Chapter 425 Lu Yu's Sudden Wealth! Eight-Star Material! Dividing the Primordial Worm!
"Is this the reward for becoming a god-slayer...?"
Lu Yu looked at the three blank law seeds floating in front of him and couldn't believe it was real.
After being poor for so long, this is the first time I've been this rich!
This means that the three pet beasts can give birth to their own laws!
The Little Spider's Void Weaving Heaven Law is already strong enough; it's hard to imagine what kind of law Egg and Paper Knight will give birth to.
Moreover, this is only the hand of a god. If it were a complete deity, how abundant would it be?
Lu Yu now felt like dragging out the Mother of Twilight and beating her up again.
Ultimately, it was strength and reason that restrained him.
If the Mother of Twilight returns, he will most likely be the one to die!
After all, now that they have lost the support of the Thousand-Eyed Sun King's armor and lack the combat power of a pseudo-king, they would be instantly killed with a single glance when facing high-dimensional deities, and they are not qualified to start any further plans.
Moreover, deceiving the world and the lies of kings require the convergence of favorable timing, location, and people; the absence of any one of these factors may lead to exposure and failure.
The most crucial point is that the Mother of Twilight is blocked by the mortal world and cannot descend in her true form.
When the chaotic era reaches its peak and spirituality reaches its zenith, the transformation of countless beings will also benefit the main world, further enhancing it. In the process, the suppression of external gods and powerful beings will be relaxed.
Only then will we truly confront the terror of these indescribable gods!
Given the debts Lu Yu currently carries, there are easily enough to name a few: the Mother of Twilight, the God of the Underworld, the God of Machines, the Moon of Procreation... Therefore, he must hurry up and improve his strength, otherwise he will face the pursuit of the gods and find it difficult to move forward.
"What we lack most is time!"
Lu Yu sighed, not bothered by it. Even if the gods didn't come looking for him, he would still go to the stars to see them.
Without truth as the judge, how boring would this chess game be?
As for how to allocate the three blank Law Seeds, he hesitated.
Although Spider-Man has already used one of his spots, don't forget...
There are also the Black Red Dragon Ant and the Three Calamities Peacock.
They are incredibly powerful and highly functional. Although they are all incarnations of rats, they are indeed independent individuals. Not to mention the kings, even the gods cannot distinguish between them, and the Mother River has bestowed upon them corresponding mantras.
Moreover, to some extent, they represent the interests of the rat clones.
Lu Yu's ability to thrive in so many secret realms and battles is inseparable from the hard work and dedication of the little mice, who do all the dirty and tiring tasks.
The little mice were willing to give everything to him unconditionally, so how could Lu Yu possibly let them down?
So, including the real Mouse, Egg, Paper Knight, Red Hare, and its two incarnations.
It's not a choice of three out of four, but a choice of three out of six.
Both teams are equally important, so it's best to stick to the old rules and start an intra-team competition.
But if the mouse doesn't evolve, it will probably sit on the sidelines along with its clone.
Being strong in all aspects and developing in multiple directions is an advantage, but it also means that the overall performance in the early and mid-game will be mediocre, and the overall combat power will not be as good as Egg or Paper Knight, who develop in a single aspect.
The disadvantage of late-game heroes is that they may not be able to reach the late game.
"Never mind, let's wait until... oh right, let's start after the mouse evolves." Lu Yu shook his head, almost forgetting the mouse's name again.
With that in mind, he activated the second orb of light.
hum!
As the golden light faded, a dark golden, translucent ball of light emerged, surrounded by fiery clouds, resembling an exquisite work of art.
But upon closer inspection, one will discover that the so-called "clouds and mist" are actually countless tiny ancient divine scripts, densely packed and overlapping, constantly changing and twisting to form new characters.
The moment Lu Yu saw it, he also received relevant information.
Eggs of the Primordial Dusk Worm
[Description: Originating from the foundation of the Mother of Twilight, it was born from the end of all things. As a symbol of the twilight of all things, it is present in the destruction of the world, the passing of life, and the annihilation of civilization.]
