Viletree's eyes widened and then shrank as he watched the void in front of him split open, and a Void Thunderbeast walked out.
No one knew that there was a Void Thunderbeast in the energy gap, and it was a Void Thunderbeast with a power level of close to 300,000. Even Monster Loach had not known, and neither had Tian Hou or Lu Yin.
Even Viletree was unable to react to such a terrifying beast, and he was pierced by it.
"Human, how did you know that there was an energy gap here?" the Void Thunderbeast asked in a dull voice.
Viletree's face paled, and he lost all of his strength. His body was being torn apart.
"It doesn't matter." Viletree's body crumbled into pieces, and the sword and pyrolyte in his hands fell to the ground.
The Void Thunderbeast looked in the direction of the distant battle, but it did not go over. Its mission was to protect the energy gap, and even if all the beasts in the Primal Zone died, it had nothing to do with it. This was Skymender's order.
On the other side, Wen Qichen and Topmist were surrounded by three Enlighter beasts. The last Enlighter beast that had sent Wen Qichen flying had wanted to chase after Lu Yin, but it was inexplicably attracted to Progenitor Wushang's hide on the corpse's head, as if something was summoning it.
The beast's target shifted to the corpse, as it wanted Progenitor Wushang's hide.
The corpse was truly enraged, and it took a step forward to appear in front of the beast. It raised a hand, and its withered arm collided with the beast's claw. Topmist watched in horror as the arm pierced through the claw and tore the beast apart. The giant beast's body was torn apart like paper.
At this moment, the other three Enlighter beasts, Wen Qichen, and Topmist were all stunned.
The corpse clearly did not have a terrifying power level, but the strength it displayed was enough to make people's hearts tremble.
There was a furious roar, and one of the Enlighter beasts attacked the corpse. The void was sliced apart layer by layer, and a terrifying strength completely submerged the corpse.
The corpse's eyes were like black holes, and it turned around to evade the terrifying attack. It transformed into a ray of light that pierced through the Enlighter beast's body, killing yet another Enlighter beast.
Topmist was furious, as this was definitely a monster with a power level of 300,000 or above. He wanted to escape.
Wen Qichen looked into the distance. Why hadn't Viletree detonated the pyrolyte yet?
On the dark planet, Lu Yin's body was in intense pain, and his mind was subconsciously seeing some images. His body was changing, and he was breaking through.
The light flowed along his body, illuminating the planet. It penetrated the atmosphere and entered the void. Strange phenomena appeared vaguely, but it was still very blurry.
Phenomena only existed in legends. Legends had it that geniuses with innate gifts would be able to produce phenomena when they broke through to the Explorer realm. Such geniuses were favored by the universe and were favored by the heavens, as they had the potential to directly observe the essence of the universe. Since the beginning of history, there had been very few people who had produced phenomena when they broke through to the Explorer realm. Even the current Ten Arbiters of the human race had not all produced phenomena when they broke through to the Explorer realm.
A phenomenon was a sign, a sign that one had entered a new level.
The Hall of Honor had once specially given titles to those who had caused such phenomena. White Knight Spirit Palace of the Ten Arbiters was one of those who had caused such phenomena. White Knight's name came from the Hall of Honor, and that was what a title was.
And now, in the Primal Zone, Lu Yin had broken through to the Explorer realm, which had caused the universe to tremble and caused a phenomenon to appear.
Unfortunately, no one was there to appreciate it. Even Lu Yin himself didn't see anything strange.
Above the planet, the phenomenon gradually took shape. The void rippled like water, and a small sapling appeared. It slowly grew above Lu Yin's head and quickly flourished until it covered the entire planet. It then continued to grow outwards and gradually filled the heavens.
It was a tree. Its branches hung down, distorting the void and giving birth to gas. It was as if it was creating all things. Under one branch, a round ball was born. Under another branch, a sword was born. Under another branch, a square object was born. Under another branch, a branch, a branch, a branch, a branch, a branch, a branch …
All things grew from trees, and the tree was born from Lu Yin. It gradually covered the heavens.
The phenomenon became more and more obvious, and its range grew larger and larger. It attracted the attention of countless astral beasts in the Primal Zone, but none of them dared to approach it.
Inside the energy gap, the Void Thunderbeast stared at the phenomenon in astonishment. What was that?
Wen Qichen, Topmist, and the Enlighter realm astral beasts were all attracted by the phenomenon.
The desiccated corpse looked up as if it had sensed something. It then exploded the Enlighter realm astral beast in front of it like a madman and charged towards Lu Yin's location. Along the way, Wen Qichen and the other two Enlighter realm astral beasts were swept aside and reduced to a bloody pulp.
Topmist was stunned. In the blink of an eye, three Enlighters had died. The desiccated corpse displayed a power that he could not comprehend, and a phantom image appeared behind it, causing his heart to tremble.
He was lucky that he wasn't in the direction that the desiccated corpse was heading.
In the distance, the pyrolyte still hadn't detonated, and Topmist knew that things weren't looking good. Something might have happened to Viletree as well, so he didn't hesitate to charge towards the entrance of the Primal Zone. Wen Qichen was dead, and Lu Yin's fate had nothing to do with him. He wanted nothing more than for the kid to die. Viletree was probably done for as well, and this mission was a complete failure. The only good news was that Lu Yin had lied to him, and Monster Loach hadn't appeared at all. Since that was the case, Topmist had to return alive since he had already done what he needed to do.
When he saw the phenomenon, Topmist had some guesses, but when he saw the desiccated corpse charge over, he knew that Lu Yin's situation was grim.
The phenomenon was still expanding, and the desiccated corpse charged past the giant tree that the phenomenon had transformed into and appeared on the planet. It glanced at Lu Yin and then raised its foot to charge over.
