Chapter 269: The Eerie Giant Eyeball!

~7 min read 1,342 words

"You had best not run around, otherwise you will die a miserable death!"

The crowd looked up.

They saw a blood-red giant eyeball rolling around, with hideous, raised blood vessels on it that looked just like human veins.

Everyone felt a booming explosion in their heads; their minds were filled with mountains of corpses and seas of blood, with countless skulls dancing in the sky.

At the same time, waves of shrill roars seemed to tear their heads apart, as if their souls were about to shatter.

From the outside, everyone was clutching their heads, in extreme pain.

"Come back!"

A loud shout pulled them back from the illusion, and Lu Tianyu's voice rang out: "Do not look up, close your eyes."

"Do not be afraid, I am still here. I will definitely be able to lead you out of here, believe me!"

"Stand in your positions and do not move, and you will be safe."

Upon hearing this, everyone closed their eyes one after another.

However, they were still terrified.

In such a situation, how could they escape?

That giant eyeball's cultivation was unfathomable; it was likely at least at the Great Vehicle Stage, or perhaps even the Tribulation Transcendence Stage.

None of them had even reached the Golden Core stage; in its eyes, they were no different from ants.

Just by meeting its gaze for a moment, their souls had nearly scattered.

They still had ultimate techniques left behind by their elders that they hadn't used yet.

But they knew that such things would be useless.

Once they used their ultimate techniques to anger the giant eyeball, they would only die faster.

Just as Lu Tianyu said, it was better for them to stay put and not move.

"Oh!"

The giant eyeball above let out an "oh," saying, "Kid, you are actually completely unaffected. It seems you possess a treasure for the soul?"

"No, that's not right, your Divine Sense is actually comparable to the Great Vehicle Stage. Good fellow, you are a freak!"

"I am almost reluctant to kill you now."

Lu Tianyu sneered: "If my guess is correct, you are not the mulberry tree you appear to be on the outside; you are a Blood Demon of the Blood Demon race."

"The fact that so many of us are trapped here this time was all arranged by you, wasn't it?"

"Your cultivation is roughly at the Tribulation Transcendence Stage, though for some reason, you are left with only one eye."

The giant eyeball let out another "oh": "Kid, you speak truly. I am indeed not a great mulberry tree; the great mulberry tree was just something I used to deceive you. I am a Blood Demon of the Blood Demon race, and I am at the Tribulation Transcendence Stage."

"I am becoming more and more interested in you. Kid, tell me, what else have you figured out?"

Its giant eyeball rolled around, seemingly very interested in Lu Tianyu.

Lu Tianyu chuckled: "Then listen carefully."

"You are left with only one giant eyeball here and dare not go out because you lack the strength to do so."

"This time, tens of thousands of people from our Guangmu Academy and Changheng Academy entered, and you caused the Yaoshou Senlin beasts here to become demonized and bloodthirsty, to kill all the humans and devour them."

"During this time, you absorb the blood energy of us after we die here, don't you?"

The giant eyeball let out an "oh": "Little fellow, you have deduced it perfectly. That's right, I am the one who made you slaughter each other to devour your blood energy, resentment, and unwillingness."

"Keep talking, I am very happy to listen!"

It was becoming more and more interested in Lu Tianyu.

The others, upon hearing this, suddenly realized the truth.

So that was it.

No wonder they felt this matter was very suspicious; everything was like a giant web covering everything, making it impossible to see clearly.

It turned out the mastermind behind everything was this Tribulation Transcendence Stage cultivator of the Blood Demon race.

However, at this moment, besides fear, they felt nothing but terror.

This giant eyeball was a Tribulation Transcendence Stage cultivator, and a member of the Blood Demon race at that. By continuously absorbing blood energy, its cultivation would gradually recover; even if the several Deans came, they would be powerless!

But they could not understand why Lu Tianyu was so calm at a time like this.

At this moment, deep despair rose in their hearts.

They never thought they would die in such a way.

Lu Tianyu curled his lips: "Although there are thirty thousand of us, the quality of our blood is insufficient. Even if all of us die, our blood and energy are far from enough for you to recover your cultivation realm."

"If my guess is correct, you will sacrifice all the beasts in the Yaoshou Senlin to recover your cultivation."

Speaking of this, he suddenly smiled.

The giant eyeball rolled: "Not bad. The blood of these beasts is already meat on my chopping block; I can take it whenever and wherever I want."

"However, even if I sacrifice them all, it is still not enough. But I am very eager to recover my cultivation and still need blood. Take a guess, where will I get the missing part?"

It stared at Lu Tianyu with great interest.

"Hahaha!"

Lu Tianyu smiled slightly: "That is simple."

"Your main target is not us students and beasts, but those Deans of the Guangmu Academy and Changheng Academy."

"You will not kill us all immediately; you will kill some and keep some to lure the Deans of the Guangmu Academy and Changheng Academy here. Once you trap and kill them, you will achieve your goal."

"If my guess is correct, you should still have some clansmen here, responding to your call, ready to sacrifice themselves at any time."

"Ah? Hahaha!"

The giant eyeball laughed incessantly: "Kid, what you said is absolutely correct. You make me think you are the tapeworm in my stomach."

"Not bad, not bad."

"Kid, I'll give you a chance. How about you become my blood slave?"

Seeing Lu Tianyu not speaking, the Big Eyeball continued to open its mouth: "Not everyone is qualified to be my blood slave; it is your good fortune that I am speaking to you."

"You might not know what a blood slave is, so I will explain it to you."

"A blood slave is my slave; you don't need to stay by my side usually, just kill people and collect Heart Blood for me at regular intervals."

"Being able to be my blood slave is a blessing you cultivated in your previous life; there is only one such opportunity."

The Big Eyeball's voice sounded as if it had become amiable: "You don't need to rush to answer; just like them, you can give me your reply when the hour is up."

"Remember, I am only choosing you alone to be my blood slave."

Saying this, he closed his eyes, giving Lu Tianyu time to think.

Lu Tianyu looked at the shivering crowd with an expressionless face.

Everyone had heard their conversation.

In less than an hour, it would be the time of death for these people.

Although they were not afraid of death, they were still somewhat nervous when it truly arrived.

Lu Tianyu took out the Underworld King Palace: "If you trust my words, come into my Underworld King Palace; if you don't trust me, keep waiting."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone opened their eyes and looked at Lu Tianyu.

"Big Brother, I believe in you!" Lu Wenbin spoke immediately.

Next were Zhang Xiaocui and Liu Qingyan.

Guo Zhuying and Murong Xue also nodded.

The rest of the people followed suit and nodded as well.

They all knew that at this point, they could only trust Lu Tianyu; they had no other choice.

They hoped that this person, who had always been able to create miracles, could create another miracle for them.
