Chapter 1551: Unrivaled Healing Technique
This was Lu Yin’s third time fighting while in the God of Death Transformation. The only time that his chains had been captured or held was when Long Tian had used his innate gift of Seizing that could even grab space itself. No one else had ever managed to touch the chains, and this White Dragon Clan’s elder was no exception.
He tried to grab the chain, but the chain simply tangled about him. As for a competition of strength, the elder could not compare to Lu Yin at this moment. When Lu Yin yanked down, he nearly tore the elder’s body in two.
Blood splashed onto the ground from the top of the old man’s head, and it stained Lu Yin’s feet red.
“Lu bastard, how dare you collude with Specter Abyss? Are you seeking death?” the Celestial Frost Sect’s Envoy screamed as he lashed out with a palm attack. Stellular energy roiled, and all nearby star energy was suppressed. However, the suppression failed to affect Lu Yin, and he simply tossed the White Dragon Clan’s elder over at the Celestial Frost Sect’s Envoy with a flick of the chain. The branch family’s elder was stunned by the Gap Between Heaven and Human palm that struck his back.
Lu Yin took advantage of this opening to enter the true universe. Golden battle force twined around his body before eventually wrapping around his scythe right before it fell down.
There was a bang as the scythe was struck by the Wang family’s Four Art: Celestial Blade, successfully diverting the merciless weapon. The Wang family’s elder suddenly appeared in front of Lu Yin, glaring at the youth as he unleashed a Four Arts: Bear Stalwart.
Boom!
The palm strike smashed against the white shield on Lu Yin’s left arm, but Lu Yin was not pushed back at all. The black mist behind him took on the form of massive eyes that opened to stare straight at the Wang family’s powerhouse.
The Envoy panicked and started involuntarily shuddering. It was as though he had gazed upon the most terrifying thing in the entire world. Lu Yin attacked, and the sourcebox array shifted, creating tears in the void that tried to disrupt Lu Yin’s attack. The Wang family’s Envoy managed to finally react, fleeing.
Lu Yin remained standing in place, and he glanced around. Even though his eyes were jet black, everyone could see the arrogance contained within them. He had the attitude of one who was invincible and without peers.
All four two-tribulation Envoys had been injured despite working together. The results of the battle had silenced everyone watching, even Shi Xin.
He was a genius who had once competed with the Seven Heroes. Even though he was only a one-tribulation Envoy, he was fully confident that he could overwhelm any of the individual Envoys facing Lu Yin at this moment. Even if each one of them was a two-tribulation Envoy, they only possessed an average strength for their cultivation level.
However, Lu Yin was nothing more than an Enlighter, which meant that his star energy was unusable in this battle against Envoys.
The Lu family had once dominated the entire Perennial World, but they had done so by relying on their Champions’ Stages. A single person could reach the point of summoning thousands of champions from their stage and be fearless even against an entire enemy army. However, Lu Yin’s Champions’ Stage had already been defeated earlier in the battle, and he was currently relying entirely on his individual strength to fight against four two-tribulation Envoys.
Even Shi Xin had to admit that, at this moment, Lu Yin had surpassed him. Shi Xin was not capable of standing up to four opponents with superior cultivation realms.
Excitement filled Nong Lie’s eyes as he watched Lu Yin with pure admiration. “He really is a role model for my generation to aspire to.”
The expression in Xia Taili’s eyes had completely changed as she looked at Lu Yin. She had finally seen true invincible power, and it was no wonder why Lu Yin had looked down upon Bai Shaohong so much. It had also become clear how Lu Yin had managed to kill the Junior Progenitor, as Bai Shaohong could not compare to Lu Yin’s current strength in any way at all.
As Lu Yin held his scythe, the black death energy surrounded him and masked his appearance, which was even more pronounced in the dim lighting of the Higher Realm. He looked like a true god of death, and his appearance was absolutely intimidating.
“We can’t let him live! He absolutely cannot be allowed to live!” someone from the Celestial Frost Sect screamed.
Master Deng Guo gritted his teeth. “No one from the Lu family can be allowed to survive. Everyone, rush into the sourcebox array to kill him!”
“Kill him!”
Lu Yin clenched his left hand into fist. “You want to kill me? Then come on! I’ll bury all of you with me!”
