Chapter 972: The Madness of the Humanoid Race (2)

The humanoid race became notorious for cannibalism and slaughter.

Even in the era of the Soul Master, countless people lost their lives when the Soul Master sought to subdue their clan.

They are still beasts at heart, so each of them has shed countless blood.

But compared to the person before him now.

That person is a beast.

They could no longer tell exactly how many people Lu Yu had killed or how many lives he had taken.

Because the strong aura emanating from Lu Yu was surprisingly as pungent as the actual smell of blood.

This, this has never happened before.

However, this could not stop their suppression; countless people piled on top of Lu Yu, and those at the bottom were already gnawing at his body.

Teeth clamped down on Lu Yu’s body, producing a “crunching” sound, and shattered.

Lu Yu was crushed beneath the weight of hundreds of thousands of people, his back feeling as if it were carrying a colossal mountain.

For the first time, Lu Yu felt a surge of alarm.

These people really don’t care about their lives anymore. They’re willing to risk everything just to kill him.

“Boom!”

Lu Yu pressed his hands against the ground, and his body suddenly sprang up.

Everything on his back was shaken off and flew into the air.

Lu Yu raised his long sword toward the sky. With a sweeping arc of blade light, ten-thousand-zhang brilliance carved a vacuum across the heavens.

Blood rain poured down as a severed foot fell to the ground.

“Are you all insane?” Lu Yu looked into the distance. More people were rushing forward, showing no intention of stopping at all.

“Haha!” countless humanoid warriors roared with laughter.

No one answered; they were just rushing towards Lu Yu.

Lu Yu let out a cold snort, and swept his long sword again.

Where the sword light passed, no one could stand in its way.

“This is my territory! What can you do!” Lu Yu charged alone into the midst of the humanoid warriors.

The aged Demon Ape growled furiously, “Lu Yu, how is your home ground? Back then, there were many who were stronger than you, such as the Master of Souls. Yet even he stood upon this land and still met his death! How much stronger are you than the Master of Souls?”

Yuanmo shouted angrily.

Behind the crowd, another aged voice shouted, “What are you waiting for? This is a battlefield—do you intend to kill with glares alone?”

“Before you stand the inheritors, the mutated star-soul inheritors who once enslaved our ancestors. Kill them, and eradicate their very roots!”

Several aged voices harshly shouted from behind, also urging the humanoid warriors to take action.

A hoarse voice, filled with a strong metallic scent of blood, carried a peculiar wave-like vibration, as if imbued with some magical force. This force was penetrating the minds of the humanoid warriors, causing their eyes to turn red and driving them to attack even more frenziedly.

This is not even a battle of the same level.

Lu Yu was invincible, leaving rivers of blood in his wake. The earth had long lost count of the countless corpses buried within it.

But more were devoured by the Black Dragon’s head.

The City of Bones still stands, completely shielding the northern wall of Fanggang.

No one who sets foot on this land can attack Fanggang.

Unless they kill Lu Yu.

A group of human warriors once attempted to launch an attack from the sky.

However high they flew, as long as they were above the City of Bones, they could not launch an attack.

Therefore—

Lu Yu is alive, the northern city wall will never fall!

From the distant rift that reached the heavens, humanoid warriors poured forth like an endless swarm of locusts.

From the heavens to the earth, spreading in all directions, it submerged both the light in the sky and the land itself.

The city of Fanggang was filled with shouts and the sounds of collisions everywhere.

Lu Yu couldn’t afford to worry about all that. He handed over the defense of Fanggang entirely to Liu Xing, leaving Liu Xing in full charge.

Lu Yu knew that before long, he probably wouldn’t have time to be distracted anymore.

He stood alone here to allow more troops to regroup and create an opportunity for the defense of the port.

The deafening sounds of slaughter overwhelmed the northern city wall.

Lu Yu had lost count of how many people he had slain, and could no longer remember the passage of time.

“Kill!” shouted the humanoid warrior, swinging his weapon.

They kept charging forward wave after wave, never stopping.

“You really fear no death? Then I shall slay you until you do!” Lu Yu roared, his Starlight Sword flashing down once more as ten beams of sword light cleaved through the sky for ten thousand zhang.

Innumerable lives were lost, yet not a soul wavered.

