Chapter 932: The Special Armor

Feng Xiaobao, seeing the Sword King rushing toward him, immediately cried out and recoiled like a frightened rabbit.

The void behind him had already split open, allowing Feng Xiaobao’s body to directly enter the void. This happened so quickly that even Lu Yu frowned.

Some people had not yet seen him when they noticed that Feng Xiaobao had already disappeared.

The Star Soul, which boasts that no one can stop it from escaping, truly lives up to its reputation; this is definitely not just an idle claim.

The Demon-Slaying Elder said, “So it’s truly the Void Star Soul!”

“Come back.” The Sword King reached into the void and pulled Feng Xiaobao out from within a web of fractures.

This move of the Sword King left Lu Yu in a daze.

Even capable of capturing a Void Star Soul—just who is this person?

“No way, absolutely no way!” Feng Xiao Bao kicked his legs wildly and stared with wide eyes, saying: “I am the Void Star Soul. There’s no way anyone could catch me.”

The King of Swords said, “That’s because I have this ability, so I can capture you. You don’t need to escape—I have no interest in your Void Soul. That item can only be used by the Void Star Soul; no one else can use it. I’m just curious—every generation of Void Star Soul has never been weak. I’ve never seen someone as timid as you before.”

Feng Xiaobao shouted, “Mr. Lu, you have to honor your word. I’ll take my things and leave right away; I don’t want to stay here for another minute.”

Feng Xiaobao fled from the Snake People’s Holy Land and once again reverted to his timid, cowardly self, his eyes darting around outside.

Yuki and the others couldn’t help but secretly laugh.

So this is the Void Star Soul?

The Void Star Soul, which even managed to capture a Void Soul, can be said to be unattainable by anyone.

They were seeing for the first time the nine mutated star souls who still feared death despite possessing such power.

The Sword King sighed and waved his hand, saying, “Forget it, I won’t ask you anymore. Whether you’re cowardly or brave, surviving is what truly matters in the end.”

Lu Yu said, “Don’t worry. I, Lu Yu, still have enough integrity that I wouldn’t stoop to stealing from you. Come in—once we’ve divided up the items, you can leave whenever you want.”

The Demon-Slaying Elder chuckled and said, “What’s going on? Have the two mutated star souls obtained some treasure together?”

Lu Yu said, “I’m not sure yet if they’re treasures, but they’re definitely valuable items. Because of them, I nearly got surrounded and killed by the snake people.”

Lu Yu recounted everything he had seen in the Snake Clan’s Holy Land. This time, everyone in the shop was utterly astonished.

The Sword King said coldly, “I always believed that the continuous wars of those years had long driven the humanoid race out of the Tianmo Domain. I never expected that they would still be inside.”

Everyone couldn’t help but feel a heavy burden in their hearts.

How terrifying must be the power that the humanoid race has secretly accumulated over all these years of waiting in the shadows?

Especially the Nine Serpent Demons, by continuously devouring the soul energy accumulated from the Nine Mutated Star Souls, have actually caused the Star Souls themselves to mutate.

Approaching the Nine Mutated Star Souls!

The Spirit King’s expression turned solemn as he said, “However, the essence of a true mutated star soul cannot be imitated. As long as these serpent demons are unable to devour the Nine Great Star Souls, they will remain mere imitations forever.”

“These events must be documented. If we fail, those who come after must know exactly what kind of enemy they are facing.”

Since the death of the Soul Master, the humanoid clan has become the strongest enemy of humanity.

Although they have been driven away by humans before, the humanoid race continues to develop and their strength can no longer be underestimated!

Everyone discussed it and finally set aside the matter of the Snake People’s Holy Land.

The Demon-Slaying Elder looked at Lu Yu and said, “In other words, what you’ve seized is the collection of top treasures accumulated by the Snake Clan over many years within the Grand Demon Hall? If you could let this old man take a look, bring them out now. I’d also like to see what wonderful items you’ve obtained.”

“I can’t say for sure if they’re top-notch. But judging from their expressions after they were snatched, they must be pretty good.”

Lu Yu smiled and with a wave of his hand, he took out more than twenty boxes from his storage space all at once.

Buzz!

Various energy waves immediately filled the shop.

Even Sword King and the others were deeply moved, each of them wearing a solemn expression, truly stunned by what they witnessed.

They could sense the aura emanating from the box without even opening it.

Everything placed inside each box was undoubtedly a top-grade item. However, the mixed aromas made it somewhat difficult for them to determine exactly which item was the best.

However, if this one box were to appear outside, it wouldn’t cause any less commotion than the One Ring.

The Rebirth King swallowed hard and said, “These humanoid tribes have been accumulating for so many years, and with just over twenty boxes, there are already so many top-grade items. What could possibly be inside hundreds of boxes?”

Everyone, including Wang Jian, couldn’t help but think of the treasures in the Snake People’s Holy Land, so many treasures collected by them.

How powerful would it be if used to arm an entire legion!

At this moment, Feng Xiaobao also brought out his three trunks.

Feng Xiaobao was very reluctant.

Whatever he gets his hands on, he doesn’t want to let go.

However, Lu Yu took out all twenty-two boxes; could he really be unwilling to part with just three?

Feng Xiaobao said, “Mr. Lu, I won’t deceive you. The reason I chose these three chests was precisely for the Void Soul. At that time, I was very close to these three chests, and I sensed something inside that resonated with my Star Soul, so I selected them. Therefore, this could be considered me claiming an item in advance. Let’s consider this as compensation for one of the chests.”

