Star Odyssey Chapter 3264: Leaving

Chapter 3264: Leaving

It was also possible that Luo Shen had been the one to manipulate events so that Zi Rong had learned the Corpse King Transformation. Everything had been under her control.

She had protected Lu Yin from harm, while constantly trying to get closer to him. When Feng Mo had attacked Madam Nalan, why had it coincidentally happened right when Lu Yin was on Aegis Planet? If not for that, Feng Mo’s attack would have succeeded. Luo Shen must have also orchestrated that.

Everything that Luo Shen had done had been to get closer to Lu Yin.

Across the vast battlefield, Lu Yin and Luo Shen locked eyes.

Luo Shen had blood leaking from the corner of her mouth as she stared at Lu Yin. The woman’s expression was incredibly complex. At that moment, Lu Yin could not read it at all.

Did Luo Shen really love him? How could that even be possible? She was Whiteless G.o.d, an ancient powerhouse who had lived for countless years. They had only met a handful of times. Lu Yin was not nearly self-absorbed enough to believe that Whiteless G.o.d could have fallen for him. Everything had to have been an act.

The dirt spear pierced Luo Shen’s body, pinning her to the ground and spilling her blood.

Luo Shen looked at Lu Yin and mouthed something.

His eyes narrowed as he watched her body be torn apart by dozens of soil spears. He remained frozen in place, dazed. He was completely confused by what Luo Shen had just said to him. "I knew you were Long Qi. You owe me your life."

It was during that time that Luo Shen had also visited the Perennial World, arriving there via Jupiter in order to chase after Lu Yin. However, for most of that time, she had been in the Zenith Mountain. When had she ever saved Lu Yin?

The black rain of dirt spears continued to fall, stabbing down across the Immemorial Citadel’s battlefield.

Whiteless G.o.d’s death was just one minor detail of the entire conflict.

One by one, corpse kings emerged from the Ossis Ark, only to be crushed by either the ancient super giant, Supreme, or the earthen spears.

Of the top five strongest creatures from the Ossis Ark, Lu Yin had killed the triangular-headed corpse king. The long-legged creature was surrounded by runes, which erased parts of its body. However, the runes were nothing more than remnants of the Rune Progenitor’s power. It was nearly impossible for the runes to kill the long-legged creature.

A dirt spear pierced the long-legged creature's head, ending it.

Arrow G.o.d blocked the earthen spears, but she could not fend off the combined a.s.sault of Ye Wu, the Abandoned, and Ce w.a.n.gtian. Ce w.a.n.gtian slapped Arrow G.o.d’s forehead with his slipper, forcing Arrow G.o.d to use her innate gift to avoid death as her body dropped down.

Ye Wu and the Abandoned instantly chased after the woman.

Ce w.a.n.gtian was unaware of Arrow G.o.d’s innate gift and was therefore a step too slow. Fortunately, Lu Yin knew about it.

A dirt spear shot down, straight at Arrow G.o.d. The woman’s body was inundated by a rain of black spears.

Mu Ji's eyes were bloodshot as he stared intently at his Roulette of Life and Death. He completely ignored the spears falling from up above. "Spin, spin!"

Then, the spears dropped.

A short distance away, w.a.n.g Xiaoyu stared blankly up at the descending spears. Was she about to die?

Lu Yin glanced at w.a.n.g Xiaoyu. There were multiple indications that the woman had not really betrayed humanity, but if he did not target her, the Aeternals would become suspicious of her.

The best way would be…

Progenitor Chen appeared beside w.a.n.g Xiaoyu, and he wrapped an arm around her waist while throwing a palm strike at the sky, shattering the soil spears. Lu Yin’s attack caused the Progenitor’s body to drop down a bit from the pressure. He turned to look at Lu Yin. "Lord Lu, let her go."

Lu Yin's expression turned cold. "She was the primary instigator of the war between the Fifth and the Sixth Mainlands. She is the worst Redback in the history of the Fifth Mainland. How could I face my dead ancestors if I let her go? So many died during that battle, including even the Rune Progenitor. All that remains of him are his runes."

Progenitor Chen took a deep breath. "She never betrayed anyone. Aeternus used her to get me to start that war. I will bear the cost of that conflict."

Lu Yin’s eyes narrowed. It was best if Progenitor Chen protected w.a.n.g Xiaoyu, as this allowed the woman to decide on her own whether to reveal herself or not.

