Chapter 114: Escape and Gains (1)

The strongest ability of the Brahamin Clan is the Quaking of the Yellow Spring!

The ability to stand out, even rise, among the demon clan was precisely due to the trembling of Huangquan (the underworld).

But the greatest secret and most powerful ability was the method of summoning the Yellow Springs Blade.

The ancestor who created the Yellow Spring Quake could, at the third level, instantly summon up to four thousand blades of the Yellow Spring Quake.

After that, even the strongest individual, when the Third Yellow Spring trembled, could command no more than one thousand eight hundred Yellow Spring Blades simultaneously.

Mobilize more blades of the Yellow Spring; this is the secret of the Brahma clan.

“Heavenly Fan, for the sake of victory, you’ve actually revealed your clan’s greatest secret to the humans,” Tu Xue roared in anger, unable to accept this reality.

“I didn’t give him anything; I merely granted him the ability to tremble through the Yellow Spring.” Brahma was equally astonished, finding it unbelievable as well.

Because the abilities Lu Yu demonstrated were truly astonishing.

How could someone who doesn’t possess the secret of the trembling Yellow Spring possibly reach such a level!

The trembling of Huangquan is not only due to its immense power, but even more so because of the secret behind commanding the Blade of Huangquan, which is even more mysterious and formidable.

“Did you figure out the secret all by yourself?” asked the Eastern Demon Lord, sitting there. “This human has certainly surprised us.”

Huáng Yǐng said, “Alright, since the person from Fan Tian won, the remaining eight can now proceed to the second round of voting. Even if Fan Tian truly gave the secret to this human, it’s still within the rules.”

“Alright, let’s proceed to the second round then.” Tu Xue was angry, but everything was still within the established rules, so there was nothing inappropriate about it.

“Lo Hai, get up there and draw your lot now!” Huang Ye was urging Lo Hai to hurry up.

“Understood, I understand,” Luo Hai said with a beaming smile, then quickly ran onto the altar. He coughed once and continued in a serious tone: “Please, the eight of you, come onto the stage and proceed with the second round of drawing lots. Those who draw group one and group two will be the next to battle!”

Someone glanced at Lu Yu, and after witnessing the astonishing scene just now, they thought it would be best to avoid him.

The remaining eight were evenly distributed, with each of the four Demon Lords having two left.

The wilderness and the bloodshed each sent one representative, yet the devil king sitting in the east indeed drew lots for both of them.

The one-armed man, the Eastern Demon Lord, has fallen in battle!

One person died in the bloody battle.

Finally, when the blue flames on the altar turned into ten clusters.

All four Demon Lords stood up.

“Haha, finally finished!” Tu Xue laughed loudly, “Now it’s time to start the next step!”

The Eastern Demon Lord laughed loudly and said, “Vasant, this time you’re very lucky to have obtained two spots. However, everything still depends on luck within the Domain of Unified Demons.”

“Giggle, giggle, what are you waiting for? Since it’s already started, what else is there to wait for?”

Tu Xue and the Eastern Demon King suddenly let out a loud roar, their excitement and madness shattering the black robes on their bodies as they fiercely shouted, “The Blood Sacrifice begins!”

The two great demon lords were bare-chested, wearing only short animal-hide pants. Their fingernails and toenails curved like eagle talons, and the crimson spiral patterns truly covered their entire bodies, resembling two distinct mystical designs!

“The Demon Gate is open!” Huangye and Fantian roared towards the sky!

Boom!

From the bodies of the four Demon Lords, bursts of chilling demonic energy erupted.

Pitch-black demonic energy surged into the sky, splitting the heavens above the mine into four gaping wounds, like four sharp swords.

“Every demon soldier, heed my command! Slay all the living within this city and offer their blood as sacrifice!” The voice of the Four Great Demon Lords pierced through the cracks in the air and resonated into the void.

“Kill!”

