Chapter 458 The Abyss of the Demon Eye in the Netherworld! The Phoenix Nest Opens! The Primal Radiant Heart
Luo Zisong rolled his eyes, knowing that this kid was unconventional.
Yuan Ji's expectant gaze instantly lost its luster. She lowered her head, looking dejected, like a puppy abandoned by its owner, its once wagging tail now drooping slowly.
She called softly, "Master..."
Receiving no response from Lu Yu, the little spider on his shoulder wore a helpless expression.
Although it is gentle, in this world, the owner comes first, and anything that violates this priority will be ignored.
Lu Yu, however, had more to consider. Former royalty were offering themselves up as lackeys, and even powerful beings at the level of an ecosystem master were submitting to him—it all sounded very tempting.
But you need to understand one thing...
During the Myriad Races Arena Tournament, the Abyss Eye Demon Clan was already completely surrounded by the army of the Sui'e Kingdom, and was being used as leverage to force Lu Yu to fight.
If they really do side with me, as the leader...
Should we go and rescue them?
Otherwise, if word gets out, it will become a laughing stock!
Lu Yu wasn't sure if this was just an empty promise made by the Abyss Eye Demon Clan when they were desperate.
Moreover, unless he uses the power of the alliance or some super trump card, it will be difficult for him to break through the blockade at this stage.
As for someone approaching the Kingdom of Year Calamity, it's truly believed...
Wouldn't the true king kill people?
After a quick calculation, Lu Yu realized that the price he needed to pay exceeded the total value of the entire Abyss Eye Demon Race.
He has always been suspicious by nature. Could it be that Yuan Ji's visit this time is also a trap set by the Sui'e Kingdom to lure him out and kill him?
Or they might send a group of spies to cause trouble; if they can't control them, they're all ticking time bombs.
There are few advantages, but a lot of disadvantages.
The effort and the return are not proportional.
Lu Dashanren has never liked doing business at a loss; at least, Yuanji has not yet given him the right to do so.
As for the claim that Yuan Ji is a great beauty and one could win her heart?
Hehe, with Lu Yu's current status, he only needs to say one word, and the powerful families who send him beauties will be knocking down his door.
Based on the beauties he had seen, Little Spider was in the perfect score category, while Crimson Moon Dream and Crimson Moon Red Lotus were in the 98 and 99 score categories, respectively. Jiang Ji, who became a saintess and received the blessing of thorns, was also in that category.
Including Yu Xiyan, they all possess a beauty that is difficult to replicate even with extraordinary power.
While top-tier beauties like Luo Qingyue and Yuan Ji, who score 95 points, are rare, there are still plenty to be found among billions of people if you're willing to spend the time searching. However, their temperament and strength are definitely not as good as the former.
Sometimes, a woman's appearance is one aspect, but her social status is also very important, especially for daughters of noble families, who have a unique charm.
If the requirements are lowered to around 90 points, then the number of women available will be enormous, with all sorts of women to be found. Noble families have no shortage of young and beautiful women.
With the added assistance of supernatural powers, there are practically no ugly women among them.
Even... there are quite a few people who offer their wives and daughters in exchange for personal gain.
If Lu Yu were to build a desolate palace and house thousands of beauties, the alliance would not only not say anything, but would even help with the selection process, allowing him to retain more of the Sun Bloodline and strengthen the human race.
But he hasn't let his small head control his big head yet, and his appetite has been spoiled by the saintess; he has no interest in beauties below 95 points.
Only the president and Jiang Ji could persuade him to make some concessions without violating his principles.
But... the former only likes to stick things on.
The latter never let Lu Yu worry about such things. On the contrary, she always used her gentleness to tightly embrace Lu Yu, allowing him to teach her everything he knew.
If Yuan Ji caused such a commotion just to cause him trouble, then there is indeed no need to keep her around.
As for sacrificing the elite of the human race to save the Abyss Eye Demon race and disrupting the overall battle situation...
This is impossible.
Considering that the other party had stayed for two months and paid him ten million in protection fees, Lu Yu decided to ask Luo Zisong how serious Yuan Ji's crime was.
If it's not a big problem, let her go back, but if we meet again on the battlefield, just kill her.
If the problem is serious, let the alliance's legal system handle it itself.
Luo Zisong received a signal from Lu Yu and shook his head, indicating that it wasn't a big problem. He thought to himself that this kid had really strong willpower; even the beauty he spent every day with couldn't sway him.
No wonder it was able to swim upstream in the Mother River!
