Chapter 1074: Deathmatch
Everything seemed to have descended into chaos.
However, to the Daynight clan, these events were not enough to be labeled a calamity that would destroy the clan. To them, this situation was merely a bit troublesome.
The top experts of the Daynight clan hid in two places; one was on Nightking Planet, and aside from the dormant Nightking Dijiang, there were also numerous other old monsters with power levels between 300,000 and 400,000. All of these people were currently being kept busy by the pirate underlings of Leon’s Armada. The other place where the Daynight clan’s experts generally stayed was the ancestral grounds, and there had even been a few Envoy realm powerhouses there in the past, but unfortunately, they had all been killed by the Sixth Mainland.
Even so, there were still various elite Enlighters with power levels between 400,000 and 500,000 who stayed in the Daynight clan’s ancestral grounds.
Their ancestral grounds contained a few hidden powerhouses, and any one of them could easily eradicate all of the pirates in Daynight Flowzone.
From the Daynight clan’s perspective, although there were a great number of pirates, they were just some random nobodies.
Beneath the stone plaque in the ancestral grounds, those few ancient beings opened their eyes, and one stood up. “I’ll go and handle this.”
That person was just about to leave when the ancestral grounds’ stone plaque suddenly changed abnormally, and light beams shot up from beneath the ground, sealing off the area.
A person among the elders suddenly opened his eyes. “Protect the sourcebox array protecting the plaque.”
He then suddenly looked at the elder to his right. This person was also protecting the stone plaque, but he opened his eyes and spoke with a voice that was rich with countless life experiences. “The Dayking bloodline should not be extinguished.”
The figure between the two had a cold expression. “You’ve already been graciously accepted into the Nightking bloodline, but you still want to help the Dayking bloodline? You’re asking to die!”
The elder laughed sadly. “Graciously accepted? The Dayking and Nightking bloodlines are the two king clans of the Daynight clan! So then, why can your Nightking bloodline stand above all the rest? Even if I die, I will not allow the Dayking bloodline to be exterminated!”
The figure between the two grew furious, and the sourcebox array protecting the plaque was activated. There was no way for them to leave, as this array had been set up specifically to protect the ancestral grounds’ stone plaque. Thus, when it was active, people could neither enter nor leave, which was frustrating.
The moment the sourcebox array was activated, Hui Daynight had entered the area, and behind him was a woman. She was actually Cool Sis, the current captain of the Great Yu Empire’s Fifth Squadron.
Of the captains, only the elites ranked tenth and above on the Top 100 Rankings had been qualified to receive an invitation to the Daynight Feast and enter Daynight Flowzone.
Hui Daynight had seen that the sourcebox array protecting the plaque was about to activate, and his expression seemed grieved. He gloomily said, “Now!”
Cool Sis stepped forward while accessing her cosmic ring. One android after another appeared and charged towards the ancestral grounds, where they started fighting within the Daynight clan’s ancestral grounds. These androids were the most powerful ones in the Great Yu Empire’s possession, and although they were relatively weak when compared to the members of the Daynight clan, there were many androids, close to four thousand.
Lu Yin had taken out all of the Great Yu Empire’s trump cards, and he had also coordinated with Leon’s Armada in order to create chaos in the entire Daynight clan.
The Daynight clan had never dreamed that, one day, such a calamity would befall them. The situation within the Hall of Honor, the Xun family, the Dire Barbarian Clan, and other outside allies had all been targeted and slowed down. Every region within Daynight Flowzone was busy dealing with attacks from pirates who greatly outnumbered the Daynight clan’s troops, and the clan’s powerhouses in the ancestral grounds had also been trapped. The powerhouses on Nightking Planet were being obstructed, and everything seemed to have happened in an instant.
This was the setup that Lu Yin and Wang Wen had designed to deal with a colossal power from the Innerverse. The various parts of the plan might seem complicated, but in reality, all the numerous powers needed to do was provide a little bit of force, as Leon’s Armada was the true force truly facing off against the Daynight clan.
The Cosmic Sea’s Four Pirate Crews were powers that not even the Hall of Honor wanted to offend, especially Leon’s Armada, which was the foremost of the Four Pirate Crews. Highsage Leon was a ruthless individual who had even forced his way into the Technocracy once. Not only did he have a powerful strength, but he also had an even more terrifying background.
His background was not from the Innerverse, but rather the Neoverse.
No matter how much more powerful the Daynight clan became, they were still just a monster from the Innerverse that could not enter the Neoverse.
After suffering through the Sixth Mainland’s invasion, and in particular, after surviving through the assault on Endless Weave’s border, Lu Yin no longer felt too apprehensive towards the Daynight clan. They were just a powerful clan, and he was bold enough to attempt to overthrow them.
