Chapter 2417: Deeds



He ventured deeper into the box. Before long, he spotted a long saber, and the sight caused his eye to twitch. From afar, it looked like a blade. Up close, it still looked like a saber, but the blade and the spine of the saber were intertwined. It was impossible to discern where the blade ended and where the spine of the saber started. Both sides were simultaneously blade and spine. As for the hilt of the saber, a wicked-looking barb was carved onto it. Lu Yin had no idea whether such an odd weapon could actually damage a person’s opponent, but it was clear that anyone who tried to use the saber would injure themselves. Progenitor Guai truly had an odd mind.

Lu Yin shook his head and continued along.

By this point, he had already explored half of the metal box. Not a single weapon could escape his detection due to his domain. The strangest weapon that he saw so far was a tail. No matter how it was swung around , the pointed tip would always stab at the user. The sharpest weapon that he found was an arrow, but the shaft was curved and had been hollowed out. There was no way anyone who fired the arrow would ever hit their target. The arrow was even useless in close combat; while the arrowhead was extraordinarily sharp, the tip was blunt. The arrow had only been sharpened at the place where the arrowhead met the shaft. Even after examining it for half a day, Lu Yin still had no idea how to use the thing.

Dozens of weapons floated behind him. Some were quite large, while others were small. Each and every one had been constructed from incredible materials that were so precious that even Lu Yin could not help but take notice of them. However, all of the precious materials had been used to make completely useless weapons.

Lu Yin believed that these materials had to have been considered precious in every era, and he was certain that many of the materials no longer even existed. He felt a pang in his heart at the sight of the sheer waste that Progenitor Guai had created.

Luckily, the situation was still salvageable. With his die’s Blackhole Disassembly, all of these materials would see use once more.

After some time, Lu Yin arrived in the central area. This was where the temperature was highest. Some distance away, he could see a sword hilt that stretched out of sight that stood upright at the base of the mountain range. The hilt looked rather similar to the swords of the Sword Sect, with the only difference being that this one was far, far larger. No ordinary human would ever be able to use such a thing. Only colossal giants might be able to do so. This sword was even larger than the broken saber that Lu Yin had seen in Shenwu’s Sky that Xia Chan had left behind. Much, much larger.

For some reason, Lu Yin exhaled in relief. If the colossal giants could use this sword hilt, then it wouldn’t be wasted. However, most colossal giants preferred using their fists to swords,

A single step brought Lu Yin above the sword hilt, and he looked down. He had wanted to check just how large the hilt truly was.

Upon looking down, his jaw dropped.

The hilt of the sword was so massive that Lu Yin believed that only colossal giants could hope to wield the weapon, but the blade was so short that he nearly missed it. He took another step to arrive next to the blade. The hilt was both long and wide, but the blade was only one meter long, though just as wide as the hilt. This weapon perfectly matched its creator’s style of using valuable resources to create weapons that absolutely no one could ever hope to use.

Even if a colossal giant could grab the hilt, they would not be able to use this sword. As for normal humans, they could never even lift the hilt, no matter how they tried.

Even if someone could lift the hilt of the sword, Lu Yin could only imagine the person’s opponent laughing themselves to death at the sight of the blade.

Lu Yin’s eye twitched. At this moment, he really wanted to have a chat with Progenitor Guai. He wanted to know just what kind of person was capable of creating such loathsome weapons, especially while insisting on using the most expensive and rare materials available.

It was no wonder why even the Daosource Sect had felt compelled to order Progenitor Guai to melt down his weapons. If Lu Yin had been present at that time, he probably would have given the man a vicious slap. The weapons that he made were too damn despicable.

Hm? There was writing on the back of the blade.

It was in the language of the Daosource Sect era, which Lu Yin could not read. Instead, he sent a message to the Ghost Monkey with his wireless jincan, ordering the monkey to use his communication crystal so that he could translate the writing that Lu Yin was looking at.

I am Progenitor Guai. Brother, or perhaps sister, no matter who you are, did you become upset when you saw the weapons that your senior brother has left here? Are you really mad right now? Calm down for a moment and listen to what your senior brother has to say.

