"Ying!"
Little Spider stood on Lu Yu's shoulder, looking down at the despairing Nether Earth Priest on the ground. She beckoned lightly with a slender, white finger.
Hiss, hiss!
The earth beneath the Nether Earth Priest split open, and a large amount of Spider Silk shot out, binding and rapidly wrapping around him.
First his limbs, then his body.
He was quickly turned into a Large Cocoon. Just as his head was about to be wrapped, the Nether Earth Priest ca to his senses and roared at Lu Yu:
"You'll regret this…"
Before he could finish, he was completely wrapped into a ball, floating in the air.
It contracted in an instant, spraying a bloody mist across the sky.
Spider Silk Funeral!
The brutality of the thod made the villagers tremble with fear, but at the sa ti, they heaved a sigh of relief.
"It's finally… over!"
"Is this a Genius-level Beast Tar? A few days ago, wasn't he only able to fight an Early-stage Commander? How can he now crush even a High-stage Priest…"
"It's a good thing the Alliance sent a Beast Tar, or we all would have died at the hands of these evil guys!"
"He dared to threaten us before dying. You have to be brutal when dealing with these guys!"
"…"
The villagers cheered with joyful surprise.
Husbands and wives huddled together, feeling for the first ti how blissful it was to be alive. The Bone-Digging Hounds, however, heartlessly continued digging their pits.
Besides their relief, what shocked them was Lu Yu's current strength. He could actually crush a High-stage Commander.
If he continued to grow at this rate, wouldn't he steadily step into the Morning Star Rank? The probability of him becoming a Luminous Moon Beast Tar would also be very high, and by then, he'd be an Important Figure in the Borderlands.
At this mont, in this world where the weak are prey to the strong, even Chiyue ng's beauty seed to dim a little before Lu Yu's potential.
The strong possess everything. This was the truth.
The Village Chief stared blankly at the Blood-Colored Spider Silk Ball before him. Snapping back to his senses, he said gratefully to Lu Yu:
"Thank goodness you were here this ti, otherwise Border Tomb Village would have beco easy prey for the Evil God's henchn. It seems the anomaly at the Cetery was caused by the Nether Earth Church. Now that they're dead, everything should return to normal."
"It should be… I'll go check the Cetery again in a bit.
If there are no problems, this mission will be considered complete. The Alliance will do a telephone follow-up with you to confirm."
Lu Yu nodded.
Beside him, Chiyue ng scanned her surroundings, a ripple disturbing her calm eyes.
After resolving this great threat, the Village Chief's back straightened, and he said with a loud laugh:
"No problem, we'll confirm with the Alliance shortly.
The money will be transferred to your account. But before you go, please let our village treat you to a good al.
Our village's Corpse Bone Flower Scrambled Eggs and Dead Bone Bamboo Shoot Stew are specialties that ordinary people don't get to eat. Let tell you, the Cured at Stewed with Bamboo Shoots, with a handful of pickled vegetables sprinkled on top before serving, that taste… just thinking about it makes my mouth water!"
As the Village Chief spoke, he led Lu Yu inside.
The other villagers were delighted to see this and followed along.
However, just as he was about to step into the village, Lu Yu stopped, stunning the Village Chief.
The other villagers also grew a little nervous.
After all, the vicious power Lu Yu had just displayed was still fresh in their minds.
They were afraid this brutal fellow was dissatisfied with sothing.
However, Lu Yu turned his head, revealed a shy smile, and asked:
"I've been thinking, this doesn't seem right. As a Beast Tar, since I've been paid, I shouldn't take a single needle and thread from the masses."
So he was just being modest!
Young people these days are just so thin-skinned.
The Village Chief let out a sigh of relief, patting his chest and saying magnanimously:
"What's the big deal? Although we in Border Tomb Village don't like to associate with outsiders, that doesn't an we don't know how to treat a Benefactor. Besides, it's not anything valuable, just a al.
Let give you a taste of this Old Man's cooking!"
"That's right, the Village Chief's cooking is amazing."
"My Wife loves to eat at the Village Chief's place.
She always eats her fill but never brings any back for , says she wants to die of craving!"
"Hah, my Wife never brings any back for either. So stingy."
"Village Chief, you're only talking about the food, of course he's not going to agree.
