Star Odyssey Chapter 1321: God of Death Transformation

Chapter 1321: G.o.d of Death Transformation

Outside Zenith Mountain, in the invisible void, the Chief Justice’s eyes narrowed; was this the end?

At the top of Zenith Mountain, Shang Qing held his head high. He had been injured, but he still felt very disappointed. No one was capable of forcing him into a life-and-death crisis, and no one could help him break through the barrier of the Tri-Yang Technique.

Progenitor Chen and Progenitor Hui both transformed back into strands of qi that swirled around Shang Qing’s body, making him look like a deity as he stood in the sky. This was the same appearance that he had had at the beginning of ZENITH, but now, he was the first and only Pinnacle Youth.

He looked up at the statue. The originally featureless face would soon take on his appearance. To him, invincibility was simply a process. Shang Qing’s goal was to become a Progenitor, not just be peerless within his realm. Unfortunately, no one could defeat him.

Outside Zenith Mountain, Mu En was feeling very satisfied. This was Shang Qing, and ZENITH was over. They had succeeded. Of the top ten, six were from the Human Domain, one was a Celestial Demon from the Astral Beast Domain, one was w.a.n.g Yi from the Technocracy, and two were youths from the Sixth Mainland. These results were perfectly acceptable to the Hall of Honor.

The most satisfying detail was Shang Qing’s fights. No matter who he had gone up against, he had basically crushed all of his opponents. That was it. Although the purpose of ZENITH was to select the top ten, there was also the intention of raising the Human Domain’s morale and allowing the universe to see the strength and invincibility of the Hall of Honor.

This result had been expected.

At the top of Zenith Mountain, the twisted void disappeared from around Lu Yin as the sourcebox array was lifted, unsealing Lu Yin.

Shang Qing looked away from the statue and back at Lu Yin. In the last attack, Shang Qing had held back, as otherwise, he would have killed Lu Yin.

Eh? Shang Qing snapped back to look at Lu Yin once again. This time, a black and white mist had appeared from somewhere and was wrapping itself around Lu Yin’s body, though Shang Qing had no idea when it had appeared.

Shang Qing was not the only one, as everyone was seeing the same thing, and they were all staring at the top of the mountain in confusion.

What the h.e.l.l was this? A black and white coc.o.o.n?

Everyone throughout the universe was staring at their screens and focusing on the black and white coc.o.o.n that had appeared. What in the world was that?

Outside Zenith Mountain, Mu En's eyes narrowed. That, that was death energy!

In the Neoverse, Highsage Grandmaster became solemn. Black and white?

In the Honor Zone, Arch-Elder Zen was completely focused on the black and white coc.o.o.n. Even with his level of self-restraint, he was rather stunned at the moment.

G.o.d Taiyi, Jin He, G.o.d Qingguang, and the others who could use Truesight were all staring at the black and white coc.o.o.n in utter disbelief. In their vision, Lu Yin’s number of rune lines were spiking without showing any signs of stopping or slowing down.

Jin He had a grudge against Lu Yin, and upon seeing this situation, he could not hold himself back anymore. He created numerous weapons and launched every single one of them at the dual-colored coc.o.o.n. Jin He believed that Lu Yin was currently undergoing some sort of transformation and that it had to be interrupted.

The various weapons bombarded the black and white coc.o.o.n without any hesitation, but they were simply absorbed into the black before eventually shattering.

Jin He was horrified at what he saw. "Hurry up! He's metamorphosing!"

At the top of Zenith Mountain, Shang Qing stared at the black and white coc.o.o.n. His eyes showed a rare light of excitement and fighting intent as his mouth pulled up into a smile. Two strands of ancestral qi left his body and transformed into summons of Progenitor Chen that then merged together. "So this is what gave you the courage to challenge me. Is this power? Then give it a shot. I hope that you can push me past my limits!"

His voice cut off, and the black and white coc.o.o.n in the distance broke open. A figure slowly stood up from it.

High in the sky, the black color rose up, looking like a crashing wave that spread out through s.p.a.ce before moving off into the distance.

Throughout the region, everyone and everything that was touched by this black energy felt a chill run through their hearts, even the Envoys whose power levels approached a million. They felt as if a terrifying power was present within this energy. It was not that Lu Yin was a threat himself, but rather this energy that was terrifying.

