Chapter 374 Lu Yu, who traverses the river of history! Crushing the pride of all races! An undead be
Chapter 374 Lu Yu, who traverses the river of history! Crushing the pride of all races! An undead beast!
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Luo Qingyue.
But it wasn't shock, it was confusion.
Who is this woman?
"It seems to be... the granddaughter of Luo Zisong, the Undefeated Pine, from the Luo family in the capital. She should only be in her twenties. It's normal that we haven't met her before."
"Speaking of which, Luo Zisong seems to be my junior. It feels like he only started school a few days ago, and now so many years have passed in the blink of an eye. Time flies! I'm getting old!"
"But being able to stay by Lu Yu's side, she must have been affected by the monster's ecological radiation, just like Yu Xiyan. She must be a little monster herself, right?"
"Lu Yu is really lucky with women!"
"Is he stupid? He only thinks about women and doesn't realize how strong all the women around him are. Could it be that this kid's irrigation method or his bloodline is special? After all, the sun also represents reproduction, and there are quite a few young girls in my clan..."
"The sun represents fertility? What kind of association is that... Wait, the sun!"
"Heh, how foolish. How could an ordinary woman possibly catch Lu Yu's eye? But I'm not bad-looking myself!"
"Aren't you a man?"
"Yes, that's why she's different from ordinary women!"
"..."
In the human race, although most geniuses may seem weak, that is only in comparison to the geniuses of all races of the same generation. The opponents are also powerful figures who have dominated for hundreds of years.
Moreover, Lu Yu killed so many that only the strong remained, making the battle incredibly difficult.
These geniuses, relying on their family influence and their own strength, are also important figures, so it's normal that they don't recognize Luo Qingyue, a junior.
Because of Yu Xiyan's outstanding performance, many people have high expectations for Luo Qingyue.
Even if they're a little weaker, they should be able to easily exit the competition, right?
Of course, this does not include Cui Han.
She put her hand to her forehead, her chest heaving, and said speechlessly, "Where did this silly child get the courage to actually participate in the Sunset Duel Arena?"
Even if the history-type pet is a branch of the time-type, the Ancient Scholar Butterfly is able to summon powerful life projections from ancient times, making it truly formidable in combat.
But having a bug in your abilities... doesn't mean you're omnipotent.
Because Cui Han was incredibly excited after learning that Luo Qingyue had successfully evolved the ancient bookworm, she came back to see this student who had caused her to lose face in the education field. However, after researching, she discovered...
This ability has significant limitations!
To summon a target, Luo Qingyue needs to understand and analyze it, and find its origin and growth process, which is essentially archaeology.
This is not something that can be accomplished by simply reading books; it requires visiting ruins and sites in person to investigate and record any remaining traces, spiritual elements, and so on.
Only with sufficient knowledge can ancient scholars anchor their goals in the long river of history, and the more distant and ancient the powerful projection is from the present, the more difficult it is to summon.
Bringing them into the mortal world is extremely costly, but in return, it can revive some ancient beasts and heroic spirits that have long since disappeared, with unlimited potential.
However, the premise is not to touch anything from forbidden history, otherwise Luo Qingyue will not only suffer herself, but may also bring out some great horrors from history.
Although Cui Han recorded some ancient life forms with Luo Qingyue, her strength was truly lacking. However, as a peak Morning Star cultivator, she could barely defeat a beginner Radiant Beginner.
Facing Ghost Seventeen, who had decisively defeated a near-giant, there was no chance of victory, and he didn't even have the right to surrender!
As for those from more recent times, they can be summoned, but...
Living beings can directly refuse the call of history, and even if they agree, with Luo Qingyue's strength, she can at most summon beings below the level of ancient giants. After being reduced by the projection part, their strength is estimated to be only at the mid-level of the Radiant Moon.
Not only is it energy-intensive, but it's also less powerful than ancient creatures!
"The ruins of the sun are definitely not as simple as they seem!"
Previously, Cui Han had expressed doubts to Lu Yu about not being able to control the authority over the ruins, but now he has completely denied his conjecture.
