Hum!
The Corpse Mountain Mask blood with radiance, turning into a pale stream of light that shot toward Eggy in the sky!
The next mont…
Boom!
A vast Light of Evolution instantly enveloped it, like a pale sun, illuminating the entire Imperial Capital Martial Arena.
Beneath the light were the dumbfounded expressions of countless people.
"The Imagination Object really was compatible… Just how many more trump cards does this guy, Lu Yu, have?"
"I'm wondering if Lu Yu even has an Imagination Object prepared for the Imperial Black Crimson Dragon Ant? I'm suddenly looking forward to it. What kind of Spirit Corrosion Form would an absolutely violent Dragon Ant have? Can soone please force him into a desperate situation!"
"What kind of joke is that? Mu Mu from the Pluto Domain has already activated her Spirit Corrosion Form.
She's already in the first echelon of this entrance examination. Even that guy with the Law Seed is at most on par with her.
I guess only the Top-tier Seniors from the previous years have a chance of suppressing Lu Yu!"
"But I'm also really looking forward to what a dragon in Spirit Corrosion Form will look like!"
"I'd call this year's Imperial Capital University Entrance Examination the Strongest in History. No, wait, there was one year that was more exaggerated, but those few are now…"
"…"
The crowd was abuzz with discussion.
The senior brothers and sisters who had already enrolled at Imperial Capital University and were just here for the drama, being curious onlookers of the junior brothers and sisters, were already trembling with fear!
These guys hadn't even enrolled yet, and they could already hang them up and beat them!
Although they were also geniuses, in the face of prodigies, hard work was aningless!
The five teachers exchanged glances, and Li Shu couldn't help but snark:
"This kid is just too much of a troublemaker!"
He ca here to be an exam proctor to slack off and maybe receive so gifts on the side. In the end, he didn't get any gifts, and he was even more tired!
Mao Guixian also rolled her eyes and said helplessly, "Everyone, summon all your pet beasts.
Better that than not being able to provide reinforcents in ti!"
The others were at a loss for words and obediently summoned their own pet beasts.
It was clearly just an Entrance Examination, but it felt more nerve-wracking than going to war!
'Hmph, so what if you're outstanding? You're still going to be fild by and edited into all sorts of poses!'
Qi Wei snarked, but his body was very honest, filming from a handso angle.
It wasn't that he wanted to film Lu Yu… He just couldn't accept that what he fild would be a pile of trash. He had professional integrity!
In reality, his filming skills were average.
It was only when filming people like Lu Yu and The Disciple that he would exhibit extraordinary talent.
Perhaps this was the potential of a King of Swagger Hunter!
That's right, that's it!
"How utterly despairing!"
Yu Xiyan pursed her lips, her eyes growing even more obsessed.
As expected, Lu Yu was just as he was in countless futures, strong to the point of despair!
For a ti, she had changed her approach, wanting to conquer Lu Yu by force, constantly challenging him, but the result was…
Death!
Countless deaths!
In those futures, her corpses were enough to fill the entire Great Abyss City!
That's why she could feel Lu Yu's terror even more!
Even in the real world, relying on her Foreknowledge, she had conquered many precious Mystic Realms that would beco famous in the future but had yet to appear, plundering many fated opportunities, yet she could only barely keep up with his pace.
"This kid still had sothing up his sleeve!"
Luo Zisong was dumbfounded.
He had previously thought Lu Yu might have the Bloodline of the Ancient Sun King… but thinking about it now, that was probably not it. It was more likely the Treasure-seeking Mouse Bloodline.
Just these two Imagination Objects that could match his own pet beasts, there were only a few in his own private stash that could compare!
"Brother-in-law… so strong!"
Chiyue Honglian's eyes were also wide. She thought it was a good thing Lilith hadn't co, otherwise that Big Wooden Cabinet's eyes would have turned red!
She would have definitely forced them to make the situation irreversible and dragged Lu Yu back to the Succubus Nest!
