Hearing this, Lu Yin was shocked. "Is this a place that even you don't want to go?"
Hongyan Mavis nodded. "Master told us to come to the mirage domain to break through to the Ancestor Realm. We have all succeeded, but we still came here because of the incredible phenomena in these regions. We all want to explore them, but they are too dangerous. Even Master said that there are some regions that we can't touch."
"That old guy had nowhere else to go, so he went to the forbidden area."
Lu Yin was curious. "What's in the forbidden area?"
Hongyan Mavis looked at Lu Yin. "You can go and take a look once you've truly broken through. You should be able to protect yourself then, but you can't say for sure. Back then, Niu Niu could have broken through, but she mysteriously went to a forbidden area. When she came out, she stopped breaking through and scattered her cultivation to start anew. She could have been the first person to break through among all of us."
"Destiny?" Lu Yin was shocked.
Hongyan Mavis said solemnly, "Niu Niu is the most talented cultivator that Master has ever acknowledged in front of us. She was the first to break through the Ancestral Barrier and the second to come to the Mirage Domain. However, after going to the Forbidden Land once, she dispersed all of her cultivation. It was also after her that all of us were full of fear of the Forbidden Land and never went there before breaking through the Ancestral Barrier."
"Even Brother Chuyi was frightened at that time. He was a cautious person, and even though he was the first to come here, he didn't go to the forbidden area. Thinking about it still scares him."
"What happened to Destiny in the forbidden area?" Lu Yin couldn't help but ask.
Hongyan shook her head. "She didn't say, but the power she cultivated helped her become Destiny."
Lu Yin looked outside the bamboo forest. The forbidden area was the mirage. This place hadn't been created by the progenitors, but had been forcibly left behind by them. This place's history might be even older than the first human, as it existed in the river of time.
"You don't have to think about the forbidden area right now. Don't go there before you break through. That old guy Fengbo knows about the legends of the forbidden area, so he didn't go there. However, he was forced into a corner and could only escape there. Continue cultivating, Xiao Qi."
"Although I can't affect the forbidden area, it won't be easy to leave the mirage either."
Lu Yin nodded and stopped thinking about it. He focused on researching his own strength and thinking about how to make up for his lack of vitality. As long as he could make up for it, then he would have the strength to fight head-on and even kill a Seven Skygods.
This was a true metamorphosis. It was equivalent to breaking into the Ancestor Realm without breaking into the Ancestor Realm.
After a while, Hongyan Mavis's eyes flashed and the corners of her mouth curled up.
Beside the great river of time, Feng Bo was breathing heavily, his eyes filled with disbelief. Half of his body was covered in blood, seriously injured.
I pushed down the Mavis Divine Tree. That's my fault. But I'm also not wrong. I'm not from this universe. What does it have to do with me? I only participated in the war. That's all. Why should I be blamed? "
"I will not die. I will leave this place alive. I have done what I promised Eternity. I want to leave. I want to leave this universe …"
Hongyan Mavis looked out of the bamboo forest. She didn't know what had happened to Fengbo, but from the looks of it, he seemed to have suffered a great blow.
However, it was impossible for him to leave. Forget about what he had done in the past.
The countless beings of the second continent would never agree to that.
Fengbo spent the rest of his time frantically searching for a way to leave the mirage.
However, it was difficult for him to leave.
"Hongyan, why are you so persistent?
Your persistence is useless. Let me go, and I promise that I won't tell the Eternals that you're still alive. I won't participate in this war anymore. This universe's war has nothing to do with me. Let me go. "
Hongyan Mavis's gaze was cold. "There is karma in this world. You have to bear the consequences of your actions."
"Don't you care about the current you?
What happened in the past can't be changed. What you need to do is live. Do you want to be captured by the Eternals like Wu Tian and live a life worse than death?
Or do you want to be dismembered like the Grim Reaper?
Fate doesn't dare to appear, Gu Yizhi betrayed us, and the Three Realms and Six Daos have done nothing. Hongyan, there's no point in fighting me to the death! "
Hongyan Mavis looked at the floor of the wooden hut. Every word seemed to be saying, "I believe that I'll see them again sooner or later. Didn't you stay in the mirage for so long because you wanted to kill me as well?"
"You're too stupid. Humans are no match for the Eternals," Fengbo roared.
Lu Yin suddenly opened his eyes. "That's not important. As long as you live with dignity, you won't have lived in vain. I also believe that the humans will win. Unfortunately, you won't live to see that day." He then walked out of the bamboo forest.
Hongyan Mavis looked at Lu Yin's back and sighed. Was this the fourth or fifth time?
He was transforming every time, and each time, he was getting closer to killing Fengbo. This time, it really was over.
Lu Yin walked out of the bamboo forest and looked towards the River of Time.
Fengbo saw him as well, and his eyes widened. "Brat, do you really think that you can kill me as a half-step Ancestor?
What a joke. Nothing like this has ever happened before. "
Lu Yin's expression was calm, and he looked at Fengbo as if he was looking at a dead man. "Humans walk their own path, and their greatest weapon is their intelligence. The Eternals believe that emotions are their greatest weakness, and today, I'll kill you because of them."
