Star Odyssey - Chapter698

Outside the Hall of Insight, countless people on Sourcepeak Planet watched this scene with sorrowful gazes.

The Hall of Insight was Sourcepeak Planet's holy land, and it was also their faith. Sourcepeak Planet had become famous throughout the universe because of the Lockbreaker Society, and the Hall of Insight represented the Lockbreaker Society. But now, everything was gone.

The collapse of the Hall of Insight seemed to represent the end of an era, and the end of an era where the great powers had monopolized the universe. What came next was a reshuffling of the Outerverse's power structure, which was exactly what Wei Rong wanted. Only by breaking the current structure could a new structure be established.

Everyone watched as the Hall of Insight completely collapsed and crashed into the mountain range below.

Wei Rong laughed. "This is the first, but it won't be the last. Let's go." He then leaped into the sky.

Everyone else followed Wei Rong into space.

The collapse of the Hall of Insight caused many Lockbreakers to go crazy, as they were also afraid of being affected. As the masterminds behind the scenes, it would be an injustice if they were killed by the shockwaves.

Lu Yin and the others crashed into the mountain range along with the ruins of the Hall of Insight, and Gemini Ghost took the opportunity to launch a sneak attack. This time, he had learned his lesson and used four swords instead of two. Even if this person had a way to block one of the swords and redirect the other, it was impossible for him to block all four swords. After all, this person was just an Explorer, and the difference in power between them could not be overcome.

Lu Yin did not plan on leveling the gap. For some reason, the collapse of the Hall of Insight gave him the urge to unleash his power. He raised his hand, and a spear appeared in his hand. His spiritual force swept out in all directions, and many mercenaries and independent cultivators who had not been able to retreat in time were knocked unconscious by the sudden surge of spiritual force.

The Lockbreakers were slightly better off, as their spiritual force surpassed that of ordinary cultivators.

The mercenaries were the worst off. Their physical bodies were tough precisely to deal with an environment where star energy was scarce, and they had zero resistance to spiritual force attacks.

The moment the spear appeared, the mercenaries were finished.

Gemini Ghost was horrified, and he quickly retreated. His spiritual force resistance was very weak, and he might not even be as strong as the mercenaries'. This was because he was conjoined and shared a heart, which meant that his spiritual force resistance was split in half. Even a Hunter's spiritual force resistance was about the same as a Cruiser's.

With the spear in hand, Lu Yin's aura was awe-inspiring, and the spear's unbridled spiritual force pressure caused everyone to look at him in awe.

With a whoosh, the spear stabbed out, aiming directly at the Twin Ghosts.

The Gemini Ghosts were shocked. They had hidden in the void, so how had this person found them?

His essence, qi, and spirit swept through the void, and the twin ghosts retreated again.

Lu Yin discovered that this person was very afraid of spiritual force attacks. He thought about it for a moment before stabbing out with his spear again. This time, it wasn't aimed at the Gemini Ghosts, but rather at a Umbral Butterfly Tribe cultivator. The spear descended, and that cultivator didn't even have time to react before his body was pierced. A drop of blood and a cosmic ring from his hand disappeared into Lu Yin's hand. The next moment, Lu Yin changed his target, and the cultivators and mercenaries who were attacking the Hall of Insight all died tragically. Their blood and cosmic rings were all collected by Lu Yin.

He didn't know who had taken the research society's treasures or if they had transported them out. He didn't need to know. He could just kill them all.

Since the Gemini Ghosts didn't dare to approach Lu Yin, the others were even less of a match for him.

Wei Rong quickly learned that he had returned to an Endless Shipping spaceship in the starry sky. He looked at the hologram in front of him with an ugly expression.

Angie frowned and stared at Lu Yin, who was slaughtering his way through the screen. She hadn't seen him for a while, but he had become even more terrifying.

Back in the Astral Combat Academy, this person had been lawless despite having just broken through to the Limiteer realm. No, he had dared to provoke an Area Master when he was just a Melder. Later on, he had banned the Daynight clan and offended many of the Innerverse's great powers, including those from the Eight Great Flowzones. After leaving the Astral Combat Academy, he had become famous throughout the universe. During the Sea King's son-in-law selection in the Starfall Sea, this person had defeated Mu Rong and Ling Que, becoming the undisputed strongest Limiteer.

During the battle on Planet Pyrolyte, this person had almost single-handedly taken the largest pyrolyte mine. After the Innerverse and Outerverse had been separated, his strength had soared, and he had even killed Enlighters with his power level as a Limiteer, shocking the universe.

The central weave was affected by the separation of the Innerverse and Outerverse, so it was difficult to receive news from the eastern weaves. However, Angie had never given up on news of Lu Yin. After all, this person gave her the feeling that he was a genius of the universe.

Now, this person had become even more terrifying. He hadn't relied on any external items to block the Gemini Ghosts' attacks, and he had even managed to injure them. He was only an Explorer, so how had he done this?

If Wei Rong's intelligence was close to that of a demon, then Lu Yin's cultivation was close to that of a demon.

"We've achieved our goal. Everyone, retreat. Don't get entangled with Lu Yin," Wei Rong ordered. He could tell that Lu Yin was a troublesome person, and he had an endless stream of trump cards. Wei Rong dared to guarantee that this person definitely had even more trump cards that he had yet to reveal. He hadn't even worn the kind of external defensive universal armor that would allow him to participate in an Enlighter's battle.

Angie sighed. Even Wei Rong didn't want to provoke Lu Yin anymore. He really was an extreme person.

Ah Mu looked at Lu Yin on the screen and relaxed slightly. Seventh Bro was indeed Seventh Bro, and he was still as powerful as ever. Wei Rong could make it difficult for Saul to move, but he couldn't deal with Seventh Bro.

