Chapter 2819: True God Guard

Boom!

Lu Yin felt as though he had just struck an immovable object, and it felt as though his arm was about to shatter. He was forced back, just like Mu Ke.

There was no time to consider what had happened, so Lu Yin immediately pulled out the slipper and swung it.

With a snap, the slipper attacked. Lu Yin could see that it caused the sequence particles to ripple, which made Corpse God wary. He pulled his arm back.

Both Lu Yin and Mu Ke had been forced back, and they both spat out blood.

This was terrifying, but it was the power of Corpse God’s punch.

While Mu Ke's saber was truly powerful, he was not able to endure Corpse God’s punch if his blade missed.

Corpse God stared at Lu Yin. "Hand me your cosmic ring."

As he spoke, the Skygod’s hand fell again, covered with a rising number of sequence particles. This attack was even more overwhelming than the last punch.

Lu Yin gritted his teeth. What a monstrous opponent.

"Pull back." Mu Ke pulled Lu Yin backwards, then spun around and stabbed at Corpse God.

Xu Wuwei, Mr. Daheng, Bureau Director Gan, and the other peak powerhouses all attacked Corpse God at the same time, enduring the incoming attacks of the Progenitor-level corpse kings. Corpse God was the greatest threat, and if he was allowed to roam free, he would kill everyone, one by one.

Lu Yin gasped.

How much time had passed since True God Wei Yi first appeared? Already, Lu Yin had almost died twice. Forgotten Ruins God had been absolutely right; this was indeed the highest stage. Lu Yin’s various abilities and tools, such as the Investiture of the Gods and the slipper, barely allowed him to stand on the same level as a peak powerhouse. However, he was still a very, very long way away from being able to truly participate at this level. He had a very long way to go still.

"Something’s not right." Despite Mu ke’s blindfold, he seemed fully capable of seeing.

Lu Yin let out a long breath. "You are my senior disciple brother, aren’t you?"

Mu Ke frowned. "The True God Guard is here, but their captains are not."

Lu Yin was very confused.

Battles had erupted in every direction. The fights that involved Lord Xu, Great Elder Shan Gu, and other peak powerhouses all involved sequence particles. And right in front of Lu Yin, a large number of peak powerhouses were attacking Corpse God, only for all of them to still be overpowered by the lone Aeternal.

"Senior Brother, Senior Xu Wuwei and the others aren’t able to hold on any longer," Lu Yin said.

Xu Wuwei had also reached the level of controlling sequence particles, but his mastery was far inferior to Corpse God’s. His Spiral Domain was completely unable to hurt Corpse God at all.

He finally understood why Xu Wuwei had been so reluctant to go to the Endless Frontier. It was possible that even Xu Wuwei might not be able to survive a confrontation against one of the Seven Skygods. If not for the tea ceremony suddenly being attacked, the Void Suprema might have fled long ago.

Mu Ke clenched the hilt of his saber. "Observe the battlefield and think about how to alter the balance. There is a meaning for everyone’s existence, and there is a purpose for every battle.

"This massive battle was launched too abruptly, and if the captains of the True God Guard are not here, then something must be wrong."

Lu Yin suppressed his first impulses. "What is the True God Guard?"

Mu Ke slowly lifted his saber, looking as though he was contemplating where to strike. "Ten corpse kings form a team, while a hundred corpse kings form a full battalion. This is the True God Guard. There’s a captain for every ten corpse kings. They are able to fight at my level with the help of divine energy, making them second only to the Seven Skygods. However, while the True God Guard is here, none of its captains are. That is a problem, and this may not be the only place that has been attacked at this moment."

As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Ke disappeared. When he reappeared, he was already behind Corpse God, unleashing a direct attack.

Corpse God bent his left arm and slammed it down with an incredible amount of force. His flesh was sliced away, revealing his bones, but Mu Ke’s blade also shattered during the attack.

Lu Yin's scalp went numb. He wanted to immediately leave and return to the Origin Universe.

While everything was pure speculation, if it proved true, then how could the Origin Universe endure an assault from the Aeternals?

Before leaving for the tea ceremony, Lu Yin had left a few back-ups behind in the Heavens Sect as a precaution, but there was no way that those precautions were enough to stop Aeternus.

