Nightking Gu did not care about the other spacecraft, as he only glanced at it. That one glance was enough to determine the other's strength; it was a weakling.
Sleeping Young Master was inside that spaceship. At that moment, he was sleeping.
Wendy Yushan appeared in front of Nightking Gu.
One was ranked eighteenth on the Top 100 Rankings, while the other was ranked fifteenth. The difference did not seem that great, but Lu Yin could still see it with his eyes. Nightking Gu's rune lines surpassed Wendy Yushan's.
Without wasting any time, Nightking Gu raised his skeletal face, and his sunken eyes flickered with a cold light. He suddenly disappeared and reappeared in front of Wendy Yushan. He punched out, and at the same time, a greyish-white stream of energy swept out. Lu Yin had seen a similar scene before; this was the Nightking's Body.
Wendy Yushan slashed out with her sword, and the tip of her sword sank deep into the bone. The might of Ten Thousand Swords in One broke through Nightking Gu's Nightking's Body, but not a single drop of blood flowed out. Instead, Wendy Yushan's entire body was smashed deep into the mountain range by Nightking Gu's punch.
Countless people were shocked. Wendy Yushan had killed Zhanbing Daynight with a single slash, which had been extremely powerful. However, such a slash was actually ineffective against Nightking Gu. It could not be said that it was ineffective, as she had broken through Nightking Gu's defenses. However, this heavy defense was still not enough to harm him.
Lu Yin used Flash to appear behind Nightking Gu and struck out with a palm. Nightking Gu saw it, but he did not dodge and allowed Lu Yin to strike him. "Thirty Stacks, Seventy-Tenfold Shockwave Palm."
Boom!
The ground cracked open, and the two of them sank into the ground. Lu Yin's pupils shrank, as his palm force could not break through the Nightking's Body.
Nightking Gu turned around and looked at Lu Yin with cold eyes. He raised his left hand to grab at Lu Yin, but Lu Yin did not dare to let him grab him. He quickly retreated, but Nightking Gu was not slow either. Anyone with a powerful physical body would not be slow, and Nightking Gu chased after Lu Yin's retreat. His fist trembled, causing the space around it to collapse.
Lu Yin felt his chest tighten, and just as he was about to use his Fatesand, sword qi swept out from beneath his feet and slashed towards Nightking Gu. Nightking Gu's fist smashed downwards, colliding with the sword qi. There was a thump, and shockwaves shot out in all directions, causing the void to scatter. Thunderous cracks in the void, and Nightking Gu's strike left a huge crater in the ground.
Wendy Yushan leapt out and stood in front of Lu Yin, looking at Nightking Gu with a grave expression.
Nightking Gu straightened his body, and his skeletal face sent a chill down everyone's spine.
"Don't interfere. This person's attack isn't something you can block," Wendy Yushan whispered.
Lu Yin looked at her seriously. "We definitely can't use that. At worst, we'll just give the mountain range to him. Even if we work together, we won't be able to defend the mountain range, and the Sea King won't be able to blame us."
Wendy Yushan nodded, and then she turned her sword and swept it towards Nightking Gu.
Nightking Gu's body distorted the void. He clearly did not have any muscles, but he gave off a feeling of unparalleled strength. This strength even caused Wendy Yushan's sword to become sluggish.
Nightking Gu faced Wendy Yushan's sword, but he did not dodge at all. He allowed the sword to slice into his body as he struck out with a palm. Wendy Yushan's face changed as Nightking Gu's palm struck her abdomen. She spat out a mouthful of blood as her entire body was sent flying into the distance.
Nightking Gu charged forward and punched out again. Wendy Yushan's eyes turned cold as she forcefully twisted her body to avoid Nightking Gu's attack. She then stabbed out with her sword and stabbed it into Nightking Gu's body. This time, blood dripped down the blade. She had injured Nightking Gu, but Nightking Gu did not seem to care. He grabbed the sword with one hand and allowed it to slice into his palm while his other hand viciously swatted towards Wendy Yushan's forehead. If this attack connected, then Wendy Yushan would definitely die.
