Shelter!
Even during their era, no one among the Supreme Beings, not even those with the strength of a hundred heavens, dared to utter these two characters lightly.
These two individuals not only carry the pride of a master, but also possess immense strength.
The world is different now.
The Devil Ancestor saw the military representative move behind Lu Yu and asked in a deep voice, “Lu Yu, are you going to protect them?”
The Demon Ancestor withdrew his hand and had no choice but to take several steps backward.
He may not be afraid of others.
But Lu Yu, this person is too mysterious.
The Devil Ancestor even suspected that it was him who had long ago ignited the hellfire to complete the Hundred Refinements Devil Body.
The military representative felt a secret sense of relief, as if having narrowly escaped death, and considered himself extremely fortunate!
“Protection?” Lu Yu snorted coldly, his gaze sweeping over the Demon Ancestor like two blades piercing into him.
The military representative, who had just begun to relax slightly, felt his heart tighten suddenly, thinking to himself: Could it be that Lu Yu still remembers the past conflicts with the military?
“Lu Yu, don’t push too far,” the Devil Ancestor said in a deep voice. “Do you understand what protection truly means? Be careful, or your pride will turn to ashes!”
“You’re trying to provoke me?” Lu Yu sneered. “Do you really think I’ve come this far only to lose my head over a few words from you? Oh Great Ancestor of the Demonic, do you really believe I’d protect you just because you say so? The truth is, I’ve disliked you for a very long time. Today presents a perfect opportunity. With no one else around to interrupt us, let’s settle this once and for all—just you and me, one-on-one, to determine who prevails!”
“Fight me!” the Demon Ancestor said in a cold voice: “I have two and a half star artifacts; together, they can crush you into nothingness.”
“Alright then, I’d like to see who ends up as the debris today!” Lu Yu said. “In the past, my strength was no match for yours, but do you really think I’m still the same person I was back then?”
“Fine.” The Devil Ancestor’s voice was low and cold. “Today is the day we settle this. Once I obtain your body, everything will come to an end!”
After speaking, the Devil Ancestor suddenly inhaled deeply.
Boom!
The armor on the Devil Ancestor seemed to amplify his demonic energy, transforming the devilish aura around him into towering flames of dark fire, dozens of feet high, that danced in the air.
“Wait,” Lu Yu spoke up at this moment. “If you want to fight, you’ll have to wait a little longer.”
The Demon Ancestor sneered, “What, you regret it now?”
“Haha, come on, when have you ever seen me regret anything?” Lu Yu laughed loudly. “I’m just being cautious. I don’t want someone taking advantage of my momentary distraction to kill everyone, letting others profit from this battle.”
Lu Yu spoke while tilting his head to glance at Qin Hai, then turned his gaze toward the others from the Celestial Deity Organization who had entered with him. He coldly said, “Everyone, I’m not a philanthropist. Don’t think that by simply getting close to me, you can escape death.”
As Lu Yu paused, he spoke in a deep voice: “I won’t waste words. If you want to survive, each of you must hand over one item you obtained from the ruins. I guarantee your safety. If anyone dares to harm you, I will kill him without hesitation.”
“What?” gasped an American representative, “Lu Yu, you’re robbing us! Besides, why should we believe you can keep you people alive?”
Lu Yu said coldly, “You can choose not to give it. Whether you live or die has nothing to do with me.”
The Demon Ancestor was taken aback, not expecting Lu Yu to seize such an advantage.
He was killing people and looting treasures, while Lu Yu simply opened his mouth and demanded them directly.
Qin Hai also couldn’t help but speak solemnly, “Lu Yu, you’re too arrogant. Do you really think you alone can stop both of us? Even if you manage to defeat the Devil Ancestor, you would only achieve a pyrrhic victory! Do you really believe that I would let you live in your half-dead condition? Just a human like you dares to stand before me and claim you can protect someone else’s life!”
