Star Odyssey

Lu Yin was rather curious about Stillstorm. They looked like a dragon that he had only seen images of on Earth, but they also resembled the flying dragon formed by the Nests’ Lithic Drakes. What could the connection be?

Skydog quickly disappeared.

"Are you going to give chase?" the Origin Progenitor asked in confusion.

Lu Yin took out a compass. He had smeared a bit of Ethersand on the stone ball. That sand had clung to even Tian Ci’s clothes and body, so it was no surprise that it had also stuck to the stone ball and to Skydog.

"Senior, I’ll leave Yong Heng for you." Lu Yin’s expression grew solemn as he tore the void apart while holding the compass in his hand. "Let's go."

Elsewhere, Skydog was pushing the stone ball as he moved to catch back up with True God and the others.

Forgotten Ruins God and the others were surprised. "A large stone ball?"

The stone ball was a hundred meters in diameter, and it looked perfectly ordinary, aside from the drawing that was etched into its surface.

Skydog was excited, his tongue hanging out of his mouth. He sensed a strong aura of Stillstorm on the ball, which was a definitive sign that it had been a sacrificial item from the ancient era. This was exactly what he had wanted.

Suddenly, his expression changed. "Not good!"

At that moment, the void split open, and a hand reached out, moving past the stone ball to attack True God. "Yong Heng, it’s time to pay your debt."

True God’s eyes narrowed. "Tai Chu."

Boom!

The void trembled, and Forgotten Ruins God and the others were forced back as a terrifying aura that nearly made them faint appeared.

The Origin Progenitor had attacked with his full power at that instance.

Skydog howled as the stone ball was knocked away.

Lu Yin was right behind the Origin Progenitor, a Zenith Mountain already out. More people rushed out of the mountain, including Lu Yuan, Wu Tian, Hongyan Mavis, Lord Xu, Mu Shen, and Sovereign Dou Sheng.

Yan Gang’s face turned pale. "Lu Yin?"

Blackless God did not have a second thought, and he simply turned to escape.

A massive hand stretched across space to slap down upon the man. "No one will get away!"

The ancestor of the super giants was also present.

Forgotten Ruins God quickly pulled Wang Xiaoyu back.

Hongyan Mavis, Lord Xu, and Mu Shen all attacked as well.

Verdant King retreated while protecting Yan Gang. Countless insects appeared, only to be casually swept aside by Mu Shen. The insects were powerful, but they could still be easily destroyed by a sequence powerhouse.

Ce Wangtian’s slipper swung down, and Skydog met the man’s attack.

A chaotic battle erupted as people worked to surround and kill True God and the other surviving powerhouses from Aeternus. Just like the invasion of the Scourges, the final battle at the Immemorial Citadel, and the battle at the stone gate, this battle broke out abruptly and without warning.

This was Lu Yin’s manner of fighting. He had mastered too many techniques and energies, which allowed him to manipulate too many variables. If he were easy to predict, how could he have ever defeated the cunning and intelligent Aeternals?

If Progenitor Hui had relied on his intellect to concoct eon-spanning plans that took even True God’s actions into account, then Lu Yin thrived on uncertainty. The more variables that were present, the more difficult it was for others to predict Lu Yin’s actions.

For the time being, no one could escape. Blackless God, Forgotten Ruins God, Verdant King, and everyone else was trapped.

Lu Yin stared off into the distance. The most important matter at this time was the battle between the Origin Progenitor and True God.

True God was still restrained by the Six Paths of Reincarnation Realm, and his Dominion added a second, red layer to the gold that covered his form.

Dominion shrouded True God with a layer of protection that even Lu Yin and the others would find difficult to break through.

However, the Origin Progenitor was the one attacking at this time.

Long-standing grudges that had been carried for countless years were finally being released at this moment.

The Origin Progenitor’s hand reached into the Six Paths of Reincarnation Realm, and as his eyes locked with True God’s, his expression grew cold. "Yong Heng, you owe me a debt, as well as one for taking Tai Hong’s life. It’s time for you to pay."

A palm struck True God’s Dominion, and the barrier instantly cracked open.

