The divine servant was very wary, looking at the blood city in the sky with a hint of fear.
The blond man clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, saying, “Then can he bring the battlefield to the Divine Star?”
He had been saying for some time that he wanted Lu Yu to issue a challenge, and many people were probably already waiting for him to step forward.
And now, without even stepping up yet, one could already see the disdain in many people’s eyes, and hear the sounds of doubt and mockery.
How could his face possibly look good!
The divine servant said, “That is his battlefield, his weapon; wherever he wishes to go, it can accompany him.”
The blonde man said coldly, “What advantages would I have if I returned to the Divine Star?”
The divine servant continued, “You are the voice of the deity, and wherever you are is your domain. Even if you step onto that battlefield, there is nothing to worry about.”
The blonde man, his face darkening, suddenly looked up at the person above Blood City and said, “Lu Yu, I’ll be waiting for you on the Divine Star. The moment you set foot on the Divine Star, it will be your doom.”
As he spoke, the blond man turned his head, his teeth nearly grinding to pieces.
The ground was silent, and many people couldn’t believe that the blond-haired man had actually retreated.
They had expected a major battle, at least enough to witness some of Blood City’s capabilities.
However, everyone was very disappointed.
The Blood City hangs midair, leaving people only to look up in awe, yet no one dares to ascend it.
Lu Yu stood alone within the vast Blood City, feeling the terrifying power of this metropolis that was entirely built upon slaughter.
After the Blood City was fully formed, Lu Yu stood beneath the crimson palace. In a trance, it felt as if he had experienced countless ages and now once again stood atop this city.
Deep within his soul, part of the information from his Star Soul was released, finally allowing him to understand how to use this palace.
“There’s no time left,” Lu Yu said, gazing at the celestial star under the moonlight before leaping off the Blood City.
Innumerable curious glances fell upon Lu Yu, with many people speculating about the extent of his strength after obtaining his ultimate weapon.
Some people had vaguely heard the conversation between the divine servant and the golden-haired person just now and were filled with anticipation.
“Did you all hear that? The Divine Servant said Lu Yu was invincible on that battlefield. Could that really be possible?”
“You’ve got to be kidding me, claiming to be invincible? Do you really think you’re the strongest? Don’t forget, even now with so many cities and countless Blood-eyed Kings in the underground realms, none of them dare to proclaim themselves invincible.”
“Whether he is truly invincible or not will be revealed once we reach the Divine Star. I’ve heard that each city’s ruler there was once the strongest warrior of their respective era!”
…
People murmured among themselves, glancing up at the crimson city in the sky from time to time.
Before long, everyone started attending to their own tasks.
Lu Yu reinforced his Starlight Armor and Starlight Sword once more, and filled his body with energy.
Meanwhile, Huo Wu and the others were also becoming familiar with their own weapons and equipment, striving to enhance their strength.
Kun devoted all his time to refining star artifacts.
He needed to use the time before the three-month deadline to completely forge this entire set of star artifacts.
As time passed day by day, the powerful figures in every city became increasingly tense.
Even if we can’t find the most powerful person, each city’s king has at least ten subordinates, and any ten of them would be qualified.
God’s servants continued to move from city to city, persuading those who did not wish to die to serve the deity.
Their team is continuously growing, expanding from millions to tens of millions, and the number is still increasing.
One month remained until the final deadline, and a golden light barrier had appeared around the perimeter of every city.
…
“Starting today, the city is under lockdown until further notice.”
“Starting today, all human warriors in the wild must seek refuge in a city. When the final twenty-four hours begin, all humans still outside the city walls will be eradicated by the Dark Descent!”
…
In the sky, a voice from the void was cold and filled with a warning tone.
Someone tried to touch the golden light shield from within the city and discovered that the shield absorbed some of their energy while also preventing them from exiting.
When people from outside the city approached the light shield, they were sucked in.
Boom! Boom!
One by one, cities activated their protective shields, each resembling a fortress ready to face an imminent threat.
All the protective shields of Fanggang, including the Immortal Sky Canopy and the Steel Barrier, have been activated, sealing off the entire city.
Many people believe that entering the light shield means gaining access to the city. Numerous warriors from the wilderness have reached the port city and approached the light shield.
However, they were bounced back, with a warning informing them that the city had restricted access and they were not allowed to enter.
The crowd could only look for other cities from afar.
Half a month before the final twenty-four hours, Huowu’s father, Feng Tianluo, returned.
This was the first meeting between father and daughter in another era.
Fen Tianluo originally wanted to find a way to break through the Wangzun realm and become stronger.
But he failed and came to a standstill.
After a brief reunion, everyone was certain that a fierce storm was about to erupt.
Lu Yu distributed the divine crystals, giving one each to Huo Wu, Fen Tianluo, and many others.
One hundred divine crystals can only be given to one hundred people.
Lu Yu also left all the crystals that could be used to repair the city to Liu Xing, and once he was gone, Liu Xing would take over full control of the city’s defenses.
Everyone in the city is his companion, but he can only choose to give these resources to the strongest individuals to ensure the city can be defended.
The entire planet exuded a suffocating atmosphere to everyone.
Two days before the final twenty-four hours, Kun completed his mission and immediately fell into a coma at the moment of completion.