“Don’t think I’m afraid of you just because you’re the inheritor of the Hell King,” Lu Yu suddenly spun around, ignoring the Bloodthirsty Ancestor’s oppressive aura, and glared fiercely at Qin Hai. “If you’re not satisfied, then both of you come at me together. Do you really think I’m afraid of both of you joining forces? Wanting mutual destruction, huh? Let’s see if you’ve got what it takes to kill me!”
As Lu Yu finished speaking, Phantos, who had been motionless beside him, suddenly stepped forward forcefully, gripping the stone sword tightly.
The Demon of Illusion’s aura suddenly changed, and his terrifying murderous intent transformed into a massive, invisible tidal wave that surged toward Qin Hai. He declared, “If you want to kill my master, you must kill me first!”
Buzz…
Rumbling…
Gray light coursed around the stone sword in the demon’s hand, coiling and shifting like a tiny dragon’s shadow darting about restlessly.
Qin Hai’s expression turned tense as he fixed his gaze on the illusion demon!
They, as kings, certainly know the characteristics of the Phantom Demons very well.
A phantom demon, as long as you can control it, would become a treasure that even kings would value and fight over.
Qin Hai didn’t know how Lu Yu managed to make a Phantom Beast so obedient.
However, facing a phantom demon just as stubborn as Lu Yu, he didn’t feel particularly confident either!
Everyone around was stunned, glancing at Qin Hai and then at the Demon Ancestor, unable to hide their bewilderment.
Someone swallowed hard, thinking to themselves: My God! Lu Yu is absolutely insane! Is he really going to challenge two top experts at the same time, all by himself?
They knew the truth about Qin Hai. As the heir to the king, his current strength had already become unfathomable.
The mysterious figure known as the Devil Ancestor possessed power no weaker than that of Lu Yu and Qin Hai.
Especially since this person was still holding the battle axe that the Supreme Warrior had used in countless battles, and the armor on his body was definitely no ordinary gear.
Lu Yu doesn’t seem to have any advantage at first glance.
Lu Yu dares to challenge two opponents at once. Is he really driven by madness to achieve mastery?
A moment of silence fell around.
Fifty people away from the other side, their leader coldly said, “I think your fight has nothing to do with us. If you don’t believe me, you can try to kill one of us. My mission is to bring these fifty people to this ruins in order to possibly open the passageway into the palace. If you kill any one of us, the chance to open the palace will have to rely solely on brute force.”
“So?” Qin Hai and the Devil Ancestor narrowed their eyes, their gazes piercing with a chilling light as they fell silent.
Some places indeed require specific conditions to be accessed, so Qin Hai and the Devil Ancestor temporarily placed their trust in these individuals.
Some things need to be prioritized.
Now, facing Lu Yu is more important!
A foreign representative said in a low voice, “Lu Yu, I can give you one piece of the item, can you guarantee my survival?”
Lu Yu said, “If these two insist on killing you all, I don’t have the ability to guarantee everyone’s safety. However, unless they believe they can withstand my relentless pursuit without dying, they can try to make a move!”
“Alright!” the man nodded and said, “My organization has done business with you before. That’s why I believe you’re a man of your word. If I die, you must avenge me!”
“I guarantee your safety before you leave the Demon Hunter Plains. Once you leave the Demon Hunter Plains, your life and death are no longer my concern!”
“Not only that, I need you to ensure the safety of the people I brought with me and help them leave the ruins,” the representative said seriously. “We are a team. Whatever we have obtained, we achieved it together; it is not solely my achievement. Therefore, if you want to protect me, you must ensure the safety of all my people.”
A cold gleam flashed in Lu Yu’s eyes as he narrowed them at the other person, saying sternly, “Fine. But under one condition: they must follow my commands!”
“I can guarantee that.” The representative nodded.
“Bring it here.” Lu Yu said, extending his hand.
The representative was also very straightforward. He directly took out a section of a human arm bone from a storage bead and said, “This is what we obtained.”
