All laws are treacherous, I am the Spirit Lord

Chapter 418 Li Yu, Covered in Divine Weapons

Despite Li Yu once again completing the robbery of the cosmic artifact in "less than two seconds".

Unharmed, he managed to steal the fake Death Note.

However, this time, the comments and donations were filled with both praise and complaints:
"He just ran away? He'd rather have two women than enjoy the good life of having two wives, all for that useless Death Note?"

"Is the Moon Goddess not beautiful, or the Witch not alluring?"

“The price of using the Corruption Grail is not small. Why not take this opportunity to completely corrupt the Moon Goddess and the Black Moon Witch and use them for your own purposes? With these two goddesses protecting you, not only will your chances of survival increase significantly, but becoming the final champion is not impossible.”

“It’s not that he doesn’t want to, but that he can’t. The price is about to be paid, and his power of seduction will fall back… If he delays by even a few seconds, he will be torn apart by the awakened Moon Maiden and the witch. The little time left is not enough for him to complete the corruption. The Nirvana Venerable and the Black Maitreya Buddha will not stand idly by.”

"So, he really just wanted to steal a cosmic artifact that wasn't very useful? Will that change his fate?"

"Why not? So far, in addition to the Time-Space Blade, the Son of the Vortex has already acquired the Helmet of Dreams, the Water of Life, the Card of Destiny, the Labyrinth of Change, the Spear of Destruction, the Cloak of Invisibility, the Umbilical Cord of Mother Goddess, and the Death Note... He is armed to the teeth, and is unique among all the contestants."

"Hiss~ It seems that in a one-on-one fight, he might actually be able to defeat most demigods, or even all demigods."

"Don't forget, the price he paid for acquiring so many cosmic artifacts was offending a large number of demigods... He can win in one-on-one battles, or even one against two, but it won't be long before the number of demigods hunting him down exceeds seven or eight, and he will surely die."

“I even think he still has no intention of stopping and is completely addicted to robbery.”

……

Most viewers were complaining and were convinced of Li Yu's tragic end.

The Toad God remained silent, only showering the gods with rewards.

At the same time, several true gods in the righteous god camp couldn't help but turn their gazes toward Li Yu.

The eyes of the Earth Mother and the Spiritual Response Sovereign are particularly eerie.

That's right!

The toad god has tipped them off.

Of course, the main purpose was not to accuse Li Yu of harassing Yue Gu, the "Lord of the Moon Palace," but to give a heads-up to the gods in advance, making it clear that Li Yu was the son of the God of the Vortex.

In order to avoid revealing his identity, facilitate infiltration, and betray the enemy at crucial moments, Li Yu might pretend to be very convincing and indiscriminately attack any demigods who stand in his way.

Naturally, this also includes the six figures: Moon Maiden, Nirvana Venerable, Zhang Tianshi, Time-Stopping King, God of Slaughter, and Martial Saint.

And that's exactly what Li Yu did.

After he managed to steal the [Fake Death Note], his body was damaged before he even entered the next landing point.

The price of making a wish using the "Crimson Grail" is to become twisted.

His wish was for enchanting fulfillment.

Then these are what will be lost.

In an instant, he fell from being a "perfect being," his body began to rot, giving rise to all sorts of evil creatures and bizarre organs. Not only was he ugly and unbearable, he could no longer charm any being, but he also forcibly attracted hatred.

This makes any living being want to kill him upon seeing him.

The good news is that because he only used the Holy Grail slightly, the duration of the cost was very short.

The bad news is that it was immediately fulfilled, attracting the hatred of several terrifying beings.

……

The next landing point was, unsurprisingly, another battlefield that was almost completely destroyed.

It was impossible to tell which multiverse scene the Master of the Curtain had plagiarized. All that could be seen were various ruins and fragments, terrifying sword beams like a net covering the heavens, crisscrossing and intertwining, and solidified fist-shaped divine energy twisting the void into chaos...

That's right, here are two contestants fighting again, perfectly satisfying the Lord of the Curtain's perverse tastes.

They are respectively the [Martial Saint] and the [Immortal Slayer].

The former has the upper hand.

Even among demigods, there are differences in strength.

Among the demigods, the Martial Saint is considered one of the best, while the Immortal Slayer is somewhat inferior.

Of course, this was also the Immortal Slayer's bad luck. Although his realm was insufficient, his killing power was enough to overwhelm most demigods. Unfortunately, he encountered a Martial Saint who was equally skilled in killing.

The two clashed head-on!

Before anyone else was hurt, the landing point was destroyed.

However, at this moment, the two entangled figures seemed to sense something and turned to look at Li Yu, who had just passed through.

In the eyes of the two gods, where was there even the slightest bit of beauty in the Son of the Vortex God?

