The Han man did not display his true power; his eyes merely changed color.
That moment instantly stunned the entire audience.
Everyone was surprised except Lu Yu.
They assumed the four strong men were human, merely trained to maintain such expressionless faces.
They are not human at all, but living dragons.
“The dragon is alive!” The crowd was astonished.
The Dragon’s Nest has been sealed; it is the burial ground of the dragon race. Why, then, does a living dragon still appear upon this land?
The old man’s expression shifted slightly as he looked at Lu Yu and said earnestly, “Four dragons? If these four dragons get involved, would you like to reconsider? That item is worth your effort—I assure you, it won’t let you down!”
“That’s fine!” Lu Yu agreed without hesitation.
All he needs is some rest time. Given a period to recover, he is confident he can hold on.
“Alright. Since that’s the case, we four will help you get through this period; it should be enough time for you to recover,” said the large man whose pupils changed color, nodding his head.
They clearly understood their own strengths, as well as Lu Yu’s capabilities, and knew who the main force would be in this operation.
When it comes to resilience, Lu Yu is stronger!
“Do not approach the passage; let them see our intentions clearly,” said the elder.
At this moment, footsteps could already be heard from behind the group.
The humanoid species appeared on the mountaintop.
They saw Lu Yu and the others in the distance, then noticed the vast palace complex, and finally laid eyes on the passage.
They hesitated for a moment and did not approach Lu Yu at the mountaintop.
This should be the end of the road; the palace must hold countless invaluable treasures within.
It’s not the time for conflict yet!
“There are still six hours!” the old man calculated the time.
Lu Yu took a deep breath, striving to keep his emotions calm.
The most important thing is the first strike before the passage is opened.
If he can block it, he’s already halfway to success.
Just as everyone was waiting, Qin Hai arrived with Zhang Yong.
Zhang Yong stood bewildered on the mountaintop, as if some of his lost memories had returned. He said, “It seems I’ve regained a bit of my memory. I’ve seen this passageway once before, but it wasn’t here. It will open again in a little over five hours.”
Qin Hai said coldly, “Is that so? Then it seems there was some use in bringing you along after all. Five hours ago, we decided not to confront Lu Yu.”
The old man resumed his cheerful demeanor, but when he looked at Qin Hai, his eyes revealed a strong sense of vigilance.
No one knows exactly how much power the King of Hell has regained.
This was not the time to argue.
He will definitely argue here!
This place, which has produced something as incredible as the Evolution Serum, holds treasures worth fighting for.
This time, Prince Wang and all the demon clans will likely mobilize all their forces.
The four great demon clans appeared, led by that demon king and his puppet.
Everyone has arrived.
The old man said, “The other passages ultimately lead here as well. So there isn’t just one passage leading into this place!”
Zhang Yong said, “There’s still about an hour left. I don’t think I’ve miscalculated the time; the passage requires some time to activate before it can be used.”
“That’s enough. Step down,” Qin Hai said, looking at the demon race’s Supreme Being.
The humanoid warriors and the demon race have temporarily joined forces.
Once the passage is opened, it might lead to a major battle.
Dozens of people walked up to the passage.
One warrior was lost from the demon race, and several lives were lost among the humanoid race as well.
It would be quite difficult to pass through that corridor; even working together would come at a certain cost.
The Demon King looked at Zhang Yong and said, “There’s still one hour left, right?”
Zhang Yong nodded and said, “Yes, there’s still one hour!”
The Demon King nodded, turned his head to look at Lu Yu, and coldly said, “I think this is the place to settle things once and for all. One hour is more than enough to kill you. What’s the use of possessing the power of a King? You’re still far inferior to me.”
The Demon King, speaking as he stepped forward, caused the void beneath his foot to begin cracking with countless thick fissures racing toward Lu Yu.
Boom!
The old man’s demeanor changed abruptly; his slightly bent waist straightened in an instant, and his eyes shot out piercing rays of light.
The surrounding void became heavy, as if each person were wearing shackles.
The shackles grew increasingly heavy, actually suppressing the cracks in the void to the point where they could no longer move.
“What, Earth Soul!” a demon stared at the old man in astonishment.
Among the Nine Mutated Star Souls, including Slaughter and烈火 (Fiery Flame), three of them are already present here.
In every era, the Nine Mutated Star Souls have been the most powerful force in the battle against the demonic race.
Any king would have a headache over the nine mutated star souls. Their inheritors are ever-renewing, each possessing the potential of a king ancestor.
The three major mutated Star Souls are here, even the Demon Race’s Supreme Being can’t help but furrow his brows.
The Earth Soul has a certain ability to counteract the power of the King’s Veneration, though its effect is very strong.
“I think this isn’t the Earth Spirit Soul, but rather the Uranus Spirit Soul!” Qin Hai stared coldly at the old man and said, “If I’m not mistaken, you must be Wang Zun, right?”
“Hiss!”
Numerous demon and humanoid warriors stared at the old man, their eyes wide with astonishment.
Well hidden.
They knew the old man was extraordinary. But becoming a King Zun? No one had expected that!
“If you wish to learn the extent of my power, my lord, you are welcome to come and test it yourself,” the old man said with a chuckling laugh, as a fierce and overbearing aura of battle surged around him.
Qin Hai coldly said, “You’re challenging me. Even if you are a Wang Zun, don’t forget that you will always remain beneath the Wang!”
“Then let’s see if I can defy heaven and behead a king!” The old man stood even straighter, his eyes now radiating boundless killing intent.
