Chapter 209 Egg Evolution! The World-Devouring Dragon of the End! The Authority of Reincarnation! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
"Creator Space!"
With a thought, Lu Yu was instantly engulfed by the chaotic currents of air and returned to a chaotic space where there were no concepts of time or space, and all things were in their original state.
Or rather—a thousand-handed worktable!
boom!
Lu Yu transformed into the Thousand-Handed Demon God, and with a casual wave of his arms, he could unleash a chaotic wave that swept across billions of worlds, annihilating everything.
As their strength continues to increase, although there is still a layer of "mosaic" in front of them, their concept of the world and chaos becomes clearer and clearer.
It seems like it could be used to complete one's "ranch"!
"If we were here, even the Mother of Twilight could be manipulated at will!"
A thought flashed through Lu Yu's mind, and then he began to attend to his business.
Make the secret recipe for egg evolution!
After going through countless hardships, we have finally gathered all the materials needed for this guy. He will soon be able to enter his complete form and completely get rid of the state where he is prone to spiritual imbalance if he is not careful!
Subsequently, Lu Yu retrieved three core materials from the material library.
The first one, the [Crimson Hundred-Eyed Dragon King's Body], represents life. It is a legendary dragon born from the red of life, second only to the ancient dragons.
The second [Bone of the Archangel] represents death.
It was a True King-level Skeleton Angel who separated his bones, flesh, and soul when setting up the [Triple Reverse Skeleton Angel Array]. Although his quality had declined somewhat due to reasons such as guiding the Hidden Skeleton Emperor, reincarnation, and the corrosion of long years.
But the concept of death it embodies is enough!
As for the third one...
【The Body of the Mother of Twilight (Six-Star Mid-Tier): Born from the glory of the Mother of Twilight, created at the moment of day and night, possessing the power of both twilight and shadow, representing the cycle of day and night and the balance of rules, composed of the Daughter of Twilight and the Daughter of Eternal Darkness, thus existing in a state of two sides of the same coin.
At dusk, the power of the Dusk Maiden is amplified, bringing an end to all things; when night falls, the Eternal Darkness Maiden is strengthened, bringing infinite peace.
When both exist simultaneously, a special ecological domain—the Lesser Twilight—can be opened, greatly amplifying one's own power. All life within it will either be transformed into monsters of the twilight and shadow attributes, or face their end.
Due to the long sealing and the tearing by the Crimson Hundred-Eyed Dragon King, its quality has declined somewhat. Making it into a skill concoction can grant the legendary domain skill - Little Twilight Sky, the range of which depends on one's own strength.
It can also be used as an ingredient in evolutionary secret food, which can enhance the essence of twilight and shadow. Forcing other attribute pets to use it can easily corrupt them.
"Thankfully, those two didn't completely merge. Once [Minor Twilight Heaven] is activated, even the Crimson Spear would be instantly crushed. The Dragon King was only able to defeat her back then because of a combination of cheat codes and luck!"
Lu Yu was amazed and gained a deeper understanding of the danger of this battle to kill the gods.
If it weren't for the forbidden power that gave them a sliver of hope, they wouldn't have had a single chance of winning!
Unfortunately, it's just a piece of material in Lu Yu's hands now!
And it is also the most important material for building balance!
As a living weapon, the Egg is made of materials that contain the ultimate secret that even the Mother of Twilight covets. However, due to the Dragonhawk's insufficient forging technology, it is inherently deficient and its spirituality is in an unbalanced state.
If it weren't for Lu Yu possessing forbidden power and using the food buff to feed it, and the rats using the power of ghosts to nurture it, Egg might not have developed full intelligence yet, only having an endless desire to devour, becoming a mere killing weapon!
Even now, it can only transform into a dragon with a single attribute and cannot unleash its full power!
But we'll be able to solve this problem soon!
As for the [Mechanical Nation Gear], a top-tier material that has a suppressive effect on technological civilization, Lu Yu did not take it out.
It's not that it can't be balanced, but rather that the secret food isn't necessarily better the more varied it is; a perfect combination is needed to maximize the pet's potential.
He also had some ideas about its uses.
The same principle applies to the 【Egg of Cause and Effect】!
Let's begin!
Lu Yu murmured softly, then summoned the Primal Furnace.
