After slaughtering nearly a hundred disciples of the Tai Mo Palace, Butcher was still not satisfied, and he chased after Qiong Xi 'er and the others.
Zhu San howled, "Why is this lunatic chasing us?"
Qiong Xi 'er's heart sank as bone spikes tore through the void behind her. She narrowly avoided them, but when she looked back, Butcher was getting closer and closer.
Even further ahead, Wei Rong stepped onto the Blackstone Continent that connected to the Damu Cliff Region. The reinforcements from the Outerverse were all heading in this direction, so Wei Rong could only escape in this direction. Perhaps he would run into some expert who could block that lunatic.
Butcher licked his lips and leaped up. He raised a palm and aimed it at Qiong Xi 'er and Zhu San. His palm split open, and white bone spikes shot out, enveloping the two like raindrops.
Zhu San despaired; it was over.
Qiong Xi 'er's pupils shrank, and she clenched her fists.
Even further away, Wei Rong's heart was beating wildly.
Suddenly, a gust of wind swept past him, and star energy transformed into a claw that blocked Qiong Xi 'er and Zhu San's heads. It counterattacked and shattered all of the bone spikes before swiping at Butcher.
Butcher raised his brows, and bones extended from his body, transforming into bone blades that sliced the claw into pieces. However, he was also pushed back by the enormous force.
He was shocked; there was an expert here.
There was a whoosh, and a figure appeared in front of Qiong Xi 'er and Zhu San. "What a coincidence."
Qiong Xi 'er looked at the figure's profile and was shocked. "Lu Yin?"
Zhu San was excited. "Brother Lu, is that you?
That's great, you're finally here. "
Even further away, Wei Rong heaved a sigh of relief. He had fled in the right direction. If he had fled in any other direction, then even if Lu Yin had arrived at this battlefield, he might not have been able to save them in time.
Lu Yin ignored Qiong Xi 'er and the others, and instead looked at Butcher. "So it's you."
Butcher's eyes narrowed, and he popped a pill into his mouth. The wounds on his body quickly healed. "You know me?"
"Butcher, an expert second only to Di Fa in the Bloodburn Realm."
Butcher was confused. "How do you know me?"
"We've met before, but you might not remember," Lu Yin said.
The Butcher looked at Lu Yin and then laughed. "I don't care who you are. Die!" He then pressed a hand against the ground, causing a bone spike to protrude and pierce towards Lu Yin. Lu Yin's right foot stomped on the ground, and a visible ripple of energy swept out, shattering the bone spike. His body then vanished and reappeared at the Butcher's side. He raised a hand, and his palm transformed into a claw. This Skybeast Claw was completely different from the previous one.
The Butcher was shocked. Bone spikes spread all over his body, making him look like a white hedgehog. He punched out, and the Skybeast Claw slammed into the Butcher's body, smashing him into the ground. However, the Skybeast Claw was pierced through by the bone spikes and disappeared.
Lu Yin pressed down on the ground with one hand. "Thirty Stacks, Hundredfold Shockwave Palm." There was a loud bang, and the Blackstone Continent was pulverized. An enormous force passed through the ground and shattered the ground. Butcher was just about to leap out when his organs were shaken by this sudden force. He spat out a mouthful of blood and had a bad feeling. This person was terrifyingly strong, so he hurriedly grabbed a handful of pills and tossed them into his mouth before leaping out.
He had just leaped out of the ground when Lu Yin appeared in front of him. He tapped out with a finger, causing the void to freeze. This was the Dream Finger.
The Dream Finger was aimed at the Butcher's forehead. Compared to Autumnfrost Qing, the Butcher's recovery ability was terrifyingly strong. His innate gift was absorption, and he could absorb medicinal effects thousands of times more. However, his attack power and defense were much lower.
Back then, the fatty had said that the Butcher was an expert second only to Di Fa, and that he was on par with Autumnfrost Qing. However, from Lu Yin's perspective, the Butcher was slightly weaker than Autumnfrost Qing.
