Chapter 3025: Formidable Enemy

Progenitor Xi fought against Lu Tianyi, only to learn that his Law of Undoing was just as oppressive as her own sword slashes. The man was able to stop every one of the woman’s attacks.

The Scourge shattered beneath their clashes, and corpse kings fell from the sky like rain, recklessly attacking everyone from the Sixverse Association.

Mu Ke hefted his saber and sliced through the void, severing the sky above the Scourge.

Chen Le loosed arrow after arrow as he dealt with Progenitor-level corpse kings.

There were over forty such corpse kings, and they went after Arrow Sage, Food Sage, Bureau Director Gan, Xu Heng, and the others. Lu Yin’s goal for this battle was to deplete most of the Scourge’s combat strength.

A lotus leaf appeared within one of the beams of light that rose into the sky, and it was followed by a rotund golden belly. Astral Anura had arrived.

The toad instantly took the opportunity to start haggling. “Oh, what an unusually lively battle! Let’s negotiate the price, Aeternus. Double the normal fee.”

Lu Yin’s expression fell. “Lord Xu, I’ll leave him to you.”

Lord Xu looked at Astral Anura, the man’s face more serious than ever before. This creature was in the process of overcoming Dukkha, which theoretically placed it on par with the Great Sovereign and True God. “Remember, if I start to be overpowered, send me reinforcements. I might not be Astral Anura’s opponent.”

“I understand,” Lu Yin responded gravely.

Astral Anura had appeared in the past, and while the toad had never fought, just his presence had been enough to eliminate many crises for Aeternus. It was for that reason alone that Lu Yin had taken measures to counter Astral Anura.

“Wonderful! Make sure you keep a good bit for the future. Humanity seems to be growing stronger, hahaha!” Astral Anura laughed as he adjusted his straw hat and prepared to fight against Lord Xu and his overwhelming amount of voidforce energy. A wave of the lotus leaf dispersed the gathered energy. “Leave!”

A violent gust scattered the voidforce energy. This single wave of Astral Anura’s lotus leaf also sent the approaching turtle shell flying back with a bang.

Lord Xu tensed. He wanted to surround Astral Anura with voidforce energy so that he could use the Thermometer of Life.

Astral Anura bellowed, and Lord Xu was forced to abandon his strategy.

The toad kicked a foot, clearing a hole in the surrounding voidforce energy.

Lord Xu sucked in a sharp breath. There was no denying Astral Anura’s strength.

In the sky above, the voidforce energy moved like a tide, slamming towards Astral Anura. However, each slap of Astral Anura’s lotus leaf prevented the Thermometer of Life from forming.

However, even with Astral Anura’s participation, the Aeternals were unable to stop accruing gradual losses.

Lu Yin neutralized all five frenzied corpses, and more and more Progenitor-level corpse kings fell from the sky. The three peak traitor powerhouses had all died, and Marquis Wu was coughing up blood. Mu Ji was hiding, refusing to show himself while the Scourge was being completely overpowered.

Zhong Pan stepped out from behind Lu Yin, and the corpse king’s eyes rapidly changed colors before finally ending at the Specter Eye Transformation. As soon as his strength was enhanced, Zhong Pan punched at Lu Yin.

Lu Yin turned around. “Perfect timing.”

He used Inverse Step to move at the speed of time and dodge Zhong Pan’s punch. Infinity’s lines merged with Lu Yin’s body as he visualized the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant and used Extremes Must Be Reversed. A hundred punches were confined for a single attack to be released.

Bang!

The impact sent Zhong Pan flying. While the corpse king’s punch was powerful enough to compare to Lu Yin’s hundred punches that were confined through time, it could not even touch Lu Yin, as Zhong Pan had not been given the chance to directly clash with Lu Yin’s fist.

Zhong Pan crashed into a river of divine energy, shattering the riverbed at the bottom.

Lu Yin moved forward, using Inverse Step to move at the speed of time. As he moved forward, everything around him froze.

Suddenly, he felt a terrible sense of danger. “Junior Brother, watch out!”