After all, Lu Yu's character is one of repaying kindness. Although he is greedy, he is compassionate and willing to speak up for the common people. Luo Zisong played a very important role in his rise to power, supporting him all the way and introducing him to many connections. He was a good teacher and helpful friend.
Even if Lu Yu is wicked, he wouldn't go so far as to throw someone's only granddaughter up there to her death.
It seems that he can only slightly disrupt his opponent's choices in the duel arena, or it's just pure luck.
After all, it would have been impossible for Lu Yu to rise from the ranks of commoners on the border without great fortune.
The Star Phoenix Ancestor and the giants of the Remnant Human Clan also realized that Luo Qingyue's strength was only at the peak of the Morning Star realm, and soon they had the same idea as Cui Han.
"Very good!"
The leaders of the alien and demon factions breathed a sigh of relief. If Lu Yu really had the authority to influence the Sun Relics, they would have to find a way to get the True Kings to remove his cheat code, otherwise it would be too dangerous.
The Sacred Sun Gate, as a relic portal, is quite fair!
The leader of the Heart-Stealing Locust Clan looked delighted. Lu Yu was unable to interfere, which meant that the alien faction was about to regain the upper hand.
The victims, the Golden Winged Giant and the Four Seasons Tree Giant, were looking forward to seeing Lu Yu suffer a setback.
As for the Calamity-Crossing Tai Sui in the Sui'e Palace, it fell silent at this moment, causing many alien races to feel fear and silently keep their distance.
I sensed the calm before the storm!
The duel takes place at dusk.
Upon seeing that his opponent was Luo Qingyue, Ghost Seventeen's eyes blazed with murderous intent, and he grinned maliciously:
"Get on top of me, let me tear you to pieces!"
He was an egalitarian who saw no distinction between men and women, only the strong and the weak, and would tear apart any enemy alive.
However, what he cared about was not Luo Qingyue, but rather that as someone close to Lu Yu, killing her should provoke the other party's anger and force him to match him.
Thinking about the exhilarating battle that was about to begin, Ghost Seventeen's blood began to boil, and his vast ghostly energy condensed into a terrifying demonic shadow, distorting everything.
"Oh no... I've gotten myself killed just trying to join in the fun!"
Luo Qingyue had only participated casually to make up the numbers, but she didn't expect to be so lucky and was directly selected. The thought of her flesh and intestines spilling out all over the ground made her shudder.
It wasn't that she was afraid of death; since becoming an archaeologist, she had courted death countless times. The main reason was that a suspected largest solar ruin in the main world was right in front of her, and she was only one step away from exploring it.
But now they'll most likely die at the entrance and won't be able to participate in the excavation.
This is so frustrating!
"At least wait until I'm inside before you die!"
Luo Qingyue roared inwardly, but she understood that the Twilight Arena was the power of the Sun's Relics, and once chosen, there was no escape. Therefore, maintaining her dignity as a human Beastmaster, she didn't make a scene and began to give her final instructions:
"Grandpa, I might be going to die soon. It's a pity I couldn't eat at your feast. You'll have to eat at mine first."
Remember to make lots of braised pork knuckles, I love them, and add plenty of matcha pudding. Although I can't be there for you in your final days, you can come and pay your respects to me later. You said I was your little ancestor, and now we can practically remove the "little" part, so remember to make my tombstone pink. You can plant a watermelon on my grave, but don't let it grow randomly...”
"Why are you still thinking about clowning around at this hour?" Luo Zisong interrupted her impatiently, looking anxious.
Even if you usually dislike her, she's still your granddaughter!
"Hey!"
The Hengding Crane, standing to the side, was extremely anxious. No matter how mischievous Luo Qingyue was, it had watched her grow up and considered her its own child.
Luo Zisong knew that with his strength, he was no match for the Sun Relics, so he looked at Lu Yu on the Seat of the Fool and quickly asked, "Young Lu, do you have a way?"
To be honest, he was just trying anything as a last resort and didn't have high hopes.
If Lu Yu could truly influence the dueling arena, Luo Qingyue wouldn't have been chosen.
"have."
"So there really isn't one..." Luo Zisong's eyes dimmed, but the next second he reacted and exclaimed in surprise, "You really have a way?"
