Lu Yin disappeared as well, entering the Astral Source Universe. He saw the fat corpse king charging at him and opening its arms to hug him.
Lu Yin was stunned. What the hell?
He stabbed his dagger at the corpse king's neck.
The corpse king didn't dodge and instead hugged Lu Yin tightly. Lu Yin's dagger smoothly pierced the neck, but no blood flowed out. The dagger had completely sunk in, but it was as if it had been swallowed by something.
At that moment, Lu Yin was wrapped around by the corpse king's arms, and it exerted force.
There was a loud crack as an intense pain shot through his waist. The fat corpse king's strength was unbelievable, and even the Cloud Lice had not been able to completely defend against it. The Cloud Lice could withstand over 900,000 attacks, but the pure strength of the fat corpse king's attack was not something that could be easily blocked by the Cloud Lice.
Lu Yin was in intense pain, but he raised his leg and kneed the corpse king's abdomen before kicking out with Overlaying Stacks.
Although the corpse king was strong, Lu Yin wasn't weak either. He kicked the corpse king back, but the corpse king continued to charge forward.
The scene in front of Lu Yin changed, and he left the Astral Source Universe. The Star Chessboard appeared beneath his feet, and he moved. Just as his body was about to disappear, the corpse king grabbed his arm and forcefully broke through the Plan Secret Art.
Lu Yin's dagger slashed out and tore open the corpse king's neck, but it was still useless. The corpse king's neck seemed to have countless layers of fat that absorbed all of the dagger's power. Wait, absorb?
Lu Yin stared at the corpse king. Could it be in the Profound Creation Realm?
Drunkard's control of star energy had reached the Profound Creation Realm, and a single drop of wine could contain attacks. It could allow the dead bugs to wander around inside until the end of time, making it the most effective counter to the dead bugs in the Sovereign Tournament. It felt similar to how the corpse king had absorbed the dagger's attack.
If Drunkard could absorb attacks with his wine, then this corpse king could also absorb attacks with its accumulated fat.
This corpse king had definitely been a top expert of its generation when it was alive, and its control of star energy had reached the World Realm. Even after breaking through to the Envoy realm, it could still use it in a miraculous manner.
Lu Yin felt that this was troublesome; he was now facing off against Drunkard, who had reached the Envoy realm.
Drunkard was one of the few top experts of his generation who had reached the Envoy realm, and he wasn't easy to deal with. Lu Yin had only faced ordinary Envoys before, and no matter how strong they were, they were still ordinary experts and not absolute geniuses like Drunkard.
The Fat Corpse King's attack didn't have that many tricks. As long as it hugged its opponent tightly, its opponent's attack was useless against it.
Lu Yin retreated again and again, but the fat Corpse King stepped into the Astral Source Universe, and its speed wasn't slow when it reappeared. Lu Yin was suppressed once again.
Che Zhan's fingers twitched. He wanted to make a move, but was it useful?
He also did not know how to deal with the fat Corpse King. If Lu Yin could rely on his secret technique to contend with the sourcebox array, then what about him?
If they went up, they would probably die.
His arm was patted, and his body swayed. He almost lost his footing when the fat Corpse King appeared in front of him again and hugged him.
Lu Yin had never encountered such an attack in his entire life, and he couldn't do anything to it even if he wanted to. Instead, he went through all the items in his cosmic ring to see what he could use.
This wasn't something that could be done with brute force. Either he used his combat strength to break through the Fat Corpse King's attack, or he had to think of another way.
Lu Yin stared at the Corpse King, looking at its neck and the accumulated fat on its body, and his eyes lit up.
Back then, the death bug had tried its best to break out of the wine droplet, but the wine droplet had only been able to trap it. That was because the death bug's power level wasn't enough to break through the Arcane Creation Realm's star energy. What if it could break through?
Would that mean that it wouldn't be trapped by the wine droplet?
The fat was all on the Corpse King's body, and once it was broken through, it would be enough to attack its body.
Lu Yin raised a hand, and an irregular crystal appeared. This was tribulation fire.
Didn't the Corpse King like to absorb attacks?
Then let's absorb the tribulation fire. Lu Yin placed the irregular crystal on the dagger and then charged at the Corpse King. He threw out the dagger and used the Yu Secret Art to pierce the Corpse King's body.
The Corpse King didn't care about this attack at all and allowed the dagger to pierce its body. The tribulation fire surged out and flashed red before disappearing.
Lu Yin waved his hand again, and the dagger appeared along with the irregular crystal. The tribulation fire inside was enough to be used three times, and now, there were only two left.
He raised his head and looked at the Corpse King expectantly. The tribulation fire had been upgraded six times, and it was enough to unleash an attack with a power level of over 700,000. He wondered if it could break through the Corpse King's Arcane Creation Realm defenses.
The Corpse King was stunned for a moment, but then it howled as its body turned red. Finally, flames surged out and swallowed it whole.
In the distance, Marquis Qing Zhu's expression didn't change as he quietly watched the Corpse King turn into ashes.
Even though the Corpse King's loss pained him, he could only comply with the Seven Skygods' orders. As he thought about this, he stared at Lu Yin. This Long Seven had already eliminated two of the Corpse Kings that he valued.
If not for the Seven Skygods' orders, how could it have been so easy?
If you like battle achievements, then I'll give you battle achievements.
