World version update

Chapter 204 [Version Change Value: 30]

As Lu Yan finished his words, countless golden rays of light poured down from the sky like a river.

That is the recognition of the Heavenly Dao at the end of the world. Every ray of sunlight contains the power of Heavenly Dao's merits. As the sunlight flows, it seems as if billions of stars are shining on earth.

The Human Emperor Banner slowly rose in this vast vision, auspicious purple aura lingered around it, and countless Taoist rhymes flowed through it, blessing this newborn magical treasure of heavenly merit.

Lu Yan was not surprised at all. As early as after the Heavenly Dao of the End Times took the initiative to intervene in the casting of the Heavenly Dao Merit Magical Weapon, Lu Yan already understood the purpose of the Heavenly Dao of the End Times.

Forging a magical weapon of Heavenly Merit that surpasses the limit, which can even be said to be a unique magical weapon of merit in all versions of the worlds, is a huge consumption even for the Heavenly Dao of one world.

Although the Doomsday Heavenly Dao has gained the upper hand in the confrontation with the Supreme Will at this moment, the extraordinary cornerstone of the Doomsday version is ultimately in the hands of the Supreme Will, which is invincible.

In the past few months, Lu Yan has slaughtered tens of millions of zombies and saved dozens of gathering places of survivors, seemingly completely reversing this doomsday situation.

But all this is ultimately limited to this area. Looking at the entire apocalypse, there are at least more than one billion zombies, and the part killed by Lu Yan is less than one-tenth of the size of the apocalypse.

The foundation of the Supreme Will has not been lost, and with a huge number of zombies under his control, it is possible that he can make a comeback.

On the other hand, the control of the Doomsday Heavenly Dao over the extraordinary beings is not as strong as the Supreme Will's control over the zombies. Even the extraordinary beings under his command are affected by the Supreme Will.

In the past month or so, Lu Yan has killed twelve ninth-level transcendents and hundreds of fifth-level transcendents, which is also a huge blow to the strength of the human survivors.

Although the Doomsday Heavenly Dao has the upper hand, the forces it mobilized cannot eradicate the disaster of this version invasion, and will only allow the Supreme Will to drag the situation into a protracted war.

Once the moonlight spiritual energy changes, the situation may be reversed in an instant.

Faced with such a predicament, the Doomsday Heavenly Dao can only place all its hopes on Lu Yan, an outsider who has frustrated the Supreme Will twice.

Especially Lu Yan's performance when facing the natural disaster of zombies made the Doomsday Heavenly Dao make up its mind.

The 100th round of the Merit Wheel that broke through the boundary between heaven and earth and the huge price spent to help Lu Yan forge the Heavenly Dao Merit Magical Treasure were all ways for the Heavenly Dao of the last days to show its sincerity.

After taking over the magical weapon of Heavenly Merit, Lu Yan also understood the intention of Heavenly Dao in the last days, so he named it the Human Emperor Banner.

In the apocalyptic version, the yin and yang are out of balance, and zombies occupy most of the territory of the apocalyptic version and have almost become the dominant force in the version.

Lu Yan first helped the No. 73 gathering place to rebuild civilization, and then named the Heavenly Dao Merit Magical Treasure the Human Emperor Banner, intending to demonstrate the legitimacy of the human race, which was also a response to the Heavenly Dao at the end of the world.

Cleansing the universe and rectifying the ways of humanity is exactly the order that Heaven is pursuing in the last days.

After receiving Lu Yan's guarantee, the Heaven of the End Times bestowed another gift.

As the strange phenomena in the sky slowly faded away, Lu Yan could sense a deep sense of fatigue in that great gaze of his.

Holding the Human Emperor Banner again, a huge amount of information poured into Lu Yan's mind, making him understand that this time, the gift from Heaven at the end of the world was on the Soul Continent.

The original Soul Continent was just a part of the soul world created by the Intelligent God that Lu Yan stole with the help of the Heavenly Dao Code.

Without the order derived from the intelligent God, the Soul Continent was just a huge soul creation, which was used by Lu Yan to smash people several times, relying on the huge size of the Soul Continent to destroy their souls.

Without a doubt, this is the least efficient use of the Soul Continent.

However, Lu Yan had not completed the sacrifice to the Soul Continent at that time, so he could only use it in this way.

At present, the Human Emperor Banner has become a magic weapon of Heavenly Merit, and the sacrifice and refinement of the Soul Continent has also been completed with the assistance of Heavenly Merit. Lu Yan already has control over the Soul Continent.

If one wants to further develop the Soul Continent, the first and most important thing is to transform the Soul Continent from an independent continent into a small world integrated into the Soul Banner.

In terms of size alone, the Soul Continent has completely surpassed most small worlds, but it is missing one thing.

Since this is heaven and earth, there must be rules and order.

The Soul Continent, as a soul creation forcibly stripped away by Lu Yan, has no rules or order at all.

