High in the sky of the Central Plane, Lu Yin looked at his body and saw that the lacerations still contained Divine Martial Qi, which was trying to invade his body. He circulated the power in his heart and disintegrated the Divine Martial Qi.
Kui Luo was the closest to Lu Yin, and when he felt this power, he was shocked. "Kid, how did you escape from Shenwu Plane?
When you said that you were going to save someone, I thought you were dead for sure. Why didn't those half-ancestors attack you? "
"They can't beat me," Lu Yin casually replied. He then ignored Kui Luo's strange expression and tossed a pair of slippers to Qing Ping. "Senior, use this to fight Savage Blade."
Qing Ping took the slippers and looked at the five black toe prints on them. "An ancestral weapon?"
"It should be. Anyway, I knocked it out." Lu Yin paused and looked up. A huge shadow loomed over him, and a terrifying Progenitor's power pressed down. This was the Hellwyrm.
Kui Luo gaped in shock. "Isn't this the thing from Shenwu Plane?"
The Hellwyrm saw Kui Luo's shocked expression and then raised its claws, baring its fangs in a threatening manner.
Lu Yin's face sank. "Useless thing, scram."
Kui Luo's heart trembled, and he hurriedly pulled Lu Yin back. "Don't curse. What if it bites us?"
Qing Ping's expression turned serious. In terms of aura, this Hellwyrm far surpassed Xia Shenji's clone. Qing Ping could judge Xia Shenji's clone with the Balance Scale, but he might not be able to judge this Hellwyrm. There were strong and weak Progenitors, and Xia Shenji's clone was the weakest.
The Hellwyrm's threatening gestures satisfied Kui Luo's frightened expression.
"Senior, this slipper knocked it out. This useless thing runs away faster than a rabbit when it meets Xia Shenji," Lu Yin said hatefully.
The Hellwyrm raised its head and raised its claws even higher, letting out a deafening roar. Kui Luo panicked, as he felt that Lu Yin must have gone crazy. This thing was not to be trifled with.
Above the Hellwyrm, Xia Shenji's clone chased after them with Savage Blade.
On the other side, Xia Ziheng, Sir Yu, and Wu Yao appeared and looked at Lu Yin's group in bewilderment. They wanted to attack, but the Hellwyrm's existence.
"Run!" Kui Luo shouted as he pulled Lu Yin away.
The Hellwyrm's claws reached down to grab Lu Yin, but at that moment, Xia Shenji stepped forward and appeared above the Hellwyrm's head. "Go after him, you bastard!"
The Caged Wyrm paused and raised its eyeballs to look above its head. It felt a familiar feeling of being threatened, as if Savage Blade could cut off its head at any moment. It was afraid and immediately chased after Lu Yin and the rest.
Qing Ping and the others could not compare to Prison Flood Dragon in terms of speed. Thankfully, the place where they had landed was not too far away from the Fifth Mainland's sourcebox array, so it was easy for a Half-Progenitor to cross over.
"It's right ahead." Kui Luo's eyes burned with passion.
Behind him, the Prison Flood Dragon roared. Its claws covered the sky, and Xia Shenji slashed down with his blade. "Die!"
Lu Yin turned around and stared at the claws and the broken blade. He took out a corpse and placed it behind him. At the same time, Qing Ping pointed a finger and the void flickered. A mysterious feeling spread out and enveloped the claws and broken blade.
No one understood this finger move, including Lu Yin and Xia Shenji.
However, this finger also caused the Prison Flood Dragon and Xia Shenji's attacks to vanish. This was Tracing Back to the Past.
If ten people practiced a battle technique, they might be able to produce ten different effects.
Tracing Back to the Past was a battle technique like this.
Mister Mu did not teach a fixed battle technique, but rather a type of power, a type of thinking, and an unknown possibility.
When Qing Ping had undergone his Half-Progenitor tribulation, that final figure had clashed with his finger, and a strange phenomenon had occurred. Even the Culinary God and Kui Luo could not understand this power.
This finger move had given the three of them a chance to survive, allowing them to cross the sourcebox array and escape from this region of space. The Prison Flood Dragon had not been able to stop in time, and it had charged into the sourcebox array. Xia Shenji's clone and the Star Alliance cultivators on its back had all disappeared from the Tree of Heaven.
When everything returned to normal, the three Half-Progenitors looked at each other in the distance. "Where are they?"
"That's right. That's a sourcebox array that leads to the Abandoned Lands."
"It doesn't matter. Ancestor Shenji has the broken blade and is controlling the Prison Flood Dragon to chase after Lu Xiaoxuan. No one will be able to save Lu Xiaoxuan. Notify the Wang family to hurry up and repair the New Void Corridor. Once it connects to the Abandoned Lands, we'll be able to welcome the Ancestor and the expeditionary army back. Lu Xiaoxuan will definitely die."
The mountains and rivers returned to normal. Not much time had passed since Lu Yin had attacked Shenwu Plane and left the Tree of Heaven, but it also felt like a long time had passed. No one had expected that a cultivator with three Origin Tribulations would be able to escape from Shenwu Plane, creating history.
…
In the Glory Realm, the sourcebox array suddenly lit up. Elder Gong, Celestial Master High Sage, Celestial Master Xiu, and Drunkard all looked up. "They're back."
"Qing Ping should have broken through to Half-Progenitor. I wonder if that kid Lu Yin has made any progress." Elder Gong was filled with anticipation. He was looking forward to Lu Yin's cultivation of the Sirius Technique. It would be best if he could reach great success and then return the item under his feet to the Sirius Sect.
Drunkard laughed. "It's only been ten months or so. How much progress can they make?
