"How beautiful!"
It was unclear if she was praising the world or herself.
"Wuaahhh—"
She opened her Snow-white Lotus-root Arms as if to embrace the entire world, and the infant on her abdon let out a weird cry, sweeping over them like a Storm.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The terrifying Sound Wave contained a horrifying impact, shattering all the ceramic plates.
Although everyone had covered their ears in advance, they could still feel a stabbing Pain in their eardrums, their faces contorting in agony!
Rumble!
The entire Platform of the Rotten Feast, the very top of this Flesh and Blood building, began to crack open like a blooming Flower Bud…
A Flower of Flesh and Blood blood completely in the center of the farm!
The world brightened, and the Dusk Radiance cascaded down!
The scene of an eternal Setting Sun once again appeared before everyone!
It seed as if the Lady had given up on the Banquet and released the Shackles of the Platform of the Rotten Feast, but this did not give them the slightest sense of security, because…
They were about to face an Angel!
Even if it wasn't a true Superior Being, just a fake creation constructed by stealing a Great Power, it had truly fused with the power of an Evil God Servitor!
The Lord's Lady, in her Infant Angel form, looked down at everyone and said flatly:
"Although your arrival has disrupted The Plan, forcing to give up the Rotten Feast and rge with my child to be born ahead of schedule, leaving this Perfect form with a slight flaw.
But it doesn't matter. The farm can no longer restrain .
As long as I eat you all and go out into the world to find more life to replenish my nutrients, it will be fine…"
"I will… I will surely beco the most beautiful life, just like She!"
She stretched out her hand, and a vast amount of dim-yellow radiance, like fireflies, gathered and transford into a giant Hamr, covered with nurous Dark Green thorny barbs, as if she held the Dusk's Sun in her hand.
She raised this Hamr, dozens of tis larger than her own body, looked at the people on the ground, and pronounced Judgnt from on high:
"With the Hamr of Twilight, I grant you the Hour of Finality!"
Boom!
Boundless Spiritual Energy boiled and roared like a Tsunami.
The Light of Dusk dimd at this mont, and the entire Mystic Realm plunged into the Night!
The End of All Things had arrived!
She was preparing to bury everyone here, along with this decaying farm!
"This is bad!"
Just as everyone's expressions turned grim and they summoned all their pet beasts, pouring their Spiritual Energy into their Spiritual Puzzles, preparing for a desperate fight.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
The flesh of the Platform of the Rotten Feast, after cracking open, suddenly erupted, lashing into the air like writhing ropes, turning into countless Eyeless Flesh and Blood Snakes.
Like pythons hunting prey, they wrapped tightly around the Hamr of Twilight, binding it in mid-air!
"How is this possible!?" The Lady's indifferent emotions were shattered, and shock appeared in her eyes!
"What's going on!?"
Everyone else was also stunned. Why would the farm attack the Lady? They subconsciously turned their heads, only to see a dumbfounding scene!
Lu Yu, who was originally in the Guest's Seat, had at so point taken the Farm Lady's previous position.
A vast Shadow spread from beneath his feet, transforming into the Phantom of a giant Black Mountain Goat with many Black Thorns wrapped around its body, guarding him from behind…
Guarding the Master of this farm!
Lu Yu leaned back in his chair and said calmly:
"Welco to my Rotten Feast!"
The mont his voice fell, the entire scene was thrown into shock!
Lu Yu had beco the Farm owner!
What kind of weird Reversal was this!?
Everyone's mouths hung open, feeling once again that they couldn't keep up with Lu Yu's Thoughts!
Wei Tian's eyes widened in astonishnt as he said:
"I think I understand what he wants to do!"
"What!?" Everyone looked over, their eyes filled with confusion.
"You should rember, from the Intelligence we gathered and what the Lady said, that once the Rotten Feast begins, as long as the Ritual is ongoing, she can resist 'Finality.' In other words, as long as the Rotten Feast and the farm do not disappear, she is Undying."
Seeing everyone nod, Wei Tian continued to explain:
"But the Rotten Feast is not the Lady's power.
It is a product born from the influence of a Great Existence's Rules, and it has a core Essence, which is 'To Eat'!
The more you eat, the more weight you have. But a Guest is ultimately a Guest; it's impossible To Turn from Guest to Host.
