Chapter 1138: Looking For Treasures

Even Xia Jiuyou was caught off guard by this development, but he suddenly thought of something as he warily looked over at Yuhua Mavis.

Unseen Light was being controlled by the Mavis family’s innate gift.

Yuhua Mavis’s eyes returned to normal, and she grew solemn as she looked at Unseen Light.

Unseen Light’s eyes grew sharp, and he looked back at Yuhua Mavis, as she had briefly taken control of him.

Unseen Light was shocked, though Yuhua Mavis was also stunned. She had originally expected to control him for much longer. However, she had only managed to do so for a mere moment. Unseen Light was indeed very powerful, and he was qualified to fight against her.

A black coffin sealed Ling Gong, but no thorns appeared like when Yuhua Mavis had been sealed within it. Unseen Light immediately dispelled the secret technique, and Ling Gong fell out.

Although Ling Gong had not been forced to deal with a full powered secret technique like Yuhua Mavis had, White Knight had still been severely injured. Her armor of condensed star energy shattered, revealing her cute and innocent looking face.

Many people were stunned at this sight, and they all stared at Ling Gong, dumbfounded.

The Ten Arbiters’ White Knight was actually a small girl?

At this moment, even Unseen Light, Wen Sansi, and Lan Si stared at Ling Gong in disappointment. They knew that Ling Gong was female, but none of them had known that she looked this, this… lovable? Pure? This was White Knight? Her appearance was completely different from the image of a knight!

Beneath, Lu Yin pursed his lips. He did not know why, but he felt a little pity. It was as though a secret that had used to belong solely to him was now known to everyone, and it was very uncomfortable.

Xia Jiuyou stared at Ling Gong in amazement. “Who could have known that you looked this pure?”

Ling Gong gritted her teeth, converged her armor of star energy, glared at Unseen Light, and then aimed her spear at Xia Jiuyou before stabbing out. “Rubbish.”

From another side, Starsibyl glanced at Wen Sansi before dashing towards Xia Jiuyou. Although Ling Gong looked fine at a glance, the truth was that she had been severely injured. A secret technique was not something that could be endured that easily, so Xia Jiuyou could only be left to Starsibyl.

Xia Jiuyou instantly abandoned Ling Gong when he saw Starsibyl approaching. When facing Starsibyl, he said, “The grudge from back then should have already been settled.”

“Then finish it,” Starsibyl coldly responded. She then looked over at Ling Gong. “Go and help Wen Sansi. The Innerverse must claim the position of one of the Cosmic Five.”

Ling Gong did not move, and she stared at Shang Qing. She would not cooperate with others, and at worst, she would simply lose. However, she absolutely had to lose with honor.

Starsibyl frowned and felt rather helpless. All of the Ten Arbiters had similar personalities, and all of them wanted respect. She suddenly thought of Lu Yin, as he was much more practical. However, it was unfortunate; if he had broken through to the Enlighter realm, then the situation would be completely different.

Without Starsibyl’s help, Qiu Shi was able to completely overpower Wen Sansi, and her Celestial Sword Technique was enough to overcome all of Wen Sansi’s attacks. His Literary Prison was unable to trap her, and Wen Sansi was soon in grave danger.

Beneath the golden screens, Lan Si sighed. “This is how things should have turned out long ago. Wen Sansi doesn’t need anyone’s help.”

Lu Yin’s heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly remembered something that Lan Si had said before. “You once said that even if Wen Sansi just stands there, he still can’t be attacked. What did you mean by that?”

Lan Si looked up at Qiu Shi, rejoicing a bit at her approaching misfortune. “Just wait and see. You’ll soon know what it means to be infuriating.”

Lu Yin looked up at where Qiu Shi and Wen Sansi were fighting. His expectations started to rise.

Wen Sansi truly was not Qiu Shi’s match. All of the Innerverse’s Ten Arbiters were very powerful, but their backgrounds could not compare to that of the top youths from the Neoverse.

No matter if one looked at the Hall of Honor’s Honor Chosens, the Cosmic Sect’s true disciples, or the Seven Courts’ heirs, each and every one of them had a secret technique. Of the Ten Arbiters, few had a secret technique, and even Nightking Zhenwu had only managed to obtain a secret technique from the Daosource Sect’s ruins when he had received the Arrow Progenitor’s inheritance. If Zhenwu had not received that inheritance, then he would not have had a secret technique either. This showed the sheer difference in background and resources behind each of the youths.

