“Ying ying!”
Little Spider heard its Master's sigh and proficiently took an insulated flask from its Void Treasure Chest, pouring him a cup of hot tea.
A cup of tea afterward makes one feel as happy as a god!
“Thank you!”
Lu Yu patted Little Spider's head.
It was becoming more and more considerate, handling everything in an orderly fashion, much like a virtuous wife and good mother!
He just felt that if this continued, he would be pampered into a useless person…
Little Mouse watched the harmonious scene between Xiu Ren and Sister Spider, feeling strangely superfluous. But it didn't have any storage-type skills, so even if it had snacks… it had already eaten them itself!
Its eyes darted around, and it imdiately thought of a solution!
'Although I don't have anything, Sister Spider isn't like ; she's always praising and encouraging Brother Xiu Ren!'
So it floated over and said in a deceptively sweet tone:
“Xiu Ren, you're so amazing, you easily toyed with a Monarch.
Little Mouse is so happy to be your pet beast!”
“…”
Lu Yu glanced at the lewd hamster with a strange look. This fellow usually did nothing but eat and sleep.
Its sudden soft and gentle words made him feel like there was a conspiracy.
Could it be that it wanted a raise in wages?
That's unacceptable!
If it dares to ask for money today, it'll dare to bite tomorrow!
If it dares to eat potato chips today, it'll dare to eat people tomorrow!
If it dares to ride on my head today, tomorrow it will dare to…
'Did I say sothing wrong? Why isn't Xiu Ren responding?'
Just as Little Mouse, whose scalp was numbing from the strange stare, was about to speak, Lu Yu interrupted it and changed the subject:
“It's a good thing it was sleeping, otherwise we would have had to retreat this ti!”
Speaking of which, Lu Yu reviewed the plan that ensured absolute safety in his mind…
Weaving a lie!
By deceiving the Monarch-rank demonic beast and the Void Fish Overlord, as long as they acknowledged it, it would be forcibly established with their powerful spirituality as the foundation!
Under normal circumstances, it would be very difficult to succeed and would be seen through by a Monarch creature at a glance.
However, facing a Void-Chirping Hundred-Eyed Cicada that was in a long-term deep sleep gave Lu Yu room to operate!
After all, Little Spider was a Monarch cub of dream and void!
But if he had just gone to weave a dreamscape, it would have been like having his eyes blinded by bad luck and falling into a trap!
Because cicada-type pet beasts had another characteristic!
The cicada senses the autumn wind before it blows!
The reason the Void Coral Polyps and the Void Fish Overlord didn't wake it was because they couldn't even break its shell, so they posed no threat!
But if he had used the Sea of Nightmares and activated the [Nightmare Sea Stealth] ability to attack its dreamscape from within, the threat level would have greatly increased, waking it up directly and putting it on full alert!
In the face of absolute strength, no matter what thods were used, they would be useless!
So, Lu Yu first had Little Spider enter its Spirit Corrosion Form. The first ti he used the Mirror of Concealnt, he secretly had Little Mouse conceal them and made a run for it.
He left Little Spider behind to continue weaving phantasms, creating the illusion that he hadn't left, and had the Thousand-Faced Soul Tree Rootlets that Little Mouse had arranged beforehand turn into a loudspeaker to forcibly wake the cicada.
Many people have probably experienced being suddenly woken up from a deep sleep and being in a muddled state, subconsciously answering and agreeing to whatever is said to them.
However, this process was very short, and it would soon enter an awake state!
But he had the [Fortune and Misfortune are Intertwined] buff. He directly used the rules to forcibly activate bad luck, instantly converting it into an equal amount of good luck, which increased the success rate of the subsequent plan!
This ti, it was his turn!
So Lu Yu took the opportunity to use his dream weaving ability to transmit a lie!
[The three fellows before it were already an easy catch.
It could crush them effortlessly and enjoy them slowly!]
To ensure its authenticity, Lu Yu also passed on so information about Little Spider's and the others' abilities. With Little Mouse's help in simulating the Void-Chirping Hundred-Eyed Cicada's soul fluctuation, and since it wasn't an attack, it didn't provoke any resistance!
The mont he woke it up was the first imprinting of the lie!
