Chapter 2862: Gourd?

Specter Progenitor did not speak, though his eyes flickered. The four ruling powers were gone, and there was no longer any place for them in the Perennial World.

Bai Sheng and Xia Qin glanced at each other. Neither of them had been involved in the Lu family’s exile. They had not returned to the Perennial World not only because they had been helping protect the Sixverse Association, but also because they had not been certain of the Lu family\'s attitude towards them.

No one wanted to die, not even them.

The Lu family had always been domineering. It would be a pity if the two Progenitors were killed and anointed as champions.

Xia Qin had been very frustrated with her Xia family, but that did not mean that she wanted to risk death by returning. She had not been very clear on the relationship between Xia Shenji and Lu Yin as well.

Lu Yin had now made that position clear, and the two Progenitors felt that they should seriously consider returning.

Big Sis snorted disdainfully. "Let me go deal with them."

Why did Lu Yin not want to deal with everyone here? The Great Sovereign was already protecting the spy, Nutjob Lu, from Ancestor Lu Yuan, as well as the traitors Bai Wangyuan and Wang Fan. These debts would eventually be collected, and once Lu Yin had the confidence to act, even the Great Sovereign would be forced to pay the price.

But that time had not arrived yet.

Arrow Sage was afraid that Lu Yin and his group would attack Bai Sheng and the others, so he quickly asked a guide to the Orchid Forest Universe to come over.

The guide was a woman, and she was a native of the Voidforce Universe. She was normally tasked with transporting people from her own universe to the Orchid Forest Universe, but she had temporarily been brought to the Wall of Purity.

Coincidentally, Xu Xiangyin was in the group of people being sent to the Orchid Forest Universe. Due to Lu Yin\'s interference, the date for Xu Xiangyin and those in his group to go to the Endless Frontier had been delayed.

"Your servant is a guide for the Orchid Forest Universe. Greetings, Lord Lu, and all of you seniors." The woman was nervous and close to panicking. She trembled as she addressed all these peak powerhouses, with the jiao leaving the woman particularly uneasy. She just hoped that she would not be swallowed whole.

Lu Yin calmly ordered, "Take us to the Orchid Forest Universe."

"Yes, Lord Lu."

Lu Yin and the rest were soon taken to the Endless Frontier’s Orchid Forest Universe by the guide.

Once they left the Wall of Purity, Arrow Sage heaved a sigh of relief. Lu Yin’s presence had pressured him greatly. The Heavens Sect had too many powerhouses, while the Cyclic Universe only had four peak powerhouses at the Wall of Purity. If Lu Yin and the jiao were also taken into account, then the Heavens Sect had sent six peak powerhouses. What’s more, there were still more experts in the Origin Universe.

The balance of power in the Sixverse Association had completely shifted.

The Orchid Forest Universe was separated from the Decaying Diablo Universe by four parallel universes.

Lu Yin did not want to make it too obvious that they were going to the Decaying Diablos Universe to help the Merchant Exchange lest they be targeted by the Aeternals. So, the only option was to travel to a nearby universe like the Orchid Forest Universe and then rush through several parallel universes.

In Proximity, Sage Bodhi received a message from Arrow Sage that surprised her. Lord Lu had led a total of six peak powerhouses to the Orchid Forest Universe. What were they doing in that place?

At the moment, the Great Sovereign and the other rulers of the universes were fighting a massive battle against Aeternus, and their fight was tearing the Endless Frontier apart. Several parallel universes had already collapsed. But at such a time, Dao Monarch Lu and several other Progenitors were entering the Endless Frontier. Why?

"Immediately find out what is going on with Lord Lu and his party," Sage Bodhi ordered.

A woman quickly reported, "Lord Lu and the others were detected in the Platinum Universe."

Sage Bodhi was surprised. How much time had passed? Had Lu Yin already passed from the Orchid Forest Universe to the Platinum Universe?

On the Endless Frontier, in the Platinum Universe, Lu Yin was sitting atop the jiao and staring at the falling stars before him. Was this the Platinum Universe?

This was the universe that Wendy Yushan had been taken to after being kidnapped by Sovereign Shao Yin. At that time, Lu Yin had thought that he needed to rescue Wendy, but the woman had escaped on her own.

