Chapter 1437: The Might of Submerged Cloud

Although Wu Yu wasn't the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord, he was using his identity.

He was still the biological son of the Chakravarti Ghostly King after all. Having been treated in this manner, Wu Yu wondered to what extent the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord had annoyed his father to be so resented by him......

Obviously, this wasn't within Wu Yu's control. At this moment, the third tier Great Void Ghostly Realm Dong Shen Ghostly King made his move.

Wu Yu knew that no matter how strong he was currently, he could at most match a first tier ghostly king in battle. Against a third tier ghostly king, even the Xuanyang Emperor Lord and the others would be easily overwhelmed!

Wu Yu had seen him in battle previously from the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord's memories. Even with seven to eight ghostly kings at the level of the 10,000 Bones Ghostly King and the Amethyst Soul Ghostly King teaming up, they were all defeated one after another by the Dong Shen Ghostly King. 

His great void immortal treasure was the Eternal Massacre City. It was dark, creepy, and brimming with murderous intent. From what Wu Yu understood, countless ghostly immortals were imprisoned within and refined over tens of thousands of years to become killer souls. These souls were under his control and engaged in murder for eternity. 

At this moment, the Eternal Massacre City was swooping down towards Wu Yu. Endless murderous intent coalesced to form a blade, hanging over Wu Yu's head and cornering him. A ghostly king of his status would naturally adopt a dominating stance against Wu Yu!

Seeing how ruthless his move was, it didn't feel like he was facing his "young master" at all.

"You better stay still obediently, or you will suffer, fool!"

The Dong Shen Ghostly King scoffed disdainfully. When the Eternal Massacre City flipped over, it was similar to the City of 10,000 Swords and Dragons. All the buildings were transformed into giant swords!

What was different was the black gas that circled the swords. Blood-red, ominous vibes were slithering like venomous snakes, waiting for the moment the blades ripped Wu Yu's body apart. When that happened, they would gush into Wu Yu's body, giving him an experience worse than death.

The first instant the Eternal Massacre City suppressed Wu Yu, Wu Yu felt terror. This was the horror that his opponent brought with the superior cultivation level and strength!

Moreover, the great void immortal treasure was seething in alarming murderous intent. Compared to Wu Yu's Lasting Blood Banner, it wasn't just a level better.

Wu Yu was prepared to take a risk before the Dong Shen Ghostly King by casting the same escaping ability as the Chifeng Immortal Lord. There was a certain possibility that his identity would be doubted. However, Wu Yu had no other solution.  Otherwise, if he was imprisoned, he would no longer be in the race.

However, at this very moment, he had a different discovery!

The Eternal Massacre City indeed made Wu Yu feel threatened. Moreover, it looked extremely dominating and overwhelming.

However, Wu Yu was surprised to feel that something was lacking.

When he glanced with his Eyes of Fire and Gold, he didn't understand at the first instant. However, looking at it again more closely, he could roughly see that the Maelstrom Silver Dagger Sphere seemed to have a certain level of suppression against the Dong Shen Ghostly King.

As a result, his strength couldn't be utilized in full!

Wu Yu was delighted. 

"Indeed, the epochal immortal design has restrictions on ghostly immortals, so they couldn't fully exhibit their full strength! Obviously, this restriction might just be on those at the Great Void Ghostly Realm. People like the Xuanyang Emperor Lord might still be able to move freely."

The ghostly kings were a group that far exceeded the level of most people in this contest. They held a huge advantage and disrupted the fairness of the competition. As such, if they were restricted so they couldn't exhibit their full strength, that was entirely reasonable as well.

"You seemed to have weakened substantially." Despite the impending the 

    

Eternal Massacre City above him, Wu Yu was dauntless.

"You have a good eye to see that. However, it's enough to take care of a brat like you,"  the Dong Shen Ghostly King scoffed disdainfully.

After verifying that his opponent's strength was weakened, Wu Yu was no longer in a hurry to escape. He would like to see if he could take down someone like the Dong Shen Ghostly King within the Maelstrom Silver Dagger Sphere.

If he could, he would have a greater advantage!

He responded to the Dong Shen Ghostly King with the Lasting Blood Banner in his hands! His strength wasn't affected in the slightest. Although the atmosphere was filled with silver daggers, his opponent was also in the same environment.

As the Eternal Massacre City fell, he rolled up the Lasting Blood Banner into a long. blood-red spear. With the support of his robust physical body strength, he lunged forward. All of a sudden, the Lasting Blood heavenly rule of the Lasting Blood Banner coalesced into an edge, soared into the sky and sank onto the Eternal Massacre City that was crashing down on him!

Ding!

A deafening bang shook the world. The collision and ear-piercing screech from the clash of the two great void immortal treasures reverberated outwards for an unknown distance.

Wu Yu had a better sense now!

Although the Lasting Blood Banner couldn't penetrate the Eternal Massacre City, he had neutralized the suppression of the other party and knocked the Eternal Massacre City back!

The Eternal Massacre City flipped several times in the air before landing in front of the Dong Shen Ghostly King!

