Chapter 2854: Found It

Lu Yin understood. It was no wonder why Big Sis had gotten so angry whenever Ce Wangtian was mentioned. Even without Big Sis's fierce temper, being kicked out of the tree by Ce Wangtian would make even a mild-mannered person furious. Moreover, where had Ce Wangtian kicked Big Sis?

Lu Yin glanced at Big Sis.

Big Sis gritted her teeth, still lost in her anger towards Ce Wangtian. She had to chase that bastard to the Immemorial Citadel so that she could flay him.

"Then, what about the Yōu Secret Art? What's the deal with that?"

"That was a back-up I left behind. I left it behind before going to the war in the Third Mainland. That was to avoid dying on the battlefield."

"Smart."

"Of course."

"Big Sis, is Ce Wangtian very powerful?" Lu Yin asked.

Big Sis clenched a fist. "While I really don't want to admit it, that bastard is beyond shameless and extremely insidious. The strength that he’s revealed so far is absolutely not his true power, or else he would have never been able to kick me down. At that time, everyone was on guard against each other, and there was no way I would have trusted him, but he was still able to kick me off.”

Lu Yin understood that Ce Wangtian was a very cunning person.

"Why did you want to go to the Immemorial Citadel in the first place?" Lu Yin asked.

Big Sis frowned, but took a moment to think about it. "The Origin Progenitor once said that the Immemorial Citadel has a path that contains the power to rise above the Progenitor realm."

Lu Yin’s eyes grew wide. "The power to rise above the Progenitor realm?"

Big Sis looked at Lu Yin. "Everyone is certain that the Progenitor realm is the pinnacle of human cultivation, but you already know that there is a difference between weak and strong Progenitors. The weakest Progenitors can't defeat you, while you aren’t capable of even putting up a fight against the strongest Progenitors. Since we are split between the strong and the weak, then why are we all called Progenitors?

"Because the Progenitor realm is not the true pinnacle.

"The Origin Progenitor was not a Progenitor. While he claimed that he was a Progenitor and was referred to as such, everyone from our era agreed that the Origin Progenitor had clearly reached a higher level. The Three Realms and Six Dao were at the limit of a Progenitor’s strength, but the Origin Progenitor was still on another level from them. The only possibility anyone could imagine was that the Origin Progenitor had ascended beyond the Progenitor realm.”

Lu Yin understood. "The Lost Clan has Primeval cards, and those are also beyond the Progenitor realm."

Big Sis looked quite solemn. "The war between humans and Aeternus has lasted for countless years. Truthfully, during our era, the Aeternals were not taken seriously at first. It wasn’t until the First Mainland was destroyed and the Origin Progenitor disappeared, followed by one of the Three Realms and Six Dao. One by one, they died or disappeared. Only after that did the Aeternals show their fangs.”

Lu Yin nervously asked, "Why did that happen? What happened at the beginning?"

Big Sis shook her head. "It all happened too quickly. By the time we even reacted, the First Mainland had already shattered, quickly followed by the Fourth Mainland. An all-out war was being fought on the Third Mainland at Turtledove River. At the time, we had peak powerhouses from other universes helping us. I was kicked off of a tree by Ce Wangtian during the battle of Turtledove River, and I tried to reverse time, which is how I ended up in this current era. Actually, hasn’t Progenitor Yuan shared any of this with you?"

Lu Yin shook his head. Naturally, he had asked Ancestor Lu Yuan about the fall of the Heavens Sect, but the man had not wanted to say much to Lu Yin. Lu Yuan had mentioned that it involved karma beyond the limits of what Lu Yin could handle, which suggested that it involved forces beyond the Progenitor realm. That was the power that had shattered the First Mainland.

Progenitor Yuan feared that telling Lu Yin about such matters would influence the direction of the young man’s cultivation, which would change the path he was following. UppTodated from nô/v/e/lb(i)n.c(o)/m

"Where is the Origin Progenitor? Is he dead?"

"Since you’ve already asked Progenitor Yuan, don't ask me. How could I know more than him?"

Lu Yin realized that this was accurate.

Progenitor Lu Yuan was certain that the Origin Progenitor was not dead, but then, where was he? The Immemorial Citadel?