Lu Yu looked at Yuan Ji on the ground and said calmly, "You should have other gifts, right?"
"As expected, nothing can be hidden from Master." Yuan Ji pursed her lips and smiled. "I understand... Master doesn't like troublesome things, so I have already condensed the secret treasure of the [Abyss of the Demon Eye] and a legendary item with dark attributes from the clansmen other than Father and Elders, and presented them to Master together."
As she spoke, Yuan Ji took out a black cloud entwined with dozens of dark star rings. At its center was a huge black-gold eye, surrounded by thousands of demonic eyes with patterns similar to Yuan Ji's own eyes.
Like a slowly rotating dark abyss, within which countless eyes writhe.
"This treasure was crafted based on the blood from the eyes of the ancient king of the Abyss Eye Demon before he became king. As long as spiritual energy is injected into it, the master can control the top-level dark eye technique, easily tear apart the Black Abyss, annihilate all things, and freely enter and exit the Eternal Dark Sea."
It contains the demonic eyes of more than 10,000 descendants. When fully unleashed, it can use the [Earthly Demonic Eye] skill and perform three high-level ecological master-level defenses.
The first time you overdraw their power, the second time you overdraw their life force; once it's all used up, they will be destroyed.
"???" Luo Zisong felt a chill run down his spine. Although he already knew that Yuan Ji had prepared a great gift, the price should be that he save his race.
totally unexpected……
This woman actually killed her entire clan to please Lu Yu.
Are you crazy?
Lu Yu glanced at it a few times and chuckled, "Your father is indeed a remarkable person, actually regarding me as his last hope. Aren't you afraid of entrusting yourself to the wrong person?"
Others may not know, but with his eye of truth, all knowledge in the world that has been born, exists now, and has not yet been created is within the scope of truth.
The power of omniscience has always been in his hands; the only thing that limits Lu Yu is his strength.
This forbidden bloodline spell, called the "Abyss of the Demonic Eyes of the Netherworld," was created by the True King of the Abyss-Eye Demons. It can extract the life essence of the Abyss-Eye Demons, turning it into individual eyeballs, and it generates a special suction force that draws them together.
It looks no different from a secret treasure, and it can even automatically recover its spiritual energy and be used normally. However, it can only return to its original form after a period of time, or after being unsealed through some secret technique.
These are secret spells used to perpetuate the race, usually known only to the clan leader, and used to avoid major crises.
The chieftain of the Abyss Eye Demon Clan probably knew that the Sui'e Kingdom was unreliable from the moment he sent Yuan Ji away, and began to prepare a plan. However, at that time, Lu Yu was only one of the few candidates.
However, after the Eagle People destroyed their kingdom, he became a rising star in the entire main world.
To Lu Yu's surprise, Yuan Ji even revealed the method of overdrafting it, as if she were a rich young lady who had been tricked into getting pregnant by Huang Mao and was willing to eat cornbread.
The elite Abyss Eye Demons, at their strongest, were no stronger than the Radiant Moon, which was far inferior to the three ecological master-level defensive measures obtained by sacrificing them.
If the clan chief knew this, he'd probably be furious.
When a woman sets her mind to something, she can indeed be ruthless.
Feeling Lu Yu's meaningful gaze, Yuan Ji understood that the other party had seen through their plan.
Although she didn't know how her master knew, her gaze was persistent and obsessive as she said devoutly, "Because you are the sun that shines on the world, only if you live can the Abyss-Eyed Demon race have hope."
When she was born, the Abyss Eye Demon Clan had already lost its true king and needed to rely on the royal family, humbling themselves in order to survive. Even she, the daughter of the clan leader, understood that she was just a toy given to the Calamity-Crossing Tai Sui.
Toys, once you get tired of them or they're no longer useful, will be discarded. So, she always lived in fear, trying her best to increase her value, but she was still treated as a discarded pawn by the Tai Sui of the Calamity.
Until... she met Lu Yu.
This rising star among humanity shattered their plans, forcefully trampled on the geniuses of all races, devoured the Calamity-Crossing Tai Sui, tore apart the Huiyuan Royal Family, and now crushes seven high-level giants and confronts the Ecological Lord head-on.
In just two years, he went from an unknown nobody to a powerful figure who could destroy a country with a single word and wield immense power.
Faced with the threats and deals of the Tai Sui, he did not treat himself as an object, but as a living "person".
If you've never seen the sun, you won't fear the cold; once you've seen it, you can never let go of it, even if it means abandoning everything.
From that moment on, she vowed to pursue this man!