Just as Lu Yin's finger was about to touch the Butcher's forehead, the imprint on the Butcher's back became even clearer, causing the Butcher to wake up from his dream. His bones transformed into a large hand that pushed Lu Yin away. Lu Yin's finger did not land on the Butcher's forehead, and it brushed past his shoulder. However, it did shatter the Butcher's right ear and leave half of his face a bloody mess.
In the distance, Qiongxi 'er and the rest were stunned. They knew that Lu Yin was very powerful, and he had even killed an Enlighter before, but that had been with external items. Now, he was actually fighting one on one with that madman, and he was even suppressing him. This was a little inconceivable, and it reminded them of the Jasper Forest Banquet, where this person had defeated Tyler Phineas in a single move.
The Butcher continuously retreated as he chewed on pills to recover from his injuries. He looked at Lu Yin in shock. "Who exactly are you?"
He could not help but be shocked, as the person in front of him was definitely not a Hunter or even a Cruiser. The Butcher could sense that this person's star energy had only circulated a few times, but he had still been able to suppress the Butcher. This was impossible, as the only person in the entire Bloodburn Realm who could do this was Di Fa. At the same level of power, only Di Fa could suppress the Butcher, but this person was actually comparable to a Realmling.
Lu Yin's tone was indifferent. "You're even worse than Autumnfrost Qing." He then raised his right hand, and star energy converged as he used Nine Suns Cauldron. "First Sun." A scorching sun rose from his palm and smashed towards the Butcher.
The Butcher's eyelids twitched, as this attack caused his scalp to go numb. All of the bones in his body expanded, and they eventually transformed into a white shell that wrapped around his entire body.
The First Sun smashed into the Butcher's white skeletal body, causing the void to ripple and then shatter. The Butcher's white skeletal body cracked open, and golden light scattered in all directions. His entire body was then blasted into the ground, causing the earth to tremble. Following that, an intense gale howled out from the ground, transforming into berserk star energy that swept out and shook the surroundings.
Qiong Xi'er and Zhu San were almost swept away by the star energy.
Even further away, many people were shocked, as they could sense a power comparable to a peak Hunter's. Another expert had arrived on this battlefield.
Lu Yin floated in the air and looked down at the ground. The Butcher's rune lines were already very weak. Autumnfrost Qing had been heavily injured by this attack and had been forced to rely on a power vessel to escape. This Butcher would not be able to withstand this attack either.
Beneath the ground, the Butcher was in an incomparably miserable state. His body seemed to have been torn apart, and large patches of his skin had been torn apart. Blood dyed the ground red, and his bones were scattered everywhere. Anyone else would have died from such injuries, but this was the Butcher who had fused with Che Lie's bloodline and had an innate gift of absorption. His mouth opened and closed as he swallowed all of the pills in his mouth.
The next moment, his body, which was close to being torn apart, suddenly reformed, and his injuries healed at a visible rate. Ancestor Mo Jiang's imprint also appeared indistinct and became clearer.
Up above, Lu Yin's expression changed. The Butcher's rune lines were actually recovering?
Lu Yin aimed a single palm downwards and pressed down. His palm transformed into a claw, and the Skybeast Claw slammed into the ground.
The Butcher grinned and took out a wooden sculpture that resembled a spider. This was a power vessel.
The wooden spider leapt up and opened its mouth to absorb the Skybeast Claw before disappearing. The next moment, it reappeared above Lu Yin's head with its abdomen bulging. It was obvious that it was about to explode, and the power of this explosion was no weaker than the Skybeast Claw's.
Lu Yin had not expected the Butcher to have such a power vessel. With a wave of his hand, the wooden spider disappeared and then reappeared beside the Butcher.
The Butcher was stunned. What was going on?
Was that a secret technique?
There was a boom as the ground exploded once more, and the Blackstone Continent was pierced through. The Butcher spat out a mouthful of blood, and this time, he was in an even more miserable state. His head had clearly cracked open.
