Beyond the city of Fanggang, no one can speak out.
Hearts were pounding beyond their limits.
Lu Yu and the Snake-haired warrior’s seemingly casual strikes were actually capable of unleashing devastation powerful enough to destroy an entire city.
Both of them moved with the intent to kill each other decisively.
If not standing here, it would be hard to believe that Lu Yu has already become so powerful.
He was actually challenging a king!
When Lu Yu’s bone wings spread out behind him, expanding into a sky-spanning expanse a thousand zhang wide, covering the heavens and earth, the observers outside the city and at the other end of the satellite had already gasped in stunned silence.
When the masses saw those glowing clusters, they all understood clearly.
“This is yet another skill capable of destroying an entire city with a single strike!”
“Lu Yu, if no one can stop Lu Yu, he could easily destroy a country all by himself.”
“Sky-Sundering Wing, this must be the skill of the Sky-Sundering King, this is a King-level skill!”
Everyone’s hair stood on end, feeling a sense of powerlessness in the face of Lu Yu.
…
Sky-Sundering Beam: The light sphere condensed upon the Heaven-Rending Wings possesses the power to ignore the Void Sealing of King Zun and most armors. At the current stage, it is possible to condense up to one hundred thousand Sky-Sundering Beams.
…
One hundred thousand blue beams shot out from the Riftwing, striking the ground and hitting the snake-haired woman.
Beam after beam of light shot forth like meteors, swift and dense as rain.
The void was pierced, and the earth was shattered.
Buildings that were once indestructible were left riddled with holes, some shattered into pieces by the impact.
The next second, these buildings returned to their original state.
But that power had already been imprinted in the mind of every person.
The royal armor on the snake-bodied figure radiated a brilliant glow, like a blazing sun enveloping him.
The beam of light pierced through the radiance, heavily striking the armor with a resounding impact.
The snake-haired figure let out a muffled groan as his body was forcefully propelled to the ground, crashing into a building before bouncing onto the street.
“Buzz!”
Lu Yu’s twin wings behind his back trembled slightly, and in the blink of an eye, he became invisible and intangible, reappearing behind the snake-haired creature in the next instant.
He reached out and struck, shattering the emptiness before him.
With this palm strike, the vitality of a hundred Zun was transformed into a devastating force like a tsunami, directly shattering the light shield on the Wang Zun’s armor and heavily impacting the armor of the serpent-haired man.
Snap!
Wang Zun’s armor had even more cracks, and the rebounding force was also stronger.
Bang!
The counterforce recoiled, causing Lu Yu’s entire arm to twist and warp, with countless wounds tearing open across his muscles and bones.
The snake-haired man’s eyes flashed with a fierce light. He turned around, opened his mouth, and a beam of light shot out, piercing through Lu Yu’s chest.
Lu Yu was sent flying into the air after being hit.
Lu Yu’s chest was bleeding, and the wound was healing at an unusually slow pace, or rather, it showed no sign of healing at all.
The snake-haired, human-faced figure wore a blank expression. With a single step, it soared into the sky and swung a fist toward Lu Yu.
A punch that seemed slow was actually faster than anything else.
Boom!
Lu Yu was sent flying into the city by a single punch, crashing onto the ground.
“Lu Yu, you’re not even close to being my equal.” The snake-haired creature sneered, diving down from the sky with a fierce, meteor-like force, charging straight toward Lu Yu.
Lu Yu slapped the ground with one hand and sprang up.
Boom!
Heaven and earth stirred up a violent storm.
Jets of air transformed into whirlwinds.
Lu Yu disappeared, at a speed as fast as light.
…
Godlike Speed: When the Rift Heaven Wings vibrate, they enable the user to reach the ultimate speed limit. This allows them to pass through most barriers and obstructions without hindrance. Once the user attains King-level power, they can ignore all but a few extremely rare barriers and obstructions. Flight while in the Godlike Speed state generates storms; everything in the storm’s path—living beings or otherwise—will be crushed into pieces, just as if struck by the attacker’s most powerful blow!
…
The serpent-haired figure lost sight of Lu Yu’s shadow. With a twitch of the snakes atop its head, numerous tiny serpentine heads rose up, their eyes scanning in all directions.
