Chapter 401 The Three-Phase Undying Realm! The Living Holy City! Slaying Dragons with a Flick of the Finger! A Shocking Reversal!
After he finished speaking, the entire room fell silent.
Everyone stared at the distorted figure in the sky, feeling a sense of powerlessness as if their lives were beyond their control.
Finally, Cui Han broke the silence, her expression worried as she asked, "Lu...Lu Yu, are you really alright?"
"I'm fine..." Lu Yu murmured softly, speaking in a clear and organized manner.
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions brightened with joy.
Thankfully, they can communicate, which means there's still hope!
Many powerful figures in the human race began searching for treasures they carried that could stabilize their spirituality.
Even at great cost, we must keep Huang Mao safe and find a way to rescue him once we enter Tianzhou City.
As long as he's there
This exploration of the ruins is definitely going to be a success!
"Lu Yu!!!"
The Tai Sui of Calamity, held in the dragon's claw by Cang Yun, had arrived at the top of a pyramid. It stared at Lu Yu with venomous eyes, about to speak, when it heard the other continue:
"This is... better than ever before!"
At this moment, light and shadow intertwined, nine pairs of wings stretched out behind him, each a kilometer long, and the "halo" behind his head became increasingly deep, swallowing the light and forming a dark sun, with only golden light burning at the edge.
Like the sun during a celestial eclipse, its last remaining rays of light...
It is His mercy to the world.
Click click click!
His flesh and blood began to turn into ashes and drift away, twisting into light and shadow, overlapping into a huge black and red heart, embedded in his chest cavity. The many light bands that replaced his legs on his lower body continued to extend, like long legs of the sun trampling on all living beings, or like tentacles for hunting.
boom!
During this transformation, a vast and chaotic aura emanated from its body, transforming into scorching air currents that swept across the land, turning the entire ruins space into a sauna.
Even breathing caused a burning, stinging pain, and some of the beast king's alien beasts, unable to withstand it, spontaneously combusted and turned to ashes.
Some people are just born to be warm-hearted!
"..."
Seeing this, Du'e Tai Sui swallowed back all his greetings, and Cang Yun instantly became furious.
Chi Zhong silently arrived at the very back of the pyramid and shielded everyone in front of him.
The many alien geniuses looked terrified and no longer believed a word Lu Yu said.
This guy seems to have even started to distort his thinking.
It is important to understand that the biggest difference between aberrations and life is that the former has been completely distorted, its spirituality reversed, and it has changed from stability to chaos and disorder, just like the spirituality in the primordial spiritual sea.
The physical bodies of earthly beings cannot adapt to such a high concentration of spirituality.
Every time it is used, it is actually overloaded and will tear the body apart. The reason it is fine is only because it relies on the powerful vitality after the mutation to repair itself.
For example, a disposable paper cup, when torn and gradually thinned, becomes a low-quality bucket. Although it may seem to have increased capacity, it is also more prone to developing holes.
If it leaks, just plug it up directly. As long as the body can still function, the aberration won't bother with it.
The next time it's used, it will tear again, become clogged again, and this process will repeat endlessly.
This is why most aberrations look bloated and ugly, because their consciousness is gradually being extinguished.
In the end, all that remains is the instinct to hunt, destroying everything that comes into view.
Unlike otherworldly beings, they are products of miracles, blessed by the Mother River. As long as they fulfill the corresponding rules, they can possess unlimited power.
For example, the Black Lantern Anomaly of Dream Bubble can become infinitely stronger as long as all living beings in the world believe it is powerful, provided that its lies are not exposed.
Otherwise, you'll be brought back to square one!
For example, Smiling Corpse Mountain can grow infinitely stronger by devouring corpses, transforming into a corpse planet or even a corpse universe.
This process transforms paper cups into infinitely expandable, high-tech cups.
However, the balance of the mother river is the fundamental law governing all things, and therefore it also imposes a limitation on them, which is...
time!
In theory, given enough time to complete the corresponding rules, an anomaly can ascend to kingship without any bottlenecks, or even become a god!
However, due to the existence of Abnormalities, they are the best prey and it is almost impossible for them to grow to the end.
Although Lu Yu's mutation looks different from ordinary mutations, in their view, it should be a fusion of fragments of the laws of the mysterious ancient king and that mysterious chariot, evolving towards an angelic form.
It just failed.
