Chapter 466 A New Mythical Skill! The Supreme Divinity of the Primordial Creator!
Lu Yu is a very pragmatic person. He temporarily put aside the grazing quota on the ranch, and planned to find an evil god cult to set up an operation and kill one of the evil god's followers to replenish his supply when he returned to the main world.
There's no need to waste this precious authority that aligns with the Egg's path.
Especially during this process, the Chaos Egg might also be extracted...
Although you will ultimately benefit from the incubation process, it doesn't meet your immediate needs.
Lu Yu focuses more on improving his pets.
Because the City of Reincarnation had evolved several times before, this time the evolution was very rapid and many changes occurred.
First of all, the city has expanded to three times its previous size, and the architecture has become more mysterious and profound, shrouded in a thick underworld mist and hidden in the void.
On the outskirts of the city, a dark and ethereal river called the River of Reincarnation has appeared, flowing slowly, with numerous bone tablets and tombs floating within it.
The soul food previously devoured by Egg has transformed into various kinds of souls, which are drawn into the River Styx for cleansing, struggling inside like drowning people.
The numb expression became more meaningful, but the gaze was pure. All memories were washed away, and then it entered different tombstones and cemeteries to undergo transformation.
They then became skeletal or undead life forms, bearing varying degrees of dragon-like characteristics.
Specifically, the classification is based on the number of souls consumed; the more souls consumed, the stronger the individual and the more distinct its characteristics.
For example, it grows dragon scales, dragon horns, or a dragon's head, or a dragon head with only a big mouth, which devours all visible matter.
It only took a few bites before Egg threw it into the River of Reincarnation to continue swimming.
Just kidding, in this world, it's the only one that gets to eat other people's food.
In addition, there appeared a bone dragon and a Styx dragon that looked three-tenths like Egg, with seven eyes on their foreheads that kept writhing and had a ferocious look in their eyes.
Their birth brought a touch of order and liveliness to this world that had always been shrouded in mist, and from this, world barriers and stable laws were derived.
Life is the foundation of the ecological world!
The skill bar for [City of Reincarnation] also changed accordingly, becoming...
【Reincarnation Realm (Prototype): A mythical skill. The pet beast of the Gate Master devoured the power of the Underworld God, successfully transforming the laws of death and allowing the City of Reincarnation to develop its own ecosystem of the dead—the River of Reincarnation.
The cycle of all things is the fundamental order, but reincarnation carrying memories only brings a disguised form of immortality and eternal life. The continuous accumulation of long memories can also distort one's own spirituality, turning one into a special monster. Therefore, it is necessary to cleanse the soul to keep it pure and flawless, so as to be reborn into a new life.
This is the duty of reincarnation, a necessary condition for maintaining balance. Souls cleansed by the River of Reincarnation can transform into different creatures of the underworld, bearing the mark of the Dragon of Reincarnation, and becoming its followers.
It can also be used to wash away opponents through the River of Reincarnation, erasing all memories, understanding of laws, world imprints, etc., forcibly weakening their strength and knocking them down in rank. The stronger the opponent, the less effective it is.
The more souls that are cleansed, the more complete the duties of reincarnation become. Furthermore, the City of Reincarnation, with its core authority over the underworld, can radiate outwards a rudimentary ecological world.
Then, by searching for the corresponding life authority, a true cycle of reincarnation can be derived, giving rise to the six realms of reincarnation, forcibly intervening in the cycle of life and death, anchoring the concept of reincarnation in all realms, guiding souls from all realms to be reborn, and completing the cycle of reincarnation at all times.
With sufficient accumulation, the River of Reincarnation becomes stronger, allowing one to condense the authority of reincarnation and ascend to a divine position. Currently, this can be achieved by assisting in the purification of souls and condensing the energy of reincarnation. Ten thousand units of souls can condense into a single wisp, and this can be stacked infinitely.
"The City of Reincarnation is beginning to transform into the Realm of Reincarnation." Lu Yu was pleasantly surprised; the second mythical skill was indeed a bug.
This directly made Egg the second pet in the team with the potential to become a true king.
Mythical skills come from the authority of the gods. The reason why one cannot become a god is simply that one needs to occupy a path and radiate influence across all realms.
However, the River of Reincarnation's secondary ability is extremely powerful. While cleansing memories, it can also knock down one's rank, reminding him of the Three Immortal Maidens of the Nine Turns Yellow River Formation, who cut off the three flowers on the top of a Great Luo Golden Immortal and almost stopped the Shang Dynasty from its demise.
