The man brought forth from the Sea of Blood appeared to be around twenty-four or twenty-five years old. He had a handsome appearance, but there was a sinister air between his brows, and his demeanor was extremely arrogant.
But what matters most is——
When Lu Yu stood up and shouted the name “Lu Tianming,” people around noticed that there was indeed a striking resemblance between Lu Yu and Lu Tianming in their eyebrows and eyes.
The person called Lu Tianming had just noticed Lu Yu and, looking quite surprised, smiled and said, “Lu Yu, never thought I’d see you here, you little rascal!”
A terrifying murderous intent suddenly surged from Lu Yu’s body as he sternly shouted, “Your tongue is too filthy—you’re asking for death!”
Boom!
Lu Yu took a step forward, and in that moment, boundless fighting spirit surged forth.
A sky filled with murderous intent and astonishing fighting spirit converged into one, like a vast ocean surging towards Lu Tianming!
Xie Ming originally intended to teach Lu Tianming a lesson, but at this moment, he suddenly stopped, turned his gaze toward Lu Yu, and wore a strange expression!
The Slayer Demon Lord also rose to his feet. His blood-red eyes, resembling swirling vortexes of blood, locked onto Lu Yu as he said in a deep voice, “Such formidable killing intent! It’s actually even stronger than that of a peak eighth-grade ferocious beast. To not use your full strength against me… how arrogant of you!”
Just now, the Demon Lord of Slaughter unleashed a surge of killing intent that shattered Lu Yu’s defensive aura in an instant.
They thought Lu Yu was only capable of such carnage.
At the sight of him right now, he couldn’t help but feel a bit startled.
This fighting spirit and killing intent surged not just one or two times more than before, but nearly ten times greater.
If Lu Yu had released his full killing intent just now, it could have at least momentarily resisted his assault, rather than collapsing instantly.
But Lu Yu did not do so; he was not only ignoring the Demon Lord’s existence but also openly defying the Demon Lord’s authority.
Yet Lu Yu, who seemed indifferent even when facing the Demon Lord, suddenly attacked an ordinary person with the intensity of a bitter enemy, as if they harbored an unyielding vendetta.
The Blood Sea Demon Lord, seeing Lu Yu’s defiant stance and the complete lack of respect in his eyes, roared in fury: “You’re asking for death!”
Lu Tianming stood still, watching Lu Yu with a look of arrogant disdain, as if observing a monkey. He had known it would be this way all along.
As Lu Yu took his first step forward, his hands had already clenched into fists, and his entire body had tensed up.
Including the Demon Lord, everyone present had the illusion that Lu Yu was no longer just an ordinary person.
The figure bending there resembles more of a beast than a man.
Lu Tianming did not lift a finger, not even the slightest movement.
But the Blood Sea Demon Lord suddenly moved, leaving everyone puzzled about what was really happening?
What exactly is Lu Tianming’s skill that makes the Blood Sea value him so much!
Boom!
As the Blood Sea Demon Lord’s fist moved, the immense power of the blood sea surged violently from his punch.
Above the blood-red sea of the mine, the sky stretched wider and broader as the blood sea surged forward.
From the initial width of less than a zhang on the fist, it expanded to dozens of zhang, hundreds of zhang wide!
A sea of blood flooded the heavens and earth, surging toward Lu Yu in rolling waves.
“Xuehai, if you want to kill my men, who will take responsibility for entering the Dragon’s Nest!”
Huang Ying’s expression turned icy cold. With a sharp, cold shout, he raised his hand and swept it forward.
Between her palms, countless beams of blue light surged forth, like a vast blue ocean colliding with a sea of blood.
Two mighty forces collided in the air, sending shockwaves that seemed to tear through heaven and earth, collapsing countless structures within a radius of thousands of meters around the mine.
This is a battle between the Lords of Demonhood. Each casual strike is earth-shattering, and even the residual shockwaves are powerful enough to annihilate any human present!