Ever since Patriarch Mo Jiang had successfully imprinted and made a name for himself in the Bloodburn Realm, the Butcher had never been in such a miserable state. Although he loved to kill and was crazy in battle, he was not stupid. If he encountered an existence like Di Fa, he would stay far away. Even if it was Autumnfrost Qing or Mo Jiangxiao, who were direct descendants of World Imprinter families, he would not approach them. But today, he was truly unlucky.
Who would have thought that such a freak would appear in the Fifth Mainland who could suppress him with just the strength of an Explorer? Not only had his sneak attack failed, but he had even been counterattacked. The Butcher had definitely used a secret technique, and if the Butcher even had a secret technique, then this person was definitely one of the Fifth Mainland's top geniuses.
The Butcher weakly opened his bloodshot eyes, and he saw Lu Yin's cold expression. He grinned again and took out a sourcebox from his cosmic ring.
The moment the sourcebox appeared, a strange killing intent enveloped an area of thousands of kilometers, but it did not harm the Butcher at all.
In Lu Yin's eyes, the number of rune lines contained within the sourcebox's killing intent had missed the Butcher's position, which meant that he could still escape with the sourcebox.
"I admit defeat. Tell me, what's your name?" The Butcher weakly looked at Lu Yin, and he seemed to be in an abnormally miserable state.
Autumnfrost Qing and the Butcher. Top geniuses like them had all sorts of life-saving methods, which Lu Yin had expected. However, compared to Autumnfrost Qing, this Butcher seemed to be much more unlucky.
Lu Yin smiled strangely and stepped into the sourcebox's killing intent. He then slowly approached the Butcher.
The Butcher was stunned. "You, what's wrong with you?"
Lu Yin coughed. "I'm sorry, but I'm a Perceptive Intermediate Lockbreaker."
The Butcher spat out a mouthful of blood, as he was truly disgusted this time. Someone with such a powerful innate gift for battle was actually a Lockbreaker, and even worse, he was actually a Perceptive Intermediate Lockbreaker.
The Butcher's sourcebox was only a Perceptive Intermediate sourcebox, and it could withstand the attacks of a Hunter for a period of time. This period of time was just enough for the Butcher to escape into outer space and leave the battlefield.
But who would have thought that this person in front of him was actually a Lockbreaker? The sourcebox's killing intent was completely useless against him, and he easily avoided the sourcebox's killing intent. Even a typical Perceptive Intermediate Lockbreaker would not be able to do such a thing!
Lu Yin walked in front of the Butcher and looked down at him from above.
"Let me go! You won't be able to withstand our attack. As long as you let me go, I'll protect your life and recommend you to join Mo Jiang's bloodline. In the future …" Before the Butcher could finish speaking, Lu Yin stomped him to death.
Although this person had a high innate gift and was rather famous, he alone was not enough to make the decision for Mo Jiang's bloodline. Besides, even if the Outerverse was defeated in the end, that did not mean that the Sixth Mainland could slaughter the Outerverse without restraint.
Everyone had a bottom line, and the Sixth Mainland could at most plunder the Outerverse's resources and kill a bunch of people, but they could not kill too many people.
Besides, he still had Mister Mu, so he should have no problems keeping himself alive. At worst, he could escape to the Astral Wilderness, and he would not need a Cruiser's help.
This person had killed so many people, and he had to pay for it.
Unfortunately, Lu Yin did not have much money in his cosmic ring, and all of his life-saving items had been used up. He only had this sourcebox left.
As he thought about it, Lu Yin put the sourcebox away.
Lu Yin and Butcher's battle did not last long, but the spectators were all stunned.
Butcher could be considered the strongest powerhouse in the area, and he had even killed a Hunter from Taimo Palace. But now, he had died at Lu Yin's hands.
Wei Rong stared at Lu Yin in shock, as he suddenly felt that he had overlooked a problem. In this universe, the strong were respected, and sometimes, an absolute powerhouse could change the entire situation.
