Chapter 462: The world is the coffin, the mother river is the graveyard! Ceremony of ascension!
The mysterious consciousness in the central tree was silent for a moment after hearing this, and seemed to be shocked by Lu Yu's action.
Boom!
The next second, the vast pressure swept over and enveloped the entire Tianhuang Nest.
"Don't be impatient, this game has just begun."
Lu Yu raised his fingers lightly and tapped the armrest of the bone throne.
Buzz!
The bones trembled slightly, playing the music of the dead. The small corpse planet under it trembled continuously, and endless black air rose and condensed into a dragon shadow, carrying countless dead faces and their pain, constantly piling up and pressing down.
That is... the weight of death!
"Roar!"
However, the dragon shadow was not crushed, but became more excited, roaring to the sky.
The vast dragon power swept through the Phoenix Nest, causing the ecological main-level dead creatures in the darkness to gradually annihilate and return to nothingness.
The dead creatures born in the bodies of the Ancient Phoenix Clan were shattered in an instant, trying to revive and continue to struggle, but were soon covered by the skeleton planet and suppressed by the City of Reincarnation.
The crown of the central tree made a "rustling" sound, and the black and white leaves condensed and turned into chains of law trees, covering the sky, with a majestic momentum!
"What happened?"
Huang Yun and the others were shocked. They had no idea what Lu Yu had done to reverse the situation in an instant.
"As expected!" Chiyue Honglian was used to it. No secret realm could escape the clutches of Huangmao.
It was just that the speed of this man's attack was getting faster and faster!
Lu Yu smiled playfully, looking at the Chain of Order that was not coming down from the sky, and four words emerged in his mind...
Strong on the outside but weak on the inside!
Come to think of it, the other party should think... A mere outsider is bound to be drowned or dragged by the creatures of the dead realm.
Even if Lu Yu tried his best to enter the Ladder of Life and Death, he had to follow the rules of the game and be easily controlled by it.
If you wait until the Dance of Nirvana ends and the Phoenix Nest is closed, it will be like closing the door to fight the dog.
But unfortunately, Lu Yu never liked to be arranged by others, so he directly took action... to
remove the firewood from under the cauldron!
The creatures in the dead realm, like many other races including the Ancient Phoenix Clan, have the privilege of immortality. They are the mirror images born when life dies countless times.
Therefore, they have no wisdom and will not feel the pain of death. On the contrary, they will become stronger because they are constantly killed.
This is the most frightening thing about the creatures in the dead realm.
They are essentially the embodiment of death. Killing them again and again will only make themselves closer to the destined death.
Even cause and effect cannot cut off death, but...
reincarnation can!
The original and ultimate purpose of reincarnation is to control life and death.
When these two forces close to the supreme law begin to rotate, everything will tend to be more balanced, which is most in line with the requirements of the Mother River.
That's why after birth, it was easy to hide the mastermind!
As for why the other party wanted to prevent reincarnation and birth?
Lu Yu didn't know either. It was probably related to the great existence that holds the power of life and death. After all, interests are related and the benefits are the greatest.
No one likes to have more bosses above their heads.
There is a small probability that it is a forbidden existence. Although the meaning is unclear, they are inherently illogical.
It is normal to do anything, just like he is the master of the forbidden gate, isn't he also climbing up in the world now?
"It can't be the truth, right?"
Lu Yu muttered, but he did not rule out this possibility in his heart.
After all, almost no one knows about the existence of the Death Tree, not even in the Alliance's information database.
What this means is that Lu Yu has not encountered any incidents where he was stopped due to insufficient authority.
In other words, all traces of the Death Tree have been artificially erased.
Only seven royal trees that divide the Death Path are left, floating in the Mother River, casting shadows over all the heavens and worlds, spreading the corresponding death ecology.
They and the three great beings of the underworld, the Emperor of Hidden Bones, the Lord of Tranquility, and the God of the Underworld, are collectively known as the [Ten Gods of the Underworld].
The broken Death Path is enough to carry ten great beings, and in its complete state, it is likely to accommodate a taboo.
Most importantly, this information comes from the period when the Eye of Truth was just opened. Logically, such advanced secrets should not be revealed.
