Kui Luo thought about it and then slapped his head. "Bai Xian 'er from the Frigid Immortal Sect."
Lu Yin's eyes flashed. "Bai Xian 'er?"
Kui Luo solemnly explained, "When she broke through to become an Envoy, her phenomenon shook the entire Astral Tree and caused the Mother Tree to sway.
They rushed into the Frigid Immortal Sect like moths to a flame, wanting to kill her. Your phenomenon isn't any weaker than hers, and it might even surpass hers. Oh no, we're in big trouble now. The Astral Tree knows about your phenomenon, and they definitely won't let you off. "
Lu Yin replied, "I know, which is why I sent people to keep an eye on the Genesis Court."
"The Eternals won't let you off either," Kui Luo said solemnly.
Lu Yin wasn't worried about this. Even if his innate gift was feared by the Eternals, the higher his innate gift, the better. The higher his innate gift, the stronger he would be in the future, and the more likely he would be able to resist the Four Sides Scale.
"Don't worry about that. That's for later. First, help me resolve this war," Lu Yin said.
Kui Luo rolled his eyes. "You're so heartless. It's just a small war, and you're taking it so seriously."
Lu Yin shrugged. "I can't help it. There's something I need to protect."
Kui Luo was still thinking about Lu Yin's phenomenon after his breakthrough, and the more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became. This was clearly Lu Yin's problem, but Kui Luo was more nervous than Lu Yin himself. He had even been startled. No, this wasn't his style. He then said, "Right, I have something to tell you."
"What is it?" Lu Yin was curious.
Kui Luo casually replied, "It's nothing important. I just saw a statue when I barged into the Daosource Sect. It should be the legendary Primogenitor that the Sixth Mainland's Three Progenitors often worship."
It was a very calm sentence, but Lu Yin was stunned. He thought that he had misheard. "What did you say?"
Kui Luo's lips curled up in delight. "It's nothing, just a small matter."
Lu Yin was speechless. "Even the Three Progenitors worship you?
What Primogenitor? "
Kui Luo was flabbergasted. "You don't know?"
Lu Yin shook his head and glanced at the Second Nightking, who also looked confused.
Kui Luo snorted. "How ignorant. One of you is a direct descendant of the Lu Clan, and you even inherited the power of the Death God, while the other has lived longer than anyone else." He coughed, then continued, "Listen up. Legend has it that in the most ancient era of mankind, there was a primogenitor. I don't know if he was the first to be born, or if he was the first to create cultivation.
"Legend has it that it was this Primogenitor who established the Daosource Sect and became humanity's first Progenitor. He enlightened and enlightened countless people, and he paved the way for the cultivation civilization. Later on, powerful Progenitors like Reaper, Fate, and Wu Tian were born."
"Later generations who want to practice cultivation have to worship this ancestor. He's the religion of all human beings."
"This old man saw a statue in the Daosource Sect. It had a python coiled around its waist and a divine eagle perched on its shoulder. That image was similar to the legends, and it was even enshrined in the deepest part of the Daosource Sect. That's why I guessed that it might be the Primogenitor."
Lu Yin and the Second Nightking were both dumbfounded. Legends like the Grim Reaper and Fate were already very exaggerated, and if it weren't for the fact that their powers truly existed, Lu Yin would not have believed them. Now, there was another legend about the Primogenitor, who had created the human cultivation civilization and established the Daosource Sect.
"There really is a Primogenitor?" the Second Nightking asked in a daze.
Kui Luo rolled his eyes. "It's just a legend. How would this old man know? Go ask the Sixth Mainland's Three Ancestors. They worship it, and they believe it."
The Second Nightking was stumped.
"Speaking of which, you've lived longer than anyone else. I heard that you existed before the Mother Tree left the wasteland. How come you don't know anything?" Kui Luo stared at the Second Nightking with even more disdain.
The Second Nightking's face twitched. The Daynight clan's history was not very glorious. They had not even existed in that ancient era, and they had only been slaves of the Bai family.
"Do you believe it?" Lu Yin asked. The legends about the Primogenitor were too exaggerated, and they were even older than the Death God and the others.
