Armor with Ten Trillion Defense Points—
This defense value is equivalent to the upper limit of the Demon Lord’s health points.
Even Lu Yu couldn’t help but feel a bit surprised!
Such a piece of armor must not be merely about defense!
As long as he possesses one extraordinary ability, even gaining one more attribute would be enough to shake the entire world!
Even one arm of a devil king can produce ten thousand poisons; what could be obtained from five devil king corpses?
The news from Qian Hao was indeed shocking.
It will definitely cause an uproar if it gets out.
I’m afraid there will be a chaotic battle between humans and the Demon King.
It’s all for the corpse of others.
Therefore, this piece of news is indeed valuable.
After Qian Hao finished speaking, he looked at Lu Yu’s reaction and said, “Mr. Lu, do you think this piece of information is worth the corpse of a Devil King?”
“This news is worth it!” Lu Yu nodded and said, “Now you can obtain four bodies of the Demon Lord. However, you still need two more corpses. I’m quite curious to see what you will use next to make the exchange?”
Two highly toxic substances, an astonishing piece of news—each one capable of shaking the entire nation.
So next, what chips will the Celestial Organization use to make a deal?
This time, Lu Yu started to feel a bit excited!
Qian Hao cleared his throat and said very solemnly, “I’ve also brought two items. Considering your current physical condition, Mr. Lu, your body is already remarkably strong. Using this item, your body will become even tougher and more resilient. The second item can double the upper limit of your three main attributes, and this effect will never diminish—it lasts forever and improves along with your level! These two items, in exchange for four Demon Lord bodies!”
Qian Hao once again retrieved two items from his storage bead.
The first item was a cat’s eye-sized orb, with a pale blue surface. Inside, it resembled a black hole constantly swirling, as if it could suck in and devour even light itself.
The second item was a grayish-white bone, over a foot long, gleaming all over, though the glow was black rather than the grayish-white luster typically emitted by bones.
Lu Yu was moved by what Qian Hao said.
Two items—if they truly have the effects said to be true—he would exchange four Demon Sovereign bodies and six of his own for them.
The treasure is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity; if you miss it, it’s gone forever!
As for the Demon King’s physical body, there will be another chance to kill him later.
Moreover, in this world, many monsters have already grown strong enough to become Demon Lords, so hunting them down is equally viable.
The cat’s eye is named the “Star-Devouring Pearl.” Once you absorb the Star-Devouring Pearl, your body gains the ability to consume star spirit stones.
This is equivalent to the ability of the Blood Eye.
The Blood Eye consumes by eating, while the Star Devouring Pearl absorbs directly.
While absorbing the Star Spirit Stone, one’s entire body, including bones and blood vessels, would be shattered into pieces, and then the gas transformed from the Star Spirit Stone would reconnect them anew.
This process is so intense that it even reconnects the five vital organs and six腑, making it an ordeal. If one’s willpower is insufficient, a single crushing blow could drive a person insane!
The white bones have no names, only inscriptions stating that their attributes will be doubled upon careful collection.
The absorption process requires the body to be tempered by flames.
“I don’t understand. If these two items had remained within the Celestial Deity Organization, either one alone could have created a powerful expert. If used on just one person, they could have produced a warrior capable of battling a Demon Overlord. Yet now, you bring these items to me, merely to exchange for the Demon Sovereign’s body. What exactly does this mean?”
Lu Yu flipped through the two items without putting them away.
The value of the two items was higher than that of the message itself; no one would waste them for nothing, just to exchange for a few corpses.
Qian Hao smiled and said, “Some things aren’t necessarily good to hold onto. Even if we created one or two experts, we might not be able to control them. Besides, our needs are different. There are certain organizational secrets I cannot disclose, matters I myself don’t inquire about. However, since we’ve decided to make this deal, we definitely won’t suffer significant losses.”
Lu Yu looked at Qian Hao for a long time, then smiled, packed up his belongings, stood up, and said, “I’ll take the items. As for who will claim the Demon Lord’s body, that’s the question.”
As soon as the transaction was completed, Qian Hao burst into laughter and said, “I’ll just take it then. Mr. Lu certainly wouldn’t leave something so important outside—you must have it on you, right?”
Lu Yu didn’t hesitate and took out eight somewhat damaged but intact corpses from his storage bead, placing them on the table.
Qian Hao had seen plenty of corpses before, and without hesitation, he stored them into his storage pearl, saying, “Finally, I have two pieces of information, though not exactly intelligence, to offer Mr. Lu. So far, we’ve tried to collect all the cities that have become giant sinkholes with monsters reappearing. We discovered that the strength of the monsters is related to the quantity of level-nine stellar crystals extracted. The more level-nine stellar crystals that are extracted, the stronger the monsters that appear. The other piece of news is that Xi’an city has been destroyed!”
“What does it matter to me whether Xi’an city is destroyed or not?” Lu Yu asked in confusion.
“Mr. Lu, do you still remember those monsters that were released when you went to Xi’an and punched down the row of Lu family villas in front of the Tiankeng?”
“I do remember that.”
Beneath the giant sinkhole, there seems to be an even more powerful monster, but these creatures didn’t appear back then. Five days ago, the sinkhole in that city erupted once again. Millions of monsters surged out, among them ten had reached the peak star master level. According to current reports, that city has now fallen into the hands of the monsters. When a devil king approached, he was instantly torn to pieces. Another hundred-war devil master also tried to go there but was besieged. Though he barely escaped after fierce combat against millions of monsters, he appeared quite shaken. These monsters don’t seem to belong to the demon race—they appear to be from another entirely different race! Mr. Lu, if you decide to go there, you must be extremely cautious.