He had already redeemed his family’s name and created a legend of invincibility for himself. It was now time to use power vessels and items to continue the fight. He ended the God of Death Transformation and donned his universal armor. He brought the puppet back out and began to wield the knife. He also held the orb that contained the Karmic Flame in his mouth, equipped the massive, mechanical right arm, and had it hold some of the poison that he had taken from Elder Wu. Lu Yin refused to believe that the gathered people were capable of taking him down.
He was waiting, waiting for Mister Mu and waiting… for the Neohuman Alliance.
Shaman God had not hesitated to launch an all-out assault on the five array bases protecting humanity. The Skygod had allowed Lu Yin to destroy several of Aeturnus’s cities, and it had even mobilized the Twelve Marquises. After that, Shaman God had even shown itself at Dragon Mountain, so it was impossible that it would allow Lu Yin to die before he returned to the Fifth Mainland.
Master Deng Guo let out a scream as both of his legs were broken and the wounds filled with death energy. It was a sneak attack by a powerhouse from Specter Abyss.
The elder from the White Dragon Clan who had been chasing and attacking Lu Yin was enraged by this sight, and he smashed the void with a palm, grabbing hold of the hidden powerhouse. “The Lu family has actually joined forces with Specter Abyss.”
The expert from Specter Abyss gritted his teeth. “The moment the God of Death is born, they will be the master of my Specter Abyss.”
“You’re seeking death!” The White Dragon Clan’s elder instantly shattered the body of the expert from Specter Abyss.
Master Deng Guo had been attacked, which caused the sourcebox array to turn unstable. Lu Yin raised his hand and threw out an Enhanced flashbomb. The Higher Realm was already a dark place, and Lu Yin’s flashbombs were able to affect even a Junior Progenitor in normal circumstances. They were amazingly effective here, and the explosion of light stung everyone’s eyes, even the Envoys’.
Lu Yin shot forward and tore through the void. As he shot past Master Deng Guo, Lu Yin’s knife flickered. The Array Master’s pupils instantly shrank, and an odd sourcebox array appeared in front of him to block Lu Yin’s knife.
Lu Yin felt frustrated; he had wanted to kill Master Deng Guo, but the man was a Lockbreaker and an Array Master. Even if this person had no talent for combat and had wasted three quarters of their strength, they were still inferior only to Array Grandmasters when it came to lockbreaking. It was impossible to kill such a person through a sneak attack.
With his attack failing, Lu Yin turned to the east and raced away without any hesitation.
The White Dragon Clan’s elder instantly attacked. “You bastard, you’ll stay here forever!”
Lu Yin raised a hand and let out some of Elder Wu’s poison. He had upgraded it twelve times, which made it powerful enough to even threaten Envoys. Even though it was not enough to truly threaten the elder from the White Dragon Clan, the poison was certainly able to scare the old man. Lu Yin had used far too many items and power vessels, and his opponents were naturally all afraid of anything that he used against them. The Envoys retreated the instant they saw poison spreading through the air.
Lu Yin sped up as he fled, and he did not stay to see what happened to the elders.
He felt that he had been extremely lucky to have picked up all his companions from Huaiyuan Gate before traveling to Dragon Mountain. Otherwise, they would have all been killed off by now.
“You bastard! You still want to run?” Wang Si’s voice echoed through the sky, causing Lu Yin’s heart to sink. The old man had not succeeded in stopping the old woman.
Lu Yin felt a sharp pain in his knees, and he looked down, only to see that his legs had been stabbed. In particular, his knees had been completely shattered. When had that happened? His universal armor and the puppet had not provided him even the slightest hint of resistance against this attack.
Lu Yin looked back and saw that Wang Si was only 100 meters away from him, and her expression was a hideous mask of rage. “You little bastard, everyone from the Lu family should be damned!”
She then raised her hand once more, and Lu Yin’s mind went blank. He became utterly unaware of everything.
Wang Si had used her family’s Forgotten Ruins, but it was different from the Forgotten Ruins that Lu Yin had encountered in the Dominion Realm. That place had not been controlled by anyone, which had given Lu Yin an opening to react. However, with Wang Si using the technique herself, Lu Yin was completely unable to react.
Bang, bang!
There were two explosions in a row, and both of Lu Yin’s arms were shattered, the joints destroyed just like his knees. The terrible pain allowed his mind to recover slightly, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. Wang Si sneered at him. “I won’t let you die easily, you little bastard! I’m going to slowly torture you!”