So they remained silent. Once the path to sainthood regained its brilliance, they could still enter Tianzhou City. There was no need to argue with a "dead man."
However, at this moment, Lu Yu raised his head, looked at the distant Du'e Tai Sui, slowly grinned, and his head began to turn towards the light, a faint and ethereal voice came:
Was that you... calling me just now?
"Oh no!"
The moment Du'e Tai Sui met his gaze, looking at that radiant figure, he felt no warmth, but rather a chill ran down his spine.
boom!
The surrounding space was scorching, constantly scorching, creating a special vacuum environment. The immense pressure twisted and pressed down on the legs of the Tai Sui, causing him to slowly kneel down.
"I refuse to accept this! Aaaaaaaah!"
The Tai Sui of the Calamity twisted its face and let out a furious roar of resentment, but no matter how hard it tried, and countless tentacles spread from its body, it was all in vain.
The guy who once looked down on him now treats him like an ant; a single glance from him is enough to kill him!
This humiliation is more painful than death!
"Lu Yu, if you want to harm His Highness, you'd better step over my dead body first..."
Cangyun roared, shattering the oppressive aura emanating from Du'e Taisui. Knowing that the other party was not far from death, he realized that threatening him with the True King technique would be useless and would only further provoke him. It would be better to draw the hatred onto himself.
"roar!"
He roared to the sky, and countless powerful Tai Sui tentacles spread from his huge dragon body, transforming into a massive black and red mountain of flesh, which formed the [Secret Technique - Tai Sui Flesh Mountain], preparing to block it.
boom!
However, the next second, the light pierced the world, the Tai Sui flesh mountain instantly collapsed, and the huge dragon head of the Azure Dragon shattered, turning into blood and flesh fragments scattered all over the sky.
However, illuminated by the light in the sky, it vanished into nothingness.
The headless dragon body, as large as a mountain peak, fell straight down, plummeting into the River of Boundless Light below.
"Show your head and you're done, call out?"
Lu Yu's indifferent voice rang out as he appeared near Cang Yun.
Instant kill!
Everyone stared wide-eyed, unable to believe that the mountain of flesh that had blocked their all-out attack was instantly shattered in front of Lu Yu.
sizzle!
However, very soon, numerous black and red Tai Sui tentacles sprouted from the headless dragon's body, intertwining to form a skinless, bloody, and mangled dragon head, which roared:
"I will build a bridge of life for Your Highness!"
boom!
A terrifying dragon's breath gathered and was suddenly unleashed, piercing through the world.
Super-tier racial skill - Azure Dragon's Breath!
"Your bridge was definitely built with shoddy workmanship!"
Lu Yu said softly, extending a finger and lightly tapping the air.
hum!
Nine solar halos overlapped, transforming into a sacred blazing sun seal, easily blocking the dragon's breath. Before the aftershocks could even spread, they were burned away.
Bang bang bang!
The next second, Cangyun's head shattered again!
Each time it was born, it was ruthlessly crushed by Lu Yu.
It started a one-sided massacre!
If it weren't for the fact that it was made from the flesh of a top-tier, ecosystem-master-level Tai Sui, it would have died long ago.
Even now, they've become nothing more than playthings in Lu Yu's hands!
However, after being killed forty-five times, Cangyun's head reformed, but Lu Yu did not destroy it. Instead, endless bands of light wrapped around it, binding it in mid-air.
Amidst its astonished gaze, Lu Yu smiled and said:
"Your perseverance has earned my approval..."
Cangyun sneered but remained silent.
His purpose in life was to protect the Kingdom of Sui'e!
However, Lu Yu's next words instantly broke his defenses:
"However, conditions here are limited, so I'll treat you to some 'Tai Sui' meat instead!"
Before Cangyun could react, he saw the Du'e Tai Sui be ignited and turned into a human torch, struggling and emitting a fragrance.
"Stop!!!" Cangyun's eyes were bloodshot as he struggled incessantly, but he could not break free from Guanghui's tight restraint.
"Don't mention it, I'm good at dealing with people!"
Lu Yu waved his hand, then cut off the precious Tai Sui whiskers and put them away. As for the body condensed by the Heart-Stealing Locust... he found it dirty, so he reached out and cut open the dragon's belly, stuffing it into Cang Yun's stomach for digestion.
"vomit……"
Even if he wanted to vomit, he had no chance and could only watch helplessly as his stomach acid digested the body of the Calamity-Crossing Tai Sui.
