The blood-colored desert is filled with swirling yellow sands—
Lu Yu was that shadow, and that shadow seemed to be Lu Yu himself.
Figures moved, and Lu Yu moved as well.
It seemed as if a spiritual connection had been established between the figure and Lu Yu, synchronizing everything between the person and the shadow!
It was as if Lu Yu were the one fighting this battle.
An endless herd of beasts, a mighty cavalry of iron-clad riders.
The world around Lu Yu was submerged in a sea of human figures and beastly forms.
Lu Yu sensed the killing intent and fighting spirit emanating from that shadowy figure.
He was trying to reach out to the figure.
This might be the last will left by the Soul Lord on this land.
He did not control his own body, allowing it to move according to the will of the shadowy figures.
Perhaps it was because of the Soul of Annihilation, there were no obstacles in between!
Boom!
He threw a punch, and a murderous intent surged from within his body, traveling down his arm and exploding from his fist.
“Nine-star soul! It’s actually just a nine-star soul!” Lu Yu was genuinely terrified.
How could that be possible, or rather, how could that be believed?
The supreme aura is completely different from the aura of a ninth-level star soul.
Lu Yu could clearly feel that the figure’s strength was indeed only at the ninth level.
Is this the Soul Master?
The power of a ninth-rank Star Soul can instantly kill warriors who possess King-level strength.
“This is the Soul Master! They have completely merged with their Star Soul; they are the origin of the Star Soul itself. So this is how power can be used!”
Lu Yu murmured to himself.
A sharp sword blade, stretching a thousand zhang in length, shot forth from his fist, piercing through all the enemies lying in a straight line within a thousand zhang ahead of him in a single punch.
“Roar!”
In the sky, tens of thousands of beast roars erupted, and countless beast shadows descended from the heavens, threatening to crush Lu Yu into the desert sands.
Each beast here possesses a unique power, resembling both a divine servant and another form of force.
None of them is a king, yet their power surpasses that of kings.
This is merely the final will of the departed souls lingering in this desert.
Even his will alone is this powerful!
What if the original body were still here?
Lu Yu’s heart pounded wildly.
But he did not control his body to follow the shadow of the person with his own will!
Lu Yu raised his head and let out a long roar toward the sky, while a murderous aura surged violently from within his body.
His breath transformed into无形 sword blades that sliced through the void, reducing tens of thousands of beasts to dust within a storm of cutting edges.
Lu Yu’s heart raced, and he was greatly surprised.
He could sense the change in the aura of murder within his body.
But in that instant, the power unleashed during the process—from the convergence and compression of breath to its explosive release—was absolutely terrifying.
It was as if a hurricane had swept through the city.
Although this is a manifestation of power, it is not real.
Lu Yu was well aware that all of these had actually occurred.
Perhaps this was the former Soul Master; all his battles here have been recorded.
Right now, I’m merely experiencing everything that has happened before.
Lu Yu failed to fully memorize the process of transforming the killing intent from that moment into无形 sword blades.
However, having such an experience is enough as long as the process exists.
The remaining parts will eventually be fully understood as long as you take the time to comprehend them gradually.
However, Lu Yu is truly frightened now.
The effect of the Killing Star Soul truly frightened him.
Previously, he had never imagined that a genuine Soul of Slaughter could be so immensely powerful.
The impact of tens of thousands of cavalry charging from the front.
All the blades of carnage within Lu Yu surged forth, coalescing in front of him into a luminous wall towering over a thousand zhang high and stretching thousands of zhang wide.
The charging cavalry’s impact is astonishingly powerful.
But when they all collided with the light wall.
Boom, boom, boom…
That sound, like a real impact, echoed through the desert sky.
One by one, the iron cavalry cracked from within, and bursts of cold light erupted from their bodies in waves.
Amidst the clouds, a remarkably powerful presence descended. His entire body radiated golden light, as if he were about to shatter the heavens with his mere human form, or like a falling star exuding boundless pressure.
Although it was merely an illusory figure, the pressure emanating from it was so immense that it left him feeling utterly powerless.
This might be a powerful figure at the level of a Divine Star General.
Lu Yu thought like this.
The descending motion of the illusory figure still carried its own force—powerful and extremely fast.
Lu Yu raised his head, and the figure within him, sensing the illusory shadow in the sky, suddenly lifted both arms. The cold light of the blades of slaughter gathered atop his arms, forming shield-like barriers in the air.
Bang!
The illusory figure crushed one round shield after another beneath its feet. After shattering the tenth layer of shield-like barrier, its downward momentum was finally halted.
Meanwhile, there were still at least a hundred layers of circular shield barriers remaining unbroken in midair.
At this moment, layers of round shield barriers transformed into swords, piercing towards the phantom from all directions.
The illusory figure was indeed powerful, its twin fists transforming into shadows that shattered all the sword illusions.
But the human figure was even more terrifying; it had already rushed to the phantom’s side the moment the phantom shattered all the icy glimmers.
The phantom releases its skill.
But when these skills turned into a sky full of radiant light, they were instantly slashed apart by a shadowy figure.
At the same time, a human figure, like a wild beast, split the illusory shadow from the crown of the head.
“Who knew the aura of slaughter could be used in such a way!”
Lu Yu was surprised again.