Feng Xiaobao was in great pain.

However, his idol is Lu Yu.

Lu Yu values integrity and keeping his promises, so he cannot act like a petty person.

Lu Yu said, “Things were meant to be divided anyway. The Void Soul is your weapon, useless to us, so you don’t need to worry about it. These items should be split evenly as we agreed earlier. However, their values are probably impossible to divide fairly. Therefore, I suggest we leave it to luck. There are twenty-five boxes altogether. Each of us takes twelve boxes, and there’s no need to pick and choose.”

Lu Yu said, pushing twelve of the boxes to one side, “Let the coin decide which side of the boxes we take. No matter which side comes up, we choose the right side. And for the last remaining box, how about we split its contents evenly?”

His way of dividing it was very fair.

Whoever gets what depends entirely on luck.

Feng Xiaobao did not object.

Because he could also feel that such a division was very fair, he couldn’t think of any reason to oppose it.

Feng Xiaobao said, “Mr. Lu, I only need twelve chests. I secretly took the items from one chest—it’s as if I exchanged my empty soul for a chest, so you don’t have to split the last one. Moreover, this time it was mainly your effort, while I ran away in the end, leaving all the enemies for you to handle. Consider this chest as your hard-earned reward.”

Lu Yu thought for a moment and nodded. “Alright. Since that’s the case, I’ll take the last box. Do you want heads or words?”

Feng Xiaobao said, “Character!”

The coin landed with the character side facing down.

In other words, Lu Yu chose the head, and obtained the twelve boxes on the right side.

Lu Yu said, “Alright. The twelve boxes on the right are yours; you can take them and leave anytime.”

Feng Xiaobao did not close the suitcase. Instead, he looked at Lu Yu earnestly and said, “Mr. Lu, I’d like to make a deal with you. I’ll offer these twelve boxes in exchange for seventy-seven quotas at the Fanggang facility. We want a section within the Second Domain and access rights to the First Domain. If the First Domain becomes compromised, I require that all seventy-seven quotas be transferred to the Core Domain.”

“Quota for seventy-seven people to enter the Fanggang port?” Lu Yu slightly frowned and asked, “Do you mean they’re requesting full access permissions for entering and exiting Fanggang?”

Feng Xiaobao said, “Yes. I know you won’t allow strangers into the core area. I only request that among these seventy-seven spots—or rather, seventy-six spots—after the destruction of the first area, they can enter the core area. I can choose not to go, but my companion must be allowed in.”

Lu Yu was surprised and asked, “Why?”

“This is our secret!” Feng Xiaobao said with a grin. “If Mr. Lu agrees, I’ll go get my friends right away. And all these boxes will be yours—I won’t take a single item.”

Lu Yu thought for a moment and said, “Alright. If the first domain is breached, it’s likely that Fanggang is facing a real major enemy. At that point, I won’t have to worry about unknown people sabotaging the core domain anymore. Unless, of course, none of you want to live.”

When Feng Xiaobao saw that Lu Yu had agreed, he cheered and said, “Don’t worry, it’s precisely because we want to survive that we’ve come to Fanggang.”

“I agree to this request. You want a region in the second domain, so let it be the tenth region; it is temporarily empty.”

“I’ll go inform my teammates right away. Thank you, Mr. Lu.”

Feng Xiaobao jumped up and rushed out of the shop.

Twenty-five boxes were placed before Yukki, Mingzun, and the others.

The box that was originally supposed to be split evenly now belongs entirely to Lu Yu.

Everyone focused their attention on the box.

“I think there’s something in this box that I’ll need to use,” said the demon-slaying elder, smiling as he looked toward a box.

Lu Yu did not attempt to stop the Demon-Slaying Elder.

The elderly man had already opened the box with one hand.

Buzz!

Suddenly, the house began to shake.

The glow emanating from various props inside the box seemed to surge forth like energy that had been stored for a long time, with countless beams of light flowing like water.

Huowu, Xiaoxiao, and Xueji were all captivated by the sight.

This was simply like the legendary paradise, so dreamlike that it seemed unreal.

Then everyone’s gaze turned toward the box.

No one’s gaze could remain calm, not even Lu Yu’s smile was frozen.

He was well aware that the items here were priceless.

However, when the box was actually opened, even he was unprepared for the astonishing value and incredible nature of its contents.

Inside the chest was a suit of armor, ten long swords, and ten boxes each containing ten orbs of molten metal.

Most astonishing of all was that each piece of armor was inlaid with mutated Star Spirit Beads.

Just by looking at the quality of the mutated Star Spirit Beads, one could tell that each and every one of them was of king-level caliber.

A helmet of an armor is inlaid with one piece, the breastplate has three pieces, and each limb has two pieces.

Twelve mutated Stellar Soul Beads, each absolutely possessing King-level skills, are inlaid into a single piece of armor.

Then, on the hilts of the ten long swords, each had a mutated Star Spirit Pearl inlaid on it, undoubtedly a King-level skill.

In other words, this single chest not only contains armor and weapons, but also ten orbs of metallic liquid. Just the more than twenty mutated Spirit Stars of king-level skills are already worth a fortune.

“What kind of armor is this?” the Reincarnation King examined the armor carefully; there was no starlight on it, nor did it emit any star-creature’s aura.

However, this armor emitted a glow that was in no way inferior to that of a star-grade armor.

Everyone was stunned.

For a moment, no one could recognize the origin of this armor.