Lu Yin narrowly avoided freezing up as sequence particles disrupted Inverse Step and stopped him from moving at the speed of time. Shao Yin had fired a beam at Lu Yin, attacking him from a distance.

Lu Yin looked over and met Shao Yin’s cold eyes.

That had been a very close call.

Mu Ke’s expression fell, as his oversight had allowed Shao Yin to attack Lu Yin. Mu Ke had underestimated Shao Yin. The former Sovereign’s strength could not compare to what it had been before.

“Senior Brother, Shao Yin has merged Extreme Yin and Extreme Yang together. He’s now nearly as strong as the Seven Skygods,” Lu Yin warned.

Mu Ke took a deep breath. “Leave him to me.”

In front of Lu Yin, Zhong Pan erupted from the ground, attacking once again. Despite having taken Lu Yin’s punch, Zhong Pan showed no significant injuries, and his physical might remained impressive.

In the past, Zhong Pan had been able to overwhelm Lu Yin with nothing more than physical strength. Lu Yin had struggled to even survive their first encounter. In the present, they had just competed in physical strength, but Lu Yin no longer felt that he was in any way inferior. Unfortunately, he had no time to waste in such contests on the current battlefield.

Lu Yin evaded Zhong Pan’s assault as though he were taking a stroll, and he even retaliated with his own time-confined punches. If one attack was insufficient, Lu Yin would attack twice. If two was not enough, he would attack twenty times. No matter how impressive Zhong Pan’s strength might be, it was not without limits.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

The impacts echoed through the void as Lu Yin repeatedly punched the same point on Zhong Pan’s chest. Finally, a crack appeared, and the marks from the punches could even be seen on Zhong Pan’s back.

Still, he was a corpse king, utterly fearless of even death and numb to pain. Zhong Pan lashed out at Lu Yin.

Lu Yin clenched a fist, wary of other enemies ambushing him as he prepared to land one final punch on Zhong Pan. This attack would be powerful enough to shatter him.

Zhong Pan leaped at Lu Yin as divine energy suddenly erupted from his body and covered him.

Lu Yin had forgotten that all of the True God Guard Captains were capable of cultivating divine energy. With this boost of divine energy, it would be much more difficult to kill Zhong Pan.

Lu Yin had no choice but to take out the slipper and settle things that way.

Zhong Pan released his divine energy with no intention of holding anything back. There was so much divine energy that Zhong Pan nearly resembled a frenzied corpse. His pupils vanished as he underwent a Pupilless Transformation.

There was a crack, and the void nearby cracked open, unable to withstand Zhong Pan’s pressure. Just his breathing suppressed the void, and when he raised his hand, afterimages appeared in the void as he pressed through multiple layers.

Lu Yin’s expression changed. A punch from Zhong Pan in this state was absolutely terrifying.

Zhong Pan let out a breath, and it swirled like a dragon, shattering the void. He shot forward, tearing through the void as he threw a punch at Lu Yin. It was an incredibly simple attack, but Lu Yin felt as though it were somehow inevitable. It felt like this punch was not aimed at just him, but at everything before Zhong Pan. It felt like the corpse king intended to destroy everything in his sight.

No matter if this punch was aimed at Lu Yin or a sequence powerhouse, no one could ignore this punch of Zhong Pan’s.

Every time Lu Yin evaded Zhong Pan’s previous attacks, he had not moved too far away, so he was still within range of the corpse king’s attack.

This punch was utterly terrifying.

In the end, Zhong Pan was just a corpse king, and surprisingly, Lu Yin was able to dodge the punch by traveling at the speed of time. While everything froze around Lu Yin, he was also able to do something else.

Right as Zhong Pan threw his punch, terrifying everyone in a particular direction, Lu Yin had already reached the corpse king’s side. The slipper slapped down onto Zhong Pan’s arm, and it not only stopped the punch that was in the middle of being thrown, but it also broke the corpse king’s arm.

Having his punch stopped mid-throw meant that Zhong Pan was not able to control himself, and he crashed forward. Lu Yin spun around and lashed out again with the slipper, striking Zhong Pan’s back and slamming him to the ground.

