Star Odyssey

Chapter 1657: War Of Destruction

“Madam Hong,” Lu Yin instantly answered. Madam Hong had wanted to use Lu Yin to deal with Master Qing Hua, so Lu Yin naturally had no intention of playing nice. He had never expected the Sixth Mainland to actually leave five weaves for the Great Eastern Alliance; those negotiations had merely been a part of his plan for dealing with Madam Hong.

Since the Sixth Mainland had its own internal conflicts, Lu Yin wanted to make sure that their conflicts continued. He did not want to face a united Sixth Mainland.

“She’s just a little girl. She wouldn’t dare do such a thing, so it was probably Mr. Lifeview’s idea. However, I don’t really want to deal with them,” Master Qing Hua commented in a helpless manner. He turned back to Lu Yin. “So, what do you want to do now? Did you just want to lure me out here? Or is there something that you want from me?”

Lu Yin put up two fingers. “I have two conditions. One: can you leave here in half a month? Two: please take the powerhouses from the Arrow Sect who are sealing off the Neo-Vestige Sect away.”

Master Qing Hua’s brows rose. “Is that all?”

Elder Jiu Shen also turned to stare at Lu Yin in shock. The elder had been ready to stop Lu Yin as soon as he proposed conditions that were too ridiculous. Elder Jiu Shen was the second strongest expert in the Cosmic Sect, and he had no desire to help Lu Yin fight against a powerhouse like Master Qing Hua.

However, the elder had never expected Lu Yin’s conditions to be so simple.

Master Qing Hua laughed. “Fine, I’ll stay here for half a month and only leave after that. As for Man Li, I don’t even know how his master became an Empyrean Imprinter.”

“Alright, thank you, Senior. The Sixth Mainland’s issues are none of my business, but to avoid any possible retaliation, I hope that you won’t reveal that I was the one who told you about this matter. I would be extremely grateful if you did that,” Lu Yin spoke solemnly as he pushed the Greenmen Duo towards Master Qing Hua.

Master Qing Hua did not move and simply watched as the Greenmen Duo fell to the ground.

Lu Yin turned to Elder Jiu Shen. “Senior, are you satisfied with this?”

He had never held any expectations that Elder Jiu Shen would listen to him, as this man was not like Liu Ye and Fei Hua.

Elder Jiu Shen grunted. “Not bad.”

“Could I also trouble you to send me somewhere?” Lu Yin asked.

Elder Jiu Shen rolled his eyes. “No, I’m returning to the Cosmic Sect. Who do you think I am? Liu Ye and Fei Hua?”

“Of course not. I’m hoping to visit somewhere that’s actually on your way. Senior, could you please take me to Daynight Flowzone?”

…

Ever since the Great Eastern Alliance had trashed Daynight Flowzone during Lu Yin’s battle against Nightking Zhenwu, the Daynight clan had sealed the weave off, and no one entered or left Daynight Flowzone since, not even people from Nightking Planet. The Nightking clan had also disappeared from the universe, and nobody had seen any of the Nightking clan members in a long time.

The Daynight clan had once been extremely powerful, and the clan had possessed multiple Envoys. However, at the moment, their only remaining Envoy was Nightking Dijiang.

Many members of the Daynight clan sat around the Daynight clan’s ancestral tablet to gain inheritances. Even though these people appeared calm, they were actually very anxious, as they had been trapped in this place for a long time.

“How’s everything going with the Sword Sect?” someone from the Daynight clan quietly asked.

A pretty girl peeked at her gadget and replied, “Nothing so far.”

“I thought that people were claiming that Lu Yin asked one of the Sixth Mainland’s Empyrean Imprinters to deal with the Sword Sect. Why hasn’t anything happened yet?”

A man softly replied, “I heard that the Sword Sect has sent their elite disciples away, including Liu Tianmu, Liu Shaoqiu, and Li Zimo, but nobody knows where they went.”