"What a strong guy!"
As the target, Mu Mu's perception was even more direct.
She could feel an oppressive aura that was like an abyss, like a prison!
However, she didn't stop him. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, revealing a crazed smile as she murmured:
"The stronger the opponent, the better.
It's the perfect chance for to feel…"
"The Feeling of Approaching Death!"
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
A fierce wind swept across the entire martial arena. It carried no trace of ice crystals, yet it was bone-chillingly cold, as if it ca from the Extre Frozen Earth.
At this mont, the Spirit Corrosion Form's evolution had also ended, and the light gradually dissipated.
Eggy was once again revealed to everyone, making their pupils tremble violently!
Its appearance was simply…
Too overbearing!
Its size had expanded from the original eight ters to thirteen.
Behind it, enormous Dragon Wings ford from countless white bones had appeared, covering the sky and blocking out the sun, as if in the mortal world, it was holding up the Dragon of the Bones of All Living Beings!
Its original dragon head, and even its entire body, were covered in white Barbed Bone Armor, making it look even more ferocious and brutal. Its Dragon Horns were winding, covered in the Power of White Bones, capable of easily piercing through anything.
Even its Hundred Eyes had transford into Pale Dragon Eyes, radiating Corpse Spiritual Energy, which ford hollowly smiling Corpse Masks that slowly floated around its body!
Eggy looked at Mu Mu on the arena!
Rumble!
Where its gaze fell, the earth cracked and shattered, like an Earth Dragon Turning Over. Amidst the violent tremors, a large number of bone spurs swept out, tearing everything apart.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
However, the instant the bone spurs were about to reach Mu Mu, countless cold lights flashed, and scythe blades slashed out, pulverizing everything!
Top-tier High-tier Skill—Death Nether Scythe Blades!
The massive number of white bones were cut into several pieces, instantly crumbling and scattering as Bone Dust!
The giant Death Nether Dragon Centipede coiled, guarding Mu Mu, its fierce gaze fixed on its opponent.
Although the process was cool, the Death Nether Dragon Centipede in its Spirit Corrosion Form was not feeling so good.
Its soul body began to tremble constantly.
Because these white bones contained a mysterious Tranquil Aura, like facing an Eternal Cetery.
The mont it ca into contact with the attack, its soul felt a sense of weariness, almost forcing it out of its Spirit Corrosion Form and into a Deep Sleep!
Fortunately, it broke free in ti and was not affected!
Hiss—
The Death Nether Dragon Centipede beca even more berserk. There was no fear in its eyes.
If this was the extent of its opponent's strength, then it was still confident it could crush it!
Roar!
Seeing this scene, Eggy, in its Mortal World Bone Dragon form, rotated its pale dragon eyes, a look of satisfaction appearing!
To be able to block twenty percent of its power, it was indeed a good opponent. The only drawback was…
It looked too delicious.
Looking at it for too long made it feel a little hungry!
It was a pity that its master had said it couldn't eat the pet beasts of the contestants!
At this thought, Eggy felt a little dejected. After all, the Arena Tournant had been going on for a whole day, and it hadn't eaten anything!
It had originally planned to sleep until it went ho, but it didn't expect to be called up to fight midway!
"A cetery-type ability?" Mu Mu's expression was grave.
She wasn't going to wait any longer either:
"Attack!"
Hiss—
The soul runes in the Death Nether Dragon Centipede's single crimson eye flowed as it looked at Eggy!
Super-tier Skill—Soul-Hooking Eye!
A ghostly blue Soul Curtain spread out. Mu Mu had originally prepared a bunch of skills to restrict her opponent's movents, but in the end, Eggy just watched with clear eyes, not dodging or evading, and was directly enveloped by it!
'This guy… is a bit dazed!'
Seeing this, Mu Mu was also stunned.
She didn't expect it to be so easy. No matter how many corpses were on the dragon's body, it couldn't possibly defend its soul!
