A king can be cruel, can be cold-hearted.
They can proudly declare themselves as the masters of this world, standing above all creatures.
Kings can look down upon everything.
But they also clearly understand what trust and cooperation mean.
When the Reborn King and Lu Yu were enemies, their conflict had reached a point where neither could survive unless the other perished.
However, there was no personal vendetta between the two; it was merely a conflict of interests.
Now that we are in a cooperative relationship, all past grievances can be put aside.
It’s still all about利益 (lìyì) bringing everyone together. If one can’t let go of past grudges, they truly don’t deserve to be king.
Lu Yu demonstrated the generosity befitting an ally; what else could a king have to hold onto?
Moreover, Lu Yu’s attitude greatly satisfied the King of Rebirth.
King Reincarnation even happily stood up and clapped his hands on the table.
“Lu Yu, you’re as straightforward as they say in the rumors,” the Reborn King thought, still harboring some lingering reservations, though they no longer seemed very important now.
“This isn’t about being generous—it’s about the trust that allies should have toward each other. Since we’ve become allies, even if only temporarily, there are some things between us that shouldn’t be measured by money,” Lu Yu replied with a smile.
“Do you know about the Sleeping Space?” the Regeneration King asked, looking at Lu Yu.
“Sleeping space?” Lu Yu shook his head in confusion.
“Yeah, you might not know or have noticed yet,” the Reincarnation King said. “That is an infinite space, where countless powerful beasts lie in slumber.”
Lu Yu’s expression shifted slightly as he asked, “The space of the fierce beasts you mentioned?”
He had heard some of it from an elderly man in the city of Si Jiucheng before, and now upon hearing the words of the Reincarnation King, everything suddenly connected in his mind.
“You know about it?” the Rebirth King said in surprise. “You call it the Beast Realm? Hmm, that’s as good a name as any. The creatures inside are indeed fierce.”
Lu Yu nodded and said, “If what we’re both referring to is actually the same thing, then perhaps it’s simply called by a different name. The sleeping life forms within the Beast Realm are connected to the external space. When beasts within a certain area are hunted and killed, corresponding life forms will emerge in the Beast Realm to replenish the beasts in that area, right?”
“Yeah. It seems like we’re talking about the same thing. I think calling it the ‘Beast Realm’ is more appropriate. From now on, let’s just call it the Beast Realm.” Reborn King nodded and said, “This secret is something I haven’t shared with Abu She.”
When he mentioned this, the king’s expression still showed some disdain.
Regenerating King did not acknowledge Abushe’s abilities.
Death is the ultimate proof.
The strong do not perish; only the weak die.
“The reason I brought you back to life as the Regeneration King is because you were the only one who successfully led my people into the Beast’s Lair and returned alive. You once mentioned to me that there’s a core crystal inside the Beast’s Lair, though you didn’t know its nature. Since that object is located within the Beast’s Lair, it must be something extraordinary.”
The Reborn King looked at Lu Yu, narrowing his eyes, and said, “If you’re interested, you can try to see if you have the ability to obtain it.”
“Does Your Lordship not know the function of that item either?” Lu Yu asked in surprise, looking at the Reborn King.
“Even the Reincarnation King can merely catch a glimpse and is unable to estimate the value of that object. Moreover, whether it is the pillar supporting the Beast Realm or the device controlling the Beasts remains unknown. Furthermore, the real key point is that the Beast Realm is the first wave of the apocalypse tide. You should understand that the more you know about the Beast Realm, the more advantageous it will be, right?”
“That’s right,” Lu Yu replied with a nod.
He had also been thinking about entering the Beast Realm recently.
Just don’t have the time.
After hearing the secret told by the Reincarnation King, he wanted to go there even more.
“Ten of these weapons every month, not one less.”
The Reborn King handed the weapon back to Lu Yu, then stood up and left.
He came here because of the cooperation matters.
He wanted to know just how far his collaboration with Lu Yu could go and needed to find out.
Now he is very satisfied with the result.
Lu Yu and Liu Xing saw off the Reborn King.
Before leaving, the Reincarnation King told Lu Yu the name of the Reincarnation King’s honored title, hoping that Lu Yu would resurrect him as soon as possible.
Even if Lu Yu didn’t go to the Beast Realm, he was still preparing to go in and take a look.
The figure of the Reborn King vanished at the end of the street—
Liu Xing whispered, “Mr. Lu, do you really believe what the Reincarnation King said? Not long ago, you were still in a life-and-death battle against him.”
“If he, as a king, cannot let go of these matters, I really wonder whether such a person is worth continuing to work with,” Lu Yu said with a smile. “I’ve already helped him resurrect a king, which should be more than enough to show my sincerity. I hope he can forget the unpleasant past. That’s all I can do. If he truly still holds hatred in his heart, then our cooperation ends right here.”
Liu Xing nodded, realizing that Lu Yu had been prepared long ago.
That’s great. Such cooperation is just a part of what’s happening in Fanggang.
…
Wars and conflicts continue to emerge in various parts of the world.
The world has become much calmer.
Since Lu Yu joined forces with the armored warrior, all major factions have witnessed the terrifying power of the Guardian forces.
Assassins have attempted to kill the Guardian.
Although he did not succeed, he still managed to severely injure his opponent.
Some guardians have begun to absorb various factions within their own countries and started to expand their influence.
Some guardians are even attempting to collaborate with each other.
A wide variety of news is stirring up various factions and major organizations.
The situation in Huaxia began to change slightly with the emergence of the Reincarnated King.