As the secret food was continuously made, the flames in the Primal Forge shone ever brighter, and even a single wisp falling into the mortal world would ignite a world-destroying fire.
Lu Yu manipulated the Thousand-Handed Demon God, first throwing the enormous [Crimson Hundred-Eyed Dragon King Body] into the Primordial Furnace, and then manipulated the Primordial Fire to temper the impurities and resentment within it little by little, refining the essence of the Crimson Life!
If this process were carried out outside the body, the refinement of the essence would inevitably be perceived by the Crimson of Life, bringing calamity. At best, it would cause the flesh and blood to rot; at worst, it would cause the body to become deformed!
However, in the chaotic space, Lu Yu is the sole ruler!
After refining it into a deep red ball of light, Lu Yu added the second material—[Bone of the Skeleton Angel].
The ancient jade angel skeleton fell into the furnace, instantly melted, and merged into the ball of light.
hum!
The moment the forces of life and death approached each other, a violent impact was triggered. They collided repeatedly, each seemingly trying to destroy the other, and launched a frenzied attack.
After all, the power of life and death is more incompatible than water, fire, sun and moon, and even involves the forbidden secret of the Tree of Death's shattering!
"Quiet!"
Lu Yu manipulated the Thousand-Handed Demon God to forcefully suppress them, but they were still clearly distinct, looking like a red and black tai chi symbol. However, due to the excessive life force, the shape appeared slightly distorted.
Then it was the turn of the Twilight materials. The remaining wills of the Twilight Maiden and the Eternal Darkness Maiden still tried to resist, but were instantly annihilated by the chaotic energy. Then, like peeling silk from a cocoon, they were transformed into thousands of threads, which were added to the material little by little.
This thing is too high-level; throwing it in directly will reverse the priorities!
As dusk falls, it gradually transforms life into the power of death, slowly pulling the originally deformed circle back into balance!
After much effort, the power of death and the crimson of life finally managed to fuse together, forming a large, spherical fruit.
Its appearance is half black and half red, with a faint twilight glow in the middle.
It looks like a top-quality work of art!
The relevant information was quickly presented to Lu Yu.
The ultimate fruit of life and death.
[Description: A special fruit born from the Lord of the Gate using the Crimson Hundred-Eyed Dragon King as a base, and incorporating the bones of the Skeleton Angel and the remains of the Twilight God's incarnation as materials. It contains the power of the cycle of life and death.]
It is recommended that pets with attributes related to Life, Death, Skeleton, or Twilight consume this product; other attributes may easily cause mutations.
[Special Effect: Upgrade any skill to Legendary rank using the Key of Truth.]
Alternatively, you can upgrade an existing Legendary skill once, such as upgrading a "Legendary Beginner" skill to a "Legendary Intermediate" skill, which is a True Upgrade.
[Rating: Six stars, perfect]
"The highest level of evaluation is indeed difficult, but after the star rating is increased, there is another direction for strengthening. It is possible to sublimate the legendary skills through the [Power of Truth], which is a good thing."
Lu Yu was amazed but not disappointed. After all, achieving a six-star rating this time was already considered a clever trick using top-quality materials!
Without sufficient Twilight Power as a lubricant, the fusion process of Life and Death Power will encounter many problems. Although the star rating will still be high, the quality will definitely drop to the excellent level, which will reduce the bonus brought by the [Lord of the Gate] talent by more than half.
Moreover, legendary skills represent the pinnacle of mortal abilities, and their power increases dramatically with each subsequent upgrade, even by a small increment!
As for whether it's upgrading a single legendary skill or acquiring multiple legendary skills, we'll have to wait until the egg's evolution is complete and then review the relevant information.
After all, Lu Yu has never chosen any of the fixed skills on Egg!
So he exited Creator Mode, the chaotic energy dissipated, and he returned to the living room.
Egg and Mouse were still playing around.
It's just a case of losing an egg and getting annoyed by a mouse!
"hateful!"
Just as the mouse was about to completely lose its temper and use its inflating ability to bounce off the egg, Lu Yu's voice suddenly rang out:
"Egg, come here for a second!"
"Gurgle!"
Egg, who was happily eating potato chips in front of the mouse, immediately jumped up after hearing Lu Yu's call. Before the mouse could catch its breath, it was pressed down heavily again and almost turned into a piece of mouse chips, which would have to go to the underworld early.
