Chapter 367: Starspirit Ore City

Lu Yu appeared, sword in hand, and charged alone into the beast horde.

He faced countless Sovereigns and innumerable Half-Sovereigns as if entering a realm without a soul.

They dare not say that Lu Yu possesses the strength to battle fiercely in all directions, nor the imposing presence to stand alone and hold his ground.

Lu Yu tore through the herd, making his way straight toward the mountains.

The movement of these herds is too abnormal!

Green and others entered without mentioning any obstacles here.

Moreover, if there really were herds of beasts guarding the ruins of the royal city.

Then, even if Green and others arrived, they would not be able to enter.

Therefore, Lu Yu believed that someone had already entered first, triggering the awakening of some kind of power!

As Lu Yu stepped into the herd of beasts, another figure descended from the sky and landed.

This Daoist emanated a domineering aura, as if a deity had descended into the world, radiating black light from his entire body.

“This is Qin Hai, it’s really him!” someone exclaimed, astonished and somewhat stunned.

It hadn’t been that long since they last met, yet Qin Hai’s strength had already become unfathomable to everyone.

He stepped into a domain of snakes, where thousands of serpents were instantly shattered into pieces by the tremor of his landing. Among them was even a venomous snake possessing the power of six Zun!

His steps were firm, each stride descending like the scythe of Death itself, crushing thousands, even tens of thousands, of snakes to pieces.

A group of people erupted into cheers, shouting loudly, “Long live the King of Hell; he’s simply invincible!”

This is a group of warriors from the Qin family, led by several relatives from the Qin household.

They had walked all the way here, only to find their path blocked.

Now, Qin Hai is destroying the snake swarm, paving a path for them!

Some people, upon comparing Lu Yu with Qin Hai, couldn’t help but feel astonished.

Qin Hai is the heir to the King of Hell, possessing unparalleled resources, knowledge, and even memories.

His growth was rapid, and terrifying.

Lu Yu, with his single sword, was even more domineering than Qin Hai.

When it comes to strength, no one could tell the difference between the two.

“My goodness. Lu Yu is just a modern human, yet he can rival the king of the previous civilization. If he continues to grow, who besides the king will be able to control him!”

“This is Lu Yu, the human known as the Number One in Huaxia!” a Korean person asked in broken Chinese, his eyes narrowing as runes flickered within them.

As a demon, the Parasitic Demon holds modern humans in contempt.

However, upon seeing Lu Yu, he was immediately categorized as a threat!

Just as everyone was assessing the strength of the two masters, another dark figure with bone wings on its back rushed into the other side’s group of monstrous beasts.

He concealed his aura, making it even harder for others to discern his true strength.

The Demon Ancestor’s moves became even more mysterious, each punch appearing as if it carried no force at all.

Yet each punch he threw could crush the monstrous beasts ahead within a hundred zhang, the force of his fists fierce and merciless!

“Good heavens, where did this expert come from? His punch just instantly killed at least ten top-grade strange beasts!”

“Compared to Lu Yu and Qin Hai, this man in the black robe doesn’t yield even a bit!”

Three top experts leading the way, the soldiers at the rear became even more vigorous and unstoppable, cutting down enemies and collecting the corpses of the fallen.

Lu Yu, Qin Hai, and the Devil Ancestor didn’t fly inside not because they didn’t want to.

This mountain range seemed to impose another layer of restriction, causing their flight to consume tens of millions of life force per second.

At this stage, none of the three dared to be too arrogant.

After all, no one knows what’s inside, so we must conserve our strength!

As a result, upon landing, he became the vanguard for others.

However, all three of them were unafraid of being followed by these people.

All three wanted to be the first to step into the ruins of the royal city and reach its center.

The group of three faced not only the monsters pouring out of the mountains, but also wave after wave of monstrous hordes blocking their path within the maze of interconnected peaks—one entire mountain range was filled with relentless opposition!

Lu Yu couldn’t even remember how many monsters he had killed.

More than thirty Overlords have died by his sword.

In order to save time, Lu Yu showed no mercy with his sword, leaving not a single corpse intact.

The power of hunting continued to accumulate, and the blade of slaughter within his body was constantly being nourished.

Each blade of carnage was greedily absorbing the energy provided by the hunt, growing stronger with every moment.

The Level 5 Blade of Slaughter begins its assault toward Level 6!

What Lu Yu wanted wasn’t a Level 9 star soldier, but an even more powerful one!

In the mountains, every step can be said to be arduous.

Lu Yu, Qin Hai, and the Devil Ancestor couldn’t help but frown.

The deeper one goes, the greater the resistance they face.

However, none of the three would yield to the others, each vying for time.

More than 80,000 people had followed behind the three individuals and entered.

They looked at the three figures ahead, their eyes filled with nothing but reverence, words failing them completely.

The Supreme was as easy for the three of them to handle as cutting grass.

The supreme power shattered the bonds of the Earth; it’s too terrifying here!

Tens of thousands of monsters, thousands of semi-Sovereign-level beings—if such forces were to appear on Earth, they could absolutely flatten any nation.

Now gathered here, they are merely the souls of the deceased, struck down by the casual blows of three individuals!

Someone calculated in their mind, their voice trembling as they said, “Does this mean that the strength of the three of them is already enough to rival an entire nation?”

When such a voice spoke out, the surroundings became even more silent.

Besides the fighters, everyone else was mentally measuring the strength of the three individuals.

As for Qin Hai, there’s no need to say more.

His subordinates still had tens of thousands of Zun who had not yet awakened. A king capable of commanding tens of thousands of Zun—his strength had long been underestimated.