"How is this possible!?" The Dong Shen Ghostly King's eyes widened so much that they almost fell off.

He definitely had not expected a day where the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord would be able to deflect an attack from him, even though he could only use a portion of his strength due to the constant restrictions imposed by the Maelstrom Silver Dagger Sphere!

Holding the Lasting Blood Banner in his hands and letting the banner move with the wind, Wu Yu remarked sheepishly, "It seems like you have been spending your energy on other areas recently, Uncle Dong Shen. Why do you feel so weak and powerless? If you are thinking of using this level of strength to capture me, I can tell you that you have a long way to go. Is it that age is catching up and you are getting a little too weak? Are the aunts in your residence filled with grievances these days? Do you need your nephew here to help?"

The more he acted like this, the lower the chance others would suspect his identity.

The Dong Shen Ghostly King almost spat blood upon hearing him.

For a moment, he was blinded by fury and almost wanted to kill Wu Yu. These words were testament to Wu Yu's shamelessness. Moreover, he dared to say them outright. This was no longer an issue of guts, but one who had lost all rationality.

"If your father hears you, don't expect to see even a living creature for the next hundred thousand years." The Dong Shen Ghostly King was seething in anger.

"Uncle Dong Shen, stop kidding me. I'm standing right here now. Can you handle me?"

"If we weren't here, I'd make you go down on your knees and beg for mercy with a single breath!" the Dong Shen Ghostly King berated.

"You have grown weaker, but your ability to boast has definitely improved," Wu Yu replied with a smirk. 

"How dare you!" He could no longer endure being humiliated by a junior. He struck abruptly and controlled the Eternal Massacre City once again. At the same time, he used his mystique, and one could see his body transforming violently. The three-colored flames crept down from his head to cover his entire body, seemingly torching him to charcoal-black. However, he became more terrifying, as though he was a ghostly immortal made of lava rocks. 

Wu Yu was fearless and secretly used the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth. Having raised the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth to a new realm, his control was getting more and more perfect. It was especially so after mastering the Dao of Big and Small, adding variations while controlling the mystique. For example, Wu Yu could increase his physical strength to the most frightening level at the expense of a decline in speed. However, as for the size of his body, he could choose not to increase in size to several hundred zhang. He could even maintain his original size but couldn't reduce his size further.

If he wanted to shrink his body, he could increase his speed and lower his physical strength. This was proof that he was getting more familiar with the core of the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth. This mystique was never about the changes to one's size, but the variation of speed and strength.

Although there weren't visible changes to his body, his physical strength had been raised to a terrorizing level!

Robust Vajra autonomous realm power exploded and amplified his disposition to a level that would allow him to overpower his opponent. Through his previous test, Wu Yu had verified that his opponent could only exhibit strength at a level similar to the Amethyst Soul Ghostly King! 

This was an opportunity! When would he find the opportunity to overwhelm a third tier ghostly king again?

The key was that the other party didn't want Wu Yu to escape. As soon as Wu Yu used the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth, the Dong Shen Ghostly King charged ahead. Together with the great void immortal treasure, he could possibly cast four heavenly rules at the same time!

Bam!

A punch came straight out at the first instant. Black flames surged from the fist, and wherever he crossed, even the silver daggers were frozen into black frost! Following a light shiver, they were reduced to dust. Even the Qian Kun space was set on fire!

This was one of his heavenly rules, the Icy Flame Heavenly Rule!

This attack carried his fury, and he was no longer just thinking of imprisoning Wu Yu. Since he had cast this heavenly rule, it was clear he wanted to teach Wu Yu a lesson and make him experience something worse than death!

Part of the reason why he dared to do so was because he could clearly see that the Chakravarti Ghostly King had basically given up on the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord.

At this point, Wu Yu's physical strength was raised to the limit. When the other party charged forward, it was like meeting an edge directly!

"Violent Art!"

Explosive extreme strength amplified by Wu Yu's Violent Art pushed his physical strength to an unprecedented level. At this point, the extreme strength was no longer under full control. At the same time, Wu Yu had the Somersault Cloud fused into his body!

"Submerged Cloud Seal!"

Forming seals with his hands swiftly, the afterimages of his hand eventually gathered onto the palm of his right hand. He then pushed his palm forward. His forearm and palm seemed to vanish from sight.

The truth was that the palm had entered the void. Immediately after, Wu Yu gathered all the strength in his body to push out the Submerged Cloud Seal in his strongest state! Voidquakes reverberated and shattered the space around him. The Dong Shen Ghostly King happened to enter the range of the voidquake just in front of Wu Yu. 

Weng!

A large area in front of Wu Yu was shattered from within, collapsing into darkness together with the Dong Shen Ghostly King.

"You aren't him!" The Dong Shen Ghostly King had initially thought it was just the shattering of space. He wasn't bothered by it, but he suddenly sensed everything collapsing. The lethal threat dawned on him, and at this moment, his eyes met Wu Yu's. The indifferent and cold attitude engulfed him in fear, making him shudder......
