Lu Yin was shocked. So that's how it was. If these butterflies didn't want the Butterfly Ancestor to awaken, then things would be much easier.
He stirred up the deathly stillness and condensed it into his palm. When things reached an extreme, they would react in the opposite direction. One of his palms was alive while the other was deathly stillness. The two palms merged and struck downwards, using the Seal of Life and Death.
There was a loud thump as the flower's attack tried to send him flying, but Lu Yin forcefully endured the pressure as he descended and used the Seal of Life and Death to viciously strike downwards.
A cloud appeared and blocked the attack; it was an aura treasure.
Lu Yin's Seal of Life and Death pressed into the cloud and scattered the aura treasure. The Seal of Life and Death consumed some of its power, but another flower appeared at his abdomen as an Eternal butterfly approached.
The next moment, the Eternal butterfly charged towards Lu Yin from below. The Seal of Life and Death's power was constantly being consumed by the scattered cloud in Lu Yin's palm. The function of the cloud was not to block, but rather to drag. It was not a cloud at all, but rather a thread-like object that could pull at the Seal of Life and Death's power.
At the same time, the flowers at his abdomen and shoulder attacked at the same time, causing his body to shake.
The butterfly below arrived, its aura piercing towards Lu Yin.
Lu Yin pressed down with his palm, and the Seal of Life and Death, which had consumed a great deal of energy, shattered the aura and pressed down on the butterfly.
The butterfly was shocked; this was impossible.
Its own strength was clearly pulling at most of Lu Yin's palm's power, so how could it still suppress its aura?
It did not have much time to think as the Seal of Life and Death pressed down.
The butterfly was struck by the palm, and its wings were torn apart as its body slammed into the ground like a meteor. There was a thump as Lu Yin's back was attacked, but there was still a flower on his back.
His body was caught off guard and sent flying into the distance, but he took the opportunity to charge out as Sirius's stars appeared once more.
The power of Life and Death erupted, plunging the world into darkness.
Beneath the canyon, a butterfly was crushed into a pile of rubble, its wings torn apart and its body torn apart. It was the butterfly that had been struck by Lu Yin's palm.
As long as he could hit it, the butterfly's defenses would not be able to stop Lu Yin. Absorbing a certain type of spiritual force would not cause any damage, but the damage would not exceed that of a butterfly that had absorbed the same amount of energy.
Colorful butterflies descended one after another and surrounded this butterfly.
"It's that civilization.. We've never wanted to come into contact with them."
"The Butterfly Ancestor said that they shouldn't attack us.."
"It didn't attack because it was bound by karma, but this creature isn't eternal."
"How can a non-eternal life form be so powerful?
He escaped from our encirclement, withstanding the Passing Butterfly Flower and Myriad Gold Aura time and time again. Furthermore, he clearly used up all of his energy just now, so why does he have it again? "
"I don't understand. His strength is also extremely strong. His essence, energy, and spirit are enough to withstand the loss."
"If he can hide one power, he can hide a second and a third. Now, we need to figure out why he came to the Butterfly Ancestor Continent. What is his goal?"
"Continue searching. As long as he's here, he won't be able to hide. Now, let's bury him."
As soon as he finished speaking, the heavily injured butterfly's body slowly melted into the soil until it disappeared.
Soon after, a group of colorful butterflies flew out once more and spread their pollen across the entire Ancestral Butterfly Continent in search of Lu Yin.
Under the gloomy sky, the seawater continued to beat against the reef.
Lu Yin was currently on an island and sighed as he looked at the Butterfly Love Flowers on his body. The last one had already disappeared; had that butterfly died?
Although his attack was heavy,
The other party was an eternal being, so he shouldn't have died so easily. Or was it because he was too far away?
He still had two flowers on him, and as long as they didn't disappear, he couldn't easily attack.
He was too passive, and the Passing Butterfly Flower always affected him at critical moments.
Even if it couldn't easily injure him, it was enough to affect his attacks.
Just now, he had paid the price of exploding all of the stars in his Art of Sirius to deceive all of the colorful butterflies, which had given him a chance to hit his opponent with the Seal of Life and Death. He wouldn't have such an opportunity again, as the butterflies wouldn't believe that his deathly still energy had been completely exhausted.
The deathly still energy contained within the Three Deaths Technique was equivalent to ten times the deathly still energy contained within the Art of Sirius. It would be great if he could kill a butterfly with each burst of deathly still energy.
Above the ocean, pollen sprinkled down.
Lu Yin didn't dare to affect the pollen at all.
He had probably been discovered earlier because he had affected the pollen. It was fine if the wind blew, but if he interfered with the pollen, he would be discovered.
He could only passively dodge.
He would have to wait until the Butterfly Love Flowers on him disappeared.
They wouldn't be able to find him that easily.
Actually, he had thought of hiding at the bottom of the ocean, but it was useless. The pollen would still fall to the bottom of the ocean, and water couldn't affect it at all.
Lu Yin continued to dodge. There were many of these colorful butterflies, but no matter how many there were, they couldn't cover the entire Progenitor Butterfly Continent with their pollen. This method was different from willpower or consciousness, which could cover an entire universe, so Lu Yin still had room to dodge.
However, as time passed, there were fewer and fewer places he could hide.
A few months later, the Butterfly Love Flowers on him disappeared.
Lu Yin relaxed. Without the Butterfly Love Flowers, he wouldn't be too passive in battle, and with his previous battles, it would be easier to defend against this technique.
What a pity.
However, if this clone could teleport as well, then things wouldn't be so troublesome.
