Chapter 3222: Control

Chapter 3222: Control

Garan Zhiluo was not alone, as many others also laughed. Even Mu Ji could not stop himself from smirking.

Sure enough, the trident had a rather odd appearance at the moment. One of the three sharp tines seemed to have melted away, while the other two were bent. It looked less like a mighty trident and more like a broken pitchfork.

The constant laughter enraged Tian Feng even further, and the stone let out a roar of fury. "Humans, you all deserve to die! You all must die!"

The trident finally shattered, exposing Lu Yin, who had been inside of the weapon this whole time. He waved his hand, and a column of soil shot at Tian Feng. "You're the one who should die! All of you Boundary Guardians should die!"

The images of Hongyan Mavis and Wu Tian which had been summoned from Lu Yin’s Investiture of the Gods worked together as more columns of soil stabbed into Tian Feng with loud crashing sounds.

The void warped around Tian Feng, flickering as it revealed different images. This was its Two Worlds Dust Array. Tian Feng was not giving up, and it was trying to drag Lu Yin into a sourcebox array and then eliminate him by erasing a timeline.

In some ways, this sourcebox array was similar to Restart.

It dragged its target into a parallel timeline, and then destroyed both the target and that timeline.

Garan Zhiluo was constantly disrupting Tian Feng’s efforts, which made it difficult to fully activate the sourcebox array.

Tian Ci's expression fell. Never before had the Boundary Guardians been so humiliated before. Even after they had joined forces with Aeternus to deal with humanity, the humans were still overpowering them.

They had to win this battle, or else the Boundary Guardians would forever lose their place in this megaverse.

In fact, the Boundary Guardians might even be hunted by humanity, which was something that neither Tian Ci nor the megaverse that he had come from could accept.

This thought caused him to turn and look at True God, who met the Boundary Guardian’s gaze.

So far, Tian Feng had used three sourcebox arrays, but that was not all that the stone possessed. Tian Feng had once used its sourcebox arrays to seal the Origin Progenitor’s hands, which had forced the man to cut them off. Not even Garan Zhiluo knew which specific array had been used at that time, as she had not witnessed the battle between the Boundary Guardians and the Origin Progenitor.

Elsewhere on the battlefield, a blazing light enveloped Tian Ci, and when he swung his sword, it possessed much greater power than before. The stars shook, and the ground cracked open as the black Mother Tree trembled.

Lu Yin watched in amazement. Not even the Lord of Lightning or Wu Tian could stand up to Tian Ci at this moment. The two men’s attacks vanished without a trace, having no effect on Tian Ci.

The Lord of Lightning had the confidence to attack even True God, while Tian Ci was an Ortuser. While the distinction between Ortusers and Dukkhan was a bit unclear, it seemed to be somewhat similar to the difference between a sequence powerhouse and a peak powerhouse. The main difference between Ortusers and Dukkhans was their cultivation realm, as well as a crucial step. If a sequence powerhouse possessed the strength to break through to the True Void, like Lu Yuan, Hongyan Mavis, and the other Three Realms and Six Daos, then there would not be a huge power gap between them and an Ortuser.

The Lord of Lightning undoubtedly had the requisite strength to access the True Void, but he was still being suppressed by Tian Ci.

Tian Ci was the strongest of the Boundary Guardians.

"Blackless God, what are you waiting for? We need to end things now!" Lu Tianyi shouted as he charged at Tian Ci, the golden light of the Investiture of the Gods instantly shrouding half of the Second Scourge.

Behind him, Blackless God’s eyes twitched, and he suddenly looked up. His eyes met True God’s.

"So, it’s you," True God stated calmly.

In a low voice, Blackless God replied, "I’ve done a lot for Aeternus, but now it’s time to change sides."

True God said nothing more, but the murder that blazed in his eyes seemed able to incinerate the stars.