You should bring out that bottle of Cherry Wine you've been aging for twenty years to treat our Honored Guest. The last ti I got a whiff of it from afar, I couldn't sleep for days and nights!"
"Go on, go on, do you even need to say that? It's obvious you're the one who wants to drink it.
You rascal, you've been stealing my wine since you were a kid. A few tis you ran off in such a hurry, your pants got caught on my Cherry Tree.
I could see it just by looking up, and you didn't even feel ashad."
The Village Chief retorted irritably.
The villagers burst into laughter, and the man's face turned as red as a monkey's bottom.
Lu Yu looked at the joyful atmosphere, nodded, and lifted his foot to walk forward.
A crowd of villagers stared at him intently.
Just as he was about to step in, he paused again, pulling his foot back, which made everyone's hearts tremble violently.
Lu Yu scratched his head and said sheepishly:
"Why don't you go ahead and start cooking, Village Chief? I'll go check the Cetery, and I'll co back after making sure everything's fine."
This was the first ti the Village Chief had ever disliked such a well-behaved child.
His emotions fluctuated wildly, his chest heaving, but he still forced a smile and said:
"That place isn't far, and our village knows it well. Just let Old Liu make a trip.
Alright, a big man like you shouldn't dawdle. Today, you're our village's most honored guest!"
As he spoke, a middle-aged man nad Old Liu broke away from the group and headed towards the Cetery.
"Alright then."
Lu Yu nodded, then walked into the village.
Chiyue ng followed behind him, silent.
Seeing Lu Yu walk into the village, both the Village Chief and the villagers revealed weird smiles on their faces, murmuring:
"Success!"
Lu Yu turned his head in confusion and asked curiously, "Village Chief, aren't you coming in?"
The Village Chief didn't speak, but the villagers couldn't wait any longer and shouted:
"Hurry up and eat him!"
However, after they spoke, the scene remained deathly silent.
Nothing happened.
"How is that possible? Why didn't it co out?"
The villagers' faces showed confusion, and a few of the won roared almost maniacally:
"Hurry up and co out to eat them! Don't you want to be revived?"
"Erwa, hurry, Mama has found sothing yummy for you!"
"What are you all doing!"
"…"
The Village Chief also frowned.
'Could it be scared?' But that was impossible. Its strength was feared by no life form below the peak of the Commander Rank.
"Forget it, it's too late. I'll have to rely on myself!"
Seeing Lu Yu react, the Village Chief didn't want to wait any longer.
He directly took out a Small Clay Idol with a White Hollow Mask from his robes and roared:
"I command you, hurry up and eat…"
Before he finished speaking, the Clay Doll in his hand suddenly turned into a stone. And Lu Yu, who should have entered the village, suddenly appeared beside him, toying with the clay idol.
He said with a playful gaze:
"Village Chief, eat who? Hasn't the big al even started yet?"
"How is that possible?"
The Village Chief was shocked, having no idea when Lu Yu had appeared next to him. But seeing the clay idol snatched away, his eyes instantly turned red, and he roared:
"Give it back!"
He was just about to reach out when he suddenly found he couldn't move.
His entire body was wrapped in Spider Silk, his limbs bound, and he was suspended in mid-air. Looking around, he suddenly saw nurous cracks appear in the world before him.
The next mont, it shattered like a mirror.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
The world changed.
They were once again at the spot where the Nether Earth Priest was killed. Everyone was bound by Spider Silk, suspended in mid-air.
It was as if they had entered a Spider Silk Cave.
All of this was actually…
"An illusion!"
The Village Chief said with an unsightly expression.
Lu Yu ignored him and didn't deny it.
Everything just now was rely a trick to deceive the Village Chief and obtain this item.
Little Spider's predecessor was a Phantom Dream Spider. Although its main attributes beca Dreamscape and The Void after eating the Evolution Secret Food, since ancient tis…
Dreamscape and Illusory Realm have never been separate; they can even enhance each other.
Coupled with the proficiency grind from a while ago, Little Spider's [Phantasm] skill had already been raised to 90% Expert-level, just one step away from Perfect-level. Deceiving pet beasts below the Commander Rank was easy, let alone a group of humans.
Flower in the Mirror, Moon in the Water online!