No matter how chaotic Daynight Flowzone became, countless people in the Innerverse completely disregarded the conflicts breaking out everywhere, as they were all utterly focused on Lu Yin.
He was completely fine even after receiving Nightking Zhenwu’s Skybreaker, which left many people in shocked disbelief.
Skybreaker’s reputation surpassed even that of Night’s End, Daybreak, and it was because the First Nightking had used it to raise the Nightking bloodline into a supreme position within the Daynight clan. Skybreaker had once massacred countless experts from the various great powers of the Innerverse, and it had even changed the political landscape in many of the Innerverse’s flowzones. It was a battle technique that could not be countered, as one could only use their spiritual force to desperately attempt to endure the attack. But despite that, Lu Yin had actually managed to withstand it.
Nightking Zhenwu spat out another mouthful of blood, as Lu Yin’s Vacuum Palms had beaten him to the point where he could not even retaliate.
It was at this moment that the rest of the universe finally understood just how powerful Lan Si’s Vacuum Palm was.
When Lan Si had lost to Lu Yin, many people had not been able to truly understand just how powerful this technique was. But now, they were able to see its power more clearly, as even Nightking Zhenwu’s nine lined battle force had crumbled against the onslaught of Lu Yin’s Vacuum Palms. The attacks had shattered nine lined battle force, which was the most powerful level battle force known in the universe.
Lan Si’s face showed his shock, as he was well aware of just how powerful Vacuum Palm was. However, he was also aware that it was not powerful enough to completely penetrate Nightking Zhenwu’s defenses. Lu Yin’s Vacuum Palm was not the same as Lan Si’s, and Lu Yin’s actually seemed to be even stronger.
Nightking Zhenwu’s face flushed a deep scarlet color, and he raised a hand as he screamed out. A double-fletched arrow shot out. Lu Yin clenched his fists in response, still using Vacuum Palm,
Lu Yin crossed through the void, and one of his feet kicked Nightking Zhenwu out of Evernight Square, and on his way out, his body shattered the First Nightking’s statue.
The Nightking clan all shrieked, and a dozen people charged at Lu Yin with many members of the Daynight clan appearing in all directions. They no longer intended to allow Nightking Zhenwu to face Lu Yin on his own.
Tens of thousands of Dayking bloodline cultivators who were originally condemned to be buried suddenly charged forward as one, and they fought against the members of the Nightking bloodline, though a few of them were still restrained by the Sealed Cage Technique. However, a great majority were able to act because they were under Nightking Zhenwu’s control, and at the moment, he did not have the time to restrict them with the Sealed Cage Technique.
The Dayking bloodline had been suppressed for countless years, and at this moment, their despair had exploded forth. It had reached the point where they would either explode in silence or die in silence. The Dayking bloodline had also been one of the king clans of the Daynight clan, and the members of that bloodline would not merely drift along without purpose.
Zhuo Daynight was picked up by a few of the Dayking elders. “Child, you weren’t wrong. Pull yourself together—we’re rebelling.”
“Child, we’re rebelling.”
“Rebelling!”
…
Zhuo Daynight’s eyes refocused, and she blankly stared at the intense battle between Lu Yin and Nightking Zhenwu that was taking place in the distance. The void in the region surrounding Nightking Planet had begun to break apart, and great battles were taking place everywhere.
Her eyes narrowed as her determination solidified. “Rebel!”
During the Daynight Feast, Nightqueen Yanqing and some others had already started attacking the Dayking bloodline members. At this moment, Zhuo Daynight suddenly whirled around. She rose into the sky as her white hair flew about in a flamboyant manner. “Night’s End, Daybreak.”
These words stunned countless hearts, including the members of the Dayking bloodline.
Zhuo Daynight had comprehended Night’s End, Daybreak! This had been kept a secret for so long, and nobody had known about this aside from Lu Yin and Nightking Zhenwu. At this moment, Zhuo had revealed that she possessed this exceptional battle technique in front of the entire universe, and in just an instant, she caused many Nightking experts to fall into a fantasy, including Nightqueen Yanqing.
Zhanlong Daynight was shocked. This was actually Night’s End, Daybreak!
The members of the Dayking bloodline grew unbelievably excited, as they recognized their queen. They shot out, filled with the courage to commit a massacre.
Nightking Planet had devolved into complete chaos.
Nightking Zhenwu was sent flying by Lu Yin, and he crashed into Evernight City, blasting through many buildings as he continuously coughed up blood.
Lu Yin tore through the void. When he emerged, he shouted, “Zhenwu, you’re finished!”
