This was a frightening thought, but it was also the most likely possibility.
Within the main hall, there was an astral source universe that was constantly forming and disappearing.
The blade descended, and Lu Yin grabbed it. The blade was sharp enough to cut through the void, but it could not break through Lu Yin's defenses. After all, it was far weaker than Leng Qing's own attack.
With a bang, the blade shattered.
A fourth tribulation appeared above Lu Yin's head.
Chu Yuan's face sank, as Lu Yin's various performances had already surpassed his understanding. Lu Yin had always been an existence that surpassed others' understanding, especially his astral source reserves. Anyone who knew about this would not understand how Lu Yin could possess astral sources that could rival a Lu family Daodisciple's. At this moment, Chu Yuan finally understood how others felt; where did this person get so many astral sources?
Why did the minor origin tribulations keep appearing?
How did Lu Yin cultivate?
Lu Yin was walking down an incomprehensible path that others could not understand.
Suddenly, Chu Yuan's face changed. Not good, he was about to break through.
Lu Yin was madly devouring astral sources in order to break through, but that did not mean that others could not absorb astral sources; it was just a bit slower than before.
However, each time he absorbed astral sources, the time it took him to do so increased. This time, Chu Yuan could not stop it, and he was about to break through. Finally, an origin tribulation appeared above his head.
Lu Yin looked over and saw that Chu Yuan was about to break through as well.
He Luo Mavis quickly distanced herself from Chu Yuan.
Chu Yuan's expression did not look good. He was currently at the second tribulation, and he could break through if he wanted to, but not under such circumstances. He liked being the center of attention, which was why he had not stopped He Luo Mavis and Lu Yin from following him in the Daosource Sect's ruins. Now, everyone's attention was on Lu Yin, and he had become a foil, which was not a good feeling.
The origin tribulations descended.
Lu Yin and Chu Yuan underwent their tribulations at almost the same time.
Chu Yuan had become a cultivator with three tribulations, while Lu Yin had become a cultivator with two tribulations.
Even after their tribulations, astral sources were still pouring into their bodies.
Chu Yuan and He Luo Mavis had both chosen to suppress the rate at which they absorbed astral sources.
Lu Yin was still absorbing astral sources using Sirius.
The liquid had devoured the astral source universe, and without it, where would he go to face his tribulations?
If he could break through, then so be it. His foundation was deep enough, so deep that it made others doubt their lives.
The others looked at Lu Yin. He wanted to break through?
Was he crazy?
The Forgotten Ruins God giggled. "Little fella, you're afraid that you won't be able to break through in the future without the Starsource Universe, right? I like your personality. Once you catch something, you won't let go. Hehe."
Lu Yin pursed his lips. This woman was right; why would she let go when she had already caught him?
He Luo Mavis, on the other hand, wasn't that worried. Although she also cultivated Astral Sources, she was more focused on the Mavis Family's own cultivation method. She just needed to find the divine tree.
Chu Yuan frowned deeply. If the Stellar Source Universe was gone, what was he going to do?
Currently, he did not have the ability to create his own cultivation system. His cultivation system was purely based on the Astral Source cultivation system, just like the Lu Family.
She couldn't help but look at Lu Yin. Was she going to keep breaking through like him?
This went against his original intentions.
After the origin tribulation, the astralsource continued to surge into everyone's bodies. The statue had absorbed too much astralsource, and it was far beyond what Lu Yin and the rest could absorb.
The four Astral Genesis Qi vortexes in his body continued to expand, and he was on his way to the third Origin Tribulation.
The main hall suddenly shook, and everyone's expressions froze. A new spacetime was about to appear.
The longest history that Lu Yin knew of was the Daosource Sect's Fifth Mainland and Sixth Mainland's decisive battle. No one had mentioned anything further than that, as it seemed that history was not important. Or rather, it was not important to the Fifth Mainland, such as the cultivation paths of Progenitor Chen and Progenitor Ku.
However, Lu Yin was interested in those histories.
However, traversing through spacetime was not necessarily in order. Perhaps what they saw was not an older history, but a more recent one.
Outside the main hall, a white light flashed past. Everyone looked over and saw a glaring white light boil in the sky before turning into a dark red that shot out in all directions. Even Lu Yin could not clearly see what was happening.
"That's the collapse of a continent," Jiu Yao blurted out as he looked into the distance in shock.
The Forgotten Ruins God was shocked. "It's actually a scene of a continent collapsing. How nostalgic."
Leng Qing was in disbelief. A continent collapsing? A continent collapsing?
He had previously heard that five out of the six continents of the human race had already collapsed, but he had not believed it. Now, he was witnessing it with his own eyes.
The soil, the rivers, the mountains, the planets, and even the great world were all spreading out in all directions. Naturally, this included the countless living beings within it as well.
How many lives would be lost when a continent collapsed?
No one could keep track of it. Even the tiny Earth had lost billions of humans before Armageddon, and this did not include other animals. How many Earths were there on a continent?
It was also impossible to count, as there were too many.
The collapse of a continent would bring about the disappearance of a civilization.
Lu Yin's eyes widened as he witnessed the most resplendent and cruel scene in the universe. The glaring white light mixed with the dark red light was terrifying, and he could almost hear the cries of countless lives as they fell into despair before finally being reduced to dust.
Chu Yuan and He Luo Mavis quietly watched this scene as a continent collapsed. They had never imagined such a scene before.
Hearing it was one thing, but actually seeing it was another.