It got up, looked at the happy way Egg was circling around Lu Yu, and said indignantly:
"Hmph! You sycophantic, bullying lackey!"
It was clearly raised by it, yet it obeys Xiu Ren's every word. What an ingrate... a complete idiot!
They haven't evolved yet; I can't even imagine what they'll be like once they've fully evolved!
Lu Yu ignored the resentful rat and then took out the [Fruit of Endless Life and Death].
"Gurgle, gurgle!"
Egg's clear eyes, tinged with a hint of foolishness, instantly fixed on the food. An indescribable hunger surged within it, driving it to swallow the thing, hoping to make up for some deficiency in its body!
However, just as it was about to open its mouth, Lu Yu pressed its head down, his clear eyes filled with confusion.
"Wait a minute, I almost forgot something important!"
Lu Yu suddenly thought of something and turned to the little spider, saying:
"Let's go to the void; it'll be troublesome if the egg's evolution causes too much of a commotion!"
Although it's uncertain how big the egg will get after it goes inside, it will definitely burst the house and cause a huge financial loss!
The kind of poverty that deserves applause!
In addition, the city has just experienced a major battle and is on high alert, so even the slightest disturbance could easily attract a large number of powerful allies.
"Eek!"
The little spider nodded, and with a wave of its fair little hand, it tore open a rift in the void.
Lu Yu led them inside!
"Chirp!"
The white fox stood atop the tower, its eyes fixed on the moon, its gaze fixed on the moon even as it sensed intense spatial fluctuations.
Hmm... the starry sky and the moon are both quite beautiful!
In the void,
Lu Yu sat atop the enormous Void Mother Nest and tossed the Evolutionary Secret Food in his hand to Egg.
The latter swallowed it eagerly, like Pigsy eating ginseng fruit, still without tasting any flavor.
"Guji?" Egg was a little confused. Why hadn't it changed at all? Just as it was about to speak, a deep red light suddenly surrounded it and engulfed its entire body.
"roar!"
A deafening dragon roar resounded, instantly shattering numerous nearby floating rocks into dust.
A vast power of evolution surged forth, and the dragon's might spread for dozens of miles!
If this were to happen outside the city, it would be enough to trigger a new wave of panic in Da Yuan City!
But in the vast void, it is just a drop in the ocean; there may not even be any life within a range of hundreds or thousands of kilometers!
However, just to be on the safe side, Lu Yu still asked the rat to help shield his aura to prevent it from being detected by some powerful creatures.
"Hmph! When it really matters, we still have to ask Mouse for help!" Mouse said arrogantly, but his body was obediently covered by several layers of dark shadows.
Then... it felt the constant impact of the pressure emanating from the egg, like a wave being pushed up on the beach!
I'm so angry!
As for the little spider, it has prepared its silk and will make a new toy for Egg later!
The toys it has accumulated are enough to fill an entire wall, with all sorts of shapes and sizes, but the owner's toys are the most numerous!
Lu Yu waited for almost an hour before the light of evolution gradually faded. However, the first thing they saw shocked them.
"That's...so awesome!"
What appeared before everyone was a dragon beast that was a full seven meters long!
Its head was ferocious and majestic, with closed eyes and winding, forked dark gold dragon horns growing on both sides. With each breath, it exhaled dark purple dragon breath, which landed on the slowly drifting rocks.
There was no corrosion, no destruction; it simply vanished into nothingness!
The enormous dragon wings spread out, reaching a full ten meters in length. They were made of skeletons, with crimson flesh and blood, and twilight as the wing membrane. Golden bone spikes extended from the tips, and black and gold dragon scales covered them.
Its tail, covered with barbed scales, drooped to the ground, capable of easily tearing apart anything. Its belly was a dark nebula, like a blind dragon opening its abyssal maw, surging with a desire to devour everything.
However, it was soon covered and concealed by a large number of deep red scales, as if it were wearing a suit of armor, making it look even more majestic.
These dragon scales are surrounded by a black and red halo, which connects together, as if outlining a brilliant dragon civilization.
But upon closer inspection, one will discover that what exists inside that ball of light is not actually a pattern, but rather a series of dark golden dragon eyes, covering the dragon's wings, limbs, and entire body.
When it opens, it has a hundred eyes; when it closes, it reveals mysterious cloud patterns!
At this moment, they kept opening and closing, turning to observe all directions, as if recording all the rules of this world.