It is undoubtedly an extremely difficult task to establish rules and order from scratch. At least it is impossible with Lu Yan's strength at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

However, this part of the gift bestowed by the Heavenly Dao at the end of the world allowed many mysterious Dao rhymes to evolve into the rudiments of order in the Soul Continent.

The origin of this embryonic form of order is the giant black egg that was transformed from the first blessing of heaven at the end of the world.

Above the Soul Continent, the giant black egg that gathered the light of supreme will and the blessing of heaven was like a black sun, and order was weaving the rules of heaven and earth in its embryonic form.

Although it is just a prototype and cannot support a complete small world, it is a breakthrough from nothing to something.

Later on, Lu Yan only needs to continue to fill in enough rules and orders according to this framework, which will be enough to deduce the Soul Continent into a real small world and make the Human Emperor Banner go one step further.

By then, the power of the Human Emperor Banner will not even be inferior to the legendary magical treasure of the cave heaven, and the originally false underworld will also be able to have a real domain foundation.

After figuring out the reason, Lu Yan realized how great an opportunity this final gift from Heaven in the last days was.

At this moment, the Doomsday Heavenly Dao, showing a bit of fatigue, slowly withdrew its gaze, and the world before it returned to its former appearance.

The golden sun from the sky, the great sun of merit, the miraculous work of nature, it seems that nothing has ever appeared.

Only the aura of the Ghost King that stretched for hundreds of miles continued endlessly, completely changing from its former eerie and strange appearance to a majestic and righteous aura of black and gold that suppressed the millions of zombies below.

Below the natural disaster and the tide of zombies, the ghost soldiers and generals who had undergone the transformation of the Human Emperor Banner were slowly advancing the front line.

Although they have not yet broken through the foundation-building stage, the strength of the Yin soldiers has already improved qualitatively just by undergoing the baptism of heaven's merits.

The aura of the Human Emperor lingering around his body is blessed by the merits of the Heavenly Dao and can easily resist the extraordinary abilities of the extraordinary zombies. Even the Corpse King in the Foundation Establishment Realm will find it difficult to shake the armor of the Yin Soldiers.

The soul-catching rope in his hand has lost its former eerie look, and the collision of metal and iron when the chain is swung can break all extraordinary laws.

The ghost soldiers held soul-catching ropes that shone with black and gold light, and lined up in an orderly manner. Countless chains trembled in the void, like living divine snakes, and each of them exuded a magnificent spiritual power. When this underworld army swung its weapons, the sound of countless chains trembling dragon roars echoed between heaven and earth.

The soul-catching rope broke through the air, weaving a magnificent web of death under the moonlight. Each chain contained the power of heavenly virtue, and wherever it passed, the rotten flesh and blood instantly vaporized, and the filthy souls were captured alive. Under this power, groups of zombies were annihilated, turning into bones scattered all over the ground.

Every time the battle line advances, a plain is formed by piles of bones.

On the other side, the ghost generals were surrounded by the black-gold aura of the Emperor of Man, and the Yin horses formed a battle formation like a sharp sword, tearing through the surging corpse tide. The war spears in their hands were emitting a deep black-gold glow, and the natural disaster corpse tide was trembling wherever the spear tips pointed.

When a huge abomination roared and rushed over, the ghost general's aura of the emperor exploded, tearing the horrible monster into pieces. The flesh-mountain zombies that had merged with a large amount of flesh and blood collapsed under the siege of the ghost general, turning into piles of rotten flesh ruins.

Wherever the battle array advanced, even those extraordinary zombies with supernatural powers were powerless in front of the underworld army that controlled the merits of heaven.

The promotion of the Human Emperor Banner has multiplied the combat power of the Underworld Legion, but more importantly is the infinite potential that the Underworld Legion represents from now on.

One hundred meters, two hundred meters, one kilometer, two kilometers
The battle line continued to advance towards the barn plain, far away from gathering place No. 73. The zombie kings hiding among the zombies looked extremely ugly.

At first, thousands of ghost soldiers killed the Golden Core Corpse King in an instant, which made them afraid to act rashly. They wanted to use ordinary zombies to wear down the foundation of the ghost soldiers and ghost generals. But it was this idea that led them into the abyss of failure.

The ghost soldiers and generals seem to possess endless energy and infinite yin energy, and can slaughter all zombies at will.

Even if their souls are damaged in the war, the surrounding Human Emperor's aura can quickly replenish their damaged souls.

This killing speed lasted for a full half day, and millions of zombies fell under the rope.

And more extraordinary zombies also died in the ghost generals' charge in the battle formation.

During this period, there were times when the zombie king tried desperately to create a gap so that the natural disaster zombie tide could exert its true power.

However, these corpse kings would often be surrounded and killed by the ghost soldiers and generals the moment they appeared, and the aura of the Human Emperor showed unprecedented suppression, which could kill the Golden Core Corpse King in an instant.

This situation finally made the Jindan Corpse Kings feel fear.

