Chapter 1323: Absolutely Invincible

In the Neoverse, Arch-Elder Zen sighed emotionally. The power of the ancient Progenitors was beyond imagination. They were the source of all power, but how had this child inherited such a power? He had a primeval surname, so could he have come from that place?

Suddenly, the old man’s expression changed—this was not good! If Lu Yin had revealed such a level of strength, then there was no way that the Sixth Mainland’s three Progenitors would allow him to live, especially that Progenitor of Combat. This thought caused Arch-Elder Zen to immediately move out, as he had to ensure Lu Yin’s safety.

Arch-Elder Zen’s thoughts were accurate. At this moment, the Progenitor of Combat’s eyes were filled with a murderous light. The God of Death! That’s the power of the God of Death!

This power should not exist, as it should have been erased from history long ago. And yet, the Fifth Mainland actually had someone who had inherited this lost power. This could not be allowed. Never! Once this child became a Progenitor, who could possibly be his opponent? Not the Sixth Mainland’s three Progenitors, and not even the invincible Progenitor Chen or the Rune Progenitor who had created the Rune Civilizations would be Lu Yin’s opponent.

Since Lu Yin had received the power of the God of Death, it meant that there was a very high probability that he would become a Progenitor in the future. No, he could never be allowed to do so.

The more he thought, the stronger the Progenitor of Combat’s killing intent became.

Both the Progenitor of Bloodlines and the Progenitor of Secret Arts knew what was about to happen, but neither of them did anything to stop it.

The hatred between the Sixth and Fifth Mainlands ran too deep and had existed for far too long. They could allow the Fifth Mainland to have one or two Progenitors to help them fight against those monsters. However, the three powerhouses would never allow a Progenitor to rise in the Fifth Mainland who had the potential to overwhelm them.

If the person who had received the power of the God of Death became a Progenitor, then the consequences would be catastrophic, and the threat facing the Sixth Mainland would no longer be just those monsters.

The Progenitor of Combat wanted to make a move, and he could not stop himself from doing so. His power moved to spread across the Fifth Mainland once more. However, as soon as he began to move, he was stopped by a figure.

At the top of Zenith Mountain, Lu Yin had become everyone’s target, but no one could force him to move even a single step.

He simply stood there and allowed all attacks to approach him. There was the Thirteenth Sword that had shocked the entire universe, all kinds of secret techniques, battle techniques, speed, and more. It seemed that everything was useless against him.

After Lu Yin swept out with another terrible scythe attack, Wu Taibai, Wang Yi, and all of the others were knocked down from the top of the mountain.

At this moment, Lu Yin had finally managed to satisfy his violent impulses, and a hole had appeared in the cloak that hung around his waist. His strength was running out.

Lu Yin knew this, and he turned to stare at Shang Qing with his scythe raised high.

Shang Qing clenched his fists. He was not obsessed with the title of Pinnacle Youth, and he merely hoped that Lu Yin would be able to help him break past his own limits. However, Shang Qing did not harbor much hope anymore, as he was still unable to break through that barrier. Even if Lu Yin forced things to a life-and-death crisis, it would not be enough to force Shang Qing past that barrier.

Helpless, Shang Qing opened his mouth and said, “I give up.”

After his words rang out, Zenith Mountain fell silent, and everyone blankly stared at Lu Yin. Before this final match, who would have guessed that Lu Yin would be the final contender? He was the champion and was incontestably the most powerful youth in all of ZENITH.

At this moment, the entire universe was focused on Lu Yin.

Lu Yin raised his head and let out a long breath. The black energy gradually converged, and the scythe in his right hand slowly dissipated. The white energy on his left arm also disappeared, and the cloud of black energy that had gathered behind him and formed the eyes and chains disappeared as well. Even the cloak around Lu Yin’s waist dissipated.

His hair that had grown out to reach his waist also slowly receded to its original length, and his dark eyes regained their pupils.

Countless people watched as Lu Yin returned to his original appearance. The bleeding wounds lacerating his body were so severe that he trembled and almost collapsed.

Using the death energy had made Lu Yin invincible, but it had not reversed time, and his previous injuries had not disappeared. This included the gash on Lu Yin’s waist that he had received from Shang Qing’s Discipline.

