Shan He’s face turned pale with shock.
Only a skull remained, its expression eerie and terrifying.
No matter how hard he tried to remain strong, he was just a head. His body could not be restored, and all he could do was wait for death.
Lu Yu’s grip on Shan He’s hand grew increasingly stronger, his entire arm transforming into a metallic sheen, gleaming like steel.
Crunch, crunch!
The five fingers of Lu Yu’s hand, pressing against the skull of Shan He, emitted a grating metallic sound like machinery, and were so sharp that they gradually pierced into Shan He’s skull.
Shan He was greatly startled, his mouth just beginning to open—
Bang!
His skull was shattered, and the red and white liquid fell to the ground.
“Before, you could be killed, and now, you can still be killed!” Lu Yu shook off the liquid from his palm and strode toward the battlefield.
At this moment, Lu Yu’s warriors cheered, and even many people who had come to witness the battle couldn’t help but exclaim in astonishment.
Lu Yu beheaded a King Zun. This was a true beheading of a King Zun, and he completely overwhelmed the opponent in terms of strength.
“This is Lu Yu, this is the strongest person in Huaxia!”
“Now he’s already qualified to challenge Wang Zun, this uncrowned king who can fight against kings.” Countless observers in front of their monitors couldn’t help but exclaim in astonishment, hardly more composed than those standing on the battlefield themselves.
…
Boom!
Lu Yu landed on the ground. As soon as he touched down, he crushed the thousands of demonic beings around him. Countless streams of energy were invisibly converging into his body, being stored away.
The more, the better! The stronger, the better!
Lu Yu screamed inside his heart, the blood-red light in his eyes becoming as fierce as a wild beast.
By this moment, the war seemed to have sealed its outcome.
The moment Lu Yu joined, the Indian army could no longer withstand the pressure.
Lu Yu transformed into a flame giant, destroying every enemy like a demon god.
A warrior with the strength of ten thousand realms attempted to block him, but Lu Yu seized a human of equal power in his palm, and flames instantly consumed the man’s body.
The power of the hunt silently accumulates these energies.
Hundreds of thousands of troops were retreating, and then collapsing.
Lu Yu fought against the Lord of the Netherworld and the Demon-slaying Elder. The Kings and King Elders retreated, their faces darkened, and vanished into the stars.
King and King Zun retreated, leaving the remaining forces even less able to withstand the army of two hundred thousand.
Innumerable people have died, turning the earth red, and the sky is also turning red.
Lu Yu’s army and the heavily armored forces swept towards the center from north and south respectively.
They destroyed city after city, hunting down all the demons.
No matter how much struggle and resistance the Indians put up, it was completely useless.
India’s resistance grew weaker, and many cities surrendered directly.
Many people fled India to save their lives.
This is the end of the world.
No one pities what they are.
The victor becomes the king, while the vanquished turns into a bandit.
With the two major forces and the simultaneous attacks from both the south and the north, even the Guardians had no choice but to abandon some cities.
India is not small. It took Lu Yu and the heavily armored warriors nearly ten days to sweep through city after city with their large army before finally gathering in the central region.
These days, countless messages are being transmitted around the world every single day.
Similarly, every day, satellites in the night sky are sending back countless pieces of information to the ground.
“India is finished.” Many national leaders silently stared at the intelligence reports before them, saying nothing.
If two guardians were to attack their country from both sides, would they be able to withstand the assault?
The collaboration between the two major powers actually resulted in the destruction of every city in India—what could they possibly be aiming to achieve?
Behind the battlefield, someone murmured, “I’ve heard that a guardian is closely linked to the nation they are meant to protect. If all the cities of that nation are destroyed, it is considered a failure on the guardian’s part. Likewise, if the guardian dies, that is also a failure. In either case, the losing side will lose everything related to the guardian. Therefore, Lu Yu and the other guardian have forced Abushe into a decisive battle.”
“There must be a decisive outcome; leave no way out for Abu She!”
Many people, upon witnessing such a war, couldn’t help but think about what might happen in the future.
Perhaps not many cities will remain in this world in the end.
The Guardians will destroy everything in this world.
And now—
Lu Yu went berserk in this battle, killing a Wangzun and pushing his reputation to the highest point.
Moreover, the number of powerful individuals who perished by his hand is countless, undoubtedly leaving a path paved with mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
No one knew exactly how many demons Lu Yu had slain; they had simply lost count.
Neither Lu Yu’s army nor the other side’s forces would necessarily kill people along their path, but they were to level every city and building to the ground!
The last city, a metropolis capable of accommodating millions of people.
The city is now covered by a pale blue light dome, within which countless beast demons, regeneration demons, and humans have gathered.
Every living being’s gaze was filled with bloodshed and hatred.
The Rebirth King stood atop the head of a colossal beast spirit, gazing at Lu Yu outside the city walls, his eyes blazing with flames.
The armored figure, riding on the back of a giant beast, approached Lu Yu’s side and said, “Lu Yu, break this light shield and reduce this place to the ground.”
Behind the heavily armored figure stood thousands of powerful warriors, as well as two Kings and two King’s Venerables.
This was the first time many people had ever heard the armored figure speak, and the first time they had seen that mighty guardian who shares a kingdom equally with the King of Hell.
No one knows where he came from, and no one is clear about his background.
Now it’s enough to know that he is a guardian!