“Boom!”

At the edge of the land, countless powerful presences were drawing near.

Streaks of blood light pierced through the void.

The aura of bloodshot eyes!

The warriors from the Bloodshot City, hundreds or even thousands of miles away, have arrived.

King’s breath was astonishingly abundant.

Ten thousand?

No, Lu Yu sensed the presence of ten thousand kings, among which more than a hundred were kings at the peak of the first level.

“Lu Yu, are you still feeling arrogant?” a humanoid warrior laughed wildly. “Do you see now? You can’t possibly kill all your enemies.”

The humanoid race has already received divine intelligence on the Monster Hunting Plains.

Anyone who does not have a golden glow around them is an ally.

The bloodshot eyes approaching from afar do not emit a golden glow, so they must be the same kind of target as them.

What qualification does Lu Yu have to stand in the way of ten thousand kings?

The earth was nearly flattened by the approaching presence from afar.

The city composed of blood towers is vast, and the ground paved with bones already stretches far beyond the horizon.

Therefore, when Lu Yu saw figures or lights appearing at the end of the horizon, it meant that countless people had set foot on the City of Bones, heading toward the northern city wall of Fanggang.

The City of Bones is vast, capable of accommodating millions to engage in battle.

Behind the ten thousand kings are countless Blood-eyed warriors.

Lu Yu and others must defend Fanggang to survive, while the Blood Eyes seek to kill the defenders of Fanggang, searching for hope of survival amidst the massacre.

Following the ten thousand kings are millions of blood-eyed warriors.

They had already unleashed a series of skills while still far away at the horizon’s edge.

Beams of light surged toward Lu Yu like dragons emerging from the water.

The powerful humanoids did not descend, yet their numbers were vast.

The Blood Eyes that arrived were few in number; even the strongest among the Blood Eyes’ warriors and many city lords had come.

These skills converged, transforming into a colossal dragon stretching tens of thousands of zhang in length, splitting the heavens and earth apart. It not only reached the battlefield, but also shattered the weakest nearby humanoids into pieces.

Lu Yu didn’t dare to be careless and swung his Starlight Sword in his hand.

Ten sword beams split the sky and collided with the great dragon.

Hum.

The heavens and earth roared as the shockwave transformed into a radiant halo, slicing outward in all directions and cutting through the waists of millions of humanoid warriors.

Even the tens of thousands of bloodshot eyes at the very forefront, which had just emerged over the horizon, were so shaken that they spat out large mouthfuls of blood.

Boom… Boom…

Another round of radiant light surged forward, with raging dragons thrashing wildly.

“Kill!”

The humanoid warrior attacks as well.

This time, they also swept out their skills, and waves of abilities rained down like a storm, submerging the area where Lu Yu was standing.

The two forces unite as one.

Boom!

Lu Yu flew backward, his body plummeting hundreds of meters before finally hitting the ground.

“Haha, he can’t take it anymore.”

“This is an opportunity.”

The humanoid creatures lunged forward to attack.

The Blood-eyed Warrior lunged forward as well.

The two forces merged once again.

This strike sent Lu Yu flying backward once again, spitting out large mouthfuls of blood.

No matter how powerful he is, he’s still just one person. Each of the ten thousand kings on the opposing side possesses at least enough strength to challenge a city lord. Moreover, there are also millions of Blood Eyes charging alongside them.

The humanoid warrior pressed toward Lu Yu again, seizing the opportunity to try to subdue him.

When hundreds of thousands of humanoid warriors took flight, countless beams of cold light erupted from Lu Yu’s body.

Cold light transformed into billions of blades of destruction in the air, coalescing into a dragon composed entirely of swords.

The hundreds of thousands of human-like warriors who had yet to descend from the sky were all shredded into a rain of blood.

“I’ve merely used a single sword, yet you all thought you could kill me.” Around Lu Yu, sword dragons danced wildly; with just one flick of their tails, they sent hundreds of thousands of humanoid warriors flying.

“Kill!”

The Blood-eyed Warrior is approaching.

Buzz.

The sword dragon swept by.

More than a hundred kings with peak cultivation power joined forces, their combined might creating a violent gale that shattered the sword dragon.

