As his voice fell, the entire place went silent!
Everyone looked at the domineering figure clad in the Dusk Dragon Armor, their pupils quaking and their minds a complete ss, unable to comprehend the situation!
Just a mont ago, wasn't the Farm Lady full of confidence, looking like a victor who was about to turn them all into livestock?
How did the vibe suddenly change to that of the bully Lu Yu forcing his way into a private ho and harassing the mistress of the house?
The so-called High-dinsional Contamination not only had no effect, but it even made the dragon armor seem a bit brighter, as if it had received so nourishnt.
"Lu Yu didn't have an Aberration? Was the Farm Lady lying to us?"
"It's possible.
After all, how could the power of a Great Existence be so easily wielded by a mortal!"
"That guy Lu Yu saw through everything from the start and didn't say a word, letting us live in fear. What twisted humor!"
"As expected of the Mystic Realm God of War.
We're safe now. Just how many more trump cards does this kid have?"
"…"
Although everyone was snarking, their eyes were filled with anticipation.
This was especially true for the few who had been preparing for suicide; they were secretly glad they hadn't acted rashly, or their deaths would have been far too frustrating.
As for Lu Yu being able to resist ntal pollution… they didn't think too much about it, or rather, they had thought it was impossible from the very beginning.
Even a trace of contamination from a Great Existence was not sothing a mortal could withstand!
Most likely, the Farm Lady was just bluffing!
As expected, the more beautiful a woman is, the more she lies!
"How is this possible!?"
Compared to the pleasant surprise of the crowd, the Farm Lady was stunned. An emotion called fear sprouted in her heart as she felt everything begin to slip from her control!
Because she was certain that she had definitely used the power of the mark left behind by the Great Existence!
Although most of it had fused with the child in her womb, the small remaining part of the mark had been successfully sealed away through constant ritual offerings during the Rotten Feast.
It was preserved in the Platform of the Rotten Feast, which was this very building!
As long as the Rotten Feast Ritual was initiated, she could borrow this contamination through her child!
The first ti she used it, the re aftermath of Its diffusion had transford all life on the farm into special demonic beasts, forming a special symbiotic relationship with this mystic realm!
However, such a powerful force, why did it have no effect on Lu Yu?
Thinking of this, the Farm Lady questioned him with a crazed expression:
"What kind of monster are you!?"
Pfft!
As her voice fell, the crowd couldn't help but laugh out loud.
A monster was asking a human, "What kind of monster are you?"
What kind of dark humor joke is this!
Lu Yu ignored the madwoman's question.
Instead, he looked at Zhao Wen and the others standing in the center of the banquet and said leisurely:
"The banquet is about to begin. Are you going to perform as female dancers? Or be eaten as food?"
'We don't want either option!'
Everyone snarked internally, but they were also reminded by Lu Yu that although the 【Rotten Feast】 was powerful, it was not the Farm Lady's own power.
It was a boon from a Great Existence!
Therefore, corresponding rules had to be followed. Even the host of the banquet could not violate them!
Unless…
she was the one who made the rules!
The crowd, having realized this, quickly took their seats.
In the middle of it all, an interesting thing happened:
A farce broke out as several people tried to snatch the seats next to Lu Yu, but in the end, Xin Qian and Zhao Wen got them.
As for that little conflict between them and Lu Yu… that was clearly just a case of friendship born from a fight!
"This is outrageous!"
Wei Tian watched this scene, a hint of helplessness in his lazy expression.
He had wanted to sit next to Lu Yu too…
The Farm Lady watched this scene quietly, her eyes growing colder. The giant black goat behind her slowly raised its head and flicked out a long, forked tongue like a snake's tongue!
Hiss, hiss!
A blackish-red airflow like tainted blood rapidly gathered, forming a giant blood sphere two ters in diater.
It spun at high speed in the air, kicking up a gale.
Top-tier, high-rank Dark-type skill—Foul Blood Cannon!
And the target was…
Lu Yu!
'Are her true intentions about to be revealed?'
The atmosphere suddenly beca tense.
Everyone's hair stood on end. They sensed the impending danger and were ready to leave the dining table at any mont to assist Lu Yu in killing this terrifying demonic beast!
