Star Odyssey

Chapter 1079: Ten Arbiters Meeting

After listening to Lu Yin’s words, Nightking Zhenwu’s pupils shrank. “Pitiful? You, a descendant of worthless bugs, think that I’m pitiful?”

He then snarled, “Keep your pity to yourself, Lu Yin. You have no right to pity me—you’re just a bug! Some trash from the Outerverse is not qualified to pity me.

“Kill me if you’re able to. If you don’t, then I’ll definitely destroy everything you’ve ever held dear. I’ll massacre the Great Eastern Alliance, Earth, and everyone you value-”

There was a thump, and Nightking Zhenwu’s mouth went wide as he spat out a mouthful of blood. The rest of his words were buried by Lu Yin’s leg, along with his body.

Lu Yin did not hold back anything at all with this kick, and used a full One Hundred Fifty Stacks to send Nightking Zhenwu on his way to the underworld.

This kick caused Nightking Planet itself to fragment, and a giant fissure tore apart the planet’s surface.

Above the planet, Nightking Dijiang’s gaze grew sharp, and his expression filled with a boundless killing intent as he stared at Lu Yin. The Nightking patriarch’s entire body trembled from rage.

Highsage Leon and Highsage Shenwei exchanged glances. After this kick, if the Nightking Clan was not exterminated, Lu Yin would eventually die, as he had just become mortal enemies with the clan.

This kick had ended an era; Nightking Zhenwu’s era.

Zhuo Daynight went limp, as her body had lost all of its strength.

On Nightking Planet, everyone from the Nightking bloodline froze, and they turned to stare towards where Nightking Zhenwu had been in a daze, as they all felt a bit lost.

In outer space, Qing Longlong, Ling Que, Avery, and the others, including all of the invited guests who had attended the Daynight Feast, were stunned as well. Lu Yin had personally buried the Nightking bloodline’s ultimate hope. He had killed one of the Ten Arbiters, and from this moment onwards, as long as he did not die as well, he would replace Nightking Zhenwu as one of the Ten Arbiters.

Starsibyl’s eyes flickered. She had made a calculation before the Daynight Feast that had stated that this would be the beginning of Nightking Zhenwu’s path to glory. However, no matter what, she had not been able to calculate Nightking Zhenwu’s future past this point. It meant that Nightking Zhenwu would either be able to surpass her divination, or that the person would no longer exist afterwards.

She had previously predicted that the person to defeat Nightking Zhenwu might be neither one of the Ten Arbiters nor some expert from the older generation. However, she had never thought that Lu Yin alone would be able to deal with Nightking Zhenwu. Lu Yin’s strength had completely eclipsed Starsibyl’s expectations, as he was improving far too quickly.

Nightqueen Yanqing had lost all reason, and she charged at Lu Yin with blind rage. Zhanlong Daynight did not stop her. Nightking Zhenwu was already dead, which was something that Zhanlong had never imagined could happen, and he had not had a chance to react.

Lu Yin lightly tapped out with a finger, causing the void to tremble. Nightqueen Yanqing was thrown back by a ferocious force, and she spat out a mouthful of blood as she flew through the air.

Lu Yin looked down and saw that Nightking Zhenwu’s rune lines had completely vanished. He then slowly sat down. At this moment, his clothes were essentially nothing more than tatters, and he sat on a rock, naked, with his head bowed. No one knew what he was thinking.

Starsibyl descended onto Nightking Planet from outer space and approached Lu Yin from behind. She then took out a coat, draped it over Lu Yin’s body, and silently stood behind him.

At this same moment, above the planet, a middle-aged man from the Nightking clan screamed. He willingly endured his opponent’s attacks as he attempted to force his way down to the planet to kill Lu Yin. This man was Nightking Zhenwu and Nightqueen Yanqing’s father, though he was only a Nightking whose power level was at around 200,000. Nightking Zhenwu had been the man’s greatest pride. Although the man himself had never been very capable, Nightking Zhenwu’s mere existence had elevated his father high up within the Nightking clan.

At this moment, the man had nothing left. He hated Lu Yin to the core, and wanted to rip the youth to shreds.

Suddenly, a sword light streaked by and sliced off his shoulders. The middle-aged man wailed as his body was flung into the distance.

A white sword reentered its scabbard. It was being held by a woman with long black hair and large-framed glasses. She had an endearingly young and naive appearance. It was Liu Tianmu.