Your senior brother had no choice in the matter as I was forced to do this. By whom, you ask? Well, it was Aeternus. Now, don’t jump to any conclusions. Your senior brother has never betrayed humanity. I’m not a Redback or a traitor. Still, fate sometimes works in strange and mysterious ways. I was once saved by a Redback. It was when I was very, very young. That Redback fervently indoctrinated me with the notion that I should betray humanity, and since I was just a mere child at the time, I simply followed along. Now, you may be wondering why that Redback valued me so much. Well, that’s entirely because your senior brother was always extraordinarily gifted and talented, as well as the most beautiful man alive at that time. Right, that Redback was a woman.

However, it’s easier said than done to change the mentality that one has been indoctrinated with from a young age, but who do you think your senior brother is? Even then, I was someone guaranteed to become a Progenitor! How could ordinary logic ever apply to me? I did indeed end up a traitor, but not to humanity—I betrayed that woman. However, it wasn’t easy for me to betray her. She held some evidence of my past actions regarding a certain matter. You should already know what I’m referring to.

Left with no other choice, I used my dashing looks and glib tongue to reach a deal with her; I would do one thing to harm humanity in order to repay the kindness that she had shown me, while also not leaving any evidence behind. In return, I’ll be able to leave her to her own devices.

Don’t blame me, your senior brother, for keeping her identity a secret. You would only be able to understand my feelings back then if you were in my shoes. Of course, I also kept an eye on her to make sure she was never able to make any trouble, hahahahaha! One last thing—exhausting humanity’s precious resources to create these useless weapons was the only thing that I ever did to harm humanity for her. Other than that, your senior brother has never done anything to hurt humanity.

Your senior brother has only ever had two goals in life: constructing the Guai Armory and slaughtering all the Aeternals! The day I stop doing either will be the day I die!

Progenitor Guai – Yun Yi.

It took the Ghost Monkey more than an hour to translate the long passage of text.

Lu Yin felt rather amused by the story behind the armory. Just as Progenitor Guai had written, no one could fault him for his actions. No one was willing to simply die. As a Progenitor, choosing to not betray humanity was already the greatest contribution that Progenitor Guai could have made. He had even saved humanity from further potential harm by keeping a powerful Redback in check. Both Progenitor Guai and that woman had to have died in the years that had passed. Everything had changed with the passing of time with only the weapons remaining behind.

Every single person who managed to become a Progenitor was a true legend. Even the most low-profile of all Progenitors, Progenitor Ku, possessed an awe-inspiring story that could only be learned by digging into his history. It was the same with Progenitor Guai. Although the man’s name had not echoed down through the ages, his accomplishments could still be considered a legendary feat.

“Whatever, I don’t blame you. Also, you don’t need to worry, as I can recycle all of the materials in these weapons. You didn’t waste humanity’s resources. Instead, you helped me save them. Yun Yi, you say? My thanks, Senior Brother,” Lu Yin muttered. There was a spring in his step as he stored the various weapons away before continuing to explore the interior of the box. He only stopped to sit down after he collected every last weapon in the Guai Armory. It was time to roll his die. He needed to heal and recover, as well as Disassemble these weapons.

The mountain range and extremely hot liquid still within the metal box were also valuable treasures, but Lu Yin had no urgent need for them. He decided to leave them untouched as a memorial to Progenitor Guai’s legacy.

Everyone left some sort of mark in the universe during one’s life. But with the passage of time, these marks would one day be erased.

Lu Yin left the metal box

. He wondered how long the traces of his own accomplishments would last for in the universe. If humans in this part of the universe lost the war against Aeternus, then all traces of his existence would likely be completely erased.

Feeling somewhat melancholic, Lu Yin prepared to roll his die, but a sudden tremor from his wireless jincan gave him pause. Mu Xie was reaching out.

Lu Yin immediately answered.

“The battle has ended,” Senior Brother Mu Xie sent over.

Lu Yin silently waited for the man to continue.

