Chapter 2915: Enemy Attack
Lu Yin was also keeping an eye on the True God Guard Captains.
Although these captains were not sequence powerhouses, their innate gifts were all unique. As soon as any of them broke through and became a sequence powerhouse, they would become incredibly difficult to deal with.
Divine energy roiled and filled Giant’s Purgatory, adding an even deeper feeling of cruelty to the universe. The divine energy’s dark-red color twined with the red of the spilled blood as the vicious battlefield expanded.
The super giants roared as they fought.
Lu Yin stared off into the distance. There was a pair of eyes staring back at him, and at that moment, they changed from scarlet to red. It was Zhong Pan.
Blackless God had already warned Zhong Pan to perform a Corpse King Transformation as soon as he encountered Lu Yin; otherwise, the corpse king might die. As soon as Zhong Pan saw Lu Yin, the monster’s eyes turned red, and his physical might reached a level where the void twisted and shattered around him.
A flash of darkness fell as Zhong Pan tore through the void, charging at Lu Yin with a punch.
Lu Yin casually flicked a hand, and Infinity appeared. Lines of light merged into Lu Yin’s body, and at the same time, Wielder-realm battle force appeared and shrouded his body while the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant let out a roar. Lu Yin’s arms withered. "Come on!"
Boom!
The resulting explosion caused Mr. Daheng, who was a short distance away and trying to counter the divine energy, glance over at Lu Yin in surprise. This boy's physical strength was beyond freakish, and given their close proximity, Mr. Daheng sensed it quite clearly.
The void rose and fell rhythmically before it shattered entirely.
Countless black shards scattered in all directions. They were bits of the Hollow.
Lu Yin fell back, his entire arm feeling a bit numb.
After having undergone a Red Eyes Transformation, Zhong Pan’s strength had reached a level that left Lu Yin feeling as helpless as when he had first faced off against the corpse king. He was unable to match up to even one of Zhong Pan’s punches.
Zhong Pan moved closer to Lu Yin, crushing the void with every step.
In Lu Yin's heart, the gray star moved, and 100 punches were confined.
There was a bang, but Lu Yin was still pushed back. Even if he was not forced back as far as before, he was still being pushed back without even shaking Zhong Pan’s body.
With Lu Yin’s full strength, he was capable of fighting against Zhong Pan after a Green Eyes Transformation, but he was no match for Zhong Pan after a Red Eyes Transformation.
However, that was only when it came to physical power.
Seeing Zhong Pan’s third punch approaching him, Lu Yin took a deep breath and used Inverse Step to move past the corpse king. Within the chaotic region of time and space, Zhong Pan’s punch missed, and Lu Yin seized the opportunity to raise his slipper.
Zhong Pan was forced to dodge the slipper, but Lightstream appeared and reversed time by a second.
This happened twice, and then Lu Yin successfully slapped the slipper onto Zhong Pan’s back, which sent the corpse king flying and blood spraying.
Lu Yin moved forward, chasing after Zhong Pan. Rage filled the corpse king’s eyes, and dark-red divine energy boiled out of his body, shrouding his body like steam. Not only did the bleeding wounds recover, but Zhong Pan’s aura also surged wildly.
Lu Yin slapped Zhong Pan again with the slipper, but this time, his attack was blocked by divine energy. The corpse king grabbed Lu Yin's arm and squeezed hard. It was extremely painful, and Lightstream flickered, reversing time by one second. With that extra second, Lu Yin altered his attack. Instead of swinging the slipper at Zhong Pan, Lu Yin stopped the attack and stepped back.
He did not attack at all, so Zhong Pan failed to counter Lu Yin’s attack.
The two stood across from each other.
Seeing the roiling divine energy that covered Zhong Pan's body, Lu Yin's eyes flickered, and he glanced around. Everywhere he looked, vicious battles were breaking out. The jiao had already moved most of the second battalion away. Trying to have them join the fights that were happening in Giant’s Purgatory would be nothing less than sending them all to their deaths.