"Why hasn't it started yet?"
However, this tense atmosphere didn't last long before it was shattered by a single sentence from Lu Yu.
He was seen leaning back in his chair, his attitude casual. He didn't put up any defenses and urged lazily:
"Is the banquet hard to host? If it's so hard…
…then don't host it at all!"
So arrogant!
But one had to admit, this attitude of contempt for everything, felt really good!
If Lu Yu were to form a Borderlands Battle Corps in the future, they would probably be unable to resist joining it!
An excellent leader was a rare find!
"Arrogant human!"
The Farm Lady's gaze grew even colder.
Her stomach began to bulge irregularly, so much so that even her dress couldn't hide it. It was as if sothing was constantly writhing inside, eager to co out!
But she still endured it!
The Black Goat's threatening move just now was only to force him to leave his seat, but she hadn't expected that this guy would see through it again.
She felt as if she was being completely led by the nose!
But she couldn't turn hostile. Whether she attacked or stopped the banquet, both would count as breaking the rules of the Rotten Feast and would lead to the end of the ritual.
Without the protection of the Great Power to Resist Decay and Finality, her child would not be able to be born!
Her weakness had been grasped!
"Once the banquet begins, it cannot be stopped. I hope you won't regret it then!"
The Farm Lady said in an indifferent tone.
The Black Goat behind her also dispersed the energy sphere. She looked at the crowd and slowly said:
"I declare, the banquet begins!"
Rumble, rumble, rumble!
As her voice fell, the entire Platform of the Rotten Feast began to tremble.
The countless Goat's Giant Mouths covering the ground, walls, and ceiling let out sharp shrieks, mixed with chaotic and disorderly chanting:
"Dusk! Dusk… The End of All Things… Passing through the thorny jungle… Fresh blood spills on the great earth… Nurturing the Grass of All Living Beings… You are greater than the Great One… More dazzling than the sun… Turning Day and Night… Governing Sleep… Dark Night! Dark Night! The Origin of All Things…"
The song drifted through the air. It wasn't unpleasant to listen to, but it contained an indescribable Power of Decay that made everyone who heard it feel an intense sense of discomfort.
At the sa ti, their own spirituality began to be eroded.
It was starting to show signs of decay!
It was as if within this song… even spiritual energy was heading towards its end!
"Not good!"
Zhao Wen and the others sensed the danger and quickly activated their Spiritual Puzzles, using the balance they provided to maintain the stability of their own spirituality.
Their puzzles originated from the constant refinent of top-tier powerhouses, and their potential far exceeded this rank. They quickly suppressed the corrosion of this power.
After successfully resisting the corrosion, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"The prelude to the Rotten Feast is already so dangerous.
What kind of weird and twisted scene will follow?"
Their first thought was of Lu Yu. This guy didn't have a family to back him up, nor a systematic and excellent puzzle.
It might be powerful, but it wasn't necessarily stable.
If he suffered an Aberration, everyone present would be finished!
"Is that guy alright?"
After stabilizing her spirituality, Xin Qian hurriedly checked on Lu Yu's condition.
The others also looked over, only to find that not only was this guy unaffected, but he was also humming along with the rhythm and clapping his hands from ti to ti.
Most importantly…
he was off-key!
"…"
Are you watching a kindergarten art performance here!?
And you're even clapping to encourage them.
It was hard not to suspect that he had a hand in the song that had nearly made them lose spiritual control!
"This guy…" Xin Qian gritted her teeth, feeling that she had been thinking way too much.
Good people don't live long, a scourge lasts a thousand years!
This guy Lu Yu was even more terrifying than a scourge; he was their calamity!
Xin Qian huffily turned her head away, making up her mind never to care about this guy again.
She was afraid she would get so angry she'd have an Aberration!
The Farm Lady watched this scene, her eyes growing darker.
Rumble, rumble, rumble!
As the song continued, the entire Platform of the Rotten Feast, which was like the stomach of a demonic beast, began to tremble gently.
A vast amount of Tainted Spiritual Energy quickly gathered in the air.
If an ordinary creature entered, it would be instantly corroded and turned into a demonic beast!