Unexpectedly, Lu Yin had still arrived in the Platinum Universe, though his circumstances were entirely different from before.

At that time, Lu Yin had been forced to travel across the Endless Frontier by Sovereign Shao Yin. This time, Lu Yin was on his way to kill that very same Sovereign. There was no way to predict the twists and turns of life.

The Platinum Universe was an ordinary parallel universe. There were no peak powerhouses in the universe, and the strongest people here were only equal to Semi-Progenitors.

However, the next parallel universe was completely different.

In the Endless Frontier, for every three connected parallel universes, one would be a dangerous battlefield with peak powerhouses. Examples of these dangerous universes included the Big Stone Universe and the Umbral Universe that Lu Yin had visited in the past.

In order to reach the Decaying Diablo Universe from the Orchid Forest Universe, the most direct route was to go through the Platinum Universe, the Gourd Universe, and the Musica Universe, which was connected to the Decaying Diablo Universe.

Of these four parallel universes, the Gourd Universe was acknowledged as one of the top ten most dangerous universes on the entire Endless Frontier.

However, they had no choice but to travel through that universe to reach the Decaying Diablo Universe.

The Merchant Exchange had wanted Lu Yin to bring people straight to the Decaying Diablo Universe through a guide, but Lu Yin did not want to alert Aeternus to his intentions, and would rather take the longer path.

No matter how dangerous the Gourd Universe might be, a group of six Progenitor-level combatants would be enough to barge through.

In Proximity, Sage Bodhi was carefully observing the battlefield where the Great Sovereign was fighting, while also keeping track of Lu Yin’s movements.

The Sage knew that Lu Yin was about to enter the Gourd Universe.

"Give me an updated report on the Gourd Universe."

Wendy Yushan lifted her head. "At present, four peak powerhouses are fighting in the Gourd Universe. From our Sixverse Association, there are Mu Tao Man and Xiu Ci, and for the Aeternals, two Progenitor-level corpse kings, one fighting each of our experts. Mu Tao has faced the same opponent for thousands of years, with no victor being determined. The second corpse king only recently arrived in the Gourd Universe, and it is capable of undergoing a Red Eyes Transformation, which has overwhelmed Mu Tao and Xiu Ci. Things are not looking good for us in the Gourd Universe."

Sage Bodhi immediately ordered, "Find a way to send this information to Dao Monarch Lu. Ask him to lend a hand to Mu Tao and Xiu Ci."

"Understood."

The jiao crossed the Platinum Universe without encountering any obstacles. Whenever they found a battlefield, Arch-Elder Zen would take action, and he easily cleared one battlefield after another, nearly purging the Platinum Universe as they crossed it.

If they were not pressed for time, Lu Yin and his group would have been able to purge multiple universes of the Endless Frontier, as long as they did not encounter any freaks equal to the Seven Skygods.

After passing through the Platinum Universe, they entered the Gourd Universe. The moment they entered that universe, a strange power manifested, and everyone’s body was encased within an energy barrier shaped like a gourd.

Lu Yin stared, dumbfounded. Was this where the Gourd Universe’s name had come from?

Arch-Elder Zen and Big Sis were both similarly confused. What was this?

The jiao had a massive, flat gourd that encased its massive form. It looked to both sides, its eyes wide with surprise.

Big Sis frowned. This was a rather undignified appearance, and she quickly used her abyssal power to shatter the barrier around her.

The entire Gourd Universe trembled, and a deep sound echoed out.

Chen Le was startled. "Senior, don\'t attack!"

Big Sis glanced sideways at the man, clearly irritated. "Are you talking to me?"

Chen Le\'s face turned pale. "Senior, this is a unique characteristic of the Gourd Universe. Anyone who enters this universe will be encased in a gourd, and the fighting method in this universe is to smash into other gourds."

"Bullshit! Are you saying that I can’t get away from this?" Big Sis was quite annoyed.

Chen Le carefully explained, "Monarch Luo once told me that, the first time the Voidlord entered this universe, he shattered his own gourd, and it triggered a retaliation from the universe. I was told that, unless you want to completely destroy this universe, do not destroy your gourd."

Lu Yin grew solemn. "Big Sis, is this a law in this universe?"