But…
If the host of a Banquet leaves, then there are two possible outcos. One is that the Banquet ends early and the guests disperse.
The second is…"
Zhao Wen interjected, "The guests take over the Banquet themselves, start a new Banquet, and take control of the entire farm through the 'Rotten Feast'!"
As his words fell, everyone's expressions were filled with horror!
They had thought Lu Yu was being aggressive the whole ti just to find the Lady's Weakness, angering her into giving birth early so he could kill her during her Weakened Period!
But when they learned that the Lady was not the Main Body gestating the Evil God Servitor, but wanted to replace it, and had successfully stalled for ti to get past her Weakened Period, they had already felt it was hopeless.
But they never expected, that Lu Yu was never targeting the Lady from the start.
He was first nullifying her undying nature, and then…
Usurping the Magpie's Nest!
Causing a heaven-shaking Reversal of their roles!
He had directly beco the evil party!
The Infant Angel might be strong, but if I beco the Farm owner, how will you deal with that, Your Excellency?
Most crucially, even if the Lady had discovered this, she could only act prematurely, because Lu Yu had already cracked the Rules of the Rotten Feast.
She couldn't use the 'Rotten Feast' to counter Lu Yu.
Instead, because she couldn't provide enough food for the Banquet, she would violate the Rules and invite Punishnt. At that point, she might be severely injured, making her even more vulnerable!
Therefore, abandoning the Rotten Feast was inevitable!
Lu Yu's sudden move to To Flip the Table was just to prevent his opponent from acting rashly like a Cornered Dog Jumps the Wall and depleting the power of the 'Rotten Feast' prematurely!
Every single step had the opponent calculated to death!
This level of strategy was beyond their comprehension.
A true Natural-born General!
Crushing people with Overwhelming Montum!
Even if they knew The Plan now, if they traveled back to the beginning of the Rotten Feast, without Lu Yu's terrifying appetite and his ans of resisting Contamination, they would be unable to complete The Plan!
This guy was a God at conquering Mystic Realms!
"But, what if the Lady just sits back down?"
Everyone realized a problem.
If the Lady copied Lu Yu's actions, wouldn't he have shot himself in the foot?
"It would be better if she really ca back!"
Lu Yu had long anticipated this.
Anyone else could co back and replicate his actions, but the Lord's Lady alone could not.
Because the Evil God Servitor in her body and the Rotten Feast were of the sa origin.
The repeated Ritual Offerings of the Rotten Feast were, in fact, the Devouring of the Banquet's Rules to strengthen herself.
Before, as the master of the Rotten Feast, the Lady held an absolute advantage.
But the mont she detached herself, although she broke free from her restraints, she was also marked as prey by the Rotten Feast and could no longer be accepted back!
If no new Banquet master used the Rules, it would have been fine; she would just wait to be completely devoured and fused later.
But now, with Lu Yu as the new Farm owner, things were different.
He directly used the Platform of the Rotten Feast to Seal the Mystic Realm and prevent her from escaping!
"I believe the Lady can already feel the malice from the entire farm. But this feeling really hurts…"
Under the Battle Armor, Lu Yu grimaced in Pain, far from as relaxed as everyone imagined.
To Wear the Crown, One Must Bear Its Weight!
To control the power of the 'Rotten Feast' with a Mortal Body, even by cleverly borrowing the Rules, one would inevitably suffer Corrosion.
This was also why the Lord's Lady had decisively given up, not believing anyone could take her place.
But she never expected…
Lu Yu had a Taboo Rank!
The usually passive Spiritual Puzzle, 'The Herder', also began to manifest. A mysterious Pasture Phantom condensed in the depths of his Soul and began to counter-corrode the source of the 'Rotten Feast'!
Although he didn't need to worry about spiritual Contamination, Lu Yu had to resist the all-encompassing Corrosion of his Flesh and Blood by the Rotten Feast.
It was equivalent to constantly enduring the intense agony of Thorns Crushing the Body!
A Quick Battle, Quick Resolution was necessary!
Otherwise, even if he defeated the Lady, his own bloodline would be contaminated!
A true "Kill a thousand enemies, lose eight hundred of your own" tactic!
"Pain is The Ladder of Ascent for !"
A red light flickered within Lu Yu's Dragon Head, making it look even more ferocious. He looked at the shocked Lady in the sky and grinned nacingly:
"Since the Lady can't provide the food, then…"
"You can be the Main Course yourself!"