The slipper had been Enhanced multiple times, the last improvement had cost Lu Yin 6 trillion star essence, which was the repair price for each Book of Destiny. While this did not mean that the slipper was on the same level as the Books of Destiny, Lu Yin believed that there was not much of a difference in quality between them.

In other words, if the Books of Destiny represented Destiny, then the Enhanced slipper possessed a power equal to Destiny, which meant a powerhouse as strong as the Three Realms and Six Daos. That was not something that Zhong Pan could endure.

He might have been strengthened by divine energy, but that was not his own power.

Lu Yin would never dare to use the slipper against True God, as that would be seeking death.

The ground shattered. Zhong Pan was lying on the ground, unable to even move. His body had been split open by the slipper, and he was completely incapacitated and unable to rise to his feet.

Lu Yin exhaled. “We’ve fought several times. The first time, you completely overpowered me. But now, even if I had to use some items, you are no longer able to compare to my strength. This is the end.”

He then casually waved a hand, and a palm struck Zhong Pan’s head, executing him.

Yet another one of the True God Guard Captains had been eliminated. Even with the depths of Aeternus’s strength, they had not been able to fill all the positions of the True God Guard Captains after the event where Chong Gui was captured. With this, they were missing yet one more.

Lu Yin looked up at where Lord Xu was holding back Astral Anura and trying to kill the toad with the Thermometer of Life. The Voidlord was not succeeding, and he was barely able to block Astral Anura.

The battles between Ancestor Tianyi and Progenitor Xi, Senior Brother Mu Ke and Shao Yin, and the dual forces of the Fire Lord and Wood Lord against the Star Devourer all continued. However, the overall balance of the battle raging in the Scourge was leaning in humanity’s favor. After some time, the First Scourge would fall.

Lu Yin looked at the black Mother Tree. Would True God be able to stay in seclusion?

More and more Progenitor-level corpse kings were killed. There was no doubt that the First Scourge was suffering terrible losses from this attack.

Suddenly, Lu Yin looked over in a particular direction. It was where the shattered remains of the True God Guard Captains’ tall towers stood. Even so, one of the captains had never appeared: Mu Ji.

The Aeternals had sealed off the Scourge with a massive sourcebox array, so while the Scourge could be entered, no one could leave. That meant that Mu Ji should also be somewhere in the Scourge.

Heaven’s Sight swept through the area, and Lu Yin soon found the man.

In the direction that Lu Yin was looking, Mu Ji felt a surge of panic. He was hiding behind the ruins of a high tower, and yet he felt like he was being watched. He peeked through the ruins, and as he stared into the distance, his eyes met Lu Yin’s. Mu Ji’s expression changed drastically. This was very bad.

Lu Yin took a step forward, intending to chase after Mu Ji and kill him. The man had already managed to escape from Mu Ke once with his peculiar innate gift. The man had to be eliminated.

Suddenly, a terrible pressure fell upon the entire battlefield, and it caused everyone’s hearts to drop. Was the sky falling?

People looked up to see a figure emerging from the void to stand high in the sky above the Scourge.

Although this person was standing quietly in the sky, their presence altered the atmosphere of the entire battlefield. As he looked down, all who met his eyes felt their hearts quiver uncontrollably.

“Ancient God?” someone exclaimed.

“Gu Yizhi?”

The leader of the Seven Skygods, Ancient God, had appeared in the sky. This man had once been the Dao Monarch of the Heavens Sect’s Third Mainland. He was Gu Yizhi, one of the Three Realms and Six Daos.

Lu Yin’s pupils shrank to pinpricks. Gu Yizhi was joining the battle.

Lu Yin had been trying to hunt down the Seven Skygods or lure them out in order to kill them one by one, but he had never once hoped to find Gu Yizhi. The man was one of Ancestor Lu Yuan’s peers, and there was no one in this group who could take on Ancient God, regardless of his previous injuries. This was someone who could alter the outcome of the entire battle.