“The Sword Sect is too unlucky! After our clan sealed itself off, they immediately leaped forward and assumed that they would be able to take control pf the Innerverse. What a dumb move! Still, I didn’t expect Lu Yin to actually cooperate with anyone from the Sixth Mainland.”

“Hmph! He’s been blinded by power. Just wait for it; after he destroys the Sword Sect with that Empyrean Imprinter, he will be ruined! Everyone will attack him as soon as they have concrete evidence, and then we’ll be able to leave.”

“Our clan didn’t seal ourselves off because of Lu Yin! Don’t spout nonsense!” Nightking Gu bellowed coldly.

The people who had been talking immediately stopped talking, and no one dared to continue the conversation.

Nightqueen Yanqing was sitting in a corner, solemnly looking up at the name that sat at the highest point on the ancestral tablet. How long would she need to catch up to that person? She could not see any hope.

She recalled the time when they had both been students of the Astral Combat Academy. At that time, that person had still been just an average cultivator, but now, even the entire Sword Sect was scared of him.

Nightking Yuanjing was also on Nightking Planet. He kept staring at a star chart of the Astral Beast Domain. Ever since Lu Yin had revealed that the Third Nightking was trapped in the Profound Void Realm, the Daynight clan had sent out many people to explore that particular area in hopes of rescuing the Third Nightking. As soon as he was rescued, the Daynight clan would be able to change their circumstances, as Lu Yin would no longer be able to threaten them.

However, the elder still had not found any way to save the Third Nightking.

He ground his teeth at the thought of Lu Yin. If Nightking Yuanjing had known that the situation would turn out like this, he would have killed that youth at the very beginning. The elder had thought that he was the one controlling Lu Yin’s fate only to ultimately realize that he had been tricked by the child.

Nightqueen Qiuyu had returned from Ironblood Weave and was also cultivating on Nightking Planet.

The entire Daynight clan was very quiet, and nobody was even aware that Nightking Dijiang had left for the war in the Cosmic Sea. action

The Daynight clan had never been quiet before, but this silent solitude had lasted for many, many years. Some people had become used to the clan’s behavior, but others had not. Lu Yin was one of those people who had never accepted the Daynight clan’s behavior.

Ever since he started cultivating, he had been surrounded by the Daynight clan, be it in the Astral Combat Academy, the Starfall Sea, Planet Pyrolyte, or the Cosmic Sea. His conflicts with the Daynight clan had never ended, and it was time for Lu Yin to finally settle this matter.

Lu Yin stood in outer space between Nightking Planet and the clan’s ancestral grounds. He raised a hand. “Destroy the Daynight clan.”

Space shattered as the Lu Elite Troops and the colossal giants simultaneously emerged.

Chen Huang roared and lifted his right fist. He punched, his fist covered with nine lined battle force as he aimed at the Daynight clan’s ancestral grounds.

The giant’s roar was like a battle drum.

Nightking Dijiang’s eyes snapped open, and his expression instantly changed.

The clan’s disciples all looked up and saw an attack descending upon them that was supported by nine lined battle force. It looked like doomsday had come for them.

“How dare you!” Nightking Dijiang blocked the attack and stepped into space, only to see Lu Yin with the colossal giants and the Lu Elite Troops standing behind him.

Every member of the Lu Elite Troops and all the giants were able to freely travel through outer space.

Not even the Daynight clan had possessed so many powerhouses at their peak.

Nightking Dijiang was completely stunned. “Lu Yin, what are you doing?”

Lu Yin turned to face Nightking Dijiang. “You went to fight in the war in the Cosmic Sea, and that means that there will no longer be any Nightkings left in this universe.”

Liu Ye and Fei Hua both appeared, and together, they attacked Nightking Dijiang.

Nightking Dijiang was furious. “How dare you! Do you really believe that you can destroy us? You’re too naive! Take your people away and leave, Lu Yin!’

