The target of the heavily armored man was Abushe.
He knew that Lu Yu would keep his promise, which is why he made that deal with him.
In this way, he didn’t lose out on gaining everything from Abu She.
However, seeing the angry look on Lu Yu’s face, he also felt some concern that Lu Yu might regret his decision.
He has already tried so hard until now, and has put in so much effort. If Lu Yu were to back out again, all his efforts could be in vain.
He also felt some anger, but it was not yet the time to completely break the agreement.
Why team up with Lu Yu? It’s simply because he wasn’t confident in defeating Abushe on his own.
Therefore, Lu Yu’s heart was now pounding with some anxiety.
Lu Yu’s expression was blank, yet he remained extremely angry, even slowing down his refining movements.
However, Lu Yu felt extremely excited inside.
Because he had finally seized the vulnerable spot of the armored man.
The armored figure always gave off the vibe of an emotionless robot. But now, he could no longer remain calm, nor was he devoid of feelings. Even the heavily armored person, who previously remained indifferent to mockery and disdain, now experienced emotional fluctuations.
As long as a heavily armored warrior remains human, experiencing worries and fears, he cannot be invincible.
Lu Yu would never break his promise or ruin his own reputation.
He wanted to take this opportunity to find the weakness of the heavily armored man. Although this weakness was very minor and could be easily eliminated, at least having one was a start.
The armored figure sensed his own emotional fluctuation and his eyes beneath the armor instantly turned extremely cold. He said, “Don’t forget, you’ve already obtained what you wanted. If you wish to break our agreement and destroy all the credibility you’ve accumulated, I have nothing more to say.”
Lu Yu narrowed his eyes, and a sudden smile appeared on his usually stern face. He laughed heartily and said, “Well done. We’ve made a deal, so what are you still afraid of? Are you afraid that I might break my word?”
“You—” Upon hearing that, the armored man immediately realized he had been deceived, his eyes turning even colder.
Hiss!
On the other side, the mountain began to stir.
The half-star artifact in his hand transformed into a river of stars, slashing towards Lu Yu.
“Focus on refining the puppets. I’ll hold him off,” the armored figure said, striding toward the starry river. With a single step, he advanced, and his twin fists unleashed two starry beams, each several zhang wide, shattering the celestial stream.
Shan He’s figure flickered as he coldly snarled, “Wearing heavy armor, do you think you can move fast enough?”
Shan He once again vanished beyond the speed of lightning, disappearing from everyone’s sight.
The next moment, he appeared before a puppet that had not yet taken shape, and with a sweeping slash of his sword, he cut it down.
Boom!
He delivered a heavy punch to Shan He’s head from the side.
Bang!
It was as if two stars had collided, the deafening shockwave piercing through the sky, and vast swaths of darkness, like a black hole, devouring the surrounding land.
The flames on the eight puppets surrounding Lu Yu were almost completely dispersed by the shockwave.
Those liquid materials were about to solidify into rock, but just before they fully hardened, Lu Yu increased the output of hellfire once again, stabilizing their state.
Shan He was struck flying, the flesh and blood from his head turned into a bloody pulp, yet his skull remained intact. The armored figure staggered backward, its eyes revealing a trace of horror.
How could a human skull be so hard?
His punch, imbued with the power of a star artifact, should have been capable of shattering a human skull, yet it failed to do so.
Shan He fell to the ground, coughing up blood, and stared in shock at the armored figure.
A warrior clad in heavy armor was actually no slower than him.
He thought that Lu Yu’s speed surpassing his own was already quite rare. Now, unexpectedly, another person has emerged whose speed is no slower than his.
Shan He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his expression turning fierce as he snarled, “I underestimated you. Next strike, let’s see how you block it.”
Lu Yu controlled the flames and shouted at the armored figure, “If you’re going to fight, keep your distance! If the materials get destroyed, we’ll have to wait another half day. Do you want to give Abushe a chance to catch up?”
The armored figure sneered, “Don’t worry, he won’t get another chance to come near you.”
Shan He burst into a loud laugh and said, “What did you say? You want to trap me?”
“Correct!” the armored man sneered. “I’m after Abushe’s life. So whoever stands in my way will lose their life. As for you, are you really that fast?”
As the armored figure spoke, the heavy armor on his body actually began to undergo a transformation.
A pair of steel eagle wings extend from the back portion of the black metal armor.
The eagle’s wings stretched out to a length of three zhang, each steel feather resembling a sharp sword, exuding a chilling cold gleam.
At the end of the heavy armor, a long, steel-like snake tail extended outward, exceeding fifty feet in length, trailing behind like a steel whip.
The helmet of the heavy armor transformed into an eagle’s head, with the eye areas covered by two green gemstones. The fingertips of the armor’s gauntlets became claw-like, and the feet were shaped into eagle talons.
Shan He’s smile froze, and he became extremely shocked.
The obvious change in this star-grade armor clearly indicates an increase in speed.
“It’s true that star-grade armor can undergo different mutations depending on its primary material,” Shan He murmured to himself. His shocked expression suddenly turned sharp as he said fiercely, “Faster? I refuse to believe you can surpass me.”
As soon as Shan He raised the star weapon in his hand, he saw the mutated heavily armored figure appear before him.
Fast, too fast.
Shan He had no time to react before being struck again in the head with a heavy punch.
Shan He’s body was struck and flew into the air, his expression even more shocked.
The person wearing heavy armor actually surpassed him in speed.
His body had barely flown several zhang away when it was grabbed and yanked back by the armored man’s steel-like serpent tail.
“You’re caught by me,” the armored man laughed, throwing a series of heavy punches toward Shan He’s head.