He suddenly turned around, and the Xingqi slashed fiercely towards the back.
The starry weapon slashed out a thousand-foot-long beam of light, yet it merely struck a lingering shadow.
Boom!
Lu Yu’s palm, carrying unparalleled destructive power, pierced through the light shield on the snake-haired man’s armor and struck Wang Zun’s armor, leaving countless cracks spreading across its surface.
Lu Yu is fast, but the snake-haired man is even faster.
When Lu Yu struck him, the snake-haired man’s star weapon also landed on Lu Yu’s crown.
Hiss.
The star weapon was incredibly sharp, splitting Lu Yu in half.
The countless snakes atop the Gorgon’s head suddenly grew in length and lunged toward Lu Yu’s severed body.
The two halves of the body exploded, and the endless rain of blood transformed into a vast area of nearly a thousand zhang covered in black arrows.
A snake hair touched a drop of black blood, suddenly fell off on its own, and turned into black water falling toward the ground.
The remaining snakes quickly retracted.
The snake-haired giant took a giant step backward, retreating thousands of zhang in an instant, landing atop the city wall.
The attack was launched with a crackling energy beam, followed by the snake-haired figure retreating—all happening within just two seconds.
All the attacks and counterattacks were executed in the blink of an eye.
Satellites could not fully capture the two individuals’ speed, only managing to pick up faint traces of their afterimages during the brief moments when they paused their attacks.
The crowd outside the city was breathless with anticipation.
Lu Yu and the Snake-Haired Man exchanged no words, each pouring all their strength into every fierce strike, wielding either star artifacts or raw, overwhelming power in their relentless battle.
If such an attack were to fall upon them, none of the people present would dare to claim they could withstand it.
Someone touched their forehead, where large beads of sweat were falling.
“Guardian… is this really the Guardian? What exactly does the Guardian represent, and why is it so terrifying?”
“Was it because of the snake-haired woman that Lu Yu dared not set foot in Japan for ten years after he went there?”
When everyone realized this point, they all felt astonished.
Given Lu Yu’s abilities, he dares not approach the Guardian lightly. Who exactly is this Guardian?
…
At the same time the battle for Fanggang began, chaos erupted across the entire world.
The kingdom of the Hell King was besieged by millions of colossal beasts. A third of the island collapsed, and tsunamis spread across the ocean in all directions, submerging one small island after another before shattering them to pieces.
From a fractured mountain range in North Korea, countless powerful creatures emerged, destroying city after city as they surged toward South Korea.
India launched a fierce offensive against the Chinese border.
The Reborn Demon and countless Beast Demons flattened the border outposts of Huaxia, tearing through line after line of defenses.
Suddenly, countless powerful humans or demon warriors emerged in every country, including the United States and the United Kingdom.
This is a world like never before, as if heralding the arrival of the apocalypse, with chaos everywhere.
The flames of war keep spreading, and no city, no matter how peaceful, can escape.
Powerful warriors, strong enough to take one’s breath away, are commanding countless soldiers to occupy city after city.
“Submit, or perish!”
This is the order they issued.
In every occupied city, each person must surrender a quota of Starstone, or face death or expulsion.
This is true all over the world, as continent after continent is engulfed by the flames of war.
“It’s in chaos, everything is in chaos,” the weak person cried out in despair.
“Oh my God, what exactly is going on here? Are they really going to wipe out all of humanity?”
More than a decade of peace made them all forget that the apocalypse was right around the corner.
“Counterattack, counterattack!”
Powerful forces of nations roared one after another.
The Fire Dragon Star Soul of the Celestial Deity Organization has been deployed, and the ace of the Chinese military has also been dispatched.
The aces of various organizations and military forces were also mobilized.
Squadrons of elite troops, never before revealed to the public, have now also been deployed onto the battlefield.
Heaven-Sundering King, Parasitic King, Rebirth King, and even some King Elders who had long remained hidden also made their moves.
The war had reached a white-hot intensity.
The advance of the Guardian’s army was temporarily halted. However, the Guardian’s combat power was simply too overwhelming.
All countries were horrified.
What exactly is this force? Why has it only been discovered now? Where have they been all along?
The war shows no sign of ceasing. The demon race has been driven into a frenzy, the Guardians are launching even fiercer attacks, and humanity certainly won’t abandon their territories or slow their advance.