The army’s greatest use was in their numbers and searching for the hidden Skygods in the various parallel universes. With the appearance of Corpse God, Lu Yin did not want any of the other Seven Skygods to show up, as that would be a huge issue.
Should he ask Ancestor Tianyi to participate as well?
The battle between Sovereign Dou Sheng and Corpse God was shattering the universe, but Lu Yin had no time to watch it. His battle was with Zhong Pan. The corpse king used his divine energy like an invincible armor. Regardless of whether he faced sequence particles or the slipper, this armor would protect Zhong Pan. This was what gave the True God Guard Captains the confidence to fight against anyone.
However, while Zhong Pan had his confidence to face sequence powerhouses, so too did Lu Yin.
Mu Ke was doing the same, examining the area around them.
The Aeternals were thrilled to see this, as Cheng Kong alone was able to keep two of the human powerhouses occupied, which gave the rest of the Aeternals a chance to breathe.
"Can you find him?" Mu Ke asked solemnly.
Lu Yin’s eyes narrowed. "Yes."
...
In the Origin Universe, the Heavens Sect had been completely sealed down, and no one was allowed to enter or leave. While the crusade was active on the Endless Frontier, the Heavens Sect was worried that the Aeternals would attack the sect itself.
However, such an attack was quite unlikely.
In one corner of Heavens Sect, a man stepped out of the shadows. With a tap of his finger, the void opened, and another figure emerged from the void.
"Fortunately, I was careful after deciding that I wanted to destroy this place, and I controlled someone. Without that, it would have been really difficult to get in here," a man with a sinister voice commented.
The individual who had arrived through the void was Yu Huo.
"Can you find it? We must take that thing back," Yu Huo said.
The man replied, "All of the Heavens Sect’s research projects are concentrated in Backyard, so we can just go straight there."
"Let’s go."
The Heavens Sect was truly massive, but the man led the way, and the two people quickly arrived at Backyard.
Backyard remained the Heavens Sect’s research center, and it was where things like microarray technology and wireless jincans were studied. Already, the sequence particle sensors had been added to the various projects. It was clear to see that the destruction of Backyard would drastically reduce the overall power of the Heavens Sect.
After all, the Heavens Sect’s Progenitors were only able to temporarily gain the ability to use sequence particles with the help of the sequence particle technology.
The man successfully arrived at Backyard while leading Yu Huo, though they were stopped at the entrance.
"Show me your voucher." A cultivator with no expression on his face stood guard at the entrance.
The man smiled and pretended to take out a voucher, but the guard’s eyes flashed, and he immediately sounded the alarm.
There were no vouchers to enter Backyard, and the question itself was a trick. All the guards knew the faces of everyone who could enter Backyard, so there was no need for any sort of credentials. The guard had only asked the question to buy a bit of time to sound the alarm.
The moment the alarm rang, the man's expression changed. "We’re exposed!"
Yu Huo casually slapped the guard dead and then stepped forward. However, as he did so, black energy surged over and slammed into the fish.
Yu Huo’s expression grew exceptionally cold beneath his black robes. "Another black energy converter."
As the fish spoke, his black robe shattered, and his body grew. The True God Guard Captain immediately entered his transformed state, growing into a massive python as a powerful aura swept across the Heavens Sect.
Everyone in the sect was startled. "Enemy attack!"
Monarch Xing looked up and hurriedly over towards the Backyard. At the same time, two more black energies appeared in the Heavens Sect, both making their way towards Backyard. One belonged to Highsage Grandmaster, while the other belonged to Elder Gong. Lu Yin had temporarily given them two black energy converters, in order to better protect the Heavens Sect.
With Master Shan, Monarch Xing, and the Ancestor Tortoise, there were another five Progenitor-level combatants guarding the Heavens Sect. Regardless of what they might face, they could at least buy some time.