Lu Yin forced his head up and looked at Shang Qing. Lu Yin had to admit that he could not have defeated Shang Qing without using his black and white energy. Without that power, no one would have been Shang Qing’s opponent.

Back in the Mountain and Seas Zone, when the Tri-Yang Technique had been revealed, its power had shocked everyone. At the conclusion of ZENITH, people were exponentially more shocked, but that emotion had been shifted over to Lu Yin.

No matter how difficult an opponent like Shang Qing might have been, the power that Lu Yin had revealed had been too stunning.

Lu Yin had not relied on the power of old Progenitors such as Progenitor Chen or Progenitor Hui. Instead, one person had defeated both Progenitor Chen and Progenitor Hui—no, one person had completely overpowered them both.

The Progenitor realm was the final realm of cultivation. Everyone looked up to the power of the Progenitor realm and believed in the invincibility of the Progenitors from the bottom of their hearts. And yet, Lu Yin had just shattered that belief. He was just too powerful.

Invincibility was a trait that could only be recognized after one became a Progenitor, but Lu Yin had already received such an acknowledgement.

Hundreds of rivers all returned to the sea, and throughout the boundless universe, just how many arrogant elites and talented youths were there? Despite that, everyone’s glory and power had been completely eclipsed by Lu Yin’s.

He had fought with his own strength, himself alone against all of the top experts in ZENITH, and created his legend within the tournament. He had revealed enough strength to be recorded down in the annals of history and become a legend for both the Fifth and Sixth Mainlands.

At this moment, everyone had a feeling that the current era would take the name of Lu, even if Lu Yin had not yet become a Progenitor. He already gave everyone the feeling that he was invincible.

The huge statue trembled as it was carved away by an invisible power. Soon, it took on Lu Yin’s appearance, and Zenith Mountain’s energy surged. All the energy that had fallen down the mountain at the beginning of the competition roared as it rushed upwards from the base of the mountain, finally exploding in the sky where it shone.

Everyone stared up at the statue.

Something moved within Lu Yin’s heart, and he jumped up atop the statue. No one stopped him, as no one qualified to do so.

From here, he looked down upon everyone, all the top experts of his generation that hailed from all parts of the universe. He had surpassed all of them.

An unsuppressable surge of arrogance filled Lu Yin’s chest. Without understanding why, Lu Yin stretched out a hand and took the exact same pose as the mountain, as though he was pressing down upon all of Zenith Mountain with a single hand, holding everyone down.

Down below, the expressions of Shang Qing, Wang Yi, Wu Taibai, Bu Kong, Wen Sansi, and all of the others changed slightly. This was utter suppression. Lu Yin was declaring that he would suppress their era.

Lu Yin’s mouth curled up into a smile, and his battle force instinctively appeared with purple battle force and red lines shrouded his body. He was currently suppressing everything before him and moving to dominate his entire generation. Then, a thin thread of gold suddenly appeared within the red lines.

This golden color had appeared once before when Lu Yin had stepped atop the Night Watch Pagoda and witnessed the same view that the First Nightking had seen.

However, Lu Yin’s achievements had far surpassed those of the First Nightking. Not only did he stand above his peers of the Innerverse and Outerverse, but he had also surpassed his peers from the Cosmic Sea, the Neoverse, the Astral Beast Domain, and even the Sixth Mainland. He had even surpassed historical powerhouses when they had been his age, as he had defeated summons of both Progenitor Chen and Progenitor Hui.

At this moment, that thread of gold could no longer be suppressed, and it quickly spread out to replace the red lines in his battle force.

Lu Yin’s eyes flashed, and he immediately hid his battle force. The people watching merely saw a flash of gold, and they did not understand what had just happened.

However, Wu Taibai’s pupils shrank; had he really just seen that? Impossible!

Wang Yi also stared hard at Lu Yin. He had seen that brief flicker of golden light as well, and he reflexively glanced over at Wu Taibai, who happened to look at him at the same time. The two seemed to share a common suspicion.

As Lu Yin stood on the head of the statue, he channeled his battle force over his palm to take a look at it. It was no longer nine lined battle force, as there were now golden lines in his battle force. His battle force had undergone some sort of transformation.

