Chapter 2855: Rematch
Stepping onto the Stargazing Deck with and without a Book of Destiny induced completely different scenarios.
While the Books of Destiny were badly damaged, Lu Yin had instead obtained Destiny’s pearls.
Thinking of this, Lu Yin stepped forward and onto the Stargazing Deck. The continent of fatesand inside of him trembled. The various powers were still streaming out of the continent and into the sky above it, condensing into stars. At this moment, Lu Yin froze for a moment, as he could see the outline of time.
Simultaneously, in two different Mainlands, Destina, Skymender, and Xiao Shi all vomited blood. Bai Xian’er did the same, despite being in the Cyclic Universe.
All of them were too familiar with this sensation, and they knew that Lu Yin had triggered Destiny again.
At the same moment, Lu Yin was staring at a cliff. It was black and endless. He looked up to gaze above the cliff. What was that?
An indescribable power knocked Lu Yin backwards. He stumbled a few steps back and looked up to stare at the Stargazing Deck.
Once again, he had completely forgotten what he had just seen. Eyes opened in the sky, and strange sequence particles swirled down to disappear around the Stargazing Deck.
It was the power of Destiny.
Lu Tianyi suddenly reached out and grabbed one of the sequence particles. There was a shout, and the ruins of the Daosource Sect collapsed. Cracks appeared in the Stargazing Deck, and Lu Yin\'s pupils shrank to pinpricks. Ancestor Tianyi’s power had clashed with the power of Destiny that hung in the air. This was a collision between the laws of the universe.
Even so, regardless of how powerful Destiny might be, she was not present. When Lu Tianyi opened his hand once again, the sequence particle had disappeared.
He had defeated the power of Destiny, though it had only been a tiny bit.
"This is the power of Destiny. A universe needs endless rules before it can come into being, and Destiny wielded the law of Destiny," Lu Tianyi murmured to himself.
Lu Yin did not understand. He had simply wanted to step onto the Stargazing Deck to see if he could remember what he had seen before. Unfortunately, the Stargazing Deck continued to crack until it finally shattered into dust, leaving behind only a single pearl.
"So fragile?" Lu Tianyi was stunned.
Lu Yin shrugged. "Well, Destiny isn’t here."
As he spoke, he squatted down and picked up the pearl. With this, there was only one pearl still missing. Once he gathered them all, would Destiny possibly appear?
However, with Ancestor Lu Yuan behind him, Lu Yin was no longer frightened of such a possibility.
Just as Lu Yin was about to leave, Lu Tianyi\'s expression changed, and he slowly turned around. "An old rival is here."
Right after that, Lu Yin felt the atmosphere grow heavy, and the starry sky gained greater depth. The stars trembled as a suffocating pressure drew closer and closer.
For Lu Yin to feel such pressure with his current strength, this had to be one of the Seven Skygods, though he could not say which one.
Soon, someone appeared, and they looked down at Lu Tianyi and Lu Yin.
"Blackless God." Lu Yin\'s expression turned solemn.
Of the Seven Skygods, Whiteless God was the most mysterious. Lu Yin had faced off against Forgotten Ruins God and Shaman God the most, and he had developed a decent understanding of both of them. As for Blackless God, he gave Lu Yin an impression of depth, boundless depth.
Blackless God was the first Skygod that Lu Yin had ever come into contact with. After Lu Yin received help from Progenitor Chen, the first time he had ever been trapped was by Blackless God as well.
Lu Yin would never forget the time in Millions City when Blackless God\'s avatar had been instantly destroyed by Mister Mu. While the Skygod’s last words before death had meant nothing, they had revealed that Blackless God knew Mister Mu.
None of the Seven Skygods were simple characters.
Blackless God\'s eyes were bright and lively, yet they contained a hidden darkness and depth to them. In them, three black lines crossed to form a star-shaped pattern. He stared at the three people before him. "Lu Tianyi, it’s been a long time."
Lu Tianyi staRedback at Blackless God. "It won\'t be that long."
"I thought that you would never show up again."
"When our ancestor awoke, he would always be able to bring us back. Why would I not show up?"
