Chapter 2153: Spatial Memory

Chapter 2100: Spatial Memory

Lu Yin raised his left arm as Sky Garan slashed down yet again. The man did not alter his attacks in any way, as he believed that Lu Yin was vulnerable to attacks, aside from his chains. Besides, the erased time ensured that it was impossible for Lu Yin to evade.

The blade struck the white shield on Lu Yin’s left arm, and his eyes went wide. He had finally recognized this feeling, and it was no wonder why it felt familiar. Sky Garan was not actually using the power of time, but rather that of space. Lu Yin did not understand just how Sky Garan had managed to copy Chu Yuan’s attacks that erased moments of time, but Lu Yin was absolutely confident that Sky Garan was not using time, even if the final result was the same.

The Arkfish suddenly appeared behind Sky Garan, and he raised a hand and released a palm strike.

This time, not only was Chu Yuan's visualization method copied, but even Lu Yin's Hollow Palm. Sky Garan was using two people's techniques at the same time, and everyone was completely dumbfounded by the sight.

Not even Chu Yuan and Heluo Mavis could understand what they were seeing. Was this the ability of the Eight Star innate gift? Just what was its power?

Lu Yin was knocked back by the Hollow Palm, and Sky Garan raised his blade upwards yet again. The previous chop had been stopped by the shield on Lu Yin’s left arm, so this time, the blade was aimed at Lu Yin's head.

Lu Yin raised his head, and an astral chessboard appeared beneath his feet. This was the Ce Secret Art.

Sky Garan’s blade fell, and time was erased. It was impossible to dodge or avoid this attack.

However, before the blade dropped, Sky Garan coughed up blood. Some mysterious and unknown force tore his body apart, and he was thrown back.

No one could understand what had just happened, including even Semi-Progenitors like Lu Buzheng. This was because there was no one present aside from Hen Xin who understood the power at play.

Hen Xin instantly grew solemn. "The power of space."

Ni Huang felt puzzled. "What’s the power of space?"

Before Hen Xin could explain, Lu Yin spoke up from down in the plaza. "So is this the ability of your family’s Eight Star Garan? This is basically spatial memory. Your innate gift allows you to recall everything that’s happened within the space around you, including even battle techniques, innate gifts, and power vessels. Anything in those memories can be replicated. This really is an incredible innate gift, and anyone who hasn’t comprehended the power of space can only wait to die."

Sky Garan stared at Lu Yin in disbelief. Blood dripped from the man’s mouth, half of his body had been shattered, and even his hair was left a mess. "Can you actually see through my innate gift? You’ve comprehended the power of space?"

Lu Yin let out a breath. He had learned the Ce Secret Art and comprehended its Board Manipulation ability, which used the power of space.

In truth, the Garan family’s innate gift was truly powerful, and their ability to access spatial memory allowed them to use the powers of any powerful enemy nearby, including even the ability to control time. Unfortunately, Sky Garan was facing Lu Yin.

If Lu Yin had not managed to comprehend a bit of the concept of space through the Ce Secret Art, he would have most likely never seen through this innate gift, and then he would have been forced to try to either use the God of Death Transformation to overpower Sky Garan or Extremes Must Be Reversed to tank the attacks. The fight with Sky Garan would have become the same as Lu Yin’s fight against Chu Yuan.

The Garan family had ruled the Sixth Mainland for eons, and it was not that their Eight Star Garan innate gift had never been seen through during that time. Rather, any who had managed to see through the innate gift had never been given the opportunity to reveal anything. The Garan family’s overwhelming strength was not solely dependent on their innate gift.????r????e????????????????o????????????. ????oｍ

Given the new era he lived in, Sky Garan had fully believed that he would eventually become a Dao Monarch. While Chu Yuan was capable of wielding the mighty power of time, Sky Garan was able to counter that with his Eight Star innate gift. Chu Yuan’s ability to see through battle techniques did not apply to innate gifts, so that advantage could also be ignored. As for Heluo Mavis, even if she relied on the practically immortal abilities of her Mavis family, at best she could remain undefeated, but she would never be able to defeat Sky Garan.

After all, the Eight Star innate gift could tap into Heluo Mavis's abilities through the spatial memory, just like how Sky Garan was able to use the power of time against Chu Yuan. With his innate gift combined with the unique power of the Garan family, Sky Garan had believed himself to be truly invincible.

How could he have imagined that Lu Yin would be able to see through such a miraculous innate gift after just a few attacks?