Finally, a Jindan Corpse King chose to escape.

Although they were somehow inspired by the Supreme Will to join the natural disaster of zombies, the influence of the Supreme Will is also limited, especially for these Jindan Corpse Kings who stand at the top of the doomsday version.

In the face of life and death crisis, even in the name of the supreme will, it may not be possible to make these unruly corpse kings surrender.

Not to mention that Lu Yan blocked the moonlight spiritual energy, which made the Supreme Will fail. The loss of the influence of the Supreme Will further increased the fear in the hearts of the Jindan Corpse Kings.

Deep in the earth, a Jindan Corpse King sneaked into the ground and quickly fled towards the outside of the barn plain, without even the other Jindan Corpse Kings noticing.

Only Lu Yan, who was high in the sky, glanced indifferently at the distant earth, and the silent fluctuations within the Soul Flag began to spread.

After fleeing for hundreds of kilometers in one breath, the Jindan Corpse King finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He slowly rose from deep underground and tried to check the situation in the direction of the barn plain.

At this moment, a strange young man in a black robe and with bloody hair was standing on the ground, staring at him quietly.

Seeing the Jindan Corpse King emerge from deep underground, a strange smile appeared on the face of the weird young man.

“If my Lord had not told me to wait until I appeared before the people to prevent affecting their understanding of ghosts and gods, I would have killed you rubbish long ago.

But since you took the initiative to leave the battlefield, that's just what I want."

The pupils of the Golden Core Corpse King trembled, and he said with fear on his face: "You are the Blood God!!!"

The Blood God slowly stretched out his right hand, and countless tiny strands of hair intertwined in the void, transforming into an incomparably huge blood-red palm.

"If you got it right, here's a reward!"

The next moment, the bloody hand overturned and the earth erupted with roars.

In the southwest direction, another Jindan Corpse King who hid his body and escaped also met his opponent.

The giant spirit in golden armor rubbed his temple in distress and said helplessly to the open space in front of him:
"Actually, I am a civilian, just like that assembly line worker. I am not good at fighting."

In the open space, the Jindan Corpse King stood still.

He clearly has a physical body, but even light can only penetrate his body. Without the reflection of light, the normal naked eye cannot discern his existence at all, making him appear to have a strange feeling of not existing in the material world.

The rotten pupils of the Jindan Corpse King trembled slightly, and he asked in a hoarse voice:

"How did you find me? Even the power of the soul can only penetrate my body. No one can see me."

"Who said I saw you?"

The giant spirit laughed, and in an instant there seemed to be an endless stream of information flowing in his eyes, and everything in the world turned into infinite intertwined information in his eyes.

He pointed to the world and whispered, "They saw it."

The next second, the giant spirit's body suddenly swelled and turned into a huge monster, smashing down with a huge fist towards the Jindan Corpse King.

The body of the Jindan Corpse King became ethereal in an attempt to avoid the attack, but the next moment, information flowed in the eyes of the Giant Spirit God, and the entire world seemed to reject the Jindan Corpse King, squeezing him out of the ethereal space.

Such an unexpected situation didn't even give him time to dodge, and he could only take the giant punch of the giant spirit.

Bones that were harder than diamonds shattered in an instant, and the gathered extraordinary power also collapsed in the face of the absolute crushing force.

In the last second before his death, only one thought came into the Jindan Corpse King's mind.

"You call this a civilian job?"

The same battle took place in every corner of the Granary Plains, far away from human gathering places. The ghosts and gods no longer had to worry about exposing the reputation they had created, and could use any means they wanted.

In terms of realm, ghosts and gods are both in the early stage of the Golden Core, just like the Golden Core Corpse King. Except for the super-special existence like the God of the Sky Abyss, there is no obvious gap between the other ghosts and gods and the Golden Core Corpse King if they are not assisted by ghost soldiers and generals.

But with the promotion of the Human Emperor Banner, all this was broken.

The ghosts and gods shed the body of the Soul Banner Master's soul and began to possess a hint of true divine essence.

Although the ghosts and gods at this moment are far from being called true gods, it is precisely this slight difference in the essence of divinity that allows them to possess absolute suppression far beyond their peers.

Using divinity to control his own innate magical powers can not only create endless changes, but his status can also easily crush the Golden Core Corpse King.

Not to mention that these ghosts and gods possess some of the power of Heaven's merits and can also manipulate the aura of the Human Emperor, so it is easy for them to kill enemies of higher levels.

With all the escaped Jindan Corpse Kings being wiped out, the fate of the natural disaster corpse tide was already doomed.

This final harvest lasted for three days and three nights, and more than 20 million zombies were slaughtered.

Under the witness of the people in gathering place No. 73, everything was settled as the soul of the last zombie was captured.

Above the sky, Lu Yan raised the corner of his mouth.

"The key to breaking the deadlock is finally in our hands!"

In front of him, a prompt popped up on the update interface.
