To Xu Wang, Lu Yin was like a punching bag. He was constantly sent flying through space, but he was still able to retaliate.
He was a punching bag that could retaliate.
Pfft!
He spat out blood and was sent flying again and again. Eventually, he couldn't take it anymore, and his limits were broken. Lu Yin's body cracked open, and he was seriously injured.
Xu Wang locked onto him and kept charging at him.
As long as Lu Yin didn't want to be hit, Xu Wang wouldn't be able to hit him.
He used the Reverse Step and easily avoided Xu Wang's attacks. He didn't need parallel time; he just needed to be fast.
Lu Yuan saw that Lu Yin was seriously injured, and his heart leapt to his throat.
Wu Tian had arrived at some point, and when he saw this scene, he praised, "We never thought that the Lu family would have such a descendant."
"Are you saying that I can't take hardships?" Lu Yuan retorted.
Wu Tian replied, "I'm saying that you don't have the talent."
Lu Yuan wasn't in the mood to talk to Wu Tian right now. He stared at Lu Yin, afraid that something would happen to him.
Wu Tian looked at Lu Yin, "This child might be a turning point in human history. Whether or not he can break fate depends on him. Fertile Earth, protect him well. Anyone can die, but not him." With that, he left.
Lu Yuan shook his head, "Nonsense."
Lu Yin avoided Xu Wang as he rolled his die. He watched as it slowly stopped spinning. Four pips in the Timestop Space, just right.
The scene in front of him changed, and Lu Yin appeared in the Timestop Space. Blood flowed continuously, and he sat down. Intense pain came from every corner of his body; he was seriously injured. Fortunately, they were all external injuries and wouldn't take too long to recover.
One year. One year was enough.
Lu Yin closed his eyes and slowly recovered.
A year later, Lu Yin left the Timestop Space, but only a second had passed in the outside world.
Xu Wang continued to charge at him from afar, but Lu Yin disappeared in that second. Xu Wang was confused, but Lu Yin appeared again a second later.
Lu Yin had already recovered. No matter how serious his external injuries were, they were still manageable for a powerhouse like him.
Ming Yan's vitality had disappeared, and Ancestor Ku had been killed once. Their injuries would take a long time to recover, so Ancestor Ku had been sleeping all this time to recover on his own.
Now that Lu Yin had clashed with Xu Wang, his injuries were obvious. Although they seemed serious, they were easy to recover from.
"Come!"
Lu Yin roared. The physical pain was driving him crazy. It was too painful, and the more it hurt, the more clear-headed he became. This was what he needed right now.
Without pain, where would the strength come from?
Boom
There was a deafening collision as the Void World was torn apart in all directions. Lu Yin was sent flying by Xu Wang, and as expected, his power had no effect on Xu Wang. The surface of his body cracked open once more. When things reached an extreme, they would eventually reach their limits. Xu Wang roared angrily and chased after Lu Yin.
Lu Yuan clenched his fists; he had never seen Lu Yin in such a miserable state.
Lu Yin could defeat Xu Wang with his various techniques, but at the very least, Xu Wang would not be able to defeat him. However, he had used his own strength to fight against Xu Wang's strength, and only he could experience the misery that came with it.
He was heavily injured again, but he continued to roll his die. Once, twice, thrice, and on the third roll, he rolled four pips and entered the Time Stop Space to recover.
Then, the scene in front of him changed, and he returned to outer space. His body recovered, but he was heavily injured again. This time, he used his speed to delay Xu Wang for ten days. After ten days, he continued to roll his die and recover. Again, he was heavily injured, recovered, and continued …
Xu Wang growled. Lu Yin's repeated provocations and collisions had infuriated it to the point where it no longer cared where Lu Yin was. It rammed into the void in all directions, causing the entire region to tremble. It knew that as long as Lu Yin recovered, he would definitely appear in front of it and clash with it. There was no need for it to specifically search for him.
Hongyan Mavis had arrived, and she stared blankly at this scene. She recalled how Lu Yin had challenged Fengbo in the mirage domain. "He'll definitely get what he wants."
Lu Yuan had already calmed down. Xu Wang could not directly kill Lu Yin, and that was enough.
Blackless God had already left.
Lu Yuan was always there, and the people around him constantly changed. They had all seen Lu Yin fight Xu Wang to the death. Even though no news had been released, those who had witnessed it all suppressed their amazement and admiration.
Lu Yin had not only relied on his innate talent, turbid treasures, or background to reach his current level. He had also relied on his own hard work.
No one could help him in his battle with Xu Wang. Not even Lu Yuan could.
Thirty-eight times. Lu Yin had clashed with Xu Wang thirty-eight times, and he had been heavily injured thirty-eight times. Finally, Lu Yin was able to see the essence of Xu Wang's power.
Blackless God and the others had said that Xu Wang was born from the universe, and its power was actually a type of sequence law. Thus, when Tianfa had fought Xu Wang, it had believed that Xu Wang's power would not be able to affect it.
It had retreated because Tianfa's Chains of Time could not trap Xu Wang.
However, Lu Yin had asked Patriarch Lu Yuan later, and the Patriarch had said that he had not seen any sequence particles in Xu Wang.
Without sequence particles, how could there be sequence laws?
