Chapter 113 Crimson Descends, the Hundred-Eyed Dragon King (Seeking Subscriptions and Monthly Tickets)
The same words could easily be misunderstood, but this time no one mocked or despised him, or even considered looking at him.
Because their attention was drawn to the figure in the sky.
The sky above the secret realm was originally a clear blue, but now it had turned blood red, or rather... it was covered by a pair of enormous wings.
It was covered with dense, blood-red dragon scales, radiating blood-red spiritual energy that stained the sky of the second layer of the secret realm.
The owner of the wings was lying on the second-level barrier, his head slowly approaching. His enormous size brought a terrifying sense of oppression. What was most shocking was that after the head appeared, it looked exactly like the Guide Bird.
No, it's not exactly the same. Its gaze is more majestic and fierce. Combined with its size, it's more like... than a guide bird.
Dragon Eagle!
Legend has it that this terrifying creature, with its outstretched wings, can blot out the sky and the sun. Even the most powerful monsters on earth are nothing more than food to it!
"Could this be Lu Yu's guide bird!?"
The twenty-one people, including Qi Yun, were all dumbfounded and had finally understood what was happening.
This wasn't a bug in the Relics Card that caused Lu Yu's guide bird to disappear; it was clearly because there was just too much red mist, which directly condensed into a giant dragon eagle.
The second layer of the secret realm couldn't contain it, so it had to be expelled from the secret realm.
But now, it's back!
"Hey!"
Upon seeing Lu Yu, the dragon eagle revealed a hint of human-like surprise. Its massive dragon claws gripped the second layer of the secret realm's barrier, and with a little force, countless cracks appeared.
Click click click!
At this moment, the entire secret realm space emitted a sound of being overwhelmed, causing everyone's faces to show fear.
"Could it be...?"
boom!
The barrier of the second level of the secret realm shattered with a deafening roar, and a gigantic dragon claw descended, like a pillar of heaven, stomping onto the earth.
boom!
The earth shattered, and terrifying aftershocks of psionic energy erupted, destroying most of the Bloodthirsty Dragon Tree Forest. The remaining Bloodthirsty Dragon Trees were so frightened that they hurriedly pulled their roots out of the ground and began to flee in all directions.
Some bloodthirsty dragon trees even have their roots tangled up, yet they still have to desperately hop and jump to escape, which looks quite comical.
The terrifying danger that Qi Yun and his companions had carefully avoided, spending twenty resurrection coins to do so, was nothing more than an ant that could be accidentally stepped on and killed in front of this giant dragon eagle.
Such a huge gap left everyone with an indescribable feeling.
We have a Guide Bird, why don't you just use a Bodyguard Eagle?
And what shocked them even more was...
The strength displayed by this dragon eagle seems to have surpassed the spiritual transformation and possesses strength comparable to that of a hegemon.
Moreover, since it is formed from the relics themselves, it does not constitute a violation of the rules.
Has Lu Yu hollowed out the entire operating core of the Dragon's Secret Realm?
"What a huge bird..."
Lu Yu narrowed his eyes, concealing his shock. He had initially thought it was the [Destiny's Protection] skill that made the guide bird unable to find its location, but upon closer inspection, that didn't seem right.
Because this guy kept calling out to me from beginning to end, which means he could see me, and I only realized it at the last minute...
It's not inside the secret realm at all, it's outside!
Looking up, he saw the enormous dragon eagle, which blotted out the sky and, upon its appearance, helped him pass the second round of trials in an extremely wild manner.
Fly over ×
Crush the second layer of the secret realm
So domineering, but I like it!
Before Lu Yu could react, he was suddenly swept up by a gust of wind and placed on the back of the dragon eagle, without giving him any chance to discuss it, and was forcibly loaded onto it.
Lu Yu couldn't help but ask, "Where are you taking me?"
The dragon eagle did not answer, its face aloof, looking exactly like a domineering CEO of the bird world!
"Hey!"
With a deafening cry, the dragon eagle took flight, stirring up a whirlwind that tore through the top of the second level of the secret realm, carrying Lu Yu with it, and quickly disappeared.
Click click click!
The instant it departed, spatial turbulence surged forth from the torn opening, beginning to destroy the second layer of the secret realm, annihilating all matter in its path.
"Run!"
Qi Yun, who had been in a daze, suddenly snapped out of it, shouted, and turned to run away.
The others also realized what was happening and fled in a panic, squeezing into the doorway.
