Chapter 1113: Contest On The Seabed

Lu Yin casually waved a hand, causing an overpowering force to tear through the void as star energy whistled out and swept through the entire area.

The large man and a few other cultivators were overwhelmed, and they were not even able to run away before they were caught up in the star energy and thrown away.

These people were all outstanding experts, and some of them were Cruisers with the strength of those ranked in the middle of the Top 100 Rankings. However, none of them were able to block even one of Lu Yin’s attacks. The difference between them was just too great.

Lu Yin did not care about these people, and he dashed straight towards the bottom of the sea only to be greeted by a strand of sword light. He raised his hand and flicked a finger, causing the longsword to break. The girl wielding it was dumbstruck. “You-”

Before she could finish speaking, she was thrown aside by Lu Yin. He then looked over and saw a piece of a stone plaque slowly float up from beneath the ground.

Shu Jing and another youth were currently locked in battle, and there were a dozen more cultivators caught up in a chaotic mess. At the moment, the ones closest to the stone plaque were Shu Jing and his opponent.

Behind Lu Yin, Black and White dashed into the whirlpool, cheering as they sped towards the stone plaque.

Lu Yin barked, “Get back!”

However, Black and White were moving far too quickly, and not even Lu Yin could stop them in time. In front of the stone plaque, Shu Jing waved a hand, causing a straight line to slice across the seabed and leave behind a visible trace across the seabed. Black and White were nearly struck by the attack, and they jumped in fright. They glared angrily at Shu Jing, but they no longer had the courage to continue on.

Shu Jing’s opponent took this opportunity to race toward the stone plaque. However, star energy suddenly surged forth and transformed into distinct leaves that bound the man tightly in place. His expression changed, and when he looked to his right, he saw a man with a cold expression. This was the same man who had recently been released from cryostasis that Lu Yin had seen earlier.

“Starswapped Leaf. That’s a technique from Shamrock Enterprises. So you’re Little Leaf King,” the man was shocked.

The cold-faced youth was indeed Little Leaf King, and he had just caught someone. Two leaves fell below Little Leaf King’s feet, and he shot towards the stone plaque at an impressive speed. At the same time, everyone at the bottom of the sea found themselves unable to control their own star energy as the star energy in this area had transformed into leaves, trapping them all.

Lu Yin had also been trapped, and he was also unable to control his star energy, as his star energy had formed into falling leaves trapping him in place. This technique was quite mysterious.

As Lu Yin watched Little Leaf King approach the stone plaque, he noticed a golden light appear above everyone. After that, meteors streaked down, crashing towards everyone on the seafloor, not just Little Leaf King.

Close to Lu Yin, a man cried out, “That’s the Seven Courts’ Hui family’s battle technique: Golden Meteors.”

Bang bang bang…

The seabed was struck by a barrage golden meteors, and Lu Yin was wary of each and every one of them. The power of each meteor was no weaker than Ku Lei’s lightning, so was the person behind this attack the heir of the Hui family?

Little Leaf King repeatedly dodged the shower of golden meteors as he attempted to approach the stone plaque, but the meteors fell at an increasing pace, though each one was just as strong as the previous. Little Leaf King did not want to let even a single one of these attack touch him.

The seabed soon began to boil.

Above the sea, Mu Ziying’s trio exchanged glances. “Those golden meteors have run out, so we can go in now. Charge!”

As Mu Ziying spoke, the three young men shot into the vortex and raced towards the seafloor. At this time, the people already on the seabed were still trapped by Little Leaf King’s technique, but Little Leaf King was also being forced further and further away from the stone plaque.

Mu Ziying and Hua Xiao acted in unison, and they both used the Cosmic Art to envelop their surroundings.

Shu Jing raised a hand and tapped out with a finger. Star energy moved in a straight line and pierced through the void as he launched a direct attack at Little Leaf King.

Little Leaf King tried to dodge, but since he was busy evading the golden meteors, he was unable to dodge in time, and the Linear Movement attack struck him squarely in the shoulder, tearing his clothes apart.

When Little Leaf King was attacked, the falling leaves trapping the crowd all dispersed, and they reformed into star energy.

Lu Yin subconsciously withdrew his star energy, and he instantly used that strength to accelerate himself towards the stone plaque.

The Hui family’s heir similarly withdrew his star energy and dashed forwards.

