The spot where Lu Yu and King Jifeng stood was the only place not touched by the wave of blood.
But this is exactly the source, where the crimson waves begin and spread outward in all directions from this small island.
Perhaps this is the safest place in the world, and the last place to be affected.
In the sky, someone roared furiously, “Lu Yu, I will surely tear you to pieces.”
A human figure surged through the crimson waves, his body battered and bleeding from multiple wounds.
The Three-Eyed King rushed in, and no one knew how much it had cost him.
As soon as he appeared above Lu Yu and Storm King, his vertical eye had already shot out hundreds of zhangs of radiant light, pressing down toward the island.
Boom!
Lu Yu also spared no courtesy and slashed out a sword.
Sword light rained down, heading towards the beam shot by the Three-Eyed King.
Light collides with light in the air, transforming into a dazzling sea of light, and forming shockwaves as sharp as blades that sweep across the blood-red ocean.
Layer upon layer of blood waves were slashed open, wave after wave cut apart, and within them, the Blood-Weeping Beasts exploded into showers of blood that rained down into the Sea of Blood.
“Auww.”
In the sea of blood, even more waves of blood surged forth. Although over one hundred thousand Blood-weeping Beasts had perished, now more than ten million of them had been reborn.
King Gust was stunned.
Because in that moment, he saw a battlefield that did not belong to him.
Lu Yu blocked the Three-Eyed King’s kingship skill with a single strike of the Star Artifact.
Beams of light pierced through the rain, and the shattered rays also transformed into a shower of light, descending towards the earth.
Boom!
Lu Yu and the Three-Eyed King were almost hit at the same time.
The Three-Eyed King’s body was struck in multiple places, causing deep gashes where flesh was torn open, with wounds so severe that bone was visible.
Meanwhile, a burst of starlight erupted from Lu Yu’s Starlight Armor, and numerous tiny cracks began to appear on its surface.
After delivering this blow, the Three-Eyed King also calmed down slightly.
He stared at Lu Yu, his hands constantly clenching into fists, then spreading open, then clenching into fists again…
The Three-Eyed King’s voice rumbled: “Lu Yu, you can’t escape either. You don’t need me to kill you; you won’t leave this underground world alive.”
“That’s not necessarily true,” Lu Yu replied with a smile. “You have so many powerful kings at your disposal; surely you must have a way to accomplish the mission. Your Majesty Three-Eyed King, aren’t you supposed to be defending your city instead of wasting time here chatting with me?”
Upon hearing this, the Three-Eyed King immediately realized that Lu Yu had already known everything.
He clenched his steel teeth, his serrated fangs turning blood-red, and stared fiercely at Lu Yu, saying, “Lu Yu, do you also want to die here?”
“I’m not necessarily going to die here. At the very least, this place is safe for now.” Lu Yu laughed and said, “Lord Three-Eyed King, are you trying to tell me that you want to cooperate with me to complete the mission?”
The King of Three Eyes indeed had that intention.
Lu Yu, as an enemy, is indeed a headache.
However, as a temporary ally, he is indeed quite good.
However, Lu Yu was the first to speak, piercing through all the thoughts in the Three-Eyed King’s mind.
King Three-Eyed really couldn’t speak now.
Seeing this, King Jifeng said from the side, “Lu Yu, to stop this destruction, you must kill the Bone Emperor. After killing the Bone Emperor, use the stone egg to reseal him back onto this island.”
Lu Yu said, “Does that mean, as I originally saw when I first arrived, that these bones will once again transform this place into an island of bones? Then the stone egg will be placed back in its original position?”
King Gale nodded and said, “Yes, this is the only way!”
“I’m sorry, I’m not interested,” Lu Yu said with a loud laugh. “This is your dungeon matter, and it has nothing to do with me.”
“Then give me the stone egg, and you can leave.” The Three-Eyed King landed beside Lu Yu and extended his hand.