"You are incredibly lucky, but since you have returned, you can die with this era." The moment Blackless God finished speaking, the three black lines in his eyes started to spin.
Lu Tianyi shoved Lu Yin away. "Be careful!"
Against Blackless God, not even Lu Tianyi could afford a moment’s carelessness.
Lu Yin had heard that Lu Tianyi had once fought against the Seven Skygods on his own and that he had even faced off against True God. At that time, Lu Yin had thought that, if Lu Tianyi truly possessed such strength, he should be at least equal to the Three Realms and Six Dao. After all, one of the Three Realms and Six Dao had become one of the Seven Skygods: Ancient God.
Later, while speaking with Ancestor Lu Yuan, Lu Yin had learned that the Skygods had all been shunned from the Origin Universe. This was an unique ability of the Dao Monarch, and it prevented the Skygods from exerting their full strength. Still, Lu Tianyi had conferred the Nine Mountains and Eight Seas as his gods, and with his own power added on, Lu Yin believed that the man was at least as strong as the rulers of the other parallel universes.
Blackless God could not stop Lu Tianyi.
Lu Yin glanced around, as it would be a big problem if another Skygod appeared.
A distant figure appeared. Despite the distance, Lu Yin still heard heavy breathing.
It was a very familiar sound, and he had a flashback to when he had been ambushed during his last visit to the Sixth Mainland. The corpse king who had attacked Lu Yin at that time had reappeared. His name was Zhong Pan, and he was a captain of the True God Guard.
The sight of Zhong Pan caused Lu Yin to grow solemn. When they first met, Lu Yin had been too weak to do anything to the corpse king. He had been completely overpowered and utterly suppressed at every turn. This time, it would be different.
In the sky above, Blackless God and Lu Tianyi started a fight that Destina could not understand. The power that unfolded shattered space and was not something that she could even see. While that battle carried on, Zhong Pan had appeared in front of Lu Yin and Destina.
"Be careful," Lu Yin also said. He then stared at Zhong Pan. "I’ve wanted to see you again."
Zhong Pan possessed incredible physical strength. As far as Lu Yin was concerned, the corpse king was a freak.
Slitted scarlet eyes stared at Lu Yin. Suddenly, the corpse king raised a hand, throwing a palm strike at Lu Yin from a distance.
A purplish-black substance spread across Lu Yin\'s body, and the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant appeared behind him and let out a roar as Lu Yin retaliated with his own palm strike.
There was a bang as the void twisted and exploded.
When Lu Yin first faced off against Zhong Pan, he had been injured by a single attack. Lu Yin had only been able to survive through the combination of his slipper and Investiture of the Gods. He had managed to divert Zhong Pan’s attacks just enough to be able to escape with Jiang Qingyue. At present, Lu Yin no longer needed those tools.
Lu Yin’s breakthrough to the Semi-Progenitor realm had not just formed four inner worlds; it had also induced an earth-shaking change in Lu Yin\'s own physical strength. He was confident that his strength was no less than Zhong Pan’s now.
The corpse king leapt up, landed in front of Lu Yin, and released a punch. It was a simple and pure attack with nothing fancy about it. There was not even the slightest hint of a battle technique. It was nothing more than a punch.
Lu Yin stepped forward and released a mirrored punch of his own. The two fists collided with a deafening noise, and a shockwave rippled out that pushed Destina back.
She did not dare to move too far away, as she feared that Lu Tianyi and Lu Yin would leave her behind when they left. At the same time, she did not dare to get too close either. Lu Tianyi\'s battlefield did not even need to be mentioned, as merely being touched by the aftershocks would be fatal. However, Lu Yin\'s battlefield was also more than what Destina could handle. She was vomiting blood after just being struck by the shockwaves.
She gritted her teeth and sent out a thread of Destiny before herself, trying to spread out her strength.
However, the intensity of the clash between Lu Yin and Zhong Pan was rising. Zhong Pan underwent a Gray Eye Transformation, while at the same time, Lu Yin used Infinity. Terrifying forces impacted each other, knocking Destina away.