Is it simply harmless to oneself, or is there also a judgment of the law of truth in it?
Lu Yu didn't know, and he didn't think deeply about this question. After all, as long as the strength is sufficient, everything will naturally be known from the Eye of Truth.
And he got two key pieces of information from the ancient phoenix clan, and he
was completely sure... This is stable!
The first is that the dead creatures come from the countless deaths of the natives of the Phoenix Nest.
Their immortality is even more bizarre, and it is impossible to defeat them from the front until they are dragged to death by them, or they are attached with the curse of immortality. The side effect is also obvious, that is, there is a root.
As long as it is eradicated, it can be cut off.
That is, these natives of the Phoenix Nest.
If it was the first few thousand years, they would definitely not be willing to die like this, and wanted to wait for the resurrection of the immortal Phoenix.
Even Lu Yu might not be able to kill these top giants who have accumulated a lot of experience over the years.
But now... times have changed!
Hundreds of thousands of years have passed, and the natives of the entire Phoenix Nest have died countless times. Especially after reaching the limit of lifespan, they feel the weight of death increasing almost every day, and there is no immortal fire of the ancient phoenix clan to offset it.
Faced with this extreme pain, they have long been driven crazy.
Now, as long as they can be given the opportunity to die, they are reborn as parents.
Ordinary people cannot kill it, but his pet can use the law of reincarnation, which is equivalent to opening a plug-in to erase data in this land of the undead.
In front of him, there is only killing and temporarily unable to kill.
The undead do not exist!
Erasing the existence of the rat can actually achieve a similar effect, making the undead curse forget its target, but the cost is too high.
The effort is not proportional to the reward.
Therefore, Lu Yu has been struggling for so long, not only to arrange his trump cards, but also to know that he will receive unprecedented attention as the stick that stirs up this stagnant water.
When the Undead Phoenix enters the abyss, they will all wake up, enter the killing state, and then show the ability to cut off death...
This is equivalent to throwing a bottle of water in front of several people who are about to die of thirst in the desert, which will inevitably attract crazy rush.
For them, death is a happy thing for everyone. If they fail, there is no loss, at most they will remain the same!
No one is a fool, they just have no choice!
Of course, Lu Yu is not without a price, that is, he needs to bear their death and suffer pollution.
However, Lu Yu's status was destined to be unaffected, and there was a sentence in the super-evolved chant of the Dust Dragon, the eroded form of Dandan...
"Bearing the weight of death."
Lu Yu's evaluation of Dandan as a natural god-killing weapon was no joke.
The side effects of death cannot fill its eternal hunger.
The more deaths it controls, the stronger it is.
Therefore, using the corpses of countless powerful natives of the Phoenix Nest as materials is not only to wipe out the opponent's best helper (dead creatures), but also to shape a corpse planet composed of huge skeletons, with combat power comparable to that of an eco-master.
Although it can only be used a few times, during the Nirvana Phoenix Festival, the Phoenix Court and the Palace of the Phoenix containing the law cannot be used, and the central tree is only an eco-master even if it reaches the top. This
gave Lu Yu the qualifications to compete with him.
The second piece of information mentioned that the sacred tree that was suspected to be the descendant of the royal tree had gained consciousness.
This is not difficult to understand. It is a problem that the descendants of the royal tree have no will, but the strange thing is...
it borrowed the Nirvana Phoenix Festival to suppress the two treasures, the Phoenix Court and the Palace of the Sky Phoenix, and then allowed the creatures in the dead realm to drive the ancient phoenix clan to the marginal corner of the land of reincarnation.
Highlight the key points, which need to be tested.
What does this mean?
Since it did not sweep across everything, it means that it is not strong enough and is even a little weak.
Here comes the question, how can the descendant of the royal tree that can coexist with the immortal sky phoenix and cover the entire ecological kingdom be a weakling?
Even if he was suppressed by the Undead Phoenix in his lifetime, it wouldn't take so long for him to lose control of his own power?
Unless...
While Lu Yu was thinking, he looked at the Central Tree in the distance and chuckled, "Aren't you ready to come out yet?"
Boom!
There was no response to his words. A vast spiritual power erupted around the Central Tree, and countless chains of laws swept over. He
even disdained to communicate with him.
