Qing Ping nodded. "The Hui family is on the Fifth Mainland, which is why he found me during this battle. However, the captains of the True God Guards all cultivate divine power, and he is no exception. Someone who cultivates divine power, even if he is the Hui Ancestor's son, should still be under the control of the Eternals. Thus, it's best to find out more from the Hui family."
"I'll go now." Lu Yin's expression was solemn. This was related to the Hui Ancestor, and he had to understand it clearly.
Soon, Lu Yin arrived at the Neoverse, where the Hui family was.
When the Eternals had attacked the Fifth Mainland and polluted the astral source, the Seven Courts had moved to the Outerverse. They had only returned after the Progenitor's Sword had cleansed the Fifth Mainland.
Lu Yin's arrival caused the Hui family to boil over. The current Lu Yin was no longer the same Lu Yin who had visited the Hui family. Now, a single word from him could decide the fate of the Hui family.
The Hui family's patriarch, Hui Zhi, led the family to welcome him.
Lu Yin supported Hui Kong. "Brother, there's no need for such formalities."
Hui Kong laughed. "Formalities cannot be ignored. In the Above Heaven, even your Lu family's elders had to bow to you."
"That's in the Above Heaven. Alright, Brother, I'm here to verify something with the Hui family."
"Mm, go ahead."
Hui Kong was the carefree type, and Lu Yin did not put on airs in front of him. He was naturally happy to do so, as this was his Brother Lu Yin.
When Lu Yin mentioned Huiwu's name, Hui Kong's expression changed. "Why did you mention this person?"
Lu Yin was confused. "What's wrong with this person?"
Hui Kong's expression turned ugly. "Huiwu is the Hui Ancestor's son, and also the Hui family's ancestor. However, this person was ignorant and incompetent, and he relied on the Hui Ancestor's influence to stir up trouble everywhere. In the end, he was punished by the Hui Ancestor and thrown into the Daosource Sect's prison. This Ancestor Huiwu's crimes were extremely serious, to the point that the Hui family almost erased his name. If not for the Hui Ancestor, he definitely would not be in the family records."
Lu Yin understood. It was no wonder that Qing Ping had not been able to find out much about Huiwu. He only knew that Huiwu was the Hui Ancestor's son.
"Brother, why are you suddenly asking about Huiwu?" Hui Kong was curious.
Lu Yin did not plan on telling the Hui family, but he would not make up a reason to fool Hui Kong. "It's not convenient, Brother. Please forgive me."
Hui Kong smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Tell me when it's convenient for you."
"Definitely, Brother. I want to know everything about Huiwu."
Hui Kong nodded. "Although Hui Wu only has one name on the family tree, our Hui family has also preserved his deeds. I'll take you to see it now."
Not long after, Lu Yin came across another genealogy of the Hui family. This one recorded things that the Hui family didn't want outsiders to know about, with Hui Wu at the bottom.
Hui Wu, Ancestor Hui's son. After he was born, his mother passed away and Ancestor Hui went into seclusion for a hundred years. When he came out, Hui Wu was already an adult.
At that time, the Hui Family was led by the Hui Ancestor. The strongest cultivator before the Hui Ancestor was only a Star Emissary, which was nothing in the Fifth Mainland.
Such a family naturally revered Hui Wu's birth as if he were a god, and no one guided him. Hui Wu was arrogant and willful, and he had caused many problems in the Fifth Mainland.
Lu Yin took a closer look at the incidents. They were all caused by arrogant disciples, and they were not too serious. However, the real reason why Hui Wu had been thrown into the Daosource Sect by the Hui Ancestor was because Hui Wu had cursed at the Fifth Mainland's Daosource Sect while pointing at the Primogenitor's statue. He had not said much, only a few words. However, because of these words, he had been imprisoned in the Daosource.
There had been no news of him ever since.
"You are a sinner, and you have led humanity astray."
Hui Wu had not only cursed the Daosource Sect, but also the Primogenitor. He was the source of all human cultivation, and everyone revered him.
When Hui Wu said this, the Daosource Sect was shaken, and Lu Tianyi had personally imprisoned him in the Daosource Sect. From then on, he had never come out. Even when the Hui Ancestor left seclusion, the Hui Family had told him about this matter, but he had not said anything. He had only gone to the Daosource Sect to take a look, and after he returned, the name Hui Wu had become a taboo in the Hui Family.
After that, the name Hui Wu had disappeared, and the Hui Family had lost Ancestor Hui Wu. During the era of the Daosource Sect, the various elites had fought for supremacy, and the Cosmic Tree Realm had split apart. However, none of this had anything to do with Hui Wu, and it was as if he had completely disappeared.
Lu Yin retracted his gaze. "Brother, what happened to Hui Wu in the Daosource Sect?"
Hui Kong shook his head. "I don't know, and no one dared to mention it. At that time, no one in the Hui Family dared to ask Ancestor Hui, and after his disappearance and the birth of the Technocracy, no one even mentioned him anymore, much less Hui Wu."
Lu Yin looked at Hui Kong. "Brother, if possible, I would like to see the Hui Family's inherited battle technique, Golden Meteor."
Hui Kong was astonished. "Golden Meteor?"
Lu Yin nodded.
Hui Kong was puzzled. "Of course, I can show it to you, but with your strength, Golden Meteor won't be of much help."
Lu Yin wanted to see the Golden Meteor battle technique because of his understanding of Xu Wuwei and Senior Brother Qing Ping.
Previously, the Eternals had sent True God Guard captains to attack the six parallel space-time continuums, and Lu Yin had gathered the Six Direction Association's experts to ambush them. The one who had faced off against Wu Hou had been Xu Wuwei, and Xu Wuwei had told Lu Yin the details of that battle. What had caught Lu Yin's attention the most was how Wu Hou's godly power had turned into meteors that smashed down. Aside from that, Wu Hou had not used any other godly power battle technique.