At that moment, a mysterious rune appeared on Lu Yin's back. The rune then transformed into a lock that pierced through his body and suppressed his breakthrough. This was the same seal that had appeared when Lu Yin had broken through to the Melder realm. The crazy headmaster had shattered one of the layers, but there was still more.
The changes to Lu Yin's physical body and the phenomenon stopped at that moment, and the giant tree that the phenomenon had transformed into gradually disappeared.
Once the phenomenon completely disappeared, it would mean that Lu Yin's breakthrough had failed, and his formcast model would shatter as well. Who knew when he would be able to break through again?
The desiccated corpse appeared behind Lu Yin and slammed down with a palm while Lu Yin was still unconscious. "Ancient bloodline detected. Target confirmed. Kill."
Bang!
Lu Yin's back received the desiccated corpse's palm without any resistance.
Even the Enlighter realm astral beasts, Liu Qiuyu, and the others could not easily withstand the desiccated corpse's palm. Lu Yin had just broken through and was not wearing his universal armor, so he should have been smashed to pieces.
However, the desiccated corpse's palm coincidentally landed on the seal. Although the seal formed by the mysterious runes was preventing Lu Yin from breaking through, it was also protecting him from another perspective. It was just like how the seal had protected Lu Yin's body from being destroyed when he had been struck by the warship's beam.
The desiccated corpse's attack failed, and it slammed down again. There was a thump, and the ground cracked open. The seal on Lu Yin's back glowed brightly and blocked the desiccated corpse's attack.
Thump!
Thump!
Thump!
…
Palm after palm, the desiccated corpse continued to attack. The phenomenon that had appeared during Lu Yin's breakthrough seemed to have stimulated it, and it had no intention of giving up.
The seal was continuously attacked, and the suppression on Lu Yin's breakthrough became increasingly unstable. Every time the seal was about to completely suppress Lu Yin's breakthrough, it would be destroyed by the desiccated corpse's palm.
The giant tree formed by the phenomenon was constantly changing in size, forming a strange cycle.
Throughout this cycle, Lu Yin remained in an unconscious state. He did not break through, but he did not exit either. In this state, he continued to stare at the jade finger, and he continued to stare and stare …
The monkey finally woke up, and the first thing he saw when he opened his eyes was the desiccated corpse's palm. The monkey was the most pitiful one.
At the entrance of the Primal Zone, Topmist rushed out and panted heavily. He did not dare to linger, and he rushed towards Seasons Fort. He did not want to return to this broken place for the rest of his life.
It was a pity that the kid had caused a phenomenon during his breakthrough. He was an innate genius, but he was definitely going to die.
In the entire Primal Zone, aside from the Enlighters who had attacked Yellowsoil Fort and Giantghost Fort, all of the other Enlighters had been killed. Only the Void Thunderbeast remained.
On a planet in the Primal Zone, the desiccated corpse continued to attack, as if it had no intention of giving up. It was completely different from when it had ambushed Wang Wen, as its desire to kill Lu Yin far exceeded that of Wang Wen.
One day, two days, three days … Even on the tenth day, the desiccated corpse did not give up and continued to attack the seal.
Lu Yin remained in this unconscious state for ten days. During these ten days, he stared at the jade finger and saw many changes, as if he had comprehended something.
At Seasons Fort, Topmist returned and told Wang Wen about what had happened in the Primal Zone. Wang Wen did not spread the news, and he only determined that Lu Yin was dead.
Viletree and Wen Qichen were also dead, but Wang Wen was not in a hurry to announce the deaths of these two Enlighters. Otherwise, Seasons Fort would definitely be thrown into chaos.
News of Lu Yin's death could not be concealed. Aside from him, no one else could see the location of the hole. Even if he could hide it for a day, he would not be able to hide it until the next war.
Because of Lu Yin's death, Seasons Fort was in an uproar, and Lu Yin's name suddenly disappeared from the Ironblood Points rankings.
Even though he had been given many Ironblood Points, he could no longer be ranked.
When Charon learned of Lu Yin's death, he sighed with a complicated expression.
Wang Wen went to the cliff where he had been drinking with Lu Yin and poured a bottle of wine into the sea. "Chesspiece Bro, don't be anxious. Soon, all of us will be there to accompany you."
At Yellowsoil Fort, Wendy Yushan's heart sank when she saw Lu Yin's name disappear from the rankings. She hurriedly flipped through the rankings, hoping that Lu Yin had exchanged all of his points for his name.
However, when she reached the end of her search, she put down her gadget with a pale face and closed her eyes. "Should I go first?"
In the lower five forts, Yue Xianzi was also checking Lu Yin's ranking, but she discovered that his name was not on the entire list. Even if he had exchanged his points, it was impossible for him to not leave a single one behind. She had guessed that this was the case, and just like Charon, she was filled with complicated emotions.
An Shaohua was bitter. He had originally planned on joining the alliance, but it seemed that his plans had gone down the drain.
Even if the people from the other forts discovered that Lu Yin had died, they would at most lament about it. Only those from Seasons Fort knew what the consequences of Lu Yin's death would be.
There were still two days until Wang Wen's prediction of the astral beasts' invasion.
In the Primal Zone, the desiccated corpse was still attacking. Countless astral beasts surrounded it, but none of them dared to make a move. Monster Loach and the Enlighter realm Amethyst Beast also appeared, but they still did not dare to interfere. The desiccated corpse did not seem as strong as them, but it gave them a strange, indescribable feeling that made them feel apprehensive.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and Lu Yin's giant tree was suppressed within the planet. It was becoming smaller and smaller, which meant that the desiccated corpse's strength was becoming less effective against the seal. Eventually, the seal would be able to completely suppress Lu Yin's breakthrough.
At this moment, the Celestial Beast Empire's reinforcements arrived.
