Chapter 901: Crossing Lavazones

Chapter 837: Crossing Lavazones

Yan Cheng watched as the fatty left. He then turned to Autumnfrost Qing and gently said, “You have also heard my words, so I hope that you won’t make things difficult for him any longer.” 

Autumnfrost Qing smiled. “Thank you for your assistance, Senior. This person no longer holds any importance in my eyes, so I will not do anything else to him.”

He then looked at Yan Xiaojing, ravenously scanning her entire body. This woman would soon be his. 

The various reinforcements from the Outerverse reached Endless Weave’s border one after another, and the six Lavazones reorganized their defenses with their bolstered forces. 

The Ironblood Lavazone convened a strategy meeting, and Lu Yin was invited to participate. 

Whether it was his strength or his status, Lu Yin absolutely qualified to attend this meeting. It had been quite some time since he had been that puny little cultivator in Ironblood Weave. 

The Ironblood Lavazone had two Enlighters at the moment, and they were Commander Commander Zhang and Yuehua Mavis. Aside from the two Enlighters, the area was also defended by more than thirty Hunters. 

Only those with the strength of a Hunter qualified to join the meeting. Naturally, Aden and Wendy Yushan had also been invited, as they had the power to fight against Hunters. 

Lu Yin’s ranking placed him second only to Commander Zhang and Yuehua Mavis, and nobody dared to object to such treatment, especially since he had killed an enemy Enlighter the moment he set foot on the battlefield. His actions had already shocked the entire Ironblood Lavazone. 

Dozens of Hunters sat below and watched on as Lu Yin sat down in a position that placed him second only to Yuehua Mavis, all of them internally astounded. This person was a legend in the universe, and he had probably killed more Enlighters than even their commander. 

Lu Yin’s gaze swept across all those gathered, and he involuntarily sighed. If all these people were at his disposal, then the Great Eastern Alliance would be able to sweep through the central region of the Outerverse uncontested. 

This was just one of the six lavazones, and at this moment, the full strength of the entire Outerverse had been brought to bear on defending Endless Weave’s border. 

The strategy meeting was simple, as it was actually just to assign the gathered powerhouses to their respective areas of the lavazone. The entire defensive line spanned the full width of Endless Weave, going from east and west. Aside from the six Lavazones, there was also the dark lava mainland in the middle of the weave that required defenders from all six lavazones to protect it. 

However, there were rules to follow for everything. Thus, everything would be fine as long as the defenders followed the previously made arrangements. 

“At this moment, the most crucial section to cover is the Tri-Platform Lavazone that recently fell. The remaining dark lava will not be enough to cover the area, so more must be sent over. Everyone, who is able to take on this mission?” Commander Zhang asked as he ran his eyes across everyone gathered. 

He and Yuehua Mavis were not able to move, especially not Yuehua Mavis, who held the responsibility to defend the lavazone against Imprinters. 

Everyone involuntarily looked at Lu Yin, as he was the only one out of everyone at the meeting who had enough strength to accomplish the necessary task. 

It was extremely dangerous to cross between Lavazones, as one could encounter all sorts of attacks. The Technocracy had become intimately familiar with the Humain Domain’s defenses after all this time, and they had implemented all sorts of methods to isolate the six Lavazones from each other so that they could not support one another. Hence, anytime someone wanted to travel to another Lavazone, they would have to face the Technocracy’s full efforts to stop them. 

“I’ll go,” Aden offered. From the moment he had entered the battlefield, he had held back the assaults of multiple peak Hunters from the Sixth Mainland, and his strength was close to the top. He had even held back an Enlighter.

Commander Zhang shook his head. “Only an Enlighter can cross the lavazones. The Technocracy will not target cultivators who are simply guarding one of the dark lava mainlands, but they will absolutely focus down any cultivator attempting to traverse the lavazones. It will be an extremely perilous journey, and one cannot rely solely on defensive measures.” 

He then looked over at Lu Yin. “Alliance Leader Lu, can you assume this responsibility?”

Lu Yin did not refuse the commander. “Alright.”

Commander Zhang expressed his gratitude, “Thank you, Alliance Leader Lu.” 

There were some people whom the commander could order about, and there were others he could not. As a mentor at Astral-9, Commander Zhang understood this concept. Also, Lu Yin was someone from Astral-10, and there had always been a bit of competition between the two academy branches despite them being from the same academy. He also had a favorable impression of Lu Yin, as Lu Yin had saved Liu Yin and the others. 