Lu Yin hid under a cliff, and only a single person's position wasn't covered by the pollen. Everything else was covered, and he would have to wait for a while before leaving.
This position was the furthest away from all of the Eternal butterflies that had appeared, and he consciously avoided them. He was in the dark while the butterflies were out in the open, and he could see their movements clearly. As long as he didn't touch the pollen, he could avoid them.
All of a sudden, an Eternal Realm butterfly flew towards them.
Lu Yin was shocked. Had he been discovered?
No, the other butterflies hadn't moved. Only this one was coming over.
With his previous experience of being surrounded, Lu Yin needed to see through all of the butterflies' movements before he could decide what to do next.
There was no need to move; this butterfly wasn't looking for him.
Lu Yin suppressed his urge to escape and just stared at the approaching butterfly.
The butterfly slowly flew above Lu Yin's head before turning and rushing towards the bottom of the sea. Lu Yin stared at the bottom of the sea and watched as it dug out a strange stone. It then stared at the stone and breathed slowly. Was it swallowing the energy of ten thousand metals?
Lu Yin watched this scene and gradually sank into it. It was as if he had become one with the butterfly, and a stone appeared in front of him as well. Inhale, inhale, inhale. This was the Way of Breathing, and it was something that Lu Yin had practiced with Grandmaster Qing Cao in his original body.
He had comprehended breathing and awakened his body's memories, allowing him to feel the breathing of the universe with his main body. This had allowed him to master the first and second needles of the Yama School.
That was his main body. Although this skeleton clone had the same comprehension, it only had one consciousness, and that was Lu Yin himself. However, his body had yet to comprehend breathing, and it was different from his main body.
His main body's memories were awakened by breathing, but this skeleton clone's memories weren't.
And now, as he watched the colorful butterfly swallow the Ten Thousand Gold Qi, the experience of fusing with it actually made the white bone avatar hear the breathing of a stone.
With Lu Yin's own comprehension, it was easy to comprehend the path of breathing.
Lu Yin was immersed in the butterfly's ability to swallow the energy of ten thousand metals. The energy was swallowed by the butterfly, but it also seemed to be swallowed by him. It wasn't just the energy of ten thousand metals, but also the sea, the mountain, and the world. Although it was weak, he could still hear it.
The skeleton clone had also stepped into the path of breathing.
This feeling was both familiar and strange.
Lu Yin's Seven Yama Needles, and the first needle struck his forehead. He raised his bony hand, and his body slowly sank to the bottom of the sea. He looked at Caidie in the distance, and a stream of energy appeared at his fingertip. It was identical to Caidie's Myriad Gold Qi, and he used it to strike the first needle.
Go.
The stream of energy stabbed towards the butterfly.
The butterfly was still swallowing the energy of ten thousand metals when it suddenly sensed danger and saw the stream of energy stabbing towards it. Ten thousand metals?
Why?
When it saw the energy of ten thousand metals, its first reaction was not to avoid it, but to be puzzled. This was because only a creature of its clan could shoot out such an attack. Why was this energy of ten thousand metals coming towards it?
The needle in the eyebrows was confused.
The stream of energy pierced through the butterfly and disappeared into the void.
Using the energy of a needle, it was invisible and formless. It could break one's perception. On the surface, it didn't hurt at all, but it could damage the enemy's mind. At this moment, the butterfly was stunned on the spot.
Lu Yin took a step forward, raised his hand, grabbed the butterfly's wings, and exerted force.
The Eternal Realm butterfly was forcibly torn apart by Lu Yin. The huge force made the butterfly unable to resist. It could only let out a shrill scream as its life energy surged out and blasted towards Lu Yin.
Lu Yin retracted his hand, and with a palm, a terrifying force penetrated the butterfly's body. He then took another step forward and left.
In just a moment, the butterflies on the sea floor appeared one after another. They stared blankly at the butterfly that had fallen to the ground and died miserably. How could it be so fast?
They couldn't figure out how Lu Yin could kill an Eternal Realm being so quickly even though he wasn't an Eternal Realm being.
The previous Eternal Realm butterfly's death had been an illusion created by Lu Yin using the entire Sirius Art's Deathly Stillness, but this one seemed to be very easy.
"There's a reaction of life energy. It looks like it was torn apart when it was caught off guard. How could that creature tear its body apart at such a close distance without causing too much of a commotion?"
"Logically speaking, it could've at least used the Butterfly Loves Flowers to counterattack, and it wouldn't have died so miserably. Also, its compatibility with the laws of the universe isn't weak, so it didn't use it at all."
"That's the strangest thing. Why didn't it use its compatibility with the laws of the universe?
Why didn't it use the Butterfly Loves Flowers? Why did it let that creature tear it apart? "
"Wake up all of our clansmen. From now on, form groups of two. We're in big trouble."
"No matter how troublesome it is, we can't wake up the Butterfly Ancestor."
Far away, Lu Yin had long since retracted his aura and was walking through a strange city.
This wasn't a human city, but a city built by a creature that looked like an insect. He walked in the shadows, but no creature could see him.
Looking back at the bottom of the sea, the first needle of the Yama Gate was really useful. The needle had the same effect as the Forgetful World Technique. What was more powerful than the Forgetful World Technique was the long-term damage to the enemy's mind. It was equivalent to depriving the enemy of part of their intelligence and turning smart people into idiots.
This was quite terrifying.
If the butterfly's defense was strong, it could withstand the first needle's attack.
It wouldn't be able to win the subsequent battle because its intelligence would be damaged. Even if it was just a little bit worse than before, it would be enough to drag it into the abyss.