Lu Yin appeared at the critical moment and kicked out with six-lined battle force wrapped around his leg. The enormous strength caused Nightking Gu to raise his eyebrows, and he had no choice but to redirect his palm strike towards Wendy Yushan to meet Lu Yin's attack head-on. Lu Yin's leg twisted, and then there was a cracking sound as his bones broke and his battle force collapsed. However, his strength had still forced Nightking Gu back by two steps, allowing Wendy Yushan to escape from certain death.
Lu Yin crashed into the ground with a thump, and his right leg was bent at an irregular angle. Intense pain assaulted him, but he gritted his teeth and endured it. When he saw that Wendy Yushan had escaped danger, he finally relaxed. However, the pain from his broken right leg soon followed.
Ever since he had embarked on the path of cultivation, he had rarely been at a disadvantage in terms of physical strength. Now, he was facing Nightking Gu in a head-on clash of physical strength, and he had no way of retaliating. This was a super expert ranked 15th on the Top 100 Rankings.
Fortunately, he had only broken his right leg, and this sort of injury would heal quickly. Lu Yin touched his cosmic ring; it seemed like it was time to use external items.
Wendy Yushan appeared beside Lu Yin and crouched down to press a hand on his leg.
Lu Yin was puzzled. "What's wrong?
It's not that serious. "
Wendy Yushan did not reply. Blood dripped from the corner of her mouth, but her gaze was serious. Lu Yin saw a faint hazy halo emanate from her palm, and after that, his right leg no longer hurt, and it returned to normal.
This was an innate gift of healing.
Back at East San Dios, Lu Yin had guessed that Wendy Yushan might have an innate gift, but he had never expected her to be a healer. This sort of innate gift was one in ten thousand, even among all cultivators with innate gifts.
There was no need to elaborate further on the effects of healing. When Wendy Yushan had displayed her innate gift of healing, the various great powers in outer space had become envious.
If a cultivator with a healing innate gift was present in a battle, it would greatly reduce the number of casualties, and it would also increase the chances of victory. Furthermore, such a cultivator with a healing innate gift would not be weak.
"You can actually heal!" Lu Yin exclaimed.
Wendy Yushan stood up. "Alright, let's see how it goes."
Lu Yin stood up and moved his right leg. He looked at Wendy Yushan in admiration. "I was wondering why the difference between you and that person was so huge. If you added in your healing innate gift, then the difference wouldn't be that great. You could even exhaust him to death."
Wendy Yushan's expression turned serious, and she turned to look at Nightking Gu. "I won't exhaust him to death. He's very strong, and the damage I inflicted on him was only because he wasn't willing to dodge. If he fought seriously, then I might not have been able to hit him."
"What if I joined in?" Lu Yin asked.
Wendy Yushan gripped her sword tightly. "Don't interfere. He's not someone you can touch."
Across from her, Nightking Gu stared coldly at Wendy Yushan. He clenched his bloodied hand and frowned. This woman was a little troublesome, and he needed to end this quickly.
With that thought in mind, Nightking Gu charged towards Wendy Yushan, and a spiral of air erupted from his body. Wendy Yushan's expression changed, and she slashed out with her sword. However, the edge of her sword was obstructed by the air currents, and by the time it touched Nightking Gu, it was unable to break through his Nightking's Body. Nightking Gu was afraid of Wendy Yushan's innate gift, so he was fighting seriously.
Wendy Yushan's sword was ineffective, and she subconsciously moved to block in front of her. Nightking Gu's fist slammed into the edge of her sword, causing it to distort. The shockwave that passed through the sword's edge shook Wendy Yushan, injuring her once again. She was sent flying into the distance like a meteor.
Nightking Gu charged forward again and appeared above Wendy Yushan's head. He clasped his hands together and viciously smashed down. He would not give Wendy Yushan any time to heal herself.