Lu Yin had stomped Nightking Zhenwu dead with one kick, and Liu Tianmu had appeared to descend onto Nightking Planet.

In another direction, War King Xing Kai’s massive body appeared, and he grinned as he tore through the void and entered Nightking Planet.

Lan Si stepped out, also arriving on Nightking Planet, where he calmly looked at Lu Yin.

White Knight Ling Gong appeared in her armor, and she steadily walked towards Lu Yin.

A fire in the sky flared to form an Undying Bird that then morphed into a man. He was none other than Serati Phoenix.

Wen Sansi landed on the ground with Mira following behind him. He sighed in amazement as he looked at the distant rock where Lu Yin was sitting with a bowed head.

Not too far away from Wen Sansi was a woman who seemed to still be intoxicated from a heavy round of drinking. She was carrying a wine barrel that was taller than the average human as she stumbled her way over.

Even further away, Unseen Light appeared with his eyes still tightly closed. Mu Rong walked behind the Arbiter, and they slowly made their way across the planet.

Behind Lu Yin appeared a young man with long hair and a smile on his lips. He also walked towards Lu Yin. His name was Jin He.

Countless people from the Innerverse and Outerverse were witnessing the appearance of all Ten Arbiters.

Everyone held their breaths and silently watched this scene.

Lu Yin lifted his head and looked around. His lips curled up as he stood.

At this moment, all of the Ten Arbiters had appeared near Lu Yin, and all of them were looking at him.

Lu Yin had stepped into a position that should have belonged to Nightking Zhenwu. Starsibyl had helped the Nightking become the leader of the Ten Arbiters, but Nightking Zhenwu had suddenly been killed, so Lu Yin had taken Zhenwu’s place.

Starsibyl stood behind Lu Yin, observing him. From this day onwards, his status would turn on its head. Even if he had unified the Outerverse, from the perspective of the Innerverse’s various great powers, he had only grasped a limited amount of strength and was not nearly strong enough to match up to the various great powers of the Innerverse.

But on this day, Lu Yin had proven his power to the entire universe.

He had toppled the Daynight clan, held back Blazing Mist Flowzone, and influenced the Hall of Honor. Lu Yin was essentially the person who had directly cut off the Daynight clan’s future, and the situation had reached the point where not even Nightking Dijiang, an overwhelming expert with a power level of more than 800,000, could do much.

Lu Yin had demonstrated his ability to topple any power in the Innerverse.

Through their screens, countless people throughout the universe stared at Lu Yin, witnessing the birth of a peerless powerhouse.

***

In Erudite Flowzone, the Wen patriarch who had been sweeping the grounds withdrew his eyes and sighed. He had thought that the child, Nightking Zhenwu, had been ambitious in his decision to release the Dayking bloodline, and the patriarch had even momentarily felt some admiration for him, a junior, which was unprecedented. However, the outcome had been determined, and that child had tried to toy with human nature in vain before suffering the ultimate consequences of his actions.

The Daynight clan should truly not give birth to any true geniuses, as such a tyrannical clan would not be able to raise a genius with the proper heart and mind. The only way out for the clan was with the Dayking bloodline. What a pity.

***

In Beast Tamers Flowzone, within the Divine Grade Hall, the mountain known as Million laughed maniacally. Although an absolute monster such as Lu Yin had appeared, he had also killed another freak, Nightking Zhenwu. This had been a good show to watch.

***

In the Sword Sect, Liu Qianjue shifted his focus, his expression solemn. Lu Yin was even more terrifying than Nightking Zhenwu, despite both of them being children. If Nightking Zhenwu had truly possessed the resolution to release the Dayking bloodline, then Liu Qianjue would have taken another look at the youth. Unfortunately, he had turned out to be too foolish, and his personality had been too dark. In the end, Lu Yin had proven to be the more capable one.

As long as Lu Yin did not die prematurely, there would come a day when he would wield true power in the universe.

Aside from the two youths, Liu Qianjue was even more focused on the people from Eversky Island and Liu Feng. Liu Feng had actually become an Envoy, and Liu Qianjue somewhat regretted the incident in the past, as Liu Feng had completely severed ties with the Liu family. If he had not done so, then the Sword Sect’s strength would have risen to another level. What a pity.

***

Countless people in all parts of the universe were sighing with sorrow. Some felt that it was a shame that Nightking Zhenwu had perished while others cheered at his demise.