She had heard from the Paper Knight and other pets that their master's birthday was approaching, so she risked being captured and returned to the Abyss Demon Clan, not for the continuation of her race, but simply to present a gift to her master.
To this end, she deceived her father, asking him to do everything in his power to send her out. Unfortunately, she was still discovered by the unlucky Tai Sui and secretly followed. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been regarded as a traitor by the human race.
However, as long as she is alive, the Abyss Eye Demon Clan will not be wiped out for the time being.
Even if her race perishes, she can give birth to a new Abyss Eye Demon race.
"And... Master!" Yuan Ji secretly glanced at her master and found that in just half a month, her master had become more and more handsome.
It's not just about appearance; it also possesses a unique charm that stimulates the desire for reproduction even more than a succubus.
I wonder if it's just her imagination? "This woman isn't lying, she's practically become your fanatic. I haven't sensed any conspiracy either, but she's got too many ulterior motives, and they're still growing!" A slightly disgruntled voice echoed in Lu Yu's mind.
After the demon seed infiltrated, no one could lie to the rat.
However, these foolish human females only know how to lust after cultivators all day long; their lewd thoughts are simply disgusting...
After reading it all, the mouse expressed serious criticism.
It's too astringent, have more!
As for the alliance's intention, it should be to get him to accept the Abyss Eye Demon Clan, setting an example for subsequent surrenders.
Since he didn't need to work hard and there were no extra troubles, Lu Yu didn't hesitate. He stretched out his hand, the Eye of Heaven appeared, and swallowed the [Abyss of Demonic Eye] in one gulp, bringing it under his control.
As for the legendary dark attribute she brought, it is called "Dark Blood," which can replace the blood in the whole body and transform into an invisible flow of dark rules.
A single drop of blood can pollute a large lake, forcibly twisting all life that drinks the water into dark life forms, greatly enhancing their corrosive abilities.
It is very suitable for paper knights who do not have a physical form and belong to fantasy creatures.
Thinking of this, Lu Yu looked at the somewhat tired Yuan Ji. A gust of wind swept by, blowing away her fatigue.
The employees who were paid to work have returned to their posts!
"Speaking of which, Elder Luo, Principal Shi said I could come to the Alliance and find a rich but foolish guy to get the materials I want. Do you know who to ask?" Lu Yu had almost forgotten about this.
Since we're already here, let's just do it all at once.
"Foolish and rich..." Luo Zisong suppressed a laugh and reminded him, "I know about this. He has already handed it over to me. Just tell me the attributes you need."
"You'll take responsibility?" Lu Yu was taken aback, then suddenly realized.
No wonder they said they could just pick any legendary attribute; it turns out it's all from the treasure trove of Grand Master Wan Yinwu.
Without hesitation, he directly reported the legendary traits of the Light element. Luo Zisong took out his internal equipment to check the list and found that there were exactly two items: the [Northern Lights Tendon] and the [Primal Radiance Heart].
The former can replace all the body's meridians, transforming into aurora, increasing speed, and penetrating all things.
The latter can replace the heart, transforming into a ray of primordial radiance that has a suppressive effect on ordinary light.
Luo Zisong suggested the latter.
No reason why, it's just that it's very rare and must be very valuable.
As for the relevant procedures, Lu Yu doesn't need to handle them; he will take full responsibility, and the documents will be delivered to him in the next couple of days!
"Having connections in high places makes things much easier!"
Lu Yu sighed inwardly, deciding to take full advantage of the situation and ask Luo Zisong to help him find a mission to the vicinity of the Sky Dome Tree Kingdom.
Otherwise, given his current fame, he would have gone there directly...
This could easily trigger a diplomatic incident!
"I understand, I understand!"
After listening, the old man gave him a knowing look, indicating that he would take note of it.
"However, don't have too high expectations. After all, the Sky Tree Kingdom is an ally. With a True King present, the human race must show respect. It's impossible for them to send a large army to defend the border. We'll have to wait for an opportunity."
"You may be physically strong, but you need to be careful. And don't lay a hand on pure-blooded elves. Just do whatever you want in ordinary tribes. Besides, with your status, as long as you spread the word, there will be plenty of slave-catching teams rushing to curry favor with you..."
Lu Yu rolled his eyes. Did he really look like one of those tall, dark-skinned orcs?
With my face like this, who knows who will come out on the losing end?
Since Lao Luo was there, it saved him the trouble of making the trip himself, so he handed over the history handbook.
"What is this?"