Although this person showed no hesitation in taking it out, his eyes revealed an immense reluctance.
This section of a human forearm bone was just a single piece. The bone shimmered with golden light and exuded waves of killing intent, as if it were a weapon capable of slaying millions that was about to awaken.
Both Qin Hai and the Demon Ancestor stepped forward at the same time, extending their hands and saying, “Give me the item, and I’ll let you go!”
The representative, without changing his expression, said, “I’m sorry, but I’ve already reached an agreement with Mr. Lu, and I won’t go back on my word!”
Both Qin Hai and the Demon Ancestor moved at the same time, eager to seize it!
Boom!
The Demon King moved suddenly, brandishing his stone sword and blocking the path of the two men!
This representative was even quicker to act, directly handing the bone over to Lu Yu!
…
The Bones of Wang Zun:
Grade: Unique.
Description: After Wang Zun’s death, his star soul did not dissipate. Instead, it eventually coalesced entirely into this single remaining bone fragment.
Attributes: Maximum Life increased by ten units, Attack Power increased by five units, Tendons and Bones increased by five units!
…
Lu Yu was first taken aback, then burst into laughter, saying, “Good, very good. With this piece of bone, my chances of victory are even stronger. Let’s see how you, the Demon Ancestor, can still fight against me!”
Lu Yu’s speed was no less impressive. He grabbed the bone fragment and immediately absorbed it into his body.
“Actually Star Treasure!”
Many people couldn’t help but suck in a breath sharply!
Since everyone learned about the existence of Xingbao, there have been constant rumors of people obtaining it in the Demon Hunting Plains.
However, even so, the number of known Star Treasures in the world does not exceed ten.
Xingbao’s attributes and functions are unique, making it even more valuable due to its rarity.
When the representative brought out the treasure star for Lu Yu, everyone had already started to envy him.
You’re so powerful! The advantage of this is that you always have bargaining chips whenever you negotiate!
The expressions and moods of the Devil Ancestor and Qin Hai became extremely heavy.
The representative, after sending off the item, couldn’t help but feel a sense of relief.
China has an old saying that goes like this — “A common man has no crime, but possessing jade makes him guilty!”
He carries such a precious treasure on him, and now that the Demon Ancestor and Qin Hai have set their sights on him, it’s truly hard to feel at ease!
A representative of the Celestial Deity Organization also handed an item to Lu Yu and said, “Mr. Lu, my request is the same as his.”
“No problem!”
Lu Yu nodded, tightened his grip on the artifact from the Celestial Order, and furrowed his brows.
This is a spherical object as big as a fist. Inside the sphere, it resembles a mass of clouds and mist, within which dozens of dragon shadows are flying and dancing.
He has never seen this item before and does not know its origin.
“This was snatched from among the bones of a giant beast after entering the ruins; the specific effects are unknown.”
Lu Yu’s thoughts turned, containing not only his own memories but also the knowledge imparted by Wang Zun’s heart. Among this knowledge, mention was made of this very item.
“I think I know what it is now!” Lu Yu laughed heartily. “Ancestor of Devils, I believe you’ve probably figured it out too.”
The Demon Ancestor’s voice was cold, filled with deep killing intent, as he said, “This ruined place truly has quite a few treasures. I may not know what this is, but I’m certain it’s no worse than a half-star artifact!”
Qin Hai couldn’t bear to watch any longer and coldly said, “Stop the transaction. I won’t lay a hand on you; you can leave safely!”
Qin Hai and the Devil Ancestor were still somewhat confused and hadn’t yet figured out exactly what Lu Yu had obtained.
Even a king cannot know everything!
The Devil Ancestor threatened, “If you dare to trade again, even if you return to your respective countries, I will still raze your camps to the ground!”
“You’re threatening me?” Lu Yu grabbed a fist-sized orb and stuffed it into his mouth in one swift motion.
