They were extremely tense as well.
Gong Cheng walked up to the wall, looked at the battle that was still ongoing, and said to the assistant beside him without turning his head, "Haven't notified Lu Yu to retreat yet?"
The assistant quickly replied, "Several Martial Cultivators present have already exhausted their Spiritual Qi and cannot approach the battlefield. Even Martial Cultivators of the Qi Control Realm cannot withstand the aftermath of the battle's explosion, and there's no way to transmit the message to him."
"If you can't get close, then shout!" Gong Cheng said loudly, "You must get the message into his ears."
"Yes, I will arrange it now."
Not long after, those Martial Cultivators of the Qi Control Realm on the wall shouted with all their might towards Lu Yu, telling him to retreat and leave the battlefield.
The noise generated from the fight with the Slaughterer was too loud for Lu Yu to hear outside sounds at all. Moreover, his mind was highly focused, and even if he occasionally heard a few "noise," he would disregard them.
His entire attention was now on the Slaughterer; even a slight distraction might allow the Slaughterer a chance to severely injure him.
Feeling the power within him waning, Lu Yu gathered all his strength and concentrated it on his right leg, kicking fiercely at the Slaughterer's head.
Blocked by the Slaughterer's arm, the arm was broken by the kick, the Holy Power concentrated on the right leg failed to pour into the Slaughterer's head, only able to infuse into the arm that was hit.
Boom! Half of the Slaughterer's body was blown apart, and now its body was riddled with wounds radiating pure white light.
Although the demonic energy within the Slaughterer was constantly nullifying the Holy Power, during the battle, Lu Yu relentlessly infused Holy Power into its body, preventing it from truly purging the Holy Power inside, greatly suppressing its ability to recover.
Having fought until now, Lu Yu already felt exhausted, with the Blood Burning Secret Technique nearing its end. The Slaughterer was left with only one arm, and wounds shining brightly covered its body, like a battered doll with a flashlight inside.
Light leaked from the battered parts of the body.
After dodging a punch from the Slaughterer, Lu Yu quickly retracted his fist, positioning himself behind the Slaughterer, concentrating all his strength on his fist, and slammed fiercely onto the Slaughterer's back.
Bang~ A slight dent appeared in the flesh of the Slaughterer's back, Lu Yu felt as if he was hitting resilient rubber, and all the force got absorbed.
"Damn it! The Blood Burning Secret Technique has ended!" At the moment his fist hit the Slaughterer, Lu Yu's entire body sent out signals of weakness and fatigue, and his strength sharply decreased.
The Slaughterer turned around and swept its arm horizontally. Lu Yu hurriedly retracted his arm to block in front, and his arm was hit, causing excruciating pain, and he was blown away by an unstoppable force.
Boom! Bang bang bang~ Crashing to the ground, after rolling a few times, Lu Yu propped up the ground with one hand and bounced up, standing firm.
The Slaughterer's figure rushed towards him like a charging rhino, the surrounding dust was squeezed away by the airflow generated from its charge.
Lu Yu leapt with all his might to dodge the Slaughterer's charge, but the Slaughterer's remaining arm grabbed his ankle, pulling him back.
The moment he was grabbed, Lu Yu turned back, his legs entwined around the Slaughterer's arm, his hands twisted the Slaughterer's head, using all his strength to try to break that arm.
Unfortunately, with the Blood Burning Secret Technique nearing its end, Lu Yu's power was greatly reduced, unable to twist off the Slaughterer's arm, instead, his own ankle was crushed into a pulp by the Slaughterer.
Feeling the pain from his ankle, the creaking sound from the bones, Lu Yu's forehead instantly broke out in cold sweat, and his mind's Spiritual Power was pushed to the limit, causing a flood of Holy Power to surge from the Holy Light Seed.
Crack~ The Holy Light Seed made a crisp sound, Lu Yu's arms glowed with dazzling white light, then he forced them into the Slaughterer's injuries.
The arm shining with Holy Light scorched the Slaughterer's flesh, making a sizzling sound, as the Holy Power surged from Lu Yu's arms into the Slaughterer's body, rampaging through its body, purifying a large amount of demonic energy.
Due to the purification impact of Holy Power entering the body, the Slaughterer's arm strength weakened, and under Lu Yu's full force twist, he sacrificed one of his own legs to twist off the Slaughterer's arm.