But the greed and tyranny in his eyes were gone, replaced by cold indifference, adding a touch of noble antiquity.
At this moment, its bestial nature faded, and it gained a touch of divinity!
"That's so cool!"
The mouse's eyes revealed envy; it was even more pretentious than the mouse sitting on the Soul Cloud in its complete form with the Flame Wheel!
"roar!"
The eyes on the egg-shaped dragon's head opened, revealing a pair of dark purple vertical pupils. The next moment...
boom!
Its hundreds of eyes opened, all staring at Lu Yu before it, locking onto all directions. It raised its dragon claws and charged forward swiftly, its terrifying dragon might sweeping in like a tsunami, and then…
She leaned her head over and gently rubbed her head against Lu Yu's hand!
"roar……"
"Okay, okay, I know you're happy!"
Lu Yu smiled and patted its head, knowing that the dragon beast in front of him was still that egg, and would never change.
The mouse breathed a sigh of relief and complained, "That scared me to death! I thought this guy was going through puberty, and I almost pulled out my... big whip to discipline him!"
However, Egg's new appearance combines violence, holiness, chaos and other styles, and every move it makes exudes a suffocating dragon's might!
It has surpassed pureblood dragons and reached a new level!
The mouse felt both envious and somewhat gratified.
It feels like my own child has grown up. Luckily, I took him in as a bodyguard in advance. I can beat up anyone who dares to disobey me!
They should...be obedient, right?
"Eek!"
Spider-Man was also very happy. A new doll for Egg had already been made in the Void Chest. It was fierce yet cute, and super big. It was added to the family doll collection.
Like a great bodyguard, protecting everyone!
While petting the dragon, Lu Yu activated his Eye of Truth to check Egg's new data:
【The Hundred-Eyed World-Devouring Dragon (Living Weapon)】
[Description: A living weapon-type pet that evolved after consuming the evolutionary secret food - "Fruit of Life and Death". It possesses three powers: Twilight, Skeleton, and Crimson of Life, and has an endless stomach that can eat and digest all matter.]
It can unleash its insatiable appetite, devouring all living beings until its demise; its bloodline level is that of a legendary dragon.
[Skill]: Final Dragon Breath (High-level Super-tier, a dragon breath born from the fusion of the Crimson of Life, bones, and the power of Twilight's End, capable of annihilating all life.)
Crimson Mark (Top-tier Super-tier: Possessing a trace of the Crimson Origin of Life, you will master the use of the Crimson Light of Life and can bestow Crimson Marks of Life, strengthening their bloodline growth, transforming flesh and blood, extending lifespan, and other effects. In return, you can control their life and death.)
Skeleton Mastery (High-level Super-tier: Can control the power of skeletons, possessing skills such as manipulating bone walls and bone shields, and can easily condense large amounts of skeletons for one's own use.)
Twilight Insect Feast (High-level Super-tier: You will gain the ability to create Twilight Insects, giving birth to entirely new Twilight Insects unique to you. Through them, you can master, utilize, and even steal the power of Twilight.)
Crimson World (Legendary Tier 1): Possessing the power of the Crimson Origin of Life and the power of the Lesser Twilight Sky, you can erode the world with the Crimson Light, twisting it into a domain of your own to enhance your strength.
Those beings corrupted and transformed by the power of crimson become "Red Pillars," which can induce a primitive, savage state, reducing their intelligence and causing them to fight each other.
It can also absorb life force to strengthen itself and transform it into self-healing power.
At its peak, it can erode the rules of a small world and replace its will, depending on one's own strength.
Final Beam (Elementary Super-Tier: All the eyes on the body can release a final beam, containing terrifying destructive power.)
Unending Thirst (Top-tier Super-Tier: As a world-devouring dragon, your desire to devour is inexhaustible. You also possess a unique black hole stomach with digestive abilities even more terrifying than those of an ancient dragon. Without being killed by the backlash, you can devour all matter and strengthen your physique!)
Wheel of Life and Death (Top-tier, super-grade: As long as one is not truly dead, it can convert the death energy of an enemy or oneself into life energy, or life energy into death energy. Each use requires more than 24 hours of rest.)
[Potential: Mid-sized giant]
Seven super-tiers, one legend!
Moreover, most of the super-level skills are high-level super-level, each one extremely powerful and luxurious!