"Heavenly Skeleton Yinglong!"
Lu Yu was not to be outdone. He manipulated the corpse planet to grow a series of terrifying, winged skeleton dragon heads that bit and bit away. The vast power of death spread.
The two collided in the sky, shattering all the chains of order.
Boom!
The vast spiritual energy wave swept through the Phoenix Nest, shaking everything.
"Stop it!" Huang Yun was surprised. She didn't expect that this human was so strong that he could challenge the central tree and even gain the upper hand.
"Be careful." The Ancient Phoenix Clan leader narrowed his eyes and warned.
In the air, countless broken leaves floated down.
Some of them just fell on the corpse planet. Countless skeletons began to tremble "buzzingly" and came back to life again. The soul fire burned in their eye sockets, and they roared, trying to climb out of them.
Lu Yu on the throne also shook violently.
The secret - the leaf of reincarnation!
The reincarnation royal tree holds the power to revive the dead.
As long as the skeleton is revived, the corpse planet will disintegrate from the inside, and the dead creatures will return.
Lu Yu will lose this biggest trump card and be slaughtered by the opponent.
However, facing this method, Lu Yu just clapped his hands.
Snap! Snap!
On the ground, black and red pillars rose one after another, with the blood of the ancient phoenix still remaining on them, spreading out countless roots and connecting to the underground.
The next second, the Phoenix Nest shook violently, and the sky and the earth shook in an instant.
Everyone was shocked and soon realized... There was a problem with the undead Phoenix corpse outside.
All I heard was Lu Yu saying leisurely, "It just so
happens that I have mastered a ritual of the life system, which can affect the corpses of the ancestors of my own clan through blood ties. I can't manipulate them, of course, but I'm curious, if the Undead Sky Phoenix can't perform the Phoenix Nirvana Ceremony, will it run out of power and directly fall to the Abyss Plane?"
Lu Yu's voice was joking, with a hint of amusement.
This time, he lied.
Because this is not a ritual, but through Shushu's status as the Heavenly Red King, the blood of the Ancient Phoenix was fused, the breath was simulated, and the rules of this undead kingdom were eroded together with Dandan and the rules of heaven.
Under normal circumstances, the erosion of the ecological kingdom would be directly shattered by the law, but the silence of the Nirvana Phoenix Dance gave him a chance.
Although it is impossible to control the corpse of the demigod in the world, it is enough to make it close to the will of the abyss and trigger the fall.
At that time, it will cause a series of problems, and perhaps all life in the entire Tianhuang Nest will be destroyed.
Without a carrier, the undead curse cannot take effect.
As for Lu Yu and Chiyue Honglian being on it,
are you kidding me about the death substitute?
Moreover, the energy of reincarnation has already gathered two strands in advance, which is enough to maintain invincibility for two seconds, and maybe even save the fruit of death.
Lu Yu deeply understands that it is far from enough to have the qualifications for dialogue, and he must also have the ability to overturn the table.
Only in this way will the opponent be cautious!
"Alas."
As the voice fell, a faint sigh came from the central sacred tree, which turned into a telepathic voice, echoing in the world:
"What do you want?"
The voice was calm, and it was impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman. It was like the deep darkness, without any ripples.
"It spoke!"
Huang Yun was shocked. Although they knew the existence of the other party, when they were driven away, the other party did not show up at all, let alone communicate.
It was a completely overlooking posture.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yu, who had not even been to the Stairway of Life and Death, forced the other party to give in.
When the Ancient Phoenix Clan leader heard this voice, he narrowed his eyes, and it was unknown what he was thinking.
Crimson Moon Red Lotus was surprised. This time, could they take down the Phoenix Nest without bloodshed?
"Give me the Phoenix Court and the Phoenix Palace, and your tree seeds!" Lu Yu did not hesitate and directly stated the conditions that he had already conceived.
"Impossible!" The consciousness of the Central Tree decisively rejected the unreasonable request.
"If you can't even do this little request, then let's not talk about it." Lu Yu shrugged, opened a bag of snacks and started eating, with a very casual attitude.
"..." The Central Tree paused for a moment. It was the first time that it encountered a negotiation mode that did not give it a chance to bargain, but directly turned the table.