She had never imagined that a day would come when she was unable to even approach Lu Yin\'s battlefield, let alone when he was only a Semi-Progenitor.
The Gray Eye Transformation increased Zhong Pan’s strength tenfold while Lu Yin\'s Infinity formed more and more lines of strength. It truly did appear to be infinite, even if it was ultimately limited. That restriction would remain, unless Infinity transformed into a Progenitor’s world.
Still, it was enough, for the moment.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
As fist met fist in simple, brutal collisions, the two did not even flinch, though the shockwaves of their clashes swept through the surrounding area, destroying the remaining ruins of the Daosource Sect and shattering space.
Far away, Lu Tianyi and Blackless God simultaneously looked at each other.
"The heir of your Lu family is amazing, Lu Tianyi. His threat is much greater than even you," Blackless God said with no expression on his face. Three intersecting black lines kept moving about in front of the Skygod, attempting to trick and trap Lu Tianyi, but the Progenitor had fought Blackless God before, and he knew the Skygod’s tricks.
"You can\'t touch him. As long as the Lu family lives, not even True God can touch him."
"Human emotions are too complex, and while that complication allowed the incredible Heavens Sect to rise up, in the end, the Heavens Sect is gone, never to reappear."
"The Heavens Sect has already reappeared. Not all of you Seven Skygods are corpse kings, so why are you so loyal to True God?"
"The fact that you are trying to dissuade me indicates that you have such intentions and that that goes for all of humanity as well. Does that mean that there are also previous examples of Aeternals that were persuaded to double cross us? Are they still in Aeternus?"
Lu Tianyi\'s expression did not change at all, though he grew far warier. Just a casual sentence had given Blackless God various ideas. This enemy was both powerful and smart.
"Blackless God, do you really think that you can stop us?"
"I will try."
"In the Origin Universe, not even all Seven Skygods combined can stop me."
"That doesn’t mean that you will be able to take Lu Xiaoxuan away."
"You are underestimating the Nine Mountains and Eight Seas!" Lu Tianyi shouted in a deep voice. Over his head, the Investiture of the Gods appeared, and figures stepped out one after another.
A golden light illuminated the Sixth Mainland.
Lu Yin forced Zhong Pan back with a punch and looked around.
He saw Lu Tianyi’s conferred gods appearing from the golden scroll. Those were the summoned gods of Progenitor Ku, Bai Wangyuan, and Wang Fan.
Three figures stepped out, representing three of the Nine Mountains and Eight Seas.
As long as a person did not die, their power could be used by the person who had conferred them as gods. The fact that these people appeared was proof that they were not dead.
Progenitor Ku still lived.
Lu Tianyi was proof of this, which was why Ancestor Lu Yuan continued to try to save Progenitor Ku. Progenitor Ku was still alive.
However, it was impossible for Lu Tianyi to summon Xia Shenji\'s conferred god. The original Xia Shenji had died, and his clone had been conferred as a god by Lu Yin.
Lu Yin grew excited. In front of him, Zhong Pan’s eyes changed color once more, turning green, and then red.
The corpse king’s improved strength was enough to solidify the air, making it impossible for Lu Yin to move.
In Lu Yin’s chest, the Withered Bark twitched as it sent a stream of energy into the sky above the continent. Lu Yin pulled his arm back and then punched out, confining a hundred punches with the power of time.
Zhong Pan’s eyes had already become solid-red when Lu Yin released his punch, and the corpse king could only instinctively retaliate with his own fist.
Boom!
There was a terrible noise, and Zhong Pan was knocked back again. His arm was twisted unnaturally, and his body tumbled through space, leaving behind a dark streak in the sky.
At this same time, Lu Tianyi arrived, and his Investiture of the Gods disappeared as he grabbed Lu Yin. Destina was desperate to survive, so she took the opportunity and rushed over. Lu Tianyi grabbed her as well. "Let\'s go."
They wanted to leave, and Blackless God alone was unable to stop them.
He showed no intention of even trying to do so, and he simply watched as Lu Tianyi and Lu Yin left.
A short distance away, Lu Yin tore through the void, and the three people vanished.