Yes, there are ugly things that evoke hatred and murderous intent.

No matter how you look at it, it's a filthy mass of flesh and blood that makes you want to grind it up completely.

As a demigod under the command of the Demon-Slaying Celestial Venerable, the Martial Saint possessed a resilient spirit and formidable resistance. Therefore, he merely frowned and remained motionless.

The Immortal Slayer was immediately drawn to the scene and, while leaving the battlefield, slashed at Li Yu.

A crimson sword aura, stretching across the universe, slashed down!

It was truly brutal.

At the same moment, Li Yu also realized why the Immortal Slayer, despite being weaker, could fight the Martial Saint to a draw.

On his body was a cosmic artifact called the "Shield of Nothingness".

"False Shield of Nothingness!"

"The original is a divine artifact that all the gods in the boundless spirit world covet. The creator of this artifact is a mysterious being called the Lord of Utopia. Even the Lord of Myriad Changes, who is known as the most learned, or the ancient saints with profound foundations, only know of His existence, but do not know what level He is at."

"The Lord of Utopia also has another title, known as the God of Absolute Defense."

"It means that no matter who the opponent is, they cannot harm Him."

"Indeed, all the gods, including the Blood God who is ruthless and brutal, the Myriad Changes who are unpredictable and cunning, and the Lord of the Curtain who wields immense power, are powerless against the Lord of Utopia."

“No attack could have any effect on it, as if it were a non-existent god.”

"If it doesn't exist, then how can it have any impact?"

"This artifact is a replica, only able to imitate a little of the original's divinity... It can defend against demigod-level opponents, almost all attacks on the material and soul levels, as well as some attacks on the conceptual level."

"Ok?"

The moment Li Yu received the information, his eyes lit up.

His insatiable greed and possessiveness were revealed.

Although he has now plundered a large number of rare items and is armed to the teeth.

However, a crucial defensive artifact is missing.

Now, I've finally seen it.

Greed drives great wisdom!
Without a moment's hesitation, Li Yu decided on a robbery strategy and put it into action in the blink of an eye.

First, the "Pseudo-Ever-Changing Maze" flew out, indiscriminately enveloping the Martial Saint and the Immortal Slayer.

This strange object can probably trap two demigods for a few seconds.

So, from Li Yu's arms, the still-warm "pseudo-Death Note" flew out, and he immediately wrote:
"Target: The demigod Immortal Slayer under the command of Venerable Tianzui, whose full real name is Sakaga..."

"Method of death: Due to wearing the [Shield of Nothingness] for an extended period of time, he suffered a backlash from the cost, which created a slight flaw. This flaw was quickly discovered by his opponent, a Martial Saint, who delivered a fatal blow, breaking through his perfect defense..."

Li Yu's actions, aside from providing crucial information such as revealing the true name of the Immortal Slayer, were noteworthy.

All other actions were observed by the audience.

Everyone was curious, so this is where it came in?
Could it be that the seemingly useless pseudo-Death Note can actually help the Son of the Vortex God escape the pursuit of two demigods and also snatch a new cosmic artifact?
All doubts were soon resolved.

...The instant Li Yu finished writing!

The two demigods trapped in the maze faced each other once again under Li Yu's control.

There were no pleasantries, no greetings, only a deadly exchange of blows.

Even though both gods knew that this was most likely a conspiracy and trap by the son of the Vortex God, they still had no choice.

Good and evil cannot coexist, especially since the two sides are mortal enemies.

Because of his previous successful experiences in long battles, the Immortal Slayer habitually believed that the Shield of Nothingness would make him invincible and immune to any damage.

Unfortunately, this time, He miscalculated.

The Pseudo-Shield of Nothingness can indeed exempt one from all the methods of a Martial Saint.

However, because it is a copy, it is not exempt from conceptual attacks.

Unfortunately, the fake Death Note really is a conceptual obliteration, especially after Li Yu perfectly wrote down his real name and a logical way of dying.

A critical hit effect is triggered immediately!

A slight opening appeared, and the Martial Saint immediately seized it.

A muffled rumble followed.

The Immortal Slayer did not dodge and took the full force of the Demon-Slaying Divine Strike.

Its main body was severely damaged in an instant.

The transformed "Immortal Slayer Sword Body" immediately shattered, and the Shield of Nothingness that protected its body naturally separated from it as well.

Before the Martial Saint could react, they started picking up the spoils of war.

Li Yu, who had perfectly timed the moment, suddenly appeared.

"Wow!"

"The equipment exploded."

Along with this statement came Li Yu's underhanded tactics.

With a single thought, this fellow banished the invincible "Martial Saint" to another part of the maze.

He swiftly and smoothly retrieved the Shield of Nothingness.

Seamless integration!

It was put on itself.