If possible, Commander Zhang did not want to send Lu Yin out for this journey, but there truly were no other candidates. The Tri-Platform Lavazone lacked enough dark lava to maintain their defensive line, which meant that it would not be able to stop the Technocracy from spying on them. This would in turn expose the entire Endless Weave to the Technocracy’s probes, which would be very disadvantageous for the defenders. 

“This is a reality of war. The existence of war itself means that there are multiple parties that cannot coexist, and thus, sacrifices must be made, even if they are commanders such as myself. This position has already changed hands dozens of times, and this is actually quite normal. Thus, I wish for all of us to abandon any past grievances that may have existed between us in the past and unite as one. We must protect the Ironblood Lavazone and defend the Human Domain,” Commander Zhang loudly spoke as he stood up. 

Everyone stood up likewise. “To die without regrets.” 

The phrase “to die without regrets” was not merely some words being spoken; over countless years, this border had become the resting place for innumerable corpses. Participating in the border defense was not something done to obtain honor, but rather to protect humanity. 

This was the most basic understanding that everyone held. 

Lu Yin was no different, and no matter how much danger he might face in this mission, he knew that he had to complete the transport mission that he had been given. 

Commander Zhang passed ten cosmic rings to Lu Yin, each one with a capacity that was no smaller than Lu Yin’s own ring. In other words, each ring was able to store ten mountain ranges. Ten cosmic rings meant that he would be able to transport enough dark lava to equal ten mountain ranges. 

“This is just what we are responsible for transporting, as the other Lavazones will also send over some dark lava as well. Altogether, there should be enough to completely replenish what the Tri-Platform Lavazone has lost,” Commander Zhang explained. 

Lu Yin nodded, bade farewell to Aden and Wendy Yushan, and then vanished with a flash. He entered the mainland formed from dark lava and headed towards the Honor Lavazone, since the Tri-Platform Lavazone lay to the west of the Honor Lavazone. 

He only needed to deliver the ten cosmic rings to the Honor Lavazone, as the Honor Lavazone would send someone to deliver them the rest of the way to the Tri-Platform Lavazone. There was no need for Lu Yin to travel all the way to the Tri-Platform Lavazone by himself. 

There was a vast distance between the Ironblood Lavazone and the Honor Lavazone since the six lavazones had been established by dividing the border between Endless Weave and the Technocracy into equal portions. Thus, Lu Yin essentially had to cross a sixth of the width of the weave, which was about the length of a filament. 

If he had to travel by flying with his own power, it would take him a tremendous amount of time. Lu Yin was not able to traverse these long distances as quickly as an Enlighter could, but fortunately, there were wormholes along the defensive line, and he could use them to shave off a large portion of the journey.

Lu Yin left the Ironblood Lavazone and flew towards the first wormhole.

His movements were immediately detected by the Technocracy, as they were constantly on high alert for anyone trying to travel between the lavazones. One of their chief goals was to put a complete halt to any form of cooperation between the lavazones.

As for the wormholes, the Technocracy frequently destroyed them, causing their locations to change just as frequently. 

His figure flashed, and Lu Yin advanced at top speed while keeping close to the surface of the dark lava. After traveling for several hours, he was finally drawing close to the wormhole.

He would occasionally come across Technocracy troops patrolling the dark lava, and as soon as these troops discovered an enemy, they would launch an attack in response. 

All around Lu Yin was darkness, as he was exposed to the vastness of the universe. 

As Lu Yin drew closer to the wormhole, he looked up from time to time. Luckily, he had not encountered any attacks during his journey so far, and when he suddenly saw the wormhole appear in front of him, he leaped through. 

Only space-exploring powerhouses were able to traverse a wormhole with their physical body. Lu Yin could feel space tearing at his body, but it only left a slightly numb feeling with no other side effects. 

His body grew lighter, and the scenery quickly changed before his eyes. He had arrived at the wormhole in the Honor Lavazone.

Suddenly, light beams swept across the wormhole from high above, each one of them with rune lines approaching those of a peak Hunter. Surprisingly, Lu Yin even noticed some covert rune lines at the level of an Enlighter hidden among them. These rune lines were not from a beam of light, but were instead following the falling light beams. 

If not for the rune lines, Lu Yin would not have noticed the Enlighter level attack at all. 

He easily dodged the light beams, and out of the corner of his eyes, he observed the Enlighter’s rune lines approach him. 

The light beams blasted into the dark lava, grabbing the attention of the nearby defenders. 