In the end, it was only through the intervention of a sage, who used the power of the strong to bully the weak, that they were finally eliminated.
If they have prototypes in the realm of disease, they are at least powerful beings at the level of great beings.
Saints should be considered half-forbidden, since they still adhere to logic. Of course, it's hard to estimate if they are omniscient and omnipotent mythological saints.
However, with this ability, Lu Yu's myth of being invincible among his peers can continue, allowing him to knock his opponents down a rank from the start and crush them directly.
If I can't beat you, I'll bring you down to the same level and suppress you.
The restrictions on the energy of reincarnation have also been lifted, and it can be continuously accumulated as long as the soul reincarnates.
The last time Lu Yu entered the Reincarnation Dragon form, he overwhelmed the Ecological Lord head-on. Although the opponent was suppressed by half of its strength, it still proved its powerful might.
The only drawback is...
It costs money.
However, that's his own problem.
Lu Yu mentally complained, but then kept his promise and handed over the remaining half of the power to the Phoenix Lord's daughter.
It wasn't that he had a change of heart, but rather that the threat of Hades still existed, and the idea of fighting amongst himself was too foolish.
The Phoenix Lord's daughter relinquished this portion of her authority and asked, "Didn't we agree to collide with the Underworld to seek help from the other Underworld Gods? Why did you choose to collide with the Pure White Heaven?"
The question, "Aren't you really afraid of dying?" was posed because the Phoenix Lord's daughter knew about the plan, but was also stunned by Lu Yu's crazy actions.
The reason for crashing into the underworld is that there are other underworld gods there, and entering them allows one to take advantage of the chaos and use one enemy against another.
However, if you go to the Pure White Realm, you will most likely be besieged and killed by the Archangels, or be slapped to death by the Pure White God.
The mortality rate has increased dramatically!
Fortunately, nothing bad happened in the end.
"Plans can't keep up with changes; who could have imagined that He would bring the underworld over here?"
Lu Yu's eyes flickered. He had initially planned to ask the Hidden Corpse Emperor for help, but after thinking about it, he decided against it and continued, "Moreover, if we want to force Him to cut off his flesh, we must find a strong enough threat, otherwise He won't give out so much authority."
The Phoenix Lord's daughter nodded. Although it was risky, the rewards were indeed very high.
This human brought her many surprises.
Lu Yu asked curiously, "But next, this god of the underworld will not give up easily. In our previous plan, after you obtained this part of the authority, you would transform your soul, and then control the remains of the Undying Heavenly Phoenix through bloodline connection, and then ascend to godhood."
"Once you become a god and establish your own ecological divine kingdom, you can withstand their pursuit, but now..."
The Phoenix Lord's daughter made a vow to the Mother River, agreeing to become its subordinate deity.
If one were to ascend to godhood now, one would inevitably fall under its control, which would be tantamount to courting death.
Lu Yu didn't care whether the other party lived or died; the main thing was...
He signed an agreement with the daughter of the Phoenix Lord: if this plan to defraud the great being succeeded, the other party would have to give him a drop of Heavenly Phoenix essence blood to help Crimson Moon Lotus's pet beast evolve.
And they were safely returned to the main world!
Now... it seems a bit difficult to fulfill the agreement.
This mysterious god of the underworld was merely concealing his identity and hadn't made a real move. After all, Lu Yu and his group were approaching the underworld, and the only one capable of ascending to godhood, the daughter of the Phoenix Lord, was also bound by an oath, which was why they hadn't broken off all ties.
Because we can get all of this back!
Otherwise, if He were to truly descend, the remains of the Undying Heavenly Phoenix would be instantly crushed.
"What a terrible teammate," Lu Yu thought to himself. If this continued, he would have to go to his old friend, the Hidden Corpse Emperor's, divine kingdom to avoid trouble.
But he recently usurped the power of the night from the Mother of Twilight.
Like a middle-aged man having an affair, too ashamed to go home and see his wife...
"Wait, what kind of analogy is this?"
Just as Lu Yu was considering his options,
"So that's how it is..." The Ancient Phoenix Clan Chief and the others had just figured out this complicated relationship, and their gazes toward the Phoenix Lord's daughter were a mixture of complex emotions and relief.
Good news: The Phoenix Queen has not shed her magnificent wings and become a coward.
Bad news: It was Qian, the Phoenix Lord's only child.
The Phoenix Lord has departed completely!
Crimson Lotus raised its head and looked at the vast purple Netherworld so close to it. The Undying Heavenly Phoenix, comparable to a great domain, was like a grain of rice compared to an elephant in front of it.
