Although Xin Nü ultimately could not resist Zhi Yi’s Vitality Qi and was even less able to injure her, she still managed to hold back this member of the Daosource Three Skies for a period of time.
The Daosource Three Skies were all incredibly arrogant, which was why Zhi Yi did not feel a need to explain anything to Xin Nü. On the other side, Xin Nü felt a natural urge to help Lu Yin, so she required no explanation either. Thus, regardless of what they said to each other, her objective had already been achieved.
High above, in the sky of the Whitecliff Region, Zhi Yi was continuously delayed by Xin Nü, which left countless cultivators from the Sixth Mainland stunned. There was just no understanding some people, as there were individuals who would even attack their own allies.
Lu Yin was astonished to see that Xin Nü had arrived and was brazenly helping him. Would she be alright? He really was not that close to her!
“That chick is awesome! She even dares to stand up to one of the Daosource Three Skies, and she’s even from the Sixth Mainland! Bro, she’s mine!” Gu Xiao’er told Lu Yin in a serious voice.
Lu Yin was rendered speechless; why did he keep running into such strange men?
“Seventh Bro, could it be that this woman has taken a liking to you?” the Ghost Monkey asked. He had not spoken to Lu Yin in quite some time, and Lu Yin had almost forgotten about the monkey. The moment the monkey spoke, Lu Yin suddenly realized that the monkey seemed to have been speaking less and less recently, which was rather unusual.
“Monkey, are you okay?” Lu Yin asked.
The Ghost Monkey instantly became suspicious. “What’s the matter?”
“Nothing,” Lu Yin casually replied. This stupid monkey definitely had some issues.
Zhi Yi was delayed by Xin Nü, but Little Arrow Saint was not. The man had a driven and serious nature, and he did not speak any nonsense as he continued to attack. He was dead set on dealing with Gu Xiao’er and capturing Lu Yin alive all at the same time. As such, he immediately attacked, causing arrows to fill the sky and rain down upon Lu Yin and Gu Xiao’er.
Gu Xiao’er quickly maneuvered his white smoke to wrap around himself, which acted like a shield that blocked off the arrow barrage. However, his smoke had been diminished by Zhi Yi’s Vitality Qi, and Gu Xiao’er was unable to gather it as quickly this time since the amount that he could control had diminished. Thus, he was blasted down towards the sea by the arrows.
Star energy converged above Lu Yin’s right hand, and the First Sun shot out soon thereafter. A fiery ball of flame rumbled as it crashed into the arrows, but the sun was only able to stop one arrow while Little Arrow Saint had fired off dozens at the same time. Lu Yin could do nothing but dodge the remaining attacks.
This was how Little Arrow Saint usually attacked; he staggered his attacks to compensate for the cosmic phenomenon suppressing his attacks’ power level. Although this was a rather crude method, it was still very effective.
Lu Yin did not want to passively take a beating, so as he dodged the arrows, he also moved closer to Little Arrow Saint.
Little Arrow Saint was not stupid, and he easily saw through Lu Yin’s intentions. However, the Realmling did not stop his opponent from approaching. When Lu Yin got close enough to slap out with a palm, Little Arrow Saint grabbed his bow, reinforced it with nine lined battle force, and then savagely smashed it at Lu Yin. Little Arrow Saint was using his bow itself as a weapon.
The power boost from his nine lined battle force was quite impressive, as its power greatly surpassed that of eight lined battle force. When the two youths’ attacks came into contact, Lu Yin’s eight lined battle force crumbled almost instantly, but Lu Yin’s One Hundred Stacks in addition to his ridiculous physique allowed him to make up for the deficiency of his inferior battle force, and both youths were forced to retreat. Little Arrow Saint was astonished by Lu Yin’s monstrous physical strength, and the Realmling grabbed a firmer hold of his long bow to fire off more arrows.
Little Arrow Saint was the epitome of a ruthless and reticent person. He fired off another volley of arrows. Even if Lu Yin managed to dodge this attack, it would land on the sea below, affecting everyone underneath them. This attack did not distinguish between targets, and the Fifth Mainland cultivators were not the only ones who would be struck—Sixth Mainland cultivators would as well.
Little Arrow Saint continued to indifferently loose more arrows.
Below them, two figures simultaneously dashed over the surface of the sea as they directed death-stares at Little Arrow Saint. Meanwhile, Lu Yin pushed out with a palm, forcefully pushing these arrows aside as two figures streaked past him. One of the figures was easily eliminated by Little Arrow Saint and his arrows, but the other was frighteningly powerful. This person was able to force the arrows aside like Lu Yin, and the star energy in this man’s hand formed a strange weapon that then lashed out.
Little Arrow Saint’s bow collided with this strange weapon, and its bowstring distorted. A formless arrow shot out, but it was also pushed aside by the arrival of this new weapon.
