Lu Yu felt that each wave of pressure was increasing exponentially.
The surge of the beast tide was not only a physical onslaught but also an increasing mental pressure.
When the seventh wave reached its midpoint, his body could barely withstand it anymore.
By the end of the seventh wave, he had already lost count of how many attacks he had endured, and for the first time, spat out a mouthful of blood.
He and Huanmo stood against hundreds of millions of beasts, unable to rest, becoming true killing machines.
When the seventh wave ended, Lu Yu felt like his body was about to fall apart.
However, Lu Yu’s heart was equally filled with excitement as well. He could feel the joy within his body.
He had already gained complete mastery over the operation of that power; every movement, every gesture, his entire body became a deadly weapon.
The power within his body can attack in accordance with his movements.
A punch, a finger strike, or an impact can all unleash power.
The eighth wave of the beast tide still did not include any Golden Beasts. However, the group of beasts at this point had already reached the peak of the Zun level, making every strike from Lu Yu unable to kill them outright. He became defensive, and this situation proved even more challenging than battling a King-level opponent.
For a full ten days and ten nights, Lu Yu felt as if his arms no longer belonged to him.
He could feel the power expanding within his body at the initial stage. In an instant, this power surpassed the limits of the first level, surging forth like a flood breaking through a dam!
Every cell, every inch of flesh and blood is generating strength.
To his surprise, he discovered that despite being at the first level of Star Soul, his strength had already surpassed a thousand jin.
“Beyond my limits, I grow stronger!” Lu Yu laughed heartily, and his arms, which had been too exhausted to lift, now surged with renewed strength.
Before him stretched an endless tide of beasts, yet he remained fearless.
This is evolution and transformation.
He is pushing his body through an evolution between limits.
Lu Yu just didn’t realize that he was only making himself stronger.
One thousand catties, one thousand two hundred catties, one thousand three hundred catties…
After the eighth wave of the beast tide ended, Lu Yu was almost on the verge of collapse.
But he felt he could still go beyond.
Level one Star Soul, three thousand jin of strength—it has already surpassed ordinary people, akin to the ancient myths of those who could lift a thousand jin.
…
The ninth wave of the beast tide arrived, and Lu Yu’s body began to sustain wounds. Beasts at the King-level had already reached an attacking force approaching a hundred zongs, which was the current limit his body could endure.
His power was still growing, continuously surpassing.
His seemingly unimposing figure exudes a latent power capable of collapsing the heavens and earth.
In the tenth wave, the Gold Beast appeared. He also released the skill of the Demon Explosion Eagle, and the Phantom Demon’s skill was also the Demon Explosion Eagle.
Ten Golden Beasts with attacking power reaching a thousand zuns, and swarms of Beast Kings with attacking power all above a hundred zuns.
In this battle, Lu Yu saw his own limits.
Both he and his phantom beast were severely injured. When the last beast fell, he could hardly wait to crawl out.
“Ten waves of beast tides, a reward of one thousand billion Star Spirit Stones in total, five hundred and sixty Blue Star Souls, and actually a main material for a Star Artifact was rewarded to me as well!” Lu Yu laughed heartily as he calculated his gains.
It was worth it —
…
Outside the stone gate of the Beast Plains, Bai Xiaofei and other young generation experts, as well as Richard and other elder generation experts, were all waiting.
A day within the realm of ferocious beasts equates to merely an hour in the outside world.
Lu Yu went in as well.
This news spread rapidly through the city of Shi Men, causing an immediate sensation.
Lu Yu also entered with the crowd, and they didn’t even notice.
When Will came out and told his father that Lu Yu had also entered the Beast Plains, Richard’s eyebrows furrowed tightly.
At first, someone came forward to say that he didn’t believe this news.
Now he believes.
How could Lu Yu enter this special place with his strength suppressed below the Star Lord level?
Especially after Will revealed the details about Lu Yu’s physical evolution, Richard’s expression became even more animated.
Instead of leaving, he waited in front of the stone gate.
And when everyone learned that Lu Yu was among them, they all chose to stay without prior agreement.
Because Richard is here, and because Lu Yu is inside.
This is the first time that the two most powerful human experts on Earth have met since Richard became the King of Kings.
They were waiting, waiting for Lu Yu to come out, eager to see if there would be a major confrontation between these two great masters.
Richard’s strength is beyond doubt.
He successively killed several Kings and Kings’ Guardians who had not yet reached their peak, and even managed to slay a Guardian.
Everyone knows that Richard is the strongest now.
Even many awakened kings dared not to confront Richard.
Lu Yu is not Wang Zun, let alone a king. He may possess the talent of an uncrowned king, but can he truly stand alongside Richard?
Everyone was waiting.
They knew that while an hour passed outside, a whole day would pass within.
After Will and others came out, Lu Yu remained inside for a full thirty days and still hadn’t come out.
“Could he have died inside?” someone said with schadenfreude.
“I actually hope he dies in there. That way, Huaxia will lose one of its guardians. What qualifications will Huaxia then have left to compete with us?”
Representatives from some organizations were whispering among themselves.
No matter how powerful the Huaxia people are, no matter how much respect they show on the surface, deep down they still look down upon this race.
Day 37—
A ripple resembling water patterns shimmered across the stone gate.
Richard’s gaze suddenly sharpened.
He saw a person appear within the stone gate.
He was too familiar with that figure.
In the military records, all the history about this person is extremely detailed.
However, after the end of the world, the abilities of this person will forever remain a matter of speculation and inference.
