Chapter 1778: Why Is It Gone?

Chapter 1725: Why Is It Gone?

“When do you want to leave?” the First Protector asked, his tone betraying his rotten mood.

Lu Yin said, “We should wait a bit longer, as there’s still quite a bit of attention on us right now.”

The First Protector was still upset, and he had the remaining two Envoy-level androids from the Hall of Honor pull back. At this time, they needed to hide themselves before crossing the entire battlefield and sneaking into Sky Creation Academy. If they were discovered, they would just explain that they were the Sixth Mainland’s representatives, which was a wonderful cover.

Lu Yin was secretly calculating the time; it was almost the right moment!

With a thought, an astral chessboard appeared beneath his feet, and he moved.

His body suddenly shifted across the battlefield to appear between Admiral Chong and the oversized mechanical giant. A leaf appeared in Lu Yin’s hand, and with the Yu Secret Art, it suddenly disappeared. When it reappeared, it had been stuck to the body of the massive giant.

This leaf was the bit of Origin Matter that Lu Yin had Pilfered with his die. He hoped to use the Origin Matter to push Sky Creation Academy into the forefront, which had been his plan all along.

His entire purpose in traveling to the Technocracy was to shove Sky Creation Academy into the limelight for the entire universe. After that, even if someone from the Perennial World was sent over, Lu Yin would learn about it almost immediately, as such news would be instantly sent to the Fifth and Sixth Mainlands.

Since it was impossible for Lu Yin to stop the Perennial World by himself, he wanted to drag everyone else into the fight. Origin Matter was too valuable. Even in the Perennial World it was fought over by everyone, not to mention in the Fifth and Sixth Mainlands.

Lu Yin believed that the moment news of Sky Creation Academy possessing Origin Matter spread, both the Fifth and Sixth Mainlands would erupt into chaos, especially the Sixth Mainland. It was even possible that their Progenitors would make a move.

Origin Matter was necessary for a person to become a Progenitor, which meant that it was impossible to estimate its value, so he felt a tinge of pain from using the only bit he had.

Once the leaf was stuck onto the giant, a vague and indescribable aura began to spread.

The same aura had appeared when Lu Yin had first obtained it with his die, and it had only stopped after he stored it away in his cosmic ring. However, there was nothing to stop the aura from spreading through the Technocracy, and the First Protector quickly sensed it.

Lu Yin had absolutely no worry that news of the Origin Matter would not spread, as there was no place in the universe that was perfectly sealed. Even though the Technocracy was mysterious and information about it rarely leaked outside, Lu Yin absolutely believed that the Fifth and Sixth Mainlands had their own means of learning certain details. Otherwise, their countless years of war would have been for naught.

Lu Yin moved across the chaotic battle, and he rushed up to the First Protector in excitement. “Senior, I just saw some Origin Matter!”

The First Protector was caught off guard and was startled by Lu Yin’s exclamation, and then his eyes went wide. “What did you just say?”

“I just saw some Origin Matter! It’s on that massive robot!”

How absurd! How could there possibly be Origin Matter on the mechanical giant? Even though the First Protector truly did not believe the ridiculous claim, he still glanced over. After all, if they could pick up a bit of Origin Matter, their trip would not have been made in vain. Each bit of Origin Matter was no different from another potential Progenitor, and such prospects were too important to the Fifth Mainland.

At the same time, the leaf’s aura was spreading across the battlefield faster and faster, and it quickly spread outside of the Sophic Rift. It was undetectable to ordinary cultivators, but anyone who had reached the Envoy level would instantly sense it.

For example, Xin Yu. She felt a sense of vitality wash over her, like a new breath.

The First Protector also felt the aura. He stared at the mechanical giant, looking at the leaf that was stuck to the enormous carapace; how could there be Origin Matter in this place?

Lu Yin blew out a long breath, as he had succeeded. The Origin Matter’s aura was spreading, and the Fifth and Sixth Mainlands would absolutely learn of this. After this, the situation would no longer be in his hands.

Instead, Lu Yin started mourning the loss of his Origin Matter.

Lu Yin had actually wanted to take the Origin Matter back after exposing it, but he had quickly realized that other people were far from stupid. Without real Origin Matter present, how would Sky Creation Academy possibly remain as the focus of everyone’s attention?