Crack! Crack! Crack!
The mont his voice fell, the Eyeless Flesh and Blood Snakes that were the incarnation of the Platform of the Rotten Feast strengthened again, suddenly tightening and constricting the Hamr of Twilight until it couldn't bear it anymore.
With a bang, it exploded, scattering into a sky full of Golden light spots!
"Mortal, you cannot obstruct my path!"
The Lord's Lady's voice was icy. The wings behind her swept out like blades, slashing behind her and colliding with the Spider Silk longsword.
Sparks flew, and a Shockwave surged!
"Ying!"
Little Spider burst out from a Void Fissure behind her, wielding a longsword that carried Dark Moon Sword Qi with every swing.
"Sinking World Moon!"
"Sinking World Moon!"
"…"
As always, Little Spider used her Ultimate Move like a Normal Attack, and during the attack, she condensed countless steel-needle-like Spider Silks, which rained down overwhelmingly!
"Wing Light Blink!"
The Lord's Lady reacted quickly.
Her Dusk Wings folded, and a vast Dusk Radiance surged, gathering around her like a miniature Setting Sun.
The next mont,
Bang!
The radiance instantly exploded, turning into thousands of light needles that shot out in all directions, colliding with Little Spider's sword qi and Spider Silk!
Rumble!
Amidst the violent roars, terrifying Spiritual Energy Fluctuations surged in the air.
All the Dark Moon Sword Qi and Spider Silk were torn apart. Little Spider's figure flickered through The Void, using the Spider Silk as footholds to launch another surprise attack!
'Lingering Twilight Light!'
The Lady waved her hand, and the Dusk Radiance swept forth, forming a huge Barrier that blocked Little Spider's advance!
Boom!
But at that mont, a roar ca from below.
A blood-red figure shattered the earth and used the recoil to charge forward like a cannonball!
The Imperial Black Crimson Dragon Ant!
Its body was suffused with boiling Qi and Blood. All the Strength Rings within its body instantly unfurled, reflecting the Phantom of a Primordial Star Field.
It was as if an ancient Ant King had erged to crush everything!
Thousand Faces Armant—Ghost Shattering Star Fist!
Vast Spiritual Energy superimposed on pure Physical Strength brought an unimaginably destructive power, shaking the Mystic Realm's space and making it emit "kaka" sounds.
Countless Ghosts appeared, accompanied by the Wailing of Ghosts and Howling of Wolves.
Wherever it passed, the ground turned to Scorched Earth!
The target was the abdon where the Infant Angel was!
"Stupid!"
Seeing this, the Lady's gaze was calm. She swung the giant Tentacle on her lower body, colliding with the Imperial Black Crimson Dragon Ant!
Imnse power was concentrated at a single point and slamd onto the Tentacle!
Boom!
The Tentacle shook violently, and a huge gap was instantly smashed into it.
Splatters of Flesh and Blood flew from the torn area, yet it forcibly withstood the blow!
"There's more to co!"
Little Mouse, in its Imperial Black Crimson Dragon Ant form, sneered inwardly. The Ghosts from the Thousand-Faced Soul Tree instantly climbed onto the Tentacle, imbuing it with Ghostly Power and absorbing the Soul Aura contained in its body!
"What a Weirdness power!"
The Lady felt a warning from her abdon.
Her gaze hardened, and she made a decisive choice!
With a crack, the Tentacle broke off and then instantly exploded, turning into a vast Decay Poison Mist that swept out. A large portion of it landed on the Imperial Black Crimson Dragon Ant, and black patterns instantly appeared, starting to Corrupt its Carapace.
This was not corrosion by Toxins, but rather a power that accelerated the passage of Life Force, leading it toward senescence!
Its na—Decay!
Even the boiling Dragon Qi couldn't resist this strange Power of Decay. It scared Little Mouse so much that it retreated repeatedly, trying various powers like Shadow and Soul, finally managing to suppress it with the power of the Thousand-Faced Soul Tree!
"It can even resist Angelic Power…"
The Lady's eyes were thoughtful.
The infant's face on her abdon suddenly squird, appeared on her smooth back, and opened its Giant Mouth:
"Roar!"
A dark-hued Dusk light, initially the size of a grain of rice, instantly expanded and shot toward a spot in The Void, becoming a huge Pillar of Light!
