Dozens of explosions rang out, but the Realm Mountain was still blocking the entrance to the Starfall Sea. Aside from the gap where the Zombie God's palm had been inserted, the rest of the space was completely blocked. No matter how the Zombie God attacked, it was useless.
Lu Buzheng and the rest relaxed. If the Zombie God could push the Realm Mountain away, she would have done so long ago. Now, it seemed like the Realm Mountain was blocking the entrance to the Starfall Sea.
They did not know the Zombie God's true identity, but their hearts were filled with admiration for Progenitor Hui. After all, he was a powerhouse who had cultivated to the Progenitor realm. Even in their era, he had been one of the most powerful people.
In particular, the sourcebox array behind the Realm Mountain was full of strange ideas. It had combined technology with sourcebox array techniques, and they did not know how Progenitor Hui had thought of it.
The attacks stopped, and the Zombie God stopped attacking the Realm Mountain.
The Forgotten Ruins God's eyes glowed as she looked at Lu Yin. "As expected of the man I value. You have some tricks up your sleeve."
Lu Yin felt a chill run down his spine. "Senior, you flatter me. You should think about how to leave."
"Hehe, little brat, do I need to think about how to leave?
If the Eternals were so easily defeated, then how did the five continents get destroyed? "
The Forgotten Ruins God giggled.
Lu Yin did not understand.
At that moment, droplets of liquid flew out from the gap where the Zombie God had inserted her palm into the Realm Mountain, scattering towards the Fifth Mainland.
Lu Yin's eyes narrowed. Not good.
He was not the only one; everyone who recognized the liquid felt their scalps go numb. It was the liquid that had devoured the Astral Source Universe.
The Fifth Mainland's Astral Source Universe had been crazily devoured by the eight droplets of liquid. Aside from a few places, the majority of the Fifth Mainland was unable to replenish its astral source. Now, more than ten droplets had flown in. This was no longer devouring the Astral Source Universe, but rather devouring the astral sources and star energy within the cultivators' bodies.
No one could stop the liquid from entering the Fifth Mainland at an incredible speed. In that instant, Lu Yin felt a heart-palpitating power. It was a power that he had never felt before, and he didn't even dare to move. He could only watch as the liquid flew out.
Not long after, the entire Fifth Mainland shook as the Astral Source Universe was being rapidly devoured.
The eastern Flowzones of the Innerverse and the central weaves of the Outerverse had all disappeared... Even the astral sources within the Neoverse's 3,000 Major Realms had been drawn out and devoured. The Fifth Mainland had officially entered an era of Astral Source Universe.
"You want to ambush me?"
Lu Buzheng shouted as the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant appeared behind him. He punched out and collided with the half-ancestor corpse king's fist. The half-ancestor corpse king's body was covered with strange patterns. It was actually ten-lined battle force, but it was not golden in color.
With the Corpse King's powerful strength and ten-lined battle force, it was enough to suppress experts of the same generation in terms of physical strength.
However, the Corpse King's punch was repelled by Lu Buzheng. Not only was he repelled, but his arm was also shattered.
"Do you think I, Lu Buzheng, only have the Three Suns Ancestral Qi?"
As he spoke, he raised his hand. The void twisted and turned into a needle that pierced through his palm and shot toward the Half-Martial Ancestor corpse king. This was the Earth Bodhisattva Needle, one of the most famous battle skills of the Lu Clan.
The Ksitigarbha Needle didn't fly very far before it slowly disappeared.
Lu Buzheng was shocked. He raised his head and saw that the drop of liquid was devouring Stellar Sources. In the past, it had only devoured the Stellar Sources of the Stellar Universe, making it impossible for cultivators to replenish it. Now, it could even devour the battle techniques formed by Stellar Sources. How could they fight against it?
The Stellar Source Cultivators were basically crippled.
Lu Yin frowned when he saw this. This was going to be troublesome. Most cultivators in the current era relied on star energy and astral sources. How were they going to fight if these powers were crippled?
Not being able to replenish it was one thing.
It was one thing to be unable to fight, but that was another.
Lu Buzheng was also a cultivator who used Stellar Sources, but fortunately, even without them, he was still a powerhouse by relying on his Immovable Heavenly King Elephant visualization. However, it was a different story for the Envoys under Lu Yin. Without their Stellar Sources, their strength had plummeted, and their Envoys were no longer Envoys.
"Hehe, what else do you have up your sleeves now?"
The Forgotten Ruins God giggled as she glanced at all of the human Half-Martial Ancestors.
Kui Luo was puzzled. "Aren't you using Stellar Sources as well?"
The Forgotten Ruins God's lips curled up. "If I'm only using Stellar Sources, then how am I different from the rest of you?"
All of the Half-Martial Ancestors looked at her. Up until now, the Forgotten Ruins God had still been a human. She had used the Wang family's battle techniques, human innate gifts, and Stellar Sources. If not for her status as one of the Seven Skygods, who would have suspected her?
She was completely different from the Ancient Gods.
However, now that she could no longer use Stellar Sources, the Forgotten Ruins God revealed another power that she had obtained after joining the Eternals.
"Look carefully. This is the power that the Eternal Race's only True God has bestowed upon us. We call it Divine Force." The Forgotten Ruins God's originally normal eyes became deep and serene as they replaced the darkness of space. They were like a vortex of light that attracted everyone's attention.
Her hair fluttered as a dark red current surged out of her body and spread out endlessly. It swept past everyone and even the heavens, illuminating the darkness of space with a dark red color that resembled the color of a planet's apocalypse. It brought about extreme unease, fear, and despair.
