Chapter 762: Daemon Slash

Chapter 697: Daemon Slash

“Who dares to oppose me? I’m the Society’s vice president—do you guys want to rebel?” Saul shouted, his voice resounding throughout Sourcepeak Planet and causing many people to become alarmed. 

In the distance, Wei Rong exclaimed, “It’s no wonder why he’s the vice president. His power is enough to rival or even surpass an average Enlighter.” 

Angie replied, “Lockbreakers have always had the ability to surpass their cultivation peers, and it can just be thought of as them having superior talent.”

Wei Rong smiled. “So what? The brainless ones are still brainless.”

Outside of the Hall of Insight, Aden raised his thunder shield and bore the brunt of the firearm attacks from the area in front of them. This allowed Lockbreakers like Straight Metallic Man to seize this opportunity and charge into the Hall of Insight.

Lu Yin turned around to look back at the altar. Fiend Li had actually been defeated quickly, and Saul’s rune lines had increased once again. If that was the case, then Wei Rong’s true trump cards should appear soon. 

Above the planet, an elder tore through the void, stopping right in front of Sourcepeak Planet before stepping out. His body appeared directly above the altar on Sourcepeak Planet, about a thousand meters away from Saul. 

Saul stared gloomily at the elder, as he knew that this matter was not as simple as he had initially thought. Everybody knew that Fiend Li was not his match, and he had guessed that other experts would appear later, but he had never expected that this person would appear. Lord Egret was an Enlighter whose power level was over 250,000, and he was also an elite Enlighter. 

“Vice President Saul, it’s been a while,” Lord Egret sighed as he looked at Saul.

Saul’s gaze became icy. “Lord Egret, you dare to plot against my Lockbreaker Society?”

Lord Egret smiled. “If the Innerverse and Outerverse were not separated, then I wouldn’t dare. But given the current circumstances, why not give it a try?” 

“What price have those people offered for you to act? I can pay double,” Saul coldly told the Enlighter. 

Lord Egret shook his head. “At our realm, we won’t be moved by normal prices, so there’s no need to waste your efforts.” 

“Since that’s so, then the Outerverse will lose an Enlighter today,” Saul said before one of his hands shot out towards Lord Egret. The Enlighter’s eyes flashed, as he had been waiting for this moment for a long time. He had long since wanted to duel against Saul in order to prove that the concept of a so-called “Realmbreaker Lockbreaker” was just a joke, and his opportunity had finally arrived. 

Lord Egret attacked. An Enlighter’s might was not something that could compare to that of an ordinary cultivator, as any simple movement of his could cause the skies to flip over. 

Just a single attack was enough to show Saul how terrifyingly powerful Lord Egret was, but the Enlighter was also able to sense some danger from Saul. More importantly, all of Sourcepeak Planet started to fracture apart. 

Although Saul had schemed against many Lockbreakers, it had all been with the goal of becoming the society’s president, and he had never hoped to destroy Sourcepeak Planet. He was actually quite attached to this planet. For him, Sourcepeak Planet could not be destroyed, or else the Outerverse Lockbreaker Society would lose all of its prestige. 

Saul thought for a moment and then sped up into space. Lord Egret smiled, as the location did not matter to him. He simply wanted to fight. 

Saul and Lord Egret’s battle had caused the battlefield to escalate wildly. As soon as an Enlighter joined any fray, it had ceased to be an ordinary battle. Many people would not even have the chance to witness an Enlighter’s battle throughout their entire lives. 

Only a minority like Lu Yin would not find such a thing strange, as there had been too many battles between Enlighters during the defense of Ironblood Weave. 

No matter how world-shaking Saul’s battle with Lord Egret may be, it would not affect Sourcepeak Planet as they had moved quite some distance away. 

There was another rumble, and huge cracks began to appear on the floor of the Hall of Insight.

Xi Qi’s expression warped. “Brother Lu, these people are destroying the Hall of Insight!”

Lu Yin feriosly charged forward as his forcefield took on the form of the Towering Tree, its countless branches shooting out to wrap around the many mercenaries. Quite a few cultivators suddenly appeared from all directions, and the most familiar ones to Lu Yin were those from the Umbral Butterfly Tribe, as they were able to absorb the strength of nearby plants. There was also another group that was quite sneaky. They almost looked like demons, and it was quite difficult to discern their physical form. 

