“Congratulations to everyone in Fang Gang City. You have successfully repelled the Descent of Darkness. From now until the end of the first wave of the Apocalypse Tide, this city and the area within ten miles will no longer suffer any attacks from the Mists of Death. Please rest, and prepare to face the second wave of the Apocalypse Tide.”
The voice from the sky was like celestial music, repeating the same words three times in succession.
At Fanggang, there was a moment when everything was extremely quiet, a silence so profound it felt terrifying.
The people inside the city did not believe it, and those on the city walls believed it even less.
Countless people at the port were cheering, but even more stood rooted to the spot, stunned and motionless.
Even after the sound had long faded away, many people still found it hard to believe.
The people around them were cheering and jumping with excitement, while they stood still in shock, finding it all too unbelievable.
They watched as the black mist vanished before their eyes, feeling as if they were dreaming.
Because the day before, the city had still been a place of terrifying slaughter, with ten thousand beasts attacking the city as if they were about to devour both the people and the city itself.
They watched as dozens of kings joined forces and charged forward, the power of each king’s skill once again engulfing the entire city. Even those who resisted with all their might found themselves shattered, their bones broken repeatedly.
Although this won’t kill them, it will pin them down, preventing them from lifting their heads and seeing the battlefield clearly.
But merely by sensing, they could also feel the intensity of the war.
Darkness descended without retreat, almost engulfing more than half of the defensive port.
Such a battle, in their eyes, could not possibly be decided within a year.
However, everything changed in the instant when the twenty Star Artifacts were forged.
The beast’s roar in the dark mist vanished, and the pressure within the city also disappeared.
Everything fell silent, and even the sounds nearby became so clear.
“The descent of darkness couldn’t even be penetrated by the king himself. Why were we able to pass through so easily?”
Many people still don’t believe it, even until now.
It was just too sudden.
Not until the black mist had receded beyond sight did everyone in the city finally react.
“We have won, we have won.”
People looked at Lu Yu, with admiration and awe.
Even if Lu Yu didn’t become king, would it really matter?
It is enough that he can still lead people to victory.
“They actually passed. They really passed.”
“The darkness that can even kill kings has arrived, yet in Fanggang, not a single king was slain.”
This is simply unbelievable.
Leaders of various organizations and regions have already responded.
They took the star device from Lu Yu’s hands at the first opportunity and quickly left the harbor.
The transmission has already been activated.
They can quickly return to their respective countries.
Fanggang would not be in danger again until the first wave of the Doomsday Tide was over.
This city is safe.
They don’t need to keep a large number of troops here.
But their country, their city is still under threat!
The British military, accompanied by three star artifacts and seven kings, moved swiftly, as they needed to return to their country to provide support at the earliest opportunity.
The Huaxia military and the Celestial Deity Organization took away seven Star Artifacts and ten Kings.
The U.S. military also left with their own people.
They took away the most elite combat forces stationed here.
The port city suddenly became much quieter.
But at this time, quite a few people had indeed arrived here.
The sound from the sky wasn’t just heard in Fanggang; it resonated throughout the entire world.
To those who had rushed here, the city before them was the safest sanctuary in this world!
Initially, there were only hundreds of people who gathered outside the territory, hoping that Fanggang would review them to determine if they were qualified to enter.
However, within less than an hour, this number increased by more than tenfold.
They left their respective cities by means of teleportation, hoping to seek opportunities here.
Now, except for Fanggang, all other cities are like dark hell, and survival is becoming increasingly difficult.
But this is not the end yet.
Because the number of people outside Fanggang quickly exceeded tens of thousands, and the number was still increasing.
So many people crowded outside the Fanggang area, pleading for Lu Yu to accept them.
Many of them are Wang Zuns, and there are also numerous warriors with the strength of ten thousand Zuns.
Someone raised a Spirit Pearl high and shouted, “Let me in, I have something rare for Lu Yu.”
Some people also said, “I possess the rudimentary skills of a king. Given time, I will surely become a king.”
“Mr. Lu, our organization has had transactions with yours before. We are willing to pay. Please let us in.”
All kinds of sounds were becoming noisy and shrill, bustling and chaotic outside Fanggang City.
People from all regions want to be accepted.
But they had received orders from Lu Yu — not allowing any of these people to enter. If they were allowed to abandon other cities today and flee here for refuge, then when Fanggang faces danger in the future, these people would certainly run away again.
Lu Yu didn’t want to waste time on these people.
“Tell them that there’s no place for them in Fanggang. Leave immediately. If they don’t leave before nightfall, I’ll deploy the domain guardians to personally eliminate them.”
This city belongs to Fanggang, and no one dares to defy Lu Yu’s orders.
People outside the city couldn’t help but curse.
This city has even repelled the descent of darkness itself. Can they withstand the counterattack of the Domain Guardian?
Those outside the city, though unwilling, could only retreat.
In the core area of Fanggang, Luo Haotian and others had gathered here.
The undead puppet has ten thousand opportunities to replicate itself.
At the time of the distribution, Lu Yu owned thirty percent, and the elder also held thirty percent.
Before deciding to leave, the old man gave all his remaining chances to Lu Yu.
Lu Yu now has more than 5,000 available uses remaining.
Since Fanggang has now demonstrated the ability of a dead puppet.
Then its existence is no longer a secret.
Those who follow their warriors are qualified to possess these king-level puppets.
I believe the blood of the kings would not wish for their puppets to run rampant all over the place.
Lu Yu still had 270 drops of the black mist wolf king’s blood in his possession.
He divided some of the Wolf King’s blood among them.
Luo Haotian and the other thirty-four kings without crowns each used two drops, totaling seventy drops.
