as if he had barely stepped out of the ruins when he already encountered a lifeform at the level of a Demon Lord.

There’s no need to search, nor are there too many beasts to attack.

Who would be willing to let go at a time like this? Who wouldn’t be excited?

Someone shouted while fighting: “Brothers, push harder! Once we take down these two wolf kings, the rest of the wolf pack will be nothing!”

Someone exclaimed excitedly, “Old Liu said there’s another wolf den not far from here. Don’t hold back, everyone! After finishing off these, we still have two more wolf kings to deal with.”

The crowd around shouted in unison: “Bravo!”

Skills spread across the sky in an instant, causing the wolf pack to howl in ceaseless anguish.

Many people watched with envious eyes, and even the Demon Lord, upon seeing it, couldn’t help but feel secretly delighted.

Because the Demon Hunting Plains had also been opened in their era.

Those with the right karma have even received items left behind by the “King” from here.

“Roar!”

Beneath the earth, a strange, crocodile-like shadow, about twenty feet long, dove underground and leaped up to bite a person’s head off, then quickly sprang back into the soil.

The crocodile monster was covered in rows of bony spikes, with scales as hard as steel covering its entire body.

Suddenly appearing and vanishing in an instant, killing people before they could comprehend what was happening.

A devil king still had the image of the monster lingering before his eyes. Suddenly realizing, he shouted loudly, “That was an earth dragon, an immature earth dragon.”

“What?”

Several demon lords around looked together toward the large hole in the ground from which the monster had emerged, their eyes wide with shock.

In the moment they hesitated, a Demon Lord had already leaped high and slashed a palm strike toward the large pit.

The Demon Hunting Plains, where power is no longer restricted.

The Demon Lord’s power was unleashed in its entirety, surging with an overwhelming force capable of overturning rivers and seas.

The ground was flipped up by a single palm strike from the Demon Lord. Amidst the flying sand, rocks, and dirt, the crocodile monster’s figure was revealed, along with the corpse it had been eating, now barely half remaining.

The earth dragon, disturbed during its meal, let out a furious roar toward the sky, leaped high into the air, and swung its crocodile-like tail powerfully.

The Demon Lord was sent flying backward by a single sweep, half of his body cracking open. However, the demon’s body was tough and resilient, enduring the blow without shattering.

The earth dragon fell to the ground, slithering like a snake across the land, and lunged toward the demon lord.

The Demon Lord recoiled in horror and shouted, “What are you waiting for? Each of you just needs a small piece of the earth dragon’s meat—eating too much won’t have any additional effect anyway. This earth dragon alone is enough for at least a hundred people. Work together to kill it, then we’ll divide up its blood and flesh to sell.”

The remaining several Demon Lords no longer hesitated and immediately joined forces to attack together.

The Earth Dragon is still in its infancy, possessing merely hundreds of trillions of attributes; a single魔王 is not even worth mentioning.

The earth dragon was surrounded and attacked. In a rage, it let out a furious roar. The shockwave of its roar ruptured the king’s eardrums and caused blood to pour from his five senses!

“Aroar!”

Not far from the ruins, deep within a dense forest, a giant ape, ten zhang tall, suddenly burst forth from the mountains.

Wherever it passed, it smashed through massive trees, and even crushed several humans at the edge of the forest into bloodied pulp.

It carried a ten-meter-long stone club on its shoulder, and with its other hand, it continuously pounded its chest while letting out strange cries.

“Half-Zhizun? This is actually a Half-Zhizun!” Dozens of people in the distance exclaimed in terror, quickly retreating.

The Giant Ape was too powerful; even a Half-Sovereign’s aura could make a Demon Lord tremble with weakness in both knees!

“Die!” the giant ape shouted in human speech, swinging its stone club down toward the humans on the ground.

Baiyang, who had remained motionless amidst the ruins, suddenly flashed forward and stood before the stone staff, his voice heavy with determination as he declared, “I’ll do it!”

Bai Yang held a ninth-grade star weapon in his hand, sending out surging waves of light that rushed toward the giant ape.

Boom!

The collision between the two and a half Zun beings sent shockwaves that lifted stones and dirt, sweeping outwards like a sandstorm for more than ten kilometers in all directions.

Dust and sand surged wildly, even sweeping up the demon lords and beast-level demons engaged in battle all around.