What's even more terrifying is that once Egg arrives at adulthood, it can become a giant, and one of the best among them!
Even top-tier pure-blooded dragons can't compare to this, since after they reach adulthood, they are at most top-tier monarchs, with a higher probability of becoming giants!
A difference of just one level can make all the difference!
The latter has stepped onto the ladder of eternity!
However, Lu Yu was still somewhat dissatisfied, not with the strength, but with the last skill.
Although the [Wheel of Life and Death] is very powerful and can be used to convert life force to save lives in critical moments, it is still far from being a true cycle of reincarnation!
No wonder it's called the fruit of life and death, not the fruit of reincarnation!
As for the reason... Lu Yu had a rough idea.
The concept of death is incomplete!
It's probably because the Skeleton Angels and even the Skeleton Emperors themselves don't have much authority over death; they have more power over rebirth and the peace of the dead.
The true concept of death is held by the Seven Great Emperor Trees!
Before reaching the hot spring town, Lu Yu wasn't in a hurry and could collect the items slowly.
But now we know that the Fallen Ghost Tree in the Abyss Plane has been secretly trying to devour the other descendants of the Royal Tree, and even fused with a descendant of the Netherworld Royal Tree a hundred years ago!
I don't know how far things have progressed!
Therefore, Lu Yu must secure this path in advance!
Whether you want to advance further or avoid being noticed by certain entities, there is only one way: rely on your own efforts...
"Give me some more—no, I mean, a higher level of truth!"
With a thought, Lu Yu caused the Key of Truth to shine brightly, and endless truth descended upon Egg, beginning to enhance the essence of its skills.
"roar!"
Egg seemed to sense something, and suddenly raised its head, letting out a dragon roar. A black and red halo appeared on its back, reflecting the phantom of the Misty City.
However, compared to before, it is more realistic and complete, and a huge black hole has appeared in the center, in which the aura of life and death circulates, staining the entire city gray, making it even more mysterious.
This time, it wasn't a simple life-or-death transformation like before, but a deeper fusion, changing from black and red to a gray halo.
The [Wheel of Life and Death] skill that Lu Yu saw had disappeared, and had been replaced by a completely new skill.
【City of Reincarnation (Prototype): Legendary Initial Stage. You have successfully fused the power of life and death, breaking through unknown limitations. Under the protection of truth, you have not attracted the attention of any being and are always on the right path.
It also devoured the phantom of the Holy City, turning it from illusion into reality, and gave birth to the prototype of a City of Reincarnation, which was carried by the Hundred-Eyed World-Devouring Dragon and grew together.
After being protected by the City of Reincarnation, you will be immune to all instant-death skills. You can send a large number of souls into it to be reborn, absorb the power of reincarnation, improve and strengthen the City of Reincarnation, summon phantom defenses, and transform to the extreme. There is a chance to advance to the "Kingdom of Reincarnation".
Simultaneously, the ability to convert life force and death energy is limited to eight hours. One can condense a wisp of reincarnation energy over twelve hours, briefly granting oneself the concept of "immortality" for one second. The maximum condensation limit for reincarnation energy is 1, and this amount increases with proficiency and strength.
Originally, Egg's attributes were a mixture of four attributes: Dragon, Twilight, Skeleton, and Life. But now, only Dragon and Reincarnation remain. It has transformed from a mid-level giant potential into a high-level giant!
This time, it is the dragon carrying the burden of reincarnation!
"As expected, the absolute correctness of the Key of Truth can break through some unknown barriers!"
Lu Yu decisively solidified it, but this skill was rather special. There was only one prototype of the City of Reincarnation, so it could only be shared with Egg!
He had no objection to this, after all, he didn't want to carry the whole city on his back all day, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his face!
Being immune to instant-death skills effectively blocks the last path for lucky players, so there's no need to worry about some cannon fodder characters getting lucky and triggering the skill.
It might be unlikely for others, but for Lu Yu, who possesses the forbidden curse mark...
I've never had any expectations of my luck!
The concept of "invincibility" for one second in the City of Reincarnation may seem short, but it is actually equivalent to an invincible skill!
It perfectly fills the sense of security that Lu Yu lost after losing the Reincarnation Fruit, becoming one of his trump cards!
Having done all this, Lu Yu looked into the deep void.
"It's about time..."
"Leaving Oobuchi City!"
