Star Odyssey - Chapter697

"Who else dares to oppose me? I'm the Society's Vice President. Are you all trying to rebel?" Saul shouted, his voice echoing throughout Sourcepeak Planet.

In the distance, Wei Rong sighed in amazement. "As expected of the Society's Vice President. His strength is comparable to an Enlighter's. In fact, he might even surpass ordinary Enlighters."

Angel said, "Lockbreakers already possess strength that surpasses cultivators of the same generation. These people are all gifted."

Wei Rong smiled. "So what? Brainless people will always be brainless."

Outside the Hall of Insight, Aden raised his thunder shield in front of him and blocked all the attacks from the technological weapons. Straight Metallic Man and the other Lockbreakers took advantage of this opportunity to charge in.

Fiend Li had been defeated so quickly, and Saul's rune lines had increased once again. This meant that Wei Rong's true trump card was about to be revealed.

Above the planet, an old man tore through the void and descended above Sourcepeak Planet. He took a step forward and tore through the void. His body appeared directly above Sourcepeak Planet's altar, less than a kilometer away from Saul.

Saul gloomily stared at the old man in front of him. He knew that things would not be so simple, as everyone knew that Fiend Li was not his opponent. Saul had also guessed that another expert would appear later, but he had not expected it to be this person. Lord Egret was an Enlighter with a power level of over 250,000. Even among Enlighters, he was considered an elite.

"Vice President Saul, long time no see," Lord Egret said with emotion as he looked at Saul.

Saul's gaze turned cold. "Lord Egret, you dare to make an enemy out of the Lockbreaker Society?"

Lord Egret smiled. "If the Innerverse and Outerverse had not been separated, then I wouldn't dare. But now, what's the harm in trying?"

"What price did those people pay for you to take action?

I can pay double that price, "Saul said coldly.

Lord Egret shook his head. "At our level, ordinary prices will not move us. You don't need to waste your efforts."

"Since that's the case, then the Outerverse will lose an Enlighter," Saul said as he raised a hand and pressed down on Lord Egret. Lord Egret's eyes flashed, as he had been waiting for this moment for a long time. He had wanted to battle with Saul for a long time to prove that Lockbreakers who could challenge above their Realms were nothing more than a joke..

Lord Egret made a move, and the might of an Enlighter was not something that a normal cultivator could compare to. If he moved, the entire world would be turned upside down.

With just one strike, Saul had sensed how terrifying Lord Egret was, and Lord Egret had also sensed the threat from Saul. More importantly, Sourcepeak Planet was cracking all over.

Although Saul had schemed against many Lockbreakers, that was only because he wanted to become the president of the Outerverse Lockbreaker Society, not because he wanted Sourcepeak Planet to be destroyed. He still had a lot of sentiments towards this planet, and Sourcepeak Planet could not be destroyed. Once it was destroyed, the Outerverse Lockbreaker Society's prestige would be completely destroyed.

Thinking about this, Saul flew into the starry sky without saying a word. Lord Egret smiled faintly. It did not matter. He only wanted to fight.

The battle between Saul and Lord Egret had escalated the situation, and any Enlighter who joined the battle would no longer be involved in an ordinary battle. Most people would never see an Enlighter in their entire lives.

Only Lu Yin and a small group of people had already gotten used to this. After all, there were quite a few Enlighters in Ironblood Weave.

No matter how earth-shattering the battle between Saul and Lord Egret was, it would not affect the current Sourcepeak Star. They were getting further and further away from the planet.

There was a loud boom, and a huge hole appeared in the ground of the Hall of Insight.

Xi Qi's face changed. "Brother Lu, those people are destroying the Hall of Insight."

Lu Yin suddenly charged out, and his forcefield condensed into a towering tree. Countless branches extended out and wrapped around the mercenaries, and many cultivators appeared from all directions to attack them. Lu Yin was most familiar with the Umbral Butterfly Tribe cultivators, as they were absorbing the energy from the surrounding plants. There was also a group of cultivators who were very strange. Their figures were almost ghostly, and they were difficult to see with the naked eye.

"I never thought that the Ghost Shadow Sword Sect would send people here as well." Ku Wei leaped out of his original position and pointed at a place where no one was around. Although he was clearly pointing at the air, blood seeped out of his fingertip. It was not his own blood, but that of a Swordsman cultivator.

Xi Qi was confused. "The Ghost Shadow Sword Sect?"

Ku Wei smiled at her. "It's a very famous sword sect from the Sancta Weave. It's as famous as the Moke Sword Sect."

Lu Yin's heart sank when he heard this. Another power had appeared. Just how much power had Wei Rong gathered?

Suddenly, Lu Yin's pupils shrank as a terrifying number of rune lines appeared in the air. This number was no less than Aden's, which meant that this was a peak Hunter.

Lu Yin wanted to call out to Aden, but Aden was still at the forefront, and the owner of these rune lines was already closing in on him.

Lu Yin did not dare to be careless, and he was about to put on his universal armor. However, after some thought, he decided against it. If he ran into danger, then he would run. He could not wear his universal armor for the rest of his life.

"Brother Lu, let's go in," Xi Qi said.

Before Lu Yin could say anything, the fish above her head continuously slapped its tail. "Mount, quick, go in. Quick, don't worry about him."

"Why?" Xi Qi was confused.

She looked at Ku Wei again, but he was already gone.

This fellow's perception of danger was no less than Lu Yin's. Perhaps he could not see the rune lines, but he had his own methods. Before he left, he even glanced at Lu Yin sympathetically.

Lu Yin's face turned solemn, and a bead of sweat rolled down his forehead. "Xi Qi, you go first. Leave quickly."