Crack, crack!
Suddenly, two cracks opened in the flesh that was like a stomach wall.
Accompanied by the "clatter, clatter" of wheels, flatbed carts erged from within, transported by one-eyed flesh-and-blood masses that had only one thick, black goat hoof and were covered in bloodshot eyes.
Click-clack!
They bounced continuously on the ground, pushing the flatbed carts.
Loaded on top were large amounts of flesh and severed limbs and organs, all piled together. Under the influence of the Rotten Feast's power, the flesh began to rot and fuse, giving birth to consciousness.
They writhed with blood-colored tentacles, like slis.
They lay on the flatbed carts and were transported in front of each table.
The dense, rotten and bloody sll mixed together, forming a foul wind that rushed towards all the guests.
"Gag—"
The mont Xin Qian slled the odor, she felt the acid in her stomach churn and couldn't help but want to vomit.
The others had a similar reaction.
Even though they had seen plenty of flesh and severed limbs on the battlefield, their bodies would still have an instinctive reaction to this foul stench.
Only Wei Tian and Zhao Wen were still sowhat composed. One had been crushed countless tis in his dreams, and the other dug up corpses and cuddled with them every day.
Both were psychopaths, so they could tolerate the sll!
But their faces were still a little ugly, because this ritual was called the 【Rotten Feast】, which ant that these things were most likely…
"All who co are guests. As the host, let introduce the first course of the Rotten Feast, called the 【Flesh of the Greedy】.
They co from the believers of the Moon Lord Society. After they were turned into livestock, their greed never disappeared, making for the most delicious flesh.
Eating it can greatly enhance tainted spiritual energy. This is from my private stash!"
The Lord's Lady said with a gentle smile, her eyes on Lu Yu, who was lowering his head in thought.
She sneered inwardly and continued to explain:
"One of the rules of the Rotten Feast is that wasting food is not allowed. As guests, if you waste this precious food, then you will beco food to supplent it.
Of course…"
"You can also try to resist!"
The mont her voice fell, everyone's face turned ugly. Looking at the still-moving flesh in front of them, they felt a chill run down their spines.
Putting aside whether this thing could even be chewed or if it might crawl into their throats and suffocate them to death.
Even if they managed to swallow it, the massive amount of negative energy it contained would definitely contaminate their own spirituality, leading to a dual aberration of flesh and soul, turning them into the sa kind of demonic beasts as the farrs and farm won they had killed earlier.
But not eating… would violate the rules of the Rotten Feast!
It would invite unknown dangers!
The first stage of the Rotten Feast was already so difficult that everyone couldn't help but feel a sense of despair!
To eat? Or not to eat?
"Rather than becoming a monster and being toyed with before dying a miserable death, I'd rather fight it!"
"If my dad knew I beca a monster, he would definitely whip my corpse a hundred tis!"
"Let Lu Yu take the lead, let's kill this old thing!"
"…"
Looking at the crowd seething with the desire to resist, the Farm Lady beca more and more delighted, the corners of her mouth splitting into a terrifying arc.
To use the rules of the Rotten Feast, one had to bear the corresponding corrosion!
Once they mutated into demonic beasts, they would be controlled by the farm!
At her rcy!
If the other party didn't eat and wanted to resist, the Lady would be even happier.
She could directly borrow the power of the Rotten Feast, control the entire Dusk Farm, and allow herself to obtain combat power that surpassed the limit of the early Morning Star Rank!
An absolute open conspiracy!
"Hurry up and resist!"
The Farm Lord's Lady looked at Lu Yu with a mocking gaze, but the scene that entered her eyes made her pupils shrink to pinpricks!
Sizzle, sizzle!
Lu Yu, sitting at a nearby table, suddenly extended a dragon claw and grabbed the 【Flesh of the Greedy】. The sharp dragon claw pierced into the flesh, dripping fresh blood.
Just when everyone thought he was about to flip the table, the dragon head covering Lu Yu's head slowly opened its bloody maw, swallowed it whole, and began to chew.
Crack! Crack!
The terrifying sound echoed in the Rotten Feast Hall.