Kui Luo replied, "There's nothing to believe. Who cares if there really is a Primogenitor or not? It has nothing to do with us. Even if there was one, he would have died long ago. Legend has it that he was the one who planted the Mother Tree, so who knows?"
Legends also depended on the level of the legends.
To ordinary people, cultivators tearing apart the heavens and moving mountains and filling seas were already legends.
To cultivators, a Half-Ancestor creating an inner world was also a legend.
But to Half-Ancestors, what was a legend?
Existences like the Death God and Fate were legends, and so were the Primogenitors.
Legends might not be fake, but their level was not high enough.
If a Primogenitor really existed, then how powerful would he be?
There must be a reason why the Daosource Sect worshipped that statue.
At present, the most ancient existence in the universe was not the Hall of Honor or the Four Cardinal Scales, but rather the Daosource Sect. Even though the Sixth Mainland had been destroyed, the Daosource Sect had been left behind from the most ancient era and had witnessed the most ancient era. No one knew how long that statue had existed.
Progenitor Chen was unparalleled and powerful, but he would not be worshipped by other Progenitors.
Even Progenitors would worship him, so there was a reason for that.
…
The shockwaves from the battle between Half-Ancestors swept through the Primal Zone and Ironblood Weave.
The Medicine Immortal and Old Blood Devil had joined forces to fight the Demon Lord, but they were still at a disadvantage. The Sword Valley Master and the others were horrified, and they continuously retreated.
"Have you found any traces of Xu Qing's group of astral beasts?"
A voice rang out in the ears of the Sword Valley Master and the others. They looked over and were delighted. "Lan Xian?"
Lan Xian solemnly looked to the east. The Demon Emperor's strength was terrifying, and even the Medicine Immortal and Old Blood Devil would find it difficult to resist him.
Fortunately, Old Blood Devil was there, or else she and the Medicine Immortal would not have been able to resist him.
"We have not found any traces of Xu Qing's group of astral beasts, but they will definitely return to the Astral Beast Domain, and they will have to pass through the Primal Zone," the Sword Valley Master respectfully reported.
Lan Xian's eyes flickered. "Have the Great Eastern Alliance participate."
The Sword Valley Master was confused. "The Great Eastern Alliance?"
Lan Xian replied, "Have the Great Eastern Alliance participate in the war as a condition. Once we eliminate Xu Qing's group of astral beasts, recover that eastern weave for me."
The Sword Valley Master and the others were confused. What did she mean?
She had clearly helped Lu Yin and forced them to give up that eastern weave, so why was she now plotting against the Great Eastern Alliance?
Lan Xian was inwardly vexed, as she had also been tricked. Back then, Lu Yin had used Progenitor Wushang's hide as a condition to force the Sixth Mainland to participate in the war. She had thought that the Great Eastern Alliance wanted to retreat, which was why she had threatened Lu Yin with not taking over the eastern weave. However, she had not known that Lu Yin had no intention of withdrawing from the eastern weave at all. Everything had been a facade.
She had thought that she could force Lu Yin, but in reality, she had fallen right into his trap. She had even helped Lu Yin obtain the eastern weave.
When she thought about this, she was filled with regret.
This had been Lu Yin's scheme within a scheme. He had used Progenitor Wushang's hide to lure the Sixth Mainland into killing Xu Qing, and he had also deceived the Sixth Mainland. If not for the fact that the Astral Beast Domain had smoothly attacked Tyrant Weave and that the Great Eastern Alliance had not made any moves, she would not have been able to see through his scheme.
That despicable bastard.
Lan Xian had never felt so sullen before. Ever since she had stepped onto the path of cultivation, her innate gift had attracted the Daosource Sect's attention, and she had become one of the Daosource Three Skies. Breaking through to the Half-Ancestor realm was only natural, and as long as she could obtain the Origin Item and break through the Wisdom Gate, she would naturally become an Ancestor. Everything had seemed to be going smoothly, but she had never expected that she would be screwed over by a junior.
