Star Odyssey Chapter 2818: The Highest Stage

Chapter 2818: The Highest Stage

At this moment, Lu Yin could not see anything at all. Bai Xian'er was not using any power at all. However, the less that Lu Yin could see, the more determined he was to gain a clear understanding of the women.

Bai Xian'er smiled. "Of course I am no match for you, Brother Xiaoxuan."

Lu Yin frowned. "You’re one of the Great Sovereign’s disciples. Have you never even considered trying to save a bit of face for her? Sage Yuan was one of hers and was just killed by me, and I also just defeated Chu Jian, who wasn’t able to hurt me in the slightest. If you can’t help save the situation somewhat, the Great Sovereign might not be too happy about things.”

Bai Xian'er looked up at the Great Sovereign. "Master’s magnanimity is as vast as the universe. She won’t care about this. Besides..." She looked at Lu Yin with bright eyes, her smile steady and admiration readily apparent in her eyes. "I truly am not Brother Xiaoxuan's opponent, so forcing myself to do something will only serve to embarra.s.s Master even further."

Lu Yin looked away and rubbed his wrist. "Where did you have your Semi-Progenitor breakthrough?"

Bai Xian'er's smile grew sweeter than ever. "The Cyclic Universe."

"The stellular energy here seems to be the inverse of our own universe. How is a breakthrough possible here?"

"If there was no connection, how could the energies be inverted?"

This answer startled Lu Yin, and he turned back to stare at Bai Xian'er, finding that she was also staring at him. Everyone else was immersed in the Great Sovereign’s lecture, which meant that only the two of them were aware of what was happening at this moment.

Time pa.s.sed, yet time seemed to be nothing more than an illusion. Only these two people had any idea what they saw during that time.

Suddenly, a ray of dark red light flashed, and the very next moment, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths cracked. The Stairway to Heaven was split into two, and Evergreen Sage was ripped from the mainland.

The lecture instantly stopped, the Great Sovereign staring off into the distance. For the first time, anger appeared in her sacred eyes. "Aeternus, how dare you-"

Red light replaced everything, illuminating the entire Cyclic Universe.

Everyone's face was illuminated by that red light.

Lu Yin looked up and stared at the red sun that had appeared in shock. Was that divine energy?

The Aeternals had attacked the tea ceremony.

Mu Shen, Lord Xu, Great Elder Shan Gu, and all the other powerhouses stood up and looked beyond the area of the tea ceremony.

At this moment, all the peak powerhouses attending the tea ceremony, as well as any watching them throughout the Sixverse a.s.sociation, and even across the Endless Frontier, took action at this moment.

This attack had come suddenly and without any warning.

No one had expected Aeternus to suddenly attack during the Great Sovereign’s tea ceremony.

Nearly half of the Sixverse a.s.sociation’s peak powerhouses were attending the tea ceremony, and among them were the rulers of the Sixverse a.s.sociation’s member universes. Such a powerful lineup had never been openly attacked by the Aeternals before. At this moment, True G.o.d Wei Yi arrived.

"Tai Hong, it’s been a very long time since you and I last fought for real. Let’s reach a decision at this tea ceremony!" A cold voice spoke from a great distance. After the words were spoken, dark-red divine energy filled the sky, and a man stepped out of the sun.

The sun of divine energy was dazzling to look at. Lu Yin looked up, but the man’s arrival caused the divine energy to grow brighter and brighter, until it was difficult for Lu Yin to make out any of the man’s features.

"Don't look! Do you want to go blind?" Lord Wei shouted a warning to Lu Yin.

Lu Yin ducked his head. He had not even realized that two lines of b.l.o.o.d.y tears were flowing from the corners of his eyes. He had never noticed, and if not for Lord Wei’s warning, Lu Yin would have lost his eyes.

The Nine Heavens and Ten Earths trembled as one figure after another appeared outside the Heavenly Gate, accompanied by an endless and terrifying pressure.

"I'm so tired. I want to sleep."

"It's time to rearrange the megaverse. There is too much trash."

"Kakaka, it's finally time! We should have crashed this tea party a long time ago. It's disgusting."

"Whiteless G.o.d still hasn't come? I’m going to talk to her after this battle."

"Haha, who is that I see? Isn't that little Lu Yin? Have you already stepped onto the highest stage? Do you want me to show you mercy?"

"Kill."

Six voices came from six of the Seven SkyG.o.ds.

Countless people felt their scalps go numb. True G.o.d Wei Yi had led the Seven SkyG.o.ds to the Great Sovereign's tea ceremony. This was going to be an unprecedented battle.

Boom!