'Forget it, let's just end this early!'
Mu Mu frowned slightly and said, imitating The Disciple's tone:
"The ga… is over!"
As her voice fell, the soul light curtain around Eggy changed.
Countless Intangible Hands stretched out and began to pull at its soul. Their power was imnse.
Even a Peak Morning Star Rank would be instant-killed if caught off guard!
Mu Mu turned around coolly, never looking back at explosions. Just when she thought it was all over, she suddenly realized…
The referee had not announced the end of the match!
The surrounding audience also looked up at the sky above the arena in disbelief!
"Could it be…"
An ominous premonition arose in Mu Mu's heart.
She suddenly turned around, and the scene before her made her pupils shrink to pinpricks!
In the sky, facing the soul-hooking skill, Eggy squinted its hundred eyes, revealing an expression of enjoynt!
It seed that at this mont, it wasn't being attacked, but rather soone was tickling it!
"If it were any other attribute, I would find it tricky, but it just had to be soul-type. Isn't this just serving yourself up to be beaten?"
Lu Yu smiled without a word.
The reason he chose Eggy was that its true form was a Living Weapon created by the Red Dragon Tribe.
It was a fusion of the Mother of Dusk, the Crimson Hundred-Eyed Dragon King, and…
The power of the Hidden Bones Emperor!
It possessed a trace of the lingering Rhythm of the Eternal Tomb World of Serene Undead Souls!
Moreover, Eggy had not been worn down during its thousand years of suppression.
In addition, the courage buff provided by the Corpse Mountain Mask also worked on a spiritual level, indirectly raising its soul resistance to be almost equivalent to the Moonlight Rank!
Thus, to defeat Eggy, one either had to stall for ti until its Spirit Corrosion Form ended, or defeat it head-on!
But…
"I won't give you the chance!"
Lu Yu chuckled softly, looking at Eggy in the sky, which had reached its limit of patience, and said calmly:
"Eat!"
Roar!
With a Dragon Roar, the permitted Eggy beca completely excited, activating its Super-tier Skill 【Undying Hunger】!
It was as if it had beco a black hole at its center, devouring the Soul Curtain with a single breath.
Although it wasn't as delicious as the Power of a Thousand Faces transford by the Thousand-Faced Soul Tree, it could barely serve as a snack to sate its hunger!
"How is this possible!?"
Seeing this, Mu Mu's brows furrowed tightly.
She felt that things were getting a little out of control!
"Death Nether Dragon Centipede, use…"
She was about to continue her command when she suddenly found that Eggy had disappeared. She subconsciously looked beside her own pet beast and, sure enough, saw the Dragon Shadow surrounded by white bones.
Its brutal and greedy dragon pupils were staring at the soul body before it.
"Hundred Death Nether Scythes!" Mu Mu quickly issued the command.
When the enemy was close, the best defense was a good offense!
Hiss—
The Death Nether Dragon Centipede twisted its body, its hundred scythe-like legs swinging at high speed, shaking the void. Countless Soul Blades slashed out, attempting to force back the Brutal Dragon before it!
Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!
However, in the next mont, a giant White Bone Dragon Claw shot through, shattering all the Soul Blades with its Soul-soothing Power.
If the Death Nether Dragon Centipede hadn't used the montum to retreat, it would have been caught directly!
The outco would have been extrely dangerous!
Before it could even breathe a sigh of relief, Mu Mu's solemn voice sounded in the soul link:
"Use Multiple Nether Shields, defend the northwest, southwest, east, and south directions!"
The Death Nether Dragon Centipede and Mu Mu also shared a deep bond, so the mont it heard her voice, it directly condensed several shields made from the Power of the Nether River!
The next mont, its single eye was covered by four giant bone spears, which slamd into it from the directions Mu Mu had ntioned!
'Pseudo-Bone King Spear!'
