Chapter 1585: The Truth

Lu Yin stared blankly at the sedan chair as it went by. While he was relieved that he had not been discovered, he was also completely stunned. He had not expected to find that bastard monkey here. You dare to pull such a prank? I’ll beat you to death one day!

Lu Yin had been terribly scared, and his back was slick with cold sweat.

Since he had Possessed a corpse king, he decided that he might as well try to find out a bit more about the Seven Skygods. In particular, he was very curious about Whiteless God. According to the legends, Whiteless God was the one who possessed the list of human traitors: Aeterna.

At this thought, Lu Yin controlled the corpse king’s body and raced towards a dark tower.

The corpse king soon approached the tower. However, Lu Yin was taken aback; the Possession was about to end, but he still had not even seen Whiteless God.

As Lu Yin stared at a dark tower off in the distance, he saw a figure slowly walk inside. Their appearance struck Lu Yin light a bolt of lightning; that was Undying Yushan!

Lu Yin’s consciousness returned to his own body, and he gasped for breath as his pupils fluctuated. He never could have dreamed that he would see Undying Yushan in Aeternus Nation. The man had not died—he truly was not dead. He did not seem to be a corpse king either, but rather a living, breathing human. It had really been Undying Yushan.

Lu Yin had long since guessed that there was a chance that Undying Yushan had not really died, but Lu Yin had no idea where the former emperor might have gone, or why the man had faked his own death. Lu Yin’s best guess was that Undying Yushan had done everything for the chance to practice the Undying Manual.

Lu Yin’s suspicions had grown even stronger after discovering that Liu Zishan had been controlled by someone, but while Lu Yin suspected that Undying Yushan was the one who had been controlling her, there was no proof.

As time passed, Lu Yin had gradually forgotten about the entire matter. He had never expected to see Undying Yushan in Aeternus Nation! What was the man doing in such a place? Also, wasn’t Aeternus Nation supposed to have been destroyed by the Progenitor of Secret Arts? Why did it still exist? Or, was it possible that Lu Yin had visited another Aeternus Nation?

Lu Yin was confused by everything that he had seen while Possessing the corpse king, but he desperately wanted to learn the truth.

Unfortunately, it would be too difficult to uncover this mystery. Though, maybe, could he learn the truth from the Ghost Monkey? This possibility caused Lu Yin’s eyes to light up.

The Ghost Monkey had been forcibly removed from Lu Yin by Shaman God. After living in Aeternus Nation for so long, the Ghost Monkey had likely learned quite a bit.

The detail that Lu Yin found most unacceptable was Undying Yushan’s presence. The man had treated Lu Yin very well in the past.

However, there was no way that Undying Yushan was aware that Lu Yin had discovered anything at all.

***

“I can easily gain control of the Great Eastern Alliance, and I can even influence the Seven Courts. I deserve to be given a bit more Vitality Poison.” Undying Yushan stood inside the dark tower as he spoke in a low voice.

“We merely have a cooperative relationship; we have no obligation to provide you with any resources.”

“Lu Yin has returned, and I can also control that kid. I don’t believe that he has no value to you.”

“Are you really confident that you can control him? Did you know that he is part of the Lu family? That invincible Lu family?”

Undying Yushan just smiled. “My original goal was just to practice the Undying Manual, and I gained control of him along the way. Who would have imagined that the little baby who pretended to be a member of the Zishan family would one day reach his current level? You can let him develop as much as you wish. I will remain hidden for now and will take control of him at the right time. He will not be able to escape.”

“I hope that you don’t underestimate the Lu family.”

Lu Yin rolled his die again, and after two more attempts, he finally rolled four pips and reentered the Timestop Space.

Soon, another 300 days passed. This time, upon exiting the space, Lu Yin had completely mastered the fourth level of the Cosmic Art.

3,600 stars of the Cosmic Art revolved around his body.

Lu Yin remained in the forbidden area behind Cosmo Hall for a few more days. After staying there for about half a month, he was no longer able to wait any longer.

He left Cosmo Hall and traveled to the innocuous planet where Elder Gong resided.

“What are you doing in the sect if you aren’t going to train?” Elder Gong asked calmly. He was staring off into the distance, but his eyes were unfocused.

Lu Yin answered in a respectful tone, “This disciple has mastered the fourth level of the Cosmic Art, and I wish to study the fifth level.”

Elder Gong’s eyes went wide, and he turned around to stare at Lu Yin. “What did you say?