The Village Chief understood he had been played. He stared intently at Lu Yu and was the first to question him:
"What are you trying to do? We invited you with good intentions, and this is how you treat us? Aren't you afraid of an Alliance Sanction?"
At this point, he could only hope to use the Alliance's na as a Tiger's Skin to intimidate Lu Yu.
"Oh, you've reminded ," Lu Yu said as if in sudden realization.
"Then I can just wipe you all out and let the Nether Earth Sect be the scapegoat, right?"
The Village Chief grew anxious and rebuked, "How dare you? Have you forgotten you have a companion? Would she just stand by and watch you do sothing so inhuman…"
He wanted to incite Chiyue ng to make a move, to make them fight amongst themselves.
But when he turned to look, he found that she had already picked up a shovel and was earnestly asking Lu Yu:
"Can I bury them here?"
What a pair of dogs… Ptooey, a Deadly Duo!
Even Lu Yu couldn't help but give a thumbs-up in his mind. 'The President is so well-behaved, what great cooperation.
' But on the surface, he still chuckled lightly:
"No need, I have a way to dispose of them harmlessly."
As his voice fell, a few Flicker Spiders appeared.
Their multiple Compound Eyes swiveled, and they opened their ferocious Mouthparts, letting out piercing hisses.
These spiders were all female, and they ate at.
Calling them Carnivorous Girls wouldn't be too much, would it?
They leaped onto the villagers one by one, bringing their heads close, causing the villagers to panic completely!
"I don't want to die…"
"Village Chief, quickly persuade him! I'd rather face the Alliance's judgnt than die."
"I haven't even seen my child co back to life, I don't want to go like this!"
"…"
Hearing this, Lu Yu thought to himself, 'Just as I thought.
' In fact, he had sensed sothing was wrong as soon as he arrived in Border Tomb Village.
Although many villagers had gathered—n, won, and even many elderly people—there was one thing conspicuously missing…
Children!
Lu Yu had previously thought the adults had hidden them away for fear of danger.
However, when the Nether Earth Sect attacked and the Village Chief asked him to lead the people to escape, Lu Yu had asked if this was everyone.
The answer he received was "yes."
And none of the other villagers had objected, which was interesting.
A village that had propagated for generations having not a single child was simply a joke.
And Lu Yu had never heard of infants not being born in Border Tomb Village.
Otherwise, there would have been news about the Cetery affecting fertility rates, and the Alliance would have investigated. This ant the village used to be normal.
Considering the white cloths hanging on the streets, the leftover morial items in the village, and so public facilities for children's activities, one could roughly deduce that there used to be children in the village.
But because sothing happened, all these children died unexpectedly.
The villagers couldn't accept this reality and chose to use so thod, like the rumors about the Cetery, to try and revive these children.
And this thod was likely quite evil.
Even the so-called witnessed disappearances of Adventure Groups might not have been in the Cetery, but at their hands.
Just now, they had even tried to trick him into going inside.
These people had completely lost their minds.
But what role did the Nether Earth Sect play in all this?
Why did they seem so furious, as if they'd had their feelings played with by a Scumbag?
But the truth wasn't hard to find.
Lu Yu asked this very question, but the Village Chief, knowing his fate, just sneered, betting that Lu Yu wouldn't dare read his mories.
If there were any traces of it, he could turn around and falsely accuse the other party of tampering with mories and slaughtering humans.
Even if it didn't succeed, it would still disgust the other party.
The other villagers also understood and kept their mouths shut, trying to use this thod to lessen their punishnt.
Lu Yu didn't care about that. It was just that these people could be considered wanted criminals, the kind that would have an Alliance bounty.
One death ant a loss of money.
To Great Benefactor Lu, earning less was the sa as losing money!
"Since you won't talk, I'll just have to ask the victim."
Lu Yu snapped his fingers.
Only then did everyone realize that what they had just seen was still an illusory realm. The Nether Earth Priest appeared before them, tied into a ball with only his head exposed.
His mouth was gagged with Spider Silk, and he could only make "muffled" sounds.
The scene of his death just now was also an illusion.
After all, he ca with a bounty. Lu Yu naturally wouldn't kill him and was prepared to earn so extra cash.
"Ying!"