Luo Qingyue, who had been listless, suddenly brightened up and looked at Lu Yu, asking hurriedly, "Then how should we do it? Can we do it behind closed doors? I can pay more!"
Even ants struggle to survive, but she's a super ant because she can eat an enormous amount!
Lu Yu rolled his eyes upon hearing this and said speechlessly, "If I could pull strings, how could I possibly have let you be chosen? I would have already sent Dongfang Yuan to beat someone up!"
Even if he were, he wouldn't admit it, because being too high-profile could get his account banned.
This time, Luo Qingyue was indeed chosen not by Lu Yu, and even if he were to devise a plan, he wouldn't use such a novice.
It seems that because he had been cheating frequently before, acting as both a player and a referee, which went a bit too far, the Holy Sun Gate conducted a self-check and virus removal.
Fortunately, the Corona Flower was clever; it used the power of [Fate's Protection] to hide and has now begun to access deeper levels of authority.
Unexpectedly, these things happened during the gap in time.
As for... why was Luo Qingyue chosen?
Lu Yu thought it might be because she was unlucky?
Perhaps the Holy Sun Gate was interested in the guy who dug it out?
He wasted no time, directly tossing Luo Qingyue a bottle of the [Kidney-Strengthening Magic Potion] he had made earlier, and said, "Drink it."
"Gurgle, gurgle!"
Without hesitation, Luo Qingyue raised her swan-like neck and drank it all in one gulp. She quickly felt her kidneys greatly strengthened, and the recovery speed of her essence, energy, and spirit increased by at least 50%. Most importantly...
Such a powerful potion, yet I didn't experience any side effects!
Luo Qingyue was shocked and was about to ask which great alchemist had created this when she heard Lu Yu's voice continue:
"This potion costs five million; put it on your tab."
One sentence almost made Luo Qingyue spit out the medicine, but after experiencing its effects, she couldn't bear to part with it. This kind of enhancement potion without side effects would be worth buying even at a higher price.
Luo Qingyue guessed that Lu Yu probably didn't have many of them, and he was probably using them as a trump card for her now, which showed that he really cared about her.
"Money is a small matter. At worst, I'll give you the rest of Grandpa's savings." Ignoring the speechless Luo Zisong beside her, Luo Qingyue quickly asked, "And then?"
"Go up to the dueling ring, and then..." Lu Yu said with an admiring look, "eliminate Ghost Seventeen."
"Ah...me?"
Luo Qingyue looked puzzled. "I just took an enhancement potion and improved from the peak of Morning Star to the limit of Morning Star."
They couldn't escape being slapped to death by the other party!
However, before she could ask any further questions, she heard Lu Yu's voice echo in her mind:
"Remember to use the history projection capability!"
hum!
The next second, the light pillar in the Duel Arena stopped lasting for zero, directly absorbing Luo Qingyue into the arena.
boom!
The moment Luo Qingyue descended into the dueling arena, Gui Shiqi remained indifferent, waving one arm with immense force to strike the void.
The Demon God Battle Technique – A World-Shaking Force!
boom!
The void trembled, accompanied by the sound of air being torn apart. The airflow was cut and swept away in a mighty torrent, instantly hitting Luo Qingyue and shattering her into a cloud of blood mist.
"Dead?"
This scene left the human faction speechless.
That's way too weak!
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The alien and demon factions were celebrating wildly, shouting that Ghost Seventeen was taking away everything Lu Yu cherished.
"Qingyue!"
Luo Zisong's eyes were bloodshot as he glared at Gui Shiqi with hatred, only to find a look of confusion on the latter's face.
"This is……"
At this moment, Ghost Seventeen discovered that the Crown of the Sun behind his head had not condensed, and that the blood mist was somewhat strange. It did not fall to the ground, but was constantly writhing in the air and rapidly gathering together.
She transformed back into Luo Qingyue's appearance, and a summoning array condensed around her, producing a beautiful, illusory butterfly, like yellowed, burning pages of a book, dreamlike and ethereal, as if her true form did not exist in this world. Her dark compound eyes held a human-like wisdom and composure.
