Felynn stared at the ground in shock, as no one had expected such a variable to appear in this Lockbreaker Competition. She had thought that everything was under her control, but things had turned out this way. If this continued, then not only would the Hall of Insight be destroyed, but even Sourcepeak Planet would be finished.
Xi Qi leaped up, but she was swept up by the shockwaves from the ground and flung away. Above her head, the fish was shouting, but no one knew what it was shouting. She could vaguely hear something about a Corpse King transforming into a monster.
Ku Wei stared at the ground with a solemn expression. Even he could not intervene in such a battle, as this was equivalent to an Enlighter's battle. If they were fighting on a planet, then the planet was doomed.
Fiend Li's eyes widened, and he was supported by a few Lockbreakers as he floated in the air. "Sourcepeak Planet cannot be destroyed! Absolutely not!"
Underground, Lu Yin took a punch to the chest. Although his universal armor had blocked it, his chest still felt heavy. The Corpse King's physical body was too strong, and Lu Yin was sent flying a hundred meters away. At this moment, Aden appeared with his thunder shield, blocking Lu Yin's path as he faced the Corpse King head-on.
The Corpse King punched out with both fists, and with a bang, the thunder shield shattered. Aden's nine-lined battle force became unstable, and his body was sent flying as well as he spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Seventh Bro, stop fighting and leave! You're definitely not his match!" the monkey shouted.
The Corpse King relied on physical strength and not star energy attacks, so Lu Yin's Yu Secret Art was practically useless against it. He could only defend and counterattack. As he thought about it, Lu Yin rushed forward again and pressed down with a palm. "Thirty Stacks, Hundredfold Shockwave Palm." The Corpse King raised its head, and its body blurred until it disappeared. Lu Yin's pupils shrank, and his stars revolved as he changed directions and slapped out with a single palm. The Corpse King appeared in the void and punched out.
With a bang, a horizontal shockwave tore through the ground and then exploded into the sky. Layers of shockwaves rippled through the ground, and many Lockbreakers who were high up in the sky were caught in the shockwaves and were blown away without being able to resist.
Lu Yin was forced back again, and the Corpse King's green eyes closed in on him as it reached out to grab him. Lu Yin dodged with the Secret Sidestep and quickly retreated.
The Corpse King did not chase after him, and instead, it turned around and punched the door. This time, the door could not withstand the Corpse King's attack and was shattered.
Lu Yin's eyes lit up, and he rushed in at the same time.
The room was not very large, and there was a strangely shaped sourcebox at the center of the room. When the Corpse King charged in, distorted ripples appeared in the void and wrapped around him. This was the sourcebox's danger zone. Lu Yin was a step too slow, and he hurriedly came to a stop. He scanned his surroundings, and his gaze finally landed on a corner. There were two boxes, one large and one small, and the Corpse King was doing his best to break free from the ripples and walk towards the boxes.
Lu Yin held onto the Giant Emperor's third eye and stared intently at the sourcebox's murderous aura. He used the Secret Sidestep technique to constantly flicker as he rapidly approached the box. He was even faster than the Corpse King.
The Corpse King growled, and under Lu Yin's astonished gaze, its right arm extended and grabbed the larger box. This was an innate gift. Lu Yin grew anxious, and just as the Corpse King was about to grab another box, he stabbed out with his pike. Although the pike's spiritual force attack was useless against the Corpse King, its sharpness was unparalleled. With the addition of Lu Yin's strength, it nailed the Corpse King's extended arm to the wall. Lu Yin took advantage of this opportunity to grab the smaller box and put it away.
The Corpse King's green eyes stared at Lu Yin as it retracted its arm and pulled out a pike to stab at Lu Yin. Lu Yin dodged the attack and rushed out of the room.
The Corpse King struggled to rush out of the room as well.
Lu Yin no longer planned on tangling with the Corpse King, as this monster was not something that he could defeat. Even if he had a Money Bomb that could instantly kill an Enlighter, it would be useless. The Corpse King's physical strength far surpassed that of a normal Enlighter's, and the Money Bomb might not be able to instantly kill it.
Lu Yin rushed out to the surface and saw that his surroundings had greatly changed. The ground had collapsed, and the sky was filled with smoke. In the distance, red lava was constantly spewing out, filling the air with a pungent smell.
When Fiend Li and the rest saw Lu Yin rush out to the surface, they hurriedly asked, "How is it?"
At that moment, the Corpse King rushed out from the surface and stared at Lu Yin with its green eyes before vanishing.
The stars around Lu Yin's body revolved as he used the Secret Sidestep technique to dodge the Corpse King's attack. The Corpse King's attack had missed, and it waved its hand to shoot a gust of wind towards Fiend Li and the rest. From underground, Aden also rushed out and used his nine lined battle force to attack the Corpse King, but he was repelled by a single punch.
Lu Yin saw that the Corpse King was still staring at him, and he immediately shouted, "The secret room has been opened, and the things inside have been stolen by him!"
Fiend Li's face went pale. "Everyone, listen up! We cannot let this person escape!"
Even so, there was no one on Sourcepeak Planet who could fight against the Corpse King. At most, Lu Yin would be able to remain undefeated.
The Corpse King chased after Lu Yin, determined to snatch the other box. Lu Yin looked around and saw Ku Wei, so he rushed over without hesitation.
Ku Wei's mouth fell open. "F * ck!"
Lu Yin smiled at Ku Wei. "I'll leave it to you."
Ku Wei was stunned, and then he stood in place without moving. The Corpse King actually ignored him and continued to chase after Lu Yin.
Lu Yin was astonished. How was this possible?
It seemed that the Corpse King's intelligence was limited, and it only knew how to act and was not interested in anything else.