Little Spider waved its hand, dispersing the Spider Silk on the Nether Earth Priest's mouth. Although the priest was shocked by Lu Yu's observation skills, he understood the current situation even better.
Not speaking ant death, but speaking would at least drag his enemies down with him.
So he started cursing loudly:
"Zhang Mu, you son of a bitch! You were the one who ca to our Nether Earth Sect, saying you had the ability to control all the Bones in the Cetery.
You said you could make tens of thousands of skeletons voluntarily enter a Ritual to be refined into a Special Secret Treasure for evolving Undead-type beasts. You told you only wanted a third of it to revive a few children as Skeletons, and the rest would be for to help my Corpse-Eating Hound King undergo a Spirituality Transformation and increase its chances of reaching the Morning Star Rank.
I only gave you a chance because I pitied you! Our Nether Earth Sect worked hard for a month, through wind and rain, helping you suppress so powerful Undead Creatures in the Cetery, and even brought a large amount of Nether Earth to help you perform the ritual. And just as it succeeded, all that was left was to issue a mission and lure a large number of Beast Tars as Sacrificial Offerings.
But then you turned around and backstabbed my people, and even trapped us in the Cetery! If I hadn't kept a trick up my sleeve, I would have been trapped to death in there! Damn it, what kind of Bastard are you? Can't you be a human being…"
This tirade, without a single pause, shot out like a machine gun, filled with profanity. It was clear how much hatred the Nether Earth Priest held in his heart.
It made sense. He thought his strength was enough to suppress everything, worked hard for a month, and just as he was about to reap the fruits of his labor—even preparing to double-cross them—he was backstabbed by soone he had looked down on.
He was even trapped in the Cetery and almost capsized in the gutter.
He had just managed to escape to get revenge, only to run into Lu Yu, get instantly crushed, lose three pet beasts, and now he had the Alliance's judgnt to look forward to.
How could the word "miserable" even begin to describe it!
A perfectly good Evil God Cult ended up being the victim of telecommunication fraud by so vicious villagers from a destitute area, almost getting scamd out of their own pants.
If this got out, it would probably beco a joke in the Dark World.
No wonder he rushed to slaughter the village. He wanted to extinguish the source of his Dark History.
Faced with the Nether Earth Priest's hysterical roars, the villagers looked flustered. The Village Chief, however, cald down and sneered:
"That's right, so what if I betrayed you? You were just stupid.
If I had shared the Corpses with you, how could I have revived these children?"
"Revive? Hehe…" the Nether Earth Priest scoffed, mocking, "Unless My Lord or a Great Existence intervenes, or you delve deep into the Netherworld and obtain the fruit of the legendary [Ghost Imperial Tree], one of the Seven Great Imperial Trees, only then might you have a chance to reverse life and death. re mortals, daring to touch the domain of life and death, how laughable."
Lu Yu shook his head.
Although he knew this guy was just boasting about his Deity, he didn't refute it.
Because thods of revival did exist in this world, but each one required a huge price.
And the ones that mortals could access were mostly Evil God Rituals.
But making sacrifices to an Unknown Existence whose thoughts were completely different from humans' would result in either becoming a Monster, or an Evil God Servitor that retained its mories.
It was just that most people were unwilling to believe it.
Hearing this, a woman loudly retorted, "You're lying! The Village Chief said that this ti it was a real revival ritual, and my child was indeed revived! He even called Mama."
The other won also showed looks of joy.
Several n had determined expressions, without a trace of doubt. There was even a Buzz-cut Man who said viciously to Lu Yu:
"How could you people understand the pain of losing a child? We just looked away for a mont, and all the children were attacked by a Demonic Beast, turned into mangled corpses of flesh and blood.
My Erwa was so well-behaved, always so obedient, but in the end, no matter how much I called, he wouldn't move.
It was the Village Chief, he gave us hope! He risked everything to find an ancient ritual, willing to bear the bla just to help us revive our children, and he succeeded! If it weren't for you, the ritual would have been a success, and my child would already be ho."
Lu Yu was rely indifferent to this, and even felt a little like laughing.
'For the sake of your children, you can sacrifice other adventurers? Aren't they also soone else's children?'
The other villagers were also incited and started shouting:
"Village Chief, we'll bear the consequences with you."