It said: "After the Nirvana Phoenix Festival is over, you will be trapped here and die."
"It's okay. I think the scenery here is okay. It's okay to live here for a while." Lu Yu looked like he was ready to be killed.
After a long silence, the Central Tree gave in: "I can't give you the Phoenix Court, only the Sky Phoenix Palace and the seeds."
"Is that so? This is enough for me alone, but my beloved relative has come here with so much hardship. I can't let her go empty-handed." Lu Yu pondered and glanced at the Red Moon Red Lotus beside him.
Beloved???
When Chiyue Honglian heard this, she selectively listened to these two words. Her fair cheeks were instantly covered with red, her mind was in a mess, her body was tense, her voluptuous thighs trembled slightly, and she almost returned to her original form, revealing her succubus tail.
This is not good, it's too exciting...
This is my future brother-in-law!
As the saying goes, a brother-in-law is half as good as a sister-in-law. Although she is also very tempted, but...
How can he say this so easily!
Chiyue Honglian's eyes flashed with love. After a struggle between heaven and man, she wanted to explain, but her... sister's man was talking about serious matters, so she didn't dare to speak.
Although she looks strong and cold on the outside, Chiyue Honglian is very conservative inside and has the mentality of a little woman.
Will obey a strong spouse.
But he is my brother-in-law...
The central tree paused for a moment and gave the answer: "One drop of the uncontaminated spiritual blood of the immortal sky phoenix is enough for the red bird to hold the Phoenix Feast Ceremony and evolve into the Hell Phoenix Blood Bird. This is the limit of what I can give."
Its voice was indifferent, but it carried a hint of decisiveness.
Lu Yu probably knew that this was the other party's psychological bottom line. Maybe he could still bargain, but he had to leave a way out. So he pretended to be reluctant and nodded:
"Okay, give me the thing."
Buzz!
The central tree shone with brilliance, and the white light disc player dispersed the darkness, revealing the remaining huge ecosystems of the Sky Phoenix Nest.
The black Fusang tree sea that spread over millions of miles...
the Immortal River like a sea of blood...
and more ecosystems.
At this moment, the planet became empty because of Lu Yu's corpse.
The black and white light condensed into a phoenix bird, which kept interweaving together and turned into a ladder of life and death, spreading upward.
Until it led to a mysterious and magnificent palace covered with Phoenix feathers in the sky, floating quietly in the void.
It presented a strange feeling of flesh and blood intertwined with dead things.
It was more like a peerless beauty wearing gorgeous feather clothes than a building.
"Palace of Phoenix!" Huang Yun looked surprised. Even if she hadn't seen it for thousands of years, she could recognize it instantly.
Looking at it from a distance, the thought of breeding would surge in her heart.
The reason for this is that it belongs to the extraordinary organ used by the immortal Phoenix to breed offspring, and it is also the source of the fire of Nirvana.
Nirvana is essentially a process of re-birth of life.
Returning to the original self.
Near the Phoenix Palace, there is a brilliant royal court composed of burning skyfire runes. It is condensed by the pure power of rules and a kind of power that Lu Yu cannot describe but is majestic. Even though it has been silent, it still exudes a terrifying aura. Even
Lu Yu, who controls the corpse planet, will be crushed in an instant.
"Fortunately, the power was drained by the Nirvana Phoenix Festival, otherwise I could be easily shocked to death."
Lu Yu sighed in his heart at the power of this near-god-level True King. He manipulated the corpse planet to condense a skeleton Yinglong head, opened his mouth and bit the Palace of the Sky Phoenix, and was about to drag it back.
In the crown of the central tree, countless spiritualities condensed into a vague figure of a woman, wearing black feathers, raising her fingers and tapping the void.
Buzz!
The deep part of the Phoenix Court, which had been sleeping because of the power being drained, suddenly burst out with a power that swept the world, making the souls of all creatures tremble and unable to move.
That is...
"Sky Phoenix Law!" The hoarse voice of the leader of the Ancient Phoenix Clan rang out.
The vast power of the law has descended, transformed into the shadow of the Phoenix, and enveloped the sky.
Even if there is only a trace of it, the law is a great power that cannot be touched by mortals.