From the four great rifts, countless Blood Demon Bears and demonic soldiers leaped out, roaring as they charged toward the four directions of the city.

“What’s going on here?” Luo Hai was taken aback.

This city is his, after all.

“Lord Demon Kings, what are you doing? Didn’t you give this city to me? Why… why are you doing this?” Luo Hai still couldn’t wrap his head around the situation.

“This world simply doesn’t have any place where you can live in peace!” Lu Yu sneered.

From the moment he first saw the altar, he had a suspicion of what it might be.

“I’ve said it before, your position is something we gave you. So when we decide to take it back, we will take it back naturally,” Hei Ying said with a chuckle. “Luo Hai, how could humans and demons ever coexist peacefully? We gave you this neutral city precisely to attract more people.”

Tu Xue continued, “The more people living in this city, the higher the level of the Demon Lord’s domain. So, everything we’ve given you is merely to make you serve us as a dog just once.”

Luo Hai trembled, standing still like a statue, his smile frozen on his face. Suddenly, he burst into laughter again, a despicable, shameless grin, as he said, “Yes, yes, I’m just a dog belonging to the four of you. If you wish, I can build another middle-class city for you, and help you raise even more people. Esteemed sirs, what do you think of your dog here?”

Huáng Yǐng laughed and said, “A lowly dog like you—how many do you think we can find? But the final key to opening the altar of demons is your soul. You caught on quickly, trying to escape by becoming a dog, but unfortunately, your fate was sealed the moment you became the city lord.”

“No, please don’t!” Luo Hai immediately felt desperate and turned to run away at this moment.

“You think you can escape?” Lu Yu might not be able to save the dead, but he could certainly ensure that this person, who had abandoned all dignity, would not get away.

“Although I’m not a good person either. But I find it a disgrace to humanity that someone like you is allowed to live.” The young boy under Huang Ying’s command kicked Luo Hai onto the altar.

“No, no!” Luo Hai wanted to move.

But at this moment, suddenly nine dark shadows extended from the stone altar and grabbed Luo Hai.

” Luo Hai, come down. We’re all dead, do you still want to escape?”

“My curse has worked. I’m waiting for you.”

The dozens of people brought by Luo Hai didn’t even have a chance to move before being turned into bloodied pulp by a mere wave of Huang Ying’s hand, the force of which sent a powerful gust of wind crashing into them.

The screams coming from all around the mine rose and fell in succession, reminding Lu Yu and the others of the day when the apocalypse would come.

The sky was a sea of blood red. Each time someone died, a beam of red light shot down from the sky and poured into the altar.

Clusters of red light, resembling raindrops of blood, rose from the urban landscape in all directions and then converged toward the altar.

Sinking into the altar along with the shower of light.

The two blood snakes on the altar began to move, as if a millstone was grinding all the bloodlight into blood.

The crimson lights gradually converged above the altar, eventually coalescing into the illusory image of a door.

“I helped you win the spot; can you leave now?” Lu Yu clenched his fists, his voice turning colder!

These people who live in comfort, whether they live or die has nothing to do with him.

However, it was nothing short of a massacre.

This was a metropolis of millions, a beautiful city just hours ago, now turned into hell.

Brahma said, “It’s not over yet. You all still need to survive and come out of the Demon King’s domain before you can be free!”

“What?”

“It’s not over yet. Do you really want all of us to die before you’ll be satisfied?” someone finally couldn’t hold back any longer.

Tu Xue snorted. “Hmph. You can try leaving right now if you’d like. Let’s see if you can actually make it out.”

No one spoke anymore.

Because the aura of light from these four demon cultivators had already suppressed them to the point of being unable to take a single step, they had no chance of putting up a fight.

The blood sacrifice lasted for two days and two nights, and the Blood Gate became increasingly real—though it resembled a thick, heavy stone door that remained tightly closed.

The four dragon shadows intertwined and coiled on the Blood Gate, causing Tu Xue and the others to become thrilled.