Following Wei Rong's orders, the Gemini Ghosts were the first to retreat, while the rest scattered and retreated.

There were too many cultivators attacking the Hall of Insight, and there were at least several thousand of them. Even if Lu Yin used his pike to sweep through them and had the help of the other Lockbreakers, it was impossible for him to kill all of them. He could only kill a portion of them.

When he saw the rune lines that represented the Gemini Ghosts leave, he did not chase after them, as it was useless.

The heavens constantly trembled, and star energy gathered abnormally. That was the battlefield between Saul and Lord Egret.

Fiend Li had been heavily injured by Saul and had only recovered after the Hall of Insight collapsed, but it was already too late. He looked at the distant Hall of Insight that had already disappeared with a sorrowful expression.

It had been many years since the Outerverse Lockbreaker Society had been established, and it had never suffered such a great humiliation. The Hall of Insight had been destroyed, and the treasury was now completely empty. This was definitely a huge blow to the remaining Lockbreakers.

"I've let Geoffrey down, and I've let down the Lockbreakers." Fiend Li looked up and sighed.

Below the altar, Mr. Jun had fled. Felynn clenched her fists in anger. The Wei family, the Umbral Butterfly Tribe, the Ghostly Sword Sect, Aegis, and Endless Borders had all betrayed her. What she wanted was to become president, not to disintegrate the Lockbreaker Society.

She clearly knew that these people had done it, but she could not expose them. No one could understand the grief and indignation that she felt.

No, there could not be any more losses. True Insight! As long as they had True Insight, the Lockbreaker Society's heart would not falter. As for the Hall of Insight, she could rebuild it after she became the society's president. The four trees had not been damaged, and the sourcebox array still existed. That was the most important thing.

Felynn began to search for Deng Pu, but he had disappeared a long time ago. When Saul and Fiend Li had first started fighting, Lu Yin had searched for Deng Pu, but he had not been able to find him.

Fiend Li leaped up and charged into outer space. The culprits who had destroyed the Hall of Insight were still in outer space, and he was unwilling to give up. The Hall of Insight had been destroyed, and there was nothing he could do about it. However, the treasures had to be recovered.

In outer space, aboard an Endless Borders spacecraft, news of Fiend Li's pursuit arrived. Wei Rong smiled. "It's just as I expected. That old fogey is courting death."

Fiend Li raised a hand and slapped the spacecraft. Suddenly, the void rippled, and Twin Ghosts appeared. With their sword techniques that could rival Enlighters, they left dozens of sword wounds on Fiend Li's body. In the end, they allowed Fiend Li to fall back to Sourcepeak Planet.

"These old fogeys always think that it's still their era, but they don't know that it's already changed." Wei Rong smiled.

Angie replied, "It changed the moment the Innerverse and Outerverse were separated."

"Wrong." Wei Rong looked at Angie seriously. "It changed the moment the Ten Arbiters were born. From that moment on, the universe became younger."

Angie did not understand.

Wei Rong turned back to look at the screen, and the image changed to reveal Lu Yin's figure once again. "The Ten Arbiters are products of the great changes of the era, and so is this person, and so am I. It's just that I don't know who will be at the forefront of this era. I'm working hard to open up a new era and lead the way, but it all depends on whether or not these people are willing to take the lead."

Angie listened to Wei Rong's muttering, but she could not understand a single word.

Behind her, Ah Mu fell into deep thought.

"Inform Lord Egret that there's no need to play with Saul anymore. Leave him to the Lockbreaker Society to deal with. Give them some trouble so that they won't be able to trace it back to us," Wei Rong ordered.

Back on Sourcepeak Planet, in the ruins of the Hall of Insight, Lu Yin stopped, exhausted. There were Lockbreakers all around him, and Aden came over to Lu Yin's side and whispered, "The enemies have all been dealt with."

Lu Yin nodded, but then he suddenly thought of something. "Did you take their cosmic rings?"

Aden was stunned. "Cosmic rings?"

"Of course. These people stole the Society's treasures from countless years ago, so there must be countless treasures in their cosmic rings. Of course, we took them," Lu Yin said matter-of-factly.

"Take them, and then what?

Return them to the Society? "Aden asked in a gruff voice.

Lu Yin rolled his eyes.

"Seventh Bro, this guy's been locked up for so long that he's become stupid. His brain isn't as bright as before," the monkey snickered.

Lu Yin did not say anything else to Aden, as it was not suitable for him to do such a thing. However, there were still so many cosmic rings, and so many pairs of eyes were watching. It was a pity that he could not brazenly take them.

The heavens trembled, and Lu Yin looked up. He saw that the boundless rune lines that represented the Enlighters were moving away, leaving only Saul's rune lines in space. This battle was about to end.

Lu Yin had never imagined that the Lockbreaker Society, a colossus of the universe, would actually be schemed against by a few weaves and corporations in the Outerverse and end up in such a state. Wei Rong's methods were simple, but they were sharp. Many people had become his chess pieces, including Fiend Li, Felynn, and the others. But what was his ultimate goal?

"With Wei Rong's temperament, he shouldn't have offended the Lockbreaker Society so much for the sake of those treasures. That's not his style." Wang Wen was also puzzled. He possessed a monstrous intelligence, but even he could not immediately see through Wei Rong's goal. The two of them were the same type of person, and they both had methods that allowed them to conceal everything deeply.

No matter what Wei Rong's goal was, Sourcepeak Planet was now in a complete mess.

Saul returned to Sourcepeak Planet and saw the ruins of the Hall of Insight, as well as countless furious gazes.