Mu Ziying was extremely fast, but he was not as close to the plaque as Lu Yin. However, the second true disciple had covered too much area with his Cosmic Art, and the stars suddenly exploded, attacking everyone indiscriminately. Even Black and White were caught up in the attack.

It should be said that Mu Ziying had taken Black and White into consideration with his move. These two were moving very fast, and if either of them were able to grab the stone plaque, then nobody would be able to catch them.

Black and White shrieked as they evaded the attack.

Lu Yin easily avoided the star explosions, and he kicked out with his right leg, unleashing a terrifying gale that sliced across the seabed. This slice was only about a meter above the seafloor, and everyone was targeted by it.

Since others had attacked without any sort of distinction, then he would do the same.

Despite the fact that Lu Yin did not use any star energy in this attack, his physical strength was too overpowering, and the power level of this attack instantly surpassed 200,000, horrifying many, and they immediately squatted down. Even Little Leaf King, the Hui family’s heir, and Shu Jing completely disregarded their dignity as the ducked down under the attack.

Mu Ziying and the two with him did not even need to be mentioned, as they had squatted down the moment they saw Lu Yin raise his leg.

This slice sped across the seabed and tore through the void, leaving numerous spatial cracks in its wake.

As people waited for the slash to pass by, they all stared at Lu Yin in horror; this power was simply too terrifying.

Little Leaf King focused intently on Lu Yin, as this person’s physical strength was overwhelming.

After witnessing the gale released by a simple sweep of Lu Yin’s leg, everyone else was rendered speechless. It was at this moment that the stone plaque completely emerged.

He firmly dashed towards the plaque and sped past Little Leaf King, who reflexively used Starswapped Leaf, only to discover that there was no star energy coming from Lu Yin’s body.

Shu Jing tapped out with a finger, unleashing another straight line. However, nine lined battle force appeared on Lu Yin’s palm as he simply slapped down and shattered the attack. At the same time, a massive wind palm whistled by, causing the water to surge towards the Hui family heir.

The heir only felt an unstoppable force pushing him over as he was forced 100 meters back. He raised a hand in response, prompting another shower of golden meteors to crash down once again, all of them aimed at Lu Yin this time.

Lu Yin did not evade this attack. Instead, he watched, and right when the golden meteors were about to strike, he waved a hand and used the Yu Secret Art. The meteors were redirected, and they suddenly crashed towards the Hui family heir.

The Hui family heir’s pupils shrank. “The Yu Secret Art?”

There was an explosion as the golden meteors struck the seabed and raised a massive wave of dust that obstructed everyone’s vision.

Mu Ziying had been racing toward the stone plaque, but he was also caught up by the unexpected golden meteor attack, and he had to pause for a moment before moving back.

Lu Yin had simply used the Yu Secret Art to redirect the golden meteors, leaving the region in front of himself completely empty except for the stone plaque. He effortlessly shot through the void and pressed a hand against the plaque before grabbing it and placing it behind himself.

Nobody was willing to let Lu Yin take the plaque, and they all looked at him for a moment before attacking in unison.

Shu Jing’s Linear Movement.

The Hui family heir’s golden meteors.

Little Leaf King’s Starswapped Leaf.

Mu Ziying’s Cosmic Palm.

There were also various attacks from the other cultivators present, and they all fell upon Lu Yin at the same time.

Lu Yin’s gaze trembled, and 520 stars revolved around his body as his nine lined battle force shot into the sky and enveloped each and every star before finally exploding.

When the 520 stars appeared, Mu Ziying, Hua Xiao, and Yao Ji were all struck dumb.

When Lu Yin’s stars exploded, the seabed erupted, and the tremendous shockwave even shot past the surface of the sea. Multiple fountains appeared and rose into the sky.

Quite a few cultivators above the sea started evading these eruptions, and they were overwhelmed by the show of force. They were simply thrilled that they had not taken part in the undersea conflict.

Shu Jing, the Hui family heir, Little Leaf King, and the others were all caught up in Lu Yin’s attack, as he had paid special attention to them. Little Leaf King and Shu Jing were both beaten to a pulp, and the Hui family heir was the only one fine. He had wanted to take advantage of the opportunity when Lu Yin was using the Cosmic Art to snatch the stone plaque, but the Cosmic Art was merely one of Lu Yin’s attack methods—he still had something even more absurd.