Lu Yu looked at the Three-Eyed King and said, “Why should I give it to you?”
The Three-Eyed King’s eyes flared with anger as he coldly said, “Lu Yu, don’t push your luck. You’ve caused so much trouble for the underworld. The fact that I’m not killing you right now is already showing you plenty of respect.”
Lu Yu said coldly, “So you’re saying you want to kill me? But do you really think you can?”
“I don’t accept it. Then I’ll just fight you until you do accept it.” The Three-eyed King raised his hand.
“Am I afraid of you? Not a chance.” Lu Yu stood his ground, his Starlight Sword radiating brilliant flashes of light, while the Starry River swirled around his Celestial Armor. Behind him, the wings of the Eagle King seemed to open countless eyes, each feather resembling a sharp blade gently quivering in anticipation.
The three great star artifacts simultaneously released a powerful aura; merely this aura was sufficient to pin down ordinary kings, rendering them unable to move.
The Three-Eyed King was even more powerful. At this moment, he emitted a crimson glow, which dispersed the force released from Lu Yu’s star artifact.
The two stood face to face, neither showing any sign of yielding.
“Last question—will you give it to me or not?” the Three-Eyed King roared.
“You’re wasting your time.” Lu Yu was even colder than the Three-Eyed King. With a lightning-fast swing of his starlight sword, he struck!
Boom!
Ten billion beams of light rushed toward the Three-Eyed King.
King Gale quickly stepped back, his eyes filled with immense shock.
Because he really couldn’t imagine that Lu Yu actually had the audacity to strike Wang first—this human was truly arrogant.
“Die!” The Three-Eyed King didn’t expect Lu Yu to strike first.
He was enveloped in a shower of light, and thus, Lu Yu seized the initiative first.
However, Wang remained Wang, his aura surging as he swung both palms repeatedly, shattering waves of radiant light and bursting through them.
The Three-Eyed King launched a fierce attack, swinging both fists in rapid succession toward Lu Yu.
Lu Yu, refusing to back down, activated his Star Armor and threw a punch with all his might.
Bang.
Two forces collided.
Lu Yu staggered backward for hundreds of meters, nearly falling into the sea of blood.
The Three-Eyed King didn’t even flinch, striding forward aggressively toward Lu Yu.
“Haha, King of the Third Eye, goodbye!” Lu Yu suddenly stomped his foot, and in an instant, he shot up into the sky like a rocket.
Bang, bang, bang…
Instantly, thousands of tongue-like spines pointed toward Lu Yu amidst the waves of blood around him, attempting to ensnare and detain him.
Boom.
The starlight on the Star Armor surged violently, instantly rebounding thousands of tongue-like spines that had pierced into his body.
At the same time, the Eagle King’s wing behind him transformed into a thousand-zhang-long wing, carrying Lu Yu and vanishing into the sky.
Amidst the层层 blood waves, countless barbed tongues still shot out, attempting to ensnare Lu Yu and prevent his escape.
However, this time all those barbed remarks missed their mark.
King of the Three Eyes and King of the Swift Wind were both stunned, completely unprepared for Lu Yu’s sudden escape.
The Three-Eyed King regained consciousness and flew into a rage, shouting, “Lu Yu, you come back here right now!”
Lu Yu was too fast; in the blink of an eye, he vanished.
The Three-Eyed King’s trembling was also in vain.
“I’ll go after him,” King Jifeng also jumped up, ready to chase.
In the sea of blood, countless hundreds-of-meters-long tongue-like spears shot toward the King of Gale.
King Gust dodged part of the attack, but was still pierced by another part.
Then, these tongue barbs suddenly retracted along with the flesh of the Storm King, tearing its body into pieces.
Bang!
King Gust’s massive chunks of flesh exploded into a blood rain in the air, then reassembled into a brand new body.
“Damn it.”
The furious roar of King Gust.
If there was even a moment’s delay, Lu Yu would already be gone who knows where, and the possibility of catching up again would be zero.