Divine energy surged, and a violent power swept out. The incredible pressure pushed against Lu Yin, forcing him back and suffocating him. True G.o.d Wei Yi and the Great Sovereign were fighting. With Heaven’s Sight, Lu Yin was able to see countless sequence particles filling the area. They permeated both the ground and the sky. These sequence particles belonged to both the Great Sovereign and the True G.o.d.

Lu Yin had never seen such an incredible display of sequence particles before.

Old Mo was the first master of sequence particles that Lu Yin had faced, but if Old Mo were compared to the current battlefield, his sequence particles would be like the light of fireflies beside the moon. There was simply no comparison, and yet the sequence particles that Lu Yin saw countered each other completely, preventing either side from influencing any of the surroundings.

Mu Shen stepped forward. "Gu Yizhi, my Arboreal Realm helped the Third Mainland on several occasions, and yet all we received in return was betrayal. I’ve sworn to kill you."

A purplish-black substance covered Ancient G.o.d’s body. "Then go ahead and try it."

Lord Xu let out a breath. "I will handle Forgotten Ruins G.o.d."

"Kakaka, do you think that you have a choice?" Shaman G.o.d’s doll appeared, only to s.h.i.+ft into the void.

Lord Xu turned around. "You’ve finally appeared!."

A card floated into the sky as Great Elder Shan Gu focused on Blackless G.o.d.

Forgotten Ruins G.o.d smiled sweetly. "With so many old guys here, who should I kill first?"

"I am your opponent." Lord Wei stepped forward.

The Sky-Devouring Nine Wolves appeared above Forgotten Ruins G.o.d’s head, and sequence particles spread out. "All by yourself?"

Lotuses bloomed in the void, moving closer to the world heads. "I’ll join. The Seven SkyG.o.ds are extremely difficult opponents."

Sovereign Ninth Lotus joined the battle.

A Spiral Domain, the Yin Yang Sword, and a white beard shot through the sky to attack Corpse G.o.d. Most of the Seven SkyG.o.ds already had opponents, while Corpse G.o.d alone was facing no one.

However, at that time, more figures stepped out of the void, and everyone's scalps went numb when they saw who had arrived. There were no less than twenty Progenitor-level corpse kings.

Lu Yin's pupils shrank sharply. Where had Aeternus obtained so many Progenitor-level corpse kings?

A wolf head shot through the sky, snapping at Lu Yin.

He quickly dodged with Inverse Step, realizing that Forgotten Ruins G.o.d was targeting him.

The wolf looked incredibly vicious, yet intelligence filled its eyes. It seemed to have Forgotten Ruins G.o.d’s smile on its face as it chased after Lu Yin.

The Invest.i.ture of the G.o.ds appeared over Lu Yin's head, and the summoned Leng Qing stepped out to slash a blade at the wolf head.

Just as the blade was about to make contact, Leng Qing disappeared, as did the Invest.i.ture of the G.o.ds. The wolf head’s open mouth descended upon Lu Yin.

He stared up at the approaching wolf head in a daze. How was this possible? What had happened to his Invest.i.ture of the G.o.ds? At some point in time, the wolf head’s sequence particles had touched Lu Yin, and at that moment, he had forgotten everything. He had forgotten about his Invest.i.ture of the G.o.ds, forgotten about his battle techniques and abilities, and even forgotten to defend himself. He could only stand in place and do nothing as the wolf head devoured him.

This not only happened to Lu Yin, but also to Lord Wei and Sovereign Ninth Lotus. Everyone targeted by a wolf head suffered the same fate.

The Sky-Devouring Nine Wolves was not just Forgotten Ruins G.o.d’s innate gift; it had also incorporated the woman’s sequence particles to produce a terrifying ability that could instantly s.h.i.+ft the tides of battle.

Simultaneously, at least five peak powerhouses were targeted by a wolf head and forced to the brink of death.

This was the power of the Seven SkyG.o.ds.

Lu Yin watched as the wolf head fell upon him. It was not that he was incapable of fighting back, but that he had simply forgotten to do so.

At this moment, someone moved in front of Lu Yin. The person was wearing a blindfold and held a saber in both hands as they released a slas.h.i.+ng attack.

This single slash cut through the sequence particles from the wolf head, while also slicing through the void and cutting the sequence particles that connected the Sky-Devouring Nine Wolves.

Still staring at the sky, Lu Yin clearly saw as the sequence particles were cut off.

It was Mu Ke.

"Senior Brother!" Lu Yin grew excited. Once again, he had been saved by his senior disciple brother.

Mu Ke looked extremely upset. "The Seven SkyG.o.ds possess strange abilities, and none of them have used their full strength yet. Be careful."