In this way, Du'e Tai Sui will only have the outside world left. His last body, hiding in the Sui'e Palace, probably no longer has the qualification to condense a demon seed.
The brutality of the scene was chilling to the bone.
It is now certain that Lu Yu has almost no humanity left!
This guy has completely gone mad.
After Lu Yu finished doing all this, he turned his head and looked at the location of the other alien races, which made their scalps tingle.
Just as they were about to join forces to assassinate Lu Yu, the princes dared not hold back any longer. Even at the risk of being rejected by the spirits of the ruins, they were determined to use their trump cards to bury this guy.
However, Lu Yu ignored them and looked into the distance.
There, the Ninth Finger was pinned down by the Dark Sun Spear, its dark element almost completely burned away, and it was on the verge of death. Beside it was the Eighth Finger, who was struggling to pull out the spear.
"If I run, you chase, we'll both be trapped. You don't have to love, but don't force love!"
After sensing Lu Yu's gaze, she waved her hand, decisively abandoned the Ninth Finger and fled, letting the half-dead Void Ghost Mask carry her through the blinking space.
boom!
However, as soon as it entered the void, it was shattered by Lu Yu's punch, and the space scattered like a broken mirror, revealing a dark void turbulence.
The two guys were immediately jolted out.
The Void Mask tried to resist but was instantly killed, and the materials were collected by the little spider that had been preparing them all along.
Frugal and hardworking, never wasteful
Click!
The eighth finger had its long legs severed by the beam of light, and with a thud, it landed on the pyramid, its surface stained with blood.
The eighth finger, shaped like a stick, cupped her face with both hands, looked at Lu Yu, and said in an excited yet shy voice:
"So you like this kind of thing? You should have said so earlier, I'd be fine with it!"
Whoosh whoosh!
Before he could finish speaking, countless rays of light repeatedly pierced through his body.
Lu Yu then went to the side of the Ninth Finger.
The latter, already on the verge of death, couldn't help but exclaim, "Young man, step over my corpse and dance gracefully on the world stage!"
Discovering such a talented performer is itself a kind of...
Fun! But the next second, Lu Yu crushed his head and extracted it as material.
The second God's Finger has fallen!
The Faceless Opera House resounded with thunderous applause once more, and the blessing bestowed upon him was further completed.
Countless people are amazed that over the long years, the Faceless Brotherhood has caused heavy losses to thousands of races, yet they can only swallow their anger and fear further retaliation.
Unexpectedly, today, two of the Finger of Gods fell one after another at a ruin.
"Is this what they mean by... the wicked will always be punished by the wicked!"
This thought couldn't help but cross everyone's minds.
However, how to resolve the issue of the distorted Lu Yu is a serious problem.
Must we really resort to our trump card and bury it?
Just as they were deep in thought, Lu Yu approached the location of the eighth finger, just when they thought the third finger of the gods was about to perish.
Lu Yu stopped in mid-air and asked, "Have you had enough fun?"
"What... are you saying?" The weak voice of the Eighth Finger rang out, the "Ж" mask on his face was broken, revealing a fair face.
However, Lu Yu merely looked at the man before him and said indifferently, "Are you really the eighth finger?"
"If I'm not the eighth finger, then who am I? Could it be...?"
The eighth finger, its voice barely audible, suddenly became strong and clear. It tilted its head and said with a grin:
"Is she a busybody?"
As they spoke, the "Ж" pattern on the shattered eighth finger mask began to twist, turning into...
three!
The moment it appeared, its body split open, withering rapidly like a butterfly pupa, and from it emerged the figure of a woman with a near-perfect figure, tall and slender, with skin as white as mutton fat jade, except for her head...
It is the convergence of countless overlapping "three" symbols that constantly evolves all things.
"The third finger!" Cui Han's pupils contracted as he saw this distinctive feature and couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice.
The butcher almost had a mental breakdown.
The eighth finger was actually... the third finger in disguise?
So what about the real eighth finger?
When is it time to replace it?
"I ate it before I even went to the border for the first time. It tasted alright. I originally wanted to get along with you guys as the Eighth Finger, but I didn't expect it wouldn't work out, so I'm laying my cards on the table!" the Third Finger said leisurely, but the content made everyone's scalp tingle.
The Faceless Brotherhood truly lives up to their reputation as madmen; they even ate their own people to disguise themselves!