However, at this moment, no one cared about the black energy, as everyone was staring at their screens in disbelief.

Even the Sixth Mainland’s three Progenitors were staring at Zenith Mountain in disbelief.

At the top of the mountain, Lu Yin quietly rose to his feet. At this moment, his appearance had changed drastically, and he even looked like a completely different person.

Long hair hung down to his waist. His upper body was naked, though black energy continued to swirl around him like a spinning nebula, encircling his body like a chain. Incomprehensible dark red veins ran across his entire body as white energy formed a shield on his left arm while his right hand held a ma.s.sive scythe. The black energy gathered behind him like a cloud, and a faint pair of eyes were ever so visible in the cloud, its expression screaming of death and ruthlessness.

The broken black and white coc.o.o.n gradually transformed into more black energy, which slowly moved to wrap around Lu Yin and form a black cloak.

Lu Yin looked up. His eyes were completely black, and he looked like G.o.d of death as he stared at Shang Qing.

At this moment, everyone in the entire universe lost their voices as they blankly stared on.

Further down the mountain, Black was stunned. Her eyes were wide. “Okay, okay… So, so handsome."

White shouted, "So handsome! Handsome Bro!"

Ling Gong was shocked. Even she had to admit that, at this moment, Lu Yin truly looked very handsome.

Ku Wei was horrified as he stared at Lu Yin with fear and excitement. "Se- Seventh Bro, you’re all grown up!”

Wen Sansi, Unseen Light, and more stared at Lu Yin for a moment in shock; what was this? Was this his innate gift?

Lu Yin had never revealed his innate gift before, so naturally, this was most people’s guess.

Mira's scalp went numb. She had once seen Lu Yin's innate gift before, and it was supposed to be something related to healing, so what was this? Did he have dual innate gifts?

w.a.n.g Yi was shocked as well. What? Why do I feel like I've heard of this before but can't seem to remember?

Wu Taibai stared hard at Lu Yin. He also felt that he had heard about something similar about Lu Yin’s current state, but he was also unable to remember.

Jin He blankly stared at Lu Yin. At this moment, the number of rune lines that Jin He could see on Lu Yin left the Arbiter terrified. It was not an overwhelming sense of terror, but rather a deep, cold fear related to how much this number of runes could affect the universe. Jin He had chills all over.

He was one of the Ten Arbiters, and he had cultivated Truesight, the inheritance of the Rune Civilization, to the Knowing realm. How could Jin He be afraid of anyone? That should be impossible.

Suddenly, Lu Yin's eyes, those pure black eyes, stared at Jin He, and Lu Yin slowly raised the scythe in his right hand.

Jin He's pupils instantly constricted. This was bad! Jin He’s pupils transformed into runes as he immediately used the full power of Truesight’s Knowing realm.

The Knowing realm of Truesight allowed the user to use something as a point of reference. Then, any attack could be rendered ineffective against the point of reference. Jin He’s current point of reference was himself. ZENITH was a compet.i.tion. Thus, although Lu Yin had suddenly moved before anybody could react, Jin He just needed to endure one attack. Then, the Hall of Honor would definitely intervene.

Lu Yin lowered his arm and scythe. Jin He and Lu Yin stared at each other. As Jin He looked at those pure black eyes, he was struck by a boundless fear. As the scythe fell down, blood leaked out from Jin He’s seven orifices. A diagonal wound had somehow appeared across his body, from which blood sprayed out and flowed across the ground.

Jin He’s head slowly dropped down, and he saw the ma.s.sive, bleeding wound across his chest; how had this happened?

One of the Ten Arbiters, Jin He, had been instantly beheaded by Lu Yin with his strange scythe.

The countless people watching were stunned as their scalps went numb. The person closest to Jin He had been G.o.d Taiyi, as he had been fighting against Jin He earlier. At this moment, G.o.d Taiyi’s entire body trembled as he looked at Lu Yin with fear and disbelief.

Jin He’s mastery of Truesight had been even greater G.o.d Taiyi’s, and yet Jin He had been instantly beheaded and killed. This meant that even the powerful defensive techniques of Truesight had been useless against Lu Yin. Just what had Lu Yin done?

