Even without cheats, we must survive the apocalypse

However, Lu Mu was calm and composed. He pulled Feng Yan'er up and walked straight towards the futon.

Feng You didn't say anything because he had already made his decision and didn't need any further persuasion.

Lu Mu and Feng Yan'er sat down on the cushions one after another, their hands clasped together, as if nothing could separate them.

It's a big gamble.

If he loses the bet, he may lose a lot.

First of all, he no longer possessed a body as strong as that of the demon clan, nor did he have the magical powers of the Holy Phoenix. Naturally, his title of Holy Phoenix Prince was no longer worthy of its name.

But if he wins, he will be even more powerful.

"In that case, let's start the soul raising..."

Feng You's residual soul disappeared, and the intricate patterns on the soul-raising platform all lit up with red light, as if countless forces were rushing towards the two of them. Now everything seemed a little calm, but soon, this secret realm filled with fairy air began to shake.

In the past, the Soul Ascension Platform required a Nine-Winged Holy Phoenix with high cultivation to trigger it.

But now, it can only be activated by the power of the secret realm itself.

A golden glow gradually spread around Lu Mu and Feng Yan'er.

In an instant, a huge force seemed to sense something and rushed into Lu Mu's body frantically.

……

Lu Mu felt like he was going through the process of having his memory searched again.

Because he was confused for a long time, when he finally woke up, he was standing on a high platform in a palace. He didn't know whether it was day or night. A huge crack appeared in the sky, and countless black shadows fell from it, and there was also a huge meteorite burning and whistling to the ground.

Lu Mu walked to the edge of the platform and looked down. He found that this place was very prosperous. It was a huge city, and he was like a man in power, looking down on his subjects from a supreme position.

But he soon discovered that he was just standing where others should be.

"Lu family boy."

He turned around and saw Feng Qingluo walking towards him.

She looked familiar, because the last time I saw Feng Qingluo was just over a year ago. That charming, proud and noble lady briefly showed up in her human form.

Her whole body was red.

She was wearing a gorgeous, intricate red dress, her long hair was like blazing red flames, and her eyes and thin lips were the same fiery red.

It is not difficult to imagine that one day, Feng Yan'er will be like her mother—should be as hot as karmic fire, but look at everything with pride.

"Senior Qingluo?"

Lu Mu cupped his hands. Although he knew that she was dead and this world was probably just a memory of her past, he still had to perform his duties with courtesy.

"long time no see."

"It's not that long actually. Just over a year is nothing to you or to me."

Feng Qingluo walked up to him, a faint smile on her lips, "The last bit of consciousness I left in my phoenix bones was actually stimulated through this half-baked soul-raising platform."

Lu Mu listened to every bit of these polite words.

Because he had other questions in his mind.

"Haha!" Feng Qingluo suddenly laughed softly, "You are right, I did take this opportunity to take a good look at your memory just now."

Lu Mu remained silent.

It turned out that his feeling just now was not wrong, he was being "soul-searched" again.

"Don't worry, I just want to see how my daughter is doing, and whether you have fulfilled our agreement..."

"And you did pretty well."

Feng Qingluo paused, "Of course, if you don't do it well, there's nothing I can do."

Lu Mu didn't know whether he should relax or continue to keep his body tense and act serious enough.

Because Feng Qingluo must have seen a lot of things. To the person whose soul was searched, soul searching was just a momentary trance, but to the person who saw his memory, everything was clear to him, unless there was some protection mechanism in his memory to prevent being explored...

"Oh, there are restrictions set by the Heavenly Dao in your memory, so there are many things I haven't seen, don't worry."

For a moment, Lu Mu thought Feng Qingluo knew how to read minds.

She even knew exactly what was going on in her mind.

Chapter 94: Feng Qingluo's final help

Feng Qingluo seemed to be smiling, and Lu Mu could see the curve of her lips, but when he looked at her majestic phoenix eyes, he could not find any emotional fluctuations.

This feeling was so subtle that Lu Mu felt strange.

But perhaps it is due to her identity. Feng Qingluo is the great demon lord of the Ancient Dynasty of Ten Thousand Demons, equivalent to the empress. She is the kind of person who is awe-inspiring without even being angry and has ambitions to dominate.

But there is one sentence that Lu Mu really cares about.

"Heaven has set a ban in my memory?"

"Ah."

Feng Qingluo stepped forward, stretched out her left index finger, and tapped Lu Mu's forehead: "I thought you knew."

"I don't understand it." Lu Mu admitted.

The touch is very real.

Her fingers were a little cold, unlike her warm brows.

But these are just projections of consciousness in his mind. They cannot be said to be false, but they are definitely not real enough to be tangible.

"Well, then you don't have to worry about it. God has his own reasons for doing things, and we can't guess them." Feng Qingluo retracted her fingers.

He pursed his lips.

It seemed that the heavens had done a lot of things to him and given him many opportunities since he was born.

I am indeed the one who carries the destiny.

