Tens of thousands of serpent people emerged from the swampy pools and muddy underground, only to be turned to ashes in an instant.
The marshland nearly two hundred miles ahead of the Immortal King was evaporated.
The water pools formed deep pits like lakes.
The two hundred miles of marshland were everywhere cracked dry and engulfed in flames.
Some snake people had the ability to block the flames. Just as they were about to escape from the fire, fiery pillars as thick as ten zhang and as tall as over a hundred zhang erupted beneath their feet.
These pillars of fire crashed onto the snake people, violently shattering their powers and reducing them to ashes.
Everyone else, except for a few who knew the truth, was left stunned and motionless.
“King of Fire, isn’t the King of Fire already dead?”
“This is impossible. The Fire King must be dead; he can’t appear here!”
Many people don’t believe it.
However, each king’s royal skill is unique.
The King’s control over flames in front of him is certainly not something an ordinary person could achieve.
Only the King of Fire can control flame power to such an extent.
“Lu Yu has entered the Fire Domain. Could it be that he had already met the Fire King back then?”
“Yeah, he might have met the Fire King back then, which allowed him to maintain such a relationship with him.”
Someone murmured softly, thinking that there was no other possibility.
A large number of snake people perished, and from the muddy ground and ponds of the swamp, countless snake people emerged, rushing toward the depths of the marsh.
This swamp serves as a natural barrier, capable of blocking most enemies and further aiding them in concealing their movements.
However, in the face of King Wang’s power, their attempt to launch a sneak attack had become impossible.
All the snake people fled, like frightened rabbits, wanting to escape into the depths of the swamp.
Boom!
The King of Immortality did not move, but his royal aura surged forward like an ocean, instantly killing all the snake people who attempted to flee.
Boom—boom—boom—
Beneath the earth, the two Serpent King Lords could no longer wait for the Deathless King to reveal a weakness. They surged forth, engulfed in flames, launching attacks toward the Deathless King.
Hum.
The eyes of the Deathless King surged with blood-red light. His pupils actually spewed out a sea of blood, forming a blood-colored radiance dozens of zhang wide, which swept across the bodies of the two Snake-People Kings.
“Oh!”
The two Serpent Kings let out piercing screams as their flesh and blood were swept away by the sea of blood, erasing their very bodies. Even their powers of regeneration and recovery became ineffective.
“This—”
The kings at the back felt a tremor in their hearts.
Their peak times should not have such power.
The Fire King’s power is only supposed to be at the ultimate level of flames, so why are his other forces also so powerful?
The mere glow of a pair of eyes was enough to annihilate a King Zun, completely obliterating him. Such power was stronger than any of them.
“This is not the Fire King,” a king said in a deep voice. “The power of the Fire King should not be like this.”
“This person’s power is terrifying. Even if I were to reclaim my throne, I probably wouldn’t be able to defeat him!”
The voices of the several kings discussing were not loud.
However, to many people around, it was even more terrifying than being struck by lightning.
Even the king said so.
They looked at Lu Yu, and the more they did, the more they felt his terrifying presence—he was simply too patient.
Lu Yu endured several crises at Fangang without ever calling upon the Fire King for help, tolerating the situation until now.
If calculated this way, how much powerful combat strength has Fanggang actually retained and not yet used?
This time, it was obvious that Lu Yu had invited Wang to announce Fanggang’s strength to the world. By not avoiding them, he was also asserting his dominance.
What should Lu Yu do as the apocalypse tide is about to arrive?
Many people couldn’t understand.
At this moment, with the death of the two Serpent Kings, the hundreds of miles of marshland fell silent once more.
Even the King of Immortality has only taken one step forward.
Lu Yu narrowed his eyes, then followed the Deathless King into the flames.
The flame of the Undead King comes from his power, yet it is stronger than his power itself.
When Lu Yu stepped into the flames, even he could feel the scorching and unbearable heat.
However, Lu Yu knew that these flames couldn’t hurt him in the short term.
He forged his body into an indestructible demonic form using the essence of hellfire, and also received a portion of the Fire King’s power, making flames barely able to harm him.
“Regardless of what kind of power it is, there is always a limit, isn’t there? The power of fire is no exception. Since it’s about the same strength as my own flame, it seems this is the limit that humans can control.”
Lu Yu murmured to himself.
The King of Immortality has already taken the second step.
Boom!
The ground beneath his feet split open with a terrifying crack, creating a chasm dozens of zhang wide and ten zhang deep.
This fissure extended forward, stretching thousands of miles in an instant, tearing a gash through the earth. From within the rift erupted flames dozens of zhang high, forming a wall of fire that instantly split the entire thousand-mile marshland into two halves.
No one spoke; they all watched in silence.
The power of Wang made them afraid, almost freezing their blood.
Such power, if placed in the real world, would have its strength suppressed and could not reach such a scale. Even one-tenth of this power would be enough to destroy half a small city.
How many times can a large city withstand the king’s attacks?
Deep within the marsh, several snake-like creatures with wings on their backs hovered in the air, shrieking fiercely, “Lu Yu, don’t push too far! We can’t possibly give you a million Blue Star Souls!”
“Then I’ll go in and get it myself, until you give it to me!” Lu Yu stood at a distance, not wanting to say much more.
The King of Immortality did not utter a single word, truly transforming into light. He left a trail of radiant light in the air and instantly reached the side of those snake-men.
Several snake men were greatly alarmed, but before they could even utter a single word, a flame from the tip of the Deathless King’s finger swept over them.
Several snake people instantly burst into flames and fell towards the ground.
Then—
The King of Immortality has descended upon the earth.
Boom.
