Chapter 532: The Duel of the Kings

The sky was perfectly clear, without a trace of impurity, as transparent as a giant crystal.

But now, the inside of this crystal is filled with cracks.

Lu Yu’s battle with the Demon King began with such an intense first strike that it seemed to shatter vast expanses of the void itself.

The space around was collapsing, turning into a vortex like quicksand.

The two stood at the center of the swirling vortex, their feet treading upon the darkness exposed beneath the earth.

Boom!

Another strike!

Both attacks were directed at the void. Two cracks in the void collided like two great dragons crashing into each other.

Then the dragon’s body shattered. The massive crack splintered into countless tiny fractures, densely covering the space in front of the passageway!

The battle between Lu Yu and the Demon King seemed as if countless cracks had spread throughout the pure crystal.

Countless cracks collided in the air, instantly blocking the passageway.

Such a scene was too terrible, as if the end of the world had arrived, with even the heavens and earth collapsing.

“This, this can’t be true!” countless demons stood there in shock.

“The power of the two Kings is clashing in battle. It’s truly, truly an astonishing sight.”

“This is because the two of them have not yet restored Wang Zun’s peak power; they’ve only utilized less than one ten-thousandth of it.”

Surprise was etched across everyone’s faces; even the humanoid warriors were utterly astonished.

This is the Wang Zun showdown.

Having two kings in one era, this has never happened before.

You should know that Wang Zun’s power is unique to each generation, with only one person possessing it.

Either you kill the current King Zun, or the current King Zun must die, before you can qualify to inherit the power of King Zun recognized by heaven and earth.

Two kings appeared at the same time, colliding with equal force, causing the heavens to collapse and the earth to split apart!

The earth kept undulating ceaselessly; mountains struck by the fissures were reduced to rubble, and the land split apart, forming enormous chasms.

“This is the duel of the King’s Power. No wonder there can’t be two Kings in the same era. Their strength is too terrifying. When they fight, it’s even more horrifying than the end of the world.”

” Wang Zun of the same era became an enemy; no one but the king could get involved.”

However, the land here is shrouded in mysterious forces, quickly restoring itself after the moment of destruction.

Otherwise, it’s hard to imagine what the clash of their powers would turn this place into.

The cracks resembled mighty dragons surging in all directions, shattering the very fabric of the void.

Everyone was retreating.

Even if just grazed by a crack, a chunk of flesh would be sliced off the body. When armor is struck, it would also be cut open.

The void is like the sharpest blade.

In the moment Lu Yu clashed with the Demon King, they had already exchanged hundreds of blows.

The area in front of the passage was filled with numerous cracks in the void, interwoven into a vast net that blocked the way forward.

Qin Hai shouted from behind, “Don’t use the power of the King there! We won’t be able to pass through here if you do!”

“Do you think this kid standing here will make me let you pass?” The Demon King did not stop at all; instead, his punches became faster and faster.

This was the first time many people had seen a confrontation between Wang and Zun, and they found it absolutely terrifying.

The battle between the two was so intense that no one could intervene.

The giant net in front of the passage grew larger and larger, not only blocking the entrance but also extending upwards, downwards, and in all directions beyond.

The vast net transformed into a massive web hundreds of zhang in diameter. Innumerable cracks interwove and overlapped, eventually shattering when the density reached a certain point.

Boom!

Numerous tiny cracks transformed into countless arrows, shooting out in all directions.

“Hiss!”

These cracks moved through the void, and not a single person could escape; everyone was struck by the cracks.

One by one, they were pierced by cracks, their bodies riddled with countless bleeding holes.

The ground was pierced, with densely packed craters covering the surface like a pockmarked expanse.

Boom!

Qin Hai blocked the crack attack with a star artifact.

The king’s armor of the Snake People could also block it, but as for the others, they were all pierced through.

Only the elder who possessed the Earth Star Spirit stood still, radiating a faint glow from his body that enveloped the people around him.

When the crack hit that slightly yellowish glow, it was deflected upward.

Lu Yu and the Demon King were also struck by the rift.

Lu Yu’s entire body emitted a metallic clang, like steel. These cracks, when they struck him, were unable to pierce through.

A resonant clang also emanated from the Demon King’s body.

Both of them used the power of King Zun, yet they were completely immune to such power.

“So it’s actually like this!” Even the Demon King had never encountered such a situation before. With a shocked expression, he exclaimed, “Is it true that the power of a King cannot harm another King?”

“Apparently, the power between the two Kings couldn’t harm each other?” Lu Yu murmured to himself.

The demon king, Han Sheng, said coldly, “Without the power of the King of Kings, I can still kill you.”

Boom!

After the Demon King spoke, he stomped his foot on the ground and charged toward Lu Yu.

“Die!” Lu Yu slapped forward with one hand, sending a wave of toxic gas surging through the passage and crashing onto the Demon King’s body.

Vroom!

Cracks wildly flashed across the body of the Demon King, intertwining into a vast network that enveloped him.

The power of the toxic waves was too immense, sending the Demon King reeling backward in a flying retreat.

The Void Net on the Demon King’s body was being eroded away, but the process was extremely slow.

A tiny hole was eroded open, and in an instant, it was blocked by another layer of the void net.

“Poison has the weakest power against the void!” said Lu Yu.

“Only Wang Zun can counteract this poison?” Qin Hai also noticed it and frowned.