He has always attacked solely by shaping his murderous aura into blades.
But now—
The figure demonstrated to Lu Yu an entirely new style of combat, unlike anything he had seen before!
Lu Yu experienced a series of attack methods that were completely different from those he had encountered before.
These methods are unique yet entirely embody the application of Soul of Slaughter’s power.
“Without any skills, the application of soul power from the Killing Star Soul is still so powerful.”
Lu Yu murmured to himself, also carefully contemplating and feeling the essence of it.
This is a touch that cannot be expressed in words.
Lu Yu couldn’t fully grasp so many variations. However, he had already encountered one, and it was an application similar to his own Star Soul.
That’s enough.
The time ahead will be sufficient, as long as there is a genuine understanding and integration.
The battle seemed endless.
Lu Yu’s fusion with the shadow figure was becoming increasingly profound.
He could feel the anger, sadness, and murderous intent that the shadowy figure had once possessed.
“What could have possibly happened here to drive someone to challenge the Soul Master?”
“Was there already a divine servant back then? That illusory figure’s aura resembled that of a general; how could that be?”
…
The battle seemed to have the meaning of stopping.
One day and one night, and then another day and night.
Figures evolved amidst endless slaughter, growing stronger.
However, within the human figure’s body, it was as if some kind of seal continuously suppressed the breakthrough of the figure’s power.
However, the murderous intent within the human figure continued to surge, like a flood breaching its embankment, rising to the extreme limit.
Boom!
Something within him shattered, and his shadowy figure’s power surged continuously.
“King without a crown!”
Lu Yu was once again astonished, fully experiencing a certain more familiar power after this breakthrough.
“This is the origin of the uncrowned king, born from the breakthrough of the murderous star soul!”
Lu Yu found himself in possession of another earth-shattering secret.
The origin of the “uncrowned king” might just come from here!
Vibrate!
The sky split open with a crack, and from the heavens poured countless iron-clad horsemen and innumerable figures descending rapidly.
One hundred million, one billion, or ten billion?
All around were people, all of them blood-colored shadows.
The power of the human figure seemed to have accumulated countless millennia of anger and battle intent, which broke through in an instant.
His power kept increasing rapidly.
The ninth-grade Star Soul directly became the Supreme Being; in an instant, the power of one Sovereign transformed into a million Sovereigns, and in the blink of an eye, it multiplied into a billion Sovereigns.
Five billion, ten billion…
This was a kind of improvement that left Lu Yu utterly speechless.
Lu Yu thought his promotion was fast enough.
But the figure before him was practically soaring, its power rising ceaselessly and boundlessly.
The figure’s power finally stopped increasing after it had reached the strength of billions of beings.
The figure in the shadows grew even more terrifying.
With a casual strike, he could level vast areas.
No enemy could withstand him in battle; wherever he went, only shattered foes remained.
Blood was shimmering before Lu Yu’s eyes, as if he were witnessing the transformation of this land.
Ceaseless War—
Everyone before the human figure lay down.
Lu Yu seemed to see blood staining the desert red, with mountains of corpses surrounding him.
A tidal wave of emotions surged within Lu Yu’s heart.
He was deeply shaken.
The battle lasted for five days and five nights. When no one was left fighting in this desert, only a single figure remained standing here.
Suddenly—
One of the figure’s arms exploded, and then the figure fell backward, as if spitting out a mouthful of blood.
All the images disappear here.
“He’s injured!”
Lu Yu was startled when he saw the entire image disappear.
“Clearly, he hasn’t even been injured, and the battle is already over. What else could have happened here!”
Lu Yu continued forward through the desert, and nothing unusual occurred anymore.
Lu Yu sat down in the desert.
Although the unusual surroundings had disappeared, this place had once been a battlefield, leaving him still with a sense of being right there in the midst of it.
Perhaps the soul energy within the Demon Convergence Hall shares the same origin as his.
But that is only power, which one can acquire on their own.
But the experience he is gaining now is invaluable. If he can discover the reason behind a Soul Master’s ability to slay a King-level warrior with a ninth-grade Star Soul, his strength will improve even more significantly than it has now.
He needs time to reorganize everything he has gained.
The figure had been using the Soul of Slaughter for combat all along.
Lu Yu never thought that the ability of the Murder Star Soul could have so many variations in battle.
Offensive and defensive capabilities, transforming armor into a sword—all is controlled by a mere thought.
Its power can be compared to that of a king, with infinite variations and transformations.
Lu Yu sat in the desert for two days and two nights before finally standing up again, then headed towards the edge of the desert.
The Supreme Spirit stood on a mountain at the edge of the desert, watching Lu Yu emerge from the blood mist, and smiled, saying, “Have you obtained it?”
“Thank you!”
Lu Yu looked at Mingzun and bowed deeply with great solemnity.
This was his sincere respect.
No matter what the冥尊 was hiding, the冥尊 was still helping him!
“Alright, let’s go,” said Mingzun. “Based on their speed, I believe those divine servants should have already reached the Seventh Realm. Before they arrive at the Ninth Realm, if we set traps within the realm, we should be able to severely injure that general!”
“You want to keep all of them!” Lu Yu was greatly surprised.
That general was too powerful.
His mere breath would be enough to kill an ordinary king.
Does the Sovereign of the Underworld want to ambush him?