The other eight people who initially followed Lu Yu, including Shi Hu, each received two drops as well.
Lu Yu gave the remaining eighty-eight drops to Liu Xing.
As long as anyone meets the conditions in the core areas of Fanggang, they can obtain a drop of blood, which is equivalent to possessing a king-level puppet.
Certainly, the premise of this condition is a test of loyalty.
Lu Yu handed these matters over to Liu Xing and no longer inquired about them.
As for him, there was far too much to do.
The emergence of the ability of the undead puppet will likely draw the attention of the divine spokesperson immediately.
It might also draw the attention of some kings.
He needed the city to become safer and also needed to enhance his own strength.
For example, on the same night when the dark descended and Fang Gang departed, all the city’s Heaven-Sundering King puppets ascended to kingship.
This signifies that the Sky-splitting King has also returned to his throne.
This was his great enemy, but now that the Sky-splitting King had ascended as king, Lu Yu actually began to laugh.
Because he possessed thirty Heaven-Sundering King puppets, when the Heaven-Sundering King became a king, it was equivalent to instantly gaining thirty king-level puppets!
That was also the hidden trump card he had been concealing all along.
When someone in the city instantly sensed the aura of these thirty Heaven-Sundering Kings, they immediately knew what had happened.
“My God, Lu Yu has fought against many kings before. He doesn’t just possess the Blood of the Sky-splitting King; I suspect the Blood of other Kings like the Ten-thousand Snake King and the Thunder King have also ended up in his hands after their encounters with him.”
“Doesn’t that mean there are still many puppets who have not become kings in the core areas?”
Many people felt dizzy, sensing that the city built by Lu Yu was even more terrifying than the arrival of darkness.
If this city remains unbroken, no one can tell how many more astonishing things lie within its core domains.
In Fanggang alone, there were already sixty king-level puppets, and this number did not even include the king-level puppets that Luo Haotian and others would eventually possess.
The elderly Chinese man immediately sought out Lu Yu upon learning about the emergence of the thirty Heaven-Sundering King puppets.
“Borrow thirty puppets from me. Name your terms,” the old man said seriously, looking directly at Lu Yu.
“Loan?” Lu Yu looked at the old man in surprise.
“That’s right. Lend me thirty puppets, and preferably someone like Luo Haotian who can control them,” the old man said seriously. “Just because Fangang is safe doesn’t mean other cities are safe too. Although Qi Xue and them have become Kings, they aren’t qualified enough to suppress the descent of darkness. The number of Star Artifacts is limited, so we must now use King-level puppets to make up for the gap in strength.”
“Can that place where one can infinitely enhance their strength be entered again?” Lu Yu asked.
“The entrance is allowed,” nodded the old man. “If you lend me thirty puppets, I’ll let you in.”
“Deal.”
Lu Yu reached out and shook hands with the elderly man.
The old man took out a dagger and handed it directly to Lu Yu, who in turn temporarily transferred the control of the thirty Heaven-Sundering King puppets to the thirty warriors brought by the old man.
The temporary control means that although the Chinese military has the capability to control these king-level puppets.
However, the ultimate control still remains in Lu Yu’s hands, and he can summon these King-level puppets at any time.
With these thirty puppets, the crises in various cities of Huaxia should be resolved.
The old man taught Lu Yu how to use a dagger and some precautions to take after entering the space.
Lu Yu left the harbor as soon as possible.
That space still exists in the desert; due to its extreme secrecy, no one has discovered it.
Lu Yu felt several streams of black mist wandering above the desert.
He immediately suppressed his breath, not wanting to be detected by the black mist.
After entering the space, Lu Yu immediately found himself in another spatial realm.
The place he entered was a starry sky, filled with nothingness.
Lu Yu activated the space using the method taught by the elder and listed in front of him all the abilities he needed to cultivate.
“It’s not necessary to evolve only the strongest ability,” Lu Yu said with great delight, looking at the countless choices of abilities. “If that’s the case, can I choose to evolve different abilities?”
Before Lu Yu’s eyes, the cultivation of each ability corresponded to a different space.
For example, the power of the Poison Dragon King corresponds to a space filled with all kinds of poisons.
Inside, you can endlessly absorb various different poisons, then strengthen your own poison with them.
His strongest power is no longer just one ability. Especially his poison, it has reached a level where even a king cannot escape once affected, capable of destroying even star-forged weapons.
The Starlight Sword gave him a hint: not all abilities need to be powerful, and having more abilities is not always better.
Even when a certain ability is enhanced to its limit, it remains terrifying.
“If I focus on poison, then to improve further, I should naturally continue focusing on poison,” Lu Yu said immediately, selecting the Poison Dimension.
Boom!
The winds and clouds around Lu Yu were ever-changing, and the stars in the sky shifted their positions.
A thick cloud of poisonous mist began to rise beneath his feet, and within the mist, numerous venomous dragons soared through the air.
Lu Yu inhaled a breath of mist, and a sharp pain momentarily surged through his body, as if flesh and blood were being corroded.
“There’s no poison left that can hurt me anymore.”
Lu Yu sat down cross-legged. In an instant, his body transformed into something like a bottomless abyss, drawing in toxic gases from an area spanning tens of thousands of zhang into himself.
The toxic gas transformed into a tornado stretching tens of thousands of feet long and nearly a thousand feet wide.
He became the vortex at the center of the storm, drawing in one-third of the surrounding tornadoes into his body with each breath.
A large amount of toxic gas entered the body, and the internal toxicity was immediately activated, beginning to assist the flesh in absorbing these toxins.
His flesh and blood were pulsing. As he absorbed the toxic gas, his power actually began to grow stronger!