Lu Yin knew that his claim was unbelievable, but there was nothing that he could do about it. He could not waste time in the Cosmic Sect just to hide his progress with the Cosmic Art. If he did, then there would be no reason to use his Timestop Space.

“This disciple’s training of the Cosmic Art went unexpectedly smoothly, and it only took me half a month to complete the fourth level,” Lu Yin stated. As he spoke, stars appeared and started revolving around his body. They spread out and surrounded the entire planet, which caused many people in the Cosmic Sect to glance over in surprise.

On Skystar, Elder Jiu Shen walked out and blinked. Is- is that the kid? This is too ridiculous! It’s only been half a month.

Elder Yuan Shou was also stunned by Lu Yin’s reveal. In just half a month, the youth had mastered the entire fourth level of the Cosmic Art. His talent was truly too terrifying.

Yuan Qiong’s expression grew solemn. Already, Qiu Shi’s talent for cultivating the Cosmic Art was absurd, as she surpassed all of her predecessors. In theory, even if Lu Yin’s talent was beyond Qiu Shi’s, he should not surpass her by this much. There had to be something else involved, and Yuan Qiong’s mind instantly jumped to the pattern on the bottom of Lu Yin’s foot. That was the only advantage that Lu Yin possessed that Qiu Shi lacked.

The fact that Lu Yin had been able to master the fourth level of the Cosmic Art in just half a month had to be related to the pattern that had been left behind by Progenitor Chen.

Yuan Qiong was not the only person to have such thoughts, as all of the other elders were thinking the exact same thing.

Elder Gong was amazed. It was impossible to fathom the power of a Progenitor. The pattern that had been left behind had actually allowed a child to master the fourth level of the Cosmic Art in a mere half month. In that case, how long would he take to master the fifth level? And what about the entire art?

Elder Gong had assumed that Lu Yin would need a great deal of time to completely learn the Cosmic Art, and he had never even considered that it could proceed so quickly.

Lu Yin stared at Elder Gong. “Elder, can this disciple be allowed to learn the fifth level of the Cosmic Art?”

Elder Gong voiced his admiration. “While you have indeed met the necessary conditions to learn the next level, you must first learn how to use the stars that you have simulated. The Cosmic Art not only assists in one’s cultivation, but it also strengthens the power of the Cosmic Palm and the Celestial Sword. Have you learned the Celestial Sword Technique?”

Lu Yin shook his head. He had seen Qiu Shi use the technique on several previous occasions, but Lu Yin had never learned the technique himself.

The Celestial Sword was quite powerful, and the more stars that one could simulate with the Cosmic Art, the stronger the technique became. Lu Yin was quite eager to learn it.

Elder Gong offered his guidance, so Lu Yin remained on the planet in order to learn the Celestial Sword Technique.

Several days later, someone arrived at the Cosmic Sect, bringing some magical smoke with them. It was Gu Xiao’er.

Elder Yao Shan was the one to greet the youth in Cosmo Hall.

“In the past, you lost the first level of the Cosmic Art that you were given. Despite that, are you really shameless enough to return and ask to study it yet again?” Elder Yao Shan shouted fiercely as he glared at Gu Xiao’er.

Gu Xiao’er pulled his head back in fear and quickly replied, “Senior, I brought the smoke that your Cosmic Sect needs. I heard that you enjoy smoking?”

“What’s this nonsense?” Elder Yao Shan shouted.

Gu Xiao’er pursed his lips. “But I’m sure that I remembered this correctly. Who is it that enjoys smoking?”

Elder Yao Shan’s voice grew cold. “Leave the smoke. I can give you the first level of the Cosmic Art once again, but remember this: if you lose it again, even if you hide in Smoke Eater Peaks, this old man will tear you apart.”

Gu Xiao’er adjusted his expression to show his delight. He quickly agreed, all the while cursing the old man in his heart.

After successfully receiving the Cosmic Art, Gu Xiao’er was ready to leave. He had no desire to stay around in the Cosmic Sect, and the sect’s disciples also did not like Gu Xiao’er either.

Unfortunately, Gu Xiao’er ran into Yao Ji the moment he exited Cosmo Hall.

Gu Xiao’er grinned. “What bad luck.”

Yao Ji stared at Gu Xiao’er. “What was that?”

While Gu Xiao’er was indeed intimidated by Elder Yao Shan, he was not afraid of Yao Ji at all. “No need to repeat something good.”

Yao Ji forced Gu Xiao’er to stop. There were several inner disciples behind Yao Ji, and they all surrounded Gu Xiao’er. Every single one of the disciples glared at him.

