Chapter 1254: Lu Yin VS Lightson

Lightson forced his spear downwards and the lightspear changed into multiple beams that shot into all directions. Since it was all light, the attack was not limited by distance. Lightson felt that he possessed comparable strength to the Honor Chosens and that he was just as powerful as the inheritors of the Neoverse’s major forces. Thus, he felt that running into Lu Yin was a good opportunity for him to prove himself.

Lu Yin was surprised by the attack, as he had not known that the spear was nothing but light. Still, no matter how hard it was to catch a ray of light, this attack had still been formed by star energy, and since it was star energy, Lu Yin was able to overcome it due to his control or star energy already reaching the Wordliness realm.

Lightson was attempting to push his spear down, but it suddenly stopped as it approached Lu Yin’s shoulder. Lightson’s expression changed, as he had lost control of his spear. The light quickly dissipated.

Lu Yin stared at Lightson. “How dare you challenge me when you can’t even hold your weapon properly?”

He lifted a hand and his palm approached Lightson. As the palm approached, the light shrouding Lightson’s body began to dim.

Lightson’s eyes narrowed as his star energy began wildly surging. Although Lu Yin was in the same cultivation realm as Lightson, Lu Yin was able to control his opponent’s star energy. Lightson suddenly remembered that Lu Yin was a Boundless Advanced Lockbreaker, and Lockbreakers carried the advantage when fighting against opponents within the same realm.

Lu Yin’s palm slowly approached. Although Lightson was not weak, he still was not much of a threat to Lu Yin, and Lightson’s strength could at best compare to Lu Yin’s when he had fought against Lan Si in the Outerverse. This meant that Lightson was actually weaker than the Ten Arbiters, which caused Lu Yin to grow curious as to whether Lightson still had any hidden skills.

Lightson’s star energy was suppressed and this caused his battle technique to become unstable. As Lu Yin’s palm approached him, he knew that he would lose once Lu Yin struck him. He didn’t challenge Lu Yin rashly as everyone knew that Lu Yin was physically gifted. Thus, since his attack was light, he should have been able to defeat physically strong powerhouses. However, he hadn’t realized that Lu Yin had such good control over star energy.

Lightson gritted his teeth and another ball of light appeared from within his body to confront Lu Yin’s attack.

Lu Yin’s palm landed on the light and his eyes went wide. “Fatesand?”’

Lightson’s face grew red as the fatesand blocked Lu Yin’s attack and the light around his body intensified. “Light Explosion.”

Lu Yin saw countless rays of light fill his field of vision, and then suddenly, he was unable to see anything.

With the light removed, Lu Yin had become blind.

Lightson lifted his spear again and thrust it at Lu Yin. Most people would panic after losing their vision, Lightson saw this as his opportunity.

However, his attack missed its mark yet again. Lu Yin’s voice rang out, “Is this your last attempt? I’m quite disappointed.”

Lightson stared at Lu Yin in shock and saw glowing eyes. “You can still see?”

Lu Yin smiled. “Seeing? That doesn’t matter.”

His palm moved a bit and Lightson’s fatesand was shattered. A shockwave from Lu Yin’s attack struck Lightson and forced him back. He spat out a mouthful of blood and his shroud of light dissipated, revealing him as a young man with an average appearance.

A middle aged man appeared and helped Lightson. The older man glanced over at Lu Yin in surprise; his Young Master had been completely defeated.

Lightson had received a Vacuum Palm. Fortunately, Lu Yin had not used his full strength in the attack, as if he had even used the same power of the attack as he had used against Lan Si, Lightson would have died.

The fatesand returned to Lightson’s body. There was blood at the corner of his mouth and the middle aged man anxiously gave the youth some pills. “Young Master, how are you?”

Lightson’s face was pale and he was panting heavily. He stared at Lu Yin in astonishment. He had underestimated this person. Lu Yin really did have the strength to be one of ZENITH’s gatekeepers. Lightson had not even had the strength to retaliate, as the gap between them was too massive.

“I’m- I’m fine,” Lightson spoke slowly. He turned to Lu Yin. “Thank you for holding back.”

Lu Yin nodded. “Your attack is quite special. Is that how people from the Light World attack?”

Lightson laughed bitterly. “You still overcame it.”

“But normal people aren’t able to do so,” Lu Yin answered.

Lightson was not sure if Lu Yin was complimenting himself or the Light World. “I admit defeat. Master was right, only a handful of people in our generation might be able to defeat you. I thought he had been exaggerating in order to encourage me to work harder, but I can now see he spoke the truth.”

Lu Yin shrugged.

“Sorry for disturbing you.” Lightson turned to return to his vessel.

Lu Yin suddenly asked, “Does your fatesand also take the form of light?”

Lightson nodded. “Fatesand will take different forms depending on its owner. Do you also have some?”

Lu Yin nodded. He had actually wanted to absorb Lightson’s fatesand. Despite the fact that Lu Yin did not believe the legends that fatesand could lead someone to Destiny, he still felt that it would not be bad for him to gather more of it. However, he had refrained from taking Lightson’s fatesand since it was such a precious treasure, and even Mister Mu had mentioned that it was difficult to obtain. There was no way that Lightson would agree to trade such a treasure to Lu Yin, especially considering the fact that the inheritor of a hidden world was definitely not hurting for money.

The orb of light left.