Lu Yin nodded. Despite knowing just how dangerous Forgotten Ruins G.o.d was, he had still almost been killed by her. This showed the true strength of the Seven SkyG.o.ds.

Forgotten Ruins G.o.d shook her head. "A troublesome guy just showed up. This is a bit of a problem. Little Lu Yin, just how many times can you escape during this war? Haha. But then again, what of it? You’ve lost your stage!"

Lu Yin gazed at Forgotten Ruins G.o.d with fear. This was an old monster.

Old Mo had led one of the Twelve Heavenly Gates during the Heavens Sect era, but at that time, Forgotten Ruins G.o.d had already been a Progenitor and the founder of the w.a.n.g family. She was a truly powerful Progenitor, who might have even ranked above the Nine Mountains and Eight Seas of the Heavens Sect. She had probably been infinitely close to reaching the same level as the Three Realms Six Dao.

Even to Old Mo, Forgotten Ruins G.o.d was an old monster.

Some distance away, the Yin Yang Sword flipped through the sky to stab into the ground. Both Xu Heng and Xu Leng coughed up blood after being slapped down by Corpse G.o.d.

Lu Yin was stunned. "Senior Brother!"

Mu Ke looked over at Corpse G.o.d, and his blade slashed out, aiming at Corpse G.o.d’s face with an attack that pierced the void.

Corpse G.o.d simply raised a hand to block the attack before swatting down once again.

Lu Yin was horrified. Mu Ke’s blade was even able to slice through sequence particles, which was proof of its power. And yet, Corpse G.o.d had blocked such an attack with his body.

Corpse G.o.d’s hand rose up and dropped back down. Mu Ke looked up and slowly raised his saber. The blade disappeared.

"Formless Blade Intent."

A soft voice reached Lu Yin's ears. He could see that there was no blade in Mu Ke’s hand, but Corpse G.o.d suddenly pulled his arm back, and the void was completely shredded apart, revealing the Hollow. Nothing could even be seen with Heaven’s Sight.

Lu Yin felt that, if Corpse G.o.d had not retracted his arm, Mu Ke would have severed it.

"You are not part of the plan," Corpse G.o.d said as he stared at Mu Ke.

Mu Ke raised his hand. There was clearly no blade in his hand, but at this moment, every last blade at the tea ceremony screamed as one, even those that wielded by peak powerhouses.

Any peak powerhouse who had reached that level with a blade would possess incredible control over their weapon. But at this moment, no one was able to fully control their blade, and it was because all the weapons had been influenced by Mu Ke. He was the sharpest blade at the tea ceremony.

"There should have been some sort of sacrifice to produce such a powerful blade." Corpse G.o.d grabbed a corpse king who had been fighting with Bureau Director Gan and threw the monster at Mu Ke.

The man’s arm fell, and the Progenitor-level corpse king was split in two, not having the slightest opportunity to fight back at all.

However, the blade had already fallen, and Corpse G.o.d swung his fist at Mu Ke. Another blade appeared in front of the man, crossing his body.

Boom!

A deafening noise rang out. Mu Ke had been punched by Corpse G.o.d, and he was forced to retreat a great distance.

Once again, the Invest.i.ture of the G.o.ds appeared above Lu Yin’s head, and Progenitor Nong, Leng Qing, and Xia Shenji all stepped forward to attack Corpse G.o.d.

At the same time, Lu Yin threw the jiao through the sky. "Bite him!"

The jiao struggled, but it did not dare to obey Lu Yi this time. This opponent was too terrifying.

Progenitor Nong's hoe and Leng Qing's blade struck out at the same time, and Xia Shenji instantly used his Shenwu World. Lu Yin went all out and had all his summons attack Corpse G.o.d's arm at full power.

However, not even three Progenitors together could harm Corpse G.o.d in the slightest.

This time, Lu Yin was able to clearly see how Corpse G.o.d’s ma.s.sive body was shrouded with sequence particles. What kind of sequence particles were they?

For the first time, Lu Yin saw sequence particles hidden within an actual body.

Progenitor Nong collapsed, quickly followed by Leng Qing as well. Finally, Xia Shenji fell.

The jiao never even dared to get close to Corpse G.o.d.

Mu Ke was still retreating. Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.

Lu Yin stepped forward and visualized the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant. The Withered Bark in his body that was still transforming into a star shook violently, and the power of time moved to envelop Lu Yin’s fist just as a purplish-black substance covered it. Lu Yin punched at Corpse G.o.d, confining the attack with the power of time before releasing fifty punches.

Mu Ke cried out, "NO!"

Lu Yin’s fist grazed Mu Ke’s cheek as it traveled towards Corpse G.o.d.