No one understood True God better than the Origin Progenitor.

However, True God also understood the Origin Progenitor. "I didn’t expect that, after all these years, you would manage to see through my Dominion."

There was a loud crash as True God’s Dominion completely shattered. The Origin Progenitor palm struck True God’s chest, sending the man flying backward as he coughed up blood.

True God raised his hand, and countless sword images appeared and shot at the Origin Progenitor. This was the Return of the Myriad Swords.

The Return of the Myriad Swords was a powerful attack, and it had nearly killed Lu Yin once. However, it was also a technique that could allow True God to escape. Each sword image represented a moment in time for True God, and if an image of a sword was shattered, then he would have an opportunity to either advance or retreat.

However, ripples suddenly spread out, and the void changed.

Lu Yin looked over in shock. "Verdant Eternity?"

He had not expected to discover that the Origin Progenitor had restored Verdant Eternity so quickly. The technique had been sealed away by the Four Locks Array, and the only way to free the technique was to resolve the Yellow Springs.

The Origin Progenitor had once claimed that he was unable to use Verdant Eternity any longer, but that turned out to be a lie.

Verdant Eternity surrounded the area, and the Return of the Myriad Swords was rendered entirely useless.

Lu Yin stared. Was Verdant Eternity really the nemesis of the Return of the Myriad Swords like it appeared? No, that was not it at all. The Origin Progenitor had simply used some type of power, while Verdant Eternity’s presence meant that the power was not consumed as it was used.

The Origin Progenitor knew True God better than anyone, and that included True God’s techniques, power, innate gifts, combat skills, and more. The Origin Progenitor had already planned everything out.

The time held by the swords of the Return of the Myriad Swords was dissolved into nothingness within Verdant Eternity.

The Origin Progenitor used his finger as a sword, and countless images of his finger appeared on True God’s forehead. He coughed up blood, and the indistinct image of a sword appeared on his brow before it dispersed.

His vision blurred, and he continuously retreated, his face turning ashen.

He had never seen the Origin Progenitor like this before. The man’s eyes were filled with an unmatched coldness and killing intent. "Do you think that I’ve lived all these years in vain? Long ago, I determined the location of your Return of the Myriad Swords. Yong Heng, did you kill Musclehead, or was it Master Qing Cao?"

True God removed four swords from his cosmic ring. Much to the Origin Progenitor’s surprise, these were his own swords. True God attacked the Origin Progenitor with the swords.

Time fractured and unraveled. At that moment, everything around the two men, including time and space, turned chaotic. A single glance was enough to distort reality, and countless images appeared due to the shattered remnants of time that filled the area.

The Origin Progenitor’s swords were capable of suppressing the power of time, but when four of them were used in unison, they instantly shattered time entirely.

The Origin Progenitor’s four swords had been taken from the Second Mainland, the Third Mainland, the Fourth Mainland, and the Sixth Mainland.

The sword that had belonged to the First Mainland had been shattered long ago, but the Origin Progenitor had given the shards to Lu Yin, who had repaired it with his die’s Enhance.

The sword from the Fifth Mainland was still being kept within the Heavens Sect.

Lu Yin had once sent one of the Origin Progenitor’s swords back through time for his fight with Wei Nu, and that sword had been the broken sword from the First Mainland.

All four remaining swords had appeared at this moment.

"You want to use my own swords to cut me down?" Primaldust appeared at the Origin Progenitor's brow. The six specks acted like a magnet, pulling the four swords towards the man. Lu Yin was stunned. Was this really happening?

Primaldust had given birth to the Mainlands, while the Origin Progenitor’s swords had suppressed the Mainlands. Both of them were part of the same design.

How could True God have not considered this?

He had merely wanted to use the opportunity of a single moment created by the Origin Progenitor’s swords in order to retreat. True God stared at the Origin Progenitor and said, "Tai Chu, while you may not have grown weaker, you also haven’t made any progress. After all these years, you’ve managed to find my weaknesses, but those are merely the things that you are aware of.

"Today, not one of you can do a thing to me!"

As he spoke, sequence particles erupted from his entire body.