“It’s a Level 4 Unified Magic Field!” the Eastern Magic Lord exclaimed in delight. “I never expected that in today’s world, even a random city could activate a Level 4 Unified Magic Field.”

After the last person in the city, including Lu Yu, was killed, the thick blood-red gate began to slowly open, releasing a breath of decay that had accumulated over ten thousand years.

“Go in!” Brahma lightly patted Lu Yu and Liu Qing on the back, saying, “If you can survive and come out this time, you will truly be free.”

“Go in.” Tu Xue also pointed at his own elite guards and nodded toward the Blood Gate.

“Damn it, you guys really are ruthless,” Lu Yu gritted his teeth and looked at Liu Qing.

Liu Qing nodded at Lu Yu and then took his hand, rushing into the Blood Gate together.

One step into darkness, one step into desolation!

The moment Lu Yu and Liu Qing stepped through the Blood Gate, they found themselves surrounded by rows of stone mountains. These mountains stretched endlessly, resembling a coiled and slumbering giant serpent.

At this point, Liu Qing said, “Don’t interrupt. Listen to me. The Domain of the Overlord isn’t actually the demons’ territory; it contains many unknown treasures and lost abilities. Deep within the stone mountains lies the Grand Hall of the Overlord, a place only we are qualified to enter. The demon race wants us to enter that hall to search for the things they desire. Therefore, every living person on the altar represents a qualification.”

Lu Yu didn’t care how Liu Qing knew all this.

But in an instant, a cold gleam flashed in his eyes.

At this moment, Brahma also stepped in with one stride.

“The Yellow Spring trembled!”

A cold, electric-like gleam suddenly shot from Lu Yu’s eyes, piercing straight into Fan Tian’s body.

Boom!

The black stone land reappeared around them.

Beneath the Black Stone大地, countless hands of the Yellow Spring transformed into spears, launching an attack on Braham.

Bang!

“Mortal, you dare attack me!” Brahma realized at once when he saw the blade of Yama rushing toward him.

Letting out a furious roar, he swung his hand toward the Blade of the Yellow Spring.

Two thousand Huangquan Blades shattered instantly; this wasn’t even a battle of the same level.

Boom!

The earth suddenly trembled as countless blades of the Yellow Spring gathered beneath the black stone.

“What, five thousand swords!”

Brahma was genuinely surprised this time.

His awareness swept over them in an instant, and he already had a clear count!

The trembling of the third level of Yellow Spring is actually capable of mobilizing five thousand Yellow Spring Blades; this person has surpassed his progenitor.

Bang!

Five thousand blades of Yellow Spring, with flames erupting from one-fifth of the spears.

Lu Yu detonated almost all of the first- and second-grade Star Spirit Beads he had accumulated over the past two months at Fanggang.

Blazing flame spirits exploded one after another beside Fan Tian.

At the same time, Lu Yu’s hands moved sharply, sending ten Dragon’s Spine Needles mixed among the long spears piercing into Fan Tian’s body.

“What? You actually killed the young Poison Dragon Demon!”

The voice of Brahma became sharp.

Boom!

In the explosion, the ground beneath his feet was instantly engulfed in black stone for dozens of kilometers.

“Die! I want your Poison Dragon power!” shouted Brahma furiously.

Beneath the earth, hundreds of thousands, even millions of blades from the Yellow Spring surged upward. It was simply a world of spears, with every weapon unleashing power strong enough to make the void tremble.

Lu Yu scooped up Liu Qing in one swift motion and said, “Hold on tight to me.”

“Silver Dragon, possess me!”

Lu Yu let out a fierce shout, his entire body covered in fine, silvery dragon scales. Behind him, a phantom dragon’s shadow coiled and danced.

He exerted force with both feet and dashed toward the distant mountains.

“Plus the ability of the silver dragon!”梵天 was taken aback, frightened by Lu Yu’s capabilities.

This person has actually been hiding these abilities all along—what a devious mind!
