Chapter 936: Subduing

The situation developed beyond Lu Yu’s imagination.

He originally intended to eliminate the threat to Fanggang. After all, those magic beasts were near Fanggang City.

He did not want to leave the city of Shenlingxing vulnerable to further threats.

Yet he never expected that the one he had trapped was actually a living being—a creature specifically bound to the weapon of the Murderous Star Soul.

Lu Yu could tell that the魔狼 was very reluctant to say this, but also did not want to die.

The demon wolf looked at Lu Yu.

Fourteen other wild beasts were also watching Lu Yu.

Their eyes were filled with venomous hatred and an eerie, bone-chilling aura of murder.

They had waited for too long; they refused to die just to one day break free from control and seek revenge on humanity.

I finally got to see the altar opened after so much anticipation, but who would have thought I’d end up trapped here.

Unwilling, unwilling!

“One day, humanity, you will regret this,” the demon wolf gritted its teeth. If only it could unleash its full power, it would tear Lu Yu apart.

It was roaring, also venting its inner anger.

Lu Yu said coldly, “There’s a lot of regret going around these days. If I can’t obtain the Blood Tower, I’m afraid I’ll regret it even more in the future. Speak then—this way, you can preserve your lives and wait for another day to destroy humanity. But that has nothing to do with me; I merely want to use this weapon.”

The Demon Wolf stared at Lu Yu with glowing green eyes and said, “Summon your one hundred thousand skeletal warriors—they are your soldiers. The Soul Devouring Overlord is a madman, a bloodthirsty killer. He even transformed his own one hundred thousand loyal soldiers into part of the Blood Tower. Sooner or later, you will become just like him—a raging monster who destroys everything! Haha, when that day comes, I will watch you kill everything and everyone.”

The demon wolf laughed wildly, extremely crazily.

Lu Yu said, “That’s my business, and it has nothing to do with you!”

Lu Yu’s aura of slaughter roared, stirring the ten thousand white bones hidden throughout the city to rise.

At this moment, countless warriors in the city who witnessed this scene couldn’t help but stare in astonishment.

The white-boned warriors who had always stood outside the First Domain were as motionless as statues, never moving an inch unless summoned.

And now, the ten thousand white skeletons stirred, moving as if to greet a great battle, heading toward the underground caves near the Blood Pagoda.

Since Lu Yu designated the place as a forbidden area, no one has entered it again.

Everyone knows where the White Bone Warrior comes from, and the Blood Tower is the weapon of the God of Slaughter.

The skeletal warriors are heading there, which means Lu Yu needs them to go there, which means Lu Yu is about to activate the Blood Tower!

“This is a situation where even the Blood Tower, along with one hundred thousand soldiers, must be deployed.”

“Lu Yu is preparing for a major battle.”

Many people had a premonition, watching the white bones step into the underground cave.

Hundreds of thousands of warriors with white bones gradually approached the altar, forming circles around it.

The weapons in their hands gleamed coldly, like sharp fangs.

“Now what?” Lu Yu asked, looking at the magic wolf again.

A demonic ape said coldly, “They were originally part of the Blood Tower. You just need to place them on top of the Blood Tower.”

The demon ape’s eyes were cold as he gazed upward at the altar, filled with boundless hatred.

Lu Yu immediately issued orders to the hundred thousand white bone warriors, commanding them to move toward the Blood Tower.

However, the ten thousand warriors made of bones did not obey the command. Instead, all ten thousand pairs of eyes emitted beams of blood-red light, piercing through the toxic barrier and locking onto Lu Yu’s body.

“You—”

Lu Yu’s gaze swung around, and he glared fiercely at the fifteen magical beasts, his voice cold and sharp: “You’re deceiving me!”

“Human, defeat your underlings first before talking to me.”

Fifteen magic beasts burst into laughter.

Boom.

The ten thousand warriors of white bones all sprang into action, their sharp blades emitting cold glimmers that slashed into the toxic miasma.