“We never managed to eliminate Undying God, and in the end, he managed to escape…” Mu Xie filled Lu Yin in on everything that had transpired, including the fact that the corpse kings had retreated from the rear battlefield.

Lu Yin replied, “The enormous scarlet eye that burned a hole in the Tree Realm is basically a locator device. The Aeternals use it to send corpse kings to various universes…”

Mu Xie had not expected Lu Yin to be involved in the final events of the battle in the Dominion Realm. Still, even if Lu Yin had not managed to crack the scarlet eye, Aeternus likely would have made the same choices, given that there was no better option. They had almost instantly abandoned the battle in the Starfall Sea and allowed Lu Yin to do whatever he wanted there. It was only when Lu Yin had attacked the giant scarlet eye that Ancient God had used his power to suppress the entire Dominion Realm, which had given Corpse God the opportunity to make his way towards Lu Yin.

“No matter what happened, there was no way they would have ever left without rescuing Undying God. Four of the Seven Skygods appeared, and even True God Wei Yi personally took action to crack the Mother Tree’s trunk. They paid too high a price to simply abandon him,” Mu Xie commented.

Their conversation soon ended, but just a moment later, Lu Yin’s wireless jincan trembled once more. This time, he was being contacted by Progenitor Smoke.

“Are you sure that you saw Nutjob Lu? Four of the Seven Skygods just attacked the Perennial World, and if Nutjob Lu has truly betrayed mankind and is a Redback, then why didn’t he help them over the course of the entire battle?” Progenitor Smoke asked.

The person that Lu Yin was the wariest of was not any of the Seven Skygods, but rather Nutjob Lu.

When he had traveled through time and space, he had witnessed Nutjob Lu conversing with Ancient God. Nutjob Lu had also played a key role in the Lu family’s exile, and had even attempted to assassinate Lu Yin. It seemed to be a foregone conclusion that the man was a Redback.

Lu Yin had been near certain that Nutjob Lu would help Aeternus rescue Undying God, which was why he had told Progenitor Smoke ahead of time to hold back a bit of strength and to keep a close eye on Nutjob Lu.

This was why Progenitor Smoke had barely had any impact whatsoever throughout the entire battle. By all rights, even if Progenitor Smoke’s forte was not combat, there was no way that any one of the masters of the Nine Mountains and Eight Seas could be held back by a Progenitor-level corpse king and forced out of the main battle. Given her strength, Progenitor Smoke should have faced off against one of the Seven Skygods.

The woman also felt rather frustrated that she had been forced to put on such an act. Still, in the end, Lu Yin had been right. If Nutjob Lu had decided to attack humanity’s forces, the entire battlefield would have completely changed. She felt like she had actually been the one carrying the greatest burden during the battle.

The Seven Skygods had not had an easy time attacking the Perennial World, but even when Undying God had been rescued, Nutjob Lu had never once revealed even the slightest hint of betraying humanity. He had cooperated fully with Ceaseless Impetus to stop Aeternus, and such behavior left Lu Yin scratching his head in confusion.

“I also have no idea what’s going on, but I’m absolutely certain that Nutjob Lu is a Redback. He has a connection to Ancient God. Maybe all of this is just playing into some larger scheme. Senior, don’t lower your guard,” Lu Yin reminded her.

Progenitor Smoke snorted. “Are you sure that you aren’t just trying to get back at him for almost killing you with that sneak attack?”

Lu Yin grew completely serious. “This is a matter that concerns the safety of all humanity. If this junior has spoken a single word of falsehood, then I swear to never take a step into the Progenitor realm—I will die during my stellular tribulation.”

“Fine, fine. No one asked you to make such a heavy vow. Don’t worry, I’ll make sure that he never leaves my sight,” Progenitor Smoke replied before ending the call.

Lu Yin’s brow furrowed. He actually would have preferred it if Nutjob Lu revealed himself. Given Progenitor Smoke’s strength as a master of one of the Nine Mountains and Eight Seas, she would have been able to hold the man back. The fact that Nutjob Lu had acted normally throughout the entire battle left Lu Yin far more worried.