The Chinese military and the army of the Reborn King have clearly become the two most formidable force groups.
As for Fanggang, it remains just a city.
Yet in the eyes of the people, there was a terrifying power that seemed to surpass even the military and the king.
This place appears even more prosperous and tranquil.
…
Australia.
This is no small country, and even in the post-apocalyptic era, there are still many bustling cities.
The situation here, as in many countries around the world today, continues to involve ongoing conflicts among guardians, military forces, and numerous factions.
Where the Guardians and various factions clashed, the earth cracked open and the ground was stained with blood.
The power of the Guardians is immense. A single Guardian, along with his legion, has engaged in battle against dozens of factions across Australia simultaneously, without showing any sign of defeat.
The more people come to understand the Guardians, the more they fear their power.
Behind the major powers, everything remained calm and peaceful.
“It’s almost done; just a little more to go.” Several high-ranking officials in the Australian military became excited after receiving an intelligence report.
“In a few days, everything will be over.”
…
India has already become a desolate land.
What was once a nation is now reduced to a wasteland.
On top of these ruins, the heavily armored figure appeared very pleased. Such a vast piece of land had now completely become his own.
During this period, he finally managed to bring all the powerful warriors originally resurrected by Abu She under his own command.
Three Kings, two King Elders, and dozens of powerful warriors possessing the strength of Ten Thousand Sovereigns.
Among them, the most powerful individual actually possessed a star artifact.
But thinking about the loss of his men, he became so enraged that he wished to fight Lu Yu to the death right away.
Being outmaneuvered by Lu Yu dealt him a heavy blow.
Moreover, the fact that Abu She’s name had been absent from the resurrection list for a long time made him even more worried.
He used a special method to resurrect Abu She, but didn’t expect that Abu She’s will to die would be so resolute, and that he would die so quickly.
Almost at the moment of resurrection, it self-destructed.
The armored figure also noticed that Abu She had been revived and died again, realizing that Abu She was determined to die.
However, he underestimated Abushe’s determination to die and his abilities, which led to his failure.
Apushi could fall into anyone’s hands, but it was only when he thought of it ending up with Lu Yu that he felt the most worried.
At this moment, in the central building of the only city in India, a warrior shouted loudly from underground: “Found it. There’s a box here.”
The armored man laughed heartily upon hearing this and said, “A Bushai, you really know how to hide things well. To conceal something so important in such a secret place.”
From the deep pit underground, two Indians, covered in dust and dirt, carried a box that was about two feet square and climbed out.
The armored figure took the box, glanced at it, and then signaled the two Indians to open it.
The two Indians turned pale with fear and were also afraid to approach the box, dreading that it might contain something terrible.
The heavily armored figure slammed a person directly into a blood-soaked pulp.
Another Indian trembled as he unscrewed the lock on the box and lifted the lid open with one hand.
“Au!”
“Roar!”
…
An endless roar of beasts spread throughout the city at this moment.
The armored man saw a disk-shaped stone inside the box in front of him.
The moment the box was opened, the stone shattered.
The next second, the city sprang into motion, and the earth became covered in a dense network of cracks like a spider web.
The crack began at the feet of the crowd and spread outward in all directions.
“Roar!”
The entire city was echoing with beastly roars.
Bang!
Underground in the building where the armored figure was located, one beast after another crawled out of the darkness. Each one seemed like a ferocious creature that had been starved for millions of years. As soon as they emerged, they lunged toward the armored figure and the others.
A portion of the armored man’s memories seemed to unlock instantaneously. He threw his head back with a strange howl, shouting, “Apushai, I will definitely find you and make you wish you were dead!”
His eyes were actually oozing blood, and the fury around him made the several kings nearby feel terrified.
…
Lu Yu and the armored man joined forces to destroy India on the 62nd day.
All operational satellites around the world are now focused on India.
It became a world of beasts.
Beneath the earth, from one deep, abyss-like black hole after another, countless beasts crawled out.
Demon King level, Supreme level…
That’s a number you can’t even count, impossible to calculate at all.
Because the entire land of India is filled with beasts.
Layer upon layer, dense and countless, they were even more terrifying than a swarm of locusts.
These beasts not only destroyed India’s last city, but also surged toward all the surrounding countries.
China, Ba Kingdom…
All countries bordering India have been affected by these beasts.
The sudden appearance of the ferocious beast swarm was too abrupt; in an instant, it destroyed several cities in the countries neighboring India.
By the time countries realized what was happening, those cities had already been reduced to ruins, with no survivors left.
“You know what? Just now, my friend brought me a message from the military. The heavily armored man and his army were surrounded by a beast swarm. After finally breaking free, they lost two-thirds of their elite forces.”
This news sent shockwaves around the world.
The mighty guardian was actually driven back by a pack of beasts.
India is finished.
The heavily armored warriors suffered even greater losses.
What Abu She left to the armored man was Pandora’s box, not anything of inestimable value.
It wasn’t until the armored man realized he had been tricked that he finally understood the meaning of Abu Sha’s roar of “mutual destruction.”
He didn’t perish together with Abu She, but half of his achievements over these years were destroyed.
Abushe had long ago planted this bomb capable of destroying India, and then erased the memory of this part.
And whoever obtained everything from him also equated to destroying themselves.
The armored man escaped from India, and along the way, he was targeted by at least dozens of assassination attempts.
More and more people around him were dying.
Even a king paid with his life.
“I will kill you. I will kill every single one of you,” the heavily armored figure trembled with rage, standing in his own city, and sternly ordered a nearby human: “Prepare for me. I am going to meet the King of Hell.”