The sphere was a bit large, bigger than an apple by a fist.
However, just as this mass of the Dragon King’s soul was about to fall into Lu Yu’s mouth, it suddenly exploded.
“Au, roar!”
Inside the shattered sphere, numerous small dragons, each several inches long, flew toward Lu Yu’s mouth. They transformed into streams of energy that surged into every limb and pore of his body.
“Hmm!” Lu Yu felt as if his tendons had been pulled out, his entire body’s muscles involuntarily twitching.
“Dragon King’s Soul!” Qin Hai and the Devil Ancestor seemed to awaken all of a sudden, as if they had just recalled something, and rushed toward Lu Yu.
In an instant, the two great experts went berserk, and even the Illusion Devil was sent flying before it could react.
“Too late!” Lu Yu roared toward the sky, his muscles twitching as thick, sinewy veins surged like writhing dragons beneath his skin.
Boom! Boom!
Lu Yu’s body was undergoing a profound transformation! His meridians resembled great dragons moving beneath his skin. The blue veins traveled from his fingertips up his arms, then spread from his arms to his entire body, eventually reaching his neck.
Finally, Lu Yu’s face was covered with prominent blue veins.
He looked like a monster bearing an overload of energy, with veins bulging all over his body, appearing grotesque and terrifying.
“Ahh!” The Demon Ancestor swung his battle axe and struck first.
“Boom!”
Lu Yu, unarmed, raised his hand and struck toward the axe blade.
People all around were under the illusion that they saw several dragon shadows coiling around Lu Yu’s fist.
The flesh and blood fist collided with the half-star artifact in a violent explosion.
The ground beneath Lu Yu’s feet instantly cracked open, with thick fissures rapidly spreading outward in all directions.
He kept retreating backward, each step leaving a footprint nearly a foot deep in the ground.
The war axe was knocked upward, and when the axe blade collided with the fist shadow, sparks actually flew.
Lu Yu’s fist broke open, muscles bleeding profusely, but it was only a superficial wound without any damage to the tendons or bones.
Someone saw the wound on Lu Yu’s fist, where the writhing flesh was not blue veins, but rather the bodies of dragons!
“My goodness, what exactly is the Dragon King’s soul?”
“Lu Yu is so terrifying, he blocked a mid-tier artifact with just his bare hands.”
Everyone’s eyes popped out, unable to believe what they were seeing!
“The Dragon King’s Soul… It’s actually the legendary Dragon King’s Soul!” Seeing Lu Yu block the Devil Ancestor’s punch, Qin Hai couldn’t help but tremble with excitement: “Why didn’t I think of it before? He actually obtained something like this.”
The Demon Ancestor’s first strike failed to take effect. Unwilling to accept this, he roared furiously, “All of you, step back! If anyone dares to make another transaction, none of you will leave here alive.”
He was really furious.
Who would have thought that Lu Yu was so lucky? One of the treasures was a star artifact formed from the bone of a King Zun, and the other was actually a Dragon King’s soul.
The Dragon King’s Soul has nothing to do with ordinary souls; it is instead the concentrated essence of the strongest power within his bloodline after his death.
This royal city was undoubtedly built by humans and is certainly a human kingdom.
Who would have thought that there was a Dragon King in this royal city!
The Dragon King is an existence equal to the King.
When the Dragon King’s soul is used on a dragon, even the most ordinary dragon can evolve into a powerful至尊 (Supreme Being).
Because the Dragon King’s soul will completely transform a dragon from its skin to its bones, giving it the potential to evolve into a Dragon King!
If the Dragon King’s soul were used on a human, that person would suffer the excruciating pain of having their tendons pulled out.
Dozens of dragon shadows within the Dragon King’s soul will completely replace the original meridians in the human body by devouring them!
Moreover, these dragon shadows not only replace human meridians but also further transform the human body. The individual’s flesh and blood will begin to continuously strengthen based on the dragon shadows, becoming even tougher and more resilient.