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Shields of the River of the Netherworld shattered instantly, and spiritual energy particles exploded. Amidst the countless swirling dust motes, the Death Nether Dragon Centipede's figure soared into the air, unleashing an expanding ring of ghostly blue soul energy!
Skill—Soul-Shaking Ring!
Bang!
However, Eggy casually swatted with its dragon claw, directly crushing it.
It flapped its White Bone Dragon Wings, stirring up a storm, and charged directly in front of the Death Nether Dragon Centipede, its dragon claw striking down!
Boom!
Although the Death Nether Dragon Centipede managed to condense a Netherworld Shield in ti to defend, it was instantly shattered. Its carapace was torn, and the scattered soul fragnts were devoured by Eggy.
Its body was sent flying by the imnse force, smashing toward the arena like a cannonball.
Sizzle! Sizzle!
But the expected great tremor didn't happen.
Instead, the mont it touched the ground, it turned into countless wisps of ghostly blue mist!
High-tier Skill—Soul Mist Transformation!
It could condense and atomize a soul body. From its reaction speed, it was clear that its skill proficiency was definitely at Perfect-level or higher!
Swish, swish, swish!
The blue mist surged and spread, instantly covering the entire arena.
From behind Eggy, countless small Mist Dragon Centipedes rushed out, charging directly at its body, quickly climbing and coiling around it!
The mist churned, forming an execution platform composed of two giant scythes, their cold light glinting!
"Secret Art—Netherworld Dragon-Slaying Platform!" Mu Mu made a grasping motion in the air and calmly commanded!
As a Beast Tar who primarily used Dragon-type and Undead-type beasts, the first thing she researched was a Secret Art specifically targeting Dragon-types!
After all, Dragon Beasts have always stood at the top of the pyramid. As long as she could slay Dragon Beasts, dealing with other pet beasts would naturally be a piece of cake!
Boom!
A mysterious Soul Suppression spread out, beginning to suppress the Dragon Qi within Eggy's body.
The Super-Giant Death Nether Scythe swung, slaying everything!
Hum!
Faced with this fatal blow, white bones began to spread across the Mist Dragon Centipedes wrapped around Eggy's body, breaking them from the inside, shattering their Spiritual Energy Structure, and causing them to instantly explode into a sky full of dust!
Roar!
The White Bone Dragon Wings on its back resonated, and vast Corpse Spiritual Energy spread out. Countless white bones trembled and converged, and the edges of its dragon wings fused, becoming even sharper, reflecting the world!
Pseudo-Bone King Slash!
The dragon wings slashed out violently, directly colliding with the Secret Art—Netherworld Dragon-Slaying Platform.
The imnse spiritual energies collided and instantly exploded!
Eggy also took the opportunity to flap its wings, its figure streaking across the sky, getting in close and giving the Death Nether Dragon Centipede a thrashing!
It beat its opponent into a steady retreat!
Tearing off large amounts of soul fragnts!
The brutal scene made countless people's scalps tingle!
Rumble!
As the battle raged, terrifying battle shockwaves spread out, directly shattering the Defensive Ritual surrounding the arena!
Vast spiritual energy surged, threatening to spread to the other arenas at any mont!
"Damn it!"
The referee was also a bit dumbfounded seeing this. Although he knew the arena had its limits, a normal examinee couldn't possibly have the combat power of a Peak Morning Star Rank!
And what should he do if he encountered a prodigy?
The Referee's Handbook didn't ntion it!
"To hell with it!"
Just as the referee was about to use his own pet beast to block the battle shockwaves, a steady voice sounded from behind him:
"Stand down.
I'll take it from here!"
The referee turned around and saw Li Shu in his green robes, with a Holy Light Elf with three pairs of wings following behind him.
This was a special life form born in a Holy Light Ecosystem, most nurous in the 【Pure White Heaven】.
Its appearance was very similar to an angel, but it was petite, loved to devour all kinds of radiance, and wielded the Power of Holy Light.