Fluttering wings composed of countless ancient characters, swirling around Luo Qingyue, it danced in the air, its siphon-like mouthparts disappearing into the phantom of the long river of history, drawing nourishment to replenish the enormous consumption it had just used.
At the same time, numerous bands of light spread from its body, drawing out a black rabbit projection. Its body constantly shattered and reformed, like a favorite mosaic, constantly deforming, its eyes warily watching its surroundings.
"Ancient Extraordinary Species—The Immortal Rabbit!"
Ghost Seventeen recognized the rabbit's identity at a glance.
This is a rare pet beast that existed in ancient times, born in a special disintegration realm, where all living things, inanimate objects, even inorganic matter and tiny particles, do not constantly break down and then recombine. No life can survive there, except for a special ancient species—the Particle Rabbit.
They are not strong, and while it's not that they are not warlike, they are extremely timid. Even when they encounter a life form much weaker than themselves, they will turn and run away.
But these seemingly weak beings possess an extremely powerful racial talent—particle reversion!
It allows the user to return to the most basic particle state, thus offsetting forces hundreds of times greater than their own, reducing damage, and spreading blood mist to make enemies think they have self-destructed, causing them to give up the pursuit. Once it is safe to do so, the user can then piece their body back together.
A powerful individual once hunted a particle rabbit dozens of times, but it survived each time. Finally, the rabbit was captured due to its immense energy depletion, and before the particles could return to their original state, the individual successfully killed it.
Therefore, it is also known as the "immortal rabbit".
It was less of a compliment and more of a mockery.
Because many ancient races later captured Particle Rabbits in an attempt to study this ability, they ultimately gained nothing, causing this already small race to disappear into the annals of history.
Numerous relics and ancient documents prove that they once existed in this world.
Gui Shiqi had read the clan's compiled history and, upon seeing this ability, had scoffed at it, calling it a group of cowards who had gained powerful abilities. He was deeply impressed by this race.
I couldn't find it, but today I actually saw a live... projection!
Such bizarre historical abilities have also attracted the attention of many giants.
This little girl has terrifying potential!
"The immortal particle rabbit..." Lu Yu narrowed his eyes. His Eye of Truth had already seen the particle rabbit projection on Luo Qingyue, so he wasn't worried about this little newbie getting into trouble.
On the contrary, I'm a little curious...
Previously, in order to choose the avatar for the rat, he had read a lot of information about ancient alien species. Among them, the Undying Rabbit's ability to return to its particles could greatly enhance the rat clones' survival ability and combat power, and decompose all things in the world, which made him very envious.
It's a pity that they had given up hope because of the extinction, and I was saddened for several days. Unexpectedly, Luo Qingyue actually restored herself, and it seems that the projection level is very high, which means...
It has a prototype!
On the dueling field.
"Thank goodness, I almost became a scumbag. Luckily, my teacher took me to the Alliance headquarters beforehand to see the Particle Rabbit's remains and documents for documentation, and we even saw specimens, establishing sufficient [historical coordinates]. Otherwise, I would have been finished."
A thought flashed through Luo Qingyue's mind, and without the slightest hesitation, she uttered those three words: "I admit it..."
boom!
Before he could finish speaking, the void tore open, and the airflow was mercilessly cut by the immense power, creating an absolute vacuum environment within a ten-mile radius, thus isolating the sound.
Ghostly Battle Technique - Vacuum Seal!
Luo Qingyue, relying on the overlord's powerful physique, could hold her breath for a whole day without any problem, but she lost the opportunity to surrender.
Ghost Seventeen, now intrigued, grinned maliciously, "I didn't expect to have an appetizer before facing Lu Yu. History-related abilities—let's see how many ancient creatures you can control..."
After saying that, he threw another punch.
boom!
A black light curtain shone from the Particle Rabbit's eyes, enveloping Luo Qingyue. She returned to her particle state, blocked the attack, and reassembled her body.
"Hiss—"
The ancient scholar Die Fu's eyes revealed a hint of weariness, while the particle rabbit, entangled by the will of history, broke free from even more constraints. If it happened again, its body would shatter completely and return to the illusory shadow of the long river of history.
Projections only replicate a portion of the original's power; they cannot surpass the original, and their power is not unlimited.