When the Void-Chirping Hundred-Eyed Cicada had just appeared, binding it with the Spirit King Curse Threads was the second ti!
When he used the Star Leaf to reverse ti, that was the final and most crucial ti!
With three moves, he successfully engraved the lie in its mory, deepened the impression, and made it completely acknowledge it!
Thus, the Imagination Object [Illusory Bubble] was activated, and the lie was established.
A real phantom was constructed!
The three of them, including Lu Yu, and a Boon Coral were born, imperceptibly replacing the phantasm woven by Little Spider!
As for the Little Spider left behind, at the mont he used the Star Leaf, it borrowed the white fox's power as a cover, so while the Void-Chirping Hundred-Eyed Cicada was still reacting, it snatched the Boon Coral and threw it into its Void Treasure Chest.
In order not to attract the attention of a space-type overlord creature, it didn't use a space jump, but was summoned back by Lu Yu, who hadn't gone far, through his Beast Taming Space!
Within a certain distance, a Beast Tar can directly recall their pet beast through the Beast Taming Space!
Next, Lu Yu directly boarded the Void Matriarch's Nest and sped away, fleeing the scene!
Only a real phantom was left behind to face-off with it!
By the ti it discovered the truth, it was too late!
With the Legendary-tier skill [Fate's Protection] concealing his aura and blocking all divination-type skills, there was no way for it to find Lu Yu!
He had used all his trump cards, securing a 100% win rate!
Let the Void Monarch get a taste of an outlander's despicable thods!
Lu Yu looked back and saw that the countless floating Void Stone Chunks, which had been like roadblocks on their journey here, had now turned to fine powder.
Even though they were dozens of miles away, they were still affected by the shockwave.
If they had faced it head-on, their bodies would have been obliterated!
“The demonic beasts these days are really getting more and more irritable!”
Lu Yu shook his head, quickly arrived at the coordinate position where he entered the Void, tore open a gateway, and returned to the main world!
What t his eyes were bright, warm lights, a stark contrast to the deathly stillness of the Void, giving him a sense of security!
“Ti sure flies!”
He glanced at his phone and found that a day and a half had passed, but in reality, most of that ti was spent traveling!
“Ying ying!”
The first thing Little Spider did upon returning ho was run to the kitchen.
Although they had eaten dry rations on the way, there was a kind of hunger…
Called 'Little Spider thinks you're hungry'!
It manipulated its spider silk to heat up a pot and boil water, preparing to make two bowls of steaming hot Yangchun noodles.
As for Little Spider itself… it would eat its favorite waterlon!
“Sister Spider, give two more fried eggs, slice so sausage, and if you have any crispy pork lard residue, add so of that too.
Love you!”
Little Mouse slumped onto the sofa, extending a small paw to make a heart shape, with no intention of getting up.
After working so hard for so long, it could finally slack off with a clear conscience!
It prepared to finish the rest of the television series.
The Elf Princess had already t the prince of the Dark Beastman Kingdom, who was handso, suave, and polite.
He claid to have fallen in love with the Elf Princess at first sight, trying to persuade her to surrender and beco his sole concubine, the future queen, to make their two kingdoms allied nations, and then…
…he was smashed to bits by a single punch from the Elf Princess, who had overco all obstacles, obtained nurous secret treasures, and received guidance from her teacher.
A fierce woman doesn't need love!
Moreover, he had captured her people and then told her he liked her. That was practically asking for trouble.
So she cut down the stunned kingdom soldiers and charged toward the royal palace!
Although the plot was unexpected, this was the kind of female protagonist Little Mouse liked.
Push through everything, with every punch hitting flesh!
Thinking of this, Little Mouse secretly glanced at Xiu Ren and, seeing his attention wasn't on it, had a sudden idea.
On its hamster body, the Power of a Thousand Faces flowed, silently transforming it into a long-eared, delicate-featured elf girl. She wore clothes made of leaves, which, while not luxurious, had an elegant air.
Her beauty was second only to Little Spider and the Chiyue Sisters, and on par with Yu Xiyan!
If Lu Yu were to look at it now, he would definitely find that Little Mouse looked almost identical to the Elf Princess from the television series!
The only difference, perhaps, was the temperant!
Although the Elf Princess's attire was lewd, her gaze was resolute, her actions were capable, and coupled with her wit and intelligence, she had considerable charisma.