People among the ruins stood in stunned silence, their voices trembling as they asked, “Is this the power of an unrestrained Half-Zhizun?”

“Oh my god, even a Half-Sage is already this powerful. If a True Sage were to take action, what kind of might would that unleash!”

People were horrified, witnessing such a shocking battle for the first time, almost leaving them breathless.

Many people turned their gaze toward Lu Yu, the only Supreme still remaining within the ruins.

Lu Yu stood with his hands behind his back, exuding an awe-inspiring aura that seemed to command the entire world.

Most Honored One, Most Honored One—

The强者 who stands above all beings!

Lu Yu paid no attention to such a battle at all.

The Demon Lord, a Half-Zhizun, even a Zhizun below the Four Zhizuns.

Lu Yu can completely defeat any opponent who doesn’t possess particularly special abilities, as long as he is willing to do so.

He detected waves of energy around him—thousands of auras at the level of Demon Lords.

These were treasures in Lu Yu’s eyes.

Monsters occasionally emerged from the surrounding mountains, wilderness, and dense forests.

The area near the ruins became a battlefield.

At this moment, Qin Tian entered along with the three Zun. Following Qin Tian were hundreds of elite warriors handpicked by the Qin family.

“Haha, excellent!” Qin Tian exclaimed excitedly. “Once we kill all the beasts here, the Qin family will be able to take another big step forward.”

The three Zun had already taken action, rushing towards the surrounding areas.

This is the Demon Hunting Plains, also a land of treasures.

The ruins were already surrounded by the deafening shouts of battle; the battlefield was everywhere, and blood was flowing all around.

Everyone has already been stirred up, fighting like mad.

Lu Yu indeed stood amidst the ruins, gazing at the stone tablet still upright at the center.

Then his gaze turned to look around.

This ruin is quite small, at least half the size of Shanghai.

The shattered buildings have long lost their original appearance, and everything has been erased by the passage of time.

Lu Yu walked around the ruins, searching for any records or traces that might reveal what had once existed there.

Unfortunately, this part was crushed too thoroughly; there isn’t a single pattern, not even a word or symbol left!

“What a dead city!” Lu Yu sighed helplessly.

There isn’t a single clue here; everything has been wiped out too cleanly.

Lu Yu searched through the ruins thoroughly, but eventually left the ruins behind.

In front of him stretched a mountain range spanning hundreds of kilometers!

Lu Yun could sense that within the mountains, there were at least thousands of魔王 (mó wáng) auras.

Here, not only is one’s strength not suppressed, but even one’s senses and divine consciousness are expanded by countless times.

The breath of all living beings in the mountains was reflected into Lu Yu’s mind.

Each life is precisely positioned where it belongs.

Even——

“The supreme aura—there are five in total!” Lu Yu’s divine consciousness detected five powerful forces within the mountain range.

These five forces have been hidden all along.

Lu Yu is also a Zhi Zun, and his own strength has already reached the Five Zun level.

Speaking solely of his strength, it was already quite remarkable.

The strongest among the five supreme presences was a Sixth Sovereign, while the remaining were two Fourth Sovereigns and two Third Sovereigns.

“Very well.” Lu Yu detected five strands of Supreme Qi and said with delight, “Now this is something worthy of my effort.”

Lu Yu had already clenched his hands into fists, ready to attack, when he suddenly noticed five figures retreating in the opposite direction.

The speed of the five Zhi Zuns was incredibly fast. They split up and fled in three different directions like frightened little beasts, disappearing from Lu Yu’s divine consciousness in the blink of an eye.

“This—” Lu Yu was about to take action, but froze in place.

This was the first time he had seen the Supreme One flee.

Before Lu Yu could react, a voice rang in his ear: “Congratulations. You are the first human in the Demon Hunter Plains to scare away five Sovereigns using the power of five Zun. You are rewarded with five hundred million grade-one Star Spirit Stones and one thousand grade-nine Star Spirit Stones!”

“This… can this actually break the record?” Lu Yu stood in place, stunned.

At this moment, amidst the rumbling thunder over the Demon Hunting Plains, a cold voice echoed from the sky: “Congratulations to Supreme Lu Yu for successfully scaring away five Supremes. As a reward, he is granted five hundred million Grade-One Star Spirit Stones and one thousand Grade-Nine Star Spirit Stones.”