Lu Yu saw the white bone warrior attacking him. He turned his gaze to the fifteen soul beasts with a cold voice and said, “You’re deceiving me. You’re looking for death!”

“Deceive you? Would we dare to joke with our lives? You can’t even defeat these skeletal warriors, so on what grounds do you think you can control them?”

“Need to defeat them?” Lu Yu turned around, his eyes gleaming with the same crimson light.

In an instant, the cave was overwhelmed by an aura of slaughter.

Lu Yu pushed his strength to the limit, threw a punch, and a group of skeletal warriors were sent flying.

However, these white bones were abnormally powerful and did not shatter.

Boom!

The power fluctuation on each white bone warrior intensified, yet it still failed to convey the true strength of their power to Lu Yu.

One by one, warriors’ white bone armor appeared, transforming them into heavily armored soldiers who charged toward Lu Yu with heavy, thunderous steps.

“Boom!”

The murderous aura around Lu Yu condensed into a sharp blade, clashing with a heavily armored warrior.

The blade in Lu Yu’s hand was incredibly sharp. With a single sword strike, it pierced through the white bone armor and cut into the opponent’s bones.

But just at this moment, the power of this white bone warrior surged again, and the same strike landed on Lu Yu’s body.

Both sides took several steps back before finally coming to a stop.

“Equal strength?” Lu Yu was slightly taken aback. Glancing at several other powerful skeletal warriors approaching in the sky, he swung his sword and slashed forward.

However, this time, Lu Yu was shaken back dozens of steps, sensing that the power of these bone warriors had increased.

“Need suppression?” Lu Yu muttered to himself, then immediately unleashed the Devil’s Wrath.

The moment the blue flame appeared on Lu Yu’s body, all one hundred thousand skeletal warriors became frenzied.

The光芒 of one hundred thousand sharp blades converged in an instant, as if another inheritor of the slaughter had descended. The sharp light slashed straight onto Lu Yu’s crown, releasing a mighty force in that fleeting moment.

Lu Yu was struck so hard that he flew up into the air and crashed into a pile of rubble.

A gash split his forehead open, cutting straight to the bone.

“Is this the power of the Bone Warrior?” Lu Yu flipped himself up, barely able to believe his own eyes.

The previous strike was something even the golden-armored beings on the Divine Star couldn’t achieve.

This strike was more powerful than his strength, completely exceeding the force that should have been used for testing or suppression.

This strike was clearly intended to kill.

Lu Yu had just turned over and started to get up when, above him, one skeletal warrior after another came crashing down.

Lu Yu sidestepped to avoid the attack, but his back was struck by another skeletal warrior.

The violent impact, like a king’s ultimate strike at his peak, sent Lu Yu flying once again.

Lu Yu had just gotten up when several skeletal warriors appeared like ghosts behind him. Their blades slashed at Lu Yu, striking his back so fiercely that sparks flew.

Buzz.

Ahead of Lu Yu, hundreds of thousands of sword lights converged, heavily striking his body and leaving another deep gash across his chest.

“You liars! You actually deceived me,” Lu Yu glared with bloodshot eyes at the fifteen monstrous beasts, his voice cold. “You want to use the Bone Warriors to kill me, so you can escape from here!”

A demonic ape sneered coldly, “Human, since you don’t have the ability to defeat your subordinates, why do you expect them to help you?”

“Victory?” Lu Yu snorted coldly. Suddenly, his expression froze as a surge of bloody light erupted from his crimson eyes, expanding into a beam dozens of feet long that swept through the air.

Victory requires not only strength, but also the suppression of breath and other aspects.

Although the demon ape’s words were unclear, they gave Lu Yu a sense of direction.

The killing aura around Lu Yu surged to its peak as he roared at the hundred thousand skeletal warriors, “Kneel!”

Boom!

Sound waves spread along with the aura of slaughter.