During the process, a large amount of flesh and blood splattered out, so of it landing on the table of the neighboring Xin Qian, scaring her so much that she leaned back repeatedly.
She almost left her seat!
"The taste isn't bad!" Lu Yu comnted with a satisfied expression.
Everyone waited for a while, but they didn't see the slightest sign of aberration on Lu Yu!
What kind of prodigy was this!?
Grumble, grumble—
Lu Yu, who was wiping his mouth, heard his stomach grumble. He felt the joy and desire for more food being transmitted from Eggy.
The chunk of at that was potent poison to others contained the nutrients it needed to grow.
Thinking of this, he raised his head and looked around, revealing what he thought was a kind smile, but was actually extrely ferocious:
"I'm not full yet.
I can provide a paid eating service. One million per person.
If you need it, please say 'didi'!"
Take other people's money to feed his own pet beast!
And they would still have to thank Great Benefactor Lu!
"Didi! Didi! Didi!"
The first to speak was Xin Qian next to him. She looked anxious, shouting so loudly she almost sounded like a car horn.
As long as she didn't have to eat this disgusting thing, she was willing to pay not just one million, but even two or three million!
"Didi!"
Zhao Wen followed suit, then Wei Tian and the others, all scrambling to "didi," afraid that Lu Yu would get full after eating a few, and then they would be finished.
The entire Rotten Feast Hall was in chaos.
Anyone who didn't know better would have thought it was a traffic jam scene.
"Very good!"
The corners of Lu Yu's mouth lifted.
His Dusk Battle Armor suddenly cracked open with a kaka sound. A Skeletal Dragon Head and a Crimson Dragon Head condensed on both sides of his shoulder guards, connected to a misty body, and shot out directly!
Like wind sweeping away scattered clouds, in just a few seconds, it had swallowed all the 【Flesh of the Greedy】.
"Still not full!"
Lu Yu lanted, feeling Eggy's almost bottomless abyss of hunger. A red light flickered within the dragon heads, and their target locked onto the demonic beasts pushing the carts, and then…
Under their terrified gazes, they were directly swallowed by the dragon heads controlled by Eggy.
The scene wasn't bloody, but it was bone-chilling.
"A pity, it's not even enough to fill its stomach…"
After the dragon heads shrank back to their normal size, Lu Yu picked up the tablecloth on the side and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, as elegant and poised as an ancient noble.
He raised his head to look at the silent Farm Lady in the main seat and urged:
"Madam, the appetizer is finished. Where's the main course?"
Everyone was speechless.
This guy still hadn't had enough to eat!
As expected, Lu Yu always surprised them!
The Farm Lord's Lady raised her head, her face so gloomy that water could drip from it. She looked at Lu Yu and said in a deep voice:
"You ate other people's portions, violating…"
Bang!
Before she could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by a loud bang!
Lu Yu's dragon claw slamd on the table, a crimson glow emanating from within the dragon head.
He stared at the Farm Lord's Lady and said coldly:
"Violating my foot! As the host of the banquet, you can't even feed , a single guest, to my fill. According to the rules of hospitality, it's clearly you who has violated the rules, isn't it!"
"You…"
Lu Yu's move to forestall her left the Farm Lord's Lady trembling with anger, but she was powerless to refute.
Because the Rotten Feast had truly judged her for dereliction of duty. This caused a small portion of the authority to begin shifting towards Lu Yu, making her increasingly flustered!
A guest who can eat a lot was very much welcod by the Rotten Feast!
Although this bonus was not much different from what others had, and it was impossible for him to beco the dominator of the Rotten Feast, it left her with no way to deal with him!
"Damn it!"
At this mont, the way the lady looked at Lu Yu was as if she were looking at a devil that had erged from the Abyss.
But she really hadn't expected to encounter such an eccentric as Lu Yu, who happened to be carrying a living weapon with an undying thirst and desire.
In terms of appetite, there were few in this world who could compare to Eggy.
Most importantly, it could even devour the residual power of a deity, truly refusing nothing!
If it participated in an eating contest, it would be an absolute unbeatable champion!
Even though she could see that the other party was trying to drain her dry, she had no way to stop it, because she couldn't produce any more 【Flesh of the Greedy】, and she didn't dare to terminate the banquet.