Held by Progenitor Chen, w.a.n.g Xiaoyu struck the man’s chest with a palm and broke free from his embrace. The man stared at her in shock.

He did not have any specific reason to trust w.a.n.g Xiaoyu, as he simply trusted her without question or doubt. He did not need to investigate her at all.

"Xiaoyu."

w.a.n.g Xiaoyu slowly retreated to the black Mother Tree. Suddenly, Forgotten Ruins G.o.d swooped down and grabbed the other woman before racing back to the black Mother Tree.

Progenitor Chen did not chase them, and he simply watched.

Forgotten Ruins G.o.d glanced back at Progenitor Chen. "Xia Shang, Xiaoyu belongs to my w.a.n.g family. The scar that you left on my face back then means that you will never get her back, haha."

Far away, Lu Yin frowned. How had Forgotten Ruins G.o.d avoided being killed by his Dust World?

He looked in another direction, which was where Forgotten Ruins G.o.d and Ancestor Tianyi had been fighting.

At the moment, Lu Tianyi was staring at his own hands in confusion. He had no idea how Forgotten Ruins G.o.d had escaped.

Forgotten Ruins G.o.d was one of the first of the Seven SkyG.o.ds whose ident.i.ties was exposed. After so long, her power should have been thoroughly understood. Lu Tianyi should have been able to suppress the woman, and the dirt spears should not have had any trouble executing her. So, why was she completely unharmed? Not only had she escaped from Lu Tianyi and the dirt spears, but she had also managed to get close to Progenitor Chen and take w.a.n.g Xiaoyu away without alerting the man.

This should not have been possible, given Forgotten Ruins G.o.d's abilities.

Lu Yin suddenly considered Forgotten Ruins G.o.d's words. The scar that Progenitor Chen had left on her face must be the flower mark.

Had Progenitor Chen wanted to kill her? Of course he had, and yet Forgotten Ruins G.o.d still lived. The only sign of Progenitor Chen’s attempt to kill the woman was the flower on her face. Clearly, Progenitor Chen had failed to kill her in the past.

Just how powerful was Progenitor Chen?

Each era had its own supreme powerhouses.

During the ancient Heavens Sect era, the Origin Progenitor and the Three Realms and Six Daos had represented the pinnacle of strength.

Later, during the Daosource Sect era, the Nine Mountains and Eight Seas had been nothing more than a t.i.tle. There would not have been any connection to the strongest powerhouses from the Heavens Sect era, except for the fact that Progenitor Chen and Progenitor Ku had both been different. They had represented the pinnacle of power during the Daosource Sect era.

Progenitor Ku had invaded the Scourge on his own and faced True G.o.d without dying.

Progenitor Chen had been confident that he could create a battle technique that could challenge True G.o.d, and one palm strike had been enough to obliterate Progenitor Xi.

Each of them were supreme experts.

Despite his incredible combat strength, Progenitor Chen had still failed to kill Forgotten Ruins G.o.d. Clearly, humanity had been underestimating the woman all along. She had never revealed her true strength, or perhaps, she possessed incredible abilities that were focused on survival.

However, even if she did manage to return to the black Mother Tree, Ancestor Lu Yuan was still standing in her way.

Atop the black Mother Tree, Lu Yuan looked over at the rest of the battlefield, and he saw Forgotten Ruins G.o.d approaching with w.a.n.g Xiaoyu.

From another direction, Zhan Yan was also approaching.

Additionally, there was Ancient G.o.d and the old monster, Yuan Qi.

Further away, Tian En was being held tightly in place by Progenitor Ku and Garan Zhiluo.

The battle had devolved to the point where the Aeternals only had a few true powerhouses remaining.

Also, a dog.

True G.o.d’s eyes opened. The golden light of the Six Paths of Reincarnation Realm looked beautiful, but it was his prison.

This cage trapped not only True G.o.d, but also all of Aeternus.

Given the current situation, unless something unexpected happened, none of the Aeternals would survive aside from True G.o.d himself.

Humanity had far too many powerful experts on the battlefield.

With this thought, Yong Heng rose to his feet.

At the same time, Lu Yuan also moved, keeping his eyes on True G.o.d.