The only option was to sacrifice the Origin Matter and make it into a treasure that everyone genuinely fought for. In this manner, everything would make sense to outsiders, and it would not feel like a contrived scheme that someone else had put into play.

Lu Yin had never believed himself to be much more intelligent than others, so if he tried to outsmart people, he would ultimately catch the short end of the stick. Besides, this Origin Matter had been free, so it really was as if he had never gotten it at all.

The Origin Matter’s appearance had no effect on the androids; they did not recognize it, and they could not sense its aura at all. Even the largest mechanical giant could not feel that it had Origin Matter stuck to its body while it was fighting with Admiral Chong. Only the First Protector and the most powerful cyborgs were able to sense the Origin Matter’s presence.

The First Protector was eager to grab it, and he started plotting how he could surreptitiously collect the Origin Matter.

Suddenly, the leaf disappeared.

It not only disappeared from the First Protector’s sight, but also from that of Xin Yu and all the other Envoy cyborgs in the Lost Course Army’s sights. Everyone who had sensed the leaf previously was stunned, as it had vanished.

Lu Yin was also startled; what had happened to the Origin Matter? Why was it gone? Could it have been smashed to nothing by Admiral Chong’s attack?

The next moment, a figure emerged from the void. He was holding a woman in one hand and the Origin Matter in the other. There was a smug smile on the old man’s face. “I never thought that I’d pick up something this good as soon as I stepped foot in the Forsaken Land! Origin Matter? Who would put this on their body? That’s way too excessive. Fortunately, it was seen by this old man, hahahaha!”

Lu Yin stared in stupefaction at the old man who had just appeared. Kui- Kui Luo?

Lu Yin had never dreamed that Kui Luo would suddenly appear at the most important juncture of this plan and steal the Origin Matter!

Wait… is he holding onto Wang Yun?

Instantly, Lu Yin understood that Kui Luo had taken Wang Yun hostage and used her to travel to the Technocracy.

Kui Luo’s appearance in the Sophic Rift drew a great deal of attention, and the First Protector instantly attacked in an attempt to steal the Origin Matter from Kui Luo.

However, Kui Luo swept through the nearby region of space with his spiritual force, stopping the First Protector in his tracks. The old man’s face paled. Semi- Semi-Progenitor!

Kui Luo was also startled, and he turned his head to stare at Lu Yin. The old man had noticed Lu Yin’s presence the moment he had scanned the area. Had he actually already found Lu Yin? “Lu Xiaoxuan?”

Lu Yin and Kui Luo both stared at each other slack-jawed. “Put the leaf back!”

Kui Luo was taken aback. “What are you talking about?”

Lu Yin grew increasingly anxious. “Put the leaf back! It’s mine.”

Just as Kui Luo was about to reply, his head suddenly turned to stare in another direction, and his expression drastically changed. “So fast? That’s not good. They’re here to kill you.”

He then looked back at Lu Yin. “Don’t expose yourself. Bai Laogui and Wang Si are here to kill you.”

Lu Yin’s scalp went completely numb; Bai Laogui and Wang Si were both Semi-Progenitors!

Space trembled as a peerless strength swept over in the distance, causing everything in the Sophic Rift to come to a complete stop.

The largest giant, who was the commander of the Lost Course Army, looked over. This power?

“Kui Luo, stop right there!” Wang Si howled. Her voice rang out, and it caused many of the androids to explode.

Lu Yin grew pale, and he clenched his hands into tight fists.

The First Protector grew solemn, as this tremor contained a weight that he could not withstand. This was the power of an inner world, which was the unique power of a Semi-Progenitor. Another one had just arrived on the tail of the first.

Kui Luo laughed wildly. “You old bat, you really are impressive at chasing me down!”

He quickly moved further away.

“Kui Luo, you’re courting death!” Another fierce shout echoed, this one from Bai Laogui, a Semi-Progenitor from the Celestial Frost Sect’s Bai family.

Kui Luo instantly taunted the other two. “Just you two want to deal with me? Quit dreaming! It’s useless even if you both are secret lovers.”

