Chapter 3034: Hui Wu

He soon arrived at the Hui family’s territory in the Neoverse.

When the Aeternals had attacked the Fifth Mainland and poisoned its stellular energy, the Seven Courts had relocated to the Outerverse. Only after the Origin Progenitor’s sword purified the Fifth Mainland had they returned to the Neoverse.

Lu Yin’s arrival created quite a stir within the Hui family. He was no longer the same person as the one who had visited the family in the past. Lu Yin’s current status could absolutely determine the fate of the entire Hui family.

The patriarch of the Hui family, Hui Zhi, led the family out to greet Lu Yin.

Lu Yin lifted Hui Kong back up. “Brother, there’s no need to be so formal, is there?”

Hui Kong laughed merrily. “Formality can’t be discarded. Even elders from your Lu family must bow to you within the Heavens Sect.”

“That’s only in the Heavens Sect. Alright, Brother, I came here to confirm some information with your Hui family.”

“Of course, go right ahead.” Hui Kong was always a straightforward person, and he was pleased to see Lu Yin treat him in the same manner as before. This was Hui Kong’s little brother, Lu Yin.

However, when Lu Yin mentioned the name Hui Wu, Hui Kong’s expression changed drastically. “Why are you bringing him up?”

Lu Yin was caught off guard by the reaction. “What’s the problem with him?”

Hui Kong’s expression fell even further. “Hui Wu was the son of Progenitor Hui, which makes him one of our ancient ancestors. However, he was an uneducated troublemaker who misused Progenitor Hui’s influence to create problems everywhere. Finally, Progenitor Hui gave his son a harsh punishment, confining him within the Daosource Sect. His crimes were so extreme that our family nearly disowned him. If not because of our respect for Progenitor Hui, Hui Wu would have absolutely been struck from our family records.”

Lu Yin now understood why Qing Ping had not been able to find out almost anything about Hui Wu. He was Progenitor Hui’s son, and Hui Kong’s explanation filled in the rest.

“Why are you suddenly asking about Hui Wu?” Hui Kong was curious.

Lu Yin did not intend to share the truth with the Hui family, but he also did not want to make things up or lie to Hui Kong. “Please forgive me, Brother, but I can’t tell you.”

Hui Kong smiled. “That doesn’t matter. Just tell me whenever you can.”

“Of course, Brother. I would like to know everything your family knows about Hui Wu,” Lu Yin stated.

Hui Kong nodded. “While nothing more than Hui Wu’s name is mentioned in our family records, his deeds were saved down. Here, let me show you.”

Lu Yin was soon looking at a copy of the Hui family’s records that they kept hidden from outsiders. At the very bottom, Hui Wu’s information was kept.

Hui Wu was the son of Progenitor Hui, and shortly after he was born, his mother had died. Progenitor Hui had then gone into seclusion for a century, and by the time he emerged, Hui Wu had already grown to become an adult.

At that time, the strongest cultivator in the Hui family other than Progenitor Hui had merely been an Envoy, which had practically no significance in the Fifth Mainland.

The Hui family had treated the birth of Hui Wu like the arrival of a deity, exalting him to the heavens without offering him any guidance. This had spoiled him and caused him to develop a very willful personality that had created numerous issues throughout the Fifth Mainland.

Lu Yin carefully reviewed the accounts of the various incidents, most of which were nothing more than the acts of an arrogant youth and were not too terrible. However, one certain act had caused Hui Wu to be imprisoned within the Daosource Sect and nearly disowned by the Hui family, and it had occurred in the Fifth Mainland’s Daosource Sect. The man had insulted the statue of the Origin Progenitor. “You are a sinner, and you led all of mankind astray.”

Hui Wu’s insult was not merely targeted at the Daosource Sect, but also the Origin Progenitor, who was revered as the origin of all human cultivation.

The utterance of those words had shaken the entire Daosource Sect, and Lu Tianyi had personally imprisoned Hui Wu. The man had been condemned to imprisonment for the rest of his life, and he had not been released even after Progenitor Hui emerged from seclusion. When the Progenitor learned of what had happened, he simply made a brief visit to the Daosource Sect and then left without another word. From that moment on, the name of Hui Wu became a taboo for the members of the Hui family.

