Chapter 863: Dragon King’s Might, Eagle King’s Wings

The Sky-Splitting Wings were won by Lu Yu in a bet with the Sky-Splitting King.

Lu Yu has relied on the power of the Sky-Sundering Wings to escape countless times during battles.

The speed of Li Tianyi is sufficient to rival that of some kings.

Especially as Lu Yu’s strength improved, the speed of the Sky-Splitting Wing became even faster.

Unfortunately, Lu Yu was not a king, so he never had the ability to unleash the final power of the裂天翼 (Heaven-Sundering Wing).

This time, he discussed with Kun for a long time, hoping to use the King’s aura within the Eagle King’s wings to see if they could fully harness the power of the Sky-Splitting Wings.

Incorporating the Chengwang skill into the Xingqi as one of its materials is indeed a very bold idea.

Kun must proceed with great caution.

Fifty puppets were prepared, and then the finest materials were sought out.

Because the higher the quality of the materials, the greater the chance of success.

“Lu Yu, are you sure you want to remove your abilities from your body?” Kun said seriously, “Once you remove them, you might not be able to learn again.”

“Come on, give it a try,” Lu Yu said earnestly, nodding his head.

“Then I’ll begin.”

Kun combined dozens of materials using a martial cultivation technique. After the materials were fused, they transformed into liquid-like thorns that pierced into Lu Yu’s body.

Lu Yu let out a pained groan as the agony felt like it was piercing straight into his brain.

The spikes piercing into his body did not directly target his flesh and blood; instead, they transformed into ethereal energy, stabbing straight into his soul.

Lu Yu pressed one hand onto the liquid, then closed his eyes, his eyebrows furrowing tightly together as he endured intense pain.

Because this involves directly searching for and extracting a form of energy within the soul.

Allowing something to penetrate the soul, even the slightest harm can be astonishingly profound.

Lu Yu’s face turned deathly pale in an instant.

Fortunately, he soon found the skill of the裂天翼 (Heaven-Sundering Wing) and quickly extracted it.

This process took six to seven hours to complete.

As the liquid spikes withdrew from Lu Yu’s body, he gasped for breath, his entire body drenched in sweat.

Even Lu Yu’s physical strength was exhausted.

“I’ll begin now,” Kun nodded, starting to control the fifty puppets and initiating the Star-Calling Technique.

Boom!

In an instant, over the port city, fifty-one stars suddenly blazed brightly in the sky.

It was clearly daytime.

However, with fifty-one people simultaneously using the Star-Calling Art, there was no longer any concern about whether it was day or night.

The light beams from fifty-one stars shot straight into the harbor, overshadowing even the sunlight.

The people in the city looked up at the unusual sky and immediately realized that Lu Yu had activated the Star-Calling Art once again to begin forging a star artifact.

Everyone in Xueguang City, twenty kilometers away from Fanggang, was astonished, shocked by the beam of light.

Even the King of Hell could not help but look up at the fifty-one stars in the sky, his heart filled with dread.

Outside Fanggang City, people from various factions were even more alarmed.

“Lu Yu has started refining a star artifact again.”

“What are we going to refine this time?”

They were guessing, and some people got up and left, not intending to wait any longer.

If Lu Yu starts refining the star artifact, it will take at least a month, and waiting for him would be a waste of time.

Even if Lu Yu came out, they dared not say they could guarantee getting the ring.

Therefore, many people simply gave up waiting.

The refinement of the Star Artifact began. Lu Yu and Kun remained in the core area, increasing the injected beams of light to fifty-two.

It was the same alchemical technique practiced by fifty-two people together—constantly refining the materials and then infusing them drop by drop with royal blood.

Wang Wei’s fluctuations were dramatic, each one more astonishing than the last.

The warriors in the Bloodlight City, twenty kilometers away, felt the mysterious energy growing stronger.

On the third day of refining the Star Artifact, Fanggang City lifted the restrictions on the first and second realms, allowing free entry and exit for people.