Wen Sansi used both of his hands to write, and ancient characters appeared and formed a strange attack that enveloped Qiu Shi. The star energy around her swirled, as all of Wen Sansi’s attacks were like child’s play in her eyes. “The Wen family is most famous for their Literary Prison, but without it, what can you guys do?”

Wen Sansi frowned, and his fingers moved. Once again, an eight-by-eight Literary Prison trapped Qiu Shi. But a moment later, Qiu Shi used the Star Transference secret technique to trade positions with Wen Sansi. This time, however, she felt that something was amiss, as a Literary Prison had instantly appeared around her once again. This was the true Literary Prison, as the one that had appeared around her a moment ago had been fake.

Qiu Shi snorted and raised a hand to use a Cosmic Palm. Her star energy erupted with enough force to tear the Literary Prison open.

At this moment, Wen Sansi’s star energy gathered to form a huge painting of a mountain and sea that crashed down.

Down below, Lu Yin was surprised to see this. Wasn’t this the same technique that Han Chong had used? The leader of Astral-2, Realm Master Han Chong, had been called the Sage of Painting. He used his star energy to create paintings of mountains and rivers; who would have expected that Wen Sansi also knew the same technique?

The painting that Wen Sansi created with his star energy was not something that Han Chong’s creations could compare to. As the painting fell down, Qiu Shi let her star energy burst forth, and the void completely shattered in what looked like black lightning that shot out in all directions. The next moment, Qiu Shi gathered her star energy to form a longsword again, and the Celestial Sword Technique slashed through the scroll and towards Wen Sansi.

Wen Sansi’s attacks were inadequate, which was his greatest weakness.

Qiu Shi’s Celestial Sword Technique was not as overwhelming as the Twelfth Sword, but the sword could still slice through the Literary Prison. With Wen Sansi’s techniques, this attack was not something that he could defend against, which left him only able to evade the sword. However, how many times could he successfully dodge it?

Off in the distance, Starsibyl could not help but look over. She wanted to intervene, but she was being blocked by Xia Jiuyou. “I know all of your methods, and trying to intervene in that battle will only leave you at a disadvantage.”

Starsibyl was left with no choice but to seriously face Xia Jiuyou.

Nobody was able to help Wen Sansi, and the Celestial Sword Technique landed.

The Celestial Sword Technique drew close to Wen Sansi’s head, and it moved closer and closer, to the point where even Qiu Shi believed that the sword was guaranteed to strike true. As a result, she slightly diverted the attack, as there was no need to kill anyone during the Astral Tower contest.

Suddenly, a transparent screen appeared above Wen Sansi’s head, and the Celestial Sword Technique struck it.

There was nothing aside from a deafening thud as the void warped with ripples. The Celestial Sword Technique was not able to proceed any further, and it had actually been blocked. Not only that, but Qiu Shi was actually repelled a hundred meters back by an opposing force. She looked up with surprise.

All she could see was a barrier around Wen Sansi’s body that looked just like glass. He was within the barrier, and he was calm as he looked at Qiu Shi.

Qiu Shi was surprised. “Your innate gift.”

Wen Sansi’s lips bent upwards. “Sorry. I definitely can’t beat you, but you also can’t defeat me.”

Far below, Lu Yin looked up with a blank expression. “That’s what you were calling disgusting?”

Lan Si smiled bitterly. “I’m seeing it again. Wen Sansi’s innate gift is a barrier. An unbreakable barrier.”

Lu Yin was surprised. “An unbreakable barrier?”

Lan Si explained, “When I fought against Wen Sansi, I used 150 Stacks against that barrier in a frenzied attack, and he just let me hit him. No matter what I did, I couldn’t break through his barrier, and I was ultimately trapped by his Literary Prison. That’s why I said that I couldn’t beat him.”

“Is that also why you said you lost?”

“That’s right. I was trapped within the Literary Prison, and I also couldn’t break through his barrier. Thus, lost.”

Lu Yin looked at Wen Sansi up on the golden screen with curiosity. Did such an innate gift really exist? Was his barrier really unbreakable?

Lu Yin did not believe it, and clearly, neither did Qiu Shi. She continued to attack, and multiple stars appeared over her palm: Cosmic Palm.