There was no doubt that one of the Seven Skygods was a human spy, but True God had never been able to determine who the traitor was. Shaman God had once been suspected, but they had died fighting for Aeternus. Undying God had also been doubted, but he had also died under similar circumstances. Forgotten Ruins God had coerced multiple generations of the Wang family to betray humanity and join the Aeternals, with Wang Xiaoyu even triggering a war between the Sixth and Fifth Mainlands. Thus, it was impossible for the woman to be a traitor to Aeternus. The rest, such as Corpse God, were not even human. Ancient God was being controlled by True God himself, and Whiteless God held Aeterna, and she had done as much damage to humanity as the entire Wang family.

After considering all the possibilities, only Blackless God remained a possibility, and as it turned out, Blackless God was indeed the traitor.

Finally, a shadow fell on Lu Yin as Supreme punched at him. There was a deafening boom, but Lu Yin did not move. Instead, Supreme retreated a few steps, forced back by the recoil.

In an instant, Lu Yin had withstood the attacks of five figures with the strength of sequence powerhouses: the Abandoned, Ye Wu, Mu Ke, Emperor Shang, and Blackless God.

It was absolutely impossible for all five to turn traitor at the exact same time, which meant that there was only one explanation: they had been controlled.

The Abandoned and the others glanced around in confusion.

Inside Supreme, Emperor Shang was badly shaken. How could such a thing have happened?

Further away, Mu Ke clenched his saber while a block of wood stopped one of Progenitor Xi’s slashes.

Mu Ke stared at Lu Yin, confused by the fact that he had just attacked his own junior brother.

"A microscopic Progenitor’s world is changing things. Be careful, as this is a top-level expert," Wu Tian warned.

Blackless God's expression darkened. "It's Whiteless God."

Lu Yin grew serious. Whiteless God had finally appeared.

She was the most mysterious of the Seven Skygods, and she rarely took action.

Thus far, Whiteless God and the last of the Three Pillars were the only Aeternals who had never shown themselves during the various battles between humanity and Aeternus. All the other top powerhouses had either fallen or at least been wounded.

Whiteless God was the one who held Aeterna, the list that recorded all human traitors. The fact that she had joined the battlefield meant that the Aeternals were facing a genuine crisis.

However, the value of Aeterna had diminished greatly over the years. Lu Yin had managed to purge nearly all the spies in both the Origin Universe and the Sixverse Association, capturing or killing many. The Aeternals had even exposed almost 100 of their own spies, including Wu Hen, an Arborean, in an attempt to cripple Lu Yin and the Heavens Sect.

That attempt had used up almost all the spies who had been undercover in the Sixverse Association.

Even Yao Lan had been revealed as a traitor, and she was a peak powerhouse.

It had not been easy for the Aeternals to recruit so many spies, not to mention spies who were peak powerhouses. Just how many names could still be left on Aeterna?

The biggest threat that Lu Yin and the others faced at this moment was not hidden spies, but rather Whiteless God herself.

Whiteless God had not managed to become one of the Seven Skygods and receive the title of one of Three Pillars and Six Skies because of how she had groomed spies. Rather, this was due to her own strength.

Ancestor Lu Tianyi had once fought against Whiteless God, and he knew that she was very powerful.

The latest incident only served as proof that Whiteless God was capable of altering the balance of the entire battlefield.

Tian Feng had been granted a brief respite.

Lu Yin was forced to stop attacking Tian Feng. He thought of the speck of light that he had seen a few moments before. That must have been Whiteless God's power. She seemed to be capable of instantly manipulating the minds of a number of experts, which would prove to be quite troublesome.

Whiteless God had not revealed herself, and the Abandoned and the others glanced around in confusion, unsure of what they should do.

"Keep going!" Lu Yin ordered.

The Abandoned and the others returned to what they had been doing, but a massive shadow soon fell over Lu Yin again. It was Supreme. Once again, Emperor Shang’s mind was being manipulated, and he was attacking Lu Yin.
