Chapter 3095: Completion

Lu Yin remained silent as his hand inched closer to the young man.

Suddenly, the young man pulled out a long spear that he thrust straight at Lu Yin as he whipped around.

Lu Yin arched a brow while countering the spear. The young man had just attacked with Da Hui’s Returning Spear, which was unique to the man. Just what was the connection between the two?

The spear narrowly missed Lu Yin, and it instead shattered the void.

The sight of his failed attack caused the young man\'s face to turn ashen. Lu Yin grabbed the man’s shoulder and squeezed, causing an intense pain to run through the young man\'s body. He froze as he let out a cry of agony and dropped the spear.

"Senior, spare me! Please, spare me!" the young man begged through the pain.

Lu Yin let go, and the young man gasped for air as he reflexively took a step back. However, he did not try to escape again. He knew that it would be useless to even try.

The next time he glanced at Lu Yin, fear filled his eyes.

"Who are you?" Lu Yin asked again.

The young man did not dare refuse to answer again. "This junior is Ye Sheng, a cultivator from this universe."

"Aeternus?" Lu Yin demanded.

"No, I’m not part of Aeternus. Senior, are you from Aeternus?" the young man asked nervously.

Lu Yin gave the young man a sly look. "What do you think?"

Ye Sheng\'s expression changed. He was not sure of how to respond.

"How have you cultivated to such a level? You\'ve become a peak powerhouse, but you don’t possess even close to the corresponding strength and ability," Lu Yin continued to ask, very curious about this.

Ye Sheng hesitated.

Lu Yin did not push, and he instead simply stared at the youth.

"I won\'t try to hide things from you, Senior. All of my cultivation is from my master," Ye Sheng ultimately confessed.

Lu Yin’s eyes narrowed. "From your master? Are you saying that he raised you up to this level?"

"Yes," Ye Sheng replied respectfully.

Lu Yin stared even more intently. "How did he do it?"

"I don\'t know how to explain that, but if you are interested, Senior, I can take you to meet my master," Ye Sheng offered.

He said this for a simple reason; Ye Sheng was trying to subtly threaten Lu Yin to stay alive. The intimation was that killing him would create a powerful enemy.

Lu Yin had never actually thought of killing Ye Sheng. The young man’s ability to use Da Hui\'s Progenitor’s world and battle techniques was too bizarre. It should be impossible for two identical Progenitor’s worlds to exist.

Unless it was the same person. Was Ye Sheng Da Hui? Of course not.

Lu Yin observed Ye Sheng\'s respectful demeanor. "Is your master very powerful?"

"Yes," Ye Sheng replied instantly.

"However, if your master can\'t find me to get revenge, then that strength is useless," Lu Yin stated coldly.

Ye Sheng started to panic. "Senior, this junior has never done anything to offend you! You... there\'s no need to treat a junior like this! If you spare me, Senior, this junior promises that my master will reward you handsomely."

Lu Yin\'s gaze turned icy. "I\'ll ask you once more. How did he do it?"

Ye Sheng hesitated, but when he looked back at Lu Yin and saw his dangerously cold eyes, the young man’s heart trembled. He softly answered, "It’s true that my master helped me gain this strength. He did so through... symbiotic corpses."

Lu Yin frowned. "Symbiotic corpses?"

Ye Sheng closed his eyes. "Yes. When a powerful corpse is found, a symbiotic fusion can occur, merging the corpse\'s strength with your own, allowing you to obtain the corpse\'s power."

Lu Yin was shocked. "Such a method exists?"

Ye Sheng sighed bitterly. "If you don’t believe me, Senior, you can meet my master and speak to him yourself. This method was created by my master. My master\'s name is... Ye Wu."

Lu Yin stared at Ye Sheng for a long moment. Symbiotic corpses seemed to let a living person obtain the power of a corpse, but just the thought of doing so was nauseating. Did that mean that a person’s consciousness would be transferred into the corpse? No, that did not seem to be right. Ye Sheng should have symbiotically fused with Da Hui’s corpse, but Ye Sheng was still a very young man. How did it work?