The Time-Space Blade slices through the void ahead.

Li Yu didn't even look at the state of the Immortal Slayer behind him, nor did he have any interest in taking the opportunity to strike, such as killing the Immortal Slayer completely.

He now has that ability.

Even without using other means, simply taking out the Spear of Destruction and the Pseudo-Ancient Saint Scepter, combined with overwhelming firepower and a fatal blow, would make it impossible for the already severely injured Immortal Slayer to survive.

Li Yu can thus achieve the first kill in this battle royale mode.

One can imagine that if he really succeeds, it will surely cause a huge stir and his fame will skyrocket.

But this temptation couldn't hold him back.

It's not because Li Yu is some kind of saint, or because he's forced to maintain his record of "averaging two seconds to steal treasure and run away."

Rather, he sensed immense danger and had a strong premonition:

"If I stay and kill the Immortal Slayer, I will definitely succeed, but it will take about three more seconds."

"At that time, the Martial Saint will shatter the maze, and the pursuers behind will also come. I will be surrounded and killed without a doubt."

In the face of fame and achievement.

Li Yu chose his own life.

So he took the Shield of Nothingness, and like a fish, he darted into the void and slipped away.

The Immortal Slayer, who had been left behind, suddenly realized what was happening and was consumed by rage.

He was determined to hunt down Li Yu at all costs!

Unfortunately, Li Yu had already anticipated this.

Once the others leave, the maze is naturally taken away as well.

The Martial Saint was thus freed!

Although he was unharmed, he was still tricked and appeared extremely clumsy in the eyes of the audience, being completely outmaneuvered by Li Yu.

As soon as he emerged, he was filled with rage and had nowhere to vent it. Right in front of him was the injured Immortal Slayer, who was not protected by the Shield of Nothingness.

What will happen next is obvious.

The life-or-death struggle has begun again, but this time, the situation will be one-sided.

From Li Yu's arrival, attracting hatred and taking advantage of the situation, to stealing the "Pseudo-Shield of Nothingness" and running away.

Total time: two seconds.

This rock-solid record has left viewers somewhat numb.

What stirred up the waves once again was the methods Li Yu displayed in this process.

Although there had been obvious signs of his actions before this.

But that near-perfect "operation" just now is irrefutable proof.

"Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant! Now I'm certain that the Son of the Vortex God won't be the first to be eliminated, and he might not even die in the second round."

“I understand now. The Son of the Vortex God is not insane. He is not deliberately indulging in the thrill of robbery. He is trying to seize as many cosmic artifacts as possible to compete with the demigods, and he has succeeded.”

"The killing artifacts include the Spear of Destruction and the Death Note; the defense is the Shield of Nothingness; the Water of Life and the Mother Goddess's umbilical cord give him two extra lives; for control, there is the Helmet of Dreams; for escape, he can use the Maze of Change; for hiding, he can use the Invisibility Cloak and the Card of Destiny... In addition, there is the charm of the Lord of the Vortex God himself, as well as the three artifacts of the Ancient Saint."

"How could he possibly have died in the first round?"

"That's truly a brilliant move. It really allowed him, a legendary-level player, to stand out among all the demigod-level contestants?"

"It's amazing enough that he could gather so many cosmic artifacts. What's truly terrifying is his cunning and shamelessness. His fighting style reminds me of the two most notorious evil gods. They were just as shameless and treacherous."

"The Lord of Change and the Foolish God!"

"Not necessarily. The Son of the Vortex God doesn't seem to be a dual-attribute divine child, nor does he have corresponding authority or means. He's just similar in temperament."

“The ancient sages wanted to seize this child before, and now I’m afraid Wanbian and Yushen will also have their eyes on him.”

"With so many cosmic artifacts around him, unless the Son of the Vortex God can attract more than six ferocious demigods to relentlessly pursue him, and must possess the means to break through the artifacts' defenses and prevent them from escaping, he should be safe in the first round. He also has a high probability of surviving the second round. The suspense lies in the third round: whether he can withstand the pursuit of the [Ancient Saint Projection] and whether he can compete with the remaining demigods to enter the only safe point."

"Don't jump to conclusions too soon. I don't think he'll survive the first round. Six demigods, plus restraining measures, are already here."

……

The reason why a certain viewer left a final comment was naturally because of the image being presented in the crystal lattice.

Because Li Yu was too good at causing trouble and making a mess.

Both on and off the field, he is undoubtedly the sole focus.

Apart from a few pairs like the Martial Saint and the Immortal Slayer who were unable to escape and had to kill their mortal enemies.

Most of the other demigods, being "victims" of Li Yu and with Laughing Nightmare acting as a go-between, all chose to hunt down Li Yu.

And soon, in a deserted landing spot, he was blocked from all directions.