In the Land of Tragedy, Wu Hou had also used this battle technique when he had faced off against Senior Brother Qing Ping.
This battle skill should be the Golden Meteor, a golden meteor that contained divine power.
Brother Hui Kong had said that the Golden Meteor battle technique could be nurtured, and the longer it was nurtured, the greater its power. Back then, he had nurtured the Golden Meteor in the Technocracy and forced Wang Shang to retreat. Since it could be nurtured, did that mean that if Wu Hou was Hui Wu, he could use the Golden Meteor battle technique to transfer his godly power without being affected?
Xu Wuwei and Senior Brother Qing Ping had said that they had not seen any traces of godly power on Wu Hou's body. True God Guard captains had to be able to cultivate godly power. Those like Mu Ji had soaked in the godly power lake for a hundred years and had some traces of godly power. If Wu Hou wanted to become a True God Guard captain and cultivate godly power, this was one way.
Therefore, Lu Yin wanted to see if it was possible to cultivate godly power outside the body with the Golden Meteor battle technique.
Soon, he saw it.
The Hui family's Golden Meteor battle technique was similar to a Virtual God, but the Virtual God was hidden in a Virtual Nest to draw the Virtual God's power and more or less had an advantage in a battle. The Golden Meteor was placed outside and cultivated continuously.
In Lu Yin's opinion, this method seemed to be better than Virtual God cultivation. There was no need for a Virtual God, and one could cultivate a Virtual God like existence with their own strength. Moreover, there was more than one. If all of them were used at a critical moment, it would definitely be shocking.
"This is a battle technique created by Ancestor Hui?" Lu Yin was surprised.
Hui Kong said, "That's right. Before Ancestor Hui, our Hui family did not have this battle technique. This is the battle record that Ancestor Hui left behind for the Hui family. It's the same as the Secret of Hui."
Lu Yin praised, "Who said that Ancestor Hui was not good at fighting? He just had a different fighting style from Ancestor Chen and the others."
Hui Kong was proud, "That's right."
Lu Yin was speechless. This was not a compliment. In his opinion, the Golden Meteor battle technique was simply a good sneak attack or ambush. If one could not beat others, one could lead others to the place where one was cultivating the Golden Meteor and smash it all down. Who could withstand this?
Ancestor Chen and Ancestor Ku fought fair and square. As for Ancestor Hui, he did not know what to say.
With Lu Yin's cultivation, he could understand the Golden Meteor battle technique at a glance.
He closed his eyes and simulated it in his mind. He found that it was not impossible to cultivate the Golden Meteor with godly power. However, his body was the carrier because the power of the Golden Meteor came from his body.
Godly power had to pass through his body, and if it did, it would be hard to say whether Hui Wu was controlled by it.
There was also Wang Xiaoyu. Senior Brother Qing Ping and Ancestor Chen believed in her, but that was before she became the captain of the True God Guard. Now that she cultivated godly power, was she still trustworthy?
Lu Yin muttered to himself for a moment and then smiled bitterly. He had cultivated godly power himself, but he was still doubting others.
No matter what, he had to meet Wu Hou. Since the other party wanted to meet him, whether or not this was a trap set by the Eternals, he had to take a look.
After leaving the Neoverse, Lu Yin returned to the Above Heaven Sect and took Senior Brother Qing Ping and Senior Brother Mu Xie to Lu Tianjing. He opened the Astral Gate in front of Ancestor Lu Tianyi. "Ancestor, if there's any danger, I'll be in trouble."
Lu Tianyi looked at the Astral Gate. "You're going to the Calamity Zone?"
"To meet someone."
Lu Yin entered the Astral Gate. Senior Brother Qing Ping had already gone in, and Senior Brother Mu Xie followed closely behind.
After passing through the Astral Gate, Lu Yin arrived at a barren planet. This planet was covered in weeds, and strange insects were crawling around. The sky was dim, and the sun was far away.
He saw the words "Hui Wu" on the ground. They were very large, as if afraid that others would not see them.
Lu Yin did not know when the other party would arrive, but he spread out his domain and searched the heavens.
Senior Brother Mu Xie walked out of the planet and patrolled the area.
A few days later, Senior Brother Mu Xie returned. "There are no humans in this spacetime, only giant beasts. The strongest are only void explorers."
Lu Yin nodded. "It doesn't seem to be a trap. Let's just wait. The war in the Calamity Zone just ended, and the captain of the True God Guard might not come out so easily."
They waited for more than half a month.
Half a month later, Lu Yin and the other two simultaneously looked in the same direction, where a figure was approaching.
As the figure approached, Lu Yin's eyes trembled; it was indeed Wu Hou.
The Eternals had placed twelve Half-Progenitors at the back of the Astral Tree Realm, and they were known as the Twelve Marquises. The leader of the Twelve Marquises was Wu Hou, and even Wang Xiaoyu was ranked below him.
The Twelve Marquises had fought against the Astral Tree Realm for many years until Lu Yin had discovered the Undying God's Half-Progenitor clone, Liu Song. The Undying God had killed his way into the Astral Tree Realm, and the Eternals had been expelled. Only then had the Twelve Marquises retreated, and nearly half of them had died.
Although Wu Hou was the leader of the Twelve Marquises, Lu Yin had never seen him before.
"Wu Hou?" Lu Yin asked.
Wu Hou landed on the planet and faced Lu Yin. "Long time no see, Path Master Lu."
"Who are you?" Lu Yin asked.
Wu Hou looked at Lu Yin. "Hui Wu."
"Hui Wu's son?"
"Yes."
"Then how did you become one of the Eternals' Twelve Marquises?
And you're even a captain of the True God Guard? "