Ten thousand warriors made of white bones trembled slightly as they were swept by the sound waves, causing a brief moment of hesitation.

The powerful aura emanating from them had somewhat diminished.

However, the attack did not end. Each skeletal warrior continued to assault Lu Yu!

Fifteen magical beasts suddenly changed their gaze, looking at Lu Yu with eyes full of killing intent.

When Lu Yu shouted the words “kneel down,” a pressure close to that of a Soul Master emanated from his body.

The person who once enslaved them, so tyrannical and ruthless, seemed to descend upon them once again.

Boom!

The fighting spirit and murderous intent from Lu Yu, along with the bloody aura from countless enemies he had slain, erupted together.

A storm-like aura surged out from Lu Yu’s body, sweeping violently in all directions.

Boom! Rocks on the ground were swept up, swirling together with the storm and scattering in all directions.

This aura was cold, ruthless, and filled with endless bloodlust, brimming with an unyielding will to battle—one that seemed to challenge all enemies under heaven, as if it sought to dominate everything in existence with sheer force.

The ten thousand warriors clad in bones suddenly came to a halt. The aura of slaughter and battle intent surrounding them vanished, and one by one, they stood completely motionless amidst the storm.

Fifteen magical beasts momentarily lost their composure, staring at Lu Yu and roaring, “Slaughter Soul Lord, we will kill you!”

Fifteen monstrous beasts, their fury suppressed for countless millennia, released their rage once more and charged toward the toxic barrier.

Bang!

They collided with the toxic barrier, bounced back, and then regained consciousness.

At that moment, they indeed mistook him for the Soul Master himself. The aura emanating from Lu Yu was far too similar to that of the Soul Master—both exuding an overbearing and savage dominance that trampled everything beneath them.

Lu Yu’s mind stirred again.

Ten thousand warriors of white bones leaped up one after another. They advanced toward the altar, forming into squads, and turned their swords upside down, planting them into the ground.

This formation was still quite a distance away from the altar, yet it completely surrounded it.

It was also right around the Blood Tower.

“Massacre!”

The mighty sound of magic resounded once more, as a crimson light surged from the skeletal warrior straight up to the tower’s summit.

The Blood Tower suddenly sprang into motion. It trembled and roared, shaking the earth as it slowly descended toward the altar.

“Human, remember this day, for one day you will regret it!” Fifteen monstrous beasts howled in anguish as they watched the Blood Tower descend, its base drawing ever closer to the altar where they stood.

The base of the Blood Tower generated a powerful suction force, drawing the fifteen monstrous beasts toward it.

Their bodies approached the blood tower, enveloped in blood light, and were then swallowed into the blood tower.

The toxic barrier shattered on its own, and countless beast shadows emerged within the altar.

Starting from the Level 1 Demon Ape, various different magical beasts were drawn out from the altar and then vanished into the Blood Tower.

On top of the Blood Pagoda, one beast pattern after another emerged. These beast patterns overlaid layer upon layer, while the Blood Pagoda itself grew larger in size.

The original Blood Tower was cone-shaped, very slender and sharp, with a height of up to one thousand meters, and its base occupied an area of only about one thousand square meters.

And now it is becoming huge, and no longer conical in shape.

Beast patterns emerged layer by layer, continuously increasing and causing the tower body to expand.

In Lu Yu’s eyes, this was no longer just a blood tower; it was transforming into a palace towering a thousand meters high, its massive volume capable of accommodating hundreds of thousands of people.

The Blood Pagoda burst through the ground, sending countless fragments of stone crashing down and allowing rays of light from the sky to penetrate the underground cavern.

The unusual activity underground had startled both the people inside and outside the city.

The massive Blood Tower rose toweringly from the ground, and people on the surface could witness its transformation. They saw the tower continuously expanding, with countless beast patterns densely covering its surface.

The beasts transformed into beams and pillars, into foundation stones, into stone carvings, into everything that a palace should have, enclosing the Blood Tower within.