Unlike ordinary descendants, the progenitor-level Twilight Worm has a near-perfect body structure and top-tier Twilight attribute affinity, allowing it to manipulate the twilight glow.
They enjoy devouring the spirituality of the sun and night to grow, and can also balance the two. They can also see the end of all things and absorb the final breath of all things as they head towards destruction.
Using this as fuel, it emits the light of dusk, thereby gaining extreme speed and a radiance that mortals cannot look directly at, in order to hasten the end of all things.
The larger the swarm, the greater its power. When the number reaches a certain level, a special aura ability—the Twilight Aura—will emerge during the frequent feasts of feeding.
It allows the swarm of insects to exhale their accumulated "twilight energy," transforming it into radiance. This radiance forcibly attaches itself to the enemy, without reducing their lifespan, but it will cause them to enter a state of twilight, where their spirit, flesh, and soul will age and become sluggish, entering "twilight."
However, frequently expelling "twilight energy" beyond one's own capacity will lead to a state of weakness, or even a deep sleep, requiring replenishment with the spiritual energy of the sun or night, otherwise it will cause a large-scale death of insect swarms.
It can be enslaved by a dual-attribute beast of the Twilight and Insect attributes. It can change its own insect swarm and generate high-quality followers, but it will be subject to corresponding corruption. It can also improve its rank by possessing related skills.
Furthermore, the Protoss swarm is more likely to spawn unique hero individuals and high-quality hero units such as the Stunning Bug and the Twilight Bug.
It can be made into a Twilight/Bug-type evolution secret food, or into a skill secret food called "Twilight Bug Feast" to control the Twilight Bug swarm.
[Comment: They are the lackeys of twilight.]
"Now Flashy Flash is also getting a buff in this update!"
Lu Yu looked satisfied. After seeing that the foundation for constructing the Blood of God was the Twilight Worm, he had already anticipated that it would be among the spoils of war.
Although there are no pets with the dual attributes of Twilight and Insect, one of the three elements that form the basis of Egg is the radiance of Twilight, which has given rise to the skill [Twilight Insect Feast].
It is merely an inferior descendant of the Twilight Worm that has reproduced for countless generations. Although its bloodline has been purified through the evolution of the egg, it is still only a low-level descendant, yet it has already brought terrifying speed and soul-shaking flash magic.
It helped Lu Yu defeat a large number of powerful enemies.
As for the weak... they don't deserve to be used on him by Flash.
It can be said that the Dusk Swarm is Illidan's main source of combat power.
Now, the progenitor Twilight Worm is not only much stronger than its offspring, but it also possesses the ability to force its enemies into old age.
Even true kings, except for those of great stature, fear aging.
When a hero is old, not only do his spirituality, flesh and soul decay, but his reaction speed also declines, and even his will is shaken. Compared with his peak period, his combat power will drop by at least 3%.
If the little spider were to also suffer from the five signs of decay...
Let's eat right there on the spot!
"Why does my pet's style look more and more like a villain template that brings feasts to all realms? Cough cough, you must be wrong. They are kind-hearted like me and would not do such a thing."
However, with this series of buffs, Egg has essentially secured a spot as a Law Seed.
Lu Yu stroked his chin thoughtfully, looking at the egg that had finished its metamorphosis and returned to its normal shape, and threw the Primordial Twilight Worm Egg over.
Instead of replacing the original swarm, he...
The progenitor's eggs were intercepted and covered in the air by the thousands of beams of light emanating from the egg, and then devoured.
"Hey!"
A sharp, long screech came from within the insect eggs, startling the large swarm of insects, who lay still and dared not bite anymore.
The progenitor eggs tried to devour them, but as soon as they made a move, they saw the phantom of the pasture falling from the sky and were suppressed and unable to move.
"Hiss—"
The swarm of insects hissed excitedly and began their feast of devouring their progenitor.
Pfft!Pfft!
They kept feeding, but instead of seeing the light of evolution, their bodies began to wither rapidly, as if they had entered old age, and then they turned into mummies and died in large numbers.