“I never thought that the Shadowsword Sect would also join in.” Ku Wei leaped away from where he was standing and raised a finger to point towards an area that was void of people. There was evidently nothing but air, but fresh blood dripped down from his fingertip. The blood did not belong to him, as it was actually from a sword-wielding cultivator. 

Xi Qi was at a loss. “Shadowsword Sect?” 

Ku Wei smiled. “They’re a very famous sword sect from Suna Weave. They’re just as famous as the Moke Sword Sect.”

Lu Yin’s heart sank, as yet another power had appeared. How many powers had Wei Rong actually joined with? 

Suddenly, his pupils shrank, as he saw a terrifying amount of rune lines appear in the sky. This amount was not less than Aden’s, which meant that this new arrival was a peak realm Hunter. 

Lu Yin wanted to call for Aden, but Aden was currently the vanguard covering for everyone, and even worse, the owner of these rune lines was already nearing Lu Yin. 

He didn’t dare be careless, but just as he was about to don his universal armor, he ultimately decided against it. Lu Yin would dodge if he faced a dangerous attack, as he could not rely on the universal armor to protect him for the rest of his life. 

“Brother Lu, let’s head in,” Xi Qi spoke.

Lu Yin did not reply, and the fish atop Xi Qi’s head continuously slapped its tail. “Mount, hurry up and enter. Quickly! Just ignore him.” 

“Why?” Xi Qi was perplexed.

She turned to look at Ku Wei, but he had already vanished.

This fellow’s sensitivity towards danger was not one bit inferior to Lu Yin’s. Although Ku Wei might not be able to see rune lines, he definitely had his own methods, and he had even cast a sympathetic glance at Lu Yin before leaving. 

Lu Yin’s face turned solemn as a bead of sweat rolled down his forehead. “Xi Qi, you head in first. Hurry!” 

Xi Qi acknowledged his words and headed into the Hall of Insight. Before she took more than a few steps in, the rune lines suddenly changed directions to charge towards her, prompting the fish to shout, “Hurry! There’s danger!” 

Xi Qi’s face went white, and she felt as if her entire body had been dunked in an ice bath, her body so cold and numb that she could not even move. It was as if she had been wrapped up by an invisible formless danger and thrown into an inescapable pit of death. 

A longsword extended out from the void in front of Xi Qi, aimed straight at her forehead.

The fish’s entire body went erect, and nobody knew what it intended to do.

At that moment, Lu Yin grabbed Xi Qi and flung her far away as the sword streaked past his cheek. He used the Secret Sidestep Technique to avoid the tip, and then he raised a finger and his eyes slackened: Dream Finger. 

The void congealed as the Dream Finger transcended space to strike an empty spot. In that place, a shadow suddenly appeared, or at least it was something that Lu Yin assumed was a single shadow. Strangely, a second shadow appeared at almost the same time, and the two shadows merged before appearing simultaneously. There were also two longswords, and they were both pointed at Lu Yin. This person’s primary target was in fact Lu Yin. 

Twin Daemons was one of Wei Rong’s backup pieces, as the Shadowsword Sect was worthy of its name as a sect with top-notch experts; it had people who could accomplish feats that not even Enlighters could. The Daemon Slash was a multifaceted battle technique, and while the Dream Finger could deflect one of the swords, the other would definitely take Lu Yin’s life. 

Ever since Wei Rong had found out that Lu Yin was headed towards Sourcepeak Planet, he had studied Lu Yin. From his understanding of Lu Yin, it was uncertain whether or not Twin Daemons would be able to kill Lu Yin since the young cultivator possessed powerful external items that allowed him to fight against Enlighters. But regardless of the ultimate winner, Twin Daemons would definitely at least be able to stall Lu Yin. However, who could have known that Lu Yin would purposefully choose not to rely on his items, which had prompted Twin Daemons into trying to kill this person right now. 