"Seventh Bro, go back and look for Ku Wei. He's definitely from the Seven Courts' Ku family, and he's also one of the Three Dark Hands. I don't believe that he can't deal with the Corpse King!" the monkey shouted.
Even if the monkey hadn't said anything, Lu Yin had already planned to do so. Fiend Li was injured and on the verge of death, Felynn was not very strong, and the rest of the Lockbreakers were at most Hunters. They would not be able to fight back against the Corpse King. Only Ku Wei was different, and it had nothing to do with his battle prowess. Lu Yin felt that Ku Wei was reliable because of his status.
When Ku Wei saw that Lu Yin had returned, he broke into a run and shouted, "Bro, Brother Wei didn't offend you! Why are you chasing after me?"
Lu Yin replied, "Bro, help me block it for a while."
"Are you crazy?" Ku Wei wanted to cry, but no tears came out.
Behind him, the Corpse King suddenly sped up and tore through the void to appear in front of Lu Yin. It punched out, but Lu Yin dodged with the Secret Sidestep and passed by the Corpse King once again. The Corpse King punched back, and the wind from the punch distorted space as it transformed into a majestic shockwave that swept forward. Lu Yin was able to block it, but Ku Wei was swept away by the shockwave and smashed into the ground.
Ku Wei was an Explorer, and it was already quite impressive that he could display the strength of a Hunter at most. Even so, he could not fight back against the Corpse King.
Lu Yin felt helpless, as it seemed that this fellow would not be of much use.
This person's strength was similar to Lu Yin's, and he had the strength to challenge a Hunter who was a Realmbreaker. However, Lu Yin had relied on his universal armor to fight against the Corpse King, and this person could not block the Corpse King without it.
Lu Yin used the Secret Sidestep to continuously dodge the Corpse King's attacks. With his Sirius Art and Secret Sidestep, he was confident that the Corpse King would not be able to hit him. After some time, the Corpse King would definitely leave, and the Hall of Honor would not leave it be.
In the distance, Fiend Li pushed aside the Lockbreakers who were supporting him and dragged his heavily injured body towards the top of the ruins of the Hall of Insight. That area was enveloped by the killing intent of the four giant sourceboxes. He floated high in the sky and looked at Sourcepeak Planet with a complicated expression. "I never thought that this would be the last thing I see in my life. Geoffrey's worries have come true. Since that's the case, I'll keep my promise and not let that item fall into anyone else's hands." He then raised his gadget and sent out a message. He then looked towards the battlefield where Lu Yin and the Corpse King were chasing each other and said something.
Lu Yin was currently dodging the Corpse King's attacks when his ears twitched. He looked in Fiend Li's direction in astonishment, and then he charged over without hesitation.
The Corpse King followed closely behind.
Lu Yin charged into the area enveloped by the four giant trees and then continued to head east.
The Corpse King chased after Lu Yin and also charged into the area enveloped by the four giant trees. The moment Lu Yin left the area, Fiend Li's eyes widened, and the star energy in the area changed. The four giant trees suddenly withered to reveal sourceboxes of different sizes and shapes. The void froze as the four sourceboxes emitted a faint glow. Then, for some unknown reason, the area around them suddenly distorted, and all the star energy within vanished. The Corpse King and Fiend Li himself also vanished.
Lu Yin was stunned by this scene. What was this?
All the star energy within the area enveloped by the four giant trees had completely vanished. The Corpse King, Fiend Li, and even everything on the ground that contained star energy had all vanished. There was no longer any star energy left in that area.
Was this a sourcebox array?
Only Boundless Advanced Lockbreakers could comprehend it, and it was a supreme technique for Lockbreakers.
That was a Corpse King with green eyes at the Second Transformation, and it had disappeared just like that. It was too terrifying.
"Rumor has it that in ancient times, some powerful Lockbreakers could use sourcebox arrays to kill super powerhouses. Seems like it's true," the monkey sighed.
Lu Yin's eyes flickered as he thought about True Insight. The thirty-six pages of True Insight contained a sourcebox array. If a sourcebox array could be so powerful, then True Insight would be comparable to a secret technique. It was no wonder why Saul wanted to obtain True Insight so much.
Unfortunately, Fiend Li was only a five star Perceptive Intermediate Lockbreaker and could not comprehend a sourcebox array. Although Lu Yin did not know how Fiend Li had activated this sourcebox array, he had paid the price with his life.
If President Geoffrey had been here, then what would have happened?
Lu Yin did not dare to imagine how powerful Geoffrey was, and whether or not he had comprehended a sourcebox array. If he had, then he would have been able to deal with Saul, Lord Egret, and the Corpse King all by himself!
A wooden box fell from the sky. This was the item that the Corpse King had obtained from Geoffrey's secret room. Lu Yin wanted to take it away, but he did not dare to enter that space.
Felynn flew over from the distance and entered the space. She took the box and heaved a sigh of relief. She then looked at Lu Yin with a complicated expression.
Lu Yin met Felynn's gaze. "That senior Lockbreaker from before was willing to die so that it wouldn't fall into the hands of others, right?"
Felynn placed the box into her cosmic ring without replying.
Lu Yin looked around. "Sourcepeak Planet is finished. The Hall of Insight, the Vice President, and the Honorary Vice President are all finished. No one can stop you from becoming the president now."
Felynn's body trembled, and she bitterly replied, "What's the point of becoming the president now?"
"I'll support you," Lu Yin said.
Felynn fell silent.
Around them, many Lockbreakers were in a sorry state. They were either standing on the ground or floating in the air. It was as if they had all lost their souls.
Too many things had happened on this day, so much that they could not accept it all.