Lu Yin focused intently at the sight, and his inner universe was unleashed from his chest. It swept through space towards True God.

The man turned to look at Lu Yin. "Dao Monarch Lu, there is a difference in strength when it comes to cultivating sequence particles. I have no need for an overwhelming number like Tai Hong, but do you really believe my sequence particles to be so weak?"

Lu Yin stared at True God. "A sequence base."

True God was impressed. "Clever. Yuan Qi brought the Rivers and Mountains Painting from the Spirit Nidus, and I was inspired by it. I’ve since recultivated my sequence particles. Tai Chu, my new sequence particles are the Law of Dao Convergence."

Lu Yin already knew that Progenitor Chen had recultivated his sequence particles, comprehending a different law of the universe. What Lu Yin was seeing explained why True God held such great admiration for Progenitor Chen; the two men had walked the same path.

“Enough talk.” The Origin Progenitor waved a hand, which sent his four swords slicing at True God.

At the same time, a massive fist appeared behind True God. It belonged to the super giants’ ancestor. He had abandoned his battle with Blackless God in order to launch a sneak attack on True God.

The four swords and the fist touched the Six Paths Reversal Cycle at the same time; one from the front and the other from the back, pincering True God.

He was truly surrounded with no way to escape.

Even so, he was unmoved.

The next moment, the giant’s fist shattered, surrounded by the Origin Progenitor’s four swords.

The super giant howled in agony as his blood splattered across outer space.

The Origin Progenitor was stunned. What had just happened?

Only True God remained calm. He looked over at Lu Yin and said, "This is the Law of Dao Convergence."

Lu Yin was confused. What had just happened?

The giant’s entire right arm had been shattered. If not for the Origin Progenitor’s quick reaction in pulling the swords back in time, more than just the ancient giant’s right arm would have shattered; it would have been his entire body.

The Origin Progenitor stared at True God. "You recultivated your sequence particles?"

During the Heavens Sect era, the Origin Progenitor, True God, Tai Hong, Mister Mu, and Astral Anura had all known each other quite well.

In particular, the Origin Progenitor had been more familiar with True God than anyone else.

After all, they had once fought side by side.

True God’s sequence particles had been incredibly strong, and he had possessed an overwhelming destructive power. He had comprehended a destructive law of the universe, but that had since completely changed.

His law of the universe had changed, and his sequence particles had undergone a transformation, as though his old self had been shed.

For countless years, the Origin Progenitor had suppressed the sequence strings, but True God had built up Aeternus and recultivated his sequence particles.

"Tai Chu, you think too highly of yourself. Do you really believe that, after all these years, I would not have surpassed you?

"If it weren’t for this Six Paths Reversal Cycle, none of you would be my match right now. While I can only protect myself for now, can any of you do anything to me?"

At this moment, True God fully revealed his true arrogance. He was the founder of Aeternus, one of the first humans, and he truly stood at the top of the Tianyuan Megaverse.

A short distance away, a lantern appeared. It was from Blackless God.

The super giants’ ancestor had attacked True God, and Wu Tian had locked onto Blackless God.

The pressure from fighting against Ortusers had forced Blackless God to use True God’s Natural Art, and he had even unleashed his consciousness that was comparable to the power of an Ortuser.

The lantern shattered.

Even Wu Tian was affected by this attack.

True God’s three ultimate techniques did not use sequence particles, though they were similar to comprehension techniques. The attacks were threatening even to Ortusers.

Blackless God hurried over to True God’s side.

"You actually recultivated your sequence particles? Yong Heng, I underestimated you," the Origin Progenitor marveled.

True God let out a long breath. "I myself underestimated Tai Hong. For such an arrogant person, she chose to sacrifice herself in order to restrain me. The time she spent preparing for that… Her Six Paths Reversal Cycle not only cost her her life, but also her entire existence.

"Tai Chu, you cannot kill me. Once I break free from this Six Paths Reversal Cycle, your time will come."

The Origin Progenitor waved his hand, sending his swords after True God. "Do you think that you can overturn reality with mere sequence particles?"