Everywhere was war.
…
Fanggang.
The world was submerged by a toxic wave, like a tsunami.
The snake-haired man let out a loud roar, using his star-forged weapon to slash through the toxic waves and strike down a venomous dragon within the tsunami.
The venomous dragon’s body was severed, and the toxic waves transformed into fiery dragons that surged down toward the snake-haired man.
The serpent-haired figure leaped over the fire dragon, evading the attacks from the fifty-thousand flame giants and the two domain guardians.
“Lu Yu, come out and face me in single combat!” the serpent-haired man roared, his eyebrows furrowed in anger.
This city is Lu Yu’s domain; he cannot be at a disadvantage anywhere in it.
These guards are immortal and indestructible, their domain guarding bodies are invincible, not even star-forged weapons can pierce through them.
The strength of both domain guardians has already reached the level of Ten Thousand Sovereigns.
The two guards joined forces and blasted the snake-haired creature out of Fanggang City.
Before the snake-haired man’s body could even hit the ground, Lu Yu was already above him. The Sky-Splitting Wings unfolded, releasing a hundred thousand piercing beams that drove the snake-haired man into the earth.
Beyond the Fanggang area, the land was unprotected, and upon impact, it struck the ground so violently that it created a funnel-shaped crater dozens of meters deep and hundreds of meters in diameter.
In the second round of beam barrages, one hundred thousand beams converged into a colossal pillar of light dozens of zhang wide, which then smashed down onto the snake-haired giant.
The snake-haired figure pushed off the ground with both hands, springing upward. Two serpentine beams of light spiraled from his eyes, bypassing the column of light, and struck Lu Yu’s Sky-Sundering Wings.
The snake-haired figure was struck by the pillar of light, and Wang Zun’s armor emitted a crisp sound of dense cracking.
The Sky-Sundering Wings behind Lu Yu were also shattered into pieces.
This is the power connected to him, and at the same time, it is also a part of his body.
He spat out a large mouthful of blood, a flash of light in his eyes, as he dashed forward like a cannonball, feet pounding through the air toward the snake-haired man.
The snake-haired figure radiated an overwhelmingly fierce power, instantly reaching the peak of his strength.
Boom!
The snake-haired figure’s entire body exhaled countless streams of air from every pore, compressing the surrounding airflow and forcing it outward in all directions.
“Ten thousand honors!”
Outside the city, countless people screamed and shouted in panic.
This is the King’s Myriad Reverence Power!
Even the Snake-Haired Man has reached the power of ten thousand respects.
“Lu Yu, I have restored my Ten Thousand Venerations Power, how can you possibly fight against me!” the snake-haired figure roared, his serpentine hair thrashing wildly.
Boom!
A fist shot out, breaking through the sound barrier with a burst of air pressure, rushing toward Lu Yu.
Bang!
Lu Yu’s fist collided with the air current, and one of his arms was shattered.
Immediately afterwards, his entire body was swept over by a surge of energy, and his body was torn to shreds.
The snake-haired warrior stood on the ground, roaring fiercely, “Lu Yu, have you already exhausted all your power? The Complete Poison Dragon Body and these bone wings are indeed powerful, yet still unable to kill me. What’s so special about the Bone of the King? In my eyes, no one but a king equal to me has the qualification to challenge me!”
Flesh and blood gathered towards the center of the sky as Lu Yu strode forward, his voice cold. “It’s not over yet,” he said. “Reveal your King’s Skill, or you will be the one to die!”
“Arrogant! What makes you think you have the right to kill me? You’re not even close to seven thousand zuns in power. There’s a gap of three thousand zuns between us. That’s the difference.”
“You want to see the difference between us? Then I’ll show you what real difference means.” Lu Yu took a deep breath, and behind him, his shattered bone wings regenerated.
Boom!
He moved.
In an instant, his shadow vanished from the world.
Voices, breaths, even people themselves seemed to vanish.
The Gorgon’s head was crowned with a mass of rearing snakes, their eyes fixed in all directions.
His breathing was slow, and at this moment, he also sensed the danger.
If previously it was a matter of both sides testing each other, now the testing has ended—it’s now a life-or-death struggle!
