Chapter 349

~14 min read 2,794 words

Inside the closed carriage of the Pioneer, which had been cast with some kind of spatial magic, a three-on-one slaughter was underway.

The four figures were all terrifying, transcendent existences.

The one who performed the most powerfully and terrifyingly was naturally "Blood Grind," the Blood God's God-Chosen who had won first place in the internal grand tournament of the Blood God Temple; when he entered his state, he was simply like the human incarnation of that legendary Blood God who destroyed everything.

Nothing could withstand a single punch or kick, or divine art, from him, including space itself; every time he moved, he shattered space.

But here, there was an exception.

If an ordinary Sequence Four level cultivator were grabbed by Blood Grind at close range, their body would immediately be shattered, torn apart, and ground into powder.

Yet Li Yu was not.

The reason lay in his bones, which were simply too hard.

Accompanied by "Boom, boom, boom" sounds, one could see that in that paste-like viscous space, two figures, one large and one small, were actually trading blows, fist to flesh.

When violence reaches a certain degree, it counts as aesthetics.

The destructive power was horrifying, and the overflowing Qi destroyed all foreign objects in the area indiscriminately; any intruder would be attacked by both of them simultaneously.

So when Li Yu and Blood Grind were fighting like this, "Hu Buku" and "Gongsun Qi" on the side had not even made a move, just watching.

The result was no surprise; except for his power armor being shattered by Li Yu and some wounds appearing all over his body, Blood Grind had no fatal injuries.

And Li Yu, his whole body was almost beaten to pieces.

And because of this, the golden, indestructible Jin Gang Glazed Bones beneath his flesh were revealed.

When that extremely authentic divine Buddha light, clearly originating from the "Buddha," surged out, not only the two onlookers but also Zuo Cikui further away, and even Blood Grind, were stunned by it.

What happened to the God-Chosen of Myriad Changes?

Fighting and fighting, and a Buddha-son comes out?

And a Buddha-son who was highly likely to have been blessed by the Buddha; his bones were too hard.

Even a powerhouse like "Blood Grind" could not break them in a short time.

Seeing the astonishment on their faces, Li Yu, whose face was also beaten to a pulp, grinned with his flesh-mangled mouth, exposing his gums, and said with a smile:

"How are these Jin Gang Buddha bones of mine?"

"They were also stolen by me."

As his voice fell, Li Yu vanished in front of Blood Grind in an instant.

He actually used a strange space-time ability to forcibly leave the battlefield, turning instead to entangle Gongsun Qi and Hu Buku, drawing these two into a new battlefield as well.

Seeing this scene, Zuo Cikui and the three puppets were surprised again.

Although it was unexpected that a pair of Jin Gang Buddha bones were embedded in his body.

But anyone could see that even with Buddha bones, Li Yu was no match for Blood Grind; at most, he would last a moment longer before being dismantled into a pile of rotten meat by Blood Grind.

He couldn't even beat one person, yet he had to add two more opponents of the same realm.

Not to mention how powerful Hu Buku was; among the three major multiverses in the Boundless Spirit Realm, the 【Chaos World】, the Blood God had the strongest combat power, but the Kind Father's reputation was only slightly weaker. As the Kind Father's God-Chosen, Hu Buku, although his level of favor was far inferior to the Plague Lord on the Pioneer,

his methods were also extremely horrifying; poisoning or infecting hundreds of thousands of people alone was no issue.

As for Gongsun Qi?

This divine entity, the Hanging King, seemed inconspicuous and didn't have much fame.

But in reality, he was also a powerful True God.

He possessed divine powers such as "Dimensional Erosion," "Reality Distortion," and "Meme Contamination."

Most of the Hanging King path cultivators Li Yu had seen before were just mental contamination paired with strange objects like hanging ropes.

But when they reached Sequence Four, a qualitative change occurred.

Just a short while ago, Gongsun Qi had caused a major incident in Wanfu City, becoming even more famous; a divine evil that had broken into the city from a forbidden area was "hanged" by Gongsun Qi with a dimensional magic rope and sacrificed to the demon god 【Hanging King】 who resided in the space-time rift.

He couldn't even beat one Blood God's God-Chosen, yet he had to forcibly provoke these two opponents.

Is he courting death?

This thought of Zuo Cikui's was soon slapped down by Li Yu again.

Adding two more people not only didn't lead to Li Yu being quickly slaughtered, but instead achieved a strange balance.

He was disheveled, but he was safe and sound.

The reason lay in the fact that Li Yu displayed different divine powers one after another.

Respectively, the "Space-Time Power" that could ignore the restrictions of the three, the "Undying Body" that Zuo Cikui had long known about, and most crucially, that power to distort reality and cognition.

A pair of dark purple hands!

Turned the battlefield into a labyrinth of myriad changes.