At the top of the mountain, Lu Yin’s eyes narrowed; just like that, Jin He was dead?

Lu Yin tightly clenched the handle of his scythe. This power was truly terrifying, to the point where he did not even want to use it.

This was not Lu Yin’s first time using this power. In the Royal Frost Continent, he had tried to use this energy in his Timestop s.p.a.ce, but it had been completely beyond his control. This power was uncontrollable and tyrannical, but fortunately, he had retained enough rationality to force himself out of that particular state at that time.

His second attempt had been after Mister Mu had appeared and ordered Lu Yin to take first place in ZENITH. This was the power that Mister Mu had seen, and so, Lu Yin had been left with no choice but to try to use this power. Without it, he had no confidence in being able to defeat his compet.i.tion.

His second attempt had not been a singular attempt, but rather multiple attempts in his Timestop s.p.a.ce. Eventually, he had finally managed to suppress his raging emotions slightly, which allowed his rationality to take control.

In the past, he had tried to use this power within the isolation and protection of his Timestop s.p.a.ce, but at this moment, Lu Yin was completely exposed to the entire universe. However, he was very satisfied with his state of mind, as his rationality was able to suppress the urges of ma.s.sacre and tyranny. He named this the G.o.d of Death Transformation

"Is this your ultimate strength? I hope that you can surprise me," Shang Qing said.

Lu Yin lifted his head and looked over at Shang Qing. "This is the last battle, so let’s finish this."

Lu Yin spoke in a tone that was colder than anything he had ever used before. It was as though he was completely devoid of all emotions. His voice carried the chill of winter, and it was enough to send a shudder through all who heard it.

Shang Qing's eyes betrayed his excitement. "Okay."

He then waved a hand, prompting the fused Progenitor Chen to lift its blade and attack Lu Yin. This attack far surpa.s.sed what had been directed at anyone else. If it had been used just a few moments before, then even if Lu Yin retaliated with his Seventh Bro Finger, he still would have been beaten back.

However, at the present moment, Lu Yin had a strange look as he stared at the summoned Progenitor Chen's approaching blade—this attack did not seem that strong.

As this thought finished, Lu Yin raised his left arm, along with the white energy that had become a shield, to block the blade.

The summoned Progenitor Chen slashed down with his blade, and a tremendous bang rang across the entire mountainside. The entire mountaintop sank down, and the remnant blade qi spread throughout the rest of Zenith Mountain. After that, a dim light shot high into the sky, and the faint flames from the blade were immediately vanquished.

Everyone stared at the top of the mountain. What was happening up there?

At the mountain peak, Lu Yin was still standing firm, as the summoned Progenitor Chen's blade had been ineffective against him.

Across from Lu Yin, Shang Qing's pupils shrank, and for the first time, he turned a bit pale. He instinctively used his third strand of ancestral qi and brought out Progenitor Hui.

Lu Yin raised his right arm and slashed across with his scythe, looking like a G.o.d of death. The summoned Progenitor Chen instantly retreated as it counterattacked with its blade. There was another tremendous bang, and the summoned Progenitor Chen was blasted almost a kilometer away. The shockwave from the attack shredded the void in its pa.s.sage.

Lu Yin raised his scythe and slashed at Shang Qing.

Shang Qing felt the same sensation as Jin He—it was a chill that he would never be able to forget for the rest of his life.

He possessed a power similar to users of Truesight who had reached the Knowing realm, or individuals who could traverse the void to turn immaterial and ignore attacks from even the most powerful experts.

However, after seeing Jin He's fate, Shang Qing did not dare to take this attack head on with just his innate gift. The summoned Progenitor Hui appeared and then disappeared, taking Shang Qing with him.

The void shattered as the area was swallowed in darkness. The black energy spread out, looking like a spider web that was corroding the void itself.

Everyone was completely dumbfounded; did Lu Yin actually have the upper hand now?

The summoned Progenitor Chen rushed over from a distance and once again attacked with its blade. The invincible blade qi was useless against Lu Yin, and he simply lifted his scythe and slashed out to meet the incoming blade.