He then visualized a continent, and at the same time, a continent appeared in the sky above his heart. It overlapped with the visualized continent, and the mirage trembled once more as it covered the sky and pressed down on Fengbo.
Even so, it was still impossible to kill Fengbo.
Just as the continent crashed down, the Wordless Heavenly Book appeared and bloomed. Light scattered across the continent, and Hongyan Mavis and Fengbo watched in disbelief as the continent transformed.
"Headmaster, we believe that you're not dead."
"Headmaster, come back alive."
"Headmaster …"
"Headmaster …"
Countless voices echoed in the air. These were the prayers of countless people from the Fifth Mainland. They were transmitted through the Wordless Heavenly Tome to Lu Yin's ears, and they were transmitted to the entire continent. They were using their prayers as spirits to bring vitality to the continent.
Hongyan Mavis' mouth fell open. How could this be?
Fengbo's face paled. Emotions were the weaknesses of humans, but this shouldn't be. These were clearly weaknesses, and those were just ordinary people.
The difference between a Half-Ancestor and an Ancestor was vitality. Lu Yin hadn't broken through to the Ancestor Realm, so he couldn't bring life to the continent. Even the Mortal World was useless. However, the Wordless Heavenly Book was vitality, and it represented the entire Fifth Mainland. It even represented the Primordial Space.
Lu Yin could expel anyone and prevent anyone from being recognized by the Primordial Space. Didn't the Wordless Heavenly Book represent the will of everyone in the Fifth Mainland?
Will was a living being.
The Wordless Heavenly Book was the greatest vitality in the universe.
As long as someone recognized Lu Yin and prayed to him, they could bring him life.
Power.
Everything he had done in the past had paid off. The people of the Fifth Mainland wouldn't give up on him, and even if he died, they would pray for him to come back alive.
No matter how the Eternals tried to incite them, the people of the Fifth Mainland would always be loyal to Lu Yin.
They would bring life to the continent.
The continent crashed down, pressing down on Fengbo.
Fengbo expanded the void, but it was instantly crushed. He roared, "Brat, no one can kill me as a Half-Ancestor! Impossible! Don't even think about creating history! I'll fight you to the death!"
Fengbo's body cracked open, and blood seeped through his skin. The God of Defense appeared once again, and each time it appeared, Fengbo would be severely injured. However, he had no other choice in the face of danger.
The tower-shaped longsword slashed down at the continent.
There was a loud bang, but this time, the continent didn't collapse. It was filled with vitality, making up for the slightest bit, and the longsword was pressed down.
Fengbo knelt on one knee, his hair disheveled. He looked like an evil spirit, and his eyes were filled with endless hatred. He mourned and cursed, and his blood splashed onto the longsword. The longsword split apart, forming a tower that protected him. Blood flowed along the tower, dyeing it scarlet.
The continent couldn't press down for a while.
Fengbo smiled bitterly. "Brat, you'll never be able to kill me. Let's see how much time you have left in this mirage. The difference between you and me isn't just a small gap. It's a gap that can never be closed."
The continent couldn't crush the tower.
Hongyan Mavis clenched her fists. She hadn't expected Fengbo to have such a trick up his sleeve. He was using his own blood to make the tower indestructible. This was Fengbo's trump card, and he hadn't even used it during the Second Mainland's war.
However, he hadn't been forced to this extent at that time.
This was a defensive power, not an attack.
Lu Yin calmly watched as Fengbo mocked him. Had he not expected this?
Of course he had. Which one of the Seven Skygods didn't have a trump card?
The Corpse Goddess hadn't even used her trump card when she fought against the Grand Empyreans. She would only use it when she was truly in a life or death situation.
Fengbo was the same.
"I want to see if that little bit really can't be made up for. Old man, watch carefully."
Lu Yin raised his hand, and it seemed to overlap with the continent that was suppressing Fengbo. The earth was below, and the sky was above. Now that the earth was in the sky, he would use the Overturning Sky Palm.
If he wanted to overturn the sky, he would have to press down on this continent. This continent had already suppressed Fengbo for so long that it could almost kill him. How strong would the power to overturn this continent be?
This was the Overturning Sky Palm.
The Overturning Sky Palm was an intent realm battle technique that belonged to Lu Yin. The continent also belonged to Lu Yin, and everything belonged to Lu Yin. He could move the earth in the sky, and he could also overturn it.
Fengbo looked up in shock, and an indescribable chill caused his mind to go blank. Lu Yin still had a trick up his sleeve?
Boom!
The continent disappeared, and in its place was a palm print that covered the sky and flipped it over. It also shattered the blood-stained tower.
That little bit had finally been made up for.
Fengbo looked up at the constantly cracking tower and howled in despair, "Impossible! You're just a Half-Ancestor! How can you make up for the gap between us?
That's impossible. Impossible. "
The tower shattered, and Fengbo spat out a mouthful of blood. His entire body had endured an indescribable weight, and all of his bones and meridians had shattered. His cultivation, battle techniques, strength, and innate gifts had all been shattered.