Each overdraft will summon them back to their original historical coordinates, shortening their time in the present world.
If it is shattered too many times, it will be hated by the projection of history, requiring a period of time to summon it, or even completely exhausting the spiritual imprint engraved in history by the other party, making it impossible to summon it.
"This is troublesome!"
Luo Qingyue felt heavy-hearted. After all, she had only recorded the projections of four ancient creatures this time. Once she used them all, she would surely die, so she had to be careful.
The ancient scholar Die beside him also began to weaken, but fortunately, she had Luo Qingyue's racial talent [Soul Link], which allowed her to share injuries and buffs.
Therefore, they share the [Conserve Energy] buff, quickly restoring their spirit and spiritual energy.
Ghost Seventeen attacked again, pressing forward relentlessly with a ferocious gaze, treating Luo Qingyue as nothing more than an amusing toy.
Prepare to toy with it like a cat playing with a mouse, until it dies!
So he threw another punch!
Upon seeing this, Luo Qingyue was greatly alarmed and immediately issued a new command: "Ancient scholar Butterfly, use historical coordinates to anchor..."
"The Sky Shield Dragon, slain in Heartbreak Valley seven hundred years ago!"
"Hiss—" The ancient scholars fluttered like butterflies, as if in an ancient sacrificial ceremony, scattering countless scales and powder.
A projection of a colossal dragon, hundreds of meters long and possessing a massive shield-like head, descended, raising its head to block all attacks.
It belongs to the pure-blooded dragons. Although it is not extinct, it is extremely rare and possesses the ultimate defensive and offensive capabilities.
It is known as the unbreakable shield of the dragon race!
The source is an ancient Sky Shield Dragon skeleton with its extraordinary organs removed. It was a collectible hunted by Cui Han's friend, a big shot in the Alliance headquarters, and has a complete historical coordinate.
It can capture its strongest moment from history, and even if it is weakened in reality, it can still unleash the power of a mid-level Radiant Moon.
In terms of defensive capabilities alone, it is even comparable to the ultimate version of the Radiant Moon.
"roar!"
The Sky Shield Dragon Roars in the world, its shield-like face adorned with countless ancient and mysterious patterns, shining brightly like the wall of an ancient holy city.
Splash!
The moment the two collided, a terrifying shockwave swept across the world, and numerous cracks appeared on the shield of the Sky Shield Dragon.
As expected of a pureblood dragon that excels in defense, it is now only one-third broken.
"It can still withstand two more attacks. Surrender now..." Luo Qingyue's expression was full of surprise, and she instructed the ancient scholar butterfly beside her to condense words of surrender.
Seeing this, Ghost Seventeen's smile grew even brighter, and he attacked again:
"A serious punch!"
boom!
The Sky Shield Dragon's ultimate defense was shattered instantly, turning into countless fragments scattered across the sky, and the Sky Shield Dragon returned to the annals of history.
Upon seeing this, Luo Qingyue quickly summoned another ancient creature projection.
Shapeshifter!
He instantly teleported to the edge of the dueling arena, escaping the vacuum zone, and quickly said:
"cast……"
He was still halfway through his sentence when he was blasted away by the force of a punch.
"hateful!"
After several attempts, Luo Qingyue's face turned ugly, realizing that the other party was deliberately toying with her.
The moment the fourth ancient creature's historical projection descends will be her death day, but even if she doesn't summon it, she will be toyed with until she dies!
Thinking of this, Luo Qingyue became even angrier, not at others, but at herself.
Why...
Why can't I be even stronger!
If I advance to the Radiant Moon rank, I might be able to summon a more complete projection.
But now, it's all too late!
Thinking of this, Luo Qingyue looked at the ancient scholar Die with a solemn expression, preparing to summon the fourth ancient creature. Halfway through the summoning, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind, causing her to stop and look conflicted.
"The fear of the weak is truly foolish and laughable." Ghost Seventeen thought that Luo Qingyue had given up resisting, and felt a little bored. He stretched out his hand and slowly clenched his fist. The air around Luo Qingyue began to tighten, transforming into a huge invisible hand.
Ghostly Battle Technique - Hand of Nirvana!