However, Wendy Yushan was ranked in the top twenty of the Top 100 Rankings, so she would not be defeated so easily. Nightking Gu's attack seemed heavy, but Wendy Yushan was still able to withstand it. She dodged to the side, causing Nightking Gu's attack to miss and shatter the ground once again and distort the void.
The two of them moved faster and faster, and sword qi and fist winds collided, causing the surrounding void to collapse. Countless onlookers were shocked.
Lu Yin narrowed his eyes and filled them with star energy. Others might not be able to see it, but he could clearly see that Wendy Yushan had been attacking more than defending at the start, but now, she was attacking more than defending. She was on the verge of collapsing, and Nightking Gu's continuous attacks had made it impossible for her to heal herself.
As he watched Wendy Yushan's injuries worsen, Lu Yin's eyes suddenly widened. The Giant Emperor's third eye appeared in his left hand, and he fully activated his domain as he stared at the two of them. He then used Flash to rush between them and raised his hand, causing three grains of Fatesand to merge into one to form a block of earth that covered his entire body. This block of earth happened to be right in the direction that Nightking Gu had attacked Wendy Yushan.
Bang!
There was a loud explosion as a giant spatial tear swept out and tore through the void. Nightking Gu's fist had landed squarely on the Fatesand, but it had been completely blocked. The next moment, Wendy Yushan's sword stabbed into Nightking Gu's body, causing another penetrating injury. Fresh blood dripped down from the tip of the sword, creating a glaring scarlet color.
Everyone stared at the battlefield in disbelief, as Lu Yin had actually blocked Nightking Gu's punch. It wasn't just Nightking Gu himself who was shocked; even Wendy Yushan stared at Lu Yin in astonishment.
What was that?
Back then, the Fatesand in Lu Yin's heart had awakened, and it had helped Lu Yin block Feng Mo's attack. Although it had only been a casual attack, Feng Mo was a bona fide Hunter. With the defensive power of one grain of Fatesand, Lu Yin estimated that it could defend against an attack from an expert who was around fifty on the Top 100 Rankings. With three grains of Fatesand combined, it was not impossible for Lu Yin to block Nightking Gu's punch.
There was a loud thump, and the three of them separated. Nightking Gu retreated more than ten steps and clutched his abdomen. For the first time, there was shock in his eyes as he looked at the block of earth in front of Lu Yin. What was that?
It had actually blocked Nightking Gu's punch.
Very few people recognized Fatesand, including Nightking Gu and Wendy Yushan, the two elites of the younger generation. Only the Enlighters in outer space, and not just any Enlighter at that, could recognize it.
Elder Ren had been the first to recognize it, and he was astonished. How could this brat have Fatesand?
That was a supreme treasure of the universe, and even the Sea King's Dome would find it difficult to obtain one.
Nightqueen Qiuyu was astonished. "It's actually Fatesand! The Sea King actually gave something so important to him. It seems like he's determined to make him his son-in-law." Clearly, Nightqueen Qiuyu had misunderstood, but she was not the first to do so. The other Enlighters who recognized Fatesand all guessed that it had been given to Lu Yin by the Sea King. Otherwise, how could Lu Yin possibly have such a precious item?
Not all Enlighters could recognize it, and some did not. After all, Fatesand was extremely rare, and even the powerhouses of the Innerverse had not come into contact with it.
On Planet Pyrolyte, Wendy Yushan looked at the block of earth in front of her in confusion. "What's that?"
"Fatesand. It's a precious treasure that can block that guy's attacks. Let's work together. I'll block, and you'll attack. Eventually, we'll exhaust him to death." Lu Yin gritted his teeth.
Wendy Yushan's eyes flashed, and she nodded. "Alright."
Then, under countless gazes, Lu Yin grabbed Wendy Yushan's waist and charged towards Nightking Gu. Wendy Yushan did not refuse, and although she felt uncomfortable, she still allowed Lu Yin to grab her. She then raised her sword and slashed at Nightking Gu.