If news like this spreads, the major powers will probably go all out to collect every piece of information related to Wang Zun.

Everyone could see it clearly now.

Wang Zun’s power actually has such limitations.

Buzz!

More than ten demon warriors vanished into the air, using teleportation to forcefully break through the spatial barrier.

“Boom!”

Lu Yu slammed his palm into the void, and the passageway seemed to be filled with cracks.

Amidst the void, a heavy downpour of blood and chunks of flesh rained from the sky, drenching the ground. Dozens of people were torn to pieces within the cracks.

Their flesh and blood writhed on the ground, rapidly taking human form, then swiftly retreating backward.

“Still daring to use teleportation before Wang Zun’s power!” the Demon Clan’s Wang Zun coldly snarled, “There’s no shortcut to getting past us; you must kill Lu Yu first. Qin Hai, first eliminate that old man and his people; don’t let them get through. Lu Yu is alone; even if he holds his ground, it won’t matter.”

“Alright!”

On the other side, Qin Hai swung the starmade weapon in his hand, slashing toward the old man and the members of the Divine Organization.

“Boom!”

Lu Yu slapped his palm outward, and the wave of poison transformed into a venomous dragon that surged toward Qin Hai.

Qin Hai let go and quickly stepped back.

Before confirming the nature of the poison, Qin Hai didn’t want to touch it. He was not Wang Zun, but the King!

A venomous dragon transformed into a toxic wall, separating Qin Hai and the others from the old man and his group.

“Charge!”

The old man was the fastest, slipping past Lu Yu first.

Four dragon warriors followed closely behind, then came people from various organizations.

“Thinking of the past, do you really think it’s that easy!” The Demon King strode forward, passing through the sea of poison.

The dense network of cracks around him, these fine and intricate fissures wove together like armor, blocking the poison.

The Demon King, Lu Yu, pierced through the toxic wall. With a wave of his hand, cracks surged forth like mighty dragons weaving through the void.

Several people failed to dodge the fissure and were instantly cut in half at the waist.

However, no one who enters here is weak.

These people all have their own regenerative abilities.

Several people are reborn.

However, the Demon King had already arrived.

“No matter how powerful the force of rebirth is, it’s merely an ability. Before the King’s Presence, such ability is ineffective.”

The Demon King was extremely arrogant and suddenly clawed fiercely at the empty space.

Five cracks formed a cage-like trap, ensnaring several people inside.

His five fingers clenched, transforming the cage into a mass of darkness that engulfed the group entirely.

Then the darkness was mended by the void, and these individuals vanished simultaneously.

He may be unable to harm Lu Yu, but that doesn’t mean others can leave so calmly in front of him!

However, the elder and the others had already passed through the passage.

The old man shouted loudly, “Speed up! Remember, I haven’t told you to move, and you are not allowed to touch a single thing.”

“Understood!”

Everyone responded together, their expressions becoming exceptionally excited.

If Lu Yu could hold the pass, then they would have made it.

Qin Hai and the others had icy expressions; the look in their eyes as they stared at Lu Yu seemed capable of tearing him apart limb from limb, as if they could flay his skin and extract his bones.

The old man and others moved at an extremely fast speed and had already reached the other side of the passage.

The four dragon warriors stood guard in the center of the passage.

Everyone knew that this was the second trial.

After passing Lu Yu’s test, they still had to face the challenge of the four dragon warriors.

Qin Hai gripped the star artifact, stared at Lu Yu, and barked fiercely, “Lu Yu, are you determined to start an all-out war with me?”

Lu Yu, unafraid of Qin Hai, said coldly, “Qin Hai, if you dare to start a war, I won’t fear you either. If your hundred thousand Zunzang dare to come to Fanggang, I’ll see how many of them can return alive.”

“Lu Yu, don’t think I’ll be afraid of you just because you have a domain. Do you really think it’s difficult for me to break through your domain?”

“Alright, I’ll be waiting for you. If you can’t break through my domain, I’ll turn your island into ruins. Qin Hai, the reason I didn’t kill you back then wasn’t because I feared you,” Lu Yu’s voice became increasingly sharp as he continued, “I could have killed you anytime I wanted.”

“Okay, very good. Provoking me—today is the day you die.”

The demon king, exuding a murderous aura like a royal sovereign, coldly snarled, “Lu Yu, get out of here. Otherwise, this place will be where you meet your end today!”

“Save your breath. Wait until you’re worthy of cutting off my head before you spout such arrogance.”

“You’ve lived long enough,” said the Reincarnated Demon Puppet, stepping forward. “If you don’t move aside today, once I return to Earth, my Reincarnated Demon Clan will level your city.”

“Right, right!” Lu Yu nodded, laughing loudly, “Threatening me, do you really think this method works on me?”

“It seems those humans are looking for something. We still have time,” said one of the apes at the back, raising his voice. “Don’t waste time talking to him. Attack him!”

“That’s right, what are we waiting for! Attack!” A serpent warrior clad in King Zun’s armor stepped forward.

Qin Hai was truly enraged. He transformed into a demon over ten zhang tall, scanning the surroundings with his eyes and roaring, “What are you all waiting for? Do you still think this is the time to hold back and compete for treasures? If you can’t pass this trial, none of you have the qualification to seize anything.”

Wave after wave of murderous intent surged into the sky, while terrifying beams of light flickered across the bodies of every demon and humanoid race member.

No one held back anymore.