It is said that if a human or a demon can absorb the Dragon King’s soul, once they become a King Zun, their body will directly evolve into a Dragon King Body!
That’s a defensive power comparable to a king’s!
When the Demon Ancestor swung his axe, his heart was already trembling.
He entered the Dragon’s Nest with the desire to obtain the Dragon King’s soul.
Unfortunately, he failed.
Who could have imagined that he saw it here.
Lu Yu absorbed the Dragon King’s soul, enhancing the resilience and strength of his flesh and blood.
Lu Yu was in a great mood!
Due to Qin Hai and the Demon Ancestor’s reckless slaughter, he luckily obtained two treasures.
With a single axe strike from the Devil Ancestor, Lu Yu was sent flying, but then he sprang into action.
“Ancestor of Devils, originally I planned to confront you with a half-star artifact. But now it seems completely unnecessary.” Lu Yu swung his fists toward the Devil Ancestor and launched a powerful strike.
“What good is having the Dragon King’s soul! I’ll kill you and extract the Dragon King’s soul again.” The Demon Ancestor was equally terrifying; with a swing of his battle axe, countless axe shadows filled the sky, completely enveloping Lu Yu.
Lu Yu charged straight into the shadow of the axe.
Everyone was stepping back, feeling the terrifying power of this confrontation!
Boom, boom, boom…
A punch meets a crescent slash!
The area was filled with the shattered afterimages of axes, and a wound appeared on Lu Yu’s fist.
The axe’s shadow shattered, and Lu Yu’s wounds on his fists healed again and again. The astonishing speed of his recovery continued to shock everyone.
Because since the arrival of the apocalypse, no one has ever possessed a recovery speed like Lu Yu’s.
Even one tenth or one hundredth would do.
“Kill!”
The Demon Ancestor coldly uttered a single word from his mouth, like a raging tiger charging at Lu Yu.
His armor was exuding an overwhelming demonic aura, like a ferocious dragon hovering in the sky.
“Am I afraid of you?!” Lu Yu’s eyes flashed with a crimson light as he took a step forward and charged towards the Demon Ancestor.
Boom!
Two figures collided with each other.
Lu Yu flew backward, his body splitting open with countless small wounds.
The armor on the Devil Ancestor’s body actually had a pit nearly half an inch deep.
This pit was repaired in an instant, and it also fell into the eyes of the Demon Ancestor.
The Devil Ancestor inhaled deeply and said, “What? The body strengthened by the Dragon King’s soul is actually this resilient—it can even dent armor of a half-star artifact!”
“Again!” Lu Yu landed in the distance, his hands slamming onto the ground as he flipped upright, resembling a hawk swooping down toward the Demon Ancestor.
Lu Yu’s hands clasped together like a war hammer, crashing down toward the Devil Ancestor’s head.
“Die for me!” The Demon Ancestor stood in place, gripping his battle axe tightly as he swung it straight down toward Lu Yu’s chest!
The Demon Ancestor channeled all the power from both arms into the battle axe, causing it to erupt with a frigid, cold light!
Snap!
The axe’s glow pierced Lu Yu’s skin as the weapon was driven into his chest.
“Flesh and blood body, you dare to block my battle axe!” the Demon Ancestor sneered coldly, as Lu Yu’s hands slammed onto his helmet.
Boom!
This strike also concentrated all of Lu Yu’s strength, combined with the force of his descent, far exceeding his own capabilities by several times.
The Devil Ancestor’s head was smashed downward, one leg slightly bent, almost collapsing to its knees.
The Demon Ancestor felt this was a disgrace and shouted fiercely, “Damn it, I’m the King! How could I possibly be defeated by a mere human?”
Lu Yu said coldly, “Ancestor of Demons, today is the day heaven will claim you. The moment I obtain the Dragon King’s soul, it will be your end!”