Lu Yin gritted his teeth. He had wanted to wait until he became a Semi-Progenitor and brought his Lu family back before forcing an investigation into Sovereign Shao Yin. This man was one of the Cyclic Universe’s Three Sovereigns, which placed him just below the Great Sovereign herself. Unfortunately, waiting meant that Lu Yin was already too late.

Sovereign Shao Yin turned his head to glance at Lu Yin again, and killing intent blazed in the Sovereign’s eyes. Could the brat have guessed the truth?

...

In the Origin Universe, a person stepped out in the Perennial World’s Higher Realm, just in front of the Celestial Frost Sect’s main gate. His slitted scarlet eyes looked at the gate for a moment before he struck out with a palm.

Aeternus was not able to invade the Origin Universe en masse, as they needed to first pass through the rear battlefield. However, their Progenitor-level experts were able to enter freely, as long as there was a coordinate seal.

In the past, the presence of Bai Wangyuan and the other Progenitors meant that the Aeternals had to avoid invading in this manner, but that was no longer an issue.

As the Progenitor-level corpse king’s palm fell, the Celestial Frost Sect’s gate shattered, and countless screams rang out within the sect.

Bai Qi raised her head and screamed, "Corpse king! A Progenitor-level corpse king-"

The corpse king looked down from high above, its arm raised high as it tore the void open. When another palm strike fell, the entire Celestial Frost Sect shook.

The clouds in the sky above the sect suddenly gathered and blocked the attack. A gentle white light tried to push the monster away.

More Progenitor-level corpse kings attacked Shenwu’s Sky, the Wang family, and Dragon Mountain.

Wang Jian stepped out of the Dominion Realm. He was another one of the Wang family’s Progenitors, and after Wang Fan’s shadow clone, Specter Progenitor, had been ordered to help protect the Sixverse Association, Wang Jian had been left behind. At this moment, he was the only remaining Progenitor in the Perennial World. The only other beings with that level of strength were the Divine Eagle and the Python Ancestor.

Dragon Mountain cracked. The Progenitor-level corpse king seemed to have entered a killing spree. It waved a hand, massacring all that it saw.

Long Ke roared as slitted scarlet eyes appeared in front of him. A moment later, his body was nothing but ash. Even at the moment of his death, the man had never considered that he would die to a corpse king on Dragon Mountain itself.

Long Tian's eyes blazed red as he charged at the Progenitor-level corpse king, only to be held back by Long Laogui. "Don't be reckless. That’s a Progenitor-level corpse king."

Grand Elder Ni Huang released his inner world, and a green dragon appeared, slamming into the corpse king. However, the jiao’s tail was ripped off by the corpse king, and it let out a miserable howl. Ni Huang regretted keeping his clan in the Higher Realm. They should have descended to the Lower Realm where they would have been under the Python Ancestor’s protection. Who would dare to attack the White Dragon Clan in such a situation? The man deeply regretted his decision!

Dragon Mountain looked like hell.

Right before everything was destroyed, Long Xi threw out Progenitor Long’s strange eye. "Grand Elder!"

Ni Huang stared blankly at the strange eye. What is this?

The corpse king tore at Ni Huang with its claws, and the man stopped hesitating. He opened his mouth to swallow the eye, and at the same time, he roared at the sky.

The entire Higher Realm of the Perennial World was being attacked by Progenitor-level corpse kings, but the Origin Universe’s true battlefield was in the Fifth Mainland, at the Heavens Sect.

At the exact same moment that True God Wei Yi attacked the Great Sovereign's tea ceremony, humanoid figures tore through the void to arrive just outside the Heavens Sect, brimming with a bloodthirst aura.

Mu Xie and the Heavens Sect’s Progenitors stepped out from the sect, looking ahead in shock at the sight of ten Progenitor-level corpse kings.

Arch-Elder Zen was stunned. "Where did so many of them come from?"

Cloudflow's face turned pale. He had fought against Aeternus before, and he struggled against even one Progenitor-level corpse king. Seeing ten such monsters was terrifying.

Leng Qing clenched the hilt of his saber, Master Shan took a deep breath, Chen Le gritted his teeth, and Monarch Xing grew incredibly solemn.