Big Sis snorted contemptuously as she looked around to observe the universe. "I don\'t know who would have such bad taste to actually force such a law onto this universe. This place isn’t very large, as otherwise that person would have suffered terribly.

"I can shatter my gourd, but doing so will destroy this entire Gourd Universe. Breaking this gourd is no different from breaking the laws that person enforced on this universe, and destroying this law would be no different from challenging this universe as a whole. This is really disgusting."

Lu Yin glanced over at Chen Le.

The Monarch replied, "It is said that this universe became like this because of Hu Guiren."

"How strong is this Hu Guiren?" Lu Yin turned to ask Big Sis.

"He’s about equal to me."

Lu Yin nodded. Imposing a law on a universe and then integrating it into the fundamental existence of the universe was something that could only be done by someone far more powerful than Sovereign Shao Yin. Old Mo had managed to alter the entire Umbral Universe with the Law of Darkness, but that man was also much stronger than Sovereign Shao Yin.

However, there was no need to pay attention to Hu Guiren, as the man was already dead.

Lu Yin patted the jiao. "Let\'s go."

The jiao did not like being trapped within a gourd. No matter how anyone looked at the situation, the jiao looked absurd.

However, there was nothing that the jiao could do, as it could not overpower the laws of the universe.

At this moment, Lu Yin’s communication crystal vibrated.

Throughout the Sixverse Association, most communications were conducted through communication crystals. Lu Yin also had his own, just to allow for easy communications.

In the Perennial World, wireless jincans had already replaced communications crystals, and after the Origin Universe had become a member of the Sixverse Association, each of the other member universes had started interacting and trading with the Origin Universe.

The wireless jincans were one of the Origin Universe’s products that they were most eager to distribute. However, they had not become very popular yet.

"Is this Dao Monarch Lu?"

Lu Yin hummed.

"There is a crisis in the Gourd Universe, and I would like to request Dao Monarch Lu’s assistance to reinforce the center of the universe."

Lu Yin\'s eyes flickered. "What’s going on?"

"Our Sixverse Association’s Senior Mu Tao and Senior Xiu Ci are fighting against two corpse kings, one of which has used a Red Eyes Transformation, which makes its gourd incredibly hard. The two seniors are only able to survive by helping each other, as neither of them can directly stand up to this corpse king. They’re struggling to hold out and won’t last much longer. None of the nearby battlefields can afford to send reinforcements.”

Lu Yin lowered his communication crystal. He quickly found their destination, and the jiao shot forward.

Lu Yin had never met Mu Tao, but he was familiar with Xiu Ci, and the man had an excellent reputation.

Even more importantly, Xiu Ci had very good standing in the Voidforce Universe, which made it more than appropriate for Lu Yin to help this Void Suprema.

A great distance away from the jiao, at the center of the Gourd Universe, Mu Tao was panting, trying to catch his breath. Blood dyed his mustache red and constantly dripped down. His sword was broken, and his Progenitor’s world only had a few peaches remaining on the tree.

Nearby, Xiu Ci was not in much better condition. Blood had also stained his beard, and his Formless Barrier was pressed right up against his own gourd.

"Bearded freak, how are you doing?" Mu Tao asked between breaths. His eyes never left the female corpse king in front of him that was surrounded by a sea of blood.

Xiu Ci gave a bitter smile. "Little Mustache, we’re going to suffer this time. We can\'t hold out."

He eyed the distant red-eyed corpse king. It was clear that the gourd surrounding that corpse king was far more durable than the ones surrounding either of the two humans. Their gourds were covered with cracks.

If their gourds broke, they would die.

Mu Tao shrugged. "Proximity has known about our situation for some time, but no reinforcements have shown up even after all this time. I’d say that the other battlefields are having a rough time of things as well.”

"Aeternus attacked the Tea Ceremony, and war broke out across the Endless Frontier, as well as in each of the Sixverse Association’s members\' universes. The Aeternals have gone nuts, and we’re just lucky we aren’t facing a captain of the True God Guard."

"Lucky my ass! We’re still going to die."

Neither of the two ever mentioned escaping. They would rather die fighting than flee. This was their responsibility.

Without people bearing this responsibility, how could humans have successfully defended against the Aeternals for so long?