In contrast, Little Mouse's transformation was lying on the sofa, casually propping its long, fair legs on the edge, the corners of its mouth slightly raised in a lazy smile.
Like a slacking-off stay-at-ho beautiful girl!
“Hmph, this body is too frail and uncomfortable, not nearly as cute as Little Mouse's real body!”
Little Mouse made a careful comparison and nodded with satisfaction. Then, while Xiu Ren wasn't looking, it canceled the new form, changed back to its original appearance, rolled around on the sofa twice, and stretched out luxuriously!
A round hamster is the best!
Soon, Little Spider, dressed as a female cook, brought out the finished Yangchun noodles.
Lu Yu's portion had one egg, while Little Mouse's portion… was a super deluxe extra-large version. Not authentic, but delicious.
In the end, it even drank all the soup!
After eating, Lu Yu felt ward up all over and marveled at how Little Spider's culinary skill was getting better and better.
However, he didn't rush into the Nightmare Dream Prison to train.
Instead, he took out his phone to contact the Dark Moon Chamber of Comrce.
According to the Eye of Truth's display, the [Blessing Coral] contained a powerful Secret Food recipe, making it much more potent than using it directly!
But just as he was about to send a ssage, Lu Yu discovered a serious problem!
His bank card… was empty again!
To obtain the top-tier treasure [Boon Coral], all the Void Coral had beco nutrient/fodder.
As for materials from the Void Fish, he had none, let alone from a Monarch creature…
The only thing he obtained was the thirteen space fragnts from the blind box he opened initially.
But they were used to create new Flicker Spiders and replace the five that died.
Little Spider ate one piece, so eleven pieces were already used up, leaving only two!
They were just enough to serve as Little Spider's reserve food to supplent the space elents needed for its growth. And although they sold for a million, the buyback price would likely only be 900,000, which wasn't enough to buy the supplentary ingredients this ti.
Unfortunately, he had already sold all the other miscellaneous items. What remained were useful materials.
He even had to keep the golden coffin, as it might have a miraculous effect if he went to the Cursed World in the future.
Sure enough, the love of the God of Poverty is never absent!
Little Spider sensed its Master's worried emotions and asked with concern:
“Ying?”
If you have worries, you can't consult the Little Spider Hotline!
ヾ()~
Little Spider's face fell.
The side effect of the Spirit Corrosion Form had struck again!
“It's nothing!”
Lu Yu shook his head, not telling it about these matters. He knew that if he spoke up, Little Spider would let him sell all three space fragnts.
As long as its Master was happy, it was happy too!
But such a well-behaved and understanding creature shouldn't have to suffer!
“I've got it!”
Lu Yu quickly thought of a way to make money: sell so products from the Life Provisions Art. Of course, not the Life Honey; he didn't even have enough for himself.
But another kind—[Decay Blood Honey]!
Lu Yu had previously made ten bottles of it using so demonic beast corpses and set them aside. Now, with the disappearance of the Mystic Realm of Decay, once the news spread, the price would rise considerably, whether for buying or hoarding.
Although it had a good effect on the Flicker Spiders, he could just make more using corrupted demonic beast corpses.
Having control of the production line made him confident!
After Lu Yu made his request, he was originally prepared to go to the Dark Moon Chamber of Comrce, but they beca quite excited after hearing about the Decay Blood Honey and said they would co over imdiately!
Before long, Huang Tiantian arrived imdiately with an appraiser.
The procession was still grand, attracting the attention of many neighbors, who were envious and wished their own sons had even a tenth of Lu Yu's talent.
The forr bad example had once again beco the 'child from next door'!
Huang Tiantian had changed into a yellow cheongsam with white stockings this ti.
After seeing the appraiser nod at her, indicating that the ten bottles of Decay Blood Honey were of high quality, she said with a delighted expression:
“That's wonderful! Our chamber of comrce happens to have an honored guest who needs to collect one hundred types of toxins, and Decay Blood Honey is one of the key components. But the one or two bottles in our inventory are not enough.
Because it concerns a pure-blood dragon, and a scher known as the Proliferating Green Dragon at that, whose whereabouts are incredibly mysterious and who is extrely good at hiding. We haven't found a trace even after searching several domains.