Even people without much vision were able to see that Nightking Zhenwu had been amazingly powerful and that almost no one within the same generation was capable of defeating him. Out of the Ten Arbiters, Zhenwu was considered to be one of the most powerful. Unfortunately, he had gone up against Lu Yin.

The stage that Nightking Zhenwu had built up for himself had instead been inherited by Lu Yin.

There had clearly been people with power levels in the several hundred thousands fighting, but Lu Yin had managed to become the sole protagonist in the entire skirmish.

…

On Nightking Planet, the Ten Arbiters met.

This was something that would be recorded down in history. The Ten Arbiters’ names could not be spoken, and most people did not even know what they looked like. But at this moment, all Ten Arbiters had gathered in one place, revealing themselves to countless people in the Innerverse and the Outerverse, which left everyone a bit nervous. action

These ten youths not only represented the younger generation, but more importantly, they represented the future.

In the future, these ten would be the true elites of the Innerverse, and they would hold influence for countless years.

“Starting today, you will replace Zhenwu and join us as a member of the Universe Youth Council, which is also commonly referred to as the Ten Arbiters Council,” Wen Sansi calmly said with open admiration of Lu Yin.

Behind him, Mira swallowed. She had been the one to take Lu Yin away from Earth. At that time, she had already felt a bit of admiration for Lu Yin. However, on this day, he had climbed to an unimaginable height, which was simply unbelievable. He had surprised her many times already, but she had never been as badly shocked as at this moment, where Lu Yin had actually killed Arbiter Zhenwu.

“You defeated Lan Si and then killed Zhenwu. Bro, you’re definitely ruthless enough,” Xing Kai spoke. His three-meter tall body was exceptionally oppressive, but he openly grinned.

Lu Yin looked at the giant and then at Wen Sansi. “Is it that simple to become one of the Ten Arbiters?”

Ling Gong coldly replied, “Simple? Go and find someone else in the entire universe who can defeat one of the Ten Arbiters.”

“Are you including the Neoverse?” Lu Yin retorted.

Ling Gong snorted, as she was not used to people giving her an attitude like Lu Yin always did.

Lu Yin was very happy, as a huge stone had been removed from his heart.

At that moment, a bucket of wine crashed down from the sky, and Lu Yin caught it. He turned to see the drunk woman, who was very beautiful. She had a rather voluptuous body that was dressed rather scantily, but she was also one of the Ten Arbiters: Liquor Hero.

“Drink, if you’re a man!” Liquor Hero shouted as she pointed at Lu Yin. Her face was flushed, and she was clearly not sober.

Lu Yin laughed, and he opened his mouth to drain the wine bucket before tossing it aside. “How refreshing.”

Liquor Hero laughed. “I admire you! You don’t dilly-dally around like that Nightking Zhenwu fellow. Kid, next time you’re in trouble, give them my name, and I’ll support you. From now on, we’re drinking buddies, haha.”

Liu Tianmu spoke coldly as she adjusted her glasses. “Stop speaking such nonsense.”

She then looked at Lu Yin. “Joining the Ten Arbiters Council means that you are required to carry out certain duties. First, you must join forces with us to deal with that group from the Neoverse.”

Lu Yin was astonished. “You’re intimidated?”

Liu Tianmu frowned. “You speak like you’re asking for a beating.”

Lu Yin choked.

Liu Tianmu continued on in the same cold voice, “The Neoverse has the Hall of Honor, the Cosmic Sect, Gods’ Origin, the Mavis family, Aurora Enterprises, and the Three Dark Hands. With so many top powers, they will want to kick us out first. If we don’t join forces, then we will easily be eliminated.”

Wen Sansi said, “This is about a territorial competition. The Neoverse will absolutely not allow us to get a piece of the action. After all, since ancient times, the Astral Tower has belonged exclusively to the Neoverse. Even if one of us becomes one of the Cosmic Five, the Neoverse might not be willing to accept it.”

“Nightking Zhenwu gained control of the Champions' Stage, which gave him the unique opportunity to receive an inheritance from the Astral Tower, which is something that those people could not change. However, they will definitely do their best to stop the rest of us,” Ling Gong said.

Lu Yin fell deep into thought. It seemed that the heavy pressure of the Neoverse had put the rest of the Arbiters on edge, as even these arrogant youths needed to join forces.
