Any one of the Seven Skygods had come from ancient times and were difficult to deal with. Lu Yin had never thought that the Undying God would be involved in his search for the Unbounded Headquarters.
He was also wondering how many more secrets this Astral Tree held.
If Liu Song could involve the Undying God, would there be others who could involve the other Seven Skygods as well?
Or perhaps even the One True God?
Lu Yin and Bai Xianer returned, and the group of Half-Ancestors looked at them.
Lu Yin did not hesitate to attack the Undying God with the slipper. He wanted to see if the Ancestral Mang would swallow him.
The Undying God could no longer maintain his free state, and E 'Chi viciously slammed down with the slipper. This time, however, the slipper did not succeed as it was blocked by a dark red energy. It was divine power.
Lu Yin's heart sank. Divine power was enough to block the slipper?
Bai Xianer was disappointed. "It's too late."
Qing Chen said, "Let's attack together."
"It's useless." Ce Donglai shook his head. "How can we Half-Ancestors harm him?"
Qing Chen was unwilling to give up.
Strands of dark red divine power appeared from the Undying God's shattered body, connecting his body together like threads. His entire body was a strange red, almost as if he was glowing. "Did you really think that we spent so much effort to bring divine power here just to recover?
You're underestimating the One True God. He's the only one in this universe who can rival a Primogenitor. He even … "He did not continue.
Lu Yin's expression was solemn as he controlled E 'Chi to continuously attack the Undying God. He did not believe that he could not exhaust the divine power.
Wait, he suddenly thought of something and retrieved the Progenitor's Sword from his cosmic ring. If the One True God could rival a Primogenitor, then the Primogenitor's sword should be able to cut through divine power as well!
The Undying God saw Lu Yin retrieve the Progenitor's Sword, and the dark red divine power released a dazzling light. "Is that the Progenitor's Sword?"
All the Half-Ancestors looked at the sword in Lu Yin's hand. The Progenitor's Sword?
The Primogenitor's Sword from long ago?
Lu Yin leaped up and slashed out with his sword. "Let's see if the Progenitor's Sword can kill you." He then slashed down.
All this time, he had been worried that someone would covet the Progenitor's Sword, but he had never used it. Even when he had been hunted down by Xia Shenji and fought against Xia Shenji and Bai Sheng on the fifth continent, he had kept the Progenitor's Sword. Now, there was no need to hide it anymore. The Four Sides of the Balance had long known that the Progenitor's Sword was in his possession. If he didn't have to wait until now, when would he?
The Ancestral Sword had a terrifying aspect. Once it was touched, it would turn into ashes. Wang Si and Wang Si both disappeared like this. Now, he wanted to see if the Undying Deity would turn into ashes.
To a Primogenitor, there shouldn't be any difference between an Ancestor and a Half Ancestor.
Undying God stared at the descent of the Progenitor's Sword, and so did everyone else. In the distance, Zu Mang was also watching, and even Lu Yin could feel Shen Ying's gaze on him.
Whoosh —
As the wind blew, the Mother Tree swayed, shaking the entire Starry Sky of Trees.
How could there be such a strong wind to move the Mother Tree?
In that short moment, he felt like an eternity had passed. He even had time to think about what kind of wind could move the Mother Tree. Had time been extended?
Or had time paused?
Wait, he slowly turned to the side and saw that the falling leaves had stopped in midair. When he turned back again, he saw that Big Sis, Bai Xianer, and the others had all stopped moving. Time had stopped, but it wasn't gray.
Everything around him turned dark red. Even the Undying God that was falling apart in front of him stopped. Only the tip of his sword continued to fall slowly. But he had a feeling that in this dark red space, the tip of his sword would never touch the Undying God.
Who?
Who made a move?
Beads of sweat dripped down Lu Yin's forehead, and his grip on the sword's hilt became much heavier. Was the sword too heavy?
"Let go, it's too heavy. You can't hold it." A gentle voice sounded in his ear. Lu Yin wanted to turn around, but he couldn't move. He could have turned his head just now, but he couldn't even make a sound. What was he doing?
Was he being controlled?
He gripped the hilt tightly. Let go?
Impossible. He wouldn't let go.
"Why are you so stubborn?
The essence of life is just a coincidence of the universe's formation. Once the universe changes, life will change as well. Humans will no longer be humans and can become another species. Of course, that species can call themselves humans. Why do you care about your current state? "
The gentle voice drew closer and closer.
Lu Yin couldn't move, and his eyes widened. This person had to be from the Eternals. Seven Skygods?
No, he basically knew all of the Seven Skygods, and the Ruler's Realm couldn't have been let in so easily. Could it be?
"The essence of your life has changed, and you can call yourself a human or any creature with a code name. That creature can make you stronger and better explore the essence of the universe. It can even grant you eternal life and give you the time and interest to observe the birth of one species after another. Isn't that good?
Why do you want to become an observed species? "
Lu Yin wanted to speak, but his sword continued to descend slowly. He couldn't do anything else.
He roared in his heart, and he wanted to release the power in his heart, but he couldn't do anything in this dark red space.