Dusk Attribute skill—Dusk Cannon!
Rip!
At the sa ti, a Void Fissure opened, and Little Spider erged. Although surprised that her actions had been predicted, she didn't stop, extending a small, fair hand and clenching it in The Void!
"Void Force Field!"
Boom!
Void Power spread out, instantly enveloping the area in front of her, forming a purple Light Screen that distorted and rotated the force field within!
Anyone who entered would be rcilessly crushed!
The best defense… is offense!
Boom!
The mont the two collided, the 'Dusk Cannon' plunged into the Void Force Field.
Most of the Dusk Halo was shredded, but the remaining power still broke through the force field and reached Little Spider, where it was blocked by a Spider Silk Shield Formation!
Rustle!
As a Price, all the Spider Silk rapidly decayed like fallen autumn leaves, turning to Ashes!
"The power of aging!"
Lu Yu's gaze hardened. He was even more certain about the specific identity of the Great Existence behind the Infant Angel.
He continued to issue commands to his two pet beasts through the Soul Contract, forming a strong encirclent to kill her.
However, with the coordination between the Lady and the mysterious infant Servitor, coupled with their advantage in Ranks, they actually gained the upper hand.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The battle grew more intense. Boundless Spiritual Energy swept through, constantly shaking the entire Mystic Realm.
The Great Earth cracked inch by inch under this Overwhelming Pressure, and many buildings began to crumble!
The spread of the Morning Star's Overwhelming Pressure, in particular, made it difficult for the others to even help, and they would likely end up Dragging others down!
"So… so strong!" Xin Qian murmured, feeling the gap between herself and Lu Yu widening!
She looked at the Dragon-armored Silhouette sitting at the center of the Platform of the Rotten Feast, her feelings complicated.
It was hard to imagine that Lu Yu, who had no Family Resources and no powerful Beast Tar Elder to guide him, had co this far in just over half a year.
He had left them so far behind they could barely see his Silhouette!
The gap between Lu Yu and the nine top-tier Prodigies of the Borderlands was now only a matter of Ti and Ranks!
"This guy is so strong it's almost unbearable!" Helian Tu laughed loudly, but he didn't back down, his eyes surging with Battle Intent.
Once he condensed his 49 volcanoes, he would try to challenge Lu Yu and see if he could catch up to the footsteps of such a Monster.
Zhao Wen's expression was complicated. He knew Lu Yu was several years younger than him, yet now the Battle Shockwaves were almost strong enough to kill him.
He was already starting to consider… whether he should change his age and try to pass as one of Lu Yu's Juniors in the next batch!
As for Wei Tian… he had already beco withdrawn!
He had made up his mind to go back and sleep for a few more months. He absolutely would not co out until he had perfected his Dreamscape puzzle!
The other geniuses had similar reactions, feeling that coming to this Genius Battle was a huge mistake…
The mistake was not bringing their other good Brothers and buddies along to experience the Fear of Being Dominated by Lu Yu!
However, there were Strategists among them.
They had long since activated their Miniature Caras, recording everything from entering the Mystic Realm to now, preparing to sell it for a good price to numb the trauma to their souls with money.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Amidst the violent roars, even the Lord's Lady was forced back step by step under this powerful offensive, an impatient look on her face.
"Damn it!"
She spread her wings, and the Thorns entwined on them flung out a large number of seeds. She herself released the Light of Dusk, and a mist rose!
【Secret Art—Dusk Shadow Paradise!】
Hiss! Hiss!
The Lady directly constructed a Dusk Ecology that could accelerate plant growth, causing nurous seeds to sprout and grow crazily, turning into hundreds of giant Thorns, vines, and various other plants.
Covered in a Dusk Halo, they enveloped more than half the farm.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Like the Tentacles of a terrifying deep-sea demonic beast, they lashed towards Little Spider!
"Ying!"
Little Spider's Mind's Eye spread out its 'Mind Net' to cover the surroundings as she continuously dodged.
The giant thorny tentacles landed on The Great Earth, instantly tearing open huge cracks!
Getting hit by that would an certain death!
"Ying! Ying!"
Faced with this torrential assault, even Little Spider was sowhat overwheld. After multiple Void Blinks, she was caught off-guard, and several Thorns swept toward her, only to be shattered by a punch from Little Mouse in its Imperial Black Crimson Dragon Ant form!