"So it's the Fourth Mainland," the Forgotten Ruins God said, having recognized it.
Above the main hall, a large number of planets exploded, and countless strange life forms were instantly annihilated. These life forms were not humans, but at this moment, life was life.
The Fourth Mainland was populated by astral beasts, and the Astral Beast Domain was a descendant of the Fourth Mainland. The Celestial Beast Tribe and Bu Tian were both from the Fourth Mainland.
Once upon a time, their homeworld had been comparable to the entire Fifth Mainland.
Not only did the Fifth Mainland include the Innerverse and Outerverse, but it also included the Astral Beast Domain, the Technocracy, and the Cosmic Tree Domain. One could imagine how powerful the complete Fifth Mainland had been, and the Fourth Mainland had been comparable to the Fifth Mainland.
Such a huge and prosperous region had completely collapsed and disappeared from the universe. Even Lu Yin could not imagine such a scene.
But now, he was witnessing it with his own eyes.
Everyone was silent, as the disappearance of life was always accompanied by silence. Perhaps only the Forgotten Ruins God liked to see such a scene. They had seen it happen several times, and they had personally created it.
Lu Yin unconsciously clenched his fists. Would the Fifth Mainland end up like this as well?
Hmm?
He suddenly saw something familiar. Was that a humanoid sourcebox?
The collapse of the continent was like the explosion of a large part of the universe. The continents broke apart, and countless black holes appeared. In this apocalyptic scene, one after another, humanoid sourceboxes shot out in all directions. There were so many of them that Lu Yin even forgot that the continent was collapsing.
Why were there so many of them?
In outer space, the humanoid sourceboxes flew out in droves, and not just from one location, but from many different locations. What was going on?
Little Shi had said that humanoid sourceboxes could not be unlocked, and Celestial Master Xiu had warned him as well. Lu Yin understood this very well, which was why he had given all of the humanoid sourceboxes he had obtained to Celestial Master Xiu.
However, no one could say for sure where the humanoid sourceboxes had come from.
At this moment, he actually saw countless humanoid sourceboxes when the Fourth Mainland was collapsing. How could there be so many of them?
He suddenly recalled what he had seen when he had fused with the Yin Guai's body. There had been many humanoid sourceboxes in the Celestial Beast Empire, and they had seemed to be collecting them.
The Celestial Beast Empire, the Fourth Mainland, and the humanoid sourceboxes. What was the connection between all of these?
The main hall swayed and then appeared in the void. The scene of the continent collapsing seemed like an illusion.
However, Chu Yuan and the others fell silent. That scene had really happened. Knowing about history was one thing, but experiencing it was another.
Lu Yin's heart was heavy.
The statue began to devour the astral source, and everyone simply allowed it to do so.
They had seen the Fourth Mainland collapse. Would they see the Third Mainland, the Second Mainland, or even the First Mainland next?
Would they see the era of the Above Heaven Sect?
How far back in history could this sword take them?
Not long after, the statue released the astral source, and Lu Yin immediately activated the Sirius Art. It was as if he had subconsciously done so.
He Luo Mavis was the first to break through. She could no longer suppress herself and unhappily broke through to the Fourth Origin Tribulation.
If this cultivation speed had been experienced by an ordinary person, they would have been overjoyed. It should be known that a normal cultivator would have to spend a considerable amount of time to raise their astral source to the point where they could undergo tribulation. The Astral Source Universe would not allow them to smoothly absorb astral sources.
However, there was no such worry in this place. Not only that, but they also had to crazily absorb astral sources to increase their strength.
How great would it be if this happened to the entire human race? Lu Yin suddenly thought.
He Luo Mavis had reached the Fourth Origin Tribulation, and her strength had increased significantly. However, this passive increase made her very unhappy.
Not long after, the four astral source cyclones in Lu Yin's body simultaneously reached the threshold of the Third Origin Tribulation, and he began to undergo his tribulation.
He had never experienced such a fast cultivation speed before, and this was already the Third Origin Tribulation.
The Origin Tribulation was not difficult, and it was the same as before. She only had one minor tribulation, while he had four.
Once the four minor tribulations passed, Lu Yin officially became a Third Tribulation cultivator.
He knew that his strength had increased significantly, and he could now fight against powerhouses with a power level of a million, which was the same level as Master Yuan. If he stayed in the main hall for a little longer, he might be able to break through to that level.
Of course, this was just a thought. Even if he could break through to that level, he would not attempt it. His foundation would only allow him to reach the Third or Fourth Origin Tribulation. Any higher and he would need to continue accumulating his foundation.
At worst, he would just run to the Cosmic Tree to cultivate. In any case, there was Death Face, and the Four Cardinal Scales would not be able to find him.
He looked up and saw that everyone was looking at him, curious as to when he would break through to the Fourth Origin Tribulation.
Lu Yin glanced around and saw Chu Yuan and He Luo Mavis standing far away from him. He suddenly thought of something, and his eyes lit up. He felt like he could try to steal the statue.
Just as he was thinking about this, the main hall shook, and everyone looked outside with anticipation and apprehension.
This time, the main hall appeared above a boundless ocean. No, this was a lake?
Lu Yin looked around and saw an enormous lake with no end in sight. The reason he was certain that this was a lake and not an ocean was because there was a forest in the distance that was as large as the Mavis Divine Tree.
No matter how far away they were, even if they couldn't see the edge of the lake, they could still clearly see the surrounding forest. Even further away, they could see the trees that were large enough to support the stars and the distant Mother Tree.
The Apex