"You're still too stubborn, but you'll figure it out one day. On that day, you'll kill everyone you know and care about. You'll let go of everything and become a new species that rules the universe. On that day, you'll no longer be stubborn about the word 'human' and can call yourself a human. But at that time, that word will no longer be what you want." At this point, Lu Yin could only watch as a crack appeared on the Progenitor's Sword. He was shocked. How was this possible? This was the Progenitor's Sword!
Why did it have a crack on it? It wasn't just the Progenitor's Sword. At this moment, the Mother Tree shook even more violently. An incomparably huge crack appeared on the Mother Tree's trunk, and the entire Astral Tree exploded. Countless people coughed up blood.
Lu Yin was instantly sent flying, and the Progenitor's Sword fell out of his hand and into the Mortal Realm.
He spat out a mouthful of blood. He had been suppressing this mouthful of blood for a long time, but it had only been an instant.
Everything changed in an instant.
The crack on the Mother Tree's trunk shocked Xia Ziheng and the rest. It was as if a crack had appeared in the sky. Bai Xianer stared at Lu Yin's bleeding arm. She hadn't seen wrong; the Progenitor's Sword had cracked.
It had only been an instant, but it felt like a long time had passed.
The Undying God's eyes turned, and he saw the crack on the Mother Tree's trunk. "Has a god descended?"
"What's going on, Little Seven?"
Big Sis didn't understand, and no one else knew what had happened. They had only seen Lu Yin charge over and slash down with his sword before being sent flying back. The sword fell from his hand, and the Mother Tree's trunk cracked.
Lu Yin's expression sank. "The Sole True God has acted."
"The Sole True God?"
Several people cried out, especially Xia Ziheng and the rest. They had heard this name far too many times. This was the only ruler of the Eternals, and it was equivalent to the Progenitor to the humans. Such an existence was above the Seven Skygods, but he had actually acted?
They had never heard of the Sole True God in the Astral Tree's history.
Bai Xianer's expression turned grave. "He broke the Progenitor's Sword and the Mother Tree just to save the Undying God?"
Lu Yin clenched his fists. Just to save the Undying God?
Was that so?
It seemed like the Undying God wanted to talk to him.
Did he say that he would one day kill everyone he knew and cared about and become a new species?
"Since the gods have descended, then I can't be lazy anymore," the Undying God said lazily. "Do you know what the greatest weapon against the humans is?"
Everyone subconsciously looked at him.
"It's not battle techniques, slaughter, or modification. It's …" The Undying God paused for a moment before continuing, "the human heart."
His eyes widened, and the same feeling appeared. Lu Yin's body turned cold, and everyone felt as if the Undying God was staring at them from behind. "What do you think would happen if the entire human race were to use the Corpse King Transformation?"
Lu Yin's eyes narrowed. Not good.
Everyone's hearts sank.
…
Middle Realm, Blue Moon District. Liu Zhan's expression was solemn, and his sword was stained with blood. Behind him were several cultivators from the poor.
"Society Master, why don't you go back first?"
Someone couldn't help but ask.
Liu Zhan coldly replied, "No need." He then scanned the area below. "He's in this area. Find him. You have to find him. We can capture more spies through him."
The other cultivators looked at each other helplessly.
The Liu family's Grand Elder, Brilliant Sword Grandmaster Liu Song, was actually the Undying God. This news had already spread to the poor, and the entire Liu family's territory had been destroyed by the Ancestral Mang. No one knew where the sword stele had fallen, and the number of people who had died in the Liu family had yet to be calculated. Although Liu Zhan was the Society Master of the Poor's Blue Moon District, he was still a member of the Liu family. They hoped that Liu Zhan would go back and deal with the situation, but it just so happened that someone was a spy and an Emissary, so Liu Zhan couldn't leave.
Liu Zhan naturally wanted to go back, but he had a duty to fulfill, so he couldn't leave. He could only hope that the family would be fine.
"What's that?"
Someone exclaimed.
Liu Zhan looked over, and his eyes trembled. "Mummy, capture him, but don't kill him."
The Four Cardinal Scales and the Poor's had already informed the Astral Trees that the mummy was not to be killed and could only be captured. Although they didn't know the reason, since it was so serious, they naturally had to carry it out.
The mummy was only an Enlighter, so it was very easy to capture.
However, the moment the mummy was captured, it suddenly opened its mouth and blurted out a technique. This technique was the Corpse King Transformation.
When Liu Zhan heard about the Corpse King Transformation technique, his expression changed, and he immediately contacted Superintendent Qingchen.
In the distance, two figures were hiding underground. One was a man who was panting heavily, and his back was covered in blood. The other was also a mummy that had been captured by the man. When he heard the mummy mention the Corpse King Transformation technique, his eyes lit up.
He had been discovered as a spy, and there was no way out in this region of space. Since that was the case, he would cultivate the Corpse King Transformation.
He hadn't even had the chance to cultivate it when he was a spy, and he hadn't expected that the opportunity would present itself as soon as he was discovered. As long as he cultivated the Corpse King Transformation technique, the Eternals would invade this region of space, and he wouldn't even need to explain his identity. The Corpse King Transformation would be the best explanation.
Did he need a mummy to help him cultivate the Corpse King Transformation?
The man didn't hesitate and grabbed the mummy to escape. He wanted to cultivate as soon as possible. He had to master the Corpse King Transformation.