Wen Sansi’s innate gift of barrier appeared once again, and he clearly had no plans to defend himself any more. He merely stood there and allowed Qiu Shi to attack him.

Nearly a thousand stars exploded as a palm struck the barrier, but the attack had no effect. Qiu Shi’s pupils shrank, and stars began to converge into swords. Almost a thousand stars gradually melded together to form the strongest Celestial Sword Technique that she had manifested up till now. The sword stabbed forward, and although its might could not quite compare to the Twelfth Sword, it was not too far behind it.

However, even that powerful blade could not break the barrier.

Wen Sansi said, “Once this barrier is used, nobody can harm me.”

Qiu Shi coldly responded, “It just means that my attacks haven’t surpassed its limits. There’s no such thing as a perfect technique, just as how there is no such thing as an invincible innate gift.”

Wen Sansi subconsciously glanced over at Shang Qing. “Isn’t the Tri-Yang Technique publicly acknowledged as a peerless technique?”

Qiu Shi did not reply. Instead, she used her Cosmic Palm to attack the barrier in a frenzied rush. Her onslaught lasted for a full minute, but it was indeed impossible to break through the barrier.

Wen Sansi’s innate gift of a barrier drew the attention of Yuhua Mavis and the others; was there really such a freakishly defensive innate gift?

Qiu Shi backed a thousand meters away and frowned at Wen Sansi. She really could not break his barrier.

Wen Sansi disgusted Qiu Shi. When he used his innate gift of a barrier, he could not attack, but others could not even think of beating him. Such a situation was completely infuriating.

Lu Yin was also disgusted.

“Seventh Bro, are you thinking of just watching on like this?” The Ghost Monkey’s voice rang in Lu Yin’s mind.

Lu Yin replied, “What should I do if not watch? I already lost.”

“Steal treasures! Aren’t those people risking life and death for those treasures? Let’s just take them first!” the monkey urged.

Lu Yin frowned. Although he was slightly tempted, such an idea was also quite embarrassing. “That wouldn’t be very good.”

The Ghost Monkey’s lips curled into a smile. “Let me ask you this: weren’t the Cosmic Five predetermined? Regardless of whether or not this took place behind the scenes, those people were already decided upon to become the next Cosmic Five, and you guys were just props for this show. The Neoverse never planned to let any of you to stain the inheritance of the five Mountains and Seas. If that’s the case, then why not take care of it ourselves? They were never being fair to us, so there’s no need for us to be obedient either.”

“That’s logical.” Lu Yin was a decisive person. A current suddenly appeared beneath his feet as he turned towards Lan Si. “You can take your time to watch. I’m going to go wander around.”

Lan Si was stumped. Wander around?

Lu Yin immediately grabbed Black and White as they shot into the current.

Black and White were not able to react in time, and they twitched, startled, as they reflexively resisted. They only obediently stopped after seeing that Lu Yin was the one who had grabbed them.

Off in the distance, Ming Yu saw this incident, but she felt a little lost. At this time, everyone was focused on the battles in the sky. Just what were these people trying to do?

After entering the current, Lu Yin maintained a tight hold on Black and White, and the twins did not move, allowing the current to carry them along.

After a while, Lu Yin grabbed Black and White as he rushed out of the current and shot towards the surface of the sea.

The currents moved with extraordinary speed, and they were essentially an expressway across the seafloor. When Lu Yin brought Black and White towards the surface, they were far away from the tall mountain that Lu Yin had previously ascended. When they looked up, they saw Liu Tianmu sprawled across the golden screen above them and Ling Gong’s Skycastle being eroded by the Tri-Yang Technique’s attacks. They had arrived at the mountain that Shang Qing had ascended.

Massive eyes had appeared atop this mountain when it had split open, and although Lu Yin did not know what use those eyes might have, since they were an inheritance within the Mountain and Seas Zone, they were clearly invaluable. The Progenitor’s blood had been priceless, and they far surpassed the value of Progenitor Wushang’s hide. Thus, the value of these eyes could only be imagined.

“Lu Yin, you scared us out of our minds! We thought that an enemy had found us!” White complained.

Black was also upset. “That’s right! How annoying!”

Lu Yin replied, “Let’s go. I’ll take you guys to go look for treasures.”
