Lu Yu rolled his eyes and was about to speak when a cold mechanical voice suddenly rang in his mind: "Ding! System upgrade completed! Host, welcome to experience the new system!"

Lu Yu was stunned, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "System? Upgraded?"

"Exactly!"

The AI's voice continued, "After this upgrade, all item soul coins have been cleared and exchanged for luck points.

The host currently has 150 million lucky points! From now on, all items will be exchanged for lucky points. The mall has opened up the purchase rights for all items in this world, including spirit rings, martial spirits, etc.

To exchange a martial soul, you need to open a martial soul embedding position, and one position costs 10 billion luck points.

In addition, the mall has added new heroes from Honor of Kings for redemption, such as Di Renjie, Cheng Yaojin, and Old Master Q, and the redemption price is 100 million Lucky Points.

Lu Yu took a deep breath, his eyes filled with shock: "One hundred million lucky points in exchange for a spirit ring? This is too exaggerated, right?"

He quickly opened the system mall, his eyes swept across the dazzling array of items, and finally stopped at a familiar name - Di Renjie's soul ring, the exchange price was exactly 100 million lucky points.

He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "System, I want to exchange for Di Renjie's spirit ring!"

"Ding! Redemption successful!"

As soon as the system's voice fell, the sky suddenly darkened, and a blue light descended from the sky, carrying an unparalleled domineering aura.

The surrounding soul beasts all prostrated themselves on the ground, growling in fear.

Xiao Wu and A Qiong stood up at the same time, their eyes full of panic.

"Lu Yu! What's going on?"

Xiao Wu asked nervously.

Ah Qiong also frowned and said, "This aura... is so strong! Lu Yu, what the hell are you doing?"

Lu Yu grinned, with a hint of excitement in his tone: "Don't panic, this is my spirit ring!"

Before he finished speaking, a blue light suddenly fell on Lu Yu. His aura suddenly surged, and his soul power surged like a tide. The whole person seemed to be shrouded in a layer of blue light.

The air around was shaking, and there was a faint sound of thunder.

Xiao Wu's eyes widened as she murmured, "This... is this the aura of a Soul Emperor?"

Ah Qiong was surprised and looked Lu Yu up and down: "Tsk tsk, Lu Yu, you really have some skills! This spirit ring doesn't seem simple!"

Lu Yu felt the surging soul power in his body, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he smiled: "Not simple? Humph, this is just the beginning! Di Renjie's soul ring is not just as simple as improving his cultivation!"

Lu Yu sat cross-legged, the soul power in his body surging like a river, suddenly breaking through the bottleneck, a majestic aura burst out from his body, the surrounding grass and trees shook violently due to the impact, the branches and leaves rustled, as if the heaven and earth were trembling for him at this moment.

His soul power leaped from level fifty-nine to level sixty-three, achieving the Soul Emperor realm! He opened his eyes, the light in them shone like stars, his aura gradually subsided, yet his body emanated an invisible pressure.

In his mind, an illusory light screen appeared, showing an introduction to Di Renjie's skills.

Lu Yu focused intently, silently reciting in his mind: "Passive skill, basic attack stacking effect, each stack increases attack speed and movement speed by 5%; first skill, Six Orders to Pursue, slows down opponents; second skill, Escape, removes abnormal statuses and increases speed by 25% for one second; third skill, Imperial Decree, reduces enemy defense by 50% and stuns them for one second..."

He frowned slightly and muttered to himself, "This skill combination is indeed powerful, but unfortunately the hero is not cheap. Top heroes like Li Bai often require a huge amount of Luck Points. I'm afraid my current points are far from enough."

Xiao Wu, who was standing nearby, widened her eyes, her rabbit ears trembling slightly as she exclaimed, "Lu Yu, is this... a heaven-dropped soul bone? How is it possible to break through to level four in one go? This is too exaggerated!"

Ah Qiong stood with his hands behind his back, a hint of doubt in his eyes, but his tone couldn't hide his shock: "This power... is very strange, I can't even detect its source.

Lu Yu, your breakthrough is too outrageous. From level 59 to level 63 in such a short time, even I can't see the foundation of this power."

Lu Yu stood up, feeling the abundant soul power in his body. The aura between heaven and earth seemed to be more in tune with him, and his understanding of the world was clearer than ever before.

He smiled slightly, turned to look at Xiao Wu, and said firmly: "Xiao Wu, don't worry, I will definitely find a suitable soul bone for you. I will never break my promise."

He paused, his gaze sweeping towards the depths of the Star Forest in the distance. "Let's go, let's keep moving forward. The depths of the forest are full of dangers, but there are also more opportunities."

Xiao Wu nodded, her eyes full of trust, but Ah Qiong shrugged and stalked ahead with a nonchalant expression, muttering, "Murderous intent? They're just some little cats and dogs. I'm here, what are you afraid of?"