Sizzling~ The hand shining with Holy Light pierced into the base of the Slaughterer's arm, tearing the arm off its body.
Bam~ Both the arm and Lu Yu crashed to the ground.
Before hitting the ground, Lu Yu slammed one hand onto the ground and stood up in a one-legged stance like a rooster. His left leg's ankle had already been crushed into pulp by the Slaughterer, and if not for sufficiently sturdy bones, it would have snapped.
But even so, the left foot was unusable, the muscles had turned to mush, completely lacking any force.
"I lost a foot, you lost all your arms..." Lu Yu stared at the Slaughterer.
The Slaughterer's upper body was bare, all six arms had been destroyed, two of its three heads had been demolished, seemingly losing all its combat weapons.
Furthermore, there was Holy Power infused by Lu Yu inside the Slaughterer's body, preventing it from regenerating its arms.
Rip~ The Slaughterer's back split open, and a purple-black spiked tentacle extended from behind, making Lu Yu's face change instantly, becoming incredibly grim.
"Can't regenerate, how did it generate this tentacle?"
The tentacle stabbed towards Lu Yu, who dodged desperately, still letting the sharp tentacle leave several wounds on his body.
While dodging, Lu Yu realized the origin of this tentacle. It wasn't regeneration but flesh transformation, the flesh within the Slaughterer's back wound disappeared, turning into a tentacle, the wound never healed.
Lu Yu dodged the Slaughterer's attacks, suddenly, the Slaughterer rushed towards Lu Yu's back, not attacking him, retracting the tentacle, and inserted it fiercely into its own body, fishing out a key.
"Damn!" Lu Yu cursed inwardly.
Using his broken foot as leverage, Lu Yu spun his body, utilizing rotational force, allowing himself to soar over the Slaughterer's head, flying towards the key wrapped by the tentacle.
The price was Lu Yu's ankle, which was only crushed into pulp, being twisted off by his own strength.
Bang! In mid-air, Lu Yu was hit by the tentacle and sent flying, crashing to the ground, helplessly watching the key being thrown into the demonic cavern right before his eyes.
The key fell into the black hole of the demonic cavern, disappearing from sight.
Both the Slaughterer and Lu Yu stopped their movements, tightly watching the demonic cavern, focusing on the impending change.
"Retreat! The nuclear threat is coming!"
During the brief halt in battle, external sounds finally reached Lu Yu's ears.
Upon hearing the word nuclear, Lu Yu's sensitive nerves exploded instantly, meanwhile, changes occurred in the demonic cavern, Lu Yu felt a strand of Spiritual Qi mixed in abundant demonic energy, emerging from the demonic cavern's opening.
A very intense spatial fluctuation emanated from the opening, much stronger than the fluctuations during teleportation, strong enough for Lu Yu to perceive it clearly.
Lu Yu's first clear sensation of spatial fluctuation was during an accident while teleporting, when he fell out of a spatial teleportation channel.
At that time, he was incredibly close to the level of space, but could only vaguely feel it, with a sense of ambiguity.
But the demonic cavern before his eyes allowed him to feel the power of space with utmost clarity.
"Retreat!!!"
All the Qi Control Realm jumped off the wall, rapidly fleeing towards the distance.
Lu Yu heard the urgency in that voice, realizing the nuclear threat was likely imminent, looking up, a small black dot in the sky continued growing larger, heading directly towards his position.
"Damn!!!"
With his foot broken, mobility impaired, the nuclear threat about to fall, about to explode.
Lu Yu stared at the open spatial portal, now there was no choice.
He jumped with all his might towards the entrance of the demonic cavern, the Slaughterer stood at the edge of the opening, making no move, coldly watching as Lu Yu leapt into the spatial portal.
A small black dot hadn't hit the ground yet when an intensely bright light appeared, resembling a blazing sun falling to the earth, the Slaughterer's figure melted in the light.
All the demons melted in the light, the flesh forming the demonic cavern couldn't withstand, turning into charcoal.
Feeling the heat behind him, Lu Yu cursed inwardly countless times, the spatial portal hadn't opened completely, he got stuck midway, and saw the broken bronze key within the portal.
Only managing to grasp the key, he lost consciousness.
Before losing consciousness, Lu Yu saw the backpack.
