Chapter 91
91 Devouring Earth-Attribute’s True Energy, Fusing S-class Skill: Sea of Lava!
At this point, Qin Yong slew his way out of the melee and stood beside Lu Yu. He looked at Hong Shaling and said confidently, “Captain Lu, there’s no need for you to take action against such a small fry. I’ll slay her.”
He was an Advance Martial Master, so he was more than capable of dealing with an Intermediate Martial Master.
Nonetheless, Lu Yu reminded him, “Be careful. This woman might not be as simple as she looks.”
It was strange that a mere Intermediate Martial Master dared to face Lu Yu directly.
Qin Yong nodded and charged towards Hong Shaling. It was time to do something for Captain Lu.
Soon, Qin Yong’s attacks followed like a raging storm. As expected, Hong Shaling only had the strength to parry them and kept retreating to the rear.
Just as Qin Yong’s attack was about to lock onto her throat, Hong Shaling suddenly turned into a shadow and dodged the attack.
B-class Skill: Icy Shadow!
This was a skill similar to the functions of Lu Yu’s Shadowstep. In terms of movement technique and speed, it had a huge advantage.
After evading the attack, Hong Shaling growled,”You are only taking advantage of the fact that you are older than me, and have a higher level of training than me.”
Qin Yong said, “If you’re inferior to others, you’re inferior. Stop finding excuses here. I was born decades earlier than you. It only takes one stroke to cut you down.”
Hong Shaling’s face was twisted with anger, but she didn’t slow down at all. The other Martial Masters of the Distant North Dojo also began moving swiftly like her.
Suddenly, a powerful aura erupted, startling even Lu Yu.
Under the foundation of the Distant North Dojo’s building, a large stream of air surged out and condensed into a pillar of energy. The moment it intertwined, it transformed into a vigorous health vitality force that exploded violently.
Lu Yu recognized this stream of air. It was the convergence of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
However, there was not much spiritual energy that existed naturally in the atmosphere of the Blue Star Continent. Absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to cultivate was painfully slow.
Unbeknownst to many, under the foundation of the Distant North Dojo’s building, there was a rich source of spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It was way beyond his expectations. What was even more unexpected was that this surging spiritual energy of heaven and earth was transformed into health vitality through some medium to continuously replenish Hong Shaling’s body.
However, Lu Yu, who had the Gluttony Talent, was able to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth faster and more efficiently than Hong Shaling!
“What!”
Seeing the flow of true energy underground, the onlookers got a big shock.
Initially, the true energy was flowing endlessly towards Hong Shaling, but when Lu Yu activated his skill, this natural flow of true energy was intercepted from the middle and turned into a small stream that flowed towards Lu Yu. Moreover, this small stream gradually broadened and turned into a raging river!
“Damn it!”
Hong Shaling’s strength soared, instantly reaching the level of a Great Martial Master, and it was still rising.
“Curse of Earth Seal!”
As soon as she finished speaking, an earth-yellow curse insignia materialized and sent Qin Yong flying. Immediately afterwards, a huge rock weighing tens of thousands of kilograms smashed towards Qin Yong.
Lu Yu directly shattered the huge stone with a single slash. He looked at the endless stream of true energy flowing towards Hong Shaling, replenishing her power. A look of surprise flashed across his face.
“Lu Yu, my current strength is already comparable to an Intermediate Great Martial Master. Moreover, I’m still replenishing my strength endlessly.”
“Today, you will die without a grave!”
Hong Shaling screamed and manipulated her replenished vitality to transform into strength. It turned into earth-yellow spikes that shot over collectively.
Red Lotus Battle Energy!
A ball of Red Lotus True Fire enveloped Lu Yu’s entire body then spread out, turning into a red lotus flower that decimated all the earth-yellow spikes.
Thereafter, the flames of the Red Lotus True Fire attached to the Dragon Blood Battle Saber. Combined with the 8-directional Cleave, it slashed out a wave of Red Lotus saber force, slicing off one of Hong Shaling’s arms.
This overwhelming strength shocked everyone watching on site!
Yan Hong was even more shocked. His narrowed eyes contained a trace of fear.