The third finger didn't see anything wrong with it. After all, everyone had to return to the initial chaos. It was just helping him eat it in advance, and the other party should thank it.
She looked at Lu Yu with a beaming smile, twirled around, and said with a smile, "Don't I look better this way? I can be your mistress."
As she spoke, the number "three" floated around her, easily blocking all the penetrating beams of light, demonstrating combat power that surpassed the limits of giants and approached that of an ecological master.
However, everyone understood that this was not the most terrifying thing, because the top three God's Finger techniques were different from the later ones.
They were among the three Primals who first approached the Faceless God and founded the Faceless Brotherhood.
The positions of the Finger of God have been constantly changing, but they themselves have remained unchanged...
Perhaps, even if things change, no one will know.
The third finger asked curiously, "When did you find out? Or... is it a bond between us? Tell me quickly, I'm so curious!"
Lu Yu looked at her quietly without saying a word. After all, the question marks and overlapping labels seen through the Eye of Truth made the answer all too obvious.
However, what puzzled him was...
Why didn't the third finger, which clearly possessed such power, return to its original form during the Battle of Dayuan City?
The third finger noticed Lu Yu's confusion and smiled without saying a word, because behind this lay a clash between two great beings.
Do you really think that the Corpse Emperor is powerless to resist just because he has turned into a child?
Do you really think that the Mother of Twilight only has one plan, the Daughter of Eternal Darkness?
The terror of supreme beings is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.
They are not fighting for the present, but for the future!
If they dare to show themselves, they'll only be crushed to death!
Next second,
Lu Yu's figure blurred into afterimages, and in the next instant, he appeared directly in front of the third finger, raised his hand, and a dazzling light illuminated the world.
"Distorted Solar Fist!"
hum!
It was dozens of times brighter than the previous flash spell. Even the giants who had transformed their bodies felt the intense glare and the shock to their souls from thousands of meters away.
However, the third finger remained unaffected, looking at Lu Yu with gentle eyes and chuckling softly:
"Naughty!"
The layers of three characters on his head spread out, instantly transforming into a moon mask, revealing its dark side, swallowing all the brilliance, and becoming incomparably dazzling, like a full moon rising in the sky.
The Art of Peeling Faces—The Month of Cause and Effect!
The moon exploded with a deafening roar, carrying a vast amount of spiritual energy that transformed into a burst of light, which rebounded back at Lu Yu and became the Moon Flash Technique.
This was the first time Lu Yu had ever been hit by my Flash!
The next second, Lu Yu attacked again, exchanging dozens of blows with the Third Finger in the blink of an eye.
Rumble!
The deafening roar echoed, but most of the time Lu Yu was repelled, with only a few instances of his third finger being injured by the radiance.
However, her ability is extremely strange. The three-character symbol that makes up her head seems to be able to simulate all the forces in the world and forcibly establish cause and effect to lock onto Lu Yu.
However, relying on his mutated body, Lu Yu's mutations deepened further, and his strength continued to increase.
Spiderlings, paper knights, and other pets gathered, ready to start a righteous brawl.
"This is pointless, I'm not playing with people who cheat!"
The third finger waved its hand, casually smashing a floating "three" pattern beside it, and took out half a silver pearl from it, which shimmered with light.
They actually relit the already darkened pyramid, and continued the narrow path connecting it to the City of Sky.
Seeing this, Lu Yu wanted to make a move, but he was trapped by a large number of three-character masks. Endless causal power swept over him, turning into a barrier that trapped him.
"This is……"
He tried to use his right hand, but instead used his left; he tried to move forward, but instead moved backward.
It's as if cause and effect have been reversed!
The ultimate truth—the three aspects of cause and effect!
"Akainu, let's go!"
The third finger flashed, grabbed the butcher by the neck, and charged directly towards Tianzhou City.
The butcher wanted to complain that the name was even worse than the original Blood Wolf, but considering that the guy in front of him was one of the most terrifying Three Original Fingers, he gave up struggling.
Being alive... is good enough.
Perhaps this is the salvation bestowed by a loving father!
"We can't let her land in Tianzhou City first!" Cui Han shouted. However, even without his reminder, the three major factions seized the opportunity to race ahead and began the chase.
This time, however, they did not make a move. Instead, they maintained a tacit understanding and prepared to enter the Holy City first and get rid of Lu Yu, this monster.