What was supposed to be a fun puzzle game has turned into a battle royale. They're struggling to escape the poison gas, while Lu Yu...
He's playing Thunder Fighter (Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Invincible Edition)!
The group rushed through the secret gate beside them and arrived at the third level.
This layer is an ice field, and it also has challenging levels, some even more difficult, requiring battles to overcome.
Although Lu Yu did not appear here, he left behind his legend.
Because this layer was also violently damaged by the giant dragon eagle, a gap was punched through it, causing a huge earthquake and a large number of icebergs to collapse and break apart.
Although not as severe as the second level, void turbulence began to spread, frightening the original trial creatures into fleeing.
Everything is in complete chaos.
"This guy is such a troublemaker!"
Everyone was stunned, realizing that Lu Yu was about to skip two levels and go straight to the last level!
He's cheating!
However, they had no time to be envious, because the void turbulence was still spreading. If this continued, they would all be torn to shreds by the spatial storm before the secret realm could repair itself.
Fortunately, Qi Yun soon discovered that the third level of the secret realm had a way to allow everyone to leave, so most people began to consider retreating.
After all, the two layers of the secret realm had already been shattered by the dragon eagle summoned by Lu Yu, and the trials that followed were extremely chaotic and even life-threatening.
Reaching the third level was far beyond their expectations. After all, most of them barely passed the first round of trials. Getting this far was already an excellent adventure experience, and they learned a lot.
such as……
Don't team up with cheaters to conquer dungeons; it's a terrible gaming experience!
"That's it... How can that be!?"
Looking at the chaotic scene in the icy plains of the third level, Qi Yun's eyes flashed with fervor, and he made his choice through action.
Before the rest of the alliance could react, he drove the Iron House Snail straight inside, intending to enter the fourth level of the secret realm amidst the chaos.
This is the most important core area, which is generally used to raise pets.
Qi Yun is gambling.
The fourth level is not so easily torn apart, and there is an option to return inside. Once you enter, you can see a brand new ecosystem, a rare dragon breeding ecosystem, and a lot of ancient knowledge.
Especially the last one; nothing could be more appealing to a researcher!
To die on the path of pursuing knowledge is a kind of happiness!
Thinking of this, Qi Yun's smile grew even more maniacal.
"Is this guy out of his mind?"
A group of people stared in disbelief at the car's retreating figure, never expecting that besides Lu Yu, who was a cheat code, there was also a madman.
However, they couldn't care less about others. Even the members of the alliance, facing the threat of death, could only turn into white light and return to the main world one by one.
Meanwhile, the Morning Star Beastmasters outside were also waiting anxiously.
Ma Yan's mechanical eye was already at its limit in terms of being able to broadcast live from the first level; he couldn't even get into the second or third level, so he simply withdrew.
Because it's unknown, they're even more curious about how these people will perform. Will Lu Yu pull off some amazing feat?
Ding Ding Ding!
Suddenly, streaks of white light flashed, and a large number of trial participants appeared, their faces still showing lingering fear. Upon seeing the outside world, they couldn't help but collapse to the ground.
They made it out alive!
This performance, however, made the four Morning Star Beast Tamers' hearts clench.
The first level just ended, so how come so many people were teleported out at the same time?
Could it be that some unknown change has occurred on the second layer?
What about Lu Yu and Qi Yun?
People kept emerging from within the white light, but the two figures were nowhere to be seen until it completely ended. Luo Zisong grew anxious and quickly asked:
"What happened? How are Lu Yu and Qi Yun?"
Upon hearing this, the others exchanged strange glances, wondering if they could simply say that they were affected by the cheater's actions and that's why they were teleported out.
It’s too social!
Such silence, however, made the hearts of the beast tamers sink.
Could something have happened?
If that's the case, Luo Zisong made up his mind that he would risk his life to get those two kids out.
"It's just a minor secret realm, it's not like I haven't broken it before..." Luo Zisong felt a surge of pride and prepared to understand what had happened before speaking.
Soon, they learned that Lu Yu had not summoned the guide bird at the beginning, while Qi Yun had perfectly passed through the terrifying Bloodthirsty Dragon Tree by organizing the power of the masses.
Upon hearing this, the four Morning Star Beast Tamers nodded repeatedly, very satisfied with Qi Yun's performance. He was brave and resourceful, truly displaying the demeanor of a great general.