The newcomer then retreated a hundred meters to Lu Yin’s side, where he panted slightly. “As expected of a Realmling.”
Lu Yin looked over at this new person. Strangely enough, he gave Lu Yin a slightly familiar feeling, but Lu Yin was also completely certain that he had never seen this person before.
This person glanced over at Lu Yin, and surprise flashed through his eyes. He then looked back at Little Arrow Saint once again.
Suddenly, Little Arrow Saint looked up. Giant meteorites crashed down from the sky one after the other, and they seemed to follow a pattern similar to Little Arrow Saint’s staggered arrow barrage. Unfortunately, from what Lu Yin could see, the meteorites’ rune lines could not compare with Little Arrow Saint’s attacks’, as these meteorites were not even close to approaching the current power level limit of 200,000. This showed that the person who had launched these meteorites was not someone whose strength had reached the level of a Realmling’s.
Still, this meteor shower was enough to distract Little Arrow Saint.
Lu Yin looked into the sky, above the sea, where the meteorites’ rune lines originated. They came from a man, and this was his method of attacking. Somewhere, Lu Yin felt like he had heard of something like this before.
As the meteorites fell down, he suddenly remembered. That’s right—Starfall. This was Ye Xingchen, one of the four unequalled Limiteers.
Lu Yin had already met Mu Rong and Ling Que, but he never met with Ye Xingchen until now. Despite that, he was fairly certain that this person was Ye Xingchen.
For someone to unleash the strength of a Hunter while still only in the Explorer realm showed that they were qualified to receive the title of “General.” Thus, this youth was almost definitely Ye Xingchen.
But in that case, then who was the young man standing next to Lu Yin? He was also almost able to match up to a Realmling, though he was still a little lacking. Despite that, his strength was enough to have received the title of “King.”
The falling meteorites were shattered by Little Arrow Saint’s arrows. Ye Xingchen’s attack had only been able to slightly distract the Realmling, not threatening the Realmling in the slightest.
While Lu Yin and the others joined forces to deal with Little Arrow Saint, Zhi Yi was still tangling with Xin Nü. At this time, a man tore through the void from the distance and stepped onto the Whitecliff Region battlefield. He then took another step, which brought him directing to the Champions’ Stage, where he faced Bu Kong.
Two of the Ten Arbiters were participating in this battle for the Whitecliff Region, and also with them were an Honored Chosen, the Cosmic Sect’s true first disciple, and many other experts. However, all of these experts were busy dealing with the Sixth Mainland’s Realmlings and other such experts in their own battles. This was because nobody had the confidence to try to seize the Champions’ Stage from Bu Kong’s hands. The Daosource Three Skies stood above even the Realmlings while the Ten Arbiters and Realmlings were considered to be on the same level of strength. It would be extremely difficult to take anything away from Bu Kong, not to mention when Zhi Yi was there as well.
Still, there were moments when someone would be unable to endure the provocation and would move to the Champions’ Stage to challenge Bu Kong. All such challengers had died.
Even War King Xing Kai had challenged Bu Kong, but he had similarly failed.

At this moment, the man had stepped foot onto the Champions’ Stage, grabbing everyone’s attention.
Bu Kong turned around to look at the man, and his expression grew solemn. “Interesting. Give me your name.”
The man clasped his hands behind his back. He looked even more arrogant than Bu Kong, and he acted as if he was someone who naturally stood above all others. “Tai Yishen.” 1
Bu Kong frowned. “What arrogance.”
Everyone in the distance who saw the man, such as Honored Chosen Shu Jing, the Cosmic Sect’s true first disciple Qiu Shi, as well as War King Xing Kai and Serati Phoenix, had strange expressions. The truth was that this man’s name was indeed Tai Yishen, and this was not a self-given name either. That was his true, birth name as this man was from the Neoverse’s Gods’ Origin.
To the people of Gods’ Origin, it did not matter if it was the Neoverse, the Cosmic Sea, or the Innerverse—they did not have much interaction with anyone. This group seemed quite insane, as they proclaimed themselves to be gods while viewing all others as inferior creatures. But beyond a shadow of a doubt, they were all terrifyingly strong, and their methods were tricky and bizarre, which made them very difficult to deal with.
Even the Hall of Honor did not want to mess with this group.
Although this group was obscenely arrogant, their strength was the real deal, and Tai Yishen’s strength was enough to rival the Ten Arbiters and Realmlings’.
Besides this battlefield, once the Neoverse began to compete for places in the Astral Tower, Tai Yishen would definitely be a participant.
“Leave the Champions’ Stage and get out of the Cosmic Sea. Then, I can spare your life,” Tai Yishen did not speak loudly, but his tone was so arrogant that even Bu Kong could not endure it.
