Chapter 205: The Complete Collapse of the Illusionary Realm

“Argh!”

The unprecedented pain caused Lu Yu to scream out in pain. This pain was not only physical, but it was also mental.

It was like a red-hot branding iron pressing down on his soul, imprinting a bright red burn mark.

A powerful mental power emanated from himself, soaring straight into the space of darkness with no light. The layers of barriers were violently smashed through. An anguished scream could be heard vaguely. The voice forgot about Lu Yu temporarily and the barb arrows all disappeared.

Enveloped by the plume of black gas, Lu Yu’s body emitted a ray of red light suddenly. It mingled with the black gas to become a ray of dark red light.

Under the Demonic Armor, his skin had turned into a bloody mangled mess, full of gaping wounds and ulcers. This set of armor on his body kept absorbing his blood continuously. Lu Yu’s eyes had also turned blood-red like the eye sockets of the demonic skulls on his two spaulders.

Waves of intense tearing sensation assaulted him one after another. Lu Yu’s mind felt as if it was being stirred by a knife. The pain was so excruciating that he fell to the ground, his body racked by convulsions non-stop.

The Ice Heart skill had completely lost its effect. As Lu Yu gradually became maniacal, a red demonic skull imprint emerged on his forehead.

His whole being resembled a dark red sun. That mental power that radiated outwards was like an outpouring of dark red light, shooting out constantly and lighting up this space of darkness without light.

Lu Yu was recovering his memory rapidly , but he had yet to recover his senses. “My vanished memory is returning. I have not forgotten myself.”

The Demon trapped in the bead and on the verge of collapse sensed the oncoming change and was ecstatic. Then, sensing the change in Lu Yu, his eyes suddenly widened as he felt an unprecedented shock.

“Is this… this still him?”

“What kind of monstrous mental power is this? He can actually transform into such a tyrannical, arrogant persona.”

In his eyes, Lu Yu, clad in the Demonic Armor, had undergone a dramatic change in aura at this moment. He was like a totally different person. No! He was no longer human, but a real demon who was more demonic than the Demon himself!

“Am I going to die here?” Lu Yu, who had just averted the earlier crisis, fell into another crisis. He gave a bitter laugh.

The ominous armor certainly lived up to its reputation. This set of Demonic Armor on his body was like a life form that had been resurrected. It was greedily devouring his blood, his strength, his mental power and health vitality. Now, it seemed that it was going to devour his soul as well.

He felt that his body was like a star that had accelerated its nuclear reaction speed. It was bursting out with the most violent energy, and moving rapidly toward the end of his life.

Lu Yu’s realm broke through the barriers abruptly and reached Great Grand Master Grade 9. That aura from his whole body felt more like a War General’s aura than that from an actual War General himself. It might not be far-fetched to say that even War Generals would tremble with fear if they were to encounter it.

“Even if I am dying, I still want to leave this damn place!” Lu Yu, who was silent for a moment, had a thought.

His left and right hand each grasped the Dragon Blood Battle Saber and the Blood Emperor Battle Saber that materialized.

At this moment, Lu Yu’s life force was rapidly depleting, but he seemed to have a constant source of power. The two S-class weapons burst forth with saber energy that was more terrifying than ever before, which then sliced through this space.

“8-directional Cleave!”

The Demon trapped in the bead was greatly astonished. It was just a simple beam of saber energy, yet it was powerful enough to tear this illusionary realm to shreds.

“I’d like to see how powerful this SS-class Fearsome Beast is.” Lu Yu said in an icy tone as he felt the speed of devouring by the Demonic Armor on his body accelerating.

Perhaps, after killing that Hundred-Eyed Purple Dragon and letting this Demonic Armor absorb it, the armor would stop devouring once it reached the upper limit.

Clang!

The sound of sabers clashing tore through the air. The blazing saber light swept out far and wide, continuously tearing the illusionary realm to shreds.