The three of them went deep into the Star Forest. Along the way, there were lush vegetation and a faint fishy smell in the air.

Lu Yu frowned slightly, keenly sensing the faint murderous intent around him, and warned: "Be careful, the aura here is not right, I'm afraid there are powerful enemies lurking."

Ah Qiong, however, didn't care at all and waved his hand: "What are you afraid of? With me here, who dares to cause trouble?"

After walking for about half a day, Lu Yu suddenly stopped, his ears moved slightly, and he whispered, "There's movement ahead, it seems like the smell of fighting, and there are slight roars. Let's go over and take a look."

The three of them quickened their pace and approached the source of the sound quietly.

After pushing aside a patch of dense bushes, Lu Yu's pupils shrank slightly at the scene before him.

I saw a huge soul beast that was eighty meters tall standing in front of me. Its body was 60% like a human, but it had two curved horns. Its whole body was covered with dark scales, and it exuded a terrifying pressure.

It was fighting fiercely with a group of human soul masters. The ground was trampled into potholes, and the surrounding trees were toppled over. The aftermath of the battle caused the air to distort slightly.

Xiao Wu exclaimed in a low voice: "That's... Zhou Jun! The guy we met last time!"

She pointed at a young man in the crowd and said in a complicated tone, "He suffered a great loss last time and almost lost his entire army. I didn't expect him to organize a group again so quickly and target this soul beast."

Lu Yu narrowed his eyes and observed the situation on the field.

Although the ox-horned soul beast was huge in size, it was obviously in poor condition. There was a sense of weakness in its movements, as if it had been affected by some kind of drug. Although its attacks were still ferocious, they lacked the explosive power they should have.

Even so, it still stood firm, resisting the siege of dozens of soul masters, showing the terrifying strength of the soul beast.

"This soul beast is not simple. It has at least 40,000 years of cultivation."

Lu Yu analyzed in a low voice, "But it was injured. It must have been drugged by those soul masters. Its strength has been greatly reduced."

A few minutes later, the situation on the battlefield suddenly changed.

The ox-horned soul beast let out an earth-shaking roar, and swung its huge arms suddenly, tearing the air apart. The three soul masters were caught off guard and were beaten into a pulp with a slap, and blood was spilled all over the ground.

The remaining soul masters' faces changed drastically, and they turned and fled without hesitation. Their terrified cries echoed in the forest: "Run! This monster is too strong!"

Ah Qiong sneered, his tone full of disdain: "A bunch of useless people, not strong enough yet dare to come to the depths of the Star Dou Forest to die, they really deserve it."

He glanced at the soul beast, his eyes flashing with interest, "This soul beast has 48,000 years of cultivation, and is now seriously injured, which is just right for Xiao Wu to absorb the soul bone.

Xiao Wu, do you want to try? Do you need my help?

Xiao Wu bit her lip, a hint of hesitation flashing in her eyes: "This... isn't a good idea? Even though it's injured, it's still a 48,000-year-old soul beast. Will it be dangerous for me to absorb it?"

Lu Yu waved his hand, his eyes firm: "Don't worry, give this soul to me.

"I just broke through to Soul Emperor and want to test my current strength." He looked at A Qiong and smiled. "You protect Xiao Wu, I'll go and deal with it."

Ah Qiong raised an eyebrow, his tone questioning: "You? You just broke through to the Soul Emperor level and you want to challenge a 48,000-year-old soul beast alone? Even if it is injured, its strength is much stronger than you.

I can kill it with one slap, are you sure you want to do it yourself?"

He paused, and seeing Lu Yu's determined expression, he curled his lips and said, "Okay, go and try, I'll help you watch Xiao Wu.

If that doesn’t work, I’ll try again.”

Lu Yu nodded, took a deep breath, and slowly walked towards the ox-horned soul beast.

The soul beast sensed his breath and turned its head suddenly. Its two scarlet eyes locked onto him as it let out a low roar.

The next moment, its huge body rushed over, the ground shook violently, and the trees along the way were broken one after another, with a terrifying sound.

Lu Yu's eyes condensed, and his soul power burst out instantly. Six golden tokens suddenly flew out from around his body, turning into streams of light and shooting directly at the soul beast. It was the "Six Orders to Chase the Murderer"

The token exploded in the air, transforming into shock waves. The soul beast's massive body paused slightly, and its forward pace slowed significantly.

Lu Yu took advantage of the situation and gestured again, saying in a low voice: "Secret order of the dynasty!"

A golden light burst out from his hand and hit the soul beast's chest directly.

The soul beast let out a painful roar, its body suddenly stiffened, its defense suddenly dropped by half, and then it was fixed in place by the stunning effect.

Lu Yu flashed and cast "Seal Fate"

The soul beast's movements became even slower, as if it was restrained by an invisible force.

Then, he shouted, "The power of corruption!"

