Chapter 618: The First King (2)

China——

The armored man opened Pandora’s box, releasing an endless swarm of beasts, turning an entire nation into a sea of monsters.

No one could see the earth clearly.

Because even from a satellite view, the mountains and fields are already overrun with wild beasts.

Powerful surges of water were battering the borders of countries adjacent to India.

On the fourth day after the armored figure broke open the cursed box, the beast horde had already surged past the borders of Huaxia by dozens of miles.

There, the herd was blocked.

China also paid a tremendous price.

However, the defense line was still stabilized.

Walls, barriers, and protective shields began to be constructed.

The beasts’ assaults were unceasing, and time and again, the defensive measures of the Xia people were destroyed.

Lu Yu also dispatched warriors.

Experts led by Luo Haotian were in charge of a border section with tens of thousands of warriors under their command.

The Celestial Deities Organization also has personnel assigned to monitor a section of the border.

Even so, they also face tremendous pressure.

Constant impacts, where several, even dozens of waves of assaults had to be faced almost every day.

The meat grinder battlefield!

That was the name given to the battlefield on the border of Huaxia.

And it is exactly the same now.

This place became the most brutal battlefield; the sky and earth along the border were both stained red, and the fighting has continued nonstop since the very beginning.

The hidden move set by Abu Shehab is too terrifying; once unleashed, it cannot be suppressed.

But it was also the best place for training troops.

Countless warriors are heading there, joining either the army defending the port or the legions of other organizations, all uniting in defense.

Lu Yu sat amidst the starry sky, drawing in the essence of the stars to temper his weapon, as well as to strengthen his royal bones.

He was already on the verge of reaching ten thousand respects.

But this was still far from the level of Wang Zun.

On this day, Lu Yu received a message delivered by Liu Xing.

“A message came from Australia saying they hope Fanggang withdraws all its warriors there. Because soon they will have a major operation, and they don’t want any unpleasantness with Fanggang.”

“Oh?” Lu Yu frowned and said, “Are they also going to wage war against the Guardians?”

Liu Xing shook his head and said, “I’m not exactly sure about that. However, their attitude seemed very sincere, and they made a proposal, hoping that we would accept it. However, the Celestial Deity Organization has also sent a letter, stating that the matter is urgent.”

Lu Yu tore open the letter and glanced at it, then inhaled sharply, his voice low and heavy. “Wu Zhongjun from the Celestial Organization has seen that someone in Australia will break through tomorrow. It seems their Guardian is finished. Liu Xing, go immediately and issue the order—withdraw all our people from Australia.”

“Mr. Lu, is something big about to happen?” Liu Xing rarely saw Lu Yu wearing such an expression, and couldn’t help but feel nervous too.

” Wu Zhongjun’s foresight – at the latest within six hours, someone in Australia will become the true King Zun among humans!”

“What?”

Liu Xing’s heart almost jumped out of his body.

He felt his brain roaring as if it were about to explode.

“King Zun, someone is going to become King Zun?”

Liu Xing didn’t believe it.

Because according to legend, Wang Zun was not easy to cultivate.

The power of Wang Zun, the strongest contender against Wang Zhengfeng, has never been underestimated by anyone.

Six hours later, will someone in this era become the King Zun?

Who could it be?

Liu Xing didn’t dare to ask any more questions.

If someone from the Australian military became a Wang Zun, the first war would be the end of the Guardians.

Six hours, not much time left.

The port’s movements are significant.

Because Liu Xing knew there was no time left, he stopped worrying about anything else.

Even the clever people began to leave.

They all knew that Australia was about to make a big move.

The guardians of Australia also sensed something from the defensive maneuvers and began to consolidate their forces.

It’s only two hours away from Wu Zhongjun’s prediction.

Lu Yu appeared in a city in Australia.

This is the front line where Guardians and the Australian military are facing off.

It’s also not far from the city where the Guardians reside.

The land outside the city here is dyed red with blood. The grass, having absorbed the blood, has turned red; the flowers are red, and even the trees have turned red.

“That’s Lu Yu, how come he’s here?” Some Australians had been to Fanggang, and some had witnessed Lu Yu’s fighting.

They recognized the first person of the Huaxia people.

But also didn’t know why Lu Yu was here, feeling somewhat worried.

With the precedent of the Guardians joining forces last time, they feared that Lu Yu might team up with the Guardians in Australia again.

At this moment, another person also appeared above the city. Looking at Lu Yu in surprise, they exclaimed, “Lu Yu, you’ve come here too?”

“It’s been a long time, Lord Sky-Sunder.”

“Not long, not long.” The wings on the man’s back in the sky had already begun to turn golden in parts, and the regal aura around him grew even stronger.

He looked at Lu Yu with an unpleasant expression and sneered, “Lu Yu, for the time being, just go ahead and enjoy yourself.”

Lu Yu smiled and said, “What’s wrong? Do you want to kill me?”

“Not now, but soon,” said the Sky-splitting King, hovering in midair. “You must have come here because you sensed something as well. I didn’t expect humans to have such strong instincts.”

Lu Yu didn’t say anything, just glanced at the time.

At this moment, many human figures began to appear in the sky.

The King of Rebirth has come, the King of Hell has arrived.

Even many powerful Wang Zuns came.

For Wang Zun, their感应was the most intense.

Although they couldn’t guess what would appear next.

But they sensed a surge of power from a shared origin.

The sky over this city seemed to have frozen in place, and the air grew heavy.

No one in the city dared to move recklessly, not even making the slightest sound.