The Furnace Skill, Critical Hit Enhancement, Gravitational Force, Red Lotus Battle Energy, Sea of Lava… All these skills were activated.

He circulated the Emerald Emperor’s Method and Major Circumambulation Breathing Technique. More health vitality was created and subsequently transformed into strength. With the support of the mental power from the Demonic Armor, Lu Yu’s strength reached another peak.

That gargantuan layer of purple light veil in the sky that overshadowed the blood-sucking wasteland was being sliced open viciously at a rate visible to the naked eye. A giant fissure started to appear.

Following that, the second, the third, the fourth… More and more fissures appeared, and the purple light veil was covered with cracks. Boom! With a deafening explosion, a huge gap was broken through.

The illusionary realm was collapsing!

The same was true in the sky above Lunan City, where the purple light veil looked like a mirror cracking open, exposing the clear sky above.

“The purple light veil that is covering the sky is crumbling. I can feel the power of the illusionary realm weakening.”

“It’s Advisor Lu. It must be Advisor Lu. He’s responsible!”

When the captains of the various battalions of the First Military Unit saw this scene unfolding before their eyes, they were ecstatic. Wang Lu’s deeply troubled expression immediately relaxed substantially. He said with a hearty laugh, “Hahaha… I told you. I was right about this brat. He really did it!”

Song Yu and Qin Yong were also very excited. It looked like Lunan City could avert this crisis completely now.

“Everyone, listen up! The moment that Hundred-Eved Purple Drazon wakes

up, we attack!” Wang Lu issued an order. All the cultivators of the First Military Unit all rubbed their hands in anticipation, eager to jump into action.

As the individual illusionary realms shattered one after another, the cultivators who were trapped in them were saved. After having experienced the despair of the illusionary realms, every one of them was overjoyed at having survived the calamity.

Deep in the blood-sucking wasteland, Ji Xi and Uncle Fu were also watching this scene and were equally astounded. They were already planning to temporarily abandon Lunan City to request reinforcements from the capital. They did not expect Lu Yu could really accomplish this.

“This kid has really impressed me. It is the good fortune of our federal government, the good fortune of humankind, that such a talent showed up in the Gamma Military Zone.” Uncle Fu was becoming more appreciative of Lu Yu’s ability.

However, Ji Xi frowned slightly. She watched the beams of saber energy criss-crossing everywhere, full of explosive force that made her shudder. At the same time, she also sensed that something seemed to be very wrong with Lu Yu’s current state. There were signs that indicated he was depleting himself dangerously and rushing headlong into self-destruction.

She did not know what happened exactly, but since this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Ji Xi yelled in a shrill voice, “Uncle Fu, come with me!”

The massive collapse of the illusionary realm would surely awaken the Hundred-Eyed Purple Dragon. At that point, it would be time for a showdown, and she had already sensed a trace of the SS-class Fearsome Beast’s exhalation.

In a deep canyon in the inner depths of the blood-sucking wasteland, that wisp of exhalation billowed out and turned into a puff of purple smoke.

“Arrow of Moon’s Chariot!”

Standing overhead in the sky, Ji Xi looked down from above. She performed the act of pulling back the arrow against the bow, and a large green bow materialized, glistening with condensed moonlight radiance. In a flash, a moonlight arrow flew out like a shooting star.

The entire abyss exploded when the arrow hit it and the shattered debris scattered wildly.

The half-asleep Hundred-Eyed Purple Dragon was woken up completely. It let out an angry roar as its numerous purple eyes opened, shooting out purple light everywhere.

A colossal beast about 100 meters tall crawled out from the cavern. Its body was densely covered with eyes, and a terrifying aura came sweeping across.

“This is not possible.” Outside the blood -sucking wasteland, Du Feng was shocked beyond words when he saw what happened.

He was shocked not by the awakened Hundred-Eyed Purple Dragon, nor by the power of Ji Xi’s arrow, but by the fact that someone was actually able to break through the many layers of illusionary realm blocking his way and shatter the huge purple light veil that spread across the sky..