The soul power surged wildly in his body. Lu Yu teleported in front of the soul beast, clenched his right fist, and the terrifying force of the Eight Extremes Collapse was in the "Power of Fall"

With the blessing of , the power instantly increased by sixty-four times, and the fist wind was mixed with a sixty-four percent enhancement effect.

The soul beast's defense has been "Dynasty Secret Order"

Weakened by half, the punch blasted out like thunder, tearing the air apart and making a sharp explosion.

"boom!"

The fist hit the soul beast's chest hard. The huge body of the soul beast, which was 48,000 years old, shook suddenly, and let out a shrill roar. Then it fell to the ground with a bang, and a huge deep pit was smashed into the ground, and dust flew everywhere.

Xiao Wu's eyes widened, she covered her mouth and exclaimed, "It...it's dead already? A 48,000-year-old soul beast, and you killed it with just one punch, Lu Yu?!"

Ah Qiong also looked incredulous, muttering, "This kid...how did he do that? Even if the soul beast was injured and its defense was weakened, it shouldn't be killed by his punch!"

Lu Yu retracted his fist, his breathing was a little rapid, but there was a hint of smile in his eyes.

He looked at Xiao Wu and said in a deep voice, "Don't just stand there, absorb the soul bones quickly, so as not to attract other soul masters."

He turned to Ah Qiong and said, "Help me protect the law. I need to recover."

Xiao Wu nodded quickly, ran to the soul beast's corpse, and began to absorb the soul bones.

Ah Qiong stood aside, his eyes fixed on Lu Yu. He asked curiously, "Hey, Lu Yu, tell me honestly, how did you do it? With your strength, it's impossible to kill this soul beast with one punch, unless you used some sharp weapon!"

Lu Yu smiled and shook his head, "There's no secret.

This soul beast was already seriously injured, and I used my skills to weaken its defenses. The power of the Eight Extremes Collapse just happened to explode to its maximum, plus a bit of luck."

He knew in his heart that all this success was inseparable from the perfect combination of Di Renjie's skills, especially the "Secret Order of the Dynasty"

The effect of weakening defense is truly a magical skill.

A Qiong curled his lips, obviously not quite believing it, but he didn't ask any more questions. He just stood aside to protect Xiao Wu.

Just when Xiao Wu was absorbing the soul bone, a burst of hurried footsteps was heard in the distance, and several figures rushed out from the woods.

The leader was a middle-aged man in blue clothes, with a powerful aura. He was actually a level 68 Soul Emperor.

When he saw the soul beast corpse on the ground, a trace of shock flashed in his eyes. Then he looked at Lu Yu and the other two coldly and said in a deep voice: "Hand over the soul bones, otherwise, you will all die!"

Lu Yu frowned and sneered: "You want soul bones? Come and get them if you can!"

The middle-aged man in green snorted coldly, and his soul power burst out. A giant tiger appeared behind him, roaring and rushing towards Lu Yu. It was the "tiger bite"

Soul Skill! The air was torn apart with astonishing power.

Lu Yu was not afraid at all, his spirit ring shone, and he shouted: "Breaking Waves Slash!"

The soul power turned into a huge blade light and slashed out, and the air made a sharp whistling sound.

Then, he waved his hands, and the waves surged.

The sky suddenly darkened as it started, and a huge ghost ship appeared out of thin air, smashing towards the middle-aged man in blue and others with endless pressure.

"surge!"

Lu Yu made another move, the airflow turned into a huge palm, and suddenly grabbed the middle-aged man in blue and others. The giant ship crashed down, the ground cracked, and dust flew.

When the dust settled, all the soul masters were wiped out, with no one left alive.

The other soul masters who were originally ready to make a move around were frightened and trembled when they saw this scene, their eyes full of horror.

Lu Yu looked at the whole place with an indifferent gaze, and said in a cold voice, "Who else wants to snatch the soul bone? If you have the guts, come up and try. If you don't, get out!"

The crowd fell silent, no one dared to move forward, and after a moment, they all turned around and fled, disappearing into the depths of the forest.

After Xiao Wu finished absorbing the soul bone, she stood up, her eyes full of gratitude: "Lu Yu, thank you... If it weren't for you, I would never have been able to obtain this soul bone."

Lu Yu waved his hand and said with a smile: "What are you thanking me for? We are partners.

Let's go, there are more challenges waiting for us in the deep forest."

Ah Qiong looked at Lu Yu, a complicated look flashed in his eyes, and he murmured: "This kid... is really interesting."

Deep in the Starry Forest, the night was as dark as ink, the sound of the wind was mixed with low beast roars, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

Lu Yu, clad in a black robe, stood in a clearing in the woods, at his feet the corpse of a soul beast he had killed with a single blow. Dozens of soul masters around him stared at him with complex emotions and fear. (End of Chapter)