In the distance, underground, Mister Guo and the rest watched as the tribulation fire burned and swallowed the Corpse Kings. Their faces were illuminated red; just how many power vessels did this Long Seven have?
Previously, he had used a power vessel to kill all the Corpse Kings. Then, he had used a defensive power vessel and the dagger in his hand. Now, he even had this kind of flame and secret technique. It was a pity that such a person would accompany them in the New World and wait for death.
In the future, he would at least become a half-ancestor.
The flames swallowed the Corpse King and similarly spread to the surroundings.
Underground, everyone's expressions changed. These flames wouldn't spread, right?
Even those terrifying Corpse Kings had been swallowed, so it was even more impossible for them to survive.
Lu Yin took out a Heavenfire Stone and absorbed the flames.
Very quickly, the flames were absorbed into the stone, and everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Their backs were drenched in sweat, both from fear and from the heat.
In the second Corpse King, Lu Yin had single-handedly dealt with two Envoy-level Corpse Kings. These two Corpse Kings were not weak at all.
Lu Yin panted heavily, as the second Corpse King was even easier to deal with than the first. This was not because he was weak, but because he had found a way to deal with it.
A hopeless situation was not necessarily a hopeless situation. As long as he could find a way, it was not impossible to leave.
"Brother Long Seven, it's my turn," Che Zhan said.
Lu Yin turned around and smiled. It was a very infectious smile. "Wait a little longer. I can still do it. Did you forget what I said?"
Che Zhan looked deeply at him, his eyes filled with deep admiration. "Alright, I'll wait."
Underground, everyone looked at Lu Yin with even more admiration. Many of them had expressions of worship, and if they did not die this time, they would definitely repay this kindness.
Outside, the endless Corpse Kings did not continue to attack, as if they were waiting for something.
They could only send out so many Envoy-level Corpse Kings, and they would have to wait if they wanted to send out more experts.
One day later, another Corpse King arrived. It was still an Envoy-level Corpse King, but it was not as strong as the previous ones. Instead, it was much faster. Lu Yin was treated as a target and beaten up for half a day without being able to retaliate. The Corpse King had even used Astral Source to disrupt his star energy, causing Lu Yin's greater teleportation array and the Strategy Secret Art to fail.
Lu Yin had experienced countless battles in his life. Some had been completely crushed, while others had been filled with despair. This battle was one of them. He had no choice but to take out the spear that he'd obtained from Long Tian. He'd tested it in the Time Stop Space, and it was extremely sticky. He hadn't known how to use it before, but now, it seemed to be the perfect time to use it.
There was a thump, and Lu Yin's vision blurred as he was kicked again. Even with the Cloud Lattice Robe's protection, he was still being beaten up, and the vibrations from the robe were unbearable. The Corpse King had stepped into the Astral Source Universe, and so had he. However, he still could not see the Corpse King. Everyone underground could feel the despair.
He spat out a mouthful of blood, and a spear appeared in his hand. He stabbed it into the ground, and the green gel spread from the spear to his feet. It quickly covered an area of a hundred meters before continuing to spread.
There was another thump, and Lu Yin's abdomen was struck by the Corpse King once more. He still could not see the Corpse King's shadow, as it was moving through the void without ever stepping on the ground. Lu Yin took a deep breath and calculated silently.
Thump!
Thump!
Thump!
…
Underground, Che Zhan gritted his teeth and stared fixedly. He was also searching for traces of the Corpse King, and his scalp went numb. Only Long Seven could deal with this Corpse King because he had a defensive power vessel that even an Emissary could not break through. If they had been in his place, the battle would have ended long ago.
Zhou Tang's eyes kept darting around. He could clearly see the Corpse King's movements, but it was useless even if he told Lu Yin. Lu Yin's consciousness could not keep up.
Many people closed their eyes; it was too miserable.
Lu Yin indeed looked miserable. His hair was disheveled, and he was bleeding from his seven orifices. He looked like he was severely injured, but only he knew that he was not injured at all. Even if he had been injured, he would have recovered thanks to the vitality of the Upper Intelligence Pass.
Thump!
Thump!
Thump!
Suddenly, Lu Yin opened his eyes and used his spear to block in front of him. At the same time, the green gel spread out in all directions, and he was struck again by the Corpse King's fist. This time, however, the Corpse King was unable to dodge with its speed. Its wrist was bound by the gel, and at the same time, it spread out in all directions.
Regardless of whether it was a person or anything else, as long as it had intelligence, it would become inertia. The Corpse King was the same; it had beaten Lu Yin for a long time, and it had gradually become inertia. The interval between each attack was about the same, and Lu Yin had calculated this timing to attack. It was just like how he had used the dagger to deal with the first Corpse King.
In a battle, both strength and intelligence were important.
The Corpse King's wrist was bound by the green gel, and it quickly retreated. It could retreat or move with its speed, but it would not be slowed down by much. However, the green gel would also move with it, and it could not be removed. Lu Yin did not need to find the Corpse King; all he needed to do was keep an eye on the green gel.
It was fast, but correspondingly, its defense was not as strong.
Lu Yin held his spear and attacked in a strange manner, following the movements of the green gel. He used his domain to predict the attack in advance, and the spear pierced the Corpse King's thigh. The spear vibrated, and 350 Stacks were applied. The Corpse King growled as half of its thigh was crushed by the spear. Lu Yin took advantage of this opportunity to grab his dagger and slash horizontally.