Mr. Lu, you've really done us a huge favor this ti!
By the way, are you willing to give up your purchase channel? It won't be for free; our Dark Moon Chamber of Comrce is willing to offer a reasonable price!”
Lu Yu was tempted by this, but he didn't say that he had made it himself.
After all, The Disciple and Fan Lü in the Mystic Realm of Decay incident had nearly devoured the earth veins of the entire borderlands. Although they ultimately failed, it still caused a sensation throughout the Alliance!
With countless eyes watching, jumping out now would be courting death!
So he shook his head and said helplessly:
“I also bought it from Joy Street.
I didn't expect this thing to turn into an investnt product…”
“What a pity!”
Huang Tiantian looked regretful. As the well-inford Dark Moon Chamber of Comrce, they had naturally heard of the mysterious Joy Street, which had been in the borderlands recently.
It was highly likely that Lu Yu had bought it by chance at a trade fair there. She then continued:
“The previous price for Decay Blood Honey was 300,000 per bottle, but the current market price is 580,000.
However, for ten bottles together… we'll offer a price of six million!
After deducting the cost of the materials you purchased, ten watchdog-model miniature caras, and so basic intelligence on primordial variant species, there will be 730,000 left. It will be transferred to your card shortly.
Just keep an eye out for the bank text ssage.”
Lu Yu was also very satisfied with this price.
After all, although Decay Blood Honey was precious, it was ultimately a consumable!
Cultivating a poison-type pet beast wasn't a matter of drinking just one bottle. It required long-term purchases, a continuous burning of money!
If it was too expensive, people would rather not buy it!
If it weren't for an honored guest from the Imperial Capital this ti, they probably wouldn't have rushed over so hastily!
Not long after seeing Huang Tiantian off, Lu Yu received the bank text ssage.
The number that once would have pleased him now left him feeling a bit numb.
It's not nearly enough!
'Speaking of which, are there deities like the God of Wealth in this world? If so, I'd like to go and pray too.
A Taboo being praying to a god, even one that just possesses a rank, I'm probably the only one…'
Lu Yu laughed at himself. Even though he didn't consider himself a superstitious person, at this mont, he still lowered his head.
Then, with a thought, the world before him was engulfed by the Chaos Qi Flow, and he once again transford into the Thousand-Handed Demon God residing in the depths of chaos!
Veiled by the endless Chaos Qi Flow, a casual wave of his hand was enough to shake the entire void world, to evolve and annihilate worlds!
“If only the Void-Chirping Hundred-Eyed Cicada could co here and duel , I wouldn't even need to act. The Chaos Qi Flow alone would be enough to annihilate it!”
The thought flashed through Lu Yu's mind and vanished.
He then took out the various materials he needed this ti from his material library.
Depending on their rarity, they shone with varying degrees of the light of spirituality!
The most brilliant among them was a dark purple coral.
[Boon Coral: Born from Void Coral Polyps, a group of weak lifeforms at the bottom of the void ecology. They possess a strong perception of void spirituality and can absorb large amounts of void spiritual energy to purify it, gathering together to form special coral colonies.
They continuously clean up the trash in the Void, acting as the Void's cleaners.
Birth condition: It needs to be rooted in the body or corpse of a powerful creature to obtain a trace of higher spirituality, triggering an explosive growth in the coral colony and enhancing its cleaning ability.
This process will earn the favor of the Will of the Void, which will bestow a wisp of a Void Mark upon the coral colony.
However, if during this period, the coral polyps are consud in large quantities by Void Fish, the fish oil produced will activate them, giving them the ability to attach to living organisms.
After being consud, it will link with the target's spirituality and integrate into every blood vessel and pore of the body, granting a continuously growing Void Skin!]
“So it wasn't an accident that they were rooted on the Void-Chirping Hundred-Eyed Cicada. One of the conditions for their birth is the corpse of a powerful creature.
No wonder even the top researchers of the human race couldn't replicate it…”
Lu Yu sighed. Besides that, it also required the blessing of the Will of the Void, and that was the most difficult part.
After all, that was an existence comparable to the world consciousness of the main world. In this vast Void, who knew how many ancient existences it had nurtured? Even ordinary deities were insignificant before it!