"Village Chief, it's all our fault, you're innocent! We'll admit it to the Alliance."
"…"
"Everyone…"
Listening to the villagers' shouts, the Village Chief couldn't help but burst into tears and pleaded with Lu Yu:
"I beg you, please let these poor people who have lost their children go.
This is all my fault…"
"It is indeed your fault!"
Lu Yu nodded and said seriously:
"Have you been acting for too long? You're not the real Village Chief, Zhang Mu. What are you empathizing with here?"
As his voice fell, the entire scene fell silent.
The villagers, who had been shouting until their faces were red, were like ducks with their necks wrung, their voices abruptly cut off.
Even the Nether Earth Priest, who was just watching the show, was stunned.
Not the real Village Chief? What does that an?
The Village Chief was also taken aback, a look of confusion on his face. He asked, puzzled:
"I am not ? What does that an?"
The Buzz-cut Man from before couldn't help but retort, "If he's not the Village Chief, who else could he be?"
Lu Yu shook his head.
Looking at the Village Chief who didn't seem to be lying, he said indifferently:
"As an old man, and one who has long been on the Black Earth near an Undead-type ecosystem like the Cetery, your hands don't have a single callus. What, has your life level transford too much? But if you want to prove it to , that's fine too. Just show your Beast Taming Space."
Lu Yu had noticed earlier that although the Village Chief's hands were sowhat dark, a closer look revealed they were fair, with clearly visible lines, not at all like those of a farr.
Of course, it was understandable for the Village Chief to live a comfortable life. But when he summoned the three Tombstone Hounds, he didn't use a Beast Taming Space, which made Lu Yu a little suspicious.
So he activated the Eye of Truth, and the information he got was…
【???】
The Eye of Truth had only encountered this situation three tis in total. The first was the Soul-Snatching Demonic Cloud, a being suspected of surpassing the Overlord rank.
The second was the White Fox, and the third was the shielding ability on the President.
They had only one thing in common: they were beyond the limits of Lu Yu's perception.
It was just that this ti, he could barely reach the limit of prying for information.
Even so, this wasn't an ability a village chief of Border Tomb Village could possess.
Otherwise, why bother with conspiracies and backstabbing the Nether Earth Sect? Wouldn't it be better to just turn on them and smack them dead?
The fact that he could make the villagers believe their children were about to be successfully revived ant that the ritual itself was of a high level, not so common trash. And from what the Nether Earth Priest said, he had also controlled all the Corpses in the Cetery.
If he had this ability, would Border Tomb Village still just be a small village that could be wiped out at any ti by a Nether Earth Sect Branch?
Wouldn't it be better to just expand into a town or city, to grow bigger and stronger?
Connecting all these factors, only one possibility remained.
This Village Chief was a fake, or rather…
Unbeknownst to everyone, he had been replaced by an unknown life form with a shielding ability.
It should have so kind of high-level shielding, but its strength probably wasn't so great that it was unbeatable. Otherwise, it would have steamrolled everything long ago.
The villagers mostly felt this was just a slanderous tactic from Lu Yu, but they didn't speak up to refute it. A seed of doubt had been planted in their hearts.
There were clever people among the villagers. They subconsciously began to think, since when had the Village Chief beco so capable…
First, he produced an ancient ritual, then he sched against the Nether Earth Sect.
Such strategic planning was indeed a bit different from the simple and honest Village Chief of the past.
The more they thought about it, the more they felt an inexplicable fear.
Lu Yu said indifferently, "If you want to prove you're still Zhang Mu, then summon your Beast Taming Space."
As his voice fell, the Crew-cut Youth's eyes turned crimson.
He stared intently at the Village Chief and said urgently, "That's right, Village Chief, summon it and show him! Even if we die, we can't be slandered!"
At this mont, he was afraid…
If the Village Chief wasn't the Village Chief, were the things they had been doing all this ti really to revive their children?
"What's so difficult about that? I am . Could I have beco soone else?"
Zhang Mu nodded, preparing to summon with full confidence.
But the next mont, he froze and couldn't help but mutter:
"Where did my Beast Taming Space go?"
As his voice fell, the crowd was in an uproar. Everyone's expression changed.
Even the Nether Earth Priest's face changed.