Lu Yin shook his head. Truthfully, Sky Garan was simply unlucky. Without Lu Yin’s presence, no one from the same generation would be able to see through the Eight Star innate gift, and even if they managed to do so, it would be practically impossible for them to do anything about such an ability. However, it turned out that Lu Yin just happened to perfectly counter Sky Garan’s innate gift. Whenever spatial memory was used to launch an attack, Lu Yin could simply revert space to its previous state, and that would break Sky Garan’s attacks and leave him suffering a backlash from space itself.

Truly, the man had terrible luck.

Sky Garan coughed up more blood. "Even if people are able to understand the ability of our Eight-Star innate gift, it’s impossible to defeat me without being able to control space. Just what sort of spatial ability have you mastered?"

As he spoke the man’s expression grew increasingly bitter.

Lu Yin's eyes flickered. "Figure it out yourself."

The chains of death energy shot forward, grabbed hold of Sky Garan, and then tossed him into the air. The man was bound by the chains as Lu Yin raised his right arm and threw his spear. It stabbed through Sky Garan's right shoulder and pinned him to the wall of the plaza.

The first of the former Dao Chosen had been eliminated.

Sky Garan had been too badly injured by the spatial backlash, and he was thus unable to mount any resistance at all.

Lu Yin not only wanted to become the Dao Chosen, but he also wanted to prove himself. The people from the Heavens Sect era looked down on the modern era, and although Lu Yin could not deny that the modern era was greatly inferior to the Heavens Sect, that did not mean that there was no one with outstanding talent in the current era. Lu Yin wanted to prove himself to be an elite who stood tall regardless of the era.

Chu Yuan stared at Lu Yin. The man had become more serious than ever before regarding Lu Yin.

Lu Yin looked over. "Time to keep going. Now, it’s your turn."

Chu Yuan shook his head. "My current strength isn’t enough to defeat you."

Heluo Mavis stared at Chu Yuan. "Do you want to surrender?"

Chu Yuan took a deep breath, and then he looked up to stare at Lu Yin. "I am the only Dao Chosen to be acknowledged by the Origin Progenitor himself during the Heavens Sect era. In addition to receiving the Origin Progenitor’s Sutra, I also received a secret technique from him. Brother Lu, if you can defeat this secret technique, then the position of Dao Chosen is yours, and I will readily acknowledge your qualifications."

Chu Yuan then stepped forward with his right foot. As he moved, his entire body became distorted for a moment, and then all color disappeared, and he turned gray.

Lu Yin's expression changed when he saw this gray. This was not a good color to see. The first time he had seen this color, it had been when Blackless God had appeared. Every time Lu Yin met with Mister Mu and all of space had frozen, it had also been this gray color. It seemed that this color was indicative of something very specific.

More importantly, the secret technique that Chu Yuan was preparing to use was one that he had directly received from the Origin Progenitor himself. Chu Yuan had been able to see the Origin Progenitor due to his ability to control the power of time, so it was highly likely that this secret technique would be connected to the usage of time.

"What secret technique?" Heluo Mavis asked. She has been paying attention to Chu Yuan from the moment she had awoken in the current era, but despite how well she knew him, he always seemed to have something more hidden.

Chu Yuan looked over at Heluo Mavis. "I’m sorry, but you’ll have to deal with him on your own for now. I need to step away from this fight for a bit."

He then slowly raised his blade and pointed it at Lu Yin before slashing downwards.

This was blatant antagonism, and Lu Yin arched a brow. Once again, Lu Yin had shown that he had caught up to Chu Yuan’s level of power. It had to be admitted that Chu Yuan was incredibly powerful. He had spiritual force that had been tempered by the Origin Sutra, a battle technique that allowed him to be able to see through any other battle technique, a formless and invisible energy that acted as a defensive barrier, exquisite swordsmanship, an overbearing blade technique, an innate gift of multiplication, and even the ability to erase time itself. However, despite all of these impressive abilities, Chu Yuan retained a critical flaw: he simply did not possess any attacks destructive enough to compare to his peers.

Many of Chu Yuan’s abilities were defensively focused. While his innate gift of multiplication was able to boost his sword skills or his blade attacks, they only barely managed to reach the same level of power as the other Dao Chosens’. The ability to control time was what allowed Chu Yuan to truly stand above the other Dao Chosens, as regardless of how bad of a situation he found himself in, he would always be able to retreat safely. Still, Chu Yuan had come from an ordinary family, and he did not possess a power that could compare to what the Garan family wielded, or to the destructive power of death energy. In the end, Chu Yuan’s source of power was simply inherently inferior.

