Lu Yin approached the white sun, and the closer he got, the greater the terror he felt. The bell that White Knight had used to protect him was being disintegrated, and the Literary Prison followed suit. In the distance, Wen Sansi and Nightking Zhenwu looked up at the sky.
Lu Yin was only a step away from the white sun, but the Literary Prison had already been completely disintegrated. At the last moment, he waved his right hand and activated the Yu Secret Art. The white sun suddenly vanished for a moment before exploding in the direction of Shang Rong and the others.
Lu Yin's secret technique shocked everyone.
Shang Rong's expression changed. "Secret technique!"
The Realmling and Toolwielder immediately retreated.
Even further away, the man who had pierced through the Literary Prison also fled in another direction.
As the white sun exploded at the bottom of the sea, a violent shockwave swept through the seabed along with a power that could disintegrate everything. The entire sea was being disintegrated, and the seabed continued to disappear.
Everyone fled in all directions.
Lu Yin used the Enneadic Wings to escape at top speed, and his speed was not any slower than the others.
Not long after, the white sun's explosion ended, and an enormous crater appeared at the bottom of the sea.
Lu Yin did not stop at all, and he continued charging towards the surface. He did not want to participate in such a battle, so he wanted to escape whenever he could.
At this moment, sword qi tore through the void from the Realmling wielding the stone sword. He was the closest to Lu Yin, and when he saw that Lu Yin was about to escape, he slashed out with his sword.
Lu Yin was unable to react in time, and he could only use his spear to block. There was a crack, and the spear shattered. The sword qi slashed at the Enneadic Wings' protective barrier, causing it to shatter and leaving a large gash on Lu Yin's body.
Lu Yin had been injured by the sword qi, and he had also been struck by the man who had pierced through the Literary Prison. He could not endure it any longer, and he coughed up another mouthful of blood. He did not even have the strength to escape. At this moment, someone grabbed his arm. It was White Knight. She used her spear to shatter the incoming sword qi and looked at Lu Yin. "You're not dead, are you?"
Lu Yin was speechless. "Let me go, I want to leave."
White Knight frowned. "You can't escape. Follow me."
Lu Yin opened his mouth to speak, but a green light suddenly shot up from the bottom of the sea. Everyone looked over, and they saw a palm-sized jade stone floating quietly above the seabed.
White Knight's eyes blazed. "A Progenitor's inheritance!" She pulled Lu Yin's hand and rushed over.
The others acted as well, as they had all fought for this moment.
Lu Yin was being dragged away by White Knight. "I won't take it. Let me go."
White Knight said in a low voice, "We all have our own opponents, so it's up to you whether or not you can snatch it. Use your secret technique."
Lu Yin really wanted to scold her. She hadn't left him behind to save him, but to use him as a scapegoat to snatch that Progenitor's inheritance.
Everyone rushed towards the jade in the sky. White Knight was the furthest away, and she threw Lu Yin towards it without a second thought. Although Lu Yin's physical strength was strong, he was unable to resist White Knight in his injured state, and he was smashed towards the jade by a huge force. At the same time, on the opposite side of the jade, Wen Sansi flicked his finger lightly, and a strong wind hit the jade and pushed it towards Lu Yin.
At this moment, Lu Yin was getting closer and closer to the jade stone. Everyone else had their own opponents, and Wen Sansi was fighting two Realmlings by himself.
Everyone watched as the jade fell into Lu Yin's hand.
The moment he got hold of the jade stone, a cool and refreshing feeling entered his body through his palm. It was rapidly healing his injuries. He was overjoyed and held the jade stone tightly.
"Give it to me." Nightking Zhenwu's voice rang out as he stared at Lu Yin with a dignified expression.
Lu Yin scanned his surroundings and saw that everyone was quickly approaching him. He could not stay here for too long, especially since the stone sword Realmling had unleashed several streaks of sword qi that Lu Yin could not block. He waved his hand and tossed the jade stone towards White Knight before fleeing towards a place where there was no one else around.