The name “Hui Wu” was never mentioned after that, and the Hui family lost an ancestor. It was during the Daosource Sect era that elites from all walks of life had competed for supremacy and when the Perennial World had split away from the Fifth Mainland. None of these events had anything to do with Hui Wu. From the records of that era, it was as though the man had completely disappeared.

Lu Yin looked up. “Brother, what happened to Hui Wu during the Daosource Sect?”

Hui Kong shook his head. “I don’t know. No one ever dared to mention the matter. At the time, no one from the Hui family dared to question Progenitor Hui, so nothing was asked until after Progenitor Hui vanished and the Technocracy appeared. Now, even Progenitor Hui is rarely mentioned, let alone Hui Wu.”

Lu Yin stared at Hui Kong. “Brother, if it’s possible, I would like to see the Hui family’s Golden Meteors battle technique.”

Hui Kong was surprised. “Golden Meteors?”

Lu Yin nodded.

Hui Kong felt quite puzzled. “Of course I can show it to you, but given your current abilities, Golden Meteors won’t be of much help to you.”

Lu Yin wanted to observe the Golden Meteors battle technique because of what he learned from Xu Wuwei and Qing Ping.

When Aeternus had sent the True God Guard Captains to attack the Five Spirits Alliance and the Luna Alliance, Lu Yin had gathered a group of experts from the Sixverse Association to target the captains. Xu Wuwei had faced off against Marquis Wu, and he had shared details of the battle with Lu Yin. What caught Lu Yin’s notice the most was the fact that, when he used divine energy, it had formed meteors that fell from the sky. Aside from the one technique, Marquis Wu had never used divine energy for anything else.

During the invasion of the Scourge, Marquis Wu had used the technique again against Lu Yin’s Senior Brother Qing Ping.

The technique had to be Golden Meteors, simply infused with divine energy.

Brother Hui Kong had previously mentioned to Lu Yin that Golden Meteors was a technique that could be cultivated over time. The longer a person cultivated the technique, the greater the power that could be unleashed. Hui Kong had personally cultivated Golden Meteors in the Technocracy, and when he used it, he had forced Wang Shang to retreat. If it was possible to cultivate Golden Meteors with divine energy, then could Marquis Wu really be Hui Wu, and could he have diverted all of his divine energy into Golden Meteors in order to personally remain uncorrupted by the divine energy?

Both Xu Wuwei and Qing Ping had said that they had never seen any trace of divine energy on Marquis Wu himself. The True God Guard Captain all had to be able to cultivate divine energy, and that included people like Mu Ji, who had been submerged beneath a lake of divine energy for hundreds of years. Thus, diverting divine energy to Golden Meteors seemed like a reasonable way for Marquis Wu to prove that he could cultivate divine energy and become a True God Guard Captain.

This was why Lu Yin wanted to check if it was indeed possible to cultivate divine energy externally with Golden Meteors.

It was not long before he saw the battle technique.

The Hui family’s Golden Meteors was similar to voidforce energy. However, while people from the Voidforce Universe cultivated voidforce puppets, which contained a large amount of voidforce energy that could be used during battle, Golden Meteors was a technique that could be cultivated freely without a connection to anything.

Lu Yin felt that Golden Meteors seemed superior to cultivating voidforce puppets, as it was possible to create a tool separate from the cultivator through sheer power. Not only that, but a single attack could be released when needed, or an entire barrage. It could be a shocking tactic when used.

“Was this battle technique created by Progenitor Hui?” Lu Yin marveled.

“Yes. Our Hui family did not have this technique before Progenitor Hui. This is a legacy that he left to us, much like the Hui Secret Art.”

Lu Yin commented, “Who said that Progenitor Hui wasn’t any good at combat? He simply used a different style from Progenitor Chen.”

Hui Kong proudly agreed, “Exactly!”