However, faced with the increasing coverage of plants, they were quickly trapped.
More Thorns and vines climbed up, rapidly forming a giant Spherical Cage, and a Dusk Light Screen unfolded, sealing off the surrounding Void!
"It's ti to end this!"
Seeing this, the Lord's Lady slowly raised a hand. The half-angelic Aura above her head shone, and the power of Decay rapidly gathered, forming one Black Gold arrow after another.
Any life pierced by even one of these arrows would have its life stolen, its Soul and body decaying!
And at this mont, thousands of arrows, dense and packed, covered the sky!
It was as if an Angel from the Bible was carrying out the final Judgnt of a great Deity upon a Mortal!
"End it!"
'Secret Art—Lingering Light Arrow Rain!'
The mont her voice fell, countless arrows whistled through the air in an instant, riddling the "Dusk Shadow Paradise" cage!
"Is it over?"
Seeing this, everyone's expressions were tense.
Could it be that even a Monster as powerful as Lu Yu was going to lose?
Crack!
However, the next mont, the cage shattered into countless fragnts and dissipated into Ashes at a visible rate.
As for Little Mouse and Little Spider, they also dissipated into two soul fragnts, with no sign of Flesh and Blood!
It wasn't a Phantom!
It was a Mimicked Mouse Clone!
The power of Myriad Transformations that could achieve complete Deception!
"When were they replaced!?"
Seeing this, the Lord's Lady's Pupils shrinking to pinpricks, a huge sense of crisis welled up in her heart.
The infant face on her abdon also began to search rapidly, then turned to the northwest, locking onto two figures shrouded in a Shadow Light Screen!
Little Mouse in its Imperial Black Crimson Dragon Ant form and…
Little Spider in her Spirit Corrosion Form!
"Ying!"
Little Spider was clad in Spirit Corrosion Battle Armor, and purple patterns had already crawled all over her skin, making her look mysterious and noble.
'Void Skin' was activated, and the ancient Holy Seal had also taken shape!
'Void Holy Seal!'
Boom!
Spirit Corrosion Form Void Skin pre-charged.
The Void Holy Seal, prepared through multiple ans, plunged into The Void and instantly landed on the Lord's Lady's head.
The ancient purple Mark shone, illuminating the entire Mystic Realm.
Boom!
Before she could react, the space she was in was rapidly suppressed, rendering her immobile!
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Little Mouse also acted imdiately, throwing out hundreds of Seeds of Conversion, which turned into streaks of light and entered the Lord's Lady's body!
However, the purpose was not conversion, but…
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The Seeds of Conversion exploded directly inside her, turning into a terrifying Soul Impact that directly rocked her Soul, causing a brief Daze as her Consciousness descended into Chaos.
"I… will… not… die…"
The Lord's Lady's intense and crazed Lingering Attachnt surged, and she rapidly gathered her Consciousness, preparing to forcibly tear apart this suppressed space!
"It's ti to end this!"
Lu Yu's gaze beneath his Dragon armor was calm. He had been preparing for a long ti, even willing to sacrifice two Mouse Clones as bait, all for this mont!
He stood up, and the Platform of the Rotten Feast beneath him decayed and crumbled at a visible rate, turning into Fine Powder that scattered with the wind!
The Black Mountain Goat Phantom behind him also vanished into nothingness with unwillingness!
The reason he hadn't used the power of the Rotten Feast for support was because it had already beco Provisions for The Herder Puzzle!
And now, it was finally finished eating!
"Witness… the power of the Pasture!"
The thought flashed through Lu Yu's mind.
The next mont, the mysterious Pasture Phantom cast its Reflection behind him. The Chaos Egg at the center continuously spat out chaotic-colored mist, instantly enveloping the entire grassland, making it look even more mysterious!
Kaka!
The Pasture behind him changed, but this ti it wasn't the Dragon's Pasture, but…
The Crimson Pasture!
Within the Pasture, Crimson Grass was everywhere, like a boundless Sea of Blood!
Boom!
The Phantom instantly poured into the Dusk Dragon Armor, causing his form to change rapidly.
Soon, he had transford into a giant true dragon covered in crimson Scales with many mysterious patterns, a spiral Dragon Horn on its head, and Blood-colored Dragon Wings coalescing behind it, looking ancient and divine!