When Lu Yin had first started cultivating battle force, the Sandmaster had explained that battle force depended on both ambition and stubbornness. Cultivating battle force required one to overcome their limits, reach for the sky, and then tear through it.

The more domineering a person was, the greater their comprehension of battle force would be.

Lu Yin had just surpassed all living creatures, and it had allowed him to unconsciously break through his nine lined battle force to reach a level that he could not even understand. Lu Yin had never seen or heard of anyone in the Fifth Mainland with golden battle force.

Battle force had nothing to do with one’s cultivation. Even a top powerhouse like Yuan Shi who had a power level of more than a million did not necessarily have the arrogance to look down upon all living beings, and it was also possible that such a powerhouse was either unable or unwilling to cultivate battle force.

Everyone had their own path of cultivation that fit them best, and it was even possible for a regular person to unconsciously cultivate battle force.

Lu Yin tended to use the most suitable power at the most suitable time.

People were still watching the screens throughout the universe. The Outerverse had exploded in celebration, and the entire Great Eastern Alliance was cheering. On Earth, in Zhenyuxing, everyone shouted excitedly as they celebrated Lu Yin’s victory.

ZENITH had not been an easy tournament. All of the top finalists had revealed powers that ordinary people could not even understand, but in the end, Lu Yin had still defeated them all.

“Seventh Bro, you’re all grown up!” Ku Wei shouted excitedly. He remembered the bet that they had made on Lu Yin. Back then, Lu Yin had been given ten to one odds of entering the top three, and they had placed multiple 100 million star essence bets on him. Just how much had they just won? Even though Ku Wei came from a wealthy clan, he still felt a bit dazed by such a sum.

Coco, Black, White, Xi Qi, and many others were absolutely thrilled.

The fish kept smacking his fins against Xi Qi’s head. “Look! Lord Fish just gave him some minor pointers, and he immediately became invincible! Hurry up and call down that two-legged beast down! Lord Fish will give him another opportunity to become my ride. Hurry up! “

Xi Qi held her head, as the slapping was hurting her more and more.

Kayze, An Shaohua, and several others stared up with reverence in their eyes. No one knew how far Lu Yin would go in the future, but they were determined to follow him to the end.

Even Yue Xianzi, Sister Leng, and many others looked at Lu Yin with respect in their eyes. From this moment forward, Lu Yin would be a symbol of the Fifth Mainland. No one would have the courage to do anything to him, and the Hall of Honor would do its best to protect both him and his Great Eastern Alliance.

Gu Xiao’er waved his hand in the air. “That’s my brother! Big Brother, come here! Over here!”

Ling Que wiped his forehead. “Forget it. I’ll accept it even if you become my brother-in-law, you can definitely get that woman to submit.”

Outside Zenith Mountain, Wu Da was going crazy as he released his articles and stories. He had been following Lu Yin’s actions in ZENITH from beginning to end. Every attack and move that Lu Yin had made had been recorded and analyzed in detail, so Wu Da was definitely going to become famous from this.

On a certain planet, Xuan Jiu stared at his screen. “Well, it seems that I’ll have to be the Great Yu Empire’s imperial advisor then, haha.”

In the Innerverse, Liu Qianjue and the other masters of the eight great flowzones were still in a stunned daze. Lu Yin had won and become the champion. Who would dare make a move against his Great Eastern Alliance now?

Before ZENITH, who could have imagined that Lu Yin would be the ultimate victor? This felt like something from a fantasy story.

The Innerverse powers had plotted extensively before ZENITH, all of them trying to find a way to deal with Lu Yin without aggravating the powers supporting him. However, they had never even considered that they would have to deal with a Lu Yin who had won ZENITH, though this was also partly because there was no way to deal with such a Lu Yin.

The Hall of Honor would do absolutely everything in its power to protect Lu Yin, and the Great Eastern Alliance would naturally be protected by extension. Anybody who moved against Lu Yin or the Great Eastern Alliance would instantly become an enemy of the Hall of Honor, as Lu Yin was now the most important person in the entire universe for them.

Also, they could not forget that Lu Yin would be given an unimaginable opportunity as a prize for winning ZENITH, and it was supposed to be enough to potentially help him become a Progenitor. No one would dare to move against Lu Yin unless they were guaranteed to completely destroy him, as they could no longer afford to offend him.