Everyone ignored him and continued to stare at the jade stone.
Soon, an endless wave of attacks swept across the area, emitting an aura that caused one's scalp to turn numb.
Lu Yin looked back and then hurriedly left. This was not a place where he could stay. So what if it was a Progenitor's inheritance? Without his life, any inheritance would be useless.
There was a thump as Lu Yin charged out of the seabed. He heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly rushed further away.
However, his luck seemed to be very bad, as the moment he charged out of the seabed, the jade stone was also flung out of the seabed by an enormous force, and it blossomed with a green light as it flew into the sky.
Lu Yin was speechless. Numerous figures charged out from the seabed, and the chaotic battle extended to the surface.
Lu Yin did not know who had launched the attack, but the jade stone had been sent flying in his direction.
Lu Yin really wanted to curse out loud. He was someone who had always been hiding, so why did he have to run into these things everywhere he went?
Sword qi! Another wave of sword qi attacked him, and the image of a three-inch-tall elder appeared behind the Realmling wielding the stone sword. A vast pressure spread out as the stone sword circled around the elder's body, releasing countless strands of sword qi that swept out in all directions.
White Knight and the others were all forced to retreat.
The Realmling grabbed at the jade stone, and just as he was about to grab it, black and white intertwined in the distance.
Lu Yin's scalp turned numb. Not good, it was a battle technique from the Daynight clan. He subconsciously rushed towards the seabed in an attempt to avoid the attack. He was in the same direction as the jade stone and the Realmling with the stone sword. In other words, he was also within Nightking Zhenwu's attack range.
However, he was still a step too slow. Lu Yin did not know what battle technique Nightking Zhenwu had used, but his brain had been struck. This was fine, as he was not afraid of spiritual force attacks, but his body felt as if it had been torn apart. Fresh blood spilled out in front of his eyes, and he unconsciously spat out a mouthful of blood. The intense pressure made it difficult for him to breathe, and the Enneadic Wings' protective shield shattered. The soil formed from Fatesand stuck close to his chest, but it was still unable to withstand the pressure, and even the void cracked. Fortunately, the Literary Prison appeared in front of him and helped him block the attack.
The Realmling wielding the stone sword was not in a good state either. Nightking Zhenwu's attack was extremely terrifying, and he had not even used it when he was at the bottom of the sea. The Realmling's mouth was bleeding, and his skin was being torn apart. He was only a step away from the jade stone, but he could no longer move.
Nightking Zhenwu's figure flickered as he charged towards the jade stone.
The Realmling wielding the stone sword looked up with a cold gaze. An indescribable fluctuation appeared on the surface of his body, and then, his injuries instantly healed. He then grabbed the jade stone.
No one was able to react to this scene, including Shang Rong and the other Realmlings.
"It's a secret technique! He's learned the secret resurrection technique passed down by the Secret Progenitor!" Toolwielder shouted.
The Realmling turned around, and countless strands of sword qi swept out, enveloping everyone within. The sky was torn apart by the countless strands of sword qi.
The Realmling turned around to leave after this attack, but one person pierced through the strands of sword qi and rapidly approached the Realmling.
The Realmling's gaze was cold. "Di Fa."
"Sword in the Stone, I won't stop you. Why don't you study it together with me?" Di Fa asked.
The Realmling snorted, but before he could say anything, a figure appeared directly below him from the bottom of the sea. This figure was accompanied by a mighty bell chime. It was White Knight, as her Soulsplitting battle technique had been restored. There was one on the surface of the sea, and another hidden at the bottom of the sea.
White Knight's appearance was something that neither the Sword in the Stone nor Di Fa had expected. She stabbed her spear at the Sword in the Stone while Di Fa was trapped by the Literary Prison.
The Sword in the Stone turned his stone sword around and clashed with the spear, causing the void to split horizontally and extend far into the distance. White Knight reached out to grab the jade, but the Sword in the Stone raised his arm to block. Palm and arm collided, and White Knight had clearly learned close combat. Her palm nimbly bypassed the Sword in the Stone's defenses and grabbed the jade. "Let go!"