The King of Storms landed back on the ground and said helplessly, “Lord Three-Eyed King, we’ve lost him. The only thing we can do now is destroy the Beast Emperor first and send people to search for Lu Yu. Moreover, some Blood-Weeping Beasts from the Blood Tide are blocking my path; I can’t break through with my power alone.”
“Let’s go!”
The Three-Eyed King was very unhappy.
But now he couldn’t afford to worry about that anymore.
Lu Yu escaped, and they also had to find a way to defeat the Beast Emperor first.
Because if the Beast Emperor dies, the power of the Blood Wave will be halved, which could buy them some time.
The Three-Eyed King led the way, carving a path through the crimson waves and swiftly taking King Wang away.
…
There are a total of ten cities around the Blood Sea.
When the ten cities saw the hundred-meter-high crimson flood surge appearing on the horizon, alarms blared across each city.
“Oh my God, what’s going on here?”
“How could the Blood Sea Tsunami possibly rise? Someone has taken the stone egg.”
“Damn it, which idiot did this? I’ll tear him apart.”
Ten cities were thrown into chaos.
The hundred-zhang-long city wall was immediately filled with people. Innumerable experts with the strength of Wang Zun and even ten thousand Zun power stood upon the city wall.
One by one, powerful kings also appeared atop the city walls.
A crimson wave surged from the horizon, drawing closer and closer, until it rapidly engulfed the city walls.
Boom!
The city wall roared and began to tremble.
Countless people lost their balance; some fell to the ground in a sitting position.
A king shouted loudly, “Activate the barrier; don’t let the blood wave enter the city.”
The crimson waves crashed against the city walls and then receded like the tide.
Bang, bang, bang…
As the blood-colored waves receded, the blood-crying beast within them had already walked onto the shore.
Their bodies were clumsy, yet each of them extended its tongue-like spear toward the city wall.
The barrier has already been activated. The barbed tongues struck the city wall’s barrier; some of the tongues were shattered, while others caused the barrier to ripple outward in successive waves.
Boom!
The first wave of blood had already receded, and shortly after it retreated, the second wave surged forward.
“Roar!”
More blood-crying beasts emerged outside the city along with the crimson waves.
A loud voice from atop the city wall shouted, “Attack, attack.”
“Everyone, pitch in. No one gets to slack off.”
“The west city wall is facing a king-level blood-weeping beast. Please come over, King.”
The city was in chaos, with people everywhere.
They really wanted to skin and dissect the person who had touched the stone egg.
“Grandma’s, you can’t even die like this.”
“Whoever had their brain kicked by a donkey would go mess with Shi Dan. He wants everyone in the dungeon to die along with him.”
People are rushing back to the city from the countryside.
Some people were engulfed by the crimson waves halfway through their journey.
Rows of blood-soaked beasts swallowed the drowning figures, tearing flesh into fragments.
“Roar!”
The human bones, stripped of flesh, suddenly mutated and extended within the blood-soaked waves, transforming into the form of blood-crying beast bones.
Then, flesh regenerated on these blood-soaked beast bones, transforming them into hordes of blood-crying beasts launching a counterattack on the city.
Some people fled to the barrier and activated the tokens in their hands, which allowed them to enter the barrier.
“Those who come back are not allowed to idle either. Get ready immediately and defend the city.”
A king was commanding the battle from atop the city wall, continuously issuing orders.
Among these people, one individual entered the city and immediately made his way to the city wall.
This person was indeed Lu Yu, who immediately returned to the land after leaving the Sea of Blood.
His goal has now changed.
The Blood-Weeping Stone may not be obtainable, but the blood sac inside the Blood-Weeping Beast’s skull is certainly a valuable treasure.
These cities, under attack by the Qi Xue Beasts, are certain to witness a large number of the creatures’ deaths.
The corpse definitely couldn’t be dealt with in time.
He can collect these corpses and get a large number of blood sacs without spending a penny.