On the contrary, Lu Yu was as unlucky as ever, and was once again stuck in a bug in the secret realm.
But...didn't so many people pass through the second level? How come they all came out at the same time?
Was it because the third level was too difficult? Or did Lu Yu discover the pattern of the second level, which triggered the change?
However, the answer that followed left everyone dumbfounded.
Although Lu Yu did not have a guide bird, he summoned a giant dragon eagle comparable to an overlord. With one claw, it crushed the entire Bloodthirsty Dragon Forest and even tore apart the second and third layers of the secret realm, causing great chaos in the secret realm.
As for Qi Yun, he took advantage of the chaos to rush to the fourth level, and his fate is unknown.
Guan Xiangping was also shocked. He thought that reaching the third level was the limit, but he never expected that this person would make two consecutive leaps and directly reach the fourth level of the secret realm.
Pointing straight to the land of heritage!
What kind of monsters are young people these days?!
Although I guessed I would lose the bet, I lost too quickly.
Hearing this, everyone else knew that Lu Yu was about to break through the secret realm!
Thinking of this, the others felt as sour as if they had eaten lemons, wishing they could take their place.
..............................
On the other side, Lu Yu rode on the back of the dragon eagle and traveled all the way to the fourth level of the secret realm.
Here, there are no powerful dragons as one might imagine, no mysterious legacy of ancient beast tamers, and not even books or treasures.
some……
It was just a sea of blood.
The edge of the Blood Sea is a ring-shaped landmass inhabited by a large number of dragon-blooded creatures, all of whom are at least commander-level beings. This is the target of most of the trial participants.
Capturing one would significantly increase your combat power.
Click!
Just as Lu Yu was pondering, he saw a dragon-blooded creature resembling a rhinoceros suddenly stiffen and begin to tremble after drinking the water of the Blood Sea. Soon, a new blood-red tentacle forcefully grew out from under the armor, and at the same time, the dragon-like characteristics on its body became more obvious.
The concentration of dragon's blood has visibly increased.
It's somewhat similar to the legendary Dragon Transformation Pool!
However, not all dragon-blooded creatures can continue to evolve. Some creatures, after drinking large amounts of blood sea water, could not withstand the changes and twisted into fleshy lumps covered with tentacles, which were quickly devoured by the other dragon-blooded creatures.
During the tearing process, a large amount of blood flowed into the sea of blood. These dragon blood creatures, which are precious in the outside world, are nothing more than consumables here.
The entire fourth level of the secret realm is filled with a primitive savagery and cruelty!
"Is this sea of blood the source of the Dragon's Secret Realm?"
Lu Yu was shocked. As the dragon eagle flew, he soon arrived at the center of the sea of blood and saw a deep red altar standing there.
On the altar stood a strange dragon-shaped statue with seven heads intertwined in a spiral, three pairs of blood-red wings wrapped around it, and mysterious eye patterns covering its body, making it both mysterious and majestic.
The dragon eagle slowly landed on the altar and lowered its body.
Lu Yu didn't rush down. The Eye of Truth opened silently, but all the information in front of him was disordered, and the spiritual cost required was terrifyingly high, even emptying him wouldn't be enough.
It was even more terrifying than my first time in the Soul-Stealing Demon Cloud.
The water in this secret realm is indeed very deep.
However, having come this far, there was no way to back down. After making sure there were no traps, Lu Yu carefully walked onto the altar, and nothing unusual happened.
He observed with curiosity and discovered that there were many patterns carved on the ground, similar to cave murals. They roughly meant that a group of small figures were worshipping the dragon on the statue.
The dragons, on the other hand, provided them with protection, forming a special symbiotic relationship.
"Is it a sacrificial ceremony?"
Lu Yu was not surprised by this, because in real history, although humans awakened the beast-taming space, their power could not suddenly increase, and they were still extremely weak in the face of the threat of demons.
In order to survive, some tribes chose to coexist with powerful creatures, and worshipped them, calling them...
Guardian deity.
Dragon-attribute slave beasts, born through the transformation of the power of the contracted guardian deity, quickly gain immense power and also have the potential to evolve.
In return, they would offer their faith and collect a great deal of rare treasures or offerings for the guardian deity.
Even today, some places still retain this tradition. For example, Deepsea Town is a coastal village bound by blood ties and is extremely xenophobic.