Just as Lu Yin was about to act against the Hui family heir, Black and White dashed past him, looking like human meteorites that shot through the battlefield. They moved far too quickly, and they struck both of the Hui heir’s shoulders at the same time, sending him flying away. After landing, his shoulders were still numb, and he could not even raise his arms.

Lu Yin was astonished but not entirely surprised. Since Eversky Island had dared to allow Black and White to participate in the Astral Tower contest, it showed their confidence in these two. While the twins might look pitiful, they had been able to repeatedly escape from Ku Lei, which was not an easy task. Also, they had a combined battle technique in their Black White Combo that had even stunned Lu Yin.

“That hurt so freaking bad! Black, that guy’s shoulders are so hard!” White complained.

Black was also gritting her teeth and enduring her pain, and the two brats immediately turned around and directed pitiful stares at Lu Yin, both of them looking as if they were about to cry.

Lu Yin was helpless. “Alright, thank you, girls.”

The two immediately smiled through their tears.

The Hui family heir, Shu Jing, and Little Leaf King were the most powerful opponents within the area, but even they had been beaten back. The other nearby people did not even qualify to resist.

Mu Ziying’s trio did not act, as they were rather cautious of Lu Yin.

“Everyone, I’ve taken the object, so you can all stop now,” Lu Yin said as his gaze swept across everyone gathered. After uniting the whole Outerverse and successively defeating Lan Si and Nightking Zhenwu, Lu Yin’s temperament had changed quite significantly. Right now, he gave off a feeling of being truly peerless, which was something that would only appear in those who could stand at the true peak of the universe in the future.

Shu Jing and the others looked at each other. They were reluctant, but Lu Yin had revealed an overwhelming strength. Though one person could overpower them all, they could still escape and they also had their own followers.

There were many inheritances throughout the Mountains and Seas Zone, so there was no need to enter an all-out fight for just one. If they did, then once something else appeared in another place, they would be at a disadvantage.

“Brother Lu, congratulations. This stone plaque is yours. However, you’ll need to be careful now that you’re holding onto it,” Shu Jing calmly said before casually leaving the seabed.

Little Leaf King never spoke a word, and he was exceptionally cold.

The Hui family heir looked at Lu Yin and asked, “Where is the Yu family?”

Lu Yin and the young man exchanged glances. “They can be thought of as being in seclusion for the moment, as they don’t participate in outside affairs.”

The Hui family heir frowned. “The Seven Courts’ Yu family can’t hide. You’re Lu Yin?”

“That’s right.”

“I’ve heard of you before. When the Sixth Mainland invaded, everyone said that you died at Nightking Zhenwu’s hands. Actually back then, I also wanted to check Nightking Zhenwu’s strength,” he said.

Lu Yin shrugged. “Too late. I already killed him.”

The Hui family heir went silent and turned to leave.

Lu Yin calmly watched him go.

“Seventh Bro, that guy’s too rude! You and his ancestor practically became sworn brothers, so when he sees you, he should call you Ancestor Lu, hahaha!” The Ghost Monkey cackled.

Lu Yin pursed his lips. What the monkey had said was somewhat accurate, as Brother Hui Kong was definitely one of the Hui family’s ancestors. In fact, this Hui family heir was mostly likely the old man’s junior by countless generations.

The Hui family heir had been the only one who had not been pushed back by Lu Yin’s Cosmic Art, and he had probably used a secret technique, the Hui Secret Art, to block the Cosmic Art. Lu Yin wondered how well the heir could utilize the secret technique.

Little Leaf King appeared at the sea’s surface.

Off in the distance, Qing Longlong looked down at the seabed. She had not gone down to compete, as she was well aware of her own abilities. Thus, she did not try to challenge anyone, unlike Tai Yuanjun.

In the Mountain and Seas Zone inheritance region, there were many participants who were much stronger than Qing Longlong. She had come here to test her luck, and she had no desire to compete for anything truly valuable in this place, as she felt that she did not have the strength to do so.

Even further away, the stutterer licked his lips and anxiously looked down at the seabed, waiting for Lu Yin to emerge. As long as Lu Yin came back up, the stutterer had already made up his mind to follow Lu Yin. As his master had said, there would be meat if he followed Lu Yin.
