Chapter 3107: Lu Yin And The Origin Progenitor

The Scourge Occupation was like an unkillable monster. They lacked powerful battle techniques, but neither did they need them. Their only goal was pure destruction. Whenever they exhausted their energy, they would return, drain a bit more from their ancestor, and then immediately resume their rampage. Every attack was delivered at full power, which meant that even powerful experts like Ji Luo and Shao Yin had no choice but to retreat.

Finally, the massive battle came to an end.

Aeternus had initiated a massive campaign with the start of a Divine Commandment, but the moment the Scourge Occupation had appeared to help the Nine-Star Civilization, everything had shifted away from the Aeternals’ direction and initiative. Aeternus was not able to end the battle. That was something that only Lu Yin could do.

Divine Commandment was intended to be one of Aeternus’s most powerful campaigns, but humanity refused to fall for such a thing again. Divine Commandments could no longer pose an existential threat to humanity.

Humans were also able to unite forces across multiple parallel universes.

Of course, at this moment, everyone wanted to know what had happened to Lu Yin. He was the only person capable of uniting the various human civilizations. That was not something that the Great Sovereign or Lu Yuan could accomplish. While some people possessed amazing personal power, that did not make them all-powerful. Lu Yin had his own methods and personal charisma.

If Lu Yin died, humanity would suffer a fatal blow.

His death did not only concern humanity, but also Aeternus.

...

Mister Mu carried Lu Yin through outer space, and Lu Yin had no idea where they were headed.

"Every time I see you, you’ve changed, my disciple," Mister Mu muttered. It seemed that he was speaking to himself but also addressing Lu Yin. "At first, I was able to clearly see your path and power, but you’ve moved beyond my sight.

"Even though we, master and disciple, have met infrequently, each of our meetings has been extraordinary. You’ve advanced too quickly and climbed too high. There are times when even I can’t help you. All I can do is help you forge your own path.

"You aren’t dead. I know that, but I can’t save you. There’s only one person who can, and you’ve seen them before, at the Immemorial Citadel."

Lu Yin was shocked. The Origin Progenitor?

If Lu Yin was not mistaken, Mister Mu was taking him to the Origin Progenitor. Who else could save Lu Yin when not even Mister Mu could?

"After all, I don’t belong to this place."

Lu Yin grew puzzled. What did that mean?

Mister Mu did not elaborate, simply continuing to tear through the void. Sequence strings swirled around the two men, all of them converging in a single direction. They all led to the Immemorial Citadel.

Mister Mu glanced at Lu Yin. "Ironically, after I gave you those cosmic doors so that you could join forces with other civilizations, Aeternus initiated a Divine Commandment right as you succeeded. If you had been even a bit slower, we humans would have been caught off guard by the Divine Commandment.

"Unfortunately, you also caught Yong Heng’s attention. He attacked you himself, and while I thought that that might be possible when I learned of the battles in the Scourges, I was still a step too late.

"We’re here."

Once again, Lu Yin laid eyes on the Immemorial Citadel. While it had not been that long since his last visit, this time, he was arriving as a member of humanity.

There was no predicting how the future would play out. Lu Yin had assumed that he would not see the Immemorial Citadel again for a very, very long time.

The battle surrounding the Immemorial Citadel was as awe-inspiring as ever. Even if Lu Yin only caught a fleeting glance of the battlefield, he had the impression of something dancing along a blade’s edge. He was instantly reminded of his previous visit.

Aeternus’s Divine Selection required participants to survive at the Immemorial Citadel for a month. Anyone who could accomplish that would be qualified to replace the Three Pillars and Six Skies, but very few had ever passed the Divine Selection.

Mister Mu carried Lu Yin into the depths of the Immemorial Citadel. They crossed over some ancient blocks to reach a place that had left an indelible mark on Lu Yin’s memory.

He was once again seeing something that had once felt like a scene from a dream.

An armless person with one knee on the floor held countless sequence strings in their mouth. Like this, they served as the foundation of the Immemorial Citadel, bearing the weight of the entire city.

It was the Origin Progenitor.

The sight once again left Lu Yin feeling deeply moved.

The Origin Progenitor had lost both arms, and yet he was still the pillar that held up the sky. He supported the Immemorial Citadel, and symbolically, the entire megaverse through the endless sequence strings he held.

The Immemorial Citadel was the most intense battlefield in existence. Aeternus had tasked many individuals to destroy universes to eliminate individual sequence strings, but the Immemorial Citadel was both the origin and endpoint of all the sequence strings that connected the countless parallel universes of the megaverse.

Destroying the Immemorial Citadel would also destroy countless parallel universes.

Was the Origin Progenitor still alive? No one had ever given Lu Yin a definitive answer.

The Great Sovereign believed that the Origin Progenitor was dead, as did the Aeternals. On the other hand, Lu Yuan believed that his master was still alive.

Even after laying eyes on the Origin Progenitor during his previous visit, Lu Yin still had no idea if the man was alive or dead.

Finally, Mister Mu was providing him with an answer.

“I’ll leave this to you,” Mister Mu stated as he set Lu Yin down and left the underground chamber.

In the dim room beneath the Immemorial Citadel, Lu Yin faintly saw a blurred figure that did not move at all. Was the Origin Progenitor really still alive?

“Little one, are you one of Loam’s descendants?” A gentle voice reached his ears.

Lu Yin was startled. The Origin Progenitor really was alive.

“That fellow, Yong Heng, can be quite ruthless, causing such harm to someone as young as you. Let me take a look.”