They worship powerful beings that have lived in the sea for thousands of years. When members of the organization reach adulthood, they can contract aquatic beasts. Over the years, they have developed both strength and manpower, and have occupied a portion of the islands and shipping routes. Passersby are required to pay protection fees, making them extremely powerful.
In addition, there are other certified churches that also borrow the power of ancient beings and deities. The most famous example is the Church of the Pure White, which has the ability to communicate with the Pure White Heaven and can form contracts with angels and celestial beings.
However, as long as it doesn't involve sacrificing humans, the Alliance won't interfere. Instead, they're keen to help humans establish friendly relations with these powerful beings.
By having more friends and fewer enemies, the human race's strength is indirectly enhanced.
"I never imagined that there used to be a large human settlement on the border that worshipped the dragon guardian god. However, in theory, these beast tamers who control dragon beasts should have some power to resist even natural disasters."
They had every opportunity to build a city and dominate a region, just like the other major domains, but why did they disappear so quietly without leaving any trace? Could it be that there was something wrong with their guardian deity...?
Lu Yu was puzzled, but continued reading. The pattern depicted a seven-headed, hundred-eyed dragon-shaped guardian deity descending, with some ancient pictographic writing beside it, which could be translated with the Eye of Truth.
He is called—the Crimson Hundred-Eyed Dragon King!
In these written descriptions, He is portrayed as benevolent and great, but Lu Yu dismisses all such nonsense as if he were saying that capitalists are kind-hearted.
In the following patterns, a deep red glow often flashes, and many simple, chibi-style pets undergo mutation, developing dragon forms and red tentacles. They then form contracts with people, gaining immense power to cultivate the wilderness, drive away monsters, and live a prosperous life...
"What a terrible artist..."
Lu Yu couldn't help but make a comment, then continued reading, his doubts deepening.
The visuals up to this point were all good, but why did this settlement suddenly disappear?
Lu Yu soon learned the answer: it was because of the arrival of foreign enemies.
A large number of dark, twisted creatures attacked, and the pattern at their source was described as an orange-red dark sun, which made his gaze sharpen.
You should know that he himself was a victim of the Forbidden Sun, and the Forbidden Curse Mark still remains deep in his soul. If it weren't for the legendary skill that suppressed it, he would still be suffering from it now.
He knows best what terrifying secrets are hidden within the sun.
Could it be that they were also destroyed by the forbidden sun?
Lu Yu couldn't help but feel nervous, but after reading it, he was even more confused.
According to the description given by the person who created the pattern, instead of nine suns, the imagery frequently points to orange, the sun, and darkness, making it seem more like...
dusk!
"A deity associated with twilight and the sun? Could it be that infamous anti-prostitution squad member, the 'Mother of Twilight'?"
Lu Yu had memorized quite a few of the cults wanted by the Alliance, so he quickly came up with one, but he couldn't be sure, since there were many ancient entities with similar authority.
Soon, these patterns began to turn crimson. With the appearance of this deity, a large number of monsters were born in the shadows of twilight and began to kill and attack human settlements. The humans also began to fight back and, by gathering the power of the powerful creatures that could communicate with each other across the land, they barely managed to turn the tide.
Normally, the invasion of evil gods is usually done casually. Mortals are nothing but ants to them and they don't care. Therefore, cleaning up the first wave of invading followers is equivalent to ending the invasion.
But there was something on this land that this deity craved so much that he not only did not stop, but also sent more followers to launch an attack. In the end, the land was littered with corpses and nine out of ten villages were empty.
The pattern became desolate, with everything on the earth withering away, and even the hasty style of the drawing could not stop the sense of death from spreading.
It was as if everything was entering twilight, and the end was approaching.
Just as this deity descended in his avatar, ready to reap the rewards of victory, the Crimson Hundred-Eyed Dragon King suddenly attacked. It was unclear whether this was out of love for all things and reluctance to see them killed, or out of anger at the invasion of his territory...
Under its powerful, suicidal attack, it repelled this divine avatar, even opening hundreds of its eyes simultaneously, causing the heavens and earth to shatter. Finally, it forcibly tore off a portion of its body, which fell onto the earth.
Finally, the disaster ended, and the crimson dragon king perished along with it. The design abruptly ended there, seemingly bringing this calamity to a close.
Upon seeing this, Lu Yu was shocked, but at the same time, he thought of something else.
That is……
Does this mean he has a chance to obtain the Crimson Hundred-Eyed Dragon King and the body of the Supreme Being?
Seven-star! Or even...
Eight-star quality material!