It's already good enough that they returned safely. "
"Yeah, it's good that they're back." Celestial Master Xiu sighed.
The group watched on expectantly. Suddenly, four figures descended from the void. They were Qing Ping, Kui Luo, Lu Yin, and the corpse that he had retrieved. He had wanted to use the corpse to block the attacks of the Caged Wyrm and Xia Shenji, but there was no need for that. Qing Ping had wiped out their attacks with a single finger.
Celestial Master High Sage and the others were just about to step forward when a huge shadow loomed over them. The Caged Wyrm had appeared.
With its appearance, a terrifying Progenitor's power swept out, causing the Glory Realm to tremble and then the Neoverse. The Progenitor's power spread towards the Cosmic Sea, the Innerverse, and the Outerverse.
On the Sixth Mainland, the Blood Ancestor suddenly opened his eyes, and his expression changed. "Progenitor's power?"
Although the Caged Wyrm did not have any intelligence, even Xia Shenji had needed to rely on the broken blade to suppress it. One could only imagine how powerful the Caged Wyrm's cultivation was. In the Progenitor realm, very few could compare to it.
Kui Luo shrieked and pulled Lu Yin away. "What are you standing there for? Run! It's an enemy!"
Drunkard and the others felt their scalps tingle. Enemy?
An enemy in the Progenitor realm?
The Caged Wyrm landed on the ground and subconsciously roared. It raised its claws in a threatening manner and released its Progenitor's power without restraint. Above its head, Xia Shenji gripped the broken blade and looked around. He also released his Progenitor's power.
Elder Gong and the others were stunned. One Progenitor was one thing, but why were there two of them?
"Run! Run! Run!" Kui Luo shouted.
Lu Yin stepped backwards and shook off Kui Luo. "Why are you running? Have you forgotten where you are?"
Kui Luo was stunned, but then he suddenly reacted. "We …
Have we returned to the Fifth Mainland? "
He looked at Elder Gong and the others and then laughed maniacally. "Hahahaha, this is the Fifth Mainland! Hahahaha, there's no need to run. Kid, you're invincible! Hahahaha!"
Qing Ping exhaled and calmly looked at Xia Shenji and the Caged Wyrm.
Celestial Master and the others also reacted and heaved sighs of relief. They had been frightened by Kui Luo, and they hadn't been able to react to the despair of facing a Progenitor's power. Now, they finally realized that this was the Fifth Mainland, and they didn't need to fear anyone here.
The Caged Wyrm bared its fangs and brandished its claws, unleashing its Progenitor's power without restraint. It shook the stars and shook the entire Fifth Mainland. It felt that this region of space was not as sturdy as the Starry Sky of the Trees, and there was no aura that it feared. It felt invincible.
Lu Buzheng, Leng Qing, and even Jueyi, who were far away in the Astral Beast Domain, felt it. Progenitor's power was too dazzling in the Fifth Mainland, so why had a Progenitor suddenly appeared here?
Xia Shenji stood on the Caged Wyrm's head and coldly glanced at Lu Yin's group. "You're not running anymore?"
Lu Yin wiped the blood off his body and was about to speak when Kui Luo spoke first. "Old brat, don't you know whose territory you're in?
This is the Fifth Mainland, not the Starry Sky of the Trees. Do you know that you're alone here?
Xia Shenji can't protect you. "
Xia Shenji's clone frowned. "Nonsense." He looked into the distance and shook his head. "It really is an abandoned land. There's no Progenitor here. Eh?"
His expression suddenly changed. "Why isn't there an astral source?
What's that? "
The Fifth Mainland's astral source universe had been swallowed up by that liquid, causing those who cultivated astral sources to be unable to progress. Xia Shenji's clone discovered the liquid and looked at it in bewilderment.
"Alright, don't think about it anymore. I'll slowly tell you once we're in prison," Lu Yin said.
Xia Shenji looked at Lu Yin. "You've all gone crazy. Since that's the case, I'll send you on your way." He then raised his broken blade and swung it down. At the same time, the Caged Wyrm's claws also swung down. Although the Caged Wyrm's blade was aimed at Lu Yin, his gaze landed on Qing Ping. This person had wiped out their attacks with a single finger, and that had involved the power of time. Even the Caged Wyrm had not been able to understand it. Could this person continue to wipe out their attacks?
It would be best if he could, as that would give him some inspiration to cultivate the power of time.
Unexpectedly, Qing Ping did not move, Kui Luo did not escape, and neither did the other Half-Ancestors. They just stared at Xia Shenji. Their gazes were not filled with despair, but rather with mockery.
Xia Shenji could not figure out what was wrong with these people, but it did not matter. He would wipe them all out with a single slash.
Xia Shenji had slashed out with this blade several times, and he was certain that no one would be able to block it this time. He had already pushed his Divine Martial Qi to its limits, and his Progenitor's strength was enough to shatter everything. Coupled with the Caged Wyrm's claws, no one in the Wasteland would be able to block it.
The blade descended, getting closer and closer to Lu Yin. Lu Yin looked at Xia Shenji. "I'm curious. Ever since Progenitor Chen became a Progenitor, have any of you fought with him?"
Xia Shenji did not hear him clearly. What did this brat just say?
The next moment, the void fell silent as the river of stars swirled around. Xia Shenji's vision changed, and he saw a boundless starry sky with stars revolving around him. The indescribable terror caused his scalp to go numb. He felt like an ordinary person facing a landslide or a tsunami. This was the first time since he had become a Progenitor that he had experienced despair. It was a feeling that he had long since forgotten, but now, it had suddenly resurfaced.
A star rotated in front of him, and Lu Yin's figure grew infinitely larger. He looked down and stomped down on the starry sky.