The next moment, Wang Si and Bai Laogui suddenly appeared in the Sophic Rift at the same time. They stared at Kui Luo off in the distance but did not go after him. Their goal was to hunt down Lu Yin, not deal with Kui Luo.

They had only encountered Kui Luo out of sheer coincidence, and the two of them had no desire to stay even after discovering his presence.

Lu Yin started to panic; that old fart Kui Luo had actually led these two old monsters to the Technocracy instead of somewhere else. This was a huge problem, as the moment either Semi-Progenitor scanned the area, Lu Yin would be discovered.

Even though Lu Yin was panicking, Admiral Chong had not. Instead, it shifted a layer of material covering its body and released the most powerful gravitational wave possible towards Wang Si and Bai Laogui in an attempt to lock them down and trap them. Androids had no concept of the power of a Semi-Progenitor, not even those at the level of Admiral Chong and the massive mechanical giant.

Wang Si and Bai Laogui had both appeared on the battlefield without any sort of precursor or explanation for their presence. However, they had appeared from the direction of Sky Creation Academy, and the mechanical giant had not moved against them. So, to Admiral Chong, Sky Creation Academy was cooperating with these two people, and he did not hesitate to attack.

The gravitational wave created a storm across the battlefield that tried to pull Wang Si and Bai Laogui across it.

Bai Laogui just frowned. “Annoying.”

He waved a hand, and an invisible power overwhelmed Admiral Chong and shattered the android’s body.

This left the entire battlefield completely silent. Admiral Chong was a monster with a power level of a million, so how had he been disintegrated so casually?

The enormous mechanical giant stared at the two humans in shock, but they simply ignored him.

“We’ll go straight to the Forsaken Land to deal with Lu Xiaoxuan. Kui Luo is also looking for him, so we can’t let Kui Luo get to him first and hide the brat,” Bai Laogui stated solemnly.

Wang Si frowned. “There are also the Forsaken Land’s Semi-Progenitors. The fact that Wang Shang was forced to retreat shows that Lu Xiaoxuan has a tremendous amount of influence here. Don’t forget how much of a mess that kid created in the Perennial World. Do not be complacent.”

“He’s just a baby. Even if Lu Xiaoxuan hadn’t forgotten everything from back then, he still would be no match for either of us.”

“I meant the Forsaken Land’s Semi-Progenitors.”

…

Lu Yin, the First Protector, and everyone else on the battlefield instantly understood their position, and no one spoke. The humans had hidden themselves inside a damaged spacecraft and did not even dare to look at Wang Si or Bai Laogui.

This was especially true of Lu Yin. These two old people had come here specifically to hunt him down, so he would die the moment he was discovered.

Suddenly, Kui Luo returned. He had wanted to lure Wang Si and Bai Laogui away from the battlefield, only to discover that they were completely ignoring him. “Hey, old bat, do you not want your granddaughter anymore?”

He lifted Wang Yun up.

Wang Si glared at Kui Luo with cold eyes. “If I were you, I would have never saved Lu Xiaoxuan. Isn’t it safer to live in peace?”

Kui Luo sneered. “Safe? With you traitors?”

Wang Si’s eyes grew hard. “What relationship do you have with the Lu family? Back then, you didn’t hesitate to charge into the center of Dragon Mountain to save him, and now you’ve chased him to the Forsaken Land.”

These three did nothing to conceal their conversation. None of them saw the androids as human as they were more than a bunch of machines in the eyes of the Semi-Progenitors.

“Old woman, I just like him while I don’t like you, get it?” Kui Luo rolled his eyes.

Bai Laogui’s gaze grew sharp. “Stop the nonsense! Today I’ll deal with you.”

Even as he spoke, he pointed a finger: Celestial Being Shows the Way. At the same time, Wang Si also attacked.

Kui Luo vaguely glanced towards Lu Yin, and then, without any hesitation, he fled far away. As long as the other two Semi-Progenitors were led away, Lu Xiaoxuan would not be discovered.

Lu Yin had the same thoughts.

However, Lu Yin, Kui Luo, and Wang Si each had their own plans, but they had all forgotten one thing: they were in the Technocracy, and everything in this place was under constant surveillance. Even Arch-Elder Zen was wary of this place.