Hell must be one that transcends national boundaries; Qin Hai’s hell is certainly an example.

This was the first time Lu Yu had displayed such power in front of others.

The previous legends are difficult to believe and evaluate.

Seeing it with my own eyes, and comparing it, even the people of Huaxia themselves have cold bodies.

A Huaxia warrior stood there, stunned and blank-minded, saying: “Does this mean that if Lu Yu wants to overthrow a nation, no nation can withstand Lu Yu’s power?”

“This, this can’t be!” A foreigner nearby, who understood a bit of Chinese, quickly grasped the soldier’s meaning and felt his blood run cold.

Not only this foreigner, but many Chinese people also felt their blood running cold.

As long as Lu Yu is willing, with his current strength, he can establish a nation at any moment!

“No matter how powerful he is, he’s still just one person,” someone gritted their teeth and said, “What are you afraid of? He’s just a nation of one man.”

Someone cursed, “Have you gone crazy or become an idiot? Are Lu Yu’s more than three hundred soldiers fake? Is the billions of wealth in Lu Yu’s hands fake? He also possesses the world’s only Star Soul mine that produces Star Blossoms and controls over sixty percent of the world’s Star Warrior resources. With all this, how can you not be afraid?”

No one spoke anymore.

If Lu Yu truly had ambitions, the entire world would tremble in fear.

After all, if Lu Yu wants to dominate with ambition, he might soon reach a critical point against Wang Yi.

Boom!

The last mountain range has been crossed.

A look of awe once again appeared in everyone’s eyes.

Lu Yu squinted his eyes, unable to believe what he was seeing.

Qin Hai and the Devil Ancestor’s eyes shone with an unprecedented brilliance.

Qin Hai murmured softly to himself, “This is truly the ruins of the royal city. Such a massive city—only a truly terrifying creature could have destroyed it completely!”

On the other side, the Devil Ancestor murmured softly, “Could the legend I’ve heard actually be true? Is there really a King who built such a massive city on the Monster Hunting Plains? How far has his power truly expanded?”

Before the crowd lay a scene of utter ruin.

But these ruins were anything but ordinary.

At the foot of the mountain where everyone stood, there lay the ruins of an ancient city wall.

The collapsed city wall still faintly bears traces of its former grandeur; even after its fall, it remains nearly a hundred meters high.

As for strengths—

Anyway, standing on the mountain peak, you can see all the way to the horizon’s edge, which is at least a thousand miles away, yet you still cannot see the end of the city wall.

Just by looking at this city, one can get a sense of how vast these ruins truly are.

Its existence on Earth is nothing short of a miracle.

The most astonishing thing for people was that the materials used in these shattered city walls, even in the structures within the ruins after being crushed, were all made of star-spirit ore.

That’s right, it’s Star Spirit Ore!

The city wall and houses were built with numerous pieces of star spirit stones, each cut and stacked with remarkable precision.

Now, none of these star spirit stones emit a shining starlight.

However, someone could observe from the cut surface that the star spirit stones within were slightly different from those found in mines.

It’s a pity that the Star Spirit Stone has lost its energy.

Everyone’s scalp tingled, and they secretly called him a spendthrift.

This city is outrageously large. To build it, it would take countless mines like the 6,000-meter one owned by Lu Yu.

Others would be laughing with joy at having just one.

And here, the king built a city with the mine.

Everyone knew that the Star Spirit Ore was incredibly hard before being mined, and no one could destroy it.

Now they understand that the reason for the shock is that the city did not collapse naturally, but was destroyed.

Destroying the city built with Starstone ore, what kind of monster is this!

Ordinary people are using their own methods to make guesses.

However, the Demon Ancestor and Qin Hai had their own thoughts.

King has a more detailed understanding of the Demon Hunting Plains.

They knew how incredibly difficult it would be to build a city here.

Just like the ruins after entering the light gate, it’s only about a tenth of that ruin.

On the very first day of its establishment, the city began to suffer attacks from the living creatures of this plain.

The attacks have never ceased, not for a single day, hour, or moment.

It took at least a hundred years to build the city, during which only one king reigned, and only after a hundred years was the city finally completed.

Countless demon apes perished in the middle.

That’s how hard it was to build just one city at a single entry point on the plain!

To build a city in such a remote and rugged region, the king of that time must have possessed extraordinary power and influence!

Everyone’s thoughts were merely fleeting like lightning, one idea after another arising in their minds.

Then—

Countless people rushed into the ruins.

Lu Yu moved!

The Demon Ancestor has moved!

Qin Hai also sprang into action!

The three of them leaped into the city in a single bound.

As they leaped over the city wall and set foot into the ruins, the sky above the entire city instantly changed its hue.

The originally clear sky turned into a star-filled night sky.

Boom!

Amidst the ruins of buildings, an aura of supreme power erupted.

Then the ruins exploded, and a battered beast bone stood up from the rubble, rushing toward the Demon Ancestor.

“Using the light of stars to empower these corpses and turn them into puppets to guard the city?” said the Devil Ancestor, and with a single raise of his hand, he split the beast’s bone in two.

The power of the beast bone is too weak; it’s less than half that of a Half-Zhizun!

Qin Hai narrowed his eyes and said, “It seems the people who entered first didn’t obtain the treasure within the city. They merely accidentally activated the city’s defense system. I’ve set up similar methods before. Unfortunately, such techniques are useless against me!”

As the two were talking, a group of people from the other side burst into laughter.

A man held up a wrist guard with trembling hands and said, “This is a component of the armor, an undamaged one at that. Just this single piece increases defense by five hundred trillion points!”

“Ahh!”

“Is this true?”

“Treasure, the entire city is nothing but treasure!”