However, both Twin Daemons and Wei Rong had underestimated Lu Yin. They knew that Lu Yin had a secret technique that could divert attacks as well as powerful defensive items to help him withstand attacks, but they did not know about the existence of an attack like the Dream Finger. Lu Yin was not relying on any external objects, which had baited Twin Daemons into carelessness and to mistake the finger as Lu Yin’s secret technique. Also, the twins had no way to dodge the finger, so they had made the decision to endure it and trade attacks since they were confident that their second sword would kill Lu Yin. However, Lu Yin then activated his Yu Secret Art, diverting Twin Daemons’ second sword the moment his Dream Finger struck, causing the sword to merely brush past Lu Yin. 

The Dream Finger forced Twin Daemons to retreat, and half of their body turned numb, and they even began to split apart as blood stained their clothing. 

The twins spat out mouthfuls of blood and then vanished by escaping into the void. They had been severely injured, as this finger had been much more terrifying than what they could have ever imagined, as it contained an inexplicable might and an incomprehensible destructive power. 

Nearby, Xi Qi watched the Hunter flee, dumbfounded.

Some distance away, Ku Wei frowned; that had been an extremely terrifying attack. This fellow’s strength was scary, and it looked like it would be quite difficult if he wanted to seize the Yu Secret Art.

Rejoicing, Lu Yin exhaled and surveyed his surroundings. The Dream Finger was his trump card, and he had not wanted to reveal it just yet, as it would cause him to be targeted, just like when he still had the gun. The news would make it difficult for him to defeat powerhouses in future. However, he felt like an idiot when he realized that quite a few people had just witnessed his Dream Finger, including Xi Qi and Ku Wei. He also felt a little helpless, as he could not always silence everybody who witnessed his fights. 

Although Twin Daemons had only been severely injured by his Dream Finger, the twins’ rune lines had not decreased by much, and the Hunter was still lingering in the area.

They had thought that, by turning themselves into a demon, nobody would be able to see them. However, Lu Yin knew the twins’ position—it was just that he could not strike at them. 

Just like back in Ironblood Weave, those Enlighter realm beasts had been able to preserve their lives by escaping into the void. Even though Lu Yin’s gun had been able to kill Enlighter realm beasts, it had been useless when it could not hit them. 

At that moment, a Lockbreaker ran out from the Hall of Insight and shouted in a daze, “The treasury’s been looted! The Society’s treasures that have been protected for countless years are gone!” 

“Be careful!” Xi Qi shouted.

That Lockbreaker stood there, frozen in place, as a powerful beam pierced through his body. From behind him, dozens of mercenaries charged out of the Hall of Insight together.

Lu Yin’s heart sank, as he had still arrived too late. These people had made prior arrangements, and they had definitely been planning to loot the society’s collection from the very beginning. The only plan that Lu Yin could come up with was to seal off the entire Hall of Insight, but that was not very realistic. There were annoying enemies in front of him as well as Enlighters above the planet. No matter what, the opponents would be able to safely retreat.

With a loud crack, a corner of the Hall of Insight began to crumble.

From a distance, numerous people watched on as the Hall of Insight trembled and started to collapse. Wei Rong placed his right hand around Angie’s waist. “Isn’t it beautiful?”

Angie could feel Wei Rong’s masculine aura, and her heart warmed as she nodded. “Yes, it is.”

Wei Rong smiled. “There will be many more such beautiful scenes in the future. You will never feel lonely for your entire life.” 

Angie’s gaze became splendid, and she glanced at Wei Rong as she quietly acknowledged his comment. 

Wei Rong’s lips quirked up. Angie was the Umbral Butterfly Tribe’s young mistress, and the Umbral Butterfly Tribe was very important for his plans since they had unified all of Umbral Butterfly Weave. 

Behind them, Ah Mu’s expression turned complicated. Seventh Bro had already entered the Hall of Insight to reinforce it, but this outcome had still occurred. Everything was being controlled by the man in front of Ah Mu, and they all could only surrender to their fate of being manipulated by this person. His intelligence was truly fearsome. 

The Hall of Insight started collapsing even faster, despite the many Lockbreakers fighting to preserve it. In spite of their efforts, it completely collapsed under countless grieving eyes, and the four great trees that had held up the Outerverse Lockbreaker Society for countless years crumpled to the ground.