The Complete Form of Eggy was prone to Eternal Hunger, but with the support of the Spiritual Puzzle, Lu Yu could briefly transform into the Crimson Dragon form with Eggy!
Boom!
Lu Yu, in his Dragon Beast form, beat his wings, triggering a terrifying airflow that turned into a Storm. Accompanied by sonic booms, his figure rushed in front of the Lord's Lady in the blink of an eye.
The Lord's Lady also recovered from her brief Daze. Seeing the Giant Dragon before her, she roared:
"Scram!"
The Light of Dusk swept out, but it was instantly shattered upon colliding with the Dragon Claw!
"Roar!"
The blood-colored Dragon shadow roared, as if the Resentnt of the ancient Deicide Dragon King had revived, yearning to Stomp on Dusk!
"I am the Enemy of Dusk!"
Lu Yu roared, stretching out a huge Dragon Claw and grabbing the Lord's Lady.
At the sa ti, his Dragon Wings suddenly accelerated, changing direction and smashing toward the farm like a teorite, instantly causing a terrifying explosion!
Rumble!
Amidst the terrifying roars, a horrific Earthquake spread, and the Aftermath expanded, scaring everyone into retreating repeatedly, even needing to rely on their pet beasts to defend against this terrifying Aftermath!
It made them feel imnse pressure!
"This is…"
They managed to raise their heads and saw a small Mushroom Cloud slowly rising, silencing all things!
The next mont, a Shockwave Ring kicked up a fierce wind, blowing away the dust and smoke!
Only then did everyone realize that the once-mysterious farm had now beco a giant Crater!
At the bottom, Lu Yu, in his Crimson Dragon form, was pinning her down with his Dragon Claw, suppressing her completely.
He looked at the Lord's Lady, who was still trying to struggle, and his ferocious Dragon Head opened its Bloody Maw…
"No…"
Seeing this, the Lord's Lady's Eyes splitting with rage.
Just as she was about to speak, her vision was engulfed by Crimson Light!
Crimson Dragon Breath!
Rumble!
Under everyone's shocked gazes, Lu Yu, in his Crimson Dragon form, grabbed the Lady's head and covered her face-to-face with his Dragon Breath. The scene was utterly brutal!
Rustle!
Countless beams of light shot out, continuously intertwining, forming a huge Pillar of Light that soared into the sky, its dazzling blood-colored radiance shining.
It overshadowed the eternal Dusk scenery, as if a killing hell from The Abyss had descended here!
After a full few minutes, the Dragon Breath finally ended, and the blood-colored Pillar of Light gradually dissipated, allowing everyone to see the scene within.
The Crater had expanded further.
The Lord's Lady was on the verge of death, her exquisite and beautiful face now only half-remaining. In the empty Cavity, black liquid could be seen flowing.
As for her body, it had been ravaged by the Dragon Breath, leaving only her upper half. The rest of her wings, tentacles, and left arm had all turned to nothingness.
The infant face on her abdon was also in tatters.
In truth, she still had so strength left, but she no longer resisted, like a broken rag doll discarded on the ground, staring blankly at the sky with her one remaining eye!
Staring at that Dusk!
She…
had suffered Failure!
She was just one step away from possessing the sa beautiful form as the Great Existence!
'Sure enough, that is a domain unattainable by Mortals!'
Thinking of this, she suddenly started to laugh:
"Ha… Ha… Hahaha…"
At the sa ti, the broken infant face on her abdon began to squirm, as if it was struggling with sothing.
She frowned and murmured:
"Without the power to suppress it, it struggles to be born. Sure enough, everything will betray , only beauty will not…"
"Do you really think you could suppress an Evil God Servitor close to a Superior Being for decades?"
Hearing this, the Lord's Lady's laughter stopped.
Her nearly shattered eyes stared intently at Lu Yu, questioning:
"What do you an?"
The crimson Dragon Beast Lu Yu had transford into did not answer, instead watching as the infant face on her abdon struggled and crawled out.
However, because its body was too broken, it looked more like a Light Gold Sli, a bit like Pudding.
One could vaguely make out its original Beast Form.
"Gu… gu…"
After detaching from its Mother, it didn't rush to escape, nor did it fear the Crimson Dragon before it.
Instead, it squird toward the Lord's Lady's face.
As it approached, it opened an Abyssal Giant Mouth like a Black Hole.