Hong Shaling, whose health vitality was constantly being replenished, was already comparable to an Intermediate Martial Master in terms of capability. In fact, she was far superior to other Intermediate Martial Masters of the same level. Moreover, her strength was still increasing, yet Lu Yu could still suppress her.
It should be remembered that before going into the blood-sucking wasteland, Lu Yu was only a Great Martial Master, while Hong Shaling now possessed the strength equivalent to more than ten Intermediate Martial Masters combined. Yet she was still no match for Lu Yu.
This Lu Yu’s growth rate was too fast, making Yan Hong fearful of him.
Hong Shaling, who had lost an arm, became even more ferocious. She opened her mouth and sucked in a large amount of health vitality. Her body quickly expanded, as if she had been soaking in water for many days. Now, her strength temporarily rose to the level of an Advance Great Martial Master!
“Lu Yu, I am now an Advance Great Martial Master. What do you have to compare with me?”
Hong Shaling then shrieked, “Boulder Puppets!”
In order to avenge the loss of her arm, she deployed her skills.
The health vitality that had gathered quickly dispersed and fused into the ground. Then, one after another, boulder puppets formed from rocks exploded upwards from the ground and charged at Lu Yu from all directions.
Red Lotus Battle Energy!
Spring Surge!
Lu Yu deployed two skills at the same time. On one side, red lotus flames surged and roasted the air, and on the other side, a flood of water spurted out and inundated the ground.
The boulder puppets were drowned. Just as they were struggling to escape, balls of flaming meteors rained down on them and turned them into lava.
[Ding! Detected that host has consumed a large amount of Earth-attribute Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth!]
[Earth-attribute True Energy obtained!]
[Congratulations to the host for fusing water, fire, and earth-attribute skills. You have obtained a new skill: Sea of Lava!]
[Sea of Lava]
[Level: S-class]
[Introduction: A new skill born from the combination of heaven and earth and Spring Surge. It can control the power of lava and smelt everything. Currently, it can last for three minutes. After deploying it, it cannot be used for an hour (duration of use can be increased).]
Lu Yu was stunned for a moment. This was the first time he had seen a skill born in such a way. Under such coincidental circumstances, when two skills were used together, a new skill would be born.
The lava swept towards Hong Shaling like a catastrophe destroying the world. It carried a terrifying power that made the other warriors in Lunan City tremble in fear.
“What a terrifying scene!”
“Why do I feel like a volcano has erupted before my eyes?”
A cultivator was so frightened that he kept retreating, mumbling incoherently.
Hong Shaling only had time to let out a scream before she was swallowed up and turned into a pile of ashes.
“You bastard!”
Yi Han’s eyes were bloodshot and he was extremely angry. However, when he heard the wretched scream, he turned around and was shocked by what he saw.
In the battle up until now, the cultivators of the Distant North Dojo had been completely crushed by the members of the Central Dojo. Only then did he realize that the members of the Central Dojo were all Martial Masters.
As for Qin Yong, he was an Advance Martial Master. Although Song Yu did not join in the battle, the health vitality and aura she emitted also stunned him.
That was a Great Martial Master!
With a Great Martial Master overseeing everything, and an even more ferocious Lu Yu slaying his way through all directions, when had this newly established Central Dojo become so powerful?
“What the hell?”
“It’s not just Lu Yu who is rampaging like he’s gone berserk. Even the people he brought are also all Martial Masters and above. There is even a Great Martial Master present.”
The cultivators watching the battle also discovered this scene and were dumbfounded. They had thought that it was the other three dojos challenging the Distant North Dojo, judging by the spectacle.
“When did Lu Yu gather such a group of strong experts?”
As the people from the West Universe Dojo, the East End Dojo and the Southern Star Dojo watched the scene unfold, color drained from their faces.
Yan Hong’s expression became increasingly clouded. It seemed that Lu Yu’s wings had gradually become fuller and stronger, ready to take flight any time. At that point, he would probably become a headache for Yan Hong.
Jiang Yunhu gave his evaluation, his eyes flashing with a malicious light. “This Lu Yu must not be allowed to live!”
Since he was an enemy and a talented one at that, he must be eliminated at all costs.
However, now was not the time to make a move.
With his Junior Grand Master capability, he could no doubt suppress Lu Yu, but he might not be able to kill him outright. He had to find an opportunity to kill him in one stroke.
