Chapter 346: Ancient-Modern Puppet Master vs. Bait Monarch (Revised)

"This is impossible!"

"Thousand-Eyed Whale? Blood Moon Ray? The power of these two objects in the Mist Sea can barely wrestle with legendary-level existences; how could they be pulled up by a human?"

"If a human uses these three giant objects to exchange for our three tribes' top-tier immortality medicine, wouldn't they be able to molt into a long-lived species?"

"Rules are rules, we should still give it to them; after all, they are human, they can't bear the side effects."

"Best if they eat themselves to death."

……

On the bronze square, there was restlessness.

The clansmen of the three long-lived species all looked at Li Yu with strange and unkind gazes, and each of their faces didn't look good, as if they had eaten shit.

Their three tribes were all long-lived, so naturally, they had many fishing enthusiasts.

And these three giant objects, the Demon Lantern Angler, Thousand-Eyed Whale, and Blood Moon Ray, were very famous on the Demon Boat; usually, if any clansman caught one, they wouldn't return home for a short time, but would drag these giant objects around the Demon Boat to show off.

But at this very moment!

Standing in front of those three giant objects was the race they hated the most: humans.

That figure, which looked tiny by comparison, was incomparably dazzling.

Yet according to the rules, their three tribes had to hand over the incomparably precious top-tier immortality medicine within their tribes to this human.

The three major priests, Molting Daoist, Lady Shadow, and Venerable Snail, stepped forward together.

Each exchanged a portion of immortality medicine to Li Yu.

The first two only gave medicine and didn't mention any other information.

Venerable Snail seemed to be an honest person, and while giving the medicine, he also opened his mouth:

"This Star Plasma was bestowed by the Great Star God, and almost any creature can increase their lifespan significantly after consuming it."

"But the cost is not small; when consuming it, one must endure the divine test of the Star God, and the degree of endurance determines the length of the lifespan increase."

"Another thing is that in terms of form, there may be some mutations."

"If you haven't prepared to turn into the appearance of other races, I suggest you don't eat it."

"Hmm, by the way, how did you catch these three giant objects?"

Speaking to the end, this honest person also revealed his true colors, forcibly restraining his hatred for humans, showing a friendly smile, and then asking Li Yu for fishing techniques.

Clearly, this guy was also an angler.

Li Yu's mood at this time was very pleasant.

Three portions of top-tier immortality medicine!

Obtained just like that.

Just this harvest alone was worth the trip.

One must know that Li Yu previously paid a not-so-small price to gather the top-tier immortality medicine needed for promotion.

Of course, although the three tribes all considered their own immortality medicine to be top-tier.

In reality, it couldn't be counted as such; at least none of them were as good as the "Eternal Toad Ganoderma" and "Golden Cicada Molt" that Li Yu had consumed before.

However, it was already much better than those basic immortality medicines.

For the current Li Yu, it was very important.

"I am not lightly injured now, and I still have to go back to face Zuo Cikui's covetousness."

"Although I am already a 'Bait Monarch', one must be careful; even if I have an eighty percent chance of killing Zuo Cikui, there is still a twenty percent possibility of overturning."

"These immortality medicines can just eliminate the remaining two possibilities."

"Once I swallow them all, ripen all the divine organs in my body, and become a perfect sequence four, everything will be worry-free."

"Sure enough, to get opportunities and benefits, one must wander outside; sitting in the house won't bring any harvest."

As thoughts moved, Li Yu smiled and put away the three portions of immortality medicine.

Then, he first gave Venerable Snail an unexpected answer:

"Very simple, I'm lucky."

"Cast the rod and you'll hit!"

"After that, I only need to ask for help; there are many seniors above the Mist Sea who are willing to lend a hand, such as a powerful individual of the Secret Master tribe called 【Blue Ring Daoist】."

"It was they who took action and helped me pull up all these big fish."

"In other words, I actually picked up so many giant objects for nothing."

"I don't like eating fish, so I just happened to exchange them for immortality medicine."

"By the way, is your stock enough?"

Li Yu was clearly doing it on purpose; his words and tone caused a critical hit to every member of the three Demon Boat tribes present.

And even stronger stimulation was to come.

"Is the stock enough?"

"What does this mean?"

Just as the three priests were thinking this subconsciously.

The next moment, the bronze square began to tremble continuously.

They saw Li Yu waving his hands continuously, and one giant object after another was thrown out.

A rough count, there were six more super big fish.

The Demon Boat Station was almost filled.