Chiyue Honglian was also stunned by this sudden attack, but she reacted quickly and subconsciously wanted to use the power left by her mother. However, at this time...
someone pushed her from behind, and she moved dozens of miles away along the gap in the void, staggering to stabilize her body.
Lu Yu sat on the skeleton throne, watching the attack quietly, not because he didn't want to evacuate, but because he had been locked.
Since there was no way to retreat, he didn't get hysterical, but just said meaningfully: "It turned out to be..."
Before he finished speaking,
the phoenix shadow condensed by the law had fallen, and the flames engulfed everything!
Boom!
"No..." The pupils of the Red Moon Lotus shrank to the size of a needle, reflecting the Phoenix shadow of the roaring world. Lu Yu and the corpse planet were engulfed in flames. The hurricane caused by the aftermath blew her away even if she was dozens of miles away.
The people of the Ancient Phoenix Clan turned into ashes in an instant.
If it weren't for the Red Moon Lotus's strong original form, they would probably be burned to ashes in an instant.
But she didn't care about the severe pain coming from her body. She got up with difficulty and looked at the ashes in the sky. She could no longer feel Lu Yu's breath, and all the pets disappeared. At
this moment, an indescribable bitterness surged in her heart.
Lu Yu... is dead.
Before he died, he let himself escape!
All intelligent creatures will pursue excellent individuals. It is an instinctive attraction.
From the beginning when his sister said that he could contact the three sisters out of curiosity... to him being seen clearly... to the subsequent rescues...
or perhaps the critical moments, he always carries the last hope.
Chiyue Honglian no longer knows when she developed a crush on him, but she understands...
not every liking requires a response.
In order not to hurt her sister, she is willing to suppress her emotions and just stay away from him.
But... the moment she saw Lu Yu burn to ashes, it was as if something in her heart suddenly broke and
could never be repaired.
At this moment, Chiyue Honglian's self-deception turned into deep regret that kept gnawing at her heart.
"Why... push me away?"
Chiyue Honglian's tears flowed down her cheeks. She clearly had a backup plan arranged by her mother, which was enough to counter the laws of the ancient king.
At the same time, the ancient phoenix clan once again returned from death.
However, this time, their eyes were no longer entangled with the horror brought by the weight of death, but puzzlement...
They raised their heads and looked at the vague figure. The world-shaking Tianhuang Law was entangled in her fingertips. Because she used the remaining power, she fell into a deep sleep.
She stretched out her hand and grabbed the floating Tianhuang Palace, but it attracted fierce resistance, but it was quickly suppressed.
Huang Yun murmured in disbelief: "Impossible..."
The Ancient Phoenix Clan leader responded in a hoarse voice: "Phoenix Lord, why..."
"Why give up your gorgeous wings and abandon us? Silently watching everything."
The Ancient Phoenix Clan leader naturally thought of Lu Yu's guess about the consciousness of the Central Tree, but he never had an answer.
But at this moment, the moment the mist was lifted, it only brought shock.
The Phoenix Lord had actually returned a long time ago, and became the consciousness in the Central Tree, quietly manipulating their deaths.
No wonder... the Central Tree cannot exert its full strength.
How could a soul of life + fire be accommodated by the body of the descendant of the Royal Tree of Death attribute.
It was good enough that they didn't die suddenly because of rejection.
But this made them who were watching silently become clowns.
The figure was silent for a moment when facing the question, and then said: "Phoenix Shadow, the flame of immortality has burned out the life path. Even if I have nirvana several times, I can't come back. Even my body has begun to reject me. Therefore, the only thing that can carry me is..." "
Death." The ancient phoenix patriarch murmured, and the incomplete memory began to gradually return, and it seemed that he understood what the other party wanted to do.
"It seems that you have remembered everything."
At this point, the Phoenix Lord's voice was leisurely and still calm:
"With the Tree of Reincarnation as the foundation and the Mother River as the cemetery, through the billions of deaths of all lives in the Phoenix Nest, a sufficient weight of death will be accumulated.
Use it at the last moment of the Nirvana Dance, and you can take my corpse and sink it perfectly into the underworld without being rejected.
Using the underworld as a coffin and reversing the Nirvana ritual, you can..."
"Promote a new underworld god!"