This was quite peculiar.

Despite the myriad cultivation methods in existence, Lu Yin had never imagined that a method like symbiotic corpses would exist.

Could a cultivation method with such evil implications be conceived or accepted by a normal person?

"Did you gain your current strength from the corpse of the peak powerhouse that you symbiotically fused with?" Lu Yin asked.

"Yes. His name was Da Hui. He was a candidate my master picked out long ago. He happened to die recently, so my master symbiotically fused his corpse with my body. However, neither me nor my master killed the man," Ye Sheng clarified.

Of course Lu Yin was well aware of this, as he had been the one to kill Da Hui.

Fortunately, Kong Ji’s body had been taken away, or else Ye Sheng might have symbiotically fused with that man instead.

However, this process could not actually be that easy. There were limits to every cultivation method, and something like these symbiotic corpses, which seemingly allowed a person to ascend to the heavens in a single bound, was beyond ordinary methods.

"Why are you here?" Lu Yin inquired.

Ye Sheng was quick to answer, "This meteorite was once the home of a certain people. My master asked me to check on them, but when I found it, it was already an empty shell. Nothing was left. I didn’t know how to tell this to my master, so I’ve been staying around here, and that also happened to be when you arrived."

"Your master asked you to look for this meteorite?"

"Yes. It was home to one of this universe’s civilizations. Even after they were defeated, my master had some interactions with their people, and he was unable to bear to see them be completely destroyed. He asked me to come here and keep an eye on them and to contact him if any problems appeared."

Lu Yin nodded. If this was true, then while Ye Sheng’s master\'s cultivation method seemed rather despicable, it was possible that the man himself was not a terrible person.

"I don\'t know how to tell my master what happened. I’ve been using this time to search for any clues, but I’ve only found one. When the meteorite passed near a planet, the inhabitants saw it, and they mentioned something that might help me give an explanation to my Master."

“What?”

“When the meteorite went by that planet, it was enveloped within a black cloud.”

Lu Yin was quite surprised by this. "A black cloud?"

Ye Sheng nodded. "The civilization that lived in the meteorite was completely destroyed, and that black cloud might have something to do with their disappearance."

Lu Yin stared at Ye Sheng. "When did this happen?"

Ye Sheng gave the time, and Lu Yin calculated some things. The civilization was erased right before the Divine Selection. Could Xu Jin, the ruler of the Second Scourge, have destroyed the civilization before he went to the Third Scourge? That did not seem impossible.

"Which powerhouse did your master symbiotically fuse with?" Lu Yin asked, curious.

He was suddenly reminded of the Sixth Mainland’s Justice Manor and how they controlled corpses as puppets in battle. Their methods seemed somewhat similar to these symbiotic corpses. If Justice Manor managed to obtain the symbiotic corpse method, Lu Yin wondered how excited they would become.

Of course, Lu Yin would never help Justice Manor obtain such a cultivation method. These symbiotic corpses were something that should never exist.

While there were no right or wrong cultivation methods, symbiotic corpses were something that would be extremely difficult for most people to accept.

The Lu family’s Champions’ Stage was already something that instigated hate and revulsion in many others, so their reaction to something like symbiotic corpses could only be imagined.

Ye Sheng thought back, "I don\'t know which powerhouse my master symbiotically fused with. I only saw Master fight once, which was when he fought off the master of the corpse that I fused with. He’s one of Aeternus’s powerhouses."

Kong Ji? Da Hui was a disciple of Kong Ji.

The fact that Ye Sheng\'s master was able to fight against Kong Ji meant that he had to be a sequence powerhouse.

Was that man the reason why Lu Yin had been sent to this universe by Mister Mu? That was not very likely. Mister Mu most likely would not accept a cultivation method like symbiotic corpses.

Lu Yin considered meeting Ye Wu, but he could not go alone.

He placed Ye Sheng in a Zenith Mountain and took him back to Heavens Sect. After that, Lu Yin went to find Mu Xie and asked him to reach out to Mu Ke. Lu Yin wanted the Arborean to accompany him to meet with Ye Wu, just to be safe.