Lu Yin barked, “Don’t come over!” The next moment, a strange, palm-sized mechanical android opened its mechanical wings as it rushed towards Lu Yin. There was no trace of its passage through space, and its speed was startlingly fast; it was moving entirely through the void. 

Lu Yin suddenly shivered before quickly donning his universal armor. He then raised the Backlash Pearl towards the palm-sized android. This small powerhouse had not expected to be discovered by Lu Yin so quickly, and the tiny body was like a meteor as it heavily slammed into the Backlash Pearl. After that, a similar force surged out from the Backlash Pearl and sent the android flying away. 

The number of rune lines coming from the tiny powerhouse dropped significantly, as it only possessed the strength to launch a single attack. 

Lu Yin felt puzzled, and he quickly reached over. At this moment, the tiny android’s rune lines had dwindled to the point where they were only a match for an Explorer. But even then, they continued to plummet. 

However, just as Lu Yin was about to grab the android, it suddenly exploded into a cloud of metal dust. 

The soldiers rushed over at the first opportunity, and their leader was a middle-aged Hunter. They quickly surrounded Lu Yin. 

“Who are you?” 

Lu Yin explained his identity, and the Hunter adjusted his expression. “So you’re a powerhouse from the Ironblood Lavazone, and you crossed the lavazone to get here?” 

Lu Yin nodded. He then crouched down to observe the wreckage of the tiny android that was still flickering with sparks. He picked up a chip that had been largely burned and studied it with a strange expression. 

The Hunter didn’t dare disturb Lu Yin any further, and he quickly led the troops away. His eyes showed his respect for Lu Yin. 

Crossing the lavazones was something that the Technocracy considered taboo, and they were determined to kill anyone who dared to make such an attempt. This was part of their efforts to prevent the various lavazones from cooperating with each other. 

If the defenders wanted to contact each other, then they generally had to take the long route and travel through the interior region of Endless Weave. Most could not travel along the path of dark lava. 

Lu Yin had dared to directly cross between Lavazones, which was an accomplishment that deserved respect from those who were stationed at the border warfront all year round. 

Lu Yin tossed the burned chip aside as he could not understand it. He then nodded to the Hunter and quickly sped towards the Honor Lavazone. 

He was only a few hours of travel away from the Honor Lavazone, which was very close.

At this time, the Honor Lavazone was in the midst of an intense battle.

Although Mojiang Shan was unable to participate in this battle due to being burned by the Dark Phoenix family’s ancestor, the Bloodburn Realm had other powerhouses. Besides Imprinters, they also had numerous terrifying experts with power levels of 200,000, 300,000, and even over 400,000.

The space in the Honor Lavazone was collapsing, and blackholes of various sizes began to devour one another as they swelled in size. 

Commander Da Gu and the supporting Enlighter, Mr. Tradeo, had painted the sky with blood. This battle had been very arduous so far, and another Enlighter from the Hall of Honor had joined the initial two in the lavazone to help defend against the assault. The three of them had joined forces, but they were still teetering on the edge of collapse. 

On the Honor Lavazone’s mainland, there were countless androids crazily firing light beam after light beam that swept across the surface as they tried to completely eradicate the dark lava. 

Zi Rong was facing a powerful enemy, Mojiang Xiao, who was a direct descendant of the Mojiang bloodline. Although this Sixth Mainland cultivator was just a Cruiser whose power level was only around 80,000, that was only accurate under normal circumstances. Mojiang Xiao had received an imprint from Ancestor Mojiang, and he was adept in both the Mojiang bloodline and battle techniques. On top of that, he was also using a power vessel, which allowed him to wage a fierce battle with Zi Rong. 

Zi Rong was a Hunter with a power level of 150,000, and his Battalion Slash was powerful enough to even threaten Enlighters. However, he was still being occupied by Mojiang Xiao in this battle. 

Mojiang Xiao reminded Zi Rong of Lu Yin, who was similarly a genius with amazing talent. 

In another area of the Honor Lavazone, Zi Xue was fighting against a young girl from the Mojiang bloodline, who giggled as she left multiple injuries all over Zi Xue’s body. Her hook-shaped weapon was coated with poison, and she stared coldly at Zi Xue. “With the next attack, I will tear apart that beautiful face of yours. Let’s see if any man will still like you after that!”

Then, the hook-shaped weapon blossomed with a cold, dark-brown radiance. The girl dripped some of her own blood onto the weapon, and the dark-brown light became even more radiant.