“It’s out!” Li Jiayi clapped her hands and cheered from a distance.
For so many days, she believed that Uncle Lu, at the very least, had already survived the seventh wave of the beast tide.
Before the crowd appeared Lu Yu, whose strength was merely at the first level.
However, in the instant Lu Yu appeared, everyone’s pupils constricted in astonishment.
Although Lu Yu was clearly only at Level 1, the crowd could feel an aura of strength on him equivalent to ten thousand jin.
For the Supreme, this power of ten thousand jin is but a mere fraction of a cow’s hair.
However, for a first-level Star Soul, the strength of ten thousand jin had long surpassed the limit and become heavenly!
“This, how is this possible!” someone stammered, finding it utterly unbelievable.
“He has broken through the limit of the first-class Star Soul.”
Lu Yu’s state in front of the crowd lasted only a second; in an instant, an overwhelming force surged rapidly, as if mountains were collapsing and the sea were surging.
After breaking through to the Star Lord level with the power of ten thousand jin, the power on Lu Yu’s body surged directly to a thousand zuns, and then…
Two thousand, three thousand, four thousand…
The speed of improvement exceeded everyone’s expectations.
Many people blinked repeatedly, thinking they were experiencing an illusion.
When Lu Yu’s power surged to nine thousand zuns, everyone couldn’t help but feel a chill run down their spine.
Lu Yu’s power had actually reached such a level.
Although Lu Yu still had some gap from reaching the power of Ten Thousand Venerables, warriors who possessed the strength of Ten Thousand Venerables were merely fodder for instant annihilation in his presence. Such a scenario had already occurred during that great battle in India.
Who dares to underestimate Lu Yu?
“What, this is the power of ten thousand!” someone exclaimed in shock, realizing that Lu Yu’s strength had not stopped growing.
It’s almost there, too fast.
When the power of ten thousand zvols was reached, many people already showed envious expressions.
This is the limit of human capability.
“It’s still improving, eleven thousand statues!” someone shouted loudly. “He’s truly the king without a crown, really is!”
Now they had no doubts anymore.
That night in the city of Si Jiucheng, many people were not present and did not know whether Lu Yu’s reputation as an unrivaled champion was truly deserved or not.
But now they believe.
Only the uncrowned king is qualified to break through the limit of ten thousand honors.
Lu Yu’s strength remained at eleven thousand and five hundred statues.
Lu Yu couldn’t help but feel a start of surprise in his heart.
He stayed in the ferocious beast space for a long time, but time was frozen inside, so his strength showed no sign of recovery.
But back to reality, it had long exceeded the ten-day weakness limit of his revived life.
Therefore, Lu Yu’s power increased rapidly.
His initial level of power already reached ten thousand jin, so the subsequent improvements also changed accordingly.
Unexpectedly, his original attribute, which was inferior to the power of ten thousand zuns, actually broke through due to the凶兽 space.
With a strength of eleven thousand and five hundred zuns, he has already surpassed the limit of ten thousand zuns.
Beyond the stone gate, there was only the sound of heavy breathing; everyone’s heart seemed to stop beating.
Richard clasped his hands behind his back, gazing down like a king surveying his subjects, and declared with boundless overbearing pride, “Lu Yu, it’s our first meeting. I am Richard, the Sovereign of Howling Annihilation!”
He was only ten zhang away from Lu Yu, close enough for both to clearly see each other’s faces and facial expressions.
Lu Yu saw Richard as soon as he came out. At that moment, he sensed a fighting spirit from Richard and nodded, saying, “I know who you are. I was there in person the day you became the Howling Annihilation King, and I watched you destroy an entire city!”
“I’ve been to Fanggang several times before, but never had the chance to meet you. Meeting you here today, I don’t want to miss this opportunity,” Richard stepped forward, his fighting spirit surging as he said excitedly, “They say the King Without a Crown can rival an actual King. As a King’s Esteem, I want to see for myself whether the strength of the King Without a Crown is truly as formidable as rumored!”
He had waited for too long.
The entire world is gasping under the pressure of this individual before them, and Huaxia has provoked countless people’s desire. Yet precisely because of Lu Yu’s existence, no one has dared to provoke Huaxia on that vast continent, all because of Lu Yu’s presence.
Richard knew he was invincible now.
But whenever someone mentions him, people inevitably compare him with Lu Yu.
Who is stronger, and who is even stronger?
He wants a result.
He doesn’t need any comparisons; he is the invincible one.
Boom! Boom!
Surging within Richard was a breath like falling stars, each gasp resembling the roar and howl of a warrior with the strength of ten thousand men.
His chest rose slightly, and countless cracks spread through the surrounding void.
This is Wang Zun, the true power of Wang Zun.
Everyone was retreating.
They were well aware of the extent of the impact once Richard took action.
“Have you been waiting for a long time?” Lu Yu looked toward Richard and said, “I’ve been waiting too. However, do you and I really need to let these people witness our fight?”
“Are you afraid of failing?” Richard laughed heartily. “If you’re scared, then let’s go somewhere else instead.”
Richard said as he took out a black orb, “I paid a fortune to the Celestial Deity Organization for a piece of void space. There, we can fight to our heart’s content without worrying about being disturbed.”
“Failure?” Lu Yu was taken aback, then burst into laughter. “Lord Wangzun, you underestimate me. Once we step into that void space, the outcome remains uncertain.”
“Then let’s go in!” Richard crushed the black orb, and a gate made of starlight appeared before him.