The two guardians joined forces, and the people watching from the distant back felt a chill run through their entire bodies.
This is an alliance with the leader of a powerful force rivaling Wang Zhengfeng’s.
Lu Yu stared coldly at the armored figure and said, “What’s the matter? Your men aren’t lifting a finger—do you expect me to do all the work?”
“The natural choice is to take action,” the armored figure said calmly, not showing any anger. “This is Abushe’s last city. Destroying it means that even if we don’t kill Abushe, his status as guardian will be stripped away. But remember, everything he owns belongs to me.”
“Do you think I’m someone who breaks promises? Since I’ve given you my word, I won’t go back on it,” Lu Yu said, crossing his arms as he looked at the glowing barrier. “We don’t even know what this shield is. If we attack recklessly, something unexpected might happen.”
“However, we can’t just surround them without attacking. Since we’ve come this far, we should see it through to the end.”
Lu Yu looked at the armored figure and asked, “However, I’m really curious. Abeshe couldn’t possibly know your method of resurrection, so why did he manage to bring back so many Kings and King Lords who weren’t at full strength?”
The heavily armored figure said, “There must be many ways to resurrect, and surely I’m not the only one who knows just one of them, right?”
Lu Yu did not answer. He stared at the light shield, carefully searching through his memories, trying to recall any promise that resembled this light shield.
The demons within the city remained motionless, as if waiting for something, shielded by a barrier of light.
At this moment, the demons near the edge of the city automatically parted to both sides.
A black tiger, as tall as a man, carrying a huge golden chair, slowly approached the light shield. Upon the golden chair sat Abu She, his face dark with anger, his gaze fixed on Lu Yu and the armored figure as if he were about to kill them.
Abeshe’s final gaze fell upon Lu Yu, his voice sharp as he said, “Lu Yu, we have no enmity between us, yet you have joined forces with others to attack me!”
“If I don’t attack you, do you think you would let me go?” Lu Yu said coldly. “When the guardian’s barrier disappeared, was your attack on China merely an act? If it hadn’t been for me driving back the King of Ten Thousand Snakes, your army might have flattened a third of China by now. Abu She, this is a war between guardians. If I don’t kill you, you will surely come to kill me.”
“If you step back, I can give you a hundred drops of my blood, along with some additional star spirits and star pearls as compensation. Leave this place and let me fight him to decide the outcome. As for the grudge between you and me, we can settle it in a one-on-one battle later,” said Abu She, his gaze shifting to fix fiercely upon the armored figure.
Lu Yu said coldly, “You’re too late. I’ve already formed an alliance with him, so I won’t back out until you’re dead.”
Abeshe’s expression was shaken, and his voice turned sharp as he said, “So your meaning is that you must attack me.”
“That’s right,” Lu Yu replied with a nod.
“Very well, very well, then give it a try. I’d like to see if you can break through my city,” Abu She became extremely angry, waved his arms, and stood up abruptly from his golden chair, saying, “So you want to fight? Then let’s settle this here and now.”
Abeshe looked like a trapped beast, as if he were about to go mad.
The heavily armored man chuckled, “This is your last city in India. If you don’t fight now, what else can you do? We spent so much time destroying every city in India because I don’t want you to escape. I want everything from you. Ha! Do you think hiding inside your shell keeps you safe from us?”
“Then try it, if you dare!” Abu She roared like a wild beast, “I’d like to see if you can breach this city’s defenses.”
He spoke, then heavily patted the giant beast beneath him. The beast let out a strange, mournful cry and began to retreat backward.
“Lu Yu, let’s begin. I can’t wait to claim everything he possesses,” the heavily armored figure said, his only exposed eye gleaming with a cold light.
“Don’t act recklessly,” Ming Zun said coldly from the side. “With your abilities, breaking through this light barrier would come at a very heavy cost.”
Lu Yu looked at Mingzun in surprise and asked, “Senior, do you know what this is?”
A king standing behind the armored figure also spoke at this moment, his voice cold. “If my guess is correct, this light barrier is a Phantom Shield. No matter what attack is launched, half of its force will be reflected back. Moreover, the defensive limit of the Phantom Shield depends on the strength of the materials used to set it up. The opponent is also a guardian, aided by a king; it’s likely the shield’s defense could reach the level of a King Sage!”
Lu Yu and the armored man fell silent.
Their hearts trembled as they stared at the glowing dome, speechless for a long time.
Counterattacking with half of the returned force means that whoever launches an attack will have to endure half of their own force striking back.
Such a counterattack might be unbearable even for them.
The heavily armored figure spoke coldly, “What exactly is the upper limit of a King-tier defense? It would be better to have specific numerical values; otherwise, how can it be broken?”
The Supreme Sovereign said, “Even for a king, the Illusory Veil is a headache. In the past, breaking through it required countless lives. You people aren’t qualified enough. If you were to attempt to break it, more than half of you would likely perish.”
“Hiss.” The man in heavy armor inhaled sharply through his teeth.
Lu Yu remembered it too.
His Sky-Sundering Wings can ignore most barriers, while this Phantom Veil is one of the few that can block his power.
“Unless a king steps in, and I mean a true king, don’t even think about breaking it,” said the king behind the heavily armored figure.
“No, there’s still another way.” A cold glint flashed in Lu Yu’s eyes as he suddenly raised his head and said, “A certain King once mentioned a method that can break through the illusion barrier, although the cost requires a transfer.”