The "attacks" of the three were cleverly neutralized by him using the shifting of stars; for example, Blood Grind's invincible power was frequently transferred by Li Yu to Gongsun Qi and Hu Buku.

Or he would perform something similar to hypnosis or bewitchment on the three.

Although they could all break free within a second, in such high-end slaughter, having a second of leeway was enough for Li Yu to escape.

What made Zuo Cikui even more furious was that Li Yu also possessed a treasure called the 【Chronos Demon Luo Pan】.

Even if he made a mistake in operation!

He could use this strange object to forcibly reverse half a breath of time, turning the situation around.

Relying on these magical means!

Li Yu fought one against three without falling behind.

If this scene had happened directly in Wanfu City, under the eyes of the masses, Li Yu's reputation would have exploded again.

The number one prodigy!

It could be said to be well-deserved.

And at this moment, the only onlooker outside the battlefield, Zuo Cikui, was also exceptionally agitated.

Excitement and regret appeared simultaneously on the face that had been indifferent for many years but had lost its composure repeatedly today.

"God-Chosen of Myriad Changes, absolutely the most top-tier kin of Myriad Changes."

"Stealing divine flesh, stitching organs, bewitching the daughter of an outer evil god to share bloodlines, obtaining a finger gifted by the Lord of Myriad Changes... a natural villain, thief, and traitor."

"He is mine; I should have possessed a perfect puppet of destiny, a son of luck."

"With his talent plus my assistance, he will definitely be able to ascend to become an auxiliary god of the Lord of Myriad Changes in the future."

"By then, even the feedback he gives me alone would be enough for me to step into the realm of the 【Play God of All Heavens】."

"Damn it, I underestimated this kid earlier, I was too careless, I didn't properly conceal my methods."

"If I had known earlier that this kid had such heaven-defying potential, I would have been more subtle."

Clearly, Li Yu's performance completely conquered Zuo Cikui.

In his view, Li Yu was simply a natural auxiliary god of the Lord of Myriad Changes, with an extremely high probability of ascending to godhood.

At the same time, Li Yu should have belonged to Zuo Cikui as a treasured puppet!

Capable of perfectly stimulating luck and destiny, and finally feeding back great benefits to him.

Now, that was not certain.

Li Yu already knew his malice!

And even the idle person's skin had been forcibly taken off.

To refine him silently again was no longer possible.

It had even become an unknown mystery whether he could be refined at all now.

"If he makes up his mind to self-destruct, to burn together."

"I really can't help it."

"Even if I use ruthless methods to beat him to the brink of death and then refine and control him, it will damage his luck and talent."

Thinking of this, Zuo Cikui frowned.

At this moment, he was in a bit of a dilemma.

He could completely order Blood Grind and the others to kill him regardless of the cost, and Li Yu's many little tricks would soon fail.

He could also summon more puppets to swarm him, ensuring he could quickly subdue Li Yu without giving him any chance to escape.

But what Zuo Cikui wanted now was for Li Yu to surrender voluntarily, to obtain a perfect puppet of destiny.

Caught between a rock and a hard place!

For a moment, he didn't know how to choose.

The only consolation: the Pioneer was the absolute territory of the 【Lord of the Veil】, other divine entities could not step foot in it, and could not even know everything that happened on the train; even if they had their God-Chosen kin as a medium, without permission, they would still be blind.

The power of the narrative domain was just that overbearing and unreasonable.

In Zuo Cikui's eyes, if a "God-Chosen of Myriad Changes" like Li Yu were willing to pay the price to open his mouth and ask the Lord of Myriad Changes for help.

Then this divine entity, whose reputation among the gods was only slightly better than the Spirit Venerable, would definitely descend to save him; by then, even if he summoned the Lord of the Veil, he wouldn't be able to get the upper hand.

Speaking of which!

The reason why Li Yu had already displayed overly perverted ability to steal laws and stitch divine organs.

But Zuo Cikui had never suspected that Li Yu was of the Spirit Venerable path.

He firmly believed: Li Yu was a God-Chosen of Myriad Changes.

The reason it went so smoothly had two causes:

One was Li Yu's overly obvious "dark purple hands," which were practically like anti-theft watermarks.

The second was that without Zuo Cikui knowing, his cognition had been distorted, and he had been reverse-contaminated and eroded.

From the very beginning, Zuo Cikui had fallen into the trap.

His subsequent actions were all influenced by Li Yu.

And Li Yu showing his "extraordinary value" was also using himself as bait to lure Zuo Cikui, making him deeply bewitched, falling into hesitation, and letting the battlefield fall into a stalemate.

Zuo Cikui!

The prodigy of this generation in the Main Mansion, the Puppet Master of Past and Present who controlled multiple puppets, a powerhouse who could cause a major incident alone.

Li Yu was indeed already very powerful, but if they were to fight head-on, he would likely suffer a miserable defeat, and it would be good enough if he could save his life and escape.