However, only the giants were competing for the crossing; the other geniuses were not even qualified to get close.
In other words...
They were all abandoned!
Soon, they arrived in front of Tianzhou City. The third finger rushed towards the Gate of Ascension, and it said with a smile:
"Brother Lu Yu, may we meet again someday!"
However, the next second, his path was blocked by the dissolving space, and the symbol of "three" shone, seemingly in anger.
As Cui Han and other human powerhouses rushed towards Tianzhou City, they heard Lu Yu's voice:
"Don't come near me if you don't want to die."
The group hesitated, doubting whether this was a lie by Lu Yu, who, after his thinking became distorted, wanted to hunt them down.
But in the end, Cui Han and the others chose to trust Lu Yu, and the alien and demon factions did not rush to enter.
They discovered that the third finger was sitting cross-legged in the air, smiling as it watched them.
"What a spoilsport!"
With a "tsk" sound, the silver pearl in his hand shone brightly once more, illuminating Tianzhou City. Countless wounds appeared on the surface of the city walls.
A city...
He got injured!
This scene shocked everyone, making them realize that this was also a trap.
"Without sufficient tempering by the fires of the turbid sun, how can you enter the supremely holy City of the Daytime?"
The third finger chuckled, holding a silver orb, and used light to open a wound in the holy city, transforming it into a special portal.
"Bye-bye, come on in if you dare!"
The third finger's laughter echoed throughout the entire Sun Relics, utterly mocking.
However, just as she entered the holy city, a detached voice rang out.
"I do not see the daytime; the daytime should come to see me!"
Lu Yu shattered the [Three-Phase Fruition] barrier, his body twisted to the extreme, taking on a beast-like form.
boom!
Countless ribbons of light transformed into gigantic maws, devouring the pyramid illuminated by the radiance of the silver orbs. Upon entering his body, they were instantly ignited, causing the entire holy city to begin to converge upon him.
It was as if they had been forcibly pulled down from the dome!
"This...this..."
Everyone was stunned, realizing once again that they and Lu Yu were not in the same league.
They were all trying to pass the levels, and Lu Yu had even started swallowing the levels whole!
"Oh no!"
The third finger was also affected, and the silver pearl in its hand fell, but it was caught by a hand that grew from its abdomen the next second, and it said with a smile:
"Unfortunately, this slight shaking won't affect me!"
As she spoke, she prepared to enter the holy city.
However, at this moment, a spider appeared in front of them, its abdomen already burning with solar flames, but traces of crystal spider legs could still be seen.
It was the Blink Spider that Spider-Man had sent out earlier. Although it had mutated, it was still wrapped in a large number of shadow chains and its eyes were fierce as it charged toward the third finger.
"Too weak!"
The third finger chuckled and casually flicked its finger, shattering it into a bloody mist. A shadowy mass could be vaguely seen dissipating.
However, before she could even think about it, her gaze was drawn to something that appeared in the blood mist.
A small, black-eyed coffin, bound by countless black chains, appeared before them.
The chains above had shattered, and a corner of the coffin lid had been lifted, like Pandora's box being opened, bringing endless terror.
"This is... the Coffin of Binding Laws!!!"

P.S.: This is a long chapter of 6,200 words. It was raining heavily, my car broke down on the road, and I'm still waiting for a tow truck. I wrote it on my phone. There was another section, but I didn't finish it. I'll finish this part tomorrow and move on to the final stage of "The Relics of the Sun." I can't use AI to search for typos anymore, so please help me find them.
To explain briefly, the whole plot is interconnected. Many readers guessed when the slave spider left, and the black-feathered bird was quite shocked as well. Readers these days are too clever.
Furthermore, Lu Yu's mutation is not his normal strength, nor will it disrupt his combat power. It's mainly for the evolution of something, which is already an open secret. So there's no need to keep complaining about the lack of content. I'm updating more now so I can finish the book sooner... I can rest for a few months, maybe longer. I don't want to go to work every day (full of resentment). After the book is finished, everyone may not see the Black Feather Bird for a long time, but I will update some side stories. I'll let everyone vote on how to write them. If I really wanted to make easy money, I wouldn't have taken an eight-day vacation before.
I'm forcing myself to write now, trying to maintain my enthusiasm and make sure I don't suddenly need to rest. Even the most criticized shocking parts have foreshadowing, which I'll list out later after finishing the whole volume. This has happened so many times... It's frustrating...