Blood dripped down the corners of Lu Yin’s mouth, and he was unable to control any of his limbs. A torrent of blood poured from his body, but his eyes remained fierce. “You old slut, you must have been abandoned by my Lu family.”
Wang Si’s eyes instantly grew icy. “You are courting death!”
Suddenly, the old man’s voice could be heard. “Old slut, that’s cheating.”
A visible energy blasted the earth and sky, freezing everyone who had been chasing after Lu Yin and blocking all of Wang Si’s attacks. She gritted her teeth. “Kui Luo, I’m going to kill you too!”
An invisible power threw Lu Yin far away. The old man had taken action and thrown Lu Yin far to the east.
As more time passed, Lu Yin felt that Mister Mu was more and more of a mystery. In the Fifth Mainland, Mister Mu had tossed Lu Yin halfway across the Innerverse, but this old man seemed incapable of such a feat. Still, it was possible that the discrepancy also had something to do with how stable space was in the Perennial World.
Also, why had Mister Mu still not arrived?
Lu Yin was thrown far away by the invisible power, though an unknown distance still separated him from the Cloud Shuttle. He landed on the ground and hid within some mountains.
Wang Si had destroyed both of Lu Yin’s hands and feet, and the remnants of the Semi-Progenitor’s energy still remained within the wounds. Even in the best of conditions, such injuries would be difficult to heal. Even though Lu Yin had opened his three meridian points and his body overflowed with vitality, it was impossible for him to remove a Semi-Progenitor’s energy without any aid.
Lu Yin hid at the bottom of a lake. His breathing was ragged, and he wanted to enter Zenith Mountain to let Long Xi and the others to treat him. However, after considering it, he decided not to. After all, a Semi-Progenitor’s energy was not something that Long Xi or any of the others on the mountain could deal with.
Lu Yin racked his brain, but it was impossible for him to get any assistance from a Semi-Progenitor at this time. If Qing Chen found Lu Yin, the old man might help Lu Yin, but Qing Chen was just as likely to accept the decision of the Perennial World and simply eliminate Lu Yin. Was there anyone who could help him? The Nong family? The Liu family? Neither was guaranteed.
After a while, Lu Yin suddenly remembered the battle technique that he had acquired: Extremes Must Be Reversed. As long as an attack did not instantly kill him, it would merely restore and strengthen his body.
Should he give that a try?
With that thought, Lu Yin’s die appeared. He struggled to roll it, but it stopped on three pips. Lu Yin stared at the useless screens of light for a moment before continuing.
The next time he rolled a five, but that was also useless. Again. This time, he rolled a four, which thrilled him. The scenery changed around him, and Lu Yin appeared in the Timestop Space.
There was no need for him to hurry after entering this place, as Lu Yin could simply extend the duration forever while only a single second would pass in the outside world.
He took a few deep breaths and swallowed some medicine. Without pause, he then slowly closed his eyes and started cultivating Extremes Must Be Reversed.
Fortunately, he had already tried out the technique before, so it was not completely new to him.
In a flash, half a year had passed. Lu Yin opened his eyes and saw that his shattered joints had become desiccated. He was still able to sense the Semi-Progenitor’s energy wreaking havoc within his body, but Progenitor Ku’s battle technique was also restoring his body. This technique was nothing less than an unrivaled healing technique.
It was no wonder why rumors of Progenitor Ku mastering the secret of immortality had abounded when his secret technique was related to healing. At this moment, this was Lu Yin’s most valuable technique.
While Extremes Must Be Reversed would indeed heal the wounds that had been inflicted upon Lu Yin by Wang Si, it would still take him a great deal of time.
Another half a year passed in the Timestop Space, which meant that Lu Yin had spent 8 million star essence extending his time here. The cost to extend the time in the space doubled each time, so after a whole year, Lu Yin really could not afford to stay for even a few more months.
He examined his limbs. While there was still a bit of the Semi-Progenitor’s energy in his body, the desiccated portions of his limbs had greatly recovered, though he would need at least a few years to fully recover.
This was the power of a Semi-Progenitor.
Fortunately, Lu Yin had recovered to the point where he could move again. He had almost no flexibility at all, but he could at least move his body.