"Oh," Xi Qi acknowledged, and then she headed towards the interior of the Hall of Insight. However, before she could take more than a few steps, the rune lines suddenly rushed towards her. The fish shouted, "Run! There's danger!"

Xi Qi's face paled, and she instantly felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar. Her entire body went cold, and she could not move at all. It was as if an invisible killing intent had wrapped around her, and she had fallen into a death trap that she could not escape from.

A sword emerged from the void and appeared right in front of Xi Qi's eyes, thrusting towards her forehead.

The fish's entire body stood upright, and no one knew what it was trying to do.

At that moment, Lu Yin grabbed Xi Qi and flung her away. His face brushed past the sword, and he used Secret Sidestep to avoid the blade. He then raised a finger, and his eyes went slack as he used the Dream Finger.

The void froze as the Dream Finger traversed through space and descended into nothingness. There, a shadow appeared. Lu Yin thought that it was just one shadow, but strangely, a second shadow appeared at the same time. The two shadows overlapped, and a second sword appeared at the same time, pointing straight at Lu Yin. The fish's true target was Lu Yin.

The Twin Ghosts were Wei Rong's backup plan, and they were worthy of being called the top experts of the Ghost Shadow Sword Sect. They could do things that even Enlighters could not. The Twin Ghosts could use their swords in four directions, and the Dream Finger could hit one of them while the other's sword could take Lu Yin's life.

Ever since he had found out that Lu Yin was coming to Sourcepeak Planet, Wei Rong had done some research on him. From his point of view, the Twin Ghosts had a very low chance of killing Lu Yin. After all, Lu Yin had external items that could allow him to participate in the battle between Enlighters. However, Wei Rong had not expected Lu Yin to not rely on external items. The Twin Ghosts' goal had changed, and now, they wanted to kill this person.

However, both the Twin Ghosts and Wei Rong had underestimated Lu Yin. They knew that Lu Yin had a secret technique that could redirect attacks, and they also knew that Lu Yin had external items that could block attacks. However, they had not known about the Dream Finger's existence. Lu Yin's lack of external items had made the Twin Ghosts careless, and the finger had been mistaken for a secret technique. After all, the Twin Ghosts could not avoid this finger, and they had been prepared to endure it. The price was that the second sword had a 100% chance of killing Lu Yin. However, when Lu Yin activated the Yu Secret Art, the Twin Ghosts' second sword was redirected just as the Dream Finger was about to strike him.

The Dream Finger forced the Twin Ghosts back, and half of their bodies went numb. Some parts of their bodies even split apart, dying their clothes red.

The Twin Ghosts spat out a mouthful of blood and disappeared into the void. He had been injured, and this finger was even more terrifying than he had imagined. It possessed an incomprehensible destructive power and an indescribable pressure.

Not too far away, Xi Qi was stunned.

In the distance, Ku Wei's brows rose. What a terrifying attack! This guy's strength is terrifying, and it will be very difficult to seize the Yu Secret Art.

The Dream Finger was his trump card, and he did not want to reveal it. Otherwise, he would be targeted just like the gun he had used before, and it would be very difficult for him to obtain it against another powerhouse. However, he was speechless when he discovered that there were still quite a few people who had seen the Dream Finger, including Xi Qi and Ku Wei. He could not just kill all of them, so he felt a little helpless.

Although the Twin Ghosts had been heavily injured by the Dream Finger, his rune lines had not decreased by much, and they were still around.

The Twin Ghosts thought that their bodies were ghostly and that no one could see them, but Lu Yin knew where they were. He just could not hit them.

It was just like back in Ironblood Weave, when those Enlighter realm astral beasts had fled into the void. Even if Lu Yin had a gun that could kill them, it would be useless if he could not hit them.

At this moment, a Lockbreaker ran out from within the Hall of Insight and shouted in a daze, "The treasury has been robbed! The Society's treasures from countless years are gone! They're gone!"

"Be careful!" Xi Qi shouted.

The Lockbreaker stood in place without moving as a powerful light pierced through his body. Behind him, dozens of mercenaries rushed out.

Lu Yin's heart sank, as he had come too late. These people had been prepared, and they definitely had a plan to take away the Society's treasures. The only way to do so was to seal off the entire Hall of Insight, but that was not realistic. Not only was there a troublesome enemy in front of them, but there was also the enemy's Enlighter in outer space. No matter what, the enemy would be able to retreat safely.

With a crack, a corner of the Hall of Insight collapsed.

In the distance, Wei Rong watched as the Hall of Insight trembled and even collapsed. He wrapped his right hand around Angie's waist and asked, "Isn't it beautiful?"

Angie could feel Wei Rong's manly aura, and she felt a sweetness in her heart. She nodded. "Beautiful."

Wei Rong smiled. "There will be even more beautiful sights like this in the future. You won't be lonely for the rest of your life."

Angie's eyes lit up, and she glanced at Wei Rong before replying softly.

Wei Rong's lips curled up. Angie was the young matriarch of the Umbral Butterfly Tribe, and the Umbral Butterfly Tribe was very important in his plans. After all, he wanted to rule over the entire Umbral Butterfly Weave.

Behind them, Ah Mu had a complicated look in his eyes. Seventh Bro had already entered the Hall of Insight to provide support, but the outcome was still the same. Everything was in the hands of this man in front of him, and everyone's fates were under his control. What terrifying intelligence.

The Hall of Insight's collapse accelerated, and even though many Lockbreakers fought fiercely to protect the Hall of Insight, it still completely collapsed under the sorrowful gazes of countless people. The Outerverse Lockbreaker Society, which had been supported by four towering trees for countless years, completely collapsed.