When she thought about this, Lan Xian's expression turned even colder. "Think of a way to lure the Great Eastern Alliance into this war. The eastern weave must be ours." She then stepped forward, causing cherry blossoms to fill the sky as she joined the battle against the Yao Emperor.
The Sword Valley Master watched Lan Xian's disappearing figure, and his eyes lit up. It seemed that the Blood Ancestor did not intend to take Lu Yin as a disciple. Otherwise, Lan Xian's attitude would not have changed. That brat was the Sixth Mainland's enemy.
The Sword Valley Master had always disliked Lu Yin, but now was not the time to suppress him. Facing both the Astral Beast Domain and the Great Eastern Alliance at the same time was a little difficult. The Fifth Mainland had the most Half-Ancestors, so it was best to avoid a war if possible.
First, they would lure the Great Eastern Alliance into this battlefield. Once they eliminated Xu Qing's group of astral beasts and stabilized Ironblood Weave, they would then move against the Great Eastern Alliance. The Outerverse belonged to the Sixth Mainland, so it was reasonable for them to take it back. The Fifth Mainland had no right to interfere.
At the border of the Primal Zone, the Yao Emperor was astonished. "Three Half-Ancestors? The Sixth Mainland really thinks highly of me."
The Medicine Immortal was exhausted, and his face was pale. The Blood Ancestor did not look too good either, as his strength was about the same as the Medicine Immortal's. Only Lan Xian stood at the front. Although she was the youngest, she had once been one of the Daosource Three Skies. Her innate gift was extremely high, and she had broken through two gates. Her strength surpassed the Blood Ancestor's.
"Yao Emperor, since we're invading, how can we retreat unscathed?" Lan Xian spoke, and the sound of three strings being plucked rang out as cherry blossoms filled the sky.
The Yao Emperor's eyes narrowed. He could not afford to lose Xu Qing's group of astral beasts. Otherwise, the Astral Beast Domain would not have the strength to invade the Outerverse for the next ten thousand years. "Retreat from the Primal Zone, or you'll all die." He then raised a hand, and his spiritual force converged to form a black dot that shot towards Lan Xian.
In an instant, the battle between the four Half-Ancestors shook the heavens and the earth.
Sword Valley Master and the others led the Sixth Mainland's cultivators to retreat once again while contacting Lu Yin.
Lu Yin had just arrived at the asteroid belt when he received a call from Sword Valley Master, which was rather strange. Why was Sword Valley Master contacting him at this time?
"Alliance Master Lu, the Yao Emperor's reinforcements are about to meet up with Xu Qing. With our current strength, we can't hold them off for now. We request that the Great Eastern Alliance provide reinforcements, and we can offer a weave in the east as a reward," Sword Valley Master immediately said.
Lu Yin's eyes flashed. "I saw that Half-Ancestor Lan Xian has also gone to the Primal Zone. Three Half-Ancestors won't be able to hold off the Yao Emperor and his reinforcements?"
"It'll be very difficult. The Yao Emperor's strength is unfathomable, and the Celestial Beast Empire has more than one powerhouse with a power level of a million as reinforcements. With the addition of Xu Qing's forces, we won't be able to hold them off," Sword Valley Master said.
Lu Yin hesitated.
Sword Valley Master loudly said, "Does Alliance Master Lu not want the eastern weave?
If we're defeated and perish, then we won't have the strength to defend Ironblood Weave anymore. At that time, the Great Eastern Alliance will have to fight as well, so it's better for us to join forces and defeat the Astral Beast Domain in one fell swoop. "
Lu Yin frowned. "With the Sixth Mainland's strength, it's not too late to send reinforcements."
Sword Valley Master was helpless. "I don't know who leaked a lot of information, but the Sixth Mainland's internal situation is currently unstable. People are either seeking revenge or capturing people. It's very difficult for us to find reinforcements. Alliance Master Lu, if it wasn't for the fact that there's no reinforcements, then I wouldn't have to beg you."
For a Cosmic Imprinter to beg Lu Yin showed that he had truly reached his limit.
Lu Yin sighed. "It's not easy for Senior."