At that moment, Lu Yin felt a chill all over his body. Yes, when the liquid had flown in, he had felt this power. Although it was on a different level, its essence was the same. Was this the power of the Eternal Race's only True God?
Every Progenitor had the ability to change the heavens and earth. They could create their own cultivation systems and even open up inner worlds for humans and all sorts of creatures to inhabit. This was the significance of the Progenitor realm.
The Rune Progenitor had created Rune Technology, causing rune lines to fill the heavens.
Progenitor Chen had used Sirius to replace the stars.
The legendary Grim Reaper also had death qi.
Every Progenitor could change the heavens and earth, and the only True God was no exception. It was only now that Lu Yin understood the power of the Eternal Race's only True God, and it was a huge shock to him.
If death qi was full of strangeness and brought death, then this power brought despair. It was incomparably domineering and had replaced the heavens.
"Astral source?
It's meaningless. The Progenitor is dead, so the astral source is essentially useless. Yet you're still using it to cultivate. Foolish. "The Forgotten Ruins God used the Eternal Race's Divine Force, and both her voice and state were much colder. Her entire temperament changed, as if she was a princess who had walked out of hell. She raised her hand and nine wolves roared.
Lu Buzheng, Hen Xin, and Jue Yi gathered together and stared at the Forgotten Ruins God with eyes full of fear. In their era, the Eternal Race was far weaker than the humans, and they did not care to understand the Eternal Race's power. They did not understand this so-called Divine Force either.
"Do it!" Hen Xin barked, slicing through the void and pushing the Forgotten Ruins God. No matter what kind of power you used, you just had to strip away space.
The Forgotten Ruins God sneered, and then all of his power receded like a tide and disappeared.
At the same time, Wang Hou appeared at the Fallen Star Sea's entrance through a crack in the Corpse God's palm, entering and leaving the Fifth Mainland.
"They're trying to escape. Attack!" Lu Buzheng shouted and punched the half-ancestor corpse king.
Hen Xin's Void Slice had originally been aimed at the Forgotten Ruins God, but now that the Forgotten Ruins God had left, Lu Buzheng changed his target.
Hen Xin's speed was too fast, and he had already prepared this attack beforehand. The half-ancestor beast could not react in time and was torn to pieces by Hen Xin's Void Slice.
The half-ancestor corpse king was not so easy to deal with, and when faced with Lu Buzheng's punch, it unleashed all of its power. It was trapped by the mind net, just like how Marquis Qing Zhu had faced Destiny's Daughter.
… …
Once trapped by the mind net, Lu Buzheng and the rest could not do anything unless they had the power to break it.
Lu Yin stood on the Ancestral Turtle's back and found it strange. The Forgotten Ruins God clearly had the power to fight, and he even had the advantage because the Astral Source Universe had been devoured. Why was he not attacking?
After cultivating for so many years, Lu Yin had come into contact with many Eternals. The Seven Skygods were all very intelligent, and Lu Yin had never underestimated the Eternals.
There had to be a reason why the Forgotten Ruins God had suddenly retreated, just like how he had not charged into the Fifth Mainland in one go and had instead waited for the humans to gather.
"A half-ancestor beast died just like that. That was a half-ancestor," Cloud Shadow Mavis sighed as her voice rang out in Lu Yin's ears.
Lu Yin was shocked, and he stepped out of the void and arrived beside the half-ancestor beast that had been torn to pieces. A platform appeared in front of him. "In my name, I appoint a general."
"Wait!" Lu Buzheng saw Lu Yin appoint a half-ancestor and hurriedly tried to stop him, but it was too late.
Lu Yin looked at the platform nervously, as he did not know if he could appoint a half-ancestor, as it was very dangerous. If he could, then his power would increase by leaps and bounds, and he would be able to summon a half-ancestor to do battle at any time. If he could not, then he had not considered the consequences. It was not easy for him to encounter a half-ancestor that had died, and it had been so close to him, so he had to give it a try.
When Lu Buzheng spoke, Lu Yin's heart sank. Not good.
The next moment, his brain felt as if it had been struck by an invisible force, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His face paled, and the platform disappeared at the same time.
Beside him, Kui Luo and Lu Buzheng appeared at the same time.
"You're too ignorant. Didn't anyone teach you that you can't try to appoint a half-ancestor before reaching six Origin Tribulations?
Even during the Above Heaven era, my Lu family's Daoist only managed to appoint a half-ancestor after reaching six Origin Tribulations, "Lu Buzheng reprimanded.
Kui Luo saw that Lu Yin was on the verge of collapsing. "He's not dead, is he?"
Lu Buzheng supported Lu Yin. "No, but he suffered a backlash from his innate gift and will need to recuperate for quite some time. This is not something that can be healed by medicinal stones or any external force. He can only recover on his own."
Lu Yin's head hurt, as he had truly been impulsive this time. He had wanted to appoint a general when he had seen the half-ancestor's corpse, but he had overestimated himself.
Ever since that liquid had devoured the Astral Source Universe, Lu Yin had admitted that he had not been of much use in the subsequent battles. He had been so eager to possess the power of a half-ancestor that he had neglected the difference in cultivation levels.
"How long do I need to recuperate?"
Lu Yin asked tiredly.
Lu Buzheng was puzzled. "Why do you seem so unfamiliar with your innate gift?
Not only did you attempt to appoint a half-ancestor after one Origin Tribulations, but you also don't understand the backlash from your innate gift? "
Lu Yin did not have the strength to reply.
Kui Luo snapped, "The Lu family is gone, so who's going to teach him?"
Lu Buzheng was shocked. "What did you say?
The Lu family is gone? "
Hen Xin and Jue Yi both looked at Kui Luo, as did Jialan of the Sky.