The kings’ skill of becoming a king, honed by the hundred thousand kings behind, was also unleashed with a roar.

Boom… Boom…

The Starlight Sword slashed out, and ten sword beams shattered along with a hundred thousand skills.

Bang!

Among the humanoid race, dozens of kings collided with Lu Yu, using their hands and feet in an attempt to pin him down.

“Roar!”

A black dragon emerged from Lu Yu and devoured the dozens of kings.

Then the body of the black dragon extended in the air, rushing toward the blood eye.

Buzz.

With their combined forces, the Ten Thousand Kings shattered dozens of Black Dragons in an instant.

“Lu Yu, we all know your abilities. If you want to devour, you must actually swallow. Do you really think we would let the Black Dragon get close to you?”

The hundred strongest kings, led by Qi, attacked once again.

Unified attack!

Lu Yu crashed straight into the blood-colored earth, one arm shattered, his entire body covered in countless wounds.

“Haha!”

Laughing maniacally with bloodshot eyes.

“Lu Yu, can you handle guarding this place alone?”

The humanoid warrior said, “No human is invincible. Even the Soul Lords aren’t invincible, so on what grounds do you humans claim to be?”

The wounds on Lu Yu’s body were closing rapidly. He stood up, spat out a mouthful of blood, and coldly said, “Did you really think that I don’t have any other means besides this technique?”

Boom!

The toxic gas around Lu Yu transformed into black flames, soaring directly up to dozens of zhang in height.

Then, in an instant, the black flames recoiled and covered his entire body, forming heavy armor that enveloped him completely, leaving only his eyes exposed.

Bang!

Lu Yu turned around and rushed towards the Blood Eye.

“It’s poison! Stop him!” someone among the humanoid creatures shouted in warning.

More skills were coming towards Lu Yu.

“Buzz.” Another hand of Lu Yu materialized a sword composed of cold, shimmering light. The sword’s glow sliced through the void, cleaving even the skills asunder.

“Blade of Slaughter!” a hoary voice warned from behind the humanoid warrior: “Don’t let him get close.”

“You don’t need to remind us. We know more about his poison.”

King Blood Eye roared, showing no mercy.

In an instant, the hundred kings joined forces once again, unleashing their peak strengths in full.

The light of the Starlight Sword swayed, and the power of the sword dragon swept wildly.

The attacks from the Blood Eyes were blocked.

Lu Yu, clad in heavy armor, strode through the shimmering rain of light fragments from the shattered skill.

Stegosaurus and Starlight Sword blocked the Bloodshot’s ability, creating an opportunity for Lu Yu.

“Scatter!” roared the Blood-eyed King at the front.

Boom!

The Wing King’s wings emerged behind Lu Yu, carrying him like a beam of light that directly crashed into the Blood Eye faction’s ranks.

“Roar!”

The black dragon roared, its mouth wide open like a gigantic bottomless abyss, instantly swallowing more than a hundred thousand blood eyes.

“Retreat, retreat, retreat quickly!”

The Blood Eye faction was in chaos.

Numerous Blood-eyed Kings, along with the city lord, turned around to launch another attack.

But Lu Yu disappeared.

“Do you really think you can suppress me just by outnumbering me?”

Lu Yu’s voice emerged from behind the Blood-eyed King, who ranked among the top hundred strongest beings.

Boom!

Baiwei Wang turned around and attacked again.

But there was nothing behind them.

Lu Yu’s voice echoed from the sky, saying, “This is my territory, you cannot enter!”

But when everyone looked up, Lu Yu was no longer in the air.

Between heaven and earth, a thousand zhang of star ribbons wove into a vast net, within which no one could discern Lu Yu’s exact location.

“Roar!”

When the dragon’s roar sounded again, two out of the ten thousand Blood-eyed Kings had vanished.

“It’s too… too fast,” the Ten-Thousand-Blood-Eyed King muttered, his confidence shattered as he arrived.

But now it left them feeling cold all over.

Lu Yu’s speed was beyond comprehension; how could they stand a chance against him in battle?

Within just a dozen seconds, before the kings could react, the dragon’s roar sounded again.

Another ten-thousand-life Blood King vanished.

The Ten Thousand Blood-eyed Kings had arrived less than half an hour ago, yet already thirty thousand had perished.