This time it wasn't just the three Demon Boat tribes; the divine chosen kin and race representatives who had all returned to deliver tasks also showed shock because of this.

Such as Joseph, Yellow Seal, Child of Taboo... and so on.

Each had completed some important tasks and conducted some transactions with the three Demon Boat tribes, and both sides had gained quite a bit.

But from the scene, they were all completely crushed by Li Yu.

What is this?

Innate Fishing Saint Body?

Among the crowd of distinguished guests, there were a few who knew about the existence of the Mist Sea, which made them even more horrified.

And the three priests finally understood why Li Yu asked about the stock of immortality medicine.

It turned out to be this meaning, fearing that the three tribes' stock was low and they couldn't afford to exchange.

At the same time, on the bronze square, all the members of the three tribes who came to watch the fun also had complex expressions after realizing what was about to happen.

Now they had become the fun.

On the ancient Demon Boat, there had always been a "food crisis."

Right now, these nine super big fish containing divine auras were enough to keep them from worrying about their stomachs for a short time.

But what was the cost?

A full nine portions of top-tier immortality medicine.

Tsk tsk, this number, it was simply as if it had been calculated.

Sharing rain and dew equally, paying attention to not leaving anyone behind.

At the current stage, the three tribes' immortality medicine stock could naturally handle this exchange.

Just because they could exchange, didn't mean they were willing.

A human youth with very obvious racial characteristics made a no-cost business, using the tools they provided, fishing up nine giant objects in their territory, and exchanging for nine portions of top-tier immortality medicine.

This couldn't even be called a huge profit; it was simply a shameless plunder.

When did they, these noble, great, and long-lived "Star God bloodline descendants," ever suffer such a big loss?

Especially since they were smart and guessed why Li Yu didn't take out all nine giant objects at the beginning.

Very simple!

He did it on purpose.

What he wanted was this kind of torture effect brought by the emotional progression.

As for why he did this?

The three tribes' hatred and discrimination towards the human race were not hidden at all, and they were recorded in Li Yu's little black book as soon as they met.

Now that he caught the opportunity, it was simply reasonable to take revenge.

Thinking about it, the three tribes had no way.

Rules are rules!

This sentence was the motto on the Demon Boat, the iron law.

No matter how unhappy, or even hateful, they were, they had to honestly exchange the nine portions of immortality medicine to Li Yu.

"Good, worthy of being a believer of the 【Master of the Veil】."

"So that's it, just beginner's luck, and the blessing of the Veil's divinity, it can't affect the Eternal Mist, but it temporarily found a helper for itself."

"The Secret Master tribe's action can indeed pull these giant objects up."

The three priests stepped forward to deliver the immortality medicine while comforting themselves with words.

And very quickly, they all thought of a perfect, self-deceiving method.

That was to encourage Li Yu to eat immortality medicine, the more the better; other costs and side effects could be exempted, but in terms of bloodline and exterior, it was the hardest to remove.

As long as this human ate one or two portions, their racial essence would change.

At that time, they could barely be considered "one of us," and it wouldn't be considered humans taking advantage of them.

To achieve this goal!

The three priests also very kindly told him some methods to transfer costs and eat more immortality medicine.

Li Yu smiled and accepted everything, then turned and returned to the Pioneer.

This benefit picked up for no reason was simply too great.

Seeing that it was good, he should stop and run away quickly; that was the right thing to do.

He could feel that the malice in front of him was very intense and ready to move.

The reason why they didn't really take action!

It was probably because the Pioneer represented Wanfu City, and Li Yu had that obvious divine aura of the Master of the Veil on him.

Another reason was that the three Demon Boat tribes' harvest was not bad either.

It was an equal exchange; they just simply hated the human race.

If it were in another scene, the three tribes would definitely tear their faces off, wouldn't care about rules being rules, and would directly take action to slaughter Li Yu.

Although they were sealed in the current world, and half of their bloodline was human.

But the three Demon Boat tribes, like those races in the Chaos World, all regarded the human race as lowly slaves, or food, and even worse.

Li Yu's guess was completely correct.

Although with the help of these "Pioneer passengers" and the evil gods behind them, the crisis of the Ancient Demon Boat was greatly reduced, and it was one step closer to completely escaping.

But just because of Li Yu, when they looked at the departing Pioneer, their faces didn't look good.

……

Returning to the Pioneer, Li Yu didn't pay attention to the brain's broadcast.

Nor did he go to listen to where the next stop was.

Nor did he look at the brand-new scenery that was about to emerge outside the carriage window.

Nor did he pull up "Star Tear" again to read the Spirit Race history book in her body.