Bu Kong was normally very condescending when he spoke to anyone, so encountering someone like Tai Yishen, who was even more arrogant than him, made the Daosource Three Skies member grow disgruntled. “Something’s wrong with your brain.”
Quite a few people from the Neoverse heard Bu Kong’s response, and although they were bitter enemies, they felt that the man’s words were accurate. That bunch from Gods’ Origin all had a few screws loose. Otherwise, they would never have proclaimed themselves as gods.
Tai Yishen’s lips curled upwards. “Typical mortals.”
His right hand then slowly closed as a small crystal bottle appeared in it. He aimed the bottle’s opening at Bu Kong, and a formless attack erupted from the bottle that tore through the void and shot towards Bu Kong.
Bu Kong was surprised, as were the countless others who witnessed this attack. What the heck was that?
Off in the distance, Qiu Shi’s eyes trembled, as this was the battle style of those from Gods’ Origin. That vial had not been retrieved from some cosmic ring. Rather, it had actually been created. Her sect had studied Gods’ Origin for many years, but they only knew that the madmen were connected to a strange, ancient civilization with the exact details still unknown.
If someone like Qiu Shi was amazed despite her origins in the Neoverse, then there was no need to mention Bu Kong.
Even though Tai Yishen’s attack was not overly powerful, this sort of fighting style was just too strange, and Bu Kong had trouble believing what he had just seen. Was creation from nothing really a domain that could be encroached upon?
Lu Yin watched everything from even further away. Sure enough, those who cultivated the techniques derived from Rune Technology could create something from nothing. Still, just how exactly had that person done it?
Tai Yishen’s attack drew a great deal of attention from everyone on the battlefield, and countless people stared at him in awe. Creation was a mighty power; could this man really be a god?
“That should be some sort of a secret technique,” Bu Kong barked before raising a hand. The attack that Ti Yishen had released from the vial was instantly dissolved, and Bu Kong’s figure flashed as he moved closer to Tai Yishen to attack. “Time Reversal Technique.”
Tai Yishen’s pupils shrank, and he felt an extreme crisis approach him. Although he had a massive ego, he was not an idiot, and he did not dare to act carelessly when fighting against one of the Daosource Three Skies. He would not let Bu Kong’s strike easily land, and Tai Yishen hurried evaded as the void where he had just been standing trembled, though there was no further reaction.
Tai Yishen was puzzled, but Bu Kong chased after him once again with his palm still pressed forward.
“Crazy Tai, don’t let that guy touch you! He can beat you back to your mother’s womb,” War King Xing Kai hollered from a distance, and his voice spread through the entire Whitecliff Region.
Tai Yishen was furious, and he turned to face Xing Kai. “You’re scolding me!”
Xing Kai grinned. “Nope, that’s really a fact. That’s his secret technique.’
Tai Yishen gave Bu Kong a strange look. Beat me back to my mother’s womb? What kind of secret technique is that?
Bu Kong sneered in response. “Try it out.”
With that, he increased his attacking speed.
Tai Yishen grew nervous. He was arrogant, even when against someone like Qiu Shi or an Honored Chosen, but he still knew that such people were actually his peers, as were the Ten Arbiters. Even one of the Ten Arbiters had given him words of caution, and since Tai Yishen did not know what was happening, he could only blindly dodge the incoming attacks in a slightly confused manner.
Cultivators were flooding into the Whitecliff Region from all directions, not only the Fifth Mainland’s reinforcements, but also more Sixth Mainland cultivators.
Most were the heirs of Imprinter families who had not quite reached the level of the Realmlings, but they were not weak either. Of particular note were the heirs from the Cosmic Imprinter families. Many people joined forces to fight against the two Ten Arbiters in the same fashion as how Lu Yin and others were facing off against Little Arrow Saint.
The battlefield in the Whitecliff Region was filled with millions of cultivators battling each other to the death.
And naturally, the most glorious place on this battlefield was the Champions’ Stage.
Tai Yishen’s attack methods were strange, but Bu Kong’s secret technique was even stranger. In the end, Tai Yishen could not evade every attack, and Bu Kong struck him with his secret technique as he slapped Tai Yishen in the abdomen. Tai Yishen was not injured by the attack, but his body inexplicably grew smaller until his appearance had reverted to that of a child of about ten years. He then stared blankly at Bu Kong who was suddenly a head taller than him.
Bu Kong sneered and then smacked down with his hand again. “Go die.”
Tai Yishen was taken aback, as he had been literally smacked back to his childhood by a palm. He raised his hand to block Bu Kong’s attack, but a sword suddenly sliced out, interrupting them. Still, the blade was easily shattered by Bu Kong, and his palm continued moving downwards. Then, an arrow shot through the void, aimed at Bu Kong.
[1] This name basically means “Highest God,” so it is an extremely arrogant name.