The underworld was born extremely anciently, even earlier than the pure white world. Over countless years, it has accumulated countless dead substances and continues to expand.
Now, it is the largest top-tier world besides the three main worlds, the Abyss, and the Astral Plane; otherwise, it would not be able to accommodate ten Underworld Gods at the same time.
"Screech!" The corpse of the Undying Phoenix had already approached the Underworld, rolling in with immense force, enough to smash a large hole through the surface.
However, at this time
Above the Mother River, a magnificent figure, more vast than the Milky Way, appeared. Mortals could not bear to look directly at its true form; the moment it appeared, even the invisible space began to die.
He did not directly intervene, but the radiating ecosystem alone caused changes on the surface of the underworld.
"Hiss hiss hiss!"
From it grew countless death serpents, each comparable to a pillar of heaven, roaring to the sky and opening their blood-red maws to tear at the corpse of the Undying Heavenly Phoenix.
Even the inextinguishable flames could not burn these immortal creatures. Instead, their wings were bitten by sharp fangs, leaving bloody holes, and they were dragged toward the underworld.
Rumble!
The entire Heavenly Phoenix Nest trembled violently, and the Heavenly Phoenix corpses also let out instinctive mournful cries.
"He wants to force the Phoenix Lord's daughter to ascend to godhood!" Crimson Lotus said solemnly, now understanding the situation through analysis.
Even if the Undying Phoenix were to crash into the Underworld and expose its attempt to seize power, even if it could defeat this mysterious Underworld God, it would still become prey for the other Underworld Gods.
She didn't know the relationship between the Hidden Corpse Emperor and Lu Yu, but a newly returned God of the Underworld couldn't possibly stop eight great beings; on the contrary, he would die an even more miserable death.
Either He will crush you and take everything away from you.
Either choose to ascend to godhood and be controlled by Him, rendering all previous efforts futile.
Even if it's about seizing power, the great being doesn't need to show themselves; they can simply crush it with overwhelming force.
"These local deities are really rude," Lu Yu complained.
"Aren't you afraid?" the Phoenix Lord's daughter asked abruptly, curious about how Lu Yu had managed to be so brave.
There was absolutely no sense of awe or reverence for something great.
"The stronger the opponent and the more desperate the situation, the more interesting this death adventure will be," Lu Yu said with a smile. "Since we've come this far, why not tell me who this god of the underworld really is?"
"I don't know either." The Phoenix Lord's daughter shook her head. To prevent Lu Yu from disbelieving her, she explained, "He has always contacted me through the Reincarnation Tree without leaving any trace. Logically speaking, the Reincarnation Royal Tree is the most suspicious, but we cannot rule out the possibility that the other Royal Trees are in disguise."
"I see..." Lu Yu nodded, without any doubt. After all, the other party could endure not taking action even after being stripped of his power, so naturally he wouldn't leave any trace.
Thinking of this, Lu Yu reminded him, "If you want to surrender, remember to put in a good word for me and ask Him not to bother with mortals. Help me get an angel position, preferably one that's handsome."
"The Celestial Phoenix may soar through the skies, but it will never become a slave, merely clinging to life!"
The Phoenix Lord's daughter spoke calmly, grasping the power and placing it into the Heavenly Phoenix Palace.
hum!
The authority burst forth with the radiance of rules, attempting to break free, but at this moment, countless fleshy tentacles spread out from within the Heavenly Phoenix Palace, tightly enveloping it.
Seeing this scene, Lu Yu also felt a chill run down his spine.
The next second, endless radiance erupted from the Heavenly Phoenix Palace, spreading out countless flame creations resembling nerve tendrils, piercing through the ground, connecting to the remains of the Undying Heavenly Phoenix, and completing it.
boom!
At this moment, the illusory image of the Mother River descended, carrying with it boundless power of rules, shaking all realms.
It caused countless creatures to instinctively raise their heads, as if they had sensed something.
In the main world, Wan Yinwu, Shi Weijun, and the others who were still playing chess also looked up.
Wan Yinwu put away his nonchalant smile and said softly, "There is a supreme expert... who is ascending to godhood."
At this moment, whether it was the human race, the kings of all races, or even the great goddess Heng'e on the moon, they all felt the tremor of the rules and were surprised.
However, they did not find the source and could only speculate that it was unrelated to the main world and should be from another world.
Even as the chaotic era began, ancient beings were already rushing to make their move.
Will it succeed?