It was on this day that tens of thousands of young warriors emerged in the city risen from the earth.

They emerged from underground, felt the sunlight on the surface, and then began moving out of the cities and into major urban areas.

Brief prosperity.

Humans and bloodshot eyes appeared in a city.

Nowadays, no one dares to look down upon the Blood Eye, and no one dares to show even a trace of disdain.

These young people entering and leaving major cities are at least as strong as the Sixth Thousand Throne, and some, like the powerful Blood Eye, are already nearly Kings at just twenty-one years old.

They rode their earth dragons, strutting proudly through the streets of city after city, looking down contemptuously upon humanity.

Many people saw mockery and disdain in these bloodshot eyes.

However, Xueyan did not provoke any trouble. Whenever he set his sights on something, he purchased it at the listed price.

The bosses were all very courteous as well, no longer daring to show the slightest hint of discrimination.

In Fanggang City, bloodshot eyes also appeared, but everything remained calm, and nothing actually happened.

People often appear before the core realm, gazing in astonishment and admiration at the fifty-two stars in the sky.

Drop by drop, royal blood was injected into the materials, and both Kun and Lu Yu were extremely cautious.

This time, they spent a full month to fuse the ninety-nine drops of royal blood with the materials.

“Last step now,” Kun said in a deep voice. “Lu Yu, it’s up to you.”

Lu Yu nodded, controlling a one-meter-diameter liquid sphere in the air toward the Eagle King’s wing.

The liquid sphere transformed into countless delicate threads, which extended toward every feather and every inch of flesh on the Eagle King’s wings.

Liquid, like liquid metal, fell onto the eagle king’s wing, instantly splitting into threads finer than hair and penetrating inside.

This requires preserving the original form of the Eagle King’s wing, ensuring its abilities remain undamaged, which is quite different from refining Lu Yu’s body into a star artifact.

Lu Yu is conscious and in control.

However, the Eagle King’s wing was already lifeless and could no longer control itself.

Therefore, control and integration must be managed by a single person.

Kun controlled the Star-Calling Art and the Art of Forging Weapons, while Lu Yu had to completely master the final fusion of these materials.

The two men’s plan was to渗透 the liquid transformed from the materials into every part of the Eagle King’s wing, then allow them to merge with it.

This requires the complete assimilation of every inch of the Eagle King’s wing, down to the finest filament of each feather, ensuring perfect integration with the material.

A process that requires patience, attention to detail, and self-control.

Fortunately, Lu Yu frequently controlled his Ten Billion Blades of Slaughter, along with numerous other objects such as the Black Dragon, and his mastery was sufficient.

What remains is patience and attention to detail.

Lu Yu’s final operation took ten days to complete, during which all the molten metal was injected into the Eagle King’s wing.

Boom!

Fifty-one stars in the sky suddenly blazed with brilliant light, then instantly dimmed and vanished from people’s sight.

The wings of the King of Eagles were originally pitch black, gleaming with a dark luster.

Now, a metallic luster begins to appear on the wings of the King of Eagles, and each downy feather radiates a metallic glow.

Lu Yu tried to touch the eagle’s feather with his hand; the down was still soft.

He could feel the immense power hidden within the downy fibers.

Kun said seriously, “My task is completed. Now it’s up to you.”

Lu Yu nodded, picked up the Eagle King’s Wing, and began the final fusion.

When he used the art of refining soldiers to disassemble the Eagle King’s wing, the wing exploded, and countless beams of starlight shot directly into Lu Yu’s body.

Lu Yu let out a muffled grunt and spat out a mouthful of black blood.

The King of Eagles devoured all things and transformed them into a different kind of poison. Now, as the eagle’s wings are refined into a star artifact, this poison has also merged with the starlight.

Lu Yu’s integration of the Eagle King’s wing is equivalent to absorbing the Eagle King’s poison.

In an instant, Lu Yu’s entire body began to be corroded by a potent toxin, with several areas exposing his bare bones.