"That's right, I was the one who sealed you. You can eat now!"
The corners of the Lord's Lady's mouth turned up in a contemptuous smile as she watched it move to her side…
Then, instead of the expected Pain, her cheek was gently licked, and she heard a tender voice, speaking in poorly pronounced Human Common Language:
"Mo… Mother…"
Just a few words, still tinged with so static, but they made the Lord's Lady's eyes widen as she looked in disbelief at the Evil God Servitor she had been using and devouring all this ti!
This thing…
was actually calling her Mother!
"It seems the Great Existence you spoke of truly holds the Authority of Fertility and granted you one of the Children…"
Lu Yu shook his head.
He had already discovered the problem when he was devouring the Rules of the Rotten Feast.
His Eye of Truth saw that the Evil God Servitor in the Lord's Lady's belly, despite its Congenital Deficiency, still contained an extrely high level of origin.
Even if it wasn't a superior Servitor, it wasn't far off!
Although the 'Rotten Feast' contained powerful High-dinsional Contamination, the power of its Rules was limited; it wasn't enough to suppress it for a full fifty years.
And during the battle, he had noticed that this Evil God Servitor clearly had many opportunities to break away from its Main Body, but its movents were restrained, as if it didn't dare to use its full power for fear of tearing its mother's body apart!
Seeing this, Lu Yu finally understood everything!
All along, it had willingly accepted being fused and devoured by its Main Body.
The so-called Fetal Movent was not a desire to be born, but the instinct of a new life longing to see its Mother.
Although it was touching, it was a good thing for Lu Yu.
If it hadn't been so careful in protecting its mother, he wouldn't have been able to seize the opportunity to heavily injure it!
Good job, kid!
"Why… why is it like this…"
The Lord's Lady quickly understood everything, and the remaining half of her face gradually twisted…
Because she realized that the dream she had been chasing all along was actually by her side the whole ti.
It was like an Adventurer who spent his life chasing Gold, only to discover on his deathbed that his grandfather had hidden a large chest of Gold under the house and had long told him to open it as a surprise, but he had ignored it!
The Great Existence had indeed granted her the most "beautiful" thing, but she had destroyed it with her own hands!
She had abandoned everything.
In the end, both she and it were left with only broken bodies, becoming…
hideously ugly!
It was as if Fate had played a joke on her!
This regret was countless tis more painful than Death!
Lu Yu looked at the nearly broken Lord's Lady and asked his final question:
"Who exactly is the Great Existence?"
Although he already had a guess, he needed to confirm it. If it was related to that one, it would be enough to shake the entire Alliance!
"The Great Existence…"
Hearing this question, the Lord's Lady's mories began to flash back to fifty years ago, to the mont she saw the perfect form of that Great Existence.
Just one glance had srized her!
It was a beauty indescribable by Mortals, the ultimate evolution that life yearned for!
She slowly opened her mouth, but she didn't answer Lu Yu's question. Instead, she looked at the broken "child" and sang a final Lullaby in a Weakness voice:
"Dusk… Dusk… The End of All Things… through the forest of Thorns…"
As the song gently drifted, the Evil God Servitor also slowly prostrated itself, like a sleeping child.
A Dark Gold radiance lit up on their bodies simultaneously, and they slowly turned into specks of light, which were swallowed by the Pasture along with the previous 'Contaminated Lord's Hand'.
This initiated an evolution for the Spiritual Puzzle.
In the mysterious Pasture, there had only been the Chaos Egg, the Fence burning with Silver Flas, and the grassland.
But now, a Tiny Setting Sun rose, hanging in a corner of the Pasture, emitting a Dusk Halo and a faint Dusk Ecology mist, promoting the rapid growth of the grass to a height of half a ter.
It was just a pity that there were no Livestock, otherwise it would have been a beautiful picture of "cattle and sheep appearing amidst the rustling grass in the wind."
The Pasture, after its tamorphosis, seed to represent the Finality of all things, the fall of the curtain, yet it also seed to be gestating sothing new.
The Chaos Egg had also grown a bit, becoming even more mysterious, as if it could suppress all Order, and it was constantly contracting and expanding…
Finally, it spat out two Golden Balls of Light, one large and one small.
Seeing this, Lu Yu's expression was one of pleasant surprise, because a piece of information had appeared in his mind.