Even if it was like drinking poison to quench her thirst, it was her only lifesaving straw!
"As expected of the Mystic Realm Yellow Hair, he's bullying the Lord's Lady so much she's about to cry!"
The crowd's admiration for Lu Yu was like looking up to a high mountain.
They had never expected that there was such a way to play the Rotten Feast!
Directly eat the farm into poverty, forcing the other party to break the rules!
After all, what kind of banquet would have a rule that a guest can't be fed to their fill?
"Hmph!"
The Lord's Lady took a deep breath and then continued:
"Next up is the second course of the Rotten Feast, the Dance of Finality!"
As her voice fell, the countless blood-colored giant mouths on the floor spat out innurable blood threads, which intertwined to form beautiful black-haired won. They were dressed in maid outfits, wore thorn headdresses, and had stunning figures.
Every move they made was soul-enthralling, as if in a dream!
Click-clack!
But their lower bodies were a pair of black goat hooves, constantly stomping on the ground, thereby moving their bodies in a dance that contained an unparalleled charm.
As they danced gracefully, they spread a terrifying tainted spiritual energy, corroding all life that saw their dance!
"Oh no!"
The first reaction of Zhao Wen and the others was to close their eyes, but they found that not only could they not close them, but they were forced to open them even wider.
This forced them to desperately use their Spiritual Puzzles to resist.
However, it wasn't so simple this ti.
Within this filth, there was a mysterious Power of Finality that made even their Spiritual Puzzles tremble, as if they were reaching their end, and they began to gradually disintegrate!
Just when they thought they were done for, the Dusk Dragon Armor, which was Eggy's transford state, once again swallowed these dancers!
"Well done, Eggy!"
Even Little Mouse silently gave a thumbs-up when it saw this scene!
Stop the cultivator from looking at these flashy and useless things!
"The cold dish tastes a little better!"
Lu Yu comnted, looking at the Lord's Lady with anticipation and asking:
"Is there more?"
"…"
The Lord's Lady's face was livid. She then proceeded to start the third step of the Rotten Feast.
The Black Mountain Goat's Blood Brew!
Bottles of special blood wine brewed from the blood of the Black Mountain Goat. They looked crystal clear, but the stench of decay within was hard to conceal.
It was a product that accelerated aberration. In previous Rotten Feasts, the other farm demonic beasts could at most take a sip; any more and they would lose their reason.
Only the Farm Lord had gulped down an entire bottle, thus giving birth to the Hand of the Final Producer!
The rest had been given by the Lady to the child in her belly!
However…
Burp~
It was still drunk in one gulp by Eggy, who then let out a satisfied burp. A red halo appeared on the dragon armor.
Others only thought that the armor had beco stronger.
Only Lu Yu knew that Eggy was drunk!
Although this guy's appetite was endless, its alcohol tolerance was indeed quite average!
Seeing this, the Farm Lord's Lady fell completely silent.
Just as she was about to announce the fourth stage, Lu Yu spoke first:
"Madam, it's about ti for the main course, isn't it!"
The Lord's Lady's eyes were venomous as she gritted her teeth and said:
"The Rotten Feast must proceed according to the procedure. The main course is last!"
"Alright, stop pretending to be a stupid demonic beast.
How could you, who can control emotional power, always let your feelings show? Your child should be more than halfway born by now, right?" Lu Yu said faintly, rcilessly exposing her.
Playti was over, eating ti was over, it was ti to get down to business!
"…"
The Lord's Lady fell silent.
The venomous and angry emotions on her face instantly receded, replaced by an indifferent emotion.
It wasn't a disguise, but rather the arrogance of a human looking down on an ant!
She slowly opened her mouth, her original voice overlapping with a tender child's voice:
"You are indeed the smartest human I have ever t, to have discovered that I was using the Rotten Feast to stall for ti.
But unfortunately, it's too late…"
The mont her voice fell, the Lord's Lady slowly stood up. Her crystal-clear, plump bare feet stepped on the blood-red carpet.
The black goat behind her suddenly turned into a black fla and crashed into her body, instantly setting her on fire!