The progenitor's egg was tattered and mangled, but the faint will within it seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and the instinct for survival rose within it.
Lu Yu watched all of this indifferently, without making a move to stop it.
"roar!"
Egg calmly flapped its wings, its eyes of reincarnation turning as it continued to sense the power of the City of Reincarnation.
Click click click!
Accompanied by a sound like firecrackers, the surface of the insect corpse cracked open, and from it emerged insects similar to the Twilight Insects, but with black and gold patterns swirling around their bodies. Their bodies changed from pure light to a mist mixed with wisps of fog from the City of Reincarnation.
The twilight wings on its body also had dark purple patterns that kept rotating. Its head became more and more ferocious and covered with tiny dragon scale patterns, making it look more and more domineering. It was somewhat similar to Egg. With each breath, it exhaled boiling dragon energy that eroded everything.
The skill "Twilight Insect Feast" on Egg's skill list began to blur, and then quickly transformed into a brand new skill - "Reincarnation Insect Feast (Prototype)".
The skill quality changed from Super-Tier to Legendary, directly boosting Egg's racial potential to that of a Primary Ecosystem Master.
【The Reincarnation Worm Feast (Prototype): Through the ritual of devouring the progenitor, the inferior descendant swarm of worms was successfully transformed into the retinue of the Hundred-Eyed Dragon that devours the world. The prototype of the Reincarnation Worm inherited all the abilities of the progenitor Twilight Worm and will no longer be subject to the control or suppression of the Twilight Authority. It prefers to devour the world.
If one can devour the ultimate power of life and death, one can evolve into a true reincarnation worm, capable of constructing a gate to reincarnation, existing between life and death.
They cannot be destroyed without breaking the cycle of reincarnation.
"The Mother of Twilight really does like to pull little tricks, as always..."
Lu Yu shook his head. He had long since figured out his old rival's habits; he knew what the other person was up to just by looking at him.
A seemingly casual action could conceal a trap that will last for years.
For example, if the Progenitor Dusk Bug were used to replace the Egg's own swarm, its strength would definitely increase significantly, and no matter how you check it, there would be no problem.
Since there are indeed no problems, the only drawback is that it will be closer to the depths of the Twilight Path, subject to greater influence from the Twilight's authority, becoming a destabilizing factor. These swarms might even turn against them at a crucial moment. Even if they are made into secret food, it won't help; they will still involuntarily approach the source of Twilight, becoming a dish in the eyes of the Twilight Mother.
Therefore, Lu Yu chose to sacrifice a portion of the Primordial Twilight Insect's power to help Egg Egg generate its own familiars.
A feast at dusk, shared to celebrate the twilight.
Seek the path to reincarnation in the end!
Finally, they successfully transformed into the attributes of the Reincarnation Insects, increasing the swarm's strength by about one-third, but their potential increased several times over.
It should be understood that the path of reincarnation is not occupied by any great being, and one can go against the current indefinitely.
The only thing to be careful of is that mysterious being that shattered the Tree of Death!
As for the concepts of life and death...
The fastest way is to find [Crimson of Life] and [Emperor of the Corpse].
The third orb of light is a third of the [Twilight Sky] that was cut off by the collector. Now it is in a broken state, increasingly chaotic and lifeless, which makes it more in line with the concept of the end.
【Shattered Twilight Sky (Eight-Star Beginner Material): Originating from the Twilight Mother's unique ecological formation of the End God Kingdom through her own twilight and end, it symbolizes the twilight and end of all beings in the Mother River realm. It was conceived through the Twilight Palace and opened up ■■■■■, but it encountered disease, leading to the beginning of chaos.
Once you step into this Twilight Kingdom, all life and deities will come to an end, even fate will be buried. All life entangled by the end cannot defy Him, and can radiate out corresponding ecological kingdoms.
At the same time, the twilight realm holds the ashes of the end of all things and possesses the power to seal divinity.