But without sequence laws, how could Xu Wang not be able to harm Tianfa with his power?
Logically speaking, Xu Wang's power was a sequence law.
This phenomenon reminded Lu Yin of the Zombie God. The Zombie God had hidden his sequence particles within his body, making him nearly immortal. If not for the karmic retribution, Lu Yin and the others would not have been able to kill him.
If the Zombie God was like that, then was Xu Wang's power the same?
If Xu Wang could hide its sequence particles within its body, then it must have a method to do so. This method was exactly what Lu Yin needed. If it was not a sequence law, then that would be even better. Lu Yin wanted to know where Xu Wang's terrifying power came from.
Only those who had reached his level would know that although power seemed to originate from within a creature's body, once it reached a certain level, that creature would definitely use some method to store it. It was not as simple as just having that power.
If Xu Wang's power could become the strongest in the universe, then it was not just because of its size. Otherwise, the Ancient Gods would have made themselves the largest in the universe.
Xu Wang had to have his own method of storing power.
And now, Lu Yin had found it.
He could clearly see how Xu Wang had done it. It had formed its own power into points, and then used a strange force to connect these points within its body and interact with each other.
If the points of power could be seen clearly, then the strange method of connecting them would allow one to see the same tightly connected points of power without any gaps, even if one looked at it through a magnifying glass. This was the essence of Xu Wang's power.
Creatures were very strange. They could not see the structure of their bodies, but those structures were extremely intricate.
Xu Wang had not intentionally used this method to store power, but its power was too great, and it had become an instinct.
This was exactly what Lu Yin needed.
Thirty-eight grievous injuries had allowed him to recognize this power, and he retreated step by step, putting some distance between him and Xu Wang.
Xu Wang remained where he was, staring at Lu Yin without moving.
Lu Yin had caused it to panic. It was clearly the powerhouse here and could send Lu Yin flying, but Lu Yin would always appear unscathed. This phenomenon was a little strange to it, and it instinctively didn't dare to approach him.
Lu Yin was astonished. Xu Wang was not coming?
He had originally planned to enter the Time Stop Space to study it, but it did not matter if Xu Wang did not come. Otherwise, he would have to wait another ten days to roll his die again.
An infinite inner world appeared.
Xu Wang was furious when it saw the infinite inner world. Every time Lu Yin collided with it, an infinite inner world would appear. It thought that Lu Yin was going to collide with it again, so it decided to collide with Lu Yin first.
Lu Yin hurriedly dodged. Again?
Forget it. I'll just wait another ten days and roll my die to enter the Time Stop Space.
In the distance, Lu Yuan smiled. Xiao Qi must have discovered something and was no longer rashly colliding with Xu Wang. That was good. His heart trembled every time he collided with Xu Wang, although he had gotten used to it.
To the side, Sapphire Zhiluo said, "I'm starting to admire him."
"It's not easy for you to admire someone. Back then, you only admired Chu Hei out of the nine of us," Lu Yuan mocked.
Sapphire Zhiluo said, "Chu Hei's deathly aura was so heavy that even Master was amazed. He said that once he broke through to the Primordial realm, no one in the universe would be able to compete with him in terms of absolute battle prowess. Even Master wasn't confident."
"But he still lost." Lu Yuan sighed.
Sapphire Zhiluo was curious, "How did he lose?"
Lu Yuan shook his head, "I don't know, just like how we don't know how you disappeared."
Sapphire Zhiluo fell silent, "I believe that he's not dead. Deathly aura is a type of power to him."
"Let's hope so."
Ten days later, Lu Yin rolled his die four times, but he didn't get Enhance even once. He had no choice but to hide with Xu Wang for another ten days before rolling Enhance and entering the Time Stop Space.
After entering the Time Stop Space, Lu Yin used his Limitless Inner World, and the energy lines did not collide in a disorderly manner.
The inspiration for the disorderly collisions came from the destruction of spacetime that he had seen while fishing in the River of Time. The disorderly collisions produced power that was then displayed through the Limitless Inner World in the form of energy lines. It was then absorbed and collided again, truly turning the finite into infinite.
This was one of the reasons, but there was a limit to how much he could use this infinite power. This limit was the limit of how much he could use. Once he broke through this limit, he would not be able to withstand it, and he would be heavily injured even without his enemies attacking.
The essence of power that he had seen through Xu Wang was the final step to perfecting his Limitless Inner World.
He wanted the Limitless Inner World to produce infinite power, and the power that he could use was also infinite. This was the true Limitless Inner World, or rather, the Limitless Ancestral World.
Lu Yin began to experiment.
The process was long, and changing the nature of one's power was not much easier than creating a battle technique. Even though he had seen through the essence of Xu Wang's power, it was still extremely difficult for him to try it out with his human body.
The energy lines condensed with a strange force, and if he was not careful, they would stagger. Once they did, his body would feel as if it had been struck.
One or two of them were fine, but if there were too many of them, it would cause more damage to his body.
Half a year passed, and Lu Yin continued to experiment with condensing the energy lines. He could already condense them to his wrist, which was his entire palm, and then spread to his entire body.
Just one palm took him half a year, and he had lost count of how many times he had failed. His palm had been hit countless times by the energy lines, and the further he progressed, the more energy lines there were, and the more damage his body would have to endure.