So many kings, so many royal dignitaries have come.

What exactly is happening in this city? What is going to occur?

Time was passing second by second, drawing ever closer to the moment Wu Zhongjun had predicted.

Lu Yu, possessing the Bone of King Zun, began to sense a powerful aura.

All the Kings’ eyes suddenly flashed with expressions of horror, and they exclaimed in unison, “King!”

The breath was too familiar.

The heavens and earth seemed to be suppressed in an instant, with infinite cracks appearing between the clouds.

This rift was too vast, covering hundreds of miles across the sky.

City after city came into view, and people began to sense an unprecedentedly powerful aura.

Boom!

The sky above Lu Yu and the others split open.

A figure clad in robes materialized within the empty void.

Cracks wove into armor around this person’s body. His aura was unparalleled; each breath seemed as if it could collapse the heavens and earth.

“This is Wang Zun, the real Wang Zun!” Lord Split Heaven exclaimed in shock. “Impossible! This cannot be! How could someone as powerful as a Wang Zun appear so quickly in this era’s human race?”

“That’s right. This is the aura of Wang Zun. So someone has actually become the Wang Zun.”

Lu Yu possesses the bones and power of a king.

But now, facing the person before him, he also felt the pressure.

An invisible pressure was suppressing him, forcing him to bow down and submit.

“Puff, puff!”

In cities across the land, countless people have already collapsed under such pressure and truly knelt to the ground.

They stared in horror at the figure in the sky, feeling a pressure far more terrifying than the end of the world.

As soon as this figure appeared, it strode across the sky and arrived above the city where the guardian was located.

Boom!

As the figure’s fist shot out, a fissure thousands of feet wide emerged from his punch, racing toward the city.

Just one punch, and the city was split with cracks.

All the people who stood in front of the crack were torn apart.

“This is Wang Zun’s power?” Lu Yu was astonished beyond belief.

Because this was the first time he had seen the true King Zun unleash his power.

It was that single punch; Lu Yu felt as though his entire body had been destroyed.

“Kill!”

The city guardian looked up at the sky and roared in anger.

Digital King and Wang Zun ascended together towards the heavens.

“Die!” The figure in the sky spoke, and with that single word came an overwhelming aura of murder as it descended from above.

The sound wave hit the ground, rushing from the sky to the earth, and was the first to strike those kings and royal dignitaries.

Then the sound fell, crashing onto the Guardian.

Bang!

The guardian’s body exploded.

Then the sound waves fell upon the earth.

Sound waves are invisible, yet by distorting the air, they allow many people to see clearly.

The distorted air swept over people, turning their bodies into blood-soaked mud.

The sound waves rippled outward like waves on water, leaving a trail of destruction in their wake. Countless people were turned into showers of blood, and building after building was reduced to rubble.

As the sound waves swept through the city, they gradually weakened afterward.

However, the powerful cultivators from various regions in the current sky could no longer speak.

Because the entire city was destroyed.

All of this is just a single word, a sharp shout!

Lu Yu had heard Xue Ji and the others recount countless times the power of the King and the King’s Ancestor.

An overwhelmingly powerful force that even the strongest among the Ten Thousand Sovereigns could not resist.

Lu Yu thought that even if one had to be strong, it should be within certain limits.

However, what was seen was far from what was imagined.

Ten thousand Zun-level powers are like mere ants before the Wang Zun.

“This is the power of Wang Zun,” Lu Yu murmured to himself, his expression filled with awe.

This is the true power that can rival Wang Zhengfeng’s, so mighty that it has reached such a level!

The Heaven-Sunder King and others remained expressionless.

This is something they have long known, merely appearing for the first time in this era.

They retreated, leaving behind only the strongest of this era.

The battle was no longer in suspense.

Even if a king possessed the power of ten thousand kings, and even used a king-making skill, he would still be no match for a single punch from King Zun.

Resurrection is merely about surviving; it doesn’t grant any ability to fight.

It’s way too different; the gap is just too big.

Who could have imagined that the true King Zun would be so terrifying and powerful?

The guardian was slain, and everything within this city became the possession of this royal master.

After this day, the entire world was shaken.

Australia has returned to tranquility.

A king, as revered as an emperor, stood high above all, suppressing every resistance in Australia.

His voice alone could destroy a city and shatter the power of countless formidable experts.

The news spread, and no one could have imagined that such a terrifying force existed in this world.

This power is already comparable to a small nuclear bomb.

Lu Yu returned to Fanggang, his expression extremely grave.

If the Doomsday Tide really arrives, there must be lives of King-level or above inside it.

Can my own defense port hold up?

“No, I’m not strong enough. I thought I was strong enough, but I still fall short,” Lu Yu sighed, feeling the gap between himself and Wang Zun for the first time.

The barrier between Wan Zun, Wang Zun, and the King is even more difficult to overcome than the threshold that the Devil Monarch faced when advancing toward the Supreme Being.

This is not something that can be resolved with medication; it requires certain conditions to be met.

The most fundamental requirement is to attain the strength of ten thousand zuns.

“Even if I have to become a King Zun, I will become the most powerful one,” Lu Yu murmured to himself.

After assisting King Reborn in reviving King Zun, there are still three other kings summoned by King Bao Lie.

Then came Kun, who resurrected the Lord of the Netherworld from several generations past.

He has too many things to do.

Whether to use the method of the Heavy Armor Man for resurrection or Abeshe’s method, this was something he needed to consider.

How do these two methods differ, and what exactly is the gap between them in terms of his resurrection?