Probably only a Taboo Existence could interfere with it!
If Lu Yu wanted to extract the Void through his extraction ability, the first thing he would have to face would be the wrathful Will of the Void!
Thinking of this, Lu Yu looked at the other materials he had purchased—a mass of black, jade-like fur!
[Void Yak's Pelt (Three-star): A special species born in the Void, a herd animal.
Its appearance is similar to a yak, but its body is much larger, like a tall building. It has long black hair condensed from void power that drags on the ground and can extend instantly to traverse space and bind opponents.
Then it starts from the head, eating the opponent bit by bit. It loves lifeforms with eyes but dislikes eating Void Fish because it feels their fish oil stinks.
Its fur is ho to a large number of Void Gadflies, which usually feed on the host's flesh and blood to grow. They are hermaphrodites and capable of self-reproduction.
In the harsh living conditions of the Void, Void Yaks actively rear gadflies and periodically eat so of them. After a young calf is born and can walk, it will receive its first and only gift from its parents… a small gadfly egg!
And under their guidance, it learns to endure the gadflies' gnawing and dosticate them into a symbiosis.
If it fails, it will starve to death and beco food for the other calves.
Their pelts are their core extraordinary organs, top-tier Void dium materials.
They are resistant to most Void-type skills and can be used to create Skill Secret Food.]
[Moonlight Moth's Blood: A special species born in the Moonlight Ecology.
Its initial form is the Moonlight Worm. Only when the moon is at its brightest will it slowly crawl onto leaves to absorb lunar splendor, constantly refining itself and spitting out moonlight silk.
During this process, it will be hunted by other natural enemies.
The surviving Moonlight Worms will spit out enough silk to wrap themselves in a cocoon, finally tamorphosing into a Moonlight Moth.
Its racial skill, "Moonblade Storm," allows it to whip up hundreds of moonblades by flapping its wings.
Their blood is one of the best secret ritual materials.
It is also sotis used to refine and preserve spiritual marks. Enough source blood can replace an extraordinary organ to create a Skill Secret Food.
]
Although it was only two items, they had cost Lu Yu several million!
He kept chanting in his mind, "This is an investnt in the future," then condensed the Chaos Furnace, the initial fla within it burning fiercely.
He wasn't sure if it was his imagination, but the flas in the furnace now seed even more turbulent than when he first saw them!
“Let's begin!”
Lu Yu tossed the [Boon Coral] in.
The mont it touched the flas, it lted into a purplish-red ball of light. It was initially as tall as a person, but as a large amount of impurities were refined out, it began to shrink to the size of a fist at a visible rate.
Seeing this, Lu Yu imdiately added the [Void Yak's Pelt]. Under the burning flas, it instantly turned into a mass of chalcedony liquid, which held the ball of light.
Finally, he added 130g of [Moonlight Moth's Blood]. The mont it ca into contact with the fist-sized ball of light, it rged, continuously deforming, and finally condensed into a mysterious and complex inscription that shone with a purple-gold light.
And this… was the mark of the Will of the Void!
Although it was probably less than one one-hundred-millionth of it, it corresponded to the power of origin of the Void!
The mont it appeared, as if sensing sothing, it subconsciously tried to resist, emitting endless void anomalies in an attempt to corrode everything around it!
But it couldn't shake even a wisp of Chaos Qi and was then casually suppressed by the Thousand-Handed Demon God!
Boom!
The power of the Taboo Secret Food shone brightly, fusing it all together and quickly turning it into a small, coral-shaped cake!
[Holy Seal Coral Cake: Made with Boon Coral as the core, with the addition of a Void Yak's Pelt and 130g of Moonlight Moth's Blood. Consuming it grants the top-tier super-tier skill—Void Holy Seal!]
Lu Yu exited Creator Mode.
The Chaos Qi Flow before him dissipated, and the power of The Great One vanished, leaving him with a sense of loss. However, he quickly suppressed this emotion.
Once lost in the illusory higher-dinsional power, one could very well lose oneself!
So he handed the small cake to Little Spider. The latter was no stranger to this, accepting it with both hands and opening its small, cherry-like mouth to swallow it bite by bite.
Hum!
The light of the void swirled around Little Spider's body, and a special purple mark, resembling two intertwined snakes, appeared on the back of its hand before vanishing in an instant.