Shan He was indeed ruthless enough to directly sever his own body and detach from the snake’s tail.
His body instantly recovered, and he saw the armored figure standing before him once again.
“Not fast enough, not fast enough,” the armored giant laughed, and with another punch, he sent He Shan flying.
“What?” Shan He was provoked.
He was first suppressed by Lu Yu in terms of speed, and now he is being suppressed by another person.
He is none other than King Zun, how could he possibly suffer two consecutive defeats?
“Want speed? I’ll show you who’s the fastest!” Shan He bit his tongue, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
He was going berserk, his speed increasing to such an extent that the void through which he moved was torn apart.
He leaped over the armored figure, his sword coming within half a foot of the nearly formed puppet.
Boom.
Shan He was blasted away once again.
He was fast, but the armored figure was impossibly faster.
Everyone was stunned.
Lu Yu was incredibly fast, leaving people breathless. The armored figure actually possessed a speed not inferior to Lu Yu’s.
Buzz!
Another batch of puppets has been successfully created.
Thirty-two years old already.
There are still eight more bodies left.
Lu Yu took out the last batch of materials.
His fingertips flicked out streams of fire snakes, which exploded upon the materials, instantly erupting into towering pillars of flame reaching the sky.
The material melted.
As if sensing the approaching crisis, the attacks from the Beast Demons and Reborn Demons became increasingly fierce.
Millions of troops surged against a defensive line composed of over two hundred thousand soldiers, shaking the line precariously!
“Boom!”
In a single sky, blood rain falls.
The armored figure grabbed Shan He’s head and slammed it into the ground. With a swing of his long, steel serpent tail, he struck dozens of people like cannonballs, splitting them in half.
Then he turned his head and grabbed, five crescent-shaped cold lights several feet long shot out from his fingertips, sweeping into the battlefield.
All lives touched by the cold light were successively cut to pieces; even the most supreme star warriors could not escape being shattered.
This is the true Star Artifact, unmatched in power.
The mountain how was completed, the eyes on the head lost their luster, and were gradually fading away.
No one knows what method the armored figure used, but he killed this King without destroying Shan He’s head.
This was the only king among the battlefield who was consecutively killed.
The two times Shan He was killed sent countless people at the rear and in front of satellite monitors into rapturous cheers. Although the armored warrior wasn’t one of their own, the fact that he had slain someone as formidable as Shan He indicated that the current world’s powerhouses had already gained the strength to hunt down and defeat the peak experts of previous eras.
This is a piece of news that could shake the world.
This world no longer belongs to those mighty kings, nor to the King Lords who have yet to regain their peak strength.
In this era, they remain the masters of the land.
However, the impact of the massive Indian army was too fierce; even the addition of heavily armored troops could not change the situation much.
Lu Yu’s side has a king, the presence of a king’s honor, and Abu She has the same as well.
Even Abu She seemed to know that a great disaster was coming and had already gone all out.
Someone saw Abu She spit out a large mouthful of blood, his entire body withering away in an instant, and then before him, within a ball of white light, a figure exuding a terrifying aura began to gradually take shape.
That was the breath of a king, the breath of a king with the power of ten thousand thrones.
This king still wore broken armor, and in one hand he clutched a damaged star-forged weapon.
Abeshe was speaking with that king.
No one knew what the two men were talking about, nor was it clear what promise Abu Shek had made to the king.
The king moved.
He took one step out of the Phantom Barrier and into the battlefield.
The star weapon was slashed out, its brilliance so dazzling that it caused dizziness.
As the light surged into the battlefield, it was like a storm sweeping through, shattering everything it cut across into pieces.
Blood rain and shattered bones fall from the sky, while countless pieces of flesh squirm with difficulty, struggling to survive.
The heavily armored figure rushed forward personally to intercept and blocked that beam of light.
However, he himself was also blasted away by the light.
“This, this is the power of resurrection!” Many people witnessed the process of Abushe reviving the king, and astonishment was evident on their faces.
“Pay a certain price, and then resurrect a powerful warrior?”
One by one, the faces turned astonished.
If even a king can be resurrected so easily, and even brought back with his weapons, such power is truly terrifying.
Who said such abilities could rival a King? In later stages, as more Kings gathered around the Guardian, even those who had awakened and regained their peak strength could not stand against them.
After reviving his life, Abeshe’s withered flesh and blood began to recover rapidly, but his strength had clearly dropped to an extremely low level. He kept coughing up blood, as if he had just endured a severe illness.
The resurrected king is terrifying and extraordinarily powerful.
The battle of the star weapons raged from the ground up into the sky.
The battle situation remained unchanged, but instead, it began to tilt in Abushe’s favor.
Lu Yu and the armored warrior’s allied forces were contracting, closing in around Lu Yu to resist the opposing force.
“Lu Yu, how much longer?” Xu Ling Wang was fighting another king, both of them covered in wounds, and they were on the verge of using their king-level skills.
“Wait, don’t disturb me,” Lu Yu said, fully concentrating. All his attention was focused on the final eight puppets.
“Hurry up! Do you know how much we’re sacrificing to help you hold off these enemies?” The Wolf King had already transformed into a giant wolf-man, towering two zhang tall, with eerie green eyes glowing like ghostly flames in the night sky.
“Your people are dying. Do you think my people won’t die too?” Lu Yu said sternly. “Just hold the line. If you can’t hold it, everything we’ve done will be for nothing.”
The wolf king roared furiously and helplessly lunged at the enemy.
He was a king, yet he was being scolded like this. If it were someone else, he would have beaten them first without hesitation.
Your current position is important, so I’ll hold back.