Sizzle, sizzle!
The white long dress quickly turned to ashes, and the Lord's Lady's figure began to grow taller. A huge shadow enveloped everyone, bringing with it an unparalleled oppressive aura.
Soon, the black flas dissipated, and what appeared before everyone was a weird demonic beast.
Her lower body, starting from her abdon, had turned into a huge baby face,狰狞 and twisted, showing no trace of a child's innocence, only cruelty.
Her legs had also completely disappeared, replaced by several huge black tentacles that landed on the ground, directly supporting her entire body. They were covered with countless giant mouths full of sharp teeth, looking extrely twisted!
But her upper body still retained the appearance of the Lord's Lady, her face becoming exquisite, like a ceramic doll crafted by a top artisan.
However, there were small holes on this doll's face, giving it a kind of flawed beauty, but inside was not human blood vessels and blood, but a dark liquid.
Wings of Light ford from the Dusk Radiance condensed behind her, looking tattered and entwined with a large number of black thorns.
A half-halo covered in black spines appeared above her head. These features were sowhat similar to the angels who served deities in mythology.
But this weird appearance, perhaps could only be called…
An Infant Angel!
The mont they saw this demonic beast, everyone felt an indescribable fear, and their bodies couldn't help but tremble!
It was a survival instinct that ca from the depths of their souls, erupting when they encountered a higher lifeform that could control their life and death!
"How fascinating…"
The Lord's Lady gently flapped her Wings of Light, floating in the air, looking down at Lu Yu, and slowly said:
"Do you know? Ever since I saw that Great Existence, I felt how humble and insignificant my first half of my life was. I only knew how to support my husband and raise children, living a diocre and mundane life like a mortal.
How boring that was, completely like a walking corpse!
So, I have always longed for and fantasized about becoming like that, even if it's just for a mont. For this, I am willing to pay any price!"
"But, after that one glance, I searched like a madwoman, rummaging through the entire underground shelter, but I could never see Her again, just as an ant cannot see the scenery in the brilliant starry sky.
So I was thinking, is it that mortals are like a frog at the bottom of a well, who can only see a bird fly by once in their lifeti.
A mortal can only see Her once, so… I had my first child sacrifice herself to seek the boon of the Great Existence for , so that I could beco that beautiful form.
But she didn't understand ! She even thought I was crazy and ran away from the farm, abandoning !"
At this point, the Lord's Lady's expression turned狰狞, and the fragnts on her face continued to fall off. But soon she cald down, reached out to stroke the baby face on her abdon, and said with a sickly smile and a gentle voice:
"Fortunately, I turned the Moon Lord Society into cattle and sheep, and through a ritual, I turned my husband, the farrs, and the farm won into demonic beasts.
I made the Great Existence feel my piety, and it truly granted a new child!"
"Actually, it could have been born long ago. It's just that I've been suppressing it.
After all, only a true higher lifeform would give the chance to beco the beautiful angel in the myths, to witness the Great Existence once again!
So I watered it with the power of the Rotten Feast again and again, until it successfully fused with my flesh and blood, soul, and spirituality completely. It is , and I am it!"
"As a child, it is my property.
It should dedicate everything to its mother, shouldn't it?"
As this soft whisper echoed in the hall, it sent a chill down everyone's spine!
They had thought she was a pitiful woman who had been forcibly transford by a Great Existence and forced to bear the servitor of an Evil God, but they never expected…
that the entire tragedy of the farm, all the aberrations, were actually orchestrated by her own hands!
This was not so naive and sweet girl at all, but a lunatic who was stealing the power of a Great Existence, actively suppressing the birth of an Evil God's servitor, and absorbing its nutrients, hoping with her mortal body…
to beco an angel!
A long chapter of 7,200 characters. It's a new month, so please vote with monthly tickets.
Thank you all for your continued support. I originally wanted to finish this dungeon in one go, but after writing and revising, I realized I was running out of ti.
The extra few hundred words weren't quite enough, and rushing to publish would have affected the quality and diminished the soul of this character. So, I'll wrap it up tomorrow.
I wonder if anyone guessed this plot twist. As for the identity of the Great Existence, there have actually been many hints.