It’s a pity that Lu Mu, who used to be like that, eventually became just food in the spirit beast’s stomach.

Lu Mu and Feng Qingluo stood side by side on this high platform. Under their feet, there was a magnificent city. He knew where this was. It was the only place where the Great Demon Lord of the Ancient Dynasty of Ten Thousand Demons would be in charge, and that was the Imperial City.

This is the imperial city in Feng Qingluo’s memory, the imperial city that has not yet been destroyed.

Of course, it will be gone soon.

Because a huge crack has been torn in the sky, it won't be long before disaster falls on the imperial city.

"I just saw a lot of things from your memory... You seem to have killed some 'outsiders'?"

Feng Qingluo's words attracted Lu Mu's attention.

After a while, he nodded.

"I've killed some."

"how do you feel?"

"More disgusting than some of the monsters I've seen."

"That's how extraterrestrial magic machines work. I once felt the same way as you did."

Feng Qingluo waved her hand lightly, and the scenery before her eyes seemed to speed up the passage of time. Within a few seconds, the scenery in the sky became more and more terrifying. The imperial city where they were had been wrapped up in a defensive barrier, and outside the imperial city was in chaos. In the chaos, countless phantoms were on full alert.

These are all memory projections.

In Feng Qingluo's memory, she was standing here, facing the monsters that broke through the barriers outside the Xuantian Realm and rushed in.

And those monsters have already pounced on us.

Dense extraterrestrial magic machines swept across from the ground and the sky, destroying everything in their path, whether living or dead.

And they just ran into the defensive barrier of the imperial city.

……

The extraterrestrial magic machine is seeking death.

The monsters that crashed into the Imperial City's defense formation were the lowest level of magical mechanical creatures. They were grotesque in shape, resembling both humans and beasts. The only thing they had in common was that they all spewed out dark turbid liquid. Their flesh and blood were also extremely strange, because under the squirming and swollen black rotten flesh, one could see the "skeleton" that supported the activities of these magical mechanical creatures, which was iron-colored.

Like a puppet.

Just like "apparatus".

But they do have the same emotions as living beings.

Therefore, ten thousand years ago, this group of monsters were called "Extraterrestrial Demonic Machines".

They came from outside the Xuantian Realm, breaking through the sky, and slaughtering everything in the world like crazy, no matter what kind of creature it was, just like the most evil bone-eroding poison.

"Most of these monsters are dead."

Feng Qingluo watched all this indifferently, watching hundreds of thousands, even millions of low-level magic machines die outside the barrier.

"But the strongest ones are still alive."

Lu Mu nodded: "I know."

Soon, a huge monster appeared outside the barrier.

Low-level magic machines are still courting death, but most of them do not choose to rush through this defensive barrier, but choose to wait until a magic machine creature that can truly destroy the Imperial City barrier appears.

Now, it's here.

This monster looked very much like a manta ray, except that it was a thousand feet huge, and had many tentacles that were hundreds of feet long. It opened its huge mouth, and a thick black light gathered in it, and then suddenly erupted!

With a loud bang, the imperial city's barrier collapsed.

The memory ends here.

Everything came to a standstill, and the huge black light that even tore through space also froze in mid-air.

Feng Qingluo sighed and said, "I've shown you enough."

Lu Mu lowered his eyes to hide his expression.

She looked a little tired. "The Extraterritorial Magic Machine wants to kill all living beings, so what we haven't completed can only be left to you to complete."

Some slightly heavy words.

Feng Qingluo turned her head and looked towards the sky in the distance.

"Tell me about my daughter."

"Ok?"

"The terms I agreed with you were that I would give you my Phoenix Bone, and you would take care of her for a while, and then let her go... However, you took care of her even more... intimately than I thought."

This time, Lu Mu was very sure that he saw Feng Qingluo smile.

Although the smile was a little faint, it was more like a teasing smile.

“She’s very pretty.”

Lu Mu didn't hide his thoughts. "It smells good too. It's very comfortable to hold it while sleeping."

At times like this, he was always surprisingly honest and straightforward, telling her directly that he had feelings for her daughter, and that he wanted to get to know her better.

Moreover, he knew that he was speaking the truth.

Feng Yan'er is indeed very beautiful and smells very good, and she also acts like a girl who asks for her mother's love. When Lu Mu holds her in his arms, he feels very special.

Who doesn’t like to be a face lover?

"Holding me while sleeping..."

The corner of Feng Qingluo's eye twitched fiercely, and she retracted her gaze from a distance and looked at Lu Mu, "At least, I think you are a man with endurance, and you are not bad looking too."

What he meant should be that Feng Yan'er is still a virgin.

In fact, it’s not that he can’t tolerate it, mainly because this kind of thing can’t be rushed.

Moreover, Feng Qingluo inadvertently revealed the fact that she is actually a beauty lover... This should be human nature, right?

Lu Mu smiled: "Is this a compliment?"

"Not counting."