But even more shocked was Zhang Mu, who muttered as if he had gone mad:
"How can this be? I'm a Beast Tar, I really am Zhang Mu, I'm not a monster… If I'm not … then who am I…"
"Ah!"
A scream rang out.
A woman looked at the Village Chief before her, her face filled with terror. The others were also in disbelief.
At this mont, dense beads of sweat began to form on the face of the Spider Silk-bound Zhang Mu due to nervousness, and they began to drip down as flesh-colored beads.
"I am not ? Then who am I… Who am I…"
As his muttering grew louder, the sweating speeded up, and the Village Chief's entire face began to lt like a Paraffin Wax statue.
His facial features blurred and clumped together, and soon only hollow eyes and a mouth remained, looking incomparably weird.
Finally, he had a sudden realization and laughed loudly:
"So I am…"
"Ninth Finger!"
His voice suddenly changed into a woman's.
The mont it sounded, the Spider Silk suddenly disintegrated, turning into white wisps that drifted down from the sky.
And from within, a tall woman with a slender figure appeared, wearing a White Porcelain Mask engraved with the "Ж" pattern.
In her hand, she held a Paraffin Wax Mask with a face identical to the Village Chief's, but it was already covered in dense cracks.
The mont the Nether Earth Priest saw her, a look of terror appeared on his face, and he muttered:
"The Faceless Brotherhood… I've been dealing with these lunatics all along…"
The villagers were also dumbfounded.
The Village Chief had suddenly turned into a woman.
"Family, who gets it? The drama wasn't even over, and I was already found out.
It's really… So Cool!"
The Masked Woman stretched out a slender finger and lightly poked the Lu Yu in front of her, popping him like a bubble, causing him to dissipate.
Still a Phantasm.
She turned her head to look at Lu Yu, who was hiding in the distance, waved, and said with a grin:
"You're very interesting. I like you!"
As she spoke, she inadvertently glanced at Chiyue ng, a trace of shock and apprehension appearing in her eyes.
"Thanks, but I don't want your affection. It's nauseating," Lu Yu replied with a frown, then asked calmly, "You were the one behind all this, right?"
"Heehee, correct."
The White Porcelain Mask Woman clasped her hands behind her back, leaned forward slightly, and said with a smile:
"Even the best Script needs a suitable stage to be perford.
It just so happened that I saw these dead children. The resentnt of the deceased and the grief of the living intertwined… what a beautiful scene.
As a Family mber, I should take responsibility, lead them out of their sorrow, and create a perfect ending of a family reunion."
Chiyue ng said calmly, "Lies!"
Lu Yu was naturally aware of this and sneered:
"Can you revive them completely?"
"Of course not. That's already the domain of a God."
The White Porcelain Mask Woman admitted it decisively, plunging the villagers into rage.
They questioned:
"Where did the Village Chief go? Have you been lying to us all along?"
"I know you're anxious, but don't be. Your Village Chief has been here all along.
I've stripped away his entire existence. It's just a pity my skills were a bit rusty, and I left the flaw with his hands.
Now that it's broken, it's actually a good thing."
The Masked Woman lightly pinched her fingers, and the White Wax Mask in her hand shattered with a bang!, turning into Fine Powder that scattered with the wind, making all the villagers feel a deep sense of despair.
"As for deceiving you…"
The Masked Woman spoke again, her tone playful, "Oh no, I never did. I said from the very beginning that I'd let your family be together, neat and tidy, forever.
Oh, right, I forgot to ntion, I have a backup of that clay idol."
As she spoke, she took out the Pale Humanoid Puppet in her hand and waved it triumphantly.
Rumble!
As her voice fell, accompanied by violent tremors, the ground in Border Tomb Village cracked open, and the pale, corpse-like houses began to collapse.
Amidst the dust-filled sky, a massive figure slowly rose from the ground.
A low, pained, hoarse cry, layered and intertwined, spread out.
"Mama…"
"Dad…"
"We… are together forever…"
The dust settled, revealing its true form.
It was a… made of countless corpses and bones, forcibly mashed together…
Corpse Mountain!
No wonder the Bone-Digging Hounds were digging so enthusiastically.
This thing was a full twenty ters tall.