Lu Yin raised his hand and summoned the Champions’ Stage. “With my name, I summon a champion.”

Cang Zhou appeared with black chains of death energy circling his body.

Cang Zhou had been an Envoy, and Lu Yin had to use stellular energy to summon the man. However, Lu Yin only had star energy, which meant that it should have been impossible for him to summon Cang Zhou. Despite that limitation, he had managed to use death energy as a replacement for stellular energy to forcibly summon Cang Zhou.

Lu Yin had not actually expected to succeed with the attempt, as he had just been giving it a try. His star energy was affected by the suppression of Envoys, but the death energy within his body surged straight into the Champions’ Stage and summoned Cang Zhou.

Nightking Dijiang exclaimed in disbelief, “The Lu family’s Champions’ Stage?”

Lu Yin looked up; how did the Daynight patriarch know about that?

Liu Ye and Fei Hua were similarly astonished. The Champions’ Stage was the Lu family’s characteristic power that had allowed them to dominate the Perennial World and force the four ruling powers to remain in the Middle Realm.

Chen Huang and the others showed no trace of shock, as none of them understood just what the Champions’ Stage represented. Simply seeing it was not able to convey just how powerful this innate gift truly was.

“You’re from the Lu family!” Nightking Dijiang was incredulous as he stared at Lu Yin.

“Seniors Liu Ye and Fei Hua, thank you,” Lu Yin said. Cang Zhou rushed at Nightking Dijiang at the same time that Liu Ye and Fei Hua attacked.

Liu Ye and Fei Hua were able to stand up to experts with power levels of about 900,000 when they worked together, and they could defeat someone with a power level of about 800,000. Nightking Dijiang had a power level of around 800,000, but Liu Ye and Fei Hua would struggle due to his powerful spiritual force. On the other hand, the summoned Cang Zhou could completely ignore spiritual force as Lu Yin’s champion was not alive. A summoned champion could not be affected by spiritual force.

The three Envoys with power levels exceeding 700,000 managed to completely lock down Nightking Dijiang.

Lu Yin’s reserves of death energy were being rapidly depleted, and he waved a hand to order the Lu Elite Troops and the giants to charge at Nightking Planet and the ancestral grounds.

This was the Daynight clan’s apocalypse.

Chen Huang threw out another punch, but this time, Nightking Dijiang was not able to block it. An attack with nine lined battle force struck the Daynight clan’s ancestral grounds as the stone tablet shook and collapsed.

Nightqueen Yanqing and the other clan members turned pale and could only watch on in despair.

“Stop!” The two Enlighters standing guard over the tablet, Nightking Wei and Nightking You, both attacked Chen Huang.

The giant raised a hand, and everything was crushed when it struck the ground.

Puff!

The two powerhouses from the Daynight clan spat out blood and died.

Nightking Gu leaped up with the other clan members, and they charged at Chen Huang.

“Stop! This is the Daynight clan’s ancestral grounds!”

“What did the Daynight clan do? Why must we suffer like this?”

“Stop! The tablet cannot collapse! The Daynight clan will never be defeated!”

…

Ku Wei leaped down from Chen Huang’s shoulder. “Let me teach you how to behave.”

He used Finger Tap, and multiple silhouettes appeared.

Ku Wei had previously been comparable to Nightking Gu, or possibly even a bit weaker. However, at this moment, Ku Wei was strong enough to fight against people like Liu Tianmu. This meant that Nightking Gu was no longer Ku Wei’s opponent.

Nightking Gu did not even bother retaliating, so Ku Wei’s attack easily pierced through the Nightking’s shoulder. Meanwhile, Nightqueen Yanqing’s pupil turned purple as she tried to petrify Ku Wei. However, the moment Ku Wei’s finger struck out, she no longer had any desire to use her innate gift, and she instead quickly retreated and collapsed after the attack landed.

This attack silenced everyone from the Daynight clan.