The snake humanoid wearing the royal armor, with a snake-like tongue flickering, sneered in a harsh voice: “Since we’re going to eliminate some people first, let’s just get rid of all these humans.”
The snake man flicked his long, snake-like tongue and swayed his tail, saying, “With the flesh and blood of the nine mutated star souls, I will drink your blood. That inheritor of the Flame Star Soul, your life is mine.”
“It seems the remaining humans will be our food then.” The remaining humanoid warrior burst into maniacal laughter, staring at the rest of the humans as if they were the most delicious delicacy.
“The three strongest are already restrained; what qualifications do you have to challenge us!” Dozens of demons stepped forward, their faces twisted with menace.
Wave after wave of murderous intent locked onto numerous humans.
Among the crowd, four silent and wordless men had their eyes changing. Each pair of eyes, resembling snake-like pupils, displayed silver, black, red, and golden hues!
Like eight beams of light stretching for tens of meters, they shot into the void.
Such a vision immediately caught the eyes of the Demon Clan’s Supreme Being and others like Qin Hai.
“Hiss!”
“The Dragon Clan actually survived!”
Everyone’s heart sank to the depths.
Qin Hai and the Demon Clan’s Supreme did not move, and neither did the other warriors.
By now, neither side can gain any advantage over the other.
These four members of the Dragon Clan might not be the strongest. However, the Dragon Clan’s attack and defense capabilities are notoriously terrifying; if a real battle were to break out, it would become a major problem.
“Then let’s each rely on our own abilities once we enter the passage.” Qin Hai said casually, sheathing his battle blade.
The Supreme Demon Lord also nodded and said, “Good. There are many palaces here; there won’t be any fighting over them.”
They cannot defeat humanity, and one hour is far from enough to end the battle.
The passage was wide, allowing the crowd to run through it side by side without colliding.
Let’s see whose hands are faster.
Time passed second by second, and everyone’s heart was racing.
Lu Yu glanced at Zhang Yong out of the corner of his eye. This human’s memory seemed to be recovering. Then, what about the rules here? Would they also be restored?
If Zhang Yong ever opens his mouth, this would be the consequence.
“Don’t act recklessly, focus your attention. Leave the rest to me,” the old man whispered beside Lu Yu.
“Okay,” Lu Yu nodded.
The time is drawing closer, and the light cover at the passage has started to become blurry.
“Ten!” came the voice of the countdown from the sky.
A shiver ran through everyone’s hearts as they speculated that this was the countdown to the complete opening of the passage.
But why the countdown?
Zhang Yong’s eyes became increasingly hazy, as if he were recalling something.
Time passed second by second, and soon it reached “two”!
Zhang Yong suddenly shouted with a burst of sharp light in his eyes, “Guard the passage! This time, we can only take out one item——”
“Earth King Seal!” The old man suddenly roared. His body instantly grew to a height of three zhang, and his cloth robe began to tear inch by inch as iron-like muscles rippled with power.
Boom!
The entire land and sky darkened; from the void of nothingness, it seemed as if countless mountains were crashing down upon everyone.
Bang!
Zhang Yong was instantly crushed into a pulp of blood.
“One!” The countdown began again in the sky, and the light had already become very faint.
“Ahh!” The warriors of the demon and humanoid races tensed their muscles in an instant.
The mountains of nothingness still pressed down on them, causing their bones to emit a闷响 like they were about to shatter.
Qin Hai and the Demon Clan’s Supreme Leader were well-prepared in advance, as if they had known that the old man or Lu Yu would surely launch an attack.
They ignored the great mountains on their backs, and in an instant, both of their attacks were directed at Lu Yu and the old man.
“Go back to the past!”
The old man swung his hand hard, striking Lu Yu’s back. The force sent Lu Yu flying forward toward the passageway.
At the same time, the old man’s other hand struck out into the empty space!
Snap!
The dozens of feet long rift in front of him turned completely dark.
The crack created by the Devil Clan’s Supreme Being was blocked, and the light from Qin Haixing’s artifact slashed into the darkness as well.
“Lu Yu, I’ve long suspected something was wrong with the passage, yet you still wanted to take it for yourself.” The snake warrior, clad in the King Zun armor, surged forward alongside Lu Yu toward the passage, unimpeded by the mountain’s oppressive force.
Qin Hai roared, “Block Lu Yu! Don’t let him守住 the passage!”
Zhang Yong did not finish his sentence.
Something like that, need I say more?
One item, only one can be taken out from the palace, and there is only one chance.
The side that holds the passage will be the winner.
Lu Yu and the snake man almost reached the entrance of the passage at the same time.
Boom, boom!
At the same time, both of them launched their attacks.
The starlight above Lu Yu stirred, and a multitude of stars cascaded down from the sky.
Bang!
The snake man was knocked flying.
The Supreme Demon King has also arrived.
After the first strike failed to hold Lu Yu and the elder in place, he immediately turned around and threw a punch into the void, attempting to kill Lu Yu with a powerful blow.
Boom!
Lu Yu’s fist also struck into the void.
In an instant, two forces collided in the void, their impact creating infinite cracks that clashed with each other. A terrifying fissure, as if splitting the heavens and the earth apart, stretched from the sky to the ground!
“Haha!” the old man couldn’t help but burst into laughter: “Lu Yu, stop them.”
“That’s impossible.”
The demon clan did not believe it.
How could Lu Yu alone possibly hold this passage? His enemies are none other than a King and a King Ancestor!
Has Lu Yu gone crazy!