Lu Yin was speechless, as he had not been offering a pure compliment. From what Lu Yin understood, Golden Meteors was perfect for ambushes or sneak attacks. If it was impossible to defeat an opponent, then one could lure them to where Golden Meteors had been cultivated and release everything at once. Who could withstand such an assault?

Progenitor Chen and Progenitor Ku fought openly and honorably, but Progenitor Hui’s methods had been different. Lu Yin did not know how else to put it.

Lu Yin’s cultivation meant that he was able to understand Golden Meteors with just a glance.

He closed his eyes and simulated the technique in his mind, which let him quickly understand that it was not impossible to cultivate Golden Meteors with divine energy. However, in order to do that, the cultivator’s body needed to serve as a vessel, because the power that created the Golden Meteors needed to come from the cultivator themselves.

This meant that divine energy had to travel through a person’s body. It was debatable whether or not Hui Wu was under the control of divine energy.

As for Wang Xiaoyu, both Lu Yin’s Senior Brother Qing Ping and Progenitor Chen regarded the woman as trustworthy, but that was before she had become a True God Guard Captain. She had since cultivated divine energy, so could Wang Xiaoyu still be trusted?

Lu Yin thought about things for a moment, but then gave a wry smile. He himself cultivated divine energy, and yet he was doubting others.

No matter what, it was necessary to first meet with Marquis Wu. Since the Marquis wished to meet Lu Yin, he needed to go in person, regardless of if the Aeternals were setting a trap.

Lu Yin left the Neoverse and returned to the Heavens Sect. Once there, he led his senior brothers, Qing Ping and Mu Xie, to the Lu Sanctum. Once they were all in front of Lu Tianyi, Lu Yin opened the cosmic door. “Ancestor, if there’s danger on the other side, things could become troublesome.”

Lu Tianyi was staring at the cosmic door. “Are you returning to the Scourge?”

“We’re going to go meet someone,” Lu Yin replied before passing through the cosmic door. Qing Ping and Mu Xie followed right behind him.

After passing through the cosmic door, Lu Yin found himself on a desolate planet that was covered with weeds. There were strange insects crawling about and a dark sky above. This planet was far away from its sun.

He saw the name “Hui Wu” written in large characters on the ground, as though the author had been afraid that they would be overlooked.

Not knowing when the other party would arrive, Lu Yin released his domain to search the nearby area.

Mu Xie ventured out to scout the area.

He returned days later. “There are no humans in this universe, only astral beasts. The strongest are barely capable of moving through outer space.”

Lu Yin nodded. “In that case, this shouldn’t be a trap. Let’s wait. We just invaded the Scourge, so it won’t be easy for any of the True God Guard Captains to leave anytime soon.”

They waited for half a month.

After that, all three men simultaneously looked in the same direction, as they had sensed someone approaching.

As the figure arrived, Lu Yin’s eyes flickered. Sure enough, it was Marquis Wu.

Aeternus had stationed twelve Semi-Progenitor-level cultivators, known as the Twelve Marquises, on the Perennial World’s rear battlefield. Marquis Wu had served as their leader, and Wang Xiaoyu had been right below him.

The Twelve Marquises had fought against the Perennial World for many years, right up until Lu Yin discovered Undying God’s Semi-Progenitor avatar, Liu Song. That discovery had prompted Undying God to force his way into the Perennial World with his real body. Ultimately, Aeternus’s forces had been driven out of the Perennial World, and the Twelve Marquises had also retreated, though nearly half of them had perished in the process.

Marquis Wu had been the leader of the Twelve Marquises, but Lu Yin had never met the man before.

“Marquis Wu?” Lu Yin called out.

The man landed on the planet and faced Lu Yin. “Dao Monarch Lu, it has been a long time.”

“Who are you?” Lu Yin asked.

Marquis Wu stared at Lu Yin. “Hui Wu.”

“Progenitor Hui’s son?”

“Exactly.”

“How did you become one of Aeternus’s Twelve Marquis? On top of that, how did you become one of the True God Guard Captains?”