“I will never create another star artifact, for this set is the most perfect,” Kun said as he closed his eyes.
Ten one-eyed tribal geniuses delivered the Star Artifact to Lu Yu’s hands, and then bowed deeply to him with great solemnity.
They also had a premonition of what was to come and were grateful to Lu Yu for giving them another chance at survival.
Lu Yu held this set of star artifacts in his hand, the main one being a spherical orb. It would fully fuse with Lu Yu’s flesh and blood, making it unusable by others and impossible to be seized.
The sixty long swords are the actual combat weapons of this set of star artifacts.
“The final deadline is here,” Lu Yu murmured to himself, gazing at the sky.
With less than twelve hours remaining before the twenty-fourth hour, the city welcomed its final guest—the Three-Eyed Dragon King!
“Lu Yu, have you decided whether you want to fight or to sleep forever?” the Dragon King asked, looking at Lu Yu.
Lu Yu replied firmly, “I’ve come this far; I must fight!”
“Okay, then I’ll join you in this battle,” said the Three-Eyed Dragon King. “As for the list of ten people, even if the gods themselves prevent one from going, making it only nine, the tenth person will still go, and there’s nothing they can do to stop it.”
The Three-Eyed Dragon King also left his mark on that stone.
Everyone was waiting, waiting for time.
When the final twenty-four hours arrived, Liu Xing also halted all business operations in Fanggang and recalled all the warriors stationed there, assigning them to their designated defensive positions.
Even the king-level puppets have been mobilized, and Luo Hao Tian and others are already in position.
The entire city has not yet encountered any threats, and the protective barrier established is countless times stronger than that of the Dark Descent.
Huge whirlpools appeared in the skies beyond the cities, and masses of black gas emerged from these whirlpools.
Darkness has truly descended.
They roamed across the land, not approaching cities, yet as if with awareness, they concealed one away, or perhaps even found those still in the wild.
Where darkness descends, none survive except the blood upon the ground.
…
Fen Tianluo looked up at the sky, stroking Huowu’s hair with a smile, and said, “You must come back.”
“Don’t worry, I will definitely come back,” Huo Wu said, her eyes slightly red as she threw herself into her father’s arms and quietly wept.
“Xiao Yu, no matter what the result is, Mom feels very happy. My son has grown up.” Lu Yu’s mother held him in her arms and smiled, saying, “Xiao Yu has become so tall that Mom has to stand on her toes to hug him now.”
Lu Yu smiled and said, “Mom, don’t worry. I’ve been preparing for this moment for a long time. I will definitely come back alive and ensure that you can live a peaceful life.”
Rumble… rumble…
Beams of light pierced through the golden shield in the sky, shining upon Lu Yu, Huo Wu, and the others.
Some beams of light also pierced into the ground.
Hum.
Figures rose within the beams of city lights, ascending toward the colossal star in the sky.
Lu Yu watched as the city beneath him grew smaller and the star above his head became larger.
“Lu Yu, on the Spirit Star, I will kill you.”
Within a golden beam of light, the golden-haired figure, along with tens of millions of divine servants, was also heading toward the Godly Star.
Golden light shimmered on them, connecting them together in a radiant beam.
Many spiritual servants became even more excited.
Because they can survive, they no longer have to worry about any apocalypse tide.
Lu Yu said coldly, “You’re nothing but puppets. One day, you’ll regret this!”
“Haha,” laughed many divine servants.
One person pointed at Lu Yu and the others, saying, “Once we arrive at the Divine Star, who exactly do you people think you are? What qualifications do you have to claim that we will regret it? I believe the ones who will truly regret it are you.”
The speed of the group grew faster and faster as they departed from the planet beneath their feet, traversing the starry sky toward the Divine Star.
The enormous planet became increasingly clear, allowing people to see its vast, undulating mountain ranges and numerous colossal cities.
Clear rivers, tranquil lakes, and vast, boundless oceans.
This is a planet suitable for human habitation, where even the air is refreshingly intoxicating.
As they passed through the planet’s atmosphere, they could hear the thunderous cheers rising from the ground, and see countless people joyfully raising their weapons toward the sky, exuding an immense fighting spirit.
The Reincarnation King chuckled and said, “Surely it’s not asking us to defeat everyone, is it?”
Lu Yu said coldly, “Even if it means fighting and killing everyone, I’m willing to do it.”
They were descending toward a city, where in its center lay an enormous platform stained with blood, and on it were dried, shriveled fragments of flesh stuck fast.
When the ten people were about to land in the city, the golden light suddenly vanished.
The speed of the ten people landing was slowed down, and their bodies landed safely, stepping onto the platform.
The platform was already surrounded by people, and pairs of eyes filled with murderous intent were all fixed on the ten individuals.
Or perhaps the beings here are not human, but rather some form of humanoid life.
They appeared indistinguishable from humans at first glance, yet each of them had three pupils in their eyes, and their skin was covered with a layer of tough keratin.
Xue Ji glanced at the humanoid figures around her and murmured, “Are you the Sky-Eyed People? Have you come here again!”
At the same time, all the humanoid beings around also saw Xue Ji. Among them, some people’s faces turned pale as they stammered in shock: “Her… how is she still alive?”