The Sword in the Stone's eyes went wide, and an even more boundless amount of star energy clashed with White Knight's.
In the distance, Lu Yin silently escaped. Nightking Zhenwu's attack had worsened his injuries, and he would remember this attack.
Eh?
What's in front of me?
Lu Yin focused his gaze, and his expression changed. Not good! There was another powerhouse whose aura was not any weaker than White Knight's. It was either a Realmling or one of the Ten Arbiters. There was no time to distinguish between friend and foe, so Lu Yin could only turn around and flee.
White Knight was still in a deadlock with the Sword in the Stone, while Wen Sansi had trapped Di Fa and was fighting against Shang Rong. Nightking Zhenwu was still tangled up with Toolwielder.
Lu Yin shouted, "Another one has arrived!"
Everyone looked over.
A woman had appeared in the distance behind Lu Yin. Her eyes were cold, and she was staring at the jade in the Sword in the Stone's hand, which was glowing green.
"Maiden Xin?" The Sword in the Stone was astonished.
White Knight's eyes narrowed, as this was another Realmling. She looked at Lu Yin and secretly transmitted, "Use a secret technique to steal the inheritance. Remember, this belongs to our Fifth Mainland, and it cannot be stolen by someone from the Sixth Mainland." She then grabbed the Sword in the Stone and rushed towards Lu Yin.
Lu Yin gritted his teeth and waved his hand to activate the Yu Secret Art. He directly transferred the jade from the Sword in the Stone's hand and reappeared in the void. He then grabbed it, and the jade landed in his hand for the second time.
At this moment, he could not help but sigh. The Yu Secret Art was truly an expert at stealing things.
The Sword in the Stone glared at Lu Yin. This person was weak, and he could not even withstand a single strike from the Sword in the Stone's hand. However, this person had repeatedly gotten in the way, and the Sword in the Stone's hand could not withstand his secret technique.
"Leave it to me." Nightking Zhenwu's voice approached, and the Sword in the Stone's hand shook off Toolwielder as he grabbed at Lu Yin. Black and white intertwined in his hand. This was an attack, and the Sword in the Stone's hand did not care if Lu Yin lived or died. Or rather, he hoped that Lu Yin would die, as he had recognized Lu Yin.
A murderous intent flashed through Lu Yin's eyes, and he saw that everyone was staring at him. It was not just Nightking Zhenwu, but even the woman who was rushing over from the distance had raised her hand, which filled Lu Yin with a sense of crisis.
Everyone wanted to obtain the jade, and no one cared if Lu Yin lived or died. He was like an ant that had accidentally stumbled into a storm, and from the moment he had appeared, he had not even had a chance to breathe.
The jade could not fall into the hands of the Sixth Mainland's people, but it could not fall into the hands of Nightking Zhenwu either. Lu Yin was not a selfless person, and he would not sacrifice himself for the Fifth Mainland. Since no one cared if he lived or died, then what did he need to care about?
Crack!
Time seemed to stop, and everyone's expressions changed as they stared at Lu Yin's hand. The jade had cracked open.
Lu Yin immediately crushed the jade, and while everyone was still in a daze, he took out the Void Thunderbeast's flesh from his chest pocket. This was his greatest trump card for escaping, and he had obtained it from Wendy Yushan before he had come to the Daosource Sect's ruins to save his own life. He would not use it unless he had no other choice. The Daosource Sect's ruins were a shattered space, and who knew if he would accidentally stumble into a death trap? However, he had no other choice at this moment, and he could only use this thing to escape.
He only had one chance, and he had to take advantage of the moment when everyone was attacking to escape. Otherwise, he would not have another chance.
Lightning flashed, and the sound startled everyone back to their senses. The void where Lu Yin was standing distorted, and his entire body disappeared. All that was left behind were the green dots of light that floated in the air, which were the Progenitor's inheritance.