...

Figures stumbled along the Scourge’s dead ground. They moved stiffly and roamed about aimlessly.

The ruins of many tall towers could be seen, representing the land’s past glory.

Shattered cosmic doors littered the ground.

This was the First Scourge, and even its rivers of divine energy had been destroyed and scattered. Far off in the distance, the Aeternus Kingdoms had similarly suffered terrible destruction.

The First Scourge had been invaded multiple times, and it was no longer as prosperous as it had once been.

One day, a figure descended from the black Mother Tree to land in the First Scourge.

This person\'s arrival instantly drew the attention of many of the First Scourge’s powerhouses.

Progenitor Xi looked up. "Has he arrived?"

A short distance away, Shao Yin was feeling rather torn. He had failed to pass the Divine Selection, though that failure did not impact his status as one of the First Scourge’s Seven Skygods. Still, the failure was a stain on his reputation, as it was clear that Shao Yin had only become one of the Seven Skygods because of Progenitor Xi’s consent.

On the other hand, the new arrival had passed the Divine Selection, becoming fully qualified to replace one of the Three Pillars and Six Skies should any of them fall. Ji Luo was next in line to become one of the top figures in all of Aeternus.

Many people had already expected Ji Luo to pass the Divine Selection. It was known that he possessed the necessary strength, and if not for the man’s gratitude towards Corpse God on behalf of his race, how could Ji Luo have ever agreed to serve as the Sixth Scourge’s guardian for Corpse God?

Having passed the Divine Selection, Ji Luo made his way to the First Scourge. Once there, with Progenitor Xi’s approval, the man would become one of the Seven Skygods.

"I officially declare that the First Scourge’s Shaman God and Undying God of the Seven Skygods are now replaced by Ji Luo and Shao Yin," Progenitor Xi announced. Shao Yin was not the only one standing before the woman, as the True God Guard Captains were also present.

The First Scourge had been weakened to an unprecedented degree. For a time, the positions of the Seven Skygods had been unfilled, which was a blemish on the First Scourge’s reputation.

Wang Fan had died at the Immemorial Citadel’s battlefield. Progenitor Xi did not care about the man’s death. It was possible for anyone who participated in the Divine Selection to die.

Shao Yin was incredibly frustrated by his failure to pass the Divine Selection, but there was nothing that he could do about it. There had simply been too many powerful enemies present at the Immemorial Citadel’s battlefield, and each opponent that Shao Yin had encountered had been intimidating. There was no denying that Ji Luo was much stronger. After all, he had freely roamed about the battlefield surrounding the Immemorial Citadel, and he had even killed multiple human powerhouses. Ji Luo was an incredibly ruthless individual.

"When can we attack the Sixverse Association?" Ji Luo asked. He said as little as possible, but his message was clear; he wanted to avenge Corpse God.

Progenitor Xi calmly replied, "There’s no rush. Aeternus is preparing a proper plan."

Before long, a dark cloud descended, as Xu Jin had arrived. "You\'ve offered such a grand gesture and sought us out. Tell me, are you about to announce a Divine Commandment?"

From the other direction, Arrow God approached. Her long, crimson hair flew behind her, exposing her stunning face as Shao Yin looked over.

After that, Di Qiong arrived. He looked quite calm.

"Di Qiong, give me Wu Tian. Even after all this time, you still haven’t gotten anything useful from him, just a bit of power. What\'s the point of keeping him?" Xu Jin asked mockingly.

Di Qiong replied in a cold, aloof tone. "It would appear that your Second Scourge also failed."

"It was the Divine Selection. If it were easy to pass, our existence would mean nothing,” Xu Jin replied nonchalantly. "Speaking of which, it seems that your Third Scourge’s Di Xia also died there."

This comment made Di Qiong rather uncomfortable. No one had seen Ye Bo die on the Immemorial Citadel’s battlefield, but he also had not returned. There was a 90% chance that the man was dead.