A vast land with a radius of five hundred miles centered on him was engulfed in flames that shot up to the height of a man. The swamps dried up, and countless snake-men were reduced to ashes.
Before the king, all obstacles are powerless.
Lu Yu followed closely behind. Just as he was about to reach the King of Immortality, figures emanating terrifying auras emerged one by one from beneath the flame-covered ground and lunged towards him.
These are all Snake Clan members, each holding a Half-Star Artifact, and they are none other than the sixteen Wang Zun.
They had been enduring silently, even as half of their body was consumed by flames, waiting for Lu Yu’s arrival.
If I can’t kill the King, can’t I at least kill an ordinary human?
Sixteen terrifying sword beams pierced the sky, each half-star artifact radiating an unusual glow, as if attempting to tear Lu Yu apart.
“Roar!”
A thunderous dragon’s lair erupted from within Lu Yu’s body.
The demon nest has opened, and more than a hundred powerful dragon demons surged out from Lu Yu’s body, instantly trampling a dozen snake-men onto the ground.
Under the biting and trampling of the Dragon King, sixteen royal dignitaries were crushed into bloodied pulp.
Although he did not die immediately, his body rapidly regenerated from the attacks of the Dragon King.
But at this moment, more than ten venomous dragons sprang into action, releasing boundless toxic gas that engulfed the locations of the sixteen Wangzun.
These kings, in their arrogance, charged out of the toxic gas, but their bodies became contaminated with the poison. Their flesh began peeling off in chunks, and they could no longer regenerate.
Many people were seeing Lu Yu take action like this for the first time.
Because battles between Lu Yu and Richard, or other Wang Zuns, have always been rarely seen by others.
As for the battle between Lu Yu and the King within the Stone City, no one has ever witnessed it.
This was the first time they had seen Lu Yu fight against Wang Zun, and it stunned everyone.
“Ten, one hundred thousand statues!” someone gulped audibly.
“How can we go on living like this?” someone cried out in despair.
Among them, many people strive to surpass even the Ten Thousand Honored Ones by continuously accumulating star treasures to enhance their power. Reaching the level of Twenty Thousand Honored Ones is already something only the wealthy can afford.
When Lu Yu made a move, his force reached the power of one hundred thousand尊. Even those魔龙, each one, possessed a terrifying strength of one hundred thousand尊.
How can they surpass this?
Sixteen Wang Zuns were killed, and for a moment, the marsh fell silent.
Lu Yu’s gaze pierced through a sea of flames as he coldly said, “Do you really think that because I have a King with me, my strength has weakened to the point where you can actually ambush me?”
There was only fire; no one else could see anything.
However, when Lu Yu’s gaze fixed upon them, several flames flickered and transformed into the forms of fire snakes, which then recoiled in terror.
“Playing with fire before me? Do you think you can escape?” The voice of the Undead King echoed from behind these serpent men.
Several snake people turned their heads in terror, not knowing when the King of the Undead had already arrived behind them.
Several Fire Snakes gritted their teeth and turned to attack together.
Boom.
On the armor of the King of the Undead, a giant flame dragon’s mouth suddenly appeared, swallowing several fire serpent-men into its mouth in one bite.
“Oh.”
The Flame Serpent screamed in agony within the flames.
Their flames are far inferior compared to the flames of the King.
The fire dragon’s mouth disappeared, and ashes were drifting in the sky.
Lu Yu said seriously, “Don’t waste time. Destroy the Snake People’s holy city; I have no intention of wasting time here.”
“Alright.” The Deathless King nodded and strode forward into the depths of the swamp.
The King of Immortality intended to turn this swamp entirely into a sea of flames, leaving everything in his path engulfed in fire.
The Fire King’s domain is merely a realm of lava beneath the earth’s surface.
The ground where the king before him had walked was also on fire.
Someone once tried throwing a weapon into the flames, and in an instant, it melted away.
Some people also tried to dig into the earth.
Lu Yu discovered that beneath the ground was not lava, but flames.
No matter how deep you dig, it’s flames—relentless and unquenchable flames.
“If he is truly the Fire King, then his power has grown stronger,” said the king, his expression turning even colder.
“Lu Yu’s power is also this terrifying.”
Those who managed to follow were either the ones who had avoided the flames, possessed the ability to withstand fire, or descended from the sky.
They gradually caught sight of the Snake People’s holy city, a city built right in the middle of a swamp.
The city wall is made of snake bones.
If you look closely, you’ll find that it’s actually a complete snake skeleton coiled within the marsh, forming a city in its embrace.
“This—”
Countless people were seized with horror.
What kind of snake, after death, would leave behind such a long snake bone?
This snake bone is not only long, but also thick.
It lay in the marsh with a height of thousands of feet, with part of it deeply submerged within the swamp.
On the snake bones, warriors of the Snake People and various humanoid tribes who had just retreated were all present.
They all stood beneath the serpent’s bones, brimming with murderous intent, every eye fixed upon Lu Yu and the Undead King.
A one-armed elderly snake-man gritted his teeth and said, “Lu Yu, you’ve gone too far! You think I’ll actually hand over a million Blue Star Souls just because you’ve brought along a King?”
“Go!” Without another word, Lu Yu let out a sharp shout and struck first.
More than a hundred dragon-like creatures roared in unison in the sky, their sonic waves shattering the void as they surged toward the serpent people’s holy city.
Boom!
The King of Immortality became even more resolute, transforming his body into a beam of light that hurtled toward the Snake City.
“Too fierce!”
Innumerable people gasped in astonishment, never expecting that Lu Yu would act immediately without saying a word.
As soon as the one-armed old serpent saw the two of them attack, he shouted fiercely, “Destroy them, kill the King as well.”
