Chapter 821 - 177: Bilu
"You’re no match for me. You should understand that everything here is crystal clear," the old man said with a relaxed expression.
No matter if Lu Yu cooperated or not, it had little impact. What truly concerned him was the person who uprooted the Inheritance Tree.
However, it seems that person isn’t here now.
Lu Yu said coldly, "Our gathering place consists of sixty-nine thousand people."
The old man shook his head, "You don’t represent them, you can only represent yourself. Based on my experience, human resistance only goes so far before it stops."
"Even the most ironclad army has moments when morale collapses, it’s unavoidable."
Lu Yu wouldn’t be scared by a few words from the opponent and believed they still had a chance.
Their gathering place was equipped with the latest model W811 laser cannon, although there was only one shot, its power was tremendous. It was placed in the center of the gathering place, and only a few people knew of its existence.
This thing was originally to deal with some unexpectedly strong monsters since some large high-tier monsters could completely destroy a gathering place.
With this thing, the gathering place had certain capabilities.
Lu Yu threw a round black iron ball towards the old man and then shouted, "Attack!"
Intense fighting sounds rang out again from the high wall, and bullets showered towards the old man.
Lu Yu took the lead, wielding the chain saber, he rushed forward head-on at quite a speed, reaching within ten steps of the old man in the blink of an eye.
The black iron ball also instantly exploded with a massive amount of white smoke, obscuring the surroundings. This smoke had a fainting effect; even for the extraordinary, it could render someone weak if their physique was weak.
This was a highly potent mysterious item.
The range of the smoke was quite large, completely covering the old man’s position and obscuring vision.
The scythe in Lu Yu’s hand seemed to come alive, swinging like a serpent, then suddenly struck upwards, as if hitting something invisible, making a crisp sound.
In the collision, the old man’s attack was briefly delayed, allowing someone to take the opportunity to dodge to the side, creating a large pit on the ground beside him.
If this continued, the section of the high wall might be destroyed by the old man.
"You’re really seeking death!" The old man shouted angrily, feeling extremely irritated, not understanding why these people seemed unafraid of death.
"Infinite Bilu!"
His eyes radiated a faint blue light, energy was surging, causing the surrounding environment to change. Large wooden tokens appeared, floating in the sky above the stone wall, each carved with what seemed like a name.
Too many attacked him at once, and he had to be cautious, as a slip might lead to failure.
After all, his physical body wasn’t strong; it was rather weak, so he had to attack with all his might. If there were too many casualties, there would be no other choice.
Lu Yu swung the chain saber at a strange angle towards the old man, easily passing through the defenses, the blade reaching the old man’s face with a chilling coldness, slicing through his clothes.
The old man opened his eyes wide, waving the ruler in his hand in front of his chest, retreating quickly.
The ruler broke under the scythe’s impact, making a crisp sound, ejecting splintered wood, the upper half fell to the ground, rolling into the pit created earlier.
The old man was extremely surprised, "You’ve completed Mortal Transformation?"
Lu Yu smirked, "Yes, so what about the Inheritance Tree; it’s not important at all."
The old man shook his head, looking regretful, "You don’t understand, the higher you climb, the more difficult it becomes, until one day you find yourself stuck."
"Even if you’ve broken through, you’re still no match for me."
With a wave of his hand, the dozen wooden boards in the sky crashed down, reducing those close to him to pulp, causing those attacking from afar with large caliber firearms to scatter in panic.
Lu Yu couldn’t face the attacks from these wooden tokens, blocking the first three but getting knocked away by the fourth, forcing him to retreat.
The old man looked at the cut-off edge of his clothes, feeling a chill, knowing if he hadn’t reacted quickly, he might have been severely injured.
Lu Yu was cunning, pretending to be weak then suddenly unleashing power, nearly catching him off guard, but the result was still in his favor.
Then.
Lu Yu was hit by another massive wooden token, rolling on the ground, almost falling off the high wall, bloodied, clothes torn with various holes.
But it wasn’t over, such injuries weren’t fatal, he could still fight.
The old man saw Lu Yu’s pathetic state and smiled, boasting from a superior position, "How about it? Surrender to our Chenhe, and I’ll spare your life. In the end, even Seventeen will surrender."
"There’s nothing to say, if you’re smart enough, surrender now. I truly don’t like killing; it makes me feel guilty,"
The Falling Leaves Gathering Place was mostly defeated; a strong extraordinary could easily destroy a small gathering place, using certain methods it becomes even easier.
Their power levels had a qualitative gap.
However.
Lu Yu believed there was still a slim chance, and someone had already gone to activate the W811, a single shot opportunity; if they could hit the old man, they might win.
"Not talking? If you won’t talk, I’ll kill you; keeping you is a risk. What a pity, you could’ve lived well."
The old man said with a smile, remaining cautious, knowing Lu Yu’s current strength could threaten him, preparing to kill him.
Lu Yu suddenly raised his head, revealing a grim smile, "Look behind me, what do you see?"
A silvery chain unknownly tied his foot together with the old man.
"You madman!"
The old man widened his eyes, sensing a threat. He saw a blue light shooting towards him from the other side of the gathering place, wanted to dodge but was momentarily restrained by Lu Yu, having to take the hit.
"Eight Directions Clear Wind!"
The shooting laser didn’t deviate, such power was unaffected.
The top of the high wall exploded, the smoke engulfed the surroundings, the entire section of the high wall collapsed under the huge impact, exposing the rebar, breaking under the immense pressure.
At the same time.
Yi Xiaotian saw the explosion smoke, and with blade in hand charged in, knowing this was the chance, the opportunity to kill the monstrous old man.
The old man was hit directly by the laser, his weak body severely injured, losing an arm, with a large hole on the left side of his chest.
Then, a person wielding a blade charged at him through the smoke, showing a malicious expression:
"Die!"
Yi Xiaotian was hit from the side by a wooden token fragment while running, the sharp wood piercing his flesh, through his body.
"All must die, none should survive," the old man stood up, shouting angrily, the pain making him irritated, losing his former demeanor.
A crisp sound echoed from within the smoke.
A blade with a chain sliced at him diagonally from the front.
But the chain saber’s power was far weaker than before, being flicked away by the old man’s single wave.
At this moment.
Lu Yu leaned against the ruins, clutching the chain, motionless, staring faintly at the old man in the smoke, smiling.
"Why are you smiling? You’re about to die," the old man said coldly, waving his hand to control the wooden tokens from the sky to smash Lu Yu.
But the tokens just moved slightly and stopped.
The old man’s body froze, looking down, seeing a silvery wire pierced through his chest, the flesh touched by the wire turning black.
Yi Xiaotian was pinned under a wooden token, holding the other end of the wire. He barely expected it to work:
"Old man, dying by my hands, you should steal some joy."