It didn't cause much of a phenonon!
“This is…”
Lu Yu had kept his Eye of Truth open and saw the turbulent waves hidden within this calm process.
After eating the Secret Food, the space-type skills on Little Spider's body like [Void's Blessing], [Void Force Field], and so on, disappeared one after another, or rather…
…they were eaten by [Void Holy Seal]!
Among them, [Etherealization] belonged to the dual attributes of dream and void and was not assimilated. [Void Matriarch's Nest] was an independent individual, so it didn't disappear either, but a special mark appeared on the skill, seeming to be related to it.
After devouring all the pure space-type skills, countless fine patterns spread out from it, like ancient inscriptions, rapidly spreading over Little Spider's entire body and rging with all its flesh and blood, sinews, blood vessels, and hair!
Finally, it tamorphosed into a brand-new skill!
[Void Holy Seal: A top-tier super-tier skill born after consuming the Skill Secret Food "Holy Seal Coral Cake" personally made by the Master of the Gate. It simultaneously devoured and rged skills like "Void's Blessing,"
"Void Force Field," etc.
While retaining the abilities of the other skills, a large number of Void Cursed Seals integrated into its flesh, blood, and soul, nurturing a Void Skin. It can directly absorb void energy to grow, and when needed, it can be summoned via thought to cover the entire body, enhancing defense, and it can grow.
The Void Holy Seal can condense a holy seal to suppress a portion of space, amplify the power of all space-type skills, with specific effects depending on proficiency, and it has a certain suppressive effect on space-type pet beasts.
If it can continue to collect Secret Foods made from the power of origin of the Void, it can be advanced to a legendary skill of the void system!]
“It's called top-tier super-tier, but these effects are already equivalent to half a Legendary-tier skill!”
Lu Yu couldn't help but exclaim.
It directly surpassed the super-tier skill [Void Control] and beca a true superior skill of the Void.
As for how powerful a Legendary-tier skill was, there was no need to say more!
Just the Legendary-tier passive skill [Fate's Protection] alone had helped him avoid countless crises and pull chestnuts out of the fire many tis.
Otherwise, he would have been caught by a group of big shots long ago!
And the Void Holy Seal was only one step away from Legendary-tier!
It only needed to devour enough void power of origin skills to usher in an evolution!
Needless to say, its abilities, while retaining a bunch of skill effects, also added a suppressive effect on space-type pet beasts!
It was practically cheating and getting others' accounts banned at the sa ti!
A real bug!
“Ying!”
Little Spider also tried it out curiously. With a thought, a large amount of Void Skin instantly spread out.
Tss tss!
First, it covered its six crystal-like spider legs, turning them dark purple. Its entire body, except for its head, was covered in mysterious purple skin and patterns, exuding the aura of the Void.
But its appearance was not ugly. It was like wearing a kind of form-fitting clothing, which, on the contrary, added a trace of demonic and domineering air to the usually holy Little Spider!
Crack crack!
The six Void Eyes behind it were also covered with cursed seals, making them look even more bizarre.
They ford a giant, six-eyed void flower, its eyes constantly turning, watching everything!
At this mont, it was as if ti suddenly accelerated for Little Spider, prematurely revealing a part of its future form as a Monarch demonic beast!
The Void Spider Queen!
“This is so cool!”
Little Mouse at the side watched Sister Spider's new form, drooling with envy.
But Little Mouse didn't go and bother Xiu Ren, because it understood that its own materials were simply too hard to find.
Transformation-type materials were already scarce, and one had to search for them in other domains, and their prices were not low either.
Especially its power of Myriad Transformations, which was extrely rare.
Currently, it seed that only the Faceless Brotherhood had it. Other than that, there was the Monarch-rank Soul-Snatching Demonic Cloud in the abandoned urban area, which had soul transformation and concealnt abilities!
It couldn't find weak ones, and it couldn't beat the strong ones!
This made Little Mouse quite lancholic!
Maybe…
…I should let Xiu Ren infiltrate the enemy's ranks?
A large 7,300-character chapter, asking for monthly tickets! I have a bit of writer's block, need to sort things out.
I'm preparing to start a new story arc, and Volu One is also about to conclude