But as it happened, Zuo Cikui never used ruthless methods.

The reason?

He had been lured by Li Yu.

Every step Li Yu took, all the scenes presented now, were carefully calculated.

The goal was just to let Li Yu's only ability not yet displayed, "Void Bait Silk," silently invade every part of Zuo Cikui's body, including his heart and soul.

Compared to the two big fish that had already been hooked: the God-Chosen of Myriad Changes, Joseph, and the Corrupt Lotus Evil Buddha-son.

Zuo Cikui was much more troublesome.

The former two had eaten the forbidden gourmet food with added ingredients personally cooked by Li Yu, and the latter was delivered by a C-section he performed with the Hand of Truth; both were completed easily.

For Zuo Cikui, there was only an idle person's skin as a medium.

Fortunately, his strategy was more than half successful.

Zuo Cikui was tempted by this "bait" of Li Yu's.

Without telling any teachers, he took the risk personally, and his mind fluctuated due to missing out on a perfect puppet of destiny... he completely failed to notice that his own shell was being invaded by billions of invisible and intangible void bait silks.

The flesh and blood of the whole body was just the first step; to completely hook this big fish and thoroughly invade his heart and soul was the only way to succeed.

"Very risky!"

"If I take one wrong step, I won't even have the chance to wander the Boundless Spirit Realm."

"Fortunately, Zuo Cikui is too arrogant and too greedy."

"Relying on the Main Mansion and the Lord of the Veil, he has been too smooth for so many years, plus my countless times of actively showing weakness, and he had no guard against putting on the idle person's skin he gave me, allowing him to write me into the Book of Red Dust... from his perspective, I was indeed a duck in his mouth that couldn't fly away."

"Especially when I was one sequence lower than him, letting him manipulate me, being obedient, and even putting on the idle person's clothes, I was practically a fish that jumped onto his chopping board voluntarily."

"Unfortunately, he didn't expect my True Soul Body to be able to exempt the idle person's skin."

"And he didn't expect that I am not a God-Chosen of Myriad Changes, but a successor of the Spirit Venerable, and can ascend to Bait-Eating True Lord within two days."

"Greed blinded his eyes, so much so that he didn't discover my malice at all, and even stayed in the same room with me for so long."

"I've risked using myself as bait for so long, it's time to reel in the line."

When these thoughts flashed.

Li Yu inadvertently turned his head to look at Zuo Cikui.

He was still struggling with how to handle it, how to perfectly harvest a puppet of destiny.

Yet he didn't know that in a void perspective that no one but Li Yu could see: billions of void bait silks, using the "idle person's clothes" as a medium, slowly drilled into Zuo Cikui's body, and with the disguise of the same source of Qi, they bypassed all vigilance and silently occupied everything inside Zuo Cikui.

Including his heart and soul.

Completing this still didn't count as success.

Although if Li Yu launched his True Lord methods at this moment, he could instantly severely injure or even slaughter Zuo Cikui.

But Li Yu was also greedy.

Zuo Cikui wanted a destiny character like him, but wouldn't Li Yu also want a "Big Play God Fish"?

"Having the best of both worlds is not impossible."

"The time for acting has come."

Li Yu's thoughts fell, and he immediately took action.

But in the battlefield, the stalemate that had maintained a strange balance suddenly changed.

It seemed that Li Yu's painstaking maintenance finally went wrong.

At this moment, he failed to transfer the Blood God's divine art that Blood Grind had blasted over to the other two, but instead took a solid hit himself.

Even with the Jin Gang Glazed Indestructible Bones, he was beaten until cracks appeared all over his body, falling into a brief stiffness.

Immediately following, Hu Buku used a "Kind Father's Grasp" to tear Li Yu's pair of dark purple hands right off.

Then his whole person was immediately hung up by Gongsun Qi with a dimensional magic rope, falling into a strange state between life and death, unable to struggle, unable to think.

All this happened too fast!

So fast that Li Yu didn't have time to activate that Chronos Demon Luo Pan.

This treasure fell to the ground with a clatter.

Zuo Cikui, who was struggling and troubled, saw this scene and was overjoyed.

A thought that seemed whimsical but actually had some possibility of realization appeared in his mind for no reason:

"It seems, there is still a chance?"

"This kid is now captured, it's not difficult to refine him into a puppet, but for this kind of puppet, the heart and soul are shattered and reorganized by me, the luck is interfered with by me, the future will become unknown, and even once he leaves the Pioneer, he might be discovered by the Lord of Myriad Changes; the talent and potential might not be fully realized, it's really too wasteful."

"But if he surrenders to me voluntarily now, his heart and soul don't struggle, I quickly refine him, and I can also borrow that 【Chronos Demon Luo Pan】 and my narrative authority to erase all traces left in this space-time... wouldn't that be equivalent to these changes never having happened?"