“Are you not affected by the Demon Lord?”
Lu Yu slightly furrowed his brow and nodded to indicate that he understood.
Lu Yu left the building, organizing the two pieces of intelligence Qian Hao had given him before, and tried to connect them with other things he knew.
“If that’s really the case, it’s truly going to be a huge mess!” Lu Yu inhaled sharply, quickening his pace as he rushed back to his domain.
Xiao Xiao has left the city, and Huo Wu is also away.
Yang Qian occasionally went out and made a few friends, which Lu Yu did not interfere with.
As long as these people do not harm Mother, everything is Mother’s freedom.
If anyone dares to harm his mother, he will pursue them to the ends of the earth without hesitation!
When Lu Yu saw his mother’s back figure on the street, a faint smile flickered at the corner of his mouth.
However, the smile on Lu Yu’s face only appeared for a second. The next moment, he resumed his cold and composed demeanor and stepped into the domain.
The effect brought by the Blood Tower is still ongoing.
During these past ten-odd days, he had a total of ten trillion of his three main attributes extracted.
The assessment of the intent to kill was rated at level eight.
After giving Liu Xing a few instructions, Lu Yu plunged headfirst into the Star Soul Stone.
Newly acquired items, if useful, must be used.
In the current domain, various grades of star spirit stones exceed one hundred million.
This was a collection of quantities gathered by over a dozen Demon Lords, almost filling up half of the domain.
These items themselves are not valuable when left unused; their true worth lies in the value they can be exchanged for!
The effect of the Star-Devouring Pearl can be enhanced by using these star stones to strengthen the body. This is the true value of the Star Spirit Stones!
After following the instructions to absorb the Star-Devouring Pearl, Lu Yu did not feel any changes in his body!
He looked around at the countless star spirits and suddenly inhaled sharply!
Boom—boom—boom—
As Lu Yu inhaled deeply, he immediately felt the changes within his body.
His body naturally generated a black hole, drawing in the surrounding air in large quantities.
The piles of star-spirit stones around him were turning into streams of starlight, pouring into his body in large quantities!
Around Lu Yu, streams of stars seemed to converge, clearly visible even in daylight.
Billions of starlights transformed into spiraling mists, resembling a tiny Milky Way rotating above the earth!
This breath alone turned nearly a million Star Spirit Stones into starlight.
In the moment the first glimmer of starlight touched the body—
Lu Yu heard a faint, crisp sound from the bones inside his body, as if something had cracked.
Even the Demon Lord found it extremely difficult to shatter the bones of the King.
However, the King’s bone was now easily cracked.
This shattering sensation jolted Lu Yu’s entire skeletal system, triggering a series of soft, crisp cracking sounds that echoed continuously within his body.
At the same time, the flesh and blood on Lu Yu’s body were also splitting open inch by inch.
Even an immortal body couldn’t close the wound.
Everything happened in an instant, before Lu Yu could even react—
Bang!
Lu Yu’s blood, flesh, and bones exploded.
His body exploded into a blood mist covering an area ten zhang in diameter!
Vroom!
The starlight around began to flow more rapidly, surging toward the blood mist, and then entire swaths of the starlight were absorbed by the crimson fog.
Blood mist shimmered with sparkling starlight, then converged toward the center.
The narrow Milky Way gradually shrank until it completely merged with the blood mist, after which the blood mist began to condense once more.
This process is very slow.
The first day was merely about creating a heart within the center of the blood mist—
Then, in the following days, the internal organs and bones were remodeled, followed by the muscles, flesh, and nerves.
This time, it took a full half month to condense!
During this time, Lu Yu’s body remained motionless, and his heart showed no sign of beating, as lifeless and devoid of vitality as if he were dead!
After the last bit of flesh and blood coalesced, Lu Yu’s heart began to tremble slightly.
Then, his heart began to beat powerfully.
Lu Yu opened his eyes, his lips trembling, his face as pale as paper!
During these past two weeks, he has lost his physical body, yet his consciousness remains in place.
He could feel the pain from every torn muscle, flesh, and nerve.
Every minute brings hundreds of tears of pain, even comparable to the agony of a slaughter completely awakening.
Such pain is truly unbearable for an ordinary person.
It took Lu Yu more than ten minutes to erase the sense of pain from his consciousness!
“It hurts, but it’s worth it!” Lu Yu took a deep breath, feeling every bit of his flesh and even his sinews and bones growing stronger.
This growth is not merely about becoming stronger, but rather about reaching a higher level of resilience.
Lu Yu tested a slight movement of his arm. The muscles in his arm felt like chunks of flesh-covered steel, capable of withstanding the impact of a colliding mountain!
Lu Yu tried to see if there were any changes in his internal energy!
“This… this is evolution—” Lu Yu’s eyes blazed with a sharp, piercing light.
Even the limit on the physical enhancement item has been unlocked!
Millions of spirit stones increased his physical strength from nineteen trillion to twenty-three trillion!
Another noticeable change was that streaks of starlight began to seep into the golden bones of the King Venerating Bone.
“The process of evolving the King’s Bone into a Star Bone is still 99% remaining!”
