Chapter 816: Control (1)

The Ten Thousand Poison Realm possesses boundless poison, resembling the Blood Sea where the Bloodline Heir once stayed.

Lu Yu swallowed nearly ten thousand zhang of toxic gas in one breath, and the surrounding toxic gas immediately replenished the space.

His flesh and blood were pulsing violently. After this breath of toxic gas had been completely consumed and absorbed, his three main attributes had increased by ten levels.

The attribute of the Ten Honors—nothing excessive.

Compared to his attribute of one and a half million statues, these ten are really too few!

Lu Yu took one minute to digest the toxic energy, enhancing his cultivation by ten levels. That’s quite fast!

Lu Yu swallowed the second mouthful of toxic gas, and his attributes continued to rise.

The promotion of the Ten Honored Ones.

Lu Yu’s heart skipped a beat.

If calculated like this, he could enhance his attributes by as much as 14,400 in a single day.

This is the cultivation of decades for so many people; even a genius would need half a year to a year of cultivation.

He abandoned all other thoughts and desperately began to inhale the toxic gas.

The time here flows the same as the time outside; each day that passes here corresponds to a full day passing in the outside world.

He can obtain information provided by the demon.

In some cities, the black fog has been driven away, and once again, someone has become king.

Lu Yu only pays attention to important information and ignores the rest.

On the tenth day, the power of the Poison Dragon King within Lu Yu remained unchanged, but the first to change was actually the Demon-Explosion Eagle.

It seemed that due to the overall enhancement of toxins, the魔爆鹰 advanced by leaps and bounds in an instant.

The time during which the Demon-Explosion Eagle coexisted with its host had reached its limit, leading to a physical transformation through assimilation.

The Demon Explosion Eagle evolves into the Venom Explosion Eagle, or gains the talent—The Uncrowned King!

“All the Magic Explosive Eagles have evolved?” Lu Yu was greatly shocked and said, “They even evolved into the Unchallenged King? No, that can’t be true, right?”

Is it a gift or the king without a crown? Does this mean that all Venom Raptors can now infinitely enhance their strength from today onward?

Lu Yu felt a bit as if he had been hit by a lucky stone.

He quickly checked the information about the Magic Exploding Eagle within him, and it had indeed changed.

Every Eagle Bomber transformed into a Venom Bomber, and each one now possessed the innate talent of the Uncrowned King.

Even without other skills, a Venomous Skyhawk is already extremely terrifying, with its venom alone being enough to inspire fear.

Moreover, Lu Yu had collected quite a few Bursting Eagles in Shicheng.

When he finally left Stone City, he had as many as 34,000 Demon-Explosion Eagles under his command.

It’s now equivalent to possessing thirty-four thousand boundless, infinitely improving beasts of the uncrowned king.

Would King be able to survive a round of their bombardment?

Lu Yu carefully examined the attributes of Du Bao Ying and was equally astonished!

Toxic Blast Eagle:

Rank: Supreme.

Talent: The King Without a Crown.

Attributes: Maximum HP 10,000 Zun, Attack Power 10,000 Zun, Muscles and Bones 10,000 Zun!

Skill: Impact Detonation – At the cost of its own explosion, the Toxic Blast Eagle unleashes an impact force of twenty thousand joules within a ten-meter radius, ignoring the defensive resilience of all living beings.

Ability – Poison King’s Body: After the Toxic Blast Eagle explodes, even with a shattered body, it can continuously regenerate within the poison gas. Each regeneration consumes varying amounts of vitality depending on the severity of the damage. As long as the魔爆鹰 (Toxic Blast Eagle) has remaining life points that allow it to regenerate, it can infinitely重生 (regenerate/rebirth) within the toxic fumes.

Ability – Ten Thousand Eagle Fusion: When all the Venomous Blast Eagles are fused together, they can transform into a single, immensely powerful Venomous Blast Eagle with combined strength. The shockwave explosion it unleashes will deal double the attack damage.

“How come the attributes of the Ten Thousand Eagles Fusion are so terrifying?”

When Lu Yu saw the last skill, he couldn’t help but be startled.

Now, the attributes of a single Toxic Blast Eagle are already ten thousand zuns. When you combine thirty-four thousand魔爆鹰, their attributes stack up to a total of three hundred and forty million zuns!

“I currently have less than two million attribute points. How can a single skill have three hundred and forty million attribute points? Is this even a skill anymore? If it’s doubled damage output—”

Lu Yu was calculating the numbers and even startled himself.

Moreover, this isn’t even the limit, since the attributes of the Unofficial King can be enhanced infinitely.

Lu Yu released all the Venomous Explosive Eagles and allowed these creatures to absorb the toxic gas.

Even a single increase in merging results in a post-merging enhancement of more than 30,000 attributes.

“I wonder how many attributes are required to annihilate a king.”

Lu Yu kept talking to himself, continuing to inhale the toxic gas without stopping.

On the twentieth day after he entered the space, news arrived from Fanggang.

The Huaxia region was mostly liberated, but countless clusters of black mist still roamed the plains.

Due to the Beast King’s crystal, the number of kings in the Chinese military led by King Wang increased to a hundred. These kings joined forces, utilizing king-level puppets and star artifacts to begin hunting down clusters of black mist.

Many kings who had survived from other eras were greatly astonished.

This era is too terrible.

Many kings who had experienced the descent of darkness were left speechless.

Could it actually be possible for humanity to suppress even the arrival of darkness?

Britain lost four cities, with casualties exceeding hundreds of millions. They had basically repelled all the black mist, and what remained was merely hunting down the remnants.

After all, the crystals within the Beast King’s body were invaluable to them, as each crystal represented a king.

The interconnected steel cities of America shrank by one-third, with fifty million soldiers perishing.