True G.o.d did not spare Lu Yuan so much as a glance. Both of them were inside the Six Paths of Reincarnation Realm, and Yong Heng’s body was still shrouded by his Dominion. Without his barrier, True G.o.d would not be able to withstand the attacks of all the present human experts.

“Yong Heng, you’ve lost. A fair and square battle would be better than hiding like a coward,” Lu Yuan warned, though still wary of the other man.

True G.o.d had blood at the corner of his mouth. “If not for Tai Hong, you would’ve lost long ago.

“The final outcome is still undecided. There’s no need to rush to conclusions.”

True G.o.d looked past Lu Yuan at Undying G.o.d, Xu Jin, Di Qiong, and Shaman G.o.d. Two seeds from his Eternal Decree floated in front of his forehead.

Undying G.o.d and the others all looked at True G.o.d. Then, they exploded.

Boom!

The void trembled, and spatial cracks spread out endlessly in all directions.

The self-destruction of the experts at the Seven SkyG.o.ds level almost shattered the battlefield, and the rain of dirt spears was overpowered.

Lu Yin was startled. This was not a good development.

One after another, the remaining seeds flew towards True G.o.d.

Mu Shen and Lord Xu tried to stop them, but the seeds pa.s.sed right through their hands as they shot through s.p.a.ce.

Lu Yin used Inverse Step to instantly appear in front of one of the seeds. He reached out to grab it, but the seed also pa.s.sed through his palm. It was as though the seed had no physical substance.

Lu Yin swung a fist, releasing such terrifying force that the void shattered entirely, exposing the True Void. This destructive power was on the level of the Three Realms and Six Daos. This was the strength needed to break through to the Origin realm.

However, even this punch failed to stop the seed.

The seeds were not physical objects, but rather projections of True G.o.d's divine energy.

One by one, the seeds arrived in front of True G.o.d. Lu Yuan also tried to stop them, but all such efforts were useless.

Six seeds floated in front of True G.o.d. They then pressed into his forehead, leaving images of six seeds on the center of his brow.

At that moment, the golden Six Paths of Reincarnation Realm suddenly shrank. It pa.s.sed right by Lu Yuan to wrap around True G.o.d’s body like a golden robe.

Not even the Six Paths of Reincarnation Realm could fully restrain True G.o.d’s power. The best it could do was restrict him in this manner.

Fortunately, True G.o.d was still unable to break free from the Six Paths of Reincarnation Realm. As long as that prison existed, his power would be limited, and that prevented him from actually fighting in the battle.

Lu Yuan threw a palm at True G.o.d.

The attack pa.s.sed right through the Six Paths of Reincarnation Realm, but it was still blocked by the Dominion.

The layer closest to True G.o.d’s body was his own barrier, and it protected him from all attacks. On top of that was the Six Paths of Reincarnation Realm, which restricted the man’s power.

He was enveloped in both red and gold light. He slowly lifted his head, stepped past Lu Yuan, and appeared beside Forgotten Ruins G.o.d and w.a.n.g Xiaoyu. "Let’s go."

True G.o.d was abandoning the black Mother Tree.

The black Mother Tree was still being held in place by the Megalith and the Pridebeast. With his strength restricted, there was no way for True G.o.d to take it from them, so he was forced to give it up.

This battle had clearly started because of the black Mother Tree, and True G.o.d’s actions suggested that he had been forced to a dead end. He was truly at his limits.

Forgotten Ruins G.o.d and w.a.n.g Xiaoyu were taken away by True G.o.d. They walked across the battlefield as though it was flat ground.

Everyone attacked them, and one by one, powerful attacks rained down. There were too many humans free to attack at this moment, but none of them could land a hit on True G.o.d.

He moved as though he was walking through time itself, completely unharmed by all the attacks.

Lu Yin moved at the speed of time with Inverse Step, and yet True G.o.d pa.s.sed right by him. He was completely unaffected, as Lu Yin’s understanding of the power of time could not compare to True G.o.d’s.

Yong Heng appeared next to Tian En. Progenitor Ku was knocked back, and the b.u.t.terfly was taken away by True G.o.d.

Next, the man appeared near Zhan Yan. Mu Zhu attacked, but he failed to even shake the man. The next instance, he vanished again.

He appeared next to Ancient G.o.d, glanced at Chu Yi, and then swept past like a phantom.

Blackless G.o.d was the next target. Black Lines wrapped around True G.o.d, and then he disappeared.