Lu Yin slapped out a hand, his Vacuum Palm beating Nightking Zhenwu even deeper underground. The Nightking went so far that he actually shot through Nightking Planet and emerged on the other side.
Nightking Zhenwu raised his head and coughed up more blood. His body was completely powerless, and he felt like all his bones were about to shatter.
Lu Yin stepped into outer space. He moved past Nightking Zhenwu before striking out again, sending Nightking Zhenwu flying back down to Nightking Planet.
Nightking Zhenwu had no strength to retaliate in any way at all.
He had comprehended Skybreaker, cultivated nine lined battle force, and even inherited the Arrow Progenitor’s battle techniques. Any one of these moves could be considered an ultimate power, but they were all useless against Lu Yin. Lu Yin had cultivated up to this moment, and it felt as if everything that he had grasped had all been in preparation for this day, as he was able to completely counter Nightking Zhenwu.
Was Nightking Zhenwu weak? No one would dare to say such a thing. After all, he was one of the Ten Arbiters, and who could be confident about defending themselves against Skybreaker? Who would dare to claim that they could disregard the Arrow Progenitor’s battle technique, let alone the Heart Seeker secret technique? However, Lu Yin could.
If not for their previous battle in the Innerverse, Lu Yin would not have been able to seize control of the battle this easily as he likely would have rushed into battle. Unfortunately, Nightking Zhenwu had been too arrogant, and he had exposed his secret technique, Heart Seeker, too early.
In the sky above Evernight Square, a black dot grew bigger until it finally crashed into the plaza.
Everyone stared, disappointed. It was Nightking Zhenwu, and he looked incomparably pathetic at this moment.
Lu Yin descended into the square and looked down at Nightking Zhenwu.
Shouts rang out from the Nightking experts who were off in the distance, all of them threatening Lu Yin.
Lu Yin ignored them, only focusing on Nightking Zhenwu. If Lu Yin did not remember wrongly, then back in the Daosource Sect’s ruins, Zhenwu had once used a triple-fletched arrow during his battle against Wu Taibai. However, so far he had only used double-fletched arrows, which meant that Nightking Zhenwu still had not used his full strength yet.
Lu Yin took a deep breath. “What are you waiting for?”
Everyone felt lost, no matter if they were from the Innerverse or the Outerverse. Everyone who was watching the battle was completely confused. Nightking Zhenwu had already been reduced to such a state; could he actually still retaliate?
Nightking Zhenwu lay on the ground. The injuries that he had suffered were severe, which was perfectly normal. Even Lan Si had lost after suffering such injuries. However, Nightking Zhenwu suddenly smiled in a manner that was extremely excited, exceptionally cruel, and yet also incredibly pleased. “Hahaha, hahahahaha…”
Lu Yin’s gaze grew sharp, and he clenched his fists as his heart filled with a sense of unease.
Suddenly, a golden radiance appeared on Nightking Zhenwu’s body, and it formed a manifestation of his own body that then broke open. The next moment, Nightking Zhenwu’s eyes opened wide, and he bent his arms as if he were firing an arrow. This time, it was one of the triple-fletched arrows. When this arrow was released, the void collapsed, and everyone on Nightking Planet felt their hair stand on end. It felt as though this arrow could strike anyone of them and that no one could possibly evade it.
Lu Yin’s pupils shrank. One Hundred Seventy Stacks Vacuum Palm.
There was a thump as the Vacuum Palm shot out at the triple-fletched arrow, and they collided within the void. The extremely powerful Vacuum Palm was pierced through by the triple-fletched arrow, and the arrow continued to race towards Lu Yin. His expression changed, and he quickly used Truesight to weaken the attack while simultaneously using the Yu Secret Art to try to divert it. As a result, he barely managed to get the arrow to brush past him.
The arrow sped into outer space, and wherever it went, the surrounding void was completely shattered. It was impossible to see just how far the arrow had gone.
Everyone was left speechless, and it was as if they had all gone mute. This power absolutely surpassed an attack from an Enlighter with a power level of over 300,000. How had Nightking Zhenwu done it?
Those few elders from the Nightking bloodline who were on Nightking Planet were also overwhelmed, as they were aware that this was not a battle technique of the Daynight clan. It contained a truly terrifying power that not even Skybreaker could compare to.
While everyone was shocked at the strength of this triple-fletched arrow, Lu Yin was the only person still focused on Nightking Zhenwu himself. “Just what is your innate gift?”
Although Nightking Zhenwu had just been in a truly miserable state with all of his clothes torn apart, there was currently no other sign of injury to be seen. He had basically recovered to his peak state.