Lu Yu gritted his teeth and endured, relying on the power of the Venomous Dragon King to fight against the Eagle King’s poison.

Two deadly toxins were locked in battle within his body.

The Eagle King’s poison has no consciousness; it merely destroys.

Meanwhile, the power of the Poison Dragon King was being controlled by Lu Yu, resisting the Eagle King’s poison while simultaneously devouring and absorbing it.

“Surpassing the poison of the Dragon King and the Eagle King, I look forward to the emergence of this poison.” Lu Yu’s mouth was oozing black blood, yet he was smiling with excitement.

Time was passing day by day, as Lu Yu was not only consuming the poison of the Eagle King but also integrating the wings of the Eagle King.

Each day that passed, one wound lessened on Lu Yu’s body, and the half-black, half-red blood began to turn more red.

On the seventh day, Lu Yu’s wounds had completely healed, though the blood within his body had not yet fully turned red.

On the fifteenth day—

Boom!

In the empty space behind Lu Yu, a giant venomous dragon’s phantom appeared in the void.

“Roar!”

The venomous dragon’s phantom raised its head and let out a long roar towards the sky, its voice shaking the heavens.

This was no ordinary venomous dragon illusion; they could distinctly sense terrifying waves of royal majesty within the dragon’s roar.

Everyone in Fanggang City was greatly surprised and turned their eyes toward that phantom figure.

The phantom shadow stretched nearly ten thousand zhang long, its regal aura shaking the heavens like a storm.

Some flew up to look at the core area, and everyone was amazed.

Lu Yu was entwined by a venomous dragon several zhang long. On this slender dragon, people surprisingly felt the aura of a king.

“Lu, Lu Yucheng became king?” someone exclaimed in astonishment.

“Heavens, this can’t be real! The Venomous Dragon Phantom has the aura of a king. Could this be Lu Yu’s ultimate kingship ability? Has Lu Yu truly become a king through poison?”

Countless people changed their expressions.

One’s skill to become a king must be his strongest ability.

If Lu Yu becomes the king by using poison, his poison will surpass all other skills, not just being more powerful than the other abilities within him.

Many people know that Lu Yu possesses the royal skills of others.

The skills of Snow Princess and Sky-splitting King were all on him.

These two kings were extraordinary, especially the Snow Queen’s ascension skill, which was incredibly powerful, causing many kings to feel alarmed at the mere thought of it.

If Lu Yu truly becomes a king, it doesn’t necessarily mean his kingship skills are more terrifying than those of the Snow Region King.

They felt uneasy and, in the brief moment of distraction, sensed the void around Fang Gang quivering violently.

A pair of eagle wings, each over ten feet long, appeared behind Lu Yu, exuding an awe-inspiring royal majesty.

Vroom!

As Lu Yu’s thought stirred, the eagle’s wings gently flapped, carrying him upward in a streak of light that pierced the sky.

Lu Yu’s speed was as swift as light, leaving no afterimage, no glow. Behind him, the eagle wings merely left two streaks of starlight that flashed across the sky and vanished in an instant.

Many people saw the Core Domain the moment the eagle’s wings appeared.

But as the eagle’s wings trembled, besides sensing the fluctuation of the star artifact’s power, Lu Yu had already appeared in the sky a thousand meters above.

And at this moment, people also noticed that two new rivers of stars had appeared between Fang Gangcheng and the sky where Lu Yu stood.

“What speed is this? How can it be so fast!” someone exclaimed in amazement.

“I can’t even see Lu Yu moving at all—could this be the ability of the eagle wings on his back?”

“Another King’s Blood Star Artifact,” someone muttered enviously, clenching their teeth.

In the city of Fanggang, warriors with bloodshot eyes gazed at Lu Yu in the sky, each of them revealing greedy glimmers in their eyes.

Lu Yu stood in the void, looking down at the land beneath his feet like a king surveying his kingdom.