Although the Holy Light Elf didn't have the ability to suppress all evil spirits as in the legends, it had a strong countering effect against the Undead Attribute!
Or rather… they countered each other!
Hum!
The Holy Light Elf waved its hand, and a huge, golden, bowl-shaped Holy Light Barrier appeared, directly covering the arena and blocking the shockwaves from their clash!
It also wouldn't obstruct the audience's view of the scene inside!
Thud! Thud! Thud!
But even so, Li Shu could feel the constant vibrations coming from his barrier, and the frequency was getting higher and higher.
The vibrations made him feel faintly numb!
If he were still at the Peak Morning Star Rank, he probably wouldn't have been able to last five minutes!
"Do these two monsters really need to go to school? Are they going to beat up the teachers when they get in?" Li Shu couldn't help but snark.
The crowd had similar thoughts.
Watching Eggy violently ravage its opponent, they felt a little sorry for this Death Nether Dragon Centipede.
Because many people could see that Eggy's soul was extrely tough, with extrely high soul resistance.
In a sense, it countered the Death Nether Dragon Centipede in its Spirit Corrosion Form.
But it was still outrageous to the extre!
After all, Mu Mu was a Magnate Seed with the hope of becoming an Eternal Sun Rank.
She had now stepped into the Morning Star Rank. With a rank advantage, she was still being beaten up violently by Lu Yu!
If this continued… could she lose?
"As expected, only by venturing out can one see a wider world and challenge more powerful enemies!" Mu Mu's cold and aloof expression didn't change, but her blue eyes grew more and more excited.
The Spiritual Puzzle in her mind shone with brilliance.
Boom!
A vast aura of the Nether River gathered, forming a black-gold Holy Grail in the air, engraved with Equinox Flowers and surrounded by countless ghosts.
The mont it appeared, the world grew dim!
The aura of the Nether River spread!
It quietly floated in the air, tilted, as a phantom of the Nether River rushed out. It didn't flow mightily like an ordinary river, but silently.
No one knew where it ca from or where it was going!
But under the scouring of the Nether River, all things would wither into silence!
However, this phantom of the Nether River's water did not rush towards Eggy. Instead, it flowed into the Holy Grail of the River of the Netherworld.
After Mu Mu injected a vast amount of spiritual energy to assist in the transformation, it turned into a drop of dark red liquid!
It exuded a vast and chaotic soul aura!
"The Holy Grail of the River of the Netherworld, this skill is indeed cheating!" Luo Zisong's expression was nostalgic as he couldn't help but think of the Mu Family genius he had defeated in his youth.
He also liked to stack all sorts of buffs with the Nether River's Fine Wine, making the battle exceptionally difficult.
He had almost failed his attempt to challenge soone of a higher rank!
The audience from the Pluto Domain also cheered when they saw this scene. They were no strangers to this ability and began to shout their support excitedly!
"Swallow the Soul-Boiling Brew!" Mu Mu calmly commanded!
Although the output of the Holy Grail had fixed recipes, there was a chance it would produce other fine wines, or even brews with side effects.
The forr had been tested and could be eaten at will; the latter needed to be consud selectively!
And the 【Soul-Boiling Brew】 was one of the fixed recipes!
After swallowing it, one's spiritual energy would enter a boiling state for ten minutes, increasing overall combat power by twenty percent.
The price was just entering the 【Nether Drunk】 state, where the soul would be weak for a long ti.
For the Mu family, this was a considerable price.
But Mu Mu was different.
She had the 【Soul-Devouring Nest】 talent. As long as she fed it enough souls, she could easily repair the defect.
Don't think the increase was too small. In a battle between high-level Beast Tars, the slightest difference could determine victory or defeat!
Hiss—
The Death Nether Dragon Centipede in its Spirit Corrosion state used Blink to dodge Eggy's violent claw strike.
It had also gotten smarter. Since soul power was ineffective, it directly condensed a vast amount of Nether Qi, turning it into countless black arrows.