When the Mother of Twilight finishes everything, rings the final bell, and melts the Twilight Sky into the graveyard of the sun, all realms will face their end.
Controlling one-third of the Twilight Sky is equivalent to tearing apart a portion of Twilight's authority, and will result in His relentless pursuit until death.
However, in turn, it can also erode the other party's authority and plunder it.
It can be used to create an evolutionary secret food of the Twilight attribute, or it can be used as a skill secret food called "Shattered Twilight Heaven" to summon the Shattered Twilight Heaven to descend, forming a barrier similar to the True Kingdom. The range of this barrier can be increased as one's strength grows.
[Comment: The end is not death, but only the beginning!]
Eight-star quality material!
Although he had expected it, Lu Yu's heart still pounded when he saw the material's quality.
This is the highest-grade material he has ever obtained, bar none!
What surprised him even more was that the Ash Power wielded by the Tianzhou civilization actually came from…
Mother of Twilight!
Was everything about the Tianzhou civilization also orchestrated by Him?
But thinking about it, it makes sense. Ashes need to absorb the sun's brilliance to transform and dim it. In a sense, isn't that a kind of end?
It conforms to the authority of the Mother of Twilight!
I wonder if He was behind the scenes in instigating the birth of the old era?
"But what exactly is His purpose? Why wait until now, adding instability and causing the plan to fail, when He could have made the sun age earlier?"
Lu Yu frowned, sensing that the mist surrounding the Mother of Twilight was growing thicker.
If it weren't for the omniscient power of the Authority of Truth, which allowed him to see some information, even if the two abilities were somewhat similar, Lu Yu would never have made that connection.
Considering that the other party didn't seem disappointed when they retreated, it's likely they had other plans.
A good strategist is never in a hurry!
Compared to him, the ex-husband is a joke.
But... what exactly is the Mother of Twilight's purpose?
What is the relationship between Him and the Supreme Sun, the Forbidden Sun?
Is the Mother of Twilight the original mother goddess?
Lu Yu was filled with all sorts of questions, but no one could answer them for him; instead, it only added to his troubles.
Although he had never looked down on great beings, his success in killing the god this time had indeed made him quite arrogant, giving him the feeling that "gods are nothing more than this."
But now, it's like being doused with cold water, which has sobered me up considerably.
I understand now that I must always maintain awe for the strong!
Even with the Eye of Truth, if one becomes arrogant because of a little achievement, one will definitely be manipulated by the Mother of Twilight and eventually become a pawn.
They didn't even know how they died.
"But it's only with opponents like this that things become more interesting!" Lu Yu's lips curled up slightly as he looked at the fourth ball of light.
hum!
As the radiance faded, a dark golden chain formed from the light of dusk emerged, its entire body radiant and inscribed with ancient and mysterious runes, winding and shimmering like folded beams of light.
Even with his superhuman vision, Lu Yu could only barely capture it, which shows how fast it was.
"Woof!"
The moment it appeared, the Sun-Eating King's court was ablaze, emitting a warning wail.
As for the black goats in the pasture, they were already lying on the ground, trembling.
"roar!"
Even the egg-shaped object felt intense discomfort. Its hundred eyes unfolded and began to wriggle. This thing seemed to have a suppressive effect on twilight... or rather, the sun.
Splash!
However, the chains ignored their intimidation and, like a strange serpent winding through the void, quickly crawled towards Lu Yu, yet obediently lay down in front of him.
The chains swayed gently, brushing against Lu Yu's palm. They transformed into weapons like swords, spears, and halberds according to his thoughts, before returning to their original form and then expressing a yearning.
Longing to... be a part of myself!
Lu Yu pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
Then it transformed into a beam of light, quickly reflected behind Lu Yu. The two ends of the chain were connected, yet they seemed to devour each other, like an ouroboros, linking the origin and the end, forming a crown of light, embedded in the void, constantly scattering radiance.
Moreover, within that halo, countless chains of light converged and tugged, as if imprisoning countless ancient lives and trapping shadows.
This added a touch of majesty and mystery to Lu Yu's already handsome appearance.