I'm going to crush it into pieces.
This scene sparked a frenzy among the alien faction.
Luo Zisong looked grim, and many human geniuses shook their heads, sighed, and looked away.
"You really want to challenge Lu Yu that badly?" Luo Qingyue suddenly asked.
"Killing you won't stop me from encountering other human geniuses!" Ghost Seventeen replied indifferently, his hand already closed, a howling wind raging across the entire Duel Arena.
"Since you're so eager for it, why not face him now?"
However, amidst the howling wind, Luo Qingyue suddenly opened her mouth, bit off a piece of her clothing, and used it as a hairband to tie herself into a high ponytail. As the wind blew, she stood up and her gaze became heroic and spirited.
She looked calmly at the invisible hand that could crush her at any moment, and at the particle rabbit that still had one use left:
"Ancient scholar Butterfly, using historical projection..."
"Coordinates: Dusk Arena"
"Time: Lu Yu, one hour ago!"
boom!
As soon as he finished speaking, the ancient scholar butterfly beside him suddenly burst forth with countless historical dust particles, displaying a rusty red color, like the dust of history, yet carrying a mysterious and dazzling brilliance, reflecting the phantom of the long river of history.
It came in a grand and majestic manner, reflecting the rise and fall of countless civilizations, the life and death, glory and desolation of countless heroes.
Even a true king is just a chapter in history; even the most supreme and great beings will be buried by history in the past.
Become a forgotten Old God!
This scene made everyone who witnessed the long river of history feel their own insignificance.
That is a branch of time, the power of history!
"Hiss—" The ancient scholar butterfly danced in the gale, its scales shimmering with light, and countless tentacles searched for Lu Yu from an hour ago.
"How is that possible..."
With a sigh, Luo Qingyue found no trace of Lu Yu.
All the images of genius that were shattered became blurred images, gradually fading away.
It's as if Lu Yu didn't exist in history at all!
If it doesn't exist, then it cannot be summoned!
boom!
Nirvana's hand descended, crushing Luo Qingyue into a bloody mist.
The next second, she was reshaped once again, but the historical tendrils on the particle rabbit had completely shattered and returned to the river of history.
"Did we lose...?"
As Luo Qingyue felt death approaching, blood spilled from the corner of her mouth, flowing down her pale skin and adding to her fragility, yet she stood straight in the raging wind, never bowing her head.
She is Luo Qingyue, a mythologist, and Luo Qianqiu, an investigator.
Even when leaving the stage, one should still do it with style!
"History will bear witness to my death!"
Luo Qianqiu opened her arms as if embracing the whole world.
"Let's end this pointless farce!"
Ghost Seventeen completely lost his patience, threw a punch, and prepared to send her on her way.
Glug glug!
At the same time, a mysterious voice rang out, and a wheel formed from countless historical dust slowly rolled in. It was not tall, but it contained an indescribable momentum.
It came rolling in, crushing everything in its path!
A figure followed behind it, slowly approaching.
"So you really summoned Lu Yu's projection?" Ghost Seventeen raised an eyebrow, but quickly lost interest, sneering, "I'd be wary of the real Lu Yu, but a mere projection... just shatter it!"
Ghostly and Divine Battle Technique - Floating Dragon Seal!
His six arms blasted out, and a vast expanse of ghostly energy rose up, transforming into a roaring evil dragon that swept away, ready to forcefully shatter Lu Yu's historical projection.
boom!
However, at this moment, endless light and wind converged, shaking the world and easily annihilating Ghost Seventeen's attack!
"What!" Ghost Seventeen's pupils shrank, and the next second, he saw the figure getting closer and closer, raising one foot to step over the dust of history and enter the present world.
Splash!
At the same time, a huge, radiant footprint appeared in the sky above the Dusk Arena, descending with immense power.
"I don't believe it!!"
Feeling the terrifying power contained within, Ghost Seventeen roared, its twelve arms waving in unison, attempting to lift it up, transforming into a giant supporting the sky.
However, the next second, he was stomped straight into the ground.
The earth trembled violently, and the sound was deafening, plunging the entire world into silence.
Only one voice echoed:
"All races should bow down before me!"