Lu Yin returned to his own spacecraft.

Ku Wei immediately laid on the compliments, “Seventh Bro, who was that lightbulb? How dare he challenge Seventh Bro! He should go and consider his own abilities!”

Lu Yin asked, “Have you heard of the Light World?

Ku Wei paused. “The Light World? I think I’ve heard of it before. It’s probably one of the hidden worlds within the Honor Zone, and I think it’s quite well known as one of the stronger hidden worlds.”

Lu Yin continued, “Apart from the Light World, what are the other stronger hidden worlds within the Honor Zone?”

Ku Wei thought for a moment, but then shook his head. “I’m not sure. The Seven Courts typically ignore any of the hidden worlds. If the people in them were more powerful, they wouldn’t be hiding in the hidden worlds.”

Hiding? Lu Yin did not agree with that view. When Mu En had first introduced the concept of the hidden worlds to Lu Yin, in addition to the regular hidden worlds, Mu En had also mentioned that some of the hidden worlds were not even recorded by the Hall of Honor, like the world that had nearly taken off Lu Yin’s finger.

Lu Yin had heard before that the limit of the microscopic was the macroscopic, and he felt there was a possibility of there being some unimaginable hidden world in some corner of the Honor Zone that not even the Hall of Honor was aware of. Although the Hall of Honor kept an eye on the hidden worlds, it was just as possible that there might be some terrifyingly powerful hidden world that was observing the Hall of Honor.

He would never forget what he had witnessed on his way to Erudite Flowzone’s border: a civilization had been monitored by another civilization as though it were a bug.

Could there be another civilization monitoring their universe as well?

The spacecraft continued on its way towards Chaos Flowzone as Lu Yin’s head spun with wild ideas. They would soon arrive in the flowzone.

A few days later, Lu Yin’s spacecraft crossed the Astral River and officially entered Chaos Flowzone.

Meanwhile, to the southeast of Zenith Mountain, participants from the Astral Beast Domain had started to arrive.

The Astral Beast Domain had no need of spacecraft, as all of their participants and guardians were atop an enormous skeleton. The skeleton was massive and there were multiple curved bones that held various beasts.

The beasts were in all different shapes and sizes. Some were enormous, while others were smaller than a finger. Although the Human Domain had fought against the Astral Beast Domain for countless years, they still were unable to recognize all of the beasts, in large part because some of the creatures were able to evolve.

As the skeleton drew closer, everyone in the area surrounding Zenith Mountain turned to look at it.

They saw an enormous snake.

They saw bugs that were tens of thousands of meters long that released noises that gave people chills.

They saw gorgeous snow witches.¹

On the western side of Zenith Mountain, cultivators from the Sixth Mainland stared at the skeleton in surprise.

“What is that? There are so many beasts! Are we supposed to compete with them?”

“The Fifth Mainland is so useless. We also had powerful astral beasts in the Sixth Mainland, but they were tamed long ago by the Daosource Sect and they’re now helping us fight those monsters. The Fifth Mainland can’t even tame some beasts.”

“Don’t underestimate those beasts, they’re different from the beasts in our Sixth Mainland. These ones are much stronger and are actually intelligent. The Blood Homage Realm suffered terrible losses when they invaded the Astral Beast Domain.”

“That’s because the Astral Beast Domain is too barren and is completely worthless.”

“Of ZENITH’s five gatekeepers, one is from the Astral Beast Domain. Even the three Progenitors have acknowledged the power of that place, and yet you still want to underestimate them? We shouldn’t underestimate either the Astral Beast Domain or the Technocracy.”

“The Technocracy is also participating? Aren’t they helping us?”

“That’s actually uncertain. We only managed to seize control of half of the Technocracy’s Master Brain. The rest is still unknown.”

…

To the north of Zenith Mountain, Xia Luo was still with his former classmates. He needed to stay close to Lulu Mavis, as he would be fused with Xia Jiuyou if he did not.

“Those beasts are so scary! Do we have to fight them?” Coco wondered as she stared out at the enormous snake and bugs that were riding atop the skeleton. She was terrified.

Zora consoled her, “That’s nothing we need to worry about. The beasts sent by the Astral Beast Domain have to all be powerhouses aiming for the top. We can just leave them to Lu Yin and the others.”

Lulu asked, “Where is Lu Yin? Why isn’t he here yet?”

Xia Luo smiled. “He should be arriving soon. He just took over Blaze Realm, so he’s probably quite busy.”

Coco carefully observed Xia Luo. “Hey, let me give you an injection. I think you’ve been quite seriously injured.”

Xia Luo’s eye twitched. He looked over at the huge syringe on Coco’s back and instinctively refused. He felt that getting stabbed by that needle would be as pleasant as being stabbed by a sword.

Some distance away, God Taiyi and a few others sat inside a restaurant as they stared at the skeleton in astonishment. “That’s a lot of runes! The Celestial Beast Empire is going all out, and even Yao Xuan woke up.”

God White looked at the skeleton with Truesight before turning to God Taiyi. “Judging by these runes, those beasts from the Astral Beast Domain are powerful, but they still aren’t too strong. They must be hiding their abilities.”

“Obviously.” God Qingguang rolled his eyes.

Some people nearby muttered, “It’s those nuts from Gods’ Origin! Stay away from them.”

“You’re right; keep your distance. They’re crazy.”