Gu Xiao’er had naturally been escorted by experts on his way to the Cosmic Sect from Smoke Eater Peaks, but those powerhouses had stayed outside the sect, as they could not enter without permission.

“Hey, if you want a fight, I’ve never been afraid of anyone in my entire life! Come on, boy, let me teach you how to spell ‘submit,’” Gu Xiao’er taunted.

Yao Ji had been feeling stifled due to Lu Yin’s presence in the Cosmic Sect, and at this moment, he was being antagonized by Gu Xiao’er. Without thinking any further, Yao Ji simply attacked. Naturally, Gu Xiao’er was unwilling to be outdone. His cultivation was actually even higher than Yao Ji’s. Yao Ji was a Hunter, which meant that, of the Cosmic Sect’s true disciples, only Mu Ziying could compare to Gu Xiao’er while Yao Ji fell a bit short.

Outside Cosmo Hall, Yao Ji led several of the inner disciples to attack Gu Xiao’er. However, Gu Xiao’er’s smoke was truly miraculous. No matter how Yao Ji attacked, he could not break through the smoke. On the other hand, while Gu Xiao’er wanted to fight against Yao Ji, he was not having an easy time either, and each passing moment drew more people over.

“Cosmic Palm.”

“Block.”

“Infinity Burst.”

“Block.”

“Don’t use your smoke if you’re strong enough!” Yao Ji roared.

Gu Xiao’er sneered. “Don’t use your Cosmic Art if you’re strong enough! Aren’t you embarrassed to get beat up in front of your buddies?”

Many of the Cosmic Sect’s disciples had gathered here, including inner disciples Yun Feifei, Yan Kun, and Hua Xiao, as well as some of the elders.

Eventually, Elder Yao Shan arrived, and he waved a hand to break apart the few people fighting. He then glared at Gu Xiao’er. “You dare to cause trouble the moment you receive our cultivation art? Are you trying to lose this one as well?”

Gu Xiao’er felt offended. He had been ganged up on by others, and he had only wanted to teach them a lesson. Being targeted now made him feel like he had never been wronged this much in his entire life. “Will your Cosmic Sect protect your members even when they’re in the wrong?”

“Arrogant!” Elder Yao Shan shouted furiously. A tremendous amount of pressure fell down, and Gu Xiao’er gritted his teeth as he fought to remain standing.

Suddenly, someone moved in front of Gu Xiao’er, and they blocked the pressure coming from Elder Yao Shan. “Elder, this person is a friend of this disciple. Please allow this disciple to take him away.”

Lu Yin had moved in front of Gu Xiao’er. He was not required to stay next to Elder Gong at all times while learning the Celestial Sword. So, while he had been wandering about, he had coincidentally stumbled across this situation.

When Gu Xiao’er heard Lu Yin’s voice, he looked up. There were tears in his eyes as he called out, “Bro- Big Brother, is that you? Big Brother Lu Yin, you’re back!”

Lu Yin looked over. “I haven’t heard you apologize to the elder yet.”

Gu Xiao’er shot a glance at Elder Yao Shan and merely snorted.

Elder Yao Shan’s eyebrows nearly leaped off his face. “If you don’t know any better, then scram from my Cosmic Sect!”

Gu Xiao’er was furious as well. “You damn old ghost, who are you talking to?”

Elder Yao Shan glared, raised a hand, and slapped down. “Arrogant!”

At the same time, Lu Yin also raised his hand. A Vacuum Palm met the elder’s slap as it fell. The void between the two shattered, and spatial fissures spread out to the sides, creating a break in the void.

Elder Yao Shan’s pupils instantly shrank. He had aimed his attack not only at Gu Xiao’er, but also at Lu Yin, as the elder wanted to teach Lu Yin a lesson. Shockingly, the elder had actually been forced back. He was an Envoy whose power level was at the cusp of 700,000. Even if it had only been a casual attack, how could a youth like Lu Yin possibly block an attack from a powerhouse like him?

Lu Yin’s body merely swayed. He shook his hand while indifferently stating, “Elder, he was merely speaking. Even if his words were not very polite, it’s a bit much to react this strongly.”

Gu Xiao’er was horrified. He had not expected Elder Yao Shan to actually attack him. If not for Lu Yin, Gu Xiao’er knew that he would have suffered terribly.

At the same time, Gu Xiao’er was startled to see that Lu Yin had actually managed to block an Envoy’s attack.

The moment Lu Yin made a move, he had blown everyone away.