Its body was covered in huge, pale faces, one after another. Their features were hollow, yet they were smiling, letting out innocent, child-like laughter, constantly calling out words like "Mother" and "Father."
It had legs made of corpses, like giant pillars, but they looked exceptionally slender compared to its massive, bloated body.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
As it began to approach, casting a shadow that dimd the light, a suffocating aura spread out. It had already surpassed the High-stage Commander and reached the Peak Commander Rank.
Normally, with such a massive accumulation of spirituality from corpses, it should have fallen into chaos. However, within this huge body, a large amount of the Nether Earth Sect's precious Nether Earth was used to connect them, forcing these undead resentnts into a strange state of tranquility.
Quantitative change led to a qualitative change!
This spirituality began to continuously converge towards the faces, constantly compressing and condensing, starting to show a trend of Spirituality Transformation.
Even Lu Yu felt a terrifying pressure at this mont.
This thing was extrely terrifying!
Its physical strength alone was likely no less than that of a general Spirituality Transformation.
And the villagers, who had originally longed to revive their children, now only felt fear in their hearts after learning the truth.
Seeing the approaching Corpse Mountain, they began to shout, "Help, there's a monster!"
Only a few won watched this scene with looks of joyful surprise, constantly shouting, "Nannan, co quickly, Mama is here…"
Hearing the calls, the many pale faces on the Smiling Corpse Mountain laughed and quickened their pace. Each step was like an earthquake, filling the villagers with imnse fear.
The White Porcelain Mask Woman looked at Lu Yu and chuckled lightly:
"This is the [Smiling Corpse Mountain] that I cultivated using the bones from the Cetery. I originally wanted to transform it into an Imagination Body, but unfortunately, because of your arrival, it's only half-successful, a Failed Product.
If it could be completed, it would have gained the ability to infinitely devour corpses and grow in a snowball effect, eventually giving rise to a Corpse Mountain Range.
Since you've exposed my identity, from now on, I'm a Viewer, and the new Lead Actor of this drama is you.
Defeat it, or be eaten by it. I hope you can bring a little surprise…"
"I happen to think there's a third option."
Lu Yu interrupted the White Porcelain Mask Woman's words, saying under her surprised gaze:
"You continue being an Actor, and please !"
The White Porcelain Mask Woman was stunned for a mont, then burst out laughing, clutching her stomach.
"Haha, you're so interesting! Still cracking jokes at a ti like this. I can't help but want to pull you into the Brotherhood to be a Family mber…"
But the next mont, her smile froze.
Rumble!
The distant Cetery collapsed. Endless Resentnt shot into the sky, vanished in an instant, and transford into an Ancient Holy City that appeared above Lu Yu's head.
The Holy City was shrouded in Mist. A twisted dragon shadow was quickly born, more real than the last ti.
A ferocious Dragon Head pierced through the mist, descended into reality, and appeared before everyone.
They were wreathed in the Light of Dusk.
They had no bodies, only three massive dragon heads fused together in a chaotic and disorderly manner. They were terrifying, exuding a suffocating pressure, and they let out a roar:
"Roar!"
The Dragon Might spread, turning into a sweeping storm that halted the Corpse Mountain's advance.
It scattered the clouds for ten miles around, and a terrifying pressure spread like a tsunami.
True Three-Headed Dusk Dragon!
Lu Yu's trash talk was just to stall for ti.
After discovering the anomaly, he had imdiately sent Little Mouse's Clone with the living weapon Eggy to the masterless Cetery.
Using the resentnt accumulated over long years from tens of thousands of corpses as a Sacrificial Offering, he summoned the Holy City.
With such a massive accumulation, its power had already surpassed Spirituality Transformation, comparable to the Morning Star Rank for a short period.
I was waiting for my ultimate move.
Were you waiting to die?
Besides that, he still had the White Fox's Star Leaf as a Trump Card. If he couldn't win, he could still run.
Able to advance or retreat, the roles of attack and defense were reversed!
Lu Yu looked at the Masked Woman and grinned:
"Laugh. Why aren't you laughing anymore?"
An 8,800-word chapter.
You can read the previous chapter now. The President is very cute.
A new story arc begins tomorrow. Still asking for monthly tickets.
This one isn't a pure Imagination Body, just a Failed Product. A real Imagination Body will be stronger.