It was possible that this was part of the reason why the Origin Progenitor had accepted Chu Yuan. Reaching such a level of power despite being born to a common family was impressive. While Chu Yuan was absolutely amazingly talented, he lacked the brute force to overwhelm his foes.

After all, if he did possess such strength, he would have never bothered fighting against Lu Yin and Heluo Mavis in the Daosource Sect ruins.

Each of the Six Mainlands’ Dao Chosen had their own strengths and weaknesses, and unfortunately, despite his numerous advantages, Chu Yuan simply lacked destructive power.

Lu Yin was not particularly concerned by Chu Yuan’s attack, as even when Sky Garan had reproduced this same attack and strengthened it with the Garan family’s unique power, he had still needed three attacks to cut through just one of Lu Yin’s chains, and Chu Yuan lacked that same strength.

In that case, why was using this attack at this time?

Everyone watched curiously.

Chu Yuan's blade fell, and an image of the blade remained in the air in front of him. However, this slash did not move, but remained frozen in place. The blade dropped a second time, and the frozen slashes practically overlapped. However, if one looked carefully, it was possible to see that the second slash was a hair lower than the first slash. This continued a third time, a fourth, and a fifth. Each frozen slash stacked onto the others already in place.

"He’s merging his attacks by using a frozen point in time as a point of reference to allow all of the attacks to erupt simultaneously and reinforce each other." Destina finally spoke, and her melodious voice filled the Heavens Sect.

Everyone who heard her explanation found it unbelievable. Was such a thing truly possible?

Lu Yin automatically lashed out with a palm strike, as he wanted to interrupt Chu Yuan's preparation. However, the Hollow Palm passed right through where Chu Yuan was standing, bypassing the man. The attack was not dodged or avoided; rather, it simply phased right through his body.

Lu Yin could not believe his eyes, so he threw out one of his chains in an attempt to capture Chu Yuan and pull him over, but the chain of death energy also phased through Chu Yuan’s body.

All efforts were useless. It was as though Chu Yuan was in a different time and space. This was yet another aspect of the power of time.

Outside the solar system, Wu Da stared at Chu Yuan as though seeing a monster. Was it actually possible to manipulate time in such a fashion? This was too ridiculous!

"Boss, tell me, can Lu Yin still win?" The woman in Wu Da’s group was frightened by what they were seeing. No one was underestimating Lu Yin now, but Chu Yuan's technique was simply too terrifying.

Even though Chu Yuan’s raw destructive power was not at the same standard as the Garan family's unique power or death energy, he was not that far behind. The most important detail that everyone could see was that he was not limited to stacking just five slashes with this technique; in the blink of an eye, ten attacks had already been stacked. Just how powerful would an attack that fused five of Chu Yuan’s blade slashes together be? No one wanted to even consider it.

Sky Garan was still pinned to the side of the plaza, and he stared at Chu Yuan in shock. This was clearly Chu Yuan’s final trump card. It was no wonder why he had managed to defeat Wu Ji, who had been regarded as the most likely person to become the First Mainland’s Dao Chosen.

Heluo Mavis was also staring at Chu Yuan. "This is the attack that killed Wu Ji…"

Chu Yuan said nothing, and he focused entirely on swinging his blade.

"No, you said that you got this secret technique from the Origin Progenitor, and you hadn’t met him yet when you fought against Wu Ji in the Dao Chosen selection. The strength that you showed before wouldn’t have been enough to defeat Wu Ji, and yet you still beat him. If this really is the attack that killed Wu Ji, then you didn’t get this secret technique from the Origin Progenitor."

Chu Yuan hesitated for a brief moment before he resumed slashing his blade down.

It did not actually matter whether Chu Yuan was honest in where he had acquired this secret technique. The only thing that seemed readily apparent was that no one could survive this stacked attack. Already, twenty seven slashes had been stacked together. Forget Lu Yin’s God of Death Transformation, this fused attack could tear even Extremes Must Be Reversed apart.

Chu Yuan had always kept his strength hidden. He actually possessed the power to overcome Lu Yin’s Extremes Must Be Reversed on his own, but he had still suggested cooperating with Sky Garan and Heluo Mavis.

Lu Yin looked over at the ever increasing number of runes that were gathering at the frozen slashes of Chu Yuan’s blade. It was a terrifying sight, as the number already surpassed anything that Sky Garan had ever achieved, but the runes were only continuing to increase.