"An encyclopedia of ancient creatures and some hidden histories can enhance the ability to project history," Lu Yu explained simply.
"You said you weren't interested in her, but once you bring this out, knowing her personality, she'd be willing to give herself to you." Luo Zisong glared at the kid and muttered, "When you have time, spend more time with my silly granddaughter and give her some positive energy."
Ordinary people don't have the means, but ancient giants can live for tens of thousands of years, and no one forces them to be with only one person for life.
Eugenics and having more children are the alliance's guiding principles.
Lu Yu ignored the old man's frivolous behavior and walked outside with Yuan Ji. When they left, they saw the Heavenly Ghost Tree and felt a little reluctant to part with it.
I asked and found out that it was because the little spider was so cute and polite that it gave me a small gift (Void-type snacks) as a token of appreciation. In addition, the affinity brought by the Void Seal made the lonely old man, Tian Guishu, very happy.
Originally, he wanted to send some of the fragmented small worlds, but Luo Zisong quickly stopped him. These were the Alliance's assets. If anything was missing, Lu Yu would be fine, but he would definitely be heavily in debt.
Finally, after failing with both approaches, the Heavenly Ghost Tree snorted coldly and simply gifted all its insights into the rules of the void.
As it turns out, the little angel can get along anywhere!
Afterwards, amidst the awe-inspiring gazes of the crowd, Lu Yu led Yuan Ji away from the Alliance Center.
"So bright..."
Feeling the blinding light from the sky, Yuan Ji squinted at the figure in front of her, a slight smile playing on her lips.
Compared to its owner, the sun isn't so dazzling!
In the following days, Lu Yu quickly received the [Legendary Trait - Primal Radiance Heart], handed it to the Paper Knight, and continued to inspect the Alliance Center to make his presence known.
As for treating the wounded, that's left to fate.
Never let others think that your efforts are a given, as this is not conducive to accumulating the Rose of Redemption!
If they weren't on the same side, Lu Yu would have liked to pretend to be a villain, beat them up, then heal them, and repeatedly exploit them.
Unfortunately... no, it would easily attract the attention of several false kings.
Therefore, Lu Yu simply began to meet with many forces that wanted to pledge allegiance to him.
This includes, but is not limited to, classmates from Teito University, members of the Obuchi City Alliance, and former superiors of their parents.
Overall, the quality varied greatly, and because there were too many of them, which disturbed his rest time, Lu Yu simply refused to see any of them.
Instead of wasting energy on infighting, it's better to improve your own abilities.
True power lies within oneself!
Although the ecosystem of the disease realm was complete, others didn't know, so Lu Yu had to pretend to be one, and maybe he could even fish for them. So he asked the Dark Moon Merchant Guild, where Huang Tiantian worked, to make the arrangements.
The little spiders only need to go there periodically to spread their ecological influence.
Because he was too relaxed, Lu Yu felt that he was too idle. He originally wanted to find the Holy Maiden to have a heart-to-heart talk, but she went to the Thorn Kingdom.
The president has also gone back to his hometown!
He could only cultivate, eat, and sleep, living a monotonous life, before starting his job.
ransacking homes... oh no, fighting!
They went directly to the military control tower on the border to remotely command the army's attack. Using the Eye of Truth and the top-notch scout abilities of their rat clones, they gathered firsthand information and launched several annihilation battles that were comparable to being seen from God's perspective.
Despite their own military being weaker than the enemy's, they managed to outmaneuver them, catching the enemy off guard and leaving them exhausted.
Whether it's the terrain, the psychology, or the fighting style, it's all textbook-worthy.
The final casualty rate was also miraculous; one human beastmaster could take down eighty-nine alien warriors.
1: 89!
Such a record caused a sensation in a small area, and many commanders came specifically to learn the tactics of bullying the weak.
Lu Yu didn't keep anything to himself; he opened a training course and shared his knowledge.
The first thing he said was... "A skilled warrior achieves no great feats."
He knew his own limitations, so he used his Eye of Truth to examine many of the military treatises he would create in the future, combined them with his own experience, and explained them, focusing on professional expertise.
The effect was also obvious. Although these commanders could not be as omniscient as Lu Yu, they made the tactical style on the front line more stable and... sneaky.
While maintaining a steady and methodical approach, they also focused on surprise attacks, succeeding eight out of ten times, which disgusted the entire race!
Just as the battle was progressing smoothly, Lu Yu finally received some news.
It wasn't a mission order near the Sky Tree Kingdom, but rather...
The Heavenly Phoenix Nest is now open!