What did the Immemorial Citadel mean to the Aeternals? If there were many powerful humans there, why had they not counterattacked against Aeternus?

Lu Yin was only a Semi-Progenitor, and thus, this was all that he knew. He would not be able to learn more until he became a Progenitor.

"Are you sure that it’s here?" Lu Tianyi asked softly.

Destina nodded. "Absolutely."

Lu Tianyi raised a hand and pointed a finger. The void warped, and an entire region of the universe was squeezed by some invisible power that swept out and split the ruins of Daosource Sect in two.

"The glory of the past is gone."

A massive figure charged out. It was one of the Aeternals’ Progenitor-level corpse kings.

The corpse king rushed at Lu Tianyi. It did not fear death, as corpse kings felt no fear at all. The monster raised a fist and slammed it down. Black gravel swirled just beyond the fist’s shockwave, which was clearly the corpse king’s innate gift.

Lu Tianyi's eyes did not even look at the corpse king. He continued to stare off into the distance as he took a single step forward, leading Lu Yin and Destina past the corpse king.

The corpse king was simply crushed.

Even a Progenitor-level corpse king had no way to fight back.

Destina's pupils shrank. She could not understand what had just happened.

However, Lu Yin did understand. Lu Tianyi had not attacked, but the sequence particles in front of the man had not moved or disappeared. The corpse king had killed itself by rushing straight into those sequence particles.

Those sequence particles were the laws of the universe that Lu Tianyi wielded, and it was a law of extreme destruction. As long as he touched something, should he so desire, Lu Tianyi would shatter what he touched. If he touched a person, they would not be able to heal the injury or heal. It was a truly domineering law.

This was Lu Tianyi’s law.

The gap between Progenitors was vaster than what people could imagine.

Ripples spread out, and every last corpse king was destroyed.

"If one chooses to become the corpse king, then they deserve no pity when they die. If they were forced to transform, then death liberates them. Xiaoxuan, you cannot be soft-hearted when it comes to Aeternus," Lu Tianyi commented in an off-hand manner.

Lu Yin acknowledged the advice, "This junior understands."

The ruins of the Daosource Sect were in terrible condition, and the walls that still stood were at risk of collapsing from the slightest touch. The place that had once represented the ultimate glory of the Sixth Mainland had been brought so low.

"Ancestor, is the Sixth Mainland’s Dao Monarch dead or alive?" Lu Yin asked.

Nothing was known about the Sixth Mainland’s Garan clan. There were known to have been the Three Realms and Six Dao during the Heavens Sect era, and while the Three Realms were all known, the Six Dao consisted of the six Dao Monarchs. The First Mainland had had the Origin Progenitor himself, and the Mavis family had ruled over the Second Mainland. Gu Yizhi had been the Dao Monarch of the Third Mainland. Wilderness God had been given the Fourth Mainland, and Ancestor Lu Yuan had been in charge of the Fifth Mainland. All of them were known and spoken about, but the Sixth Mainland’s Garan clan was almost never mentioned.

Lu Tianyi found the Stargazing Deck and led Lu Yin to it. "The Garan clan has a single lineage inheritance. Such an inheritance ensures that each descendant of their family will be powerful and that no weaklings will be born, but the shortcomings of such a bloodline are also quite clear. The family can be easily wiped out.

"The Garan family’s bloodline was severed with Sky Garan's disappearance. His father also died in battle, and their ancestor disappeared. Since then, the Garan family never appeared again. As time passed, everyone believe that the family had been wiped out."

Lu Yin asked, "The Garan family’s ancestor went missing?"

Lu Tianyi looked forward. "There it is."

Lu Yin looked forward and saw the Stargazing Deck just up ahead. The entire ruins of the Daosource Sect had been freed of corpse kings.

Lu Yin slowly walked down next to the Stargazing Deck. He had finally found it.

The pearl that had been given to the Lu family had been given away long ago, going missing. With the pearl that Lu Yin recovered, the only one still missing was the one that had been given to the Lu family. However, Lu Yin should be able to track it down with the other pearls that he had gathered.

With Lu Tianyi at his side, Lu Yin was in no hurry to grab the pearl. He wanted to first step onto the Stargazing Deck.