At the same time, the flames of the Undying Phoenix ignited the entire Phoenix Nest, turning it into an endless sea of fire.
hum!
Endless life force began to emerge, transforming into a mysterious death aura.
The Phoenix Lord's daughter transformed back into human form, her magnificent feathered robes gradually crumbling away. Her smile was serene, and countless images flashed through her mind like a revolving lantern. She slowly said, "From the very beginning, I never intended to ascend to godhood; I only waited for my mother's return."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yu asked in surprise, "Tianhuang, isn't she already dead?"
So many times the Nirvana Dance failed to revive her, leaving only the Phoenix Lord's daughter behind.
He is not a great being who embodies authority, possesses immortality, and as long as the rules are immortal, they are immortal. He can be buried in the old days, waiting for the day when glory can be reclaimed.
The Phoenix Lord most likely doesn't even have a soul anymore.
Is this woman insane?
Or perhaps he's just fooling himself, secretly preparing to defect to the enemy.
"You're right, but the Mother River is full of miracles, isn't it?" The Phoenix Lord's daughter blinked, her eyes losing some of her divinity and gaining more of her humanity.
In her human form, she has long, red hair that falls to her waist, exquisite phoenix eyes, a long neck, fair skin, and even a wild, animalistic quality. She is a top-tier beauty, scoring 98 points.
Lu Yu paid no attention to these things, but turned to look at the Heavenly Phoenix Palace and suddenly realized something.
While top-tier demigods like the Undying Heavenly Phoenix may not have their entire bodies transformed into extraordinary organs, they still possess a considerable number of them.
Because its status was so high, it was always marked with a question mark. Lu Yu didn't think much of it, assuming it was a protective measure left by Tianhuang for her descendants.
But now it seems...
Why... why is it that the Heavenly Phoenix Palace, which represents reproduction, has broken free from the corpses and maintained unimaginable vitality!
But they could have chosen a superhuman organ that was better at attacking...
The Phoenix Lord's daughter saw Lu Yu's actions, her smile widening, and said:
"You are indeed very clever. Well then, let me reveal the answer."
"My mother perished so that she could give birth to me. She received something from the age of mythology, representing the origin of all things, the deity who gave birth to them..."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yu had a bad feeling.
"The blood of the Supreme Mother Goddess!"
The Phoenix Lord spoke slowly and deliberately, then sighed, "As the mother of a top-tier demigod, her spirituality is highly concentrated. Unless she tears apart her own origin, it is impossible for her to conceive offspring."
At that time, She received the blood of the Supreme Mother Goddess. She could have absorbed the life-originating power within it, which nurtures all things, and occupied more of the life paths, but instead chose to conceive me and gave me all her love, awaiting my birth.
"But this also led to my own weakness, and I was killed by the ancient being. My soul perished in the Mother River, but His love has always remained with me."
Fortunately, there's always a way out. The rules of rebirth are a miracle of creation. By borrowing the power of the Supreme Mother Goddess and using the remains of the Heavenly Phoenix as a guide, the [Supreme Mother Goddess Spirit Rebirth Ritual] can be performed to re-create the Mother's soul.
hum!
As soon as the words fell, the Heavenly Phoenix Palace was suddenly shrouded in deep darkness. By drawing power from the Heavenly Phoenix's corpse, it spread rapidly outward like pollution, transforming into a writhing dark cloud.
At first glance, it resembles a stunningly beautiful woman draped in a dark veil; at second glance, it resembles countless piled-up chunks of flesh; one can even see the myriad forms of humanity, constantly changing and merging.
No, it should be said that...
All the myriad aspects of human existence originate from Him!
His darkness continues to spread; this is not the rule of darkness, but the ultimate darkness before the birth of the world, the "nothingness" of everything.
But it is evolving towards "existence," which belongs to the authority of the Creator.
His appearance silenced the world.
Many of the gods of the underworld remained silent, for they remembered the owner of this power.
That… the supreme divinity that has long since died!
The Mother River remained silent, watching over this dark, cloud-filled palace that devoured its tributaries, the barriers of the underworld, and the remains of the Heavenly Phoenix...
Transformed into a forbidden ritual!
"Don't worry, when my mother is resurrected, she will keep her promise and will not break it." The Phoenix Lord's daughter looked at the silent Lu Yu and comforted him.
This human's origins are mysterious; he is suspected to be an agent of the Faceless God, and he has many methods at his disposal. He doesn't want to turn against us unless absolutely necessary.
Lu Yu remained silent, because his heart...
It has sunk to the bottom of the valley.