Given that he was lying on the ground and completely unable to move, Lu Yin was only able to make out a small corner of his surroundings. Even so, he saw the Origin Progenitor move.

Lu Yin could not even guess how many years it had been since the Origin Progenitor had last moved, but dust fell as the sound of cracking stone filled the room.

He knew that the Origin Progenitor was looking at him.

“Just as that old geezer Mu said, no one can offer you guidance in your cultivation path, not even me. I do look forward to seeing what you’ll become when you break through and become a Progenitor. Maybe you’ll be the first of all of us to overcome Dukkha? Haha.

“Yong Heng’s attack could have killed you, but you managed to survive thanks to Big Thug’s Heaven’s Sight. Big Thug is such a good child. I noticed you when you disguised yourself as one of the Aeternals’ representatives for their Divine Selection and came to the battlefield here at the Immemorial Citadel. Heaven’s Sight isn’t something that just anyone can obtain. It’s not just a power, as it also has a personality. It will fit with some people, but it is completely incompatible with others.

“The fact that you were able to merge with Heaven’s Sight means that you’re also a good child, just like Big Thug.

“Old Mu told me that you attacked Aeternus in response to their Divine Commandment. Well done. Loam once acted as humanity’s flagbearer, but his descendant is even more impressive, haha.”

Lu Yin just listened to the Origin Progenitor, who seemed to be rambling. Was it impossible to save Lu Yin without all this talking? He sounded like a reminiscing old man.

Still, some of what Lu Yin heard was rather comforting.

Even so, he was quite anxious. War could break out between humanity and the Aeternals at any moment, and without Lu Yin to oversee things, it was possible for the situation to spiral out of control, even with the strength of Lu Yuan and several other powerhouses.

Lu Yin had Possessed Xu Jin, and from that, he had come to understand the details of the Divine Commandment.

He had learned that Aeternus had declared two Divine Commandments in the past. The first had shattered the Heavens Sect at its peak, leading to the destruction of four Mainlands. The second had created a hole in human history.

There had been outstandingly talented humans who had risen to power between the Heavens Sect era and the Daosource Sect era, such as a generation of the Nine Mountains and Eight Seas. There might have even been some who were as powerful as the Three Realms and Six Daos.

However, the second Divine Commandment had erased that entire era, leaving no trace behind.

The second Divine Commandment had not only targeted the Origin Universe, but it had also wiped out human civilizations in many parallel universes.

The first Divine Commandment had been carried out over a long period of time, as there were considerable intervals between the destruction of each Mainland. The first Divine Commandment encompassed all of Aeternus’s efforts during the time that it took the four Mainlands to be shattered.

Although it had lasted for a much shorter period of time, the second Divine Commandment had stretched into the era of Progenitor Chen and the Nine Mountains and Eight Seas. That Divine Commandment had erased the previous era and part of the Daosource Sect era.

The destruction of the Fifth Mainland’s Daosource Sect and the war with the Sixth Mainland were both part of the second Divine Commandment, though those two events also marked its end. The most intense period of fighting had been before the Daosource Sect era even started.

In the current era, Aeternus had announced their third Divine Commandment and launched an united offensive against humanity. Every Divine Commandment had led to the death of countless creatures, as well as the extermination of entire civilizations.

The second Divine Commandment had erased humanity’s knowledge of an entire era.

The Daosource Sect had managed to survive, but the greatest powerhouses of the previous era had all perished. If not for that, people like Lu Tianyi would not be the only ones who had lived from the Heavens Sect era to the Daosource Sect era. Many powerhouses from the Celestial Frost Sect and Shenwu’s Sky had been killed by the second Divine Commandment.

Humanity did not know of the Divine Commandments, and they simply thought that the Aeternals had launched major offensives.

Not recognizing a war was a terrible tragedy, and it was also a reason for losing.

Lu Yin had learned about the Divine Commandments when Aeternus had declared their third one. This meant that there would be a fight to the death, and he wanted to quickly return so that he could oversee the situation.

“You’re lying on the floor. Being unable to move must be tiring. Don’t worry and just wait a bit. I haven’t used this for years, so I need to find it. Are you asking what I’m looking for? You’ll recognize it when you see it.”

Lu Yin was speechless. When had he asked anything?

“I heard you have four inner worlds and that one of them had the appearance of my Primaldust during your Semi-Progenitor tribulation. That’s right, you guessed it. That’s what I’m looking for.”

If he could move, Lu Yin would have immediately mentioned that he had guessed no such thing.

“Losing both of my arms has severely weakened me. I can still fight, but revealing myself would attract some rather troublesome enemies, and I can’t defeat them with my current strength. That’s why I haven’t taken action in so many years. Still, don’t underestimate me. I’m quite strong.”

Lu Yin internally acknowledged that he had never underestimated the Origin Progenitor.

“Are you wondering why I’m looking for my weapon? Well, that’s so that I can heal you. Yong Heng struck your head, and the wound he made is permanent. Normally, you’d be dead, and there’d be no need to try to close it. Burning the body would be best, as it would be less of an eyesore.”

Lu Yin felt helpless. He was still alive, so how was he an eyesore?

“But since you’re not dead, things are a bit troublesome.”

All Lu Yin could see was the Origin Progenitor’s back. The old man’s incessant chatter caused Lu Yin’s initially high expectations to quickly wane. It felt as if the Origin Progenitor regretted that Lu Yin had not actually died.

“You’re not dead, but that hole in your head is like a dam with a leak. It needs to be plugged up. The best way to do that is with my weapon, Primaldust. I haven’t used it in years, which is why it’s reluctant to cooperate, but just wait a moment. You don’t need to worry.”