"This thing is amazing."
Upon receiving the relevant information, a hint of astonishment flashed in Lu Yu's eyes.
Because this chain of light seems to belong to the Twilight Order...
The instrument of supreme power!
【The Lock of the End: It originated from the Lord of the Gate who successfully severed the hand of the gods in the ruins of the sun and released the divinity of twilight.】
This symbolizes the suppression of lower-ranking beings by the Mother of Twilight as the pinnacle of the rules, thus shackled them.
Users can expend psionic energy to condense more chains to entangle enemies, the number depending on their strength. Users will also suffer the same level of corruption. Entangled beings will be eroded by the spirit of Twilight, corrupted, and subjected to a mental judgment. Those who fail will be twisted into Twilight's servants and enslaved.
In the mortal realm, all followers of the Mother of Twilight will be unable to defy your will, will be chained, and will be driven by you. All rituals in the mortal realm of the main world that sacrifice to the Mother of Twilight must pass through your shackles. You hold the true order of Twilight and are the highest authority on the path of Twilight in the mortal realm.
Even the superior beings and their retinues created by the Mother of Twilight will be suppressed by chains and become bound prisoners.
It has a suppressive effect on the strong in the solar path such as dawn, daytime, and dusk, and after being imprisoned, their radiance will be plundered to promote their own growth.
If enough radiance is accumulated, one can summon corresponding followers, or even... twilight angels, from the divine realm—the Twilight Heaven.
[Comment: As the sun was buried in its coffin, the chains of the end wrapped around it, dragging it into eternal chaos.]
"This make-up identity of Archbishop Higurashi is getting more and more firmly established!"
Lu Yu couldn't help but complain that having this thing was equivalent to holding the highest power in the Twilight Order.
Everyone else has lower authority than him, so he was suppressed to death without even the right to resist.
Even the Mother of Twilight cannot interfere with him, and even mortal rituals must go through Lu Yu.
After the Mother of Twilight descends, if she wants to summon followers, she can use the Sun-Eating Royal Court and the Chains of the End to kill them all.
The Mother of Twilight was directly locked up in the mortal world by Lu Yu!
That sounds impressive, but...
The Twilight Cult has been completely wiped out, with only a few scoundrels remaining active.
The only one who received attention, Archbishop Twilight, was the Mother of Twilight's number one traitor, constantly plotting to kill God, and otherwise a lone commander.
As for sacrificial rituals, needless to say... these great beings don't really respond to them anyway.
Moreover, the Mother of Twilight suffered a severe blow this time, and knowing that Lu Yu, that traitor, is wandering in the mortal world, she probably won't respond to the sacrifices for some time to come.
They also worry about being phished.
Therefore, the greatest function of the Lock of the End is only to suppress the path of the sun and to collect light and summon angels.
It can be used to fish in the Twilight World and collect more divinity to graze on the ranch.
However, its overall functionality is not high, so Lu Yu decided to hand it over to Archbishop Twilight to enhance the authenticity of this disguise.
They will be used to handle shady matters in the future, thereby maintaining their own glorious image.
"Next is the last one..."
Lu Yu pondered for a moment, then looked at the last ball of light.

PS: 5600 chapters, please vote with monthly tickets. I'm feeling a little better. As for the frequent absences... I'm totally confused. You can check the update time for each chapter in the table of contents. I only rest for one day about every two weeks. Recently, I've been trying not to push myself too hard. If I collapse from exhaustion, I'll really have to put it off for a long time. I'll try to maintain a stable state and finish writing properly.
This time I've gained a lot, and I need to lay some groundwork, so it will be a bit more detailed. I'll list it all out and then explain where it will be used, as it's part of the process of improving combat power. I won't go into detail about how it will be used later, to avoid being accused of padding.
A new storyline starts tomorrow, the mice are evolving fast, getting an epic power-up, and Lu Da Huangmao is about to show off, accelerating his rise to the world stage. There's so much story to write, I really want a long vacation (crying)...
(End of this chapter)