It shot them towards Eggy, blanketing the sky and covering the earth!
Clang, clang, clang!
The Corpse Mountain Masks around Eggy spun, continuously resisting the Nether Qi Arrows with their corpses, but it was also held back for a mont.
Boom!
Hiss!
The Death Nether Dragon Centipede took the opportunity to swallow the dark red liquid, and its soul aura surged, becoming even more berserk!
At this mont, rank suppression Spirit Corrosion Form Nether River's Fine Wine!
A triple buff, a Joker Bomb!
How could she possibly lose!?
Thinking this, Mu Mu said in a deep voice, "Use Fallen Nether Beam, give it the final…"
Before she could finish, Eggy suddenly stopped.
The hundred Pale Dragon Eyes on its body opened, and a pale barrier spread out, enveloping the entire arena!
Legendary Skill—【Crimson Barrier】!
However, under the influence of the Imagination Object, it should now be called…
Bone World!
The cost of activating a Domain-type Skill was not small. Even for Eggy, a Legendary Dragon, the spiritual energy in its body began to drain rapidly.
If this continued, it could be depleted in a minute.
So, it stretched out its sharp dragon claw, and then…
Swiped!
Crack! Crack! Crack!
Endless bones converged.
Bone spurs grew on the arena, corpses gathered in the sky, and white bones covered the world!
Hiss—
The Death Nether Dragon Centipede wanted to retreat, but it was horrified to find that a large number of white bones were also growing on its body, rapidly growing and piling up!
Bang!
The arena crumbled, turning into a Bone Mountain that rose up, connecting with the Death Nether Dragon Centipede and the bones in the sky, forming a Pale Coffin that sealed it tightly inside, forcibly exiting its Spirit Corrosion Form.
The World Becos Bone, All Living Beings Enter the Coffin!
"He won just like that?"
Li Shu was also shocked.
Looking at the Death Nether Dragon Centipede, which had lost its ability to fight, and the dumbfounded referee, he said with a complicated expression:
"The victor is… Lu Yu!"
As his voice fell, the scene remained deathly silent!
After a while,
Gulp!
Only then did the sound of many people swallowing their saliva rise and fall, unable to believe that what they saw was real!
"The enhanced Death Nether Dragon Centipede was instant-killed?"
"What kind of monster is this Lu Yu guy?"
"This seems to be… a Domain Skill? If this isn't a pure-blood dragon, I'll eat this stainless steel chair on the spot!"
"The Red Dragon Tribe actually left behind a pure-blood dragon? Could it be a direct descendant of the Crimson Hundred-Eyed Dragon King? But logically speaking… shouldn't it be a life attribute? Why would it be compatible with a corpse-type Imagination Object? Could it also have an Undead Attribute?"
"Over a thousand years, it's normal for any mutation to occur. Ti is enough to bury everything.
It's reasonable for life to beco an Undead Attribute, right?"
"Speaking of which, Lu Yu's Little Spider is a legacy of the Dream-Eating Cult, and this dragon is a legacy of the Red Dragon Tribe. The origin of the Imperial Black Crimson Dragon Ant is unknown, but my gut tells it might be a similar origin.
Could Lu Yu's talent be 【Legacy Recipient】?"
"I think it's more like the 'Yellow Hair' wife-poacher who says, 【I Shall Raise Your Wife and Daughter, and Seize Your Family Property】!"
"…"
Amidst the noisy discussions, Mu Mu finally ca to her senses, a trace of clarity returning to her blue eyes.
She finally understood… how this Evil Dragon had suddenly beco so much stronger!
Because her opponent clearly had a Domain Skill, but had been conserving its strength from the beginning, continuously shattering and devouring the fragnts of the Death Nether Dragon Centipede's carapace to strengthen itself!
In other words, not only did she get wrecked, she also got fleeced!
A 6,200-word large chapter, asking for a Monthly Ticket.
A new story arc will begin tomorrow.