Major organizations also had cities that survived.

The number of Kings was increasing rapidly, and by the thirtieth day after Lu Yu entered the space, their count had already exceeded four hundred.

A single organization has at least five Kings, while countries like Huaxia possess even more.

It was also on this day that people noticed a star in the night sky growing increasingly bright and larger.

It seemed to be moving toward Earth.

On the thirty-first day after Lu Yu entered the space, his original skill, Fire Dragon Explosion, was actually corroded and consumed by his own powerful toxicity.

It was also on this day that the Poison Dragon King’s power finally evolved.

His other abilities remain unchanged, but he has gained an additional skill from his Poison Dragon King power.

Poison King Armor – forged from your boundless toxic power, it can be repaired using life force, with each repair consuming a hundred units of vitality.

As long as your vitality remains, your Poison King Armor will never be destroyed. Attacking the poison armor will also cause damage from its toxic power. As long as the Poison King Armor remains intact, your body will not suffer any harm.

“This is my capital for the battle with Wang,” Lu Yu said. He had already fully understood the use of the skill, just by glancing at it.

For dealing with others, the Poison King Armor isn’t needed.

It would be extremely difficult to break through his own defense.

It’s different when it comes to confronting King Wang.

Each strike from Wang could shatter his body. Therefore, as long as his vitality remains, it ensures that the Poison King Armor remains unbroken, and he himself suffers no harm.

Moreover, with his complete awakening of carnage, even if he now had a total of 1.5 million health points and lost 100 health points per second, he would still be able to battle the king for several hours.

That amount of time was enough for him.

As long as a single drop of blood from the opponent comes into contact with the poison, it’s equivalent to winning.

Day 37—

Liu Xing received a message through Huanmo, confirming that the star in the sky was indeed moving toward Earth.

The speed was immeasurable.

So we don’t know when he will approach Earth.

Whether it was a meteorite or the second wave of the apocalypse, no one could tell for sure.

Lu Yu gave up his rest and did not stop, except for absorbing the toxic gas.

Toxic Blast Eagle’s attributes have been enhanced to fifteen thousand zuns, and his strength has already reached two million zuns.

The past month and a half has not been wasted.

He abandoned even his sleeping time besides cultivation.

Day 58 —

Lu Yu received the information in the space.

The first wave of the apocalypse tide has been repelled.

All the black mist retreated underground. One by one, towering mountains rose from the earth, and wild beasts emerged alongside the appearance of rivers.

A miracle unfolded, as if to announce to the world that a peaceful era had arrived.

“It’s not over yet,” Lu Yu heard the information, but there was not a hint of happiness in him.

This merely signifies that the first wave of the apocalypse tide has been destroyed, so the second wave of the apocalypse tide is certainly coming.

Day 77 —

The star in the sky seemed to draw closer. It was not a star at all, but rather a meteorite as large as a city, capable of sustaining a population of millions.

If it had hit the Earth, the Earth would have been truly destroyed.

Lu Yu’s strength has increased to 2.6 million zuns, and the Poisonous Explosive Eagle’s power has reached 20,000 zuns.

The power of the Poison Dragon King has further evolved; the described abilities indicate that he can now rapidly corrode and destroy star artifacts.

Such a change in ability meant that his poison could now cause significant damage to the king as well.

Because the power of the star artifacts is nearly comparable to that of the King, and in fact, some powerful star artifacts even surpass the King.

Day 78—

The Demon King has sent news that someone has seen a palace rise on a solitary island.

Four king-level stone-carved beast guardians appeared at the perimeter of the palace.

Some people also reported seeing the Sky-splitting King and the Star-soul King appearing somewhere.

“If even the King was drawn here, there must be something valuable inside,” Lu Yu muttered, narrowing his eyes in thought. For the first time in the past three months, he left this space that had allowed him limitless improvement.

Lu Yu’s mind contained coordinates transmitted by the Illusion Demon.

However, his first destination was not Fanggang, but the British military base.

This city has endured the devastation of darkness descending upon it, and now, at the site of the British military headquarters, fewer than one in ten buildings across the city still remain standing.

When Lu Yu appeared alone outside the military headquarters, someone immediately recognized him.

Someone exclaimed in surprise: “So this is Lu Yu?”

Some people also expressed confusion, asking, “Why hasn’t he become king yet?”

“The Fanggang core area definitely has treasures that can replicate king-level puppets. How great it would be if they belonged to us?”

Human nature is greedy.

Lu Yu is not stupid, and his ears are sharp enough—he can hear everything he wants to hear.

“If not for becoming a king, his power would probably be no more than a few million zuns at most. I heard that during the Dark Descent, Lu Yu didn’t even have the chance to fight personally. Even using the Star-Calling Art, his five million zuns of strength were still suppressed by the king.”

“His current strength seems to be unable to rank within the top five hundred worldwide.”

People were talking about it, while some quietly left.

A British lieutenant general personally came out to greet Lu Yu, smiling and saying, “Mr. Lu, what brings you here?”

“I now need some King’s Blood. I heard that you already have nearly a hundred Kings. I wonder if you could spare a portion of each type of King’s Blood for me.”

“This…” The general immediately wore a very embarrassed expression and said, “Mr. Lu, how many do you want?”

Lu Yu asked, “Each king’s royal blood requires a hundred drops; this request isn’t unreasonable, is it?”

Vice Admiral Lu Yu glanced around briefly and whispered, “Let’s continue this discussion inside. It’s not very convenient to talk here.”

The general deliberately walked up to Lu Yu, and as he brushed past him, he slipped a small piece of paper into Lu Yu’s palm as if by accident.

Lu Yu calmly clenched his hand into a fist, then followed the general into the military camp without revealing his emotions.