He went straight into his own private room, and a rare look of solemnity appeared in the depths of his eyes.

His high spiritual inspiration was frantically warning him.

The source?

It was at this moment, the "Idler Skin" on his body that had been silent for a long time, and Zuo Cikui's voice that he hadn't heard for two days, came again the moment Li Yu got the nine portions of immortality medicine and returned to the Pioneer.

"Brother Li is worthy of being the Order Master of the Demon Star!"

"No matter where you are, you can cause quite a stir."

"Zuo actually regrets not boarding the Pioneer with Brother Li."

Each sentence sounded like there was no abnormality.

But Li Yu felt incomparably intense danger and hidden but terrifying malice.

Almost immediately, he determined in his heart:

"Zuo Cikui is going to take action against me ahead of time!"

"Because of what?"

"The matter of the Water Moon Nunnery?"

"The movement just now?"

Li Yu's mind's alarm bell roared, and he was also a bit puzzled.

He didn't know that it was all of them.

Zuo Cikui had written Li Yu as a "supporting character" in the Book of Red Dust, intending to wait for Li Yu to return and arrange the ending.

The divinity of the Master of the Veil is just that domineering.

It doesn't pay attention to any dangerous battles or terrifying slaughter, directly showing invincible power at the narrative level.

This is why there were not many high-level officials from the City Lord's Mansion on the Ancient God Train during the Pioneer's maiden voyage.

It wasn't that the City Lord's Mansion didn't care.

In reality, it was already treated with the highest specifications.

Not to mention him, Li Yu, normally he couldn't turn the sky over.

There were a bunch of divine chosen kin on the train, each with incomparably powerful backers.

But they boarded the Pioneer as passengers and became supporting characters, so everything about this trip was already destined.

No one could change it, and no accidents would occur.

Originally, it was indeed like this.

But not long ago, Zuo Cikui suddenly realized.

The appearances and performances of other supporting characters were completely correct.

Only the number of appearances and performance of this character, Li Yu, began to be abnormal.

Too many, and not right.

This made Zuo Cikui think of a very bad possibility: character out of control.

After Li Yu made a big splash again and obtained a full nine portions of immortality medicine, this worry in his heart reached its peak.

Although existing evidence couldn't prove this, it could even be said that his Zuo Cikui's eye was excellent, choosing the best puppet.

But to avoid long nights and many dreams!

Zuo Cikui still decided to take action ahead of time.

Even, take action from a distance.

Possessing and controlling a powerhouse at the sequence four level!

And it was from a long distance.

This was originally an impossible thing to happen, especially since Zuo Cikui and Li Yu were at the same level.

But who let Li Yu wear the 【Idler Skin】 given by Zuo Cikui, and he was also written in the Book of Red Dust, and his body and soul were still on the Pioneer, completely shrouded by the divine power of the Master of the Veil.

In other words, in Zuo Cikui's eyes, Li Yu was equivalent to a fish on a chopping block.

Even if it was tens of thousands of miles away, it had no meaning.

Zuo Cikui moved his mind, and he could initiate control and possession.

If it were anyone else, they really wouldn't be able to sense Zuo Cikui's malice.

But Li Yu knew it in an instant.

"Sure enough, don't underestimate anyone."

"This guy probably doesn't know at all that I want to turn around and mess with him; relying on a suspicion, he intends to possess me first."

"It's good that he came; if I had returned to the City Lord's Mansion, I would have had a risk if I hung him on my fishing hook."

"Now that he took the initiative to send himself to the door, this last trace of weak risk is gone."

"Let's see if your 'Ancient-Modern Puppet Master' means are brilliant, or my Bait Monarch fishing technique is more exquisite."

As thoughts flickered.

Li Yu silently took out the nine portions of immortality medicine, didn't even look at them, and directly started stuffing them into his mouth.

He didn't care about the appearance, taste, cost, side effects, etc.

What he wanted was just the lifespan inside.

Or rather!

Points!

Every time he swallowed a portion of immortality medicine, he possessed quite a few points.

Therefore, the massive pollution surging over couldn't stay in his body for even a breath, and was directly transferred to the Sinful Buddha Child in the depths of the Boundless Spirit Realm.

Poor this god who was barely born, the parents wanted to kill them, and Li Yu, this cesarean section doctor, treated them as a pollution treatment plant.

"Spirit Venerable add points!"

"Start ripening from the 【Cursed Finger】."

Li Yu thought this while simultaneously opening his mouth to deal with and delay Zuo Cikui.