Gao Hong, Yang Lin, and others all had their faces change color at once.
Although they already knew the Demon Lord was powerful before he brought them here.
However, becoming this powerful was truly something no one could have anticipated!
The Demon Lord could annihilate them hundreds or even thousands of times with just a wave of his hand!
After the clash between Huang Ying and Xue Hai, they were both ready to strike again.
At this moment, the demon lords such as Sha Lu and Xie Ming stepped forward together, blocking the two sides.
Xie Ming’s voice turned cold as he said, “Enough. If you humans want to settle your grudges, wait until you’ve left the Dragon’s Nest. As for the conflicts between the Demon Lords, if you insist on fighting, at least wait until you’re out of here. Do you plan to fight forever?”
Sha Lu nodded and said, “That’s right. The two of you humans should keep your quarrels in check and behave yourselves.”
With several great demon lords intervening at the same time, this battle truly cannot break out.
Huang Ying also grabbed Lu Yu, pulling him back and saying, “Whatever grudges you have, you’ll have your chance inside.”
Lei Hong stared at Lu Yu, his voice low and heavy: “Just now, I heard that man say your name is Lu Yu. Are you really the one from Nanjing City?”
Liu Xing’s expression shifted slightly. Observing Lu Yu’s appearance, he inhaled sharply through his teeth and exclaimed, “It’s actually him!”
Yang Lin trembled with shock and said, “That madman from Nanjing City—he’s actually come here too!”
Originally, they wouldn’t have deigned to spare a second glance at someone tagging along beside a spineless young master of the demonic sect.
But at this moment, they dared not show the slightest negligence. Because they knew, they had encountered a formidable opponent this time!
A year ago, the events that had taken place in Nanjing had already spread across the Monster Hunting Plains.
Challenging the military, gaining the allegiance of nine top experts, and fighting against ten thousand soldiers single-handedly—each of these feats is deemed impossible to accomplish.
And Lu Yu actually completed it all by himself!
More importantly, he monopolized the mines in Nanjing by himself and even established rules prohibiting soldiers from entering.
Such audacity, such arrogance—it has been so bold that even the military has not dared to respond directly to this day!
He was alone, without any helpers, yet he monopolized the mine by himself, and no one dared to challenge him!
How could such a powerful figure end up following such a weak and cowardly devil lord? What’s going on here?
Given Lu Yu’s personality, even a colossal entity like the military dared to challenge him. How could he possibly fear the Demon Lord’s threats!
Or rather, what exactly did the Shadow of Desolation promise Lu Yu that would convince such an expert to take action? It’s certainly not easy to have someone of his caliber intervene.
Gao Hong and others looked particularly solemn, and the pressure on them became immense.
The atmosphere had also changed somewhat this time, and even the Demon Lord noticed the shift in the expressions of the humans around him.
You should know that these people are not the kind who would easily bow down. Each of them is a powerful human with considerable strength and immense pride.
If only one or two people value Lu Yu, it merely indicates that Lu Yu poses some level of threat.
However, when everyone’s expression changed, it was no longer just a simple matter of some threats!
Entering the dragon’s lair was precisely to obtain what was inside. Such a major threat would pose a significant obstacle to their obtaining the item; they must understand exactly how dangerous this person was!
Xie Ming looked at the person beside him and asked, “Who is Lu Yu? Is he famous?”
The man looked at Lu Yu solemnly and nodded, saying, “Indeed!”
The person briefly described what Lu Yu had done in Nanjing City about a year ago.
This time, even the Demon Lords such as Xue Hai and Xie Ming began to scrutinize Lu Yu carefully.
The Night Demon said in a deep voice: “I seem to have heard of this person before. Just now, looking at his aura of killing intent and fighting spirit, he’s quite impressive!”
Good job!
Very good!
One word’s difference, yet it represents a very high evaluation from the Demon Lord towards humanity.
Sha Lu nodded, his voice low and heavy: “I’ve also heard reports from one of my subordinates about this person. In the bloody battle at Nanjing, he fought against ten thousand alone and never tasted defeat!”
Someone known even to the Night Demon and the God of Slaughter—this person caused even Xie Ming and others to feel secretly astonished.
Lu Yu, single-handedly, slaughtered ten thousand opponents of similar cultivation levels, a feat that even a Devil Monarch would find extremely challenging when facing adversaries of the same level.
Moreover, there are also many experts among them whose strength is close to Lu Yu’s!
If that’s the case—
Even the demon lords present could not guarantee how many people could accomplish it.
Lu Yu’s strength alone is likely enough to kill even those humans who have just recently reached the eighth level of Star Soul.
At first, they had looked down on Lu Yu’s strength because he hadn’t even reached the peak of the seventh level. But now, they felt that they were in big trouble!
This level of strength seemed to be slightly superior to that of Gao Hong and others. At the very least, in one stage, Lu Yu could surpass all the other people present.
Moreover, in just a few years since the apocalypse began, he had already reached such a level of strength. It was not just about power, but more about innate talent.
In the dragon’s lair, such a person goes even further.
Xie Ming coldly said, “Huang Ying, I never expected you to find such a human.”
The Night Demon’s eyes gleamed with a smirk beneath his dark robe as he said, “Lu Yu, if you’re willing to help me, I can give you three cities. Whether you desire women or wealth, I can provide them all.”
The night demon suddenly started poaching people. Huang Ying looked at Lu Yu with an anxious expression.
Xie Ming also said, “Since the Night Demon Lord values this person so highly, it seems I can’t let him go either. Human, as long as you’re willing to help me, I guarantee that even if darkness once again descends upon this world, you will survive until the next civilization.”
“Hiss!” The remaining demon lords all inhaled sharply through their teeth.
This promise is indeed very tempting. Letting Lu Yu live until the next darkness arrives means that Xie Ming must continue to protect him all along.
Huang Ying looked nervously at Lu Yu.
Suddenly, she became afraid that Lu Yu would agree to someone else’s request, afraid that Lu Yu wouldn’t help her!
Lu Yu remained unmoved and stared intently at Lu Tianming, saying, “I have accepted the reward from the Shadow Demon Monarch and will only help her!”
Xie Ming and the night demon sighed regretfully, their voices turning colder.
The shadowy figure turned its profile toward Lu Yu, its cheeks now tinged with a faint blush.
The Blood Sea Demon Lord looked at Lu Tianming and asked, “Do you two know each other?”
Lu Tianming sneered, “He’s just a good-for-nothing castoff from the Lu family. There’s nothing special about him.”
The Sea of Blood said, “Very well! Since you, Lu Yu, are the one who brought this trash here, you’d better not lose to him.”
Lu Tianming said, “Don’t worry. Back then, this kid never had the strength to fight back against me. Today is simply a continuation of our past battles! I’ll make sure he leaves without taking a single thing with him.”
The Night Demon said, “Enough talk. Blood Sea, open the passage now—it’s urgent!”
The various Demon Lords agreed with Blood Sea’s words.
Xue Hai took a crystal from his bosom and placed it on the ground.
Then Xuehai took out a small bottle and dropped a single drop of sapphire-blue liquid onto the crystal!
Boom!
The moment the liquid droplet fell onto the crystal, it seemed as if a dragon’s shadow burst forth from within the crystal, dashing straight toward the void.
The void trembled slightly as it was struck by the shadow of the dragon.
The dragon shadow let out a dragon’s roar, circled in the air, and once again charged toward the void.
The void trembled once again, beginning to develop a crack about a foot in length.
The impact of the dragon shadow grew increasingly rapid. After dozens of collisions, a rift was torn open in the void, measuring a zhang in length and several chi in width.
Through the cracks, a decaying odor, sealed for countless eons, seeped out!
